Transcript
- 0:20Ah, it's Deprogram, the podcast where we try to get you into a
- 0:24band. That's right, we've done all the
- 0:26work for you. All you have to do is press play
- 0:28and listen. My name is Justin and you can
- 0:31call me band curious because I am indeed curious about bands.
- 0:36And what that normally means is a conversation would be
- 0:38happening about a band or artist and I'd get a panel of people
- 0:43together, we would talk about the band, and then we would put
- 0:46together a top 10 starter kit list for you to get into said
- 0:49band. It's part game show, part
- 0:51argument, part discussion. It's a lot of fun.
- 0:55And if you haven't used our our show to get into a band, I
- 1:01highly recommend you do so. But that's what we would
- 1:04normally do on the show. That is our Thursday episodes.
- 1:06And this week it will be Avril Lavigne.
- 1:08So if that is something you'd be interested, you know, hit
- 1:12subscribe and, and on Thursday, download our Avril Lavigne
- 1:16episode and give it, give us a shot.
- 1:18But today is an important one because today it's a letter to
- 1:21Peter. I think it's technically our our
- 1:24second official letter to Peter last week was an unofficial one
- 1:29because it kind of tied with my earworm.
- 1:31Wednesday I did hear from Lou, left a comment on on my first
- 1:39one and then Aaron reached out and said that she appreciated
- 1:44it. It helped me out a lot to do it.
- 1:46So it is something that is going to be in rotation letter to
- 1:51Peter every so often when it comes up.
- 1:54If there's something I wanted to talk to him about, I'm going to
- 1:57use my microphone to talk to Peter.
- 1:59You know, maybe eventually I'll, I'll leave it for myself.
- 2:02But in the meantime, if it helps anybody else to be able to hear
- 2:06these things, then then yeah, I'm going to continue to do it
- 2:09because it's if I if, if, if it's helping me and helping
- 2:14anybody else, then to me, that's, that's all I needed to
- 2:16hear. So this last weekend, as we
- 2:22noted, and I'm going to direct this at Peter, but we came to
- 2:26celebrate you, man. We finally made the trip down to
- 2:30Orlando together. Jenny, Scott and myself traveled
- 2:33to Orlando and boy oh boy, did you supply us with some
- 2:36adventures. First of all, we learned about
- 2:38your lovely city, that the OBT is not somewhere where you
- 2:42really want to be staying. And we couldn't help but think
- 2:47that that was a joke that you played on us, like helping us
- 2:52find the the motel or the hotel that we stayed at.
- 2:56And because it was cheap. And sometimes it's cheap because
- 3:00for reasons, but I also think that it was cheap because you
- 3:03thought it would be funny that we stayed there.
- 3:07So that was the the first thing. Your city is lovely, though.
- 3:12We did get to hang with John and Val, and that was great.
- 3:16I got to meet some dogs and pet some dogs.
- 3:20I'm sure you knew them, but I didn't be before this.
- 3:24So I get to pet those dogs and it was awesome.
- 3:30We went, I forget Apopka Lake I think was what it was called,
- 3:35has like a nature drive. And you know, as you know, when
- 3:42we used to play Red Dead online, you know, part of what we would
- 3:46do is, is chasing the Gators. So we were in Gator Country, had
- 3:51to go see Gators. So we went to go see Gators.
- 3:56We actually saw a lot of them and.
- 4:00It was. It's kind of funny seeing a
- 4:04Gator up close in what amounts to its natural habitat.
- 4:10Was it was it was neat. And I just think back to like
- 4:14how many times we would like tie people up in Red Dead and and
- 4:18toss them to the Gators, hoping that they would eat them.
- 4:21What is wrong with us? But yeah, that was something we
- 4:23would do. And so since we are in Gator
- 4:26Country, we had to go see the Gators.
- 4:30We went to your celebration of life and I got to meet a lot of
- 4:38your, your friends who, you know, I'm jealous of in the
- 4:42sense that they got to like hang, hang with you.
- 4:45They got to be in your presence. And, you know, seeing all these
- 4:50pictures of, of your friends with you and seeing pictures of,
- 4:55of you as a young lad and getting to hug a lot of your
- 5:00friends and Aaron and Nathan, they were lovely.
- 5:03I got to, I got to hug them and Nathan told me about the Local H
- 5:08story where you guys went to see Local H and he said hi to Scott
- 5:13and Scott was going up on stage and he said don't do that,
- 5:16you're embarrassing, which was awesome.
- 5:21I wore my Local H shirt and a couple people noted that that
- 5:26was the appropriate choice. I think most people, it may have
- 5:29gone over their heads, but that's OK.
- 5:34We got to meet Abel and. He wasn't.
- 5:38What a lovely, what a lovely. Soul.
- 5:41He It was hard for. Him to.
- 5:42Keep it together. But he had so.
- 5:45Many. Kind words to say, I.
- 5:50Miss you? Bud And it was great being in
- 5:55this place with so many people who loved you.
- 5:59And I was talking to Aaron and she told me how you had
- 6:04sometimes had problems realizing how loved you were.
- 6:09And we both said, would you look at this, man?
- 6:14You seen this? We loved you so much, man.
- 6:19And we all miss you. But we'll talk to you soon, OK?
- 6:25Man, I love you and sorry I couldn't keep it together, but
- 6:34it was great being in your town. It was great getting to talk
- 6:38with people who knew you well and all your different families.
