Hey, what's going on?

Speaker 6 (01:04):
Gang?

Speaker 2 (01:04):
Good afternoon? High there hellw greetings and salutation to you
and yours on this Friday. My name is Alan Cox.
Say hun to Rob Anthony, he's here too. What's up?

You're so inclined two one six five seven eight one
double oh seven eight hundred and three four eight one
double oh seven. You can send me at tax three
five one two something to do that, Alan, I'm worried
Rob is getting too much testosterone.

Speaker 2 (01:39):
He's been really testy lately. Testy.

Speaker 7 (01:43):
I bet one has nothing to do with the other people.
Don't understand. You've talked about it. I've talked about it.
We operate with a barely concealed torrent of rage just
under the surface. Yeah, and every once in a while
it will, it'll come out. You'll get aggravated, Alan, You'll
get to Rob freaking out about something.

Speaker 8 (02:05):
Yeah, I mean, I will be even think. I feel
like it has not not because of the testoster. I
don't think, but I know this, Like, over the last week,
there was a few things that really chapped my ass
and I kind of just went all in on it.

Speaker 2 (02:16):
Yes, that's a that's a world problem, not a Rob problem.

Speaker 7 (02:21):
Right. Yeah, He's merely reacting to external forces that are
taking on an outsized influence. AnyWho, if you want to
watch the show, you can. You'll see us on camera
a little bit later on. You'll see the hairless pate
of one Timothy Disney Esquire. It's been a long time
since he's been on the show, and I ran into
him a couple of weeks ago at a wedding and

(02:42):
I said, hey, man, you should come back in and
we'll chop it up and catch up. And he acquiesced
he's very busy, but we'll hand with Tim Disney a
little bit later on What else I gave the text out?

Speaker 5 (02:53):
I think.

Speaker 7 (02:55):
The live stream. I think rob I got in the
goddamn yankiest Uber this morning. Remember the Mister Magoo theme song,
Remember the beginning of the old Mister m The great
Jim backis right, I remember, Jim. You got to be
a certain age to remember this boy.

Speaker 2 (03:12):
Jim bachis who was the voice of Mister Magoo, but
he was also the he was Thurston Howl on Gilligan's
Island back in the day. Now let me prefaces by saying,
my driver was perfectly nice, very nice guy.

Speaker 7 (03:25):
I dropped my car off this morning at Conrad's. Again, uh,
because something else is going on with my car. So anyway,
so I dropped my car Conrads and then I planned
to Uber here to work, and so I get on
Uber and I get uh, it tells me that a
guy's coming, and I was excited about the first guy. Spoiler,
I canceled the first driver because it was very clear

(03:46):
that this dude I don't know if it just pinged
him because he was in the area, but clearly either
this dude wasn't awake yet or something because his car
wasn't moving at all. But it was telling me that
he was going to be driving a one of those
Ford mock ease and I was excited about that because
you know, next year year and a half, I'm gonna
have to get myself a new car, and I wanted
to ask him about the car. Anyway, I give this

(04:06):
guy like ten minutes. It says he's two minutes away,
and I finally canceled the drive. I don't know that
I've ever canceled an Uber drive, but the dude there
was there was no movement at all, and so I'm like, well,
this is either this cat is sleeping or whatever. So
I book another ride and there's a guy that's not
far away, and so, you know, he pulls up in

(04:26):
like a Hyundai something, and again, I don't know what
the I know a lot of people do this work
and they're just using their own car, and that's fine.

Speaker 2 (04:36):
I guess I'm curious, like, what is the minimum? There
has to be some kind of.

Speaker 7 (04:43):
Minimum criteria that ride share drivers have to clear with
respect to their vehicle.

Speaker 2 (04:51):
I have to assume that's the case. You don't have
to be driving a brand new car. I wouldn't expect that.

Speaker 7 (04:56):
But boy, this guy's car, it was making a lot
of noise and I'm pretty sure I heard something dragon
and I'm like, it's got to be some I don't
think I know anyone directly who does rideshare driving, but
there's got to be that dude that calls us a lot,
you know, and he goes I do a lot of
ride sharing. The guy that said that he thinks of
David Lee Roth because it'll ask if he's reached, are

(05:17):
you at your destination? And he'll say, you know, the
option is yes I am, And so he'll think of
when he's doing his ride share. But again I don't
know that guy. He just leaves us a lot of messages.
But I would think there has to be a minimum
criterion for like, you know, your car has to be
in you know, a certain kind of shape. And again,

(05:37):
the guy's car is operating properly. It was very noisy,
and again he was very nice, so there was no
problem with the ride. I was more worried for him.

Speaker 2 (05:44):
I was like, wow, bro, if you're taking this out there,
ain't nobody getting rich doing ride sharing. But I don't know,
I'm not sure what his situation was. Speaking of David
Lee Roth. Happy birthday to David Lee Roth, who is
seventy one years Are you seventy one today?

Speaker 9 (06:02):
Day?

Speaker 2 (06:03):
M all right?

Speaker 7 (06:05):
It's kind of a kick and a gut, yeah, Now,
I always I have known David Lee Roth's birthday my
entire life because because it's also the birthday of my
middle brother. My brother David is also yeah, having a
birthday Today's far, far less famous than David Lee Roth,
but they have the same name, and so October tenth
I have always known was David Lee Roth's birthday because

(06:28):
my middle brother is only fifteen months younger than I am.
And when we were growing up, we were both way
into van Halen. My brother was playing the bass, I
was playing the drums, and we were listening to a
lot of Van Halen. And so, you know, when you're
a kid, you go ooh, who do I have a
birthday with? You know, when you're a kid and your
birthday is like an important thing to you. And we've

(06:49):
talked about this before. If you are let's say over
the age of twenty five, and you still get really
like moist in the shorts over your birthday. Look within,
there's some things you got to figure out. But when
you're a kid, you're like, Oh, my brother, who do
I Who do I share my birthday with?

Speaker 2 (07:04):
Right? And so you think of like, oh, what celebrities
do I share my birthday with? And my brother found
out that he and David Lee Roth had the same birthday,
and we were both just giddy is school chums at
the notion of that. So my whole life I have
known that David Lee Roth's birthday is the same as
my brother's birth and David Lee Roth seventy one years

(07:27):
old today. Who I like the short one? Me too,
that's the long one. I like that one, short, medium long.
I like that it builds up to a wow.

Speaker 7 (07:46):
So boy, a hot day all around, and a happy
birthday to everyone involved. All I think for ride share driving,
it's any vehicle with four doors newer than two thousand nine.
I don't think they require you to take pictures.

Speaker 6 (08:03):
Hell.

Speaker 7 (08:03):
Yeah, again, this is what I'm saying, you know, because technically,
you know, they make it so that you're not their employee.
They're not responsible really for anything you do. You're an
independent contractor. That way they don't have to pay benefits
and all the costs are on you, and blah blah blah. Oh,
it's a great, great business model.

Speaker 2 (08:20):
The Ellen Corr Show on one hundred seven MS.

Speaker 1 (08:27):
Ellen Car Show.

Speaker 2 (08:28):
Here's a piece of strong cheese. Keys has a sound,
probably all of its own.

Speaker 6 (08:36):
On one hundred point seven WMMS.

Speaker 2 (08:45):
I got him another thousand dollars for you.

Speaker 7 (08:47):
Coming up at two thirty last four keywords of the
week a thirty past the hour to grab some money
courtesy of the Buzzard bookie, and then we'll start it
up again Monday morning with rm GEE. Calves lose again
to the Bulls last night, this time in Chicago. The
Bulls and the Calves have only played each other thus far,

(09:08):
and the Calves have gone in two. The other night
they lost by one point here at home the United
Center last night. One nineteen to one twelve was the
final score there. So halfway through the preseason games. Sunday
night they'll be in Boston to play the Celtics, and
then they will host the Pistons here on Tuesday, and

(09:29):
then about a week off, and then the regular season
will begin on Wednesday, the twenty second.

Speaker 2 (09:33):
They'll be in New York to play the Knicks. I
will have tickets for you all next week for the
home opener here at the Rocket Arena against the Milwaukee Bucks.
And so I don't know if it's four packs next
week or if it's just regular tickets, but I will
have those Calves tickets for you all next week. Pair
tickets Calves Bucks on the twenty sixth. Next week, the.

Speaker 7 (09:55):
Oh I'm going to be out on Sunday, by the way,
switching gears to football with are on the road. We
didn't do when they were in London, but we do
the bud Light football face off thing the Cocks out
of pregames, what we call it with bud Light. I'm
gonna be out in Copley, back at the Town Tavern.
I did a thing there this past summer and had
a lot of fun. So we're back there on Sunday
from noon to two. We got a handful of these.

(10:18):
One person from Northeast Ohio, whoever that top score getter is,
is gonna go to Vegas and they're gonna compete along
with everybody else from around the Country trying to get
the grand prize, which is ticket for Super Bowl sixty
out in San Francisco in February. So this Sunday, you
got another crack to get in on this noon to two.
I'm at Town Tavern in Copley with bud Light. But

(10:40):
the whole schedule of where we're going to be throughout
the course of the season is at WMMS dot com.
Just hit the contest page there. If you listen to
us on iHeartRadio, you can always leave messages for us.

Speaker 2 (10:52):
Hi, Alan, Hi Rob.

Speaker 10 (10:54):
This is Patrick from Malaria and I just wanted to
say your two look fabulous today.

Speaker 2 (11:01):
I got a bone to pick with you beside the
one in my hand, Huga. Anyway, that being sad, we
can tell you're losing weight.

Speaker 1 (11:08):
You're looking great.

Speaker 11 (11:09):
Alan.

Speaker 2 (11:10):
I'm not until older women, but you still got it
and you see, you know what, your son of a bite.
You'll just have a wonderful day to day. Thank you.

Speaker 7 (11:17):
You know, why don't you go pick that bone in
your hand? Older women? You know what that was kind
of mean to huff my taint? How about that. I'm
in no mood today. I'm telling you what.

Speaker 2 (11:25):
I am in no mood for any of your nonsense
or shenanigans or chicanery like this.

Speaker 7 (11:30):
No, I don't know where it's coming from. I'm in
no mood, no mood at all, Rob.

Speaker 2 (11:42):
What was the bone he had to pick with me?
He's doing a bit, he's like now, just on in
my hand. Oh my god, he actually had a bone. No,
it was a little clont his bone. Now I know
he's he's doing a bit his bone. Yeah.

Speaker 7 (11:56):
Pick out there in Oliria, allegedly, Pat from Aleyria. You know,
why does there have to be so much discrimination against
hair farmers like myself, Rob.

Speaker 2 (12:08):
I don't know. Come on for me, listen.

Speaker 8 (12:11):
I would assume it's probably the same reason I would
make a joke is because I'm jealous.

Speaker 7 (12:15):
But I don't know what Patrick from Alaria looks like.
I only know what he sounds like. Hey, hey, one
in my hand Auga. I would like to bring Auga back,
though I don't hate that anyway, thank you, Patrick. He's
son of a bitch. Uh Hey, listen. Sports weekends a

(12:37):
big weekend for betting and all that. And I was
reading that, you know, people will bet on anything and
gaming apps and casinos and you know everything. There's money
to be made, and they are making it easier and
easier for you to bet on everything, prop bets, whatever
you want. And there are people who are betting on
the menstrual cycles of WNBA players. Oh that's nice, and
well listen, it's one more prop bet now again. Yeah,

(13:00):
I don't know what one has to do with the other.
In the strictest sense of data, I go, what they're
doing here. It's a sexist, misogynist joke that's being made, right,
like somehow a female athlete. Now, first of all, I
think it's hilarious if people think that female athletes are
still getting periods because most of them have gotten their

(13:20):
bodies in such a way. I shouldn't say most of them,
A lot of them got their bodies in such a
way where it's like, you know, the menstruation gets more
and more intermittent. Now the jokes right themselves, right, they
call it blood money.

Speaker 11 (13:36):
You know.

Speaker 2 (13:36):
Let's say you have a bad weekend rob after one
of these, they go, do you want any money?

Speaker 12 (13:39):
Now?

Speaker 2 (13:39):
Man, I'm in the red. I can imagine somebody's throwing
that around.

Speaker 7 (13:43):
But listen, if you're into betting, you would want to
bet on anything, you know, when the Super Bowl comes around,
there's prop bets on what color gatorade will be poured
on the winning coach's head. Any manner of bet, any
permutation of that you can throw together where somebody will
take your money.

Speaker 2 (14:06):
What color?

Speaker 7 (14:06):
I'll tell you the prop that I like to see
what will be the next color of dildo thrown out
onto the court?

Speaker 2 (14:13):
Green?

Speaker 7 (14:14):
Well, but we've I have to think that we have.
The novelty of the green dildo has kind of worn off. Granted,
it war off after one or two times, but if
you want to get people maybe paying attention again, I
don't know that the I think the dildo thing might
be over.

Speaker 8 (14:29):
I think so, but it is the standard. So if
you're going to throw a dildo, it should be green
just for that purpose.

Speaker 2 (14:38):
At this point.

Speaker 8 (14:39):
If you change it up, it'll be like, oh, that's funny,
it was blue? Did he not have a green one?

Speaker 2 (14:45):
I see? Brand loyalty is what you're saying, Well, it's established.

Speaker 7 (14:49):
I guess my concern is yeah, but everybody it needs
to uh you know, innovation comes from breaking from the
norm there, right, What if somebody is at a game
and they're like, boy, I really want to throw a dildo.
But I don't want to be associated with crypto douches
or the Green Dildo Society. I want to blaze my
own latex phallic trail.

Speaker 8 (15:10):
Then you need to start your own new thing. And
I think the next thing should be a suction cup dildos.
If you're gonna do it, I think you gotta make
it stick, you know what I mean?

Speaker 7 (15:18):
Like, yeah, second deck, I mean you got to do
like a like a SpaceX landing back on the platform
to get that suction cup.

Speaker 2 (15:27):
You're thinking all wrong, man.

Speaker 8 (15:28):
Oh, you just have to put like a weighted sea
ring on it all the way to the bottom so
when you throw it the weight time gravity.

Speaker 7 (15:37):
Oh that's a good thing. Yeah, but it also makes
it heavier, so you're not going to get it as far.

Speaker 2 (15:40):
That's all right. One thing for another.

Speaker 8 (15:43):
You just needed to get straight up and down and
then wham and then I mean with that much gravitational pull,
that thing's going to stick to the floor.

Speaker 7 (15:49):
Boy, could you cover it in suction cups? Like make
it look like a giant green octopus tentacle? I like
that too, So no matter where it lands.

Speaker 2 (15:58):
Dito Society Old entree making a funny a place to be.
I mean it was never really funny. I get what
the AI is trying to do there. Yeah, but it
was perfect for what we needed. I mean, it's just
you know, you needed a theme song for the Green

(16:19):
Dildo Society. I mean, it's there.

Speaker 11 (16:21):
It is.

Speaker 7 (16:21):
By the way, wasn't the last game in the w
NBA Finals last night? Did Vegas win?

Speaker 6 (16:25):
Well?

Speaker 2 (16:26):
You got the wrong person for that one. Oh it's tonight.

Speaker 7 (16:29):
Vegas and Phoenix are in the finals, and I don't
think Phoenix has won one game. That's the guy who
is gonna buy the White Sox, the guy who owns
the Phoenix Mercury.

Speaker 2 (16:39):
So we're in good hands. Oh, it's gonna be great.

Speaker 7 (16:42):
No, the Las Vegas Aces are up three games to nothing,
and so I think they can win the whole thing tonight.
If you're paying attention to the w NBA, and if
you're not, you're missing out on some quality menstrul centric
prop bets.

Speaker 2 (16:59):
But how do you know if they actually are or not.

Speaker 7 (17:02):
That's what I'm saying. It's all for. It's all like
performative like marketing nonsense.

Speaker 8 (17:08):
You know, I don't know, it doesn't make any sense,
like they would have to confirm or deny that.

Speaker 7 (17:14):
Well, they're just predicted, right, They're like, oh, it's the
less seek as the month, that kind of stuff. So yeah,
unless listen, like I said, when there are hundreds of
millions and billions of dollars in an industry like online gambling,
you know, people who are really into it aren't going
to leave a great deal to chance. So it's conceivable

(17:34):
part of the punt that somebody could have access to
maybe somebody's medical records. Okay, Now, having access to somebody's
medical records is great. Well, in the biggest sense, has
nothing to do with when they're menstruating. But still, one
prominent figure making these wagers says that he's been correct

(17:55):
eleven out of sixteen of his period related predictions.

Speaker 2 (17:58):
Now here's the thing. Just because you're making that bet
that they'll either win or lose doesn't necessarily it's almost
coincidental that you're making the bet based on their menstrual cycles.
But golly, what fun for female athletes to have that
swirling around their heads. Right, What a great time to
be a female athlete. How is that bar in Gordon

(18:19):
Square doing, by the way, I hope they're doing. Okay,
I hope they're doing well. There's a bar months ago
that opened up that is they're drilling down on like
female sports. They're trying to make it a female sports centric.
You know, the Cleveland Rockers are coming back. I feel
like the not sure how to phrase it.

Speaker 7 (18:43):
I feel like the excitement over the return of the
Cleveland Rockers is premature because they're not coming back next year,
are they They're coming back twenty twenty seven, right A
lot can happen in two years, boy, And I know
right now people are really kind of they're all They're
more all in than they've ever been in the WNBA
because of you know, Caitlyn Clark and Angel Reese. But

(19:04):
it wasn't that long ago that those girls were college
basketball players and it's only their getting drafted into the
WNBA to put the spotlight on the pro league. So
I hope that that trend continues because I think the
more the merrier. But I mean there's a you know,
the ebbs and the flows of these things. I don't know,

(19:24):
you're never going to get around the fact that more
men are watching sports in general van women. Now there
are more guys watching the WNBA than there have ever been.
But part of that probably has to do with the
fact that now dudes are.

Speaker 2 (19:39):
Like, well make a period bit. But yeah, and listen,
it's your money. You should spend it however you want.

Speaker 8 (19:48):
I would say I watch it more because of Sophie Cunningham,
but that's she's injured now, so I've kind of my
watching of the WNBA has gone down a slide.

Speaker 2 (19:57):
Ted Okay, now who does she play for? In the oh?
She and Caitlyn Clark are on the same team. Yep, okay,
so you're watching for her. Yeah, it's my favorite team,
all right, big, big Indiana what were they called again,
the the the Indiana Fever. I'm a big Indiana Fever fan.
Huge yeah. Yeah, Well, listen.

Speaker 7 (20:17):
I was part of the Chicago Sky organization many many
years ago before I came to Cleveland. I was the
arena game host for the Chicago Sky and so I
have obviously a great deal of affinity for those girls.
I have to imagine they're all gone now, the girls
that I that were on the team when I was there.

(20:38):
But Angel Reese plays for my Chicago Sky, and so
I pay attention to her and Maddy Westbeld and you know,
players like that. So, yes, we the guys who are
watching the w NBA, we have to be candid and
say we're looking at cute girls. But the fact that

(21:00):
their accomplished athletes, that's great too, Robert.

Speaker 8 (21:06):
Talking about huh, what are you talking about cute girls?
I didn't even notice she was attractive. I just I'm
amazed at her skills. She's fantastic.

Speaker 2 (21:13):
Uhh Sophie Cunningham, Yes, yeah, I mean, I mean, just
you didn't know what team she played for? Yes, I did.

Speaker 8 (21:19):
It just slipped my mind, I said, Indiana hue Fever.

Speaker 2 (21:25):
Yeah. Yeah, and uh she's a hell of a player. Okay,
fair enough, So it didn't you haven't seen her from
the neck up?

Speaker 8 (21:32):
No, I mean, and even then, I don't notice those
types of things now and then, you know, look, a
person is a person, ye don't.

Speaker 2 (21:40):
I don't see those things.

Speaker 11 (21:41):
I get it.

Speaker 2 (21:42):
You're an ex AS and O's guy when it comes
to those things.

Speaker 13 (21:44):
Oh.

Speaker 8 (21:44):
Absolutely, I am dissecting those w NBA games like you
wouldn't believe.

Speaker 7 (21:49):
Okay, well, because there are more, There are a contingent,
you know, it runs the gamut in female sports, like
any other sport where you kind of have players who
are a bit more comfortable being glam and others who aren't.
And so you know, for every Caitlin Clark, you're gonna
have a Liz Cambridge.

Speaker 2 (22:10):
Right.

Speaker 7 (22:10):
She's Australian, but she was playing here. I think she
plays in China. Now what happened to Liz Cambridge? Remember her?

Speaker 2 (22:18):
She's like nine feet tall and hot.

Speaker 7 (22:20):
I think she was playing for the Aces and then
she was like, yeah, I have fun playing, but I
discovered this thing called only fans.

Speaker 2 (22:28):
Oh really? And oh yeah yeah, so she I think
Liz Cambridge is really foxy. Yeah, no, I've not heard
of her.

Speaker 7 (22:35):
She won second overall in the twenty eleven draft, so
she played for the Tulsa Shock and then she played
for Vegas. Well she must be done by now, that's
what I mean. Yeah, she didn't play anymore. Yeah, but
you know she's mid thirties, early thirties. So you know,

(22:55):
if things don't go the way you want in professional sports,
you know you've got options. I guess that maybe male
players might not necessarily have, but I think that she
does play still. She just plays in China somewhere. But
she's quite lovely. Rob has a fever and the prescription
is more. Sophie cunninghams.

Speaker 2 (23:16):
Yeah. When I first saw an article about period betting,
I thought that they meant, like, you know, sports in
the seventeen fifties or something. What are they playing out
in downtown Abbitsiday? It appears there playing kick the can.

Speaker 8 (23:32):
We've got a championship of hoop and stick and work
out in the coach yard.

Speaker 2 (23:40):

People will leave us messages there. They're more than welcome

Speaker 7 (23:59):
J listens in Orange County, California. Alex is in Dallas, Texas,
Kevin's in Ipsilanti, Michigan. And Oleg is one of our
Canadian bureau chiefs Allen.

Speaker 5 (24:11):
If you don't believe in God, then why do you
say god?

Speaker 2 (24:14):
Damn it? God's not real. And I don't understand you're
saying of goddamn it that God doesn't understand when I
say goddamn it, Rob, what a stupid question. It's a
commonly understood word. By the way, goddamn. What's that got
to do with me not believing in God. Well, if
you don't believe what a dumb question? Give me a

(24:34):
good question. I mean, people say goddamn it all the time.
What am I supposed to say? Santa? Damn it? Like,
do you believe in Santa?

Speaker 1 (24:41):
Uh?

Speaker 2 (24:41):
Yeah? Okay, then yes, I think you should.

Speaker 1 (24:44):
No.

Speaker 2 (24:45):
But if God is damning something, then I mean technically
he would be right. No, he wouldn't.

Speaker 11 (24:52):
Oh.

Speaker 7 (24:53):
First of all, I don't know that there's no God. Okay,
I don't believe there is because there's no evidence to
support the claim.

Speaker 2 (25:00):
So I'm not saying there is no God. I'm saying
I don't know that there's no God.

Speaker 7 (25:03):
It's the people who claim God absolutely exists, and furthermore,
they know exactly what he wants. That's what should bother you,
not me. I say goddamn it all the time. It's
got nothing to do with one that I believe in God.
It's a commonly understood.

Speaker 2 (25:20):
Phrase. What should I say? Okay, give me an example.
What should I say? Dag gamut, dad, dagnab it. I
got the end of this.

Speaker 8 (25:28):
Dagnab uber this morning, Dad gum uber. If you don't
believe in God, when he say goddamn, I don't know
you made it up.

Speaker 2 (25:42):
You made up God. So I made the word up.
I don't know. What do you want from me? That's
not my fault. Well, maybe I'll come up with another word.

Speaker 8 (25:49):
That word does it does say a lot, though you
know you can use that in so many contexts.

Speaker 7 (25:54):
Well, listen, I understand that there are people, you know,
I hear. I get messages in people all the time.
Hey listen, I'm a Christian or whatever, and I don't
like when you say goddamn and I go, that's fine,
it's not going to change anything.

Speaker 2 (26:03):
But I understand where you are coming from. But if
somebody's like, well, if you don't believe them, just because
this is the problem and people's words will always give
them away. By the way, is that just because I
don't believe in something doesn't necessarily mean it doesn't exist.
All I've ever said is there's no evidence to support
the claim that there's a God. Okay, this is simply
no evidence. So that's where I'm coming from. But I

(26:24):
don't know anything. It's the people who claim to know
that you should have a problem with.

Speaker 8 (26:31):
I also likely overuse that word. I use that one
a lot. I use Jesus Christ a lot too.

Speaker 2 (26:36):
Well. See I never got to say any of that
stuff growing up because my mom. See my mom is
somebody who, uh my mom swears to this day to
me that she's never said the e F word. Now,
I tend to believe her because I don't know, it's
just I don't think it's really like her vibe, you know.
But when I was starting to get a little bit

(26:58):
older and I was starting to kind of get a
more sophisticated sense of humor, and I would tell my
mom chokes. Little by little, i'd work in some salty language,
but she would not abide any of the goddamn or
the Jesus Christ stuff. Oh no, no, because I mean
we grew up Catholic. I mean, she's not like a
Bible thumper, but she's like, she's not cool with it.

(27:18):
And so I never said that grown up.

Speaker 7 (27:21):
I remember the first time I accidentally, just talking like
a human being, I accidentally dropped an F bomb in
front of my mom, and I went oh, And it
wasn't like she chastised me. I was probably like, in
you know, my early twenties, I was a grown man
by that. Oh Jesus, but I was like, I was
like oh, you know, and she just kind of grinned
and we moved on. She had to have used it somebody.

Speaker 2 (27:41):
I don't know. I didn't know. My mom is pretty
legitimated something. Nope.

Speaker 7 (27:49):
I mean i'd hear she'd, you know, shrimp, she'd she'd
yellsh throughout the house, you know, if she dropped the
cast role or something.

Speaker 2 (27:57):
I don't know.

Speaker 7 (27:57):
It's a but no, I never heard her. I never
heard her throat any goddamn or Jesus Christ or anything
like that. So so there's probably a part of my
brain where I use that probably more than I should,
simply out of uh misplaced juvenile rebellion.

Speaker 2 (28:16):
I don't know.

Speaker 7 (28:17):
But anyway, thank you for the message, sir. What a
stupid question. But keep them coming because I like him.
Alex Jones is but you know, Alex Jones checks in
with us. Yeah, sh yeah, it's fine. He's an angry guy.

(28:39):
Alex Jones will check in with us occasionally. He is
asking the Supreme Court of these United States to save
info Wars from being acquired by the Onion. Remember the
Onion was going to buy Info Wars. Yes, and they
they got like a stay of execution, so they something
happened there, and Election said, well, I want to appeal
this because he owes a billion dollars of the Sandy

(29:00):
Hook families. Right, And so this guy spent his entire
career making things up and foisting them onto the tender
headed as fact whatever.

Speaker 2 (29:13):
And the Onion one's going to buy info Wars.

Speaker 7 (29:15):
So the only way that he can afford even a
fraction of what he owes these families is to liquidate
all of his intellectual property with info Wars. And the
very last people you'd ever want to get their grimy
little liberal myths on it are the Onion. And so
they're making another play to try to buy it again,
and he wants the Supreme Court to side with him.

(29:35):
And given the makeup of what they're doing out there,
they may very well who knows, but he has to
couch it in all these ways. It's like, listen, info
Wars is a valued source of information. He said that
with a straight face, and doesn't want the Onion to
grab it. So he is imploring the Supreme Court to

(29:57):
make sure that the Onion can't purchase info Wars.

Speaker 2 (30:01):
He should be happy anybody wants to buy you know
what I mean? Yeah, But you know what.

Speaker 14 (30:05):
Also, there's no skin off his ass because he's still
doing what he does and you're never gonna pay a
one and a half billion dollar verdict.

Speaker 2 (30:15):
He knows that, he said as much.

Speaker 7 (30:18):
That's why he started immediately socking away all kinds of
money overseas and putting things in his family members' names
and things like that because he wanted the fa He
just didn't want the fo portion. And uh but yeah,
sell it to the onion who cares. But boy, he's
he checks in with us and he gets his undies.

Speaker 2 (30:41):
And a twist does he ever?

Speaker 15 (30:44):
Allen Cox show on one's called the Allan Cox Show,
and this is.

Speaker 2 (30:53):
When the anti Christ is going to reveal himself. He
lives among the beasts and he scrasps two.

Speaker 6 (30:59):
Six five have an a one to double oh seven
or one eight three four eight one double oh seven.

Speaker 7 (31:15):
Three five two want to send a text. I'm a
dog guy, Rob, I'm not a cat guy. But I
did see this weekend that the IX Center, which by
the way, is not long for this world. You know,
somebody bought it or right like Amazon's good to turn
into something. Somebody bought the IX Center. But I was
seeing it this weekend. They said the world's largest cat show,

(31:37):
and I thought, oh my god, I want to see
the world's largest cat.

Speaker 2 (31:41):
I don't think gets what they meant. That is not
what they meant.

Speaker 7 (31:44):
Boy, when I dug a little bit deeper, surprised, huh yeah,
International Cat Expo.

Speaker 2 (31:50):
Now listen, I see this. I don't think there's any
room for mockery here, right.

Speaker 7 (31:55):
People love cats, and again I'm I'm still widely mistrustful
of guys with cats. But that's just one of my
unnecessary biases, I guess. But the Ixcenter this weekend, we're
talking tomorrow and Sunday, the International Cat Show and Expo.

Speaker 2 (32:18):
More than it confuses me so much.

Speaker 7 (32:22):
More than fifteen thousand whisker enthusiasts. Is that what cat
fans are called now, whisker enthusiasts.

Speaker 2 (32:30):
It's got to have a better name than that.

Speaker 7 (32:33):
Whisker biscuit enthusiasts will drop down to yeah, and groups
team up to showcase more than you know.

Speaker 2 (32:41):
Now, listen.

Speaker 7 (32:42):
The one good thing about these kinds of shows is
that there's a lot of opportunities for people to adopt
animals that need homes. Right, So, whether you're not you're
in the cats, and I'm not, but it's you know,
it's always better if a pet has a home, of course,
and you know everybody shows off their their breed of cats,

(33:02):
from the main coons to the hairless sphinx. Some people
love those hairless cats, and that is a sure sign
of a psychopath. Nevertheless, they'll have catty Oki, Rob, you're
not partial to a hairless cat?

Speaker 5 (33:20):
Yeah?

Speaker 2 (33:21):
Alright, man, Yeah, Roward Sheriff's deputy's arrest a man who
they say has more pussy than he can handle. I'm
Kathleen Corso with that story coming up on Channel six
Action News.

Speaker 7 (33:32):
That guy had a lot of cats. Boy, Kathleen Corso
down there in Florida.

Speaker 2 (33:36):
She was on the beat trying to get that dude
and his cat's taken away. If feline enthusiast, what was it?
You got to come up with something better than that?
Whisker enthusiastker enthusiasts, I don't like it anyway.

Speaker 7 (33:52):
This is, if you will pardon the pun terrible one,
this is cat net for people who love this kind
of stuff, boy, because then they go down the entry
entertainment schedule for the weekend.

Speaker 2 (34:02):
I mentioned the Catioke claws out comedy with some comedians.
There's a cat rapper.

Speaker 7 (34:11):
Oh good. But then you know there's all kinds of
feline experts and cat influencers. This actually says the word
cat influencers. They used to just be called owners. I
don't know what anyone's influencing. Tell you what influence your
cat to like, stay out of my face and then
you'll impress me. But it's all this weekend and it's

(34:36):
the biggest international cat show in the world, and so
you know, I would go, maybe just to see a
giant cat, because I think giant animals, any animal that
normally is not large, and you see it in large
form very entertaining to me.

Speaker 2 (34:53):
You know, I'm a dog guy.

Speaker 7 (34:54):
When you see one of those dogs is like the
size of a pony, that's very entertaining to me.

Speaker 8 (35:00):
Did you sit across from a huge pussy for four
hours a day? I would imagine that's.

Speaker 2 (35:04):
Enough for you. Are you speaking for yourself? Were you
saying you're sitting across from one me? You know, obviously.

Speaker 7 (35:19):
You know what they should have done. And this is
a huge swing to mas. Cotton Balls reminds me of
this on the text here. They should have gotten that
band from Milwaukee. Yeah, played like the Theremon and the
trumpet or something. The Wiscuits what were they called?

Speaker 2 (35:37):
We played.

Speaker 7 (35:39):
Played something from them a couple of weeks ago, and
they do like local shows or like a little art collective.

Speaker 8 (35:46):
They're in Milwaukee. The hissy Kits Hissy Kids, right, the
piano and Theremon jazz cats. They're in Milwaukee, Wisconsin. Why
were they not booked for this? I mean, I didn't
see if they're going to be there. I didn't see
anything that lets people know that.

Speaker 12 (36:06):
Most people refer to me as Theremon cat. My official
name is Whiskey.

Speaker 2 (36:15):
I'm Scotch, also known as Grumpy Cat.

Speaker 12 (36:22):
Well, the hissy Kits, we're two Milwaukee cats and we
play piano and Thereman.

Speaker 14 (36:29):
The hissy Kits are a couple of jazz cats in Milwaukee.
They've been playing together for a few of their nine lives.
The piano is self, explain it to me, but this
instrument is the Theremon. They both look like Mike Myers
and the live action cat in the hat. Remember how
terrifying he looked, and that management played without any physical contact.

(36:51):
Whiskey moves her hands closer and farther away from the
antennas to make an efurial. I guess it's appropriate to
play the theremon, you know, an instrument that gets play
without any physical contact like so many cat ladies.

Speaker 2 (37:06):
Oh, I get it, no physical contact. Bro took me
a second.

Speaker 7 (37:09):
It's okay, listen, It's all the low hanging fruit and
I'm happy to grab it for you anyway. That's a
great I would love to have had anybody told me
I would have tried to put the hissy Kits together
just as a third party, with no investment in either
of those. I would love to have put the hissy
Kits together with this International cat Expo only because that

(37:33):
Ixcenter I think is going away, so this is probably
likely to be the last time that they will have
that there. And again, I don't pay attention to this
stuff unless it's right in front of me, which this
just happened to be.

Speaker 2 (37:44):
So I don't know if this cat.

Speaker 7 (37:46):
Expo makes the rounds every year, you know, like the
Olympics every four years, and it just happened to land
in Cleveland, or if Cleveland is regularly hosting the world's
largest cat expo.

Speaker 2 (37:58):
Don't know.

Speaker 7 (38:01):
Alan those hissy kids doubled their followers since the first
time you talked about sixty fifteen hundred. Oh, I'm sorry, Yeah,
there you go. Alan you like those little teacup dogs.
I get very very nervous when I see people with
those very small dogs, because I'm like, Jesus, one wrong

(38:23):
move and you're gonna drop your purse or you're not
gonna know.

Speaker 2 (38:26):
The thing is, you know, I have to think that that.

Speaker 7 (38:28):
Obviously, people who have those really small dogs, it's like
an affectation, right, It's part of their personality.

Speaker 2 (38:34):
So I have to hope that they are like overly cautious.
But I don't know.

Speaker 7 (38:41):
If you treat your pet as an accessory, it seems
like maybe you're not paying as close attention to it.

Speaker 2 (38:47):
That's just me projecting, but I don't know.

Speaker 7 (38:49):
I had a neighbor up the street who had one
of those very tiny like teacup something or others, and
Jesus did it make me nervous should.

Speaker 2 (38:57):
Be out there walking it? And I was like, what
is it a set a muskrat?

Speaker 1 (39:02):
What is that?

Speaker 2 (39:03):
I have small dogs?

Speaker 7 (39:04):
It was no, but you have like what shitsuos or something? Yeah,
I don't mean that, you know what I'm talking about.
I do like literally those dogs that could sit in
the palm of your hand. You know, one of my
former student or friend, Leslie, when my former students breeds
Maine coon cats and it's going to be showing them

(39:25):
in competition this weekend. How about that, Rob, Maybe I'll
go out there and see some of that competition.

Speaker 2 (39:31):
Maybe maybe Leslie can get you some VIP tickets for
the cat shows. She knows a guy. Uh huh yeah,
all right, yeah, swinging a miss. They didn't get the
hissy kits out there, Alan. What about rainbow striped dildos
thrown at the w NBA games. Why yeah, I mean,

(39:52):
I get what you're going for. But again, not every
woman who plays in the WNBA is a lesbian, you know.
Now Again that is that their audi has broadened. You know,
fifteen years ago when I was hosting for the Chicago
Sky that entire audience was lesbian and high school basketball players.
They but they have broadened it considerably since then.

Speaker 7 (40:13):
So you know, you might be able to make the
case that, you know, the biggest LGBTQ contingent in professional
sports is in the WNBA. But not to a person,
I assume that's what they're going for rob unless maybe
they're just trying to inject some of some happiness into

(40:34):
an otherwise potentially grim situation. That's a nature of sports.
One team's fan base walks away very happy, the other
team's fan base walks away crestfallen.

Speaker 2 (40:44):
That's what's going to happen.

Speaker 7 (40:45):
If history is any guide, that's what's going to happen
in that Phoenix WNBA team tonight. They haven't won one
game in these finals, so Las Vegas can shut them
down tonight, shut them out. Imagine you get all the
way to the finals of any sports competition and you
don't win one game. That happens.

Speaker 2 (41:03):
I know it does.

Speaker 8 (41:04):
It's happening as we speak. It's not as uncommon as
we'd like to think it is. So he's anybody that
plays Toronto might be seeing the exact same thing. Yeah,
how about them Blue Jays man big game tonight too. Yes,
you know, I was talking to Mike Snyder this morning,

(41:26):
and the great, the legendary Michael Snyder. I was in
early this morning and then I went home came back,
but I was talking to Mike about it, and I'm like,
you know, I just want to see Seattle win and
Mike has such a way of saying things that like,
I'm like, oh, maybe I am wrong. He looked at
me and he goes, because they beat Cleveland, and I said, yeah,

(41:47):
he goes, he goes, think about the historic nature of
that for them. He goes, they had this huge lead,
they blew it, they lost, the Cleveland wins the division.
They come back, they beat Cleveland in the first round,
and then they go on to the ALC meaning the Tigers.

Speaker 16 (42:03):
Right.

Speaker 2 (42:03):
Yeah, He's like, how do you not root for that?
And I'm like, damn you, Mike Snyder.

Speaker 7 (42:07):
Well, he's very Yeah, he's he's very He's very objective
about it. Yeah, because that's how you know. Sports is
nothing about its stories exactly. I just go to my
reptile brain and I go, I want the Tigers to
lose because they knocked the Guardians out.

Speaker 14 (42:22):
Say that's exactly what I said. And don't get me wrong,
it's not. You know, Guardians are my B team. Then
I'm a a team.

Speaker 7 (42:27):
The reason I wanted to stay in it is because
I really like postseason day drinking. There I'll say it, Yeah,
it's not sports related. I like all the day drinking.
I mean, you can do that anytime you like. But
how about that Dodgers Phillies game. We were just talking
about Bill Buckner, and that's what this dude is going

(42:49):
to be in Philly. Yeah, of all the places to
f up, this guy clearly brain farted or panicked, and
he threw home instead of first, and he overthrew. I mean,
the Dodgers go to the NLCS from a wild throw
home this guy Orion Kirkering. Did you saw the footage anyway?

(43:11):
Oh yeah, oh my god? And the Dodgers move on.
I'll show you this if you're watching the live stream.

Speaker 2 (43:19):
Here, where's my sound? Jesus Christ? Nineteen buttons? I gotta
push here?

Speaker 15 (43:26):
Right?

Speaker 2 (43:28):
Has breaks his Pat Kirkering?

Speaker 17 (43:30):
Can I find it?

Speaker 2 (43:32):
Oh my goodness. He throws it away and the Dodgers again.

Speaker 4 (43:39):
He got in Philly?

Speaker 12 (43:41):
No less.

Speaker 2 (43:42):
Oh yeah, this guy's gonna have to move.

Speaker 18 (43:45):
Yes.

Speaker 7 (43:47):
I'd never even heard of this guy before, and now
I know I will always know who that guy is.
Oriyan Kirkering or Orion I don't know Oryan Kirkering. Well,
you could see he just said the mount and he
he brain farted or he panicked or something, and it
wasn't even a strong throw to home. It was like
he kind of flopped it off his hand, like his
brain realized in the midst of it that that was

(44:09):
the entirely wrong play.

Speaker 8 (44:10):
Oh yeah, and you could you could see instantly that
he was like, it was my brain had a million
scenarios for what can happen when I let go of
this ball, but a broken bat shot right back at
me is not one of them. Also, and he freaked out.
He had so much time to throw to first. Oh yeah,
he could. Oh god, but again, if you panicked, I mean,

(44:33):
but maybe not even thinking that it's okay, there's two outs, right, Oh,
I got it. I can make the play at home,
save the run. And it was the first thing he did.
Right as he started. You could see he's like, oh no, yes,
the ball just kind of rolled off his hand, and yeah,
I mean that's the kind of stuff that will just
haunt you the rest of your career.

Speaker 2 (44:52):
Totally.

Speaker 7 (44:52):
It was like when Tristan Thompson, right was it him
or Earl for the Cavs Lebroma screaming at him for
now throwing the ball?

Speaker 2 (45:00):
Yeah yeah, yeah, that was uh yeah, what was the
what was the thing on that?

Speaker 8 (45:04):
Was it?

Speaker 7 (45:04):
The it was it inbounds something, I don't know what
it was. There was a timeout or he thought there
was a timeout or there wasn't something that freaked out, Yeah,
of course. Yeah, so this guy just panics, Oh that sucks, man, Yes,
October nerves, baby, who doesn't have them? Right, everything's literally

(45:25):
on the line in a situation like that. Well, and
you see the Dodgers move on.

Speaker 8 (45:29):
You see a lot of that stuff happen too with
like you know those watching the NFL, Right, you got
a quarterback in the pocket and you hear footsteps, man,
and they just you see him just freak out.

Speaker 2 (45:42):
I think a lot of times that's what happens. You
have a million plans.

Speaker 8 (45:45):
What's the what's the Mike Tyson saying, right, you get
everybody has a plan, so they get plush in the face.
And I think that that's what a lot of that
stuff is, right, Like those NFL qbs, they're like, oh no,
this is gonna hurt. Oh I gotta get Oh my god,
this guy's and you throw the ball away or you
do something stupid that you never in a million years
would do as an NFL quarterback. These guys are doing
the same thing, you know, Oh it was such a
I mean, and again, you gotta feel bad for a

(46:05):
guy like that, you know, it's just such a drag.

Speaker 2 (46:09):
So what will the blue Jays play the No, the
blue Jays won't play the Dodgers. No, No, that that
well in the World Series if they if they need
to make it to the World see, but they're either
going to play the Tigers or Seattle Seattle. Yeah, yeah,
that'll be the ALC Sunday Night.

Speaker 6 (46:22):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (46:23):
Yeah, that was man, that's a that.

Speaker 1 (46:30):
Some boys quick ones just talking about how the show
gets into your life all day, every day, even when
you're sleeping. I still every time I hear general, I
stop and salute and wait for general whatever, general blah,
and it doesn't happen, but I still do it, you brainwasher.

Speaker 2 (46:52):
I started doing the salute again.

Speaker 7 (46:53):
It used to be a verbal salute back in the day,
and tell somebody would say something like general information, I'd
go general information.

Speaker 2 (47:00):
Me and Erica Lauren used to do that, and then
it just kind of went away. It kind of petered
out or whatever.

Speaker 7 (47:04):
And then maybe a couple of months ago, just to
people who watch the live stream know this, I've started
saluting again, and it made this guy is still doing
it verbally.

Speaker 2 (47:14):
It caught me off guard, and that's why.

Speaker 8 (47:16):
Because I just the first time I saw it, it
made me laugh so hard. Now I even looked over
at you. I was like, yeah, yep, oh yeah, I
love it, love it, love it, love it. It's so dumb.

Speaker 2 (47:25):
Oh, it's great.

Speaker 7 (47:26):
I stole it from my wife, she said she they
did that in college. And it's very, very funny, and
it's not always general. Somebody might go, oh, I've got
a kernel of popcorn in my teeth. I think you
salute a colonel, don't you?

Speaker 2 (47:42):
And I think you do. You're not gonna know.

Speaker 8 (47:44):
Because some people are like, oh, you said private parts
and you didn't select.

Speaker 2 (47:47):
You don't salute privates.

Speaker 19 (47:49):
I mean I.

Speaker 2 (47:50):
Salute my private I was gonna say every morning. I do,
at least once a day.

Speaker 7 (47:54):
But at him, that us and a good moaning to
you such right away from your slumber and let go
of your lumber.

Speaker 2 (48:07):
Yeah so, but thank you. Yeah, that's old school the
verbal salute. But I'm right there with you. I'm at
least doing the pantomime skill. That game was in La
not Philly.

Speaker 11 (48:22):
No.

Speaker 7 (48:22):
No, what I'm saying is that Philly fan base are
gonna be just you know, because Philly is one of
those towns where they're equally rioting whether they win or lose. Right,
so greasing the street lamps or whatever, that is not
the kind you don't want to return to that Phillies
fan base.

Speaker 2 (48:43):
After that, j R.

Speaker 7 (48:45):
Smith recovered the rebound and ran in the opposite direction.
Somebody said, I don't remember that, but okay, I don't
remember what there was something that I know. Man, for
some reason, I want to say that.

Speaker 2 (49:00):
Maybe that is right. I mean, Lebron just started screaming
aim he wouldn't throw it or something. Yeah, and again
the guy in the Phillies, it's not like it was.
It's not like he screwed up throwing home.

Speaker 7 (49:15):
It was just he had that half a second too
long panic where he couldn't get he couldn't get anything off,
and it kind of and it kind of just when
you watch it, it kind of like rolled off his
wrist like halfway through he second guessed himself.

Speaker 2 (49:30):
Well again on that play, the play always is to first. Yes,
yes it was. Again.

Speaker 8 (49:40):
My guess is the guy probably forgot there were two
down the car show.

Speaker 20 (49:45):
On Best Way to Resist the machines jump down your smocketphone.

Speaker 8 (49:55):
By listening to.

Speaker 20 (49:56):

off t shirt and rally towel.

Speaker 2 (51:09):
I have to assume there that.

Speaker 7 (51:10):
The progression of that is that you get the T
shirt and are so utterly excited by it you will
then need a towel.

Speaker 2 (51:23):
Yeah, don't touch me there. No, that's my no no square.
I cannot wait for Kevin Gates tomorrow night. I can

and I said, we should really sit down. This is
going to be like Yalta.

Rob.

Speaker 7 (53:51):
You're gonna be Stalin, I'm gonna be church Hill, and
he's gonna be who Roosevelt AnyWho. We'll talk to him shortly.
I've got some food news here.

Speaker 1 (54:04):
Hi.

Speaker 7 (54:04):
Fairly somebody were to say to you, hey, what is
the most popular fruit in the United States?

Speaker 2 (54:16):
I would hope you would first.

Speaker 7 (54:19):
Resist the urge to make a joke, but what do
you think is the most popular fruit.

Speaker 2 (54:24):
In the United States? Bananas? Is it your final answer?

Speaker 7 (54:31):
Yes, I'm sorry, bananas are not the most popular fruit
in these United States. I am because I'm magnanimous. I
am going to give you another shot. What do you
think is the most popular fruit in the United States?

Speaker 2 (54:47):
Apples?

Speaker 7 (54:50):
Damn it, Golly, you suck at this, Rob, A third
chance for you, all right? The most popular fruit in
the United States?

Speaker 18 (55:00):
Hmm.

Speaker 7 (55:04):
This is courtesy of the genius is over at Gourmet
Gift Baskets dot com.

Speaker 2 (55:08):
Grapes Grapes, no one likes grapes, rob Let alone.

Speaker 14 (55:16):
That's right, mangoes are main most popular fruit in these
United States.

Speaker 2 (55:23):
I disagree wholeheartedly. There is do you.

Speaker 7 (55:30):
Let the mango, rob Let, the mango do all the
hard work of making you love your life. Seasonal trends
show the America's fruit interests shift throughout the year. You know,
early in the summer, everybody's like, let me see those melons.
I can't tell you how often I'm using that phrase.

(55:52):
Whip out those cherries because I love cherries so much,
rob And then, of course, you know, you get later
in the summer. In the fall, you are kind of correct.
Late summer people start to think about grapes. But mango's
the number one fruit. I don't buy it now, Maine,
they gotta be different. They love blueberries more than anything else,

(56:16):
But mango the most enjoyed fruit in the United States. Now,
why are you so averse to this? Why are you
pushing back so hard on the mighty mango?

Speaker 8 (56:27):
Because I listened, I like mangoes, but there's no way
this country eats more mangoes than they do bananas.

Speaker 7 (56:33):
Trust me, I'm surprised, just like you are, especially since
you gotta get them when they're in the season, right, yeah.

Speaker 8 (56:40):
And you gotta get them when they're perfectly ripe Yuh listen,
I love I make a mango salsa that will knock
your socks off, Allen Cox, but oh God for you
two three times a year, you know what I mean?

Speaker 2 (56:54):
He put it on some scallops, uh huh, and then
I'm done. Why I like it.

Speaker 8 (57:00):
It's one of the best flavors on the planet. But
there's no way it is more popular than a banana
or an apple. You're well, here's why I think bananas
aren't making the cut. I think banana is the most
popular fruit that people intend to eat. Oh buy the
just let them rock.

Speaker 7 (57:16):
Well, you don't even you just you throw them on
the counter and then you forget they're there. And then
you go, oh, because what do people always say, Oh,
once they go bad, you can make banana bread.

Speaker 2 (57:24):
Yeah you can.

Speaker 7 (57:25):
Why is everybody reserving the garbage bananas for banana bread?

Speaker 8 (57:29):
We take the one, Then what do you end up
with a freezer full of banana bread that you never eat.
When we go to when we have bananas that go
that don't get eaten, we usually save them for smoothies.

Speaker 7 (57:41):
Again, I do too, but I end up with a
freezer full of frozen bananas in ziploc bags and you know,
ice that freezer burn rob. I can't have my bananas burned.
So yeah, the outliers are Maine with their blueberries and
Wyoming with their peaches. For whatever reason, we've got bureau

(58:03):
cheese and both of those states. I think the state
of Wyoming has a total of forty five people in it,
so boy, they must really really enjoy peaches.

Speaker 2 (58:11):
But yeah, no, listen, I like bananas too, but what
are you gonna do?

Speaker 7 (58:15):
They're just not number one in the United States now
they are number one in Australia. You know, we were
talking about flying to Australia.

Speaker 2 (58:23):
Barnar Arnar, where's my bannarers bar.

Speaker 7 (58:28):
Well, because we heard from our budd Jeff Outen Hudson
he's going to Australia. His daughter lives there, I think
he said, and he's got all kinds of stuff lined
up out there. But in Australia they love banarn Arnarnar. Yeah,
bananas and apples. You might recall the Australian children's group

(58:53):
called the Wiggles. They did a song called fruit salad. Yummy, yummy,
yummy yummy, And they sang primarily about bananas and apples,
and now it all makes sense. Look out, Why couldn't
these guys ever have actually been elected presidents of the

(59:16):
United States of America.

Speaker 2 (59:20):
They have a run.

Speaker 7 (59:21):
I have to feel like they we might be in
a better position than at least they knew their way
around a fruit.

Speaker 2 (59:31):
Millions of these guys still around the.

Speaker 7 (59:37):
E I have to assume, I mean, you are stealing
someone who teaches, if they're all free Jesus all right, anyway, Peaches,
and I'm so much better than Lump, I agree. And
Lump was like the big one. Like that, people played

(59:58):
the piss out of that song. Yeah, Lump was the
big one.

Speaker 8 (01:00:02):
And of course our good pal weird Al turned it
into Gump and made me love the song. Yes, Gump,
said alone on a bench in the park. I forgot
about Gump. Yeah, wow, we heard how Gumph he's gone?

Speaker 2 (01:00:20):
He's Gump? Is he inbred?

Speaker 17 (01:00:22):
No?

Speaker 2 (01:00:22):
No no, no, no no no, said helone in the
park my name for he got out of the remark
waiting vol the bas He just can say.

Speaker 11 (01:00:40):
What a gun is? Genius?

Speaker 7 (01:00:41):
This guy?

Speaker 1 (01:00:42):
Is he dump?

Speaker 15 (01:00:45):
Gump.

Speaker 2 (01:00:45):
Is he in bread.

Speaker 8 (01:00:48):
So good Gump hair day with I know. I think
it was in Austin. Where was I when weird Al
was here? I don't remember, but I was away. Was
it nine to eleven?

Speaker 2 (01:01:00):
Is that what it was like? God? He was a blossom? Yeah?

Speaker 7 (01:01:03):
I did like the whole sold out thing. Yeah, I
was on nine to eleven. Where the hell was I
on nine to eleven?

Speaker 2 (01:01:10):
That's a good question. I was at home, rob.

Speaker 7 (01:01:13):
Never forgetting Okay Saturday? Oh, that was Mike Polk's wedding.
That was when I ran into one Timothy Misney, which
is why he will be in here today. Had I
gone to weird Al, this is what you call your
domino effect. No Misney today.

Speaker 2 (01:01:30):
Hmm.

Speaker 7 (01:01:32):
Now with respect? Is that a trade off that I
probably should have made? I don't know about that.

Speaker 2 (01:01:40):
A good friend.

Speaker 7 (01:01:41):
I did not want to miss that wedding. They're lovely people,
and I got to re I got to see a
lot of people I hadn't seen.

Speaker 2 (01:01:47):
In a minute. It sounds like it was the social
event of the year. It certainly was. You're welcome. He's

(01:02:09):
kind of square.

Speaker 7 (01:02:16):
Where I mean that one writes itself right when he
when he first heard Lump, he did the song come
out before the movie?

Speaker 2 (01:02:27):
I would imagine, yeah, yeah, definitely right. It had to
have right.

Speaker 7 (01:02:32):
I mean, Forrest Gump was nineteen ninety four, if memory serves,
the song Lump was nineteen ninety five. As soon as
he heard Lump, He's like, I got it, I got
it right, like it fell in his lap.

Speaker 2 (01:02:46):
Yeah.

Speaker 7 (01:02:47):
My next masterpiece forst. Gump was ninety four, the song
Lump ninety five. Weird Awl goes, oh my god, yeah,
genius speaking of food.

Speaker 2 (01:02:57):
And then I'll move on.

Speaker 7 (01:02:58):
Where is all of the red hat outrage over Long
John Silver's new logo. I mean, granted, plenty of people
don't even know Long John Silvers is still around, which
is why these guys are coming out and saying we're
gonna change our logo. It's a good way to reintroduce

(01:03:19):
yourself to the public. They still have commercials, like if
you're you know, watching things, Long John Silvers is still
out there. I don't think I've been to one since
I was probably ten years old. But Long John Silvers
is rebranding. You know, they're largely a seafood joint. You'd
get fish planks and hushpuppies or whatever. They're putting chicken

(01:03:42):
front and center. Like every other place I know, are
we like neck deep in chicken or something? I mean
every place with the Chicken jayz, the chicken tenders and
the raising canes and the you know how much chicken
can people consume? But you know, casting your mind back

(01:04:05):
to the cracker Barrel fiasco, which they determined no big shock.
It was ninety percent bots that were getting everybody all
worked up on social media. And that's what I said
at the time. It's not like people genuinely care about
the cracker barrel logo. But I don't see anybody on
the right freaking out about the Long John Silver's logo.

Speaker 2 (01:04:27):
Well, what did they do to it?

Speaker 7 (01:04:29):
There's a chicken. They've got a big old chicken. It
says chicken and seafood. Now they want to be more
chicken centric. Long John Silver's, which obviously is a nautical
reference since nineteen sixty nine, and chicken nice. But if
you look at that logo, Rob, and this is what

(01:04:50):
I'm getting at, because they showed that chicken in profile,
what is it showing you? Only it's left wing? Where
is all of the fake outrage.

Speaker 8 (01:05:07):
If you look at that chicken and I'm just catching
up now, it's just getting to me in the live stream.

Speaker 2 (01:05:14):
Is that like a fish head? Where the chicken's tail is?
I do you see what I'm saying? Like, does that
look like the vaguely head of a fish. It's kind
of hard to tell. Vaguely. I don't know. I wonder
if they're trying to like really work that chicken and
seafood angle.

Speaker 7 (01:05:31):
Well, listen, they are trying to get back into the
public consciousness here.

Speaker 1 (01:05:38):
With that.

Speaker 2 (01:05:39):
But I'm just wondering why.

Speaker 7 (01:05:41):
I mean, you could hear a pin drop you thought
somebody would be screaming the we don't need your woke
Antifa chicken.

Speaker 2 (01:05:50):
I don't hear any of that. It's almost as though
it was all made up. AnyWho.

Speaker 7 (01:05:56):
Yeah, they are becoming a chicken forward over there at
Long John Silver's. Now whether or not that will work
in their favor, who knows. They're certainly jumping into an
already crowded field of all kinds of other places serving chicken.
So maybe they figure, well, maybe it's just time to

(01:06:17):
get on the bandwagon, you know, and they can't all
kill it. You know, what was the place out of
Crocker Park that couldn't make it work. They opened up
a hot chicken takeover. They were pretty good. They just couldn't,
you know. But there's all kinds of spicy chicken joints
and so who knows. But I just don't see people

(01:06:39):
screaming about the Long John Silver's logo, and I'm curious
why that is. Maybe somebody knows sterriper Scott says his
favorite fruit.

Speaker 2 (01:06:52):
Are you ready? Rob?

Speaker 7 (01:06:54):
It's a toss up between eggplants and avocados. You see
what he did there.

Speaker 2 (01:06:57):
I know exactly what he's doing. Throw tomatoes in their
two Scot. Everybody else will say apples and bananas. I'll
say plants and avocados because those are technically that's go
outside nor get out, get out.

Speaker 17 (01:07:17):
Yeah, ah boy, full of worry, Perry um hum m,

(01:07:41):
morning laughing happy fish.

Speaker 2 (01:07:44):
Now.

Speaker 7 (01:07:44):
I have to think that the reason Long John Silvers
is rebranding in the first place is because they never
got the rights to use this for an of their
commercials from Barns and Barnes.

Speaker 2 (01:07:54):
This would have been the smart move for them to do.
I remember this video on MTV. You want to so
they can't talk.

Speaker 7 (01:08:12):
You know, people ask me anytime we talk about weird Al,
why isn't weird Al in the Rock and Roll Hall
of Fame? You're asking the wrong person. You should be
asking Greg Harris and the gang over there. Why isn't
weird Al in the rock and Roll Hall of Fame?
Or whoever's on that board, right, Yan Winner and all
those people. Why isn't weird Al in the rock and
Roll Hall of Fame? And if it comes from this

(01:08:32):
misguided notion that while weird Al's career was based on
other people's music, he's long since not abandoned that, but
he's written more than enough of his own music.

Speaker 8 (01:08:45):
Everybody's career is based on everybody else's music. Elvis wouldn't
exist if it wasn't for black blues, right, lead Belly, Yeah, yeah,
and then all of those subsequent bands wouldn't exist. In
the same way, there would be no led Zeppelin if
there was no Robert Johnson, right, Like, I mean, come on.

Speaker 2 (01:09:07):
Yeah and on the long John Silver logo has nothing
to do with race, creed or any kind of political statement.
That's why they saying, yeah, none of it does. That's
my point.

Speaker 7 (01:09:17):
There was none of that with the cracker barrel logo either,
but everybody had to make it a nuclear situation, so
why not the Long John Silver's logo.

Speaker 8 (01:09:27):
Those people seem to care about that stuff so much. Yeah,
there was nothing political about it until someone made it political.
If it was just a logo change, it would have
been fine, which of course it was just a logo change, right.
I thought companies were supposed to be able to do
what they wanted to do. By the way Long John Silvers,
I have to think that they're going to get into

(01:09:48):
trouble with some women's rights organizations, rob because you know,
they served that battered change.

Speaker 15 (01:10:03):
Can we get out of here, We've got some things
to do. Allen Cox Show on one hundred points even.

Speaker 2 (01:10:14):
Called the Alan Cox Show. You met Alan? Oh my god,
I forgot about Allen. Okay, you've a wait.

Speaker 6 (01:10:20):
Board two one six five seven eight one double oh
seven or one eight hundred and three four eight one
double oh seven.

Speaker 2 (01:10:26):
Oh you can tell you everybody, you can't tell me.

Speaker 16 (01:10:30):
Everybody there everybody. I'm the man, I'm the pad, I'm
the many boys.

Speaker 13 (01:10:38):
It's Becky from Wayne County. I'm very excited that you're
having Tim Misney on today. I have one of his
hoodies that I bought. It's like an Andy Warhol print,
and I think all the proceeds go to Cleveland Food Bank,
which is great. And every time I wear it out,
so many people tell me how awesome it is, and
of course it is very awesome.

Speaker 2 (01:10:58):
So I hope you have a good week, and bye.

Speaker 7 (01:11:01):
Tim Misney. Your reputation precedes you wherever you go. People
already leaving the messages, Oh my god, Timothy Misney esquire
back in as the kids say the house, how.

Speaker 2 (01:11:14):
Are you doing, my brother? How are you good? I
want to tell our listeners how we reunited. We were
at Mike and Stephanie Folk's wedding reception, yes, and I
saw you from Afar and I said, that looks like
European royalty. You got this magnificent mane of gray hair.
Of course, I'm envious of anybody that has a magnificent

(01:11:35):
man of anything. And you don't hear all the people
who come up behind me and say excuse.

Speaker 20 (01:11:39):
Me, ma'am.

Speaker 2 (01:11:40):
And you had to snappy sport code on and I
looked at it and said, this guy's a European royalty.
You really did, And we got closer to, hey, how
you doing, and then you were magnanimously invited me to
the show. I said, it asked to be here. Broke, yeah,
I said.

Speaker 7 (01:11:57):
After that weekend, I said, I ran into Tim Disney
and he hasn't been on the show in a long
long time. I said, but if you want to talk
to Tim Disney in a social situation, you got to
take a number. Because you're a guy who can stand
there and everybody has something they want to say to you.
I have to assume you were there. There was a
lot of media people there. Obviously Mike, Stephanie was at

(01:12:18):
Channel three. Mike is still there, she's over at MPR now.
But I have to assume that a lot of those
media people are coming up to you asking for advice
on pre nups.

Speaker 2 (01:12:28):
Things like that. You know, maybe what I get a
lot is my kid likes you, and I do videos,
you know, personalized video for the kid, right and like that. Yeah,
it was it was a guest. It was a It
was a fantastic wedding reception. It was big. There were
a lot of people at that way forget about it,
and didn't Stephanie look like a princess? Awesome, fantastic and
what a great couple. Well, Mike, uh talk to me

(01:12:51):
sometime back about marrying her. I said, uh, I don't know.
I've initially thought he was a lucky one, and I
thought about it and I texted back I said, no,
Stephanie's the lucky one. That I texted back again, I said,
you know, I went for a long walk and I
think you're both alive. Yeah, they're a great couple. They
really are very nice. Yeah.

Speaker 7 (01:13:09):
Okay, it's been a long time since you've been on
the show. Yes, sir, have you had more children since
you've been on this show? Because you and I both
have a handful of kids. Yes, not together of course, right.
You know I have a fifteen year old yeah, and
a son and twelve year old twins year old yep,
because I have a twenty four year old, yes, a
twenty one year old and a nine year old.

Speaker 2 (01:13:31):
Wow.

Speaker 7 (01:13:31):
So yeah, I was almost out, brother, I was almost
out and then yeah. But it gives you I'm an
old dad obviously, but it gives you a thank you.
It gives you a broad spectrum to kind of work
with too. Right when you're chasing a kid around, and
I bet you that you're a better dad.

Speaker 2 (01:13:46):
Not to say with your twenty six year old you
were not a good dad, but I think you're a
better dad as you've been sure over time with your
nine year old.

Speaker 7 (01:13:52):
It's a weird bit of calculus because for people who
have obviously I'm you know, these kids are not from
the same wife, right right, and so you're you kind
of do have this not unfortunate, but you do have
this weird thing where you go, well, i'm older now,
my kid and my wife are getting a better version

(01:14:14):
of me than the other people did. So it's a
weird thing in your head where you're like, it's just
a function of life and learning things about yourself and
how to interact with other people. But I mean, my
older kids grew up in Michigan, so I was going
there all the time because I didn't want them growing
up going I never saw my dad, you know what
I mean.

Speaker 2 (01:14:31):
And radio you move around a lot.

Speaker 7 (01:14:32):
So I put a lot of miles on a lot
of cars making sure that those kids grew up with me,
even if I wasn't there every day. Yeah, So now
it's you know, it's it was obviously it was a
good investment in time and resources, but it is weird
to get older and go they're getting a better.

Speaker 2 (01:14:48):
Version of me. They just really yeah, yes, sir, Yeah,
when was the last time you were inside a courtroom?
Do you litigate? I or you a guy that says,
because you've got a team, got tea yeah, you and
my forte is evaluating cases and negotiating. That's my forte. Now,

(01:15:10):
between the time we take the case on and the
time that we actually negotiate a settlement, there's a lot
that needs to be done, and I have a great
team that does it. But there's a couple of cases
that are coming up that I will personally be trying
some big cases.

Speaker 7 (01:15:25):
But how do you how do you determine what's what's
the criterion that you determine like this requires the Tim
Disney guns, Like I have to be in this.

Speaker 2 (01:15:34):
I got to have my hands on the wheel for
this right. Really, it is the level of the case,
the complication of the case in terms of damages. You know,
in any case, you first have to prove liability, who's
right who? Then you prove damages what is the case worth?
So the more complicated the case, and I you know,
in a way, the bigger the case, the more resources

(01:15:55):
we're putting in. I feel compelled to drive the bus
when the resources are quite significant.

Speaker 7 (01:16:01):
And I will say too, there are a lot of
people in your profession who will take the bones of
something someone pretends brings to them as far as like
if they think they have a case or something, and
they will try to stuff it and make it work.
I'll speak And I only mention this because anecdotally I
had called Tim. This was many, many years ago, and

(01:16:22):
I had a situation where I was thinking that I
might have been that I might have had a case
for something. I was in Chicago, I was visiting some
friends and something had happened, and I called him out
of the blue and I said, hey, is this something
where I might have a case?

Speaker 2 (01:16:35):
Because I was pissed and I had a full head
of esteem.

Speaker 7 (01:16:37):
And Tim goes, you probably don't, right, and you were
candid about it, and obviously you don't want to waste
your time, you want to waste mine. But there are
a lot of people who would go, yeah, yeah, we'll
see what we can do exactly, And that's not like.

Speaker 2 (01:16:49):
Really your thing, you know. I have a saying good
cases get better, bad cases get worse. Yeah, And when
you play pretend and think you can fabricate something. At
the end of the game, everybody is disappointed. So I
kind of take you know, prime cases where the liabilities
is there, and then the damages, and then of course

(01:17:10):
the third prong in the equation is you've got to
find insurance. And tragically, there are many cases where people
are involved in catastrophic injury cases, particularly car accidents, and
no one has insurance. And so you could, you know,
try to garners some guy's wages who works at a
gas station, but good luck with that. You're not going
to get much. Yeah, So you know, every case is

(01:17:31):
like a snowflake. A snowflake, it's unique onto itself. And
I think my forte over the many years has been
to evaluate the cases and then work on negotiating a
settlement and like that.

Speaker 7 (01:17:45):
So I keep seeing an article about how you're you're
in the process of making a documentary or a TV show.
Over the years, there's been these different iterations, right, and
I've all and it's like we're edging with this Tim
Disney thing or something, and I'm not quite sure where
this is. It was going to be a show, then,
it was going to be a documentary. It was going
to be a mockumentary. I saw at one point which

(01:18:05):
I was like, this is unbelievable. Keyword here is evolution.
Yeah okay, And every aspect of my life.

Speaker 2 (01:18:11):
Continues to evolve. And I like that, not stagnant, and
things continue to move forward and evolve. In terms of
the movie, the Disney movie, I want it to be
a true documentary that has some great messages. And I'll
tell you the genesis of it. How it all came about.
A couple of years ago, I was asked to speak

(01:18:33):
to Chagrin Falls High School. Talked about one hundred and
fifty two hundred kids, and it was amazing. I got
a couple three standing ovations during my talking. It had
nothing to do with the law. It had to do
with life. Yeah, okay. And the next week I got
nineteen thank you notes in the mail. Allen, I didn't
think kids knew what stamps were. I didn't think they

(01:18:54):
knew how to write curseite right, Yeah, and so some
of these notes that I got were heartfelt. I had
a bad relationship with my mom. You talked about honesty,
and I'm being honest and I have a great relationship
or a kid and soccer said, I wasn't doing well,
but you said hard work beat talent. That doesn't work hard.
I've been working hard and now I'm starting I'm playing

(01:19:15):
more in the team. So I thought about trying to,
you know, capsulize this message and put it in a
forum where, you know, people don't read books. I thought
about writing a book, but you know how many people
would actually say, no, I get it, you know. So
we want to do a documentary that really lays out
lessons of life that could apply to anybody. And my

(01:19:37):
hope at the end of the day is that every
coach whould want their player to see it, every teacher
would want their student to see it, every parent would
want their kid to see it.

Speaker 7 (01:19:46):
Right now, neither Rob nor I are from here, but
I've been here now almost sixteen years, so I'm pretty
well in the fabric. But when he first came to town,
I was kind of trying to get him up to
speed with a lot of the things that were going
on here and things and the Tim Disney billboards were
going to be part and parcel of that. But because
by that time it wasn't even I know that they're

(01:20:06):
still like the I make them pay and you know
what I do and all that kind of stuff. That
was a But when I saw the first time that
I saw the just the Eyes billboard, I was like,
this is genius. And I know there's different iterations like
Becky from Wayne County said, there's the Indie Warhol wine
that has been rendered in merch and things like that.
When I saw the eyebrows, and then it became people

(01:20:26):
from who weren't from here. You'd see it pop up
on Reddit, people like, hey, I went to Cleveland for
the weekend to go to the Rock and Roll Hall
of Fame. Who the hell is the guy with the eyes?

Speaker 2 (01:20:35):
That's right? What was the first iteration? Was it going
way back? Whatever? The first tim Disney billboard was? Was
it your idea?

Speaker 7 (01:20:43):
I mean, obviously you go to any city and it
seems like the bulk of billboards are lawyers, right, but
most of them are like I'm the hammer Yours were
like you had the pinstripe suit.

Speaker 2 (01:20:53):
Yes, you know, and then just the eyes. Yes. Well,
I'll tell you how the eyes came about. One day
I said to my crew, why don't we do something
just my eyebrow? And they looked at me like they're
lobsters coming out in my ears. Yes, And I said,
what's the worst thing that could happen to me? They're
going to send the swat team over to assassinate me?
I don't think. So let's have fun with it. So

(01:21:14):
we put it out there and instantaneously someone took a
picture of it and said, wat's this? And the responses
that we got it was crazy that if aliens came
to visit us, they would assume he's our leader for
you know, blob you know, like, how do you get
that kind of response?

Speaker 14 (01:21:32):
Yeah?

Speaker 7 (01:21:32):
Nuts, Well, because I think there's something genius in giving
people an image that explains nothing. Yes, even if you
were brand new in what you do, if you had
put that up, people would have found you that way.

Speaker 2 (01:21:45):
How long have you been practicing? Why now believe it
or not? Next month? Forty five years? Forty five years?
Can you believe it?

Speaker 1 (01:21:53):
Brother?

Speaker 2 (01:21:53):
Isn't it crazy?

Speaker 7 (01:21:54):
I just had my at the beginning of September Labor
Day weekend, I have my thirtieth and aversary in broadcasting
blue radio, and it's this weird dichotomy where you go, Wow,
On the one hand, I'm so fortunate to have had
a career that long in this god forsaken business, right,
but it seems to go so quickly, so it's like.

Speaker 2 (01:22:14):
This double edged sword.

Speaker 7 (01:22:15):
You're like, I've been lucky to do it for that long,
But then you look back and you go, Jesus thirty
or forty five years or whatever.

Speaker 2 (01:22:21):
Crazy. The common denominator between the two of us is
that we both love what we do. You know, people,
and we're both devilishly handsome. I didn't want to be
aven to say that, thanks for You're far too humble
to mention it yourself very much, of course, but you know,
to do what you like to do. I get great
pleasure out of it. Sounds corny, but making a big
difference for people who, without my help have no chance

(01:22:44):
of justice. Who's going to go some guy who suffers
a tragedy, He's going to go up against a multi
billion dollar entity like the Cleveland Clinic, university houses, et cetera.
He has no chance. But I level the playing field,
and I take great delight in that, and that and
that turns me on, and that gives me a reason
to get up every day. And I'm going to do

(01:23:04):
it as long as I possibly can. And we're just
I like to say, we're reaching our stride right now.
It's all coming together.

Speaker 7 (01:23:11):
Architectural Digest does these walk throughs of celebrity homes. They
do a video component of it, they do a print
component of it. Cleveland Magazine years ago, if I recall correctly,
did one of those for misney Land.

Speaker 2 (01:23:24):
Yes, for your home. And I guess at the time,
I was like, Oh, he's got a big m on
a gate before. Oh no, misney Land is like a
goddamn compound, right, I mean you've got some acreage out there. Yeah,
it's any lamas. I have nothing, no hobbies that eat, yeah,

(01:23:44):
okay except my children, and yeah, my kids aren't our hobbies, right,
But no, I'm so fortunate. And what keeps it in
perspective for me is Allen. I grew up in a
one bedroom bungalow in Euclid. Five people lived in it, okay,
And I started working when I was fourteen years old.
I went to my dad one morning, Sunday morning. He's

(01:24:06):
sitting there in the breakfast nook and he's drinking a
coffee and reading the paper, and I said, Dad, I
made a decision. He goes, yeah, what and he didn't
look up, and I said, I'm going to go to
Saint Joe High School. A bunch of buddies in the
neighborhood and I were going to go to Saint Joe's.
He said that's nice. Now, how are you going to
pay for it? So I said, Dad, there's a golf
course near a home. I'll go see if I get

(01:24:27):
a job. So I rode my bike there and I
said I need a job to pay my tuition. And
the guy said, we could hire you fifty cents an hour,
and you're the low man on a totem pole. Your
job this summer is to clean garbage cans and toilets. Well,
one saturday I made I worked ten hours. I came
home with five bucks in my pocket. I walked around
the neighborhood, pulled the five bucks out to every kid
and said, how much you got? I got nothing. I

(01:24:49):
got five bucks. Who gave it to you?

Speaker 5 (01:24:50):
Gave it to me.

Speaker 2 (01:24:51):
I earned it. I realized at fourteen, if I work hard,
really hard, I have a chance of getting things I
want in life. Were your parents stereotypical like of that
generation where they're head down completely? My dad was I
got my work ethic from my dad. Yeah, you were
two three jobs. He was an MP in World War two,

(01:25:11):
so that tells you everything you need to know. Taught
us how to shake hands, polish your shoes, and if
we ever even looked at our mom wrong please. Okay.
So different era, different time, and I'm.

Speaker 7 (01:25:23):
Well people, Yeah, people talk about like work ethic like
it's some old timey thing, like it's it's it's thrown
at a younger generation. But my thought is always, well,
if we had the technology then that kids have now a,
we probably would have done the exact same thing.

Speaker 2 (01:25:39):
Oh I'd be so screwed up, That's what I'm saying.

Speaker 7 (01:25:41):
But also it's like, to me, work ethic was always
it wasn't if you work hard you succeed. It was
if you work hard, you fail better, or you learn
how to fail or that because that's part of it too.
That's not like an old timey thing to me. It's
like that's something that that's not going to go wrong
for you, even if you don't succeed or whatever.

Speaker 2 (01:26:01):
Man keeping your head down and doing the work. Well,
I got to tell you, brother, I don't care what
someone's political affiliations is or are or what their religious
beliefs are. I judge people on one singular thing, and
that's their work ethic. If they have a good work ethic,
we have a ninety nine percent chance of getting along great.

(01:26:21):
If they don't have a good work ethic, we got
a zero chance, and we're gonna have big problems and
shockingly and things that I do. You know, in my profession,
I run into people who don't have a good work ethic.
They may be another lawyer, they may be paralegal, they
may be an expert on it all like colleagues and
peers and yeah, and they have a very lazy, fair

(01:26:42):
attitude and no sense of urgency. And it makes me crazy,
crazy because it's a waste of your time and your resource.

Speaker 1 (01:26:49):
That's it.

Speaker 2 (01:26:50):
And you know, come on, man, let's go. Yeah.

Speaker 7 (01:26:52):
Did you ever and maybe you can refresh my memory
because I've been here for quite some time. I don't
ever recall you in a position where you were had
political aspirations?

Speaker 2 (01:27:02):
Am I remembering that correctly?

Speaker 7 (01:27:03):
Or was there a time where it's like maybe I'll
do an exploratory committee about may Or Misney.

Speaker 2 (01:27:08):
Well, when I was at Saint Jo's, I did run
for a class officer and somehow I got elected. So
technically I have a political background, but you know, the
time it takes away from one's family. I'm very fortunate
to be able to spend a crazy amount of time
with my kids. And I was contacted recently by one

(01:27:32):
of the head of the Democratic Party that they wanted
to run me for governor governor of Ohio, and I
said to him, I said, well if I if I ran,
I would win, But you know what, my family is
more important. You think you'd win if you ran for
governor oh To discuss nothing to really absolutely, because these
days I mean nothing. Just going from what you said

(01:27:55):
a second ago, You're like, I don't care about your affiliation. Obviously,
it's it's so fraud Now it's not nineteen ninety two anymore.
It's not you know, it's not even twenty ten anymore. So, man,
it's just it's strike.

Speaker 7 (01:28:10):
I have nothing but respect for people who are like
I want to affect change in that way, but it
just feels like a lose lose.

Speaker 2 (01:28:17):
Well, the reason why I think I would have some
success with it is because my message permeates across the board.
I don't cater to anyone social economic strata one type
of individual and put another type down, right, I think
the message would translate across the board. And I found

(01:28:38):
that with you know, my speaking, I've gone to been
invited to a number of colleges and universities to talk.
And you talk to a group and every group is
represented in that room. If there's you know, two three
hundred people, every group, you're going to have some Republicans,
You're going to have some Democrats, You're going to have
some people who are anarchists, you have the whole yep.

(01:28:58):
And when you get the whole group nodding their head
and agreeing with basic principles like two plus two US four. Yeah,
and but that's that is something that would take so
much time, and it would really take time away from
my family, and I couldn't do that. Are you familiar
with peers in other cities who have kind of their

(01:29:19):
own I'm thinking of one in particular.

Speaker 7 (01:29:21):
There's a lawyer in Buffalo named Lindy Korn. Are you
familiar with Lindy Corn. I think she's a workplace discrimination lawyer.
I think that's her area of expertise, Okay, And I
play clips of her because we have listeners all over
the place to listen on the app and one of
our people in Buffalo send me these clips.

Speaker 2 (01:29:35):
I'm gonna play one for you. Here a couple of them,
and I go, this is the Tim Disney of Buffalo.
Right now.

Speaker 7 (01:29:41):
She's not doing you know, personal injury. I don't think
she's doing workplace discrimination. Okay, right, let me find one here.
I'll play it for you.

Speaker 2 (01:29:50):
Her boss.

Speaker 21 (01:29:53):
And squeezed her breasts, which felt sexual in nature, not
like a greedy.

Speaker 7 (01:29:58):
Yeah, she has these television commercials that she'll air, you know,
local affiliates, and she's got like blue hair, and you know,
she's an older woman or whatever, but she's very prolific
in that market.

Speaker 2 (01:30:09):
I don't know if she's got billboards or whatever.

Speaker 7 (01:30:11):
But it's like I used to be on in Detroit
and I would go there for appearances and things, and
there'd be Yomanna Cruz, who was one of the lawyers there.
So I wonder if there's like a justice League of
lawyers who are all kind of in the same strata
as a right, Well, I think they're in each city
there is a lawyer or some lawyers.

Speaker 2 (01:30:32):
It's it's a very small percentage, I say less than
two three percentages who have the ability to communicate a
message and the message resonates with people. Right, That is
unique onto itself. It's it. It is a it's a
unique thing.

Speaker 6 (01:30:48):
But it is.

Speaker 2 (01:30:49):
Partially optics too. You can't discount that.

Speaker 7 (01:30:51):
I mean, you you cut an imposing If you were
one of these other with no disrespect to the other
people here in the local legal profession, if you were
one of these other scrubs who are on the side
of a bus, it wouldn't be the same. I mean
you look, you know, a bald guy in a pinstripe suit.
I mean you can't discount that look either.

Speaker 2 (01:31:09):
Right, Yeah, the optics are important, but when you couple
it with a genuine message that's organic in nature and
we're having fun with it for some reason, it connects
like I never thought possible.

Speaker 7 (01:31:20):
So what is the state of this documentary situation? Is
this something that's going to We're finally gonna absolutely I
can buy some popcorn and a cherry coke and watch
this friggin thing tell.

Speaker 2 (01:31:30):
A large popcorn, yeah large part right, Yeah, I'm hopeful
that we are working now on scripting it. And you know,
it's kind of like any creative process. If you're writing
a poem, you look back the next day and you
change something, you add something, so it's always evolving. But
I think we're getting close on our tight outline the

(01:31:51):
stories we want to tell, how we want to tell it.
But it's going to be a very genuine format and
I think it's going to be very interesting and a
lot of fun and entertain Well.

Speaker 7 (01:32:00):
A listener texted me and said that the best billboard
you've done so far is the Mount Rushmore billboard.

Speaker 2 (01:32:05):
How about that? How about that? Now? When I said,
Ellen that it's organic in nature, a Facebook follower suggested
that Mount Misney. Yeah, so we we we picked up
on it. But you know they're they're all the billboards
are organic in nature. When when we were pregnant with
our first son, Max, we went for an exam and

(01:32:27):
the uh, the nurse was taking the information on seventeen
was eight months pregnant and taking information about Max and
very nice to her, complimentary on her shoes and her purse,
and got all the information. She looks at me and
she says, and you are said okay, I said, that's
how it is. I'm Tim, I'm Max's Max's father, and

(01:32:51):
she said, and what do you do for a living?
I said, actually, I handle the maintenance at the trailer
park where we live. And she and she said, now
you don't. I said, you know what I do? Boom,
you know what I do. I'm to Disney. You know
what I do. That's hot. That's how it came about.
So it's organic in nature and it connects. Yeah, congratulations,
it's good to see you. Now, before we wrap it up,

(01:33:14):
I have I have as I brought you some eggs.
I have eight or nine chicks and every day they
lay eggs and I want you to have that those
fresh eggs or Misney chickens. He makes them lay. Come on. Yeah,

(01:33:34):
my friend Bobby Jacobson, she's she's amazing and she she
came up with that level. Are you aware that today
is National Egg Day? I did know that.

Speaker 7 (01:33:43):
Why do you Why do you think I brought them?
Come on to make them pay with a clock. I
love eggs, that's no joke. I eat them every morning.
Oh yeah, how can I eat the Misney eggs? Though
they're gonna be like I have to keep them in
the fridge and never touch them.

Speaker 2 (01:33:56):
Now, no man, And and you'll see the the yolk
has a nice yellow orangish uh tin to it, and
they taste differently and it's it's it's remarkable. Yeah, thank
you brother, Please enjoyment, good health, God bless you things man.
Good to see you, hope to see You'll be a stranger,
I won't. The Ellen Cox Show on one of course

(01:35:00):
Got my incarceration tickets already. Don't we have a code

My Chemical Romance is going to be one of the headliners,
a big return for them, but they're really going into
the Death Corps next year.

Speaker 2 (01:35:34):
So like Behemoth and just a ton of those kinds
of bands are playing.

Speaker 7 (01:35:39):
They announced seven Dust and they announced today they announced
them Onto Marsh Iced Tea and body Count are going
to play their first Ohio show in frigging twenty years.
Sepultura they are doing their last handful of performance as ever.
They'll play Sonic Temple in Flames and Creator and Devil
Driver and there's really really good lineup for Sonic Temple.

(01:36:05):
We gave away some tickets before they went on sale.
We'll have more to give away. And boy, you can't
swing a cat rob without hitting an amazing show coming
to Cleveland.

Speaker 2 (01:36:17):
They just keep stacking them up.

Speaker 7 (01:36:18):
So they they had already added Behemoth and Cradle of
Filth and Death Clock and Dying Fetus and Suffocation and
all these great bands, and they just announced. I was
thinking Seven Dusts played this last year, but maybe I'm misremembering.

Speaker 2 (01:36:33):
Is seven Dust announced seven Dust is on? Yeah? Oh
I'm in see I didn't even go this year.

Speaker 8 (01:36:38):
That's they're one of my absolute favorite bands, one of
the best live bands I've ever seen.

Speaker 2 (01:36:42):
Yeah, Electric call Boy.

Speaker 7 (01:36:44):
If you're hip to them, they're playing Sonic Temple and
the plot in you, so they're really hitting all they're
they're going in on Death Corp and they're going in
and kind of like Emo, and they're going in on
this band bloody Wood from New Delhi. We're actually playing
them tomorrow night on our metal show. Bloodywood is going
to do Sonic Temple and they sing primarily in Hindi
or Nepali or something, but we're playing tomorrow night. We

(01:37:06):
do a metal show here called two Hours to Midnight
and it starts at ten pm. It's me and it's
Corey Rodick and it's Pat Butler, and each of us
throw in a bunch of songs that we want to
play for you. Play some local metal, play some brand
new stuff, play some throwbacks, and have a good time.
So if you're into metal, join us tomorrow night, because

(01:37:27):
sometimes we end up getting preempted, but we've had a
good run recently, run last week on Tomorrow night on
the week after and there's no podcast component of it,
so you do have to listen to it live. I
do post the playlists every week. Maybe you want to
recreate the show in the privacy of your own home.

best dude. Oh my god.

Speaker 6 (01:40:04):
Man.

Speaker 2 (01:40:05):
I know there's some people to give him a hard time,
but I just like that dude.

Speaker 8 (01:40:08):
I mean, obviously I've not met him, but but we
sat down in here and talked like we've been best
friends for twenty years and I don't talk to many people.

Speaker 2 (01:40:16):
He was just he's great.

Speaker 14 (01:40:17):
Yeah, was a pro man, you know what I mean,
Like some people, they just they're good at what they do.
There's not a lot of bullshrimp with them. They just
they're good at what they do and they're Yeah. But
he's still a long way man.

Speaker 8 (01:40:28):
You could see though that there's there's a difference in that, right,
Like there's there's baffling with bs, and then there's that
right like he's dude, no man, you know, genuine asking
about your family. You know, hey, man, oh you have kids.

Speaker 2 (01:40:40):
Well he and I are both old dads. Yeah yeah, but.

Speaker 8 (01:40:43):
Even me, who he's never met. You know, he just
was asking que oh, what do you know your kids?
And how old and blah blah blah and Sharon story.
I mean we sat in here for five minutes before
you guys went on. It just it was great, nice guy.

Speaker 7 (01:40:54):
And the best billboard is around August Misney has one
up that says, do well in school life will.

Speaker 2 (01:41:00):
Make you pay. Yeah. I saw that one. Yeah, my
kid Mike Cali.

Speaker 7 (01:41:06):
There's one where he's got the welding mask on and
the you know, there's a million of them.

Speaker 8 (01:41:10):
Yeah, Like you said, the eyebrow one is just like,
that's such a great thing, just like literally just your eyebrows.

Speaker 2 (01:41:15):
That's all it takes. That's when you know that you're
iconic in a certain area where you can do that
and people know exactly what it is.

Speaker 8 (01:41:21):
When we first came to town, it was one of
the first questions. I asked, that's what we were talking about.
I think you had your headphones on, and I told
him the story about how when we got here. One
of the first things I did. I think I even asked,
I think you were who. I asked, I'm like, what's
with these billboards?

Speaker 20 (01:41:33):
Right?

Speaker 8 (01:41:33):
Eyebrows? And you're like, oh, he's a lawyer, blah blah blah,
and he kind of sort of explained it. So Cally
and I, my old my youngest became fascinated with with
these billboards and every time one would come out, we'd
laugh or whatever, because both of us can do that
eyebrow thing, you dip your eye. So my daughter during
that whole thing, I text her yesterday and I said,
I forgot to tell you we're having Tim Disney in.

(01:41:53):
And she's like, oh my god, Dad, you got to
tell him we can do the eyebrow. So during the interview,
she texted me this picture and it's her doing in
the eyebrow and uh, move over the rock and she goes,
she goes, just imagine me on those billboards. Dad, Uh huh.
It's just so funny how something that little can make
such a big deal, even to a kid.

Speaker 2 (01:42:12):
I will say, is the first guest I've ever had,
and I've had a lot to bring me eggs and
a clock. You've heard someone clock Nope, that's a two fer.
I heard he had a big clock.

Speaker 8 (01:42:24):
Huge And the thing is right now, I have such
clock envy. Yeah, I mean it's amazing. Nothing beats fresh
eggs too. Man, right out the chickens, cooter, I'm telling you, man,
they just my brother has chickens. Like it's so incredible.
I wonder I should ask Misney if he had ducks.

(01:42:47):
I should have asked next time I have him back,
if he if he doesn't have any eggs where you
can get some Misney will make them lay eggs.

Speaker 2 (01:42:55):
That's so great. Calves lose again.

Speaker 7 (01:42:58):
The Calves and the bull have only played each other
so far in the preseason, and the Bulls had taken
both games. Took it by one point on Tuesday here
at home last night at the United Center, rather uh
one nineteen one to twelve of balls against the Calves.
Two more preseason games Sunday and Tuesday, against Boston and Detroit, respectively,

(01:43:19):
and then they will begin the regular season on Wednesday,
the twenty second in New York against the Knicks.

Speaker 2 (01:43:26):
The home opener is Sunday, the twenty sixth. I will
have those tickets for you all.

Speaker 7 (01:43:30):
Next week Calves will play the Bucks for the first
time here at home in the regular season. The opening
night fans are all going to get the home opener
tip off t shirt.

Speaker 2 (01:43:41):
Why can't I say that properly? The home opener tip
off T shirt and rally towel.

Speaker 14 (01:43:48):
You know, it's like when you're at a Steller game,
the Myron Cope terrible tyle rob You go a whip
a Roger head like this, like.

Speaker 2 (01:43:54):
You're a freaking lemon helicopter. It's like the black and
gold you turn off. I have a terrible towel somewhere.

Speaker 7 (01:44:02):
I think it's drying dishes in my kitchen, but Myron
Cope's terrible towel.

Speaker 2 (01:44:07):
I have one from many, many years ago.

Speaker 7 (01:44:11):
If you listen to us on iHeartRadio on the as,

Speaker 2 (01:44:39):
You can always leave us messages.

Speaker 10 (01:44:41):
Hey, Alan, Rob, you were talking yesterday on the podcast
about holding the door open and things like that, and
then immediately took me to I think you should leave
with the Calico Cutpants dot Com episode when he gets
you ready to leave the office on multiple occasions, he

(01:45:02):
yells across the office, pull that door, pull that door,
and then think he walked slowly as they hold the door.

Speaker 2 (01:45:09):
Let me play did you watch I Think You Should Leave?

Speaker 7 (01:45:11):
No, the Tim Robinson show over there on Tim Robinson
was a guy who got like one season I think
on SNL. He's the guy that did that bit with
Sue Decus where they're doing lyrics to round Ball Rock.
He's like basketball, he's playing John Tesh's brother.

Speaker 2 (01:45:26):
Yeah.

Speaker 7 (01:45:26):
Well, anyway, Tim Robinson was a bit. He was ahead
of the curve as far as SNL goes. So then
he did a show called Detroiter's which is one of
my favorite sitcoms of all time, and they only got
a couple seasons out of that over on Comedy Central.
But he really blew up with I Think you Should
Leave over there at Netflix, and they did a bit
called Calico cut Pants where it looks like you've pete

(01:45:49):
on yourself but they're made that way. But anyway, we
were talking about holding the Door yesterday, and his point
is the scene where Tim Robinson would see somebody at
the end of the hall and scream at them to
hold the door, and then he would just saunter all
the way down the hallway.

Speaker 2 (01:46:03):
To them, I hold that door, hold that door.

Speaker 11 (01:46:06):
Ah that door.

Speaker 2 (01:46:11):
Down the end of a long hallway. Again, it's a
visual gag.

Speaker 7 (01:46:14):
But it's him just sauntering down the hall hold that door,
screaming at them, and then this person holds the door
for them the whole way, and maybe I'm gonna try
that because we've got this long hallway here. And that's
how it came up yesterday was how long do you
how far away does the person have to be before
you hold the door for them?

Speaker 2 (01:46:36):
And everybody had their thoughts on that.

Speaker 7 (01:46:38):
I was surprised yesterday and I'm still surprised at the
one Rehearson who texted and took it as a personal front.
When someone holds the door for them, my hands work,
I can open my own door. I was like, wow,
that is a hot take.

Speaker 13 (01:46:53):
Now.

Speaker 7 (01:46:54):
I tested that this morning here at work. When I
was coming in this morning about eight third somebody was
a few paces behind me down that long hallway. And
your you said yesterday that your solution to this is
that you don't look, eyes forward, key card, open the door,

(01:47:15):
you go in. You don't even you remove that variable
from the process. You don't know if anybody's there because
you don't look. I took a different tech. What I
did was there was somebody just a few paces behind me, circumstance,
I would have normally held the door for them. I
slammed the door shut in their face and.

Speaker 14 (01:47:37):
Then stood on the inside rob and held the door
with my foot, yes.

Speaker 8 (01:47:42):
So that they couldn't get it open. So their key
cards clicking and clicking and clicking, and they don't know
what the.

Speaker 2 (01:47:47):
Hell's going on? What the hell is wrong with this door?
And I'm putting my full weight against Boy, were they
cross with me when they got in?

Speaker 8 (01:47:59):
And then when they get to the other door, you
go into the exact same thing on those doors. Yeah,
you ain't getting into today, pal, not in my house.
And they're just a colleague.

Speaker 7 (01:48:09):
They work here, they deserve we only have two points
of egress at this place, and so they deserve to
be in here as well. But there's never anybody here
on a Friday, and so I was trying to keep
the numbers low, trying to keep the numbers low here
on a Friday, eh Alan, During your Tim Disney chat,

(01:48:38):
I passed five of his billboards on for eighty and
seventy seven. Yes, that's called market saturation. Yes that's what
you're looking for. Uh okay, listen, where was I going
with that? I don't remember. I'm just saying that, oh,

(01:48:59):
because that person someone was talking about. I think you
should leave. Tim Robinson, by the way, if you're a
fan of his. He did a movie with Paul Rudd
a few months back called Friendship. I saw it super high,
so I guess I gotta watch it again because I
don't remember if it was good. I know it was short,
but he has got that hole. I think you should leave.
Then got him a new show with HBO which is
starting this weekend called The Chair Company, and it sounds

(01:49:20):
positively demented, so I can't wait for it. He has
a very specific kind of humor that's not for everybody.
It's a lot of screaming and you know, which I
normally don't care for. But he's got me hook line
and sinker, so I'll watch it. A big fan of
Tim Robinson.

Speaker 2 (01:49:38):
Melanie wants to rub your face in missing the ice
Cube Show.

Speaker 8 (01:49:41):
Rob okay, Melanie, Hey there, this is Melanie.

Speaker 19 (01:49:45):
I was at the ice Cube Show and it was amazing,
a little bit of an older crowd, high on Henny
and Weed.

Speaker 2 (01:49:52):
Super chill.

Speaker 19 (01:49:54):
Ice Cube did a little music history, starting all the
way from NWA hitting songs off of.

Speaker 2 (01:49:59):
Every album, a little bit of some hidden gems. It
was amazing.

Speaker 19 (01:50:03):
Brought out Scarface and DUBC did some West Side Connection.

Speaker 2 (01:50:08):
Just an absolute blast.

Speaker 7 (01:50:09):
Oh, Melanie had a great time at ICEQ. There you
go an older crowd. Yeah, you think I saw the
people who were downtown. They look older than me. I
can't be upset with that. She didn't rub my face.
She was telling me how great it was and I
had this a great show.

Speaker 2 (01:50:28):
Thank you.

Speaker 8 (01:50:28):
Melanie had fun. I love ice Cube so much. Yeah,
I think he may be my favorite in NWA. And
you think of the names that came out of that, right,
I think he may be my favorite him an easy.

Speaker 2 (01:50:45):
Last night on Jeopardy, there was a pop culture question
about I don't even remember what the category was. The
answer was ghost Face Killer. It was it was about
ghost Face Killer.

Speaker 7 (01:50:58):
And as they're doing it, I'm like like, oh, when
they cut back to those three nerds no way at
the podiums and the one guy beeps in, he goes NWA, No,
I'm sorry, that's not right, you big dummy. Yeah, and
I'm screaming Wu tang at the TV. Wouldn't you know
if they can't hear me?

Speaker 2 (01:51:19):
And uh, what are you gonna do? Who is ghost Face?
Who is ghost Fast? I get so angry with ng Is.

Speaker 8 (01:51:27):
I'm like, these are the only things I know, the
pop culture questions, the music questions, Like if there was
a jeopardy of just that, I would be fine.

Speaker 2 (01:51:35):
This is the other stuff. Man, I suck, but I
do try well.

Speaker 7 (01:51:38):
It is funny the people, the people who can, you know,
clean out a category on the Ottoman Empire, but they
throw them you know, something from the past twenty years
and like.

Speaker 2 (01:51:48):
And listen, I get it. Not everybody you know knows
hip hop.

Speaker 8 (01:51:51):
I mean, I'm just waiting for the day that like
they're like, okay, in our final jeopardy category rap lyrics,
you know, are contestants linto.

Speaker 2 (01:52:03):
Their wagers and we'll be right back. I would I
would bet the farm and what did you wager?

Speaker 5 (01:52:10):
Oh?

Speaker 2 (01:52:10):
All event and you got it completely wrong? Not me, man.
If it's rap lyrics, I'm wu yeah. But the people
that they had up there, you know, wow nineties rap lyrics,
you know, not run DMC is thinking about their sneakers.
Oh I could get those. I could do five five Freddy.

Speaker 8 (01:52:27):
Lose me there, I'll I could probably do some Grand
Master Flash BDP. For me, it started getting really big
around like the NWA time. That's really when I started
taking note to Wow, that's pretty damn cool and why
I've never had any issues when those bands get into
the rock and Roll Hall of Fame before some other
rock bands, because those dudes are rock stars. So you

(01:52:50):
go with Cube out of NWA, I think, so, I
mean to listen, I love Doctor Dre. The you know,
nothing would sound the same if it wasn't for Dre's
beats and stuff.

Speaker 2 (01:52:57):
Oh, I'm sorry, Am I the only guy repping DJ? Yella?
I'm sorry? Yep?

Speaker 8 (01:53:01):
Maybe Okay, you aren't well, then I guess I'll stand
alone on this mountain.

Speaker 2 (01:53:06):
You're not listen. No, there is no bad answer uh
to n w A.

Speaker 8 (01:53:10):
But I'm just going based on there's like the individual
sounds of each member. I love the way I love
cubes flow and I have always loved Easy mc ren
is incredible. Like, I don't know, I will just go
with Cube, I think.

Speaker 2 (01:53:27):
Fine, No, Professor X no, Yella, fine, I'll rip those guys.
Stay away from Arabian Prince too.

Speaker 8 (01:53:35):
I'm just gonna stick with same guy Rob who Professor

Speaker 2 (01:53:41):
Show on one n call The Allen Cox Show. Where's

Speaker 6 (01:53:51):
Two one six, five seven eight one double oh seven

Speaker 7 (01:54:26):
I heard from Sebastian and I'll play the Viagra Boys
coming back from break occasionally. Sebastian is one of our
bureau cheese there in Salt Lake City and crediting me
with turning him and his wife onto the Viagra Boys.

Speaker 2 (01:54:42):
They're gonna go see them there in SLC. I love
Salt Lake City.

Speaker 7 (01:54:45):
I haven't been out there in a long long time,
and sometimes it gets a bad rap for a variety
of things. But Salt Lake City is a beautiful part
of the country, and uh, seeing the Viagra Boys there
couldn't be better. Alan, we went to go see zz
Top last night at Northfield Park.

Speaker 8 (01:55:04):
God damn it, that was last night. You didn't go
to zz Top, did you know? I just but I
just saw basically zz Top last the beginning of this.

Speaker 2 (01:55:14):
Billy Gibbons m and I mean it's I can't keep track.

Speaker 8 (01:55:20):
I think Frank Beard's back with them, though, isn't heally
the one guy that doesn't have the beard.

Speaker 7 (01:55:25):
Yeah, a lot of other people, bureau chiefs and such
checking in on the iHeartRadio app.

Speaker 2 (01:55:31):
I'm gonna go through some of these messages, Rob, please okay?

Speaker 4 (01:55:35):
Anyways up guys, Hey, why are half of the commercials
any more of these days? Boner pills?

Speaker 2 (01:55:41):
What's with all these young.

Speaker 4 (01:55:43):
Dudes that can't get boners? I don't understand. Eat better
and get some exercise, you lazy, lazy bono faster.

Speaker 2 (01:55:53):
Why can't the young guys get the boners anymore? Rob?
What's happening? Maybe they can get them, maybe they can't
keep You never know, right, we have a doctor Bergland
in here. We talk about young guys who can't get
it out. That's right. Can't keep it up too, you know,
you never know what the actual problem is. You know
how to take the reservation, you just don't know how
to hold the reservation. And really the holding of the

(01:56:17):
reservation is the most important part. Anybody can take a reservation.
You know how to keep a boner, get a boner.
You just can't keep a boner.

Speaker 7 (01:56:27):
But young guys, I mean, everybody's kind of got their
pop psychology reasons. They're anecdotal reasons, but a lot of
the To his point, there's a lot more of that
kind of advertising geared toward younger guys. It used to
be the domain of older guys, right, But older guys
now they've got viagran things like that, so I guess

(01:56:48):
they figure, well, we've tapped out the elderly market. After
this latest wave of STDs going through convalescent homes, These
poor old women who thought it was all done for them,
if you'll pardon the pun, they thought it was all
behind them, and now there's just old men chasing them
with diamond hard rods.

Speaker 2 (01:57:08):
Yep, better living through chemistry.

Speaker 7 (01:57:11):
But yeah, I don't you know, some people think that
it's the proliferation of porn, easy access to porn, where
young guys get desensitized and now nothing can you know.

Speaker 2 (01:57:22):
I think there's some of that.

Speaker 8 (01:57:23):
I also think that we also live in a world
where medications, especially anti depressants, are amazingly overprescribed. Everybody's on
one right, and those things can kill boners.

Speaker 7 (01:57:34):
And that's a question, and that's always and they're kind
of part and parcel of that whole thing. But that's
always been the biggest irony is it's like you're not
depressed anymore. But you can't get it up. That would
be depressing. Then you got to take something else for it, right,
Or the guys that take the hair pills and they
can't get it up like you were. You were trying
to get hair to get laid, and yet now they can't.

(01:57:55):
No boner, Oh god, terrible. I feel for the those people.
Boner pills for young guys. Well, anyway, there's some more messages.

Speaker 11 (01:58:12):
Allen, baby, I don't this. I don't know why this
made me so mad. There's no way in hell that
that's true that mangoes are the.

Speaker 14 (01:58:22):
Most people are so mad about the mango. There's no
way that mangoes and the number one.

Speaker 2 (01:58:28):
Fruit in the United States. They don't kill the messenger.

Speaker 14 (01:58:33):
This.

Speaker 5 (01:58:33):
I don't know why this made me so mad.

Speaker 11 (01:58:35):
There's no way in hell that that's true that mangoes
are the most enjoyed. I don't know there's a big
mango or something, dude, or a whole bunch of weirdos
who took the survey. I eat a banana every goddamn day,
and I don't know a person that eats a mango
on the regular.

Speaker 2 (01:58:56):
Come on, man, I don't know why I think oh,
I made him really mad. Yeah.

Speaker 8 (01:59:04):
When I said banana, everybody listening said bingo and you
said no, And I was like, well, it's gotta be apples, bingo, Nope, mango, and.

Speaker 2 (01:59:16):
I guarantee when I said grapes. But like there finally
he got it.

Speaker 8 (01:59:19):
M m mango, mango, Rob, you can't have it a mango?
Is it dragon fruit?

Speaker 2 (01:59:28):
Yes? Is it a Durian fruits? Stinky stinky fruit? I
think it's case. Is it a kiwi? Like I have
a kiwi every night before I go to bed, you know,
every night. Yeah, they're good for you, and uh, but.

Speaker 7 (01:59:45):
I couldn't tell you normally if there's a mango in
my home. And I hate to say there is one
with regularity because I'm always like cutting up mango for
my kid. They're delicious, they're great. What they are labor intensive, Right,
there's a stone in him. You gotta peel him. You
got a banana. And sure people can make fun of

(02:00:05):
me for how I eat my bananas. I peel them
fully and eat them naked. That's only because I am
also naked. When I'm at home eating a banana, I
peel off my clothes and then I peel off the
bananas clothes.

Speaker 2 (02:00:19):
What's good for the ghost?

Speaker 6 (02:00:21):
Rob?

Speaker 2 (02:00:22):
Good for the gander?

Speaker 21 (02:00:25):
Hey, guys, is Jerry from bruns Tucky. Bad news. My
grandma has cancer and she might not make it long.
But she's the only thing she's really worried about is
that she lost all of her hair. Wait, I have
an idea. Can you borrow your old lady wig?

Speaker 6 (02:00:42):
There?

Speaker 8 (02:00:43):
Alan, you son a bit, you, son of the motherless whore.
He got you right out of the chute, making you
feel bad for granny because.

Speaker 2 (02:00:51):
I have long hair. But he just led me down

matter with my hair?

Speaker 14 (02:01:02):
Rob?

Speaker 2 (02:01:04):
Jealousy? So do I look like an old woman? No?

Speaker 7 (02:01:07):
Now, granted I wasn't kidding when I said before that.
Somebody came up behind me and said, miss.

Speaker 2 (02:01:13):
Did they really?

Speaker 11 (02:01:14):
Oh?

Speaker 2 (02:01:14):
I know what it was.

Speaker 1 (02:01:15):
So.

Speaker 7 (02:01:16):
I was in Michigan over the weekend because my daughter
was performing at Michigan State. So across the street from
my hotel is a seven to eleven and I go
in there and the guy behind the counter is a
couple of people in line. It was game day or something,
so there's you know, kids running around, and I had
a couple of items that might get a bottle of
water and some snacks or something, and I had my

(02:01:38):
back to the guy working the counter, and I guess
I didn't realize that I was next up, so he
only saw me from the back and he goes, excuse me, miss,
miss ooops, you're next, And I turned around and it
was like he said, oh, I'm sorry, he's got a
job to do. He's just doing an assembly line there.
But he did call me miss, and he didn't correct himself.

Speaker 2 (02:01:58):
No, it's fine.

Speaker 7 (02:01:59):
I didn't register with me until because I'm not going
to answer to miss. I turned around.

Speaker 2 (02:02:05):
Maybe I should start. You should have looked at me,
go miss t.

Speaker 11 (02:02:13):
Oh.

Speaker 2 (02:02:13):
I wasn't gonna clutch my pearls. You know, I get it.
I'm walking her own long hair from me. Never I've
never been so insulted.

Speaker 14 (02:02:25):
How dare you not know from behind that long hair
is a dude going to hit you with my pace?

Speaker 8 (02:02:31):
It's a college town bro. Well, and you were wearing
a dress, which that well would have been the giveaway.
But I either that of the parasol. Yeah, you were
dressing had fully open end twirling rob because I like
I like to make an entrance.

Speaker 2 (02:02:47):
Yeah sorry, so.

Speaker 14 (02:02:50):
Yeah, okay, Well you know I'm at work and most
of the time I tuck my hair. I tuck it
behind my ears. That's fine, but you're gonna come at
me like that. What can you borrow my old lady
wig unless you mean my murkin.

Speaker 2 (02:03:07):
Bosh the Yeah?

Speaker 5 (02:03:13):

Man you had the man himself, Misney, you could have
got him on that Celsius thief.

Speaker 5 (02:03:41):

Speaker 9 (02:03:47):
You know what he would have done to whoever stealing
your celsia? Is hate the show Happy Friday, cotton Balls?

Speaker 7 (02:03:54):
I hate it when cotton balls is the boys reason right,
Tim Misney. By the way, I wouldn't presume on our friendship.
He was here as a pal. This guy doesn't even
advertise on the radio.

Speaker 5 (02:04:05):
Do you know that?

Speaker 7 (02:04:06):
He probably doesn't need to because of billboards. But Tim
Disney is not a guy. He doesn't advertise here. I'd
love to have Misney on the air.

Speaker 2 (02:04:13):
I'd be awesome. I'll do his freaking commercials. He doesn't
need me for that. He's an icon, he doesn't need that. Okay.

Speaker 7 (02:04:21):
We ran into each other at a wedding, wanted to
catch up, and I told him, I go, look, it
doesn't happen on the air.

Speaker 2 (02:04:28):
It doesn't mean my life is in here? What are
you talking about? So, but I would not ask him
to track down the Celsius thief. I would.

Speaker 7 (02:04:39):
Plus, the timing's terrible because today Rob, it marks two
days where I've gone to get my Celsius and it's there.

Speaker 2 (02:04:49):
It's so funny.

Speaker 8 (02:04:50):
I've had like ten two days. I say ten people.
We don't have ten people that work here. I've had
like four people come up and ask me do you
really know who it is?

Speaker 2 (02:04:58):
Do you think it was? It's not me? You know
it's not me, right, And I'm like, oh no, did
the person that you suspect, tell you it's.

Speaker 8 (02:05:04):
Not them, not yet, ah, not yet, but he well
he I gave away he no, it's I mean again,
we have one person that works here and it wasn't
Faith right.

Speaker 7 (02:05:18):
Oh, so people are hitting you up to remove themselves
from the suspect list.

Speaker 2 (02:05:23):
Oh yeah yeah, And just to be do you really
think do you think you know who?

Speaker 1 (02:05:28):
Like?

Speaker 14 (02:05:28):
Is it?

Speaker 2 (02:05:29):
Is it someone you think that sits near me? Do
you think maybe?

Speaker 8 (02:05:32):
Yeah?

Speaker 7 (02:05:33):
Well, this is great promotion for Rob's in my new podcast,
only beverages in the building.

Speaker 2 (02:05:38):
Yes, hope.

Speaker 7 (02:05:39):
You can tune in only thefts, only thefts in the building.
So they've all come up to you to try to
remove themselves.

Speaker 2 (02:05:49):
Yep. And and to see where I'm kinda where I'm steering.

Speaker 8 (02:05:53):
And again I won't say I say a lot by
saying very little, do my research, little little crumbs there.

Speaker 2 (02:06:06):
Hey, what's up guys? Alan? We all love you, of course,
but please please don't ask the question do I look
like an old lady? Enjoy the answer?

Speaker 6 (02:06:17):
You know what?

Speaker 2 (02:06:17):
And once again I love you.

Speaker 14 (02:06:19):
Just remember that, say well, I don't look like an
old lady just because I have longer hair.

Speaker 2 (02:06:25):
You know what, Old ladies have short hair. Rob, they
have short hair, they have the mom cuts. You know what,
this is just going to make me redouble my ass.
I was gonna say, now it's gonna be down to
your ass.

Speaker 7 (02:06:36):
Now I have a haircut scheduled for Monday morning. Now
I'm not chopping it all off. I'm having her clean
it up a little bit, right, get some of the
ends still gonna be long. However, now I'm rethinking the
whole thing. I'm gonna get.

Speaker 2 (02:06:52):
Goddamn extensions put in. How do you like that?

Speaker 7 (02:06:57):
You're gonna get behind me in line, and you're gonna think, guy,
I'm the dude from the Walking Dead. That's a terrible reference,
the guy who was the black guy that had the
white dreads.

Speaker 2 (02:07:09):
Unlike that. I bailed on the Walking Yeah, me too, man,
I don't even know who you're talking about. Ezekiel or
what was the guy's name. Some of you Walking Dead
nerds will tell me he was in the comic book.
I think who was no? Okay, yeah, King Ezekiel. I
was right, King Ezekiel. Yeah, I gave up on that.
I think it was three seasons. I made it. I

(02:07:30):
made it longer than that, but I did not make
the full run of actual it was.

Speaker 8 (02:07:34):
It was when they had taken over that little town
like white picket Fences area.

Speaker 2 (02:07:40):
That was when I when I was like, I'm done
with this. I'm we're getting back into the last of us.
I'm on season two of them. Kind of dig that.

Speaker 8 (02:07:49):
I like it more because it's more like human interest,
yeah stuff than it is like dumb zombies.

Speaker 16 (02:07:58):
All right, I.

Speaker 2 (02:07:59):
Don't know who, shut up? I don't need this either.

Speaker 7 (02:08:08):
I like what you call them boneless best You know
what you call them, the young guys that can't get boners,
you lazy, boneless, boneless basket bonerless boner Maybe didn't call
them bonerless, lazy bonerless bastards.

Speaker 4 (02:08:21):
Ay, what's up, guys? Man, eat better and get some exercise,
you lazy, lazy boner less, faster.

Speaker 2 (02:08:30):
Bonerless basters at the Agora this weekend. That's what they
need more?

Speaker 8 (02:08:35):
Uh ridicule about I say, boner, who needs your support
more than them?

Speaker 2 (02:08:42):
Literally? It won't stay up by itself. Allan.

Speaker 3 (02:08:46):
This is richdown Jacksonville, Florida. I don't know where these
people get all standing. The mango is the best fruit
in America, clearly, they've never heard of the Banana Wars spot.

Speaker 2 (02:08:53):
Between eighteen ninety eight and nineteen.

Speaker 3 (02:08:54):
Thirty four, the American society was colassing and if we
couldn't get our reasonably price bananas, there was literally hell
and ward pay.

Speaker 2 (02:09:03):
Anyways, it's the show. H never heard of the uh
no bing bing ring, ring, ring ring ring, the Banana
War wow of what did he say?

Speaker 7 (02:09:14):
Eighteen forty five to nine, eighteen ninety eight to nineteen
thirty four?

Speaker 2 (02:09:19):
All Right, I believe you Rich is a smart guy.
The Allen Cox Show on.

Speaker 15 (02:09:25):
One hundred points of MS Allen Cox Show WMMS.

Speaker 16 (02:09:57):
Would you tell me.

Speaker 2 (02:10:02):
Remember this one?

Speaker 14 (02:10:03):
Sure do?

Speaker 7 (02:10:04):
This would have been nineteen eighty one. Moody Blues so
called The Voice. Moody Blues were never like a band
that bound. They weren't like a top ten or anything,
but they had hits all along the way, and they were.

Speaker 2 (02:10:16):
Good when you heard him. You're never mad when you
heard the Moody Blues.

Speaker 7 (02:10:19):
Knights in White Sad was a huge hit for them,
or the other big Moody Blue Oh Tuesday off t Noon.
But I remember The Voice was the first one that
I remember. I was probably ten when it came out.
I thought it was more into the eighties, but it
came out in nineteen eighty one. Anyway, John Lodge died.

(02:10:40):
He was a front man for the Moody Blues for
fifty years. These guys are in the Rock and Roll
Hall of Fame, and I guess he died very suddenly.
He was their bass player and I guess co vocalist.
But he sang a lot of the songs, right him
and Justin Hayward.

Speaker 2 (02:10:54):
Oh yeah. And his family's like he died very suddenly.
I don't know what that means, because on the one hand,
they go, well, he died suddenly and unexpectedly, But then
they said he peacefully slipped away surrounded by his loved ones.

Speaker 8 (02:11:10):
Well maybe it was just like a very quick illness.
It's what it sounded like to me. Like it sounded
like he wasn't like he wasn't sick long is what
how I read that?

Speaker 12 (02:11:18):
Huh?

Speaker 2 (02:11:19):
So he like just got sick and then died. I
don't know, And that's what I'm guessing we're going to
find out now. He wasn't an original memory. They've been
around for two years. When he joined the Moody Blues.
A couple of guys had left, and then he and
Justin Hayward who was the other? Is this John Lodge
singing or Justin Hayward? They sang the voice, Oh it

(02:11:41):
is Justin Hayward. Okay, anyway, John Lodge, I mean he
would sing some of their songs and well he was
on definitely, Yeah, he was. I mean, if you listen
to that song, he's harmonizing. That's that's He's in this
song a lot.

Speaker 8 (02:11:54):
I think just a singer in a rock and roll
band is probably my favorite Moody Blue song.

Speaker 2 (02:11:59):
That's that is them, isn't it. Oh yeah, that's just
the thing. I ran a rock and roll band, Moody
Blues and that song that this album.

Speaker 8 (02:12:10):
I think that was when they kind of went with
like the synthesizers and stuff and a little more poppy.
I Know You're out there Somewhere was on that. Yes,
in your Wildest Dreams, Yep, Ride my Seesaw was them, Yep.
I'm just a singer in a rock and roll basoph.

Speaker 22 (02:12:27):
On.

Speaker 2 (02:12:28):
It's a boomer full.

Speaker 20 (02:12:29):
Of boo blue boom boom boo boo boo boo boo
boo boo boom.

Speaker 7 (02:12:34):
Now I think they broke up in two thousand and three,
so they haven't been a band for a while. They
got inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame
in twenty eighteen.

Speaker 2 (02:12:43):
That was here. I remember that year.

Speaker 7 (02:12:44):
That was the year that Howard Stern was here to
induct bon Jovi and Wilson of Heart inducted the Moody
Blues and it was I remember that year was kind
of I think it was the last year at Public Hall.
Maybe that class of twenty eighteen was bon Jovi, Moody Blues.

(02:13:08):
I think that was the year that Dire Straits got in,
but like, nobody wanted to be there. It was a
real weird year, and so the Moody Blues just got
up there and played. But I just remember that twenty
eighteen year was kind of, you know, people just wanted
to sit at their table and get drunk.

Speaker 2 (02:13:27):
They didn't necessarily want to get up there and play.

Speaker 7 (02:13:30):
I think he's primary on this, Okay, Yeah, that was
a year that Nina Simone got in the Moody Blues,
Dire Straits, the Cars, bon Jovi.

Speaker 2 (02:13:48):
And this performed. Actually it sounds like both of them,
doesn't it.

Speaker 7 (02:13:53):
Anyway, The Moody Blues were a very specific kind of sound,
and they weren't for everyone, but they were good enough.

Speaker 2 (02:13:58):
Anytime I heard him, I wasn't mad.

Speaker 8 (02:14:01):
My dad one of his absolute favorite bands, oddly because
he was like huge into you know, Zep and Aerosmith
and the Doors and but yeah, huge moody blues guy.

Speaker 2 (02:14:11):
And John Lodge was arrow straight boy.

Speaker 7 (02:14:14):
He was an evangelical Christian, saying that it helped him
to avoid the excesses of rock and roll.

Speaker 8 (02:14:20):
Well, that and doing songs like Knight in White Satin Earth,
you know, not necessarily panty droppers.

Speaker 7 (02:14:27):
It's a little too close to Knights in White Satan
for my taste. So John Lodge, at the age of
eighty two is gone. Is Justin Hayward still alive. I
don't know that a lot of those guys. He might
have outlived those guys. Yeah, Justin Hayward is still alive.
He's seventy eight.

Speaker 2 (02:14:48):
But they did play.

Speaker 7 (02:14:49):
I seem to recall them playing at the Rock and
Roll Hall of Fame induction there in twenty eighteen.

Speaker 2 (02:14:54):
I was sitting here trying to pin a song and
decided that this afternoon, whilst having tea. It was Tuesday,
and I said to myself, well, I'm having tea on
a Tuesday afternoon and wrote this song and the rest
is his story.

Speaker 7 (02:15:11):
I originally called the number teesday afternoon, but it just
didn't sound right.

Speaker 2 (02:15:19):
The other people in the band said, are you stupid?
And I said, perhaps I am, but I feel like
afternoon is the right term here, because I was what
the hell was I talking about.

Speaker 7 (02:15:32):
I normally have coffee in the morning, and so I
initially called the song Coffee in the Morning, but it
just didn't flow. Ray Thomas who played that flute solo
on Nights of White Satin and who could forget that
the eight minute version of it.

Speaker 2 (02:15:48):
Yeah, he was one of the founding members.

Speaker 7 (02:15:50):
Ray Thomas, he died a few months before they got
into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, so he
took the easy way out.

Speaker 2 (02:15:56):
I don't know if the movie.

Speaker 14 (02:15:58):
You know, because there's all these who were like, roug well,
holee thing sucks, we don't care, and then they get
nominated or inducted and they're like, hey, what's up, like
Kiss and all these band Steve Miller.

Speaker 2 (02:16:07):
Well it was even Rush. They shut up about the
Rock and Roll Hall of Fame.

Speaker 7 (02:16:10):
If you don't when they when they finally come around
to you, politely decline and some man's do They're still
gonna induct you, so you might as well show up.
I mean, obviously I understand where they're coming from, but
it's like, why all this posturing about how they suck
because it just turns out to be sour grapes.

Speaker 2 (02:16:27):
Oh, we were mad they didn't get around to us. Okay,
I get it, but they're gonna get around to you.

Speaker 8 (02:16:32):
They showed that clip before they came out for that
Q and A, and it was Geeddy talking about it
and he's like, yeah, it's no big deal. It's no
big deal until they call you and say it is. Yeah, right,
it is a pretty freaking big deal. Oh, I mean
it can be.

Speaker 7 (02:16:47):
To them, it was, yeah, there are plenty of people
who are you know, Dolly Parton right, She's like she
politely declined her induction, and they're like, look, we're gonna
induct you anyway into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame,
so you can either show up or you won't be
there rock Hall. After they drop their Orisian original list
of people who are going to be inducted, the next

(02:17:08):
wave of things that are interesting is when they talk
about who's going to be there as a special guest
or who will be there to induct the inductees. And
they've announced a handful of people who are going to
be part of this year's class. Olivia Rodrigo is going
to be there, Elton John is going to show up
to be part of this year's Rock Hall Induction ceremony.

(02:17:28):
It's next month?

Speaker 6 (02:17:30):
Is it in La?

Speaker 12 (02:17:30):
This year?

Speaker 2 (02:17:31):
In New York? I know it's not here. That I
don't know.

Speaker 7 (02:17:33):
Okay, if it's not here, I really don't pay attention.
Same oh La The Peacock Theater November, the eighth, first
time they've been there since twenty twenty two. It'll be
at five pm Eastern on Disney Plus, Bad Company, Chubby Checker,
Joe Cocker, Cindy Lauper, Outcast, Soundgarden and the White Stripes.

(02:17:58):
I wonder who will front sound Garden. Salton Peppa and
Warren z Von are also being inducted for the Musical
Influence Award. A handful of other people in other categories,
but Doja Cat, Elton John, Olivia Rodrigo will be there,
Beck will be there, Brandy Carlyle, David Letterman. He is
going to induct Warren Zevon, Flee and Iggy Pop Killer

(02:18:23):
Mike Killer Mike. By the way, who's on that EFT
that I was talking about? That show The Lowdown with
Ethan Hawk. Killer Mike is like a sidekick in that show.

Speaker 2 (02:18:31):
Is great. I didn't know he was an actor. He
is in this show.

Speaker 8 (02:18:35):
Oh awesome. Yeah, I love that band. Missy Elliott will
be there, is she in? She's in the rock Hall?

Speaker 7 (02:18:41):
Yeahs last year or the year before, and of course
number one on Rolling Stones list of the two hundred
and fifty Greatest Songs of the twenty first century so far.
Mister get your freak on. Uh Sleepy Brown, that's what
I call my first dump of the day, right when

(02:19:04):
I get up at five point thirty and I walk
right down the hall to the loo.

Speaker 2 (02:19:09):
That's my Sleepy Brown.

Speaker 7 (02:19:11):
Taylor Momson, Teddy Swims and twenty one pilots will also
be part of this year's Rock Hall induction.

Speaker 2 (02:19:18):
That Teddy Swims, boy, he is legit. He sure is.

Speaker 7 (02:19:22):
That guy can sing his ass off. Of course that's
not his name, that's a stage name. His real name
is Theodore Swims. But he is very talented dude, Alan,
there are no original Moodies left. Hayward wasn't no. I
know he and John Lodge wentn't at the same time,

(02:19:43):
but I guess I didn't realize that there are no
original ones left. I guess Ray Thomas right, he died
before he was the last remaining one. I think, Alan,
I just drove past a homeless guy in Barberton who
looks exactly like Walton Goggins.

Speaker 2 (02:19:58):
Maybe it was Walton Goggins.

Speaker 7 (02:19:59):
I mean, are going really well for him. He's kind
of like the Kevin Hart, like Walton Goggins. He's been
a working actor for a long time, but he's very
much having his moment now and he's not saying no
to anything. He's doing Walmart commercials and he's doing everything
they're coming to him with. He's loving life and he
should be go all the way back to the Shield

(02:20:21):
with Walton Goggins when he had a lot less hair. Midweek,
we were talking about they were going to re release
on vinyl that McGruff the Crime Dog album from It
was a cassette from nineteen eighty six. The songs that
McGruff the Crime Dog put out to get kids on

(02:20:42):
the straight and narrow right and he goes way beyond
crime doesn't pay. I played you a couple eclipse Midweek,
a song called crack Cocaine.

Speaker 2 (02:20:52):
You know. Now Again, just to be clear, this is
con not pro.

Speaker 7 (02:20:57):
That would have been a flex boy if McGruff the
Crime Dog had been like pro Cracking cocaine sure as.

Speaker 8 (02:21:01):
Drug that many people, some even as young as you
are using. It's a form of cocaine called crack or rock.
Instead of being sorted through the nose like powdered cocaine,
crack is smoked.

Speaker 7 (02:21:13):
Yeah, so that's a little taste of what McGruff the
crime Dog. He was really giving these kids a lot
of information. You know, knowledge is power. But also the
flip side of that coin is I remember when the
DARE officer used to come to class. That was the
first time that I knew what the drugs looked like.
So they do inform you, but they also can really

(02:21:37):
spark a curiosity in you as well. But I couldn't
find the whole playlist, but thanks to Eric out there
in Penn Hills, he found it because aside from the
users are losers song and marijuana abuse.

Speaker 2 (02:21:53):
Can you abuse marijuana?

Speaker 6 (02:21:55):
Really.

Speaker 2 (02:21:55):
I mean, you can't get addicted to marijuana physically, of
course you can't.

Speaker 7 (02:21:58):
You can get psychologically ad And I don't think marijuana
is physically addictive. I think in the way that cocaine
and heroin can be. I don't know, no, no, I
don't think marijuana is physically addictive. So I guess you could,
you could make a case for marijuana abuse, but again,
I don't think you can get physically anyway. So he
does crack cocaine, does alcohol abuse, of course. But there

(02:22:20):
was a song on that cassette called sexual molestation and
I couldn't find that Eric and Penhills on it for me. Now,
I will preface that with a little clip from a
song he did called arson.

Speaker 2 (02:22:32):
Destructive and senseless crimes. Is arson?

Speaker 8 (02:22:36):
An arsonist is someone who sets fires on purpose, fires
that destroy millions of dollars in property each year. Worse
than that is the fact that many people die each
year in fire set by arsonists, and that's murder. Now
you may think that all arsonists are adults, but the
fact is the average arsonist is only seventeen years old.

Speaker 2 (02:22:57):
Yikes, how about that this is supposed to be for little.

Speaker 7 (02:23:00):
Nineteen eighty six. Right, I was fifteen years old, so
I wasn't hearing this. But this was four kids that
were like in middle school, in junior high. And he's
doing a real deep dive there. Doesn't Arson sound like
an old timey name, like a Civil War general or
like your grandfather might have been, right, might have had
that name Colonel Arson pe Lee?

Speaker 2 (02:23:24):
Yeah, yeah, all the way back the Civil wabbofs. Remember
the general from the Confederacy, Arson pee Lee. Some of
you may remember his brother, Roberts Roberts pee Lee, not

(02:23:46):
to be confused with Robert E.

Speaker 17 (02:23:48):
Lee.

Speaker 2 (02:23:48):
There weren't as many names back then, and so a
lot of people had variations of the same name, and
it could be very confusing. Not many people named Arson, however,
he was the first person to turn down someone else's
structure and the name was grown from there. Not that
many people are named Arson anymore for obvious reasons. Compounding

(02:24:10):
the problem was his cousin Arson Hitler. Oh boy, some
names are just another tough name to live down. Arson
Hitler anyway, Thank you to Eric and Pennhills. He found

(02:24:31):
a child molestation for me.

Speaker 8 (02:24:33):
Many crimes are never reported, even when somebody suffers because
of them. One of these crimes is child molestation. A
child molester is someone who touches You.

Speaker 7 (02:24:44):
Imagine the guy who has to talk about these deadly
serious subjects in this dumb dog voice, and he kind
of goes in and out of it. You know, it
is different when you see the voice coming out of
a guy in a dog costume, as opposed to just
hearing it, because he just sounds like a guy.

Speaker 8 (02:25:00):
Children in a way that makes them very uncomfortable, nervous,
and guilty. The molester wants to keep it a secret
because it is wrong. They may try to bribe children
to keep quiet, or even threaten them. Child molesters are
sick people and need to be helped. If you were
ever bothered by a child molester, let someone older that
you trust know about it right away, someone like your parents.

(02:25:24):
Child molesters need to be helped. What kind of mid
eighties woke anteeth of nonsense is this?

Speaker 2 (02:25:30):
Rob help?

Speaker 7 (02:25:31):
They need to be thrown into a burning home. Courtesy
of Arson Hitler. I'll help, Yeah, I'll help.

Speaker 2 (02:25:40):
Throw it to the fire. A similarly difficult name from
Arson Hitler was Child Molestation Smith, originally the first baseman
for the Cleveland Spiders child molestation. Smith would go on
to a multi state campaign taking it damage of young

(02:26:01):
kids child molestation fortunate. Yeah. Oh why did his parents
name him child molestation? It wasn't a crime yet. Back
then it was just extra love. Oh, it was considered
a hobby anyway, Thank you to Eric. They're in ten Hills,

(02:26:26):
I feel.

Speaker 11 (02:26:28):
Yeah.

Speaker 7 (02:26:29):
Oh, but Arson does sound like an old timey name,
you know what I mean? Like my dad's from the
Deep South. There are all kinds of weird ass names.
His given name was Claredel. Your dad's was, yeah, yeah,
Claredale is in. His middle name was my grand His
middle name was his mom's maiden name. So my dad's
name was Clariedale Kriggler Cox.

Speaker 2 (02:26:52):
Wow. So the tattoo I have of his signature on
my chest is cc Cox. That's how he signed his name.

Speaker 7 (02:26:57):
And I'm like, boy, I mean, everybody called him Craig,
but his given name was Clardale. I'm like boy, I'd
go by CEC Cox too. So where did Craig come from?

Speaker 2 (02:27:05):
I don't know.

Speaker 7 (02:27:05):
He always said somebody he got the name in college
or but I go, how would somebody come up with that?

Speaker 2 (02:27:11):
I don't know the movie Friday.

Speaker 8 (02:27:14):
Yes, no, Craig, it'll be different living out here, you uncle,
your cousins get you any kind of issue.

Speaker 2 (02:27:21):
No, Alan, you're thinking of Orson, No, I'm thinking of Arson.
Would be a lot.

Speaker 8 (02:27:26):
I mean, yeah, it's a lateral move, but yeah, Arson
Wells one of the most originally the name Orson meant
to burn down a building. He's been charged with Orson. See,
that's not as funny. He's America's first known orsonist.

Speaker 2 (02:27:46):
Stop that's just not good. Orson Bean, Orson Wells.

Speaker 7 (02:27:50):
I just saw Orson Bean show up in an old
episode of Two and a Half Men, which I unabashedly
laugh at. You know, there's a sheenas what's going on
right now with Charlie Sheen with his memoir and the
documentary over there, And they still show Two and a
half Men a lot on I don't know TV Land,

(02:28:11):
I think shows it. And I was I was in
my hotel room in Michigan over the weekend. I'm clicking
around before I'm heading over to my daughter's show, and
Two and.

Speaker 2 (02:28:20):
A half Men was on, and I'm laughing my ass off,
not out loud, rob, just in my head.

Speaker 7 (02:28:28):
Alan I liked McGruff the Crime Dog's Necrophilia song M
crack open a cold one.

Speaker 2 (02:28:35):
I get it. Oh it was Necrophilia Jones who first
came into the public view. All right, the Allen Carr
Show on one.

Speaker 11 (02:28:53):
Of our phone operators are standing by with their thumbs up.

Speaker 2 (02:28:59):
There assays waiting for you.

Speaker 6 (02:29:01):
A call, so cool, call the Alan Cox Show. Two
one six, five seven eight one double oh seven or
one three four eight one double oh seven.

Speaker 2 (02:29:38):
Fan of Horses on tour. Somebody tell me if fand
of Horses is on tour. I wanna go see these guys.
Maybe they're coming to the Globe Iron Wrath.

Speaker 7 (02:29:49):
I'm starting to miss more shows that I'm getting to recently,
and it's really sticking in my crawl. I didn't even
know I had a crawl, you do know, but it's
getting stuck. We missed ice Cube, I missed Stereo Lab.
I missed double Z Top. I think I'm pronouncing that correctly. No,
it's this is Top, Sleepy Top. You know, Sleepy Brown.

(02:30:15):
Sleepy Brown is going to be at the Rock and
Roll Hall of Fame inductions and Sleepy Top was just
at MGM Northfield Park Ellan you and Rob are talking
about those steak nuggets from Rby's.

Speaker 2 (02:30:29):
His Harby's an advertiser here. This person did not.

Speaker 7 (02:30:38):
This person did not have a let's say, positive experience
with the ball. Huh Annie, Who Yeah, Alan, My buddy's
dad was a DARE officer and he had that display
case of drugs.

Speaker 2 (02:30:56):
We used to look at that thing like it was
a candy store. That's Luke and Lakewood. Yeah, that's what.
On the one hand, you know, you understand where that's
coming from. I don't.

Speaker 7 (02:31:04):
I think that many many years later, and millions of
dollars spent, they determined in hindsight that Dare did absolute
dick for getting kids to just say no. But it
was fun while it lasted. You know, you got a
whole generation out of it. I was gonna say, you
get a whole generation of hipster is wearing the T shirt.

Speaker 8 (02:31:26):
I mean, I think it taught I definitely taught me
some stuff, you know what I mean. It taught me
about all of those drugs, which is really cool. Yes,
And then I was like, well, I want to stay
away from the ones that are going to make me
live on the street. So I never did, like, I
never got into the crack. Stayed away from heroin.

Speaker 2 (02:31:45):
But they're all fun.

Speaker 8 (02:31:47):
I just I ate fistfuls of mushrooms. See there was
no mushroom song, so maybe that's what happened. I was like, yeah,
I didn't hear a song about it.

Speaker 2 (02:31:54):
Some fine. I used to really love pot and then
pot got too strong. Now I stay away from that. Well.

Speaker 7 (02:32:02):
DARE was founded by a guy early eighties. DARE was
founded out of LA. It was founded by a chief
named Darryl Gates. Remember the name Darryl Gates. He was
the guy who went up resigning over Rodney King. So
it started with Darryl Gates there in LA and then
they tried to do it overseas I think later on.

(02:32:24):
And then you know, they did studies on was this
effective and what it and it was it was results
may vary. What they did find. Indiana University, my wife
alma mater, they had done a study and they found
that the people who completed the DARE program had significantly

(02:32:46):
higher rates of hallucinogenic drug use.

Speaker 2 (02:32:50):
So that's what I mean. They were like and these, oh,
and what do those do?

Speaker 7 (02:32:54):
These will blow you out of your gourd, and they're
like hmm, Okay, take notes, but I think dar's long gone.

Speaker 2 (02:33:04):
Right. It's not a thing in school anymore, or is it.
I don't know. I don't think it's still a thing.
I I don't know if it is. You don't really
hear about it anymore. But it might still be a thing.
I don't know. None of my older kids, when they
were younger, were exposed to the DARE program.

Speaker 6 (02:33:21):
And you know.

Speaker 8 (02:33:26):
The zoon tite excuse me, sorry about that. Yesterday it
was the burp in the last segment. Today it's the
big hiccuppy kind of thing. Uh huh going on with me? Okay,
I don't know. I mean, I'm mocked in my own
home for not being able to belch. So it's my
nine year old boy. She just lets fly, yeah, and

(02:33:48):
I'm like, yeah, I can't why, I don't know.

Speaker 2 (02:33:52):
What do you mean why? I don't know? I must
suck you well. No, I I was kind of chastising
her from the perspective of man, please just yeah, that's
what I said. I go, it sound like I never burb.

Speaker 7 (02:34:04):
I'm like, I can't keep my mouth shut, or you know,
I'm I'm I suppressed them or whatever.

Speaker 8 (02:34:10):
And then they come out as farts like that. I
still cannot believe. But the proof of what goes in
must come out, I guess.

Speaker 6 (02:34:20):
Yeah.

Speaker 8 (02:34:21):
If it ain't coming out of the basement, it's coming
out the attic. I still I cannot believe. You got
through that entire challenge without belching and then huge farts
in my kitchen. That's like, that's I don't know if
I've ever farted that long. It's impressive.

Speaker 2 (02:34:43):
It is. Yeah, I want to argue with you. Yeah,
I know it is. I made it. Yeah, sure did well,
my body made it. I was just the conveyance rob.

Speaker 14 (02:34:56):
I'm merely the vessel. I'm like that guy from sleep Token.
He's just a vessel for the music that comes through them.
Mm hmm, Hey, whiz bang, I got news for you.
You do look like an old lady. All right, listen
you son of a whoor wiz bang. Yeah, he likes

(02:35:19):
to call me wisbang. Hey wiz bang.

Speaker 2 (02:35:22):
Right. I don't hate it, but listen, Uh, how dare you?
Oh dare you? How how dare dare you?

Speaker 6 (02:35:32):
You?

Speaker 2 (02:35:32):
Son of a bitch?

Speaker 7 (02:35:36):
So yeah, thanks for the McGruff. You know, when Tim
Disney was here, he was kind enough because he has
chickens or something. He was kind enough to drop off
Misney eggs. He brought me a half dozen, and the
sticker says he makes them lay.

Speaker 2 (02:35:53):
I love that so much. It's great. And listen, uh,
fresh eggs are great. It was completely unknown to him.

Speaker 7 (02:36:00):
Who's completely coincidental that today is National Egg Day.

Speaker 2 (02:36:07):
And I like eggs. I have them just about every morning. Now.

Speaker 7 (02:36:10):
I grew up with somebody who hated eggs because my mom,
in her infinite wisdom, was trying to keep us healthy
and was demanded that we eat eggs on a regular basis.
Because of that, I did not like them. It's probably psychosomatic.
As an adult, I understand their value and I love them.
But on World Egg do people still do breakfast for dinner?

Speaker 2 (02:36:33):
Is that still a thing we do sometimes?

Speaker 19 (02:36:35):
Jam?

Speaker 2 (02:36:35):
Maybe I'll go home and fry these up tonight. I'll
tell you what. The fresher, the better man. I would
eat those right away. I'll get some salsa and I'll
scramble these puppies up.

Speaker 8 (02:36:47):
No, don't put any sauce on those. Why oh, because
you're gonna want to eat that egg. You're gonna want
to taste that egg. Then the freshest of the fresh.

Speaker 2 (02:36:54):
Oh God for you. Oh no, no, I'm not gonna
smother it.

Speaker 7 (02:36:57):
Well, Normally when I eat eggs, I eat them salsa,
maybe some cilantro.

Speaker 8 (02:37:05):
I know you're not a cilantro guy. I will put
cilantro on anything. Cilantro my goddamn pancakes if I were
eating pancakes. But people still do breakfast for dinner.

Speaker 2 (02:37:17):
I mean we do sometimes. Yeah, all right, I love it.

Speaker 7 (02:37:19):
I gotta say, tonight feels more like a Jaeger for
dinner night for me.

Speaker 2 (02:37:24):
Oh, I am absolutely drinking tonight.

Speaker 7 (02:37:27):
So I don't know, Dave, are you drinking tonight? Well,
it's his birthday. He's seventy one today. You should you
should tip back a couple and then let fly from there.

Speaker 2 (02:37:40):
Excuse see it?

Speaker 7 (02:37:45):
So, uh yeah, world, egg day World. I mean there
are probably places around the world that don't have chickens.
And uh, you know, you ever know that guy who
was drinking raw eggs? You know, in the immediate aftermath
of the Rocky movies in the mid seventies, you had

(02:38:07):
you know, your old your your your Jim bros. Back then,
they're all drinking raw eggs and ain't gonna kill you.
But it's pretty gross. Ain't no, it's not good either,
but you know a lot of good stuff in eggs.

Speaker 2 (02:38:26):
And world.

Speaker 7 (02:38:27):
Egg Day has been around for about thirty years, started
in Vienna, Home of the Sausages.

Speaker 2 (02:38:36):
And Billy Joel's best song, you know what It's for You?

Speaker 7 (02:38:40):
That was when he reconnected with his father. And if
you had watched the Billy Joel documentary, Rob you'd know
that I'm sorry, Ellen, I haven't found twelve hours to.

Speaker 2 (02:38:49):
Do that, all right, it's five and frankly too short.

Speaker 7 (02:38:57):
But he recon his father left them when they were little,
him and his sister, and so he finally reconnects with
his father who had left the country.

Speaker 2 (02:39:06):
He'd gone to Vienna, had more kids and had a life.

Speaker 7 (02:39:10):
So Billy Joel's faced with like this guy he'd never
really knew, a half brother who's Austrian, who is like
a conductor in Austria, but who, as Tim Disney and
I were talking earlier, got a better version of his father.
And so Billy Joel's like it was. It was a
lot of emotions, like it's your dad. And you know,

(02:39:31):
when he was a kid, his dad would play piano
and so he got some of that from him, but
his dad was never around to experience his global success.
So there's a portion of the documentary where he finally
kind of reconciles with his father, but his dad is
also kind of non plus by the whole thing. He's
kind of like, Eh, it's good, you know, But that

(02:39:52):
song Vienna is about reconciling with his father, and I
thought it was about the sausages me too.

Speaker 2 (02:40:00):
It was not. Now I like the song much less
quite frankly, but how do we not have Vienna in here?
You said that's his best song?

Speaker 6 (02:40:12):
No not.

Speaker 8 (02:40:13):
I thought you said one of my favorite songs. Oh
maybe I did, but it's yeah, I mean his best song.
It's it's a great I love it. I think it's
one of my favorites.

Speaker 7 (02:40:21):
But you referred to it as Billy Joel's best song. Okay,
And I'm not arguing with you. I'm just saying I
hadn't heard that. I love that whole album The Stranger,
from front to back. My mom played it all the time.

Speaker 8 (02:40:32):
Yeah, I'll put this well towards the top. If I
said my favorite, I'll stand by it.

Speaker 2 (02:40:38):
Not we didn't start the fire, No god, no, no,
you sure, you crazy child.

Speaker 16 (02:40:48):
You're so ambitious for juven on, But then if you're
so smart, tell me, why are you still so fraid?

Speaker 5 (02:41:00):
Where's the fire?

Speaker 2 (02:41:01):
What's the hurry about your bid? Who hit us? A
song about Arson Hitler route? Where's the fire?

Speaker 16 (02:41:07):
So much to do and only so many hours in
a day? A booze is satisfied. Stream on, But don't
imagine now when will you be in a way us?

Speaker 2 (02:41:28):
What a great, great voice, man, a great voice, Jesus,
Billy Joel's got a good voice.

Speaker 14 (02:41:33):
It's the amazing voice. He's another complicated dude in real life, you.

Speaker 2 (02:41:37):
Know, but what a voice.

Speaker 7 (02:41:40):
And that's so you know he's got it. I don't
think he's got what Bruce Willis has. But but Billy
Joel is a brain thing, right, that's why he called
off the tour. And he was supposed to be on
the road this year, like he was supposed to come
to back to Brown Stadium, I think with Stevie Nicks,
yeah this year and postpone that whole thing. That's gonna
be a real bummer too when they go. Billy Joel,
you know, doesn't know where is anymore or whatever. And

(02:42:02):
he's got little kids now too. Talk about old dad.
He got married for like the fifth time, and by
that time he's like, I don't want to You know,
that wife got a different version of him. He wasn't
grinding it out anymore. He's like, I don't want to
tour for a while. So he had a couple of
little girls, he had twin girls. Yeah, he's supposed to

(02:42:22):
be playing tonight in Vegas, and I think all those
got postponed.

Speaker 2 (02:42:29):
He's gonna do a friggin residence here or whatever. Yuck.
This is the better version for sure.

Speaker 22 (02:42:48):
Bryant An Oberlin Rock, I couldn't sider stand they want
to hire me and then they go, yeah, you.

Speaker 2 (02:43:00):
Gotta yahoo it up. Come on, follow boys out there
trying to update.

Speaker 7 (02:43:06):
We didn't start the fire, and Scott right there, whatever
the hell he's talking about, You're never gonna top that version.
You think Billy Joel ever wrote in all of his
amazing lyrics, you think that it ever occurred to him
to write down the phrase yahoo it up.

Speaker 2 (02:43:20):
No, much to his eventual chagrin, I have to.

Speaker 8 (02:43:26):
Assume Marilyn Monroe Monroe, it's crack Bernie gets.

Speaker 2 (02:43:34):
Marilyn monroero al, I never liked eggs all right, another
county heard.

Speaker 8 (02:43:42):
Oh God for you coming in hot. Yes, never liked eggs.
Damn you eggs. How do you feel about ducks?

Speaker 7 (02:43:52):
We got into a conversation years ago, me and Mary Santora.
I didn't realize how many ways there are to prepare eggs.
She was like, Oh, there's like nine or ten official ways.
I'm like, you are high. There's fried, scrambled, sunnyside over easy.
And then as I'm rattling them off, I'm like, oh,
I'm up around five or six you.

Speaker 2 (02:44:12):
Oh yeah, there's tons of them. Now.

Speaker 8 (02:44:14):
I don't care for them runny. I'm not a huge
runny egg guy myself. That's why when I watch those videos,
like when people make that Asian omelet that they put
on top of yeah, and then they slice it and
then egg just goes yeah, I don't like that.

Speaker 7 (02:44:26):
I mean, I can make a hell of a sunny
side up egg for someone else, like I'm cooking eggs
for someone else. I can do all that, But for me,
I'll just crack a bunch of them in the pan,
scramble them.

Speaker 2 (02:44:35):
And I'm done.

Speaker 8 (02:44:36):
I Once a year, maybe we'll get that craving for
like egg yolk on toast. You know what I mean,
like if you do that, but it's very very rare, of.

Speaker 2 (02:44:49):
Course, I know what you mean. Yeah, I just had
a phenomenal idea.

Speaker 7 (02:44:54):
We were talking about minutes ago breakfast for dinner, and
I said, tonight feels more like a Yaeger for dinner
night for me. I'm gonna crack one of these eggs
in my Yeager.

Speaker 8 (02:45:02):
It's a great idea. Yes, let the Yegger cook it.
I'm gonna put the egg in Jaeger Yegger, Yeger, Yegermeister.
I'm gonna sprinkle some cilantro in there.

Speaker 7 (02:45:15):
Oh gosh, I'm gonna garnish it with Arby's steak nuggets.

Speaker 8 (02:45:20):
I do think I would rather eat the egg or
drink the raw egg that I would have shot a
yeager too.

Speaker 2 (02:45:27):
I can't really, I cannot drink the egg. Love it.
I can't get enough.

Speaker 7 (02:45:31):
I'm gonna put a shot of yegger shot him alort
an egg yolk an Rby's steak nugget.

Speaker 2 (02:45:37):
What did your body do to you today that you
need to pay it back for? Show me where life
hurt you. Yeah, I gotta make myself a note. People
get mad on Friday, because I keep forgetting about Brian's
finger bang. Right, I'm sorry, I'm sorry.

Speaker 22 (02:45:55):
Bang bang binger bang bang binger bang bang bang bang
finger bang bang finger bang bang bang bang finger bang
bang finger bang.

Speaker 2 (02:46:06):
There you go, I'm sorry I forgot. I'll start to
make myself a note with second to spair. We get
it done, and now I must.

Speaker 6 (02:46:15):
Leave you as the Brady bunch is on and I
find four of those children incredibly arousing.

Speaker 2 (02:46:22):
Get at it.

Speaker 23 (02:46:23):
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.

(02:46:44):
One slip and you know who you're through. Big Brother
is watching you.

Speaker 18 (02:46:50):
And oh will all Nary remember obedience paid. And when
you watch that TV screens, remember it works both ways.

Speaker 23 (02:47:05):
You'll disappear in a wink. Unless you can double think,
you'll vanish into the blue. Big Brother is watching you.
