Good afternoon, Hi there, greetings, welcome.
Speaker 8 (01:10):
I'm going to scratch my neck rod for emphasis, oh,
to get myself right. This is how I you know,
sometimes you'll walk in here and I'll be doing my
vocal trills right to prepare for the show. I'll be
I'll be massaging my vocal cords. I'll be rubbing my throat.
Speaker 2 (01:34):
And whatever.
Speaker 9 (01:36):
You know.
Speaker 8 (01:36):
Sometimes at the top of the show, people will go
you okay, sound sick?
Speaker 10 (01:39):
I go no.
Speaker 8 (01:40):
I literally haven't spoken all day until two o'clock. There
are days where I say nothing until the beginning of
the show, which is probably not good. I should probably
exercise my voice a little bit though, right throughout the
course of the day. I should walk out into the
suite greetings, pears and.
Speaker 2 (01:58):
Colleagues, missing nothing. Well, nevertheless, people out there, and I
should bid them here here.
Speaker 8 (02:07):
I'm Alan Cox, thanks for being here. Rob Anthony's right
over there, and I'll tell you what. Tuesday in Cleveland, Ohio.
Speaker 2 (02:14):
You kidding me?
Speaker 8 (02:16):
One Bernard Kozar is living the first day of the
rest of his life.
Speaker 2 (02:20):
Yep. You might have seen the video that went wide
for good reason.
Speaker 8 (02:25):
It was a hallway full of healthcare workers at the
hospital that were clapping not for him, but for the
young man who ended up donating his liver to Bernie
Cozar every day.
Speaker 4 (02:35):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (02:36):
Yeah, that's uh yeah that that that parade is a
tough one to see, man.
Speaker 8 (02:42):
Well, shades of COVID, right, remember when they were they
were like all the healthcare was healthcare workers themselves that
were getting a lot of accolades and applause and things.
But it was the COVID years were rough for that
kind of stuff. Obviously, this is a situation where young
man voluntarily donated to those things.
Speaker 2 (02:57):
But are you an organ donor? You are all right,
are you?
Speaker 4 (03:02):
No?
Speaker 8 (03:03):
They can have my butthole and that's it. No, I'm kidding,
of course, I'm an orgon doner. Don't get any bright ideas, haters.
Uh No, I think yes, of course. Honor walk man,
every time you see that, you know, it's just get you.
I just I mean, Bernie Costar is obviously the face
(03:24):
of it because we know the story. But you know
that kid helped a lot of people.
Speaker 2 (03:28):
Is that what they're called an honor walk? That's what
it was called, Okay and honor walk.
Speaker 11 (03:33):
They take them from where they passed away, right, and
they bring him to the o R to start removing.
Speaker 2 (03:37):
Their because he has face blurred out and yeah, yeah,
and he had.
Speaker 11 (03:40):
The brown shirt on. It's really I mean yeah, and
then you just you see the family walking behind him
and people are crying.
Speaker 2 (03:45):
It's just that's so damn sad.
Speaker 11 (03:46):
I mean, there's so right, so much happiness on one side,
but it takes so much sadness on the other to
do it, you know, right.
Speaker 8 (03:53):
Alan, please sell Rob had been having a crap day
and that Zeppelin right before you guys came on really
lifted my spear. Oh me to that right, The Ocean's
favorite band, The Ocean. One of my favorite songs by them.
Speaker 2 (04:06):
That was never one.
Speaker 8 (04:07):
You know, back in the day, I had friends that
were into into Zeppelin more so than I was. I
didn't really dig into him until I started working classic
rock radio. But I always vibed with the Ocean and
nobody else seemed to and I couldn't figure it out.
I'm like, well, maybe it's play because I'm playing the
drums to it or what. But well, it seems like
a lot of heavy lifting there either.
Speaker 2 (04:27):
But like the one John Bonham song, I feel like
I could follow along with Yeah because his groove for
me is like I can't. I can't play that stuff.
I love it. You could play this this, I could
play Yeah, But I mean I can play my version
of it. I can't.
Speaker 8 (04:40):
There's no ghost notes or anything, and what I yeah? Anyway,
that's from Eric, hopefully his PostScript. Hopefully you guys don't
suck and bring me back down. Hey, listen, noure, this
is bro no promises. We weren't going to, but now
we are. Now we really want to. Yeah, no, now
I really really want to. Since you said that, and
unfortunately me sucking is completely beyond my control.
Speaker 2 (05:03):
I have no say in the matter.
Speaker 8 (05:07):
I will never once, in thirty years of broadcasting have
I ever at the end of the show taken my
headphones off, put them down and said.
Speaker 2 (05:16):
Man, that was great.
Speaker 8 (05:18):
That was some award winning broadca Not once have I
done that. Some days are better than others. If you
screwed up, you get a chance to do it all
over again the very next day. It's funny you say
that you don't. You really haven't ever. I guess I
never thought about it. We just end the show and whatever.
But you've never taken them off.
Speaker 2 (05:34):
For me, it has a good one after a segment.
Speaker 8 (05:37):
Maybe you and I have done that, right if we're
like laughing about something that just kind of hit us
just the right way.
Speaker 2 (05:42):
Yeah, you laughed at the break, yeah, or whatever. I mean,
that's a different thing.
Speaker 8 (05:46):
But it's like, you know, I tell people I go
every day, I have four hours of dead air that
I have to fill up, right, so you don't get
a chance to Pat yourself on the back as you
gotta go, and you gotta do it all over again
the next day, and it's uh, listen, it's a laborer off.
Speaker 11 (06:02):
I used your I used one of your lines yesterday
other day before with Kelly, my youngest daughter.
Speaker 2 (06:09):
She was like, Dad, don't let the door hit you
with a good log splitch. I do not say that
one though, I said.
Speaker 11 (06:15):
She was like, Dad, I was in the car with
one of my friends and her dad and he made
some comment really trying to be funny, and I realized,
like my friend's parents, like, they're not funny. She's like,
you're funny, and I go, Kelly, I'm a paid entertainer.
You see, I get paid to do this. You get
(06:36):
it for free, right, you get free?
Speaker 2 (06:38):
Right?
Speaker 4 (06:39):
Yeah.
Speaker 8 (06:39):
But also, irrespective of what people might think, right, nobody
gets paid to do this if they're not funny.
Speaker 2 (06:45):
Correct.
Speaker 8 (06:45):
So it's like you might not necessarily think we're funny,
but we've been getting paid. Some other people apparently think so,
and we've been getting paid for a long long time
to do it. But it's very annoying to me as
someone for whom it's very important to be funny. It's
very annoying to me when people who aren't funny really
(07:05):
are always trying to do it. I think you need
to know your strengths and weaknesses even if you are funny. Right,
there's not everybody's funny in the same way. And I'm
not talking about that. I think of people like Elon
Musk Right, it's this is the richest man in the world,
but he's still it's not enough for him a comment
every He has to have everyone think he's cool and funny.
He could not be further from either of those things.
(07:27):
You've seen him on SNL. You've seen him. You know
he's not funny at all. Doesn't have a funny bone
in his body. Wouldn't know a joke if it punched
him in the face.
Speaker 2 (07:34):
Not cool.
Speaker 8 (07:36):
I would think that you'd be okay with being a trillionaire,
but apparently not. That's how important a sense of humor is.
That you can be the richest person in the world
and you still like, I'd rather be funny. So listen,
are we rich in uh?
Speaker 2 (07:53):
Friends? Rob?
Speaker 4 (07:54):
Oh?
Speaker 2 (07:55):
We are rich in humor? Alan, I'm lowly with ass Oh,
what was the joke her friend's dad told, I don't
know it was something always love the little detail. It
was very dad joke, as she told me, and I
forgot it was very Yeah, but those are kind of
meant to flop, Like I do that to my daughter
all the time, and she'll just you know, she'll get
a little genuine chuckle out because but you know, they're
(08:17):
easier to take from somebody if you know that they've
kind of got the goods otherwise. Yeah, it was, but
it was it was like a forced type of not
good one is the way she explained it to me.
Speaker 8 (08:27):
And she was like, you know, it just it was
it wasn't you. And I'm like, oh, thank you, Alan,
big deal about the honor walk. I donate my organ
to my wife constantly. Oh yeah, see, I guess you're saying,
I guess you'd have to make a donation since she's
probably not requesting it all right, Hey listen, Uh, she
(08:51):
doesn't get to keep it.
Speaker 5 (08:52):
Huh.
Speaker 2 (08:52):
And she doesn't get to keep it, right, Indian giver,
can you still say that? I don't think you can.
They call it now. I don't know take backsies I do,
but it's something giver that would still be. It's not
that I have said that word. I even said that
phrasing thirty years agow. They don't know current nomenclature would be.
Speaker 8 (09:12):
I know it is considered a slur, but it's a
valid question about what replaced it in What is another
word for an Indian giver? There is no direct, non
offensive synonym for Indian giver.
Speaker 2 (09:26):
That's what this says. Well, then I apologize.
Speaker 8 (09:29):
Alternative phrases that have been suggested include boomerang, giver, lame, blame,
temporary giver, worse or take it backer terrible.
Speaker 2 (09:39):
They're all awful. Yeah, no take backsies. It was fine
in seventeen sixty five when it was originated, So I apologize.
I'm a throwback. What do you want?
Speaker 4 (09:49):
Come on?
Speaker 2 (09:49):
When James Abram Garfield was saying it, Yeah, it was fine.
We were talking about that show on Netflix called Death
by Lightning and it sounds dull if you're not into
American history. The cast is stacked and it's only four episodes.
It's about the assassination of President James Abram Garfield. Interesting
thing about that when you really think about it, if
you know your history is he was shot in March,
(10:13):
but he didn't die until September.
Speaker 11 (10:15):
Rob Yeah, because of his scumbag doctor who wouldn't listen
to the first guy.
Speaker 8 (10:19):
But he lived that long course around these parts. He's
famous because he was from Morland Hills. He's buried at
Lakeview Cemetery. But yeah, the twentieth present, So eighteen eighty one.
He shot in March by a guy named Charles Guiteau,
but died from his injuries in September.
Speaker 2 (10:34):
That that many months he lived.
Speaker 8 (10:37):
He died on September nineteenth, eighteen eighty one, which Rob
you might not know, was a Monday. Oh first day
of the week. And that's why Garfield hates Mondays. Gotta
take a break. Take that Calli's friend's dad. Let the
(10:57):
professional handle it, all right?
Speaker 2 (10:59):
You see that. That's how you craft a joke. Eh.
You go the Allen Cox Show.
Speaker 1 (11:05):
On one hundred sevens everything is so expensive. Instead of
buying new clothes, just wait for the rapture.
Speaker 2 (11:17):
He'll be surrounded by.
Speaker 4 (11:18):
Free stuff because, let's face it, you won't be going anywhere.
Another life hack from The Allen Cox Show.
Speaker 3 (11:26):
One seven wmms, Hey, your cavalier's got a big one.
Speaker 2 (11:41):
Last night.
Speaker 8 (11:42):
The Solid win one eighteen to one oh six over
the Milwaukee Bucks. There were no Slouches. Calves go to
ten and five second in the East, unbelievably behind the
Detroit Pistons.
Speaker 6 (11:55):
Uh.
Speaker 8 (11:55):
Former Cavs coach HQ Puffin Stuff is the skipper there
at the Little Caesars Arena. And you know, you can't
always count on the Pistons to be any good, but
they're very top right now. So last I see last
year they were getting it together. Yeah, he's they were
a hell of a coach man. Yeah, he's great, great.
(12:16):
I mean he just went right down the road.
Speaker 2 (12:17):
Right.
Speaker 8 (12:17):
What's his name, h Q Puffin Stuff. I think like
LQ Flicker Stick. I don't you know, but he's uh,
he's great Flickers. He's no Vinnie Microwave Johnson there with
the Detroit Pistons.
Speaker 2 (12:34):
But that's correct.
Speaker 8 (12:36):
We go from Detroit to the great City of Chicago,
Illinois and Sticks.
Speaker 2 (12:45):
And that was appreciated. Sticks, but I could never get
into them.
Speaker 8 (12:48):
You know, when I was a kid in coming up,
there are all these local bands that were blowing up
and you were like expected to like them. You were
supposed to love cheap Trick and you had to love
Sticks and you had all the stuff and Sticks is fine.
This Yeah, it's fine. Dennis d Young, however, has always
been always bitching about something right. He left this band
(13:08):
early and he's like, they won't let me do what
I want to do. I'm like, bro, what you wanted
to do is mister rabato? All right, So let's calm
down here. The band still continues, the great great Todd
Suckerman behind the drums now for thirty years. But Dennis
de Young is another one of these guys, and again
he's not alone. This to me is not a snapshot
(13:28):
of how his problem. Normally a lot of people have
the problem that he said that it sucks that musicians
have to be incapacitated before they're inducted into the rock
and Roll Hall of Fame. Sticks whatever you think of them,
should be in the rock and Roll Hall. Of course,
then they're not, so you understand what you know. Tommy
Shaw has always been kind of very critical of that
(13:50):
as well. But Dennis d Young has always kind of
been the loud mouth of that band. And again he
hasn't been with six for a long time. I think
Jay Wise, the guy who sings them, making so many
musicians wait until they're either incapacitated.
Speaker 2 (14:05):
Or dead is shameful. He said, he's right, he's putting
something on Facebook.
Speaker 8 (14:08):
Yeah, he is absolutely correct, and he was kind of
responding to Paul Rodgers, you know who Bad Company just
got inducted, and I've until a couple of days before
Paul Rodgers, who is in ill health, Parkinson's or something
like that, and he was gonna come. Simon Kirk, the
drummer for Bad Company, still the only remaining original member there,
(14:29):
and he played the drums with the rock Hall inductions.
Speaker 2 (14:32):
Who a Bad Company?
Speaker 8 (14:34):
Was Chris Robinson singing and and it was one of
these all starting Brian Adams I think was in there too,
but Paul Rodgers last minute had to submit a video
thank you to everyone, and I guess Dennis d Young
kind of picked up on that and he.
Speaker 2 (14:51):
Said, oh my god, sorry, excuse me.
Speaker 8 (14:55):
I don't want to pull the curtain back too far,
but and I hope it's not a hip a violation.
Rob always sneezes when sticks is played, so they do everything.
His eyes water if lady is on the juke bi.
Speaker 2 (15:08):
First sign, get hard and that's it, and here comes
to sneeze every single time.
Speaker 8 (15:14):
The rarest of allergy indicators, by the way, the hard nipples.
Usually it's the sinuses or the eyes getting puffy, it
is the nipples. No pen on the planet take care
of these bad boys. No, that's right, once the turkey's
done for Thanksgiving. But yeah, Dennis de Young is like
the Hall's mission statement about who qualifies was always a
(15:36):
ruse and a joke, concocted to protect their own personal choices. Boy,
people really get poetic when they start railing against the
Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. Now, of course, the
irony in all this is it's the bands that complain
the loudest, who also say the loudest that they don't
care that they're not in the Rock and Roll Hall
of Fame.
Speaker 2 (15:52):
So you certainly can't blame them. I think you have
to say that once you once you go all in
on screw them. They're stupid. They don't know how to
put good people on the rock and roll You kind
of have to say, I don't care if I get in, Yeah,
but I respect the people who when they finally do
get in, they don't care.
Speaker 8 (16:07):
Oh yeah, I'm not going. Dennis de Young is seventy
eight years old, still lives in Chicago.
Speaker 2 (16:14):
I think.
Speaker 8 (16:16):
It's a shame that bad Company had to wait so long,
So it's not even really a complaint on his part
that Styx isn't in there. I don't even know if
he mentioned that, but anybody reading it would go, yes,
Stick should be in there too.
Speaker 11 (16:28):
Well, you just think of all the bands that are
going to go in where all the members are dead
and nobody even knows that they ever made it.
Speaker 2 (16:35):
That's the thing for me, that's like it. That's the
tragedy in all of it. All these bands that are
going to get they're all going to get in. Someday
Styx will go in. Whether any of them are alive
when it happens, who knows. So you spend all that
time wondering, like, man, why am I always a bridesmaid? Well?
How about the Foreigner Lenyard Skinnered tour? Yeah?
Speaker 8 (16:58):
Right, they just announced Skinnered and Foreigner are embarking on
a co headlining tour. If you like either of those band,
it's great news. It's called Double Trouble Double Vision. Right
next summer, they're gonna do a bunch of cities. Except
neither band has any original members. I mean, you have
people in there that have been in those bands for
a long time, but no original members, and they both
(17:19):
did farewell tours two or three years ago. So you're
kind of now in this rock and roll limbo where
you know they both did farewell tours. Now, of course
I'm gonna have Motley Crue tickets all week for you
as well. Speaking of farewell tours, those guys famously went
on one.
Speaker 2 (17:36):
Years ago and oh boy, they're still around. They blew
everything up. It's over. We're gonna sign it in blood,
sign it blood, whatever, gonna go out again.
Speaker 8 (17:45):
A Motley Crue an especially egregious example, because these guys
were sitting around at home for about a year and
a half.
Speaker 2 (17:50):
Didn't take them long at all.
Speaker 8 (17:51):
It's not like after twenty five years of silence the
return of Motley Crue that was like, hey, eighteen months.
Speaker 2 (17:58):
These guys are all bored, and that was eighteen months.
Speaker 11 (18:00):
That means they probably started having conversations like less than
a year in like, I don't know, how long can
you guys do this? I know we made a big
deal out of like coming off the road and we're
done and we're breaking up. I mean, we weren't serious
where we can unbelievably cynical. I know, because I think
the fans want to think, Oh my god, this is it.
(18:22):
Look at the lengths to which these guys are going
to put up across the t's dot the eyes right in.
Oh negative, Hey, we ain't going out there anymore. This
is your last chance to see us.
Speaker 8 (18:32):
And of course everybody goes and buys tickets, But somewhere
in the band's brain they go, this is a cash grab.
And in a couple of years that we change our
minds and there's always some press. Really, once we realized
we missed the fans so much or whatever. I mean, listen,
it's your life, it's your career. You do whatever you
want to do. But and Kiss set the bar for that.
Kiss did twenty five Goodbye tours? I mean, right, But
(18:55):
who thinks they're not gonna miss it? I understand being
in the moment. We had Wolfe van Halen in here yesterday,
couldn't have been nicer in town for a couple of
days early. They're playing the Agora tonight, his band Mammoth,
Miles Kennedy, they're playing the Agora tonight, and he came
in the top of the show yesterday and we were
just kind of chatting and he was talking about life
on the bus.
Speaker 2 (19:15):
Right, Yeah, you're traveling everywhere.
Speaker 8 (19:16):
You're so used to life on the bus, and when
you're in the moment, going town to town, up and
down the dial, you're probably thinking it'll be nice to
be home wherever that is. You know, he's talking about
his mom and wife coming out to meet him for
Thanksgiving wherever they are, right, you might end up having
Thanksgiving dinner in Charlotte who knows, but who doesn't think
(19:39):
they're going to miss it. When you're in it, you go, oh,
I can't wait to get off the road, But you
give it two weeks.
Speaker 2 (19:45):
You know.
Speaker 8 (19:45):
I had Bruce Dickinson on a couple of months ago
for the Metal Show to do a metal show called
two Hours at Midnight, And I had Bruce Dickinson on
and I said, are you a guy who gets antsy
when you're home? Because he lives in England, right, But
he's also a pilot, and he's got a solo band,
and he's got Iron Maiden and all this kind of stuff.
So are you a guy who gets antsy at home?
And he goes, I'm never home long enough to get antsy, right,
(20:07):
And that to me was a very honest answer. He's like,
I'm a guy that likes to go out and do stuff.
He's a married guy.
Speaker 2 (20:12):
I think so.
Speaker 8 (20:14):
I'm just always curious why these bands don't have the
foresight to go, boy, I'm really going to miss this.
I'm really going to miss this. There's a reason I've
done it this long.
Speaker 2 (20:23):
I felt like such a biblical douchebag talking to him
before we went on yesterday. Who woolfy Wolfy?
Speaker 11 (20:29):
Well, cause we're talking to him uncle Pat going back
and forth, and I said, we were talking about his
trip to the Hall of Fame.
Speaker 2 (20:35):
He's like, yeah, we came in yesterday, tray. He's like,
traffic was a nightmare.
Speaker 11 (20:38):
He's like, our uber tried to drop us off and
the guy's like, you know, he's another guy was getting
into the car so they wanted us to get out.
And I'm sitting there and I go, oh, he said
he did the rock call. I said, pretty cool, right,
He's like yeah, and I go been there before? And
then I was like, oh that's right. Your dad's Eddie
van Halet.
Speaker 2 (20:58):
No, but that doesn't mean he's been rock and roll
Hall of Fame. He gave me the yeah yo, hey
yeah yeah. He didn't even know what his mom put
on Instagram. Well, that's totally true. My mom puts on
Instagram either. I mean, you know, in all fairness, it's
your mom. If and if, by the way, if you
don't follow Rubb's mom on Instagram, if you haven't seen
her Anti Epstein's screed One for the Age incredible, my
(21:21):
mom my mom gets into it. Man, Yeah she shut o.
No I did.
Speaker 11 (21:24):
I felt so dumb because there's like that whole section
of Eddie guitars, like, of course he's been there.
Speaker 2 (21:32):
I felt like such dick. I understand where you're coming from,
but yeah, you know what I mean. Like, but again,
I guess that's any good conversation.
Speaker 11 (21:41):
You sort of sometimes aren't sitting there thinking about who
you're talking to, right, Like I wasn't like, oh my god,
I'm talking to Wolfy van Ail and we were just
sitting there shooting the breeze wasn't a big one because
he's so laid back and such a nice guy, nice kid,
but clearly like kind of a U feels very protective
about things.
Speaker 2 (21:59):
You know, I think you have to be when you're
him too.
Speaker 8 (22:02):
Well, I agree, and that's why I wasn't gonna sit
here and talk to him about his dad for twenty minutes,
because I'm sure that's what everybody runs up on him with.
Speaker 2 (22:09):

I'm putting together a hardcore side project here in the Vatagin.
Speaker 9 (23:09):
It's called Biblical Douchebag.
Speaker 2 (23:11):
I wasn't where you were a musician.
Speaker 9 (23:12):
Oh yeah, sure I am.
Speaker 2 (23:13):
What do you play?
Speaker 10 (23:14):
Yeah?
Speaker 9 (23:15):
I play the marimba. I played the marimba.
Speaker 2 (23:19):
Yeah.
Speaker 9 (23:21):
We got a guy over there in Cleveland that plays
a skin flute.
Speaker 2 (23:24):
Okay, yeah, I didn't realize that was an instrument for
that there on Facts eight, the biblical douchebags.
Speaker 9 (23:29):
Biblical douchebags. Yeah, so I want to let you know,
and you should make sure you come to see us
next time. I don't think we're gonna tour obviously.
Speaker 2 (23:37):
But you know, just to let you know. How's things
over the Vatican?
Speaker 9 (23:41):
What do you mean how's things over at the Vatican.
Speaker 2 (23:43):
I don't know.
Speaker 9 (23:44):
The whole world's falling apart.
Speaker 2 (23:45):
I'm obviously good at asking bad questions the celebrities, So
I'm just trying to You got half the people over
there saying that Jesus told everybody to punch immigrants in
the face. How do you think I'm doing?
Speaker 9 (23:59):
You got Christian over around saying, yeah, Jesus wanted people
to starve.
Speaker 2 (24:03):
Oh that's what the loads and the fishes.
Speaker 9 (24:05):
It was all about holding the people. Why do you
think it's going over here round?
Speaker 2 (24:09):
I obviously have hit a nerve. I'm sorry. I see
you're county soon. Okay, bye, He sounded pissed. Well, Yeah,
he sounded so pissed.
Speaker 8 (24:21):
He's got the weight of the world on his shoulders.
He's like the cover of the fifty one to fifty album.
Speaker 2 (24:26):
Bro Biblical douchebag. How about that? I'd go see him. Ellen.
I'm Bill from Cleveland.
Speaker 8 (24:34):
I'm out in Madona County today knocking on doors, and
I thought of Rob because I saw a bunch of
ducks quacking at me and running around.
Speaker 2 (24:42):
I hope you guys have a great day. How about that?
That wasn't my house, peopulls.
Speaker 8 (24:46):
People's thoughts turn to you now anytime they see aggressive foul.
Speaker 10 (24:53):
Raw.
Speaker 1 (24:53):
Hey, the quay raw they.
Speaker 2 (25:04):
He said, my neighbors got dugs. Maybe quacking no day,
But I think I had enough maybe.
Speaker 8 (25:11):
By the way, after that first segment, a lot of
people are texting me what they thought were the alternatives
to that old slur. Indian giver.
Speaker 2 (25:20):
Yeah, and they're terrible.
Speaker 8 (25:22):
I mean, you know, nobody's gonna say Native American giver,
No Guardian giver.
Speaker 2 (25:27):
Nobody's gonna say that.
Speaker 11 (25:28):
I guess I didn't even think that that's where that
came from. It was just something you say, like you
sat Indian style.
Speaker 2 (25:35):
When I was a kid, like criss cross apple sauce
giver as when somebody else's is preferre. It makes sense.
Speaker 8 (25:41):
Yeah, yeah, Native American bestower. Well, that implies the giving, but.
Speaker 11 (25:49):
It also suggests you're taking it back again if you're
going with that, Hey, listen, hold on.
Speaker 2 (25:56):
We could sit right here and boss talk outside of
the door. We don't have sound proof. Should I just
invite him in.
Speaker 9 (26:05):
Right?
Speaker 2 (26:05):
No, because then he thinks he's got to do stick.
And No, he's doing that now because he knows he
can hear. He's that's fine. No, we're not. I haven't
even mentioned who you're talking about, that's true. Nope.
Speaker 8 (26:19):
I'm finally getting some things I want around here, right.
I don't want to make any sudden movements.
Speaker 2 (26:24):
Trying to get a squirrel to come over to me. Rob,
I you know what I mean. Yeah, shiny jetty shiny objects.
Oh my god, I got my car estimate this morning.
Oh yeah, fifty. Is it in the range of fixing
(26:45):
or is it?
Speaker 4 (26:46):
No?
Speaker 8 (26:46):
I was talking to the guy and he goes because
it was mostly body. I hit a deer last week.
I was only doing twenty five and this thing came
out of nowhere. And summer assaulted across my hood. So
other than being down to one headlight, it was mostly
body work. And the guy goes yeah. He goes, as
all plastic and only we got to pull this stuff off,
or what I've shifted the whole hood, you know, all
that drivable, nothing operationally wrong with it. And he goes, well,
(27:08):
once we got the hood up, he goes, there were
a couple of things here and there. He's like, the
other headlight was cracked. There was an air conditioning condenser
line that was cracked. So he's like, a couple of
things here. But they submitted to insurance, and I said, well,
I was worried they were going to tot let out
because they said it had so many miles. He goes,
I said, I was hoping to maybe get another year
on this car, and he goes, yeah, at least he
said it would be up to them, obviously. But he's like,
he goes, we got people still driving like, oh, nine fusions.
(27:31):
He goes, you can put a lot of miles on
these cars. So I was glad to hear that.
Speaker 2 (27:36):
So what did you look up what Kelly blue Book
says your cars were?
Speaker 4 (27:39):
Did not?
Speaker 2 (27:39):
Let's do that? No ear is it.
Speaker 8 (27:41):
It's a twenty fifteen, twenty fifty. Yeah, but it's got
two hundred and twenty eight thousand miles on it. So
my only concern is that insurance is going to go
We're not going to do that. We're just going to
tot let out, which again is not the end of
the world. But I really would like to have to
have a couple more years with this car, because if
I can put the miles on it and I've been
taken real good care of it, how many miles? What
(28:01):
two hundred and twenty eight thousand?
Speaker 2 (28:07):
What's that? Boss? Alan Styx actually played at my high
school prom. Oh?
Speaker 8 (28:12):
Wow, Palatine High School, nineteen seventy four. That's suburban Chicago. Wow,
all right, nineteen seventy four. Hello, we're sticks. Hopefully someday
we'll be in the rock and Roll Hall of Fame.
And everybody starts laughing at them. They're like, what's the
rock and roll hall? But what it's nineteen seventy four,
what's the rock and roll Hall of Fame? It's real,
(28:37):
So we'll see. He's like, I'll you know, they work
directly with insurance. He goes, we'll see what they say
and you know if if they want to do it,
we'll do it. I was like, okay, but that was
about what I thought he was going to tell me too.
I would have been surprised had it been less than
that Kelly Blue Book has it at like five grand.
I'm not like forty nine.
Speaker 2 (28:57):
To fifty two.
Speaker 8 (28:57):
That's what I was worried about. They're going to go now, well,
I mean not necessarily though I don't know. I don't
know how those things work. I've never had to file
an insurance claim in my life.
Speaker 11 (29:07):
If you go on the very good side right of
value of the car, if you take it to very
good fifty seven is the high.
Speaker 8 (29:14):
I mean, it would have no trade in value at
the end of it still, of course, But I'm like,
I really I like this car. I would like to
drive it another You know, I put way fewer miles
on it than I used to because when my kids
were younger, I was still going back and forth to
Michigan all the time. And you know, they're in their
early twenties now they're both adults, so I don't make
(29:35):
that trip as often anymore. So I I know that
I could get another a couple of years on this car.
If you know I play my cards right, But.
Speaker 2 (29:45):
We have a used car? What I was going to
ask if we had a used car expert online one
but they hung up. Who was that? Hey, I'm getting
Dick from Dayton. I have no idea. I can't tell.
I just saw the linery. Yes, comes with that horn.
Hey how about Bernie Koshar? Yeah? How about him? Good
(30:12):
for him? You think you'll be good enough to start
for the team again next year by the Allen Cox
Show on one hundred point seven called the Alan Cox Show.
And this is when the Antichrist is going to reveal himself.
He lives among the feasts and heats grass.
Speaker 4 (30:33):
Two one six five seven eight one double oh seven
or one eight hundred three four eighty one double oh seven.
Speaker 2 (30:43):
Okay, you don't stop, you don't stop, you don't stop.
Speaker 9 (30:50):
I think.
Speaker 6 (31:00):
It likely.
Speaker 2 (31:06):
I heard this in a minute. It's one of my favorites.
Speaker 8 (31:08):
Fell Communication. Yeah, yes, it is Misty boys, Mario Clex.
Speaker 2 (31:18):
I'm ready to go because theos a little man.
Speaker 12 (31:20):
They called him.
Speaker 2 (31:22):
Sabotage on ill Communication. It was Okay, did you watch Jeopardy?
No I didn't. I'm two behind. Actually I have him
on my uh D v R.
Speaker 8 (31:32):
There was a b c's answer last night. They had
a category called never have I Ever? And I'm always
flummixed by what people don't know. You know, I love
Jeopardy because that's the game show where you can't just
you can't slop your way through it, right, I mean,
Wheel of Fortune, you can do a lot less work
and make a lot more money.
Speaker 2 (31:54):
But Jeopardy, you gotta be smart to be on that show.
Speaker 8 (31:57):
That's why it's always amazing to me when you'll get
you know, you'll have people on that show who completely
crap the bed. Now you don't know what the categories
are going to be, so it just might not be
your night. But you've gotten through batteries of warm up
tests to get on to Jeopardy and then you crap
the bed.
Speaker 2 (32:13):
So that's I mean, you got on.
Speaker 8 (32:15):
The guy that he currently got running the table is
this kid who is like a five time champ. He's
up like one hundred and sixty grand or something, and
he's just a machine. But it's interesting to me the
things that they don't know. You know, you'll have three
people who are a little bit younger. I mean, you know,
they look like maybe millennials, or something, maybe mid thirties.
And you know, these people will run the table on
(32:37):
seventeenth century Spanish literature, but then you ask them pop
culture questions and they don't know all three of them.
Speaker 2 (32:44):
Whift on a Beastie Boys answered, never have I ever six.
Speaker 7 (32:49):
Never have I ever wrapped like this group? Well, you can't,
you won't and you don't stop. Mike Dee, come and
rock the sure shot.
Speaker 2 (32:56):
That's a lie. I one hundred percent have nobody. Oh no, Mike,
the you have the Beastie Boys. Wow, Ken Daffy Duck
Jennings over there, the Beeftie Boys.
Speaker 11 (33:09):
Well wait a minute, though, how old are is this
normal age jeopardy or is this like teen Jeopardy?
Speaker 8 (33:14):
It's not teen jeopardy, That's what I'm saying. These are
the three contestants. They were probably millennials. They were probably
like early mid thirties, because two questions later, the girl
who looked like she was nineteen, it was an answer
about the movie Network, which was from nineteen seventy six,
and she nailed it. So it's always interesting to me
what people do and don't know. Right, Well, how do
(33:35):
you know not one not one of those three? Well,
that's what I mean. But then again, they'll know really
esoteric stuff, because again these are really smart people getting
jeopardy and so really esoteric stuff they'll know. But like
things that we would consider to be more pop culture
popular culture knowledge.
Speaker 2 (33:55):
They don't know. It makes me feel so good all
the time, too, well, it makes me feel old. I'll
say that.
Speaker 8 (33:59):
Boy, when they've had questions or answers on there before
that people have whiffed. And I always think of the
actor when they show their face and there's a category
this actor one blah blah blah and they show their face. Yeah,
you have like a visual clue and everybody whiffs on it.
It's gonna make you feel good when you're that person, like, Okay,
nobody knows who I am.
Speaker 11 (34:17):
I'll just there and watch it, you know what I mean.
They get it wrong and I get it right. Stupid asses. Yeah,
and of course that's the one question I got right
for the entire round.
Speaker 8 (34:24):
But these people were not too old or too young
to have known the Beastie Boys. I was like, really
didn't get it.
Speaker 11 (34:34):
You know what, I'm due for a deep Beastie Boys
dive once a year usually, and then I'll sit with
it for quite a while.
Speaker 2 (34:42):
Yeah. I loved the Beastie Boys.
Speaker 8 (34:47):
Yeah, I liked them when I heard them, but they
were never I wasn't like a rap fan and license
was my thing. But I liked that they were musicians.
That was the part that I was That eighty six
which one License to Ill? Yeah, I think so, right,
Rick Rubin Licensed to Ill nineteen eighty six.
Speaker 2 (35:07):
That there you go.
Speaker 11 (35:08):
I that was probably the first record I owned, like
of my own. I was seven, was Licensed to Ill,
License to Ill? Yeah, And I listened to that until
I wore holes in that vinyl. It was at that
To this day, it's one of my favorite albums.
Speaker 8 (35:25):
So yeah, they they whiffed last night on the Beastie Boys,
Question Your Cavaliers, No whiff and last night won eighteen
o one oh six with the Milwaukee Bucks here at
home off tonight back tomorrow hosting the Houston Rockets.
Speaker 2 (35:40):
That's Hakeem Olajahwan. I don't think so, and I'm sorry,
I don't think he's there currently, might be hurt. Maybe
he's out with a injury. Oh you think he's hurt. Yeah,
maybe maybe there's there's a reason he's not there. I'm
not quite sure what it is. All right, don't they
have Katie? Isn't he with the Rockets?
Speaker 13 (35:57):
Uh?
Speaker 8 (35:58):
He bounced around, but I thought he was a I
know they have Fred van Vliet, formerly of the Toronto Raptors.
Speaker 11 (36:04):
Well, good news is that keem Olaja want is alive. Hey,
technically he could play for them, so he may may
be back from his injury all right since two thousand
and two.
Speaker 2 (36:15):
Wow, he was on IR for a long time. He's
been out for a while.
Speaker 13 (36:19):
Wow.
Speaker 11 (36:19):
Yeah, okay, I think they said it was like a
twenty three year plan when they kept his locker and
everything everything.
Speaker 2 (36:24):
Yeah, he's stuff, isn't it? And he stayed conditioned. Yeah.
Speaker 5 (36:28):
Wow.
Speaker 8 (36:29):
See that's dedication. That's what the That's what these damn
kids are missing.
Speaker 12 (36:33):
Rob.
Speaker 11 (36:33):
Yeah, it says right here, a year ahead of schedule.
They originally said twenty four years he would be on
the ie. Oh good, he's back a year ahead of sign.
Speaker 8 (36:41):
Well anyway, we'll see him back out the hard wood
Tomorrowloight the Rocket Arena tomorrow night. Seven o'clock Rockets calves

Speaker 2 (36:58):
We gave away tickets for that game. Land Week Calves Clippers.
I like to go to that game.
Speaker 8 (37:06):
Friend of mine sings the anthem for the Clippers when
they're in when they're in LA home games and such.
If you listen to us on iHeartRadio, tell me where
you do it. I heard from Anthony, who listens in Eugene, Oregon.
He was kind enough to update me on his relocation.
He's doing some graduate work now in Bloomington, Indiana. Sasha
(37:27):
is in Portland, Oregon. Don listens in Rowlitt, Texas. Nick
is in San Francisco. Souden fronts Hello, soun friends, Shishkole,
my favorite Shitty Brett is in Grand Rapids, Michigan. You

Speaker 13 (37:43):
Voys Johnny and Cleveland Heights over here. I love you guys,
but you both watch way too much t I know,
Alan you say you watch like an hour day or whatever.
You know, way too much.
Speaker 2 (37:58):
Guys.
Speaker 13 (37:58):
Get outside. I know it's cold, Go do something yolo
or something you know. All right, the rest of the week,
better love What.
Speaker 2 (38:08):
Is he talking?
Speaker 8 (38:08):
About way too much television, Watson, I watch an hour
a night, Bro, I watched Jeopardy and I watch an
hour a night of television. What does he mean watch
too much? Because we always talk about it a lot. Yeah,
but there's a lot of new shows. I mean it
takes me a month to watch, you know, a couple
episodes of some new show.
Speaker 11 (38:27):
Oh, because I said, I said, I sat and watched
the entire Death by Lightning.
Speaker 2 (38:32):
I watched it from start to finish.
Speaker 11 (38:34):
Yeah, because you're at home and i've but on the weekend,
never done that, So that might maybe because I watched it.
Maybe he didn't catch the part where I said I
never watched television like that, Like, I'm good for a
half an hour to an hour show a night, and
then I'm asleep on the couch.
Speaker 8 (38:48):
And by the way, answered your own questions, like forty degrees?
What am I missing outside in Ohio? Well, I like
being outside, but I'm not hanging around outside when it's
forty two degrees. It was like flurries this morning, and
then the sun came out.
Speaker 2 (39:03):
I'm like, all right, I'm getting to realize who am
I trying to impress?
Speaker 11 (39:06):
It's never the right temperature here. That's one thing I'm realizing.
It's either way too goddamn hot or ice cold. Like
I feel like three days all year I've been like,
oh it's nice out.
Speaker 6 (39:20):
Ah.
Speaker 2 (39:21):
Yeah, I feel like the weather is at extremes now everywhere.
Speaker 11 (39:26):
Well, fall is gone, like we didn't have a fall,
autumn whatever, right, Like it just it went from summer
and then we had that week where it was like
seven six seven, and then it was like eighty again,
and then it's like, oh, yeah.
Speaker 8 (39:42):
This is it.
Speaker 2 (39:42):
Now it's winter. We're gonna get snow.
Speaker 10 (39:44):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (39:46):
Like even my leaves I still I still have trees
full of leaves. Yeah, trees full of leaves. It's one
of my favorite poems.
Speaker 8 (39:57):
Alan, you have an eerie similarity to the guy in
Indiana who shot the cleaning lady who was at the
wrong house. That's what this guy thinks. I look like
that guy right there. Wait hold on, let me find
you a better photo. It's always interesting to me, but
you look exactly like this guy, do I That's what
I look like to you, Not that you're I mean,
(40:18):
obviously no, but he sees themselves how they actually look.
Speaker 2 (40:21):
So it's completely but it is interesting to me of
the things that people will come up with. Yeah, someone
sent me a DM earlier of a guy wrestling a crocodile.
Crocodile walks all over him, and he says, when you
get older and gain back a decent amount of weight,
you'll look identical to this guy.
Speaker 8 (40:39):
Well, you just can't win, can't when you when you
gained you know, if you lost a considerable amount of weight,
you look like Kevin Sevanski.
Speaker 2 (40:46):
You know, if you gained some weight back, you'd look
like X, Y and Z.
Speaker 11 (40:50):
Yeah, that's right. Yeah, and I'm not doing that. Well,
not anytime soon. I'm sure I will somedayd Now. No,
so he says, you look like which guy? The guy
who just shot through the door. The cleaning lady showed
up at the wrong house, and this guy just fired
through his door. Because apparently people are scared for their
lives when the cleaning lady shows up. This guy there,
(41:10):
there's his uh mugshot, a guy named Kurt Anderson.
Speaker 2 (41:14):
Apparently I look like that guy.
Speaker 8 (41:16):
Listen, there's worse people to look like, I guess, but
it is always interesting to me the perspective people come from. Hey, listen,
everybody else is calling me a grandma Rob That's okay.
Speaker 2 (41:27):
We got eaten a live in that photo I posted,
Oh did we really? Oh yeah, well with his grandparents.
Oh yeah, yeah, yeah, you said it yesterday. Well so
he texted it. I didn't look at comments on that.
That looks like you, by the way, Well again I
would say that. But it's interesting what people see you, don't.
You know, you don't see yourself the way that other
people see you. Obviously, Oh I see you. Oh I
(41:49):
don't get you right now? Hey, how you doing? You
don't look like that.
Speaker 8 (41:53):
And I got to hold the flag for the Browns
game on Sunday, slam some RC coal before hand. I
couldn't have been more prepared, with the taste of the
Crown fueling me. Of course, Royal Crown cola, the official
cola of the Cleveland Browns.
Speaker 2 (42:12):
So it was like one of those field length flags.
Is that what it was that they do? I don't know,
like the hands everybody moves it.
Speaker 8 (42:17):
And I'm reading what they wrote. I didn't even know
that was a thing. What's that they held the flag
for the Browns game? They mean the American flag, That's
what I'm thinking about.
Speaker 11 (42:27):
They spread it out and yeah there's one like that's
the field length and there's one hundred people that are
on it ice and they move their arms up and down,
so it you know, walls.
Speaker 8 (42:35):
Like in kindergarten where you get underneath the multi colored
parashue parish on the top of it.
Speaker 2 (42:40):
Yeah, wet and sloppy.
Speaker 8 (42:45):
That's what's going on out there today. Yeah, well, listen
for people who do watch a lot of television. Gatorade
is joining up with another company and they're looking for
people to become what they're calling an armchair coach, and
they're going to pay hate somebody two thousand dollars to
yell at their television. I mean, you watch a game
from home, you comment, you celebrate in your rant about
(43:09):
your favorite team, and you get paid two thousand dollars.
Speaker 2 (43:12):
Company called Roto.
Speaker 8 (43:14):
Grinders that sounds made up, call bad plays, celebrate with
a gallon of Gatorade, and get two thousand dollars in
the process. Two grand a whistle, a foam finger, rob,
and a gallon of gatorade to pour.
Speaker 2 (43:30):
On your own head. I don't hate any of this.
Speaker 8 (43:34):
You gotta submit a piece of video two minutes max
of you Rob watching a football game.
Speaker 2 (43:40):
Okay.
Speaker 8 (43:41):
It's got to be you're you're at home or wherever,
and you're watching a football game, okay, and you're yelling
at the television and you're calling plays.
Speaker 2 (43:52):
I have to assume you'd be watching a Patriots game.
Speaker 8 (43:56):
And you're celebrating the touchdowns and you're breaking down the
and then you upload your video.
Speaker 2 (44:02):
You put it on YouTube or TikTok or something. Yeah. See,
I don't audition for things out. This is what I'm saying.
If you want me, you know where to get me.
This is what I'm saying.
Speaker 8 (44:12):
I don't toot my own horn very often, but every
so every so often, you know, I'll have somebody will
reach out to me professionally and say, hey, we'd really
like you to I go. I don't audition. No, everything
you need to know about my show, go online and
listen to Oh you want to hear a rob Rant,
turn your radio on.
Speaker 2 (44:32):
There you go.
Speaker 8 (44:33):
Yeah, there's your there's your Rob Rant. So be the
the official armchair coach. That's what they're looking to do.
Speaker 2 (44:42):
Is a problem with the way I'm coaching?
Speaker 5 (44:44):
No, no, no, it's just a well, like I was
yelling earlier, seems like anyone would half a brain could
coach better than you.
Speaker 2 (44:53):
Half a brain. Huh, well you know what, it sounds
like you just volunteered me, but you were doing so
that's a great job. Oh Homer hoisted with your own petard.
Oh how about that.
Speaker 8 (45:10):
The Oxford English I'm sorry, the Cambridge Dictionary. You know
they're always adding new words. The Cambridge Dictionary has added
their word of the year. But it's not a brand
new word. Uh, it is sixty nine years old.
Speaker 2 (45:23):
Rock nice.
Speaker 8 (45:29):
The word parasocial, which we've used more and more. It's
much more mainstream now, word parasocial on which they use
when they talk about people who have like an unhealthy
attachment to people they don't know, like celebrities and stuff. Right, yeah,
Cambridge Dictionary has marked parasocial is their word of the year.
Speaker 2 (45:48):
It feels like they do this word of the year
thing five times a year.
Speaker 8 (45:51):
Well, here's the thing is that there are so many
dictionary companies. Now there's like dictionary dot Com, and then
there's Oxford English Dictionary, there's the CA Okay, so that's
how I think it is, is it? But you're right,
every couple of weeks we got some new friggin ward
of the year.
Speaker 11 (46:07):
Parasocial is a good one because that affects a lot
of people in a lot of different ways.
Speaker 8 (46:14):
The word itself was coined in nineteen fifty six involving
or relating to a connection between themselves and a famous
person that they do not know. I have to think
that in the fifties, you know, those are the early
days of television, so they were probably like, you know,
do you have an unusual relationship with someone you've heard
on the radio, You're a parasocial You you are experiencing
(46:40):
a parasocial relationship, or you know, a character in a book. Maybe,
But I think modern times you think of Swifties. I mean,
when you think about a parasocial relationship, what immediately springs
to mind probably Taylor Swift fans.
Speaker 2 (46:57):
Really, see I don't I.
Speaker 8 (46:59):
Mean see, she to me is like the alpha of
a public figure with a rabid fan base.
Speaker 2 (47:07):
Yeah. But see, I think that that goes beyond that.
Speaker 11 (47:09):
I think that you could say, Donald Trump would come
to my mind before anybody else because his fans are
so passionate about him, do you know what I mean?
I think that that almost goes further than that Taylor
Swift connection. Yeah, the Taylor Swift thing.
Speaker 2 (47:23):
I agree with you, but I think if you identify
as Maga or you are ultra connected to everything Donald
Trump is doing, yeah, that's a whole different connection point.
Speaker 8 (47:36):
Yeah, listen, I guess you can't really argue that point.
I just think of it in terms of the Swifties
and Taylor Swift. You know, they attached themselves to the
art she is providing for them, or as the Maga
people just found a guy who made it okay for
(47:56):
them to be the a holes they had already been,
or they didn't have to hide it anymore.
Speaker 11 (48:02):
I think the bigger difference though, is that not everybody
who is a Swiftie is going to go out and
wear Taylor Swift's hat, because you know what I mean. Like,
that's where I think there's a different obsession on the
on the Trump side of things than there is with Taylor's.
That was just the first thing that popped into my head.
Speaker 2 (48:22):
Taylor Swift and Donald Trump near the Twain shall meet,
so make America swift again. Also, we're gonna see this.
I have a feeling that you're going to see this.
Speaker 8 (48:35):
Going to hyper speed with AI right, there's more and
more people this is my AI girlfriend. You have an
entire generation you know of in cells that can't get
it together, who are gonna have AI girlfriends? And again
there's women with AI boyfriends too, people who are using
chat GPT as their therapist.
Speaker 2 (48:57):
I mean that's a parasocial relationship. I really like.
Speaker 8 (49:02):
AI slop h Ai hi Ai slop all over the place. Yeah,
so parasocial which have been around a long long time.
As I said, Rob sixty nine.
Speaker 2 (49:16):
Years, guys noise, if it had only been two years Newer.
Speaker 1 (49:28):
Six seven The Allen Cox Show on one hundred sevens.
Speaker 2 (49:37):
Of course he stays.
Speaker 4 (49:38):
Calm when someone steals his stuff from.
Speaker 2 (49:41):
The company fridge. He needs that energy for when he
poops in their gas tank. Allen Cox on one hundred
point seven.
Speaker 14 (49:52):
WMMS yours col de Ice, you will need to sacrifice.
Speaker 8 (50:17):
We were talking about Foreigner before they announced they're doing
a summer tour with Leonard SKINNERD Skinner's on the Rock Hall.
Speaker 2 (50:24):
Either are they I think that Foreigner just got in? Ah,
have they really? I think I would imagine Leonard Skinner.
I mean, if you were to ask me, I would
think I'm gonna say, yes, they are. They have to
be Leonard skinnerd in the Rock Hall, yes, twenty ten.
Speaker 11 (50:40):
Yeah, they that's one of those. I can see them
touring without any original members because starting eighty five percent
of them died in the plane.
Speaker 2 (50:49):
Crash two thousand and six, so they've been in for
a minute.
Speaker 8 (50:55):
They were inducted by Kid Rock into the Rock and
Roll Hall of Anyway, we were talking before Foreigner and
Leonard Skinner were going on the road, despite both bands
having already done farewell tours and neither band having any
original members.
Speaker 2 (51:13):
But if you like either of those bands, you can
go see him here. You're going to a tribute show.
I mean, it's it's fine, you're not you know, it's
it's a good time. It's just not the band. Really, Yeah,
I want to see a version of it.
Speaker 8 (51:29):
I was reading about a guy who, well, people have thoughts.
Even though it's this guy's private life, people have thoughts.
One of these guys who bought into the cryo scam.
Not crypto, that's a different scam. A guy who cryogenically
froze his wife in the hopes of bringing her back
(51:50):
when lung cancer was cured is in a bit of
a pickle because he's got himself a new girl. So
it's uh, it was just a few years ago a
guy in his late fifties made the decision to freeze
his wife's body.
Speaker 2 (52:08):
And so that she could be potentially revived.
Speaker 8 (52:10):
It is amazing to me the money people will spend
on that, given that there has been no payoff whatsoever
in that. You know, your one power outage away from
your loved one, you know, melting through the bottom of
the and he's got himself a new girl. The woman's
(52:35):
body is still being stored minus three hundred and twenty
degrees fahrenheit.
Speaker 2 (52:40):
Her unit has the sexy name Container number one. She
has a unit.
Speaker 8 (52:45):
Yeah, this is in over in China, and this guy
goes and regularly checks the storage tanks, goes and visits
his wife's storage tank. I mean, yeah, I still don't
understand that because conceivably you would potentially die before anything
(53:06):
was found.
Speaker 2 (53:06):
And then anyway, so you know, this guy was mentioning
about how he has a new girl. His wife was
diagnosed with terminal lung cancer in twenty seventeen and he
had her preserved. She is in stable condition, whatever that means.
Speaker 8 (53:29):
They said that her cellular structure has not undergone any
abnormal fluctuations, which reminds me I saw John Carpenter's working
on a sequel to the thing.
Speaker 2 (53:37):
It's pretty exciting.
Speaker 8 (53:39):
But she's been obviously clinically declared dead, and obviously he's
taken all kinds of heat from people because he's not
going to wait for her to come back.
Speaker 2 (53:49):
He's got a new girl.
Speaker 12 (53:51):
So what do you do?
Speaker 2 (53:51):
Do you unplug her? Oh? I mean you're gonna be
already dead. I mean, which you're gonna pay for the thing?
I mean, what do you do?
Speaker 15 (54:02):
You go?
Speaker 2 (54:02):
Well, I got this new girl. Ah, and uh, I
think he got sick maybe, and so he sounds like
he just needed a lady, you know, to help take
care of him. He was suffering from an extreme case
of gout and he could die from that.
Speaker 8 (54:20):
I don't know, he's not dead, but like, well, I
was gonna say, like gout, Jesus, that used to be
the rich man's disease, right, Yeah, they called gout the
rich man's disease because you got it from eating all
of these foods that were not largely available to super
rich food Yeah, the hoi POLLOI I think it's just
arthritis though, isn't.
Speaker 2 (54:41):
It isn't gout arthritis is it? I thought it was.
Speaker 11 (54:44):
But it's like in specific, very like in your foot
joint or that's what I mean, like you joints awful pain.
Speaker 2 (54:51):
It's painful too. I mean, I guess if it's extreme arthritis,
it would. But yeah, my cousin had it. We used
to make fun of them all the time because it
wouldn't stop.
Speaker 8 (54:59):
It's a rick acid thing, it is, But it's also
seems entirely avoidable, you know, not everything's made him right?
Speaker 2 (55:07):
What was he drinking? Like two laters of pepsi and
he got fat?
Speaker 11 (55:10):
He was in the navy forever and then he got
fat and just didn't take care of himself and then
he got gout so like he would just sit there
with his foot his shoe.
Speaker 2 (55:18):
Oh no, how do you get rid of gout? You
just show up your diet or I don't.
Speaker 11 (55:22):
Know, because it's like crystals that develop right like sharp.
But it feels like you're getting stabbed in the foot ouch.
Speaker 2 (55:28):
That his was in the food. You know, you can
get into other places, but yeah, I think you just
like I think, just don't be stupid with what you
eat and it'll go away.
Speaker 8 (55:38):
So it's it's not just in the foot. I thought
it was like ankles or something, but it's I guess not.
Speaker 2 (55:43):
His was in his foot. Yeah, oh so funny. You
guys laughed at him all the time because he was
like forty five, were like, dude, you're way too young
to be walking around. Just stop eating. Stop eating, like,
stop eating fruit roll ups, you fat pig, and you
won't have these problems, right, And it's all he did.
He would just he had sweet tooth and he drank,
(56:05):
so it was like all these I think he ate
steak like four times a day, Like those are the
things that'll get you, so we would just make fun
of them. Well, and there's a lot of dudes.
Speaker 8 (56:13):
Obviously exercise will mitigate it too, but there's a lot
of dudes that are trying to do like caveman diets
and stuff like that. So like I just eat steak
and butter, Like I wouldn't want to do that, just
just even from like a forget a health approach. I
wouldn't want to sit around choking down steak and butter
all day long.
Speaker 11 (56:31):
I remember going to I've talked about this place before,
the Nordic Lodge, to buffet in Rhode Island, Charlestown, Rhode Island,
and it's all lobsters and like it's an insane buffet.
Speaker 2 (56:42):
And you would see people at this place taking their
shoes off because they were like undoing their belts.
Speaker 11 (56:50):
Like the butter would come out of they had taps,
like taps of fresh drawn butter. So they would get
like five lobsters and they would go with this tub
of butter and they're like, oh, yeah, they got gonna
act up. So I'm just gonna, you know, take my
shoes off ahead of time.
Speaker 2 (57:03):
People just oh, it hurts, but it's well worth it. Yeahs.
My father in law is a man of sizable carriage.
Does he get the gout?
Speaker 8 (57:15):
Doesn't have the gout? But the story that is still
told is one of the first times I met him.
When my wife and I were dating. We went up
to the Up. He's a gambler and he wins a lot,
so he's not some guy who like doesn't know what
he's doing, right, So it's always playing in tournaments and
things like that. One of the first things we all
(57:35):
did together was we went up to a casino in
the Up. We went up to Saint Ignace in the
Upper Peninsula of Michigan, and they had this massive buffet,
and my wife is like, I thought, right there, you
were gonna break up with me because we were sitting
at this table and her father had just come back
from the buffet and he had a giant bowl of
(57:55):
drawn butter, and he had a massive plate of crab legs,
and it proceeded to surgically remove all the crab from
those legs and pour it into the giant bowl of
melted butter and eat all of that. Oh boy, like
it was a stew and just I was fascinated by
the spectacle of it. And I was like, oh my god,
(58:20):
it was more respect than anything else. Now to me,
that's nothing. It would ever even occur to me to
eat his drawn butter and a giant but pant butter
he killed it. I was like, no, I was impressed,
impressed because it was like it was no thing. I
was like, wow, She's like, yeah, that's how my did eats.
I was like, wow, that's I mean, that's it was
(58:42):
intense amazing. Does he still eat that way?
Speaker 13 (58:45):
No?
Speaker 2 (58:45):
No, no, I was going for a long time. Oh,
it's like fifteen years ago.
Speaker 8 (58:49):
But I mean it's you know, and he's had a
couple of heart surgery since, but he takes much better
care of himself now than I think he will, you know,
for a long time. If you're living that way and
nothing's kicking you in the ass, you're.
Speaker 2 (59:01):
Like, hey, man, I'm fine. Yeah, I'm fine. You're slim
pickings riding the rocket all the way down. I wish
red meat wasn't as bad for you in massive doses
as it is, because I could probably eat steak and
stuff every day.
Speaker 8 (59:14):
I don't know what's considered massive doses. Like I like
red meat, no, I know, but if you eat it
every day, that's not a good thing.
Speaker 2 (59:21):
You know, it's not good for you to eat.
Speaker 8 (59:23):
Well, it depends on how much you eat, right, Like
if you had a six ounce fil A every day.
Speaker 2 (59:28):
Yeah, I don't know if that's good for you. Really.
I don't know if your plate is like three quarters
of vegetables.
Speaker 8 (59:36):
Yeah, Like if I go out and have a steak,
I'm not getting the forty eight ounce Porterhouse and watching
it down with DRAMBOUI you know what I mean. Like
I'm getting a six ounce fil A, maybe a little
blue cheese on the top and the rest of its vegetables.
Speaker 2 (59:48):
And so if I were going to eat that every day,
maybe not awesome, but I don't know.
Speaker 11 (59:55):
Yeah, it's linked to heart disease, stroke, type two diabetes,
and certain types of cancer if you eat too much
much red meat, all right, aim to consume no more
than eighteen ounces of cooked red meat per week. Eighteen
so I can only have three six ounce fil as
per week. Yeah, so that's not terrible. I guess if
you do it that way, you're fine. I usually see
(01:00:17):
I would go for the eight ounce fil a. You
would go for the six six Yeah.
Speaker 8 (01:00:25):
Brian Listens in Fort Myers, Florida, Allen, gout comes from
your diet if you drink a lot of alcohol and tea,
is what I was told. I just went through it.
Alcohol and tea, I mean a lot of tea. They're
probably multi I do too. They are probably multiple ways
you can get it. But Alan, I'm thirty two and
I randomly get gout.
Speaker 2 (01:00:43):
Well, see that's not funny. Rob is Rob is an ass.
It's not funny. No, see, it's not getting it randomly
is not funny. Get worked himself into it, right, he
ate himself into it or when you're that, like when
you do that to yourself, and then you continue to
do that and you can't do anything at a wedding
(01:01:03):
and have to remove your shoes because you want to
keep drinking and eating like a pig at the event. Yeah,
that's on you.
Speaker 8 (01:01:08):
Yeah, but this person says mine is from drinking and
poor diet. I'm like, well, that's not randomly getting out then, yeah,
then that is funny and it's on you, right, And
if you sit there like my cousin does and plan
for it, I'm gonna go ahead and take my shoe
off because I had too many beers at this wedding.
Speaker 2 (01:01:25):
Okay, idiot, Yeah, enjoy that limb Allen.
Speaker 8 (01:01:30):
That sounds absolutely delicious. Branch out from your lettuce smoothies.
Speaker 2 (01:01:35):
I don't know what to tell you. I ain't gonna
cack over at seventy five years old.
Speaker 11 (01:01:40):
Parma man in the chat says, butter taps is what
they'll play at Rob's cousin's funeral.
Speaker 2 (01:01:50):
Well done, now, Yeah, we barely knew him, didn't we.
He lived the way he wanted to live, and he
went out in a blaze glory in butter fresh drawn,
smoking hot but drawn butter. Yeah, yeah, Alm.
Speaker 8 (01:02:12):
What would it sound like if a doctor diagnosed you
with gout in the nineteen twenties, Hey, you've.
Speaker 2 (01:02:17):
Got gout, large amounts of uric acid. Your uric acid
is built up lay off the red meat and alcohol
like sweets. Do you fatty stop with a twinki?
Speaker 8 (01:02:29):
Oh no, no, So that's probably what it would sound like,
something like that. Yeah, right, well, let's hope that it.
How is your cousin now? Is he in better shape
or this is it?
Speaker 11 (01:02:48):
I mean I don't talk to him often, but I
mean he's still fat, he's still oh yeah, doesn't take
good care of himself.
Speaker 2 (01:02:53):
Yeah, nice enough guy, uric acid? All right?
Speaker 8 (01:03:00):
Like Robert Erck, the guy who used to play spencer
for Higher I don't think so. No, a different thing, Alan.
I'll go four or five months with no issues, and
then I'll wake up and my gout is just there.
Speaker 2 (01:03:11):
That's why it's not funny. Don't tell me what's not funny.
I know what's fun I know what's from funny. It
sounds painful, and you're probably drinking water all day long
because you're trying to flush.
Speaker 15 (01:03:24):
Ugh.
Speaker 2 (01:03:25):
Yeah, it's like they say, it's.
Speaker 11 (01:03:26):
Like like needles, like needles just digging into that particular
joint that's painful.
Speaker 2 (01:03:31):
Yikes. So again I don't think that that part's funny.
Speaker 11 (01:03:33):
I think it's funny when it's self inflicted because you
don't have any self control, right like the people at
the fresh drawn butter tabs at the Nordic Lotche. I'm
gonna be in pain, so I'm gonna take off my shoes,
undo the velcrow on these shoes and enjoy myself.
Speaker 2 (01:03:51):
Hey, you could always put potatoes in your socks? Could
I always put potatoes in yourself?
Speaker 8 (01:03:55):
It's another one of these dumb home remedies that people
think is like an actual thing.
Speaker 9 (01:04:00):
Oh are you sick?
Speaker 2 (01:04:02):
What slices of potato? And you sock?
Speaker 6 (01:04:04):
What is this?
Speaker 2 (01:04:05):
Fifteen forty? Yeah?
Speaker 8 (01:04:08):
You think the sun is coming to eat you too? Like,
why are people still paying attention to this stuff? You
see it on Facebook and you see you know, TikTok
all the life hacks. Oh, we'll cover your feet in
vacoline and then put socks on.
Speaker 2 (01:04:19):
What I know?
Speaker 8 (01:04:21):
American healthcare is utterly broken. I fully understand that. I
get why people are looking for solutions, but they ain't
solutions slices of raw potato in your socks overnight. What
pardon me, Hey, why don't you get off TikTok for
five seconds? Oh, it draws out the toxins. No, it doesn't.
(01:04:42):
There is absolutely zero scientific evidence that that is anything
more than a folk remedy. Oh but some people you
cannot tell them it doesn't work. They have a placebo
effect or they got something, you know, and they're like.
Speaker 2 (01:04:54):
Oh, yeah, what and what what? You have a sore throat? Oh,
someone's told me should tie a piece of bacon to
a string and swallow it to throat, to coat my throat.
Speaker 8 (01:05:04):
Well, because people go, oh it changes color. Yeah, that
happens with or without the sock. Right, you expose a
potato to oxygen, there's a chemical reaction.
Speaker 2 (01:05:15):
That's not because you put it in your sock overnight.
And like, these aren't new.
Speaker 8 (01:05:20):
These are these things that are debunked over and over
and over again, and they keep making their way around.
Speaker 2 (01:05:28):
I read someplace that you're in cuus acne. Oh I'm
supposed to. That's just from somebody who wanted me to
pee on them. That's all that is. Yeah, doesn't work. Yeah,
I heard that rubbing turns on your forearms. It's better
than tattoo removal. What did you ever I remember the
onions in your underwear. It's like, gee, what is this
(01:05:50):
Netherlands in the sixteenth century? Put butter in your shoes?
Oh good, yes, good for my feet and my glasses
and shoes them all. I'd but yeah, why did you
just drink more water and try to get more sleep?
How about that? That could work?
Speaker 8 (01:06:08):
To go for a walk anyway, those will make the rounds.
Ever so often somebody sent me the the thing. They're like,
you know, oh, people are putting slices of potato in there.
So I'm like, again, this comes around every few years.
It's like there was some huge discovery. Oh hey, durally,
the American Medical Association determined it actually does work.
Speaker 11 (01:06:29):
No, I do remember there being one when I was
a kid that my buddy's mother, grandmother something. I had
a coal saw my lip. I was like, oh, this
is awfrb. Yeah, she goes, you know, it takes care
of that, And I was like, not making out with
dirty women. She goes, no earwax, I said, earwax? She
(01:06:54):
said earwax? You put ear wax on a coal sow
it's gone.
Speaker 2 (01:06:57):
The next day. Guess what I didn't do put ear
wax on a cold sore? Of course I didn't, but
that was she's swore. I'm telling you, by the way,
just who can just conjure up earwax?
Speaker 11 (01:07:09):
I'm sure if you just dig in far enough you
I think everybody has some because you're not supposed to
use Q tips.
Speaker 2 (01:07:16):
I do every single day.
Speaker 4 (01:07:17):
I do not.
Speaker 2 (01:07:18):
My daughter goes in with my Oh, I'm.
Speaker 11 (01:07:20):
Like, you could almost come out the other side. I'm
in so far with the que No, I don't que
tip boy every day. And you don't think you have
ear wax, then I don't you have to.
Speaker 6 (01:07:29):
I don't.
Speaker 2 (01:07:29):
I'm telling you I do not. Where is my point?
They tell you Q tips push it further in any way? Yeah,
but where does it go? Then? Where does what go?
Your earwax? I don't know.
Speaker 8 (01:07:38):
When I get out of the shower, I put a
Kleenex on the tip of my pinky and I rub
it around in my ears and it comes out white,
makes that squeaky.
Speaker 2 (01:07:48):
Yes, both ears nothing m and so I don't have anything.
Speaker 15 (01:07:53):
Now.
Speaker 8 (01:07:53):
Maybe I'm lucky. Maybe it's just you know whatever, Maybe
that's purely concident. Maybe I'm just saying that.
Speaker 2 (01:07:58):
Like, you know, when I see her go at it
with I'm like, oh my god, it's like I know
what I'm doing, and I go okay, okay, okay, I.
Speaker 4 (01:08:07):
Have to do it.
Speaker 11 (01:08:07):
And every once in a while you get a little
too far and you make like that face. It hits something, right, Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah,
get a little off balance.
Speaker 8 (01:08:18):
Alan, You know what else pulls toxins out your goddamn
liver and kidneys.
Speaker 2 (01:08:21):
Yes, yes, exactly, that's the point. Yeah, they weren't putting
potatoes in Bernie Kozar's socks. They might have been, I mean,
you know rough shaped there before you guys transplant. Alan,
My girlfriend tells me to sleep with half an onion
next to my bed when I have the flu. Why
don't you break up with her? That's also probably because
she doesn't want to smell your flue Breath'd rather smell
(01:08:43):
an onion stuck between the two ears.
Speaker 8 (01:08:45):
Alan, I put potatoes in my socks and I have
gout hash browns in the morning.
Speaker 2 (01:08:50):
Yummy, yummy? How about that? Uh huh? Delicious? So good?
Speaker 6 (01:08:58):
And your dumb shot of oh, I worked in a
kiosk in the mall and I sill sunglasses. I am
so tired of people like you saying that you're.
Speaker 10 (01:09:15):
Family.
Speaker 6 (01:09:17):
You have no compassion for the working man. You just
play on your radio, Joe, don't play any good music anymore.
Speaker 2 (01:09:28):
Yeah, there was a guy that texted me yesterday and
said that he was at a mall. He moved to
des Moines, and he's like, Jesus, these Kiosk people are
really aggressive.
Speaker 8 (01:09:37):
Wasn't me that guy right there? Good gravy. He's trying
to trying to sound like angry political guy.
Speaker 11 (01:09:44):
Almost Tom felt like the return of your songwriter there
that likes to call you a homosexual.
Speaker 2 (01:09:52):
Feels like the.
Speaker 8 (01:09:53):
Same guy right, Maybe not now, but he was angry,
so wasn't me. By the way, I am a working man.
I don't know what you're talking about the working man.
I mean, I know what you mean, but I'm a
working man.
Speaker 13 (01:10:05):
Rob.
Speaker 2 (01:10:05):
I'm not breaking rocks, but I'm busting my ass every day.
This is work. It is right here, what we're doing
is work. I don't know what to tell you.
Speaker 8 (01:10:14):
You might not believe it, but okay, well anyway, sir,
it wasn't me hurling epithets at me.
Speaker 2 (01:10:20):
You homo a Hey, listen.
Speaker 8 (01:10:25):
The sunglass kiosk biz is not for the faint of heart, right,
and you got to get in front of people. Hey,
And that's how you know that you've reached an upper
echelon of salesmanship when you can sell sunglasses to people inside. Hey,
to Brighton here for you. No, I'm inside and the
(01:10:47):
mall lights are way way above my head. Wouldn't you
look good in these? And then they get you with
a mirror and then you go, oh, I would look
good in these?
Speaker 2 (01:10:54):
The Curling car show on one, let's call the Alan
Cox Show. You met Alan? Oh my god, I forgot
about Alan. Okay, you have a whiteboard.
Speaker 4 (01:11:07):
Two six seven eight one double oh seven or one
three four eight one double oh seven.
Speaker 2 (01:11:28):
Three five.
Speaker 8 (01:11:29):
I want to send me a text Alancoxshow dot com.
Email there if you need Alan cochro stickers. Always having
to send those out and been posting photos on the
Alan Coxhow Facebook page of listeners who are traveling and
tagging the show in places like Greece and Australia and
uh where else Raleigh, North Carolina.
Speaker 2 (01:11:50):
I believe so thanks one and all. I don't know.
Speaker 8 (01:11:53):
I guess the next trip I'll be taking is. I'm
going home for Thanksgiving, I'm going to Toronto, and we're
done for the year here. I guess i'll tag some
spots around there. I'll put a sticker on my mom's
fridge and just take a picture.
Speaker 2 (01:12:09):
Counts. It would be the first Alan Cox show sticker
in my mom's house. Really, yeah, my mom has an
Alan Cox show sticker in her house, does she? Really?
She does? All right? Well? And I tagged a whole
bunch of spots down there, huh. I tagged a whole
bunch of spots when I was down there.
Speaker 1 (01:12:27):
Yep.
Speaker 2 (01:12:27):
I'll have to remember to take some stickers with me.
Covered up that Jimmy Buffett sign with an Alan Cox
Show sticker. I like that.
Speaker 8 (01:12:35):
Although he's much I know you don't like him at all,
but boy, he's much much more prominent in this business
than we are. Feels disrespectful, well on our part.
Speaker 2 (01:12:50):
Tell you these things I did over there on the
Jimmy Buffett Memorial Highway.
Speaker 8 (01:12:56):
Your Cavaliers are off tonight, but they win last night
over the Milwaukee Bucks, who are now slouches one eighteen
to one oh six. The final tomorrow night, they are
still here at home. They're home through Sunday. In fact,
play the Houston Rockets tomorrow night. That's Kevin Durant and
Fred Van Vliet, right, I think they're on the Rockets. Yes,
(01:13:17):
and uh, six point thirty is your pre game tomorrow
night here in the buzzard. And then the Indiana Pacers
will be in town for an NBA Cup game, and
then Sunday night close out the weekend, Calves will host
the LA Clippers before they head up to Toronto to
play the Raptors. I guess they don't play on Thanksgiving Day,
do they? That's football's domain. Well, I think the NBA plays.
(01:13:39):
I just don't think they have any not the Calves. Yeah,
I don't think so. I'm pretty sure they play, though
they play now, they play Friday. They play the day
after Thanksgiving. They'll play the Atlanta Hawks down there in Atlanta.
When I'm looking at here, I'm.
Speaker 2 (01:13:53):
Not sure there's NBA games on Thanksgiving. Maybe not the Calves.
Maybe NBA games. Maybe they're cavalier.
Speaker 11 (01:14:00):
No, I'm looking maybe yeah, maybe they maybe they are off. Yeah, wow,
I guess I never realized. I know that they play
on Christmas. I always assume that they played on Thanksgiving.
Speaker 8 (01:14:09):
They play on MLK Day because we are preempted by
Calves on MLK Day, and they play on Christmas. I mean,
when you think about it, Rob, MLK Day and Christmas
are the two biggest gift giving days of the year. Yes,
remember my Martin Luther King Junior Day gift to you
last year?
Speaker 2 (01:14:29):
I don't.
Speaker 8 (01:14:30):
Oh, I'm sorry for me. I left you alone because
we were off all right. Yeah, I didn't text you
all day.
Speaker 11 (01:14:36):
The Calves will play on Christmas this year? Did you
already say that I did. I didn't realize. I knew
that there were games on Christmas for you, I did
not see that they were one of them taking out
the nix at Nude.
Speaker 2 (01:14:47):
By Calves next Christmas Day.
Speaker 16 (01:14:51):
I was flipping around the old boob tube last night
and came across Jeopardy and it was at that question
and I just landed on it. They asked the question,
I said, Beastie Boys, and then I kept moving through
the channels. My fiance has never been more impressed of
me ever, But yeah, whatever, I let her down shortly
(01:15:12):
after that, I'm sure.
Speaker 2 (01:15:13):
But Peyton Show, Richard Northfield Goodbye, how about that? He's
clicking around.
Speaker 6 (01:15:17):
Yeah.
Speaker 8 (01:15:17):
I was talking earlier about how there was an answer
on Jeopardy last night. The question was the Beastie Boys.
None of the three people got it and one like
there were seventy. You know, these are people that, by
all accounts should have known the Beastie Boys. They didn't
get it.
Speaker 7 (01:15:29):
Never have I ever six never have I ever wrapped
like this group. Well, you can't, you won't and you
don't stop. Mike de come and rock the sure shot.
Speaker 2 (01:15:39):
That's a lie. I one percent have Oh no, Mike
d have the Beastie Boys.
Speaker 8 (01:15:46):
Sometimes Ken Jennings is flabbergasted of what they don't know,
because sometimes he'll hit little editorial comments right.
Speaker 2 (01:15:54):
He'd be like Jesus Christ.
Speaker 8 (01:15:57):
He'll go ooh, bad news for Chris Rock. Chris Rock
was the question there? Who is Chris Rock?
Speaker 2 (01:16:06):
And uh yeah, oh I heard Stansbury talking about how
Shadur Sanders got burgled, Yeah during the game.
Speaker 8 (01:16:17):
Burgled during the game. This seems to be well, I
was gonna say, a growing trend. I don't know if
it rises to that level.
Speaker 2 (01:16:25):
Obviously we're going it's gonna make the news when a
professional athlete gets their.
Speaker 8 (01:16:29):
House broken into during a game down there right in
your neck of the woods, Madinah County. He he lives
in Granger Township, right, the ones who get it done?
Is that anywhere near you?
Speaker 2 (01:16:43):
Not far? Okay, not far? So if you were to
drive past his house, you could honk and wave and
he'd know as you.
Speaker 11 (01:16:52):
I don't think we're that close. Oh but I mean,
you know, I could probably figure out where it is approximately.
Speaker 2 (01:16:59):
Yeah, should know me, Rob? Okay, Rob, the guy made ducks.
You the guy that just broke into my house? They know, sir.
Speaker 8 (01:17:07):
Two hundred thousand dollars worth of property was stolen?
Speaker 2 (01:17:11):
Yeah? That what was in there?
Speaker 11 (01:17:13):
Well look I mean you've seen him right, Yeah. Just
the jewelry alone.
Speaker 2 (01:17:18):
Oh is how what it was? I'm like, that's more
than some people's houses. Oh yeah.
Speaker 11 (01:17:22):
They could get two hundred clean me out and I
would not have no two hundred thousand dollars worth this day.
You could take everything I own, yeah, including my cars
and my house. It'll probably not come up with two
hundred grand.
Speaker 2 (01:17:34):
Yeah.
Speaker 8 (01:17:35):
Local media personality Rob Anthony had his home burgled during
one episode of their popular afternoon show, The Alt Cox Show.
Over a WMMS and they say thieves got away with
eighteen thousand dollars worth of property, including two cars, cash,
and jewelry.
Speaker 2 (01:17:54):
Yeah right, thankfully, the most expensive thing Rob owned was
on his finger, his wedding ring. They broke into his
Caviare refrigerator and made away with the contents. Took my bubbly.
Speaker 8 (01:18:07):
Yes, his foam finger collection was stolen from the Somebody said,
is that foam finger for the whole finger? And I said, no,
the one right next to it.
Speaker 2 (01:18:21):
Wow. How about that?
Speaker 8 (01:18:22):
This guy making his NFL debut and somebody breaks into
his house.
Speaker 2 (01:18:28):
Yeah? Wild.
Speaker 11 (01:18:31):
As if the performance wasn't bad enough, he had to
go home to a burgled home.
Speaker 2 (01:18:35):
Yeah. I don't understand how that happens, though, I mean,
I mean, they know where you're gonna be. I know,
if you're how do you let that happen?
Speaker 8 (01:18:45):
Surveillance cameras in his home captured video of the suspects
as they entered and moved through the house. So he's
got cameras they've got so you're not going to identify them.
Speaker 11 (01:18:55):
There has to be more security if you're those dudes,
if you're living in but there isn't mansions.
Speaker 2 (01:19:01):
There needs to be like people, Yes, these.
Speaker 8 (01:19:05):
Guys aren't hiring because who thinks their house is going.
Speaker 2 (01:19:08):
To get broken?
Speaker 11 (01:19:09):
How well could it possibly cost you to have private
security when you're not home. If you're at a football
your job is eight hours a day, you're out of
the office, Uh well once a week in.
Speaker 8 (01:19:20):
The Yes, I just got to say, even if you're
one of these guys, I just can't imagine you would
think you'd get a home invasion while you were playing
a game.
Speaker 11 (01:19:30):
Something Just like that whole thing to me, whenever you
read those things, it always feels like it's inside Jobby,
like it's right, he's somebody insurance or just someone who
knows what he's got in there. It's never it's never like,
oh I I never had any contact whatsoever. I just
wanted to break into Shador Sanders' house. Somebody did some
work there, some something, you know what I mean, like
(01:19:52):
a targeted incursion.
Speaker 2 (01:19:53):
Yes.
Speaker 11 (01:19:54):
I just feel like when you're when you're that level
of person, have somebody at the house all the time.
Betty will now two people's say designated survivor.
Speaker 8 (01:20:03):
Right if the president and the vice president both go down,
I mean you're gonna want Mike Johnson run in the country. Well,
that's always you check it on your porn news. Did
you watch that show Designated Survivor?
Speaker 2 (01:20:16):
Yeah?
Speaker 8 (01:20:16):
No with Keiper Sutherland. Yeah no, Yeah, so you know
you keep one person back. Yes, so if like the
and they don't know who it is and they.
Speaker 2 (01:20:25):
Blow up the Capitol and every senator and everything in
line of succession is dead, you're the person designated survivor.
Speaker 8 (01:20:32):
Yep, the designated survivor, by the way, and I probably
shouldn't put it all out there, but the designated survivor
of the Allan Cox Show. Yeah, John Legore, that's a
sales uh person here. By the way, I figured i'd
put a Rhode Island native in there, perfect.
Speaker 2 (01:20:55):
Yes, Well you think I couldn't do that job?
Speaker 17 (01:20:57):
Allen?
Speaker 2 (01:20:57):
What do you think? What do you think? You think
I couldn't do this job?
Speaker 8 (01:21:00):
By the way, for everybody asking, because we mentioned it
yesterday at some length, our new phone screener is starting Monday.
Speaker 2 (01:21:06):
Yeah. She excited.
Speaker 11 (01:21:08):
I confirmed it again. I was texting with her last night.
I have to think she's excited. She's very excited. Good
And I said, you think you're excited, you should meet.
Speaker 2 (01:21:17):
Me Alan and I are positively Turgent. I don't know
what to do with myself. So shder Sanders, who's a
young man. This dude's twenty three. Yeah, I didn't know
he's a young Yeah. I mean if you see him
any I mean he's constantly he's dripping, yeah, always. Yeah,
So it's yeah, you know, I'm sure that's a part
(01:21:38):
of it. They weren't ripping flat screen TVs off the wall,
you know what I mean, Right, they're like, if this
guy's wearing this, he's got way more of it. They
knew where to go. I guarantee you those people knew.
Speaker 10 (01:21:48):
Well.
Speaker 8 (01:21:48):
It's like people on Instagram who are always flexing and
then they take pictures of their vacation and their house
gets broken into because they're.
Speaker 2 (01:21:54):
Like, hey, empty house, empty, nobody's there.
Speaker 4 (01:21:57):
Yeah.
Speaker 8 (01:21:58):
I think way fewer people just from the stories I've
seen of celebrities getting their homes broken into things that
I think way fewer people have these sophisticated security systems
than you would think. I think they're rocking ring cameras
like everybody else. Maybe a little bit more than that,
but it's not like they have people at the house.
Speaker 2 (01:22:19):
That's crazy.
Speaker 8 (01:22:20):
And I mean, Sam, I just think if you, like
Kim Kardashian was on vacation and somebody broke into her
house or like when she was in Paris, right hostage
or something, Yeah, looking for jewelry. So it's like you're
kind of caught between a rock and a hard place.
If you're somebody for whom your whole brand is flexing publicly,
(01:22:41):
you're like, look what I got, and then they're like, ooh,
look what you do got I'm gonna break into your house.
Speaker 2 (01:22:47):
But yeah, you're right. Maybe it was a plumber inside job,
maybe something a union job. I wonder if he had
anybody over there who was doing a plum job, who
would be plum or maybe they were there powder coating
his rims.
Speaker 8 (01:23:08):
Yes, a rim job. Listen to Shader Sanders. Rim job
is one of the most difficult moves on Urban Dictionary.
It's what I've heard, so it's worth looking into.
Speaker 2 (01:23:17):
Drunk Sue says. It's also the ones you'd least expect.
Wouldn't it be great if Dion Sanders broke into his
son's house and stole two hundred thousand dollars worth of stuff,
That would be the person who would least expect, right, Yeah, dion. Dad,
you're such a dick. Why would you do that? I
just really like that necklace. Oh right, that's his kid.
Speaker 8 (01:23:35):
Yeah, I'm so used to hearing this name that I
forgot the lineage, right I did. I mean all other
times I just hear the name, the name, the name,
completely forgetting.
Speaker 2 (01:23:45):
That's his dad, he and his brother. What's his name? Shiloh? Shiloh.
Wasn't that one of the games on the Price is Right?
It was also a song Shiloh uh huh by John Denver. No, Shiloh,
come on, I'll give you another. I'll give you another
crack at it. Yeah you should know that. Give me
(01:24:06):
the era oh man uh seventies seventies a song called
Shiloh from the seventies. Yeah, one neil Bert dying o
neil Bert right then, and then.
Speaker 8 (01:24:27):
Leg and Shiloh, Shilo my friend my Shiloh it together.
Speaker 2 (01:24:38):
Yeah, dreams right big?
Speaker 8 (01:24:44):
I remember every lyric never had one lesson right me Shillo,
I need don't way.
Speaker 2 (01:24:56):
Yes, my mom played this non stop, and the shovel
laying me said right on my face that he was
saying these were green bean in there? Yeah, the beans
shy low, Okay, good shut. I was young, Hello, and
(01:25:19):
now I was young.
Speaker 8 (01:25:22):
Okay, Well, yeah, I hadn't heard about that. I heard
Stansbury talking about it at length, and I was like, oh, man,
house got broken into.
Speaker 2 (01:25:30):
That does suck. That's suck. It's the perfect cap on
a crappy day. Oh you're playing for the Cleveland Browns.
You come home, you get nuked, you lose the game
in the last broken windows ten minutes.
Speaker 13 (01:25:41):
Yeah.
Speaker 8 (01:25:42):
I like how they described it, though. The twenty three
year old former All American struggled mightily. That's a nice
way of putting it. How did he do?
Speaker 4 (01:25:51):
You know?
Speaker 2 (01:25:51):
That's what the fans said too, you know, oh, he
struggled mightily. They were very poetic in their criticism. That's
exactly what it sounded like.
Speaker 8 (01:25:59):
Yeah, but but yeah, and Stansburg is rattling off all
these other guys, is like Travis Kelsey and Patrick Mahomes.
And you know, when these guys are at work, people
are they're getting burgled.
Speaker 4 (01:26:13):
M m.
Speaker 8 (01:26:15):
Is nothing sacred anymore. Alan, I read the door was unlocked.
I mean, I don't know if that's true. You might
not have human twenty four hour security, but your door unlocked,
I don't know. Is he in some like gated community
or is he like behind I mean.
Speaker 11 (01:26:35):
I don't know exactly where his house is, but I'm
sure it's not like he's not living in the same
cul de sac as me.
Speaker 2 (01:26:41):
You know, he's probably in a really nice area.
Speaker 8 (01:26:45):
Alan Sean Taylor was a player for Washington who was
killed in a home invasion. He was injured and the
intruders thought he was out of town, but he was
at home.
Speaker 2 (01:26:54):
Wow about that? Yeah, I feel like these days like, yeah, I.
Speaker 8 (01:27:01):
Don't know, man, I wonder if security, and obviously private
security is beyond most people's means, right most that's why
there's a boom and ring cameras and all that kind
of crap. However, I would think that if you have
the means, it's like any place where there's a lot
of people.
Speaker 2 (01:27:17):
Now, like anything can pop off. Yeah.
Speaker 8 (01:27:21):
I don't know, but two hundred thousand dollars because originally
I thought it said twenty and I was like, oh,
well listen, it's a lot of money.
Speaker 2 (01:27:32):
But two hundred grand, Well, I'll tell you that the
stats for that game, you would think would be enough
to go home and just be like, man, they're brutal today,
really suck. Yeah, they're brutal. He has, but everybody has
a bad day at work. Rub not that bad. He
has the lowest passer rating in NFL history. I know. Yeah,
(01:27:56):
but if he spikes the ball game he was four
of sixteen for forty seven yards with a pick and
no touchdowns. If he spiked the ball on every play,
every play, he would have had a twenty seven passer rating.
Mm hmm. So he should have done that. Should have
just spiked the ball every play. He's obvious.
Speaker 11 (01:28:16):
I mean, listen, man, he went out there craping rocks.
There was a ton of nerves, all the pressure in
the world. Everybody's been calling to see him on the field. Nope,
you cannot.
Speaker 2 (01:28:26):
No matter what.
Speaker 11 (01:28:27):
He was going into a tough situation, no matter what,
He's much better than what you saw out there.
Speaker 2 (01:28:32):
For sure. How good is he? I don't know. Should
he be a starter, I don't know the answer to
that even but I can tell you he's better than
what we saw.
Speaker 8 (01:28:41):
I had one of our beer chiefs in North Carolina,
a bit of a pivot, but one of our beer
chiefs in North Carolina about two dudes who got into
a shootout at a grocery store because they were fighting
over a turkey.
Speaker 2 (01:28:53):
Ooh, Now, I don't know why.
Speaker 8 (01:28:56):
Because the economy is great, prices are way down, doesn't
matter what you're seeing. I've heard on good authority prices
are all way down, So you're crazy if you think
they're not. Anyway, gun play started up. The guy was
arguing with the cashier over the price of the turkey.
I wonder how big the turkey? You know, you can
(01:29:17):
go big with some of these birds. Yeah, and another
guy stepped in. That's where you get into trouble. There's
another guy, you know who's gonna be whet up. They
get into a fist fight. That's level one.
Speaker 2 (01:29:28):
But they were both strapped and so one of them
got shot in the arm over the Thanksgiving turkey.
Speaker 10 (01:29:41):
Trustomer came from rest to six, ran over to the
man that was all in my face. Was like, this
is a woman, talk to me like that. Next thing,
you know, they right there, confrontation go on. They fighting.
The man was standing tussling and trying to get his
gun out of his pouch to shoot the other man.
And the mass was like, oh, you want to pull
(01:30:01):
out a gun? They mean right now, what I'm off with,
is that it's saw shooting.
Speaker 2 (01:30:06):
He went to get his gun out of his pouch. Ouch.
Let me reach into my pouch and get my firearm
or Thanksgiving turkey. Hmm. It reminds me I gonna get
my Thanksgiving turkey.
Speaker 8 (01:30:18):
I was thinking the very same thing. I mean, my
mom is, you know, obviously doing Thanksgiving, but I was.
There was an article that popped up the Midwestern mystery
of Snicker's salad at Thanksgiving. I know you're not from
the Midwest, but I am. I've never heard of this, never,
never Snicker's salad. And this article is like, like, everybody's
on board, yeah Thanksgiving. You know in the Midwest they
(01:30:40):
do Snicker's salad. I'm like, no, no, I've never heard
of this before in my life. Vanilla pudding, milk whip topping,
Granny Smith apples, and chunks of Snickers sounds disgusting. I've
never heard of this a candy bar salad. Maybe somebody
in the audience right now can set me straight. But
my grandma made what I thought were weird things, but
(01:31:03):
I don't think they're that weird. She made something called
frozen Waldorf salad.
Speaker 2 (01:31:06):
Have you ever had that? Not frozen. I've had a
walld Or salad.
Speaker 8 (01:31:10):
This is what people say, but it's like it's it's
kosher for people to celebrate Passover, but it's it's like
pineapple juice and whipping cream and marshmallows and grapes and
pineapple and pecans, and it's all frozen. And she would
put it in this pan and we I'd scarf it up,
frozen Waldorf salad. But I had never known anyone else
who had ever made it, No friends, families. She also
(01:31:31):
made this stuff called ambrosia. This ambrosia salad right where
it's like coconut and it's mandarin oranges and it's you know,
it's uh, pineapple and whipped cream, and.
Speaker 2 (01:31:44):
You are the biggest pod.
Speaker 8 (01:31:48):
I go, Gramma can just turned this down. I'm trying
to eat this salad over here. And it was and
I'm not averse to coconut. Some people that you lose
them at coconut, but I'm in. But Knickers salad, I've
never once heard of that. And it looks, I don't
get me wrong, like a Snickers were hot off Halloween,
(01:32:08):
but milk and vanilla pudding mix and oh jeesus Christ
on the Cross.

was reading about a guy who got to snatched up.
I think this was in Montana because he was driving
and trying to relieve himself into a Budweiser can. Oh
if he was trying to make his own trucker bomb, right, yeah,
(01:35:46):
but why do we do this on this should be
the finals naked trucker bombs.
Speaker 6 (01:35:51):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (01:35:51):
You gotta get it into the into the beer can, right,
give the ladies a she weed, even it out. Yeah,
you don't want the guys to have an un fair
advantage or as if you want to. Yeah. The shenis
fifty three year old James Howard.
Speaker 8 (01:36:11):
Was rolling down the roadway and Montana slammed into the
back of a volkswagon that had two people in it.
He was in a Chevy suburban. That's no small vehicle.
Cop showed up and he had to tell the cop that.
Speaker 2 (01:36:31):
Well.
Speaker 8 (01:36:31):
The cop noticed that the guy had like a tall
boy in his right hand. He quickly put it in
the center console or whatever. When he handed it over,
he goes, that's full of p that's not beer.
Speaker 2 (01:36:42):
It's like dumb and dumber.
Speaker 8 (01:36:44):
Yeah, and he had, uh, he had rear ended the
other vehicle because he was trying to pee into the
can and it didn't work out. I'd be worried I'd
cut my tip on the You know, there's a very
sharp rim there around the.
Speaker 11 (01:36:59):
Unless it was all of those bottle cans, you know
what I mean, then there's the openings a little bigger.
But you said it was just a tall boy, yeah, yeah,
so that's just a regular pop top.
Speaker 2 (01:37:10):
Yeah.
Speaker 8 (01:37:11):
Driver the Volkswagen said he was at a stop light
when he saw lights approaching in his rear view mirror,
and he told his girlfriend to brace for impact because
he knew what was going to happen. And the guy
who hit him told cops that he had only had
one beer and that was it. But they were like,
but he was slurring his words and his pants were
wet with urine because yeah, he's trying to pee in
(01:37:33):
the end of the beer can.
Speaker 2 (01:37:35):
Well, you can't stop once it starts because that stings.
He told the cops that he had more than a
couple of DUIs. Quote end quote. It wasn't supposed to
be driving. I'm going to jail for an fing long time,
he told the cops. Hey, man, glass half full, right,
can half full? There's guys driving around with a dozen DUIs.
(01:37:58):
I don't know how they do it in Montana on
big sky Country, but here in Ohio, Florida of the North,
there's all kinds of people zigging in and out. I
had never made a trucker bomb until that day. I
was waiting for the tow truck when the station vehicle
broke down the cruise the day of the show cruise.
(01:38:19):
I uh, I couldn't hold it. I had to. It
was the first time in my life I'd ever done one.
I filled up a Dunkin Donuts cup. Yep.
Speaker 11 (01:38:28):
I felt pretty proud of myself, tho, I'm not gonna
lie to you. Dunkin Donuts, Dunkin Donuts. I had talked
about it with the kids because Cali was like, why
is there so many? When we're on our trip from
back from Virginia, It's like, why is there so many
like milk cartons and stuff on the side of the road.
Speaker 2 (01:38:42):
I'm like, honey, those are trucker bombs pissed jugs.
Speaker 11 (01:38:46):
She's like, oh, she noticed that they were out there,
but she wasn't looking at him to see like they
were filled with yell I understand, you know. I'm like, yeah,
there's a trucker bomb. She's like, you're kidding. I'm like, no,
they don't stop. Like, if he's got to go, he's
gonna just pee into that jug and then launch it
out the window. It's like, oh gross, Like yeah, yeah,
(01:39:07):
they can't stop down the trucker right a passage kitto.
Speaker 2 (01:39:10):
Yeah, every time they stop. That's money. The boys are
thirsty in Atlanta and there's beer in Texasana gonness it
down so well? I pooh, I cannot swoopee bet boop
beep beep boop, beat beepoop poop.
Speaker 8 (01:39:29):
Christine watching the show on YouTube from Parish, Florida, ro
how about that? I only hit that guy in the
back of a volkswagon. That's a very uncomfortable place. Yes,
let me get you in a very uncomfortable place, like
the back of a volkswagon. Yes, correct? Where is Parish, Florida?
Speaker 2 (01:39:49):
Is that near your mom? Down there off of the
Jimmy Buffett Memorial Highway. I don't know. Hold on, let's
take a piece.
Speaker 8 (01:39:54):
This is just north of Sarasota, across the bay from
Saint Peter's. So we're talking like between Tampa and Sarasota. Yeah,
all right, yeah, Parish, Florida. That is on the Gulf
of America side of Florida.
Speaker 2 (01:40:07):
Are we still doing that? Gulf of America? I don't know.
I just I just I googled it and zoomed out
and it says Gulf of America.
Speaker 8 (01:40:14):
So I knew people were gonna tell me about snicker
salad in the break. I've never heard of it. They
were chalking it up to some Midwest concoction, and people
are telling me.
Speaker 2 (01:40:28):
My mother in law makes it as a dip for apples.
Speaker 8 (01:40:31):
Somebody said, all right, alan apples, snicker salad is delicious.
You're both hydro cephalic. I like the the multi syllabic
insults that we get on this show.
Speaker 6 (01:40:44):
Right.
Speaker 8 (01:40:45):
We know our audience and they know us. Hydro What
we got water on the brain, rob is what this
person's trying to tell us. Hydro cephalis, right, water and
swelling on the brain. This person is implying because by
the way I didn't say. I didn't say it was
wasn't good. I've never had it before. I'd never heard
of it before. I only heard phallic and syphilis, so
(01:41:08):
I figured it DROs phallic something to do with it.
Speaker 2 (01:41:10):
Had that, but apparently not. Thank you, Alan, you gotta
try the grape salad with butterfinger. Yeah, grape and peanut butter.
I didn't say great tastes. I in fact said I
would try that. I didn't say anything bad. I know
I would try it.
Speaker 8 (01:41:27):
I try anything once, Alan, My family has all three
of those things. Ambrosio for Thanksgiving, Waldorf salad for Easter,
and Snicker salad for fall gatherings. It's incredible because it's sweet,
but the apples give it a tart flavor. Why use
the Granny Smiths? Well, yeah, but of course it's sweet.
It's got caramel sauce on it. Woof no, listen, uh,
(01:41:51):
I got a sweet tooth. I think I have it
pretty much under control. I would take a bite. I
always had a rule in the love Granny Smith I
like Snickers. When my kids growing up, I always said,
you can't say you don't like something if you haven't
tried it, So we would always I would always have
them try things. Then then if you don't like it, okay,
well we call them no thank you bites, right, you
(01:42:13):
gotta at least take a no thank you bite just
if you take it and you like it, keep going.
Speaker 2 (01:42:17):
If you don't, no thank you, not for me.
Speaker 8 (01:42:22):
I mean that was a more delicate way to do it.
When my older kids were a little I called it
you better put that yeah thing in your mouth.
Speaker 2 (01:42:30):
Yeah. They were called the clean your effing plate in
my house.
Speaker 17 (01:42:34):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (01:42:34):
I didn't come from a clean your plate family. And
you know what messages with me to this day. Honestly, like,
if I put something on my plate, I'm gonna eat it.
I can't like, I always will take less than what
I want in case I get full, because I don't
want to have to keep eating, so I'm beyond it.
Well I think that then you're not being wasteful. In
my forties though, I still do that, Like I'm like,
(01:42:55):
oh I I yeah, I it's on my plate. I
have to eat it. I don't like something, I'll eat it.
Oh why would you eat something you didn't like because
it's on my plate? Well, put if I took it,
push it off your plate, onto someone else's plate. I'm
not going to do that. It's rude. I have good nannies. No,
I'm just saying that somebody else might really want what
(01:43:16):
you don't want. Anybody want. This sucks, Sorry, Grandma, Yeah, oh, Grandma,
I'm sorry, certainly didn't mean to uh get you upset
like that. Sorry, Grandma. Nobody wants your food here. A
bunch of as right, a bunch of ass you. I
(01:43:37):
hate you.
Speaker 8 (01:43:38):
I go out, Holly wo Gee Whizz doesn't like you.
I'm starting to get that distinct impression.
Speaker 2 (01:43:54):
Yeah, I don't know why. Man, he surely does something
against you. Oh, this is rich Times.
Speaker 12 (01:44:00):
Befoord to listen to podcast yesterday you and Robert discussing
incest and how you made the comment that you didn't
have any cousins but you.
Speaker 2 (01:44:08):
I was like, what the hell are we telling? You
and Rob were discussing incests. I'm like, were we? Oh?
The Godfather?
Speaker 6 (01:44:12):
Right?
Speaker 2 (01:44:12):
The Godfather?
Speaker 8 (01:44:13):
Leslie watched The Godfather is like, why is there an
incest subplot in this movie?
Speaker 2 (01:44:19):
Hey?
Speaker 8 (01:44:19):
Well, hey, it's rich Don Jackson. Before you and Robert
talking about incests and.
Speaker 12 (01:44:24):
Discussed an incest, how you made the comment that you
didn't have any cousins. Well, you got cousins, you just
didn't grow up around them. And that's actually a little
bit more scarier because you could end up marrying a
relative without even knowing about it because you don't know
them by the way or know them as a relative.
I know, in the state of Virginia, when me and
my wife got married, the county clerk actually had to
do like a background check on our families just to
make sure that we weren't.
Speaker 2 (01:44:45):
Cousins or distantly related. Anyways, about your snoke, that.
Speaker 8 (01:44:48):
He's true, Thank you, rich I did have cousins, I
just didn't know them or grow up around them because
we didn't on my dad's side of the family. So yes,
that is an important distinction to make. I've told the
story about how my cousin hit me up when we
were in our forties. Our dads are brothers by email,
and she's living in Kansas, So yeah, I guess I
did you know? We grew up just with my mom's family,
(01:45:09):
and she had one brother who was didn't have kids.
Speaker 11 (01:45:15):
I grew up in a family with you, like we
saw extended family a lot. Good for you, the son
of the bitch extended family all the time. So I
would we would on Sundays, we would have dinner with
you know, my grandfathers, brothers and sisters and their families
and kids, and there would be a lot of people in.
Speaker 2 (01:45:34):
And out, a big Italian family. Huge. Yeah.
Speaker 11 (01:45:37):
So I had third and fourth cousins who I was
around all of the time that were horribly attractive. But
it was never anything that I was like, Okay, it's
a fourth cousin. It's okay, Like I can do what
I want. I would have been shot well.
Speaker 8 (01:45:57):
But it also has to be a two way street.
I mean, I mean, who's going to broach the subject? Hey,
maybe we should go in the other room and make
out right right, And I mean that's a leap.
Speaker 2 (01:46:08):
Hey, what are you doing after? Hey, I'm gonna be
in Grandma's living room. What are you doing? I'm gonna
be in there to you when I watch TV in
the lungdero flicks and chill. Maybe, yeah, what do you
think under that green blanket? How about that? Yeah?
Speaker 11 (01:46:21):
I just I could never but my aunt, no sorry,
my mother's cousin, not my aunt. They married people from
opposite sides of the family, like hurt my mother's first
cousin married my mother's first cousin from the other side
of the family, which I always thought was the weirdest
(01:46:42):
thing in the world.
Speaker 2 (01:46:43):
I would always say, like.
Speaker 11 (01:46:44):
The family stick, but when you think about it, it
wasn't because it was a completely separate side of the family,
you know what I mean, Like my mother's father, his
sister's kid, you know what I mean. And then my
grandmother's brother kid got married, and I always thought it
was very weird.
Speaker 2 (01:47:02):
But I don't know. I'm confused, are you There's a
lot going on there? Are you confused? Did I not
explain it? Well, no, no, you did. But that's got
nothing to do with me being confused. Well it does,
because that means I didn't do my job of explaining
that I got I hear somebody I didn't have cousins, right,
it's a whole on anything. It was weird from one
side or the other. And then they yeah, I got it.
(01:47:27):
I think I got it right.
Speaker 11 (01:47:29):
It'd be like if I don't let me think, I
don't know, how would that go. I don't know either way.
They weren't blood relatives, they weren't like relative relatives.
Speaker 2 (01:47:37):
Yeah, it was right.
Speaker 11 (01:47:40):
By marriage, yeah, which I still thought was too close
for comfort.
Speaker 8 (01:47:45):
Yeah, but if you're not blood related, I think all
bets are all. They could just as easily be somebody
you met, you know, if you met him at a
bar and then you find out later on, oh, by marriage.
You know that's not the weirdest thing. Well, it's like
your two phones guy, Yeah, drilling his cousin and he
didn't care. Kevin Gates didn't care. Found out it was
his cousin and he's like, hey man, we've been thugging
(01:48:05):
all this way through. I'm gonna stop now. This guy's smart.
He knows what's up. Goe for the cousin and won't
for the load. Yeah, if you're getting down on like
(01:48:25):
a second or third cousin and then it goes public,
right like people are asking you about it in interviews.
Speaker 2 (01:48:33):
Yeah, he's that's right. I didn't know. But then when
I found out, it was too late because that booty
was Yeah, yet Dustin down in Georgia checked in Allan,
it's justin down here, George. Man. You know, I got
a call and clear up some of this damn truck.
Speaker 18 (01:48:55):
Bomb stuff that y'all talking about. I'm currently sitting in Shanahan, Illinois,
waiting to pick up and cake a Key, Illinois and
go to Hodge's South Carolina.
Speaker 2 (01:49:10):
So, but tell rob who the hell we uses a
milk carton? And I don't, I don't.
Speaker 18 (01:49:17):
I don't even know where you could buy a milk
carton unless you buy like a half a gallon out
of a grocery store.
Speaker 2 (01:49:23):
But nobody is taking a pish, as y'all like to say,
in a milk carton.
Speaker 18 (01:49:29):
And another thing is it is damn near impossible to
take a pish while driving a semi truck down the road.
I have tried, and you just cannot get relaxed. You
have to pull over and stop. But uh, but I
do pen bottles quite a bit. I just put them
in the trash hand and then dump them in the dun't.
Speaker 2 (01:49:51):
But just want to clear some of that up for y'all.
Nobody's paying and milk carton, yes they are, see you
buy Robbie can't hear you, I know, but you can
tell in there, and can Kaki Illinois? Tell tell the
bunch of them that we saw full of pea, that
they weren't filled with pea any chance it was lemonade.
Speaker 11 (01:50:11):
There were gallon milk jugs, and there were half gallon
milk jugs that we saw. Maybe they were orange juice
containers because they are similar. Yeah, but but definite, one
hundred percent. He can't tell you what you didn't see.
That's right, sir, and uh. I didn't say everybody stop,
(01:50:34):
doesn't stop.
Speaker 2 (01:50:35):
I just said it's more efficient to do it that way. Right,
to get off the exit. Get back on all the
nonsense you're dicking around. Oh you know what, maybe I
do want to pack a gum no that goes away
if you pull over on the side of the road.
Some people pointing out that you and I went past it. Two.
Speaker 8 (01:50:54):
It didn't really jump out at me that you were
talking about. Even a fourth cousin is too close for comfort.
Come on, I can't hit every single one of them.
I don't know Ellen. Wasn't Rudy Giuliani married to a cousin? Yes,
and look what happened to him. Somebody wrote the same
(01:51:17):
situation with two of my siblings. My aunt's husband's nephew
is their dad. Now see I'm lost siblings aunt's husband.
Even the people who are nephew is their dead.
Speaker 2 (01:51:32):
I was gonna say even the people who are in
it and doing it and engaging in this activity have
to run a friggin float chart.
Speaker 11 (01:51:38):
Rob's family tree winds together like a game of twister.
This is distant family.
Speaker 8 (01:51:43):
Yeah, but it's also like a step Listen, what's one
of the most popular Genrejean in pornography, Rob's step relatives.
Speaker 2 (01:51:51):
Yeah, I don't know how that blew up. I genuinely don't.
I think it was.
Speaker 11 (01:51:57):
I think it all happened because it was a sub
category because it started with the step mom stuff.
Speaker 2 (01:52:02):
This was popular.
Speaker 11 (01:52:03):
Yeah, but how because people wanted to watch milk porn.
So that was just a way that it was there.
Speaker 2 (01:52:10):
It has to be. That's the only way that that
makes sense. Well, something that developed in other things. Yeah, something,
but it's not blood.
Speaker 8 (01:52:19):
Listen, if you got a full head of steam in
your horny, as long as it's not blood, it's all
systems go.
Speaker 2 (01:52:25):
If you go to family reunions to meet Wilman, you
might be a redneck. Uh huh. If your family tree
is a stump, you might big. If your ports collapses
(01:52:46):
and kills more than four dogs. If you ever mode
your grass and found an automobile neck if your son
comes to your eighth grade graduation, you might be if
(01:53:12):
you divorce your wife and you still call her says
yeah mind me, yeah, all right, wellieway, thank you.
Speaker 8 (01:53:24):
Dustin appreciate that he contends quite vehemently.
Speaker 2 (01:53:29):
There are no tricker bombs in milk bottles.
Speaker 6 (01:53:31):
Rob.
Speaker 2 (01:53:33):
If your wallet and your dog have a chain, you
might be a red man if your wife surprises you
with an anniversary gift of his and her spit umps.
Aye I hai hey hol ray.

Yes, Yes day, Yes day, yesday.
Speaker 2 (01:54:46):
I got that turp to la. By the way, I've
been burying the lead on that.
Speaker 8 (01:54:52):
Every afternoon this week, right around five o'clock's about eight
minutes from now, sending people to our twenty twenty six
Alter Ego Festival, Green Day. It's twenty one pilots, Sublime,
Cage the Elephant, Good Charlotte. Remember them, mister Cameron Diez
(01:55:13):
and mister Nicole Richie. They both married the celebrity chicks,
didn't they The Madden brothers, they both got themselves prominent
accomplished wives. Anyway, five o'clock every afternoon this week, that
trip to Lau and a pal, send you to the event,
fly out, put you up, get you a thousand bucks.
Speaker 2 (01:55:33):
It's completely sold out. That happens every single year.
Speaker 8 (01:55:37):
It'll happen January seventeenth at the Kia Forum right there
in lovely and bucolic Inglewood, California.
Speaker 2 (01:55:46):
And if you've never been, oh it's a scene, man.
So that trip on the way.
Speaker 8 (01:55:53):
Camalie's off tonight, but a big win last night here
at home against the Milwaukee Bucks. Won eighteen one of six.
Tomorrow night, seven o'clock tip off, six thirty pre game.
As soon as we get out, they will be hosting
the Rockets of Houston, Texas. The Pacers will come to town.
Clippers will be here as well. The oh god, we
(01:56:14):
were talking about this a couple of weeks ago, and
they've already eighty six the Cleveland stop on the Great
Lakes Cruise. I wish I hadn't already spent thirty six
thousand dollars on this thing, Rob, I was really I
went all in on the Great Lakes Cruise. There is
(01:56:36):
a company called the American Cruise Line, and they were
making a whole big deal about the fact that Cleveland
was going to be part of their Great Lakes Cruise.
People who were like, well, I'd like to be on
a boat just in more of a geographically confined area.
American Cruise Lines is a very fast growing company. They're
(01:56:59):
based here in the United States, and they were going
to be launching that cruise from Cleveland. It turns out
Cleveland's not on the itinerary at all anymore, which has
got to be a bummer because, boy, with respect, if
you're going to go on a Great Lakes cruise, you
know you're not going to Vienna. So they will instead
(01:57:22):
launch from Buffalo, New York, and their only port of
call in Ohio will be Toledo.
Speaker 2 (01:57:28):
Boy, imagine that.
Speaker 6 (01:57:30):
Now.
Speaker 8 (01:57:31):
I don't understand how you get here, because it's not
like something fell apart. They said they couldn't find a
suitable docking location. You guys have spent an amount of
time on the weekends at the Leather Stallion probably might
run into the same situation. But this isn't something that
just happens overnight, right, I mean, you already have your
locations set before you even announce here's the itinerary. So
(01:57:54):
I'm curious what happened. We just couldn't find the right
place to dock in Cleveland.
Speaker 2 (01:58:01):
You couldn't, So they they're going to do Buffalo and Toledo.
Speaker 8 (01:58:11):
Most cruise ships, of course, you've seen them, right, most
cruise ships. The port of Cleveland is right there by
Browns Stadium. So I'm not sure why these guys couldn't
figure it out. So if you bought tickets, now listen,
if you live here and bought tickets, I don't know
(01:58:34):
what you were looking to do, but it's not going
to be uh, not long after announcing the whole big
thing that it's not going to stop in Cleveland. The
fourteen day American Great Lakes Route rob fourteenth days between
Cleveland and Milwaukee. That's the fourteen day, the nine day
(01:58:57):
between Cleveland and Syracuse, New York. Those were the planned roots. Instead,
both of them will launch from Buffalo. Still too long,
nine days, fourteen days on Lake Erie, right, I mean
it's you know, if you take one of those Alaskan cruises,
you go up the straight there, you know, what I mean.
And then you'll get off and go in these little
(01:59:19):
towns or whatever stand bears and I guess they're like
all whales. Okay, yeah, I would. I would Alaskan cruises
on a bucket list, and I do cruises. Yeah, oh yeah, man,
how do you not want to see that.
Speaker 2 (01:59:34):
Polar bears? They're all skinny? Now that's depressing. Well, if
I get there quick enough, they'll still be alive. Yeah,
so I can gauk at them, right, throw them a
bottle of coke, yes, all right? And see icebergs and
that kind of stuff.
Speaker 8 (01:59:54):
Well, you are a Titanic nerd, so I imagine that
the icebergs probably.
Speaker 2 (01:59:58):
Hold a lot of life for you. Drink some glacier water.
Speaker 8 (02:00:02):
Glacier water, yeah, yeah, I mean if you were to
you know what, you leave Seattle, you go to catch
a can and juno and all that. I mean, it's probably,
but you're like going like the cruises that I've been on.
I've been on three cruises and they were like to
the Bahamas. Right, you're going an Alaskan cruise. I know
it's very popular, but I mean you're going up the coast. Yeah,
(02:00:25):
so you're not like out in the ocean. Well, you
don't want to be out in the ocean up there.
That's when you just you see this stuff on the coast. Yeah,
but I look a bear. Hey, look he's waiting. He's
got a a scarf.
Speaker 2 (02:00:38):
Oh my god, is that really anchorage? Yeah, that's what
I want to see.
Speaker 8 (02:00:42):
I mean, I know Glacier Bay National Parks up there,
and that would be pretty cool. But it's like, you know,
if you they ain't cheap, No, to go off the coast,
you got to fly to Vancouver and then go to
Skagway or whatever.
Speaker 2 (02:00:57):
You know. But people swear by him. Stop loafing up
my cheerios.
Speaker 8 (02:01:00):
Man, People who have gone swear by them. Yeah, I
gotta go to see the potentially last polar Bears. Of
what you're saying, no Ah, they'll be all right.
Speaker 4 (02:01:15):
Now.
Speaker 8 (02:01:15):
Hey, I need to fly out of fair Banks. Is
there anybody who can come pick me up? So like
a motor coach or something. By all the polar bear
are gone. They were all teats up when I got
up here.
Speaker 2 (02:01:27):
Went they went, no, no, you're further No.
Speaker 6 (02:01:32):
Yeah.
Speaker 8 (02:01:33):
You could take a twelve day Alaskan cruise for three
thousand dollars a person or up.
Speaker 2 (02:01:38):
It's too long? How about that? That's too long?
Speaker 8 (02:01:42):
But when you think about saying, is if you're gonna
fly out and go up the coast, you're not going
to do it on a long weekend.
Speaker 2 (02:01:48):
No, but the twelve days a long time. Seven days? Seven?
Speaker 8 (02:01:51):
Oh, I think you said twelve. No, no, no, there
are a bunch of different ones. I'm asking you seven days. Fine,
seven's better. I could do seven days. Okay, days though
for three grand isn't terrible. What about because they have
the option you can take a cruise seventeen or more days. No,
because my question is, how the hell do you squeeze
seventeen days out of the Alaskan coast?
Speaker 2 (02:02:13):
Well, probably you're probably doing a lot of stuff. You're
sitting a lot of times at the portocol a twenty
eight day Arctic circle solstice. That's probably badass.
Speaker 8 (02:02:24):
You leave from Seattle, you go up the coast, you
going back down, You go to Anchorage and know them,
and you're the Dutch harbor.
Speaker 2 (02:02:30):
See that's probably cool as hell when you think about it,
you're Dutch harbor. But aren't you gonna see the same
polar bears? Well, then it goes beyond the polar bears
at that point. Now you're now you're seeing crab fisherman.
Oh that's what it is.
Speaker 11 (02:02:42):
Yeah, you gate wave to the guys from the Deadliest Catch.
You're rolling up there at Dutch Harbor, right, Yeah, you're
on the cruise. It's cold out. Yeah yeah, yeah, you
go outside, you look up. When you're on those cruises,
you're not out there to be warm. And you know
we're saying so you'd get a tan.
Speaker 2 (02:02:58):
Yeah.
Speaker 11 (02:02:59):
No, listen, people swear the Northern Lights and people who
are on them. Yeah, oh yeah, I got that's someday
for sure. I just I don't know if I could
do more than a week end.
Speaker 8 (02:03:08):
I mean there's the seventeen day Dnali and Yukon where
you go way inland. All right, there's there's the cruise,
but then you're like part of its flying. You got
like the train. That's a whole thing.
Speaker 2 (02:03:20):
But don't you think it is like fifty five hundred
bucks a person rop enough's enough at a certain point though, Yeah,
you know what I mean, Like that's to go home. Oh,
I mean a week anywhere, it doesn't matter where I am.
I don't I've never been on a vacation in my
life where after a week's time, I wasn't like, all right,
I'm good, Yeah, time to get out of here. It's
time to go. Yeah.
Speaker 11 (02:03:39):
You know, I've I've never people I hear going to
I could stay here forever. I've never had that feeling
in my life.
Speaker 2 (02:03:48):
Well, because no matter where you are, well, no, no
matter where you go, there you are.
Speaker 1 (02:03:54):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (02:03:55):
A panel appeared on the window sill with a circle out.
Oh what a side.
Speaker 10 (02:04:02):
The mystery grew in the fading line, snowflake's full whispers grow?
Speaker 2 (02:04:10):
What's behind that panel's glow? That's the glory?
Speaker 6 (02:04:18):
What could it be?
Speaker 2 (02:04:20):
A portal to joy or a mystery?
Speaker 5 (02:04:24):
Jingle?
Speaker 19 (02:04:24):
Bells ring as the stories roll of Cleveland's own Festa.
Speaker 2 (02:04:31):
Glory.
Speaker 8 (02:04:33):
I imagine zero people will be surprised when I tell
you that Magic has yet to play this song.
Speaker 2 (02:04:39):
Rob you asked about it, yes, yeah, of course numerous
times and listen. And I can't exactly blame them. They
do have an image to protect.
Speaker 8 (02:04:46):
However, their promos very specifically say like classics and modern
and then it says it refers to like novelty songs
or you know, I did get a great photo though,
from a listener, and I will keep this person anonymous
for obvious reasons, but I'll show you the photo and
the live stream. Working on a friend's house. And the
(02:05:15):
former owners were a gay couple from way back in
the day, and they have a glory hole in their
basement bathroom. I'll show you the photo here.
Speaker 2 (02:05:29):
Look at this.
Speaker 8 (02:05:30):
There's a giant so there's the toilet up against the wall,
and then there's like a saloon door right that would
go in front of it. And there is a giant
hole cut in the swinging stall door there, and there's
a sticker above it that says warning mature content.
Speaker 2 (02:05:47):
Boy.
Speaker 4 (02:05:47):
That is it?
Speaker 2 (02:05:48):
Do you put that in the Zillow listing? Is what
I want to know. That's sharp. No, you shoot around that,
see because there's a you mean you take shit? You
take photos around it.
Speaker 8 (02:06:05):
You don't want to show them the honcho stickers that
are all over the back of the door. No, all right,
pony Boy magazine stacked up.
Speaker 2 (02:06:14):
I mean, what do you do? Actually, if you're going
to sell that, you get rid of the door, right,
you replace the door? Yeah?
Speaker 8 (02:06:19):
I think so, I imagine that. Yeah, the new owners
thought it was hilarious and so for now they're keeping that.
I mean, it is a conversation piece, right if you're
the new owners of the home and you are making
a variety of changes, but you're also you know what
comes with the home ownership or whatever. You might have
people over and you're showing them the new digs or whatever,
(02:06:39):
and you're like, hey, and check this out here.
Speaker 2 (02:06:43):
Someone's using that bathroom, and all of a sudden someone
takes it literally.
Speaker 8 (02:06:45):
Just I would like to send these people and Alan
Cox show sticker for that door, yes, right above it
under well, there's already a stick of the mature content.
Speaker 2 (02:06:55):
Sticker is already above it. I would like to send
them a sticker or below it below below yeahlow low.
And then but again, I only know the person who
sent me this. I don't know the actual owners of
the house. But that's great. What an added value. Everybody's
looking for added value.
Speaker 8 (02:07:16):
You know, the housing market couldn't be more cutthroat, rob
and so there, you know, every opportunity you have to
have the competitive edge is good.
Speaker 2 (02:07:27):
I'm I'm doing a ton of little things right now
to put it on the market. Uh huh.
Speaker 11 (02:07:33):
And that sucks too, man, I hate putting money into
the house. Like I'm just hoping every dollar I spend
is coming back, you.
Speaker 6 (02:07:39):
Know, right.
Speaker 2 (02:07:40):
But it's dumb stuff. Cosmetic stuff, yeah, little just nitpicky
things that I know. So I don't like the way
that looks. So I'm just gonna do it, okay, like
we did. I painted that Melissa, I say, Melissa painted
the stairs to the basement. But those.
Speaker 11 (02:07:57):
Tiles, the square, the carpet thing for the steps. Ye
bought those things like that. Putting up a railing here
and there, finishing off a room. Just here, sand done,
shut up by it, Get me out, little tweaks away
from these goddamn ducks. Is the alter ego do those
go to?
Speaker 2 (02:08:17):
Is that a text thing? Yeah?
Speaker 11 (02:08:19):
All right, people are telling me them work. Well, so
here's the thing. I got the same complaints yesterday. It
does work. That is the right code.
Speaker 2 (02:08:27):
There was checked it and those there was an issue
with the outage, cloud flare or whatever.
Speaker 11 (02:08:32):
Yes, so there's no bounce backs because something went down
yesterday and you're not getting the bounce you're not getting
thank you. We'll let you know if you're a winner,
you're not getting those.
Speaker 2 (02:08:43):
So it is working. You're just not getting bounced back message.
Speaker 8 (02:08:46):
Gotcha, okay, So rest assured if you are playing along
trying to win that trip, they are getting your text.
Speaker 2 (02:08:52):
And also our buzz remedy has been fixed.
Speaker 11 (02:08:57):
I was told last night the the sound in the
background that people were bitching about is gone.
Speaker 2 (02:09:05):
These guys worked on it late last night.
Speaker 11 (02:09:07):
It was just it was I don't know, okay, I'll
explain it to you later, because it's it's kind of
a little more than you would care about or the
average person would care about. But basically, we use crap equipment,
and crap equipment fails, and that's what happened.
Speaker 2 (02:09:26):
So they fixed what they think it was. So if
you still have a buzz, let me know. But if
you took the time to send the email yesterday, thank you,
because I got a lot of them and I passed
them all on and that's what they came up with.
So it sounds.
Speaker 11 (02:09:39):
I listened this morning, I drive in and I had
it really loud and there was no noise, so there
should be plenty of floor there now.
Speaker 8 (02:09:47):
Okay, good, And then the text rest assured, we are
getting them. You're just not getting the confirmation correct. Getting
the confirmation correct, Alan, I drove fifteen hours eight from
Cleveland to Cleveland from Sioux Falls, and I filled three
gatorade bottles.
Speaker 11 (02:10:09):
I've never, like I said, pulled over. That was the
or when I was waiting for the tow trucks, the
only time I ever had to do it.
Speaker 2 (02:10:15):
Have you ever done it? No trucker bomb, I have not.
Speaker 4 (02:10:19):
No.
Speaker 8 (02:10:20):
I will find I will regulate my water intake, and
I will find a wrist stick.
Speaker 2 (02:10:24):
I can tell you one thing. Nobody uses milk cartons.
Speaker 8 (02:10:28):
Well, you know what though, people are telling me that.
You know, when you say milk carton, people are thinking
the cardboard.
Speaker 2 (02:10:34):
Have you seen me lately from the jug? Jug? Plastic?
Speaker 8 (02:10:38):
So maybe that's the distinction that Dustin was trying to
make pissed jug as opposed to a pea carton. Correct, Alan,
I am a mail carrier. I'm a male lady in Akron.
You wouldn't believe how many milk jugs and water jugs
and mountain new bottles are strewn all over the mail
trucks when I get in them from the men who
(02:11:01):
don't want to drive to a bathroom. So her male
colleagues are filling the USPS truck up that she grabs
the next day with trucker.
Speaker 2 (02:11:09):
Bombs, animals put he in usps W m MS Rob
on social media.
Speaker 11 (02:11:17):
Hell's the matter with you at the end of the day,
Like you know that somebody else is gonna drive that
thing tomorrow and and when you take it with you
take it with you, your dirty bastard.
Speaker 2 (02:11:27):
Why would you leave that for someone, especially a woman? Comeback,
Jesus off, little crash, Come one. What I like to do?
Speaker 13 (02:11:41):
Peepee poo, peepee, poo, poo poo, I like to do
poo poo, pepe poo, poo, poo, pee pee poo, poo,
pee pee, pee, pee poo, poo, poo, oh, peepee.
Speaker 6 (02:11:50):
What I like to do?
Speaker 3 (02:11:51):
Pee pee poo, peepee, poo, poo pooh.
Speaker 15 (02:11:53):
I like to doo too, poo poo, peep, pe poo.
Speaker 2 (02:11:56):
The Car Show on one hundred point. It seems a
little unfair that you can watch our live stream but
we can't see you. But we'll fix that tonight. Outside
your window.
Speaker 19 (02:12:18):
Show on seven doublemms. Hey, congrats to Laura.
Speaker 8 (02:12:33):
Laura Sayer maybe is her name out in Amherst got
the first pair of tickets this week for Motley Crue.
They're playing next to August celebrating forty five years as
a band. They're going to be at Blossom Extreme and
Tesla or with them. I think Tesla is gonna be
her twice in the next year. Yeah, they're coming in February, right, Yeah,
the mgm Artfield Parker. So if you're a Tesla fan,
(02:12:54):
it's an embarrassment of riches.
Speaker 2 (02:12:56):
With the great live Tesla. Have you ever seen them?
Oh hundred years ago? Like that first tour, I saw
a really good band. And yeah, Jeff Keith nuttier than squirrelpoo,
but y old boy is he is? He could still
sing then guys ninety pounds soaking wet. Yeah.
Speaker 8 (02:13:11):
Yeah, they're from California. He has in Tesla, West Coast
bands something like that anyway, Motley Crue, Tesla in Extreme
from Boston. Uh, Gary Cheron still from Extreme, yeah all right?
And Nude Old Betton Court all right, Nuno Betencourt.
Speaker 2 (02:13:29):
Yeah, that's Extreme those guys, I tell you, bro, If
if there was no other bands around that time, those
dudes would have been the best band out there. I
wonder why Extreme wasn't bigger, Like more than Words was
their big song, what they had wholehearted, they had get
(02:13:50):
the funk out.
Speaker 8 (02:13:51):
Yeah, Nuno Bettencourt is an unbelievable guitar. Unbel I wonder
why extreme. I mean, they kind of had their moment,
But is it because Sharon went to Van Halen. No, Okay,
that was after like all that, right, Yeah, I think
that they were just they were on that b level
of what those bands were at that time.
Speaker 2 (02:14:11):
I wonder why.
Speaker 11 (02:14:12):
I think it just sometimes luck, right, like they were
obviously much better than a lot of those other bands.
Speaker 17 (02:14:17):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (02:14:19):
But and frankly, you don't meet a lot of Nuno's
no hell over the top way, dude, trust me, I've
had a million of that conversation about that band over
the year. People. Dude, my cousin, I swear to god, Dude,
my cousin's first uh first grade teacher was Nudo Beton
(02:14:41):
caught second cousin's best friend back to like the Sister
Wives cousins conversation. Yeah, yeah, yeah. He came in one day, dude,
and he did show and tell with the kids and
he brought in h Gary Sharona. They played more than
words in front of the whole class and it was
freaking killer. Wow.
Speaker 8 (02:14:58):
Yeah, Nuno Bettencourt was Portuguese, though he wasn't from Boston.
Speaker 11 (02:15:04):
Oh yeah, yeah, yeah, Okay, he's Portuguese, but I don't
think he's like I mean, so are you? Yeah yeah,
but I don't think. Maybe maybe he is. I could
be wrong, but I know they're of that area. Yeah,
of Boston kid.
Speaker 2 (02:15:19):
Huh.
Speaker 8 (02:15:20):
Google questions is Nuno Betancourt considered a good guitarist, and
Google says yes, Nuno Betancurt is widely considered a very good,
if not great, guitarist. Ouch, what do you know, Google? Yeah,
you couldn't do you pick up a guitar and try
to play AI.
Speaker 11 (02:15:38):
Wow J Dix. Yeah, Now you got me wondering. I
know he's Portuguese obviously, but he's American and he's right.
Speaker 2 (02:15:47):
I don't know. I know they're a Boston band. I
didn't know if they were all from Boston.
Speaker 8 (02:15:51):
I think maybe he was born because because it was
Gary Sharon and the drummer who started Extreme and.
Speaker 2 (02:15:58):
He was born in Portugal, moved to the United States
when he was four. All right, there you go, all right,
well and any rock Boston his entire life. Dude, he's
still there. Let's hope his visa's up to date. He
still bangs around Boston some Every once in a while
he'll show up, MOMMI can and play over there.
Speaker 8 (02:16:17):
He's probably like Regional Royalty, isn't he? Oh yeah, like
he could nudo Bettencourka Walker on Boston. Everybody knows Gary Charon,
same thing. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah yeah.
Speaker 2 (02:16:26):
Those kids are a big deal.
Speaker 8 (02:16:27):
Anyway, I will have those Motley Crue tickets for you
all this week. It is for next August. They are
not on sale until Friday morning. Some people are curious why,
and I guess just because the calendar showed up.
Speaker 1 (02:16:39):
Why.
Speaker 8 (02:16:39):
They're celebrating forty years of Theater of Pain, which is
widely kind of considered when Motley Crue kind of went
off the rails.
Speaker 2 (02:16:49):
Compared to the first few albums they did. Theater of
Pain was kind of a flaccid departure, if you will.
And there's a lot of stuff going on in the
band right then, right, it's something. It is celebrating the
chaos of Motley Crue.
Speaker 8 (02:17:04):
I think is yes, so, but I mean Theater of
Pain is when I bailed off Motley Crue. Now few
years later they come back with Doctor Feel Good, and
you were like, oh, these guys are you know, they're
kind of back to doing whatever they're doing.
Speaker 2 (02:17:15):
But my Corey.
Speaker 11 (02:17:17):
I text him in the break and I'm like, when
are you talking to Nikky? He goes, I recorded it,
and he said, I'm going to play it back throughout
the night. He said, I'll play the first one after
you guys get off, and then play him throughout the night.
Speaker 4 (02:17:28):
Oh.
Speaker 2 (02:17:28):
I talk to him about everything. He's like, it was
a dream come true. Yeah. Of course.
Speaker 8 (02:17:33):
Last time I had Nicky six on this show was
on Saint Patrick's Day and I was half in the bag.
This was over ten years ago and we were playing
at radio show he did called six Cents. Oh yeah,
and my friend Carrie Kayseum was his first co host,
Casey Kaysum's daughter. And when I was out doing meeting
(02:17:54):
with some premier people of this syndication arm of this Country,
a company many years ago, they were walking me through
their studios because I was going to be doing some
national fill ins and they go and this is Nicky
Six's studio and I'm like, yeah, but the guy's never
in here, He's never seen this studio.
Speaker 10 (02:18:11):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (02:18:11):
I was like, it was like this palatial, goth decorated studio.
Speaker 8 (02:18:16):
I mean it looked awesome. I was like, sinse Yeah,
I'm like, can I do my show from in here?
Speaker 13 (02:18:23):
Oh?
Speaker 2 (02:18:23):
It's great.
Speaker 11 (02:18:24):
That show was good for like the first year it
was on, because it was the first time you heard
those Nicky stories.
Speaker 8 (02:18:31):
The stories are great. I just I was always thrown off.
I did not care for his speaking voice. No, but
I love it sounds really petty. But I don't mean
it like that.
Speaker 11 (02:18:41):
Like when he would get into like the stuff they
were doing on the road. Yeah, I loved that. But
then you like, there's only so many of those stories
that you could hear, and you're like, okay, let me
guess Nikki in this version you did a boatload a
blow well and then went to the troubadoor Okay.
Speaker 2 (02:19:01):
Cool. I mean it's also just with the passage of time,
so many people were hip to those stories.
Speaker 8 (02:19:06):
So like, not his fault, you know what, I mean,
He's gonna tell his stories. But anyway, Yeah, so okay.
Speaker 2 (02:19:13):
So Nicky six with Corey Roddick tonight on the Buzzer
talking about Motley Crue, the forty fifth anniversary, the band,
forty years of theater Payne. You know what else is
celebrating forty years today exactly. Calvin and Hobbes. Oh, I'm
a big greatest cartoon comic strip ever. Now it's number
(02:19:34):
two for me. I'm a Bloom County man. But Calvin
and Hobbes, which began, I think right here in Cleveland, Ohio.
Bill Watterson, who still lives out here. Really yeah, he
is from I think he lives in Cleveland Heights. Oh,
I didn't know that.
Speaker 8 (02:19:48):
He grew up in Chagrin Falls, and I think he
began the whole thing here. And this is a guy
who like got to the point as big as Calvin
and Hobbes was got to the point where he's like,
I don't know that I have any more stories to tell,
and he bailed, he like Dave Chappelle did, out of there.
Speaker 2 (02:20:06):
And he could have kept going.
Speaker 8 (02:20:07):
I mean, Calvin and Hobbes back in the day, you know,
a syndicated comic strip, yep.
Speaker 2 (02:20:12):
And it only ran I think for like a decade. So,
but the books and the thing I have the book
it had a real.
Speaker 8 (02:20:20):
Ten years to me does not seem like a long
time when you have these friggin strips that have been
around forever. But it had such an outsized influence. I
think in pop culture, when you think of like prominent
comic strips, you might you do have to be a
gen x er to remember bloom County, But a lot
of people remember the Far Side and Calvin and Hobbs.
Speaker 2 (02:20:41):
Launching.
Speaker 8 (02:20:42):
By the way, I can't imagine that the guy would
have ever foreseen a time where an iconic character of
his would be used primarily to pee on other people's
automobile logos. Yeah, always dumb, kind of make you feel
good in the parking lot every day. Take it a
whiz on a on a Michigan side or logo. Yeah, anything, right,
(02:21:05):
anything anything you don't like? Uh, there's uh, there's the
kid peeing on it. Calvin is the kid. Hobbes was
his stuffed tiger. It's still one of my favorite, uh
strips ever. I had it on my desk for a
long long time.
Speaker 2 (02:21:26):
I mean, I think it probably is like the last
great comic strip, right, I think so?
Speaker 11 (02:21:34):
Yeah, I mean what was I don't read them anymore,
so I guess I don't know, but maybe there's something great.
Speaker 8 (02:21:39):
I mean, back in the day everybody had like Beetle
Bailey and all the crap I'm talking about like gen
X comic strips. Right, we have bloom County, we had
Calvin and Hobbes, we had Blondie, some people like Dilbert.
Dilbert not so much. Yeah, that was the family circus
was around forever. Piscattian meat bulbs. My mom always had
(02:22:01):
a family circus circle cutting. I cut out because they
were they were in a circle. Family circus cut out
and magneted to the fridge. But yeah, Bill Watterson, I
think is still out in this part of the country.
Speaker 11 (02:22:16):
I had no idea. Yeah I would have. I'll start
carrying my book around if I ever bump into him.
Speaker 2 (02:22:21):
You should.
Speaker 11 (02:22:22):
But there was a there was one in particular where
he goes outside, he puts his mittens on and stuff.
So like the first shot is him getting all bundled
up and he walks outside and he makes this face,
and then the third slide is like a different angle
of the face, like his noses crunched up, and then
the next one is the exact same thing, and the
final one and he's just him looking at the at
(02:22:43):
what would be the camera and he says, don't you
hate it when your booger's freeze? And it's the dumbest
thing in the world, but it made me laugh. I
had it on my desk for years. Yeah, oh I
loved it.
Speaker 13 (02:22:53):
No.
Speaker 8 (02:22:53):
I think he's a guy who pieced out and then
kind of did a JD.
Speaker 2 (02:22:58):
Salinger. I don't know that anybody.
Speaker 8 (02:23:01):
He's still live, but he like, you know, mid nineties,
So Calvin Hobbs has been gone for thirty years. He
was like, I'm done, thank you so much for your
support and blah blah blah. But I've done what I
wanted to do and that's it. He's not a guy
that you ever see show up on anything.
Speaker 10 (02:23:20):
You know.
Speaker 8 (02:23:20):
I'm sure plenty of people would love to talk to
the guy. I want you find it here, let me
find it here and just typing Calvin and Hobbs boogers.
It's him walking off the step and then his no
frozen boogers there it is all right, Yeah, that's he
walks off a step. Yeah, makes a face, covers his
(02:23:44):
face with his mittens. Don't you hate it when your
booger's freeze?
Speaker 11 (02:23:47):
But that face, just that second slide, it's just so great.
And this is the time of year when it starts
to happen. Yeah, frozen bugs, Frozen bugs. Hellan, what about
Marma Duke.
Speaker 8 (02:24:05):
I remember mar You know, when I was a kid,
I was drawing all the time, like a thousand other kids.
Speaker 2 (02:24:10):
I thought I wanted to be an artist. And I
did draw for a long long time.
Speaker 8 (02:24:14):
And so when I was a kid, my parents every
Birthday and Christmas they were buying me books on how
to draw, and so some of them were like how
to draw your favorite cartoon characters. Then I got to
the point where they were buying me anatomy books because
I was getting into much more detailed drawing. Now, I
said that I was interested in drawing much longer than
(02:24:35):
I actually was interested in drawing, because the anatomy books
had naked people in them. Yeah, and so I went
study with those books, probably for a good year when
I was eleven. But yeah, but it would teach you
how to draw like the human form and all that,
you know, but you start out with how to draw
Popeye and Superman. And so Marma Duke was in that
(02:24:56):
first how to draw your you know, your comic strips,
oh Bailey, And that's probably still somewhere in my mom's house,
that first drawing book that I had I'm trying to
think of what other comic strips Stephen Kin says, Rex Morgan,
m d Yeah, Maryworth, but Mary Worth.
Speaker 2 (02:25:18):
I remember was it Dagwood or was it Blondie. It
was Blondie, right, Dagwood was Blondie's husband, right, but the
comic the strip was called Blondie, right, Yes, Okay, let's
see Garfield.
Speaker 8 (02:25:30):
I was way in a Garfield is like a junior
high kid or middle school round days.
Speaker 10 (02:25:35):
Right.
Speaker 8 (02:25:36):
Loved Garfield because I liked those clean lines. Again, this
is when I was drawing a lot of like cartoon characters.
I was trying to create my own cartoon characters, and
those Garfield as Jim Davis clean Garfield lines.
Speaker 2 (02:25:49):
I loved it. Oh, the Far Side Doonesbury was another one.
Speaker 6 (02:25:52):
I liked.
Speaker 2 (02:25:52):
Your Side was great far Side when you grew up
a little bit, you kind of once you started Duonsbury
was the one.
Speaker 8 (02:25:58):
I remember that, like the first one that was like
adult themed, like it maybe laugh. And then it was
far Side Books. And then bloom County loved bloom County, BC.
Speaker 11 (02:26:09):
I remember too. You remember that one Caveman? Yeah, yeah,
I forgot about that too. I'm just scrolling through the
Hagar the Horrible for better or worse? That was the
married Yeah, that was the family. What was the one
with the remember the lockhorns? That was the guy and
his wife that were always yelling at each other. There
was Kathy remember ak Yeah? Yeah, yeah's white wrote Kathy.
(02:26:31):
And then there was one called the Lockhorns that I remember.
Speaker 2 (02:26:34):
Get it because they lock horns all the time because
they're always fighting.
Speaker 11 (02:26:38):
Uh huh, mother Goose and Grim remember that one. No,
that was a big one. I loved that one.
Speaker 2 (02:26:46):
No, but the Lockhorns Hot. Why was she with Dagwood? God?
Speaker 8 (02:26:54):
Because I think she saw something in him Rob. She
liked the way he made sandwiches. He saw something in
her too. Uh yeah, yeah, Mutts don't know that, did
you shoot?
Speaker 2 (02:27:09):
That was a bird?
Speaker 10 (02:27:10):
Right?
Speaker 4 (02:27:10):
Yeah?
Speaker 2 (02:27:11):
I remember that.
Speaker 8 (02:27:12):
I remember when the Boone Docks showed up. That would
have been like late nineties, the Boon Docks, And that
was a big deal because there were no black characters
by and large, there were no comic strips devoted to
like black characters, and so that was a bigger deal.
I was always so fascinated in the story people could
tell in four, three or four panels, that is real.
(02:27:33):
You know, Editing is always your best friend in anything
you're writing. But to be able to tell a story
in that short period of time was fascinating to me.
Hi and Lois remember that one vaguely? That was another
family one.
Speaker 2 (02:27:47):
Yeah, I remember the name Handy Capp.
Speaker 8 (02:27:50):
I remember when the Chicago Tribune was running Life in Hell.
That was the first Matt Groening comic strip, remember late eighties,
before the Simpsons, before Tracey Yellman show. His strip was
called Light in Hell. That was the precursor of Simpsons.
Speaker 2 (02:28:02):
I remember when they were running that Heath Cliff. Oh,
there's a bunch I forgot. Cliff is a Maarfield. Yeah.
So anyway, there were you know, crank Shaft. Huh, crank shaft?
You remember that one? Not right now?
Speaker 6 (02:28:18):
Oh?
Speaker 2 (02:28:21):
Can I wait till the show's overplace bombarrassing? Oh my
good god, it didn't just start. Oh now.
Speaker 8 (02:28:28):
Anyway, forty years to day, Calvin and Hobbes premiered from
Northeast Ohio.
Speaker 2 (02:28:35):
No thank you, no thank you? And so yeah.
Speaker 8 (02:28:40):
So if Bill Waterson, if he's still around, you know,
he's nothing if not reclusive.
Speaker 2 (02:28:45):
They're probably people locally who know the guy.
Speaker 15 (02:28:47):
You know.
Speaker 2 (02:28:48):
Oh, that guy's we neighbor, you know, like your Nuno
Bettancourt story. Yeah, it was my friend's second grade teacher.
It was an honest he drew Calvin and Hobbes. Dude,

Calvin and Hobbes? You mean the first this conversation? It's okay.
(02:29:11):
The guy who wrote Funky winker Bean it was from Akron.
All right, well there you go.
Speaker 11 (02:29:17):
Do you think originally they had to change the name.
You think it was Wonky flicker Bean and they're like, well,
wait a minute, we should change this.
Speaker 8 (02:29:26):
We're gonna get sued by PJ. Flickerstick there with the
Detroit Pistons. We can't put this out there.
Speaker 2 (02:29:33):
HQ. Torkin Flurk is gonna sick.
Speaker 8 (02:29:36):
His cadre of lawyers on us Alan High and Lois

Speaker 8 (02:30:05):
His name was I don't know. I don't know if
they ever mentioned it. He was in the army and
hold golly, he never wanted to do anything.

Brigadier General Amos T. Halftrack, and of course Miss Bucksley,

All right, anyway, what a fun trip down memory lane.
(02:30:49):
But Bill Watterson from Northeast Ohio forty years of Calvin
and Hobbes. Today Booger's Freezing and all Love.
Speaker 2 (02:30:59):
Car show on one call the Alan Cock Show. Where's
the best place in America to meet single girls and guys?
Two six one.
Speaker 15 (02:31:12):
Seven, three four eight one double O seven more where
this came from? On Saturday night we do a metal
show on the buzzard. It's called two Hours to Midnight.
Starts at ten o'clock.
Speaker 8 (02:31:31):
Me and Corens Roddick and one Patrick Butler put our
heads together week to week and come up with what
we hope you, as a Northeast Ohio metal fan, will
love a lot of new stuff, a lot of throwback,
some metal locally as well, band called Psycho Plantations, Local
destructor going way back as local new music from of
(02:31:54):
Sulfur who sound like they should be from Finland, but
it's a deathcore band from Vegas. Play some motorheads, some
a lot of throwbacks, a lot of new stuff. It's
a ton of fun.
Speaker 2 (02:32:07):
So if you're into metal and nothing but then you
should join us on Saturday for two hours to midnight.
Right here on the buzzard, you saw Daniel Tosh is
going on tour and coming to Cleveland, coming to Akron.
Speaker 8 (02:32:22):
I should say it's not coming to Cleveland. I want
to go see Daniel Tosh, who I was in the
impression hadn't toured in a while. He's been doing this podcast,
but I guess somebody said he toured last year.
Speaker 2 (02:32:31):
Did you see the name of the tour My first farewell,
my first bell farewell tour. Yeah, that's so good.
Speaker 8 (02:32:38):
Although one of the graphics that I saw it didn't
have an E in it, so the graphic was my
first farewell. Oh, they might want to double check that,
but the tickets and there's like artists pre sales and
all that crap, but the general on sale is Friday
morning at ten o'clock. You'll be able to go livenation
dot com. He will do the Akron Civic Theater on Thursday,
April the second, And Yeah, I think Tash is very funny.
(02:33:06):
Same back in the day, he didn't really I saw
him one time when he was still doing the clubs
like twenty years ago, and he kind of didn't feel
like he was there yet for me, which was a
me problem, not a him problem. But I think he's
very very funny, very funny. So Daniel Tosh weird Al
(02:33:26):
is going back out.
Speaker 2 (02:33:29):
I'm still mad at myself for missing that. I had
no excuse and I just didn't go.
Speaker 11 (02:33:33):
It's like even tonight, Like I'm going to the show
tonight and I'm like, how are you going to Mammoth?
Speaker 2 (02:33:39):
Yeah? Yeah, over at the Agora.
Speaker 11 (02:33:41):
Yeah in the head there right when I get out
of here, and I'm I'm I'm in that window for
me where I'm like, I'm just going to go home.
Speaker 2 (02:33:48):
I don't want to go.
Speaker 11 (02:33:49):
I want to go obviously more than anything, but I
don't like doing anything. So I'm like trying to hype
myself up to go. You get a rally, and I should.
I'm pissed at myself for missing that weird AWL show.
You were away, you had something going on. I was
in Austin. I think I forget what it was, and
he had something or was it was it Polke's wedding?
Speaker 2 (02:34:08):
Maybe? Oh yeah, I think you're right. I think it
was that, and I was just I was just home, like,
no excuse, right, stupid. Well, there's still time for you
to see him. Yes, is he coming back through here?
Speaker 8 (02:34:27):
He is, I believe, So don't quote me on that,
but yeah, the weird the tour is still called like
bitter and Twisted or what's it called, oh, bigger and weirder.
He's announced to a ninety date twenty twenty six tour.
Speaker 2 (02:34:47):
Wow.
Speaker 8 (02:34:47):
They did seventy five shows last year, and so he's
basically going everywhere in the Union. He's going to play
all the little towns and some of the big towns.
Some of them will be Yeah, Lousville, Eerie gonna play.
He's coming up pe Pack, dude, that's my favorite theater.
(02:35:10):
I guess maybe you'll have to go to Columbus or Pittsburgh.
It doesn't look like he's coming back to Cleveland.
Speaker 2 (02:35:16):
Yeah, I don't know where these I don't know where
these places in Pennsylvania are.
Speaker 8 (02:35:19):
He's doing Toledo next October. I mean the whole tour
goes May through October. So it's a lot of dates,
but you'll have to travel from here. You can go
to Chicago, Grand Rapids, Winds or Ontario, but that's basically Detroit,
Niagara Falls.
Speaker 11 (02:35:38):
Where are those places in PA? Did you see the
Eary PA? No, it was Burgotstown. That is suburban Pittsburgh.
That's like their blossom. Starlake is like Pittsburgh's blossom.
Speaker 2 (02:35:49):
So that's a couple hours too.
Speaker 8 (02:35:51):
Then, yes, yep, burgots Down is Pittsburgh Bethlehem, PA. That's
further into the state. So anyway, a lot. He's playing
TBA on September the third. That's the Tallahassee Bank Arena,
I believe Rob, if I'm not mistaken, that sounds right,
and some state fairs too. That's the Columbus date. I
(02:36:14):
love that there's there's such a TBA on a date.
Did you see July twenty fifth? No venue TBA City,
TBA but you can buy tickets. Yeah, that's great. Well,
it's like when they announce these festivals and everybody buys
the tickets before they even know what the lineup is.
Speaker 2 (02:36:32):
At least this, you know, it's weird Al.
Speaker 8 (02:36:34):
You know, hey, get your everybody buys Sonic Temple tickets
or Incarceration before they even announce who the bands are.
Speaker 2 (02:36:40):
Same thing on September twenty third Venue, TBA, City, TBA. Yeah.
So next summer you can see weird Al at the
Ohio State Fair. I have to go. That's going to
probably be too much for me go into it. I
mean at the fair on top of it. Oh no, no, no, no,
I gotta go to a theater or something somewhere. You
don't want to go see weird Al at a state fair? No,
(02:37:00):
really no, I don't want to go to a state fair.
Speaker 8 (02:37:03):
Yeah, but state fairs are ah now, I haven't been
to one, and I couldn't in decades, but they kind
of have grown up a little, right state fars. No,
I mean it's twenty twenty five, SAME's yeah, but it's
not like dusty paths in people eating like corn dough.
Every year we go over the Goofy Fair foods that
(02:37:25):
all these states are doing, and it's like these massive
you know, it's like going to the ballpark.
Speaker 11 (02:37:30):
Yeah no, it's not dusty paths. It's concrete or pavement
and people eating gross corn dogs. That's there's no difference.
Speaker 2 (02:37:37):
Rob to say, there's no such thing as a gross
corn doing. If you're going to this, you can buy
the sham. Wow. Yeah, that's fun. Look at the knives
on display. Now.
Speaker 8 (02:37:47):
I don't really want to go to Columbus to do that. No, no, no,
but that's where the state fair is no. July twenty
ninth through. Now, if you go to the Ohio State
Fair website, the first giant banner you see is weird
Al because that's where yeah, bigger and weirder coming to
the fair.
Speaker 6 (02:38:04):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (02:38:04):
I just can't do it.
Speaker 11 (02:38:05):
My days of state fairs long over. We have you
the Rhode Island state Fairs that there was never so
we would do it, All of New England would do
it together. It was in West Springfield, Massachusetts, called the
Big Ee million people every year, humongous crowds. It was
seventeen days long and I would have to work every
(02:38:25):
single one of the days because we'd broadcast live from it.
Speaker 2 (02:38:28):
Oh, I see.
Speaker 11 (02:38:29):
So from the seventeen until my thirties, I was at
a state fair every single day.
Speaker 2 (02:38:37):
Well the same yeah, okay, Yeah, I didn't know any
of the scooters they had no business being in, but
God forbid they should walk. So you have a visceral distaste.
Speaker 11 (02:38:48):
I just don't like, I don't lay that, Okay, it's
just not for me. I don't love crowds, and I don't.
Speaker 2 (02:38:53):
Because to me, like it used to be.
Speaker 8 (02:38:54):
What I recall when I was younger is state fairs
were like you know, a local acedc cover band or something,
and now they get like big acts, yeah, play in
state fares.
Speaker 11 (02:39:05):
But then that's the thing though, is that like that
Weird al show is not going to be a free show,
you know what I mean, Like you're gonna have to
go to the State Pace and then you got to
pay to see it.
Speaker 2 (02:39:12):
Yeah, you know they have the free stages or whatever.
That's where you'll see I mean, you're gonna have people
going just to see Weird Al Oh for sure. Yeah,
you buy a ticket to the to the fair and
then you get to go see Now, Rob, here's the
best part. July twenty ninth through August ninth next year,
the Ohio State Fair down there in Columbus. And you
go to their website and it's and again this is hashag,
(02:39:33):
not an ad. We're just talking about weird Al announcing
all of his tour dates. Just so happens that the
one closest to us is going to be in Columbus.
And so they have you know, oh here the concerts,
except they don't have any listings yet.
Speaker 8 (02:39:47):
However, they do have a field for listen to the
Ohio State Fair podcast. Oh good, now, the Myheart production.
The podcast is called A Fair to Remember, which I'm
gonna give you that one. It was right there, sure,
But the Ohio State Fair Podcast, now I don't know
(02:40:11):
that it still exists.
Speaker 2 (02:40:13):
It was twenty eighteen to twenty twenty four. People can
go to the website and listen to the archival episodes.
Maybe they only do it for close to the event,
maybe so, but imagine doing that. You know, we're going
to tell you you, I don't know you sound like that,
(02:40:34):
sound like this. We're going to tell you all of
the unique Ohio State Fair stories. For this episode, we're
going to do art parts through a phone.
Speaker 8 (02:40:46):
Yeah, ah, Alan crabass. Clint Rattler is in full swing.
Is there anything Rob likes?
Speaker 2 (02:40:56):
What did I do? Now? Oh? The state fair thing?
Speaker 8 (02:40:58):
Well, but Rob earned I think he earned his derision
for state fairs. I mean, if you were there doing
a broadcast year after year and there's people walking what, Yeah,
that kind of thing.
Speaker 11 (02:41:09):
Yeah, I understand that. And this was back when radio
had people to help. I still had to do it
all by myself. I was there every morning to set
up until the end of my show, and then I'd
break down.
Speaker 2 (02:41:24):
It sucked.
Speaker 8 (02:41:26):
Dave, are you going to see weird al Yam?
Speaker 2 (02:41:31):
He's excited State Fair next summer?
Speaker 3 (02:41:37):
Yeah?
Speaker 2 (02:41:37):
Oh you telling me? Hey, listen, somebody.
Speaker 8 (02:41:44):
They were doing some survey of people, and they determined
that more people said that they would rather go to
a concert than have sex, which I think says more
about the state of people's sex lives than the state
of live entertainment. Live Nation did a big old survey
of people and seven out of ten said they would
pick a concert over sex. Now, if there is anything
(02:42:07):
as bad as dating, it's trying to get tickets for something. Yeah,
they'll seem like both equally laborious and terrible environments now
is getting tickets. I'm going to a metal show on
Friday night at the Globe Iron, and I got tickets
pretty early, right when they first announced the show was
(02:42:30):
going to happen. You go back there now and the
third party apps are trying to sell you tickets. A
GA ticket for this particular show, which again a metal show.
There's like four or five bands on it, right, but
these are not like household names outside of the genre.
GA tickets are one hundred and sixty four dollars, and
I'm like, who the f would buy these?
Speaker 2 (02:42:52):
How much? One hundred and sixty four dollars? Oh my god?
Speaker 8 (02:42:55):
If you go on the app and it tells you
right there, oh, these are third party sellers or whatever.
Speaker 2 (02:43:00):
You know, the apps scoop them all up and then
try to sell them back to you at three hundred
percent or whatever. I don't remember what I paid, but
it was probably like fifty bucks, which is still ridiculous,
but we're kind of used to it now, you know.
Speaker 8 (02:43:16):
But yeah, wow, one hundred and sixty four dollars. I
was like, well, anybody trying to buy them now is
going to be sorely disappointed because that's the price point
at which you have to determine how much do I
really like this band? And a lot of people have
to make that, you know, But more people in that
Live Nation survey said that they would rather go to
a concert than have sex.
Speaker 2 (02:43:38):
No thanks, and I love concerts, Uh not that much.
They asked forty thousand people to take this survey. You
think people answer honestly though, I mean, I don't surveys
like that. But that's not a situation. I think that
what you could be anonymous. Probably that to me is
not a situation where you would lie. You go, yeah,
I'd rather There's probably a lot of people I don't.
(02:43:59):
I don't think those results are skewed at all. They go, yeah,
I'd ratherly go to a concert that have sex. Some
people are really bad at sex, I guess, but that's
still better than any concert I've ever been to.
Speaker 8 (02:44:10):
They talked to forty thousand people between the ages of
eighteen and fifty four in fifteen countries, and that they
would they ranked sports events and movies and concerts above
sexual intercourse or int for you kids, Yeah.
Speaker 2 (02:44:30):
No, no, I don't see it. Even when it's bad,
it's good enough. One person said.
Speaker 8 (02:44:37):
The problem with sex is you show up hopeful of
being pleasantly surprised, and quite often you'll end up with
someone else's hair in your mouth. Yeah, but you could
say that just as much about it going on concert. Yeah,
I got that guy's hair in my mouth.
Speaker 2 (02:44:53):
You you know, you go to the uh.
Speaker 8 (02:44:56):
But as expensive as tickets are, it certainly doesn't seem
to be stopping people from going to concerts. I just
got especially since especially since sex is free, yeah, free,
relatively easy to get most cases.
Speaker 2 (02:45:12):
It's free. What do you mean that means sometimes your
sex isn't free.
Speaker 8 (02:45:17):
Well, I'm not talking about people who are paying for it,
you know what I mean. That's why people keep cranking
out kids.
Speaker 2 (02:45:21):
It's free sometimes, Like you know, we'll cost you a
little money too, you mean dinner, right?
Speaker 8 (02:45:27):
All right, Well, I'm just saying, like, you know, okay,
relatively cheap. And let's if you're going to go to
a show and your tickets are one hundred and fifty
bucks a pop, so you're already in for three hundred
and fees and you uber and whatever else, add the
tickets on.
Speaker 2 (02:45:44):
To the dinner.
Speaker 11 (02:45:47):
If you thought I wasn't excited to go to the
Calves game, and if I was teetering on doing anything
else upcoming, got a request from my oldest who's coming
home on Monday for the Thanksgiving holiday from Mount Union.
From Mount Union and she said, Dad, did you know
Maroon five is coming to uh the Rocket Arena? And
(02:46:10):
I said, yes, I did know that. She said, can
we go? And I said, sure?
Speaker 2 (02:46:19):
Who?
Speaker 9 (02:46:19):
God, please?
Speaker 2 (02:46:20):
No, absolutely no, what are you gonna go? Yeah? Of course?
Speaker 8 (02:46:24):
I mean I asked my nine year old when they
first announced that show, do you have because she likes
their music? Yeah, when they're on the radio, she bops
her head along and I go, do you have any
interest in seeing Maroon five?
Speaker 2 (02:46:35):
Nope? Yeah, no.
Speaker 11 (02:46:36):
I I was very surprised that she asked, So, I
guess I'm doing that Monday, next Monday Night.
Speaker 2 (02:46:43):
When that's then next week? Next week Monday, Yeah, Maroon five.
It's gonna be very very white down Monday Night. It
sure is, boy right, very very white in Cleveland.
Speaker 5 (02:46:58):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (02:47:02):
Yeah.
Speaker 8 (02:47:03):
And there's a black guy in Maroon five. Yeah, he
might be the only one in the arena on the stage. Yeah,
good chance. That's one of those bands I don't dislike.
I just would not go through a whole show with them.
Speaker 11 (02:47:17):
Well, yeah, I mean listen, I probably won't either, But
what it is, I'm down here and the three of
them are going to drive to meet me, so I
can leave, all right, what the hell I want?
Speaker 2 (02:47:26):
All right, Maroon five at the Rocket Arena. I don't
know who's opening for them.
Speaker 8 (02:47:31):
Claire rosen Krantz. Sorry, Claire rosen Krantz, all right, so
I still don't know who's open.
Speaker 2 (02:47:36):
She blew up on TikTok. That's how you get opening
uh spots. Now you're big on TikTok. Bring the kids out.
Speaker 8 (02:47:45):
So she was just like doing bedroom pop and blew
up on social media platforms, Claire Claire Rosenkrantz.
Speaker 2 (02:47:52):
Yeah, she's like nineteen twenty years old, and there she is. Yeah.
I don't think I've ever seen her on TikTok. I'm
not prize you haven't seen her. Yeah, I probably wouldn't
come up in my algorithm.
Speaker 11 (02:48:02):
Right, Nope, she's on I mean, she's on a major label,
so she's must she must be something.
Speaker 2 (02:48:08):
Yeah, she's on Republic Records.
Speaker 9 (02:48:11):
Jude.
Speaker 2 (02:48:11):
Yeah, Well, more people would rather have go to a
concert than have sex, especially when Adam Levine's on stage.
How about that guy. It's a dreamy set up a vision.
I'll tell you what. People give Adam Levine a hard time,
but he's a talented dude. Yeah, hell of a guitar player, right.
Speaker 8 (02:48:29):
And Maroon five is a band that started as kind
of more of like they kind of had.
Speaker 2 (02:48:33):
A hippie jam band vibe to him. Yeah, listen to
Harder to Breathe. Yeah, that was the first single. That's
a rock song. They were kind of doing blue eyed
soul back then too, and then they started doing real
glossy pop.
Speaker 11 (02:48:43):
I remember when that song came out. The guy that
I the program director that I worked for, wouldn't play
the song on our station. We were an adult contemporary,
hot adult contemporary station. He's like, that is a rock
song that belongs on a rock station. We will never
play that song. They've never touched it. Yeah, Harder to Breathe,
(02:49:05):
this is not it, No, this is misery. I was like,
this was definitely not their rock song. That's a good song, though, They're.
Speaker 2 (02:49:12):
Like, they're all good songs, you know what I mean?
By here them?
Speaker 8 (02:49:15):
I go, Okay, I don't think that I would care
to stand there and watch them perform them going, oh no,
I'll sit there, arms crossed, arms crossed, and then I'll go,
oh my stomach.
Speaker 2 (02:49:27):
Yeah, oh my god, I think I have to poop
really bad. I can't stay here. Well, that just go
to the back. I can't. I can't do that arena.
You think I'm gonna poop it an arena, wellcome back
to the office.
Speaker 6 (02:49:37):
Home.
Speaker 2 (02:49:37):
That's even worse.
Speaker 8 (02:49:39):
Right around the guys, right around the corner, you guys
continue to enjoy Maroon five.
Speaker 2 (02:49:43):
Yeah, I'm just gonna I'm just gonna go home. Yeah,
this is this is probably one best gun on home court.
Excuse me, Oh my god, girls, Oh.
Speaker 8 (02:49:52):
My god, girls, we gotta get the hell out of here. Yeah,
off to the Yeah, Dad's gonna drop upper Maroon two
in about thirty seconds.
Speaker 2 (02:50:04):
I'm going to get the hell out of here. And
now I must leave you as the Brady bunch is
on and I find four of those children incredibly arousing.
Get at it.
Speaker 5 (02:50:15):
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.
(02:50:35):
One slip and you know who you're through. Big Brother
is watching you? And are we all narratives? Remember obedience paid,
And when you watch that davy screens, remember it works
both ways. You disappear in a wink. Unless you can
(02:51:01):
double think, you'll vanish into the blue. Big Brother is
watching you.

Gang?
Speaker 2 (01:04):
Good afternoon, Hi there, greetings, welcome.
Speaker 8 (01:10):
I'm going to scratch my neck rod for emphasis, oh,
to get myself right. This is how I you know,
sometimes you'll walk in here and I'll be doing my
vocal trills right to prepare for the show. I'll be
I'll be massaging my vocal cords. I'll be rubbing my throat.
Speaker 2 (01:34):
And whatever.
Speaker 9 (01:36):
You know.
Speaker 8 (01:36):
Sometimes at the top of the show, people will go
you okay, sound sick?
Speaker 10 (01:39):
I go no.
Speaker 8 (01:40):
I literally haven't spoken all day until two o'clock. There
are days where I say nothing until the beginning of
the show, which is probably not good. I should probably
exercise my voice a little bit though, right throughout the
course of the day. I should walk out into the
suite greetings, pears and.
Speaker 2 (01:58):
Colleagues, missing nothing. Well, nevertheless, people out there, and I
should bid them here here.
Speaker 8 (02:07):
I'm Alan Cox, thanks for being here. Rob Anthony's right
over there, and I'll tell you what. Tuesday in Cleveland, Ohio.
Speaker 2 (02:14):
You kidding me?
Speaker 8 (02:16):
One Bernard Kozar is living the first day of the
rest of his life.
Speaker 2 (02:20):
Yep. You might have seen the video that went wide
for good reason.
Speaker 8 (02:25):
It was a hallway full of healthcare workers at the
hospital that were clapping not for him, but for the
young man who ended up donating his liver to Bernie
Cozar every day.
Speaker 4 (02:35):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (02:36):
Yeah, that's uh yeah that that that parade is a
tough one to see, man.
Speaker 8 (02:42):
Well, shades of COVID, right, remember when they were they
were like all the healthcare was healthcare workers themselves that
were getting a lot of accolades and applause and things.
But it was the COVID years were rough for that
kind of stuff. Obviously, this is a situation where young
man voluntarily donated to those things.
Speaker 2 (02:57):
But are you an organ donor? You are all right,
are you?
Speaker 4 (03:02):
No?
Speaker 8 (03:03):
They can have my butthole and that's it. No, I'm kidding,
of course, I'm an orgon doner. Don't get any bright ideas, haters.
Uh No, I think yes, of course. Honor walk man,
every time you see that, you know, it's just get you.
I just I mean, Bernie Costar is obviously the face
(03:24):
of it because we know the story. But you know
that kid helped a lot of people.
Speaker 2 (03:28):
Is that what they're called an honor walk? That's what
it was called, Okay and honor walk.
Speaker 11 (03:33):
They take them from where they passed away, right, and
they bring him to the o R to start removing.
Speaker 2 (03:37):
Their because he has face blurred out and yeah, yeah,
and he had.
Speaker 11 (03:40):
The brown shirt on. It's really I mean yeah, and
then you just you see the family walking behind him
and people are crying.
Speaker 2 (03:45):
It's just that's so damn sad.
Speaker 11 (03:46):
I mean, there's so right, so much happiness on one side,
but it takes so much sadness on the other to
do it, you know, right.
Speaker 8 (03:53):
Alan, please sell Rob had been having a crap day
and that Zeppelin right before you guys came on really
lifted my spear. Oh me to that right, The Ocean's
favorite band, The Ocean. One of my favorite songs by them.
Speaker 2 (04:06):
That was never one.
Speaker 8 (04:07):
You know, back in the day, I had friends that
were into into Zeppelin more so than I was. I
didn't really dig into him until I started working classic
rock radio. But I always vibed with the Ocean and
nobody else seemed to and I couldn't figure it out.
I'm like, well, maybe it's play because I'm playing the
drums to it or what. But well, it seems like
a lot of heavy lifting there either.
Speaker 2 (04:27):
But like the one John Bonham song, I feel like
I could follow along with Yeah because his groove for
me is like I can't. I can't play that stuff.
I love it. You could play this this, I could
play Yeah, But I mean I can play my version
of it. I can't.
Speaker 8 (04:40):
There's no ghost notes or anything, and what I yeah? Anyway,
that's from Eric, hopefully his PostScript. Hopefully you guys don't
suck and bring me back down. Hey, listen, noure, this
is bro no promises. We weren't going to, but now
we are. Now we really want to. Yeah, no, now
I really really want to. Since you said that, and
unfortunately me sucking is completely beyond my control.
Speaker 2 (05:03):
I have no say in the matter.
Speaker 8 (05:07):
I will never once, in thirty years of broadcasting have
I ever at the end of the show taken my
headphones off, put them down and said.
Speaker 2 (05:16):
Man, that was great.
Speaker 8 (05:18):
That was some award winning broadca Not once have I
done that. Some days are better than others. If you
screwed up, you get a chance to do it all
over again the very next day. It's funny you say
that you don't. You really haven't ever. I guess I
never thought about it. We just end the show and whatever.
But you've never taken them off.
Speaker 2 (05:34):
For me, it has a good one after a segment.
Speaker 8 (05:37):
Maybe you and I have done that, right if we're
like laughing about something that just kind of hit us
just the right way.
Speaker 2 (05:42):
Yeah, you laughed at the break, yeah, or whatever. I mean,
that's a different thing.
Speaker 8 (05:46):
But it's like, you know, I tell people I go
every day, I have four hours of dead air that
I have to fill up, right, so you don't get
a chance to Pat yourself on the back as you
gotta go, and you gotta do it all over again
the next day, and it's uh, listen, it's a laborer off.
Speaker 11 (06:02):
I used your I used one of your lines yesterday
other day before with Kelly, my youngest daughter.
Speaker 2 (06:09):
She was like, Dad, don't let the door hit you
with a good log splitch. I do not say that
one though, I said.
Speaker 11 (06:15):
She was like, Dad, I was in the car with
one of my friends and her dad and he made
some comment really trying to be funny, and I realized,
like my friend's parents, like, they're not funny. She's like,
you're funny, and I go, Kelly, I'm a paid entertainer.
You see, I get paid to do this. You get
(06:36):
it for free, right, you get free?
Speaker 2 (06:38):
Right?
Speaker 4 (06:39):
Yeah.
Speaker 8 (06:39):
But also, irrespective of what people might think, right, nobody
gets paid to do this if they're not funny.
Speaker 2 (06:45):
Correct.
Speaker 8 (06:45):
So it's like you might not necessarily think we're funny,
but we've been getting paid. Some other people apparently think so,
and we've been getting paid for a long long time
to do it. But it's very annoying to me as
someone for whom it's very important to be funny. It's
very annoying to me when people who aren't funny really
(07:05):
are always trying to do it. I think you need
to know your strengths and weaknesses even if you are funny. Right,
there's not everybody's funny in the same way. And I'm
not talking about that. I think of people like Elon
Musk Right, it's this is the richest man in the world,
but he's still it's not enough for him a comment
every He has to have everyone think he's cool and funny.
He could not be further from either of those things.
(07:27):
You've seen him on SNL. You've seen him. You know
he's not funny at all. Doesn't have a funny bone
in his body. Wouldn't know a joke if it punched
him in the face.
Speaker 2 (07:34):
Not cool.
Speaker 8 (07:36):
I would think that you'd be okay with being a trillionaire,
but apparently not. That's how important a sense of humor is.
That you can be the richest person in the world
and you still like, I'd rather be funny. So listen,
are we rich in uh?
Speaker 2 (07:53):
Friends? Rob?
Speaker 4 (07:54):
Oh?
Speaker 2 (07:55):
We are rich in humor? Alan, I'm lowly with ass Oh,
what was the joke her friend's dad told, I don't
know it was something always love the little detail. It
was very dad joke, as she told me, and I
forgot it was very Yeah, but those are kind of
meant to flop, Like I do that to my daughter
all the time, and she'll just you know, she'll get
a little genuine chuckle out because but you know, they're
(08:17):
easier to take from somebody if you know that they've
kind of got the goods otherwise. Yeah, it was, but
it was it was like a forced type of not
good one is the way she explained it to me.
Speaker 8 (08:27):
And she was like, you know, it just it was
it wasn't you. And I'm like, oh, thank you, Alan,
big deal about the honor walk. I donate my organ
to my wife constantly. Oh yeah, see, I guess you're saying,
I guess you'd have to make a donation since she's
probably not requesting it all right, Hey listen, Uh, she
(08:51):
doesn't get to keep it.
Speaker 5 (08:52):
Huh.
Speaker 2 (08:52):
And she doesn't get to keep it, right, Indian giver,
can you still say that? I don't think you can.
They call it now. I don't know take backsies I do,
but it's something giver that would still be. It's not
that I have said that word. I even said that
phrasing thirty years agow. They don't know current nomenclature would be.
Speaker 8 (09:12):
I know it is considered a slur, but it's a
valid question about what replaced it in What is another
word for an Indian giver? There is no direct, non
offensive synonym for Indian giver.
Speaker 2 (09:26):
That's what this says. Well, then I apologize.
Speaker 8 (09:29):
Alternative phrases that have been suggested include boomerang, giver, lame, blame,
temporary giver, worse or take it backer terrible.
Speaker 2 (09:39):
They're all awful. Yeah, no take backsies. It was fine
in seventeen sixty five when it was originated, So I apologize.
I'm a throwback. What do you want?
Speaker 4 (09:49):
Come on?
Speaker 2 (09:49):
When James Abram Garfield was saying it, Yeah, it was fine.
We were talking about that show on Netflix called Death
by Lightning and it sounds dull if you're not into
American history. The cast is stacked and it's only four episodes.
It's about the assassination of President James Abram Garfield. Interesting
thing about that when you really think about it, if
you know your history is he was shot in March,
(10:13):
but he didn't die until September.
Speaker 11 (10:15):
Rob Yeah, because of his scumbag doctor who wouldn't listen
to the first guy.
Speaker 8 (10:19):
But he lived that long course around these parts. He's
famous because he was from Morland Hills. He's buried at
Lakeview Cemetery. But yeah, the twentieth present, So eighteen eighty one.
He shot in March by a guy named Charles Guiteau,
but died from his injuries in September.
Speaker 2 (10:34):
That that many months he lived.
Speaker 8 (10:37):
He died on September nineteenth, eighteen eighty one, which Rob
you might not know, was a Monday. Oh first day
of the week. And that's why Garfield hates Mondays. Gotta
take a break. Take that Calli's friend's dad. Let the
(10:57):
professional handle it, all right?
Speaker 2 (10:59):
You see that. That's how you craft a joke. Eh.
You go the Allen Cox Show.
Speaker 1 (11:05):
On one hundred sevens everything is so expensive. Instead of
buying new clothes, just wait for the rapture.
Speaker 2 (11:17):
He'll be surrounded by.
Speaker 4 (11:18):
Free stuff because, let's face it, you won't be going anywhere.
Another life hack from The Allen Cox Show.
Speaker 3 (11:26):
One seven wmms, Hey, your cavalier's got a big one.
Speaker 2 (11:41):
Last night.
Speaker 8 (11:42):
The Solid win one eighteen to one oh six over
the Milwaukee Bucks. There were no Slouches. Calves go to
ten and five second in the East, unbelievably behind the
Detroit Pistons.
Speaker 6 (11:55):
Uh.
Speaker 8 (11:55):
Former Cavs coach HQ Puffin Stuff is the skipper there
at the Little Caesars Arena. And you know, you can't
always count on the Pistons to be any good, but
they're very top right now. So last I see last
year they were getting it together. Yeah, he's they were
a hell of a coach man. Yeah, he's great, great.
(12:16):
I mean he just went right down the road.
Speaker 2 (12:17):
Right.
Speaker 8 (12:17):
What's his name, h Q Puffin Stuff. I think like
LQ Flicker Stick. I don't you know, but he's uh,
he's great Flickers. He's no Vinnie Microwave Johnson there with
the Detroit Pistons.
Speaker 2 (12:34):
But that's correct.
Speaker 8 (12:36):
We go from Detroit to the great City of Chicago,
Illinois and Sticks.
Speaker 2 (12:45):
And that was appreciated. Sticks, but I could never get
into them.
Speaker 8 (12:48):
You know, when I was a kid in coming up,
there are all these local bands that were blowing up
and you were like expected to like them. You were
supposed to love cheap Trick and you had to love
Sticks and you had all the stuff and Sticks is fine.
This Yeah, it's fine. Dennis d Young, however, has always
been always bitching about something right. He left this band
(13:08):
early and he's like, they won't let me do what
I want to do. I'm like, bro, what you wanted
to do is mister rabato? All right, So let's calm
down here. The band still continues, the great great Todd
Suckerman behind the drums now for thirty years. But Dennis
de Young is another one of these guys, and again
he's not alone. This to me is not a snapshot
(13:28):
of how his problem. Normally a lot of people have
the problem that he said that it sucks that musicians
have to be incapacitated before they're inducted into the rock
and Roll Hall of Fame. Sticks whatever you think of them,
should be in the rock and Roll Hall. Of course,
then they're not, so you understand what you know. Tommy
Shaw has always been kind of very critical of that
(13:50):
as well. But Dennis d Young has always kind of
been the loud mouth of that band. And again he
hasn't been with six for a long time. I think
Jay Wise, the guy who sings them, making so many
musicians wait until they're either incapacitated.
Speaker 2 (14:05):
Or dead is shameful. He said, he's right, he's putting
something on Facebook.
Speaker 8 (14:08):
Yeah, he is absolutely correct, and he was kind of
responding to Paul Rodgers, you know who Bad Company just
got inducted, and I've until a couple of days before
Paul Rodgers, who is in ill health, Parkinson's or something
like that, and he was gonna come. Simon Kirk, the
drummer for Bad Company, still the only remaining original member there,
(14:29):
and he played the drums with the rock Hall inductions.
Speaker 2 (14:32):
Who a Bad Company?
Speaker 8 (14:34):
Was Chris Robinson singing and and it was one of
these all starting Brian Adams I think was in there too,
but Paul Rodgers last minute had to submit a video
thank you to everyone, and I guess Dennis d Young
kind of picked up on that and he.
Speaker 2 (14:51):
Said, oh my god, sorry, excuse me.
Speaker 8 (14:55):
I don't want to pull the curtain back too far,
but and I hope it's not a hip a violation.
Rob always sneezes when sticks is played, so they do everything.
His eyes water if lady is on the juke bi.
Speaker 2 (15:08):
First sign, get hard and that's it, and here comes
to sneeze every single time.
Speaker 8 (15:14):
The rarest of allergy indicators, by the way, the hard nipples.
Usually it's the sinuses or the eyes getting puffy, it
is the nipples. No pen on the planet take care
of these bad boys. No, that's right, once the turkey's
done for Thanksgiving. But yeah, Dennis de Young is like
the Hall's mission statement about who qualifies was always a
(15:36):
ruse and a joke, concocted to protect their own personal choices. Boy,
people really get poetic when they start railing against the
Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. Now, of course, the
irony in all this is it's the bands that complain
the loudest, who also say the loudest that they don't
care that they're not in the Rock and Roll Hall
of Fame.
Speaker 2 (15:52):
So you certainly can't blame them. I think you have
to say that once you once you go all in
on screw them. They're stupid. They don't know how to
put good people on the rock and roll You kind
of have to say, I don't care if I get in, Yeah,
but I respect the people who when they finally do
get in, they don't care.
Speaker 8 (16:07):
Oh yeah, I'm not going. Dennis de Young is seventy
eight years old, still lives in Chicago.
Speaker 2 (16:14):
I think.
Speaker 8 (16:16):
It's a shame that bad Company had to wait so long,
So it's not even really a complaint on his part
that Styx isn't in there. I don't even know if
he mentioned that, but anybody reading it would go, yes,
Stick should be in there too.
Speaker 11 (16:28):
Well, you just think of all the bands that are
going to go in where all the members are dead
and nobody even knows that they ever made it.
Speaker 2 (16:35):
That's the thing for me, that's like it. That's the
tragedy in all of it. All these bands that are
going to get they're all going to get in. Someday
Styx will go in. Whether any of them are alive
when it happens, who knows. So you spend all that
time wondering, like, man, why am I always a bridesmaid? Well?
How about the Foreigner Lenyard Skinnered tour? Yeah?
Speaker 8 (16:58):
Right, they just announced Skinnered and Foreigner are embarking on
a co headlining tour. If you like either of those band,
it's great news. It's called Double Trouble Double Vision. Right
next summer, they're gonna do a bunch of cities. Except
neither band has any original members. I mean, you have
people in there that have been in those bands for
a long time, but no original members, and they both
(17:19):
did farewell tours two or three years ago. So you're
kind of now in this rock and roll limbo where
you know they both did farewell tours. Now, of course
I'm gonna have Motley Crue tickets all week for you
as well. Speaking of farewell tours, those guys famously went
on one.
Speaker 2 (17:36):
Years ago and oh boy, they're still around. They blew
everything up. It's over. We're gonna sign it in blood,
sign it blood, whatever, gonna go out again.
Speaker 8 (17:45):
A Motley Crue an especially egregious example, because these guys
were sitting around at home for about a year and
a half.
Speaker 2 (17:50):
Didn't take them long at all.
Speaker 8 (17:51):
It's not like after twenty five years of silence the
return of Motley Crue that was like, hey, eighteen months.
Speaker 2 (17:58):
These guys are all bored, and that was eighteen months.
Speaker 11 (18:00):
That means they probably started having conversations like less than
a year in like, I don't know, how long can
you guys do this? I know we made a big
deal out of like coming off the road and we're
done and we're breaking up. I mean, we weren't serious
where we can unbelievably cynical. I know, because I think
the fans want to think, Oh my god, this is it.
(18:22):
Look at the lengths to which these guys are going
to put up across the t's dot the eyes right in.
Oh negative, Hey, we ain't going out there anymore. This
is your last chance to see us.
Speaker 8 (18:32):
And of course everybody goes and buys tickets, But somewhere
in the band's brain they go, this is a cash grab.
And in a couple of years that we change our
minds and there's always some press. Really, once we realized
we missed the fans so much or whatever. I mean, listen,
it's your life, it's your career. You do whatever you
want to do. But and Kiss set the bar for that.
Kiss did twenty five Goodbye tours? I mean, right, But
(18:55):
who thinks they're not gonna miss it? I understand being
in the moment. We had Wolfe van Halen in here yesterday,
couldn't have been nicer in town for a couple of
days early. They're playing the Agora tonight, his band Mammoth,
Miles Kennedy, they're playing the Agora tonight, and he came
in the top of the show yesterday and we were
just kind of chatting and he was talking about life
on the bus.
Speaker 2 (19:15):
Right, Yeah, you're traveling everywhere.
Speaker 8 (19:16):
You're so used to life on the bus, and when
you're in the moment, going town to town, up and
down the dial, you're probably thinking it'll be nice to
be home wherever that is. You know, he's talking about
his mom and wife coming out to meet him for
Thanksgiving wherever they are, right, you might end up having
Thanksgiving dinner in Charlotte who knows, but who doesn't think
(19:39):
they're going to miss it. When you're in it, you go, oh,
I can't wait to get off the road, But you
give it two weeks.
Speaker 2 (19:45):
You know.
Speaker 8 (19:45):
I had Bruce Dickinson on a couple of months ago
for the Metal Show to do a metal show called
two Hours at Midnight, And I had Bruce Dickinson on
and I said, are you a guy who gets antsy
when you're home? Because he lives in England, right, But
he's also a pilot, and he's got a solo band,
and he's got Iron Maiden and all this kind of stuff.
So are you a guy who gets antsy at home?
And he goes, I'm never home long enough to get antsy, right,
(20:07):
And that to me was a very honest answer. He's like,
I'm a guy that likes to go out and do stuff.
He's a married guy.
Speaker 2 (20:12):
I think so.
Speaker 8 (20:14):
I'm just always curious why these bands don't have the
foresight to go, boy, I'm really going to miss this.
I'm really going to miss this. There's a reason I've
done it this long.
Speaker 2 (20:23):
I felt like such a biblical douchebag talking to him
before we went on yesterday. Who woolfy Wolfy?
Speaker 11 (20:29):
Well, cause we're talking to him uncle Pat going back
and forth, and I said, we were talking about his
trip to the Hall of Fame.
Speaker 2 (20:35):
He's like, yeah, we came in yesterday, tray. He's like,
traffic was a nightmare.
Speaker 11 (20:38):
He's like, our uber tried to drop us off and
the guy's like, you know, he's another guy was getting
into the car so they wanted us to get out.
And I'm sitting there and I go, oh, he said
he did the rock call. I said, pretty cool, right,
He's like yeah, and I go been there before? And
then I was like, oh that's right. Your dad's Eddie
van Halet.
Speaker 2 (20:58):
No, but that doesn't mean he's been rock and roll
Hall of Fame. He gave me the yeah yo, hey
yeah yeah. He didn't even know what his mom put
on Instagram. Well, that's totally true. My mom puts on
Instagram either. I mean, you know, in all fairness, it's
your mom. If and if, by the way, if you
don't follow Rubb's mom on Instagram, if you haven't seen
her Anti Epstein's screed One for the Age incredible, my
(21:21):
mom my mom gets into it. Man, Yeah she shut o.
No I did.
Speaker 11 (21:24):
I felt so dumb because there's like that whole section
of Eddie guitars, like, of course he's been there.
Speaker 2 (21:32):
I felt like such dick. I understand where you're coming from,
but yeah, you know what I mean. Like, but again,
I guess that's any good conversation.
Speaker 11 (21:41):
You sort of sometimes aren't sitting there thinking about who
you're talking to, right, Like I wasn't like, oh my god,
I'm talking to Wolfy van Ail and we were just
sitting there shooting the breeze wasn't a big one because
he's so laid back and such a nice guy, nice kid,
but clearly like kind of a U feels very protective
about things.
Speaker 2 (21:59):
You know, I think you have to be when you're
him too.
Speaker 8 (22:02):
Well, I agree, and that's why I wasn't gonna sit
here and talk to him about his dad for twenty minutes,
because I'm sure that's what everybody runs up on him with.
Speaker 2 (22:09):
But you ever been to the Hall of Fame before
Wolfgang where your father is and all of his guitars
and all of his amps and all those things. You
know how he changed the sound of music forever? Yeah,
and one of the vast guitarists of all the time.
Speaker 8 (22:21):
Day are you a fan of the Rock and Roll
Hall of Fame? Are you immortalized in the Rock and
Roll Hall of Fame?
Speaker 2 (22:28):
All right? What did you say when you got in?
He was very excited. All right, he's Jesus nice. He
keeps my favorite quote yesterday. He's made a lot of noises.
Sure has ponteth Heyn. What do you say, Pope? Hey,
(22:54):
it's Pope Leo. So how you doing? Hey around?
Speaker 9 (22:57):
I was just checking in to let you know. And
Biblical Douchebag it's my new heart.
Speaker 10 (23:03):
Course.
Speaker 2 (23:04):
I'm putting together a hardcore side project here in the Vatagin.
Speaker 9 (23:09):
It's called Biblical Douchebag.
Speaker 2 (23:11):
I wasn't where you were a musician.
Speaker 9 (23:12):
Oh yeah, sure I am.
Speaker 2 (23:13):
What do you play?
Speaker 10 (23:14):
Yeah?
Speaker 9 (23:15):
I play the marimba. I played the marimba.
Speaker 2 (23:19):
Yeah.
Speaker 9 (23:21):
We got a guy over there in Cleveland that plays
a skin flute.
Speaker 2 (23:24):
Okay, yeah, I didn't realize that was an instrument for
that there on Facts eight, the biblical douchebags.
Speaker 9 (23:29):
Biblical douchebags. Yeah, so I want to let you know,
and you should make sure you come to see us
next time. I don't think we're gonna tour obviously.
Speaker 2 (23:37):
But you know, just to let you know. How's things
over the Vatican?
Speaker 9 (23:41):
What do you mean how's things over at the Vatican.
Speaker 2 (23:43):
I don't know.
Speaker 9 (23:44):
The whole world's falling apart.
Speaker 2 (23:45):
I'm obviously good at asking bad questions the celebrities, So
I'm just trying to You got half the people over
there saying that Jesus told everybody to punch immigrants in
the face. How do you think I'm doing?
Speaker 9 (23:59):
You got Christian over around saying, yeah, Jesus wanted people
to starve.
Speaker 2 (24:03):
Oh that's what the loads and the fishes.
Speaker 9 (24:05):
It was all about holding the people. Why do you
think it's going over here round?
Speaker 2 (24:09):
I obviously have hit a nerve. I'm sorry. I see
you're county soon. Okay, bye, He sounded pissed. Well, Yeah,
he sounded so pissed.
Speaker 8 (24:21):
He's got the weight of the world on his shoulders.
He's like the cover of the fifty one to fifty album.
Speaker 2 (24:26):
Bro Biblical douchebag. How about that? I'd go see him. Ellen.
I'm Bill from Cleveland.
Speaker 8 (24:34):
I'm out in Madona County today knocking on doors, and
I thought of Rob because I saw a bunch of
ducks quacking at me and running around.
Speaker 2 (24:42):
I hope you guys have a great day. How about that?
That wasn't my house, peopulls.
Speaker 8 (24:46):
People's thoughts turn to you now anytime they see aggressive foul.
Speaker 10 (24:53):
Raw.
Speaker 1 (24:53):
Hey, the quay raw they.
Speaker 2 (25:04):
He said, my neighbors got dugs. Maybe quacking no day,
But I think I had enough maybe.
Speaker 8 (25:11):
By the way, after that first segment, a lot of
people are texting me what they thought were the alternatives
to that old slur. Indian giver.
Speaker 2 (25:20):
Yeah, and they're terrible.
Speaker 8 (25:22):
I mean, you know, nobody's gonna say Native American giver,
No Guardian giver.
Speaker 2 (25:27):
Nobody's gonna say that.
Speaker 11 (25:28):
I guess I didn't even think that that's where that
came from. It was just something you say, like you
sat Indian style.
Speaker 2 (25:35):
When I was a kid, like criss cross apple sauce
giver as when somebody else's is preferre. It makes sense.
Speaker 8 (25:41):
Yeah, yeah, Native American bestower. Well, that implies the giving, but.
Speaker 11 (25:49):
It also suggests you're taking it back again if you're
going with that, Hey, listen, hold on.
Speaker 2 (25:56):
We could sit right here and boss talk outside of
the door. We don't have sound proof. Should I just
invite him in.
Speaker 9 (26:05):
Right?
Speaker 2 (26:05):
No, because then he thinks he's got to do stick.
And No, he's doing that now because he knows he
can hear. He's that's fine. No, we're not. I haven't
even mentioned who you're talking about, that's true. Nope.
Speaker 8 (26:19):
I'm finally getting some things I want around here, right.
I don't want to make any sudden movements.
Speaker 2 (26:24):
Trying to get a squirrel to come over to me. Rob,
I you know what I mean. Yeah, shiny jetty shiny objects.
Oh my god, I got my car estimate this morning.
Oh yeah, fifty. Is it in the range of fixing
(26:45):
or is it?
Speaker 4 (26:46):
No?
Speaker 8 (26:46):
I was talking to the guy and he goes because
it was mostly body. I hit a deer last week.
I was only doing twenty five and this thing came
out of nowhere. And summer assaulted across my hood. So
other than being down to one headlight, it was mostly
body work. And the guy goes yeah. He goes, as
all plastic and only we got to pull this stuff off,
or what I've shifted the whole hood, you know, all
that drivable, nothing operationally wrong with it. And he goes, well,
(27:08):
once we got the hood up, he goes, there were
a couple of things here and there. He's like, the
other headlight was cracked. There was an air conditioning condenser
line that was cracked. So he's like, a couple of
things here. But they submitted to insurance, and I said, well,
I was worried they were going to tot let out
because they said it had so many miles. He goes,
I said, I was hoping to maybe get another year
on this car, and he goes, yeah, at least he
said it would be up to them, obviously. But he's like,
he goes, we got people still driving like, oh, nine fusions.
(27:31):
He goes, you can put a lot of miles on
these cars. So I was glad to hear that.
Speaker 2 (27:36):
So what did you look up what Kelly blue Book
says your cars were?
Speaker 4 (27:39):
Did not?
Speaker 2 (27:39):
Let's do that? No ear is it.
Speaker 8 (27:41):
It's a twenty fifteen, twenty fifty. Yeah, but it's got
two hundred and twenty eight thousand miles on it. So
my only concern is that insurance is going to go
We're not going to do that. We're just going to
tot let out, which again is not the end of
the world. But I really would like to have to
have a couple more years with this car, because if
I can put the miles on it and I've been
taken real good care of it, how many miles? What
(28:01):
two hundred and twenty eight thousand?
Speaker 2 (28:07):
What's that? Boss? Alan Styx actually played at my high
school prom. Oh?
Speaker 8 (28:12):
Wow, Palatine High School, nineteen seventy four. That's suburban Chicago. Wow,
all right, nineteen seventy four. Hello, we're sticks. Hopefully someday
we'll be in the rock and Roll Hall of Fame.
And everybody starts laughing at them. They're like, what's the
rock and roll hall? But what it's nineteen seventy four,
what's the rock and roll Hall of Fame? It's real,
(28:37):
So we'll see. He's like, I'll you know, they work
directly with insurance. He goes, we'll see what they say
and you know if if they want to do it,
we'll do it. I was like, okay, but that was
about what I thought he was going to tell me too.
I would have been surprised had it been less than
that Kelly Blue Book has it at like five grand.
I'm not like forty nine.
Speaker 2 (28:57):
To fifty two.
Speaker 8 (28:57):
That's what I was worried about. They're going to go now, well,
I mean not necessarily though I don't know. I don't
know how those things work. I've never had to file
an insurance claim in my life.
Speaker 11 (29:07):
If you go on the very good side right of
value of the car, if you take it to very
good fifty seven is the high.
Speaker 8 (29:14):
I mean, it would have no trade in value at
the end of it still, of course, But I'm like,
I really I like this car. I would like to
drive it another You know, I put way fewer miles
on it than I used to because when my kids
were younger, I was still going back and forth to
Michigan all the time. And you know, they're in their
early twenties now they're both adults, so I don't make
(29:35):
that trip as often anymore. So I I know that
I could get another a couple of years on this car.
If you know I play my cards right, But.
Speaker 2 (29:45):
We have a used car? What I was going to
ask if we had a used car expert online one
but they hung up. Who was that? Hey, I'm getting
Dick from Dayton. I have no idea. I can't tell.
I just saw the linery. Yes, comes with that horn.
Hey how about Bernie Koshar? Yeah? How about him? Good
(30:12):
for him? You think you'll be good enough to start
for the team again next year by the Allen Cox
Show on one hundred point seven called the Alan Cox Show.
And this is when the Antichrist is going to reveal himself.
He lives among the feasts and heats grass.
Speaker 4 (30:33):
Two one six five seven eight one double oh seven
or one eight hundred three four eighty one double oh seven.
Speaker 2 (30:43):
Okay, you don't stop, you don't stop, you don't stop.
Speaker 9 (30:50):
I think.
Speaker 6 (31:00):
It likely.
Speaker 2 (31:06):
I heard this in a minute. It's one of my favorites.
Speaker 8 (31:08):
Fell Communication. Yeah, yes, it is Misty boys, Mario Clex.
Speaker 2 (31:18):
I'm ready to go because theos a little man.
Speaker 12 (31:20):
They called him.
Speaker 2 (31:22):
Sabotage on ill Communication. It was Okay, did you watch Jeopardy?
No I didn't. I'm two behind. Actually I have him
on my uh D v R.
Speaker 8 (31:32):
There was a b c's answer last night. They had
a category called never have I Ever? And I'm always
flummixed by what people don't know. You know, I love
Jeopardy because that's the game show where you can't just
you can't slop your way through it, right, I mean,
Wheel of Fortune, you can do a lot less work
and make a lot more money.
Speaker 2 (31:54):
But Jeopardy, you gotta be smart to be on that show.
Speaker 8 (31:57):
That's why it's always amazing to me when you'll get
you know, you'll have people on that show who completely
crap the bed. Now you don't know what the categories
are going to be, so it just might not be
your night. But you've gotten through batteries of warm up
tests to get on to Jeopardy and then you crap
the bed.
Speaker 2 (32:13):
So that's I mean, you got on.
Speaker 8 (32:15):
The guy that he currently got running the table is
this kid who is like a five time champ. He's
up like one hundred and sixty grand or something, and
he's just a machine. But it's interesting to me the
things that they don't know. You know, you'll have three
people who are a little bit younger. I mean, you know,
they look like maybe millennials, or something, maybe mid thirties.
And you know, these people will run the table on
(32:37):
seventeenth century Spanish literature, but then you ask them pop
culture questions and they don't know all three of them.
Speaker 2 (32:44):
Whift on a Beastie Boys answered, never have I ever six.
Speaker 7 (32:49):
Never have I ever wrapped like this group? Well, you can't,
you won't and you don't stop. Mike Dee, come and
rock the sure shot.
Speaker 2 (32:56):
That's a lie. I one hundred percent have nobody. Oh no, Mike,
the you have the Beastie Boys. Wow, Ken Daffy Duck
Jennings over there, the Beeftie Boys.
Speaker 11 (33:09):
Well wait a minute, though, how old are is this
normal age jeopardy or is this like teen Jeopardy?
Speaker 8 (33:14):
It's not teen jeopardy, That's what I'm saying. These are
the three contestants. They were probably millennials. They were probably
like early mid thirties, because two questions later, the girl
who looked like she was nineteen, it was an answer
about the movie Network, which was from nineteen seventy six,
and she nailed it. So it's always interesting to me
what people do and don't know. Right, Well, how do
(33:35):
you know not one not one of those three? Well,
that's what I mean. But then again, they'll know really
esoteric stuff, because again these are really smart people getting
jeopardy and so really esoteric stuff they'll know. But like
things that we would consider to be more pop culture
popular culture knowledge.
Speaker 2 (33:55):
They don't know. It makes me feel so good all
the time, too, well, it makes me feel old. I'll
say that.
Speaker 8 (33:59):
Boy, when they've had questions or answers on there before
that people have whiffed. And I always think of the
actor when they show their face and there's a category
this actor one blah blah blah and they show their face. Yeah,
you have like a visual clue and everybody whiffs on it.
It's gonna make you feel good when you're that person, like, Okay,
nobody knows who I am.
Speaker 11 (34:17):
I'll just there and watch it, you know what I mean.
They get it wrong and I get it right. Stupid asses. Yeah,
and of course that's the one question I got right
for the entire round.
Speaker 8 (34:24):
But these people were not too old or too young
to have known the Beastie Boys. I was like, really
didn't get it.
Speaker 11 (34:34):
You know what, I'm due for a deep Beastie Boys
dive once a year usually, and then I'll sit with
it for quite a while.
Speaker 2 (34:42):
Yeah. I loved the Beastie Boys.
Speaker 8 (34:47):
Yeah, I liked them when I heard them, but they
were never I wasn't like a rap fan and license
was my thing. But I liked that they were musicians.
That was the part that I was That eighty six
which one License to Ill? Yeah, I think so, right,
Rick Rubin Licensed to Ill nineteen eighty six.
Speaker 2 (35:07):
That there you go.
Speaker 11 (35:08):
I that was probably the first record I owned, like
of my own. I was seven, was Licensed to Ill,
License to Ill? Yeah, And I listened to that until
I wore holes in that vinyl. It was at that
To this day, it's one of my favorite albums.
Speaker 8 (35:25):
So yeah, they they whiffed last night on the Beastie Boys,
Question Your Cavaliers, No whiff and last night won eighteen
o one oh six with the Milwaukee Bucks here at
home off tonight back tomorrow hosting the Houston Rockets.
Speaker 2 (35:40):
That's Hakeem Olajahwan. I don't think so, and I'm sorry,
I don't think he's there currently, might be hurt. Maybe
he's out with a injury. Oh you think he's hurt. Yeah,
maybe maybe there's there's a reason he's not there. I'm
not quite sure what it is. All right, don't they
have Katie? Isn't he with the Rockets?
Speaker 13 (35:57):
Uh?
Speaker 8 (35:58):
He bounced around, but I thought he was a I
know they have Fred van Vliet, formerly of the Toronto Raptors.
Speaker 11 (36:04):
Well, good news is that keem Olaja want is alive. Hey,
technically he could play for them, so he may may
be back from his injury all right since two thousand
and two.
Speaker 2 (36:15):
Wow, he was on IR for a long time. He's
been out for a while.
Speaker 13 (36:19):
Wow.
Speaker 11 (36:19):
Yeah, okay, I think they said it was like a
twenty three year plan when they kept his locker and
everything everything.
Speaker 2 (36:24):
Yeah, he's stuff, isn't it? And he stayed conditioned. Yeah.
Speaker 5 (36:28):
Wow.

See that's dedication. That's what the That's what these damn
kids are missing.

but there's a lot of new shows. I mean it
takes me a month to watch, you know, a couple
episodes of some new show.
Speaker 11 (38:27):
Oh, because I said, I said, I sat and watched
the entire Death by Lightning.
Speaker 2 (38:32):
I watched it from start to finish.
Speaker 11 (38:34):
Yeah, because you're at home and i've but on the weekend,
never done that, So that might maybe because I watched it.
Maybe he didn't catch the part where I said I
never watched television like that, Like, I'm good for a
half an hour to an hour show a night, and
then I'm asleep on the couch.
Speaker 8 (38:48):
And by the way, answered your own questions, like forty degrees?
What am I missing outside in Ohio? Well, I like
being outside, but I'm not hanging around outside when it's
forty two degrees. It was like flurries this morning, and
then the sun came out.
Speaker 2 (39:03):
I'm like, all right, I'm getting to realize who am
I trying to impress?
Speaker 11 (39:06):
It's never the right temperature here. That's one thing I'm realizing.
It's either way too goddamn hot or ice cold. Like
I feel like three days all year I've been like,
oh it's nice out.
Speaker 6 (39:20):
Ah.
Speaker 2 (39:21):
Yeah, I feel like the weather is at extremes now everywhere.
Speaker 11 (39:26):
Well, fall is gone, like we didn't have a fall,
autumn whatever, right, Like it just it went from summer
and then we had that week where it was like
seven six seven, and then it was like eighty again,
and then it's like, oh, yeah.
Speaker 8 (39:42):
This is it.
Speaker 2 (39:42):
Now it's winter. We're gonna get snow.
Speaker 10 (39:44):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (39:46):
Like even my leaves I still I still have trees
full of leaves. Yeah, trees full of leaves. It's one
of my favorite poems.
Speaker 8 (39:57):
Alan, you have an eerie similarity to the guy in
Indiana who shot the cleaning lady who was at the
wrong house. That's what this guy thinks. I look like
that guy right there. Wait hold on, let me find
you a better photo. It's always interesting to me, but
you look exactly like this guy, do I That's what
I look like to you, Not that you're I mean,
(40:18):
obviously no, but he sees themselves how they actually look.
Speaker 2 (40:21):
So it's completely but it is interesting to me of
the things that people will come up with. Yeah, someone
sent me a DM earlier of a guy wrestling a crocodile.
Crocodile walks all over him, and he says, when you
get older and gain back a decent amount of weight,
you'll look identical to this guy.
Speaker 8 (40:39):
Well, you just can't win, can't when you when you
gained you know, if you lost a considerable amount of weight,
you look like Kevin Sevanski.
Speaker 2 (40:46):
You know, if you gained some weight back, you'd look
like X, Y and Z.
Speaker 11 (40:50):
Yeah, that's right. Yeah, and I'm not doing that. Well,
not anytime soon. I'm sure I will somedayd Now. No,
so he says, you look like which guy? The guy
who just shot through the door. The cleaning lady showed
up at the wrong house, and this guy just fired
through his door. Because apparently people are scared for their
lives when the cleaning lady shows up. This guy there,
(41:10):
there's his uh mugshot, a guy named Kurt Anderson.
Speaker 2 (41:14):
Apparently I look like that guy.
Speaker 8 (41:16):
Listen, there's worse people to look like, I guess, but
it is always interesting to me the perspective people come from. Hey, listen,
everybody else is calling me a grandma Rob That's okay.
Speaker 2 (41:27):
We got eaten a live in that photo I posted,
Oh did we really? Oh yeah, well with his grandparents.
Oh yeah, yeah, yeah, you said it yesterday. Well so
he texted it. I didn't look at comments on that.
That looks like you, by the way, Well again I
would say that. But it's interesting what people see you, don't.
You know, you don't see yourself the way that other
people see you. Obviously, Oh I see you. Oh I
(41:49):
don't get you right now? Hey, how you doing? You
don't look like that.
Speaker 8 (41:53):
And I got to hold the flag for the Browns
game on Sunday, slam some RC coal before hand. I
couldn't have been more prepared, with the taste of the
Crown fueling me. Of course, Royal Crown cola, the official
cola of the Cleveland Browns.
Speaker 2 (42:12):
So it was like one of those field length flags.
Is that what it was that they do? I don't know,
like the hands everybody moves it.
Speaker 8 (42:17):
And I'm reading what they wrote. I didn't even know
that was a thing. What's that they held the flag
for the Browns game? They mean the American flag, That's
what I'm thinking about.
Speaker 11 (42:27):
They spread it out and yeah there's one like that's
the field length and there's one hundred people that are
on it ice and they move their arms up and down,
so it you know, walls.
Speaker 8 (42:35):
Like in kindergarten where you get underneath the multi colored
parashue parish on the top of it.
Speaker 2 (42:40):
Yeah, wet and sloppy.
Speaker 8 (42:45):
That's what's going on out there today. Yeah, well, listen
for people who do watch a lot of television. Gatorade
is joining up with another company and they're looking for
people to become what they're calling an armchair coach, and
they're going to pay hate somebody two thousand dollars to
yell at their television. I mean, you watch a game
from home, you comment, you celebrate in your rant about
(43:09):
your favorite team, and you get paid two thousand dollars.
Speaker 2 (43:12):
Company called Roto.
Speaker 8 (43:14):
Grinders that sounds made up, call bad plays, celebrate with
a gallon of Gatorade, and get two thousand dollars in
the process. Two grand a whistle, a foam finger, rob,
and a gallon of gatorade to pour.
Speaker 2 (43:30):
On your own head. I don't hate any of this.
Speaker 8 (43:34):
You gotta submit a piece of video two minutes max
of you Rob watching a football game.
Speaker 2 (43:40):
Okay.
Speaker 8 (43:41):
It's got to be you're you're at home or wherever,
and you're watching a football game, okay, and you're yelling
at the television and you're calling plays.
Speaker 2 (43:52):
I have to assume you'd be watching a Patriots game.
Speaker 8 (43:56):
And you're celebrating the touchdowns and you're breaking down the
and then you upload your video.
Speaker 2 (44:02):
You put it on YouTube or TikTok or something. Yeah. See,
I don't audition for things out. This is what I'm saying.
If you want me, you know where to get me.
This is what I'm saying.
Speaker 8 (44:12):
I don't toot my own horn very often, but every
so every so often, you know, I'll have somebody will
reach out to me professionally and say, hey, we'd really
like you to I go. I don't audition. No, everything
you need to know about my show, go online and
listen to Oh you want to hear a rob Rant,
turn your radio on.
Speaker 2 (44:32):
There you go.
Speaker 8 (44:33):
Yeah, there's your there's your Rob Rant. So be the
the official armchair coach. That's what they're looking to do.
Speaker 2 (44:42):
Is a problem with the way I'm coaching?
Speaker 5 (44:44):
No, no, no, it's just a well, like I was
yelling earlier, seems like anyone would half a brain could
coach better than you.
Speaker 2 (44:53):
Half a brain. Huh, well you know what, it sounds
like you just volunteered me, but you were doing so
that's a great job. Oh Homer hoisted with your own petard.
Oh how about that.
Speaker 8 (45:10):
The Oxford English I'm sorry, the Cambridge Dictionary. You know
they're always adding new words. The Cambridge Dictionary has added
their word of the year. But it's not a brand
new word. Uh, it is sixty nine years old.
Speaker 2 (45:23):
Rock nice.
Speaker 8 (45:29):
The word parasocial, which we've used more and more. It's
much more mainstream now, word parasocial on which they use
when they talk about people who have like an unhealthy
attachment to people they don't know, like celebrities and stuff. Right, yeah,
Cambridge Dictionary has marked parasocial is their word of the year.
Speaker 2 (45:48):
It feels like they do this word of the year
thing five times a year.
Speaker 8 (45:51):
Well, here's the thing is that there are so many
dictionary companies. Now there's like dictionary dot Com, and then
there's Oxford English Dictionary, there's the CA Okay, so that's
how I think it is, is it? But you're right,
every couple of weeks we got some new friggin ward
of the year.
Speaker 11 (46:07):
Parasocial is a good one because that affects a lot
of people in a lot of different ways.
Speaker 8 (46:14):
The word itself was coined in nineteen fifty six involving
or relating to a connection between themselves and a famous
person that they do not know. I have to think
that in the fifties, you know, those are the early
days of television, so they were probably like, you know,
do you have an unusual relationship with someone you've heard
on the radio, You're a parasocial You you are experiencing
(46:40):
a parasocial relationship, or you know, a character in a book. Maybe,
But I think modern times you think of Swifties. I mean,
when you think about a parasocial relationship, what immediately springs
to mind probably Taylor Swift fans.
Speaker 2 (46:57):
Really, see I don't I.
Speaker 8 (46:59):
Mean see, she to me is like the alpha of
a public figure with a rabid fan base.
Speaker 2 (47:07):
Yeah. But see, I think that that goes beyond that.
Speaker 11 (47:09):
I think that you could say, Donald Trump would come
to my mind before anybody else because his fans are
so passionate about him, do you know what I mean?
I think that that almost goes further than that Taylor
Swift connection. Yeah, the Taylor Swift thing.
Speaker 2 (47:23):
I agree with you, but I think if you identify
as Maga or you are ultra connected to everything Donald
Trump is doing, yeah, that's a whole different connection point.
Speaker 8 (47:36):
Yeah, listen, I guess you can't really argue that point.
I just think of it in terms of the Swifties
and Taylor Swift. You know, they attached themselves to the
art she is providing for them, or as the Maga
people just found a guy who made it okay for
(47:56):
them to be the a holes they had already been,
or they didn't have to hide it anymore.
Speaker 11 (48:02):
I think the bigger difference though, is that not everybody
who is a Swiftie is going to go out and
wear Taylor Swift's hat, because you know what I mean. Like,
that's where I think there's a different obsession on the
on the Trump side of things than there is with Taylor's.
That was just the first thing that popped into my head.
Speaker 2 (48:22):
Taylor Swift and Donald Trump near the Twain shall meet,
so make America swift again. Also, we're gonna see this.
I have a feeling that you're going to see this.
Speaker 8 (48:35):
Going to hyper speed with AI right, there's more and
more people this is my AI girlfriend. You have an
entire generation you know of in cells that can't get
it together, who are gonna have AI girlfriends? And again
there's women with AI boyfriends too, people who are using
chat GPT as their therapist.
Speaker 2 (48:57):
I mean that's a parasocial relationship. I really like.
Speaker 8 (49:02):
AI slop h Ai hi Ai slop all over the place. Yeah,
so parasocial which have been around a long long time.
As I said, Rob sixty nine.
Speaker 2 (49:16):
Years, guys noise, if it had only been two years Newer.
Speaker 1 (49:28):
Six seven The Allen Cox Show on one hundred sevens.
Speaker 2 (49:37):
Of course he stays.
Speaker 4 (49:38):
Calm when someone steals his stuff from.
Speaker 2 (49:41):
The company fridge. He needs that energy for when he
poops in their gas tank. Allen Cox on one hundred
point seven.
Speaker 14 (49:52):
WMMS yours col de Ice, you will need to sacrifice.
Speaker 8 (50:17):
We were talking about Foreigner before they announced they're doing
a summer tour with Leonard SKINNERD Skinner's on the Rock Hall.
Speaker 2 (50:24):
Either are they I think that Foreigner just got in? Ah,
have they really? I think I would imagine Leonard Skinner.
I mean, if you were to ask me, I would
think I'm gonna say, yes, they are. They have to
be Leonard skinnerd in the Rock Hall, yes, twenty ten.
Speaker 11 (50:40):
Yeah, they that's one of those. I can see them
touring without any original members because starting eighty five percent
of them died in the plane.
Speaker 2 (50:49):
Crash two thousand and six, so they've been in for
a minute.
Speaker 8 (50:55):
They were inducted by Kid Rock into the Rock and
Roll Hall of Anyway, we were talking before Foreigner and
Leonard Skinner were going on the road, despite both bands
having already done farewell tours and neither band having any
original members.
Speaker 2 (51:13):
But if you like either of those bands, you can
go see him here. You're going to a tribute show.
I mean, it's it's fine, you're not you know, it's
it's a good time. It's just not the band. Really, Yeah,
I want to see a version of it.
Speaker 8 (51:29):
I was reading about a guy who, well, people have thoughts.
Even though it's this guy's private life, people have thoughts.
One of these guys who bought into the cryo scam.
Not crypto, that's a different scam. A guy who cryogenically
froze his wife in the hopes of bringing her back
(51:50):
when lung cancer was cured is in a bit of
a pickle because he's got himself a new girl. So
it's uh, it was just a few years ago a
guy in his late fifties made the decision to freeze
his wife's body.
Speaker 2 (52:08):
And so that she could be potentially revived.
Speaker 8 (52:10):
It is amazing to me the money people will spend
on that, given that there has been no payoff whatsoever
in that. You know, your one power outage away from
your loved one, you know, melting through the bottom of
the and he's got himself a new girl. The woman's
(52:35):
body is still being stored minus three hundred and twenty
degrees fahrenheit.
Speaker 2 (52:40):
Her unit has the sexy name Container number one. She
has a unit.
Speaker 8 (52:45):
Yeah, this is in over in China, and this guy
goes and regularly checks the storage tanks, goes and visits
his wife's storage tank. I mean, yeah, I still don't
understand that because conceivably you would potentially die before anything
(53:06):
was found.
Speaker 2 (53:06):
And then anyway, so you know, this guy was mentioning
about how he has a new girl. His wife was
diagnosed with terminal lung cancer in twenty seventeen and he
had her preserved. She is in stable condition, whatever that means.
Speaker 8 (53:29):
They said that her cellular structure has not undergone any
abnormal fluctuations, which reminds me I saw John Carpenter's working
on a sequel to the thing.
Speaker 2 (53:37):
It's pretty exciting.
Speaker 8 (53:39):
But she's been obviously clinically declared dead, and obviously he's
taken all kinds of heat from people because he's not
going to wait for her to come back.
Speaker 2 (53:49):
He's got a new girl.
Speaker 12 (53:51):
So what do you do?
Speaker 2 (53:51):
Do you unplug her? Oh? I mean you're gonna be
already dead. I mean, which you're gonna pay for the thing?
I mean, what do you do?
Speaker 15 (54:02):
You go?
Speaker 2 (54:02):
Well, I got this new girl. Ah, and uh, I
think he got sick maybe, and so he sounds like
he just needed a lady, you know, to help take
care of him. He was suffering from an extreme case
of gout and he could die from that.
Speaker 8 (54:20):
I don't know, he's not dead, but like, well, I
was gonna say, like gout, Jesus, that used to be
the rich man's disease, right, Yeah, they called gout the
rich man's disease because you got it from eating all
of these foods that were not largely available to super
rich food Yeah, the hoi POLLOI I think it's just
arthritis though, isn't.
Speaker 2 (54:41):
It isn't gout arthritis is it? I thought it was.
Speaker 11 (54:44):
But it's like in specific, very like in your foot
joint or that's what I mean, like you joints awful pain.
Speaker 2 (54:51):
It's painful too. I mean, I guess if it's extreme arthritis,
it would. But yeah, my cousin had it. We used
to make fun of them all the time because it
wouldn't stop.
Speaker 8 (54:59):
It's a rick acid thing, it is, But it's also
seems entirely avoidable, you know, not everything's made him right?
Speaker 2 (55:07):
What was he drinking? Like two laters of pepsi and
he got fat?
Speaker 11 (55:10):
He was in the navy forever and then he got
fat and just didn't take care of himself and then
he got gout so like he would just sit there
with his foot his shoe.
Speaker 2 (55:18):
Oh no, how do you get rid of gout? You
just show up your diet or I don't.
Speaker 11 (55:22):
Know, because it's like crystals that develop right like sharp.
But it feels like you're getting stabbed in the foot ouch.
Speaker 2 (55:28):
That his was in the food. You know, you can
get into other places, but yeah, I think you just
like I think, just don't be stupid with what you
eat and it'll go away.
Speaker 8 (55:38):
So it's it's not just in the foot. I thought
it was like ankles or something, but it's I guess not.
Speaker 2 (55:43):
His was in his foot. Yeah, oh so funny. You
guys laughed at him all the time because he was
like forty five, were like, dude, you're way too young
to be walking around. Just stop eating. Stop eating, like,
stop eating fruit roll ups, you fat pig, and you
won't have these problems, right, And it's all he did.
He would just he had sweet tooth and he drank,
(56:05):
so it was like all these I think he ate
steak like four times a day, Like those are the
things that'll get you, so we would just make fun
of them. Well, and there's a lot of dudes.
Speaker 8 (56:13):
Obviously exercise will mitigate it too, but there's a lot
of dudes that are trying to do like caveman diets
and stuff like that. So like I just eat steak
and butter, Like I wouldn't want to do that, just
just even from like a forget a health approach. I
wouldn't want to sit around choking down steak and butter
all day long.
Speaker 11 (56:31):
I remember going to I've talked about this place before,
the Nordic Lodge, to buffet in Rhode Island, Charlestown, Rhode Island,
and it's all lobsters and like it's an insane buffet.
Speaker 2 (56:42):
And you would see people at this place taking their
shoes off because they were like undoing their belts.
Speaker 11 (56:50):
Like the butter would come out of they had taps,
like taps of fresh drawn butter. So they would get
like five lobsters and they would go with this tub
of butter and they're like, oh, yeah, they got gonna
act up. So I'm just gonna, you know, take my
shoes off ahead of time.
Speaker 2 (57:03):
People just oh, it hurts, but it's well worth it. Yeahs.
My father in law is a man of sizable carriage.
Does he get the gout?
Speaker 8 (57:15):
Doesn't have the gout? But the story that is still
told is one of the first times I met him.
When my wife and I were dating. We went up
to the Up. He's a gambler and he wins a lot,
so he's not some guy who like doesn't know what
he's doing, right, So it's always playing in tournaments and
things like that. One of the first things we all
(57:35):
did together was we went up to a casino in
the Up. We went up to Saint Ignace in the
Upper Peninsula of Michigan, and they had this massive buffet,
and my wife is like, I thought, right there, you
were gonna break up with me because we were sitting
at this table and her father had just come back
from the buffet and he had a giant bowl of
(57:55):
drawn butter, and he had a massive plate of crab legs,
and it proceeded to surgically remove all the crab from
those legs and pour it into the giant bowl of
melted butter and eat all of that. Oh boy, like
it was a stew and just I was fascinated by
the spectacle of it. And I was like, oh my god,
(58:20):
it was more respect than anything else. Now to me,
that's nothing. It would ever even occur to me to
eat his drawn butter and a giant but pant butter
he killed it. I was like, no, I was impressed,
impressed because it was like it was no thing. I
was like, wow, She's like, yeah, that's how my did eats.
I was like, wow, that's I mean, that's it was
(58:42):
intense amazing. Does he still eat that way?
Speaker 13 (58:45):
No?
Speaker 2 (58:45):
No, no, I was going for a long time. Oh,
it's like fifteen years ago.
Speaker 8 (58:49):
But I mean it's you know, and he's had a
couple of heart surgery since, but he takes much better
care of himself now than I think he will, you know,
for a long time. If you're living that way and
nothing's kicking you in the ass, you're.
Speaker 2 (59:01):
Like, hey, man, I'm fine. Yeah, I'm fine. You're slim
pickings riding the rocket all the way down. I wish
red meat wasn't as bad for you in massive doses
as it is, because I could probably eat steak and
stuff every day.
Speaker 8 (59:14):
I don't know what's considered massive doses. Like I like
red meat, no, I know, but if you eat it
every day, that's not a good thing.
Speaker 2 (59:21):
You know, it's not good for you to eat.
Speaker 8 (59:23):
Well, it depends on how much you eat, right, Like
if you had a six ounce fil A every day.
Speaker 2 (59:28):
Yeah, I don't know if that's good for you. Really.
I don't know if your plate is like three quarters
of vegetables.
Speaker 8 (59:36):
Yeah, Like if I go out and have a steak,
I'm not getting the forty eight ounce Porterhouse and watching
it down with DRAMBOUI you know what I mean. Like
I'm getting a six ounce fil A, maybe a little
blue cheese on the top and the rest of its vegetables.
Speaker 2 (59:48):
And so if I were going to eat that every day,
maybe not awesome, but I don't know.
Speaker 11 (59:55):
Yeah, it's linked to heart disease, stroke, type two diabetes,
and certain types of cancer if you eat too much
much red meat, all right, aim to consume no more
than eighteen ounces of cooked red meat per week. Eighteen
so I can only have three six ounce fil as
per week. Yeah, so that's not terrible. I guess if
you do it that way, you're fine. I usually see
(01:00:17):
I would go for the eight ounce fil a. You
would go for the six six Yeah.
Speaker 8 (01:00:25):
Brian Listens in Fort Myers, Florida, Allen, gout comes from
your diet if you drink a lot of alcohol and tea,
is what I was told. I just went through it.
Alcohol and tea, I mean a lot of tea. They're
probably multi I do too. They are probably multiple ways
you can get it. But Alan, I'm thirty two and
I randomly get gout.
Speaker 2 (01:00:43):
Well, see that's not funny. Rob is Rob is an ass.
It's not funny. No, see, it's not getting it randomly
is not funny. Get worked himself into it, right, he
ate himself into it or when you're that, like when
you do that to yourself, and then you continue to
do that and you can't do anything at a wedding
(01:01:03):
and have to remove your shoes because you want to
keep drinking and eating like a pig at the event. Yeah,
that's on you.
Speaker 8 (01:01:08):
Yeah, but this person says mine is from drinking and
poor diet. I'm like, well, that's not randomly getting out then, yeah,
then that is funny and it's on you, right, And
if you sit there like my cousin does and plan
for it, I'm gonna go ahead and take my shoe
off because I had too many beers at this wedding.
Speaker 2 (01:01:25):
Okay, idiot, Yeah, enjoy that limb Allen.
Speaker 8 (01:01:30):
That sounds absolutely delicious. Branch out from your lettuce smoothies.
Speaker 2 (01:01:35):
I don't know what to tell you. I ain't gonna
cack over at seventy five years old.
Speaker 11 (01:01:40):
Parma man in the chat says, butter taps is what
they'll play at Rob's cousin's funeral.
Speaker 2 (01:01:50):
Well done, now, Yeah, we barely knew him, didn't we.
He lived the way he wanted to live, and he
went out in a blaze glory in butter fresh drawn,
smoking hot but drawn butter. Yeah, yeah, Alm.
Speaker 8 (01:02:12):
What would it sound like if a doctor diagnosed you
with gout in the nineteen twenties, Hey, you've.
Speaker 2 (01:02:17):
Got gout, large amounts of uric acid. Your uric acid
is built up lay off the red meat and alcohol
like sweets. Do you fatty stop with a twinki?
Speaker 8 (01:02:29):
Oh no, no, So that's probably what it would sound like,
something like that. Yeah, right, well, let's hope that it.
How is your cousin now? Is he in better shape
or this is it?
Speaker 11 (01:02:48):
I mean I don't talk to him often, but I
mean he's still fat, he's still oh yeah, doesn't take
good care of himself.
Speaker 2 (01:02:53):
Yeah, nice enough guy, uric acid? All right?
Speaker 8 (01:03:00):
Like Robert Erck, the guy who used to play spencer
for Higher I don't think so. No, a different thing, Alan.
I'll go four or five months with no issues, and
then I'll wake up and my gout is just there.
Speaker 2 (01:03:11):
That's why it's not funny. Don't tell me what's not funny.
I know what's fun I know what's from funny. It
sounds painful, and you're probably drinking water all day long
because you're trying to flush.
Speaker 15 (01:03:24):
Ugh.
Speaker 2 (01:03:25):
Yeah, it's like they say, it's.
Speaker 11 (01:03:26):
Like like needles, like needles just digging into that particular
joint that's painful.
Speaker 2 (01:03:31):
Yikes. So again I don't think that that part's funny.
Speaker 11 (01:03:33):
I think it's funny when it's self inflicted because you
don't have any self control, right like the people at
the fresh drawn butter tabs at the Nordic Lotche. I'm
gonna be in pain, so I'm gonna take off my shoes,
undo the velcrow on these shoes and enjoy myself.
Speaker 2 (01:03:51):
Hey, you could always put potatoes in your socks? Could
I always put potatoes in yourself?
Speaker 8 (01:03:55):
It's another one of these dumb home remedies that people
think is like an actual thing.
Speaker 9 (01:04:00):
Oh are you sick?
Speaker 2 (01:04:02):
What slices of potato? And you sock?
Speaker 6 (01:04:04):
What is this?
Speaker 2 (01:04:05):
Fifteen forty? Yeah?
Speaker 8 (01:04:08):
You think the sun is coming to eat you too? Like,
why are people still paying attention to this stuff? You
see it on Facebook and you see you know, TikTok
all the life hacks. Oh, we'll cover your feet in
vacoline and then put socks on.
Speaker 2 (01:04:19):
What I know?
Speaker 8 (01:04:21):
American healthcare is utterly broken. I fully understand that. I
get why people are looking for solutions, but they ain't
solutions slices of raw potato in your socks overnight. What
pardon me, Hey, why don't you get off TikTok for
five seconds? Oh, it draws out the toxins. No, it doesn't.
(01:04:42):
There is absolutely zero scientific evidence that that is anything
more than a folk remedy. Oh but some people you
cannot tell them it doesn't work. They have a placebo
effect or they got something, you know, and they're like.
Speaker 2 (01:04:54):
Oh, yeah, what and what what? You have a sore throat? Oh,
someone's told me should tie a piece of bacon to
a string and swallow it to throat, to coat my throat.
Speaker 8 (01:05:04):
Well, because people go, oh it changes color. Yeah, that
happens with or without the sock. Right, you expose a
potato to oxygen, there's a chemical reaction.
Speaker 2 (01:05:15):
That's not because you put it in your sock overnight.
And like, these aren't new.
Speaker 8 (01:05:20):
These are these things that are debunked over and over
and over again, and they keep making their way around.
Speaker 2 (01:05:28):
I read someplace that you're in cuus acne. Oh I'm
supposed to. That's just from somebody who wanted me to
pee on them. That's all that is. Yeah, doesn't work. Yeah,
I heard that rubbing turns on your forearms. It's better
than tattoo removal. What did you ever I remember the
onions in your underwear. It's like, gee, what is this
(01:05:50):
Netherlands in the sixteenth century? Put butter in your shoes?
Oh good, yes, good for my feet and my glasses
and shoes them all. I'd but yeah, why did you
just drink more water and try to get more sleep?
How about that? That could work?
Speaker 8 (01:06:08):
To go for a walk anyway, those will make the rounds.
Ever so often somebody sent me the the thing. They're like,
you know, oh, people are putting slices of potato in there.
So I'm like, again, this comes around every few years.
It's like there was some huge discovery. Oh hey, durally,
the American Medical Association determined it actually does work.
Speaker 11 (01:06:29):
No, I do remember there being one when I was
a kid that my buddy's mother, grandmother something. I had
a coal saw my lip. I was like, oh, this
is awfrb. Yeah, she goes, you know, it takes care
of that, And I was like, not making out with
dirty women. She goes, no earwax, I said, earwax? She
(01:06:54):
said earwax? You put ear wax on a coal sow
it's gone.
Speaker 2 (01:06:57):
The next day. Guess what I didn't do put ear
wax on a cold sore? Of course I didn't, but
that was she's swore. I'm telling you, by the way,
just who can just conjure up earwax?
Speaker 11 (01:07:09):
I'm sure if you just dig in far enough you
I think everybody has some because you're not supposed to
use Q tips.
Speaker 2 (01:07:16):
I do every single day.
Speaker 4 (01:07:17):
I do not.
Speaker 2 (01:07:18):
My daughter goes in with my Oh, I'm.
Speaker 11 (01:07:20):
Like, you could almost come out the other side. I'm
in so far with the que No, I don't que
tip boy every day. And you don't think you have
ear wax, then I don't you have to.
Speaker 6 (01:07:29):
I don't.
Speaker 2 (01:07:29):
I'm telling you I do not. Where is my point?
They tell you Q tips push it further in any way? Yeah,
but where does it go? Then? Where does what go?
Your earwax? I don't know.
Speaker 8 (01:07:38):
When I get out of the shower, I put a
Kleenex on the tip of my pinky and I rub
it around in my ears and it comes out white,
makes that squeaky.
Speaker 2 (01:07:48):
Yes, both ears nothing m and so I don't have anything.
Speaker 15 (01:07:53):
Now.
Speaker 8 (01:07:53):
Maybe I'm lucky. Maybe it's just you know whatever, Maybe
that's purely concident. Maybe I'm just saying that.
Speaker 2 (01:07:58):
Like, you know, when I see her go at it
with I'm like, oh my god, it's like I know
what I'm doing, and I go okay, okay, okay, I.
Speaker 4 (01:08:07):
Have to do it.
Speaker 11 (01:08:07):
And every once in a while you get a little
too far and you make like that face. It hits something, right, Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah,
get a little off balance.
Speaker 8 (01:08:18):
Alan, You know what else pulls toxins out your goddamn
liver and kidneys.
Speaker 2 (01:08:21):
Yes, yes, exactly, that's the point. Yeah, they weren't putting
potatoes in Bernie Kozar's socks. They might have been, I mean,
you know rough shaped there before you guys transplant. Alan,
My girlfriend tells me to sleep with half an onion
next to my bed when I have the flu. Why
don't you break up with her? That's also probably because
she doesn't want to smell your flue Breath'd rather smell
(01:08:43):
an onion stuck between the two ears.
Speaker 8 (01:08:45):
Alan, I put potatoes in my socks and I have
gout hash browns in the morning.
Speaker 2 (01:08:50):
Yummy, yummy? How about that? Uh huh? Delicious? So good?
Speaker 6 (01:08:58):
And your dumb shot of oh, I worked in a
kiosk in the mall and I sill sunglasses. I am
so tired of people like you saying that you're.
Speaker 10 (01:09:15):
Family.
Speaker 6 (01:09:17):
You have no compassion for the working man. You just
play on your radio, Joe, don't play any good music anymore.
Speaker 2 (01:09:28):
Yeah, there was a guy that texted me yesterday and
said that he was at a mall. He moved to
des Moines, and he's like, Jesus, these Kiosk people are
really aggressive.
Speaker 8 (01:09:37):
Wasn't me that guy right there? Good gravy. He's trying
to trying to sound like angry political guy.
Speaker 11 (01:09:44):
Almost Tom felt like the return of your songwriter there
that likes to call you a homosexual.
Speaker 2 (01:09:52):
Feels like the.
Speaker 8 (01:09:53):
Same guy right, Maybe not now, but he was angry,
so wasn't me. By the way, I am a working man.
I don't know what you're talking about the working man.
I mean, I know what you mean, but I'm a
working man.
Speaker 13 (01:10:05):
Rob.
Speaker 2 (01:10:05):
I'm not breaking rocks, but I'm busting my ass every day.
This is work. It is right here, what we're doing
is work. I don't know what to tell you.
Speaker 8 (01:10:14):
You might not believe it, but okay, well anyway, sir,
it wasn't me hurling epithets at me.
Speaker 2 (01:10:20):
You homo a Hey, listen.
Speaker 8 (01:10:25):
The sunglass kiosk biz is not for the faint of heart, right,
and you got to get in front of people. Hey,
And that's how you know that you've reached an upper
echelon of salesmanship when you can sell sunglasses to people inside. Hey,
to Brighton here for you. No, I'm inside and the
(01:10:47):
mall lights are way way above my head. Wouldn't you
look good in these? And then they get you with
a mirror and then you go, oh, I would look
good in these?
Speaker 2 (01:10:54):
The Curling car show on one, let's call the Alan
Cox Show. You met Alan? Oh my god, I forgot
about Alan. Okay, you have a whiteboard.
Speaker 4 (01:11:07):
Two six seven eight one double oh seven or one
three four eight one double oh seven.
Speaker 2 (01:11:28):
Three five.
Speaker 8 (01:11:29):
I want to send me a text Alancoxshow dot com.
Email there if you need Alan cochro stickers. Always having
to send those out and been posting photos on the
Alan Coxhow Facebook page of listeners who are traveling and
tagging the show in places like Greece and Australia and
uh where else Raleigh, North Carolina.
Speaker 2 (01:11:50):
I believe so thanks one and all. I don't know.
Speaker 8 (01:11:53):
I guess the next trip I'll be taking is. I'm
going home for Thanksgiving, I'm going to Toronto, and we're
done for the year here. I guess i'll tag some
spots around there. I'll put a sticker on my mom's
fridge and just take a picture.
Speaker 2 (01:12:09):
Counts. It would be the first Alan Cox show sticker
in my mom's house. Really, yeah, my mom has an
Alan Cox show sticker in her house, does she? Really?
She does? All right? Well? And I tagged a whole
bunch of spots down there, huh. I tagged a whole
bunch of spots when I was down there.
Speaker 1 (01:12:27):
Yep.
Speaker 2 (01:12:27):
I'll have to remember to take some stickers with me.
Covered up that Jimmy Buffett sign with an Alan Cox
Show sticker. I like that.
Speaker 8 (01:12:35):
Although he's much I know you don't like him at all,
but boy, he's much much more prominent in this business
than we are. Feels disrespectful, well on our part.
Speaker 2 (01:12:50):
Tell you these things I did over there on the
Jimmy Buffett Memorial Highway.
Speaker 8 (01:12:56):
Your Cavaliers are off tonight, but they win last night
over the Milwaukee Bucks, who are now slouches one eighteen
to one oh six. The final tomorrow night, they are
still here at home. They're home through Sunday. In fact,
play the Houston Rockets tomorrow night. That's Kevin Durant and
Fred Van Vliet, right, I think they're on the Rockets. Yes,
(01:13:17):
and uh, six point thirty is your pre game tomorrow
night here in the buzzard. And then the Indiana Pacers
will be in town for an NBA Cup game, and
then Sunday night close out the weekend, Calves will host
the LA Clippers before they head up to Toronto to
play the Raptors. I guess they don't play on Thanksgiving Day,
do they? That's football's domain. Well, I think the NBA plays.
(01:13:39):
I just don't think they have any not the Calves. Yeah,
I don't think so. I'm pretty sure they play, though
they play now, they play Friday. They play the day
after Thanksgiving. They'll play the Atlanta Hawks down there in Atlanta.
When I'm looking at here, I'm.
Speaker 2 (01:13:53):
Not sure there's NBA games on Thanksgiving. Maybe not the Calves.
Maybe NBA games. Maybe they're cavalier.
Speaker 11 (01:14:00):
No, I'm looking maybe yeah, maybe they maybe they are off. Yeah, wow,
I guess I never realized. I know that they play
on Christmas. I always assume that they played on Thanksgiving.
Speaker 8 (01:14:09):
They play on MLK Day because we are preempted by
Calves on MLK Day, and they play on Christmas. I mean,
when you think about it, Rob, MLK Day and Christmas
are the two biggest gift giving days of the year. Yes,
remember my Martin Luther King Junior Day gift to you
last year?
Speaker 2 (01:14:29):
I don't.
Speaker 8 (01:14:30):
Oh, I'm sorry for me. I left you alone because
we were off all right. Yeah, I didn't text you
all day.
Speaker 11 (01:14:36):
The Calves will play on Christmas this year? Did you
already say that I did. I didn't realize. I knew
that there were games on Christmas for you, I did
not see that they were one of them taking out
the nix at Nude.
Speaker 2 (01:14:47):
By Calves next Christmas Day.
Speaker 16 (01:14:51):
I was flipping around the old boob tube last night
and came across Jeopardy and it was at that question
and I just landed on it. They asked the question,
I said, Beastie Boys, and then I kept moving through
the channels. My fiance has never been more impressed of
me ever, But yeah, whatever, I let her down shortly
(01:15:12):
after that, I'm sure.
Speaker 2 (01:15:13):
But Peyton Show, Richard Northfield Goodbye, how about that? He's
clicking around.
Speaker 6 (01:15:17):
Yeah.
Speaker 8 (01:15:17):
I was talking earlier about how there was an answer
on Jeopardy last night. The question was the Beastie Boys.
None of the three people got it and one like
there were seventy. You know, these are people that, by
all accounts should have known the Beastie Boys. They didn't
get it.
Speaker 7 (01:15:29):
Never have I ever six never have I ever wrapped
like this group. Well, you can't, you won't and you
don't stop. Mike de come and rock the sure shot.
Speaker 2 (01:15:39):
That's a lie. I one percent have Oh no, Mike
d have the Beastie Boys.
Speaker 8 (01:15:46):
Sometimes Ken Jennings is flabbergasted of what they don't know,
because sometimes he'll hit little editorial comments right.
Speaker 2 (01:15:54):
He'd be like Jesus Christ.
Speaker 8 (01:15:57):
He'll go ooh, bad news for Chris Rock. Chris Rock
was the question there? Who is Chris Rock?
Speaker 2 (01:16:06):
And uh yeah, oh I heard Stansbury talking about how
Shadur Sanders got burgled, Yeah during the game.
Speaker 8 (01:16:17):
Burgled during the game. This seems to be well, I
was gonna say, a growing trend. I don't know if
it rises to that level.
Speaker 2 (01:16:25):
Obviously we're going it's gonna make the news when a
professional athlete gets their.
Speaker 8 (01:16:29):
House broken into during a game down there right in
your neck of the woods, Madinah County. He he lives
in Granger Township, right, the ones who get it done?
Is that anywhere near you?
Speaker 2 (01:16:43):
Not far? Okay, not far? So if you were to
drive past his house, you could honk and wave and
he'd know as you.
Speaker 11 (01:16:52):
I don't think we're that close. Oh but I mean,
you know, I could probably figure out where it is approximately.
Speaker 2 (01:16:59):
Yeah, should know me, Rob? Okay, Rob, the guy made ducks.
You the guy that just broke into my house? They know, sir.
Speaker 8 (01:17:07):
Two hundred thousand dollars worth of property was stolen?
Speaker 2 (01:17:11):
Yeah? That what was in there?
Speaker 11 (01:17:13):
Well look I mean you've seen him right, Yeah. Just
the jewelry alone.
Speaker 2 (01:17:18):
Oh is how what it was? I'm like, that's more
than some people's houses. Oh yeah.
Speaker 11 (01:17:22):
They could get two hundred clean me out and I
would not have no two hundred thousand dollars worth this day.
You could take everything I own, yeah, including my cars
and my house. It'll probably not come up with two
hundred grand.
Speaker 2 (01:17:34):
Yeah.
Speaker 8 (01:17:35):
Local media personality Rob Anthony had his home burgled during
one episode of their popular afternoon show, The Alt Cox Show.
Over a WMMS and they say thieves got away with
eighteen thousand dollars worth of property, including two cars, cash,
and jewelry.
Speaker 2 (01:17:54):
Yeah right, thankfully, the most expensive thing Rob owned was
on his finger, his wedding ring. They broke into his
Caviare refrigerator and made away with the contents. Took my bubbly.
Speaker 8 (01:18:07):
Yes, his foam finger collection was stolen from the Somebody said,
is that foam finger for the whole finger? And I said, no,
the one right next to it.
Speaker 2 (01:18:21):
Wow. How about that?
Speaker 8 (01:18:22):
This guy making his NFL debut and somebody breaks into
his house.
Speaker 2 (01:18:28):
Yeah? Wild.
Speaker 11 (01:18:31):
As if the performance wasn't bad enough, he had to
go home to a burgled home.
Speaker 2 (01:18:35):
Yeah. I don't understand how that happens, though, I mean,
I mean, they know where you're gonna be. I know,
if you're how do you let that happen?
Speaker 8 (01:18:45):
Surveillance cameras in his home captured video of the suspects
as they entered and moved through the house. So he's
got cameras they've got so you're not going to identify them.
Speaker 11 (01:18:55):
There has to be more security if you're those dudes,
if you're living in but there isn't mansions.
Speaker 2 (01:19:01):
There needs to be like people, Yes, these.
Speaker 8 (01:19:05):
Guys aren't hiring because who thinks their house is going.
Speaker 2 (01:19:08):
To get broken?
Speaker 11 (01:19:09):
How well could it possibly cost you to have private
security when you're not home. If you're at a football
your job is eight hours a day, you're out of
the office, Uh well once a week in.
Speaker 8 (01:19:20):
The Yes, I just got to say, even if you're
one of these guys, I just can't imagine you would
think you'd get a home invasion while you were playing
a game.
Speaker 11 (01:19:30):
Something Just like that whole thing to me, whenever you
read those things, it always feels like it's inside Jobby,
like it's right, he's somebody insurance or just someone who
knows what he's got in there. It's never it's never like,
oh I I never had any contact whatsoever. I just
wanted to break into Shador Sanders' house. Somebody did some
work there, some something, you know what I mean, like
(01:19:52):
a targeted incursion.
Speaker 2 (01:19:53):
Yes.
Speaker 11 (01:19:54):
I just feel like when you're when you're that level
of person, have somebody at the house all the time.
Betty will now two people's say designated survivor.
Speaker 8 (01:20:03):
Right if the president and the vice president both go down,
I mean you're gonna want Mike Johnson run in the country. Well,
that's always you check it on your porn news. Did
you watch that show Designated Survivor?
Speaker 2 (01:20:16):
Yeah?
Speaker 8 (01:20:16):
No with Keiper Sutherland. Yeah no, Yeah, so you know
you keep one person back. Yes, so if like the
and they don't know who it is and they.
Speaker 2 (01:20:25):
Blow up the Capitol and every senator and everything in
line of succession is dead, you're the person designated survivor.
Speaker 8 (01:20:32):
Yep, the designated survivor, by the way, and I probably
shouldn't put it all out there, but the designated survivor
of the Allan Cox Show. Yeah, John Legore, that's a
sales uh person here. By the way, I figured i'd
put a Rhode Island native in there, perfect.
Speaker 2 (01:20:55):
Yes, Well you think I couldn't do that job?
Speaker 17 (01:20:57):
Allen?
Speaker 2 (01:20:57):
What do you think? What do you think? You think
I couldn't do this job?
Speaker 8 (01:21:00):
By the way, for everybody asking, because we mentioned it
yesterday at some length, our new phone screener is starting Monday.
Speaker 2 (01:21:06):
Yeah. She excited.
Speaker 11 (01:21:08):
I confirmed it again. I was texting with her last night.
I have to think she's excited. She's very excited. Good
And I said, you think you're excited, you should meet.
Speaker 2 (01:21:17):
Me Alan and I are positively Turgent. I don't know
what to do with myself. So shder Sanders, who's a
young man. This dude's twenty three. Yeah, I didn't know
he's a young Yeah. I mean if you see him
any I mean he's constantly he's dripping, yeah, always. Yeah,
So it's yeah, you know, I'm sure that's a part
(01:21:38):
of it. They weren't ripping flat screen TVs off the wall,
you know what I mean, Right, they're like, if this
guy's wearing this, he's got way more of it. They
knew where to go. I guarantee you those people knew.
Speaker 10 (01:21:48):
Well.
Speaker 8 (01:21:48):
It's like people on Instagram who are always flexing and
then they take pictures of their vacation and their house
gets broken into because they're.
Speaker 2 (01:21:54):
Like, hey, empty house, empty, nobody's there.
Speaker 4 (01:21:57):
Yeah.
Speaker 8 (01:21:58):
I think way fewer people just from the stories I've
seen of celebrities getting their homes broken into things that
I think way fewer people have these sophisticated security systems
than you would think. I think they're rocking ring cameras
like everybody else. Maybe a little bit more than that,
but it's not like they have people at the house.
Speaker 2 (01:22:19):
That's crazy.
Speaker 8 (01:22:20):
And I mean, Sam, I just think if you, like
Kim Kardashian was on vacation and somebody broke into her
house or like when she was in Paris, right hostage
or something, Yeah, looking for jewelry. So it's like you're
kind of caught between a rock and a hard place.
If you're somebody for whom your whole brand is flexing publicly,
(01:22:41):
you're like, look what I got, and then they're like, ooh,
look what you do got I'm gonna break into your house.
Speaker 2 (01:22:47):
But yeah, you're right. Maybe it was a plumber inside job,
maybe something a union job. I wonder if he had
anybody over there who was doing a plum job, who
would be plum or maybe they were there powder coating
his rims.
Speaker 8 (01:23:08):
Yes, a rim job. Listen to Shader Sanders. Rim job
is one of the most difficult moves on Urban Dictionary.
It's what I've heard, so it's worth looking into.
Speaker 2 (01:23:17):
Drunk Sue says. It's also the ones you'd least expect.
Wouldn't it be great if Dion Sanders broke into his
son's house and stole two hundred thousand dollars worth of stuff,
That would be the person who would least expect, right, Yeah, dion. Dad,
you're such a dick. Why would you do that? I
just really like that necklace. Oh right, that's his kid.
Speaker 8 (01:23:35):
Yeah, I'm so used to hearing this name that I
forgot the lineage, right I did. I mean all other
times I just hear the name, the name, the name,
completely forgetting.
Speaker 2 (01:23:45):
That's his dad, he and his brother. What's his name? Shiloh? Shiloh.
Wasn't that one of the games on the Price is Right?
It was also a song Shiloh uh huh by John Denver. No, Shiloh,
come on, I'll give you another. I'll give you another
crack at it. Yeah you should know that. Give me
(01:24:06):
the era oh man uh seventies seventies a song called
Shiloh from the seventies. Yeah, one neil Bert dying o
neil Bert right then, and then.
Speaker 8 (01:24:27):
Leg and Shiloh, Shilo my friend my Shiloh it together.
Speaker 2 (01:24:38):
Yeah, dreams right big?
Speaker 8 (01:24:44):
I remember every lyric never had one lesson right me Shillo,
I need don't way.
Speaker 2 (01:24:56):
Yes, my mom played this non stop, and the shovel
laying me said right on my face that he was
saying these were green bean in there? Yeah, the beans
shy low, Okay, good shut. I was young, Hello, and
(01:25:19):
now I was young.
Speaker 8 (01:25:22):
Okay, Well, yeah, I hadn't heard about that. I heard
Stansbury talking about it at length, and I was like, oh, man,
house got broken into.
Speaker 2 (01:25:30):
That does suck. That's suck. It's the perfect cap on
a crappy day. Oh you're playing for the Cleveland Browns.
You come home, you get nuked, you lose the game
in the last broken windows ten minutes.
Speaker 13 (01:25:41):
Yeah.
Speaker 8 (01:25:42):
I like how they described it, though. The twenty three
year old former All American struggled mightily. That's a nice
way of putting it. How did he do?
Speaker 4 (01:25:51):
You know?
Speaker 2 (01:25:51):
That's what the fans said too, you know, oh, he
struggled mightily. They were very poetic in their criticism. That's
exactly what it sounded like.
Speaker 8 (01:25:59):
Yeah, but but yeah, and Stansburg is rattling off all
these other guys, is like Travis Kelsey and Patrick Mahomes.
And you know, when these guys are at work, people
are they're getting burgled.
Speaker 4 (01:26:13):
M m.
Speaker 8 (01:26:15):
Is nothing sacred anymore. Alan, I read the door was unlocked.
I mean, I don't know if that's true. You might
not have human twenty four hour security, but your door unlocked,
I don't know. Is he in some like gated community
or is he like behind I mean.
Speaker 11 (01:26:35):
I don't know exactly where his house is, but I'm
sure it's not like he's not living in the same
cul de sac as me.
Speaker 2 (01:26:41):
You know, he's probably in a really nice area.
Speaker 8 (01:26:45):
Alan Sean Taylor was a player for Washington who was
killed in a home invasion. He was injured and the
intruders thought he was out of town, but he was
at home.
Speaker 2 (01:26:54):
Wow about that? Yeah, I feel like these days like, yeah, I.
Speaker 8 (01:27:01):
Don't know, man, I wonder if security, and obviously private
security is beyond most people's means, right most that's why
there's a boom and ring cameras and all that kind
of crap. However, I would think that if you have
the means, it's like any place where there's a lot
of people.
Speaker 2 (01:27:17):
Now, like anything can pop off. Yeah.
Speaker 8 (01:27:21):
I don't know, but two hundred thousand dollars because originally
I thought it said twenty and I was like, oh,
well listen, it's a lot of money.
Speaker 2 (01:27:32):
But two hundred grand, Well, I'll tell you that the
stats for that game, you would think would be enough
to go home and just be like, man, they're brutal today,
really suck. Yeah, they're brutal. He has, but everybody has
a bad day at work. Rub not that bad. He
has the lowest passer rating in NFL history. I know. Yeah,
(01:27:56):
but if he spikes the ball game he was four
of sixteen for forty seven yards with a pick and
no touchdowns. If he spiked the ball on every play,
every play, he would have had a twenty seven passer rating.
Mm hmm. So he should have done that. Should have
just spiked the ball every play. He's obvious.
Speaker 11 (01:28:16):
I mean, listen, man, he went out there craping rocks.
There was a ton of nerves, all the pressure in
the world. Everybody's been calling to see him on the field. Nope,
you cannot.
Speaker 2 (01:28:26):
No matter what.
Speaker 11 (01:28:27):
He was going into a tough situation, no matter what,
He's much better than what you saw out there.
Speaker 2 (01:28:32):
For sure. How good is he? I don't know. Should
he be a starter, I don't know the answer to
that even but I can tell you he's better than
what we saw.
Speaker 8 (01:28:41):
I had one of our beer chiefs in North Carolina,
a bit of a pivot, but one of our beer
chiefs in North Carolina about two dudes who got into
a shootout at a grocery store because they were fighting
over a turkey.
Speaker 2 (01:28:53):
Ooh, Now, I don't know why.
Speaker 8 (01:28:56):
Because the economy is great, prices are way down, doesn't
matter what you're seeing. I've heard on good authority prices
are all way down, So you're crazy if you think
they're not. Anyway, gun play started up. The guy was
arguing with the cashier over the price of the turkey.
I wonder how big the turkey? You know, you can
(01:29:17):
go big with some of these birds. Yeah, and another
guy stepped in. That's where you get into trouble. There's
another guy, you know who's gonna be whet up. They
get into a fist fight. That's level one.
Speaker 2 (01:29:28):
But they were both strapped and so one of them
got shot in the arm over the Thanksgiving turkey.
Speaker 10 (01:29:41):
Trustomer came from rest to six, ran over to the
man that was all in my face. Was like, this
is a woman, talk to me like that. Next thing,
you know, they right there, confrontation go on. They fighting.
The man was standing tussling and trying to get his
gun out of his pouch to shoot the other man.
And the mass was like, oh, you want to pull
(01:30:01):
out a gun? They mean right now, what I'm off with,
is that it's saw shooting.
Speaker 2 (01:30:06):
He went to get his gun out of his pouch. Ouch.
Let me reach into my pouch and get my firearm
or Thanksgiving turkey. Hmm. It reminds me I gonna get
my Thanksgiving turkey.
Speaker 8 (01:30:18):
I was thinking the very same thing. I mean, my
mom is, you know, obviously doing Thanksgiving, but I was.
There was an article that popped up the Midwestern mystery
of Snicker's salad at Thanksgiving. I know you're not from
the Midwest, but I am. I've never heard of this, never,
never Snicker's salad. And this article is like, like, everybody's
on board, yeah Thanksgiving. You know in the Midwest they
(01:30:40):
do Snicker's salad. I'm like, no, no, I've never heard
of this before in my life. Vanilla pudding, milk whip topping,
Granny Smith apples, and chunks of Snickers sounds disgusting. I've
never heard of this a candy bar salad. Maybe somebody
in the audience right now can set me straight. But
my grandma made what I thought were weird things, but
(01:31:03):
I don't think they're that weird. She made something called
frozen Waldorf salad.
Speaker 2 (01:31:06):
Have you ever had that? Not frozen. I've had a
walld Or salad.
Speaker 8 (01:31:10):
This is what people say, but it's like it's it's
kosher for people to celebrate Passover, but it's it's like
pineapple juice and whipping cream and marshmallows and grapes and
pineapple and pecans, and it's all frozen. And she would
put it in this pan and we I'd scarf it up,
frozen Waldorf salad. But I had never known anyone else
who had ever made it, No friends, families. She also
(01:31:31):
made this stuff called ambrosia. This ambrosia salad right where
it's like coconut and it's mandarin oranges and it's you know,
it's uh, pineapple and whipped cream, and.
Speaker 2 (01:31:44):
You are the biggest pod.
Speaker 8 (01:31:48):
I go, Gramma can just turned this down. I'm trying
to eat this salad over here. And it was and
I'm not averse to coconut. Some people that you lose
them at coconut, but I'm in. But Knickers salad, I've
never once heard of that. And it looks, I don't
get me wrong, like a Snickers were hot off Halloween,
(01:32:08):
but milk and vanilla pudding mix and oh jeesus Christ
on the Cross.
Speaker 2 (01:32:13):
I would try it. It doesn't sound incredible to me,
but I would try it.
Speaker 8 (01:32:18):
Caramel sauce, Granny Smith, apple, snicker bars, I mean individually
like all those.
Speaker 2 (01:32:25):
But he just looks super gooey and Snickers salad baby
is making me hungry for Ambrosia salad. All right.
Speaker 8 (01:32:38):
This singer was in the not Terry Cath He's the
guy killed himself in Chicago. But this guy with the
lead singer, this guy he got all fat and you know,
he's the guy that was in the Yeah Rock documentary,
the singer from Ambrosia because they still go out, they
still do stuff.
Speaker 2 (01:32:55):
What was that guy's name? Uh God, I forgot David Pack.
David Pack was the original singer.
Speaker 8 (01:33:01):
And he's a little he's a little prickly about the
whole thing. But okay, anyway, I know, I'm sure somebody
will tell me in the breakdow Oh Snickers health is great.
Speaker 2 (01:33:12):
I'd never heard of it. And this entire article is about, Yeah,
you know how everybody in the Midwest loves this. I'm like,
I've know what the erin Corr show on.
Speaker 1 (01:33:20):
One hundred of it. You know, you think this guy's
gonna do one thing then he does another thing, then
a third thing happens, and it's a bummer because.
Speaker 2 (01:33:34):
You kind of just want him to keep doing that
middle thing. He's all very frustrating. The erin Cox show WMMS.
Speaker 9 (01:33:56):

was reading about a guy who got to snatched up.
I think this was in Montana because he was driving
and trying to relieve himself into a Budweiser can. Oh
if he was trying to make his own trucker bomb, right, yeah,
(01:35:46):
but why do we do this on this should be
the finals naked trucker bombs.
Speaker 6 (01:35:51):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (01:35:51):
You gotta get it into the into the beer can, right,
give the ladies a she weed, even it out. Yeah,
you don't want the guys to have an un fair
advantage or as if you want to. Yeah. The shenis
fifty three year old James Howard.
Speaker 8 (01:36:11):
Was rolling down the roadway and Montana slammed into the
back of a volkswagon that had two people in it.
He was in a Chevy suburban. That's no small vehicle.
Cop showed up and he had to tell the cop that.
Speaker 2 (01:36:31):
Well.
Speaker 8 (01:36:31):
The cop noticed that the guy had like a tall
boy in his right hand. He quickly put it in
the center console or whatever. When he handed it over,
he goes, that's full of p that's not beer.
Speaker 2 (01:36:42):
It's like dumb and dumber.
Speaker 8 (01:36:44):
Yeah, and he had, uh, he had rear ended the
other vehicle because he was trying to pee into the
can and it didn't work out. I'd be worried I'd
cut my tip on the You know, there's a very
sharp rim there around the.
Speaker 11 (01:36:59):
Unless it was all of those bottle cans, you know
what I mean, then there's the openings a little bigger.
But you said it was just a tall boy, yeah, yeah,
so that's just a regular pop top.
Speaker 2 (01:37:10):
Yeah.
Speaker 8 (01:37:11):
Driver the Volkswagen said he was at a stop light
when he saw lights approaching in his rear view mirror,
and he told his girlfriend to brace for impact because
he knew what was going to happen. And the guy
who hit him told cops that he had only had
one beer and that was it. But they were like,
but he was slurring his words and his pants were
wet with urine because yeah, he's trying to pee in
(01:37:33):
the end of the beer can.
Speaker 2 (01:37:35):
Well, you can't stop once it starts because that stings.
He told the cops that he had more than a
couple of DUIs. Quote end quote. It wasn't supposed to
be driving. I'm going to jail for an fing long time,
he told the cops. Hey, man, glass half full, right,
can half full? There's guys driving around with a dozen DUIs.
(01:37:58):
I don't know how they do it in Montana on
big sky Country, but here in Ohio, Florida of the North,
there's all kinds of people zigging in and out. I
had never made a trucker bomb until that day. I
was waiting for the tow truck when the station vehicle
broke down the cruise the day of the show cruise.
(01:38:19):
I uh, I couldn't hold it. I had to. It
was the first time in my life I'd ever done one.
I filled up a Dunkin Donuts cup. Yep.
Speaker 11 (01:38:28):
I felt pretty proud of myself, tho, I'm not gonna
lie to you. Dunkin Donuts, Dunkin Donuts. I had talked
about it with the kids because Cali was like, why
is there so many? When we're on our trip from
back from Virginia, It's like, why is there so many
like milk cartons and stuff on the side of the road.
Speaker 2 (01:38:42):
I'm like, honey, those are trucker bombs pissed jugs.
Speaker 11 (01:38:46):
She's like, oh, she noticed that they were out there,
but she wasn't looking at him to see like they
were filled with yell I understand, you know. I'm like, yeah,
there's a trucker bomb. She's like, you're kidding. I'm like, no,
they don't stop. Like, if he's got to go, he's
gonna just pee into that jug and then launch it
out the window. It's like, oh gross, Like yeah, yeah,
(01:39:07):
they can't stop down the trucker right a passage kitto.
Speaker 2 (01:39:10):
Yeah, every time they stop. That's money. The boys are
thirsty in Atlanta and there's beer in Texasana gonness it
down so well? I pooh, I cannot swoopee bet boop
beep beep boop, beat beepoop poop.
Speaker 8 (01:39:29):
Christine watching the show on YouTube from Parish, Florida, ro
how about that? I only hit that guy in the
back of a volkswagon. That's a very uncomfortable place. Yes,
let me get you in a very uncomfortable place, like
the back of a volkswagon. Yes, correct? Where is Parish, Florida?
Speaker 2 (01:39:49):
Is that near your mom? Down there off of the
Jimmy Buffett Memorial Highway. I don't know. Hold on, let's
take a piece.
Speaker 8 (01:39:54):
This is just north of Sarasota, across the bay from
Saint Peter's. So we're talking like between Tampa and Sarasota. Yeah,
all right, yeah, Parish, Florida. That is on the Gulf
of America side of Florida.
Speaker 2 (01:40:07):
Are we still doing that? Gulf of America? I don't know.
I just I just I googled it and zoomed out
and it says Gulf of America.
Speaker 8 (01:40:14):
So I knew people were gonna tell me about snicker
salad in the break. I've never heard of it. They
were chalking it up to some Midwest concoction, and people
are telling me.
Speaker 2 (01:40:28):
My mother in law makes it as a dip for apples.
Speaker 8 (01:40:31):
Somebody said, all right, alan apples, snicker salad is delicious.
You're both hydro cephalic. I like the the multi syllabic
insults that we get on this show.
Speaker 6 (01:40:44):
Right.
Speaker 8 (01:40:45):
We know our audience and they know us. Hydro What
we got water on the brain, rob is what this
person's trying to tell us. Hydro cephalis, right, water and
swelling on the brain. This person is implying because by
the way I didn't say. I didn't say it was
wasn't good. I've never had it before. I'd never heard
of it before. I only heard phallic and syphilis, so
(01:41:08):
I figured it DROs phallic something to do with it.
Speaker 2 (01:41:10):
Had that, but apparently not. Thank you, Alan, you gotta
try the grape salad with butterfinger. Yeah, grape and peanut butter.
I didn't say great tastes. I in fact said I
would try that. I didn't say anything bad. I know
I would try it.
Speaker 8 (01:41:27):
I try anything once, Alan, My family has all three
of those things. Ambrosio for Thanksgiving, Waldorf salad for Easter,
and Snicker salad for fall gatherings. It's incredible because it's sweet,
but the apples give it a tart flavor. Why use
the Granny Smiths? Well, yeah, but of course it's sweet.
It's got caramel sauce on it. Woof no, listen, uh,
(01:41:51):
I got a sweet tooth. I think I have it
pretty much under control. I would take a bite. I
always had a rule in the love Granny Smith I
like Snickers. When my kids growing up, I always said,
you can't say you don't like something if you haven't
tried it, So we would always I would always have
them try things. Then then if you don't like it, okay,
well we call them no thank you bites, right, you
(01:42:13):
gotta at least take a no thank you bite just
if you take it and you like it, keep going.
Speaker 2 (01:42:17):
If you don't, no thank you, not for me.
Speaker 8 (01:42:22):
I mean that was a more delicate way to do it.
When my older kids were a little I called it
you better put that yeah thing in your mouth.
Speaker 2 (01:42:30):
Yeah. They were called the clean your effing plate in
my house.
Speaker 17 (01:42:34):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (01:42:34):
I didn't come from a clean your plate family. And
you know what messages with me to this day. Honestly, like,
if I put something on my plate, I'm gonna eat it.
I can't like, I always will take less than what
I want in case I get full, because I don't
want to have to keep eating, so I'm beyond it.
Well I think that then you're not being wasteful. In
my forties though, I still do that, Like I'm like,
(01:42:55):
oh I I yeah, I it's on my plate. I
have to eat it. I don't like something, I'll eat it.
Oh why would you eat something you didn't like because
it's on my plate? Well, put if I took it,
push it off your plate, onto someone else's plate. I'm
not going to do that. It's rude. I have good nannies. No,
I'm just saying that somebody else might really want what
(01:43:16):
you don't want. Anybody want. This sucks, Sorry, Grandma, Yeah, oh, Grandma,
I'm sorry, certainly didn't mean to uh get you upset
like that. Sorry, Grandma. Nobody wants your food here. A
bunch of as right, a bunch of ass you. I
(01:43:37):
hate you.
Speaker 8 (01:43:38):
I go out, Holly wo Gee Whizz doesn't like you.
I'm starting to get that distinct impression.
Speaker 2 (01:43:54):
Yeah, I don't know why. Man, he surely does something
against you. Oh, this is rich Times.
Speaker 12 (01:44:00):
Befoord to listen to podcast yesterday you and Robert discussing
incest and how you made the comment that you didn't
have any cousins but you.
Speaker 2 (01:44:08):
I was like, what the hell are we telling? You
and Rob were discussing incests. I'm like, were we? Oh?
The Godfather?
Speaker 6 (01:44:12):
Right?
Speaker 2 (01:44:12):
The Godfather?
Speaker 8 (01:44:13):
Leslie watched The Godfather is like, why is there an
incest subplot in this movie?
Speaker 2 (01:44:19):
Hey?
Speaker 8 (01:44:19):
Well, hey, it's rich Don Jackson. Before you and Robert
talking about incests and.
Speaker 12 (01:44:24):
Discussed an incest, how you made the comment that you
didn't have any cousins. Well, you got cousins, you just
didn't grow up around them. And that's actually a little
bit more scarier because you could end up marrying a
relative without even knowing about it because you don't know
them by the way or know them as a relative.
I know, in the state of Virginia, when me and
my wife got married, the county clerk actually had to
do like a background check on our families just to
make sure that we weren't.
Speaker 2 (01:44:45):
Cousins or distantly related. Anyways, about your snoke, that.
Speaker 8 (01:44:48):
He's true, Thank you, rich I did have cousins, I
just didn't know them or grow up around them because
we didn't on my dad's side of the family. So yes,
that is an important distinction to make. I've told the
story about how my cousin hit me up when we
were in our forties. Our dads are brothers by email,
and she's living in Kansas, So yeah, I guess I
did you know? We grew up just with my mom's family,
(01:45:09):
and she had one brother who was didn't have kids.
Speaker 11 (01:45:15):
I grew up in a family with you, like we
saw extended family a lot. Good for you, the son
of the bitch extended family all the time. So I
would we would on Sundays, we would have dinner with
you know, my grandfathers, brothers and sisters and their families
and kids, and there would be a lot of people in.
Speaker 2 (01:45:34):
And out, a big Italian family. Huge. Yeah.
Speaker 11 (01:45:37):
So I had third and fourth cousins who I was
around all of the time that were horribly attractive. But
it was never anything that I was like, Okay, it's
a fourth cousin. It's okay, Like I can do what
I want. I would have been shot well.
Speaker 8 (01:45:57):
But it also has to be a two way street.
I mean, I mean, who's going to broach the subject? Hey,
maybe we should go in the other room and make
out right right, And I mean that's a leap.
Speaker 2 (01:46:08):
Hey, what are you doing after? Hey, I'm gonna be
in Grandma's living room. What are you doing? I'm gonna
be in there to you when I watch TV in
the lungdero flicks and chill. Maybe, yeah, what do you
think under that green blanket? How about that? Yeah?
Speaker 11 (01:46:21):
I just I could never but my aunt, no sorry,
my mother's cousin, not my aunt. They married people from
opposite sides of the family, like hurt my mother's first
cousin married my mother's first cousin from the other side
of the family, which I always thought was the weirdest
(01:46:42):
thing in the world.
Speaker 2 (01:46:43):
I would always say, like.
Speaker 11 (01:46:44):
The family stick, but when you think about it, it
wasn't because it was a completely separate side of the family,
you know what I mean, Like my mother's father, his
sister's kid, you know what I mean. And then my
grandmother's brother kid got married, and I always thought it
was very weird.
Speaker 2 (01:47:02):
But I don't know. I'm confused, are you There's a
lot going on there? Are you confused? Did I not
explain it? Well, no, no, you did. But that's got
nothing to do with me being confused. Well it does,
because that means I didn't do my job of explaining
that I got I hear somebody I didn't have cousins, right,
it's a whole on anything. It was weird from one
side or the other. And then they yeah, I got it.
(01:47:27):
I think I got it right.
Speaker 11 (01:47:29):
It'd be like if I don't let me think, I
don't know, how would that go. I don't know either way.
They weren't blood relatives, they weren't like relative relatives.
Speaker 2 (01:47:37):
Yeah, it was right.
Speaker 11 (01:47:40):
By marriage, yeah, which I still thought was too close
for comfort.
Speaker 8 (01:47:45):
Yeah, but if you're not blood related, I think all
bets are all. They could just as easily be somebody
you met, you know, if you met him at a
bar and then you find out later on, oh, by marriage.
You know that's not the weirdest thing. Well, it's like
your two phones guy, Yeah, drilling his cousin and he
didn't care. Kevin Gates didn't care. Found out it was
his cousin and he's like, hey man, we've been thugging
(01:48:05):
all this way through. I'm gonna stop now. This guy's smart.
He knows what's up. Goe for the cousin and won't
for the load. Yeah, if you're getting down on like
(01:48:25):
a second or third cousin and then it goes public,
right like people are asking you about it in interviews.
Speaker 2 (01:48:33):
Yeah, he's that's right. I didn't know. But then when
I found out, it was too late because that booty
was Yeah, yet Dustin down in Georgia checked in Allan,
it's justin down here, George. Man. You know, I got
a call and clear up some of this damn truck.
Speaker 18 (01:48:55):
Bomb stuff that y'all talking about. I'm currently sitting in Shanahan, Illinois,
waiting to pick up and cake a Key, Illinois and
go to Hodge's South Carolina.
Speaker 2 (01:49:10):
So, but tell rob who the hell we uses a
milk carton? And I don't, I don't.
Speaker 18 (01:49:17):
I don't even know where you could buy a milk
carton unless you buy like a half a gallon out
of a grocery store.
Speaker 2 (01:49:23):
But nobody is taking a pish, as y'all like to say,
in a milk carton.
Speaker 18 (01:49:29):
And another thing is it is damn near impossible to
take a pish while driving a semi truck down the road.
I have tried, and you just cannot get relaxed. You
have to pull over and stop. But uh, but I
do pen bottles quite a bit. I just put them
in the trash hand and then dump them in the dun't.
Speaker 2 (01:49:51):
But just want to clear some of that up for y'all.
Nobody's paying and milk carton, yes they are, see you
buy Robbie can't hear you, I know, but you can
tell in there, and can Kaki Illinois? Tell tell the
bunch of them that we saw full of pea, that
they weren't filled with pea any chance it was lemonade.
Speaker 11 (01:50:11):
There were gallon milk jugs, and there were half gallon
milk jugs that we saw. Maybe they were orange juice
containers because they are similar. Yeah, but but definite, one
hundred percent. He can't tell you what you didn't see.
That's right, sir, and uh. I didn't say everybody stop,
(01:50:34):
doesn't stop.
Speaker 2 (01:50:35):
I just said it's more efficient to do it that way. Right,
to get off the exit. Get back on all the
nonsense you're dicking around. Oh you know what, maybe I
do want to pack a gum no that goes away
if you pull over on the side of the road.
Some people pointing out that you and I went past it. Two.
Speaker 8 (01:50:54):
It didn't really jump out at me that you were
talking about. Even a fourth cousin is too close for comfort.
Come on, I can't hit every single one of them.
I don't know Ellen. Wasn't Rudy Giuliani married to a cousin? Yes,
and look what happened to him. Somebody wrote the same
(01:51:17):
situation with two of my siblings. My aunt's husband's nephew
is their dad. Now see I'm lost siblings aunt's husband.
Even the people who are nephew is their dead.
Speaker 2 (01:51:32):
I was gonna say even the people who are in
it and doing it and engaging in this activity have
to run a friggin float chart.
Speaker 11 (01:51:38):
Rob's family tree winds together like a game of twister.
This is distant family.
Speaker 8 (01:51:43):
Yeah, but it's also like a step Listen, what's one
of the most popular Genrejean in pornography, Rob's step relatives.
Speaker 2 (01:51:51):
Yeah, I don't know how that blew up. I genuinely don't.
I think it was.
Speaker 11 (01:51:57):
I think it all happened because it was a sub
category because it started with the step mom stuff.
Speaker 2 (01:52:02):
This was popular.
Speaker 11 (01:52:03):
Yeah, but how because people wanted to watch milk porn.
So that was just a way that it was there.
Speaker 2 (01:52:10):
It has to be. That's the only way that that
makes sense. Well, something that developed in other things. Yeah, something,
but it's not blood.
Speaker 8 (01:52:19):
Listen, if you got a full head of steam in
your horny, as long as it's not blood, it's all
systems go.
Speaker 2 (01:52:25):
If you go to family reunions to meet Wilman, you
might be a redneck. Uh huh. If your family tree
is a stump, you might big. If your ports collapses
(01:52:46):
and kills more than four dogs. If you ever mode
your grass and found an automobile neck if your son
comes to your eighth grade graduation, you might be if
(01:53:12):
you divorce your wife and you still call her says
yeah mind me, yeah, all right, wellieway, thank you.
Speaker 8 (01:53:24):
Dustin appreciate that he contends quite vehemently.
Speaker 2 (01:53:29):
There are no tricker bombs in milk bottles.
Speaker 6 (01:53:31):
Rob.
Speaker 2 (01:53:33):
If your wallet and your dog have a chain, you
might be a red man if your wife surprises you
with an anniversary gift of his and her spit umps.
Aye I hai hey hol ray.
Speaker 1 (01:53:52):
All right, selling car show on one hundred points of it,

Yes, Yes day, Yes day, yesday.
Speaker 2 (01:54:46):
I got that turp to la. By the way, I've
been burying the lead on that.
Speaker 8 (01:54:52):
Every afternoon this week, right around five o'clock's about eight
minutes from now, sending people to our twenty twenty six
Alter Ego Festival, Green Day. It's twenty one pilots, Sublime,
Cage the Elephant, Good Charlotte. Remember them, mister Cameron Diez
(01:55:13):

accomplished wives. Anyway, five o'clock every afternoon this week, that
trip to Lau and a pal, send you to the event,
fly out, put you up, get you a thousand bucks.
Speaker 2 (01:55:33):
It's completely sold out. That happens every single year.
Speaker 8 (01:55:37):
It'll happen January seventeenth at the Kia Forum right there
in lovely and bucolic Inglewood, California.
Speaker 2 (01:55:46):
And if you've never been, oh it's a scene, man.
So that trip on the way.
Speaker 8 (01:55:53):
Camalie's off tonight, but a big win last night here
at home against the Milwaukee Bucks. Won eighteen one of six.
Tomorrow night, seven o'clock tip off, six thirty pre game.
As soon as we get out, they will be hosting
the Rockets of Houston, Texas. The Pacers will come to town.
Clippers will be here as well. The oh god, we
(01:56:14):
were talking about this a couple of weeks ago, and
they've already eighty six the Cleveland stop on the Great
Lakes Cruise. I wish I hadn't already spent thirty six
thousand dollars on this thing, Rob, I was really I
went all in on the Great Lakes Cruise. There is
(01:56:36):
a company called the American Cruise Line, and they were
making a whole big deal about the fact that Cleveland
was going to be part of their Great Lakes Cruise.
People who were like, well, I'd like to be on
a boat just in more of a geographically confined area.
American Cruise Lines is a very fast growing company. They're
(01:56:59):
based here in the United States, and they were going
to be launching that cruise from Cleveland. It turns out
Cleveland's not on the itinerary at all anymore, which has
got to be a bummer because, boy, with respect, if
you're going to go on a Great Lakes cruise, you
know you're not going to Vienna. So they will instead
(01:57:22):
launch from Buffalo, New York, and their only port of
call in Ohio will be Toledo.
Speaker 2 (01:57:28):
Boy, imagine that.
Speaker 6 (01:57:30):
Now.
Speaker 8 (01:57:31):
I don't understand how you get here, because it's not
like something fell apart. They said they couldn't find a
suitable docking location. You guys have spent an amount of
time on the weekends at the Leather Stallion probably might
run into the same situation. But this isn't something that
just happens overnight, right, I mean, you already have your
locations set before you even announce here's the itinerary. So
(01:57:54):
I'm curious what happened. We just couldn't find the right
place to dock in Cleveland.
Speaker 2 (01:58:01):
You couldn't, So they they're going to do Buffalo and Toledo.
Speaker 8 (01:58:11):
Most cruise ships, of course, you've seen them, right, most
cruise ships. The port of Cleveland is right there by
Browns Stadium. So I'm not sure why these guys couldn't
figure it out. So if you bought tickets, now listen,
if you live here and bought tickets, I don't know
(01:58:34):
what you were looking to do, but it's not going
to be uh, not long after announcing the whole big
thing that it's not going to stop in Cleveland. The
fourteen day American Great Lakes Route rob fourteenth days between
Cleveland and Milwaukee. That's the fourteen day, the nine day
(01:58:57):
between Cleveland and Syracuse, New York. Those were the planned roots. Instead,
both of them will launch from Buffalo. Still too long,
nine days, fourteen days on Lake Erie, right, I mean
it's you know, if you take one of those Alaskan cruises,
you go up the straight there, you know, what I mean.
And then you'll get off and go in these little
(01:59:19):
towns or whatever stand bears and I guess they're like
all whales. Okay, yeah, I would. I would Alaskan cruises
on a bucket list, and I do cruises. Yeah, oh yeah, man,
how do you not want to see that.
Speaker 2 (01:59:34):
Polar bears? They're all skinny? Now that's depressing. Well, if
I get there quick enough, they'll still be alive. Yeah,
so I can gauk at them, right, throw them a
bottle of coke, yes, all right? And see icebergs and
that kind of stuff.
Speaker 8 (01:59:54):
Well, you are a Titanic nerd, so I imagine that
the icebergs probably.
Speaker 2 (01:59:58):
Hold a lot of life for you. Drink some glacier water.
Speaker 8 (02:00:02):
Glacier water, yeah, yeah, I mean if you were to
you know what, you leave Seattle, you go to catch
a can and juno and all that. I mean, it's probably,
but you're like going like the cruises that I've been on.
I've been on three cruises and they were like to
the Bahamas. Right, you're going an Alaskan cruise. I know
it's very popular, but I mean you're going up the coast. Yeah,
(02:00:25):
so you're not like out in the ocean. Well, you
don't want to be out in the ocean up there.
That's when you just you see this stuff on the coast. Yeah,
but I look a bear. Hey, look he's waiting. He's
got a a scarf.
Speaker 2 (02:00:38):
Oh my god, is that really anchorage? Yeah, that's what
I want to see.
Speaker 8 (02:00:42):
I mean, I know Glacier Bay National Parks up there,
and that would be pretty cool. But it's like, you know,
if you they ain't cheap, No, to go off the coast,
you got to fly to Vancouver and then go to
Skagway or whatever.
Speaker 2 (02:00:57):
You know. But people swear by him. Stop loafing up
my cheerios.
Speaker 8 (02:01:00):
Man, People who have gone swear by them. Yeah, I
gotta go to see the potentially last polar Bears. Of
what you're saying, no Ah, they'll be all right.
Speaker 4 (02:01:15):
Now.
Speaker 8 (02:01:15):
Hey, I need to fly out of fair Banks. Is
there anybody who can come pick me up? So like
a motor coach or something. By all the polar bear
are gone. They were all teats up when I got
up here.
Speaker 2 (02:01:27):
Went they went, no, no, you're further No.
Speaker 6 (02:01:32):
Yeah.
Speaker 8 (02:01:33):
You could take a twelve day Alaskan cruise for three
thousand dollars a person or up.
Speaker 2 (02:01:38):
It's too long? How about that? That's too long?
Speaker 8 (02:01:42):
But when you think about saying, is if you're gonna
fly out and go up the coast, you're not going
to do it on a long weekend.
Speaker 2 (02:01:48):
No, but the twelve days a long time. Seven days? Seven?
Speaker 8 (02:01:51):
Oh, I think you said twelve. No, no, no, there
are a bunch of different ones. I'm asking you seven days. Fine,
seven's better. I could do seven days. Okay, days though
for three grand isn't terrible. What about because they have
the option you can take a cruise seventeen or more days. No,
because my question is, how the hell do you squeeze
seventeen days out of the Alaskan coast?
Speaker 2 (02:02:13):
Well, probably you're probably doing a lot of stuff. You're
sitting a lot of times at the portocol a twenty
eight day Arctic circle solstice. That's probably badass.
Speaker 8 (02:02:24):
You leave from Seattle, you go up the coast, you
going back down, You go to Anchorage and know them,
and you're the Dutch harbor.
Speaker 2 (02:02:30):
See that's probably cool as hell when you think about it,
you're Dutch harbor. But aren't you gonna see the same
polar bears? Well, then it goes beyond the polar bears
at that point. Now you're now you're seeing crab fisherman.
Oh that's what it is.
Speaker 11 (02:02:42):
Yeah, you gate wave to the guys from the Deadliest Catch.
You're rolling up there at Dutch Harbor, right, Yeah, you're
on the cruise. It's cold out. Yeah yeah, yeah, you
go outside, you look up. When you're on those cruises,
you're not out there to be warm. And you know
we're saying so you'd get a tan.
Speaker 2 (02:02:58):
Yeah.
Speaker 11 (02:02:59):
No, listen, people swear the Northern Lights and people who
are on them. Yeah, oh yeah, I got that's someday
for sure. I just I don't know if I could
do more than a week end.
Speaker 8 (02:03:08):
I mean there's the seventeen day Dnali and Yukon where
you go way inland. All right, there's there's the cruise,
but then you're like part of its flying. You got
like the train. That's a whole thing.
Speaker 2 (02:03:20):
But don't you think it is like fifty five hundred
bucks a person rop enough's enough at a certain point though, Yeah,
you know what I mean, Like that's to go home. Oh,
I mean a week anywhere, it doesn't matter where I am.
I don't I've never been on a vacation in my
life where after a week's time, I wasn't like, all right,
I'm good, Yeah, time to get out of here. It's
time to go. Yeah.
Speaker 11 (02:03:39):
You know, I've I've never people I hear going to
I could stay here forever. I've never had that feeling
in my life.
Speaker 2 (02:03:48):
Well, because no matter where you are, well, no, no
matter where you go, there you are.
Speaker 1 (02:03:54):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (02:03:55):
A panel appeared on the window sill with a circle out.
Oh what a side.
Speaker 10 (02:04:02):
The mystery grew in the fading line, snowflake's full whispers grow?
Speaker 2 (02:04:10):
What's behind that panel's glow? That's the glory?
Speaker 6 (02:04:18):
What could it be?
Speaker 2 (02:04:20):
A portal to joy or a mystery?
Speaker 5 (02:04:24):
Jingle?
Speaker 19 (02:04:24):
Bells ring as the stories roll of Cleveland's own Festa.
Speaker 2 (02:04:31):
Glory.
Speaker 8 (02:04:33):
I imagine zero people will be surprised when I tell
you that Magic has yet to play this song.
Speaker 2 (02:04:39):
Rob you asked about it, yes, yeah, of course numerous
times and listen. And I can't exactly blame them. They
do have an image to protect.
Speaker 8 (02:04:46):
However, their promos very specifically say like classics and modern
and then it says it refers to like novelty songs
or you know, I did get a great photo though,
from a listener, and I will keep this person anonymous
for obvious reasons, but I'll show you the photo and
the live stream. Working on a friend's house. And the
(02:05:15):
former owners were a gay couple from way back in
the day, and they have a glory hole in their
basement bathroom. I'll show you the photo here.
Speaker 2 (02:05:29):
Look at this.
Speaker 8 (02:05:30):
There's a giant so there's the toilet up against the wall,
and then there's like a saloon door right that would
go in front of it. And there is a giant
hole cut in the swinging stall door there, and there's
a sticker above it that says warning mature content.
Speaker 2 (02:05:47):
Boy.
Speaker 4 (02:05:47):
That is it?
Speaker 2 (02:05:48):
Do you put that in the Zillow listing? Is what
I want to know. That's sharp. No, you shoot around that,
see because there's a you mean you take shit? You
take photos around it.
Speaker 8 (02:06:05):
You don't want to show them the honcho stickers that
are all over the back of the door. No, all right,
pony Boy magazine stacked up.
Speaker 2 (02:06:14):
I mean, what do you do? Actually, if you're going
to sell that, you get rid of the door, right,
you replace the door? Yeah?
Speaker 8 (02:06:19):
I think so, I imagine that. Yeah, the new owners
thought it was hilarious and so for now they're keeping that.
I mean, it is a conversation piece, right if you're
the new owners of the home and you are making
a variety of changes, but you're also you know what
comes with the home ownership or whatever. You might have
people over and you're showing them the new digs or whatever,
(02:06:39):
and you're like, hey, and check this out here.
Speaker 2 (02:06:43):
Someone's using that bathroom, and all of a sudden someone
takes it literally.
Speaker 8 (02:06:45):
Just I would like to send these people and Alan
Cox show sticker for that door, yes, right above it
under well, there's already a stick of the mature content.
Speaker 2 (02:06:55):
Sticker is already above it. I would like to send
them a sticker or below it below below yeahlow low.
And then but again, I only know the person who
sent me this. I don't know the actual owners of
the house. But that's great. What an added value. Everybody's
looking for added value.
Speaker 8 (02:07:16):
You know, the housing market couldn't be more cutthroat, rob
and so there, you know, every opportunity you have to
have the competitive edge is good.
Speaker 2 (02:07:27):
I'm I'm doing a ton of little things right now
to put it on the market. Uh huh.
Speaker 11 (02:07:33):
And that sucks too, man, I hate putting money into
the house. Like I'm just hoping every dollar I spend
is coming back, you.
Speaker 6 (02:07:39):
Know, right.
Speaker 2 (02:07:40):
But it's dumb stuff. Cosmetic stuff, yeah, little just nitpicky
things that I know. So I don't like the way
that looks. So I'm just gonna do it, okay, like
we did. I painted that Melissa, I say, Melissa painted
the stairs to the basement. But those.
Speaker 11 (02:07:57):
Tiles, the square, the carpet thing for the steps. Ye
bought those things like that. Putting up a railing here
and there, finishing off a room. Just here, sand done,
shut up by it, Get me out, little tweaks away
from these goddamn ducks. Is the alter ego do those
go to?
Speaker 2 (02:08:17):
Is that a text thing? Yeah?
Speaker 11 (02:08:19):
All right, people are telling me them work. Well, so
here's the thing. I got the same complaints yesterday. It
does work. That is the right code.
Speaker 2 (02:08:27):
There was checked it and those there was an issue
with the outage, cloud flare or whatever.
Speaker 11 (02:08:32):
Yes, so there's no bounce backs because something went down
yesterday and you're not getting the bounce you're not getting
thank you. We'll let you know if you're a winner,
you're not getting those.
Speaker 2 (02:08:43):
So it is working. You're just not getting bounced back message.
Speaker 8 (02:08:46):
Gotcha, okay, So rest assured if you are playing along
trying to win that trip, they are getting your text.
Speaker 2 (02:08:52):
And also our buzz remedy has been fixed.
Speaker 11 (02:08:57):
I was told last night the the sound in the
background that people were bitching about is gone.
Speaker 2 (02:09:05):
These guys worked on it late last night.
Speaker 11 (02:09:07):
It was just it was I don't know, okay, I'll
explain it to you later, because it's it's kind of
a little more than you would care about or the
average person would care about. But basically, we use crap equipment,
and crap equipment fails, and that's what happened.
Speaker 2 (02:09:26):
So they fixed what they think it was. So if
you still have a buzz, let me know. But if
you took the time to send the email yesterday, thank you,
because I got a lot of them and I passed
them all on and that's what they came up with.
So it sounds.
Speaker 11 (02:09:39):
I listened this morning, I drive in and I had
it really loud and there was no noise, so there
should be plenty of floor there now.
Speaker 8 (02:09:47):
Okay, good, And then the text rest assured, we are
getting them. You're just not getting the confirmation correct. Getting
the confirmation correct, Alan, I drove fifteen hours eight from
Cleveland to Cleveland from Sioux Falls, and I filled three
gatorade bottles.
Speaker 11 (02:10:09):
I've never, like I said, pulled over. That was the
or when I was waiting for the tow trucks, the
only time I ever had to do it.
Speaker 2 (02:10:15):
Have you ever done it? No trucker bomb, I have not.
Speaker 4 (02:10:19):
No.
Speaker 8 (02:10:20):
I will find I will regulate my water intake, and
I will find a wrist stick.
Speaker 2 (02:10:24):
I can tell you one thing. Nobody uses milk cartons.
Speaker 8 (02:10:28):
Well, you know what though, people are telling me that.
You know, when you say milk carton, people are thinking
the cardboard.
Speaker 2 (02:10:34):
Have you seen me lately from the jug? Jug? Plastic?
Speaker 8 (02:10:38):
So maybe that's the distinction that Dustin was trying to
make pissed jug as opposed to a pea carton. Correct, Alan,
I am a mail carrier. I'm a male lady in Akron.
You wouldn't believe how many milk jugs and water jugs
and mountain new bottles are strewn all over the mail
trucks when I get in them from the men who
(02:11:01):
don't want to drive to a bathroom. So her male
colleagues are filling the USPS truck up that she grabs
the next day with trucker.
Speaker 2 (02:11:09):
Bombs, animals put he in usps W m MS Rob
on social media.
Speaker 11 (02:11:17):
Hell's the matter with you at the end of the day,
Like you know that somebody else is gonna drive that
thing tomorrow and and when you take it with you
take it with you, your dirty bastard.
Speaker 2 (02:11:27):
Why would you leave that for someone, especially a woman? Comeback,
Jesus off, little crash, Come one. What I like to do?
Speaker 13 (02:11:41):
Peepee poo, peepee, poo, poo poo, I like to do
poo poo, pepe poo, poo, poo, pee pee poo, poo,
pee pee, pee, pee poo, poo, poo, oh, peepee.
Speaker 6 (02:11:50):
What I like to do?
Speaker 3 (02:11:51):
Pee pee poo, peepee, poo, poo pooh.
Speaker 15 (02:11:53):
I like to doo too, poo poo, peep, pe poo.
Speaker 2 (02:11:56):
The Car Show on one hundred point. It seems a
little unfair that you can watch our live stream but
we can't see you. But we'll fix that tonight. Outside
your window.
Speaker 19 (02:12:18):
Show on seven doublemms. Hey, congrats to Laura.
Speaker 8 (02:12:33):
Laura Sayer maybe is her name out in Amherst got
the first pair of tickets this week for Motley Crue.
They're playing next to August celebrating forty five years as
a band. They're going to be at Blossom Extreme and
Tesla or with them. I think Tesla is gonna be
her twice in the next year. Yeah, they're coming in February, right, Yeah,
the mgm Artfield Parker. So if you're a Tesla fan,
(02:12:54):
it's an embarrassment of riches.
Speaker 2 (02:12:56):
With the great live Tesla. Have you ever seen them?
Oh hundred years ago? Like that first tour, I saw
a really good band. And yeah, Jeff Keith nuttier than squirrelpoo,
but y old boy is he is? He could still
sing then guys ninety pounds soaking wet. Yeah.
Speaker 8 (02:13:11):
Yeah, they're from California. He has in Tesla, West Coast
bands something like that anyway, Motley Crue, Tesla in Extreme
from Boston. Uh, Gary Cheron still from Extreme, yeah all right?
And Nude Old Betton Court all right, Nuno Betencourt.
Speaker 2 (02:13:29):
Yeah, that's Extreme those guys, I tell you, bro, If
if there was no other bands around that time, those
dudes would have been the best band out there. I
wonder why Extreme wasn't bigger, Like more than Words was
their big song, what they had wholehearted, they had get
(02:13:50):
the funk out.
Speaker 8 (02:13:51):
Yeah, Nuno Bettencourt is an unbelievable guitar. Unbel I wonder
why extreme. I mean, they kind of had their moment,
But is it because Sharon went to Van Halen. No, Okay,
that was after like all that, right, Yeah, I think
that they were just they were on that b level
of what those bands were at that time.
Speaker 2 (02:14:11):
I wonder why.
Speaker 11 (02:14:12):
I think it just sometimes luck, right, like they were
obviously much better than a lot of those other bands.
Speaker 17 (02:14:17):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (02:14:19):
But and frankly, you don't meet a lot of Nuno's
no hell over the top way, dude, trust me, I've
had a million of that conversation about that band over
the year. People. Dude, my cousin, I swear to god, Dude,
my cousin's first uh first grade teacher was Nudo Beton
(02:14:41):
caught second cousin's best friend back to like the Sister
Wives cousins conversation. Yeah, yeah, yeah. He came in one day, dude,
and he did show and tell with the kids and
he brought in h Gary Sharona. They played more than
words in front of the whole class and it was
freaking killer. Wow.
Speaker 8 (02:14:58):
Yeah, Nuno Bettencourt was Portuguese, though he wasn't from Boston.
Speaker 11 (02:15:04):
Oh yeah, yeah, yeah, Okay, he's Portuguese, but I don't
think he's like I mean, so are you? Yeah yeah,
but I don't think. Maybe maybe he is. I could
be wrong, but I know they're of that area. Yeah,
of Boston kid.
Speaker 2 (02:15:19):
Huh.
Speaker 8 (02:15:20):
Google questions is Nuno Betancourt considered a good guitarist, and
Google says yes, Nuno Betancurt is widely considered a very good,
if not great, guitarist. Ouch, what do you know, Google? Yeah,
you couldn't do you pick up a guitar and try
to play AI.
Speaker 11 (02:15:38):
Wow J Dix. Yeah, Now you got me wondering. I
know he's Portuguese obviously, but he's American and he's right.
Speaker 2 (02:15:47):
I don't know. I know they're a Boston band. I
didn't know if they were all from Boston.
Speaker 8 (02:15:51):
I think maybe he was born because because it was
Gary Sharon and the drummer who started Extreme and.
Speaker 2 (02:15:58):
He was born in Portugal, moved to the United States
when he was four. All right, there you go, all right,
well and any rock Boston his entire life. Dude, he's
still there. Let's hope his visa's up to date. He
still bangs around Boston some Every once in a while
he'll show up, MOMMI can and play over there.
Speaker 8 (02:16:17):
He's probably like Regional Royalty, isn't he? Oh yeah, like
he could nudo Bettencourka Walker on Boston. Everybody knows Gary Charon,
same thing. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah yeah.
Speaker 2 (02:16:26):
Those kids are a big deal.
Speaker 8 (02:16:27):
Anyway, I will have those Motley Crue tickets for you
all this week. It is for next August. They are
not on sale until Friday morning. Some people are curious why,
and I guess just because the calendar showed up.
Speaker 1 (02:16:39):
Why.
Speaker 8 (02:16:39):
They're celebrating forty years of Theater of Pain, which is
widely kind of considered when Motley Crue kind of went
off the rails.
Speaker 2 (02:16:49):
Compared to the first few albums they did. Theater of
Pain was kind of a flaccid departure, if you will.
And there's a lot of stuff going on in the
band right then, right, it's something. It is celebrating the
chaos of Motley Crue.
Speaker 8 (02:17:04):
I think is yes, so, but I mean Theater of
Pain is when I bailed off Motley Crue. Now few
years later they come back with Doctor Feel Good, and
you were like, oh, these guys are you know, they're
kind of back to doing whatever they're doing.
Speaker 2 (02:17:15):
But my Corey.
Speaker 11 (02:17:17):
I text him in the break and I'm like, when
are you talking to Nikky? He goes, I recorded it,
and he said, I'm going to play it back throughout
the night. He said, I'll play the first one after
you guys get off, and then play him throughout the night.
Speaker 4 (02:17:28):
Oh.
Speaker 2 (02:17:28):
I talk to him about everything. He's like, it was
a dream come true. Yeah. Of course.
Speaker 8 (02:17:33):
Last time I had Nicky six on this show was
on Saint Patrick's Day and I was half in the bag.
This was over ten years ago and we were playing
at radio show he did called six Cents. Oh yeah,
and my friend Carrie Kayseum was his first co host,
Casey Kaysum's daughter. And when I was out doing meeting
(02:17:54):
with some premier people of this syndication arm of this Country,
a company many years ago, they were walking me through
their studios because I was going to be doing some
national fill ins and they go and this is Nicky
Six's studio and I'm like, yeah, but the guy's never
in here, He's never seen this studio.
Speaker 10 (02:18:11):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (02:18:11):
I was like, it was like this palatial, goth decorated studio.
Speaker 8 (02:18:16):
I mean it looked awesome. I was like, sinse Yeah,
I'm like, can I do my show from in here?
Speaker 13 (02:18:23):
Oh?
Speaker 2 (02:18:23):
It's great.
Speaker 11 (02:18:24):
That show was good for like the first year it
was on, because it was the first time you heard
those Nicky stories.
Speaker 8 (02:18:31):
The stories are great. I just I was always thrown off.
I did not care for his speaking voice. No, but
I love it sounds really petty. But I don't mean
it like that.
Speaker 11 (02:18:41):
Like when he would get into like the stuff they
were doing on the road. Yeah, I loved that. But
then you like, there's only so many of those stories
that you could hear, and you're like, okay, let me
guess Nikki in this version you did a boatload a
blow well and then went to the troubadoor Okay.
Speaker 2 (02:19:01):
Cool. I mean it's also just with the passage of time,
so many people were hip to those stories.
Speaker 8 (02:19:06):
So like, not his fault, you know what, I mean,
He's gonna tell his stories. But anyway, Yeah, so okay.
Speaker 2 (02:19:13):
So Nicky six with Corey Roddick tonight on the Buzzer
talking about Motley Crue, the forty fifth anniversary, the band,
forty years of theater Payne. You know what else is
celebrating forty years today exactly. Calvin and Hobbes. Oh, I'm
a big greatest cartoon comic strip ever. Now it's number
(02:19:34):
two for me. I'm a Bloom County man. But Calvin
and Hobbes, which began, I think right here in Cleveland, Ohio.
Bill Watterson, who still lives out here. Really yeah, he
is from I think he lives in Cleveland Heights. Oh,
I didn't know that.
Speaker 8 (02:19:48):
He grew up in Chagrin Falls, and I think he
began the whole thing here. And this is a guy
who like got to the point as big as Calvin
and Hobbes was got to the point where he's like,
I don't know that I have any more stories to tell,
and he bailed, he like Dave Chappelle did, out of there.
Speaker 2 (02:20:06):
And he could have kept going.
Speaker 8 (02:20:07):
I mean, Calvin and Hobbes back in the day, you know,
a syndicated comic strip, yep.
Speaker 2 (02:20:12):
And it only ran I think for like a decade. So,
but the books and the thing I have the book
it had a real.
Speaker 8 (02:20:20):
Ten years to me does not seem like a long
time when you have these friggin strips that have been
around forever. But it had such an outsized influence. I
think in pop culture, when you think of like prominent
comic strips, you might you do have to be a
gen x er to remember bloom County, But a lot
of people remember the Far Side and Calvin and Hobbs.
Speaker 2 (02:20:41):
Launching.
Speaker 8 (02:20:42):
By the way, I can't imagine that the guy would
have ever foreseen a time where an iconic character of
his would be used primarily to pee on other people's
automobile logos. Yeah, always dumb, kind of make you feel
good in the parking lot every day. Take it a
whiz on a on a Michigan side or logo. Yeah, anything, right,
(02:21:05):
anything anything you don't like? Uh, there's uh, there's the
kid peeing on it. Calvin is the kid. Hobbes was
his stuffed tiger. It's still one of my favorite, uh
strips ever. I had it on my desk for a
long long time.
Speaker 2 (02:21:26):
I mean, I think it probably is like the last
great comic strip, right, I think so?
Speaker 11 (02:21:34):
Yeah, I mean what was I don't read them anymore,
so I guess I don't know, but maybe there's something great.
Speaker 8 (02:21:39):
I mean, back in the day everybody had like Beetle
Bailey and all the crap I'm talking about like gen
X comic strips. Right, we have bloom County, we had
Calvin and Hobbes, we had Blondie, some people like Dilbert.
Dilbert not so much. Yeah, that was the family circus
was around forever. Piscattian meat bulbs. My mom always had
(02:22:01):
a family circus circle cutting. I cut out because they
were they were in a circle. Family circus cut out
and magneted to the fridge. But yeah, Bill Watterson, I
think is still out in this part of the country.
Speaker 11 (02:22:16):
I had no idea. Yeah I would have. I'll start
carrying my book around if I ever bump into him.
Speaker 2 (02:22:21):
You should.
Speaker 11 (02:22:22):
But there was a there was one in particular where
he goes outside, he puts his mittens on and stuff.
So like the first shot is him getting all bundled
up and he walks outside and he makes this face,
and then the third slide is like a different angle
of the face, like his noses crunched up, and then
the next one is the exact same thing, and the
final one and he's just him looking at the at
(02:22:43):
what would be the camera and he says, don't you
hate it when your booger's freeze? And it's the dumbest
thing in the world, but it made me laugh. I
had it on my desk for years. Yeah, oh I
loved it.
Speaker 13 (02:22:53):
No.
Speaker 8 (02:22:53):
I think he's a guy who pieced out and then
kind of did a JD.
Speaker 2 (02:22:58):
Salinger. I don't know that anybody.
Speaker 8 (02:23:01):
He's still live, but he like, you know, mid nineties,
So Calvin Hobbs has been gone for thirty years. He
was like, I'm done, thank you so much for your
support and blah blah blah. But I've done what I
wanted to do and that's it. He's not a guy
that you ever see show up on anything.
Speaker 10 (02:23:20):
You know.
Speaker 8 (02:23:20):
I'm sure plenty of people would love to talk to
the guy. I want you find it here, let me
find it here and just typing Calvin and Hobbs boogers.
It's him walking off the step and then his no
frozen boogers there it is all right, Yeah, that's he
walks off a step. Yeah, makes a face, covers his
(02:23:44):
face with his mittens. Don't you hate it when your
booger's freeze?
Speaker 11 (02:23:47):
But that face, just that second slide, it's just so great.
And this is the time of year when it starts
to happen. Yeah, frozen bugs, Frozen bugs. Hellan, what about
Marma Duke.
Speaker 8 (02:24:05):
I remember mar You know, when I was a kid,
I was drawing all the time, like a thousand other kids.
Speaker 2 (02:24:10):
I thought I wanted to be an artist. And I
did draw for a long long time.
Speaker 8 (02:24:14):
And so when I was a kid, my parents every
Birthday and Christmas they were buying me books on how
to draw, and so some of them were like how
to draw your favorite cartoon characters. Then I got to
the point where they were buying me anatomy books because
I was getting into much more detailed drawing. Now, I
said that I was interested in drawing much longer than
(02:24:35):
I actually was interested in drawing, because the anatomy books
had naked people in them. Yeah, and so I went
study with those books, probably for a good year when
I was eleven. But yeah, but it would teach you
how to draw like the human form and all that,
you know, but you start out with how to draw
Popeye and Superman. And so Marma Duke was in that
(02:24:56):
first how to draw your you know, your comic strips,
oh Bailey, And that's probably still somewhere in my mom's house,
that first drawing book that I had I'm trying to
think of what other comic strips Stephen Kin says, Rex Morgan,
m d Yeah, Maryworth, but Mary Worth.
Speaker 2 (02:25:18):
I remember was it Dagwood or was it Blondie. It
was Blondie, right, Dagwood was Blondie's husband, right, but the
comic the strip was called Blondie, right, Yes, Okay, let's
see Garfield.
Speaker 8 (02:25:30):
I was way in a Garfield is like a junior
high kid or middle school round days.
Speaker 10 (02:25:35):
Right.
Speaker 8 (02:25:36):
Loved Garfield because I liked those clean lines. Again, this
is when I was drawing a lot of like cartoon characters.
I was trying to create my own cartoon characters, and
those Garfield as Jim Davis clean Garfield lines.
Speaker 2 (02:25:49):
I loved it. Oh, the Far Side Doonesbury was another one.
Speaker 6 (02:25:52):
I liked.
Speaker 2 (02:25:52):
Your Side was great far Side when you grew up
a little bit, you kind of once you started Duonsbury
was the one.
Speaker 8 (02:25:58):
I remember that, like the first one that was like
adult themed, like it maybe laugh. And then it was
far Side Books. And then bloom County loved bloom County, BC.
Speaker 11 (02:26:09):
I remember too. You remember that one Caveman? Yeah, yeah,
I forgot about that too. I'm just scrolling through the
Hagar the Horrible for better or worse? That was the
married Yeah, that was the family. What was the one
with the remember the lockhorns? That was the guy and
his wife that were always yelling at each other. There
was Kathy remember ak Yeah? Yeah, yeah's white wrote Kathy.
(02:26:31):
And then there was one called the Lockhorns that I remember.
Speaker 2 (02:26:34):
Get it because they lock horns all the time because
they're always fighting.
Speaker 11 (02:26:38):
Uh huh, mother Goose and Grim remember that one. No,
that was a big one. I loved that one.
Speaker 2 (02:26:46):
No, but the Lockhorns Hot. Why was she with Dagwood? God?
Speaker 8 (02:26:54):
Because I think she saw something in him Rob. She
liked the way he made sandwiches. He saw something in
her too. Uh yeah, yeah, Mutts don't know that, did
you shoot?
Speaker 2 (02:27:09):
That was a bird?
Speaker 10 (02:27:10):
Right?
Speaker 4 (02:27:10):
Yeah?
Speaker 2 (02:27:11):
I remember that.
Speaker 8 (02:27:12):
I remember when the Boone Docks showed up. That would
have been like late nineties, the Boon Docks, And that
was a big deal because there were no black characters
by and large, there were no comic strips devoted to
like black characters, and so that was a bigger deal.
I was always so fascinated in the story people could
tell in four, three or four panels, that is real.
(02:27:33):
You know, Editing is always your best friend in anything
you're writing. But to be able to tell a story
in that short period of time was fascinating to me.
Hi and Lois remember that one vaguely? That was another
family one.
Speaker 2 (02:27:47):
Yeah, I remember the name Handy Capp.
Speaker 8 (02:27:50):
I remember when the Chicago Tribune was running Life in Hell.
That was the first Matt Groening comic strip, remember late eighties,
before the Simpsons, before Tracey Yellman show. His strip was
called Light in Hell. That was the precursor of Simpsons.
Speaker 2 (02:28:02):
I remember when they were running that Heath Cliff. Oh,
there's a bunch I forgot. Cliff is a Maarfield. Yeah.
So anyway, there were you know, crank Shaft. Huh, crank shaft?
You remember that one? Not right now?
Speaker 6 (02:28:18):
Oh?
Speaker 2 (02:28:21):
Can I wait till the show's overplace bombarrassing? Oh my
good god, it didn't just start. Oh now.
Speaker 8 (02:28:28):
Anyway, forty years to day, Calvin and Hobbes premiered from
Northeast Ohio.
Speaker 2 (02:28:35):
No thank you, no thank you? And so yeah.
Speaker 8 (02:28:40):
So if Bill Waterson, if he's still around, you know,
he's nothing if not reclusive.
Speaker 2 (02:28:45):
They're probably people locally who know the guy.
Speaker 15 (02:28:47):
You know.
Speaker 2 (02:28:48):
Oh, that guy's we neighbor, you know, like your Nuno
Bettancourt story. Yeah, it was my friend's second grade teacher.
It was an honest he drew Calvin and Hobbes. Dude,
do you remember that boog of episode? It was the best.
Here's a text from somebody. How are you not mentioning
Calvin and Hobbes? You mean the first this conversation? It's okay.
(02:29:11):
The guy who wrote Funky winker Bean it was from Akron.
All right, well there you go.
Speaker 11 (02:29:17):

You think it was Wonky flicker Bean and they're like, well,
wait a minute, we should change this.
Speaker 8 (02:29:26):
We're gonna get sued by PJ. Flickerstick there with the
Detroit Pistons. We can't put this out there.

Speaker 8 (02:30:05):
His name was I don't know. I don't know if
they ever mentioned it. He was in the army and
hold golly, he never wanted to do anything.

a ton of fun.
Speaker 2 (02:32:07):
So if you're into metal and nothing but then you

Right here on the buzzard, you saw Daniel Tosh is
going on tour and coming to Cleveland, coming to Akron.
Speaker 8 (02:32:22):
I should say it's not coming to Cleveland. I want
to go see Daniel Tosh, who I was in the
impression hadn't toured in a while. He's been doing this podcast,
but I guess somebody said he toured last year.
Speaker 2 (02:32:31):
Did you see the name of the tour My first farewell,
my first bell farewell tour. Yeah, that's so good.
Speaker 8 (02:32:38):
Although one of the graphics that I saw it didn't
have an E in it, so the graphic was my
first farewell. Oh, they might want to double check that,
but the tickets and there's like artists pre sales and
all that crap, but the general on sale is Friday
morning at ten o'clock. You'll be able to go livenation
dot com. He will do the Akron Civic Theater on Thursday,
April the second, And Yeah, I think Tash is very funny.
(02:33:06):
Same back in the day, he didn't really I saw
him one time when he was still doing the clubs
like twenty years ago, and he kind of didn't feel
like he was there yet for me, which was a
me problem, not a him problem. But I think he's
very very funny, very funny. So Daniel Tosh weird Al
(02:33:26):
is going back out.
Speaker 2 (02:33:29):
I'm still mad at myself for missing that. I had
no excuse and I just didn't go.
Speaker 11 (02:33:33):
It's like even tonight, Like I'm going to the show
tonight and I'm like, how are you going to Mammoth?
Speaker 2 (02:33:39):
Yeah? Yeah, over at the Agora.
Speaker 11 (02:33:41):
Yeah in the head there right when I get out
of here, and I'm I'm I'm in that window for
me where I'm like, I'm just going to go home.
Speaker 2 (02:33:48):
I don't want to go.
Speaker 11 (02:33:49):
I want to go obviously more than anything, but I
don't like doing anything. So I'm like trying to hype
myself up to go. You get a rally, and I should.
I'm pissed at myself for missing that weird AWL show.
You were away, you had something going on. I was
in Austin. I think I forget what it was, and
he had something or was it was it Polke's wedding?
Speaker 2 (02:34:08):
Maybe? Oh yeah, I think you're right. I think it
was that, and I was just I was just home, like,
no excuse, right, stupid. Well, there's still time for you
to see him. Yes, is he coming back through here?
Speaker 8 (02:34:27):
He is, I believe, So don't quote me on that,
but yeah, the weird the tour is still called like
bitter and Twisted or what's it called, oh, bigger and weirder.
He's announced to a ninety date twenty twenty six tour.
Speaker 2 (02:34:47):
Wow.
Speaker 8 (02:34:47):
They did seventy five shows last year, and so he's
basically going everywhere in the Union. He's going to play
all the little towns and some of the big towns.
Some of them will be Yeah, Lousville, Eerie gonna play.
He's coming up pe Pack, dude, that's my favorite theater.
(02:35:10):
I guess maybe you'll have to go to Columbus or Pittsburgh.
It doesn't look like he's coming back to Cleveland.
Speaker 2 (02:35:16):
Yeah, I don't know where these I don't know where
these places in Pennsylvania are.
Speaker 8 (02:35:19):
He's doing Toledo next October. I mean the whole tour
goes May through October. So it's a lot of dates,
but you'll have to travel from here. You can go
to Chicago, Grand Rapids, Winds or Ontario, but that's basically Detroit,
Niagara Falls.
Speaker 11 (02:35:38):
Where are those places in PA? Did you see the
Eary PA? No, it was Burgotstown. That is suburban Pittsburgh.
That's like their blossom. Starlake is like Pittsburgh's blossom.
Speaker 2 (02:35:49):
So that's a couple hours too.
Speaker 8 (02:35:51):
Then, yes, yep, burgots Down is Pittsburgh Bethlehem, PA. That's
further into the state. So anyway, a lot. He's playing
TBA on September the third. That's the Tallahassee Bank Arena,
I believe Rob, if I'm not mistaken, that sounds right,
and some state fairs too. That's the Columbus date. I
(02:36:14):
love that there's there's such a TBA on a date.
Did you see July twenty fifth? No venue TBA City,
TBA but you can buy tickets. Yeah, that's great. Well,
it's like when they announce these festivals and everybody buys
the tickets before they even know what the lineup is.
Speaker 2 (02:36:32):
At least this, you know, it's weird Al.
Speaker 8 (02:36:34):
You know, hey, get your everybody buys Sonic Temple tickets
or Incarceration before they even announce who the bands are.
Speaker 2 (02:36:40):
Same thing on September twenty third Venue, TBA, City, TBA. Yeah.
So next summer you can see weird Al at the
Ohio State Fair. I have to go. That's going to
probably be too much for me go into it. I
mean at the fair on top of it. Oh no, no, no, no,
I gotta go to a theater or something somewhere. You
don't want to go see weird Al at a state fair? No,
(02:37:00):
really no, I don't want to go to a state fair.
Speaker 8 (02:37:03):
Yeah, but state fairs are ah now, I haven't been
to one, and I couldn't in decades, but they kind
of have grown up a little, right state fars. No,
I mean it's twenty twenty five, SAME's yeah, but it's
not like dusty paths in people eating like corn dough.
Every year we go over the Goofy Fair foods that
(02:37:25):
all these states are doing, and it's like these massive
you know, it's like going to the ballpark.
Speaker 11 (02:37:30):
Yeah no, it's not dusty paths. It's concrete or pavement
and people eating gross corn dogs. That's there's no difference.
Speaker 2 (02:37:37):
Rob to say, there's no such thing as a gross
corn doing. If you're going to this, you can buy
the sham. Wow. Yeah, that's fun. Look at the knives
on display. Now.
Speaker 8 (02:37:47):
I don't really want to go to Columbus to do that. No, no, no,
but that's where the state fair is no. July twenty
ninth through. Now, if you go to the Ohio State
Fair website, the first giant banner you see is weird
Al because that's where yeah, bigger and weirder coming to
the fair.
Speaker 6 (02:38:04):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (02:38:04):
I just can't do it.
Speaker 11 (02:38:05):
My days of state fairs long over. We have you
the Rhode Island state Fairs that there was never so
we would do it, All of New England would do
it together. It was in West Springfield, Massachusetts, called the
Big Ee million people every year, humongous crowds. It was
seventeen days long and I would have to work every
(02:38:25):
single one of the days because we'd broadcast live from it.
Speaker 2 (02:38:28):
Oh, I see.
Speaker 11 (02:38:29):
So from the seventeen until my thirties, I was at
a state fair every single day.
Speaker 2 (02:38:37):
Well the same yeah, okay, Yeah, I didn't know any
of the scooters they had no business being in, but
God forbid they should walk. So you have a visceral distaste.
Speaker 11 (02:38:48):
I just don't like, I don't lay that, Okay, it's
just not for me. I don't love crowds, and I don't.
Speaker 2 (02:38:53):
Because to me, like it used to be.
Speaker 8 (02:38:54):
What I recall when I was younger is state fairs
were like you know, a local acedc cover band or something,
and now they get like big acts, yeah, play in
state fares.
Speaker 11 (02:39:05):
But then that's the thing though, is that like that
Weird al show is not going to be a free show,
you know what I mean, Like you're gonna have to
go to the State Pace and then you got to
pay to see it.
Speaker 2 (02:39:12):
Yeah, you know they have the free stages or whatever.
That's where you'll see I mean, you're gonna have people
going just to see Weird Al Oh for sure. Yeah,
you buy a ticket to the to the fair and
then you get to go see Now, Rob, here's the
best part. July twenty ninth through August ninth next year,
the Ohio State Fair down there in Columbus. And you
go to their website and it's and again this is hashag,
(02:39:33):
not an ad. We're just talking about weird Al announcing
all of his tour dates. Just so happens that the
one closest to us is going to be in Columbus.
And so they have you know, oh here the concerts,
except they don't have any listings yet.
Speaker 8 (02:39:47):
However, they do have a field for listen to the
Ohio State Fair podcast. Oh good, now, the Myheart production.
The podcast is called A Fair to Remember, which I'm
gonna give you that one. It was right there, sure,
But the Ohio State Fair Podcast, now I don't know
(02:40:11):
that it still exists.
Speaker 2 (02:40:13):
It was twenty eighteen to twenty twenty four. People can
go to the website and listen to the archival episodes.
Maybe they only do it for close to the event,
maybe so, but imagine doing that. You know, we're going
to tell you you, I don't know you sound like that,
(02:40:34):
sound like this. We're going to tell you all of
the unique Ohio State Fair stories. For this episode, we're
going to do art parts through a phone.
Speaker 8 (02:40:46):
Yeah, ah, Alan crabass. Clint Rattler is in full swing.
Is there anything Rob likes?
Speaker 2 (02:40:56):
What did I do? Now? Oh? The state fair thing?
Speaker 8 (02:40:58):
Well, but Rob earned I think he earned his derision
for state fairs. I mean, if you were there doing
a broadcast year after year and there's people walking what, Yeah,
that kind of thing.
Speaker 11 (02:41:09):
Yeah, I understand that. And this was back when radio
had people to help. I still had to do it
all by myself. I was there every morning to set
up until the end of my show, and then I'd
break down.
Speaker 2 (02:41:24):
It sucked.
Speaker 8 (02:41:26):
Dave, are you going to see weird al Yam?
Speaker 2 (02:41:31):
He's excited State Fair next summer?
Speaker 3 (02:41:37):
Yeah?
Speaker 2 (02:41:37):
Oh you telling me? Hey, listen, somebody.
Speaker 8 (02:41:44):
They were doing some survey of people, and they determined
that more people said that they would rather go to
a concert than have sex, which I think says more
about the state of people's sex lives than the state
of live entertainment. Live Nation did a big old survey
of people and seven out of ten said they would
pick a concert over sex. Now, if there is anything
(02:42:07):
as bad as dating, it's trying to get tickets for something. Yeah,
they'll seem like both equally laborious and terrible environments now
is getting tickets. I'm going to a metal show on
Friday night at the Globe Iron, and I got tickets
pretty early, right when they first announced the show was
(02:42:30):
going to happen. You go back there now and the
third party apps are trying to sell you tickets. A
GA ticket for this particular show, which again a metal show.
There's like four or five bands on it, right, but
these are not like household names outside of the genre.
GA tickets are one hundred and sixty four dollars, and
I'm like, who the f would buy these?
Speaker 2 (02:42:52):
How much? One hundred and sixty four dollars? Oh my god?
Speaker 8 (02:42:55):
If you go on the app and it tells you
right there, oh, these are third party sellers or whatever.
Speaker 2 (02:43:00):
You know, the apps scoop them all up and then
try to sell them back to you at three hundred
percent or whatever. I don't remember what I paid, but
it was probably like fifty bucks, which is still ridiculous,
but we're kind of used to it now, you know.
Speaker 8 (02:43:16):
But yeah, wow, one hundred and sixty four dollars. I
was like, well, anybody trying to buy them now is
going to be sorely disappointed because that's the price point
at which you have to determine how much do I
really like this band? And a lot of people have
to make that, you know, But more people in that
Live Nation survey said that they would rather go to
a concert than have sex.
Speaker 2 (02:43:38):
No thanks, and I love concerts, Uh not that much.
They asked forty thousand people to take this survey. You
think people answer honestly though, I mean, I don't surveys
like that. But that's not a situation. I think that
what you could be anonymous. Probably that to me is
not a situation where you would lie. You go, yeah,
I'd rather There's probably a lot of people I don't.
(02:43:59):
I don't think those results are skewed at all. They go, yeah,
I'd ratherly go to a concert that have sex. Some
people are really bad at sex, I guess, but that's
still better than any concert I've ever been to.
Speaker 8 (02:44:10):
They talked to forty thousand people between the ages of
eighteen and fifty four in fifteen countries, and that they
would they ranked sports events and movies and concerts above
sexual intercourse or int for you kids, Yeah.
Speaker 2 (02:44:30):
No, no, I don't see it. Even when it's bad,
it's good enough. One person said.
Speaker 8 (02:44:37):
The problem with sex is you show up hopeful of
being pleasantly surprised, and quite often you'll end up with
someone else's hair in your mouth. Yeah, but you could
say that just as much about it going on concert. Yeah,
I got that guy's hair in my mouth.
Speaker 2 (02:44:53):
You you know, you go to the uh.
Speaker 8 (02:44:56):
But as expensive as tickets are, it certainly doesn't seem
to be stopping people from going to concerts. I just
got especially since especially since sex is free, yeah, free,
relatively easy to get most cases.
Speaker 2 (02:45:12):
It's free. What do you mean that means sometimes your
sex isn't free.
Speaker 8 (02:45:17):
Well, I'm not talking about people who are paying for it,
you know what I mean. That's why people keep cranking
out kids.
Speaker 2 (02:45:21):
It's free sometimes, Like you know, we'll cost you a
little money too, you mean dinner, right?
Speaker 8 (02:45:27):
All right, Well, I'm just saying, like, you know, okay,
relatively cheap. And let's if you're going to go to
a show and your tickets are one hundred and fifty
bucks a pop, so you're already in for three hundred
and fees and you uber and whatever else, add the
tickets on.
Speaker 2 (02:45:44):
To the dinner.
Speaker 11 (02:45:47):
If you thought I wasn't excited to go to the
Calves game, and if I was teetering on doing anything
else upcoming, got a request from my oldest who's coming
home on Monday for the Thanksgiving holiday from Mount Union.
From Mount Union and she said, Dad, did you know
Maroon five is coming to uh the Rocket Arena? And
(02:46:10):
I said, yes, I did know that. She said, can
we go? And I said, sure?
Speaker 2 (02:46:19):
Who?
Speaker 9 (02:46:19):
God, please?
Speaker 2 (02:46:20):
No, absolutely no, what are you gonna go? Yeah? Of course?
Speaker 8 (02:46:24):
I mean I asked my nine year old when they
first announced that show, do you have because she likes
their music? Yeah, when they're on the radio, she bops
her head along and I go, do you have any
interest in seeing Maroon five?
Speaker 2 (02:46:35):
Nope? Yeah, no.
Speaker 11 (02:46:36):
I I was very surprised that she asked, So, I
guess I'm doing that Monday, next Monday Night.
Speaker 2 (02:46:43):
When that's then next week? Next week Monday, Yeah, Maroon five.
It's gonna be very very white down Monday Night. It
sure is, boy right, very very white in Cleveland.
Speaker 5 (02:46:58):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (02:47:02):
Yeah.
Speaker 8 (02:47:03):
And there's a black guy in Maroon five. Yeah, he
might be the only one in the arena on the stage. Yeah,
good chance. That's one of those bands I don't dislike.
I just would not go through a whole show with them.
Speaker 11 (02:47:17):
Well, yeah, I mean listen, I probably won't either, But
what it is, I'm down here and the three of
them are going to drive to meet me, so I
can leave, all right, what the hell I want?
Speaker 2 (02:47:26):
All right, Maroon five at the Rocket Arena. I don't
know who's opening for them.
Speaker 8 (02:47:31):
Claire rosen Krantz. Sorry, Claire rosen Krantz, all right, so
I still don't know who's open.
Speaker 2 (02:47:36):
She blew up on TikTok. That's how you get opening
uh spots. Now you're big on TikTok. Bring the kids out.
Speaker 8 (02:47:45):
So she was just like doing bedroom pop and blew
up on social media platforms, Claire Claire Rosenkrantz.
Speaker 2 (02:47:52):
Yeah, she's like nineteen twenty years old, and there she is. Yeah.
I don't think I've ever seen her on TikTok. I'm
not prize you haven't seen her. Yeah, I probably wouldn't
come up in my algorithm.
Speaker 11 (02:48:02):
Right, Nope, she's on I mean, she's on a major label,
so she's must she must be something.
Speaker 2 (02:48:08):
Yeah, she's on Republic Records.
Speaker 9 (02:48:11):
Jude.
Speaker 2 (02:48:11):
Yeah, Well, more people would rather have go to a
concert than have sex, especially when Adam Levine's on stage.
How about that guy. It's a dreamy set up a vision.
I'll tell you what. People give Adam Levine a hard time,
but he's a talented dude. Yeah, hell of a guitar player, right.
Speaker 8 (02:48:29):
And Maroon five is a band that started as kind
of more of like they kind of had.
Speaker 2 (02:48:33):
A hippie jam band vibe to him. Yeah, listen to
Harder to Breathe. Yeah, that was the first single. That's
a rock song. They were kind of doing blue eyed
soul back then too, and then they started doing real
glossy pop.
Speaker 11 (02:48:43):
I remember when that song came out. The guy that
I the program director that I worked for, wouldn't play
the song on our station. We were an adult contemporary,
hot adult contemporary station. He's like, that is a rock
song that belongs on a rock station. We will never
play that song. They've never touched it. Yeah, Harder to Breathe,
(02:49:05):
this is not it, No, this is misery. I was like,
this was definitely not their rock song. That's a good song, though, They're.
Speaker 2 (02:49:12):
Like, they're all good songs, you know what I mean?
By here them?
Speaker 8 (02:49:15):
I go, Okay, I don't think that I would care
to stand there and watch them perform them going, oh no,
I'll sit there, arms crossed, arms crossed, and then I'll go,
oh my stomach.
Speaker 2 (02:49:27):
Yeah, oh my god, I think I have to poop
really bad. I can't stay here. Well, that just go
to the back. I can't. I can't do that arena.
You think I'm gonna poop it an arena, wellcome back
to the office.
Speaker 6 (02:49:37):
Home.
Speaker 2 (02:49:37):
That's even worse.
Speaker 8 (02:49:39):
Right around the guys, right around the corner, you guys
continue to enjoy Maroon five.
Speaker 2 (02:49:43):
Yeah, I'm just gonna I'm just gonna go home. Yeah,
this is this is probably one best gun on home court.
Excuse me, Oh my god, girls, Oh.
Speaker 8 (02:49:52):
My god, girls, we gotta get the hell out of here. Yeah,
off to the Yeah, Dad's gonna drop upper Maroon two
in about thirty seconds.
Speaker 2 (02:50:04):
I'm going to get the hell out of here. And
now I must leave you as the Brady bunch is
on and I find four of those children incredibly arousing.
Get at it.
Speaker 5 (02:50:15):
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.
(02:50:35):
One slip and you know who you're through. Big Brother
is watching you? And are we all narratives? Remember obedience paid,
And when you watch that davy screens, remember it works
both ways. You disappear in a wink. Unless you can
(02:51:01):
double think, you'll vanish into the blue. Big Brother is
watching you.
