Episode Transcript

Speaker 1 (00:00):
WLLZ Detroit one six point seven Detroit's wheels any heart
radio station guarantee human.

Speaker 2 (00:10):
And we can confirm that based on something that happened yesterday. Yes,
we'll get into that in a little bit, because we
we did hang out with Gene Simmons for a few minutes.

Speaker 3 (00:20):
He's a big fan of you. I could tell he
likes you a lot.

Speaker 2 (00:25):
I don't blame myself for any of this that in
terms of his attitude towards me.

Speaker 4 (00:29):
No, no, no no, although he clearly didn't like me and
can't wait to talk about it.

Speaker 3 (00:37):
So we'll see. I kept replaying it back in my
mind on the drive home.

Speaker 4 (00:41):
Think, keep finding all of these different things that were
said that I think we're supposed to be insults.

Speaker 2 (00:47):
What I'll think everything. I think the whole thing was
supposed to be an insult. But we'll get into that
a little bit. We did go over to this media
gathering and grand opening of Rock and Bruise in Royal
log which cool place. The vine is awesome, very cool. Yeah,
joined in there, so wow, very cool.

Speaker 3 (01:06):
The core blew my mind.

Speaker 2 (01:08):
It was a lot cooler than the one in Saint Louis.
So I went in Saint Louis, and you know, it
was just kind of okay. But I think the building
helps this one. Like the building in Saint Louis, I
think is just a single story, like this is multiple story.
Feels almost like it's got like an old school house
of bluesy vibe.

Speaker 3 (01:25):
Oh yeah, yeah, yeah yeah.

Speaker 2 (01:27):
And which you never even see house of blues anymore anywhere.
I mean, there's probably a handful of them still around,
but it kind of gives off that vibe. But cooler.
It's a cool place. It's just a lot of Detroit
rock history in there too. No very cool. So we'll
get into that. It is Friday. We do have one
final pair of tickets to see Weezer that's coming up

(01:50):
at eight twenty five today, so we got that. We
have a lot to do, lots and lots, and since
it is Friday, we will kick things off. Mitch Ryder
and the Dean Troy Wheels. I didn't see Mitch today.
I think they actually have him stuffed.

Speaker 3 (02:06):
Yeahs.

Speaker 2 (02:08):
Although he's not dead, so maybe he's not stuffed. He's
just fre Mitch Ryder is the house band, it was,
he just works there. He's a busboy.

Speaker 1 (02:17):
Actually, the Josh shows.

Speaker 2 (02:22):
So I'm seeing text messages from yesterday. Oh yeah, right
around ten o'clock, and it's like talking about some song
that's playing another like, well, if you can play this song,
why can't you play blank? Blank and blank? And I'm like,
what the hell are we talking about? I'm guessing that
was the uh that Peter Frampton and Tom Morello song.

(02:42):
Did we play that yesterday? Oh?

Speaker 3 (02:44):
I think we're supposed to.

Speaker 2 (02:45):
Yeah, yeah, I have no idea. It was like ane
by the time ten o'clock rolls around, I'm like, hey,
I washed my hands of it.

Speaker 4 (02:51):
Yeah, done, So I have no idea moving under the
next task that we have to complete.

Speaker 2 (02:56):
So I'm gonna guess that's what that was from yesterday. Then,
So that just because you heard a random Tom Morello
and Peter Frampton song does not mean I was responsible
for playing it, and does not mean I have the
jurisdiction to play anything that I want.

Speaker 3 (03:13):
I do not.

Speaker 2 (03:14):
I agree the other song of the day you could play,
I don't know that play this, play this. I'm trying
to see it, like, actually, no, that's not on there either.
Let me see her. It might have been at the
end of the nine o'clock hour. Let's see, let's see
if they're just play.

Speaker 4 (03:29):
You know, it would be funny if they were listening
to the podcast from the day before and it was
Rex Manning day and he heard the Rex.

Speaker 3 (03:36):
Manning song send It next in.

Speaker 2 (03:38):
Maybe it didn't play. Maybe we didn't play the Tom
Morello song. Well, I mean these texts came in ten
o'clock in nine to fifty nine. Don't know if that
song was supposed to play, but I'm glad it did,
Thanks Josh. Sure, And I have no idea what song
this would have been. Oh wait, this from from Sorry Rong.
I'm looking at the wrong day. Hold on, this might

(03:58):
have been. Okay, let me see. Let me look at yesterday.
So let's see yesterday at ten o'clock. Let's see Blur
song two. No, I mean that that plays. Let's see.
I don't see what that would have been. I'm gonna
guess that's what it was. Just it doesn't show up

(04:20):
in my log over here, but I'm gonna guess it did.
I'm gonna guess it play it because everything else that's
played yesterday would have fallen under the category of songs
we play. Okay, so I'm gonna guess that's the song
that played. Unless something random played that I don't I'm
gonna guess it was this Tom Morello and Peter Frampton's song.

(04:43):
I think if you were listening yesterday, let me know.
Text Josh and your message to five one. Anyway, the
Red Wings won last night. Dylan Larkin had a hat
trick in four points. Wow, here's the bad news, though
Ottawa also won, so the the Red Wings rather sit
three points behind Ottawa with three games to go, They

(05:04):
are tied with the New York Islanders with ninety one points.
They are appointed ahead of Columbus, who has ninety and
two ahead of Washington, who has eighty nine three games remaining.
For the Wings, you get New Jersey at home tomorrow
than at Tampa and at Florida in the season. The
Tigers were swept by the Twins yesterday. They fall at
four and nine on the year. Gave up two runs

(05:27):
in the bottom of the eighth. Hey, I told you
this yesterday. When you have two crappy pitchers going, maybe
it'll be a pitcher's duel.

Speaker 1 (05:33):
It was.

Speaker 2 (05:35):
Jack Flairdy gave up a run in five and two
thirds innings. Mick Abel gave up zero runs in six
so I don't know if that just says he turned
a corner of the Tigers offense really blows.

Speaker 3 (05:47):
See, kids, you can do anything you want. I'm bick abel.

Speaker 2 (05:50):
So one run between those two guys. Coming up next,
the Tigers are at home against Miami tonight for a series.
Pistons are at Charlotte seven pm. And that game means
absolutely nothing to the Pistons, like the rest of their
regular season games, and there you go. That is sports.

(06:10):
So it had to be some current song to play
because dudes are like, go play this current person or
this current song. So I'm gonna guess it was like
a n iHeart World premiere type of thing of this
Peter Frampton song Peter Frampton and Tom Morello. I thought
Peter Frampton was dead. Apparently he's not. He's doing songs

(06:30):
with Tom Morello. There you go, all right, So eight
twenty five today you will get Wheezer tickets. Wheezer tickets
at eight twenty five today, And we have a story
about meeting Gene Simmons yesterday. All we have is a
story that's the only evidence that in a photo tory,
a photo and a couple of shaky videos. It's about

(06:51):
all we have. But we'll get into that story in
a little bit. It is the Josh Ennis Show. The
Josh in is shown now at eight seven seven eight
one O six seven one O six point seven LZ
detroit Ts Wheels one O six point seven Detroit's Wheels. Actually,
so maybe I'm wrong here. The song that I was

(07:15):
referring to earlier, where like, if you can play this song,
then why aren't you play the.

Speaker 3 (07:18):
Distor song that somebody heard? Or we don't know what
song'm talking about.

Speaker 2 (07:20):
It may have been Civil War by Guns n' Roses,
which I would have assumed we played, But I assume
we do. It's it's a random I mean, it's not
like it's it's a relatively deep cut, I guess, and
the Guns n' Roses universe.

Speaker 3 (07:34):
You don't hear it as often.

Speaker 2 (07:35):
And there's no way we would have played. I don't
think we would have played the Uh, maybe we would have.
Did you ever get an email that said we were
gonna play the Peter Frampton song? I thought something came
through from corporate. This is again, this is not a
big deal. But when I started seeing these text messages,
and they're like, hey, what if the you know you
played this song and this is awesome, thanks for playing this.
I'm like, look, you're giving me too much credit. Anytime

(07:57):
you crap on somebody for the music, that's Casey. Anytime
you praise the music, that's Casey, unless it's Devil with
a Blue Dress on Friday Morning. Everything else is Casey's choice,
So good or bad, that's on him.

Speaker 4 (08:09):
It says tomorrow, April ninth, So this email came Wednesday. Yeah,
I heard Media Classic rock stations will World premiere the
new Peter Frampton song Lions at the Gate featuring Tom Morello. Okay,
the song is iHeart exclusive for twenty four hours, gotcha, So.

Speaker 3 (08:24):
No other stations will.

Speaker 2 (08:25):
So I still don't know if we actually played it
or not, like we could have so so that may
not have been what people were referring to. They may
have just been referring to Civil War, which did play.
So if so, I mean, thank you for complimenting us
on playing a forty year old song. So thanks, I guess.
But yeah, so.

Speaker 3 (08:45):
I know he've played it before.

Speaker 2 (08:47):
Yeah, so it's not Maybe it could be someone who
listens only in the mornings or something. And doesn't hear
it all that often, and then you know, I don't know.
It's a lot of inside baseball here' where that I
just thought that maybe we had played that at Tom
Morello and Peter Frampton song.

Speaker 4 (09:03):
Which we may have is supposed to play every so often.

Speaker 2 (09:06):
Now I just want to listen to Baby I Love
Your Way. Well, Frampton comes a lot. I love your
words every day. I have a debate a lot of
times about Peter Frampton and his version of baby I
Love Your Way versus there are three different versions of
Baby I Love Your Way. There's Peter Frampton, then there's
a band called Will to Power that was responsible for

(09:26):
a song called the Baby I Love Your Way freebird
medley from the late eighties. And then there's Big Mountain,
who's got like a reggae type of version of Baby
I Love Your Way.

Speaker 4 (09:35):
Mountain is the one I think I know the most
because that's a big time grocery store baking and it
is outstanding.

Speaker 2 (09:41):
I love their version of it too. Let's see Peter
Frampton that you this seems like some other weird version
of it. I don't like this version. There's a thousand
different versions and it's just a crapshoot for your boy
in here. I just gotta click one and hope for
the best shadows cross as all befo. Let's see if

(10:02):
this is a better version of like Oh thank you,
there we Go. That's a great example of a song.
And I was having this debate with some of the
guys in the office. It was the most old man
discussion ever, just about like all these bands of the
seventies and stuff. Yeah, and we're talking about the songs
that are better in a live version, and they are

(10:24):
more identifiable, Like this version of Baby I Love Your
Way is more identifiable than the studio version. I don't
even know if the studio version of Baby I Love
Your Way sounds like the version I will always hearing.
But then there are are songs like turn the Page.
I don't even know. I don't know that I've ever
heard the studio version of Turn the Page. All I
know is the you know, live version of Bay of

(10:45):
that one and this one. But then there are songs
that have live versions that aren't as good as the
studio Like there's a mid nineties version of Hotel Californian.
I think it was from like the Hell Freezes over era.
Maybe when the Eagles did a they did like an
unplugged type of deal when they came back for help.
Freeze is over and it's got like maroccas and stuff,

(11:06):
and I just don't like it. I just don't think
it's a very good version. It's not as good as
the studio version of Hotel Californy. It's not going to close.
But then there are some that are like like when
I was in Saint Louis, for whatever reason, we didn't
play the live version of rock and Roll All Night
by Kids. We played a studio version, so our version
didn't have the it's rocking roll pot I have that

(11:30):
at the beginning. We didn't have that, and I was like, well,
this doesn't make sense to me. We should be playing
the version that everybody in the world plays, but we
didn't for whatever reason. But we played a random live
version of money Moany, Like why do we play live moaning?
More like what are we?

Speaker 3 (11:44):
What are we?

Speaker 2 (11:44):
I'm the problem? Huh, I'm the problem live Mony mar
I get lost? What are some other examples of that?
Where the live version which was released and is more
well known than the studio version of the song. What
you gonna call it Jane's addiction, and it was it
caught Stealing.

Speaker 3 (12:05):
My Baby.

Speaker 4 (12:06):
No, I remember you'd always hear the live version of that. Yeah,
I'm not the studio.

Speaker 2 (12:10):
Yeah. So if you guys want to get in, text
the word Josh and your message to five one eight
A one five one eight a one. This was kind
of a discussion we were having in the office yesterday,
very old man discussion with me and you know, Matt,
the sales guy in here. We're just sitting around and
Casey's listening, and I can tell he's kind of judging
because we're like, hey, what's your favorite Little River Band song? Like,

(12:30):
just really old man discussions. I'm not old, but my
discussions when it comes to music can uh, you know,
dip a toe into the old man world, like you know,
the Little River Band and yacht rock and stuff. But uh, anyway,
so I'm guessing just to put a button on all this,
put a bow on it. I guess people were referring

(12:51):
to Civil War by guns n' Roses because I don't
think we played the Peter Frampton song. So if you're
happy that we played guns n' Roses, that was my call.
And if you're not. That was Casey's call, and he sucks.
So take it up with him.

Speaker 5 (13:08):
All right.

Speaker 2 (13:10):
We do have a Gene Simmons story to share here
in the seven o'clock hour. I got a call from
my dad yesterday. He goes, you met Gene Simmons. Why
didn't you tell him that? I said, Hi, I'm like, Dad,
you don't know Gene Simmons. He goes, I was in this.
There was the Scooby movie with kiss he Loves, He
Loves Scooby Doo. I was like, Dad, you weren't in
the Kiss Scooby Doo movie. He goes, he doesn't know that.

(13:31):
You gotta fake it till you make it. Joshua one
of those six point seven Detroit Wheels josh in his show.
All right, So coming up in sports, it looks like
two lady leagues are coming to town. Two ladies sports
leagues are, I mean, one's officially coming to town and
one it's on the fence. We are in the real
era of ladies can do stuff nowdies.

Speaker 3 (13:52):
Can do stuff now, and you're gonna have to learn
how to deal with it.

Speaker 2 (13:55):
You're gonna have to. So we got that coming up
in sports and our day with Gene Simmons. And by
our day, I mean our ninety seconds with Gene Simmons.
And by that I mean we have no evidence that
it ever took place other than a photo. We'll explain
why that is the case and how it all went
over at Rock and Bruis in Royal Oak yesterday, which,
by the way, very very cool place, very so you

(14:17):
should go check that out if you get a chance.
It is very badass, very cool. So but as I
call it, planet Drew Wood. But I also didn't see
I didn't run into Drew. We ran into big gym.
We did.

Speaker 3 (14:29):
We did.

Speaker 2 (14:29):
We did talk to Big Jim, who left his neighborhood
or house or whatever to come out to fill a buster.
Basically in the interview line with Gene Simmons, I think
everybody who's Phillipus like we're just waiting there, like, look,
I'm just here. My boss is making me come here
to talk with Gene Simmons. Can you guys hurry it
along so I can, you know, have some audio And
then we finally get there, and then we have no

(14:51):
audio of our counter with Gen Simmons. So now I
got to deal with Casey. But we'll do that and
we'll share that story with you. Doug was there and
he goes, hey, it's a issue. I'm like, well, then
you know you can come back. I heard the case.
He would give you the option to fight Laura to
the death for mid Days. I think that's how it
goes Yep, that's how it's going to go down. I

(15:11):
also saw some some headline about somebody being involved in
a sextortion scam and AI sextortion scam in Saint Clair,
and I'm like, Doug.

Speaker 4 (15:22):
Don't don't get Doug, don't click that link. Doug, I
don't want to give up too much info. But it's
not a Saint clear man. That's true, But I don't know.
That doesn't mean I don't know. I don't know where
I was gonna go with.

Speaker 2 (15:33):
I was trying to make fun of Doug for, you know,
giving everybody a virus on their computer. No, it's okay.
I ruined it. I blew it.

Speaker 4 (15:40):
It wasn't good, didn't I just know too much for
my own good?

Speaker 3 (15:44):
Sometimes, yeah, you do.

Speaker 2 (15:45):
Anyway, So sports coming up, and then our our day
minutes are minutes, minutes, our seconds with the best minutes
of my life I'll tell you about it, Josh.

Speaker 1 (15:55):
In his show one six point seven Double l l
Z Jos show Sport.

Speaker 2 (16:05):
All right, coming up in just a few we'll have
our our story about meeting Gene Simmons. I'm actually interested
in your point of view of all that, because I
haven't really talked with you about it. I lived it,
I guess more so than and there's no evidence of
it other than a photo. But we did have an
encounter with Gene Simmons, and we'll get into it. Red

(16:26):
Wings last night were winners over the Flyers six to three.
Dylan Larkin had a hat trick, which means I won't
have to get text messages from Tony Travado at least
for one day about how Dylan Larkin's terrible. Oh, I'm
sure it won't stop. One game will not change, you know,
eight years of being the captain of the bad obvious,
such bad stuff about the captain. My man's very passionate
about the Red Wings. He's nothing if not passionate. But

(16:50):
the bad news is Audiwa one. So Autow was still
three points up on the Wings with three games to go,
and there's still a log jam because the Islanders have
ninety one points. That's the same number of points as
the Wings. Columbus is one point behind them, thus four
points behind Ottawa. Washington is five points back of Ottawa,
but still alive. Three games left for the Wings. They're

(17:12):
hosting New Jersey this weekend, then next week off to
Tampa and Florida. Then the hockey playoffs start. The odds
are those hockey playoffs again will not include the Red Wings.
Tigers were swept by Minnesota. They folded four and nine
on the year. By the way, not a great start,
not at all, obviously, he said, you know, an obvious statement,

(17:34):
four and nine. But hey, at least Jack Flirting pitched. Well,
that's a positive. And the Twins scored two in the
bottom of the eighth of that game. It was a
one to one game. They got a two out bases
loaded knock to score those two runs. The Tigers host
Miami this weekend. The Pistons are at Charlotte seven o'clock tonight.
That game means nothing. Hey, the WNBA has formally approved

(17:58):
the Detroit expansion team. Okay, so we're gonna have lady
basketball here in twenty twenty nine. Got I don't think
that's what you meant to say, sir, that's inappropriate. Don't
be don't be misogynistic. We have lady basketball here now,
he must really be into angel read. She'll be coming

(18:20):
through town. And I guess Caitlin Clark got that's that's
what he's gonna do in Sophie Cunningham got your hat
and other lady basketball players got your hat.

Speaker 3 (18:37):
There you go still play?

Speaker 6 (18:39):
No?

Speaker 3 (18:40):
Does she coach? No?

Speaker 2 (18:42):
I don't think. Also, another ladies sport, Detroit is now
a front runner for a PWHL team, which means lady
hockey could be in town too. Maybe we'll be lady
hockey town, Lady hockey town. Maybe, I mean, pretty soon
it's going to be common law where if you don't
make the playoffs for enough consecutive years, you can no

(19:02):
longer call yourself hockey town. So we, like common law,
lost the right to hockey town. Means now it goes
to like Tampa, somewhere that wins, you know, more consistently,
more recently. So, ladies and gentlemen, welcome to Tampa. We
are hockey town. But maybe we can jump on this
early and become lady hockey town.

Speaker 3 (19:21):
I like it.

Speaker 2 (19:22):
Put it right there, on the ice, Lady hockey Town.
I'm here for that. I think it's got a nice ring.

Speaker 1 (19:29):
Ladies can do stuff now, and you're gonna have to
learn how to deal.

Speaker 3 (19:32):
With it, lady.

Speaker 2 (19:32):
Wouldn't that just be the ultimate if, like one day
that the Red Wings stop using hockey Town and then
the Lady Hockey team comes in and they started calling
themselves Lady hockey Town, and.

Speaker 4 (19:41):
They ask like all their old marketing materials and they
just add lady. Yeah on top of everything, save us
some money.

Speaker 2 (19:48):
Yeah, you guys have anything left over, we just to
throw our or we're branding it for ourselves. And that, friends,
is sports. Okay. So we met Gene Simmons yesterday. It
didn't oh particularly well. We'll let you know how it
all went down. Next one O six point seven Detroit's
Wheels Josh and a Show Josh and James, which SHAGM.

(20:10):
So yesterday we were tasked with going out to Rock
and Bruce.

Speaker 3 (20:15):
Yeah, having a big ribbon hooting ceremony like grand opening.

Speaker 2 (20:19):
Yeah, and look, Rock and Bruise is a really cool place,
Like it looks nice because I was making jokes the
other day about it and I was calling it Planet
Drew Wood. Yeah, you know so, and look it's the
same concept. It's like a like a hard rock cafe
or you know, Planet Hollywood. It banks on nostalgia and
memorabilia and stuff. But dude, Rock and Bruce kicked ass.

(20:41):
Like it's a very cool looking place that's in a
great spot like downtown Royal Oak cool area. The building's
very cool. It's not just like it's something took an
old shonies or something then through a place and it's
a very cool building. Everything about it's very good. So
good for Drew, good for our new friend Gene, good for.

Speaker 3 (20:59):
All of them.

Speaker 2 (21:00):
Go down check out Rock and Bruce. Great memorabilia, cool place.
The core is phenomenal. That love that place totally. That said,
we were part of like a bunch of media people
that were sent out to you know, take pictures and interviewers.

Speaker 3 (21:15):
Trying to get some sound cliffs fo with Gene.

Speaker 2 (21:17):
Correct and this is something that Casey was super obsessed with.
He's like, he gotta go talk with Gene Simmons, and
I'm like, I get it, but like everybody's gonna have
audio talking to Gene Simmons. Yeah, but he might say
something like he's a loose cannon he is, and I'm like,
all right, fine, Casey, I'll go talk with him. And
when we got there, I knew it was gonna go
bad because the thing was kind of disorganized and we

(21:39):
were supposed to talk with Gene Simmons at twelve twenty five.
It's twelve twenty and we're like, you know, eight people
behind on this thing. Big Jim is over here telling
him about like all the births of his children or
whatever the hell he's doing. They're talking for fifteen minutes
about something. We're just standing there like, hey, we just
I just went our five He just went our five minutes.

(21:59):
I just need to talk with Jeene Simmons for five minutes.
So my boss will be like, yeah, this is great,
that's all I need. Right, So the lady walks up
to us, she goes, listen, we're only gonna we're done
doing individual interviews now, so all we can do is
get you up there with a couple other people, and
so it's gonna be like what they in the media
call like a gang bang. Basically, it's like you go

(22:20):
up there and get multiple people, you put microphones in
the face, and you go, okay, fine, We're standing next
to some kid from the Metro Times. He's FLUMNXT because
he's been there since ten.

Speaker 3 (22:30):
He's like, this is crazy. I'll been since ten am.
I'm like why Yeah.

Speaker 2 (22:34):
He's like, look, I don't get paid for this, and
it's my birthday. Can you believe that? I'm like, look,
I like you, guy, but no grown man should be
bitching about having to do things on his birthday. That's
for women and children, like, we don't do that. But anyway,
so we end up walking up there with this guy
and some lady. Jean starts talking to this one lady
because he's gene and it does not matter what she

(22:56):
looks like. She's a lady and Jean's gonna talk. So
we kind of move off to the and you're already filming.
So it's a joke. I grabbed the little microphone and
I whisper like all right, So we're waiting to talk
with Jean Simmons like we're waiting.

Speaker 4 (23:07):
Because you walk up like hey, yeah, we pounding and
then he never put his fist out. You just try
to started talking to the lady. He's like, well, yeah,
you're like, well you are, Oh yeah.

Speaker 2 (23:16):
I try to make a stupid joke because he dapts,
so I don't think he shakes hands. He DAPs, so
I put my hand up to dap him, and he
just turns away and I say, so, Gene, are we pounding?
And he turns away and I look at you and
go I asked, if we're pounding with jeans? He is,
you know, hackey stuff, And he turns around to me
while he's talking to this lady and basically goes, he oh,

(23:38):
he totally shushed me. He goes, oh, you're interrupting our
conversation with this lady here and all this, and I'm like, oh.

Speaker 3 (23:44):
He's like, do you think that we cannot hear you?

Speaker 2 (23:46):
I'm like, I don't know if he can or not. Jeane,
I mean, I don't know. I'm sorry that you can't
have a conversation with a woman five feet away from me,
and I can't say something to my guy here whatever.
So they have their conversation, and then it's on my turn.
You can actually share the story because you watched it unfold, No,
you filmed it as well.

Speaker 3 (24:04):
Well. I thought I was filming it.

Speaker 2 (24:06):
So you tell me how it unfolded, and I'll tell
you what I remember, all right, So as this is
going on, I'm filming it.

Speaker 4 (24:12):
We're in like tight quarters, so people are like trying
to scooch by trying to get around, people are grabbing
my arm. Being like two minutes, two minutes, wrap it
up in two minutes. All this stuff's going down, and
so we're just we're just waiting for our turn.

Speaker 3 (24:24):
Now you've just been shushed.

Speaker 4 (24:26):
I got My favorite part is too, like every time
like Jean would shoot you a dirty look or like
shush you or do something, you would look at the
camera and you would do this. You just shoot me
just like look like I mean, I don't taught.

Speaker 2 (24:44):
Me to do. It's not like we were at a
church doing this. We were in this loud building, like
I'm sorry that you're distracted by me whispering something to you.

Speaker 4 (24:52):
But so then he's done, the lady's done, and he
turns to go to talk to you, and you could
tell he's annoyed. I think even at one point he
steps away from you and he goes to the PR
guy and he says something along the lines of I
want to kill myself and oh they get the gun
in his mouth.

Speaker 2 (25:07):
Multiple times he made that gesture, not just to us now,
to me he did multiple times, but to other people too,
Like he'd stand there and put like the fake gun
in his mouth and like blew his fake brains out.

Speaker 4 (25:17):
I'm like, jeez, Jean, and you you up there, do
you ask him a question about the kiss? The cartoons
know the movie?

Speaker 2 (25:24):
So there's a movie called Kiss Meets the Phantom of
the Park, which is this historic, like can't be terrible movie.
But one of the biggest takeaways is they used a
black guy to stand in for Ace. So I wanted
to have a conversation about black Ace.

Speaker 3 (25:38):
Yes, ask him about that, But well.

Speaker 2 (25:40):
I started, if I recall, I started with, Hey, I
have a business idea for you. Why don't you take
a Kiss Meets the Phantom of the Park on the
road and go to movie theaters and you go with it?
And then he starts lecturing me about business about how
we need investors. I'm like, well that.

Speaker 3 (25:56):
Would be you, Jene. You would need a promoter. Sure,
let's do it. But the promoter.

Speaker 4 (26:01):
And You're like, well, you would have access to all
this stuff, like you're the guy who knows how to
make all the money, Like that would fall on you.
I don't think he liked that, because then I think
that's when he stepped away and blow my brain's out
thing or something.

Speaker 3 (26:13):
Yeah.

Speaker 4 (26:14):
But and then you ask him like a follow up question,
and then he tries to give an answer. They starts
talking about some movie. Yeah, a movie that they're producing,
deep Water or something like that. Some movie and it's
directed by some guy who directs Ready Harlan. Yeah, it
was Ready Harlan.

Speaker 2 (26:30):
So I said, oh, yeah, he directed Nightmarun on ELM
Street four, The dream Master.

Speaker 4 (26:33):
And then he's like, well, and do hard and he
starts to name him in all these other movies and
you're like, yep, yep, yep, okay, so Gene anyway, and.

Speaker 2 (26:40):
Then he gets I think he got pissed because I
cut him off on something like oh yes, yes, I
was talking. I wasn't done talking. And then he starts
lecturing me about about cutting him off. And then that's
when he gets into this weird Uh what's the word
I'm looking for here, like a weird story or a
comparison between what we're doing and getting hit by a car.
I said, sorry, Oh that's what it was. So I said, oh,

(27:02):
I'm sorry, Gane my bad.

Speaker 3 (27:03):
Sorry.

Speaker 4 (27:03):
Sorry, Sorry. He's like, sorry doesn't fix on anything. Sorry
doesn't doesn't. That means nothing. Sorry, it means nothing. If
you hit somebody with a car, do you say sorry,
sorry I hit you with the car, you know, or
do you just fix it?

Speaker 2 (27:15):
I'm like, well, I don't know how I fix hitting
somebody with a car. I think I start with saying sorry, Jane,
and you, well, Geene, what do you want me to say?
Say that I'm a god? Crap, Geane, everybody knows you're
a god. We're all here, so now what you know?

Speaker 4 (27:30):
It was just like it was the most beautiful like
depiction of a disaster I've ever witnessed. And as we're there,
I'm like, we got gold, baby, we got a show.
We got a show, baby, we got some clips. I
think goodness Casey sent us out here because he was right.
You never know what Jean's gonna say. Jeane's a wild card,
and he has just said some stuff.

Speaker 2 (27:52):
He said some stuff. I'm like, I can't wait to
go home and edit all this. So we're walking out
and you're, oh, you open up your phone and you're
starting to watch videos, and then the meltdown happens and
then I.

Speaker 4 (28:03):
See all I have is four seconds of when I
started recording and like three seconds when I turned the
camera off and switch it over to photomodes, we take
a picture. So what happened was when you were in
those tight quarters, I got bumped, so I must got
bumped and hit the stop record button and like I'm

(28:26):
just trying to like get it all in. I could
have sworn like the time was still counting, because I'm like, man,
this is gonna be like seven eight minutes.

Speaker 3 (28:33):
I'm gonna have to cut this down.

Speaker 4 (28:34):
So I'm like doing the math in my brain, like
what I'm going to have to do to like cut
this video down, and like what what's worthy of keeping
what's not worthy of keeping? Keeping in mind, I'm gonna
have to censor some of the some of the language.
Some of the language started to take a wrong turn,
so to speak, Yes, started not cursing at each other
but using curse words in conversation.

Speaker 3 (28:55):
And then it's gone, there's nothing.

Speaker 4 (28:58):
Like my stomach literally dropped, like I felt like my
stomach fell right out my buttthole.

Speaker 2 (29:03):
Like I was like, oh God, we have we had gold.

Speaker 3 (29:07):
And it's not on my phone.

Speaker 4 (29:10):
We were here all this time, and all we have
to show for it is a picture of Josh with
Jean Simmons in two shaky video clips that are only
a couple of seconds.

Speaker 2 (29:21):
And one still frame of one of the handler people
or someone that's a boss there looking at me like
I was a terrorist. Yes his video you sent me.
This woman's looking at me.

Speaker 4 (29:29):
I started recording when Gene came over to shush you,
and that's when I hit it, And that's probably why
she's like looking in like, why did that guy just
shush you know? Why did Jean just shush that guy
looking over the show?

Speaker 2 (29:38):
Why did you bother Jean? Yeah, Like I don't know.
I was just sent here to ask him questions about
Planet drew Wood, and this is what I get.

Speaker 3 (29:44):
Yeah, So.

Speaker 2 (29:47):
It was a disaster. It was The interview itself was
a disaster, which I knew would happened, because why not,
it's in a gang bang, it's in this whole thing.
It's going to be a disaster. But then we didn't
even get the disaster, which made it even more of
a disaster. Then I had salespeople from the radio station
pissed to me because allegedly I was supposed to be
there earlier than I was, even though the email didn't
specify that. So then I got Casey calling me and

(30:08):
he's like, well, there's a full on melt down here
where this is like it's death Cotton one and I'm like,
I don't know what to do, Casey. I just I
did what the email said to do. So there's some
communication issues leading up to the event. It was, I mean,
the whole thing started out.

Speaker 4 (30:22):
We were supposed to go on behalf of the Mojo Show,
which wanted they wanted us to go dress like like kiss,
like kiss makeup and stuff correct, And I wasn't gonna
do kiss.

Speaker 3 (30:33):
I was gonna do like Twisted's makeup.

Speaker 4 (30:35):
Yeah, to be funny, you guys just had to show
up with with.

Speaker 3 (30:38):
The makeup on.

Speaker 4 (30:39):
You know, I'm going to do the makeup I'm familiar with,
and so my boys and Twisted so so.

Speaker 2 (30:44):
Just definitely didn't come through. And it was a whole mess.
Just to bottom line, it was a whole damn mess.
And and Jane was being genish because at the end
of it, after the conversation he DAPs me up and I'm.

Speaker 4 (30:54):
Like, yeah, like everything was cool, like oh, good day.
And then he referenced like that we were homosexuals with
each Oh yeah he did. Yeah. He's like, so hold on,
how long have you tube been a couple? And I'm like,
I see what you're doing, Gene. I'm like, oh, he says,
actober Jeane.

Speaker 2 (31:07):
But remember when we started this story there we said
there was a guy standing next to me. Yes, and
this guy is frazzled and he's upset and like he's like,
it's my birthday and I'm wasting my time at this.
And then I'm supposed to talk with Gene Simmons and
I've been here for three hours or whatever. After he's
done talking with us, he looks over at this kid

(31:28):
from the Metro Times wearing like black horn room glass
and he goes who invited Clark Kent? And I'm like, oh,
this guy's gonna just die, like because at that point
you hear that, dude, I would just be like, you
know what, I'm not getting paid to be I'm leaving.

Speaker 3 (31:42):
I don't even know.

Speaker 2 (31:43):
But I'm like, this poor kid's gonna go postal on this.

Speaker 4 (31:45):
Like Jeene Simmons lives up to every like totally stereotype
about how he is as an interview. Yeah, like every
single picture you see of him, he just it looks
like you're standing next to the wax figure of Jean Simmons. Yeah,
it's like he just stands there, Uh, pretty emotionless on
his face except for the focal with you.

Speaker 2 (32:03):
I think he's starting to pucker up his lips.

Speaker 3 (32:04):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (32:05):
So that was our our day with Gene Simmons. Our
four minutes with Gene Simmons.

Speaker 4 (32:09):
Which is one of the favorite part though, is when
he walks away from you, does the gun blow my
brains out motion? And then walks back and then walks
right back because I continue.

Speaker 2 (32:25):
One on six point seven Detroit's Wheels Josh in the show.
We will have Weezer tickets coming up at eight twenty five.
Weezer obviously huge in the nineties. We talked about the
nineties yesterday a little bit. What got us into the
discussion about the music of the nineties, I don't remember. Well,
it was about uh, oh, who am I thinking of
of Third Eye Blind?

Speaker 3 (32:45):
Oh?

Speaker 2 (32:45):
Yeah, my Tom's the inniverstry of that album. So today
is Brian Setzer's birthday. Now, Brian sets are probably more
known for the Stray Cats, of course, but in the
nineties there was this weird revival of like swing and
rockabilly music. The nineties was wild because you had this
revival in the late nineties of swing and rockabilly, so
you got jump, jive and whale and this song was everywhere.

Speaker 3 (33:08):
It was.

Speaker 2 (33:09):
It was like on gap commercials. It was everywhere, and
you're like, wow, I looked this up just a second ago.
This album that this was on sold two million copies.

Speaker 6 (33:19):
Wow.

Speaker 2 (33:19):
I think this sold more copies than any of the
Straight Cats stuff. And of course Straight Cats he was
in that, and Straight Cat Strut and Rock This Town
and all that. But this was a weird era because
you had this and then you had like the Ska
resurgence and this way, at least for me, you had Sky,
you had resurgence of rockabilly because you had this, you

(33:42):
kind of if you want to count mambo number five
in there to Lou Bay, I remember lou Baby one,
two three five, everybody in the conzot come on land
Rad to the around the Corner. The boys said that
once Jan and Jude butter it down wom So there
was that, and then you have the Cherry Pop and Daddies,

(34:02):
which Zoot suit Ryotings sounds a lot like this, but
this was actually more swingy, like jump driving Wheel is
almost kind of rockabilly because that's always been the sound
of Brian Setzer. But then this is like just full
on like swing. You turn on an all radio station,
I'm like a channels, it's like, hey, ninety eight X,

(34:26):
there's Zuit suit ryot. It just had a moment, and
it's what the nineties people talking about how weird the
eighties were. The nineties had like ten different genres of
music that were huge, and they all had big, huge moments,
and then yeah, the ska would fall into that, the
rockabilly revival would the swing did gru I mean, look,

(34:49):
if you want to be real, grunge was basically only
like three or four years and then grunge died off.
I mean it stayed the test of time more than
you have the cherry pop and daddies, but still, and
then you had the ska stuff. So that would be
like real big fish yep, And who's the other one,
who's the other big ska one Bosses, the Mighty Mighty

(35:11):
boss Tones.

Speaker 4 (35:12):
Yeah, if you're want to dig deep less than Jay, Yeah,
who else?

Speaker 3 (35:18):
I was gonna do at that point in point.

Speaker 2 (35:20):
And this was all huge. Yeah, it crossed over multiple genres.
If you were watching a teen movie in the nineties,
you'd either hear like the Mighty.

Speaker 4 (35:29):
Mighty Boss Yep, you know they have one dude on
stage of just dances at the Boss tone.

Speaker 3 (35:37):
Oh, I say it, you just get something in Skiing Boy.

Speaker 2 (35:41):
And then Ska I mean you had ska reggae everybody's
There seemed to be a ton of different reggae versions
of songs too. There seems like.

Speaker 4 (35:49):
That time people were more open to different genres and
types of.

Speaker 2 (35:54):
Sure, Like imagine you turn on Channel ninety five today
and here's someone doing like a reggae song. Yeah, they
never had, but then you had, like going back to
our discussion about Peter Frampton earlier today, Big Mountain had
the baby I Love Your Way, which to me is
my favorite version of Baby I Love Your Way, but

(36:15):
it was it was like the reggae version of Yeah.
And then you have like you Be forty, who sounded
very raygaeish as well.

Speaker 3 (36:22):
And they were doing for red Wine.

Speaker 2 (36:24):
Yeah, they did Red red Wine. They also did I
Can't Help Falling in Love with You, The Elda song
that was for a movie soundtrack there, which was a
horned out movie where one of the Baldwin brothers was
banging Susan Sarah. Not Susan Sarandon. He should have, but
Sharon Stone, look that I wouldn't kick either one of
them out of bed in nineteen ninety four, not one
of them, even Billy Baldwin. You didn't be there too.

(36:47):
Bring them all over. It's nineteen ninety four. Let's get nuts.

Speaker 4 (36:50):
Billy is not the one that's in the biodome, right,
that's that's Stephen.

Speaker 2 (36:53):
I think this was all Stephen Baldwin. I don't think
it was Billy Baldwin. They may not even be a
Billy Baldwin. I think there's a will one of them's dead.
I think was not shot by Alec. By the way,
this wasn't a movie too.

Speaker 3 (37:11):
What movie was this?

Speaker 2 (37:12):
Sad?

Speaker 3 (37:13):
This rules?

Speaker 2 (37:14):
By the way, if you if you said, Josh, you
can listen to one version of Baby I Love Your
Way for the rest of your life, which one would
it be? I listened to the Big Mountain version of it.

Speaker 3 (37:24):
This was in reality bite.

Speaker 2 (37:25):
That's it, And then you want to talk about nuts.
So reality bites number one song Lisa Lobe. Oh, that's
the stay, it's the yeah, dude. The nineties were nuts,
Like you didn't know what you were gonna get now,
like it's pretty cut and dry, you know the kind
of music you're gonna get, Like here's Sabrina Carpenter being
super horny or here's Mumble Rap. You can turn on

(37:49):
the radio in nineteen ninety five and it's like, oh,
look there's Doctor Dre. Look there's Michael Bolton. Look there's
Elton Sean. Look there's the Mighty Mighty Boss Tones. Look
there's Lisa Lobe. You did not no. Plus.

Speaker 4 (38:01):
I think that like this reason is why some of
those stations like Dug FM, will we Yeah found some success.

Speaker 2 (38:08):
Totally because it was just what was like you couldn't
define what a hit was because there were thousands of
different times. Dude, you turn on the radio ninety five,
ninety two, ninety three, Phil Collins was still making it
really and there were songs with messages like another Day
in Paradise into you know, the new kids on the block.

Speaker 3 (38:26):
And you're like the nineties.

Speaker 2 (38:28):
The nineties were bonkers musically, and then you'd have the
era of like harder rock, so like new metal. So
you turn on the radio and you're like, well that
was Britney Spears and this is kid rock and this
is corn and you're like, what is going on? Here's
Limbiscuit with faith, but you don't get that anymore. It's
just very very generic stuff. But boy, what an era

(38:49):
that was.

Speaker 4 (38:49):
All.

Speaker 2 (38:50):
We bring that up today because today is Brian Setzer's birthday.
He have jumped jiving and whaling.

Speaker 4 (38:56):
I jump driving and whaling today, But Mojo, grow a
pair of balls, pal and play jump jive and whale
after Sabrina Carpenter taste, go ahead.

Speaker 2 (39:06):
And do that. And then you look at the soundtracks
from the nineties and they were just a mixture of
music from different eras. Like if you were to watch Clueless,
right you brought up the soundtrack and the songs that
were in the movie Clueless, you would have David Bowie,
but you'd also have No Doubt and radio Head and Coolio.
We're rolling with the Omies, the Mighty Mighty boss Tones, Coolio,

(39:30):
the Cranberries, like you would just get this wild mixture
that counting crows.

Speaker 4 (39:35):
I mean back in the day, like back in then,
I'd say, back in the day. But like in the nineties,
like you would seek out movie soundtracks so.

Speaker 2 (39:40):
Totally, totally, and hits would come off of those, like
you guys gotta get the Dangerous Mind soundtrack. Gangs just
paradises on here. These are just things. And I'm not
trying to be old man yells at cloud here, and
I'm not trying to be you know, the old dude here,
but wrong button there. We got out over the nineties.
I'm not trying to be an old man yells at cloud.

(40:03):
But you know, the kids say, I'll never fully know
what a real movie soundtrack was like when you'd buy
it and it'd be only really one hit on it,
but you buy unless it was like a Footloose or
something that had like five the eighties that was the
era of like five hit songs from one soundtrack, Dirty Dancing, Footloose,
Top Gun, you know. Or then you get like the

(40:23):
Breakfast Club that had a hit, or Pretty in Paint
it might have two or three. Batman had a hit,
But like in the nineties, you'd get like one, you'd
get a soundtrack and like you you'd get like one
big hit off of an album and you'd buy the
whole damn thing because of that, like in Dangerous Minds
or in Reality Bite Robin Thieves. The Robin Hood soundtrack

(40:44):
sold because of that gigantic song. You know, the kids
don't know that.

Speaker 4 (40:49):
And then some of those songs would be exclusive just
to the soundtrack, so they wouldn't get put on any album, correct, and.

Speaker 2 (40:54):
So you'd have to buy a soundtrack. Ah, those in
the day alone, I know, and that's what you end
up with, or like The Bodyguard. But then The Bodyguard
was a good example because The Bodyguard a lot of
the music was made for that movie because it starred
Whitney Houston, so that probably had three or four on him.

(41:14):
Of course, the seventies you had Saturday Night Fever, which
is like the biggest soundtrack album of all time, or
Titanic where you had the Celine Dion, so he's obviously
a big one too. But Lion King Ian King was
a nineties one, dude. Elton John was putting hit songs
on the radio that were probably playing right before Coolio.
That was the nineties. Man, you're not gonna get that.

(41:37):
It just doesn't exist anymore, dude. All right, we have
a story about a warehouse fire. This excites you. You're like
a pyro. You're like like Beavis. Right now, so this
warehouse is on fire. We have the video of the
guy who set the blaze and as it was so
wild to me. This guy, he's like the joker. Yeah,
like he's like the Heath Ledger joker. We'll do that

(41:59):
and Sports up on wheels.

Speaker 1 (42:01):
This is the Josh Ennis Show on one WHO six
point seven.

Speaker 2 (42:05):
Double LLZ Detroit Wheels, The Josh Innis Show Sports. Did
I get a text here? About nineties music? There was
a discussion we were having a little while ago. I'm
talking about soundtracks. The Pretty Woman's soundtrack was a banger,
this one says now. The Pretty Woman's soundtrack had two
songs that were all time bomps if you will. Of course,

(42:30):
there was a song called King of Wishful Thinking by
Go West, which is just, I mean, all time killer jam.
A man's out there trolling for illegal snatch on the
streets of Beverly Hills, and what do you hear this?

(42:50):
A man's out there, he's like, you know what, I'm
here to look for ladies, Ladies of the night.

Speaker 3 (42:55):
That's a good tune.

Speaker 2 (42:59):
Ha, don't need to fall at your feet just cause
you cut me to the bone. By the way, the
Tigers lost yesterday, and I don't miss the way that
you can't see we were never calmed in stough four
nine on the year. If I don't listen to the
top of the town. But hey, the Red Wings one.

(43:21):
Maybe I can fool myself this. Yeah, I know you,
I know will audible one too. My shit's not singing,
and I'll tell myself I'm over you because I'm the king.
I wish for thinking boy, that's a jam. And then

(43:44):
the other song from The Pretty Woman's soundtrack It Was
Really Good, was a song by rock Set called it
must have been Love. They had at It's Oh No,
rock Set had like five or six jams and then
disappeared off the face of the ear. But man, they rocked.
Must have been love. By the way, the Pistons play tonight,

(44:08):
but it's over now at Charlotte seven o'clock, the game
means absolutely nothing. Lay you whisper on that pillow, lady,
Basketball's coming to town. Leave the winter.

Speaker 3 (44:21):
You know what the team name is gonna be on.

Speaker 2 (44:23):
The Great Nope, don't care, awake lonely Hegler's call them
the New Shock, the New Shot, the New Shock, and
we're gonna get Lady Hockey touch me. Now, I close
my eyes and dream away. Tigers played the Miami Marlins tonight.

(44:48):
It must have been love, but it's over now. It
must have been good, but I lost it somehow. Maybe
I should work for w N. I see, let's get
Teresa in here.

Speaker 3 (45:02):
Give her a call.

Speaker 2 (45:03):
Teresa. I think it's time that I just acknowledged what
I really am. I'm someone who should be playing rock
set on the radio. I thought you were gonna play
the I thought I was gay? Drop no that too.
Probably it's not wrong. Well, I mean, look, just ask
Gene Simmons about us.

Speaker 3 (45:20):
He oh yeah, how long you like?

Speaker 2 (45:24):
Sorry, Jean, I'm sorry, Geez, Sorry Jean? That was gay?
What was that was? Thank you man? One morning? Better
late than never? That that I haven't thank yet? Led
me and I love.

Speaker 4 (45:41):
Rock set though, and then I'll move on. But now
I'm gonna rock set. Yeah, I drop some rock set
in analog on its all right? Well, let's see rock set.
I had a song called the Look, which was a
very good song. They also had a song called what
was their other slow song? There was must have been love.
What was the other really good rock set love song. Oh,

(46:02):
I listened to your heart. Listen to your heart. It's
a really good song.

Speaker 2 (46:05):
Fading Like a Flower was a rock sett song, I believe.
And then what was the It wasn't called fading it
was it called fading like a Flower. That was the
lyric fa Like a Flower, Okay. And then there was
one other one that I'm missing here. There was a
joy Ride was another rock set song. So here's the
story about Roxette. Roxette put out all these bangers and
had this album that was doing well whatever, but they

(46:28):
waited too long to tour and then by the time
they toured, nobody on tickets and they didn't and they
didn't go and then the band just died. Very fascinating
story about rock set because they have like five or
six like top five pop pits, you know, And I'm
aware that that's why you tune into this show for
strong knowledge about Roxette. Now you can tell your friends

(46:48):
about that at the water cooler today. But anyway, so
here's what we got. We have got a warehouse fire,
a giant blaze that has James all sorts of excited.
I've never seen somebody more excited about fire.

Speaker 3 (47:01):
Other than Beavis.

Speaker 4 (47:02):
Well, I mean, the guy that's at the Blaze kind
of lived my dream.

Speaker 2 (47:07):
Now I'm worried. But anyway, I don't like to accept
that much. James, I'm sorry. Don't blame rock Set anyway,
we have got the food fighters.

Speaker 3 (47:16):
Now.

Speaker 2 (47:16):
By the way, apparently Dave Grohl is now into barbecuing.
Oh yeah, I was reading some story about Dave Grohl
and it's like, well, ever since the whole scandal broke,
he's found comfort in learning how to barbecue and going
to therapy. So he's learned how to hinderize a different meat.
Oh wakah, he's doing something with a different kind of pork.
He's porking something. He still loves a hot saucage. Ay ight,

(47:40):
Detroit's wheels. So I got a text here. It says
you are tone deaf. Please stop singing over the tracks
and stop talking. You suck. Well thanks geez. All right,
Well then if that's the case, Okay, I suck. That's fine,

Uh, it's it's all for the illusion, James, there is
no boombox. Thanks for ruining the illusion. Now they know
I'm a liar. But text the word Josh. I'll leave
it up to a vocus. You notice I questioned the boombox.

people that don't seem to like it. Or I can

(49:51):
sit over in the corner and listen to the Robin Hood.

Speaker 3 (49:53):
Prince of Thief soundtray. We got that one too.

Speaker 2 (49:55):
Yeah, that one's on CD compact disc.

is give, give given. All you do is take you
just take you take my tickets, you meet those tickets.

(50:45):
You mostly just take my tickets. That's all you want
from us. Let's be honest. This is transactional. I just
want your tickets and your sex toys. That's it. That's
all we are to you. Set If bush Man is
ticket daddy, we're dildo daddy. That's all I am. I'm
pocketing vagina. That's all I am to you. Just some
stupid bet, Is that all I am? A text the

(51:05):
word Josh and your message to five one eight eight one.
If you want me to shut up, I'll shut up.
The votes are coming in right now. It's mostly hey,
keep talking about whatever. Look, if you want me to
shut up and go away, I'll go away. I'm sure
there's some other song we can play instead of me talking.
That's fine, But anyway. Also, it's wild to me that
people understand in the middle of Tom Petty why I
need good.

Speaker 1 (51:25):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (51:26):
I don't know if that's good or bad, but we
have We have Weezer tickets if you want them, well,
I mean, obviously there's ten people already on hold, so
they've beat you to it.

Speaker 3 (51:36):
It's a Josh in.

Speaker 1 (51:37):
A show on one Who's six point steven double.

Speaker 2 (51:40):
Llz, Detroit's Wheels, Detroit's Wheels. For the most part, all
the text messages are like, hey, don't shut up, so
I won't thank you guys. There might be one or
two for every like one for every like ten that
we've gotten so far. And I'm being serious about that.
I'm not just trying me happy.

Speaker 4 (51:58):
He come here and just get up early in the
morning and stay across from you and listen to music.

Speaker 2 (52:04):
Yeah, unless it's rock sad, that's fun. But here's what
I imagine the conversations are like with people, like on Facebook,
Like every now and then you'll see people going back
and forth about how they dislike us. Not as much anymore.
There was that one stretch where it was happening a lot,
but then like it didn't happen as much anymore, mostly
because I don't post things on the station Facebook page.
It's just our little group of people that like us,

(52:24):
so you don't see a lot of negative But I
would imagine like this is like generally speaking to people
who discover they dislike us. At the same time, I
hate everything too, really because they're always saying bad words
and always in that nasty.

Speaker 7 (52:41):
Stuff exactly, a lot of foul languages, which I should.

Speaker 2 (52:45):
All have a lot common with you. That's it.

Speaker 4 (52:50):
I feel like that is one accurate and I think
that the people that are bad mouthingas m stuff for
from maybe the same issues that those two people.

Speaker 2 (52:59):
They may but there you go.

Speaker 3 (53:03):
All right.

Speaker 2 (53:03):
So here's what I have to do, though, I have
to play songs. I want to get to the stuff
about the fire. Come on, man, I know, I gotta
do it.

Speaker 1 (53:08):
Five.

Speaker 2 (53:08):
The problem I'm running into is I have to get
a certain number of songs in and they're long and like,
so I just need to shut up. I gotta get
a song in here. But I swear we're going to
get to this. It's a warehouse fire story on the way.
It's coming up after stained speaking of TP, yes, that's
it's certainly stained. Yes, all the foul languages, alright, so

(53:33):
we will get to that. We will get to that
coming up after it's been a while. Alright, Detroit, it's wheels.
So let's do the news story on this first. There
was a big fire fire fire in California at a
warehouse that has mostly like toilet paper and stuff like
toilet paper and Kleenex and of those kind of paper goods.

(53:55):
So this is the news story to give you a
little bit of the deats and news.

Speaker 7 (54:00):
Now an update within the past hour on that massive
warehouse fire in Ontario.

Speaker 2 (54:05):
A person has.

Speaker 7 (54:05):
Been arrested suspected of arson and is being held without bail.
The warehouse, the size of eleven city blocks, is a
Kimberly Clark distribution center filled with paper products from familiar
brands like Kleenext to Huggies diapers.

Speaker 2 (54:19):
The fire started. Generally speaking, I just see Huggies diapers
filled with poopy on the streets because people are monsters
that just throw their kids poopy diapers out on the street. Like,
I don't know if you notice this.

Speaker 4 (54:30):
I know that you have a kid, and you have
multiple kids, and I can say I've never thrown a
dirty diaper on the street.

Speaker 2 (54:34):
Yeah, I don't think you would. Like being Colton and
Tom's dad, you would never do such a thing.

Speaker 3 (54:39):
But a little coltman Tom there.

Speaker 2 (54:44):
But like I see this pretty frequently, Like I'll be
walking around or you'll be in the parking lot of
the walmart or something, and you'll just see dirty diapers.
I'm like, if you make the choice to change your
kids diaper in the car, then keep the poopy diaper
in the car you get just throw the diaper out.

Speaker 3 (54:57):
Throw the way at home in front.

Speaker 2 (54:58):
They do it everywhere. It's everywhere, And like the other day,
I'm walking Ross and he starts sniffing something like Ross,
what are you doing? You know, I'm mommy, Murst and whatever.
I'm listening to him my headphones, rock set probably or Laura,
one of the two, and I'm listening and I'm like, bro,
what are we doing here? Stop sniffing that. That's a
dirty diaper, and why is this just out on the street.
If you have kids, you have responsibilities. Just because you

(55:20):
had a kid doesn't give you the right to litter
with poop.

Speaker 3 (55:22):
Lazy parents.

Speaker 7 (55:24):
Early this morning, Ontario police say the person they arrested
faces multiple arson charges.

Speaker 2 (55:29):
Now now that you know that the person faces multiple
arson charges, and they say, we think we have a
suspect here. Here's what I'm gonna do for you. I'm
gonna play your rock and roll song and when we
come back, we're gonna meet this gentleman who is not
a suspect at this point, like he's the guy that
did it.

Speaker 4 (55:49):
And also they say they don't know what the motive is,
but I think we're gonna hear the motive.

Speaker 2 (55:53):
No, you'll know the motive, all right, So we will
play this weird jokersh audio for you after we play
for you a band called r EM and a song
called the One I Love. That's what I thought would happened,
Button stuck. Everything's fine, though I was trying to make
it not happen, but it did. All right, this is

(56:15):
the One I Love? So we'll get you the back
end of this story coming up on Wheels on six
point seven Detroit's Wheels Josh and His show, Josh and James,
What's Up friends? All right, So, as you know, there
was a big warehouse fire in Ontario, California, and they say, oh,
we have a suspect and we need a motive. Okay, well,

(56:36):
we have the suspect and we have the motive.

Speaker 4 (56:39):
This is nobody contact the police so we can let
them know this information. Did this person post this on
what it was? This on Instagram? TikTok was on TikTok,
I believe, So.

Speaker 2 (56:48):
It looks like somebody recorded it off of somebody's Instagram story. Okay,
So this is someone's Instagram story who I guess works
in this building, Yes, and is clearly responsible for this fire,
because he proceeds to set fire to toilet paper and
other paper products.

Speaker 3 (57:02):
Maybe it's light bit disgruntled.

Speaker 5 (57:05):
You know, if they're not going to pay us enough
to live or afford to live, always pass enough not
to do this.

Speaker 2 (57:12):
It's a nice lighted on fire. Enough this sky. A
man's like, I'm aware we have a fire in the web.
It's like, all right, ten to four on that pal
He's probably where's the location of the fire so I
can go start another one? Where's the location of the fire?
Come back? It's in the warehouse? Uh yeah, I know
I'm setting fire. Paid us enough to live, you know, we.

Speaker 5 (57:39):
May not get paid enough to live, but these bitches
aren't cheap.

Speaker 6 (57:44):
All you had to do was pay us enough to live.
All you had to do was pay us enough to live.

Speaker 4 (57:50):
And every time you hear him say that too, all
you had to do was to another palette of piet
paper out.

Speaker 2 (57:54):
It goes you know anything fory yep, just lights it
all on fire. That's how episodes of Unsolved Mysteries used
to start. You get the unsolved Mysteries theme, and then
you'd get like Robert Stack would be like on Unsolved Mysteries,
you'd get like that he'd explain, like in Ontario, California,
man sets fire to a warehouse today on Unsolved Mysteries. Uh,

(58:18):
And then then you'd get that, and then it would
be creepy, and then I'd be scared because my grandma
would make fun of me for being scared of Unsolved Mystery.
He was terrifying, terrifying. I don't know why, but it
was terrifying. And then for some reason, the cheesy reenactments
were also petrifying. You're like, this shouldn't be scary. It's
a cheesy reenactment of a guy getting abducted by aliens.

(58:39):
But then he wouldn't be like I'm petrified. If it's scared,
I couldn't sleep and now you watch it now and
I'm still petrified. I'll be honest with you as an adult.
If I'm laying in bed Jilly's asleep and I turn
on like an Unsolved Mysteries because I'm feeling, you know, bold,
I'm afraid to even put my feet down on the
bed to take a leak, like I I will not

(59:00):
get out of bed. I would just lay there and
be petrified because I am petrified of this video on
Unsolved Mysteries of some guy getting abducted by aliens or
having a car fall on him and he sees Jesus.
Or there's like a guy from a civil war, like
a Civil War captain that's like standing at the stairs
even though it's like nineteen eighty two and you're like,
how did you get here? General Custer? Because he's a

(59:22):
ghost and that's frightening. But that's a lot of those
videos that you would see ARSON like they'd always have
like the transition to the different stories, and it would
say like ghost encounter or whatever you have to give
you like a category of falls into and this would
be like Arson Unsolved Arsen, and then that's what you
would get. And then it would be you hear that
audio of that wacko like should have paid us what

(59:43):
we have and wanted, should have paid us a livable
ways to live? Yeah, And then then they talked random
people and then.

Speaker 5 (59:50):
You know, if you're not going to pay us enough
to live or afford to live, I always pass.

Speaker 2 (59:55):
Enough not to be this set and fire to toilet paper.

Speaker 3 (01:00:03):
Should have paid us enough to live.

Speaker 5 (01:00:05):
You know, we may not get paid enough to live,
but these bitches don't shoot.

Speaker 6 (01:00:13):
All you had to do was pay us enough to live.
All you had to do was pay us enough.

Speaker 2 (01:00:18):
And then they He pulls up the camera and there's
just fire.

Speaker 4 (01:00:23):
Every wear shot is just all these palettes and stacks
of toilet paper just all on fire.

Speaker 2 (01:00:29):
Like it's very cinematic in a way. Well, that wouldn't
have happened to Sharman, now, would it. The potty bears
would have not. That's tough for toilet papers. Mister Whipple
paid very well, yeah, exactly. Casey over here is like,
what is this? You know, because he didn't have toilet
paper that day? That's maybe I.

Speaker 4 (01:00:48):
Know that was a deep We better watch out because
all this toilet papers up in smoke.

Speaker 2 (01:00:52):
Now there might be a toilet paper shortage. Case He's like, dicks, Yeah,
some people, how dare you.

Speaker 3 (01:01:00):
Easy to become like the tilet paper or the TP avenger.

Speaker 4 (01:01:02):
Now he's gonna go after this guy, his arch nemesis,
whatever his name is. In the video that I saw,
he was escorted out of the warehouse wearing a sleeveless
shirt that says lost sleeves.

Speaker 2 (01:01:15):
That's Lost sleep Man versus the Tpe Avenger. He tried
to get the cops to just let him make one
phone call the w ll Z for Weezer tickets. He
is the Josh Hennis Show. One of six point seven
w ll Z Detroit Wheels. One of six point seven
Detroit Wheels Josh Ennis Show. You know, Jack White is

(01:01:37):
going to be playing Pineknob. I was surprised to hear
that he's never played pinepp Yeah.

Speaker 3 (01:01:41):
I think he's always.

Speaker 4 (01:01:43):
Tried to bring his shows to like non corporate venue
but aren't all venues corporate backyard again in some way,
But like he'd always performed like the Basonic I think
it is his mom worked there, got some ties to that,
or he'd uh, you know, he performed at other small
or in the venues that could probably use a bit

(01:02:03):
more traffic than like per se.

Speaker 2 (01:02:07):
Well, he's playing pine Knob now for the first time,
So if you want to see him, go see him.
To me, Jack White's just the hipster kid rock anyways,
he's hipster kid rock. I mean he is.

Speaker 4 (01:02:18):
He's from the area. They both mood in Nashville. They
both seem to hate the local area now yeah, Oh,
do you think Jack White hates the area? I think
so he gives off that vibe to you, because if
he loved it so much, why did you move away?

Speaker 2 (01:02:30):
Well, I think it is possible to love an area
but also want to live somewhere else. I mean, I
can see that, I get it, I understand. But who
stays around anyway? Like, does he have a place here?
Does he still have a place? I think I'm not sure.
Does Kid Rock still have a place? I think he does.
Ted NuGen does, But Ted NuGen has a play but

(01:02:50):
he likes to hunt and neal fish and all that.
But I think Bob Seger still has a place in Michigan.
I'm sure he does. But like a lot of these
people live. Look, let's be honest about Detroit. If we're
being completely honest, for about eight months out of the year,
not a pleasant place to live.

Speaker 3 (01:03:07):
That's true.

Speaker 2 (01:03:08):
It's a tough it's a tough hole. That's why there's
tough people. That's who we get all our grit from.

Speaker 3 (01:03:12):
Is well eight months.

Speaker 2 (01:03:13):
Look, you make jokes, and a lot of times people
love to do that kind of stuff, Like then it
becomes kind of annoying.

Speaker 3 (01:03:18):
I guess times make tough people.

Speaker 2 (01:03:20):
But you know, one hundred bad days make a hundred
great stories or whatever that twenty one pilot song was
or whatever.

Speaker 4 (01:03:27):
Right, just like our one bad day, one.

Speaker 2 (01:03:32):
Great story, Well try eight months of bad days. You
get a bunch of great stories, I'm sure. And they're
all cold and miserable and rainy and fake spring. We've
had eight fake springs already, So I'm not gonna show.
I'm not gonna judge Jack White if he wants to
live in Nashville. I'm not gonna do that. I lived
in Nashville. I didn't like care for it. But if
Jack White wants to live in Nashville or La or wherever,

(01:03:54):
that's just I'm not gonna judge people if they want
to live somewhere where it's not you know, you know,
one day you walk outside and it's, hey, it's you know,
a nice sunny seventy degrees, like on opening day, which
was the best day ever. And then the next day
there's snow, there's like, you know, flurries. I'm like, I
can understand that. I get it. So, but he's playing Pineknob.
So if you want to see Jack White at Pineob, or.

Speaker 4 (01:04:14):
That is probably a pretty good chance that people can
actually get in and see him, because usually he plays
places so small.

Speaker 2 (01:04:19):
It's sure hard to get the tickets. Just search hipster
kid rock on Ticketmaster, I think, and you'll fly according
to James, all right, and speaking of it's the white
stripes for whom the bell tolls. It's Metallica coming up
at twelve twenty five eleven other chance to win Wheezer Dads.
Laura will have those for you, so that'll be good.

(01:04:40):
And also so let's do this on the other side.
So there was one other piece of that Gene Simmons
story that we had just forgotten about. You brought it
to my attention. I'm like, you know what, that probably
was the best line of the day from Jean, who
loved us very much. We're best friends now, so we'll
have that coming up for you.

Speaker 1 (01:04:57):
On wheels, Josh one of six points Evan w LZ
Detroit's Wheels.

Speaker 2 (01:05:03):
Detroit's Wheels. That is lit. I'm Josh, She's James Josh
Ennis Show. Hello. So we were out at the New
Rock and Bruce over in Royal Oak. Lovely place. Killer.
I mean, it's really cool, Like I made jokes about
it a couple of weeks ago, like, hey, it's planet
Drew Wood, and like, look, I didn't even see Drew.
I think he was there obviously, but I didn't run
into Drew. We ran into Big Gym and Big Doug Podell.

(01:05:27):
I think Drew was on the other side of the
room that we were in. I saw him. Oh, I
don't have a relationship with him enough to word I
would go over and say Hi, it's Oh. I would
have not I'm not trying to brag here, but I've
been to a ballgame with Drew once, so like, talk
to him. I didn't see him. I didn't. I didn't
see him. I know he was there because I've seen
pictures of him, and like our salespeople.

Speaker 3 (01:05:46):
I remember saying to me in the halls of the
former employer.

Speaker 2 (01:05:49):
But I mean, obviously your situation is a little different
than it was a bit of an awkward I am
a non threat. You were part of a show that
you know, took them all off the air, So I
can understand where I seriously doubt he Harbor's and he resentment.
So I think after ten years or plus or whatever,
I don't know that he even cares about. It was
like who are you?

Speaker 4 (01:06:08):
Like, oh, hey, you know, and I explained who I am,
and you got to get in the awkward and but.

Speaker 2 (01:06:12):
That was when? When when did you run into Drew?
Relative to win? You guys took over on so after
so we took over for their program.

Speaker 4 (01:06:21):
Yeah, and then he took over the afternoon sports.

Speaker 2 (01:06:26):
But when so I.

Speaker 4 (01:06:27):
Would encounter him like I would be lead, So how
long he and then getting whacked on the morning show?

Speaker 2 (01:06:32):
Did you run into immediately after they brought him? That
that'd be awkward, That'd be an awkward thing. Now I
even had an awkward encounter with this giant podcast that
probably makes sick Bank, Like, yeah, at this point, he's
doing fine, and he's talking about all the stuff he
wants to talk about and working for dweebs that run
radio stations. Drew's fine. So but I didn't see him
or I would have said hello, because I like Drew
a lot, and he's a good time and he loves

(01:06:52):
to talk about radio. I asked like Drew, like, I
had a phone call with Drew once an hour. I
was on the phone, I'm walking my dog and I'm
talking with Drew about radio. On the coolest dude. And
then we went to a ballgame, Me and Tony Travado
went to a game with him up in his like
club seats or what awesome dude. All that to say
Rock and Bruce cool vibes. I think he's either he's

(01:07:13):
an investor in it, right, He's evolved show, so it's
obviously a big deal for him if he wants it
to be successful. He's also got you know, funny money
that he can just throw things if I had to guess.

Speaker 3 (01:07:24):
So.

Speaker 2 (01:07:24):
But anyway, so we're there, we meet Gene Simmons. We're
supposed to interview him. We actually do for like two
or three minutes. It's awkward. It's weird. He's basically calling
you and I gay and saying all this stuff, and
like it's fine. Like, like I think a lot of
it was tongue in cheek, Like it was awkward, but
I think he's genuinely annoyed. But I think he plays
a character that's kind of curmudgety in that way. And

(01:07:46):
I'm fine with it. Like I'm fine. I wasn't offended.
The lady reporter. He's like a sweetheart to her. Yeah,
and then he's like a real dumping on us, calls
the kid from the Metro Times, Clark Kent, you know,
the whole thing. So anyway, but there was another moment
that I'd forget gotten about, which may have been the
best line because he makes these analogies, Like one of
the analogies he made about us was about the if

(01:08:06):
there's a car crash or whatever, you don't say sorry
when you caused a car crash, you just fix it.
I'm like, okay, Jeane Simmons whatever. But the other line
was something and I said, I forgot why. I said, well,
you're gonna remember us, won't you, Jean or whatever? Uh
you know he said, he says something.

Speaker 8 (01:08:23):
He's like, you're on a trade and you drive, you
ride past some trees, you see the trees, and you
see a tree, but do you remember that tree? And
you go, well, Gene, you know, obviously you're gonna remember
an a.

Speaker 2 (01:08:36):
Hole from Royal Local who kept apologizing.

Speaker 4 (01:08:38):
And he goes not likely, just like he's just like
like he he loves the josh Ina Show and it
just it's so he loves the way to seeping through
his yes.

Speaker 2 (01:08:52):
But then what was funny is afterwards, because he's you
know he's a dapper because as I mentioned earlier, like
when I tried to talk to him, initially, I was like,
but not everybody calls it dapping. Some people say give
me a give to me or a physics bum or whatever.
But like you know, I was like, sorry, I'm sorry.
I tried to sorry, he doesn't pound. And then I
joked like, oh Jeans, I said pound to Jean simonth
he pounds, and so you know he was basically that

(01:09:17):
set the tone. And now I recall he goes, you know,
you don't remember the trees. I'm like, but you'll remember this.
A holy is not like that, like we have no
video of this, because.

Speaker 4 (01:09:31):
That's what that's what you say to all the girls
like that, but said this time it's true.
