Speaker 1 (00:00):
FM, Chicago's number one music station. Ladies and gentlemen, it's
time to play throw Back throw Down. I am your host,
Fred's alter ego, the Great Cheese Pressed. Hi, Brittany, how
you doing? What an honor is for you to talk

(00:23):
to me? The Great d Cheese Kiki is your players
today in the throwback throw DOWNY yeah, I like the entergy.
A lot of excitement there. Now, First we have Elizabeth one.
We have Elizabeth two. I'll have you know there to Elizabeth.
This is Elizabeth High. Elizabeth number one is here, and
Jason's your player. Good morning, Elizabeth number one. That is

(00:44):
Elizabeth number one, Jason, let's go. That doesn't mean you're
going to be number one. It's just the first one
I got to. We have a number one, Okay, I'll
let you take that. I'll let you take that up
with Elizabeth number two. And Paulina is your player today. Hi,
Elizabeth number two? Hi, okay, good man, you're both number

(01:05):
one in my heart. I'll have you know. And finally
we have Hailey. Hi, Hailey, Hi, Kaylin is your player him? Yayo.
All right, guys, it's very exciting and I mute the
at home players. The rules are as followed. Eight songs
tyebreaker if necessary. Your name is your buzzer. Long we
have a game show buzzer, you have to say your
name buzz the same time we go with the game

(01:25):
show buzzer. But because people can't see that, you gotta
say your name at the same time. Okay, each of
you have a phone a friend with whom you can
confer for one point, except the winning point, which is
a rule we could probably get rid of, but we'll
keep it for now. Whatever, It's fine. Many questions, No, okay,
And if you're new to the game. Caitlyn has one

(01:46):
win so far this year. She's a previous champion many
years ago, and she and also what else am I
going to say? Oh? A throwback in this game is
defined as six and a half years old or older.
That's how we define throwback, so it could be anything
six and a half years and older. I can go
back to nineteen forty if I want to. Yeah, what

(02:07):
do they call that? Steam pump? What do they call that? What? Anything? Else? No?
What is that? The like the era where like people
wore top hats and there was like there's like a
whole someone's gonna text me, there's a I don't know.
I think it's that era. There's a hole. There was
a hole, like a Roaring twenties. You're just saying things,

(02:29):
but there was no I think it was around that
time and there was like a resurgence of the fashion.
But I forget what it was called. Someone someone is
going to let us know. Anyway, here we go song
number one, and and also I played around, I played,
I played too much. Maybe you'll hear you hear some
of the things I did today as I curated the

(02:50):
throwback throw down. Name that two metal song number one?
That is that's uh, oh my god from four two
Oh my god. I don't I believe you attended a
concert that we threw with these people. Yeah you know

(03:12):
that is Calin shut up and dance walked the moon.
That's right, that's a great sung steam punk. What I

(03:41):
was thinking, thank you sometimes you guys bail me out
and you did steampunk. Thank you, steam punk, steam punk.
I don't know. It was like it was like a
like an era of a trendy thing and it was
brought back from that I don't know the history, like
from after the war. I don't know. If only there
was a place we could find out that answer. I
believe it's called Google. But anyway, steam honk the gate

(04:02):
keeping steam pump. I was a steam pump and it
was a little different. So I was close just mixed
up a letter. You know. I hate it when that happens. Okay,
so one Kalin seven songs left in the throwback throw down. Heeky,

(04:23):
such a good song. And if you know this, we
can just go home. I want to call my girl. Okay,
well that isn't now we have to stay because I
was going to say we could leave, but if she
knows him. So Brittany and Kekey, Brittney and Kekey only

(04:45):
a guest all Brittany. That is that is at the
store by That is really not a bad guess, but
it's this store by Alanis Moore. I mean that is
a person who listens. Brittany is a listener of the program, clearly, Caylen.

(05:06):
That is Hands Cleaned by Alas, which is an underrated
Atlanta that's best forward to a few years later. Okay, steampunk.

(05:36):
It's how they dress at Burning Man. So Bob and
Rich would know about that. The DJ the DJ duo, No,
I was just you don't ever know what I'm talking about. Jesus,
It's like it's like like Dune Vibe, which we're getting
blown up because I asked for clarifications and now we're
getting like the entire history on the text line. But

(05:57):
I asked for this information. Popalyptic taking a seam pump.
It's up north. We're going. That is not where, that
is not what Bob and Rich just help you know
the dynamic duo and burning Man who run this company. Okay,
So two for Kaitlin, I mean, is anybody here, Mike
check hello, and you haven't picked up yet. You won't
get pick up on my little a little fun, having

(06:20):
some fun. So three in the throwback throw down on
the Fred Show, Calen again, that is new rules running
away with you. This is a three I got What

(07:02):
are you about? Is just coming in? Hey? Sometimes I
need I need you to inform me of what I'm
thinking of and I can't say. And the people come through.
Sometimes you come through in ways that we didn't need
you to or ask for. But that's okay, Like any family, right,
we love you and we know there's passion. Thank you.
I know you're looking out for us. You just want

(07:24):
us to get it right right, Yes, for sure, we'll
go with them. So three for Kaitlin. Five songs left
in the throwback throw down still anybody's gangs that is,
and you got a little bonus that is, come clean,
Hillary Duff, that's right. I feel like everybody has known
every one of these songs he's ever taken. Everybody's all down,

(08:15):
all right? Hillary does in the news lately for she
took it maybe more right. Yeah, it's so nice, fires
and whatnot. Well, by the way, on that note, we're
working very hard. We're negotiating currently and this is not
a joke for a a Heidi Montag and Spencer Pratt interview.

(08:36):
We have a call with their people later today to
talk about whether we can do it by these people.
What year is it up? Yeah? No, I mean I
couldn't believe when I got a text yesterday. Can I
give a Heidi Montag your number? Be sure? You absolutely may.
That's something I never ever thought would happen to me
when I was watching that show as a child, as

(08:58):
not a child, but definitely I was in college, I think,
and I was very much not anyway, So what do
number four? Age is just the number I'm ageless. I've
sounded this. It's like that executive used to say about me.
You sounded old when you were young, and you sound
old when you're old, so you'll be fine. That's why
did you get that voice? Like about what age between

(09:19):
the between the seventh and eighth grade? I came back
with no braces, this voice, and I had literally grown
a foot. Things really worked out well that year. Yeah,
not well enough, but well later. Finally four, you have
a four and there are four songs left, so at
any point you just win the game, because I guess
that's what we're doing in the throwback troll down Elizabeth

(09:43):
number two really, Yes, I am really Paulina and Elizabeth
number two bits. I'm actually trolling Kicky with that one.
Do you know the name of it? Elizabeth Cash a song?
I don't know the name of it, Yes it is.

(10:05):
It is my show, trying to get a little bit.
I don't want you to five two. We've seen the
clock the body on. That's four for Kaylin and three

(10:34):
songs left, so you'd have to run it. You have
to get all the rest of these and then you
could tie it or anybody else scores and Kaylen wins. Okay,
just to lay the lands here? Are you ready? Yes?
All right? This is a song six in the throwback
throw Down. That is calin for the wind. That is
stir fry Migo. That's right in the kitchen, like a

(11:13):
s in the kitchen in the kitchen Canon one. But
let's see the two songs left. So let's see if
anyone else can score or if Canon will just keep
just keep being No, you can keep being a winner
if you want to win. When's winning winters? Winner? Yeah,

(11:36):
go down, my God, to go down together. That's right?
Where was I in the era? Like where was I?
Can I get into music? You can guess? Is that
the chain smoker Chain Smoker's Paris to get away from
my parents? And you're so proud standing back with the

(12:00):
tower if you remember. Oh that's right, small time okay.
And then the last guys here was the last one
to complete my little threesome theme here gay clean bandit
