- 1:49SPEAKER_01: Big 12.
- 1:50SPEAKER_01: The Big 12.
- 1:51SPEAKER_01: What a amazing last few NFL playoff games that we've had.
- 2:00SPEAKER_01: This has been the best football that I've seen in a long time.
- 2:03SPEAKER_02: Especially, yeah.
- 2:04SPEAKER_02: It's been really great.
- 2:06SPEAKER_02: It's both time.
- 2:07SPEAKER_01: Yeah, I I agree.
- 2:08SPEAKER_01: I mean, because well, maybe obviously it was COVID and everything kind of screwed everything up, but um, even some of the football games during the season, I mean, it was just like hard to watch.
- 2:18SPEAKER_02: Yeah.
- 2:18SPEAKER_01: You know.
- 2:19SPEAKER_01: But when you got down to the final, I don't know, eight teams, the I mean the playoffs have been the best part of the season.
- 2:27SPEAKER_01: Nail biters, man.
- 2:28SPEAKER_01: All of them come right down to the wire on every single one of them.
- 2:31SPEAKER_01: And uh congratulations to the Cincinnati Bengals, who will be going to the Super Bowl.
- 2:36SPEAKER_02: Yep.
- 2:36SPEAKER_01: First time since 1988.
- 2:38SPEAKER_01: Yep.
- 2:38SPEAKER_01: And when they played the 49ers.
- 2:40SPEAKER_01: Yes.
- 2:42SPEAKER_02: I I love my favorite story from that Super Bowl was when uh they they were I think they were on the seven-yard line.
- 2:49SPEAKER_02: The 49ers are on the seven-yard line.
- 2:52SPEAKER_02: And Joe Montana walks up the huddle, and before he gets to the huddle, he looks up in the stands and he sees the actor John Candy.
- 2:58SPEAKER_02: So he gets into the huddle and he's like, he's he's he's talking to the guy.
- 3:01SPEAKER_02: And you can actually see they have footage of this.
- 3:03SPEAKER_02: He's like, hey, you guys see John Candy?
- 3:08SPEAKER_02: He loosens the and then they go 93 yards.
- 3:11SPEAKER_01: Do you think he did that on purpose?
- 3:13SPEAKER_01: To take their mind off what?
- 3:14SPEAKER_02: Probably probably just to be like, hey, let's chill, let's get that.
- 3:17SPEAKER_02: You know, because they were down, you know, and you know, yeah.
- 3:20SPEAKER_02: Turns out, you know, he did a little short slant to John Taylor and bam.
- 3:24SPEAKER_01: Yep.
- 3:24SPEAKER_02: Won the Super Bowl.
- 3:25SPEAKER_01: So and uh speaking of the Niners.
- 3:28SPEAKER_02: Hey, we just don't have to deal with Patrick Mahomes' girlfriend and brother.
- 3:32SPEAKER_01: Yep.
- 3:32SPEAKER_02: My God, two of the most annoying people on the planet.
- 3:35SPEAKER_02: I agree.
- 3:35SPEAKER_02: And this is a planet that includes you know Joe Biden.
- 3:38SPEAKER_02: Right.
- 3:38SPEAKER_02: You know what I mean?
- 3:40SPEAKER_02: Yes.
- 3:40SPEAKER_02: I mean, I mean, this these those two people are so freaking annoying bull of themselves.
- 3:47SPEAKER_01: As much as I like I feel bad for Patrick.
- 3:50SPEAKER_01: Well, the thing is, as I was gonna say, as much as I like Patrick Mahomes football playing, and I don't really uh you know, he kind of annoys me as well a little bit.
- 3:58SPEAKER_02: Yeah, but he sounds like Kermit the Frog.
- 3:59SPEAKER_02: He kind of cracks me up every single time.
- 4:02SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
- 4:02SPEAKER_01: Um, but yeah, so speaking of 49ers, um our Niners are out.
- 4:07SPEAKER_01: Of course, they lost to the LA Rams.
- 4:09SPEAKER_02: It's Jimmy G.
- 4:10SPEAKER_02: He he he just he Do you think he's gonna be there next year?
- 4:13SPEAKER_01: Probably.
- 4:14SPEAKER_01: You think so?
- 4:15SPEAKER_02: I mean, who else is there?
- 4:16SPEAKER_02: There really isn't any anybody upcoming that's you know.
- 4:20SPEAKER_02: I mean, I mean he's not a bad quarterback, he just can't close the deal.
- 4:24SPEAKER_02: Right.
- 4:24SPEAKER_02: You know, I don't know how he ever got that Aaron Andrews.
- 4:27SPEAKER_02: Didn't he like hit on her or something like that?
- 4:29SPEAKER_01: Is he with Aaron Andrews?
- 4:30SPEAKER_01: I have no idea.
- 4:31SPEAKER_01: I don't know either.
- 4:32SPEAKER_02: He's a good-looking kid, but he ain't that bright.
- 4:33SPEAKER_02: Yeah, you know, so um I mean Tom Brady won all the games for him, so you know.
- 4:38SPEAKER_01: So who are you booking for in the Super Bowl?
- 4:40SPEAKER_02: Uh sentimental, it's uh the Bengals.
- 4:44SPEAKER_02: Yeah.
- 4:44SPEAKER_02: But uh reality, it's gonna be the Rams.
- 4:47SPEAKER_01: You think so?
- 4:48SPEAKER_01: I think so.
- 4:48SPEAKER_02: I I I think they're just the better team.
- 4:50SPEAKER_01: I didn't re I I haven't been paying attention to the Bengals during the during the season.
- 4:54SPEAKER_02: Well, because nobody does.
- 4:55SPEAKER_02: It's the Bengals.
- 4:55SPEAKER_01: Right.
- 4:56SPEAKER_02: But just so used to them not being around.
- 4:58SPEAKER_01: Joe Burrow seems like a good kid.
- 5:00SPEAKER_02: He seems like he does seem like a pretty kid.
- 5:02SPEAKER_01: He's like the underdog.
- 5:03SPEAKER_02: He showed it up to the game yesterday looking like the rock.
- 5:06SPEAKER_02: Did you see that?
- 5:07SPEAKER_02: No, I didn't.
- 5:08SPEAKER_02: The black turtleneck with the the ice and it was pretty funny.
- 5:13SPEAKER_02: I don't know if he did it as like a tribute or just this is the way I dress or whatever, but I was just like, really, dude?
- 5:19SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
- 5:20SPEAKER_01: No, I missed that.
- 5:21SPEAKER_01: Uh I think it was probably a joke.
- 5:22SPEAKER_01: It had to be a joke.
- 5:23SPEAKER_02: I hope so.
- 5:24SPEAKER_02: I was just having fun with it.
- 5:26SPEAKER_01: But he is the underdog, so I'll probably be rooting for for the Bengals as well.
- 5:29SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
- 5:30SPEAKER_01: Um and then the other big NFL news, which has not been confirmed, has it?
- 5:35SPEAKER_01: No.
- 5:36SPEAKER_01: It's unsubstantiated rumors, according to his dad.
- 5:39SPEAKER_02: Yeah.
- 5:40SPEAKER_01: Is is that the goat, Tom Brady, is retiring.
- 5:42SPEAKER_02: Yeah.
- 5:43SPEAKER_01: I I don't know if I believe it.
- 5:45SPEAKER_02: I don't think so.
- 5:45SPEAKER_01: I think he's every outlet reported it.
- 5:47SPEAKER_01: ESPN reported it.
- 5:48SPEAKER_02: Yeah, everybody was like, everybody jumped on it.
- 5:50SPEAKER_02: And it was like, oh, Tom Brady's retiring, Tom Brady's retiring, and then Tom Brady's like, no, I'm not.
- 5:54SPEAKER_02: Not yet.
- 5:55SPEAKER_02: Did he say that?
- 5:55SPEAKER_02: I don't think so.
- 5:56SPEAKER_02: Yeah, I don't think so.
- 5:57SPEAKER_02: I think he's just like, I'm I'm still in discussions with the Buccaneers, and you know, you know.
- 6:02SPEAKER_02: And then his dad's like, I haven't heard about this.
- 6:03SPEAKER_02: You know, I'm like, well, that's probably not true.
- 6:06SPEAKER_02: It made he probably it probably what it was is that it was like, I'm thinking about retiring, and then somebody was like, Oh, Tom Brady's gonna retire!
- 6:12SPEAKER_01: Yeah, yeah.
- 6:13SPEAKER_01: They want to get on it first, just like every other news outlet.
- 6:16SPEAKER_02: Yeah, I mean that's that's that's media crap for you.
- 6:19SPEAKER_01: It is.
- 6:20SPEAKER_01: Yeah, it is.
- 6:20SPEAKER_01: But you know what?
- 6:21SPEAKER_01: If he does retire, more power to him, dude.
- 6:23SPEAKER_02: I mean I mean 22 years?
- 6:25SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
- 6:25SPEAKER_02: He's a thousand years old.
- 6:27SPEAKER_01: Yep.
- 6:27SPEAKER_02: I mean, he's had a good run, man.
- 6:29SPEAKER_02: What I mean, what more can the man possibly do?
- 6:31SPEAKER_01: And he he never has to work a day in his life.
- 6:33SPEAKER_02: No.
- 6:34SPEAKER_01: But he's I don't know, he's got all these other side ventures going on.
- 6:36SPEAKER_01: I think.
- 6:37SPEAKER_02: Well, he's got his brand, his TB12.
- 6:39SPEAKER_01: But his wife makes more money than he does.
- 6:41SPEAKER_01: She does.
- 6:42SPEAKER_01: So they're seeing.
- 6:42SPEAKER_02: He's married to a super bottle.
- 6:44SPEAKER_02: He's won seven Super Bowls.
- 6:45SPEAKER_02: Jack.
- 6:47SPEAKER_02: He's such a jerk.
- 6:49SPEAKER_02: I hate him.
- 6:51SPEAKER_02: But you know.
- 6:52SPEAKER_02: It is true.
- 6:52SPEAKER_02: But I mean, he and he's he's a first ballot in the canton.
- 6:55SPEAKER_02: So I mean, I mean, the dude can literally do no more.
- 6:59SPEAKER_02: I'm I mean, what's he gonna do?
- 7:00SPEAKER_02: Win the Super Bowl by himself, right?
- 7:03SPEAKER_02: I mean, I don't know.
- 7:04SPEAKER_02: I mean, what more can he do?
- 7:05SPEAKER_01: Yeah, well, I mean, they made it to the playoffs uh with you know the Bucs.
- 7:09SPEAKER_01: So I mean it happened.
- 7:11SPEAKER_02: I mean, you know.
- 7:13SPEAKER_01: It is what it is, man.
- 7:15SPEAKER_01: It is what it is.
- 7:15SPEAKER_01: Yeah, so yeah, it is what it is.
- 7:17SPEAKER_02: But yeah, the playoffs have been the best part of the season.
- 7:19SPEAKER_01: So uh honestly, I mean we had uh my kids and I had a kind of like a little party last night, you know, actually la yesterday afternoon and last night we watched the the uh both games.
- 7:30SPEAKER_01: Yeah, and we we had you know potato chips and all that stuff.
- 7:33SPEAKER_01: Oh, of course.
- 7:33SPEAKER_01: I had my kids, my kids were all wearing my Niners.
- 7:35SPEAKER_01: You see my Niners, my rice jerseys gone because they had.
- 7:38SPEAKER_01: I was about to say, where is that then?
- 7:40SPEAKER_01: They we all were wearing Niners stuff and uh but it didn't work.
- 7:43SPEAKER_01: Now they didn't uh they didn't pull through, but that's okay.
- 7:46SPEAKER_01: It came close, but you know close.
- 7:48SPEAKER_01: My wife was down here earlier and she said that I was depressed, and yeah, I've been it's Monday, it's kind of just kind of a downer of a day.
- 7:56SPEAKER_01: And she said, Oh, your team lost.
- 7:57SPEAKER_01: No, that doesn't depress me.
- 7:59SPEAKER_01: You know, that's it's kind of a bummer, but it doesn't depress me.
- 8:01SPEAKER_01: I don't really care.
- 8:02SPEAKER_02: If you're a Boston Red Sox fan or if you're a 49er fan, you're used to your team losing.
- 8:08SPEAKER_02: Yeah, you know what I'm saying?
- 8:09SPEAKER_02: I mean, the 49ers are not the same team they were in the 80s.
- 8:13SPEAKER_02: No, you know, once Steve Young left that franchise, yeah, and Jerry Rice left that franchise, that's that was the that was like that was it.
- 8:21SPEAKER_01: Dude, when they were there though, it they were unstoppable.
- 8:24SPEAKER_02: There there was nobody else, man.
- 8:26SPEAKER_02: In the 80s, when we were kids, man, the 49ers were everything.
- 8:29SPEAKER_02: And it was like New England Who?
- 8:30SPEAKER_02: Yeah, we even have a team, right?
- 8:32SPEAKER_02: Except for the 85 when they're Doug Slooty and Yeah, I mean Drew Bledsoe.
- 8:37SPEAKER_02: Oh, those guys, yeah.
- 8:38SPEAKER_02: You know, if it wasn't for uh, you know, I I credit, you know, uh Kraft for bringing that franchise around.
- 8:46SPEAKER_02: Because if he hadn't, man, if he hadn't bought that franchise, yeah, we would not be talking about the New England Patriots ever, ever again.
- 8:54SPEAKER_01: Yep.
- 8:54SPEAKER_02: I mean, they were just that bad.
- 8:56SPEAKER_01: I agree.
- 8:57SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
- 8:57SPEAKER_01: And I get kids, you know, I work in an elementary school and I get kids coming out who's your favorite film?
- 9:01SPEAKER_01: Because they're wearing Patriots, you know, guards.
- 9:03SPEAKER_01: Oh, yeah.
- 9:03SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
- 9:03SPEAKER_01: And I'm like, oh, I like the Patriots.
- 9:06SPEAKER_01: They're the best.
- 9:07SPEAKER_01: Well, they're my number two.
- 9:08SPEAKER_01: What?
- 9:10SPEAKER_01: You're not from here, are you?
- 9:13SPEAKER_01: Yes, I am.
- 9:14SPEAKER_01: What do you mean they're your number two?
- 9:15SPEAKER_01: Who's your number one?
- 9:16SPEAKER_01: The Niners.
- 9:17SPEAKER_01: Who?
- 9:18SPEAKER_02: Yeah, see?
- 9:18SPEAKER_02: They don't get it, man.
- 9:20SPEAKER_02: They didn't they didn't grow up with us.
- 9:21SPEAKER_02: When we were growing up, nobody heard of the Patriots.
- 9:23SPEAKER_02: Nobody was a fan of the Patriots.
- 9:25SPEAKER_01: Exactly.
- 9:25SPEAKER_01: You know, so look at this.
- 9:27SPEAKER_02: Damn the torpedoes, Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers.
- 9:32SPEAKER_02: I love that album.
- 9:34SPEAKER_01: It is an album, too.
- 9:35SPEAKER_01: You noticed that, right?
- 9:36SPEAKER_01: Yeah, oh yeah.
- 9:37SPEAKER_01: It's a vinyl album.
- 9:38SPEAKER_01: Like it's my latest acquisition from uh one of our fine sponsors, KMH Music, Main Street in Prescott.
- 9:45SPEAKER_01: Was down there today, and uh it was kind of funny.
- 9:48SPEAKER_01: Uh I was down there for another reason, and uh I happened to glance over and I said uh uh I said to Chris, I said, Oh, you got some new used vinyl in.
- 9:59SPEAKER_01: And uh he said, Yeah, and I walked over and he says, Yeah, there's a Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers album in there, and I said, Not anymore.
- 10:06SPEAKER_01: Yoink! Dan the Torpedoes, well, classic, classic albums.
- 10:10SPEAKER_02: That is one of the best albums on the planet.
- 10:12SPEAKER_01: It really is.
- 10:13SPEAKER_01: Yeah, it really is.
- 10:14SPEAKER_01: And and I could say, well, not all of them, but uh a good majority of Tom Petty albums rank right up there.
- 10:22SPEAKER_02: I mean, did Tom Petty make a bad album?
- 10:24SPEAKER_01: Uh no.
- 10:25SPEAKER_02: Um I rest my case.
- 10:28SPEAKER_02: There was that's up to you, Senator.
- 10:30SPEAKER_01: Right.
- 10:31SPEAKER_01: There were some there were some of his last ones that were good.
- 10:36SPEAKER_01: I mean, it's I mean Tom Petty, right?
- 10:38SPEAKER_01: Yeah, yeah.
- 10:38SPEAKER_01: But they're not they didn't have the uh staying power I thought that a lot of his stuff had.
- 10:43SPEAKER_01: But you know, you're right though, they're not bad albums.
- 10:45SPEAKER_01: They're good, they're good albums because he doesn't make a bad album.
- 10:48SPEAKER_01: No.
- 10:49SPEAKER_01: Um but what was interesting to me was Chris Morton still feels the need to keep getting vinyl because he's selling it.
- 10:57SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
- 10:58SPEAKER_01: Um so I thought we would talk about and well, this whole Spotify thing too.
- 11:03SPEAKER_01: Remember, I mean Joe Rogan.
- 11:06SPEAKER_01: Oh yeah, exactly.
- 11:08SPEAKER_01: So Joe Rogan, if you don't know, he's a podcaster.
- 11:12SPEAKER_02: He's like he's had quite a career.
- 11:14SPEAKER_02: Do you know to be honest with you?
- 11:15SPEAKER_02: Joe, when I saw remember when he was on news radio, the show.
- 11:19SPEAKER_01: Yes, I do.
- 11:20SPEAKER_02: He was just this punk kid.
- 11:21SPEAKER_01: Yeah, he's a stand-up comedian, too.
- 11:23SPEAKER_02: Stand-up comedian.
- 11:24SPEAKER_02: He's just a punk kid.
- 11:25SPEAKER_02: Now he's like the biggest podcaster on the planet.
- 11:28SPEAKER_02: He he was an MMA fighter.
- 11:31SPEAKER_02: I mean, this is an announcer, announcer.
- 11:33SPEAKER_02: Announcer, yeah.
- 11:34SPEAKER_02: I mean, what kind of career is he?
- 11:36SPEAKER_01: Host of uh Fear Factor.
- 11:37SPEAKER_02: Oh, yeah.
- 11:38SPEAKER_02: He was a TV host of Fear Factor.
- 11:39SPEAKER_02: I forgot about that.
- 11:40SPEAKER_01: Oh, yeah, he has had a storied and varied career in uh the entertainment business.
- 11:45SPEAKER_01: And and you're right, he is when you think of podcasts, he is the what you think of.
- 11:51SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
- 11:52SPEAKER_01: Because he is like just killing it, and he has been for a number of years.
- 11:56SPEAKER_01: Oh yeah.
- 11:57SPEAKER_01: Um Mark Marin is up there too, he's another comedian that turned to podcasting.
- 12:00SPEAKER_01: Oh yeah, yeah, I've heard of him.
- 12:02SPEAKER_01: He's he's he's also up there, but not as not as Adam Carolla, he's got a big problem.
- 12:06SPEAKER_01: But Joe Rogan is the king of the crop right now.
- 12:08SPEAKER_01: Oh yeah, yeah.
- 12:09SPEAKER_01: And and it was Spotify carry some he made this huge deal with Spotify.
- 12:13SPEAKER_01: And um he had a couple of guests on that were talking about vaccines and talking about COVID and stuff like that, and supposedly was misinformation.
- 12:22SPEAKER_01: I'd like to know who decides what misinformation is and what real information is.
- 12:28SPEAKER_02: I'd like to know who where the you know aren't those guys that he was talking to like doctors?
- 12:32SPEAKER_02: Absolutely award-winning doctors, yes.
- 12:35SPEAKER_02: So how is how is what they're saying misinformation?
- 12:38SPEAKER_01: Right.
- 12:38SPEAKER_02: I don't I don't understand.
- 12:39SPEAKER_02: I guess I don't understand the whole hubble blue.
- 12:42SPEAKER_01: Right.
- 12:43SPEAKER_01: But regardless of that, uh you got Neil Young who comes out and says, um he's giving misinformation on his podcast, so uh there can't be two of us on Spotify.
- 12:55SPEAKER_01: So Spotify, it's either Joe Rogan or me.
- 12:58SPEAKER_01: So I'm gonna pull all my music if you don't get rid of Joe Rogan's podcast.
- 13:02SPEAKER_01: And Spotify said, Okay, we'll pull it for you.
- 13:05SPEAKER_01: Basically, calling your bluff.
- 13:08SPEAKER_01: So they say they took all Neil Young's music off, and then uh Joni Mitchell came out and said, I'm with Neil.
- 13:13SPEAKER_01: And so she took all her music off Spotify.
- 13:17SPEAKER_01: And my thing is is if you're a fan of Neil Young and Joni Mitchell, are you listening to them on Spotify?
- 13:23SPEAKER_02: Or are you listening to them probably listening to them on an eight-track.
- 13:28SPEAKER_01: Right.
- 13:29SPEAKER_01: That would be my guess.
- 13:30SPEAKER_01: No disrespect to Neil Young.
- 13:32SPEAKER_02: And the ironic thing about that is is that taking Neil Young's music off of Spotify means you no longer can listen to the song Rocking in the Free World.
- 13:43SPEAKER_01: Isn't that ironic?
- 13:45SPEAKER_01: That's isn't it ironic?
- 13:47SPEAKER_02: Thank you, Alanis Morriset.
- 13:48SPEAKER_01: Well, I really do think.
- 13:50SPEAKER_01: Uh that is I never even thought about that.
- 13:53SPEAKER_02: I think I I saw that somewhere and I didn't stick it with me and I was like, that is perfect, man.
- 13:57SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
- 13:58SPEAKER_01: That's like somebody and somebody else said, you know, telling uh taking Joe Rogan's podcast off is like burning books.
- 14:05SPEAKER_02: You know, it's I don't understand why it's a freedom of speech thing.
- 14:09SPEAKER_02: It's a First Amendment thing.
- 14:10SPEAKER_02: I mean, you know, why But you're killing people.
- 14:13SPEAKER_02: This misinformation that you're giving.
- 14:15SPEAKER_02: Is he walking around with a handgun shooting people?
- 14:17SPEAKER_02: Is that is that what he is he is he physically injecting people that walk down the street with some sort of virus?
- 14:24SPEAKER_01: I mean he's not killing anybody.
- 14:26SPEAKER_01: He actually came out uh uh today or yesterday uh since this whole Neil Young thing happened, and he said, you know, he doesn't want that to happen.
- 14:34SPEAKER_01: He doesn't want Neil Young to pull his music off.
- 14:36SPEAKER_01: He doesn't it means no disrespect to him.
- 14:38SPEAKER_01: He says um he's gonna put some things in place where they're gonna put a disclaimer on uh his podcast, and they're gonna he's gonna try and get both sides of the issue on the same podcast and blah blah blah.
- 14:50SPEAKER_01: I don't know why he has to do that.
- 14:51SPEAKER_02: He shouldn't have to, man, because if you don't want to listen to what he has to say, don't listen.
- 14:55SPEAKER_02: Don't listen to the podcast.
- 14:56SPEAKER_02: It's so simple.
- 14:57SPEAKER_02: Right.
- 14:58SPEAKER_02: There are so many people I don't agree with.
- 14:59SPEAKER_02: Right.
- 15:00SPEAKER_02: You know what I do?
- 15:01SPEAKER_02: I don't listen to them, I don't read them.
- 15:04SPEAKER_01: Exactly.
- 15:05SPEAKER_02: And it's sad, man, because I like so much of Neil Young's music.
- 15:08SPEAKER_01: Yep.
- 15:09SPEAKER_02: You know, I mean I I have him on my iPad, so uh, you know, so I'm I'm good.
- 15:13SPEAKER_02: Yeah, I mean I don't listen to Spotify or Hypering.
- 15:16SPEAKER_02: You know, I don't I mean I have it, but I never listen to it because it's pointless because I have I have so much music.
- 15:22SPEAKER_02: Right.
- 15:23SPEAKER_02: You know, I don't need somebody to stream it for me.
- 15:26SPEAKER_01: Right.
- 15:26SPEAKER_01: Well here's the thing I wanted to kind of I mean w we could do a like a whole series of podcasts on this, but um I bring up the vinyl that I bought today, the Tom Petty, because there's a bit of over the past probably five ten years maybe there's been a resurgence of vinyl.
- 15:48SPEAKER_01: People are going back to the record.
- 15:50SPEAKER_01: Right.
- 15:51SPEAKER_01: Um even there's the CDs are it seem like they're on their way out.
- 15:57SPEAKER_01: Um they still sell them in the stores for now.
- 16:01SPEAKER_01: Right.
- 16:01SPEAKER_01: But they seem but the vinyl, I don't know if you notice, of course, the only place we have really to shop uh in in Prescott uh in our hometown is is Walmart.
- 16:12SPEAKER_01: There are all these other places, but everybody goes to Walmart.
- 16:15SPEAKER_01: And I don't know if you notice that the CD collection at Walmart has has uh decreased, but the vinyl collection Oh I avoid Walmart like I most people do, but you know, I hate it so much.
- 16:26SPEAKER_01: Um at Walmart, I hate you.
- 16:30unknown: I hate you.
- 16:31SPEAKER_01: Don't ever sponsor our podcast.
- 16:34SPEAKER_01: But the vinyl section has expanded.
- 16:36SPEAKER_02: That's reverse psychology, by the way.
- 16:37SPEAKER_02: Right.
- 16:38SPEAKER_01: Now they're gonna be like, oh, we want to we wanna sponsor your podcast, Doug, because we're gonna make copies of your podcast and sell it in Walmart.
- 16:45SPEAKER_02: We're gonna put it on it's gonna have its own section, it's gonna be Brian and Doug's podcast section on vinyl record.
- 16:57SPEAKER_01: Screw you, Walmart! So, so I want to talk about like because everybody streams now.
- 17:03SPEAKER_01: Yeah, even me.
- 17:04SPEAKER_01: I mean, we we I listen to Sirius XM.
- 17:07SPEAKER_01: Yep.
- 17:07SPEAKER_01: Uh just because the variety is there.
- 17:09SPEAKER_01: That's the key, right?
- 17:11SPEAKER_01: I can listen to anything I want.
- 17:12SPEAKER_01: Exactly.
- 17:13SPEAKER_01: Um, and you know, the radio you can't, I mean, the radio is still stuck.
- 17:17SPEAKER_01: There's there's you're stuck in a certain place.
- 17:20SPEAKER_01: The same 25 songs and you can't get out of it.
- 17:23SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
- 17:23SPEAKER_01: So that's why I got Sirius XM and and you can listen to different channels that have different kinds of music.
- 17:28SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
- 17:28SPEAKER_01: I listen to Bluesville all the time.
- 17:30SPEAKER_01: Yep.
- 17:31SPEAKER_02: Um I love the jazz channels, I listen to Yacht Rod.
- 17:34SPEAKER_02: Right.
- 17:34SPEAKER_02: You know, the I the 80s on eight.
- 17:36SPEAKER_02: I love that state, you know.
- 17:38SPEAKER_01: So but and so so everybody listens to streaming music, whether it be Spotify, Apple music, whatever.
- 17:45SPEAKER_01: Um the the quality do you notice a difference in quality?
- 17:49SPEAKER_02: Of what?
- 17:49SPEAKER_01: Of the music, like like the sound of the music when you stream it.
- 17:53SPEAKER_01: Do you notice?
- 17:54SPEAKER_01: Most people don't.
- 17:55SPEAKER_01: Unless you're an audiophile.
- 17:58SPEAKER_01: Like unless you're just kind of your ears are like pristine.
- 18:03SPEAKER_02: Well, that's definitely not me.
- 18:05SPEAKER_01: Right.
- 18:06SPEAKER_01: There is a difference because the music is more compressed.
- 18:09SPEAKER_01: Right.
- 18:10SPEAKER_01: Um, but I don't think people care about that anymore.
- 18:12SPEAKER_01: Well, I shouldn't say that.
- 18:14SPEAKER_01: Um a lot of people don't care about that anymore.
- 18:17SPEAKER_01: The people that do care about that have gone back to vinyl.
- 18:20SPEAKER_01: Uh vinyl is a warmer sound if the record's in if the record's in good condition and the the record player and the needle are all in good condition.
- 18:28SPEAKER_01: It's a warmer, thicker uh sound.
- 18:32SPEAKER_01: Um and the resurgence is kind of I don't know, what was I reading here?
- 18:37SPEAKER_01: The um in the 70s, let me let me look at this.
- 18:40SPEAKER_01: I'm looking at the hustle uh.com.
- 18:44SPEAKER_01: Like the song a hustle?
- 18:45SPEAKER_01: No.
- 18:46SPEAKER_01: Actually, it's not the hustle.com, it's the hustle.co.
- 18:49SPEAKER_01: I don't know what that means.
- 18:51SPEAKER_01: Uh I didn't realize there was a is that a company thing?
- 18:54SPEAKER_01: Long before the days of Spotify Alpha Music in the 70s, vinyl sales peaked at 530 million units a year and accounted for 66% of all music format revenues.
- 19:05SPEAKER_01: That's in the 70s.
- 19:06SPEAKER_01: Okay.
- 19:07SPEAKER_01: And then, of course, you know, uh in the 80s and 90s, CDs replaced vinyl.
- 19:11SPEAKER_01: Right.
- 19:11SPEAKER_01: Cassettes and then CDs.
- 19:12SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
- 19:13SPEAKER_01: And and then we went streaming.
- 19:16SPEAKER_02: Um, I didn't buy my first CD till the 90s.
- 19:20SPEAKER_01: I can't remember what my first CD was.
- 19:22SPEAKER_01: Because we used to buy cassettes.
- 19:24SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
- 19:24SPEAKER_01: I had all cassettes.
- 19:25SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
- 19:26SPEAKER_02: I think I bought my first C D in the 90s.
- 19:30SPEAKER_02: I think I was at the P.
- 19:31SPEAKER_02: I think that's probably.
- 19:32SPEAKER_02: I don't I don't even remember what I think I don't even remember what it was.
- 19:35SPEAKER_02: But remember it came in that big case.
- 19:37SPEAKER_01: Yes.
- 19:37SPEAKER_01: Like it was like this long.
- 19:38SPEAKER_02: Yeah, it was like a foot long, and then the CD was at the top part, and you had to you had to get like C4 plastic explosives to open it.
- 19:45SPEAKER_02: I don't exactly know why.
- 19:46SPEAKER_02: I don't either.
- 19:47SPEAKER_01: Why it was packaged that way.
- 19:48SPEAKER_02: It was so weird.
- 19:49SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
- 19:50SPEAKER_01: Anyway, um, for the past 15 years, sales of new vinyl have gradually increased.
- 19:55SPEAKER_01: In the first half of 2021 alone, 17 million albums were sold.
- 20:00SPEAKER_01: That's an 86% jump from the year before.
- 20:03SPEAKER_01: Wow.
- 20:04SPEAKER_01: Uh, and then in an extremely rare twist, an old technology came back to surpass a newer one last year for the first time since 86.
- 20:10SPEAKER_01: Vinyl Records outranked CDs in annual sales.
- 20:14SPEAKER_01: This year they're on pace to more than double CD revenue.
- 20:18SPEAKER_01: So I guess I don't know.
- 20:21SPEAKER_01: Why do you think that is?
- 20:23SPEAKER_02: I bet it's a nostalgia thing.
- 20:24SPEAKER_01: Yeah?
- 20:25SPEAKER_01: I mean, we I've started collecting, obviously.
- 20:28SPEAKER_02: Yeah, well, I mean, we we've re we've reinvigorated our collections.
- 20:31SPEAKER_02: Yes.
- 20:32SPEAKER_01: So and I don't even care if they're used.
- 20:34SPEAKER_02: No, I don't care either.
- 20:35SPEAKER_02: I mean, if it's new, great.
- 20:37SPEAKER_02: But if it's if it's used, I don't care.
- 20:40SPEAKER_02: As long as it's pretty good, decent shape.
- 20:42SPEAKER_04: Yep.
- 20:43SPEAKER_02: I don't I don't care, man.
- 20:44SPEAKER_02: One of my favorite things to do is to put on I have uh some kind of blue, Miles Davis, yeah, on vinyl.
- 20:50SPEAKER_02: And I'll put that on and I'll read a book, man.
- 20:52SPEAKER_02: And it is the most relaxing thing ever.
- 20:55SPEAKER_01: Yep.
- 20:55SPEAKER_02: You know what I mean?
- 20:56SPEAKER_01: Yeah, I wish I had time to do that.
- 20:58SPEAKER_02: I have a record player.
- 20:58SPEAKER_02: Well, you have to make time, that's the thing.
- 21:00SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
- 21:01SPEAKER_01: I have I have they all my wife says the same thing about going to the gym.
- 21:04SPEAKER_01: Um, so why would you want to do that?
- 21:07SPEAKER_01: Right.
- 21:10SPEAKER_02: Who wants to live longer and be healthy?
- 21:12SPEAKER_01: That's just stupid.
- 21:15SPEAKER_01: I have two record players, and what I would give to come home from work and just lay on that beautiful love seat, put a record on, and just chill.
- 21:27SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
- 21:28SPEAKER_01: Um, but alas, I have kids that I have to rec department.
- 21:33SPEAKER_02: You're not gonna be able to do that until all your kids go off and until I retire, probably.
- 21:38SPEAKER_01: But I honestly, I have these albums and my wife's like, Why are you keep buying this?
- 21:41SPEAKER_01: Because one day I'm going to listen to them all.
- 21:43SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
- 21:44SPEAKER_01: One right after another.
- 21:45SPEAKER_01: Yep.
- 21:45SPEAKER_01: And I will have the time to do it.
- 21:47SPEAKER_01: Absolutely.
- 21:47SPEAKER_01: So anyway, but yeah, I think it's you're right.
- 21:50SPEAKER_01: I think it is a nostalgia thing, and I think it's it's for people that like to collect things, right?
- 21:56SPEAKER_01: And especially music aficionados.
- 21:58SPEAKER_01: I mean, I you you remember when This wall of tunes was huge.
- 22:03SPEAKER_01: I mean, I had a lot of CDs and narrowed it down, and uh there's still a lot there.
- 22:10SPEAKER_01: Oh yeah.
- 22:10SPEAKER_01: But I needed some to replace my collecting with something, you know, I had to so now I'm collecting vinyl and guitars.
- 22:17SPEAKER_02: I think there's I think there's something comforting about a vinyl record.
- 22:22SPEAKER_01: It's like for people our age or for everybody?
- 22:25SPEAKER_02: Well, I think mostly for people our age, people that remember when that was all you had.
- 22:30SPEAKER_01: Right.
- 22:30SPEAKER_02: Was basically records.
- 22:32SPEAKER_02: Yeah.
- 22:32SPEAKER_02: You know, cassettes were still fairly new, like in the 70s.
- 22:35SPEAKER_01: Yep.
- 22:36SPEAKER_02: Like late 70s, early 80s.
- 22:38SPEAKER_02: But I mean, there's so you know, for us it's a nostalgia thing.
- 22:41SPEAKER_02: You know, we remember, we remember, you know, you get the big record, and you know, it had this the sleeve with all the lyrics.
- 22:47SPEAKER_02: The sleeve with the lyrics on it and the bag.
- 22:49SPEAKER_02: I mean, I mean, there was your you know, your favorite band right there.
- 22:52SPEAKER_02: It's just huge.
- 22:53SPEAKER_02: Yep.
- 22:53SPEAKER_02: You know, and while you're listening to it, you're looking at this album cover, you know?
- 22:57SPEAKER_02: Well, the CD, it's like it's it's little.
- 23:00SPEAKER_02: And then then came streaming, and it's like nothing.
- 23:03SPEAKER_01: Yeah, there's nothing.
- 23:04SPEAKER_02: There's nothing to look at.
- 23:04SPEAKER_02: There's no liner notes anywhere.
- 23:06SPEAKER_02: I love liner notes.
- 23:08SPEAKER_01: Oh man.
- 23:08SPEAKER_02: You want to read the liner notes you want to read the lyrics, you want to read who did it.
- 23:11SPEAKER_02: You know, who's playing guitar on this song?
- 23:13SPEAKER_01: Yeah, absolutely.
- 23:15SPEAKER_01: I remember the Michael Jackson thriller album.
- 23:17SPEAKER_01: Do you remember the so when you opened it up, he was like laying there in this big white suit suit with the black shirt.
- 23:25SPEAKER_02: Didn't he have like a leopard or something with him?
- 23:27SPEAKER_02: Probably.
- 23:28SPEAKER_02: He was probably endangered, but nobody cared back in the 80s, man.
- 23:32SPEAKER_02: It was just like Michael Jackson! Nobody cared about anything in the Michael Jackson could pretty much get away with anything back then, and he did.
- 23:41SPEAKER_01: So I want to read you this this little chart here.
- 23:44SPEAKER_01: Um, because it's also quite telling.
- 23:48SPEAKER_02: Okay.
- 23:48SPEAKER_01: Uh this is and and it also tells you who's buying these records.
- 23:52SPEAKER_01: So from 2020, the best-selling album uh of best-selling albums of 2020.
- 24:00SPEAKER_02: If you say nickel back, I'm gonna punch you in the face.
- 24:02SPEAKER_01: No, they have it, they actually have it um uh uh uh categorized as modern album and vintage album.
- 24:09SPEAKER_01: All right.
- 24:09SPEAKER_01: So that says the chart toppers are a mix of old and new.
- 24:13SPEAKER_01: So 200 and remember when going gold was selling five hundred thousand records and gold units or whatever.
- 24:22SPEAKER_01: Yeah, uh like like you would sell a CD or an album.
- 24:26SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
- 24:27SPEAKER_01: Five hundred thousand of those albums.
- 24:29SPEAKER_01: Yeah, that was that was gold, right?
- 24:30SPEAKER_01: And then right, and then a million was platinum.
- 24:32SPEAKER_01: Right.
- 24:32SPEAKER_01: So they've changed the rules, you know, because nobody is selling even close to that now.
- 24:38SPEAKER_01: Right.
- 24:39SPEAKER_01: I think Adele's new album was the first one that sold that went gold, uh like in CD form uh in years.
- 24:48SPEAKER_01: Um but anyway, um two hundred and thirty-two thousand albums, like real albums, records, were sold of fine line by Harry Styles.
- 25:06SPEAKER_01: So that was the top-selling album of 2020.
- 25:09SPEAKER_01: 232,000 albums.
- 25:12SPEAKER_01: Yep, physical 33s.
- 25:15SPEAKER_01: The next one, Billy Eilish, when we all fall asleep, 196,000 albums.
- 25:23SPEAKER_02: Okay, okay.
- 25:24SPEAKER_01: Those are the top two right there.
- 25:27SPEAKER_01: And then Queen's Greatest Hits.
- 25:31SPEAKER_01: The first one 176,000.
- 25:35SPEAKER_01: Beatles Abbey Road.
- 25:38SPEAKER_01: 16,000.
- 25:39SPEAKER_01: I bought one.
- 25:39SPEAKER_01: I'm sorry, 161,000.
- 25:41SPEAKER_02: I bought one.
- 25:43SPEAKER_01: And then this also tells you about what people are listening to.
- 25:48SPEAKER_01: The next top selling album was a soundtrack.
- 25:52SPEAKER_01: Any guesses?
- 25:53SPEAKER_01: Frozen?
- 25:54SPEAKER_01: Nope.
- 25:56SPEAKER_01: Guardians of the Galaxy.
- 25:58SPEAKER_02: Oh! Which has one or two.
- 26:00SPEAKER_01: Uh it does, it just says Guardians of the Galaxy.
- 26:02SPEAKER_02: Oh, okay.

- 26:10SPEAKER_01: These are records.
- 26:11SPEAKER_02: Yeah.
- 26:12SPEAKER_02: Not CDs.
- 26:13SPEAKER_02: I didn't even know that was on record.
- 26:15SPEAKER_01: Right.
- 26:15SPEAKER_01: Uh Legend, the best of Bob Marley, 148,000.
- 26:19SPEAKER_01: Fleetwood Max Rumors.

- 26:22SPEAKER_02: I do too.
- 26:23SPEAKER_01: I have that used.
- 26:23SPEAKER_01: I do I do too.
- 26:24SPEAKER_01: 138,000.
- 26:26SPEAKER_01: Another Billy Eilish album, Don't Smile At Me.
- 26:28SPEAKER_01: That was more than one?
- 26:29SPEAKER_01: Yeah, apparently.
- 26:30SPEAKER_01: Michael Jackson's thriller in 2020 sold 125,000.
- 26:35SPEAKER_02: I wonder whatever happened to mine.
- 26:37SPEAKER_01: I s I have the I have the you know what?
- 26:40SPEAKER_01: I still might have it.
- 26:41SPEAKER_01: I know that I have um the album case.
- 26:46SPEAKER_01: Like the album I didn't.
- 26:49SPEAKER_02: I wonder whatever happened to it.
- 26:51SPEAKER_01: I have it somewhere.
- 26:52SPEAKER_02: I bet it's packed away somewhere.
- 26:53SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
- 26:54SPEAKER_02: I should find it.
- 26:55SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
- 26:56SPEAKER_01: Did you notice that I I don't know if you can see over there, probably not, but I bought the Blues Brothers.
- 27:01SPEAKER_02: Oh, I I saw that last week.
- 27:02SPEAKER_01: The soundtrack?
- 27:02SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
- 27:03SPEAKER_01: Yeah, yeah.
- 27:03SPEAKER_01: I haven't uh cracked it open yet.
- 27:05SPEAKER_01: Ah, it's a good idea.
- 27:06SPEAKER_01: It's a good and I wanted to tell you that even though you hate Walmart, I did see one in there that you might like.
- 27:14SPEAKER_01: Uh I can't remember the name of the album, but it was John Coltrane.
- 27:18SPEAKER_01: Brand new.
- 27:20SPEAKER_02: I would I would I would break my non Walmart oath for that.
- 27:25SPEAKER_01: Okay, so those all those figures that I just read to you?
- 27:28SPEAKER_02: Yeah.
- 27:29SPEAKER_01: Um, those don't even include the millions of used records sold.
- 27:34SPEAKER_02: Oh, yeah.
- 27:34SPEAKER_01: So that was all new records.
- 27:36SPEAKER_01: Yep.
- 27:37SPEAKER_01: Um for modern day indie artists, it's a welcome boom.
- 27:40SPEAKER_01: A vinyl record costs$7 to manufacture, and a band typically sells it directly to fans for$25.
- 27:47SPEAKER_01: That's an$18 profit.
- 27:49SPEAKER_01: A band would have to amass 450,000 streams on Spotify to match the profit of 100 vinyl sales.
- 27:57SPEAKER_01: See, there you go.
- 27:59SPEAKER_01: That is criminal.
- 28:01SPEAKER_01: I mean, it's just it's it's mind blowing to me.
- 28:05SPEAKER_02: See, that's why I'm not I don't have such a big I don't care what Neil Young does with his music.
- 28:10SPEAKER_02: Right.
- 28:10SPEAKER_02: I don't care.
- 28:11SPEAKER_02: I don't care.
- 28:12SPEAKER_02: Because Spotify is ripping everybody off anyway.
- 28:14SPEAKER_01: Yes, that well then I made that joke.
- 28:16SPEAKER_01: Somebody somebody had posted uh something about um Neil Young.
- 28:21SPEAKER_01: I there's an article that Neil Young is is probably gonna lose a lot of money by taking his music off Spotify.
- 28:28SPEAKER_01: And I said, Well, uh it's Spotify, so he probably will only lose like uh four dollars and twenty-six He'll lose probably five bucks.
- 28:36SPEAKER_02: Right, right.
- 28:37SPEAKER_02: Oh no, I can't go to McDonald's today.
- 28:39SPEAKER_02: Right.
- 28:40SPEAKER_02: You know?
- 28:40SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
- 28:41SPEAKER_01: So I mean it's just it's just interesting the the times that we live in and and the way um art is undervalued these days.
- 28:48SPEAKER_02: Well it just it just bugs me that they they these big streaming services pay so little for music when it's so much goes into making a song.
- 28:57SPEAKER_01: Right.
- 28:58SPEAKER_01: It's true.
- 28:58SPEAKER_02: You know, it's it's it's completely unfair to artists.
- 29:01SPEAKER_01: Yep.
- 29:02SPEAKER_02: Yep you know, that's why they gotta they gotta tour.
- 29:05SPEAKER_02: They gotta make money somehow because you're not gonna make it streaming on the internet.
- 29:09SPEAKER_01: Right.
- 29:10SPEAKER_02: You know what I mean?
- 29:10SPEAKER_01: Yep, it's true.
- 29:11SPEAKER_01: It's true.
- 29:13SPEAKER_01: So uh I just thought that was interesting, and I th I still think uh I still think vinyl sounds better.
- 29:19SPEAKER_01: I yeah in the right circumstances.
- 29:21SPEAKER_02: I mean it's it's there's a there's a comfort thing to it.
- 29:26SPEAKER_01: I agree.
- 29:26SPEAKER_02: So I agree.
- 29:27SPEAKER_02: But I get I get it.
- 29:29SPEAKER_01: You know, I I don't think people can appreciate it unless you grew up with although you know I think some of the some of these vinyl sales are going to to younger people.
- 29:38SPEAKER_02: Well I'm sure I'm sure they are, but I don't think they can appreciate it on the level that you know for us it's a nostalgia thing.
- 29:44SPEAKER_02: For them, it's like oh it's uh it's the new thing.
- 29:46SPEAKER_02: Right.
- 29:46SPEAKER_02: You know what I mean?
- 29:47SPEAKER_02: But you know, these are the same people that don't remember when the Patriots sucked.
- 29:52unknown: Right.
- 29:53SPEAKER_02: You know what I mean?
- 29:53SPEAKER_02: They they have no concept that you know the Patriots actually sucked bad at one point.
- 29:58SPEAKER_01: One thing we didn't have back in the day, which I think is kind of cool, is that Blues Brothers album.
- 30:04SPEAKER_01: Yeah, the vinyl is blue.
- 30:06SPEAKER_01: I'll show it to you.
- 30:07SPEAKER_02: All the vinyl action.
- 30:09SPEAKER_02: See, yeah, they didn't do that.
- 30:10SPEAKER_02: Yeah, isn't that cool though?
- 30:10SPEAKER_01: Yeah, and and and the um um Wolfgang Van Halen album.
- 30:15SPEAKER_01: Oh, yeah, that's like a red.
- 30:16SPEAKER_01: Seren.
- 30:17SPEAKER_01: Yeah, that one was actually comes in different colors.
- 30:19SPEAKER_01: So that's that's kind of a neat new thing, anyway.
- 30:21SPEAKER_01: Uh I digress.
- 30:23SPEAKER_01: Speaking of um of uh albums and songs that were million sellers.
- 30:28SPEAKER_01: Uh let's Can't we talk about us?
- 30:31SPEAKER_02: That is so not us.
- 30:32SPEAKER_02: Let's move on to the we're like we're like one in one one in airs.
- 30:38SPEAKER_01: The Common Crossing song of the week uh is actually a Blake Street Boys song.
- 30:43SPEAKER_01: Right?
- 30:44SPEAKER_02: Yeah it I I I think it even predates the Blake Street Boys.
- 30:50SPEAKER_01: You think so?
- 30:50SPEAKER_02: Well Or it it's like it's like in that it's in that beginning phase.
- 30:56SPEAKER_01: Uh it does have Nate Brewer's name on it.
- 30:58SPEAKER_01: So it says that myself and and Nate Brewer, our former band member, uh contributed to the writing of the song.
- 31:05SPEAKER_01: This is one of my famous um one of my chord progressions where I I go from and nobody's gonna understand this, but when you when you get on a uh a thing that sounds cool, the next song you write, you kind of want to do the same thing.
- 31:22SPEAKER_01: And so I used to write a bunch of songs where there would be a change in there that would go from a B minor to a C.
- 31:28SPEAKER_01: Right.
- 31:28SPEAKER_01: And uh I used to get made fun of by our bass player.
- 31:31SPEAKER_02: What do you mean used to?
- 31:32SPEAKER_01: Yeah, he still does.
- 31:32SPEAKER_02: He still does.
- 31:33SPEAKER_01: Yeah, you'll hear you Shane.
- 31:35SPEAKER_02: That's one of Shane's favorite things to do.
- 31:38SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
- 31:43SPEAKER_01: You'll you'll hear even in a song on the that's on the radio that has has that change or has something like that.
- 31:49SPEAKER_01: He says, Hey, did you write that song?
- 31:51SPEAKER_01: Yeah, yeah.
- 31:53SPEAKER_01: So this is like one of the first ones that had that change, and and you won't know where it is unless you're See if you could pick it out.
- 31:59SPEAKER_01: Oh, yes, yeah.
- 31:59SPEAKER_01: See if you could pick it out.
- 32:01SPEAKER_01: So this was um before I was married.
- 32:06SPEAKER_01: Right.
- 32:07SPEAKER_01: And I don't even think I was dating anyone, so I was lonely.
- 32:13SPEAKER_01: Okay.
- 32:13SPEAKER_01: And Nate was lonely as well.
- 32:15SPEAKER_01: And we wrote the song together.
- 32:17SPEAKER_01: Miss you, buddy.
- 32:19SPEAKER_02: Let's be loading together.
- 32:21SPEAKER_01: So this is The Woman I Love is the name of it, and it's uh somehow I just haven't found her yet.
- 32:29SPEAKER_01: She's the woman I love, but she's an apparition.
- 32:32SPEAKER_01: She's a ghost.
- 32:34SPEAKER_01: She's a ghost.
- 32:35SPEAKER_01: I think dead people.
- 32:36SPEAKER_01: And this is really one of the first songs that Nate and I collaborated on.
- 32:42SPEAKER_01: Um so you'll hear it's on cassette.
- 32:46SPEAKER_01: So the quality is you know superb.
- 32:49SPEAKER_01: Super awesome.
- 32:50SPEAKER_01: So and this is just Nate and I in his uh at his father's house uh just singing into a tape recorder.
- 32:56SPEAKER_01: So that's that's where the superior quality comes from.
- 32:59SPEAKER_01: So this is The Woman I Love, the Comic Crossing song of the week.
- 33:04SPEAKER_00: Okay, this is The Woman I Love.
- 33:05SPEAKER_00: Yeah, I just said that Nathan Brewer.
- 33:07SPEAKER_00: Copyright, 1995, piece of cake meeting.
- 33:10SPEAKER_01: 1995.
- 33:11SPEAKER_00: I love it.
- 33:23SPEAKER_06: She walks in the room with a hair face.
- 33:27SPEAKER_01: I realize we were singing it together.
- 33:31SPEAKER_06: Oh, you are, yeah.
- 33:38SPEAKER_06: She calls me a kiss.
- 33:52SPEAKER_06: There it is, right there.
- 34:54SPEAKER_01: Apparently, I'm dying.
- 36:22SPEAKER_02: Yeah, I'm about it's a simpler time.
- 36:24SPEAKER_01: It was a simpler time, yeah.
- 36:26SPEAKER_02: Uh I like I like how you know it's all about you know you being lonely, but it's very hopeful at the end.
- 36:31SPEAKER_02: Yeah.
- 36:31SPEAKER_02: You know, someday I know I'm gonna find her yet.
- 36:33SPEAKER_02: I'm gonna find her yet.
- 36:34SPEAKER_02: Yeah.
- 36:35SPEAKER_01: Um yeah, so that's uh uh The Woman I Love, Nate Brewer, myself, uh Blake Street Boys, Comic Crossing, all kind of runs together.
- 36:43SPEAKER_01: Uh that is the song of the week.
- 36:44SPEAKER_01: So that was kind of cool.
- 36:46SPEAKER_01: I like it.
- 36:46SPEAKER_01: And I think there's well, we can probably find a few more off that that one cassette, actually.
- 36:51SPEAKER_01: Um, so coming up, we're we're gonna take a break right now.

- 38:38SPEAKER_01: And we're back.
- 38:40SPEAKER_01: It is time for the Wall of Tunes.
- 38:41SPEAKER_01: Okay, so this is uh it's kind of an uh uh neat story.
- 38:47SPEAKER_01: It goes back quite a ways.
- 38:48SPEAKER_01: Um, but it was recently resurrected.
- 38:51SPEAKER_01: And uh what I was telling you before we started the podcast was um I'm doing a songwriting class.
- 38:56SPEAKER_01: Right.
- 38:57SPEAKER_01: It was just on a whim, uh for a through adult ed here in town, and uh it's it's it's kind of a selfish thing, really.
- 39:06SPEAKER_01: It's kind of like uh besides you, I don't get to talk to anybody about songwriting um around here and and uh I I want to.
- 39:15SPEAKER_01: Right.
- 39:16SPEAKER_01: And so I I figured I'd offer this class and and and and get some get some uh ideas from people that come to the class or you know, get some inspiration, uh try and spur creativity, both for them and for me.
- 39:30SPEAKER_01: Sure.
- 39:30SPEAKER_01: Anyway, uh so I had set a limit uh for 15 people in the class, uh, and I also had set a limit that I need at least four to have to make the class happen.
- 39:42SPEAKER_01: Sure.
- 39:43SPEAKER_01: So um the first person to sign up was a woman that I grew up with, which doesn't help me at all.
- 39:51SPEAKER_01: Um I love her.
- 39:53SPEAKER_02: Thanks, but no thanks.
- 39:54SPEAKER_01: Right, no, but I I love her, and I think she's probably just taking the class because I'm teaching the class.
- 39:59SPEAKER_02: Sure, absolutely.
- 40:00SPEAKER_02: Uh which is fine.
- 40:01SPEAKER_01: That's loyalty, man.
- 40:02SPEAKER_01: It is loyalty.
- 40:03SPEAKER_01: Um and but I do think she she likes to write, and she'll try and get something out of it.
- 40:06SPEAKER_01: She actually does, yeah.
- 40:07SPEAKER_01: So she'll try and get something out of it.
- 40:08SPEAKER_01: So the second person to sign up was uh a guy named Ryan Seer.
- 40:14SPEAKER_01: And it automatically made me self-conscious because Ryan Sear, who I actually work with at this at the school, yeah, is an accomplished musician and an accomplished songwriter.
- 40:27SPEAKER_01: And so as soon as he signed up, I'm like, I am just going to be so filled with anxiety uh in this classroom.
- 40:34SPEAKER_01: And so I sent him a message, I said, You're messing this up.
- 40:36SPEAKER_01: I said, I should be taking a class from you.
- 40:38SPEAKER_01: Screw me over, dude.
- 40:39SPEAKER_01: Right.
- 40:40SPEAKER_01: And he had some really nice things to say um and was excited about the class.
- 40:44SPEAKER_01: Good.
- 40:45SPEAKER_01: So um and the reason I bring this up is because Ryan was in a band years ago.
- 40:53SPEAKER_01: Actually, what did I say?
- 40:54SPEAKER_01: It was this was 2008.
- 40:56SPEAKER_01: Something like that, yeah.
- 40:57SPEAKER_01: Um when we were on the radio.
- 40:58SPEAKER_01: Right.
- 40:59SPEAKER_01: Were you on the radio with me at 2008?
- 41:01SPEAKER_01: No.
- 41:02SPEAKER_01: No, yeah.
- 41:02SPEAKER_01: That was later, right?
- 41:03SPEAKER_01: Yeah, that was a couple years left.
- 41:05SPEAKER_01: Um so I was on I I used to do a show uh uh on Thursday nights called The Backyard Buzz.
- 41:10SPEAKER_02: I was on that show once.
- 41:11SPEAKER_01: Yes, you were.
- 41:12SPEAKER_01: Um You weren't there.
- 41:21SPEAKER_02: You have impeccable timing.
- 41:22SPEAKER_02: You know that you were there, but you weren't there.
- 41:28SPEAKER_02: It was very existential.
- 41:34SPEAKER_02: I was there, Shay was there, but you weren't there, but you were.
- 41:42SPEAKER_01: Don't give up my secret book.
- 41:45SPEAKER_01: Okay, I didn't know what you were talking about until you just said that.
- 41:50SPEAKER_02: Because remember, we had to come up with the whole thing, like, yeah, I had a cold.
- 41:53SPEAKER_02: Yeah, you you couldn't make it, or you had some sort of prior engagement.
- 41:57SPEAKER_02: We're like, this is really fun.
- 42:00SPEAKER_02: We're talking about somebody who's here, but he's not here.
- 42:04SPEAKER_01: Right.
- 42:04SPEAKER_01: So, okay, well, let's go back because we could talk about this now.
- 42:07SPEAKER_01: Yeah, it was I was the the DJ on the radio station, and I had this show called The Backyard Buzz that I did on Thursday nights, and where we had um local bands and local artists.
- 42:20SPEAKER_01: Uh we featured their music, they send in all their music, and we played it on the radio, and occasionally we would have guests in.
- 42:25SPEAKER_01: Well, one of those bands was Comic Crossing.
- 42:27SPEAKER_02: Yeah, I was crossed- it was the it was the when we opened for Ernie and the Automatics.
- 42:32SPEAKER_01: Right.
- 42:32SPEAKER_02: We were doing a show you wanted to have us on for to kind of promote the show.
- 42:36SPEAKER_02: Right.
- 42:36SPEAKER_01: So here's the thing on the radio, uh, my name was Chris O'Brien.
- 42:40SPEAKER_01: Yeah, and but it's not my real name.
- 42:42SPEAKER_01: Uh my real name is the guy that's in the Comic Crossing.
- 42:46SPEAKER_01: And so we had Common Crossing on the air, and I was interviewing my band as though I was not in the band.
- 42:54SPEAKER_01: I don't know.
- 42:54SPEAKER_01: So it's quite comical.
- 42:57SPEAKER_01: Anyway.
- 42:58SPEAKER_01: And you remember when I when I was promoting my solo album?
- 43:01SPEAKER_01: Did you hear that part?
- 43:03SPEAKER_01: I was promoting my solo album, but um uh Brian Mosier.
- 43:08SPEAKER_01: Didn't you ever hear this?
- 43:09SPEAKER_01: Brian Mosier couldn't make it in because he was he was sick.
- 43:13SPEAKER_01: He had a cold.
- 43:14SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
- 43:15SPEAKER_01: So I recorded the interview with myself, yeah, and I pretended I had a cold.
- 43:21SPEAKER_01: Right.
- 43:22SPEAKER_01: And and asked all the questions and answered all the questions.
- 43:25SPEAKER_01: It was anyway.
- 43:26SPEAKER_02: It was it was really, it was it was it was the it was the most elaborate talking to yourself conversation to get out.
- 43:34SPEAKER_01: Anyway, to get back to Ryan Sear, uh he was one of those local bands.
- 43:38SPEAKER_01: Uh he's originally from the St.
- 43:40SPEAKER_01: John Valley.
- 43:41SPEAKER_01: Um, but he was I think this band was based in Portland, actually, if I'm not mistaken.
- 43:46SPEAKER_01: Um But I would always this he and I have a uh um a CD here that it has three songs on it.
- 43:54SPEAKER_01: It's kind of it's not an EP really, but it's it's kind of and I have not heard the other two songs because I I could not get past the first song.
- 44:01SPEAKER_01: Sure.
- 44:02SPEAKER_01: It is one of my favorite songs, and Ryan Sear wrote it.
- 44:06SPEAKER_01: And I don't know for sure, but I think he may be singing it as well.
- 44:10SPEAKER_01: Okay.
- 44:10SPEAKER_01: And I don't know if you've heard it or not.
- 44:12SPEAKER_01: I don't.
- 44:13SPEAKER_02: I don't.
- 44:13SPEAKER_02: This will be my first time hearing it.
- 44:15SPEAKER_01: Okay.
- 44:15SPEAKER_01: Um I'm pretty excited about this.
- 44:17SPEAKER_01: This is uh and this is this guy is taking a songwriting class from me, which just blows me away.
- 44:25SPEAKER_01: Okay, so this is Giraffe Attack from 2008, and this is Nation.
- 44:43SPEAKER_05: Blessing fame, but it's the game feel nation, don't want to get the thing on there's something wrong.
- 45:29SPEAKER_05: Read the window that's still alive.
- 45:32SPEAKER_05: Now you're free.
- 45:38SPEAKER_05: Brown in the still window fly.
- 46:06SPEAKER_05: What's that to do with me?
- 47:20SPEAKER_05: Now we all love breathing.
- 47:28SPEAKER_05: It's a green baby, only is that not the coolest song you've ever heard of?
- 48:13SPEAKER_02: That is very cool, man.
- 48:15SPEAKER_01: You were saying, and I guess I never even thought about this before because it's been a long time since I've heard that song.
- 48:21SPEAKER_01: Um by the way, that's Nation by Giraffe Attack.
- 48:24SPEAKER_01: Giraffe Attack, by the way, I don't think exists anymore.
- 48:26SPEAKER_02: That's too bad.
- 48:27SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
- 48:28SPEAKER_01: Um, but uh I never thought about it before, but you pointed out it's very prog rock.
- 48:32SPEAKER_02: It is prog rock, man, because uh the you know it it's acoustic and then it's and then it's got some electric guitar and it's got some really great drumming in it, and then it's got strings, and it keeps changing time signatures.
- 48:43SPEAKER_02: Yeah, I was like, this is very Rush-esque, and it's also very Beatles-esque.
- 48:48SPEAKER_01: Yeah, the harmonies.
- 48:49SPEAKER_02: The harmonies are great, incredible, and the strings in the background just make me think like uh uh, you know, uh uh uh uh I'm the walrus.
- 48:59SPEAKER_02: You know, that's yeah, that string breakdown in there.
- 49:01SPEAKER_01: I was like, whoa!
- 49:03SPEAKER_02: Yeah, that was blowing me away.
- 49:04SPEAKER_02: I love it, man.
- 49:05SPEAKER_02: I mean, it just it's just two of my favorite bands combined in one song by a band I've never heard of until this moment.
- 49:11SPEAKER_01: Right.
- 49:12SPEAKER_01: And I honestly I I wish they they were still around.
- 49:15SPEAKER_01: He's played with other bands before, and and and I said something to you while the song was playing.
- 49:19SPEAKER_01: We should have him on.
- 49:20SPEAKER_01: Absolutely as a guest.
- 49:22SPEAKER_01: I'd like to I'd like to hear like uh the history of the band and the song and yeah, and some of the other stuff that he's I think you remember Dominic and the Lucid?
- 49:31SPEAKER_01: I don't know for sure.
- 49:32SPEAKER_02: Uh vaguely?
- 49:33SPEAKER_01: I don't know for sure, because they were really big in Portland.
- 49:35SPEAKER_01: Right.
- 49:36SPEAKER_01: Um I think he may have played with them for a while, but I'm not but I'm not exactly sure.
- 49:40SPEAKER_02: Let's have him on the show.
- 49:41SPEAKER_01: Um so let's I just want to play a piece of the next two songs that are on here.
- 49:45SPEAKER_01: Now these do uh Ryan Sear is on these, but he did not write these.
- 49:49SPEAKER_01: Okay.
- 49:49SPEAKER_01: But I just want to give him, you know, um uh a spin, just uh just a little bit of them.
- 49:53SPEAKER_01: Uh so this is one called Stonewalled.
- 49:56SPEAKER_01: So we'll listen to like maybe up to the chorus.
- 49:58SPEAKER_01: Okay.
- 50:31SPEAKER_03: Now I fear it's gone.
- 50:34SPEAKER_03: So all inspiration disappears with the touchdown of my family.
- 50:49SPEAKER_01: What are you what you were What were you saying about that?
- 50:53SPEAKER_02: That's well it started.
- 50:55SPEAKER_02: I thought, okay, this it's country now.
- 50:57SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
- 50:58SPEAKER_02: And then then it turned a Bob Dylan-esque, right?
- 51:01SPEAKER_02: And then it went back to the Beatles.
- 51:03SPEAKER_02: To the Beatles.
- 51:03SPEAKER_02: I'm like, wow.
- 51:05SPEAKER_02: Yeah.
- 51:06SPEAKER_01: I mean I and I like and I'm like you, I I haven't heard this song.
