Speaker 3 (03:34):
Did you know?
Speaker 5 (03:35):
As it was part of the World's Fair, the Eiffel
Tower was meant to be brought down after twenty years. However,
it survived because the military began using it as a
radio tower to intercept crucial military transmissions during World War One,
so it's stuck around. Otherwise, you know, all of us
(03:57):
wouldn't have that cool photo of us in our sweetheart
making out underneath it, with it stacked right behind you
and with all the lights flashing. You know, none of that,
No and thanks to the World War One thing.
Speaker 3 (04:10):
Well, let me tell you this, I did know that.
Speaker 5 (04:14):
Okay, okay, well maybe you can get to know the
final fun fetch script.
Speaker 6 (04:20):
It was fine. You just felt like you you know,
it's better when we wing it. That's a Van Eeril
top mew years ago on Fox Sports West.
Speaker 5 (04:28):
What would he deliver that with in his right hand?
Speaker 6 (04:30):
It's better when we waited, you did not. It's time
for quick hits. Everybody look to.
Speaker 2 (04:38):
Ms quick hitch, come make it quick, y'all.
Speaker 3 (04:45):
Yeah.
Speaker 6 (04:46):
Chargers head coach Jim Harbaugh met the media today and
included our own Matt Muddy Smith, who was in the house,
and Matt asked Jim about his next offensive coordinator. Sounds
like Jim didn't really answer the question, but then he
circled back.
Speaker 7 (05:04):
I'd like to give you a better answer on your
original uh question, Uh and I And the way I
answered it was pretty pretty vague and nebulous. Uh and
I don't. The reason I did that money was because
we're open. We are open to we are not putting
ourselves into it has to be one system or one
(05:28):
specific type of type of offensive system.
Speaker 5 (05:32):
Uh.
Speaker 7 (05:32):
Widen that being cast and you know that that person
that the persons that we interview, Uh, we're gonna look
for the best one that's that's uh you know, has
a track record, has uh has proven success and can
(05:53):
uh show us his vision uh for what our offenses
is going to look like and and and be like.
But we're open to to multiple a lot of ways
to skin a cat, you know, and and in offense
and in and in football. So, uh yeah, we're gonna
we're we try to get the get get the very
(06:15):
best one and that person. Uh, we're gonna bet it out.
Speaker 8 (06:19):
Get a little work detail that's to go way back.
Speaker 5 (06:23):
Coach the radio show Money repor a job, you told us.
Speaker 8 (06:28):
A story that it's always stuck with. You said, you
talked to bout sham Becker and he said, how are
you gonna play with a tight end at the end
of the offense flanks? And yes, you play with full back.
Yes you're gonna run God's playing power. He said yes,
And then he said you can be a coach. So
I guess I'm asking does that philosophy.
Speaker 4 (06:44):
Still hold for you.
Speaker 7 (06:45):
We're open to We're open to all all philosophers. A
lot of ways to skin a cat.
Speaker 6 (06:51):
Oh, it doesn't sound mad. It doesn't sound like they
want to run God's play anymore. Right, sounds like they're
gonna run the run and shoot. They're kind of convert
to the bagavad Gita they run.
Speaker 5 (07:01):
I heard Lavelle Edwards it's coming in.
Speaker 3 (07:03):
Oh, that'd be great. It's either him or Fish or
to Bury.
Speaker 6 (07:06):
I hear the interview with the same day, the Rams
are getting ready for the Divisional round matchup against the
Bears on Sunday at Soldier Field in Chicago. I got
a weather update, p They're at a three and a
half point favorite, even though they're on the road, and
even though the weather is.
Speaker 5 (07:21):
What I got a weather update. Here we go. Kickoff
is going to be at I believe seven pm Chicago time.
It will be eleven degrees. Feels like zero to two
is what we're looking at for Sunday night. All right, Chicago.
Speaker 6 (07:43):
That's good for a dome team that plays in southern California.
Speaker 5 (07:46):
Can I get a weather update, man.
Speaker 3 (07:48):
When we're in the Dome.
Speaker 5 (07:50):
It's nice outside here in Chicago in January, it's zero.
Speaker 6 (07:57):
John Harbaugh's headed in New York. He'll basically do most
of his business in New Jersey. They were quick to
bring him in for an interview and not let him leave.
So John Harbaugh was out of a job for like
twenty five hours.
Speaker 5 (08:14):
Yeah, that was the number one job of the nine
that were out there, Uh, the one that everybody wanted.
John Harball was the most qualified candidate, and his offensive coordinator,
Todd Monkin, who you know very well from his college days,
was reportedly a top candidate for a number of offensive
coordinator positions, and Harball wanted to get this thing done
(08:37):
real quick so he could bring Monkin with him to
run the offense with Jackson Dart, Cam Scataboo and Malik Nighbors.
Speaker 6 (08:47):
The Lakers are twenty four and fourteen. They're at home
tonight versus the Hernets.
Speaker 5 (08:51):
I think they could win it.
Speaker 6 (08:52):
Talk to Don McClain about it. The Lakers have lost
three of the last four. They're playing five hundred basketball
in the last ten games.
Speaker 3 (09:00):
The Clippers are set up.
Speaker 5 (09:02):
What He's not happy because he thinks they can win it.
It's not like he does not like your five hundred
basketball the last ten games. I didn't write it. I
know that's what he wants.
Speaker 6 (09:15):
They're not gonna win it. The Clippers are seventeen to
twenty three. They are red hot. They cold have won
four in a row. Yeah, your ice cold like a sack.
Eleven of the last thirteen Clipper games cold have been
won by the Clippers circulation problem. The Clippers hit the
road in Toronto tomorrow right here on ampire seventy LA Sports.
(09:37):
They're only one game out of the playing tournament in
the West. Head coach Tyloo after the game last night,
feel a lot better about himself and his big fat neck.
Speaker 9 (09:47):
I think the biggest thing for us is, you know,
to get healthy. That's number one. You know, that's huge
for us, you know, and then just keep trusting. I
think the biggest thing is just trust.
Speaker 3 (09:59):
You know.
Speaker 9 (10:00):
Offensively, you know, teams are going to double team Kawae
on double team James, making sure our spacing is right,
getting to the right spots and they're making the right places,
and just trusting it. That's gonna be our biggest thing. Defensively,
you know, we've gotten a lot better. You know what
we want to do. What our foundation is every single night,
and I told our guys like we shouldn't have to
have shoot arounds. We should come in every night noring
(10:20):
what we're doing defensively, knowing what we're doing offensively, how
we want to attack. So we got to get to
that point where we were good enough to do that.
Speaker 3 (10:27):
But you just gotta keep.
Speaker 9 (10:28):
Building defensively and then offensively, Like I said, James and
Kawhi a special enough offensively that we can you know,
we can get through, but it's gonna be our defensive
pulls us through.
Speaker 5 (10:38):
You die, you were done hearing when you say fat nack.
I just want to make sure I've got to because
you know, I think fat neck, and maybe I think
like a you know, a real thick neck bad ass,
you know that can kind of put his head in
somebody's chest.
Speaker 3 (10:50):
And knock them on the rock lessener.
Speaker 5 (10:52):
Yeah, Like, but that's I don't get the sense that
that's what you're intimating when it comes to coach tylu
at All, I.
Speaker 6 (10:59):
Figure, you know, bowl your neck and play that Nebraska
point guard.
Speaker 5 (11:03):
Yeah, is that that's what you're That's what you're disgusting
in your description of a fat neck.
Speaker 3 (11:08):
Yeah.
Speaker 6 (11:09):
You know, here's a guy you used to like to
call fat all the time, playing girt job. He's gonna
play looking at Dad, Bud Pete. Look at it.
Speaker 3 (11:20):
Tm tvus A.
Speaker 6 (11:22):
He's gonna have Clayton Kershaw on it for the World
Baseball Classic. We talked to about it. The future Hall
of Famer was on the Oh what do you know?
He was on the MLB Network today with Matt vas
Kersh and our friend and brother Hal to discuss it.
Here's part of that convo.
Speaker 10 (11:39):
Oh, I'm so excited. It's gonna be so fun. Yeah,
thanks for having me, guys. I think just when Diro
approached me about being a part of this team, and
I wanted to do it a few years ago, but
I was too broken for the insurance to cover my uh,
to cover my arm and everything. So now that it
doesn't matter and I get to go and be a
part of this group, like you said, is uh just
the most unbelievable group of teammates and guys. And so
(12:01):
I'm I'm just really excited.
Speaker 11 (12:02):
Me.
Speaker 4 (12:03):
It's gonna be so fun.
Speaker 12 (12:04):
No, that's that's really cool, Clayton. And you're right, I mean,
you're retired. That's the first thing that came to mind
for me is you can throw as much as you
want to throw.
Speaker 2 (12:12):
So that's pretty cool. Well, that's what I.
Speaker 10 (12:14):
Told Diro I said, I just want to be the
insurance policy, you know, if anybody needs a breather, or
if they need me to pitch back to back to back,
or if they don't need me to pitch at all. Like,
I'm just there to to be there. I just want
to be part of this group. And you know, I
learned a long time ago you just want to be
a part of great things. And this team seems like
a really fun, awesome group. And all these coaches I
(12:36):
played with, their good teammates, good friends of mine.
Speaker 4 (12:38):
So it'll be it'll be really fun.
Speaker 5 (12:40):
That's that's really cool.
Speaker 12 (12:41):
When did it cross your mind when you finished and
you were retired and you got back home and all
of a sudden, there's a WBC coming, When did it
cross your mind, Hey, maybe you know I might.
Speaker 2 (12:50):
Be able to do this.
Speaker 10 (12:52):
Well, Deiro called me and said and I missed his
call and said call me back to the WBC.
Speaker 4 (12:57):
And I thought you wanted to be the.
Speaker 10 (13:00):
Coach, and so I was like, oh, yeah, I'd love
to love to go coach or just help out or
do whatever.
Speaker 4 (13:04):
And then then he mentioned playing again.
Speaker 10 (13:07):
And I'm gonna be honest, I didn't have a whole
lot of interest in picking up a baseball again. But
I started throwing, you know, ten twelve days ago, and
it doesn't feel terrible.
Speaker 4 (13:16):
So I think, I think I'll be okay. I think
I'll be okay.
Speaker 13 (13:18):
You know, as happy as you are to be doing this,
I'm sure that group of pitchers that we just put
up is absolutely thrilled to have you not only on
the staff but as a resource to tap.
Speaker 4 (13:27):
Into your brain a little bit.
Speaker 2 (13:29):
What a squad this is.
Speaker 13 (13:30):
And as I start thinking about potential matchups, Clayton, and
I'm sure this has crossed your mind too, thinking of
you facing Showhy.
Speaker 2 (13:40):
It's something that we can dream about. Is that out
of the question.
Speaker 10 (13:45):
I think something will have gone terribly wrong if I
have to pitch against Team Japan in the finals or something.
I think we got a plenty of guys to get
that guy.
Speaker 4 (13:51):
Out and not me.
Speaker 10 (13:52):
But if that happens, I'll be nervous. I'll be nervous
at this point.
Speaker 5 (13:59):
Oh, that's fantasic. How in what world can you not
be excited about the World Baseball Classic When you hear
Clayton Kershaw that enthusiastic about putting on the red, white,
and blue old glory on that hat.
Speaker 3 (14:11):
Come on, you kidding me?
Speaker 5 (14:13):
You get a Japan Team USA showdown in the final.
Speaker 3 (14:17):
Huh.
Speaker 5 (14:17):
We're gonna have generations of people invested in this thing.
Speaker 6 (14:20):

Speaker 6 (15:31):
Matt joining us right now and you're Southern California. Toyota
Dealers celebrity hotline.
Speaker 3 (15:36):
A real hero.
Speaker 6 (15:37):
Nine seasons with the Chargers, three with the Ravens. Finished
his fourteen year career. Remember he came on before and
after the Rams won the Super Bowl. Six time Pro Bowler,
five time All Pro. I did a Utah game where
they were still in the Mountain West and Eric Weddle
was a corner, he was a safety, he was a
(15:58):
running back, quarterback, he was a slot receiver and he punted.
Speaker 3 (16:03):
He is cool.
Speaker 6 (16:04):
One of the all time greats. Just announced yesterday College
Football Hall of Fame. He deserves it. Head coach, his
son is there and it's already getting offers at Rancho
Bernardo High School. He's riding Billy Bronco and we're happy
to have him back.
Speaker 3 (16:19):
On the show. A hero to us all.
Speaker 6 (16:22):
As I said Eric Weddell, Eric, congratulations on the Hall
of Fame.
Speaker 11 (16:27):
That's awesome, my man, Thanks for having me on. It's
always a joy to rap a little bit with you
guys and talk shop and shoot. Hall of Famer next
to my name is pretty surreal. Humbled by it. And yeah, man,
live in the HIGHLFE right now.
Speaker 6 (16:48):
You know, it's cool because you're with young people and
mentoring young people, which is a great thing to do
and a lot of work, no doubt about it.
Speaker 3 (16:57):
Down in Rancho Bernardo.
Speaker 6 (16:59):
And football's changed a lot from when Utah was in
the Mountain West. What what jumps out to you the
most when you think of those days at Utah where
you know, you were like a college player, but you weren't.
You were you were doing it like Pop Warner. You
didn't come off the field.
Speaker 3 (17:17):
Yeah.
Speaker 11 (17:18):
Well, I mean back in the day, Utah didn't have
as many good players across the board, you could say,
and so they had to.
Speaker 3 (17:27):
Move guys around.
Speaker 11 (17:28):
And the more valuable you you become. And so it
was a great reminder that when you get in the league,
you got to play special teams, You got to play
corner Nickels safety. So I got prepped pretty well at
Utah and uh coincided with a with a great NFL career.
Speaker 5 (17:48):
What do you make I know it's probably not what
we should start with, but you know, what do you
make of coach Whittingham going to Michigan one of the
blue bloods, a heck of a job at Utah. Kind
of your thoughts on on that move? Yeah, it was Uh.
Speaker 11 (18:00):
Shoot, you know, if a guy, you know, I love
coach with he knows that I'm I'm still keeping in
touch with him, and he knows I'd go out there
in a heartbeat to speak to his team if he
wanted it. So, uh, if a guy still wants to coach,
and you know, like he said in his press conference
that there are only maybe three to five schools that
(18:22):
he would entertain, and Michigan being one of them. And
when Michigan calls and you still have a desire to
go coach and turn around a program that's kind of
in shambles with what's been going on the last few years.
That I tell people, Michigan is lucky to get a
guy like him to get everything back in order. And
I kid, you know that staff he put together and
(18:44):
the kids are gonna that he's gonna be able to coach.
I wouldn't be surprised if they're in the playoff and
when a winning a chip here in a couple of years,
which he could do that, and then the staff he's assembled,
so I'm I'm excited for him, and I'm also excited
for Morgan to take over Utah. No better man to
do that, and I think both programs are gonna ascend.
Speaker 3 (19:06):
To the top.
Speaker 5 (19:07):
So when when Philip takes his head coaching gig and
assembles a staff of like you and Hardwick, like, are
you gonna you're gonna take that gig when he offers
it to you at either whatever NC state or some
NFL team.
Speaker 11 (19:22):
I don't know. I don't know if I can coach
college with the way the rules are and having to
re recruit your guys every every six months and having
to I'm not I'm not a big guy to have
the big guys to play for me. And if I
if my resume and my personality don't say I could
be the best coach for you, then I don't want you.
Speaker 3 (19:41):
So I don't know.
Speaker 11 (19:44):
That'd be hard pressed for me to go co go
coach college with the way the rules are set up
right now. So if he calls me about the NFL
and then the time is right, then yeah, man, let's go.
Let's go take that challenge of.
Speaker 6 (19:56):
But you will go to Ann Arbor to speak to
Winningham's team. You are on rec heard saying that in
this interview college football hall of famer, and he's a
hall of famer, he can go anywhere he wants. Eric Weddle,
We're very happy to have you on and to talk
about things. You know, both teams in town and it's
crazy to say they're in town now because they weren't
(20:17):
back back when you were first playing in San Diego.
Speaker 3 (20:20):
But who do you follow more closely? The LA Chargers
or the LA Rams.
Speaker 11 (20:26):
They'll always be San Diego Chargers to me, so I
reference them as San Diego.
Speaker 3 (20:32):
I follow the Rams.
Speaker 11 (20:33):
I'm still really really close with Sean. Him and I
got a very unique close relationship. We probably talked still
once a week and more of a soundboard for him,
and just you know, I watch every game, so but
I support the Chargers and obviously I watched the Ravens.
Still I'm still very close with with the management and organization.
(20:54):
Now Harve's leaving and where he'll end up, I'll support
his squad. So but probably I would say the Rams
for the most part, just because my relationship with Sean
and how close we are.
Speaker 5 (21:06):
Is it a Is it a big deal? I mean,
you played in Baltimore, you played in Utahs, you know
what it's like to play in the cold regularly. But
is it a big deal for a team that has
played an entire season for the most part in you know,
mild temperatures home games seventy eighty degrees to be in
a playoff game on Sunday that it kick says it's
gonna feel like between negative two and five degrees.
Speaker 11 (21:29):
Listen, I don't care if you practice outside every day
or you don't practice outside every day. The one you're
playing and cold, everybody's cold, and so it's honestly, it's
just talking points and guys that have played they understand like, Yeah,
you're gonna be cold, You're gonna be miserable.
Speaker 3 (21:46):
It's it's that's all it is.
Speaker 11 (21:48):
So you're either gonna let it be an excuse when
you lose the game, or you're it's not gonna be
an issue when you win the game, So I don't.
Speaker 3 (21:56):
I don't know.
Speaker 11 (21:56):
I think it's more talking points and it's finding reasons
to pick Chicago when you look at the both teams,
that the Rams are a better team, the better offense,
the better defense, special teams is a wash. Hopefully the
Rams don't trick that off, but they're finding ways to
make people think Chicago should win this game when they're not.
Speaker 5 (22:17):
What do you I'm sure you mentioned you Kip, you
keep in touch with with Sean McVay, which means you're
keeping your eyes on Matthew Stafford. I mean, the guy
couldn't play a lick of training camp because he got
a back issue. Were you surprised by the season he
put together? And kind of do you think this could
be a ride off into the sunset kind of year
for him considering his injury history. If they're able to
(22:37):
put this whole thing, you know, together, that ends with
them raising the Super Bowl Trophy, you know, I.
Speaker 3 (22:42):
Don't think he'll be done.
Speaker 11 (22:43):
I think Sean and him are going to ride this
out and as long as Matthew wants to play, he's
gonna be the MVP he should be. And I was
out out there in training camp. I go to training
camp every year and I'm win meetings and Sean allows
me to be a part of everything. So I was there,
and obviously me and Mass stay in touch, and he
(23:03):
wasn't practicing and he was dealing with some stuff, but
talk about like he's one of the toughest dudes mentally
and physically, and he was feeling like he had actually
dealt with those issues during OTAs, which he practiced through,
and so everyone was pretty confident, like, regardless of how
he's gonna feel, he's gonna be fine. Even though he
didn't get any reps in training him, they were basically
(23:25):
trying to like get it taken care of instead of waiting,
and so everyone in the building was confident. Did I
expect this type of season? Listen, there's not a better
thrower playing the position pre snap post snap than Stafford
his talent, and so I expected him to have a
big year MVP. I would be lying if I said that,
(23:50):
But he's been incredible. And when I tell Gays to
watch football and watch that position, there's nobody plays it
better than Stafford and the position the right way.
Speaker 6 (24:01):
Eric, you're the best man, and nobody deserves more and
may there be more accolades coming your way. Congrats on
all your success, good luck with your team, and if
you want to come on and promote the Broncos when

Pierre Louis Dreyfus, the grandfather of Elaine from Seinfeld.
Speaker 3 (27:37):
Oh well, that's cool, Elaine's grandfather.
Speaker 6 (27:41):
But beyond being Elaine and the veep lady's grandfather who
had a dalliance with Northwestern and was on Saturday Night Live.
Speaker 3 (27:49):
For a short period.
Speaker 5 (27:51):
Very funny.
Speaker 3 (27:52):
Wow, she's a hilarious lady. This one.
Speaker 6 (27:56):
Her grandfather, Pierre, was born in Paris out of a
ship owner, the Louis Dreyfus shipping conglomerate. Matt started with
Pierre's father. We're talking about even way back in the
early twentieth century.
Speaker 3 (28:16):
Billion with a B.
Speaker 6 (28:18):
Sorry, Kate's no Austin powers here. Billionaires, Jewish family with
a B.
Speaker 3 (28:27):
With a j.
Speaker 5 (28:29):
Oh the Jew, Yeah, the b the billionaire party.
Speaker 3 (28:33):
Pierre Louis Jew.
Speaker 6 (28:35):
He got a law degree, went to military service during
World War Two. He joined the French Resistances Viva las Dirk.
He was in the south of France coordinating groups, and
then he had to flee to Africa Casa Blankistan. He
(29:00):
joined the first Free French Division. Was a gunner on
a bomber. And we're not talking about No. Punk eighty
one bombing missage Mission Damn during World War two. That's
like a Memphis bell like dude Catch.
Speaker 3 (29:15):
Twenty two esque Memphis Bell as well.
Speaker 5 (29:18):
Matt, you tell me which one is more high art
Memphis bell er Catch twenty.
Speaker 3 (29:24):
Two the ladder Belgium, Netherlands.
Speaker 5 (29:29):
You're not that impressive.
Speaker 3 (29:31):
He is just because he didn't write anything else.
Speaker 6 (29:33):
But as he said, when people would ask him, how
come you never were able to write anything? His cools
catch what he too. He said, were you ever able
to write anything? His cools catch what he do?
Speaker 5 (29:42):
If you, buddy, that's pretty good answer, I would say.
Speaker 6 (29:49):
He did so well and was so decorated in the
resistance on his plane, they assigned him as the French
representative to the British Royal Air Force, as Darth would say,
person After the war, he went back to the Louis
Dreyfus Shipping wealth conglomerate and continued to be French a
(30:16):
man of mystery. He raced under a fake name in
the Twenty four Hours of Lemont eleven times.
Speaker 3 (30:24):
She like raised her eggs.
Speaker 2 (30:26):
It's freaking guys, like the greatest dude ever.
Speaker 3 (30:28):
He's an animal. He was married twice.
Speaker 6 (30:32):
His first wife is the one that's Julie, Louis Dreyfus's grandmother,
Julie aka Elaine from Seinfeld. Her dad ran the company
as a French billionaire and then eventually moved to New York.
And that's why Elaine is an American Catholic and not
(30:53):
a French Jew. Makes sense I mean not Elaine. Elaine
is a New York Jewish lady.
Speaker 5 (31:01):
Yes, like Jerry, New York Jewish guy.
Speaker 3 (31:06):
Everybody else on the show, basically.
Speaker 5 (31:07):
Kramer, New York gentile. It's twice so crazy.
Speaker 3 (31:15):
They got it together.
Speaker 6 (31:16):
They're good, all right, Matt, you got the alarm and

Speaker 5 (31:21):
No, I do I have your live guy. You know why? Uh,
you know, staying in the hotel with us peas stay
and I just ran into Danny Carr. Oh my god,
we are your Tools show of record. Uh not Danny
Carey today, but supremely underrated Pasty Licks, Colorful Chords, Happy
(31:42):
sixty first to Adam Jones, you're.
Speaker 6 (31:46):
Really dancing through the tulips this week with your music nostalgia, Matt,
I am.
Speaker 3 (31:50):
I do not flaming lips.
Speaker 5 (31:52):
Flaming lips. I do not hide my affection for Tool,
one of my all time favorites.
Speaker 3 (31:57):
Well, I've had you.
Speaker 5 (31:58):
You know you're a tool, So I'm a tool to
two Way Street. There is a cool interesting if you're
into I guess you know, kind of like modern alt rock,
or I should say modern prog rock. Tool is not
old rock. They are more prog metal kind of deal
(32:19):
and what could have been Born in park Ridge, raised
in Libertyville and crappy ass. Libertyville produced both Adam Jones
of Tool, Tom Morello of Rage. Adam Jones child prodigy
on violin, accepted into the Suzuki program, ran with that
through his freshman year in high school. Exceptional artist as well,
thought maybe a career in animation would be his calling.
(32:41):
He worked in three dimensional sculptures, so all those incredible
claymation Tool videos were directed and the ideas of our
Adam Jones today. From violin, he picked up the double bass.
He was classically trained for a while, played in various orchestras.
I mentioned Libertyville not the biggest town, so no surprise.
Jones played bass on the band Electric Sheep. Tom Morello
was on guitar. Jones wanted out, so he said I'm
(33:04):
moving to California, and about six months later would encourage
his best friend Tom Morella to follow. So without Adam Jones,
not Tool and not a Rage against the machine either.
Probably he never received traditional guitar lessons. Instead, he and
Morello went to the guitar school of Morello and Jones
they bounced ideas off each other, learned from that. After
(33:25):
moves to La, he meets Paul Deamore chasing Giggs in
the film industry, they meet Mayner James Keenan, who was
also an artist visual arts kind of stuff, working at
a pet store, remodeler or something like that, and was
playing in a band with Danny Carey called Green Jelly.
In eighty nine, Keenan meets Jones through a mutual friend,
plays in some songs. Jones's floored says we got to
start a band. Like now, they start jamming. Danny Carey
(33:48):
happened to live in the apartment above Keenan, and they
start a band. By then they've got Keenan. Everybody's got
a relationship with Morello, so they all kind of know
each other. Tom introduces Jones to Carrie Kerry introduces them
to dam More Blah blah blah, and Tool is formed
pretty much two years playing all over La, support Slots,
(34:10):
Rollins Band, Rage, White Zombie signed by Zoo, put out
Opiate in ninety two, Foundation for Undertow, which came out
the next year. Sober game changing song really kind of
shifted alt rock into a more metal direction. Game changing
video made by our guy Adam Jones and then Enema.
This one nineteen ninety five turned him into an arena
(34:32):
level outfit and Kerrang's album of the year. This song
was a hit, so a stink Fist and that, of
course set up Lateralists. In two thousand and one, even
bigger Parabola again Jones with a ten and a half
minute epic video for MTV. In the event, they made
it Skizm, probably their biggest song today, won their second
Grammy for Best Metal Performance, and our man Jones would
(34:54):
win a Grammy himself for Best Recording Package as Art
Director in two thousand and seven for their album ten
thousand Days. He has got his own signature Gibson. He
is a stud of studs and he is sixty one today.
You know Danny Kerr, you know Maynor, James Keena, but
you should also know Adam Chokes.
Speaker 3 (35:13):
And we'll be back tomorrow.
Speaker 6 (35:17):
We're shifting things from the alt rock world, which is
Matt and I, to the metal world to David vass.
Speaker 3 (35:25):
Oh, he's so metal with Dodger talk. We're coming back.

As it was part of the World's Fair, the Eiffel
Tower was meant to be brought down after twenty years. However,
it survived because the military began using it as a
radio tower to intercept crucial military transmissions during World War One,
so it's stuck around. Otherwise, you know, all of us

Yeah.
Speaker 6 (04:46):
Chargers head coach Jim Harbaugh met the media today and
included our own Matt Muddy Smith, who was in the house,
and Matt asked Jim about his next offensive coordinator. Sounds
like Jim didn't really answer the question, but then he
circled back.
Speaker 7 (05:04):
I'd like to give you a better answer on your
original uh question, Uh and I And the way I
answered it was pretty pretty vague and nebulous. Uh and
I don't. The reason I did that money was because
we're open. We are open to we are not putting
ourselves into it has to be one system or one
(05:28):
specific type of type of offensive system.
Speaker 5 (05:32):
Uh.
Speaker 7 (05:32):
Widen that being cast and you know that that person
that the persons that we interview, Uh, we're gonna look
for the best one that's that's uh you know, has
a track record, has uh has proven success and can
(05:53):
uh show us his vision uh for what our offenses
is going to look like and and and be like.
But we're open to to multiple a lot of ways
to skin a cat, you know, and and in offense
and in and in football. So, uh yeah, we're gonna
we're we try to get the get get the very
(06:15):
best one and that person. Uh, we're gonna bet it out.
Speaker 8 (06:19):
Get a little work detail that's to go way back.
Speaker 5 (06:23):
Coach the radio show Money repor a job, you told us.
Speaker 8 (06:28):
A story that it's always stuck with. You said, you
talked to bout sham Becker and he said, how are
you gonna play with a tight end at the end
of the offense flanks? And yes, you play with full back.
Yes you're gonna run God's playing power. He said yes,
And then he said you can be a coach. So
I guess I'm asking does that philosophy.
Speaker 4 (06:44):
Still hold for you.
Speaker 7 (06:45):
We're open to We're open to all all philosophers. A
lot of ways to skin a cat.
Speaker 6 (06:51):
Oh, it doesn't sound mad. It doesn't sound like they
want to run God's play anymore. Right, sounds like they're
gonna run the run and shoot. They're kind of convert
to the bagavad Gita they run.
Speaker 5 (07:01):
I heard Lavelle Edwards it's coming in.
Speaker 3 (07:03):
Oh, that'd be great. It's either him or Fish or
to Bury.
Speaker 6 (07:06):
I hear the interview with the same day, the Rams
are getting ready for the Divisional round matchup against the
Bears on Sunday at Soldier Field in Chicago. I got
a weather update, p They're at a three and a
half point favorite, even though they're on the road, and
even though the weather is.
Speaker 5 (07:21):
What I got a weather update. Here we go. Kickoff
is going to be at I believe seven pm Chicago time.
It will be eleven degrees. Feels like zero to two
is what we're looking at for Sunday night. All right, Chicago.
Speaker 6 (07:43):
That's good for a dome team that plays in southern California.
Speaker 5 (07:46):
Can I get a weather update, man.
Speaker 3 (07:48):
When we're in the Dome.
Speaker 5 (07:50):
It's nice outside here in Chicago in January, it's zero.
Speaker 6 (07:57):
John Harbaugh's headed in New York. He'll basically do most
of his business in New Jersey. They were quick to
bring him in for an interview and not let him leave.
So John Harbaugh was out of a job for like
twenty five hours.
Speaker 5 (08:14):
Yeah, that was the number one job of the nine
that were out there, Uh, the one that everybody wanted.
John Harball was the most qualified candidate, and his offensive coordinator,
Todd Monkin, who you know very well from his college days,
was reportedly a top candidate for a number of offensive
coordinator positions, and Harball wanted to get this thing done
(08:37):
real quick so he could bring Monkin with him to
run the offense with Jackson Dart, Cam Scataboo and Malik Nighbors.
Speaker 6 (08:47):
The Lakers are twenty four and fourteen. They're at home
tonight versus the Hernets.
Speaker 5 (08:51):
I think they could win it.
Speaker 6 (08:52):
Talk to Don McClain about it. The Lakers have lost
three of the last four. They're playing five hundred basketball
in the last ten games.
Speaker 3 (09:00):
The Clippers are set up.
Speaker 5 (09:02):
What He's not happy because he thinks they can win it.
It's not like he does not like your five hundred
basketball the last ten games. I didn't write it. I
know that's what he wants.
Speaker 6 (09:15):
They're not gonna win it. The Clippers are seventeen to
twenty three. They are red hot. They cold have won
four in a row. Yeah, your ice cold like a sack.
Eleven of the last thirteen Clipper games cold have been
won by the Clippers circulation problem. The Clippers hit the
road in Toronto tomorrow right here on ampire seventy LA Sports.
(09:37):
They're only one game out of the playing tournament in
the West. Head coach Tyloo after the game last night,
feel a lot better about himself and his big fat neck.
Speaker 9 (09:47):
I think the biggest thing for us is, you know,
to get healthy. That's number one. You know, that's huge
for us, you know, and then just keep trusting. I
think the biggest thing is just trust.
Speaker 3 (09:59):
You know.
Speaker 9 (10:00):
Offensively, you know, teams are going to double team Kawae
on double team James, making sure our spacing is right,
getting to the right spots and they're making the right places,
and just trusting it. That's gonna be our biggest thing. Defensively,
you know, we've gotten a lot better. You know what
we want to do. What our foundation is every single night,
and I told our guys like we shouldn't have to
have shoot arounds. We should come in every night noring
(10:20):
what we're doing defensively, knowing what we're doing offensively, how
we want to attack. So we got to get to
that point where we were good enough to do that.
Speaker 3 (10:27):
But you just gotta keep.
Speaker 9 (10:28):
Building defensively and then offensively, Like I said, James and
Kawhi a special enough offensively that we can you know,
we can get through, but it's gonna be our defensive
pulls us through.
Speaker 5 (10:38):
You die, you were done hearing when you say fat nack.
I just want to make sure I've got to because
you know, I think fat neck, and maybe I think
like a you know, a real thick neck bad ass,
you know that can kind of put his head in
somebody's chest.
Speaker 3 (10:50):
And knock them on the rock lessener.
Speaker 5 (10:52):
Yeah, Like, but that's I don't get the sense that
that's what you're intimating when it comes to coach tylu
at All, I.
Speaker 6 (10:59):
Figure, you know, bowl your neck and play that Nebraska
point guard.
Speaker 5 (11:03):
Yeah, is that that's what you're That's what you're disgusting
in your description of a fat neck.
Speaker 3 (11:08):
Yeah.
Speaker 6 (11:09):
You know, here's a guy you used to like to
call fat all the time, playing girt job. He's gonna
play looking at Dad, Bud Pete. Look at it.
Speaker 3 (11:20):
Tm tvus A.
Speaker 6 (11:22):
He's gonna have Clayton Kershaw on it for the World
Baseball Classic. We talked to about it. The future Hall
of Famer was on the Oh what do you know?
He was on the MLB Network today with Matt vas
Kersh and our friend and brother Hal to discuss it.
Here's part of that convo.
Speaker 10 (11:39):
Oh, I'm so excited. It's gonna be so fun. Yeah,
thanks for having me, guys. I think just when Diro
approached me about being a part of this team, and
I wanted to do it a few years ago, but
I was too broken for the insurance to cover my uh,
to cover my arm and everything. So now that it
doesn't matter and I get to go and be a
part of this group, like you said, is uh just
the most unbelievable group of teammates and guys. And so
(12:01):
I'm I'm just really excited.
Speaker 11 (12:02):
Me.
Speaker 4 (12:03):
It's gonna be so fun.
Speaker 12 (12:04):
No, that's that's really cool, Clayton. And you're right, I mean,
you're retired. That's the first thing that came to mind
for me is you can throw as much as you
want to throw.
Speaker 2 (12:12):
So that's pretty cool. Well, that's what I.
Speaker 10 (12:14):
Told Diro I said, I just want to be the
insurance policy, you know, if anybody needs a breather, or
if they need me to pitch back to back to back,
or if they don't need me to pitch at all. Like,
I'm just there to to be there. I just want
to be part of this group. And you know, I
learned a long time ago you just want to be
a part of great things. And this team seems like
a really fun, awesome group. And all these coaches I
(12:36):
played with, their good teammates, good friends of mine.
Speaker 4 (12:38):
So it'll be it'll be really fun.
Speaker 5 (12:40):
That's that's really cool.
Speaker 12 (12:41):
When did it cross your mind when you finished and
you were retired and you got back home and all
of a sudden, there's a WBC coming, When did it
cross your mind, Hey, maybe you know I might.
Speaker 2 (12:50):
Be able to do this.
Speaker 10 (12:52):
Well, Deiro called me and said and I missed his
call and said call me back to the WBC.
Speaker 4 (12:57):
And I thought you wanted to be the.
Speaker 10 (13:00):
Coach, and so I was like, oh, yeah, I'd love
to love to go coach or just help out or
do whatever.
Speaker 4 (13:04):
And then then he mentioned playing again.
Speaker 10 (13:07):
And I'm gonna be honest, I didn't have a whole
lot of interest in picking up a baseball again. But
I started throwing, you know, ten twelve days ago, and
it doesn't feel terrible.
Speaker 4 (13:16):
So I think, I think I'll be okay. I think
I'll be okay.
Speaker 13 (13:18):
You know, as happy as you are to be doing this,
I'm sure that group of pitchers that we just put
up is absolutely thrilled to have you not only on
the staff but as a resource to tap.
Speaker 4 (13:27):
Into your brain a little bit.
Speaker 2 (13:29):
What a squad this is.
Speaker 13 (13:30):
And as I start thinking about potential matchups, Clayton, and
I'm sure this has crossed your mind too, thinking of
you facing Showhy.
Speaker 2 (13:40):
It's something that we can dream about. Is that out
of the question.
Speaker 10 (13:45):
I think something will have gone terribly wrong if I
have to pitch against Team Japan in the finals or something.
I think we got a plenty of guys to get
that guy.
Speaker 4 (13:51):
Out and not me.
Speaker 10 (13:52):
But if that happens, I'll be nervous. I'll be nervous
at this point.
Speaker 5 (13:59):
Oh, that's fantasic. How in what world can you not
be excited about the World Baseball Classic When you hear
Clayton Kershaw that enthusiastic about putting on the red, white,
and blue old glory on that hat.
Speaker 3 (14:11):
Come on, you kidding me?
Speaker 5 (14:13):
You get a Japan Team USA showdown in the final.
Speaker 3 (14:17):
Huh.
Speaker 5 (14:17):
We're gonna have generations of people invested in this thing.

Speaker 6 (15:31):
Matt joining us right now and you're Southern California. Toyota
Dealers celebrity hotline.
Speaker 3 (15:36):
A real hero.
Speaker 6 (15:37):
Nine seasons with the Chargers, three with the Ravens. Finished
his fourteen year career. Remember he came on before and
after the Rams won the Super Bowl. Six time Pro Bowler,
five time All Pro. I did a Utah game where
they were still in the Mountain West and Eric Weddle
was a corner, he was a safety, he was a
(15:58):
running back, quarterback, he was a slot receiver and he punted.
Speaker 3 (16:03):
He is cool.
Speaker 6 (16:04):
One of the all time greats. Just announced yesterday College
Football Hall of Fame. He deserves it. Head coach, his
son is there and it's already getting offers at Rancho
Bernardo High School. He's riding Billy Bronco and we're happy
to have him back.
Speaker 3 (16:19):
On the show. A hero to us all.
Speaker 6 (16:22):
As I said Eric Weddell, Eric, congratulations on the Hall
of Fame.
Speaker 11 (16:27):
That's awesome, my man, Thanks for having me on. It's
always a joy to rap a little bit with you
guys and talk shop and shoot. Hall of Famer next
to my name is pretty surreal. Humbled by it. And yeah, man,
live in the HIGHLFE right now.
Speaker 6 (16:48):
You know, it's cool because you're with young people and
mentoring young people, which is a great thing to do
and a lot of work, no doubt about it.
Speaker 3 (16:57):
Down in Rancho Bernardo.
Speaker 6 (16:59):
And football's changed a lot from when Utah was in
the Mountain West. What what jumps out to you the
most when you think of those days at Utah where
you know, you were like a college player, but you weren't.
You were you were doing it like Pop Warner. You
didn't come off the field.
Speaker 3 (17:17):
Yeah.
Speaker 11 (17:18):
Well, I mean back in the day, Utah didn't have
as many good players across the board, you could say,
and so they had to.
Speaker 3 (17:27):
Move guys around.
Speaker 11 (17:28):
And the more valuable you you become. And so it
was a great reminder that when you get in the league,
you got to play special teams, You got to play
corner Nickels safety. So I got prepped pretty well at
Utah and uh coincided with a with a great NFL career.
Speaker 5 (17:48):
What do you make I know it's probably not what
we should start with, but you know, what do you
make of coach Whittingham going to Michigan one of the
blue bloods, a heck of a job at Utah. Kind
of your thoughts on on that move? Yeah, it was Uh.
Speaker 11 (18:00):
Shoot, you know, if a guy, you know, I love
coach with he knows that I'm I'm still keeping in
touch with him, and he knows I'd go out there
in a heartbeat to speak to his team if he
wanted it. So, uh, if a guy still wants to coach,
and you know, like he said in his press conference
that there are only maybe three to five schools that
(18:22):
he would entertain, and Michigan being one of them. And
when Michigan calls and you still have a desire to
go coach and turn around a program that's kind of
in shambles with what's been going on the last few years.
That I tell people, Michigan is lucky to get a
guy like him to get everything back in order. And
I kid, you know that staff he put together and
(18:44):
the kids are gonna that he's gonna be able to coach.
I wouldn't be surprised if they're in the playoff and
when a winning a chip here in a couple of years,
which he could do that, and then the staff he's assembled,
so I'm I'm excited for him, and I'm also excited
for Morgan to take over Utah. No better man to
do that, and I think both programs are gonna ascend.
Speaker 3 (19:06):
To the top.
Speaker 5 (19:07):
So when when Philip takes his head coaching gig and
assembles a staff of like you and Hardwick, like, are
you gonna you're gonna take that gig when he offers
it to you at either whatever NC state or some
NFL team.
Speaker 11 (19:22):
I don't know. I don't know if I can coach
college with the way the rules are and having to
re recruit your guys every every six months and having
to I'm not I'm not a big guy to have
the big guys to play for me. And if I
if my resume and my personality don't say I could
be the best coach for you, then I don't want you.
Speaker 3 (19:41):
So I don't know.
Speaker 11 (19:44):
That'd be hard pressed for me to go co go
coach college with the way the rules are set up
right now. So if he calls me about the NFL
and then the time is right, then yeah, man, let's go.
Let's go take that challenge of.
Speaker 6 (19:56):
But you will go to Ann Arbor to speak to
Winningham's team. You are on rec heard saying that in
this interview college football hall of famer, and he's a
hall of famer, he can go anywhere he wants. Eric Weddle,
We're very happy to have you on and to talk
about things. You know, both teams in town and it's
crazy to say they're in town now because they weren't
(20:17):
back back when you were first playing in San Diego.
Speaker 3 (20:20):
But who do you follow more closely? The LA Chargers
or the LA Rams.
Speaker 11 (20:26):
They'll always be San Diego Chargers to me, so I
reference them as San Diego.
Speaker 3 (20:32):
I follow the Rams.
Speaker 11 (20:33):
I'm still really really close with Sean. Him and I
got a very unique close relationship. We probably talked still
once a week and more of a soundboard for him,
and just you know, I watch every game, so but
I support the Chargers and obviously I watched the Ravens.
Still I'm still very close with with the management and organization.
(20:54):
Now Harve's leaving and where he'll end up, I'll support
his squad. So but probably I would say the Rams
for the most part, just because my relationship with Sean
and how close we are.
Speaker 5 (21:06):
Is it a Is it a big deal? I mean,
you played in Baltimore, you played in Utahs, you know
what it's like to play in the cold regularly. But
is it a big deal for a team that has
played an entire season for the most part in you know,
mild temperatures home games seventy eighty degrees to be in
a playoff game on Sunday that it kick says it's
gonna feel like between negative two and five degrees.
Speaker 11 (21:29):
Listen, I don't care if you practice outside every day
or you don't practice outside every day. The one you're
playing and cold, everybody's cold, and so it's honestly, it's
just talking points and guys that have played they understand like, Yeah,
you're gonna be cold, You're gonna be miserable.
Speaker 3 (21:46):
It's it's that's all it is.
Speaker 11 (21:48):
So you're either gonna let it be an excuse when
you lose the game, or you're it's not gonna be
an issue when you win the game, So I don't.
Speaker 3 (21:56):
I don't know.
Speaker 11 (21:56):
I think it's more talking points and it's finding reasons
to pick Chicago when you look at the both teams,
that the Rams are a better team, the better offense,
the better defense, special teams is a wash. Hopefully the
Rams don't trick that off, but they're finding ways to
make people think Chicago should win this game when they're not.
Speaker 5 (22:17):
What do you I'm sure you mentioned you Kip, you
keep in touch with with Sean McVay, which means you're
keeping your eyes on Matthew Stafford. I mean, the guy
couldn't play a lick of training camp because he got
a back issue. Were you surprised by the season he
put together? And kind of do you think this could
be a ride off into the sunset kind of year
for him considering his injury history. If they're able to
(22:37):
put this whole thing, you know, together, that ends with
them raising the Super Bowl Trophy, you know, I.
Speaker 3 (22:42):
Don't think he'll be done.
Speaker 11 (22:43):
I think Sean and him are going to ride this
out and as long as Matthew wants to play, he's
gonna be the MVP he should be. And I was
out out there in training camp. I go to training
camp every year and I'm win meetings and Sean allows
me to be a part of everything. So I was there,
and obviously me and Mass stay in touch, and he
(23:03):
wasn't practicing and he was dealing with some stuff, but
talk about like he's one of the toughest dudes mentally
and physically, and he was feeling like he had actually
dealt with those issues during OTAs, which he practiced through,
and so everyone was pretty confident, like, regardless of how
he's gonna feel, he's gonna be fine. Even though he
didn't get any reps in training him, they were basically
(23:25):
trying to like get it taken care of instead of waiting,
and so everyone in the building was confident. Did I
expect this type of season? Listen, there's not a better
thrower playing the position pre snap post snap than Stafford
his talent, and so I expected him to have a
big year MVP. I would be lying if I said that,
(23:50):
But he's been incredible. And when I tell Gays to
watch football and watch that position, there's nobody plays it
better than Stafford and the position the right way.
Speaker 6 (24:01):
Eric, you're the best man, and nobody deserves more and
may there be more accolades coming your way. Congrats on
all your success, good luck with your team, and if
you want to come on and promote the Broncos when
the season comes around, we'd love.
Speaker 11 (24:15):
To have that. Thank you so much for John, Hey anytime,

Pierre Louis Dreyfus, the grandfather of Elaine from Seinfeld.
Speaker 3 (27:37):
Oh well, that's cool, Elaine's grandfather.
Speaker 6 (27:41):
But beyond being Elaine and the veep lady's grandfather who
had a dalliance with Northwestern and was on Saturday Night Live.
Speaker 3 (27:49):
For a short period.
Speaker 5 (27:51):
Very funny.
Speaker 3 (27:52):
Wow, she's a hilarious lady. This one.
Speaker 6 (27:56):
Her grandfather, Pierre, was born in Paris out of a
ship owner, the Louis Dreyfus shipping conglomerate. Matt started with
Pierre's father. We're talking about even way back in the
early twentieth century.
Speaker 3 (28:16):
Billion with a B.
Speaker 6 (28:18):
Sorry, Kate's no Austin powers here. Billionaires, Jewish family with
a B.
Speaker 3 (28:27):
With a j.
Speaker 5 (28:29):
Oh the Jew, Yeah, the b the billionaire party.
Speaker 3 (28:33):
Pierre Louis Jew.
Speaker 6 (28:35):
He got a law degree, went to military service during
World War Two. He joined the French Resistances Viva las Dirk.
He was in the south of France coordinating groups, and
then he had to flee to Africa Casa Blankistan. He
(29:00):
joined the first Free French Division. Was a gunner on
a bomber. And we're not talking about No. Punk eighty
one bombing missage Mission Damn during World War two. That's
like a Memphis bell like dude Catch.
Speaker 3 (29:15):
Twenty two esque Memphis Bell as well.
Speaker 5 (29:18):
Matt, you tell me which one is more high art
Memphis bell er Catch twenty.
Speaker 3 (29:24):
Two the ladder Belgium, Netherlands.
Speaker 5 (29:29):
You're not that impressive.
Speaker 3 (29:31):
He is just because he didn't write anything else.
Speaker 6 (29:33):
But as he said, when people would ask him, how
come you never were able to write anything? His cools
catch what he too. He said, were you ever able
to write anything? His cools catch what he do?
Speaker 5 (29:42):
If you, buddy, that's pretty good answer, I would say.
Speaker 6 (29:49):
He did so well and was so decorated in the
resistance on his plane, they assigned him as the French
representative to the British Royal Air Force, as Darth would say,
person After the war, he went back to the Louis
Dreyfus Shipping wealth conglomerate and continued to be French a
(30:16):
man of mystery. He raced under a fake name in
the Twenty four Hours of Lemont eleven times.
Speaker 3 (30:24):
She like raised her eggs.
Speaker 2 (30:26):
It's freaking guys, like the greatest dude ever.
Speaker 3 (30:28):
He's an animal. He was married twice.
Speaker 6 (30:32):
His first wife is the one that's Julie, Louis Dreyfus's grandmother,
Julie aka Elaine from Seinfeld. Her dad ran the company
as a French billionaire and then eventually moved to New York.
And that's why Elaine is an American Catholic and not
(30:53):
a French Jew. Makes sense I mean not Elaine. Elaine
is a New York Jewish lady.
Speaker 5 (31:01):
Yes, like Jerry, New York Jewish guy.
Speaker 3 (31:06):
Everybody else on the show, basically.
Speaker 5 (31:07):
Kramer, New York gentile. It's twice so crazy.
Speaker 3 (31:15):
They got it together.
Speaker 6 (31:16):
They're good, all right, Matt, you got the alarm and
they're not neurotic at all on that show.
Speaker 5 (31:21):
No, I do I have your live guy. You know why? Uh,
you know, staying in the hotel with us peas stay
and I just ran into Danny Carr. Oh my god,
we are your Tools show of record. Uh not Danny
Carey today, but supremely underrated Pasty Licks, Colorful Chords, Happy
(31:42):
sixty first to Adam Jones, you're.
Speaker 6 (31:46):
Really dancing through the tulips this week with your music nostalgia, Matt,
I am.
Speaker 3 (31:50):
I do not flaming lips.
Speaker 5 (31:52):
Flaming lips. I do not hide my affection for Tool,
one of my all time favorites.
Speaker 3 (31:57):
Well, I've had you.
Speaker 5 (31:58):
You know you're a tool, So I'm a tool to
two Way Street. There is a cool interesting if you're
into I guess you know, kind of like modern alt rock,
or I should say modern prog rock. Tool is not
old rock. They are more prog metal kind of deal
(32:19):
and what could have been Born in park Ridge, raised
in Libertyville and crappy ass. Libertyville produced both Adam Jones
of Tool, Tom Morello of Rage. Adam Jones child prodigy
on violin, accepted into the Suzuki program, ran with that
through his freshman year in high school. Exceptional artist as well,
thought maybe a career in animation would be his calling.
(32:41):
He worked in three dimensional sculptures, so all those incredible
claymation Tool videos were directed and the ideas of our
Adam Jones today. From violin, he picked up the double bass.
He was classically trained for a while, played in various orchestras.
I mentioned Libertyville not the biggest town, so no surprise.
Jones played bass on the band Electric Sheep. Tom Morello
was on guitar. Jones wanted out, so he said I'm
(33:04):
moving to California, and about six months later would encourage
his best friend Tom Morella to follow. So without Adam Jones,
not Tool and not a Rage against the machine either.
Probably he never received traditional guitar lessons. Instead, he and
Morello went to the guitar school of Morello and Jones
they bounced ideas off each other, learned from that. After
(33:25):
moves to La, he meets Paul Deamore chasing Giggs in
the film industry, they meet Mayner James Keenan, who was
also an artist visual arts kind of stuff, working at
a pet store, remodeler or something like that, and was
playing in a band with Danny Carey called Green Jelly.
In eighty nine, Keenan meets Jones through a mutual friend,
plays in some songs. Jones's floored says we got to
start a band. Like now, they start jamming. Danny Carey
(33:48):
happened to live in the apartment above Keenan, and they
start a band. By then they've got Keenan. Everybody's got
a relationship with Morello, so they all kind of know
each other. Tom introduces Jones to Carrie Kerry introduces them
to dam More Blah blah blah, and Tool is formed
pretty much two years playing all over La, support Slots,
(34:10):
Rollins Band, Rage, White Zombie signed by Zoo, put out
Opiate in ninety two, Foundation for Undertow, which came out
the next year. Sober game changing song really kind of
shifted alt rock into a more metal direction. Game changing
video made by our guy Adam Jones and then Enema.
This one nineteen ninety five turned him into an arena
(34:32):
level outfit and Kerrang's album of the year. This song
was a hit, so a stink Fist and that, of
course set up Lateralists. In two thousand and one, even
bigger Parabola again Jones with a ten and a half
minute epic video for MTV. In the event, they made
it Skizm, probably their biggest song today, won their second
Grammy for Best Metal Performance, and our man Jones would
(34:54):
win a Grammy himself for Best Recording Package as Art
Director in two thousand and seven for their album ten
thousand Days. He has got his own signature Gibson. He
is a stud of studs and he is sixty one today.
You know Danny Kerr, you know Maynor, James Keena, but
you should also know Adam Chokes.
Speaker 3 (35:13):
And we'll be back tomorrow.
Speaker 6 (35:17):
We're shifting things from the alt rock world, which is
Matt and I, to the metal world to David vass.
Speaker 3 (35:25):
Oh, he's so metal with Dodger talk. We're coming back.
He's got Dalton Rushing.
Speaker 6 (35:31):
He sent Rord Van away, but Rushing is still a
Dodger and Mark de Rossa enjoyed David Vasse Award winning
