to CMA Fest so I've been to CMAFest quite a few times.

of things.

line moving.

doors.

time, or did you get a chance towalk around and enjoy some?

Jay Franze (06:52):
Very nice.
Well, let me ask you before weget too far off the path here
Okay, what was your favoritepart about the entire festival?
Think carefully.

My favorite part about the entire festival
Jada, signing your shirt.
I mean it literally made mywhole entire week All right.

Jay Franze (07:14):
So is it fair to say you're my new best friend.

I am your new best friend and I hope you don't
get rid of me anytime soon.

Jay Franze (07:23):
I don't know if that's going to be possible, get
rid of me anytime soon.

I don't know if that's gonna be possible.
I already knew that jay waslike super nice guy, right.
So we're standing there in linetrying to decide if we're gonna
go meet that lady that was upthere I can't remember who it
was right now sydney mack, yes,yes, yes, sydney mack, that's
right.
And so she was up there and itwas so funny when he turned to
you and was like yeah, I'm justgonna have her sign my shirt,
and I was like what?
And then all of a sudden, likeit was happening, and I was like

(07:52):
what?

is happening right now yeah, in my mind I was
thinking no, I'm not the artist.
She's up there.
You know like you want me to gotake a picture and he was like
no, I won't, I want to take apicture with you?
and I was like, okay, cool, andthen he turned around and was
like sign my shirt.
And I was like me, like I don'thave anything to sign with, and
I was glad my kids were therebecause they had just, they had
literally just made it to townlike 30 minutes before that, so

(08:15):
they actually had just walkedthrough and grabbed them
something to eat and I was like,man, I wish my kids could see
this.
And here they come around thecorner.
I was like, look what I justdid like I'm kind of a big deal
and they were like can't tellmama anything right now, so yeah
, now, where is your cute littleaccent from?
Mississippi.

Mississippi.
Yeah, it's very sweet, thankyou.

I get that a lot and I'm like, are y'all
making fun of me because?

no, oh my gosh, one of my favorite podcasts
she's not from.
She talks like that too, andshe talks like when she's
telling stories about her mamaand her babies, and I eat it up.

I'd probably dress up a little bit better
that day.
Funny story the day before Ihad wore boots the whole day and
I said not tomorrow, nottomorrow, not doing it Because
Shannon Doe's line was reallylong.
I mean we had probably 300folks come through that line and

(09:18):
yeah.
So it was a long day, but itwas, it was a great day.

Is that the day that you made the TikTok with
your daughter and your husband?

That was actually at the Dixie National
Rodeo back in February in.
Jackson yeah.
My daughter and I did make aTikTok, but I was thinking that
might have been what you weretalking about.
We made one there at the hotel.
She's trying to get me on theTikTok side of things.

Well, they were very cute.
I have to know how tall is yourhusband.

Six foot three .

Jay Franze (09:50):
Yes, he is Seven two .

Very tall.
That's funny.
For a little five, five, six,three is really tall.

Well, spotlight goes first to Lainey Wilson.
She is a superstar and thereigning ACM Entertainer of the
Year, and she is the subject ofthe new exhibit opening at the
Country Music Hall of Fame andMuseum in Nashville this summer,
right next to Music City Center.

(10:24):
Where we were correct, it isright next to music city center.

Jay Franze (10:25):
Where we were correct, it is right next door,
the building that has windowsthat look like a piano oh yes, I
remember you pointing that outthere you go, see that it's all
coming together now I actuallyvisited there this past week did
you oh?

yeah, super nice, the um dolly parton
exhibit had just opened up.
It had been open for two weeks.
Super interesting.

What else was in there?
That was good.

Of course my son was there for Taylor Swift.
All things Taylor Swift.

Jay Franze (10:55):
We're all Swifties here, don't worry.

I love Taylor Swift, girl boss, you know.

Jay Franze (11:00):
That's boss with a W-S-E.

Yeah, I had to run that through the brain a
couple times with a P-O-S-S andI was like I don't know.
I mean, taylor kind of doeshave girl balls.

So whatever, yeah, she does, but whatever
works, huh.
Slight difference.
They did have the big LukeHolmes exhibit open up.
It felt like a mile long, butto see all the cool things and
just to see where Luke hasstarted out and where he is now,
it was pretty cool.

Yeah, the evolution.

Jay Franze (11:32):
Did you see my exhibit?

I did Nice and mine's going to be right there
next to it.

Someone who has a very large pay grade or has a
lot of money to spend.
Whoa, whoa, whoa.

Jay Franze (11:44):
What are we talking about?

Mr Jason Aldean.

Jay Franze (11:48):
Okay, please continue.
Scared me for a minute.

No, no, he just finished his tour and, as
gratitude for Corey Kent whoopened for him, he thought he'd
give him a nice fat gift, whichwas a big old, shiny Rolex.
So, reviewing this, I did ask,jay, when I'm getting my Rolex.

Jay Franze (12:11):
Yes, it's here.
I told you.
It's here waiting for you.
Oh, that's right, you did saythat it's here waiting for you,
but unfortunately you did notcome by to pick it up, so
therefore, it might have to goto somebody else.

Whoa whoa, scarlett hands off.

Hey, hands off .

Hands off my Rolex, may the best girl win.
Nice, using those girl mouths.

Jay Franze (12:33):
I like this Kenny's in the house.

Ooh, yes, kenny, I was throwing shade.
Yes, yeah, I'm always throwingshade at Jay.
It must be cold where you are,jay.

Jay Franze (12:44):
It is.
That's why I'm wearing a hoodie.

Okay, well, next on the list is Lauren Alaina.
She became a mommy, so June11th she gave birth to her
daughter, benny Dahl Arnold, anddebuted her song Heaven Sent in
celebration.
Do you guys remember the crewlistening?
And set in celebration.
Do you guys remember the crewlistening when we talked about
Lauren Alina?
When she found out she waspregnant, she did the music
video and at the end was apicture of the sonogram.

(13:10):
So it's come full circle andthe baby is here and our little
Benny doll Arnold.

So sweet.

I want to hear you say it, Scarlett.
I bet it's so cute.
Say the baby's name Benny dollArnold.

Benny, so cute .
Say the baby's name Benny DollArnold.
Benny Doll Arnold, that's atongue twister man.
I've got to practice that twoor three times.

I didn't realize it was going to be a tongue
twister for you.
Sorry, I put you on the spot.

Jay Franze (13:37):
That typically happens to me.
I'm glad I'm sharing thattonight.
This was on June 11th that's mybrother's birthday.

Oh, my gosh Craig .

Jay Franze (13:47):
Yes, Craig.

Yeah, because I said, chris, when we were
talking in person, but Craig, Iknew it was 50-50 shot, remember
.

Jay Franze (13:55):
Craig and Chad, the two brothers, oh, chad, yeah.

Craig and Chris.
Craig and Chad, they knew whatI meant.

Yeah, sure she was ready to have that baby.

She was ready to have that baby.
She was ready, she wasmiserable.

Jay Franze (14:09):
I think it's going to slow her down for a little
bit.

She had an amazing support system for
American Idol.
I have to assume that samesupport system is there for the
baby While Mama's traveling.
I'm sure Benny Dal Arnold willgo with her.
I can't do Arnold in a countryaccent.
Arnold, there we go.

I think her getting pregnant was a really
good thing for her, you know,because she went through with
losing her dad and her and herdad were really close and as
someone who just lost my dad inthe past year, I know that's a
struggle.
And so then she, you know, justa few short months later she
finds out she's pregnant.
So I think it's really helpedher get through some some tough

(14:51):
times and she seems reallyexcited, so I'm happy for her.

You talk like you know her.

I met her dad back when Lauren Alaina dated
John Crist.
That's a long story, but I hadsome VIPs for John and we were
backstage and here come Lauren'sdaddy walking through and I was
like, oh my God, that's Lauren.
I looked at my friend.
I was like, oh my gosh, it'sLauren Alaina's daddy.
And she's like how do you knowwho Lauren Alaina's daddy is?

(15:22):
And I was like I'm going up tohim and I'm going to ask him.
And I was like I'm going up tohim and I'm going to ask him.
And I walked up to him and Isaid hey, I said I got questions
.
You know, you probably don'tthink I'm crazy, but are you
Lauren Elena's daddy?
And he was like I am.
And I was like do you care ifwe get a picture Like I love
your daughter?
Like he was just down to earthand come to find out he only

(15:43):
lived 30 minutes down the roadfrom me.

So now you guys are like having beers on Fridays
.

No, we didn't go that far, but it's really sad
, you know.

Yeah.

He was a good guy and I always wonder why God
takes the good ones so young.

Jay Franze (15:57):
So yep Do you know how old he was.

I want to say he was in his fift maybe 54.

Jay Franze (16:07):
Let's move on.
I can't hear that next okay.

Well, next, you know, there's all this
controversy with beyonce beingin the country scene and that
cowboy carter, one album of theyear, or whatever it was.

Jay Franze (16:25):
I thought we said we're not including her.

I know we're not, but the news story is Okay.
The Recording Academy willpresent two separate awards at
the 2026 Grammys BestTraditional Country Album and
Best Contemporary.
I said that weird ContemporaryCountry Album.

(16:51):
Traditional country album andbest contemporary.

Jay Franze (16:52):
I said that weird contemporary country album.
It's not that much class inthere.
This is what happens whenyou're riding the the golf cart
to the yacht.
Now you're pronouncing words,all funny it's the contemporary
country album that's funny.

Critics are arguing that it is in response
to Beyonce's Cowboy Carter win.
I kind of think that this isprobably a wise move, though,
because we're seeing all thecollaborations across genres,
and so I feel like that's kindof fair.
What do you think, jay?

Jay Franze (17:23):
I would agree with it.
I mean, I think, when you'redealing with, like you said, all
the collabs that are comingfrom the pop world, I think,
it's good to have a contemporarysection, but even you get your
Carrie Underwoods of the worldand stuff too that's pretty
contemporary.

Yeah, yeah, I would agree with that that's
true, yeah.

Jay Franze (17:41):
So who are we considering to be classic?

Whoa, I'm in the middle of a thought, jay.

Jay Franze (17:46):
Oh, anyways, and I saw the smoke too.

Yeah, so I think that now I lost my train of
thought, see.

Jay Franze (17:57):
Jay Tiffany Fired.

You're fired.
No.

Who do you consider to be a traditional
artist?
Is that?

Jay Franze (18:08):
what you were asking .
Yes, that's what I was asking.

That's a good question, gosh.

Sam Hunt.
He does that kind of rap thing,did you just say?

Jay Franze (18:21):
rap thing and you're going to say traditional
country.

Oh, I thought you said contemporary, sorry.

Jay Franze (18:27):
Oh gosh, Right now in traditional Tiffany, you're
fired Twice within a minute.

Strike two, tiffany.
Strike two, you're out.

Jay Franze (18:41):
I mean when we say traditional country.
At this point I can think ofthe old school ones.

Yes, me too.
There is an up-and-comingartist, mae Estes.
I feel like she's got a littletraditional sound.
I'm not so sure that she'sgoing to continue that
traditional sound throughout hermusic, but it would be nice to
get somebody I like Lainey, Ithink Lainey Wilson, I like
Lainey.

I like Lainey.
I think she has a prettytraditional twangy country sound
to her and.
I think also Ella Langley andMegan Maroney.
I know that Megan is younger,but I still think that she has
that more traditional sound.

Jay Franze (19:21):
Billy.
Joe Jones Got to shine a littlelight on Billy.
I think Trey Calloway too thatshe has that more traditional
sound.

Billy Joe Jones Got to shine a little light on
Billy.
I think Trey Calloway too.
I mean, I thought his musicsounded pretty traditional.

Yeah, I like Trey's voice.

Yeah.

Josh Weathers.
I feel like Josh Weathers iskind of traditional.
I really like him.

Jay Franze (19:39):
Who's the guy out now?
That sounds like 90s country.

Oh, zach Toddp , yeah, oh God, don't get me
started on Zach.
I love me some Zach Topp and Ireally feel like country music
is in a good place right nowbecause I feel like we're
bringing back some of thetraditional music, and I feel
like Zach is bringing it backand Jake's following him, and
Cole Goodwin too, so I feel likeit's in good hands right now.

Okay, can I interrupt breaking news?
The thought just came back,okay.

Jay Franze (20:08):
I saw you writing something down you want to get
fired.

Don't talk, okay.
So I think the reason why thisis a good split is because we
have our country people who aretraditional and that's kind of
like the uh, try this in a smalltown or try that in a small
town, right.
Like they're very true to theircountry roots, ok.
And then we have the otherpeople that are like oh, I like
country, but I like it mixedwith whatever.

(20:32):
That solid core originalcountry group doesn't want the
Beyonce's, but like we're openminded, right, the three of us
will take everybody.
Well, we're not very openminded, you and I, jay I know we
kind of kicked Beyonce out, butthat was my thought process is
that like there's a section thatwill value having that
traditional still, and thenthere's another group that

(20:55):
doesn't give two craps if it'ssplit or not or whatever, but
anyways, wasn't that like worththe wait?
I?

Jay Franze (21:02):
think that gets you caught up to the rest of the
conversation.
Yeah, yes, I agree.
I mean I think there needs tobe that tradition of the George
Straits and the Garth Brooks andyou know or Tracy.
Lawrence, you know.

Oh gosh, yes, love me some Tracy.

And Shenandoah.

Of course, all-time favorite.
Yes, I mean Two Dozen Roses,that's a banger.
I mean, that is such a classicand it will never go out of
style.

Agreed, it'll never go out of style.

Look at you throwing a little Taylor Swift
in there.

Yeah, that was for your son, okay look, she
already knows a little bit aboutme, that's great yeah she's a

Jay Franze (21:53):
stalker lover she stands on the curb and looks up
at your window girl, I'm all theway down in Florida.
Come on over.

Okay.
Well, luke Combs is now theonly artist with four
Diamond-certified country songs.
The hitmaker added she got thebest of me to his list.

Jay Franze (22:13):
At Bonnaroo last week, their certification comes
from RIAA, the group responsiblefor certifying songs as gold,
platinum, multi-platinum, etc.

Didn't bonnaroo get canceled?
It did.
Well, I think the red claystrays were supposed to play or
something, and it got canceledyeah, did they cancel the whole
thing or did it go off for a dayor two?
You did go for a day or so andthen it got canceled.
The last couple days?

Jay Franze (22:42):
I'm not sure, but that would make sense.
In RIAA you saw a lot of gold,platinum, multi-platinum and
diamond albums when you were inNashville?

Yes, I did.

Jay Franze (22:55):
You got to walk through a museum.

I know, and y'all rushed me, I didn't rush you,
y'all just wanted to go havedinner.

Jay Franze (23:01):
Well, food is important.

We had starving teenage girls with us.
That's true.

Yes, I did too .

Jay Franze (23:08):
Scarlett, did you meet the daughters?

I didn't get to meet your daughters.
I saw them with y'all, I justdidn't get to meet them.
Would have loved to have metthem.

They were holding puppies almost the entire time.

They were more concerned with the puppies and
then I had to work next to thelittle puppies and I was like I
just got to go sneak one littlepeek and my friend was like, oh,
they got dogs here.
And I was like, yeah, I mightend up taking one home.
But it didn't happen.
But they were some cute littleanimals.

Yeah, they were, they were.
My daughter was spitting, I wassmitten.

Jay Franze (23:43):
She was not spitting .
I've got too many buttons.
Should we try a different one?
No, not yet.
Okay, we'll hold off for alittle while.

Be nice to me.

Jay Franze (23:50):
Greg said this isn't the best episode ever and Kenny
said he's got to agree withthat.

Oh, wow, Wow that's really sweet.
Some garlic fans.

Get my own new fan club going here.

Jay Franze (24:05):
Leave the queen bee alone.

Yes, kenny's got my back.

Jay Franze (24:10):
No, he doesn't.
He's talking about Beyonce.

Oh, I think maybe .

Jay Franze (24:16):
No.

Beyonce here.
Kenny, sorry, I'm the queen bee.
Kenny, if you're going to bringup queen bee, it's me.

Jay Franze (24:20):
You're the queen bee of the show, for sure.

Until Scarlet knocks you off.
Okay, well, Willie Nelson isactually still touring you guys.

Jay Franze (24:33):

He's close, 92.
You're off by 70.
Okay, but he recently resumedthe outlaw music you did math

Tony Scott (24:49):

the Farm Aid concert was goingto be Coming to town.

Jay Franze (25:29):
Dave Ray, miss Scarlet from the band Vaughn Ray
.
He was on the show a coupletimes, great guy, but he was on
the road touring with Creed andNickelback and he called his
father and said he just had theopportunity to smoke pot with
Willie Nelson.
He said that's his claim tofame and his dad says, well,
that's kind of like telling mehe had sex with a hooker.

Jay Franze (26:15):
Yes, we got to see Nickelback last year when they
came through town.

Cool, it'll be my first time, so I'm excited.

Jay Franze (26:23):
Very nice.
I would tell you the name ofthe guest that gave me the
tickets to go see him, but Idon't remember his name.
What's wrong?
He's the live sound engineerfor Nickelback.
I forgot his name.

Oh, that's neat.

It'd be neater if he knew the name.

Jay Franze (26:55):
Yeah, if he could remember his name reverse name,
I mean I can look it up, but atthis point I've already screwed
it up.
Next, christian.
Thank you, this is too good.
Well glad somebody thinks so.
Question of the day if you hada soundtrack to your life, what
would the opening song be?
If you had a soundtrack to yourlife, what would the opening
song be?
All right, I've given this somethoughts.
We know that my favorite bandis Journey and I think my

(27:17):
personality would be of thatdrive and passion, of don't stop
believing I like it I have asecondary one too no, you only
asked for one song did I.
All right, I'll tell you whatI'll hear yours.
If yours is any good, I'll goback and come back with my

(27:37):
second choice well, I choseladylike by ingrid and race.

I don't know how to say her last name, but yes,
yes, yes, yes, that's andress.
That's right, I like that, I'dbe mine oops, oops, I got an
apology.

Jay Franze (27:57):
Christian, not Christian.

Oh Sorry, look at her.

Jay Franze (28:04):
Sorry, my bad, I'm sorry, it happens.
Lenard Skinnard, lenardSkinnard, it's pronounced Lenard
Skinnard.
Oh, scarlett, they make fun ofme every night.
I'm sorry.

He fires me every night.
He asks for it, he asks for itall.

Jay Franze (28:28):
Where are we at?
Tiffany, did you give yours?

Yeah, ladylike, did I pay attention to you?
No, for the usual.

Jay Franze (28:35):
What did you say?

It's called Ladylike.

Jay Franze (28:39):
For you.

For me.
See, now, you would appreciateit.
I told you I'd play it for youbefore the show.
You said no.
You told me you didn't want totell me before the show I know,
and then I wanted to and thenyou didn't want me to, so I
didn't.
It's basically talking abouthow people say that she's a
ladylike, but she says she's aladylike that'll bring you to

(29:02):
your knees.
She's a lady like smoking withher pack of cigarettes on the
dash.
Like not a ladylike prim andproper.

Jay Franze (29:11):
but like that makes more sense.

Right.

Jay Franze (29:15):
But now that you're, you know, taking the golf cart
to the yacht, things mightchange oh.
Sorry, I missed it.
That's the one I picked, fairenough, I'll have to give it a
listen.
Ms Scarlett, do you have a songthat you think would be the
soundtrack to your life?

Gosh, there'd probably be a lot that would be
the soundtrack to my life.

Jay Franze (29:36):
Give us how you're going to open this up.

I don't know, maybe Wide Open Spaces by the
Dixie Chicks or Ramblin' by RedClay Strays, because I feel like
that's me.

Yeah, I like that song Wide Open Spaces.

Jay Franze (29:52):
Dixie Chicks are crazy.

Yeah, that was back when they had their own
mind, right.

Jay Franze (29:59):
I had a chance to work with them a couple times,
and one of the times was whenthey were a little out in left
field, for sure, and we weregoing to the the award show and
they were just just yapping andyapping, yapping.

working in Nashville and TaylorSwift first came out, nobody
wanted to accept her.
I mean, she was extremely niceand nobody wanted to accept her.

They're all threatened.
That's what my mom always said.
If they're not nice to you,it's because they're jealous or
they're threatened.

Threatened by you, I agree.

My ears are bleeding it'sstarting to do.
I love that song.

I used to sing it a lot whenthe kids were little and we're
just constantly running fromthing to thing to thing and I
was like why do I do this tomyself?

Jay Franze (38:27):
Did you hear Kim's?

No, I was talking .

Jay Franze (38:31):
I know I'm sorry, I won't do it again.
Kim says I'm in a hurry.

That was the one.
Yes, I heard it, cause I justreplied.

Jay Franze (38:39):
Yes, I heard it because.
I just replied to it and Idon't know why I'm in a hurry.

Not Alabama, yeah .

Rushing, rushing till life's no fun.

Jay Franze (38:48):
It says Alabama right there and I didn't even
see it.
That was a good song.

That was a good group.

Jay Franze (38:54):
Yeah.

Yeah.

Jay Franze (38:56):
Michael says one of those things, Limp Bizkit, Is
that the song where he talksabout breaking stuff?
Michael chime in and tell us,is that the song where he talks
about breaking stuff?
Carol says A Whiter Shade ofPale.
I played that in like the firstband I was in.

Is it difficult to play?

Jay Franze (39:17):
It was for me.
I am not that good.
I mean that was a good band.
That band was probably above mypay grade.
Mark says I have the tiger.
No, not long-haired Mark.
But Mark with a C says I havethe tiger.

I interviewed a person about that song and he
explains when he first heard thesong he was like in
kindergarten and he had like, uh, you know it was in the the 70s
or whatever late 70s probablyand he had like the mushroom
haircut because he was little,he was like six, he was in
kindergarten five for eye of thetiger.

Jay Franze (39:59):
Yes, not the 70s.
No why?

when did it come out?
80s okay, well, 80s, he was inthe 80s, like I said, anyway.
So he had these big glasses on,nope, nope, he had these big
glasses on really thick lens, so, you know, probably a little
dorky looking, you know.
And he said he was sittingthere and they were waiting for
a pep rally and he heard eye ofthe tiger come on and somehow he

(40:23):
just knew everything was goingto be okay.
He stood up, he whipped off hisglasses and he just started
dancing eye of the tiger.
It's such a great visual thatjust this little kid just
jamming out eye of the tiger,that's a great song it is a
great song it came out the sametime as jack and diane and

Jay Franze (40:43):
my family went on vacation to beach in new
hampshire and we were walking upand down the strip and that's
all you heard is those two songs, over and over and over.
But that song was written forthe movie rocky.
It was written for rockybecause they already had a song
in mind and they were unable touse it.
I don't remember which song itwas, but they were unable to use
it.
I don't remember which song itwas, but they were unable to use

(41:04):
it.
So they needed a song lastminute and they asked this band
to write it, and they didn'twant to write it.

Good thing they did.

Jay Franze (41:10):
They threw it together last minute, threw it
together last minute, just wentin and recorded it real quick
and it turned out to be a megahit Band.
Survivor.
Wow, all right.

Should we?

Jay Franze (41:20):
start wrapping it up here.

Start censoring.

Jay Franze (41:24):
I'm going to censor and I see my ending point, I see
it clear right there.
And it's Michael.
He's here every week, so we'llgo with it.
All right First of all.
Gerald says time in a bottle,jim Croce.

Time in a bottle.

Jay Franze (41:51):
I don't know.
I think we could put an end tothat.
Let's see.
John says something like SticksGrand Illusion.
I like Sticks Dave Ray.
We'll use his last name.

Hey.

Jay Franze (42:07):
Because he was a previous guest on the show that
smoked pot with Willie NelsonSimilar to having sex with a
hooker.
He says it would have to bejust like this show.
The theme to Benny Hill.
What have you ever seen, BennyHill?
What have you ever seen, BennyHill?

No.

Jay Franze (42:26):
No.

No, me neither .

Jay Franze (42:30):
No, seriously I haven't.
Okay, remind me at the end andI'll find some video or
something to play.
Benny Hill was hilarious.
It was an old British comedythat used to get away with
things that you probablyshouldn't get away with on TV.
All right, here's the ending,ending with Michael.

(42:52):
He says Escape by Journey.

Oh, I see why you had that be the ending, but I'm
going to pull rank and I'mgoing to put one more song on
the list and it would be for meand it would be.
A star is born.

Jay Franze (43:09):
You know what that makes sense?
It really does.

I thought so too, and I was trying to look for a
Christmas song, and I think thatthat can be a Christmas song
Sometimes, I don't know, becausemy birthday is December 24th.
So I was thinking oh littlechild of Bethlehem.
But it's oh little town ofBethlehem, town of Bethlehem,
yeah, yeah.

Jay Franze (43:31):
We'll let Jesus fire you on that one.

I have to add two more.

Plus.

Jay Franze (43:39):
Scarlett, you said you were supposed to be thinking
.
Did you think of?

one.

Jay Franze (43:41):
Oh, I know, but there's so many, we'll do two
more and then yours Prepareyourself.
Christopher says Whiskey andWhitley Josh Ward.

Oh yeah, that's an awesome song.

Jay Franze (43:58):
All right, Christopher, you got Scarlett's
attention.
And then Greg says great songchoice, Christopher, that's
awesome.
You've got a few people youknow liking that one as well,
miss Scarlett.

Put a bow on it, girl.
I'm not sure I mean I like that.
I think that Kelly Clarksonsong what Doesn't Kill you Makes
you Stronger.

Jay Franze (44:20):
There you go.

Really would speak for my life.

Perfect, all right.
Well, led Zeppelin is who we'regoing to talk about.
They have revealed plans torelease a new album before the
end of 2025, marking their firstsince 1982's CODA.
The album is tentatively goingto be titled Echoes of Time and
is set to feature iconic trio ofJimmy Page, robert Plant, john

(44:45):
Paul Jones, with Jason Bonham,the son of the late John Bonham,
stepping in on drums.

Fun fact here.
So like I was supposed to benamed Jimmy Page, but I come out
a girl and not a boy.
Oh dang yeah, my dad wasobsessed with him Scarlet Page.

Jay Franze (45:04):
It makes more sense now Wow.

You should have picked a Led Zeppelin song.

Yeah, I should have.

Jay Franze (45:13):
Zeppelin.
You know that was one of thefirst bands, one of the first
records I ever got.
Do you remember the two peoplethat were making fun of me with
Journey and Olivia Newton-John?
Yeah, one of them was PaulPaul's house burnt down or part
of his house burnt down, and hegave me his Led Zeppelin
collection when I was a youngin'.

Oh my gosh Wow.

Jay Franze (45:31):
So that's how I got into Led Zeppelin.

At least his Led Zeppelin collection didn't burn.
Yeah Well, it was a littlewarped but it worked, not too
soon.

Jay Franze (45:40):
This was back in 1982, probably.
Oh Anyway, chris Franz was onthe show.
Chris Franz out with JasonBonham right now.
When they came through townhere what was it?
Last year, maybe I had a chanceto go see them perform and we
were backstage eating and JasonBonham came in the room and sat

(46:00):
down next to me and was tellingme about his grandkid that was
just born.
It was pretty cool.
His grandkid was born roughlythe same time as Valen, my
youngest daughter.
There you go.

Wow.

Jay Franze (46:13):
Tying it all together.
I remember that night becauseit was the night after
Thanksgiving and they still hada whole slew of pies left and
that's all I ate that night waspies.
I had the best food.

Okay, really quick roundtable Favorite pie Go
Jay.

Jay Franze (46:29):
Apple.

Scarlet.
Favorite pie Go Jay AppleScarlet.

Jay Franze (46:34):
Keylam oh, I'm a pumpkin.

She's got a little bit of spice to her Gotta
keep it a little spicy.

I don't know.
I'd say a little tart.
Yeah, just call her a littletart.
She's a little tart.
That's not nice.
Scarlet's a little tangy.
She's a guest here.
She's a little tart that's notnice A little tangy.
She's a guest here.

Jay Franze (46:52):
She's a tangy tart.
Yeah, we're taking, a leftwe're taking a left I could eat
the whole.

Thing.

I could eat a whole pumpkin pie.
I feel that, although, do youknow, I always scoop the filling
off the crust, I don't eat thecrust.

What the crust is the best part.

On a key lime for sure, but on a pumpkin eh, the
crust for everything for me.
It's a mere holder of the goodstuff.
It's just so good.

Jay Franze (47:15):
Coconut cream is good too.

I like a coconut cream, I won't spit it out.
I won't spit out a key lime pie, so we could all have pie,
although y'all aren't saying youlike pumpkin, so I can have
your pie.
Okay, nope, nope, pumpkin, so Ican have your pie.
Okay, nope, nope.
I'm not finishing that sentence.
Anyways, earthly ario speedwagon vocalist terry luttrell
was involved in a scaryautomobile accident after

(47:38):
participating in a weekendreunion show at the venue
operated by the university ofillinois in champaign, illinois,
where the band got their start.
That is very scary.

Jay Franze (47:50):
Terry is like early days of REO Speed Volume, but
sad nonetheless.

I feel like they were just in one of our news
headlines, but I can't rememberwhy.

Jay Franze (48:00):
Yeah, they were.
Did you catch his age by anychance?

No.

Jay Franze (48:07):
Google, google, google.
Yep, I was just going to say,just Google that.

I can look that up, Jay.

Jay Franze (48:13):
Alexa, how old is Terry Littrell from REO
Speedwagon?

78.
Terry.

Littrell is 78 years old and was born on
January 1st 1947.

Jay Franze (48:27):
Thank you, sweetheart.
She doesn't respond to that.
At least my phone responds tothat.

I said something to her the other day in my car
and she responded and I was likeI was not expecting her to
reply.

Jay Franze (48:42):
I wonder if Bob worked with him.
Bob worked on the REOSpeedwagon records back in the
day and I don't know if heworked with him or the other
singer if it wasn't so late wecould text him and ask him, but
it's kind of late be fair, he'dprobably answer oh, is he an
idol I don't know.
He texts me all hours of thenight.

Oh okay.
Well, nancy wilson, from heart,says the Trump administration
was not given permission to playone of their songs at the US
Army's 250th anniversary paradeon Saturday.

Jay Franze (49:17):
Ooh Barracuda.

In all fairness.
I mean, they defended ourcountry so you should be able to
play anything anywhere foranybody in the Army.
That's me pulling rank.

Jay Franze (49:30):
You shouldn't have to get permission from the
artist to play their song.

I totally agree.

Jay Franze (49:36):
I mean it's not like you're saying that the artist
is supporting you.

Right, I think I would just be honored that they
chose my song to play my song.

Jay Franze (49:45):
You are new here.
What we do is, at this point inthe show, we go ahead and talk
about a song that we'verecommended last week and then
we throw out another one we'regoing to recommend this week.
Last week I brought up the bandHalocene, because the week
before I threw out a band calledno Apology and we wanted to go
ahead and discuss themIndependent artists out of the
Ukraine.
This week we're throwing outHalocene, an artist originally

(50:09):
from Arizona I think they're nowin Tennessee and then next week
we'll go ahead and tie it alltogether with the collaboration
that the two did together.
But, miss Tiffany Halocene,what do you?

think that's my name.
Don't wear it out.
Don't try to buy it at Target,because it's all sold out.
What other?

Jay Franze (50:30):
buttons do we have over here?
If these buttons were labeled,I'd be hitting them like a
madman today.

Yeah, no, I checked them out.
I do love that you have pointedout that all their videos are
done in their house, which ispretty impressive.
I listened to I don't know fiveor six of their songs and
actually I really liked one bythe Guy.
Regardless, I liked his voiceand I was more appreciative or

(50:58):
more aware of the cleanliness ofthe music and the voices and
all the you know.
It's a cleaner sound and so Iliked it.

Jay Franze (51:07):
To me when I listen to Halocene.
I think they are.
You know, they're polished.
I think they are you know?
They're polished, I mean, butthey're very talented, and it's
not just the talents musically,like I said, it's production
wise.
It's everything that they do toput their music out there.
They do these live streams thatgo on for hours.
They'll just continue playingsongs, just as much as people
want to hear them.
You know, just keep throwingthem a few shekels here or there

(51:29):
and they just keep playing, andplaying, and playing.
But what I like is whensomebody requests a song that
they don't know, they just goahead and mute the microphones
for a minute, learn it in asecond or two and then play it.

Yeah.

Jay Franze (51:42):
It's pretty talented when a band can do stuff like
that.

It makes me think of I don't know what y'all call
it, but it makes me think ofthe yellow pages of the artists,
the on-call people, the union,the union.

Jay Franze (51:54):
The musicians union.

The musicians union?
Yeah, they could be part of it.
It still blows my mind and Iknow that you say that, like you
know, there's only so manyscales or so many chords or
whatever, but it still isimpressive to me to just be able
to pick it up and fit in.

Jay Franze (52:10):
All right, miss Scarlet, you're going to have to
go back and listen to Hallucine, okay, so that way you can give
your feedback next time.
But they do a collaboration andit's a cover tune.
They've done a handful ofcollaborations, but they do a
cover tune of Kickstart my Heartby Motley Crue.
So check it out, join us nextweek.

(52:31):
We'll go ahead and we'lldiscuss that one as well.

Hey.
I'm getting a welcome back.

Jay Franze (52:39):
We didn't necessarily say you Do.
I have a button for you yet no,okay, bill Mayer Mar, is that?

right Mar Damn iter Mar Go there.
Right Mar Damn it, Bill Mar.

Jay Franze (52:53):
You would think you would learn that one by now.

I almost asked you you like comedy?

No, I got it.

I do like some comedy.
I recently got into some of it.

Jay Franze (53:03):
I would say comedy and country music go hand in
hand.

Yeah.
I think so too.

Jay Franze (53:09):
I don't think Bill Mar goes hand in hand with
country music.
Go hand in hand?
Yeah, I think so too.
I don't think Bill Maher goeshand in hand with country music.

Maybe Clayton St Judd he's over there.

Jay Franze (53:17):
I think Bill Maher's over there with Beyonce.

He's left field.

Jay Franze (53:23):
There you go, she's joining us already.
Miss Tiffany.

Alright.

Jay Franze (53:28):
Bill Maher.

Well, you guys will be happy then.
He has planned to retire fromstand-up after taping his 13th
HBO special later this year.
The comedian, who is 68, willcontinue to host his political
talk show Real Time with Billand his podcast Call of Brandon.
Bill who, maher.

Jay Franze (53:49):
Maher, there you go.

So I didn't realize he had a podcast.
But that doesn't really shockme either.
I feel like all the major newsanchors have a podcast.
It seems like.

Jay Franze (54:00):
Scarlett, are you familiar with this podcast?

I'm not.

Jay Franze (54:04):
It's called Club Random and it's filmed out of
his house.
It's actually his guest house.

That's where.
I am my guest house.

Jay Franze (54:11):
You choose Scarlett, it doesn't surprise me, she's
in her guest house too.
But yeah, so he bought thishouse.
I forget what celebrity hebought it from, but whoever it
was had this guest house, andthey had a nightclub built into
their guest house.
So Bill Maher kept thenightclub, so that's why it's

(54:31):
called Club Random.
But he's turned it into hispodcast studio.
He interviews all thesecelebrities, but he sits there
and drinks and smokes pot theentire time.

How does he keep his political show?

Jay Franze (54:44):
I have no idea.

Scandalous yeah.

Jay Franze (54:48):
Mike Tyson gets on there and smokes pot with them.
Not everybody smokes pot withthem, but they'll sit there
while he does.
It strikes me as odd.
It's a very odd thing.
Sometimes I don't think heknows how to read the room.
Sometimes he makes people feela little uncomfortable.
All right, sorry.

Okay.
Well, some comedians havecelebrated the news that the
Golden Globe Awards willintroduce the category for Best
Stand-Up Comedy Performance.
Earlier this week, it wasannounced that the annual awards
will introduce two newcategories for the lineup for
its forthcoming January ceremony, nice.
So why does it say two newcategories in the lineup, but

(55:34):
we're only talking about one.
I wonder what the other one is.

Jay Franze (55:37):
I don't know.
But I am a fan that we'readding stand-up comedy to it.
I think it deserves to have itsown category.
It is a big piece ofentertainment television and
specials and all that stuffthese days.
I've been watching so muchlately.
It's ridiculous.
Ms Scarlett, you said youstarted watching some comedians.

(55:57):
Anybody that we would know?

Well, john Chris, I mean, I like John Chris
.
Liam Morgan, danae Hayes oh myGod, have you heard of Danae
Hayes?

How are you hearing of them?
Yes, TikTok.

Oh, I've become familiar with her on
TikTok and, if I'm not mistaken,she used to play baseball I
mean softball at the Universityof Alabama.
She's really crazy.
Yeah, I love her.

Cool, check her out.

You'll have to do that.
Actually, my friend bought ustickets to go watch her upcoming
show that she's going to bedoing, and so I'm excited.
How do you spell Hayes?
H-a-y-e-s?
I think it's how she spellshers.

That's how I was going to spell it, perfect.

Jay Franze (56:47):
I thought that was me for a second.
I'm like huh, I was going tomake sure I gave you the right
spelling.
I was about to get your firebutton ready.

Well, if you can't find her, denae Hayes if
it's not spelled like that, butI think it's spelled like that.
I was going to look her up foryou, make sure I gave you the
correct spelling, but instead Igave you two dozen roses.

It's appropriate right.
It ties into the evening.
Okay, Are you ready for thenext one?

Jay Franze (57:15):
Wait, no, no, Greg says Shenandoah and Cletus T
Tying country music and comedytogether.

Hand in hand.

Jay Franze (57:24):
It's always gone together and comedians have
always gone out on the road andopened up for music acts I would
die to go to a concert and havea comedian open up for them.

Yeah, that's what I'm talking about even when we
mc stuff.

Jay Franze (57:42):
That's what we do too.
Is you?
You do like a five minute setwhen you're right, okay, well,
louis, ck my just the name alone.
Let's pause for the name.
Let's let it sit scarlet, doyou know?
Louis ck I don't.
I'm learning a lot you'relearning a lot today.

(58:02):
Anyways, sorry, louis ck, hetells stories.
He tells a lot of stories inhis humor.
It's not just like punchlinejokes.

I love when a comedian can do like their whole
hour set and you know theybuild this story and they tell
little side stories and all of asudden, like one of the last
things that they say ties intothe first and I'm like, oh yes,
oh God, that is my yes, oh God,that is my favorite style.

Jay Franze (58:32):
Yes, I agree with you 100%.

Yeah, yeah, clever talent.
Okay.
Well, I guess he used to have atradition to ask people to have
him be inappropriate.
They would agree.
Then they would get mad aboutit.

Jay Franze (58:46):
So Can't just throw it out there just like that.
But yes, he got in a little bitof a scandal a little while
back and he was canceled becausehe asked a couple people that
were working for him if theywould mind if he exposed himself
and then touched it for alittle while, and they said it

(59:09):
was okay but then it wasn't andthen turned around and all a
bunch of them got together andcomplained about it and then he
ended up getting killed.
He didn't get in trouble overbecause they said it was okay,
but so now he's making jokesabout his junk you would think,
once you get in a scandal likethat, you would lay off the junk

(59:30):
jokes.

Yeah, no, no, he's going for it.
So he, the disgraced comedian,performed A night of stand up at
the Hulu Theater in MadisonSquare Gardens, nice.

Jay Franze (59:46):
I still like Louis CK.
I just I don't need to see hisjunk leave your junk jokes at
home leave your junk at home.
Well, that shit comes with yougrew up together, went through a
lot of hard times and we'releft.

(01:00:09):
That's pretty much.
That's right way low all right,bring it back.
What's going on this week?
Miss tiffany, do you have anyexciting news that we could
share?

Tiffany Mason (01:00:21):
that might not get us canceled well tomorrow.
Actually I'm really excited.
Um, I have a new episode comingout Finally.
It's been forever, darylStevens.
He actually started Bass Parlorapp.
I think I shared that with youmany moons ago and we talked
about a song by Curtis Mayfieldcalled Give Me your Love, and

(01:00:47):
really he has kind of a coolstory how he went to DC.
He started this thing withcollaborating with other
musicians, kind of in thehip-hop rap scene, and then he
thought he was going to bedrafted in baseball and he
wasn't.
So then he actually moved downto florida and went to full sail
, learned how to be a audioengineer, everything that goes
along with it he really producesmostly.
So then then he went to Atlantaand tried to start up the

(01:01:09):
collaborations again.
Then COVID hit and then hebasically developed this app
that helps people to collaborate.
But also, you know like themusic industry is we've talked
about it before where it'sbecoming more and more difficult
to make money off of just yourmusic.
So this was a way for them.
You know, like you, jay, couldeven go on there and host an

(01:01:32):
engineering class Me, you, theJay, franci, could go on there,
yeah, and you can make moneydoing that.
But he just he had a cool voicein general so he was just fun
to talk to but good storytellerand it was interesting to learn
about the Curtisis mayfield songand all the things I went with

(01:01:52):
it.
So that comes out tomorrow allright, anything else there, miss
