Speaker 1 (00:01):
The Blaze in Confused. Podcast is rated M for marijuana
no minors, but your audience is only did you did
you finish that Netflix movie yet about the World Ending?
Not yet? Not yet.
Speaker 2 (00:12):
I don't want to talk about that. Oh man, we
should spoil it for anyone. Well, I want to spoil
it for everybody because I hate the ending.
Speaker 1 (00:18):
What's it called? Uh? I don't even remember. I don't
even remember it.
Speaker 2 (00:24):
Whatever it is. He hated the ending, don't watch it? No,
it's like, uh what uh?
Speaker 1 (00:31):
Uh?
Speaker 3 (00:32):
You know, like nukes come in and Chicago is gonna
get all blown up?
Speaker 2 (00:36):
Yeah, the funck was it called? That's why we just
talked about it and watched it this week. It's like the.
Speaker 4 (00:42):
City and this, uh, you don't know, just give up,
move along? No, no, no, This is the unofficial first
question of the podcast. Here the House on Dynamite, House
of Dynamite, The House of Dynamite.
Speaker 2 (01:03):
I think that's what it tells good enough. That sounds right.
I would fall right past the name like.
Speaker 1 (01:06):
That, a house of dynamite.
Speaker 2 (01:11):
The thing is the actual Like, the concept of the
movie is pretty interesting, you know, the plot, but I
guess there's no payoff.
Speaker 1 (01:18):
Rachel Yeah, I just didn't enjoy the ending.
Speaker 3 (01:20):
Yeah, essentially, they told the same story three times. I
think it's a unique way to do a movie. But
they tell the same story three times through the eyes
of three different people.
Speaker 2 (01:29):
And I can't say, you know, seeing only half of
it or whatnot. It's kind of timely with the way
things are in the world too. It's kind of creepy.
Speaker 1 (01:37):
Getting that Meet the Press episode coming soon.
Speaker 2 (01:39):
Yeah, we can't talk about any politics, and it just
drives us nuts a little bit. But yeah, yeah, it's
the safer way to do a podcast. However, I will
say that I did see trending online. There was a
for like young kids, for like four or five six
year olds, right, it was Avanka Trump freaking holloween costume.
Come on, people, like, regardless of your political affiliation, that's
(02:00):
just like shitty parenting.
Speaker 1 (02:02):
Come on.
Speaker 2 (02:03):
So, John has no idea what our podcast is about,
and you just kind of gave him a hint. He said, Oh,
it's gonna be the first question of the night. So, John,
the podcast that you're on is a stoner trivia podcast, okay,
And we ask questions to you, and then we ask
questions to each other, and they are like topic starters
if there's a topic to start. But yeah, that's what
you're on right now. John, by the way, is in
(02:23):
a pretty cool band, Joel he is. You play him
on the radio, I do. He's in a great band
called Turning the Tide.
Speaker 3 (02:28):
Yeah, listen to that song by really really great for
our local listeners here in the Lehigh Valley.
Speaker 1 (02:33):
A band based in Nazareth, right, yep, right out of Nazareth.
Speaker 3 (02:36):
So later in the show, we'll give you, you know, the
twenty questions about being in a band, and we're gonna
preview some new music, which is so freaking cool.
Speaker 2 (02:44):
I hear you say fricking can I say fuck?
Speaker 1 (02:46):
Yeah? I just say both. But that's all right.
Speaker 2 (02:50):
Yeah, we just try to try not to minute. Yeah,
we're trying to limit that the word salad over here,
but sometimes it's just for like sentence enhancing of course.
Speaker 1 (03:01):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (03:01):
Oh I'm a big cursor. Yeah yeah, yeah. It's like
try going to like a quiet diner with this guy. Well,
that's my theory on it. It's like, let's say you
go out to eat and you're trying to say you
just got the best burger that you've had in months
and you're just like, yo, this tastes good.
Speaker 1 (03:18):
Like, Yo, this tastes fucking good.
Speaker 2 (03:19):
Yeah, change that out. Yeah, all of a sudden, you
got the enhancewer.
Speaker 1 (03:22):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (03:22):
Sure, you just hyped up the table, Like all right,
maybe I'm gonna get that next time.
Speaker 3 (03:26):
Sometimes you need the F word. It's a very important
word in the English language. For kids listening. You definitely
don't need to use the F word.
Speaker 1 (03:33):
But now you don't.
Speaker 3 (03:34):
However, though, looking back, looking back on my twenty seven
years of life on Earth, when I used to get
in trouble in school, it always used to be for
saying stupid shit and or cursing.
Speaker 2 (03:43):
Oh yeah, either saying or doing stupid shit.
Speaker 3 (03:45):
I think one of the first times I got sent
to the principal's office, I was in like first or
second grade, and I told some girl to shut the
fuck up.
Speaker 1 (03:51):
I got you beat.
Speaker 2 (03:52):
My mom will confirm my first day being sent I
think sent home was like first day of preschool. I
went in and pulled the fire alarm. Whoa my mom,
And they were like, hey, wait to make an entry
to your kid. Yeah, your kid pulled the fire alarm.
And then I was just like yeah, I said, poll here, Yeah,
which you were just following instruction.
Speaker 1 (04:11):
That was me at four years old.
Speaker 2 (04:13):
Yeah, never stopped kindergarten, first grade on until uh, I
don't know once. I feel like when I turned eighteen,
there was a switch that knew, like, you're not getting
away with the stuff anymore.
Speaker 1 (04:22):
Funny boy, that's it. Run.
Speaker 2 (04:24):
You had a good run, That's what it was. And
it all started out that fire alarm.
Speaker 1 (04:29):
Damn, I thought I was bad. Did you ever pull
a fire alarm? No?
Speaker 2 (04:32):
I know some people that did in school, and I
was see they always didn't know anything about it.
Speaker 3 (04:36):
I wonder how accurate this is, but I always heard
the rumor that the fire alarms nowadays have like die
in them blue dye that when you pull the fire alarm,
it like squirts out.
Speaker 2 (04:45):
That's what they said when I was in school too.
You think that's bullshit, I feel like it is. Right

Oh wait, hold on, uh no, hold on, Tim Allen,
Tim Allen.
Speaker 1 (20:37):
I'm trying to get it wrong so we can get
him all wrong. Oh am I wrong?
Speaker 3 (20:42):
Damn it is Guy Ah fuck?
Speaker 1 (20:46):
I thought I had it right. Wow.
Speaker 2 (20:51):
He came to this episode of Comedian. Look at this
good a friend, I am. Oh I fee again. I
feel so much better. Thank you, thanks for going along
with it. All right, let's see if you can do
it again with question three. Oh, here we go. Question three.
Speaker 1 (21:06):
All right.
Speaker 3 (21:07):
I don't know if we've ever had this category license
plate slogans.
Speaker 2 (21:11):
Okay, what a category? Right, It's gonna be hard for me.
Speaker 3 (21:14):
If you're over the age of eighty six, you love
this category license plate slogans. This state has a few
different license plate slogans. One says life Elevated, the other
says greatest snow on Earth, and last, but not least,
the Beehive State.
Speaker 1 (21:32):
What state is it? Say the first one again the elevation.
Speaker 3 (21:37):
Life Elevated, the greatest snow on Earth, and the Beehive
State Life Elevated, Greatest Snow on Earth the Beehive State.
Speaker 2 (21:54):
Now, I'm not going to ask John directly if he knows,
all right, I'm just gonna do you have any knowledge
of license plates?
Speaker 1 (22:00):
I just feel like it have to be Denver, That's
what I not a state, alright, Colorado. I'm sorry. I
went along with it. I'm sorry.
Speaker 2 (22:10):
Like the Rockies are out there, I'm just using geographical hens.
Speaker 1 (22:14):
I don't know.
Speaker 2 (22:14):
I'm just thinking like the Rockies in Denver, I altitude alright.
Speaker 1 (22:19):
Read it one more time? Come on him or me,
Jesus Christ.
Speaker 3 (22:23):
This state has a few different license plate slogans. One
says life Elevated. The other shays greatest snow on Earth
and the Beehive State.
Speaker 1 (22:32):
Greatest snow on Earth. Yes, sorry, I'm getting irritable. I have.
Speaker 2 (22:41):
I'm gonna say Arkansas. No, I was just taking a step.
It's Colorado, isn't it.
Speaker 1 (22:51):
No, It's Utah, everybody.
Speaker 2 (22:53):
Fun Well, I got that one wrong, legitimately, What.
Speaker 1 (22:57):
Do you know about Utah? I don't know about it
about Utah? What's in Utah? I have a basketball team
called the Jazz. That's it.
Speaker 2 (23:03):
It's all. Yeah, I know nothing else about Utah. Isn't
that where four corners. Right, it's one of the four
states that border each other. It's one of the four
states that borders each other.
Speaker 1 (23:15):
Oh they all meet together. Yeah, yeah, it's part of
four corners, right. Yeah.
Speaker 2 (23:18):
They have an area where you can go there and
like take a picture where all these states meet. Great,
that's it. That's all I know, I think. And it
has four letters in its name. There we go, Utah,
incredible state. Well you got one right so far. Oh
we have one more. We have one more question.
Speaker 1 (23:35):
All right. So here's the thing I didn't write out.
You're like, great, well, what am I going to Utah?
Question four? All right?
Speaker 3 (23:43):
So this is the only question that I didn't like
type out because I was driving home today and I
thought this is a good trivia question.
Speaker 1 (23:49):
Okay.
Speaker 3 (23:50):
You know most people that have to write trivia sometimes
they like think of trivia throughout their life and then
they come home and write their own questions.
Speaker 1 (23:56):
I find mine through trivia books.
Speaker 3 (23:58):
But however, today I'm driving home, I heard a song
and I thought this is a trivia question.
Speaker 1 (24:02):
So cool. Uh, you don't like the show Friends or not?
Really like you lived through it?
Speaker 4 (24:07):
Right?
Speaker 1 (24:07):
Yeah?
Speaker 2 (24:08):
So did you right to a certain degree? Yeah, I
like Friends. I'm more of a full house guy from
back then. My Friends is good, awesome. I feel like
I can't get into Friends.
Speaker 1 (24:16):
I tried.
Speaker 2 (24:16):
I went through, like, Okay, it's watchable. How many seasons
is there?
Speaker 1 (24:19):
Like nine? Too many?
Speaker 2 (24:20):
Something like that pretty much. I've seen a lot of
the show, but I never watched it like straight through her.
Speaker 3 (24:26):
Yeah, I got through like five seasons and yeah, yeah,
a bunch of Friends, New York Friends.
Speaker 1 (24:33):
Yeah, the Cat, the Smelly Cat. Yeah. I liked Roseanne grow.
I love that show.
Speaker 3 (24:42):
The one thing I will say about Roseanne, though, is
I think it got dumb quick. Like the best Roseanne
is season one through like four or five, and then
after she I tell you when it went down, when
she got all worked up like the plastic surgery years.
Speaker 2 (24:55):
That's when it started to get stupid. I thought, because
they like won the lottery, you remember that. That's right,
That's right, all right? Anyway, I keep getting derailed here,
so French. Okay, the theme song there for what's the
band that sings that show?
Speaker 3 (25:10):
The Uh? What's the band that sings the theme song
of Friends? Uh? Yeah, I'll be there for you. The
starts with an R, right, can you give me that,
Am I right? Rembrands? The rembrands? Sure, yeah, no, hold on,
(25:30):
I think it's incubus. Oh, I think it's I think
it's incubation, all right, Yeah.
Speaker 1 (25:38):
Yeah, alright.
Speaker 2 (25:40):
I was just trying to do you know, all right, Joe,
I got all mine wrong. I got a lot of
mine right and wrong, which.
Speaker 1 (25:46):
Is pretty cool. What do you mean you got a lot.
Speaker 2 (25:48):
I gave you the right answer and gave you the
wrong answer, just to make you feel better.
Speaker 3 (25:51):
Yes, again, thank you for that. Yeah, thank you for
playing along. It wasn't Slyer. No, No, he's been thinking about.
Speaker 2 (25:58):
That for a long Sure, it wasn't slab.
Speaker 1 (26:01):
That blazed and confused random thoughts.
Speaker 3 (26:07):
I djate in Delaware last night and found myself on
the beach after the gig beach was closed. You couldn't
get on it, but there was a sign there that
said no smoking, no dogs, no kites, no this, no fun, dude,
no fun.
Speaker 1 (26:20):
I should have taken a picture of it.
Speaker 3 (26:21):
Next to the no smoking, there was a thing that
said report smokers, and there was a phone number.
Speaker 2 (26:27):
Oh god, yes, this is Bethany Beach, Delaware. Oh that's why? Why?
Just very clean? They try to keep everything very nice.
There's all I know. It said minimum five hundred dollars fine.
Speaker 3 (26:39):
Yeah, of course didn't do anything that I would have
gotten five hundred dollars fine for next to that sign,
but you know it's anyway, I believe you.
Speaker 1 (26:46):
Yes, more random thoughts. Yeah, I had was that Baconfested yesterday.
Speaker 2 (26:49):
I was doing some MC work and I was doing
the costume contest, and I was like, oh, I should
get like a cool clever shirt, you know, to wear
on stage.
Speaker 1 (26:57):
And I did.
Speaker 2 (26:57):
I ordered on Amazon this shirt that said Kevin but
it was in bacon strips right and like Kevin Bacon
and it was supposed to arrive on Friday. I was
going to be at Baconfest on Saturday, and I got
this fucking notification at like seven o'clock on Friday saying
your package has been delayed for transport or something like that.
I looked online. It wasn't Norristown. And then I went
(27:20):
to Burlington, New Jersey, Like what the fuck? Why don't
I live near any of these places? Like what happened?
I don't know, But my question is I pay Amazon
money for a membership for fucking next day or two
day shipping. This has happened a couple of times. Do
I ask for refunds on shit? What what do you
(27:42):
think I should do? Honestly, I've discovered recently that returning
stuff on Amazon is indeed a beautiful thing. Oh hell yeah,
it really got Sometimes I tell you, just here's your money,
don't even return it.
Speaker 3 (27:54):
Yeah, Sometimes I feel like it's not worth it. If
it's only a couple bucks, it's not worth it. However,
like I'll give you a perfect exation in a drunken
stupid I came home and I thought, I want a
new area rug. So I bought an area rug for
like my music area over here, and I bought it
was way too fucking big, dude. It was so big
it to me. So I set it up and I
hated it. So I just literally I moved all my
(28:15):
furniture back, I packed up the carpet, and I returned
it and I got my It's like four hundred dollars, Carbet,
I got the money back.
Speaker 2 (28:23):
I like it for testing products. I'm like, is this
gonna be a good product? And if I like it,
I keep it. If I don't like it, return it.
Like you said, there's a certain price. If it's ten bucks,
maybe maybe not. But if it's like something I want
to try out and new electronic or something, so your
whole thing is, uh, you don't. It's fucking ridiculous. I'm
paying Amazon money per month for two day shipping. This
(28:44):
has happened, should happen pretty fucking often. How much you
pay for Amazon Prime?
Speaker 1 (28:48):
You know what.
Speaker 2 (28:48):
I hated that you're gonna ask that question because I've
been ninety to know what the fucking price is.
Speaker 1 (28:52):
It's it's like ten dollars, isn't it. I think so,
I'm a little confused. While you have this on the
sheet here for random shit to talk about. This is
let me read Let me read this.
Speaker 3 (29:01):
It says a passenger was found dead on an island
after being left behind on a cruise ship.
Speaker 1 (29:08):
Stop way to bring the room down.
Speaker 2 (29:12):
I wanted to talk about it because you were talking
about how much you want to go on a cruise,
and I said to you, I hate being on an
itinerary on a time schedule when I'm going to cruse,
Like the idea of being on vacation and having that sucks.
And that person didn't get to the fucking ship on
time and got stranded and died. That's why I don't
want to go on a cruise. I think it's stupid.
(29:32):
Read the last one, by the way, read the last one.
Here's what it says.
Speaker 3 (29:36):
In episode twenty three, Joel thought the spaceship that went
to the Moon was the USS Arizona. We weren't sure
at the time where that ship was actually from, but
we speculated Pearl Harbor. Then just a few days later
it was in the news that the last remaining survivor
of that ship passed away.
Speaker 1 (29:54):
It's Joel's fault, hey, because you brought it up. It's
my fault, am I right? Though? So are you saying
that I'm correct that it's the US it was from
the Pearl Harbor? I was right.
Speaker 2 (30:04):
Well, initially you were wrong though you said it was
the ship that went to the moon. Well, you know
it was wrong about that, but I was right there.
I corrected myself. Yeah, it was a good guess. Yes,
those are my random thoughts.
Speaker 5 (30:16):
They may not have all the answers, but they have
all the snacks. He's still blazed and confused.
Speaker 1 (30:24):
Podcast, we have the Munchi Minute coming up.
Speaker 3 (30:26):
Our guest today is John Lead, guitarist, Lead singer of
a local band Turning the Tide. Dude, this band kicks ass.
I don't know how else to say. Oh thanks, Bri,
I appreciate that.
Speaker 1 (30:37):
All I want is you.
Speaker 3 (30:38):
This is my favorite song personally, really want is But
you guys have new music coming soon. We're gonna preview
some of it. Tell us about this new song. It's
called in the City, Right.
Speaker 2 (30:51):
I wanted to write a song that was about someone
coming from like a rural area and being thrown into
the urbanization of like a city where you're walking through
the streets and all of a sudden, you used to
be around like cows and cornfields and now you're like
stuck with lights and people walking around, and like your
futures just unset in the city. Like if you live
(31:11):
in Lancaster and you grew up on a farm or something,
you probably know you're gonna end up on the farm
when you're older and you're raising your kids there, and
you go off to the city and you think you're
gonna become like an actor. The first day you get there,
you think you're gonna land the sick job. While you're
there and you're just you're in a completely different world
and I felt it too. Every time I go to
the city, I'm like, whoa, it is weird to surround
yourself with so many people. And while I'm there, in
(31:34):
short bursts, I love it. But when I go there,
it also gives me the appreciation of, like, come back
home and be in a small area where our biggest
city is, like Allentown, which still it's not my favorite area,
but seeing other areas makes you appreciate where you come
from too.
Speaker 1 (31:49):
See.
Speaker 2 (31:49):
That's what we talk about, you and I, Joel, because
you talk about moving to the big city and you
have these dreams. But like I think, I just I
told you that exact thing. Yeah, I think that you
would love a weekend there or a week but like,
I don't know solid about this area. You know, twenty
I knows a lot kind of more accurate intellectually, but
yeah twenty seven now, yeah, get over here.
Speaker 1 (32:13):
How old are you? Thirty thirty? You got years? All right?
Speaker 3 (32:19):
So new song in the City not out yet, but
it will be. And we're doing like what like a
little blaze and confused sneak preview here check it out
(32:43):
our friends turning the Tide their new song in the City.
Look for that soon and John, where can people get
your music?
Speaker 1 (32:49):
Everywhere? Right?
Speaker 2 (32:50):
You can find on every streaming platform that's out there,
anything from Spotify, Apple Music to Deezer, title, uh Pandora,
you know, YouTube, everything out there and find it everywhere.
So you guys have a lot of original music, but
you're still doing covers too. So there's there's gotta be
one song that just bothers you. Is there one song
that just kind of gets under your skin? You're tired
(33:11):
of playing this song? What would you say? I don't
like to play songs that I don't like, but I
guess if there's one that I play strictly for people, Yeah,
but I still enjoy it, Like I love the guitar soul.
I'm a Neil Showen fan. Don't stop believing. But again,
I'm not even hating on it, dude. Like the drum,
the drum. I'm sitting here now, I'm going to talk
it up. The drums and that song's awesome. Like I
(33:31):
appreciate God, what's his name, something Smith?
Speaker 1 (33:35):
I don't know.
Speaker 2 (33:36):
Chad loves him on drums and he showed me videos
of him drumming and he's just like his techniques. Great
Neil Show's an amazing guitarist.
Speaker 3 (33:42):
That song I would never go out of my way
to listen to on its own, however, if I'm out
and about, but exactly, and when you're in front of
a crowd of people and you see them respond so
positive that to a song positive.
Speaker 2 (33:55):
Me and Juels have that and like a Sweet Caroline,
I love playing and honest, so we do a punk
rock version of Sweet Caroline like a then we actually
mash it up with a Green Day song just the instrumentation.
We go Dan Dana Ent Dana, Dent Dana, Dad. It
didn't Dad, it dent dand it ent Dad didn't didn't.
We begin like that and it's like all fast based, dude.
Speaker 1 (34:15):
It's fun.
Speaker 2 (34:15):
The crowd just slams when we play, you know, and
like seeing something like that, it's cool because it gives
us an idea of like while we're writing music too,
and or like kind of like a hybrid band over here,
like playing our originals in a club. We kind of
like also have to look at our fan base too,
and like look at can we play just like a
rock style song or do we have to? And a
(34:35):
lot of it is putting all four corners together, here
when we get into a room and we record something like, hey,
I don't want to hate this song that we're playing,
And when we're writing something, it's the same thing when
we're learning something, I don't want to hate the song
we played. So we even play like Pink Pony Club,
We like, are we gonna rock that ship up?
Speaker 1 (34:58):
Hell yeah.
Speaker 3 (34:59):
One song, another song that I find a lot of
cover bands are always doing is Zombie by the Cranberrys,
Which you.
Speaker 2 (35:06):
Play Zombie it's so it's over play. I don't understand.
Speaker 3 (35:10):
I don't understand the hype of this song, dude, four chords,
and I mean, if you want to pick up a guitar,
that should be the first song that you try to play,
because it's very like the guitar leads are easy, you know,
on and on and on and on.
Speaker 1 (35:23):
See.
Speaker 2 (35:24):
I like this song, but I don't understand why a
club wants that song like we see it. We go
to Boston speaking of bean Town, and people just have
their phones up in groups because we don't play it
till the end of the night, Like if we're gonna
play it's gonna be like at the end of the night.
Because we like to use it as like a set ender.
Sometimes you just like having we do an ending thing
with it. Yeah, and people just keep their phones up
(35:45):
and we're like, yeah, we'll get to it.
Speaker 1 (35:46):
Yeah, we'll get to it. Yeah, Yep, we're getting there.
Speaker 4 (35:49):
Body, Yeah, zombie, don't you hate It's the new free Bird?
Speaker 1 (35:53):
It really is the new free Bird.
Speaker 3 (35:54):
I keep wanting to talk about this on the podcast,
and we keep running out of time and I can't
hit it.
Speaker 1 (35:58):
So maybe I can ask you, now.
Speaker 3 (35:59):
Yeah, if you weren't in a band, what would It's
funny because he knows because I brought this up a
billion times and we can never get to it if
you weren't in a band, And if you weren't a musician, Like,
what job would you have?
Speaker 1 (36:12):
If you didn't have the job you have now?
Speaker 2 (36:14):
Well, I'd be back in management. My other passion was
just like running the house, you know. I like doing
that shit. So I went to school. I got two
degrees in business management and business administration. I used to
run jay stakes and subs like I did like five
six locations in the league in the Lehigh Valley before
I was in music, and then I was a I
managed one of the lines down and there's a place
called Bakerly down in Forks there, like a Brioche bread place,
(36:37):
and I managed the whole like packaging side of the
facility where they like had the people with forklifts coming in,
bringing people in with palettes, and having people that hate
their job route palettes.
Speaker 3 (36:48):
And don't you think that everybody should have to work
in like food or retail. I think that every single
person everyone should experience it. Like I've run restaurants before,
I've worked delivery driver, I've been a waiter of or
like food. I've cooked on the grill, like I've done
everything in a restaurant. So I think anyone, if you
want to find out what it's like to be occupied
at a job, go work at an understaffed restaurant. Yeah
(37:11):
you we'll learn real quick where did my hours go?
And where's my money? Also too, I think, you know,
looking back, I worked at a couple restaurants growing up,
and I think it's as a sixteen year old, it's
an eye opening experience to see how a bad night,
you know, for a sixteen year old that's serving tables
is so different than a bad night from the single mother.
Speaker 1 (37:33):
That works there.
Speaker 3 (37:34):
That may for sure thirty dollars like it's it's it's
so eye opening. I think that everybody should have the
experience of working food or retail.
Speaker 1 (37:41):
I don't know.
Speaker 3 (37:42):
All right, So before we get to the munchy minute here,
so you would be if you weren't a musician, you
would be a manager of some sort. What about you
if you weren't working in like media, what would you be?
Speaker 2 (37:52):
I don't know. I think, you know, I like to
help people. I think I might be like a good therapist.
I think I would get like a lot out of
life by helping people like that. Yeah, you know, I
don't know. I like driving to like if I when
I was younger, I always wanted to be a racecar driver.
I always saw like racecar CDL was even cool when
I was a kid, Like I want to drive trucks. Yeah,
a trucker. We had a trucker on here. Had a
(38:14):
pretty good life, ye sees a lot of things.
Speaker 3 (38:16):
You know. Again, I'd love to be on my own
doing my own thing every day, just sitting there listening
to your music, cruise.
Speaker 2 (38:21):
And so yeah, CDL driver would be pretty cool. Now, No, now,
listen to what he wants to do, don't judge me,
what do you.
Speaker 3 (38:27):
Want to do?
Speaker 2 (38:28):
Scrape floors? What do you want to scrape stickers all floors?
Scrape something, scrape something, go ahead, spill it. I want
to be a pediatrist. Bro, Well, that's not really what
it is. Well, it's like a name. I Well, here's
the thing. I don't want all parts of the pediatrists job.
Now I get to finally know why someone would want
to be a feat doctor unless they like.
Speaker 1 (38:45):
No, I don't, but that's just it. I don't have
a foot fetish.
Speaker 3 (38:49):
I just like I've gotten the videos as of recently,
all over my TikTok feed and all over the reels.
Speaker 2 (38:55):
They're cool too. I like doctors. It's it's doctor pimple
four feet.
Speaker 1 (39:01):
And like the ring dingers and stuff.
Speaker 3 (39:03):
And I think it's very satisfying that you get the
feet that have the check out mine. Help me on, dude,
in fifteen years of jumping on stage, no, no, no no.
The nails, the nails. I want to cut the crazy nails.
I keep getting TikTok so that people that have, you know,
the toenails that look like free do's and like a
big hack and bake leg. Don't you want to get
in there and cut that off. You only want is
that what a pediatrician just nails pedia? It's a different
(39:26):
pet What was it again? I knew what you were
talking about. Put pedietry.
Speaker 1 (39:30):
What is it? Yeah?
Speaker 2 (39:33):
Sorry, not pediatrician. But what's it called pediatrics? Yeah, that's
a kid doctor.
Speaker 1 (39:38):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (39:38):
I don't want to do very similar words. I don't
want to do that though, to do that very close,
I get, well.
Speaker 1 (39:43):
My cousin does.
Speaker 3 (39:44):
Yeah, not a pediatrist, she's a pediatrician.
Speaker 2 (39:49):
But if you were like a pediatric podiatrist, you only
specialize in kid's feet, the diddy job.
Speaker 1 (39:58):
Oh no, good time for.
Speaker 2 (40:06):
The lays. All dress chips. Have you ever had all
dress chips? No?
Speaker 1 (40:09):
Have you ever heard of these before?
Speaker 2 (40:10):
Are just in general all dress It's very popular in
Canada or like if you can get him up in
like upstate New York. But it's coming down here a
little bit more. It's all of the flavors you can
get in one. I'm a little scared. Yeah, they're really good.
You're all separate, right if I remember correctly, Like, aren't
they the different chips in the bag?
Speaker 5 (40:27):
No?
Speaker 2 (40:27):
No, no, no, this is like all the seasonings that
you can like really get on a chip. My drummer
eats every chip and he handed me one of these
one time. I was like, yeah it was good. Yeah, yeah,
Let's see what Joel thinks. He's very uh looks very
They're not bad.
Speaker 3 (40:41):
Try it so it says that it's all in one savory,
tangy and sweet.
Speaker 1 (40:45):
They're good.
Speaker 2 (40:48):
They're wonderful. Oh yeah, man, all right at bag jeers,
now isn't it?
Speaker 5 (40:55):
Now?
Speaker 3 (40:55):
Look at this chip. Could you imagine if this was
a nail on somebody's toes? Oh god, now, wouldn't you
want to just get in there, the dust out of there?
You want to scrape that dust? And he's eating it too, well,
I don't want to eat the nose and supposed to
stimulate the clippers.
Speaker 1 (41:12):
Yeah, the chomping. That's bad. This is going bad. Lays
all dressed. What do you think? It's good? Pretty good? Right? Yeah?
Here we pass it around here? Yeah not, let's all

Speaker 3 (43:04):
M
The Blaze in Confused. Podcast is rated M for marijuana
no minors, but your audience is only did you did
you finish that Netflix movie yet about the World Ending?
Not yet? Not yet.
Speaker 2 (00:12):
I don't want to talk about that. Oh man, we
should spoil it for anyone. Well, I want to spoil
it for everybody because I hate the ending.
Speaker 1 (00:18):
What's it called? Uh? I don't even remember. I don't
even remember it.
Speaker 2 (00:24):
Whatever it is. He hated the ending, don't watch it? No,
it's like, uh what uh?
Speaker 1 (00:31):
Uh?
Speaker 3 (00:32):
You know, like nukes come in and Chicago is gonna
get all blown up?
Speaker 2 (00:36):
Yeah, the funck was it called? That's why we just
talked about it and watched it this week. It's like the.
Speaker 4 (00:42):
City and this, uh, you don't know, just give up,
move along? No, no, no, This is the unofficial first
question of the podcast. Here the House on Dynamite, House
of Dynamite, The House of Dynamite.
Speaker 2 (01:03):
I think that's what it tells good enough. That sounds right.
I would fall right past the name like.
Speaker 1 (01:06):
That, a house of dynamite.
Speaker 2 (01:11):
The thing is the actual Like, the concept of the
movie is pretty interesting, you know, the plot, but I
guess there's no payoff.
Speaker 1 (01:18):
Rachel Yeah, I just didn't enjoy the ending.
Speaker 3 (01:20):
Yeah, essentially, they told the same story three times. I
think it's a unique way to do a movie. But
they tell the same story three times through the eyes
of three different people.
Speaker 2 (01:29):
And I can't say, you know, seeing only half of
it or whatnot. It's kind of timely with the way
things are in the world too. It's kind of creepy.
Speaker 1 (01:37):
Getting that Meet the Press episode coming soon.
Speaker 2 (01:39):
Yeah, we can't talk about any politics, and it just
drives us nuts a little bit. But yeah, yeah, it's
the safer way to do a podcast. However, I will
say that I did see trending online. There was a
for like young kids, for like four or five six
year olds, right, it was Avanka Trump freaking holloween costume.
Come on, people, like, regardless of your political affiliation, that's
(02:00):
just like shitty parenting.
Speaker 1 (02:02):
Come on.
Speaker 2 (02:03):
So, John has no idea what our podcast is about,
and you just kind of gave him a hint. He said, Oh,
it's gonna be the first question of the night. So, John,
the podcast that you're on is a stoner trivia podcast, okay,
And we ask questions to you, and then we ask
questions to each other, and they are like topic starters
if there's a topic to start. But yeah, that's what
you're on right now. John, by the way, is in
(02:23):
a pretty cool band, Joel he is. You play him
on the radio, I do. He's in a great band
called Turning the Tide.
Speaker 3 (02:28):
Yeah, listen to that song by really really great for
our local listeners here in the Lehigh Valley.
Speaker 1 (02:33):
A band based in Nazareth, right, yep, right out of Nazareth.
Speaker 3 (02:36):
So later in the show, we'll give you, you know, the
twenty questions about being in a band, and we're gonna
preview some new music, which is so freaking cool.
Speaker 2 (02:44):
I hear you say fricking can I say fuck?
Speaker 1 (02:46):
Yeah? I just say both. But that's all right.
Speaker 2 (02:50):
Yeah, we just try to try not to minute. Yeah,
we're trying to limit that the word salad over here,
but sometimes it's just for like sentence enhancing of course.
Speaker 1 (03:01):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (03:01):
Oh I'm a big cursor. Yeah yeah, yeah. It's like
try going to like a quiet diner with this guy. Well,
that's my theory on it. It's like, let's say you
go out to eat and you're trying to say you
just got the best burger that you've had in months
and you're just like, yo, this tastes good.
Speaker 1 (03:18):
Like, Yo, this tastes fucking good.
Speaker 2 (03:19):
Yeah, change that out. Yeah, all of a sudden, you
got the enhancewer.
Speaker 1 (03:22):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (03:22):
Sure, you just hyped up the table, Like all right,
maybe I'm gonna get that next time.
Speaker 3 (03:26):
Sometimes you need the F word. It's a very important
word in the English language. For kids listening. You definitely
don't need to use the F word.
Speaker 1 (03:33):
But now you don't.
Speaker 3 (03:34):
However, though, looking back, looking back on my twenty seven
years of life on Earth, when I used to get
in trouble in school, it always used to be for
saying stupid shit and or cursing.
Speaker 2 (03:43):
Oh yeah, either saying or doing stupid shit.
Speaker 3 (03:45):
I think one of the first times I got sent
to the principal's office, I was in like first or
second grade, and I told some girl to shut the
fuck up.
Speaker 1 (03:51):
I got you beat.
Speaker 2 (03:52):
My mom will confirm my first day being sent I
think sent home was like first day of preschool. I
went in and pulled the fire alarm. Whoa my mom,
And they were like, hey, wait to make an entry
to your kid. Yeah, your kid pulled the fire alarm.
And then I was just like yeah, I said, poll here, Yeah,
which you were just following instruction.
Speaker 1 (04:11):
That was me at four years old.
Speaker 2 (04:13):
Yeah, never stopped kindergarten, first grade on until uh, I
don't know once. I feel like when I turned eighteen,
there was a switch that knew, like, you're not getting
away with the stuff anymore.
Speaker 1 (04:22):
Funny boy, that's it. Run.
Speaker 2 (04:24):
You had a good run, That's what it was. And
it all started out that fire alarm.
Speaker 1 (04:29):
Damn, I thought I was bad. Did you ever pull
a fire alarm? No?
Speaker 2 (04:32):
I know some people that did in school, and I
was see they always didn't know anything about it.
Speaker 3 (04:36):
I wonder how accurate this is, but I always heard
the rumor that the fire alarms nowadays have like die
in them blue dye that when you pull the fire alarm,
it like squirts out.
Speaker 2 (04:45):
That's what they said when I was in school too.
You think that's bullshit, I feel like it is. Right

Speaker 2 (18:26):
The kneecap cap, I thought, almost like a nose bone
or something. No, No, it's like you you're born with
like a cartilage that eventually turns into a knee cap.
That's what I was like talking about your nose, like
is this just cartilage and it turns into a bone.
Speaker 1 (18:40):
But maybe do you learn anything? Oh?
Speaker 2 (18:46):
Yeah, I learned a lot I got wrong, got all
for wrong this week. I hope I get something right.
One of us has got to step up here. Wait
a second, I didn't get them all wrong. I got
the BMW one correct. That's still pretty bad, though.
Speaker 3 (18:59):
I'm you should get all yours wrong too, and we'll
be wrong together.
Speaker 1 (19:03):
Question number one. We're gonna start with, Guess the year.
Guess the year?

Okay, smells like teen Spirit, hits Radio Terminator two own
the box office and Michael Jordan and the Bulls win

Final answer, Yeah, nineteen ninety one.
Speaker 2 (20:00):

He came to this episode of Comedian. Look at this
good a friend, I am. Oh I fee again. I
feel so much better. Thank you, thanks for going along
with it. All right, let's see if you can do
it again with question three. Oh, here we go. Question three.
Speaker 1 (21:06):
All right.
Speaker 3 (21:07):
I don't know if we've ever had this category license
plate slogans.
Speaker 2 (21:11):
Okay, what a category? Right, It's gonna be hard for me.
Speaker 3 (21:14):
If you're over the age of eighty six, you love
this category license plate slogans. This state has a few
different license plate slogans. One says life Elevated, the other
says greatest snow on Earth, and last, but not least,
the Beehive State.
Speaker 1 (21:32):
What state is it? Say the first one again the elevation.
Speaker 3 (21:37):
Life Elevated, the greatest snow on Earth, and the Beehive
State Life Elevated, Greatest Snow on Earth the Beehive State.
Speaker 2 (21:54):
Now, I'm not going to ask John directly if he knows,
all right, I'm just gonna do you have any knowledge
of license plates?
Speaker 1 (22:00):
I just feel like it have to be Denver, That's
what I not a state, alright, Colorado. I'm sorry. I
went along with it. I'm sorry.
Speaker 2 (22:10):
Like the Rockies are out there, I'm just using geographical hens.
Speaker 1 (22:14):
I don't know.
Speaker 2 (22:14):
I'm just thinking like the Rockies in Denver, I altitude alright.
Speaker 1 (22:19):
Read it one more time? Come on him or me,
Jesus Christ.
Speaker 3 (22:23):
This state has a few different license plate slogans. One
says life Elevated. The other shays greatest snow on Earth
and the Beehive State.
Speaker 1 (22:32):
Greatest snow on Earth. Yes, sorry, I'm getting irritable. I have.
Speaker 2 (22:41):
I'm gonna say Arkansas. No, I was just taking a step.
It's Colorado, isn't it.
Speaker 1 (22:51):
No, It's Utah, everybody.
Speaker 2 (22:53):
Fun Well, I got that one wrong, legitimately, What.
Speaker 1 (22:57):
Do you know about Utah? I don't know about it
about Utah? What's in Utah? I have a basketball team
called the Jazz. That's it.
Speaker 2 (23:03):
It's all. Yeah, I know nothing else about Utah. Isn't
that where four corners. Right, it's one of the four
states that border each other. It's one of the four
states that borders each other.
Speaker 1 (23:15):
Oh they all meet together. Yeah, yeah, it's part of
four corners, right. Yeah.
Speaker 2 (23:18):
They have an area where you can go there and
like take a picture where all these states meet. Great,
that's it. That's all I know, I think. And it
has four letters in its name. There we go, Utah,
incredible state. Well you got one right so far. Oh
we have one more. We have one more question.
Speaker 1 (23:35):
All right. So here's the thing I didn't write out.
You're like, great, well, what am I going to Utah?
Question four? All right?
Speaker 3 (23:43):
So this is the only question that I didn't like
type out because I was driving home today and I
thought this is a good trivia question.
Speaker 1 (23:49):
Okay.
Speaker 3 (23:50):
You know most people that have to write trivia sometimes
they like think of trivia throughout their life and then
they come home and write their own questions.
Speaker 1 (23:56):
I find mine through trivia books.
Speaker 3 (23:58):
But however, today I'm driving home, I heard a song
and I thought this is a trivia question.
Speaker 1 (24:02):
So cool. Uh, you don't like the show Friends or not?
Really like you lived through it?
Speaker 4 (24:07):
Right?
Speaker 1 (24:07):
Yeah?
Speaker 2 (24:08):
So did you right to a certain degree? Yeah, I
like Friends. I'm more of a full house guy from
back then. My Friends is good, awesome. I feel like
I can't get into Friends.
Speaker 1 (24:16):
I tried.
Speaker 2 (24:16):
I went through, like, Okay, it's watchable. How many seasons
is there?
Speaker 1 (24:19):
Like nine? Too many?
Speaker 2 (24:20):
Something like that pretty much. I've seen a lot of
the show, but I never watched it like straight through her.
Speaker 3 (24:26):
Yeah, I got through like five seasons and yeah, yeah,
a bunch of Friends, New York Friends.
Speaker 1 (24:33):
Yeah, the Cat, the Smelly Cat. Yeah. I liked Roseanne grow.
I love that show.
Speaker 3 (24:42):
The one thing I will say about Roseanne, though, is
I think it got dumb quick. Like the best Roseanne
is season one through like four or five, and then
after she I tell you when it went down, when
she got all worked up like the plastic surgery years.
Speaker 2 (24:55):
That's when it started to get stupid. I thought, because
they like won the lottery, you remember that. That's right,
That's right, all right? Anyway, I keep getting derailed here,
so French. Okay, the theme song there for what's the
band that sings that show?
Speaker 3 (25:10):
The Uh? What's the band that sings the theme song
of Friends? Uh? Yeah, I'll be there for you. The
starts with an R, right, can you give me that,
Am I right? Rembrands? The rembrands? Sure, yeah, no, hold on,
(25:30):
I think it's incubus. Oh, I think it's I think
it's incubation, all right, Yeah.
Speaker 1 (25:38):
Yeah, alright.
Speaker 2 (25:40):
I was just trying to do you know, all right, Joe,
I got all mine wrong. I got a lot of
mine right and wrong, which.
Speaker 1 (25:46):
Is pretty cool. What do you mean you got a lot.
Speaker 2 (25:48):
I gave you the right answer and gave you the
wrong answer, just to make you feel better.
Speaker 3 (25:51):
Yes, again, thank you for that. Yeah, thank you for
playing along. It wasn't Slyer. No, No, he's been thinking about.
Speaker 2 (25:58):
That for a long Sure, it wasn't slab.
Speaker 1 (26:01):
That blazed and confused random thoughts.
Speaker 3 (26:07):
I djate in Delaware last night and found myself on
the beach after the gig beach was closed. You couldn't
get on it, but there was a sign there that
said no smoking, no dogs, no kites, no this, no fun, dude,
no fun.
Speaker 1 (26:20):
I should have taken a picture of it.
Speaker 3 (26:21):
Next to the no smoking, there was a thing that
said report smokers, and there was a phone number.
Speaker 2 (26:27):
Oh god, yes, this is Bethany Beach, Delaware. Oh that's why? Why?
Just very clean? They try to keep everything very nice.
There's all I know. It said minimum five hundred dollars fine.
Speaker 3 (26:39):
Yeah, of course didn't do anything that I would have
gotten five hundred dollars fine for next to that sign,
but you know it's anyway, I believe you.
Speaker 1 (26:46):
Yes, more random thoughts. Yeah, I had was that Baconfested yesterday.
Speaker 2 (26:49):
I was doing some MC work and I was doing
the costume contest, and I was like, oh, I should
get like a cool clever shirt, you know, to wear
on stage.
Speaker 1 (26:57):
And I did.
Speaker 2 (26:57):
I ordered on Amazon this shirt that said Kevin but
it was in bacon strips right and like Kevin Bacon
and it was supposed to arrive on Friday. I was
going to be at Baconfest on Saturday, and I got
this fucking notification at like seven o'clock on Friday saying
your package has been delayed for transport or something like that.
I looked online. It wasn't Norristown. And then I went
(27:20):
to Burlington, New Jersey, Like what the fuck? Why don't
I live near any of these places? Like what happened?
I don't know, But my question is I pay Amazon
money for a membership for fucking next day or two
day shipping. This has happened a couple of times. Do
I ask for refunds on shit? What what do you
(27:42):
think I should do? Honestly, I've discovered recently that returning
stuff on Amazon is indeed a beautiful thing. Oh hell yeah,
it really got Sometimes I tell you, just here's your money,
don't even return it.
Speaker 3 (27:54):
Yeah, Sometimes I feel like it's not worth it. If
it's only a couple bucks, it's not worth it. However,
like I'll give you a perfect exation in a drunken
stupid I came home and I thought, I want a
new area rug. So I bought an area rug for
like my music area over here, and I bought it
was way too fucking big, dude. It was so big
it to me. So I set it up and I
hated it. So I just literally I moved all my
(28:15):
furniture back, I packed up the carpet, and I returned
it and I got my It's like four hundred dollars, Carbet,
I got the money back.
Speaker 2 (28:23):
I like it for testing products. I'm like, is this
gonna be a good product? And if I like it,
I keep it. If I don't like it, return it.
Like you said, there's a certain price. If it's ten bucks,
maybe maybe not. But if it's like something I want
to try out and new electronic or something, so your
whole thing is, uh, you don't. It's fucking ridiculous. I'm
paying Amazon money per month for two day shipping. This
(28:44):
has happened, should happen pretty fucking often. How much you
pay for Amazon Prime?
Speaker 1 (28:48):
You know what.
Speaker 2 (28:48):
I hated that you're gonna ask that question because I've
been ninety to know what the fucking price is.
Speaker 1 (28:52):
It's it's like ten dollars, isn't it. I think so,
I'm a little confused. While you have this on the
sheet here for random shit to talk about. This is
let me read Let me read this.
Speaker 3 (29:01):
It says a passenger was found dead on an island
after being left behind on a cruise ship.
Speaker 1 (29:08):
Stop way to bring the room down.
Speaker 2 (29:12):
I wanted to talk about it because you were talking
about how much you want to go on a cruise,
and I said to you, I hate being on an
itinerary on a time schedule when I'm going to cruse,
Like the idea of being on vacation and having that sucks.
And that person didn't get to the fucking ship on
time and got stranded and died. That's why I don't
want to go on a cruise. I think it's stupid.
(29:32):
Read the last one, by the way, read the last one.
Here's what it says.
Speaker 3 (29:36):
In episode twenty three, Joel thought the spaceship that went
to the Moon was the USS Arizona. We weren't sure
at the time where that ship was actually from, but
we speculated Pearl Harbor. Then just a few days later
it was in the news that the last remaining survivor
of that ship passed away.
Speaker 1 (29:54):
It's Joel's fault, hey, because you brought it up. It's
my fault, am I right? Though? So are you saying
that I'm correct that it's the US it was from
the Pearl Harbor? I was right.
Speaker 2 (30:04):
Well, initially you were wrong though you said it was
the ship that went to the moon. Well, you know
it was wrong about that, but I was right there.
I corrected myself. Yeah, it was a good guess. Yes,
those are my random thoughts.
Speaker 5 (30:16):
They may not have all the answers, but they have
all the snacks. He's still blazed and confused.
Speaker 1 (30:24):
Podcast, we have the Munchi Minute coming up.
Speaker 3 (30:26):
Our guest today is John Lead, guitarist, Lead singer of
a local band Turning the Tide. Dude, this band kicks ass.
I don't know how else to say. Oh thanks, Bri,
I appreciate that.
Speaker 1 (30:37):
All I want is you.
Speaker 3 (30:38):
This is my favorite song personally, really want is But
you guys have new music coming soon. We're gonna preview
some of it. Tell us about this new song. It's
called in the City, Right.
Speaker 2 (30:51):
I wanted to write a song that was about someone
coming from like a rural area and being thrown into
the urbanization of like a city where you're walking through
the streets and all of a sudden, you used to
be around like cows and cornfields and now you're like
stuck with lights and people walking around, and like your
futures just unset in the city. Like if you live
(31:11):
in Lancaster and you grew up on a farm or something,
you probably know you're gonna end up on the farm
when you're older and you're raising your kids there, and
you go off to the city and you think you're
gonna become like an actor. The first day you get there,
you think you're gonna land the sick job. While you're
there and you're just you're in a completely different world
and I felt it too. Every time I go to
the city, I'm like, whoa, it is weird to surround
yourself with so many people. And while I'm there, in
(31:34):
short bursts, I love it. But when I go there,
it also gives me the appreciation of, like, come back
home and be in a small area where our biggest
city is, like Allentown, which still it's not my favorite area,
but seeing other areas makes you appreciate where you come
from too.
Speaker 1 (31:49):
See.
Speaker 2 (31:49):
That's what we talk about, you and I, Joel, because
you talk about moving to the big city and you
have these dreams. But like I think, I just I
told you that exact thing. Yeah, I think that you
would love a weekend there or a week but like,
I don't know solid about this area. You know, twenty
I knows a lot kind of more accurate intellectually, but
yeah twenty seven now, yeah, get over here.
Speaker 1 (32:13):
How old are you? Thirty thirty? You got years? All right?
Speaker 3 (32:19):
So new song in the City not out yet, but
it will be. And we're doing like what like a
little blaze and confused sneak preview here check it out
(32:43):
our friends turning the Tide their new song in the City.
Look for that soon and John, where can people get
your music?
Speaker 1 (32:49):
Everywhere? Right?
Speaker 2 (32:50):
You can find on every streaming platform that's out there,
anything from Spotify, Apple Music to Deezer, title, uh Pandora,
you know, YouTube, everything out there and find it everywhere.
So you guys have a lot of original music, but
you're still doing covers too. So there's there's gotta be
one song that just bothers you. Is there one song
that just kind of gets under your skin? You're tired
(33:11):
of playing this song? What would you say? I don't
like to play songs that I don't like, but I
guess if there's one that I play strictly for people, Yeah,
but I still enjoy it, Like I love the guitar soul.
I'm a Neil Showen fan. Don't stop believing. But again,
I'm not even hating on it, dude. Like the drum,
the drum. I'm sitting here now, I'm going to talk
it up. The drums and that song's awesome. Like I
(33:31):
appreciate God, what's his name, something Smith?
Speaker 1 (33:35):
I don't know.
Speaker 2 (33:36):
Chad loves him on drums and he showed me videos
of him drumming and he's just like his techniques. Great
Neil Show's an amazing guitarist.
Speaker 3 (33:42):
That song I would never go out of my way
to listen to on its own, however, if I'm out
and about, but exactly, and when you're in front of
a crowd of people and you see them respond so
positive that to a song positive.
Speaker 2 (33:55):
Me and Juels have that and like a Sweet Caroline,
I love playing and honest, so we do a punk
rock version of Sweet Caroline like a then we actually
mash it up with a Green Day song just the instrumentation.
We go Dan Dana Ent Dana, Dent Dana, Dad. It
didn't Dad, it dent dand it ent Dad didn't didn't.
We begin like that and it's like all fast based, dude.
Speaker 1 (34:15):
It's fun.
Speaker 2 (34:15):
The crowd just slams when we play, you know, and
like seeing something like that, it's cool because it gives
us an idea of like while we're writing music too,
and or like kind of like a hybrid band over here,
like playing our originals in a club. We kind of
like also have to look at our fan base too,
and like look at can we play just like a
rock style song or do we have to? And a
(34:35):
lot of it is putting all four corners together, here
when we get into a room and we record something like, hey,
I don't want to hate this song that we're playing,
And when we're writing something, it's the same thing when
we're learning something, I don't want to hate the song
we played. So we even play like Pink Pony Club,
We like, are we gonna rock that ship up?
Speaker 1 (34:58):
Hell yeah.
Speaker 3 (34:59):
One song, another song that I find a lot of
cover bands are always doing is Zombie by the Cranberrys,
Which you.
Speaker 2 (35:06):
Play Zombie it's so it's over play. I don't understand.
Speaker 3 (35:10):
I don't understand the hype of this song, dude, four chords,
and I mean, if you want to pick up a guitar,
that should be the first song that you try to play,
because it's very like the guitar leads are easy, you know,
on and on and on and on.
Speaker 1 (35:23):
See.
Speaker 2 (35:24):
I like this song, but I don't understand why a
club wants that song like we see it. We go
to Boston speaking of bean Town, and people just have
their phones up in groups because we don't play it
till the end of the night, Like if we're gonna
play it's gonna be like at the end of the night.
Because we like to use it as like a set ender.
Sometimes you just like having we do an ending thing
with it. Yeah, and people just keep their phones up
(35:45):
and we're like, yeah, we'll get to it.
Speaker 1 (35:46):
Yeah, we'll get to it. Yeah, Yep, we're getting there.
Speaker 4 (35:49):
Body, Yeah, zombie, don't you hate It's the new free Bird?
Speaker 1 (35:53):
It really is the new free Bird.
Speaker 3 (35:54):
I keep wanting to talk about this on the podcast,
and we keep running out of time and I can't
hit it.
Speaker 1 (35:58):
So maybe I can ask you, now.
Speaker 3 (35:59):
Yeah, if you weren't in a band, what would It's
funny because he knows because I brought this up a
billion times and we can never get to it if
you weren't in a band, And if you weren't a musician, Like,
what job would you have?
Speaker 1 (36:12):
If you didn't have the job you have now?
Speaker 2 (36:14):
Well, I'd be back in management. My other passion was
just like running the house, you know. I like doing
that shit. So I went to school. I got two
degrees in business management and business administration. I used to
run jay stakes and subs like I did like five
six locations in the league in the Lehigh Valley before
I was in music, and then I was a I
managed one of the lines down and there's a place
called Bakerly down in Forks there, like a Brioche bread place,
(36:37):
and I managed the whole like packaging side of the
facility where they like had the people with forklifts coming in,
bringing people in with palettes, and having people that hate
their job route palettes.
Speaker 3 (36:48):
And don't you think that everybody should have to work
in like food or retail. I think that every single
person everyone should experience it. Like I've run restaurants before,
I've worked delivery driver, I've been a waiter of or
like food. I've cooked on the grill, like I've done
everything in a restaurant. So I think anyone, if you
want to find out what it's like to be occupied
at a job, go work at an understaffed restaurant. Yeah
(37:11):
you we'll learn real quick where did my hours go?
And where's my money? Also too, I think, you know,
looking back, I worked at a couple restaurants growing up,
and I think it's as a sixteen year old, it's
an eye opening experience to see how a bad night,
you know, for a sixteen year old that's serving tables
is so different than a bad night from the single mother.
Speaker 1 (37:33):
That works there.
Speaker 3 (37:34):
That may for sure thirty dollars like it's it's it's
so eye opening. I think that everybody should have the
experience of working food or retail.
Speaker 1 (37:41):
I don't know.
Speaker 3 (37:42):
All right, So before we get to the munchy minute here,
so you would be if you weren't a musician, you
would be a manager of some sort. What about you
if you weren't working in like media, what would you be?
Speaker 2 (37:52):
I don't know. I think, you know, I like to
help people. I think I might be like a good therapist.
I think I would get like a lot out of
life by helping people like that. Yeah, you know, I
don't know. I like driving to like if I when
I was younger, I always wanted to be a racecar driver.
I always saw like racecar CDL was even cool when
I was a kid, Like I want to drive trucks. Yeah,
a trucker. We had a trucker on here. Had a
(38:14):
pretty good life, ye sees a lot of things.
Speaker 3 (38:16):
You know. Again, I'd love to be on my own
doing my own thing every day, just sitting there listening
to your music, cruise.
Speaker 2 (38:21):
And so yeah, CDL driver would be pretty cool. Now, No, now,
listen to what he wants to do, don't judge me,
what do you.
Speaker 3 (38:27):
Want to do?
Speaker 2 (38:28):
Scrape floors? What do you want to scrape stickers all floors?
Scrape something, scrape something, go ahead, spill it. I want
to be a pediatrist. Bro, Well, that's not really what
it is. Well, it's like a name. I Well, here's
the thing. I don't want all parts of the pediatrists job.
Now I get to finally know why someone would want
to be a feat doctor unless they like.
Speaker 1 (38:45):
No, I don't, but that's just it. I don't have
a foot fetish.
Speaker 3 (38:49):
I just like I've gotten the videos as of recently,
all over my TikTok feed and all over the reels.
Speaker 2 (38:55):
They're cool too. I like doctors. It's it's doctor pimple
four feet.
Speaker 1 (39:01):
And like the ring dingers and stuff.
Speaker 3 (39:03):
And I think it's very satisfying that you get the
feet that have the check out mine. Help me on, dude,
in fifteen years of jumping on stage, no, no, no no.
The nails, the nails. I want to cut the crazy nails.
I keep getting TikTok so that people that have, you know,
the toenails that look like free do's and like a
big hack and bake leg. Don't you want to get
in there and cut that off. You only want is
that what a pediatrician just nails pedia? It's a different
(39:26):
pet What was it again? I knew what you were
talking about. Put pedietry.
Speaker 1 (39:30):
What is it? Yeah?
Speaker 2 (39:33):
Sorry, not pediatrician. But what's it called pediatrics? Yeah, that's
a kid doctor.
Speaker 1 (39:38):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (39:38):
I don't want to do very similar words. I don't
want to do that though, to do that very close,
I get, well.
Speaker 1 (39:43):
My cousin does.
Speaker 3 (39:44):
Yeah, not a pediatrist, she's a pediatrician.
Speaker 2 (39:49):

Ruthie's Table 4
For more than 30 years The River Cafe in London, has been the home-from-home of artists, architects, designers, actors, collectors, writers, activists, and politicians. Michael Caine, Glenn Close, JJ Abrams, Steve McQueen, Victoria and David Beckham, and Lily Allen, are just some of the people who love to call The River Cafe home. On River Cafe Table 4, Rogers sits down with her customers—who have become friends—to talk about food memories. Table 4 explores how food impacts every aspect of our lives. “Foods is politics, food is cultural, food is how you express love, food is about your heritage, it defines who you and who you want to be,” says Rogers. Each week, Rogers invites her guest to reminisce about family suppers and first dates, what they cook, how they eat when performing, the restaurants they choose, and what food they seek when they need comfort. And to punctuate each episode of Table 4, guests such as Ralph Fiennes, Emily Blunt, and Alfonso Cuarón, read their favourite recipe from one of the best-selling River Cafe cookbooks. Table 4 itself, is situated near The River Cafe’s open kitchen, close to the bright pink wood-fired oven and next to the glossy yellow pass, where Ruthie oversees the restaurant. You are invited to take a seat at this intimate table and join the conversation.
