(00:20):
Thank you. Welcome to the Delvin Cox
(01:19):
experience, the podcast which each week I'm on a one man
mission to United Coast to diversity.
I'm one of your host Delvin Cox and with me on the podcast is Co
host of shitty song of the week Red.
How you doing buddy? I'm here, brother.
What's going on with you? Nothing much man, nothing much.
As always, like to start the podcast up to 555 questions. 5
(01:39):
minutes to get the ball on the red.
Are you ready? Ready as I'll ever be, buddy.
OK, question #1 you're a drinker.
Yes, Sir. So that's this question to you.
What was your favorite drink? Alcoholic beverage.
Let me put this in perspective. Alcoholic beverage as a team and
(02:06):
how did it change as an adult? Man, when I was in high school,
like 10th, 11th grade, I startedexperiencing alcohol for the
first time. It was probably like Boone's
farm, Mad Dog, maybe a cheap beer mixed in there somewhere
(02:32):
like, I don't know, like old Milwaukee or something crazy
like that. OK, Milwaukee.
And as I got older, I mean, I, I, I also grew up me and my
latter part of my junior year and my senior year, I drank and
I stuck with that and I still drink it to this day.
(02:54):
So that part of it hasn't changed.
I still drink the same beer. I'll drink other beers too, but
that's probably my favorite. But I don't drink so much.
I don't drink mad or shit anymore.
Like my taste completely changed.
I turned into a a bourbon whiskey Scotch guy in my early
20s, so that Avenues kind of took me down some Cray.
(03:18):
Like I've I've drank some crazy bourbons and whiskeys and really
expensive ones and some really cheap ones.
So I'd like to say my taste of alcohol has evolved over the
last 20 years. Yeah, that's, that's good.
You know, I always think like how as you get older, your taste
buds change and it's different things you like, you don't like.
(03:40):
And I feel like alcohol is one of those things that people just
like, unless it's your mainstay,of course.
You know, some people have theirmainstays that they just stick
with. But you know, as you get older,
your taste change, your opinionschange on things, and that's how
it works. I just don't think my damn
stomach could could tolerate Boone's Farm and Mad Dog
anymore. And there's that part.
(04:01):
There's also that part. Yeah, I don't think I can handle
it anymore. You.
Get to age where like oh I don'tknow if I should be drinking
this all right. Question #2 In your opinion,
read What do you think is the best Stoner movie?
(04:25):
Oh fucking like any of the Cheech and Chong movies dude.
Any Cheech and Chong movie probably.
Nice. Dreams.
Nice dreams or up in smokes a good one and then you want to go
like newer movies, Pineapple Express, Daze and confuse, which
(04:46):
I like. I like watching a good
psychological thriller when I'm stoned to just to make me think
and process the movie and OK pick plot holes and shit like
that. Like I was a big fan of the
Matrix series getting, you know,getting high and watching the.
Matrix watching a little bit of song.
Watch my get murdered. Right.
And then back in back in high school, there was a thing you
(05:08):
probably heard about this dove and like there was a thing going
around when I was in high schoolwhere you could start the Wizard
of Oz movie. And on the third lion roar AM
intro thing, you start the Wizard of Oz and the Wizard of I
mean, Pink Floyd's the wall. Sorry.
(05:28):
Yes. Or no, it's a dark side of the
moon, that's what. It is.
I think it's Dark side of the moon.
It's Dark Side of the Moon, not the wall.
Yeah, but if you start those simultaneously, you you get to
experience the Wizard of Oz in awhole new way.
So there's that. Yeah, yeah.
That's what it is is. I've heard of that, but I've
(05:50):
never done it before. It's pretty wild.
It's pretty wild. Huh.
I should do that. Yeah.
Do I have? I don't think I have Plunk Boys
album. That's probably one of the ones
I probably should have. You could probably find it on
YouTube though I would say. That'll probably be a good, a
good idea. Save me some money.
(06:12):
It's just like a, it's like, youknow, just watch it off YouTube.
I damn sure don't have the Wizard of Oz, I tell you that
right now. Bro I've got it on VHSNDVD.
I can't tell you the last time Iwatched that movie.
Damn baby, when I'm. I'm not excited.
(06:33):
I'm not excited about the new one that's coming out though
are. You talking about wicked?
That's. What it is?
Yeah. Wicked, Yeah.
That actually looks pretty good.I mean it, it has its part, I've
seen the previews for it whenever me and my son went to
see Terrifier 3 and it has its parts.
I think it'll be decent, but I don't like high hopes for it
(06:56):
because the original is so good.Yeah, this is like a prequel.
Yeah. I just.
I just don't know about Ariana Grande being the whole thing,
you know? What I mean like Linda?
Yeah, yeah. I don't know how I feel about.
Yeah, it's going to be. I think it's based off a
(07:17):
musical, right? Oh, yeah.
Yeah, yeah, yeah. Yeah, so that makes sense.
I guess if you look looking likethat, it was it was going to be
a musical. I'm not watching the musicals.
Fuck that. I mean.
After seeing Joker Theater, I don't want to watch another
musical. Never get in theaters, no.
I think after all the CGI and all the special effects and
(07:41):
stuff and the way it's grown over the years since 1939 when
the original Wizard of Oz came out and that movie was like top
of whenever it came out, you know, as far as special effects
and high definition and, you know, colored movies and all
that. Wasn't it the first color movie?
I know it's in black and white and color at the same time, so I
(08:03):
don't know if it was the first thing or not, but it's it's,
it's probably up there in like the top ten first things ever in
color, bro. I would just, I would just like
to see just to make my point real quick.
I would like to see the Wizard of Oz like the OG done with new
CGI and special effects and stuff like that, just to see
(08:24):
where they would, you know what I mean?
Don't give it to somebody like Tim Burton or anybody like that,
but just I don't know. Interesting.
Yeah. I I I was curious so I googled
it. Contrary to popular belief, The
Wizard of Oz was not the first color film.
It may be the most iconic, but it was not the first film to use
(08:48):
color in filmmaking. The first film to be in natural
color is A Visit to the Seaside,a short which used the chemical
process with red and green altering filters.
Interesting. I know there was a thing back on
TV like in the 60s whenever theytransferred over from black and
(09:11):
white to color. A lot of shows and stuff would
like Countdown 321 and it would go from like black and white to
color like while they were watching TV.
That is so wild to think about that there was a time where,
like, our TV shows didn't even have color.
Yeah, this is black and white TVshows now we're like an 8K.
(09:33):
Right here I am over here tryingto talk my wife into a 95 inch
colored flash. Yeah, and, and they didn't even
have color back then and they. Didn't even have color.
They was watching TV on something like 12 by 12, two
TV's. That's crazy.
All right, question number this 3.
(09:54):
Three. OK, my bad 3.
I remember question #3 Red. OK.
If there was one show from the 80s you can bring back to modern
times, what show are you bringing back?
Right. Oh.
You know, I just had this conversation with the other day,
(10:15):
not that exact question, but it came up like, oh, it was, it was
Alf in the 80s. Yes, Alf was in the 80s.
Yeah, I would bring back Alf 100%.
That's actually a good one to bring back.
I think Alf probably would work a modern day version I'll
probably work today. Yeah, I don't know about the
whole eating the cats and the dogs and stuff maybe, but yeah,
(10:35):
I think it would be. I think it would be pretty good.
Yeah, I think Alpha would be a pretty good sort of brain back.
I think that shoot, it feels like Alpha's always talk about a
pop culture, so might as well just.
Yeah, absolutely. Bring them back.
Yeah. Oh yeah.
I forget how popular that show was in in this time.
It got like when I say two or three TV movies.
(10:58):
They had a cartoon show. It was pretty popular.
I watched it every Friday night when it came on TGIF.
Oh, yeah, Yeah, I remember. It's vividly.
That and the. What was the one?
Dinosaurs. What was the name of that show?
Yeah, Dinosaurs. Dinosaurs.
Yeah, that one was my favorite. Too.
(11:19):
What a Both of those shows have pretty famously dark endings.
Did you know that red? You know, I've heard stories,
but I don't know exactly what they are.
OK, spoilers for Alf. Let's start with Alf first for
people who spoilers for a 30 year old show.
Alf ends with the the feds come into the house and take it Alf
(11:47):
away. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
To possibly be experimented in front.
So, you know, and the fairly probably with the poison, yeah,
they came and got out. That's how Alf ends.
Yeah, yeah. Yeah, yeah, the TV movies kind
of retconned out a little bit, but the last episode of the TV
show is the FBI, the fans comingto get out and take them away.
(12:11):
Yeah, I do remember that. It's been a long time since I've
thought about that that show, but.
And dinosaurs, on the other hand, ends even worse.
Extinction, right? Yes, it's with the extinction of
the dinosaurs. They all die.
Yeah. It is so depressing like this is
(12:32):
how they end the show. Right.
Because the last scene is like the family that you'd like watch
for all these years talking about are we going to be OK?
Like we should be OK as they diein oblivion.
Like what the fuck is going on with this show?
Right. It's so weird.
(12:53):
Yeah, those are those are a couple of my favorites back in
the day though in between those two, I would say bring Al for
Dinosaurs back. Those are two good shows.
Two really good shows. Yeah.
All right, question #4 what is the best flavored drink you've
tried that is based off a food product?
(13:19):
Give me an example. Oreo Coke, that is a food
product, that's a flavored drink.
Pete's Coke I think is another one.
Yeah, fuck Pete's Pepsi. That's fuck all that.
That was, that's what it was, Pepsi.
That's terrible. Like the what was the the orange
flavored Mountain Dew live orange, orange flavored Mountain
(13:44):
Dew? Like voltage or live wire or
something. Was that based on a food
product? I don't know how are you talking
about like a branded thing? Yeah, like it has to be based
off a food product. Like.
Oreos is the actual food you cango get it peeps off of food food
as well. And you asked me what was the
best one. Yes.
(14:05):
Dude, you're asking the wrong person for that.
Though this is the right person because you've never tried any
food like drinks that are based off food products.
Like, yeah. But there's not a best one.
They all suck. That's the point.
That's the point of the questionis, so I don't know.
I don't know worst which one is the best.
Oh. Man damn it when the peeps thing
(14:34):
sucked really bad so. And you can't cheat and be like
V8 100% cheating V8. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
I I would absolutely take V8 over either of those two, but I
don't even know of any more besides those two though.
Like what are? What are my options?
Well, you can. I mean, I don't think I can.
(14:55):
I don't think I know anymore. Well, if you're.
Really like flavored cokes and pepsis and shit like that.
I don't. Know based products.
So if you want to go, if you want to cheat, technically
speaking, strawberry soda is based off of strawberries.
Grape soda is based off of grapes.
Right, that's why I was saying the orange Mountain Dew.
(15:15):
But all but it's not. It's not orange.
It's live wire. That's not, that's not an
orange. It's actual orange.
Is there orange Mountain Dew? Yeah.
Is it called orange or is it just live wire?
Live, live wire, high voltage, whatever.
But it's orange flavored though.But if you want to, if you want
to go something like that, like what's the fucking big red?
(15:39):
The strawberry flavour soda is pretty dope.
OK, what was the one growing up from the South Dale?
And it was like red rock it was called or big.
It was called Red Rock. OK, Red Rock.
OK, I know that one. That was good too.
I don't know about Brandon things though.
Like I mean the Oreo 1 was definitely better than the than
(16:01):
the Pete Pepsi. Yes it yes it would.
I hate peps. Though, Yeah, but yeah, but
like, I like grape soda, I like orange soda, I like strawberry
soda, you know what I'm saying? As far as like food based things
I guess. But like, I'm going to look up
some for you. But like, branded shit, I don't
know a lot of them. Those are the only two that I
(16:22):
know. I mean, does Crystal Pepsi?
Count well, that's that's crystal is not actually we got a
crystal is red. Yeah, I know.
I would just be good for man. I don't know.
Yeah, dude, I can't think of any.
Not off the top of my head, anyway.
Trying to see if I can find somefood flavored sodas.
(16:44):
There we go. Let's look it up.
Like this. Yeah.
I can't think of any. OK oh, I want to try this.
Lester's fixing peanut butter and Jelly soda.
Oh, you know what, Devin? They have like ranch flavored
(17:04):
soda and bacon flavored soda. I'm looking at right now bacon
flavored soda. I forgot about those.
I haven't tried any of them though but I have seen them on
my TikTok and shit. I would say corn flavored soda
is pretty gross, but the bacon one's probably pretty good.
The Bacon 1 might be good. Yeah.
(17:25):
Coffee. Soda.
No, that would throw me off. Yeah, that doesn't sound good at
all. OK, birthday cake soda.
That might be good. Oh, mustard soda.
No, definitely not. Anything sweet flavor would be
good, obviously. I should order some of these
(17:46):
sodas for drunk. Let him try drunk from.
Yeah, ranch, I hear. A ranch, I hear is pretty gross.
That sounds gross. OK, I found something.
It's Lester's Fixing Variety 6 pack, and this six pack come
(18:06):
with Buffalo wing soda, baking soda.
Yeah. When I say bacon, I mean like
bacon. The food not like not like
baking. Soda.
Baking soda, Yeah. Yes, ranch dressing, Sweet corn,
pumpkin pie, and peanut butter and Jelly soda.
(18:32):
Pumpkin pie would probably be good.
Peanut butter and Jelly is probably good.
You're hot with your buffaloes. Probably just like like the
sauce. It probably just tastes like the
sauce. If it tastes like the sauce and
the chicken, they did something.Yes, I found another weird one.
Red grass, a soda pop. Grass.
(18:58):
Grass. No, I'm good, I like the way
fresh cut grass smells, but no I'm not drinking grass juice.
Fuck all that. That that is an interesting
drink to say the least. Yeah, we should order a.
We should we should all order a six pack of them and have like a
(19:19):
taste test on on a stream one night.
We should. That's a good idea.
I think we may do something likethat one night.
Oh yeah. What are a bunch of these
drinks? Yeah, I'm down.
And see what happens. Then we can raid them, Devin.
Yes, all right, question #5 OK, all right, I got to get a cool
(19:48):
one. OK, I'll get a question I gave
my last week. Let me pull it up, bro.
Come on, pull it up. Because this is important, I
think, and I think this is a really interesting thing because
I don't know if you know this red, a lot of black celebrities
(20:11):
passed away this year. Not like, like, just like ones
that people know and love. Like we just lost Quincy Jones.
Tony Todd. Tony Todd.
So I'm going to name. I'm going to name I'm, I'm,
let's say 4:00 and you're going to give me the role that you
(20:34):
know what I'm from. OK, OK, OK, OK, so let's start
with Carl Weathers. Oh, Friday, right?
That's the same dude, right old man?
(20:55):
No, no, Carl Weathers. Yeah, What the Hell's his name?
I thought he, I thought he was aCarl.
I thought his last name was Withers or Werther's or
something like that. You're talking about pops from
Waynes Brothers. Carl Weathers is not.
See, I don't want to split. Well, I can split it now because
you already got it wrong. Carl Weathers is Apollo Creed.
(21:18):
Oh, yeah. What's the what's the The old
man from Friday and Pops from The Williams Brothers?
Witherspoon. Witherspoon.
That's what I was thinking about.
OK. OK, Next up I'll give you an
easy one, Tony, Todd said. She just mentioned them.
Yeah, fucking candy, man. What was the one the he was he
(21:43):
played a side character in a movie.
What the fuck? Candy man's a good one.
That's a good answer. Bitch.

going to. Get it?
I can't think of off the top of my head.

going to be easy 1 James Earl Jones.
Sandlot. OK.
Darth Vader. OK.
(22:45):
Oh, what's the he narrated a bunch of shit to like the.
You're forgetting another one ofhis.
You're forgetting two of his most famous roles.
I like them in Sandlot, that's probably one of my favorite one.
(23:05):
And Darth Vader. That's just like a voice over
thing though. Right, yes, you're forgetting
one more of his voice over Rose.Man, my brain is fried.
Devin. I know if you, if you say I'm
like, Oh yeah, but I can't thinkof it off the top of my head,

Lion King. That is correct.
Yeah, he was Mufasa. Yeah, that's right.

weird. Oh, what was the name of that
dude? I'm I'm so bad.
I'm so bad at OK, so there was afighter pot like a like a like a
(24:36):
Air Force kind of movie he was in that was really good, but I
can't think of the name. Of it Iron Eagle.
Iron Eagle, but then he was alsoin a space movie.
It was like mid 80s. You're talking about but.
He played like a alien and they talked like they clicked and
talked weird and they had like, oh, son of a bitch.
What is the name of that movie? It was on HBOA lot.
(25:01):
I cannot call it. You're going to make me look it
up, Darwin. Damn it.
It's going to bug me. Now hold on.
Enemy mind. That might be it.
Yes, that's the one you talk about when he plays the alien.
(25:21):
Yes, I. Don't think I remember watching

haven't seen it. OK.
All right. That was a deep pool, sorry.
That is a deep pool. All right, I got one more for

movie role are. You going to make?
Oh, no, I don't. I I I can see it in my head
Delvin, but I can't call. Him you going to kick yourself
when you when you think about it, when I say it, because the
(26:06):
movie everybody knows. Like Harlem nights or something,

It's a well known movie. It's not Harlem Nights, son of a

It's not you're. Thinking too black?
Too black, OK. Very popular, very popular movie

Saying yes, Mr. McDowell, and coming to America.
Yep. You are absolutely correct.
That's great movie. A hell yeah all.
(27:37):
Right, Rick, what how you been doing, man?
Plus I I wanted to have you on because, you know, shitty song.
The years coming up soon, man. So we got to talk about it.
Oh yeah, man. Well, I was, I was, I was on not
too long ago talking politics and whatnot.
Yes. But I'm doing well, Delvin,
things are great. We're we're ahead of schedule.
(27:57):
Shitty song of the year episodesare all scheduled out and ready
to go. We are literally on standby
waiting for record time. Yeah.
So let me, let me ask you this, OK.
As opposed to other years, what has been like recording and
getting ready for shitty soul ofthe year because this is this is
(28:20):
technically going to well, it's not technically it's going to be
the first year when it's just you and Teresa, if I remember
correctly, correct. So it's going to be a very
different feel to it. Well, we have since the middle
of the year when Teresa started helping out and being around
(28:40):
full time, we have gotten ourselves a couple episodes
ahead and we stay scheduled out ahead to where we don't get
backed up. Yeah.
It makes anything, it doesn't give us that excited, you know
what I mean? Like rushed feeling everything's
cool and smooth sailing. You know, this is the fifth one.
(29:02):
This is the 5th annual shitty song of the year.
This is a landmark, landmark year for shitty song of the
year. So we've got a few things that
we've set the bar every year. We've talked about this before.
We've we set the bar as far as the the crazy shit and the stuff
that goes on. It's, it gets set higher and
higher every single year. And we're, we're just trying to
(29:24):
one up ourselves this year, you know what I mean?
Getting the right guests and theright funnies in there, you know
what I mean? And the right jokes and the
songs are going to be fucking terrible to go through, but fun
all at the same time like they are.
But we've got a couple extra things planned that we didn't,
we haven't done in the past thatwe're probably going to continue
to do. So this is like a landmark time
(29:44):
of year. It's always hectic and rushy and
you know what I mean? Like it's my favorite time of
the year for the show because weget to go through and pick, you
know, who the shittiest song of the year is, But it's a lot more
relaxed. And, and like I've I've had this
talk with Teresa a couple times since we've wrapped up the year
that we've gotten so far ahead that we're not recording every
(30:08):
week right now. We've taken a couple weeks off
and I don't know what to do withmyself.
Like I haven't taken this this much time off in a really long
time. So it's it's a lot more
easygoing, a lot more laid back and not so rushed feeling.
Now we're just anticipating and we can enjoy waiting on shitty
song of the year, you know what I mean?
It's not so hectic and you're trying to rush and get
(30:30):
everything done. We've pretty much got it all
done. We're just waiting for it to
happen at this point. So it's pretty cool, yeah.
It's that is pretty cool. Well, let me ask you this, as
opposed to previous years, what do you think of the soul
selection that you guys have got?
How you guys have improved on getting souls that maybe fit the
(30:53):
show a little better and things like that?
Well, every year since the beginning, we've kind of played
around with genres in the years they come out and this and that.
And as far as like listener response, we get, you know, we
get this back and forth between like how old the song is or what
(31:16):
genre it is and all that. But I feel like they get tougher
and tougher every year. I mean, this set of songs that
we've got going through this year are pretty tough.
Like even the the initial elimination round, when we first
get started, it's going to be rough.
Normally it's just a you throw that one away, threw this one
away, threw that one away. Yeah, this one needs to go that
whatever. It's pretty easy normally.
(31:39):
I don't think it's going to be that way this year.
I think it's going to be a little tougher to go to get
started. So I think the songs are getting
tougher. You know, the songs are, we're
trying to, you know, revolve around, you know, new music and
then we try to, you know, throw back and do some old stuff.
But the new music coming out here lately, it's just been
(32:00):
something else. So we've got a lot of different.
It's, it's we, we, we, we try tostick with the four main food
groups of music, you know, the rock, rock, rap, country and
pop. But there's so many sub genres
that I think it makes it tough for new music to move on.
Or at the same time it's tough because the new music is
(32:21):
terrible too. So it makes the older music
tougher it to move on. So I think it's going to be, I
think it gets tougher and tougher every year.
I do, yeah. Yeah, I think, I think so as
well. But I'm one of the things that I
know that's kind of tough is kind of find that good blend
because you're you're picking out of terrible songs, but
(32:42):
picking songs that are terrible.It's almost an art form to it.
And what I mean by that is we, especially when it comes to city
Song of the year, the song stillhas to be enjoyable in terms of
listenable. So it's kind of really difficult
to get terrible songs that are also listenable enough to keep
(33:07):
the audience invested in the show.
Right. And I feel like the last half of
this year, it's funny you mention that, Devin, because the
last half of the year has been, we've had we've got so many
different jokes, inside jokes and jokes on the show that
revolve around some of the choruses, some of the song
(33:30):
titles that they're all ear worms.
Like they get stuck in your head.
And by the time you've heard them on the episode, you know,
and then you hear them in the qualifier and then you possibly
hear them in shitty song of the year.
By that time, you've heard it somany times that when you hear
the chorus to fucking Chapel Rome's hot to go, like I'm, I
know it, everybody's singing it.It's a, it's a fun song to, to
(33:53):
listen to at, you know, to a certain point, but at the same
time, it's terrible. You know, we, we've got, you
know, jokes that, that we run with these songs inside jokes,
like I say, like the, the whole hot to go Chapel Rome thing.
Whenever I've seen the title of that song, it looked like hot
dog to me, the way it's spelled out.
So that's been that's been an ongoing joke since it came out.
(34:15):
So I feel like there's enough assortment of music and choruses
and different styles and earworms that get stuck in your
head enough to where it's enjoyable.
It's fun. We can make fun of it, But at
the end of the day, like you say, it's still a bad song.
So there is, you're right, thereis an art form too.
That's pretty wild. Yes.
(34:36):
And you guys do a pretty good job of kind of balancing that
out and kind of getting we try together, make it work and make
it enjoyable. Yeah, we try to.
What let me ask this, what is the process?
And I I don't want to give away all the secret sauce, but the
(34:57):
process of picking the judges, the shitty song of the year,
because you usually have like a diverse cast and it gets crazy
sometimes when you smile pulled a gun out.
Yes, it's that crazy people. So what is your your thought
process of like? Who should I get for this show
this year? I mean, I've had this talk with
(35:25):
Teresa and I've had this talk with Jodie and a couple of the
other guys that we hang out on on microphone with, but it's
like, hold on, Delvin. All right.
(35:53):
So so it's kind of like there, there's a formula to I was, I
had this conversation with Teresa the other day.
Like you try to maximize the thefunny in every episode that you
do. You know, it's if if, if you're
that type of podcast, you know, you try to get the the maximum
amount of jokes and but you don't want to force it, of
course, but you have to figure out which one, you know, works
(36:14):
the best on Mike together, who has the funnier jokes as a not
really the funnier jokes, but who has jokes that could bounce
off of another funny person, youknow what I mean?
So, but then at the same time, you try to put somebody in there
that you know, doesn't crack a joke every two seconds with
somebody that does. So maybe the one that doesn't
(36:34):
can crack a few jokes and make some funnies, you know what I
mean? But as far as picking the songs
go, everybody that on that's on the panel gets chosen because
they have a different perspective on music.
It's normally the same circle ofpeople and it works out every
year because they all again, have those have a different
perspective on music. So they all have their opinions
(36:57):
and their different takes on it.Like what I think's terrible,
you might not and what Jody thinks terrible, Teresa might
not and Mike might not think something that Pepper thinks is
terrible, you know, So I mean, Ithink it works out like we, we
try not to, you know, one side everything.
So we have a conversation about the songs, like it's the
(37:19):
craziest thing. It's just a crazy, cheesy music
podcast. But we have serious
conversations about how terriblethe music is, which makes us
children at the end of the day, really.
But it, it's fun to have conversations about why music is
terrible and to plead a case fora song or to defend a song, you
know, it, it, it brings out conversations that you don't
(37:43):
normally have about music. So when you have 456 people in
the same room together making different points about songs, it
turns into a pretty interesting conversation.
So it, it, it, it just, it is not really a formula really.
It's just shaking the bag up andseeing what happens when you
(38:04):
pour it out. You know what I mean?
That's pretty much what it all boils down to.
But you still like to pair up some of the ones that are funny
together and then some that aren't, just for the laughs
about it not being funny, you know?
So I mean, there is, but there isn't really.
I mean, I like to shake the bag up and dump it out and see what
happens just for the chaos. But at the same time, you know,
(38:25):
you have to organize it. Teresa would have my ass if I
just shook the bag up and just let it happen, you know what I
mean? So.
Well, let me ask you this because I'm also curious about
this element of it so far, because you did, you've done
five years of it. What has been the worst song do
(38:50):
you think that you've had so faron the show?
And also on the flip side of it,what's been the Best Song you've
had? Now?
Best is, you know, pejorative because you know, it's the best
out of terrible songs, but it isnonetheless the best out of out
of those songs. And what's the worst?
(39:15):
The worst, I mean, one of the worst.
It's hard to narrow narrow it down to the actual worst one in
five years, but one of the worsthas been broken Side with the
song Freaks, I think was the name of that song with triple X
Freaks. I don't.
Know that. That one or a song about, I
(39:42):
don't know if it's a mumble rapper or a SoundCloud rapper by
the name of a Jew mix with a song called Trapped.
A lot of vocal fry, a lot of screaming.
It's terrible and the only song to ever be brought to the show
and never see the light of day. Brandon brought it.
(40:02):
And it was a Japanese pop rock band, whatever you want to call
it by the name of Rura. And it it was, it was 5 minutes,
6 minutes, whatever it was of just a bunch of Korean people
crying and singing about gettingmarried and having girlfriends
and boyfriends. And it was a an atrocious thing.
(40:24):
But it never seen the light of day because I got so mad about
it. The the best one?
That's tough. Yeah, like I said, 'cause you're
going through the best of a terrible list.
Like some of my favorites have been like Hank Williams Junior
(40:47):
in the red, white and pink slip Blues.
Oh, I think Paul McCartney, and I think he won two song of the
year last year, year before last.
But he had a temporary secretarythat was one that was one of
those ear worms that stuck with you and was pretty decent.
(41:08):
I mean, he's a Beatle, so. But that doesn't really hold
weight really anymore. I mean, there's so many Delvin,
so many. Like I, I mean, I'm, I'm
spending my role of day for the last five years of the show
trying to pick one out. And those are the only ones that
come to mind. Dang, well, we we I brought and
(41:36):
I only like it because it was just torturous for everybody
involved. But I brought MacArthur Park.
Oh. Which is a really famous song
and I can't, I can't remember the artist now that that done it
because it's been done by so many different people.
But this was somebody from the 60s or 70s that done it.
That was one of my favourites because it was torturous for
(41:58):
everybody involved. There's so many to pick from
that we could be here all night doing that, man.
Yeah, there's a lot like it's just 5, five years of shitty
song of the year. Yeah.
Which is impressive. This will be the 5th year, yeah.
No, it and it's I to commend youand Teresa and Brandon for that
(42:22):
matter. You know, a lot of shows don't
last as long. A lot of podcasts don't last as
long. So for you guys be doing it this
long and continuing on even without Brandon, I think it's to
be commended. Consistency is key, Delvin.
That's that's what I've always heard since I've started
podcasting. And if you stay consistent with
it, people will keep listening to it if you continue to put
(42:44):
content out. So, I mean, we've got mixed
reviews over about this show over the years.
Somebody ever since some people hate it, some people love it,
you know, but. That's that's a podcast in
general, you know? Yeah.
Like, I'm not. Yeah, of course, yeah, yeah,
yeah. I was just saying like, it's a
5050 thing, I think. But there's enough people that
listen every week that makes it worth doing it.
(43:05):
I mean, hell, if 10 people, fivepeople, two people listen to it,
I'd still probably do it. But it kind of makes it
worthwhile when you have interaction online and people
vote every week and you have interaction in the discord and
you talk to people that listen and they tell you what they want
to hear. And that's kind of been cool
too. So it, it's just trying to make
(43:25):
it better than the last year every single year, you know,
and, and I feel like we've been successful in doing that, you
know, so this year the bar's been set even higher.
The songs have been, to me personally, have been 10 times
as terrible as some of the othershit.
But at the same time, eventually, I think, like I
(43:45):
think when we do this at year 10, we're going to do the
shittiest song of the decade, I think.
That's actually a really good idea.
Yeah, so we've got a lot of songs to pick through, but
there's just, I mean. Well, question about that.
This is just me and my nerd brain thinking, but do you have
(44:06):
a list of each year's finalists and winner to keep track of that
stuff? Yeah, Teresa is actively putting
together a a spreadsheet, if youwill.
Of course she is. That's what Teresa does.
Yeah, like it's been really helpful and like just I've, I've
(44:28):
told her she's the shitty song of the week historian.
Like she's kept up with all the statistics and the percentages
and the winners and losers and she's getting it all wrote down
and put in and she's tabulated just about everything.
I think she's got this, I guess you could call it season to do I
think. And she'll?
I would be curious, now that youmention it, now that I'm
(44:49):
thinking about it, who would have that will besides the host,
obviously, what guess would havethe best winning percentage?
Oh, you know, I don't know because as far as like regulars
(45:12):
go, I I would have to look at what Teresa's got wrote down
because I wouldn't even begin toeven.
Well, there's some homework for you, Teresa.
Which guest besides the Co host?That's why I said guest, of
course. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Has the best winning percentage.Yeah, that's a good one.
That's a good one. Yeah.
(45:35):
I don't know, darling. It would have to be like Mike
maybe. Well, I don't know.
He's probably 5050 though. I'm not real sure.
It's hard to say because we've had a lot of new guests on the
last couple years and a lot of the the regulars that are on.
(45:55):
And two week to clarify Teresa's.
I know Teresa might be listening, I'm just talking
about not necessarily winning the season, but winning their
episode. Yeah, that's a good, that's a
pretty good homework, darling. Yeah.
She's been tabulating it all. She's been doing all kinds of
(46:16):
stuff behind the scenes, puttingeverything together and
archiving everything, if you will.
So it's a. She's in heaven sent.
She's great. She's great.
She's adds so much to the show. Because of Teresa, I, I hope I
don't pat her on the back enough, but because she is in
detail oriented as she is, I'm sitting on my hands right now.
(46:41):
You know, normally we're like I say, we're running, I'll say,
running back and forth, just literally sitting here editing
and putting stuff together. But we're, you know, emailing
and texting and this and that, images and songs and this and
put them in the drive back and forth for weeks at a time.
And Teresa's got it all planned out and all wrote down and
tabulated and organized to wherewe've got everything scheduled
(47:04):
out. And now we're sitting on our
hands till we record shitty songof the year.
So she's been a she's been a a huge asset, the shitty song of
the of the week and shitty song of the year.
So. I agree.
So let me ask this one last major question.
(47:25):
I know, shitty song. Just one simple question.
When is shitty song the year releasing?
OK, I knew you were going to askthat.
I probably should have already had it pulled up, but I can pull
it up pretty quick right here. I got it right here.
Shitty song of the year. The first part, we put it out in
two parts because it's so long. Last year it was 3 1/2, four
(47:47):
hours. Year before that it was 4 hours.
So we break it up into two episodes.
The first episode, the first half will be published December
the 9th. OK.
And then the second-half will beDecember the 16th.
OK. So.
My next question, Oh, go ahead. No, we're going to be recording
(48:10):
here soon, but it it won't be aired or put published and put
out for everybody to listen to until the 9th of the first of
the first part, the 9th and the second part's the 16th of
December. OK.
And my next question for you is after this all sit and dinner,
we have the shitty song of the year.
What is next? Shitty song of the week, 'cause
(48:31):
I feel like, you know, with the changing of the guard and stuff
like that, the passing of the torch, it's almost feel like
it's going to be a new era of shitty song of the week.
Yeah, I mean kinda. I mean, we've haven't started a
year together with me and Teresabefore.
(48:52):
So I mean there there's nothing like crazy bells and whistles
and streamers or anything like that.
But I feel like it's going to besomething different.
Like we're our recording schedule is going to be a little
different. Our guest schedule is going to
be a little different. The I have new guest on.
Think we're going to have a lot of new guest on.
We've got two or three lined up already.
(49:14):
You know, just a caliber of songand everything about it.
Like the face of it's changing alittle bit.
I'm, I'm a real stickler about changing like re but not
rebranding, but like changing our logo every year.
So we got a new logo coming out for 2025 and just we're just
(49:35):
going to go about it and take itepisode by episode.
But at the same time we're goingto try to give you something a
little different than what we did last year, I guess.
Like we've done an episode a fewweeks ago.
And while I was presenting my song, Theresa made mention that
it felt like you remember pop upvideos on VH1 Delma.
Yes, she said they went with theway I was explaining the
(49:58):
episode. It kind of felt like pop up
video. So I think we're going to try to
incorporate little tidbits of factoid information about the
songs and stuff while we're presenting them 'cause usually
we just bullshit and kind of intro the songs as they are and
then we listen to them. But here lately I've been trying
to dig a little deeper and give you a little bit more info about
the song in the history of it and this and that.
(50:20):
So that part's going to change alittle bit.
Nothing like crazy. We're not going to specifically
do it, but just little things like that.
Just we're going to try to give you a little more info about the
songs and dive into them a little deeper than just what the
surface says it is. You know what I mean?
As far as the name and who it isand whatever, but give you a
(50:40):
little bit of information to go along with it.
I mean, the the face is changing.
Like I say, the kind of the formats kind of stay in the
same, but changing a little bit.I mean, if it ain't broke, don't
fix it. Delvin.
That's kind of my motto. But we we still have to mix it
up a little bit every now and then just to make it different
from last year. You know, we're always trying to
come up with different ways to change the show all the time.
(51:02):
Yeah, makes sense. Final question.
OK. What's an artist who has not
been on City some of the week yet that you want to get on?
Bruno Mars. Oh, that's a good choice.
Lady Gaga. That's another good one.
(51:23):
They actually have a song together that I'm thinking about
bringing that came out a couple weeks ago that I'm thinking
about bringing to the show next year.
That right off the bat, somebodythat hasn't been brought, you
said yes, I've got a couple country artists that haven't
(51:45):
been brought. One of them is a fella by the
name of Craig Morgan. He's an old school fella.
Delvin's probably or Jody's probably going to string me up
when I bring the song, but there's a reason for it.
OK. That's, I mean that's probably a
few more, but I don't want to give it all the way.
(52:06):
Yeah, don't give it all the way.Yeah, that's just a couple of
them that I can think right off the top of my head, yeah.
Go listen to the show for the rest.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, hell yeah. Yeah, I really thank you for
coming on, man. Let me notify you at.
