I'm talking about our dads and it felt good man.

Oh yeah, yes, I don't. I don't talk about that stuff.
All that comes up.

Speaker 1 (02:11):
You want to watch the show. The Alancos Show YouTube

I hope you have a wet and sloppy day. How
about that ro I'll tell you what. I'll take it
in the spirit in which it was given and sloppy,
Thank you much? Sweet? And what else? Well, if you're
(02:35):
listening to us on that iHeartRadio app, boy, I hear
a lot of iHeartRadio app promotion promotional messages for the
Christmas format. Oh yeah, over there on Magic I hear
that quite a bit. So when no one's listening, you
have to tell them to listen. If you're not listening
to this program myever. Hey, Jennifer in Tucson, Arizona. She
(03:01):
Tucson at Azunya. She's one of our bureau chiefs out there.
And she goes again to Rob. We're talking about your
dad yesterday. Did you ever fight your dad like a fistfight?
I assume that's what she meant. I mean, otherwise she
would have said argument, right, I assume she means I
would have never. It would have never occurred to me
to lay hands on my own father. I mean, he
(03:23):
was a veteran, for Christ's sakes, right, you're a man
of letters. Occurred to me many a time. Really, my
father would have killed me where I stood, That's what
I mean. There would have been an Allen shaped hole
in the wall. Yeah, oh, absolutely, there's no question about that.
Jennifer said, my dad died when he was forty, and
I'm fifty, so I'm assuming I got my mom's jeans.
(03:43):
That is weird when you outlive a parent. I guess
how old was your dad again? Fifty eight fifty eight,
so a young man some time. Still, Yeah, my dad
was seventy some But you know, neither Rob nor I
fought our dads at one time. I think I told
the story once I.
Speaker 8 (04:02):
Gave him some lip and he said anytime, and I
said whatever. Dad walked outside, and I'll never forget. I
had on a my letterman's jacket from the football team
I played for, and I said something, and he backed
me all the way up to the fence in the
backyard and he grabbed my jacket and twisted his hands
(04:24):
into it, and he said, anytime, you want to try.
Speaker 1 (04:27):
Wow, And his face never changed.
Speaker 8 (04:29):
And he lifted me up off the ground and just
held me for about three seconds and put me back down.
Speaker 1 (04:33):
Yeah, And I said, I'm good. Yeah. My dad never
did that to me. I think when I was younger,
like you know, and I was like and I don't know,
third or fourth grade or something, I got on the line,
he'd kind of do the old scruff of the neck thing,
you know, or he'd squeeze your neck and kind of
try to set you straight. But like, my dad wasn't
a guy. I never once heard my dad yell my parents.
I didn't grow up in a yelling house, and so
(04:56):
I'm pretty laid back in that way. It was always
very jarring to when I would be at friends' houses.
And that's just how the family talked was at this
high volume and the parents going and not even in
necessarily an angry way. A lot of times it was.
I had friends whose parents clearly hated each other, but
you know, just yelling back and forth. It was like,
Oh my god, how do you live like this? I
was more afraid of my mom than I was at
(05:17):
her dad. My mom was the one who spent my
whole life spankingt me. Yeah, my dad work. My mother
had no fear, like she was great until she wasn't,
and then just watch out. She had to deal with
two boys. She would beat the piss out of us
if we needed it. She never really it wasn't like that.
Speaker 8 (05:34):
When I say, like, that sounds very violent, right like,
but she was not afraid whatsoever.
Speaker 1 (05:40):
To make sure you knew your place. Yeah you know
what I mean? Oh, I saw a guy driving a
car wearing a motorcycle helmet today? How about that? I
hit a deer last night, Rob, I know. I'll show
you a photo here for people who are watching the
live stream, there's my twenty fifteen Ford Fusion post deer.
I was all my home boy, all most home. I
(06:03):
take the Crocker exit and then I go north to
Bay Village. There, I was literally like three minutes from
the house and I'm not flying. I just got off
the highway, so I'm literally doing like twenty five and
this deer comes out of nowhere and all I see
is this thing somersaulting over my hood and I go bam,
(06:23):
And I'm like, oh, what So this front driver's side
headlight that I just spent five hundred dollars to fix
a couple of weeks ago, that thing is completely shattered.
Now it could have been a lot worse, you know
what I mean, these big deers and deer. And then
I get home and I'm talking to my daughter about this,
and they was like, oh okay. I go, yeah, I'm fine,
(06:44):
I said, but there was like no, you know, and
it's not uncommon. When I talk to my insurance company
this morning, the girl's like, oh God, all we've been
getting is people hitting deer. But normally I see them,
you know, there's a lot of them. I see this
just came out of norhe I'm like, why would you
run across the street when there's cars? Uh? But they're dumb. Well,
But then my daughter goes, is it alive? I go,
I do not know. I don't know. I didn't stop
(07:07):
and pull over and find out. I go just in
my periphery, it looked like this thing was I told
her it ran off from him. He's perfectly fun. That's
what she wants to hear, you know. No, I pulled
in the next parking lot there was one of these
local businesses underneath one of the giant street lamps to
get out and kind of survey the dam. I'm like, God,
damn it. Yep, so you were able to keep driving?
Oh yeah, the car is fully operational, like it's I
(07:27):
think it's gonna be just a lot of body work,
but I mean, yeah, the whole front driver's side of
the car, like the hood is jacked and the headlights
shattered and the you know, so again, it could have
been a lot worse. But I was like, of course, right,
I'm gonna be traveling for the holidays and all that crap.
So now I got to get this thing figured out.
Can you get it in sooner than later? Well, I'm
(07:48):
gonna get it in early next week. What I'm worried about, though,
you know, it's the twenty fifteen, and it's got it's
it's in great shape. But it's still got two hundred
and twenty eight thousand miles on it, right, so I'm
worried they're gonna be like, yeah, it's five to fix.
The car is worth seven. So I don't know. We'll see.
But no, I didn't get hurt anything like that, but
it was just very annoying, very very annoying. Peal them
(08:11):
a way to end my day yesterday. It might be
time to call your buddy who Rich Clayton. H Yeah, maybe,
well we'll see what they say. Right. Call the insurance
and she's like, hey, we'll figure it out. Big kope,
Like do you have the the deductible? I do have that.
It's not huge. Yeah, okay, yeah no, so I'll slap
that down and then i'll have them. You know though
(08:32):
obviously they'll give me a Sumi, but it's like, you know,
I'll be driving a rental for a little while and whatever.
But boy, what a way to end my day. If
you're going to get a rental, may I recommend getting
something that you're actually interested in purchasing next so you
can figure out if you actually like it. I don't
think they have a lot of aston Martin Vanguard's at
(08:53):
Enterprise rob. I don't know if they have a lot
of Alpha Romeo. I know there's an Alfa Romeo dealership
over in Strongsville, but I don't think that they have
a lot of those around you, believe it or not.
Speaker 8 (09:07):
Avis does not rent Lamborghini SUV's. I know you're never
gonna believe this.
Speaker 1 (09:12):
There's a parent and I don't know who their kid is,
but on days that were off or whatever, and I'm
picking my kid up from school, there is somebody at
my kid's school who picks their child up in a
Rolls Royce Suv. That's their car, is a Rolls Suv.
Speaker 8 (09:28):
And I'm like, wow, I've found that that usually is
the child of a ballplayer or football player, something like
that is usually the case.
Speaker 1 (09:39):
Oh yeah, maybe I don't know that there's anybody like
that at her school though, because I feel like I
would have heard, but with you.
Speaker 8 (09:44):
Haven't dough right, most people who have like flex money
like that aren't going to drive that car is there
every day?
Speaker 10 (09:53):
You know?
Speaker 1 (09:53):
But I genuinely listen. I live. I'm in Bay Village.
I am a few blocks from the lake. Yeah, they
have all all those hospital size houses, right, and people
are building more. There's this house out there on Lake
Road that some people might know. They referred to it
as the Swiffer House. I don't know if it's urban
legend or what, but it's a massive house and somebody
said it was the family that invented the swiffer. I
don't know if that's true or not. If you know,
(10:15):
you know, And I'm driving by and they're putting an
addition on it. They're putting it like an airplane hangar
on the side of this thing, and I'm like, with respect,
this is northeast Ohio. I'm like, there's only so many
professional athletes to go around. Where is all this money
Because there's only so many there's only one progressive CEO
and probably didn't live here, you know what I mean.
There's all this money, clearly, but I'm like, what do
(10:38):
these people do for a living? Like I make a
good living. But I'm like, Jesus, that house wasn't big
enough for you. You're like, nah, anymore space The Allen
car Show.
Speaker 11 (10:49):
On one hundred.
Speaker 1 (10:54):
Show. Listening to the show doesn't make you a bad person.
In the foot locker at the end of your bed,
that makes you a bad person. The Buzzard. Well, all right,
(11:15):
more money for you here in about ten minutes. Try
to get it as close to two thirty as I
can for you. It's keywords from the Buzzard bookie. I
think today and tomorrow and Friday are the last few
days to grab some to get up in just about
every hour, So a lot of opportunities for you to
grab some of that cash if you have not already.
Your Cavaliers are still in Miami. They got beat in
(11:38):
overtime the other night, a buzzer beater Ali Oup. Both
teams now at seven to four. Calves in Miami to
play the Heat tonight. That's a seven point thirty start,
so seven o'clock pregame. Get you all the coverage here
on WMMS, and then the Calves will come home tomorrow
night to host the Raptors, and they will be here
(12:00):
through the twenty third before they hit the road to
play the Raptors there in Toronto Thanksgiving week, So he'll
be home for a pretty good stretch. You know. Calv's
looking for revenge tonight against Chris bosh Alia. Hoot.
Speaker 8 (12:13):
What a lot of the talk obviously was about the
alley oop, right, but have you seen the video, the
sideline video of.
Speaker 1 (12:22):
The three to tie the game. No, that.
Speaker 8 (12:27):
He is on another Donovan Mitchell is just on another
planet at the moment.
Speaker 1 (12:32):
That that should be.
Speaker 8 (12:34):
If there was no Alley oop to win the game,
that would have been the highlight of the game and
maybe part of his season. Like he dives into a three,
It's incredible. I've watched it like twenty times. He is
so good.
Speaker 1 (12:49):
Let me see if I can show this here. I
think this is what you're talking about. They inbound the ball,
Donovan Mitchell crazy, he's game tying three.
Speaker 8 (12:58):
He steps over the line basically just turns and shoots,
and it's I mean, it's it's textbooks.
Speaker 1 (13:04):
This is right before the Alli oop says are six
seconds in overtime, right, yeah, this was the play before.
Speaker 12 (13:10):
In the Merril the three for the tie, he missed it,
rebound taken by Mitchell.
Speaker 1 (13:15):
The three for the tie.
Speaker 12 (13:16):
He made it with four tenths of a second left
try the game.
Speaker 1 (13:22):
And that was a sloppy toss too. That's what I'm saying.
Speaker 8 (13:25):
Just if you just watch him step out and he
is just another level of a ballplayer right there. That
dude is incredible, really, and that should be what we
remember we unfortunately.
Speaker 1 (13:37):
We got him from the Jazz Where do we get
him from? It was a big deal when he came here. Huge.
Speaker 8 (13:42):
Yeah, yeah, and that's that. They're a fantastic team. I
worry about the injuries, obviously, but they'll be all right. Yeah, Allen.
Speaker 1 (13:53):
Deer always get hit this time of year because they
are in rut, they're losing their minds. Oh, I know,
I know. Do just mean they're always horny? Yeah? I
just usually see them, you know what I mean? This
one time I just didn't well. And sometimes there's nothing
you could do about it either. I mean they jump
out in front of you.
Speaker 3 (14:09):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (14:10):
No, one's like, yes, I get to hit a deer today?
Yeah yeah, well yeah, I mean suburban roads are you know,
obviously back roads, but a lot of these suburban roads
are just littered with carcasses. You know, how far did
you have to drive before you could pull over and
take a look. It was right there. There were a
couple of like nine to five businesses out there off
(14:30):
the Crocker exit there past like the Double Tree Hotel.
There's these places off the side there, like a couple
of distribution warehouse. I know where you were, Yeah, and
I pulled right in.
Speaker 4 (14:39):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (14:39):
It was between the shell station and the train tracks there, okay,
And I just pulled right in because you know, nobody
in the parking lot obviously is a little bit after
seven o'clock and you know, huge lights in the parking lots.
I pulled them, like, yeah, bless it. Alan. My name
is Anne, Gina God. I hope that's an China Yah
(15:00):
and Gina's show. Yeah. My comment is about standing up
to your father. I'm fifty four now, and standing up
to your father is one thing you did not do well. Listen,
there were a lot of people of the gen X
generation who absolutely stood up to their dads. I just
(15:22):
didn't have that kind of relationship with my dad, right.
He wasn't like, he wasn't giving me a hard time.
My dad was working. He's busy working. You know. I'm
fortunate that I work. Listen, I work a lot and
have for thirty years. But you know, people of a
certain age are like, I never saw my dad. So
it's nice. You know, if you're able to be around
(15:44):
your kids, you know, the way that you want to.
But that wasn't a concern when I was a kid,
you know, it was like my dad was dismissive of it,
but you know, he was working, and I was just
afraid enough. I was not afraid of my dad.
Speaker 8 (15:59):
We got along fine, but I was afraid enough that
I knew not to do certain things, you know.
Speaker 1 (16:06):
Bring hookers home.
Speaker 8 (16:07):
That was that's he encouraged that. But as far as like,
if I was disrespectful, that was usually where he would
draw the line.
Speaker 1 (16:14):
Hookers were fine, if he was disrespectful to the hooker.
Oh that's the one never frowned upon, by the way.
Shout out to Stephen vote, back to back al Manager
and your honors there, Stephen vote from your Cleveland Guardians.
That's a huge deal man. Back to back twenty four
and twenty five, the AL Central beating out Toronto's John Schneider.
(16:36):
Of course he is the skipper there of the Toronto
Blue Jays, one of my teams. But also I believe
he played Bo Duke on the TV show The Dukes
of Hazzard back in the day. What a career pivot.
And Dan Wilson of the Seattle Mariners.
Speaker 8 (16:53):
I think both of those dudes would have beat out
Stephen Vote if they had won the World Series.
Speaker 1 (16:59):
Well yeah, he gotta think that, right, Yeah, but I
mean Toronto a got closer than Seattle, and Cleveland did well, right,
they were in the World Series.
Speaker 8 (17:06):
But I think vote just had that march, remember how
I mean they were down eighteen games, yeah, in July
and they made the playoffs.
Speaker 1 (17:13):
You know, that's that's the kind of stuff. That's what
they look at. Obviously, he's a young dude. He's forty one.
He's a player's manager. He looks older than that, and
he's still so close.
Speaker 8 (17:24):
To his playing years. That's what these dudes love about him,
is like, you know, they he gets it. He knows
what they're going through. And he and let's not forget
on top of getting that team back after eight being
down eighteen games, he managed through those pitching scolendar controversies.
Speaker 1 (17:39):
Yeah yeah, yeah, they're uh, they're blowing out the prop bets,
right yea, because major League Baseball is like, yeah, this
is no good, and they should two guys from the
same team, two guys from the from the Cleveland Guardians,
and they should blow him up. The whole thing is crap.
What a stain sures. So anyway, he's one of only
(18:00):
three people to post back to back awards in those
seasons going back to nineteen eighty three, Pat Murphy who
was also twenty four and twenty five for the Brewers,
Kevin Cash with the Rays, and Bobby Cox no relation
with the Atlanta Braves. So congratulations to Stephen vote your
(18:27):
Cleveland guardians. The vote, if you will went in his favor,
recorded seventeen first place votes, one hundred and thirteen voting
points over who votes for this baseball writers? Yeah, yeah,
guys who always has some kind of acts to grind.
Speaker 8 (18:42):
And I think, man, I think the managers vote too.
I think like they're involved. I'm pretty guy runs to Wendy's.
Oh the baseball bannings.
Speaker 1 (18:49):
I'm sorry, Yeah, they open it up to anyone who
manages at all. I got a ballot, Yeah, hey, I'm yeah, right,
you have Rob's the program director here. He's a manager.
I don't manage anything. I manage myself. That's about it, right.
I didn't get a vote in that whole thing, nor
should I. Quite frankly, what the hell do I have
to do with voting for the manager of the Year
(19:13):
in Major League Baseball? Nothing? Raw, nothing, and nor should I?
Speaker 3 (19:21):
Ell?
Speaker 1 (19:21):
Why can't the Calves make foul shots. I have to
think that they can. They can. I don't know. I
don't have a good answer for that, don't know. All
my bakery kept running out of free donuts for veterans yesterday. Well,
if you got to run out, that's probably a good
(19:42):
day to run out, you know. I have to think
that Veterans Day is also a big, big day for
Sildena phil What is that? That's viagua? Oh isn't it?
Isn't that the generic name when you watch the commercials?
Isn't that the generic name for the boner pills? I
don't know. I only know those Cilis viagra. I only
(20:04):
know him by that when they do the commercials they
have to give you is gim I know his best
one ever? Sounds like a Wu tang giving you some
medical advice. What is that one? Oh god something sky Rizzy? Yeah,
there you go, rihsm Gizz gives them. It sounds exactly
like a Wu tang thing. I love it so much,
sky Rizzy. Yeah, and I don't even know what that does,
(20:25):
no idea. Sky Rizzy is a immunosuppressant used to treat
chronic inflammatory autoimmune condition. Okay, yeah, right, what do you
who knew Snoop was on this the whole time. The
(20:46):
fact that they don't have him doing these is a travisy.
Oh god, right, he should be in these commercials.
Speaker 8 (20:52):
Have Method Man and Redman come running out and just
talk about sky Rizzy. It would be the greatest moment
of all time. Oh just whole o d B from
the grave. Yeah, Oh, it would be so good.
Speaker 1 (21:06):
Hey, Dirty, maybe I got some rhysm kiss. I mean,
because most of the ones that you see are for
skin conditions, right, I don't know why those are so prevalent.
They're all very you know, psoriasis and exema and all this.
You know, I'm not going to gonna have to do
the legal ease, right. They have to speak in these
commercials in a way that nobody ever would naturally speak.
(21:26):
So they're like, well, I'm treating my moderate to severe.
You know, we've all seen these, but uh yeah, the
US caps rism it's my favorite.
Speaker 8 (21:37):
Protection, Nick, Yeah, you want to check.
Speaker 1 (21:59):
And there do you remember this song I do? It's
called Dixie Chicken. It's a band called Little Feet, and
the people who are in the Little Feet are way
in the Little Feet. So they have a pretty dedicated
fan base, and this was arguably the biggest song they had.
But it's a band that you don't necessarily really think of, right.
Richie Hayward was their longtime drummer, and when I first
(22:22):
started taking lessons, my drum teacher was like pals of
Richie Hayward or something like that and founding member of
the band, and he was. You know, when you talk
about underrated musicians in rock and roll, I always think
about Richie Hayward. Warren Zevon just got into the rock
and roll Hall of Fame and easily. Warren Zevon's kind
of most commercial album, most highly produced, most you know,
(22:44):
was called Sentimental Hygiene Smack Dab in the middle of
the eighties, and Richie Hayward was the drummer on all
those tracks. But Little Feet, for people who remember that
band has announced that they are done. Really, I think
they have one founding guy in the band. Billy Payne
is the co found The singer I think was a
guy named Lowell George if memory serves, and he was
(23:05):
a guy who died on the road in his hotel
room of a heroin overdose. He had a heart attack
and they determined that it had been a heroin overdose.
But Little Feet says that they're calling it quits with
a final tour. So they're just a jam band out
of Los Angeles. Boy before anybody, you know, back when
you're if you like jam bands, your choices were, you know,
(23:28):
kind of I don't know if these guys were at
Woodstock or what. But Little Feet is one of those
bands that some people are really really into. And these
guys are all like, you know, late seventies, early eighties.
So they're calling it quits after a tour. After it,
Oh good, I will actually go and see that. I've
seen them once. I would definitely go see them again
to say I saw them again. Yeah, have you seen them?
I've never seen Little Feet again. I like Richie Hayward
(23:51):
as a drummer. It's just nothing that I ever heard
from them, like, really, scratch me where I at.
Speaker 8 (23:57):
Yeah, it's not I mean, you know, it's it's it's
not as annoying as the jam bandy grateful dead stuff,
you know what I mean. It's more, I don't know,
it's got its own thing. It's fun. I would say
if I had to go see one, it would be them,
because you can't see the Omen Brothers.
Speaker 1 (24:15):
Yeah, they're doing about twenty dates. You will have to travel. Actually,
the very last date on the tour is in Thornville, Ohio.
I think that's where they have the gathering of the Juggalos.
Sometimes they're gonna do the Dark Star Jubilee. I hope
they're headlining that. Oh Okay, So the very last farewell
tour date will be in Ohio. Otherwise you would have
(24:36):
to travel to like suburb Chicago or Kansas City or
you know, Fort Lauderdale, something like that.
Speaker 8 (24:42):
Is your wife back from Fort Lauderdale. She made it
back last night. Hey, she got in late late, late
last night.
Speaker 1 (24:48):
Speaking of Florida as a guy one of our bureau
chiefs in you know, the Treasure Coast, it's where our
former colleague, Jason Carr runs some radio stations for this company. Right,
he was our program director before Rob got here. He
was our COVID PD. But he's originally from Florida, and
so when it was time for him to leave here,
(25:09):
he went back home. But this part of the state
of Florida is called the Treasure Coast. Port Saint Lucie, Florida.
A guy in the wee hours. Sounds like after last call,
walking out of a bar and he pulls out a
pistol and starts firing because he's arguing with other people
about how many eggs a chicken can lay. Sounds like
(25:29):
a perfectly good reason to do that.
Speaker 13 (25:32):
We're chickens led a man to fire a handgun at
three people outside Harper's pob It happened around two thirty
in the morning yesterday. Treasure Coast via reporter Angela Rozier
has the body camera video.
Speaker 1 (25:42):
Well do they always say, rob nothing good happens after
two am? Some people say midnight. Some people say nothing
good happens after midnight. That's demonstrably false. A lot of
great stuff happens after midnight. When you get into the
wee hours, you're going to get somebody who's armed. It
is Florida, the Ohio of the South, and arguing over
dumb crap.
Speaker 8 (26:02):
I like to say nine to thirty, nothing good happens
after nine after when I'm talking them in that's.
Speaker 1 (26:07):
Okay, kill me, don't don't go gun. This is this
guy barefoot, overall shorts yep, right overall's bibs and shorts.
Speaker 14 (26:21):
You fall on the camera footage of forty four year
old Peter Riira being taken into custody by.
Speaker 1 (26:26):
Ports hard By. I got ten years firing.
Speaker 14 (26:29):
Four rounds from a forty five caliber clock at three
people after an argument outside the clothes pub. Police say,
once outside, the conversation became heated. Riia became paranoid and
believed the victims were out to get him.
Speaker 15 (26:43):
The shooter evidently raises chickens, and the conversation was about
how many eggs a chicken can lay.
Speaker 14 (26:50):
They say that's when Riira armed himself with a handgun
and started firing.
Speaker 1 (26:54):
One victim ran out into the roadway trying to get
away from the shooter.
Speaker 9 (26:58):
Uh.
Speaker 1 (26:58):
The other two victims head. We had several phone calls.
The shooter himself called nine to one one.
Speaker 14 (27:04):
We were at the scene as officers gathered evidence.
Speaker 1 (27:06):
Later that morning, Hey, why was your uncle killed outside
that bar?
Speaker 5 (27:10):
Oh?
Speaker 1 (27:10):
He was telling a guy that a chicken could only
lay one egg a day. Yeah, and the guy didn't
care for that bitch. You see my strong cap and overalls.
You think I don't know how many eggs and chickens
lay in a day. Yeah, it's a good reminder. By
the way, Speaking of the Dixie Chicken. It's a good
reminder that Florida is very much the South. We're people
who somehow deny that. I don't understand why they do,
(27:33):
but people who live in Florida, for whatever reason, they
somehow take umbrage when you call Florida like Dixie Land
very much. Exactly what it is is very much the South,
just because you guys boil your peanuts and it is.
It was the third state to secede from the in
this frigging Civil War, you know what I mean. So
(27:53):
Florida is very and with Ron DeSantis in charge, Jesus,
these guys like George Wallace with a herd law degree,
so he's really trying to relive the good old days.
But yeah, Florida is very much the South. They were
making a run to be the new South for a while.
But oh the sandus Ah, he's you know, taking him
(28:18):
back to a time that never existed in the first place.
We draw the line with elevator's shoes there you go. Yeah,
so the guy, listen, do you know how many eggs
a chicken can lay? My initial thought in this story
was this is missing some crucial context, right, how many
eggs can a chicken. Lamb like, well, over what period
(28:40):
of time? I guess. I don't know what the specifics
of the argument were. So what they said right now?
What he said?
Speaker 8 (28:46):
How many chickens and eggs? Oh god, how many eggs
a chicken can lay in a day?
Speaker 1 (28:50):
Oh? I didn't hear the question.
Speaker 8 (28:51):
I thought it was, Oh, okay, And if it is,
let's just say twenty four hours.
Speaker 1 (28:55):
Yeah, you have to assume two. I think it's one.
Is it one? I don't know, but I feel like
I heard somewhere that I didn't know it was that frequent.
I had somebody years ago, a friend that lived out
in the sticks, and he had chickens and everything else,
and I'm pretty sure he was like, it's like one
a day. My brother has chicken fast. One a day.
Speaker 8 (29:18):
My brother has chickens. And I know he always has
a massive amount of eggs. Those are ducks and I
hate them. He has chickens, and yeah, he always has
a lot of eggs. So there it has to be.
I think at least once a day. I'm gonna say,
maximum of two per day.
Speaker 1 (29:37):
Well, this is what I'm saying is that I would
think at I would think at least one a day.
But I don't know. You know, I babysat ostriches back
in the day, but I don't know anything about chickens.
Speaker 8 (29:51):
You're right, A chicken can lay at most one egg
per day because the process of forming an egg takes
between twenty four and twenty six hours, most.
Speaker 1 (30:01):
Max one a day. So how was this a long argument?
Speaker 16 (30:04):
Then?
Speaker 1 (30:05):
Well?
Speaker 8 (30:05):
Right, well, because the least drunk I had to say
was one bitch it takes a day to set it up,
otherwise it'll come out solved.
Speaker 1 (30:13):
Yeah, But then it's two thirty in the morning, everybody's drunk,
and it turns into what did she say? The argument
got heated, Cleatus. Hold up.
Speaker 8 (30:26):
What I'm trying to tell you is I've seen twin chickens.
Speaker 1 (30:31):
Man, that would be two eggs, not one egg.
Speaker 8 (30:35):
He's like, no, man, that's still one egg you see
there inside of the same egg.
Speaker 1 (30:38):
Man, that's it. I'm getting my glock. Which came first,
the chicken or the egg? It's a great question. I
think science has definitively determined over many, many years that
the chicken did come first. And I don't know what
if that sounds.
Speaker 17 (30:58):
Like science is a liar? Sometimes it was like, it
was terrible. It was very very low.
Speaker 1 (31:14):
Oh oh, the Allen Cox.
Speaker 18 (31:17):
Show on one hundred point seven.
Speaker 1 (31:22):
Call the Alan Cox Show. I want to listen to
what's radio again?
Speaker 19 (31:27):
Two one sixty five seven eight one double oh seven
or one eight hundred three four eight one double oh seven.
Speaker 6 (31:50):
Too.
Speaker 1 (32:02):
Do you remember Nick Simmons did you watch?
Speaker 10 (32:05):
Yeah?
Speaker 1 (32:05):
Do you ever watched Gene Simmons Family Jewels? Yeah, it
was years ago, and I think it was I think
it was after the Osborne's. I actually liked it better
than the Osborne's. It was Shannon Tweed, who was Gene
simmons long suffering girlfriend, and their kids who kind of
in direct contrast. I guess it was. It was contingental
(32:27):
what flavor you liked, right, The Osborne's were just NonStop chaos.
Family Jewels was kind of a juxtaposition with this guy
who called himself the Demon and all this stuff, but
his life was very normal and his kids were nice.
And Nick Simmons was his son, and Sophie is his daughter.
And this was many years ago and everybody's all grown up.
(32:47):
I think you know, Sophie has kids of her own now. Anyway,
Nick Simmons and Evan Stanley, who was Paul Stanley's son,
have a band and they're getting ready to drop their
first song December fifth, that is three weeks from Friday.
It's called Body Down. The band is called Stanley Simmons. Now, okay,
(33:13):
other than that sounding like your ap English teacher, I
guess my question is those are their dad's stage names. Now.
I know you want people to know who you are,
and that's always been a question of mine. Do you
grow up with your listen if you know your Kiss lore,
I'm not telling you anything new, right. Paul Stanley's real
name was Stanley Paul eisen and Gene Simmons born in Israel.
(33:38):
His given name was Tim Vitz. Yes, so if you're
using your family's names, your band would be called Eisenwitz.
Right now, that's not going to have the same rock
and roll hook if you're trying to get people hip
to the fact that you are the spawn of two
guys from Kiss. But like, I don't think Jeene Simmons
or Paul Stanley ever had their names legally changed, so
(34:01):
I'm always curious about that. Like that, he calls himself
Nick Simmons and Sophie Simmons. I mean, Channon Tweet and
Gene Simmons have since married. But that's not his name,
you know what I mean. I'm splitting hairs here. But
but but I'm only asking because this is not unprecedented.
I was always interested in people who had their parents'
(34:24):
stage name. I didn't find anything when I was kind
of looking into it. I didn't find anything that indicated
that Paul Stanley or Jene Simmons ever legally changed their name.
I have to think that Gene simmons driver's license says
I'm vits on it, And now I could be way off.
Some of you kiss nerds might know differently. He's so funny.
(34:44):
A cop that pulls him over and hand it.
Speaker 8 (34:46):
Over say all right, you're not Gene Simmons.
Speaker 1 (34:53):
No, I'm Homviots.
Speaker 4 (35:00):
One thing I forget.
Speaker 1 (35:02):
I am Jeene Simmons of Kiss and of myself. He
gets pulled over and with his iPhone four and the
aux cord plugged in so we can listen to this
program on the iHeartRadio. A excuse me, mister Vitz.
Speaker 8 (35:14):
We noticed that you were addle with your vehicles, so
we decided to pull you over.
Speaker 1 (35:19):
Yeah, issue a citation. It's your boy Ace he's rocking
right now? Yeah, yeah, so uh. Nick Simmons and Evans Stanley, Now,
both of these guys have been doing the rock and
roll thing for a while. I think back in the
day when Family Jewels was first run. I don't think
either of his kids hennity. I mean again, Nick Simmons
(35:41):
is a tall dude, good looking kid, long hair, the
whole thing. But I don't know that he was an
aspiring rock and roll guy. I know that Sophie was
a singer. I don't know if that show still airs anywhere.
I don't know if you can stream episodes of Geene
Simmons Family Jewels. I think it was on A and E.
It was, yeah, yeah, which, of course stands are Arts
and Entertainment formerly the artist formerly known as Arts and Entertainment.
(36:05):
Yeah yeah, I don't. I don't so this is always
called body down. I don't think it's I don't think
anywhere any of it's dropped yet. But that is an
interesting question.
Speaker 8 (36:14):
I wonder if they do go by or if their
legal names are Simmons.
Speaker 1 (36:21):
But can you legally have a surname. I think your
name is not anything it can be. I don't know.
I don't either like I could just change my surname.
I mean, Bill changed their first names all the time.
But your surname is what's attached to a social Security number,
and it's you know.
Speaker 8 (36:38):
You can get rid of a surname, so I would
assume that you can change it.
Speaker 1 (36:43):
Or Yeah, I wish I had known this a long
time ago, Rob that I could have changed my surname.
Now I don't know that I would have, of course,
but yeah, but I was one. So anyway, I'm interested
to hear what this is. I don't think it's going
to be. Judging by what they're wearing. They kind of
look like a king, not Kings of leon a Greta
(37:07):
Van Fleet cover band is what they look like. I
don't know if that's the vibe they're going, She says,
Nick Is thirty six. Yeah, these are not kids anymore.
They were kids when the show was on. Sophie's thirty three. Yeah,
oh they're growed up. Wow. And they don't need money.
Even if Gene Simmons is your dad, And if there
was ever a famous dad who looked like he wasn't
(37:29):
getting give you a friggin dime, you'd have to do
it yourself. It's Gene Simmons. But I'm sure the kids
are set up fine.
Speaker 8 (37:34):
You see, her legal name is Sophie Alexandra Tweed Simmons. Yeah,
so it must be that their names are Maybe he
did legally change his name. I don't know that. I
had never seen anything that that happened.
Speaker 1 (37:47):
But so these guys were like, yeah, about a year ago,
we were just dicking around and we came up with
us song, and then that turned into more songs, and
then we were having fun and turned into a whole album.
So they've posted things on YouTube over the past couple
of years like, but it's more like the Eagles and
(38:08):
Simon and Garfunkel and that kind of stuff. So I
don't know that this is going to be like a
fire breathing rock and roll thing.
Speaker 8 (38:14):
His legal name is Nicholas Adam Tweed Simmons, so Tweed
Simmons appears.
Speaker 1 (38:19):
To be the legal last name of both. All right,
interesting trying to find this song, but this Stanley Simmons. Hello,
I'm Stanley Simmons.
Speaker 17 (38:33):
I would have seen a lot of comments about this,
and we are stoked to announce that our debut single,
Body Down, is finally coming out it's gonna be December fifth,
So hit the pre save link in our bio.
Speaker 11 (38:42):
Please hit the pre save link in our bio.
Speaker 1 (38:44):
Prease, hit the pre save link. Please. It's twenty twenty five.
Where's some of the music here? I mean, don't you
(39:06):
want to hear some vocals?
Speaker 8 (39:07):
It was right at that good part. Yeah, I felt
like something was finally about to happen.
Speaker 1 (39:11):
That's what I mean. That's how they get your rob.
That's how they get if I can borrow pornography phrase,
that's how they get their fishhooks in your rob. Uh huh?
Speaking of porno, did you see that Jenna Jamison has
found the Lord? Oh good, I guess only because he
didn't see her first. But listen, what do they say?
(39:32):
Religion is the last refuge of the scoundrel. Now, I'm
not calling her that. She's put in a lot of
years and she's had a lot of stuff going on. Right,
she had to deal with Tito or Tease, for God's sake,
that is worst. But Jenna Jamison has found Jesus and
she's trying to get the word out after many years
(39:52):
of being known for sin. She's all over Instagram, and
boy she was when you cast your mind back if
you are of a certain generation, and you can recall
the glory days of one Jenna Jamison. She set herself
apart with her enthusiasm. There were a lot of gorgeous women. Now,
she was never one of my faves back in the day,
(40:14):
but I fully understood why everybody while she was the
one getting all the heat, right, she was in private parts.
She's the naked girl in the studio, right Jamison. She's
fifty one now and she has gone through wait for it,
say it with me, a transformative personal journey. She got
(40:34):
baptized and she's helping others find Jesus. Now I'm not here.
If you will to throw stones, I think it's all silly,
but that's her. She should do what she wants to do.
So she's very much now into the Lord. On Instagram,
(40:57):
she said she is quote switching sides. Now, that's probably
a term that probably came up earlier in her career too,
But she has gone through some stuff now. The only
time she screams oh God is when she's praying wmms
(41:17):
rob on social media? Is that correct? I believe?
Speaker 19 (41:20):
So.
Speaker 1 (41:22):
She says that she is oh oh loud and proud
about her walk with Jesus Christ. She was always very,
very loud and proud with whatever she did. I will
give her that, Well, why do that job if you're
a goal I was gonna say half ascid, But why
do that job if you're just gonna throw it around
like it's a wet rag, right, I mean, you've got
(41:44):
to be enthusiastic. She was enthusiastic. Back in the day,
you had to make the cut in porn, right, there
were gatekeepers, there were studios. Now everybody's got a camera.
You just have to be willing to do porn, you know.
I mean, for you, there's money to be made and
there's no reason, you know, so it's it's been democratized.
(42:04):
But again, back in the day, it was like a
legit thing. You had to get cast in things. And
you know, people have asked the same question forever. How
is porn full of these hot, hot women? Why aren't
they doing something quote unquote at the time more legitimate?
(42:30):
You know, these are gorgeous women. Now some of them
were beat up, okay, but I mean you're like, why
aren't they like legitimate actresses? Or because they you know,
people are like, oh, they can't act, except you got
to be a good actress to do pornography. I would
argue that's the hardest kind of acting to do. You
have to pretend like you're having a great time all
(42:52):
the time, no matter who you're with, whether they flost,
whether they brush their teeth, whatever. It is. So Jenna Jamison,
as so many other people in her situation have, has
wound up on the side of the Lord team Jesus
all the way is what she says on her Instagram.
(43:16):
And I was surprised, and I got to tell you
a little encouraged that I didn't see her comments taken
over by trolls. Now, maybe she's going through and surgically
managing that. I don't know, but there could be. You
know how people love to get in people's face. You
can't make anybody happy, right, They're mad if you don't
love Jesus, and then you're they're mad if you don't
(43:38):
aren't the right person to you know, follow Jesus or whatever.
And then we're eyebrow deep in people who say they
love Jesus don't want anything to do with what he
talked about. So I say good for Jenna Jamison. I
mean the good news is she can still do both
on her knees too. Dam was pretty good. Yeah, you're eminence, excellency.
(44:11):
Jenna Jamison's you know what her real name is, Jennifer Jamison,
is it? No, I'm kidding. Jennifer Marie Massoli started. Yeah,
she started, and she's really been all over the place
right with her sexuality. And again, if you've seen any
of her previous work, it's no shock. But she was
(44:32):
with Tito Ortiz, she was married to a guy before that.
She got married to a woman, and I think they
might have had kind of an acrimonious situation. They were
married for under a year. She's married to a woman
named Jesse Lawless. And at that time, Jenna Jamison was
still really kind of going through some stuff. She was
partying and drinking a lot. Yeah, she was having a
real hard time. And now she's dating this young kid,
(44:57):
you know, because what better way to kind of feel
like you're still in the game. You're a fifty one
year old retired porn actress and the dude you're dating
probably isn't familiar with your earlier work. Oh, I would
assume he's well, probably after he met her and they
got to know each other. But I mean, she's had
a lot of cosmetic surgery done, so she doesn't look
like she did obviously when she was eighteen years old.
(45:19):
But nobody does whether or not you have work done right,
And so she's dating somebody much younger. She was married
to Brad Armstrong, who was referred to as the King
of Porn in the mid nineties. She married another guy
in porn a few years after that. She has sixteen
year old twin sons with Tito Ortez. She has an
(45:41):
eight year old with a former fiance she was engaged to,
like this Israeli businessman or something around. So, you know,
Jenna Jamison has made the rounds Now she's engaged to
the Lord. If it keeps her alive, good for her?
I think so right, keeps you on the straight and narrow,
(46:01):
I mean, whatever it takes, whatever it needs to be. Yeah,
you know, get herself.
Speaker 8 (46:05):
Look at the end of the day, everybody wants to
be happy, right, and if this is what does that
good for her?
Speaker 9 (46:09):
Oh?
Speaker 1 (46:10):
Oh oh?
Speaker 8 (46:11):
She has spent an entire lifetime trying to be something
that she obviously was not, you know what I mean,
So it's got to be freeing. Maybe even if this
isn't who she is, to be in such a different
place in her life, it must feel good, you know
what I mean?
Speaker 1 (46:27):
No joking there, Yeah, Alan, I work for a probate court.
You can absolutely change your surnames. Oh good for you.
Jenna was in a lot of films with the same
title but different volumes inside Jenna Jamison up and Comers Yeah,
Ray West. They spelt comers wrong. I don't know what
(46:50):
that means. Rob, see me after the show, will you, okay?
Speaking of Wieners, our friend Leslie call left a message.
Speaker 6 (47:00):
And old quit Bratler congrat someone year by the way.
Speaker 1 (47:04):
It's Leslie, yes, Why do you have to be the
old clit rattler? Well right, maybe she means that in
a nice way. That means like all ol your face
she's being folksy O l d e y old ye oldie.
That's even worse old time don Ra all right, hey.
Speaker 6 (47:21):
Allen, and old qlit Bratler congrats someone year by the way,
it's Leslie. Yesterday you were talking about griefs and dreams
and the weirdness that surrounds that. Buckle up with me.
I promises dark but has a funny ish ending. But
in twenty eleven, my best friend from high school decided
to opt out okay, and it was a really dark
(47:42):
period because I wasn't even twenty one and it was
the first time I had dealt with someone that was
a friend passing away. And it's been almost fifteen years
and for a long time I kept having dreams about him,
and it was really sad initially, but it was similar
to rob situation, where you see the person in the
dream and you just kind of relieved when you wake
up that you're hasn't forgotten them, and it helped me
coute for a while. But I don't really believe in
(48:04):
an afterlife, although I kind of like to hope that
there is one. The closest thing I got to believing
in an afterlife was my friend that pass had a
very prefers sense of humor. So imagine my shock when
I got an email from his account six months after
he died. But it was a stam email because his
account got hacked to sell me penis enlargement pills, and
(48:24):
it was absolutely the kind of ridiculous thing he would
have sent me when he was still alive. I like
to think that if there isn't after life. That was
his way of cheering me up by somehow sending me
such an absurd email. Anyway, I love you boys by Oh.
Speaker 1 (48:39):
Well, that's a cliffhanger, there it is. Yeah, it has
Leslie's penis been in large. I should take advantage of
all those offers. I was like, how was that? Oh,
oh right, her penis. Didn't you get those emails grandma?
Or were they selling what?
Speaker 19 (48:57):
Right?
Speaker 1 (48:59):
Alan saw? Jenna Jamison is in a missionary position. All right,
thank you? She found the Tracy Lawrence all right, right,
all right? Any who, she is the Chubby Checker of porn.
(49:21):
Somebody said, I don't get that. Oh, she's done the
same thing over and every one I see. I mean,
isn't that the same for everyone?
Speaker 3 (49:30):
Though?
Speaker 1 (49:30):
That's in porn. Well, but you've really had to up
the ante now, you know. Yeah. My thing is there
are so many different kinds of pornography that it's actually
instrumental in letting you know. Because we've talked about this before,
you don't always know what you like, right, Your brain
will tell you what you like, and sometimes it's a
(49:50):
surprise because you don't even control over it, and you're
like Oh, I didn't know I was into that, but
my brain just told me that I'm into that now.
But it's also instructive and that it tells you what
you very very much do not like, and that can
filter out into your real life. You know, there's this
They talk about it all the time, that there's this
epidemic of young men who because they were weaned on
(50:16):
a steady diet of pornography. Yes, I know, I know,
I miss you because they were weaned steady diet of pornography,
that they have a real hard time maintaining intimate relationships.
And women will complain that guys bring all that porny
crap into real life, but it also is useful in
(50:36):
telling you what you don't like.
Speaker 8 (50:39):
This is a lot of that porny stuff that shows
up in real life. It's just gonna happen anyway on
a boredom. It's at a certain point. It's not necessarily
because you saw it in porn right, like I think
you just if you're.
Speaker 1 (50:50):
Doing the same thing. Yeah, but there's all the same years.
But there's a well I'm not talking I'm talking about
young single men. Oh okay, yeah, no, listen, there only
so many holes in the human body. So you know
if they knew it's through Chris Rock sent it. If
you're in it for a long time, you figure it out.
They're talking about young the single. I see what you're
(51:11):
saying now, yeah, yeah, So so you start there in
not someplace you would strive to get to. Yes, always
with consent.
Speaker 20 (51:19):
I'm gone the porn stars, so as I can screw
the ladies cocaine on me and ride around in my
Mercedes lesbians and get thoss and women in their eighties.
I am gonna do among because I am not Afraids.
Speaker 1 (51:33):
Born star. No.
Speaker 20 (51:35):
I can see it now, cavy are and bind stars
on these.
Speaker 9 (51:38):
I make my vow.
Speaker 20 (51:39):
I will be that these porn star in the world
has ever seen. I'm just me and a woman in
a machina. Midge haven't six up on the screen. I'm
getting on the train tonight to find my full champagne.
It's only a matter of time. You'll everyone will know
my name. I've gotta practice upon or work gone my aid.
So if anyone wants to help me out out of more.
Speaker 21 (51:59):
Than gay orne start sounds to me like this God,
just so glad I don't get the rage and civilis
that will be the biggest porn start of the world
has ever.

Of course, you can listen on the iHeartRadio app and

(54:13):
If you listen to us on the app, tell me
where you do it. There's a whole lot of people
who have checked in from points around North America. Bill
listens in Rockville, Queensland, Australia. Just got a new photo
by the way, from our friend Jeff, who is currently
visiting some family there in Australia, and he has been
tagging places all around the continent with alan Cochro stickers.
(54:39):
And I've been posting those when I get a minute
at the Alancanchho facebook page. But thank you to anybody
who tags. Rachel was in Memphis, and you know, people
like to do that and I appreciate it. Todd listens
in Saltillo, Mississippi. Carry is in Clayton, North Carolina. What's
a weird one? These are all weird? Right? Ty is
in Bardstown? Can t Have you ever been in Bardstown? No, sir,
(55:02):
you know it used to be called Shakespeare Phil Hmmm interesting,
Oh boy, swinging a mess good and you can leave
us messages to you.
Speaker 16 (55:14):
Guys were talking about the monkeys that escaped and the
one lady shot one because she was worried about her kids.
Speaker 6 (55:19):
And I don't know the situation.
Speaker 10 (55:20):
Maybe he was.
Speaker 16 (55:21):
Charging at her kid or whatever.
Speaker 6 (55:22):
But I'm with Rob.
Speaker 16 (55:23):
And that second one, the preacher, the Man of God
quote unquote, who.
Speaker 24 (55:27):
Took out one of quote unquote God's creatures from a tree.
Speaker 16 (55:31):
That's disgusting.
Speaker 1 (55:32):
Man.
Speaker 16 (55:32):
The description of it falling out and oh and then
it made it a little ways.
Speaker 6 (55:36):
And then it wasn't dead yet.
Speaker 16 (55:37):
That's gross. It was up in a tree. It wasn't
hurting anybody. So people thought they were infected. You know
what is infected raccoons.
Speaker 6 (55:43):
And stuff running around with rabies apossums. When I see one,
I'm not like, oh, I better go shoot this.
Speaker 11 (55:49):
It's infected with rabies.
Speaker 16 (55:51):
Nah f that noise man, man of God.
Speaker 4 (55:53):
My ass.
Speaker 1 (55:54):
Wow, he's right. He's taking more of an all creatures
great and a small approach to the situation. I gotta
tell you, I'm surprised that someone has that perspective. Usually
people are so paranoid and so prepared to shoot first
and ask questions later that when it comes to what
they believe to be an infected monkey, it might not
(56:17):
be the way I would have gone. But I fully
understand people taking that action. But good on him, I
guess doesn't care for that. He thinks that that pastor
you know who killed I think they got all three
of those monkeys now, But I still pastor that shot
the one out of the tree. He didn't like that
at all. But even the one like protecting my kids.
Speaker 8 (56:38):
I mean, if you're in your car and it's on
your hood, if you're outside and you can't get away, okay,
But when you're in your backyard and you could just
be like, hey, kids, get inside, I don't know.
Speaker 1 (56:51):
I don't think you'd kill it. Yeah, but then how
long are you gonna Are you gonna stay in your
house while a monkey is stalking the perimeter?
Speaker 11 (56:57):
Like no.
Speaker 8 (57:00):
You make that call to the They're all looking for
this thing. They want to shoot it. Fine, that's up
to them. But I don't know.
Speaker 1 (57:09):
I just Rob, what gun is an unfired gun? It's
a very good question. That's no con right. Good is
having a gun if you never get to use it.
People are just like I have it. I hope I
never have to eat. You can't wait to use it. Stop,
you have a boner you're waiting to use this thing.
(57:33):
Speaking of ducks, Cody sent me a piece of video Facebook.
I saw this and thought of Rob. If you're familiar
with Eider ducks, I saw this day on the last
stream here. Eider ducks large sea ducks with incredibly soft
down which they pluck from their own bodies to line
their nests. But their sound is interesting and I'd love
(57:58):
to play it for you if I can get the
sound of work. Very impressed with it by the sounds
of things. Oh my, oh wow, Jenna Jamison in the nineties,
Oh my, oh, Eider ducks.
Speaker 4 (58:14):
How about that?
Speaker 1 (58:14):
Oh yeah, I wish that's what they sounded like next
to my house. And then Jeremiah another chapter in the
Duck saga. He has sent another AI song now I
haven't listened to this, we're gonna hear it for the
first time together. He sent us a song called Duck Nuts.
Now Rob lives.
Speaker 25 (58:34):
Next door, and Rob is a guy who could really
use a wind, the kind of guy who you could
always depend on, who's.
Speaker 1 (58:41):
Only real sounds like Remember Bobby Gaylor the Sunscreen song.
Remember in the Nights where Sunscreen Robins was Jimmy Buffin, and.
Speaker 25 (58:51):
If you asked him what was going on, he'd laugh
and tell you about when he got a finger in
his buttthole while wrestling. But recently, if you ask him
what's going on and he says, it's the ducks, and
he means it too.
Speaker 1 (59:05):
I know it sounds absurd, but the poor.
Speaker 25 (59:08):
Guy is nuts and all you have to do is
ask him.
Speaker 1 (59:14):
He'll tell you the same thing. It's the ducks. And
I mean I hear the ducks. We all hear the ducks.
There's nothing wrong with here in the ducks. The ducks
are there. But the way that Rob hears.
Speaker 25 (59:26):
The ducks, you think that the duck and sometimes he
goes out there and he's hell.
Speaker 1 (59:31):
That's why I up here. People are putting together some
real demented versions of songs. I love it. Yeah, I
like this new spoken word ambient vibe that some of
our contributors are leaning into. First one's much better. The
first song is Rob Ducks Yeah, which I'm still sending
to people. By the way, that's that one. Hit it
out of the park with that one. So this one
(59:53):
is good.
Speaker 8 (59:53):
I forgot all about the wrestling thing and then I
told that story. I'm like, when did they have someone
stick of finger and finger.
Speaker 1 (59:58):
Your but all resting right, it must be true, Rob,
It's right there in the AI generated song. Oh, it's
definitely true. We talked about it. It's the ducks are
the way that Rob. Here's the ducks.
Speaker 25 (01:00:08):
You think that Rob lives in the duck and sometimes
he goes out there and he's telling.
Speaker 2 (01:00:12):
At the ducks and I'm like, Rob, what are you doing?
Speaker 1 (01:00:14):
And He's like, it's the ducks. And I'm like, all right, Bob,
I mean, if you have no way that Rob, there's
a lot going on not going on, right. It lacks
the genius simplicity of Rob hates ducks. It's right to
the point.
Speaker 26 (01:00:30):
Hey, Rob, hey, dugs they quack call hey Rob, Hey,
they quack call success.
Speaker 1 (01:00:42):
He said, Yo, my neighbors got dugs. They be fucking
nor dead. But what big ihead enough? And every time
I sleep, maybe fucking up storm. Every time I leave here,
the duck's going off.
Speaker 2 (01:00:53):
All I hear is quack quackquag like a Donald Duck
ad lib.
Speaker 1 (01:00:57):
Quack quackquack like a Donald Duck ad lib. It's there,
it in there. And that's my favorite line, like a
Donald Duck ad lib. Because if you have a cartoon
animal rob and anthropomorphic animal who's talking, he's only going
(01:01:17):
to speak English or quack, right, So an ad lib
that could just as easily be English, but in this
case a quack like a Donald Duck AdLib. And now
I feel I've over explained it. So anyway, thank you.
Speaking of I don't want to hide Jeremiah's light under
a bushel basket. He reworked the Monroe Ficus song so
(01:01:42):
that it pronounces fightus properly. That can only improve it.
Remember were talking about that, like with these AI things,
you really have to spell a lot of things phonetically
for it to do it properly. But he did Monroe
Ficus at Monroe from too close for comfort, of course,
and he did a and this song is called The
(01:02:03):
Enigma of Monroe Ficus, which was Jim J. Bullock's character's name.
Speaker 27 (01:02:10):
Hey, it's Eric in Penhills, Pennsylvania. This message is about
two things you'd recently talked about. First, you talked about
bureau chiefs updating you on their location and also the
persistence of Monroe. Well, when I moved from Pensacola, Florida
to Monroeville, Pennsylvania ten years ago, I let you know
about my location change, and you and Erica both said
Monroe as soon as I said Monroeville, Pennsylvania. So bits
(01:02:33):
come and go, But I don't know if this one's
ever gonna go way completely.
Speaker 1 (01:02:36):
Oh yeah, it ebbs and flows man. But again, you
got to nail the inflection. Eric's doing a weird thing there. Yep,
you got Monroe Monroe just the Ted night. So yeah,
I Erica and I am.
Speaker 8 (01:02:54):
Monroe Monroe, and the emphastus is very important, that impression.
Speaker 1 (01:03:01):
Do you want to hear the Enigma of Monroe Ficus
two point zero? Yes, it's still got fair warning. It's
still got that same kind of dark, creepy ambient spoken
word vibe.
Speaker 8 (01:03:13):
That's all right, I think because it was the mispronunciation
that had me off on it.
Speaker 1 (01:03:17):
Yes, and I think this time the male and female
voices have been transposed, so it's the woman and the
guy going back and forth.
Speaker 3 (01:03:29):
Monroe, You're a peculiar one, aren't you.
Speaker 10 (01:03:41):
Monroe. Oh, you're gonna get used to me. Eventually, You're
not getting rid of me. It's not gonna happen.
Speaker 21 (01:03:52):
No, no, no, the assistance of Monroe Ficus.
Speaker 1 (01:04:00):
Monroe Ficus an enigma of a man.
Speaker 10 (01:04:04):
To this day, nobody knows what exactly it is that
you do.
Speaker 1 (01:04:10):
Some say you might be a second I mean it
really could be. I mean, you know when they'll do
like an SNL bit where they'll take something super jaunty
and they'll turn it into a horror film. That's kind
of like the vibe of this. You know. The character
on that show. By the way, Mike, who is one
of our bureau chieves, he's a part of the ESPN organization.
(01:04:31):
He goes, I know you're not on Twitter anymore, so
you probably missed this. But add one more check to
the November eleventh calendar, Rob because it's Veterans Day of course. Yeah,
yesterday marked the one year anniversary of Rob here on
the show. It was also the three year anniversary of
(01:04:53):
my vasectomy.
Speaker 10 (01:04:54):
Huh.
Speaker 1 (01:04:55):
And it was the forty fifth anniversary yesterday of Too
Close for Comfort Oh no kidding, the show from which
Monroe Monroe is pulled. Yes, forty five years ago November
the eleventh, nineteen eighty is when that premiere with Ted
Knight and Nancy Do.
Speaker 8 (01:05:12):
So it also marks your first deer strike. Shut up, Rod,
I'm just thinking the things for that day. I know
that one's at the very bottom of the list.
Speaker 1 (01:05:24):
By the way, you might not.
Speaker 8 (01:05:26):
Maybe you'll celebrate it once you end up out of
this situation. You know, new car. You know, like, if
this didn't happen, that wouldn't happen, and that puts you
in this place for this to happen.
Speaker 1 (01:05:35):
So you celebrate it because without the deer, your butterfly
effect nonsense.
Speaker 8 (01:05:40):
Never would have had that Lamborghini suv you've been craving.
Speaker 1 (01:05:45):
Yeah, that's true. See yeah, Lamborghini suv. Yeah. Ah, they
know me, don't they.
Speaker 11 (01:05:50):
Yes?
Speaker 1 (01:05:51):
Yeah. You know a lot of sitcom theme songs had
lyrics back then, not this one. They would just show
you the stars name on the televiion Ted Night, that
Nancy do so with Ted Night. It's unnecessary. You don't
need lyrics. You just got to see it's Ted Night.
You're like, I'm watching this. Yeah, Deborah van Vaulkenberg and
(01:06:14):
Lydio Cornell, and then Jim J. Bullock shows up. I think, Oh,
I thought they put him in the credits. Maybe season
two they put him in the credits. Anyway, Yeah, nineteen
eighty you're talking about Monroe Monroe forty five years ago yesterday. Yes,
thank you Mike for that, because obviously I would not
have caught that Monroe. But as I'm quite sure, we
(01:06:38):
are probably the only radio program in North America talking
about frigging too close for Comfort on any type of
regular basis, especially relevant around here. They come up once
in a while when someone's like, oh, what the hell
was the name of that show?
Speaker 8 (01:06:52):
The woman the guy from Caddy Shack, Ted Knight, what
was the name of his show?
Speaker 1 (01:06:56):
Too Close for Comfort? That would be the other time
someone might mention it also regular recurring, Yeah, deep dive.
The very last season of that show, they rebranded it
the Ted Night Show. Oh but the same cast, I believe,
the same cast.
Speaker 8 (01:07:09):
Boy, That seems like a weird thing. To do when
you're already into a run of a show, doesn't I know.
Speaker 1 (01:07:14):
I think maybe it was a last, last ditch effort
or something. But yeah, and that got canceled real fast,
unless I'm wrong on that. The Ted Night Show, Oh
it was, oh I see his Yeah, too Close for
Comfort was retitled the Ted Night Show. It was about
(01:07:36):
the owner of an escort service. Wait what what what?
Speaker 8 (01:07:42):
He played a different guy, so it wasn't too close,
So they just they did a different show.
Speaker 1 (01:07:48):
It was spun off from a show called Busting Loose.
Don't I vaguely remember that in the late seventies. That's
another Jamison. Yeah, bust and Loose sere for Lucy. Yeah. Anyway,
and you know, my brain goes to, I wonder what dumb,
obscure show another program might be doing a deep dive on.
(01:08:10):
It's not like we do a deep dive on this, right.
It begins, it ends with Monroe and it's dumb. But
it just makes me laugh. And that is a proper
name that you'll see a lot just in your omal life.
But you got to figure, what if there's a show somewhere,
like there's a really popular show in Seattle and on
a regular basis. They're talking about Manimal or Hardcastle and McCormick, right,
(01:08:35):
but there's no Monroe on those shows.
Speaker 8 (01:08:38):
Talk about eighties kids shows like you can't do that
on television, yeah, right with Alanis Morisset's young Alanis Morrisset
and I think Ryan Reynolds, were you young enough to
watch that show?
Speaker 1 (01:08:51):
We didn't have cable, so I didn't see Nickelodeon. I
would see it at my grandmother's house. She had cable,
and we went to her house for dinner after church
every Sunday. So the only time I ever saw cable
television was at my grandmother's And so I was familiar
with Nickelodeon. I mean it's been around for like forty
plus years. Yep. It was called something else. I think
precursor in Nickelodeon had a different name. But no, so
(01:09:12):
we didn't have cable, so I didn't grow up watching Nickelodeon.
So I had to pretend like I knew what my
peers were talking about. When they were like, oh, did
you see you can't do Oh they got slimed, I'm like, yeah,
they got slimed. Oh that slime. I was like Steve
Carrell in the forty year Old Virgin right when he's talking. Yeah,
boobs are like bags of sand. I know all about
(01:09:33):
those things. Yeah, that was me with cable television. Do
you remember a show late eighties a girl was an alien.
She was like a half alien half human. Small wonder. Nope,
that she was a robot. She was a robot kids
TV or a regular show. It was like a regular show.
Speaker 8 (01:09:50):
Was this sitcom was on for a few years. She
was a she was like she was. It was like
a teenage age girl. She was half an alien, and
it was like out of this world. That was I
remember watching that. When you talk about obscure shows, I
remember that was a show that I would not miss.
Speaker 1 (01:10:09):
I saw that show every week. I remember that. That
was a show where the mom was in Saturday night fever.
That's what I remember about. They were trying this actress,
am Donna Pascal. They were trying to make her a
thing like she had her own sitcom for a while.
She was you know, she's done even Stevens early Shilah
(01:10:29):
buff Okay, but yeah, out of this world. I haven't
thought of that show.
Speaker 8 (01:10:34):
You just said obscure eighties shows, and I was thinking
and it popped into my head. I haven't thought of
that show, and probably since it was on. Yeah, Ethel
was there an Ethel Garland.
Speaker 1 (01:10:44):
Ethel Monroe Monroe Ethyl Earth? All all right, now, I
gotta look this up. Earlyn Carr show on one hundreds
call the alley Cock.
Speaker 11 (01:11:00):
Show, Cops, Cops?
Speaker 6 (01:11:02):
Is that with the nix?
Speaker 19 (01:11:03):
Yes two one six seven eight one double oh seven
or one three four eight one double o seven?
Speaker 1 (01:11:29):
Why has our clockmen flashing all day? I was looking
at that.
Speaker 8 (01:11:32):
I don't know what that means, started to know how
to reset it, and it started a little before noon.
Speaker 1 (01:11:37):
It used to be or an oak tree. It would
do that when there had been an eas or something
like that, but I don't think anything like that went out,
So I was curious. I don't know, not that it
really changes anything. I'm just curious, and it's probably just
like everything else that broken. Thinking out loud, Alan, I
think Nickelodeon was called pin Wheel originally. I know what
(01:11:58):
you're thinking of. It was always nickelum A. Pinwheel was
the very first show that they had on, and I
think the whole thing might have started on a Columbus. Actually,
Nickelodeon started in the late seventies and it was just
called like Kids Satellite channel or something, and I'm pretty
sure Pinwheel was the very first show that they had
(01:12:20):
on it because again as a little kid, my grandma
had cable television, and you know, these early cable channels,
they didn't have nationwide clearance, so you'd get them regionally,
or you'd get them not only regionally, but at certain
hours of the day. Right, he wasn't all remember, I mean,
(01:12:40):
you can go to the late eighties and remember when
they first signed the Fox Network on, they didn't have
programming twenty four to seven. They had like three shows.
The Fox Network started on Sunday nights. That was all
they had. They had married with Children, and they had
the Simpsons, and they had like a bunch of crap
shows that went away pretty quickly. They only had the
Fox Network started on Sunday nights only, and then the
(01:13:03):
rest of the week it was just like syndicated stuff
that like local affiliates would run and they built it
up from there. But had they not had married with
children and the Simpsons, which were married with children, was
like a runaway hit. And I think the Simpsons got
going pretty quickly, not at the Gate but and Rob
(01:13:24):
fun fact, guess which one of those shows is still on?
Oh boy, the Simpsons. Yes, the Simpsons are still on. God,
I got that right. I was clicking around. I don't
know what it was that was clicking around the other night,
because sometimes i'll go through the streamers. If I have
an hour to watch television, I'll go I don't know,
(01:13:46):
it's too much, like there's a couple shows that I'll watch,
but barring that, I'll just put on Hulu Live and
I'll click around, like it's frigging cable in the nineteen
nineties and somebody was showing Merry with Children. It's so
or one of those channels the show's old shows, it's
still funny. I wasn't I don't know if I wasn't
(01:14:08):
allowed to watch it. I mean, I would have been
frigging seventeen when that show was on, so I'm sure
it wasn't that. It's just my parents weren't watching it.
We had one TV. My parents weren't watching it, and
so I wasn't watching it. So I never really it
was set in Chicago, but that was just the exteriors, right.
There was never like any reference otherwise to that really,
(01:14:29):
but never watched Mary with Children now and I click
it on occasionally, you know, once every five years. I'm like,
it's funny, very funny. Christina Applegate's Foxy, Oh God, I
loved her. Katie Sagal's great loved her too, But no,
I never really got into that show.
Speaker 3 (01:14:48):
Al.
Speaker 1 (01:14:49):
Do you remember a show called down to Earth Early
days of TBS, an angel who was in nineteen twenties
flapper girl run over by a trolley, helping to raise
a widower's family. I don't remember that, oh, but I
do love that. Somebody else mentioned It's Your Move with
Jason Bateman, and I'm a huge Bateman fan, and so
that comes up pretty frequently. You know, this guy did
(01:15:11):
a million shows in the eighties, But no, I don't
remember down to Earth. Right between You and Rob. Three
obscure eighties shows Wizards and Warriors with Jeff Conaway. Remember
that guy, the late Jeff Conaway. He got big on Taxi. Yes, uh,
mister Wizard with a guy from Time Bandits and one
(01:15:33):
about an electrical superhero. I never missed, mister Wizard. That
was Nickelodeon too, I guess, yeah, mister, but this sounds
like a show called mister Wizard. Okay, I was just
talking with a science show. Yeah, yeah, mister Wizard. I
loved that show. Well. I liked that he wasn't too
hoity toity about things, right. He could have called himself
commander Wizard. He could have called himself Wizard. Yes, doctor wizard.
(01:16:01):
I mean he probably had some kind of He was
like the precursor to Bill Nye as far as television went, right,
he was great. Yeah, Don Herbert. I don't know why
I remember that that was his name, but that was
his name, and I think that was another show that
started regionally, right. He was like a guy who worked
at a radio station in Chicago. Mister Wizard started on
the NBC affiliate in Chicago, and then they beamed it
(01:16:26):
out and so that's what we got. I remember.
Speaker 8 (01:16:30):
He was like he was just north of being a
dick to everybody all the time. He'd be like, what
do you think is going to happen if I mix
these two things together? One of these is baking soda,
the other one is vinegar. What do you think is
going to happen? And the kid be like, I don't
know nothing, no, stupid, It's going to cause a reaction.
It's gonna look like a volcano. That's what they put
(01:16:50):
inside of these things when you have science projects. It
was every time. It was so funny.
Speaker 1 (01:16:54):
They did a parody on SNL with Bill Hayter, remember
that where he plays mister Wizard and he's the whole
vibe is him being like, no pay attention. I don't remember.
And it was because people picked up on the fact
that Don Herbert was a little prickly. I gave up
on SNL for a very long time. I finally gave
(01:17:16):
up on it for good. I felt like one of
the last people on the planet watching it every week,
and that was up until a couple years ago. And
I think what drove me away was every week it
turned into a host that I didn't know any of
their work because they're keeping them young, I get it,
and a musical guest I had never heard of, Yeah,
And I was like, I'm out. I mean, you know,
(01:17:37):
and I can't imagine rob that they missed me.
Speaker 8 (01:17:41):
I think they miss every single person that's not watching
that show. Oh, it's a very very difficult show to
keep going for as long as they have.
Speaker 9 (01:17:49):
No right Lauren electrons good and when we rub up
against something. Sometimes those tiny electrons move. Now, everyone, take

You get on your sweater, in your arm. You can't
even rub your partner. You go, very good, Okay, go ahead, yeah,
(01:18:11):
very good, get worked up at science.
Speaker 4 (01:18:14):
Very good.
Speaker 1 (01:18:16):
All right. And of course because their kids going through puberty,
allegedly they're like rubbing it on their crotches and boobs.
Speaker 9 (01:18:22):
And there Chris, Chris, Chris, Claudette Claudette. Guys, guys, that's

I've heard catch up podcasts.
Speaker 28 (01:19:10):
I've heard Festive glory Hole several times now. Great song,
absolute Christmas banger. But now that magic has flipped to
Christmas music, I'm really hoping it's time for you to
bust out old timey Christmas. I'm desperately need to hear it.
Speaker 1 (01:19:29):
Hey, you haven't played it yet this year? Only time
a Christmas? Yeah, no, because I wanted to give Festive
glory Hole a lot of breathing room. Only Timey Christmas
has been around. I mean, I did that song ten
years ago, and I wanted to give Festive glory Hole.
It's due as possibly the Air Apparent rob right. Although
(01:19:51):
I didn't create that song. I created only Timey Christmas. Alan.
Do you remember a show called Mantis? I do remember that.
It was another show that was like canceled it there
one season. I don't remember that. That was the guy
in the Oh God, the guy's in the Marvel Cinematic Universe.
Now he's in uh he's in the New Captain America movies.
He was a paraplegic that put a suit on that
(01:20:14):
let him go out and fight crime. Nantis was an
acronym for something, so it was a comedy. It was
sci fi just joking. Oh uh no, it wasn't anyway.
Here you are, sir well, it looks like a sign
to put all our glad.

Time Christmas this year and the risk of the wrong
right er, I'm gonna head off myself, say kind which way.
Speaker 1 (01:22:08):
The old all right? Anyway, it's holy but a goodie,
an oldie, timy, but a goodie that people are telling
me that there was an e A S that went
out earlier today, okay during Stansbury show that the SB
why it's flashing. I was in here the whole time.
I didn't hear it. The gimblet let let take the
blitza reference, very politically incorrect. Great, this came from Rob.
(01:22:34):
It's a fantastic drink. I don't think I've ever had
a gimlet. Oh it's great. It's a martini but with gin.
I like the phrase gimblet eyed. I like that literary device,
but I uh a gamblet. I dame over here. I've
never had a gimlet. It's I like gin. Is it
a it's a gin drink? Right, it's it's a martini basically,
I think, but with gin. Right, isn't that what a
(01:22:55):
gimlet is?
Speaker 8 (01:22:56):
But no, no, no, no, this is the gimlet has lime
in it, right, But it is a based drinks, right people.
Speaker 1 (01:23:02):
Can you can get a vodka gimblet? I've heard you know,
that's the main spirit is. But I would rather have
gin than vodka. Yes, yeah, it's lime, I forgot. I
get them all mixed up something gin, lime, juice and
simple serrp Oh that's all it is. Yeah, Oh, I
thought there was something else. I didn't realize it was
like a two recipe thing with a lime. Speaking of gimlets, now,
(01:23:25):
straight from the dubious Studies file comes the story that
was going around that binge drinking could be an indicator
of success later in life. Binge drinking in your youth
may lead to career success in later life. You know,
they talk about how a lot of alcoholics are manufactured
in college. And I didn't really drink. I always say
(01:23:48):
I didn't drink until I was twenty six when I
got into radio. I could count on one hand the
times I drank in four years of college. So it
wasn't like it was a full on teetotaler. But I
almost never drank. Like I had a friend. Her boyfriend
bought a bar and she was helping him manage it,
(01:24:10):
so we'd go in on a random Tuesday night. Was
by the Lincoln Park Zoo. It's long gone and there
was nobody there, and she would just get behind the bar.
You know, we're drinking whatever. But as a general rule
in college, I didn't drink. It just wasn't my thing.
I got hammered and puked all night when I was fifteen,
and I said, f this. But I had a lot
(01:24:31):
of friends, as a lot of people do. You might
be one of those friends who spent the better part
of college blacked out. Now, I think it's a little
bit of a misleading headline because I think what they
mean is it's a really good way to learn how
to socialize with people, alcohol being the social lubricant and
(01:24:54):
that so it's not really the drinking that makes sure
that you're a success later on, but it is a
device to help you socialize.
Speaker 8 (01:25:00):
Oh damn it, I was holding I hope that there
was a chance. I know I'd been a hinge drinker
for most of my life.
Speaker 1 (01:25:08):
Getting ready to take off Rob any day now. Yeah,
while alcohol has been confirmed to cause a wide variety
of long term side effects, there is a correlation between
heavy drinking in your youth. That's the thing that's interesting
to me, is they the heavy drinking. You know, Listen,
you can say to anybody, oh, yeah, we go to
(01:25:29):
the bar and you have a good time with your friends,
And that's differ than heavy drinking. The ability to advance
young people's careers by breaking down social inhibitions and reducing awkwardness. Yeah,
a lot of this hinges on the fact that a
lot of people are feel awkward or weird or whatever.
(01:25:51):
That was never a thing for me. I was like
awkward situations. And so listen, maybe that is still ahead
of us, Rob, Maybe our career success is still ahead
of us. Let's go, because boy, when I started drinking
at twenty six, I tried to make up for lost time. Boy,
I mean I was drunk a lot once between like
(01:26:15):
twenty six and thirty three. I never hit stop, once
I hit play.
Speaker 8 (01:26:19):
So I just went, I'm drinking less now than I
have probably in my entire life.
Speaker 1 (01:26:25):
Yeah. Well, because this is a very social job, and
so it's like when we're out that's normally what we're doing.
I'm not a sitting at home and drinking guy, you know,
go home and have a beer. I have a I
have a beverage fridge in my garage that's full of booze,
but I couldn't tell the last time I pulled anything
out of it. I would go home and have a cocktail.
Speaker 8 (01:26:47):
I have really that in quite sometimes like a gin gimlet,
like a gin yeah, like yeah, no, I would.
Speaker 1 (01:26:51):
I would have a Martinez. I would have a Manhattan.
I would. I'm not a side coss ali. I used
to love going to like, you know, bars and testing
the bar center, just asking for a really old timey
drink allout of Tom Collins. Hey, how about I don't
make something up? What's in a black Betty lamb? Huh?
A lot of lamb of lamb?
Speaker 3 (01:27:13):
Yes?
Speaker 1 (01:27:13):
And I think you said leg of lamb, you know,
like on those bottomless a lot of these places you do, like, uh,
the whacked out bloody Mary bars. You know, Hey, how
do you like birthday cake and bacon and like a lamb? Ellen?
How are you doing all the Christmas stuff and not
spotlighting Brenda Lee and her filthy filthy mouth well that sure,
(01:27:35):
I was assuming that would just show up eventually. Brenda
Lee and her f and pie Rob was the one
that brought this to my attention last season. You know,
she was a teenager when she recorded it, and it's
a considered a classic. They play it all the time
over there on Magic when they're doing the Christmas thing,
but it is it was rare to hear explotives in
those early songs. Yeah, a little squeak in there too,
(01:28:02):
But don't know where the debate is. Like, everyone's like,
oh no, she's saying punkin No, she's not. I've never
heard that punky after the the explotives. We're not really
flying in contemporary music back then. No, she got to
give her credit. And there's a distillery down near Canton
that makes a blood orange gin cool, oh god for you? Yeah,
(01:28:26):
all right, Well something to consider now, if you've ever
heard Rob talk about the places near him, all the
better if it's a locally sourced blood orange right, uh,
spirit right right, I'm not I'm not.
Speaker 8 (01:28:42):
Poo pooing the local spirits in the least, not my point, right,
But if you're a full service bar, have a full
have a good list of those things.
Speaker 1 (01:28:56):
You know, Oh, we don't have gray goose. What do
you mean I have gray Goose?
Speaker 8 (01:28:59):
All right, I'll find I think I want kettle one. Then, oh,
we have a vanilla kettle one. I don't want vanilla
kettle one. I want a kettle one martini. We have
kettle three. Have you ever had that before?
Speaker 1 (01:29:11):
Yeah?
Speaker 8 (01:29:11):
We Well, we got a place next door that makes vodka,
so we get it from them for the plane stuff.
Speaker 1 (01:29:17):
Damn it? So blood Orange Gin all right? I like
the singer Blood Orange, big fan of M. Check that
out when you're down there. I try the Blood Orange
next time I get to North Canton, M. Maybe next
time I'm down at Northeast Factory director Robin north Campton there,
visiting all the locations, just to stay on top of it,
(01:29:38):
you know what. I like to poke my head in
and I go away, and everybody looks at me and go,
hell is this guy that's me on cock still not
a big box store? Well done you? They go? Who
I go, el Coxen you commercials like fifteen years whatever?
Cool man? No, I'm kidding, you're very nice. I think
big gulps huh ling car show on one.
Speaker 18 (01:30:01):
Do you think this guy's going to do one thing,
then does another thing, then a third thing.
Speaker 26 (01:30:08):
Happens, and it's a bummer because you.
Speaker 15 (01:30:10):
Kind just want him to keep doing that middle thing.
Speaker 1 (01:30:14):
It's all very frustrating.
Speaker 31 (01:30:16):
The Erntox show WMMS more money here for about ten minutes.
Speaker 1 (01:30:28):
Another one thousand dollars courtesy of the Buzzard bookie. Last
keyword of the day around five thirty and then Tomorrow
and Friday. Last couple of days for to win for
a while, but a lot of chances with RMG and
Dan and me. One thousand dollars by the way, which
apparently is going to go a long way. At brown Stadium,
(01:30:52):
there's eleven dollars tickets to see Miles Garrett and Lamar
Jackson battle it out on a football field. And that's
no but he can't well when somebody was pointing out
it's cheaper. The tickets are cheaper than the concessions. Cheeseburger
is thirteen dollars, the stadium nachos will cost you twelve.
You can buy a ticket for the Browns game on
(01:31:14):
Sunday for eleven dollars. That's the Browns playing the former
Browns like it usually should be a game that people
want to be at I'll probably put you out in
the parking lot, but still cares being a hot dog,
still more expensive at fourteen dollars. I had no idea
the concessions were that cheap. A thirteen dollar cheeseburger, I
(01:31:34):
had no idea they were that cheap. Is that cheap?
So I get the point that they're trying to make. Yeah,
but everything is crazy priced at the stadium now icy
at a stadium.
Speaker 3 (01:31:42):
Now.
Speaker 1 (01:31:42):
I'm not singling them out. I'm just saying, that's the
one that's here. Twelve dollars, nachos beering a hot dog
for fourteen dollars. It sounds frigging reasonable these days anyway.
And everybody makes the old joke, right, I got pulled over.
He gave me a tiicket. It it was to a
Browns game. I thought I was getting pulled over today?
(01:32:05):
Did you really? Oh? I was screaming to get here.
I was running a little bit behind.
Speaker 8 (01:32:09):
Oh, you were flying and up by the airport. I
don't know what how this and then this dude lit
somebody else up like moments later or so. Yeah, I
was probably and I'm normally not a lead foot, but
I was in a hurry.
Speaker 1 (01:32:25):
I was probably fifteen miles an hour over where I
should have been. Yep. See, I do have a lead foot,
and I'm always trying to be not Last night when
the deer hit me, it's going twenty five. But I
have over the years, I have made a concerted effort.
Speaker 8 (01:32:39):
But I have a lead foot. Yeah, I tried not to,
and yeah I was. I saw him and I actually
came up on him. I was up by the airport
and just kind of came up behind a sheriff and
I was like, oh, and he just put on his blinker,
got over in the middle lane, and then of course
I slowed down and I got behind him, and then
he and it goes into the right lane, slows down
(01:33:01):
so I could tell he's looking at my plate, obviously
runs my plate, and then he gets into the middle
lane right behind me, gets into the right into the
left lane and passes me.
Speaker 1 (01:33:10):
He looks at me and just goes.
Speaker 8 (01:33:13):
And then two miles up ahead, I saw you had
somebody else pulled over. Why he didn't pull me over,
I have no like unless he saw the buzzard sticker.
Speaker 1 (01:33:23):
And he was like, hey, all right, I.
Speaker 8 (01:33:26):
Don't know what the hell else it could have been,
because I would have given me a ticket. Yeah, So sir,
if you're listening, thank you didn't need a ticket today.
Speaker 1 (01:33:35):
Or he's gonna send me one of the mail Maybe that's.
Speaker 4 (01:33:38):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (01:33:39):
I get those camera tickets too. I try to pay
attention when I'm in a part of town where I
know that they are, and then somehow I'll forget.
Speaker 10 (01:33:47):
Yeah.
Speaker 8 (01:33:47):
I don't think that would have happened here because that
would have been Ah, it's not an area they do that,
I don't think, right. So is seventy one North by
the airport. Yeah, the Berea Freeway. If you listen to
us on iHeartRadio, tell me where you do it. If
you're from out of state.
Speaker 1 (01:34:06):
We have hundreds and hundreds of people on our map
of these United States, and we have bureau chiefs in
Canada as well. Jeff is way out in Palmer, Alaska.
Cynthia listens in Surprise, Arizona. Andy is a bureau chief
in Topeka, Kansas. John listens in Glen Bernie, Maryland. And
(01:34:33):
Lisa z is up there in Buffalo, New York. Hey, Allen,
I can't help but think that maybe if you had
one more Celsius in your diet for the week, you
would have been awake and not hit that deer. I
don't know. I'm just saying, Monrob not to completely beat the.
Speaker 24 (01:34:49):
Piss out of it, because I know we don't need
too many ten Night references on the show.
Speaker 1 (01:34:55):
But you guys are keeping him alive in.
Speaker 27 (01:34:56):
A cotton ball's household?
Speaker 1 (01:34:58):
Does it?
Speaker 6 (01:34:58):
Ever?
Speaker 1 (01:34:58):
Since Monroe?
Speaker 27 (01:35:00):
When every one kids talk to me, another one calls,
I just say, meanwhile.
Speaker 1 (01:35:06):
Oh, yeah, he's I think a lot of people Ted
Knight wasn't the guy and the super Friends, right? I
thought that was like an urban legend. But was that
him that? I don't know. Meanwhile, back at the Hall
of Justice, I don't think, so what was it. I
thought that people thought that because it sounded like him,
but it wasn't. Oh maybe it was Ted Knight. Meanwhile
(01:35:29):
at the Hall of Justice, Okay, oh there you go.
I thought that we all thought that. But somebody's like, no,
now is somebody else? You learned something new every day? Indeed, Alan,
there's a great video called Mister Wizard is a Dick.
You gotta find it. Well I did find it.
Speaker 11 (01:35:45):
Oh good, Yes, Well, today I'm going to stick them
in you i'bout all the paper you wasted. Do you
count that as a fold because I already see that
it's not random. Don't jump the conclusions. Why isn't random?
I told you to write down random numbers? You mean,
not exactly?
Speaker 1 (01:36:04):
You can or can't? You none?
Speaker 6 (01:36:06):
Right?
Speaker 11 (01:36:07):
But for the wrong reason. Sounds logical, doesn't it. Well,
that's wrong, wrong, it's wrong.
Speaker 1 (01:36:12):
Wrong. This is why people liked him, because he didn't
treat kids like kids and trying to learn stuff. I mean,
you know, he's not being I get what people mean,
like the tone. You know, he's an older guy. He
was you know, this guy, the mister wizard at that time.
He was probably my age. For God's sake, he's probably
in his early fifties. There's nothing wrong with saying someone
is wrong. It was it was when he would do things.
Speaker 8 (01:36:34):
He would almost stop short of calling a kid a
dips rimp, right, It would just be like, yeah.
Speaker 1 (01:36:40):
Well you're teaching science, right, there's a right answer and
a wrong answer. Just look at him. How stupid are
you did? That's why that you eat? That's why people
some people love science. There's a right answer and a
wrong answer. They're not interested in philosophy and the you know,
outer fringes of of some of truth they want to
(01:37:02):
wan or a zero. And Don Herbert was telling the kids.
Speaker 11 (01:37:11):
Well, you call him fingers, I'll call them propellers. You
have to make the whole bigger than that.
Speaker 1 (01:37:16):
Obviously.
Speaker 11 (01:37:17):
Have you ever seen a slice banana before? You can't
blow off a baby's nursing nipple where you have one
of those inside your head?
Speaker 6 (01:37:23):
I do.
Speaker 11 (01:37:24):
Yeah, it's called a brain. Come on, come on, turn
it over here like that and pull it straight up.
No confidence in the science at all. You don't seem
to have a great deal of confidence.
Speaker 6 (01:37:34):
But I'm making back again.
Speaker 1 (01:37:35):
These are all good lessons for kids. Yeah, hey, have
some confidence. I'm here to teach you. You know he
didn't have to work with kids, did it? Because he
was trying to mold the next generation? Rob Boy, you're dumb. Meanwhile,
back at the whole legion of Doom, Ted Knight super Friends,
(01:38:00):
I did not know that. Still not convinced. Oh, Bill
Woodson and Ted Knight were the two guys. Okay, hold on.
Speaker 14 (01:38:12):
In the hollow dune which looks like a giant dar
Vader helmet again, adding more words to the title and
be coming.
Speaker 1 (01:38:18):
I don't need all that. I just want to know
so much. I just want to know, Dave, are you curious?
All right? Are you a fan of vodka Gimlin? You
know these fans of that? Yeah? Whoa, that's right. What
are you doing if you get a bad case? Ada
to yah, that's right, Alan, imagine if the deer was
(01:38:51):
filled with celsius instead of blood. By the way, I
wasn't dozing or anything like that. And uh, that's why
I was so frustrated last night, because I was and speeding.
I had just gotten off the highway and I had
opted to not get gas. I needed gas. You know,
my car tells me how many miles I have left.
I almost sent you a photo, Rob because I'm a
(01:39:12):
juvenile and I had sixty nine miles of gas. Nice, right,
But I'm like, no, and I gonna do that. You know,
my phone is just up on the thing on the
magnet holder or whatever. And I opted to not pull
into the gas station. This is when you do your wood.
It could have should have And had I done that,
obviously I would have missed the deer. But I was
(01:39:33):
going twenty five miles an hour probably at best, because
I'm starting to roll through my neighborhood. I'm not flying
through my neighborhood, and out of nowhere this deer off nowhere.
I didn't even have enough time to process what was happening.
It was just this massive crunch, thump or whatever, and
then this animal goes somersaulting over my hood. My son
(01:39:57):
of a bitch and again, could have been a lot work,
but the case I showed the picture on top of
the show. The consensus among our live streamers is that
this thing's gonna get totaled out. I'm seeing the same
everybody keeps saying the same.
Speaker 8 (01:40:10):
Thing, but they're using numbers like seven thousand, So I
don't know where, Like, I don't know how you estimate.
Speaker 1 (01:40:17):
I don't know either number. Yeah, I don't either. I mean,
it's you know, it's a it's a ten year old
car with two hundred twenty eight thousand miles on. That's
gonna be the hard part, I know. That's what I'm saying.
They're gonna go, Yeah, here's four grand, Okay, put it
on a new car. That's all it's gonna be. I
just didn't have that on my BINGO card. For the
end of twenty twenty five. But what good is making plans?
Speaker 3 (01:40:41):
Rob?
Speaker 8 (01:40:41):
Maybe the greatest thing ever. You'd be so happy in
a new vehicle and not having a diddle.
Speaker 1 (01:40:51):
Yeah yeah, Well I'm taking it in Monday morning, and
I know they're gonna call me and they're gonna go, Yeah,
you might just wanna hmmm, Okay. Leslie wants to know
how David Lee Roth would tell those kids how to
live their lives if he was teaching them. I live
my life like this tomorrow. Good advice, Thank you, Leslie.
(01:41:15):
You really can't reverse engineer a conversation with David Lee Roth. Dave,
what are the initials for Wisconsin University? There you go,
Thank you. Bell.
Speaker 24 (01:41:27):
Let me tell you about this game that's sweeping the nation.
It's not something that you'll find on next box, ok PlayStation.
It's the fastest one sport that no one's ever heard of.
Just give it a shot and I'm sure you fall
in love Biggleball addicting in fun.
Speaker 1 (01:41:46):
There's no joke, big boy, it couldn't be more apt
that a crazy whack song is being sung about pickleball.
There's no way to make it cool. One town over
for me. There and Rocky River. As with a lot
of other towns, they're having pickleball problems rob with people
(01:42:08):
complaining that it's loud, and you know, they keep calling
it the fastest girl export of the you know, it's
been around for the since the sixties. Pickleball, Right, there's
a reason that it pops up for six months once
a decade and then goes away just as quickly, because
if you live near one of these things, it's a
huge pain in the ass. It's loud, and all of
(01:42:31):
these kind of neighborhoods were like, well, we're going to
convert this into a pickleball court or this into a
pickleball court, and the people in these communities are beginning
to complain more and more. Gollia Sport geared toward boomers,
and they thought it was going to be Karen free.
Don't know how they arrived at that, but okay. Tensions
(01:42:52):
over pickleball flare nationwide, locally in places like Rocky River,
but all over the place. Rocky River paused their pickleball
program last week overquote ongoing behavioral concerns with adults with
adults with adults. Oh it's so sad. I mean, you know,
(01:43:14):
kids are gonna be kind of dicks, right right, Uh,
you are not gonna convince me. TikTok can pretend that
the kids are into pickleball. Nobody buys it. It's boomers
and all of these little towns. It was happening out
near me one of the parks that were like, we're
gonna these tennis courts aren't used as much anymore, We're
(01:43:34):
gonna convert into pickleball. And there had to be some
people that were like, yeah, except it's really loud. So
if you live anywhere near there, all you're gonna hear
is that noise, these plastic paddles and these oh god,
do you ever play yeah a hundred years ago, yeah,
like in college. Not regularly, but I have played it.
It's like the old Carlin bit, right, it's ping pong
(01:43:58):
standing on the table. But they keep trying. Like I said,
it's been around for decades and every few years it
comes back and they try to make it look hip,
and it ain't listen to anything to get you moving.
I got no problem with that. I think it's great outside,
you know, but they're like tiggleball.
Speaker 8 (01:44:16):
Yeah, I've never ever played. I've heard it's fun, but
it doesn't. I don't see how it's like drastically different
than anything else.
Speaker 1 (01:44:22):
That's what I'm saying. There's nothing not fun about it.
But as it blew up, I don't know why people
didn't see stuff like this coming. Yeah, it's loud, it's annoying. There's,
like I said, boomers in these communities complaining that they
can't get court time or whatever. Boise, Idaho, we have
bureau chiefs out there. They shut down all their pickleball
(01:44:44):
courts because people were filing lawsuits saying it was too
loud and people were playing late at night and using
vulgar language. Crisps. Yeah, I mean people were suing the
city of Boise over pickleball courts. Carlsbad, California. A woman
who lives next door is complaining, Hey it's really loud. Yeah,
(01:45:10):
San Diego, Arlington, Virginia. People filing lawsuits, people going to
city council meetings going hey, we don't want pickleball. You know, hey,
I got people peeing on my lawn. But that has
nothing to do with the pickleball. That'srue. Well, people get
drunk play pickball. Yeah, they're gonna wiz on somebody's lawn.
(01:45:31):
I guess pickleball's meteoric rise is how they refer to it.
More than nineteen million adults played in twenty twenty four.
I guess i'd put adults in air quotes. But yeah,
it's listen, Yeah, the kids are dipping into it for
something to do, but it's largely I have to think
(01:45:53):
it's the domain of people that are like just north
of you know, being kind of able to play tennis anymore. Man,
I could be projecting all this. I'm just saying that,
you know, Rocky River, for their part, says that the
pause is temporary, famous last words that they'll bring it
back next year with clearer rules, which I read as well,
(01:46:14):
just wait for everybody to forget about this and then
we'll move on to the next abomination in our community.
But yeah, they keep trying to make people think that
it's cool and that the kids are into it, and
it's like, nope, you say, no way, they're not. No,
it's retirees. And again, I am painting with a broadbrush,
but if you go near a pickleball court, you will
(01:46:36):
most likely see either real board kids or retirees who
are like, wow, I'm gonna keep moving, which again is great.
Anything it gets people moving is good. Orville, Ohio had
(01:46:56):
two courts and they built two more of this last summer,
and there are people playing on them all the time,
high school kids. Well yeah, in Orville, you're looking whatever
you can pick up and kicks, right, there's nothing else
to do there. I'm saying, that's a that's a different
variable if you're talking about, like you know, Rocky River
or these other places.
Speaker 8 (01:47:16):
They built one, or they were when we were when
I was last there, they were building one at Mount
Union right next to the dorms.
Speaker 1 (01:47:24):
Yeah, I get what I get having one on campus.
But I'll tell you what, the kids living in those
dorms are gonna be pissing and moaning once they hear
how loud that is all the time. Is it really loud? Well, yeah,
it's like plastic paddles and balls. Yeah, it's loud. Okay,
it kind of doesn't have the softness of tennis. It's
like a it's like a harder Do you get like
the grunts of female tennis? The Monica sellis Yeah, yeah,
(01:47:47):
I don't know about that. And as cotton Balls points
out too, these were all the same towns that like
cut all of their basketball nets off the hoop because
they were like, wait, don't the kids out there playing
mask and it attracts ruffians, pickleball toughs. Ah Allan, I
(01:48:09):
think your car is gonna get totaled out and you're
gonna be really disappointed by the offer. Oh, I think
both of those boxes are going to be checked. I'm
holding my breath. So I'll talk to Rich Klaibn once
they once I get more information, and we'll see what happens.
I know Ford doesn't do this the Dans anymore, but
if you need a thing, I mean they do trucks
(01:48:32):
and broncos.
Speaker 8 (01:48:32):
I'm sure he can get you whatever you want.
Speaker 1 (01:48:36):
That dude's the man. Yeah, we'll figure it out. You
know when people talk about skate parks there is it's
only a couple of years old. They like, just made
a skate park out by where I live in Bay
Village right. They're on Cahoon and Wolf. But for the
most part, I don't think that they get pretty strict
curfew there. I don't think that there's any problems with that.
(01:48:57):
A lot of the problems you're running into with kids
quote unquote now is e bikes. You talk to a
local cop and they're like rolling their eyes with all
the kids on the e bikes because they're like they're
super annoying. They just fly around the neighborhoods. But we're
also not going to be spending all day long giving
them tickets, right because depending on what community you're in,
their parents are going to flip their wigs. But all
(01:49:19):
you hear in my neighborhood flying through the neighborhood, I'm like,
a bicycle was the last bit of exercise you could
possibly get, and now you're on an e bike. Jac check.
You don't even have to pedal.
Speaker 8 (01:49:34):
He says Rocky. I occasionally work out at that Rocky
River rec Center. Definitely the elderly playing on the basketball
court for you with the pickleball, and they seem pretty crotchety.
Speaker 1 (01:49:46):
So well, that's affluent community. And what is David Lee
ross On like in a pickleball court? That's where I
was going for.
Speaker 8 (01:49:58):
It's out they're playing. Should have a David Lee Rothmonica
Cells match someday. Dave, Yeah, Dave, you just got that point. Congratulations.
Speaker 18 (01:50:12):
Whoa The Allen Cox Show on one hund.
Speaker 1 (01:50:20):
Called The Alan Cox Show.
Speaker 31 (01:50:22):
Alan Cox is the worst strive time personality I've ever heard.
Speaker 19 (01:50:30):
Two one six seven eight one double oh seven or
three four eighty one double oh seven.
Speaker 10 (01:50:53):
You know.
Speaker 1 (01:50:54):
We do a metal show here on the Buzzard most Saturdays.
Last week we got preempted by a late Cavs game,
but we're back this Saturday night ten o'clock. The show
is appropriately called two Hours to Midnight, little homage of
the Iron Maiden song. Me and Corey Ronick and Pat Butler.
We put our heads together and we kick out one
(01:51:15):
hundred and twenty minutes. Enough of a metal, a lot
of brand new stuff, local music throwbacks like Judas Priest,
a lot of fun. So if you're in the metal,
you should join us on Saturday night for two hours
to midnight. I was thinking of freewheel Burn and Missus
of the track that leads off Defenders of the Faith.
Were you a Judas Priest fan at all? I was
(01:51:36):
very much to love Judas Priest nineteen eighty five. I
think Defenders of the Faith came out was wedged in
between Screaming for Vengeance and Turbo, which is when they
went full on into eighties keyboards and stuff.
Speaker 8 (01:51:51):
I'm still blown away at how good he sounds at
this point in his life.
Speaker 1 (01:51:55):
Yes, I mean, just spot on too what he has
always been. They they, I will say, as much as
I've loved Judas Priest and as many times as I've
seen them. The first time I ever saw them, Iron
Maiden opened for them, Oh boy, I was eleven or twelve.
But I've seen them a lot and they're real hot
and cold. Boy, there are sometimes Rob Halford still sounds great,
(01:52:18):
but he's not moving around much. So going off years
ago they did it was still the Q. It was
Black Label Society and Judas Priest, and I think he
was like going off stage between every song, just take
it break now, just to point on some new leather duster,
what's weird? I was like, all right, it is a
(01:52:38):
lot of fun, but you know, and again I understand
it's not nineteen eighty five anymore. But anyway, I thought
of this song because I was reading about how AMC.
I can't believe nobody's done this. AMC is fast tracking.
If your part in the pun a soap opera for
lack of a better term about Nascar, it's called thunder Road.
(01:52:59):
This is basically gonna be Yellowstone for people who like NASCAR.
She wouldn't you assume at this point like that's over?
Speaker 19 (01:53:06):
Man?
Speaker 1 (01:53:06):
How many are six people watching NASCAR every week?
Speaker 6 (01:53:09):
Now?
Speaker 1 (01:53:09):
Isn't it still huge? I don't think, like my son
got me an F one, So I've never really paid
attention to NASCAR, But my son's way in to F one,
so I pay more attention to that. But even that,
I'm not like a die hard, right, But I thought
NASCAR was still massive.
Speaker 8 (01:53:24):
I mean, all I can tell you is they've shrunk
their footprint at every single.
Speaker 1 (01:53:29):
Race track by at half. Really, we used to go
my buddies and I would go to Dover every year
week parties are just a blast. Oh it's nuts, It's
it's so much fun. But they've gotten rid of all
of this seating at all of these tracks. The backstretch
at Daytona's gone. Why is that because no one was going? Really?
Speaker 8 (01:53:46):
Yeah, and now, I mean they took the stock car
out of stock car racing, is what everybody would say, right,
because every car was built the same and it was
all you know, they got rid of whatever that hillbilly
NASCAR stuff was that people fell in love with. And like,
if you go to tracks like Dover they'd put one
hundred thousand people in there. When we would go in
the early two thousands, it was awesome. Well then now
(01:54:09):
all of that stuff is covered up.
Speaker 1 (01:54:10):
I just remember the area around Daytona Speedway being super janky.
Y oh yeah, it was like Ohio, Like the beach
was like tweakers and needles in the sand. And you know,
we had up a wedding in Orlando years ago and
we drove to Daytona just to kind of dick around
and and writ next door it was the speedway.
Speaker 8 (01:54:29):
I was like, oh my god, I think they've just
had to continue to find new ways to invent themselves.
It was reinvent themselves, I guess because NASCAR was always
like if you won, it was x number of points,
if you you want to start on a pole position,
be the fastest car during qualifying.
Speaker 1 (01:54:43):
It like changed everything. But I was going to say,
it's not like people don't care about auto racing anymore.
So where did those people go? They went to Afuan
or they went to I think a lot of people
stopped watching it just all together.
Speaker 8 (01:54:53):
I know a lot of people stopped watching it all
together because everything became there's like I mean, there's a
living in trailers. Well, for sure, A lot of those
are the ones that never gave up on it. Maybe,
but I mean they gave everything changed. There were heat races,
there were you know, qualifying races for qualifying time.
Speaker 1 (01:55:10):
It was just it was playoffs. It all became very,
very weird for NASCAR. So I don't know. I mean,
maybe maybe it's back to big time levels. But I
couldn't name a driver. I don't think. Okay, chase something
last and I I stopped, I would go, I would go.
(01:55:31):
I remember Bubba Wallace because he was like the black
guy in NASCAR, and he's like, yeah, they're hanging nooses
from my garage. I remember that the Wallace family, Rusty Wallace,
and that was his crew. That was his family.
Speaker 10 (01:55:44):
You know.
Speaker 1 (01:55:44):
So I don't I don't know current NASCAR at all.
It's been twenty years since I've watched a race. Yeah,
I knew the same names everybody else knew. Jeff Gordon
and Dale Earn Harden. Those are the only names I knew.
But anyway, AMC has a greenlit basically yellowstone for car racing.
(01:56:08):
It's called thunder Road. The High Octane World of Nascar.
Rob Yeah, well, maybe this is a way to keep
their profile up as a show like this maybe or
attract another audience, you know, I know, I mean Days
of thunderback in the day, and that was a huge
movie with Tom Cruise. That's again, that was like the
peak of Wow, not the peak, but the NASCAR was
(01:56:30):
huge then. I mean Dale Earnhardt was a you know,
all of those drivers were still around. I know, it's
completely different, but when I was getting well, I had
my car in a couple of weeks ago because there
was a recall something and they needed to tire change something.
So I'm sitting there in the lobby waiting for them
to get done and top Gear was on, like the OGBBC.
(01:56:52):
Top Gear's great and I'd never seen it before. It
was very entertaining, very very funny show. Alice Cooper was
the guest. It just so happened. Yeah, No, very entertaining.
I don't think that's on anymore though, right, No, those dudes,
but always watching those dudes mess with each other. That's
it was so funny because they were all just friends
who loved cars. Yeah, and I know that was a
huge show, but I had just never seen it before.
But yeah, it was very entertaining. So anyway, this but
(01:57:14):
again I was reading this article. It was in Deadline
or something. I was like, how have they never done this?
They've never done a Yellowstone for NASCAR. But it's coming
to AMC called thunder Road. You know, NASCAR started technically
during Prohibition when bootleggers, right, they were like, we need tiny,
tiny cars to get this stuff around, and they can.
(01:57:37):
They could outrun the cops, right, isn't that how NASCAR started?
Like Prohibition, Like they had to come up with cars
they could outrun the cops. They were trying to chase
them down. I'm a bootlegger. That's exactly how it started.
Allan has an Ai song called duck Off Alan cosmiths, all.
Speaker 2 (01:57:56):
Right, so's in the corner of the dog solid devil,
(01:58:21):
let it.
Speaker 10 (01:58:21):
Be no.
Speaker 2 (01:58:24):
But he's where sand days and the contact ones.
Speaker 1 (01:58:30):
Oh I see. So they're just throwing everything out everything,
all right, thank you, Luke duck Off. So NASCAR no
longer releases official attendance figures. That's a first sign that
things aren't great. So there's no exact average. Are there
too many? Do they just hit critical mass? Like there
are there too many races and too few people, or
(01:58:51):
this is a fifteen hundred races a year.
Speaker 8 (01:58:54):
Well, no, so NASCAR is not just you're thinking of
like the Cup Series. That's what the big thing is
to be describe it. Yeah, because NASCAR is a sanctioning body.
It's National Association of Stock Car Racing, I think is
what that stands for.
Speaker 1 (01:59:10):
That's it and stock car racing A yeah, so that's
the governing body.
Speaker 8 (01:59:18):
So that could be tracks Here are NASCAR sanctioned tracks, right,
so they follow the NASCAR rules.
Speaker 1 (01:59:24):
But when you say NASCAR, people think of that Cup Series.
That's the top.
Speaker 8 (01:59:27):
You know where Dale Earnhart and those guys drove. That's
what what I'm looking at. And they're saying they're down
from the average of over one hundred thousand people in
the early two thousands where it was at its peak,
and they're guessing around forty to sixty thousand per event now,
So I mean, that's still a good crowd, but it's
(01:59:49):
half of what it was twenty years ago.
Speaker 1 (01:59:51):
See one person text me, NASCAR is still huge. Somebody
text me, NASCAR is pretty much done. I think again,
it's relative. If you're gonna sell sixty thousand tickets to
something people still care, clearly, but they got rid of
like there were two races in New Hampshire. They're down
to one. Yeah, you know, it's that type of stuff.
It's just shrunk hmm. All right, well that show is
(02:00:16):
coming if you're a big fan. I was reading about
how the I don't know how it came up. Maybe
it was one of these entertainment magazines or something, but
the pope's favorite movies. Oh yes, oh, I know what
it was. He had, remember, and he had all the comedians.
Was it the last pope? I think it was the
(02:00:38):
last pope that had all the comedians out, and it
was a real you know who got invited who did
and it was like Chris Rock and side Feld when
it was Pope who was a last guy, Francis. Pope
Francis I think, had a bunch of comedians out and
Pope Leo had He's welcoming thirty Hollywood stars to the
(02:00:58):
Vatican to deepen the dialogue with the world of cinema
rob and so they were like, hey, what are your
favorite movies? And I was hoping there'd be like a
real wild pitch in there, and maybe there is. It's
got any the blues Brothers. No, it's not The Blues.
Speaker 8 (02:01:16):
That's not his favorite movie when there's something seriously wrong
with the whole thing. Yeah, I don't understand how that's possible.
Speaker 6 (02:01:21):
He rap.
Speaker 1 (02:01:22):
Yeah, hey, Pope, No, you're what did I call you earlier?
You're excellent?
Speaker 4 (02:01:29):
You don't have to do it.
Speaker 1 (02:01:30):
I like what you call me, Pope. He pope. What
do you say, Pope? Did you see I did?
Speaker 3 (02:01:36):
Yeah?
Speaker 1 (02:01:37):
So, how is Blues Brothers not number one for a
guy from Chicago? Is that movie?
Speaker 4 (02:01:41):
Saks? I'll say it.
Speaker 1 (02:01:44):
No, it does not. I mean, with all due respect,
your holiness thinks like it. No, please, Pope, Pope.
Speaker 7 (02:01:51):
Stinks like an al's beef sitting the winning to sell
the front room.
Speaker 1 (02:01:56):
I'll respectfully disagree with you, Pope.
Speaker 4 (02:01:58):
That's fine. Subjective.
Speaker 1 (02:02:00):
So what is your favorite movie?
Speaker 4 (02:02:03):
It's a Wonderful Life, remember this one.
Speaker 7 (02:02:06):
That's so on the nose Zeus Pedals Wrap George Bailey. Yeah,
you know why because there's an angel in it?
Speaker 1 (02:02:15):
Yeah all right, But there's a lot of movies. So
you're like, Bruce Almighty, is that on your list too?
Speaker 4 (02:02:18):
It's not on my list, but it's pretty god damn
good movie.
Speaker 1 (02:02:23):
What about Bruce almighty two? Did you enjoy that one?
Speaker 7 (02:02:26):
I don't remember that one about a movie called remember
a movie called Heaven?
Speaker 4 (02:02:31):
Can wait?
Speaker 2 (02:02:31):
Rap?
Speaker 1 (02:02:32):
Yeah?
Speaker 29 (02:02:32):
Or baby?
Speaker 4 (02:02:33):
Remember that one?
Speaker 1 (02:02:34):
Is that on your list?
Speaker 4 (02:02:35):
It's not on my list. I don't want anybody waiting
for Heaven. I want them up here.
Speaker 1 (02:02:40):
Well I'm not up here, but well, don't you actually
have to wait?
Speaker 4 (02:02:43):
It's passable, but.
Speaker 1 (02:02:44):
We all have to wait to get there, don't we.
You don't have to wait.
Speaker 4 (02:02:47):
It's a made up place.
Speaker 1 (02:02:48):
Rap.
Speaker 4 (02:02:49):
I'm not supposed to say that publicly, but of course
all made up. So there's no such place as heaven.
Speaker 1 (02:02:53):
Good Lord, don't.
Speaker 4 (02:02:54):
Worry about that. Sound of music is on my list?
Speaker 19 (02:02:56):
Rap?
Speaker 4 (02:02:57):
Sound of music?
Speaker 1 (02:02:59):
I like that ship? That's is it the Nazis?
Speaker 19 (02:03:02):
That?
Speaker 1 (02:03:03):
Does that play into your No, it's a not Nazi version.
I'm just I'm just saying I was trying to remember
which movie that one?
Speaker 4 (02:03:11):
Nasty?
Speaker 10 (02:03:11):
Yeah?
Speaker 4 (02:03:11):
How do you solve a problem like Marie?
Speaker 7 (02:03:14):
Yeah?
Speaker 1 (02:03:14):
That one?
Speaker 4 (02:03:16):
Life is.
Speaker 1 (02:03:18):
Again? Please?
Speaker 4 (02:03:19):
How do you sound the problem like Mari?
Speaker 30 (02:03:21):
Yeah?
Speaker 7 (02:03:25):
I have noticed that a couple of people pointed out
that there are two Nazi movies on my list, Rapp, what's.
Speaker 1 (02:03:32):
The other one Life is Beautiful.
Speaker 7 (02:03:35):
Yeah, and then the movie called Ordinary People. I think
this because that was shot.
Speaker 4 (02:03:42):
And in Chicago.
Speaker 8 (02:03:43):
Well that's Robert Redford, right, Rabbert, the Late Rabbert. Yeah yeah, yeah, yeah, okay,
all right, that one.
Speaker 19 (02:03:48):
I know.
Speaker 4 (02:03:48):
I told him Pee Wee's Big Top, but they wanted
nothing to do with it.
Speaker 8 (02:03:51):
I've never seen uh uh the sound of Music, so
I can't. I can't say anything to that one, but
I it's a wonderful life, super perfectly fine movie.
Speaker 1 (02:04:00):
But it's like it's once a year, you watch it
at Christmas. I can't tell them my real favorite movies, rap,
I gotta get in this crap. What's your favorite, my
real favorite, your real favorite movie?
Speaker 4 (02:04:11):
Behind the Green Door? Remember that one, Marilyn Chambers Behind
the Green Door? Right, you wanted me to say it?
Speaker 1 (02:04:17):
I said it, all right, all right?
Speaker 4 (02:04:19):
Talk about how Italian Beef rat?
Speaker 1 (02:04:21):
Yeah? Yeah, But you say no to Blues Brothers?
Speaker 10 (02:04:24):
Nope?
Speaker 1 (02:04:25):
What about Dumb and Dumber? That's my favorite comedy?
Speaker 4 (02:04:29):
Yes, it's all right.
Speaker 1 (02:04:30):
You cool with the Godfather?
Speaker 8 (02:04:31):
Yeah, of course, all right, So that's on the list, right,
It's got gad in it, rap, I have to be
cool with I want true there's also a lot of
bad things that happen in that movie, so it's you know,
I just want to make sure that's okay with the Pope.
Speaker 1 (02:04:44):
Pope, Hey, I used.
Speaker 4 (02:04:47):
Somebody to clarify it.
Speaker 1 (02:04:48):
Rob, I'll not do feel it right. I appreciate it. Yeah,
enjoy those those hot dogs. Oh boy, h what an
exciting exchange. He's having Kate Blanchett out to the Vatican.
(02:05:11):
Chris Pine, Alison Bree, Dave Franco, that's her husband, of course,
some lame Spike Lee, George Miller, Gus Van Sant, those
are all directors. George Miller's the guy that did The
Road Warrior and Mad Max and the Tom Hardy one
Fury Road. Did I say Vigo Mortensen you did? Not
(02:05:35):
a lot of people know him from the Lord of
the Rings movies. My favorite Vigo Mortensen is a David
Cronenberg movie, actually two movies. He did a Cronenberg movie
based on a graphic novel called The History of Violence,
which is great, and then he did another movie called
Eastern Promises, where he's like an enforcer for the Russian
Mab Mab. Two great Vigo movies for the Russian Mab.
(02:05:59):
Not the guy on the wall from Ghostbusters. Alan talking
about Nascar, What about the movie six Pack with Kenny Rodgers?
Jesus remember that? No, he was like oversea and I
think a group of kids like Diane Lane was a
teenager in it. And you know, devotion accuracy of Bubba
and Rusty Wallace not related. I thought that they were.
(02:06:20):
I don't know anything, but I mean, is Rusty Wallace
a black guy?
Speaker 19 (02:06:23):
No?
Speaker 1 (02:06:24):
But I.
Speaker 8 (02:06:26):
Don't think Bubba is all black. Oh, I think he's
part of a f I could have sworn he was
part of that family.
Speaker 1 (02:06:35):
Alan, what's happening is that the big tracks are getting
prime dates and the smaller tracks are struggling, and it
kills their attendants and they can't make it up with
other events. Yeah, but that would that che well, I
was gonna say. That would imply to me that the
that the available audience is shrinking and that's why they
have to make those kinds of decisions. But Allen, what
(02:06:57):
about the Woppie Goldberg. I assume you mean Whoopy if
I do like Whoppie gold Yeah, which one sister act? Yeah?
I like sister act. I never saw a sister act.
But take your word for it. Hey, what's up, guys?
Speaker 15 (02:07:15):
I live out in Mentor, and Mentor has converted every
goddamn tennis court into a stupid pickleball court. There's nowhere
to play tennis anymore. And if you go there at night,
there are hundreds of teenagers. It's like the new teenager
hangout spot. It's so bizarre. They need to find something
(02:07:36):
else to do. Take it easy, guess what's I mean?
Speaker 19 (02:07:39):
Like?
Speaker 1 (02:07:39):
Teenagers are looking for places to hang out. So if
there's a new court, they don't care that it's pickleball,
Let's just go and waste our time. Let's just go.
We're trying to go somewhere. We need a place. What
good is having an e bike if you have nowhere
to ride it? And if it's pickleball court, is there
and it's brand new, and again they cut the nets
(02:08:00):
down from the hoops. Nobody's playing basketball anymore. So Alan
could Rob expound on his love for Bruce Almighty too?
Wasn't that Evan Almighty?
Speaker 19 (02:08:12):
It was?
Speaker 1 (02:08:12):
Yeah, that was the Steve Correll vehicle. Hey, I don't
have any love for it. I was just trying to
see if Pope had anything to say about it.
Speaker 10 (02:08:18):
Ah.
Speaker 8 (02:08:19):
Hey, Pope, Hey, Pope, Yeah, I stand corrected. I always
assumed that he was part of the Rusty and whatever.
His brother's name is Wallace clan, but he is not.
Bubba Wallace is not of that same family.
Speaker 1 (02:08:34):
So much I have to I have to think that
Bubba Wallace is a part of a family with people
of the same last name. Yes see, he didn't just
pass here from some membrane from another dimension and pick
a last name. No, yeah, yeah, Okay. I don't know
(02:08:55):
anything about NASCAR, but over the years, I've had friends
who have gone to those just for kind of shrimps
and giggles of the infield parties, and they're like, it's
so fun. It was great. We would go. There's nothing
about it that doesn't look fun. But then you got
to watch auto racing and that becomes very secondary to
what you're doing. I mean, you tickets to two races.
Speaker 8 (02:09:17):
You know, there's the Bush it was the whatever it's
called the Bush Series, I don't know what it is now,
and then the Winston Cup.
Speaker 1 (02:09:22):
I don't know what that is now.
Speaker 8 (02:09:24):
Well, we would go to those every weekend or excuse me,
once a year. You go to those two races. The
races are what four hours long or something. You just
be hammered the entire the entire weekend ten you know,
seven guys just crushing beers for four days.
Speaker 1 (02:09:39):
Wow, it was a blast. Not so much fun. Well
there you go. Yeah, I've never gone.
Speaker 8 (02:09:45):
And F one's great. I could just never afford to
go to an F one race because that stuff. And
now that's all like we joke about me living the
high life profile and all that stuff, but joke.
Speaker 1 (02:09:56):
Well, listen, I'm the F one guy. The hell's going on?
Gotta have one money.
Speaker 8 (02:10:01):
Nobody's getting to those I've never been, But I mean
you can get tickets, right, But if you want to
do any of the stuff that you see on television
when you're watching those races, oh I want to get
close to the cars, Yeah, you're You've got bet to
add a couple of zeros to what you make.
Speaker 1 (02:10:13):
Do you like the sound of that Bush series? Though?
I have baby like, uh take it off? H oh
like the beer?
Speaker 18 (02:10:24):
The Ellen cock Show on one hundred seven Best way
to resist the machines. Dumb down your smartphone by listening
to this crap. He won't even remember how.
Speaker 1 (02:10:41):
To tell time.
Speaker 19 (02:10:42):
The cock Show on one hundred point seven w MM.
Speaker 1 (02:11:11):
I forgot Ween did a song called stroker Ace back
in the day, the Burt Reynolds Nascar movie. Remember stroker Ace, yep.
But when somebody said six pack earlier, I was thinking
stroker Ace because that was post Smokey and the Bandit.
So I think they were just gonna keep going down
that road with Burt Reynolds is a big deal and
(02:11:31):
they were like, oh, this is gonna blow the doors
off the joint if you're pardon the punt. And it
flopped hard, boy, just post Cannonball run post Cannonball. Yeah,
they went to that well won too many times. It
was actually a book that they turned into a movie
with about a NASCAR driver, you know, and it was
peak Burt Reynolds and the Ween song from probably twenty
five thirty years ago. It is just a an homage
(02:11:53):
to that character, I guess. But yeah, flopped hard. They
called it the must miss movie of the imagine that, Hey,
Burt Reynold, Lonnie Anderson, right, she was a lead. I
think that was another movie I remember from the early
days of like HBO and now cult favorites, you know,
things people love, Yeah, but do they I mean, I
(02:12:14):
bet if we watch Stroker Race now we go, oh yeah,
it's still stinks. I bet you there's people that just
stroke to Stroker Race.
Speaker 30 (02:12:21):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (02:12:23):
Well, because all those movies back then were directed. You know,
everybody made a big deal about how the John Wick
movies were so good because the director was a stuntman.
A guy named Chad Selsky, I think did the first
couple of John Wick movies. And that's what they were
doing back on the day with these. The stuntman named
Hel Needham was a director, yep, and so he would
do all those Burt Reynolds racing movies.
Speaker 8 (02:12:44):
And you know, oh Jesus four point nine on IMDb
and nineteen percent on Rotten Tomatoes. Yeah, it flopped out
art World's favorite no.
Speaker 1 (02:12:54):
But the guys in Ween got a great song out
of it on that White Pepper record. And Stroker A
That's what I was thinking of when somebody said six pack,
I know that was a Kenny. I was thinking, I
put them together. Ethan, our buddy there in Rochester, New York. Allan,
It's a Wonderful Life might be the Pope's favorite movie,
(02:13:14):
but it's based off Seneca Falls, New York, which is
a town known for a dump.
Speaker 8 (02:13:20):
It literally smells like hot garbage. But people go there
to visit, man, just to see all that stuff.
Speaker 1 (02:13:25):
Yeah, imagine that your tourist destination is a town that
is a dump. Literally. We drove through it when we
went to Thanksgiving last years. Oh God for you. He
told your darter did his say, Oh, he just mentioned
(02:13:45):
it that it was when you fly into Newark and
you can smell it from like five thousand feet. You know,
Alan teenagers can't win. People bitch when they spend all
day inside on their phones and play an Xbox, and
then they bitch when they're outside on the pickleball courts.
It's a good take, You're right. I do, for the
(02:14:06):
most part, really try to be on the side of
the kids, because like I was not a I was
not a typical kid, you know, the joke with me
with my family and people who knew, you know, I
was like a forty year old fifth grader, and so
it's why I devoted my adult life to being a
juvenile and trying to get paid for it. So, you know,
(02:14:29):
I kind of went the other way. But kids don't
have it, I mean, everybody, because it's the easiest group
to crap on. You know, everybody looks behind them. You know,
in another generation, Eh, damn, kids, we've all done it.
We all were the kid adult. Every every kid does it.
(02:14:51):
But again, I wasn't a kid that was like getting
into trouble well in school because I was trying to
make everybody laugh. That's when I would get into trouble.
But I wasn't like a kid that was like I
wasn't a rule breaker, and so I would look at
peers of mind that we're doing that with like great
(02:15:11):
affection because I was like, man, that looks fun, that
looks fun that I'm doing all this stuff they're not
supposed to do. But I was always terrified getting in
trouble because to me, that meant getting spanked, getting you
know whatever. So I was always trying to avoid getting
into trouble, even as a grown man, even professionally. That's
(02:15:34):
always been that dichotomy in my brain, is is wanting
to get directly into people's faces, but at the same
time being like, I don't want to be a bother.
You know, it's hard to do that in this business.
I wish I could be like I don't want to
get any I mean I don't want to, you know,
just trying to make feel laugh. I don't want to
get in trouble. See, I wish I could be like that.
(02:15:55):
I still I've been doing this. I've been in this
line of work for thirty plus years. Right, if anybody
could walk around this place swinging it around, I'm one
of those people, right for me and Rover probably now
neither of us do. But to this day, when somebody
(02:16:17):
from management walks in the room, I puck her up. Really.
Now that's partly because of the state of the business
in twenty twenty five, but I've been that way the
whole way through because I'm like, here we go. Yeah,
because there's a part of me from when I was
a little kid the worst thing, the worst thing for
me was to get into trouble because it meant corporal punishment.
(02:16:38):
That's how I was raised.
Speaker 3 (02:16:39):
Yeah.
Speaker 8 (02:16:39):
The best thing that ever happened was I got fired.
And then as soon as I got fired, by the
first tired, Yeah, I was never afraid of it anymore.
So I was like, you know what, man, I'll figure
it out. Yeah, And I'm sure a lot.
Speaker 1 (02:16:50):
A lot easier when you're like a single dude with no,
you know, oh, no question. You only are responsible for yourself.
That's true of any business though. But yeah, but to day,
in my brain, I'm like, well, I don't want to
get in trouble, and I'm the one over here calling
our bosses idiots every two seconds. So yeah, you know
what that that's fine. That's the yin and the yang.
(02:17:12):
You know. If I get worked up into a lather,
oh for sure. Yeah, but they off.
Speaker 8 (02:17:16):
I mean, listen, in all fairness that they know, just
stay out of the way, leave us alone. That's pretty
much what works. Well.
Speaker 1 (02:17:22):
If you don't want your underlings to mock, you, don't
get into management. I've never been a program director, right,
I've been a music I've been an assistant music director
over the course of my career. Back when we used
to have those, I was a promotions director. I was
an assistant program director. I was an APD because back
(02:17:43):
in the day, that's how you made more money. Yeah, hey,
you want to be APD. Yeah, sure, all right, you'll
help me out, will talk to the labels or whatever,
and you'll make five grand more years. Yeah sure, yeah
cool right, yeah, but yeah, and I and I.
Speaker 8 (02:17:58):
Walked backwards back into being on the air, you know
what I mean, Like, this wasn't my plan, but it was.
It's I'm thankful that it happened the way that it
did too, because i mean, look, man, like now, I
can say anything I want to anybody for the most part,
and I'll.
Speaker 1 (02:18:16):
Just go it's just the show.
Speaker 9 (02:18:18):
I'm just.
Speaker 8 (02:18:21):
Come on, I'm just I don't think you're a complete
imbecile and a waste of space like I said on
the show. No, it's all parody. I'm just it's you know,
it's the show. Come on, that's right. He Rob's doing
that show stuff again. Yeah, you have both of those
hats on. I only have one hat.
Speaker 1 (02:18:41):
It's great.
Speaker 8 (02:18:42):
I love it for you sit down in those meetings
with those guys and he's like, man, nemember that time
you called me a complete moron last week and like, yeah,
the characters just goofing around.
Speaker 1 (02:18:55):
I don't think you're a moron. And my fingers crossed.
That was our n word, Anthony. That's right, I had
had off. Yeah, I got money for you here in
a couple of minutes, a lass keyword of the day
(02:19:15):
from the Buzzard bookie. I get periodic emails from a
guy named Elliott. He's the guy who sends me the
compendium of words. Oh, I've forced him to google. And
he has not chastised me, but as somebody who's taken
it upon himself to chronicle these. He's like, hey, I'm
(02:19:37):
not I haven't gotten as many recently as I thought
I might. And he's like, because he sent me one
in May, he sent me one in August, and he
just sent me one that has four words on it.
Speaker 3 (02:19:53):
Just four.
Speaker 1 (02:19:54):
Now that has to be a combination of you know,
he can't listen every second of every show. Perspicacious, coterie, intoning, ingenue, semiotic.
He's like, yeah, five. Sorry, he goes, these are the
only new words, very scarce. And then when he sent
me in August, he goes, it might not be getting.
(02:20:16):
I don't think I knew what one of those words
meant that you said of the five. Oh, what was
the first one? Perspecasius? Yeah? Absolutely no, oh not even
I mean it's not a common word, but perspicacious. Yeah.
Does it have anything to do with perspiration? No, Okay, no,
it's like somebody who has like somebody who has a
(02:20:37):
particular insight on something. Okay, all right, onto the next one.
The other one was Coterie Coderie. Yeah CODERI is that
just uh working with code in some way? Yeah a Coteri. Okay,
so not co A t so not Jackets. No, no,
I'm out no idea like people like oh my coat
(02:21:00):
of friends. Right, you're all kind of of the same
mind and you have okay group. Again, I don't know
the context of which I yeah, you're a group of friends.
I talk how I talk, I know. Yeah, that's what
I love about you. I write. I just need some help,
that's all, you know. But again I don't recall. These
are context free, right, That's why it sounds hella douche.
Speaker 8 (02:21:24):
And it's so much fun because then I sound even
more dumb than I normally am.
Speaker 1 (02:21:30):
Well, let me read off the ones that he sent
me the last time through. There was what did you
the other ones aren't? What were they?
Speaker 10 (02:21:38):
Other?
Speaker 1 (02:21:38):
Three?
Speaker 18 (02:21:39):
Oh?
Speaker 1 (02:21:39):
Intoning, ingenue, semionic you got a meaning for those real quick?
Speaker 9 (02:21:43):
Well?
Speaker 1 (02:21:43):
You know what he was in toning, you know, like
Monroe Tonight in toning, right in tone. So that's just
you know, ingenue, you know what that is. She was
an author, right some'uh she no, No, you're thinking of
Maya Angelo. Oh, yeah, the same thing. No, when they
(02:22:06):
talk about like, oh, the young ingenue in the film, right,
it's like a it's like a sweet innocent character in
a in a film, they ingenue. I don't know if
there's a male con I don't think there's such a
thing as a male ingenue. And then semiotic is what
(02:22:26):
didn't a listener throw that in? Or did I throw
it in? Semiotic? Semiotic? I'm not sure that's a language term. Okay,
part of language anyway. Yeah, So that's so the newest
email he sent me. He had a big long list
last time. Parapet kruger an hoy poloy penitent copra faga
(02:22:51):
that's somebody eats poop coprah faga. Yeah, great death metal
band playing on Saturday night. As a matter of fact,
and to Arson Midnight, it's the opposite of a copamaja, yes,
maja and faga. That's right. Pablum maliffluis effluvium, bedraggled costumonger,
pardon cost monger. I was talking about, Oh you know,
(02:23:14):
you don't. There aren't a lot of mongers anymore, right, fishmongers.
I was doing a manger bit because I'm hilarious.
Speaker 7 (02:23:23):
Rob.
Speaker 1 (02:23:24):
Oh, if you can't get people to fall down laughing
with a Manger bit, I don't know what to tell
you righter. Costmonger was like the guy with selling the
vegetables on the car. Hey, you know, okay, alright, fancy
word for a guy selling produce. But the point that
(02:23:45):
I was making at the time, okay, good now, the
point I was making at the time is it one
of the more popular current mongers is hate and that's unfortunate.
Some people really seem to be leaning in on that.
So anyway, he sent me, he has sent me some
(02:24:05):
email and the last one only had five words, So
I don't know that that's his passive aggressive way of
letting me know that he needs to step it up.
But I can't force these things, you know what I mean,
They're not thought out ahead of time. I just talk
how I talk. We're in the last month of the
of the year for shows. You better step it up.
I guess you're right. The last live show of the
(02:24:26):
year is going to be the sixteenth of December, which
will mark rob December sixteenth will be my sixteenth anniversary
at WMMS. Nice. How do you like them? Apple? I
gotta buy another bottle of ove. Next one, I'll bring it.
We've set the bar now. Now I gotta good pun
(02:24:51):
by the way, Congratulations to one Joseph Walsh esquire who's
loved around northeast Ohio, of course because he's a Ken
State grand But his hometown is Wichita, Kansas. I heard
from one of our bureau chiefs in Wichita, Kansas. He goes, hey,
I don't know if you saw this. Joe Walsh has
gotten his own street in Wichita, Kansas. Now his connection
(02:25:15):
to Ohio goes beyond Kent State. I think as a
young man he was born in Wichita, but I think
when his parents got divorced or something, he he was
in Columbus. So he spent a lot of his younger
years in Ohio. And James was there, right, James Gang,
I believe so, yeah, But I couldn't remember if they
came from out of Kent State or not. But Joe
(02:25:36):
Walsh was his stepfather's name. His father Robert Fiddler. He
could have just as easily been Joe Fiddler.
Speaker 8 (02:25:45):
Then he would have had to have played the fiddle,
which would have been much different thing.
Speaker 1 (02:25:50):
But well, you got to carry your own Hickory Stump
with you everywhere seems formed in Cleveland. There you go.
I didn't know that. Yeah, but his hometown. I mean, listen,
they're looking for whatever they can do to pump, to
get Wichita in the news. But his father was a
pilot in the Air Force who died in a mid
(02:26:11):
air collision during maneuvers over Okinawa. That in that you
hit another plane, that's how you die, fall from the sky,
probably on fire. Anyway, took his stepfather's name. Walsh moved
to Ohio, and I don't know that he graduated from
Kent State. I think he's associated with that school because
(02:26:31):
he was there for a bit. But I think I
think the music thing took off before he was out
of school. But Joe Walsh getting his own street in Wichita, Kansas. Now,
if you are unfamiliar with the layout of Wichita, Kansas,
join the club. But they had that Vets Aid concert.
(02:26:52):
Remember they do vet states like farm a bits for
vets because yesterday was Veteran's Day. Joe Walsh very very
involved in that kind of stuff. Is that what they
did when the food fighters in him played Columbus a
couple of years ago, wasn't that the big vets Age show.
It was like nine inch Nails all the Ohio people.
So it was like Dave Grohl from Warren and nine
Inch Nails. I think it was the Betside.
Speaker 3 (02:27:12):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (02:27:13):
Anyway, this year's is taking place in Wichita, Kansas, his hometown.
He is of course in the Rock and Roll Hall
of Fame. He's seventy seven. Joe waltsh is almost eighty.
So if you know where the Intrust Bank Arena is
there in Wichita, that's where the concerts being held and Friday,
(02:27:34):
he will be honored with a memorial street right out now,
Memorial Ceremonial Street right outside the arena there the intersection
of English and Saint Francis Avenues. Rob I like the
last line of the article, it is not known if
he will attend. It is there with the mayor. Yeah, hi, everybody.
Speaker 4 (02:27:57):
We were hoping that Joe Walsh would join us today's.
We're naming this dumb street after him, but he has
not yet. We haven't heard back from his people.
Speaker 1 (02:28:06):
We're still waiting. Fingers crossed mine.
Speaker 4 (02:28:09):
He shows up and maybe he got his time zones
screwed up.
Speaker 1 (02:28:12):
We are Central Time. But then we remembered where Wichita, Kansas. Instead.
There's no way in hell he's showing up. Yeah, but
the mayor is hot. That's okay. This is the mayor
of Wichita, Kansas. Lily Woo whoo. He's like forty one
years old. Look at her? Whoa Lily? What wow? Lily?
Speaker 13 (02:28:33):
What wo Lily?
Speaker 1 (02:28:35):
What wow? Lily Woo. How about that former television news
anchor who was elected. Well, there's your answer. There ain't
no hotties and baddies running for Wichita mayor. She's uh, hey,
you know my face. I was on television. She's purty
very party, the one hundred third mayor of Wichita, Kansas.
(02:28:58):
She's forty one born in Juma to Chinese immigrant parents,
went to Wichita East High School and got a bachelor's
degree from Wichita State the masters from the University of
Hong Kong. How about that she was like a young
(02:29:19):
Republican or something. I'll even look past that, and you
got to these days you're like, but okay, m anyway,
congratulations to Joseph Walsh forgetting that street. I hope he
does show up. I mean it's just a day before
the concert. He could show up a day early. I
(02:29:40):
know a lot of people like to come in day
of He seems like the kind of guy that wouldn't
want to leave them hanging. He seems like the kind
of guy.
Speaker 19 (02:29:48):
I want.
Speaker 1 (02:29:50):
I don't want that either, I guess.
Speaker 8 (02:29:53):
I guess I do now, I guess i' didn't want it.
Speaker 1 (02:30:00):
Then I want it now, No, I didn't want it.
Then that's pilot error on my part. That happens. Ugh,
that's what they get from making fun of not making fun.
But you know that's what I get for ogling the
mayor of a major American city. Woo, can you call?
You know, what's her name? Lily?
Speaker 19 (02:30:20):
What?
Speaker 4 (02:30:22):
Lily?
Speaker 6 (02:30:22):
What?
Speaker 1 (02:30:22):
Whoa Lily? Wichita is a major American city, right, ish?
I think I don't? Okay?
Speaker 6 (02:30:31):
Is I mean?
Speaker 1 (02:30:32):
We know it right? It's the biggest city in Kansas.
I don't think Kansas City, Kansas is bigger. Four hundred
thousand people in metro Wichita. I'd say that that's a
that's a big city. Yeah, Oh, Kansas City, Kansas is bigger.
Or is that Kansas City, Missouri? Well, I'll try in
the edge. So they have that's Kansas City, Missouri and
Kansas They lump them all together. But if you just
(02:30:54):
took the Kansas side, Topeka only as one hundred and
twenty five thousand, So Wichita is like four times as
big as Topeka. Whichita I didn't know that the fiftieth
largest city in the United States and they're mayor, so
it's big four is that dime? Yeah, Lily, whoa Lily
woo whoa like this show who woo.
Speaker 27 (02:31:20):

Speaker 1 (02:31:44):
The Allen Cox Show.
Speaker 13 (02:31:45):
I've been listening to that Horses of yours for months,
and you can take that strap and blow it out
your ass, and for good.
Speaker 4 (02:31:53):
Measure, called the Allan Cox Show.
Speaker 19 (02:31:56):
Two six seven eight one double o seven or three
four one seven.
Speaker 1 (02:32:21):
Hey, your cavaliers are set to take the floor one
more time in Miami. Okay, carravenge. They got beaten over
time the other night. It was a real barn burner.
Speaker 19 (02:32:32):
Boy.
Speaker 1 (02:32:32):
Between that Donovan Mitchell three pointer, we played it earlier yep,
with four seconds left to the Heat in overtime, winning
with the Andrew Wiggan Alley buzzer beater. The hell of
a game, Ultimate sack Tap Monday Night. So tonight seven
(02:32:53):
point thirty is your tip off. They're in Miami against
the Heat seven o'clock pregame here ONMMS and you can
also listen on the iHeartRadio app. And then the Cavs
come home for ten days or so, playing six games
here at home up until Thanksgiving week where they'll go
(02:33:16):
to Toronto to play the Raptors. I'll be in Toronto
mid December when we go on our end of year
a break, be headed off to Toronto. See if I
can find some somebody's got to have Blue Jays World
Series merch that hasn't been sent to South sud Dan yet.
See if I can pay top dollar for that. Get
(02:33:38):
some runner up merch. Yeah, something like that. Ellen David
Lee Roth's favorite type of tang clan. Yes, mine too,
That is the best kind of tang clan.
Speaker 3 (02:33:57):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (02:34:01):
Well, I feel like that guy's list is made up.
I listen every single day, and the only word I
remember from that list CODERI I'm like, yeah, you could
put anything in there and I would remember maybe two
of them. So you know, it's it's stream of consciousness
around here. Leslie wants to know if you know what
can tankeri is means when she refers to you as
(02:34:22):
the cantankeris clit rattler. Yes, I do know what tanker is.
I figured that you did. Thank you just passing along
her message. The cantankeros clit Rattler sounds like one of
those old Marvel comic books, you know how, like the
superhero always had an adjective, right, the Spectacular Spider Man,
the Incredible Hulk, Yes, the the uh what do they
(02:34:46):
call Wolverine? That the you know what I mean? Though,
they always had an adjective before it, right, the Amazing
Spider Man, The Amazing Spider Man's right. Marvel was big
on that. The fantastic I forget what the rest of us,
but it was a boy. There were four people there
that was pretty fantastic. Leslie's the cantanker is clip Red.
(02:35:09):
What a day? It called me old earlier and stupid. Now, Yeah,
she's just on a roll. I'll tell you what, man.
Speaker 6 (02:35:15):
Wow.
Speaker 1 (02:35:16):
When she puts her foot to the floor. She hadn't
let up. It's a lot.
Speaker 8 (02:35:22):
Yeah, So he's trying to get me into one of
those little bathing suits, tells me I got to live
my real life by wearing one of those.
Speaker 1 (02:35:30):
Those little things you wear. Yeah, I wear my limes,
your lives when I'm overseas, you know, everybody to be.
Speaker 8 (02:35:36):
So free as to wear these tiny little one inch
booty shorts. And I'm like, I am never gonna do that.
Speaker 1 (02:35:42):
Yeah, but you're but that's in your brain, not your body.
You're down like twenty five pounds almost more than that now,
but still, how are you doing that?
Speaker 15 (02:35:49):
Uh?
Speaker 8 (02:35:49):
Well, you know, Allen, I've been working with Mentality mentalityhealth
dot com, slash Radio to journey.
Speaker 1 (02:35:57):
I could go to mentalityhealth dot Com slash video and
they wouldn't be able to help me out. They would
I don't need it, but not everybody want to.
Speaker 8 (02:36:04):
But again, see, I started with the weight loss piece, right, like,
trying to focus on losing some weight. The testosterone pieces,
where most people really need to help you know, everything
about you starts to change over time. It's just I'm
like testosterone numbers like three times what it was when
I started.
Speaker 1 (02:36:24):
I feel like a million bucks. Many about that start
my day harder than Chinese algebra.
Speaker 3 (02:36:31):
This is.
Speaker 1 (02:36:33):
A man. Yeah, hey, forget about the cantagers. Clit Radler,
the incredible Hulk. I call him the Diamond hard Antony.
Speaker 4 (02:36:46):
Diamond.
Speaker 1 (02:36:47):
Yeah, here's a text. Can we pull the plug on
David Lee Roth Samples for f's sake? No? No, absolutely not.
That guy didn't like it. But oh, Allan, if your
air bags went off, that car is going to be toted.
My air bags did not go off, No, nothing like that.
(02:37:08):
It was just some body work that's going to have
to be done at the front. But again, I have
every assumption that they may come to me and go, yeah,
we're gonna toll this out. That's what they said about,
which is going to be a real bummer, by the way,
because I have taken such good care of this car
over the past year or so. Yeah, I started to
put some money into it, but I take great care
of it. Every time I have it at a place,
(02:37:29):
They're like, Jesus, this car didn't even look like it's
ever driven. I go, I know, and for it to
go out like this, Oh the indignity, rob WEF. It's
not over yet, I know, I'm not going to pre
get pre concerned. But the part at the end of
the day, it still has a ton of miles on it.
I mean, the good part really is that the air
(02:37:52):
bags did not go off when my daughter totalled her car.
There wasn't.
Speaker 8 (02:37:57):
I mean, there was enough damage that it was obvious, right,
But the air bags went off and the side curtain
air bags went off.
Speaker 1 (02:38:03):
Oh they did. And the guy looked at the car
and he's like, I'm not I don't have to look
at anything else.
Speaker 8 (02:38:07):
And I'm like why, and he goes because the value
of the car, he's the car's worth fifteen grand. He's like,
once you take just the air bags, He's like, there's
more than five thousand dollars worth of damage in the
front end of the car. Well, he's like, it's ten
grand worth of damage just with the airbags. He was like, oh,
e Jesus, yeah, yeah.
Speaker 1 (02:38:25):
Luke in Lakewood pointing out referring to the letter emails
that Elliott sends me about the vocabulary looking forward to
a new volume of that's what I call big Words.
I forgot all about that because again I talked the
way I talk in the first couple of years I
was here at WMMS, I was roundly mocked for how
(02:38:46):
I talk. Right, Morning Show spent a good two years
making fun of me. I was a new guy, right,
that was the kind of relationship they had with the
old show. They didn't know any better. Yeah, yeah, I
ignored it because I'm like, listen, I've been dealing with
this my whole career. I get it. It's how I talk.
I don't want to tell you. And Miles put together
a CD commercial called That's what I call Big Words.
(02:39:11):
I forgot all about that now we had Cipher Volume two.
Was that a bit that uh that, uh, Miles made
for you or made for Rover, made for me, made
for you? Well, I don't think they played it. I
don't know.
Speaker 32 (02:39:27):
From Alan cock Show records fll that's what I call
big words, with slamming tracks like it would be hoove
you to get on the damn floor, you would.
Speaker 1 (02:39:42):
Crude old mush.
Speaker 32 (02:39:43):
Pit favorites like we both with extreme prejudice if I.
Speaker 27 (02:39:47):
Was rebuffed, the soulful sounds of dynamite loving.
Speaker 12 (02:40:05):
Get bulling in with the King of Crooks bus litigious, litigious,
That's what I call big words.
Speaker 1 (02:40:17):
Some records I forgot all about that. That's great, thank
you Luke and Lakewood reminding me of that. I like
what Target is doing, by the way, to get ridy
get ready for the seasonal holiday sales. Target is taking
(02:40:38):
something every woman hates to hear and making it corporate policy,
which is smile more. Target wants their seasonal workers to
smile more in the hopes of boosting sales. Yes, that's
what they'll do it, not the fifteen dollars tubes of toothpaste.
Smile more. Yeah, well, listen, if you're at that retail level, man,
(02:41:03):
you're grasping at straws at this point, right. But I
don't think this, ain't it. Target instituting a new ten
to four policy for workers requires workers to smile, make
eye contact with wave, or greet a customer who comes
within ten feet.
Speaker 3 (02:41:20):
Now.
Speaker 1 (02:41:20):
I don't envy people working at Target because they see
this on a memo and they have like their mourning
all call or whatever right before the store opens to
get everybody in there store manager, shift manager or whatever.
Goes all right, guys, it's it's what they want. Anybody
who comes within ten feet of you, make eye contact
(02:41:42):
with them and wave. Now for the most part in
my experience, when you go into a target, there are
a lot of highs already, right, I mean, you're in
close proximity to another human being. They'll be like, hey,
how are you good? And there is some psychology behind it.
But the whole smile more thing made me laugh, right
(02:42:02):
because women hate to be told that. No, it's not
like they're going to be walking up to you.
Speaker 30 (02:42:06):
You know.
Speaker 1 (02:42:08):
I guess they wouldn't say that to you because they're
the ones supposed to be smiling.
Speaker 8 (02:42:11):
They're supposed to walk up to you and do like
the movie smile just creep people out. That's what's gonna happen.
Speaker 1 (02:42:15):
Yeah, ah, just staring at you. How's that guy smiling
at me? So the ten to four program, because everything
in corporate speaks got to be dumbed down. The ten
to four program means if the shopper comes within ten
feet of them, had to smile, make eye contact and
(02:42:36):
wave or greet them. Oh my god, they're ten people.
Way now does every employee carry a tape measure with them?
Speaker 8 (02:42:44):
He's thinking that exact same thing. Hold on, hang on, sir,
could you take a step forward please?
Speaker 1 (02:42:51):
I've got you at ten feet four inches, Jaden, I
noticed that you didn't smile at that guy. Well he
was five feet away. You on from it anyway, the
ten four that's what you're supposed to do if they're
within four feet, if they're I'm sorry, within ten feet.
If they're within four feet of you, you're required to
ask them if they need help or how their day
(02:43:12):
is going. Now, how do you determine which you're gonna
ask them?
Speaker 19 (02:43:17):
Right?
Speaker 1 (02:43:18):
Because anytime somebody asks me if I need help in
a retail environment, even if I do, I say no,
thank you. I'll figure it out myself. These aisles are
very specifically labeled I'll find what can I help you?
Speaker 6 (02:43:32):
Now?
Speaker 1 (02:43:32):
It's no incursion on your personal business. It's a pretty
standard retail greeting. Hey can I help you?
Speaker 10 (02:43:42):
Now?
Speaker 1 (02:43:42):
I think here's what you do is you put some
derision in there right, like when you're on the street,
Can I help you?
Speaker 30 (02:43:51):
Do it?
Speaker 3 (02:43:51):
Like that?
Speaker 1 (02:43:51):
Like if you're staring at somebody, can I help? Now?
Wait until the customers flip this back, because this story's
gone wide all the business periodicals and webs so people
are gonna be hip to this. You're gonna have all
kinds of people and this is why it's gonna suck
to be people we're gonna Target. You're gonna have people
walking in going can I help you? Because they're staring
at him and smiling. Mm. Now I can't get the
(02:44:15):
movie Smile out of my head, like staring at you
here in Yeah, Jack Nicholson's kid in this last one?
Why are you looking at me like that? Sir? Company policy?
Because you're within five feet of me. Play with us, Danny,
play with us forever he's not here, missus Darrett bad
(02:44:38):
Robe to welcome that Target bess as Dirat. So there's
a lot of wiggle room here to have fun, I guess.
And you know some people they're real sticklers. Some customers
a lot of negative nellies and care. And I can
(02:45:01):
see them sidling up to an otherwise busy employee and say,
like Kramer in the bank, Hey, you didn't say how's
it going, remembering Kramer tries to get the fifty dollars
because the guy didn't say hi, or how's it going
or whatever? You owe me fifty dollars. Target announced a
batch of corporate layoffs last month. They're based in Minneapolis.
(02:45:23):
Of course, they hadn't done any major layoffs at the
seed the suite level in a decade. That's where Sebio
stepped down, and that's where every company needs to look.
Every single company needs to look at that level and
then the next level down like every I think, I
think AI is going to take care of that one.
Speaker 8 (02:45:41):
Well, just think of all of these companies we'll use
use ours for example, the most management heavy company I've
ever seen in my life. You got one guy telling
another guy who I didn't even know still works here
to do something, that's telling somebody else to do something,
that's passing it on to three people that are doing
it on the market level. It's like, so why not
(02:46:04):
get rid of two or three of those people? The
C suite level jobs in any massive company are insane, insane,
completely unnecessary.
Speaker 1 (02:46:14):
It's pretty wild, especially since so many people fail upward
right Peter Principle. I came up with the ten to
four policy here at Target, guys, this is Frank Martin.
He is the creator of our ten four policy.
Speaker 8 (02:46:31):
You know, the guy was just asleep. Somebody said something
to him, a ten four ten for everybody. Well, what
the hell are you talking about?
Speaker 6 (02:46:37):
Uh?
Speaker 8 (02:46:38):
Well, you guys were talking about smiling right, Yeah, all right,
So if ten feet away you smile, four feet away,
you say.
Speaker 1 (02:46:49):
Hello, Jesus Christ. This guy's brilliant. Why is this guy
not running this company? Guys, Frank came to us from
the citizens band sector of retail. Ten there's a bear
in the air. Ten four, rubber duck. We got to
bring this guy on. He's got a fresh We need
fresh eyes on the situation. The fresh eyes just saved
(02:47:12):
the company. Yep. Ten something as simple as ten to four,
And look at the everybody else is grab it. Lateral
moves right a ceo of one company because you're just
making widgets, doesn't matter what it is. So the guy
who ran Uber can go and run target right, and
golden parachutes all the way around this guy, they go.
We wanted somebody from outside the box. This guy was
(02:47:34):
a long haul trucker. Our new ceo CB community, Oh,
what's the hell's the convoy? Remember that I'm trying to
remember the name of the brand. Cobra. Cobra was the
brand that everybody had for CB radio. Yeah, Cobra, Yeah,
you get him at RadioShack.
Speaker 8 (02:47:53):
This guy was selling Cobra CBS until three weeks ago
and look at him now he's running target.
Speaker 1 (02:48:00):
Yeah, how about that? What do you guys think about
ten for I don't know what do we think about it? Frank, Hey,
you got your YIPI zepper around here, snow sneak on
your tail. You're talking to the wombat. Hey, come on back,
(02:48:20):
phantom over lord. This is quick draw rig. I'm running
target now what I'm running target? I am the man
at Target. Now, I run that whole thing. The Red
and White company where they talk to you if you're
within four feet of the very same road. Quicksilver, Right,
(02:48:42):
there was my idea. You got your ears on? I
said ten and four and they said that I was
just joking around. They said it was amazing. Copy. Oh

I hope you have a wet and sloppy day. How
about that ro I'll tell you what. I'll take it
in the spirit in which it was given and sloppy,
Thank you much? Sweet? And what else? Well, if you're
(02:35):
listening to us on that iHeartRadio app, boy, I hear
a lot of iHeartRadio app promotion promotional messages for the
Christmas format. Oh yeah, over there on Magic I hear
that quite a bit. So when no one's listening, you
have to tell them to listen. If you're not listening
to this program myever. Hey, Jennifer in Tucson, Arizona. She
(03:01):
Tucson at Azunya. She's one of our bureau chiefs out there.
And she goes again to Rob. We're talking about your
dad yesterday. Did you ever fight your dad like a fistfight?
I assume that's what she meant. I mean, otherwise she
would have said argument, right, I assume she means I
would have never. It would have never occurred to me
to lay hands on my own father. I mean, he
(03:23):
was a veteran, for Christ's sakes, right, you're a man
of letters. Occurred to me many a time. Really, my
father would have killed me where I stood, That's what
I mean. There would have been an Allen shaped hole
in the wall. Yeah, oh, absolutely, there's no question about that.
Jennifer said, my dad died when he was forty, and
I'm fifty, so I'm assuming I got my mom's jeans.
(03:43):
That is weird when you outlive a parent. I guess
how old was your dad again? Fifty eight fifty eight,
so a young man some time. Still, Yeah, my dad
was seventy some But you know, neither Rob nor I
fought our dads at one time. I think I told
the story once I.
Speaker 8 (04:02):
Gave him some lip and he said anytime, and I
said whatever. Dad walked outside, and I'll never forget. I
had on a my letterman's jacket from the football team
I played for, and I said something, and he backed
me all the way up to the fence in the
backyard and he grabbed my jacket and twisted his hands
(04:24):
into it, and he said, anytime, you want to try.
Speaker 1 (04:27):
Wow, And his face never changed.
Speaker 8 (04:29):
And he lifted me up off the ground and just
held me for about three seconds and put me back down.
Speaker 1 (04:33):
Yeah, And I said, I'm good. Yeah. My dad never
did that to me. I think when I was younger,
like you know, and I was like and I don't know,
third or fourth grade or something, I got on the line,
he'd kind of do the old scruff of the neck thing,
you know, or he'd squeeze your neck and kind of
try to set you straight. But like, my dad wasn't
a guy. I never once heard my dad yell my parents.
I didn't grow up in a yelling house, and so
(04:56):
I'm pretty laid back in that way. It was always
very jarring to when I would be at friends' houses.
And that's just how the family talked was at this
high volume and the parents going and not even in
necessarily an angry way. A lot of times it was.
I had friends whose parents clearly hated each other, but
you know, just yelling back and forth. It was like,
Oh my god, how do you live like this? I
was more afraid of my mom than I was at
(05:17):
her dad. My mom was the one who spent my
whole life spankingt me. Yeah, my dad work. My mother
had no fear, like she was great until she wasn't,
and then just watch out. She had to deal with
two boys. She would beat the piss out of us
if we needed it. She never really it wasn't like that.
Speaker 8 (05:34):
When I say, like, that sounds very violent, right like,
but she was not afraid whatsoever.
Speaker 1 (05:40):
To make sure you knew your place. Yeah you know
what I mean? Oh, I saw a guy driving a
car wearing a motorcycle helmet today? How about that? I
hit a deer last night, Rob, I know. I'll show
you a photo here for people who are watching the
live stream, there's my twenty fifteen Ford Fusion post deer.
I was all my home boy, all most home. I
(06:03):
take the Crocker exit and then I go north to
Bay Village. There, I was literally like three minutes from
the house and I'm not flying. I just got off
the highway, so I'm literally doing like twenty five and
this deer comes out of nowhere and all I see
is this thing somersaulting over my hood and I go bam,
(06:23):
And I'm like, oh, what So this front driver's side
headlight that I just spent five hundred dollars to fix
a couple of weeks ago, that thing is completely shattered.
Now it could have been a lot worse, you know
what I mean, these big deers and deer. And then
I get home and I'm talking to my daughter about this,
and they was like, oh okay. I go, yeah, I'm fine,
(06:44):
I said, but there was like no, you know, and
it's not uncommon. When I talk to my insurance company
this morning, the girl's like, oh God, all we've been
getting is people hitting deer. But normally I see them,
you know, there's a lot of them. I see this
just came out of norhe I'm like, why would you
run across the street when there's cars? Uh? But they're dumb. Well,
But then my daughter goes, is it alive? I go,
I do not know. I don't know. I didn't stop
(07:07):
and pull over and find out. I go just in
my periphery, it looked like this thing was I told
her it ran off from him. He's perfectly fun. That's
what she wants to hear, you know. No, I pulled
in the next parking lot there was one of these
local businesses underneath one of the giant street lamps to
get out and kind of survey the dam. I'm like, God,
damn it. Yep, so you were able to keep driving?
Oh yeah, the car is fully operational, like it's I
(07:27):
think it's gonna be just a lot of body work,
but I mean, yeah, the whole front driver's side of
the car, like the hood is jacked and the headlights
shattered and the you know, so again, it could have
been a lot worse. But I was like, of course, right,
I'm gonna be traveling for the holidays and all that crap.
So now I got to get this thing figured out.
Can you get it in sooner than later? Well, I'm
(07:48):
gonna get it in early next week. What I'm worried about, though,
you know, it's the twenty fifteen, and it's got it's
it's in great shape. But it's still got two hundred
and twenty eight thousand miles on it, right, so I'm
worried they're gonna be like, yeah, it's five to fix.
The car is worth seven. So I don't know. We'll see.
But no, I didn't get hurt anything like that, but
it was just very annoying, very very annoying. Peal them
(08:11):
a way to end my day yesterday. It might be
time to call your buddy who Rich Clayton. H Yeah, maybe,
well we'll see what they say. Right. Call the insurance
and she's like, hey, we'll figure it out. Big kope,
Like do you have the the deductible? I do have that.
It's not huge. Yeah, okay, yeah no, so I'll slap
that down and then i'll have them. You know though
(08:32):
obviously they'll give me a Sumi, but it's like, you know,
I'll be driving a rental for a little while and whatever.
But boy, what a way to end my day. If
you're going to get a rental, may I recommend getting
something that you're actually interested in purchasing next so you
can figure out if you actually like it. I don't
think they have a lot of aston Martin Vanguard's at
(08:53):
Enterprise rob. I don't know if they have a lot
of Alpha Romeo. I know there's an Alfa Romeo dealership
over in Strongsville, but I don't think that they have
a lot of those around you, believe it or not.
Speaker 8 (09:07):
Avis does not rent Lamborghini SUV's. I know you're never
gonna believe this.
Speaker 1 (09:12):
There's a parent and I don't know who their kid is,
but on days that were off or whatever, and I'm
picking my kid up from school, there is somebody at
my kid's school who picks their child up in a
Rolls Royce Suv. That's their car, is a Rolls Suv.
Speaker 8 (09:28):
And I'm like, wow, I've found that that usually is
the child of a ballplayer or football player, something like
that is usually the case.
Speaker 1 (09:39):
Oh yeah, maybe I don't know that there's anybody like
that at her school though, because I feel like I
would have heard, but with you.
Speaker 8 (09:44):
Haven't dough right, most people who have like flex money
like that aren't going to drive that car is there
every day?
Speaker 10 (09:53):
You know?
Speaker 1 (09:53):
But I genuinely listen. I live. I'm in Bay Village.
I am a few blocks from the lake. Yeah, they
have all all those hospital size houses, right, and people
are building more. There's this house out there on Lake
Road that some people might know. They referred to it
as the Swiffer House. I don't know if it's urban
legend or what, but it's a massive house and somebody
said it was the family that invented the swiffer. I
don't know if that's true or not. If you know,
(10:15):
you know, And I'm driving by and they're putting an
addition on it. They're putting it like an airplane hangar
on the side of this thing, and I'm like, with respect,
this is northeast Ohio. I'm like, there's only so many
professional athletes to go around. Where is all this money
Because there's only so many there's only one progressive CEO
and probably didn't live here, you know what I mean.
There's all this money, clearly, but I'm like, what do
(10:38):
these people do for a living? Like I make a
good living. But I'm like, Jesus, that house wasn't big
enough for you. You're like, nah, anymore space The Allen
car Show.
Speaker 11 (10:49):
On one hundred.
Speaker 1 (10:54):
Show. Listening to the show doesn't make you a bad person.
In the foot locker at the end of your bed,
that makes you a bad person. The Buzzard. Well, all right,
(11:15):
more money for you here in about ten minutes. Try
to get it as close to two thirty as I
can for you. It's keywords from the Buzzard bookie. I
think today and tomorrow and Friday are the last few
days to grab some to get up in just about
every hour, So a lot of opportunities for you to
grab some of that cash if you have not already.
Your Cavaliers are still in Miami. They got beat in
(11:38):
overtime the other night, a buzzer beater Ali Oup. Both
teams now at seven to four. Calves in Miami to
play the Heat tonight. That's a seven point thirty start,
so seven o'clock pregame. Get you all the coverage here
on WMMS, and then the Calves will come home tomorrow
night to host the Raptors, and they will be here
(12:00):
through the twenty third before they hit the road to
play the Raptors there in Toronto Thanksgiving week, So he'll
be home for a pretty good stretch. You know. Calv's
looking for revenge tonight against Chris bosh Alia. Hoot.
Speaker 8 (12:13):
What a lot of the talk obviously was about the
alley oop, right, but have you seen the video, the
sideline video of.
Speaker 1 (12:22):
The three to tie the game. No, that.
Speaker 8 (12:27):
He is on another Donovan Mitchell is just on another
planet at the moment.
Speaker 1 (12:32):
That that should be.
Speaker 8 (12:34):
If there was no Alley oop to win the game,
that would have been the highlight of the game and
maybe part of his season. Like he dives into a three,
It's incredible. I've watched it like twenty times. He is
so good.
Speaker 1 (12:49):
Let me see if I can show this here. I
think this is what you're talking about. They inbound the ball,
Donovan Mitchell crazy, he's game tying three.
Speaker 8 (12:58):
He steps over the line basically just turns and shoots,
and it's I mean, it's it's textbooks.
Speaker 1 (13:04):
This is right before the Alli oop says are six
seconds in overtime, right, yeah, this was the play before.
Speaker 12 (13:10):
In the Merril the three for the tie, he missed it,
rebound taken by Mitchell.
Speaker 1 (13:15):
The three for the tie.
Speaker 12 (13:16):
He made it with four tenths of a second left
try the game.
Speaker 1 (13:22):
And that was a sloppy toss too. That's what I'm saying.
Speaker 8 (13:25):
Just if you just watch him step out and he
is just another level of a ballplayer right there. That
dude is incredible, really, and that should be what we
remember we unfortunately.
Speaker 1 (13:37):
We got him from the Jazz Where do we get
him from? It was a big deal when he came here. Huge.
Speaker 8 (13:42):
Yeah, yeah, and that's that. They're a fantastic team. I
worry about the injuries, obviously, but they'll be all right. Yeah, Allen.
Speaker 1 (13:53):
Deer always get hit this time of year because they
are in rut, they're losing their minds. Oh, I know,
I know. Do just mean they're always horny? Yeah? I
just usually see them, you know what I mean? This
one time I just didn't well. And sometimes there's nothing
you could do about it either. I mean they jump
out in front of you.
Speaker 3 (14:09):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (14:10):
No, one's like, yes, I get to hit a deer today?
Yeah yeah, well yeah, I mean suburban roads are you know,
obviously back roads, but a lot of these suburban roads
are just littered with carcasses. You know, how far did
you have to drive before you could pull over and
take a look. It was right there. There were a
couple of like nine to five businesses out there off
(14:30):
the Crocker exit there past like the Double Tree Hotel.
There's these places off the side there, like a couple
of distribution warehouse. I know where you were, Yeah, and
I pulled right in.
Speaker 4 (14:39):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (14:39):
It was between the shell station and the train tracks there, okay,
And I just pulled right in because you know, nobody
in the parking lot obviously is a little bit after
seven o'clock and you know, huge lights in the parking lots.
I pulled them, like, yeah, bless it. Alan. My name
is Anne, Gina God. I hope that's an China Yah
(15:00):
and Gina's show. Yeah. My comment is about standing up
to your father. I'm fifty four now, and standing up
to your father is one thing you did not do well. Listen,
there were a lot of people of the gen X
generation who absolutely stood up to their dads. I just
(15:22):
didn't have that kind of relationship with my dad, right.
He wasn't like, he wasn't giving me a hard time.
My dad was working. He's busy working. You know. I'm
fortunate that I work. Listen, I work a lot and
have for thirty years. But you know, people of a
certain age are like, I never saw my dad. So
it's nice. You know, if you're able to be around
(15:44):
your kids, you know, the way that you want to.
But that wasn't a concern when I was a kid,
you know, it was like my dad was dismissive of it,
but you know, he was working, and I was just
afraid enough. I was not afraid of my dad.
Speaker 8 (15:59):
We got along fine, but I was afraid enough that
I knew not to do certain things, you know.
Speaker 1 (16:06):
Bring hookers home.
Speaker 8 (16:07):
That was that's he encouraged that. But as far as like,
if I was disrespectful, that was usually where he would
draw the line.
Speaker 1 (16:14):
Hookers were fine, if he was disrespectful to the hooker.
Oh that's the one never frowned upon, by the way.
Shout out to Stephen vote, back to back al Manager
and your honors there, Stephen vote from your Cleveland Guardians.
That's a huge deal man. Back to back twenty four
and twenty five, the AL Central beating out Toronto's John Schneider.
(16:36):
Of course he is the skipper there of the Toronto
Blue Jays, one of my teams. But also I believe
he played Bo Duke on the TV show The Dukes
of Hazzard back in the day. What a career pivot.
And Dan Wilson of the Seattle Mariners.
Speaker 8 (16:53):
I think both of those dudes would have beat out
Stephen Vote if they had won the World Series.
Speaker 1 (16:59):
Well yeah, he gotta think that, right, Yeah, but I
mean Toronto a got closer than Seattle, and Cleveland did well, right,
they were in the World Series.
Speaker 8 (17:06):
But I think vote just had that march, remember how
I mean they were down eighteen games, yeah, in July
and they made the playoffs.
Speaker 1 (17:13):
You know, that's that's the kind of stuff. That's what
they look at. Obviously, he's a young dude. He's forty one.
He's a player's manager. He looks older than that, and
he's still so close.
Speaker 8 (17:24):
To his playing years. That's what these dudes love about him,
is like, you know, they he gets it. He knows
what they're going through. And he and let's not forget
on top of getting that team back after eight being
down eighteen games, he managed through those pitching scolendar controversies.
Speaker 1 (17:39):
Yeah yeah, yeah, they're uh, they're blowing out the prop bets,
right yea, because major League Baseball is like, yeah, this
is no good, and they should two guys from the
same team, two guys from the from the Cleveland Guardians,
and they should blow him up. The whole thing is crap.
What a stain sures. So anyway, he's one of only
(18:00):
three people to post back to back awards in those
seasons going back to nineteen eighty three, Pat Murphy who
was also twenty four and twenty five for the Brewers,
Kevin Cash with the Rays, and Bobby Cox no relation
with the Atlanta Braves. So congratulations to Stephen vote your
(18:27):
Cleveland guardians. The vote, if you will went in his favor,
recorded seventeen first place votes, one hundred and thirteen voting
points over who votes for this baseball writers? Yeah, yeah,
guys who always has some kind of acts to grind.
Speaker 8 (18:42):
And I think, man, I think the managers vote too.
I think like they're involved. I'm pretty guy runs to Wendy's.
Oh the baseball bannings.
Speaker 1 (18:49):
I'm sorry, Yeah, they open it up to anyone who
manages at all. I got a ballot, Yeah, hey, I'm yeah, right,
you have Rob's the program director here. He's a manager.
I don't manage anything. I manage myself. That's about it, right.
I didn't get a vote in that whole thing, nor
should I. Quite frankly, what the hell do I have
to do with voting for the manager of the Year
(19:13):
in Major League Baseball? Nothing? Raw, nothing, and nor should I?
Speaker 3 (19:21):
Ell?
Speaker 1 (19:21):
Why can't the Calves make foul shots. I have to
think that they can. They can. I don't know. I
don't have a good answer for that, don't know. All
my bakery kept running out of free donuts for veterans yesterday. Well,
if you got to run out, that's probably a good
(19:42):
day to run out, you know. I have to think
that Veterans Day is also a big, big day for
Sildena phil What is that? That's viagua? Oh isn't it?
Isn't that the generic name when you watch the commercials?
Isn't that the generic name for the boner pills? I
don't know. I only know those Cilis viagra. I only
(20:04):
know him by that when they do the commercials they
have to give you is gim I know his best
one ever? Sounds like a Wu tang giving you some
medical advice. What is that one? Oh god something sky Rizzy? Yeah,
there you go, rihsm Gizz gives them. It sounds exactly
like a Wu tang thing. I love it so much,
sky Rizzy. Yeah, and I don't even know what that does,
(20:25):
no idea. Sky Rizzy is a immunosuppressant used to treat
chronic inflammatory autoimmune condition. Okay, yeah, right, what do you
who knew Snoop was on this the whole time. The
(20:46):
fact that they don't have him doing these is a travisy.
Oh god, right, he should be in these commercials.
Speaker 8 (20:52):
Have Method Man and Redman come running out and just
talk about sky Rizzy. It would be the greatest moment
of all time. Oh just whole o d B from
the grave. Yeah, Oh, it would be so good.
Speaker 1 (21:06):
Hey, Dirty, maybe I got some rhysm kiss. I mean,
because most of the ones that you see are for
skin conditions, right, I don't know why those are so prevalent.
They're all very you know, psoriasis and exema and all this.
You know, I'm not going to gonna have to do
the legal ease, right. They have to speak in these
commercials in a way that nobody ever would naturally speak.
(21:26):
So they're like, well, I'm treating my moderate to severe.
You know, we've all seen these, but uh yeah, the
US caps rism it's my favorite.
Speaker 8 (21:37):
Protection, Nick, Yeah, you want to check.
Speaker 1 (21:59):
And there do you remember this song I do? It's
called Dixie Chicken. It's a band called Little Feet, and
the people who are in the Little Feet are way
in the Little Feet. So they have a pretty dedicated
fan base, and this was arguably the biggest song they had.
But it's a band that you don't necessarily really think of, right.
Richie Hayward was their longtime drummer, and when I first
(22:22):
started taking lessons, my drum teacher was like pals of
Richie Hayward or something like that and founding member of
the band, and he was. You know, when you talk
about underrated musicians in rock and roll, I always think
about Richie Hayward. Warren Zevon just got into the rock
and roll Hall of Fame and easily. Warren Zevon's kind
of most commercial album, most highly produced, most you know,
(22:44):
was called Sentimental Hygiene Smack Dab in the middle of
the eighties, and Richie Hayward was the drummer on all
those tracks. But Little Feet, for people who remember that
band has announced that they are done. Really, I think
they have one founding guy in the band. Billy Payne
is the co found The singer I think was a
guy named Lowell George if memory serves, and he was
(23:05):
a guy who died on the road in his hotel
room of a heroin overdose. He had a heart attack
and they determined that it had been a heroin overdose.
But Little Feet says that they're calling it quits with
a final tour. So they're just a jam band out
of Los Angeles. Boy before anybody, you know, back when
you're if you like jam bands, your choices were, you know,
(23:28):
kind of I don't know if these guys were at
Woodstock or what. But Little Feet is one of those
bands that some people are really really into. And these
guys are all like, you know, late seventies, early eighties.
So they're calling it quits after a tour. After it,
Oh good, I will actually go and see that. I've
seen them once. I would definitely go see them again
to say I saw them again. Yeah, have you seen them?
I've never seen Little Feet again. I like Richie Hayward
(23:51):
as a drummer. It's just nothing that I ever heard
from them, like, really, scratch me where I at.
Speaker 8 (23:57):
Yeah, it's not I mean, you know, it's it's it's
not as annoying as the jam bandy grateful dead stuff,
you know what I mean. It's more, I don't know,
it's got its own thing. It's fun. I would say
if I had to go see one, it would be them,
because you can't see the Omen Brothers.
Speaker 1 (24:15):
Yeah, they're doing about twenty dates. You will have to travel. Actually,
the very last date on the tour is in Thornville, Ohio.
I think that's where they have the gathering of the Juggalos.
Sometimes they're gonna do the Dark Star Jubilee. I hope
they're headlining that. Oh Okay, So the very last farewell
tour date will be in Ohio. Otherwise you would have
(24:36):
to travel to like suburb Chicago or Kansas City or
you know, Fort Lauderdale, something like that.
Speaker 8 (24:42):
Is your wife back from Fort Lauderdale. She made it
back last night. Hey, she got in late late, late
last night.
Speaker 1 (24:48):
Speaking of Florida as a guy one of our bureau
chiefs in you know, the Treasure Coast, it's where our
former colleague, Jason Carr runs some radio stations for this company. Right,
he was our program director before Rob got here. He
was our COVID PD. But he's originally from Florida, and
so when it was time for him to leave here,
(25:09):
he went back home. But this part of the state
of Florida is called the Treasure Coast. Port Saint Lucie, Florida.
A guy in the wee hours. Sounds like after last call,
walking out of a bar and he pulls out a
pistol and starts firing because he's arguing with other people
about how many eggs a chicken can lay. Sounds like
(25:29):
a perfectly good reason to do that.
Speaker 13 (25:32):
We're chickens led a man to fire a handgun at
three people outside Harper's pob It happened around two thirty
in the morning yesterday. Treasure Coast via reporter Angela Rozier
has the body camera video.
Speaker 1 (25:42):
Well do they always say, rob nothing good happens after
two am? Some people say midnight. Some people say nothing
good happens after midnight. That's demonstrably false. A lot of
great stuff happens after midnight. When you get into the
wee hours, you're going to get somebody who's armed. It
is Florida, the Ohio of the South, and arguing over
dumb crap.
Speaker 8 (26:02):
I like to say nine to thirty, nothing good happens
after nine after when I'm talking them in that's.
Speaker 1 (26:07):
Okay, kill me, don't don't go gun. This is this
guy barefoot, overall shorts yep, right overall's bibs and shorts.
Speaker 14 (26:21):
You fall on the camera footage of forty four year
old Peter Riira being taken into custody by.
Speaker 1 (26:26):
Ports hard By. I got ten years firing.
Speaker 14 (26:29):
Four rounds from a forty five caliber clock at three
people after an argument outside the clothes pub. Police say,
once outside, the conversation became heated. Riia became paranoid and
believed the victims were out to get him.
Speaker 15 (26:43):
The shooter evidently raises chickens, and the conversation was about
how many eggs a chicken can lay.
Speaker 14 (26:50):
They say that's when Riira armed himself with a handgun
and started firing.
Speaker 1 (26:54):
One victim ran out into the roadway trying to get
away from the shooter.
Speaker 9 (26:58):
Uh.
Speaker 1 (26:58):
The other two victims head. We had several phone calls.
The shooter himself called nine to one one.
Speaker 14 (27:04):
We were at the scene as officers gathered evidence.
Speaker 1 (27:06):
Later that morning, Hey, why was your uncle killed outside
that bar?
Speaker 5 (27:10):
Oh?
Speaker 1 (27:10):
He was telling a guy that a chicken could only
lay one egg a day. Yeah, and the guy didn't
care for that bitch. You see my strong cap and overalls.
You think I don't know how many eggs and chickens
lay in a day. Yeah, it's a good reminder. By
the way, Speaking of the Dixie Chicken. It's a good
reminder that Florida is very much the South. We're people
who somehow deny that. I don't understand why they do,
(27:33):
but people who live in Florida, for whatever reason, they
somehow take umbrage when you call Florida like Dixie Land
very much. Exactly what it is is very much the South,
just because you guys boil your peanuts and it is.
It was the third state to secede from the in
this frigging Civil War, you know what I mean. So
(27:53):
Florida is very and with Ron DeSantis in charge, Jesus,
these guys like George Wallace with a herd law degree,
so he's really trying to relive the good old days.
But yeah, Florida is very much the South. They were
making a run to be the new South for a while.
But oh the sandus Ah, he's you know, taking him
(28:18):
back to a time that never existed in the first place.
We draw the line with elevator's shoes there you go. Yeah,
so the guy, listen, do you know how many eggs
a chicken can lay? My initial thought in this story
was this is missing some crucial context, right, how many
eggs can a chicken. Lamb like, well, over what period
(28:40):
of time? I guess. I don't know what the specifics
of the argument were. So what they said right now?
What he said?
Speaker 8 (28:46):
How many chickens and eggs? Oh god, how many eggs
a chicken can lay in a day?
Speaker 1 (28:50):
Oh? I didn't hear the question.
Speaker 8 (28:51):
I thought it was, Oh, okay, And if it is,
let's just say twenty four hours.
Speaker 1 (28:55):
Yeah, you have to assume two. I think it's one.
Is it one? I don't know, but I feel like
I heard somewhere that I didn't know it was that frequent.
I had somebody years ago, a friend that lived out
in the sticks, and he had chickens and everything else,
and I'm pretty sure he was like, it's like one
a day. My brother has chicken fast. One a day.
Speaker 8 (29:18):
My brother has chickens. And I know he always has
a massive amount of eggs. Those are ducks and I
hate them. He has chickens, and yeah, he always has
a lot of eggs. So there it has to be.
I think at least once a day. I'm gonna say,
maximum of two per day.
Speaker 1 (29:37):
Well, this is what I'm saying is that I would
think at I would think at least one a day.
But I don't know. You know, I babysat ostriches back
in the day, but I don't know anything about chickens.
Speaker 8 (29:51):
You're right, A chicken can lay at most one egg
per day because the process of forming an egg takes
between twenty four and twenty six hours, most.
Speaker 1 (30:01):
Max one a day. So how was this a long argument?
Speaker 16 (30:04):
Then?
Speaker 1 (30:05):
Well?
Speaker 8 (30:05):
Right, well, because the least drunk I had to say
was one bitch it takes a day to set it up,
otherwise it'll come out solved.
Speaker 1 (30:13):
Yeah, But then it's two thirty in the morning, everybody's drunk,
and it turns into what did she say? The argument
got heated, Cleatus. Hold up.
Speaker 8 (30:26):
What I'm trying to tell you is I've seen twin chickens.
Speaker 1 (30:31):
Man, that would be two eggs, not one egg.
Speaker 8 (30:35):
He's like, no, man, that's still one egg you see
there inside of the same egg.
Speaker 1 (30:38):
Man, that's it. I'm getting my glock. Which came first,
the chicken or the egg? It's a great question. I
think science has definitively determined over many, many years that
the chicken did come first. And I don't know what
if that sounds.
Speaker 17 (30:58):
Like science is a liar? Sometimes it was like, it
was terrible. It was very very low.
Speaker 1 (31:14):
Oh oh, the Allen Cox.
Speaker 18 (31:17):
Show on one hundred point seven.
Speaker 1 (31:22):
Call the Alan Cox Show. I want to listen to
what's radio again?
Speaker 19 (31:27):
Two one sixty five seven eight one double oh seven
or one eight hundred three four eight one double oh seven.
Speaker 6 (31:50):
Too.
Speaker 1 (32:02):
Do you remember Nick Simmons did you watch?
Speaker 10 (32:05):
Yeah?
Speaker 1 (32:05):
Do you ever watched Gene Simmons Family Jewels? Yeah, it
was years ago, and I think it was I think
it was after the Osborne's. I actually liked it better
than the Osborne's. It was Shannon Tweed, who was Gene
simmons long suffering girlfriend, and their kids who kind of
in direct contrast. I guess it was. It was contingental
(32:27):
what flavor you liked, right, The Osborne's were just NonStop chaos.
Family Jewels was kind of a juxtaposition with this guy
who called himself the Demon and all this stuff, but
his life was very normal and his kids were nice.
And Nick Simmons was his son, and Sophie is his daughter.
And this was many years ago and everybody's all grown up.
(32:47):
I think you know, Sophie has kids of her own now. Anyway,
Nick Simmons and Evan Stanley, who was Paul Stanley's son,
have a band and they're getting ready to drop their
first song December fifth, that is three weeks from Friday.
It's called Body Down. The band is called Stanley Simmons. Now, okay,
(33:13):
other than that sounding like your ap English teacher, I
guess my question is those are their dad's stage names. Now.
I know you want people to know who you are,
and that's always been a question of mine. Do you
grow up with your listen if you know your Kiss lore,
I'm not telling you anything new, right. Paul Stanley's real
name was Stanley Paul eisen and Gene Simmons born in Israel.
(33:38):
His given name was Tim Vitz. Yes, so if you're
using your family's names, your band would be called Eisenwitz.
Right now, that's not going to have the same rock
and roll hook if you're trying to get people hip
to the fact that you are the spawn of two
guys from Kiss. But like, I don't think Jeene Simmons
or Paul Stanley ever had their names legally changed, so
(34:01):
I'm always curious about that. Like that, he calls himself
Nick Simmons and Sophie Simmons. I mean, Channon Tweet and
Gene Simmons have since married. But that's not his name,
you know what I mean. I'm splitting hairs here. But
but but I'm only asking because this is not unprecedented.
I was always interested in people who had their parents'
(34:24):
stage name. I didn't find anything when I was kind
of looking into it. I didn't find anything that indicated
that Paul Stanley or Jene Simmons ever legally changed their name.
I have to think that Gene simmons driver's license says
I'm vits on it, And now I could be way off.
Some of you kiss nerds might know differently. He's so funny.
(34:44):
A cop that pulls him over and hand it.
Speaker 8 (34:46):
Over say all right, you're not Gene Simmons.
Speaker 1 (34:53):
No, I'm Homviots.
Speaker 4 (35:00):
One thing I forget.
Speaker 1 (35:02):
I am Jeene Simmons of Kiss and of myself. He
gets pulled over and with his iPhone four and the
aux cord plugged in so we can listen to this
program on the iHeartRadio. A excuse me, mister Vitz.
Speaker 8 (35:14):
We noticed that you were addle with your vehicles, so
we decided to pull you over.
Speaker 1 (35:19):
Yeah, issue a citation. It's your boy Ace he's rocking
right now? Yeah, yeah, so uh. Nick Simmons and Evans Stanley, Now,
both of these guys have been doing the rock and
roll thing for a while. I think back in the
day when Family Jewels was first run. I don't think
either of his kids hennity. I mean again, Nick Simmons
(35:41):
is a tall dude, good looking kid, long hair, the
whole thing. But I don't know that he was an
aspiring rock and roll guy. I know that Sophie was
a singer. I don't know if that show still airs anywhere.
I don't know if you can stream episodes of Geene
Simmons Family Jewels. I think it was on A and E.
It was, yeah, yeah, which, of course stands are Arts
and Entertainment formerly the artist formerly known as Arts and Entertainment.
(36:05):
Yeah yeah, I don't. I don't so this is always
called body down. I don't think it's I don't think
anywhere any of it's dropped yet. But that is an
interesting question.
Speaker 8 (36:14):
I wonder if they do go by or if their
legal names are Simmons.
Speaker 1 (36:21):
But can you legally have a surname. I think your
name is not anything it can be. I don't know.
I don't either like I could just change my surname.
I mean, Bill changed their first names all the time.
But your surname is what's attached to a social Security number,
and it's you know.
Speaker 8 (36:38):
You can get rid of a surname, so I would
assume that you can change it.
Speaker 1 (36:43):
Or Yeah, I wish I had known this a long
time ago, Rob that I could have changed my surname.
Now I don't know that I would have, of course,
but yeah, but I was one. So anyway, I'm interested
to hear what this is. I don't think it's going
to be. Judging by what they're wearing. They kind of
look like a king, not Kings of leon a Greta
(37:07):
Van Fleet cover band is what they look like. I
don't know if that's the vibe they're going, She says,
Nick Is thirty six. Yeah, these are not kids anymore.
They were kids when the show was on. Sophie's thirty three. Yeah,
oh they're growed up. Wow. And they don't need money.
Even if Gene Simmons is your dad, And if there
was ever a famous dad who looked like he wasn't
(37:29):
getting give you a friggin dime, you'd have to do
it yourself. It's Gene Simmons. But I'm sure the kids
are set up fine.
Speaker 8 (37:34):
You see, her legal name is Sophie Alexandra Tweed Simmons. Yeah,
so it must be that their names are Maybe he
did legally change his name. I don't know that. I
had never seen anything that that happened.
Speaker 1 (37:47):
But so these guys were like, yeah, about a year ago,
we were just dicking around and we came up with
us song, and then that turned into more songs, and
then we were having fun and turned into a whole album.
So they've posted things on YouTube over the past couple
of years like, but it's more like the Eagles and
(38:08):
Simon and Garfunkel and that kind of stuff. So I
don't know that this is going to be like a
fire breathing rock and roll thing.
Speaker 8 (38:14):
His legal name is Nicholas Adam Tweed Simmons, so Tweed
Simmons appears.
Speaker 1 (38:19):
To be the legal last name of both. All right,
interesting trying to find this song, but this Stanley Simmons. Hello,
I'm Stanley Simmons.
Speaker 17 (38:33):
I would have seen a lot of comments about this,
and we are stoked to announce that our debut single,
Body Down, is finally coming out it's gonna be December fifth,
So hit the pre save link in our bio.
Speaker 11 (38:42):
Please hit the pre save link in our bio.
Speaker 1 (38:44):
Prease, hit the pre save link. Please. It's twenty twenty five.
Where's some of the music here? I mean, don't you
(39:06):
want to hear some vocals?
Speaker 8 (39:07):
It was right at that good part. Yeah, I felt
like something was finally about to happen.
Speaker 1 (39:11):
That's what I mean. That's how they get your rob.
That's how they get if I can borrow pornography phrase,
that's how they get their fishhooks in your rob. Uh huh?
Speaking of porno, did you see that Jenna Jamison has
found the Lord? Oh good, I guess only because he
didn't see her first. But listen, what do they say?
(39:32):
Religion is the last refuge of the scoundrel. Now, I'm
not calling her that. She's put in a lot of
years and she's had a lot of stuff going on. Right,
she had to deal with Tito or Tease, for God's sake,
that is worst. But Jenna Jamison has found Jesus and
she's trying to get the word out after many years
(39:52):
of being known for sin. She's all over Instagram, and
boy she was when you cast your mind back if
you are of a certain generation, and you can recall
the glory days of one Jenna Jamison. She set herself
apart with her enthusiasm. There were a lot of gorgeous women. Now,
she was never one of my faves back in the day,
(40:14):
but I fully understood why everybody while she was the
one getting all the heat, right, she was in private parts.
She's the naked girl in the studio, right Jamison. She's
fifty one now and she has gone through wait for it,
say it with me, a transformative personal journey. She got
(40:34):
baptized and she's helping others find Jesus. Now I'm not here.
If you will to throw stones, I think it's all silly,
but that's her. She should do what she wants to do.
So she's very much now into the Lord. On Instagram,
(40:57):
she said she is quote switching sides. Now, that's probably
a term that probably came up earlier in her career too,
But she has gone through some stuff now. The only
time she screams oh God is when she's praying wmms
(41:17):
rob on social media? Is that correct? I believe?
Speaker 19 (41:20):
So.
Speaker 1 (41:22):
She says that she is oh oh loud and proud
about her walk with Jesus Christ. She was always very,
very loud and proud with whatever she did. I will
give her that, Well, why do that job if you're
a goal I was gonna say half ascid, But why
do that job if you're just gonna throw it around
like it's a wet rag, right, I mean, you've got
(41:44):
to be enthusiastic. She was enthusiastic. Back in the day,
you had to make the cut in porn, right, there
were gatekeepers, there were studios. Now everybody's got a camera.
You just have to be willing to do porn, you know.
I mean, for you, there's money to be made and
there's no reason, you know, so it's it's been democratized.
(42:04):
But again, back in the day, it was like a
legit thing. You had to get cast in things. And
you know, people have asked the same question forever. How
is porn full of these hot, hot women? Why aren't
they doing something quote unquote at the time more legitimate?
(42:30):
You know, these are gorgeous women. Now some of them
were beat up, okay, but I mean you're like, why
aren't they like legitimate actresses? Or because they you know,
people are like, oh, they can't act, except you got
to be a good actress to do pornography. I would
argue that's the hardest kind of acting to do. You
have to pretend like you're having a great time all
(42:52):
the time, no matter who you're with, whether they flost,
whether they brush their teeth, whatever. It is. So Jenna Jamison,
as so many other people in her situation have, has
wound up on the side of the Lord team Jesus
all the way is what she says on her Instagram.
(43:16):
And I was surprised, and I got to tell you
a little encouraged that I didn't see her comments taken
over by trolls. Now, maybe she's going through and surgically
managing that. I don't know, but there could be. You
know how people love to get in people's face. You
can't make anybody happy, right, They're mad if you don't
love Jesus, and then you're they're mad if you don't
(43:38):
aren't the right person to you know, follow Jesus or whatever.
And then we're eyebrow deep in people who say they
love Jesus don't want anything to do with what he
talked about. So I say good for Jenna Jamison. I
mean the good news is she can still do both
on her knees too. Dam was pretty good. Yeah, you're eminence, excellency.
(44:11):
Jenna Jamison's you know what her real name is, Jennifer Jamison,
is it? No, I'm kidding. Jennifer Marie Massoli started. Yeah,
she started, and she's really been all over the place
right with her sexuality. And again, if you've seen any
of her previous work, it's no shock. But she was
(44:32):
with Tito Ortiz, she was married to a guy before that.
She got married to a woman, and I think they
might have had kind of an acrimonious situation. They were
married for under a year. She's married to a woman
named Jesse Lawless. And at that time, Jenna Jamison was
still really kind of going through some stuff. She was
partying and drinking a lot. Yeah, she was having a
real hard time. And now she's dating this young kid,
(44:57):
you know, because what better way to kind of feel
like you're still in the game. You're a fifty one
year old retired porn actress and the dude you're dating
probably isn't familiar with your earlier work. Oh, I would
assume he's well, probably after he met her and they
got to know each other. But I mean, she's had
a lot of cosmetic surgery done, so she doesn't look
like she did obviously when she was eighteen years old.
(45:19):
But nobody does whether or not you have work done right,
And so she's dating somebody much younger. She was married
to Brad Armstrong, who was referred to as the King
of Porn in the mid nineties. She married another guy
in porn a few years after that. She has sixteen
year old twin sons with Tito Ortez. She has an
(45:41):
eight year old with a former fiance she was engaged to,
like this Israeli businessman or something around. So, you know,
Jenna Jamison has made the rounds Now she's engaged to
the Lord. If it keeps her alive, good for her?
I think so right, keeps you on the straight and narrow,
(46:01):
I mean, whatever it takes, whatever it needs to be. Yeah,
you know, get herself.
Speaker 8 (46:05):
Look at the end of the day, everybody wants to
be happy, right, and if this is what does that
good for her?
Speaker 9 (46:09):
Oh?
Speaker 1 (46:10):
Oh oh?
Speaker 8 (46:11):
She has spent an entire lifetime trying to be something
that she obviously was not, you know what I mean,
So it's got to be freeing. Maybe even if this
isn't who she is, to be in such a different
place in her life, it must feel good, you know
what I mean?
Speaker 1 (46:27):
No joking there, Yeah, Alan, I work for a probate court.
You can absolutely change your surnames. Oh good for you.
Jenna was in a lot of films with the same
title but different volumes inside Jenna Jamison up and Comers Yeah,
Ray West. They spelt comers wrong. I don't know what
(46:50):
that means. Rob, see me after the show, will you, okay?
Speaking of Wieners, our friend Leslie call left a message.
Speaker 6 (47:00):
And old quit Bratler congrat someone year by the way.
Speaker 1 (47:04):
It's Leslie, yes, Why do you have to be the
old clit rattler? Well right, maybe she means that in
a nice way. That means like all ol your face
she's being folksy O l d e y old ye oldie.
That's even worse old time don Ra all right, hey.
Speaker 6 (47:21):
Allen, and old qlit Bratler congrats someone year by the way,
it's Leslie. Yesterday you were talking about griefs and dreams
and the weirdness that surrounds that. Buckle up with me.
I promises dark but has a funny ish ending. But
in twenty eleven, my best friend from high school decided
to opt out okay, and it was a really dark
(47:42):
period because I wasn't even twenty one and it was
the first time I had dealt with someone that was
a friend passing away. And it's been almost fifteen years
and for a long time I kept having dreams about him,
and it was really sad initially, but it was similar
to rob situation, where you see the person in the
dream and you just kind of relieved when you wake
up that you're hasn't forgotten them, and it helped me
coute for a while. But I don't really believe in
(48:04):
an afterlife, although I kind of like to hope that
there is one. The closest thing I got to believing
in an afterlife was my friend that pass had a
very prefers sense of humor. So imagine my shock when
I got an email from his account six months after
he died. But it was a stam email because his
account got hacked to sell me penis enlargement pills, and
(48:24):
it was absolutely the kind of ridiculous thing he would
have sent me when he was still alive. I like
to think that if there isn't after life. That was
his way of cheering me up by somehow sending me
such an absurd email. Anyway, I love you boys by Oh.
Speaker 1 (48:39):
Well, that's a cliffhanger, there it is. Yeah, it has
Leslie's penis been in large. I should take advantage of
all those offers. I was like, how was that? Oh,
oh right, her penis. Didn't you get those emails grandma?
Or were they selling what?
Speaker 19 (48:57):
Right?
Speaker 1 (48:59):
Alan saw? Jenna Jamison is in a missionary position. All right,
thank you? She found the Tracy Lawrence all right, right,
all right? Any who, she is the Chubby Checker of porn.
(49:21):
Somebody said, I don't get that. Oh, she's done the
same thing over and every one I see. I mean,
isn't that the same for everyone?
Speaker 3 (49:30):
Though?
Speaker 1 (49:30):
That's in porn. Well, but you've really had to up
the ante now, you know. Yeah. My thing is there
are so many different kinds of pornography that it's actually
instrumental in letting you know. Because we've talked about this before,
you don't always know what you like, right, Your brain
will tell you what you like, and sometimes it's a
(49:50):
surprise because you don't even control over it, and you're
like Oh, I didn't know I was into that, but
my brain just told me that I'm into that now.
But it's also instructive and that it tells you what
you very very much do not like, and that can
filter out into your real life. You know, there's this
They talk about it all the time, that there's this
epidemic of young men who because they were weaned on
(50:16):
a steady diet of pornography. Yes, I know, I know,
I miss you because they were weaned steady diet of pornography,
that they have a real hard time maintaining intimate relationships.
And women will complain that guys bring all that porny
crap into real life, but it also is useful in
(50:36):
telling you what you don't like.
Speaker 8 (50:39):
This is a lot of that porny stuff that shows
up in real life. It's just gonna happen anyway on
a boredom. It's at a certain point. It's not necessarily
because you saw it in porn right, like I think
you just if you're.
Speaker 1 (50:50):
Doing the same thing. Yeah, but there's all the same years.
But there's a well I'm not talking I'm talking about
young single men. Oh okay, yeah, no, listen, there only
so many holes in the human body. So you know
if they knew it's through Chris Rock sent it. If
you're in it for a long time, you figure it out.
They're talking about young the single. I see what you're
(51:11):
saying now, yeah, yeah, So so you start there in
not someplace you would strive to get to. Yes, always
with consent.
Speaker 20 (51:19):
I'm gone the porn stars, so as I can screw
the ladies cocaine on me and ride around in my
Mercedes lesbians and get thoss and women in their eighties.

I'm ashamed of myself. The Elling Car Show on one

Of course, you can listen on the iHeartRadio app and

(54:13):
If you listen to us on the app, tell me
where you do it. There's a whole lot of people
who have checked in from points around North America. Bill
listens in Rockville, Queensland, Australia. Just got a new photo
by the way, from our friend Jeff, who is currently
visiting some family there in Australia, and he has been
tagging places all around the continent with alan Cochro stickers.
(54:39):
And I've been posting those when I get a minute
at the Alancanchho facebook page. But thank you to anybody
who tags. Rachel was in Memphis, and you know, people
like to do that and I appreciate it. Todd listens

in Bardstown? Can t Have you ever been in Bardstown? No, sir,
(55:02):
you know it used to be called Shakespeare Phil Hmmm interesting,
Oh boy, swinging a mess good and you can leave
us messages to you.
Speaker 16 (55:14):
Guys were talking about the monkeys that escaped and the
one lady shot one because she was worried about her kids.
Speaker 6 (55:19):
And I don't know the situation.
Speaker 10 (55:20):
Maybe he was.
Speaker 16 (55:21):
Charging at her kid or whatever.
Speaker 6 (55:22):
But I'm with Rob.
Speaker 16 (55:23):
And that second one, the preacher, the Man of God
quote unquote, who.
Speaker 24 (55:27):
Took out one of quote unquote God's creatures from a tree.
Speaker 16 (55:31):
That's disgusting.
Speaker 1 (55:32):
Man.
Speaker 16 (55:32):
The description of it falling out and oh and then
it made it a little ways.
Speaker 6 (55:36):
And then it wasn't dead yet.
Speaker 16 (55:37):
That's gross. It was up in a tree. It wasn't
hurting anybody. So people thought they were infected. You know
what is infected raccoons.
Speaker 6 (55:43):
And stuff running around with rabies apossums. When I see one,
I'm not like, oh, I better go shoot this.
Speaker 11 (55:49):
It's infected with rabies.
Speaker 16 (55:51):
Nah f that noise man, man of God.
Speaker 4 (55:53):
My ass.
Speaker 1 (55:54):
Wow, he's right. He's taking more of an all creatures
great and a small approach to the situation. I gotta
tell you, I'm surprised that someone has that perspective. Usually
people are so paranoid and so prepared to shoot first
and ask questions later that when it comes to what
they believe to be an infected monkey, it might not
(56:17):
be the way I would have gone. But I fully
understand people taking that action. But good on him, I
guess doesn't care for that. He thinks that that pastor
you know who killed I think they got all three
of those monkeys now, But I still pastor that shot
the one out of the tree. He didn't like that
at all. But even the one like protecting my kids.
Speaker 8 (56:38):
I mean, if you're in your car and it's on
your hood, if you're outside and you can't get away, okay,
But when you're in your backyard and you could just
be like, hey, kids, get inside, I don't know.
Speaker 1 (56:51):
I don't think you'd kill it. Yeah, but then how
long are you gonna Are you gonna stay in your
house while a monkey is stalking the perimeter?
Speaker 11 (56:57):
Like no.
Speaker 8 (57:00):
You make that call to the They're all looking for
this thing. They want to shoot it. Fine, that's up
to them. But I don't know.
Speaker 1 (57:09):
I just Rob, what gun is an unfired gun? It's
a very good question. That's no con right. Good is
having a gun if you never get to use it.
People are just like I have it. I hope I
never have to eat. You can't wait to use it. Stop,
you have a boner you're waiting to use this thing.
(57:33):
Speaking of ducks, Cody sent me a piece of video Facebook.
I saw this and thought of Rob. If you're familiar
with Eider ducks, I saw this day on the last
stream here. Eider ducks large sea ducks with incredibly soft
down which they pluck from their own bodies to line
their nests. But their sound is interesting and I'd love
(57:58):
to play it for you if I can get the
sound of work. Very impressed with it by the sounds
of things. Oh my, oh wow, Jenna Jamison in the nineties,
Oh my, oh, Eider ducks.
Speaker 4 (58:14):
How about that?
Speaker 1 (58:14):
Oh yeah, I wish that's what they sounded like next
to my house. And then Jeremiah another chapter in the
Duck saga. He has sent another AI song now I
haven't listened to this, we're gonna hear it for the
first time together. He sent us a song called Duck Nuts.
Now Rob lives.
Speaker 25 (58:34):
Next door, and Rob is a guy who could really
use a wind, the kind of guy who you could
always depend on, who's.
Speaker 1 (58:41):
Only real sounds like Remember Bobby Gaylor the Sunscreen song.
Remember in the Nights where Sunscreen Robins was Jimmy Buffin, and.
Speaker 25 (58:51):
If you asked him what was going on, he'd laugh
and tell you about when he got a finger in
his buttthole while wrestling. But recently, if you ask him
what's going on and he says, it's the ducks, and
he means it too.
Speaker 1 (59:05):
I know it sounds absurd, but the poor.
Speaker 25 (59:08):
Guy is nuts and all you have to do is
ask him.
Speaker 1 (59:14):
He'll tell you the same thing. It's the ducks. And
I mean I hear the ducks. We all hear the ducks.
There's nothing wrong with here in the ducks. The ducks
are there. But the way that Rob hears.
Speaker 25 (59:26):
The ducks, you think that the duck and sometimes he
goes out there and he's hell.
Speaker 1 (59:31):
That's why I up here. People are putting together some
real demented versions of songs. I love it. Yeah, I
like this new spoken word ambient vibe that some of
our contributors are leaning into. First one's much better. The
first song is Rob Ducks Yeah, which I'm still sending
to people. By the way, that's that one. Hit it
out of the park with that one. So this one
(59:53):
is good.
Speaker 8 (59:53):
I forgot all about the wrestling thing and then I
told that story. I'm like, when did they have someone
stick of finger and finger.
Speaker 1 (59:58):
Your but all resting right, it must be true, Rob,
It's right there in the AI generated song. Oh, it's
definitely true. We talked about it. It's the ducks are
the way that Rob. Here's the ducks.
Speaker 25 (01:00:08):
You think that Rob lives in the duck and sometimes
he goes out there and he's telling.
Speaker 2 (01:00:12):
At the ducks and I'm like, Rob, what are you doing?
Speaker 1 (01:00:14):
And He's like, it's the ducks. And I'm like, all right, Bob,
I mean, if you have no way that Rob, there's
a lot going on not going on, right. It lacks
the genius simplicity of Rob hates ducks. It's right to
the point.
Speaker 26 (01:00:30):
Hey, Rob, hey, dugs they quack call hey Rob, Hey,
they quack call success.
Speaker 1 (01:00:42):
He said, Yo, my neighbors got dugs. They be fucking
nor dead. But what big ihead enough? And every time
I sleep, maybe fucking up storm. Every time I leave here,
the duck's going off.
Speaker 2 (01:00:53):
All I hear is quack quackquag like a Donald Duck
ad lib.
Speaker 1 (01:00:57):
Quack quackquack like a Donald Duck ad lib. It's there,
it in there. And that's my favorite line, like a
Donald Duck ad lib. Because if you have a cartoon
animal rob and anthropomorphic animal who's talking, he's only going
(01:01:17):
to speak English or quack, right, So an ad lib
that could just as easily be English, but in this
case a quack like a Donald Duck AdLib. And now
I feel I've over explained it. So anyway, thank you.
Speaking of I don't want to hide Jeremiah's light under
a bushel basket. He reworked the Monroe Ficus song so
(01:01:42):
that it pronounces fightus properly. That can only improve it.
Remember were talking about that, like with these AI things,
you really have to spell a lot of things phonetically
for it to do it properly. But he did Monroe
Ficus at Monroe from too close for comfort, of course,
and he did a and this song is called The
(01:02:03):
Enigma of Monroe Ficus, which was Jim J. Bullock's character's name.
Speaker 27 (01:02:10):
Hey, it's Eric in Penhills, Pennsylvania. This message is about
two things you'd recently talked about. First, you talked about
bureau chiefs updating you on their location and also the
persistence of Monroe. Well, when I moved from Pensacola, Florida
to Monroeville, Pennsylvania ten years ago, I let you know
about my location change, and you and Erica both said
Monroe as soon as I said Monroeville, Pennsylvania. So bits
(01:02:33):
come and go, But I don't know if this one's
ever gonna go way completely.
Speaker 1 (01:02:36):
Oh yeah, it ebbs and flows man. But again, you
got to nail the inflection. Eric's doing a weird thing there. Yep,
you got Monroe Monroe just the Ted night. So yeah,
I Erica and I am.
Speaker 8 (01:02:54):
Monroe Monroe, and the emphastus is very important, that impression.
Speaker 1 (01:03:01):
Do you want to hear the Enigma of Monroe Ficus
two point zero? Yes, it's still got fair warning. It's
still got that same kind of dark, creepy ambient spoken
word vibe.
Speaker 8 (01:03:13):
That's all right, I think because it was the mispronunciation
that had me off on it.
Speaker 1 (01:03:17):
Yes, and I think this time the male and female
voices have been transposed, so it's the woman and the
guy going back and forth.
Speaker 3 (01:03:29):
Monroe, You're a peculiar one, aren't you.
Speaker 10 (01:03:41):
Monroe. Oh, you're gonna get used to me. Eventually, You're
not getting rid of me. It's not gonna happen.
Speaker 21 (01:03:52):
No, no, no, the assistance of Monroe Ficus.
Speaker 1 (01:04:00):
Monroe Ficus an enigma of a man.
Speaker 10 (01:04:04):
To this day, nobody knows what exactly it is that
you do.
Speaker 1 (01:04:10):
Some say you might be a second I mean it
really could be. I mean, you know when they'll do
like an SNL bit where they'll take something super jaunty
and they'll turn it into a horror film. That's kind
of like the vibe of this. You know. The character
on that show. By the way, Mike, who is one
of our bureau chieves, he's a part of the ESPN organization.
(01:04:31):
He goes, I know you're not on Twitter anymore, so
you probably missed this. But add one more check to
the November eleventh calendar, Rob because it's Veterans Day of course. Yeah,
yesterday marked the one year anniversary of Rob here on
the show. It was also the three year anniversary of
(01:04:53):
my vasectomy.
Speaker 10 (01:04:54):
Huh.
Speaker 1 (01:04:55):
And it was the forty fifth anniversary yesterday of Too
Close for Comfort Oh no kidding, the show from which
Monroe Monroe is pulled. Yes, forty five years ago November
the eleventh, nineteen eighty is when that premiere with Ted
Knight and Nancy Do.
Speaker 8 (01:05:12):
So it also marks your first deer strike. Shut up, Rod,
I'm just thinking the things for that day. I know
that one's at the very bottom of the list.
Speaker 1 (01:05:24):
By the way, you might not.
Speaker 8 (01:05:26):
Maybe you'll celebrate it once you end up out of
this situation. You know, new car. You know, like, if
this didn't happen, that wouldn't happen, and that puts you
in this place for this to happen.
Speaker 1 (01:05:35):
So you celebrate it because without the deer, your butterfly
effect nonsense.
Speaker 8 (01:05:40):
Never would have had that Lamborghini suv you've been craving.
Speaker 1 (01:05:45):
Yeah, that's true. See yeah, Lamborghini suv. Yeah. Ah, they
know me, don't they.
Speaker 11 (01:05:50):
Yes?
Speaker 1 (01:05:51):
Yeah. You know a lot of sitcom theme songs had
lyrics back then, not this one. They would just show
you the stars name on the televiion Ted Night, that
Nancy do so with Ted Night. It's unnecessary. You don't
need lyrics. You just got to see it's Ted Night.
You're like, I'm watching this. Yeah, Deborah van Vaulkenberg and
(01:06:14):
Lydio Cornell, and then Jim J. Bullock shows up. I think, Oh,
I thought they put him in the credits. Maybe season
two they put him in the credits. Anyway, Yeah, nineteen
eighty you're talking about Monroe Monroe forty five years ago yesterday. Yes,
thank you Mike for that, because obviously I would not
have caught that Monroe. But as I'm quite sure, we
(01:06:38):
are probably the only radio program in North America talking
about frigging too close for Comfort on any type of
regular basis, especially relevant around here. They come up once
in a while when someone's like, oh, what the hell
was the name of that show?
Speaker 8 (01:06:52):
The woman the guy from Caddy Shack, Ted Knight, what
was the name of his show?
Speaker 1 (01:06:56):
Too Close for Comfort? That would be the other time
someone might mention it also regular recurring, Yeah, deep dive.
The very last season of that show, they rebranded it
the Ted Night Show. Oh but the same cast, I believe,
the same cast.
Speaker 8 (01:07:09):
Boy, That seems like a weird thing. To do when
you're already into a run of a show, doesn't I know.
Speaker 1 (01:07:14):
I think maybe it was a last, last ditch effort
or something. But yeah, and that got canceled real fast,
unless I'm wrong on that. The Ted Night Show, Oh
it was, oh I see his Yeah, too Close for
Comfort was retitled the Ted Night Show. It was about
(01:07:36):
the owner of an escort service. Wait what what what?
Speaker 8 (01:07:42):
He played a different guy, so it wasn't too close,
So they just they did a different show.
Speaker 1 (01:07:48):
It was spun off from a show called Busting Loose.
Don't I vaguely remember that in the late seventies. That's
another Jamison. Yeah, bust and Loose sere for Lucy. Yeah. Anyway,
and you know, my brain goes to, I wonder what dumb,
obscure show another program might be doing a deep dive on.
(01:08:10):
It's not like we do a deep dive on this, right.
It begins, it ends with Monroe and it's dumb. But
it just makes me laugh. And that is a proper
name that you'll see a lot just in your omal life.
But you got to figure, what if there's a show somewhere,
like there's a really popular show in Seattle and on
a regular basis. They're talking about Manimal or Hardcastle and McCormick, right,
(01:08:35):
but there's no Monroe on those shows.
Speaker 8 (01:08:38):
Talk about eighties kids shows like you can't do that
on television, yeah, right with Alanis Morisset's young Alanis Morrisset
and I think Ryan Reynolds, were you young enough to
watch that show?
Speaker 1 (01:08:51):
We didn't have cable, so I didn't see Nickelodeon. I
would see it at my grandmother's house. She had cable,
and we went to her house for dinner after church
every Sunday. So the only time I ever saw cable
television was at my grandmother's And so I was familiar
with Nickelodeon. I mean it's been around for like forty
plus years. Yep. It was called something else. I think
precursor in Nickelodeon had a different name. But no, so
(01:09:12):
we didn't have cable, so I didn't grow up watching Nickelodeon.
So I had to pretend like I knew what my
peers were talking about. When they were like, oh, did
you see you can't do Oh they got slimed, I'm like, yeah,
they got slimed. Oh that slime. I was like Steve
Carrell in the forty year Old Virgin right when he's talking. Yeah,
boobs are like bags of sand. I know all about
(01:09:33):
those things. Yeah, that was me with cable television. Do
you remember a show late eighties a girl was an alien.
She was like a half alien half human. Small wonder. Nope,
that she was a robot. She was a robot kids
TV or a regular show. It was like a regular show.
Speaker 8 (01:09:50):
Was this sitcom was on for a few years. She
was a she was like she was. It was like
a teenage age girl. She was half an alien, and
it was like out of this world. That was I
remember watching that. When you talk about obscure shows, I
remember that was a show that I would not miss.
Speaker 1 (01:10:09):
I saw that show every week. I remember that. That
was a show where the mom was in Saturday night fever.
That's what I remember about. They were trying this actress,
am Donna Pascal. They were trying to make her a
thing like she had her own sitcom for a while.
She was you know, she's done even Stevens early Shilah
(01:10:29):
buff Okay, but yeah, out of this world. I haven't
thought of that show.
Speaker 8 (01:10:34):
You just said obscure eighties shows, and I was thinking
and it popped into my head. I haven't thought of
that show, and probably since it was on. Yeah, Ethel
was there an Ethel Garland.
Speaker 1 (01:10:44):
Ethel Monroe Monroe Ethyl Earth? All all right, now, I
gotta look this up. Earlyn Carr show on one hundreds
call the alley Cock.
Speaker 11 (01:11:00):
Show, Cops, Cops?
Speaker 6 (01:11:02):
Is that with the nix?
Speaker 19 (01:11:03):
Yes two one six seven eight one double oh seven
or one three four eight one double o seven?
Speaker 1 (01:11:29):
Why has our clockmen flashing all day? I was looking
at that.
Speaker 8 (01:11:32):
I don't know what that means, started to know how
to reset it, and it started a little before noon.
Speaker 1 (01:11:37):
It used to be or an oak tree. It would
do that when there had been an eas or something
like that, but I don't think anything like that went out,
So I was curious. I don't know, not that it
really changes anything. I'm just curious, and it's probably just
like everything else that broken. Thinking out loud, Alan, I
think Nickelodeon was called pin Wheel originally. I know what
(01:11:58):
you're thinking of. It was always nickelum A. Pinwheel was
the very first show that they had on, and I
think the whole thing might have started on a Columbus. Actually,
Nickelodeon started in the late seventies and it was just
called like Kids Satellite channel or something, and I'm pretty
sure Pinwheel was the very first show that they had
(01:12:20):
on it because again as a little kid, my grandma
had cable television, and you know, these early cable channels,
they didn't have nationwide clearance, so you'd get them regionally,
or you'd get them not only regionally, but at certain
hours of the day. Right, he wasn't all remember, I mean,
(01:12:40):
you can go to the late eighties and remember when
they first signed the Fox Network on, they didn't have
programming twenty four to seven. They had like three shows.
The Fox Network started on Sunday nights. That was all
they had. They had married with Children, and they had
the Simpsons, and they had like a bunch of crap
shows that went away pretty quickly. They only had the
Fox Network started on Sunday nights only, and then the
(01:13:03):
rest of the week it was just like syndicated stuff
that like local affiliates would run and they built it
up from there. But had they not had married with
children and the Simpsons, which were married with children, was
like a runaway hit. And I think the Simpsons got
going pretty quickly, not at the Gate but and Rob
(01:13:24):
fun fact, guess which one of those shows is still on?
Oh boy, the Simpsons. Yes, the Simpsons are still on. God,
I got that right. I was clicking around. I don't
know what it was that was clicking around the other night,
because sometimes i'll go through the streamers. If I have
an hour to watch television, I'll go I don't know,
(01:13:46):
it's too much, like there's a couple shows that I'll watch,
but barring that, I'll just put on Hulu Live and
I'll click around, like it's frigging cable in the nineteen
nineties and somebody was showing Merry with Children. It's so
or one of those channels the show's old shows, it's
still funny. I wasn't I don't know if I wasn't
(01:14:08):
allowed to watch it. I mean, I would have been
frigging seventeen when that show was on, so I'm sure
it wasn't that. It's just my parents weren't watching it.
We had one TV. My parents weren't watching it, and
so I wasn't watching it. So I never really it
was set in Chicago, but that was just the exteriors, right.
There was never like any reference otherwise to that really,
(01:14:29):
but never watched Mary with Children now and I click
it on occasionally, you know, once every five years. I'm like,
it's funny, very funny. Christina Applegate's Foxy, Oh God, I
loved her. Katie Sagal's great loved her too, But no,
I never really got into that show.
Speaker 3 (01:14:48):
Al.
Speaker 1 (01:14:49):
Do you remember a show called down to Earth Early
days of TBS, an angel who was in nineteen twenties
flapper girl run over by a trolley, helping to raise
a widower's family. I don't remember that, oh, but I
do love that. Somebody else mentioned It's Your Move with
Jason Bateman, and I'm a huge Bateman fan, and so
that comes up pretty frequently. You know, this guy did
(01:15:11):
a million shows in the eighties, But no, I don't
remember down to Earth. Right between You and Rob. Three
obscure eighties shows Wizards and Warriors with Jeff Conaway. Remember
that guy, the late Jeff Conaway. He got big on Taxi. Yes, uh,
mister Wizard with a guy from Time Bandits and one
(01:15:33):
about an electrical superhero. I never missed, mister Wizard. That
was Nickelodeon too, I guess, yeah, mister, but this sounds
like a show called mister Wizard. Okay, I was just
talking with a science show. Yeah, yeah, mister Wizard. I
loved that show. Well. I liked that he wasn't too
hoity toity about things, right. He could have called himself
commander Wizard. He could have called himself Wizard. Yes, doctor wizard.
(01:16:01):
I mean he probably had some kind of He was
like the precursor to Bill Nye as far as television went, right,
he was great. Yeah, Don Herbert. I don't know why
I remember that that was his name, but that was
his name, and I think that was another show that
started regionally, right. He was like a guy who worked
at a radio station in Chicago. Mister Wizard started on
the NBC affiliate in Chicago, and then they beamed it
(01:16:26):
out and so that's what we got. I remember.
Speaker 8 (01:16:30):
He was like he was just north of being a
dick to everybody all the time. He'd be like, what
do you think is going to happen if I mix
these two things together? One of these is baking soda,
the other one is vinegar. What do you think is
going to happen? And the kid be like, I don't
know nothing, no, stupid, It's going to cause a reaction.
It's gonna look like a volcano. That's what they put
(01:16:50):
inside of these things when you have science projects. It
was every time. It was so funny.
Speaker 1 (01:16:54):
They did a parody on SNL with Bill Hayter, remember
that where he plays mister Wizard and he's the whole
vibe is him being like, no pay attention. I don't remember.
And it was because people picked up on the fact
that Don Herbert was a little prickly. I gave up
on SNL for a very long time. I finally gave
(01:17:16):
up on it for good. I felt like one of
the last people on the planet watching it every week,
and that was up until a couple years ago. And
I think what drove me away was every week it
turned into a host that I didn't know any of
their work because they're keeping them young, I get it,
and a musical guest I had never heard of, Yeah,
And I was like, I'm out. I mean, you know,
(01:17:37):
and I can't imagine rob that they missed me.
Speaker 8 (01:17:41):
I think they miss every single person that's not watching
that show. Oh, it's a very very difficult show to
keep going for as long as they have.
Speaker 9 (01:17:49):
No right Lauren electrons good and when we rub up
against something. Sometimes those tiny electrons move. Now, everyone, take
a balloon. Take a balloon. Now, what I watch you
to do is rub that balloon on yourself. Here you go,
You get on your sweater, in your arm. You can't
even rub your partner. You go, very good, Okay, go ahead, yeah,
(01:18:11):
very good, get worked up at science.
Speaker 4 (01:18:14):
Very good.
Speaker 1 (01:18:16):
All right. And of course because their kids going through puberty,
allegedly they're like rubbing it on their crotches and boobs.
Speaker 9 (01:18:22):
And there Chris, Chris, Chris, Claudette Claudette. Guys, guys, that's
enough enough of the balloons, okay, en, enough enough.
Speaker 1 (01:18:32):
How do we say we're doing a sketch of the eighties?
What's that? How do we say we're gonna do a
sketch from the eighties? Let's use the name Claudette. There
you go. But I mean Jesse Eisenberg was a host.
But this is back when like Hayter was still in
the cast, and it's the same Pedrad and Abby Elliott
was still in the show. AnyWho, Fun, Fun Fun. If

Speaker 4 (01:19:08):
I've heard catch up podcasts.
Speaker 28 (01:19:10):
I've heard Festive glory Hole several times now. Great song,
absolute Christmas banger. But now that magic has flipped to
Christmas music, I'm really hoping it's time for you to
bust out old timey Christmas. I'm desperately need to hear it.
Speaker 1 (01:19:29):
Hey, you haven't played it yet this year? Only time
a Christmas? Yeah, no, because I wanted to give Festive
glory Hole a lot of breathing room. Only Timey Christmas
has been around. I mean, I did that song ten
years ago, and I wanted to give Festive glory Hole.
It's due as possibly the Air Apparent rob right. Although
(01:19:51):
I didn't create that song. I created only Timey Christmas. Alan.
Do you remember a show called Mantis? I do remember that.
It was another show that was like canceled it there
one season. I don't remember that. That was the guy
in the Oh God, the guy's in the Marvel Cinematic Universe.
Now he's in uh he's in the New Captain America movies.
He was a paraplegic that put a suit on that
(01:20:14):
let him go out and fight crime. Nantis was an
acronym for something, so it was a comedy. It was
sci fi just joking. Oh uh no, it wasn't anyway.
Here you are, sir well, it looks like a sign
to put all our glad.
Speaker 29 (01:20:34):
Rags again, although this whole thing sounds like a bunch
of hog them and frim flam to me, say, newsboy,

Getting easy with the dame if she spouts off wise

That gets my goat.

Wax your mustache and put up your dukes.
Speaker 30 (01:21:29):

Let's go on a toot, We'll pitch you dog.
Speaker 30 (01:21:36):
Don't blow your happy doe on a floozie with busted chops.
Slip her, make your two and give her the old

Speaker 1 (01:21:56):
Oh, by golly, have an holy.
Speaker 29 (01:21:59):
Time Christmas this year and the risk of the wrong
right er, I'm gonna head off myself, say kind which way.
Speaker 1 (01:22:08):
The old all right? Anyway, it's holy but a goodie,
an oldie, timy, but a goodie that people are telling
me that there was an e A S that went
out earlier today, okay during Stansbury show that the SB
why it's flashing. I was in here the whole time.
I didn't hear it. The gimblet let let take the
blitza reference, very politically incorrect. Great, this came from Rob.
(01:22:34):
It's a fantastic drink. I don't think I've ever had
a gimlet. Oh it's great. It's a martini but with gin.
I like the phrase gimblet eyed. I like that literary device,
but I uh a gamblet. I dame over here. I've
never had a gimlet. It's I like gin. Is it
a it's a gin drink? Right, it's it's a martini basically,
I think, but with gin. Right, isn't that what a
(01:22:55):
gimlet is?
Speaker 8 (01:22:56):
But no, no, no, no, this is the gimlet has lime
in it, right, But it is a based drinks, right people.
Speaker 1 (01:23:02):
Can you can get a vodka gimblet? I've heard you know,
that's the main spirit is. But I would rather have
gin than vodka. Yes, yeah, it's lime, I forgot. I
get them all mixed up something gin, lime, juice and
simple serrp Oh that's all it is. Yeah, Oh, I
thought there was something else. I didn't realize it was
like a two recipe thing with a lime. Speaking of gimlets, now,
(01:23:25):
straight from the dubious Studies file comes the story that
was going around that binge drinking could be an indicator
of success later in life. Binge drinking in your youth
may lead to career success in later life. You know,
they talk about how a lot of alcoholics are manufactured
in college. And I didn't really drink. I always say
(01:23:48):
I didn't drink until I was twenty six when I
got into radio. I could count on one hand the
times I drank in four years of college. So it
wasn't like it was a full on teetotaler. But I
almost never drank. Like I had a friend. Her boyfriend
bought a bar and she was helping him manage it,
(01:24:10):
so we'd go in on a random Tuesday night. Was
by the Lincoln Park Zoo. It's long gone and there
was nobody there, and she would just get behind the bar.
You know, we're drinking whatever. But as a general rule
in college, I didn't drink. It just wasn't my thing.
I got hammered and puked all night when I was fifteen,
and I said, f this. But I had a lot
(01:24:31):
of friends, as a lot of people do. You might
be one of those friends who spent the better part
of college blacked out. Now, I think it's a little
bit of a misleading headline because I think what they
mean is it's a really good way to learn how
to socialize with people, alcohol being the social lubricant and
(01:24:54):
that so it's not really the drinking that makes sure
that you're a success later on, but it is a
device to help you socialize.
Speaker 8 (01:25:00):
Oh damn it, I was holding I hope that there
was a chance. I know I'd been a hinge drinker
for most of my life.
Speaker 1 (01:25:08):
Getting ready to take off Rob any day now. Yeah,
while alcohol has been confirmed to cause a wide variety
of long term side effects, there is a correlation between
heavy drinking in your youth. That's the thing that's interesting
to me, is they the heavy drinking. You know, Listen,
you can say to anybody, oh, yeah, we go to
(01:25:29):
the bar and you have a good time with your friends,
And that's differ than heavy drinking. The ability to advance
young people's careers by breaking down social inhibitions and reducing awkwardness. Yeah,
a lot of this hinges on the fact that a
lot of people are feel awkward or weird or whatever.
(01:25:51):
That was never a thing for me. I was like
awkward situations. And so listen, maybe that is still ahead
of us, Rob, Maybe our career success is still ahead
of us. Let's go, because boy, when I started drinking
at twenty six, I tried to make up for lost time. Boy,
I mean I was drunk a lot once between like
(01:26:15):
twenty six and thirty three. I never hit stop, once
I hit play.
Speaker 8 (01:26:19):
So I just went, I'm drinking less now than I
have probably in my entire life.
Speaker 1 (01:26:25):
Yeah. Well, because this is a very social job, and
so it's like when we're out that's normally what we're doing.
I'm not a sitting at home and drinking guy, you know,
go home and have a beer. I have a I
have a beverage fridge in my garage that's full of booze,
but I couldn't tell the last time I pulled anything
out of it. I would go home and have a cocktail.
Speaker 8 (01:26:47):
I have really that in quite sometimes like a gin gimlet,
like a gin yeah, like yeah, no, I would.
Speaker 1 (01:26:51):
I would have a Martinez. I would have a Manhattan.
I would. I'm not a side coss ali. I used
to love going to like, you know, bars and testing
the bar center, just asking for a really old timey
drink allout of Tom Collins. Hey, how about I don't
make something up? What's in a black Betty lamb? Huh?
A lot of lamb of lamb?
Speaker 3 (01:27:13):
Yes?
Speaker 1 (01:27:13):
And I think you said leg of lamb, you know,
like on those bottomless a lot of these places you do, like, uh,
the whacked out bloody Mary bars. You know, Hey, how
do you like birthday cake and bacon and like a lamb? Ellen?
How are you doing all the Christmas stuff and not
spotlighting Brenda Lee and her filthy filthy mouth well that sure,
(01:27:35):
I was assuming that would just show up eventually. Brenda
Lee and her f and pie Rob was the one
that brought this to my attention last season. You know,
she was a teenager when she recorded it, and it's
a considered a classic. They play it all the time
over there on Magic when they're doing the Christmas thing,
but it is it was rare to hear explotives in
those early songs. Yeah, a little squeak in there too,
(01:28:02):
But don't know where the debate is. Like, everyone's like,
oh no, she's saying punkin No, she's not. I've never
heard that punky after the the explotives. We're not really
flying in contemporary music back then. No, she got to
give her credit. And there's a distillery down near Canton
that makes a blood orange gin cool, oh god for you? Yeah,
(01:28:26):
all right, Well something to consider now, if you've ever
heard Rob talk about the places near him, all the
better if it's a locally sourced blood orange right, uh,
spirit right right, I'm not I'm not.
Speaker 8 (01:28:42):
Poo pooing the local spirits in the least, not my point, right,
But if you're a full service bar, have a full
have a good list of those things.
Speaker 1 (01:28:56):
You know, Oh, we don't have gray goose. What do
you mean I have gray Goose?
Speaker 8 (01:28:59):
All right, I'll find I think I want kettle one. Then, oh,
we have a vanilla kettle one. I don't want vanilla
kettle one. I want a kettle one martini. We have
kettle three. Have you ever had that before?
Speaker 1 (01:29:11):
Yeah?
Speaker 8 (01:29:11):
We Well, we got a place next door that makes vodka,
so we get it from them for the plane stuff.
Speaker 1 (01:29:17):
Damn it? So blood Orange Gin all right? I like
the singer Blood Orange, big fan of M. Check that
out when you're down there. I try the Blood Orange
next time I get to North Canton, M. Maybe next
time I'm down at Northeast Factory director Robin north Campton there,
visiting all the locations, just to stay on top of it,
(01:29:38):
you know what. I like to poke my head in
and I go away, and everybody looks at me and go,
hell is this guy that's me on cock still not
a big box store? Well done you? They go? Who
I go, el Coxen you commercials like fifteen years whatever?
Cool man? No, I'm kidding, you're very nice. I think
big gulps huh ling car show on one.
Speaker 18 (01:30:01):
Do you think this guy's going to do one thing,
then does another thing, then a third thing.
Speaker 26 (01:30:08):
Happens, and it's a bummer because you.
Speaker 15 (01:30:10):
Kind just want him to keep doing that middle thing.
Speaker 1 (01:30:14):
It's all very frustrating.
Speaker 31 (01:30:16):
The Erntox show WMMS more money here for about ten minutes.
Speaker 1 (01:30:28):
Another one thousand dollars courtesy of the Buzzard bookie. Last
keyword of the day around five thirty and then Tomorrow
and Friday. Last couple of days for to win for
a while, but a lot of chances with RMG and
Dan and me. One thousand dollars by the way, which
apparently is going to go a long way. At brown Stadium,
(01:30:52):
there's eleven dollars tickets to see Miles Garrett and Lamar
Jackson battle it out on a football field. And that's
no but he can't well when somebody was pointing out
it's cheaper. The tickets are cheaper than the concessions. Cheeseburger
is thirteen dollars, the stadium nachos will cost you twelve.
You can buy a ticket for the Browns game on
(01:31:14):
Sunday for eleven dollars. That's the Browns playing the former
Browns like it usually should be a game that people
want to be at I'll probably put you out in
the parking lot, but still cares being a hot dog,
still more expensive at fourteen dollars. I had no idea
the concessions were that cheap. A thirteen dollar cheeseburger, I
(01:31:34):
had no idea they were that cheap. Is that cheap?
So I get the point that they're trying to make. Yeah,
but everything is crazy priced at the stadium now icy
at a stadium.
Speaker 3 (01:31:42):
Now.
Speaker 1 (01:31:42):
I'm not singling them out. I'm just saying, that's the
one that's here. Twelve dollars, nachos beering a hot dog
for fourteen dollars. It sounds frigging reasonable these days anyway.
And everybody makes the old joke, right, I got pulled over.
He gave me a tiicket. It it was to a
Browns game. I thought I was getting pulled over today?
(01:32:05):
Did you really? Oh? I was screaming to get here.
I was running a little bit behind.
Speaker 8 (01:32:09):
Oh, you were flying and up by the airport. I
don't know what how this and then this dude lit
somebody else up like moments later or so. Yeah, I
was probably and I'm normally not a lead foot, but
I was in a hurry.
Speaker 1 (01:32:25):
I was probably fifteen miles an hour over where I
should have been. Yep. See, I do have a lead foot,
and I'm always trying to be not Last night when
the deer hit me, it's going twenty five. But I
have over the years, I have made a concerted effort.
Speaker 8 (01:32:39):
But I have a lead foot. Yeah, I tried not to,
and yeah I was. I saw him and I actually
came up on him. I was up by the airport
and just kind of came up behind a sheriff and
I was like, oh, and he just put on his blinker,
got over in the middle lane, and then of course
I slowed down and I got behind him, and then
he and it goes into the right lane, slows down
(01:33:01):
so I could tell he's looking at my plate, obviously
runs my plate, and then he gets into the middle
lane right behind me, gets into the right into the
left lane and passes me.
Speaker 1 (01:33:10):
He looks at me and just goes.
Speaker 8 (01:33:13):
And then two miles up ahead, I saw you had
somebody else pulled over. Why he didn't pull me over,
I have no like unless he saw the buzzard sticker.
Speaker 1 (01:33:23):
And he was like, hey, all right, I.
Speaker 8 (01:33:26):
Don't know what the hell else it could have been,
because I would have given me a ticket. Yeah, So sir,
if you're listening, thank you didn't need a ticket today.
Speaker 1 (01:33:35):
Or he's gonna send me one of the mail Maybe that's.
Speaker 4 (01:33:38):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (01:33:39):
I get those camera tickets too. I try to pay
attention when I'm in a part of town where I
know that they are, and then somehow I'll forget.
Speaker 10 (01:33:47):
Yeah.
Speaker 8 (01:33:47):
I don't think that would have happened here because that
would have been Ah, it's not an area they do that,
I don't think, right. So is seventy one North by
the airport. Yeah, the Berea Freeway. If you listen to
us on iHeartRadio, tell me where you do it. If
you're from out of state.
Speaker 1 (01:34:06):
We have hundreds and hundreds of people on our map
of these United States, and we have bureau chiefs in
Canada as well. Jeff is way out in Palmer, Alaska.
Cynthia listens in Surprise, Arizona. Andy is a bureau chief
in Topeka, Kansas. John listens in Glen Bernie, Maryland. And
(01:34:33):
Lisa z is up there in Buffalo, New York. Hey, Allen,
I can't help but think that maybe if you had
one more Celsius in your diet for the week, you
would have been awake and not hit that deer. I
don't know. I'm just saying, Monrob not to completely beat the.
Speaker 24 (01:34:49):
Piss out of it, because I know we don't need
too many ten Night references on the show.
Speaker 1 (01:34:55):
But you guys are keeping him alive in.
Speaker 27 (01:34:56):
A cotton ball's household?
Speaker 1 (01:34:58):
Does it?
Speaker 6 (01:34:58):
Ever?
Speaker 1 (01:34:58):
Since Monroe?
Speaker 27 (01:35:00):
When every one kids talk to me, another one calls,
I just say, meanwhile.
Speaker 1 (01:35:06):
Oh, yeah, he's I think a lot of people Ted
Knight wasn't the guy and the super Friends, right? I
thought that was like an urban legend. But was that
him that? I don't know. Meanwhile, back at the Hall
of Justice, I don't think, so what was it. I
thought that people thought that because it sounded like him,
but it wasn't. Oh maybe it was Ted Knight. Meanwhile
(01:35:29):
at the Hall of Justice, Okay, oh there you go.
I thought that we all thought that. But somebody's like, no,
now is somebody else? You learned something new every day? Indeed, Alan,
there's a great video called Mister Wizard is a Dick.
You gotta find it. Well I did find it.
Speaker 11 (01:35:45):
Oh good, Yes, Well, today I'm going to stick them
in you i'bout all the paper you wasted. Do you
count that as a fold because I already see that
it's not random. Don't jump the conclusions. Why isn't random?
I told you to write down random numbers? You mean,
not exactly?
Speaker 1 (01:36:04):
You can or can't? You none?
Speaker 6 (01:36:06):
Right?
Speaker 11 (01:36:07):
But for the wrong reason. Sounds logical, doesn't it. Well,
that's wrong, wrong, it's wrong.
Speaker 1 (01:36:12):
Wrong. This is why people liked him, because he didn't
treat kids like kids and trying to learn stuff. I mean,
you know, he's not being I get what people mean,
like the tone. You know, he's an older guy. He
was you know, this guy, the mister wizard at that time.
He was probably my age. For God's sake, he's probably
in his early fifties. There's nothing wrong with saying someone
is wrong. It was it was when he would do things.
Speaker 8 (01:36:34):
He would almost stop short of calling a kid a
dips rimp, right, It would just be like, yeah.
Speaker 1 (01:36:40):
Well you're teaching science, right, there's a right answer and
a wrong answer. Just look at him. How stupid are
you did? That's why that you eat? That's why people
some people love science. There's a right answer and a
wrong answer. They're not interested in philosophy and the you know,
outer fringes of of some of truth they want to
(01:37:02):
wan or a zero. And Don Herbert was telling the kids.
Speaker 11 (01:37:11):
Well, you call him fingers, I'll call them propellers. You
have to make the whole bigger than that.
Speaker 1 (01:37:16):
Obviously.
Speaker 11 (01:37:17):
Have you ever seen a slice banana before? You can't
blow off a baby's nursing nipple where you have one
of those inside your head?
Speaker 6 (01:37:23):
I do.
Speaker 11 (01:37:24):
Yeah, it's called a brain. Come on, come on, turn
it over here like that and pull it straight up.
No confidence in the science at all. You don't seem
to have a great deal of confidence.
Speaker 6 (01:37:34):
But I'm making back again.
Speaker 1 (01:37:35):
These are all good lessons for kids. Yeah, hey, have
some confidence. I'm here to teach you. You know he
didn't have to work with kids, did it? Because he
was trying to mold the next generation? Rob Boy, you're dumb. Meanwhile,
back at the whole legion of Doom, Ted Knight super Friends,
(01:38:00):
I did not know that. Still not convinced. Oh, Bill
Woodson and Ted Knight were the two guys. Okay, hold on.
Speaker 14 (01:38:12):
In the hollow dune which looks like a giant dar
Vader helmet again, adding more words to the title and
be coming.
Speaker 1 (01:38:18):
I don't need all that. I just want to know
so much. I just want to know, Dave, are you curious?
All right? Are you a fan of vodka Gimlin? You
know these fans of that? Yeah? Whoa, that's right. What
are you doing if you get a bad case? Ada
to yah, that's right, Alan, imagine if the deer was
(01:38:51):
filled with celsius instead of blood. By the way, I
wasn't dozing or anything like that. And uh, that's why
I was so frustrated last night, because I was and speeding.
I had just gotten off the highway and I had
opted to not get gas. I needed gas. You know,
my car tells me how many miles I have left.
I almost sent you a photo, Rob because I'm a
(01:39:12):
juvenile and I had sixty nine miles of gas. Nice, right,
But I'm like, no, and I gonna do that. You know,
my phone is just up on the thing on the
magnet holder or whatever. And I opted to not pull
into the gas station. This is when you do your wood.
It could have should have And had I done that,
obviously I would have missed the deer. But I was
(01:39:33):
going twenty five miles an hour probably at best, because
I'm starting to roll through my neighborhood. I'm not flying
through my neighborhood, and out of nowhere this deer off nowhere.
I didn't even have enough time to process what was happening.
It was just this massive crunch, thump or whatever, and
then this animal goes somersaulting over my hood. My son
(01:39:57):
of a bitch and again, could have been a lot work,
but the case I showed the picture on top of
the show. The consensus among our live streamers is that
this thing's gonna get totaled out. I'm seeing the same
everybody keeps saying the same.
Speaker 8 (01:40:10):
Thing, but they're using numbers like seven thousand, So I
don't know where, Like, I don't know how you estimate.
Speaker 1 (01:40:17):
I don't know either number. Yeah, I don't either. I mean,
it's you know, it's a it's a ten year old
car with two hundred twenty eight thousand miles on. That's
gonna be the hard part, I know. That's what I'm saying.
They're gonna go, Yeah, here's four grand, Okay, put it
on a new car. That's all it's gonna be. I
just didn't have that on my BINGO card. For the
end of twenty twenty five. But what good is making plans?
Speaker 3 (01:40:41):
Rob?
Speaker 8 (01:40:41):
Maybe the greatest thing ever. You'd be so happy in
a new vehicle and not having a diddle.
Speaker 1 (01:40:51):
Yeah yeah, Well I'm taking it in Monday morning, and
I know they're gonna call me and they're gonna go, Yeah,
you might just wanna hmmm, Okay. Leslie wants to know
how David Lee Roth would tell those kids how to
live their lives if he was teaching them. I live
my life like this tomorrow. Good advice, Thank you, Leslie.
(01:41:15):
You really can't reverse engineer a conversation with David Lee Roth. Dave,
what are the initials for Wisconsin University? There you go,
Thank you. Bell.
Speaker 24 (01:41:27):
Let me tell you about this game that's sweeping the nation.
It's not something that you'll find on next box, ok PlayStation.
It's the fastest one sport that no one's ever heard of.
Just give it a shot and I'm sure you fall
in love Biggleball addicting in fun.
Speaker 1 (01:41:46):
There's no joke, big boy, it couldn't be more apt
that a crazy whack song is being sung about pickleball.
There's no way to make it cool. One town over
for me. There and Rocky River. As with a lot
of other towns, they're having pickleball problems rob with people
(01:42:08):
complaining that it's loud, and you know, they keep calling
it the fastest girl export of the you know, it's
been around for the since the sixties. Pickleball, Right, there's
a reason that it pops up for six months once
a decade and then goes away just as quickly, because
if you live near one of these things, it's a
huge pain in the ass. It's loud, and all of
(01:42:31):
these kind of neighborhoods were like, well, we're going to
convert this into a pickleball court or this into a
pickleball court, and the people in these communities are beginning
to complain more and more. Gollia Sport geared toward boomers,
and they thought it was going to be Karen free.
Don't know how they arrived at that, but okay. Tensions
(01:42:52):
over pickleball flare nationwide, locally in places like Rocky River,
but all over the place. Rocky River paused their pickleball
program last week overquote ongoing behavioral concerns with adults with
adults with adults. Oh it's so sad. I mean, you know,
(01:43:14):
kids are gonna be kind of dicks, right right, Uh,
you are not gonna convince me. TikTok can pretend that
the kids are into pickleball. Nobody buys it. It's boomers
and all of these little towns. It was happening out
near me one of the parks that were like, we're
gonna these tennis courts aren't used as much anymore, We're
(01:43:34):
gonna convert into pickleball. And there had to be some
people that were like, yeah, except it's really loud. So
if you live anywhere near there, all you're gonna hear
is that noise, these plastic paddles and these oh god,
do you ever play yeah a hundred years ago, yeah,
like in college. Not regularly, but I have played it.
It's like the old Carlin bit, right, it's ping pong
(01:43:58):
standing on the table. But they keep trying. Like I said,
it's been around for decades and every few years it
comes back and they try to make it look hip,
and it ain't listen to anything to get you moving.
I got no problem with that. I think it's great outside,
you know, but they're like tiggleball.
Speaker 8 (01:44:16):
Yeah, I've never ever played. I've heard it's fun, but
it doesn't. I don't see how it's like drastically different
than anything else.
Speaker 1 (01:44:22):
That's what I'm saying. There's nothing not fun about it.
But as it blew up, I don't know why people
didn't see stuff like this coming. Yeah, it's loud, it's annoying. There's,
like I said, boomers in these communities complaining that they
can't get court time or whatever. Boise, Idaho, we have
bureau chiefs out there. They shut down all their pickleball
(01:44:44):
courts because people were filing lawsuits saying it was too
loud and people were playing late at night and using
vulgar language. Crisps. Yeah, I mean people were suing the
city of Boise over pickleball courts. Carlsbad, California. A woman
who lives next door is complaining, Hey it's really loud. Yeah,
(01:45:10):
San Diego, Arlington, Virginia. People filing lawsuits, people going to
city council meetings going hey, we don't want pickleball. You know, hey,
I got people peeing on my lawn. But that has
nothing to do with the pickleball. That'srue. Well, people get
drunk play pickball. Yeah, they're gonna wiz on somebody's lawn.
(01:45:31):
I guess pickleball's meteoric rise is how they refer to it.
More than nineteen million adults played in twenty twenty four.
I guess i'd put adults in air quotes. But yeah,
it's listen, Yeah, the kids are dipping into it for
something to do, but it's largely I have to think
(01:45:53):
it's the domain of people that are like just north
of you know, being kind of able to play tennis anymore. Man,
I could be projecting all this. I'm just saying that,
you know, Rocky River, for their part, says that the
pause is temporary, famous last words that they'll bring it
back next year with clearer rules, which I read as well,
(01:46:14):
just wait for everybody to forget about this and then
we'll move on to the next abomination in our community.
But yeah, they keep trying to make people think that
it's cool and that the kids are into it, and
it's like, nope, you say, no way, they're not. No,
it's retirees. And again, I am painting with a broadbrush,
but if you go near a pickleball court, you will
(01:46:36):
most likely see either real board kids or retirees who
are like, wow, I'm gonna keep moving, which again is great.
Anything it gets people moving is good. Orville, Ohio had
(01:46:56):
two courts and they built two more of this last summer,
and there are people playing on them all the time,
high school kids. Well yeah, in Orville, you're looking whatever
you can pick up and kicks, right, there's nothing else
to do there. I'm saying, that's a that's a different
variable if you're talking about, like you know, Rocky River
or these other places.
Speaker 8 (01:47:16):
They built one, or they were when we were when
I was last there, they were building one at Mount
Union right next to the dorms.
Speaker 1 (01:47:24):
Yeah, I get what I get having one on campus.
But I'll tell you what, the kids living in those
dorms are gonna be pissing and moaning once they hear
how loud that is all the time. Is it really loud? Well, yeah,
it's like plastic paddles and balls. Yeah, it's loud. Okay,
it kind of doesn't have the softness of tennis. It's
like a it's like a harder Do you get like
the grunts of female tennis? The Monica sellis Yeah, yeah,
(01:47:47):
I don't know about that. And as cotton Balls points
out too, these were all the same towns that like
cut all of their basketball nets off the hoop because
they were like, wait, don't the kids out there playing
mask and it attracts ruffians, pickleball toughs. Ah Allan, I
(01:48:09):
think your car is gonna get totaled out and you're
gonna be really disappointed by the offer. Oh, I think
both of those boxes are going to be checked. I'm
holding my breath. So I'll talk to Rich Klaibn once
they once I get more information, and we'll see what happens.
I know Ford doesn't do this the Dans anymore, but
if you need a thing, I mean they do trucks
(01:48:32):
and broncos.
Speaker 8 (01:48:32):
I'm sure he can get you whatever you want.
Speaker 1 (01:48:36):
That dude's the man. Yeah, we'll figure it out. You
know when people talk about skate parks there is it's
only a couple of years old. They like, just made
a skate park out by where I live in Bay
Village right. They're on Cahoon and Wolf. But for the
most part, I don't think that they get pretty strict
curfew there. I don't think that there's any problems with that.
(01:48:57):
A lot of the problems you're running into with kids
quote unquote now is e bikes. You talk to a
local cop and they're like rolling their eyes with all
the kids on the e bikes because they're like they're
super annoying. They just fly around the neighborhoods. But we're
also not going to be spending all day long giving
them tickets, right because depending on what community you're in,
their parents are going to flip their wigs. But all
(01:49:19):
you hear in my neighborhood flying through the neighborhood, I'm like,
a bicycle was the last bit of exercise you could
possibly get, and now you're on an e bike. Jac check.
You don't even have to pedal.
Speaker 8 (01:49:34):
He says Rocky. I occasionally work out at that Rocky
River rec Center. Definitely the elderly playing on the basketball
court for you with the pickleball, and they seem pretty crotchety.
Speaker 1 (01:49:46):
So well, that's affluent community. And what is David Lee
ross On like in a pickleball court? That's where I
was going for.
Speaker 8 (01:49:58):
It's out they're playing. Should have a David Lee Rothmonica
Cells match someday. Dave, Yeah, Dave, you just got that point. Congratulations.
Speaker 18 (01:50:12):
Whoa The Allen Cox Show on one hund.
Speaker 1 (01:50:20):
Called The Alan Cox Show.
Speaker 31 (01:50:22):
Alan Cox is the worst strive time personality I've ever heard.
Speaker 19 (01:50:30):
Two one six seven eight one double oh seven or
three four eighty one double oh seven.
Speaker 10 (01:50:53):
You know.
Speaker 1 (01:50:54):
We do a metal show here on the Buzzard most Saturdays.
Last week we got preempted by a late Cavs game,
but we're back this Saturday night ten o'clock. The show
is appropriately called two Hours to Midnight, little homage of
the Iron Maiden song. Me and Corey Ronick and Pat Butler.
We put our heads together and we kick out one
(01:51:15):
hundred and twenty minutes. Enough of a metal, a lot
of brand new stuff, local music throwbacks like Judas Priest,
a lot of fun. So if you're in the metal,
you should join us on Saturday night for two hours
to midnight. I was thinking of freewheel Burn and Missus
of the track that leads off Defenders of the Faith.
Were you a Judas Priest fan at all? I was
(01:51:36):
very much to love Judas Priest nineteen eighty five. I
think Defenders of the Faith came out was wedged in
between Screaming for Vengeance and Turbo, which is when they
went full on into eighties keyboards and stuff.
Speaker 8 (01:51:51):
I'm still blown away at how good he sounds at
this point in his life.
Speaker 1 (01:51:55):
Yes, I mean, just spot on too what he has
always been. They they, I will say, as much as
I've loved Judas Priest and as many times as I've
seen them. The first time I ever saw them, Iron
Maiden opened for them, Oh boy, I was eleven or twelve.
But I've seen them a lot and they're real hot
and cold. Boy, there are sometimes Rob Halford still sounds great,
(01:52:18):
but he's not moving around much. So going off years
ago they did it was still the Q. It was
Black Label Society and Judas Priest, and I think he
was like going off stage between every song, just take
it break now, just to point on some new leather duster,
what's weird? I was like, all right, it is a
(01:52:38):
lot of fun, but you know, and again I understand
it's not nineteen eighty five anymore. But anyway, I thought
of this song because I was reading about how AMC.
I can't believe nobody's done this. AMC is fast tracking.
If your part in the pun a soap opera for
lack of a better term about Nascar, it's called thunder Road.
(01:52:59):
This is basically gonna be Yellowstone for people who like NASCAR.
She wouldn't you assume at this point like that's over?
Speaker 19 (01:53:06):
Man?
Speaker 1 (01:53:06):
How many are six people watching NASCAR every week?
Speaker 6 (01:53:09):
Now?
Speaker 1 (01:53:09):
Isn't it still huge? I don't think, like my son
got me an F one, So I've never really paid
attention to NASCAR, But my son's way in to F one,
so I pay more attention to that. But even that,
I'm not like a die hard, right, But I thought
NASCAR was still massive.
Speaker 8 (01:53:24):
I mean, all I can tell you is they've shrunk
their footprint at every single.
Speaker 1 (01:53:29):
Race track by at half. Really, we used to go
my buddies and I would go to Dover every year
week parties are just a blast. Oh it's nuts, It's
it's so much fun. But they've gotten rid of all
of this seating at all of these tracks. The backstretch
at Daytona's gone. Why is that because no one was going? Really?
Speaker 8 (01:53:46):
Yeah, and now, I mean they took the stock car
out of stock car racing, is what everybody would say, right,
because every car was built the same and it was
all you know, they got rid of whatever that hillbilly
NASCAR stuff was that people fell in love with. And like,
if you go to tracks like Dover they'd put one
hundred thousand people in there. When we would go in
the early two thousands, it was awesome. Well then now
(01:54:09):
all of that stuff is covered up.
Speaker 1 (01:54:10):
I just remember the area around Daytona Speedway being super janky.
Y oh yeah, it was like Ohio, Like the beach
was like tweakers and needles in the sand. And you know,
we had up a wedding in Orlando years ago and
we drove to Daytona just to kind of dick around
and and writ next door it was the speedway.
Speaker 8 (01:54:29):
I was like, oh my god, I think they've just
had to continue to find new ways to invent themselves.
It was reinvent themselves, I guess because NASCAR was always
like if you won, it was x number of points,
if you you want to start on a pole position,
be the fastest car during qualifying.
Speaker 1 (01:54:43):
It like changed everything. But I was going to say,
it's not like people don't care about auto racing anymore.
So where did those people go? They went to Afuan
or they went to I think a lot of people
stopped watching it just all together.
Speaker 8 (01:54:53):
I know a lot of people stopped watching it all
together because everything became there's like I mean, there's a
living in trailers. Well, for sure, A lot of those
are the ones that never gave up on it. Maybe,
but I mean they gave everything changed. There were heat races,
there were you know, qualifying races for qualifying time.
Speaker 1 (01:55:10):
It was just it was playoffs. It all became very,
very weird for NASCAR. So I don't know. I mean,
maybe maybe it's back to big time levels. But I
couldn't name a driver. I don't think. Okay, chase something
last and I I stopped, I would go, I would go.
(01:55:31):
I remember Bubba Wallace because he was like the black
guy in NASCAR, and he's like, yeah, they're hanging nooses
from my garage. I remember that the Wallace family, Rusty Wallace,
and that was his crew. That was his family.
Speaker 10 (01:55:44):
You know.
Speaker 1 (01:55:44):
So I don't I don't know current NASCAR at all.
It's been twenty years since I've watched a race. Yeah,
I knew the same names everybody else knew. Jeff Gordon
and Dale Earn Harden. Those are the only names I knew.
But anyway, AMC has a greenlit basically yellowstone for car racing.
(01:56:08):
It's called thunder Road. The High Octane World of Nascar.
Rob Yeah, well, maybe this is a way to keep
their profile up as a show like this maybe or
attract another audience, you know, I know, I mean Days
of thunderback in the day, and that was a huge
movie with Tom Cruise. That's again, that was like the
peak of Wow, not the peak, but the NASCAR was
(01:56:30):
huge then. I mean Dale Earnhardt was a you know,
all of those drivers were still around. I know, it's
completely different, but when I was getting well, I had
my car in a couple of weeks ago because there
was a recall something and they needed to tire change something.
So I'm sitting there in the lobby waiting for them
to get done and top Gear was on, like the OGBBC.
(01:56:52):
Top Gear's great and I'd never seen it before. It
was very entertaining, very very funny show. Alice Cooper was
the guest. It just so happened. Yeah, No, very entertaining.
I don't think that's on anymore though, right, No, those dudes,
but always watching those dudes mess with each other. That's
it was so funny because they were all just friends
who loved cars. Yeah, and I know that was a
huge show, but I had just never seen it before.
But yeah, it was very entertaining. So anyway, this but
(01:57:14):
again I was reading this article. It was in Deadline
or something. I was like, how have they never done this?
They've never done a Yellowstone for NASCAR. But it's coming
to AMC called thunder Road. You know, NASCAR started technically
during Prohibition when bootleggers, right, they were like, we need tiny,
tiny cars to get this stuff around, and they can.
(01:57:37):
They could outrun the cops, right, isn't that how NASCAR started?
Like Prohibition, Like they had to come up with cars
they could outrun the cops. They were trying to chase
them down. I'm a bootlegger. That's exactly how it started.
Allan has an Ai song called duck Off Alan cosmiths, all.
Speaker 2 (01:57:56):
Right, so's in the corner of the dog solid devil,
(01:58:21):
let it.
Speaker 10 (01:58:21):
Be no.
Speaker 2 (01:58:24):
But he's where sand days and the contact ones.
Speaker 1 (01:58:30):
Oh I see. So they're just throwing everything out everything,
all right, thank you, Luke duck Off. So NASCAR no
longer releases official attendance figures. That's a first sign that
things aren't great. So there's no exact average. Are there
too many? Do they just hit critical mass? Like there
are there too many races and too few people, or
(01:58:51):
this is a fifteen hundred races a year.
Speaker 8 (01:58:54):
Well, no, so NASCAR is not just you're thinking of
like the Cup Series. That's what the big thing is
to be describe it. Yeah, because NASCAR is a sanctioning body.
It's National Association of Stock Car Racing, I think is
what that stands for.
Speaker 1 (01:59:10):
That's it and stock car racing A yeah, so that's
the governing body.
Speaker 8 (01:59:18):
So that could be tracks Here are NASCAR sanctioned tracks, right,
so they follow the NASCAR rules.
Speaker 1 (01:59:24):
But when you say NASCAR, people think of that Cup Series.
That's the top.
Speaker 8 (01:59:27):
You know where Dale Earnhart and those guys drove. That's
what what I'm looking at. And they're saying they're down
from the average of over one hundred thousand people in
the early two thousands where it was at its peak,
and they're guessing around forty to sixty thousand per event now,
So I mean, that's still a good crowd, but it's
(01:59:49):
half of what it was twenty years ago.
Speaker 1 (01:59:51):
See one person text me, NASCAR is still huge. Somebody
text me, NASCAR is pretty much done. I think again,
it's relative. If you're gonna sell sixty thousand tickets to
something people still care, clearly, but they got rid of
like there were two races in New Hampshire. They're down
to one. Yeah, you know, it's that type of stuff.
It's just shrunk hmm. All right, well that show is
(02:00:16):
coming if you're a big fan. I was reading about
how the I don't know how it came up. Maybe
it was one of these entertainment magazines or something, but
the pope's favorite movies. Oh yes, oh, I know what
it was. He had, remember, and he had all the comedians.
Was it the last pope? I think it was the
(02:00:38):
last pope that had all the comedians out, and it
was a real you know who got invited who did
and it was like Chris Rock and side Feld when
it was Pope who was a last guy, Francis. Pope
Francis I think, had a bunch of comedians out and
Pope Leo had He's welcoming thirty Hollywood stars to the
(02:00:58):
Vatican to deepen the dialogue with the world of cinema
rob and so they were like, hey, what are your
favorite movies? And I was hoping there'd be like a
real wild pitch in there, and maybe there is. It's
got any the blues Brothers. No, it's not The Blues.
Speaker 8 (02:01:16):
That's not his favorite movie when there's something seriously wrong
with the whole thing. Yeah, I don't understand how that's possible.
Speaker 6 (02:01:21):
He rap.
Speaker 1 (02:01:22):
Yeah, hey, Pope, No, you're what did I call you earlier?
You're excellent?
Speaker 4 (02:01:29):
You don't have to do it.
Speaker 1 (02:01:30):
I like what you call me, Pope. He pope. What
do you say, Pope? Did you see I did?
Speaker 3 (02:01:36):
Yeah?
Speaker 1 (02:01:37):
So, how is Blues Brothers not number one for a
guy from Chicago? Is that movie?
Speaker 4 (02:01:41):
Saks? I'll say it.
Speaker 1 (02:01:44):
No, it does not. I mean, with all due respect,
your holiness thinks like it. No, please, Pope, Pope.
Speaker 7 (02:01:51):
Stinks like an al's beef sitting the winning to sell
the front room.
Speaker 1 (02:01:56):
I'll respectfully disagree with you, Pope.
Speaker 4 (02:01:58):
That's fine. Subjective.
Speaker 1 (02:02:00):
So what is your favorite movie?
Speaker 4 (02:02:03):
It's a Wonderful Life, remember this one.
Speaker 7 (02:02:06):
That's so on the nose Zeus Pedals Wrap George Bailey. Yeah,
you know why because there's an angel in it?
Speaker 1 (02:02:15):
Yeah all right, But there's a lot of movies. So
you're like, Bruce Almighty, is that on your list too?
Speaker 4 (02:02:18):
It's not on my list, but it's pretty god damn
good movie.
Speaker 1 (02:02:23):
What about Bruce almighty two? Did you enjoy that one?
Speaker 7 (02:02:26):
I don't remember that one about a movie called remember
a movie called Heaven?
Speaker 4 (02:02:31):

Speaker 29 (02:02:32):
Or baby?
Speaker 4 (02:02:33):
Remember that one?
Speaker 1 (02:02:34):
Is that on your list?
Speaker 4 (02:02:35):
It's not on my list. I don't want anybody waiting
for Heaven. I want them up here.
Speaker 1 (02:02:40):
Well I'm not up here, but well, don't you actually
have to wait?
Speaker 4 (02:02:43):
It's passable, but.
Speaker 1 (02:02:44):
We all have to wait to get there, don't we.
You don't have to wait.
Speaker 4 (02:02:47):
It's a made up place.
Speaker 1 (02:02:48):
Rap.
Speaker 4 (02:02:49):
I'm not supposed to say that publicly, but of course
all made up. So there's no such place as heaven.
Speaker 1 (02:02:53):
Good Lord, don't.
Speaker 4 (02:02:54):
Worry about that. Sound of music is on my list?
Speaker 19 (02:02:56):
Rap?
Speaker 4 (02:02:57):
Sound of music?
Speaker 1 (02:02:59):
I like that ship? That's is it the Nazis?
Speaker 19 (02:03:02):
That?
Speaker 1 (02:03:03):
Does that play into your No, it's a not Nazi version.
I'm just I'm just saying I was trying to remember
which movie that one?
Speaker 4 (02:03:11):
Nasty?
Speaker 10 (02:03:11):
Yeah?
Speaker 4 (02:03:11):
How do you solve a problem like Marie?
Speaker 7 (02:03:14):
Yeah?
Speaker 1 (02:03:14):
That one?
Speaker 4 (02:03:16):
Life is.
Speaker 1 (02:03:18):
Again? Please?
Speaker 4 (02:03:19):
How do you sound the problem like Mari?
Speaker 30 (02:03:21):
Yeah?
Speaker 7 (02:03:25):
I have noticed that a couple of people pointed out
that there are two Nazi movies on my list, Rapp, what's.
Speaker 1 (02:03:32):
The other one Life is Beautiful.
Speaker 7 (02:03:35):
Yeah, and then the movie called Ordinary People. I think
this because that was shot.
Speaker 4 (02:03:42):
And in Chicago.
Speaker 8 (02:03:43):
Well that's Robert Redford, right, Rabbert, the Late Rabbert. Yeah yeah, yeah, yeah, okay,
all right, that one.
Speaker 19 (02:03:48):
I know.
Speaker 4 (02:03:48):
I told him Pee Wee's Big Top, but they wanted
nothing to do with it.
Speaker 8 (02:03:51):
I've never seen uh uh the sound of Music, so
I can't. I can't say anything to that one, but
I it's a wonderful life, super perfectly fine movie.
Speaker 1 (02:04:00):
But it's like it's once a year, you watch it
at Christmas. I can't tell them my real favorite movies, rap,
I gotta get in this crap. What's your favorite, my
real favorite, your real favorite movie?
Speaker 4 (02:04:11):
Behind the Green Door? Remember that one, Marilyn Chambers Behind
the Green Door? Right, you wanted me to say it?
Speaker 1 (02:04:17):
I said it, all right, all right?
Speaker 4 (02:04:19):
Talk about how Italian Beef rat?
Speaker 1 (02:04:21):
Yeah? Yeah, But you say no to Blues Brothers?
Speaker 10 (02:04:24):
Nope?
Speaker 1 (02:04:25):
What about Dumb and Dumber? That's my favorite comedy?
Speaker 4 (02:04:29):
Yes, it's all right.
Speaker 1 (02:04:30):
You cool with the Godfather?
Speaker 8 (02:04:31):
Yeah, of course, all right, So that's on the list, right,
It's got gad in it, rap, I have to be
cool with I want true there's also a lot of
bad things that happen in that movie, so it's you know,
I just want to make sure that's okay with the Pope.
Speaker 1 (02:04:44):
Pope, Hey, I used.
Speaker 4 (02:04:47):
Somebody to clarify it.
Speaker 1 (02:04:48):
Rob, I'll not do feel it right. I appreciate it. Yeah,
enjoy those those hot dogs. Oh boy, h what an
exciting exchange. He's having Kate Blanchett out to the Vatican.
(02:05:11):
Chris Pine, Alison Bree, Dave Franco, that's her husband, of course,
some lame Spike Lee, George Miller, Gus Van Sant, those
are all directors. George Miller's the guy that did The
Road Warrior and Mad Max and the Tom Hardy one
Fury Road. Did I say Vigo Mortensen you did? Not
(02:05:35):
a lot of people know him from the Lord of
the Rings movies. My favorite Vigo Mortensen is a David
Cronenberg movie, actually two movies. He did a Cronenberg movie
based on a graphic novel called The History of Violence,
which is great, and then he did another movie called
Eastern Promises, where he's like an enforcer for the Russian
Mab Mab. Two great Vigo movies for the Russian Mab.
(02:05:59):
Not the guy on the wall from Ghostbusters. Alan talking
about Nascar, What about the movie six Pack with Kenny Rodgers?
Jesus remember that? No, he was like oversea and I
think a group of kids like Diane Lane was a
teenager in it. And you know, devotion accuracy of Bubba
and Rusty Wallace not related. I thought that they were.
(02:06:20):
I don't know anything, but I mean, is Rusty Wallace
a black guy?
Speaker 19 (02:06:23):
No?
Speaker 1 (02:06:24):
But I.
Speaker 8 (02:06:26):
Don't think Bubba is all black. Oh, I think he's
part of a f I could have sworn he was
part of that family.
Speaker 1 (02:06:35):
Alan, what's happening is that the big tracks are getting
prime dates and the smaller tracks are struggling, and it
kills their attendants and they can't make it up with
other events. Yeah, but that would that che well, I
was gonna say. That would imply to me that the
that the available audience is shrinking and that's why they
have to make those kinds of decisions. But Allen, what
(02:06:57):
about the Woppie Goldberg. I assume you mean Whoopy if
I do like Whoppie gold Yeah, which one sister act? Yeah?
I like sister act. I never saw a sister act.
But take your word for it. Hey, what's up, guys?
Speaker 15 (02:07:15):
I live out in Mentor, and Mentor has converted every
goddamn tennis court into a stupid pickleball court. There's nowhere
to play tennis anymore. And if you go there at night,
there are hundreds of teenagers. It's like the new teenager
hangout spot. It's so bizarre. They need to find something
(02:07:36):
else to do. Take it easy, guess what's I mean?
Speaker 19 (02:07:39):
Like?
Speaker 1 (02:07:39):
Teenagers are looking for places to hang out. So if
there's a new court, they don't care that it's pickleball,
Let's just go and waste our time. Let's just go.
We're trying to go somewhere. We need a place. What
good is having an e bike if you have nowhere
to ride it? And if it's pickleball court, is there
and it's brand new, and again they cut the nets
(02:08:00):
down from the hoops. Nobody's playing basketball anymore. So Alan
could Rob expound on his love for Bruce Almighty too?
Wasn't that Evan Almighty?
Speaker 19 (02:08:12):
It was?
Speaker 1 (02:08:12):
Yeah, that was the Steve Correll vehicle. Hey, I don't
have any love for it. I was just trying to
see if Pope had anything to say about it.
Speaker 10 (02:08:18):
Ah.
Speaker 8 (02:08:19):
Hey, Pope, Hey, Pope, Yeah, I stand corrected. I always
assumed that he was part of the Rusty and whatever.
His brother's name is Wallace clan, but he is not.
Bubba Wallace is not of that same family.
Speaker 1 (02:08:34):
So much I have to I have to think that
Bubba Wallace is a part of a family with people
of the same last name. Yes see, he didn't just
pass here from some membrane from another dimension and pick
a last name. No, yeah, yeah, Okay. I don't know
(02:08:55):
anything about NASCAR, but over the years, I've had friends
who have gone to those just for kind of shrimps
and giggles of the infield parties, and they're like, it's
so fun. It was great. We would go. There's nothing
about it that doesn't look fun. But then you got
to watch auto racing and that becomes very secondary to
what you're doing. I mean, you tickets to two races.
Speaker 8 (02:09:17):
You know, there's the Bush it was the whatever it's
called the Bush Series, I don't know what it is now,
and then the Winston Cup.
Speaker 1 (02:09:22):
I don't know what that is now.
Speaker 8 (02:09:24):
Well, we would go to those every weekend or excuse me,
once a year. You go to those two races. The
races are what four hours long or something. You just
be hammered the entire the entire weekend ten you know,
seven guys just crushing beers for four days.
Speaker 1 (02:09:39):
Wow, it was a blast. Not so much fun. Well
there you go. Yeah, I've never gone.
Speaker 8 (02:09:45):
And F one's great. I could just never afford to
go to an F one race because that stuff. And
now that's all like we joke about me living the
high life profile and all that stuff, but joke.
Speaker 1 (02:09:56):
Well, listen, I'm the F one guy. The hell's going on?
Gotta have one money.
Speaker 8 (02:10:01):
Nobody's getting to those I've never been, But I mean
you can get tickets, right, But if you want to
do any of the stuff that you see on television
when you're watching those races, oh I want to get
close to the cars, Yeah, you're You've got bet to
add a couple of zeros to what you make.
Speaker 1 (02:10:13):
Do you like the sound of that Bush series? Though?
I have baby like, uh take it off? H oh
like the beer?
Speaker 18 (02:10:24):
The Ellen cock Show on one hundred seven Best way
to resist the machines. Dumb down your smartphone by listening
to this crap. He won't even remember how.
Speaker 1 (02:10:41):
To tell time.
Speaker 19 (02:10:42):
The cock Show on one hundred point seven w MM.
Speaker 1 (02:11:11):
I forgot Ween did a song called stroker Ace back
in the day, the Burt Reynolds Nascar movie. Remember stroker Ace, yep.
But when somebody said six pack earlier, I was thinking
stroker Ace because that was post Smokey and the Bandit.
So I think they were just gonna keep going down
that road with Burt Reynolds is a big deal and
(02:11:31):
they were like, oh, this is gonna blow the doors
off the joint if you're pardon the punt. And it
flopped hard, boy, just post Cannonball run post Cannonball. Yeah,
they went to that well won too many times. It
was actually a book that they turned into a movie
with about a NASCAR driver, you know, and it was
peak Burt Reynolds and the Ween song from probably twenty
five thirty years ago. It is just a an homage
(02:11:53):
to that character, I guess. But yeah, flopped hard. They
called it the must miss movie of the imagine that, Hey,
Burt Reynold, Lonnie Anderson, right, she was a lead. I
think that was another movie I remember from the early
days of like HBO and now cult favorites, you know,
things people love, Yeah, but do they I mean, I
(02:12:14):
bet if we watch Stroker Race now we go, oh yeah,
it's still stinks. I bet you there's people that just
stroke to Stroker Race.
Speaker 30 (02:12:21):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (02:12:23):
Well, because all those movies back then were directed. You know,
everybody made a big deal about how the John Wick
movies were so good because the director was a stuntman.
A guy named Chad Selsky, I think did the first
couple of John Wick movies. And that's what they were
doing back on the day with these. The stuntman named
Hel Needham was a director, yep, and so he would
do all those Burt Reynolds racing movies.
Speaker 8 (02:12:44):
And you know, oh Jesus four point nine on IMDb
and nineteen percent on Rotten Tomatoes. Yeah, it flopped out
art World's favorite no.
Speaker 1 (02:12:54):
But the guys in Ween got a great song out
of it on that White Pepper record. And Stroker A
That's what I was thinking of when somebody said six pack,
I know that was a Kenny. I was thinking, I
put them together. Ethan, our buddy there in Rochester, New York. Allan,
It's a Wonderful Life might be the Pope's favorite movie,
(02:13:14):
but it's based off Seneca Falls, New York, which is
a town known for a dump.
Speaker 8 (02:13:20):
It literally smells like hot garbage. But people go there
to visit, man, just to see all that stuff.
Speaker 1 (02:13:25):
Yeah, imagine that your tourist destination is a town that
is a dump. Literally. We drove through it when we
went to Thanksgiving last years. Oh God for you. He
told your darter did his say, Oh, he just mentioned
(02:13:45):
it that it was when you fly into Newark and
you can smell it from like five thousand feet. You know,
Alan teenagers can't win. People bitch when they spend all
day inside on their phones and play an Xbox, and
then they bitch when they're outside on the pickleball courts.
It's a good take, You're right. I do, for the
(02:14:06):
most part, really try to be on the side of
the kids, because like I was not a I was
not a typical kid, you know, the joke with me
with my family and people who knew, you know, I
was like a forty year old fifth grader, and so
it's why I devoted my adult life to being a
juvenile and trying to get paid for it. So, you know,
(02:14:29):
I kind of went the other way. But kids don't
have it, I mean, everybody, because it's the easiest group
to crap on. You know, everybody looks behind them. You know,
in another generation, Eh, damn, kids, we've all done it.
We all were the kid adult. Every every kid does it.
(02:14:51):
But again, I wasn't a kid that was like getting
into trouble well in school because I was trying to
make everybody laugh. That's when I would get into trouble.
But I wasn't like a kid that was like I
wasn't a rule breaker, and so I would look at
peers of mind that we're doing that with like great
(02:15:11):
affection because I was like, man, that looks fun, that
looks fun that I'm doing all this stuff they're not
supposed to do. But I was always terrified getting in
trouble because to me, that meant getting spanked, getting you
know whatever. So I was always trying to avoid getting
into trouble, even as a grown man, even professionally. That's
(02:15:34):
always been that dichotomy in my brain, is is wanting
to get directly into people's faces, but at the same
time being like, I don't want to be a bother.
You know, it's hard to do that in this business.
I wish I could be like I don't want to
get any I mean I don't want to, you know,
just trying to make feel laugh. I don't want to
get in trouble. See, I wish I could be like that.
(02:15:55):
I still I've been doing this. I've been in this
line of work for thirty plus years. Right, if anybody
could walk around this place swinging it around, I'm one
of those people, right for me and Rover probably now
neither of us do. But to this day, when somebody
(02:16:17):
from management walks in the room, I puck her up. Really.
Now that's partly because of the state of the business
in twenty twenty five, but I've been that way the
whole way through because I'm like, here we go. Yeah,
because there's a part of me from when I was
a little kid the worst thing, the worst thing for
me was to get into trouble because it meant corporal punishment.
(02:16:38):
That's how I was raised.
Speaker 3 (02:16:39):
Yeah.
Speaker 8 (02:16:39):
The best thing that ever happened was I got fired.
And then as soon as I got fired, by the
first tired, Yeah, I was never afraid of it anymore.
So I was like, you know what, man, I'll figure
it out. Yeah, And I'm sure a lot.
Speaker 1 (02:16:50):
A lot easier when you're like a single dude with no,
you know, oh, no question. You only are responsible for yourself.
That's true of any business though. But yeah, but to day,
in my brain, I'm like, well, I don't want to
get in trouble, and I'm the one over here calling
our bosses idiots every two seconds. So yeah, you know
what that that's fine. That's the yin and the yang.
(02:17:12):
You know. If I get worked up into a lather,
oh for sure. Yeah, but they off.
Speaker 8 (02:17:16):
I mean, listen, in all fairness that they know, just
stay out of the way, leave us alone. That's pretty
much what works. Well.
Speaker 1 (02:17:22):
If you don't want your underlings to mock, you, don't
get into management. I've never been a program director, right,
I've been a music I've been an assistant music director
over the course of my career. Back when we used
to have those, I was a promotions director. I was
an assistant program director. I was an APD because back
(02:17:43):
in the day, that's how you made more money. Yeah, hey,
you want to be APD. Yeah, sure, all right, you'll
help me out, will talk to the labels or whatever,
and you'll make five grand more years. Yeah sure, yeah
cool right, yeah, but yeah, and I and I.
Speaker 8 (02:17:58):
Walked backwards back into being on the air, you know
what I mean, Like, this wasn't my plan, but it was.
It's I'm thankful that it happened the way that it
did too, because i mean, look, man, like now, I
can say anything I want to anybody for the most part,
and I'll.
Speaker 1 (02:18:16):
Just go it's just the show.
Speaker 9 (02:18:18):
I'm just.
Speaker 8 (02:18:21):
Come on, I'm just I don't think you're a complete
imbecile and a waste of space like I said on
the show. No, it's all parody. I'm just it's you know,
it's the show. Come on, that's right. He Rob's doing
that show stuff again. Yeah, you have both of those
hats on. I only have one hat.
Speaker 1 (02:18:41):
It's great.
Speaker 8 (02:18:42):
I love it for you sit down in those meetings
with those guys and he's like, man, nemember that time
you called me a complete moron last week and like, yeah,
the characters just goofing around.
Speaker 1 (02:18:55):
I don't think you're a moron. And my fingers crossed.
That was our n word, Anthony. That's right, I had
had off. Yeah, I got money for you here in
a couple of minutes, a lass keyword of the day
(02:19:15):
from the Buzzard bookie. I get periodic emails from a
guy named Elliott. He's the guy who sends me the
compendium of words. Oh, I've forced him to google. And
he has not chastised me, but as somebody who's taken
it upon himself to chronicle these. He's like, hey, I'm
(02:19:37):
not I haven't gotten as many recently as I thought
I might. And he's like, because he sent me one
in May, he sent me one in August, and he
just sent me one that has four words on it.
Speaker 3 (02:19:53):
Just four.
Speaker 1 (02:19:54):
Now that has to be a combination of you know,
he can't listen every second of every show. Perspicacious, coterie, intoning, ingenue, semiotic.
He's like, yeah, five. Sorry, he goes, these are the
only new words, very scarce. And then when he sent
me in August, he goes, it might not be getting.
(02:20:16):
I don't think I knew what one of those words
meant that you said of the five. Oh, what was
the first one? Perspecasius? Yeah? Absolutely no, oh not even
I mean it's not a common word, but perspicacious. Yeah.
Does it have anything to do with perspiration? No, Okay, no,
it's like somebody who has like somebody who has a
(02:20:37):
particular insight on something. Okay, all right, onto the next one.
The other one was Coterie Coderie. Yeah CODERI is that
just uh working with code in some way? Yeah a Coteri. Okay,
so not co A t so not Jackets. No, no,
I'm out no idea like people like oh my coat
(02:21:00):
of friends. Right, you're all kind of of the same
mind and you have okay group. Again, I don't know
the context of which I yeah, you're a group of friends.
I talk how I talk, I know. Yeah, that's what
I love about you. I write. I just need some help,
that's all, you know. But again I don't recall. These
are context free, right, That's why it sounds hella douche.
Speaker 8 (02:21:24):
And it's so much fun because then I sound even
more dumb than I normally am.
Speaker 1 (02:21:30):
Well, let me read off the ones that he sent
me the last time through. There was what did you
the other ones aren't? What were they?
Speaker 10 (02:21:38):
Other?
Speaker 1 (02:21:38):
Three?
Speaker 18 (02:21:39):
Oh?
Speaker 1 (02:21:39):
Intoning, ingenue, semionic you got a meaning for those real quick?
Speaker 9 (02:21:43):
Well?
Speaker 1 (02:21:43):
You know what he was in toning, you know, like
Monroe Tonight in toning, right in tone. So that's just
you know, ingenue, you know what that is. She was
an author, right some'uh she no, No, you're thinking of
Maya Angelo. Oh, yeah, the same thing. No, when they
(02:22:06):
talk about like, oh, the young ingenue in the film, right,
it's like a it's like a sweet innocent character in
a in a film, they ingenue. I don't know if
there's a male con I don't think there's such a
thing as a male ingenue. And then semiotic is what
(02:22:26):
didn't a listener throw that in? Or did I throw
it in? Semiotic? Semiotic? I'm not sure that's a language term. Okay,
part of language anyway. Yeah, So that's so the newest
email he sent me. He had a big long list
last time. Parapet kruger an hoy poloy penitent copra faga
(02:22:51):
that's somebody eats poop coprah faga. Yeah, great death metal
band playing on Saturday night. As a matter of fact,
and to Arson Midnight, it's the opposite of a copamaja, yes,
maja and faga. That's right. Pablum maliffluis effluvium, bedraggled costumonger,
pardon cost monger. I was talking about, Oh you know,
(02:23:14):
you don't. There aren't a lot of mongers anymore, right, fishmongers.
I was doing a manger bit because I'm hilarious.
Speaker 7 (02:23:23):
Rob.
Speaker 1 (02:23:24):
Oh, if you can't get people to fall down laughing
with a Manger bit, I don't know what to tell
you righter. Costmonger was like the guy with selling the
vegetables on the car. Hey, you know, okay, alright, fancy
word for a guy selling produce. But the point that
(02:23:45):
I was making at the time, okay, good now, the
point I was making at the time is it one
of the more popular current mongers is hate and that's unfortunate.
Some people really seem to be leaning in on that.
So anyway, he sent me, he has sent me some
(02:24:05):
email and the last one only had five words, So
I don't know that that's his passive aggressive way of
letting me know that he needs to step it up.
But I can't force these things, you know what I mean,
They're not thought out ahead of time. I just talk
how I talk. We're in the last month of the
of the year for shows. You better step it up.
I guess you're right. The last live show of the
(02:24:26):
year is going to be the sixteenth of December, which
will mark rob December sixteenth will be my sixteenth anniversary
at WMMS. Nice. How do you like them? Apple? I
gotta buy another bottle of ove. Next one, I'll bring it.
We've set the bar now. Now I gotta good pun
(02:24:51):
by the way, Congratulations to one Joseph Walsh esquire who's
loved around northeast Ohio, of course because he's a Ken
State grand But his hometown is Wichita, Kansas. I heard
from one of our bureau chiefs in Wichita, Kansas. He goes, hey,
I don't know if you saw this. Joe Walsh has
gotten his own street in Wichita, Kansas. Now his connection
(02:25:15):
to Ohio goes beyond Kent State. I think as a
young man he was born in Wichita, but I think
when his parents got divorced or something, he he was
in Columbus. So he spent a lot of his younger
years in Ohio. And James was there, right, James Gang,
I believe so, yeah, But I couldn't remember if they
came from out of Kent State or not. But Joe
(02:25:36):
Walsh was his stepfather's name. His father Robert Fiddler. He
could have just as easily been Joe Fiddler.
Speaker 8 (02:25:45):
Then he would have had to have played the fiddle,
which would have been much different thing.
Speaker 1 (02:25:50):
But well, you got to carry your own Hickory Stump
with you everywhere seems formed in Cleveland. There you go.
I didn't know that. Yeah, but his hometown. I mean, listen,
they're looking for whatever they can do to pump, to
get Wichita in the news. But his father was a
pilot in the Air Force who died in a mid
(02:26:11):
air collision during maneuvers over Okinawa. That in that you
hit another plane, that's how you die, fall from the sky,
probably on fire. Anyway, took his stepfather's name. Walsh moved
to Ohio, and I don't know that he graduated from
Kent State. I think he's associated with that school because
(02:26:31):
he was there for a bit. But I think I
think the music thing took off before he was out
of school. But Joe Walsh getting his own street in Wichita, Kansas. Now,
if you are unfamiliar with the layout of Wichita, Kansas,
join the club. But they had that Vets Aid concert.
(02:26:52):
Remember they do vet states like farm a bits for
vets because yesterday was Veteran's Day. Joe Walsh very very
involved in that kind of stuff. Is that what they
did when the food fighters in him played Columbus a
couple of years ago, wasn't that the big vets Age show.
It was like nine inch Nails all the Ohio people.
So it was like Dave Grohl from Warren and nine
Inch Nails. I think it was the Betside.
Speaker 3 (02:27:12):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (02:27:13):
Anyway, this year's is taking place in Wichita, Kansas, his hometown.
He is of course in the Rock and Roll Hall
of Fame. He's seventy seven. Joe waltsh is almost eighty.
So if you know where the Intrust Bank Arena is
there in Wichita, that's where the concerts being held and Friday,
(02:27:34):
he will be honored with a memorial street right out now,
Memorial Ceremonial Street right outside the arena there the intersection
of English and Saint Francis Avenues. Rob I like the
last line of the article, it is not known if
he will attend. It is there with the mayor. Yeah, hi, everybody.
Speaker 4 (02:27:57):
We were hoping that Joe Walsh would join us today's.
We're naming this dumb street after him, but he has
not yet. We haven't heard back from his people.
Speaker 1 (02:28:06):
We're still waiting. Fingers crossed mine.
Speaker 4 (02:28:09):
He shows up and maybe he got his time zones
screwed up.
Speaker 1 (02:28:12):
We are Central Time. But then we remembered where Wichita, Kansas. Instead.
There's no way in hell he's showing up. Yeah, but
the mayor is hot. That's okay. This is the mayor
of Wichita, Kansas. Lily Woo whoo. He's like forty one
years old. Look at her? Whoa Lily? What wow? Lily?
Speaker 13 (02:28:33):
What wo Lily?
Speaker 1 (02:28:35):
What wow? Lily Woo. How about that former television news
anchor who was elected. Well, there's your answer. There ain't
no hotties and baddies running for Wichita mayor. She's uh, hey,
you know my face. I was on television. She's purty
very party, the one hundred third mayor of Wichita, Kansas.
(02:28:58):
She's forty one born in Juma to Chinese immigrant parents,
went to Wichita East High School and got a bachelor's
degree from Wichita State the masters from the University of
Hong Kong. How about that she was like a young
(02:29:19):
Republican or something. I'll even look past that, and you
got to these days you're like, but okay, m anyway,
congratulations to Joseph Walsh forgetting that street. I hope he
does show up. I mean it's just a day before
the concert. He could show up a day early. I
(02:29:40):
know a lot of people like to come in day
of He seems like the kind of guy that wouldn't
want to leave them hanging. He seems like the kind
of guy.
Speaker 19 (02:29:48):
I want.
Speaker 1 (02:29:50):
I don't want that either, I guess.
Speaker 8 (02:29:53):
I guess I do now, I guess i' didn't want it.
Speaker 1 (02:30:00):
Then I want it now, No, I didn't want it.
Then that's pilot error on my part. That happens. Ugh,
that's what they get from making fun of not making fun.
But you know that's what I get for ogling the
mayor of a major American city. Woo, can you call?
You know, what's her name? Lily?
Speaker 19 (02:30:20):
What?
Speaker 4 (02:30:22):
Lily?
Speaker 6 (02:30:22):
What?
Speaker 1 (02:30:22):
Whoa Lily? Wichita is a major American city, right, ish?
I think I don't? Okay?
Speaker 6 (02:30:31):
Is I mean?
Speaker 1 (02:30:32):
We know it right? It's the biggest city in Kansas.
I don't think Kansas City, Kansas is bigger. Four hundred
thousand people in metro Wichita. I'd say that that's a
that's a big city. Yeah, Oh, Kansas City, Kansas is bigger.
Or is that Kansas City, Missouri? Well, I'll try in
the edge. So they have that's Kansas City, Missouri and
Kansas They lump them all together. But if you just
(02:30:54):
took the Kansas side, Topeka only as one hundred and
twenty five thousand, So Wichita is like four times as
big as Topeka. Whichita I didn't know that the fiftieth
largest city in the United States and they're mayor, so
it's big four is that dime? Yeah, Lily, whoa Lily
woo whoa like this show who woo.

That is the best kind of tang clan.
Speaker 3 (02:33:57):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (02:34:01):
Well, I feel like that guy's list is made up.
I listen every single day, and the only word I
remember from that list CODERI I'm like, yeah, you could
put anything in there and I would remember maybe two
of them. So you know, it's it's stream of consciousness
around here. Leslie wants to know if you know what
can tankeri is means when she refers to you as
(02:34:22):
the cantankeris clit rattler. Yes, I do know what tanker is.
I figured that you did. Thank you just passing along
her message. The cantankeros clit Rattler sounds like one of
those old Marvel comic books, you know how, like the
superhero always had an adjective, right, the Spectacular Spider Man,
the Incredible Hulk, Yes, the the uh what do they
(02:34:46):
call Wolverine? That the you know what I mean? Though,
they always had an adjective before it, right, the Amazing
Spider Man, The Amazing Spider Man's right. Marvel was big
on that. The fantastic I forget what the rest of us,
but it was a boy. There were four people there
that was pretty fantastic. Leslie's the cantanker is clip Red.
(02:35:09):
What a day? It called me old earlier and stupid. Now, Yeah,
she's just on a roll. I'll tell you what, man.
Speaker 6 (02:35:15):
Wow.
Speaker 1 (02:35:16):
When she puts her foot to the floor. She hadn't
let up. It's a lot.
Speaker 8 (02:35:22):
Yeah, So he's trying to get me into one of
those little bathing suits, tells me I got to live
my real life by wearing one of those.
Speaker 1 (02:35:30):
Those little things you wear. Yeah, I wear my limes,
your lives when I'm overseas, you know, everybody to be.
Speaker 8 (02:35:36):
So free as to wear these tiny little one inch
booty shorts. And I'm like, I am never gonna do that.
Speaker 1 (02:35:42):
Yeah, but you're but that's in your brain, not your body.
You're down like twenty five pounds almost more than that now,
but still, how are you doing that?
Speaker 15 (02:35:49):
Uh?
Speaker 8 (02:35:49):
Well, you know, Allen, I've been working with Mentality mentalityhealth
dot com, slash Radio to journey.
Speaker 1 (02:35:57):
I could go to mentalityhealth dot Com slash video and
they wouldn't be able to help me out. They would
I don't need it, but not everybody want to.
Speaker 8 (02:36:04):
But again, see, I started with the weight loss piece, right, like,
trying to focus on losing some weight. The testosterone pieces,
where most people really need to help you know, everything
about you starts to change over time. It's just I'm
like testosterone numbers like three times what it was when
I started.
Speaker 1 (02:36:24):
I feel like a million bucks. Many about that start
my day harder than Chinese algebra.
Speaker 3 (02:36:31):
This is.
Speaker 1 (02:36:33):
A man. Yeah, hey, forget about the cantagers. Clit Radler,
the incredible Hulk. I call him the Diamond hard Antony.
Speaker 4 (02:36:46):
Diamond.
Speaker 1 (02:36:47):
Yeah, here's a text. Can we pull the plug on
David Lee Roth Samples for f's sake? No? No, absolutely not.
That guy didn't like it. But oh, Allan, if your
air bags went off, that car is going to be toted.
My air bags did not go off, No, nothing like that.
(02:37:08):
It was just some body work that's going to have
to be done at the front. But again, I have
every assumption that they may come to me and go, yeah,
we're gonna toll this out. That's what they said about,
which is going to be a real bummer, by the way,
because I have taken such good care of this car
over the past year or so. Yeah, I started to
put some money into it, but I take great care
of it. Every time I have it at a place,
(02:37:29):
They're like, Jesus, this car didn't even look like it's
ever driven. I go, I know, and for it to
go out like this, Oh the indignity, rob WEF. It's
not over yet, I know, I'm not going to pre
get pre concerned. But the part at the end of
the day, it still has a ton of miles on it.
I mean, the good part really is that the air
(02:37:52):
bags did not go off when my daughter totalled her car.
There wasn't.
Speaker 8 (02:37:57):
I mean, there was enough damage that it was obvious, right,
But the air bags went off and the side curtain
air bags went off.
Speaker 1 (02:38:03):
Oh they did. And the guy looked at the car
and he's like, I'm not I don't have to look
at anything else.
Speaker 8 (02:38:07):
And I'm like why, and he goes because the value
of the car, he's the car's worth fifteen grand. He's like,
once you take just the air bags, He's like, there's
more than five thousand dollars worth of damage in the
front end of the car. Well, he's like, it's ten
grand worth of damage just with the airbags. He was like, oh,
e Jesus, yeah, yeah.
Speaker 1 (02:38:25):
Luke in Lakewood pointing out referring to the letter emails
that Elliott sends me about the vocabulary looking forward to
a new volume of that's what I call big Words.
I forgot all about that because again I talked the
way I talk in the first couple of years I
was here at WMMS, I was roundly mocked for how
(02:38:46):
I talk. Right, Morning Show spent a good two years
making fun of me. I was a new guy, right,
that was the kind of relationship they had with the
old show. They didn't know any better. Yeah, yeah, I
ignored it because I'm like, listen, I've been dealing with
this my whole career. I get it. It's how I talk.
I don't want to tell you. And Miles put together
a CD commercial called That's what I call Big Words.
(02:39:11):
I forgot all about that now we had Cipher Volume two.
Was that a bit that uh that, uh, Miles made
for you or made for Rover, made for me, made
for you? Well, I don't think they played it. I
don't know.
Speaker 32 (02:39:27):
From Alan cock Show records fll that's what I call
big words, with slamming tracks like it would be hoove
you to get on the damn floor, you would.
Speaker 1 (02:39:42):
Crude old mush.
Speaker 32 (02:39:43):
Pit favorites like we both with extreme prejudice if I.
Speaker 27 (02:39:47):
Was rebuffed, the soulful sounds of dynamite loving.
Speaker 12 (02:40:05):
Get bulling in with the King of Crooks bus litigious, litigious,
That's what I call big words.
Speaker 1 (02:40:17):
Some records I forgot all about that. That's great, thank
you Luke and Lakewood reminding me of that. I like
what Target is doing, by the way, to get ridy
get ready for the seasonal holiday sales. Target is taking
(02:40:38):
something every woman hates to hear and making it corporate policy,
which is smile more. Target wants their seasonal workers to
smile more in the hopes of boosting sales. Yes, that's
what they'll do it, not the fifteen dollars tubes of toothpaste.
Smile more. Yeah, well, listen, if you're at that retail level, man,
(02:41:03):
you're grasping at straws at this point, right. But I
don't think this, ain't it. Target instituting a new ten
to four policy for workers requires workers to smile, make
eye contact with wave, or greet a customer who comes
within ten feet.
Speaker 3 (02:41:20):
Now.
Speaker 1 (02:41:20):
I don't envy people working at Target because they see
this on a memo and they have like their mourning
all call or whatever right before the store opens to
get everybody in there store manager, shift manager or whatever.
Goes all right, guys, it's it's what they want. Anybody
who comes within ten feet of you, make eye contact
(02:41:42):
with them and wave. Now for the most part in
my experience, when you go into a target, there are
a lot of highs already, right, I mean, you're in
close proximity to another human being. They'll be like, hey,
how are you good? And there is some psychology behind it.
But the whole smile more thing made me laugh, right
(02:42:02):
because women hate to be told that. No, it's not
like they're going to be walking up to you.
Speaker 30 (02:42:06):
You know.
Speaker 1 (02:42:08):
I guess they wouldn't say that to you because they're
the ones supposed to be smiling.
Speaker 8 (02:42:11):
They're supposed to walk up to you and do like
the movie smile just creep people out. That's what's gonna happen.
Speaker 1 (02:42:15):
Yeah, ah, just staring at you. How's that guy smiling
at me? So the ten to four program, because everything
in corporate speaks got to be dumbed down. The ten
to four program means if the shopper comes within ten
feet of them, had to smile, make eye contact and
(02:42:36):
wave or greet them. Oh my god, they're ten people.
Way now does every employee carry a tape measure with them?
Speaker 8 (02:42:44):
He's thinking that exact same thing. Hold on, hang on, sir,
could you take a step forward please?
Speaker 1 (02:42:51):
I've got you at ten feet four inches, Jaden, I
noticed that you didn't smile at that guy. Well he
was five feet away. You on from it anyway, the
ten four that's what you're supposed to do if they're
within four feet, if they're I'm sorry, within ten feet.
If they're within four feet of you, you're required to
ask them if they need help or how their day
(02:43:12):
is going. Now, how do you determine which you're gonna
ask them?
Speaker 19 (02:43:17):
Right?
Speaker 1 (02:43:18):
Because anytime somebody asks me if I need help in
a retail environment, even if I do, I say no,
thank you. I'll figure it out myself. These aisles are
very specifically labeled I'll find what can I help you?
Speaker 6 (02:43:32):
Now?
Speaker 1 (02:43:32):
It's no incursion on your personal business. It's a pretty
standard retail greeting. Hey can I help you?
Speaker 10 (02:43:42):
Now?
Speaker 1 (02:43:42):
I think here's what you do is you put some
derision in there right, like when you're on the street,
Can I help you?
Speaker 30 (02:43:51):
Do it?
Speaker 3 (02:43:51):
Like that?
Speaker 1 (02:43:51):
Like if you're staring at somebody, can I help? Now?
Wait until the customers flip this back, because this story's
gone wide all the business periodicals and webs so people
are gonna be hip to this. You're gonna have all
kinds of people and this is why it's gonna suck
to be people we're gonna Target. You're gonna have people
walking in going can I help you? Because they're staring
at him and smiling. Mm. Now I can't get the
(02:44:15):
movie Smile out of my head, like staring at you
here in Yeah, Jack Nicholson's kid in this last one?
Why are you looking at me like that? Sir? Company policy?
Because you're within five feet of me. Play with us, Danny,
play with us forever he's not here, missus Darrett bad
(02:44:38):
Robe to welcome that Target bess as Dirat. So there's
a lot of wiggle room here to have fun, I guess.
And you know some people they're real sticklers. Some customers
a lot of negative nellies and care. And I can
(02:45:01):
see them sidling up to an otherwise busy employee and say,
like Kramer in the bank, Hey, you didn't say how's
it going, remembering Kramer tries to get the fifty dollars
because the guy didn't say hi, or how's it going
or whatever? You owe me fifty dollars. Target announced a
batch of corporate layoffs last month. They're based in Minneapolis.
(02:45:23):
Of course, they hadn't done any major layoffs at the
seed the suite level in a decade. That's where Sebio
stepped down, and that's where every company needs to look.
Every single company needs to look at that level and
then the next level down like every I think, I
think AI is going to take care of that one.
Speaker 8 (02:45:41):
Well, just think of all of these companies we'll use
use ours for example, the most management heavy company I've
ever seen in my life. You got one guy telling
another guy who I didn't even know still works here
to do something, that's telling somebody else to do something,
that's passing it on to three people that are doing
it on the market level. It's like, so why not
(02:46:04):
get rid of two or three of those people? The
C suite level jobs in any massive company are insane, insane,
completely unnecessary.
Speaker 1 (02:46:14):
It's pretty wild, especially since so many people fail upward
right Peter Principle. I came up with the ten to
four policy here at Target, guys, this is Frank Martin.
He is the creator of our ten four policy.
Speaker 8 (02:46:31):
You know, the guy was just asleep. Somebody said something
to him, a ten four ten for everybody. Well, what
the hell are you talking about?
Speaker 6 (02:46:37):
Uh?
Speaker 8 (02:46:38):
Well, you guys were talking about smiling right, Yeah, all right,
So if ten feet away you smile, four feet away,
you say.
Speaker 1 (02:46:49):
Hello, Jesus Christ. This guy's brilliant. Why is this guy
not running this company? Guys, Frank came to us from
the citizens band sector of retail. Ten there's a bear
in the air. Ten four, rubber duck. We got to
bring this guy on. He's got a fresh We need
fresh eyes on the situation. The fresh eyes just saved
(02:47:12):
the company. Yep. Ten something as simple as ten to four,
And look at the everybody else is grab it. Lateral
moves right a ceo of one company because you're just
making widgets, doesn't matter what it is. So the guy
who ran Uber can go and run target right, and
golden parachutes all the way around this guy, they go.
We wanted somebody from outside the box. This guy was
(02:47:34):
a long haul trucker. Our new ceo CB community, Oh,
what's the hell's the convoy? Remember that I'm trying to
remember the name of the brand. Cobra. Cobra was the
brand that everybody had for CB radio. Yeah, Cobra, Yeah,
you get him at RadioShack.
Speaker 8 (02:47:53):
This guy was selling Cobra CBS until three weeks ago
and look at him now he's running target.
Speaker 1 (02:48:00):
Yeah, how about that? What do you guys think about
ten for I don't know what do we think about it? Frank, Hey,
you got your YIPI zepper around here, snow sneak on
your tail. You're talking to the wombat. Hey, come on back,
(02:48:20):
phantom over lord. This is quick draw rig. I'm running
target now what I'm running target? I am the man
at Target. Now, I run that whole thing. The Red
and White company where they talk to you if you're
within four feet of the very same road. Quicksilver, Right,
(02:48:42):
there was my idea. You got your ears on? I
said ten and four and they said that I was
just joking around. They said it was amazing. Copy. Oh

Now I must leave you as the Brady bunch is
on and I find four of those children incredibly arousing.

Be careful of what you do. Big brother is watching you.
Be circumspect and discreet, stay light on your mental feet.

Ruthie's Table 4
For more than 30 years The River Cafe in London, has been the home-from-home of artists, architects, designers, actors, collectors, writers, activists, and politicians. Michael Caine, Glenn Close, JJ Abrams, Steve McQueen, Victoria and David Beckham, and Lily Allen, are just some of the people who love to call The River Cafe home. On River Cafe Table 4, Rogers sits down with her customers—who have become friends—to talk about food memories. Table 4 explores how food impacts every aspect of our lives. “Foods is politics, food is cultural, food is how you express love, food is about your heritage, it defines who you and who you want to be,” says Rogers. Each week, Rogers invites her guest to reminisce about family suppers and first dates, what they cook, how they eat when performing, the restaurants they choose, and what food they seek when they need comfort. And to punctuate each episode of Table 4, guests such as Ralph Fiennes, Emily Blunt, and Alfonso Cuarón, read their favourite recipe from one of the best-selling River Cafe cookbooks. Table 4 itself, is situated near The River Cafe’s open kitchen, close to the bright pink wood-fired oven and next to the glossy yellow pass, where Ruthie oversees the restaurant. You are invited to take a seat at this intimate table and join the conversation.
