iHeartRadio app, Rob. Not sure why. It's free, doesn't cost anything,
just your time, and it works in your effort and
occasionally it's operating properly. Nevertheless, the after hours line is
two one six nine eighty six eighty nine three for
that boy. There are a lot of white people downtown
(03:00):
last night, a lot. And you know what, I didn't
put two and two together. When you were here with
your wife and your girls. I had completely forgotten the
last night was the Maroon five? Sure was, yeah. And
so as I'm pulling out of the garage, there's Rob
and all of his lovely ladies walking right in front
of my car. Uh huh, right in front of my car.
Speaker 10 (03:17):
Took me a second to realize it was YouTube because
it's not the car I'm used to seeing you.
Speaker 2 (03:20):
Yeah, it's oh god, that whole thing. Trying to get
this rental squared away for the trip home tomorrow. That's
been a lot of that's been a fun day too. Nevertheless,
Maroon five last night at the former Romo Fijo. I'm
not sure what they're calling it now. Nevertheless, Was it
everything that your girls had hoped that it would be?
It was great? Yeah, it was great. Look I'm everybody
(03:42):
thought and again you know me? Right? I think I do.
Speaker 10 (03:46):
I sent Alan a text from the show using this song.
Speaker 2 (03:49):
He was or no, was it this one? Misery?
Speaker 10 (03:50):
Misery? And I said, hey, look they did this one
for me, and I was just like a misery. But honestly,
I don't a band eye. I won't be doing backflips
over like if I'm If I go to a concert,
I stand there, my hands are usually in my pockets.
Speaker 2 (04:06):
I bob my head a little bit. I taped my
foot I sing along if I feel like singing along,
but never out louds like That's pretty much what I do.
It's what I've done for thirty years. But people read
that is are you not having a good time? And
every one of them ask me, like numerous times, Caitlyn
and my oldest Caitlyn, my youngest Cali, my wife, are
you guys are you okay having a good time? I'm
like I'm fine, Like what do you want? Do you
(04:27):
want me to like just start singing? And like what
do they or they jump into where they're very excited
for theirs, of course, And I gotta be honest with you, man,
Ninety percent of the time when I was standing there
watching the show, I was thinking about where I was
working when I played those songs, because I played every
single one of those songs as a current. Right every
started playing those songs two thousand and two, I was
(04:48):
doing Top forty, so I had done top forty in
pop radio through a huge chunk of my career, so
I'm like, oh, yeah, that's right.
Speaker 10 (04:54):
I was in Springfield here when this came out, and
I remember when we met the band here fun blah
blah blah. And then the other ten percent of the
time time I was thinking about how if Adam Levine
wanted me to be a sex slave, I probably would.
Speaker 2 (05:05):
That's a talented what a dreamy son of a Yeah,
it's a talented dude. Holy Christ. It's one of those
bands I just don't have a problem with. I would
not buy a ticket to go see them, but I
imagine it's just wall to wall fun. It's probably NonStop hits.
There was not one song we didn't know. I mean,
it's he did they did twenty It was the same
set listen looking at four songs They opened with the
(05:26):
Boys are Back in Town by Finn Lizzy. No that plays,
it's just playing, and then it fades into Harder to Breathe,
which was their first hit, right, and then it just
goes man. I mean, but they didn't They didn't play
What's the One. I don't see that. They played what's
the one where he kills the guy? Wake Up Call?
They did not play Wacers. It didn't my favorites moves
(05:47):
like Jagger again. It's it's twenty one hits. Two songs
came three or and We and I leave that.
Speaker 10 (05:52):
That was the only thing that kind of chopped my
ass a little bit because I like to get out
of there before the crowds. But they were having a
blast and wanted his day, so like, I sat through
an encore and then they want.
Speaker 2 (06:02):
To they want to rush out. That's and that was
the only time I got a little snippy mm hm.
They start yelling at me at that point.
Speaker 10 (06:07):
Now they're all standing there at the end of the
stage bowing and I'm clapping, and they're like, let's go, Dad,
And I'm.
Speaker 2 (06:11):
Like, I wanted to leave twenty minutes ago. Where the
hell do you think we're going now?
Speaker 3 (06:16):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (06:16):
Like there's a look at the line of people going
up these same stairs. We're gonna go up. We're waiting now, Yeah,
but your daughters go yes, but my dad is Rob Anthony.
He could probably get us to the car faster. Yeah,
get us out of the garage. We did, get out
of the garage quick. Just did your band in Chicago
do Maron five? No? Really, you didn't do any Maroon
five covers? No?
Speaker 11 (06:35):
Wow?
Speaker 2 (06:35):
Yeah, I was thinking about it. Is that a bandit
scrautch as you would all or no? Like as a
as a performer or just as a music fan. I
mean I used to back like in twenty twelve, right
when you were when you were a younger YouTube Yeah,
oh you did.
Speaker 9 (06:49):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (06:50):
It was like a homemade music video me and my
friend mate I edited. Although tell us that this is
quote circulating on YouTube. You're gonna tell people exactly where
on YouTube? Will never find oh, we will find it. Yes,
this crowd. Oh yeah, one crisp dollar bill if you do. Oh, really,
a crisp dollar bill. I wouldn't even care if I
(07:10):
had a couple of wrinkles in it. Frank AACS fans,
you know what to do. Your mission should you choose
to accept it to get that CRISP one dollar bill.
Just by the way, updated her Instagram handle Rob. We
were kind of giving her a hard time yesterday because
it was a little bit clunky and she changed. What
is it now, w MMS just Jess, just jef WMMS
(07:32):
just Jess. It kind of rhymes. It's not bad. I mean,
WMMS Jess was taken. You didn't want to go with Jess.
I can court Jess. You didn't want to do any
of those really really bad puns. Okay, yeah, okay, good
w MMS just just Jess. Got it is what she is?
Speaker 9 (07:53):
Now?
Speaker 12 (07:56):
What should do?
Speaker 2 (08:09):
Yeah? I heard from a lot of people yesterday. We
were discussing the We played it early, but it's gone
wide now. The VP at Campbell's Soup who was surreptitiously
recorded in a boardroom making all kinds of just awful
comments about their their customers and just you know, as
part of a lawsuit. And one of our Detroit bureau
chiefs had sent me the story because that's where it's
blowing up in the local NBC affiliate there in Detroit,
(08:33):
I think was the first to air that story, and
so I was getting a lot of messages from people,
and Sergeant T suggested Campbell's cream of Cox and New
England clip rattler. Now, I don't know that that's really
going to have a broad appeal. If you will sell
a ton in Cleveland, that's going to be about it.
But I did like to it was an unintentional pun
(08:54):
because of that story going wide. Investors in Campbell are
having a tough now again, it's not like the old
days where these were all self contained companies. Right, you
don't have stock you know, well anyway, the unintentional pun
was Campbell soup drama, hits stock price rob soup stock beef, Yeah,
(09:15):
consumme what kind of stock beef, seafood? You know, if
you have stock in one of the ConAgra, one of
these big food companies. You have stock in forty different labels.
It's not like the Campbell soup company is its own
thing anymore. But their stock market value hot on the
heels of this bad press. And it's not like people
care about if a guy is talking shrimp in a
(09:37):
board room for Campbell Soup. Noh. He mentioned that he
thought the chicken came from a three D printer. That
was problematic and our our stuff is for poor people. Problem,
right right. Last thing you want to do is make
fun of you, especially in the Trump economy where everything,
all the prices are through the roof. Last thing you
want to do, uh, is be caught mentioning that the
(09:58):
people who you're trying to sell to are somehow unwashed heathens.
But I hope that what this does in the aftermath
is I hope that there's a resurgence. You know, I'm
I am coming fresh off watching a three and a
half hour operatic production of the Grapes of Wrath from
Saturday Night, which is, you know, a story of desperation
(10:20):
and hardship and you know, a depression era America and
maybe rob The silver lining here is that this country
will once again come to love soup. Right, I may
speak maybe maybe out of necessity more than anything else.
Speaker 10 (10:40):
That would make me very happy. I'm a I am
a soup fan. Soup for dinner works perfect for me.
This has to be a nice, hearty soup.
Speaker 2 (10:46):
Or these guys maybe they lean into it. That's another
way to go.
Speaker 9 (10:50):
Right.
Speaker 2 (10:50):
What do they always talk about now is that the
war in our culture it's not racial, it's it's financial.
It's classiest, right. The real war in this country is
between the classes. You know, you have to convince people
that somebody who doesn't look like them or who is
from another country is really out to get them. But
(11:10):
it really is between the halves and the half knots.
Always name as it's ever. It always has been same,
has it ever been?
Speaker 4 (11:17):
So?
Speaker 2 (11:17):
Maybe these guys lean into it and they release like
a line of elite soups right where if you make
a certain amount of money, there's no way you could
possibly afford it. Rob, I see you know what I mean.
They go, these are our poor soups, and these are
our elite soups.
Speaker 10 (11:33):
Yeah, no, no, like you know all those subscription service here.
Speaker 2 (11:37):
Yeah, Cambell's Plus, Campbell's Elite. Yeah, Campbell's plus, Hamble's Gold. Hey,
this has fifty percent more fake meatballs in it than
the other ones. Three D printed chicken chunks. These are
so good we printed them in four D. Yeah. You
get a football player who's on his way out to
(11:57):
do the endorsements. My mom me to eat my soup,
and I'm eating Campbell's Plus. Who was doing those? Do
you remember? Wasn't it Marshawn Lynch shure. I think it
was further, but I think it was Marshawn Lynch. But
it was a guy, and it was a guy and
his mom. Did they do a series of those.
Speaker 10 (12:16):
I think there was a bunch of people that did it,
but I think Marshawn Lynch was the most recent because
I haven't seen that in a long time.
Speaker 2 (12:21):
Reggie White did it in the late nineties, Green Bay,
Jason Kelsey has done it, okay, the Chunky Soup ads,
Matt Hasselback. I remember my boy Devin Hester. It was
on the Super Bowl Bears back in the day. He
did one too. That poor guy. He can barely spell
his own name, but holy cow, can that guy played football?
The Allen Carr Show.
Speaker 8 (12:43):
One okay, so being called an audio eight crime by
Ohio Quilter Magazine, it wasn't our proudest moment the shows.
Speaker 2 (13:08):
Calves lose to the Raptors again last night. They have
a hard time against Toronto. Boy's a good team. Third
time in a row they lose. Raptors make it eight
straight wins in the backs of Cleveland one ten to
ninety nine. Calves are essentially in their holiday break now
they aren't playing again until Friday night. They'll be down
in Atlanta. Dovie Wilkins in the Atlanta Hawks. I saw
(13:31):
two separate articles in Sports Illustrated. One said Cavaliers head
coach Kenny Atkinson makes bold claim about Donovan Mitchell and
another one said Cavalier's head coach Kenny Atkinson makes bold
claim about star Nae Kwon Tomlin, which rob leads me
to believe that boy, that Kenny Atkinson is out there
making a lot of bold claims, a lot of bold claims,
(13:53):
a lot of bold claims, which reminds me bold Clam
would be a great name for the Allen Cux Show soup.
By the way, Richard Sherman is the football player I
was thinking, well further back than that. Donovan McNabb was
the one I was thinking of from way back with
(14:14):
the campbullsup athlete ads. Since then, that was a very
popular campaign, and so since then a lot more athletes
have done it. But I was trying to go way back.
I don't know if he was the first, but Donovan
McNabb and his mom was, and then Richard Sherman and
his remember when he was with the Seahawks, I sure do.
That's what I was thinking Marshawn lay his favorite Patriots
super Bowl Richard, when the Patriots beat the Seahawks.
Speaker 10 (14:35):
Yeah, because the Pete Carroll chose to throw the ball
on like whatever, they were on the one yard line, right,
Richard Sherman's face is still to this day.
Speaker 2 (14:43):
I had it on a T shirt. When the pick happens,
He's like, oh, that was the greatest thing ever. Right, Well,
I was when were the Steelers in the Super Bowl
two thousand and five? Maybe I was doing the week
of show, so I was still on in Pittsburgh, and
so I was doing a week of shows in Detroit
(15:03):
because this Yeah, that was Steeler Seahawks at Ford Field
in Detroit, and so I was there for the Steelers
and they beat the Seahawks pretty handily. But I don't remember.
Jerome Bettis probably did one of those soup ads the bus,
the bus with a bold clam about I don't know
(15:27):
Donovan McNabb and Mama McNabb. Now do Rob and his
family talk with their Boston accents at home? Or is
it only when he gets pissed off with the Ducks? Well?
Do I does my accent come out? Like? I never
really had an accent that yeah. Yeah, but I think
also people who are have at least grown up around
(15:48):
some regional accents like I have and like you have,
and if even if we don't have them, it kind
of comes out wicked. Yeah, I mean we definitely say
wicked at home. Yeah, like that. That's something Dad Maroon
five show was wicked, good, wicked good, dude. I couldn't
get over how good that show was. Guy, Yeah, dude.
(16:09):
Every single song, hit after hit after hit after hit,
and you try getting a shirt on that, Adam Levine,
I'll tell you that was the one thing that that
that kind of annoyed me.
Speaker 10 (16:20):
He kept his shirt on all the way through that.
Well here's the thing, No, no, what he did, the
way he did it annoyed me. He came out he
had the Yeah, he looks like a hobo.
Speaker 2 (16:30):
Sometimes he walks out wearing the flannel and he's all
baggy clothes, and so he came out with trying to
not be a pretty boy.
Speaker 3 (16:36):
Right.
Speaker 10 (16:36):
Well, no, he knows who he is, he knows what
he looks like, he knows he's this his ol guy.
So we he comes out wearing that and after the
first song that goes away and you would think you
would think John Lennon just appeared on the stage when
this guy removed his his over shirt, right, and now
he's just wearing the white tank top the can you
(16:58):
still call it what they were called wife beater?
Speaker 2 (17:00):
Wife beaters, that's what he's wearing. That's not supposed to
call him that, but that's what people. People understand what
you're talking about, correct, So he was wearing that.
Speaker 10 (17:08):
For the entire show, from the second song all the
way to the second to the last song.
Speaker 2 (17:13):
And then they start playing the hell would they close with?
Speaker 10 (17:17):
It was Sugar Sugar, And as soon as he turns around,
he just reaches and he does like the arm cross,
you know, to take the shirt off thing, and he
takes his shirt off. Dude, you would think, I said
John Lennon the first time this would have been like
Christ himself appeared on stage.
Speaker 2 (17:35):
People went so bananas.
Speaker 10 (17:37):
Women just losing their minds, and he must do something
with his tattoos.
Speaker 2 (17:44):
Because they're like, if they look brand new.
Speaker 8 (17:47):
Take myself off, yes, yes, please.
Speaker 2 (17:52):
This is a guy. His ink is so scattershot. He
looks like a guy wearing ai tattoos. He really does
all the time.
Speaker 10 (17:59):
And then I don't know if it's and it's not
like the filters that they use on the cameras to
make it look really good on the screen, because you could.
Speaker 2 (18:05):
I mean we were close enough. You can now every
picture of him, his ink looks like he just got
them the other day.
Speaker 10 (18:10):
He must there must be some kind of regimen you
he oils up, baby, Well, I mean there's oiling. I
mean you can, like right now, you could put tattoo
stuff on your tattoos and they'll look better than they
do currently.
Speaker 2 (18:22):
So you are looking you were transfixed and wondering what
kind of balm he uses on his there.
Speaker 10 (18:28):
Because there has to be something that he's using, like
a regimen that he uses that makes.
Speaker 2 (18:32):
Them look the way that they look.
Speaker 10 (18:33):
But I just thought it was so lame that he
waited until the last song to take it off, to
be like all to make the girls go crazy.
Speaker 2 (18:39):
He's not a piece of meat for you to a
gole over. But that's what exactly he did. He could
have left that shirt on the whole show. You didn't
have to take it off at the end. He wasn't hot. Yeah,
dude's pushing fifty two. I mean, he says in good
shapes got that model. Clearly, all the women in the
audience have forgiven this guy. Remember a few years ago
he was accused of like wasn't he DM and some chick? Yeah,
(19:00):
they did definitely forget. Yeah, they they don't care about that.
And see those abs. It's over there, you go. He uh.
The only thing that kind of sent me home, sad.
I drove him quiet. I'm only nine. Oh you were
driving home by yourself.
Speaker 10 (19:15):
Caitlin was with me. Yeah, nine days older than he is.
We're both forty six years old. Look at me, have
a good look, take this in, all this white and
the everything that you see when you look at me,
and then have a look at him.
Speaker 2 (19:31):
Movie. Yeah, but he's got to stay in shape. He's
a rock star. Okay, yeah, okay, great. If I was
in shape, I still wouldn't look like that. The beard,
why why does he have white hair? Why does he
have gray hair on his head? Because he's coloring his
hair and his beard and everything all the time. He's colored.
Rob is he aren't you losing? How are you losing
(19:53):
all that weight? Oh? Mentality? Hell, thank you for asking
Alan Mentality health dot Com slash Radio. Why don't you
take the time that we are are going to take.
You know, our last live show is December the sixteenth.
Why don't you take the remainder of the year. Yeah,
and just get your torso and arms covered in ink,
and then I know you do you, Yes, get those
(20:14):
gaps filled in right, because, like I said, again, his
are so random and all over the place. He's got
California on his stomach, and he's got some dumb lion
and he's got some Hindu crap, and he's got you know,
whatever thought crossed the transom of this guy's mind. He
walked right into a tattoo shop. He got to put
it on his body. Yea. And no again, you don't
need any kind of rhyme or reason, but jess what's
(20:35):
your tattoo situation? Zero tattoos? Wow? And I will never
get one. I mean I got I got my first
five and four months. You know, I've gotten all mine
within the last year. So I came really late to
the game. And you want why, You know, I just
never found something that I really wanted. That's exactly what
I see. All of a sudden it got to me,
(20:56):
Well I think back on it, and I'm like, oh,
my god, I wanted a foot tattoo at one point.
It's like love and the Infinity sign, and I'm like, oh,
I thought you meant a tattoo of a foot. That's
the first. That's I thought that too. That would be
amazing on your foot, a right foot on my left foot.
I want a tattoo of a right foot on my
left foot, and I want to say love and have
the Infinity symbol. This is my infinity foot like Thanos.
(21:20):
All right? Good? So none, Nope, Well there's still hope. Listen.
I spent the bulk of my life going I just
don't have and then all of a sudden I entered
into my effort phase, my effot era, and I started
getting them. I got another one coming into January, and
so it may still happen for you. You're still young.
What are you? Nineteen? Yeah? Pushing twenty old? Oh Rob,
(21:45):
she's pushing twenty. Could you imagine that? Oh pushing twenty?
Fairly legal? Okay, so that's all she needed to say,
he would you like to see the tattoo of a
foot on my foot? It with the infinity symbol? What
was that Instagram handle? Again, Jess? When don't really get
some followers. Now, yeah, it's only for feet w mms.
(22:09):
Just Jess careful. Mary Santora is going to be in here,
and she kind of had that foot thing sewn up
for a little bit, so I think she still does.
Speaker 10 (22:17):
I saw somebody ask her the other day if if
she still does that, and she sent the email address
to sign up for.
Speaker 2 (22:24):
It, it's santorre To's at gmail dot com, if memory served,
I believe that's correct. Yeah, if Rob lost weight, like
a good amount of weight, he'd looked like Adam Levine.
How about that?
Speaker 10 (22:39):
And and uh it changed my entire facial structure and
dyed my beard's my beard my hair?
Speaker 2 (22:48):
Richard Northfield once ago Alan did Rob watch any of
the show or was he just staring at Adam Levine?
I already said that I can't come down in the
guy for that. Adam Levine is a oh that gosh,
as they come, he is dreaming, dreaming, and he's talented
af right. This guy plays guitar and come on, well
(23:09):
that's the thing too. Here's these guys that are like
kind of good looking. You know, there's this whole thing
about how like if comedians are good looking, they're not funny,
and it's all nonsense. I understand what people mean, but
it's nonsense. People can't get their heads around the fact
that some people have everything right, really good looking, really talented.
You think of guys like Adam Levine, John Mayer, who
is a good looking guy. Rights not everybody's cup of tea,
(23:31):
but he's not an ugo, and those guys can play
their asses off, yep, and it makes you mad. You
want to see an ugly guy killing on the guitar
because you're like, well, at least he's got that well
that Greg Holman or something. That's what Adam Levine did.
Speaker 3 (23:44):
Right.
Speaker 10 (23:44):
Like, he comes out and you're like, okay, there's Adam
Levine modeling, and he walks over and he picks up
a guitar and just shreds, and you're like, come on, man,
it's dynamic as could be on stage, Like the whole
there's like you look around to see what else is happening,
but ninety percent of the time you're watching him, you
know what I mean, It's like, he's that guy.
Speaker 2 (24:05):
God damn it. Okay, I get a tenth of that
somewhere somewhere. You know, he's probably got a massive hammer
on top of it, Like everything is just I don't
know about that, and it all goes to guys like that. Yeah,
but what if that's where it falls off. That'd be great.
I want to feel like this guy's super talented. Only
problem is worst kept story in rock and rolls at
(24:28):
Adam Levine. You know, is you know he's rocking a
casho hung mouse like David Lee Roth Dave you you
have a casho down. I guess I didn't phrase the
question properly. He knew you're the owner of a cashoe
(24:48):
hurt when you gotta squeeze it into those leather pants. Uh, yeah,
there it.
Speaker 13 (24:56):
Is, hey Ellen, Just thinking about Dick from Dayton passing
the news that he got and it turned out to
be fraudulent. Maybe you should get his proper name so
when he does go a wall, you could at least
(25:17):
look it up and not have to struggle like you
did for Rick.
Speaker 2 (25:22):
Good day, Yeah, I like good day. Nobody signs off
good day anymore, right, I like good day the whole
sign off? Yeah, good the rest of the story. No,
I know I have all of Dick's information. What I'm
saying is that doesn't do me any good if he dies. Yeah, you,
nobody's gonna hit the name. Yeah, I have his name,
I have his address, I have all that information. I
(25:42):
just don't. That's not gonna help me if he cats out,
Like no, that was my point. Nobody's gonna call me
and go hey, f yi, I'd have to what give
it six months and then go gee? Let me look,
we haven't heard from Dick. We still haven't heard from
Walter Williams. No bad feeling on that one.
Speaker 10 (26:01):
Same And I'm thinking Walter Williams was a pen name.
Speaker 2 (26:07):
Oh you think that was a stage name?
Speaker 3 (26:09):
Oh?
Speaker 2 (26:09):
I see, I looked. You don't think his real name
was Walter Williams rob Oh yeah, No. He hasn't called
us in some time. And when he would call us,
he'd leave us these long, rambling messages, and sometimes he
would let slept that he was doing it from his hospital.
(26:31):
Oh Rick, I love Rick, I miss.
Speaker 14 (26:37):
He said, And I say, you know, tell me about
unless all the old thing.
Speaker 3 (26:48):
Yes, you like potato?
Speaker 2 (26:51):
I like, wow, you like tomato?
Speaker 3 (26:55):
Like what's wrong with your gab with potato?
Speaker 2 (26:59):
Yeah?
Speaker 3 (26:59):
Right?
Speaker 15 (27:00):
Why?
Speaker 14 (27:04):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (27:04):
February eighth will be the fourth anniversary of Rick passing away,
our friend uh. Frederick Clayton, who was a younger man.
He told us over the years. As a younger man,
he boxed under the name Devastation. That was his Nomda
Gueer in the ring Rob All and I agree with
Rob many as the time. I can recall being at
(27:25):
a concert and wondering what skin cream Rob Halford was using,
or what Deodour and Neil Pert had on that night.
Perfectly normal, signed Patrick, Hey, Patrick, let me let me
walk walk through something here for you.
Speaker 10 (27:36):
I saw Maroon five, dude, I didn't see Judas Priest.
I didn't see these rock legend bands. I saw Maroon
five with the dreamy Adam Levine out front.
Speaker 2 (27:47):
What do you want from me? I'm just being honest.
And the other guys in the band have to feel
a lot of ambivalence because they're like, look, we know
that this guy is the front man for this. We
know everybody's paying attention to Adam Levine. And if you've
seen the other guys in the band, you know exactly
(28:08):
why that is, right right, it's him and a bunch
of lumps. I mean, they're talented dudes, obviously, but nobody's
going you know. And again there's like nine of those guys.
There's a bunch of dudes in Maroon. They're not called
the Maroon five because there's five guys, like six or
seven guys in that band. Yeah, and then they probably
have touring members well, and then like you're getting paid.
But if you were to walk up to somebody and go,
(28:29):
I'm the drummer for Maroon five, nobody would believe you.
They go, could you introduce me to Adam Levine? Oh, yeah, okay, cool.
What's Adam Levine's cell number? Yeah?
Speaker 10 (28:38):
And no one cares that beat nick hippie looking guy's
been playing guitar with them since the beginning.
Speaker 2 (28:42):
James Valentine, Sure, exactly. I could name you all of
the guys in Maroon five and you wouldn't know if
I was lying or not. Absolutely not. No, Maroon's five
fans don't know the other guy's names. Correct, And it's fine.
It's fine that way, but don't I'm.
Speaker 10 (29:02):
Trying to come down on me because I'm a little
transfixed on the dream of Adam Levine.
Speaker 2 (29:06):
There were three guys, the four guys who began in
high school in the early nineties. The band was called
Kara's Flowers, which is a terrible name, Adam Levine, Jesse Carmichael, keyboardist,
Mickey Madden, the bassist, and drummer Ryan Dusick. Yeah, I
don't think any of those dudes are in that band.
Oh they all are now except not the drummer. But
(29:28):
there's another dude who their original drummer had to split
because he had shoulder and wrist injuries. See, that's a
guy who's playing too hard or he's playing improperly. You
shouldn't be a drummer with shoulder and wrist issues, really
if you're taking care of yourself properly. But yeah, good
luck name and any of those other dudes. But by
(29:50):
the same token, you're like, I don't need people to
know who I am. I'm playing arenas and I'm getting paid,
and then you can go off and do your own
side projects and laid. I mean, listen to these guys.
You want to know about that dude, You could be
anybody in that band and you're gonna You're gonna catch shrapnel.
I don't think it's I feel like it's not nineteen
seventy six anymore though, either, back when like roadies were
(30:13):
getting laid. You know, I'll introduce you to the band.
Speaker 10 (30:16):
Now, I guarantee, guarantee, the guy playing drums in Maroon
five can get laid by being the guy who plays
drums in Rooon five if he wants.
Speaker 2 (30:24):
To, without question, in La maybe no here in Cleveland, Dude,
he could have watched a stage. It's all moms in
that audience, exactly, Oh exactly. I was the right age,
wrong sex, That's all that was. There was a lot
of young people too.
Speaker 10 (30:40):
I mean, I think that the popularity of the voice
and all that stuff, you know, got people paying more
attention to him as they whatever.
Speaker 2 (30:46):
My kids loved it, you know what I mean. But
I think if you want to and you were in
that band, you could do whatever you want in that place.
It also has to be tough when you were in
a band, because Maroon five started with a very different
sound than they have now. They were kind of like
a funk rock band. Yeah yeah, oh yeah, and they're
playing to their talents. It's gonna be tough when you
either stumble into a new sound and you discover oh
(31:07):
that's what people like, so you go in that direction.
Speaker 16 (31:10):
You know.
Speaker 2 (31:10):
My favorite line about Marin five was we were our
biggest influences were Pearl Jam and Nirvana. Now that makes
sense because the band started in the early nineties. That
was everybody's you know, anybody who started to ban back then.
Their influences were Pearl Jam and Irvana, of course. But
you get to a point where you're playing Sugar and
Payphone and you're like, oh, this is what they want. Yeah,
and they got to lean into that. They got to
(31:31):
that point much faster. Think about it, man, They wrote
Sunday Morning. That song right was on the same album
as Harder to Breathe. So when those dudes were coming
out with trying to be rock stars, they had that
pop plan in their back pocket all day long, knowing, look,
this is what's gonna sell lead our lead singer looks
like that. Go out there and hit those hat pitches
(31:53):
and just make everybody happy.
Speaker 9 (31:55):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (31:57):
Well, anyway, was it sold out?
Speaker 9 (31:59):
No?
Speaker 2 (32:00):
Oh, I was going to say it certainly looked like
it was. Based on walking around down town. They moved
they did the closing the sides of the upper rise
and moved everybody down. But it was still a great crowd.
I mean it was loud, really loud. Mhm. It was
a good time, all right. Well, yeah, that is a
band that technically started wanting to be fish and then
(32:22):
they were like, oh well, there's already one of those.
There's already a Bao, and there's already a lot of those.
The world doesn't need another, uh pretender to the fish throne.
But you can see man like Adam Levine wants to
be a rock star, you know what I mean, Like
he's he's the front man, he's he's rock star. Imagy right,
(32:42):
But you can see when he picks up with guitar,
he wants to be Hendrix, you know what I mean,
Like he goes out and just slays. You've seen what
he did on that was it the Howard Stern Birthday unbelievable. Yeah, Man,
still one of the best versions other than Prince of
that song I've ever heard was him covering Purple Ring.
That's what I mean, And that's that's made me what
it was. Yeah, exactly. Yeah, That's what I'm saying about
(33:03):
last night, Like you're like, God damn it, why does
this guy have to be so good at everything? The
only thing he's not good at staying out of Teenager's
dms well and with our own jets pushing twenty here
allegedly we need to well, okay, you need to keep
an eye out. Allen Cock Show on one hundred point
seven called the Allen Cock Show relieved himself and did
(33:30):
it all.
Speaker 3 (33:31):
I mean you name it.
Speaker 2 (33:33):
He was probably happening.
Speaker 9 (33:34):
Two point six, five seven, eight one double oh seven
or eight one double oh seven.
Speaker 2 (33:40):
In a Cleveland station November's show, a panel appeared on
the window sill with a circle cut out.
Speaker 17 (33:49):
Oh what a sight.
Speaker 1 (33:51):
The mystery grew in the fading line, snowflakes fallen, whispers grow.
Speaker 2 (33:59):
What's behind and that panel's globe?
Speaker 3 (34:04):
That's the glory? What could it be?
Speaker 2 (34:08):
A portal to joy a mystery?
Speaker 17 (34:12):
Jingle bells ring as the story's role of Cleveland's own festa.
Speaker 11 (34:20):
Glory.
Speaker 2 (34:22):
If you listen to us on iHeartRadio from out a state,
I like to know where people are. I'm always happy
to send out Alan cochro stickers. Put you on our map,
by the way, Bureau chiefs Country Chris down in Memphis,
over in Memphis, Over in Memphis. I guess I haven't
heard from him in a minute. Alana listens in Dovert,
New Hampshire, Dova, Jova Tims in Saint Louis Graham is
(34:46):
in the District of Columbia, Shelby's in Butte, Montana. And
Chris is a brand new transplant to the Chicago Land area.
Got a gig with United Airlines, so he's gonna be
out in Arlington Heights. My nephew is a mechanic for
United Airlines. He lives in Tucson, Tucson at a Zunia,
(35:08):
and he says he's never gonna leave. He's like, I
never ever want to be in the middle of another
Chicago winter again. You know, we're making all these plans.
It's been a colossal pain in the ass trying to
get this rental car situation squared away. Because we're heading
to Illinois tomorrow and through the better part of the weekend.
My older kids will be along, and my son lives
(35:28):
there now, so I'm just gonna, you know, pull through
and scoop him up. But of course wouldn't you know,
And for anybody traveling, obviously they're keeping an eye on
this too. You're not going home, right, They're going to
Rhde Island. Is that snow and all this other stuff's
coming through, So it's like, you know, people are keeping
an eye on that and will you kind of thread
the needle where it's just rain or will it be
(35:50):
wind or whatever, And so that's what people are keeping
an eye on. Tony emails me and goes, hey, man,
don't keep us hanging because you played this last year
and you're gonna be gone for a few days. You
gotta play old fashioned Christmas from Lynda Bennett. Remember this song,
don't you were on the show last year when we
(36:11):
played it, Yeah, where the woman is singing the song
about how her whole family's going to be together, and
then the radio comes on and there's a bus crash
and they think that dad died in the bus crash.
Speaker 12 (36:21):
Member.
Speaker 2 (36:22):
This is a big hit. In nineteen seventy five, Linda
Bennett was called an old Fashioned Christmas and the parenthetical
subtitle was Daddy's Home. Yeah. And I don't know if
it was on the radio. It was on a major
record label. I don't know the rest of Linda Bennett's CV.
He didn't die in that fiery wreck, thank God. Well,
(36:44):
I thought that was implied. I wanted people rob to
be on the edge of their seats. I thought that
was implied. A lot of people refer to this as
the most infuriating Christmas song.
Speaker 3 (36:57):
There is.
Speaker 2 (37:00):
Also one of the few Christmas songs to have the
lyric no Survivors. You don't hear that a lot in
Christmas songs, not even in festive gloryhole do you hear
stuff like that? My children?
Speaker 11 (37:17):
The body.
Speaker 2 (37:20):
Land it on thick, you know, naked there is fine.
Speaker 1 (37:28):
We're sorry to interrupt this program, but a bulletin has
just been handed me. There's been a serious accident involving
the number five bus out of new Haven, and the
information we have is that the bus skitted on a
patch of ice and.
Speaker 2 (37:41):
Slammed into a tree. Stay tuned to this state. Wait,
how would they have all that information but they don't
know anything else? How would they know that it slid
on ice and hit a tree first on the scene?
Would just see the aftermath? You'd see a bus against
a tree. I think the guest new Haven Rock, Connecticut Base. Yeah,
for further detables. Mommy, isn't that the bus Daddy ride
(38:09):
each night?
Speaker 11 (38:11):
Put your mind, he's my children. Everything's all right, everyone.
Speaker 2 (38:19):
Yes, you've probably never heard the song in your entire
life at all. She was in your nineteen years of life.
You've probably never heard but she was psyched to hear
kids singing. Uh huh, don't get she does. She's on
record she loves nothing more than kids singing all good
for you? Well you're in for it. Christmas shoes. Yeah,
(38:40):
that's pressing song of all time. Yeah, I'm gone Jesus tonight.
Speaker 18 (38:46):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (38:46):
I don't even know if there's a fight to be
had about not liking kids singing. You know, if you
have to go to like a school play or something,
that's fine. You know you're in a you're in a
confined area. But there's the Tso song where they sing Jina.
That's that's that's the one that I like.
Speaker 11 (39:04):
Things will be okay, I'm noting best gonna happened on
this Christmas Day's nay, every Christmas.
Speaker 9 (39:21):
With all the ji?
Speaker 2 (39:24):
What stage of grief is denial? Is that the first stage?
There was so many could have rhymed there. Yeah, you
know Christmas because your dad got hit.
Speaker 3 (39:34):
By a bus.
Speaker 2 (39:35):
But there's so much they could have done. His ankles
are in a notthole, Squirrels are consuming his organs. Is
any they mistook his eyes for nuts? My children.
Speaker 3 (40:01):
To me trying to spell.
Speaker 17 (40:03):
The competition, jarring ladies and gentlemen had just been handed
the latest report involving bus number five out of New Haven,
and from all indications, we're sorry to report that there
were no survivors.
Speaker 2 (40:27):
Oh my god, this just can't happen. What am I
to do?
Speaker 11 (40:34):
What have I got left in life to look forward to?
Speaker 3 (40:42):
Who wrote me down?
Speaker 2 (40:46):
Merry Christmas? And that's the sun?
Speaker 19 (40:49):
Who's the bonitos?
Speaker 2 (40:52):
And take me out to Clare?
Speaker 3 (40:54):
But my mom?
Speaker 2 (40:55):
Can't you then? Nor Christmas?
Speaker 3 (41:02):
Everybody?
Speaker 2 (41:03):
No, it's late and I missed my bus. Well, don't
just stand there. Tell me what these presents? I missed
my bus? Did anything happen? I hope everybody got home
all right? Anyway? Linda Bennett and the old fashioned Christmas parentheses?
Daddy's home. Shouldn't that have been like for Tony Dong
(41:23):
Ding Dong? Daddy? Why are you ringing the doorbell? You
live here? See exactly?
Speaker 9 (41:31):
Well?
Speaker 2 (41:31):
Well, I think maybe his arms were full of gifts,
which then I'd go, wait, daddy, how are you ringing
the doorbell?
Speaker 3 (41:39):
Oh?
Speaker 2 (41:39):
Yeah, man, Daddy's home. Baby, you're gonna talk about an
old fashioned Christmas? Now make me an old fashion. That's
what they really mean, because it was our Dad's alive
this Christmas. Screw the other seventy five families that lost
someone tonight. It would be funny though, if he was alive,
(42:02):
but he was still in the bus crash. So he
shows up he's all in tatters, you know, rather than
him just showing I'm going I missed my boss jackets smoking. Yes,
the gifts are covered in other people's viscera. Yeah, it
looks like young Einstein with his hair sticking straight.
Speaker 4 (42:21):
Up in the air.
Speaker 2 (42:22):
And I managed to salvage all your gifts children. Sorry, Timmy,
this toy truck has someone else's spleen on it. I
hope you don't mind.
Speaker 3 (42:33):
Daddy.
Speaker 2 (42:34):
Is that cranberry sauce?
Speaker 3 (42:35):
There?
Speaker 2 (42:36):
Sure is? Mary? There were no survivors, just sa your gifts? Yeah,
just me. Well, anyway, thank you, Tony. I would have
forgotten that song had you not reminded me. I guess
I'll leave it up to the audience as to whether
or not that is a good or bad thing. But uh,
I don't know what else Linda Bennett did. I don't
(42:57):
know if she had another hit. I think I don't
even know if that qual as a hit. An old
fashioned Christmas and other people have memed it. Of course,
f all those people in the box who died, That's
what I mean, Like they're celebrating this one guy forgetting
everybody else. Yeah, so I don't know. That could for
(43:21):
all I know, that could be something that had been
faked many years ago. I don't know. By the way,
I'm joking saying that ess is nineteen. But of course
now everybody is hitting me up. I know, asking which
is that must go beyond basic curiosity, right, the degree
to which people are texting me with question marks, it
feels a little skive. She's not nineteen, Hey a little bit?
Speaker 9 (43:44):
Three?
Speaker 2 (43:45):
Yeah, how old are you? Jes twenty six? Twenty six
years old?
Speaker 3 (43:49):
All right?
Speaker 2 (43:49):
Yeah, hold down now? Yeah, seriously, well you're still I mean,
it's only twenty six. Cimondna I cried when I turned
twenty three. Why, I don't know. I thought it was
the end of the world. I'm fine, I'm like whatever, Yeah,
twenty six, why twenty trip? Was it twenty six? Because
you felt like you were on the other side of
getting close to thirties?
Speaker 3 (44:08):
That what it was?
Speaker 2 (44:09):
Oh? No, I am, but no, twenty three. I don't
know why? Sorry, twenty three? Ye twenty three threw you off. Yeah,
it really did. I like, see, I didn't start drinking
until I was twenty six, so twenty one held no
sway for me. Twenty five I liked rop because I
could legally rent a car. That's what a nerd I am.
I was like, now I getting rent a car. Now,
that was what was important to me. Wow, didn't care
(44:31):
about twenty one because I wasn't getting drunk. I didn't
care because I'd already gotten it all out of my system.
I started drinking off a fifteen years. That's well, I
did too, but then I stopped. I got hammered at fifteen,
and I was like, screw this. I just smoked weed.
I just hammered down. I just kept my foot on
the gas. So by that time twenty one came, I
was like, what, drink more beer. You weren't gonna let
(44:52):
you weren't gonna let the troubles with alcohol stop you.
That's right from continuing. It was a car. I was
gonna go full yeah, full tilt boogie yeap. So twenty
six all right, But I hope that you feel better
about your life isn't over and that she's not nineteen
everybody be happy. Wow, is she really nineteen? Well, listen,
(45:21):
creepy bastards. It's really my fault because, uh, you know,
I'm so good at purporting these scenarios rom the people
simply can't tell you know what I mean? My poker face,
whether you can see me or not, is unparalleled. They've
got some food news for I know how much you
(45:47):
love that Linus and Lucy song. We were playing that
yesterday talking about all the Vince Geraldi music and whatever.
The Krispy Kreme people, Rob, they've got some Peanuts themed donuts.
Okay donuts, yeah, don donuts, but not Duncan dough like
at the Shamokin Duncan Donuts got his. Krispy Kreme has
(46:08):
got some Charlie Brown and Snoopy donuts out. You'll be
able to start getting those this weekend, ah Rob, Who
wouldn't love that?
Speaker 9 (46:18):
Right?
Speaker 2 (46:18):
A little donut with the zig zag Charlie Brown shirt.
It's a little snoopy faced doughnut. That's nice. I like that, right,
that's fantastic. First of all, who knew Krispy Kream was
still around? Am I like off my nut here or something?
Speaker 3 (46:32):
Like?
Speaker 2 (46:32):
I thought Krispy Kreme. Remember when Krispy Kreme twenty years ago,
they blew up so fast that they like over extended themselves,
like every every like abandoned bank, every every place that
that the previous company left, they turned it into a
Krispy Kreme. I think banks were attractive because they had
(46:52):
drive throughs or is it drives through like attorneys general? Okay,
so back in the day boy five years ago, like
every empty building they turned into a goddamn Krispy Kreme.
So they spread themselves way too thin, and then they
had to contract. I thought, to the point where Krispy
Kreme was all but gone. But they are doing a
(47:13):
Peanuts Uh huh, what's that shape? I'm saying peanuts and
donuts peanuts as an homage to the people of shamok
and Pennsylvania who were mad when the Dunkin Donuts Doughnuts
burned down and the lady didn't want to go to
Turkey Hill and that's where the guy meets his lawyer
if he has any paperwork to go over. And so
(47:34):
Krispy Kreme is rolling out the peanuts and Snoopy and
Charles Brown themed donuts, peanuts, peanuts, treats, Rob and so
it does sound good though a Krispy Creme. Every so
often there will be a box in our kitchen in
the morning of Krispy Kreme glazed donuts. Yeah, and I
(47:56):
don't mess with it.
Speaker 10 (47:57):
Well, that's all you really need from any donut places, glazed,
especially from.
Speaker 2 (48:04):
That place they got the hot sign on You're good
to go.
Speaker 12 (48:07):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (48:09):
Yeah. Also, they have released the information on the turkeys
that are being pardoned by Trump. Gobble and Waddle are
being pardoned by Trump.
Speaker 10 (48:21):
Is this the first time he's done that? I was
talking about this earlier. Has he ever played along with
this before? I think that he did the first time around?
Speaker 3 (48:27):
He did.
Speaker 2 (48:28):
Yeah, for some reason, I felt like he just he
stayed away from all of these types of things. Well,
Gobble and Wattle are the two turkeys that are getting
pardoned by Trump, and people go, well, how do you
pick these? And it turns out these turkeys scammed people
out of millions of dollars in a crypto scheme. And
that's how you get a pardon from Trump. You actually
have to be guilty of something. Yes, they donated to
(48:50):
the Epstein ballroom, and that's how they got their pardon
from him. So they had. He had a whole thing
of turkeys and he wasn't sure which tow to pick.
And they said, well, these two over here were trying
to kill cops in January sixth. And he said, those
are my turkeys. That's how you get a pardon from Trump.
That's the fast track. Where are the two biggest scumbag
(49:12):
turkeys in the group. And they go oh, gobble and
waddle and he said, those are my guys. That's how
you get your pardon. But I don't know what to
do with the turkeys after that. It's ceremonial. It doesn't
mean anything for any president, doesn't mean anything. No, I
don't know what they do after that. I always thought
it'd be great for the photo op. But then they
walk them around the back and they like, you know,
(49:34):
kill them, just re release them back into general pop
into gen pop out there on the grounds of the
White House. No, they're just like, oh, hey, these two
are pardoned. They get back on the truck, they go
back to the turkey farm, like yeah, I think it's
all ceremonial. And they get back. Someone's like yeah, and
(49:55):
right across the street, you are going to like this
rob right across the street from us down here at
six sixty eight euclid you I've never gone to the
Marble Room. It is right across the street. It is
very fancy. It is both hoity and toity, just you've
been never never same it is. I think I know
someone that works there, well, used to. Well anyway, right
(50:18):
across the street and they have just launched rob Ohio's
first luxury water. That sounds about right down for this.
How can we charge people more for stuff? You know,
any restaurant The margins are so razor thin. They've got
to figure out what to do here. And so they
(50:38):
are proud to be the first in Ohio to offer
an expertly curated water menu. Hmm, okay, listen. Good for them,
And frankly, if you're going over there, you're gonna spend
some coin, so why not throw in the premium water.
(51:02):
They are extending the same uncompromising commitment to water, they say,
But what what are they doing?
Speaker 3 (51:10):
Like?
Speaker 10 (51:11):
They're just tasting different waters and then putting that on
their menu, saying that what we really like this?
Speaker 2 (51:15):
Could we get a water flight? Please? Could I get some?
This is poland Spring. This one here is Essensia. Yes,
this is uh our buddy DJJC. You know he's quite
the water snob?
Speaker 9 (51:32):
Is he?
Speaker 2 (51:33):
So this way?
Speaker 11 (51:33):
Oh?
Speaker 2 (51:33):
Buy his own admission? Didn't know that this might be
something great for him? I did not, so right across
the street from us. What I would like to do
is go in, not have any food, just sit there
and order a water flight. Could I have three fingers
of Vshi Katilan please?
Speaker 10 (51:51):
I heard I heard the boss out there talking about
going over there. I don't know if they're going today.
We can ask him to bring us some bad table
for six, he said, And he goes, Oh, will they
just go over there? We don't need no reservation. I'll
just walk in and be like, this is where we're sitting.
Speaker 11 (52:07):
Wow.
Speaker 2 (52:08):
It was like, damn. Didn't they just go over there
for a couple of days ago the Big Swing? And
d oh, yeah, I think you can. They went for
Curtis's birthday. Yeah, but I think this is something different.
They were talking to the girls about going, Wow, they're
living their best lives out there in the c suites,
aren't they. Oh yeah, good for them, dude, Yeah, I
don't begrudge anybody their success. Good for them. Well, I
(52:30):
want the very least I want to get a review
from them on their water flights, their high end luxury waters.
Gonna have to ask them what it's all about. There's
a bit of food news the Urling Carr Show on.
(52:54):
So you trying to make us all uncomfortable. It's not right,
cool man.
Speaker 9 (53:01):
There's plenty more where that game from back to the
Alan God Show on one hundred point seven mms.
Speaker 2 (53:12):
In the game little premature Monday, of course, will be
the first of the month. Cleveland loses again to the
Raptors in Toronto last night, third time in a row
that the Calves have not been able to get over
on the Raptors. But they're a very good team. They're
both pretty evenly matched. One T nine. That's eight straight
(53:37):
wins for the Toronto Raptors. Calves off until Friday night.
They'll be in Atlanta to play the Hawks. Then they'll
come home on Sunday to host the Boston Celtics. You
pronounced that wrong. You hot on Kevin McHale and the
Boston Celtics. You got it wrong again, dude. Tomata Calves
(53:57):
Basketball Friday night, All the game here on your FM
home for Cleveland Cavaliers basketball. While the hundred puts upled
well yoah ba bas and on the iHeartRadio.
Speaker 10 (54:11):
App what Disrespect on the Celtics name guy, get yourself
in Trouble over Day, Yes, Celtics.
Speaker 2 (54:18):
The very first show that I went to when I
moved to Cleveland, Ohio. You know, I moved here to
begin at WMMS. December the sixteenth, two thousand and nine
was my very first show here, right before everybody else
was kind of I just want to get my feet
wet with the equipment and the vibe of the station
and whatever before we went on holiday vacation. So our
(54:40):
last live show of this year will coincidentally be December sixteenth,
marking rob my sixteenth anniversary. Unbelievable. Nobody thought it would last.
That's a lie. Everybody knew it would. Nevertheless, the very
first show we went to go see in Cleveland was
Cleveland's own Bone Thugs and Harmony. My wife is a
(55:00):
huge fan, and it was a few months after we
came here. Is probably would have been the spring of
twenty ten at the House of Blues. I've told the
story before. You might have even been at that show.
There were one hundred people on stage. The cops came in,
shut the whole thing down, arrested Flesh and Bone. You know,
they had warrants out, people hiding under the DJ table,
(55:24):
and we're up in the balcony getting blazed with a
couple of cholos, and you know, these guys would kind
of Now, over the years, I've never had them all
in one room, but over the years I've had each
and every member of Bone, Thugs and Harmony on the show,
and it's always something with these guys. I like them,
I really do. But they're kind of running on the
(55:46):
fumes of the late nineties and early odds, but they
are still hometown heroes. They said that their show at
the Agora that's coming up will be their last. Whoa,
that's this Saturday night. If you are going well, they
say the Saturday night show at the Agora is going
(56:06):
to be their last show, one last show with all
the members. And that's kind of been a sticking point
for fans is these guys would go on two hours late,
or they'd stop the show early, or they'd say it's
gonna be all of us, but only two of them
show up, and so they didn't always have their mind
on their money and their money on their mind. But
they're playing the Agora on Saturday night, and they say
(56:28):
this will be the last time that all of the
members perform together. So if you take them at their word,
and you are a Bun Thugs fan, and you probably
shouldn't because this should be a huge hometown shows should
be huge for them. But if you, you know, if
people go to your shows and they don't quite know
(56:49):
what to expect, then you're gonna see the kind of
the law of diminishing returns. Are you gonna make it
back inside?
Speaker 15 (56:57):
No?
Speaker 2 (56:58):
Aha, I might have spoken too soon. So I'm dropping
my older daughter back in Michigan on the way back,
which is really not that far out of the way.
So maybe maybe maybe are probably up on the way
up to No. No, Nope, she is taking the train
(57:21):
into Chicago. We're gonna pick her up Friday morning. Nice. Yeah,
and they'll take her back on Saturday.
Speaker 16 (57:26):
Uh.
Speaker 2 (57:26):
So it would have to be boy, if I got
back into town, I'd have to haul ass straight to
the Agora. So maybe it's Gwen's favorite. It's a good gift,
you see what you're talking about gifts yesterday? I know,
but we're gonna get She's not gonna want to do that.
It's tell her you just look what I got. You
got your tickets to see Bone Thugs. And if she
(57:47):
says take them and put them with that harmonica up
your ass, then you know you made a mistake.
Speaker 3 (57:52):
Yeah I know.
Speaker 2 (57:53):
Yeah, well we'll see anyway. Bone Thugs say that this
Saturday night show at the which will be a couple
of days before the first of the month, will be
their very last show, not just in Cleveland, but ever.
But you think they would have planned that better, like
they would have had it on the first of the
month or something some month, you know what I mean,
(58:14):
wherever the first coincides on a date that works. Yeah,
I don't know. I mean, they're probably not going to
play the Agora on a Monday night, but well maybe
not this particular month. He just looked for a date
that works. Were the first falls on a Friday or Saturday? Sadday?
Alan Kevin McHale just died a week ago. No he didn't,
(58:36):
Kevin McHale from the Boston celcom that. No, he's still alive.
Maybe there's another Kevin McHale who's died. There was an actor.
There was a kid from Glee named Kevin McHale, but
clearly using your context clues, I'm not talking about that guy,
but I don't even know if he's dead. There is
a Glee dude who died. McHale's very much of it.
(58:59):
Kevin mc hell is probably seventy years old by now
sixty seven. The bucher that they have of him six seven.
The picture they have of him, yeah on Wikipedia, looks
like if Lurch and Paul McCartney had a child. You
need to look you see it. That's how he looks.
That's all. That's how Kevin McHale has always looked, you
know when this guy was on.
Speaker 3 (59:20):
The court, and be like you.
Speaker 2 (59:26):
The picture this in particular, I mean, it looks just
like Paul McCartney. Oh it's so good. You're like, hey,
Kevin McHale, why the long face? And they're the tit garden?
You of the buzzle so much for support of the
(59:50):
teams Stall, Oh he was something else. So boy, nice
contemporary reference for the kids. Lurch and a basketball player
they've never heard of. You go, congratulations, we did it. Jess.
You ever heard of Kevin McHale, No, you ever heard
(01:00:11):
of Lurch? Nope, surely you're familiar with the Adams Family movies.
I don't really watch movies. Here's the show Wednesday on Network. No, well,
you actually take that back. I watched a couple of pisodes.
Speaker 3 (01:00:25):
All right.
Speaker 2 (01:00:25):
So Lurch is the driver in that show. He works
for the Adams family and he that kind of just
makes noises when he goes to things. The tall one, Yep,
that's Lurch. I thought it was their butler. Well, he's multiler,
he's multi talent, he's a handy, he is the he's
(01:00:46):
a he's a monster wrangler. Whatever. See the other one,
cousin it is covered in a thing. Is the hand Wait,
who's the bald one? Fester? Fester gotcha? Which is a
great name for character. Fantastic concast. Fred Armison is him
and Wednesday. Yeah, I don't watch that show. It's very good,
(01:01:06):
is it? Yeah? I watched it with the girls. Now, Jess,
is it a time thing or you just don't like
watching movies my attention span? Okay, yeah, I understand. I
did watch one. Well, I watched it within like a month.
It was called Nurse Jackie on Netflix. That's a show
show that was really good. I finished that super fast.
But movies I can't. It's just the attention span. But
(01:01:28):
it's Edie falco Is. She's been added to that show
Mayor of Kingstown for people watching that with Jeremy Renner
just of course Carmelo soprano. And then her follow up
is called Nurse Jackie Christ and she's been added to Yeah,
the cast of Mayor of Kingstown the News, the Mayor
of Kingstown, Jayj's what are you doing in that show?
Speaker 6 (01:01:47):
Calm?
Speaker 2 (01:01:49):
Yeah, all right, So attention span, Okay, that's fine, But
in most movies, in her defense, most movies are way
too long, Like there's no reason there should be two
hour comedies, you know what I mean.
Speaker 10 (01:02:00):
But that doesn't affect you, Like if you're watching a
show that you're into, the attention span thing doesn't happen.
Speaker 2 (01:02:04):
Okay, I take that back. You know what I like
Hallmark movies? Okay?
Speaker 3 (01:02:09):
You all right?
Speaker 2 (01:02:10):
All right? Are you so bad? Okay? So you're like
you hate watch them or you're like you like the
gooey stuff a little bit. No, I hate watch them
because I laugh, it's funny. Yeah, but there's so many
things you could hate watch. Why Hallmark movies because the
plots are so predictable, Yeah, the girl moves back from
the big city and her high school boyfriend is there. Yeah,
but isn't that like Sweet Home, Alabama? And there's like
(01:02:32):
a billion other movies with that exact same plot. And
that's why I hate those movies because they are also predictable.
When the heart there's a So you have the Hallmark
channel for those. There's an entire streaming service for those.
Is there a Grand Old Popery Christmas? You could watch
We Met in December? The more the merrier Christmas Down
(01:02:57):
Christmas at the cat Nip Cafe with Emily de Chanel,
Santa's fuzzy sack. Yea, is that on there? An Alpine holiday?
Santa's fuzzy sack? That's not on there? Finding mister Christmas.
Baked with Love with one of the sister sister twins. Now,
(01:03:20):
see that should be a movie starring Cheating Chong and
not Baked with Love. Yes, yep, do you know who
Cheach and Chong are? Yeah? All right, I watched that
movie Up and Switch, Up and Smoke, Oh yeah, still smoking.
The Corsican Brothers. Nobody watched the Corsican brother yellow Beard.
I love that movie. There's some a movie with the
(01:03:42):
party of five. Girl called she's making a list. I
bet she's checking it twice too. Single on the twenty fifth.
This is just their countdown to Christmas over and then
of course there's Hallmark Mystery. Oh and they're on twenty
four to seven in my house. Oh yeah, oh they
are always okay, Oh yeah, Melissa will watch them and
then the girls will come in. What happens in this one?
(01:04:03):
I'm like, what, what do you think happens? The same
thing that happens at all The vet marries the horse
trainer that moved away for the big city. It was stop,
but it is interesting. There's something, there's something primal about
that kind of movie that draws people and they watch
(01:04:24):
it and there's an entire streaming service for it. This
is a greeting card company that now is shorthand for
a certain kind of movie. Yeah, right, it might as
well be like, you know, Xerox became a verb, right,
It was a brand name became a verb because it
was so pervasive. When you talk about, oh, it's one
of those Hallmark Christmas movies, people know exactly what you're
(01:04:45):
talking about. They don't think it's scrooged. They don't think
it's home alone. They know exactly what you're talking about.
I remember Dougie always talking about a royal Christmas crush.
I can't wait.
Speaker 10 (01:04:55):
I'm gonna start watching these on October seventh when they
turn the channel.
Speaker 2 (01:04:58):
I mean, what do you out of your mind? You're
gonna watch two months of this? But she's a single mom.
Speaker 10 (01:05:03):
People love. Listen, my wife is she's married. Believe she's married,
and she's got two kids. And they just sit there
and watch Hallmark movie. Wow, they're warm and fuzzy like
Santa Sack. Santa's fuzzy Santa's fuzzy sack.
Speaker 2 (01:05:17):
There's one where they're standing, uh, back to back with
each other, and there's a llama in between them. I
don't know what that is. We Wish you a Married Christmas?
What are what are the Lama's lines? Allan, what is he?
Good size?
Speaker 9 (01:05:31):
Nice?
Speaker 2 (01:05:31):
Lama knows it. So here's a clip from that We
Wish You a Married Christmas. Yeah, that's a Hallmark Camel Christmas.
Speaker 4 (01:05:43):
There.
Speaker 2 (01:05:44):
What's called camel toe Christmas? I forgot it was that
it's a camel, not the lama. I got my clips confused.
Small town Christmas, Good size nice lama comes from what
a lama that got loose in a town And they
just talked to one of the neighbors and her clip
was she was trying to be nice and the neighbor
was like, it's very nice, good size, nice lama. Just
(01:06:10):
completely random origins. Yeah, she was just trying to be
like a supportive neighbor. She's like, oh, we'd see walking
around good size, nice lama. What else are you gonna say? Right,
good size, nice lama. It was a good size, good size.
Speaker 3 (01:06:27):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (01:06:30):
I don't really watch movies, says Jess. I hate her already,
says this texter. I mean, that's a weird hill to
die on that you don't like Jess because she doesn't
like movies.
Speaker 3 (01:06:39):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (01:06:39):
I think a lot of people present company included. I
hate to admit that my attention span has gone to
shrimp and maybe it was inevitable. Like I said at
the beginning of this year, this is the year I'm
gonna read more. Now I did whether it's nothing to
write home about, nothing to brag about some people, but
(01:07:00):
you know, I literally know people who like h read
like a book a week. Yeah, me too, And in
my brain, I go, first of all, I'm putting this
crap together twenty hours a day. But also I'm like,
when I read, I love it, but I'm not going
to read a book a week. No. I finished maybe
four books this year.
Speaker 10 (01:07:20):
It's because you're too busy watching twenty seven hour documentaries
about country music.
Speaker 2 (01:07:25):
I turned it on again last night and I was like,
Rob's going to be so mad that I'm watching this.
Do you watch Do you watch Edgerald Gordon like goon
w Sundown? Do you watch that one? Finish it? Every
time I talk about a docum you care it all
about documentaries, Jess, Oh, I love them. Okay, well those
are very long too, though, so when you talk about
attention spam, that's why I ask every time I mentioned.
(01:07:47):
Every time I mention a documentary, Rob goes, oh, did
you finally watch the Gordon Lightfoot documentary? Which it's understandable
because it's short, right, it's like forty five minutes and
YouTube maybe wait a minute, so holdo, just do you
know who Gordon light What is now? And we're moving on?
Go ahead? Have you ever heard the wreck of the
Edmund Fitzgerald? They just had the big anniversary. You probably
(01:08:07):
saw it all over social media. Even if it didn't
register what it was.
Speaker 20 (01:08:11):
Now.
Speaker 2 (01:08:12):
One of his big big songs the Wreck of the
Edmund Fitzgerald. And then he has a song called Sundown.
He was a Canadian singer songwriter, okay, and died maybe
a year or so ago. Anyway, there is a documentary
about him called Sundown, and it's not very long. And
every time I talk about a documentary in watching, I
watched five hours of Billy Joel and hbo oh God.
(01:08:34):
And I'm not even like a massive Billy Joel fan.
It's just I grew up with my mom listening to him,
and so I have an infinity.
Speaker 10 (01:08:41):
He's gonna give five hours to Billy Joel, but not
five minutes to mister Gordon Lightfoot.
Speaker 2 (01:08:45):
Well, but you asked me, and I always say no,
So ask me again. Have you watched the Gordon Lightfoot documentary?
Ac No, but I sare I will eventually guess. Oh
that sucks? Who hates that? Answer?
Speaker 3 (01:09:01):
Hate it? Now?
Speaker 2 (01:09:03):
How have you not watched the rest of that? You
started it? You said, I'm about ten minutes in. Did
you hate it? No? No, it's just something else crossed
my field of vision or I had to put my
nine year old to bed or something. I mean, if
it was just my opinion, if it was just me
saying it was great. But you've been emailed numerous times
(01:09:24):
from this audience telling you it's good. I know it's
all great document. I'm not on the fence about it.
I just need to remember I'm watching it and click
it on. There was a whole list of things you
no cave up on all of them. Alan is Dave,
a fan of Hallmark movies. Hey, you're in good company.
What do you say when the vet marries the horse trainer?
(01:09:47):
What do you say when the vet? Yeah, well you
would like when you get all the go go. How
do you feel about that? I live my life like this.
No tomorrow, right tomorrow, Alan and Jess said, I like
Hallmark movies. I swear to god you could hear a
tumble weed roll through your studio. Well, now we're learning
(01:10:10):
about Jess, that's all it is. Yes, these are little
pieces of the puzzles. So when we go, oh, you
know something that if if we so choose, locks in
our brain. So the next time we go, oh, I
was sung In any new thing, we'll call it a relationship.
In any new relationship you have to peel back the
(01:10:32):
layers of the onion, and that's what we're doing.
Speaker 4 (01:10:34):
Now.
Speaker 2 (01:10:34):
We're getting a little more insight into who Jess is
as a person, right yess yeah, Alan, did you see
the movie called two L's One sleigh s l a y.
Stephanie says her record is one hundred and thirty one
books in a year. Oh ravo. Listen. I always thought
(01:11:00):
of myself as a reader, right, and at my core
I am. But wow, nerd, I thought that I was.
I thought that I was going to escape the whole
the decimation of my attention span. And I don't know,
(01:11:21):
you know, when we go on break for the end
of the year, maybe I'll hunker down and do some reading.
Speaker 4 (01:11:27):
But then you know what I do?
Speaker 2 (01:11:28):
I go, why why I do that? We're all dead
in five years anyway? Like who am I trying to impress?
Don't set yourself up for the failure of not doing it.
You're not going to read five books, no, but you
know what, you know, the older you get, At least
for me, it's a matter of like, let's see how
much information I can scram into my brain, because listen,
it's helpful for this, right, we talk about a billion things, right,
(01:11:48):
And the more things I have floating around in my head,
the more that I can It's always been the case,
the more that I can invariably call them to mind
if they're relevant. But the stuff that I read, like,
I don't read fiction. I read nonfiction, so I read
like biographies and I read things like that. So I'm
not reading fictional books. But I also ain't reading one
(01:12:09):
hundred and thirty one in a year. She said, that's
her record. So before Oh God for you go out. Yeah,
I know, go outside, nerd oh, listen, go But everybody's
got their own thing. Jess isn't reading books because that
(01:12:29):
requires probably more attention span than she's got. Are you
reading books? Jess? Sometimes? But I can't even get through them? Wow?
My favorite movie of all time, which is what Paul
blar Mall Coop shut? That is not your favorite movie
all time? Hold on? That is your of all time
(01:12:50):
all time. It's not it's no one's favorite movie. The
Thanksgiving movie movie thinks of that movie. No Thanksgiving movie
is Planes, Trains and Automobile. Have you seen that? But
Paul Blart is your favorite movie. Yeah, and it's almost
Thanksgiving actually, So I got to start it. It takes
place on Thanksgiving and Black Friday. I love that movie,
(01:13:12):
Paul Blart Mall Cop. That is my favorite sort of guy.
That's my favorite answer of all time. That's the greatest
thing I've ever heard hers from. Now I'm gonna be like, bro,
I knew this girl one's whose favorite movie was Paul
Blart Mall Cop. Right after she told us she hated movies.
It's like a story that you tell explaining why you
broke up with someone. She watched You guys were really
(01:13:36):
made for each other. I thought, dude, her favorite movie
was Paul Blart Mall Cop.
Speaker 10 (01:13:41):
Was good to one day she said she watched Paul
Blart Mall Coop and it was her favorite Thanksgiving movie.
Speaker 2 (01:13:45):
Yeah, yess hey, listen, no judgment. That's an amazing grab.
I've never heard anybody. I've never heard anybody even say
that they like that movie. Let alone it's their favorite.
Like my favor are parts where the hobo is singing
on the stage and then he falls through the window.
So you're like visual comedy, you like physical comedy. I
(01:14:08):
just like that movie Paul Blart. Because didn't they make
a sequel? They didn't I didn't watch it the appropriately
titled Paul Blart Mall Cup too. Oh okay, deep in
for that one cop harder. All right, Wow, good for you.
Paul Blart Mall Cup favorite movie of all time? Have
(01:14:31):
you seen like the Godfather? I mean it was a
huge hit. It's not like she's some weirdo. It was
a huge hit, hence the sequel. They shot it in Boston, Rob, No,
it's not weird that she's seen it. They shot it
weird that it's her favorite movie. They shot it at
the Burlington Mall. Do you know where that is? I
do in Burlington, Massachusetts, after they got denied a permit
(01:14:51):
from Willowbrook Mall in New Jersey. I've been there, bro,
I've been to that mall huge times. They also shot
at the South Shore Plaza in Raintree, Massachusetts. All Right,
poor Jess has to go over and use a different
microphone to answer calls because God forbid both of them
go into the phone lines. Yeah, so she has to
(01:15:13):
go use a different microphone to talk to callers when
they call in. So that's why she just wheeled across
and like started talking into a separate microphone. So, if
you were watching on the show. I gotta take a
break anyway, I give her a break. All Right, I'm
gonna We're gonna die. We're gonna digest Paul Blart, mall

that's Sister Act. His favorite movie. He doesn't know the
name of Rob. Sisterhood Act too, so not Sister Act,
but he likes the second one. I have to think
second verse same as the first when it comes to
(01:17:15):
that movie. I've never seen any of the Sister Act movies.
And you know me, Rob, I was once the president
of the Midwest chapter of the Kathen the Jimmy Fanclub. Okay,
Sister Act too, Jeff, Before I let you go, care
to make your case? Yeah, I just think it's funny.
(01:17:38):
Have you seen a lot of movies? Well, I don't know.
Speaker 16 (01:17:43):
My attention span is not really there to watch movies.
Speaker 2 (01:17:46):
Yeah, I mean in your lifetime, have you seen movies
like for that to be at the top of your list.
I'm just wondering why. I'm not saying it wrong. I'm
just wondering why. I don't know why. I don't know.
What's your favorite movie? The Godfather? Why? Because it's one
of the greatest movies I've all, Because it's hilarious, Jeff,
(01:18:08):
And that's why it's Good Fellows Sisterhood Act too, not
Sisterhood Act. Thank you. Well, listen, Jeff and I, you know,
we're probably the same age we started watching movies on
the zoa trope rob. You know, they'd put the light
throw and you just spin a little guy on a
horsey and you'd go to sleep. M You know, Variety
magazine dropped the top one hundred comedies of all time,
(01:18:33):
and I haven't gone through the exhaustive list, but I
bet I can garon f and t you that Paul
Blart mull Coop is not on there, nor is Sisterhood
Act too. But I always put it in context of listen,
Jess is twenty six, so she was like ten when
that movie was out, So of course she's gonna love it. Yes,
think of the movies you loved when you were that age.
(01:18:56):
Now you don't usually keep them. Is your favorite movie,
but it certainly explains why you'd go, oh my god,
Paul Blart Mall Coop love it and you've stuck with it. Yeah.
Always that's a double down on it? Now? Is it
almost Thanksgiving? Gotta watch it? I mean I only saw planes,
(01:19:16):
trains and Automobiles for the first time last year. What
I know that that is considered the gold standard of
Thanksgiving movies, mostly because there's a dearth of Thanksgiving movies.
There just aren't that many, really, But I had never
seen that movie in its entirety before. That's also an
amazing film. Aside from being a thanks it was great.
(01:19:38):
It was great. Now here's what I'm gonna have to
do in the interest of transparency. I'm gonna have to
Rob go back and watch Paul Blart Mall Cop and
Sisterhood Acting to Sisterhood Act too. Yeah, that's right. But
Variety magazine dropped their one hundred Greatest Comedies of All time,
(01:20:02):
number one, the Naked Gun, the first one, the first
Naked Gun, Yes, which I think is a fine pick.
It's a fine pick. You know, comedy obviously is very subjective.
Bridget Jones Diary comes in dead last at number one hundred.
(01:20:23):
The fact that even made the list is well, I
was kind of I was. I really just kind of
zeroed it in the top ten, and I was a
little surprised as some of the ones that were in
the top ten. Naked Gun was number two, number one,
rather number two is some like it Hot, which is
a you know, Jack Lemon Marilyn Monroe flick from monro
Ro Marilyn Monroe Monroe from the fifties that not everybody
(01:20:46):
has seen. You know, a lot of cross dressing in
that film, not for everyone.
Speaker 21 (01:20:51):
But last year and only on New York twenty three,
twenty four at Wagner College, then his freshman at sophomore
years at Monroe College. You ever watch the show t
night on ABC too Close for Comfort were and he
would come into the room and address his daughters and
the the guy who were them Monroe through Monroe.
Speaker 2 (01:21:12):
You can hear his color guy go uh uh huhh yeah, everybuddy,
my cousin's there at ESPN and Charlotte dropping in a
nice Monroe reference. Annie Hall number three disagree there again,
you Woody Allen is an acquired taste. Boy. Annie Hall's
a fine movie. I three on the All Time Comedy List. Well,
(01:21:33):
I feel like also those early Woody Allen movies are
so revered by like critics and stuff that that's why
it ends up on these lists. Just saying it just
to say, guess, yeah, The Great Dictator, the Charlie Chaplin
movie where places at the parody of Hitler number four. Okay,
I can see people saying that saint like I'm doing
(01:21:53):
the silent jo gesture here when I hear that, you know,
like the oh woody, oh yeah critics. But that's the
same thing I just said to that guy about The Godfather,
right Like people would look at me the same way
and be like, oh, of course you're gonna say the Godfather. Now,
Waiting for Gufman is number five. That is one of
my favorite comedies. I'm surprised that they have it at
number five. I have to assume because it's for you know, again,
(01:22:14):
did go that high with it? This wasn't crowdsourced. Is
Waiting for Guffman a top five movie for me? Yeah? No,
I don't think it is. But it's absolutely top Tenson
Show and Waiting for Goufman easily top ten. Very very funny,
Python in the Holy Grail Duck Soup, Like I didn't
I didn't get Like as a kid, I wasn't. I know,
(01:22:34):
that's the Marx Brothers. But like as a kid, I
wasn't allowed to watch The Three Stooges because my mom
thought it was too violent. So as a result, some
people will Revere. The Stooges. I never got into them.
I do love the three people say they love the Stooges.
I go, I'm a huge iggy pop band. It doesn't
even occur to me what they're talking about. Fargo is
in the top ten here, young, The Frankenstein Perfect Groundhog
(01:22:56):
Day is number ten. Let's see. Hey, Sean, Oh yeah,
what up?
Speaker 3 (01:23:04):
Not much?
Speaker 18 (01:23:04):
Uh?
Speaker 4 (01:23:05):
Well, first, I you guys were just talking about playing
Trains and Automobiles. I just watched that movie for the
first time ever on Friday, which.
Speaker 2 (01:23:12):
Is that I watched it last year. Did you like it?
Did you think that it lived up to the I
hesitate to say hype because it's been around so long.
Speaker 4 (01:23:18):
But right right, I thought it was pretty funny. I mean,
it stands the test of time. It's a great movie,
right as far as comedy goes. Yeah, okay, great movie, good,
very underrated. But my god, I have a problem hearing
kid Rock on my way to work at four o'clock
in the morning because he's so magafied.
Speaker 2 (01:23:41):
Wait, you have a problem. On w NMS, we were
playing kid rock.
Speaker 4 (01:23:46):
Yeah, like, every morning on my way to work, a
kid kid rock song comes on, and even if it's
a song I like, I just can't listen to it anymore.
Speaker 2 (01:23:55):
All right, Well, let me just go ahead and take
a look at that, and I guess I schedule the music.
I can. Kid rock Cowboy played at four thirty eight
this morning, and did it play it? Did it play
at four o'clock on Monday morning on Monday morning? Let
me check four am on Monday? Kid rock?
Speaker 4 (01:24:13):
No?
Speaker 2 (01:24:13):
Kid rock? No, let's go back to Friday.
Speaker 4 (01:24:16):
I mean, you know what I'm saying.
Speaker 2 (01:24:18):
Though I know what you're saying, but again I don't
it doesn't really change it. No, No, no, I don't.
I don't. I don't even mean that I'm saying, Like,
if you like the song, you like the song. You
know what I mean, Like, it doesn't really change my
song anymore, no more, right.
Speaker 10 (01:24:39):
I just I'm more worried about the songs playing in
the same hour all the time because I schedule the music.
Speaker 2 (01:24:44):
Now, it didn't look like that. That's not what happened.
But again, perception is reality.
Speaker 10 (01:24:48):
So if you hear ball with the Ball one day
and then you hear Cowboy the next, it's gonna sound
like it's with the Ball.
Speaker 2 (01:24:55):
And I sat through the first verse, and.
Speaker 4 (01:24:57):
Then I was like, all right, I can't.
Speaker 2 (01:24:58):
Do it no more Yang and Dad Dang Diggy Diggy Sean,
and the songs just sucked too, Diggy Diggy. I don't
I listen. I don't play the songs on this radio
station that I want to play. I play the songs
that are like, yeah, they didn't show up and people
want me to play. I would gladly ever play one
of those songs again. I think they're ridiculous, but people
love kid Rock. He's an American badass. Watch him kick.
(01:25:22):
You can roll with rock, or you can radio edit
and rhyme.
Speaker 4 (01:25:26):
I guess I'm I guess I'm just gonna have the
radio edit when.
Speaker 2 (01:25:30):
He comes on. Sean, what do you do where you're
driving to work it?
Speaker 18 (01:25:32):
For?
Speaker 11 (01:25:35):
Uh?
Speaker 4 (01:25:35):
I work at a We make furniture for like really
expensive nights furniture. We just actually made a bunch of couches,
like fifty couches for Saudi Arabia.
Speaker 2 (01:25:43):
I say, for Jade Vance.
Speaker 5 (01:25:46):
I was thinking about.
Speaker 4 (01:25:48):
Making a meme, just taking a picture of a bunch
of couches and making a meme, but I don't want
it to come back on me and get fired.
Speaker 2 (01:25:55):
So Sean you're a crafty.
Speaker 4 (01:25:58):
Uh, I guess you could.
Speaker 2 (01:26:00):
Yeah, yeah, okay, I do like the easy stuff. But
you're still doing it. You're still doing romance work though
you're you're you're an agral cog in the furniture making machine.
Yeah yeah, okay, all right, well listen, we'll keep an
ear out for the for the Bob Ritchie music. Okay,
all right, thank you, thank you, Sean. They're Shawn out
Willard Ohio. Does that make him amish if he's out
(01:26:22):
that way? Oh? I don't know. He didn't sound amish, No, no,
but it's I'm wondering it's like an Amish shop. Oh oh,
I don't know, because that's as feel about him.
Speaker 11 (01:26:31):
Rock.
Speaker 2 (01:26:33):
Amish furniture is insanely expensive, Hey Tom, Yeah, but it's
such high quality it is, and it's made so quick.
You know, they'll build you a garage in a day.
You'll pay three times as much. But if you're on,
if you're if you need a garage right away, Rob,
and you know how often you need something like that?
And hello, Tom, Hey, how you doing, Allen? What's going
(01:26:55):
on for a while? Okay, welcome back.
Speaker 7 (01:26:59):
Well, this is my first time to get to say
Hello to the click rattler. Hey, so, just a funny story.
You were talking earlier on the show about drummers not
getting any action. I had a funny story when my
ex wife was bar attending down in Columbus and the
band Tonic came in and there was nobody else in
(01:27:19):
the bar but them and her, and one of one
of our fellow co workers ended up giving a beach uh.
Speaker 2 (01:27:32):
To the drummer for a Tonic. Not even Emerson Hart.
It was the drummer whoever that was back.
Speaker 7 (01:27:36):
Yeah, okay exactly, And so you know, I pointed pointed
out to him, I said, hey, by the way, our
jukebox company says that you are the most played CD
on the jukebox. And his response was, why don't you
have our new one. I'm like, oh, I didn't know
you had another.
Speaker 2 (01:27:53):
Oh yeah that's what he went with. I'm not like, oh,
that's cool.
Speaker 7 (01:27:58):
Yeah exactly exactly, because even take a compliment, Yeah, the drummers. Drummers,
drummers from even obscure bands get actions. What I'm trying
to say, I'm sure, I mean.
Speaker 2 (01:28:09):
It does happen. I'm just saying that, like, uh yeah, no, listen.
Speaker 7 (01:28:14):
Yeah you can't a little drummer girl. To this day,
she's still known as little drummer girl.
Speaker 10 (01:28:19):
Yeah, do you think he You think he was standing
there getting said beach taking a peek down goes hey.
Speaker 12 (01:28:26):
Open up your right, let him tell a story. Now,
if you could only.
Speaker 2 (01:28:38):
See the top of your head, this is just a
casual affair. That's right, all right, Thank you, Tom, Thank you.
There's Tom with a story about what did he say
his wife? His ex wife's coach worker wearing the drummer
of Tonic down On. Now, that is a band that's
had about a dozen drummers in twenty years. So I
(01:29:01):
don't know. Boy, that's the next mystery is who they're
talking about. They're not that we care, no, But I'm
looking at this list. You're that Variety Top hundred Comedies list. Dude,
I Caddy Shack is at twenty two. That jumped out
at me too. Yeah, well, because I think it's okay.
(01:29:22):
It's Variety magazine, So it's gonna be movie critics. Yeah,
who are gonna think? You know, listen, movie critics think
that some of those things are low brow. That's why,
with respect, you're never gonna see Paul Blart mall coop
anywhere in those one hundred picks. Have you ever heard
of a movie called The Bank Dick. I'm serious. That's
a number from the forties, number twenty one on the list.
(01:29:45):
It is a Groucho Marx movie. No, the Bank Dick,
number twenty one. It's funnier. I just don't know those
old I don't know those black and white comedies. It
happened One Night, number nineteen from nineteen thirty. I don't
think I've ever seen a Marx Brothers movie. You know
what it's not. It's not funnier than Dumb and Dumber
(01:30:07):
or Young Frankenstein. Young Frankenstein one of those. I mean,
that's in the top ten. Even History of the World
is funnier than most of the things that are here.
And that's the lower of their movies. I think Bride'smaids
at twenty four funny, Yeah, Ron and Willoughby's like, what
the hell airplane is number sixty two, bull, It's.
Speaker 10 (01:30:26):
Funnier than number twenty six, I think, and not because
the movie's that funny, but because of what they were
able to accomplish with that character.
Speaker 2 (01:30:34):
Now, somebody texted me that my cousin Vinnie is the
best comedy of all time. That's absolutely one of my things.
Couldn't make a case for that. What what was that word?
Speaker 7 (01:30:46):
You to?
Speaker 2 (01:30:47):
What? Youths allan? My favorite comedy is The Passion of
the Christ. Oh boy, yeah, no, listen, I get where
you're coming from. I'm an atheist, but I still you
got to give it up for that's al you made
your decision for Christ. I think that's the same movie
is When Harry Met Sally? A comedy? I think so.
It's considered Rob Reiner, it's considered a relationship comedy. Oh,
(01:31:07):
I love that movie. I love When Harry Met Sally.
Saw it in the theater like twice in eighty nine.
I think love that movie. Billy chryss Ol, Meg Ryan
at peak Powers, Bruno Kirby, the late Great Bruno Kirby,
Carrie Fisher acting in the film. Great movie. The Princess
(01:31:27):
Bride at thirty seven. Good movie. Yeah, showed that's my
daughter for the first time a couple of years ago.
It actually it still holds up, right, did you not?
I thought it was still great. I think so. It's
another Rob Reiner movie. I mean, very funny. The guy's
pretty deft when it comes to comedies. Hey what agent? Hello,
Hello Woodie? How are you pal? I'm good brother.
Speaker 7 (01:31:52):
My ex wife's coworker is doing a mad day short
the beat some ballroom Saturday.
Speaker 2 (01:31:58):
All right, hello, great story. I was gonna say what what? Yes,
you're you're Yes? No, I say the best, the best? Hey, Rob,
how you I'm good man? Go ahead? Way we just
saw what he on Saturday. Sunday. Sunday. Yeah, out of
the out of Aurora in the basement for the finals there,
(01:32:21):

he's a man. He's a bonto levant Rob. What'd you
call me? Pre You're a bond vivant? You live in
your best life?
Speaker 7 (01:32:34):
I truly am. Yeah, I'm all farting around in the rain.
Speaker 6 (01:32:37):
In the garage.
Speaker 2 (01:32:38):
Yes, and uh, you know I when I want to
and I don't when I don't want That's right. Nobody
gonna tell him how you're gonna tal.
Speaker 16 (01:32:54):
All right?
Speaker 2 (01:32:55):
What's Upboddy? Nothing?
Speaker 6 (01:32:57):
Man, I but I'm gonna bumla lower your mind the
best comedy movie of all time?
Speaker 4 (01:33:04):
Are you ready?
Speaker 2 (01:33:06):
I couldn't be readier? Is that a word on my suspense?
Speaker 4 (01:33:10):
Word?
Speaker 2 (01:33:10):
But uh, Napoleon Dynamite is the best you know my
thoughts on that, or maybe you don't. Yeah, okay, so listen,
I know it's popular despite being an utterly terrible movie.
I know a lot of people like it. Uh, but listen,
what are you going to say? I'm in the minority
(01:33:31):
on that show? Hey, what do you it's it's it's
the it's the stupidity of it all. Yeah, but stupidity
can be I think there there can be something funny
about stupidity. But that ain't it with that movie, which
is why they never never made a sequel that main
dude could barely get anything off the ground after that
(01:33:51):
because they were like, yeah, it's like kind of a
hipster comedy, and it was very much of the time.
But it's not great and nobody wanted would admit it.
But you have to understand the stupidity of all is
what makes shows great, you know, like like some shows. Uh,
go ahead and say it, what do you like this program?
(01:34:13):
It's fine if you could only see what he is
about two fingers deep, I think, and he's drinking. And
while we got you, I gotta, I gotta, I got
a question for you, Yes, sir, out at the the
gig the other day. Came over and we took a picture,
and when you put your arm around me, you very
(01:34:36):
slowly moved your hand across my left buttock and up
my back and then onto my shoulder. Is that intentional
or was that just the the Glenn livit?
Speaker 4 (01:34:45):
That was?
Speaker 6 (01:34:47):
That was the shots that I had prior to the venue,
And it was just because I have an admiration for
your telling.
Speaker 2 (01:34:54):
Oh well, that makes me happy. So there was a
there was a purpose for It wasn't an accident.
Speaker 3 (01:34:58):
What you're saying it was.
Speaker 2 (01:35:00):
It was by design. It's very slow now, and it
was odd. It was the bottom of the of the buttock,
very slow, up the buttock to the back, to the
lower back, and I don't have much of an ass
so it was a very straight distance. Well, that's where
Woody's genius comes into play, because most people would go
in the other direction. He starts at the start ass
(01:35:21):
slow and works his way up almost on the back
of my leg. He was so low on the buttock
and then up slowly, slowly, slowly, slowly whack to the
back and then up on the shoulder. We'll never forget
what he consent is king, it is all right, thank you? Whatdy?
There's Woody out there on the leg. I was like,
(01:35:43):
did he just grab my.
Speaker 3 (01:35:47):
Car? Show on one.
Speaker 2 (01:35:53):
Hugely? A wild fire evacuates. You'd prepare for a hurricane.
There's escaping this disaster due.
Speaker 4 (01:36:02):
It's one of the worst disasters that I've seen in
my career.
Speaker 3 (01:36:04):
The Cox Show.
Speaker 2 (01:36:06):
I'm one hundred twenty seven w mm. But she's ald
you to have a walk. She's the kind of default and.
Speaker 3 (01:36:21):
Take to deed.
Speaker 2 (01:36:23):
I'll tell you what, man, but she always goes to face.
She's got stop, she's got face. She's a wean.
Speaker 9 (01:36:31):
Rob.
Speaker 2 (01:36:31):
Do you see who's in here? She's an idea.
Speaker 3 (01:36:34):
Wow.
Speaker 2 (01:36:35):
So good to see her. And people were so excited
when I said that Mary Santora was going to be
back on the show. We both have different hair. I
know you got the red again. We read it went
dark now you used you used to make fun of
the red. It's not the same red. I know you
had like the fire engine red before, back in the
day when you used to make the jokes about it,
(01:36:55):
and I used to call it late for court red.
That was the so that I had. So when I
run into Mary at Mike Polk's wedding. I hadn't seen
her in a minute, and we hug and she goes,
look at you with your George Washington hair. I know
it's long and it's great and got a little curl
(01:37:15):
to it. I know, yes, I was sailing across the
Delaware How are you? I'm so happy birthday? You know.
I don't have anything for you because my default is
to get people bottles of booze, and I can't get
you bottles of booze. You cannot and I'm a terrible
gift giver in general. That's okay. You can just give
me money, money, Hallionaire. I will venmo you five thousand dollars.
(01:37:39):
How about that? You have no idea how much that
would help? Okay? So Mary is back? Because is it
the last couple of years you've been doing the Thanksgiving
weekend at Hilarities and this weekend is no difference at
the Good Hilaries dot Com? Is it the full weekend?
Is it like the Friday Saturday? Just Friday Saturday two
shows per night, four.
Speaker 19 (01:37:57):
Shows yet to Friday two Saturday. Bold times are six
thirty for the early show, nine fifteen for the late show.
Early shows are pretty close to sold out.
Speaker 2 (01:38:05):
You are you? Are you going to hilaris dot com?
You are back and forth now more than you were
before between Ohio and New York.
Speaker 19 (01:38:14):
Yes, okay, yes, I don't know if you knew this
about New York City on it is extremely expensive.
Speaker 20 (01:38:19):
You know.
Speaker 19 (01:38:19):
People told me that when you left, and I didn't
believe them. So you got to live it to really understand. Yes,
you know, And I don't know if you knew this either.
Speaker 11 (01:38:27):
I did.
Speaker 2 (01:38:28):
I did lose my job last year, so wow. Bill
Squire has a story like that. Oh that sucks. Yeah,
so the financial implications have been big. I'm sorry to
hear that this is terrible, this economy, this economy.
Speaker 19 (01:38:43):
You know, what do you head someone or two people
in the room with me to blame them crazy?
Speaker 2 (01:38:48):
But when I see you, it looks like you're killing it.
I mean right, I'm having a great time. I really am.
Speaker 19 (01:38:54):
I ended up because I got pasted at the Comedy
Seller the same week I got fired here. Yes, so
it was like the best and worst week because I
was working.
Speaker 2 (01:39:04):
The Comedy Seller I had.
Speaker 19 (01:39:05):
I'm also at New York Comedy Club and the Sandwich,
like the three mean clubs in New York City.
Speaker 2 (01:39:10):
So I have like all these spots and I'm killing it.
Speaker 19 (01:39:12):
I feel like I followed David Tell and I crushed
and I'm like, I'm the best comedian that's ever lived, right,
and then I.
Speaker 2 (01:39:18):
Got fired here, and it was like, what the hell
is happening? But yeah, comedy is I mean, you were
leaving anyway. Correct, you were leaving anyway.
Speaker 19 (01:39:27):
I'm giving you guys a hard time. You was ving anyway. Yes,
So comedy is incredible.
Speaker 2 (01:39:33):
And well, because I feel like, for a while there,
I'm glad to hear that, because I feel like for
a while you were feeling a little adrift. You were like, man,
I don't know, or am I miss? I thought we
talked about that at the time, and you were like
it was a real up and down, and now it
looks like it's more offen.
Speaker 19 (01:39:48):
Yes, I mean it's I've been there, as you like
to say, I'll be starting my third year New York.
I completed two years, and it just takes a while
for people to know you're around all the time.
Speaker 2 (01:40:00):
You're not just visiting that longer than that. I know,
it doesn't, isn't it.
Speaker 19 (01:40:03):
Yeah, You're like consistently good, that you perform well, you know,
and it just it just takes a minute to kind
of get into the swing. But then once you're in it,
I'm in it. So you know, people ask all the time,
they're like, we are the right move. I'm like one
hundred percent. For my career, it's been incredible. Like for
(01:40:24):
my personal life, I've never been satured.
Speaker 2 (01:40:28):
It's just well, that's why I assume you're you're back
and forth more.
Speaker 19 (01:40:31):
Yeah, because Brian and I are still together, so you've
been together going on six years, still in his daughter's life.
I know everybody was really excited to hear stepmom updates.
That's their favorite thing about me, I think is that
I'm Steven dates, but I'm still in his daughter's life.
So just it's crazy because you don't realize how much
you miss that stuff until it's gone. Like in Cleveland,
(01:40:52):
even obviously I realized I missed my boyfriend and his daughter,
but like the city and Ohio and just the comfort
that with where you're from, and like friends, like real friends,
not coworker friends, not you know, not like comics you
see in passing once every two months.
Speaker 2 (01:41:09):
Like it's just very lonely there.
Speaker 19 (01:41:11):
It's very, very very lonely, even though there's nine hundred
thousand million people there. It's just it's tough. It's a
tough way of life.
Speaker 2 (01:41:19):
Well that's kind of. The more people that you're surrounded by,
the more you can feel isolated from people who aren't
especially doing what you do, which is man. Most of
the people that you want to have conversations with are comedians,
you're like, or other funny people, you know what I mean.
It's a real drag talking and people aren't funny, yes,
And you're like, why am I doing this?
Speaker 18 (01:41:41):
It is?
Speaker 2 (01:41:42):
You know what I mean? It's not it's definitely.
Speaker 19 (01:41:45):
I was feeling very just honestly depressed, just sad and
away from home and away from Brian. I was only
coming home like once every four or five weeks, and
it's just wasn't enough. And it got to the point
where I was like, oh, yeah, you're gonna hate the
city for like five or suits years.
Speaker 2 (01:42:00):
Then you'll never want to live anywhere else. And I'm like, no,
I'm not gonna be miserable until I'm forty. That's crazy. Yeah,
Like what am I trying to prove by hating what?
If I just get past that six year mark of
hating it, then I'll And also, I'm like.
Speaker 19 (01:42:14):
I tell other comics, I'm like, I have people who
love me, like I have a family, yeah.
Speaker 2 (01:42:19):
Waiting for me.
Speaker 19 (01:42:20):
I understand a lot of people who do live there,
they don't have anything else. There are comedies all they have,
and that would be a different story. But I'm like,
there's this whole other half of me. My entire focus
has been on New York for so long. It's been
New York, New York, New York, and then I kind
of forgot how big of a part of my life
the home is.
Speaker 2 (01:42:40):
Just being a being a stepmom in.
Speaker 19 (01:42:42):
A suburb and going to gymnastics meets and having Tuesday
nights with nothing to do on the couch with my boyfriend.
Speaker 2 (01:42:47):
Well, that's a good realization to come to, because some
other people they don't always come to that realization. They go,
you know what this is, I don't need to go
back to the other stuff. So there's that's a good
realization to come to.
Speaker 19 (01:42:58):
I guess and I had to move to have their
realization because I was so not bitter isn't the right word,
but I felt myself slipping closer into like you know,
marriage and buying a house and that kind of stuff
where it was like, if I don't do this, we're
gonna end up divorced.
Speaker 2 (01:43:13):
I'm gonna end up leaving to go to New York. Anyway, Well,
you'd be resentful that you felt like you weren't doing what.
Speaker 19 (01:43:19):
You wanted to do, right, And it's so funny because
I'm like I was telling Brian maybe last summer, maybe
this summer, eighteen months in, and I was like, no
one is more surprised that I hate this than I am.
Speaker 2 (01:43:29):
I am sucked. Yeah, yeah, I am. Yeah.
Speaker 19 (01:43:33):
And so it's just one of those things where it's
like I need my family. I need people in my
life every day, and I need to see them on
more than once every five week basis in order to
just be a happy, well rounded, good person.
Speaker 2 (01:43:48):
Functioning human being. Definitely. So is it pretty evenly back
and forth?
Speaker 3 (01:43:53):
Then?
Speaker 9 (01:43:53):
Yeah.
Speaker 19 (01:43:53):
For the past couple of months, it's been like two
weeks in New York, two weeks home. December and January
are weird with like holiday and stuff, Like.
Speaker 2 (01:44:00):
Probably some whiplash there though, too. I Mean I'm so.
Speaker 19 (01:44:03):
Used to traveling anyway. Yeah, so it's honestly two weeks.
Two weeks is kind of perfect because when I'm out
in New York, I'm hitting. I'm going out every single night.
I'm not burnout. I'm like ready to see people, I'm
ready to hang I'm ready.
Speaker 2 (01:44:15):
To be out. I'm fresh because you know these weeks
are coming.
Speaker 19 (01:44:18):
And then I come home when i'm kind of I'm tired,
I'm over it. I've been out till three in the
morning eleven nights in a row, and then I come
home and I relax and I get to do nothing
and hang out with my boyfriend, has spent time with
the kid, and see my sister and my nieces, and
then by the time they annoy me, it's.
Speaker 2 (01:44:32):
Time to go back to New York. So it's just
like this really really nice balance only fans. Uh no,
oh she got off she got so to speak well.
Speaker 19 (01:44:43):
But yeah, no, she's not doing that anymore. So, Yeah,
she is in a very happy and committed relationship.
Speaker 2 (01:44:49):
Oh good. Yeah, I mean people can do both. They can. Yeah,
are you still selling foot picks? I am. I did
give the email earlier because I was Yeah, San Hortoes
at gmail dot comra yes, because we alluded to it aspire. Yeah,
and then uh and I have them blown up and
(01:45:10):
then you know, but then I was like or Rob
said something like you were he saw something that that
made him think that. We came up and he said,
I said, I think she's still doing it because I
saw the ask me anything. So Friday, Okay, here's a life.
Speaker 19 (01:45:25):
This is an am A on Reddit. Yeah, an a
m a on Instagram, Instagram. Sorry, but big life update.
I flew out to La to finish that movie I
started three years ago.
Speaker 2 (01:45:34):
Yes, I saw your photo and I was like, is
this the same one or a different one?
Speaker 19 (01:45:38):
This is the same movie that I was in, Like
however long ago where I played the big New York
City agent, right remember.
Speaker 2 (01:45:44):
Right agent, and we're they gonna have to cut around
you though.
Speaker 19 (01:45:49):
They were, But then can you ask me up in
September and he's like, Hey, I'm gonna find you guys out.
We're gonna finish this your guys is scene in November,
like so like two and a half months. Notice, I
was like, yo, I am thirty pounds heavier, my hair
is dark red instead of bleach blonde.
Speaker 2 (01:46:04):
It's about six.
Speaker 19 (01:46:05):
Inches longer, Like I can't play the same part, and
he's like, don't worry, we'll work around it.
Speaker 2 (01:46:11):
So he like changed my.
Speaker 19 (01:46:13):
Character to kind of be like because I'm still like
an asient who like closes real estate tales, right, but
I kind of am like a chameleon. So the agency
sends me to different places and then I acclimate to
that culture.
Speaker 2 (01:46:26):
Oh, you're like a spy, like a secret agent by.
Speaker 19 (01:46:28):
Where my identity changes based on what deal I'm trying
to close.
Speaker 2 (01:46:31):
It was a nightmare travel day for you, right, like
this canceled week has been miserable.
Speaker 19 (01:46:37):
Friday, I traveled for twenty two hours to wear from
Cleveland to LA. Oh okay, I went from Cleveland to LA.
I missed a layover in Boston, so they took me
to Charlotte. And then I was in Charlotte for like
three hours.
Speaker 2 (01:46:52):
LA by way of Boston, Cleveland.
Speaker 19 (01:46:55):
LA, Boston or I'm sorry, Cleveland, New York Boston LA.
I was supposed to be, and then it became Cleveland,
New York Charlotte, LA. And then by the time there
were delays and layovers and all that and up being
a twenty two hour travel day.
Speaker 2 (01:47:08):
I have seen maybe not this one in particular, but
I have seen past posts of yours, maybe if you're
doing road gig or something and you're like some of
the airport for the seventeenth hour, and I'm like, boy,
I don't envy you.
Speaker 19 (01:47:19):
Well, and I just I didn't book these flights. The
director booked it, and I get it. He booked it
on Expedia, and it was like, yes, do whatever's cheapest, right,
I need longer than a twenty nine minute layover in Boston.
Like that is why this thingover was missed. We sat taxing,
we were nineteenth in line, like we were on the.
Speaker 2 (01:47:35):
Then there was one that got completely one schedule. He
rescheduled that.
Speaker 19 (01:47:39):
So I ended up on the way back going from
LA to Indianapolis to Washington, DC to New York.
Speaker 2 (01:47:45):
Wow, and that's the one that, like you had, it
was a negative five minutes to make the connection play.
That's another connection.
Speaker 19 (01:47:51):
It was another thirty minute layover, and it's like you
land at six thirty five, your next playing departs at
six thirty.
Speaker 2 (01:47:56):
I was like, hell, yeah, I can't wait. It's gonna
be perfect. I went to Poor Lends to San Francisco
to Boston. But yeah, so we finished that movie. It
was super fun. I mean it was it was.
Speaker 19 (01:48:09):
I mean, we shot all day Saturday, so traveled twenty
two hours Friday, shot the movie all day Saturday, traveled
all day Sunday, and then I got here last night.
Speaker 2 (01:48:19):
Do you go out for other things? Do you book commercials?
Speaker 3 (01:48:22):
Are you?
Speaker 2 (01:48:23):
Yeah?
Speaker 19 (01:48:23):
Oh my god?
Speaker 2 (01:48:24):
Did you have representation?
Speaker 19 (01:48:25):
I haven't been on here in so long, I know.
I posted it on my Instagram when I got a
lot of love. I landed my first national commercial for
Major League Baseball.
Speaker 2 (01:48:33):
M okay. It was for like the MLB talk Shop.
Speaker 19 (01:48:37):
So it was about the gear, tell us what your
your merch means to you and what it means to
be a Guardians fan.
Speaker 2 (01:48:45):
And I was like, so, f oh, this is like
a testimonial type thing. Yes, but you were wearing like that.
You were like what you weren't playing like a Yankee
than no, no, no, no, They cast like real fans.
Speaker 19 (01:48:54):
So I was like wearing Guardians merche and I was
talking about like going to games with my dad when
I was a kid, and like all these things.
Speaker 2 (01:48:59):
It was like a forty five minute interview. The crowd
is cracking up.
Speaker 19 (01:49:02):
Everybody's laughing, like the you know, producers and things like that,
I'm killing in this interview, okay, and I'm like, this
is this is incredible. It's gonna be so good for
my commercial reel. It's my first national one. I'm so
excited they get the editor. You must not have seen this, brother,
I am in it for a half a second, Like
they literally cut me down to just looking down at
my shirt and opening the jersey and that's it, really
(01:49:24):
a half a second at the very very end.
Speaker 2 (01:49:27):
Of the Yeah, you watching it and having the reaction video,
that was the funniest thing I've seen so long. I
was crying.
Speaker 7 (01:49:35):
I was laughing.
Speaker 2 (01:49:36):
Posted to my.
Speaker 10 (01:49:37):
Story Alan it was so good, dude. She just she's
like it's her reaction to seeing the finals.
Speaker 19 (01:49:42):
It was the first time I had seen it because
they send us an email and they're like, congratulations, you
make because they paid us. I think they paid us
one thousand dollars to do it. Commercial acting pays very
like minimum. Yeah, so they pay you one thousand dollars
just to shoot it, and then you get another thousand
dollars if you make it into the final cut. So
then they go, hey, congrat relations you made into the
final cut. We'll send out your second payment, and I'm like,
(01:50:03):
money in this is incredible.
Speaker 2 (01:50:05):
And then me and Brian are laying in bed watching
it and we're like, when am I going to show up?
And I'm watching I'm watching it. You had lines.
Speaker 19 (01:50:12):
I had so many of you it was like a
fort And then they do the jersey and Brian goes,
how's it.
Speaker 2 (01:50:20):
I'm I just got what I said.
Speaker 19 (01:50:23):
I know, I'm crost tears are streaming down my face,
I'm laughing so hard, and.
Speaker 2 (01:50:27):
I was like, this is my Mike Wazowski moment, like
in Monsters and when he's like under the bar code. Yeah,
that's exactly what it was. Well, it's like what if
they you know, if you sell a script, right, if
they never make the movie, you still got paid. Yeah, exactly.
You'd like to see more than half a second of
you looking at your jersey.
Speaker 19 (01:50:43):
But Brian was like he didn't really know how to
react because he was like, oh, no, she is, she
gonna be upset.
Speaker 2 (01:50:48):
Then like all her.
Speaker 19 (01:50:49):
Lines got cut, and I was just like, this is
the funniest thing that's ever happened. Of course it is like,
of course, this is how major League Baseball things about
the guardians you know.
Speaker 11 (01:50:56):
And what it is.
Speaker 19 (01:50:58):
They also only had they you send in your sizes,
not just like women's large, like my bust, my waist,
my hips. I sent in all of my measurements. They
had one extra small T shirt. I am a double
d Okay, even if I were thinner, there's no reality
where I fit into an extra small T shirt.
Speaker 2 (01:51:17):
Okay. So they had one extra no jersey, and then
they didn't.
Speaker 19 (01:51:22):
Approve any of the Guardian's gear I brought because it
wasn't MLB like license.
Speaker 2 (01:51:28):
It was stuff like from free.
Speaker 19 (01:51:29):
Give ways or with WMMS logos on it. So they
had to overnight a jersey so I had something to
wear in the commercial and the freaking Yankees. They had slippers,
they had outfit changes. They gave him two different I
understand that they gave him two different jersey choices. They
gave him a robe and slippers. They gave him like
(01:51:50):
four different T shirt choices, and I had one shirt
in the wrong side.
Speaker 2 (01:51:55):
Did the package arrived for steerage, Yeah right, I'm like,
what to give you a Guardian's band figure out cut?
Speaker 11 (01:52:02):
Anyway?
Speaker 2 (01:52:03):
Yeah, you got paid. I did get paid. It's good
if you played a white sox fan in that comment,
Oh my god, shut up, Rob. Even worse, Alan, I
wish I had a chance to come see Mary out
this weekend, but I can't. What is currently the best
way to support her career? Oh my gosh, you can
vemo me at Mary Santoria.
Speaker 19 (01:52:25):
I'm doing pretty well on socials in the past two
years too, So if you just want to follow me
at Mary Santora Comedy, that's TikTok, Instagram or Facebook. Yeah,
I'm up to almost two hundred thousand on Facebook, one
hundred and thirty four on Instagram, and one hundred and
eighty on TikTok, so I've got like over half a
million across.
Speaker 2 (01:52:42):
Are you and your roommates still doing your You guys
are doing a podcast. For a minute, we were.
Speaker 19 (01:52:45):
Doing a podcast, and then with the amount I've been
traveling and everything like that, and then she she picked.
Speaker 2 (01:52:49):
Up a second job.
Speaker 19 (01:52:50):
Okay, so she had a job and comedy, and then
she just recently picked up a second job. So if
we were to still do it, we would have to
record like four or five episodes every week that I
was there to bank them.
Speaker 2 (01:53:02):
So we did take a little break from that until
things make he's from Indianapolis. Yes, yeah, so you're going
up every night then when you're in New York. Yeah, Well,
which is actually kind of nice because when I was.
Speaker 19 (01:53:13):
There for the full month and I get it, like
I said, I had to get I had to get
into the flow of things and everything like that too.
It was maybe let's say fifteen spots a month.
Speaker 2 (01:53:23):
Yeah.
Speaker 19 (01:53:23):
Now I get those same fifteen spots in two weeks,
so I'm still getting the same amount of time, but
in a shorter period. So I am out every single
night working and it just makes me feel so much more.
Speaker 2 (01:53:37):
There's a momentum there, there's more momentum, and it just
every set feels like it matters. Yeah. Sure, and you're
in a better spot in the lineup too.
Speaker 19 (01:53:44):
Well, the lineups are all kind of everybody goes anywhere.
But I'm in a better mental space. I'm in a
better headspace. So if I have like no shows all
week and then I have a Friday one thirty am
spot and that's my only show that week, I'm pissed off.
Speaker 2 (01:53:59):
I'm in a bad mood. I'm not in a good
headspace to go up because I'm tired. Oh they're tired.
And drunk, and then I don't do well.
Speaker 19 (01:54:05):
Whereas now when I come in it's still a one
thirty am Friday spot. But I'm like, yeah, I haven't
been here.
Speaker 2 (01:54:11):
Too, your screen, your wheels.
Speaker 19 (01:54:13):
I haven't seen any of the comics. I'm ready to
see their new jokes and for them to see mine.
And it's you know, it's just it's just much better
for me, as like Mary santor the human being.
Speaker 2 (01:54:22):
You know, do you want to hang out for a
minute or do you need to go? Okay, go all right,
Allen Carr Show on.
Speaker 8 (01:54:28):
One hundred point seven, call the Alan Cox Show.
Speaker 2 (01:54:34):
Because he's my best friend.
Speaker 1 (01:54:35):
He's my pow, he's my homeboy, my rotten soldier, he's
my sweet cheese, my good time boy.
Speaker 9 (01:54:41):
Do you want six five seven eight one double oh
seven or one eight three four eighty one double oh seven.
Speaker 2 (01:55:04):
Mary Santora is back in the Friendly Confines. Today is
her birthday. Yeah, she is younger than my sister, which
still blows my mind, but there it is. How old
are you today? Thirty six? Look at you? Gust thirty two? Hey,
I did you're gonna say? She's doing the weekend at Hilarities,
(01:55:29):
which she's been doing the past couple of years. Thanksgiving weekend,
you come in, they put your mug up on the
Marquee and two shows Friday, two shows Saturday. Those early
shows are close to being sold out, but.
Speaker 19 (01:55:46):
You can't still get them show. But there's more availability
on the show.
Speaker 2 (01:55:49):
Pure for the early ones. Yeah, so go to hilarities
dot com for the details. In the break here, we're
watching Mary's major league Facebook commercial debut. So good. I
don't know how I missed that because I usually see
the stuff of you post. It was in July. I
posted it. Yeah, well that's what I was saying. I
was like, no, it was for the playoffs.
Speaker 19 (01:56:09):
I'm gonna put it on my story at Mary Santora
Comedy and then you guys can check it out if
you missed it too.
Speaker 2 (01:56:14):
But I mean, it's just when what are you gonna do?
Am I gonna get mad at? Like I can't change it? No,
I understand, but still it's like the editing is all
about choices and whoever edited that, you know, I'm like
the Marlins guy has a couple of lines in there right.
Speaker 10 (01:56:31):
From the Pirates talk about wearing a hat to a prom,
taking his cat oh, his cat.
Speaker 2 (01:56:37):
I think he said, wearing this cap, I took my cat. No,
I think he said I took this cap to my prom.
I thought he said I. Could you imagine if he
said cat and that got in and not. I was
so confused. I really do think he said cat. This
(01:56:57):
guy and his cat beat me out of this goddamn commercial.
Give him that hat. Maybe he was I don't know.
I assumed he said cap because it's a major League
Baseball commercial and he was kind of saging the brim
He says, don't make fun of me. But I thought
he said I took my cat to my feeling like,
(01:57:21):
I feel like the guy wouldn't take his cat. I
don't know. Repo John says he's a Repo guy. I
infer that from the name. I always listen to my truck,
but I'm off on Tuesdays, but I'm listening today because
Mary's back on the show day. I am very exciting.
I miss it.
Speaker 19 (01:57:40):
I missed being here, man, I know, right, you last
me all the time, Like, do you miss it? I'm
like way more than I.
Speaker 2 (01:57:44):
Thought I would. Well, that's the weird thing we were
talking about this before in the break is it's such
a grind that a lot of people don't understand, and
it was becoming increasingly just not feasible for you to
do it. And it's one of those things where it's like,
you know, we're getting ready to do our break at
the end of the year here, and my I'm always like,
three weeks is too much. Like two weeks, you know
(01:58:05):
what I mean? Three weeks it's a long time. Yeah,
And I don't have hobbies, right, So it's like when
you're in it every day, you're like, like the end
of the year, I'm just fried well, But then every
day it's like there's an immediacy to it.
Speaker 19 (01:58:17):
And I'm not going to say directly, I was so
depressed about losing my job that I gained weight, but
I didn't have a reason to leave the house anymore.
Speaker 2 (01:58:24):
Was that true? So you were just going and doing
spots at night and during the day your day, I.
Speaker 19 (01:58:30):
Wasn't doing anything because I'm like, it is such a
pain in the ass to go into Manhattan twice under
s because it takes an hour from where I live
forty something minutes, and so that you got to that's
an hour and a half round trip.
Speaker 2 (01:58:42):
You're still in the story of stilling a story of queens.
But you're not going to like crossfiting queens or anything
like that. Nothing like that.
Speaker 19 (01:58:47):
But what I'm saying is that it's like I was
so exhausted from leaving my house at eleven am and
not getting back until two in the morning for a
year basically being on the show, being on the show,
that when I lost that show, I was like, screw this,
I'm not going into the city unless I have to.
And then that very quickly turned into depression where it's like, oh,
I don't have to be anywhere until eleven pm on Wednesday.
Speaker 2 (01:59:11):
I'll sit in this house. Those are also long days
of not doing anything correct. It's like there was no
happy medium, right.
Speaker 9 (01:59:18):
Yeah.
Speaker 19 (01:59:19):
It wasn't like I would go into the city at
three pm or at six pm and be in the
city from six until two am. Now it was like, oh,
now I'm only going into the city for shows, right,
So I like, I'm really.
Speaker 2 (01:59:32):
Getting back at three in the morning.
Speaker 18 (01:59:33):
Yes.
Speaker 3 (01:59:34):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (01:59:34):
I just was like, this is my first time being
a full time stand up comic.
Speaker 19 (01:59:38):
Yeah, it's the first time I started watching TV again
and watching like movies at home and stuff that came
out and catching up on series because I'm like, oh,
I really got nothing going d Have you ever.
Speaker 2 (01:59:51):
Met somebody whose favorite movie was, let's say, Paul Blart
Mall Cop. That's my favorite movie. Oh really long time?
Speaker 20 (01:59:57):
Oh hey, look at that hood act too, ye back
in the habit like the sister, Yeah, sister, I.
Speaker 19 (02:00:08):
Was listening to that segment on my way in and
Dumb and Dumber and Young frank Consenter.
Speaker 2 (02:00:12):
I know, Dumb and Dumbers. Yes, Young Frankenstein's so good,
and it's so good when you're going through that list,
you know what. I was shocked that wasn't on.
Speaker 19 (02:00:18):
There was any of those two thousands bro movies which
shaped my sense of humor, like forty year Old Virgin,
Knocked Up Anchorman, Wedding Crashers, the Hangover, Like, yeah, these
are all so funny.
Speaker 2 (02:00:29):
I mean, we didn't get past thirty, right, I didn't
go through the whole list, So I bet at least
one or two of those. I bet forty year old
virgins on their wedding crashers always jumped out at me
for whatever reason. I used to joke that it was
Caddy Shack for chicks, because the only people I ever
heard quote wedding crashers were girls. I never heard they're
very high. It was like twenty something, yeah, okay, twenty
(02:00:52):
four maybe, yeah, those were like those. When I think
of like class, I guess not like nineties class or
like liar liar, Yeah, that was growing up ninety seven.
I think the Austin Powers movies, like, I bet those
are all on there though. Yeah, I mean that was
like peak. Jim Carrey's put.
Speaker 19 (02:01:08):
Something from nineteen thirty nine in second place or whatever.
Speaker 2 (02:01:12):
It's like, get over yourself. That one was twenty four.
You're like, no one reading this was even alive then
to watch these and nobody's watching them now they're not.
No one's streaming duck soup all. They'll be more texting me.
They're like, Alan, you would like those movies now. I
don't know if they mean because I'm old or because
I have terrible taste in movies. I have great taste
in movies.
Speaker 19 (02:01:32):
I stopped taking movie advice from years ago, horror movie advice,
because anytime you suggested one, I'm like, these are the worst.
Speaker 2 (02:01:38):
Movies I've ever seen. You did like my horror movie.
Speaker 19 (02:01:41):
You suggested that one where the priests and then gives
the devil a.
Speaker 2 (02:01:45):
Base long of Solomon. Yes, we're watching this.
Speaker 19 (02:01:48):
There's like a no joke, probably four minutes sex scene
between a possessed demon priest and his person.
Speaker 2 (02:01:56):
He's trying to exercise. People to watch it, people, the
worst thing seen. People listening right now are like, I
had yet to hear anything bad. I gotta watch this
right now, A song of Solomon. Know what I did
watch yesterday for the first time ever? Predator? The Original Predator?
Original Predator? Did you like it pretty? It's pretty dumb.
It's pretty dumb, yes, but it's fun.
Speaker 19 (02:02:16):
The last forty five minutes where it's uh, Arnold is
basically home aloning the Predator and like setting up those traps.
Speaker 2 (02:02:24):
Yes, I was dying. I was like, this is Kevin
McCaw's like that's where they had They say they didn't mind. Yeah,
he's like setting up the little stick traps and stuff.
Speaker 9 (02:02:31):
No.
Speaker 2 (02:02:32):
I like when Carl Weathers gets his arm lasered off
but it keeps firing the gun. I'm like, that wouldn't
eat what That movie is pretty crazy? Yeah, it's but
it's on a lot. You probably caught it because it
happened to be on television.
Speaker 3 (02:02:46):
No, we were.
Speaker 2 (02:02:46):
Scrolling last night.
Speaker 19 (02:02:47):
I got home and I was like, I want to
watch a movie and we're just like scrolling through and
Brian's that's one of Brian's favorite movies, Predator.
Speaker 2 (02:02:54):
I was like, I've never seen it. He goes what
we watch it and Brian is.
Speaker 19 (02:02:57):
Notorious for passing out ten minutes into any film. Okay,
we started at ten thirty this idiot state up until
twelve am watching Predator, like you've never seen it before.
Speaker 2 (02:03:08):
So it's fun. It was fun as the big hole
blown through the yeah, see through, I got time to bleed.
But we have a huge drop off with Predator too.
By the way, with Gary Busey and Danny Glover.
Speaker 19 (02:03:18):
I've heard so many of those uh sound clips before.
Speaker 2 (02:03:23):
I didn't know that's what Get to the Chopper was from.
Speaker 19 (02:03:27):
And then when he pulls his mask off and he's
you ugly mo, I was like, but there's so many
of those little it's fun.
Speaker 2 (02:03:34):
Yeah, Predator's fun, and it's like a whole franchise with
all those. They got another one company of them. Yeah, Alien, Predator, Alien,
there's one with el Fanning that's out. It was fun.
I liked that movie. Allan is David Lee Roth going
to see Mary this week in a hilarious Yes. He's
a huge, huge Marry Santora fan. A lot of people
are asking if you still do road gigs.
Speaker 19 (02:03:56):
So with splitting the time, I'm picking them back up.
So obviously this and now and then the weekend of Christmas,
I'll be in Albany, New York at the Funny Bone
in Albany the Capitol.
Speaker 2 (02:04:08):
The Capitol is New York. Yeah, Brian has that Saturday
off after Christmas, and I was like, you come to Albany.
He's like, no, in November.
Speaker 19 (02:04:19):
In December, I'm all right, and then I'll be in
Cincinnati at Go Bananas in February, I think.
Speaker 2 (02:04:25):
And so I have like one a month for the
next couple months.
Speaker 19 (02:04:28):
I wouldn't go back to I was like three weeks
a month on the road unless I were to move
home full time, which I think we decided I'm going
to be doing this on time until at least April
when the lease is up.
Speaker 2 (02:04:41):
Do you do any Squire shows while you're here.
Speaker 19 (02:04:44):
Yeah, I've popped in on a couple of them, but
it's usually like the second half of the trip home.
Speaker 2 (02:04:50):
So I can kind of get back in the groove
of before I go back to New York. So your
lease is up in April, and queens what will happen?
Speaker 18 (02:04:57):
Then?
Speaker 19 (02:04:57):
Well, that's what we talked about. My roommate and I
were talking about it, where she's not really happy. She's like,
I'm working two day jobs. I'm not getting like she
has actually astonished how much I hate New York because
I do get really good spody.
Speaker 2 (02:05:09):
Well, this is what I was going to ask. Is
it weird she's getting fewer spots, She's.
Speaker 19 (02:05:12):
Getting fewer spots, and she's getting them at not as
good of places.
Speaker 2 (02:05:16):
Is this creating any friction with you guys?
Speaker 7 (02:05:18):
Or just is what it is?
Speaker 2 (02:05:19):
It's also she's only but she's doing a half the
amount of time I have.
Speaker 19 (02:05:22):
She's only been like seven or eight years, and I'm
going on fourteen, you know what I mean.
Speaker 2 (02:05:26):
So when you're in New York, you want to write,
And that's what she's saying. She's like, I have two
day jobs and I'm doing essentially open mics. Like what
am I doing here?
Speaker 3 (02:05:35):
You know?
Speaker 19 (02:05:35):
And so we've had that conversation a couple of times,
and she's, you know, she's a good Midwestern person.
Speaker 2 (02:05:40):
She's a good human being. She said, well, if I move,
what are you going to do? I'm like, I'll figure
it out. So it would be so her going back
to Indianapolis is no.
Speaker 19 (02:05:48):
Okay, she wants to move, yet she's like still kind
of you know, let's feel it out, let's see what's
going to happen. She's thinking like Miami because she works
as a fitness trainer for Quinnox, which is like a
really feency expensive gym, and they have one in Miami.
So she's like, I could transfer, i could have a
day job. She likes the sun like, she's like anything
(02:06:09):
under fifty degrees is freezing.
Speaker 2 (02:06:12):
I'm in Chicago too, she wouldn't want to go there. No,
Chicago would be a step backwards. She's like, I need
to be somewhere warmer.
Speaker 19 (02:06:17):
So she was thinking like Nashville or Austin or Miami
or somebody need to.
Speaker 2 (02:06:21):
Be somewhere warm, like Tennessee. I said, this snow's there. Yeah, yeah,
it's the mountains, but we're not sure.
Speaker 19 (02:06:29):
So that would be like this split time thing is
definitely gonna gonna be going.
Speaker 2 (02:06:33):
Into the well. Then this would be her giving up
stand up or trying to do it in Miami. I mean,
Florida has a ton of clubs. They have a lot
of comedy. I know they do, but it's not New York. No,
it's not New York. So it would be it's a
scene in Orlando and there's someone Lama Tampa.
Speaker 19 (02:06:52):
I mean even Key West and like Fort Myers and
Boca Ratone, Like, there are a lot of comedy clubs
in Florida.
Speaker 2 (02:06:57):
And so she was like, I could just get in
a rotation and have, you know, three or four months
of work, a lot of driving. It's a lot of drives,
driving everywhere. When you're from the Midwest, you're used to it,
you know.
Speaker 19 (02:07:08):
So she's not sure yet, But so the split time
thing would definitely be until April and then we'll go
from there. So it might be you living by yourself,
or you'd have a new roommate, or I would do
like kind of what I'm doing, but not as often.
I wouldn't go back every single month for two weeks.
Maybe I'd go back for a month every three months
and like either get an airbnb or the hotel for
(02:07:30):
two weeks or something here. If I didn't have a
steady place to stay, yeah, because I can't afford to
have a place out there.
Speaker 2 (02:07:36):
But no, I understand, I just I mean it's just unreal. Yeah,
even in Queens anywhere.
Speaker 19 (02:07:41):
Yeah, I mean you're talking minimum one bedroom or studio
is two grand and it's terrible.
Speaker 2 (02:07:46):
And back in the day, you could live on the Island,
you could live in Manhattan, just find some gross place,
but you could swing it for it's not even remotely possible.
Speaker 19 (02:07:59):
Now to rent a room in an apartment is like
still like eleven hundred dollars. Yeah, it's it's really really insane.
But mom Donnie is saying, putting a price cap on
rent out there.
Speaker 2 (02:08:10):
Oh he's your new mayor. H you guys, it not
made it to Ohio. Well no, I mean we uh
socialism that's taking over America. Socialism.
Speaker 19 (02:08:19):
My brothers were very upset about a Muslim getting elected
in a state they don't live in.
Speaker 2 (02:08:23):
How did they take it? How did they take it
when Trump invited them into the White House?
Speaker 19 (02:08:26):
But I don't think my I can't wait to see
my brothers tomorrow because for those of you who.
Speaker 2 (02:08:30):
Don't, do they care who the mayor of New York is?
Brother like your socialism. I actually can. Yeah, I'm a
poor person. I'm a big fan of socialism.
Speaker 19 (02:08:38):
I don't you know that, But I can't wait to
see what they have to say for themselves on Thursday.
Speaker 2 (02:08:44):
Well then Trump that night was dressed like a beat
Nick poet. Like it got weird, like after that whole
New York thing, it was. Well, I like the meme
that's going around already that zoon Mumdanie is going to
introduce Arabic numbers to school. Brother, we use nu stories.
Speaker 19 (02:09:01):
Those are just.
Speaker 2 (02:09:07):
Have you seen these Arabic numbers? Yeah, one, two, three, four,
five American numbers, sorry, American numbers, Like yeah, did you
guys not know that math is the same in every language, Yeah,
universal language, literally exactly. Even when we're trying to contact Aliens,
we use numbers, right.
Speaker 19 (02:09:24):
Oh god, So yeah, I haven't had I've just been
ignoring them for two years. And as it's been unfolding,
and after I had my meltdown on social media, I
just am like, you know what, I'm taking a step back.
I don't want to have anything to do with politics anymore.
Speaker 2 (02:09:39):
You had all meltdown on social media or one inauguration?
Oh yeah, okay I was still on the show. No,
I wasn't. Yeah, I reached out to check on you
make sure.
Speaker 19 (02:09:50):
I got like seven phone calls that day because I
was cussing out and calling out people by name, like
other comics, and everyone's like, dude, you got it.
Speaker 2 (02:09:57):
Oh I remember that. Yeah, I remember that.
Speaker 19 (02:10:00):
And I'm so mad that I took it down because
I called out Andrew Schultz, Joe Rogan and theovon and
now who is peddling backwards? Who was back pedaling on
their support of Trump that I called out last January.
Speaker 2 (02:10:11):
I really I always feel really ambivalent about that kind
of stuff because I'm kind of like, yes, those guys
all kind of pushed one thing, but there's a lot
of kind of tender headed people out there that depending
on which direction they're going to go, it's not like
anybody who can go well, those guys handed it to Trump.
(02:10:32):
Was a lot of dummies, men who are just like
whether or not they're listening to they're plenty of magot
people who don't listen to Joe Rogan.
Speaker 19 (02:10:38):
Sor but there's all I think that there's more non
voters who listen to those three men in particular. Oh,
maybe age is eighteen to twenty five males who would
love to have the same political views as Andrew Schultz,
who would like to think, oh, I'm just like Andrew,
I'm I agree with him on everything, even if they
don't vote, but they will now that Trump has been
(02:10:59):
on their favorite podcast. I think that those three guys
had a lot more influence than even they knew that
they had. Yeah, and then they realized what was happening,
and now they're trying to be like, well, this isn't
what I voted for. I was like, you literally said
all of this.
Speaker 2 (02:11:11):
I've never well, yeah, anybody who was paying attention for
the past thirty years would know that the jig was up.
I've never heard any of those people, like there are
billboards around Northeast Ohio that Tim Poole has bought this
guy Tim Poole who does a show or whatever on
some app I don't know what it is, but these
are very popular. I've never heard one episode of any
(02:11:31):
of those shows. So, but it's become shorthand everybody knows
what you're talking about when you're talking about those shows.
But yeah, I do remember you posting that I flipped
out my manager was like, you got to take this
down my family, because because you were calling people out
by name, I was calling people out.
Speaker 19 (02:11:46):
And I was very heated because that was the day
that Elon threw up the sigile twice.
Speaker 2 (02:11:51):
Yeah, and I was like, he's all tis sick.
Speaker 19 (02:11:53):
But also you couldn't have been alone in that sentiment.
One who said anything at that point. Nobody know, other
comics had said anything. And I had a long talk
and I was very I mean, I don't know if
you've met me. I'm a pretty stubborn guy. And I
was like, I don't want to take it down. This
is how I feel. I feel really strongly about it.
And then sure enough, as the year has gone on, I'm.
Speaker 2 (02:12:14):
Like, okay, so you took it down at the behest
of your manager and my family. My sam called me
and she was like, hey, because of your brothers.
Speaker 9 (02:12:22):
No.
Speaker 19 (02:12:22):
My sister called me, is like, listen, man, I know
you're you're having a bad time right now, but maybe
we keep our bed times off the internet.
Speaker 2 (02:12:28):
And I'm like, no, why though that's what I said.
I was like, why do I way worse stuff? I mean,
it goes without saying that, there's way worse inflammatory stuff
than somebody having a genuine problem with the outcome of something.
Now now poor tends not great stuff.
Speaker 19 (02:12:44):
Here is what hold the trigger. It wasn't my management,
it wasn't you know whatever. It was people starting to
get people do not follow me. I had like almost
twenty thousand comments on that of people saying incredibly personal
things that they should not know and threatening members of
my family and bringing up, oh so this person works here,
(02:13:06):
what if I paid them.
Speaker 2 (02:13:08):
Like getting docs like crazy.
Speaker 19 (02:13:11):
Followers just saying like pulling up not voting records, but
like if you've ever voted your you know, your stuff's
on the internet. And so people were like dming me
my family member's addresses, well, and that's the real and
it's like that's when I was like.
Speaker 2 (02:13:27):
It's not worth it. This is not worth it.
Speaker 19 (02:13:29):
I'll take it down whatever the damage is done. I
said what I needed to say, but I didn't want
it to go any further than that and then have
that on my shoulders because I popped off on the
internet and that.
Speaker 2 (02:13:39):
They would do anything.
Speaker 4 (02:13:40):
No.
Speaker 2 (02:13:40):
But the problem is it's never the people who are
following you, No, it's the people who they've never interacted
with you. Before, and it doesn't matter who you are,
it's what you're saying. And anybody else who was saying that,
you know, you'll never find thinner skin than one of
these magas snowflakes. So it's like that's crazy. Yeah, that's
when I was obviously it's.
Speaker 4 (02:14:00):
Not worth it.
Speaker 2 (02:14:01):
Well, that's exactly what it was. Was like, you know what,
I made my point.
Speaker 19 (02:14:03):
This has three million views and twenty thousand comments, and
I made my point.
Speaker 2 (02:14:07):
And it's it is.
Speaker 19 (02:14:08):
Even though maybe these people, if they're unhinged enough to
find the information and send it to me, I don't
put it past them to send a crazy letter to
a relative of mine in the man, you know, or.
Speaker 2 (02:14:18):
Whatever it might be. So I said, you know, what
is not worth it, I'll take its own hell. And
I just looked up that movie Song of Solomon. I
worked with the lead actress a long time ago on
a short film in college. She's originally from the Canton area.
See Dreams Can Come True's dream Can Come True. I'm
(02:14:40):
just looking at these texts real quick. Uh, Mary's saying
in New York for good? Are you coming home to
be with?
Speaker 3 (02:14:45):
Well?
Speaker 2 (02:14:46):
She spent her time for the future. It's working really
well for everybody. Mary's roommate would be best suited for Tampa,
if you know what I mean.
Speaker 4 (02:14:54):
I do not.
Speaker 2 (02:14:57):
It sounds like they say she could be a stripper.
Are there a lot of strippers in Tampa? Oh yeah,
oh yes in Tampa. I' that's kind of shorthand for
I assume that's what they mean. She's hot. I've seen
her one time. I don't know that I would have
been like, oh, stripper, No, she's not. I wouldn't give
her a stripper. But she's like fit and tiny. Yeah,
(02:15:19):
I know she's a stripper. I wouldn't say that. No,
we gotta go. Happy birthdays. Great to see you. You
said that my birthday present was that this is my show. Now, Yes,
that's what I heard. Well, Mary, Santaora than fired.
Speaker 18 (02:15:34):
It's just.
Speaker 2 (02:15:36):
It came down from the top. What's good for the ghost,
it's good for the gander.
Speaker 3 (02:15:42):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (02:15:42):
But thank you guys so much.
Speaker 19 (02:15:43):
It has been amazing being on I I've loved hanging
out anytime.
Speaker 2 (02:15:47):
Open door policy. Yeah, come out to Hilarities this weekend.
Hilarities this weekend, two shows Friday and Saturday, Mary's Homecoming Weekend.
They're at hilarities, Mary Santora Comedy and your social media
accounts and Santora toes and female dot Com for those footpas,
they're still there. Alan Cox Show, on one of it.
Speaker 8 (02:16:12):
You know, you think this guy's gonna do one thing,
then me does another thing, then a third thing happens, and.
Speaker 9 (02:16:20):
It's a bummer because you can't just wanting to keep
doing that middle thing.
Speaker 2 (02:16:25):
It's all very frustrating. The Allan Cox Show.
Speaker 3 (02:16:29):
W U m ms.
Speaker 2 (02:16:38):
Oh, you know you were mad that I wasn't watching
(02:17:02):
the Royal You were disappointed rob thus far that I
hadn't watched the Gordon Lightfoot documentary. Yes, because it's short
and it's called sundown. So I have to imagine that
you'll be even more upset to learn that I actually
did watch the documentary on these guys. Did you really? Yeah,
I'd have to come up with this whole one. Who
(02:17:24):
the hell? Uh Yellow Yellow why Yello? Yes, two dudes
from Switzerland. They were kind of like, well, they were
just like an electronic duo, right. They predated bands like Sparks.
They predated obviously, bands like Daft Punk and things like that.
These two dudes. This song blew up. It's called oh Yeah.
(02:17:47):
It's probably the only song that they're really known for.
It wasn't Ferris Bueller, That's why it blew up yeah
and been used in just so many things and became
kind of an instant pop classic there in the A
Chick at Your Car over the end credits, right when
Ed Rooney is broken and beaten and forced Rob to
(02:18:09):
ride the bus with all the kids, and so they
had this going over the end credits of Ferris Bueller's
Day Off. The band was called Yellow, and they would
also play every time duff Man came on the screen
on The Simpsons Man Who's Here's a party Hank's area doing.
Duff Man, of course, was on South Park and always
(02:18:30):
sunny in Philadelphia and so so pervasive that these guys
really didn't need another big hit. And in hindsight, they
really should have kept that guy away from children on buses. Indeed, right,
it started with a couple of dudes, and then then
one guy split and they replace him with another guy,
I think. But Yellow was the band, and there is
(02:18:51):
a documentary on them on the Documentary channel or something
like that. Rolling Stones YouTube channel has it as well,
and I watched it run. It was a perfect thing
to not watch prior to watching the Gordon Lightfoot document
(02:19:14):
not watch it. Yeah, yep, I thought you were playing
that because Mary was here. No wonder if Jess has
ever seen Ferris Bueller's Day Off. Jess, Yes, I've seen.
Well you have all right? Good? It is good that
he is. Yeah, yes, what a guy, what a dude.
(02:19:37):
He's been on the show, and that that Charlie documentary
was talking about how he got called in for like
one day's work and everybody noticed him there in the
Ferris Bueller film, but that was really before he had
kind of blown up. Anyway. The two guy I don't
even know if these guys are still alive. They're in
their eighties. Uh d Tamaya and Bontis Blanc from the
(02:20:01):
Swiss and then I guess maybe it started out as
three guys, but it continued as two and again they
did have a lot of other songs, but people just remember,
oh yeah, and they're very avant garde, if you will.
But that song was used a lot. It was in
(02:20:22):
Uncle Buck, it was in the Secret of My Success
with it's when he walks away with the with the drill. Yeah,
used in a lot of you know, and they would
take samples from films and throw them in their songs
as well. And they were kind of notable at the
(02:20:42):
time too, where they weren't using samples from other people's
music they were playing there there was a kind of
a craft work quality to them. I guess, uh, let
me talk to Ricardo. Hello, Ricardo, Hey, how are you man?
Speaker 3 (02:20:58):
Doing well? Well?
Speaker 9 (02:21:02):
All right?
Speaker 2 (02:21:03):
Guys?
Speaker 6 (02:21:04):
Hey, hey, now my can just just yeah, it was

Speaker 18 (02:21:15):
I guess if you're.
Speaker 6 (02:21:16):
Giving you a call with the whole Latino Burwell country
fact of how movies are right to us growing up
and and and and oh clearly is out with the
beauty is in the eyes of beholder, right, Rob, I mean,
this is everybody's gonna have a different view of things.
And to us was like a delay think about it, right,
(02:21:40):
So things about here didn't didn't make it to the
movies right on time. It's like, you know, saving part
of Ryan was being also at the same time kind
of scenario, right, But but we we did have a
so a patriarch kind of scenario leaving and then my
dad will show up with a Beta Max tape that
he got from our local you know, video store that
(02:22:04):
had no name or nothing, partly bootlegged if you will,
and you were stock watching.
Speaker 18 (02:22:10):
Uh, I don't know.
Speaker 6 (02:22:12):
Eight to five perhaps Springs of Bell.
Speaker 9 (02:22:17):
Is it.
Speaker 2 (02:22:20):
Five? Yeah? I eight to five was the prequel that
was when they first got the jobs and they really
enjoyed them. And it was a less enjoyable movie. I'm
gonna say he said it was. It could have been
eight to five, just a different bood version. Yes, it
had Bali Parton in it.
Speaker 6 (02:22:36):
Yes, you know, it's like and then the next one
is like you're like Poulter Gates and you're like five, yeah,
it's horrible.
Speaker 2 (02:22:51):
It was.
Speaker 6 (02:22:52):
It was horrible, but you were expressed to it. But
but Toaz growing up, I think I speak in number
seventy seven job, right, so where.
Speaker 2 (02:23:01):
We're on the same age, you know. Yeah, so.
Speaker 6 (02:23:06):
A big old star Wars that those those massive uh.
And then and then we had like the whole Ghostbusters thing,
and then.
Speaker 4 (02:23:17):
It came the the.
Speaker 6 (02:23:20):
Inclusion of like Casa Blanca and so on, like you know,
it was basically like, oh, this is the Mexican. The
Mexican stinamn a cinematography.
Speaker 18 (02:23:33):
Is big, Like there's some really big movies a country,
to be honest with you, Spain as well, and you know,
all over the world, but none.
Speaker 6 (02:23:46):
English speaking.
Speaker 2 (02:23:47):
If it was, it's pretty big. Ricardo Ricardo's dad brought
Ghostbusters home on Beta Max in nineteen ninety six. Yeah,
how far delayed was it? Ricardo? Was it like a
couple of years?
Speaker 6 (02:24:00):
It was so kind of fuzzy there, but you didn't
you didn't know what you were getting because it's a
us were choosers, you know, beggars can be choosers, right like,
so so it was kind of like whatever they thought
it was good. I mean Hamburger Hill in Hamburger Academy
and right next to it, I was like, oh, what
(02:24:22):
is death of like really true story happening? And I
was kicks with Boots right like yeah, saying like it
was just horrible, but you know, the lover boy shows up, right,
and then then you have h what was a good
morning Vietnam to be this is an amazing movie, right,
(02:24:43):
And going back to the the Beholder, guys, right, it's
so much out of there that changed your life and
had an impact, had created us, right, individuals have these conversations,
even me being going back to your question, Rob, Uh,
(02:25:05):
you know, I would say probably six months back in
the seventies eighties, and then he just evolved sooner, right,
just we were in a delay, right, I mean, grew
up with let Zeppeling and the purple on the vinyl.
But I can assure you my brother Rene doesn't remember that.
You know what I'm saying it We're three years apart, right,
so it's kind of like that, right. But anyway, I
(02:25:27):
just figure I call you guys, say hello, love the show,
Thank you man, you guys. Thanks right you guys, you did.
Speaker 2 (02:25:36):
Take care brother. There's Ricardo Delays Rob and pop culture
is away a little bit of a delay. Hey Alan,
(02:25:59):
Rob Adam from Parma. Just want to chime in and
welcome Jess to the crew, and most importantly want to
chime in and also say hey Mary, happy birthday. Good
to hear you again. And I wanted to ask the
gentleman in the room a question, how is NonStop nut
November going for you anyways?
Speaker 3 (02:26:18):
Tears?
Speaker 2 (02:26:20):
Yeah, we don't neither Rob nor I recognize no nut November,
although if we did, we'd be getting ready to nut
because it's almost December. It's all nut November.
Speaker 3 (02:26:33):
Yeah.
Speaker 9 (02:26:36):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (02:26:40):
I was also wondering who he's talking to. For the
gentleman in the room, I'm like, oh, Christ, not me.
I'm out. I'll tell you who I want to see.
We were talking before about Bone Thugs doing their very
last show ever the Agora on Saturday night. I want
to see this all girl Radiohead tribute band called Laby Ahead.
Have you seen any of the videos from Laby Ahead?
(02:27:04):
You know there's a if you're a Radiohead fan, there's
an album called Hail to the Thief. My son is
a huge Radiohead fan. He's like Radiohead tattoos. Hail to
the Thief is a Radiohead and so the girls in
Laby Ahead do rob Hail to the Queef.
Speaker 3 (02:27:18):
Get it.
Speaker 2 (02:27:41):
Now. I don't know if these girls are going to
go on the road, but somebody points out, turns out
Radiohead songs are pretty good when they're not being performed
by Radiohead, and I couldn't agree more. Yeah, but Laby
Ahead not bad. I wouldn't mind going to see them.
It is cuffing season after all. Wrong. Uh so, yeah,
(02:28:04):
I don't know. I have to think that that's one
of those one off bands, right, I would imagine they
pull a couple of nights there in the Bowery and
then they move on to something else. But hopefully they'll
do some dates. Hopefully, maybe they'll go on a tour.
I don't know. Speaking of which, I've got some sperm
(02:28:25):
news before cuffing season is upon us. Of course, you know,
people want to People think it's just the winter time,
but it's really winter and summer when people are looking
to kind of find somebody to snug up. Maybe find
(02:28:46):
yourself a nice roaring fire, and then in the spring
thaw you can figure out a way to get out
of it. But searches for porn dating sites, people on
escort service websites, they peak precisely twice a year and
(02:29:07):
those times are winter and summer. So for people who
are looking to get cuffed, now is the time to
do it. But pornography is a hell of a drug
rob And there's a school administrator who had to quit
his job. This is in Illinois, Summit, Illinois. I don't
(02:29:28):
know where that is. That sounds like it's the middle
of the state. But this is a guy of a
This is a superintendent of a school district, who put
thousands of dollars of porn on the school's credit card,
And finally, if you will, came clean.
Speaker 9 (02:29:46):
And and.
Speaker 2 (02:29:49):
Resigned under what oh huh, and said I can't lie anymore.
And he came clean about what he was doing. Somebody
caught wind of his questionable spending, I guess, and he
(02:30:10):
said that he never meant to, and there were people
coming to his support. They said that he's done a
lot of good for the school, he loved the school.
He told the school board that the expenditures were for
a right wing publication called The Epoch Times. Remember the
Epoch Times. I didn't even know this is a thing anymore.
They started out being like propaganda for the Chinese Communist
(02:30:31):
Party or something, and then naturally became more of a
mag of mouthpiece. So I guess this guy's thought was, no, no, no,
I'm not a continuous masturbator. I'm just a douchebag. That
was the better explanation, I guess, as far as this
guy was concerned, No, no, no, no, no, no, not poorn,
noo websites. Douche First, he said that somebody else had
(02:30:53):
compromised the school's card, and then he said that he
mistakenly used the schools credit card. But then they discovered
that he was making like false invoices and things. So
he was trying to really paper over the whole situation.
And so this guy, his excessive porn consumption rob made
(02:31:15):
him resign from his job. If that was the case,
I'd be putting in my notice. So but boy, imagine that,
You're like, yeah, I can't even he was. He spent
eleven hundred dollars on Slushy, which is an adult website.
(02:31:38):
Are you hipped to Slushy? I'm not all right, yes,
Are you any kind of porn consumer?
Speaker 18 (02:31:43):
No?
Speaker 2 (02:31:44):
No, I'm running these down right now. Okay, Slushy, Yeah,
got that one. Not to be confused with Tushy. That's
a whole other thing. Oh is that the different one? Yeah, Tushy. Yeah,
if you're in a like anal and stuff like that, Slushy.
Uh huh. He spent hundreds of dollars on Viagra. I
don't know why you need that if you're just watching porn,
but okay. He spent twenty six thousand dollars with Amazon,
(02:32:11):
including a variety of items that would I guess be
relevant to the porn situation. Spend one hundreds of dollars
on other adult websites. Jesus, I typed in Slushy Adult
and all I'm getting his recipes for missed drinks, frozen
mixed drinks am Slushy Adult sight. So this guy was Jesus,
(02:32:33):
this guy. I love these people that like, oh, I'll
just use the school's credit card. Who's ever going to
figure that out? I'll never know, well, because I think after,
you know, if you get through like that first year
or whatever, because they always find these people after five
or six years. In the trouble with that is they go, well,
now you owe restitution or whatever the litigation says, and
you're never going to pay back six hundred thousand dollars
(02:32:54):
or whatever. Buzz wild. It's crazy. I think anytime somebody
embezzles from their company or some woman in accounts payable
who's making you know, fake invoices or whatever. I guess
they think, well, I got away with it for this long,
I'll just keep doing it. But wouldn't everybody around Hey,
how did Barb buy a new Jaguar? I mean, people
(02:33:16):
can't keep it to themselves, so they spin out. And
for this guy, it was the porn that once again
was his downfall. Also in Sperm News, we do have
a handful of bureau chiefs who do listen to the
show overseas, and I want them to be very careful
because the UK is dealing with an outbreak of what
(02:33:40):
they're calling a drug resistant super fungus that attacks the
groin and ass. Oh good, at least they're keeping it
in the same area, something called trichaphighting in dotina, a
drug resistant fungal infection. You know, if you watch that
show The Last Us, this is what's gonna get us
(02:34:01):
rob the fung gui the fungal infections. Now, I'm gonna
stop watching that show. These have surged by five hundred
percent in the UK. Doctor say, it's becoming a really
big problem. It attacks the groin and anus. I've got
fungus all about by genitalia. It is oh boy, oh good. Yeah,
(02:34:26):
I would Yeah, I'm no medical expert. I'm no physician,
but I would think if you see a five hundred
percent increase in cases, yeah, that's a big problem. Typically
caught through direct skin sexual contact, and it is resistant
to treatment. What about indirect sexual It appears as circular
(02:34:49):
lesions around the groin and anus. The groin and anus.
Oh good before spreading elsewhere. DJ j C, get ready
with your applause. Fungle in the bungle congratulates, well done.
Jess congratulates. It's a fungalhort a fungle in the bone.

team there at home in Toronto. One ten to ninety
nine is the final. Caves are off until Friday when

good time with your families. I just want to know
what your guys' opinions are on the Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade.
I like watching it.
Speaker 2 (02:37:59):
Plus this year it's supposed to be super windy, so
I can't wait.
Speaker 22 (02:38:03):
To see like woodstocks paint ponging off the walls and
you know, Snoopy just pinballing it down Main Street.
Speaker 2 (02:38:10):
Hate the show of cotton bowls was, Yeah, thank you, cottonbows.
I don't have any thoughts. I've never watched the Macy's
Thanksgiving Day Parade. I haven't. No, I do like the
old video on YouTube of the year that the Barney
it was super windy. If well, they had to cut
it open. Yeah, because the people that had the guy
wires or whatever, the toe lines or whatever the hell
(02:38:31):
they are, they were getting pulled all over the place.
They had to stab this son of a bitch. And
then the kids, you know, we're watching Barney peel apart,
you know, being flayed right there in New York. No,
I don't, I don't know. I'm sure when I was
a kid, because we were at my grandmother's for the holidays,
and when I was a kid, my grandma would watch
(02:38:53):
like the Tournament of Roses Parade remember that, yep, Pasadena, California.
That was like a I don't remember it was Christmas
or what it was. And then the Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade.
I had friends many years ago who were obsessed with it,
Like they got a hotel room along the route months
(02:39:15):
in advance so they could stand up there and watch
these dumbed irigibles. Yeah, people run right by them. People
rent out space in their apartments so you can look
down and see it's huge. Many people go nuts. Tim
Wally did it on Seinfeld. I watch it. Uh usually
put it on for a few minutes every year. It's
like kind of a tradition in our house. Oh go,
(02:39:40):
so you guys do put it on always to come
at the end you click. It only happens once a
year Christmas. Ladies, all right, listen, So they click off
the Hallmark channel and they turn on the Macy's Thanksgiving
(02:40:01):
Day Parade. Throw it over to NBC and watch.
Speaker 7 (02:40:04):
Uh.
Speaker 2 (02:40:05):
Al Roker right used to be like what Matt Lauer
and yeah, Briant Gumbel all their marquee personalities. Was it
Brian or Bryant? Which Bryan Brian? Yeah, Brian was the
one that just died, right, Greg and gumb was his brother. Yep, Bryant. No,
the brothers were not named Brian and Bryant. I know,
(02:40:25):
it's just a joke. What nothing, Brian and Bryant weren't
their names. Hey, speaking of Brian, we have five Well
we missed it. What our five o'clock? What's a Friday? Well,

Speaker 14 (02:40:39):
Oh what a finger bag singer bag bang bang bang,
finger bang bang, finger bags bang bang bang, finger bang bang,
finger bang bang bang bang, binger bang bang, finger bag
bang bang.
Speaker 2 (02:41:10):
And now it feels like the weekend finger.
Speaker 14 (02:41:12):
Bang bang bang bang, finger bang bang, finger bang bang,
bank bang, finger bang bang, finger bang bang bang bang,
binger bang bang bang.
Speaker 2 (02:41:24):
Right, thank you God, we were talking. It was at
least it was a headline a week or so ago
about how they were looking for new naming rights for
Columbus Crew Stadium. That's where they have Sonic Temple. Yeah.
Only time I ever get to Columbus cru Stadium is
(02:41:44):
for Sonic Temple in May, probably the only time a
lot of people go. And it had been called lower
dot Com or something. I don't know. You know, a
lot of these websites spent a lot of money on
short term naming rights. But then a lot of these
websites go out a business or the business they represent
(02:42:04):
goes out of business. Uh, lower dot com field rolls
right off the tongue. You gotta love all the dot
com naming rights, but they got money, So the venues
are gonna be like, yeah, that's stupid, but they'll pay.
So who cares. I gotta get over to the lower
what do you call it? The dot com lower dot com? Well,
(02:42:25):
they've got a new DC. Yeah, they got a new Uh.
Sonic Temple will be held at you know, they used
to call it Legendary Columbus Crew Stadium. I think maybe
in like Shorthand that's what they call it. But for
professional purposes, Sonic Temple will be held in twenty twenty
six at Scott's Miracle grow Field. Jesus, is that what
(02:42:50):
they came up with?
Speaker 4 (02:42:50):
Yes?
Speaker 2 (02:42:51):
Why not just Miracle grow Field. There's Scott's Field. Does
it really have to be Scott's Miracle grows Scott's Miracle
grow Field. They've served as the team's official lawn and
gardening partner, and I think they're based somewhere around Columbus
I think that's where they have Sonic Temple. Right cru Stadium, Man, Yeah,
(02:43:13):
Cruse Stadium, and they have you know, obviously soccer and
things like that. The Columbus Crew are proud to call
Scott's Miracle grow Field our home. Beginning in twenty twenty six,
that's what they'll have Sonic Temple. I don't know if
they'll be working that into all of the Sonic Temple signage,
(02:43:34):
but I'm sure there are plenty of grass puns to
be made there. Now on the parade is a great
way to start the day, nice and calm and goofy,
to induce good holiday vibe.
Speaker 10 (02:43:48):
Yeah, they have all the silly artists lips sinking, it's all.
It's great and then I just like the end you
got Santa comes on to thirty fourth.
Speaker 2 (02:43:56):
Street, ah ride. Maybe I'll watch it. You're gonna hate it.
Barney got spatch cocked in the middle of the street.
Somebody says they did the best way to describe it.
Jess will be watching. So, Jess, is it like a thing?
I know you have a little one, but is it
like a thing? Where are you excited when your kid
gets old enough where you can show him Paul Blart
(02:44:17):
Mall Cop already showed him like three times. Poor kid,
he's just staring at the screen. He's five months old. Yeah,
in his brain it'll stick around. Yeah, he's gonna ask
for it again tonight. I'm like, all right, sure, watch
it again. Yeah, years from now. So what brings you
to therapy? My mom showed me Paul Blart Mall Cop
(02:44:39):
Daily Daily, like Malcolm McDowell and Clockwork Orange. She had
the hooks in my eyelids. He wanted a moped, ah
because that's pretty Wait is that what it is? No,
he rides the seg That's what it is. My favorite movie.
I know what the guy rides. Yeah, come on kid, wait,
what's a mo pen? Friends? Find out alan Sonic Temple
(02:45:09):
is not at that spot there. That's the historic Columbus
Crew Stadium. I was gonna say. As I was saying,
it's like, there's no way they're gonna jam up like
whatever new turf they have done. Okay, the new stadium
is where they play. So Sonic Temple is in the
old and busted stadium. It's the new hotness. Yeah, they
don't care if they jam that up, the new hot Okay, Well,
then that makes sense. I guess historic Cruise Stadium, Historical cruse,
(02:45:35):
hysterical cru Stadium that too, maybe that it's very funny.
Speaker 3 (02:45:39):
Walk with me so shy.
Speaker 14 (02:45:41):
It's a skippy dude that day the hap.
Speaker 2 (02:45:48):
In the.
Speaker 3 (02:45:50):
US over.
Speaker 2 (02:45:52):
Yeah, you see jelly Roll, he looks like Brent from Shinedown. Now,
jelly Roll lost a lot of weight, and my thing is,
wasn't that his hook being a fat guy? I mean,
obviously I want the guy to be healthy. And if
you're a performer and you see this happen with male
and female performers. You saw it happen with Lizo, really
(02:46:14):
saw it happen with Adele. You'll have performers that are like,
they want to be body positive and that's good, but
it's just not feasible really if you're somebody who's going
to be running around on stage night after night after night,
they're like, I'm trying to have a career. I need
to get myself in some kind of shape. So Adele
lost a bunch of weight. Lizo is I think still
(02:46:36):
in process of doing that. And you can't win. It's
a lose lose because people give you a hard time
because all the other people who are of sizable carriage.
You're kind of their patron saint, and when you decide
that you want to lose some weight, they get all
mad at you. But Jelly Roll lost a ton of weight,
(02:46:59):
and so he's like he shaved, so he's like a
thin guy now, you know, and so thin ish. Well,
he lost like two hundred and fifty pounds. When you
weigh five hundred and fifty pounds, fifty is like any
weigh that much was that much? But he was huge.
He was fag dude. Yeah. His wife is this YouTube
(02:47:22):
chick named Bunny XO who's got all this you know.
She's like she's uh kind of jubbly in all the
right places, right, she's kind of got that jess, like
a rabbit vibe. And she has to go to jail,
Rob for what tickets or something? Oh yeah, you said,
(02:47:46):
its like butt head tickets, Uh, tickets, just to turn
herself in to go to jail.
Speaker 15 (02:47:52):
You guys, I'm going to jail. What happened was I
got a ticket in twenty two Rob? I forgot to
mention she has a podcast, of course she does. It's
called dumb Blonde. That's good me in Alabama I'm driving,
I get pulled over by this officer and so he
runs my license and he comes back and he goes,
do you know that your license is suspended? And I
(02:48:13):
was like, what it looks like your girl is gonna
have to go book herself in and if I do,
you guys have seen all my past mugshots. Right, I'm
going in glam the baby, and I'm going.
Speaker 2 (02:48:24):
To blog it. I'm going to flow. Boy, it's great
being white. I hate everything about that is so great
being white. Every word that came out of her mouth. Up.
She's on a podcast, Like, guys, I gotta turn myself
into jail and I'm getta podcast it. I'm gonna do
the whole thing.
Speaker 18 (02:48:44):
Man.
Speaker 2 (02:48:45):
Yeah, everything about that. I hate Bunny XO, who's like Nano.
She's not like in her twenties. She's like almost fifty,
going to jail in full glam from an unpaid ticket
to take my name mag Danko, k if fat at it.
Hey listen, good for her. She's gonna vlog it. I
(02:49:07):
don't think I've heard vlog. That's how you know she's
forty five years old. I haven't heard vlog in about
ten years. But uh, yeah, okay, listen. Not everybody is
a fan of a Jelly Roll or his wife. Everybody's
that fato man. She got a ticket four or five
(02:49:29):
years ago returning from a family vacation in Alabama. I'm
always interested when people don't know that their license is suspended. Yeah,
I don't know how you don't know that. I mean,
I guess if people because there's a lot of people
who subscribe to the If I get a ticket, screw it,
they can come find me. I'm not gonna pay it.
Like and I get tickets, I just pay them. It's
my dumb luck that I got it, you know, or whatever.
(02:49:50):
Just pay them. It's a scam whatever. Fine, But I
I have to assume that people are like, oh, I
didn't know my license was suspended. But they're like, yeah,
you get a bunch of unpaid ticket, that's why. And
if you get pulled over, then a half that got it. Yeah,
take stip it at Oh god, they know that they

Speaker 10 (02:50:38):
Yeah, I don't know that he's my boy. I said

like if he does that one song that I can

All Right, find she whoa shame? That's how it would go.
Rock of course, playing a new song and they it's
just crickets or any song that's not stand by me. Well, listen,
(02:52:36):
his discography might be amazing. You figure, I don't think
it is. I think he's new ish. Well I think
so too, but still uh yeah, because he's a guy
who was a scientist for a long time and it
sounds like a late bloomer. But he was writing songs
for other people. So that's kind of a classic, you know,
story writing songs for other people and then you go, well, hey,
(02:52:57):
I should perform my own music. And so that might
be his situation. He is now well jelly roll us
a lot of way you're gonna change his name. Now
rolls a fat guy name.
Speaker 7 (02:53:16):

got really thin. But she also did so much like
injectables into her face. She's She says she no longer
has the ability to like really smile properly. Oh really, yeah,
she can't like all the time, but like her eyes
are are just solid on the sides. Yeah, it's crazy. Well,
(02:54:06):
it's gotta be weird. When your whole bit was on'm
on about that base right, like you see, your whole
hit was about having fat ass.
Speaker 9 (02:54:12):
And now I must leave you as the Brady bunch
is on and I find four of those children incredibly arousing.
Speaker 2 (02:54:19):

Speaker 3 (02:54:21):
Be careful of what you say, Be careful in every way,
Be careful of what you do. Big Brother is watching you.
Be circumspect and discreet, Stay light on your mental feet.

is watching you, and weird all narities. Remember obedience paid,
