When rain taps against your window, do you reach for Pink Floyd? When summer heat blazes, does Sublime suddenly sound perfect? This fascinating episode explores how our musical preferences adapt to weather conditions, offering a wonderfully personal glimpse into the psychological connection between climate and soundtrack.
Pat celebrates a record-breaking week for the podcast while announcing an exciting upcoming birthday interview with Grand Funk Railroad founder Mark Farner. The conversation meanders through his brother's frustrating 300-mile journey to a car dealership only to discover Gorilla Glue holding a fender together, launching into hilarious "badger" car salesman commercial parodies that perfectly capture the universal dread of automotive shopping.
The episode's true heart emerges when Pat examines his weather-dependent music selections, sharing how acoustic Jethro Tull feels right on rainy days while Sublime hits differently during summer heat. This leads to a fascinating exploration of déjà vu - that strange sensation we've experienced something before - complete with scientific explanations and personal anecdotes about memory triggers.
Vinyl collectors will appreciate Pat's spotlight on a rare Beach Boys 45 of "Sail On Sailor" featuring the famous original pressing error (missing comma!), demonstrating how deep musical appreciation extends beyond casual listening into historical significance.
Whether you're a weather watcher, music lover, or psychology enthusiast, this episode offers something uniquely thought-provoking about how our environment shapes our listening experience. Have you noticed your own musical weather patterns? Share your thoughts with our growing Pats Peeps community!

Speaker 1 (00:22):
Hey there, welcome to the Pats Peeps podcast.
We are at number 260.
That's right, my friends, todayis a Monday, may, the 12th 2025
.
Days away from a birthday.
I may have a special guest.
I don't usually work on mybirthday, but I may have, you
(00:46):
know, because your birthday isso I don't know, it's just your
day.
I've always looked at it.
I'll do what I just want to do,what I want to do on my
birthday.
God knows how many more I'llhave Hopefully many, but I think
I'm going to have a veryspecial guest joining me on my
podcast on my birthday.
More to come on that news.
(01:08):
First things first, though, asit is a Monday, like I said, may
12th, today I look out mystudio windows into the
beautiful foothills of NorthernCalifornia, gold country, my
friends, and what happened tothe sun?
Where did it go?
I was loving the sunshine.
Today, though, spring continues.
(01:29):
It is now gray, with a slighthint of the sun it's trying to
peek through.
Actually, I think it'll be goodfor some of the plants, some of
the I don't know, just for thegardens and things people have
been, you know, and every weedeating is a whole thing up here,
which is just a nightmare.
(01:49):
I can't stand the weeding butuh, but the whole neighborhood's
like that, but anyhow it's agray day with some sun peeking
through.
How about that?
Uh, very happy here that todayto report, to say to you thank
you, because I think last weekwas probably for whatever reason
(02:12):
perhaps it was Barry Manilowjoining us.
Whatever the reason we had ourone of our biggest weeks ever
here on the podcast.
It was my biggest week on thepodcast for our community here,
the Pats Peeps community.
You know, the only week thatwas actually bigger and got more
(02:37):
people listening was in Marchwhen my son, timothy, passed
away, and I don't it's hard forme to mark that as any kind of
weird milestone or success,considering people were just
wanting to know, maybe, whathappened to my son, because
people are very caring, so youknow.
(02:58):
So that was a specialcircumstance, but without and I
guess you might say on the flipside of that, on the good side
of things, you know, havingguests like Barry Manilow on is
a good circumstance, which itcertainly is.
But I would say that almost allthe I mean all of the podcasts,
not almost all all of them ofthe podcast we got a lot of
(03:22):
listens last week.
So, again, I guess what I'mtrying to say as I ramble on is
thank you.
I mean, I tell you it means somuch, you know, and people
telling their friends, you know,I people saying they're going
out of town, they're listening,and I could name names, but I
don't want to leave anyone offthe list, just like I don't want
to leave anyone off the list.
Say thank you, by the way, tothose who showed up.
(03:42):

only the podcast, but on theshow.
And thanks to everyone whoshowed up for this birthday
(04:05):

I'm not really going to call ita birthday party.
It really wasn't a birthdayparty, but some people were kind
enough to bring gifts a fewdays early for my birthday,
which is Friday.
But it's just like thiscommunity of people that have
gotten to know each other.
I probably mentioned it before,just through the show and
through the podcast.
So I wouldn't mention all ofyou and or all of them, but I
(04:29):
don't want to leave anyone offthe list.
And, by the way, if you want tojoin us, feel free get in touch
with us.
I'd love to hear from you tojoin our and we did karaoke
during our gathering.
We did did karaoke.
Everyone sang so well the othernight.
It was quite amazing, I have tosay, but just kind of talking
(04:51):
to everyone was really cool, youknow, getting to know everyone
out there.
So thank you to everyone.
I'll say at least Darlene witha Y, because she's the one that
corrals everyone up at theDarlene with the Y Ranch up in
the hills, and thank you to herthat this keeps going, keeps
(05:11):
growing Will.
Looks like I'm going to have avery special guest, another
rocker on my show, this time arocker on the Pat's Peeps
podcast on my birthday.
As I said, I don't usually workon my birthday, but it looks
like Mark Farner will be joiningus.
Grand Funk founder, Grand Funk,grand Funk Railroad, is going
(05:35):
to be joining me on the podcast,which I'm really, really
looking forward to.
That conversation We'll go indepth with him.
We'll have more than eightminutes.
Ah, hold on, I dropped myrecord.
I don't want to ever drop theserecords, my little 45s.
They're very rare, don't wantto abuse those.
So, yeah, I'm looking forwardto having Mark Farner.
(05:56):
If those of you are rockers andyou're into Grand Funk, grand
Funk Railroad, then you'll enjoythis conversation.
I think Yesterday was kind ofinteresting.
My brother called me, mybrother Steve.
God bless my brother, steve man, all your brothers and sisters
too.
If you have none, god bless you, your family, whatever, all of
(06:17):
you.
Steve calls me up, he's ah Pat,I drove down.
Do you know anyone who's in thecar dealer business?
I said no, I don't, and then Iwill not repeat what I said
after that.
But I'm not a big fan of goingto the car dealer.
(06:40):
I'm just letting you know Idon't like going.
I don't like the experience ofgoing and buying a car.
It's interesting to think aboutgetting that new car and the
new car smell.
It's great to have that new car.
Don't get me wrong.
It's the experience of dealingwith a dealership.
(07:01):
You know what I mean dealingwith and I mean no offense.
If you're a car salesperson, Iknow you're just doing your job,
but I just don't enjoy theexperience because there's so
many people involved.
You know the whole thing.
It's not you, never, it's wellknown.
(07:21):
It's not just me, but Stevecalls and he's like ah man.
I's not just me, but Stevecalls and he's like ah man.
I said I don't know anyone,steve, and I don't want to get
into any stories with him aboutany of this from my end, anyhow.
But I was there to listen to mybrother's experience, to which
he began to tell me he went toHayward.
They're looking for a car forhis son, william, and so they
(07:44):
drive to Hayward.
Now, my brother Steve, he isn'tall about driving to Hayward
for nothing, but in this case itmust have.
He must have really needed acar or saw one online, as he
said.
That looked really good and toogood to believe, or whatever
the case may be.
(08:04):
So he drives down there.
Ah yeah, to drive a round tripof 300 miles.
That doesn't make me happy.
He can be very grouchy.
I love you, steve, but in thatregard where he's got to drive
like that for something likethat, he can be a little grouchy
.
Now, if we were going to aconcert, that'd be one thing,
but this is to go deal with thecar sales experience and he's
(08:29):
like man.
I'm telling you, pat, this I Ican't listen in.
In order for me to even relaythis story, relate the story to
you.
I need to clean it up so much Ican't drop all the F-bombs that
were used.
Pat, I'm telling you now, man,beep, beep, beep, this little
(08:52):
weasel beep Trying to get me torun around, making me sit there
like I'm some chump.
This weasel ass bleep.
Poor Mary.
Mary's my sister-in-law.
She's got to listen to me.
I'm grumpy, turning into a bear.
(09:14):
Now we're going to drive 115miles, 20 miles back.
She's got to deal with me.
I feel so bad.
I was in such a crappy mood.
This is my brother.

But here's the car.
Like this is the badger, thecar salesman badger.
Speaker 3 (09:50):
Well, selling the car is just like fishing, wilbur

real slow.

Come to any Johnson Automotivedealer, oh God.
Speaker 1 (11:43):
Oh crud, that makes me laugh.
I was listening to the musicearlier.
My music changes.
My musical tastes changedepending on the weather and I
listen to a lot of music.
(12:04):
Okay, I love that badger.
When it's raining like this,like it's raining today, off and
on, anytime it rains and it'sbeen nice, does your mood change
?
Does your musical mood change?
(12:24):
If you're a musical person,mine changes drastically, like
today.
Here's what I was going, what Iwas.
So this would be like uh, thisis my rainy day, moody music.
I would have like jethro tullacoustic.
Speaker 2 (12:51):
There's a haze on the skyline To wish me on my way,
just like that.
Speaker 1 (13:00):
It's almost like I mean, it's just Now.
But if it's summertime, well,let's see.
What else would it be.
Oh, this might be like rainyday music for me.
I don't own the rights to thisrainy day music.
(13:25):
Pink Floyd Shine On my rainyday music Into the gloom.
Does your musical mood changedepending on the weather?
So if that would be like mywintertime, my summer music,
(13:52):
like now, all of a sudden, let'ssay, it's 100 degrees out, it'd
be something like this.
It would change to maybe I'mjust thinking of examples

Your people were rude.
When I came to pick up the car,I had to wait for hours and I
stood there in the rain.
And then the car finally came.
Well, it was dirty and itsmelled like a sock.
Speaker 4 (16:07):

Speaker 4 (16:46):
Come to any johnson automotive dealership.
Speaker 1 (16:49):
There you go I gotta hand that to you, johnson.
Make it fun of yourselfSelf-deprecating.
I love that.
Whoever came up with that very,very good idea?
Wow, you know, when I waslooking at this record that I
pulled from my Rare 45collection today, I was sitting
(17:09):
here thinking, because you know,know, when I'm doing these
podcasts, I'm trying not to playthe same record twice, and I
knew that at some point, if Ireally didn't keep track which,
honestly, I'm not being honestwith you on that I should be,
but I'm not I for some reason, Ithink well, my mind will be
(17:32):
able to remember if I put it inor not, and it might be which
leads me to wonder if I'veplayed this one before or not,
or featured on my Pat's Peepspodcast, or whether or not it's
deja vu.
Anyone have deja vu?
You ever get that it could bedeja vu?
(17:57):
Anyone have deja vu?
You ever get that it could bedeja vu?
Hmm, I need to think about that.
Yeah, people, you know mybrother going back to the car
salesman thing he does not like.
See, now I'm having a deja vu.
Right now I can't escape it.
Once you think you're having it, you can't escape it, or I
can't, hmm.
(18:21):
So my brother did not buy thecar, said there was Gorilla Glue
under the fender holding ittogether, said pat, like I'm so
dumb I'm not gonna even noticethat there's gorilla glue
holding the fender together andthey won't knock any money, any
(18:42):
money off of the.
You know they won't discountthe car, he says.
I pointed out to the guys like,oh man, I would have never
looked under there and even seenthat.
He says really, and I guessapparently they had all these
safety checks or inspections oryou know, the car was inspected
numerous times that's accordingto my brother, which you would
(19:03):
imagine.
They would at least inspect thecar, I guess, before they sell
it.
What do I know?
Anyhow, he's like, yeah, it'sall held together with gorilla
glue.
And then, you know, gorillaglue breaks down over time and
he starts explaining all of thisstuff.
But a lot of people they don'tlike going into the dealing with
a car salesman.
You know why?
Because there is thisperception of dishonesty.
(19:24):
I'm not suggesting that carsalesmen are dishonest, I'm just
saying there is this perception.
You know, like high pressuretactics, they're not being
honest as you go through theprocess of, you know, the sales
process, they're not beingtransparent.
(19:45):
A lot of people think they'rebeing pressured to make a quick
decision May not be getting thebest deal.
You know how it is, especiallyif they really don't know what
they're doing in terms ofnegotiating with a car.
I don't, I mean, I feel veryself-assured, I don't feel like
I can.
I'm going to let anyone rip meoff.
But guess what?
(20:05):
I know for a fact when I'vebeen ripped off and I can, I
know, I look back on it now andI go, oh, they ripped me this,
this person did that, I.
I remember them and again, whenthat happens, I mean the
reputation takes a hit.
You know of that occupation.
(20:26):
I'm not trying to againOccupation.
I'm not trying to again, I'mnot trying to.
You know, put anyone down who'sworking in that occupation.
There are very honest carsalesmen too that work very hard
and very long hours.
To those who are honest anddon't rip people off, hey,
(20:51):
here's to you.
But there is that perceiveddishonesty.
Some are known for usingmanipulative tactics.
Making false promises, tryingto get the customer to buy it
can make things very unpleasant.
The process.
They might be aggressive.
They may try to employ thesestrategies that are more
(21:11):
aggressive, making you feel likeyou better buy it immediately.
You're going to miss out onthis.
This is the deal can make youas a customer feel uncomfortable
and awkward.
You know the whole thing lackof transparency, negotiation
challenges, um, some of thecustomer service lacks, to say
(21:33):
the least.
That's not the only business itwould, but you know, some
customers report being treatedpoorly by the car salesman lack
of respect, lack of attention topay to their, their needs.
Also, a lot of customers arenot really that comfortable
negotiating prices on their own.
Maybe feel like they're beingtaken advantage of by the
(21:55):
salesman.
They were trained to maximizethe profits.
Plus there's, you know, buyinga car.
That's a pretty significantthing, right, it's a big
financial decision.
So then you hesitate Did youmake a mistake or am I being
taken advantage of?
In your mind it starts ringingup like a cash register.
(22:17):
Then you take that pen in yourhand and you're on the verge and
they have you in that officeand they've got that lengthy
piece of paper and next thingyou know you're signing like 20
different things.
You just sign, sign, sign.
And they know no one's going togo and read all the fine print
on this.
Right, you're not going to gothrough it.
Maybe some people do.
But they'll just tell you right, they guide you through it.
(22:40):
Yeah, this one here.
This means that you'll be inblah, blah, blah and you know
for so many miles or whatever.
You know the coverage, blah,blah, just sign there.
Okay, signing Because you wantto get out of there, because
they wear you down.
I remember one time in 1999, Ikid you, not August of 99, might
have been the end of July 99, Iwas in the place for 12 hours
(23:04):
and that's where much of thedisdain for the process, you
know, really happened for me, 12hours, it was unnecessary.
Process, you know, reallyhappened for me, 12 hours, it
was unnecessary.
This vehicle was on theshowroom floor, this four-wheel
drive chevy four by.
So I bought it took 12 hoursand there's other things.
(23:24):
But anyhow, I'm not here to bagon car sales people.
I'm just telling you where thatgot me thinking yesterday.
I I might bring that up on myshow tonight.
Is there probably people thatwould share all kinds of stories
about that?
Again, I don't know if I'm stillhaving the deja vu or not, but
I kind of felt like I was havinga deja vu, you know where you
(23:47):
uh, it's like that phenomenonwhere you feel like you've
already done this, like I'mstill kind of feeling that right
now it doesn't happen.
Very often they say it is anillusion of memory.
I mean, you have a.
I looked up deja vu.
Here's what it says.
(24:07):
Despite a strong sense ofrecollection, the time, place
and context of the previousexperience are uncertain or
impossible.
Approximately two-thirds ofsurveyed populations report
experiencing deja vu at leastone time in their lives and the
phenomenon manifestsoccasionally as a symptom of
(24:29):
seizure auras.
Yeah, some researchers haveassociated chronic or frequent
pathological deja vu withneurological or psychiatric
illness.
Well, I don't have them veryoften, rarely Experiencing.
They say deja vu has beencorrelated with higher
(24:51):
socioeconomic status Probablynot the case with me either.
Better educational attainmentwho knows, excuse me and lower
ages.
That's obvious.
Obviously the case for me.
With the lower age thing.
(25:14):
People who travel often oh,people who travel often,
frequently watch films orfrequently remember their dreams
are also more likely to reportexperiencing deja vu than others
.
So I do travel.
I don't watch a lot of films,but I do remember dreams.
Anyone, do you remember yourdreams?
Hmm, that's another one thatmight be kind of interesting.
(25:40):
I'm thinking of all kinds ofstuff for my radio show tonight.
I can ask about deja vu.
Car salesman, yeah yeah, carsalesman, uh uh yeah, because
maybe people have uh opinionsand thoughts on that.
Uh, the first, by the way, theterm was deja vu for issues by
(26:03):
emile borak in 1876, who was afrench philosopher whose book
which I will not try topronounce the Future of Psychic
Sciences in English, thank youincluded the sensation of deja
(26:26):
vu as presented by Emil as areminiscence of memories.
Experiments have led scientiststo suspect that deja vu is a
memory phenomenon.
We encounter a situation thatis similar to an actual memory,
but we can't fully recall thatmemory.
This evidence that'sinteresting, found by by meal,
(26:51):
helps the uh again, boric, Ihope don't know if I'm saying
that we're correct, I mean nodisrespect, but anyhow helps the
public understand what deja vucan entail on the average brain.
It was also stated, uh, by thisgentleman that our brain
recognizes the similaritiesbetween our current experiences
and one in the past, left with afeeling of familiarity that we
(27:14):
cannot quite place.
Throughout the history, they saythere have been many theories
about what may cause deja vu.
Does this happen to you?
Does everyone have deja vu?
I don't want to get into likethis.
There's medical disorders,pharmacology, there's a split
(27:38):
perception explanation Mayhappen if a person experiences a
current sensory experiencetwice successfully.
The first input experience isbrief, degraded, distracted.
Immediately following that, thesecond perception might be
familiar because the personnaturally related to the first.
(27:59):
Anyhow, memory-based explanation, research associating deja vu
experiences with good memoryfunctions that's great because I
feel like I have a good memory,particularly long-term memory,
they say.
And I feel like I have a verygood long-term memory.
They say and I feel like I havea very good long-term memory,
implicit memory, recognitionmemory, which enables people to
(28:20):
realize the event or activitythey are experiencing has
happened before it and okay.
So right there.
That's key to where I'm atright now.
So again, just to recap that,at least for my clarity,
(28:42):
research has associated deja vuexperiences with good memory
functions.
Again, I feel like I have anexcellent memory, particularly
long-term, which I do have.
That Implicit memory,recognition memory enables
(29:04):
people to realize the event oractivity they are experiencing
has happened before.
When people experience deja vu,they may have their recognition
memory triggered by certainsituations which they have never
encountered, hmm, by which theyhave never encountered.
Hmm.
That's fascinating Because,again, it feels like I've played
this record before, but maybeI'm having a deja vu Because
(29:25):
there's part of it that I'mgoing to say.
That's where it hit me.
Like did I say that before, ordid I just know that, or did I
say that on my Pat's peeps?
Yeah, there's a lot to go intothis.
I don't want to get into allthe depths of it, but yeah, so
(29:54):
there's.
I just you know the similaritybetween the deja vu eliciting
stimulus and an existing ornon-existing but different
memory trace, they say, may leadto the sensation that an event
or experience currently beingexperienced has already been
experienced in the past.
Thus, encountering somethingthat evokes the implicit
(30:17):
associations of an experiencedoes this make any sense?
Because there's going to be apop quiz that evokes the
implicit associations of anexperience or sensation that
cannot be remembered may lead todeja vu.
In an effort to reproduce thesensation experimentally,
(30:41):
bannister and Zagwill which, bythe way, one of my favorite
morning shows, I'm Bannister andI'm Zagwill, remember them,
late 80s Used hypnosis to giveparticipants post-hypnotic
amnesia for material they'dalready seen.
When this was laterre-encountered, the restricted
(31:01):
activation caused thereafter bythe post-hypnotic amnesia
resulted in three of the tenparticipants reporting what the
authors termed paramnesis,paramnesius, paramnesius,
paramnesius.
There you go, anyhow enough.
It's deja vu, for God's sakes,patrick.
(31:22):
With that in mind I still don'tknow if it was a deja vu or not
this record that I pulled,which is on a light yellow
record label, which is on let'ssee here, what is that?
(31:48):
Brother Records Boy.
It's so tiny Brother Records,pale yellow.
So tiny brother records, yellow, a pale yellow.
Nothing written on this sleeve,very different sleeve, okay.
So, oh, this song reminds me ofsummertime as, because it's
(32:13):
mislabeled, the song ismislabeled on the record and
original pressings.
So this is an original pressing, so the title is mislabeled on
the original pressings and Ihave that original pressing
where it is mislabeled.
That's what I'm looking at.
(32:34):
Song by an American rock bandfrom the 1973 album Holland,
primarily written by Van DykeParks You'll know exactly who
I'm talking about and BrianWilson with Ray Kennedy, tandon
Ulmer, jack Riley.
The lead singer of the song isBlondie Chaplin, making this one
(32:57):
of the band's few well-knownsongs not sung by Mike Love.
Of course I'm talking about theBeach Boys, not sung by Mike
Love, brian Wilson or CarlWilson.
This song was released as asingle in 1973.
This song was released as asingle in 1973, backed with Only
(33:24):
you that's the B-side peaked atnumber 79 on the Billboard
Singles Chart.
1975 reissue of the song, alsobacked by Only With you, charted
higher at number 49.
So this is the original version.
So that would have went tonumber 79.
Brian wilson himself um, okay,either I played this or I truly.
(33:49):
Again, I'm going back to thedeja vu.
I I may have played this.
Brian Wilson himself laterstated it's the only song that
we did.
He says that I absolutely donot like at all.
I never liked this song.
However, he personally selectedthe song as one of the 19 track
(34:09):
selections for the compilationclassics selected by Brian
Wilson, saying I love how thissong rocks.
So it just depends on whoyou're listening to.
I guess the song is perhaps theonly perennial Beach Boys
favorite to still live on onclassic albums, album, classic
(34:30):
rock albums, rock stations I'mtrying to say Classic rock
stations.
Album rock stations, I'm tryingto say Classic rock stations,
album rock stations, fm radioformats of the present day.
So even though originally hewas like yeah, you know I don't
like this song we did, it'sstill out there on the rock
(34:51):
stations.
I like it.
It's the Beach Boys.
Sail On Sailor, sail On commaSailor.
I sail in ocean.
Mine has no comma.
Speaker 5 (35:09):
I'm sailing ocean through restful waters and deep
commotion.
I rest the waters by Neptune'swaters, sail through the sorrows
(35:40):
Of life's marauders,unrepenting Of the empty.
Sail on sail on, sail on.
Caught like a sewer rat alonewould I sail, bought like a
(36:05):
crust of bread.
But oh, do I wail.
Seldom stumble, never crumble.
Try to tumble, my eyes rumble,feel the stinging I've been
given, never ending, unrelentingHeartbreak.
(36:27):
Searing, always fearing, neverclearing, persevering Sail on
sail, on, sail on.
Speaker 1 (36:38):
I gotta say this is actually one of my favorite
Beach Boys songs ever.
Speaker 5 (36:44):
The gale swept seaways.
Speaker 1 (36:47):
I can see why that one has remained on the FM rock
stations.
Don't own the song, not tryingto claim I do, I'm just trying
to play it.
You know I always have to saythat Flipping it over, here's
the B side, just letting peopleknow what's on the B, what would
be on the B side of Sail onSailor.
But again, it's Sail on Sailor.
(37:08):
That's the original pressingSail on Sailor.
There's no comma saying sail onsailor.
There's no comma.
But if you, when they redid it,they did it correctly Sail on
comma sailor.
So I have the sail on withoutthe comma, all right.
So the other side is, like Isaid, this is called Only With
(37:32):
you.
I'm not sure if I know this one, 1973.
Let's see, here we go BeachBoys Only With.
Speaker 2 (37:47):
You Love so many things that I feel I've only
felt with you, only with you.
And then there are the thingsthat we do, that I've only done
(38:18):
with you, only with you.
Before, love had always hadtheir ups and downs, until the
love I finally found, I know onething for sure, there you go,
(38:59):
Beach Boys only with you.
Speaker 1 (39:00):
Flip side of Sail On Sailor.
Thank you.
Thank you so much for listening.

Hey there, welcome to the Pats Peeps podcast.
We are at number 260.
That's right, my friends, todayis a Monday, may, the 12th 2025
.
Days away from a birthday.
I may have a special guest.
I don't usually work on mybirthday, but I may have, you
(00:46):
know, because your birthday isso I don't know, it's just your
day.
I've always looked at it.
I'll do what I just want to do,what I want to do on my
birthday.
God knows how many more I'llhave Hopefully many, but I think
I'm going to have a veryspecial guest joining me on my
podcast on my birthday.
More to come on that news.
(01:08):
First things first, though, asit is a Monday, like I said, may
12th, today I look out mystudio windows into the
beautiful foothills of NorthernCalifornia, gold country, my
friends, and what happened tothe sun?
Where did it go?
I was loving the sunshine.
Today, though, spring continues.
(01:29):
It is now gray, with a slighthint of the sun it's trying to
peek through.
Actually, I think it'll be goodfor some of the plants, some of
the I don't know, just for thegardens and things people have
been, you know, and every weedeating is a whole thing up here,
which is just a nightmare.
(01:49):
I can't stand the weeding butuh, but the whole neighborhood's
like that, but anyhow it's agray day with some sun peeking
through.
How about that?
Uh, very happy here that todayto report, to say to you thank
you, because I think last weekwas probably for whatever reason
(02:12):
perhaps it was Barry Manilowjoining us.
Whatever the reason we had ourone of our biggest weeks ever
here on the podcast.
It was my biggest week on thepodcast for our community here,
the Pats Peeps community.
You know, the only week thatwas actually bigger and got more
(02:37):
people listening was in Marchwhen my son, timothy, passed
away, and I don't it's hard forme to mark that as any kind of
weird milestone or success,considering people were just
wanting to know, maybe, whathappened to my son, because
people are very caring, so youknow.
(02:58):
So that was a specialcircumstance, but without and I
guess you might say on the flipside of that, on the good side
of things, you know, havingguests like Barry Manilow on is
a good circumstance, which itcertainly is.
But I would say that almost allthe I mean all of the podcasts,
not almost all all of them ofthe podcast we got a lot of
(03:22):
listens last week.
So, again, I guess what I'mtrying to say as I ramble on is
thank you.
I mean, I tell you it means somuch, you know, and people
telling their friends, you know,I people saying they're going
out of town, they're listening,and I could name names, but I
don't want to leave anyone offthe list, just like I don't want
to leave anyone off the list.
Say thank you, by the way, tothose who showed up.
(03:42):
By the way, I'm pat walsh.
I host the pat walsh showingkpk in sacramento kpk radio 93.1

But I, uh, we have thiscommunity of people, just not
only the podcast, but on theshow.
And thanks to everyone whoshowed up for this birthday
(04:05):
party.
I'm not really going to call ita birthday party.
It really wasn't a birthdayparty, but some people were kind
enough to bring gifts a fewdays early for my birthday,
which is Friday.
But it's just like thiscommunity of people that have
gotten to know each other.
I probably mentioned it before,just through the show and
through the podcast.
So I wouldn't mention all ofyou and or all of them, but I
(04:29):
don't want to leave anyone offthe list.
And, by the way, if you want tojoin us, feel free get in touch
with us.
I'd love to hear from you tojoin our and we did karaoke
during our gathering.
We did did karaoke.
Everyone sang so well the othernight.
It was quite amazing, I have tosay, but just kind of talking
(04:51):
to everyone was really cool, youknow, getting to know everyone
out there.
So thank you to everyone.
I'll say at least Darlene witha Y, because she's the one that
corrals everyone up at theDarlene with the Y Ranch up in
the hills, and thank you to herthat this keeps going, keeps
(05:11):
growing Will.
Looks like I'm going to have avery special guest, another
rocker on my show, this time arocker on the Pat's Peeps
podcast on my birthday.
As I said, I don't usually workon my birthday, but it looks
like Mark Farner will be joiningus.
Grand Funk founder, Grand Funk,grand Funk Railroad, is going
(05:35):
to be joining me on the podcast,which I'm really, really
looking forward to.
That conversation We'll go indepth with him.
We'll have more than eightminutes.
Ah, hold on, I dropped myrecord.
I don't want to ever drop theserecords, my little 45s.
They're very rare, don't wantto abuse those.
So, yeah, I'm looking forwardto having Mark Farner.
(05:56):
If those of you are rockers andyou're into Grand Funk, grand
Funk Railroad, then you'll enjoythis conversation.
I think Yesterday was kind ofinteresting.
My brother called me, mybrother Steve.
God bless my brother, steve man, all your brothers and sisters
too.
If you have none, god bless you, your family, whatever, all of
(06:17):
you.
Steve calls me up, he's ah Pat,I drove down.
Do you know anyone who's in thecar dealer business?
I said no, I don't, and then Iwill not repeat what I said
after that.
But I'm not a big fan of goingto the car dealer.
(06:40):
I'm just letting you know Idon't like going.
I don't like the experience ofgoing and buying a car.
It's interesting to think aboutgetting that new car and the
new car smell.
It's great to have that new car.
Don't get me wrong.
It's the experience of dealingwith a dealership.
(07:01):
You know what I mean dealingwith and I mean no offense.
If you're a car salesperson, Iknow you're just doing your job,
but I just don't enjoy theexperience because there's so
many people involved.
You know the whole thing.
It's not you, never, it's wellknown.
(07:21):
It's not just me, but Stevecalls and he's like ah man.
I's not just me, but Stevecalls and he's like ah man.
I said I don't know anyone,steve, and I don't want to get
into any stories with him aboutany of this from my end, anyhow.
But I was there to listen to mybrother's experience, to which
he began to tell me he went toHayward.
They're looking for a car forhis son, william, and so they
(07:44):
drive to Hayward.
Now, my brother Steve, he isn'tall about driving to Hayward
for nothing, but in this case itmust have.
He must have really needed acar or saw one online, as he
said.
That looked really good and toogood to believe, or whatever
the case may be.
(08:04):
So he drives down there.
Ah yeah, to drive a round tripof 300 miles.
That doesn't make me happy.
He can be very grouchy.
I love you, steve, but in thatregard where he's got to drive
like that for something likethat, he can be a little grouchy
.
Now, if we were going to aconcert, that'd be one thing,
but this is to go deal with thecar sales experience and he's
(08:29):
like man.
I'm telling you, pat, this I Ican't listen in.
In order for me to even relaythis story, relate the story to
you.
I need to clean it up so much Ican't drop all the F-bombs that
were used.
Pat, I'm telling you now, man,beep, beep, beep, this little
(08:52):
weasel beep Trying to get me torun around, making me sit there
like I'm some chump.
This weasel ass bleep.
Poor Mary.
Mary's my sister-in-law.
She's got to listen to me.
I'm grumpy, turning into a bear.
(09:14):
Now we're going to drive 115miles, 20 miles back.
She's got to deal with me.
I feel so bad.
I was in such a crappy mood.
This is my brother.
I'm listening to him.
I'm telling you, pat, theseweasels, you know, here's.

You know, I'm sure you'll hearit.
But here's the car.
Like this is the badger, thecar salesman badger.
Speaker 3 (09:50):
Well, selling the car is just like fishing, wilbur

real slow.
You ask them questions abouttheir family, what they do, you
act like you're interested andonce you get their trust,
kabowie, you just sold a car.

I don't tired of being badgered.
Come to any Johnson Automotivedealer, oh God.
Speaker 1 (11:43):
Oh crud, that makes me laugh.
I was listening to the musicearlier.
My music changes.
My musical tastes changedepending on the weather and I
listen to a lot of music.
(12:04):
Okay, I love that badger.
When it's raining like this,like it's raining today, off and
on, anytime it rains and it'sbeen nice, does your mood change
?
Does your musical mood change?
(12:24):
If you're a musical person,mine changes drastically, like
today.
Here's what I was going, what Iwas.
So this would be like uh, thisis my rainy day, moody music.
I would have like jethro tullacoustic.
Speaker 2 (12:51):
There's a haze on the skyline To wish me on my way,
just like that.
Speaker 1 (13:00):
It's almost like I mean, it's just Now.
But if it's summertime, well,let's see.
What else would it be.
Oh, this might be like rainyday music for me.
I don't own the rights to thisrainy day music.
(13:25):
Pink Floyd Shine On my rainyday music Into the gloom.
Does your musical mood changedepending on the weather?
So if that would be like mywintertime, my summer music,
(13:52):
like now, all of a sudden, let'ssay, it's 100 degrees out, it'd
be something like this.
It would change to maybe I'mjust thinking of examples
Summertime music Pats Peeps, 260.
When you grab ahold of me, youtell me that I'll never be set
free.
You know, like sublime, but I'ma parasite.
(14:17):
Creep and crawl, I step intothe night.
Two pints of booze.
Yeah, tell me, are you aparasite?
Yeah, that'd be it.
You know, the other song,another one that would be on my
list, would be the one.
You know, maybe, that I chosemy rare record spin today.
(14:40):
Yeah, sublime, sublime, badger.
Let's see how about this guy.
Here's the Chick Magnet.
Let's see how about this guy.
Here's the chick magnet.

Oh, it's you.
Hey, you bought a car from uslast week.
We just want to know how yourexperience was Well it was
terrible.
Your people were rude.
When I came to pick up the car,I had to wait for hours and I
stood there in the rain.
And then the car finally came.
Well, it was dirty and itsmelled like a sock.
Speaker 4 (16:07):
We aim to please.
Tired of being badgered?
Then come to Johnson Hyundai ofCary.
Speaker 1 (16:16):
Oh man, I can't stop with these.
Speaker 3 (16:21):
Yeah, you're going to look good in that car, so we
ready to sign this deal.
Speaker 1 (16:26):
Well, we really love the car.

Speaker 3 (16:37):
Right all the paperwork I had to do.
I look at your credit report.
You got a lot of money, so thenlet's do the deal tired of
being badgered.
Speaker 4 (16:46):
Come to any johnson automotive dealership.
Speaker 1 (16:49):
There you go I gotta hand that to you, johnson.
Make it fun of yourselfSelf-deprecating.
I love that.
Whoever came up with that very,very good idea?
Wow, you know, when I waslooking at this record that I
pulled from my Rare 45collection today, I was sitting
(17:09):
here thinking, because you know,know, when I'm doing these
podcasts, I'm trying not to playthe same record twice, and I
knew that at some point, if Ireally didn't keep track which,
honestly, I'm not being honestwith you on that I should be,
but I'm not I for some reason, Ithink well, my mind will be
(17:32):
able to remember if I put it inor not, and it might be which
leads me to wonder if I'veplayed this one before or not,
or featured on my Pat's Peepspodcast, or whether or not it's
deja vu.
Anyone have deja vu?
You ever get that it could bedeja vu?
(17:57):
Anyone have deja vu?
You ever get that it could bedeja vu?
Hmm, I need to think about that.
Yeah, people, you know mybrother going back to the car
salesman thing he does not like.
See, now I'm having a deja vu.
Right now I can't escape it.
Once you think you're having it, you can't escape it, or I
can't, hmm.
(18:21):
So my brother did not buy thecar, said there was Gorilla Glue
under the fender holding ittogether, said pat, like I'm so
dumb I'm not gonna even noticethat there's gorilla glue
holding the fender together andthey won't knock any money, any
(18:42):
money off of the.
You know they won't discountthe car, he says.
I pointed out to the guys like,oh man, I would have never
looked under there and even seenthat.
He says really, and I guessapparently they had all these
safety checks or inspections oryou know, the car was inspected
numerous times that's accordingto my brother, which you would
(19:03):
imagine.
They would at least inspect thecar, I guess, before they sell
it.
What do I know?
Anyhow, he's like, yeah, it'sall held together with gorilla
glue.
And then, you know, gorillaglue breaks down over time and
he starts explaining all of thisstuff.
But a lot of people they don'tlike going into the dealing with
a car salesman.
You know why?
Because there is thisperception of dishonesty.
(19:24):
I'm not suggesting that carsalesmen are dishonest, I'm just
saying there is this perception.
You know, like high pressuretactics, they're not being
honest as you go through theprocess of, you know, the sales
process, they're not beingtransparent.
(19:45):
A lot of people think they'rebeing pressured to make a quick
decision May not be getting thebest deal.
You know how it is, especiallyif they really don't know what
they're doing in terms ofnegotiating with a car.
I don't, I mean, I feel veryself-assured, I don't feel like
I can.
I'm going to let anyone rip meoff.
But guess what?
(20:05):
I know for a fact when I'vebeen ripped off and I can, I
know, I look back on it now andI go, oh, they ripped me this,
this person did that, I.
I remember them and again, whenthat happens, I mean the
reputation takes a hit.
You know of that occupation.
(20:26):
I'm not trying to againOccupation.
I'm not trying to again, I'mnot trying to.
You know, put anyone down who'sworking in that occupation.
There are very honest carsalesmen too that work very hard
and very long hours.
To those who are honest anddon't rip people off, hey,
(20:51):
here's to you.
But there is that perceiveddishonesty.
Some are known for usingmanipulative tactics.
Making false promises, tryingto get the customer to buy it
can make things very unpleasant.
The process.
They might be aggressive.
They may try to employ thesestrategies that are more
(21:11):
aggressive, making you feel likeyou better buy it immediately.
You're going to miss out onthis.
This is the deal can make youas a customer feel uncomfortable
and awkward.
You know the whole thing lackof transparency, negotiation
challenges, um, some of thecustomer service lacks, to say
(21:33):
the least.
That's not the only business itwould, but you know, some
customers report being treatedpoorly by the car salesman lack
of respect, lack of attention topay to their, their needs.
Also, a lot of customers arenot really that comfortable
negotiating prices on their own.
Maybe feel like they're beingtaken advantage of by the
(21:55):
salesman.
They were trained to maximizethe profits.
Plus there's, you know, buyinga car.
That's a pretty significantthing, right, it's a big
financial decision.
So then you hesitate Did youmake a mistake or am I being
taken advantage of?
In your mind it starts ringingup like a cash register.
(22:17):
Then you take that pen in yourhand and you're on the verge and
they have you in that officeand they've got that lengthy
piece of paper and next thingyou know you're signing like 20
different things.
You just sign, sign, sign.
And they know no one's going togo and read all the fine print
on this.
Right, you're not going to gothrough it.
Maybe some people do.
But they'll just tell you right, they guide you through it.
(22:40):
Yeah, this one here.
This means that you'll be inblah, blah, blah and you know
for so many miles or whatever.
You know the coverage, blah,blah, just sign there.
Okay, signing Because you wantto get out of there, because
they wear you down.
I remember one time in 1999, Ikid you, not August of 99, might
have been the end of July 99, Iwas in the place for 12 hours
(23:04):
and that's where much of thedisdain for the process, you
know, really happened for me, 12hours, it was unnecessary.
Process, you know, reallyhappened for me, 12 hours, it
was unnecessary.
This vehicle was on theshowroom floor, this four-wheel
drive chevy four by.
So I bought it took 12 hoursand there's other things.
(23:24):
But anyhow, I'm not here to bagon car sales people.
I'm just telling you where thatgot me thinking yesterday.
I I might bring that up on myshow tonight.
Is there probably people thatwould share all kinds of stories
about that?
Again, I don't know if I'm stillhaving the deja vu or not, but
I kind of felt like I was havinga deja vu, you know where you
(23:47):
uh, it's like that phenomenonwhere you feel like you've
already done this, like I'mstill kind of feeling that right
now it doesn't happen.
Very often they say it is anillusion of memory.
I mean, you have a.
I looked up deja vu.
Here's what it says.
(24:07):
Despite a strong sense ofrecollection, the time, place
and context of the previousexperience are uncertain or
impossible.
Approximately two-thirds ofsurveyed populations report
experiencing deja vu at leastone time in their lives and the
phenomenon manifestsoccasionally as a symptom of
(24:29):
seizure auras.
Yeah, some researchers haveassociated chronic or frequent
pathological deja vu withneurological or psychiatric
illness.
Well, I don't have them veryoften, rarely Experiencing.
They say deja vu has beencorrelated with higher
(24:51):
socioeconomic status Probablynot the case with me either.
Better educational attainmentwho knows, excuse me and lower
ages.
That's obvious.
Obviously the case for me.
With the lower age thing.
(25:14):
People who travel often oh,people who travel often,
frequently watch films orfrequently remember their dreams
are also more likely to reportexperiencing deja vu than others
.
So I do travel.
I don't watch a lot of films,but I do remember dreams.
Anyone, do you remember yourdreams?
Hmm, that's another one thatmight be kind of interesting.
(25:40):
I'm thinking of all kinds ofstuff for my radio show tonight.
I can ask about deja vu.
Car salesman, yeah yeah, carsalesman, uh uh yeah, because
maybe people have uh opinionsand thoughts on that.
Uh, the first, by the way, theterm was deja vu for issues by
(26:03):
emile borak in 1876, who was afrench philosopher whose book
which I will not try topronounce the Future of Psychic
Sciences in English, thank youincluded the sensation of deja
(26:26):
vu as presented by Emil as areminiscence of memories.
Experiments have led scientiststo suspect that deja vu is a
memory phenomenon.
We encounter a situation thatis similar to an actual memory,
but we can't fully recall thatmemory.
This evidence that'sinteresting, found by by meal,
(26:51):
helps the uh again, boric, Ihope don't know if I'm saying
that we're correct, I mean nodisrespect, but anyhow helps the
public understand what deja vucan entail on the average brain.
It was also stated, uh, by thisgentleman that our brain
recognizes the similaritiesbetween our current experiences
and one in the past, left with afeeling of familiarity that we
(27:14):
cannot quite place.
Throughout the history, they saythere have been many theories
about what may cause deja vu.
Does this happen to you?
Does everyone have deja vu?
I don't want to get into likethis.
There's medical disorders,pharmacology, there's a split
(27:38):
perception explanation Mayhappen if a person experiences a
current sensory experiencetwice successfully.
The first input experience isbrief, degraded, distracted.
Immediately following that, thesecond perception might be
familiar because the personnaturally related to the first.
(27:59):
Anyhow, memory-based explanation, research associating deja vu
experiences with good memoryfunctions that's great because I
feel like I have a good memory,particularly long-term memory,
they say.
And I feel like I have a verygood long-term memory.
They say and I feel like I havea very good long-term memory,
implicit memory, recognitionmemory, which enables people to
(28:20):
realize the event or activitythey are experiencing has
happened before it and okay.
So right there.
That's key to where I'm atright now.
So again, just to recap that,at least for my clarity,
(28:42):
research has associated deja vuexperiences with good memory
functions.
Again, I feel like I have anexcellent memory, particularly
long-term, which I do have.
That Implicit memory,recognition memory enables
(29:04):
people to realize the event oractivity they are experiencing
has happened before.
When people experience deja vu,they may have their recognition
memory triggered by certainsituations which they have never
encountered, hmm, by which theyhave never encountered.
Hmm.
That's fascinating Because,again, it feels like I've played
this record before, but maybeI'm having a deja vu Because
(29:25):
there's part of it that I'mgoing to say.
That's where it hit me.
Like did I say that before, ordid I just know that, or did I
say that on my Pat's peeps?
Yeah, there's a lot to go intothis.
I don't want to get into allthe depths of it, but yeah, so
(29:54):
there's.
I just you know the similaritybetween the deja vu eliciting
stimulus and an existing ornon-existing but different
memory trace, they say, may leadto the sensation that an event
or experience currently beingexperienced has already been
experienced in the past.
Thus, encountering somethingthat evokes the implicit
(30:17):
associations of an experiencedoes this make any sense?
Because there's going to be apop quiz that evokes the
implicit associations of anexperience or sensation that
cannot be remembered may lead todeja vu.
In an effort to reproduce thesensation experimentally,
(30:41):
bannister and Zagwill which, bythe way, one of my favorite
morning shows, I'm Bannister andI'm Zagwill, remember them,
late 80s Used hypnosis to giveparticipants post-hypnotic
amnesia for material they'dalready seen.
When this was laterre-encountered, the restricted
(31:01):
activation caused thereafter bythe post-hypnotic amnesia
resulted in three of the tenparticipants reporting what the
authors termed paramnesis,paramnesius, paramnesius,
paramnesius.
There you go, anyhow enough.
It's deja vu, for God's sakes,patrick.
(31:22):
With that in mind I still don'tknow if it was a deja vu or not
this record that I pulled,which is on a light yellow
record label, which is on let'ssee here, what is that?
(31:48):
Brother Records Boy.
It's so tiny Brother Records,pale yellow.
So tiny brother records, yellow, a pale yellow.
Nothing written on this sleeve,very different sleeve, okay.
So, oh, this song reminds me ofsummertime as, because it's
(32:13):
mislabeled, the song ismislabeled on the record and
original pressings.
So this is an original pressing, so the title is mislabeled on
the original pressings and Ihave that original pressing
where it is mislabeled.
That's what I'm looking at.
(32:34):
Song by an American rock bandfrom the 1973 album Holland,
primarily written by Van DykeParks You'll know exactly who
I'm talking about and BrianWilson with Ray Kennedy, tandon
Ulmer, jack Riley.
The lead singer of the song isBlondie Chaplin, making this one
(32:57):
of the band's few well-knownsongs not sung by Mike Love.
Of course I'm talking about theBeach Boys, not sung by Mike
Love, brian Wilson or CarlWilson.
This song was released as asingle in 1973.
This song was released as asingle in 1973, backed with Only
(33:24):
you that's the B-side peaked atnumber 79 on the Billboard
Singles Chart.
1975 reissue of the song, alsobacked by Only With you, charted
higher at number 49.
So this is the original version.
So that would have went tonumber 79.
Brian wilson himself um, okay,either I played this or I truly.
(33:49):
Again, I'm going back to thedeja vu.
I I may have played this.
Brian Wilson himself laterstated it's the only song that
we did.
He says that I absolutely donot like at all.
I never liked this song.
However, he personally selectedthe song as one of the 19 track
(34:09):
selections for the compilationclassics selected by Brian
Wilson, saying I love how thissong rocks.
So it just depends on whoyou're listening to.
I guess the song is perhaps theonly perennial Beach Boys
favorite to still live on onclassic albums, album, classic
(34:30):
rock albums, rock stations I'mtrying to say Classic rock
stations.
Album rock stations, I'm tryingto say Classic rock stations,
album rock stations, fm radioformats of the present day.
So even though originally hewas like yeah, you know I don't
like this song we did, it'sstill out there on the rock
(34:51):
stations.
I like it.
It's the Beach Boys.
Sail On Sailor, sail On commaSailor.
I sail in ocean.
Mine has no comma.
Speaker 5 (35:09):
I'm sailing ocean through restful waters and deep
commotion.
I rest the waters by Neptune'swaters, sail through the sorrows
(35:40):
Of life's marauders,unrepenting Of the empty.
Sail on sail on, sail on.
Caught like a sewer rat alonewould I sail, bought like a
(36:05):
crust of bread.
But oh, do I wail.
Seldom stumble, never crumble.
Try to tumble, my eyes rumble,feel the stinging I've been
given, never ending, unrelentingHeartbreak.
(36:27):
Searing, always fearing, neverclearing, persevering Sail on
sail, on, sail on.
Speaker 1 (36:38):
I gotta say this is actually one of my favorite
Beach Boys songs ever.
Speaker 5 (36:44):
The gale swept seaways.
Speaker 1 (36:47):
I can see why that one has remained on the FM rock
stations.
Don't own the song, not tryingto claim I do, I'm just trying
to play it.
You know I always have to saythat Flipping it over, here's
the B side, just letting peopleknow what's on the B, what would
be on the B side of Sail onSailor.
But again, it's Sail on Sailor.
(37:08):
That's the original pressingSail on Sailor.
There's no comma saying sail onsailor.
There's no comma.
But if you, when they redid it,they did it correctly Sail on
comma sailor.
So I have the sail on withoutthe comma, all right.
So the other side is, like Isaid, this is called Only With
(37:32):
you.
I'm not sure if I know this one, 1973.
Let's see, here we go BeachBoys Only With.
Speaker 2 (37:47):
You Love so many things that I feel I've only
felt with you, only with you.
And then there are the thingsthat we do, that I've only done
(38:18):
with you, only with you.
Before, love had always hadtheir ups and downs, until the
love I finally found, I know onething for sure, there you go,
(38:59):
Beach Boys only with you.
Speaker 1 (39:00):
Flip side of Sail On Sailor.
Thank you.
Thank you so much for listening.
