Speaker 1 (00:26):
From deep in the heart of the DJC Collectible Studio.
I'm Midwest professional wrestling legend, Gauge Octane and now the
new owner of the Double Cross Ranch, Kyle Peterson.
Speaker 2 (00:40):
Welcome everybody. Kyle here back for episode nine of The
Kyle Peterson Show, and as usual, got the beautiful co host,
got my wife Angie. Angie say hello, Hello, how's it going?
Hello Angie. Good to have you back here for a while.
Ride episode number nine. We're almost to episode ten. Can
you believe that? By my math and my account, next
week will be episode ten. Since we're in episode nine
(01:02):
right now, I use my fingers here. After that, it's
gonna get a little crazy. I'll need your help. Just
gotta start and that's where it gets confusing. So we'll
see if we can figure that out. But I'm sure
some of the viewers or of course the audio listeners
out there, will probably help us with the numbering in
the future. If we need some help there you go,
like Todd McFarland counting office toes. That's what we're doing.
But we're back with episode nine of The Kyle Peterson Show,
(01:23):
and most people are watching this obviously. Once again, if
you're a YouTube channel member or Patreon member, you do
get the video cast a lot earlier than, of course
the traditional means. But however you're listening, we do appreciate
it there. But as a lot of people are listening here.
It is Tuesday, is the day after Memorial Day, so
hopefully everybody had a good Memorial Day weekend. Hopefully you
got a lot of stuff done to the official kickoff
(01:46):
to summer as it's known in some circles. And Angie,
I know it as one of the busiest weeks of
the year for me in my work life, so a
very very busy week for me at work. So I'm
a little bit a little bit beat up and a
little bit stressed out this week. That's the way it goes.
But no rest for the Wicked should be a motto
for the channel. Lot to get a T shirt that
says that, maybe, And I'm out here. I'm here for
(02:06):
episode nine. And Angie's here as well, always my partner
in crime. And Angie looking extra good looking, only like
she could look this week on the channel here looking

Crazy school year. Yeah, I'm hoping to graduate sixth grade
this year. I hope it happens. I feel like it will.

gotta tell them? Why do I gotta plug this book?
Speaker 3 (02:59):
No one else?

New York Comic Con. But right in the middle, right
down the middle, Daddy is des Moin Khan of course,

reckon and flying in for it. But on Saturday the
thirty first, I will be part of an action figure
(04:05):
panel at Des Moines Con, so you can all meet me,
hang out with me, and do whatever you want to do.
But I will be there, so maybe we'll try to
film it or something. I don't know if that'll be
possible or not. Hopefully Angie'll come trying to get my
dad to come out, but he's not interested. But he
say so we won't. But des moines Tom he's got
to buld the yard for one hundredth time already, I think,
is what he's going to do. But de moin com Saturday,

be all three days. Ange you'll be there all three days.
That's right. You got your own table, I think, is

That's right, going going table the table and saying hey,
of if it's a Danafrio, do you have any interest
in buying this book? I know you're doing pictures as
a kingpin, but hey, why not? Why not? But Angie.
As we were saying, it is the kickoff to summer.
(05:09):
Memorial Day weekends. Hopefully everybody's kicking off their summer, right
I'm going to be doing a lot of action figure
on Boxing's our good friends over there at Jay's Toys
and Games. Got a big sale going on, so I'll
probably hit up there. Three stores, three locations in this area.
What else anything else going on? I don't think so.
I don't think there's a whole lot going on. Hopefully
my phone doesn't ring off the hook all weekend and
(05:30):
get a little piece and quiet, recharge the batteries, get
ready for the summer. And speaking of mowing, I definitely
got a mo so, like a lot of people, probably
got to use some yardwork at your yard ready for summer.
It's Memorial Days. It's not the Fourth of July. But
it's similar but different. You get a day off, hopefully
on Monday. But that's what's going on there. But I
did get some messages, Angie. We did say we were
(05:50):
going to this new macaroni and cheese place, and I
wrote it down. I think it is what it was called.
It was like Roney's. Yeah, like Pepperoni, but Macaroni, you know,
you like the ronies either way, But it was Macaroni's
or Roney's, just Roney's macbar. I think it was what
was called apparently it's some like viral sensation, online presence,
(06:11):
all this kind of stuff. And we went there, and
it was in my old campus of my college university
I graduated to, and Angie and I spent a lot
of time that back in the day. And Angie and
are going to reminisce later on in this very video
and one of the segments, so stay tuned to that.
Stay tuned to that. But we went to the Roney's
Mac bar there and we took the kids, and everybody
got it, and I seemingly liked it the best of
(06:32):
the whole family. I don't think anybody else. Everybody else
ate it, but I think I was the one that
enjoyed it. I don't know.
Speaker 3 (06:38):
I think the kids like the noodles or something. They
were kind of like whole grain kind of hard or not.
Speaker 2 (06:42):
Yeah, I don't know. Or no. It was the cheese.
It was kind of a I don't know, a grainy
cheese when it was melted into the back and.
Speaker 3 (06:48):
I thing, but it was almost too much cheese.
Speaker 2 (06:51):
I mean, I ate all mine. I had no problems
in this place to put you in the spirit was
like a Chipotle or a subway basically, so okay, you
get your macaroni noodle and then they had like cheddar
gouda and what was the other cheese. There was like
a couple of cheeses. You could choose Colby or it
was like a pepper Jack or something. So you could
choose your melted cheese on your noodles, and then you
(07:12):
could obviously get more cheese sprinkled on top if you
wanted to, if you want.
Speaker 3 (07:15):
Well, that was the top cheese that you picked.
Speaker 4 (07:17):
It's like it's got traditional macaroni and then you get
the more cheese on top.
Speaker 3 (07:20):
So I wish i'd just subbed that out.
Speaker 2 (07:22):
Yeah. Wow, it was too cheesy for Angie. And you said,
cheese me.
Speaker 4 (07:27):
If you want to please me, everything you add on
is enough charge.
Speaker 2 (07:31):
Of course, you get plain macaroni. It is what it is.
But then you got to add everything. It was like
fifteen bucks, like fifteen person. So you got a little macaroni. Yeah,
and it came in a little aluminium tin thing or whatever.
So it was macaroni, and then you got the cheese
that multiple cheeses. I got dice tlipenos in mine. I
got bread crumbs, a little garnish of bread crumbs over
(07:52):
the top. I got the brisket. You have the barbecue brisket,
and I got barbecue sauce over the top. And I
enjoyed mine. Then I think they put it all the
other and then they put it in like an oven
or something and kind of not long enough crisp, but up.
I don't know. I thought it was good. Angie wanted
it more melty, of course, so we did go there.
I'd recommend trying to at least once try everything once,
right Angie. That's Angie's bottom of life. Try everything at
(08:14):
least one time, and some things that most people would
want to try multiple times, multiple times every day. Who knows.
But it was good. So that was the highlight of
last weekend and doing some shopping and stuff like that.
But we and then we got a donut that was
absolutely got awful and terrible. I've never had a Dunkin
donut in my entire life. Can you believe that I've
never been going to Duncan. I'm just not a Dunkin guy.
(08:36):
I'm not even really a crispy cream guy. I'm just
not a donut guy. I guess maybe I'm not a
big desserts person. But we did go to Dunkin Donuts.
Angie felt bad because we parked in their parking lot.
Speaker 4 (08:46):
They had a private lot across the street and we
parked there, and I felt guilty.
Speaker 2 (08:50):
You know, Kyle, I gotta get a deal. You think
I'm gonna pay that seventy five cents to park, I'm
parking at the Dunkin Donuts lot. I'll rispy in toad.
You know. We got some sale doughnuts. So we got
some donuts. And the first thing is at seven o'clock
at night or whatever, you don't get some donuts from
Dunkin Donuts, They're not gonna be the freshest donuts. I
wanted a jelly filled donut, is what I was looking for,
something like raspberry inside. And of course they were all out.
(09:12):
Why wouldn't they be. It's probably the most popular, of course,
my choices always are. And then they threw in some
like little donut holes with jelly, but I didn't taste
any jelly in the my head. About two and I
said I don't want these, and the kids were like,
I'll take them, and they took them, and they took them. Yeah,
that's right. So shout out to Dunkin Donuts and not
really not very good. I was just not feeling the Dunkin.
(09:33):
I'm just not feeling it. Just oh yeah, I like,
you knew you loved all that cream. I knew you
would that Boston cream. Give her the Bavarian cream, give
her any kind of cream. She'll take it. Take her
you got the Bavarian or Boston or both. Give her
all the cream. I don't know. Remember I don't either
either way. You were a happy camper, happy camper getting
(09:53):
all that in there, for sure, just all over. It
was a mass. It was just a mass. Keep it
in your mind. But yeah, that was the week. So
really exciting stuff. I think a lot of people can relate.
Not all the weeks are the most exciting, that's for sure,
so interesting times of course. But now, Angie, we got
a lot of segments here, we got a lot of
stuff to digest, and let's start it off with a
(10:14):
little retail one oh one, we'll call it. We're gonna
do a little deeper dive we're gonna talk something that's
coming up a lot over the last week for a
lot of collectors. We're talking surge pricing. All right, it's
time for a deeper dive, and Angie, feel free to
(10:35):
chime in wherever you want on this one. I know
this is gonna be rivening to you, but this one
is about a little bit more than action figure collecting,
but primarily for this example, action figure collecting. And in
a deeper dive, we usually dive into a topic or
a segment that was maybe in the toy news, maybe
it was something else. But this week we're diving into
some surge pricing and a lot of people have seen
primarily on Amazon. And ANGI you probably witnessed this a
(10:56):
time or two. She doesn't pay attention and you mind,
she just spends it. She goes, I don't care. I
was like, you know, you could have got a deal.
There was a cupe on attached, you could have got
no no, no, I do.
Speaker 3 (11:06):
That you But I wouldn't notice if it went up
by a dollar I.
Speaker 2 (11:10):
Would, I would for sure. So anyway, it's long story short,
Edgye on surge pricing here Amazon Target. A lot of
things have surge pricing. You know, let's dive into this.
What exactly is surge pricing. The biggest example this week
was Marvel Legends Incredible Hulk, the Maximum Hulk. It was
fifty nine to ninety nine. Then all of a sudden,
it's eighty two dollars and it goes back to fifty nine,
(11:30):
ninety nine, goes back up to eighty two dollars. So
it's kind of playing a little bit of that bounce around. Okay,
book like my book. Amazon does the same thing with
my book. Sometimes it's nineteen ninety nine, sometimes it's sixteen
ninety nine. You gotta get a deal there. But what
I do in my pro tip for Amazon, anything I
buy on Amazon, I find what I want obviously, then
I add it to my cart, and then I usually
(11:50):
don't buy it right away unless it's something you really
have to buy away. I'll let it ride the wave
in the cart for a little bit. It'll go up,
maybe it'll go down. Usually it goes down because it's trying.
The algorithm is trying to get you to purchase it,
and you'll get the thing in your cart. It's dropped
by sixty eight cents.
Speaker 3 (12:06):
It's dropped by.
Speaker 2 (12:08):
Lowest price at thirty days. It's trying to get you
to buy, trying to do you to jump. Now, I
would say that is the way to go. Another place
is eBay. I do a lot of stuff on eBay,
as many collectors do. I always add it to my
want list or whatever it is called. And what will happen?
You wait a day, maybe you'll wait ten minutes. You'll
get an offer from the seller. So never jump in
and buy right away. You'll get an offer from a seller.
(12:30):
So we're seeing that a little bit with Amazon and
the targets of the world and Amazon for this Hulk,
as I talked about, it's going up and down based
on demand. So it's like, oh, it's eighty two bucks,
Oh my gosh. Then you put in your cart, or
maybe you see a Facebook group post, Hey, it's down
to fifty nine to ninety nine. Well guess what, oh man,
I really wanted that Hulk. I saw it was going
up to eighty two. I better just scoop in right
now at fifty nine to ninety nine. So it's a
(12:52):
way to get you there with the algorithm. Now talk
about Amazon talking about target, but we can talk about
grocery stores. You can talk about anything that has online deals.
A lot of time, the pricing online is different than
you will get in this store. Target is notorious for this,
and a couple of years ago I found out one
of those things. If you have the Target app, and
I remember telling you about this Angie at the time,
(13:13):
I don't have it, but she does. You look up
something in the app, and let's say Angie's sitting on
the couch here at home looking up a new vacuum
or whatever. It says it's one hundred dollars. You go
to the couch, it's one hundred dollars. You get to
the parking lot and you pull it up. All of
a sudden, it's one hundred and ten dollars, one hundred
and twenty dollars. Because they have you there in the store,
(13:33):
they have you closer. They know you're closer to making
that purchase because you got your map, your location on
on your app. So I always say recommend turn your
location off for these apps because it's another way they
track you, and they track over your purchasing habits. As
things are going more online shopping every single day, be
it from groceries to be it to action figures more
(13:55):
online shenanigans are going on to get your money. That's
what they're trying to do. The old brick and order
still is there with you know, price declines, price raises,
price drops, weekly ads. That stuff's all there. But online
plays games as well. We're seeing it at Target right
now with some of the ww Mattel Legends, some of
the ones like Rick Rud, he's a little bit higher
than some of the other ones, and it has to
(14:16):
do with amount of stock status. That's one thing we're
seeing as well. The online price was the online price.
Now they realize, well, now, Rick Rud, we got ten
left in the warehouse. We got two hundred Brett Hearts.
Let's keep Brett Hard at twenty dollars. But Rick Rude,
he's almost sold out. He's gonna be gone. He'll be
gone forever. Let's get all we can out of that
Rick Rude figure. Let's raise it to twenty four ninety
(14:37):
nine and get that extra five dollars. Because it's limited stock,
people will pay it. Maybe we won't sell as many
as quick, but we'll sell it. We'll get five dollars more.
It is what it is. You're gonna start seeing that
across the board from all these different retailers, And like
I said, when you get the GEO locating on or
whatever you get in that parking lot, they know they
basically have you. Or even worse, you're inside the star,
(14:58):
they know they have you. So you're stuck to the
stoor price or even stuck to higher prices depending. So
the fact of the matter is it's all about algorithms.
A perfect example the other day, Angie, I was booking
my flights for San Diego, coming in hot to San
Diego Comic Con this year. I looked the night before,
I think it was Friday night last week. I was looking.
It was like ninety two dollars for a flight, an
(15:19):
incredible deal. I was like, oh my gosh, I'm going
to book my ticket first thing in the morning, so
I get up early early, it was going to book
my ticket. Well, guess what. I went to book my ticket.
It was up to like one hundred and twenty two dollars.
So that's what happens there is and I swear it
happens with flights all the time. Good Front of the Channel,
Jeff George and I were talking about this. Whenever you
look at a flight that seems to be the lowest
at the time, and then you go back to it.
(15:40):
They know you're wanting it, they know you're eager for it,
so they raised it a little bit more. I swear
it's all algorithms. At the end of the day. It's
all about those algorithms. So you gotta be careful what
you're doing. And it'd be interesting thing for science if
you could do it on the data on your cell
phone and then do it on your Wi Fi. See
if you get the same pricing just depending on that.
I don't know. It's an interesting tool, but we're going
to see more and more of that in the future.
(16:02):
Amazon seems to be really doing it right now on
a lot of up and down pricing, and then targets
now are doing it. As things start dwindling down, they're
going to charge a little bit more. So be careful
out there. As we always say on the channel on
the podcast as well, gotta get a deal. Do whatever
you can. Like I said on eBay, put it in
your cart or put it in your watch list. You'll
(16:22):
probably get an offer if you're lucky Amazon. Stick in
your cart, sit on it for a while, see what happens.
You got other places out there that maybe they'll have
a discount as time goes on. It's just a waiting
game and trying to buy before things run out. That's
always the dangerous thing. So in an interesting time in
this surge pricing here, no matter which way you do it,
just hopefully, like my wife, you get a deal, and
(16:44):
you got to get a deal out there.
Speaker 3 (16:45):
So there it all as fails, you can just have
your wife return it.
Speaker 2 (16:48):
That is we read behind. That's the other thing I
do is I'll pre order, like a Neca haul of
fon Turtle. I'll order it and then two days later
I find it in the store and then you can't
cancel it. So it comes in the mail and I'll
have you just go take it back.
Speaker 3 (17:01):
Well, Target's annoying.
Speaker 4 (17:02):
They only let you price match for like a week,
but we have one hundred and twenty days turn.
Speaker 2 (17:06):
Yes, so you gotta do all the all the ship
a lot of Shenanigans, a lot of shenanigans. So and
that's where the shenanigan started this week with the Incredible
Hulk being search pricing on Amazon. But Angie in a
plot twist, now it's time for Figure of the Week. Alright, Angie,
(17:35):
it's time for Figure of the Week, one of your
absolute favorite segments. Of course, I got comfy and she
got comfy. She's sitting back, She's ready to go take
your top offsa a while. We'll be okay with that.
Nobody's gonna complain except those no good YouTube sensors. That's
what they're gonna do. Angie's gonna do a Patreon exclusive
one where she's gonna do the episode topless. It's gonna
be amazing. That'll be quite the one. It might be
(17:55):
the most viewed video it could be.
Speaker 3 (17:57):
But I won't even need to talk.
Speaker 2 (17:58):
I won't even need to talk. But here we are, Angie,
Figure of the Week. And this one, I guess relates
to what we were just talking a little bit about,
because we were talking about the Incredible Hulk Maximum Hulk
for Marvel Legends Surge pricing and picking up over at
DJC Collectibles cheap plug for them. But the Incredible Hulk
is actually the figure of the Week this week, and
this week I picked this one because there is a
(18:19):
little bit of news out of this company. Here. It
is Incredible Hulk from Diamond Select Marvel Select, which I've
always called him here a big beefy Hulk, and Angie
my absolute favorite incredible Hulk figure of all time, at
least as of right now. I love this Hulk. It
came out a couple of years ago, just an all
timer of a Hulk, and this is what I think
of when I close my eyes, laid it back, and
(18:41):
I think of the incredible Hulk. This is my Hulk.
I love how big and beefy it is. And the
cool thing about Hulk is he can be different sizes.
So this works with your Marvel Legends, works obviously with
your other Diamond Select Marvel Select figures, put it in
with your McFarland's. It's a very versatile Hulk, so this
one works a lot for me. A favorite of mine.
There's also a red Hull version of this, but that's
where it's going to end. Unfortunately. Is the word did
(19:03):
finally come this week that Diamond Select Marvel Select. But
Diamond Select the one that manufactures it delivers comic books,
all kinds of stuff. It's a big, big retail arm
has filed for bankruptcy, is going out of business. They
could not find a buyer. A buyer fell through it's
the end of the road, Jack, and don't you look back.
No more, no more, no more, is what I've been told.
(19:25):
So there's no more Marvel Select figures. Marvel sleckt up
and down. Some really good, some a little bit rough. Obviously.
The bigger figures are one I like, I'm waiting to
see are the Annihilist figure. I guess that's never going
to come out now. I'm not exactly sure, but I
believe it. Yeah, I know you are. Yes, I broke
this news to you. I've been keeping it from Angie
for a while. I just didn't want her to be
you know, her mood ruined her stuff. I wanted it
(19:46):
to just be here today. So you got her natural
reaction how thrilled she was about this. But we also
know from Diamond Select they have statues like the aw
statues we got Sting. I think there was a John Moxley,
a Brian Danielson, seem Punk, there was some of that
kind of stuff. There was a lot of things out
there for action figure collectors, comic collectors, you name it.
So another one bites the dust. We had some tough
(20:09):
Super seven news as well, so things are getting really,
really tough. Right now with all the tariffs and the
tariffs going on out in the world, and a lot
of that is being used for other reasons, and we've
talked about that and the Toy News on the of
course YouTube channel as well. There's a lot of shenanigans
going around and a lot of people using exclude excuses
for tariffs, and obviously there is some excuses that are
(20:30):
brought off by the tariffs as well. But it's a
kind of a murky area we're in right now in
collectibles and I guess you could say across the board,
but specifically for the results of this channel. Obviously action figures,
but definitely murky waters and could be interesting to see
who last, who falls. That's been kind of the talk
the last couple of months. Some of these companies, especially
(20:51):
the smaller ones, aren't going to make it through, but
even the bigger ones like Diamond Select and now we're
seeing Super seven, who's not quite Marvel and Hasbro going
through some struggles as well. It's just an interesting time
that we're going to keep track of of course in
the Toy News on my YouTube channel, and maybe a
dash or two in the Kyle Peterson Show, but not
too much for Angie's sake, of course, yeah, exactly riveting.
But if you don't have this hulk diamonds like marble
(21:14):
sluck figure, I strongly recommend it an all timer if
there ever was one. So that Angie, that is the
figure of the week.
Speaker 3 (21:21):
We love a figure that doesn't even stand.
Speaker 2 (21:23):
Too Yeah he doesn't no stand needed.
Speaker 3 (21:25):
But why didn't you just like take this off and
go for the georts? You know?
Speaker 4 (21:28):
He ripped through them, you know, but like you could
have just ripped a little bit off hip through.
Speaker 2 (21:32):
But there it is. But Angie. Now it's time for
Angie to really shine. And it is Memorial Day weekend
as we're filming this right now. So Angie, it is
time to try new foods. It might taste good.
Speaker 5 (21:47):
All right, Angie, it's time to try new foods because
it might taste good.
Speaker 2 (21:58):
And Angie's back again. In two weeks in a row,
we got all the new flavors coming out of Angie.
What do we got this week?
Speaker 3 (22:04):
Two weeks in a row. We have the same thing.
Speaker 2 (22:06):
Two weeks in a row. And I figured this or pringles,
Oh my gosh, what you pop? You can't stop? I think,
is what they say. With these limited edition ones.
Speaker 4 (22:13):
Grilled beer brought what kind of beer? And beer can
chicken both Miller.
Speaker 2 (22:19):
Light beer canned chicken and grilled what grilled beer brought.
So two weeks in a row with Pringles, Pringles coming
out with all the new stuff, and I guess you
try it once and then you move on from it.
But h Miller Light not really my beer of choice.
You have Miller Light girl. No, no, I was a
Coors Light guy when I used to drink way back when,
(22:41):
so I don't really drink beer, so you do, though
you were drinking lighting Googles. I think she was drinking O.
Speaker 4 (22:47):
Every time it warms up, I'm thinking, I'm a beer person,
and I buy like a six pack and then it
takes me all summer to get through it, and I
realized I don't really like drinking.
Speaker 2 (22:54):
You get a six pack in Angie. You won't believe
what goes on, but Inner Sting Twosome here, of course,
to kickoff the Memorial Day weekend as we're filming right now.
Obviously it's past but it's the same kind of magic
going on. But this kind of makes sense. You were
firing up the grill. Now you got the beer canned chicken.
You got the grilled beer brought. And I think I
talked about last week like I brought I like once
(23:16):
a year basically, and I think I got my fill
last weekend. I made a few on the grill. Maybe
at the end of the day.
Speaker 3 (23:20):
You actually put a beer can within like the cavity
of the chicken.
Speaker 2 (23:24):
I never had that. Yeah, it helps it out. I've
had it before, and the beer all gets smoked off.
I never have the beer taste in that. It's just
more of a it's all for show.
Speaker 3 (23:32):
Crack the can and shove the yeah.
Speaker 2 (23:34):
Kind of for show is what it is. And then
beer brods. I think a lot of people do put
their brots in like they boil them in the beer
or whatever it is what they do so interesting with pringles.
Pringle can, of course always interesting. And I wish they'd
make the pringle can a little bit bigger because my hand,
once you get down to here, I can never get
my hand in there. I don't know why they make
these a little bit thicker. Are these thinner? Too thick
(23:55):
for you?
Speaker 3 (23:56):
You could take this whole thing fingers and extremely skinny.
Speaker 2 (23:59):
Hands, so you could take the this whole thing, no problem.
You wouldn't like any more girth or anything to it.
It's perfect, way too much on earth. Really. I bet
you can make it disappear with your hand. I'm sure
you could, but I can never get my hand down here,
and then you're trying to do the slide out there,
and the problem is you got these crumbs going everywhere.
So we've had the same pringles can probably long since
before either of us were alive, and most of you,
(24:21):
I think it's time for the evolution of the pringle.
Can maybe make it a little bit wider so you
can get your hands in there, and guess what, Pringles.
If you do do that, you can probably go through
a can faster, which means more repeat purchases. Just saying
from a retail genius right here.
Speaker 3 (24:35):
Now they have the family size, so it's even taller.
Speaker 2 (24:38):
They're like a party like the party size or something.
I saw those in the stores this week, so that
was interesting.
Speaker 4 (24:44):
We smoked the Philly cheese steak from last week, but
the hot dog's still in there.
Speaker 2 (24:47):
Yeah, nobody likes the hot dog. And I actually took
some of those Philly cheese steak as I was waiting
in the parent pickup line, and I actually ate through them,
and I was disgusted with myself when I was eating them,
I said, my breath is just terrible. They're not even
that good. But once again, got to get a deal.
I'm not gonna waste these. I'm gonna get a hot dog. Yeah,
that's the thing. The rats take all the junk. Never,
(25:09):
they'll poop and pee all over my desk. All right,
we're gonna TRYI grilled beer brought is our first one.
We're gonna rate it out of five here, of course,
gotta get it the smell test.
Speaker 3 (25:19):
What does that smell like? It's got a very distinct smell.
Speaker 2 (25:22):
Wow, I can't believe how much smell they popped into
this thing.
Speaker 3 (25:26):
It's like a very distinctive smell.
Speaker 2 (25:28):
But I don't know what it is either. But it's
not beer brought. But it is extremely extremely potent.
Speaker 6 (25:35):
Yea, I go for me dog. Really, I hate it.
Speaker 3 (25:43):
It's very smoky.
Speaker 2 (25:47):
I hate it. I don't know what it tastes like.
I guess maybe Miller like, I don't know. It's not
that bad. I always take two of them to try.
Speaker 4 (25:57):
It's I get like a barbecue taste. It's kind of smoky,
got a little tang on the end. I mean it's edible,
but I would never buy this again. I'd get barbecue
or cheddar sour cream over this any day.
Speaker 3 (26:13):
Oh, I can pick up. It's like a barbecue, like
a smoky barbecue.
Speaker 2 (26:16):
I don't taste Miller Light, but I don't really remember
what Miller Lite tastes like. And I don't taste a
beer brot. I don't know what are you going to
rate it? Out of five? One for me too? And
that's being generous, So don't recommend that one. But now
beer canned chicken. Now, I like chicken more than brots,
(26:36):
and I think you do as well. But you've been
known to stuff a couple of brots down your mouth
time or two. But I do like chicken more. So
I'm hopeful that beer canned chicken'll at least get us
a two or something. Le's see what happens.
Speaker 3 (26:47):
They got a lot of seasoning on that one.
Speaker 2 (26:51):
These don't smell at all. I can't smell anything, So
it's wild the different smells between them. Look at you
just stuff in your mouth. All, let's go for it.
There you go. You went to two and one super
(27:12):
beer canned chicken. There's one of the words.
Speaker 1 (27:14):
I don't know.
Speaker 2 (27:16):
This tastes totally plain to me. The other one had
at least a flavor. I couldn't pinpoint it, but this
tastes plain. How much alcohols in these. There's one gram
of protein, one hundred and fifty calories in these as well,
six servings per container, about fourteen crisps. That poo poo
cocka poo poo COCKA wow.
Speaker 3 (27:35):
I don't like that. It's just like nothing but actually
gross at the same time.
Speaker 2 (27:42):
Both a one for me. Yeah, the beer brod actually
had a taste. I couldn't really pinpoint. Those just tasted
like plain pringles to me. I mean, he didn't have
a smell to him.
Speaker 3 (27:51):
They got one way better, not way better, but better.
Speaker 2 (27:55):
You're eating them, you're gonna add your broat and hot dog,
get all of them at you sprinkle the broth. Terrible.
I don't recommend them. So hopefully I guts saved you
guys some money. It's all about getting a deal here
on the channel, So hopefully I saved you some money.
If you want some pringles, go with the old favorites,
is what I would say, because you know how they
do it. They put off these new items all the time,
hoping to catch you and at least get one sale,
(28:15):
and then they move on from them. They're disappeared forever.
So rough go next week, we'll see what happens. I
did grab some new chips from a freedo la, so
we'll see. We might try those next week, or there
might be something else new that comes in and steals
our hearts and we try. Yeah, I am too. It's
been a rough couple of weeks, Pringles, what are we doing?
But we no? But Angie's in luck. I got something
(28:36):
tasty for you after the show, I'll let you know.
So there it is. That is trying new foods here,
of course, as we celebrate Memorial Day weekend, as we're
filming this once again. But now it's time for an
all time or a story and she's never heard it's
time for a story time with Kyle. All right, it's
(29:02):
time for story time with Kyle and Angie. Last week
was the first ever story time with Kyle least here
on the podcast. Is We're gonna bounce around between tales
from retail and story time with Kyle as we go
through the weeks. But it is the kickoff to summer
once again for Memorial Day. It's it's a Memorial Day
we've talked about in every single segment here. We're pumped
up for the weekend. I guess three days off, sure,
(29:23):
why not? Hopefully finished, it's already over five times, back
to back to the grind, back to the grind, for sure.
But whenever I think of the kickoff to summer, I
always remember back to my childhood. So a little story
time with Kyle right here, obviously, great time to get
out of school. That was always exciting. There's two days
of school left, there's one day of school left. I'm
(29:44):
free from school. I was one of those kids, like
most hopefully were, that wanted to get the heck out
of Dodge and get out of school and celebrate the summer.
You weren't crying, Oh, I was not crying like my kids.
My kids are hugging their teacher and crying. I'm like,
I didn't even say bye to my teacher. I bolted out.
I tried to climb out the windows. What I tried
to do, I had no time for any of that.
So you're like, get me out of here. I had
(30:06):
no time for school. That was the last thing I
wanted to do. But I'd be excited for summer. But unfortunately,
as a kid, my best friend who i'd hang out
with you lived around the corner, and you know, you
play in the neighborhood, you play and all that kind
of stuff. It was always a little bit bittersweet for
me because he had to leave come summertime. He would
leave for the whole summer, and his family owned like
(30:27):
a bar restaurant in the Ozarks, of course down in
I guess Missouri. I guess is where they are, southern Missouri.
So he'd be gone for the whole summer, and it's like,
it was bittersweet. It's great to be out of school,
but then your best buddy you hang out with, you
watch wrestling, play video games with, was leaving for the
whole summer, and it was weird. He was like eight, nine, ten, eleven,
twelve years old. He would leave every single summer and
(30:48):
he would go work in his family business. Now, one
thing you can do if you own a business, it's
not like child labor laws. Your kids can work for you.
So I think he busts tables and clean dishes and
did that stuff as a kid. Out there where I
was collecting cans and delivering the Shopper newspaper and putting
little things on people's door hooks for like lawn services,
(31:10):
to get paid as a little kid, to get some
spending money at like ten eleven, twelve years old. But
he was working in the kitchens down in the Ozark.
So I can only imagine how crazy that was. So
it was a little bit rough, and he would leave,
but he would come back, like with two weeks left
in the summer at the end of August. He would
come back before school starts, and it would be amazing
because he would get so much money working down there,
(31:31):
and he wouldn't spend it because he was down there
working in this restaurant all summer. I mean, just crazy
for a little kid. But he would come back with
thousands of dollars, like two or three thousand dollars for
the whole summer, and back when you're a kid, heck,
you give three thousand dollars to my kids, they'd be like,
oh my gosh. I'd be like, oh my gosh, if
somebody handed me three thousand dollars. Maybe I wouldn't be
too happy if I worked a whole summer. Though, for
(31:53):
three thousand dollars in those day and age, that'd be
a little bit rough for me. I don't know if
that math would check out, but back then, when you're
a kid, it definitely checked out. And it was always
really cool because his parents, for whatever reason, weren't like, hey,
put that three thousand dollars towards a college account, put
it towards saving for a car or something in the future.
They're like, it's your money, do whatever you want with it,
and oh boy, I'd be ready to go. So we
(32:15):
would go out and obviously he would pick up the
tab on everything, and we go out and spend and
just go crazy. Now put yourself back into the time here,
the eighties, nineties. Little kids, you don't have cars, you
have a bicycle. But instead we walked. So we walked
through the mall is what we did. It was the
old Valley West mall, of course. And I wanted to
say it was maybe three miles from our house, probably
(32:36):
from our neighborhood, maybe at least probably at least three miles.
I mean it was probably an hour long, longer than
an hour, I don't know. It was a long walk.
So it was it was far enough where you really
should get a ride. But you know what, we would
get up early that morning and he comes back in town.
He's got all the money. It's all fanned out here
like the million dollar man. It's just going there. He's
just full of it. I can't believe that, little kids,
(32:57):
he brings it all with him. Yeah, brought it all
with him. It would all be in there, beat his
pockets and everything. Just wild stuff, wild stuff. But we
walked the miles and miles to the mall. We hung
out the ma all day. And nowadays they'd say, you
nine year old kids can't be in the mall by yourself.
Get out of here. But back then they didn't care.
And we would go to the record store, the bookstore,
the KB Toys of the World, the Babbages and the
(33:19):
EB games and stuff, all game stores and all this
kind of stuff, and then you know, we'd get lunch
or would be all this, we'll get through it all here.
But we would go to this and he'd have all
this money and oh, yeah, you want an ice cream coat, Yeah,
I'll take an ice cream. You want to get lunch,
you want to get McDonald's, Yeah, let's get McDonald's and
we were just eating, just hanging out, and money was
no worry. It was an amazing thing. And he's just
(33:40):
throwing around because he doesn't care, because he doesn't is
what it is. But the reason we went to the mall,
and I believe it was Babbage's and that's an old
video game star back on the day. I don't think
it's around anymore. You've never even heard of it, No, Angie.
Not much of a player of course, at least in
video games, that's for sure. But we needed to go
to Babbage's because he had had his eye on this
before he left for the summer, and I did too.
(34:03):
I knew I wasn't going to get it, but he did.
And what did he want, Angie? Can you guess game? Bore? No?
Something you've never heard of? Once again, I don't know.
He really wanted to get a Turbo Graphics sixteen. You
ever heard of that?
Speaker 5 (34:16):
Like?
Speaker 2 (34:16):
What is a Turbo Graphics sixteen? I barely renders. It's
an old video game system. So it was like a
Nintendo or a Sega or something. It was one that
really didn't take off. But there was this game called Bonk,
and he thought Bunk was going to be a game changer.
It was like a little caveman kid with a huge
head and he would like monk all the animals and stuff.
But he wanted this Turbo Graphics sixteen and it was
(34:36):
probably like three hundred bucks and back then change, yeah,
it was pocket change. But that's what we did. He
wanted to get that Turbo Graphics sixteen. And one thing
I will say about him leaving for the whole summer.
One thing that was nice about it was he had
the Gi Joe Defiant, which was the huge space shuttle.
I had the aircraft carrier. He had the Defiant, a
huge space shuttle, and he said, hey, I'm leaving for
(34:57):
the summer. If you want to borrow it for the summer,
you can. So I got to have that in my
collection for the whole summer. So that was bittersweet my
friend leaving, but it was pretty nice in my playing
days to have the Defiant, to get to play with
that free of charge for the summer. The long story short,
we went to Bavages. He got the Turbographics sixteen. So
you imagine these two little kids and you got the
whole entertainment system. You know, you're carrying this thing around. Yeah,
(35:20):
it's a huge gaming couple. We didn't even fit in
a sack. I remember that we could even get a
sack for it because it was too big. So we're
lugging this thing around. You got a couple of games.
You got Bonk and some other game. So we're carrying
this around the mall. Then we go to KB and
we bought a few things there, and then there was
a baseball card shot or no. We walked across the
street there was a it was like a drug store.
(35:41):
It was called far More. You ever heard of far More?
I only remember that one location. I think it was
a chain, I'm not exactly sure. But we go over
to this far More and of course kids like toys,
they like video games. They also like trading cards, and
him and I were big into trading cards. He bought
a couple of boxes of NBA hoops back of the day,
so we got you know, it was like thirty two
packs of cards in a case, so we bought like
(36:03):
two of those. So of course we buy these, and
we get some candy, we get some drinks all and
we're just we're you have so much stuff we're carrying
and It's kind of like those bicycle riders that you know,
they drive out, they ride their bike one hundred miles
one direction, and then they forget, wait a minute, I
gotta drive one hundred miles back. And that's where we were.
We're out there all day long. We're carrying all this stuff,
(36:24):
you know, the thing, and it's all heavy. We're little kids,
and for some reason, I don't know who, it probably
wasn't my idea, but ahead to have been his. Hey,
let's sit on the curb in the parking lot and
let's open up all these packs of cards. So we
sat there with two cases of cards, and we're opening them,
you know, all the packs of cards that we're going
through them all and looking at oh, we got this,
we got that, we got this, and then you know,
(36:45):
all the rappers was easy enough to throw away in
the garbage outside of the pharmacy. But then we have
all these cards, and we remember the box of card
came in like a you know, a shoe box, saying
it lifted up so you can put them in there.
But now we got all these loose cards, and we
have the turbographics sixteen, and we got couple extra toys.
The extra video games, a few things he bought, like
some clothes. Remember he bought a pair of shoes as well.
(37:06):
And we're carrying all this stuff around and we're literally
an hour plus walk from our house. And no, there's
no cell phone back in here, there's no beepers, there's
nothing you can do. There's nothing we can do. So
we start walking and we're tired. It's hot in the summer,
it's August, it's sweltering, it's like ninety degrees. We're dying.
We're just absolutely dying. And so what we did is
(37:28):
it ended up being by my high school many years later.
But there was this big bushes There was like a
dentist office, and there was all these bushes around it,
you know those bushes that are kind of five feet tall,
big circular bushes, and you can't really see underneath them.
And we were like, we're never gonna We're never gonna
get all this stuff home. It's just too far and
there's no way to get a hold anybody. So we
made the decision right then and there that we were
(37:49):
gonna hide all the stuff in the bushes. Is what
we're gonna do. The turbographics sixteen, the extra pair of shoes,
all the candy, everything we ended up picking up. We
stuffed it underneath the bushes, and we just sat there like,
what do we do now? What do we do now?
And we decided, now this is a full day event.
We left the house at like eight am and them
all opened at like ten, and it took us a
(38:10):
while to get there, but we were excited. We needed
to get there. We wanted to go get a cinabon
hours later. No one was worried either, Yeah, worried. No, No,
you were got Nobody even knew we left. I don't
think so. And this is wild too, the old Johnny
Gosh story right in the same kind of area too,
So who knows. We could have been kidnapped. That's a
story for another story time with Kyle. But we were
sitting there and we decided we got a hoof at
(38:31):
home because we need to get back with a parent
to help us get all this stuff, because we just
spent hundreds of dollars at he did, I did, he did,
and we had to get home soon. So what do
we do? We were about halfway home. We just hid
everything and we sprinted. We sprinted and ran all the
way home and we were huffing and puffing, and we
got to my house because my house was closer, and luckily,
(38:54):
I think my dad was just pulling in the driveway
from a hard day at work, of course, in time,
suit and tie. Of course, that's what it was back then.
And I remember running up to Dad and I tried
to in all intense purposes. I talked to my dad
the other dad. I said, Dad, I want you to
come on the channel and talk through this story about
what was your thought of these kids. And he refused,
(39:15):
said he wasn't gonna be on the podcast, wasn't gonna
tell the story. But I think he said something like
you guys are idiots or something. That was what he said.
But we were like, Dad, Dad, you gotta take us.
We gotta go. We gotta go to by the school
and pick all this stuff up. So we slamm in
my dad's car. We drive to the spot where we
got the bushes where we hit everything we got, So, Angie,
(39:35):
what do you think happened when we got to the bushes.
Speaker 3 (39:38):
Oh God, I think everything was still there.
Speaker 2 (39:40):
Everything was still there. It was a different time in place,
of course, However, there was a little bit of a travesty,
and it was very disappointing for two card collector kids.
Of course, obviously cards you want them in good condition,
you don't want them bent up. What happened in that
time frame, kind of a storm came. I don't remember
rain of any kind, but the wind picked up, and
(40:03):
what happened to all these cards? We had him in there,
but for whatever reason, they blew open and the parking
lot of like the dentist office, we hit everything into.
There was cards throughout the whole parking lot, and we're
just sitting there losing our mind. Like obviously we probably
just didn't put him away very well, but cards all
over the party line. So we're running, even my dad's
helping out. We're picking up all these cards out of
(40:25):
the parking lot, put them back in there, and of
course a lot of them dinged and dented. Very unfortunate times,
of course, But thankfully the Turbo Graphics sixteen was the
one we were really really nervous around. We needed to
play BNK that night. We needed a hot game of BNK.
We needed a round. Yeah, and I don't even think
we had time for a shower. We had to get
into bonking just kind of like you and me, we
just got to get down to bunking right away. Shower
(40:47):
first game, real clean, yes, of course. But yeah, Bank
was an all timer of a game that's not very
fondly remember. You never even heard of it. So that
tells you about BNK. That tells you about Turbo Graphics sixteen.
But we played it all. I don't know if you
ever bought any more games for tuber Graphics sixteen. I
think most people moved on to Super Nintendo and say, Sega, Yeah,
I don't think it lasted. But Bonk is still there.
(41:10):
You google him, you'll find a little bit about Bank.
But it was a wild time for two kids, just
running crazy on the town with really feeling like unlimited funds.
And even funner for me, I didn't have to work
for it. I just got to be a part of
the celebration. But a wild time, a bit of a
scary time, and man, we were sweating it. And thankfully
my dad always assaulted the earth, of course, willing to
drive us there to give us those figures or the
(41:32):
cards and the Tribograph sixteen and the shoes. Don't forget
the shoes as well.
Speaker 3 (41:36):
Pretty sad. The most wind and dine you've ever been,
is my ten year old.
Speaker 2 (41:40):
It was. It was the most wine and dine I've
ever been. And I hope there's a challenge for you
in there to wind and dine me sixty ninety Gaby two.
But hopefully one of these days you'll do some things.
And maybe I've been thinking about re enacting this moment
one of these days as well, hiding something like that,
see if we can make that happen. And I've told
this story to our daughters before and they just look
(42:00):
at me like I'm from a different planet. First off,
they would never get up in the morning. They don't
care how much money is involved. They wouldn't walk to
the mall. They'd be too scared to walk to the mall.
Different times in the eighties and nineties, different times. And
if you lived it, you know all about it, of course,
and you know a little bit about it. Living out
in the country kind of she'd go slop the hogs
and feed the chickens. Maybe not maybe, oh my god,
(42:22):
but there it is an interesting time. And whenever I
think of summertime, especially my childhood, that was one of
those ones that really stuck. It stuck out to me
all these years later, here you go. So there it
is story time with Kyle. But now you've got an
extra special one twenty year anniversary. It's time for album
of the week. Alrightedge, it's time for album of the week.
(42:47):
And this week we got something special. And in all honesty,
friends of ours, friends of ours, here we're talking about today.
It is the band the Sound of Virchin. Now not
everybody knows the Sound of urch and I understand that
a deep cut band and taking it back to my
high school college days, I was a huge fan and
still him to this day, of the band called Ween.
And most people have maybe heard Ween, maybe seen the
(43:09):
It's Pat movie Ween and all timer. I'm a longtime fan,
seen so many concerts over the years, always enjoyed it.
But when you really love bands, you like the ancillary bands,
the bands that are the offshoots from that a little bit.
And one of those bands was it is the Sound
of Urchin. Now Sound of Urchin celebrating twenty year anniversary
here in the month of May of their album The Diamond.
(43:30):
And and she's actually got the Sound of Urchins shirt on.
She did. Apparently it's got quick change here.
Speaker 3 (43:36):
I think's twenty years old.
Speaker 2 (43:37):
I can't believe I even.
Speaker 1 (43:38):
Got it on.
Speaker 2 (43:38):
Twenty years ago. We got that shirt of course, But
their album The Diamond, I would say their most popular
album to this day. They've had a few more albums,
but they are Ween adjacent, as Dean Ween did help
produce their first album, You Are the Best. Definitely check
that out. Check out the Orange GP, Jack and Diane
and EP Rejoice album is amazing. A lot of good
stuff from Tomato, the Reverend, b Ill, Doodoo Brown, Scottie Chalk,
(44:04):
my Boy, Robbie sea Hag and last time I saw
Robbie sea Hagg, he got me into Sean Lennon's concert. Yes,
John Lennon sun as Robbie sea Hagg was also Sean
Lennon's guitars, so I got in there, got to hang
out with Robbie a little bit. It's been a while
since we've seen the sound of Ursuin, though they have
not toured. They've kind of been on a hiatus with
a few shows every once in a while here and there.
(44:24):
But this year, celebrating the twentieth anniversary of their album
The Diamond, which is the album of the Week this
week and absolute favorite album, now, Angie, how many times
do you think we saw the sound of Erchin on
the Diamond tour.
Speaker 3 (44:36):
We were like groopy.
Speaker 2 (44:37):
We were we had no kids, we had nothing really
going on, and nothing going on. We were just really bored.
But we would just say, Hey, they're playing Lacrosse, Wisconsin,
and let's just drive up to Lacrosse and we would
go see him. And then oh, they're playing in Minnesota tomorrow.
Let's just go see him in Minnesota. And then we'd
go to Omaha, we go to Des Moines, we go,
we go all over Illinois, no matter what. We even
went to New York City. Yes, New York City. We
(45:00):
went to their boat show in twenty twenty five, of course,
the Diamond boat show there, and it.
Speaker 3 (45:05):
Was he said, we went in twenty twenty five.
Speaker 2 (45:08):
Oh oh yeah, two thousand and five is where we went. Yeah,
that's right, not twenty five, that's this year, two thousand
and five. We went to New York City and plot twists.
We're going next to plot twist. They might have one,
who knows, But we went out there. We did go
to their boat show. It was like a boat basically,
and they played the show on there. We went around
the Statue of Liberty all over the place and got
to rock out on the sea, I guess is what
(45:30):
we did.
Speaker 3 (45:30):
I remember going on that boat, but I don't remember
them playing. I think I was pretty total.
Speaker 2 (45:34):
She was annihilated, just annihilated. Oh man. But it was
a wild time in New York City, you know, cruising around,
seeing all kinds of crazy people out and about and stuff.
A lot of good times with the sound of urch
And I don't remember really much around that New York
City thing. I remember, you know. We stayed at a hotel. Yeah,
we stayed at a hotel. I remember that was our
(45:54):
first time in New York City, and I remember just
being it was August, so it was extremely hot, and
I remember it was like garbage day when we got there,
and I just couldn't leave all the garbage piled up
on the streets, and it was super hot. There was
no wind, obviously a bunch of buildings downtown, so all
the smog from the traffic and stuff just kind of
captured on your face. And I'll never forget after a
(46:15):
full day walking exploring the city, going back to the hotel,
getting like a washcloth and wiping my face and just
pure black from like the smog. It was almost like
I was diving in charcoal or something like that. I
just remember being gross. And I remember I only brought
one extra shirt, saying, oh, I want you to change. Literally,
I wanted to change about five times a day because
(46:36):
it was super hot and you were super dirty from
all that. Obviously, we bought some shirts from the band
and stuff, so we did have a few extra shirts
along the way. But it was a wild time in
New York City, a wild time on the boat, and
a wild time with the sound of Urchin. And I
remember the sound of Urchin back. And we're gonna tell
this story here. My birthday is next month, and I'm
going to tell the story of my twenty first birthday.
And I remember being very excited to get Rolling Rock Beer.
(46:59):
That was gonna be my first ever purchase because the
sound of Urchin were in the Rolling Rock Beer commercials
back then. So we were very excited about that, or
I was excited. I didn't know you at the time,
but I'm sure you would have been excited if you
were there. But I remember wanting to buy that that night,
and I did. In a plot twist, we'll explain that
here in about a month on the show, so be
ready for my story of my twenty first birthday. But
(47:21):
a lot of good times with the Sound of Ersin,
a lot of amazing stuff, some hard rock, heavy metal.
I mean, they've had Jack Black perform with them before.
They've been known for a lot of amazing Rush covers,
Slayer covers as well as their own material. Definitely not
all heavy metal though, but definitely worth checking out. If
you're a fan of Ween, you're gonna enjoy the Diamond.
A lot of great songs on the Diamond album. There's
(47:43):
even a deluxe edition all these years later, Howling at
the Moon last December, White Dove, People in the Clouds,
the Jack O'Lantern, and I remember during this album cycle
they were actually on the Craig Ferguson Show once upon time.
I remember that was such a huge deal to be
able to watch them on Craig Ferguson. So Tomato obviously
is one of the cool things about the sound of
Urchin and not many bands have is the drummer is
(48:05):
also the singer that is extremely hard to do and
the sound of Verurchin. I've seen him perform for hundreds
of people and We've seen him perform for like ten
people in a bar before, and they give you the
same show no matter which way you do it. So
Tomato all time leader. It is Tomato, the leader of
the band, the drummer there. But look him up on
social media. Look up the sound of Urchin. I'm guessing
most people have never heard of them. The Diamonds amazing
(48:28):
album You're the Best, The Jack and Dianap is a
favorite of mine as well. A lot of good stuff
to check out, Angie. I don't know if you have
anything to happen all that. I just rambled and ran.
Speaker 4 (48:37):
The shows were the best though, because they would play
the album top to bottom.
Speaker 2 (48:40):
Yep.
Speaker 4 (48:41):
He wouldn't stop, I mean, and it sounded exactly like
the album and he would go song to song, no breaks.
Speaker 3 (48:46):
He was just pouring so by the end, and.
Speaker 2 (48:50):
It was cool that we were friends with them all.
I mean. There was a lot of good times, a
lot of good times after the show, hanging out, partying,
you know, going around, going to grab dinner or whatever.
It was just a really cool thing, just a lot
of cool stuff. Over the years I go to see them.
I remember it was like my twenty fifth birthday I
remember we went down to Lawrence, Kansas and saw IM
performed down there once upon a time. Just a lot
of cool stuff, and one time it was really awesome
(49:11):
is they let me do the set list, And that
was one thing I loved about Sound of Urchin, And
I love bands like that that play a different songs
every night. They don't just have it's gonna be the same.
I love Iron Maiden, but it's the same set list
every single night for the tour Sound of Urchin all
over the place. Obviously they're gonna play a lot of
the same songs, but there's ten songs in it to
change out every single night. And I remember they let
(49:32):
me do the set list one time, and I thought
that was so cool that I got to create the
set list, put it in the order I wanted it
to be as well. So a lot of fun around that,
but just a lot of good times of our early
times together when we first just met each other, first
couple of years of our relationships, really just hanging out,
following them around, going around to the Midwest and just
other shenanigans throughout the time. So I can't believe it's
(49:53):
twenty years since that album came out.
Speaker 3 (49:55):
I can't believe this shirt. I got this shirt on ye.
Speaker 2 (49:59):
Take it off? Take it off? Why not? But and
this is one of the softest shirts ever. I still wish.
I wish more companies use this material. Whatever it is,
it's an amazing soft shirt. I mean, it's just amazing,
just amazing. Shot shout of that shirt company, whatever it is.
Speaker 3 (50:13):
If I didn't have that spandex in it, I wouldn't.
Speaker 2 (50:15):
Be who knows, but there it is. I'd say, give
the sound of Urchin. Do you have a favorite sound
of Urchin song? If you had to choose, you know,
I'm terrible with people in the clouds bomby Dracula Bite.
Speaker 3 (50:25):
Well, my favorite lyric is you used to bring the sugar,
Now the lump is in your throat. I always love that.
Speaker 4 (50:30):
I thought that was such an interesting way to say,
like a turn of like how our relationship goes from
like so sweet to He's a very unique lyricist. He
says something at face value, it can seem kind of
like cheesy and funny, but if you really like think
about it.
Speaker 3 (50:43):
Look at you, it's meaningful.
Speaker 2 (50:45):
Angie get deep the older I get.
Speaker 4 (50:47):
Him like he was really on a like anxiety, bipolar
you top to bottom in this album. Angie always wants
a little bit deeper. He always wants a little deeper,
that's for sure.
Speaker 2 (50:58):
I'm a lyricist, I always I just can't wait till
we drop our first album. Hopefully people people will enjoy
that as well. But we're working on it. We're working
on it. First album, the first album, WHOA.
Speaker 3 (51:13):
Our first recording.
Speaker 2 (51:15):
So there it is. We find the Diamond Sound of
Urchin twentieth anniversary this week for the Album of the Week.
And now, Angie, we got to take it home. We
got to bring home this episode of the podcast. All right, Angie,
time to take it home. Time to finish up episode
(51:37):
number nine of The Kyle Peterson Show Memorial Day Edition.
I guess we'll call this one here. But we do
have a few more reviews to read this week, and
I'll read these reviews. Always appreciate anybody that gives it
a five star review, of course from your podcast platform
of choice. And we will give away a copy of
the book here in a second. But I want to
just read some of these reviews. This one coming in
(51:58):
from Brian Breaker, good friend in the channel. Shout to
the old TV toy cast out there. Brian Breaker says
it's Cape Season, and isn't it? It always is excellent
podcast and I love all the figure in boxing to
keep up the good work. So shout to Brian over
there means what Cape season? Cape Lando Calarissian in Cape Season.
I'll have to fill her in later. I guess she
(52:20):
don't know about Cape season. She has not watched any
of my videos. That's for sure right there, that's true.
Next review comes from Jonathan Hodapp five stars, one skin
angy I watch on your YouTube instead of Apple podcasts,
but always tons of laughs. As one of those fourteen
year old kids who worked in Maine departments in a
grocery store as well, the tales of your time there
bring back so many memories. How we survived no one
(52:43):
will know, lol, But great pod and keep the podstreak alive.
Can we make it to ten double digits next week
We'll find out if we can't do that there and
then the last review this week here from Shane Burkett.
All kill her, no filler like a young some forty
one back in the day. I've been a fan of
Kyle's content and a Patreon remember for a while so
it's awesome to get more content from him, especially when
(53:05):
he covers new and different subjects away from our beloved
action figures. Angie is an added bonus, and dare I
say that they are the modern dynamic duo? Oh how
about that Batman and Robin. I wish I had two
more hands. I could give four thumbs up. There you go,
but that's where the toes come in. Just as Todd McFarland,
he'll tell you you get the toes there, and Shane
(53:27):
Burke at you were last, but you were the one
that drew the name out of the hat. I will
send a copy of the book your way. So I
appreciate the support out there, Appreciate everybody that picked up
the book, Appreciate everybody that's doing the reviews out there.
And we'll do some more giveaways in the future as well.
But quite the week out there in the review, so
I appreciate all that. Ang's still waiting for Angie's review
of the podcast as well. Hopefully she'll give it five stars.
(53:49):
We'll see what ends up happening there. But now Angie,
it is time for the question of the week. Angie
taken away. You get to read it put on.
Speaker 4 (53:57):
Your cheaters, SGD underscored toys down under, Kyle, can you
give me some music recommendations? I like the most known
Motorhead songs, Ace of Spades in the game. What other
Motorhead stuff might I like? I mostly enjoy new wave
British and power metal, but dabble and other genres. Not
a fan of black metal though.
Speaker 2 (54:15):
Yeah I'm not a I'm not Angie can do it
now you think of death metal, but I don't like
black metal either. If I can't read the band's logo,
I don't want to p any part of it. I
don't think I'll show you later. I'll show you a
little Cape season. I'm gonna show Angie the world later
tonight is what I'm gonna do. I'm gonna give you
a run of the world of all kinds. You're gonna
find out so many experiences and two two minutes. But
(54:41):
I have this question here as Spades. Obviously, I am
very biased to Motorheads, so you can't go wrong anywhere
across the board from Motorhead if you ask me. But
some of my favorite albums and Ace of Spades isn't
even my favorite album, it's their most popular song, of course,
their most known song. But not shortly after that, there
was an album called Another Perfect Day. And I was
only a year or so old when that came out,
(55:04):
so it's been a while obviously, and I wasn't a
fan when I was one years old, believe it or not.
But a lot of hardcore fans did not like that album.
They felt Motorhead changed your sound too much. But now
all these years later, a lot of people love Another
Perfect Day, so I strongly recommend that one. There a
little thin Lizzy influence in that one as well, but
that is definitely one to check out. There's an album
(55:24):
before that called rock and Roll, which I do enjoy
as well. You really can't go wrong with the original
trio of Motorhead way back when. However, even the later
trio with Mickey d and Phil Campbell still amazing stuff.
Bad Magic, the World Is Yours. Some of the later
Lemmyan Motorhead stuff right before it was the end of
the show really good stuff as well. But I'd say
(55:44):
give rock and Roll a spin. Another Perfect Day, Bad
Magic the World is Yours Hammered. You probably heard that
one as well. It's got the game on there. If
you got the deluxe edition. I also should bring up
nineteen sixteen. I think a lot of people outside of
Ace of Spades think the Motorhead album nineteen sixteen is
probably one of their absolute best, and it really is
right up there. So there's a lot of good stuff
(56:04):
in the Motorhead catalog, a lot of albums, a lot
of live albums. There's a lot to keep you busy,
that's for sure. I envy new fans that are just
getting into Motorhead now that you're just gonna listen to
all that stuff for the first time. Hearing it for
the first time ever is pretty cool. But also whenever
I hear new wave of British heavy metal, and that's
my absolute favorite. So many gems in there, so many
forgotten classics, possibly in my opinion, the most underrated album
(56:28):
of all time. And nobody's ever heard of the band.
Nobody's ever heard the album, but I strongly recommend it.
It is the band called Demon, not Night Demon, but Demon,
and the album is Night of the Demon, So it
gets a little confusing. I starts, We're a night Demon
channel over here as well, but Demon, Night of the
Demon in absolute all timerer one of the greatest albums
(56:49):
of all time. If you've never heard that album, I
strongly recommend it, and I do think that album would
have been a lot bigger than it was. But the
album cover being like hands on a Grave and stuff,
it looks like what you think of with death metal.
It's like Cannibal Corpse, and I think the album cover
turned a ton of people off to it. But the
music sounds nothing like the album cover. It's a very
(57:09):
strange headspace dynamic right there. But I strongly recommend Night
of the Demon by Demon as a big music choice.
And I can talk music all day long, but I'll
keep it at that.
Speaker 3 (57:19):
How about are you just take a right turn and
listen to Sound of Urchin like we were.
Speaker 2 (57:21):
Talking about I could. Yeah, we can go back to
the Sound of Urchin too. Shout out to my boy
Dudu Brown, Tomato, the Reverend b Ill and of course
Robbie c. Hag once upon time, Scottie Chalk as well.
Why not, We'll go on all day long. It's not
my man, Tomato is, one might say, But there it is, Angie.
That's episode nine. I think we got it all out
there on the table for everybody or nothing. No, not yet.
(57:42):
Not yeah, maybe later we'll see, but there it is, Angie.
Any final thoughts on this episode? Are you ready for
episode ten next week? And what can we do for
episode ten and anything special? We're gonna have to sit here
and think and storyboard something. It's a monumental milestone episode
ten here on our way to one hundred, and that's
or were quitting, so be ready.
Speaker 3 (58:01):
When I was making sure we were level, I was
sitting there and I thought it looked pretty cute there.
Speaker 2 (58:04):
Oh you want to switch and you run the show,
run it from here? I wouldn't mind seeing. Let's see
Angie run the show in sweatpams. We'll do that. Maybe
for episode one hundred, we'll have it where Angie runs
the whole show. I'm not even wearing any pants, or
I'm just wearing socks, nothing but socks hunder behind here.
Nobody will ever know. Nobody will know. But there it is, Angie.
(58:26):
Episode nine of the podcast. We'll do it again. We'll
be back next week with episode ten. Make sure you
check it out. Make sure you always thumbs up the video,
make sure you do get the five star reviews. I
did say. Check out the book, check out the Patreon
check out the YouTube channel memberships. Check out Angie's Only Fans.
You wish well it could be easily started. I'm sure.
I just don't know if you.
Speaker 3 (58:45):
I wish I had that money money.
Speaker 2 (58:47):
But yeah, you'd be one of those ones that start
the of and nobody pays, and you're like, man kidding me.
I did all this work and nobody or you got
you got one subscriber, and you have to do all
this work for just one person. That would be extra creepy.
And then a twist it was me. We're like, oh,
I'm gonna do all his work. I could have got
it all, I could have got it for free, but
I felt bad, so I wanted to pay some money.
(59:07):
I know that ghost. So there, make you feel better.
I'll make you feel better right here, Charlie Charley after
the show, I'll make you feel real better. We get
all this stuff off of here. But there it is
Angie for episode nine of The Kyle Peterson Show. We're
gonna both see you guys all real soon.
Speaker 4 (59:25):
What are we gonna DANCEE only gonna play
