U M m as.

Speaker 3 (01:01):
All my inputs and outputs have been properly wired, Robin fixed,
I beg your pardon. All my inputs and outputs have
been properly wired.

Speaker 4 (01:09):
I didn't realize you had an after issue with your
inputs and outputs.

Speaker 3 (01:12):
I usually don't have any problem with my outputs. Sometimes
my inputs get a little weird. Nothing a couple of
double D batteries can't fix. Hey, good afternoon. My name
is Alan Cox. Thanks for being here. Rob Anthony's right
over there. What's up, man boy? There was a lot
of response, So you flipping your wig over the early
Halloween decorations here. I've done a lot of thinking about it,
and it kind of broke out fifty to fifty. Oh.

(01:35):
I think the overarching opinion was that you were unnecessarily
going to give yourself angina Ogita. Yeah, but people kind
of broke down long party lines, kind of fifty to
fifty on the whole thing. I've been thinking about it.

Speaker 4 (01:54):
I've been putting a lot of thought into it and
my reaction to it, and what I think we should
actually do if we want to have a nice spooky
event here at six six eight euclid apm, we're.

Speaker 3 (02:06):
Only two digits off the address from a truly spooky Halloween.
I want to mention something to you. I'm not going
to call it karma, because that would be unfair to
the parties involved, but that was you'll understand what I mean.
It was the first thing that came to my mind
this morning when I came in, you know how to
one of our female colleagues here, who is organizing this

(02:28):
Halloween trick or treat party thing? She new, mom, she
and one of our other female colleagues, somehow along the
line commandeered one of the conference rooms and made it
into their office. Yeah, right there in the window. And
I came in this morning and the only additions, and
they're also the ones that hung all of the decorations
yesterday that got all of Rob's stander up. The only

(02:55):
addition that I noticed, unless they were up there yesterday
and I just wasn't paying close enough attention, was a
string of orange lights in their office. Okay, nobody deal,
it's in their thing in there. But anyway, so I'm
sitting down this morning at the desk where I start
doing my stuff here while I'm waiting for Mark Nolan
to vacate the studio here, and their office is directly

(03:17):
behind me, and I hear her mention a mouse, and
I go oh, and so I kind of poked my
head in, and we're all very friendly. There's no you know,
acrimony or anything like that. I go, I saw a
mouse in the garage here, and she goes, well, it
must be inside now, because there was a bunch of
poop in my file cabinet. So again it's not karma.

(03:40):
But now we're trying to and I said, well, I
will bring in one of my humane traps and we'll
see if that does anything. You know, it's been a
few days since I've gotten a mouse in one of
my humane traps. I put one in my attic and
I put one in my garage. And the way that
these humane traps work, it's like this plastic cylinder and

(04:00):
it's got a little spring mechanism on it that when
they go in, it trips. That spring doesn't do anything
to them, but it flaps the end of the thing
shut so they can't get out. So I take these
plastic things and I put like a big doll up
of peanut butter at one end to draw them in,
and I put one up in the attic, and then
I put one in the garage. It's been three or
four days since I've gotten a mouse, so maybe they've

(04:23):
gotten the word. I don't know, But yeah, she found
a bunch of mouse poop and her file capnet. I
can't believe she already found the mouse I left it. Yes,
an occasional mouse has been seen here at seventy two
thousand WMS. Yeah, we catch it if people didn't keep
stealing my traps. But yeah. So again, I can't imagine

(04:44):
that's something that would, like, you know, make you feel
better about the or the premature Halloween decorations. But it
is possibly something that might distract them. They've been a
new focus now, distract them from putting up anymore. But
I don't know. Maybe not. No, they they'll they'll continue.
That was I'll tell you why I was told that

(05:05):
was the first pass at decorations. Well, as I sat
down this morning, the big Boss, Keith hodgkinss he goes, boy,
Rob doesn't like those decorations. Huh, I go, well, you'd
wanna you'd want to either listen to the Alan Cock
Show podcast available wherever you get podcasts. Even Stansbury was
alluding it to it on you hear him talking about that. Yeah,

(05:28):
it was a nice little cross promote for our podcast,
and his entree into that was you flipping out. Yeah,
Rob's and Dick listen to the podcast My Heart Radio.
It wasn't even that though, I think it was. Again,
people are taking the wrong uh not lesson from this,
but the wrong message from this. Not that Rob is
anti Halloween. He just thought that the uh for an

(05:48):
office party, that the decorations were way to the two
weeks premature.

Speaker 4 (05:54):
Yeah, and I'm not I'm not anti any of it,
especially I'm not anti Halloween. I'm not anti kid. I
have kids. I love my kids. I love all kids.
I think they're great. I just don't think I need
to see them at a Halloween party at the work
place I work.

Speaker 3 (06:07):
I really do only like my kids. I mean, I'm
not a guy who was ever planning on having children,
and I have three because I man, I just love
leaving it in. But I have three, and they their ages,
of course span many, many years. But I'm not like
a in general, like kids love me feeling, by and large,

(06:29):
usually not mutual. But fine, They're fine. But I'm fine
if I don't ever have to interact with children. But yeah,
we'll see. I don't know. I have to individually wrap
all those Brussels sprouts. In anticipation of that party.

Speaker 4 (06:44):
I was thinking about how we could really make it
a fun experience for parents bringing their kids to work here,
huh and see what mom and dad really do in
the bowels.

Speaker 3 (07:00):
He's gonna be the downtown Cleveland, so it's not gonna
be like the chocolate covered cherries with.

Speaker 4 (07:04):
Nose and no no, no, no, no, no, nothing like that.
I just think we need to make it. If you
want it to be really scary and really like halloweeny,
I'm gonna put a free lunch outside and just a
free lunch sign outside and just leave our doors open
and just let let what's out there come on in
for free lunch and let people really experience that downtown

(07:27):
feel I see every day.

Speaker 3 (07:29):
But he's gonna be little kids any early. You gotta
learn early.

Speaker 4 (07:34):
The guy that's just standing there with one eye screaming
into a sock, that's scary. You need to see that,
see that and embrace that, and then share a sandwich.

Speaker 3 (07:44):
And then when you're done and you're.

Speaker 4 (07:46):
Like, you know, I've had just about enough of this,
go use the bathroom. Oh yeah, and maybe if we're lucky,
they'll let you help clean it.

Speaker 3 (07:55):
Let'say, we were talking about this yesterday. We're halfway there
with the brown and orange Halloween color. Because down here
in six six s eight euclid boy, there's already a
lot of brown out there. So it's being smeared on
the windows and on the sidewalks and on the so
all we have to do is maybe throw in some
candy corn and you've got the whole Uh, you get
the whole motive.

Speaker 4 (08:12):
Did you see the big giant like liquid blast that
someone didn't?

Speaker 3 (08:18):
I did not see that now out there on the
Oh god, is that outside the tam No, that's right
outside of our conference room. Oh yes, someone yeah, somebody,
someone's fecal matters bent over and.

Speaker 4 (08:28):
Did like a wo wow, like a full sneeze of
the bum on the side of that wall. A rectal sneeze. Yeah, wow,
rectal sneeze. It's got parsley in it, which was my
favorite part, clearly Cilantro. And that's always what the That's
always what they ask you when you check out.

Speaker 3 (08:46):
If I'm buying Cilantro, which I usually am the grocery store,
she'll look at me Cilantro or parcel a. Hang on,
I'll taste it and let you know that's right now.
I grew up being forced to eat a lot of
parsley because my mom was like, it's good for it,
it's good for it. I hate parsley now because I
was forced to eat some much of it as a kid.
I'm like, it's a garnish fine. I like Cilandro. As
I saw the tag spelled last time I was there, Clandro,

(09:08):
I'm like, it's right on the tag. It's like when
people email me a L E N. You just had
to write it in the address. Why is it being misspelled? Yeah,
the tag a giant eagle out by me. I was
over there on Sunday getting taco stuff for my kid
and it said Solandro and I was like, Okay, that's fine.
D Rock is one of our bureau chiefs. He's in
El Paso, Texas, and he's like, I'm with Rob on

(09:28):
this one. Boy. Office parties bring out the worst in people,
and they're just it's cool until people start taking food
and fighting over decorations.

Speaker 2 (09:35):
Yeah.

Speaker 3 (09:35):
But again, this is a party that is geared toward kids.
So this is going to be like some Christmas thing
where everybody's getting drunk and you know, photocopy in their
b hole or anything like that. I mean, we don't
really have those, I don't think anymore. I mean the
Christmas party this company has here happens while we're on
the air, thank god. And last year I said, oh,

(09:56):
we should go, and then we went and I immediately
regretted it. So I think the this year we'll probably
skip so, I mean that was my thought, but I
want to be the one that suggested it. When we
get off the air, there's a few minutes left, we
can walk down to East fourth and yeah, right, the
less a couple of stragglers are there. And again, you know,
we went over this ad nauseum last year. I think

(10:18):
that those are with so many people or colleagues working remotely.
It is nice to see people that we don't see
all the time, but the mere fact that they have
it while we're on the air. Right, they got rid
of our friend Jeremiah over at Kiss FM, so there's
one more afternoon show that's no longer on the air.
It's probably why they said I could bring my wife
this year. I was gonna say, I don't even know
who's on in the afternoon anymore in this cluster other

(10:41):
than us and lee Anne over at w g A R.
But she'll probably be there, right, she'll be there. We'll
be the only ones not there, yees, because we will
be here working and entertaining quote unquote, we're live.

Speaker 4 (10:54):
We are here, we are live on the radio entertdate
of the bases. Yeah, so I I uh, I would
let's just go across the street and have a drink
after the show, and we could say, hey, that was
our Christmas party, Alan, uh, happy holidays.

Speaker 3 (11:11):
I don't know what that means to play us out.
What does that mean to end the show?

Speaker 4 (11:15):
Yeah, yeah, we'll do it live.

Speaker 12 (11:18):
Okay, we'll do it live.

Speaker 3 (11:23):
I used to play that at the end of this
show all the time. Oh what a fun, fun clip.

Speaker 4 (11:28):
I love that, you know, like, just it builds and
we've been there, you know what I mean, something's not working.
You try it once, you try it twice, and you
just start you feel you can just like.

Speaker 3 (11:39):
Yep. It's like when people out there come to me
and go, hey, could you do this? Yeah, let me
just do everybody's job. How about that? Let me do
your job? You want to do mine? One of those
you mean all the time.

Speaker 10 (11:50):
Allen Carr Show one's writing bits and ruh was rattling clit.

Speaker 8 (12:02):
Maybe college is.

Speaker 13 (12:04):
A scam The Allen cock Show w MMS.

Speaker 3 (12:13):
I did go on to dip my hand back into
Tracy's pumpkin praising. She's a plastic pumpkin with candy o
Oh yeah, yeah. Most of it is starburst and I'm
a sucker for starburst from way back, but invariably you
get that og variety pack. You know, all that's left
is your wrist deep in lemon, lemon, and I'll take them. Listen.

(12:36):
I like lemon, but it's lemon and cherry. Everybody goes
for the orange. They go for the strawberry first. For
people who like starburst. I think there's a definite hierarchy,
as evidenced by the remainders there. I'm happy to take lemon.
Which one did you say go first?

Speaker 4 (12:50):
Strawberry goes first always, Yeah, it's strawberry and then orange,
and some people like cherry cherry, but clearly lemon goes last.

Speaker 3 (12:58):
And okay with that whatever. I had two oranges yesterday,
so good ma, pretty tasty. Hey, your Cleveland Cavaliers are
you know, holding pattern before they get ready for the
I'm sure they're practicing and things like that, doing drills,
but you won't hear anything on MMS until next week
when the regular season begins on Wednesday night in New

(13:20):
York against the Knicks. Then they'll scoot over to Brooklyn
take on the Nets Friday night before they come back
here for the home opener on Sunday, the twenty six
against the Bucks of Milwaukee. I will have a pair
of tickets for you closer to three ten today and tomorrow.

Speaker 4 (13:36):
How about those Tarado Blue Jays? Yeah, who finally are
getting there?

Speaker 12 (13:41):
As in.

Speaker 14 (13:44):
Glad Junior sends a high drive the deep center tier
Regus's join. First pitch of the fifth, Glad Junior launches
a Soto shot home roll the deep son a failed.

Speaker 3 (13:57):
These guys were in process again shut out boy by
the Mariners. They still got some work to do. They've
got a lot of work to do, but at least
they're not down three to nothing right in the series,
because Seattle was up two to nine. So two to one.
Now Blue Jay is my only team that's still in it.
And it's funny.

Speaker 4 (14:12):
Over the course of those first two games, right, four runs. Yeah,
last night they scored fourteen. It's like, I mean, just
got to you gotta try to keep our thirteen. You
gotta keep consistent.

Speaker 3 (14:21):
Yeah, that's what I mean. I mean, I had seven.
I clicked in to see what was going on. I
was clicking around. I'm like, well, I see what the
Blue Jays are doing, kind of watching like a horror movie,
like between my fingers and I click on there and
I'm like, oh my god, well you got thirteen to four?
Was the final? Eight thirty tonight? Right, there's eight thirty tonight. Yeah.
I've been watching a bunch of these games. Great the Brewers,

(14:44):
what they over the Cubs? Yeah, Brewers over the Cubs. There.
My brother is a huge Milwaukee Brewers fan. There's a guy.
He sent me the story because it was on local
Chicago television, but I'm sure it went wide to a
Brewers fan who lost his job over post that they
should call ice on the Dodgers players. Classy move. Listen,

(15:05):
anything that sports is known for. It's a sense of decorum,
a sense of class, and he lost his job. Now
I'm not sure. I'm not sure what the guy did,
but something that he posted kind of blew back on him.
And that's the way that that's gonna happen. Well again, sorry,

(15:25):
she not he she. I don't get how people can't
figure this out by now.

Speaker 4 (15:31):
You see all these people getting smoked for saying and
doing stupid things online, and you still think to do
something stupid.

Speaker 3 (15:37):
Not only that, this woman, by most accounts not a scrub, no,
a lawyer working for the Make a Wish Foundation. So
it just goes to show you not everybody thinks the same.
You know what I mean, There are no monolithic thoughts.
People think that all women think the same, or that
all Latinos think the same, or that if you work

(15:59):
with you might have maybe a broader sensitivity and empathy. Nope,
she lost her job for suggesting that we call ice
on a Latino Dodgers fan. I guess, not Dodgers players,
but a Latino fan during Game two. A woman named
Shannon colb blah. It's a whole string of consonants. She

(16:23):
based out of Milwaukee there and was I guess, on
the board of Make a Wish Wisconsin and also like
an assistant general counsel, so an attorney.

Speaker 4 (16:37):
The best part of that story is the word was
was well.

Speaker 3 (16:40):
But also I'm always I'm always very much on the
fence about people who lose their jobs over things, because
it's like, that's not gonna this woman is not going
to kick back and get reflective about what she did. Right,
Everybody just walks away pissed. So I don't know, Well,

(17:00):
so what we've no I understand. I'm just saying we've
gotten to this point now where people go right to
listen the employer doesn't want the nonsense, right. So it's
not like there were people outside the building, you know.
But it was a cell phone video that made the
rounds that she made some joke and some some Dodgers fan,

(17:21):
a Latino guy was filming and he was giving he's
talking trash to brewers fans. He's like, hey, we're you know,
why is everybody so quiet? This was earlier in the series.
And uh and if your default reply is shut up,
I'm gonna call Ice on you. Well, she said, real
men drink beer, and then some expletive and she goes,

(17:45):
you know what, let's call Ice. Probably not a great idea. Well,
the guy does call Ice. I'm a US citizen, I'm
a war veteran. Not that that matters anymore, by the way,
but apparently she uh, I don't know. She takes a
swipe at his phone, and you know.

Speaker 15 (18:04):
Uh.

Speaker 3 (18:04):
But again, it doesn't matter what you do for a living.
It doesn't matter if you are a plumber. It doesn't
matter if your blue collar, white collar people are at
sporting events and they get a couple of beers in them,
and man, who knows, I don't know anything about this
woman other than this, but she worked for the man
Power Group and they said, upon becoming aware of this video,

(18:30):
this individual was placed on immediate leaves. It is obviously
your your your employer will never go to bat for
you ever. Ever, so they just don't want the nonsense.
They're like, there's a we can find a we can
swing a cat and get another lawyer.

Speaker 4 (18:46):
But in certain circumstances, the company wouldn't have to go
to bat for you.

Speaker 3 (18:50):
It's a it's a job like she has. That's the problem.
If that was a.

Speaker 4 (18:55):
Guy who was a mechanic or someone who was building
houses that said that, there would not be a problem.
It would just be, Oh, that guy's an idiot, let's
make fun of him online.

Speaker 3 (19:05):
The guy who was trash talking the Ricardo Fasado, was
the guy who took the video and then she was
in it. They talked to him and he said, I'm
from LA I was on a business trip to Chicago,
and I went up to Milwaukee because the Dodgers are
playing and I want to see them and root for them.
The woman reported him to stadium security and he was
escorted out of the stadium. He's a US it isnen

(19:28):
of Mexican descent, served in the Navy, signed up for
the military after nine to eleven, and did tours in
Afghanistan and Iraq. Sounds like a terrible guy, well, but
it also goes to show you the lip service that
so many people have paid to military. Right, all these
things that some sectors of our society said were so important.

(19:52):
He wiped our ass with him. Now when it becomes
slightly inconvenient. But even the guy, he's like, I wasn't
trying to get her fired, like it was one mistake,
but also like he posted it right. I mean, I
don't know who this guy is, but a lot of
people saw his video, so maybe he just thought, oh,
look at this lady here. I don't know. It's just

(20:15):
like anything else, dude.

Speaker 4 (20:16):
A lot of people most people love the fa without
the foe. The foe yeah right, yeah, love to play
the stupid game, but you hate the stupid prize.

Speaker 3 (20:27):
Well, I guess. But my thought is always like, there's gotta.

Speaker 4 (20:32):
Be room to like screw around with people, you know
what I mean, in that way.

Speaker 3 (20:38):
No, not in that way. I don't know what I mean.

Speaker 4 (20:40):
If you start throwing that stuff around, that just shows
who you are anyway, And why did your employer want you? Yeah,
if you go right to that, Yeah, that's where you start, right, Okay,
Jose's eyes.

Speaker 3 (20:52):
Right, I see you later, Karen, get out of here.
Don't you have some trees to be planting somewhere?

Speaker 4 (20:57):
It looks like someone's gardener's out today.

Speaker 3 (21:00):
Uh, your beauty Now all my friends got sent over
the border. So I don't know what you're talking about.

Speaker 2 (21:06):
Alan.

Speaker 3 (21:06):
We used to make Starburst balls as kids. We'd roll
them all. I guess it's self explanatory. You don't wrap
them and then roll them all up together in a ball.
It sounds so like I hope to God it has
to be sanitary in some way. So I was gonna
say it sounds labor intensive and far less enjoyable that
you're like, oh, for two or that one. Maybe that

(21:28):
was a common thing. I don't know what's the matter
with eating them individually or putting two in your mouth.

Speaker 14 (21:34):
You're like two thirty one everybody?

Speaker 3 (21:38):
Uh what's that?

Speaker 2 (21:40):
Brian? This is penis all right?

Speaker 3 (21:43):
Thank you? Two of them? Alan, who references starbursts by flavor,
you maniac? It's by color.

Speaker 4 (21:50):
I mean, I guess I get Yeah, I mean, you know,
I know the flavor yellow strawberry.

Speaker 3 (21:56):
Yeah, if somebody goes, what's your favorite flavor and you
go yellow, I would say out. Nobody goes what's your
favorite color? They go what's your favorite flavor? And you
say strawberry. You don't go pink? Maybe you do. I
don't know. I guess I would say red.

Speaker 4 (22:08):
For like, if someone was like, what kind of Starburst
is that, I would say red, But you would I think,
would go to you know, I.

Speaker 3 (22:14):
Mean I've heard people say red starburst. You know, mix cherry, lemon,
and orange, you get fruit punch. Okay, well you mix
all four of them, then you get, according to this
other person, a starburst ball.

Speaker 4 (22:23):
I just keep thinking of all of like the hair
and stuff that's in it from like rolling it around.

Speaker 3 (22:28):
On a snowball with your hands. Yeah, roll it for
like three days to make this solid ball, and it's
sticky because your hands warm and dog hair. Alan Besides
being a moron for a whole host of reasons, you're wrong.
Lemon and orange are fantastic, way better than strawberry is great.

(22:48):
I don't dislike either of those. I'm saying that I
would default to strawberry. I think strawberry is the best one.
But when I went out here and was faced with
a bucketfull lemon, I and complain, cherry is my least Sorry,
red is my least favorite. I think me too.

Speaker 4 (23:04):
No, I would go I would go lemon, yellow is
my least favorite, and then cherry, then orange, then strawberry.

Speaker 3 (23:12):
That's the hierarchy. Alan, What are your top five Jolly
rancher flavors? I was just having this conversation with my
nine year old the other night. She was in class
and somebody had a Jolly Rancher or she got one
from I don't know, a prize or something for some quiz,
and we were discussing jolly rancher flavors. Now, a lot

(23:34):
of them have come out over the years. I mean
the cutting edge of jolly rancher when I was a
kid was when they released the sour Apple. No, you
don't like sour apple. See, they didn't have a lot
of the tropical ones when I was a kid. They
didn't have Like I had a friend whose favorite one
you want to talk about? A psycho, His favorite Jolly
Rancher was cinnamon.

Speaker 4 (23:52):
Oh my god, really, eighty five years old, I didn't
know you could get those.

Speaker 3 (23:57):
I mean blue raspberry was an o G Jolly Rancher flavor.
I think I like sour apple. Wow, you're writing this down.
I like watermelon, I like green apple, and I like Uh,
that's probably if if those three are around them. Okay,
the green apple thing.

Speaker 4 (24:18):
Would always piss me of because I thought it was
lime and I'd put it in my mouth expecting lime
and taste green apple.

Speaker 3 (24:23):
You wanted lime, I would eat lime all day long.
Lime lime candy, Yeah, I would take I would take
lime all day over. Huh do you like lime jello?
I do? Oh? So you like across the board lime
as a flavor.

Speaker 4 (24:38):
I just I enjoy lime like key lime pie is
one of my favorites. Yeah, but the the correct answer
for the greatest Jolly rancher flavor is grape, of course,
is the number one, best followed by watermelon naturally.

Speaker 3 (24:52):
Uh like just green apple? Matter with you?

Speaker 4 (24:56):
I like green apple. I like them For me, I
like its sour and I could you know, I mean
blue raspberry I could get down with. I don't recall
that being an OG flavor.

Speaker 3 (25:05):
Though, Hey, who wants a cinnamon candy?

Speaker 4 (25:08):
Little Robbie, Little Robbie.

Speaker 3 (25:10):
Anthony does, Hey, who's got lime? Miss Grandma?

Speaker 4 (25:16):
Because she's dead, but you still want the flavors of
her life.

Speaker 3 (25:19):
You do cinnamon and lime. You don't like the flavor
of lime. It's fine. I mean I like lime, I
like the fruit. I like lime juice on some food.
But no, I would never default to a lime candy.

Speaker 4 (25:34):
Oh if something, if something is green. I think there's
a reason there is no lime. Starburst, since we're on
that topic, there is it in their in their jelly beans. Oh,
who wants jelly beans?

Speaker 3 (25:46):
Hey, who misses Ronald Reagan? Jenny? Miss guys?

Speaker 4 (25:51):
Starburst does make the best jelly beans. It comes out
around the Easter time, you know, And there are there
is a lime variety.

Speaker 3 (25:58):
If I see.

Speaker 4 (25:58):
Something Robbie Anthony looking high and low for vanilla jelly
beans along with his lime candies.

Speaker 3 (26:06):
The pina colada one shoved in there too, I don't
like that. Well, Listen, I still remain, as an adult
as amazed and fascinated as I was as a child
that the jelly belly people can so accurately replicate those flavors.
I eat a pear flavored jelly belly, My mind continues.

Speaker 4 (26:26):
To be blown every single time. How did they do?
How did they do it?

Speaker 3 (26:32):
Do you ever do the gross flavor ones?

Speaker 8 (26:34):
Yeah?

Speaker 3 (26:34):
We did that on the show years ago, bean boozled.

Speaker 4 (26:36):
Yeah, whether it's you know, like I don't know, green
apple or booger, Yeah.

Speaker 3 (26:40):
We did it. Did it here on the show. Me
and Erica Lauren, we were pretty jose. Yeah, we'd play
you got bean boozled, you just got.

Speaker 4 (26:50):
Yeah, play again we can if you want, I'll go
get them there next door. I guarantee you they have
candy shot and yeah, oh, speaking of candy.

Speaker 2 (27:01):
Hey, Allen.

Speaker 4 (27:02):
Yesterday at work, I went up to my other guy
I work with and I go, hey, Jim, can you
order me some urinal cakes?

Speaker 2 (27:07):
And he's like, yeah, sure, how many do you want?

Speaker 16 (27:09):
And I was like, oh no, man.

Speaker 4 (27:11):
I was like, I was just kidding, but I did
that because you talk about urinal cakes.

Speaker 3 (27:15):
Do you mentioned just going to a random person who
has no idea what the context of it is and going, hey,
order me some urinal cakes, will you.

Speaker 4 (27:22):
You know what else I took from that is it's
so easy for that guy to get urinal cakes and
impossible for us.

Speaker 3 (27:27):
Like that guy was like yeah, how many you want?
What do you need?

Speaker 2 (27:29):
Oh?

Speaker 3 (27:29):
I went back online this morning looking to see again.
There's a website called ppface dot com. I kid you not,
ppface dot com personalized urinal cakes e E p e
E E p ee. Yeah, you got it, and then
you can. H let's see what we did here. I
put the I put an older picture on my face

(27:50):
in the middle, and then I'm like, I don't care
for that, and so I put the logo in there,
and then we could get personalized Alan Cox show. These
are urinal screensh. Yeah, so that's not just the case.
There's that there, the custom urinal screen. But they're like
twenty four bucks apiece, right if you buy them in bulk,

(28:11):
they only go down to like twelve bucks apiece. So
it's uh, I don't know. It's it's novelty. It's a
novel and like kind of funny, I guess for the joke,
but that's a pretty thin joke.

Speaker 4 (28:22):
Isn't there a company that would just sell like those
blue discs you see everywhere?

Speaker 3 (28:27):
That's what I was initially looking for, but I think
those are kind of falling out of favor. I don't know,
maybe they make them in limey.

Speaker 4 (28:38):
Do you guys sell lime urinal cakes? You're not supposed
to eat them, right, just you know that would smell
much better than most urinals. Do you have blue raspberry
urinal cakes? You know their pressure activated. So when you
get a nice strong stream in.

Speaker 3 (28:50):
The middle of it, and there's a kid in my
office who will eat every single jolly rancher except for
the green apple, what a room, all right? A bunch
of amateurs out there. High Chew is a way to go.
I concur wholeheartedly. I love high Chew. They're a lot
easier to find now than they used to be. Literally,
back in the day, you had to be going to

(29:12):
like a Chinese buffet or something to get hie chew
up at the counter. Now they have them in stores
and you get him a giant eagle. Hi chew was
They were like the best kept secret for a long time,
like the sour grapefruit high cheos Dynamite. Are they chewy?
I don't think I've ever had one. Oh yeah, High
cheeres are great. You can get them in like the
packs that look like a pack of Starburst, but they

(29:33):
also that's one flavor. But you can get like the
variety flavors in the bags. I just prefer the sour ones.
It's a little it's a little added elements to the
candy rob that I enjoy so much. Alanui once got
a fifty pack of a sort of laffy taffy, and
twenty five of them were banana. Easily the worst candy flavor. Well,

(29:56):
you know circus peanuts. My dad loved Circus peanuts. It's right,
He's probably one of four people in the whole world
who liked them. But they are technically banana flavored, are
they really? Yeah? I didn't know that. Yeah, so when
you eat a laughy taffy, you can have the banana ones.
You know, banana runts will be the last ones to

(30:18):
go as well. You remember who did this? I don't
remember who d four l banana Yanna, Nana, nana. When
it comes to a girl shaking her laughy taffy rob
uh huh see laugh taffy.

Speaker 4 (30:35):
I was never huge on e like it's just too
too sticky. You take small bites of its pain in
the ass to eat. I loved what was it when
I was a kid? Tangy taffy When I was a kid,
left tangy Taffy.

Speaker 3 (30:46):
The Allen Carr Show.

Speaker 8 (30:48):
On one call the Allan Cox Show.

Speaker 1 (30:54):
Because he's my best friend, he's my pow, he's my homeboy,
my rotten soldier, he's my sweet cheese, my good time boy.

Speaker 17 (31:01):
Two six seven eight one double oh seven or one
eight three four eight.

Speaker 11 (31:05):
One double oh seven.

Speaker 7 (31:33):
See him on that brook in a home depot.

Speaker 3 (31:38):
Do you see what they're doing out there in Parma?

Speaker 2 (31:40):
Now?

Speaker 3 (31:40):
You know, we were talking about State Meats yesterday. I
got a lot of messages from Parmanians to a very
tale end of the show. Yesterday we were talking about
Taste of Transylvania there in Parma, which is a great
name for a spot. And then kind of going down
the line there you know State needs. I think that's
State Tuxedo. They're in Parma, and I heard from a

(32:01):
bunch of people here, Hey, we go there and we have.

Speaker 4 (32:04):
Lunch in the it's delicious and we'll get Okay, thank
you sir, No, it's good listen.

Speaker 3 (32:12):
But you know what else is a scourge in Parma.
It's a scourge is when people try to lift these flamingos,
but lift them in steel. The Parma flamingo kind of
the de facto mascot, I guess of Parma, Ohio. I
was writing a story that the city is now going

(32:34):
to place tracking tags on the flamingo statues. Why would
you tell people that? I mean, clearly they just want
it to be a deterrent. But then why wouldn't you
try to scoop up what too much paperwork? Well, when
you try, why wouldn't you let them be stolen again
and then track them down?

Speaker 4 (32:53):
Because I think they want to give people the opportunity
not to incriminate themselves.

Speaker 3 (32:58):
All right, you're on here. I plead the fifth I plead.
I don't know what am I supposed to plead for
stealing a flamingo? But think of all the I mean,
if you prosecute someone for this, I would imagine maybe
it's a misdemeanor. But I mean, even if you, you know,
find yourself a plaintiff in the situation like this, if
you're up there on the bench, all of the amazing

(33:19):
puns that you are missing out on, you, sir, are
flamingo wing to jail. Things like that. Okay, so there're one,
not a lot of great puns, but maybe just one,
and and thank you, good night. So our accident. It's
not an accident at all. This thief won't be able

(33:42):
to fly the coop anytime soon.

Speaker 17 (33:46):
Maybe he got taken for a ride.

Speaker 3 (33:51):
The pink Flamingo, of course, is now the official city mascot,
and the city wants to make sure that the Flamingos
stay where they are. You know, Parma has one of
those script signs.

Speaker 17 (34:03):
You know.

Speaker 3 (34:03):
Cleveland was the first, I think to get one of
those script signs, you know, for people who might have
just awakened from a calma and forget where they live.
And then Parma got one. They have one out where
I live, Bay Village, right there on the lake. They're
all equally silly, but people like taking photos of them,
and it's fine. And the Flamingo has become arguably equally

(34:24):
as recognizable there in Parma, Ohio. Long scene is a
punchline against the working class suburb. I'm just reading this
as written in Cleveland scene and then celebrated as an
unofficial symbol of city pride. The pink Flamingo has taken
its rightful place as the official mascot Parma, and so

(34:45):
they did this whole to do. Tim Degeeter is the
longtime mayor of Parma. Of course I came to town
during the Depiro administration. But you know, this was a joke,
you know, sixty years ago or her. And little by
little you'll you'll start to see stories with some frequency

(35:05):
about people stealing these flamingos. Trouble is they're bolted down right,
so they break the leg or they and unfortunately, because
it's an accurate represation representation of a flamingo, you know,
they're not taking their artistic liberties with them in any way,
very very thin legs. If you have the proper tools,
or you know, let's say a big friend who can

(35:26):
really put his shoulder into it, you can crack these
flamingos right off the base seven feet tall. Most recent
incident with two young Valley View men made off with
one of the flamingos, and so they've tagged them as
you would tag a real flamingo. They've replicated that here,
and so they're tagging them just for entertainment purposes. I

(35:50):
understand that, you know, there's a there's a legal component
to it, and that requires people. It's labor intensive. I
guess if you can avoid a run in, it's best
that you do, but just for entertainment purposes. And then
be great if they tracked down a stolen Parma Flamingo
to someone's house, them not knowing that there was a treat.

(36:12):
Hey is Frank home? Who's asking? Yeah? Is Jimmy home?
These big pink feet sticking out of the window. What
are you talking about?

Speaker 18 (36:22):
Now?

Speaker 4 (36:22):
Open the closet door and you hit on the head
by soccer balls and hockey sticks, and you know, must
have been some other guy.

Speaker 3 (36:28):
A couple of broken flamingo feet. So I don't know
how many of those they have. I think they only
have a couple, don't They have two Parma flamingos that
are most recognizable there they were for of them as statues.
I'm not sure how many. You know, you'll see obviously
see small ones in people's front yards and things like that.
Once it started to make the rounds, the city kind

(36:51):
of adopted it too. But now they're tagged did you
see me? The Morland Hills story? I did, Okay, sold
Hills right, which is east Side. It's a very small,
very affluent community, shall we say, lacking in diversity, wink wink.
In fact, I'm pretty sure that's how they got their name.

(37:12):
We want Moreland, but it's very small and they are
beset by pumpkin thieves, and the Morland Hills Police have
said that they will prosecute the pumpkin thieves if they
find anyone trying to add a Morland Hills pumpkin to

(37:32):
their own collection. They want nothing to do with that
kind of Halloween fun and they will see to it that,
you know.

Speaker 5 (37:41):
Longtime Morland Hills home owner Nancy Thomas says she knows
the frustration of an annual Halloween prank firsthand.

Speaker 3 (37:50):
Did you want you violate it?

Speaker 6 (37:52):
Look?

Speaker 3 (37:52):
Yes, at that point I did with respect. What a
weird word for the local news reporter to pull out,
and what an odd response that's leading the witness. Did
you feel violated by someone seeing your pumpkin? Yes?

Speaker 8 (38:08):
I did.

Speaker 3 (38:08):
I did. I was very attached to that pumpkin.

Speaker 18 (38:11):
But afterwards, I yeah, I just came to the conclusion
that you can't put pumpkins out until after you think
it's over.

Speaker 5 (38:22):
Thomas says pumpkins have been stolen off her front porch
in the past, but she's torn on how police should
handle it. Moreland Hills Police now sending out a serious reminder,
pranks that damage or take someone else's property aren't just tricks.

Speaker 3 (38:38):
They I like those two and the only decoration of
these two pumpkins on someone's step there done in black sharpie.
One of the pumpkins says born to rock and the
other one says grown to roll. Okay, they are crimes.

Speaker 19 (38:52):
A big problem is that some of these properties are
very large. The frontage, you know, from the front of
the house of the street is concerning. It is one
of the theft, obviously, but the trespassing running through somebody's
yard in the middle of the night in darkness.

Speaker 3 (39:04):
That's a nice way of saying, this is a community
with massive houses. Yeah, exactly. Yeah, thetormous houses out here
is like five thousand people, but very affluent.

Speaker 19 (39:12):
With masks and hoods on. It can be alarming if
somebody should see that.

Speaker 5 (39:16):
Police say, two specific ordinances come into play, criminal treuspassing
and theft. The pumpkin prank tradition began back in nineteen
sixty seven.

Speaker 3 (39:26):
With a group of high school upper classmen.

Speaker 5 (39:29):
Hundreds of pumpkins brought here to Grove Hill in nearby
Chagrin Falls, where kids would smash them and slide down
on sleds.

Speaker 3 (39:39):
Creating a you've ever seen that Chagrin Falls pumpkin slide thing.
It's right next door to Moorland Hills Chagrin Falls. Sounds yeah,
it's looks hilarious. I mean they do it every year,
and it also sounds very innocent by the way, and
messy too. Oh they still like pumpkin Well, I'm sure
they're well aware. Like the lady said, you know, they've
been doing this prank and then this started as a

(40:01):
prank and then it became like a full on town thing.
But if you live out there, you're like, oh, they
took my pumpkins for the slide, and I don't care.
Or just put a plastic pumpkin out.

Speaker 4 (40:14):
Or wait until the day after this thing, or or
just buy another six dollars pumpkin.

Speaker 3 (40:20):
Then shut up.

Speaker 4 (40:21):
I mean, I'm the bad guy here because I don't
want to have a Halloween party at work.

Speaker 3 (40:25):
I mean, in her defense, I can't recommend somebody run
up and take somebody's pumpkin. I mean, you are taking
something that doesn't belong to you. People have If you
live next door to Chagrin Falls this time of year,
you know this is where your pumpkins are going it was.

Speaker 4 (40:39):
Yeah, people have been stealing it, smashing pumpkins since the
dawn of time.

Speaker 3 (40:43):
Does it make it right, Rob, just because a lot
of people know it?

Speaker 18 (40:48):
Uh huh.

Speaker 3 (40:51):
I mean, if your friend was gonna jump off a bridge, Rob,
would you do that? It depends on Maybe today's the
wrong day to ask you.

Speaker 4 (41:00):
Yeah, but that's like, I don't know, man, it it's
just something. It sounds like they've done it, says since
nineteen sixty seven.

Speaker 3 (41:07):
Well, last year. It's a problem. I thought too. That's
probably why those two pumpkins just were decorated in black sharpie.
They're like, I'm not gonna take the time and the
energy to carve out faces when they're gonna get stolen
and smashed on the road in this hill.

Speaker 4 (41:19):
And that police chief, well he sounds just like the
guy who would be police chief in that town too.

Speaker 11 (41:24):
Well.

Speaker 3 (41:24):
But also, I mean, it is fun to watch when
they do this, you know, slide on Grove Hill or
whatever that is. Some of these properties are rather large.
But I also think about, well, listen, he knows his croutage.
But I also wonder, like the streets and sand come
through and clean this up. I'm sure did drop a plow.

Speaker 4 (41:42):
Well, I speaking of dropping a plow, I saw something
today I've never in my life scene forty seven years
on this planet almost and I've never ever seen it.
Cop coming out onto seventy one, a plow truck directly
in front of him, drops the play and scoops about
one hundred feet.

Speaker 3 (42:03):
Of whatever was run. I'm guessing a deer. Oh yeah, road.
I've never ever seen that before. Drop, drop the blade,
just put behind him, yep, and just and they just
pushed it all off to the side of the road.

Speaker 4 (42:16):
I've never really seen anything blown up that bad they
had to do that.

Speaker 3 (42:20):
I was gonna say, there's I'm sure there's tons of
roadkill in New England.

Speaker 4 (42:23):
Well, yeah, but never I've never seen it where they
had to get out of a plow truck to get
it out of the middle lane. Yeah, like it was
because it wasn't there was nothing that was still together.
It was, you know, a thousand pieces, but it was
covered up over this massive spread out area and they
dropped the plow down and pushed it.

Speaker 3 (42:40):
I was like, oh, I see they got some they
got some mileage out of it. Oh, they dragged that
thing just pushed it off to the off to the
side of the road, because what else are you gonna do.
It was just pieces of meat everywhere. It must have
gotten like a semi or something. Man, that was insane.
I just feel bad whenever I see that. If you've
ever seen if you've ever seen a large animal get
him by a large vehicle. I saw it one time.

(43:04):
It vaporizes these explodes. No, that makes me sad. Yeah,
but they don't know it's coming, you know, No, but
they probably have.

Speaker 4 (43:13):
Enough like uh oh right, like we would say, oh
sh and then hit and it's over.

Speaker 3 (43:19):
That's my favorite trope of horror movies is that nobody
hears the train or the truck until it's right on
top of them, right like final Destination or whatever.

Speaker 4 (43:28):
I'm okay, No, never, you know, they don't.

Speaker 3 (43:31):
Hear it coming. It's just right there. It's a jump
scare for the movie people watching. Yep, oh, she got
to capitatio by this truck. You would hear a truck
coming from a good distance right in the movies. Nope,
it's right there and it just halt right when it's
right there, right, This decapitates you in the middle of
the road. Your friends are like, go ahead, cross the

(43:52):
street there, yeah, and you just get murdered right there flat. Yep.
That's my favorite horror movie trope. You can have your
final girl tripping over a log in the forest or whatever.
You can have you know, going down the wrong door
they go. I like when they don't hear the thing
that kills them until it's right on top of them.

(44:19):
I don't tell Rob's stealing pumpkins is like graffiti. It's
not your property. It's okay, well listen if you say so.
The woman in Morland Hills and again didn't look like
she you know, they were doing some b roll. Her place,
didn't look like she was in a spot with a
lot of frontage. But uh yeah, I don't know. I mean,

(44:40):
i'll tag somebody's pumpkin. I don't disagree. I just think
it's a victimless crime. It's it's there's again. The victim
is the woman sixty seven. These kids have been doing this.
I'll play devil's advocate. What if this woman one of
her favorite things to do is to go to a
nearby pat and pick out the perfect pumpkin. Which two

(45:04):
pumpkins are gonna wear? My patented Born to Rock, Grown
to roll, black Sharpie, and she goes and picks them out,
And then a couple of neighborhood toughts come in from
Chagrin Falls, right, no, less lacking in diversity than Moreland Hills.

(45:28):
And you know you know where they're going. They're doing
that pumpkin roll down Main Street. It's fun to watch.
I'm sure fun to participate.

Speaker 4 (45:37):
Then go watch your rock and roll pumpkin get thrown
down in with the other ones, and be like.

Speaker 3 (45:41):
Oh, look, I help those kids have a nice holiday.

Speaker 2 (45:44):
Yeah, be the.

Speaker 3 (45:45):
Lady who be the lady who like offers the pumpkins. Hey,
you guys need some pumpkins here, that's them going down.
Look at how cool mind mine sets Born to rock
on it. Take that one. See Dave doesn't care, Dave,

(46:06):
are you a fan of stealing pumpkins?

Speaker 4 (46:08):
M all right, what do you say when you're rolling
down the hill in one of those chairs between all
those pumpkins?

Speaker 20 (46:17):
Whoa, whoa, Yeah, it just sounds like fun.

Speaker 3 (46:29):
Alam's hand wringing. A holes. Just need to put out
a few pumpkins for them to take, like I do.
Those rich bastards can afford it. Well, there you go,
here's the voice of the working man out on the
east Side. I mean, he's not wrong, and again I
get the point. You're stealing.

Speaker 4 (46:46):
Okay, fine, it's gonna happen either way, obviously, right. I
have deer all over the place in my neighborhood. They
eat everything. Yeah, my mom's they eat my pumpkins last year,
and guess what they're gonna do eat him again this year.

Speaker 3 (47:01):
I had to put my blueberry bush in one of
those deer cages because I didn't want was trying to
get this thing to grow for the last couple of years. Yeah,
they're gonna eat it.

Speaker 15 (47:08):
Yeah.

Speaker 3 (47:08):
Well, yeah, I had a lot of deer walking through
my yard.

Speaker 4 (47:10):
But I'm like, yeah, okay, deer are gonna eat. Kids
are gonna steal pumpkins and smash them and have fun
on Halloween.

Speaker 3 (47:16):
And sometimes those two will intersect. Every once in a while,
a kid's gonna get confused, drunk or high or whatever.
He manages to steal a deer, right, and then he's
rolling down Main Street in chagrin. That but he's riding
a deer things just kicking Yeah, like a Tommy boy
when it wakes up in the vackseat bust out of
the car. Alie used to work at Chagrin Falls. People

(47:38):
would put signs out saying these pumpkins are free to take,
so everybody knows. See, that's the perfect syop right there.
That's a great bit of reverse psychology, because nobody wants
to take a pumpkin that you've been allowed to take.
You wanted to, you want to, you want to jump
up there undercover a night, right, just that everybody's a

(48:00):
ring cameras now, so you have a mask on, do
the little Fred Flintstone and the toadance. Yeah, so Alan,
those script signs are everywhere I live outside Warren, and
even Youngstown jumped to them. Well, yeah, Youngstown is trying

(48:21):
to do this whole revitalization, so to them, that was
probably the easiest cosmetic move to make. But then maybe
they're trying to help them get back on the map.
The Vindi's can't do all the heavy lifting for Youngstown,
right They are easily the brightest star in that Youngstown firmament,
but a lot of times they're not at home. So anyway,

(48:44):
I certainly cannot recommend that neighborhood tufts are rolling through
stealing anything, but it's what kids are gonna do. And
that's assuming it's kids. When you see that pumpkin roll
in Chagrin Falls, it all looks like high school and
college kids. But again, that would be the perfect undercover

(49:05):
move too, is you're a grown ass man because they're
gonna blame the kids. Yeah, but then taking pumpkins. You
can afford pumpkins.

Speaker 4 (49:12):
The grown ass man has been doing it his entire life,
That's what I'm saying. Of course, it's the grown ass
man stealing them. There's everybody's collecting them, and pumpkins used
to be cheap.

Speaker 14 (49:24):
Right.

Speaker 3 (49:24):
There's a place by me, the place that it's like
an open patch, but it's the it's in the yard
of a church in Bay Village and they just have
like this poor box there or this cash box, and
they're like, hey, give us. There's nobody there, there's no attendance.
It's just a giant yard full of various pumpkins. People
pull up and they're walking through. It's all in the
honor system, and so they're like, uh, oh, just give

(49:48):
us what you think the pump And so that's actually
kind of smart because I think where I am people
might be prone to overpay, Like I don't know what
a pumpkin costs, and so you go, oh, here's why
i'm and it's decent size. Here's twenty bucks. I don't know.
I think they I think like there's like it's like, no,
that's what I mean. Like there's no attendant. So they did.
There's a little sign there, a little box of the slot,

(50:10):
and it goes, just give us a you know, please
don't steal our pumpkins. You bet your ass though there's
people pulling up taking pumpkins.

Speaker 4 (50:16):
But if it's if they say take it right for
whatever you think. If you think it's a dollar, right,
then that's the price.

Speaker 3 (50:25):
Guys. I'm really bad with money. So what is this guy?
Like a giant pumpkin? Cuss for the sense? Like I'm
rummage around for a couple of quarters. I didn't steal it.
I got a sack of Juwia in my pocket. Is
that good? I got a buck here? You guys make change.

Speaker 21 (50:41):
Is a guy with an old coin of belt out
there king singling and selling newspapers the car show on
one's roy.

Speaker 2 (50:56):
Put this on your domain. You think you know it?

Speaker 8 (50:59):
All?

Speaker 22 (50:59):
Your talk about cool.

Speaker 15 (51:05):
About another satisfied customer the Alan Cox Show.

Speaker 3 (51:08):
I hate it. The show sucks.

point thirty is that next keyword for you to grab
a grand from the buzzard Bookie four five thirty will

day of the week for you to qualify. Try to

(51:44):
get those Rush tickets for next year. Rush is going
on their fifty something tour. They initially set one night
here in Cleveland, added another one, but the first of
those two September seventeenth. It's a Thursday night, I believe
the Rocket Arena. The tickets go on sale tomorrow. However,
all this week Stansbury's been giving him away. Rover will

(52:05):
tell you the song that Stansbury's gonna play at seven
thirty tomorrow morning. That's when he tells you, and they
tells you what song when it's gonna be What was
the song today?

Speaker 4 (52:13):

It will be early in Dan's show. Early, yes, early, early,
very early in Dan's show. It's like we practiced that tomorrow.

(52:45):
And then what's that you'd like some more Halloween fart sounds?
Oh okay, that's fine. I'm glad you asked, and thank
you to thank you to de Rock down there in
El Paso for sending them to me, because quite frankly,
what is again, this is what we should be piping
into the suite out here this morning when I'm starting
to write some things. They weren't even piping Cleveland Radio

(53:08):
station into the suite. So I don't know what was
going on, but who those are spooky and I gotta
tell you quite unnecessary pain. Yeah, sure did, But thank
you again, d Rock. Also, if you listen to us
on iHeartRadio, make sure that you tell me where you
do it from out of state. I just mailed out

(53:31):
I think seventeen envelopes this morning full of Allan Cox
show stickers to people both near and far. You don't
have to be out of state to get these, but
I do send a lot of them out. Laurie listens
to Albuquerque, New Mexico. Steve of course in South Jersey.
There in Philly, that whole area. Brendan is in Columbia,

(53:52):
South Carolina. Claude listens in Surprise, Arizona. Rachel is there
in Milwaukee. Our buddy Jeff out there in Hudson. He
wanted some stickers because he's going to visit his daughter
in Australia, and I want that wasn't me and I
wanted to make sure that we got them to him
in time. So those are en route as well. You

(54:13):
don't miss anything. You don't miss anything, mean, yeah, what
do you mean?

Speaker 2 (54:17):
Good?

Speaker 4 (54:17):
Nice little Wyatt burp something little something something, a little
something something, a little something mm hmm.

Speaker 3 (54:27):
Brian will tell you all about what's his little something something?

Speaker 14 (54:31):
Hello, Hello, tug tug.

Speaker 23 (54:36):
Tug tug.

Speaker 3 (54:39):
So Jeff is going to Australia for the mostly the
month of November and going to see a bunch of shows.
I mean you kind of have to if you're going
to Australia, right, Like, I can't just go for a week.
That's what everybody says. Well, no, it takes so long
to get there. You're sleeping for the first day to
get jet leg over. I remember we went to Paris
years ago. When we it was like early evening, I think,

(55:04):
and I think we proceeded to sleep for about thirteen
hours and then got up and started dicking around in Paris.
He's gonna go see Lenny kravitzen Jet, He's gonna go
see Casey Musgraves, and he's gonna go see Sharon van
etten Well. I like her a lot. She's dynamite. Casey
Musgraves is foxy, but I don't know much of her music.

(55:24):
But that's Sharon van etten Man. I think she's great.
She got sunkled Afterlife. It's dynamite. I don't know if
that's new, but I like what she's doing. Man. She's
from Jersey and I think her parents are famous, right.
Isn't her dad like a director or something or maybe
not any who.

Speaker 8 (55:44):
I don't know.

Speaker 3 (55:47):
So yeah, I made sure that you know, people hit
me up and go, hey, I'm gonna travel. I would
like to tag something with an alancocktro sticker like that
Ryan Dude did right when he was in Maine. There
was that guardrail that was over and stickers and the
added ours to it. Speaking of Australia, by the way,
since Jeff is going there, I was reading that Australia

(56:09):
their rainforests are in bad shape. Specifically, they're releasing more
carbon into the atmosphere than they absorb and obviously that
ain't good. It's backwards. It can't come as a shock
a big picture to anybody, but you know they tropical
rainforests in Australia and you go, well, they're out there

(56:31):
in the middle of nowhere. Well not to the Australians,
arenar I believe is what they said the news first. Keith,
I been in the Koch kimin now this. I can't
do an Australian accent. I think you can. I can't.
I could never nail it. Yeah, I could never do
what everybody does. Mary Santora does a fantastic she would

(56:55):
be ausy mayor uh, just nail that accent because it
is a little bit more nuanced and just a variation
on an English accent. Anyway, Australia's tropical rainforest. The reason
that this is of note is that they have become
the first in the world to release more carbon than
they absorb. For you, climate change deniers, I don't know,

(57:18):
read some science and it'll be explained to you. Rainforests
are usually, I believe the technical term they call them
carbon sinks because they just suck up emissions, right, But
this has been flipped upside down. Now they normally suck
up way more than they emit. The Australian rainforests are

(57:40):
going the other way, and so Arnar, said doctor Hannah
Carl of Western Sydney University. Another doctor said, rnar I
secken that are nor seeking. I seek in that seeking
that emotion. Patrick Emir, senior author, described the results as

(58:05):
quote Arnar now per capita, you know, Australia, most of
that continent isn't even inhabited, but they are one of
per capita, one of the biggest polluters in the world, Australia.
But because they're not run by people trying to live

(58:25):
in the eighteenth century, they're like, well, let's try to
do some things to maybe, you know, mitigate that. And
but so far Criike indeed, Criike, indeed, one of the
local contabulary in charge of keeping an eye on that
one of these things was quoted as saying arnar bad

(58:45):
news for everyone involved.

Speaker 4 (58:47):
So congratulations to them.

Speaker 3 (58:53):
We had a good run. I don't know what they
enjoyable would while it lasted? Allen, I'm sixty two and
you got me all torqued up. I'm gonna steal some
pumpkins from these rich folks, and I'm gonna go smash
him on the hill. How about that Rob, He's sixty
two years young and he's gonna go old man some pumpkins.

(59:18):
He's gonna purloin some gourds.

Speaker 4 (59:20):
Is it too on the nose to play the Smashing
Pumpkins wild doing?

Speaker 2 (59:24):
So?

Speaker 3 (59:24):
Yes? It is okay. Nevertheless, well what would you like?
I mean, I'm happy to oblige. It wouldn't have occurred
to me. Zero zero, I think is their best song.
To me, Zero is the straw the pink starburst of
the Smashing Pumpkins discography Shrub Rocket It's also great.

Speaker 4 (59:46):
It's uhh yeah, Oh you know what I like is rocket.

Speaker 3 (59:51):
Rocket might be a good one for uh Smashing Pumpkins.
Rocket's good. I like these guys when they rocked, you know.
Billy Corgan is a very thoughtful, introspective, melodic young man,
and so some of it can get a little navel gazy,
but I like them on they.

Speaker 20 (01:00:07):
Rock this.

Speaker 4 (01:00:14):
First leend you mean Billy Corgan, You're struck by how
goddamn tall the guy cannot God, he's tall even without
those boots and a very perfect shaped head.

Speaker 3 (01:00:27):
Yeah, and that bald weirdness he's got going on. It's
just a bomp and just picture yourself, just slow bulls
who smashing pumpkins on the road. Yeah, it was this
in singles. What was one in singles? I'm not sure.
I don't remember.

Speaker 16 (01:00:46):
Huh.

Speaker 3 (01:00:50):
It's a good song. I do like that Gish album Boy,
that's really good with I Am One and Rhinoceros on
it and Siva and those are good. Freaking really like
this band, man, I really really do. Same. Jimmy Chamberlain
once he got himself kind of squared away, right he was,
he had a bad heroin problem, but he's such an

(01:01:11):
inventive drummer. Dare I say, prolific? Alf Man, You also
have to give it up for what I mean, all
art is timing, especially music, but you really got to
give it up for as successful as these guys were
with Billy Corgan's voice. Yeah right, I mean if this

(01:01:32):
was a cappella. You'd be like, Jesus, get the hell
out of here. But man, it worked. Body matched what
he was doing.

Speaker 4 (01:01:38):
That voice matches that pumpkins sound perfectly too, you know
what I mean, the way he plays.

Speaker 8 (01:01:42):
And.

Speaker 3 (01:01:45):
Yeah, they were pretty good. That was my daughter's first concerts.
We took it to see Green Day and the Pumpkins
in Pittsburgh last fall. I've seen them a few times.

Speaker 4 (01:01:53):
I will say, if there's one eighty bitting negative, I
can say anything about the Pumpkins. At this point, when
Billy comes out still in that like moon man type
uncle Fester thing, it's it's odd.

Speaker 3 (01:02:06):
Now it's sort of reached that point where just just
wear the flat brim cap billion, you know what I mean, like,
just just do that. Yeah, but I get it, well,
you know what, I don't want to put him in
uh you know, uh understanding recently your don't get me
in more trouble with this Eddieveder thing. Wow, I was
just gonna say, Eddie Vedder and the hat thing, what

(01:02:28):
do you want Billy Corgan to be caught so much hate?

Speaker 4 (01:02:31):
My God, between that and my my rant about Halloween,
people like he's ready to set me a.

Speaker 3 (01:02:37):
Blaze because you were flipping out. You didn't like Eddie. Listen,
these are just matters of taste. Rob didn't like Eddie
Vedder's choice of hats. No, I think, at the end of.

Speaker 4 (01:02:45):
The world dumb. That's all but it. But again, it's
just my opinion. Everybody has one holes, that's right. I
just share mine publicly. Opinions are like butttholes. I get
paid for mine.

Speaker 3 (01:03:02):
I can scratch mine on camera. There you go. Yeah,
I can put my finger all the way into my
opinion up to the third knuckle. Rob, I ain't trying
to flex on you all the way in my opinion. Yeah,
that's right. Yeah, Alan, if you guys can find a

(01:03:24):
bed bug eating mouse, you might have a whole new
iHeart food chain being born. Yeah, we got a mouse.
We don't have bugs, so bed bugs gone. But that
was doom Mike. Yeah, it's a recurring I don't want
to think about that ever. Again. I was going through
this this morning before I took my daughter to school.

(01:03:45):
She got real curious about midges because we live a
few blocks from the lake and they're especially prevalent there
near water. And I know nothing about midges other than
they're everywhere and they're really annoying. I didn't know what
they were, and she's like, I don't even think that.
I heard they don't even have mouths because their life
cycle is so short, and I think that's probably true.
I think they might just, you know, they eat algae
or blood of animals something that I don't know, but

(01:04:08):
I guess Amidge is just kind of a fly. I
didn't know what it was. But I don't know if
mice eat bed bugs either. But to this person's point,
if those two areas of the ecosystem collide here at
iHeart Cleveland, who knows what will happen. I don't want

(01:04:29):
to think about any of it. All right, doesn't exist anymore.
Knock on wood, all gone, all gone, all gone? Uh
huh yeah, well, Alan, can we hear Billy Corgan on
a roller coaster again? I mean that is pretty good, right.
I never even knew that Billy Corgan was such a
fun seeker. You know, when you talk to him, he
can be a real uh you know, in the press,

(01:04:52):
he could be a stickler, But if you actually get
a one on one with a guy, he's he'd done
this show many times over the years, and he's quite
quite charming going over that top. Yeah, that's pretty good.

(01:05:15):
That's what the internet was for. Yes, the simplest, dumbest crap.
We just happened to do an audio version of it.

Speaker 4 (01:05:21):
And then there's the dumb the one would nickel back
and it's got Chad Kroger making his dumb face and
he's holding up the photograph but it has a graph
in it, and it just says, look at this graph,
and it makes me laugh every single time, the exact same.

Speaker 3 (01:05:36):
I haven't heard that. I've heard pants feet and I've
played pants feet.

Speaker 4 (01:05:38):
Yeah, it's photograph and they just took photo out of it,
and he goes, look at this graph and I love
it and it makes me laugh.

Speaker 3 (01:05:49):
It's so dumb. The media team looking at our weekly
analytics is what the.

Speaker 4 (01:05:56):
And he just stands here smiling when that dumb look
on this. It doesn't take much for me, man, I'm
telling you no things like that.

Speaker 3 (01:06:06):
That's where I need it. Yeah, Alan midges are a
sign of a healthy lake Erie ecosystem. I'll take your
word for it. I don't know if those words have
ever been put together before, healthy lake Erie ecosystem. I've
actually heard that the algae blooms. Maybe it's getting better.
I mean it's, you know, like it's supposed to be.

Speaker 4 (01:06:27):
When you see them, it's like it's a good thing
that the lake is doing what it's supposed to be doing,
and that's why they have those bitches are out there.

Speaker 24 (01:06:33):
So boys, I don't have much today. So question is Alan,
for real, what's your new car? I know you pretend
you're not a car guy, but just pretend for a
little bit. Your ones made you money. It's got the miles,
it's beat. What's your next ride?

Speaker 2 (01:06:52):
All right?

Speaker 3 (01:06:53):
I love you bitch. Oh that's my favorite takeaway from
the Kevin Gate show. I love you bitch. There's a
lot in there. I didn't understand. I pretend I'm not
a car guys. I always said I'm not. And I
didn't get the ones making your money. I don't know
about that. I think he said you sat on like
you've got your car so long.

Speaker 4 (01:07:11):
At this point, it's like it's it's it's pay, it's
it's done its job for you, I.

Speaker 3 (01:07:15):
Guess, but I want to you still be this well.
I want to drive it until I can't, you know
what I mean. It's when I take it in. I've
spent about four grand on it in the last couple
of weeks, just kind of getting various things fixed. And
every time I take it in, you know, the people
at Conrades Comrades, the guy goes, Jesus, this car looks
like it's never driven. It's in amazing shape for having
two hundred and twenty five thousand miles on I'm like, well,

(01:07:36):
I do, I do take good care. I'm not hard
on my car. Is hard on on my cars, so
I whatever money I'm spending on it would still be
less than what I'd be paying for a new car.
So now I'd be lying if I said I hadn't
really thought about it recently, because in the ten years
that I've had my car, every base model cars now

(01:08:00):
or rolling computers. So it's like, you know, it will
be I'm sure interesting down the line, but I'm hoping
I can get another couple years. I mean, is that
too much to ask? I think so? You think so?
Twenty twenty thousand miles a year. Basically I don't make
that constant, right, I don't make that constant trip back
and forth to Michigan to see my kids the way

(01:08:20):
that I did when they were little. I was going
there like every other week, and I was putting tons
of miles in my car. But on average, you're talking
maybe to I got two hundred and twenty five thousand
miles in this car. Now it's ten years old, it's running,
it's in good shape. There's nothing hanging off of there's
nothing rattling, there's not you know what I mean.

Speaker 4 (01:08:35):
It's it's solid. It's a heavy order. Another two years
and here's the thing, man, like you look at I
could get it to two sixty maybe, I think, of course,
you can do anything you want. It's just how much
are you going to put into it to get it there.
That's where it starts getting tough. I understand I'm doing
that bad. Brand is like yeah, but on the upper
side of what that car is worse.

Speaker 3 (01:08:54):
I guess. But that's still less than what i'd be
paying if I had a car payment. Agree what I mean? Like,
I haven't had a car payment in a way, and
so I really like that. But a car.

Speaker 4 (01:09:02):
Payment to me is just it's just a bill, Like
it's just it's matter, But it's a bill I don't have,
haven't had for a couple of years. But you're writing
checks at four grand. So if you're doing four grand, right,
break that out over the course of a year, how
much is your car payment?

Speaker 3 (01:09:17):
Yeah? I guess you know when you know you're right
when it when it gets to the point where those
when those when those kind of repair payments get more
and more frequent, then I got to go, all.

Speaker 4 (01:09:26):
Right, you're four hundred almost four hundred dollars a month, right,
and say three hundred and fifty dollars a month right
now you've put in the last year in a year car. Yeah,
that's when you start looking at it like a right,
I guess I gotta get a car pay Yeah, I'll
figure it out.

Speaker 3 (01:09:37):
But to his question, I haven't really given it a
lot of thought. I like, when I say I'm a
car guy, I mean I like cars. I don't need
a Bronco your Sedania. I think there's something in my brain,
for whatever reason, those crossover vehicles to me, there's something
feminine about them, and I don't know what. And again

(01:09:58):
that's not something that's like really important to me. I
like Sedan's. I like cars, and so that's where my
default goes. So it's you know, I work with Rich Claven.
When the time comes, I'll hit him up and we'll
figure something out and it'll be great. But in the meantime,

(01:10:19):
I'm gonna see yeah, because listen, let's face it, when
it's time to get rid of this car, it'll have
no trading value at all.

Speaker 4 (01:10:25):
Yeah, but yeah, it might throw you a couple bucks,
of course, And again that's that's for the banks benefit.
That's just making it look good on paper. He traded
us in a car and gave him fifteen hundred bucks
for it and added it to the sticker.

Speaker 3 (01:10:39):
That's it's gonna sound like when I traded a horn.

Speaker 12 (01:10:42):
Uh huh.

Speaker 8 (01:10:45):
Allen Carr Show one call the Allan Cox Show.

Speaker 2 (01:10:53):
He's your microphone. So you think your power phone's smarter?
Your idiot?

Speaker 17 (01:11:00):
One six five seven eight one double oh seven or
one eight hundred three four eight one double oh seven.

Speaker 3 (01:11:50):
Oh Hey there three five one nine two Send me
a text. Now you can watch the show our YouTube channel.
Listen wherever you are on me I heeart ready w
app Alan. My boyfriend listens to your show religiously and
has for years. I'm hoping to surprise him with some stickers. Now,

(01:12:12):
how can I send her stickers and really surprise this
young man. How about that? Like but like a.

Speaker 4 (01:12:22):
Mushroom capa would you include with the stickers?

Speaker 3 (01:12:25):
Probably the Yeah, how about that a little token of
my appreciation. Yeah, just email me your dress. That's fine,
I'll send him up. I just had to order more stickers,
by the way, I got cleaned out of them. Boy,
I got like a couple left, but I got more
on the way. So I'm ordering them with more frequency
than I have in the past. So if you are

(01:12:46):
somebody who has emailed me recently, I sent out about
seventeen envelopes this morning, and we'll send out more when
I get them. When I get this next shipment of them. Hey, you,
your Cavalier's are often until wins and that's when they
will begin the regular season, but in New York, and
they'll play Brooklyn on Friday night and then they'll be

(01:13:07):
back home. Here you go, wait a little bit longer
week from Sunday, the twenty sixth, is when the home
opener happens. I will have another pair of tickets for
you tomorrow around three ten of that opening night. Of course,
they get all kinds of fun stuff planned now, at
least of which everybody gets that home opener, tip off
t shirt and rally towel. They're taking on the bucks.

(01:13:28):
The Bucks of Mealy Walker Monsters have their home opener
this Friday night. I got that four pack coming up
here for you in a bit. The first five thousand
fans get the Monster's tote bag. So let's say you're
walking around and you have many things to tote and

(01:13:49):
you're tired, frankly of just holding them clumsily in your arms.
Well then you can get one maybe at the Monsters game.
Email from Bonnie onwards. For Progressive Insurance for many years,
you get big headquarters here in Northeast Ohio, and the
company celebrates Halloween every year in a big way. Nearly

(01:14:11):
every employee dresses up. Contests are held to determine the
best individual and group costumes. Employees with young children bring
them into trick or treat up and down the cubicle aisles.
It was always entertaining to me, but the distractions were
terrible for our productivity. Rob you're getting off light buddy

(01:14:31):
with just the decorations. Now, I guess compare that to
the fact that when they do the highest employee satisfaction
rate of companies in Northeast Ohio, Progressive is always number one.
So people who work for Progressive, according to these surveys
and things, love working for that company. And something like this,

(01:14:52):
which can be very popular with people because it makes
things feel less formal or you know whatever. Maybe that
has something to do with it. Maybe, and I'm just
floating an idea here, maybe morale that this company would improve.
I have to think that that's part of her motivation

(01:15:15):
for doing that. Hey, maybe just a small cosmetic change
like this might be something that could improve the Esprie
de core, you know, in the aftermath of us losing
more colleagues. Sure that makes up for it. Well, that
makes up but I mean, you know, a little mental victories.
I guess maybe. Sure, I gotta I gotta make myself

(01:15:37):
a note to bring her one of my humane mouse traps.
Sorry I misspelled that it's a human mouse trap, did I?
Did I not say that properly? It's a human mouse trap.
It's called a mouth. You have to eat the mouse. Yep,
sit there with peanut butter on your tongue. Yes, wait,
I do that anyway, Hey, humane mouse trap. Yeah, I'm

(01:16:00):
really surprised, and I'm sure it'll change as it gets colder.
But it's been chilly overnight, you know what I mean,
It's been like upper forties, low fifties, and that's usually
when the rodents will get it inside try to warm
up a little bit. But the last couple of days
I have gotten neither a garage mouse nor an attic mouse.
I'm very surprised. And now it's like part of the routine.

Speaker 2 (01:16:21):
You know.

Speaker 3 (01:16:21):
My daughter's like, we gotta check the attic. Oh yeah,
I gotta get up there, pull out the pull out
the thing.

Speaker 2 (01:16:29):
I go.

Speaker 3 (01:16:29):
Nope, a little door on the end is still down,
so nothing got trapped in there. Unless let's hope that
they don't figure out a way to work around these
humane traps. I mean, there really is no Their weight
is what opens the when they climb inside to get
some of that delicious peanut butter. Their weight is what
trips you know, the end of the trap to close,

(01:16:53):
and there's air holes in it. Obviously you just go
and then I have the added thing now is that
I have to drive it to like the nearby woods
or something and let it go. So it's just more
work for me, rob more work for me. But I'm
doing it in the interests of the flora and the fauna.
I guess in my neighborhood. Hey, you want to feel

(01:17:17):
good story. Everybody could use a feel good story. How
about an eighty year old woman who just set an
iron Man record iron Woman record, woman named Natalie Grabou
who didn't even learn to swim until she was fifty nine.
You know, I don't swim, and I wouldn't drown, but
I'm certainly not somebody who goes and swims. And this

(01:17:40):
woman just completed an iron Man at eighty years old.
She's a grandmother from New Jersey. She's the oldest woman
to ever finish the iron Man. She was the only
competitor in her age group, which is eighty to eighty four. Well,
I mean, that's my betches.

Speaker 4 (01:17:58):
She was probably the only person in the sixty five
to seventy age group two.

Speaker 3 (01:18:04):
She was the only one in the sixty five to
one twenty age group rise. She crossed the finish line
in sixteen hours forty five minutes on a day when
more than sixty of the athletes failed to complete the race.
There's a seventeen hour cutoff time, so she was cutting
it real close. You got to do the Iron Man
in seventeen hours? What's your time on the Iron Man? Rob?

Speaker 4 (01:18:28):
You did it in like four hours, didn't you. No, No,
it was a little on the longer side. I think
you s something like forty nine hours something like that
if you add up everything I've ever done. So let's see,
I'm forty seven. I still haven't swam that much. Uh huh,
probably never ridden a bike that far all in. Yeah,
so we'll say it took me about forty seven years.

Speaker 3 (01:18:49):
Mean wait, wait, wait, over the course of your life,
you've never ridden a bike, a cumuluve this length of
an iron Man? What is the what's the bike in
an iron Man? You're running files or something? I mean, okay, no, sorry,
A two and a half mile swim, that's what I
was thinking of. A one hundred and twelve mile bike ride.
If you had a marathon run and this was more

(01:19:10):
than a thousand feet of elevation, I've definitely not run
a marathon in my life. No, but you do you
think that you together, you think that over the course
of your life you have ridden one hundred and twelve
miles on a bike. I bet you have.

Speaker 4 (01:19:25):
I mean I was on a bike every day when
I was a kid, so probably, but I don't know, man,
that's a long way. Like do I think I rode
from here to Columbus? Maybe over the course of your life. Maybe,
I don't know. I mean that's a long way, dude. Yeah,
And I rode a bike every day for years, right,

(01:19:46):
ten years, whatever, But that's a lot like I rode
in my neighborhood and went to like sand dunes and
stuff like, I don't She did it in under seventeen hours,
That's what I mean. And I definitely have not. I
don't know if I've ever run the length of a marathon.

Speaker 3 (01:20:02):
Here's the craziest part. The woman is three hundred and
twenty five pounds. No, I'm kidding. Ah, she's quite impressed.

Speaker 25 (01:20:08):
And we want to introduce you to eighty year sold
Natalegal Bow from New Jersey, who became the oldest woman
What sucks.

Speaker 3 (01:20:16):
By the way, if you're watching this, it wasn't even
a smooth finish because what happened to her is what
happened to us. We were hosting the Monsters game for
MMS night. Oh she almost the carpet bunched up. No,
she fell. She gets to the finish there and she
falls because the carp alshoti on the carpet bunches of very.

Speaker 25 (01:20:35):
Beginning, and we want to introduce you to eighty year
sold natalegal Bow from New Jersey, who became the oldest
woman ever to cross the line at the Ironman World.

Speaker 3 (01:20:45):
Championships in ConA. Imagine if she had done this and
then broke a hip. I was falling on the carpet.
The poor old.

Speaker 4 (01:20:51):
Bitch makes it through an entire iron Man and breaks
a hip, crossing the line just for the photo.

Speaker 11 (01:20:56):
Op.

Speaker 3 (01:20:57):
Oh, could you imagine this? We get ruling.

Speaker 25 (01:21:01):
One hundred and forty point six mile race is a
test of willpower and endurance. A two point four mile
rough water swim to a one hundred and twelve mile
bike race follneled by a full marathon twenty six point
two miles, and she finished it in an incredible time
of under seventeen hours.

Speaker 4 (01:21:20):
That is crazy. And she stands up and just to walk,
and then you can tell she's old. You know, she's
like Christ. But again that you think.

Speaker 3 (01:21:29):
The adrenaline is pushing you for a while.

Speaker 4 (01:21:30):
Maybe, I mean, that's incredible. Eighty years old man. Yeah,
in under seventeen hours, I'll be dead, like eighty. Like
that's going to be a tough putt. She's winning the
iron Man, Well not if you start training now, iron Woman, iron.

Speaker 3 (01:21:46):
Men, iron Men's iron Men. Maybe if you start training
now you can avoid that. Right, Hi, I'm Rob. Have
we met? Hey? She didn't start swimming until fifty nine.
She said, it's never too late to learn, Rob. You
can teach an older dog some new tricks. She'd only
been swimming for twenty one years. You can teach an

(01:22:09):
old woman to swim, but you.

Speaker 4 (01:22:10):
Can't teach her to cross a start finish line with
a carpet.

Speaker 3 (01:22:14):
In the way. Oh god. She trained for two hours
a day for months leading up to the race, and
the carpeting wrinkled there, and she's like, my foot got
caught and I tripped and fell. God, it sucks. You're
trying to do one of those smooth You're the only
person in your age group you finish an iron Man, Okay,
no one's gonna take that away from you, obviously, And

(01:22:37):
you trip on the carpet. It's like falling in the shower.
The previous record holder was a woman named Sherry Gronenfeld,
who at seventy eight, was the oldest iron Man finisher.
In twenty twenty two, the oldest person ever to finish
the race, I won't surprise you is Japanese Hiromu Inada

(01:22:57):
at age eighty five. A few years ago. This chickstill
was a chance. Yeah, noting that it keeps your strong
both mentally and physically. Eighty how about that? And it's
got to take on a different ten or two. You know,
older people will always kind of chastise younger people for

(01:23:18):
what they perceive is maybe a lack of motivation or
you know, being jaded prematurely, or cynicism or whatever. Imagine
your grandmother just finished an iron Man. I mean, there's
no way to ignore that. No, right, you can't be
like Granma. You don't know what you're talking about. She's like,
you're sitting over here with your your you know, one

(01:23:39):
hand on your pants and the other one on your
Nintendo switch. You doing way more fun than a there
than iron Man, especially if it's the new Nintendo Switch.

Speaker 4 (01:23:49):
That'd be even better. If you say at that you
got the hand down the payath. I mean, it does
sound like a good time. That sounds like a great time. Yeah,
I me two things at the same time.

Speaker 3 (01:23:57):
Screw you, Granny, My goodness, screw you granny. Talented man.

Speaker 7 (01:24:05):
Can't that's Spider Man black seventh did Iron Man?

Speaker 3 (01:24:13):
There you go? Well, biodome callback. Uh, guys could barely
keep it together. That's how you know the movie has
no script.

Speaker 4 (01:24:21):
Uh.

Speaker 3 (01:24:22):
Yeah, So an eighty year old woman finished that Iron Man.
Congratulations to her.

Speaker 4 (01:24:26):
Somebody commented, imagine if the carpet caused her to go
over the seventeen hour March, she wouldn't just a crawl
forward like seventeen oh one, like like that the girl
coming out of the television in the ring. Oh, that
would be so good, I mean bad, Sorry, I mean

(01:24:49):
that would be terrible awful.

Speaker 3 (01:24:54):
Allan. Another reason that lake Erie is so clean is
because of the zebra muscles. I'll tell you what those
zebras they are ripped. Oh one zebra muscle filters almost
two liters of water every day.

Speaker 4 (01:25:07):
That is Sean out there in Vestberg, pick On. I
thought Lake Erie wasn't very clean.

Speaker 8 (01:25:16):
Go outside, ner, get out, go.

Speaker 3 (01:25:20):
I think that there are efforts to clean it up.
I think it is in much better shape than it
has been. You know, the algae blooms are you know,
they have all kinds of problems, Like Erie is quite
shallow thanks to those zebra muscles. Things are getting better though, Yeah,
that's what Sean says.

Speaker 8 (01:25:36):
Go outside, ner, get out.

Speaker 7 (01:25:39):
Go.

Speaker 3 (01:25:43):
Jesus Alan, I thought I was cheap. You're out four
thousand dollars in a ten year old car. You make
at least twice what I do, and I can afford
a lease. How do you know what he makes? Spoiler aler,
I probably make three times what you do.

Speaker 11 (01:25:56):
Bro.

Speaker 4 (01:25:57):
By the way, it's got nothing to do with the lease.
I gotta tell you.

Speaker 3 (01:26:01):
A lease is the one at least a car years ago.
But I was still making that trip all the time
to Michigan, so I got screwed in the mileage. Whatever.
It's so people I know who are real good with
money and no cars all they're all anti lease, and
I go. That's the one thing I don't understand is
everybody who tells you you buy things that appreciate, you
rent things that depreciate, right, yep, I mean your house

(01:26:24):
isn't really you know, a house is like a state
of mind. People would buy a house.

Speaker 4 (01:26:29):
You know.

Speaker 3 (01:26:29):
People get me a hard time because I say, you
don't own your house. The bank owns your house, right,
so it's like an aspirational purchase. You don't really you know,
if you wanted your money to go farther, you'd probably
pay rent and sock the rest of it into like
a IRA or something. Yes, however, people want to own
a house. Okay, fine, But what I don't understand. And
people are like, oh, you should buy a car, not lease.

(01:26:51):
I'm like, why it depreciate? It famously depreciates when you
drive it off a long lease of car. I don't
understand that. Again, my father in law is financial advisor.
He's very anti lease. I go, I don't understand why.
And the you know, the bottom line is always well
you you don't own anything. I go, yeah, but when
you finally own your car, it's worth two thousand dollars, right,

(01:27:12):
so what's the and then what you roll that into
a new car? Like I don't. I just figure I'm
always gonna happen. He doesn't buy new cars either. I mean,
my father law only drives Cadillacs and he doesn't buy
them new, so he just pays cash for him and whatever.
I'm not that guy, So my only experience with a
lease is twenty years ago, and I really got screwed
in the mileage. But my brain goes to I should

(01:27:34):
just lease. That's what I do. What do I care?
Always lease my car? Yeah, what do I care? I'm
always going to have a car payment. I'm one of
those people. Yeah, I don't know that that is confusing
to me. There's probably somebody who could explain that to me,
but I'm like to me that it was always fundamentally
taught to us. If something appreciates, you buy it. If

(01:27:57):
it depreciates, like a car, you don't buy it. Allan,
those lemons starbursts might be a really good bait for
your traps. I mean, I'm not trying to give these
mice diabetes for mees. Yeah, for mess No, I put
a dollop of a peanut butter in there, and boy
that brings all the girls to the yard. They get
right in there. And is Alan's car the ship of

(01:28:23):
theseus if you replace every part of the car is
at the same car. There was a guy who went
viral on TikTok. It was a mechanic. Somebody brought in
a twenty seventeen Toyota cameray that had eighteen hundred miles
on it, and he's going through this car, it's pristine.
It looks like it just came off the lot. And
he's like, if the car was just sitting there, not
being driven, it would look very even then it would

(01:28:44):
look very different than this. He's like, this car looks
like it just came off the line, and it has
eighteen hundred miles on it. It's from twenty seventeen. And
he's like, I can't he like lifted up the hood,
you know, looked like they had just spit shined everything.

Speaker 4 (01:29:00):
I don't know, Stephen Wright joke. What's that if somebody
broke into your house and replaced every single thing inside
of it with an exact replica.

Speaker 3 (01:29:08):
Oh, I don't know. I mean yeah, well, yeah, I
don't know. Again, I'm not a car guy. Uh, but
I do appreciate his uh Greek mythology references.

Speaker 4 (01:29:23):
Right, theseus paradox? It was was the term ship the
theseus Right, It's just a thought experiment. If you replaced
every single piece one by one, would you have the
same thing?

Speaker 3 (01:29:41):
And Rob you know how I love thought experiments. Ah
Me and Barry Obama, we cannot get enough of those the.

Speaker 10 (01:29:51):
Carr Show on one.

Speaker 13 (01:29:53):
Of course, when someone's heels his stuff from the company fridge,
he needs that energy for.

Speaker 8 (01:30:04):
When he boops in their gas tank. Alan Cox on one.

Speaker 26 (01:30:11):
Seven WMMS, I got more money for you here about
eight or nine minutes.

Speaker 3 (01:30:24):
Four point thirty is the next keyword. We grab one
thousand dollars from the buzzard bookie. Hey, we do our
metal show, by the way, on Saturday night. These guys
are awesome British bank called Ocean's Eighth Alaska. You played
them before. Saturday night, right around ten o'clock, do a
show called two Hours to Midnight. And it's me and
it's Corey Rodick and it's Pat Butler, and each of

(01:30:47):
us throw in a bunch of songs that we want
to play for you, brand new metal, a lot of classics,
a lot of local stuff. If you're somebody making noise
in northeast Ohio or regionally, just send us your stuff.
And saturdayday night we played back for you. So ten
o'clock we do two Hours to Midnight and we'd love
to have you along here on MMS. Oh, who are

(01:31:09):
we going to play this Saturday night? I'm glad you
asked playing brand new music from Snobia. This woman from Sydney,
Australia who does why I call her Lady sleep Token,
but does some pretty wild stuff. Play some new stuff
from her, play a request for Vurials. Great band from Philly,

(01:31:30):
play some classic d O. There's brand new Black Label Society,
a lot of good stuff. So Saturday night, if you're
into metal, so are we, and we'll do two hours
to midnight for you. So I gave away tickets. Congrats
to whoever won the Monsters tickets. But I was giving
away tickets for the Monsters game, and I'll have the

(01:31:52):
final four pack for you tomorrow afternoon. Right around this time,
they're playing the Lehigh Valley Phantoms in Pennsylvania for the
home opener, and I've gotten a series of postcards in
the mail addressed to the show, postmarked Lehigh Valley, Pennsylvania.

(01:32:13):
There is no name on these cards. They're only distinguishing
features are that they are numbered in the sequence. They
look like very old postcards, and at first I thought
maybe they were replicas of old postcards. I think they're
old postcards. I mean one of them has the old
ABC network logo on them, and they're handwritten numbered, card

(01:32:36):
number five, card number four, card number three, but the
rest of it remains a mystery. The address to the
show has been printed up and cut off of a
piece of paper and glued to the postcard. It's like this,
and there's a series of those cards and they're numbered

(01:32:56):
and on the front they're just a variety of things.
Keep on is like an old you know, I don't know,
motivational thing. There's a bird, there's a parakeet or something
with a playing card and is you know, Uh, they're
all like old. So I don't know what this mystery is.

(01:33:18):
Unless somebody told me they were sending these and I
missed their email, I don't know what rob. It is
very odd. Yeah, I know they're completely out of the blue,
completely random. But they are postmarked. They're stamped Lehigh Valley, Pennsylvania,
about ten days ago. They all have the same stamp
of October the sixth, and they have come to me

(01:33:38):
out of order, which fine, but I'm curious where these
came from. I don't know if they're being whoever this
is being purposely enigmatic, certainly, hope because that's fun. But anyway,
thanks for thinking of us. I think you way over
postaged these. You know, one of them has one stamp

(01:33:59):
on them and the other ones are all the same size.
One of the other ones has four stamps on it.
So anyway, I don't know where those are from, but
it jogged my memory when I was giving away tickets
for the monsters playing the lee High Valley Phantoms, because
all of these old time he postcards that were sent
to us are stamped the postmark from Lehigh Valley, Pennsylvania.

(01:34:20):
Word is going around online that Ace Freely is at
death's door. Yeah, it looks like he's in bad shape.
He fell and he canceled his tour because he fell
or something at home a couple of weeks ago in
his studio. Yeah, he was in pretty bad shape. And
then what Maynard Keenan posted something that sounded like a memorial.

Speaker 4 (01:34:37):
Yeah, and it says we're told he's been on a
This is according to TMZ, We're told he's been on
a ventilator for some time. He has not gotten better,
So his family is considering turning off life support, perhaps
as soon as Thursday evening.

Speaker 3 (01:34:50):
Wow, Ace is a guy. For what he did to
his body. Ace is another guy you can't believe lasted
this long. Yeah, right, Ace Frehley, all right, prognosis is
prognosis negative rube. That's what they're looking at. One of
your four founding members of Kiss first one too. Did

(01:35:13):
he leave or was he ejected from the band? I
think he was kicked out, okay, because I remember correct.
He couldn't keep it together, right, He was drinking and
doing drugs, and you know the they it is the
Gene and Paul show. I thought that Peter, Chris and
Ace were the partiers. I thought Peter Chris had problems too,
and that's why Gene and Paul kicked them out. Okay,
maybe he was too, but Ace definitely was about Peter Chris.

(01:35:35):
But Ace definitely was. He's freely as seventy four years old,
and he's on a ventilator, so still technically alive, but
it doesn't sound like that's going to be the case
much longer. It was late last month when they had
put a statement out saying that he was fine, but
his doctor said that he shouldn't travel, and so he

(01:35:58):
had canceled the remainder of his You ever seen An
A's Frailey live solo show? I have? Is it as
scatter brained as I assume it might be.

Speaker 2 (01:36:08):
It is.

Speaker 3 (01:36:08):
Yeah, yeah, he's I mean, he's an interesting dude man. Also,
of the four when they did those solo albums, he
was the one with the biggest solo hit, right, New
York Groove, such a good song. That was the biggest
solo hit I think from all those guys, I mean, Peter,
Chris had Beth, but that wasn't That was on a
kiss kish Yeah, back on the New York Groove from

(01:36:33):
not New York Mining Disaster. Nope, He's definitely got that one.
I remember I had the first Frehley's Comet album because
anton Fig played the drums and he had played for
Letterman and I was a huge anton Fig fan. And
a's Fraley just basically put a bunch of guys together

(01:36:56):
for this studio and then he took him out on
the road. But the first and it was it was
made up of just like throwaway rifts from uh, you know,
kiss songs that didn't make it. But the single was
called Breakout and it was pretty good.

Speaker 12 (01:37:08):
Yeah.

Speaker 3 (01:37:52):
Remember breakout from Frehley's comment, this is like.

Speaker 2 (01:37:55):
An old.

Speaker 3 (01:37:57):
Parrot card, drum lake or something that they used for breakout.
But it was Anton Big playing the drums. Another song
about a jail break, Rob. What is it with these
guys who just can't keep their noses clean? The backstory

(01:38:19):
of the song is he saw.

Speaker 27 (01:38:19):
A pumpkin off of our rich guy's sugrin fass.

Speaker 3 (01:38:32):
Yeah, that sounds familiar. It's because it was Eric Carr drums.
There's a bumper I'll play sometimes called the car Jam
that was at the very end of the Kisses Revenge
album after Eric Carr died, and that was part of
what they used for Breakout, that same kind of melody there.
So there was a reason that it was a big
hit because it just hit people right where they wanted

(01:38:54):
to be hit. Where is car Jam? Oh, they're in
nineteen eighty one. That's what they use for breakoup And
then they put out a live album recorded in Chicago
at the Aragon Ballroom late eighties. But yeah, I was
a big Anton fig fan and that's who had gone
out with the Hays Freiley for a while. But anyway,

(01:39:16):
Ayce Frailey is not dead yet, but he is. As
they say at Death's door, the Salmon Moose got him
Rob what says let me see here.

Speaker 4 (01:39:33):
Several social media posts indicating he's already passed. We're told
the seventy eight year old guitar icon is still on
a ventilator as of this afternoon.

Speaker 3 (01:39:42):
But is he still able to play the guitar. I'm
guessing maybe not at the moment. It depends on how
alert he is. Well, you know, sometimes they you know,
when somebody's in a coma. Maybe I know that's not
this situation. He's not a ventilator, so that doesn't sound
like he's he's lucid. But you know, people are in
a coma, they'll say, oh, talk to them. They might
not respond, but they can hear you or something that's

(01:40:04):
familiar to them. So I thought maybe if they were
hoping to change his prognosis, maybe they would put your
guitar in his hands, maybe, you know, and then play
exactly that note. Yeah, he just starts whipping out some
arpeggios and then you know, getting his inner yingvee on

(01:40:27):
and sits bolt upright, Rob, can you envision this? Ace Freeley,
who of course took a stage name. His real name
was Acevich Freely. What was his name Paul or something? Yeah,
Paul Frayley, Paul Daniel Ace Frehley. So there we were

(01:40:48):
just on death watch. Now, so if you had, if
you've been sitting on Ace Frehley in your celebrity death pool,
it looks imminent. Well let's hope maybe not maybe not. No, No,
he could come back, right, Yeah, stranger things have happened,
But he doesn't strike me as a guy who across
the board had been the picture of health. You know

(01:41:09):
what I mean? Oh no, no, no, that's what I mean.
Like he interviewed him years. When you've done that much
damage to your body, even as a younger man, it's
gonna come back and not work out in your favor
when all the dominoes start to fall. Now, I never
talked to his freel That picture.

Speaker 4 (01:41:23):
TMZ has of him is exactly what he looked like
when he came to He was I might have been
wearing that same exact jacket, yeah, you know, the necklace,
the whole nine yards sat down, and you would think
the way that he spoke, it was like you were
talking to Christ like he would The way the things
that he would talk about doing, it was just like wow,

(01:41:46):
what do you mean?

Speaker 3 (01:41:46):
He was very like self aggrandizing. Yeah yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah,
for sure no one of that kicked him out jeans
like that's my job, that's what I do.

Speaker 4 (01:41:55):
Yeah, yeah, no he I mean very recently he said
he taught Eddie how.

Speaker 3 (01:41:59):
To do who you know, those those runs and solo. Well,
wasn't that part of the problem they had with him too,
as they were like, you know, the guy can't say
vertical during shows because he was high or whatever. But
he also was really salty with the fact that he
wasn't a map. I mean, he was a big star
because Kiss was a big deal, but it always seems
salty that he had been kind of unceremoniously kicked out

(01:42:24):
of the band, you know.

Speaker 4 (01:42:25):
Yeah, and minus makeup. I think a lot of people
right wouldn't have known who he was either. You know,
it was after him that the makeup came.

Speaker 3 (01:42:32):
Off, not Vinnie Vincent level of saltiness with respect to
Kiss of Corners. God, he looks like an old woman,
but yeah, so, Ace Frehley on life support. His life
is currently being supported by medical equipment. Did you see
the video of the lady going around TikTok screaming about

(01:42:52):
her gap leather jeans making a fart noise? No, okay,
I mean I know she's doing it for the lolls,
but it's like, I'm on, lady, lady goes viral on TikTok.
She goes, I bought these leather First of all, her voice,
her demeanor, her body language, it's insufferable. I don't know
anything about this woman, but just the way she kind
of presents this whole thing, I'm like, oh my god. Anyway,

(01:43:15):
she bought leather pants from the Gap and then she
found out that, oh my god, look what happens when
I bend over? She says, bend over right, you.

Speaker 6 (01:43:28):
Bet a cow to nace, because I haven't been this
embarrassed since fourth grade when I was playing musical.

Speaker 3 (01:43:36):
All this girl is a lot just from the she's
swinging her hands and she's gesticulating wildly, and you know,
tears of my chair broken. I fell on my bottom. Okay,
because what do you mean.

Speaker 6 (01:43:48):
I'm at a restaurant and I dropped something accidentally and
I go to pick it.

Speaker 3 (01:43:51):
Up and then, no, it's funny, but nobody would bend
down and pick something up with your knees going out
like you're doing squats. That's what she's doing to get
that noise. So funny if she's just farting a yeah, right.

Speaker 8 (01:44:10):
That did not come from my No.

Speaker 3 (01:44:13):
From her, no, no square to quote Kevin Gates, which
one is she okay? Anyway, she's a that's a lot
of sound coming out of a quarter inch speaker. So
she's uh, yeah, she's gone viral because of her allegedly.

(01:44:38):
You know, she's having some fun there with her gap
leather pair, which are not tight by the way. It
looks like they're kind of flared or whatever. But she
is I don't know if she's a big TikTok star.
Don't know was she saying that it was?

Speaker 4 (01:44:50):
It sounded like a fart or a quief a fart
A fart well, I mean because she I think she
pointed to her front, right, she said this did not
come out of my.

Speaker 3 (01:45:00):
I thought she pointed to her front when she said it. Oh,
she got three point one million views on that video
calling out the gap. Thanks a lot, gap. But again,
nobody bends down that way. Oh I've dropped my spoon.
You would lean over, you'd you know, go to a

(01:45:21):
knee or something. You wouldn't be doing a Russian Cossack dance.
I mean, I guess if you did crouch.

Speaker 4 (01:45:28):
It maybe didn't sound exactly like that the first time
she did it, But if you were to crouch, you know,
like just kind of bend down at the way she did,
that could still happen.

Speaker 3 (01:45:38):
Well, according to her, it certainly did. That's precisely with it,
You bet a.

Speaker 6 (01:45:43):
Couch, nae, because I haven't been this embarrassed since fourth grade.

Speaker 3 (01:45:49):
Yes, my chair broken and fell on my bottom.

Speaker 8 (01:45:54):
Okay, because what do you mean.

Speaker 3 (01:45:56):
I'm on a restaurant and.

Speaker 6 (01:45:57):
I dropped something accidentally, and I go to pick it up.

Speaker 9 (01:46:00):
And then.

Speaker 8 (01:46:06):
That did not come from mine?

Speaker 3 (01:46:08):
She points to her bomb, right, did she?

Speaker 4 (01:46:12):
I'm delayed, so I thought she pointed from what I'm seeing,
because she pointed at the front.

Speaker 12 (01:46:17):
Mm hmmm mm hmm, gap.

Speaker 2 (01:46:22):
H m hmm.

Speaker 3 (01:46:27):
That was that one mine? Yeah, that was yeah, I
knew one of them was mine. That was mine. They're
like fingerprints, Rob, you can always tell you They're like
your children. You can always recognize your own, even in
a crowded room.

Speaker 1 (01:46:41):
You go, oh, I miss you, Oh oh, thank you,
it's good to see you.

Speaker 3 (01:47:27):
Lest anyone think that DJ j C is not an
eminently talented young man really doing the Lord's work, there up.

Speaker 4 (01:47:34):
Oh yeah, someone said that that woman's heart queef whatever
it was, sounds like my ducks.

Speaker 3 (01:47:43):
Oh, he was like it does actually, well yeah. One
of the comments was who knew Gap had a collab
with a flac? Well, it's like an old grandpa joke, right,
somebody stepped on a duck? Hey, who stepped on a duck?

Speaker 4 (01:47:59):
Back there, there's a duck that sounds like one of
the best lines ever delivered by Rodney Dangerfield.

Speaker 3 (01:48:05):
Caddy shack yep.

Speaker 4 (01:48:06):
If you don't anything other than land, you only got
a popcorn fun.

(01:52:14):
that red talkback button to leave us messages. Were wolf
us say we supposed to become mgman?

Speaker 4 (01:52:22):
Maybe well, somebody had left a message about something, and
then I don't.

Speaker 3 (01:52:29):
Know what the message was. I don't think that was it. No,
I think it was somebody left a message about, hey,
maybe you should hit Rob with a bunch of like
Halloween songs to get him in the mood. I'm like,
that's not the problem. I people like Halloween. I know
people are taking the ball and running with it, though,
and they should. Look. I get it.

Speaker 4 (01:52:49):
I understand it's not a popular opinion. When you tell
people you work with and things that you hate everything
they're doing. I get a service of their children, right,
I get it. I like Halloween. I like all holidays
just fine.

Speaker 3 (01:53:05):
I do love were Wolf bar mitzvah. Though, boy, I'll
tell you what that is.

Speaker 20 (01:53:09):
A good omits Thusoo SKay supposed to become MG Maiden.

Speaker 3 (01:53:14):
Maybe becoming wolf were.

Speaker 4 (01:53:16):
Wolf omits usoo ski we supposed to become MG Maiden.

Speaker 3 (01:53:21):
Maybe become the great Tracy Jordan. Yeah.

Speaker 8 (01:53:24):
Boy.

Speaker 3 (01:53:24):
A lot of people are leaving me messages, by the way,
speaking of the app that are making me feel a
little bit better about the stay of my car.

Speaker 28 (01:53:29):
Rup Yo, Alan, my daily truck has three hundred and
sixteen thousand miles. It's a It's a Chevy V six
gas twenty thirteen.

Speaker 3 (01:53:41):
Keep it rolling, baby. See truck is different though, I
mean those are made to go a long time, right,
Chevy truck. I mean three hundred and sixteen thousand miles.
I got two hundred twenty five thousand on my Ford Fusion.

Speaker 4 (01:53:51):
I think anything you take care of will go a
long time, but eventually the big things start to fail.

Speaker 29 (01:53:57):
Right.

Speaker 3 (01:53:57):
But this is what I'm saying. I the way I
take care of my car, I'm thinking I could get
maybe a couple more years out of it.

Speaker 4 (01:54:04):
I think you try until it doesn't make sense anymore,
and then you got to send the old gal out
the pasture.

Speaker 3 (01:54:13):
The old gray Mary what she used to be.

Speaker 9 (01:54:17):
Hey, Alan, if you take care of your car like that,
it should last you. We have a twenty seventeen four
Transit Connect van at work and she's got three hundred
and sixty two thousand miles on her and she's still chugging.

Speaker 3 (01:54:30):
Along jug jug. What is that like one of those
sprinter vans or something.

Speaker 4 (01:54:34):
Yeah, these are bigger vehicles, right, Those are made for
the long haul like that.

Speaker 3 (01:54:39):
I have no illusions about. I really don't think I'm
gonna break three hundred thousand miles on this car. I
would love to, because my thought is, if I can
just push this car further down the line runs great.
Are you putting some money into it? Runs great? If
I do have a few more years on a rob
then when it's time for me to legit buy an car,

(01:55:02):
it's the technology will have advanced so far. I'll buy
a flying car. Yeah, and again one driving itself.

Speaker 17 (01:55:11):
Now.

Speaker 3 (01:55:11):
I like driving a car. I don't need a driverless car.
I rented a How many things do we need done
for us? Everything?

Speaker 4 (01:55:20):
No, Yeah, I like driving a car. I rented a
I think Santa Fe Hyundai. Santa Fe is the car
they gave me when I was in Florida to see
my mother. Literally drives itself. Now, my car has that
lane departure and all that stuff, so it'll keep the
car in the lane. But every ten seconds or so,

(01:55:40):
it's like, put your hands back on the wheel. You
don't touch the steering wheels. This car did not do that.
And the basic forty five minute ride from the airport
to my mom's house, I never had to touch the car.
If I wanted to change lanes, I would obviously, but
it gone on its.

Speaker 3 (01:55:57):
Own way control.

Speaker 4 (01:55:59):
Yeah, cruise can and it's set to do you know,
it keeps that distance. It's the adaptive cruise controller, and
then it has the lane departure settings that it keeps
the car in the lanes with all the cameras.

Speaker 3 (01:56:09):
A lot of people, a lot of people get these
cars with all these bells and whistles, and then they
proceed to figure out how they can disable them because
you're constantly getting beeped at and make you know, it's like,
come on, I don't need an alarm to go off.
Every time my car might go a little bit to
the left of the lane. I'm in.

Speaker 4 (01:56:25):
Yeah, car, my car does a lot of that stuff,
but not like that. Man, it was it was really
really cool. My car is impressed again. My car's at
twenty fifteen. I didn't do it, doesn't do any of
that stuff. I got bluetooths and that's all I need.

Speaker 3 (01:56:38):
Frankly, I want to I always think of Campbell Scott
in the movie Singles. His character in that movie was
like an engineer for the city of Seattle. His big
The subplot of that movie is that he was trying
to create He was trying to pitch the Mayor of Seattle.
The great Tom Scarett was the actor. He's trying to
pitch him an idea for a train, commuter train in Singles,

(01:57:02):
and he's been working on this plan and he's got
his deck and he's got all this stuff, and he's
gonna pitch the Mayor of Seattle. And the mayor gives
him like two minutes, kind of a a courtesy lunch,
and he does this whole pitch and the mayor goes.
People like their cars because he's pitched them. He's like, oh,

(01:57:23):
you don't have to drive. He cut on a pollution
early nineties, right, and people pretended to care. He's like, hey,
you cut on pollushi. You give people great coffee, great music,
blah blah blah, and they can sit back and take
the train and the mayor goes. People like their cars.
People like to drive in their cars. That's what I
always think of when they talk about driverless cars. I'm like,
it's convenient, and I'm sure there are plenty of people

(01:57:43):
who will do it. Some people like driving their cars.
They like having their hands on the wheel, working the
pedals and driving their cars. Yeah, and I'm one of
those people. I just like technology, that's all. Like, I
agree with you. I like to be in control, Rob.

Speaker 4 (01:57:57):
Maybe you don't know this about I like to be
in control in every possible situation.

Speaker 3 (01:58:02):
I like to get my hands around everything. I've figuratively
can't take my hands off the wheel of anything that
I'm involved in, So why would I literally take my
hands off the wheel. It's just kind of cool to
be able to do it.

Speaker 9 (01:58:14):
I know.

Speaker 3 (01:58:15):
No, listen, I'm not pooh poohing the novelty of it.
I'm just saying, like, long term, I'm fine driving my
car still. Yeah, that's what we're most used to.

Speaker 4 (01:58:26):
And I love the fact that I still drive a
manual like I enjoy. That's why I enjoy driving my car.
I have a oh, I don't do that. A very
entry level vehicle like my car is nothing, but I
put a million miles on it.

Speaker 3 (01:58:39):
My car's a manual too. I take the gearshift and
I put it from park into reverse rob then I
get out of the parking spot, and then I put
it into drive and then I drive. I get awesome
gas mileage in that car. That's why I bought it.
It's great. Man.

Speaker 4 (01:58:54):
I get on the highway in Medina, sixth gear, let
it go, do not touch the break until I get here,
and it's like forty two miles.

Speaker 3 (01:59:04):
A gall love it. Hey, how about you want to
talk about cars? Boy, Los Angeles, we will fly you
out for our Alter Ego Festival. It's gonna happen in
January back at the Kia Forum in LA It is
the biggest show of its kind. We just happen to
put it on and it's happening in January, and I

(01:59:24):
don't think the tickets are on sale yet, but we've
got trips for you and a pal all this week
to get out there. It's January the seventeenth. It's Green Day,
Cage the Elephant, twenty one Pilots from Columbus, Ohio, Good Charlotte,
Inexplicably Sublime, and a lot of smaller bands that are
real good. The one I like is called Almost Monday,

(01:59:46):
and they're on the bill. And I'm sure you know
there's always eleventh hour announcements on this too, but it's
a lot of fun. We'd love to send you. So
here's the keyword for you to get out there. Good luck.

Speaker 17 (01:59:55):
Now your chance had a trip to our Tineheart Radio
alter Ego. The nationwide keyword rock to the number two
hundred two hundred. You'll get a confirmation text and im
pos standard data and message race apply in this nationwide contest.

Speaker 3 (02:00:09):
That's rock to two hundred two hundred. All right, another
keyword tomorrow at five o'clock. I think we're only doing
this week though that sounds right. Tomorrow I will have
another keyword for you, hopefully getting you out there to
the twenty twenty six Alter Ego Festival at Kia Forum
in lovely and Pastoral Inglewood, California, is a Key Forum

(02:00:34):
is where it's not where the Lakers play, right they
used to They used to play at Forum Is, Yeah,
and now they play at the Staples Center.

Speaker 4 (02:00:41):
Yeah, and Los Angeles. Down tab of a bullet I've
got some food news for you. One of our colleagues
at WTAM caught me in the kitchen today and he said, oh,
I had to report a store this morning, and I
thought of you, and I said really. He said, you've

(02:01:05):
probably heard the story already, and then he proceeded to
tell me and I had not heard the story already.
Smuckers is suing Trader Joe's, saying that they've ripped off
Uncrustables and they haven't even really been that sneaky about it. Smuckers,
of course, out there in Orville, a mother Smucker is
the lady who's out there who anonymously will send me

(02:01:27):
little goodies and treats from time to time. I'm pretty
publicly open about the fact that I love me some uncrustables. Uh.

Speaker 3 (02:01:35):
Smucker sues Trader Joe's, saying that their new peanut butter
and jelly sandwiches are too similar to Uncrustables. Trader Joe's
calls them crustless. No, what do they call them? They
call him? I mean again, this is I get what
they mean. Like, obviously, you know you don't want people
step on your toes. But the concept of an ink,

(02:02:00):
peanut butter and jelly sandwich is that their intellectual property.
Did the Smucker Company develop them?

Speaker 4 (02:02:07):
Well, the shape they did, in the shape of it,
I think is what the thing is, right, Like, it's
the punch out of the center of the bread without
the crust.

Speaker 3 (02:02:13):
So yeah, what do they do with the crust? I
don't know. But I also don't know why kids don't
like crust. My kid is one of those kids. We
had to eat whatever was put in front of us. Now,
it's not that big of a deal because it's like
I eat the crust, I don't care. But like if
my daughter, if we eat something with a garlic bread,
I got to punch out the middle and I'm sitting
there eating crust. Yeah. I was that way when I

(02:02:34):
was a kid too. I think I wonder why kids don't.
Some people go that it's a difference in texture, that's
what it is, Okay, but it's not that different. It's
like it's not like crust is Crunchy and the Muller
the Super super Soft. Anyway, Smucker says that Trader Joe's
peeb and J sandwiches violate Smuckers trademarks. They're based out

(02:02:55):
there in Orville and so the loss it was filed
in federal court in Ohio. Smucker says the round crust
list sandwiches that Trader joe sells have the same pie
like crimp marks on their edges that Uncrustables do, making
them indistinguishable and thereby violating their trademark. Smucker goes, we

(02:03:19):
don't care if other people are selling prepackaged PB and
J sandwiches, but you're using our intellectual property because the
Uncrustable box shows you one of them with a bite
taken out of it, and that's also what's on the
on the front of the Trader Joe's box. Now, I'm

(02:03:40):
not as enamored of Trader Joe's as a lot of
other people are. There's one right by me at Crocker Park.
I think there's only two in the whole areas, one
of the east side, one of the west side. Trader
Joe's is fine, that you know. The produce is okay.
They make a fine two buck Chucks okay, although I
think it's five bucks now. You know, they make a
fine trail mix, but live and die by Trader joe.

(02:04:01):
So there's probably the fact that a Smucker would bring
his lawsuit probably means there's a lot of people buying
a reasonable facsimile over there at Trader Joe's. Now, the
kicker of the story is they want a judge in
this case to require Trader Joe's to destroy all of

(02:04:22):
their product. They want them to deliver all products and
packaging to Smucker so they can so Smucker can destroy them.
Just a giant funeral pyre of uncrustable replicas. Trader Joe's
based out of California, and they said that, you know,

(02:04:47):
Trader Joe's will argue, hey, listen, crimps around the edges
is not a big deal, right, Their sandwiches also appear
to be a little bit more square than uncrustables, so
they could argue, well, not the same. Uncrustables were invented
by two people in the mid nineties in Fergus Falls, Minnesota.

(02:05:09):
Hard to believe that it wasn't until the mid nineties
and somebody said, what if we enclose a peanut butter
and jelly sandwich, and then Smucker bought their company and
got the patents. You know, if you're a couple of
people that have an idea and a bigger company buys
your company, you're not getting even a fraction of the

(02:05:32):
money that they're eventually gonna get right to cutch you
a nice big check. I'm curious what they made for it,
those two people from Fergus Falls, Minnesota. But it wasn't
easy to mass produce them. And this is part of
Smucker's lawsuit too. They're like, look, we've spent a billion
dollars over twenty years trying to perfect this because they're frozen,

(02:05:54):
so you got to they have to be able to thaw.
And then they're like good to eat, right. A lot
of things you let them thaw, and they're just kind
of there. These I don't know, there's the reason I
like them. And so this is gonna be, mark my words,
rop the legal battle of the century. You think all

(02:06:18):
that Trump nonsense is going through the courts right now,
You think that's something that's gonna change the direction of
this country. Sure, but not in the same way as
Smucker v. Trader Joe's is gonna be Hey, Lisa, oh good,
Hey Lisa, say thank you, Lisa.

Speaker 4 (02:06:40):
I'm glad we spent all this time talking to people.
And then yeah. Also in Food News, she was, I
think you would have enjoyed that, Alan, She she was,
I imagine I would. She was explaining to me and
asked me a few times if it made sense that
they actually make the encrustable and around shape so that
they're not wasting crust, and I said, oh, thank you

(02:07:05):
for thank you. I said, I will leave the product
design to the professionals.

Speaker 3 (02:07:13):
I just want to stick them in the face.

Speaker 4 (02:07:15):
They are good, eat them up right, That's all I want.

Speaker 3 (02:07:21):
I got no skin in the product design game. But Smucker,
to their point, a billion dollars, imagine sinking a billion
dollars over two decades into perfecting that. That means you're
selling an ask ton of these things. Well, they're so good.
They're delicious. A peanut butter and jelly sandwich in general
is so good. Yeah, I agree. Also in Food News,

(02:07:46):
the big combo of the summer and the fall ice
cream and red wine. Why it's gone viral? Apparently it's delicious.
Now I like a drink called a kalamo cho which
is red wine and coke, and it is delicious. It's
a great pool drink. I got blato in Florida years

(02:08:06):
ago on Kalamocho's in the pool and they are delicious.
I'm sure that's a drink that just came from people
looking around a table and going what's left over. Oh,
there's half a coke and there's half a glass of
red wine, and you put them together and voila.

Speaker 4 (02:08:21):
But it's like a Spanish drink, and I like it
a lot. I told you the old Portuguese guys man,
they do red wine and orange soda. Right, that's where
I grew up. That was always there, red wine and
orange soda.

Speaker 3 (02:08:31):
Yeah, it's called Elfanta ice cream and red wine is uh.
Of course, it's the providence of gen Z. They call
it a wine float, probably developed by people who have
it's wine a clock as their kitchen motif. But okay,

(02:08:51):
it's just a straight ahead like a vanilla. This looks
like vanilla. But of course you know I liked to
jush mine up, rob so I'll have like a scatto
and some New York super fudge chunk yum. It just
sounds gross. Red wine and vanilla ice cream? Yum? Like
I love wine. I drink a lot of wine. I

(02:09:11):
don't ever drink wine. Oh I love it. I would
opt for the Mitchell's wild berry crumble and a sweet
reestling whatever. Yeah, I don't know dick about wine. I
know ice cream, don't know dick about wine. So you know, Sangria.
If you're somewhere, they go, hey, I want to get
a picture singer. Yeah, okay, cool Sangria. It's fine, red wine, fine,

(02:09:33):
and a bunch of fruit, a bunch of fruit. But
the red wine and ice cream, because again, I mean
technically that's nothing new, right, this restaurant will do like
ice cream after dinner and you go to the little
glass of sherry or something like that.

Speaker 4 (02:09:46):
You know, you know what now that I think about this,
like I instantly poop poot it right, Like I was like, oh,
it sounds gross, But then I read about it and
the things you should pair with which flavor? Right, So
vanilla would be a fruity, softer red like a Merlin
or a Malbec. But when you read the chocolate thing,
how many times have you heard people talk about pairing
dark chocolates with the bigger wines like the cabs.

Speaker 3 (02:10:08):
So I guess it makes sense.

Speaker 4 (02:10:09):
A boulder, full bodied red with notes of dark fruit,
such as a cab can compliment rich chocolate flavor.

Speaker 3 (02:10:15):
So if you go chocolate ice crum, yeah, you don't
be wicked good. Wicked would be really good. Could be
a wicked good to old PANSA article says red wines
tannins are mellowed by the fat in ice cream. It
feels like you're going all the way around the track
just to come up with an excuse to put ice
cream and wine.

Speaker 4 (02:10:35):
I would say, if you're gonna do it, you're gonna
want to use like a step above trash wine. I mean,
you're not gonna want to dump a nice glass of
wine into ice cream.

Speaker 3 (02:10:44):
I got two buck chocolate, I got chocolate mint chip. Right,
how do you feel about that? How about a prosecco
over a blood orange sorbet rub delicious? I know you're
like the finer thing is.

Speaker 10 (02:11:00):
Show on one hundred sevens.

Speaker 8 (02:11:05):
Everything is so expensive.

Speaker 7 (02:11:08):
Instead of buying new clothes, just wait for the rapture.

Speaker 8 (02:11:13):
You'll be surrounded by free stuff.

Speaker 13 (02:11:15):
Because, let's face it, you won't be going anywhere another
life hack from the Alan Cox Show.

Speaker 18 (02:11:22):

How you doing?

Speaker 2 (02:12:20):
Good? Man? What's going on? Man? Hey? Nice talking to
you guys too.

Speaker 16 (02:12:24):
You know, hey, back in the day, we used to
work build a lot of houses out in Solo area,
and we used to drive through Sugarn Falls a lot
and we always drove up that hill for those guys
are rolling those pumpkins down. Yeah, I'll tell you what.

Speaker 2 (02:12:45):
I've never seen any of that, but we always went.

Speaker 16 (02:12:48):
By this house on the right hand side heading Penneth North,
and uh, this is a house where Tim conw Tim
Conway to work on the Caira Bernette Show a lot.
That's where he was born and raised right there in
that house, okay, with a great house is a century home.

(02:13:10):
And I just thought, I thought, you guys know that
that's a little place.

Speaker 2 (02:13:14):
Do you remember Tim Conways?

Speaker 3 (02:13:16):
I do. I thought he. I thought he was from
out Willoughby Way.

Speaker 2 (02:13:21):
Well, he grew up in that house. Maybe he moved
on from there. Yeah, you know what I'm saying.

Speaker 3 (02:13:27):
His son is his son. His son has been in
l A radio for a long time, is that right? Yeah,
Tim Conway jo that's funny, dude.

Speaker 4 (02:13:35):
Yeah yeah, running up and down that hill so many times.
That's how he came up with that.

Speaker 3 (02:13:41):
Character Dwarf on Pumpkin Sliding. I have that VHS tape somewhere,
I think speaking from Yes, yes I do, Joe Dwarf
on Pumpkin Sliding. Yeah, it's uh, put on eBay and
make quite a pretty penny. Hey, thank you, Joe. I
appreciate it.

Speaker 2 (02:13:59):
All right, have a good day, guys.

Speaker 3 (02:14:01):
You see Joe too, there's Joe on in orwell, Dwarf
Dwarf on golf. Wasn't that the big one? That was
the one? And it was just a side gag, was it?

Speaker 2 (02:14:13):
You know?

Speaker 4 (02:14:13):
It was his knees on on shoes.

Speaker 3 (02:14:16):
He did a whole bunch of them. They dragged that
thing out. Boy, sure did I remember? They remember? They
had the infomercials for it.

Speaker 4 (02:14:22):
If you love Dowarf on golf, you'll love the new
Dwarf on tennis.

Speaker 3 (02:14:27):
But he sold them, oh yeah, and they for inexplicably
they gave I guess because it was Dwarf.

Speaker 4 (02:14:35):
He had a Swedish accent. Uh huh, he's that Danny
hit the burg that kind of you know, didn't that
start like on the Carson Show or something started on
Carol Burnett?

Speaker 2 (02:14:44):
Did it?

Speaker 3 (02:14:45):
He did a character on Carol Burnett? And well I shouldn't.
I don't know that that that Dwarf didn't start on Carson.
I just know that he did a similar thing on
Carol Burnett. And what I do like though, is when
he would like lean forward and wouldn't move.

Speaker 4 (02:15:02):
I mean again, it's a full time completely it is
complete leading like that Michael Jackson. Thy.

Speaker 3 (02:15:06):
Yeah, there was an actor named Vincent Skiavelli who was
You'd recognize him if you saw him. He was in
those Dwarf videos with him. He was like a tall,
curly haired actor. He was in Ghost, he was on
moonlighting back in the day. Had Marfan syndrome or something
like that, and he was in those Dwarf videos. I mean,

(02:15:27):
this guy was.

Speaker 4 (02:15:27):
He was milking that Dwarf thing through twenty sixteen, four
years before he died. Dwarf on Golf, Dwarf and the
first Games of Mount Olympus. Yeah, Dwarf's Golf Bible, Dwarf
goes Auto racing, fishing, Dwarf on the Diamond.

Speaker 3 (02:15:43):
I mean, they just kept going. The videos were twenty
nine to ninety five, and the first three films in
the Door series had sold three hundred and sixty thousand
units by nineteen eighty nine, so it was it was
a big It was a moneymaker there for a while.
His name was you remember what Dorf's first name was, Rob?

(02:16:05):
Did you even know that he had a first name.

Speaker 8 (02:16:07):
I remember.

Speaker 3 (02:16:09):
It's his last name. Of course, that was his surname.
But as a proud Swede, what do you think his
first name was very common Swedish name.

Speaker 4 (02:16:27):
I don't know Waldo, No, Nope, it was Dirk, Dirkdorf
d e r K dirt.

Speaker 3 (02:16:37):
But you are right, it did start on Carson. The
character was created for a sketch where he played a
horse jockey, so he had to be very short, obviously.

Speaker 4 (02:16:45):
And then because that's where that whole thing started with
the leaning forward things, like I think Carson like slapped
him on the back or something. He just like did
like that thing where he paused himself there and then
sort of stood back up.

Speaker 3 (02:16:56):
I remember seeing that. Yeah, So all the short films
they had the same people in them. They had this
woman named Michelle Smith who played.

Speaker 4 (02:17:03):
Boom Boom LaRue, and Vincent Sciavelli was in there with him.

Speaker 3 (02:17:08):
I mean, it was definitely funny stuff.

Speaker 4 (02:17:10):
Like I hate to say that I still find that
stuff as funny as I do, But I thought Tim
Conway was one of the funniest people I've ever seen
on television.

Speaker 3 (02:17:18):
I didn't realize until literally years ago because I never
had an aversion or I never had I can't even
think of the word. I love physical comedy. I don't
know why it finally occurred to me that I was
laughing at those kinds of things right growing up. When

(02:17:40):
I would watch SNL anytime they had a sketch where
they had a tube in their sleeve and it was
blood or puke or what you know, Yeah, I would
laugh my ass off a long of everybody else. Not
a lot of people like physical comedy because I think
maybe it's considered like a lower form or whatever. I
love physical comedy me too.

Speaker 4 (02:17:56):
That's why I loved I loved all of that stuff,
the Three Stooges, all of those things that were just
like especially why I loved this Dwarf stuff. It was
so dumb, but it was like, again, I don't even
know how to say, it's so stupid that it was impossible.

Speaker 3 (02:18:13):
For me not to laugh all of the time. Norm
McDonald had a great joke back in the day in SNL,
he says Arnold Schwarzenegger says that OJ Simpson was nearly
cast in the Terminator, which is true, but producers didn't
think he could be sold as a killing machine. And
Norm's joke was at least he got the party in Dwarf.
On stalking Rip, Norm and Conway, there's no way. Yeah.

(02:18:40):
Tim Conway died right before Covid never knew what he
missed that. I'll tell you what.

Speaker 4 (02:18:45):
Man like think about the the dentist sketch on Carol Burnett.
Just things like that were so funny. Do you remember that,
you know, with Harvey Corman. Yeah, when he goes numb
and Harvey Corman cannot stop laughing. Yeah, it's all it's
so great. I go back and watch stuff like that
on occasion. It's just so funny.

Speaker 3 (02:19:01):
I had Carol Burnette on the show years ago, and
I was like, just I was fanboying all over her
and talking about those sketches and that it was a
different era for comedy. You know, it was kind of
a it was a there's more of a through line
with that kind of comedy than there is now. But
it was just so it just hit your reptile brain

(02:19:22):
in the right way. Was she as awesome as I
hope she was? Every bit? Yeah, see, that's that's that's
I love hearing that. I love. It wouldn't have been nicer.
Love her Alan. There's no way the red wine and
ice cream together ends in anything but an all day
case of the screaming mimis yeah, well, listen. If you're

Speaker 3 (02:20:57):
Hey Dick, Hey, oh and hey Rob? How are you
it's going on? Dick?

Speaker 11 (02:21:03):
Dick?

Speaker 3 (02:21:03):
Have you ever had ice cream and red wine?

Speaker 22 (02:21:07):
I've had red wine?

Speaker 3 (02:21:09):
Well yeah, but have you ever have you ever had it?
Have you ever had it mixed with like vanilla ice
cream and red wine? Apparently that's very popular right now?
You ever had that? Really? You're not lactose intolerant or anything,
are you?

Speaker 22 (02:21:22):
No?

Speaker 4 (02:21:23):
No?

Speaker 3 (02:21:23):
All right, no, but you've never had ice cream with
red wine?

Speaker 2 (02:21:28):
No? No, now, never did?

Speaker 22 (02:21:31):
Hey. I just wanted to say I didn't think about it.
But the Cavaliers are going to start up. I think
they're gonna have a good gear with Mitchell and them back.
I think they're gonna they come close last year. I
think there's a lot of potential. What do you think, Rob?
You think so?

Speaker 4 (02:21:51):
Uh?

Speaker 3 (02:21:52):
Yeah, he's a great I mean what leads you to
that conclusion? I know you're a booster, Dick. I know
they can do no wrong, but I mean the beginning
of the season, everybody is on the same level, right,
everybody is an unbeaten team on day one. What leads
you to believe that? Do they look healthier than in
years past? What leads you to believe that these guys

(02:22:12):
are going to be at the top of their game
as it were?

Speaker 22 (02:22:16):
I think there are a lot I'm hoping not with
the injuries. They're much healthier for you this year, and
I think they can't bring it home. But guys I've
I don't know, are the Browns. They're not doing well
and I'm thinking I'm going to predict this. They're gonna
beat Miami at New England. But if they don't, I

(02:22:39):
think it's going to be a long season.

Speaker 2 (02:22:42):
England, Yes, I do. I think they're.

Speaker 22 (02:22:45):
Gonna beat Miami at New England and then they're gonna,
I think, falter the rest of the year unless they
put one one quarterback in there there. They don't even
every ninth they what nine points last week? I mean,
it's just I know the heads are pretty I mean,
what do you guys think? What do you think it
is about the Browns?

Speaker 8 (02:23:06):
Is it that?

Speaker 22 (02:23:07):
Is it the coaching or is it the management? What
do you think?

Speaker 4 (02:23:10):
I think it's the new uniforms, It's the color scheme, uniforms.

Speaker 3 (02:23:14):
Yeah, so they're going to beat New England. That concludes
Dick's picks Rob on The Alan Cock Show.

Speaker 23 (02:23:19):
Hmm, pressure does always do that?

Speaker 11 (02:23:36):
Huh.

Speaker 3 (02:23:37):
How do you feel about Brown Stadium starting to serve
ice cream and red wine?

Speaker 22 (02:23:42):
I love it. I think it's good.

Speaker 8 (02:23:45):
All right, I think it's good.

Speaker 2 (02:23:47):
I have a good day, guys.

Speaker 3 (02:23:49):
Oh golly, uh yeah YouTube. I was literally taken off.
God there, Rock. I'm not used to him signing off
so quickly. Yeah, he's quick in and out. He really
pulled the rug out from under me. Just dipped in,

(02:24:09):
dipped out. Yeah, peace out Ac. Another bit of the
old quick in and out with Dick from Dayton. Hey, Allie, Hi, Hi,

Speaker 11 (02:24:25):
Oh?

Speaker 3 (02:24:26):
I'm fine as Frog's hair. How you doing?

Amazon yet?

Speaker 3 (02:24:36):
Yes I have, Yes, I started.

Speaker 30 (02:24:39):
It very good, very very good.

Speaker 3 (02:24:42):
I didn't realize he did so much cocaine.

Speaker 30 (02:24:48):
I know he has very bad anxiety.

Speaker 3 (02:24:51):
Well, yeah, cocaine, I'll probably do that. I'm sure that
didn't help. I got really bad anxiety. Let's do cocaine
about it. H No, love John kN Andy I mean, yeah,
that the I was talking to Stansbury about it because uh,
he was talking about and how great it was, and
I had watched it and I was a big SCTV fan,
and but again, you know that guy John Candy never

(02:25:13):
got skinny, right, So I mean the guy was like
smoking and doing cocaine and but you know, yeah, a
universally beloved guy. But uh yeah, a lot of a
lot of issues, very very a poignant documentary over there
on Amazon. Yes, did you cry? All you cry watching.

Speaker 30 (02:25:34):
It a little bit at the end. And I didn't
realize that how many of those actors all worked in
the same movies together throughout their careers.

Speaker 3 (02:25:47):
Yeah, yep. John Franklin Candy from Toronto, Canada, Yeah, died
on set, right, died in Mexico making a film Wagons.

Speaker 30 (02:25:57):
Something wagon z Taylor with the siple in his hand.

Speaker 3 (02:26:03):
Yeah. Yeah, No. I liked the beginning with they didn't
show Dan Aykroyd, but the voiceover was his eulogy for
John Candy. I was like, oh my god, it was amazing. Yes, No,
That's why I rented JFK shortly after, because I had
never seen it in John Candy, you know, anybody who's
anybody in nineteen ninety one was in Oliver Stone's JFK.

(02:26:24):
And John Candy is in it in a kind of
a rare dramatic thing. Now my dramatic. I mean, like
you know, cool running is dramatic, not not a fellow
or yeah, but yeah, okay, yes, two thumbs up.

Speaker 8 (02:26:38):
Ali, Yes, absolutely, Okay, thank you Ali.

Speaker 3 (02:26:45):
There's Ali out there in Litchfield dancing between the rain drops.
I've seen because they talked to John Candy's son and daughter.
I've seen his daughter in things before. Jennifer Candy. I've
never seen his son. I don't know if he's in
the business, but I did not recognize him. But I've
seen Jennifer Candy and things. But yeah, John Candy was
still a young man. He's been dead now for thirty

(02:27:07):
one years. Jesus. Yeah, he was forty three when he died.
Died in a lot of people knew from STTV, A
lot of people knew from the John Hughes movies Uncle Buck.
He died in his sleep in Mexico, had a heart
attack while he was sleeping, and he weighed at three
hundred and seventy five pounds. Holy Cow and obviously big. Yeah,

(02:27:32):
that big. With that comes all the risk factors. And
then on top of that, he smoked a pack of
day he was fat, drank a lot, and did cocaine
about it. Said he lost one hundred pounds one time
over the summer getting ready to film Planes, Trains and Automobiles.
That was thin John Candy. That was thin John Candy. Yes, Wow,

(02:27:55):
that was him his skinniest And that's such a good movie.
He's married at Holy Cross Cemetery in Culver City. He's
got a mausoleum there. I never saw planes, Trains and
Automobiles until last year. Are you serious? Yep? How I
had seen bits and pieces, but it wasn't it. I

(02:28:16):
don't know. Wow, some of those like kloying comedies just
don't hit me where I want him to hit. And
then I was kind of like, this really is a
movie I should see, you know, So I did. It's incredible.
That's one of my absolute favorite John Candy movies. That
that maybe number one or number two. Great Outdoors Uncle Buck,

(02:28:37):
like those are all right there, but man, yeah, Planes
Trains and Automobiles is fantastic. There's a documentary from last year,
I think on Steve Martin. It's a two parter. It's
over on Apple TV. And there's a point where he's
talking about that movie and he has all the scripts
from the movies he's done bound on a shelf in

(02:28:58):
this one room and he's opening it and he's reading
the dialogue from that scene in Planes, Trains and Automobiles
when John Candy admits that he has nowhere to go
because his wife is dead, and like Steve Martin can't
get through it. He like he like can't keep reading
it thinking of John Candy and remembering that scene, and

(02:29:19):
he's reading it from this bound copy of the script.
He's got what's a crusher of a scene. Yeah, yep,
So yeah, that John Candy. It's called I Like Me,
and it's over on Amazon Prime. I don't think it'll
cost you anything, but I'm just scrolling through John Candy movies.
Who's Harry Crumb? Who's Harry Got in Years? Yeah? There

(02:29:40):
were I mean, as with anybody, there's some stinkers in there,
but Harry.

Speaker 4 (02:29:44):
It wasn't terrible. Armed and Dangerous wasn't great. Summer Rental
was very good. Summer Rental was great. Space Balls of course,
bar follow you yep, and now is it his kid
is going to play barf in the new Space Balls.

Speaker 3 (02:30:00):
You don't know about that. I heard that that was
the case.

Speaker 4 (02:30:02):
Okay, Yeah, Planes, Trains and Automobiles, Uncle Buck and The
Great Outdoors are my three top candy movies.

Speaker 3 (02:30:09):
I mean, I did hear that everybody is coming back
for Baseballs?

Speaker 25 (02:30:14):
No?

Speaker 3 (02:30:14):
I think who ever cares? Not John Rivers, I know,
but I mean, like I figured Daphne's Zuniga, it would
be like thanks but no thanks, or they wouldn't even
ask her like she's in it. I think Bill Pulman's
kid is the main guy. Now.

Speaker 4 (02:30:25):
Rick Moranis is back yep, and this is the first
thing he's done since he retired right a long time.

Speaker 3 (02:30:31):
That's insane. Bill Pullman and Rick Moranis were preasing the
rose As Rolls as Lone Star and Dark Helmet, respectively.
Josh gadd is in it, Keky Palmer's in it. So
some new people. It's not gonna be out till twenty
twenty seven. We better hurry up and film this thing.
Him melt Brooks. They I mentioned first. I was gonna say,
is he gonna be yogurt again? It has to be right,

(02:30:51):
if he's alive. Yeah, they won't have to put much
makeup on him. Now, May the s whats be with you?
I like early mel Brooks. Spaceballs was the last one
of his. I liked that was when you could start.
I mean, I don't know what else did they do?
I mean, what has he done after that?

Speaker 8 (02:31:07):
Though?

Speaker 3 (02:31:07):
He did Robin hood Men and Tights? Oh right, yeah,
yeah Chappelle, early Dave Chappelle. That was fine. I mean
it was it was okay, but it was like those
later movies. You're like, Jesus, did anybody actually write this
or what? You can see him coming a mile away?
I like Young Frankenstein and Blazing Saddles and High Anxiety,
all those earlier History of the world. Yeah, I give

(02:31:27):
you these fifteen and commandments.

Speaker 4 (02:31:33):
You are nuts n VTS nuts.

Speaker 3 (02:31:38):
That's my favorite line in the movie. Everybody else has
their favorite, and the fifteen commandments is great because it's
a good sight gag. I love Ron Carey. I think

Speaker 12 (02:33:37):
Ya.

Speaker 3 (02:33:39):
Tomorrow morning, we got one more pair of tickets the
Rock and Roll Hall of Fame to get you, but
the grand prize course of pair of tickets to see
Rush next fall when the fifty something tour is coming
through Rock and Arena. So every day this week, Rover
has been telling you what song Stansbury's gonna be playing
and when he's gonna do it. So seven thirty tomorrow morning,

(02:33:59):
Rover will say, hey, here's the Rush song of the day,
stands where he's gonna play it now? Then whatever I
will tell you, he will play it early in his
show tomorrow. So listen tomorrow seven thirty with Rover, and
then he will tell you and you get uh set
you up with the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame course,
But then one person gets the tickets for Rush and

(02:34:21):
we'll be breadcrumbing those tickets out over the course of
the next year. Alan, my husband said, do you want
to go see Gedty Lee? And I said sure, and
I googled who Getty Lee is. Rob's gonna hate this,
she said, learned he's part of a band called Rush.
I realize I know zero Rush songs. I tell my

(02:34:43):
husband that I googled Getty Lee. My husband said, you know,
we have a book about Getty Lee in the house.
He plays the bass. This is his bass collection book.
I have one of those two. Getty Lee was kind
of not to sign one of those for me. I
had that giant what's it called, the Big Beautiful Book
of Bass or something? Yeah, signed by Getty Lee. I'd
be more meaningful, of course if I was a bass player.

(02:35:05):
But it was very nice for him to do some
years ago. And it is the other half of the
rhythm section. This woman goes on to say, oh, right,
I've seen that book, but I've never heard a Rush song.
My husband said, you have. I've played their music. She said, okay,
I mean, how have you not heard of me? It's
been everywhere movies, TV and radio everywhere. So the wife,

(02:35:30):
she said to her husband, if you wouldn't mind Rob
as a date, how much do you think he'll pay
for my ticket?

Speaker 4 (02:35:36):
Said?

Speaker 3 (02:35:36):
Her husband got lucky. They got they were on that
City Bank presale and he got tickets. Yeah. Well, there
you go. Listen. That's a conversation that a lot of
couples have. You know, there's a lot of shows that
you know, my wife couldn't give a fat frog's ass about.
So I go to a lot of shows by myself,
which is fine. I'm not going to drag anybody to,

(02:36:00):
you know, a show that they're not really interested in.
But you might be hearing from that guy that woman's
husband at some point, Rob, Rob, Hey, my wife find
emailed you. Guys. I got a ticket here. It's wondering
if you'd want to go on a date I want.
I don't know if you want to be my plus
one for Rush buddy, I'd be happy to. I just

(02:36:22):
don't put out on the first date, sir. That's okay.
I am gonna need nine hundred and seventy two dollars
for a ticket.

Speaker 4 (02:36:29):
Hello, Hello, Well that sounds familiar. Hey Rob, I have
an extra ticket you want to come with? Yeah, that'd
be great.

Speaker 3 (02:36:34):
I'd love to. That sounds like a great time. Oh
that's ninety dollars. You're talking about Guardians playoff Guardian baseball game.
I go, yeah, Hey, we have an extra ticket. Oh cool?
I mean I just assume that someone offers you an
extra ticket. That doesn't mean but you played yourself play
because you asked her. I you said, how much do

(02:36:56):
you want? I said how much?

Speaker 8 (02:36:59):
Good?

Speaker 3 (02:36:59):
Indeed go unpunished? How much do I owe you? You know,
kind of like, oh, don't worry about it, I got it.
Buy me a couple of eighty what she didn't waste
a second? No, Yeah, his bitch, that's what you get
for asking. Yeah, well again, that's what I get for
being polite. I got to keep my manners in check.
That's what I gotta do. Just assume be like, oh,

(02:37:22):
you wanted me to pay. I didn't have any idea.
I would have said, no, it's gonna happen with this
guy now, or at least he would have had a
cap how much do you want for this? And then
you could have haggled. Tell you what a Guardian's playoff
ticket the deciding game. I'll give you market rate. Seventeen

(02:37:44):
dollars and fifty cents sold to the guy who looks
like Kevin Sefanski. Do you think now we mentioned this earlier,
and I don't think that his condition has changed, but
Ace Frehley is on life support. Yeah, it least like
it's the same. I keep looking. He's got a brain
bleed and prognosis negative. If I can quote, Seinfeld Fell

(02:38:07):
in his studio earlier in the month, had to cancel
his tour, and it's kind of been a bit of
a domino effect since them. I think his daughter might
be around. Do you think that Gene Simmons mentions Ace Frehley?
You know, Kiss is getting the Kennedy Center Honors in December?

(02:38:28):
They were all supposed to go, well they the other
guys are going, aren't they supposed to go too? That's
what I'm saying. Do you think I can't imagine this
guy is going to come back and be there in December.
Do you think that they mentioned Ace Frehley? Of course.
I mean Gene Simmons seemed for a while. Maybe he's
got a little softer now with some hindsight and some age,

(02:38:50):
but for a long time, boy, he never missed an
opportunity to slag Ace Frehley. Yeah. But I think in
death deep seated to resent.

Speaker 4 (02:38:57):
Is that what it is? I think? So if they
were building the ill of the day, and if they
were planning on going together to this thing, it was
gonna be a big deal.

Speaker 3 (02:39:05):
So they say, don't speak ill of the dead? What
if the dead was previously ill, well what if you
have a license to ill your nose like the VC
Boys did in the eighties, you're no longer ill at
that point? Is that to speak ill? I see? I
mean it is like.

Speaker 4 (02:39:24):
It's weird in a way to see people posting with
the heartbroken stuff before anything's actually happened, like everywhere on
social media right now a'ce freely forever in the broken
heart emojis and I get.

Speaker 3 (02:39:36):
All of that, Beach.

Speaker 4 (02:39:37):
I mean, I don't think he's coming back. Well, you
don't know, I mean until you hear that he's gone.
I just feel like that stuff can sometimes be a
little uh premature.

Speaker 3 (02:39:45):
I mean, this was days after Jeene Simmons was in
that car crash. Yeah, could they be hiding the fact
that Ace Frehley was in the trunk? How likely do
you think that is? I probably highly unlikely, But then
again it is I'm just asking questions. Rob, you might
have heard that. I'm just asking questions.

Speaker 4 (02:40:08):
It is Gene Simmons, and they could have been going
to a drive in trying to save that eight dollars
right good in the trunk?

Speaker 3 (02:40:16):
Do me if everyone good in the trunk?

Speaker 17 (02:40:18):
Good?

Speaker 3 (02:40:18):
In the trunk. Well, Ace is he in the Rock
and Roll Hall of Fame since twenty fourteen as a
member of Kiss, and he is he's not the oldest
member of Kiss? What do they say? Ace was seventy seven,
seventy four, seventy four is seventy four, is currently seventy
four years old. I think Gene is the oldest one,

(02:40:41):
and sorry, Peter, Chris will be eighty this Christmas. He's
the oldest. Gene is seventy six, Paul is seventy three
years old. And if you've listened to this show for
any length of time, you know what a varied career
Paul Stanley has had from rock and roll.

Speaker 13 (02:41:01):
Here's Rush, Okay, that's cool.

Speaker 12 (02:41:08):
Next town.

Speaker 3 (02:41:11):
You got a lot of nice shops in there.

Speaker 4 (02:41:13):
You can even get still some tiny food at the folks.

Speaker 3 (02:41:23):
You know, a lot of bands won't pay lip service
to how much they love Cleveland. It is almost an
impossibility that you'll find one of them who spent any
amount of time working for the Regional Transit Authority in Cleveland.
The way Paul Stanley did.

Speaker 25 (02:41:39):
What was his?

Speaker 29 (02:41:39):
Uh?

Speaker 3 (02:41:40):
Was it Chili's?

Speaker 5 (02:41:41):
Was that?

Speaker 3 (02:41:42):
The the other job? He was a Apple Applebee's. Here's
Paul Stanley as an Apple.

Speaker 4 (02:41:50):
Yeah, as an apple? Yes, sorry, chilies, How I'm there?
I apologize.

Speaker 2 (02:41:56):
Here's Paul has an Apple Bee's waiter.

Speaker 3 (02:42:00):
Hello, my name is Paul Stanley. I'll be taking care
of y'all tonight. Does anybody's celebrating the birthday?

Speaker 17 (02:42:07):
No?

Speaker 3 (02:42:07):
How are you all feeling fine?

Speaker 2 (02:42:09):
I guess?

Speaker 3 (02:42:09):
Oh, I'm sorry, what a kid. We're doing quite well,
thank you. Would any of y'all like.

Speaker 15 (02:42:17):
To start with an appetizer such as grilled chicken?

Speaker 11 (02:42:21):
What chackles?

Speaker 3 (02:42:24):
Honey? Appetizing?

Speaker 22 (02:42:25):
Oh?

Speaker 3 (02:42:26):
No, I think we're good. Oh maybe you'd just like
to get started with some coca.

Speaker 9 (02:42:30):
You know what.

Speaker 3 (02:42:31):
I think we'll just order our entrees now.

Speaker 24 (02:42:33):
I'll have the bourbon sweet steak and my wife will
have Bee chicken caesar are salad.

Speaker 3 (02:42:37):
Okay, that sounds nice. Oh I'm gonna be right back
with some boaters. That would be great.

Speaker 11 (02:42:44):
That was Stanley.

Speaker 2 (02:42:56):
Whoa whoa whoa.

Speaker 3 (02:43:01):
Who speaking of chili as I was reading about a
guy in wait for it, Florida who beat up his
wife because she didn't want to go to Chili's with him. Now,
let me take the contrarian view. Here as I so
often like to do, and suggest that, as counterintuitive and

(02:43:26):
distasteful as it might seem, this should be Chili's next
ad campaign. Our food is so good. A guy punched
his wife because she didn't want to go with him.
What does that tell you? A man from Ocalla, Florida,
a lot of bands come out of Ocalla, attacked his

(02:43:46):
wife because she said, I don't want to go to Chili's,
you know, rob that classic argument that always leads to
domestic violence. She called the cops. Her husband battered her
much in the same way that Chili's deliciously batters their
butterfly shrimp. He's like, I want to go to Chili's,

(02:44:10):
and she simply said she had the audacity to suggest
that she did not want to eat to Chili's. At Chili's,
he got upset and began to yell, and then began
throwing things throughout their home, striking her on a couple
of occasions, throwing items inside the bedroom. She then claimed

(02:44:31):
that he grabbed her by the back of her neck
and struck her multiple times about the head, neck, and chest,
and then he pushed her into the wall and she
eventually was able to get away ran to the garage
and screamed for help at the top of her lungs. Awful, awful,
awful passed her by or somebody heard the woman and

(02:44:55):
he went over there. But the guy came out of
the house and put the dude in a headlock. And
the female who went to the cops, she had all
of the marks. It was quite clear she wasn't lying.
She says. She also lost a quote large amount of
hair which was in a quote big pile on the ground.
Anytime you show up to a scene in Florida and

(02:45:15):
there's a big pile of hair on the ground, nothing
good is going to come from them, not good at all.
And so they scooped the guy up. And obviously this
guy has a history of battery. It's not like one
day you just snap and your wife doesn't want to
go to Chili's and you beat her up. But again,
I'll reiterate, this should be the next Chilies ad campaign.

(02:45:39):
Now it will take some fortitude. Understandably, you'll get a
lot of backlash, but if you frame it in such
a way, we hear a Chili's unabashedly and unequivocally condemn
all forms of domestic violence. But this menu though, in
that work, our prices are so great. I'm telling you,

(02:46:02):
did this guy know something that you don't know? America
one of those? But no, they won't. They won't touch
it with a ten foot Paul.

Speaker 4 (02:46:10):
Why don't you want to go to Chili's, Honey, I've
already had diarrhea once this week.

Speaker 3 (02:46:16):
I already had that giant vanilla ice cream and red
wine Sunday at that other place.

Speaker 12 (02:46:21):
I'm good, I'm good.

Speaker 3 (02:46:23):
From the Weather Center meteorologist Paul Stanley. How's that feel
out there? Paul's damn good? Can you be more specific?

Speaker 4 (02:46:30):
Can you.

Speaker 3 (02:46:32):
A little chuneup? How about the humidity?

Speaker 7 (02:46:36):
That's the weather from meteorologist Paul Stanley.

Speaker 3 (02:46:38):
Paul will check in with you again next hour. Paul Stanley,
he is the man of a thousand talents.

Speaker 30 (02:46:48):
Hi Alean Hi Rob Megan from Grafton here.

Speaker 3 (02:46:51):
Rob, you are usually a broad of fresh air for me.

Speaker 9 (02:46:54):
You make me feel about feel better about myself being so,
I don't know, blowing things up out of proportion, but
be lucky, it's.

Speaker 3 (02:47:02):
Only two weeks in advance.

Speaker 6 (02:47:03):
I used to work in a place where the supervisor
would put out Christmas decorations and play Christmas music two.

Speaker 3 (02:47:09):
Weeks before Halloween, so we had to deal with it
for two and a half months.

Speaker 30 (02:47:13):
So be glad you don't have that.

Speaker 3 (02:47:15):
Thanks guys, love me, love you.

Speaker 30 (02:47:16):
Hate the show back.

Speaker 8 (02:47:17):
No, no, we do have that.

Speaker 4 (02:47:19):
That's gonna start what like that, Like as soon as
Halloween's over, they're gonna start putting up Christmas.

Speaker 3 (02:47:25):
Oh yeah, absolutely love a tree in here and everything.

Speaker 4 (02:47:27):
And they'll start playing that music because once it starts,
the boss he makes us leave that on all the time,
like that's.

Speaker 3 (02:47:34):
On what your Name's gonna be singing about f and
pie and before you know it, they will have some
f and pie. Dude, some care I do like the
people who leave messages and go rob it's least it's
not as bad as right. Doesn't change this situation, No,
I guess they're just trying to maintain some perspective.

Speaker 4 (02:47:54):
But it's still just foreshadowing for our next situation, like
that's coming in like two weeks.

Speaker 3 (02:47:59):
Yeah, Allan, I just got home from work. I am
so glad that you broadcast until six point thirty on
the dot. Oh Alan, that guy's wife should go to
the Rush show. There's never a line for the women's
bathroom at a Rush show. Boy, that's true too. I
just watched I had never seen that funnier die thing

(02:48:21):
that they did with the guys from h Yes, what
is it?

Speaker 5 (02:48:24):
No?

Speaker 4 (02:48:25):
I love you man, I love you man. They did
a funnier die sketch. Yeah, and they met them.

Speaker 3 (02:48:30):
Do you ever see that? Yeah, they met him at
the show. I had never watched that, and I watched
it today. And the fact that they supplyt of that
movie is that they're huge Rush fans.

Speaker 8 (02:48:38):
Yeah.

Speaker 4 (02:48:38):
Yeah, And the fact that they played made reference to
the fact that women are never there. So you see
the three of the guys from Rush walking to their
dressing room and he's like, I saw two in the
front road tonight, and he's like yeah and I saw.
He's like, I counted seven total. It was really really
a funny, funny nod to the fact that chicks don't
dig Rush. I mean, there are some, but still, this

(02:49:00):
is the biggest story in the world, man, Like it's
everywhere that there are no women in a Rush show. No,
that Rush is back, like it's it's just it's insane,
how like big it is. I think there's another big
announcement coming to I think there's more dates, more stops,
more something coming.

Speaker 3 (02:49:16):
That guy's just like us, except they're also the greatest
musicians in the history of the world.

Speaker 23 (02:49:23):
I saw four in the messy Yeah, I had three
in the front row.

Speaker 3 (02:49:27):
Seven females in a rush concert must be some kind
of a world record. Whoa, hey, who are you guys?
We are have the lem Yeah. Sorry, we had the
laminates because we thought it was okay to just come
in here. But we can totally get out of that.

Speaker 4 (02:49:42):
Movie's like ten years old now, right, I Love You Man.
I think it's older than that because this was made
after that. Yeah, and in that movie's yeah, that that
right there. That sketch was twenty ten, so two thousand
and nine. Wow, that movie came out before it came
to Cleveland.

Speaker 3 (02:49:56):
That's a that's a that's a funny movie. I Love
you man. Yeah, very funny movie.

Speaker 4 (02:50:01):
And at the end of that sketch, Uh, Getty brings
him his bass back and he hands it to him
and he goes.

Speaker 3 (02:50:07):
Keep slapping the bass. Oh right, the slap and the bass. Yeah,
he's Getty says it. At the end, he walks away
with the with the peace signs up it's great because
Rashida Jones is the wife. Right, Oh she's foxing. I
love her slapping the bis, slap the bass. Yes, are
you ready to get your mind blown?

Speaker 11 (02:50:24):
Do it?

Speaker 3 (02:50:24):
You want to get some Neil perk all up in you?
I don't know, Peter well rushing By. Never pre sell
a band like that to your woman ever, ever. And
if you're gonna do it, that's the band to do it.
I could see that good, right, Yeah she's playing along? Yeah, yeah,

(02:50:52):
that high when you do it well in real life,
I do it low, but air base works best up here.
This is exactly what I.

Speaker 2 (02:51:01):
Look like when a job outman, when a job with
my boss.

Speaker 3 (02:51:08):
Slip at the bass, money.

Speaker 15 (02:51:10):
And now I must leave you as the Brady bunches
on and I find four of those children incredibly arousing.

Speaker 2 (02:51:17):
Get at it.

Speaker 29 (02:51:18):
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.

(02:51:39):
One slip and you know who you're through. Big Brother
is watching you. And with all narratives, remember ovidiens paid.

Speaker 8 (02:51:52):
And when you watch that.

Speaker 29 (02:51:54):
TV screens, remember it works both ways. You'll disappear in
a wink. Unless you can double think, you'll vanish into
the blue. Big brother is watching you.
