Speaker 1 (00:01):
It's the Pops from Christina's Cooky Jar, Christine Jo Christine has.
Speaker 2 (00:29):
So this Saturday, guys, is the Rock and Roll Hall
of Fame Induction ceremony. Yeah, Saturday, it's streaming live starting
at four pm, four pm on Disney Plus. Uh, and
then you can stream it afterwards as well. And so
we've already gone through like some rumors of who's going
to do what, we didn't really know. We were just
you know, speculating, and now we know a little bit
(00:51):
more about what's happening. So I'll start with one that
we did know. David Letterman. He is inducting Warren Zevon
and uh, they're gonna have the Killers perform in.
Speaker 3 (01:03):
His honor as well.
Speaker 4 (01:04):
Ell, yeah, did you suspect that Kat has a big
Killers officionado?
Speaker 5 (01:08):
I did not, and I was having a hard time
kind of connecting the dots to why that would have
been the case. I do know that David Letterman loves
the Killers, so maybe he asked them.
Speaker 1 (01:16):
To do that.
Speaker 4 (01:17):
Oh wow, he's a huge Warren Zevon fan. Zevon appeared
on his show before he died. Was one of his
last appearances I believe was on Letterman yeah. And for
most people out there, if they do know a Warren
Zevon song, they know where wolf in London.
Speaker 6 (01:32):
I couldn't name a second one.
Speaker 1 (01:33):
I know.
Speaker 2 (01:34):
I saw someone said they did a deeper dive on
him and they loved more of his catalogs.
Speaker 3 (01:39):
So yeah, he should do the same.
Speaker 6 (01:40):
You should. You should do the Zevon dive, all right.
Speaker 2 (01:43):
Next up we got Iggy Pop inducting the White Stripes.
Speaker 4 (01:47):
Hell yes, it makes all the sense in the world.
Absolutely ziggy. I think Kiggy Pop is actually from Detroit.
Speaker 3 (01:52):
Yes, well, yeah, says fellow Michigan natives.
Speaker 6 (01:55):
Okay, yeah, yeah.
Speaker 2 (01:57):
Now we still don't know if Jack White and Meg
will be there or even perform Darius.
Speaker 5 (02:02):
And that's wild because they have like on like today, tomorrow, Friday,
they have like Big Q and A's and and things
you know outside of the rockall Hall of Fame to
like you know, promote it and these like special media events,
and no one knows if they're gonna be there or not.
Speaker 4 (02:14):
Yeah, it's like Prince at the super Bowl. That's so
Jack White, though, I love it.
Speaker 2 (02:19):
We would be great if, like last second they do
show up and end up doing fing.
Speaker 6 (02:24):
I bet they play, I bet it'd being I think
it's gonna be incredible.
Speaker 3 (02:26):
I bet they play right now. They've got twenty one
pilots performing seven Nation Army. Here's a band with two
people because it can't be the Black Keys.
Speaker 6 (02:35):
Because they hate each other so hate each other.
Speaker 2 (02:38):
Soundgarden, we have Jim Carrey inducting Soundgarden smoking super Random.
Speaker 6 (02:46):
I don't know the connection.
Speaker 3 (02:47):
I don't either, spoon Man, but I thought that was
pretty cool.
Speaker 2 (02:52):
I love Jim Carrey and I love Soundgardens, So what
if he does it is fire Marshall Bill beautiful, I hope,
and then perform in their honor. You got Brandy Carlisle
singing Black Hole Sun, which she's done before.
Speaker 3 (03:04):
You also have Taylor Momson from The Pretty Reckless.
Speaker 2 (03:07):
We said this, Mike McCready from Pearl Jam, Jerry Cantrell,
and Nancy Wilson of Heart. They're all going to be
in a big group performance Soundgarden song.
Speaker 6 (03:16):
Sanday Cantrell Big Car Dealer. Yeah.
Speaker 5 (03:18):
So in nineteen ninety six, Jim Carrey hosted Saturday Night
Live with Soundgarden.
Speaker 6 (03:23):
Also, did you did you mention Taylor Momson?
Speaker 3 (03:25):
Yes?
Speaker 5 (03:26):
Okay, because he was the Grinch and she was the girl.
Oh interesting, here's kind of a wild.
Speaker 2 (03:32):
She also she just did a cover of that song
that she sang when she was five years old, but
she like rockified it.
Speaker 3 (03:38):
It's great.
Speaker 4 (03:39):
You guys know who Nancy Wilson is married to. Don't
know Nancy Wilson from Heart. She's the guitar player from Heart.
She had one of the greatest movie cameos in movie
history when she was in Fast Times at Ridgemont High
pulled up next to Brad She was the smoking hot
chick in the car and he was wearing his fast
food hat. She eventually married the guy that wrote Fast
(04:01):
Times at Ridgemont High, Cameron Crowe, who made a Jillian movies,
including a movie on the Seattle rock scene called Singles,
which Soundgarden came out of.
Speaker 2 (04:11):
There's the tie in Elton John's going to do a
tribute for Brian Wilson.
Speaker 6 (04:16):
Oh Wauch Boys, Yes, he died, And then we.
Speaker 2 (04:18):
Have Brian Adams inducting Joe Cocker and Teddy Swims singing
for Joe Cucker. Whi's another one I think that we
call Oh, this is the greatest.
Speaker 6 (04:27):
Moment in the history of the show.
Speaker 7 (04:29):
For me because Kat was in denial about Joe Cocker
being a wildcatter, but he said Teddy Swims was a wildcatter,
so they got Teddy Swims to see Joe Cocker.
Speaker 3 (04:40):
What a datus is?
Speaker 6 (04:42):
It is a loss for me.
Speaker 3 (04:44):
Sorry, Kat, that's all right, could have skipped over that.
Speaker 6 (04:47):
Nope, I just don't hear it.
Speaker 2 (04:49):
We've got Questlove inducting Outcasts, but it says that they're
not going to perform because Andre three thousand is too nervous.
Speaker 1 (04:57):
To do so.
Speaker 6 (04:58):
I love it. Man, he'll get up there and play
his flute, but he can't wrap anymore.
Speaker 5 (05:02):
Prince also right, he just did the longest tour for
his flute albums.
Speaker 6 (05:08):
I love it.
Speaker 3 (05:09):
I thought I never knew that he had stage fright
like that. Like, that's weird to me.
Speaker 6 (05:13):
I'd never heard that either. Why Meg's not probably not
doing it for the White Stripes?
Speaker 1 (05:18):
What if?
Speaker 6 (05:18):
What if Andre three thousand and Meg did something together?
Speaker 3 (05:23):
Doja?
Speaker 2 (05:23):
Kat and Tyler the Creator are going to perform for
Outcast as well. Cindy Lauper inducted by Chapel Roone and
Cindy Lopper's gonna actually performing her.
Speaker 6 (05:33):
Ass off and I wanted.
Speaker 3 (05:35):
This note is kind of not funny, but kind of funny.
Speaker 2 (05:37):
So it is Mick Fleetwood is inducting bad Company, but
Brian Adams is going to fill in for the performance
because Paul Rogers was told that he cannot fly because
he's had thirteen strokes since twenty sixteen. Oh my god god,
So Paul Rodgers will not be there. He was supposed
to do a Q and a thing as well, but
they were like, nope, cancel it.
Speaker 3 (05:57):
He's not flying.
Speaker 6 (05:58):
He has like a stroke a year, thirteen strokes. Dude.
I love his voice, by the way, he's got a
great voice.
