We've had some guests on here and we always want to ask
Because we do outlaw country, right?
king of country
Oh, don't even don't you say it?
You can say whatever your heart tells you to say you can say whatever you want
You're entitled to your opinion, even though you're wrong if you say george straight, but you can say whatever you want. Go ahead

(02:42):
Wait, but is it between the two people you that you guys already talked about or can I know you could say?
Whoever you want bring someone out of left field the king of country
Country well, you know, i'm a huge dwight fan
Oh, okay
And the fact that he's still doing I feel like he's one of the last kind of like real dudes doing it
from from the
real dudes doing at time

(03:02):
well
he's my fave but uh
Honestly, too. I think I I would need to do a lot more research before I comfortably made a decision
Yeah, okay. Who would your queen of country be queen of country then? Oh
Let me tell you sweet curbs is dolly. She knows
Yeah
It I don't think you can really top dolly like I would vote for dolly for president

(03:25):
I like her and dave chappelle to be on a ticket to dave chappelle
That'd be great
I would probably vote for that. Yeah, I like dave chappelle. He's a funny guy
He did some pretty risque stuff back in the early 2000s. That's hilarious
Wouldn't fly today though. So dwight yogum without further research without further research
My current king of my country. Okay, I suppose would be like that and he does it all he acts he sings he

(03:52):
Yeah. Yeah. Yeah, we did a yeah a show
A while back dwight yokem covered a prince song. Did you know that I believe so? Yes purple rain
Okay, I don't know if you're an expert but he's your favorite
So correct me if i'm wrong didn't they call him the man of mystery because he always wore his hat down on his album covers
I didn't know they called him the man of mystery

(04:13):
It was like something they had down there was like a phrase for him because he always on all of his album covers
And he would like never take that hat off either too
Which then you see him in movies and he sleeps in it. It's like the same hat
You know, he like has a two-year-old kid with the model or something. Really? Yeah, dude right now
Dwight yokem has a two-year-old kid right now. Yeah
Holy crap, how old is he?
two not

(04:35):
The kid is two do you listen? Okay. Yeah, geez, I get you I get you
Okay, so we so we talked about king of country king queen of country. There's a there's this guy out there his name
He I don't know. He's not new but he's been around a while. He died in 1977
Oh, I thought you're gonna say travis billy there's a sky around no by the name of elvis presley
They called him the king of rock and roll. What do you think about that?

(04:58):
Do you think that would be a a logical thing to say?
The king of rock and this is gonna probably piss a lot of people off, but I don't think so
I'm gonna say something that thea said i haven't done enough research. I would say maybe he put it on the map
I don't know if he was the
Curator of rock and roll
well, you know like the controversy with him singing songs that old blues singers were like singing forever and kind of

(05:21):
Taking it and making it his home, but he definitely was like
Yeah, he was monumental. I mean he was born in 19. What was it 1935?
My grandma had an elvis room in her house and she had in her kitchen
uh
Uh clock
and it was uh
Elvis and his hips were the tik tok part. Yeah

(05:42):
Yeah, then some of those folks back in the day. They went crazy over elvis. They had like whole bedrooms whole rooms full of like memorabilia
like you said was my grandmother she had well the clock was in the kitchen, but she had a whole room of elvis like
Not dolls, but dolls, you know on like the little stands and different memorabilia
See and my parents were not elvis people so I didn't get to know about him until I got older like I went to memphis

(06:06):
As an adult and then went to what music did you listen to growing up?
Yeah, they were like beetles people they were like, uh
Etta james billy holliday. Okay, so like bluesy. That's domino jazz blues
But beetles and then I have a bunch of siblings and each sibling kind of had their own style of music. So I got to hear

(06:27):
A bunch of different stuff, you know, seven siblings having all different flavors
So and your dad played music or plays music? No that guitar that I found
He it was like his when he got out of the army
Or no
He got fired. I think from his job
Something he got kicked out. He was done with something. He didn't get fired. He left on his own accord. That's right

(06:48):
He just didn't want to do what they said anymore
Um, and he had like 600 bucks I think in his pocket and he bought this guitar
What is 600 bucks can that be but he didn't know how to play or anything. He just bought it
And I didn't know that it existed until I found it as like a 28 year old whatever and it's like dad
You play guitar anyway, that's how I got my first guitar
Really? I was driving down the freeway and there was a guitar center

(07:10):
And i'm like, I think I should buy a guitar. Yeah, I pulled in today's the day. I got 300 bucks
Funders are a lot of people's first guitars. I have that that same guitar. That's crazy. Her name is linda. But anyway, so
I digress so you've been to memphis. Yeah, you've checked it out. I went there too. I went on a harley ride

(07:33):
Years ago. I loved it. Did you like it? Yeah
Yeah, I went to I went to graceland. Yeah, graceland had to go check it out. This place is my graceland. This is my graceland
Movie ace venture. There you go
When he goes to ray finkel's house ray finkel's house, this is my graceland
Well shoot, let's play an elvis song man. Mine is we're on the topic of elvis since you're all

(07:57):
One of the best what's your favorite elvis song?
I think the jailhouse rock is probably one of the and wasn't that one taken from a blues?
Yeah, it was like um, what's her name?
Never mind continue the jailhouse rock. Oh, here we go
One threw a party in the county jail the prison band was there they began to wait

(08:21):
The band was jumping and the jump began to swing. You should have heard this locked out jailbird sing
Hell rock spider murphy played his inter saxophone little joe was blowing on the slide trombone

(08:44):
The drum above him elinor would crash boom bang the whole rhythm section was a purple gang
47 said number three
You're the cutest jam bird I ever did see I sure would be delighted with your company

(09:10):
Come on and do the jailhouse rock

(09:40):
Gonna weep and all alone the water said anybody don't you be no square you can't find a partner use a wooden
To the jailhouse rock everybody let's rock everybody in the whole cell put down to do the jailhouse rock
Shifter hindrance at the books for heaven's sake the ones looking out a chance to make a break

(10:04):
I turned the shifter and he said nicks nicks. I want to stick around a while to get my kick

(10:35):
All right
Jailhouse rock elvis presley. That's actually a really good song. That's that's probably
One of my favorite elvis presley songs, but again king of rock and roll
I don't know
I think he's the king
I think he's the king because he literally set the pace for rock and roll set it up. I think so. Yeah

(10:57):
Seeing that movie, but he did make me like yeah
Wow, yeah pretty cool. I didn't see the movie but anyway, a lot of people didn't like it
So going on with you. Um thea what's going on in your world? You got any albums coming out?
Um, i've got a single coming out july 5th called whiskey revival
And then there is an ep that I am planning on releasing before this year is up which will be called whiskey revival, but there's still

(11:22):
Two to three more songs that need to be recorded. Oh that
Yeah, heck. Yeah, you know what? So I gotta tell you the one of my favorite songs cover songs that you do is uh,
Nancy sinatra these boots are made for walking. It's a crowd pleaser. Yeah, that's an old ass song 1966
What were mustangs looking like then?
What were what mustangs the cars better than they look today?

(11:45):
True way better than they look today exactly say less. Yeah all cars back then
Look better. Maybe that was my first time the other day say less say less
Yeah, yeah, we were talking to someone and they were like say less and I was like, is that good or bad?
Don't speak so you grew up with a lot of inspirations of music then

(12:10):
Yeah
And also you have well who you're the youngest of seven eight total
Okay, so you had all that from your brothers and sisters to music that they listen to very different tastes too
like the oldest april she was more into like
reggae and
uh kind of old school r&b and um

(12:35):
Then jeanine was like super kind of wacky out there like triangle man triangle man
That was that I knew about that from her. I guess that's not super wacky. But do you guys know that song do not?
That's it triangle man meets particle man. They have a fight triangle wins triangle man triangle man

(12:58):
All right, so i'm i'm a musician myself i've done i've done a lot of gigs
I know you've done a lot of gigs all over the place theo. Yeah, give me the triangle man. Oh, is that it?
No, it's by they might be giants. I've heard that they might be giants. Oh, it's particle man. That's right
Yeah
It sounds like something out of sesame street or something

(13:19):
Or like schoolhouse rock like you're about to learn a lesson. She would always do this dance when the course came
Up next mr. Rogers
That's fun
uh, because when I listen to thea's music she's
All over the place. Oh, yeah, I mean from like hip hop to all kinds of stuff. Yeah, you're amazing

(13:48):
Yeah, i'll come on the show anytime
I mean you're okay. I mean how do you get from here?
That's not me it's a man
You're smoking out of the bus be gone asleep. Wow, that's the same right?

(14:09):
No, that's the dude the band though, but that yeah, okay
Blues here, no
Do the same damn thing
I mean, how cool is that? That's you. Yeah
I'm probably anyway, i'm one of those really really really the loyalists who like know all of her songs

(14:39):
I like what doug walker did with it with the two candy
He's great. All right thea what's the uh
What's the most so you know, like I said, i'm a musician too and i've done i've done gigs
And uh, sometimes gigs go very good and sometimes it's a complete
Shyster show
Give me a shy show. Oh man. Give me a good one

(15:02):
Out of your head. Oh
Oh my um
Well, usually it just the the main culprit is when I drink too much
There's a song for that too. We can play that later. It's called drink too much and uh
Drink too much and um
Then you know things start to fall apart and uh, apparently the drummer aka my husband doesn't like to be playing when that's how it's going

(15:24):
So he'll just he'll just opt to kind of walk off stage just taking a break. Yeah
Okay, so you're both musicians. Let me ask you a question
Would you rather play to an empty room or like five people?
Or a whole room full of people that could care less that you're singing
Oh five that care. Yeah five that care like just your background noise

(15:48):
They're both good
I mean you you build your chops by playing to rooms like that and then it's cool to see that when you don't care and you're
Like, okay, I just got to be myself then and then it attracts the right people. Okay, you know, and so it's cool
So it's like hey, you're doing your thing and absolutely you should
I go places and I don't want to have to listen. You know what I mean?
Well, what made me think of it is I can't I honestly can't think of the name of it
But there's a winery and we went there and it was very crowded like 150 people

(16:13):
And they had a guy set up on their patio playing music
Absolutely. Nobody was listening. There was like a birthday party over here a bridal shower over here
and he was just like
I just did it sound good. Did it sound good? Well, I didn't even listen because we weren't you couldn't even hear
Yeah, there's just like so much going on here
So I was just wondering is that better or is like the five people that came?

(16:36):
So let me tell you we did the show one time for a private party
And uh the stage was like right in front of this little pond
And the house was probably about 100 yards away. Oh, it's not maybe give you like umbrellas or anything
Yes, we were like 100 yards away just playing to like know but but they were all like up at the house
but they were like we would get down with the song and we could like

(16:58):
Just barely hear them clapping. I'm like, can you all even hear us? Like you can't you can't you can't you can't
Okay, they hear us they're clapping they're doing stuff
It was so awkward because they were so far away
I mean if we want to talk weird too. All right. Yeah, let's hear some weird ones like so we played a private party
and it was kind of like um

(17:19):
Well, there was like someone naked in front of us who like came in front of the the people playing and like did a headstand
man or woman woman, okay, and it was like
Okay, we're play it was kind of like a I think what you say like naked
naked
Totally naked. Okay, the way she came into the world

(17:40):
And then we walked around the house and stuff like after we got done playing and there was like
Remember you were talking about fives too many scenario. There were scenarios like that going on around the house. I was like what did we
Well, they had some really good ribs though like meat falling off the dog
Basically hired a band for like an orgy
I think it was like a like mood music and party it it had some swingers party or something

(18:07):
There was definitely like some witch crafter. Was there a bowl with keys in it anywhere in the room?
Probably that sounds familiar
Wow keys. Wait a minute
Like hold up she's scooby doing this whole thing
You never heard of like a key party a key party a whole bunch of people come like swingers
And they throw their keys in the bowl and you take out keys and that's who you leave with

(18:29):
Oh my
Sorry mom turn off the radio don't ask me how I know that
All right, i'm
I'm kind of wondering how do you know that actually i'll be honest. There was a show on nbc called swingers and that was the whole
Premise of the show is at least two neighbors that were in the same neighborhood forever

(18:50):
They were best friends. Wow, the one neighbors moved into a new neighborhood and they were all swingers
And they got into this whole
My sister and I would watch it
Who's inspiring you these days thea?
I was realizing lately that like I am terrible about um
listening to music like I either like sit silently or like

(19:13):
Don't make fun of me. Sometimes listen to was I pulling up and I was like the bible was being read to me
Oh, sorry, i'm pointing and you guys can't see me and you don't even know who i'm pointing at
Because it was
whatever
Podcasts and stuff and I was like man music people have been asking me things and I just feel like a big dummy
So I need to get back into like remembering things

(19:34):
um
So red red clay strays they've red clay strays. Yeah, i've been feeling them. Um
Um, I was also I was on a road trip with uh,
Stacey antonel we did a run of shows her music is freaking awesome
Um stacey's really good. Oh and and it was like we haven't hung out very long ever and we just spent the last

(19:58):
Six days or whatever together and it was like so easy and so fun. Um
Um, but so then it was like we were talking about local people too
And so just kind of putting up local people on the radio and and it's cool to just like
Oh, these are all the people we play a little stacey antonel. Hey, yeah
I would think that yeah, is that all right? Yeah, turn it up

(20:40):
I drink beer too
Oh
Your guitar's in my hand

(21:00):
Your smoke below skyward
Toward the ceiling fan
Oh
Please let me be beneath you

(21:25):
Me shy carpets curling
Between my toes as you play I keep staring
My heart clickings and slows
Silence a strange kind of bliss the look in your eyes

(21:55):
It's a wilderness
Oh, I want to be beneath you tonight
I want to be beneath you tonight
Please let me be
Beneath you

(22:41):
Me
Please let me be beneath you

(23:02):
And I want to be beneath you
You please let me be with you

(23:41):
So
Mama i'm calling i've got some news
Don't you tell daddy?
He'll blow a fuse. Don't worry. I'm doing okay
I know you raised me to know right from wrong

(24:05):
It ain't what you think and i'm still writing songs
I just never thought i'd see the day
I've never felt this way
I met somebody
He's got blue eyes
He opens the door and he don't make me cry

(24:26):
He ain't from where we're from but he feels like oh yeah, he's got me doing things i've never done

(24:49):
Took me to noxville last saturday
And I wore the hat on his dash to the game
I sure wasn't at things but I
fell for him under those kneeling lights
I met somebody

(25:09):
He's got blue eyes
And did they call this in? I'm wearing tensee arms for him

(25:48):
Oh, I can't lie
Hell, I'm learning the words to old rock guitar
And he's got a smile that makes me forget
I've always looked better when he read

(26:08):
But I met somebody
And he's got blue eyes
I met somebody

(26:30):
And he's got blue eyes
In Georgia they call it a sin

(26:52):
And I still want the dogs to win
But I'm wearing tensee arms for him
I'm wearing tensee arms for him

(27:14):
Alright. What do you think about that, Sweet Curbs?
That's a great song. That is...
Would you consider that an outlaw country song though?
Yeah, I mean, I don't know outlaw but like a traditional classic kind of song.
Like an old school country, yeah.
I like it.
What do you think about the newer...
Well, it's mainstream because it's new but the vibe of it to me is...

(27:38):
Like the newer...
Like you like Tyler Chillers or whatever the hell you want to say it.
What do you think? Do you think that's outlaw country or is that just normal country?
Tyler Chillers?
I think his older stuff, yeah.
Like White House Road?
We're going to refer to him as Tyler C from now on.
I know. Chillers, Chilers, Chillers, whatever.

(28:00):
What about... Yeah, so Tyler Chilers, so outlaw.
Yeah, because my definition, I guess the difference in that song and like a Tyler Chilers, Chillers, C whatever song.
Tyler C!
How come no one can remember?
He sings about doing... I don't want to say bad things but taboo things. You know what I mean?
Going against the grain, doing drinking and smoking and partying and fighting.

(28:26):
Yeah, White House Road. Yeah, that's a good one.
I think that's like the outlaw or living outside the law.
Okay, so...
Outlaw. I get it.
So you know who Luke Bryan is?
Outlaw or no?
No.
No. Thea? No.
That's like pop country. It's not bad. I mean people like it. It has its place in the world but not outlaw.

(28:48):
Yeah. What about Blake Shelton?
Some of his stuff is.
His older stuff.
I don't think I know his stuff well.
Well even like God's Country, I would consider that a little outlaw vibes.
True.
Old Red.
What makes it different? Like when you hear like outlaw country or you hear Southern Rock.
When you hear Southern Rock, who do you think of?

(29:10):
Leonard Skinnerd.
Exactly, Leonard Skinnerd.
Why is that not considered country though?
Remember CMT, that old like, it was like an MTV with their country music?
They had a show called Crossroads and it was like Southern Rock, Rock Country and Classic Country and they would like...
Okay. What about Stevie Ray Vaughan? Blues, country or Southern Rock?

(29:32):
Blues country I would say.
Texas Blues.
Texas Blues? I love Stevie Ray Vaughan.
I feel like the same people that listen to outlaw country listen to Southern Rock.
I think.
I mean genres are so rock.
It's like a Venn diagram, you know what I mean?
They have them bucketed over here.
And there's some in the middle.
As you get older you appreciate other styles more and then you start to bring them into your fold.

(29:57):
Is that what it is?
Yeah.
38 Special.
That was ZZ Top.
ZZ Top, Southern Rock.
The Allman Brothers.
Allman Brothers.
Right?
Molly Hatchett.
Georgia Satellites.
Marshall Tucker Band.
Southern Rock but it's still...
Look at this, we're just going on.
We got the whole list.
We're naming people right now.
I like the naming man.
No, I mean...
But don't you think, okay, because you said Marshall Tucker, don't you think there are modern artists today that drew inspiration from Marshall Tucker that aren't necessarily the same kind of music but they grew up on it and it was an influence on them?

(30:31):
Well, maybe.
I think the country scene pulled Kid Rock into their scene.
Dude, okay, so let's talk about Kid Rock for a second.
And all of a sudden he's like...
You can go on Pandora.
Is he one of somebody's favorites in here?
You can go on any station.
No Eric's favorite is Milli Vanilli.
We learned that on a previous episode.
It could be a rap station.

(30:53):
It could be a rock station.
It could be an outlaw station.
It could be a Southern frickin' rock station.
Kid Rock's on all of them.
All of them.
Yeah, that's true.
Yeah, he is.
He's got it saturated.
Do you agree with you?
All you gotta do is try it.
Go to any station.
All you gotta do is try it.
20 minutes and you'll hear a frickin' Kid Rock song.
It might be rap.
It'll only hurt for a second.

(31:15):
Does he have rap?
He does have rap.
I'm a cowboy.
Remember that one that he did?
That's not really cool.
That's so stupid.
Yeah, I mean, hip hop.
I like Kid Rock, but not really.
I mean, he's alright.
I love Kid Rock.
Kid Rock's cool.
That's my generation.
Alright.
Right?
Yeah.
This is a take off of Sweet Home Alabama and Werewolves of London.

(31:42):
Do it.
Yeah.
This is Sweet Home Alabama part right here.
Yeah.
You know how I know that?
How do you know that?
Because my band Dirty Confetti does it.
Oh, geez.
Well, dude, let's listen to a Tyler Chiller song.

(32:04):
Chiller Tyler.
How the hell do you want to say it?
Tyler C song.
Can we figure it out now?
Can we pull up something that pronounces it for us?
You're going to pull up two things.
You're going to pull up Chilers and Children.
Tell me how to talk.
I've heard many ways of him saying it.
I want to hear him say it.
Well, here's the thing.
I've tried, I think, and I can't find it.
I said it somewhere and someone corrected me.

(32:25):
And I said to him, but you know who I'm talking about, right?
So that's the important part.
There you go.
Here's the thing.
I just never remember which way I've said it and which way I was corrected.
So I'm just going to say Tyler Childers.
Is that cool?
Everybody OK with that?
Unless you're wrong.
I mean, don't we want to figure this out for real right now?
Kirby.
She's always the girl with all the truth.

(32:46):
You know what I mean?
We can always pull the truth out of it.
Damn it, Sweet Home Alabama.
Got it.
Pronunciation.
You got it?
What does it say?
It says.
But that's a freaking.
Tyler Childers.
I'm on the Internet.
It can't be wrong.
No, hold on.
Next time.
OK, no, no, that's just bullshit.
OK, hold on.
Wait.
The gospel.
Next time you drive into Poway, put in your GPS and put the voice on.

(33:08):
OK.
And when you're driving into Poway, the voice says you're going into Pooey Road.
Oh, true.
So that's mispronounced mispronunciation right there.
That's probably the same thing because it sounded like the same voice my GPS says.
But anyway.
It's funny to see people spelling it out, though.
They're like, is it Childers or?
Like it's spelled exactly the same.
So like if we all don't know how to say it, it's all thinking children.

(33:33):
He's French.
Yeah.
It's Tyler Schilder Schilder.
German.
It's French.
You have to swallow the last.
Well, my buckle makes impressions on the inside of her thigh.

(34:06):
There are little feathered Indians where we tussle through the night.
If I'd known she was religious, then I wouldn't have came stoned to the house.
Such an angel.
Too fucked up to get back.
Looking over West Virginia, she's got a little

(34:34):
smoke and spirits on the roof.
She asked, ain't anybody told you that them things are bad for you?
I said, many folks award me.
There's been several people try.
But up till now, there ain't been nothing that I couldn't leave behind.
Hold me close, my dear.

(34:55):
Sing your whispering, my dear.
Sing your whispering song.
Softly in my ear.
And I will sing along.

(35:18):
Honey, tell me how your love runs true.
I'll just count on you to be there when the bullets fly.
I'd run across the river just to hold you tonight.

(35:54):
My heart is sweating bullets from the circles it has raised.
Like a little feathered Indian calling out the clouds for rain.
I go running through the thicket.
I go careless through the thorns just to hold her for a minute.
Though it leave me one more.

(36:16):
Sing your whispering song.
Softly in my ear.
And I will sing along.

(36:37):
Honey, tell me how your love runs true.
And how I can always count on you to be there when the bullets fly.
I'd run across the river just to hold you tonight.

(37:49):
So we were talking about Southern rock compared to outlaw country.
Marshall Tucker, outlaw country or Southern rock?
Sweet Curps.
I mean, I would say it's a blend of the two because they sing about things that are not necessarily on the up and up,
but they also are more country than rock and roll.

(38:12):
I don't know.
What makes it more country?
Do they have a fiddle in their band?
Marshall Tucker?
Well, Avam says you have to have a fiddle in the band.
Well, that's if you're going to play in Texas.
Only if you're going to play in Texas.
Oh, that's right.
Yeah.
Tennessee, they don't give a shit.
No, I don't think Marshall Tucker did, but maybe.
I don't know.
I know they got a lead guitar.
And that's another thing, like with Leonard Skinner.
They had that mad ass guitar player that did, oh man, the legendary Freebird, the 14 and a half minute frickin' long solo in that thing.

(38:43):
Yeah, I know.
They used to get tiring.
I'm one of those that have never gotten the whole Freebird thing.
I like the song.
I like the beginning.
But when it gets into the long, you know, drawn out part, you know, it's kind of like that Iron Butterfly song, and I got a DeVita, you know, and I got a DeVita.
Here's my best Freebird story.
So I work at a winery and we have musicians.

(39:05):
And this gentleman was playing and it was the end of the night.
And there's not very many people left in the winery had maybe 15 minutes to play.
And this woman comes in with her friend who was driving.
And the lady was very drunk.
And she kept telling the singer to play Leonard Skinner.
Freebird.
Freebird. Thank you.

(39:26):
I'm like flying out of my mind.
And he's like, no, I'm not singing that.
Like, it's not on my set list.
And every time for the last three songs that this guy played, he would start playing the song and this lady would yell, Freebird!
As loud as she could.
Why did that become the thing?
I don't understand why that.
Well, if you ever saw the live version of it when they did it live, like they had the whole crowd going and they had back in the day, you know how now you go to concerts and they instead of holding up a lighter, they hold up their phones.

(39:58):
Well, this is all lighters.
I still hold a lighter.
He was like, oh, man, I could feel the heat from those lighters.
There was so many lighters for that song as well.
Yeah, it's a good video.
Look it up on YouTube.
Pretty cool.
I don't get it.
All right.
So like I said, Marshall, I don't like spam.
I don't like the free birds.

(40:19):
No, I'm just kidding.
I do love Leonard Skinner though.
One of my favorite songs is Curtis Lowe, the Ballad of Curtis Lowe.
One of my favorite ones.
That is one of my favorite ones.
We're just doing a show the other day and dudes all, do you guys know when he's Skinner?
I'm like, yeah.
He's like, I bet you don't know Curtis Lowe.
I'm like, oh, that song, let me check with the band real quick.

(40:42):
And then we pulled it out.
He was just like, wow, never heard a band do that before other than Leonard Skinner.
That's funny.
That was at PAMA.
Yeah, that was at PAMA.
Pretty good.
Things happen at PAMA.
My mom can't say a PAMU.
PAMU.
PAMU.
A lot of people say PAMU.
I mean, Childish Children.

(41:03):
I know what you're talking about.
Yes.
Orange, tomato, tomato, tomato, tomato, tomato, orange, orange, orange, orange.
Oh no, pecan or pecan.
Brown or brown.
Sweet curbs, pecan or pecan.
I say pecan.
Like if I say pie, pecan pie.
Pecan.
Yeah.
Pecan or pecan.

(41:24):
Pecan.
Pecan.
Get out of here, Yankee.
Get out of here, you freaking Yankee.
No, in South Carolina, we had fucking pecans all.
Oh damn.
Keep cussing, sorry.
Does it matter?
No, it doesn't matter.
Really?
We can cuss.
We just got to put a disclaimer on the thing.
Hallelujah.
Oh.
Yeah.
Thea, you can feel free to jump in with any F-bombs or S-bombs that you want.

(41:47):
Great.
Golly whiz.
Just remember your mom probably looks like this.
Golly darn.
We're getting ready to go play.
Have you met her mom?
I have met her mom.
Her mom is so damn cool.
We're going to play in Oregon in July and we got booked at this place.
It's like nice, right?
My sister called me who lives in Portland and she was like, because she had found out
if it was all ages or not and it's all ages.

(42:08):
So then we talked and one of the first things she says, she was like, so you might need
to not curse.
And I was like, Tama, I've changed.
I'm a new woman.
You don't even know what I do anymore.
I can read a room.
I can read a room.
If there's eight year olds in there, I'm not cursing.
And here's the thing, if they're eight year old, I'm going to keep it on their level of
cursing.
They curse a lot though.

(42:29):
They just don't use it right.
They'll be like, what the shit ass munch.
Like it's hilarious.
They don't know how to use it.
Well, I mean, I remember when I was a kid, you probably do too.
It's doing the same stuff.
I don't know what the hell this stuff means.
I don't think I cursed until I was probably about four years old.

(42:51):
And I don't know, one of my sister's friends, she did the bird middle finger.
I don't know what the hell it meant.
So I was sitting on the kitchen table.
We're eating dinner.
I was like, mom.
And she didn't love it.
Did you do it to like, to see how it would go?
Or were you trying to communicate?

(43:12):
I didn't know what it meant.
I was just like, oh, you didn't know what it meant.
I didn't know what it meant.
But I saw somebody do it.
My sister's friend do it.
And I was like, oh, that looks pretty cool.
That's like in the Beverly Hillbillies, the movie, someone flipped him off on the freeway.
That's the California way.
No, the California howdy.
And so every time they pass a car, they'd flip them off.

(43:35):
All right.
Anyway, off topic.
Let's get back onto the music, the outlaw versus the Southern rock.
So let's let's do a Southern rock song.
Marshall Tucker band, most famous ones.
Can't you see?
I can't.

(44:06):
So
.
.

(44:27):
.
.
.
I'm gonna take a freight train

(44:49):
Down at the station lot
I don't care where it goes
I'm gonna climb a mountain
The highest mountain
Jump off, nobody gonna know
Can't you see, oh can't you see

(45:13):
What that woman, Lord, she been doin' to me
Can't you see, can't you see
What that woman, she been doin' to me
I'm gonna find me a hole in the wall

(45:38):
I'm gonna crawl inside and die
Come later now, my mean old woman, Lord
Never told me goodbye

(46:01):

(46:41):
I'm gonna buy a ticket now
As far as I can
Ain't never coming back
Ride me southbound
All the way to Georgia now
To the train and run out of track

(47:05):

(47:27):
Oh Lord

(47:53):

(48:16):
Can't you see
Oh she's such a crazy lady
Can't you see
Lord I can't stand to see

(48:40):
Can't you see
I'm gonna take a freight train
Can't you see
Down at the station
Can't you see
Gonna ride me southbound
Down the city
All the way to Georgia now
Can't you see

(49:01):
To the train and run out of track
Can't you see

(49:45):
Alright, we're back. That was great. ZZ Top. Southern Rock, Outlaw Country.
Thea, what do you think?
Thea.
I don't know. Didn't they get bluesy?
They didn't get kinda bluesy. You know, Hank Williams.
But that's what I mean, it all kind of blends genres and all kind of sways all sides.
Yeah, you know who I think has an opinion? Stacy Buckington.

(50:09):
Is she still here?
If only we could ask her.
Yeah, she's still here.
If only we could somehow ask her.
Can you believe Stacy Antonello called in?
Travis Billy Ross is backwards right now.
He's all twisted.
I don't know what the fuck is going on. No, I'm just kidding.
I'm drinking too much here.
Stacy Antonello called in. Remember like ten minutes ago?
And we're like, we've been hanging out with her for like five minutes.

(50:31):
You were asking her all kinds of cool questions.
And none of them were recorded?
Stacy, hi darling, how are you?
Hi, I'm good.
Stacy, you're confused so is I.
Wait, what? You're gonna go with what?
You're gonna go with rock? ZZ Top? Rock?
Yeah.
That's probably right.
Southern rock.
What did you tell me my music was?

(50:52):
Your music? Like your style of music?
Stacy, she told me on our road trip.
Did I?
Oh wow, you're like me.
Can you guys hear that echo?
Did I?
I like that.
If we could back up for just five seconds here, because like we all went through this really crazy wormhole
about sixty seconds ago, and all of our audience is probably sitting there scratching their head.

(51:14):
Why is Kirby covering her face?
They can't see me, I didn't do that.
So first of all, a little bit ago we were told that Thea and Stacy went on tour together.
Oh yeah.
And then we were just like oogling and ogling over the two of them and imagining both of them on tour together.
And she goes, I'll just call her.

(51:35):
And that's how we ended up with the Stacy Antonello.
Now you're Stacy on the phone.
Now everybody knows.
There you are. There you are Stacy.
Okay.
So tell me about the tour. Do you guys have fun?
Yeah.
You go Thea.
That was an anthetic.
I'm hearing this echo.
So I don't know if you guys are hearing an echo.
I'm not hearing an echo.

(51:57):
Not too much of an echo.
Okay.
I think everybody's getting too excited.
It was the coolest thing. I didn't watch television for six days.
We were in the car for many, many hours and Stacy, I don't know if this is usually how you drive, but the radio did not come on basically until our way back home.
And when it did come on, it was for maybe 30 minute snippets.
So we got to know each other.

(52:20):
We just talked, made jokes.
You guys got to know each other?
Remember how life used to be?
Crazy.
And it's like if you want to change things, quit complaining about it, just start being the way you want things to be.
Which like I love getting to just talk with people and have that one on one.
Anyway, I was like, wow, I didn't turn on television for six days or something like that and hardly listened to the radio.

(52:44):
And yet somehow like we hung out and had a good time.
It's crazy.
So give me one of those weird road trip only super secrets about Stacy that you're like, you know what I learned on the road about Stacy?
So many things which I'm not allowed to repeat.
Not even a small one.
Stacy will snitch on you though.
I think Stacy knows what they are and maybe she'll rat herself out perhaps.

(53:06):
Can you?
Save yourself, say something.
I'm sure you've had some crazy experiences.
Well, I feel like I should come clean about the fact that I did watch TV.
I watched The Office every night before I went to sleep.
She got the fancy room at one of the places.
So there went the sisterhood.
My favorite episode of The Office is when Michael Scott burns his foot on his George Foreman grill.

(53:32):
I like that episode where they're trying to learn CPR.
Stacy knows it apparently.
Did you see that one, Stacy?
She knows her audience.
She didn't know we were office fans.
I've seen the whole thing like 10 times.
That's crazy.
How fun.
Well, that was a fun tour.
How long were you guys together?

(53:53):
Like six, five, six days, six days I think.
I saw some cool pictures.
Did you guys get all the little touristy shots?
She's better at taking those.
Like there's some of me just like laying on a hotel bed passed out and I didn't realize that was there.
And I'm like, oh, I get it.
That goes in your story.
You posted a fun video though of like Stacy opening the door to your little poolside.

(54:14):
The Japanese bathhouse, man.
That was fun.
And like it was like a cold plunge too, which was cool.
Like you get all hot and then you go cold plunge and it was like painful, but it was really good.
We could only afford the group bathhouse.
Oh, you guys got the group rate?
We got the group rate.
Thankfully no one else wanted it.
Nudity and courage.

(54:35):
Oh Lord.
So you guys doing it again soon or are you guys?
Actually, yes.
Stacy is going to come with the, when we start, we release Whiskey Revival.
We're going to go on a tour up the coast to Vancouver, essentially in back Vancouver, Washington.
So I guess Seattle's further to Seattle and back and Stacy and to know we'll be traveling along and opening shows for us.

(55:01):
And I think she hasn't decided whether she's going to utilize any of my band members, bring her own fella or play solo.
I'm leaning against playing solo.
It was so scary the last few days.
Playing solo?
Yes.
Okay, that sounds like an interesting story.

(55:22):
All my songs are like 60 seconds.
They're not that great.
It's a weird mental confidence thing that I think all of us musicians have.
It's a weird thing.
Playing solo versus playing with the band.
She's great. You're the shit, man.
She is great.
Yeah.
All right, Stacy.
So here's my question for you.
If you could have a song from while you were on tour that you're like, I've been wanting to play this for Thea.

(55:47):
What song would you play?
Yours or somebody else's?
Doesn't matter.
Oh, mine or somebody else's.
I would like to play her Chapel Roan.
Good luck, babe.
No, just kidding.
Good Pedro.
She heard that a lot.
I did.
She was singing it the whole time, but let's play it.
She's so obsessed right now.
No, no, no.

(56:08):
No, do it.
You have to.
Yes, that's the answer.
Do it.
It's exactly what you would do, right?
Yeah, absolutely.
All right, Thea.
And what would you play for Stacy?
Probably an Amos Lee song because I bragged about it when I played not a tune of his for
her.
Amos Lee?
Amos Lee.
Do you have a particular song?
Shoot.
Dang.
I mean, Stacy's so judgy.

(56:29):
I don't want her to be disappointed.
JK.
It's so true.
I talked so much shit on that road trip.
I started singing it.
I was like, I'm going to go to the bathroom.
I'm going to go to the bathroom.
I started singing really bad about myself.
Like, Thea's so positive.
Why am I always so negative?
No, let's see.
What's a good, I was going to say Stama, Stama, Stamos Lee.
The windows are rolled down.

(56:50):
I don't know why that's what I'm thinking.
Well, there you go.
But I don't know if that would be the one.
Anyway, you should go see him and go to his show.
All right.
Well, we just got our next two songs.
Yeah.
So I'm going to get those going.
Stacy, you can hang out if you want.
But if you're not here when we come back, we love you, we miss you.
So when are you going to come into the studio and hang out with us?
I'll be back in July if there's a space open then.

(57:11):
Done.
Cool.
All right.
Consider it done.
Hell yes.
I can't wait.
Oh yes, Stacey.
OK, bye.
It's mine.
It's cool.
You can say that we ain't nothing but you know that we love you.

(57:34):
I know the truth and guess I'm the fool
With their arms out like an angel through the gosh-unreal
I don't wanna call it love, but you don't wanna call it love
You only wanna be the one that I call baby
You can kiss under your boys and boys too

(57:57):
I'm never trying to stop the feeling
I'm saying just the way you are
Make a new excuse, no stupid reason
Good heart, good heart, good heart, good heart
Yeah, to stop the world, just to stop the feeling

(58:20):
I can say, who cares?
It's a sexually explicit kind of love affair
And I cry, it's not fair
I just need a little love and I just need a little air

(58:42):
I think I'm gonna call it love, even if you call it love
I just don't love someone who calls me baby
You can say just the way you are

(59:06):

(59:31):
When you wake up next to him in the middle of the night
With your head in your hands, you're nothing more than his wife
And when you think about me, all of those years ago
You're standing face to face with that old kiss show
You know I hate to say, I told you so
You know I hate to say, but I told you so

(59:55):
You can say just the way you are
Good heart, good heart, good heart, yeah

(01:00:16):
Just stop the world, just to stop the feeling
Just stop the world, just to stop the feeling

(01:00:38):
You'll have to stop the world just to stop the feeling
Look up child

(01:01:00):
The world is gone
Shoes untied
And your soul's a wall
Windows are rolling down
The sun is setting high

(01:01:25):
I'm fixing to die
Come rose-hands
Companion fear

(01:01:49):
It's a rocky road
And they're steering well
Who do you call
To ease your pain
Oh for you
To get through this rain

(01:02:11):
The moon is hanging low
I think it's time for me to go

(01:02:42):
Oh for you
Yes it was
You dreamed it'd be

(01:03:04):
Now you locked up in
This fantasy
Oh this mountain
Torn us apart
My newfound faith
And my broken heart

(01:03:27):
The sun is rising high
Tell that wind I should fly

(01:03:50):
I should fly

(01:04:20):
Down

(01:04:46):
Lord I was born a rambling man
Trying to make a living and doing the best I can
When it's time for leaving
I hope you understand
That I was born a rambling man
My father was a gambler down in Georgia

(01:05:11):
And he wound up on the wrong end of a gun
And I was born in the back seat of a
Grand bus rolling down Highway 41

(01:05:33):

(01:06:14):
I'm on my way to New Orleans this morning
Leaving out of Nashville, Tennessee
They're always having a good time down on the battle lawn
And delta women thank the world of me

(01:06:36):

(01:06:57):

(01:08:11):

(01:08:46):
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh.

(01:09:15):
Lord, I was born a rambling man.
Oh yeah.
All right.
We've got our good friend Thea from Thea the band.
I don't know how to pronounce your last name.
Thea the band is my name.
Thea the band is the last name.

(01:09:36):
That is the name.
The band.
You need to change that legally somehow.
Thea from Thea the band.
Toshihara.
Thea the band.
What is it?
Toshihara.
Toshihara.
Toshihara.
I love that last name.
You know when you used to play Nintendo games and you'd get that you beat the game and get
to the end.
A couple days ago.
Yeah.
Nintendo.
Right.
And you get to the end of like the game and it would show you all the names of all the

(01:09:57):
producers and creators.
Oh yeah.
Yeah.
It was.
Oh yeah.
There were probably quite a few of those.
Quite a few of those.
Well maybe not exactly but they were close.
Did you?
The greatest minds in video gaming came out of Japan.
Oh yeah.
Oh yeah.
They really did.
Yeah.
All video gaming.
Street Fighter.
All those ones.
Dark Man is my favorite game and I have it.

(01:10:19):
Which one?
Dark Man and you can only play it on the regular NES.
Never even heard of it.
The original one where you had to blow into the cartridge.
Dark Man.
It's so fun.
Dude.
Next time you guys come over we're going to play Dark Man.
Okay.
Yep.
You know what was one of my favorite Nintendo games?
Mike Tyson's Punch Out.
I've never played that.
Never played that one?
No.

(01:10:39):
Mike Tyson?
Did you ever play that one?
No but I did.
I never got to play it because the rule was I had two older brothers and whoever died
got the next turn.
So it went from my older brother to my younger brother but it never got to me because it
was Donkey Kong and they were very good.
Dang it.
Donkey Kong?
Yeah and they would play forever.
It was horrible on Nintendo.

(01:11:00):
Shoot.
Alright Thea.
Well thank you so much for hanging out with us.
Thanks so much for having me.
On our Outlaw Country show.
We love you.
We appreciate you.

Or was it a really good time?
I have a lot of things to get through here.

(01:11:42):
I hope you had a good time.
I have a whole cup of whiskey that I have to finish before I leave.
Oh you gotta get through that whiskey there.
It's like a lot of burdens.
Before you leave let's do a salute.
Raise up the glasses y'all.
Hey you need to make a good cheers though.
You have to actually say something good.
And no.
What are you getting?
Who's got a good cheers?
You don't have one?
No.
Here's to.
Eric.

You are so cute.
You go in totally redeem yourself.
Travis loves those.
Someone's supposed to make a cheers.
Okay make a toast.

Over the lips and through the gums.

Whiskey knee or a whiskey on the rocks with the whiskey revival of the other band

I'm pretty great job. I butchered it. No, you did not. Are you kidding me?

It's fantastic. It's great
Now that's one of my favorite that is actually one of my favorite songs that you do originally
Your your cover song. I like uh boots are made for walking, but I do love that whiskey revival song because
I can relate. Yeah, I like whiskey revival and
I can never remember because the song is called one thing and I call it something else child. No, no, no

(01:13:52):
Cry baby started with love. What is the actual name of the cry baby? Love it. So those two are my favorite
We call it started with love though
Baby, it's like near the end is where it really peaks
Nice can we can we send you off with your cry baby song? Yeah
Yeah, let's do that. Heck. Yeah, I love this song actually. Yeah

(01:14:13):
Thanks for coming. This is your mom's favorite song. That's not whiskey drizzling down my
My my this is your mom's favorite. I was gonna call this my cheek my neck my what my chin
There it is. Oh boy
Yeah, I let you go I take it back baby

(01:14:47):
I didn't know he would hurt like crazy
And I'll be the fool for you
If you want me to
Yes, I'll be the fool
If you want me to

(01:15:09):
Just don't make me cry, baby
Tell me this all is a terrible dream
And wake me up
This can't be the way that we end
Wasn't I good?

(01:15:30):
Wasn't I good to you?
Wasn't I good?
Wasn't I true to you?
Now that you're gone
It's all just how you left it
Oh, how, how could you go?

(01:15:51):
How could you go when you promised you'd hold on?
Don't make me cry, baby
And wake me up

(01:16:13):
How could you leave when it hurt just enough to make you cry?
We swore this was love
But if it still was, would it hurt like this?
Now I've battled with my hopeless heart and suspicious smile

(01:16:35):
But I'm still in love, I'm still in love
Can't leave you behind
Don't make me cry, baby
And wake me up

(01:16:59):
We started with love

(01:17:28):
Yeah.
We started with love.
Started with love.
Started with love.
Started with love.

(01:17:53):
Started with love.
Started with love.
Started with love.
That was Thea, Thea the band.
Thank you so much, Thea, for hanging out with us today
on this beautiful Sunday.
I hope you guys are having a great night out there.
I love that girl.
She's so fun.
Yeah, she's killer.
All right, so we're going to go on with the topics here,

(01:18:15):
what we were talking about earlier.
Now it becomes sad and droll.
I'm just kidding.
But hey, you know what's cool?
We got Cassie.
Cassie, go for it.
Cassie's back.
Cassie.
That's probably why he said it was now
going to be sad and droll.
That is not true.
That is not true.
Eric, you take that back.
Welcome back, my wonderful wife.
Now it's going to be sad and droll.

(01:18:35):
That's one of the worst things you know, Travis.
You can empathize, right?
In your head, it sounds really cute and sweet.
And when it comes out of your mouth, they go,
you did not just say that.
You did not just say that.
Oh, schnikes.
I can think of a couple instances where that is very true.
Sad I missed the ad, but I'm glad to be here.

(01:18:56):
All right, so we were talking about ZZ Top.
And I keep ZZ Top, right?
It's been driving you crazy.
Southern rock, right?
So Hank Williams Jr. did a song by ZZ Top.
It was called La Grange.
Let's hear Hank Williams Jr.'s version of it.
Yeah.
I had a dream last night.

(01:19:25):
I heard mama talking to daddy.
She said, Hank, both Seaford wants to boogie woogie.
I heard daddy reply to mama, Audrey, it's in him,
and it's got to come out.
Let the boy boogie woogie.

(01:19:46):
Have mercy.
Rumors spread around in that Texas town about that jack

(01:20:10):
outside of La Grange.
You know, if you want to go to that home out on the range.
They got a lot of girls out there.
They're so nice.
Yeah.

(01:20:58):
All right.
Yeah.

(01:21:18):
Yeah.
Well, I heard it's fine if you've got the time.

(01:21:57):
And you tend to get yourself in.
And here's type, a most every night.
But now I just might be mistaken.
Don't ever know what's going on.

(01:22:20):
Yeah.

(01:23:20):
Here it comes.

(01:24:20):
Oh, man.
Thank God Hank Williams Jr. was a guitar man.
He says that in one of his songs.
Thank God I'm a guitar man.
And he does a great job of that ZZ Top song.
You know, ZZ Top's been around 51 freaking years.

(01:24:42):
They're amazing.
They finally this doesn't ZZ Top sing the Duck Dynasty theme song.
Oh, gosh.
I'm kind of crazy about a sharp dress.
That is as easy.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Is that from the same from Doug?
Yeah.
Can you edit out?
No, no, that's Stan.
That's Stan.
You start singing in the show.

(01:25:04):
It's going on the air.
Okay.
We record in the raw.
We record.
Oh, yeah.
We don't mess around here.
We just we joke around.
We don't mess around.
All right.
So we currency.
We're mentioning something about a group or band or something.
I don't know if it's outlaw country, but I was what is it following you in the Jeep with

(01:25:24):
your motorcycle and I was listening to that outlaw country station on the serious.
And it was a band called Banjo and Sullivan.
And the songs called I'm at Home getting hammered.
But the chorus was basically this dude's at home getting drunk and his wife's out getting
nailed.
It's the funniest song.
That's a good play.

(01:25:45):
And this is a country song or is it?
It is.
It was on the outlaw.
The serious radio outlaw country station.
Oh my gosh, we have to hear this.
That was on serious.
Yeah.
I don't know.
I've listened to the outlaw country show on serious and they played Bruce Springsteen.
So come on.
Well, this one is pretty country.
Is it country?
There's Banjo.
All right.

(01:26:06):
Let's check it out.
So we started in the morning, Karen.
Well into the night.
Throwing dirty dirty.
Sad commentary on a marriage that has failed.
I'm at home getting hammered while she's out getting nailed.

(01:26:28):
Police pulled into my trailer park.
Domestic violence calls somebody after dawn.
Late night with her boss says she's trying to make a sale.

(01:27:09):
I'm at home drinking whiskey in my easy chair.
Watching Jerry Lawler pulling Andy Copeland's hair.
Had a suspicion so I opened up her mail.

(01:27:39):
She used to bring me beer and love all over me.

(01:28:00):
Right before I went on disability.
My wiggler ain't so straight.
I got whiskey day.
Mmm.
Her ankles got so thin
Oh!
.

(01:28:29):
Well the moral of the story is sad but true
I love to drink and she loves to screw
Hope has got a better life riding on the rails
I'm at home getting hammered while she's out getting nailed
Oh my gosh that's a fun fun song. Outlaw country I don't know but it's a funny song.

(01:28:50):
That's a pretty fun song. I have so many questions right now. First though why is Dirty Confetti not doing this one?
I know I think I'm going to send that over to the band. We might have a new cover.
You've gotten in trouble for songs before I think this might fit right in.
You're going to just have to do a I'm in trouble set right?
Maybe the VFW.
They allow it.
Now we play at this family restaurant place and got yelled at

(01:29:14):
for playing a different song.
You know who wouldn't yell at you?
You know that song Bad Things? It was on that TV show.
What was it? True Blood?
Some lady was like oh yeah that was kind of offensive.
I was like what? Oh yeah. I want to do Bad Things.
I thought someone said something about Let's Do It.
Yeah, Let's Do It. It was Let's Do It.

(01:29:36):
Oh yeah and that's what it was.
It was Let's Do It.
Holy crap.
You know who wouldn't yell at you?
Cassie, what are you drinking?
I'm drinking a White Claw because according to Kirby with White Claw there's
Ain't No Laws.
I do have it in my Outlaw BBQ Cousine.
That's killer. Right?

(01:29:58):
No one wants to party with Salads.
And Dean would not yell at you.
You can play that song for Dean any day.
Outlaw BBQ is all in.
I think he'd appreciate that one.
Did you guys have some of that BBQ last Monday?
Oh my goodness. Baby Back Ribs.
That's what I had.
Oh my goodness. Now that was next level to you.
You know it's funny when I saw it on the menu it was like Baby Back Ribs Sandwich.

(01:30:21):
I'm like how do you get through the bones?
He did. He asked me.
I was so confused.
He did. We're standing in line to get our food and he goes
there's bones in that and I'm like honey I think he just probably
it's tender. It's Dean. He knows how to cook.
It's so tender he just literally shakes the meat off the bones.
What's the restaurant? Remember I want my Baby Back, Baby Back.
Oh that was at Chili's right? It was Chili's.

(01:30:44):
I want Dean's.
Baby Back, Baby Back.
So good.
So good.
Okay so back to the music.
We've got this band called ACDC.
You guys know ACDC?
I think I heard of them.

(01:31:06):
Listen now we were talking Southern Rock right?
Air conditioning and what?
Like ACDC. That's more rock right?
Oh very rock.
Is that a little southern?
No.
Okay so check this out.
That doesn't mean that people that don't like Southern Rock don't also like ACDC.
But it is definitely not Southern Rock.

(01:31:27):
I like Southern Rock. I like Outlaw Country.
And I like Metallica. They're not really country but...
Not at all country.
It's my mix of stuff. But anyway so there's this group out there.
It's the funniest damn name.
Steven Seagulls.
Right.
Steve in Seagulls.

(01:31:49):
Is it Steven Seagull undercover?
If you read it fast it's Steve.
It's Steven Seagull.
So they do like this really crazy bluegrass version of Thunderstruck by ACDC.
Oh my gosh.
I have to hear this.
There's banjos in here. There's like spoons.
Like this dude, if you look it up on YouTube there's a video of these guys playing it.

(01:32:12):
And they're like a bunch of hillbillies.
This sounds nuts.
Do they have their shoes on?
No they don't.
Oh even better.
They don't have sweet curbs. They don't even have shirts on.
They're wearing like overalls.
Wait does this count as Outlaw Country? Is it getting into Zydeco?
I'm getting into...I think this would be considered something that transitioned from rock, like hard rock, to Outlaw Country.

(01:32:36):
Alright.
Alright I want to hear this. I gotta hear this.
Check it out.
Yeah!

(01:33:03):
I was caught in the middle of a railroad track
Looked around and I knew there was no turning back
My mind raced and I thought what could I do
And I knew there was no help, no help from you

(01:33:27):
Sound of the drums beating in my heart
The thunder of guns tore me apart
You've been thunderstruck

(01:33:50):
Went down the highway, broke the limits, we hit the town
Went to the Texas, yeah Texas and we had some fun
We met some girls, some dancers who gave a good time
Broke all the rules, played all the fools, yeah yeah they, they, they blew our minds

(01:34:17):
I was shaking at the knees, could I come again please
Yeah the ladies weren't too kind
Thunderstruck
Thunderstruck
Thunderstruck

(01:34:49):
I was shaking at the knees, could I come again please
Hey, hey

(01:35:30):
Thunderstruck
Thunderstruck
Thunderstruck
Say yeah, it's alright
We're doing fine

(01:35:51):
Yeah, it's alright
We're doing fine, oh
Thunderstruck
Thunderstruck
Thunderstruck
Thunderstruck

(01:36:15):
guitar solo
What a hilarious rendition of that song, right?
That's crazy
If you watch this
And it's not Steven Seagal, what does it even mean?
It's Steve, Steve, apostrophe, N, apostrophe, Seagals, like at the beach

(01:36:37):
Steve and Seagals
We say it bad, Steven Seagal, that's so funny
We talked about Steven Seagal at a previous episode
Remember he was in a couple of movies, Steven Seagal?
Just a couple
What was that movie during the pandemic where he went to like the medicine man and got like the flower
Oh yeah, the Patriot, that's what it was

(01:37:00):
Yeah, the Patriot, I think it was that
Not to be confused with the Mel Gibson movie, different movie
Different movie, yeah, this one was very bad acting
Steven Seagal, overacting
Anyway, that was by a group called Steve in Seagals
It's crazy to hear that with banjo and spoons, oh my god

(01:37:21):
I'm telling you, if you watch the video, it looks like they're like in the middle of Kentucky or somewhere, somewhere just with overalls on and no shirt, like no shoes
And well, meanwhile, Sweet Curbs over here going, this is like techno thunderstruck
That's what it sounded like to me
It did kind of do, they were pretty fast
Pretty fast
That's a hell of a spoon player though
Put a couple of light sticks in your hand

(01:37:43):
Festival
Yeah, you were there
Alright, so speaking of newer musicians who are kind of sounding a lot like outlaw, I appreciate that
I really do, I like all these newer musicians going with the old style, old school style
It's kind of making a comeback
It is, it really is, there's this dude Billy Strings, sings a song called Dust in a Baggie

(01:38:08):
Dust in a Baggie, why am I terrified?
I know right, what do you think that means, Dust in a Baggie?
Drugs, dreams, I'm giving multiple options
This is a family show
I said multiple options, drugs, dreams
He's cremated someone and given him a baggie

(01:38:31):
I'm going to tell you, it is exactly what it sounds like

(01:39:01):
Dust in a Baggie
I used my only phone call to contact my daddy
Dust in a Baggie

(01:39:35):
Well if I would have listened to what mom and papa said
I wouldn't be like tough in prison, troubled in hell
I took that little poppin' sucked into my mind to spoil
But I got twenty years to sit and think of what I've done

(01:39:57):
It's not the same, it's got me
Well it's got me back in prison once again
Got twenty long years for some Dust in a Baggie

(01:40:36):
Sometimes I sit and wonder where my little life went wrong
These old jailhouse blues have got me singing this old song
My life is a disaster Lord and I feel so ashamed
In here where they call me by a new murder not a name

(01:41:00):
This life of sin has got me in
Well it's got me back in prison once again
Got twenty long years for some Dust in a Baggie

(01:41:26):
That song is going to make me want to drink some beer
or some whiskey and smoke some cigarettes
Or maybe both
I think you see a double fist in it over there
I'm double fisting it right here
Alright, well that was a fun song
Reminds me of a time I was out fishing
Not catching any damn thing at all
On the side of a creek

(01:41:48):
I was like at the Edisto River in South Carolina
I went to the grocery store, or not the grocery store
It was like a quick stop they call them out there in South Carolina
That's where you buy all your whiskey, your beer, your cigarettes and what not
I went to the counter
Guy's name was Ted, Teddy, good old Teddy
You still remember his name

(01:42:09):
I saw him every freaking day
Sometimes twice a day
He wasn't just Teddy, he was my friend
I'd get my cigarettes in the morning and my whiskey in the evening
So I went and got a bottle of whiskey
And then I had the day off
So I went to this little spot I used to go fishing
Right underneath a bridge
So anyway, I get out there one day, I was by myself

(01:42:31):
Went to go fishing, I got a bottle of whiskey
Pulled the bottle out and it's a plastic bottle
Of whiskey
Did your heart just break?
Yeah, it did, Jim Beam, right?
That's decent whiskey, you know
It doesn't suck
It's not Jack Daniels
I've been known to do a Beam here and there
I was a broke man, still am

(01:42:52):
Anyway, I was very upset about that
I wasn't catching anything
I actually had some receipts in my wallet
That I used to carry around for some reason
I don't know why
And then I had a little pen
And I wrote out some lyrics to this song
I called it Plastic Bottle Whiskey
...

(01:43:31):
Well, old boy C.F. is looking
Well, down on his old thing
And Jim Beam turning plastic
We can't drink it cause it ain't the same
But he was the king of country
But now I'm turning away
The old us songs live by

(01:43:53):
When whiskey bottles used to break
I was fishing on this creek bank
Just kicking back my day off
I pull out that little pistol
I shoot the bottle I toss up
It's just like a clear pigeon
A plastic bottle ain't enough

(01:44:16):
But shooting up a bottle of whiskey
Well the damn show makes it rough
...

(01:44:37):
When I got down to my liquor store
I asked the man I sent in
Can I get another bottle of whiskey
A glass bottle of whiskey instead
Jim Beam's turning plastic
The cost of shipping this day
A plastic bottle of whiskey

(01:44:59):
Oh, it's such a shame
...

(01:45:22):
Well I was sitting on my front porch
With just my doggy and me
I was sipping on a bottle of whiskey
A plastic bottle of Jim Beam
The moon was out and the stars were bright
The glare through that bottle didn't show any light

(01:45:44):
But now all the things have changed

(01:46:07):
...

(01:46:28):
Well, old boss, see just hope you're looking
What down on this whole thing
Jim Beam's turning plastic
We can't drink it cause it ain't the same
But now all the things have changed

(01:46:49):

(01:47:10):
...

(01:47:33):
Oh, it's just a shame

(01:47:56):
I just...
Ah!
Here we go.
Do you feel like losing?
You've kicked my ass every time.
To be a loser?
So I'm just gonna go ahead and get ready to lose.
But it's all good.
I love you, sweet curbs.
I'm gonna do everything I can to make you feel good.
I love you too, but...
We got the Travis.
You still lose every time.

(01:48:17):
He's actually assigned names to those...
Let me go ahead and get that button right there.
Yeah, he's assigned names to those sounds effects.
How do I gain access to that button?
Wait, what's the Kirby?
Let me check the Kirby button.
What's the Travis?
Okay, I'm ready.
Alright, I'm ready to kick score, guys.
Alright, you got it, Cassie.
Do I have to recap the rules?
It's probably a good idea.

(01:48:38):
No, we got it. So it's...
Alright, rules are...
Either name the song or the artist.
Eric's gonna play a song.
Song or artist, whoever calls in first gets priority.
They could name the song.
If they can't name the opposite within five seconds,
the other person can steal the other point.
The other point would be either the artist or the song.
Alright, I got the muffed mic.

(01:49:03):
While it is true, we had a whole conversation
about how we're not talking about your muff.
I know.
I got the muff.
We did. You have the only one.
I'm the only one here in the studio with a muff on my mic.
Why are we always talking about muffs?
Anyway, let's do this.
First song.
Alright, very first song.
Time person name that too.
Alright, here we go. You ready?

(01:49:24):
Hey, that about...
Something Road.
I know this song.
Copperhead Road?
No.
We're off to a really good start here, aren't we?

(01:49:44):
I know this song.
I can play it.
Do you?
Oh my goodness, do we have our first draw yet?
No, I know the songs.
Yeah, because if we get to the chorus, that's not fair.
You guys take your time whenever you're ready.
You get to the chorus and you still don't get to know
the artist at that point.

(01:50:05):
I think you found a stumper, hon.
It's one of those milt toast artists, as Theo would say.
Stacy.
Or Stacy.
Nope.
Alright, you guys are setting us up for a really bad
disappointment right out of the gate.
Alright, so to update on the score, we're at 0-0.
Alright, if you're out there listening to this...

(01:50:26):
I have no idea.
It was Guitar Town.
Guitar Town.
By...
Steve Earle.
Steve Earle, son of a...
Yeah.
That is Copperhead Road, though.
You said that.
Is that the same group? Copperhead Road?
Yeah, it is. Steve Earle.
Alright, we're going to turn this around.
We're going to turn this around.
What do I get for that? Do I get like...
You don't get...

(01:50:46):
Do I get a quarter of a point?
I think any Kirby gets a kiss because she told you.
I don't get a decimal.
Yes.
I don't get a decimal.
Point two.
Yeah, we didn't get very far with that one.
Alright, next.
Alright.
Merle Haggard.
Mama Trad.

(01:51:08):
And Travis is on the board.
Come on, outlaw stuff.
Alright.
None of this milk toast stuff.
I said Al Jackson first, though.
It doesn't matter.
I got it.
I said both.
Alright, Cassie, Judge.
I'll do one to one. That's fair.
Alright, sweet.

(01:51:29):
Alright, we're one to one.
The woman gets the tie.
So it's one to three is our overall.
We'll go with it.
So we got one to one?
Yeah, you got three, I have one.
You got the...
Elvira.
Elvira the Oak Ridge Boys.
He did, he did say, he said Elvira first.
But you got the name right,
so that we get one and one again.

(01:51:49):
Oh, my Lord.
That works.
Two to four, Travis in the lead.
Alright.
He said I...
George Jones.
George Jones, I Stop Loving Her Today.
Come on.
You only said George.
I said George Jones, but I was on my way to saying
he stopped loving her today.
You started with he stopped loving her today.
Oh, my goodness.
This is getting more difficult.

(01:52:09):
This is bullshit.
You all each get one.
Someone is definitely sleeping on the couch.
That's final, it's three to five, Travis.
You all each get one tonight.
No, that's okay.
On that one.
That's good.
Here we go.
Alright.
Alabama.
Working, what's the working man?
No, no, no.
Work hard, everybody.

(01:52:30):
One, two, three, four, five.
Hello America.
Thank you America.
Hello America.
Hello America.
Thank you America.
Thank you America.
Thank you America.
Thank you America.
Work hard, man.
Fuck.
Alright, next song.
It's a great song.
Hello.
40 hour week.
Oh, 40 hour week.
God dang it.

(01:52:50):
40 hour week.
I think we actually talked about this one.
No, I knew this.
Maybe it was episode one or two.
Alright, I got the Alabama.
He might get me on this one, babe.
Well, you know if he gets you.
That'll be the first one.
It's over.
He said if he wins, he's done.
The radio show is over.
He's done.
He's done.
The radio show is over.
Yeah, yeah, I'll walk out.

(01:53:10):
The radio show is not over.
The game is over.
We're going to cancel the whole show.
I'm going to play until I win.
Here we go.
Check yes or no George Trey.
Oh, come on.
Yep.
Five to six.
She's catching it.
All right, ready?

(01:53:40):
Small town Saturday night.
How's it going?
Ooh, she just took the lead.
There's seven, six.
Curvy.
Ooh, wee.
Next.
Let's see, let's go with the.

(01:54:01):
Dolly Parton, nine to five.
I said Dolly Parton.
No.
Fuck you.
I said it before you.
No, you didn't.
We said it at the same time.
Eric's editing.
He could decide.
I think she got it, buddy.
She got it?
Yeah, she yelled it out faster.
95, I know this is a pretty solid song.
Not 95.
Do you guys remember this movie?
95.
Yeah, it's certainly not 95.

(01:54:23):
95.
All right, Kirby's up.
Nine to six.
All right.
After midnight.
I go walking after midnight.
No, walking after midnight.
Pat's a dime.
Pat's a dime.
One and one.
It was the five second rule.
He called it first, and he had five seconds.
He said walking after midnight.
It's called I go walking.
Negative.

(01:54:44):
It is walking after midnight.
Is it?
Oh, my goodness.
You get minus.
You get minus.
I can see no.
Down.
I can see.
We have no minus rules in the game.
But we do now have a tie.
I trust her with the rules.
We do now have a tie.
Here we go.
Company sold my soul to the company store.

(01:55:07):
Some people say a man is made out of mud.
A poor man's made out of muscle and blood.
Sold my soul through the company store.
Muscle and blood and skin and bones.
I know it was fun.
