Ever had a song stuck in your head that wasn't quite what you expected? That's how I felt when I first heard Wolfman Jack's spin on Neil Diamond's classic "Sweet Caroline." Join me on Pat's Peeps Podcast as we celebrate the quirky, laugh-out-loud moments of radio's golden age, featuring hilarity from Howard Cosell's infamous live broadcast mishap with boxer Scott Ledoux. With a mix of nostalgia and humor, we pay tribute to these iconic figures who turned everyday broadcasts into unforgettable experiences.
But wait, there's more! Embark on a zany adventure exploring subjects you never knew you needed to laugh about—like the art of whistling and the odd fame of U-Hauls, complete with an original song you can't miss. And who could forget those chipmunk-voiced mischief makers, Alvin and the Chipmunks? We'll even take a lighthearted detour into the world of dog training and end with a salute to personal space through the whimsical musical ode, "My Bathroom." Fasten your seatbelts for an evening filled with unexpected joy and the charm of life's little absurdities!

I don't know.
I just felt like it tonight.

I don't know why.
I'm enjoying it very much.
Pat's Peeps 184.
It's dark outside as I take alook out my studio windows into
(00:52):
the beautiful foothills ofNorthern California, but today
was a lovely day and I workedall day.
I mean, I worked all dayyesterday and today.
I don't know if that's thegreatest way to spend a vacation
.
I mean, tomorrow is my last dayof my vacation.
When I say vacation, as Ialways tell you, I'm the host of
the Pat Walsh Show.
(01:12):
It was heard on the iHeartRadioapp free or free app and KFPK
in Sacramento.
But I've had a couple of weeksoff to rejuvenate.
I needed it, I tell you.
But tomorrow's my last day offand then back to work.
On Monday we begin a new year,Positive things to look forward
(01:35):
to, Wherever you are.
Thank you for listening tonight.
I just thought I'd like I say,do this one on a Saturday and,
quite frankly, the only thing Ihave on my mind is just goofing
off.
So I have nothing reallyrelevant in terms you know,
(01:59):
nothing earth shattering,nothing super important.
I need to break in on aSaturday for important stuff?
No, nothing super important.
I need to break in on aSaturday for important stuff?
No, I don't.
I just had a collection ofthings that I find fascinating.
So, if you don't mind, here onBats Peeps 184, I have some
audio gems for you.
I love audio, so I've got alittle mishmash of a variety of
(02:27):
things here that we'll dive into.
On Pat's Peeps 184.
We'll start with this one.
Being a radio guy those of youwho enjoy radio, I certainly do
I love working in radio.
Tough business to be in.
But there are legends in thisbusiness.
One of the big legends, as weall know, is the great Wolfman.
(02:48):
Jack baby, that's right.
The Wolfman, that's right, youknow.
Wolfman put out some music ofhis own back in 1972.
Wolfman, Wolfman, he gave SweetCaroline.
You know the great Neil Diamondsong that's still sung at
ballparks when everyone's in afestive mood.
(03:11):
Wolfman thought he'd give thatclassic a try.
Speaker 3 (03:15):
Okay, when it began I can't begin to know when I only
know it's getting strong,growing every day.
Speaker 2 (03:34):
Sometime back in the spring.
And then spring became summer.
Who'd have believed that you'dcome along, hands touching hands
?
Who'd have believed that you'dcome along, hands touching hands
, reaching out, touching you,touching me.
Speaker 4 (04:00):
That's right, baby.
Speaker 2 (04:02):
That was me.
Yeah, baby, sweet Caroline,things ain't never been so good.
Look at the night and it don'tseem so lonely.
(04:26):
Baby Smooth, we fill it up withonly two, and when I hit it
just runs off my shoulder.
How can I hurt when I'm holdingon to you One?
How can I hurt when I'm holdingon to you One?
Speaker 5 (04:53):
Touching one.
Speaker 1 (04:56):
Reaching out, touching me, touching you.
Hey, now here we go.
Wolfman, these backup singersare serious.
Thank you, wolfman Jack,everyone, there he is.
There he is, ladies andgentlemen, the great Wolfman.
(05:16):
That's right, baby.
And if they ever ask you whatthe Pat's Peeps podcast is about
, or my radio show, the Pat WolfShow, probably I can't figure
it out myself.
Here is Scott Ladeau.
Scott Ladeau is a former boxer.
Scott Ladeau was fightingJohnny Boudreau back in the day.
(05:40):
You know Howard Cosell, one ofthe great broadcasters of all
time.
Just recently we were talkingabout broadcasters here on Pat's
Peeps 184, we present ScottLedoux talking about the time
where he knocked off this is.
You got to see the video too.
(06:01):
By the way, he knocked offHoward Cosell's toupee live,
live on ABC television.
Scott Ledoux, that guy couldfight.
Speaker 6 (06:13):
by the way, it was so frustrating to me that I had
won the fight and Papa Joe saidyou won this fight and
afterwards to get a decision, togo to Johnny Boudreaux and
prior to that I was training inMontreal and they were asking me
about the fight with BoudreauxI said I'm gonna.
I'm gonna knock him down, kickhis butt and beat him up.
(06:36):
And they said you won't get thedecision.
And I said what do you mean?
I won't get the decision?
We were on on the street, it'salready done.
And so I went to the NavalAcademy and fought and they held
true.
I lost the decision.
(06:57):
I got through the ropes andstood on the ring and hollered
at Cosell you tell it like it is, howard, you tell the truth.
And then Howard was looking upat me and then Johnny Boudreau
was looking up at me and saidsomething about my mother, and
so I tried to kick him in theface and he jumped back and his
(07:20):
foot got tangled in HowardCosell's headset, took his
toupee off.
I have that on film on a discthat isolates the toupee.
I look at it every winter andjust kind of run it back and
forth and it makes me laugh.
Speaker 1 (07:39):
Scott Ledoux.
It's great man.
I can't believe it took me allthese years to see that.
You know we just heard WolfmanJack doing a Neil Diamond song.
Sweet Caroline, speaking ofNeil Diamond, you ever heard
this one?
Here's Neil Diamond.

smoking pot and I had saw somepeople smoking pot and I bought
myself a nickel bag and I wentbehind my building and sat on a

Speaker 1 (17:50):
Thank you very much.
U-haul trailer song right therefor you.
You know one thing that I doenjoy doing and people tell me
all the time oh, you're a goodwhistler.
Little vibrato in there, alittle vibrato in there.
(18:13):
They have some very oldinstructional whistling videos
that you can check.
Here's Fred Lowry.
It's a rare instructional videoon how to whistle.
In case you don't know how towhistle, he'll teach you.
Speaker 8 (18:36):
I'll try to go along with it.
Yes, whistling is real fun andI'm going to try to show you how
it's done.
But first of all let's talk alittle bit about breathing.
When you get up in the morning,stand erect shoulders back.
Speaker 1 (18:48):
Oh, that's for sure You're not joking, Fred.
How'd you know?
Take a real deep breath, likethis that guy needs to get some
of that.
He's got like nasal congestion.
Take a deep breath like thisShit.
Speaker 8 (19:16):
Always keep your mouth closed when deep breathing
.
Now, try and do this at least10 or 15 times in the morning
and at least 10 or 15 times atnight before you go to bed.
You'll find it very effective.
Sure, now we're ready for thewhistle, and first of all,
briefly, let's just take a fewdo's and don'ts when you whistle
try and keep a real pleasingpucker.
Speaker 1 (19:39):
In other words don't pucker your lips too tight.
It might be a good idea if youget a mirror, yeah get a mirror
for your pleasing puckerPractice.
What are you doing in there,honey?
I'm just trying to find mypleasing pucker.
That's good dear.
Speaker 8 (19:49):
Your facial expressions as pleasing as
possible for others to look at.
Speaker 1 (19:56):
As pleasing as possible for others to look at.
You don't want to be an uglywhistler.
Speaker 8 (20:02):
Second, always breathe in and then whistle on
the outtake of the breath.
Don't whistle while breathingin, because this cools your
vocal cords.
Speaker 1 (20:13):
Let me whistle on it.
I don't ever do that.
Let me try to whistle him.
I'm going to whistle out to him.
Let's see, that's not a goodone.
No one does that.
Speaker 8 (20:30):
No one whistles in oh and one other thing, uh-huh.
When you're whistling, I'vealways found it best to keep the
tongue right back of the teeth.
You'll get the best resultsthis way and get a more
beautiful whistle.
First of all, let's take someexercises.
Here's the first one.
You'll notice that this is justa plain whistle.
(21:01):
Later on I'm going to give youa little exercise to get a
beautiful little tremolo on yourwhistle, something like the
violin.
And then let's take the nextlittle exercise.
You notice, the first one islegato and staccato, or the
(21:23):
first one.
Speaker 1 (21:23):
We connect the notes.
Thank you, ed Lowry, everyone.
There he is.
Hopefully you learned somethingand now you'll know how to
whistle you.
Look, you can impress yourfriends.
Here's something extremelyannoying.
The song was annoying to beginwith in 1995, but then you hand
it over to alvin and thechipmunks.
It takes annoying to an all-newlevel.
(21:46):
Already annoyed most of you,already annoyed put your hand up
in the air like you just don'tcare.
That's peeps 184.
(22:07):

They all want me.
They can't have me.
So they all come and dance inthe tightrope, move with me,
chat with me and if you're good,I'll let you dance with me.
(22:46):

amazing results.
It is very important that youfollow our program step by step.
Very important Workingknowledge of our methods before
(24:01):
you start working with your dog.
The recording to which you arenow listening is a revolutionary
breakthrough in dog training.
There are many books on themarket written about dog
psychology and training.
We have found that the averagedog owner has little patience
reading 300 to 400 pages of dogmagic.
Speaker 1 (24:20):
It's my wife, miriam, on the organ and theory.
Speaker 7 (24:24):
And the keyboard.
What they are concerned aboutis training that works.
This is why our Can9International Training School is
so successful.
Our personal, professionalapproach offers training that is
humane, easy to understand andobtains quick results.
Right Before you actually startworking with your dog, you must
practice our methods and becompletely familiar with them.
(24:47):
Reviewing this recordingfrequently and reading your dog
dynamics manual thoroughly willgreatly increase your
effectiveness as a dog trainer.
You should work with your dogseveral times a day.
All sessions need be only atotal of 10 to 12 minutes of
concentrated effort spaced atleast two hours apart.
(25:08):
If possible, all family members.
Speaker 1 (25:10):
Yeah, just get on with it pal shown you a method
that works Well.
Speaker 7 (25:14):
I would never correct Rover.
I just can't live a life offrustration.
Speaker 1 (25:19):
Here's the guy, the guy's chastising one of the
listeners, one of the guys youknow, one of the dog owners.
Speaker 7 (25:27):
For an example, we have with us today a dropout
from our training school.
A dropout.
Speaker 1 (25:33):
You couldn't handle it.
Could you bunk?
That's our training school.
A little too tough for you.
Huh, you're at CanineInternational, mr Timid.
Have you ever corrected?
Did he call him Mr Timid?
Did he call him Mr Timid?
Hey, hey, who you calling MrTimid?
You call me Mr Timid.
Hey, who you calling Mr Timid?
You call me Mr Timid.
Do I look timid to you?
(25:54):
This came out in 78.
Speaker 7 (25:58):
This type of person's cruelty, yeah yeah, right,
where's Mr Timid?
For an example we have with ustoday a dropout from our
training school.
Mr Timid, have you evercorrected your dog's jumping and
barking problem?
No, I haven't.
Well, why not?
We've shown you a method thatworks.
Well, I would never correctRover, I just can't be that
(26:22):
cruel.
He will probably straighten upanyway.
May I ask what you will do withhim if he doesn't straighten up
, be it as little?
Oh, I may give him away to somegood home.
The chances are that the peopleyou give your problem to, mr
Timid, will not have very muchpatience with him, as they have
(26:42):
no real attachment to him.
I didn't think of that.
Speaker 1 (26:47):
Mr Timid, ladies and gentlemen, you know it's been a
long time since I'd heard of MrTimid.
It's good to hear from Mr Timidagain.
Ah, pat's Peeps 184.
I think I'm gonna wrap thingsup a little early, you know a
little quicker.
Podcast today nothing off theshelf today, nothing off of the
shelf.
I'm just gonna continue withthis theme.
(27:08):
How about this one?
I think this will be a greatone to end it with.
This is from the 1960s.
This is from Everything isComing Up Prophets, the Golden
Age of Industrial Musicals,volume One, which, by the way,
this is indeed an audiocompanion to the book, in case
(27:31):
you were wondering.
All right, so let's go back tothis.
It was a great year.
I mean, it was an amazing year,moon landing, woodstock.
I mean just an incredible year,1969.
So this one gets overlooked alot.
This is by.

Wolfman, Wolfman, he gave SweetCaroline.
You know the great Neil Diamondsong that's still sung at
ballparks when everyone's in afestive mood.
(03:11):
Wolfman thought he'd give thatclassic a try.
Speaker 3 (03:15):
Okay, when it began I can't begin to know when I only
know it's getting strong,growing every day.
Speaker 2 (03:34):
Sometime back in the spring.
And then spring became summer.
Who'd have believed that you'dcome along, hands touching hands
?
Who'd have believed that you'dcome along, hands touching hands
, reaching out, touching you,touching me.
Speaker 4 (04:00):
That's right, baby.
Speaker 2 (04:02):
That was me.
Yeah, baby, sweet Caroline,things ain't never been so good.
Look at the night and it don'tseem so lonely.
(04:26):
Baby Smooth, we fill it up withonly two, and when I hit it
just runs off my shoulder.
How can I hurt when I'm holdingon to you One?
How can I hurt when I'm holdingon to you One?
Speaker 5 (04:53):
Touching one.
Speaker 1 (04:56):
Reaching out, touching me, touching you.
Hey, now here we go.
Wolfman, these backup singersare serious.
Thank you, wolfman Jack,everyone, there he is.
There he is, ladies andgentlemen, the great Wolfman.
(05:16):
That's right, baby.
And if they ever ask you whatthe Pat's Peeps podcast is about
, or my radio show, the Pat WolfShow, probably I can't figure
it out myself.
Here is Scott Ladeau.
Scott Ladeau is a former boxer.
Scott Ladeau was fightingJohnny Boudreau back in the day.
(05:40):
You know Howard Cosell, one ofthe great broadcasters of all
time.
Just recently we were talkingabout broadcasters here on Pat's
Peeps 184, we present ScottLedoux talking about the time
where he knocked off this is.
You got to see the video too.
(06:01):
By the way, he knocked offHoward Cosell's toupee live,
live on ABC television.
Scott Ledoux, that guy couldfight.
Speaker 6 (06:13):
by the way, it was so frustrating to me that I had
won the fight and Papa Joe saidyou won this fight and
afterwards to get a decision, togo to Johnny Boudreaux and
prior to that I was training inMontreal and they were asking me
about the fight with BoudreauxI said I'm gonna.
I'm gonna knock him down, kickhis butt and beat him up.
(06:36):
And they said you won't get thedecision.
And I said what do you mean?
I won't get the decision?
We were on on the street, it'salready done.
And so I went to the NavalAcademy and fought and they held
true.
I lost the decision.
(06:57):
I got through the ropes andstood on the ring and hollered
at Cosell you tell it like it is, howard, you tell the truth.
And then Howard was looking upat me and then Johnny Boudreau
was looking up at me and saidsomething about my mother, and
so I tried to kick him in theface and he jumped back and his
(07:20):
foot got tangled in HowardCosell's headset, took his
toupee off.
I have that on film on a discthat isolates the toupee.
I look at it every winter andjust kind of run it back and
forth and it makes me laugh.
Speaker 1 (07:39):
Scott Ledoux.
It's great man.
I can't believe it took me allthese years to see that.
You know we just heard WolfmanJack doing a Neil Diamond song.
Sweet Caroline, speaking ofNeil Diamond, you ever heard
this one?
Here's Neil Diamond.

Speaker 1 (17:50):
Thank you very much.
U-haul trailer song right therefor you.
You know one thing that I doenjoy doing and people tell me
all the time oh, you're a goodwhistler.
Little vibrato in there, alittle vibrato in there.
(18:13):
They have some very oldinstructional whistling videos
that you can check.
Here's Fred Lowry.
It's a rare instructional videoon how to whistle.
In case you don't know how towhistle, he'll teach you.
Speaker 8 (18:36):
I'll try to go along with it.
Yes, whistling is real fun andI'm going to try to show you how
it's done.
But first of all let's talk alittle bit about breathing.
When you get up in the morning,stand erect shoulders back.
Speaker 1 (18:48):
Oh, that's for sure You're not joking, Fred.
How'd you know?
Take a real deep breath, likethis that guy needs to get some
of that.
He's got like nasal congestion.
Take a deep breath like thisShit.
Speaker 8 (19:16):
Always keep your mouth closed when deep breathing
.
Now, try and do this at least10 or 15 times in the morning
and at least 10 or 15 times atnight before you go to bed.
You'll find it very effective.
Sure, now we're ready for thewhistle, and first of all,
briefly, let's just take a fewdo's and don'ts when you whistle
try and keep a real pleasingpucker.
Speaker 1 (19:39):
In other words don't pucker your lips too tight.
It might be a good idea if youget a mirror, yeah get a mirror
for your pleasing puckerPractice.
What are you doing in there,honey?
I'm just trying to find mypleasing pucker.
That's good dear.
Speaker 8 (19:49):
Your facial expressions as pleasing as
possible for others to look at.
Speaker 1 (19:56):
As pleasing as possible for others to look at.
You don't want to be an uglywhistler.
Speaker 8 (20:02):
Second, always breathe in and then whistle on
the outtake of the breath.
Don't whistle while breathingin, because this cools your
vocal cords.
Speaker 1 (20:13):
Let me whistle on it.
I don't ever do that.
Let me try to whistle him.
I'm going to whistle out to him.
Let's see, that's not a goodone.
No one does that.
Speaker 8 (20:30):
No one whistles in oh and one other thing, uh-huh.
When you're whistling, I'vealways found it best to keep the
tongue right back of the teeth.
You'll get the best resultsthis way and get a more
beautiful whistle.
First of all, let's take someexercises.
Here's the first one.
You'll notice that this is justa plain whistle.
(21:01):
Later on I'm going to give youa little exercise to get a
beautiful little tremolo on yourwhistle, something like the
violin.
And then let's take the nextlittle exercise.
You notice, the first one islegato and staccato, or the
(21:23):
first one.
Speaker 1 (21:23):
We connect the notes.
Thank you, ed Lowry, everyone.
There he is.
Hopefully you learned somethingand now you'll know how to
whistle you.
Look, you can impress yourfriends.
Here's something extremelyannoying.
The song was annoying to beginwith in 1995, but then you hand
it over to alvin and thechipmunks.
It takes annoying to an all-newlevel.
(21:46):
Already annoyed most of you,already annoyed put your hand up
in the air like you just don'tcare.
That's peeps 184.
(22:07):
Here to annoy you.

They all want me.
They can't have me.
So they all come and dance inthe tightrope, move with me,
chat with me and if you're good,I'll let you dance with me.
(22:46):
Oh God, I left the world while Iwas eating macarons.
I left the world while I waseating macarons.

(24:01):
you start working with your dog.
The recording to which you arenow listening is a revolutionary
breakthrough in dog training.
There are many books on themarket written about dog
psychology and training.
We have found that the averagedog owner has little patience
reading 300 to 400 pages of dogmagic.
Speaker 1 (24:20):
It's my wife, miriam, on the organ and theory.
Speaker 7 (24:24):

dynamics manual thoroughly willgreatly increase your
effectiveness as a dog trainer.
You should work with your dogseveral times a day.
All sessions need be only atotal of 10 to 12 minutes of
concentrated effort spaced atleast two hours apart.
(25:08):
If possible, all family members.
Speaker 1 (25:10):
Yeah, just get on with it pal shown you a method
that works Well.
Speaker 7 (25:14):
I would never correct Rover.
I just can't live a life offrustration.
Speaker 1 (25:19):
Here's the guy, the guy's chastising one of the
listeners, one of the guys youknow, one of the dog owners.
Speaker 7 (25:27):
For an example, we have with us today a dropout
from our training school.
A dropout.
Speaker 1 (25:33):
You couldn't handle it.
Could you bunk?
That's our training school.
A little too tough for you.
Huh, you're at CanineInternational, mr Timid.

Did he call him Mr Timid?
Did he call him Mr Timid?
Hey, hey, who you calling MrTimid?
You call me Mr Timid.
Hey, who you calling Mr Timid?
You call me Mr Timid.
Do I look timid to you?
(25:54):
This came out in 78.
Speaker 7 (25:58):
This type of person's cruelty, yeah yeah, right,
where's Mr Timid?
For an example we have with ustoday a dropout from our
training school.
Mr Timid, have you evercorrected your dog's jumping and
barking problem?
No, I haven't.
Well, why not?
We've shown you a method thatworks.
Well, I would never correctRover, I just can't be that
(26:22):
cruel.
He will probably straighten upanyway.
May I ask what you will do withhim if he doesn't straighten up
, be it as little?
Oh, I may give him away to somegood home.
The chances are that the peopleyou give your problem to, mr
Timid, will not have very muchpatience with him, as they have
(26:42):
no real attachment to him.
I didn't think of that.
Speaker 1 (26:47):
Mr Timid, ladies and gentlemen, you know it's been a
long time since I'd heard of MrTimid.
It's good to hear from Mr Timidagain.
Ah, pat's Peeps 184.
I think I'm gonna wrap thingsup a little early, you know a
little quicker.
Podcast today nothing off theshelf today, nothing off of the
shelf.
I'm just gonna continue withthis theme.
(27:08):
How about this one?
I think this will be a greatone to end it with.
This is from the 1960s.
This is from Everything isComing Up Prophets, the Golden
Age of Industrial Musicals,volume One, which, by the way,
this is indeed an audiocompanion to the book, in case
(27:31):
you were wondering.
All right, so let's go back tothis.
It was a great year.
I mean, it was an amazing year,moon landing, woodstock.
