Oh so you guys gonna eat some burgers? Probably not?
Speaker 3 (01:10):
Yeah, what's weird is I've had so many burgers within
the past like week. And I'm not a big burger person.
You guys know me. I'm a pizza person. But I
went to Snuffers maybe a week or so ago. Oh
hell yeah, I love snuff There's a great burger joint
just down the street and Bishop Arts that I went.

hold that thought. Have you been to his number one? No?
Speaker 3 (01:59):
I haven't.
Speaker 1 (02:00):
I tried to go to his number one. I told
my dad and my stepmom was like, all right, we'll
meet y'all over there, and we actually, uh like, it's
rare that my seventeen year old son will go anywhere
with us in a car, you know. And so it
was Sunday afternoon and I'd looked this place up and
it said on You know, do you guys ever rely
(02:22):
on the map app in your phone every day? Okay,
all the time. If you click on it, it'll give
you the hours to a business. I went to this
place because we had talked about it so much, and
it gave me the wrong hours. It said it was
open at eleven. It was not open at eleven on
a Sunday. It didn't open until three o'clock. Oh no,
it doesn't open until three o'clock any day. So actually
(02:43):
we'd gotten there at one o'clock, so we're like, all right,
So we went next door and had Mexican food. But
we made plans to go back there when it opened
at three o'clock on Father's Day, which is coming up
here in a couple of weeks. And that place, Christina
is a rough name of it. Burger Burger Schmerger.
Speaker 3 (03:01):
So I have been here.
Speaker 1 (03:03):
Wait, you went to Burger Schmerger, the one over off.
I have had it before, but you may not, but.
Speaker 3 (03:08):
Not actually the new location. Yeah, yes, I've not been
to the new location, but I have had the burger
and it was amazing. By the way, Bishop Art's hunkeys,
That's what I was thinking. Oh sorry that I was
too preoccupied trying to remember what that was called. Okay,
is that the same Monkeys, and there may still be one.
But I went to Hunkies in the nineties.
Speaker 1 (03:27):
It was in the Gaborhood and that's why it was
called Honkies real yeah, and it was, I mean, delicious burgers.
I don't know if it's still open in the Gigborhood.
Maybe they moved to Bishop Arts or maybe they have
multiple locations.
Speaker 3 (03:38):
Now, it seems like it's been around a while. But
Burger Schmerger, Okay, that's the one. Honkys is a delicious
gay burger. Now, Burger Schmerger. Let's go back to that.
Speaker 1 (03:49):
Yeah, yeah, go to it. I had just heard so
much about it, and I was dying to go, dying
to go, and it's like, all right, and you know
it's over off of Buckner in East Dallas. I live
in Allen, so you know, thirty five minute jaunt for
me to get there. So, needless to say, we are
real disappointed. So that's why we made plans. All right,
we're gonna go back at a different time. Then I
talked to Kevin Turner. He went on Saturday night on Saturday. Yeah,
(04:14):
what time Saturday? Uh six ish? Okay, and what was
the wait? At six o'clock? They said an hour. But
I looked around and I was like, it's gonna be
way less than that, okay, And it was about a
twenty minute wait okay at six o'clock. I mean usually wait,
start happening at seven or whatever. At seven, you could
have walked right in and got a table. Is that right? Crazy? Okay?
(04:35):
Because I was hearing that at three o'clock when they opened,
there's just people milling around in the parking lot. Yeah,
wait first waiting to get in. So the guy, uh,
the general manager is a dude named Jeremy and just
do a little social media stuff. Realized he listens to
the show, because I think it'll be rare that you
would follow us on Instagram if you didn't listen to
(04:57):
the show. The guys kind of got that Adam dur
it's his hair from Counting Crows, Yes, yeah, okay, oh
wait no, he's got long hair, yeah, ok them. Is
it dreaded up? Yeah a little bit. Okay. I didn't
see that on the picture, but maybe badass I think
it that's him, Okay. Anyways, and he follows some good
local music. I liked, like, oh, this seems seems like
a pretty good dude. So I reached out to him
(05:19):
and was like, hey, man, we talked about you on
the show all the time. KT's one of your disciples.
I haven't been out there yet, but I'm going to
be coming out soon. Blah blah blah. If you were
to guess they're doing well, if you were to guess
how many pounds of meat they went through in one week,
(05:40):
just take a guess how many pounds of meat did
Berger Schmerger go through last week? Pounds of meat? Oh man? Okay,
So I mean you're bringing this up because it's an
outrageous number. Now I'm not. Don't yell at me. Ten
thousand pounds of meat. That's not, that's not.
Speaker 3 (05:59):
How would you know? I almost said, I almost said
the same. I have no idea how to I don't
work with burgers.
Speaker 1 (06:05):
How much? How much is a burger? Is a burger
a pound? Uh? Big burger is a quarter? So four
is a pound? Keep going, So you think there's a
chance that they did ten thousand pounds in a week.
I don't think that, now that I've taken the time
into the mask.
Speaker 3 (06:19):
That's why I let KT say it. Before it I
almost said twenty thousand, KT just throw out some insane numbers.
Speaker 1 (06:26):
Don't ask us about me about fifteen hundred pounds of meat. Hey,
it is it is wrong to ask someone about meat.
I agree. So four burgers is a pound, allegedly, assuming
if you're going with cheese, okay, four and these are
smash burgers.
Speaker 3 (06:42):
What five hundred pounds pounds?
Speaker 1 (06:44):
One hundreds, four hundred they probably the place isn't like huge,
and it's just over It's not like it's in some
heavy traffic areas over there in East Dallas. So probably
doing that's impossible to know, okay, but still a number.
When you gave me the number, I thought it was
so shocking. I was like, I got to bring that
to the air. And then I brought it to the
(07:06):
air and you're guys like, I don't know ten thousand
pounds of meat. I was like, no, don't work in
that industry. You just you just totally minimized my number
that I thought was a huge number. When he told
me nine hundred pounds of meat, whoa, okay, hundred, I
thought that was shocking.
Speaker 3 (07:21):
It is, But now that we worked it out, now
we really realize how shocking.
Speaker 1 (07:25):
That number is.
Speaker 3 (07:26):
It sounds about right, Yeah, nine hundred.
Speaker 1 (07:31):
Like I'll do that with my wife all the time, like, hey,
you're never gonna believe this, guess so and so, and
you go, oh, five hundred thousand, like that's twenty five
times over the number, Like you're not making it fine, Yeah,
now that you get now you're breaking news is so unastounding. Yeah, wow,
actually I thought I was going to break the internet
have an interesting story anymore? Yeah, yeah, the story sucks
(07:53):
nine hundred pounds though in a week. Oh yeah, So
I went to the new place with the new you know,
they've they've got more burgers to juice from. Oh okay,
then that's a huge appetizer menu and all that stuff.
Whereas at high Fives the bar high fives there pop up,
there's two burgers. They're a food truck, right, it's no, no,
it's behind the bar high fives. Oh gotcha. It's the
(08:16):
Maverick and the og okay, which is you know, they're
what they were, but this is like branched out and
there's a lot of good options, right, so yeah, you
should try it. You know, I'm sitting there going, God,
maybe I want to go sooner than Father's Day because
that's still like two and a half weeks away. Their
bar was huge too, by the way. Yeah pretty nice, Yeah,
pretty nice. Nice. So anyways, if you make it on
over to Burger Schmerger, you know, get you one of
(08:39):
those nine hundred pounds of beef and tell those nice
people out there man the Ben and Skin Show, we're
talking about nine hundred pounds of beef on their show.
All right, we have lots to get to today. You
haven't heard Ben's voicehit. You're not going to hear it
this week unless it's in the form of the Today
game or a drop because he is on vacation. But
we will hold it down for him in his stead
and hopefully have lots of fun. God bless Jesus, Yes,
(09:03):
God bless Jesus. All right, coming up next, I'm gonna
play you guys some audio from something that I missed
out on the first time, but I'm excited about. We'll
do that next right here on the Eagles Jessy News Hot,
God come stay on the time in the shove. I'm
(09:27):
only doing this because I don't think you guys are
gonna get to it the same way I'm probably not
gonna get to the Pewee Herman documentary that we discussed yesterday. Well,
it's what it is. It's what it is. I had
some listeners reach out and say they cried, and the
pee wee dot see, I'm not trying to cry, saying
I'm gonna tell you a little bit about the show
that ended on Sunday night on HBO called The Rehearsal,
Season two of it. I've watched about thirty minutes of it.
(09:49):
Stars Nathan Fielder, the comedian. Here's the story. You don't
even have to watch season one of the Rehearsal to
know what's going on here. Okay, the premise of the
show completely is he wants to simulate these life situations
so can get the life situation right. So all season
long he's dedicated himself to the subject of airline safety,
and he's reasoning that more plane crashes could have been
(10:09):
avoided if pilots and co pilots had healthier interpersonal interversal relationships.
If in the cockpit we can have an actual discussion,
how you doing, man, you good, then maybe we wouldn't
be having so many tragic accidents. So he is going
to take his idea all the way up to Washington. Now, wait, hold, on.
I think you need to set the parameters of how
(10:31):
this show is presented because it's hyper real, and that's
one of the things that makes it interesting. It's absolutely
really happening. With an HBO budget, he creates simulations of
life events, he hires actors. So he's going to take
this idea to Washington, right, He's going to have a
simulated congressional hearing before actually trying to have a hearing
(10:53):
at Congress. So because he's having trouble getting people to
go with him on this theory too, or this idea.
All right, So this is episode five of a six
episode season, so it's the episode before the finale. And
what he's going to do, he's going to hire a
bunch of actors who are going to play the actual
members of Congress. Hire a bunch of actors and put
(11:14):
them in the audience of the actual hearing. Okay, and
they don't know what's going on, and we're going to
try to simulate this as if it would happen. So
are these people improvisational actors that he's surrounding himself with, No,
we know they're coming in and it shows him going
through the auditions as well. Okay, For instance, there's one
where they're getting on a plane and his line is,
(11:35):
I would like to diet PEPSI please, Like he's that's
these people do. These are not real actors, okay, okay.
And one thing that he did is he did research
on comedians who have gone to Congress before for stuff
they cared about seth rogen for Alzheimer's research, John Stewart
and Stephen Colbert for nine to eleven firefighters, right, and
(11:56):
he's like, one thing he had noticed is that they
issue a joke before Congress and then once they get
that out of the way, everyone will pay attention to
the actual cause because they're expecting me, as a comedian
to do this. Now, Nathan Fielder started on Nathan for You.
If you don't know him, he's very dry, He's I
(12:17):
would be I would be surprised if more than five
people listening know who this guy is. The writings are
not good for the show. Like when you said Nathan
for You, I don't think there's a single person listening
right now. There's people who watched it on Comedy Central
ten years ago. They know, Okay, but not many. All right,
you're right, you're right. So, but he is a comedian,
(12:37):
all right, so he's what does his research? So he's like, okay,
so in this simulation with these actors around, I'm going
to issue a joke and then we're gonna get to
the serious nature of what I'm trying to get across here. Okay,
I'm gonna play you clip one of him sitting down
(12:58):
doing the joke again, Actors in Congress, actors behind him,
in the audience of the courtroom. Yep.
Speaker 4 (13:06):
It's an honor to be here in front of the
Aviation Subcommittee. The last time I had to answer to
a transportation authority was when I got caught mastering.
Speaker 1 (13:14):
On that bus.
Speaker 4 (13:15):
But in my defense, the driver did keep telling me
to get off, So all right, well that was just
a little joke. So you know, that's a light in
the mood there, and now we're gonna in a seriousness.
I do want to speak about an issue that's become
(13:37):
deeply important to me, which is aviation safety. But I
instantly realized something was wrong with this rehearsal when no
one in the room laughed. I was just wondering, did
you did you find that joke funny?
Speaker 3 (13:50):
The bus joke?
Speaker 1 (13:51):
I love that bush?
Speaker 4 (13:52):
Oh yeah, Okay, cool, because I noticed you didn't laugh.
Speaker 3 (13:56):
I mightn't know.
Speaker 1 (13:59):
I didn't know, didn't know. What if I'm supposed to laugh?
Speaker 4 (14:02):
Oh, I mean you're not supposed to laugh. I mean
you're not supposed to do anything. You're just supposed to
act like a human.
Speaker 1 (14:08):
You know. If you find something funny, then go for it,
then laugh.
Speaker 4 (14:12):
Yeah, if you find it funny, yeah, absolutely, yeah.
Speaker 1 (14:15):
All right, So then he tells him like, hey, you
guys can laugh.
Speaker 3 (14:18):
All right, I act like a human.
Speaker 1 (14:20):
So we're gonna try it again. We've gotta try the
simulation again. Okay, get it right?
Speaker 4 (14:24):
Okay, hey everyone, just a little reminder in cases any confusion,
we're all playing like human beings, right, So if you,
as a human, find something funny, it's okay to laugh.
Speaker 1 (14:36):
Just yeah, got it? Okay. Good.
Speaker 4 (14:39):
The last time I had to answer to a transportation
authority is when I got caught massively on that bus.
But in my defense, the driver did keep telling me
to get off.
Speaker 3 (15:10):
I mean, good, good. I just don't want anyone to
force a laugh.
Speaker 1 (15:13):
So if you're I'm telling you though, that's the thing
about this show is I can't tell it's this is
this is where it's crazy if you can't tell what
people knowing what they don't. They don't, they don't know.
I'm telling you they don't because here's what happens. After
the fifth episode, the sixth episode, the finale opens and
it goes two years back. Two years ago, he got
(15:37):
his pilot's license. He took a crew of people up
on a Boeing jet in a flight, and he has
another a pilot with him, and it's real. There's also
a whole like singing competition that they did in the
Houston Airport too. This lady violated her NDA. There's NDAs
(15:58):
all across the border here. She valeated her NDA. She
had spent some of the money she thought she won
on a singing contest. Oh man, Now he kind of
feels like a jerk about it, but he also was
doing the show and she should not have spent her
money that she hadn't won yet she signed the NDA.
It's I'm tony. It's more jaw dropping than the Game
(16:18):
of Thrones, red Wedding, than anything I ever saw on
breaking Back at the Wire. I want to watch it.
The twist, well, it's it's unbelievable. Okay, all right, that
is the rehearsal on HBO with Nathan Field. All right,
submit and Skin Show ninety seven point one The Eagle
Coming up next, we have an audio bubble bath. KT's
gonna wow us with sounds. Can we guess him? We
have some really fun Jack Black audio for you coming
(16:39):
up here. I'll make you think in about fifteen minutes
or so. But right now it's time for this streaking.
All right, So I'm gonna play some audio. I'm gonna
see if you guys can guess what's going on here.
This is a post it on TikTok a couple of
days ago. I will tell you that this is a
(17:01):
British lady and see if you can kind of figure
out what she's hearing, because she is returned home after
work or a night out and she's home alone. But
she's a little freaked out because she's hearing this noise.
(17:28):
There's fifteen seconds and he guesses where is it happening.
It's like in another room in her house and the
door shut. Yeah, it's kind of dark in the house too,
so she's like, Okay, was that sped up at all?
That's an Yeah. I did a bunch of edits to
make shorter because it's like a minute and a half. Yeah,
can I hear it again? Would you just pick it
(17:49):
up where it was? Okay? Or well?
Speaker 2 (17:51):
Go away? Hello?
Speaker 1 (18:02):
Hello? Okay? Any guesses we had a little more.
Speaker 3 (18:06):
But just someone's having a hard time in the bathroom.
Speaker 1 (18:09):
I mean it makes me they get some sort of
an exhaust thing.
Speaker 3 (18:14):
It Also, it reminds me of you guys put in
the fart prank thing.
Speaker 1 (18:18):
Oh yeah, like the fart machine.
Speaker 3 (18:19):
Yeah, like in the studio. So maybe someone put one
of those in her oh something.
Speaker 1 (18:25):
Yeah, that's good. I mean it does sound so much
like a fart that I think it's not a fart. O, guys, Hi,
it's a TV Hello? Is that a dog party?
Speaker 3 (18:48):
Okay?
Speaker 1 (18:53):
Kevin, guess it's still do guys are good? You guys
are all around it here. It's pretty good farting.
Speaker 2 (19:03):
Hello?
Speaker 1 (19:07):
Stop?
Speaker 3 (19:10):
Who does so? How is that even saying?
Speaker 1 (19:13):
What is a kid playing sound effects on a computer?
Speaker 3 (19:17):
No? Alexa was playing it way.
Speaker 1 (19:21):
Fucked in her Alexa machine, her little Alexa just playing
farts the whole time.
Speaker 3 (19:27):
That's incredible.
Speaker 1 (19:28):
Alexa played farts and it is not stop.
Speaker 3 (19:46):
Hello, Hello, Hello, Hello.
Speaker 1 (20:09):
Alexa? Stop?
Speaker 3 (20:13):
Who does how is that? Evenna sing that's amazing.
Speaker 1 (20:18):
That is amazing. So someone said, Alexa play farts for
the next three hours and left. Yeah, right right, that
has to be what happened.
Speaker 3 (20:25):
Unless she does live alone, then that's creepy.
Speaker 1 (20:28):
She does live alone, just thought someone was in her house.
Someone had to have gone and done that, though Alexa
doesn't just decide to do it.
Speaker 3 (20:36):
No, we grew up with ferbies. Ferbies would go off
just by themselves randomly, so I can relate.
Speaker 1 (20:41):
I never used my Alexa. I think it's too easy
for people to hack into now.
Speaker 3 (20:46):
Turned that microphone off.
Speaker 1 (20:48):
Yeah, yeah, that's probably true. Hello, we do. We do
a lot of that. We do a lot of what's
the weather today? Alexa is what? Well? Hey Siri? Because
the iPhones are old. Yeah whatever. All right, there's a
(21:08):
fun thing you can do to scare your parents, brought
to you by KT here on the Eagle. All right,
it's the Ben and Skin Show coming up next. Why
don't we do this? Jack Black always makes us think,
he makes us laugh, he makes us smile. He's got
some audio and you're really gonna like this. We'll play
it for you next right around nine one point one
to eat coming up later in the show. I'm very
(21:29):
interested in KT has the abcs of rock. It's trust me,
it's gonna be a lot of fun stick around for that.
It's an interactive game that you can play at home
with us as well. Now there's a lot of different
celebrities out there that deliver amazing audio. They always have
something fun and interesting to say, and we can listen
to it and then kind of spin it off into
(21:51):
a million different topics, and KT you have that right
now with one of the greatest actor musicians, Jack Black.
He is on the podcast with a polar And I
was telling Christina about this Sunday at BFD and then
I was like, she was like, WHOA, that's interesting, and
someone else jumped into the conversation too, and then I
was like, Okay, we'll bring this to the show later
(22:12):
in the week. So she's kind of asking him how
he spends his free time when you're not working and
when you want to just like peace out and chill out,
where do you go?
Speaker 5 (22:19):
One thing I realized I stopped listening to music. I
was only listening to podcasts and audio books. And I
was like, I get music back in my life's stat
and so I did this thing called chrono marathons, where
you pick a band that you love and you go
chronologically through their whole catalog. It's a great way to
get the nooks and crannies, and there's probably some bonus
(22:40):
tracks that you never listened to listen to all of it,
even the songs, because then you find these.
Speaker 1 (22:46):
It's just an interesting way to hear music. I had
never done it before, and I swear, I swear by it.
Speaker 3 (22:51):
Who have you done well?
Speaker 1 (22:53):
It's going to sound boring.
Speaker 5 (22:54):
Pink Floyd, I did the Rolling Stones, I did the Beatles,
I did led Zeppelin, all these great musicians and people
that you're like, hey, there's some songs that I've never
even heard that they wrote and.
Speaker 3 (23:04):
Go in complete order.
Speaker 1 (23:06):
I've heard all of them.
Speaker 5 (23:07):
Now, and I like to do a little star on
the ones that are extra specials. And the most fun
part is going, oh this album is when they hit
their stride and you go, they got this window here.
There's usually like a four or five year window where
their bed went down.
Speaker 1 (23:23):
Why why then?
Speaker 5 (23:24):
And it's also like, oh, yeah, I love this band
in this window nineteen seventy eight Steely Dan, you know.
Speaker 1 (23:32):
But anyway, oh, I love that. That's amazing. Fun I
can never think about him is awesome. I totally agree.
I was sitting there listening to that thinking about a
lot of different things at once. One is just the
way that he presents himself, I agree, you know, And
part of it is I love when someone's passion for
(23:53):
something comes through and how they're talking about it, Like
you can tell he genuinely cares about what he's talking about,
and you know, that's why he kind of goes off
in these weird little funny things, you know, because he's
kind of caught up in the thing. So he's on, right,
and he's on a podcast, yeah, yeah, and he's supposed
to be on. But I just think he's a dude
that's on and he really cares about things. And uh,
(24:15):
that concept what he called it a marathon chrono marathons.
For a nerd like me, that concept is super badass
because I very much care about what I would deem
spheres of influence and like when things happen in time
and what happens after it. It may not matter as
(24:36):
much now because of the way technology is, but you know,
really genres of music which we're on a rock station right,
we're on a specific kind of rock station, but even
genres of music happen because of a combination of technology
that talented people suddenly have their hands on, and then
(24:58):
the sphere of influence and how it influences other people.
Like there's a real famous line about the first Velvet
Underground album. Velvet Underground probably are given credit for having
created quote unquote alternative rock, whatever that term would mean
to somebody, But the line is, only one hundred people
bought the first Velvet Underground album, but every single one
(25:19):
of them went on the start a band. Right now,
That's what we're talking about with spheres of influence, Like
you create this thing and then think about UKT and
like your interest in writing comedy and stuff, like there
was something that happened in your timeline that sparked you,
and then you you're the guy that goes and does
all the research and reads about it and stuff that
you weren't even alive for when it happened, but it
(25:40):
matters because of that chrono marathon idea of what led
to something else. Well, it's like I showed that to
my wife and she goes, oh my god, you already
do that, Yes, I do like we like the Rolling
Stone thing that you did.
Speaker 4 (25:52):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (25:52):
Yeah, but like even like we had a concert come up.
I did it with the Black Keys a little bit.
It didn't go all the way through, but I started
at the beginning. Was kind of just kind of bugging
through their songs. The Evolution. When we went and saw
LCD sound System you know, a month ago, Yeah, I
went and listened to all five of the records. Yeah,
in order to do it in order. Yes. Cool, And
I kind of like to do that when I'm going
(26:13):
to see a band I haven't seen in a long time. Yeah,
But it's something that's fun to do. And sometimes the
seasons there's just like certain bands like in the Fall
that just kind of remind me of that and I'm like, Okay,
I'm listening to that record right now.
Speaker 3 (26:24):
So I used to do that when I was a kid,
like in your high school years, when you discover a band,
you're like, I like this song, what else do they have?
Speaker 1 (26:32):
Yeah?
Speaker 3 (26:33):
And I remember That's why I loved b LimeWire so much,
because I would get all kinds of things. But I
do feel bad. It's like Jack Black said, I'm like, man,
before we look, before I listened to that Black Keys
album on our way up to Chalkdaws, Like when was
the last time I actually listened to a full album
all the way through? I haven't done that in a
long time. And you forget how happy it makes you,
And like he said, you forget all of these smaller
(26:55):
songs that weren't hits by these huge bands, Like when
was the last time I listened to Zeppelin's Hot Do
it exists? I just never listened to it.
Speaker 1 (27:02):
There's just so much to consume. But then there's those
things that really matter to you that you go back.
I've got in my living room. I've got this old
refurbished turntable, and I got a badass rocking chair. And
so when I do want to do that like unwind,
I will put on records and I'll sit my Scotch
or whatever and just sit there and listen to records.
And it just evens me out. I mean, you guys
(27:24):
know me. I can't turn my brain off, but it
at least puts my brain in a place where it's
not rapid fire just banging off the wall. Right, It
can just even me out. But I do sit there
and think about is there a band that you guys
got into late. In other words, you know they already.
The one I can think of for me is Radiohead,
(27:45):
because I didn't get into Radiohead until Okay Computer, and
I was actually I think Okay Computer probably been out
for about a year or so when I discovered it,
or nine months, and then I was like, I can't
believe how much I like this. I've always known this band, uh,
but I never paid attention to him. So then, you know,
I kind of got to pick up halfway through their thing.
(28:06):
But I did go back and I listened to their
first record. I was like, oh, yeah, it's terrible. They
have literally, depending on how you feel about Creep, two
songs on that album that are worth it. Tame Pabla
Honey's Tough, Pablo Honey Tough. The Bens is great. You
going fun of me for this a lot. My favorite band, though,
I got into ten years after they had begun, and
(28:26):
their window was very much ninety four to ninety nine,
that window he was talking about, Uh huh. I got
into them in two thousand and four. Who are they
Matthew's band? Oh oh oh right, I have to say,
but that's your age. You were fourteen or fifteen. Yeah, yeah, yeah,
I mean would have missed it, but like they were,
their prime was over. Yeah, you know that's when I
discovered it. Yeah, but that's because how old were you
(28:50):
and crash happened because that was when they became like
a thing that people like me would know. Eight. Yeah,
it's rare that you're going to be super into a band,
tod eight. It's tough. It's tough, especially when the only
stations in town just played country music too, right, right, yeah,
all right man, yeah, Jack Black, he's awesome. All right,
it's been and skin Show ninety seven point one The
(29:11):
Eagle coming up next playoff time. We'll do a little
sports with you. Let's talk about who the next wave
of famous people are going to be. You're gonna like this.
It has to do with technology. These are the people
that your kids are going to be telling you about.
We'll do all that next, but right now, it's time
for this.
Speaker 3 (29:28):
Now.
Speaker 4 (29:28):
It's cool around the sports kgdu twints as all.
Speaker 2 (29:34):
The sports.
Speaker 1 (29:37):
I do and the Star's loss last night tough. I
I had a thing, uh and I didn't get to
see it, but I was checking my phone and I
felt like every time I looked at my phone. It
was still two to one.
Speaker 3 (29:50):
Yeah, it wasn't fun, skin.
Speaker 1 (29:51):
And then I saw the final score and I guess
there's a couple empty netters or something.
Speaker 3 (29:55):
Yeah, they did basically back to back empty netters on us.
Speaker 1 (29:58):
But yeah, did y'all stick in there? And like, watch
this thing I did? I did? I thought this Dallas
Morning News article is pretty good about it. The headline
stars not tough enough nor smart enough. Oh to rally
from three to one deficit. That's Tim Callshaw. Wow, he
called him a bunch of dumb peas. But Edmonton's scored
(30:20):
on power play penalties. You can't, you can't, You just can't.
Speaker 3 (30:24):
And we had so many chances to score and it
just wouldn't happen.
Speaker 1 (30:28):
That's what sucked about this whole thing is we outplayed
them in the first period and they walked away losing
one to nothing. After the first period. Hard to tie
it up and it's fine, and then Edmonton just kind
of got another penalty and there we go. It is
so rare in football or basketball. It can happen in basketball,
(30:50):
maybe a little bit in baseball, but it is more
common in hockey and maybe soccer that you can get
out played the entire game and win. And I'm not
saying that's what happened here. But hockey is so weird
because it is so hard to score and you can
kick someone's ass for fifty eight minutes and they get
(31:14):
two fluky goals on you and you lose. Yeah, it's
such a weird game. Man, it sucks. But tomorrow night
we have to protect this house. Oh I like that,
such a good sports cluche we get them tomorrow night.
You know what turn up? You know what they need, right, Pantia,
I mean everybody needs Pantara, Tom Cruise. Think about right
(31:35):
before they skate out there, what if he turns and
discriminately points them between two of the players, Like he's
pointing in between Sagan and Ben, and he says, think
about what that would do. Think about how that could
change their fortune. Let's go get them. But I have
a great summer. Kind of reeks of like, well, no,
(31:58):
he's saying, you'll have a great sum or if you
go get them, summer is always better when you end winning.
So I think I do you think the Starts have
a good coach? This is his eighth conference final with
four different teams. I believe is eighth conference final. Okay,
he is zero Stanley Cups. Wow? Has he even made
it then? Yeah, because he made it with the Stars
(32:21):
and oh he was coaching them. Oh, Tony right? Is
it the old coach man? This is again where the
pandemic ruins everything? No, I just forget everything. I think
it was I think it was Debor was it Wendy Rouff?
I had I had. I had lunch with a friend
(32:42):
that I hadn't seen since before the pandemic, and we
were having that conversation. Did we have we seen each
other since the pandemic?
Speaker 3 (32:48):
It's been five years?
Speaker 1 (32:49):
Five years, Joe, hard to know? Hard to know. There's
a Star's action the Pacers. It's on. They're showing highlights
behind your head right now. Rick Carlisle is now won
with the Pacers three to one and likely going back
to the finals. I was thinking last night he didn't
have a Dirk story like the twenty eleven story. But
this is pretty pretty special for him to go back
(33:11):
to the Pacers where he'd already been and to possibly
take them to the finals. I don't know, incredible. I
don't know why. I mean, I'm just that's my connection
to the Pacers, yeah, Carlisle. And they also they have
two assistant coaches on their staff that I was that
am friends with, like I will text them occasionally, and
(33:31):
one of them I was texting with a month ago,
because you know, he was just dealing with stuff. And
you know that's if you are around somewhere long enough,
all the people come through and you meet them and stuff.
I've got connections to the Knicks and I've got connections
to the Pacers, and so I would be happy if
(33:52):
either advanced. And then also, I'm this sounds weird to
say this. It's not like he were super tight, but
if I texting me, hits me back. I'm friends with
the GM of the Oklahoma City Thunder, oh ass, and
so even though like around here we kind of hate
the Thunder low key, I would be ecstatic if he
finally got his ring. I never got the hatred for
(34:13):
the Thunder. I think it's just bases blowing up, you know.
I never uh, you know, obviously, we've also kind of
been their daddy for yeah, for a while, Like that's true.
So I don't know if i've really I've never felt that,
but I do want Minnesota to put up a fight
tonight and make it a series, and I'd like to
see that, okay, just to go, oh yeah, I give
(34:35):
me if my team's not in it. I want every
series to go south because think we might be going
six days off and then we have the Midwest NBA
Finals to the Pacers and Thunder. In that world, everybody
knows each other. But I did walk into the hotel
bar of the Scurve. And you guys have heard of
the Scurve, and that's the haunted hotel in downtown Oklahoma
(34:56):
City and we used to stay there when we played
at Oklahoma City. I've stayed there a few times. I
did walk into the hotel bar on a Saturday night
and the GM of the Thunder was sitting there. I
don't even know if it was alcohol, you might have
been drinking water, I don't know, but was sitting there
with Rick Carlisle, and I was just like, this is
so interesting. Yea, that works because they're enemies, but they're
(35:17):
also friends, right, everyone knows everybody. Everyone knows everybody. It's
a very small fraternity. So if it ends up being
the Pacers and the Thunder, who do you want to win? Pacers? Yeah,
I love the thunder story, but I still see them
as like and this is the whole thing about Luca
getting trade to the Lakers almost. I don't want these
(35:39):
teams who are in our conference to do well. Well.
Here's the other thing. This could be the beginning of
the most insane run because if you look at the
age of those guys, they are poised to go win
three or four of these things. It's terrifying. And look it. Injuries,
all these things happen, but they are set up. And
after having drafted Kevin Durant, Russell Westbrook and James Harden,
(36:03):
and then having to trade all three of them, think
about what he's rebuilt. That's why. That's why they're the
best front office in sports. All Right, it is the
Ben and Skin Show. Katie explain what's happening next and
our I Love Technology segment. I can tell you these
seven types of people that will be famous next, and
that's happening next. Ninety seven won the Eagle. But right
(36:24):
now it's time for this. Why do you love me?
Why do you HOI forever? So good Man child, he
loves technology. They met in the chat room. I forgot
that worldwide lives great.
Speaker 3 (36:50):
You make me sell those.
Speaker 2 (36:53):
Yeah, I love.
Speaker 1 (36:54):
Technical you see the best actor. Yeah, the last fifty years,
that's what we've been in one movie. Okay, So I'll
me the first to ten that I am a little
bored with AI content and just the discussion of AI.
It's out there, we all know it, we're using it. Yeah,
but I don't even want to be around anymore, I know, right,
But this was interesting to me. I've actually been sitting
(37:14):
on this for a while. I found it this morning.
I was like, oh, yeah, why have I been sitting
on this since April tenth. So there's this gal that
was on Threads and she was basically like, in the
last fifty years someone was on Threads. Yeah, Threads is
still killing it, dude, is that right? Keeps trying to
get me to go every day and I never do
something I don't Yeah, but when I click on it,
(37:35):
I'm always interested. Okay. So here's what we see. Who
was famous in the seventies and eighties. Musicians and actors,
rock stars, bitch nineties became kind of models and like it,
men and women you know, still actors still that, but
kind of fade away. Two thousands TV Personalities, Reality TV
and then twenty ten's became influencers normies. So this bitch
(37:58):
went to chat GPT yeah and said, what is the
next phase of fame based on what we've seen over
the last fifty years artificial fame number one expert led fame. So, like,
you know, there's growing distrust in media, oh, legacy media, yes,
(38:18):
and there's growth and there's distrust in influencer culture. Yeah,
but there is a shift towards valuing people who have
depth and credibility yeah, and academic knowledge. So if you're
running a YouTube channel or you're hosting a radio show
where you're you know, being an expert on one topic, huh,
and the branches around that topic, that's what will be
(38:39):
famous next. That's interesting to me. That's interesting to me,
especially since I read a story this morning that a
cabinet member is trying to ban scientists from writing in
medical journals anymore. But no, I mean this is really interesting.
You know, if you really want to spend more than
five seconds thinking about it, the person saying don't trust
legacy media, why would they be saying that, Yeah, spend
(39:03):
some time thinking about it. Yeah, one, I try not too. Yeah,
cultural preservationist and translators. Oh, I lolization continues. Absolutely, Translators
are so valuable. Right now, you know who the number
one DFW cultural preserve preservationist is, Robert Wolanski. Robert Wolanski,
Like you weren't even halfway through that sentence, and the
(39:25):
first thing I thought was, well, that's what Robert Wolanski.
That's how he functions in this city, and I respect
the hell out of it. Fame here is less about spectacle,
more about stewardship and storytelling. Yes, thank Sarah Hepplis kind
of going down that, Yeah, that same avenue. I agree that,
Alice Morning News, that's what our buddy, rest in peace.
I got real sad the other day because I thought
I had some music and I was sitting there and
(39:46):
I was like, I would love to share this with
Zach Crane right now. Oh my god, what a great guy,
rest in Peace. I told you I had seven three
AI generated or AI enhanced.
Speaker 3 (39:56):
Personality personalities are going to be famous AI?
Speaker 1 (40:00):
Yeah, I fear this. I think they're already. There aren't
people subscribing to like fab hoorn and fake only fans
and stuff. I don't like this, Like, isn't been looking
at a picture right now of an AI generated guild.
Speaker 3 (40:12):
Hold on, can we make money from that?
Speaker 2 (40:14):
Though?
Speaker 3 (40:14):
If I were to do an AI generated person.
Speaker 1 (40:18):
If you're the one that generated it or hit the
you're the one that hit the sin button. I guess
I don't even know what the world are rules.
Speaker 2 (40:24):
Rules.
Speaker 3 (40:25):
Now I'm back on board.
Speaker 1 (40:26):
Okay, there are no rules, but you will get canceled
if you get handsy. Yeah. Yeah, shows why I still
have a job. Have it been handsy and not in
a while? Purpose driven figures people seeking meaning public figures
tied to causes, activism, mental health, yeah, social justice, yeah,
(40:48):
all that stuff. Those people have created a following. They
we're seeing this happening, and the people that are trying
to stop those things have created a following as well.
Now here's us. Yeah. Micro fame and can munity celebrities. Yes,
that's me. I've got micro fame. Micropeen fame is what
(41:08):
I have. That guy, it's famous versus micropen. I have
a tiny penis. Oh, Kevin, you can't steal my thunder.
I went in there over the weekend and urged that
from Christina's got it on seven different hard drives just
(41:28):
in case that's the case. Does the Internet's fragmenting fame
into subcultures with platforms with TikTok, Discord, Patreon, blah blah
blah blah blah. This is fame without universality, intensely loyal,
highly engaged like audiences. You know, it's true. Our listeners
are efing awesome, man, Yeah, locked in and you know
what it really brings up, though, Do you care more
about money or fame because they are not the same
(41:50):
and these this is fame. There's I think a lot
of these fragmentation is going to stop the mega rich,
uh or people become mega rich, not the big corporations
are always gonna have their money and those people that started.
But I'm saying, like an actor, you know, being so
financially set because of all these things he's created, I
(42:11):
think fragmentation makes that harder. I think it's harder now
to know who the new actor is. Yeah, it's because
everything is fragmented, absolutely, platforms. There's not enough people know
that John Mulaney's fighting three kids. Deny, Oh it's tonight.
Oh my god, we'll talk about that tomorrow. We used
to know about it, but we don't anymore. I don't
have the other reasons. Because it's time to go, Man,
(42:32):
we should probably go. Do you don't want to say one?
I thought I want to do this today game. I
want to hear about what the Frinkles got cooking? All right?
Coming up next to today games, your friends KT, Christina
and old curmudgeon skin Way gotcha on lock. Thanks for
hanging out with us today. I am excited for this
music segment we're gonna get into. It's a it's a
(42:53):
two parter. We're gonna get into it at five point
thirty five. It's a great KT fun tweets creation, and
it involve the alphabet, your favorite bands, and your musical brain.
So don't go anywhere. We got that on tap now
right now. If you're paying attention to the sports world,
you're seeing the Oklahoma City Thunder are waiting for the
(43:15):
Indiana Pacers, who they will likely play in the Western
Conference Finals. But man, the Dallas Mavericks got so lucky
on getting the number one pick when they had a
one point eight percent chance of getting it that I'm
watching these playoffs KT, and I'm serious. If they have
good health next year, I don't see any reason why
(43:38):
the Mavericks can't be back in a title hunt next year.
They're going to add because what you need to remember
is remember the Houston Rockets game this year where Anthony
Davis got hurt, But just remember how good they looked,
and there's a chance that that exact team can be
(43:59):
ready to rock in May or you know, late April
of next year. Also adding Cooper Flag, the number one
pick who could start for most teams playoff time. See,
that's what you're going to say, we'll be back in
playoff time now. The other component of this is that
the Mavericks are likely going to add another player, a
(44:22):
quote unquote veteran point guard. They're going to make some
other moves. We don't know what it is yet, but
you've been following this and seeing it out there in
the world, and there's some names worth talking about. Well, yeah,
Mark Stein's the first one to kind of throw out
a few names. Again, he's just you know, yeah, he's
just throwing some things out there. And let's just say,
if you don't know Mark Steins Hall of Fame, NBA writer, reporter,
(44:45):
and he is not an opinion maker, No, he is
a reporter. So if he's saying something that means there's
credible people that are suggesting this to him. That's why
it's different than Steven A. Smith going, I think he's
a joker. You know, it's not that. It's hey man,
I'm talking to people and this is what I'm here.
And he said, Chris Paul is a name to monitor
(45:07):
for the Mavericks. That was the very first name I
threw out when they got the number one month ago. Yeah,
it was the very first name I thought of and did.
This does work in tandem with the report that yeah,
it's probably not going to return to the Spurs. He's forty. Yeah.
And then you go to look at the Vegas odds
and they're like, oh, yeah, there's the Dallas Mavericks the
number one team for Chris Paul. You know, the Clippers
(45:29):
are on there. There's a couple other teams. I because
once Wimby Victor wimbin Yama, their old Universe player, once
he was out for the year and they had made
the darn Fox trade and then Daron Fox got hurt.
I kind of stopped paying attention to them. Yeah, and
then the Mavericks played them late in the year, and
these back to back games. I went and did one
(45:50):
of the games, and when we played them, Chris Paul
was on a stretch where he was hitting like eighty
percent of his threes over the previous five games. So
what you're talking about, Alright, he's forty. You're not talking
about leaning heavily on someone. You're talking about getting a
guy that really knows how to play basketball and seeing
if you can get twenty minutes a night out of
(46:11):
him to be smart at most, at most, just be
smart and get you to the point where Kyrie comes
back and then he's just a part of the rotation. Well,
it certainly feels like they will play lineups where maybe
Naji Marshall has to be your point guard minutes a
game or six minutes a game. Did you see the
d magazine article our buddy Jake Ken from the Dumb
Zone rote No, he finally came around and decided that
(46:34):
he would write about basketball. Okay, not just back yeah,
and not just you know, feeling angst over the Maverick situation.
Hold on, Nico's still here? Does he know that? Well,
you know what he was writing about, which is something
we've talked about. Hey, man, Cooper, flag is your two guard,
and it's like it's really I didn't have anybody tell
me this, but I feel like I really know Jason
(46:57):
Kidd's tendencies, and I know what Cooper Flag is and
we weren't, you know, twenty four hours removed from the lottery,
and I was like, dude, if you look at this team,
barring some seismic trade, which I'm I'm one thousand percent
entrenched in the camp of I do not want to
trade PJ. Washington Junior. I want him to be a Maverick.
(47:17):
I think he fits perfectly. I think if you want
to add something, I get it. He's not the guy
I'm trying to trade. I think him and Cooper Flagg
can play side by side one another in three different,
completely different lineups and work. So I want to keep him.
And the way that Nico and j Kidd want to
play defense, they very much matter, right, Like you can
(47:39):
play Lively and Anthony Davis and Cooper Flag and PJ.
Washington Junior together, and you just mentioned nag Nage can
be out there with them against certain lineups. If you
had Chris Paul that's your starting point guard. Everyone's going, wait,
what about Klay Thompson. Yeah, I think this might be
time for Klay to start coming off the bench, yeah,
(47:59):
or at the age he's at and still be really good,
like he will matter and there will be times where
he's closing games. But you know, at some point, if
you want to win a title, you kind of have
to accept where you are based on the construction of
the team. And Clay may not be there yet. And
maybe Clay is out there with the other four guys.
(48:19):
We'll see how that goes. But when I look at lineups, man,
I'd love to bring Klay Thompson off my bench and
I have him just punish second units, give you fifteen
a game coming off the bench and be six Man
of the Year. Be incredible. That'd be great and he
part of that might be if he wants to do
that or not, or do they think they could get
something for him right? You know? And people I think
(48:41):
people have just already forgotten that Brandon Williams is on
the team. Yeah, and they like Brandon Williams. And Brandon
Williams has shown that he can give you twenty minutes
a night too. I think so too. I think coming
off the bench, think about him and Clay coming off
the bench together, that would they would give back up
units a lot of problems. And if you don't make
another trade, which I think they will, but if you
don't make another trade, those two guys coming off the
(49:02):
bench with Gafford, Yeah, man, they're gonna give Previel problems.
Xcellm's here too. Still he can they have to re
sign him, but I can. They have something called early
bird rights. When you need to get into him, you
can get point guard minutes. Absolutely, and he's a good defender.
Didn't what he he ain't come back? Eric, Yeah, he's
your to me, he's your starter to me. Him and
(49:23):
Anthony Davis are starting side by side with PJ with
PJ Flag and then Nausey or Clay or Chris Paul
did the name Malcolm Brogg didn't make it out there.
I didn't see the two names that were floated in
his arcle row Lonzo ball players are monitor which I
don't have a lot of interesting only because I I
just it's he's gonna get hurt. He's now it is.
(49:46):
I'm sorry it sucks for him. And then Drew Holliday,
which would be a lot of maneuvering, and I think
it's too much money for him at that age. He
makes a ton of money. But you know, and uh,
everybody talking about the Celtics. You know, hey, the Celtics
are going to get rid of guys. And I was like, oh,
I want Derek White. I'm like, man, the Celtics are
going to try to get off Drew Holiday. Because think
(50:06):
about this, by the time Tatum is back Drew Holidays
only thirty seven making that much money. Yeah, Derek White's
only thirty one, so and his contract's about to go up.
But anyways, it's pretty fun that there's stuff like this
to talk about with the Dallas man. I did not
seem likely, you know, three weeks ago. Now, Hey, what's
(50:27):
coming up in the weekday Update? Well, I've got some
bad news in terms of business in DFW. Man, what
a jerk. I'm sorry. We'll do it next then. And
Skin Show ninety seven point one The Eagle, it's your boys,
KT skin little Baby corn Bread Christina, and we are
holding it down this week, Big Ben on vacation. Now
(50:47):
coming up at the bottom of the hour, we have
a little music news exercise for you. It's going to
be fun and you can play along at home or
in your car or whatever however you want to do.
Speaker 5 (50:57):
It.
Speaker 1 (50:58):
I want to remind you that one of our great
sponsors is Andrew's American Pizza Kitchen. That's the delicious pizza
joint in Plano right there at Preston and Plano Parkway.
They have mastered five different styles of pizza and they
all good. Now, if you haven't had the Dallas style,
you gotta do that because that's kind of like the
proprietary thing that they do. It's the legacy of Picasso's pizza.
(51:20):
If you remember that back in the day. Get it
with the buttercrust. Trust me, great pasta dishes, incredible bar,
they got Chicago Deep Dish, they got the Detroit style,
they got Philly Tavern, they got classic New York style
where you fold that joint over and shove it in
your mouth. You're gonna love it. Preston and Plano Parkway.
It's Andrew's American Pizza Kitchen. But right now it's time
(51:40):
for this, and now it's time for Basins. Sweet Day
Up Day featuring veteran news anchor kt fon tweets.
Speaker 2 (51:50):
Here are the important stories he's currently tracking from around
the world.
Speaker 1 (51:55):
Hey bags fly free. Now YouMore a a now at
Southwest Airlines, no, they're not doing it anymore. You have
If you're in a check a bag, this isna be
thirty five dollars. If you're in a check a second bag,
it's gonna be forty five dollars.
Speaker 3 (52:08):
Okay.
Speaker 1 (52:09):
So I don't know if this is because I have
an American Express card, but my first bag on American Airlines,
I never have to pay for it. Same, Well it's
American Airlines, so okay. Well I was just I was
just making sure it wasn't like some you know, part
of a club thing I have. Yeah, you might be
Gucci fan. Well well, my whole point though, is that
(52:29):
they went from all bags fly free to now none
of them. They ran on it. They ran on it
was their whole thing.
Speaker 3 (52:35):
I will go ahead, Well don't they have a similar
program to that? They said, like if you get their
credit card, Oh yeah, you can get one for free.
Speaker 1 (52:43):
Yeah, if you want to get in their loyalty thing, okay,
year and do all that stuff again. They ran on that.
They also ran on a great commercial campaign. For many years.
Something embarrassing would happen and it would go want to
get away? Yeah, because when something when you pup your
pants in public, you immediately just get on a plane. Okay.
They had a great slogan as well for a long
(53:04):
time when they would do the ding like the captain
was coming over there, you are now free to fly
around the country. Yeah, that's that was a great slogan iconic.
I like Southwest Airlines because I love Field's closer, and
it's just it's just kind of nice. I'm with you,
but this is gonna hurt people who are going long distance.
(53:24):
And my other thing on Southwest, I'm gonna knock them
for a minute. There's not a lot of options on flights.
You got like, Okay, I want to go here on
this day, Well here's one flight you can Yeah where
if you go to American and well there's nine flights
to choose from today. Dude, we are going to We're
going to New York. But the reason we're going there
is our buddy Paul is doing a show in Staten
(53:46):
Island in July and we were pulling up flights, a
thousand of them. Paul Paul Shalda, Yes, Statton Island. Yeah,
gotta go to the Collins Joe just Pete Davidson Ferry.
Uh is that what that's called that he should do
a show on that fair that would be great. But anyway,
as we were pulling up flights, and to your point
(54:06):
on American there's a thousand flights going to New York.
Be constant, chuck full all day long, you can pick.
I was thinking to compensate for this. What do you
think about old Remember that story we did a few
weeks ago about that old lady. They wouldn't let her fly. Oh,
the ninety nine year old lady or one hundred or
house was very old and they didn't believe her. And
(54:27):
it's like, okay, how about Hags fly free. That's a
great roma. Women over ninety. Yeah, that's how Southwest could
get me back in I like women over ninety free flights. Yeah,
senior citizens. Yeah, that's the Hags fly Free. Great promo
starting in a few years probably once they get this.
(54:47):
And is it still going to be a free for
all where you just line up and then go grab
any seat? Because I heard they were changing that, right,
I think they already changed it. Yeah I would. I
haven't flown with him in a while.
Speaker 3 (54:57):
That's just a horrible strategy. Anyway, like people already again,
I fly American airlines, I have for years, But it's
already chaotic when we have our groups, like people just
stand there. Even if their group is five, they call
group one. People all huddle up there. So I can't
imagine a free for all.
Speaker 1 (55:13):
We do need order. Oh god. It is weird too.
When you like you're in position number six, you're like, dope,
this is great. I'll be on the front row or
wherever you not have leg room. And then they start
calling all these groups in front of you. Have you
guys ever seen Bill Burr's a bit about this. No,
Bill Burr's got this hilarity. It's a really great bit
where he's at the very front and he's like, all right,
(55:34):
him in pole position, he says, And then they start
calling these groups, right, they're calling these groups. And then
they call these veterans, and I'm like, wait a minute,
how do we know what kind of veterans they are?
Did that guy actually see action? Action? Because if he
wasn't an office, why does he get to get on
in front of me? Was this guy working at the
(55:57):
pro shop? Yes? So good, dude. McDonald's is shutting down
all cosmics locations. That is a very quick distruction.
Speaker 3 (56:09):
And they had four right here in Texas.
Speaker 1 (56:12):
Yeah, I've got one. I've got one half a mile
from my house. Same same I went on too. In fact,
grant opening day there was throwing up some free drinks.
Ran into Tim McMahon there, big memory. You know, never
forget that day. I can't believe they're gone already. This
is like under two years. Oh dude, it's under a year.
I think the free clasted longer than cosin so I
(56:34):
think so, and I think we offered more so. One
of the problems with cosmics you do know what the
food options. Okay, so you're getting coffee, drinks or whatever,
and you think something they got pretzel bites.
Speaker 5 (56:43):
What.
Speaker 3 (56:44):
Yeah, it was a weird premise. But I'm not a
big like drink person, so I think it was more
steered for kids. It was, I think because my daughter
will go to Dutch Bros. Or any of those places.
Speaker 1 (56:55):
Dude. I mean my family soured on it really fast,
like we went, you know, okay, it's close, no one's
ever there, and it's like, man, I don't know that
I dig the options. Yeah, what does it say about
them closing like across the country or just in Texas. Well,
there's one in Illinois, Foreign Texas closing by late June. Yeah,
(57:18):
I don't really know that there's too much about Yeah,
I don't really know.
Speaker 3 (57:21):
Are those all the locations? Because I saw that too,
and I was like, there's no way there's only five locations.
Speaker 1 (57:26):
With four of them all attach to god, I've seen
them all. Yeah, man, we need to I wouldn't mind
making a quick trip to Illinois to get all five in.
All right, it's the Ben and Skin Show ninety seven
point one. The Eagle coming up next. Kat explain what's
happening in music news. Well, this Great Rock Publication put
out a list of bands that they say are the
best by the letter Rock and Roll. ABC's next, No
(57:49):
on a Wednesday, guy. That's the thing about Memorial Day
or Labor days. Then you get the four day work week. Oh.
I forgot to tell you, guys, I didn't drink yesterday.
Speaker 3 (58:00):
Yeah, and you're still alive.
Speaker 1 (58:02):
Yeah, you see more lively. Yeah, I'm gonna be drinking
here shortly. I'm to go to meet my buddy Cido.
But oh no, yeah, I hadn't seen him in a while.
But I didn't drink yesterday.
Speaker 3 (58:10):
Good for you.
Speaker 1 (58:11):
Yeah, you know what it reminds me of this. You know,
the more you think about it, that's kind of a
gross intro. I love it. I think it's our best intro.
Loudwire is a music publication. They like to talk about
(58:32):
the upcoming tours. They do some interviews, news and lists,
you know, stuff like that. They still support the music industry.
Stuff for jocks, really for anyone who likes music. And
they have put out this list. It is the rock
and roll Alphabet, the best rock band for each letter
of the alphabet. Incredible. So I thought we could run
(58:54):
through and just kind of see all these old bands
or their solo artists. A lot of bands, A lot
of bands, okay, just bands. So you know, if you've
got any alternatives, have them ready, A ACD. We all
know A. We're all good with that too, right. I
don't think there's gonna be any fine on that one.
I would consider pop supergroup Asia.
Speaker 3 (59:15):
Oh. I thought you would say Aerosmith.
Speaker 1 (59:17):
No, I'd rather have my nuts run over than listen
to anything by Aerosmith. After Toys in the attic, b Oh,
go ahead, I'll just say if you put on seventies Aerosmith,
I'm cool and loving an elevator or anything like that.
Just seriously, take a bat to my head. I just
don't think you can even get to an alternative pray
that's even worthy of discussion. What about ambrosia?
Speaker 3 (59:36):
Nope, anthrax oh.
Speaker 1 (59:39):
Dunk don dude, you gotta consider more than anthrax. Okay,
they're not relatable, Like, no one good good, No one
ever gives a patient anthrax so that they can deal
with their pain. Anthrax kills you. Kevin a CDC worthy champion, Yeah,
(59:59):
for sure. Absolutely, They're the ask Kings. Yeah. B the Beatles,
I mean, I think it has to be that, either
that or Bad Company.
Speaker 3 (01:00:08):
They're going Hall of Fame. Let's give it to him
one years Bad Company they.
Speaker 1 (01:00:13):
Got three songs. You would not give it to Bad Company.
Speaker 3 (01:00:17):
Black Keys?
Speaker 1 (01:00:18):
Oh, I mean for the modern audience. Yeah, that Bastards
of Souls for sure. Uh, it's got to be the Beatles.
So okay, and I I think the Black Keys are
are worthy of consideration. Is there anybody we're forgetting? I
don't think so Bad Finger, bad Fingers, my Baby Blue
(01:00:39):
Breaking bad Finally, yeah, pretty good. The Bad Finger, I
believe is a Weren't they on Apple Records, which is
the label the Beatles started. I have no idea. I
think I don't know my questions.
Speaker 3 (01:00:54):
Counting Crows is the first.
Speaker 1 (01:00:57):
Don't laugh, They're great. I love it is your winner
on this list. Are serious, dude, my sacrifice? Can you
take me higher my own prison? With arms wide open?
I would take c cr Hell, I'd take Crosscadien rag Weed,
I would take the Carpenters over Creed. My God would play.
Speaker 3 (01:01:19):
Good Creed here.
Speaker 1 (01:01:20):
Okay, Creed's Creed just got cold played and nickelbacked. They're
not the worst band, they just got the reputation as
being the worst band. I think Christina brings up the
best one for me. I do love CCR like they
don't get old to me. A lot of classic rock
gets old to me. They don't get old to me.
D Devo the Darkness, Oh they're fun. Oh dude, do
(01:01:47):
O Theo hedgebucht uh No really day Deaf Leopard all right.
I have a soft spot in my heart for Deaf
Leppard because I was in junior high when Pirate Romania. Okay, well,
I've got a soft spart for Creed because that all
their crap came out when I was a junior high
all right, I want Human Clay. Yeah, everyone, let's go
(01:02:09):
head to head def Leppard and Creed. Who do you
take Creed? I'm not saying you right now, I'm just
saying listeners, you just said you would take Creed. Anyone
over forty has taken def Leppard. I don't know, man,
I din't think there's a nostalgia thing with def Leppard.
O some Sugar me. I mean that song sucks, but
(01:02:30):
you know what I'm saying, like early def Leopard, me
and my wine, bringing on the heartbreak, rock of Ages,
rock of agest, bit, let's get rocked. Yeah. Photograph is
it great? I love photographs. A great song, It's like
a pop song. Bite that one's good too, Okay.
Speaker 2 (01:02:49):
I think.
Speaker 1 (01:02:56):
Having said all that, I'd rather listen to Dio, e Elo,
Electric Light or Electric six.
Speaker 3 (01:03:04):
Okay, yeah, it's Electric six, but Elo has got a
broader reach.
Speaker 1 (01:03:08):
It's got to be Electric Light Orchestra Eagles. Oh yeah,
of course I have to defer, right, you know what?
So the Eagles, They've got a bunch of songs that
I would be good if they never existed. But if
you put together their top seven or eight songs, you're
going to absolutely love them, and they're not going to
wear you out. F Fleetwood, Mac Father John, Misty, fog Hat,
(01:03:30):
Franz Ferdinand. They say find South. Of course I have
no problem with that. Okay, I'm he did so did
you really have to ask? Does that song?
Speaker 3 (01:03:42):
Over and over and over? We haven't heard about their
new drummer yet, right, there's no drummer.
Speaker 1 (01:03:47):
Okay, you'll find out. Okay, you'll find out. G Spot.
Speaker 3 (01:03:52):
Green Day, Oh.
Speaker 1 (01:03:53):
That's a great one. Yeah, it's got to be Green Day.
Who am I forgetting Gang Green for your time? Oh?
I don't like them? Who Christina? You've seen them a popular,
real popular with the g one of the most popular
bands of the eighties, the Go Gos no.
Speaker 3 (01:04:14):
The eighties, and I've seen them. That's strange. Guns and Roses,
Oh yeah, that wasn't a great show. Sorry, it's you've
got to take guns I would I. I like Green
Day more than Guns and Roses too. I was taking
Green Day, but no, it's hard to.
Speaker 1 (01:04:32):
Have a better album than Appetite for Destruction though. That's
just one of those monster albums of old time that's undefeated.
Should we go and pick it up at h Are
we good? Yeah? Let's pick it up at h I'll
give us time to think about it. Yeah, while we
listen to music. All right, we're gonna get to the
backside of the alphabet. But Ben and Skin Show ninety

(01:05:45):
According to Loudwire, one of our favorite publications always so
h they have a band h is tough h bands
out there, sail Storm. Oh, I mean after that Hoodi
and the Blowfish you kind of get Also, yeah, I
could take a one him her.
Speaker 3 (01:06:07):
Well him as an actual is her an actual?
Speaker 1 (01:06:08):
Oh? Yes, Jesus, Oh Jesus are on h. I don't
know what you got, heart. I mean they got four
songs I can deal with. Let's move do I in excess?
The Interpool is the first one across my mind. But
(01:06:30):
that's a little too indie probably, Yeah, Incubus perfect never
really did it for me, though, I didn't have to
say it out loud. Just keep it to yourself. Oh
you did say that out loud. Okay, Sometimes I'm in
your thoughts, Jay j I would take Judas Priest over Journey,
(01:06:58):
but I'm sure they put Journey had Jack White on mine.
Speaker 3 (01:07:01):
Yeah you can't.
Speaker 1 (01:07:02):
I thought we're doing bands, we kin are ok because
they went with Christina. You're gonna you're gonna paint yourself
for this. You're gonna not like this one Jimmy Hendricks experience.
Oh yeah, you can do that because it was a trio.
You can do that the Jimmy Hendricks experience ka craft work.
I mean for me it would be the Killers.
Speaker 3 (01:07:22):
Oh yeah, yeah Killers.
Speaker 1 (01:07:24):
I think for most people it would be Crocus. You're
gonna your first concert? Oh, Kiss, Kiss, and that makes sense? Yeah?
Can you guys believe I saw Kiss when I was nine?
Did they play Beth? Hell? Yeah they did. Peter Chris
got old sentimental Skin. You get to go first on
this one, and then me Elle uh oh. The Japanese
(01:07:47):
metal band Loudness. Go ahead, Christina, Leon Bridges el lover Boy.
Speaker 3 (01:07:52):
Oh, led Zeppelin because I'm thinking z that's why Led Zepplin.
Speaker 1 (01:07:57):
Your first name is led Zipp. Would you take led
Zeppelin over the Lover Boy?
Speaker 3 (01:08:03):
Yes?
Speaker 1 (01:08:04):
What about over Creed?
Speaker 3 (01:08:05):
Yes? I take Zeppelin over every band.
Speaker 1 (01:08:08):
Zeppelin's it was pretty cool. After the Black Keys show,
the house music was Led Zeppelin.
Speaker 3 (01:08:14):
That was amazing.
Speaker 1 (01:08:15):
Yeah. Man, Christina is floating on clouds having the best night.
Don't you have ramble on and you're like your bio
on one of your social media yep, and they're playing
ramble On in honor of Christine. He was on Cloud
nine and we were over there on Cloud eight holding
her dog. Why well, no, you did it though it's fun.
(01:08:39):
Stay over the hold. People say that. I want to
make sure though everybody understood we were holding our own
dongs like you weren't holding mine and I wasn't holding yours.
We were standing on Cloud eight, but we were holding
our own individual dolls. Clarify, what is that cloud didn't
come from? It's a great temptation song, is it? And
(01:09:00):
then the first to do it who came up with
the term, I don't know, it's good and we need
to know? Call him Metallica. What the legendary Seattle band
Modest Mouse. No, I did not Motley Crue. Oh I
take Metallica over Motley loud Wire, known for being a
(01:09:21):
little more classic than was around in the eighties.
Speaker 3 (01:09:25):
I know, I know, but.
Speaker 1 (01:09:28):
Freaking ninth grade. I think Motley Crue is terrible in
Nirvana easy, all right, sorry, I took your I stole
your thing, either them or Nazareth.
Speaker 3 (01:09:42):
We're playing to Save the Cicada show June eighth, by the.
Speaker 1 (01:09:45):
Way, Okay, June eighth is give me a day of
the week, Dear Cat Sunday, all right, little baby corn Bread.
Speaker 2 (01:09:54):
Oh?
Speaker 1 (01:09:58):
Also Motley Ausie, Oh well, he's not a band Automatopedia,
and we think they're going to be touring if they
can keep it together. Oasis, I still think every day
that goes by and they haven't reunited just yet, there's
a chance that it all fizzles out. I don't have
(01:10:20):
a problem with Oasis.
Speaker 3 (01:10:22):
Yeah, pe Pink Floyd.
Speaker 1 (01:10:25):
Oh, it's got to be Pink Floyd, Pantera, Pearl Jam.
I personally prefer Pink Floyd to Pearl Jam, but I
totally understand if you want to be Pearl Jam guy,
I'd say they're probably on the same level. For me,
I would say I like him. Our listeners are like
Dimebag bro It's Pantera, suck it, q Queen's reke Yes,
(01:10:50):
Queens of the Stone Age Yeah, Queens of the Stone Age.
For me, I think it'll just be Queen. Yes, great
work everyone. I actually prefer Queens of the Stone Age
to Queen. Come on, Quintin Start is just great. But
let's not act like they're better than Queen's incredible. All right, fine,
come on? Fine? Are Radiohead going to the mall?
Speaker 5 (01:11:13):

that are good, The Ramones, Rolling Stone, Yeah whatever, Rolling
(01:11:38):
Stones just like whatever yet and you know that let
me go back, let me go back right quick. On
P would you guys consider the Police? Yeah, definitely, I
freaking love consideration. Yeah, I mean you you get three
guys together that are that good. And by the way,
(01:11:58):
on R you could put Rush in there talking about
power trios. Absolutely, But man, the level of musicianshipping those
two bands, specifically Police and Rush, oh my god.
Speaker 3 (01:12:08):
Yes, oh uh, I'm not seeing sticks. I'm not saying sticks.
Speaker 1 (01:12:13):
God. I'd rather if we're talking over it should be
sligned the family Stone. But yeah, they're not. We're not.
We're just doing rock. Yeah, I would say Steely Dan
over Strokes. I like the Strokes, but I prefer Steely Dan.
But I'm also a fifty four year old white guy
sound Garden. Wow, totally cool with that, dude.
Speaker 3 (01:12:33):

stuff before Chris passed away? They might release it?

have the Talking Heads? Yeah? Okay, you know I love
the Talking Who did they say? A band with a
huge fan base and very very loyal tripping Daisy Tool?

Speaker 1 (01:13:41):
Is that who they have? They took the Who? All right?
Who's better Who? Or Weezer two seven eight seven nine

would they go a more pop alternative rock band?

They do on those tours every year, great, the Who, Riley,
Pinball Wizard.
