you know, you got the commentssection and well and interact with at certain
points, we're gonna call for something. Okay, what did the fans think
of our segment that we picked?Like tonight we got David Coverdale on from
White Snakes and Oh my God.So one of the topic is like,

(02:09):
we're doing the top six David Coverdalealbums that he sang on because he's with

What did the fans think of willpop up some of their comments too.
Did you did you? Did youstop by David Coverdale's Twitter account in
preparation for this interview? No?Why he posts like your like your aunt.

(02:30):
It's brutal. He post like oldLady Cat means I love David,

like it's like it's like wine o'clock, you know what I mean?
I know, right, Yeah,that's that's that's stupid. That that sign

(02:51):
is the bane of my existence.Well, look somewhere, I'm so glad
you appreciate this. Hey, Ifeel like Uh, when someone says that
raw, it's also like it's gotit. It's the same thing as someone
say, hey, uh, thatpicture is there's someone nude in that picture,
but they've got but they're not naked, you know what I mean?
Like that rocks doesn't carry the weight. So what are some of the criteria,

(03:14):
Like, if I want that nude, I'm gonna expect to see naked
if I want some of the rocks, what am I looking for? Well?
Looked, I mean, we weretrying to figure out a name,
and then we'd look. We comeup with a name, and then we
looked, and there's a million mentalshow rock shows, this rock this amplified,
which it took us like three weeksto get a name that wasn't taken

(03:35):
that we could trademark. So that'swhat we had to settle. Lot we
did. Weldn't necessarily like that name. We're like, all right, it
pretty much explains that it's a rockshow. We're talking about rock music.
Second day in a row. Quinn, you've insulted our guests. It's not
what I meant insulted. I believeme. I'm not crazy about it either.
But we were limited. We hada bunch of different options, and
every time we looked it up.We had a trademark guy go out a
lawyer and he's like, melt thatsteak and that steak and you'll get suit.

Leppard on they're releasing a new album, Reimagine Stuff that the Philharmonic somebody famous

this a money grab? Ef PhilColin had to like he just on his
heels from the rest of the him. He was fine, you can't ask

(04:20):
an artist if it's a money grab, that's an insult. Right. Let's
think if he's gonna come on thisshow a thousand times, we're gonna ask
him. We're gonna ask plus amega guy. Don't you don't think it
was that bad. I'm just sensinghim. I guess well because and he
probably just said that, let's Imanage just something a little side project we
