Speaker 3 (00:43):
Somebody wants to that phone.

Speaker 4 (00:47):
Okay, episode in the seventies, A lot of feedback.

Speaker 1 (00:57):
We've got a lot of feedback about that sees Buzz
Static Status episode in Stanton. If you're out there, you
have a new nickname. Your name is statn State, Statun
not state, and it's Staton.

Speaker 2 (01:14):
Isn't that like a blood thing? Staton Stanton? Yeah, I
think so medicine or something. Yeah, anyway, you.

Speaker 1 (01:21):
Guys hit us up at five eight zero five four
one three eight oh five or buzz at Buzzheadmedia dot com.
And uh, like a whole bunch of people did, So
we're gonna get through that. And then many of you
if you saw my Facebook post. Well, and I don't
know what Todd's gonna use for a title, but uh,
we have a special guest tonight if you don't know

(01:43):
for some weird reason, hang on. But uh, Dave called,
Dave called.

Speaker 2 (01:47):
We're skipping Steve.

Speaker 1 (01:49):
Well, I just we usually start with called, so we're
kind of going in seniority on the because Dave calls.

Speaker 2 (01:55):
Uh yeah, well he is pretty much the senior caller.

Speaker 1 (01:59):
And he did like the stat episode. Yeah, Dave, easily,
you are the number one caller has called in the
most times. Uh Styton, I don't know if you have
this stats and you forgot to say it, or maybe
you said it and we've all forgotten what you said.

(02:19):
But Dave wants to know what episode was the first
episode he called on, like what number of what.

Speaker 2 (02:27):
Was the I think I remember him saying a date.

Speaker 1 (02:31):
I remember, I think I remember stateon saying he emailed
on this episode and maybe he and I think I think, well,
I think what he might have done was taken that
as Dave's first contact. It's not Dave's first phone call,
so I think we did now that I'm thinking about it,

(02:51):
I think we did talk about Dave's first email. I
think so, Styton, Dave wants to know what episode was
the first phone call, and you may have that, and
so just let us know. I'm assuming he does somewhere. So, uh, yeah,

(03:13):
that's kind of all. Dave had ask about movies. We
can talk about that over on Bull's Hit Radio. And
then Steve from San Antone called. We haven't heard from
Steve in a little while. Yeah, but you know, Steve,
out of all the people that call, I think you
crack us up the most.

Speaker 2 (03:34):
Oh yeah, he's the one that forgets to hang up. Yeah.

Speaker 1 (03:37):
But just so just the things that he says, and
I don't know, he gets as much a kickouts out
of us, I think as we do out of him.

Speaker 2 (03:46):
So that's true.

Speaker 1 (03:49):
But he liked the stat episode as well, and he
kind of agreed with Stayton that we kind of fell
kind of a need people wanting to remember back into
the their youth, the days of their ute, and he
also wondered in so Mike, Yeah, so my question is,

(04:13):
I know it would probably be way too messy to count,
but Stayton, do you notice our clicks? Tongue clicks, tongue
clicks or Todd maybe clicking a pin here?

Speaker 2 (04:26):
I don't think I think that's you clicking.

Speaker 1 (04:28):
Do you do you hear those clicks? Stayton? So Stain's
got a lot of explaining to do. Okay, So somebody
out there is going to swear it was a pin.

Speaker 2 (04:37):
That's a pin, which it was, and that's right next
to the microphone. This is a pin two and a
half feet away, and you can't hear that, okay.

Speaker 1 (04:45):
So we'll try to find out, Steve. So Stayton, let
us know if you notice. I just want to know,
did you notice? Do you notice the clicks? And if
you do, what episode did they start? If they if
they did, maybe they were there from the beginning. I
don't know. Probably Larry, Larry tell them what Larry had
to say.

Speaker 2 (05:04):
Larry's from Washington called he also enjoyed these stats episode.
And I have noticed this myself about you, Curtis. You
tend to interrupt yourself when you're I.

Speaker 1 (05:16):
Need an example.

Speaker 2 (05:17):
Oh, you'll be like talk and then squirrel. I mean
you'll be like you'll you won't change subject, but you
won't finish your sentence. You do that a lot. And apparently,
and also he wanted to know when I started saying
sheer reader? And that was early because Bella when Bella
who's now fourteen, when she was little, when when we'd

(05:39):
go pick her up and would take her home to
her mom and she'd go, she read her So she
started she started that and to this day she doesn't
remember doing that. Oh wow, Yeah, I'm like, don't you
remember saying she reader? She's like, no, Bobby, I don't
know what you're talking about. So it just stuck with me.

Speaker 1 (05:54):
So the question is, when was the first time you
said that on an episode.

Speaker 2 (06:00):
I it'd be early it'd be early on I mean
within the first I know, the first.

Speaker 1 (06:06):
Year, Stayton, see if you know that, Well, come.

Speaker 2 (06:08):
On State and you're slacking. And he commented on he
was wondering about Larry from Washington, was wondering about how
long he'd been listening, and he found his first email
to us was from February sixth of twenty nineteen. So
he surmises that he had to be listening in the
mid to late twenty eighteen, so he's been listening quite
a while.

Speaker 1 (06:28):
He's one of our longer listeners.

Speaker 2 (06:30):
Longer listeners, and Richard Quamos called Richard, Yeah, he liked it.

Speaker 1 (06:37):
He liked this STAT episode. Thought it was liked all
the interesting information as well. Oh and Steve from San
anton did say that he didn't really I don't know
if he got even any mention on the STAT episode.
But yeah, when we do the updated or the second
STAT episode, Steve from San Antonio.

Speaker 2 (06:57):
Yeah, the stateon is literally almost two years behind. Oh wow,
he's eighty he's eighty episodes behind. That's the yeah one
and a half here and so yeah.

Speaker 1 (07:10):
Yeah, and have we I don't know that we've mentioned. Well,
let me mention that in a second. Okay, So Stayton
emailed and Stane even listened to the STAT episode. He says, hey, guys,
I really enjoyed listening to the STAT episode. Thanks for

(07:31):
giving me the forum that said I would feel bad
if I didn't hit myself up for my own quirks.
As I was listening, I found out that I am
a so man, he's a so man, so man, okay,
and then in parentheses this is exactly what he typed.

(07:54):
I kid you not, He said, Curtis, don't say anything
to Todd. And let's see if he pops in with
old man from the Blues staying yes, yes, I just
pause and I'd let him go.

Speaker 2 (08:11):
That is too funny. Fun that is fun.

Speaker 1 (08:16):
That is funny. And then he says, anyway, I realized
I was so a lot, so I did my own
quick stat tracking, and by my count, I said so
one hundred and eighteen times. Apologies to all the buzzheads
who are being annoyed by that Levy guy. Steak and potatoes.

Speaker 2 (08:36):
That's funny. And then that, yeah, no, that.

Speaker 1 (08:40):
Is too funny. He knows you like the back of
his hand. And then Robert Abbada Marco, we're kind of
out of I think I've caught up on everything he's emailed.
But he said, by the way, what time do you
begin your Facebook live episodes? In case we did not
answer that, we usually begin the second Tuesday of the

(09:01):
month around seven pm. So if we didn't answer that before,
there's your answer to that.

Speaker 2 (09:09):
Depending on how long Toby keeps Curtis in the parking lot.

Speaker 1 (09:12):
Zachary Toby, are you out there? I wonder if Toby
listens to our podcast.

Speaker 2 (09:16):
I think he does, because he's yeah, I think he does.

Speaker 1 (09:19):
Was stayed let us know and then we have I
don't think we've mentioned Gretchen's second pilgrimage.

Speaker 2 (09:29):
The second coming Oftchen.

Speaker 1 (09:31):
Gretchen is if anybody wants to come to Enid on
the weekend of Saturder September thirteenth. It's a Saturday. We're
having the Cherokee Strip Parade in downtown End and Gretchen
will be here that day. So if you guys are
have ever thought about making a trip to Enid, that

(09:51):
would be a good day to do it because there'll
be some stuff happening in that day.

Speaker 2 (09:54):
I think maybe we can make her grant more for
or whatever.

Speaker 1 (09:57):
I don't know, she's she's what did she say say
something about me pulling the trailer in the jeep in
the parade and her doing something to do with James
Taylor or something. So, and we have not told her
that that's the episode where we're gonna have her do

(10:17):
a James Taylor episode. Since she's such a oh.

Speaker 2 (10:19):
We haven't told her that I don't think so have we.

Speaker 1 (10:22):
Have, Gretchen, if you're listening, that will be We're gonna
leave it up to you to bring all kinds of
your James Taylor information that Tuesday night.

Speaker 2 (10:30):
We should probably answer.

Speaker 1 (10:33):
We will, yeah, in case you're not listening for some
weird reason. But yeah, so you guys, look, look for
a James Taylor episode with Gretchen coming up in September.

Speaker 2 (10:42):
Because apparently she I think she's now she may be
liking James Taylor.

Speaker 1 (10:46):
No, I think she wants to give us a reason
she doesn't.

Speaker 2 (10:48):
Like James Taylor because he probably says Carmore.

Speaker 1 (10:52):
I think he likes Carmel. I think that's why she
doesn't like listening to him. So, and you know what
his Oddly enough, did you know that his concert is
actually that Tuesday night that we're going to be recording.

Speaker 2 (11:04):
Oh wow, it's serendipitous.

Speaker 1 (11:06):
Yeah. So the night that he's performing in Oklahoma, which
Gretchen will be in Oklahoma, she'll be talking about him.

Speaker 2 (11:13):
I wonder if we could get him to stop by.
I don't know, but I bet he'll be performing.

Speaker 1 (11:17):
I bet his nose he'll be itching. It'd be like
somebody in oklahoma's talking about me. So anyway, Okay, so yeah,
if you guys want to meet Gretchen or come see
the Cherkey Strip parade, be here on the thirteenth.

Speaker 2 (11:30):
Yeah, and I guess I see she'll be the furthest
one ever from do they do the thing? Or how
many people have come from far away? And who's come
to furthest to see the parade? Oh?

Speaker 1 (11:40):
I don't know. I don't think they do, but.

Speaker 2 (11:42):
I thought they did that stuff.

Speaker 1 (11:44):
She probably would be the furthest Yeah, I bet I'll
almost bet you. And then I think that's all the
emails and phone calls I got. All right, so we
are going to uh call Jeffrey.

Speaker 2 (12:00):
All right, We're gonna put you on a quick pause
you I'll never even notice. Did you know that I
haven't pause you yet? That's why you haven't noticed that, Cordy.

Speaker 1 (13:31):
A wow, a waste of money.

Speaker 2 (13:37):
Yeah, somebody's gonna win, you you know.

Speaker 1 (13:39):
It's a scam for everybody but the winner.

Speaker 2 (13:41):
Yeah.

Speaker 3 (13:44):
Yeah, but if you go look here in at least
in my country, it's most of the times people up
north and in the South where I live, we almost
never win.

Speaker 2 (13:55):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (13:55):
In the in the United States. It's California, California.

So so it's for they c.

Speaker 2 (14:14):
So yeah, so now I'm sorry. Seventies a seventies eight yeah. Yeah.

Speaker 1 (14:24):
So before we jump into the seventies, everybody knows you
that listens to the show regularly because we talk about
you every week and you send every you send a
lot of people letters. Give us a little bit of
background about you, not necessarily related to the seventies. Right now,
just tell us kind of what you do and Jeffrey
and where you're living and all that good stuff.

Speaker 3 (14:46):
Well, I'm Jeffrey. Hello, I'm thirty three years old. I
live in Netherlands, which we call all little frog country
because it's small. Yeah. I live in the south in

(15:10):
MS in a city called Herlin, which is a big
city in the south, one of the oldest cities in
the Netherlands. It's a roomy name is Corio Vallum, which

(15:30):
is cool. I'm a nineties kit and the early two
thousands kit. And when I was small there was a
show called That seventy Show, which I really like.

Speaker 2 (15:48):
Yeah.

Speaker 3 (15:50):
Yeah. And then there was a movie called Harry Potter.
I don't know if you heard it.

Speaker 1 (16:00):
Oh yeah, oh yeah, we've seen all the episodes fifty
million times.

Speaker 3 (16:06):
Yeah, And well that had a huge impact on my life.
It made me want to read I didn't like to before,
made me buy books. And in the movies they wrote
with quills tatters, and I of course wanted to do

(16:31):
that too.

Speaker 2 (16:32):
Ah.

Speaker 1 (16:33):
So that's where you got that from, gotcha.

Speaker 3 (16:36):
Yeah? And my parents for Christmas brought me a quilt
and sat which was just a pan with a feather
stuck in it. And that's where my telegraphy journey began.
And my mom is a seventies kid. She was born

(17:02):
in the sixties but had the teenage years in the
seventies like you guys for a bit, I think. And
she taught me, of course, all about the seventies blows,
the music, the movies, such things. At simple times, only

(17:27):
three television zagers as we call them, which was the
Netherlands one, the Netherlands two and German one because we
are very close to the German border. That's why we
learned at school. Not only Dutch, but also English, German

(17:51):
and French. W yeah. Yeah. And then later I started
to watch that seventies show again and I was thinking, well,
I can't watch that during work, so I looked up

(18:18):
the Seventies Show podcast on Spotify and that I saw
a little show called the Seventies Boss podcast.

Speaker 2 (18:31):
I know that name someone.

Speaker 3 (18:32):
And then I talked to myself, why not an email?
And well, here we are.

Speaker 1 (18:40):
That's pretty cool.

Speaker 2 (18:41):
Do you remember how long ago that was you started
listening to our podcast?

Speaker 3 (18:46):
I think two years now.

Speaker 2 (18:51):
Oh, very cool. We appreciate it. And you know what,
we appreciate all you do. And you know when you
reach out to our other listeners and stuff, and have
you got much respondents back from other listeners?

Speaker 3 (19:02):
Oh? Yes, yes, cool? Uh treat people at the moment,
mister Patty John. Yeah, for Julie, uh huh.

Speaker 2 (19:17):
Gretchen. Yeah. Now when you when you come back and
listen to this, you're going to find out that Gretchen
is coming back to Oklahoma.

Speaker 3 (19:26):
It's nice.

Speaker 2 (19:26):
Yeah, yeah. But you know, if you ever, if you
ever get across, if you ever get across the pond,
come to Oklahoma.

Speaker 3 (19:34):
Yeah, are you? I wish it too? That it's really expensive, Yeah, chick,
it is. What's around eight hundred dollars two thousands ullas?

Speaker 2 (19:50):
Yeah, she's cheap. You know what.

Speaker 1 (19:53):
Styton and Michelle are getting ready to head over across
the pond. I'll have to find out how close they're
going to be to you and I will tell State
and if there's any way that he can fire off
a phone call or something when he gets over that.
I can't remember what countries are going to.

Speaker 2 (20:11):
Wow, that'd be I want to go over there to you.
I want to.

Speaker 3 (20:18):
Some people think that Amsterdam is in Sweden in the
United States, and that's really funny.

Speaker 2 (20:31):
Why is that funny, because it's not. Amsterdam is not
in Sweden.

Speaker 3 (20:36):
No, no, no, it's in It's the capital city of
the Netherlands.

Speaker 2 (20:41):
Oh well, I see. If you listen to our podcast,
you learn something new every day. By the way, people
Amsterdam is in the Netherlands, and is it Netherlands or Netherlands.

Speaker 3 (20:55):
We call it needle LANs Netherlands. Most people call it
the Netherlands the Lowlands. That never means low of course,
most of my countries below the ocean.

Speaker 2 (21:12):
Oh oh, that's interesting. So what's the weather like right now?
There's time a year for.

Speaker 3 (21:16):
You at the moment. We had rain yesterday so today
for you, yes, but it was only light and now
we are having a very hot and humid day. We

(21:38):
was nothing but rain and lightning and such.

Speaker 2 (21:42):
What's what? What's hot? What's hot for you?

Speaker 3 (21:47):
Around thirty? See?

Speaker 2 (21:52):
Okay, well in fahrenheit I'm trying to.

Speaker 1 (21:57):
Todd's converting on his phone.

Speaker 2 (21:59):
Now that would be eighty six for us, which is more.

Speaker 1 (22:03):
That's about what. Yeah, but we're we're sitting kind of around.
I mean, yeah, I think we got up in the
eighties today.

Speaker 2 (22:10):
Well, yeah, we had a cold spell come through.

Speaker 3 (22:13):
Yeah, and what what the problem is in my country
is it's very humid? Dan, do you meant this year sixty?

Speaker 2 (22:25):
Oh that's a lot.

Speaker 3 (22:26):
Yeah, it's not fun.

Speaker 2 (22:31):
We got air conditioning right? What you got air conditioning
right in the house?

Speaker 3 (22:37):
No? What? No? Ninety of our homes are really old
before World War One and sometimes even from the Middle Ages.

Speaker 2 (22:51):
So no, really, wow, Well, slap a windows, swear it out.

Speaker 3 (22:59):
So we have fans, electric fans. Yeah, that's what we
have to of course. Windows.

Speaker 2 (23:09):
Yeah. Okay, So note to self, don't go see Jeffrey
in August like maybe September October maybe something like that.

Speaker 3 (23:18):
The best time is to get to the islands, of course,
is in spring. Sure in autumn might change. Yeah, well,
of course we have a lot of rain. We have
sixty four present rain a year, which is a lot.

Speaker 2 (23:38):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (23:39):
You sounds like Washington and Oregon.

Speaker 2 (23:41):
Yeah, say, because a lot of those houses up there,
brand new houses, don't have air conditioning, and they just.

Speaker 1 (23:47):
Wonder how I wonder how they align on the on
the horizontal line.

Speaker 2 (23:53):
The latitude longitude. Yeah, they'll be the same event, I
got a glory done it.

Speaker 3 (24:02):
You learn to cope with it really well. I mean,
and because we have rained a lot, we really appreciate
the song.

Speaker 2 (24:09):
Oh yeah, you're talking Curtis language.

Speaker 1 (24:12):
Yeah, talking my language there. Hey real quick, let's get
into uh. I want to do this real quick. So
the next few things we're going to be talking about.
We know that your mom was born and grew up
in the sixties, but she was a teenager in the
seventies and then you came along later. But for our episode,

(24:36):
we want to talk about the best years, which are
the seventies and why is that, you guys, because that.

Speaker 2 (24:41):
Was the greatest decade note to me who twenty four
minutes in. I had to squeeze that in, so Curtis.

Speaker 1 (24:53):
Yeah, so now we can talk about all about the seventies.

Speaker 2 (24:57):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (24:58):
So I had some questions real quick, like what, like,
let's say, movie wise, do you do you get to
watch a lot of movies from the US from the seventies.

Speaker 3 (25:11):
Yeah, of course they're still really popular. Of course, as
you know, I grew up with videotapes, so I had
a lot of movies and series from the seventies. One
of the biggest is Bussy and Adrian, which is a

(25:31):
children's show which is still extremely popular even though it
ended in the seventies. Oh wow, And yeah, so.

Speaker 1 (25:44):
Do you have do you have some favorite American seventies
movies that you really like.

Speaker 3 (25:50):
Other than The Cheerleaders? Oooh, there are so many.

Speaker 1 (26:01):
Have we seen the Cheerleaders?

Speaker 3 (26:04):
Yeah?

Speaker 1 (26:05):
I asked him, Todd if we've seen the Cheerleader?

Speaker 2 (26:08):
Don't I don't. I don't recognize the name the Cheerleader.

Speaker 3 (26:13):
Yeah, the Cheerleaders from in nineteen seventy three. Huh, it's
erotic comedy.

Speaker 1 (26:23):
I bet it was a drive in movie here and Enid,
I'll almost bet you no.

Speaker 3 (26:28):
When what I knew it wasn't tear us, but maybe
not in all states.

Speaker 2 (26:35):
Huh, yeah, there it is right there. I don't I
don't recognize it.

Speaker 3 (26:39):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (26:40):
Does it look like a drive in movie?

Speaker 2 (26:42):
Yeah, he's he's yeah, it's kind of a B movie.
Yeah yeah.

Speaker 1 (26:47):
And did you say it's kind of erotic. Yeah, yeah, Well.

Speaker 3 (26:53):
I think it's more funny than eroti.

Speaker 2 (26:55):
Okay, okay. The sequel to it is called The Swinging Cheerleader.

Speaker 1 (26:59):
Oh there, it's has it.

Speaker 2 (27:02):
Has spawned multiple sequels. Yeah. Yeah, but then.

Speaker 3 (27:10):
We're going to the eighties and we don't know that.

Speaker 2 (27:15):
Yeah.

Speaker 3 (27:18):
Yeah, Jaws was is fun. What else? Oh, we got
so a lot of movies we gathered from the US.
A lot of culture blows over from the US to
the Netherlands. Of course. Actually, I live close to the

(27:42):
United States. What do you call it? Military base? Yeah,
it's a half hour riding with a car from me.
When I listened to the radio and I primate just
for I got a Yeah, radio stations from the United States.

Speaker 1 (28:05):
Oh that's cool.

Speaker 2 (28:07):
Really yeah, wow, like on satellite or something or.

Speaker 3 (28:13):
No, no, I think the bass cats it from satellite. Oh,
then they push it out to the rest of I
did not.

Speaker 2 (28:28):
Yeah, I see, well that's cool.

Speaker 3 (28:31):
Yeah, it's really cool.

Speaker 1 (28:35):
What about music? What do you have any favorite seventies bands?

Speaker 2 (28:39):
Uh?

Speaker 1 (28:39):
And I do?

Speaker 3 (28:41):
I do a Caissey in the Sunshine.

Speaker 1 (28:44):
Band o.

Speaker 3 (28:48):
Nazara. Yeah, well I got a lot of LPs.

Speaker 1 (28:56):
I was I was going to ask you if you did,
so that's cool. Do you have quite a few nasty
with albums?

Speaker 3 (29:04):
I even have? Of course Todd's favorite, which I lang on?
Right now? What's your favorite?

Speaker 2 (29:20):
Mine? Yeah? Favorite Nazareth song?

Speaker 3 (29:25):
No, no, no favorite band?

Speaker 2 (29:28):
Okay, so I'm torn. I really really really like Thin Lizzie,
but I mean, you gotta go with you know, you
got the Eagles, you got Fleetwood Mac. But I mean
I I think maybe I kind of leaned towards Thin
Lizzie a little bit more, just because not very many

(29:48):
other people do. Uh soon Yeah, So I'm thinking, I'm thinking,
if I had to pick one, I think it might
be Thin Lizzie. But I love all the other guys.
I love all the.

Speaker 1 (30:04):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (30:07):
Oh yeah, yeah yeah, Alan Parsons of course, sure, yeah, yeah,
go from that to which one?

Speaker 3 (30:17):
It is what we call records?

Speaker 2 (30:18):
Which which one did you get? I Robot turn of
a friendly card. Uh, the pyramid one. There's a bunch
of them. There's a bunch of them, and they're all good,
all good stuff. Yeah.

Speaker 1 (30:37):
And if you listen to the show, you know mine
is Fleetwood Mac put Fleetwood Market. Yeah, and then for me,
Boston is like just half a notch right behind Fleetwood Mac.

Speaker 2 (30:51):
So it's hard to it's hard. It's almost it's almost
not fair to ask.

Speaker 1 (30:57):
It's like your favorite kid.

Speaker 2 (31:01):
Yeah, we're not going there, uh, because I'd get in
trouble from somebody.

Speaker 1 (31:09):
No do you do? So you're admitting you have a
favorite kid.

Speaker 2 (31:13):
No, of course not. We all do. Just kidding.

Speaker 1 (31:18):
So another question I got for you, do you collect
anything from the seventies.

Speaker 3 (31:25):
Records? Of course, when a friend of mine passed away,
I got all his records.

Speaker 1 (31:34):
Oh cool.

Speaker 3 (31:36):
And then from another friend, I got all his records
because it's recordsly a brooke and I got his records,
which was nice. And one of the records was well Sherry,
which was really honest.

Speaker 2 (31:53):
What was it?

Speaker 3 (31:55):
Well she Sherry?

Speaker 2 (31:56):
Oh wild cherry, Oh wild Cherry? Oh yeah?

Speaker 3 (31:59):
Funky music?

Speaker 1 (32:00):
Yeah?

Speaker 2 (32:00):
Okay?

Speaker 3 (32:03):
He do you die good too?

Speaker 2 (32:13):
Stayton?

Speaker 1 (32:15):
Hope you mark that down. We got Jeffrey singing.

Speaker 2 (32:20):
That has to be our first call or call in.
That's actually a song.

Speaker 1 (32:25):
Maybe.

Speaker 2 (32:25):
So even even when we talked to Casey from Casey
in the Sunshine Band, he didn't sing. He didn't sing,
He was kind of a bump log.

Speaker 3 (32:33):
Anyway, he's a cool guy. He actually really loves my country.

Speaker 1 (32:40):
Oh yeah, that's cool.

Speaker 3 (32:42):
Yeah, it's I watched an interview and he said my
country is one of his most favorite countries.

Speaker 1 (32:49):
Wowesome. I think you know he's still touring. I wonder
if he tours outside of the United States anymore.

Speaker 2 (32:55):
He's back in Oklahoma here pretty soon, I don't think so.

Speaker 1 (33:00):
Well, he got older. Yeah, he's come in Oklahoma. So
if you can make a trip here, we'll take you
to see Casey in the Sunshine Band. By by golly,
it'll only be like a thousand dollars ticket to fly
over and go see a concert.

Speaker 2 (33:18):
Yeah, but you could stay here for nothing. You know,
you don't have to pay for room and board.

Speaker 1 (33:22):
Heck, wait, even buy dinner at Callahan's.

Speaker 3 (33:25):
Got to go to Callahan it would be nice and
they don't eat much.

Speaker 1 (33:29):
So so I talked to Jeffrey earlier today. We did
a zoom call where we got to talk to each
other and see each other. And he was showing me
lots of the food that they eat over there, and
there's a stew that he makes it. I think you
would like the stew or this. I guess it's a stew, Yeah,
that you guys make. I think Todd would like that.

Speaker 2 (33:51):
What is it?

Speaker 3 (33:52):
It's called in Limburgian, which is the dialect we speak
and learn at school. It's called zoolflesh in Dutchess zu flish.
In English it's Limburgi and sour meat stew.

Speaker 1 (34:12):
I know it doesn't sound appetizing.

Speaker 3 (34:14):
Sour meat, Yeah, because it's pickled. It's made of pickled meat.
You brine it for a couple of hours and then
you do it and if the meat is so tender
that it's melts in your mouth. Originally it was made
from horse meat, but because cow meat called cheaper, we

(34:38):
make it now with our meat. So, yeah, the recipe,
if you want it.

Speaker 1 (34:48):
Sure, I've got it. I'll copy it and give it
to him.

Speaker 2 (34:52):
So I have to brandes meat and stuff. Sounds like
a process.

Speaker 3 (34:57):
Yeah, it takes around three hours to pickle and well
then it's yeah, making it putting in all ingredients. What
if the secret ingredients which wasn't in the recipe. It's
called apple stool, which is a thick syrup made of apple, oh,

(35:21):
which we put on literally everything. Oh wow, it's it's
really popular. Do you have the US have something like it?
It's called apple butter.

Speaker 2 (35:33):
Oh yeah, apple butter.

Speaker 1 (35:35):
We got apple butter.

Speaker 2 (35:36):
Oh yeah, we love apple.

Speaker 3 (35:37):
Yeah, it's it's kind of similia, not not really similar,
but it's in the same boat park as you say, do.

Speaker 1 (35:45):
You guys, Do you guys have any United States fast
food restaurants in your town?

Speaker 3 (35:50):
Okay, in my city we have four of them. We
have Condict Fried Chicken. Of course, Donald's Barker King, which
is much popular than McDonald's hair in my country because
it's well one hundred times better. And we have I

(36:13):
believe one Wendy.

Speaker 2 (36:16):
There you go.

Speaker 1 (36:17):
Interesting.

Speaker 3 (36:19):
Yeah, we had dunkin Donuts, but well that when it's.

Speaker 2 (36:23):
Up, Yeah, I think they went it's up everywhere, didn't it?

Speaker 1 (36:30):
No, not everywhere.

Speaker 3 (36:32):
We still have two than half then the day, as
you call it, Yeah, very cool.

Speaker 2 (36:44):
Yeah, so we need to get.

Speaker 3 (36:45):
Over when it comes to the seventies. In one country,
my country was uh. Well, of course, as you know,
we are a monarchy. It's a kingdom of the Netherlands,
so we got a king, a royal family. Then it
was a queen, but she abdicated her throne for her son,

(37:12):
which most are not really a fan of because it's
a really yeah, it doesn't matter.

Speaker 2 (37:22):
You don't want to get kicked out of the country.

Speaker 3 (37:24):
No, no, they're no, well he isn't really that much
like then we got during the seventies, we got a
cabinet because well, we are not an absolute monarchy, so
the monarch doesn't rule anymore. Well technically he does. Is

(37:47):
a bit complicated, but uh. And the prime minister. So
I think our president was the cock. Uh, which sounds
funny to you Americans.

Speaker 2 (38:05):
Of course here's the king.

Speaker 3 (38:08):
Did we write it with k O kah means cook
ah dodge not cork. One. One very famous also from
the seventies, wrote a book called Banger, named after himself, Blancher,

(38:34):
and the protagonist is an old man called the cock
with CEO c K and his best friend is called
Dick with the I c K, which, of course this hilarious,
that's funny. Yeah, anyway, Uh, and they called it the

(38:59):
purple cabin yet because the Rats and the Blues were
in it together, so purple. It was a progressive government
and I'm not so progressive country, which worked because it

(39:22):
was both traditional and progressive at the same time. And
it made a boom, a baby boom, of course, just
like in the US after the war, people got groovy
and lots of babies. Yeah, my mom was one of them.

Speaker 1 (39:48):
So do you have any brothers and sisters?

Speaker 3 (39:51):
Only half brothers because my dad, well my birth parents,
I would say, he uh, well, he peemed outside of
the toilet, so he got the neighbor pregnant and dan

(40:22):

Speaker 2 (40:23):

times over there.

months and then he's straight.

Speaker 2 (40:40):

The city neighborhood is called Mulberry, which means mill hill.
Well male mountain, but we do only have one mountain
in the Netherlands, Old Vals of Bash, which means mountain
of falls. Anyway, n Yeah, the disco was really popular.

(45:25):
My mom went a lot to discos. I only got
to go once before it close because of violins and
drugs which ruin absolutely everything.

Speaker 2 (45:39):
I don't I don't think of people in the Netherlands
being violent. It just seems to me like they're all
nice books.

Speaker 3 (45:46):
The Turkish and Moroccans in Turkish mafia really has happen
throughout my country, which that's too bad.

Speaker 2 (46:01):
Really, well, well, anything else, anything else before we let
you go.

Speaker 3 (46:07):
Jeffrey, Oh well, this bath is still popular at parties.
Of course, there's the music is to you. A lot
of well seventies bands are still played on the radio,
although people really listen to the radio anymore. Ye, mostly

(46:32):
because of television, of course, because television killed the radio
start exactly.

Speaker 2 (46:38):
Actually it was video video MTV.

Speaker 3 (46:42):
MTV was all yeah, what more seventies, fashion is really
coming back.

Speaker 2 (46:51):
Uh.

Speaker 3 (46:53):
Of course, flass or bell bottoms.

Speaker 1 (46:56):
We called them everywhere, but.

Speaker 3 (47:00):
Also the collars, the shoes, the big big platoo.

Speaker 2 (47:08):
Shoes, platform shoes.

Speaker 3 (47:10):
Yeah, that's called really short skirts are really in now too,
nice boy beans and hotpants, which I don't mind at all.

Speaker 2 (47:27):
Who doesn't like a nice pair of heart pants?

Speaker 3 (47:30):
Yeah, not for guys.

Speaker 2 (47:31):
Though, we were assuming No yeah, no.

Speaker 3 (47:36):
No, no, not a fan of that. Yeah, uh, I
don't know that. In the seventies and early eighties, my
city got our own serial killer, oh yeah, called the

(47:56):
Strangler of Hair. Then he murdered crossity. It's six in total,
and he was never called.

Speaker 1 (48:03):
Oh yeah, it sounds like a podcast to me.

Speaker 2 (48:09):
Hey, there you go.

Speaker 3 (48:10):
Yeah, there actually a podcast which went about it called
Conspiracy Files.

Speaker 1 (48:19):
I have to look that up.

Speaker 2 (48:21):
We don't.

Speaker 3 (48:24):
Oh well, it was in the two thousands. But one
of the politicians was assassinated.

Speaker 2 (48:33):
Fashionating.

Speaker 3 (48:34):
Yeah. He was a right wing politician and he saw
that the country wasn't really going well and well then
he was assassinated by left wing Do you call it
someone who protests protester? Yeah, yeah, by an animal rights protester,

(49:00):
and then there were riots and.

Speaker 1 (49:04):
Wow, all the typical stuff we got over here sounds
like pretty much.

Speaker 3 (49:12):
I uh well, a lot of school teachers were left wing,
so I was told to hate him because he was
even far right, spooky right.

Speaker 1 (49:26):
And wow, yeah, we may have to get you on
the Buzzhead radio episode to talk about all that stuff.

Speaker 3 (49:33):
There you go, Yeah maybe next year.

Speaker 1 (49:37):
Yeah. Perfect.

Speaker 3 (49:40):
But the seventies, my mom told, of course, it was
a simple time. I said, no, technology, of course, no.
The first technology, do you really was? Of course, well,

(50:07):
racket players, which cars because a lot of American cars
then because we only have one car factory, and was
a bit child.

Speaker 1 (50:21):
Did you guys have did she have eight tracks? Did
you guys have eight tracks over there?

Speaker 3 (50:26):
No? No, that really didn't get popular hair. What good
popular hair was really fast was tapes, music tapes.

Speaker 1 (50:40):
The cassettes.

Speaker 3 (50:42):
Yeah, sad, and those went on long into the nineties
and into the early two thousands. Actually we got CDs
really late.

Speaker 2 (50:59):
Huh yeah. Wow.

Speaker 3 (51:04):
Well, and then of course the computer came, and well
in ninety eight I got my very first computer.

Speaker 2 (51:16):
That's about when I got that thing.

Speaker 3 (51:19):
Almost the whole morning to get on and you would
push the button would floppy inside it and it would
take eight hours to load.

Speaker 1 (51:35):
Oh my, how the mour.

Speaker 3 (51:39):
So I went to school and when I got back
from school, that was when the computer was finally ready.

Speaker 1 (51:45):
That is crazy, bad, right.

Speaker 3 (51:49):
And now we got a computer. You touched the button
and three seconds later you can get on.

Speaker 1 (51:57):
Yeah, wow, that is crazy.

Speaker 2 (52:00):
It's crazy.

Speaker 1 (52:01):
Okay, man, we're going to have to go ahead.

Speaker 3 (52:06):
But first we got really clunky, huge telephones which you
needed to touch and then it went, and then you
needed to get another number and another number, And now
we have a telephone which we can use for everything.

Speaker 2 (52:30):
Yeah, but it's not as cool as the seventies.

Speaker 1 (52:33):
Yeah, seventies. Seventies phones were the coolest, especially especially with
the long cord to the handheld and strong thing.

Speaker 3 (52:43):
So it's funny. It's a thing you don't really hear
much about the eighties and the sixties when it comes
to technology. The technology from the seventies was really iconic.

Speaker 1 (52:57):
Oh yeah.

Speaker 3 (53:00):
With music, really, eighties music here was kind of bad. Really.
Of course metal got really big, which I'm a fan of,
but not much eighties metal really, it was a bit
na a bit Koby pasted but the seventies got really

(53:26):
good music. I think it's because of the turmoil in
that in those times.

Speaker 1 (53:32):
Really, I agree, the best music ever. Huh yeah, best music.

Speaker 3 (53:43):
Okay, gets great music. I don't know if you know this,
but my country had a lot of minds cold mines,
to be precise.

Speaker 1 (53:56):
He did not know that.

Speaker 3 (53:58):
Yeah, and my grandfather, God Rest, his soul was a miner.
A lot of people were in their south, so was
mining country. And well he died on his way to
the mines. He was an early adapt of the scooter.

(54:21):
And well he got hit by a car. Oh no,
well it went from that to worse because he was
flew off, threw off by the car and he landed
with his hat on the pavement and his call.

Speaker 2 (54:37):
Correct open a bummer.

Speaker 3 (54:40):
Yeah, but he was killed instantly. He so that that anyway,
So the minds had a huge impact on the seventies life.
A lot of people didn't have electricity yet, and so
he used coal to coop, dryer clothes, boil water. And

(55:01):
my mother said, we had a huge what we called
it in English, We called it a boot, which is
sort of kind of a metal barrow which you put
water in. And that's where they washed because we also

(55:23):
didn't have showers. We didn't even have lavatories in the bathroom.
You needed to go outside to go to the lavatory
or to Detroit it. Yeah.

Speaker 1 (55:40):
Interesting. Hey, we're gonna have to let you go and
get some sleep. We're about to run out of time
on our end over here. But we appreciate you staying
