We've got guy from Chicago, and we have the Association.

Speaker 3 (03:24):

Speaker 1 (03:46):
It's gonna be a blast.
Speaker 8 (03:48):
Uh.
Speaker 3 (03:49):
One of the surprises is that Gary Pucket and we
the councils, have decided to switch. It's for the summer, and.
Speaker 9 (03:58):
The councils will be not only not opening, we won't
be opening, we won't be ending. We're having our own
set right after the end of Happy Together. Everything will
be different.
Speaker 1 (04:09):
I'm just kidding. We do get to open, Okay, Polly,
we will open opening. We're opening. Guys. We've been told
we're never leaving, and we're like, we're happy about that.
Speaker 3 (04:20):
We're trying to guess with Chicago songs because there really
are more than you think. Yeah, twenty before, if the
guy can still belt it out. Now, I'm sum in
ten years with Chicago and I think a year or
two of blood, sweat and tears even.
Speaker 1 (04:34):
Yeah, I'm thinking it's going to go like this.
Speaker 3 (04:36):
That's major lead singing as time goes.
Speaker 1 (04:40):
All do that, I'll color my world. I'll bet that, Jason.
Speaker 3 (04:51):
There are twenty two ballots in the show.
Speaker 2 (04:53):
Okay, I was walking down yes, stress one.
Speaker 8 (04:57):
Day, okay, absolutely, and then you know, oh, Saturday in
the Park, absolutely going to be.
Speaker 2 (05:18):
In that line.
Speaker 3 (05:19):
What are the one the Bucks do the Bucking Hymns.
Speaker 1 (05:21):
Saturday Chicago the cover Saturday. Yeah yeah yeah, Carligo, you
kill it.
Speaker 3 (05:28):
But yeah, yeah, you can see the Bucking Hamps with
that horn section live man, that's the Bucking Man right there. Yeah,
with that horn section.
Speaker 1 (05:38):
Yeah, that's Chicago because they are Chicago.
Speaker 5 (05:41):
The Buck and right yeah, all those guys have the
same vibe like Nola Funk.
Speaker 1 (05:46):
Guys all feel the same. All the Chicago horn bands,
they all have that soul soul voice they know, So we.
Speaker 2 (05:54):
Don't really know. Like the Fortunes, they're they're coming out
as a four piece. Is there any original Fortunes?
Speaker 5 (06:02):
Let me look around while we're out pod here, see
if we got originals Okay, in the Fortunes.
Speaker 1 (06:10):
Yep, the band the Fortunes, I'm going to say.
Speaker 3 (06:15):
Four of them, and there's four trot Was it the trogs? Yes,
it was because there's two main trogs, but they have
to bring two other trogs with them. Now that listen,
here's what we're going to commit to guys, listen to
this idea. No, we've got a great idea. We are
going to clear all of this up because you know what,
We're going to reach out to every one of these
(06:36):
new guys and get them on the podcast before the
tour and we're going to shake them down. Okay, and
we're going to get all the skinny right, good playing, Yes, tay.
Speaker 5 (06:45):
Guys, Yes, guys twenty According to Okay, yes, the band
the Fortunes has original members performing to this day. Words Well,
the lineup has changed significantly over the years. The original
members in nineteen six, Oh wait a minute, that's no, No,
(07:05):
it was manipulative verbage.
Speaker 3 (07:07):
Yeah, there's no There might be one. I can't remember
who it was, but i'd have to check it to confirm.
Speaker 2 (07:12):
That current.
Speaker 1 (07:14):
You're no longer original lineup just went down the line.
Speaker 3 (07:18):
And you know what that says. That says what a
great song that you've got your troubles is. That's what
That's how this too operates, folks. That's the songs we
know it because if these guys know you've got your troubles,
then we saw the vogues do it. You do it
for a reason, and that's how it works.
Speaker 4 (07:35):
We do it.
Speaker 1 (07:36):
We do it for a reason though, like we make
it one of our songs in our set.
Speaker 3 (07:41):
Because to be great, they're gonna sing our favorite songs. Honestly,
I know the two trog songs. I'm not familiar with
the third. But Little Anthony had a song I didn't know,
Jam the Americas and that don't.
Speaker 1 (07:52):
Lock the Door I Little Antonio right right.
Speaker 3 (07:56):
You know it seems we all have hits that didn't
get to each other.
Speaker 5 (08:00):
Yeah, yeah, yeah, this is wild though, I know and
it is okay, So our Chicago guy he is. He's
been the Chicago singer for many years, but he is
not necessarily the original Chicago guy.
Speaker 2 (08:12):
Is that correct, right?
Speaker 3 (08:13):
Jason was saying for ten years. I think he ended
up in twenty nineteen was his last year singing lead
for Chicago, I think. But like I said, we'll have
him on, will ask him. But I think it's funny
that the guy said we're going to have four people
with the Fortunes for with the Trogs and the laundry.
Speaker 1 (08:36):
Rob's going to be one held.
Speaker 3 (08:37):
The third of the newest fans who probably when they
played live had eighteen people on stage, is coming out
alone Jason Chef with Chicago and it's like, you think
he'd come with No, he's coming with eight people. They go, well,
of course, Chicago, Chicago.
Speaker 2 (08:52):
Do we think Do we think the Association are coming
out with just Jules and Paul?
Speaker 1 (08:57):
That's what I think. I know that Delhi isn't coming,
and I'm going to text him and see how he's doing.
Speaker 2 (09:04):
I don't want it'll be funny if the keyboard kid
who's Jordan, he actually is no.
Speaker 1 (09:12):
Longer with the Association PAULI isn't that interesting? I read
that online. Dad the kid is no longer with them,
and I think we know why he was not necessarily happy.
Speaker 3 (09:24):
What. No, you don't think it's a Jim Yester resurrection,
do you?
Speaker 4 (09:28):
No?
Speaker 1 (09:29):
No, no way you can find out.
Speaker 5 (09:32):
I can find out in a hot minute if there's
a Jim Yester resurrection.
Speaker 1 (09:36):
Anybody wanted me to do it?
Speaker 3 (09:38):
No?
Speaker 5 (09:39):
Actually, hey, why don't we Why don't we Jimmy on
after kind of semi retirement?
Speaker 1 (09:45):
See how why don't we have Jimmy on? Jim Yester?
Speaker 2 (09:48):
Perfect? We could have Jewels on and have him tell
us what he knows.
Speaker 1 (09:53):
Yeah, okay, but who was I going to do? We
can tell us that Jim yes, there to see and.
Speaker 3 (10:00):
Complicated, but we're gonna see Jewels on December twenty eighth,
which we'll talk about people in a minute, because we
really get sidetracked here on these sidebars. But they are
a lot of fun. We're all excited about the summer
tour and it's only November because there's just it's just
gonna be a little different, and it's gonna be a
little crowded, okay, and because well we all love crowds.
Speaker 5 (10:20):
Not well, I just like I said, the laundry room
at the mini hotels we stay at are going to
be even moreling with just.
Speaker 3 (10:27):
With just with the Trons and the Fortunes alone. There
are now instead of two lead singers in line for
the washing machine, there's eight people. It's like just with
two of the bands and there's eight bands.
Speaker 5 (10:40):
Hey, should I text he will not be named, and go, FYI,
our laundry line just got bigger by eight people. Me,
Bob and follower on the podcast talking and we're just
realized that our laundry line.
Speaker 1 (10:56):
He'll laughing he did.
Speaker 3 (10:59):
It and also call when you do it, says ask him. Hey,
Bob and Paul, I want to know if if we
can let the trogs know about offering them flushing, fold
and wash and fold what laundry services on the job.
Speaker 1 (11:13):
No, we'll lose our privileges.
Speaker 10 (11:16):
Yeah, I think Ronald come back at you, Susan, and
he'll go He'll go, well we've got fluff and fold
fluff well, baby, hey.
Speaker 1 (11:26):
And then we'll know at least word secure for the summer.
Speaker 5 (11:28):
So I'll go ahead and shoot this ant ho nor okay,
I want to just say me and the boys were
just thinking, we're going to be eight people more in
the laundry line at the motels.
Speaker 3 (11:39):
We're gonna it's like and I'm thinking of wild Thing
and I'm trying and you know, we're gonna love all
these new acts because that's what always happens every summer.
But right now, yeah, I'm thinking wild Thing, Like, Okay,
I can imitate the guy's voice I say wild Think
as much as he did from pubs singing. You know, yeah,
wild Thing comes up to me. It's like a more vocals,
(12:01):
single lead vocal and I don't hear a lot of
harmonies with the four people that are coming. You know something, Well,
they're not like them papas, They're not like the birds.
They're they're the truth.
Speaker 1 (12:13):
We usually stay.
Speaker 3 (12:14):
They had the ballad, which is beautiful, but it's said
in the air love is all the round us.
Speaker 1 (12:21):
Yeah, that's a beautiful stuffing, great sound.
Speaker 3 (12:24):
Yeah it's beautiful, but.
Speaker 6 (12:26):
In express Susan we say it those a lot do
some Hampton's Hampton.
Speaker 1 (12:33):
Expresses what I was looking for. He's gonna laugh so hard.
Speaker 3 (12:37):
I'm going to ask the guy in the trucks, like, Okay,
you're one to four. What'd you say to the fourth
fourth guys like, hey, we're the Trucks. We need a
fourth vocalist. Because if the guy doesn't say you don't
need a fourth vocalist, it'll be fun fun, Okay.
Speaker 6 (12:54):
It had to be interesting though, when the Trocks manager
or whoever the people and and you know, he's talking
to Ron and he goes, yeah, you know we got
to come out as a four piece, you know, and
just like Ron at the like you know, I can't imagine.
Speaker 5 (13:11):
Well here, okay, yes, it was a lot. I bet
there were a lot of things. I bet Ron went, okay,
I'll do it. Okay, say, mister Trog.
Speaker 3 (13:21):
The councils went from eight to three, surely you can
go to four to one.
Speaker 1 (13:28):
I would say this.
Speaker 3 (13:30):
I got to tell you, if the t I said
this about hating the Americans and conter me and my
or you know, their their big song, the Trogs, if
I think, especially the especially the shows where the lobby's
open for two hours before the show. By the time
the Trocks hit wild thing this, the room's gonna collapse
or something. It's gonna be, it's gonna be. It can
(13:53):
go one way or the other.
Speaker 1 (13:55):
Look, we've never had a wild thing. I can't remember
we had a thing. No, no, like something that would
bring the old house.
Speaker 3 (14:03):
The only thing, the only thing I could equate it
to is I played at a pub for many years,
three years and wipe out, which is something when everyone
was drunk on the guitar. You're a singer. What are
you doing wipe out for? But guess everybody's drug single
started and he got in from the pub because at
the drum part, you know, fifty eight drum bubbers became
(14:24):
a drummer and broke all the tables and chairs one
night and they banned it from the pub. Wipe out
his band, So that that's this kind of thing. But
that is funny. But I can't wait to hear you've
got your troubles whatever, Chicago ones, I'm good to go.
You know that's gonna be great.
Speaker 1 (14:44):
I'm telling he read it, you guys, uh nor read
the text.
Speaker 5 (14:47):
So I said, I'm letting him know where we love
him and we're excited for the summer.
Speaker 3 (14:52):
Oh my goodness. Well, listen, you are have an opportunity, folks,
and they have to not make the Happy Together tour.
Anyone who cannot you know, get it there in the summer.
We are bringing exactly what now is three eighths of
the tour to Saint Charles, Illinois December twenty eighth, with
the Vogues, the Association and the Costles playing on the
(15:15):
same gig a Night of American Harmony at the Arcada Theater,
and we want to see everybody there December twenty eighth.
You can get inkling of what they Happy Together show
is all about and talk to some of the artists.
Speaker 1 (15:27):
The Yeah, that's a pretty good what's going on?
Speaker 3 (15:31):
Yeah, it'll be fun and see a longer show from
each act rather than what are now the one and
a half songs that we're each going to do in
the summer.
Speaker 2 (15:40):
Okay, three songs we're only doing thirty minutes in Chicago.
Speaker 3 (15:45):
And a lot more, guys, did you catch this? It's
like and just so guys, just you know, all the
coustiles on the Happy Together Tour have been asked to do.
It's like in the beginning that first of us, shut up,
you're talking too much, and then so we cut back time.
Shut up, Hey could you cheat? You like not just
just do your songs? Okay, so we do that, Hey,
could you take out another song? Okay, we'll take out
(16:08):
we can fly do that. And now in today's call,
I said, well Chicago, well there we might get four
and already I'm going four.
Speaker 2 (16:18):
Two.
Speaker 3 (16:19):
Yeah, that's going on here. You know, we got to
make the rookies happy.
Speaker 5 (16:27):
Just think about that first night coming out and going Hi, everybody, Holy.
Speaker 1 (16:32):
Cow, have we got a show for you?
Speaker 3 (16:35):
And you know it's funny. It's going to feel absolutely
normal to me to the end of hair and we
take our seats and then it.
Speaker 1 (16:44):
Is going to be beautiful. We are so lucky. We
get that's what the show. We're the lucky and we
get the assos back.
Speaker 5 (16:51):
Those are still our our complete, utter one first favorites
of the songs we love from our together experience. Ye,
Basel back some configuration. I'll find out from Lama why
he's sitting this out. And if that's the crew, you
know that's a rumor. It's from Dell. It's it is
(17:11):
rigorous and Lama is well, look there, you know we're
all getting old.
Speaker 6 (17:15):
Yeah. Yeah.
Speaker 1 (17:16):
Oh, speaking of which, Paul, would you like to report
a little bit on your present health status.
Speaker 6 (17:23):
Yeah, I'm doing well. Yeah, I have cancer. The cancer
is way on the back burners. Now everybody's off my back.
The hormone guy, my surgeon is so happy. I've been
hitting these zeros for almost a year a year actually
a year and uh and so then you know, I
had the aphib and so I went and took an
(17:46):
echo cardiogram ECG, and uh, we got the report back
today that said my heart's looking good.
Speaker 2 (17:55):
Everything is beautiful. And so then I was I wrote
them a little note going, well, what about shocking my heart?
Speaker 6 (18:01):
Because if I didn't tell anybody, so the A fifth
thing is happening, and so my cardiologist goes, man, we're
going to shock it back into rhythm. And so and
that's like a procedure a couple of hours and you
go under anesthesia and then they got they freaking shock you.
Speaker 2 (18:16):
And so when it goes back into rhythm, I hear
I'm going to be able to.
Speaker 6 (18:20):
Go, wow, I feel so much better and I'm going
to have like so much energy if it gets back
in because I hear it from everybody.
Speaker 2 (18:27):
Oh man, if that works, man, you're going to feel
like one hundred percent. That was pretty good.
Speaker 6 (18:32):
And they're going to go, no, you're going to feel
better than you feel. And I'm thinking, man, if I
can feel better, then I feel that's going to be insane.
So that happens on Tuesday, December eleventh or second something,
and then I'm going to have that thing shocked.
Speaker 3 (18:50):
And then it just cracks you up. The way they
talk about it's like, you're going to feel so great forgo.
All we have to do is make you unconscious and
shoot four hundred jewels of elect through your part and
you're gonna get a million bucks.
Speaker 2 (19:03):
Yeah, well, hopefully we don't kill you doing it.
Speaker 1 (19:06):
There's that.
Speaker 5 (19:06):
I'm sure there's some kind of ratio of percentage which
is so low we aren't even more.
Speaker 6 (19:11):
You know.
Speaker 2 (19:12):
With Shane, they tried to shock his heart.
Speaker 6 (19:14):
Back in and it didn't work, so he had to
have that asplasia, you know. And I said to Shane, oh, man,
that's a drag. He goes, yeah, but he feels that
this shocking is going to work really good on me,
because I'm not.
Speaker 2 (19:26):
I don't think I'm as far along.
Speaker 3 (19:28):
I don't know.
Speaker 1 (19:29):
I agree.
Speaker 3 (19:29):
I agree with him.
Speaker 5 (19:31):
I think it's probably in that state longer than you
have been.
Speaker 2 (19:34):
Yeah, I believe so.
Speaker 6 (19:35):
And it was I mean, he could feel his heart
pounded out of his chest and I have yet to
be able to feel my heart beat in my chest.
Speaker 2 (19:46):
I'm pushing in. I can't get it.
Speaker 1 (19:49):
Yeah, I know, I know that this is my place
to go in and we just like good stuff.
Speaker 2 (19:54):
And so yeah, so my medical is happening. It's a
beautiful thing. Man, It's groovy and.
Speaker 3 (20:00):
Uh yeah, I tell you people, we marvel at it
because if you've been with us long enough, we were
with Paul now two years ago, anyway, half at the
door in the dressing room, will the doctor on the
speakerphone telling him, and yes, you have you have cancer
(20:22):
of the prostrate. Your Gleason glean score is nine. And
all we know is Jackie Gleeson. And we're gonna find
not good. And it's aggressive and like, what do you
mean aggressive? Yes, it's shooting everywhere.
Speaker 1 (20:36):
Are sitting there, Oh my.
Speaker 3 (20:39):
God, what we're going to do to Simon and garfuf songs?
But but you know where the son is?
Speaker 1 (20:44):
What material are we going to take on?
Speaker 3 (20:46):
We were there, We were there and now and it's
like I would have died of anxiety. I just could
have hung in and handled his brain better because Paul
just Paul just bounces through it.
Speaker 5 (21:03):
Man, that PAULI that's really true, because Bob would everyone
you know, I mean, we love you, we talk about you,
you know, on the road.
Speaker 1 (21:09):
How do you get Bob? Would Jesus my ma.
Speaker 3 (21:14):
Back lounge again on the bus don't would not.
Speaker 1 (21:19):
Have been stoicly going through it.
Speaker 3 (21:22):
Bob, he asked the bus to pull over the pace anyway,
I got.
Speaker 2 (21:29):
All night.
Speaker 1 (21:29):
No, that's yeah, goodness.
Speaker 3 (21:32):
He's the guy. He's the guy that has this attitude
when they really are dying and you marvel at it.
But you had it all through. He might be dying,
which to me better. It's more of a marvel to
me because I collapsing.
Speaker 1 (21:45):
That's the worst version of the whole thing. By the
time you're dying, you already know you got to do it,
so you're kind of used. We're terrible. Look, please, y'all
just understand.
Speaker 5 (21:55):
We were well, We've dealt with a lot of death
and this is, unfortunately, how the council deal with it.
Speaker 1 (22:01):
A lot of times we like to bring in that
good old Irish humer.
Speaker 3 (22:04):
Okay, oh, you know, speaking of family, I don't know
how this this reached me and I read a lot
of his lyrics to you guys, cousin Fred Presley, have
you Curt he's got he made an album of the
regal songs that he just released it. Okay, Fred Presley,
you can just look up Fred Presley dot com and look, Fred.
(22:27):
We were I personally, my personal I was one night
at a pub where Fred was doing what I was
doing back at my home in California. We were both
at the same time distant pub singers. And you know,
I'm in front of him and his pub and just
kind of laying low because it's his pub, you know. Anyway,
saw what he was doing. He was really good, like
(22:49):
pub singers are. That's why wedding bands and pub singers
are usually pretty good, or they wouldn't be.
Speaker 1 (22:54):
Doing that very good.
Speaker 3 (22:57):
And now I'm just telling you I was so glad
to hear spot checking these songs. And he's got some
good lyrics and they're up there. You can read those,
and just read those first, even and then maybe we
should have old Cuzy, we should have Fred. Honestly, Fred
right on, and this this is very.
Speaker 2 (23:14):
All our selfish ways.
Speaker 3 (23:15):
Yes, yes, yes, okay, And this guy's been a lifelong
troubadour we'll call him, you know puff singer, you.
Speaker 1 (23:26):
Know, I mean for himself like us, you know, cover tunes.
Speaker 3 (23:29):
More than your own, probably wrote five thousand songs, you
know one you know that guy. You know all of
us are that way, you know, that's how it is.
Speaker 5 (23:37):
So yeah, but they always kept playing music and making
it just for himself. Because he wrote a song, he
records a song, much like us.
Speaker 3 (23:44):
And I heard I heard other things he recorded. I
know I did, but it's something called something. This is
a more let's have some.
Speaker 1 (23:52):
I'll let him know.
Speaker 3 (23:53):
Yeah, it's goody good lyrics. I don't know. That just
popped in because you said something that triggered it. But anyway,
that's what I saw. Uh, let's see. Oh, I gotta
tell you. You know, we've had the first film. Artie
Cornfeld is the only podcaster in one hundred and ninety
five episodes who's been on the Council's podcast three times.
Speaker 2 (24:17):
Yeah.
Speaker 6 (24:18):
Wow, that's a distinction, a distinction, And he should give
him a residency, a residency, a podcast Council residency.
Speaker 3 (24:27):
That's a great idea because he's asked to kind of
chat it up again because time. Yeah, he's our uncle
LARTI and he and he's really man when he keeps going,
you know, it's incredible. It's like you just sit there.
I feel like when he gets going on some of
his stories, I feel like the three of us figuratively
we've gone in a little semi circle cross legged in
(24:49):
front of Buffalarty and he's up on the people looking
down and done. This is what we did there? Then
is amazing.
Speaker 1 (24:58):
That is wonderful.
Speaker 3 (24:59):
You guys, you're like, I said, I'm not going to
have that, and I came with you and I paid
to get you in the studio, was like, yeah, what else? Then?
Speaker 1 (25:06):
What I tell you? What I tell you?
Speaker 3 (25:08):
What Ben?
Speaker 5 (25:09):
That would really thrill and Bob, if you hate him,
send him an email and say we want to have
a fireside chats with Uncle Arty.
Speaker 3 (25:16):
Or yeah, touch base. After the thanks that get him back,
he'll be on fire. Yeah, because it was so funny,
even our experience of having him on and knowing what
he did with us and everything in Woodstock. But then
we started reading words of Artie saying, hey, where's Neil
(25:36):
Young and Bond yet you know, why aren't they saying
hi to me? And stuff like that? Likes and me
Paul going, well, why did the heck does he think?
Neil Young owes him hello? And then you can't know
he was the first too, so maybe he's it was great.
Speaker 1 (25:58):
I mean, Artie is not a young but it is
easy to guide because if we have facts, we can
place him anywhere we want them and then yell to
us everything.
Speaker 3 (26:05):
Let me tell you this guy's memory. I don't care
what he shoots it through. It's it's sharp. He's got memories.
He's got memories that are amazing, amazing because in some
places with so many people, it's like, oh my god, yeah,
he is amazing.
Speaker 2 (26:22):
He keeps it all together. I don't know.
Speaker 1 (26:25):
I think it's what.
Speaker 3 (26:27):
Yeah, it's his file cabinet system is way better than
mine because he knows allah than I remember.
Speaker 5 (26:34):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (26:35):
Man, yeah, but when we weren't working with him, we
were the kids and he wasn't a young twenty something.
But you know what the back then that stand out,
you know, yep, that's it.
Speaker 1 (26:46):
Speaking of adults.
Speaker 5 (26:47):
Nor got back in his response to everything we sent him,
and I always send him a cute zoom photo when
we're saying we want to talk to him. He said,
keep those smiles coming. Kids, nor he who will not
be named.
Speaker 3 (27:01):
Oh oh nor okay, get it. Yeah, that's very good.
So that's like you would be uh, you're just Bob
unfortunately not be allowed on the team because I would
be bobb.
Speaker 1 (27:22):
You guys, I have a pet peeve that I really
want to share. And I even didn't write it down.
Speaker 3 (27:26):
It's so happened to have a pet peep go.
Speaker 5 (27:29):
Ahead, okay, or a gripe whatever we used to call them.
This one, and everybody's gonna go O me.
Speaker 3 (27:38):
One in.
Speaker 1 (27:39):
But uh, lately I'm really out appreciating it.
Speaker 5 (27:45):
When I get out of a shower and I go
to take a towel that will not absorb the water
off of my body.
Speaker 1 (27:56):
A new towel we got, it's new, and it has
this stuff on it that repels water. Are you familiar
with towel?
Speaker 3 (28:07):
I personally am their Foo food towels. They spread water,
they do not absorb water. They look beautiful, they have
beautiful colors, they hang well in the bathroom. They are useless.
Speaker 1 (28:17):
Thank you.
Speaker 5 (28:18):
And as a matter of fact of origin, and this
truly ties into what you just said, is it came
from my dear bestie Lindy Ryan, who came and her
husband and her stayed from Rhode Island, My best friend
from Saint Augustine's. They stayed in our cottage and she
bought the most damn cutest towels. They're periwinkle blue, beautiful.
Speaker 1 (28:41):
But they do not want water off my body.
Speaker 5 (28:45):
It's so crazy, and I've run into this and travel
and I'm like, what is this new phenomenon. It's like
the microfibers that are on some other useful that I
don't know what, maybe polishing your guitar or for.
Speaker 1 (28:58):
An interesting so anyway that tells that do not absorb water.
Speaker 3 (29:03):
I do think they're viewed as as upscale towels. I
do think they're viewed that way.
Speaker 5 (29:08):
You said, fruitfy. My buddy would not send me lousy towels.
She would send me upper skin. They're gorgeous and I
loved them until I tried to dry myself.
Speaker 1 (29:16):
Now, if she sends me a text in the next
few days.
Speaker 2 (29:18):
And good, maybe you just need to wash the sizing
out of it.
Speaker 1 (29:22):
Well we are we are yet round two still, so
that's where it being a little bit more.
Speaker 2 (29:29):
It's like soft water. When you shower with soft water,
it feels like it's like that you.
Speaker 3 (29:35):
Like a beautiful woman with a horrible personality. Yeah kind of, yeah,
I'm saying, see that.
Speaker 5 (29:43):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (29:44):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (29:46):
It's also after it's been used that then you find out,
oh this is what you're like. Oh good lord.
Speaker 1 (29:52):
Yeah no anyway, whatever, anyway, I feel better. I just
you're it.
Speaker 3 (29:57):
Here's mine, you know, I'm I really do love all
of the holiday and expresses and the Hampton and sweets,
any of the big hotels that don't have a restaurant
in the hotel, but they have free breakfast. And I
love the free breakfast because something is there that you'll
(30:18):
like even if you're down to those eggs come out
of the carton. But sometimes those eggs are real, or
that's fake bacon, or this is the experience of the
free breakfast. But there's always oatmeal and browse sugar and
raisins is always cereal, this healthy fruit that blah blah blah.
Speaker 1 (30:34):
Jeez.
Speaker 3 (30:34):
The only my pet peep of that whole operation is
that it takes forever to toast an English buffet. It
takes I've got to sucker that thing through, turn it high,
and put it through two or three times before we
will finally toast to a level where the company thinks,
(30:55):
I it will be my fault if I burn myself. Well,
he put it through four times, because when you put
it through one time, you're not gonna be able to
butter it even And they're all like that, you guys,
whether it's a bagel or a toast or an englesh muffin,
what are they using our toaster? If the toasters like that,
(31:16):
belt wants to let it go, I know you can
turn it up.
Speaker 5 (31:22):
No, No, what I was going to say to concur
with you is around and around and around you go,
and it might get harder, but it won't get browner.
Speaker 1 (31:30):
Yeah, that happen.
Speaker 3 (31:32):
It conveyor belts through and then drops off at the end.
And once you you got to sit there and tap
your toe. Still it goes through and hope it looks
brown enough. I can get more now now, of course
I'm a veteran. If I'm going to engage the room,
I walk right to that toaster and get that muffin going,
and then take and look around and say, now what
(31:55):
do we got going on here?
Speaker 1 (31:55):
Okay?
Speaker 5 (31:57):
From here, I'd like to shoot from here as we
are in the beautiful Holiday Inn expresses in all the
places that we frequent on a level that I never
dreamed would happen. And one of the things I would
like to discuss is how each and every one of
these places has cookies, sometimes even cereal, but no milk.
Speaker 3 (32:23):
Milk, the little kiosks.
Speaker 5 (32:27):
How many times have we looked at donuts and cookies
and even sometimes little to go cereal with no milk?
Speaker 3 (32:38):
Yeah, and even more frustrating view of that cabinet is
there many times there is muscle milk, there is almond
straw milk.
Speaker 1 (32:50):
Milk, yeah, very good.
Speaker 3 (32:52):
Yeah.
Speaker 6 (32:53):
I think probably the reason is is because they probably
waste a lot of it, because I mean, although we
are milk lovers, most people.
Speaker 2 (33:01):
Aren't, and so if it sits in there too long now,
they're just throwing it out.
Speaker 1 (33:06):
One point that happened too many times.
Speaker 3 (33:07):
In a row, and moment went yeah, yeah, guys, guys,
I'm sorry one more already Cornfeld thing I forgot to mention.
I want to mention about it because we got past him.
But you guys, if you want a little taste of
Aldi Cornfeld, make sure this This Sunday's episode of The
Coucil Chronicles on the River ninety seven point nine. Just
(33:29):
download the app is Artie's episode, okay, and you can
go listen. Uncle already be Uncle Arty and it's good.
I mean, Mike Kerner, He's like, who's that guy, the
fire Chat side voice guy, Garrison Geeler.
Speaker 5 (33:44):
Garrison Keeler, he was from the Prairie Home Companion all right.
Speaker 3 (33:50):
Yeah, so Mike Curtners our Garrison Keeler. Thanks Susan, Yes,
but they put together him and Sicilian the game, put
together the episodes and Artiekornfeld. Hey, he's going to come
at you again too, because we will have him back.
I don't know what he's going to tell us, but
I just had to get that in. And also tom
Ball Texas is our last trio performance of twenty twenty five.
(34:12):
We say goodbye to the year. December fifteenth is a
trio show at tom Ball Texas. That's before December twenty
eighth in Illinois, which remember we talked about that. We
forgot we didn't know about that gig, but we're going.
It's okay, it's cool. So tom Ball Texas, who have
already rebooked us for next December. We love them, they
(34:33):
love us. It's a true residency.
Speaker 1 (34:36):
I thought that was because we've ah you see what
you want.
Speaker 3 (34:40):
I'm telling you, man, this is crazy. We just heard
from Arlingkedin again. We're going to go back there into
Arlingkedin next September. We'll tell you all about that later
and get in gigs that are coming after January thirtieth,
which one I love, Nugget.
Speaker 6 (34:54):
What I love about that is that so we played
Tombull on the fifteenth and so, and here we are
at the UH and so what day is today? Is
the nineteenth, So we don't have a show. I'm going
to have my heart shocked before i have to do
another show. That's going to be Tomball going too that show,
(35:18):
if they can shock it and put it in in rhythm,
I think it's going to be great.
Speaker 3 (35:24):
Guys, if that happens, and all your people at Tombull,
just get the word out, because if that happens and
Paul's coming to town, we're going to have Tigger on
steroids that night.
Speaker 2 (35:35):
Okay, you just remember so good man.
Speaker 5 (35:38):
I don't think they're going to really think that's a
great idea to head out of that procedure as Tigger,
but they might say, hey, go as if.
Speaker 1 (35:46):
You would be.
Speaker 2 (35:48):
Yeah, I know.
Speaker 6 (35:49):
I hear a lot of people when that happens, when
it gets back in rhythm, everybody's telling me, man, I've
never felt.
Speaker 2 (35:54):
So good, and I'm thinking kind about I haven't really
felt that bad. Ye, who the hell knows?
Speaker 3 (36:00):
Doctors are fine? That sit Paul down? Well, mister calcil,
can you handle maybe the ballads in the show this time?
Speaker 6 (36:06):
Yeah?
Speaker 10 (36:07):
Yeah, yeah, So I have a pet peeve, but you know,
I want to you know, I have a pet peeve,
but boy today was incredible, which might have pulled me
off of my pet peeve.
Speaker 6 (36:18):
But my pet peeve has been all through. What I've
been dealing with here is that appointment, getting that appointment,
and then when you get the appointment, it's like a month.
Speaker 11 (36:29):
Down the line, and you know you're sitting here with
like death defying things, you know. Yeah, And to see
that come up like that, I only assume that they
know better than I know that I'll be fine in
a month.
Speaker 2 (36:43):
You know that I'll live long enough to make the appointment.
Speaker 5 (36:47):
And it's kind of encouraging that they're not going you
need to be back your day after tomorrow.
Speaker 1 (36:51):
Right, Those are the other ways it goes.
Speaker 3 (36:55):
Is how Paul handles that. Now I am the guy
if it's a month, and now you saying, well, I
guess they know if I'm going to I'm going I'm
going to be dead before that appointment comes in.
Speaker 1 (37:06):
They don't care and they don't they know it, so
it doesn't even matter.
Speaker 3 (37:09):
It's like there's a million of me that they're going
to go, you know, and I'll be fine.
Speaker 6 (37:15):
And if I will tell you once you get that,
once you get that appointment, once you make that appointment,
and once you go to it, you realize you're sitting
in front of somebody who's like really smart about what
it is you got. Oh no, yeah, listen, I'm very
happy with Once I get in there.
Speaker 3 (37:32):
They know so much. I'm telling you, they know everything.
Speaker 2 (37:34):
Now.
Speaker 3 (37:35):
Look having conversation, people will live to one hundred and
fifty after we're going to generation. If you're going to
replace every organ you have once it goes bad, it's
right right, you're not going to do this. I got
to do that.
Speaker 2 (37:47):
Yeh yeah.
Speaker 5 (37:49):
On Hulu, Polly, remember that guy who he was thore
and then he found out he had the marker.
Speaker 1 (37:57):
He did that whole health that whole health.
Speaker 2 (38:00):
Show hesn't Worth hems Worth.
Speaker 1 (38:02):
Yes, Yes, well he's got a new show. Yeah.
Speaker 5 (38:07):
His dad is early early stagees Alzheimer, and they're going
to take a trip relive his life.
Speaker 4 (38:14):
I know that.
Speaker 2 (38:15):
Yeah.
Speaker 5 (38:15):
And they're saying the research is saying that this could
be a helpful reality to.
Speaker 2 (38:22):
What he already said. Yes, and it comes on Hulu.
Speaker 5 (38:25):
And Disney, And I just think i'd like to, you know,
promote that just on a PSA kind of level. So
it looks like a wonderful show that guy puts together,
some great stuff.
Speaker 2 (38:33):
That guy does incredible share a lot about the actor.
Speaker 1 (38:37):
Yeah, So I just wanted to p s A that.
Speaker 2 (38:40):
No, I'm ready for that one, man, I'm going to
watch that.
Speaker 3 (38:43):
I'll throw one more p s A out for me.
I just flew on the brand new Southwest airplane that
they've got divvied up into these seats and those seats
in them seats and no walls though a color coded
and it's a beauty, a beautiful dark blue rug all
(39:06):
the way down the plane. There's a Max eight, the
newest Yeah. Yeah, the front sections where the leg room is,
that's a nice dark blue seating. The middle section where
it's preferred seating, not extra leg but up the plane
further and just is next tier is in a lighter
(39:27):
blue you know, to go with the dark you love all.
Speaker 1 (39:30):
That blue mountain.
Speaker 3 (39:31):
Yeah, I love the lighter section and the lightest blue.
Are all the standard seats in the back of the
plane that are just regular seats for regular people because.
Speaker 6 (39:42):
You're not going to pay extra to right, But are
they going to be scrambling for those seats or does
everybody have a numbered seat?
Speaker 3 (39:48):
Now you have a numbered seat, so everybody everybody will
have a numbered seat. So you go in and now
after January twenty ninth, this takes place, okay, so if
you book passes, so I did Las Vegas. Okay, so
you go in, it's twenty nine. So now you're sent
to a seating chart and okay, so here's the Let's
(40:12):
take the Las Vegas two. There's four columns. Now, the
cheapest forty one dollars, but you're probably probably sitting on
the wing, but anyway, it's forty one dollars. Then it
goes up like to one hundred to one hundred and fifty.
Then the highest you want the leg room, you want
everything they have to offer and you're going to pay
this amount of money. Now, the good news I found
(40:33):
out if you're a less preferred, which I am because
I've been flying that thing forever. You picked the forty
one dollars, you go to the seat you want, it's free,
so otherwise it can be forty eight dollars. Look, this
is my first example. I haven't gone across country where
there's four flights, four seats, four amount. You know, I
(40:54):
got to navigate this stuff. But so far itself is gorgeous.
They built platforms for your iPads and phones on the
seatback in front of you. Now because we don't put
monitors into those seats, you use your device. But now
they've got beautiful sets. Anyway, it's looking good.
Speaker 2 (41:12):
Mom, I want to ask a question, so so you don't.
Speaker 6 (41:16):
Then then it would seem to me that it's not
really necessary to be there right when they call your
color or something, because you have your seat and it's numbered,
nobody's going to get in it, and so no one's
going to be you could you could be running a
little late and still make it, you know.
Speaker 3 (41:32):
And not have to worry so much about Yeah, yes,
you could be said get there before the door closes,
you're still good versus get there before the door closes.
You went from ABC dot D and there is none
you know, so you're in the middle. Oh, you're in
the middle.
Speaker 6 (41:48):
You know.
Speaker 3 (41:49):
It's funny people, And I'm guilty too. Sometimes if a
guy comes in at the end of the sea fighting
on the southwest, but I'm comfortable my window and I see, God,
that's like three hundred pounds and he's way left and
right and he's six foot five. I want to strangle
that guy right because you know where you have to sit,
(42:10):
and I'm going because it's just it's inconvenient. You get
in that a position out of respect for fellows. And
I'm not fat shaming, so don't get on me about
any of that.
Speaker 1 (42:22):
You're risking it.
Speaker 3 (42:23):
No, I'm alphabet shaming. Okay, you've got no business being
a c you being a be courteous to your belt travelers.
Speaker 2 (42:31):
That's a guy that hardly ever flies.
Speaker 3 (42:34):
Okay, you can cut him, but well then yeah probably,
Well then I got to be on the aisle, see,
so I can monitor that and say, hey, if you.
Speaker 6 (42:41):
Ever pay to get that monitored, it costs an extra
five bucks.
Speaker 3 (42:49):
Yeah, all right, everybody we'll see you next week for
the Thanksgiving.
Speaker 5 (42:54):
So okay, So look, look, so we just say tuesday, Paul,
you want to go get your girl and just come
back Tuesday, Yes, okay.
Speaker 2 (43:03):
Tuesdays, and then i'll see, I'll see what a good
time for her is and then we'll work out the time.

gigs coming, don't worry, we're going to mention everything. We'll

Speaker 1 (02:11):
Do we want to review it?
Speaker 3 (02:12):
But my general comment and then we will review it
one more time with Figure and Wonder now is that
this is going to be one blast of somer.
Speaker 2 (02:25):
So you're gonna be.
Speaker 3 (02:26):
Old du That's all I'm gonna say.
Speaker 1 (02:28):
Like, it's gonna be wild thing like that will be
the theme.
Speaker 3 (02:34):
It could be a three bus tour going out on
two bus y'all posted about that.
Speaker 5 (02:39):
You're cute, I mean, you know Dan, well, the powers
it be before they give us another bus, they give
us a bunk.
Speaker 3 (02:47):
No, I'm just saying it's a two bus tour, but
it seems like a three bus socket rates.
Speaker 1 (02:52):
So here's what we got. We're going to review again
because it's for sure.
Speaker 5 (02:56):
Can say ready, everybody Okay, Cow Sills, Johnte, Original Tribe.
Speaker 1 (03:04):
Sugar, we got the Trogs. Wow, we got the Fortunes.
We've got guy from Chicago, and we have the Association.
It's to fold. Were missing? Are we up to eight?
Is somebody missing?
Speaker 3 (03:24):
Yes? From the Association. We already know we'll be no
no no.
Speaker 5 (03:28):
But if did we get eight x Councils, Dante, Yes, Vogues, Trogs,
Guy Association and Fortunes, that's only seven.
Speaker 3 (03:38):
Gary Puckett, Gabby there.
Speaker 5 (03:41):
We are guys insanity, happy to get happily insane together.
Speaker 1 (03:46):
It's gonna be a blast.
Speaker 8 (03:48):
Uh.
Speaker 3 (03:49):
One of the surprises is that Gary Pucket and we
the councils, have decided to switch. It's for the summer, and.
Speaker 9 (03:58):
The councils will be not only not opening, we won't
be opening, we won't be ending. We're having our own
set right after the end of Happy Together. Everything will
be different.
Speaker 1 (04:09):
I'm just kidding. We do get to open, Okay, Polly,
we will open opening. We're opening. Guys. We've been told
we're never leaving, and we're like, we're happy about that.
Speaker 3 (04:20):
We're trying to guess with Chicago songs because there really
are more than you think. Yeah, twenty before, if the
guy can still belt it out. Now, I'm sum in
ten years with Chicago and I think a year or
two of blood, sweat and tears even.
Speaker 1 (04:34):
Yeah, I'm thinking it's going to go like this.
Speaker 3 (04:36):
That's major lead singing as time goes.
Speaker 1 (04:40):
All do that, I'll color my world. I'll bet that, Jason.
Speaker 3 (04:51):
There are twenty two ballots in the show.
Speaker 2 (04:53):
Okay, I was walking down yes, stress one.
Speaker 8 (04:57):
Day, okay, absolutely, and then you know, oh, Saturday in
the Park, absolutely going to be.
Speaker 2 (05:18):
In that line.
Speaker 3 (05:19):
What are the one the Bucks do the Bucking Hymns.
Speaker 1 (05:21):
Saturday Chicago the cover Saturday. Yeah yeah yeah, Carligo, you
kill it.
Speaker 3 (05:28):
But yeah, yeah, you can see the Bucking Hamps with
that horn section live man, that's the Bucking Man right there. Yeah,
with that horn section.
Speaker 1 (05:38):
Yeah, that's Chicago because they are Chicago.
Speaker 5 (05:41):
The Buck and right yeah, all those guys have the
same vibe like Nola Funk.
Speaker 1 (05:46):
Guys all feel the same. All the Chicago horn bands,
they all have that soul soul voice they know, So we.
Speaker 2 (05:54):
Don't really know. Like the Fortunes, they're they're coming out
as a four piece. Is there any original Fortunes?
Speaker 5 (06:02):
Let me look around while we're out pod here, see
if we got originals Okay, in the Fortunes.
Speaker 1 (06:10):
Yep, the band the Fortunes, I'm going to say.
Speaker 3 (06:15):
Four of them, and there's four trot Was it the trogs? Yes,
it was because there's two main trogs, but they have
to bring two other trogs with them. Now that listen,
here's what we're going to commit to guys, listen to
this idea. No, we've got a great idea. We are
going to clear all of this up because you know what,
We're going to reach out to every one of these
(06:36):
new guys and get them on the podcast before the
tour and we're going to shake them down. Okay, and
we're going to get all the skinny right, good playing, Yes, tay.
Speaker 5 (06:45):
Guys, Yes, guys twenty According to Okay, yes, the band
the Fortunes has original members performing to this day. Words Well,
the lineup has changed significantly over the years. The original
members in nineteen six, Oh wait a minute, that's no, No,
(07:05):
it was manipulative verbage.
Speaker 3 (07:07):
Yeah, there's no There might be one. I can't remember
who it was, but i'd have to check it to confirm.
Speaker 2 (07:12):
That current.
Speaker 1 (07:14):
You're no longer original lineup just went down the line.
Speaker 3 (07:18):
And you know what that says. That says what a
great song that you've got your troubles is. That's what
That's how this too operates, folks. That's the songs we
know it because if these guys know you've got your troubles,
then we saw the vogues do it. You do it
for a reason, and that's how it works.
Speaker 4 (07:35):
We do it.
Speaker 1 (07:36):
We do it for a reason though, like we make
it one of our songs in our set.
Speaker 3 (07:41):
Because to be great, they're gonna sing our favorite songs. Honestly,
I know the two trog songs. I'm not familiar with
the third. But Little Anthony had a song I didn't know,
Jam the Americas and that don't.
Speaker 1 (07:52):
Lock the Door I Little Antonio right right.
Speaker 3 (07:56):
You know it seems we all have hits that didn't
get to each other.
Speaker 5 (08:00):
Yeah, yeah, yeah, this is wild though, I know and
it is okay, So our Chicago guy he is. He's
been the Chicago singer for many years, but he is
not necessarily the original Chicago guy.
Speaker 2 (08:12):
Is that correct, right?
Speaker 3 (08:13):
Jason was saying for ten years. I think he ended
up in twenty nineteen was his last year singing lead
for Chicago, I think. But like I said, we'll have
him on, will ask him. But I think it's funny
that the guy said we're going to have four people
with the Fortunes for with the Trogs and the laundry.
Speaker 1 (08:36):
Rob's going to be one held.
Speaker 3 (08:37):
The third of the newest fans who probably when they
played live had eighteen people on stage, is coming out
alone Jason Chef with Chicago and it's like, you think
he'd come with No, he's coming with eight people. They go, well,
of course, Chicago, Chicago.
Speaker 2 (08:52):
Do we think Do we think the Association are coming
out with just Jules and Paul?
Speaker 1 (08:57):
That's what I think. I know that Delhi isn't coming,
and I'm going to text him and see how he's doing.
Speaker 2 (09:04):
I don't want it'll be funny if the keyboard kid
who's Jordan, he actually is no.
Speaker 1 (09:12):
Longer with the Association PAULI isn't that interesting? I read
that online. Dad the kid is no longer with them,
and I think we know why he was not necessarily happy.
Speaker 3 (09:24):
What. No, you don't think it's a Jim Yester resurrection,
do you?
Speaker 4 (09:28):
No?
Speaker 1 (09:29):
No, no way you can find out.
Speaker 5 (09:32):
I can find out in a hot minute if there's
a Jim Yester resurrection.
Speaker 1 (09:36):
Anybody wanted me to do it?
Speaker 3 (09:38):
No?
Speaker 5 (09:39):
Actually, hey, why don't we Why don't we Jimmy on
after kind of semi retirement?
Speaker 1 (09:45):
See how why don't we have Jimmy on? Jim Yester?
Speaker 2 (09:48):
Perfect? We could have Jewels on and have him tell
us what he knows.
Speaker 1 (09:53):
Yeah, okay, but who was I going to do? We
can tell us that Jim yes, there to see and.
Speaker 3 (10:00):
Complicated, but we're gonna see Jewels on December twenty eighth,
which we'll talk about people in a minute, because we
really get sidetracked here on these sidebars. But they are
a lot of fun. We're all excited about the summer
tour and it's only November because there's just it's just
gonna be a little different, and it's gonna be a
little crowded, okay, and because well we all love crowds.
Speaker 5 (10:20):
Not well, I just like I said, the laundry room
at the mini hotels we stay at are going to
be even moreling with just.
Speaker 3 (10:27):
With just with the Trons and the Fortunes alone. There
are now instead of two lead singers in line for
the washing machine, there's eight people. It's like just with
two of the bands and there's eight bands.
Speaker 5 (10:40):
Hey, should I text he will not be named, and go, FYI,
our laundry line just got bigger by eight people. Me,
Bob and follower on the podcast talking and we're just
realized that our laundry line.
Speaker 1 (10:56):
He'll laughing he did.
Speaker 3 (10:59):
It and also call when you do it, says ask him. Hey,
Bob and Paul, I want to know if if we
can let the trogs know about offering them flushing, fold
and wash and fold what laundry services on the job.
Speaker 1 (11:13):
No, we'll lose our privileges.
Speaker 10 (11:16):
Yeah, I think Ronald come back at you, Susan, and
he'll go He'll go, well we've got fluff and fold
fluff well, baby, hey.
Speaker 1 (11:26):
And then we'll know at least word secure for the summer.
Speaker 5 (11:28):
So I'll go ahead and shoot this ant ho nor okay,
I want to just say me and the boys were
just thinking, we're going to be eight people more in
the laundry line at the motels.
Speaker 3 (11:39):
We're gonna it's like and I'm thinking of wild Thing
and I'm trying and you know, we're gonna love all
these new acts because that's what always happens every summer.
But right now, yeah, I'm thinking wild Thing, Like, Okay,
I can imitate the guy's voice I say wild Think
as much as he did from pubs singing. You know, yeah,
wild Thing comes up to me. It's like a more vocals,
(12:01):
single lead vocal and I don't hear a lot of
harmonies with the four people that are coming. You know something, Well,
they're not like them papas, They're not like the birds.
They're they're the truth.
Speaker 1 (12:13):
We usually stay.
Speaker 3 (12:14):
They had the ballad, which is beautiful, but it's said
in the air love is all the round us.
Speaker 1 (12:21):
Yeah, that's a beautiful stuffing, great sound.
Speaker 3 (12:24):
Yeah it's beautiful, but.
Speaker 6 (12:26):
In express Susan we say it those a lot do
some Hampton's Hampton.
Speaker 1 (12:33):
Expresses what I was looking for. He's gonna laugh so hard.
Speaker 3 (12:37):
I'm going to ask the guy in the trucks, like, Okay,
you're one to four. What'd you say to the fourth
fourth guys like, hey, we're the Trucks. We need a
fourth vocalist. Because if the guy doesn't say you don't
need a fourth vocalist, it'll be fun fun, Okay.
Speaker 6 (12:54):
It had to be interesting though, when the Trocks manager
or whoever the people and and you know, he's talking
to Ron and he goes, yeah, you know we got
to come out as a four piece, you know, and
just like Ron at the like you know, I can't imagine.
Speaker 5 (13:11):
Well here, okay, yes, it was a lot. I bet
there were a lot of things. I bet Ron went, okay,
I'll do it. Okay, say, mister Trog.
Speaker 3 (13:21):
The councils went from eight to three, surely you can
go to four to one.
Speaker 1 (13:28):
I would say this.
Speaker 3 (13:30):
I got to tell you, if the t I said
this about hating the Americans and conter me and my
or you know, their their big song, the Trogs, if
I think, especially the especially the shows where the lobby's
open for two hours before the show. By the time
the Trocks hit wild thing this, the room's gonna collapse
or something. It's gonna be, it's gonna be. It can
(13:53):
go one way or the other.
Speaker 1 (13:55):
Look, we've never had a wild thing. I can't remember
we had a thing. No, no, like something that would
bring the old house.
Speaker 3 (14:03):
The only thing, the only thing I could equate it
to is I played at a pub for many years,
three years and wipe out, which is something when everyone
was drunk on the guitar. You're a singer. What are
you doing wipe out for? But guess everybody's drug single
started and he got in from the pub because at
the drum part, you know, fifty eight drum bubbers became
(14:24):
a drummer and broke all the tables and chairs one
night and they banned it from the pub. Wipe out
his band, So that that's this kind of thing. But
that is funny. But I can't wait to hear you've
got your troubles whatever, Chicago ones, I'm good to go.
You know that's gonna be great.
Speaker 1 (14:44):
I'm telling he read it, you guys, uh nor read
the text.
Speaker 5 (14:47):
So I said, I'm letting him know where we love
him and we're excited for the summer.
Speaker 3 (14:52):
Oh my goodness. Well, listen, you are have an opportunity, folks,
and they have to not make the Happy Together tour.
Anyone who cannot you know, get it there in the summer.
We are bringing exactly what now is three eighths of
the tour to Saint Charles, Illinois December twenty eighth, with
the Vogues, the Association and the Costles playing on the
(15:15):
same gig a Night of American Harmony at the Arcada Theater,
and we want to see everybody there December twenty eighth.
You can get inkling of what they Happy Together show
is all about and talk to some of the artists.
Speaker 1 (15:27):
The Yeah, that's a pretty good what's going on?
Speaker 3 (15:31):
Yeah, it'll be fun and see a longer show from
each act rather than what are now the one and
a half songs that we're each going to do in
the summer.
Speaker 2 (15:40):
Okay, three songs we're only doing thirty minutes in Chicago.
Speaker 3 (15:45):
And a lot more, guys, did you catch this? It's
like and just so guys, just you know, all the
coustiles on the Happy Together Tour have been asked to do.
It's like in the beginning that first of us, shut up,
you're talking too much, and then so we cut back time.
Shut up, Hey could you cheat? You like not just
just do your songs? Okay, so we do that, Hey,
could you take out another song? Okay, we'll take out
(16:08):
we can fly do that. And now in today's call,
I said, well Chicago, well there we might get four
and already I'm going four.
Speaker 2 (16:18):
Two.
Speaker 3 (16:19):
Yeah, that's going on here. You know, we got to
make the rookies happy.
Speaker 5 (16:27):
Just think about that first night coming out and going Hi, everybody, Holy.
Speaker 1 (16:32):
Cow, have we got a show for you?
Speaker 3 (16:35):
And you know it's funny. It's going to feel absolutely
normal to me to the end of hair and we
take our seats and then it.
Speaker 1 (16:44):
Is going to be beautiful. We are so lucky. We
get that's what the show. We're the lucky and we
get the assos back.
Speaker 5 (16:51):
Those are still our our complete, utter one first favorites
of the songs we love from our together experience. Ye,
Basel back some configuration. I'll find out from Lama why
he's sitting this out. And if that's the crew, you
know that's a rumor. It's from Dell. It's it is
(17:11):
rigorous and Lama is well, look there, you know we're
all getting old.
Speaker 6 (17:15):
Yeah. Yeah.
Speaker 1 (17:16):
Oh, speaking of which, Paul, would you like to report
a little bit on your present health status.
Speaker 6 (17:23):
Yeah, I'm doing well. Yeah, I have cancer. The cancer
is way on the back burners. Now everybody's off my back.
The hormone guy, my surgeon is so happy. I've been
hitting these zeros for almost a year a year actually
a year and uh and so then you know, I
had the aphib and so I went and took an
(17:46):
echo cardiogram ECG, and uh, we got the report back
today that said my heart's looking good.
Speaker 2 (17:55):
Everything is beautiful. And so then I was I wrote
them a little note going, well, what about shocking my heart?
Speaker 6 (18:01):
Because if I didn't tell anybody, so the A fifth
thing is happening, and so my cardiologist goes, man, we're
going to shock it back into rhythm. And so and
that's like a procedure a couple of hours and you
go under anesthesia and then they got they freaking shock you.
Speaker 2 (18:16):
And so when it goes back into rhythm, I hear
I'm going to be able to.
Speaker 6 (18:20):
Go, wow, I feel so much better and I'm going
to have like so much energy if it gets back
in because I hear it from everybody.
Speaker 2 (18:27):
Oh man, if that works, man, you're going to feel
like one hundred percent. That was pretty good.
Speaker 6 (18:32):
And they're going to go, no, you're going to feel
better than you feel. And I'm thinking, man, if I
can feel better, then I feel that's going to be insane.
So that happens on Tuesday, December eleventh or second something,
and then I'm going to have that thing shocked.
Speaker 3 (18:50):
And then it just cracks you up. The way they
talk about it's like, you're going to feel so great forgo.
All we have to do is make you unconscious and
shoot four hundred jewels of elect through your part and
you're gonna get a million bucks.
Speaker 2 (19:03):
Yeah, well, hopefully we don't kill you doing it.
Speaker 1 (19:06):
There's that.
Speaker 5 (19:06):
I'm sure there's some kind of ratio of percentage which
is so low we aren't even more.
Speaker 6 (19:11):
You know.
Speaker 2 (19:12):
With Shane, they tried to shock his heart.
Speaker 6 (19:14):
Back in and it didn't work, so he had to
have that asplasia, you know. And I said to Shane, oh, man,
that's a drag. He goes, yeah, but he feels that
this shocking is going to work really good on me,
because I'm not.
Speaker 2 (19:26):
I don't think I'm as far along.
Speaker 3 (19:28):
I don't know.
Speaker 1 (19:29):
I agree.
Speaker 3 (19:29):
I agree with him.
Speaker 5 (19:31):
I think it's probably in that state longer than you
have been.
Speaker 2 (19:34):
Yeah, I believe so.
Speaker 6 (19:35):
And it was I mean, he could feel his heart
pounded out of his chest and I have yet to
be able to feel my heart beat in my chest.
Speaker 2 (19:46):
I'm pushing in. I can't get it.
Speaker 1 (19:49):
Yeah, I know, I know that this is my place
to go in and we just like good stuff.
Speaker 2 (19:54):
And so yeah, so my medical is happening. It's a
beautiful thing. Man, It's groovy and.
Speaker 3 (20:00):
Uh yeah, I tell you people, we marvel at it
because if you've been with us long enough, we were
with Paul now two years ago, anyway, half at the
door in the dressing room, will the doctor on the
speakerphone telling him, and yes, you have you have cancer
(20:22):
of the prostrate. Your Gleason glean score is nine. And
all we know is Jackie Gleeson. And we're gonna find
not good. And it's aggressive and like, what do you
mean aggressive? Yes, it's shooting everywhere.
Speaker 1 (20:36):
Are sitting there, Oh my.
Speaker 3 (20:39):
God, what we're going to do to Simon and garfuf songs?
But but you know where the son is?
Speaker 1 (20:44):
What material are we going to take on?
Speaker 3 (20:46):
We were there, We were there and now and it's
like I would have died of anxiety. I just could
have hung in and handled his brain better because Paul
just Paul just bounces through it.
Speaker 5 (21:03):
Man, that PAULI that's really true, because Bob would everyone
you know, I mean, we love you, we talk about you,
you know, on the road.
Speaker 1 (21:09):
How do you get Bob? Would Jesus my ma.
Speaker 3 (21:14):
Back lounge again on the bus don't would not.
Speaker 1 (21:19):
Have been stoicly going through it.
Speaker 3 (21:22):
Bob, he asked the bus to pull over the pace anyway,
I got.
Speaker 2 (21:29):
All night.
Speaker 1 (21:29):
No, that's yeah, goodness.
Speaker 3 (21:32):
He's the guy. He's the guy that has this attitude
when they really are dying and you marvel at it.
But you had it all through. He might be dying,
which to me better. It's more of a marvel to
me because I collapsing.
Speaker 1 (21:45):
That's the worst version of the whole thing. By the
time you're dying, you already know you got to do it,
so you're kind of used. We're terrible. Look, please, y'all
just understand.
Speaker 5 (21:55):
We were well, We've dealt with a lot of death
and this is, unfortunately, how the council deal with it.
Speaker 1 (22:01):
A lot of times we like to bring in that
good old Irish humer.
Speaker 3 (22:04):
Okay, oh, you know, speaking of family, I don't know
how this this reached me and I read a lot
of his lyrics to you guys, cousin Fred Presley, have
you Curt he's got he made an album of the
regal songs that he just released it. Okay, Fred Presley,
you can just look up Fred Presley dot com and look, Fred.
(22:27):
We were I personally, my personal I was one night
at a pub where Fred was doing what I was
doing back at my home in California. We were both
at the same time distant pub singers. And you know,
I'm in front of him and his pub and just
kind of laying low because it's his pub, you know. Anyway,
saw what he was doing. He was really good, like
(22:49):
pub singers are. That's why wedding bands and pub singers
are usually pretty good, or they wouldn't be.
Speaker 1 (22:54):
Doing that very good.
Speaker 3 (22:57):
And now I'm just telling you I was so glad
to hear spot checking these songs. And he's got some
good lyrics and they're up there. You can read those,
and just read those first, even and then maybe we
should have old Cuzy, we should have Fred. Honestly, Fred
right on, and this this is very.
Speaker 2 (23:14):
All our selfish ways.
Speaker 3 (23:15):
Yes, yes, yes, okay, And this guy's been a lifelong
troubadour we'll call him, you know puff singer, you.
Speaker 1 (23:26):
Know, I mean for himself like us, you know, cover tunes.
Speaker 3 (23:29):
More than your own, probably wrote five thousand songs, you
know one you know that guy. You know all of
us are that way, you know, that's how it is.
Speaker 5 (23:37):
So yeah, but they always kept playing music and making
it just for himself. Because he wrote a song, he
records a song, much like us.
Speaker 3 (23:44):
And I heard I heard other things he recorded. I
know I did, but it's something called something. This is
a more let's have some.
Speaker 1 (23:52):
I'll let him know.
Speaker 3 (23:53):
Yeah, it's goody good lyrics. I don't know. That just
popped in because you said something that triggered it. But anyway,
that's what I saw. Uh, let's see. Oh, I gotta
tell you. You know, we've had the first film. Artie
Cornfeld is the only podcaster in one hundred and ninety
five episodes who's been on the Council's podcast three times.
Speaker 2 (24:17):
Yeah.
Speaker 6 (24:18):
Wow, that's a distinction, a distinction, And he should give
him a residency, a residency, a podcast Council residency.
Speaker 3 (24:27):
That's a great idea because he's asked to kind of
chat it up again because time. Yeah, he's our uncle
LARTI and he and he's really man when he keeps going,
you know, it's incredible. It's like you just sit there.
I feel like when he gets going on some of
his stories, I feel like the three of us figuratively
we've gone in a little semi circle cross legged in
(24:49):
front of Buffalarty and he's up on the people looking
down and done. This is what we did there? Then
is amazing.
Speaker 1 (24:58):
That is wonderful.
Speaker 3 (24:59):
You guys, you're like, I said, I'm not going to
have that, and I came with you and I paid
to get you in the studio, was like, yeah, what else? Then?
Speaker 1 (25:06):
What I tell you? What I tell you?
Speaker 3 (25:08):
What Ben?
Speaker 5 (25:09):
That would really thrill and Bob, if you hate him,
send him an email and say we want to have
a fireside chats with Uncle Arty.
Speaker 3 (25:16):
Or yeah, touch base. After the thanks that get him back,
he'll be on fire. Yeah, because it was so funny,
even our experience of having him on and knowing what
he did with us and everything in Woodstock. But then
we started reading words of Artie saying, hey, where's Neil
(25:36):
Young and Bond yet you know, why aren't they saying
hi to me? And stuff like that? Likes and me
Paul going, well, why did the heck does he think?
Neil Young owes him hello? And then you can't know
he was the first too, so maybe he's it was great.
Speaker 1 (25:58):
I mean, Artie is not a young but it is
easy to guide because if we have facts, we can
place him anywhere we want them and then yell to
us everything.
Speaker 3 (26:05):
Let me tell you this guy's memory. I don't care
what he shoots it through. It's it's sharp. He's got memories.
He's got memories that are amazing, amazing because in some
places with so many people, it's like, oh my god, yeah,
he is amazing.
Speaker 2 (26:22):
He keeps it all together. I don't know.
Speaker 1 (26:25):
I think it's what.
Speaker 3 (26:27):
Yeah, it's his file cabinet system is way better than
mine because he knows allah than I remember.
Speaker 5 (26:34):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (26:35):
Man, yeah, but when we weren't working with him, we
were the kids and he wasn't a young twenty something.
But you know what the back then that stand out,
you know, yep, that's it.
Speaker 1 (26:46):
Speaking of adults.
Speaker 5 (26:47):
Nor got back in his response to everything we sent him,
and I always send him a cute zoom photo when
we're saying we want to talk to him. He said,
keep those smiles coming. Kids, nor he who will not
be named.
Speaker 3 (27:01):
Oh oh nor okay, get it. Yeah, that's very good.
So that's like you would be uh, you're just Bob
unfortunately not be allowed on the team because I would
be bobb.
Speaker 1 (27:22):
You guys, I have a pet peeve that I really
want to share. And I even didn't write it down.
Speaker 3 (27:26):
It's so happened to have a pet peep go.
Speaker 5 (27:29):
Ahead, okay, or a gripe whatever we used to call them.
This one, and everybody's gonna go O me.
Speaker 3 (27:38):
One in.
Speaker 1 (27:39):
But uh, lately I'm really out appreciating it.
Speaker 5 (27:45):
When I get out of a shower and I go
to take a towel that will not absorb the water
off of my body.
Speaker 1 (27:56):
A new towel we got, it's new, and it has
this stuff on it that repels water. Are you familiar
with towel?
Speaker 3 (28:07):
I personally am their Foo food towels. They spread water,
they do not absorb water. They look beautiful, they have
beautiful colors, they hang well in the bathroom. They are useless.
Speaker 1 (28:17):
Thank you.
Speaker 5 (28:18):
And as a matter of fact of origin, and this
truly ties into what you just said, is it came
from my dear bestie Lindy Ryan, who came and her
husband and her stayed from Rhode Island, My best friend
from Saint Augustine's. They stayed in our cottage and she
bought the most damn cutest towels. They're periwinkle blue, beautiful.
Speaker 1 (28:41):
But they do not want water off my body.
Speaker 5 (28:45):
It's so crazy, and I've run into this and travel
and I'm like, what is this new phenomenon. It's like
the microfibers that are on some other useful that I
don't know what, maybe polishing your guitar or for.
Speaker 1 (28:58):
An interesting so anyway that tells that do not absorb water.
Speaker 3 (29:03):
I do think they're viewed as as upscale towels. I
do think they're viewed that way.
Speaker 5 (29:08):
You said, fruitfy. My buddy would not send me lousy towels.
She would send me upper skin. They're gorgeous and I
loved them until I tried to dry myself.
Speaker 1 (29:16):
Now, if she sends me a text in the next
few days.
Speaker 2 (29:18):
And good, maybe you just need to wash the sizing
out of it.
Speaker 1 (29:22):
Well we are we are yet round two still, so
that's where it being a little bit more.
Speaker 2 (29:29):
It's like soft water. When you shower with soft water,
it feels like it's like that you.
Speaker 3 (29:35):
Like a beautiful woman with a horrible personality. Yeah kind of, yeah,
I'm saying, see that.
Speaker 5 (29:43):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (29:44):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (29:46):
It's also after it's been used that then you find out,
oh this is what you're like. Oh good lord.
Speaker 1 (29:52):
Yeah no anyway, whatever, anyway, I feel better. I just
you're it.
Speaker 3 (29:57):
Here's mine, you know, I'm I really do love all
of the holiday and expresses and the Hampton and sweets,
any of the big hotels that don't have a restaurant
in the hotel, but they have free breakfast. And I
love the free breakfast because something is there that you'll
(30:18):
like even if you're down to those eggs come out
of the carton. But sometimes those eggs are real, or
that's fake bacon, or this is the experience of the
free breakfast. But there's always oatmeal and browse sugar and
raisins is always cereal, this healthy fruit that blah blah blah.
Speaker 1 (30:34):
Jeez.
Speaker 3 (30:34):
The only my pet peep of that whole operation is
that it takes forever to toast an English buffet. It
takes I've got to sucker that thing through, turn it high,
and put it through two or three times before we
will finally toast to a level where the company thinks,
(30:55):
I it will be my fault if I burn myself. Well,
he put it through four times, because when you put
it through one time, you're not gonna be able to
butter it even And they're all like that, you guys,
whether it's a bagel or a toast or an englesh muffin,
what are they using our toaster? If the toasters like that,
(31:16):
belt wants to let it go, I know you can
turn it up.
Speaker 5 (31:22):
No, No, what I was going to say to concur
with you is around and around and around you go,
and it might get harder, but it won't get browner.
Speaker 1 (31:30):
Yeah, that happen.
Speaker 3 (31:32):
It conveyor belts through and then drops off at the end.
And once you you got to sit there and tap
your toe. Still it goes through and hope it looks
brown enough. I can get more now now, of course
I'm a veteran. If I'm going to engage the room,
I walk right to that toaster and get that muffin going,
and then take and look around and say, now what
(31:55):
do we got going on here?
Speaker 1 (31:55):
Okay?
Speaker 5 (31:57):
From here, I'd like to shoot from here as we
are in the beautiful Holiday Inn expresses in all the
places that we frequent on a level that I never
dreamed would happen. And one of the things I would
like to discuss is how each and every one of
these places has cookies, sometimes even cereal, but no milk.
Speaker 3 (32:23):
Milk, the little kiosks.
Speaker 5 (32:27):
How many times have we looked at donuts and cookies
and even sometimes little to go cereal with no milk?
Speaker 3 (32:38):
Yeah, and even more frustrating view of that cabinet is
there many times there is muscle milk, there is almond
straw milk.
Speaker 1 (32:50):
Milk, yeah, very good.
Speaker 3 (32:52):
Yeah.
Speaker 6 (32:53):
I think probably the reason is is because they probably
waste a lot of it, because I mean, although we
are milk lovers, most people.
Speaker 2 (33:01):
Aren't, and so if it sits in there too long now,
they're just throwing it out.
Speaker 1 (33:06):
One point that happened too many times.
Speaker 3 (33:07):
In a row, and moment went yeah, yeah, guys, guys,
I'm sorry one more already Cornfeld thing I forgot to mention.
I want to mention about it because we got past him.
But you guys, if you want a little taste of
Aldi Cornfeld, make sure this This Sunday's episode of The
Coucil Chronicles on the River ninety seven point nine. Just
(33:29):
download the app is Artie's episode, okay, and you can
go listen. Uncle already be Uncle Arty and it's good.
I mean, Mike Kerner, He's like, who's that guy, the
fire Chat side voice guy, Garrison Geeler.
Speaker 5 (33:44):
Garrison Keeler, he was from the Prairie Home Companion all right.
Speaker 3 (33:50):
Yeah, so Mike Curtners our Garrison Keeler. Thanks Susan, Yes,
but they put together him and Sicilian the game, put
together the episodes and Artiekornfeld. Hey, he's going to come
at you again too, because we will have him back.
I don't know what he's going to tell us, but
I just had to get that in. And also tom
Ball Texas is our last trio performance of twenty twenty five.
(34:12):
We say goodbye to the year. December fifteenth is a
trio show at tom Ball Texas. That's before December twenty
eighth in Illinois, which remember we talked about that. We
forgot we didn't know about that gig, but we're going.
It's okay, it's cool. So tom Ball Texas, who have
already rebooked us for next December. We love them, they
(34:33):
love us. It's a true residency.
Speaker 1 (34:36):
I thought that was because we've ah you see what
you want.
Speaker 3 (34:40):
I'm telling you, man, this is crazy. We just heard
from Arlingkedin again. We're going to go back there into
Arlingkedin next September. We'll tell you all about that later
and get in gigs that are coming after January thirtieth,
which one I love, Nugget.
Speaker 6 (34:54):
What I love about that is that so we played
Tombull on the fifteenth and so, and here we are
at the UH and so what day is today? Is
the nineteenth, So we don't have a show. I'm going
to have my heart shocked before i have to do
another show. That's going to be Tomball going too that show,
(35:18):
if they can shock it and put it in in rhythm,
I think it's going to be great.
Speaker 3 (35:24):
Guys, if that happens, and all your people at Tombull,
just get the word out, because if that happens and
Paul's coming to town, we're going to have Tigger on
steroids that night.
Speaker 2 (35:35):
Okay, you just remember so good man.
Speaker 5 (35:38):
I don't think they're going to really think that's a
great idea to head out of that procedure as Tigger,
but they might say, hey, go as if.
Speaker 1 (35:46):
You would be.
Speaker 2 (35:48):
Yeah, I know.
Speaker 6 (35:49):
I hear a lot of people when that happens, when
it gets back in rhythm, everybody's telling me, man, I've
never felt.
Speaker 2 (35:54):
So good, and I'm thinking kind about I haven't really
felt that bad. Ye, who the hell knows?
Speaker 3 (36:00):
Doctors are fine? That sit Paul down? Well, mister calcil,
can you handle maybe the ballads in the show this time?
Speaker 6 (36:06):
Yeah?
Speaker 10 (36:07):
Yeah, yeah, So I have a pet peeve, but you know,
I want to you know, I have a pet peeve,
but boy today was incredible, which might have pulled me
off of my pet peeve.
Speaker 6 (36:18):
But my pet peeve has been all through. What I've
been dealing with here is that appointment, getting that appointment,
and then when you get the appointment, it's like a month.
Speaker 11 (36:29):
Down the line, and you know you're sitting here with
like death defying things, you know. Yeah, And to see
that come up like that, I only assume that they
know better than I know that I'll be fine in
a month.
Speaker 2 (36:43):
You know that I'll live long enough to make the appointment.
Speaker 5 (36:47):
And it's kind of encouraging that they're not going you
need to be back your day after tomorrow.
Speaker 1 (36:51):
Right, Those are the other ways it goes.
Speaker 3 (36:55):
Is how Paul handles that. Now I am the guy
if it's a month, and now you saying, well, I
guess they know if I'm going to I'm going I'm
going to be dead before that appointment comes in.
Speaker 1 (37:06):
They don't care and they don't they know it, so
it doesn't even matter.
Speaker 3 (37:09):
It's like there's a million of me that they're going
to go, you know, and I'll be fine.
Speaker 6 (37:15):
And if I will tell you once you get that,
once you get that appointment, once you make that appointment,
and once you go to it, you realize you're sitting
in front of somebody who's like really smart about what
it is you got. Oh no, yeah, listen, I'm very
happy with Once I get in there.
Speaker 3 (37:32):
They know so much. I'm telling you, they know everything.
Speaker 2 (37:34):
Now.
Speaker 3 (37:35):
Look having conversation, people will live to one hundred and
fifty after we're going to generation. If you're going to
replace every organ you have once it goes bad, it's
right right, you're not going to do this. I got
to do that.
Speaker 2 (37:47):
Yeh yeah.
Speaker 5 (37:49):
On Hulu, Polly, remember that guy who he was thore
and then he found out he had the marker.
Speaker 1 (37:57):
He did that whole health that whole health.
Speaker 2 (38:00):
Show hesn't Worth hems Worth.
Speaker 1 (38:02):
Yes, Yes, well he's got a new show. Yeah.
Speaker 5 (38:07):
His dad is early early stagees Alzheimer, and they're going
to take a trip relive his life.
Speaker 4 (38:14):
I know that.
Speaker 2 (38:15):
Yeah.
Speaker 5 (38:15):
And they're saying the research is saying that this could
be a helpful reality to.
Speaker 2 (38:22):
What he already said. Yes, and it comes on Hulu.
Speaker 5 (38:25):
And Disney, And I just think i'd like to, you know,
promote that just on a PSA kind of level. So
it looks like a wonderful show that guy puts together,
some great stuff.
Speaker 2 (38:33):
That guy does incredible share a lot about the actor.
Speaker 1 (38:37):
Yeah, So I just wanted to p s A that.
Speaker 2 (38:40):
No, I'm ready for that one, man, I'm going to
watch that.
Speaker 3 (38:43):
I'll throw one more p s A out for me.
I just flew on the brand new Southwest airplane that
they've got divvied up into these seats and those seats
in them seats and no walls though a color coded
and it's a beauty, a beautiful dark blue rug all
(39:06):
the way down the plane. There's a Max eight, the
newest Yeah. Yeah, the front sections where the leg room is,
that's a nice dark blue seating. The middle section where
it's preferred seating, not extra leg but up the plane
further and just is next tier is in a lighter
(39:27):
blue you know, to go with the dark you love all.
Speaker 1 (39:30):
That blue mountain.
Speaker 3 (39:31):
Yeah, I love the lighter section and the lightest blue.
Are all the standard seats in the back of the
plane that are just regular seats for regular people because.
Speaker 6 (39:42):
You're not going to pay extra to right, But are
they going to be scrambling for those seats or does
everybody have a numbered seat?
Speaker 3 (39:48):
Now you have a numbered seat, so everybody everybody will
have a numbered seat. So you go in and now
after January twenty ninth, this takes place, okay, so if
you book passes, so I did Las Vegas. Okay, so
you go in, it's twenty nine. So now you're sent
to a seating chart and okay, so here's the Let's
(40:12):
take the Las Vegas two. There's four columns. Now, the
cheapest forty one dollars, but you're probably probably sitting on
the wing, but anyway, it's forty one dollars. Then it
goes up like to one hundred to one hundred and fifty.
Then the highest you want the leg room, you want
everything they have to offer and you're going to pay
this amount of money. Now, the good news I found
(40:33):
out if you're a less preferred, which I am because
I've been flying that thing forever. You picked the forty
one dollars, you go to the seat you want, it's free,
so otherwise it can be forty eight dollars. Look, this
is my first example. I haven't gone across country where
there's four flights, four seats, four amount. You know, I
(40:54):
got to navigate this stuff. But so far itself is gorgeous.
They built platforms for your iPads and phones on the
seatback in front of you. Now because we don't put
monitors into those seats, you use your device. But now
they've got beautiful sets. Anyway, it's looking good.
Speaker 2 (41:12):
Mom, I want to ask a question, so so you don't.
Speaker 6 (41:16):
Then then it would seem to me that it's not
really necessary to be there right when they call your
color or something, because you have your seat and it's numbered,
nobody's going to get in it, and so no one's
going to be you could you could be running a
little late and still make it, you know.
Speaker 3 (41:32):
And not have to worry so much about Yeah, yes,
you could be said get there before the door closes,
you're still good versus get there before the door closes.
You went from ABC dot D and there is none
you know, so you're in the middle. Oh, you're in
the middle.
Speaker 6 (41:48):
You know.
Speaker 3 (41:49):
It's funny people, And I'm guilty too. Sometimes if a
guy comes in at the end of the sea fighting
on the southwest, but I'm comfortable my window and I see, God,
that's like three hundred pounds and he's way left and
right and he's six foot five. I want to strangle
that guy right because you know where you have to sit,
(42:10):
and I'm going because it's just it's inconvenient. You get
in that a position out of respect for fellows. And
I'm not fat shaming, so don't get on me about
any of that.
Speaker 1 (42:22):
You're risking it.
Speaker 3 (42:23):
No, I'm alphabet shaming. Okay, you've got no business being
a c you being a be courteous to your belt travelers.
Speaker 2 (42:31):
That's a guy that hardly ever flies.
Speaker 3 (42:34):
Okay, you can cut him, but well then yeah probably,
Well then I got to be on the aisle, see,
so I can monitor that and say, hey, if you.
Speaker 6 (42:41):
Ever pay to get that monitored, it costs an extra
five bucks.
Speaker 3 (42:49):
Yeah, all right, everybody we'll see you next week for
the Thanksgiving.
Speaker 5 (42:54):
So okay, So look, look, so we just say tuesday, Paul,
you want to go get your girl and just come
back Tuesday, Yes, okay.
Speaker 2 (43:03):
Tuesdays, and then i'll see, I'll see what a good
time for her is and then we'll work out the time.
Speaker 3 (43:09):
All right, all right, to confirm, goodbye everybody. About more
gigs coming, don't worry, we're going to mention everything. We'll
have a gig mentioning episode next week there and we'll
get already back and have a little court fire fire,
side side check.

artists coming out on the Happy together, so we're going
to get before they get near them.
Speaker 3 (43:34):
Bucks. Hey man, we can't have fun with these guys.
We can. You realize that we could make up anything.
We want to tell them what to expect this summer. Yeah, okay,
we're not going to do that. All right, good bye everybody, all.
