Speaker 2 (00:43):
Here we go, he'll add, he'll be trying.

Speaker 7 (00:44):
It's the Allen Cox Show on one hundred point seven
double U m m as Hey.

Speaker 2 (01:10):
What's going on? Good afternoon? Welcome. My name is Alan Cox.
Thanks for being here. What's good? Tell me that Rob
Anthony's right over there too. What's up?

Speaker 4 (01:23):
Man?

Speaker 2 (01:24):
And let's see what we can see? Shall we?

Speaker 8 (01:28):
Two?

Speaker 9 (01:28):
One six five seven eight one double oh seven? If
you want to join us eight hundred and three four
eight one double oh seven text me. If you like
three five you can listen to the show, you can
watch the show, you can do both. There's probably nobody
that watches the show with no audio, so be redundant
to say you can watch the show and listen to
the show. Anybody on our YouTube channel is doing both.

(01:51):
I have to think maybe not. I'm not telling you
how to consume miss crap uh that you manage to
if you listen on the iHeartRadio app that's where we
dropped the cr then let us know where you're doing it.
If that happens to be out of state. I got
a letter from Sean who is in Bedford. He goes, hey,

(02:14):
I was in a local radio chat room this morning
and somebody said that Dick from Dayton had passed away.
Oh no, Now I didn't hear anything about this, And
I wrote Sean back, and I go, ah, that is
news to me.

Speaker 5 (02:26):
Boy.

Speaker 9 (02:27):
I'm because the beauty part of Dick in over the years,
we've lost listeners and we've really haven't found out until
much further down the line. The flip side of that
is that because Dick from Dayton calls every frigging radio
station with it at four hundred mile of radius, that
word's going to get around pretty quickly. Somebody's going to

(02:48):
find out if that was the case, But I wrote
him back, I said, I haven't heard anything about that.
We just talked to him on Monday, I think, which
doesn't mean anything, right. I mean, he could have hung
up the phone and cacked out, But it also could
have been somebody just kind of you know, dicking around
or you know, being Johnny I know something that you
don't know, I hope, but I don't know.

Speaker 2 (03:08):
Yeah, I hope not too.

Speaker 9 (03:09):
But again, there's simply no way that we would get
that information, probably in a timely manner, because you know,
who would have hit us up if that happened.

Speaker 2 (03:21):
I don't know.

Speaker 9 (03:22):
And pity the poor person who does have to apprize
all of the local radio media personalities when Dick finally
does pass. That's like a day's pay right there. Right,
they'd be calling me and may be calling every other
friggin show this guy calls. But I didn't hear anything
anything about that. But of course, if we did get

(03:45):
that kind of word, this audience would well, I was
gonna say, you'd be the first to know, you'd be
the first to know from me. You probably be the
four hundredths to know in general, But who knows the
only person I think that we would hear, probably directly
from next to Ken might be drunk Sue, because you
know she calls us with some frequency. But my prediction

(04:07):
is it get drunk Sue is going to outlive all
of us. I don't think bunyons are fatal, no, and
so that's the only thing that I would be worried about.
She is like the T one thousand, right, you think
something takes her down and she gets right back up
and more power tour ny. Now, I was more interested

(04:27):
in hearing the story of an accidental DM that.

Speaker 2 (04:31):
Rob got, and I'll tell you what that is.

Speaker 9 (04:34):
You might recall a couple of months ago when our
own Daniel Stansbury was sexting a young woman and accidentally
sent one to Rob. Yep, they crossed the streams, as
it were.

Speaker 4 (04:50):
This document ain't gonna sign itself, and I said, you're right,
and I'm not.

Speaker 9 (04:55):
Signing it either, and I don't think this was meant
for me.

Speaker 2 (04:58):
Yeah.

Speaker 9 (05:00):
Well, that's an embarrassing situation because you've just cracked the
door open a little bit, you know, obviously to your
sexting style. But then you send it to somebody who
is you know, a direct superior that sucks too, And
it's happened one more time.

Speaker 2 (05:16):
Not from a staff.

Speaker 4 (05:17):
Member, though, No, this was from a fan of the
show sent me a picture of her boobs. Yeah, and
then said oops, and then omg, omg, omg, not for you,
not for you, omg. Oops, And I said, all good,
no harm, no foul, already deleted.

Speaker 2 (05:36):
Thanks.

Speaker 9 (05:36):
So who's sending? Who's sending nudes in DMS? Wouldn't you
fix that to summer? I would think, Yeah, I would think.
And I also would think.

Speaker 4 (05:44):
The first thing that I would do if I sent
an accidental image of my privates is I would hit
that little button called unsend. If I didn't want anyone
to have it or see it, I would unsend it. Now,
I will say, based upon the approximate age of this person,
I'm guessing they know where the unsend button is ap

(06:06):
here to be mid to late thirties, is my guess.
Somewhere around there.

Speaker 9 (06:11):
You're dancing around, You're you're inferring her age based on
the perkiness of the photo.

Speaker 4 (06:16):
Well, no, she follows me on Instagram, so I can
see her page. You know who I know who she is,
and obviously I wouldn't share it. I was going to
send it to you and say, oh my god, Lo
this like the just the screenshot of the thing, and
I'm like, you know what, if it was an accident,
I don't want to be that guy.

Speaker 2 (06:32):
Yeah, I don't need that, that's fine.

Speaker 4 (06:33):
It was just very I didn't want to call BS
on it being an accident. But it just seems to
me that if I were to send an accidental nude
unsend is a very very easy tool when you realize
what you've done. Instead of OMG, sorry not for you,
I think they were waiting for the oh, it's no
big deal. Plus you got a great rack on you,

(06:56):
you know what I mean. And I didn't go down
that road. I was just like, oh, it's okay, it's
all good, no harm, no foul, didn't even no big deal.
I'd already deleted, So I I don't know. I mean,
what do you think accident?

Speaker 9 (07:07):
Well, I just want to make something very clear for
that guy who got really angry with me yesterday.

Speaker 2 (07:12):
I hope it's not a hip of violation.

Speaker 10 (07:14):
Rob.

Speaker 4 (07:16):
That's right me saying it. Yeah, that's true. It could
be a hippote. Either of us are medical professionals. I
just wanted to make sure that that guy knows that.

Speaker 2 (07:24):
I know.

Speaker 9 (07:27):
I think it's no harm, no foul. This kind of
stuff happens all the time. Usually are not fortunate enough
to get a pair of jugs. Usually it's something you know.
What's even worse is if you send a message to
somebody kind of talking shrimp on somebody else and you
send it to that person. That's a stickier situation to
get you stuff out of. There's no way out of that. No,

(07:47):
but uh, hell sorry that went for you. Yeah, it
was no big deal.

Speaker 4 (07:50):
I'm not And again, I mean, I'm never going to
say please, I don't want to see boobs, right, that's
not my point.

Speaker 9 (07:55):
People text the show all the time, and it's very
clear that those texts aren't for me. And sometimes they'll
be like, oops, lol, that was from my wife or whatever.
And because our text platform doesn't take photos, right, it's
not it doesn't rise to the level of anything like that.

Speaker 4 (08:10):
But I'll see text all the time and I'll be like,
that's not that. I don't think that's for me.

Speaker 9 (08:14):
Yeah, I'm in no way of Some of them are
more passive aggressive than others.

Speaker 4 (08:18):
I just questioned the sincerity of it being a joke.
That's all like, or excuse me, not a joke, an accident,
an accident, you know what I mean? Like, I, I
don't know. I think there's ways out of that. I
think it was.

Speaker 9 (08:29):
Maybe this is maybe this is someone who is so
comfortable with sending booby picks that it's really at the
end of the day, doesn't really care who gets them.

Speaker 4 (08:37):
I mean, I cares, but not to the point where
she's like, oh my god, I'm so sorry. She's like,
what happened? We're all adults.

Speaker 2 (08:42):
No I said that.

Speaker 4 (08:43):
She said, OMG, so sorry about Like it was like, yeah, instant,
like a bunch of them.

Speaker 2 (08:47):
The thing came in. I saw it. I was like
whoa And then.

Speaker 9 (08:50):
OMG was it litwell like stage?

Speaker 2 (08:53):
The photo? For me, it was like it was a
mirror shot. Mirror okay, so it.

Speaker 4 (08:56):
Was a candid photo taken from a mean you didn't
see the face right down?

Speaker 2 (09:01):
Nice are very okay, very nice.

Speaker 4 (09:03):
I gotta give kudos for that, ohn chl Yes, okay,
But again, the reaction to that shouldn't just you don't
get like the OMG new new message, So sorry, OMG,
l O l O MG.

Speaker 2 (09:23):
Can't believe I did that.

Speaker 9 (09:25):
I just think like, well, even if it wasn't, I
nothing about this makes me think that she did it
on purpose. But it certainly doesn't sound like she has
anything to worry about either.

Speaker 4 (09:34):
Oh for sure, Well she and again knowing like my
instant thing was I I deleted it.

Speaker 2 (09:39):
You know what I mean?

Speaker 4 (09:39):
I told her instantly like it's already gone, no harm,
no foul. It's exactly what I said.

Speaker 2 (09:44):
Rob, why are you winking at me?

Speaker 4 (09:45):
Over?

Speaker 2 (09:46):
And I was shut up? Are your why are your
fingers crossed?

Speaker 11 (09:52):
Shut up?

Speaker 4 (09:53):
No? I deleted everything. Oh, Brian t shirt out of it.
Brian already has some thoughts. Look in, that's not the song, Brian,
that's not the song.

Speaker 2 (10:07):
It should be Hot in the City, Brian. This guy,
he's always playing.

Speaker 9 (10:12):
Fast and loose with the true visiting one William Broad.

Speaker 2 (10:18):
Come on, well listen.

Speaker 9 (10:21):
Out of all of the accidental messages you could have gotten,
that one ain't bad.

Speaker 2 (10:25):
Not at all.

Speaker 4 (10:26):
No. Again, in no way was I upset by it.
I was just questioning, questioning the uh was.

Speaker 2 (10:33):
It truly an accent? Correct?

Speaker 4 (10:34):
Because it felt like it was. I don't even think fishing.
I think it was more like I'm gonna show this
guy my cans. Oh, that's what I think it was
that I think so or knowing like, look, man, I'm
not secretive about my love of boobs.

Speaker 2 (10:49):
We talk about it.

Speaker 4 (10:50):
So I think maybe she was like, hey, listen, I'll
take they'll do this guy a solid and then I'll
procure you.

Speaker 2 (10:56):
Gotta have it moist.

Speaker 9 (10:58):
All right, Well, she's listener to the show, she's probably
gonna follow up with another DM.

Speaker 4 (11:02):
Go hey, fay, I'm sure there will be it wasn't
you know again, And whether it was or it wasn't,
I'm not someone that's gonna do anything about it.

Speaker 2 (11:10):
I just thought it was interesting and worth bringing up.

Speaker 9 (11:12):
There you go, No sense crying over spilled milk.

Speaker 2 (11:16):
Hey ever, a body.

Speaker 4 (11:18):
I love Brian's version of Hot in the City, by
the way, that is, that's like top five favorite Brian looking.

Speaker 2 (11:30):
Yeah, never heard that one.

Speaker 9 (11:32):
Never heard the cowardly lion whip.

Speaker 4 (11:34):
That one outran the call Cox Show.

Speaker 12 (11:38):
On one one of life's most pressing questions.

Speaker 2 (11:46):
What do I like about Allen Cock?

Speaker 5 (11:49):
Finally answered, all right, I don't like much about you
the Allen Cox Show.

Speaker 2 (12:15):
I was reading the blurb with Kim Thale.

Speaker 9 (12:17):
You know, Soundgarden just got into the Rock and Roll
Hall of Fame just inducted Chris Cornell posthumously.

Speaker 2 (12:24):
God he would have been sixty this past spring and
probably still would have looked forty two.

Speaker 6 (12:29):
Yeah, yeah, And you know, they've got all these songs
that they did with Chris Cornell before he died eight
years ago, and they're like.

Speaker 9 (12:42):
We are in the process of finishing this album. There
will be a new Soundgarden album. Matt Cameron has hung
up his drumsticks. He's calling it a career. He spent
the past twenty years behind the drums for a Pearl Jam,
but course started with the I Think Green River and
then Soundgarden.

Speaker 2 (12:58):
But so he's kind of taken the helm of this
whole thing.

Speaker 9 (13:03):
I think a lot of those guys that are kind
of quietly retired of the Soundgarden guys. Tom Morello is
part of this conversation too, you know, with Audio Slave,
He's like, I have a whole lot of Chris Cornell
vocals for songs that never made it out. He seems
a bit more reticent to put it out there because
I'm sure he doesn't want to steal the thunder of
the Soundgarden.

Speaker 4 (13:23):
Guys well, and plus this sounds like it was much
further down the line. It sounds like he might have
some stuff from Cornell as far as vocals go.

Speaker 2 (13:30):
But I don't think anything produced like this. I think
had already been in the thing.

Speaker 4 (13:35):
Yeah, I think they had already been aways down the
road with this when it all happened, I couldn't tell.

Speaker 9 (13:40):
I mean, just reading both of those respective articles, it
sounded like they just had like a vault of vocals
and so they were putting them together. But Matt Cameron
says the Soundgarden is pretty close to being done. It
would be their first album since twenty twelve, which was
still five years but that was kind of considered their
comeback album. But they hadn't done one in a while.

(14:02):
They put out King Animal in twenty twelve, and it's
sounded like Soundgarden. Yeah, it was great.

Speaker 4 (14:07):
I will play every single song on that album, like
there's King Animal. No. When when this new one comes,
Oh yeah, yeah, of course I cannot wait to hear it.

Speaker 2 (14:16):
Yeah.

Speaker 9 (14:17):
And so Matt Cameron says that the band that the
band had definitely gone in a different direction on some
of the tracks, and I'm not quite sure what that means.
You know, Chris Cornell's solo stuff was much mellower than
anything he had done with either Soundgarden or Audio Slave.
He was doing covers and yeah, I remember that first

(14:38):
solo album was called Euphoria Morning, probably ninety seven. When
did that come out? A song called Can't Change.

Speaker 2 (14:45):
Me on it? It was great.

Speaker 9 (14:46):
He had, he was, he was, he cut his hair,
you know, he's like, it's gonna be a whole new thing.

Speaker 2 (14:55):
And so.

Speaker 9 (14:55):
But Soundgarden just getting inducted into the Rock and Roll
Hall of Fame, which you can watch. I think that
they have the entire thing over on Disney and Hulu.
I know that New Year's Day, ABC network, which is
part of that same company, is going to air like,
you know, the truncated two hour version with you know,

(15:16):
just the meat of the whole thing. But as a
diehard Sound Garden and Chris Cornell fan, that's good news
that they're I think it goes without saying, you know,
when these conversations are had that the band members go,
we're really excited for people to hear it. Just once
I'd have people go, I mean, yeah, it's fine. You know,

(15:38):
we're putting it together because we're all kind of bored
and we're not really sure what to do, and so
you know, we got down on all fours and started
scrounging through the vaults and yeah, and it is more
fun to think about vaults because that is the language
it's still used. We've gone into the vaults. Yeah, and

(15:58):
we found some audio. It's just it's a giant hard drive.
But you know, back in the day, they're probably you know,
there was you had reels and you know, you had
analog tape in temperature controlled environments, rob yep, so you'd
have vaults, not like bank vaults, but you'd have a
you know, now we go in into the vaults means, yeah,
we opened up a bunch of pro tool sessions and

(16:19):
there was some really good stuff in there.

Speaker 2 (16:22):
We're going to put those together.

Speaker 9 (16:24):
I don't imagine that as devoted as they were to
having a particular sound. I can't imagine the sound Garden
was still recording to eight track as it were in studio.

Speaker 4 (16:34):
No, but there is something to be said for some
of those analog recording sounds.

Speaker 2 (16:37):
I agree, there may be some of that, you know.

Speaker 9 (16:39):
I agree, it's just that digital audio production has gotten
so advanced that you can just replicate that sound in
No one's stilizer.

Speaker 2 (16:48):
Yeah.

Speaker 4 (16:50):
Well, that's what I always laughed about, you know, when
people would do reissues and remasters and things like that.
So they'd take the original recordings of led Zeppelin four
and they would take the tape and they would put
it all and they would remaster it, and they would
re release it, and we would buy it in droves
and talk about how great it sounded. Right, it's still
processed and compressed audio by the time you get it,

(17:11):
you know what I mean. Like, you're not buying the
master tape, You're getting a secondhand recording of that.

Speaker 2 (17:17):
So no matter what, it's always going to be degraded.

Speaker 9 (17:20):
Well, listen, Rob, I have to think that the cost,
that the price point for us buying copies of the
master tapes would just be astronomical.

Speaker 4 (17:30):
I've always wanted like those are some of my favorite
videos to watch, Like the video of George Harrison's son
and who was it?

Speaker 2 (17:38):
Who was he with?

Speaker 4 (17:40):
Wasn't it might have been maybe one of John Lennon's
sons or something. They were sitting together in a studio
and they found that hidden part of here comes the Sun.
There's a whole hidden guitar. Oh no, it was Sir George.
It was his son, George Harrison's son, George Harrison. And
is it George Harris? Uh No, what's his name, Harry? No, anyway,

(18:06):
it's him and the guy who did all their who
produced all their stuff. George was their manager, George Martin Martin.
Danny Harrison.

Speaker 2 (18:13):
It was Danny Harrison and.

Speaker 9 (18:15):
Danny spelled d h A n I because you know
George Harrison loved.

Speaker 2 (18:20):
Uh the the.

Speaker 9 (18:23):
Well, who's the guy the Maja Shri rajnich? Who is
he into the Mahshi MAHESHOGI?

Speaker 2 (18:29):
There you go? Yes, So that's so.

Speaker 4 (18:32):
It's him and George Martin's son are sitting together and
he goes, oh, that's right, and he pots up this
hidden guitar part of Here Comes the Sun. And it's
it's incredible because all of the stuff that exists just
sitting on those tapes, you know, just because it's the master,
it's all there. So everything that was taken out is
still just sitting on these masters.

Speaker 2 (18:53):
It's incredible to watch. I love stuff like that.

Speaker 9 (18:57):
I mean that requires a deep dive and I don't
usually take the deep dive.

Speaker 4 (19:02):
But see, he knew it was there, you know what
I mean. So if George Martin knows, oh that's right,
we did this and he hits a button, it's there, right, It's.

Speaker 2 (19:10):
A cool thing. You should watch it. Someday. I'll tell you.

Speaker 9 (19:12):
I still haven't watched the Gordon Lightfoot documentary and tell
you what I did do though, Rob is I watched
the Billy Joel documentary over an HBO. Did you watch
it for the second time? Five hours long?

Speaker 2 (19:26):
Rob? And I just could not get enough.

Speaker 9 (19:29):
I said, I'm gonna watch this again, but I'm gonna
watch it with a more trained eye. You know, it's
like a film they talk about, well, it really warrants
repeat viewings because you've missed so much.

Speaker 4 (19:42):
The first way through. You slept your way through it.
That's why I fell asleep for two hours of the five.

Speaker 9 (19:48):
I thought to myself, think of all the things I
caught with one eye open, and if I watch it
with both of them open, it's really going to be
a revelation to me.

Speaker 2 (19:56):
Gripping your pillow tight, I'm trying to.

Speaker 9 (19:58):
Get my way through the Burns Country music documentary because
he's getting ready to drop one on the Revolutionary War,
and I got to tell you, I am less enthused
about the historical stuff. And I know that that's the
I should say American history. That's the bulk of what
he does. And I realized that that country music is

(20:19):
American history too. But it's like, obviously that's a musical component.

Speaker 4 (20:23):
I can't believe you're committing time to watching that and
make country music documentary.

Speaker 2 (20:28):
I will. I just need to make myself a note.

Speaker 4 (20:31):
I need to put it on my I need to
put it on my watch list. Minute documentary. I gotta
remember to put that on my I'm gonna watch our
seventeen of music. I don't like, oh this episode, but
it's dive in on Luke Bryant.

Speaker 9 (20:47):
It's no, no, no, listen. I don't know how long
the documentary is because Ken Burns, it's self explanatory. They're long.
I get that they're long. I don't know that they're
all the same length. I don't know that he devotes
the same time to the history of country music as
he does.

Speaker 2 (21:03):
The Vietnam War.

Speaker 4 (21:04):
Yes, okay, because they're done for Ken Burns.

Speaker 2 (21:10):
And viewers like me.

Speaker 9 (21:12):
From what the title card said, Rob no, I am.
I'm interested in the history of music and all of
its forms. And the fascinating thing to me about the
history of country music is how diverse its origins are
with respect to now it's kind of it's very, very

(21:34):
funneled into.

Speaker 2 (21:34):
A very specific thing.

Speaker 4 (21:36):
Nine hundred and sixty minutes sixteen hours is how long
this documentary is. There are nine episodes, sixteen hours of
a genre of music you don't particularly care for. Well,
I don't like it currently, but I'm still in the
I'm still in the early days. I'm still in like

(21:58):
the depression in World War Two, and I'm still in
the Carter family, you know, going back to like the thirties.

Speaker 2 (22:06):
When we get into.

Speaker 4 (22:10):
Probably towards the end as well, I'll be like, Okay,
I don't care about Randy Travis and the Juds, but I.

Speaker 2 (22:17):
Am interesting in finish it up. I will.

Speaker 9 (22:20):
God, he did one on jazz too. I can't wait
to watch that.

Speaker 2 (22:24):
Listen. We've got all this time off, you know.

Speaker 9 (22:26):
Our last live show of the year is going to
be December the sixteenth, and then we'll be off for
the rest of the year, and I plan Robin devoting
a lot of that time to reassessing things right, kind
of do a post mortem on the year professionally and
personally and exposing myself and exposing myself rob to the

(22:53):
genius of Ken Burns and why not?

Speaker 4 (22:58):
Oh, speaking of country music, did you watch the Cmas
last night?

Speaker 6 (23:02):
Out?

Speaker 9 (23:02):
I didn't even know that the Cmas were on last
neither did I until I woke up this morning and
watched a performance by Stephen Wilson Junior.

Speaker 4 (23:12):
Is he had not seen that he did a cover
of stand By Me for his late father and uh
clear now where did where?

Speaker 2 (23:24):
Did you see this on my Instagram? Okay?

Speaker 9 (23:27):
Making the rounds? Uh huh, Okay, I don't.

Speaker 4 (23:29):
I don't know, uh who this dude is? Fully, I
mean I kind of have I know he was. This
was insane nationally televised.

Speaker 9 (23:47):
I mean, this is him doing this is not from
last night, but this is him.

Speaker 2 (23:51):
Doing this song. Oh, I don't know.

Speaker 9 (23:53):
Is it live at the print Shop?

Speaker 2 (23:55):
Which I think is just like.

Speaker 4 (23:56):
Okay, well then yeah, no, he did a version of
it last night by himself.

Speaker 2 (23:59):
He just walked out. It was insane how good it was, and.

Speaker 3 (24:06):
I just come.

Speaker 4 (24:11):
All right, anyway, I did not know that that was
on last night the CMAS. What if you, uh, while
you're watching your ridiculous documentary, take thirty seconds and watch
that performance from the CMAS. I would have never watched
it in a million years. But this dude is definitely
more rock. This is from this country. But to have

(24:34):
the balls also to walk out and do.

Speaker 6 (24:35):
This, be sure.

Speaker 9 (24:51):
You know what though that style, no disrespect to him
of that style of country singing now is the equivalent
of goat rock, oh, without question, with grunge, when everybody
was trying to emulate Eddie Vedder and then everybody was
ripping off Scott's stap and there.

Speaker 2 (25:04):
He's stinger rub grooves. Yeah.

Speaker 9 (25:06):
But see, there's a whole breed of country guys now
that they sing like they had their jaw wired shut.

Speaker 4 (25:12):
Yes, but I would say that most probably can't do
what that kid did last night. And I'm not one
to give compliments.

Speaker 2 (25:19):
Kitty looks like he's my age.

Speaker 4 (25:20):
Okay, well, I don't know how old he is.

Speaker 2 (25:22):
He's uh, what's his name? Steven was my age? He
was born July eleventh, seventy nine. There you go.

Speaker 4 (25:27):
He's forty six years old from Seymour, Indian and we're
just learning his name.

Speaker 9 (25:31):
Now, is this him coming out the gate? I mean,
was this his coming out in the cmas or is
he have no idea?

Speaker 4 (25:36):
I know nothing about him until last night, and I
watched that performance and I was blown away by it.

Speaker 2 (25:40):
He stid it for his dad. It says.

Speaker 9 (25:42):
His story is an unlikely journey from boxer and scientist
to singer songwriter, influenced by his late father. He boxed,
he earned a degree in micro biology, so it's no dummy,
and then he spent years as a scientist.

Speaker 4 (25:57):
So his father died September fifteenth, and he did that
performance last night, like to him, Okay, I it caught
me where I needed to be caught that for sure.
And I and I you know how I feel about
country music.

Speaker 9 (26:09):
His debut album was a double album called Son of Dad,
a twenty two song tribute to his father. All Right,
so he's got a hell of a story. I mean, Rob,
he's no Shaboozie.

Speaker 4 (26:21):
No, No, you're right, He's no Shaboozi. Nor is he
who is that country due a we witness song Oh
Tucker and Carlson low Cash, Low Cash, they were no
low cash or he's no low cash either. But I
was impressed. Man, I gotta give credit where credit is due.

Speaker 9 (26:39):
Yeah, no, listen, I'm glad that the guy is uh.
You know, he looks like a guy who got kicked
out of Weezer. Absolutely yeah, But I like people who
you know, they got a story behind him. And the
guy was a scientist. And then he goes, I'm gonna.

Speaker 2 (26:57):
This is how easy country music is. This is what
this guy.

Speaker 4 (27:00):
My debut out of the corner of my mouth, My
debut album is going to be twenty two songs out
the gate, a double album, and they're all going to
be spelling songs about my dad, and people are gonna
take me seriously. Again, not knowing country, I can't think
of anyone that sounds quite like.

Speaker 2 (27:16):
Him, you know what I mean.

Speaker 4 (27:17):
There are guys who do the mumble stuff you're talking about,
for sure, the mouth wired shut, whatever, but.

Speaker 8 (27:23):
He is uh.

Speaker 4 (27:24):
That was That's the only song I've ever heard him perform.
I know nothing about what he does, but that was impressive.
He was a golden glove boxer. Maybe his jaw is
wired shut that album.

Speaker 2 (27:35):
Maybe it is. His dad died in twenty eighteen. Oh
this is cool. What's happening with me?

Speaker 9 (27:39):
They've been digging around with the monitors all day because
they are upgrading some software or something. So it's we
have our logos going down and there's stuff that's not distracting.

Speaker 2 (27:50):
Yeah.

Speaker 9 (27:50):
No, I was in here working earlier and sound just
starts coming out and one of the monitors. I'm like,
I've been down here three years. I've never once heard
audio come out of the monitors. So the time is perfect,
but yeah, this is neat whatever. Anyway, speaking of you know,
the CMA's last night, but we were talking about soundgarding
in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. There's an
article about how the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame

(28:11):
inductions should only be in Cleveland because when you're in
New York or when you're in LA there's other stuff
to do, and people just aren't showing up the way
they would like them to write. John Sykes, who was
a longtime record executive and not the guitar player but
the suit and he's the chairman of the Rock and

(28:31):
Roll Hall of Fame, and a lot of people kind
of went a because he this year at the inductions,
he said that the ceremony was back in southern California
where it belongs.

Speaker 2 (28:41):
Yeah, it's good and anyway.

Speaker 9 (28:43):
But people who are there to cover the thing were like.

Speaker 4 (28:46):
Yeah, there were a lot of empty seats, you know,
and in Cleveland, say what you want.

Speaker 9 (28:51):
Obviously it would be a bigger deal in Cleveland.

Speaker 4 (28:54):
But that's what you want. You want a full house.
You want an ass in every seat.

Speaker 9 (28:58):
When you're gonna do the Rock and Roll Hall of
Fame ceremony, because it's five hours long, you're live streaming it.
You don't want to be in a situation where you
need seat fillers. I understand it's easier to get people
to come when they just have to go, you know,
when it's in their town. But they're like, yeah, there's
a case to be made for having the thing in
Cleveland every time because you can sell out the Rocket

(29:20):
Arena instead of doing the Peacock Theater in la which,
by the way, seven thousand seats and it wasn't sold
out because people were.

Speaker 2 (29:29):
Like, eh, it's fine.

Speaker 9 (29:31):
Or when they're in New York they're like, yeah, they
don't sell that out either. They're like, we have attendance issues.
When it's in Brooklyn, Cleveland, there's an ass in every seat.
Of course there is, because this is where it should be.

Speaker 4 (29:42):
Yeah, and again, now you've got that Sykes guy works
for this company, does he really? Yeah, he's one of
the mukeety MUCKs. At the time, I knew he used
to be. I didn't think he was hereing here. I
thought he left to go to the Rock Hall. No,
I think he's pretty sure he's still involved. These always
in every one of those idiot pictures you always see, yeah, you.

Speaker 2 (29:56):
Know, standing around doing nothing taking pictures with artists. Yeah.

Speaker 9 (30:01):
So, I mean when artists come here for the rock
coll inductions, they're always like, this is amazing because they're
used to people being jaded in LA and New York,
you know, so they should.

Speaker 2 (30:12):
Yeah, that's a that's a while.

Speaker 9 (30:13):
Well, I mean obviously he's pandering to the crowd, but
but still that's a.

Speaker 4 (30:17):
That's not something you pander with. It's just to everybody else. Yeah,
it's a weird take, you know. So you said f
you to New York and to Cleveland in that one sentence,
and anywhere else you plan on doing it in the future.

Speaker 9 (30:28):
And by the way, neither New York nor LA give
a fat frog's ass if the Rock Hall inductions are there. No,
if they go We're only going to do them in Cleveland.
You could do it here for twenty years in Cleveland.
When get bored of it because it's a cool thing
to have, they don't care.

Speaker 2 (30:42):
In LA or New York got it all.

Speaker 9 (30:43):
They go, Oh, if I'm not going to this, maybe
I'll go to the rock Hall inductions.

Speaker 5 (30:47):
The ellen Cox Show on one hundred.

Speaker 2 (30:53):
The ellen Cox Show a sore tooth.

Caves lose last night by ten one fourteen, one oh
four at the hands of Yao Ming and the Houston Rockets. Boy,
that guy is unstoppable, KD more like it. He's still there,
is Yao. Yeo Ming's retired. Yeah, he doesn't played, but
he's not an older man, right, isn't he still a
young dude?

Speaker 2 (32:13):
Yao Ming, he's gotta be he's not. He's young.

Speaker 9 (32:16):
He's forty five years old. Okay, golly, he looks like
he put on a couple of LB's post retirement.

Speaker 2 (32:24):
Well he could stand to. Yeah.

Speaker 9 (32:30):
So the Calves will they're at home tomorrow night and
Sunday before they hit the road to go to Toronto.
They'll play the Pacers tomorrow night. That is, uh, Caitlin
Clark and the Indiana Pacers. Right she played for the Pacers, Yes,
Larry Bird, Yeah, Pacers, Calves one of those NBA Cup
games tomorrow night and than Sunday night at six they

(32:51):
will play the La Clippers before they hit the road.

Speaker 2 (32:55):
And you can hear all of it here of course
on WMMS.

Speaker 9 (32:58):
Reme'mber the guy that called us a couple of days
ago and said that to get back at a douchey manager,
he went to where that set manager kept a couple
of cans of Monster energy drink, and the guy who
called us went knuckled deep in his poop tube and
rimmed the guy's Monster cans with his finger. It was nice,

(33:20):
he called back. I guess maybe for the purposes of clarification.
I'm not sure that we needed any, but maybe he
felt compelled to explain himself further.

Speaker 14 (33:28):
Okay, so I was listening to Monday's show and I
heard you played my call about the poop monster. Can
it's funny to clarify something, maybe give more of an
insight about this manager. So several months later, after the
incident that I did, he got fired from the job
because he kept creeping on to underach cashier's Then a

(33:51):
week later after he got fired, he came back and
kept bothering one and would not leave until the cops came.
So that was thirty years old bothering a sixteen year old.
So I think what I did is pretty justified. Hopefully Rob,
I did not lose any points. I hopefully I gain
some points back there. Captain click and Uh yeah, I

(34:15):
just want.

Speaker 4 (34:15):
To captain This guy is really really allow bong shower bongs.

Speaker 9 (34:22):
Thank you, pal appreciate it. Oh, I don't know that
one has anything to do with the other.

Speaker 4 (34:26):
Right, you established initially that the guy was a real douche, Right,
it doesn't really matter in what form the douche iness took,
But you're also a douche, Like do.

Speaker 2 (34:36):
You rimmed his can with your stink finger?

Speaker 15 (34:39):
Right?

Speaker 9 (34:40):
There's to me, there's no there's no extenuating circumstances where
everybody would collectively go oh, well, then that was the
appropriate response. He was creeping on teenage cashiers. Yeah, that's
most of who's working at places like that, And yes,
that's gross, but that's got nothing to do with rimming
his monster canh.

Speaker 4 (34:58):
No, no, no, no, I mean listen, does he deserve
to have bad things happen to him? It sure sounds
that way, But we're only getting on the side of
the story, right right, you playing tickle on the stink
and fuck in rubbing that on his h on his can. Yeah, no,
that's that That makes you a douche too.

Speaker 9 (35:19):
Yeah, what if that guy got really sick? What if
he got like e Coli poisoning or something from a
shower bong stink finger.

Speaker 4 (35:29):
Yeah, and wouldn't you know it, he came back two
days later and he had pink ont Oh. I also
farted on the other dyebout that god, he got c
diff he had to get it.

Speaker 9 (35:41):
Turns out wouldn't be funny if the actual story was
just exponentially more sad, like shower Bong's like, yeah, it's
a doude, so I put my stink finger in his can.
But the real story is the guy was like infirmed
for the rest of it, right, he had like a
brain worm or something like RFK junior, you know. And uh,
he's like, oh, and he came back can he was,
you know, and they trace it all back to his

(36:02):
monster cans.

Speaker 2 (36:03):
Yeah. Oh, this guy was so weird.

Speaker 4 (36:06):
He was all dizzy and confused, and they said that
his heartbeat was going crazy and hippotitus.

Speaker 2 (36:13):
He didn't know what was going on.

Speaker 4 (36:15):
Yeah, yeah, man, two things can be true. That guy
is an a hole, without question, but so are you.

Speaker 9 (36:24):
I just think that's a really gross thing to do,
a really gross thing to do because you can picture listen,
it's low impact, right, it's not labor intensive but you
can picture him do. And by the way, then you're
walking around with a stink finger all day.

Speaker 2 (36:40):
Well you go wash, but well you do, but.

Speaker 9 (36:42):
Listen, but you still you're not gonna get You've still
done it. You're gonna wash your hand. But like you said,
I think you said it the other day. You pick
up the can, you go for a sip. That is
wall that stinks. That's not normal.

Speaker 4 (36:55):
What's wrong with this can? Let me check my other one.
Oh no, I'm not gonna drink either. I'm not drink
either of these. But someone has molested my can. Yeah,
and that's a phrase. You never want to put these
in a very dirty place. They stink like.

Speaker 2 (37:11):
The back of a Volkswagen. Yes, m Heyan's around.

Speaker 16 (37:17):
This is Eric and Pennhill is calling from the Allgaon
County Department of Devotion to Accuracy. You talked about Mario
Lopez's wife being from Pittsburgh, and you mentioned that the
Ross Park Mall has been closed down. It was still there,
but Parkway Center Mall and Century three Mall been torn down.
Pittsburgh Mills needs torn down, and Walmart bought Manrueby Mall
and they're gonna tear it down because that's where George

(37:39):
Ramier was shot on the dead very very sad.

Speaker 2 (37:42):
Anyway, I hate the show.

Speaker 9 (37:44):
They're gonna tear down and Rouville Mall out there and
out there and okay, so Parkway Center, Parkway Center Mall.
I think I lived by there when I first moved
to Pittsburgh. I think that was the one they had
like a team, the club. That was where my Giant
Eagle was. That was the first taste I got of
Blue Laws there in Pittsburgh when you move and you

(38:06):
do your first big shop and I was asking them
where the beer and wine aisle was and they had
no idea what I was talking about. And I thought
it was in the twilight Zone. And that's when I
learned how they do booze and alcohol. That's how Massachusetts
is too. Yeahah, yep, the Commonwealth. Well they have beer
and wine now they do.

Speaker 6 (38:25):
Now.

Speaker 9 (38:25):
You had to drag them kicking and screaming into the
twentieth century.

Speaker 2 (38:28):
Yeah, we had package stores, call them packees. Yeah.

Speaker 4 (38:31):
That was where we got all of our stuff. Everything
was in one particular store.

Speaker 2 (38:34):
Yeah, you had to go to a state store. To
get booze.

Speaker 9 (38:36):
You had to go to a beer world. You go
to a beer distributorship in Pennsylvania to get beer.

Speaker 4 (38:41):
I think all of New England was that way because
I remember probably New Hampshire had state like discount stores,
so you would go there and you would get incredible
prices on stuff, but it was all mandated by the
state and you couldn't there were no independent liquor stores.

Speaker 9 (38:54):
Then there were some states who went to complete opposite way,
like Michigan has party stores with drive throughs. You know,
you just pulled right up. Here'll give you a handle
of something. Yeah, now you know what I don't understand here.
Maybe you can bantum physics. Well that obviously, yes, but
something I don't understand here. In Ohio Monroe, you shouldn't
be You can't buy spirits in grocery stores and stuff,

(39:18):
right like you it has to be a state store
I for you to buy liquor and boot that kind
of stuff, right, I guess. But so then like if
you go to a target, they have some but they're
like lower alcohol content, like right diluted or something.

Speaker 4 (39:31):
Like sometimes you'll see like a I don't know, Frangelico,
or you'll see uh a kalua. Maybe it depends on
the store, but in the Meyer where I am.

Speaker 9 (39:41):
But like, if you go they have they have like
the the liquor cave at Giant Eagle.

Speaker 4 (39:45):
Yes, you go back into that room and it's all boom.
That's totally different. I know that that's that's all run
by the State State store thing, right, But if you're
in the aisle, like where they sell the wine and
stuff like that, they have plastic bottles that pop off vodka.
Isn't that just vodka? Is it the same thing? Like
why wouldn't they sell gray goose?

Speaker 9 (40:02):
Then I don't know, I haven't seen that. Yeah, I
end up going to like a liquor stic I do too.

Speaker 4 (40:08):
I'm just saying I saw this shopping the other day
when I was in the in the grocery store. But
so I couldn't understand. I'm like, what's the cutoff for
you to be able to sell that in the regular
store because it's still technically just booze?

Speaker 9 (40:21):
Maybe because its bottom shelf. Well I was gonna say
maybe because well plastic Yeah, yes, okay, I don't know.
I mean, if you're in I don't know about that, yeah,
don't drinking pop off?

Speaker 4 (40:32):
But if I decided I wanted to make cuckoo juice
or something like that.

Speaker 2 (40:36):
That's what I would use to make it.

Speaker 9 (40:37):
Now, what's cuckoo juice?

Speaker 6 (40:39):
Like?

Speaker 4 (40:39):
You know, you get the big Gatorade gigantic Gatorade coolers
and you fill them up with.

Speaker 2 (40:45):
Oh yeah, okay, all the different juices and you.

Speaker 9 (40:48):
Put you bought a garbage cam liner and a drum exactly, yeah,
just that jungle garbage.

Speaker 4 (40:53):
Yeah. Yeah, we would just call it cuckoo juice because
you'd drink enough of it and go cuckoo? Is that
what you Okay, that was the sequence of events. Go coock, Hey,
how's Rob feeling?

Speaker 2 (41:05):
Well, let me go check cock for cocoa puffs.

Speaker 4 (41:10):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (41:10):
You would throw everything at it. I see you.

Speaker 4 (41:13):
Whatever you had around you'd throw in and you had Look,
there's a bottle ever clear, let's dump that in there.

Speaker 2 (41:18):
You still got that corn alcohol? Yeah, all right, dumped
that in? What else?

Speaker 4 (41:22):
Well, here's the bottle of pop off, throw it in
and then you'd be puking your brain's out for three
days after. But you'd get drunk as hell that night
and have a blast Alan three Alan. The poop can
is gross, But that manager deserved it. I'm not saying
he didn't deserve it, but I just think if you
do it, it makes you a douchebag too.

Speaker 9 (41:40):
And I guess I don't now Again, I grew up Catholic,
so I don't even understand the concept of deserve. But yeah,
I just I don't know. I mean, that's an extra
level of something, Alan. It reminds me of Michael Rooker
and the chocolate covered pretzels in mal Rats. Remember that
the palm h yuck this stink finger. Yeah, Alan, I

(42:05):
knew a guy in college who stuck his roommate's toothbrush
in his b hole because he caught in. He caught
him staring at him while he was sleeping. Yeah, that's
all that. I don't know, man, I don't I'm not
down with all that fraddy crap, all that dumb stuff
like who cares? So a guy's brushing his teeth with
a toothbrush that you put in your ass?

Speaker 4 (42:23):
Yeah, okay, I washed myst spokes with this one and
handed it back to him. You wouldn't believe it.

Speaker 9 (42:30):
Lower proof alcohol sold in the regular stores forty proof
is the cutoff. People are telling me that stuff is
only forty proof. Okay, So that's why.

Speaker 2 (42:37):
All right.

Speaker 9 (42:37):
Yeah, Like, like I said, that's probably the same the Target.
You at Target and they have like the you know,
lower proof or diluted. I found that out the hard
way years ago. Forty proof. Okay, I just mentioned Kalua.
Now I want a white Russian. You know, Rob, It's
a diverse world, and if you stay so narrowly focused,
you're never going I guess white Russian is redundant.

Speaker 2 (42:59):
Isn't it.

Speaker 4 (43:00):
I would imagine so not a lot of black ones,
but they do make it. You can have a black Russian.
You can order that that's just without the cream. Is
that what it is?

Speaker 2 (43:07):
Yeah? Yeah, so it's just kalua and vodka, I think.

Speaker 9 (43:14):
Okay, I've never had one. I only know them from
the Big Lebowski. You've never had one. I've never had
a white Russian. Do you like milk or do you
drink milk? I only have milk with cereal and that's
not very frequent. Do you like kalua? I literally don't
know if I've ever had kalua. I'm sure I've had
a mud slide. I'm sure I have, yes, but it's
that vodka and usually not milk, usually use cream. But

(43:37):
I used to use milk because it's what I always had. Okay,
and you just put those three things together. It doesn't
sound terrible.

Speaker 2 (43:42):
It's great. Yeah, Okay, I'm gonna go next door and
get one.

Speaker 9 (43:47):
People cannot stop dying at Disney. I knew you were
going to say that they've had five people in a
month die at Disney.

Speaker 2 (43:56):
You know, for a while it was kind of a
novel story.

Speaker 9 (43:59):
We were like, Oh, they've had the dead body of Disney,
and then the next week they were like, oh, a
woman pulled up at the end of a ride and
she was dead. It's a small world where now they're
up to five. And I like how they refer to
it as an unusually active month. At disney World properties,

(44:20):
they found somebody dead who had seemingly jumped from the
balcony of their hotel. So they were, uh, two suicides.
Two people died from a medical emergency, and then one
just flat out somebody died.

Speaker 4 (44:36):
I just I think it's just getting more attention right
now because it's been talked about so much. Those places
are so big with such a volume of people. I
guarantee you this is normal. I bet you it's spread out.
If you go over the year, I bet you the
death rate is the exact same as it was last year.

Speaker 2 (44:56):
You're probably right.

Speaker 9 (44:58):
It's just that we have so much much access to
information quickly and that you can communicate that information quickly, right,
So it's like you don't have to go find a
payphone to let somebody know that. Somebody does you know,
you get on your phone, or there's somebody working for
the park or whatever.

Speaker 2 (45:13):
You know, he put something online. Another guy's dead at Disney.

Speaker 9 (45:16):
The parks have apps, you know, their own apps where
you can send them a message or something.

Speaker 4 (45:21):
You see a lot of old people at Disney, man,
a lot of fat people at Disney, and you're walking
miles and miles and miles and miles.

Speaker 2 (45:27):
Heart explode.

Speaker 9 (45:28):
I mean, I've never been, but I know that it's
and we've talked to people who go, and I'm still
to this day completely flabbergasted by the adults who go
with the frequency that they do.

Speaker 4 (45:39):
But people who are not parents just love Disney. But
it's your money in your life. Do what you want.

Speaker 9 (45:43):
But for as expensive as it is and as time
consuming as it is to do anything that you want
to do, it is amazing to me that that many
people go now overall, I think you know, when they
were going through the whole like, oh, you're gonna people
are gonna boycott Disney over Trump and Jimmy Kimmel and

(46:05):
blah blah blah. It's like, you know, their hearts were
in the right place. But Disney makes the bulk of
its money on their theme parks, right the Disney streaming application,
that's not they're not printing money over there. Most of
their revenue comes to the theme parks, and attendance overalled
past few years has been down. The Trump economy has
made everything exponentially more expensive, and you weren't exactly starting

(46:29):
from a cheap spot with Disney to begin with, so
their attendance is down across the board. So the cynical
part of me goes, hey, listen, they're in the news.
They still spend a lot of money on you know,
they make a lot of money on those Disney cruises.
Those over the past few years have gotten You might
have noticed they're spending a lot more of their resources

(46:51):
pointed toward those cruises than to the parks because more
people are going on those cruises. So they have these
floating hotels with go kart tracks and you know, and
the guy from Modern Family. You're telling you how awesome
it is. But I think you're probably right. This is
getting attention because this has been in the past month,
but none of the articles that I was reading about

(47:15):
it extrapolated it out and said, well, this isn't really unusual.
They're writing it up as though it's kind of a
weird thing. So people are so I guess all I'm
trying to tell you is maybe you have a trip
to Disney in your immediate future. Maybe you're playing. You know,
these aren't things that people just do on a whim.
You have to plan these, especially of a family, and

(47:36):
so maybe twenty twenty six is a year that you
go to one of these Disney properties.

Speaker 2 (47:39):
All I'm trying to.

Speaker 9 (47:40):
Tell you is get your affairs in order, because you
don't know what might befall you. You don't know what
harm might come to you or God forfend a member
of your family or your immediate party.

Speaker 4 (47:57):
Didn't a kid get eaten at Disney by like an
alligator a couple of years ago, Boy, I hope that's true.
I'm almost positive. I think he was like one of
the Disney properties. I think he walked down to the
thing and got eaten right there and like on the property.

Speaker 2 (48:11):
That was like two years ago.

Speaker 9 (48:12):
Alligator kills boy on beach at Disney's Grand Floridian.

Speaker 4 (48:16):
Yeah, a two year old, Yes, yeah, he was downstandabys
now ten years ago.

Speaker 9 (48:22):
Yeah, it was ten Lane Graves, a two year old
boy twenty sixteen. The alligator, estimated between four and seven
feet long, grabbed the boy around the head and neck
and dragged him under water. The dad obviously goes right
into the water, but good luck getting anything out of
a gator's mouth. All he did was get his hands injured.
That was ten years ago. Jesus June twenty sixteenth.

Speaker 4 (48:45):
Wow.

Speaker 9 (48:46):
The family chose not to sue Disney, which means Disney
cut them a check, huge, huge, like Tracy Morgan hit
by Walmart truck money.

Speaker 4 (48:58):
I would imagine, or they just gave him a free trip.

Speaker 9 (49:03):
A lighthouse sculpture was placed at the resort. Boy, that's
what you want. I mean, it's listen. It's a nice gesture,
and it's frankly the least they could do. But you know,
they don't control the alligators. What did they do? They
put a lighthouse sculpture at the family started a foundation.

(49:23):
That's how you know they got paid. They started a foundation.
They the logo of the foundation was this lighthouse. They
put a memorial for the kid at the resort. So
now everybody who walks by that beach they go, oh,
that's where that kid got eaten by the gator.

Speaker 2 (49:39):
It's a fun reminder.

Speaker 4 (49:40):
Be messed up if it was just a thing from
Peter Pan.

Speaker 2 (49:46):
Yeah, alligator in that movie. Yeah.

Speaker 9 (49:49):
Some people theorizing that the family settled for probably about
ten million dollars.

Speaker 2 (49:54):
Oh see, I would have thought more.

Speaker 9 (49:55):
I would have thought more too, because Disney has to
go to them and go, hey, don't and any company
will immediately fight any kind of lawsuit, even if it's
a kid eaten by a gator, right because they just
have their people go, hey, we don't control the alligator,
or they'll blame the family or something like that. So
they must have really figured out that they were probably
pretty culpable or in a rare display of empathy, they

(50:20):
were just like.

Speaker 2 (50:20):
Let's just cut you a huge, huge check.

Speaker 9 (50:23):
Alan What would Dave sound like on Cuckoo Juice?

Speaker 2 (50:30):
Very exciting?

Speaker 12 (50:31):
Whoa The Alan Cox Show on one of its flowers,
willed loved ones.

Speaker 5 (50:43):
Past memories fade.

Speaker 8 (50:47):
But this thing just seems to go on for ever.

Speaker 2 (50:53):
The Alan Cox Show on.

Speaker 5 (50:56):
MMS.

Speaker 9 (51:07):
Calves lose to the Houston Rockets last night by ten
one fourteen to one oh four. Calves still killing it
though ten and six. They will play the Indiana Pacers
tomorrow night. They're off tonight, but they will host Indiana
tomorrow for one of those NBA Cup games, and then
Sunday night, the Clippers are in town before the Calves

(51:27):
end pretty lengthy homestand and hit the road. They'll play
the Toronto Raptors the beginning of next week.

Speaker 4 (51:33):
And the Pacers finally got their second win of the year.
They're two and thirteen.

Speaker 2 (51:37):
They suck.

Speaker 9 (51:38):
Oh, I didn't realize they were that bad. Oh yeah,
oh really? Yeah, holy smoke. Yeah, they beat up on
the Hornets last night. But yeah, they blow one twenty
seven to eighteen over the Hornets. Who was the first
team they beat? I must have been a minute ago.

Speaker 2 (51:54):
I can look back.

Speaker 9 (51:55):
Pacers lost to the Utah Jazz a couple of weeks ago,
one fifty one twenty eight. Jazz put up one hundred
and fifty two against them. They lost to the Phoenix
Suns one thirty three to ninety eight.

Speaker 4 (52:08):
They beat the Warriors on November first, there you go,
one fourteen one oh nine.

Speaker 9 (52:13):
So this was their second win last night. A bunch
of these games. They're not even putting up triple digits. Yeah, no,
they suck.

Speaker 2 (52:18):
Wow.

Speaker 4 (52:19):
Halliburton's out and that's their that was their dude, everything
was built around him. He's well, chen did us? Oh,
I see, I get it. Old school jokes. Uh oh.
If you listen to us on iHeartRadio, you can drop
us some messages there with a talkback button.

Speaker 17 (52:38):
Hey Allen, Hey rob Uh. Maybe this is apocryphal, but
isn't it true that nobody technically dies at Disney. I've
heard that, Like they don't pronounce you dead until you've
gotten off the property so that they can say that,
quote unquote, technically nobody has died at Disney.

Speaker 2 (52:59):
I don't know.

Speaker 17 (52:59):
Maybe it's it's true, maybe it's not. Hate the show.
Have a good weekend, guys.

Speaker 9 (53:03):
Oh, I like that thought though. I know right, it's like, no,
technically they're not dead. No, technically they are. Legally you're
saying they're not. Technically, yes, they are, very dead on
Disney's grounds.

Speaker 2 (53:15):
Oh, that'll be funny.

Speaker 4 (53:16):
He had his head sliced clean off, but he lived
for forty five minutes.

Speaker 9 (53:20):
Well, you want to talk about attention to detail. Imagine
someone deep in the bylaws of Disney, you know, park
theme park stuff, they go, hey, what if listen, people
are gonna die? Guys, Okay, it's just a fact of life.
What if we don't tell anybody until we cross the
property line? Yeah, I mean who let's say that was true.

(53:44):
They don't pronounce you dead until you're off the property.
Somebody has to haul a clearly dead body off the
theme park grounds.

Speaker 2 (53:52):
What do those people do? They have those talk.

Speaker 9 (53:54):
To it like they pretend it to only do a
weekend with it until they get it outside the gates.

Speaker 4 (53:58):
Well, they have all those tunnels, so they probably just
get people into those right away, all the the backstage
they call it backstage Disney.

Speaker 9 (54:10):
I need a they call them what they call them
cast members, right, they don't call the employees or one
of the cast members imagineers. I need an imagineer to
the corpse tunnels. Please imagineer to the corpse tunnels.

Speaker 2 (54:22):
I'm in the Disney, I'm in the goofy costume right now?
Can you wait? No, we need you right now. All right,
I'll change.

Speaker 9 (54:28):
I got my head off. I'm taking a smoke break.
I just freaked out a couple of toddlers. I need
somebody in the corpse. Everybody will be right there. He's
not he's not breathing, all right. Well, I hope that
that's I don't know what I hope anymore. Hey, do

(54:48):
you remember Susan Powder. That's a blast for the past.
It was a woman named Susan Powder back in maybe
in the late eighties early nineties. She had like shore blonde,
spiky hair. She was like, stop the insanity. Remember, Okay,
Susan Powder went super nova for like five or six years, right.

Speaker 2 (55:10):
She was a I think it was funny down the road.

Speaker 9 (55:12):
I mean, she was married, she's got three grown kids now,
but she had this big reveal that she's like a
full on lesbian and people were like, we were kind
of halfway there with you. Yeah, But anyway, Susan Powder
was a huge deal back in the day. Info marshals
and you know, dealing with toxic men has stopped the insanity,
Like they would spoof her on sn now and she

(55:36):
was selling these VHS tapes and a big, big deal
back in the day. Jamie Lee Curtis has made a
documentary on Susan Powder, who has lost all of her money.

Speaker 2 (55:46):
She's an uber driver.

Speaker 9 (55:48):
She lives in Las Vegas in his small apartment, and
I guess it's a classic tale of not keeping your
mind on your money and your money on your mind.
I don't date any more because that's annoying as crap.
If you remember what she sounded like back in the day,
that was part of her appeal is that she was very,
very blunt. She went from infomercials to the point where

(56:08):
she got so popular they gave her a talk show
for a little while. It was like a Susan Powder
daytime talk show. You think they're giving everybody talk shows
now on television. Back then, all you had to do
was be hot several years. She has three adult sons.
She said, I see them once in a while. I

(56:29):
don't have friend groups. I don't socialize with anyone. She
doesn't celebrate holidays and lives a very private life. Jimmie
Lee Curtis as a documentary called Stop the Insanity, Finding
Susan Powder, who.

Speaker 2 (56:43):
Obviously looks very different.

Speaker 9 (56:44):
She's much older now, doesn't have that close cropped, you know,
platinum hair, Jesus, like a regular older woman.

Speaker 17 (56:51):
And I was like, stop the insanity.

Speaker 2 (56:56):
Susan Powder was a queen of the infomercial. She was
on magazine cover, she was on late Talk showed. She
was the original wellness influencer.

Speaker 4 (57:03):
Susan was inescapable in the early nineties.

Speaker 2 (57:06):
She was a bona fide celebrity.

Speaker 9 (57:07):
Yeah, she got to three hundred million dollars. She had
a lot of money for a while and it all
went away.

Speaker 18 (57:13):
This is one.

Speaker 2 (57:14):
Is that why she disappeared. I don't need to be comfortable.
I need to be filmed, so it's fine. I can
sit here for hours.

Speaker 9 (57:25):
You never ever look at this woman and realize it
was Susan Powder. She's got like longer hair, it's pulled up.
It's her natural color. It's brown. She's got glasses, she's
got kind of like some you know, she's tanned, lives
in Vegas. You know, got some chest ink or whatever.
She's wearing a cart again. But you'd never look at
she would look like a thousand other women of that age.

Speaker 2 (57:44):
If you walked by her on the streets.

Speaker 14 (57:45):
I have that light on and that camera on. People
don't know. I don't see one penny.

Speaker 2 (57:51):
Where's it going?

Speaker 4 (57:52):
You are walking back from having spent the whole day
in a welfare office, and you're walking back to the
welfare week that you live in.

Speaker 9 (58:02):
How much the title cards throw me off? It says
from bell Air to welfare. I feel like that's not
close enough.

Speaker 17 (58:11):
Of the downfall is someone's responsibility?

Speaker 2 (58:14):
And how much is it bad actors? I never said,
show me the damn bank balance. I should have.

Speaker 9 (58:19):
Things had happened that nobody expected.

Speaker 4 (58:23):
It is like the hand me downs of food from
food experts to food desert ingredients.

Speaker 2 (58:30):
You don't give up. She's getting food from the dollar store.
Energy is our superpower. My energy made money.

Speaker 5 (58:40):
For all her wild aggas.

Speaker 9 (58:41):
I wonder if she and Jamie Lee Curtis cross paths
coincidentally in a short gray hair Subrette Grill.

Speaker 4 (58:48):
Just gonna say, man, Jamie Lee Curtis could play old
her in the movie.

Speaker 2 (58:52):
It's just like she looks like.

Speaker 9 (58:54):
Her shady business dealings and a lack of connection to
her own finances led to the loss of estimated three
hundred million dollar fortune and immedia brand that included books,
exercise videos, and even her short lived talk show. So
this is being launched as kind of a because they
put her back in the short gray hair, they give
her the platinum, they bleach her out, and they're taking

(59:16):
some photos of her. So this is the greatest thing
to happen to her in a long time. The documentary,
the documentary, I mean, it's it's going to put her
back on you know, Jamie Lee Curtis is. I mean,
she still is like a prominent actress, right, Jamie Lee
Curtis is not some holdover from the eighties.

Speaker 2 (59:35):
I'm sure she still does stuff.

Speaker 4 (59:36):
She probably got some dough for doing the documentary too,
I would imagine, right.

Speaker 2 (59:40):
I don't know that ain't a way to get rich
and being no, no.

Speaker 4 (59:42):
Not rich, but I'm sure it's I'm hearing something attached.

Speaker 9 (59:46):
Yeah, so stop the insanity. Finding Susan Powder is believe
it or not playing in theaters. Maybe there's one near
you that you can watch, but I'm sure it'll be
dreaming with the quickness and Jamie Lee Curtis one of
the producers.

Speaker 2 (01:00:06):
Do you think we have a My mom loved Susan Power,
did she really?

Speaker 4 (01:00:09):
Yes?

Speaker 2 (01:00:10):
She was like, it was more fitness.

Speaker 9 (01:00:11):
Well, it was, that's how it started, and my mom
was into that. My mom's always been in very good shape.
So my mom back in the day was like she
had the Jane Fonda tapes. My mom loved Richard Simmons, right,
my mom loves Susan powder that. My mom was way
into all that stuff because she was always exercising or
doing something.

Speaker 2 (01:00:30):
That's why I have issues with food now.

Speaker 4 (01:00:32):
Rob because she was always in shape and healthy and yeah.

Speaker 9 (01:00:36):
And tried to do that with us, and I'm glad
that she did.

Speaker 5 (01:00:40):
Right.

Speaker 9 (01:00:40):
It made me the laughing stock of my peer group
that I was having molasses on my pancakes, But I
was never sick. I mean, if that's what she was
going for, right, So my mom knew what was up.
She was way ahead of the curve before a lot
of other people were on certain things with respect to that, so,
you know.

Speaker 4 (01:00:59):
For all the other weird stuff, I never got sick.
At perfect attendance kindergarten through twelfth grade, never missed a
day of school, which sounds like a horror show to
some people.

Speaker 9 (01:01:10):
A lot of people that hated school. I wasn't one
of those people. I liked school. It's getting beat up
a lot, but I liked school. I liked it because
I was a forty year old fifth grader rob But yeah,
that's where that's probably where a lot of that stuff
comes from. And it wasn't like my mom ever put
it on me. It was not like my mom was

(01:01:32):
ever like, don't eat that, don't eat that. You know
a lot of people who get their food issues it's
because either they used to be heavy or they things
like that, and that wasn't me. But yeah, I I'm
sure part of it was that. That was my mom
was always in shape still is.

Speaker 2 (01:01:52):
It was always a big thing with us.

Speaker 4 (01:01:53):
I mean I always That's definitely where my stuff comes from,
for sure, your mom, well everybody, my family in general,
because they just my grandfather in particular, Like I grew
up very very close to my grandfather and he was
he was never mean about it, but he'd see me and.

Speaker 2 (01:02:10):
He's just christ buddy, why don't you watch yourself? I'm
I start thinking some salad maybe every once, like it
was that kind of stuff.

Speaker 4 (01:02:15):
Yeah, and I'd be like, man, god if I look
good today, you know, like it was those type of things.

Speaker 9 (01:02:19):
Well, plus people buying large. Well I shouldn't say buy
and large, but I feel like people used to just
kind of laugh at stuff off.

Speaker 4 (01:02:25):
More for sure. Yeah, but it was it was always
like there was always stuff like my dad would say things,
my grandfather, it was always around. You know, they'd be like, hey,
watch it getting fat. You're fat, You're fat. You know,
like that kind of stuff was always said. So I
was like, man, you know, like and I was never
a like I was fat, but not fat, you know
what I mean. Like, I was never huge, but you

(01:02:48):
would think by the way that I saw myself, I
was eight hundred pounds even now with like my losing
weight now, I mean there's ten people that work here
that are fatter than me, and I'm still like, oh geez,
I gotta cut weight. Man, I look terrible. It's like
you're on the wrestling team, right, how are you losing
that weight?

Speaker 3 (01:03:07):
Uh?

Speaker 4 (01:03:07):
Mentality Alan, Uh working with mentality and taking testosterone treatments
and I feel great. Mentality health dot com slash Radio
in case you're looking for a start for yourself.

Speaker 2 (01:03:20):
Great. Yeah.

Speaker 9 (01:03:23):
Alan never misses a chance to brag about how hot
his mom was. That's not what I'm saying. My mom
was the hot mom, but that's not because I called
her that. That's more due to what the other moms
look like, right, So you got to put it in context.
But also, like my mom always did kept really good
care of herself and like presented herself a certain way.

Speaker 2 (01:03:45):
So that's kind of that's always been in my brain too.

Speaker 9 (01:03:48):
My mom was just somebody who, like appearance was very
important to her, and so I never once saw my
mom hair pulled back, sweatpants on going to the girls restore.

Speaker 2 (01:04:00):
Never.

Speaker 9 (01:04:02):
I never saw my mom in jeans until I was
like in college.

Speaker 2 (01:04:06):
Good god.

Speaker 4 (01:04:07):
Yeah, my mom was always like ready and gone and
you know what I mean, like hair done, make up
out the door.

Speaker 2 (01:04:15):
Yeah.

Speaker 4 (01:04:15):
So that's like you would think with the amount of
time your parents spent behind closed doors, you would have
seen your mother in different states of dress. Shut up, Rob,
They kept themselves to themselves, all right, they were discreet.

Speaker 2 (01:04:30):
Hold on, honey, I'll be out in two hours.

Speaker 4 (01:04:32):
I have to get dressing, get dulled up before I
come out to make dinner.

Speaker 9 (01:04:36):
Yeah, mom, e's here, I make up all runny. Well,
don't ask questions. I didn't don't ask questions. Yeah, Alan,
you got beat up at school and liked it. I
liked school, all right, let's not conflate the two. I
did get beat up a lot. But what I'm trying

(01:04:58):
to say is that did not rob diminish my love
of learning that incredible and my love of academia. It
did diminish my love of not getting beat up. That
didn't happen. But but yeah, I don't know that anybody

(01:05:18):
really unless it's really overt. There are some people who
are very aware of what their parents have put on them,
and obviously you can't hang on to that forever. You're
a grown ass person and you're making your own decision.
You have figured things out. But there are some things
that are deeply embedded in your brain somewhere, and you
might not always know it until it becomes something that

(01:05:40):
you can't ignore for sure. And so I think a
lot of those things has to do with that that
My mom was always very big on presentation.

Speaker 4 (01:05:49):
I just talked to yesterday or the day before about
I always having to clear my plate. It's like that's
just stuff that is still there. I've dealt with all
of my nonsense. I think at least I've spent years
is trying to. But thank you therapists. I think I've
covered most of those things. You know what I mean.
So it's it's it's good to know where it comes from. Though,

(01:06:11):
I will say that.

Speaker 2 (01:06:14):
Somebody takes it.

Speaker 9 (01:06:14):
I guess that's why Alan looks like a hot grandma. Now,
you son of a bitch, you because my hair is long?
I think, so, you motherless whore. You know what, I'm
pulling my hair out. I don't care what anybody says. Right,
I'm gonna wear it down like that hot grandma motherless.
What isn't that better than an ugly grandma? Yes, come on, I.

Speaker 2 (01:06:38):
Can't do that. It's it's jamming up my all right,
thank you.

Speaker 9 (01:06:46):
Oh so Susan Powder, she's trying to come back. You
know who else is broke and in the news Kevin Spacey?
Remember that guy? Remember Kevin Spacey? Yes, Now, I gotta
tell you. When it comes to people in Hollywood, who
got me too? And I think got a raw deal?
I think of Kevin Spacey.

Speaker 2 (01:07:03):
I agree.

Speaker 9 (01:07:04):
I think this guy got a raw deal.

Speaker 4 (01:07:07):
It's because he was on the front lines of it.
It was it was very early in all of it,
when it all happened with him if it was later on,
wouldn't have been as big of a deal.

Speaker 9 (01:07:16):
And some of those young gay dudes are petty. Oh yeah, pete.
I mean, Kevin Spacey has been found pretty much to
have done nothing wrong. Everybody who accused him of stuff
was like, yeah, it's not really you know, they've recanted
or whatever. The bill does the guy kind of grabby

(01:07:37):
in a little bit pervy, Yeah, but that's not what
he was being accused of. That's not what was being litigated.
He was being litigated for like sexual assault and things
like that. So all of his money went to like lawyers,
and he was living overseas and he still can't get gigs, right,
last couple of movies he's done, and it's not like
he's making some massive payday for him just to keep working.

(01:07:59):
He was doing like Italian films. He doesn't have a
permanent home. He says, he's doing cabaret to make a
living and he's living in airbnbs.

Speaker 2 (01:08:08):
Yeah, it was. It was.

Speaker 4 (01:08:09):
The whole thing was that Nantucket case. That's really where
all of that stemmed from. And the kid that brought
this stuff forward, who was an eighteen year old guy.
His mother was a TV personality. That's where all of
that came from.

Speaker 9 (01:08:24):
This guy comes forward publicly and says I once knew
a man from Nantucket.

Speaker 2 (01:08:28):
Who's oh sorry, I'll wait.

Speaker 9 (01:08:33):
Spacey performed a one night cabaret sho in Cyprus. Isn't
that where all the porn websites or headquarters in Cyprus?

Speaker 2 (01:08:40):
It's a huge tax haven.

Speaker 9 (01:08:41):
It's a cool hill there, singing standards to an audience
who paid up to fourteen hundred dollars for a VIP package.
The event was called Kevin Spacey Songs and Stories. The
one in Athens was canceled for political reasons unrelated to
Kevin Spacey. So it was almost ten years ago all
this stuff blew up. But all the money he basically

(01:09:02):
went to lawyers, and though he was found not liable
in these cases, he lost his home. Hollywood stopped calling,
and it says he considered bankruptcy, which means he didn't
declare bankruptcy.

Speaker 4 (01:09:13):
But I'm not saying he didn't do some of the
things he was accused of. I'm just saying he was
a victim of the timing of it, for sure. Yeah,
you look at the people that have come out the
other side already with all this stuff that were me too,
And yeah, he definitely caught a raw deal, especially for
the sense that there was nothing to prove that he
did anything really wrong.

Speaker 2 (01:09:35):
I like Kevin Spacey boy House of Cards Man.

Speaker 9 (01:09:38):
House of Cards was the less big thing he did,
just Dynamite seven and an old movie called Swimming with
Sharks from the early nineties that I love.

Speaker 2 (01:09:50):
And the usual suspect.

Speaker 4 (01:09:52):
Yeah, yeah, guys are so saying, oh spoiler, Jesus raw.

Speaker 9 (01:09:58):
It's just a name from the move and it's pronounced
Caesar Milan. Okay, the dog guy, thank you?

Speaker 4 (01:10:13):
Who did I confuse him with Caesar Ramiro, the guy
that play the Joker in the sixties. Yeah, yeah, you
know the guy that painted his face and was training dogs.

Speaker 2 (01:10:23):
That guy. I think that's the guy. Yeah.

Speaker 5 (01:10:26):
The Cox Show on one, Alan Cox.

Speaker 2 (01:10:33):
A drummer, the real musician. He just makes a noise
if he played the violin or the piano, anything that
made sense, but the drums. Oh yeah, we.

Speaker 9 (01:10:56):
Do a metal show here on Saturday night playing These
guys a progressive metal band from Australia called Voyager really
kind of all over the road, but I really like
what they do. They were part of that Eurovision Song
Contest of the years ago that they do, and there's
a lot of wild acts in that. But our Metal
Show it's me and Corey Roddick and Pat Butler play

(01:11:19):
a lot of brand new metal, play, a lot of
throwbacks local stuff. Lamb of God have dropped a brand
new song hot on the heels of announcing next summer's
tour called Parasocial Christ. They'll play that for you on
Saturday night. Also hot on the heels that we were
talking about parasocial being the word of the year in
the Cambridge Dictionary, despite the word itself being sixty nine

(01:11:43):
years old.

Speaker 2 (01:11:44):
Rock n nice, nice indeed.

Speaker 9 (01:11:48):
N So anyway, we're gonna play some Motorhead play, some
King Diamond, brand new music from newcomb what else of
Sulfur who sound like they should be from Finland but
they're from of Vegas. Anyway, if you're into metal, we
really cut a broad swath with all kinds of brutal
and fun stuff. So two hours to midnight is the

(01:12:09):
Metal Show with Me and Corey and Pat. It is Saturday,
ten o'clock will be off for the holiday next Saturday.
We really only have a couple of new shows remaining
for twenty twenty five before we return in twenty twenty six.
Our new phone screener will join us on Monday as well, yep,
and then Mary Lynn Santorra will make her triumphant return

(01:12:31):
to the program on Tuesday, which is her birthday coincidentally,
and she is doing next weekend at Hilarities. She's been
doing the last couple of years her birthday week, has
been doing that weekend at Hilarities, coming back and forth
between New York and Ohio. So Mary will join us
on Tuesday and be excited to see her, and then
we'll be out the remainder of the week and then

(01:12:52):
from there Rob it's just us on Fumes until Christmas
break right boy?

Speaker 2 (01:12:57):
Am I ever?

Speaker 9 (01:12:57):
Did you see what they did out there today speaking
of Thanksgiving?

Speaker 2 (01:13:01):
Yeah? Oh yeah.

Speaker 9 (01:13:03):
I come in this morning. This place is nuts to butts.
Everybody is here in this every desk, every chair has
an ass in it today because the sales teams are running.
It's like an old school radio stations, like a hive
of activity. And so come and our boy curtis out
there in the sales department a big to do because

(01:13:26):
he turns fifty on Sunday. Yep, unbelievably. The Kurtman. The Kurman,
he's been here. He dipped out, he went to go
somewhere else a couple of years ago, but then he
came back.

Speaker 2 (01:13:37):
But he's been here.

Speaker 9 (01:13:38):
They're only a handful of people who have been here
as long as I've been here, because you know, the
sales department's kind of a revolving door. The Kurtman's been here.
And so they had balloons for him, and they had
a cake it's still out there, yeah, and donuts, and
there's photos of him, and you know, listen, couldn't happen

(01:13:59):
to a nicer guy.

Speaker 2 (01:14:00):
I bought him a very very nice bottle of wine.
I bought him, buy him anything. I said, it was
from both of us. You're a mench see.

Speaker 9 (01:14:09):
And frankly, I didn't know they were going to do
it today. I mean his birthday Sunday. Obviously we're like,
I didn't know they were doing that today. Well, because
no one's gonna be here after this at the end
of the year.

Speaker 2 (01:14:19):
Yeah, I know.

Speaker 9 (01:14:20):
So anyway, they're doing some big to do and come
noontime lunchtime, right, I mean, they're heating up one of
my meals.

Speaker 2 (01:14:29):
They have this massive spread.

Speaker 9 (01:14:31):
They had Thanksgiving food catered, So they have the giant
pans with a sterno underneath, and there's turkey and there's potatoes,
and there's gravy, and there's rolls, and everybody's in there
with a plate. And I'm like, you guys are going
to be in a coma after this. You guys are
still like in the middle of a work day.

Speaker 2 (01:14:51):
That's different than normal.

Speaker 4 (01:14:53):
I'm like, it's aren't you guys gonna get tired in
the back half of the day. It's really thinned out there,
of course since earlier today. Yeah, they're all home, and
again it looked good. Don't get me wrong, it looked good.
But I was like, I could not eat that at noon.

Speaker 9 (01:15:11):
I just like, I'm still two hours away from having
to be on the air for four hours.

Speaker 2 (01:15:15):
There's no way I could do that.

Speaker 4 (01:15:17):
Yeah, but when your workday ends at three, eat it
noon and you're fine. I knock off the next couple
of hours, start dozing. No one's the wiser. You see
what they're calling. Why they're having this little catered thing.
It's like it's like a business thing to bring in business.
I don't know if it's new business.

Speaker 9 (01:15:34):
Well, it's like fourth quarter every every every organization has
this where the salespeople are kind of trying to get
everything wrapped up for the end of the year.

Speaker 4 (01:15:42):
I heard them call it closing day. Someone said closing day,
and I went up to one of the dudes and
I'm like, maybe I'm a little stupid when it comes
to sales here.

Speaker 2 (01:15:50):
That's not what I do for a living.

Speaker 4 (01:15:52):
But shouldn't every day be closing day when you're a salesperson?

Speaker 2 (01:15:55):
Like, isn't that your job?

Speaker 14 (01:15:56):
Hey?

Speaker 9 (01:15:56):
Listen, I did sales. I did radio sales. Before I
came to Cleveland. I was working for this company in Chicago.

Speaker 13 (01:16:03):
Uh.

Speaker 9 (01:16:03):
When I was on the air in Chicago, I was
working for a different company. When I rejoined this company,
I was in sales and every day was closing day.
It was like they had a whip on you, right,
every day you were supposed to be out there closing something.

Speaker 4 (01:16:17):
Today they do like they do something. Hey, I made
a phone call. Oh cool, you get to go pick
a present off of the tree.

Speaker 2 (01:16:23):
They got these.

Speaker 4 (01:16:24):
They got five hundred envelopes on this stupid I see that.
Oh yeah, I just got off the phone with somebody
talk to me live. Oh, go pick something off the tree,
get a fifty dollars gift card be Hinen's.

Speaker 2 (01:16:34):
I'm like, what did you do in your job?

Speaker 6 (01:16:37):
Yeah?

Speaker 2 (01:16:37):
But you get a paycheck congratulation. You have to people
have to be incentivized. What's your incentive to come to
work every day?

Speaker 9 (01:16:46):
The joy of entertaining millions of people? Rob Yeah, and
that doesn't it's not inflating that number at all, millions
of people. That does it for me too, But what
is the incentive to to work?

Speaker 2 (01:17:01):
There?

Speaker 9 (01:17:02):
They the smiles and laughter that I assume are emanating
from people's mouth holes rock.

Speaker 2 (01:17:10):
It must be what it is, dude, Yeah, must be.
No one. No one's handing it.

Speaker 4 (01:17:14):
There's no catered lunch because we showed up to work
every day for a year. So when I saw George
on the street with an eighteen pound turkey and a
giant box of wine, I put one of coincidence, we're
just about to eat.

Speaker 19 (01:17:27):
What is that.

Speaker 2 (01:17:27):
Stuff in turkey that makes you sleepy? Trip to fam?

Speaker 9 (01:17:32):
I think, no, there's no, there's no. But it keeps people.
I don't know what it keeps people.

Speaker 2 (01:17:39):
I don't know. And and you know what I'll be
honest with you.

Speaker 4 (01:17:42):
A part of me wants to go out there and
grab some of that turkey because I eat protein all day.

Speaker 2 (01:17:47):
Yeah, I want a piece of that cake. I love
bird cake cake. I do. But I'm not going to
have any. I'm not. I just gotta maintain my girlish
figure up. I want to have some some some.

Speaker 4 (01:18:01):
Because because that would go against everything that I stand for,
because I never do it.

Speaker 2 (01:18:08):
I never do it.

Speaker 4 (01:18:08):
But you didn't tell them to do it. They put
it in front of you.

Speaker 2 (01:18:12):
Why not? It's just in my place of business, Yes.

Speaker 9 (01:18:15):
But why not? Who are you trying to impress me?

Speaker 4 (01:18:20):
I will cut my nose off to spite my face
every single time.

Speaker 2 (01:18:23):
It's a whole other thing.

Speaker 4 (01:18:25):
I won't touch it. I'll just walk by and wish
I had some turkey. And then when I go home.

Speaker 2 (01:18:29):
I just don't know.

Speaker 4 (01:18:30):
Won't just get a little plate and put a couple
of pieces of.

Speaker 2 (01:18:33):
Turkey just then? I am.

Speaker 4 (01:18:35):
I am saying what they're doing is good, and I
won't do that. But it's just turkey, it doesn't matter,
and it's good.

Speaker 2 (01:18:41):
What are they gonna do with it?

Speaker 20 (01:18:42):
Because then it's the door of the trash I was
if I I don't like the nonsense of this, you are, well,
what I'm saying is is a hell of a lot
more nonsensical things that have gone on around here rather
than catering food.

Speaker 2 (01:18:58):
It's at least it doesn't go to waste. But or
we're catering for what purpose?

Speaker 9 (01:19:02):
Think of the well sprit de corps. Think of the
noble birds, rob do it for them? Yeah, the birds
who gave their lives so that our intrepid colleagues would
not go hungry. Yeah, So Jesus, I was up. I

(01:19:24):
was having a pish midday and I'm coming back and
I'm walking past, obviously all the desks to get back
here in the studio, and there's people that have like plates.

Speaker 2 (01:19:32):
Listen, they're getting the food.

Speaker 9 (01:19:33):
It's fine, but just me looking at it, I'm like,
there was one plate that was like turkey and mashed
potatoes and gravy and green bean salad. I'm like, oh
my god, what are these plates?

Speaker 4 (01:19:43):
Aren't you getting? Aren't you going to fall asleep in
twenty minutes? And also why would you want to do
that exactly a week before Thanksgiving?

Speaker 2 (01:19:51):
Like I'm saving myself for that.

Speaker 9 (01:19:52):
Well, some people love that food. I do take it
any chance they get.

Speaker 4 (01:19:56):
But doesn't it diminish what you're doing next Thursday? If
you haven't now, I don't think so. I don't know, man,
I shall tell you what isn't diminished on Thanksgiving Day Rob.

Speaker 9 (01:20:04):
Alice's Restaurant on the buzz All right, Thanksgiving Day tradition.
Aren't we doing a big Thanksgiving.

Speaker 2 (01:20:12):
Thing next weekend?

That's great.

Speaker 4 (01:20:21):
Wednesday at ten am we're starting. It's called the Second
Helpings weekend.

Speaker 2 (01:20:25):
Get it?

Speaker 4 (01:20:26):
Two songs from the same artist, double shots, So we'll
take the entire buzzard library.

Speaker 9 (01:20:32):
Double shots like how You Take down a Turkey?

Speaker 4 (01:20:33):

to back all weekend long. So if you like led

If you like.

Speaker 4 (01:20:49):
Alison Chains so nice, we'll play him twice all weekend long,
and we'll start that Wednesday at ten right here on
the buzzer.

Speaker 2 (01:20:59):
Your second O all right?

Speaker 9 (01:21:00):
Good, well, I do not share your blue hot hatred
of things like the catered lunch.

Speaker 2 (01:21:08):
I think it's stupid. Well it's food, though, I get it.

Speaker 9 (01:21:12):
They they're like, hey, let's give them food because otherwise
they're going to be leaving the office to eat. I
fully understand their thought process.

Speaker 4 (01:21:20):
Let's but they're leaving the office anyway. It's three o'clock
and no one's here four o'clock are.

Speaker 9 (01:21:27):
Now there's stills in me. But there's more mule out
there than I thought there would be.

Speaker 4 (01:21:30):
Yeah, it wasn't as many as normal.

Speaker 9 (01:21:32):
But but what was the What did we always say
back in the day, you don't want salespeople in the office.
When I was doing sales, if you were in the office,
you got yelled at, why are you here? You should
be out there pounding the pavement. You should be out there. Yeah,
but you were in trouble if you were at your desk.
But again, now it's it's uh, oh, where we have

(01:21:56):
to call people? We got to make X number of calls?

Speaker 2 (01:21:59):
Okay?

Speaker 4 (01:21:59):
Is that what they're I don't I think so. I
think that's the whole point of this. Yeah, I think
they call them turkey in their mouth. What's it up, turkey?
That's what I would do.

Speaker 2 (01:22:07):
Is this uhting some of.

Speaker 6 (01:22:10):
I got.

Speaker 2 (01:22:12):
Turkey? Is this a job Turkey boy?

Speaker 4 (01:22:16):
And my company? Well, is giving us freeze stuff for
doing our jobs? No, we're gonna have to fire everybody
to pay for this lunch or not hire someone for
six months, way before we can.

Speaker 2 (01:22:30):
Go ahead and get do it again. Wait a second,
you're saying.

Speaker 4 (01:22:35):
That I've been answering phones for six months because we
have the paper a Thanksgiving lunch.

Speaker 2 (01:22:39):
Yes, that's what I'm saying.

Speaker 9 (01:22:40):
That's why you're salty. Oh, I get it.

Speaker 4 (01:22:43):
You know the things we can't spend money that I understand,
like what's the equipment and uh, you know things that
we may need as a radio station.

Speaker 2 (01:22:52):
Yeah, but think of the flip side of that.

Speaker 4 (01:22:54):
But at least we have hot turkey for salespeople and
gift cards because they made a phone call today.

Speaker 2 (01:22:59):
But good job.

Speaker 9 (01:23:00):
But think of the flip side of that. Right next year,
what's gonna happen. They're going to go where's the turkey?

Speaker 4 (01:23:06):
And everybody's gonna go Alan had to have a phone screener. Well,
if we're lucky, maybe they'll let him go by then.

Speaker 2 (01:23:14):
Yeah.

Speaker 9 (01:23:15):
I don't want to be on the hook for people
not getting Turkey. Well, just I just don't. I don't
recall this in the past. So that's why I was like,
it's fine, it's fine.

Speaker 2 (01:23:27):
Listen.

Speaker 4 (01:23:27):
When I first came in, I thought it was for
Curtis's birthday, and I was like, oh, you know what,
I don't hate that. Curtis fifty years old, has been
around a long time. A lot, well, a lot of
it is And you know what, I was like, you
know what, good? I like Curtis. I get along very
well with him. We give each other the middle finger
fifteen times a day. It makes me happy. He's a
grumpy son of a bitch like I am. We get
along marvelously. But when I found out why they were

(01:23:51):
actually doing this, it's ridiculous. Everybody's not Oh this is
keeping them working through lunch. Oh is it when fifteen
of them are sitting at the same desk eating together?

Speaker 2 (01:24:00):
Oh yeah, yeah, yah, they're bsy. Look at how busy
they are. I want.

Speaker 9 (01:24:03):
I think the esprit de corps is very important. I think,
you know, a lot of businesses are diminished in their
camaraderie more people working from home. I think when you
have everybody together, I think there's nothing wrong with the
communal aspect of it.

Speaker 4 (01:24:24):
I just closing day. We've all seen Glen Gary, Glenn Ross.
Every day is closing day. A always B B C closing,
always be closing. Yeah, but no, no, no, no, no,
not here. We wait for one day your decision for Christ,
We wait.

Speaker 2 (01:24:40):
For one day to do that.

Speaker 4 (01:24:41):
Here. Wait, today's the day to make sure you actually close?
Oh okay, cool? What do you do the other three
hundred and sixty four days a year.

Speaker 2 (01:24:49):
Spent?

Speaker 9 (01:24:50):
I'll tell you best part of the day so far, though,
is one of our friends who used to be in
our sales department for a long time, who has gone
on to other things. She was here with a client
and I hadn't seen her in forever, and it was
lovely to see.

Speaker 4 (01:25:04):
Her, which probably had nothing to do with the day,
though it did not, is he but coincidental? Nevertheless, it
was nice. And then now the other thing. It royally
drives me bananas. You're gonna leave all that food sitting there, right,
cleaning lady has to come in. She got to handle
all the mess because no one's going to raise a
hand to help, right. And then I get here and
the place smells like it's on fire. Because the sternos

(01:25:26):
have been going for four hours and it burned the
bottom off of the pants. But no one knowing shuts
them off. Everybody's too busy eating and doing stuff than
to like, Oh, maybe I should shut these sternos off
so the building doesn't stink. No, no, no, I gotta
get more turkey.

Speaker 2 (01:25:41):
It's free horses.

Speaker 4 (01:25:43):
Ass No, the cramp bad resauce would happen mashed potatoes.

Speaker 2 (01:25:48):
Oh, the turkey looks great. Thank you for loving me,
Thank you for being there. Everyone's thanking.

Speaker 4 (01:25:54):
The world's thanking you again, thanking you.

Speaker 2 (01:25:58):
Kill the turkey.

Speaker 4 (01:26:00):
Okay, the terror cake, my thank you. I get twice
a month, Alan, I got a paycheck twice a month.
And you know what, because the radio station does so well,
every once in a while, I get something called a bonus.

Speaker 2 (01:26:13):
And you know why I.

Speaker 4 (01:26:14):
Get that because we work hard and make the radio
stays sound good.

Speaker 2 (01:26:18):
Rob, it's my reward. Here's a text. Rob.

Speaker 9 (01:26:21):
I'm one hundred percent on your side, but let Alan
have this one. He's actually defending food. Hey, no one's
more surprised than I am.

Speaker 2 (01:26:31):
I think you should go. I think you go get
that piece of cake.

Speaker 4 (01:26:33):
You should always be willing to surprise yourself. You deserve
a piece of cake, and it's for Curtis. I think
you could do that. I don't deserve anything. Didn't you
hear that guy and that sweeper we play? He deserves
to get kicked in the face. Well, I say dirt
as your co host, I think you should have a
piece of cake.

Speaker 9 (01:26:55):
Alan, did you just say green bean salad? How dare you?
It's green bean castle? Oh right, okay, Well I didn't
check the temperature of it.

Speaker 2 (01:27:03):
Yeah.

Speaker 4 (01:27:04):
Sorry, I won't eat either of them, green bean salad
or green bean castrole.

Speaker 9 (01:27:10):
Although the castrole usually has the slivered almonds in it,
doesn't it?

Speaker 2 (01:27:14):
No, that's almonds. Pretty good? That's almondan, isn't it green
bean almondan? Isn't that the one with the almonds? Wasn't
one of the the mush?

Speaker 9 (01:27:22):
Wasn't green bean Almondin one of the subsurions ye stopping
the navel up, She wrote it, Yeah.

Speaker 4 (01:27:28):
Castrole is the mush and it has the onion crap
on top. Oh yeah, the French fried onions. Yeah.

Speaker 2 (01:27:33):
Alan.

Speaker 4 (01:27:33):
If we want people to be more kind, we have
to give them more opportunities to be face to face.

Speaker 9 (01:27:38):
Well, and food is very communal. Like, I fully understand
what's going on.

Speaker 4 (01:27:42):
The Invite all your clients for a for a Thanksgiving
lunch here at the radio station.

Speaker 2 (01:27:46):
They all about that.

Speaker 9 (01:27:47):
They should have put it back in the dunkin launch
and then invite everybody in.

Speaker 4 (01:27:51):
You want to do a big, giant catered lunch. Awesome,
Invite your best clients. Sign them up for twenty twenty six.

Speaker 2 (01:27:56):
Hooray. No no, no, no, not here.

Speaker 9 (01:28:00):
I think that's a missed opportunity because what you do
is then you fill them full of turkey, then they
get groggy, then you sign them perfect.

Speaker 2 (01:28:10):
Slip something in front of them. The hell did I sign?
I don't know, but you're locked in for five years? Yeah?

Speaker 9 (01:28:19):
Oh, Allan Robb's gonna have an aneurism if you don't
get him some turkey. He's not He's not gonna have
an anneurism.

Speaker 2 (01:28:26):
He'll be fine.

Speaker 4 (01:28:33):
And this is me barely angry, right, this is like nothing. Yeah,
I was more mad about the Halloween stuff than this.
I just think this is stupid and unnecessary, honestly.

Speaker 6 (01:28:46):
But.

Speaker 9 (01:28:48):
Well, listen, I've got Robin a monitor, so it's gonna
be okay.

Speaker 2 (01:28:52):
I couldn't be lucky enough.

Speaker 4 (01:28:53):
I'm taking a I'm taking a close look at it,
and I think everything's going to be fun.

Speaker 2 (01:28:58):
Always the Paul Bearer, never the corpse.

Speaker 9 (01:29:00):
I didn't see anything though. I didn't see the envelopes
on the tree. I didn't see the closing day thing.
I didn't see any of that. I guess I was
so transfixed by the food. And the funny thing is
everybody's looking at me sideways because I have my own
food already, so I'm like microwaving my meal and everybody
around me is looking at me like I'm crazy, because
I'm like, wow, this is a pre existing condition here.

Speaker 2 (01:29:21):
I'm not.

Speaker 4 (01:29:22):
You know, well, there's still envelopes on the Tae have
my routine. Go out there to get your water. Take
a look next time on that white Christmas tree. Why's
it got to be white?

Speaker 2 (01:29:30):
You tell me.

Speaker 4 (01:29:31):
I don't know.

Speaker 2 (01:29:32):
I didn't set it up.

Speaker 9 (01:29:33):
Alan, I don't understand the notion of a pre Thanksgiving
at work. I agree, well, I look at it this way,
and I really don't have a dog in that fight.
But we do spend a lot of time with these people,
so it's like you have your family, And then it
sounds lame. But I mean, but you do have like
the other half of that are your colleagues, the people

(01:29:54):
that you spend a lot of time with.

Speaker 4 (01:29:55):
So why spend more? Why do you have to look like?

Speaker 9 (01:29:58):
Why like, but we're not spending more time with them.
We're just there here, and we're here.

Speaker 4 (01:30:02):
Our big boss loves to call it forced fun, like
three of those events every year we have to.

Speaker 9 (01:30:06):
Go to again, which might not be the nomenclature you want.

Speaker 2 (01:30:10):
If you're trying to get people to get on board,
it's called think fun. Yeah.

Speaker 4 (01:30:15):
But again, it's like those great emails we get, you know,
the thanks for everything emails.

Speaker 2 (01:30:20):
It'd be much better if you were told it wasn't
and eat it. You know what I mean? You got one.

Speaker 4 (01:30:26):
Also, there are probably a lot of offices that don't
do anything even remotely close to this.

Speaker 6 (01:30:32):
I don't.

Speaker 4 (01:30:32):
I don't see how it's necessary. I understand if you
want to do it. Look, man, I would have less
I would be less annoyed with it if you did,
like a holiday potluck and everybody brought crap in.

Speaker 2 (01:30:45):
People.

Speaker 4 (01:30:46):
I'm not eating it either, but I would understand it more.
If you want camaraderie, you want like that kind of crap.
Oh look, so and so in traffic brought in their
famous meatballs. Okay, cool, that's great. Congratulations this for what
for you to make a phone call? Alan brought in

(01:31:06):
his famous ambrosia to salad. It's mandarin oranges and coconut
and marshmallow. I can't get enough. I'll come in and
cater it for everybody. Yes, I've made my frozen Walldorf
salad and a giant bowl of ambrosia, and there's a
grab a serving spoon and dig in. Oh, don't forget

(01:31:29):
the cool whip. Don't forget the cool whip. I will
before I leave tonight, I'll cut myself.

Speaker 2 (01:31:37):
A piece of cake. Grab it before they toss it.

Speaker 9 (01:31:40):
No, I don't think you're gonn toss it. They'll put
it in the kitchen. Right now, it's still sitting.

Speaker 2 (01:31:43):
In the lobby.

Speaker 4 (01:31:45):
Tossing the cake could be another hooping the tube and
tossing the cakes.

Speaker 9 (01:31:54):
Alan is David Lee Roth making a plate there. He's
a sucker for the green bean cast role.

Speaker 2 (01:32:01):
I know that well. He made a bee line for it.

Speaker 4 (01:32:04):
Second that stuff came out, he made a.

Speaker 2 (01:32:06):
B long home run here right to it. So hungry.

Speaker 9 (01:32:12):
Yeah, Dave, there's cake. Yeah.

Speaker 12 (01:32:16):
The Allen Carr Show on one, Alan Cox Man and
we used to describe but school it was a complete creek.

Speaker 5 (01:32:30):
The Allan Cox Show on.

Speaker 13 (01:32:31):
One other point sets.

Speaker 10 (01:32:35):
Okay, all right, all right, okay, okay, all right.

Speaker 4 (01:32:48):
A freak find around on wheelchairs motorized by electric motives
made by Goblins and the factory they're by drywall and
other products that they can eat back at home on
the sofa. About a Mannae Chandler wing her guide in
a free.

Speaker 5 (01:33:07):
Cottub an accident.

Speaker 2 (01:33:08):
And that is time drinking a flavored water on a coddlers.

Speaker 9 (01:33:23):
And I was trying to put a bug in their
ear out there. I went out to fill up my
water bottle, and I did grab a because they had
the big cake for Curtis's birthday, and they also had
from early this morning a thing of Duncan munchkins, and
so I reached in and grabbed a stale blueberry munchkin.

Speaker 2 (01:33:41):
But then I went into the kitchen to fill up
my water.

Speaker 9 (01:33:46):
And Tracy's in there, our office orchestrator. She's in there
like cleaning everything up, and so I go, oh, is
there some cake? I'm like trying to, you know, put
the put the bug in her ear. She go, oh, yeah, yeah,
that's right there. I go, okay, I'm gonna before I leave.
And I asked her who catered and she told me
and I said and it was good, and she goes, great,

(01:34:06):
I said, did you draw the short straw?

Speaker 2 (01:34:08):
She's like trying to get everything in the fridge. Oh no, dude.

Speaker 4 (01:34:11):
They screw her all the time, every single time I
give her a title, every single time we do one
of these stupid events. Not right now, she's the VP
of pre Thanksgiving cleanup because she gets these animals.

Speaker 2 (01:34:24):
They do not ever clean up after themselves ever.

Speaker 4 (01:34:27):
They leave all of this crap everywhere, and it's just
assumed that that's her job.

Speaker 9 (01:34:31):
Well, but clean everything up. It's not like it doesn't
look like she's cleaning up after people. She's condensing the
stuff in the trays into smaller containers so they can
all fit in the fridge.

Speaker 2 (01:34:42):
But that's still a pain in the ass. Why is
that her job?

Speaker 4 (01:34:45):
Why is I don't have the fifty people that attended,
I don't know that it is. Anybody could have said, oh, Tracy,
let me help you with that. Oh you know what,
let Tracy you know at this time, you don't have
to do it.

Speaker 2 (01:34:55):
I'll do it.

Speaker 9 (01:34:55):
You know what, though, I have a feeling if somebody
tried that she go no, no, no, I'll get it,
then that's her choice to do that.

Speaker 2 (01:35:01):
Yeah.

Speaker 9 (01:35:02):
Well, I just wanted to I just wanted to say
it out loud that I was.

Speaker 4 (01:35:05):
God freaking crazy what they do with Tracy. The amount
of crap she swallows for those guys, it kills me.

Speaker 2 (01:35:14):
But who is supposed to do that?

Speaker 9 (01:35:15):
I mean, she is, She's she's like the office administrator
or whatever.

Speaker 2 (01:35:19):
Anybody can do that.

Speaker 9 (01:35:20):
She kind of my understanding is that she kind of
handles all the nuts and bolts of things like that.

Speaker 2 (01:35:26):
She pros everything.

Speaker 9 (01:35:27):
She probably ordered it.

Speaker 4 (01:35:28):
And you know, so then the perfect gift for her
then would be to not have to do that, right, Like,
so you're one of the people that was part of
coordinating this ridiculous event, and then to help her.

Speaker 9 (01:35:38):
Like when I'm home, I go home see my mom
for Thanksgiving every year, I always do the dishes. I
always imagine that I always do the Thanksgiving dishes. Hey, ma,
let me help by hand, Rob, Yeah, yeah, let me help.

Speaker 2 (01:35:53):
Let me let me give you a hand.

Speaker 9 (01:35:54):
She used to fight me, but now she just kind
of steps aside. Okay, so she knows I'm going to
do it.

Speaker 2 (01:36:00):
Yeah, I'll be in the back with your future black stepdad. Honey,
when you're done doing the dishes, let me know.

Speaker 4 (01:36:05):
Okay.

Speaker 2 (01:36:05):
Sometimes it's just the gesture.

Speaker 4 (01:36:07):
I went in and got water too, and I had
to get back on the air in two minutes. Otherwise
I would have stayed in there and helped her, because
it's ridiculous that no one's in there helping her.

Speaker 2 (01:36:14):
Maybe somebody is, now they're not.

Speaker 5 (01:36:17):
Are you kidding?

Speaker 2 (01:36:18):
You think any one of them would do it? I
don't know. First off, ninety seven percent of everyone is gone.

Speaker 4 (01:36:24):
There's two people left here, and the two that are
left ain't lifting a finger. Well, listen, I just feel
bad for her.

Speaker 2 (01:36:36):
Well.

Speaker 9 (01:36:37):
I love Tracy, No, she's great, but I guess I
think of that stuff as being in her purview as
she like she's kind of like the den mother, yeah,
for lack of a better term.

Speaker 4 (01:36:49):
But again, they still get help. People get help. Yeah,
because if she didn't do that, it would just sit
there forever. I just got a text from the boss,
it's your job now. Okay, Yeah, it's funny. Hey bailed
out of here as soon as he could. I'm not
doing it. I'm gonna help.

Speaker 2 (01:37:10):
Danger feel I. I got a big dinner tonight for
Curtis's birthday. I'm going to dinner. They're going to the
Marble Room. Oh they are?

Speaker 5 (01:37:18):
Yeah?

Speaker 4 (01:37:18):
Oh yeah, oh yeah, you think we get invited? Come on,
it's they're not going now you get to go leftover turkey.
Well I was gonna say, are they getting an early
bird special? It's four thirty. Well no, no, no, no, no,
they'll just pregame. Hey, I sit at that bar, have
a good time, and then I have a nice dinner.
Oh yeah, yeah, yeah I would. I'd pick up my

(01:37:41):
own tab if I was invited. We're done here a
little after six.

Speaker 2 (01:37:45):
Oh no, no, no, we don't get invited to stuff
like that. What's going on there? You're hungry?

Speaker 4 (01:37:49):
Allan go eat the leftover gruel for the salespeople.

Speaker 2 (01:37:52):
Well, ow do you mean that?

Speaker 9 (01:37:53):
I just mean like, we see those guys all the
they all go way back like they were. They were
all like green horns when they started. So I understand
that whole thing. I'm just being cheeky. But oh me too.
You know why I say that, You know why I
get all snippy. I have yet to have dinner at
the Marble Room, and so I'm just looking at glom

(01:38:15):
Onto whatever they're doing.

Speaker 2 (01:38:16):
Weren't they supposed to take us for our anniversary? We
brought that up. We were like, hey, what do you think? No?

Speaker 9 (01:38:22):
Our anniversary? Yes, that was like two weeks ago.

Speaker 2 (01:38:26):
Yeah.

Speaker 4 (01:38:26):
No, I didn't even get a congratulations. I congratulated you.
Oh you Oh, I see we have bosses. I me
congratulating you. You congratulating me, as means you both have jobs.
We didn't get fired from this.

Speaker 9 (01:38:39):
Y's that's not anybody's radar, and I don't expect it
to be quite frankly, now, ironically, I did get congratulations
Rob on the anniversary of misosectomy. But that's that's very Yes,
that's very impactful, you know what I mean? Yes, please
don't get any more cabbages out of this plan, out

(01:39:00):
of Alan. Okay, well, good for them, Listen. I couldn't
be happier.

Speaker 4 (01:39:06):
So I picked up a cleaning gig on the side.
I wonder how much more they'll pay me for that too.
I make sure all that stuff gets done. Alan I'm
dying laughing and Robbies of the traffic Ladies walking out
of a play to Meatball's all I can think about
her saying her wet and sloppy meatballs.

Speaker 2 (01:39:20):
And sloppy.

Speaker 4 (01:39:21):
Whatever's left in there now is definitely not wet, but
definitely sloppy.

Speaker 2 (01:39:26):
You know.

Speaker 9 (01:39:26):
There's some turkey. And by the way, it's a boon
for people who couldn't be here today because they'll be
here well maybe tomorrow. Tomorrow is Friday, though maybe tom
you are. I mean, there's almost a couple of people.

Speaker 4 (01:39:41):
You get the designated survivor. There's one person here every
single Friday.

Speaker 2 (01:39:44):
That's it.

Speaker 4 (01:39:45):
I think they rotate. Sometimes it's either John John will
show up. Sometimes Johnny Logo will be there. Ye what's
uh yeah, yeah, the one who just left Michelle Michelle
are yeah and uh Ash and Curtis.

Speaker 2 (01:40:02):
Ash'll be at Kurt well, Curtis. Curtis likes the pop in.

Speaker 4 (01:40:05):
Curtis walks around now that I mean he's here, Yeah,
he's like he's like the mayor, Hey, how you doing well?

Speaker 2 (01:40:11):
Diving well, moving.

Speaker 9 (01:40:13):
And shaking And it's our fault for skipping that holiday
happy hour last night because we could have tipped a
couple in advance of his birthday.

Speaker 2 (01:40:21):
No, all right.

Speaker 4 (01:40:23):
The greatest gift you've given me since we've worked together
was roblem.

Speaker 2 (01:40:28):
I'm not going to that thing.

Speaker 4 (01:40:28):
Tonight, bailing on the holiday, happy Chinese Algebra.

Speaker 2 (01:40:32):
By the time you got that sentence out of your mouth.

Speaker 9 (01:40:34):
Listen, come on, today's the Great American Smokeout. I was
just trying to make sure that everybody was focused on that.

Speaker 4 (01:40:40):
It's been man, I'm thinking, it's like, it's at least
six years since I've had a cigarette.

Speaker 2 (01:40:45):
I think it was twenty nineteen.

Speaker 9 (01:40:47):
Tell the last time I had a cigarette was Mike
Polk's wedding. But we were just outside. Everybody's outside in
the courtyard or on these tables. Wait a minute, I
was like, yeah, I'll bum a cigarette. Yah, hold on,
you were at Mike Polk's wedding. Rob, didn't I tell
you this? No O, I ran into one. Timothy Misney,
I won James Runner one.

Speaker 2 (01:41:05):
Oh my god.

Speaker 4 (01:41:05):
Social at the end of the years, I'd say the decade, wow, yeah, yeah, no,
last time I had it, and before that it was
probably a good ten years. Really well, yeah, I don't know.
My wife can be a social smoker. If I have
age rag, I'm buying a carton.

Speaker 9 (01:41:21):
Oh no, no, no, because I was I was never
a smoker. So if somebody's like, you want to you
want to smoke?

Speaker 14 (01:41:26):
I go.

Speaker 9 (01:41:27):
Normally I'd be like no, but that night I was
like yeah, because I you know, I was half in
the bag and you know, and I want to smoke
every day in my life.

Speaker 21 (01:41:34):
That's the thing.

Speaker 4 (01:41:35):
Like people say, it goes away. Whatever I can't, it
never goes away. I always like, i'm driving, I'm like, I'd.

Speaker 2 (01:41:40):
Love to have a cigarette. Wow, I just don't do it.

Speaker 4 (01:41:43):
You know what I mean, It's go It's it's been
long enough that I don't have that craving, but I
still love it. I still would do it in a second.
You'd fall right back off the wagon instant. Wow, smoke.

Speaker 2 (01:41:53):
I've done enough bad things to my body.

Speaker 4 (01:41:55):
I figure at this point I gave twenty years too smoking.

Speaker 2 (01:41:58):
I'll try to not for the rest of my life. Yeah,
good for you.

Speaker 9 (01:42:03):
Cavaliers lose last night to the Houston Rockets. Here at
home lose by ten one fourteen one o four off tonight.
They will host the Indiana Pacers tomorrow night for one
of those NBA Cup games, they were talking to Kenny Atkinson,
by the way, Caves head coach, about the physicality of
the Houston Rockets. These guys are an aggressive team, and
he said, we're not built that way, and I guess

(01:42:25):
people were taken aback by that. He's like, the Cavs
are not built in such a way to take on
a team that is that physically aggressive, I guess, and
people thought that maybe that was something he's said the
quiet part out loud. But I'm like, listen, if you're
being asked questions, Junior the coach, and you're being candid,

(01:42:46):
you're going to say stuff like that.

Speaker 2 (01:42:47):
I think honesty is the best policy.

Speaker 4 (01:42:49):
You talked about the rest too, with getting with getting
fined for letting.

Speaker 2 (01:42:56):
A couple of his players sit.

Speaker 4 (01:42:58):
Got one hundred thousand dollars fine for the organization for
doing it, and he was like, yeah, you know what,
you have fifteen games in twenty seven days, I'm resting
my players.

Speaker 2 (01:43:06):
Okay, find me.

Speaker 9 (01:43:09):
Alan, I will take you and Rob you and Rob
and I will go to the marble room. Because my
wife's work takes them all the time and I never
get asked. Yeah, I hear read that too, where people
are like, oh, we're going for work, And again, it's
nothing that I lie awake at night thinking about. But
it's right across the street and I've never gone so
But again, I'm a girl ass man, and I could

(01:43:30):
get over there if it were that important. But it
is kind of the go to spot down here for
people who are trying to have a hoity toity night.

Speaker 4 (01:43:38):
I think at all all of my frustration with all
of the nonsense that this place does.

Speaker 2 (01:43:45):
And it's not unique to this place.

Speaker 4 (01:43:47):
It's every single place that I've ever worked. The difference
between sales and programming has always been what it is like,
where are the guys that come into work every single
day when they have company holidays.

Speaker 2 (01:44:00):
We're here.

Speaker 4 (01:44:01):
When they cut each day short, we're here. It's just
what it is. Yeah, like the your steerage, you're in programming,
your steerage, you don't get the okay, so we get
to eat after they eat that, that's like the all right,
you got you guys full.

Speaker 2 (01:44:14):
You guys have enough stuffing, all right.

Speaker 4 (01:44:16):
Let the other guys in. It's always been that way,
so I think this.

Speaker 2 (01:44:21):
I'm not in it for the perks what do you.
Of course, everybody's in it for something.

Speaker 9 (01:44:24):
I'm in it for the I'm in it for the
love of the game.

Speaker 4 (01:44:26):
Ro a little, a little uh minute for the U,
A little thank you, A little at a boy.

Speaker 9 (01:44:31):
You said it, my paycheck is my thank you?

Speaker 2 (01:44:34):
Yeah?

Speaker 4 (01:44:34):
But again, how nice would it be if every once
in a while they said, hey, you know what, let's
do uh, let's do a catering lunch for that radio station.

Speaker 9 (01:44:44):
For only and only a handful of people can have it.

Speaker 4 (01:44:47):
No, no, no, everybody can have it. But we're doing
it because I don't know what. Let's say, I've been here,
what is it, three years? Yeah, and we've never not
been number one?

Speaker 5 (01:44:55):
How's that?

Speaker 4 (01:44:56):
How about little celebration for thirty six boys? Number one?
I should know checks.

Speaker 9 (01:45:00):
We're a victim of our own success. People begin to
take for granted how we have the situation handled.

Speaker 4 (01:45:07):
But if I don't guess whose asses on the plate?
Well yeah, yeah, And as soon as this thing tanks,
somebody's gotta be holding the potato when the bottom falls out, right,
I like how you praise that as soon as this
thing tanks, it's anything else, it's gonna happen someday it
will and as soon as it does, me gone.

Speaker 2 (01:45:25):
And Rob's an idiot, he doesn't know what he's doing.
Both of us.

Speaker 9 (01:45:28):
I'm gonna be I'm gonna be riding Shotgun with Susan
Powder's driving.

Speaker 2 (01:45:34):
For Uber Eats.

Speaker 4 (01:45:35):
Yeah, I'm gonna be sitting together, elbow deep in somebody
else's bag, eating their fries. But we're working together, so
we drop off stuff to people trying to entertain while
we're there.

Speaker 2 (01:45:43):
Hey, remember us, we just be on the radio.

Speaker 9 (01:45:46):
Hey, it's it's West Bester And and tell the way dad
with your French fries.

Speaker 4 (01:45:50):
Hold on one second, you hold up your phone and
just start playing the David Lee Ross sound effects off
your phone.

Speaker 2 (01:45:56):
Yeah, I got him?

Speaker 4 (01:45:58):
Are you the guy with my fourp in fries?

Speaker 2 (01:46:05):
How did you guys get here so quick? Whoa, oh god,
I'm running?

Speaker 21 (01:46:09):
Whoa yeah, oh god.

Speaker 2 (01:46:21):
Yeah.

Speaker 9 (01:46:22):
Well listen, I'm happy when other people get a little
extra something.

Speaker 2 (01:46:28):
Yeah, me to, I'm not. I'm not at the end
of the day. I'm happy. I'm happy they all do it.

Speaker 4 (01:46:32):
We can have fun and kind of complain, But I don't.

Speaker 2 (01:46:37):
I like everyone here very much. I'm not. I don't
care about the person.

Speaker 4 (01:46:40):
I always have to go back and I got to
say these things because people are hating me.

Speaker 2 (01:46:44):
The next just goofing around kind of yeah, kind of
I'm embellishing for the show. Sort of.

Speaker 9 (01:46:56):
Tacoma Washington Bureau chief out there if Nate Intoma and
there is a local I don't know if they were
a food bank or what. They were a business in Tacoma,
Washington who said to publicly apologize because they didn't know
that the Santa they had hired was a guy who

(01:47:17):
murdered his wife a decade ago. They had no idea
that this guy was the same dude a local swap meet.
They had hired a guy to play Santa, a guy
named Robert Seland who was known to have killed his wife.
He was released from a state hospital last year. And

(01:47:40):
I guess and he went right into you know the
gay Sy route, you know how Gayy famously was like
a clown at children's parties and things like that. And
they had hired this guy because they're like, well, let's
just get a Santa. He's cheap, and apparently the name
it sounds like a guy where the case would have
been known, it wasn't forty years ago.

Speaker 2 (01:47:58):
It's twenty eleven. The place Santa this winter.

Speaker 22 (01:48:03):
But because of our story, the people who own the
property where he was setting up shop wants to make
amends with the victim's family. Kiro Sevants Jake Chapman has
that story for us in Tacoma, and Jake, how is
the victim's family reacting to all this?

Speaker 1 (01:48:19):
Well, Monique, they are absolutely relieved right now.

Speaker 2 (01:48:22):
They were telling me.

Speaker 1 (01:48:23):
To hear that this man was back out there has
really brought up a lot of trauma recently. But to
hear that the business right here that owns this parking
lot wants to rectify this has them thrilled. And they
also do not blame them for not knowing this man's past.

Speaker 15 (01:48:39):
Because people aren't aware. You know, here's a perfect example.
They're not aware. I don't blame them at all.

Speaker 1 (01:48:45):
The pain of losing a loved one is always hard.

Speaker 15 (01:48:48):
She can't breathe another breath of fresh.

Speaker 2 (01:48:50):
Air, especially for Cheryl Gates.

Speaker 9 (01:48:52):
Wait, the pain of losing a loved one is hard?
What kind of copy is that the pain of losing
a loved one is hard? Anyway, this guy they found
that he was going to be Santa and then They're like, oh,
we can't have this guy shown up. I couldn't imagine
a child sitting on a murderer's lap. The woman said,

(01:49:16):
there are a lot of laps, and you don't want
to be sitting on a murderer's lap.

Speaker 15 (01:49:19):
People aren't aware. Here's a perfect example. They're not aware.
I don't blame them at all. I couldn't imagine a
child sitting on a murderer's lap. I would not want
that for my child.

Speaker 23 (01:49:28):
And we totally agree with that. I mean, we didn't
know his past. On behalf of my parents who run
this establishment. They just want to apologize for any misconceptions.
We've basically told him to knock him around until we
have a chance to speak to a family.

Speaker 2 (01:49:44):
Yeah, I don't come around here no more.

Speaker 9 (01:49:46):
The immortal words of one Thomas Petty, Julio Garcia and
Ardes of Takaria. Al Carbon was the restaurant who hired
the Santa and sent to us by one of our
your achieves out there.

Speaker 2 (01:50:04):
I mean, I don't know.

Speaker 9 (01:50:07):
You know, you can do research now and just about
every other thing you know. You can hire a painter
and dig into their friggin' Instagram accountant you know, people
are lurking all the time. You think you might do
a little bit of a background check. Would you do
a background check on somebody who are hiring to play Santa?

Speaker 4 (01:50:25):
I would think so. I mean, I would think that
that would absolutely be a starting point.

Speaker 9 (01:50:30):
I think about I think about Danny Aykroyd in trading
places where he's dressed up with Sandy. He's all drunk
and he's pulling the giant salmon. Now it's getting and
he's trying to bite it.

Speaker 2 (01:50:41):
Yeahs face.

Speaker 9 (01:50:45):
There's somebody running around, getting on people's ring cameras and
making people nervous with weird Christmas cards out in San Bernardino, California,
multiple Christmas cards containing vulgar messages left door to door
in a neighbor hood and people went out and there
were cards there, and they figure maybe it's some neighborhood organization,

(01:51:06):
but it was people in coats and masks and hoodies
who left cards at particular homes and it said Santa,
I want the head of a Nazi under my tree.
You are warned, Merry Christmas and fu Nazi. I wonder
how they targeted these homes, going door to door trying
to cause chaos. You got little kids in the house, Santa,

(01:51:31):
and it's written in like shaky script, like a little kid, Santa.
I want the head of a Nazi under my tree.

Speaker 2 (01:51:37):
I mean, don't we all?

Speaker 9 (01:51:38):
But they're notoriously difficult to wrap, and they're very very
What are the words I'm looking for? A rough and sloppy,
wet and sloppy, that's what I'm thinking.

Speaker 2 (01:51:49):
I'm sure as.

Speaker 1 (01:51:50):
Hail didn't come down from the goddamn smoky mountains across
five thousand mile of water by.

Speaker 2 (01:51:55):
My way through half of Sicily.

Speaker 4 (01:51:56):
And jump out of a Ganaro plane to teach the
Natchies lessons in humanity. Each and ever man under my
command owes me one hundred NATSI scalp.

Speaker 2 (01:52:05):
That's his scalps, and I will have my scalps.

Speaker 9 (01:52:08):
That glorious bastard in glorious Bastards, and I will have
my scalps.

Speaker 4 (01:52:13):
Such a good movie.

Speaker 9 (01:52:14):
So they're trying to cheer people up in this neighborhood,
people hoping.

Speaker 2 (01:52:19):
Now imagine you're a home.

Speaker 9 (01:52:21):
Where you go, honey, We finally got somebody who wants
to take those Nazi heads, go get them out of
the cooler in the Moss Bank God they were Oh
my god, Cousin Gustav is going to be so relieved.

Speaker 5 (01:52:35):
The Allen Cork Show on one hundred points.

Speaker 24 (01:52:38):
Of car Show, Allan, it says here that you call
yourself one of the few gay goat farmers in the
great state of Tennessee on.

Speaker 13 (01:52:52):
One hundred point seven WMMS.

Speaker 9 (01:53:23):
Did you ever get into the band The New Pornographers? No, Okay,
this is them. Nico Case I think might be the
most prominent member of this band, because she'll go out
and she's done a lot of solo stuff. You know,
she'll come through and do like the Kent Stage. And
they're from Canada. They're probably one of Canada's best indie
rock bands. This album was called Mass Romantic and it

(01:53:44):
was really really good. If you're into that kind of stuff.
Not everybody is. Unfortunately for them, they got into a
bit of a pr disaster after their drummer was arrested
and convicted of possessing child pornography. When you were on

(01:54:04):
band called the New Pornographers and Art Imitating Life, we're
life imitating art. The band was like, what the hell
are we going to do? And so they had been
their dilemma was do we keep the name of the band.

Speaker 2 (01:54:20):
They've been around a long time and.

Speaker 9 (01:54:25):
Their drummer, a guy named Joe Cedars, had been with
them for quite a while, and of course when this
comes out, boy, that'll screw you up with your band.
He got in trouble in a big, big way child
porn and they gave him three years in prison. This

(01:54:48):
happened like this last summer, just happened, and the band
was like, well, when we found out, we were like,
obviously we can't call ourselves the new Pornographer. But then
they just kind of let it all calm down. They
let some time past and they said, we're gonna keep

(01:55:08):
the name.

Speaker 5 (01:55:10):
Jeez.

Speaker 4 (01:55:10):
So they well, listen, you've established a brand. Are you
gonna let some pediass drummer jammy up?

Speaker 2 (01:55:17):
Yes?

Speaker 4 (01:55:17):
What are you gonna call yourself? Because you still have
to MP's.

Speaker 9 (01:55:20):
But then you got you have to say formerly the
new Pornographers for the first year. I think they should
have gone with the old pornographers. That sounds much better really, really,
just the new new pornographers, the new Thamesman. Wasn't that
the spinal tap or a mighty wind or one of

(01:55:41):
those that were like the the New Thamesman. They named
their band that originally to make fun of Jimmy Swaggert
because he had remember Jimmy swagger Yeah, televangels have assumed
he was the guy who fake cried on television after
getting caught with a hooker. And then I think he

(01:56:02):
did it a couple more times. Well, yeah, they're getting
caught at the crying part. Wasn't your first defense? No,
but that's a big swing. If you're gonna cry, that's
the kind of move that should be like, all right,
I'm gonna sew this up because you can only do
the big cry once.

Speaker 2 (01:56:20):
You got to make a count. But I don't think
you did.

Speaker 9 (01:56:22):
But he had referred to rock music as the new
poor no Graffi, and so they called themselves the New Pornographers.
But they came to the conclusion that they were gonna
keep the name of the band. Worked too hard for
the name, and uh or some like a peer of
there somebody else had said, you guys have worked too
hard for this name.

Speaker 4 (01:56:43):
You cannot change your name, and they were like, yeah, huh,
I think you bail on the name. Yeah, yeah, I
think that's it. If your name doesn't have porn in it. Okay,
you know what I mean? Fine, you could say, all right,
your drummer's a pig, but our band is called Sublime, right, Okay, okay,

(01:57:04):
we can get away with this. The New Pornographers and
one of your guys goes down for kitty porn.

Speaker 2 (01:57:09):
You bail on that name, you think?

Speaker 4 (01:57:10):
So?

Speaker 9 (01:57:10):
Of course, I think you're you already have your audience.
I don't know if new people are coming to the
New Pornographers. You might have people who find them along
the way with streaming, and it might get suggested to
you as a band similar to other ones you like,
as is the custom now. But you already got your
audience and they don't think you're all pervs, and so

(01:57:32):
if nothing else, maybe it gets you a little attention
that you wouldn't have gotten otherwise.

Speaker 2 (01:57:37):
With that name. You're guilty by association. Man, it's gotta
go really. Oh yeah, everybody else in the band.

Speaker 4 (01:57:42):
I don't think everybody else in the band is like,
oh no, they're gonna think we're all all I have
child porn.

Speaker 6 (01:57:47):
No.

Speaker 4 (01:57:47):
No, but the name implies bad and just reminds everybody
of bad bad.

Speaker 2 (01:57:53):
So what he porn? Nothing? Worse than kitty porn.

Speaker 9 (01:57:55):
Well, yeah, it's hard to come back from that. But
they've been around since nineteen ninety seven. The drummer gets
pinched last year.

Speaker 4 (01:58:06):
Uh huh. So you go, okay, do we take almost
thirty years of how you know we we way predated
this guy. It doesn't erase what you've done. Yeah, it
just doesn't remind people of what he did. What do
you call yourself?

Speaker 2 (01:58:25):
The NPS? The NPS, not the new Pornographers?

Speaker 4 (01:58:31):
There you go, anything, not the new pornographer, anything but
the new pornographer.

Speaker 9 (01:58:36):
Yeah, the Yeah, it's a shame though, because it's a
great name. It's great, the New Pornographers. I just I
feel like it's it's just it's tainted, Uh taint Alan.

(01:58:57):
Why are so many people into kids? There have always
been people into kids, they just have immediate access to
them now.

Speaker 2 (01:59:07):
And have for quite some time. Unfortunately.

Speaker 9 (01:59:11):
That's why there's this dilemma with companies that make sex dolls.
The conversation as always do we make them? The thought
being if you keep a pediast confined to their home
and keep them, you know, from being out there, you
keep them. But people can't get their heads around that

(01:59:32):
I don't. Yeah, I don't think that works. I don't
think there's just a training tool to go out and
do the real thing. Yeah, that's the argument against it. Yeah,
I don't think that there's a I don't think there's
any one of those companies. It's like, yeah, yeah, we're
gonna make these argument for it. Yeah, it's more of
a I think, more of a philosophical question than a
practical one. And still it's like, whoof if you listen
to us on the iHeartRadio app, leave messages for us.

Speaker 7 (01:59:58):
I just want to say, you're on the hook.

Speaker 5 (02:00:00):
For everything that goes wrong in my life.

Speaker 4 (02:00:03):
Okay, if something goes wrong, of course I said damn
it Allan when I my tone, damn it Allan.

Speaker 2 (02:00:12):
So I better get some turkey.

Speaker 4 (02:00:14):
Oh so I'm gonna be mother f and you all
the way to the food drive.

Speaker 8 (02:00:19):
So I'm bitch. Wow.

Speaker 9 (02:00:20):
Okay, so oh food drive. I don't know he wants
some turkey.

Speaker 2 (02:00:26):
It's your fault if he doesn't get it. I guess
at the food drive.

Speaker 9 (02:00:30):
At the food drive, fell in love with the girl
at the food drive.

Speaker 2 (02:00:37):
If something goes wrong, course I say damn it Allan. Yeah,
I'm gonna pull that one off. It's pretty good.

Speaker 14 (02:00:45):
How's it going with Allan?

Speaker 11 (02:00:46):
And anyway, I hope you guys are having a wonderful day.
This is Joshua from Benner. We've actually met before at
Circle K. He told me to download the app and
I get a free metallic asidi. Anyway, moving forward, you
guys rock, I just left my job because my boss

(02:01:06):
is a racist, bigot piece of crap and I'm the
guy who puts part spray in his coffee.

Speaker 2 (02:01:12):
All right, have a good one, didn't we hear from that?

Speaker 4 (02:01:15):
He's like, I quit my job because my boss heart
spray and his coffee.

Speaker 2 (02:01:20):
Now see that funnier than using the real bum stuff, right.

Speaker 9 (02:01:29):
Like the guy who sting fingers his boss's monster energy.

Speaker 2 (02:01:33):
Can you know?

Speaker 4 (02:01:34):
So? Definitely funnier if you're using a little fart spray
synthetic fart.

Speaker 9 (02:01:38):
Yeah, but isn't that I mean, listen, it's a distinction
without a difference. But that's chemicals, Yeah, chemicals in a
guy's coffee.

Speaker 4 (02:01:44):
I think it's still different if you're fingering your bum
or materials. Yeah, I think that's I think it's a
different level of messed up.

Speaker 9 (02:01:55):
Well, it's definitely less invasive. If you've got some kind
of solution in a spray and it's and it's also
not I mean, it's just a spray. It's a it's
a stink spray.

Speaker 4 (02:02:05):
It's like if someone walked over and sprayed what the
hell's that air freshenerer into your cup or cologne?

Speaker 9 (02:02:12):
Well, stink bombs were just sulfur, right, Like when we
were younger. They were like in literal glass vials, and
so not only did you have stink, but you had
like little pieces of shattered glass on the floor too. Yeah,
and so or you'd step on them or whatever. But yeah,
the stink bombs of old were just like liquid sulfur.

Speaker 2 (02:02:31):
I think the smell like eggs.

Speaker 4 (02:02:32):
If you watch those videos now too, man, people with
the farts break over the tip like they'll hit that
pump like eighty times before somebody walks into a room.

Speaker 2 (02:02:40):
I'm like, I get it.

Speaker 4 (02:02:42):
But if you want it to be funny, I mean
you can't have it be like an over the top.

Speaker 2 (02:02:46):
This is the like the people will know it's fake.

Speaker 9 (02:02:49):
Yeah, but also this is because guys don't know how
to wear cologne. It comes from that, right, Guys who
got to walk around smell like they were in a
kiddie pool full of polo sport. It's like, oh yeah,
jo oleel dabble, do you so?

Speaker 2 (02:03:04):
Yeah?

Speaker 9 (02:03:04):
You got dudes who don't know how to apply colonna
their bodies, let alone fart' spread of their environment.

Speaker 2 (02:03:09):
And you're just loading up a car eighty pumps of
the stuff.

Speaker 4 (02:03:11):
I'm like, that's that's not even like it's gonna smell
so bad that nobody even believes it's a fart. It's
supposed to be a whiff, right, it's supposed to be
a suggestion of a fart.

Speaker 2 (02:03:24):
Hey, did you just fart?

Speaker 4 (02:03:26):
O stinks?

Speaker 9 (02:03:28):
And by the way, grow up and actually fart.

Speaker 4 (02:03:31):
Yeah, eat some broccoli like a man.

Speaker 2 (02:03:36):
I had broccoli for lunch, did you? I did? Sam
salmon and broccoli and potatoes.

Speaker 4 (02:03:41):
Catching up with you get no, huh no, No, it's
just gonna manifest itself in your first of three bms
tomorrow morning.

Speaker 9 (02:03:46):
Maybe yeah, we'll see. I have my post show still
to go tonight.

Speaker 2 (02:03:54):
Does it get through that fast?

Speaker 13 (02:03:55):
Though?

Speaker 2 (02:03:56):
Threw me that fast? I don't, I don't know.

Speaker 9 (02:03:58):
I mean, I I just know that I still have
one to go.

Speaker 2 (02:04:02):
Today.

Speaker 9 (02:04:03):
I had my first one this morning. I was up
around five. Yeah, first one this morning. I feel like
that would have been yesterday's lunch, might be right, right,
Like I think it doesn't it take twelve ish.

Speaker 2 (02:04:13):
Something like that? Yeah?

Speaker 9 (02:04:15):
No, No, I'm not suggesting goes through me that quickly.
I'm just saying that it might. I don't know, damn it.
Why can't we do prop bets anymore? On which one
it's gonna be. Is Allen's lunch gonna be the midday BM?
Is it going to be the evening BM or the morning.

Speaker 2 (02:04:34):
I'm voting on tomorrow morning's BM.

Speaker 4 (02:04:37):
That would be midday all right, No, I think it's
your morning one, Okay, I don't think it's a full
twenty four behind.

Speaker 9 (02:04:42):
So my so my evening one tonight should be last
night's dinner, last night's dinner. So you're talking like a
forty twenty four hour rotation.

Speaker 4 (02:04:53):
Somewhere, or or your lunch time could have been dinner. Okay,
But I think it's in that twelve to twenty four hours.
But then again, you poop so fast so often.

Speaker 9 (02:05:03):
Typically from ten hours to well, it says there's a
wide range of time for food to digest completely I
have to imagine the longer digestion times for people who
are just putting just ghastly foods in their body. But
it says on average, it takes about six hours for
food to move.

Speaker 4 (02:05:19):
Through your upper and lower gi and you go three
times a day, so it I mean, it is possible.
I suppose that tonight's could be lunch, but I don't.
I can't imagine it is. I think tomorrow morning's is lunch.
I think you're probably right. Tonight's probably will not be lunch. No,
I think that would be whatever dinner slash breakfast if
you had breakfast. I did not, so it would be

(02:05:42):
your leftovers from dinner dinner.

Speaker 9 (02:05:46):
Yeah, all right, well okay, I will now again there's
simply no way for me to be able to track
this well, or tracked this if you will, but I'll
keep an eye on it.

Speaker 2 (02:06:00):
Peak for some broccoli.

Speaker 9 (02:06:03):
I'll pay attention tomorrow morning, as you know, as you know,
I don't look. Wow, Bob was right, Yeah, oh those
are little florests.

Speaker 2 (02:06:16):
Good to see you.

Speaker 9 (02:06:16):
Hey, that Cage and Samon did the trick. Maybe you
were familiar with this as a die hard Ozzie fan,
but I hadn't never never even heard about it, let
alone heard it in the late eighties, sorry, early eighties.
Remember Don was producer Don Was, Yeah, okay, he had

(02:06:39):
kind of this experimental pop band called Was Not Was
and it was. They had a couple of hits. They
walked the Dinosaur. They had another one. I don't remember
what it was called, but there was like ticket to
the Bridge, throw it overboard, see if it could swim?
Or was that squeeze? I was get those two confused. Nevertheless,
I think Was Not Was had walked the Dinosaur, but
he did a track with Madonna and Ozzy. They ended

(02:07:03):
up replacing Madonna with Kim Baysinger. The Madonna version. This
is very early in her career. The Madonna version ended
up on some obscure early nineties compilation, and I think
it's probably lived on YouTube since then.

Speaker 2 (02:07:19):
Have you ever heard this?

Speaker 7 (02:07:19):
No?

Speaker 2 (02:07:20):
Madonna and Ozzie Nope. I don't even know what it's called.
What is it called? Well, that's weird. Why would that
do that?

Speaker 3 (02:07:33):
Anyway, here's a clip of it for you much.

Speaker 2 (02:08:11):
How about that? It sounds fake almost, doesn't it? Okay?

Speaker 9 (02:08:16):
I it's called shake your Head and it was written
was not was was going to put out an album
in nineteen eighty three, and so it was on an album,
but it was Kim Basinger singing now Madonna. So the
Madonna version I guess never saw the light of day.

Speaker 2 (02:08:32):
Oh it's terrible.

Speaker 9 (02:08:34):
I don't know how they got Ozzie involved though it
was the eighties.

Speaker 2 (02:08:38):
High as a kite, Ozzy, you want to do something
with Madonna?

Speaker 5 (02:08:40):
Shoo.

Speaker 9 (02:08:41):
Madonna and her team blocked the approvals for the track.
She didn't even really want it to get out, and
they brought in Kim Basinger, who was just starting to
get kind of a movie career going, and they were
also trying to launch Kim Basinger as a pop star.
So in an alternate universe, before she and Alec Baldwin
were married, she would have been in movies and making albums.

Speaker 2 (02:09:04):
I hate everything about that. I didn't even know she
could sing.

Speaker 9 (02:09:09):
The original Madonna Ozzie duet was only on a rare
twelve inch vinyl, but they brought in Ozzy and they
had it remixed and it was out briefly overseas. It
was number four on the dance charts in the UK

(02:09:32):
in nineteen ninety two.

Speaker 2 (02:09:34):
Ozzie and Madonna. Yeah, I hate it.

Speaker 4 (02:09:44):
Oh that's the Kimba singer version, all I see.

Speaker 2 (02:10:05):
I hate that so much.

Speaker 4 (02:10:07):
It's just weird. It sounds like they pitched Ozzie up.
They probably did.

Speaker 9 (02:10:12):
And by the way, the kim Basinger version a little cleaner,
but it's not better. It's not any better than the
Madonna version.

Speaker 4 (02:10:18):
No, and Madonna sounded terrible, and that's why I thought
it was fake.

Speaker 2 (02:10:23):
I thought it was very early in her career too.

Speaker 4 (02:10:25):
Yeah, but I mean it sounded I think of eighty
three when was Borderline and stuff that was all around
that same time, wasn't it.

Speaker 2 (02:10:31):
Yeah, I thought so too.

Speaker 4 (02:10:32):
So like she still sounded like Madonna and that song
she sounds nothing like her.

Speaker 9 (02:10:36):
Yeah, Borderline was eighty three. Yeah, first album.

Speaker 2 (02:10:41):
Alan.

Speaker 4 (02:10:41):
You should use corn as a timer. Eat corn and
find out as a timer. Oh, I love that so much.
Swallow some food. Coloring with your meals. You can time

(02:11:03):
your movements, just the corn the corner. Why is Dad's
tongue green?

Speaker 9 (02:11:08):
Always trying to figure out which poops correspond to which Honey,
I'm just doing.

Speaker 2 (02:11:13):
It's an experiment, all right.

Speaker 4 (02:11:15):
Those fake fruit loops, man, I told you that I
ate that whole box of generic fruit loops one time.

Speaker 2 (02:11:21):
Yeah, drunk, late night. It was probably my twenties, A
bunch of dye and then you poop them. I had
a whole.

Speaker 4 (02:11:27):
Box at like three o'clock in the morning, and I
went to the bathroom next day thought I was dying.
It was sky Blue. I thought, I'm like, that's it.
I'm going to that's it. I'm dead. It's over. I've
destroyed my insides completely. Then I called a friend and
had them come look at it.

Speaker 2 (02:11:42):

Speaker 5 (02:12:25):
On one seven Dommas.

Speaker 2 (02:12:45):
Three five.

Speaker 9 (02:12:46):
Want to send me a text if you listen to
us on my Heart radio.

Speaker 2 (02:12:51):
Tell me where you do that.

Speaker 9 (02:12:52):
If you are from out of state, make sure you
are on a map of bureau Chieves. Travis is a
brand new listener in Pittsburgh, penns joining our Steel City
contingency there. Contingent Carrie is in Clayton, North Carolina. Wild
Willie is in Windsor, Colorado. Somebody texted me top of

(02:13:15):
the show today and they were like, I wrote them
back another follow up question. I don't know if they
hit me back or not, but they were like, need
some advice. My wife and I just moved here from
Colorado and she already wants to go back, and I'm like, well,
you know, the change of venue, this probably isn't the
perfect time to have moved to northeast Ohio.

Speaker 2 (02:13:38):
Here's weather goes.

Speaker 9 (02:13:39):
But you know, we had friends that at one point
over the past fifteen years, all of our friends pretty
much converged in Denver at one point or another because
for a while it was kind of on the come
up and they were trying.

Speaker 2 (02:13:54):
Denver was one of.

Speaker 9 (02:13:55):
The earliest metropolitan areas that really made a huge, huge
push to get people to move downtown. Cleveland has done
it with varying degrees of success, but Denver was one
of those that was really putting resources in public funds
into revitalizing downtown and not that it was burned out
and it's a bigger metropolitanara than Cleveland, but they were

(02:14:18):
kind of used as an example of how to do
that and how to do it successfully over But then,
you know, as with a lot of cities, when they
get real popular, people get priced out. And so friends
of ours who had moved from Seattle and Michigan and
whatever all end up in Denver and then over the
years all moved out and so but it's a beautiful
part of the country Colorado. You can hike and do
all kinds of stuff.

Speaker 4 (02:14:39):
But friends of ours who finally left Denver and moved
to Detroit and it's still early days, well they're renting
until they find a house. And again, depending on where
you are, you know, there's people who.

Speaker 9 (02:14:52):
Want to take advantage of Detroit being on the come up,
but that's still real spotty too. I mean, it is
technically on the come up, and there are people who've
gotten some amazing pieces of property in the city. But yeah,
also kind of had to do it maybe like a
year and a half ago. Because it's kind of getting

(02:15:15):
in that wonky area there.

Speaker 4 (02:15:16):
I will say, I think I bought as much of
a pain in the ass as everything has been with
the house I bought and all the issues I've had
and everything else, I think I bought at the best
possible time to try to get out now if I
wanted to, really, Yeah, because I think I can make
because it's enough that i'll get as a seller market yeah,

(02:15:38):
well kind.

Speaker 2 (02:15:38):
Of sort of.

Speaker 4 (02:15:39):
Yeah, but I think I can at the very least
get back.

Speaker 2 (02:15:42):
What I put into it, which would be nice.

Speaker 9 (02:15:45):
I mean, I guess that's the breaking even, you mean,
the least of what you could hope for. I can
put some money in my pocket. I yeah, okay, I
think we'll find out. Well, I never know, you know,
just for shrimps and gig you know. Sometimes I'll see
what the worth of my house is and I never
know if these are fantasies or not. I'm like, this

(02:16:07):
can't be right. Oh, you've got to have a ton
of equity.

Speaker 4 (02:16:10):
Oh my god, I mean it's almost paid off, right,
Oh yeah, yeah, it's and then where you are.

Speaker 9 (02:16:14):
Yeah, that's what I'm saying. So it goes here's the
current value of your house. I'm like, it's like two
and a half times what I paid for it. Like,
this can't be real. But obviously nothing is worth anything
unless somebody's going to spend that money for it.

Speaker 4 (02:16:26):
But then you got to go buy something, you know, Right,
I'm in a situation where I mean, I'm not going
to I'll just I'll sell it and go rent at something. Yeah,
you know, like, I just I don't care. There's a
lot of nice stuff for rent for what I'm paying.
I mean, trouble is, rents are the same as mortgages
now too. Yeah, but again what yeah, either way, I know,
the only good thing about renting it is when something breaks,

(02:16:47):
I'm not on the hook for it.

Speaker 13 (02:16:49):
Right.

Speaker 9 (02:16:51):
Well, yeah, home ownership isn't really home ownership. It's aspirational. Yeah,
it's a mental thing.

Speaker 23 (02:16:56):
Right.

Speaker 9 (02:16:56):
The bank owns your house till it's paid off. So
it's like, but people have this idea their heads that
that's you know, if you just rented for the rest
of your life and took the money that you were
going to spend otherwise on all the other crap that
comes along with home ownership, you have a million dollars
in a roth Ira by the end of it.

Speaker 4 (02:17:12):
Of course, and it's it's so it is. I mean,
real estate can be a great thing if you're able
to play it right. I've had Look my buddies who
made a lot of money in real estate, you know.
And it's also in part because they got handed their grandparents' house.

Speaker 14 (02:17:26):
You know.

Speaker 4 (02:17:27):
So your first house was free, and then you sell
it and that's all cash on your next house, and
then you know, so so on and so forth.

Speaker 2 (02:17:33):
I never had that opportunity.

Speaker 4 (02:17:35):
I mean, I bought my first house at the absolute
worst possible time and had to short sell it to
get out of it when I moved to Rhode Island.
So it was like absolute awful nightmares with houses. And
I don't know why the hell I thought I should
just buy right away from here. I was like, you
know what, that would be smart. Yes, time it'll be different, right,
But I wanted it's just me being a sucker for

(02:17:56):
my kids. I wanted them to have that this is
our home, yeah, to start school. You buy it for
the you know, I've said it before, and it sounds
I'm like, I didn't buy a house for me.

Speaker 2 (02:18:06):
No, I don't care.

Speaker 4 (02:18:07):
If I would have rented the rest of my life,
I would say for us.

Speaker 9 (02:18:11):
No, it's for you guys, It's not for me, Absolutely
not for me. You buy a house for you know,
if you're married, you got a kid. I'm like, I
don't care.

Speaker 2 (02:18:20):
I'm lazy.

Speaker 4 (02:18:20):
I don't rent it my whole life. I would add
a condle if it were to me rent the condo.
I don't care. What do I care? I don't see
my neighbors as it is. I'm gonna go hang out
in the guy Liz right next to me. No, of
course not. And by the way, you got Hoa, there's
no way they'd let ducks, no doubt.

Speaker 2 (02:18:34):
Side of an Hoa.

Speaker 9 (02:18:35):
Sure, they're going to tell you what color you can
paint your mailbox, but they wouldn't put up with any
of that duck Michiga.

Speaker 4 (02:18:42):
No, of course not. I was texting with one of
the guys that get along really well with in my neighborhood.
He's a buddy of mine, and I was like, hey, man,
I was like, I'm gonna need that power washer before
you put it away for the winter. I got a
couple of spots I want to clean up, and they're
gonna come take pictures of the house and stuff. He's like,
wait what And I was like, the Ducks man, the
Ducks win. I'm like, I can't do it. I gotta

(02:19:04):
get out of here.

Speaker 2 (02:19:05):
Yeah. He's like shut up. I'm like no, no, no, no, no, no,
i gotta go shut up.

Speaker 9 (02:19:10):
That's what I've been telling the Ducks every four hours.

Speaker 2 (02:19:12):
I said, I have a number in my mind.

Speaker 4 (02:19:15):
If we get there after the realtor runs through and
the you know, I'm out. He's like, no, you can't.
I'm like, yeah, yeah, I did. I can, and I will.
I can and I will, and we'll still hang out.
We'll still be friends. But I gotta I gotta go.
The Ducks win.

Speaker 9 (02:19:27):
It's like when you're a kid and you move away,
you tell him you'll still be friends. We'll still right yeah,
oh yeah, you never do rob, you never do.

Speaker 14 (02:19:33):
No, No, I would.

Speaker 4 (02:19:34):
I actually really like this dude, So I would absolutely
wonderful family, So I absolutely would stay in touch with them.
That I don't have a lot of friends here, like
you know, no, same two or three people that I
talked to. But I'm you know, like you, I made
my friends when I was young. Those are the people
I still talk to all the time. Yeah, I don't
have anything like that.

Speaker 2 (02:19:55):
Alan.

Speaker 9 (02:19:55):
My mom grew up in Bolder and married my dad,
who's from here in a little later for family reasons,
they finally moved to Ohio, and I think it took
her about twenty years to accept living in Ohio. Well,
uh yeah, I guess we've just moved around so much
as adults that I don't even really think about it
that much.

Speaker 2 (02:20:14):
I think, obviously it's been a while. I've been here
almost sixteen years, but before that it was all over
the place. I think Melissa still secretly hates me for
moving to Ohio.

Speaker 9 (02:20:22):
My wife is from outside Detroit, she's from Michigan. She's like,
I swore on my ancestors graves I would never live
in Ohio, and look where you've brought me.

Speaker 2 (02:20:32):
Yeah.

Speaker 9 (02:20:33):
Like, and our kid was born here, born and raised
in Ohio.

Speaker 2 (02:20:37):
Yeah, so no way around.

Speaker 4 (02:20:39):
That, crossing the MS out of things on our papers.

Speaker 2 (02:20:44):
So silly.

Speaker 9 (02:20:45):
She's like, do I have to root for Michigan teams
or Chicago? I go, no, you're from here. My older
kids were born in Pittsburgh, you know, they grew up
in Michigan. But they were both born in Pittsburgh, so
were they Pittsburgh fans of Like, I don't even know
that that's on their radar. I mean, no, neither of them.
They're not like sports, you know, yeah, not really. I

(02:21:08):
mean I'm casual at best, you know what I mean.
Like the couple of teams I really do, like I
drilled down on, but it's not like I'm, you know,
betting thousands of dollars or whatever. I heard a couple
of guys out there talking earlier today about fantasy football. Yeah,
and I could tell context clues. These were two people,
by the way you want to talk about this kind

(02:21:29):
of stuff, bringing people together. These were two people, by
the way, we all worked together. I didn't even know
they knew each other. And they were talking, Oh, man,
you killed me last week. Oh you killed me last week.
I was like, wow, okay, it's probably the league that
I was forced to run. Yes, and they were they
were talking about whatever they were talking about. I was
able to infurther it was fantasy football. I was like, wow,

(02:21:50):
you guys are I mean, because.

Speaker 4 (02:21:52):
What the pot's like two hundred bucks, no, five hundred,
seven hundred dollars? No, what is it? It's much higher. Oh,
it is like a couple grand. It's like I think
it's I mean, i'd have to look. I think it's
over grand. Yeah, oh yeah, Oh I didn't know that. Yeah,
I don't know. If we're one hundred of I think
it's one hundred of person twelve minutes and twelve hundred bucks,

(02:22:13):
so you pay out.

Speaker 2 (02:22:14):
I think first prize wins.

Speaker 9 (02:22:15):
About the buying because back in the day when we
did it here, the buying was way less than that.

Speaker 2 (02:22:19):
I think first place.

Speaker 4 (02:22:20):
Wins like nine hundred bucks.

Speaker 9 (02:22:23):
Alan the ducks win is one of the funniest and
subsequently also saddest quotes I've heard on the show all year.

Speaker 2 (02:22:30):
Yeah it's true, Yeah, it really is.

Speaker 4 (02:22:32):
It.

Speaker 2 (02:22:33):
Listen.

Speaker 4 (02:22:33):
It's not the only reason that I want out of there,
but there's been a lot of things that have happened
and I've had to do with that house, and I
just feel like it's time to go. The ducks were
the the sprinkles on the ice cream. It was the
here you you want another reason to hate where you are,
here's these ducks.

Speaker 2 (02:22:54):
Twenty four to seven.

Speaker 4 (02:22:55):
Yeah, oh yeah, that woke me up yesterday day before,
like three o'clock in the morning, ducks.

Speaker 2 (02:23:04):
Something happened, something got into him, pissed him off. There
he is, he's there.

Speaker 9 (02:23:08):
I just can't believe that there hasn't been a concerted
neighborhood effort that would have.

Speaker 2 (02:23:14):
Resolved this situation before. Oh, I think that there was.

Speaker 4 (02:23:17):
I think they just do not give a shrimp about
anything that anybody else thinks.

Speaker 9 (02:23:22):
No, But I'm just saying, wouldn't there be I guess
there's no way that they can litigate it, right, I mean,
it's their property, they can.

Speaker 2 (02:23:28):
Do whatever they want.

Speaker 4 (02:23:28):
But there's like there's like a law that's what I'm
in the city, that says you can have up to fifteen.

Speaker 2 (02:23:33):
Or something like that that you can have them see.
So what do they care?

Speaker 4 (02:23:37):
I think people, I'm pretty sure people came over and
they like the neighborhood or I don't know who the
animal controls something, and they're like, you got to have
X number of things for these ducks. So they put it.
I don't know, they put up another piece of ply.
Wouldn't go we're done, so we're good here. They said
they're listening to ducks all goddamn.

Speaker 9 (02:23:55):
They aloie really need to make blowing through my gravy
a thing you can't shoe horn that. Yeah, they pooped
the two. You really pooped the two and everybody blowing
through their gravy when they're making their leftover sandwiches.

Speaker 2 (02:24:15):
Yeah.

Speaker 9 (02:24:16):
Gave away those Motley Crew tickets and uh, they go
on sale tomorrow morning and it's next summer.

Speaker 2 (02:24:21):
And I was I mentioned it as we went to break.

Speaker 9 (02:24:23):
But I think it would be awesome if those guys,
you know, Corey Roddick had Nicky six on his show
the other night, and I think it would be awesome
if they toured at with their real names.

Speaker 2 (02:24:32):
I know that they've got a brand and they've got.

Speaker 9 (02:24:34):
A but I think that they it would be a
kind of a nice coat of paint because Nicky six
was defending Vince Neil's voice how well he took one
Lucky night and used that as the whole you know,
he was doing a he was I don't know if
it was an am an read it. I don't know
what it was, but he was doing some press for

(02:24:56):
the upcoming tour and he was answering some fans and
somebody was like, Vince needs to get in shape and
fix his voice before you guys go on tour. Yes,
And NICKI said, did you hear him in Vegas? He
sounded solid and badass.

Speaker 4 (02:25:11):
Was that when he was running across the stage and
caught the thing and fell flat on his fat face?

Speaker 14 (02:25:15):
Yeah?

Speaker 4 (02:25:15):
I don't know about that, but it's like if he
accidentally had a good night in Vegas.

Speaker 9 (02:25:19):
That's not an answer to that guy's question.

Speaker 2 (02:25:22):
Did you hear did you see that clip?

Speaker 4 (02:25:24):
No, he's running across the state, well, waddling across the
stage at a faster rate than normal, catches the edges
in the middle, sting here like it, falls flat on
his face.

Speaker 2 (02:25:38):
Let me see here. Wait, this might not be it.
I don't know.

Speaker 9 (02:25:49):
It's like a six minute Vince Neil falling on stage.

Speaker 4 (02:25:51):
He runs, he catches the corner of the riser, the
drum riser, and flat on his or maybe it's like
a like a ramp going up he catches that.

Speaker 2 (02:26:01):
Let me see here.

Speaker 4 (02:26:02):
There you hear the thud, Oh I'm sorry, I went
my pest. Oh wow, there's other angles of it.

Speaker 2 (02:26:29):
You just hear like you hear the mic hit the grinds.

Speaker 9 (02:26:31):
People can never People filled everything and nobody can ever
get the stuff that is happening in frame.

Speaker 4 (02:26:39):
I don't understand it. He's in the center of your frame.
You've widened out to get a lot of the stage right.
You think he might follow Vince Neil.

Speaker 9 (02:26:49):
No, he like you kind of see him fall out
of frame and then they like, you know, swish pan
over to him.

Speaker 4 (02:26:55):
By that time he's on the ground. There's an angle
of it. You can see it, people trying to you know.
It's like when you'll see I don't know again. People
are filming everything all the time, and you'll see things
either in like news clips or whatever or oh, I
know it was when that ups plane went down crashed right.
There was so much footage of that, and people were

(02:27:18):
like they got the there is a plane falling from
the sky, and I know what happens quickly, but it's
not hard to keep that in frame all the way down.
And you have people like reacting, oh, like it's.

Speaker 9 (02:27:33):
Not a frame, like what is this? Why am I
looking at the ground all of a sudden. People just
freak out when it it's something like that happens, I guess,
But it's not like it was gonna fall on them,
you know. I mean, there was the obviously the best
videos were dash cams because they're fixed, right.

Speaker 2 (02:27:51):
Uh.

Speaker 9 (02:27:51):
But yeah, the way that people or you'll somebody trying
to film a fight for World Star or something and
it's like pointing to the ground, like why am I'm
just here to watch your dumb video and you can't
even frame it properly.

Speaker 4 (02:28:06):
You know, there is a good angle to him eating it,
but that that wasn't it.

Speaker 9 (02:28:11):
Alan is rob concerned that the ducks might be a
problem when trying to sell the house. No, okay, I
think I think you should try to sedate them when
you're showing people around them.

Speaker 4 (02:28:24):
I think the biggest challenge for me is that they
covered it with this gigantic, stupid ass white tarp, so
it looks like they have a huge tent in their yard.
But I think that that could be like that's an
outdoor play thing for the kids. Hey, you know, like
I just hope it's something like that, and that the
ducks aren't particularly ornery when we're showing the house.

Speaker 9 (02:28:49):
Ornery What a great word. You don't really hear that
one off? Ornery ducks? Ornery ducks. No, this guy, where's
he be?

Speaker 2 (02:28:59):
Comes out? Yeah, I've been hibernating, bro. Hey, you're homosexual.

Speaker 4 (02:29:05):
It's almost Christmas time. Oh pee pee poo, peepee, poo,
poo po pepee poo, poo, poo, pee pee poo, poo,
pee pee poo, poo, pee pee poo, oh peepee poo,
pee pee poo, poo, poop peep.

Speaker 2 (02:29:16):
Do you see what's going on there? I the sure do.
I can't. I can't, I can't do it, Rob, No,
that's uh.

Speaker 4 (02:29:24):
I almost feel like it's it's not trying that hard either,
Like it's just another a reconditioned version of the scene.

Speaker 9 (02:29:30):
So I'm saying, you can't keep going back to that.

Speaker 4 (02:29:32):
Well, yeah, man, you gotta Christmas remix of that song. Yeah,
you're coming at me with that when I have Festive
Glory hole in the chamber?

Speaker 2 (02:29:43):
Well you nuts? Have you heard Rob Hayes Ducks bro
And we're rolling.

Speaker 18 (02:29:48):
High Station November's shoe a panel of ped on the
window sill with a circle cut out?

Speaker 9 (02:29:56):
Oh, Alan, how do you know that there's two guys
were talking about fantasy football and not the festive Glory whole.

Speaker 4 (02:30:04):
I don't know what's behind that past boy.

Speaker 2 (02:30:08):
I really got it shoved in there this weekend. Yeah, sure,
that's the glory hole.

Speaker 7 (02:30:14):
What could it be?

Speaker 2 (02:30:17):
I'll tell you what.

Speaker 9 (02:30:17):
One of the songs that they do play over there
on Magic as part of their Christmas itinerary. I think
it's Sinatra where they spell jingle boy. I do not
like that song. K I N G L E bells.

Speaker 2 (02:30:32):
I'm like jingle bells. Jingle bells. Yeah, you love.

Speaker 9 (02:30:36):
It for me, man, that's the one that like Fallon
always parodies. Right, I'm not sure it can do no wrong,
So for me, it's okay. No, I get it. That's
there's a reason they play that because it's probably wildly popular.

Speaker 2 (02:30:48):
But I hear it and I'm like, no, thank you
as if. Yeah, no, festive glory Hole over there on Magic.

Speaker 4 (02:30:54):
What about Oldie timey Christmas? Have they squeezed that when
it yet?

Speaker 9 (02:30:57):
I have not heard Oldie time and Christmas either.

Speaker 2 (02:30:59):
No the glory no a pot of the joy, mister.
This song goes into.

Speaker 4 (02:31:10):
The archives of the Allan Cox Show all because of
one light switch in the background that you call the
festive glory. Yeah, that's all it took, and here we
have all that.

Speaker 2 (02:31:23):
The beauty of it.

Speaker 9 (02:31:23):
Yes, all it took is from some dumb comment that
then Eric turns into a song.

Speaker 7 (02:31:35):
Well, it looks like aside, what are our glad rags again?

Speaker 6 (02:31:37):
Although this whole thing sounds like a bunch of hogem
and prim flam to me, say, newsboy, which way to
the closest speak easy?

Speaker 5 (02:31:45):
Have an only timey.

Speaker 9 (02:31:47):
Christmas like the times of yes their Yeah, I really
should do a Thanksgiving song.

Speaker 2 (02:31:53):
Gams and legs for ams.

Speaker 6 (02:31:55):
Have the bomb made?

Speaker 2 (02:31:56):
Grab a beer?

Speaker 9 (02:31:58):
Have an only Time Christmas?

Speaker 2 (02:32:01):
Getting dizzy with the Dame.

Speaker 9 (02:32:05):
If she smiles off, whyse box around me?

Speaker 8 (02:32:10):
Maybe not?

Speaker 2 (02:32:12):
Maybe not?

Speaker 4 (02:32:13):
Okay, I mean I'm here for it, man, There's been
so much Christmas around us already. Anyway, I think this
and uh, I think Festive gloryhole opened the door for Christmas.

Speaker 2 (02:32:25):
Music to be played on this show.

Speaker 9 (02:32:27):
Yeah, I know, okay, Yeah. People are asking me about
Dick from Dayton. I have no information. Somebody somebody said
I was mentioning at the top of the show. That's
a listener hit me up and said that they were
in some radio message board online.

Speaker 4 (02:32:44):
And somebody has said that they had heard the Dick
from Dayton was dead. I haven't heard that at all.

Speaker 9 (02:32:49):
I have to think that because he calls so many
radio stations that word of that would have gotten around
to somebody if that were the case. Can't count of that, obviously,
But I have no people asking me for I have
no information. We're kind of at the mercy of when
he calls. Maybe everyone was talking about the Dick Cheney funeral.

Speaker 2 (02:33:06):
Maybe that's what did it.

Speaker 14 (02:33:08):
Well.

Speaker 9 (02:33:08):
It will have the unintended consequence, though, of people will
never be more excited to hear from Dick than the
next time he calls.

Speaker 4 (02:33:16):
Yes, I'm just hoping, I mean we can. We can
probably find out. I mean, we we found him online, right,
so I'm sure we could find.

Speaker 2 (02:33:26):
If.

Speaker 4 (02:33:27):
I mean, I'll just look for I'll keep looking to
see if there's an no bit. Yeah, yes, I really
hope that isn't true.

good taste? Yeah, it's dude, it was uh. He did
the Mike Douglas Show, did the Ed Sullivan Show. Dominic
it was gone forever.

Speaker 4 (02:40:37):
And when I was like, I don't know, seventeen, when
I started in radio, I started playing it on the
station I was on, and it just sort of made
this big charge of a comeback across the Northeast, and
everybody knew what it was and they'd requested.

Speaker 2 (02:40:50):
And it was and putting your hand into the box, crap.

Speaker 9 (02:41:03):
Wow, all right, m well, there you go. Peppino the
Italian Mouse.

Speaker 4 (02:41:08):
So there's Peppino in the Dominic's the big deal. Dominic's
the big Christmas One Christmas at our house is you know,
there was a bunch of them. He had, you know,
different versions of Italian songs for Christmases.

Speaker 9 (02:41:18):
It's a boy Usa that I don't think you that
one pistol peck and Mama that's a classic. Oh yeah,
sounds the Sheriff of Sicily, I know that one the
three Italian Bears.

Speaker 4 (02:41:28):
He did one about goom. What did Washington say when
he crossed the Delaware.

Speaker 2 (02:41:32):
The pizzas cold or whatever?

Speaker 6 (02:41:33):
Right?

Speaker 2 (02:41:34):
Yeah, yeah, let's see Dominic the Donkey, the Italian Yeah,
what did Washington say? That was the That was the
b side to Peppino. It's got a lot of songs.

Speaker 4 (02:41:47):
What did Washington, say where he crossed the doll laware Yeah, Dallia, Man,
it was a it's an interesting life.

Speaker 2 (02:41:55):
I guess. So we didn't have anything like super ethnic
in my house like that. We grew.

Speaker 4 (02:41:59):
I mean, listen, man at my grandfather one hundred percent Italian,
my grandmother one hundred percent Portuguese, Portuguese all temper.

Speaker 2 (02:42:06):
That's where I get all of my my You should
see my mother.

Speaker 4 (02:42:11):
We we didn't have that. We stuffed everything down. I
was petrifiling Irish my mother. Dude, she had or has
the ability to like, she's a woman you will never
mess with. She's not big by any means, but you
look at it and you're like, okay, yeah, I'm not gonnass.
She's a little Portuguese lady Italian. Yeah, half and half.

(02:42:32):
That's that combination. Boy, this is what pussy come. This
is Peppino's friend.

Speaker 5 (02:42:44):
Oh boy, I never.

Speaker 2 (02:42:47):
See I don't know if any of these things are well.
I was gonna say, so was it.

Speaker 9 (02:42:50):
I can't imagine that this had a broad appeal beyond Italians.

Speaker 2 (02:42:54):
I don't think it. I don't think it had to.

Speaker 4 (02:42:57):
I could sell enough with that stuff that that dominic
the Donkey did obviously, but I don't know that it.

Speaker 9 (02:43:02):
Was prior to after he was dead, because I mean,
he had competition in that arena, not these goofy little songs,
but like Perry Como and Sinatra thing.

Speaker 4 (02:43:13):
But they were all crooners. They were all doing that thing.
And and and you know, lou MONTI found his niche
it was doing songs like Lazy Mary. She answered back,
lazy remember, you better get up. We need the shoots
for the table. You ever heard that song?

Speaker 13 (02:43:29):
This one?

Speaker 2 (02:43:30):
It starts in Italian?

Speaker 9 (02:43:31):
Yeah, this is all Italian. Okay, this sounds like he's
playing to an audience.

Speaker 5 (02:43:43):
Yeah.

Speaker 4 (02:43:43):
So he sings it, then he gets and then he
makes the joke in the middle for our friends who
don't speak Italian language. I will now perform the next
verse in British. Oh boy, I see what he did there.

Speaker 7 (02:43:54):
I get it.

Speaker 2 (02:43:57):
Yeah, these are all in Italian. Wait, hold on understand
ingially on the language.

Speaker 13 (02:44:03):
There you go.

Speaker 2 (02:44:07):
I might have tried two choruses and cola bras. See
the joke. Is it still a town?

Speaker 7 (02:44:13):
Ye?

Speaker 9 (02:44:14):
Get it?

Speaker 2 (02:44:15):
Dial lazy Mary, you better get up, she's back.

Speaker 25 (02:44:21):
Why I'm not able?

Speaker 13 (02:44:25):
Lazy Merry get better? Get up.

Speaker 2 (02:44:27):
We need the sheets on the tables. Lazy Marry is
fucking there's only one man you should Marry. My advice
to you would be is to pay your mention to me.
So this guy, this guy would do all your nightclubs
and stuff, right.

Speaker 4 (02:44:48):
I think he was for sure, but he would also
those dinner theaters were a big thing better in the day,
and he would do those.

Speaker 2 (02:44:54):
But I mean he was playing big rooms and stuff too.

Speaker 14 (02:44:57):
Wow.

Speaker 2 (02:44:58):
Yeah, Dominic was the that woul like the big for
most people. That was like the entry. It was Peppino
and Dominic were the two big, big deals.

Speaker 17 (02:45:07):
You know, what.

Speaker 2 (02:45:17):
Is the family guys.

Speaker 4 (02:45:30):
I think he's the conceit there is that he's inserted
himself in the La la land and it's supposed to
be Ryan Gosling playing the piano in a jazz club
and Peter Griffin wants him to sing Dominic the Donkan
Dominic was a huge deal, man. I think it's more
common than most things like in that genre. Yeah again,

(02:45:52):
I only know it from you, and then other people
were blowing me up at the time. Oh my god,
we listened to Dominic that I just gotta text from
my body of mind. It's from these Ohio, I am
zero percent Italian and Dominic. The Donkey has always been
my favorite Christmas song.

Speaker 9 (02:46:04):
Wow, it's certainly jaunty. Maybe I'll play it for my
nine year old see if she likes I bet you
shall love it.

Speaker 2 (02:46:11):
She probably will. She's probably gonna roll.

Speaker 4 (02:46:12):
Around and be like, oh my god, this is why
are you playing this for me?

Speaker 2 (02:46:16):
That's terrible? What is this guy without papers? Dad the radio?

Speaker 4 (02:46:25):
Well?

Speaker 13 (02:46:26):
Well?

Speaker 27 (02:46:27):
Alan Ken formerly in Pittsford, now Ken in Tampa, Florida.
Here not too familiar with Van Halen's music before, you know,
listening to all the David Lee Roth drops, and I
guess I didn't.

Speaker 2 (02:46:40):
Realize that almost all, if not all, of those drops
are from the same song.

Speaker 27 (02:46:47):
I just assumed it was over the entire discography, that
he's making all these crazy noises. And I find there's
just one song running with the Devil. What a crazy man?
Hate the show?

Speaker 5 (02:46:55):
Bye?

Speaker 18 (02:46:55):
Oh?

Speaker 2 (02:46:56):
I love that he's like.

Speaker 9 (02:46:57):
Oh, I thought he was just a compendium of all
of David Lee Roth's wild noises.

Speaker 2 (02:47:00):
Nope, all from the same song.

Speaker 4 (02:47:01):
That's why Wolfe said what he said, Yeah, made a
lot of noises, made a lot of noises.

Speaker 2 (02:47:10):
He got like four different versions of that.

Speaker 4 (02:47:17):
I'll tell you all about it, even his nice little
uh whistle wolf.

Speaker 9 (02:47:30):
He got a nice ride up though locally he did. Yeah, yeah,
I mean a great show. Plain Dealer and the Scene
both said it was a great show.

Speaker 4 (02:47:36):
I'm telling you, I've been listening uh to that that
opening band uh return dust. They're good man, that's it
sounds like they stacked the deck. I mean, you know,
and Miles always tough to beat, Miles Kennedy. It was
a good show, really really good show. The Mits felt
off at the beginning of Miles, so I don't know
if they were having an issue in the room or what,
but they got it dialed in, and I mean, Wolfy

(02:47:58):
sounded so good, Allen.

Speaker 9 (02:48:00):
After all that lou Monty, Rob can never talk any
more shrimp about Jimmy Buffett.

Speaker 4 (02:48:05):
I could talk anything I want, because you know what,
I have of an.

Speaker 2 (02:48:08):
Opinion just like you do.

Speaker 3 (02:48:09):
Pal.

Speaker 2 (02:48:09):
Oh, yeah, how do you like?

Speaker 9 (02:48:10):
I just happen to have a microphone in front of
my head. One has nothing to do with the other,
that's right. Yeah, lou Monty. Now try to get Rob
to do listen to that. Lou Monty Jimmy Buffett duet
called Dominic the tequila sucking Monkey or whatever donkey.

Speaker 2 (02:48:27):
I guess I would probably have a hard time with that.

Speaker 4 (02:48:29):
But I also know that lou Monty had taste and
stayed away from people like Jimmy Buffett because he.

Speaker 2 (02:48:35):
Knew he was tracked. Wow, shots fired about that. Yeah, Yeah,
that's right. I said it.

Speaker 14 (02:48:42):
Man.

Speaker 19 (02:48:42):
You guys got to start the show off with that
song every day so Rob could be in a better mood.

Speaker 5 (02:48:48):
I thought he was gonna kill somebody earlier.

Speaker 6 (02:48:50):
Today.

Speaker 2 (02:48:51):
I know you weren't mad.

Speaker 19 (02:48:53):
I'm just saying, Rob, you a little spicy at the
top of the show, and now you're freaking tap answering
around the studio listening to this song.

Speaker 14 (02:49:03):
It's amazing.

Speaker 5 (02:49:04):
I love it, Okay, Richel Northfield doodles.

Speaker 9 (02:49:08):
See, this is what I'm saying. It is the pendulum
of emotion that we run through every day on this show, Rob.

Speaker 2 (02:49:14):
Every day.

Speaker 4 (02:49:15):
It's the nostalgia. I get the nostalgia in my family.
I'm thinking to my grandfather dancing around clapping, singing those
songs to us.

Speaker 2 (02:49:20):
Yeah, I'm happy. Think about any one of our listeners.

Speaker 9 (02:49:24):
I want you to envision a four hour window of
your day, just living your life four hours and the
spectrum of emotions that you might go through in that
span of time.

Speaker 4 (02:49:37):
We'd all hear the same thing happens here. Yeah, yep,
I just happen to be a dick more often than not.
So that's kind of why you feel the difference right now.

Speaker 2 (02:49:50):
And it turns out to be somewhat lucrative. What's up, guys,
it's waffles.

Speaker 6 (02:49:57):
Hey.

Speaker 19 (02:49:57):
I was just listening to you guys talking about, you know,
walking to a show but for the uh cruise. My
girlfriend and I parked downtown by the radio station so
we could stop at Seelie Clothing Company, and then walked
all the.

Speaker 2 (02:50:10):
Way down to the cruise and then walked back. So
I don't know how far that is, but far good exercise.
Yeah it's not too Yeah it's not close. You did
the same thing, didn't you.

Speaker 24 (02:50:20):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (02:50:20):
I park here and walked to the boat.

Speaker 4 (02:50:21):
Screw that.

Speaker 2 (02:50:22):
I walk all over the place.

Speaker 9 (02:50:23):
I love having this park and sat downtown anywhere within
let's say a ten mile radius, rop I will park
here and free. Yeah, I mean, let's say I'm going
to go to a show at the House of Blues.

Speaker 2 (02:50:37):
Did it on Friday night.

Speaker 9 (02:50:40):
I will park here, Rob, I will walk all the
way down to the House of Blues. That's a nice
and easy when I ask, how we do is it?
But walk into the boat's great too. You walk down
to that walk down the rock hall. When we did
the rush thing, I walked all the way down to
the rock Hall.

Speaker 2 (02:50:54):
Yeah, no way, no, I wasn't gonna do with my kid.

Speaker 9 (02:50:56):
When I when I went to Saint Vincent and I
had my daughter, we parked at the Great Lake Science.

Speaker 2 (02:51:01):
Center and the boat that day. But I'll walk. The
cruise was hot as balls. Yeah, walked all that way down.
I like getting my steps. I like walking.

Speaker 9 (02:51:09):
I will if I start walking, I'll just keep walking.

Speaker 2 (02:51:13):
Okay, like if I.

Speaker 9 (02:51:14):
Don't have seriously, if I don't have a destination in mind,
which is why I need one, I will keep walking.

Speaker 8 (02:51:20):
Now.

Speaker 4 (02:51:20):
The trouble that is, you gotta walk back. Yeah, but yeah,
I'll keep walking. One day, for no particular reason, I
just started walking. I started walking down in the Rock
and Roll Hall of Fame and decided I just gonna
keep going.

Speaker 2 (02:51:32):
But the damn lake was in the way, so I
turned to go by.

Speaker 4 (02:51:35):
That's exactly what I did, yep, I sold tulips on
the highway, make twenty bucks. Now I must leave you,
as the Brady bunch is on and I find four
of those children incredibly arousing.

Speaker 5 (02:51:50):
Get out of here.

Speaker 8 (02:51:51):
Be careful of what you say, Be careful in every way,
Be careful of what you do. Big Brother is watching you.
Be circumspect and discreet. Stay light on your mental feet.

(02:52:12):
One slip and you know you're through. Big Brother is
watching you, and.

Speaker 2 (02:52:19):
All with all narratives.

Speaker 8 (02:52:22):
Remember ovidios paid.

Speaker 5 (02:52:25):
And when you watch that.

Speaker 8 (02:52:27):
Davy screen, remember it works both ways. You disappear in
a wink. Unless you can double think, you'll vanish into
the blue. Big Brother is watching you.
