(01:27):
see what I did there. BecausePaul Skeins is pitching after the stone Bone

(01:52):
Marongo Casino Dodgers on deck. It'slike that tomorrow the next day and Friday
we have a one to three soearly shows. But you can still podcast
on the iHeartRadio app. And speakingof the podcast, yesterday was a great
Banner day, maybe the greatest GolfChargers event Matt and I have ever done.

(02:15):
The Chargers annual golf tournament for theircharity, the Impact Fund, was
a great success, as some say, and we had everybody we could want
to talk to, maybe not Herbertor Founce. His beard didn't come by,
but I thought out of time,well, Hank Bauer, I thought
made up for founces Beard as faras the old Charger kind of vibe,

(02:38):
and we had Jim Harbaugh. Wehad Mark Trestman, who a lot of
people thought Coke knows Kates left hismic open when we were talking to Trustman
because he was fighting off a sneeze. He was fought a sneeze. He
had a zup professional one of hisnosehairs or something. I mean, he
fought through like when Michael Jackson gotcaught up in the mic, Courton just

(03:00):
stepped over it like so easily,and no one, you know, just
so seamless. And that's how Trustmangot through that sneeze. Although there was
some koch No's allegations on the textosoand they were toward Kates as they should
be. Trustman's a professional, He'sa god fearing man. And he of
course was part of a two maninterview. We had two of those where

(03:20):
you just hand off the headset tothe next man up, and it was
Joe Rtiz General Artecher, who Iliked in person. I kind of understood
him a little better in person afterour first interview around the draft, which
is nut cutting time for the profootball type. So it was really nice
to see him in a different environment. We talked to both rookies that we
wanted to, Lad mcconki and JoeAlt. And it is interesting because you

(03:47):
know, working in football, playingfootball all those years, and I remember
when my brother signed with USC,they had two really big time offensive linemen
that were recruits. One of themwas Failing pounds from Pasadena High School and
he was six six three sixty.I mean he was huge. And Chris

(04:10):
Brimer was a guard from Apple Valley. God rest his soul, and he
was, you know, like six' five. And I just remember just
marveling and how big those guys were. And then you work in football and
you'd be like, wow, everybody'severybody's pretty bad. Damn big, you
know, I mean look at ourIf our offensive line wasn't big, we'd
be dead. You know, theseguys are all really big. And then

(04:31):
you work in football. You havea lifetime of going around and meeting people,
and there's those people. It's like, wow, you know, HOWI
Long is really big? You know, you TV whatever, but his hands,
his joints, you know, howwe Long is gigantic. Or we
get on the field at Dodger Stadium, it's like Wow, you know,
Shoe Aotani next to these guys,it doesn't even look real. It looks

(04:54):
like a drawing. Joe All islike that. I mean, he was
his size and his portion, it'sdifferent. One of the most impressive looking
offensive line Pete without pads on,right, I mean, And I've been
around John Ogden and and god,that's who I thought of he I was.
That was we hosted one of theartists I worked with, a DreamWorks

(05:15):
played the Baron Davis draft party thatJonathan Ogden was at when you know,
because they went to UCLA together.They were close friends, and I can
just remember standing next to them.This is this is the largest human being
I've ever been around in my life. And that's that's what that felt like.
And they are the It's just different. He was the equivalent of the

(05:38):
Lopez twins, right, just gigantic, profortionate people, not somebody with legs
up to their neck, right,just proportionately gigantic and does not want to
be penetrated by Southern California culture,like sitting over there like I do that,
Yeah, I do that, andAll just shaking his head like no,

(06:00):
no, fishing, We're eating whiterice. And fishing, not doing
anywhere until my girlfriend comes. Yes, Kate. By the way, I
did some more recon about the bigZach Bryant concert on Sunday nights that Dicker
the Kicker was out with Dickers aswell. Turns out Joe Alt was there
too, undercover. He was there. What Yeah, that's son of a

(06:21):
bitch. I liked last night whenI was thumbing through. Uh so she
made us think he was living inan austere, spartan lifestyle. Well that
was I guess that. It wasa very specific question about food, and
he said, I'm not you know, he could have been a day I
bought a fifty dollars torta at Ibought that three three orders of nugs,

(06:43):
two cheeseburgers, and a torta atthe Zach Bryan show. I shoved it
all down my face in about threeminutes, cause yeah, it was great
for dollars. Dicker was great,everybody was wonderful. Tank Bower come on.
It was a heck of a sheller. Of course was the was the
crown jewel And it's all there onthe iHeartRadio app for your smartphone. It

(07:06):
is something that you don't want tomiss because it was a lot of fun
to be out at the Chargers eventyesterday and you could just feel the anticipation
in the air of something big inthe works. Uh be that team enfranchise.
The stream of consciousness from Harbaugh isthe greatest thing ever. Just he
wants to talk. He keeps talking. It's just uh hey, yeah,

(07:28):
yeah, the winner. Uh Connormc McTavish. Where's he at? Let's
yeah, let's get him over here. Where's he at? Where's it?
He's a champion, he's a competitor. Competitors, welcome, Where's where's Connor?
Ad? Let's look at look atthis, Look at this, look
at this, Look at this tattoo. He's really something and that on the
call, he's telling the guys allthe time. Hey, Petro Pabnaccus is
going to be on a call.You better do something good out there because
he's gonna sell it. I afterwe were did a couple of their games

(07:53):
and we kind of got excited aboutwhat Stanford football was doing, you know,
running the ball but not playing defensebecause they didn't have the guys,
but they're running the hell out ofthe ball. I gave him a bracelet
an evil eye bracelet and told himit was good luck. And I swear
to god, I saw it onhis wrist until it broke off like like
went all the way for till theNiners. So it was really nice to
reconnect with the coach and see what'shappening there. I think great things are

(08:16):
in store for the Voice of theBolts and the Chargers. There's no doubt
Charger it made the right higher goodfor those Greeks. It took him about,
you know, fifty years to getaround to it, but damn way
to go. And now, Matt, we do have our big announcement.
It's time. It is time.We're on a stream. This is the

our theme, our famous cash inyour hand, a famous to cure the
bag at the end of the tour. We do have one grand prize,
Matt, and it's because of inflation. We kicked it up a notch from
last year. Last year ten grandthis year eleven grand pre Why because it's

(09:52):
our eleventh fear doing it, soeleven thousand dollars plus inflation. We got
sick finalists from six stops plus fivefrom online, so a one in eleven
chance to win eleven one thousand dollars. And of course your odds increase dramatically

(10:13):
if you show up at one ofthe live events, because you could be
the finalists selected from you know afew hundred people as opposed to thousands and
thousands that are registering online. AndI'm sure that we'll find a creative way
to give it away in our finalstop, no doubt about it. We
do have some great sponsors and onsite prizes. It's not just the eleven

Mark has a sweet catchy jingle oneeight ond Loanemard. So we cannot believe

(13:16):
that we're headed out to Rock andBruce so soon a week, Thank you,
Adam, we will be there.A big thank you to Adam and
Katie and Jenna at Rock and Bruce. Our relationship has grown over the years.
They are fans of the show andwe are fans of them, and
we might even end up at Mayberrytwenty twenty four before this whole thing is

(13:39):
over. Jenna has participated in ouron air shenanigans with a variety of succulent
signature dishes to distribute to all ofour many listeners, so we certainly appreciate
Kate It, Katie, Jenna andAdam. Their Rock and Bruce locations are
great venues for our summer tours becauseof their open air atmosphere and relatively few

(14:03):
walls inside their steel and glass incase restaurant. It's the floor plan that
really works for us. The firststop of the twenty twenty four Petrosen Money
Summer Tour is Friday, June fourteenth, at Rock and Bruise in Buena Park
seven seven seven Beach Boulevard in BuenaPark, right off the ninety one,
right in the shadow of knotts BerryFarm. And that is what the most

(14:24):
important thing for me. Kates,Have we heard anything your knotts Berry Farm?
Have you brought it up on acall with David Howard or Dave Wi,
Sir Don Martin, O'Brian Blackmore,or any of these big wigs that
we work for talk to or arein charge of this kind of thing.
Have we heard from the people atKnots. We have reached out to them.

(14:46):
I believe the communication has started betweenthe two sides and hopefully that communication
grows. Have they returned like ourrelationship with Adam and Jenna, have they
returned the well? I don't thinkanything's going to get it to that really
this quick, because that's a greatrelationship. We love Katie, we do.
We've We've been promoting Knots for freefor twenty years. Kate's I mean,

(15:09):
so we walk across three lane.You know one thing that the Petros
and Money shows very good at itis applying pressure to our sales team.
Oh yeah, to making them incrediblyuncomfortable, and to be honest, a
little well, I don't know ifreticence is the right word, a little

(15:30):
hesitant to engage with us if they'renot doing what we ask them, that
they're scared pre COVID, we hadthem all running scared. Now they're not
here. Do we know who thepoint person is for for knots, for
us to apply some of the petrosand money show pressure upon in order to
make sure our requests are in factmet. I have an idea what we

(15:52):
got. It's a great question.We can flush or smoke that person out
by kidnapping Valentine and holding him hostage. Yes, great call, because he
is a mormationship he is, Butwe can we can embrace him. I
read all the James L. Roybooks, and he's soft man. He's
been doing alt radio for years.I just didn't know if he had the
connections with like swat. You know, he's snatched, he's got like a

(16:14):
little button. You know, wegot some trouble, hey, lad Man
would be unfortunate. Uh, butwe could kidnap him and flush out knots
and send like you know, afinger or a toe. I'm coos at
this point I'm desperate to have notsinvolved, you know. I mean,

(16:36):
I've talked about it. We weusurped the announcement for it, and I
want to know that they at leasthave acknowledged our assistance. From what I
understand, they have acknowledged. Idon't know who the point person is.
From iHeart, We'll send over theMormon lady that runs Soak City. Okay,
Okay, took me a second,but I got it. Yes,

(17:00):
I do have it on good authoritybecause I just ran over to look.
There will be fifty inch westing HouseTVs at every single tour stop to give
away. And we had the eleventhousand dollars grand prize for one of eleven
finalists. Scary said that, Iknow, but the other ten people aren't
going to go home empty handed.Oh okay, here we go. I
jumped you. I'm sorry, Kate, I'm a bad guy. They're going

(17:21):
to get something, and one ofthose things is a sixty five inch Westinghouse
HD TV. So you may notwin eleven grand but if we were one
of the eleven finalists, you're notgoing to go home empty handed. And
I'll tell you one of the greathighlights of the Petrosen Money Show was we
had this same situation. I don'tknow if it was last year, period
of the year before, but youwould pull the prizes and it was you

(17:44):
know, oh I won the TVI and then you know, somebody would
pull the cash prize and we endedup right in front of us in the
moment have someone say, hey,I can't go on this trip. We
had a travel trip, a freetravel trip somewhere one of them and they
and the person who had the DodgerSweet said well, I would love to
go on the travel trip if youwould like the Dodger sweet and they made

(18:07):
that exchange right then and there bothwent home incredibly happy forging a relationship that
still carries on today. Trading withthe Sioux, you know, like you
know, living on the frontier,you know, using other artisans and I
sell blankets, you know, Ichop would let's make a deal. I
got a big boots. I willservice you. Oh well, sometimes there

(18:30):
we go. It's the oldest profession, right or maybe I just really know
what to do with it. Okay, there you go. Yeah, now,
Matt maybe and Kate's is a honorarypolice officer. Maybe kidnapping and torturing
Valentine is a little bit of apipe dream. You have to do what
you gotta do it. Well,how about this, how about we threaten

(18:53):
Knots with medieval times, which isalso in Buena Parte. Oh, you
want to leverage Knots And if youdon't send us a cowboy, we're gonna
get a guy in armor and he'sgonna ride a horse through this place.
I would imagine NASA's response would be, take it what you can have it.
Well, we will not about medievaltimes. Some are cheap lest medieval

(19:19):
times, but we went He claimedhe had a brother that was on Depth's
door. Well that was that wasfor the uh radio radiothon. Was Pat
didn't go to the radiothon because hesaid his brother was dying. We didn't
know. Somebody asked for a picturefor proof too, And Pat didn't go
to Medieval Times because he had ameeting with his editor. That was that.

(19:41):
Hawaii was the one where he justflat out said, cheap people.
I'm not going on a cheap tripon a cheap flight, staying at a
cheap hotel, a bunch of cheappeople. So you think we could leverage
knots with Soak City. Well,I guess the Medieval Times is our best
option right at the Wax Museum.Well, there's the Pirate Adventure, which

(20:03):
is also right across the street.I don't know if the Pirate Adventure has
as usurped. Medieval Times is yourfavorite dinner plus show spot in Buena Park
on Beach Boulevard. Do you knowthat in the sixties they opened up another
theme park in Buena Park that wasa Japanese village and deer farm where deer
roamed free and there was like coyponds and stuff like that. Sad it

(20:29):
closed in seven years and they startedeuthanizing the deer. Oh like, they
killed two hundred of them and gotin big trouble. They could have just
choppered around and shot him if theywanted to do something cool like Catalina Island,
take them out to Catalina so wecan get We can't get the deer
farm people. They've been defunct sincethe seventies. But I'm just saying nots.

(20:52):
You're not the only show in town. There's Soak City, there's Medieval
Times, and there's Ripley too.I think you're I think the the position
is sound, but I think yourgut instinct on the first go around is
going to be more effective kidnapping Valentine, cutting off a finger, sending it
so they know we're serious and demandingan answer immediately. Can you believe?

(21:17):
Like? Can you believe what hewould say? Like? I can't believe
you guys are doing this just toget well knowing Valentine, I think it'd
be worse if you parked in thisparking spot downstairs. No listen be raised.
Then you shouldn't be surprised, Valentine. This is how the Petros some
money show operates. The first timewe've kidnapped somebody and lopped off a digit

(21:41):
to get what we want. Youjust happen to be standing in our way
this time around. Do you thinkwe rebooked a slide bar now defunct?
Are we giving away TVs to theblind this year because it's not a Petros
or excuse me, we're not givingaway a truck No. Eleven Grande and
other grand prizes and other grand prizesas of right now, we know Westinghouse

(22:03):
TVs will be part of those prizes. There'll be a DJ at the first
one. So you guys need tolet me know what kind of music you
want. So the DJ is aDJ. That is what we're doing right
now with DJing for the first one. Yep, spin a little music during
the breaks. Mm hmm. Couldbe fine. It's not. That's not
good enough. I mean, wegot a stage there, Kates. It's
gonna be indoors, guys, becausethe possibility of weather, so it's gonna

(22:26):
be indoors. June gloom, Junegloom. So that's right, gonna be
indoors, just like when McK croninwas there with the glass in the background
and I you, uh, medievaltimes. That's right, Okay, it
would be pretty sweet if we couldstop traffic and have that you know that
that night adorned in velvet mounted onhis horse. Just make a quick truk

(22:52):
across the street. Oh yeah,right, doing the horse things like like
a django unchained right with the sweetmoments. Maybe he's got a sword,
maybe he's got a jousting poll mace. I mean across eight lanes or ten
lanes, whatever it is at thatspot of Beach Boulevard, you know,
be sweet. If he shot amessage onto the wall with a crossbow over

(23:15):
to the rock and Bruise like,Hey, I'm ready, med Evil Times
is here? Come us done,bitches. I'm just saying, can we
reach out to make it special?Absolutely? Maybe you get a Japanese guy
to tell us what happened to thosedear dad. I can try, yeah,
absolutely, we gotta make this cool. Kates like the DJ playlist,

(23:36):
I can do that, Yeah,but I could work on that if you
want. I mean, I'll takecare of the Playlistn't worry. I know
you won't. Red Solo Cup,that's a great idea. Let's see what
Kate's curates. Let's see what Kate'scurates for our listeners, and they can
either cheer or be rate him basedon his selections. Pressures on Kate's It's
time to deliver. I went down. Y'all are on the chat of Hoots.

(23:57):
You never did water Man to Okay, So we're looking forward to the
Buena Park. It's gonna be greatweek from Friday. Whether you're excited about
it or not, you're still expectedto be there as a Petros and Money
Show listener. We take attendance andwe'll be right back with reaction. React.

(24:21):
People have a couple of good ideashere, Matt, I hope they're
implemented. That podcast is for me, that one with the two journalists.
I wouldn't paying attention. Oh,Matt, you gotta get a piece of
that podcast, Robert or is whatI want a piece of? Hell?

(24:42):
Join it from the top of thehour, Sun going to UCLA won three
titles with the Lakers Championship analysis overthere on Spectrum and he will check in
to talk all things Lakers and everythingbasketball at the top of the hour.
As long as I could check thatrisky business podcast later, Matt, again,

(25:03):
I was not. I mean,you know, can I tell you
exactly what's going on with me realquick? Exactly? I have there's you
can enter a virtual line for theDMV. My license is expiring, and
because we have early shows this week, I was like, you know what,
let's see if I can knock thisout today. You're sitting there,
Yeah, I'm gonna sit here infront of the computer. I'm gonna get
it done. I was in uhspot, like thirty eight around noon and

(25:29):
I'm trying to time this up.Someone to get off the air. I
can get there exactly on time,and somehow I have now rocketed all the
way up to eleven, Oh no, And I'm like, oh no,
you're talking to be for an hourand a half and you're gonna get You're
gonna get passed over right like theslow down. It was out a crawl,

(25:52):
like a crawl at the start ofthe show, and now we've just
flown through like seven or eight peoplein the last five minutes. I'm like,
no, what the hell? Well, Matt, we had good timing
yesterday getting everybody on at the Chargersgolf tournament, so maybe God will smile
on you again today. But I'lltell you a guy making risks like that
might enjoy a podcast called a RiskyBusiness. Risky Business, all right,

(26:17):
Matt, I line brought to youby your so call Toyota Dealers. We
make it easy. We've started theprocess of brainstorming on what to do for
our big, gigantic debut of thetwenty twenty four petrosen Mondy Summer Tour a
week from Friday, Rock and BruiseBuena Park. How do we make it
cool? What do we do?Help us out? This is what we

(26:38):
do. So here's some textosos.This says my son works at Knots.
He wears a foot locker uniform inthe game section that's right under the accelerator.
I think I can ask him tounlock a back gate for a pirate
radio show. Yeah, but thatwe're paid to be a boy. Yeah.
We love Adam, we love Katie, we love Jenna. We're love

(26:59):
doing it. Come to us.Yeah, we want him to abandon his
post at the throw the ping pongball and the floating glass dish to win
this stuffed animal, to come hangout with us, or you know,
maybe change Just come and what ifhe gets fired for illegally representing numbs?
That would be unfortunate. Get acowboy from Knots a night from medieval times

(27:21):
and a pirate from the pirate placeand have them fight. That's a great
call. It's a great call.But that's going to cost a lot more
than the eleven thousand we have.Why don't know? We have these guys
fight to the death. Did whatdid Jim Harbaugh say to us yesterday?
Competitors welcome? Hey, you guyswant to compete or no, just sit
there and cash a paycheck, oryou want to compete and prove you're the
best. I guess you guys don'twant to compete, invite the pirate guys

(27:45):
to the remote. They could setup tables and sell fancy pirate jewelry and
close to the listeners. Let's throwa knives, swords and guns and keep
the swashbuckling theme going to the listenersor to petros Well, I mean any,
I mean it's more. It's morefeasible that I can have a knife
and a sword because I'm hosting theshow. But I think if a bunch

(28:08):
of listeners start bringing weapons, we'rein trouble. It could end badly.
Yes, Kates, I did bringup the idea to Dave Weeze about an
airbrush artist to be on site.Maybe that's what I want shirts, airbrushing
T shirts. Yeah, best ideaever, great idea, nothing nots themed.
Yes, right, I embrace that. I embrace that idea. I'll

(28:33):
buy the T shirts if I haveto, for God's sakes. What if
we use some of the ones youjust bring to give away to listeners?
You just airbrush new stuff on there. We could try that too if we
run out of white shirts. Butif they can't buy us a couple hundred
white T shirts, I can't dothis anymore. There better be a karaoke
machine Kates, Well, there is, but it's an iPad with a foot

(28:55):
and a half long cable and oneof the mini mics that you sing into.
Let me throw us out there.Let me throw this out there.
We don't have the dongle to connect, so we can't do it. Guys,
we have the Kawhi Leonard holding thelittle mini mic. Let me let
me throw this out there. RonnieFossio has a karaoke machine. You think
we can get him to donate itto after in a million years? Never?

(29:18):
No chance. Do you think somebodyelse will donate? One chance?
He lets you put your I meanrubbie, dirty filthy hands, and he'd
call mine the same, hun mykekaraoke machine. I am the only one
that knows how to operate it.We work at the biggest radio cluster for
the biggest radio company in the world. I mean, a couple hundred white
T shirts, an airbrush guy,and a karaoke machine. Should that be

(29:42):
too much to ask? Well,I mean, how about Booker and Striker
already have T shirts. They've beenon the air for like five minutes.
We love them, but we've beenhere for twenty years. I don't even

a birthday. A beloved blues womanof last century would have been one hundred
and twenty seven years old today.Born Lizzie Douglas performed as Kid Douglas and

(33:22):
then Memphis Mini. And like Ronnie, she grew up in the South a
lot in the Algiers neighborhood of NewOrleans. That's the other side of the
ten mat not a lot familiar withit, not a lot of whites.
No, I'm familiar with it.Also Mississippi and Tennessee. She learned a

(33:43):
banjo and guitar and was quite proficient. In nineteen ten, she ran away
from home at thirteen to Beale Streetto perform on street corners. She got
popular. Ringland Brothers picked her upfor a four year or two of the
South. Yeah it's a big circusnineteen sixteen nineteen twenty toured the area.

(34:04):
She thrived on the Blue Scene andBeale Street in Memphis. She did turned
the occasional trick, turned to theoccasional sex work when business was down,
which was not uncommon in those No, it's a different times. Don't you
look down at her. It's right, man. It was not uncommon for
a female performer to turn to sexwork in those days. It's not uncommon

(34:25):
for a female performer to turned tosex work. These days, we just
don't talk about it the same.But yes, most of the movie stars
we loved in black and White,for Bait Girls, for divorce, shakedouts
like Mini Here. She recorded inNew York for Columbia and Decca Records with

(34:45):
Kansas Joe McCoy, her second husband. She recorded in Chicago with her third
husband, son Joel. She recordedwith her first husband somewhere in there too.
She was known as a tobacco chewingaddict, much like Kate's with his
seeds, and that new bucket ofsmacking is gonna kill God boxes the size

(35:06):
of their freaking bullpen room. Likeyou said, man, it's like looking
back on Sodom and Gamar turn intoa pillar of song, will be a
pillar by tomorrow afternoon. Apparently,Memphis Minnie would hit you with anything available
if there was trouble, like aknife or a guitar or a pistol.
It was also said she always hada spit cup and that she didn't take
no foolishness. Look good for her. It's a street fight. It's not

(35:31):
a sanctioned freaking boxing match. No, well, we're not going by the
queen. Yeah, the WBC rulesdo not apply here. I'm gonna bust
you over the head with his glassmug. Sorry. Jefferson Airplane covered her.
Massie Starr and led Zeppelin. Whenthe Levy Breaks is a Memphis mini

(35:51):
song. Bonnie Ray Yeah. BonnieRait donated the headstone for her grave so
there you go, Memphis Mini celebratingbirthday this week. Well you're a love
guy this week. Happy seventy fourthto Denise Williams, d E and I
Ce Denise, Denise, I'm soin love with you. Famous for her,

(36:12):
let's hear it for the boy,most likely with most of our listeners.
But that was well after she wasbusting her ass making a name for
herself, which included resuscitating the careerof Johnny Mathis with their duets, I
won't have it, well you will. I'm not going to sit there and
and and entertain the image of JohnnyMathis laying and laboring and breathing that he

(36:38):
was on the outs. Olympic levelathlete and high jumper, Mathis was on
the outs. Never Williams comes along, they do their duets record and Yes
this was a hit, a numberone song before Family Ties used it as
their theme song. A heck ofa career leading up to all that success
and a long road. Born inGary, went to college Morgan State,

(37:01):
Baltimore, was going to be anurse, dropped out, came back to
Chicago, worked as a clerk atthe Mercy Hospital. By day part time
jobs singing, at Club Royale.By Night went by. Denise Chandler did
well enough in that gig that alocal label, Lock Records, recorded a
single went to number one on theUnited Kingdom Soul Chart. Yet that somehow

(37:23):
got noticed from Stevie Wonder, whohired her to be his primary studio background
vocalist. So Denise was all overtalking book Fulfilling, This is First Finale
and Songs in the Key of Life, three of the greatest records ever recorded.

(37:44):
She would to Suck Sun a dealwith Columbia, but out of solo
record that went top five on theR and B charts. Follow up Songbird
critically acclaimed. But it were theseduets. It was the duets with Mathis
this too much? Too little,too late? Both number ones really put
her on the map and kept puttingout solo records. They would chart Dance

(38:06):
Soul, R and B, TheMonster Footloose. Let's hear it for the
boy? Was that the one wherehe was dancing with his car by his
car, and then he gets sofar away from his car, but he
can still hear the tape deck,I think, So let's hear it from
my man, Let's hear it frommy hey Day nominated for Grammys in R
and B, pop and gospel throughouther career, thirteen of them she won

(38:27):
four. She Does Jazz put outa record a few years ago June of
twenty twenty one, and ducked itinto the Songwriters Hall of Fame. Was
given the key to the city ofKingston, Jamaica. Wow. Her voice
is regarded as one of the greatestever four octave range, A critic wrote,

(38:50):
Williams says the kind of range thewould make Mariah Carey quiver oo so
happy seventy fourth to Denise Williams,Johnny Mathis doesn't need anybody saved his career.
What have it put him back onthe map. Do you know Johnny
Mathis's brother was in a dou wopband with Barry Tompkins. That seems appropriate.

(39:14):
And they had a top ten hit, a top ten, maybe top
twenty. They were called the Amberson the do wop charts. I think
it was like on the pop charts. That's pretty impressive right there. We
had the record at Barry's house thatwould play it all right, we will
be back. We still have RobertRory, we still have the Final Hour.
