Speaker 1 (00:01):
The Blaze in Confused. Podcast is rated AM for marijuana,
no miners, but your audience is only that phone. Sound good, dude.
Speaker 2 (00:09):
This morning I walked six miles. I went biking for
about twelve. I got home just before I came here.
It took a shower.
Speaker 1 (00:15):
I almost ate it in the shower, like I slipped.
I almost ate it. You never heard that term. How
I've heard that term. But what a weird term? I
what do you mean? What do you mean? I should
have had he listen.
Speaker 3 (00:26):
We've all tried to eat it at one point I
can't quite reach. Now, I'm just like, man, I'm forty.
Do I qualify for a life alert now? Like you
don't have to worry about that kind of thing.
Speaker 4 (00:36):
Oh, you guys are gonna shit out of me because
I'm older than you guys.
Speaker 1 (00:41):
Wait, can you swear on this?
Speaker 3 (00:42):
Oh?
Speaker 1 (00:43):
Yeah, absolutely, Okay, I'm not used to that.
Speaker 3 (00:45):
Yeah, it's it's very refreshing. However, I will admit he
abuses it. I abuse it for him. Probably it's weird
to be behind a microphone and say the word fuck.
Speaker 4 (00:53):
I've been doing radio for thirty years, but in my
real life I'm filthy. But you can turn it on
and off. He can just hit the switch, you know.
So people always know that, Like, how do you not
curse on the air.
Speaker 1 (01:05):
I don't know. You just ye train yourself. I've come
close a few times. Yeah, I've bet.
Speaker 4 (01:09):
I have a quick story about a guy who when
I started at Zzo, we actually had an overnight guy,
and before he would go on there to do a break,
he'd have his headphones on, he'd have the microphone on
but potted down, and he would just go fuck, fuck,
pussy shit.
Speaker 1 (01:26):
And we was getting it out of his system.
Speaker 4 (01:29):
Right I'm in the studio and after the break, I
was like, what was that? And he's like, I have
to do that because I'm so afraid I'm gonna swear.
Speaker 1 (01:37):
Like it was his first radio job. He's like, I
have to do that every time. That is a great
story doing that. Should I start doing that now? I
want to get your opinion on this.
Speaker 3 (01:46):
I find myself, as of recently, going down to the
mail room of this apartment building and pick up my packages,
and I see other packages sitting there, and I find
myself looking at the name on the package and then
looking up that person on social media, just see what
they look like.
Speaker 1 (02:01):
And I want to know if this is fucking weird.
Speaker 4 (02:03):
No, And I have a quick story about that, as
I was at a book fair yesterday and I got
this really cool old book.
Speaker 1 (02:10):
And yes, what's playing with that is I know what
a book fair is, bitch. So I'm flipping through.
Speaker 4 (02:15):
I'm flipping through the pages, and a fucking one of
those old like where you you run the credit card machine?
Oh yeah, across like one of those slips was in
the pages, like the woman's name and her credit card
number from when she originally bought the book. And I'm like,
that's bad. She's lucky I got it because I'm just
gonna shred it. But I looked her up on social media.
Speaker 1 (02:35):
Of course you did? You found her? Oh did you
message her? No? Oh you should have sent her a
picture of the slip and be like look what I got. No, no, no, no,
not look what I got? Sound creepy.
Speaker 3 (02:46):
No, I wouldn't say look what I got, but more
like again, like you said, no, You're lucky that it's
me that I'm the one that got it, because I'm
gonna just disregard it and toss it in the trash
after like chop it up. I'm friends with a lot
of people that live in this apartment building, but I
also don't know.
Speaker 1 (03:02):
A lot of other people that live in this apartment building, so.
Speaker 3 (03:04):
I like looking them up on social media also because
like I want to look up what people do for
a living. And I know this sounds ridiculous, but I'm
fascinated by the fact that people have like real job jobs.
Speaker 1 (03:15):
Yeah I do too.
Speaker 4 (03:17):
It is very interesting for me to hear what other
people do in your building.
Speaker 3 (03:21):
Well, especially then I look on their Facebook profile and
they're like doctors and lawyers and prosecutors and vets, and
they're very like, hush hush.
Speaker 1 (03:29):
About when you like move in here. Yeah that's good. Well,
which is good. There's a lot of privacy because if
you want to research them, just go look at the packages.
So Blake's our radio friend for a long time.
Speaker 3 (03:39):
It's very cool to have Blake sitting in my apartment
because I used to listen to Blake on the rail.

first time watching this movie.

I was like, it was good, but oh, I love
I guess if I watched it as a kid or
you know, I'm much more impressionable.

getting a big movie guy like engrossed in it and
lost it.

Speaker 3 (18:44):
I had McDonald's last night, had Wendy's today because it's
just always it's like the fuck. Which We're going to
talk about fast food later. I want to get your
opinion on something in regards to fast food. But anyway,
here's your fast food question. Name the restaurant founded in
nineteen twenty one in Wichita, Kansas. That's considered to be
(19:05):
the oldest fast food hamburger chain. Name the restaurant founded
in nineteen twenty one in Wichita, Kansas, that's considered to
be the oldest fast food hamburger chain.
Speaker 1 (19:25):
Is White Castle.
Speaker 3 (19:29):
That's to consider them a burger joint. I mean, even
though like they're known for their sliders, what we don't
consider them. It's not like somewhere I think to go
to bert Berger.
Speaker 1 (19:37):
That's all. I've never had White Castle. It's probably best
knowing your bathroom.
Speaker 4 (19:41):
I went back like a couple of weeks ago, like, oh,
I haven't had this in a while. That used to
be awesome, Like I used to get a hanker and
to go there.
Speaker 1 (19:49):
I went back and I'm like, oh no, yeah, yeah.
Speaker 3 (19:51):
The other thing that I've never had fast food was again,
I love fast food. I'll be the first one I
meant fast food Alfacino over here. I'm getting fast food
all the time. Shake Shack, which I just saw, didn't
you post so on Facebook? You were just a shake shack.
Speaker 1 (20:01):
Yeah.
Speaker 4 (20:01):
My son got to pick where he wanted to go
for his birthday dinner and he shake Shack and I
was like, all right, dude, that's where you want to
go and how was your shake shack experience? It's all right, yeah,
like your average fast food burger there for smash burgers, right,
they're really thin, thin, They have a fried breaded pickles,
really good with the sauce.
Speaker 1 (20:21):
I'm not a pickle guy. You're not a pickle guy.
My dad's a pickle head. Apparently, the go ahead. If
you're lost, they probably are too. They'll blazed and confused podcast.
Speaker 3 (20:34):
All right, So, speaking of fast food, Jesus is love.
Ok I went to a fast food establishment about a
month ago. You know, we won't name them or anything,
but I'll tell you what rhymes with lick Donald's.
Speaker 1 (20:47):
Okay, Okay, So anyway, I pulled my ritual post.
Speaker 3 (20:51):
Gig post, any gig post, playing in a band, post
doing a wedding, anything, I gotta get like fast food
at midnight or one o'clock in the morning. I got
a through the drive through and get like, you know,
a double quarter pounder with cheese and a ten piece
chicken nugget.
Speaker 4 (21:05):
That's my thing, The double quarter pounder with cheese. Ya,
that's my favorite thing there.
Speaker 3 (21:10):
Anyway, So I pull in the drive through, there's a
long ass line That's the one thing I'll say now
is like I don't think fast food is necessarily fast
at all anymore. It's just not like they ought to
call it not so fast food because it's really when's
the last time you had fast food and you thought, wow,
I actually got this fast.
Speaker 1 (21:30):
Not to sound like a bitch, but I was pretty good.
Speaker 3 (21:32):
No, no, Well, and here's the thing though, I remember
not that long ago when fast food really was fast. Yeah,
suddenly it has gone downhill. It seems like post COVID,
you know, absolutely, which I get it.
Speaker 1 (21:44):
Huh.
Speaker 3 (21:44):
They're making ship money, you know, I go, I understand. However, people,
well this is the problem. So let me tell you.
So I go through the drive through about a month
ago after a wedding. Starvin got the dog in the car,
and everything is my parents watch the dog. So the
dog's fucking going nuts. We're waiting in the drive through
for a long time, probably like twenty minutes if I
had a guess. Then I finally get to the little
(22:06):
kiosk thing where you order. Are you ordering on the
McDonald's app? No, well, then you'd sit there and you
wait even longer. Right then finally she comes back after
five minutes and she goes, uh, can I take your order?
And I said yeah, I'll take a double quarter pounder
with cheese. She goes okay, yeah, hang on one second,
and then it was like another five minutes after she
said hang on, I'm thinking what is going on here?
Speaker 1 (22:26):
So finally she comes.
Speaker 3 (22:29):
Back then and she goes, okay, yeah, a big mac,
and I'm like, no, I said a double quarter pound
of the trees. Long pause, and then she goes, yeah,
next time, you can just say a number five and
said exactly like that.
Speaker 1 (22:41):
I could not believe it, dude, she said it exactly
like there.
Speaker 3 (22:44):
She was like, yeah, you can just say a number
five next time. And then I pulled up and honestly,
like they didn't even say anything to you anymore, even
like today I got Wendy's today, she didn't say anything
to me, no, like have a good day, no ooh,
what can I get for you?
Speaker 1 (22:58):
Like nobody's like chipper and happy, and like no customer
service does no FREMI on that anymo. I know when
was the marker of it going downhill? Covid covid you
think I think after that, they're like, we don't give
a fuck.
Speaker 3 (23:11):
Yeah, and again, Like I hate to throw shade because
I'd be saying the same shit if I worked there. However,
I don't know. I feel like I worked in food
not that long ago. When I finally pulled up to
the window at McDonald's with this girl. She had her
AirPods in like she was listening to freaking music the
whole time. Dude, we would get our asses handed to
us or the restaurants I worked at if we did that,
(23:32):
I don't know. I feel like there's just a different
standard now. Yes, anyway, I throw it. I thought I
would hurt today. I was at a rock concert last night.
I was hooting and hollering. Joe Joel played last night
with the Craig Thatcher band. Oh yeah, at Amass Community Park.
Speaker 1 (23:50):
But it was really fun.
Speaker 2 (23:51):
It was a great show. Uh, they were rocking. It
was really a really great time. We were singing along
and I love the people dancing.
Speaker 1 (23:58):
In the front. Dude. Yeah, there was people having the
time of their life there, like really moving their bodies,
like really really really shaking it.
Speaker 2 (24:05):
How about that lady that had a dog in her
backpack and that couldn't wait to meet you last night?
Speaker 1 (24:10):
Is that a listener? I don't know. Oh, I have
no idea.
Speaker 2 (24:13):
I saw her coming up with this dog in her backpack,
and then she got to the front of the stage
and like turned her back to show the dog to Joel.
Speaker 1 (24:19):
I don't know if no, no, no. She dropped a
gift on the stage for me. Oh what did she
give you? She Oh, this thing.
Speaker 3 (24:25):
It's a keyholder, but it's like a jeep Oh that's cool. Right, Yeah,
I'm gonna hang this up.
Speaker 1 (24:30):
I like this a lot.
Speaker 2 (24:31):
Yeah, you don't have enough on the walls. I always
thought about, Yeah, how you could have more things on
the walls.
Speaker 1 (24:36):
So this is the thing about my apartment. I don't know. Yes,
there's like seventy five pictures on the wall. I like
stuff to look at. I always have. I wanted to
be like the Joel Museum when you're in here. That's
the thing in this biziness, you get that stuff. Yeah.
I have a Nirvana platinum album up on my way.
I love that. Does it have your name on it
or does it have Zeezi on it? I could have
gotten my name on it. I didn't know that till after,
(24:58):
so that kind of sucks.
Speaker 4 (24:59):
But you're right, it's like that's the coolest thing on
my wall and I still look at it and I'm
like that.
Speaker 1 (25:04):
You know, I enjoy that. That's number one. Just feel
like radio people typically have a lot of cool stuff. Yeah,
eight x ten's.
Speaker 4 (25:10):
You have autographs with the bands and you know, and
stuff like that. Some of them are signed, some of
them are not. I don't even care if they're signed
or not. I prefer the ones where it was a
real moment and I remember meeting them and what we
talked about and how cool they were, and it's just photos.
Speaker 1 (25:23):
Yeah, you know, mostly not really stuff. What's your item's
biggest starstruck moment. Wow, that's a good question, because I
feel like too.
Speaker 3 (25:30):
You were working in radio in the heyday of you know,
the artists came to town, they stopped by the radio
station like they had to, you know what I mean.
Speaker 4 (25:37):
Like a lot because crock rock was at its peak
and it was the place to play for a lot
of like mid level bands that were known but not huge,
and they were accessible and every single one of them
would come into the studio for an interview that day
and then go to soundcheck or whatever. I like doing interviews,
and I guess the program director at the time thought
I did a good job because I would get them all,
(25:58):
so I did a lot. I don't know about starstruck,
but Dave Mustaine was a little intimidating. Yeah yeah, nice
guy but really smart, really sharp, but his whole presence
he was just really intimidating. Not really starstruck by anything.
But can you be starstruck if you're on the phone
with somebody and you're just shitting bricks and you're.
Speaker 1 (26:16):
Like, yeah, oh. I was like that with Dan Ackroyd. Okay.
Then Henry Rollins because I'm a huge fan.
Speaker 4 (26:22):
I have all his books, you know, I've seen his
spoken word thing probably like eight times over the years,
and I couldn't tell if he thought it was a
good interview or not. He was gracious and he you know,
thoughtfully answered all the questions, but it was on the
phone and I was sweating.
Speaker 1 (26:37):
Yeah, what about you?
Speaker 3 (26:37):
Joe Lindsay Buckingham from Fleetwood Mac was cool. Oh man,
he's really cool.
Speaker 1 (26:41):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (26:42):
I remember the first time that I had my like
classic meet and greet, like the radio station meeting greet.
There's not a lot of meeting and not a lot
of greeting. You wait in line, you wait in line,
You wait in line some more, You get up there,
you have your twenty seconds of wow, this is fucking cool,
You shake their hand, you to take a picture, and
you're on your way. My interaction with artists is never
on like a personal level enough of interviewing them for
(27:04):
the most part.
Speaker 1 (27:04):
Yet you know, like you again, you know, radio is
very different now.
Speaker 3 (27:08):
Yeah, it's very different now than when I was listening
to Again, this is cool to have fucking Blake in mind.
Speaker 4 (27:13):
I mean, i'd be on the day since they're in
the studio and they're going to crock rock right after
it was afternoon drive, but I'd have him in there
for like close to an hour, yeah, forty five minutes.
Speaker 1 (27:23):
Yeah, just live like no one's like wrap it up,
wrap it up.
Speaker 2 (27:26):
Yeah, you know, I think one of the best scenarios
where I'm at a celebrity. I was really excited to
meet Rivers Cuomo of school. Yeah, and he was so
awkward when I met him. Really, I have this funny memory,
like he came out and they just got off stage.
We were back with a bunch of listeners and we
were doing like a whole thing. He comes out and
he's got this sweater that he was wearing on stage,
(27:47):
and he was like, I don't know how should I
wear this sweater. Should I like put it around my
waist or should I put it over like a scholar
around his neck, you know that kind of thing.
Speaker 1 (27:54):
And I was like, I don't know, man, where the
hell you want to wear it?
Speaker 2 (27:58):
We really concerned about how he was gonna wear his
sweater for these photos.
Speaker 1 (28:02):
That was just really funny to me, Chester Bennington. That
was starstruck.
Speaker 4 (28:06):
You'd think the things you're gonna say, and then you
get up there, thank you, just kind of move along.
It was, you know, it was a meet and Greek
kind of situation. Yeah, but it was the first night
of the tour when he was with stp Wow, just
completing that tour, and the first night other than like
a warm up show in La was in Bethlehem. That
was cool and it was just for a moment, I
(28:27):
got a photo, shook his hand, and I'd say that's
probably the only starstruck one, just because you know, he's
so awesome.
Speaker 2 (28:33):
Dan Ackroyd called the radio station one time and he
called a day early and at the time, Michaels and
Lane were the morning show and they were supposed to
do an interview with him on the phone, and the
phone was ringing, right, the hotline was going off, and
I'm like, all right, I'll go grab it. So I
pick up the phone and he goes, hey, dan Ackroyd
for Michaels and Lane and I was like what And
(28:53):
he goes dan Ackroyd for Michaels and Lane and I
was like, you fucking kidding me? Anyway, he laughed, he
was like really cool, and then he kept talking more
and dan Ackroyd has such a specific voice, you know
what I mean.
Speaker 1 (29:08):
And then I was like, holy shit, this is really
fucking dank.
Speaker 2 (29:11):
And I told him that I was a huge fan
of apologies for nerding out for a second, but I'm
the Ghostbusters for Christ's sake.
Speaker 1 (29:17):
Growing up. That was huge to me.
Speaker 3 (29:19):
You know, I don't know movies enough that like, okay,
you said Ghostbusters, but dan Ackroyd, I'm drawing a blank,
Like what else should I know from dan Ackroyd? You
ever watched Tommy Boy No Saturday Night Live here? Why
don't you go through This would be a fun little game.
Why don't you go through a list of movies and
ask me if I've seen them all right, because I
(29:40):
guarantee you there's not a lot. Oh man, I'll tell
you the movies I have seen that. I really like
Toy Story Titanic.
Speaker 1 (29:48):
Which is unbelievable because it's like four hours long. Like Titanic,
that's a great movie. I agree with you on that.
What else? The boy in the stripe pajamas.
Speaker 3 (29:57):
I don't know why that comes up when I watched
that recently and I thought, Okay, this is a great movie.
Speaker 2 (30:03):
How about like, you know, iconic movies like The Godfather. Here,
that's what we'll do.
Speaker 3 (30:11):
The Shawshank Redemption. I think I tried to once, but
I fell asleep. Never got back to that one after
that one. Now The Dark Knight. The Dark Knight, oh
with Heath Ledger. Yeah, yeah, that came out when I
was like in the fourth grade.
Speaker 1 (30:25):
That was a big deal. I probably didn't see The
Godfather Part two, I take it. Now. Pulp fiction. How
about Schindler's List. That's the guy from Taking Right.
Speaker 2 (30:38):
Yeah, Liam, I always get him and Leslie Nielson and
Leslie Nielsen's like my comedic icon naked naked gun guy
Liam Neeson and Liam Leslie Nielson.
Speaker 1 (30:50):
Leslie Nielson lesbian what Leslie Nielson? Have you seen Airplane?
Have you seen them?
Speaker 3 (30:57):
How about Forrest Gump? Love Forrest Gump. That's another movie
I love, okay because there's great music in it. Oh yeah, great, great.
That's the only thing I remember watching that first off.
I remember watching that for the first time when I
was in like the third grade, and that's kind of
the first time that I saw like boobs for the
first time, and it's like, oh, whoa.
Speaker 1 (31:14):
And I also remember when it was on television.
Speaker 3 (31:16):
When it was on TV, there would always be like
scenes where my parents would be like, you have to
go in the other room.
Speaker 1 (31:23):
Watching this part of it. And then I also remember.
Speaker 3 (31:25):
That we had it on VHS, and that would be
one of the movies that I would watch all the
time as a little kid. And you could like pause
it at just the right point that when she took
her bra off in the one scene where it's like
raining outside and he runs into her dorm, she takes
her shirt off and then she takes her bra off.
You could posit it just the right car and you'd
(31:46):
see like just the outline of her nipple, just the outline, and.
Speaker 4 (31:49):
It was just all you need is all you needed.
My experience with that was Phoebe Kate's Fast Times.
Speaker 1 (31:58):
Have you ever seen that? I've seen that movie. I
like that, I have. It's an a movie. It's a
great movie.
Speaker 2 (32:02):
What about Star Wars? Oh my god, I don't like
Fight Club Step Brothers. How about The Green Mile? Oh yeah,
with John Coffee, I've seen that one.
Speaker 4 (32:14):
Emmett Otter's jug band Christmas never heard of it. I've
never heard of that either.
Speaker 1 (32:19):
We'll talk later. It's awesome. That's awesome. It's real. It's awesome.
Nail and Paling Terminator, Terminator too, the better one. Back
to the Future. Oh yeah, I love that movie. Did
you watch all of them? Uh? Yeah, I think show.
I only really remember the first one though. That's all
you need to know. Man. Anyway, it was so cool
to have Blake Dan and you know, I remember Stripper Tuesday.
(32:40):
That was actually not my idea.
Speaker 4 (32:42):
I mean I was the first and only person to
do that, but uh, you would think it would have
been my idea, yes, because that was like trying to
use my powers for evil any chance I could get. Yeah,
but that was actually my program director's idea. She was like,
what do you think yes, I'll do it, you know,
but that just kind of gave me the idea of
having them in. But I think I came up with
the stripper trivia part of it. Unbelievably hard questions, like
(33:05):
ridiculously hard questions that no one would know. You get
it wrong. You got to take an item of clothing off. Yeah,
and I'm throwing like it was super easy one once
in a while, and sometimes they'd still get those wrong,
which was hilarious and uh yeah, just you know, get
them naked in the studio.
Speaker 2 (33:18):
Fun fact, back in the day, when I was younger
and when that was going on, I used to watch
these Ezio webcam that used to be on remember that
thing and now on Stripper Tuesday they would put a
sign in front of it so you couldn't watch it,
but I try.
Speaker 3 (33:30):
I would try to sign in front of it. I
would try anyway, Zeezio had a webcam. That's pretty fucking yeah,
I forgot so it'd be one of four.
Speaker 1 (33:36):
I remember, such a radio nerd and loved it and
just wanted to be and see into that world.
Speaker 3 (33:40):
You know.
Speaker 1 (33:41):
Ninety nine percent of the times it was just boring
as hell. Yeah, but you couldn't see on Stripper Tuesday.
I had a lot of fun times. Yeah, I was
there ninety six to two thousand and six a decade,
the first two years and nights and then eight years
in afternoon drive. So I'm proud of it.
Speaker 4 (33:56):
I'm proud to be, you know, part of the legacy
of that radio station, because I mean, what is it now,
forty years as a rock Station's that's great, cool, And
I'm proud of you, Joel.
Speaker 1 (34:07):
You are in that lineage. Now we're in the same list.
But let me tell you. The first time I met
you talk about Starstruck. The first time I met Blake,
it was Becker's fault. I've had a different job.
Speaker 4 (34:17):
I'm not in radio anymore in the Lehigh Valley, and
I was just driving by and I'm oh, the middle
of the day. Part of my job is driving around
to different businesses. So I'll stop in and say hi,
you know, to Becker, and he's like, oh, I got
somebody that wants to meet you. I'm like, okay, cool.
We go in the studio, Joel's there and he's like,
oh my god, I'm so glad to meet you. He's like,
I grew up listening to you, but that made me
(34:41):
feel old. But then I said, oh, on zz oh
because that was the earlier station. Yeah, He's like no, no, no,
on this one more recent times, and I was like, wow,
how old are you?
Speaker 3 (34:52):
You know?
Speaker 1 (34:52):
And I told you like, you know, numerous times since then.
I'm so proud of you. Thank you, mam. I appreciate it.
Speaker 2 (34:57):
Yeah, one of the coolest guys in the business. Blake
dan In, thanks so much for joining us today. Thanks guys,
thanks for hanging That was fun. Hope it didn't butt
in too much.
Speaker 1 (35:04):
I like the games.
Speaker 3 (35:05):
You need to go home and listen to the first
episode and listen to how Bob Holder. But I had
to tell him multiple times that if he wanted to talk,
he needed to raise.
Speaker 1 (35:13):
His hand, you know, like a toddler. That's how we
did it. Blake again, thank you so much for coming on.
That was fun. Episode four of the books. Yeah, how
can people find you?
Speaker 3 (35:23):
So you're still on the radio, And I mean, don't
don't cut yourself short here, You're still a radio guy.
Speaker 4 (35:27):
Yeah, on weekends in Philadelphia. It's a rock station in Philadelphia.
You could probably figure it out. So, yeah, you know,
I still love doing it sweet. You're a good guy,
good friend. Thanks for being on the Blazed and Confused
podcast until next time.
Speaker 5 (35:41):
My friends Blazed and Confused podcast with Becker and Joel
don't forget to subscribe, spark out and joined us next
Time
The Blaze in Confused. Podcast is rated AM for marijuana,
no miners, but your audience is only that phone. Sound good, dude.
Speaker 2 (00:09):
This morning I walked six miles. I went biking for
about twelve. I got home just before I came here.
It took a shower.
Speaker 1 (00:15):
I almost ate it in the shower, like I slipped.
I almost ate it. You never heard that term. How
I've heard that term. But what a weird term? I
what do you mean? What do you mean? I should
have had he listen.
Speaker 3 (00:26):
We've all tried to eat it at one point I
can't quite reach. Now, I'm just like, man, I'm forty.
Do I qualify for a life alert now? Like you
don't have to worry about that kind of thing.
Speaker 4 (00:36):
Oh, you guys are gonna shit out of me because
I'm older than you guys.
Speaker 1 (00:41):
Wait, can you swear on this?
Speaker 3 (00:42):
Oh?
Speaker 1 (00:43):
Yeah, absolutely, Okay, I'm not used to that.
Speaker 3 (00:45):
Yeah, it's it's very refreshing. However, I will admit he
abuses it. I abuse it for him. Probably it's weird
to be behind a microphone and say the word fuck.
Speaker 4 (00:53):
I've been doing radio for thirty years, but in my
real life I'm filthy. But you can turn it on
and off. He can just hit the switch, you know.
So people always know that, Like, how do you not
curse on the air.
Speaker 1 (01:05):
I don't know. You just ye train yourself. I've come
close a few times. Yeah, I've bet.
Speaker 4 (01:09):
I have a quick story about a guy who when
I started at Zzo, we actually had an overnight guy,
and before he would go on there to do a break,
he'd have his headphones on, he'd have the microphone on
but potted down, and he would just go fuck, fuck,
pussy shit.
Speaker 1 (01:26):
And we was getting it out of his system.
Speaker 4 (01:29):
Right I'm in the studio and after the break, I
was like, what was that? And he's like, I have
to do that because I'm so afraid I'm gonna swear.
Speaker 1 (01:37):
Like it was his first radio job. He's like, I
have to do that every time. That is a great
story doing that. Should I start doing that now? I
want to get your opinion on this.
Speaker 3 (01:46):
I find myself, as of recently, going down to the
mail room of this apartment building and pick up my packages,
and I see other packages sitting there, and I find
myself looking at the name on the package and then
looking up that person on social media, just see what
they look like.
Speaker 1 (02:01):
And I want to know if this is fucking weird.
Speaker 4 (02:03):
No, And I have a quick story about that, as
I was at a book fair yesterday and I got
this really cool old book.
Speaker 1 (02:10):
And yes, what's playing with that is I know what
a book fair is, bitch. So I'm flipping through.
Speaker 4 (02:15):
I'm flipping through the pages, and a fucking one of
those old like where you you run the credit card machine?
Oh yeah, across like one of those slips was in
the pages, like the woman's name and her credit card
number from when she originally bought the book. And I'm like,
that's bad. She's lucky I got it because I'm just
gonna shred it. But I looked her up on social media.
Speaker 1 (02:35):
Of course you did? You found her? Oh did you
message her? No? Oh you should have sent her a
picture of the slip and be like look what I got. No, no, no, no,
not look what I got? Sound creepy.
Speaker 3 (02:46):
No, I wouldn't say look what I got, but more
like again, like you said, no, You're lucky that it's
me that I'm the one that got it, because I'm
gonna just disregard it and toss it in the trash
after like chop it up. I'm friends with a lot
of people that live in this apartment building, but I
also don't know.
Speaker 1 (03:02):
A lot of other people that live in this apartment building, so.
Speaker 3 (03:04):
I like looking them up on social media also because
like I want to look up what people do for
a living. And I know this sounds ridiculous, but I'm
fascinated by the fact that people have like real job jobs.
Speaker 1 (03:15):
Yeah I do too.
Speaker 4 (03:17):
It is very interesting for me to hear what other
people do in your building.
Speaker 3 (03:21):
Well, especially then I look on their Facebook profile and
they're like doctors and lawyers and prosecutors and vets, and
they're very like, hush hush.
Speaker 1 (03:29):
About when you like move in here. Yeah that's good. Well,
which is good. There's a lot of privacy because if
you want to research them, just go look at the packages.
So Blake's our radio friend for a long time.
Speaker 3 (03:39):
It's very cool to have Blake sitting in my apartment
because I used to listen to Blake on the rail.
Speaker 2 (03:44):
He ended up being one of the most awesome, kind hearted,
very just like real radio people. You don't doesn't happen
very often, seriously, very much. A great guy, cool, calm, collected,
very unlike Joel Well well you're cool but common quest.
Speaker 1 (04:00):
Also, do share an office with you? And you know
you're very alone?
Speaker 2 (04:04):
Man, I love you too, and we're so happy to
have you on episode four of the Blaze to Confuse podcast,
which we're gonna start right about now.
Speaker 5 (04:11):
Welcome to the Blazed and Confused podcast with Becker and Joel,
the trivia podcast where the questions are high, and so
are they hate trying to pluck your curiosity and line
up some knowledge though. Blazed and Confused podcast starts now.
Speaker 1 (04:32):
Hello, Hello, welcome, Welcome, Welcome, Hello, welcome. That's great love that.
Speaker 2 (04:36):
Thank you, Blake professional, right, It's fun to hear from
a person who really late.
Speaker 1 (04:41):
Blake knows is ready to see where.
Speaker 3 (04:42):
We're trying to make a podcast that sounds kind of
like a radio show.
Speaker 1 (04:45):
So that's that's the goal.
Speaker 4 (04:47):
And I told you guys before that I have not
heard the other episodes because I wanted to come in,
you know, kind of blind to this and just hang
out with friends for sure, you know what I mean,
and then I'll listen to the other ones later.
Speaker 3 (04:58):
Yeah, okay, good, Well, you you know what we have
to ask you, because we asked all our guests in
the past.
Speaker 1 (05:02):
Episode what do you do? You know a lot about
Bob Holder? What do you think about him? I think
Bob is hilarious.
Speaker 4 (05:09):
We don't hang out, we don't get together, but he
is a character. He's the most non sales guy sales guy, yeah,
I've ever met.
Speaker 3 (05:19):
So anyway, we got to get Bob back on them.
He's gonna have to come back. Should we get to

Speaker 2 (15:16):
I visited my parents earlier, and my mom called my
dad a pickle head. She was like, it's over there,
you picklehead. And I was like, what the far he goes? Oh,
that's not even the worst she calls me. I'm like,
what's one of the worst he goes? Sometimes she calls
me a penis header? Just imagining my parents.
Speaker 1 (15:37):
Did this is more proper, you know question number one?
Speaker 3 (15:44):
All right, So I like to give you classic movies
for my first question. Here o classic movies. Name the
city in which the Wizard of Oz lived. Dude, think
I know I've only seen the Wizard of Oz one
time one. I was like twenty one.
Speaker 1 (16:05):
What wow? Honestly, you know, I'm not a movie guy. Movies.
I love the Wizard of Oz.
Speaker 5 (16:11):
Uh do you know it?
Speaker 1 (16:13):
I think, so find already? Yeah? Yeah? Is it Emerald City?
It was an Emerald city.
Speaker 3 (16:20):
When I was with my hands, I was like diamonds
or something like that. I was like trying to figure
out it.
Speaker 1 (16:25):
I hate movies. I don't watch movies.
Speaker 3 (16:27):
What I find myself watching that like once a year
on average, I watched it once and I remember my
my friend being like, I can't believe this is your
first time watching this movie.
Speaker 1 (16:35):
And I honestly I watched it.
Speaker 2 (16:36):
I was like, it was good, but oh, I love
I guess if I watched it as a kid or
you know, I'm much more impressionable.
Speaker 4 (16:42):
I love watching movies all the time. I just love
getting a big movie guy like engrossed in it and
lost it.
Speaker 1 (16:48):
Same. Yeah, yeah, I don't have the attention span.
Speaker 3 (16:50):
It doesn't allow me to My rule believe that is
my rule with movies is that I'll only watch it
if it's an hour and a half or less.
Speaker 1 (16:57):
Yeah, it cuts out a lot of movies.
Speaker 3 (16:59):
Basically like with seth rogen in it. Question two, okay,
category food and stuff. What spice is known as the
King of Spices and it's native to southwest India?
Speaker 1 (17:18):
Is it curry? No, that's logical. The answer is black pepper.
Believe I do know.
Speaker 3 (17:24):
Oh shit, I don't want to click that. I wanted
to click this one. I'll take the first one, black pepper.
Speaker 1 (17:31):
Boy.
Speaker 3 (17:32):
I know we're not keeping score or anything, but I
think I got all my questions right, and you've gotten
all yours.
Speaker 1 (17:37):
Wrong so far as question three.
Speaker 3 (17:43):
In nineteen seventy three, this soda went by the nickname
the Uncola.
Speaker 1 (17:52):
Yeah, I know it tak him a hint?
Speaker 4 (17:54):
Yeah, how about a hint? Well, think about what cola
looks like. This is the uncola, the opposite, So like
a cola is a darker soda. Was it sprite or
seven up?
Speaker 1 (18:10):
It is seven up? All right? Very good, very good,
very good. Thanks for the hent. You're around in nineteen
seventy three, right barely.
Speaker 4 (18:20):
I was still in diapers, but I remember drinking the
uncola because it was that for a while.
Speaker 1 (18:25):
Yeah, you drank that while you were in diapers. No
Question four twenty what okay? Fast food? Taco Bell? What?
Speaker 3 (18:38):
No, let's not Taco Bell? Fast food? Man, I tell
you what fast food is like my obsession.
Speaker 1 (18:44):
It's bad.
Speaker 3 (18:44):
I had McDonald's last night, had Wendy's today because it's
just always it's like the fuck. Which We're going to
talk about fast food later. I want to get your
opinion on something in regards to fast food. But anyway,
here's your fast food question. Name the restaurant founded in
nineteen twenty one in Wichita, Kansas. That's considered to be
(19:05):
the oldest fast food hamburger chain. Name the restaurant founded
in nineteen twenty one in Wichita, Kansas, that's considered to
be the oldest fast food hamburger chain.
Speaker 1 (19:25):
Is White Castle.
Speaker 3 (19:29):
That's to consider them a burger joint. I mean, even
though like they're known for their sliders, what we don't
consider them. It's not like somewhere I think to go
to bert Berger.
Speaker 1 (19:37):
That's all. I've never had White Castle. It's probably best
knowing your bathroom.
Speaker 4 (19:41):
I went back like a couple of weeks ago, like, oh,
I haven't had this in a while. That used to
be awesome, Like I used to get a hanker and
to go there.
Speaker 1 (19:49):
I went back and I'm like, oh no, yeah, yeah.
Speaker 3 (19:51):
The other thing that I've never had fast food was again,
I love fast food. I'll be the first one I
meant fast food Alfacino over here. I'm getting fast food
all the time. Shake Shack, which I just saw, didn't
you post so on Facebook? You were just a shake shack.
Speaker 1 (20:01):
Yeah.
Speaker 4 (20:01):
My son got to pick where he wanted to go
for his birthday dinner and he shake Shack and I
was like, all right, dude, that's where you want to
go and how was your shake shack experience? It's all right, yeah,
like your average fast food burger there for smash burgers, right,
they're really thin, thin, They have a fried breaded pickles,
really good with the sauce.
Speaker 1 (20:21):
I'm not a pickle guy. You're not a pickle guy.
My dad's a pickle head. Apparently, the go ahead. If
you're lost, they probably are too. They'll blazed and confused podcast.
Speaker 3 (20:34):
All right, So, speaking of fast food, Jesus is love.
Ok I went to a fast food establishment about a
month ago. You know, we won't name them or anything,
but I'll tell you what rhymes with lick Donald's.
Speaker 1 (20:47):
Okay, Okay, So anyway, I pulled my ritual post.
Speaker 3 (20:51):
Gig post, any gig post, playing in a band, post
doing a wedding, anything, I gotta get like fast food
at midnight or one o'clock in the morning. I got
a through the drive through and get like, you know,
a double quarter pounder with cheese and a ten piece
chicken nugget.
Speaker 4 (21:05):
That's my thing, The double quarter pounder with cheese. Ya,
that's my favorite thing there.
Speaker 3 (21:10):
Anyway, So I pull in the drive through, there's a
long ass line That's the one thing I'll say now
is like I don't think fast food is necessarily fast
at all anymore. It's just not like they ought to
call it not so fast food because it's really when's
the last time you had fast food and you thought, wow,
I actually got this fast.
Speaker 1 (21:30):
Not to sound like a bitch, but I was pretty good.
Speaker 3 (21:32):
No, no, Well, and here's the thing though, I remember
not that long ago when fast food really was fast. Yeah,
suddenly it has gone downhill. It seems like post COVID,
you know, absolutely, which I get it.
Speaker 1 (21:44):
Huh.
Speaker 3 (21:44):
They're making ship money, you know, I go, I understand. However, people,
well this is the problem. So let me tell you.
So I go through the drive through about a month
ago after a wedding. Starvin got the dog in the car,
and everything is my parents watch the dog. So the
dog's fucking going nuts. We're waiting in the drive through
for a long time, probably like twenty minutes if I
had a guess. Then I finally get to the little
(22:06):
kiosk thing where you order. Are you ordering on the
McDonald's app? No, well, then you'd sit there and you
wait even longer. Right then finally she comes back after
five minutes and she goes, uh, can I take your order?
And I said yeah, I'll take a double quarter pounder
with cheese. She goes okay, yeah, hang on one second,
and then it was like another five minutes after she
said hang on, I'm thinking what is going on here?
Speaker 1 (22:26):
So finally she comes.
Speaker 3 (22:29):
Back then and she goes, okay, yeah, a big mac,
and I'm like, no, I said a double quarter pound
of the trees. Long pause, and then she goes, yeah,
next time, you can just say a number five and
said exactly like that.
Speaker 1 (22:41):
I could not believe it, dude, she said it exactly
like there.
Speaker 3 (22:44):
She was like, yeah, you can just say a number
five next time. And then I pulled up and honestly,
like they didn't even say anything to you anymore, even
like today I got Wendy's today, she didn't say anything
to me, no, like have a good day, no ooh,
what can I get for you?
Speaker 1 (22:58):
Like nobody's like chipper and happy, and like no customer
service does no FREMI on that anymo. I know when
was the marker of it going downhill? Covid covid you
think I think after that, they're like, we don't give
a fuck.
Speaker 3 (23:11):
Yeah, and again, Like I hate to throw shade because
I'd be saying the same shit if I worked there. However,
I don't know. I feel like I worked in food
not that long ago. When I finally pulled up to
the window at McDonald's with this girl. She had her
AirPods in like she was listening to freaking music the
whole time. Dude, we would get our asses handed to
us or the restaurants I worked at if we did that,
(23:32):
I don't know. I feel like there's just a different
standard now. Yes, anyway, I throw it. I thought I
would hurt today. I was at a rock concert last night.
I was hooting and hollering. Joe Joel played last night
with the Craig Thatcher band. Oh yeah, at Amass Community Park.
Speaker 1 (23:50):
But it was really fun.
Speaker 2 (23:51):
It was a great show. Uh, they were rocking. It
was really a really great time. We were singing along
and I love the people dancing.
Speaker 1 (23:58):
In the front. Dude. Yeah, there was people having the
time of their life there, like really moving their bodies,
like really really really shaking it.
Speaker 2 (24:05):
How about that lady that had a dog in her
backpack and that couldn't wait to meet you last night?
Speaker 1 (24:10):
Is that a listener? I don't know. Oh, I have
no idea.
Speaker 2 (24:13):
I saw her coming up with this dog in her backpack,
and then she got to the front of the stage
and like turned her back to show the dog to Joel.
Speaker 1 (24:19):
I don't know if no, no, no. She dropped a
gift on the stage for me. Oh what did she
give you? She Oh, this thing.
Speaker 3 (24:25):
It's a keyholder, but it's like a jeep Oh that's cool. Right, Yeah,
I'm gonna hang this up.
Speaker 1 (24:30):
I like this a lot.
Speaker 2 (24:31):
Yeah, you don't have enough on the walls. I always
thought about, Yeah, how you could have more things on
the walls.
Speaker 1 (24:36):
So this is the thing about my apartment. I don't know. Yes,
there's like seventy five pictures on the wall. I like
stuff to look at. I always have. I wanted to
be like the Joel Museum when you're in here. That's
the thing in this biziness, you get that stuff. Yeah.
I have a Nirvana platinum album up on my way.
I love that. Does it have your name on it
or does it have Zeezi on it? I could have
gotten my name on it. I didn't know that till after,
(24:58):
so that kind of sucks.
Speaker 4 (24:59):
But you're right, it's like that's the coolest thing on
my wall and I still look at it and I'm
like that.
Speaker 1 (25:04):
You know, I enjoy that. That's number one. Just feel
like radio people typically have a lot of cool stuff. Yeah,
eight x ten's.
Speaker 4 (25:10):
You have autographs with the bands and you know, and
stuff like that. Some of them are signed, some of
them are not. I don't even care if they're signed
or not. I prefer the ones where it was a
real moment and I remember meeting them and what we
talked about and how cool they were, and it's just photos.
Speaker 1 (25:23):
Yeah, you know, mostly not really stuff. What's your item's
biggest starstruck moment. Wow, that's a good question, because I
feel like too.
Speaker 3 (25:30):
You were working in radio in the heyday of you know,
the artists came to town, they stopped by the radio
station like they had to, you know what I mean.
Speaker 4 (25:37):
Like a lot because crock rock was at its peak
and it was the place to play for a lot
of like mid level bands that were known but not huge,
and they were accessible and every single one of them
would come into the studio for an interview that day
and then go to soundcheck or whatever. I like doing interviews,
and I guess the program director at the time thought
I did a good job because I would get them all,
(25:58):
so I did a lot. I don't know about starstruck,
but Dave Mustaine was a little intimidating. Yeah yeah, nice
guy but really smart, really sharp, but his whole presence
he was just really intimidating. Not really starstruck by anything.
But can you be starstruck if you're on the phone
with somebody and you're just shitting bricks and you're.
Speaker 1 (26:16):
Like, yeah, oh. I was like that with Dan Ackroyd. Okay.
Then Henry Rollins because I'm a huge fan.
Speaker 4 (26:22):
I have all his books, you know, I've seen his
spoken word thing probably like eight times over the years,
and I couldn't tell if he thought it was a
good interview or not. He was gracious and he you know,
thoughtfully answered all the questions, but it was on the
phone and I was sweating.
Speaker 1 (26:37):
Yeah, what about you?
Speaker 3 (26:37):
Joe Lindsay Buckingham from Fleetwood Mac was cool. Oh man,
he's really cool.
Speaker 1 (26:41):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (26:42):
I remember the first time that I had my like
classic meet and greet, like the radio station meeting greet.
There's not a lot of meeting and not a lot
of greeting. You wait in line, you wait in line,
You wait in line some more, You get up there,
you have your twenty seconds of wow, this is fucking cool,
You shake their hand, you to take a picture, and
you're on your way. My interaction with artists is never
on like a personal level enough of interviewing them for
(27:04):
the most part.
Speaker 1 (27:04):
Yet you know, like you again, you know, radio is
very different now.
Speaker 3 (27:08):
Yeah, it's very different now than when I was listening
to Again, this is cool to have fucking Blake in mind.
Speaker 4 (27:13):
I mean, i'd be on the day since they're in
the studio and they're going to crock rock right after
it was afternoon drive, but I'd have him in there
for like close to an hour, yeah, forty five minutes.
Speaker 1 (27:23):
Yeah, just live like no one's like wrap it up,
wrap it up.
Speaker 2 (27:26):
Yeah, you know, I think one of the best scenarios
where I'm at a celebrity. I was really excited to
meet Rivers Cuomo of school. Yeah, and he was so
awkward when I met him. Really, I have this funny memory,
like he came out and they just got off stage.
We were back with a bunch of listeners and we
were doing like a whole thing. He comes out and
he's got this sweater that he was wearing on stage,
(27:47):
and he was like, I don't know how should I
wear this sweater. Should I like put it around my
waist or should I put it over like a scholar
around his neck, you know that kind of thing.
Speaker 1 (27:54):
And I was like, I don't know, man, where the
hell you want to wear it?
Speaker 2 (27:58):
We really concerned about how he was gonna wear his
sweater for these photos.
Speaker 1 (28:02):
That was just really funny to me, Chester Bennington. That
was starstruck.
Speaker 4 (28:06):
You'd think the things you're gonna say, and then you
get up there, thank you, just kind of move along.
It was, you know, it was a meet and Greek
kind of situation. Yeah, but it was the first night
of the tour when he was with stp Wow, just
completing that tour, and the first night other than like
a warm up show in La was in Bethlehem. That
was cool and it was just for a moment, I
(28:27):
got a photo, shook his hand, and I'd say that's
probably the only starstruck one, just because you know, he's
so awesome.
Speaker 2 (28:33):
Dan Ackroyd called the radio station one time and he
called a day early and at the time, Michaels and
Lane were the morning show and they were supposed to
do an interview with him on the phone, and the
phone was ringing, right, the hotline was going off, and
I'm like, all right, I'll go grab it. So I
pick up the phone and he goes, hey, dan Ackroyd
for Michaels and Lane and I was like what And
(28:53):
he goes dan Ackroyd for Michaels and Lane and I
was like, you fucking kidding me? Anyway, he laughed, he
was like really cool, and then he kept talking more
and dan Ackroyd has such a specific voice, you know
what I mean.
Speaker 1 (29:08):
And then I was like, holy shit, this is really
fucking dank.
Speaker 2 (29:11):
And I told him that I was a huge fan
of apologies for nerding out for a second, but I'm
the Ghostbusters for Christ's sake.
Speaker 1 (29:17):
Growing up. That was huge to me.
Speaker 3 (29:19):
You know, I don't know movies enough that like, okay,
you said Ghostbusters, but dan Ackroyd, I'm drawing a blank,
Like what else should I know from dan Ackroyd? You
ever watched Tommy Boy No Saturday Night Live here? Why
don't you go through This would be a fun little game.
Why don't you go through a list of movies and
ask me if I've seen them all right, because I
(29:40):
guarantee you there's not a lot. Oh man, I'll tell
you the movies I have seen that. I really like
Toy Story Titanic.
Speaker 1 (29:48):
Which is unbelievable because it's like four hours long. Like Titanic,
that's a great movie. I agree with you on that.
What else? The boy in the stripe pajamas.
Speaker 3 (29:57):
I don't know why that comes up when I watched
that recently and I thought, Okay, this is a great movie.
Speaker 2 (30:03):
How about like, you know, iconic movies like The Godfather. Here,
that's what we'll do.
Speaker 3 (30:11):
The Shawshank Redemption. I think I tried to once, but
I fell asleep. Never got back to that one after
that one. Now The Dark Knight. The Dark Knight, oh
with Heath Ledger. Yeah, yeah, that came out when I
was like in the fourth grade.
Speaker 1 (30:25):
That was a big deal. I probably didn't see The
Godfather Part two, I take it. Now. Pulp fiction. How
about Schindler's List. That's the guy from Taking Right.
Speaker 2 (30:38):
Yeah, Liam, I always get him and Leslie Nielson and
Leslie Nielsen's like my comedic icon naked naked gun guy
Liam Neeson and Liam Leslie Nielson.
Speaker 1 (30:50):
Leslie Nielson lesbian what Leslie Nielson? Have you seen Airplane?
Have you seen them?
Speaker 3 (30:57):
How about Forrest Gump? Love Forrest Gump. That's another movie
I love, okay because there's great music in it. Oh yeah, great, great.
That's the only thing I remember watching that first off.
I remember watching that for the first time when I
was in like the third grade, and that's kind of
the first time that I saw like boobs for the
first time, and it's like, oh, whoa.
Speaker 1 (31:14):
And I also remember when it was on television.
Speaker 3 (31:16):
When it was on TV, there would always be like
scenes where my parents would be like, you have to
go in the other room.
Speaker 1 (31:23):
Watching this part of it. And then I also remember.
Speaker 3 (31:25):
That we had it on VHS, and that would be
one of the movies that I would watch all the
time as a little kid. And you could like pause
it at just the right point that when she took
her bra off in the one scene where it's like
raining outside and he runs into her dorm, she takes
her shirt off and then she takes her bra off.
You could posit it just the right car and you'd
(31:46):
see like just the outline of her nipple, just the outline, and.
Speaker 4 (31:49):
It was just all you need is all you needed.
My experience with that was Phoebe Kate's Fast Times.
Speaker 1 (31:58):
Have you ever seen that? I've seen that movie. I
like that, I have. It's an a movie. It's a
great movie.
Speaker 2 (32:02):
What about Star Wars? Oh my god, I don't like
Fight Club Step Brothers. How about The Green Mile? Oh yeah,
with John Coffee, I've seen that one.
Speaker 4 (32:14):
Emmett Otter's jug band Christmas never heard of it. I've
never heard of that either.
Speaker 1 (32:19):
We'll talk later. It's awesome. That's awesome. It's real. It's awesome.
Nail and Paling Terminator, Terminator too, the better one. Back
to the Future. Oh yeah, I love that movie. Did
you watch all of them? Uh? Yeah, I think show.
I only really remember the first one though. That's all
you need to know. Man. Anyway, it was so cool
to have Blake Dan and you know, I remember Stripper Tuesday.
(32:40):
That was actually not my idea.
Speaker 4 (32:42):
I mean I was the first and only person to
do that, but uh, you would think it would have
been my idea, yes, because that was like trying to
use my powers for evil any chance I could get. Yeah,
but that was actually my program director's idea. She was like,
what do you think yes, I'll do it, you know,
but that just kind of gave me the idea of
having them in. But I think I came up with
the stripper trivia part of it. Unbelievably hard questions, like
(33:05):
ridiculously hard questions that no one would know. You get
it wrong. You got to take an item of clothing off. Yeah,
and I'm throwing like it was super easy one once
in a while, and sometimes they'd still get those wrong,
which was hilarious and uh yeah, just you know, get
them naked in the studio.
Speaker 2 (33:18):
Fun fact, back in the day, when I was younger
and when that was going on, I used to watch
these Ezio webcam that used to be on remember that
thing and now on Stripper Tuesday they would put a
sign in front of it so you couldn't watch it,
but I try.
Speaker 3 (33:30):
I would try to sign in front of it. I
would try anyway, Zeezio had a webcam. That's pretty fucking yeah,
I forgot so it'd be one of four.
Speaker 1 (33:36):
I remember, such a radio nerd and loved it and
just wanted to be and see into that world.
Speaker 3 (33:40):
You know.
Speaker 1 (33:41):
Ninety nine percent of the times it was just boring
as hell. Yeah, but you couldn't see on Stripper Tuesday.
I had a lot of fun times. Yeah, I was
there ninety six to two thousand and six a decade,
the first two years and nights and then eight years
in afternoon drive. So I'm proud of it.
Speaker 4 (33:56):
I'm proud to be, you know, part of the legacy
of that radio station, because I mean, what is it now,
forty years as a rock Station's that's great, cool, And
I'm proud of you, Joel.
Speaker 1 (34:07):
You are in that lineage. Now we're in the same list.
But let me tell you. The first time I met
you talk about Starstruck. The first time I met Blake,
it was Becker's fault. I've had a different job.
Speaker 4 (34:17):
I'm not in radio anymore in the Lehigh Valley, and
I was just driving by and I'm oh, the middle
of the day. Part of my job is driving around
to different businesses. So I'll stop in and say hi,
you know, to Becker, and he's like, oh, I got
somebody that wants to meet you. I'm like, okay, cool.
We go in the studio, Joel's there and he's like,
oh my god, I'm so glad to meet you. He's like,
I grew up listening to you, but that made me
(34:41):
feel old. But then I said, oh, on zz oh
because that was the earlier station. Yeah, He's like no, no, no,
on this one more recent times, and I was like, wow,
how old are you?
