Three five, one two want to send me a text?
Allancoxshow dot com. All the other stuff you can watch
on our YouTube. I'm in here surfing off the fumes
of this nineties weekend. Boy, I love it. It feels
almost disrespectful for us to cut in all most I said,
almost yeah, Mike and Canton texted Mike and Canton sent
(01:53):
me a text. Rob has got to be my favorite
program director. I wonder, I wonder how he ran them
in his head. I wonder who his top five are? Hey, vomit.
I rarely listen to the radio, but I put in
an effort when he has these weekends going on. Well, Mike,
why don't you puff my ass? All right? I rarely
(02:15):
listen to the radio. People have really strange ways of
complimenting people. Oh I love these because I don't ever
listen to the radio. All right, Well, if they're listening
in podcast form or on the app, as long as
they're listening, I'm fine.
Speaker 5 (02:32):
MM.
Speaker 1 (02:33):
I would much rather have them listen on the radio radio.
But to each his own.
Speaker 3 (02:40):
And all.
Speaker 1 (02:40):
My wife and I popped into an Applebee's for lunch.
I mean, that's a jaunty way of putting it, right,
We popped into an Applebeasts. It sounds almost impromptu, But
I think you really have to gird your loins. If
you're gonna decide to go to an Applebe's for lunch,
You've really you've got to prepare yourself, right, That is
a premeditated decision.
Speaker 6 (02:59):
Yes, unless you're like, you're out, Hey, I'm hungry. What's
around here?
Speaker 1 (03:05):
I don't know. Applebe's my last choice? Oh stop it.
It wouldn't be my last choice. We used when we
were in oak Tree. We were in Independence. Out of
oak Tree, there was one right across the street. There
was one at Rockside Road, and so I've had been
there a handful of times, and there were like three
or four restaurants right next to each other. I had
never There was a sushi joint. We went there a
(03:26):
couple of times. I had never gone. There was like
a long Horn right next to Applebee's. Yeah, never went there.
To this day, I've never been to a long Horn.
And it's not like I'm avoiding it. I just don't.
I don't know, I've never gone. I wasn't like, oh,
you know, I could get a forty eight or forty
eight ounce porterhouse for lunch or something. But I know,
on a couple of occasions, young Bill Wills and I
(03:49):
would go over there and have lunch at Applebee's.
Speaker 6 (03:51):
Yeah, and you know, there's a long Horn in my town,
so I go everywhere in a while.
Speaker 1 (03:55):
It's pretty good. Oh yeah, yeah, all right, not bad.
What about outback, I mean it's the same, like you
like a quick steak, you know.
Speaker 6 (04:03):
I mean Longhorn is definitely, I think, a better overall
choice than out Back.
Speaker 1 (04:09):
But Tayhas Roadhouse, I think is like the most popular
quick what they call fast casual restaurants these days.
Speaker 6 (04:16):
And that's like, that's that's an outback ish thing too,
you know. It's that middle of the road, you know,
family steakhouse kind of place.
Speaker 1 (04:24):
Easy and easy, out rightly right, something for everybody on
the menu, you know. And I'm on my way home
out West Lake Bay Village area, right there on ninety West,
there's all these restaurants along the service road that I
always forget are there. I've never been to any of them.
But there's like an olive garden and a holy house
and a friggin' a Robbie at what's a what's the Carabas?
I think tying places. Anyway, this person said, we went
(04:46):
to Applebee's. We heard we just disagree by Dave Mason. Yes,
and we heard everybody everybody by black Box. Remember well,
Brian saying this the other day. That's how we just disagree.
Showed up and then you have black Box.
Speaker 3 (05:06):
Right.
Speaker 1 (05:07):
Anytime a plane crashes and they check the black Box,
we go for them. He goes, we would have had
no idea what those songs were without your show, which
is very surprising to me. I mean, the black Box
song is used in all kinds of commercials, and you
hear it in sporting events, and.
Speaker 6 (05:23):
This song is a real bang our sporting events still
play in jock jams, though, Like, I don't know that if.
Speaker 1 (05:28):
You're there, they are point on television play. I feel like,
if you're there, they are, you think, so yeah, don't think.
Speaker 6 (05:34):
I feel like that song might not be played at
arenas anymore.
Speaker 7 (05:39):
There ain't no good, there ain't no bad.
Speaker 2 (05:43):
Gosh, there's only you and me.
Speaker 1 (05:47):
We just disagree yep, of course we can't see.
Speaker 8 (05:57):
No good gosh, no bad gosh, only you and me.
Speaker 7 (06:04):
We just dishagree.
Speaker 1 (06:06):
He kind of stay with that one. He really was. Yeah.
Dave Mason, who famously was in the band Traffic with
Steve Wynwood. But it's just a solid Rob referred to
it as yacht rock, and I guess maybe I'd never
thought of it like that, but you're probably right. Oh yeah, yeah,
I would definitely. This is on my yacht rock mixtapes. Okay. Anyway,
So there you go, a guy going out there here
(06:27):
in a couple of songs that he would not have
known from the show, and I have to assume that
that just improved his applebee's experience, right, I would imagine.
I mean, if this came on while I was eating anywhere,
I'd be happy. Absolutely. Hey, I came in today garage. Yeah.
I looked over to my right. Do I see the
Uh the Alan coxmobile has made it? It has I
(06:49):
got my car back? Congratulations? Yeah, thank you, I got
my car back, my twenty fifteen Ford Fusion. Well, yeah, no,
I got it back. It had been I hit a
deer a couple of weeks back, and I it I
was fine, no airbags went off or anything like that.
That damage was largely cosmetic, but they really had to
get in there and fix it and the crew. I
took it to AutoNation out in Westlake, and this is
(07:10):
hashtag not an ad but I had taken my car
out there on a couple of occasions just for other things.
But this had to go into their collision center and
they were fantastic. So it looks great. Yeah, it looks
good as new. It is weird. I feel like I'm
driving a toy now because I've been driving this Durango
for three weeks. You know, I'm up high. There's a
lot more bells and whistles, and yeah, I feel like
(07:33):
I'm driving a toy because it's weared you into wanting
an suve. No, it steered me into thinking more about it. Yeah, yeah,
but you know, I really do like my car. I
was not in the mood to have to buy a
new car. I just I want to have another year
and a half maybe before I have to do that.
So my insurance company fixed it. They didn't total it
(07:54):
out or anything like that. And so yeah, I finally
got the car back the other day, and so I'm
happy to be behind the wheel again. But it was. Yeah.
It took some getting used to for a second because
I've been driving this around for three weeks and uh
and that was good. That was fun. But uh yeah,
back behind the wheel of h I have never named
my cars, right, some people have, they go there, I
(08:14):
got the old black Beauty is back in. I feel
like that was a thing back in the day, right.
My parents had like one of their cars. My mom
called the Rose. Oh, yeah, of course the Rose. And
I go, why, Mom, it's a bright green car. She's like,
shut up, yeah, tell my mom talked to It's just
what I call it, you dick. My dad called his
truck big Red. He had a gigantic.
Speaker 6 (08:39):
No, it's a big, giant red duly truck, did two
wheels in the back, big stupid looking Ford truck.
Speaker 1 (08:46):
That he had. Yeah, big Red. He had that for years.
I feel like it's a real beater. You give it
a name, yeah, because it hung out right. You're not
going to give a brand new car a name.
Speaker 9 (08:54):
Two cars named Jerry Seinfeld.
Speaker 1 (08:57):
Because she loves Jerry signs Jerry.
Speaker 10 (09:00):
And then the other one was Little Jerry Seinfold named
after the rooster. Yeah, and then after that hello name
in my car again, little Jerry sign, they kept falling apart.
Speaker 9 (09:09):
Yeah, maybe that's like bad luck.
Speaker 1 (09:11):
Maybe it was trying to tell you something. Yeah, yeah,
Alan going to Applebee's for lunches like deciding to eat
kim chi for two consecutive meals. I would eat it more.
I love kimchi. Him chie is pretty the little good.
If I had more, i'd eat it right, I'm starving. Actually,
Applebee's was good enough for our friend Paul Stanley of Kiss,
then I think it's probably good enough for random diners
to go. Paul Stanley has an Applebee's water. Hello, my
(09:35):
name is Paul Stanley. I'll be taking care of y'all tonight,
a book day. No, how are you all feeling fine?
I guess? Oh, I'm sorry, what kid? We're doing quite well,
thank you. Would any of y'all like to start with
an appetizer such ass grilled chicken? What honey? Appetize? Hu
(10:00):
not super good?
Speaker 11 (10:01):
Oh?
Speaker 1 (10:01):
Maybe you just not could get thoughted with some ga
you know what? I think we'll just order our entrees now.
I'll have the Bourbon Street Steak and my white woold
have Bee Chicken Caesar salad. Okay, that sounds nice. Oh
I'm gonna be brought back with some boaters. That would
be great. Thousand A boy, it sounded way too busy
(10:22):
in them there for him to be spending so much
time chatting with the customers. Yeah, that's the kind of
service you get at Applebee's.
Speaker 6 (10:30):
You get those nice, attentive, hangout, sit down in your booth,
talk to you kind of folk's, which I like that.
Speaker 1 (10:36):
That guy doesn't like to sit around. Boy, when he's
not on the road, he's waiting tables at Applebe's. The
Ellen Car.
Speaker 2 (10:42):
Show on one best way to resist the machines.
Speaker 12 (10:52):
Dumb down your smartphone by listening to this crap.
Speaker 2 (10:56):
He won't even remember how.
Speaker 1 (10:57):
To tell Time.
Speaker 2 (11:00):
Show on one hundred seven mm.
Speaker 5 (11:04):
Rob, Hey they quack, Hey, row.
Speaker 2 (11:12):
They quack.
Speaker 1 (11:15):
He said, Yo, my neighbors got dugs.
Speaker 2 (11:17):
They'll be quacking of dad.
Speaker 1 (11:18):
Bro. I think I had enough.
Speaker 13 (11:20):
Never time I sleep, maybe clacking up a storm every time.
Speaker 1 (11:23):
I leve the duck's going off all I hear it
is quack quack wi like a dottle duff quack Quackwi.
Speaker 2 (11:31):
It's quack season bitch on Duff Dynasty.
Speaker 1 (11:34):
I mus spend the better part of the morning sending
everybody both versions of Rob Hates dog O quack quack,
because there's a metal version now and you never can
tell Rob. You can never judge a book by its cover,
if that's even the proper metaphor. Here, I got an
email from someone, and I'm not going to even mention
(11:55):
their name or blow up their spot because I wouldn't
want anyone to know they're filthy Sea. But I got
an email from somebody who said, can you please send
me both versions of Rob Hates Ducks and this person's
email signature. They're like the director of a local hospital group,
like senior director of hospital operations. It's some you know,
(12:18):
well done, Yeah, I love that, you know. So it's
you never know where people are coming from and you
never know what's going to hit them the right way there.
It is Alan's making of Rob being the program director
Why No Christmas Craptacular at the RMG thing with Jeffrey.
Speaker 6 (12:41):
Yep and Charlie So we write that every year. That's
something I started when I got here in twenty twenty
two was our first one. Charlie's got some travel and
as the snit's coming up, and honestly, the isn't there
for us to sit down and do it.
Speaker 1 (12:57):
They're not easy to produce.
Speaker 6 (12:59):
I know it sounds like we just put this stuff together,
but those things take weeks to do. So we're probably
going to do some kind of a revisit of the
past episodes of it and things you may or may
not have heard in the past for this Christmas, and
then bring it back new in twenty twenty six.
Speaker 1 (13:18):
And then what is that it's I know that any
any kind of programming of that nature requires a lot
more work than people realize. It's hon there was Jeffrey
and Charlie goofing around or so we would Yeah, I
mean we would write a bunch of sketches and you know,
games and things to do. So Miles would play music. Yeah,
Miles came in with a band last year. It was great.
(13:39):
So yeah, it's not there's nothing nefarious. It's no one's
being lazy.
Speaker 6 (13:42):
There's just people's schedules didn't allow for it this year.
Life gets in the way.
Speaker 1 (13:47):
Sometimes family and things travel, Like I said, come up
and you have to deal with it. So Christmas twenty
twenty six, perhaps it'll be back new, But there will
be something for this year. I will.
Speaker 6 (14:00):
I'm still working on some ideas. I've got twelve days
to put something together. So don't don't you stress.
Speaker 1 (14:07):
That's great. That's for me to stress. Say. That's not
a lot of time.
Speaker 6 (14:10):
No, but it's uh but again, I mean, I have
all of that stuff archived, so we'll probably put.
Speaker 1 (14:17):
Some kind of revisit together. I'm gonna talk to Miles late.
You've got the scripts probably leather bound and from from
the l signed from the first three. Yeah. No, oh,
there's been three of them. There's been three of them.
Speaker 6 (14:30):
We did, we did, we did twenty two, twenty three,
and twenty four this year. So yeah, I mean, look,
we started talking about this every year. We start talking in.
Speaker 1 (14:38):
Like, you know, summer time probably yeah, you know, September, October,
and uh, this year, we knew pretty much right away
it was going to be a tough, tough thing to
pull off.
Speaker 6 (14:47):
So it'll be back. Nothing to uh stress, No one's
being late. I've heard that.
Speaker 1 (14:53):
It'd be good. Damn lazy.
Speaker 6 (14:55):
I don't know what is lazy you have to do
with that we didn't take the time to sit down
and write it and put it together.
Speaker 1 (15:00):
Yeah, but that's extra stuff, Like it's not no, it's
not required to be produced. It's that's not how people
see that value added. Well, and that's the double edged
sword with giving people something that it turns out they
end up really enjoying, is that when it's something they
didn't have before and then they have it, and then
if they don't have it again they get all angry. Well,
and the part that was the worst for me, honestly
(15:21):
is that something that that was an idea that I
had that I went to Charlie with and like people
were given Rover crap for it that it wasn't getting produced.
Speaker 6 (15:29):
I'm like, Rover has nothing. That's an MMS thing. Rover
had nothing to do with. He called into it last year.
He was he was a wed things at London maybe
so he was a part of it, but no, that's
that's something that I put together for and dependent of
the show. Correct, So it's it has nothing to do
with his show, your show, anybody. It's just it's cast
members of that show putting together a Christmas special.
Speaker 1 (15:51):
So yeah, we'll be doing stuff on Christmas. There will
still be some fun stuff to listen to. It just
won't be as it has been in the past few years.
Jimbo from Alamagordo, one of our bureau chiefs out there,
listens on iHeartRadio. He said, I somehow know all the
words to oldie timey Christmas, but I can no longer
remember the lyrics to real classic Christmas songs. And I'm like, well,
(16:16):
that's not accidental, that's by design, Rob. You know you've
got to make room for the new classics. People who
are listening on the app can leave us messages.
Speaker 14 (16:27):
Hipiebes mothersmucker here. I know we get treated by aggravated Alan.
We get raging Rob every other day. That ends in
why I'm curious about Sweet jesss Do we get an
aggravated Jess? Like what makes her blood boil? She seems
(16:48):
so chilled, so down to earth and easygoing. Love that
love that for you, But I want to know what
really ticks her off?
Speaker 1 (16:57):
Huh. I guess I don't know that we've gotten. I mean,
when guys try to grab her when she's on stage
when she's performing what anybody well, but still it's not
something you enjoyed.
Speaker 10 (17:07):
Yeah, No, honestly, it takes a lot to make me mad,
like a lot.
Speaker 1 (17:14):
Well mad, Yes, but annoyed annoyed, I don't even know.
I gotta think about it. Problem is, and this is
where my brain went originally. I don't know that I
can come up with a synonym. We're angry that starts
with a J. Rob. I don't know that there's one
in there. There's aggravated Alan, you know, I love alliteration. Yeah,
there's raging rob. My brain as mother Smucker was talking,
(17:37):
was what starts with the Jay and Jerry j Jarry. Oh,
she's still thinking about those old cars. She had jittery,
But you're not jittery. I don't know, like jittery like ooh, imagitated,
I don't agitated. Okay, it takes a lot to get
you bent out of shape, it really does. That's good.
That's good. Your limits will be tested here.
Speaker 4 (17:58):
Mm hmm.
Speaker 1 (17:59):
Okay, well then there you go, mother Smucker, and we
don't know what it's going to take. Jess might end
up being the most level headed of the three. I
would imagine, too difficult.
Speaker 10 (18:12):
Pet Peeves, Yeah, yeah, I guess things that just IRRITAK.
Speaker 1 (18:15):
Always got a million of those, right, I mean a
lot of people share some and some of them are
I'm always most fascinated by people who have really, really
like esoteric pet peeves are like, you know, I really
don't like when somebody like eats their peas one at
a time, like that kind of stuff. That's very entertaining
to me because I have a billion pet peeves, but
they're usually super nerdy and there's nothing that anybody be
(18:37):
able to relate to.
Speaker 6 (18:38):
I love how I took the took the sniper bullet
in that too. She's all nice sounding.
Speaker 1 (18:43):
Oh, I think it's so cute when we get aggravated
alan and rage and rob every day that ends and why?
And I'm like, come on, yeah, right, you know what
she said. Every day that ends and why? Don't give
me why.
Speaker 14 (18:57):
I'm curious about.
Speaker 6 (19:00):
How about this mother smucker? Don't poke the bear right,
then I'll be fine.
Speaker 1 (19:04):
How's that? Don't do it?
Speaker 9 (19:06):
He's getting mad?
Speaker 6 (19:07):
No, I'm getting ornery. It's difference. Gotta have it moist.
It's right, just leave it moist. Everybody's fine.
Speaker 1 (19:15):
Anything can be fine. I was reading about the country
of Latvia. They have a big man shortage. They got
a big problem where the female population far out numbers
the male population. Now, I don't know what put them
front and center in this story because there were probably
a lot of countries like this, but the country of
(19:36):
Latvia is in a full blown man drought, is what
they're referring. They've got, and so the point of this
article was not just that, but it has sparked a
new industry. Necessity is the mother of invention in all things.
And they have guys who are kind of renting themselves
out for the husband experience. You know, you've heard of
(19:58):
the girlfriend experience, right, you want to you get yourself
an escort and you pay her top dollar and she's
with you for seventy two hours. And you know, they've
had television shows and movies to that effect. The girlfriend experience.
It's not just her, you know, comes up and saddles
your noggin for a couple of hours. It's like, you know,
she's going to dinner with you, and she's meeting some
of your friends or whatever. So there are guys there
(20:20):
in the country of Lotvia who are kind of flipping
that script and doing the same thing and renting themselves
out as hourly husbands is what they But you know,
hell wants to deal with that.
Speaker 6 (20:30):
I mean, I'll go over and do it but could
you imagine, Hey, husband, I need you to change out
that ceiling fan. He's gonna have me raging, just screaming
at in adam at objects.
Speaker 1 (20:39):
I hate this goddamn house. You want this, and you
wanted this husband experience.
Speaker 3 (20:43):
Here it is.
Speaker 1 (20:44):
Here's the husband experience. Just breaking things, throwing, screaming this
goddamn it in Latvian. No less right, yelling in Latvian.
Obviously they're going to understand. But didn't you misunderstood assignment?
This is not what I want, they said. Among seniors,
the divide is even more dramatic. Women over sixty five
in Latvia outnumber men two to one. But you know
(21:07):
what if you've never been to Latvia and I haven't.
One of my best friends is lot Vn and the
culture is it's like the sound of music. It's pine
forests and it's folk songs and it's all you know,
everybody walks around like the movie Midsummer and I would
have to think, listen, this is a country. Can we
(21:30):
export all of our in cells? You know what I mean?
And this is all these Andrew Tait Nick Fuentes acolytes, right,
all these dudes who just can't get laid and somehow
that's your fault. Ladies, Uh, what can we export them?
Get them laid? And that's always the core of these problems, right,
(21:51):
they just don't get laid. It's as simple as that.
And so Lotvia. So they have lot Via and women
who are kind of hiring men to be play the
husband role, to do things that I'm not getting the
indication that it's particularly sexual. It's probably more like what
you're talking about wrong, Yeah, hey, could you fix the
ceiling fan? No, I can swear at it, and they say,
(22:14):
they go, there's really no mystery. Latvian men just don't
live as long. They smoke way more than women in
that country, and that men worldwide higher rates of obesity
than women. And so it's as simple as that. It's
not like they're just not like they're getting on planes
and flying out of Latvia.
Speaker 6 (22:33):
They want like the boyfriend experience. I think, I don't
think you want the husband experience, the like coming home,
long day of work, eating, taking a twelve minute dump like.
Speaker 1 (22:44):
I don't wonder that. I wonder why the difference is
so stark in Latvia, though, because the things that they describe, right,
guys smoke, poor diet. That's everywhere. That's this country, for
God's sake. So I know, obviously we have way more
people here than in the country of Latvia. But you know,
if your country doesn't have enough man, they'll hire them.
(23:06):
So I'm just again, I'm being cheeky with the export
the in cells. It's not like they would know what
to do anyway, but to play themselves. There you go,
we should go do it. Companies over there in Latvia
have programs like men with Golden Hands. Guys will show
(23:26):
up to fix leaky pipes. Rob, do you have pipe
it's leaking? I told this. It was called that.
Speaker 2 (23:35):
There is pipe need the fixing?
Speaker 1 (23:38):
Or do you need cabnets? Right there? I was sent
from leaky pipe company. You need help?
Speaker 12 (23:43):
Yes, I heard you had something needed to be mounted.
Speaker 1 (23:47):
Till that stupid American pussy trying to fix your ceiling
fan to get out day these home?
Speaker 2 (23:53):
Did these homes?
Speaker 1 (23:55):

of jolapenos that I've been trying to open for weeks.

My, so when this jar of halapennos for me? How
long have you been trying to open this jar of holapennos.
Speaker 9 (25:09):
It's probably been like three four months.
Speaker 1 (25:12):
So it's sitting there mocking you, and it's as of yet.
Speaker 10 (25:14):
Just sometimes when I'm feeling it, I'm like, all right,
today's the day I loosened it up enough and I
still can't get.
Speaker 1 (25:19):
You don't have one of those contraptions that you put
around like a collar that goes around a difficult jarliver.
You run it under water. I've done everything on the counter.
You don't have people in your life, I will bang
on the count. I asked my five months old, and
you just stared at me.
Speaker 6 (25:35):
Yeah, what about a neighbor.
Speaker 1 (25:37):

once in a while, No, can you skye.
Speaker 10 (25:41):
I'll just bring it over to someone's house and be like,
can you open bring it in here, I'll open it perfectly.
Speaker 1 (25:48):
One of us will open it. You are going to
be neck deep in fresh holapennos. I love eating jlapenos
from the jar. It's such a good snack.
Speaker 10 (25:55):
And then I get the jalapeno blues and then it's
not fun.
Speaker 12 (25:58):
It is such a good snack in middle night, and
then you spend all night's throat thing jlapeno blues.
Speaker 1 (26:04):
Yeah, your stomach hurts really bad. And you call that
the holopeno blues. Yeah, we call them the klopeno browns
hlapeno brown. By the way, he was a wide receiver
for the Colts back in the day. If you remember, Yeah, wow,
the jalapeno. So you'll eat holopagno's out of just straight yep,
no chaser out of a jar. And then you get
(26:26):
the hlopeno blues. Yep. Wow, I love spicy food. I
do too, but I've never sat there in ate jar
of halopen Yeah. I like them on food. I never
thought of them as a snack.
Speaker 9 (26:41):
And then your throat hurts because it's burning.
Speaker 1 (26:44):
Yeah, so you like that? Yeah, I'll drink the juice.
Oh boy, wow, you need to put it in some
margarita and you don't drink though. This is what it is,
rob this. These are the lengths to which people are
push when they're trying to maintain their sobriety. Just like
I love jalapeno juice and I need something to make
me feel alive off. Yeah, it reminds.
Speaker 9 (27:05):
Me of the Lord.
Speaker 1 (27:06):
The hulopano blues. Now, how long do those last?
Speaker 9 (27:10):
Could be? A day, could be. It's until you poop.
Speaker 1 (27:13):
Oh you don't know.
Speaker 9 (27:15):
It tells you.
Speaker 1 (27:16):
Till she has squirt, right, Yeah, you got to use
corn as a timer.
Speaker 10 (27:24):
I told everyone before I had Wesley that I was
gonna eat a bunch of corn.
Speaker 1 (27:28):
Yeah, delivery room poop, just shoot it across the pin,
ping ping, ping, ping ping ping, doctor's last day. Screw this.
I don't care how much I'm making. This sucks. I'm out.
He's like Danny Glover and lethol Weapons. I'm too old
for this. Yeah, he's retiring. He's sitting on a toilet
(27:49):
and there's a bomb on it. I'm too old for
this shrimp or the Hulopano blues. Yeah, it's like a laxative.
Speaker 9 (27:56):
You just don't know when it's gonna hit.
Speaker 1 (27:58):
This is a new one for me. All right, well good, well,
bring that jar in, Joe, I will. Yeah, I'm gonna
free this out for it, all right. I only got
a couple of more days left before we split.
Speaker 9 (28:10):
Yeah, and then it's a couple more beats.
Speaker 1 (28:12):
Without it's just staring at that jar mocking you.
Speaker 2 (28:16):
A Cox Show on one seven, call the Alan Cox Show.
Speaker 1 (28:24):
You met Allen? Oh my god, I forgot about Allen. Okay,
you have a white board.
Speaker 5 (28:29):
Two six seven eight one double oh seven or one
three four eighty one double o seven.
Speaker 1 (28:56):
Yes, Kamali A's are back on the floor tonight. They're
going to be in DC to play the Wizards. Seven
o'clock tip tonight, six thirty pregame minutes after we roll
out for the weekend, you'll get your Calves coverage here
on MMS. I will have the last pair of tickets
for you for one week from tonight. That's the back
half of that Calves Bulls series. First game Wednesday in Chicago,
(29:20):
then one week from tonight here at home. So five
ten this afternoon, last two tickets for that Calves Bulls
two game series here in Cleveland. But every single bucket
and missed shot and squeak of the snakes you'll hear
on WMMS, your FM home for Cleveland Cavaliers basketball. Hopefully
(29:43):
with a reduced rate of missed shots. That would be great.
That would be ideal, a reduced rate of missed shots. Yes,
the RRMS, I believe if you're keeping your data at home.
The Washington Wizards have thus far been a terrible time.
So we'll see what happens tonight. But MMS and on
the iHeartRadio app, you could listen to the Kabaliers game
(30:06):
tonight at seven o'clock. Hey Scott, Hi, everybody, what's going on? Scott?
How are you?
Speaker 3 (30:15):
I'll defer on that question because one wants.
Speaker 11 (30:18):
To hear that.
Speaker 1 (30:18):
Well, Okay, give give me a give me in as
much as you can be concise about. And I know
there's a lot of it's difficult to make these explanations succinct, Scott,
but just give us a brief update.
Speaker 3 (30:34):
I'm back at work. It's the first week back.
Speaker 1 (30:36):
Okay, back at work. And has that been difficult for you?
Speaker 11 (30:39):
Yeah?
Speaker 16 (30:39):
Actually got used to be a lazy bumman laying laying
in bed twenty hours a day trying to heal them.
So I feel like I worked eighty eighty nine hours
this week. Just I am sore in places I didn't
know what to hurt.
Speaker 1 (30:53):
Well, sure you've gone from zero to sixty, haven't you? Yeah, yeah, yeah,
but you're but you continue to be on the mend.
At least.
Speaker 3 (31:03):
The way it works is it's healed enough to where
it can be working. And first day I could.
Speaker 16 (31:08):
Tell already the process is starting again where it just
starting to dissolve from the inside. A little acid, just
acid dripping from the inside. It just just we'll see
what happens.
Speaker 1 (31:22):
You're doing what you're saying, Yeah, Rob, it's acid. Insofar
as the phrase acid dripping from the inside is a
positive thing, Yes, prognosis positive is what we're talking about.
All right, he's cosplaying the Alien movie franchise over there.
Speaker 11 (31:37):
Rob.
Speaker 1 (31:37):
Okay, Scott, how can I help?
Speaker 3 (31:40):
Well, two quick things.
Speaker 16 (31:42):
I heard you've talked about the Christmas Special and Rob,
I didn't know you you you did that because I
was there for that. I think it was the first
one he did, the first one with us. Yeah, yeah,
I didn't did I even like, did I meet you
that day?
Speaker 1 (31:55):
You did?
Speaker 16 (31:56):
I just must have not put it together then, because
I think the first couple of.
Speaker 3 (31:59):
Times I mix your all right, well, yeah, were you?
Speaker 1 (32:01):
It was?
Speaker 6 (32:01):
I was just you know, the background guy for the
first three years I was here, so.
Speaker 1 (32:06):
You know it wasn't wasn't that big a deal?
Speaker 9 (32:08):
Mm hmm.
Speaker 3 (32:09):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (32:09):
I feel like I thrust into the limelight. Golly. Also, well, first.
Speaker 16 (32:15):
On ar, Sorry, I always forget to tell you every
time I talk to you that I do like these
theme weekends, and I always how many times I talk
to you, and I keep forgetting. So I'm on the
phone now like these are these like seventies, eight, eighties,
nineties and whatever's they're they're teynically feel like I'm, you know,
an old man that likes it and relived the times
(32:36):
that were happy, so I keep keep the weekends going.
Speaker 3 (32:40):
I like those.
Speaker 1 (32:41):
Anything to make you a little happier, Scott, I will.
I will do them every weekend if they put a
smile on that face of yours. If we can stem
the tide of internal acid with the specialty weekends, right exactly, yes,
we'll do.
Speaker 3 (32:53):
So.
Speaker 16 (32:53):
Speaking of putting a smile on my face, so I'm
gonna have to get myself out to Latia, right, This is.
Speaker 1 (32:58):
What I'm saying now. A handful of did point out
to me on the text to go. You know, allen
me sadly, the shortage of a lot Van men is
probably because they're getting thrust into the war in Ukraine.
And that's probably no small thing either, but you know,
by and large they're like, yeah, these guys are otherwise
not in great shape. But yeah, get thee to Lotvia, Scott.
Speaker 16 (33:20):
I do. I do love me some Lotvian women. If
I can tell you a quick story, I won't get.
Speaker 1 (33:26):
Too you mean Lotvians, you mean a lot Vian hookers.
I mean they're women too. They're women. First, I know
there are women. I'm just saying, knowing Scott, as we do,
what's the likelihood he met a lot Van civilian. Probably
not probably she was probably in the business, right.
Speaker 3 (33:46):
Of course.
Speaker 1 (33:47):
Yes, I was really hoping. No, no, you think he's
walking down the street, mean the Latvian women. I think
I was hoping he had like a there was a
like a time in his life where he had a
lot Vian friend or something. Go ahead, Scott. He was
smuggling things into Estonia and he met a lady at
the border and they fell in love. On the shores
(34:09):
of the Gulf of Ringa, they fell in love, Rob,
All right, go ahead, Scott.
Speaker 16 (34:15):
So what are the odds you think I would have
met two loveing women that are both lovely women?
Speaker 3 (34:24):
You think that's, like God.
Speaker 1 (34:26):
What are the odds? Probably very very small.
Speaker 16 (34:30):
And then when I find out, you know, months or
a year later, uh one of them, let slip that
their sisters. Yes, yes, yeah, yes, like one of my
one of my pairs of sisters that I've been able
to spend time with them.
Speaker 1 (34:47):
Imagine being Eskimo's sisters, Intuit sisters with stripper Scott, Rob
and how it comes to Wow, that is not a story,
with all due respect, that is not a story that's
gonna want to get to repeatedly around the familial holiday
dinner table.
Speaker 6 (35:04):
They're together over a holiday sharing cigarettes. You would not
believe the other day, I have a man come and
I have a leaky foot, And I say, what is
wrong with foot?
Speaker 2 (35:13):
You have man with leaky foot?
Speaker 1 (35:15):
Do I have man with leaky foot? He talk about
nothing but acid springing from inside Bobby, and then some
of the acid came out and onto my face. And
I did not know what was this man?
Speaker 7 (35:28):
Scott?
Speaker 1 (35:29):
Was his name Scott?
Speaker 3 (35:30):
Yes?
Speaker 1 (35:31):
Yeah, my godness, we got to ask you about sisters
at top of friends sisters? Did he have you ride
him like pony and grab ponytail? Did he did he
tell you to get on his back and kick him
in the butt.
Speaker 16 (35:51):
It's funny because the way it works, like I don't
want to like peelback. That got too much, But they
make sure they being safe, so they you have to,
you know, provide references in the talk.
Speaker 3 (36:00):
To which I like, Hey, I got this request from
this guy that put your name down. Oh yeah, he's fine.
Speaker 1 (36:04):
Did he spend a lot of time peeling back her curtains?
He certainly, yes, he found my hidden stash of borsch
Oh boy, wait, wait, you we have we have we
have had sexual congress with the same American man. Oh boy, Scott.
(36:27):
He is a world traveler, the world of poon tanks.
He's like Jules vern over here.
Speaker 7 (36:34):
Wow.
Speaker 1 (36:39):
Yeah, all right, listen, Thank you, Scott, good luck, enjoy
the weekend, happy holidays. If we don't talk to you,
there's stripper Scott back at work doing his thing, trying
to keep his head above water. Is give him her
(37:04):
buddy Ethan up there in Rochester. He goes, Jesus, that
must be one hell of a jar of peppers. If
Jess has spent three months trying to open the same jar,
why wouldn't she just buy another jar of jullapanos. At
this point, I've got to think, and I don't want
to speak for you, kind of think it's the principle
of the thing. By now it is.
Speaker 9 (37:21):
It's the principal dedication, dedication.
Speaker 1 (37:24):
You can always go back to it, Just go get
another jar. In the meantime, I mean, all that jar
gets open, her nickname is going to be ingestin old
distress follow a little clunky, but I get it. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Speaker 9 (37:35):
The once I get it open.
Speaker 1 (37:36):
And you drink the juice and all of it, nothing
goes to waste right, waste, not want. She's got him
from Ruter to tudor rup. Even them peppers, and I
think they're extra spicy, right, I don't remember.
Speaker 9 (37:49):
I haven't looked at them in a long time.
Speaker 14 (37:51):
I have hot snakes, you guys.
Speaker 3 (37:54):
That's when the.
Speaker 1 (37:54):
Diary comes out, like a hot snake. Make some bubble
gut Pasnagg's holopaeno blues potato patata right, call whatever you want,
Stephen canton allan fun fact, the Chicago Bulls currently have
the longest losing streak in the league at seven games

in a row. Yeah that is fun, Steve. Oh what
a fun fact. Oh yes, thanks Steve. Thanks Steve. Yeah
that's no joke, though, bro. We were goofing about it
when he was on the phone. But imagine two Latvian
women who come to the conclusion they've both had sex
(38:37):
with drip. It was the first thing that popped into
my head. Yes, I have to tell you story, sister.
You would not believe what happened. I was. I was
in the room with man and foot begins to leak

he says, yes, this is normal for me. What you

fan of the show Too Close for Comfort. I was

Was that Little John and the Yin Yang Twins? Sure was? Yeah.
Speaker 6 (41:03):
They played at the uh the last CALVS game I
went to. They were the halftime entertainment. Oh yeah, the
Yin Yang Twins.
Speaker 1 (41:09):
It was great.
Speaker 3 (41:09):
All right.
Speaker 6 (41:10):
They did that song and you see all these parents
who have no idea what skeet skeet means. The kids
are singing it with their parents, and I'm like, oh,
that's just oh yeah, but it's just fun, I know.
But they're singing about oh, skate skate flying U.
Speaker 1 (41:28):
Stuff from the windows to the walls, from the windows
to the walls, till the sweat drips down. Where There's
got to be an AI version of the song, right,
hold on to the sweat drops und all right, listen
that's what she's playing on her hype playlist.
Speaker 10 (41:49):
No I add lib, Well, there's one baby song where
I add lib. I pretend I'm woll John and I'm
I put some little John sounds in it.
Speaker 1 (41:58):
Right, Okay? Go whatever turned down from? Yeah? Yes, turned down?
Speaker 13 (42:05):

Speaker 1 (42:06):
You play that for him?
Speaker 10 (42:07):
No, it's called one Little Finger. Oh oh god, no boy,
it's a baby's song.
Speaker 1 (42:11):
There's a documentary on HBO. I don't know if it's
premiering this weekend, but I saw I was watching something
and they had a trailer for it. It's called Happy
and you Know It And oh I started streaming on
Christmas Day and it's about it's a documentary about annoying
kids music. So they talked to the Wiggles. I'll tell
you the guy who's really mad is the guy who
(42:32):
did the original Baby Shark and then that that app
company stole it from him. Ye, that Pink Pong. They
took it, changed it, made tons of money on it.
This guy sued them, but he lost. He did it
back in twenty eleven, a guy named Jonathan Wright. He
was doing music as a Johnny only and here's his
(42:52):
initial original version of Baby Shark.
Speaker 17 (43:01):
Baby Baby, It all sucks.
Speaker 1 (43:14):
But I mean the guy the Cadence is wrong, Well
that's his version, and he said they stole it, they
made it better. Well he's how much harder is that? Yeah?
This guy's his dues are off is terrible. Nevertheless, it
was his song.
Speaker 6 (43:31):
Well you know what, they wouldn't have stolen it and
made it better if if if that group of people
that stole it released that they wouldn't have a hit.
Speaker 1 (43:38):
Yeah, I guess that's a good point. Anyway, this documentary
is called Happy and you Know It, and it's like
it's a lot of parents being like, yeah, this music
makes me want to blow my brains out, but my
kids love it. I'm so happy that my daughter, my
nine year old, was never into this kind of stuff.
She was never in the Baby Sharks. She never wanted
to hear kids bop. She didn't even care about She
(44:01):
doesn't care about what the hell is it called frozen,
couldn't care less about that stuff. She wants to watch
Bob's Burger's and The Simpsons and Gumball and and and uh,
gravity falls. I'm so happy speaking you've never had to
put up with that stuff.
Speaker 6 (44:18):
Happy and you know what did you ever see the
video of Craig Robinson doing it on on Jimmy Kimmel, No,
he curses, So if you're going to play, try to find.
Speaker 1 (44:27):
An edited version. He curses on Kimmel. On Fallon. Craig
Robinson is on Fallon and he starts to prime, but
he can't curse on Fallon.
Speaker 6 (44:35):
They believe, well, I think you get the unedited version
you search it that you don't.
Speaker 1 (44:39):
Get the Tonight Show for twenty fourteen.
Speaker 18 (44:41):
Yeah, it's it's so he does.
Speaker 6 (44:59):
The way that clip goes is he he actually sings
it the second time, so he's trying to take him
through and he goes, if you're happy, and you know,
clap your hands in the whole place, clasps and the
when he gets to stop your feet, he get if
you're happy and you know, and everybody claps again and
that's when he says, it's it's stomp your feet your
mother efforts.
Speaker 1 (45:14):
I think it was just classic. We go back a
low ways with Craig Robinson. He just had a birthday again.
I think he is one of the funniest dudes. Oh God,
is he funny. I think his stand up's great. Well, yeah,
but he made a big deal. He said he retired.
Well that was old. No.
Speaker 5 (45:27):
No.
Speaker 1 (45:27):
A couple months ago, he's like, I'm retiring from stand up.
Oh blah blah blah. Like he lost a bunch of weight, right,
he was keeping himself in shape. His birthday was like
a few days before Halloween, and but he was like, yeah,
I'm retiring. It was like in all like the you know,
entertainment blogs and stuff like that, he's retiring from stand up.
But now I seem to have a stand up again.
(45:48):
I'm happy about that. But I don't know what's going
on with him.
Speaker 3 (45:51):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (45:51):
I think he's amazingly funny, very very funny. Right, Yeah,
he just turned fifty four a couple of weeks ago. Yeah,
I love that clip. That was from twenty fourteen. You
said twenty fourteen, Holy cow. Yeah, he's from Chicago. Went
to ISU, did he really? He did Illinois State and
then he got a master's in education. He was a
(46:12):
teacher at Saint Xavier, which is a private college in Chicago.
But yeah, a couple of months ago, they were like,
Craig Robinson announces he's retiring from standap. So I wasn't
sure if that was a bit but I was like,
I mean, it's not like the guy does the road
really occasionally he would. That was the last time he
was on this show. I think he did hilarities, but
(46:33):
for the most part he just does like in and around.
LA was doing shows. I think once you make office money,
you probably stop touring hard for a while if you
don't need to, I would imagine. I guess he had
a show on that didn't last very long, and I
thought it was great. There was a The Craig Robinson
Show I think where he played a teacher. Yeah, but
(46:53):
then he had a show on Peacock called Killing It.
Did you watch that?
Speaker 3 (46:56):
I did not.
Speaker 1 (46:57):
It only lasted two seasons. It was him in this
Australia This I guess woman who's a real big deal
in Australia. This comedian named Claudia Doherty. And he's just
a guy who's living in Miami. He has a daughter
with his ex wife. His ex wife is deaf, so
the actress is actually death playing her. So there's a
lot of signing in the show. But he's trying to
(47:17):
find a way to make money and so he gets
on board that whole you know, the Python challenge in Miami.
Speaker 3 (47:24):
Yep.
Speaker 1 (47:25):
So he and this woman decide to go into like
the world of Python hunting. I don't think anybody watched it.
It was two seasons and then it got canceled, but
it was so funny called killing It. Yeah. Over on Peacock,
I think he's great. I'd watch him do anything the
hot Tub Time Machine. So as far as whether or
(47:47):
not to Kevin and Akron, whether or not Lil John
says Monroe in this I don't know and get low,
but you hear what you want to hear, right, mon Monroe, Monro.

Speaker 4 (48:47):
Any what's Up guesses may not understand what a tricycle
or a bicycle is, or know the names of cheese.
But I'm glad to hear she at least gets Seinfeld
references little any sign page.
Speaker 11 (49:03):
Guys.
Speaker 1 (49:04):
Golly, that has a bit of a problematic recreation there,
I little year. Yeah, Jess had two has had two cars,
both named Jerry Seinfeld. One was Little Jerry Seinfeld. Right, Hey,
is that your chicken making all that noise? Oh Jerry
loves the morning? Who little Jerry Seinfeld name my chicken
(49:30):
after you? Thanks? It's very sweet. But that is not
a chicken, of course it is. I picked it out myself.
Well you picked out a rooster. Well, that would explain
Little Jerry's poor egg production. Oh, Kramer, you are incorrigible.
You see Jerry Seinfeld popping up in the New Larry
David Show. I didn't know that. What's the new Larry
(49:52):
David Show. It's untitled yet there is. HBO was rolling
out kind of a montage of shows that are going
to be in the next year, in twenty twenty six,
and one of them is an untitled Larry David show,
and it looks like it might be did you ever
watch Drunk History? Okay, the Derek Waters Show. It looks
like it's going to be not that same premise, but
(50:17):
like a like a period sitcom, like he's in old
timey gear or something. Oh boy, I don't know how
to describe it. It's it's an untitled Larry David thing.
But one of the clips in the montage was him
and Jerry Seinfeld in like powdered wigs or something. So
that is part of the HBO slate six. Those guys. God,
(50:37):
it must be a fortune. I bet they're just doing
it for the love of the game at this point.
I mean that they don't need the money. Oh I know.
So it's like a matter of you know, but to
get them to do anything, you got it, there has
to be a massive amount of money attached to it. It
has to be You're probably right, but I still get
the vibe from both of those guys that they're not
They don't like sitting around, you know. Well, Larry David
(50:59):
back day famously he left Seinfeld before the show was
off the air, and so Jerry just ended up doing everything.
He was the EP, he was the head writer, all
that kind of stuff, and he talked about how very
difficult it was because before that it was him and
Larry David and Larry David was burned the f out
and was you know at the time. You know, when
we've talked about this, when you're in it, you're like,
I got to get out of this, and then you're
(51:20):
out of it and you're like, I got to get
back it in this. And I think that's what happened
with Larry David. I mean, Curb Your Enthusiasm was on
longer than Seinfeld. Yes, I think number of seasons and
length of time because he would take like five six
years off in between seasons. But I think he did
eleven seasons over the course of twenty years.
Speaker 6 (51:38):
Oh, he's teamed up with the Obamas for this. The
Obamas are executive producing the show and it is a yeah,
there's no name on it yet, but it says it.
Speaker 1 (51:47):
Is a.
Speaker 3 (51:50):
Where the hell I just.
Speaker 1 (51:51):
Flew by it. Oh yeah, it's just how white folks
will do you A sketch comedy limited series about American history,
So sketch comedy. It's going to have that curb vibe
to it.
Speaker 6 (52:01):
So it's probably gonna be that Larry David unscripted type
of thing, which.
Speaker 1 (52:05):
Is going to be great. That's just how white folks
will do you. Well, listen episodes. Nobody wants to teach
actual history in school anymore, so they might as well
have some kind of Larry David tinged comedic parody history.
It'll teach history still kind of sort of yeah, maybe sure,
what's the deal with suffrage? David will also star in
(52:27):
all six episodes. There you go, a limited series. Oh man,
I can't wait. Congratulations. I always want new stuff from
those guys, little Yarry Seinfeld. Have you been reading the
Liam Neeson story?
Speaker 3 (52:42):
No?
Speaker 1 (52:42):
Okay, So Liam Neeson is catching flak because he narrates
some documentary you know RFK cap'n Brainworm over there, who's like,
you know, decimated the CDC. These guys have all kinds
of like manufactured claim about crayons cause autism and you
(53:02):
eat horseworm or all this crap, right, RFK Junior, anti
vax the whole bit. Well, I guess they did a
documentary called Plague of Corruption and Liam Neeson is the narrator,
and people are like, what the hell is this? Because
Liam Neeson has always been very pro vaccine. He does
work for UNISEF around the world. He's a very like
(53:24):
upfront guy with that kind of stuff, and people are like,
did he get tricked into doing this? Because that has
happened before, where they'll get prominent people to narrate or
be part of a documentary and then in the editing
process it's something completely different. And so people are like,
did Liam Neeson? What's going on here? So he's had
(53:45):
to try to do damage control over this thing and
be like, no, I'm very much in favor of vaccines
and it's a remarkable part of the human history and
blah blah blah. And so they're like, why is he
a part of this documentary? And he doesn't quite explain.
I mean, listen, you can do whatever you want to do.
Well when you len, when you lend your name to something,
(54:09):
people assume that that is an endorsement of it. I
remember about ten fifteen years ago there was a documentary
called The Principle, and it was all this fake science
about how, in reality, hor horror, the Earth is the
center of the Solar system, right, And they got this
actress named Kate Mulgrew, who if you're a Star Trek nerd,
(54:33):
she was Captain Jane Way in one of those Star
trek iterations. But Kate Mulgrew is a very accomplished actress.
She was in an Apple show last season called Oh God,
what was the Apple Show with? Where they were this
based on true story the Philly guys running the Dope.
(54:53):
I didn't watch that. I heard about that though. It
was called Dope Thief. It was great Brian Tyree Henry
and yeah, it was really good called Dope Thief. Him
Diego Mora and Kate Mulgrew is in it anyway, long
time ago. Kate Mulgrew narrates and they talked to a
bunch of prominent scientists and astrophysicists, guys like Michio Kaku
(55:14):
and Larry Krause in this documentary, and all of them
are like, oh, they re edited this whole thing. We
had no clue it was gonna be like this pseudo science,
made up crap documentary. But their voices were in it,
their faces were in it. So people were like, is
this what happened to Liam Neeson? Liam Neeson probably just
(55:37):
saw a paycheck. To your point, those guys aren't making
twenty million bucks a movie anymore. I know they're not.
But he does so many movies now does he need Maybe?
I don't know what the guy's life is. You know,
I don't either. That's that's the thing, right, Like how
much you think he made to do Naked Gun, which
was not good? Well, I've tried to watch it twice more.
(55:58):
Oh god, it was not good. It wasn't And I
was so bummed out because I really really wanted anyway.
All the people around AREFK. Junior, by the way, keep
trying to drill down this thing that like, he's not
anti vaccine, he's anti bias and blah blah blah. He
doesn't know what the hell he is. Well, we do
know what he is. He's not a medical professional or
(56:19):
a scientist of any stripe whatsoever. But he's running the CDC. Okay, fine,
that's not even like a scandal anymore, because everybody in
position in this current administration has zero business being in
their position. But Liam Neeson narrating this documentary. They're like, yeah,
I don't even know where you watch the thing. I
(56:39):
don't know if it's a YouTube thing. I don't know
if it's going to be in theaters. I have no idea.
But he's doing pr on this now. He's like, I
don't know that. He did really explain he's just like, no, no,
I'm not anti vaccin that. But I wonder how many
people down the list said no before they got to
(57:01):
Liam Neeson.
Speaker 3 (57:02):
Yes.
Speaker 1 (57:02):
Did you see the speaking of not wanting to explain things,
did you see the Gene Simmons interview. Uh, he was
walking the red carpet back Kennedy Center Honors and where
the guy says, how do you feel that Trump is doing?
And he goes why does it matter?
Speaker 6 (57:16):
Yeah, and he goes into a whole diatribe Simmons style.
Speaker 1 (57:20):
I'm here with a perfectly fine sexy woman tonight, and
I don't understand why you would care there. Shannon Tweed, Yeah, yeah, yeah,
what do you He's it is? It's the well epitome
of Gene Simmons answer. But also here's what I'll say
when when when you're a reporter on the red carpet,
I guess you have to make a split second decision.
(57:42):
Am I gonna ask Gene Simmons A Am I going
to try to get an incisive and substantive answer from
And you're not gonna like you? Why would you? So?
People are like, oh, that's a gotcha question. It's not
a gotcha question. It's a perfectly valid question to ask
a guy, just not Gene Simmons. No, because who cares
(58:03):
what Gene Simmons? I like Gene Simmons, but really, to
Gene Simmons' own point, why do you care what I think?
Speaker 3 (58:10):
Yeah?
Speaker 1 (58:11):
People used to speak their minds in a booth. No, well,
you're right here out asking me questions like he's not
the guy drives a twenty twelve Honda Pilot. He calls
us all the time. Isn't it twenty fourteen? Maybe you
feel like it's a little newer. Oh I think twelve
might be a little old for Gene Simmons.
Speaker 18 (58:26):
Yeah right, yeah, Gene Simmons, of kiss end of myself.
Speaker 1 (58:30):
Yeah, yeah, I thought it was. I thought it was.
It was funny because it was clearly a guy who
did not understand who he was talking to asking that question.
Speaker 3 (58:38):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (58:39):
You just see Gene glaze over instantly. He's like, yeah,
here we go. Mm. Yeah. So have you talked about
Gwen Stefani and the Hallow app? I saw that. No,
but it's her thing. She does a Jesus app, Gwen
Sefani's way into Jesus and she married Blake Shelton. That's
not by accident, right, you have similar values to somebody
(59:01):
that you're going to marry. And she was with when
she was a younger woman. She's with Gavin Rosto for
many years, I think that. And she got older and
I'm sure something's changed in her life and she married
Blake Shelton and she's very, very into Jesus and so
as a result of that, there's an app, Prayer app,
and so you'll see a lot of her promos on
social media. That's fine. I'm a problem with that. I
(59:24):
think it's hogwashed, but it's her life. She can do
what she wants. It's a paid app, too, and I
don't know why people are giving her a hard times.
Is that what it is?
Speaker 3 (59:32):
Yeah?
Speaker 1 (59:33):
Oh it's paid. Yeah, but isn't every app paid? I
don't know every single app. Now, if you want more
than the basic fundamental functions of an app, they give
you the bare minimum of everything and then they go, hey,
it's only five dollars a month from here on out.
Speaker 3 (59:47):
Yeah.
Speaker 6 (59:47):
I think it's I think people are just pissed off
just with Gwen Stefani.
Speaker 1 (59:52):
But I don't know why. I don't know why we're
playing around the nineties. Weekend yes, we are. I don't
have I've met Gwen Sefani on a couple of occasions,
I mean many years ago, and I mean she was
a lovely person. I don't care what she believes. I
don't either, as long as she's not trying to hammer
those shoes on other people's feet.
Speaker 6 (01:00:10):
People are giving her crap though, over the fact that
she's the girl power woman or was, and then it's
you know, the app is a lot of you know,
anti abortion content, that sort of stuff fueled by the whomever, right,
and they're saying that that's where everybody's flipping out again.
Speaker 1 (01:00:33):
I couldn't care, Like, yeah, but I don't care, right,
But it's like, you're gonna have the usual suspects associated
with this kind of stuff. You're gonna have when Sefani,
you're gonna have Mark Wahlberg. He's a big Jesus guy too.
I think they were doing so when they first rolled out.
I think they were doing stuff with the Russell brand,
and then he got that rape beef on. I mean,
they were like eyes. That's no idea right now. Listen, man,
(01:00:57):
I don't believe in any of this stuff, but if
you do, that might be a valuable app for you.
I don't know.
Speaker 6 (01:01:03):
Seventy bucks a year offers Catholic prayers, meditation, and Bible stories,
which has been criticized for its conservative, anti abortion focus.
Speaker 1 (01:01:11):
But that's what a religious app is going to be.
I grew up cast. Yeah, that's what that's going to be.
It's not gonna everybody thinks that, like, since Pope Leo
is the pope now that the Catholic Church is like, hey,
what's up everybody? You know, they think that the church
is like POUCHI from the Simpsons or something.
Speaker 6 (01:01:27):
You know, people definitely got Yeah, they thought there was
going to be a lot more moving and shaken.
Speaker 1 (01:01:31):
I think with because the Pope was American. That's not
going to change the church. The pope is the most
popular guy that nobody pays attention to, right, I mean, yeah,
there's some novelty that he's from the United States. I
love that he's from Chicago. I love that. But it
doesn't change, you know, Catholic Church. So it doesn't change
(01:01:52):
the function of what's been And so you either stay
with that or you grow up and you get out.
And you know, Gwen Stefani, somewhere along the line, she
got BRILLIANTO Jesus. Probably part of her association with Blake Shelton.
That's fine, that's what I don't care. I didn't even
know what it was until I saw her. No, the
(01:02:12):
algorithm was putting that in as an ad for something.
I'm like, Okay, that doesn't affect me. But there's a
lot of people who might enjoy that. And you're going
to pay for most apps now, doesn't matter if it's
prayer app you're gonna it's a business. It's still a business,
just like the Catholic Church. It's a business. And so
(01:02:33):
and by the way, put your money where your mouth is. Uh,
you don't think all it's us worth a couple of ducats.
I mean, I think of it as tithing. How about that,
it's twenty first century tithing, stefani. If it's moving my
prayer to the top of the list, I'm paying, I'm in,
oh like special dispensation. Hey look, I paid seventy bucks
(01:02:55):
for this JC. Yeah, I'd like some special attention paid
right some to consider. Yeah, but I don't have a
for whoever asked me that in the text. I'm a
problem that word. If she's doing that's fine, and we
are playing some no doubt this weekend on the buzzard.
I heard spider Webs. Yeah, I heard the stands where
(01:03:15):
I play Spider Webs. Great song A wrap? Hey, Hope,
how you doing? How you doing?
Speaker 3 (01:03:25):
Man?
Speaker 1 (01:03:26):
I heard you guys giving when's the Fanny?
Speaker 6 (01:03:28):
I heard pay No one was giving Gwen Stefani a
hard time, Pope. I'm just letting you know we were
we were just reporting on the story.
Speaker 1 (01:03:37):
You know. I got a cut of every sale on
that app. Sure shot at rap I got a piece,
a good taste. I get a taste.
Speaker 6 (01:03:47):
I mean, seventy bucks a year doesn't seem bad. Do
you get Do you get special consideration on your prayers?
Speaker 1 (01:03:51):
Sure do.
Speaker 3 (01:03:52):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (01:03:52):
But I'm right at the top of the line, so
it gets right to you. And half off all ales
at Pelian Beef you on a month yourself. If I
don't leave in Chicago, how does this help me?
Speaker 2 (01:04:08):
It doesn't help you.
Speaker 1 (01:04:09):
But it's a part of the travel. And if you
find yourself there, you can get half off it. How
you beef, that's a good deal. That's a great you think.
So yeah, yeah.
Speaker 6 (01:04:19):
So you see every single one of those prayers that
come through.
Speaker 1 (01:04:22):
I don't see him. They go directly. They went stea Fanny,
and then who she's like a part time something, and
then who yeah, And she sends them up to the
big guy stairs. So it just skips you. Excuse me,
I'm busy, rap all right, I didn't know. I mean,
you're the head of the church.
Speaker 6 (01:04:39):
I didn't know if that was an allowed a church
head of the app true thing.
Speaker 1 (01:04:44):
So she sends them to the big guy upstairs. How's
things going over at the Vatican? Nice time upstairs?
Speaker 19 (01:04:50):
I mean Elliot Wintrout, he's our head of business development.
Speaker 1 (01:04:56):
Are you getting settled in over the Vatican post?
Speaker 11 (01:04:59):
Sure?
Speaker 1 (01:04:59):
Am you liking it? It's all right? You got an apartment? Yeah,
I saw you. You were the first first one to
go back quite some time to the old, the old
stomping grounds. Yeah. I call it my paintball stabbing cabin.
Not that they're not like that. What is it you're stabbing?
Speaker 2 (01:05:18):
Yeah?
Speaker 1 (01:05:18):
Well, man, staving things gotta go right. There's a lot
of prayers coming in, and I say, I beg any
sending to Gwenston Fan. All Right, all right, okay, Pop,
all right, Pope, thank you, thank you, Pope. All right, Pope,
thank you pop. Yeah, well listen. One of the first
(01:05:40):
times we spoke, he told me not to call him
by those formal names because I said you, I said
Pope the first time. He's like I like Dan and
he didn't want you calling him your excellence, your eminence.
Speaker 13 (01:05:53):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (01:05:53):
Yeah, Well he's very unassuming. You know, that's part of
that Midwestern charm. He's he's something I'm really I'm always
thrilled me, he joins us. Well, time out of his busy.
I don't want to know what he's stabbing, is all right,
I uh have got to take case. Yeah, well, some
things are better left unanswered, rob, like they told us
(01:06:15):
in Catholic school anytime they didn't have an answer. Well,
it's a mystery. Oh great science. The Allen Cox Show on.
Speaker 2 (01:06:23):
One hundred point seven.
Speaker 5 (01:06:28):
Point seven WMMS Cleveland called the Alan Cox.
Speaker 1 (01:06:32):
Show, and then the radio started playing, which made it even.
Speaker 5 (01:06:35):
Worse to made it more bizarre two one six seven
eight one double oh seven or eight three four eight
one double oh seven.
Speaker 1 (01:06:44):
Yeah.
Speaker 8 (01:06:47):
When I started grammar school, I used to stop off
in the best of you every time that bell ordering,
I'll take out my dang ing ling, oh dinging.
Speaker 1 (01:07:06):
I always thought the song had a happier tempo to it.
Speaker 11 (01:07:10):
It does.
Speaker 1 (01:07:11):
Yeah, there's a live version that was the live version,
is it?
Speaker 3 (01:07:16):
Yeah?
Speaker 1 (01:07:16):
I thought that there was the one you're talking about.
I think it was the one I was looking for,
but it couldn't has the crowd singing along with it. Yeah,
Chuck Berry and Steve Miller one of them. Anyway, somebody
sent me that today is National ding Aing Day. I
don't know what that means, but I guess when Chuck
Berry took a break from farting in Oaks faces, he
was singing songs for people in between water sports moments. Yes,
(01:07:41):
well listen, he was a guy who took life by
the horns, rob and really it's one way to put it. Yeah,
December the twelfth, National ding Aling Day. Every day has
a day, and some of them make more sense than others.
You know, if you work for the National Brock Council,
you got to figure out when you can have National
(01:08:04):
Broccoli Day. But Dingling Day on December the twelfth, and
nobody has the day to themselves.
Speaker 3 (01:08:11):
Right.
Speaker 1 (01:08:12):
It's also Gingerbread House Day. It's also the International Day
of Neutrality. Well, I don't know how to feel about that. Hmm,
pretty neutral. It's also National Ambrosia Day. Wouldn't that be
around Thanksgiving? There was no ambrosia at Thanksgiving dinner this year.
(01:08:34):
I thought you meant it was just a band celebration day.
I mean, it absolutely should be. But you know, pre Thanksgiving,
I was going off on this whole big tirade about
how my grandmother used to make ambrosia or frozen Waldorf salad,
that kind of stuff, and my mom, in her infinite wisdom,
historically has tried to recreate some of my grandmother's dishes.
(01:08:58):
I don't know if it's because their labor intensive. I
don't know if it's because everything was prohibitively expensive. In
the Trump economy, everything's terrible, and so I would imagine
that those pineapple chunks and Maraschino cherries aren't gonna buy themselves.
Rob there was no ambrosia at the Thanksgiving dinner table.
(01:09:21):
On the subject of Gwen Stefani and that Catholic prayer
app Mike and parm Text said, I am a holy
app girl. I am a holy app girl, ah instead
of hollow batgirl. Isom would yeah, yeah, So maybe you're right,
Maybe it is ambrosia. The band day, it's got to
(01:09:41):
be right. I don't think so. It should be. These
guys were hot for a minute back in the day,
and when people hear the song, they go, oh, I
like this song, but they have no idea who did it?
How much I feel of course, that was another big
one from Ambrosia. This is something that'll show up on
one of your yacht rock playlist.
Speaker 9 (01:10:02):
This one's a bop.
Speaker 1 (01:10:05):
I don't know how this whole business. What what's the
demarcation line? How do you distinguish between a banger and
a bop? Because I don't want to misuse them person
saying it is that as simple as that your personal preference.
I always think of a banger as being more uptempo
or a bop you can really just kind of like
(01:10:26):
vie with Yeah, you can vibe with that. You can
get your shoulders and your head into it. And you know,
is that fair to say?
Speaker 11 (01:10:32):
Right?
Speaker 1 (01:10:32):
Nobody would go, oh, this is a banger. You'd say
this is a bop. You could say this is a banger.
Would you head bang to this?
Speaker 12 (01:10:39):
No?
Speaker 1 (01:10:39):
But I don't have a head bang. I don't head
bang to anything. I mean, I'm a pretty laid back
metal head, which I'll tell you what jes like that. Well,
never theless, uh, you know, we do a metal show
here on the Buzzard. Funny you should mention that tomorrow
night it'll be our last two hours to midnight of
(01:10:59):
the year of twenty twenty five. Rob, we won't even
return live to the Friendly Confines until January the tenth.
Me and Corey Roddick and Pat Butler come in here
on Saturday nights and we do one hundred and twenty
minutes of nothing but metal. And we got some local
stuff this weekend. There's a local band called ten thousand
Rambos and the song we're gonna play from them is
(01:11:22):
fifty eight seconds long. That should give you a little
idea of what to expect. We're gonna play a band
called Frog Mallet. We're gonna play Cleveland's very own Chimera.
We gave away a bunch of tickets for Chimera. Christmas
the sixteenth in a series with them might be the last.
(01:11:42):
From what I'm hearing, Iron Reagan if people go back
with them. Some Christmas music from Rob Halford, frontman for
the band Judas Priest. You know he has his own
band called Halford and Robbie does a version of the
song We Three Kings and so so a couple of
nods to Christmas music and if you're into not everybody
(01:12:06):
likes heavy metal Christmas music. Rob Halfred is not one
of those people. He loves heavy metal Christmas music.
Speaker 13 (01:12:16):
Wow.
Speaker 1 (01:12:20):
Yeah, yeah, that's a pet Butler pick. So anyway, Tomorrow night,
ten midnight, two hours to midnight is our metal show,
last of twenty twenty five. Today's the birthday of one
Patrick Butler. It sure is so happy birthday. Congratulations Pal,
you did it. He made it. Speaking of our friends
(01:12:41):
and colleagues, I believe one Marcus Nolan Esquire and Jennifer
Pachano are still in the middle of their radio thon.
Speaker 6 (01:12:48):
Yes, yeah, they're over on Magic Clinic. Yeah, for Cleveland
Clinic Children's.
Speaker 1 (01:12:53):
I came in here as early as I usually do,
but this morning I was able to get into the
studio because they were over there doing their thing. Yep,
they weren't even in here, and so that it's an
all day broadcast for Cleveland Clinic where they're raising money. Yes, yes,
hot on the heels of our friendly Anne doing the
Saint Jude's thing.
Speaker 6 (01:13:13):
Right correct yet golly. End of the year, she raised
like one hundred and fifty five grand or something like that.
Speaker 3 (01:13:18):
Ye.
Speaker 1 (01:13:18):
Yeah, Lean's awesome, man. That's just probably by smiling at
people she was able to raise that money. She's delightful,
it's charming, and she's great lovely. Ellen, you guys should
play some Tomb of Feces. I haven't. We haven't produced
any new music in a long long time, and so
(01:13:42):
no Tomb of Feces there. I'll play these guys. The
project for you, huh? Was that a side project? Tom
Ofs was my death metal band. A listener was kind
enough to make me a custom drumhead for my kick drum.
But my craft work you're thinking of my kind of
craft work side project, it's called Stinkinhosen. That's the one. Yeah,
(01:14:04):
Stinkinhosen hasn't really done a lot of recent stuff either,
But tomafisis is. We've been on an extended a hiatus,
but we're looking forward to getting back to something. Who knows.
You never know what twenty twenty six will bring. Very exciting. Yeah,
you never do, right, Oh, I've got Brian for you.
(01:14:30):
Nice you want some Brian always? Now Again, this isn't
the song that he really does a lot with. But uh,
Brian's songs break out in a number of ways. One
of them is what the hell is this? Another one
is he's really making it his own. And then the
third one, when I put these into kind of little
mental silos, is he's pretty traditional with it. But can
you pick out the song? Sometimes they're real obscure, and
(01:14:53):
I think this one falls into that third silo.
Speaker 2 (01:14:56):
Well, you mean me in Montana?
Speaker 1 (01:15:02):
I won't see the mount dies your mm hmm reeny bells. No,
I do not know that song. Okay, you've never heard
meet Me in Montana. I don't think that I have. Okay,
should I have? Well, I mean it was a big
song mid eighties. It would have been meet Me in Montana.
(01:15:22):
Remember Dan Seals, Seals and Cross, Seals and Croft. He
was also England Dan and john Ford Coley. Well, I'm sorry.
His brother was Jim Seals. His brother was Seals and Croft.
Dan Seals was his own thing, Okay, like David S. Pumpkins.
And he was part of a band called England Dan
(01:15:43):
and john Ford Coley. My mom had that album I'd
Really Love to see You Tonight. Yep, that was him
but he did an album with Marie Osmond and Meet
Me in Montana was a big, big hit for them
where they duet it. It's brand new to me, man,
But Brian, this guy just pulls things out of thin air?
(01:16:07):
Did he? Did he stay true to what the og
sounded like?
Speaker 7 (01:16:11):
Kind of well, you meet me.
Speaker 1 (01:16:16):
Mont I won't to see the mountains, you're I mean
he didn't really, he didn't keep the tempo of it,
but I mean, why I assume that was gonna be
way slower? Yeah, meet Me in Montana was. Now, of course,
(01:16:38):
we have a lot of bureau chiefs in the great
state of Montana. That's a big sky country up there.
Speaker 3 (01:16:42):
Up.
Speaker 1 (01:16:45):
Let me find the song for you and see if
this would have been Yeah, the mid eighties and this
would have been a big duet hit for the two
of them. This is when Dan Seals was trying to
make the full on pivot from fondo seventies singer songwriter
(01:17:06):
to eighties country guy.
Speaker 11 (01:17:08):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (01:17:08):
That's he had a very smooth voice, you know, very
very raising my hand as a first time er here, man, Yeah,
never heard this one.
Speaker 2 (01:17:26):
Now.
Speaker 1 (01:17:26):
Marie Osmond, you know, when I was a kid and
Donnie and Marie were on. I had a big crush
on Marie Osmond. You know what, It's always kind of
the running joke, right her and Donnie, that her and
Donnie were But you know, she's had a lot of
work done as she does the nutri system or something
(01:17:46):
like that. But I think she still looks good. I
think Marie Osmond, who I think probably her whole body
is operated by a system of levers and pulleys. But
I think she still looks pretty good. She's now. Here's
the trouble you run into is that, ironically, in an
effort to stay looking young with cosmetic surgery, a lot
(01:18:09):
of times you can end up looking older than you are.
I'm not sure how to say that properly. I thought
that Marie Osmond was a lot older than she is,
just because she's had work done pretty consistently. She's only
sixty six.
Speaker 12 (01:18:22):
She's only sixty Sientnn says she's still tired, and it's.
Speaker 1 (01:18:27):
Good enough for me. She's sixty six years old. How
old will she be next year? Then? Oh, probably sixty
seven years seven next year. The pride of Ogden, Utah
and eight kids, five of them adopted. So she walks
(01:18:49):
the walk. But Marie Osmond, Yeah, she's had some anyway
back in the mid eighties. Simply no way to know
how many years ago that was.
Speaker 3 (01:19:00):
Alan.
Speaker 1 (01:19:00):
Can we get a best of Brian mashup? I mean,
I've got the one I've never like really updated it.
Speaker 7 (01:19:08):
But I make my living on the eve the news.
Speaker 1 (01:19:20):
News.
Speaker 7 (01:19:27):
We've all been speaker who's drive your.
Speaker 1 (01:19:47):
Why we call him the cowardly Brian? Things like Bert
Lar from the original original Wizard of Oz.
Speaker 13 (01:19:55):
For the tale what a lush I would show compush from?
Speaker 1 (01:20:04):
Oh boy, it's hard to tell them apart, right, Yeah, to.
Speaker 13 (01:20:08):
Be happy for your life.
Speaker 1 (01:20:10):
Don't make a pretty girl your west if you, from
my personal point of view, get an ugly girl to
marry you men sage advice. That was a tough one
for him. That was that was not his best word, No,
not really, not a creative liberty. Yeah, it's part of
his genius, you know, to day this, guys, to day
(01:20:30):
ninety to.
Speaker 11 (01:20:31):
Day, break all through the other side, Break all through
right right, break the other side.
Speaker 1 (01:20:49):
Now that's how you get the doors properly rated. Mm hmm.
You throw some Brian in there, and of course, as
it is Friday, a little under an hour, Rob will
do the Friday five o'clock finger bang Yes with Brian, Brian,
your thoughts, this is my actual penis all right, that's
not what I asked, But thank you the actual actual
(01:21:12):
Uh huh Alan, Who are your top five celebrities to
croak in twenty twenty six? Well, Andy Dick snuck into
my top five? Dick, I mean he is still hanging.
I don't know who's gonna When people ask that, I
assume that you mean not the usual suspects. Right, is
(01:21:35):
Dick van Dyke gonna die in twenty twenty six? If
he makes it all the way through twenty twenty five.
He's still going to the gym and stuff. He looks
good when he shaves. He looks good.
Speaker 10 (01:21:46):
Right.
Speaker 1 (01:21:46):
When Dick van Dyke lets himself get unkempt, you're like, oh, no,
somebody needs to buy that guy a sandwich. Where birthday
tomorrow is?
Speaker 12 (01:21:53):
Yeah?
Speaker 9 (01:21:54):
Wow?
Speaker 1 (01:21:55):
How did you know that? I looked it up? Oh
that question?
Speaker 9 (01:21:59):
I thought I read it a while ago and I
thought it was today.
Speaker 1 (01:22:02):
Right, he's one hundred tomorrow? What a guy? Diagnosis Murder
was a show he had about thirty years ago, and
I think they gave him a cameo when they rebooted
Mary Poppins years ago. Did you watch that? They did
a Mary Poppins thing with Emily Blunt. I think that's
who played her, And of course they threw him a
cameo nine the Museum. He's in those back in the day.
(01:22:23):
He's got a really really young wife. He's going to
be one hundred and his wife is my age. She's
fifty four. Boy married a woman named Arlene Silver. She
was his makeup artist. And you know, it's always got
to be a difficult line of questioning when they go,
(01:22:44):
how do you guys do it well? The age difference?
We don't and haven't. That's the entire time we ri
The woman has to be like, I've never seen his genitalia.
I've got he's forty six years older than me. What
do you want you gotta say? Clint Eastwood is probably
towards the top in that list are people who might die.
Speaker 6 (01:23:04):
Yeah, like you don't even really he doesn't even pop
out at stuff anymore, Like he's just that's. Last time
I saw him, he was doing the like pants up
to his teets, like reach for.
Speaker 1 (01:23:15):
His wallet over his shoulder, very thin not looking great.
Clint east Yeah, he'll be ninety six. Shatner Man. I
hate to say it, but Shatner's got to be top ten. Ironically,
Clint Eastwood was talking to chairs way before someone of
his age normally would be having conversations with inanimate objects.
(01:23:35):
Shatner looks all right because he's got a couple extra
LB's on him. Yeah, I think he's I think I
would put him in my top ten. But a lot
of these guys are smart because you don't realize how
old they are because the photos of them that still circulate,
they've got so many decades. And I don't mean like
stuff from the seventies, I mean stuff within the last
ten years. I remember how crazy it was after Gene
(01:23:59):
hack Men died and they were like he was almost
never seen in public. Somebody got a picture of him
and his wife in like downtown where they live, Albuquerque,
something like that, and he looked like he was two
hundred years old. And you go, oh my god, I
haven't seen Gene Hackman in forever, and there he is.
Speaker 6 (01:24:18):
You just forget about it, you forget oh right, That
was how I was when I saw the picture of
Clean Eastwood Sophia Loren.
Speaker 1 (01:24:26):
That's why I'm hoping that by the time we get
to be that age, the technology will have advanced to
the point where we can be wearing like Mission Impossible
style masks that render us with an AI face. So
people see us and go, oh my god, that's Alan Cox,
I think. And somebody else goes who, and they go
(01:24:47):
Alan Cox, and the person goes who, and they go,
you know, Alan Cox, and they go who, And uh oh,
I thought he was a lot older than that, but
look at his face. He's like a walking Snapchat filter.
Speaker 3 (01:25:04):
Why not?
Speaker 4 (01:25:06):
My problem with the Akron ribber Ducks is they'll be
responsible and not overserve you alcohol, but they will overserve you.
Speaker 1 (01:25:14):
Hot dogs and a gay gout all the time, and
you know it's their fault. Random random very We were
talking about the Akron rubber Ducks the other day. People
were worried they were changing their name because they're change ownership.
Gout from too many hot dogs, I guess. So, I mean,
I like hot dogs, but I can't imagine having so
many that you would get gout. You know, they're looking
(01:25:36):
for wienermobile drivers again.
Speaker 3 (01:25:38):
Love that.
Speaker 1 (01:25:38):
I do like to let people know about this a
couple of times. They do in the summer, and they're
looking for people for the spring or next summer or something.
If you've recently graduated college, you can apply through the
last day of January. They're looking for kids, they call
them hot doggers. They're looking for kids to drive the
Wiener mobiles. And ever so often you'll see them. There
(01:26:01):
used to be one or two. I think there's a
fleet of them now, but they every so often. You'll
see them in northeast Ohio.
Speaker 9 (01:26:09):
I always see them on the highway.
Speaker 4 (01:26:10):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (01:26:11):
It's a twenty seven foot long Wiener and you drive
across country and you make these stops. The brand ambassadors
would be hot dogs. Yeah, but they pay you like
forty grand and they and benefits. You get a per diem.
Imagine you're somebody working your ass off and you can't
get benefits at your job, but you get them temporarily
(01:26:33):
because you're driving the Oscar Meyer Wiener mobile around and
you're just socking the money away because they're giving you
a per diem full health benefits package, eighteen days of
paid time off and one hundred percent of your hotel
expenses covered, so you're not really paying for anything. Yeah,
(01:26:54):
you're socking away that forty grand you're getting that per diem,
but you can only eat hot dogs. I'll take it.
There you go, I'll take it now. They'll only pick
twelve people to join the thirty ninth class of Hotdoggers.
They've been doing this for almost forty years and the
ninetieth anniversary of the Wienermobile. So you can go to
(01:27:15):
the Kraft Heinz website and submit your application because only
a dozen of you, which is weird because Hotbog's coming
to pack a bight. The Allen Cox Show.
Speaker 2 (01:27:28):

Speaker 1 (01:27:33):
I met Allen visit, I gave him mari one oh great.
Speaker 5 (01:27:38):
The Allen Cox Show on one seven WMMS.
Speaker 1 (01:28:04):
Two one six, five seven eight one double oh seven
Join us Live or eight hundred and three four eight
one double oh seven three five one nine two send
me a text. Hell on you guys that have a
lot more time to do all the things Rob says
(01:28:27):
you don't get to do due to time constraints. If
you'd eliminate Brian and this horrible singing that adds up
just saying is what this person says, Just say it else.
Talk about Pet Peeves. Well, now, I'm just gonna want
to do it more, I know, right, And that's me
(01:28:49):
being a juvenile. Of course, absolutely, I will cop to it.
A lot of things I don't even want to do
until somebody tells me they don't want me to do them.
I have a deep seated mistrust of authority figures, and
yet I'm conflicted, Rob, because I understand the need for boundaries. Anyway,
(01:29:11):
whoever that is, sir or madam, you can huff my hole.
Brian ain't going anywhere, all right, Allan's celebrity death pool.
I bet Nicholson o'll go soon. You know what I
was just, why was I googling Jack Nicholson this morning?
Somebody mentioned him or he had come up as someone
who's I mean, he's been retired, but he's reclusive, and
(01:29:33):
I was like, how old now is Jack Nicholson. He's
got like six kids. He's eighty eight years old. And
this was a guy who back in the day was
obviously having dalliances with women much younger than him. Two
of his kids are with this actress named Rebecca Broussard,
who that was a big deal in the late eighties
that he was with her. She was an actress in
her own right, but she was like forty years younger
(01:29:54):
than him or something like that. But he was Jack Nicholson, right.
But you do get to a point, and I think
he was very mark to see it. You do get
to a point where, even if you're Jack Nicholson, you're like,
I don't want to be in public anymore because I
don't look the way I used to look. And so
now when you see him like court sided a Laker
game or something like that, right, he's very big and
(01:30:17):
he's Jack Nicholson. He's eighty eight years old. How dare
you put me in your death pool? Who the hell
do you think you are? I like some form of
dinnerware doing five Easy Pieces? Oh bitch, you can't handle
the truth. I was watching Five Easy Pieces not long ago,
(01:30:38):
like a few months back. This classic seventies probably early seventies,
Jack Nicholson. It's famous for a scene where he just
screams at this waitress. But he's a rich kid who's
trying to strike out and be an oil worker and
kind of get away from his overbearing wealthy family and
kind of cosplays as a redneck. But yeah, Nicholson's eighty
(01:31:03):
eight Alan I think Britney Spears will die in twenty
twenty six. See that's what I'm saying. That's the kind
of wild take here. Well, that's kind of wild card
that I think that you you know, these celebrity death
pools are kind of predicated on calls like that, right,
could Willie Nelson go yes? And I hope there's like
goddamn National Day of Morning when Willie Nelson goes Alan.
(01:31:25):
Of course, Jess knew how old Dick van Dyke was.
He's one of her hotties. Oh come on, yeah, crushes. Well,
she loves Stephen Tyler, who's a spring chicken compared to
Dick Vandyke. True, yeah, he's like Saty said, yeah, And
she loves Jerry Seinfeld. I mean he's seventy doctor Phil
(01:31:47):
Jerry doctor, not seventy years old? Sure is is what
I mean. Say is in good Jay. But Jerry Seinfeld said,
all those guys, all the comedians of that generation, like
Bill Maher, he's like sixty nine. I think. Nice. Yeah,
Jerry Seinfeld is seventy one years old. He'll be seventy
two in April. Why do I think he was like fifty?
Because he still looks good fifty and his wife's like
(01:32:09):
twenty five years younger than him.
Speaker 9 (01:32:11):
And you know he didn't book fifty to two.
Speaker 3 (01:32:13):
No, this show.
Speaker 1 (01:32:15):
The show was on in the nineties.
Speaker 9 (01:32:16):
Yeah, wasn't he like thirty then?
Speaker 1 (01:32:18):
No, he was like forty when that show was on.
I mean he was already he kind of got that
TV show late ish in his career. Jerry, are you
gonna go see hi when he comes back in February?
Speaker 3 (01:32:28):
Oh?
Speaker 1 (01:32:29):
Oh, I'd love to Playhouse Square February thirteenth.
Speaker 9 (01:32:32):
Ooh yeah, gonna write that one down.
Speaker 1 (01:32:35):
Super stalking. Three percent of tickets left, so it's all
most sold out. I didn't even know he was coming back.
I mean, he makes it through like every year here,
but I didn't know that he was coming back that
that soon. Jerry Seinfeld at the key Bank State Theater
Playhouse Square on February the thirteenth.
Speaker 9 (01:32:53):
Hot take. Though I don't think Jerry Seinfeld's funny.
Speaker 1 (01:32:58):
I can see that. I think Jerry so Heinfeld. I
used to get really upset when people would say they
didn't think Jerry Seinfeld was funny, but I had to
really take a step back from it. I appreciate Jerry
Seinfeld and I've seen him a handful of times. I
appreciate him primarily for his technique. And he's the first
one to say it. He goes, I'm not a guy
(01:33:18):
that you look at and just laugh. He's like, if
I didn't predicate my entire career on technique, there'd be
nothing funny about me. That's why he really needed Larry
David to make that TV show work. Yeah.
Speaker 9 (01:33:31):
I mean he's not funny, which makes it funny.
Speaker 1 (01:33:33):
I guess he's funny. He's funny, still funny. He's proven
to be funny because this is what I'm talking about. Technique.
He writes jokes and then he works them out until
they all work, and then he takes them on the road.
So he's so non he's so non precious about his material,
which a lot of comedians are. There's all kinds of
(01:33:54):
comedians that will you know, You'll see him do a
set and they'll go that joke never works, but I
love it.
Speaker 9 (01:34:00):
I had an ex and a lot of them. I'm
like Jerry Seinfeld when he would.
Speaker 1 (01:34:03):
Get mad, when he get his voice would go out, yeah.
Speaker 9 (01:34:06):
And I'd be like, dude, it's kind of hot. Stop
all these coming.
Speaker 1 (01:34:10):
Back together, right, that's why Jess got turned onto Jerry
Seinfeld's her boyfriend. Yeah, is it reverse engineered? They would
have makeup sex and you have to go. This feels
so good.
Speaker 9 (01:34:22):
It's like, stop, I'm not even mad at you anymore.
Speaker 16 (01:34:25):
Ah.
Speaker 1 (01:34:27):
Yeah, So you wouldn't go see him though, if you
don't think he's fine?
Speaker 4 (01:34:31):
Would?
Speaker 1 (01:34:31):
Okay?
Speaker 4 (01:34:31):
So why not?
Speaker 9 (01:34:32):
I've never seen him in person?
Speaker 1 (01:34:33):
So were you? Did you watch the show or no? Okay?
Speaker 10 (01:34:37):
And then I think this was God twenty seventeen or
something like that. I wanted to go see him, but
his tickets were sold out, so me and my friend
went to New York instead.
Speaker 1 (01:34:46):
Why would you go if you don't think he's funny?
Speaker 9 (01:34:48):
Well, I just want to see what he looks like.
Speaker 1 (01:34:50):
But you know what he Oh you mean really in
real life? I see no. Jerry Seinfeld has never been
one of my favorite comedians like comedy, but his approach
to the craft is unparalleled.
Speaker 9 (01:35:05):
He's iconic.
Speaker 1 (01:35:06):
He's super zen about everything, and he's just very very
pragmatic about everything, which seems counterintuitive to somebody who's in
a creative field. But he's he's like a surgeon. This guy,
h No, thank you no, she's trying to hug him.
Speaker 3 (01:35:22):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (01:35:22):
No, I mean his documentary Comedian from twenty plus years ago.
It's like it's required watching. So I love love Jerry
Seinfeld just for his technique and his perspective on the craft.
If nothing else, you go see him and you'll laugh
because it's genetically engineered to make you laugh. But when
(01:35:44):
people go he's corny, I fully understand what they mean.
He is kind of of a different uh generation, kind
of you know, there aren't a lot of twenty five
year olds at Jerry Seinfeld show, but he works these
sets to within a razor's edge. He knows it. Every
single one of those jokes works, and if they don't work,
(01:36:06):
he takes them out. It's not like they're his you know,
will make jokes so like my children, he's like, no,
if it doesn't work.
Speaker 3 (01:36:14):
You know.
Speaker 1 (01:36:14):
That's why the old joke about comedians want to be
rock stars and rock stars want to be comedians. I'm like,
rock stars do not want to be comedians because if
you're a comedian, you got to write new crap all
the time. If you're in a band, you can write
a handful of great songs and play them for the
next fifty years, so it's apples and oranges. Comedians have
to write new crap all the time. You can't go
(01:36:37):
out and just do your you know. That's why Seinfeld
years ago did that tour where he retired all of
his old material, like the airplane one. What's the deal
with airplanes? Airplane food? Oh? Yeah, Jess, yeah, Jess. And
you know what's the deal with tricycles? How many whales
(01:36:58):
are on them? Am I right?
Speaker 3 (01:37:00):
I mean?
Speaker 1 (01:37:00):
Is it three wheels of the wheel? Tricycle? Four?
Speaker 3 (01:37:06):
Yeah?
Speaker 1 (01:37:06):
I was answering a lot of email last night, many
hours after the show, as I'm going through my emails
and things of people who were flummixed by Jess's confusion
over tricycles.
Speaker 10 (01:37:17):
I did some deep thinking last night about the oh,
motorcycles only have two and then a four wheeler?
Speaker 9 (01:37:23):
Is that considered a quad?
Speaker 3 (01:37:25):
That is a quad?
Speaker 1 (01:37:26):
Okay, four four wheels?
Speaker 9 (01:37:29):
It been answer. My questions have been answered.
Speaker 1 (01:37:32):
She did some deep thinking about how many wheels are
on various vehicles. I'm still not sure where the confusion
came in, though, Like you're a twenty six year old woman.
When you were a child, I think you'd know what
a tricycle was, right, I had a bike, and how
many wheels were on that bike? Two?
Speaker 3 (01:37:51):
Okay?
Speaker 10 (01:37:51):
And then it only had one because I rode my
bike into a parked car.
Speaker 1 (01:37:58):
Okay.
Speaker 9 (01:37:59):
And then my little sister stole my bike after that
and she got hit by a car. She was fine.
Speaker 1 (01:38:03):
The bike wasn't one wheel. Now did you think that
that was Did you take that as what people call karma?
Her getting hit after she stole your bike? You no, that,
I mean, I just didn't have a bike at the end. Yeah,
she was very pragmatic about it.
Speaker 3 (01:38:22):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (01:38:22):
I didn't really wish her any old will I just
at the end of the story, I didn't have a bike.
Speaker 9 (01:38:27):
Yeah, she was fine, the bike was not.
Speaker 1 (01:38:28):
I mean, the bitch stole my bike. Yeah, I'm just
saying these two things equal.
Speaker 3 (01:38:32):
I don't know.
Speaker 1 (01:38:33):
Maybe you steal bad things may happen to you. I mean,
I happened to you. May happen to you.
Speaker 10 (01:38:41):
Then I found out it was my bike, I was like, Mmm,
can't have anything that's right.
Speaker 1 (01:38:46):
We can't have nice things. We can things. No, Alan,
I've got Michael J. Fox and Bruce Willis in my
celebrity death pool. But again, these are people who are
all I mean, Michael J. Fox has lived with his
condition for a long time. I mean that guy beat
most of the odds. Bruce Willis, Yeah, he'll probably go
in the next couple of years. Yeah, I don't know
what's going to be that quick though, honest. For Bruce Willis, yeah,
(01:39:08):
I mean, I mean, his wife does pretty regular updates
and it looks pretty aggressive.
Speaker 6 (01:39:12):
Right, But he's all it's doing is making his memory
go away. His physical body is still okay. It's the
same thing with with Parkinson's. That's why I wouldn't put
Michael Jackson, Michael J. Fox on the on the death
pool because he, like, Parkinson's isn't what kills you.
Speaker 1 (01:39:28):
My mother's husband just watched it. You get something that
takes you out. And Michael J. Fox, overly, for the
most part, is okay. With the exception of his Parkinson's.
It's infections of some sort, right, No, I know, and
I fully understand that. I'm just saying that you're saying
because Bruce Willis constantly has people around him, Like his
wife moved him into like an adjacent house so people
(01:39:50):
could so he would have care, correct, Ye, And I
think it's little kids, and the people can live for
a long time in that state.
Speaker 6 (01:39:57):
Yeah, he may not talk, he may not know who
anybody is, but he's being basically, he's being kept alive, right,
So I think people can live in that state for
quite some time.
Speaker 1 (01:40:08):
Do you think more people have Bruce Willis in their
celebrity death pool? Or do more people have die Hard
as not a Christmas movie? More people as not a
Christmas movie because it's not a Christmas movie. I mean,
it is. But what I'm asking fine, and it is
what I'm asking though, is do you think more people
have Do you think more people are of the erroneous
(01:40:28):
opinion that it's not a Christmas movie? It's not? So, Yes,
I do think that it is. So what I'm saying is,
I mean, since die Hard is a Christmas movie, you
think that all those people who don't think it is
the people who are demonstrably incorrect. You think that those
people outnumbered the people who have him in their celebrity.
Speaker 6 (01:40:46):
Well, I think the people that properly put it on
the not a Christmas movie list, I think that those
people do outnumber the people who think he will be
dead in twenty twenty.
Speaker 1 (01:40:55):
Six Yep, I'm going to beat the judge of this.
I'm going to watch die Hard you've not seen Nope, No, okay,
you should be. It's a great movie. It is a
fantastic me It's not a Christmas I mean, you don't
have to be the judge because the people who judged
correctly know that it's a Christmas movie. You don't have
to be there. I'm gonna take that pressure off your shoulders.
(01:41:16):
Sweet with the Christmas you will be because it's not
a Christmas movie.
Speaker 6 (01:41:21):
But anyway with it, Uh, with the exception of it
being at a Christmas party, what makes it a Christmas movie?
Speaker 1 (01:41:27):
I've got a real hot take for you. Home Alone
not a Christmas movie. Oh that's just ridiculous, dope. What
just because it's set at Christmas? Just because those guys
step on ornaments and what else happens around that they
celebrate Christmas in that movie. Nobody celebrates Christmas in that movie.
They lost their kid. No, they got back and celebrating
(01:41:48):
anything both one and two and with celebrating Christmas. Here's
your room service bill, sir, Right.
Speaker 11 (01:41:56):
Kevin.
Speaker 1 (01:41:59):
The tur Doves with the old hobo in the in
the in the park, never saw the second one. You
never saw the second movie. No, it's terrific. It's as
good as the first. I didn't like the first one.
You Gotta Go Get Home Alone is Boston, New York.
It is the one with Trump, right, yeah? Yeahs do
we love miners? I love miners? Oh yeah, he likes kids.
(01:42:26):
You shut your mouth about Diehard, Rob. There's a texture
I thought that was from you. No, should be Alan.
George Carlin did the same material for twenty years. He
very much did. Carlin wrote a new hour every year.
What are you talking about? All these whipper snaps now,
they're like, I do a new hour every year. George
Carlin was constantly touring new material. And the thing, well,
(01:42:48):
I think now he was less concerned with being actually
funny because he was just a cranky old get. But
I still loved him. But he absolutely did not do
the same material for twenty years. I think they might
be saying more the tone of his stuff, but years
ago every comedian has her own tone changed up a lot.
He did get grumpy at the end, though, boy he
(01:43:08):
sure did. And I still believe I killed him because
I had tickets to see him. Uh, And he died
I got tickets for my wife. Then my girlfriend got
me a tickets for my birthday to see George Carlin,
and he died the day before my birthday. I can't
believe you killed George Crown. Thank you, Rob, that's I mean,
thanks a lot. Why do you think I don't sleep
that well Jesus. To Rob's point, Gene Hackman would still
(01:43:31):
be alive if his wife hadn't died. See Chuck's point, Yeah, okay,
that's a good example, Alan, die Hard is not a
Christmas movie. If it is, so is the first Harry Potter.
The first Harry Potter took place around Christmas. Remember when
Harry Potter killed the terrorists. This is what I'm talking about, Alan,
(01:43:53):
tell Rob, there's an actual Santa hat in die Hard.
Ho ho ho, Now I have a machine gun. It's
a Christmas movie, all right?
Speaker 5 (01:44:05):
Not.
Speaker 1 (01:44:06):
Isn't funny though, that so many people argue over that,
whether or not, out of all the movies, whether or
not die Hard is a Christmas because die Hard too
is set at Christmas. Yeah, they went back to the well,
that's how much they go, guys. We have got a
Christmas mega hit on our hands, and much it came
out in June. You know, I do watch it every
(01:44:26):
year at Christmas, and I think that also helps define
what a Christmas movie is too, because they usually release
the Christmas Christmas side for you. John from Parma says,
Rob Huff my taint Die Hard is a Christmas movie.
I mean that's aggressive. No, that's really aggressive. Ze. I
(01:44:50):
mean we're just having a little disagreement over here. You're
entitled to have a bad opinion.
Speaker 4 (01:44:54):
You're and.
Speaker 1 (01:44:59):
Oh, hey, Trump, le's that about kids?
Speaker 11 (01:45:03):
Oh?
Speaker 1 (01:45:03):
You old criminal? Perv allan oldie timey Christmas is not
a Christmas song but a cautionary tale about domestic violence.
Well you could make the case for that too, But
Christmas is in the title of.
Speaker 3 (01:45:22):
The song.
Speaker 1 (01:45:23):
Is Better Off Dead a Christmas movie? Absolutely is? Okay?
Better Off Dead is a Lane maya Better Off Dead

Speaker 3 (01:47:19):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (01:47:20):
And the guy, the guy doing the Howard co Cell voice,
I think is the same guy that played Takanawa in
Revenge of the Nerves. Really, I think so Robster cross
that Yeah, yeah, what'sh what's a frush?
Speaker 3 (01:47:33):
Yeah?
Speaker 1 (01:47:33):
I think it's the same dude. And the actress, the
female the girl played The French Girl is an actress
named Diane Franklin. She had been in a bunch of
eighties movies. I thought she was. She's still alive. I
think still does, like comic cons and stuff. She was
so I had such a crush on Diane Franklin. Oh
my god, Better Off Dead boobs in that that was?
Was there a better Off Dead? I think so?
Speaker 3 (01:47:51):
Right?
Speaker 1 (01:47:52):
I love that movie. Boy, what a great great movie. Yeah,
not for kids though, and movies not for kids? Do
we love miners?
Speaker 5 (01:48:00):
Right?
Speaker 1 (01:48:01):
He's not for kids either. Don't tell him that The.

Cox Show one called the Allan Cox Show relieved himself
and did it all.

Oh, I can't wait. We've played them on two hours
of Midnight. I've been excited to see them get a
bunch of bands with them. So tap me on the head.
If you see me there, You're gonna talk the whole time. Yeah,
I'm gonna talk to These guys are really good, They're great.
I can't get over how good these guys are. Oh
my god, who's got a finger in my coin slot
right now? But I'm a shot Vinnie? Yeah, what's up? Vincent?
Speaker 3 (01:49:11):
Hello? Sir? What's up?
Speaker 2 (01:49:13):
Rob?
Speaker 3 (01:49:13):
Hi? So?
Speaker 14 (01:49:15):
Rob?
Speaker 3 (01:49:16):
Are you?
Speaker 7 (01:49:17):
Are you saying?
Speaker 1 (01:49:17):
As far as Diehard goes that it's primarily not a
Christmas movie because of the time of year that it
was put out in theaters?
Speaker 3 (01:49:24):
Is that the biggest No?
Speaker 6 (01:49:26):
No, I just don't think it's a Christmas movie. That's
just I mean, that's a part of it, sure, but
it's not the only reason.
Speaker 1 (01:49:31):
In December at a Christmas party.
Speaker 5 (01:49:35):
And a big no.
Speaker 1 (01:49:37):
I mean, do you do you say? Miracle on thirty
fourth Street came out in June two? So yeah, no,
that wasn't my point. No, I mean I don't think
it really. I was just mentioning that as an aside.
I don't think it really matters when a movie is released.
I mean a lot of times that's just got to
do with scheduling with the studio, you know, just not
Christmas enough Rob, No, no, I mean, this is not
for me, but I understand why people like it. And
(01:49:58):
if if it's one that you did, I hope that
you watch it ten times this holiday and love it
every time you watch it. I will nine nine. All right,
thank you, Vinnie. I appreciate you'll go watch it six
or seven times if you wants. Sick says I got
a long, long email from Aaron in Akron. Why die
(01:50:23):
Hard is a Christmas movie? Rob? Is what it says.
I don't know that it warrants me reading the whole thing.
So let me see if I can paraphrase on the spot.
This reads, By the way, this is not the first
time he's sent this. This reads like a screed that
he has had in his archive for a minute and
(01:50:44):
he just copy and paste and sent to his credit.
By the way, it is exhaustively reasoned and researched.
Speaker 6 (01:50:52):
And you know what, maybe I'm wrong. Maybe that's the
email I need to change my mind. I'm not going
to read it, but maybe that's the email I need
to check. You don't have to, I'll read it for you.
Oh good, die Hard is a Christmas movie? Open strong?
Speaker 1 (01:51:08):
Without Christmas, die Hard can't happen. He's only in LA
to reunite with family for Christmas, a Christmas theme in itself,
and he literally saves Christmas. Die Hard has more Christmas songs,
images and references than It's a wonderful life. It could
be any time George Bailey yelling Happy New Year, Thanksgiving
(01:51:30):
or Independence Day. Doesn't George Bailey run through and say
Merry Christmas? Were Christmas?
Speaker 13 (01:51:36):
Bright?
Speaker 1 (01:51:39):
Let's see here it don McLean is alone and protecting hostages.
He's only in LA because it's Christmas. When you said
that if you remove Christmas, he's not there to save them,
McClain doesn't have Yeah, well McClain doesn't have to state
that he's trying to reunite for Christmas because no one
gets on a flight during one of the busiest Okay,
(01:51:59):
well he's and really nerdy with this.
Speaker 5 (01:52:01):
But but.
Speaker 1 (01:52:05):
McLean said that Holly had been in LA for about
six months, so nothing but Christmas is getting him. Okay, well,
he's convincing me that it's not rob This letter is
having the oppposite effect on you. I didn't see that
one coming. Christmas isn't merely decorative, Aaron says the Christmas
(01:52:27):
sounds aren't back dropped to his environment. Yeah, you know
how that you have that Let It Snow is over
the closing credits. You know how you have that reaction
when someone tells you not to do something.
Speaker 6 (01:52:39):
Yes, I've never felt stronger about this not being a
Christmas movie than I do right now.
Speaker 1 (01:52:44):
Like I Aaron had the unintended consequence of me going
over to Rob's side. You know what, You're right, it's
not a Christmas movie.
Speaker 5 (01:52:55):
Uh.
Speaker 1 (01:52:55):
They play let it Snow over the credits. John and
Argyle wish each other. A Mary Smiths jingle bells is
being whistled by someone. As McLean walks toward the elevator.
There's the Santa hat. Yeah, I have a machine gun.
Speaker 3 (01:53:09):
Ho ho ho.
Speaker 1 (01:53:12):
Yeah again. I love the movie. I watch it every
single year. I just don't believe that it's a Christmas film,
that's all. I wouldn't put it in the Christmas If
I were building my own Blockbuster video in twenty twenty five,
I would not put it in the Christmas movie section.
Speaker 6 (01:53:29):
I would put it in the best Movies I've Ever
seen section because I love it. I just don't think
it's a Christmas movie.
Speaker 1 (01:53:35):
So you're thinking on it is a movie you would
have to be unequivocally about Christmas. I just think it
was the movie Home for the Holidays about Christmas. I
have not which one is that. I think that's the
one with Holly Hunter. I don't even know what that
is one. I don't know what that is. I was
thinking it was the one.
Speaker 6 (01:53:55):
What's the one with who's that Tim Allen Smith's with
the Cranks. I mean that, that's what I was thinking.
He meant, I don't know, man.
Speaker 1 (01:54:07):
I was clicking around. I couldn't sleep, and I was
clicking around in my hotel room in Michigan, and Christmas
with the Cranks was on, and I'd heard of it,
but I had never seen it. I know it is
Tim Allen strike one. What's her name, Jamie Lee Curtis,
Jamie Curtis, and they it's one of those movies where
(01:54:27):
they put her in like a mousey brown wig yep,
so she looks like a mom. You want to talk
about a friggin chameleon, man, Jamie Lee Curtis. I didn't
see that movie. Everything everywhere all at once. But she
won an oscar or somebody won an oscar for it.
But they it's another movie where they put her in
like this mousey brown like page boy mom haircut or whatever.
(01:54:48):
It immediately changes her look. And then you see her
in real life or like Freaky Friday or something, and
she's got the the white pixie cut hair, you know,
like her walking around hair. But don't they put her
in a bikini in that movie too, Like in Christmas
with the Cranks, they like they should, Like there's a
I didn't see all of it, you might be right,
but like dan Ackroid's in it, and yeah, it's a
(01:55:10):
it's a fine movie. I didn't see the whole thing
I had, but I was like, I get what they're doing. Yeah,
it's a stupid Christmas movie. It's it's it's fine. They're
not going to be there for Christmas because they're kids
away at college and not coming home. Hooray. The neighbors
get mad and then they're like, screw all these neighbors.
But then the daughter decides to come home. I don't
mean to give you a spoiler alert here, but then
(01:55:31):
the whole neighborhood has to come together and put a
Christmas together for the kids and put their arguments. But
one of the kids in the movie you want to
feel old. One of the kids in the movie was
the little kid in Malcolm in the Middle. Oh really,
and that kid is thirty four years old now, yeah,
but Christmas with the Cranks are twenty years ago, so
he was still a little kid.
Speaker 11 (01:55:52):
Hear this?
Speaker 3 (01:55:52):
This is me?
Speaker 1 (01:55:54):
Oh is that for fat? That means it is it
is four fifty nine, which means in one minute's time. Yeah,
we have something we have to do. Oh all right,
I don't have to wait.
Speaker 7 (01:56:05):
Ber bag bang bang bang, binger bang bang.
Speaker 13 (01:56:09):
Binger bag bang bang bang, finger bang bang, binger bag
bang bang bang, binger bang bang finger bag bang bang
(01:56:31):
finger bag bang.
Speaker 1 (01:56:33):
Boy, he's a.
Speaker 13 (01:56:34):
Bang bang binger bag bang bang bang.
Speaker 1 (01:56:38):
Once he gets his teeth into something, boy, he doesn't
want to let go. So he's in a one track mine.
That guy. Yeah, I like this. It's not really connected.
But did you see the Bjeon Robinson clips. No, everybody's
flipping out about this guy b Jeon Robinson. The uh
the Bucks basically uh gave it away to the Atlanta
Falcons last night Thursday Night Football. Falcons were down twenty
(01:57:00):
eight to fourteen in the fourth quarter, and somehow Tampa
Bay let him come back. So the Falcons end up
winning by one, and they were talking to Bijon Robinson.
He has since apologized and they were asking him. They
had him on TV talking after you know, they's sitting
(01:57:23):
there with the panel, whoever the guys are that do
Thursday Night Football audio qualities not awesome on this, but
you might hear it. Hear the queer is what he said. Yeah,
he's like, oh, we used to play in the backyard.
We used to play smear the queer. That's definitely what
(01:57:44):
it was called. And he had to apologize because you know,
that's problematic now that he grew up running around in
the backyard. Richard Sherman there, your former We've talked about
him before. He's one of the analysts there on the
Thursday Night Football nightcap show. Thursday Night Football is on
Amazon now. And he said, we used to grow up
(01:58:07):
playing smear the queer. Now apparently now it's called I
haven't even heard this game referra. This is when everybody
would just hogpile on a guy right right, the guy
with the ball. You do whatever you had to do.
Apparently it's you're supposed to call it kill the carrier,
which is terrible. That is the wark, kill the carrier.
Speaker 6 (01:58:30):
Crush the carrier, go with the sea at least kay,
and then Cey, what are they doing?
Speaker 1 (01:58:35):
I don't like that at all. So he is apologizing
and he's like, hey, I really didn't mean to offend
anybody who was in the moment.
Speaker 3 (01:58:43):
Whatever.
Speaker 1 (01:58:44):
I don't think i've heard anybody refer to that game
in a long time smear the queer, although I imagine
that in Massachusetts and Rhode Island it was probably a
little different.
Speaker 6 (01:58:54):
Yeah, I think they were saying that when I left.
I mean that was a couple of years ago. I
think that would still people be like, oh, let's go
outside and play some football. Quah.
Speaker 1 (01:59:04):
I'll I don't know that we now. Again, I did
not grow up doing stuff like that. I didn't grow
up with all of like the neighborhood kids coming around
and playing this. So I don't even think I knew
that's what it was called until many years later when
friends of mine were like, oh, we used to play that,
(01:59:26):
and I was like, I don't know what that is. Yeah,
and they explained it and I understood what they were
talking about, but I was like, wow, I don't know,
but I haven't heard anybody refer to that in a
long time, especially since Bjon Robinson is not like an
old guy. Yeah, so that's clearly grandfather that clearly has
not like gone away or he's twenty three years old.
(01:59:52):
So it's probably I would imagine it's probably still used
on football fields and things like that, you know what
I mean, Like in big you play in the NFL,
you went to huge collegiate programs, and it's probably still done.
But do you think, Okay, but do you think because
if you associate it with like my childhood, yeah right,
I was a kid like the early eighties. Yeah, this
(02:00:16):
guy was born in two thousand and two, right, So
who is still using like I think football coaches I
think Okay, the coaches are college I think I think
those do.
Speaker 6 (02:00:26):
I mean, it's probably even going back to like Pop
Warner football. I think they're probably like, hey, we're going
to play a game. It's it's at the toward the
end of practice, when everybody's all beat and they decide
at the end, let's just go for a bang them
up session.
Speaker 1 (02:00:38):
But whether or not you think things like this are
too politically correct or whatever, there is language that has
been updated and kind of gradually has worked its way
out the pop culture. I'm saying it's good. I'm just
saying that.
Speaker 16 (02:00:52):
Why.
Speaker 1 (02:00:52):
I don't even mean that. I just mean, like, I'm
surprised that something like that would still be hanging on
in collegiate programs, or that even a coach would say that.
I see, I don't.
Speaker 6 (02:01:02):
I think I think, dude, I think that locker room
stuff is way less police than people think it is.
I think people say what they want to say when
they feel comfortable. I think you're in your comfort zone,
you're in a locker room, you're on a football field,
you're going to say that because in their minds, that's
what that's called.
Speaker 1 (02:01:21):
Or maybe they had like older siblings or something.
Speaker 6 (02:01:23):
And yeah, me and my brothers used to beat the
piss out of each other in the backyard with this game.
Speaker 1 (02:01:28):
We'd throw the ball down, guy, pick it up, and
get crushed. Yeah. I guess I'm just thinking along the
terms of like, like, generationally, you kind of have your
own language and your own words, and I guess I'm
curious why this would have held on for a dude
who's twenty three years old. But maybe it's coaches.
Speaker 6 (02:01:46):
Or the way it sounds, I think it's probably just
something that has just been there. I guess it's the
only thing I could think of, the only reason that
that would still be around in twenty twenty five.
Speaker 3 (02:01:57):
I mean, think of.
Speaker 1 (02:01:59):
But this is what I'm saying. I literally haven't heard
that phrase or that game referred to by that in
I couldn't tell you how long. So when it popped up,
my reaction was like, oh, wow, Like I get why
people are like upset. Obviously they kind of there's a
knee jerk reaction to something like that. But I was like, wow,
I haven't heard anybody even use that phrase to describe
(02:02:21):
that in forever.
Speaker 6 (02:02:22):
And this is a young dude, and he uses it
in a very matter of fact way. It's not again.
You could tell he's not trying to be rude or malicious.
Speaker 1 (02:02:31):
He just says it. It just comes out.
Speaker 6 (02:02:34):
You think of the stuff that everybody said for so long,
you know what I mean. It's probably just again. I
just don't think that that ever disappeared from the football field.
As my guest clearly not. Eric said, I'm fifty. We
used to call it Fumbolina. What's the other one, Uh, Fumbolina?
Or oh god, oh the Crisco kid. But even that,
it's like an old you know, if you couldn't hang.
Speaker 1 (02:02:55):
Onto the ball? Yeah, look at the Crisco kid. But
even that, that's an even older reference to this kid. Yeah,
it's the same Shawn in Bedford, we used to call
it kill the guy with the ball. Hey, let's buy
some KGB guys, same story. Yeah, the end result is
the same. Yeah, that's pretty wild. So b Jeon Robinson,
(02:03:18):
a guy I had never heard of until this whole thing.
Broke is apologizing to people. Hey, sorry, yeah, I mean,
what else you're gonna say? Yeah, Allen Leethal Weapon is
a Christmas movie. Jesus God, they're selling Christmas trees. It's
the second scene of the film. They're playing jingle Bell rock. Okay,
Diehard is literally listed in the Christmas movie section of Hulu.
(02:03:40):
I have seen that because of this argument, because half
of you morons think it's a Christmas movie. Wmms rob
if you want to vehemently agree with him, Look, I
don't care what it's categorized as. It doesn't matter. It's
a great movie. Watch it whenever you want. I watch
(02:04:01):
it every single Christmas.
Speaker 9 (02:04:02):
Yeah, why do you watch it every single Christmas if
it's not a Christmas.
Speaker 1 (02:04:05):
Movie because of this debate, and it reminds me how
much I enjoy this film it is. It's kind of
a reminder. You go, oh right, Diehard. I haven't seen Diehart.
I have not watched die Hard since last year. So
I'm going to now sit down and watch Diehard. I'll
give you my hot take. I really like die Hard
with a Vengeance. I thought that was great. Sam Jackson,
Jeremy Irons, Yeah, yeah, I love that movie. I didn't
think any of them sucked. What was the one with
(02:04:27):
Justin Long by the Time you get to Live Free
or die Hard where Timothy Elephant's a bad guy but
it was like a hacker? Is it Kevin Smith is
in it? Right? Remember famously Kevin Smith said like Bruce
Willis was a giant prick to him.
Speaker 5 (02:04:37):
You know?
Speaker 1 (02:04:37):
Is that the one with Kevin Justin Long? I think, so, okay,
Live Free or die Hard that has a killer That
helicopter seen in that movie's awesome. Yeah, the helicopter goes
into the tunnel. They and I love Timothy Elephant too.
I would watch that guy do anything. But they did
go to the well, I think one too many times.
Mary Elizabeth Winstead did play mcclan's grown up daughter, Lucy McClain. Idea,
(02:05:01):
she is foxy. But yeah, I think they went one
too many times so that we I would live for
your Diehard. But again, if they're giving you, you know,
I think it was still a hit. It cost one
hundred and ten million dollars. It made almost four hundred,
so people are like, yeah, new die Hard movie. And
(02:05:21):
then they did a Good Day to die Hard. They
did a bunch of them with Sam Worthington yep. So
they just kept I don't know if that's even the
last one. And I never saw that one. I didn't
he's like in Russia or something. I didn't see that,
like a dude plays his son, Like okay, But I.
Speaker 6 (02:05:45):
Just got a text that I'm I am looking into
right now and I'm praying to God this is true.
I'm so if I'm not responding to you for a second,
I'm just doing a little research, okay.
Speaker 1 (02:05:57):
The fifth Diehard movie was originally called Diehard twenty four
to seven, and they were going to make it a
crossover between die Hard and twenty four with Keiper Sutherland
playing Jack Bauer. Now I've never watched that show, but
there were probably a lot of people really excited at
the prospect of that they're going to do a John
McClain Jack Bauer movie. But A Good Day to die
(02:06:20):
Hard was twenty thirteen and that was the last movie
in that franchise. So I was along for the first
three and then but they all made money. They were
all hits.
Speaker 9 (02:06:30):
There's five Diehard movie.
Speaker 1 (02:06:31):
Yeah, critics were like, this stinks, but they people went
to go see them because it would pinks. It's stinks.
John love it. They put him in Imax, and so
people go see them because you're like, yeah, it's Imax.
Stuff's blowing up. Like I understand. But I bailed after
that third one because I was like, I don't I'm fine.
Speaker 9 (02:06:48):
Is that only the first one that's considered a Christmas movie?
Speaker 6 (02:06:51):
Even though the second one does discuss Christmas? Apparently they
do say the first one really because the Erlen Carr Show.
Speaker 2 (02:06:58):
On one hundred points, of course, he stays.
Speaker 5 (02:07:05):
Calm when someone steals his stuff.
Speaker 1 (02:07:07):
From the company fridge.
Speaker 2 (02:07:09):
He needs that energy for when he pops in their
gas tank. Alan Cox on seven w MMS.
Speaker 1 (02:08:01):
You Yes, you can this is my perfect transition while
I'm keeping Dick from dating on.
Speaker 11 (02:08:22):
Hold.
Speaker 1 (02:08:29):
Hey Dick, Hey, what's all buddy? What's going on?
Speaker 3 (02:08:33):
Dick?
Speaker 11 (02:08:33):
How are you? Oh?
Speaker 7 (02:08:34):
I'm good.
Speaker 3 (02:08:35):
I just uh.
Speaker 7 (02:08:36):
I had about three performances this week on the Christmas
Sunday Jo yeah good, it was good good and uh yeah,
we have one down here and then I have to
play tomorrow. But I find it interesting on the the
uh Tor and Luca Lightleys, the song sound pretty good.
(02:08:59):
At Christmas, we had a standing room only over at
Bethany to day and then I played here and it's uh,
it was a jolly time. Everybody had fun. We had
egg nog and cookies and all you wanted. It's uh
enjoyed good time. But Tidians are great joy guys.
Speaker 1 (02:09:17):
Do you ever go do you ever go heavy on
the nog or do you keep it heavy on the egg? No?
Speaker 7 (02:09:22):
No, I just coffee in the dog they on.
Speaker 1 (02:09:26):
Yeah, a little little nutmeg and there making cookies.
Speaker 7 (02:09:28):
I'd take too many cookies.
Speaker 1 (02:09:30):
Though, no such thing as too many cookies, Dick, Dick.
When you guys are out there on the yuk, are
you doing melee khaliki maka or anything like that?
Speaker 7 (02:09:38):
Yeah, we Yeah, in fact, we did that. Yeah, yeah,
the Hawaiian song there was it was was it last
Monday Night and the banjo group got together for a
long time. Yeah that that was a pretty and then uh,
I think we do blue Hawaiian. It's pretty, but uh yeah,
I like rocking around the Christmas Tree.
Speaker 1 (02:10:00):
I want to play the bing Crosby version, Dick. Would
you guys play though? When you do Mamka? Do you
the Chris Isaac version? Do you do the bing Crosby version,
or do you do the James Buffett version? Yeah, Jesus Christ,
this is the one that I'm talking about. You mean
the guy that's in the picture of the Epstein files,
(02:10:21):
that Jimmy Jimmy Buffet, Jimmy Buffett in those Epstein Island pictures,
Dick boy. Yeah right, that'll put some shine in your saddle.
Speaker 7 (02:10:32):
Oh yeah, you had a lot of snow up there.
Speaker 1 (02:10:34):
Oh yeah, we're having it as we speak. Yeah, lots
of snow and snowing every.
Speaker 7 (02:10:39):
Day every day.
Speaker 1 (02:10:41):
How do you guys get to work slays? Yeah, a
series of slaves. I've got levers and pulleys and I've
got a Yeah, I've got a pack of dogs. That
I keep fed in my shed and you mean to rhyme,
but sometimes it just works out that way. No, I
take we take motorized vehicles to just like everybody else,
you know, do you.
Speaker 7 (02:11:04):
Well, you know what I'm thinking. Sunday another loss for
the Browns, right, another loss?
Speaker 1 (02:11:09):
I mean I think that's I think that's the same
bet if there's a Sunday and they're playing, I think
that's a safe bet. Yeah.
Speaker 7 (02:11:17):
Yeah, well yeah, I was a little disappointed in Ohio State.
But I think they'll come back, though, I really do.
Speaker 1 (02:11:25):
You think they'll win the Natty? Maybe maybe day that's
a that's a hot take. Maybe they might win, they
might lose. Rob, I think he's covered little Cya from
DFD there. Okay, thank you, Dick.
Speaker 7 (02:11:41):
Yeah, you're welcome.
Speaker 1 (02:11:42):
To have a great day, boy. I hate to bring
it up again, Rob. You know, we were just talking
to Dick from Dayton about Jimmy Buffett. Yeah, and Melicaliki Maka.
You know, they just dropped these nineteen photos from the
Epstein files, and it's the usual suspects. Most people like
(02:12:05):
to focus on Trump because Trump was his best friend.
There's Trump branded condoms in one of the pictures, and
of course they have to black out all of the
young girl's faces that are flanking Trump Bill Clinton. People
knew this and no new information. Woody Allen, again, you're
(02:12:26):
in cream company already, Bill Gates. Rich people hang out together, right,
And they're very quick to point out that the photos
obviously are not evidence of wrongdoing, just because he did
a lot of parties with a lot of different people.
Obviously Trump is a creep, right, he was there for
one thing and one thing only. He's a convicted sex assaulter.
(02:12:51):
Jeffrey Epstein. Steve Bannon is in one of the photos,
but I think people were most surprised rob to see
Jimmy Buffett flanking former President Bill Clinton and bookend Jimmy
Buffet at one end, Epstein and Gallaine Maxwell on the other,
and it's signed Bill Clinton. Yeah, so listen, Jimmy Buffett's dead.
(02:13:16):
Can you imagine if he were alive and having to
answer for this, they would be saying, the Hell's going
on here? I always think about the people who are
not easily identifiable as celebrities who are in the background
of these photos, Like, what if you just knew somebody
and you're like Jesus Christ. Is that Mark in the back?
What Mark doing there? Mark, Mark, Prince Andrew you know again,
(02:13:42):
a rogues gallery of creeps from Trump to Epstein to
everybody else but Jimmy Buffett.
Speaker 13 (02:13:48):
Rob.
Speaker 1 (02:13:49):
Yeah, that can't make you feel good, even as a
guy who doesn't like Jimmy Buffett.
Speaker 3 (02:13:54):
No, I don't.
Speaker 1 (02:13:55):
I just I'm of the belief that And I don't
understand where this gets political with people. If you are
on the list and you were doing horrible, awful things,
you should not be exempt from everyone knowing and you
being an enormous scumback you should it should be everywhere.
(02:14:18):
You should be persecuted, all of this all it's not political.
If it's Trump, if it's Clinton, if it's whomever. If
it should be Buffett, great, I mean he's already dead,
so great, But they should all be like, if that's
what you were doing with your time, and they were
all willing participants, take them all out, kill them all.
How do I care? They thought his name was Buffet,
(02:14:38):
That's why they invited him. They did spell it that way.
Buffet of young ladies that were there. Yeah, just I mean, I.
Speaker 6 (02:14:44):
Don't Pictures again, pictures don't show guilt. But all of
these guys knew what was going on clearly, right, Bill
Clinton a hound for years. So what do we want here?
Speaker 1 (02:15:00):
Well, because the people that you can pretty you can
you can probably easily separate because people have made the point, well,
rich people all hang out together. And Bill Gates was
meeting with this guy because he was constantly trying to
get money from him. He was trying to get him
to fund his philanthropic efforts and things like that. Sure,
I don't know that Bill Gates has ever been credibly
accused of doing anything with any of those girls. The
(02:15:22):
people who have been credibly accused Bill Clinton, Prince Andrew
Donald Trump. It's because in every other area of their
lives they were poon hounds, yes, with young girls. And
you know, these guys are on videotape, they're on audio tape,
they're on whatever. Guys you know, listen, would he all
and everybody can chuckle because he you know, married his
stepdaughter or whatever it was. But a guy like Jimmy Buffett,
(02:15:44):
a guy like Bill Gates, and you never know, you don't,
You just don't.
Speaker 6 (02:15:50):
And at the end of the day, it's like I
said when I started pictures don't suggest guilt.
Speaker 1 (02:15:55):
They're pictures. And to your point, rich people hang out together, right,
So Jimmy Buffett may have known nothing about Epstein and
his crew of scumbags and he just happened to be there.
It's like all of the celebrities over the years that
were in Ditty pictures right right, they're all puckering down
below because they're like, oh my god, this guy. You know,
(02:16:15):
when that story breaks, he was throwing white parties every
year with hundreds and hundreds of celebrities. So there were
a lot of people. You know, it was a calling card,
it was a status thing if you were invited to
one of Ditty's parties. It doesn't mean, obviously that every
single one of those people is doing something awful. The
people that you know in the Epstein case, people that
you know are doing awful things, are people who are
(02:16:36):
known for doing awful things. Donald Trump, you know, the
guy who doesn't have a redeemable cell in his body,
and he's, oh, Jeffrey Epstey was my great friend, my
best friend, and all this stuff, and then all of
a sudden he has no clue who he is. And
you know, that's all par for the course. But Jimmy
Buffett in one of the photos. Yeah, I mean, but
I don't see people like I didn't see in the
(02:16:57):
write ups on these, nobody mentioned and Jimmy Buffett, and
so I was like, I wonder why that is.
Speaker 6 (02:17:04):
I think it's the same reason you're not seeing a
lot of stuff with Bill Gates at that same point, right,
Like people are in a photograph. There's nothing necessarily pointing
at guilt in a photograph. But there are others who
and if everything comes out that way and they were
doing bad things, then again, those people should be persecuted
(02:17:25):
for it. It shouldn't be. It's not a political issue.
I don't understand why people keep bringing this up.
Speaker 1 (02:17:31):
Photograph. Melina Gates cited Bill Gates and Jeffrey Epstein's personal
relationship as a main factor for their divorce. Yeah. I mean,
those stories had been percolating for a while. So even
if you're there with your handout trying to get the
guide legitimately to contribute money to one of your causes,
I can't imagine your wife is real happy about it. No,
(02:17:52):
And if that's the case, if it comes out that
he did something wrong, take care of it. That's it.
No one can be exempt or should be exempt from
it if they were involved. Period. Well, I really wish
I had asked Dick if he thought die Hard was
a Christmas movie. Well, I gotta tell you maybe, you know,
I'm not too sure it might be. It's a good point, Alan,
you know, let me think, how about them calves. If
(02:18:15):
you find a fence, that guy will sit on it. Boy,
a lot of people, by the way, cotton Balls included
hoping Dick is not on anyone's celebrity deathpool list. No,
you know, I've gotten a couple of emails from people
who you can't listen. I understand you can't listen to
every second of this program. I don't even do that,
(02:18:37):
but they're like, hey, is Dick okay. I'm like, yeah,
he's called us a couple of times. And now we
know since this particular person's email said he's fine, he
just called He's doing fine. Now he does seem to
be leaning heavily on the eggnog. I hope that he
doesn't have to develop a problem this late in life.
Rob Aaron wrote me back. Of course I had that
(02:18:57):
die Hard explanation on hand, because a Hard like Rob
every year that I have to explain it to add length.
Speaker 6 (02:19:04):
Yeah, it sounds like you're changing people's minds by the
thousands hard on beauty.
Speaker 1 (02:19:11):
Yeah, you're not changing anybody's mind Maybe he is. I
wonder I wonder who the first two people to argue
about whether or not Die Hard as a Christmas movie
were the first two people? Right, every argument starts with
two people, And I wonder who the first people were.
(02:19:32):
You think it's a couple of dudes getting high. You know,
this is my favorite Christmas movie bit. July fifteenth, nineteen
eighty eight is when die Hard won dropped. See I'm
a nerd. So back in the day when everybody else
had pictures of hot chicks and cars and beer on
the wall of their dorm room, I had movie posters
(02:19:54):
and the very first one I ever had was die Hard.
It was it was uh Willison profile, it was Naco
Toomy Plaza. I mean, there were different versions of it.
One of them had him holding the gun. It was,
you know, different versions of it. But Alan Rickman, the villain,
the late great Alan Rickman, and the dad from Family Matters.
(02:20:21):
He was the cop Al Powell, Reginald Bell Johnson. He
was the dad from family matters, and yeah, but two guys,
maybe two people might have been a guy and his
girlfriend arguing, you know, about something else entirely different something
you know, argue. You know how arguments in relationships will
(02:20:44):
devolve into other things, right, people will just throw everything.
It's like Casey Kasem, he's yelling about the dog and
he goes and where were those pictures I was supposed
to see? Things have nothing to do the Germaine at all.
To the main argument. I envisioned it happening like that,
a guy and his girlfriend, or a guy and his boyfriend,
or a girl and her girlfriend take a pick or arguing,
(02:21:05):
and it turns into you know, they go from the
goddamn dishwasher is never emptied, and we have that little
sign you switch it to dirty or you switch it
to clean. Just some mundane argument and they go and
you're watching die Hard all the time. It's my favorite
Christmas movie. It's not a Christmas movie, you a whole
(02:21:26):
That's how I envision the very first argument.
Speaker 6 (02:21:30):
It's probably those two guys that argued over the Wicked
Witch of the West. That's probably the first real version
of it. And who are those people?
Speaker 1 (02:21:38):
You never saw that video. No Oh, a guy loses
his mind screaming at another dude about the wicked Witch
of the West and explaining the movie to the guy. Oh,
it's a couple of college bros. Just it's a silly
movie or clip. It's pretty good, is it's it's I mean,
it's probably not clean either, so I wouldn't. Probably not.
(02:21:59):
Somebody put out a list of Christmas carols from hell.
You know, we played Linda Bennett's Daddy's Home for Christmas
where that it gets interrupted by the news report of
the bus crash and they're not sure if Dad's dead,
and there are a lot of you ever see Wing?
Have you ever seen Wing? This is that older woman
in Hong Kong who sings you know. The hook here
(02:22:19):
is that she sings these songs in heavily broken English.
But I guess that in and of itself makes them entertaining.
And she does Silent Night and the Night Night. I
(02:22:40):
Alma was wondering if people are putting us on with
these half the time, I think that they might be.
You were talking about William Hung not long ago. Remember
he came up in conversation. Yeah, William Hung had Hung
for the holidays that is fantastic. It's a perfect name
for a Christmas album. Do you want to hear him do?
(02:23:03):
Stupid question? I was gonna say, do you want to
hear him do a little drummer boy? As I was
saying it, I'm thinking to myself, Alan, you moron should
say again?
Speaker 6 (02:23:13):
Of course I listened to that on repeating the car,
so I'm it'll be the second or third time I
hear that today.
Speaker 1 (02:23:30):
On You Boy Toy. I mean, there's not a lot
of heavy lifting in that song, so there's really nothing
for him to screw up. Did he do deck the
Halls ball? He says, Holly Rob and he says, la
(02:23:51):
La La La, Johnny, damn it all? Okay, little pitchy dog,
little bit? Don we know our gay apparel? He didn't
change it, he didn't try to update it, He didn't
(02:24:11):
try to make it his own. How about something from
the Shatner Clause album Bill Shatner early nineties, still doing it.
Speaker 2 (02:24:22):
And join the.
Speaker 1 (02:24:26):
William William Hung. I was like, oh my god, Shatner
sounds exactly like William Hung. Lashy through the snow of
a wonderful Spen sleigh or the fields we call laughing
all the way bell bull mate. I want this guy
to sing. I'm tired of this talk singing.
Speaker 3 (02:24:47):
What are you in?
Speaker 1 (02:24:47):
Cake? The guy never sings, He just talks over music.
I never noticed that before. Come on, you can't sing,
don't front a band. Reluctantly crouch, reluctantly crouched. I get it,
you're too cool to sing. Take that dumb hat off

How will you be filling your days? I know you work,
That's all I'll be doing. All you'll be doing is
working and stack and cheddar get in your paper.
Speaker 10 (02:26:41):
Stirring it away for the winter, and then whatever time
I can with my baby. Yeah, we're gonna do crafts, are.
Speaker 1 (02:26:49):
You what kind of craft how? How aware is he
of his surroundings and how engaged is he? Five months?
I can't really cast my mind back. I'll be six
months next week, okay?
Speaker 10 (02:27:01):
And then no, I mean he really he's aware of
a lot, like he knows what's going on, he knows
who people are, like certain people, and he likes he
loves people.
Speaker 1 (02:27:10):
He's always happy. When is his birthday? June seventeenth? You
mean December seventeenth his birthday? I thought you said he'd
be six months next week. Oh, I'm sorry, six months.
I was thinking, Yeah, you're right, I'm sorry. June seventeenth, gotcha.
Speaker 10 (02:27:23):
Oh, we're gonna do finger painting. Oh well, I'm gonna
attempt it. I try to do it, like would make
ghosts out of his feet. Yes, he hated that. Ghosts
out of his feet. Yeah, Like I tried to paint
his foot white and then yeah, I can't imagine why
he wouldn't like that. So what I had to do
is I put a bunch of papers all over my
kitchen floor, and then I painted his foot and then
(02:27:46):
I would hold him yeah, over and over again. I
got one good foot out of like twenty five papers.
Speaker 1 (02:27:53):
You know, we did that to our dog before we
had her put to sleep, and she had obviously no
clue what.
Speaker 3 (02:27:58):
Was going on.
Speaker 1 (02:27:59):
My wife had bought pads, and so we got her feet.
We did some We bought these little like high stock
paper cards, and we did like some nose prints, and
you know, it is more difficult than you would expect
to get a dog's nose print in ink. She had
no idea what was going on.
Speaker 6 (02:28:18):
So you're saying that now, but maybe she was like,
all right, Dad's out in the backyard digging a hole,
Mom's over here putting stuff on my feet in myself.
Speaker 1 (02:28:27):
The hell's going on here? This can't come soon? Enough
the which she was thinking this is this is starting
to kind of seem like, I'm not gonna wait a minute,
who's the lady with the suicide machine? What the hell
is this? Poor puppy? Yeah, it sucks. Well, then will
you go back to that well Jess with the feet painting?
(02:28:49):
Or no?
Speaker 10 (02:28:50):
I think we're gonna try it again. I mean, he's
a little older now, and you might just got you
might have just gotten him on a bad day.
Speaker 9 (02:28:55):
I mean he was sleeping the first time I did it.
Speaker 1 (02:28:57):
And it still didn't work.
Speaker 9 (02:28:58):
I thought it was going to be easy.
Speaker 1 (02:29:00):
You woke him up, no wonder he didn't like it.
Speaker 9 (02:29:01):
Oh yeah, he was not happy.
Speaker 1 (02:29:03):
He woke right up from a deep sleep and into
you walking him around like a like a marionette with
ink on his feet like he's Pinocchio.
Speaker 10 (02:29:13):
All right, well, yeah, I mean he'll probably try to
eat it this time if I put on his fingers,
So we're gonna be very careful.
Speaker 1 (02:29:18):
About it, all right, shure it out fifty five and
write that one down. Ah, Okay, where can I go here?
In the last few minutes of the program, Uh, we
did Jimmy Buffett and the Epstein photos. Umm, oh, forget
(02:29:39):
your end of you don't forget let us know your
end of year. iHeart radio app rewinds, right, I mean
you're up against some serious numbers. Yeah, people were sending
us their year end rewinds. I've still not gotten one.
But it's okay, it's fine, doesn't matter. I'm more interested
in where yours are. And Dan, I thought had the
(02:30:00):
record at one hundred and ninety one thousand until I
heard from Billy in Vermilion and he had three hundred
and twenty six thousand. That's got to be the right minutes.
It's got to be. I mean, it hasn't yet been
beat a beaten, but I am more interested. And again,
(02:30:22):
you don't have to submit these to me, but Pornhub
has a year in review rewind as well. That will
tell you maybe not individually targeted to you if you
use a lot of porn Hub, but they do compile
the data of what interested people the most in twenty
twenty five, and I think if not doesn't constitute a
(02:30:44):
sea change, but year to year you kind of wonder
if it's coincidental when the things change, or if there
were external factors or something. The most viewed video category
by far on Pornhub in twenty twenty five, was lesbian
really Now They attribute some of that to an uptick
(02:31:06):
in female usage of porn Hub. Terms like lesbian scissoring,
lesbian milth okay, and lesbian strap on grew considerably pardon
the pun in twenty twenty five. Now, I will say.
Speaker 4 (02:31:26):
I was.
Speaker 1 (02:31:28):
I'm not a huge porn consumer. I never really was,
but when I watched it, Okay, I've got a tub
in my basement that just says porn, and it's the
stuff that over the years, my wife and I, you know,
you and I I'm sure got a lot of porn
over the years as promotional items.
Speaker 2 (02:31:42):
Right.
Speaker 1 (02:31:42):
It was not in Chicago. They just we were doing
stuff with this company. They were just dropping stuff all
the time. So I had this, But for my own
personal consumption, I probably had half a dozen DVDs. They
were all lesbian porn. It was a long time before
I ever saw porn with a guy in it, because
I was like, well I have one of those. I
(02:32:03):
don't need that. And what was explained to me by
like friends, well you pretend you're the guy. I'm like, no, no, no, no, no,
I can do that on my own. I got plenty
of that to go around. I like women, I like
them naked, and the more the merrier. So I was
watching exclusively lesbian porn for a long time and I
(02:32:24):
still love it. That's great.
Speaker 3 (02:32:26):
Now.
Speaker 1 (02:32:27):
Transgender porn blew up on Pornhub this year, too, partially
probably out of curiosity, maybe transgender people seeing themselves more
represented in pornography. There is a casey case of vibe
to this article. They're like transgender was up five spots
from last year and slipping two spots to number four,
(02:32:52):
Hano and slipping two in the pink and levenstake. I'm gating,
he gazed it. Queer searches are up. I assume because
of Bijon Robinson. Uh increased one thirty two percent queer
queer Okay, I mean that's a big category, right. Bisexual
(02:33:15):
was way up, and trans threesome was way up. How
about that cash me outside? How about that? How about da?
Speaker 6 (02:33:25):
So those were those were the top searches, Like they
like milf didn't make it in and well Mom and
all that stuff.
Speaker 1 (02:33:32):
Lesbian milf. I wonder if we've reached peak step Mom.
That was always like the number one thing for the
last bunch of years. Yes, so that's not even in
the top five this year. No.
Speaker 6 (02:33:42):
Wow, it seems like every video is titled that too,
Like whenever you look it's it's it's you know, step
mom grocery shopping, finds new melons, and you're like, oh, okay,
check this one, new melons.
Speaker 1 (02:33:59):
What's happening in twenty twenty five is more than just
an increase in views, said the porn Hub brand ambassador.
It's a cultural shift. Trans creators are finally contributing and
being celebrated on their own terms, is what she says.
And so it's less of a taboo. The popularity and
again is out of curiosity and maybe people just being
(02:34:21):
able to be more of who they are and what
they want to see. They saw the greatest increases in
transgender content consumption among boomers that age group. The boomers
are looking at transgender porn. They're curious, That's what I'm saying,
a lot of curiosity when you see what they're talking
(02:34:42):
about with all the transgenders.
Speaker 6 (02:34:44):
When you think about it, you've been looking at porn
for sixty years. You got to get to something sometime, like, yeah,
here's something I haven't seen lately, Michael Chay has a
great joke. I don't know how old it is, it's
not brand new, but Michael Chay has a great joke
about how lesbian porn. Lesbians don't even get to be
in their own porn.
Speaker 1 (02:35:02):
He's like, these girls are gay, They're straight girls going
down on each other, right, real lesbians don't even you know,
that's a whole other thing. But I take his point.
One of the most top ten most searched for, one
of the top ten most searched for terms in twenty
twenty five, themboy alike really femin boy, a feminine man.
Speaker 9 (02:35:25):
Isn't that metrosexual?
Speaker 1 (02:35:27):
No, that was more based in grooming. I think femboy,
lady boy that I think that falls under the rubric
property of transgender content.
Speaker 9 (02:35:35):
I've never heard that word.
Speaker 1 (02:35:37):
Well, it's kind of just it's more like probably queer
slang than anything else. I don't know that we're throwing
that word around lady boy, ladyboy. And again, it's hard
to determine which terms you know. Obviously these are subsets
on porn hub, but you use them in casual conversation,
you might get an archdebro.
Speaker 11 (02:35:57):
I don't know.
Speaker 1 (02:35:58):
Despite porn Hub being blocked in nearly half of the
US States because of course the Handmaid's Tail is in charge. Now,
I wonder if that has something to do with it too.
All you gotta do is get a VPN.
Speaker 6 (02:36:10):
No, I know, but if people are not, that could
absolutely skew those numbers.
Speaker 1 (02:36:15):
I mean, the United States is still far and away
the very top they list of the top twenty countries
by traffic. The US is far and away at the
very right.
Speaker 6 (02:36:24):
But if all the step mom porn lovers went over
to you porn because their state doesn't let you use
porn Hub anymore, Yeah, maybe that hurt it.
Speaker 1 (02:36:34):
Well, because even in the country's countries where it's blocked,
they're like, yeah, people are still seeing it, like it's
porn Hub's blocked. In France, it's still a top ten country.
People can still see it. Does the thing come up?
Have you looked? If you log in? Does it let
you log in? Or do you what happens here? I
see what you're doing, rob You're trying to trap me here. No,
I'm not a hub. I'm just look. There's a button
(02:36:58):
that says I am eighteen years or older. You click that,
that's all That's all I'm saying. I always says, is
this is an adult website. I'm eighteen, and.
Speaker 3 (02:37:08):
You go right in.
Speaker 1 (02:37:08):
Yeah, they don't have to.
Speaker 9 (02:37:09):
I thought you had to put your ID in.
Speaker 3 (02:37:11):
I did.
Speaker 1 (02:37:11):
That's what I was wondering. Huh, I see what you're doing. Well,
we talked about we talked about this a while a
while ago. A lot of websites are just going, Nope,
we're not doing that. That's what it sounds like. We're ignoring, right,
I mean, apparently you can just ignore laws now. So
these companies are getting hip to like, yeah, we're just
gonna do that too. Last year, anime porn was the
(02:37:33):
most searched term globally interesting, followed by milf and lesbian.
So LGBTQ creators are taking a bigger role in this
and being more represented on porn websites. And they also,
(02:37:53):
by the way, have SFW porn Safe for work. Now,
that's usual, just ASMR. Somebody wants to sit there and
doing their regular work and have somebody moaning in their headset.
You know, how could you concentrate? It's a good question.
I don't know. Impossibly, Hey Bill, Hello, Hey Allen, what's up?
Speaker 3 (02:38:17):
Man? Hi?
Speaker 1 (02:38:18):
Rob Hi Bill, Hey, uh hi, Hey, I got the
best joy at work today. Worked at Cleveland Clinic Main campus.
Speaker 3 (02:38:25):
I got to check in somebody Monroe named Monroe. Yeah,
paping my butt off in the inside is all I
heard was Monroe.
Speaker 2 (02:38:34):
You mean you didn't you.
Speaker 1 (02:38:34):
Didn't yell it in their face and completely freaked them out.
And because the guy looked exactly like, like, uh, what's
his name? The cop from Diehard John McClain, Oh, Reginald
Bell Johnson, you mean, yeah, yeah, he looks like him.
And I'm like, oh my god, that's crazy. He's calling
(02:38:56):
him over to the miss Monroe. But that's all I did.
Speaker 3 (02:39:03):
When he said he said his last name, I go okay,
and I looked him up. I'm like, oh my god,
his name's Monroe.
Speaker 1 (02:39:08):
Yeah, now that was his could Bill, that was his
first or last name. His first name, first name was Monroe.
Oh what made it even third? And what's your first name,
sir Monroe? Monron? His last name was Monroe too. My
name is Monroe, Monroe Monro. Oh God. Nobody had a
(02:39:32):
clue what I was laughing about.
Speaker 10 (02:39:34):
And I just kind of went, yeah, all right, I'm
gonna keep it to myself.
Speaker 1 (02:39:37):
Bill looked like a mental patient back here at work.
Speaker 7 (02:39:39):
Yeah, pretty much.
Speaker 1 (02:39:40):
I was kiggling all day the rest of the day
because of that. Yeah right, well, good, all right, good,
thank you, thank you pal.
Speaker 3 (02:39:48):
Guys have a good time you too too.
Speaker 1 (02:39:51):
Where's Bill out in Maria? Monroe Monro? And what's your name, sir? Oh,
my name is Franklin and the first name Monro.
Speaker 11 (02:40:09):
Monroe.
Speaker 6 (02:40:09):
This guy just starts laughing in the guy's face. Yeah,
I'm a booker or something with a manner. Why is
this guy laughing at me? Taking his nose?
Speaker 1 (02:40:16):
Yeah, what I just said? My name was Monroe, Franklin.
That's so funny about that. I don't.
Speaker 7 (02:40:26):
This is my name?
Speaker 1 (02:40:27):
Yah, Well, that's rude. Wasn't nice at all?
Speaker 3 (02:40:30):
That was my name.
Speaker 1 (02:40:32):
My dad's name too. I'm a junior. I'm Monroe Junior.
But all right, Jesus Christ, it's all right, sir. I
don't understand this seems to be highly inappropriate. Now I
must leave you as the Brady bunch is on and
I find four of those children incredibly arousing.
Speaker 7 (02:40:53):
Get at it.

(01:31):
Three five, one two want to send me a text?
Allancoxshow dot com. All the other stuff you can watch
on our YouTube. I'm in here surfing off the fumes
of this nineties weekend. Boy, I love it. It feels
almost disrespectful for us to cut in all most I said,
almost yeah, Mike and Canton texted Mike and Canton sent
(01:53):
me a text. Rob has got to be my favorite
program director. I wonder, I wonder how he ran them
in his head. I wonder who his top five are? Hey, vomit.
I rarely listen to the radio, but I put in
an effort when he has these weekends going on. Well, Mike,
why don't you puff my ass? All right? I rarely
(02:15):
listen to the radio. People have really strange ways of
complimenting people. Oh I love these because I don't ever
listen to the radio. All right, Well, if they're listening
in podcast form or on the app, as long as
they're listening, I'm fine.
Speaker 5 (02:32):
MM.
Speaker 1 (02:33):
I would much rather have them listen on the radio radio.
But to each his own.
Speaker 3 (02:40):
And all.
Speaker 1 (02:40):
My wife and I popped into an Applebee's for lunch.
I mean, that's a jaunty way of putting it, right,
We popped into an Applebeasts. It sounds almost impromptu, But
I think you really have to gird your loins. If
you're gonna decide to go to an Applebe's for lunch,
You've really you've got to prepare yourself, right, That is
a premeditated decision.
Speaker 6 (02:59):
Yes, unless you're like, you're out, Hey, I'm hungry. What's
around here?
Speaker 1 (03:05):
I don't know. Applebe's my last choice? Oh stop it.
It wouldn't be my last choice. We used when we
were in oak Tree. We were in Independence. Out of
oak Tree, there was one right across the street. There
was one at Rockside Road, and so I've had been
there a handful of times, and there were like three
or four restaurants right next to each other. I had
never There was a sushi joint. We went there a
(03:26):
couple of times. I had never gone. There was like
a long Horn right next to Applebee's. Yeah, never went there.
To this day, I've never been to a long Horn.
And it's not like I'm avoiding it. I just don't.
I don't know, I've never gone. I wasn't like, oh,
you know, I could get a forty eight or forty
eight ounce porterhouse for lunch or something. But I know,
on a couple of occasions, young Bill Wills and I
(03:49):
would go over there and have lunch at Applebee's.
Speaker 6 (03:51):
Yeah, and you know, there's a long Horn in my town,
so I go everywhere in a while.
Speaker 1 (03:55):
It's pretty good. Oh yeah, yeah, all right, not bad.
What about outback, I mean it's the same, like you
like a quick steak, you know.
Speaker 6 (04:03):
I mean Longhorn is definitely, I think, a better overall
choice than out Back.
Speaker 1 (04:09):
But Tayhas Roadhouse, I think is like the most popular
quick what they call fast casual restaurants these days.
Speaker 6 (04:16):
And that's like, that's that's an outback ish thing too,
you know. It's that middle of the road, you know,
family steakhouse kind of place.
Speaker 1 (04:24):
Easy and easy, out rightly right, something for everybody on
the menu, you know. And I'm on my way home
out West Lake Bay Village area, right there on ninety West,
there's all these restaurants along the service road that I
always forget are there. I've never been to any of them.
But there's like an olive garden and a holy house
and a friggin' a Robbie at what's a what's the Carabas?
I think tying places. Anyway, this person said, we went
(04:46):
to Applebee's. We heard we just disagree by Dave Mason. Yes,
and we heard everybody everybody by black Box. Remember well,
Brian saying this the other day. That's how we just disagree.
Showed up and then you have black Box.
Speaker 3 (05:06):
Right.
Speaker 1 (05:07):
Anytime a plane crashes and they check the black Box,
we go for them. He goes, we would have had
no idea what those songs were without your show, which
is very surprising to me. I mean, the black Box
song is used in all kinds of commercials, and you
hear it in sporting events, and.
Speaker 6 (05:23):
This song is a real bang our sporting events still
play in jock jams, though, Like, I don't know that if.
Speaker 1 (05:28):
You're there, they are point on television play. I feel like,
if you're there, they are, you think, so yeah, don't think.
Speaker 6 (05:34):
I feel like that song might not be played at
arenas anymore.
Speaker 7 (05:39):
There ain't no good, there ain't no bad.
Speaker 2 (05:43):
Gosh, there's only you and me.
Speaker 1 (05:47):
We just disagree yep, of course we can't see.
Speaker 8 (05:57):
No good gosh, no bad gosh, only you and me.
Speaker 7 (06:04):
We just dishagree.
Speaker 1 (06:06):
He kind of stay with that one. He really was. Yeah.
Dave Mason, who famously was in the band Traffic with
Steve Wynwood. But it's just a solid Rob referred to
it as yacht rock, and I guess maybe I'd never
thought of it like that, but you're probably right. Oh yeah, yeah,
I would definitely. This is on my yacht rock mixtapes. Okay. Anyway,
So there you go, a guy going out there here
(06:27):
in a couple of songs that he would not have
known from the show, and I have to assume that
that just improved his applebee's experience, right, I would imagine.
I mean, if this came on while I was eating anywhere,
I'd be happy. Absolutely. Hey, I came in today garage. Yeah.
I looked over to my right. Do I see the
Uh the Alan coxmobile has made it? It has I
(06:49):
got my car back? Congratulations? Yeah, thank you, I got
my car back, my twenty fifteen Ford Fusion. Well, yeah, no,
I got it back. It had been I hit a
deer a couple of weeks back, and I it I
was fine, no airbags went off or anything like that.
That damage was largely cosmetic, but they really had to
get in there and fix it and the crew. I
took it to AutoNation out in Westlake, and this is
(07:10):
hashtag not an ad but I had taken my car
out there on a couple of occasions just for other things.
But this had to go into their collision center and
they were fantastic. So it looks great. Yeah, it looks
good as new. It is weird. I feel like I'm
driving a toy now because I've been driving this Durango
for three weeks. You know, I'm up high. There's a
lot more bells and whistles, and yeah, I feel like
(07:33):
I'm driving a toy because it's weared you into wanting
an suve. No, it steered me into thinking more about it. Yeah, yeah,
but you know, I really do like my car. I
was not in the mood to have to buy a
new car. I just I want to have another year
and a half maybe before I have to do that.
So my insurance company fixed it. They didn't total it
(07:54):
out or anything like that. And so yeah, I finally
got the car back the other day, and so I'm
happy to be behind the wheel again. But it was. Yeah.
It took some getting used to for a second because
I've been driving this around for three weeks and uh
and that was good. That was fun. But uh yeah,
back behind the wheel of h I have never named
my cars, right, some people have, they go there, I
(08:14):
got the old black Beauty is back in. I feel
like that was a thing back in the day, right.
My parents had like one of their cars. My mom
called the Rose. Oh, yeah, of course the Rose. And
I go, why, Mom, it's a bright green car. She's like,
shut up, yeah, tell my mom talked to It's just
what I call it, you dick. My dad called his
truck big Red. He had a gigantic.
Speaker 6 (08:39):
No, it's a big, giant red duly truck, did two
wheels in the back, big stupid looking Ford truck.
Speaker 1 (08:46):
That he had. Yeah, big Red. He had that for years.
I feel like it's a real beater. You give it
a name, yeah, because it hung out right. You're not
going to give a brand new car a name.
Speaker 9 (08:54):
Two cars named Jerry Seinfeld.
Speaker 1 (08:57):
Because she loves Jerry signs Jerry.
Speaker 10 (09:00):
And then the other one was Little Jerry Seinfold named
after the rooster. Yeah, and then after that hello name
in my car again, little Jerry sign, they kept falling apart.
Speaker 9 (09:09):
Yeah, maybe that's like bad luck.
Speaker 1 (09:11):
Maybe it was trying to tell you something. Yeah, yeah,
Alan going to Applebee's for lunches like deciding to eat
kim chi for two consecutive meals. I would eat it more.
I love kimchi. Him chie is pretty the little good.
If I had more, i'd eat it right, I'm starving. Actually,
Applebee's was good enough for our friend Paul Stanley of Kiss,
then I think it's probably good enough for random diners
to go. Paul Stanley has an Applebee's water. Hello, my
(09:35):
name is Paul Stanley. I'll be taking care of y'all tonight,
a book day. No, how are you all feeling fine?

be great. Thousand A boy, it sounded way too busy
(10:22):
in them there for him to be spending so much
time chatting with the customers. Yeah, that's the kind of
service you get at Applebee's.
Speaker 6 (10:30):

because there's a metal version now and you never can
tell Rob. You can never judge a book by its cover,
if that's even the proper metaphor. Here, I got an
email from someone, and I'm not going to even mention
(11:55):
their name or blow up their spot because I wouldn't
want anyone to know they're filthy Sea. But I got
an email from somebody who said, can you please send
me both versions of Rob Hates Ducks and this person's
email signature. They're like the director of a local hospital group,
like senior director of hospital operations. It's some you know,
(12:18):
well done, Yeah, I love that, you know. So it's
you never know where people are coming from and you
never know what's going to hit them the right way there.
It is Alan's making of Rob being the program director
Why No Christmas Craptacular at the RMG thing with Jeffrey.
Speaker 6 (12:41):
Yep and Charlie So we write that every year. That's
something I started when I got here in twenty twenty
two was our first one. Charlie's got some travel and
as the snit's coming up, and honestly, the isn't there
for us to sit down and do it.
Speaker 1 (12:57):
They're not easy to produce.
Speaker 6 (12:59):
I know it sounds like we just put this stuff together,
but those things take weeks to do. So we're probably
going to do some kind of a revisit of the
past episodes of it and things you may or may
not have heard in the past for this Christmas, and
then bring it back new in twenty twenty six.
Speaker 1 (13:18):
And then what is that it's I know that any
any kind of programming of that nature requires a lot
more work than people realize. It's hon there was Jeffrey
and Charlie goofing around or so we would Yeah, I
mean we would write a bunch of sketches and you know,
games and things to do. So Miles would play music. Yeah,
Miles came in with a band last year. It was great.
(13:39):
So yeah, it's not there's nothing nefarious. It's no one's
being lazy.
Speaker 6 (13:42):
There's just people's schedules didn't allow for it this year.
Life gets in the way.
Speaker 1 (13:47):
Sometimes family and things travel, Like I said, come up
and you have to deal with it. So Christmas twenty
twenty six, perhaps it'll be back new, But there will
be something for this year. I will.
Speaker 6 (14:00):
I'm still working on some ideas. I've got twelve days
to put something together. So don't don't you stress.
Speaker 1 (14:07):
That's great. That's for me to stress. Say. That's not
a lot of time.
Speaker 6 (14:10):
No, but it's uh but again, I mean, I have
all of that stuff archived, so we'll probably put.
Speaker 1 (14:17):
Some kind of revisit together. I'm gonna talk to Miles late.
You've got the scripts probably leather bound and from from
the l signed from the first three. Yeah. No, oh,
there's been three of them. There's been three of them.
Speaker 6 (14:30):
We did, we did, we did twenty two, twenty three,
and twenty four this year. So yeah, I mean, look,
we started talking about this every year. We start talking in.
Speaker 1 (14:38):
Like, you know, summer time probably yeah, you know, September, October,
and uh, this year, we knew pretty much right away
it was going to be a tough, tough thing to
pull off.
Speaker 6 (14:47):
So it'll be back. Nothing to uh stress, No one's
being late. I've heard that.
Speaker 1 (14:53):
It'd be good. Damn lazy.
Speaker 6 (14:55):
I don't know what is lazy you have to do
with that we didn't take the time to sit down
and write it and put it together.
Speaker 1 (15:00):
Yeah, but that's extra stuff, Like it's not no, it's
not required to be produced. It's that's not how people
see that value added. Well, and that's the double edged
sword with giving people something that it turns out they
end up really enjoying, is that when it's something they
didn't have before and then they have it, and then
if they don't have it again they get all angry. Well,
and the part that was the worst for me, honestly
(15:21):
is that something that that was an idea that I
had that I went to Charlie with and like people
were given Rover crap for it that it wasn't getting produced.
Speaker 6 (15:29):
I'm like, Rover has nothing. That's an MMS thing. Rover
had nothing to do with. He called into it last year.
He was he was a wed things at London maybe
so he was a part of it, but no, that's
that's something that I put together for and dependent of
the show. Correct, So it's it has nothing to do
with his show, your show, anybody. It's just it's cast
members of that show putting together a Christmas special.
Speaker 1 (15:51):
So yeah, we'll be doing stuff on Christmas. There will
still be some fun stuff to listen to. It just
won't be as it has been in the past few years.
Jimbo from Alamagordo, one of our bureau chiefs out there,
listens on iHeartRadio. He said, I somehow know all the
words to oldie timey Christmas, but I can no longer
remember the lyrics to real classic Christmas songs. And I'm like, well,
(16:16):
that's not accidental, that's by design, Rob. You know you've
got to make room for the new classics. People who
are listening on the app can leave us messages.
Speaker 14 (16:27):
Hipiebes mothersmucker here. I know we get treated by aggravated Alan.
We get raging Rob every other day. That ends in
why I'm curious about Sweet jesss Do we get an
aggravated Jess? Like what makes her blood boil? She seems
(16:48):
so chilled, so down to earth and easygoing. Love that
love that for you, But I want to know what
really ticks her off?
Speaker 1 (16:57):
Huh. I guess I don't know that we've gotten. I mean,
when guys try to grab her when she's on stage
when she's performing what anybody well, but still it's not
something you enjoyed.
Speaker 10 (17:07):
Yeah, No, honestly, it takes a lot to make me mad,
like a lot.
Speaker 1 (17:14):
Well mad, Yes, but annoyed annoyed, I don't even know.
I gotta think about it. Problem is, and this is
where my brain went originally. I don't know that I
can come up with a synonym. We're angry that starts
with a J. Rob. I don't know that there's one
in there. There's aggravated Alan, you know, I love alliteration. Yeah,
there's raging rob. My brain as mother Smucker was talking,
(17:37):
was what starts with the Jay and Jerry j Jarry. Oh,
she's still thinking about those old cars. She had jittery,
But you're not jittery. I don't know, like jittery like ooh, imagitated,
I don't agitated. Okay, it takes a lot to get
you bent out of shape, it really does. That's good.
That's good. Your limits will be tested here.
Speaker 4 (17:58):
Mm hmm.
Speaker 1 (17:59):
Okay, well then there you go, mother Smucker, and we
don't know what it's going to take. Jess might end
up being the most level headed of the three. I
would imagine, too difficult.
Speaker 10 (18:12):
Pet Peeves, Yeah, yeah, I guess things that just IRRITAK.
Speaker 1 (18:15):
Always got a million of those, right, I mean a
lot of people share some and some of them are
I'm always most fascinated by people who have really, really
like esoteric pet peeves are like, you know, I really
don't like when somebody like eats their peas one at
a time, like that kind of stuff. That's very entertaining
to me because I have a billion pet peeves, but
they're usually super nerdy and there's nothing that anybody be
(18:37):
able to relate to.
Speaker 6 (18:38):
I love how I took the took the sniper bullet
in that too. She's all nice sounding.
Speaker 1 (18:43):
Oh, I think it's so cute when we get aggravated
alan and rage and rob every day that ends and why?
And I'm like, come on, yeah, right, you know what
she said. Every day that ends and why? Don't give
me why.
Speaker 14 (18:57):
I'm curious about.
Speaker 6 (19:00):
How about this mother smucker? Don't poke the bear right,
then I'll be fine.
Speaker 1 (19:04):
How's that? Don't do it?
Speaker 9 (19:06):
He's getting mad?
Speaker 6 (19:07):
No, I'm getting ornery. It's difference. Gotta have it moist.
It's right, just leave it moist. Everybody's fine.
Speaker 1 (19:15):
Anything can be fine. I was reading about the country
of Latvia. They have a big man shortage. They got
a big problem where the female population far out numbers
the male population. Now, I don't know what put them
front and center in this story because there were probably
a lot of countries like this, but the country of
(19:36):
Latvia is in a full blown man drought, is what
they're referring. They've got, and so the point of this
article was not just that, but it has sparked a
new industry. Necessity is the mother of invention in all things.
And they have guys who are kind of renting themselves
out for the husband experience. You know, you've heard of
(19:58):
the girlfriend experience, right, you want to you get yourself
an escort and you pay her top dollar and she's
with you for seventy two hours. And you know, they've
had television shows and movies to that effect. The girlfriend experience.
It's not just her, you know, comes up and saddles
your noggin for a couple of hours. It's like, you know,
she's going to dinner with you, and she's meeting some
of your friends or whatever. So there are guys there
(20:20):
in the country of Lotvia who are kind of flipping
that script and doing the same thing and renting themselves
out as hourly husbands is what they But you know,
hell wants to deal with that.
Speaker 6 (20:30):
I mean, I'll go over and do it but could
you imagine, Hey, husband, I need you to change out
that ceiling fan. He's gonna have me raging, just screaming
at in adam at objects.
Speaker 1 (20:39):
I hate this goddamn house. You want this, and you
wanted this husband experience.
Speaker 3 (20:43):
Here it is.
Speaker 1 (20:44):
Here's the husband experience. Just breaking things, throwing, screaming this
goddamn it in Latvian. No less right, yelling in Latvian.
Obviously they're going to understand. But didn't you misunderstood assignment?
This is not what I want, they said. Among seniors,
the divide is even more dramatic. Women over sixty five
in Latvia outnumber men two to one. But you know
(21:07):
what if you've never been to Latvia and I haven't.
One of my best friends is lot Vn and the
culture is it's like the sound of music. It's pine
forests and it's folk songs and it's all you know,
everybody walks around like the movie Midsummer and I would
have to think, listen, this is a country. Can we
(21:30):
export all of our in cells? You know what I mean?
And this is all these Andrew Tait Nick Fuentes acolytes, right,
all these dudes who just can't get laid and somehow
that's your fault. Ladies, Uh, what can we export them?
Get them laid? And that's always the core of these problems, right,
(21:51):
they just don't get laid. It's as simple as that.
And so Lotvia. So they have lot Via and women
who are kind of hiring men to be play the
husband role, to do things that I'm not getting the
indication that it's particularly sexual. It's probably more like what
you're talking about wrong, Yeah, hey, could you fix the
ceiling fan? No, I can swear at it, and they say,
(22:14):
they go, there's really no mystery. Latvian men just don't
live as long. They smoke way more than women in
that country, and that men worldwide higher rates of obesity
than women. And so it's as simple as that. It's
not like they're just not like they're getting on planes
and flying out of Latvia.
Speaker 6 (22:33):
They want like the boyfriend experience. I think, I don't
think you want the husband experience, the like coming home,
long day of work, eating, taking a twelve minute dump like.
Speaker 1 (22:44):
I don't wonder that. I wonder why the difference is
so stark in Latvia, though, because the things that they describe, right,
guys smoke, poor diet. That's everywhere. That's this country, for
God's sake. So I know, obviously we have way more
people here than in the country of Latvia. But you know,
if your country doesn't have enough man, they'll hire them.
(23:06):
So I'm just again, I'm being cheeky with the export
the in cells. It's not like they would know what
to do anyway, but to play themselves. There you go,
we should go do it. Companies over there in Latvia
have programs like men with Golden Hands. Guys will show
(23:26):
up to fix leaky pipes. Rob, do you have pipe
it's leaking? I told this. It was called that.
Speaker 2 (23:35):
There is pipe need the fixing?
Speaker 1 (23:38):
Or do you need cabnets? Right there? I was sent
from leaky pipe company. You need help?
Speaker 12 (23:43):
Yes, I heard you had something needed to be mounted.
Speaker 1 (23:47):
Till that stupid American pussy trying to fix your ceiling
fan to get out day these home?
Speaker 2 (23:53):
Did these homes?
Speaker 1 (23:55):
The home? Did the home there?
Speaker 12 (23:57):
They don't smoke? Ye that they don't in your Commandma,
don't and roll.
Speaker 1 (24:02):
Do me favor you want? Husband? What are you fixing
for dinner? While I fix pipes? Tell you what you
fire up?
Speaker 2 (24:09):
Fresh goat?
Speaker 1 (24:11):
I will mount more than television even sound like that
laughy Probably sure, I would imagine, right, Hey, post Soviet,
why not Eastern European. Yes, I will fix pipes, I
will fix toilet, I will fix anything. Just keep me
happy and fed fat. You pull up bloomers.
Speaker 12 (24:31):
It looks like it looks like renovated fireplace on the bag.
Speaker 10 (24:36):
I would need a man forced to open this jar
of jolapenos that I've been trying to open for weeks.
Speaker 12 (24:41):
I will open jar of jalapenos for you, and then
mount on walls.
Speaker 15 (24:45):
Yes, my dearhead or television, I will open betwixt cheeks.
You wash him very very strong. I will kill a
moose and squirrel if you know what I mean.
Speaker 12 (24:56):
I will murder that squirrel underneath your bloomer. O.
Speaker 1 (25:03):
My, so when this jar of halapennos for me? How
long have you been trying to open this jar of holapennos.
Speaker 9 (25:09):
It's probably been like three four months.
Speaker 1 (25:12):
So it's sitting there mocking you, and it's as of yet.
Speaker 10 (25:14):
Just sometimes when I'm feeling it, I'm like, all right,
today's the day I loosened it up enough and I
still can't get.
Speaker 1 (25:19):
You don't have one of those contraptions that you put
around like a collar that goes around a difficult jarliver.
You run it under water. I've done everything on the counter.
You don't have people in your life, I will bang
on the count. I asked my five months old, and
you just stared at me.
Speaker 6 (25:35):
Yeah, what about a neighbor.
Speaker 1 (25:37):
If you don't have a family member, come over every
once in a while, No, can you skye.
Speaker 10 (25:41):
I'll just bring it over to someone's house and be like,
can you open bring it in here, I'll open it perfectly.
Speaker 1 (25:48):
One of us will open it. You are going to
be neck deep in fresh holapennos. I love eating jlapenos
from the jar. It's such a good snack.
Speaker 10 (25:55):
And then I get the jalapeno blues and then it's
not fun.
Speaker 12 (25:58):
It is such a good snack in middle night, and
then you spend all night's throat thing jlapeno blues.
Speaker 1 (26:04):
Yeah, your stomach hurts really bad. And you call that
the holopeno blues. Yeah, we call them the klopeno browns
hlapeno brown. By the way, he was a wide receiver
for the Colts back in the day. If you remember, Yeah, wow,
the jalapeno. So you'll eat holopagno's out of just straight yep,
no chaser out of a jar. And then you get
(26:26):
the hlopeno blues. Yep. Wow, I love spicy food. I
do too, but I've never sat there in ate jar
of halopen Yeah. I like them on food. I never
thought of them as a snack.
Speaker 9 (26:41):
And then your throat hurts because it's burning.
Speaker 1 (26:44):
Yeah, so you like that? Yeah, I'll drink the juice.
Oh boy, wow, you need to put it in some
margarita and you don't drink though. This is what it is,
rob this. These are the lengths to which people are
push when they're trying to maintain their sobriety. Just like
I love jalapeno juice and I need something to make
me feel alive off. Yeah, it reminds.
Speaker 9 (27:05):
Me of the Lord.
Speaker 1 (27:06):
The hulopano blues. Now, how long do those last?
Speaker 9 (27:10):
Could be? A day, could be. It's until you poop.
Speaker 1 (27:13):
Oh you don't know.
Speaker 9 (27:15):
It tells you.
Speaker 1 (27:16):
Till she has squirt, right, Yeah, you got to use
corn as a timer.
Speaker 10 (27:24):
I told everyone before I had Wesley that I was
gonna eat a bunch of corn.
Speaker 1 (27:28):
Yeah, delivery room poop, just shoot it across the pin,
ping ping, ping, ping ping ping, doctor's last day. Screw this.
I don't care how much I'm making. This sucks. I'm out.
He's like Danny Glover and lethol Weapons. I'm too old
for this. Yeah, he's retiring. He's sitting on a toilet
(27:49):
and there's a bomb on it. I'm too old for
this shrimp or the Hulopano blues. Yeah, it's like a laxative.
Speaker 9 (27:56):
You just don't know when it's gonna hit.
Speaker 1 (27:58):
This is a new one for me. All right, well good, well,
bring that jar in, Joe, I will. Yeah, I'm gonna
free this out for it, all right. I only got
a couple of more days left before we split.
Speaker 9 (28:10):
Yeah, and then it's a couple more beats.
Speaker 1 (28:12):
Without it's just staring at that jar mocking you.
Speaker 2 (28:16):
A Cox Show on one seven, call the Alan Cox Show.
Speaker 1 (28:24):
You met Allen? Oh my god, I forgot about Allen. Okay,
you have a white board.
Speaker 5 (28:29):
Two six seven eight one double oh seven or one
three four eighty one double o seven.
Speaker 1 (28:56):
Yes, Kamali A's are back on the floor tonight. They're
going to be in DC to play the Wizards. Seven
o'clock tip tonight, six thirty pregame minutes after we roll
out for the weekend, you'll get your Calves coverage here
on MMS. I will have the last pair of tickets
for you for one week from tonight. That's the back
half of that Calves Bulls series. First game Wednesday in Chicago,
(29:20):
then one week from tonight here at home. So five
ten this afternoon, last two tickets for that Calves Bulls
two game series here in Cleveland. But every single bucket
and missed shot and squeak of the snakes you'll hear
on WMMS, your FM home for Cleveland Cavaliers basketball. Hopefully
(29:43):
with a reduced rate of missed shots. That would be great.
That would be ideal, a reduced rate of missed shots. Yes,
the RRMS, I believe if you're keeping your data at home.
The Washington Wizards have thus far been a terrible time.
So we'll see what happens tonight. But MMS and on
the iHeartRadio app, you could listen to the Kabaliers game
(30:06):
tonight at seven o'clock. Hey Scott, Hi, everybody, what's going on? Scott?
How are you?
Speaker 3 (30:15):
I'll defer on that question because one wants.
Speaker 11 (30:18):
To hear that.
Speaker 1 (30:18):
Well, Okay, give give me a give me in as
much as you can be concise about. And I know
there's a lot of it's difficult to make these explanations succinct, Scott,
but just give us a brief update.
Speaker 3 (30:34):
I'm back at work. It's the first week back.
Speaker 1 (30:36):
Okay, back at work. And has that been difficult for you?
Speaker 11 (30:39):
Yeah?
Speaker 16 (30:39):
Actually got used to be a lazy bumman laying laying
in bed twenty hours a day trying to heal them.
So I feel like I worked eighty eighty nine hours
this week. Just I am sore in places I didn't
know what to hurt.
Speaker 1 (30:53):
Well, sure you've gone from zero to sixty, haven't you? Yeah, yeah, yeah,
but you're but you continue to be on the mend.
At least.
Speaker 3 (31:03):
The way it works is it's healed enough to where
it can be working. And first day I could.
Speaker 16 (31:08):
Tell already the process is starting again where it just
starting to dissolve from the inside. A little acid, just
acid dripping from the inside. It just just we'll see
what happens.
Speaker 1 (31:22):
You're doing what you're saying, Yeah, Rob, it's acid. Insofar
as the phrase acid dripping from the inside is a
positive thing, Yes, prognosis positive is what we're talking about.
All right, he's cosplaying the Alien movie franchise over there.
Speaker 11 (31:37):
Rob.
Speaker 1 (31:37):
Okay, Scott, how can I help?
Speaker 3 (31:40):
Well, two quick things.
Speaker 16 (31:42):
I heard you've talked about the Christmas Special and Rob,
I didn't know you you you did that because I
was there for that. I think it was the first
one he did, the first one with us. Yeah, yeah,
I didn't did I even like, did I meet you
that day?
Speaker 1 (31:55):
You did?
Speaker 16 (31:56):
I just must have not put it together then, because
I think the first couple of.
Speaker 3 (31:59):
Times I mix your all right, well, yeah, were you?
Speaker 1 (32:01):
It was?
Speaker 6 (32:01):
I was just you know, the background guy for the
first three years I was here, so.
Speaker 1 (32:06):
You know it wasn't wasn't that big a deal?
Speaker 9 (32:08):
Mm hmm.
Speaker 3 (32:09):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (32:09):
I feel like I thrust into the limelight. Golly. Also, well, first.
Speaker 16 (32:15):
On ar, Sorry, I always forget to tell you every
time I talk to you that I do like these
theme weekends, and I always how many times I talk
to you, and I keep forgetting. So I'm on the
phone now like these are these like seventies, eight, eighties,
nineties and whatever's they're they're teynically feel like I'm, you know,
an old man that likes it and relived the times
(32:36):
that were happy, so I keep keep the weekends going.
Speaker 3 (32:40):
I like those.
Speaker 1 (32:41):
Anything to make you a little happier, Scott, I will.
I will do them every weekend if they put a
smile on that face of yours. If we can stem
the tide of internal acid with the specialty weekends, right exactly, yes,
we'll do.
Speaker 3 (32:53):
So.
Speaker 16 (32:53):
Speaking of putting a smile on my face, so I'm
gonna have to get myself out to Latia, right, This is.
Speaker 1 (32:58):
What I'm saying now. A handful of did point out
to me on the text to go. You know, allen
me sadly, the shortage of a lot Van men is
probably because they're getting thrust into the war in Ukraine.
And that's probably no small thing either, but you know,
by and large they're like, yeah, these guys are otherwise
not in great shape. But yeah, get thee to Lotvia, Scott.
Speaker 16 (33:20):
I do. I do love me some Lotvian women. If
I can tell you a quick story, I won't get.
Speaker 1 (33:26):
Too you mean Lotvians, you mean a lot Vian hookers.
I mean they're women too. They're women. First, I know
there are women. I'm just saying, knowing Scott, as we do,
what's the likelihood he met a lot Van civilian. Probably
not probably she was probably in the business, right.
Speaker 3 (33:46):
Of course.
Speaker 1 (33:47):
Yes, I was really hoping. No, no, you think he's
walking down the street, mean the Latvian women. I think
I was hoping he had like a there was a
like a time in his life where he had a
lot Vian friend or something. Go ahead, Scott. He was
smuggling things into Estonia and he met a lady at
the border and they fell in love. On the shores
(34:09):
of the Gulf of Ringa, they fell in love, Rob,
All right, go ahead, Scott.
Speaker 16 (34:15):
So what are the odds you think I would have
met two loveing women that are both lovely women?
Speaker 3 (34:24):
You think that's, like God.
Speaker 1 (34:26):
What are the odds? Probably very very small.
Speaker 16 (34:30):
And then when I find out, you know, months or
a year later, uh one of them, let slip that
their sisters. Yes, yes, yeah, yes, like one of my
one of my pairs of sisters that I've been able
to spend time with them.
Speaker 1 (34:47):
Imagine being Eskimo's sisters, Intuit sisters with stripper Scott, Rob
and how it comes to Wow, that is not a story,
with all due respect, that is not a story that's
gonna want to get to repeatedly around the familial holiday
dinner table.
Speaker 6 (35:04):
They're together over a holiday sharing cigarettes. You would not
believe the other day, I have a man come and
I have a leaky foot, And I say, what is
wrong with foot?
Speaker 2 (35:13):
You have man with leaky foot?
Speaker 1 (35:15):
Do I have man with leaky foot? He talk about
nothing but acid springing from inside Bobby, and then some
of the acid came out and onto my face. And
I did not know what was this man?

Was his name Scott?
Speaker 3 (35:30):

Yeah, my godness, we got to ask you about sisters
at top of friends sisters? Did he have you ride
him like pony and grab ponytail? Did he did he
tell you to get on his back and kick him
in the butt.

It's funny because the way it works, like I don't
want to like peelback. That got too much, But they
make sure they being safe, so they you have to,

Speaker 3 (36:00):
To which I like, Hey, I got this request from
this guy that put your name down. Oh yeah, he's fine.

to keep his head above water. Is give him her

buddy Ethan up there in Rochester. He goes, Jesus, that

Jess has spent three months trying to open the same jar,
why wouldn't she just buy another jar of jullapanos. At
this point, I've got to think, and I don't want
to speak for you, kind of think it's the principle
of the thing. By now it is.

Oh we have a hype playlist?
Speaker 1 (40:59):
Was that Little John and the Yin Yang Twins? Sure was? Yeah.
Speaker 6 (41:03):
They played at the uh the last CALVS game I
went to. They were the halftime entertainment. Oh yeah, the
Yin Yang Twins.
Speaker 1 (41:09):
It was great.
Speaker 3 (41:09):
All right.
Speaker 6 (41:10):
They did that song and you see all these parents
who have no idea what skeet skeet means. The kids
are singing it with their parents, and I'm like, oh,
that's just oh yeah, but it's just fun, I know.
But they're singing about oh, skate skate flying U.
Speaker 1 (41:28):
Stuff from the windows to the walls, from the windows
to the walls, till the sweat drips down. Where There's
got to be an AI version of the song, right,
hold on to the sweat drops und all right, listen
that's what she's playing on her hype playlist.
Speaker 10 (41:49):
No I add lib, Well, there's one baby song where
I add lib. I pretend I'm woll John and I'm
I put some little John sounds in it.
Speaker 1 (41:58):
Right, Okay? Go whatever turned down from? Yeah? Yes, turned down?
Speaker 13 (42:05):
For what?
Speaker 1 (42:06):
You play that for him?
Speaker 10 (42:07):
No, it's called one Little Finger. Oh oh god, no boy,
it's a baby's song.
Speaker 1 (42:11):
There's a documentary on HBO. I don't know if it's
premiering this weekend, but I saw I was watching something
and they had a trailer for it. It's called Happy
and you Know It And oh I started streaming on
Christmas Day and it's about it's a documentary about annoying
kids music. So they talked to the Wiggles. I'll tell
you the guy who's really mad is the guy who
(42:32):
did the original Baby Shark and then that that app
company stole it from him. Ye, that Pink Pong. They
took it, changed it, made tons of money on it.
This guy sued them, but he lost. He did it
back in twenty eleven, a guy named Jonathan Wright. He
was doing music as a Johnny only and here's his
(42:52):
initial original version of Baby Shark.
Speaker 17 (43:01):
Baby Baby, It all sucks.
Speaker 1 (43:14):
But I mean the guy the Cadence is wrong, Well
that's his version, and he said they stole it, they
made it better. Well he's how much harder is that? Yeah?
This guy's his dues are off is terrible. Nevertheless, it
was his song.
Speaker 6 (43:31):
Well you know what, they wouldn't have stolen it and
made it better if if if that group of people
that stole it released that they wouldn't have a hit.
Speaker 1 (43:38):
Yeah, I guess that's a good point. Anyway, this documentary
is called Happy and you Know It, and it's like
it's a lot of parents being like, yeah, this music
makes me want to blow my brains out, but my
kids love it. I'm so happy that my daughter, my
nine year old, was never into this kind of stuff.
She was never in the Baby Sharks. She never wanted
to hear kids bop. She didn't even care about She
(44:01):
doesn't care about what the hell is it called frozen,
couldn't care less about that stuff. She wants to watch
Bob's Burger's and The Simpsons and Gumball and and and uh,
gravity falls. I'm so happy speaking you've never had to
put up with that stuff.
Speaker 6 (44:18):
Happy and you know what did you ever see the
video of Craig Robinson doing it on on Jimmy Kimmel, No,
he curses, So if you're going to play, try to find.
Speaker 1 (44:27):
An edited version. He curses on Kimmel. On Fallon. Craig
Robinson is on Fallon and he starts to prime, but
he can't curse on Fallon.
Speaker 6 (44:35):
They believe, well, I think you get the unedited version
you search it that you don't.
Speaker 1 (44:39):
Get the Tonight Show for twenty fourteen.
Speaker 18 (44:41):
Yeah, it's it's so he does.
Speaker 6 (44:59):
The way that clip goes is he he actually sings
it the second time, so he's trying to take him
through and he goes, if you're happy, and you know,
clap your hands in the whole place, clasps and the
when he gets to stop your feet, he get if
you're happy and you know, and everybody claps again and
that's when he says, it's it's stomp your feet your
mother efforts.
Speaker 1 (45:14):
I think it was just classic. We go back a
low ways with Craig Robinson. He just had a birthday again.
I think he is one of the funniest dudes. Oh God,
is he funny. I think his stand up's great. Well, yeah,
but he made a big deal. He said he retired.
Well that was old. No.
Speaker 5 (45:27):
No.
Speaker 1 (45:27):
A couple months ago, he's like, I'm retiring from stand up.
Oh blah blah blah. Like he lost a bunch of weight, right,
he was keeping himself in shape. His birthday was like
a few days before Halloween, and but he was like, yeah,
I'm retiring. It was like in all like the you know,
entertainment blogs and stuff like that, he's retiring from stand up.
But now I seem to have a stand up again.
(45:48):
I'm happy about that. But I don't know what's going
on with him.
Speaker 3 (45:51):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (45:51):
I think he's amazingly funny, very very funny. Right, Yeah,
he just turned fifty four a couple of weeks ago. Yeah,
I love that clip. That was from twenty fourteen. You
said twenty fourteen, Holy cow. Yeah, he's from Chicago. Went
to ISU, did he really? He did Illinois State and
then he got a master's in education. He was a
(46:12):
teacher at Saint Xavier, which is a private college in Chicago.
But yeah, a couple of months ago, they were like,
Craig Robinson announces he's retiring from standap. So I wasn't
sure if that was a bit but I was like,
I mean, it's not like the guy does the road
really occasionally he would. That was the last time he
was on this show. I think he did hilarities, but
(46:33):
for the most part he just does like in and around.
LA was doing shows. I think once you make office money,
you probably stop touring hard for a while if you
don't need to, I would imagine. I guess he had
a show on that didn't last very long, and I
thought it was great. There was a The Craig Robinson
Show I think where he played a teacher. Yeah, but
(46:53):
then he had a show on Peacock called Killing It.
Did you watch that?
Speaker 3 (46:56):
I did not.
Speaker 1 (46:57):
It only lasted two seasons. It was him in this
Australia This I guess woman who's a real big deal
in Australia. This comedian named Claudia Doherty. And he's just
a guy who's living in Miami. He has a daughter
with his ex wife. His ex wife is deaf, so
the actress is actually death playing her. So there's a
lot of signing in the show. But he's trying to
(47:17):
find a way to make money and so he gets
on board that whole you know, the Python challenge in Miami.
Speaker 3 (47:24):
Yep.
Speaker 1 (47:25):
So he and this woman decide to go into like
the world of Python hunting. I don't think anybody watched it.
It was two seasons and then it got canceled, but
it was so funny called killing It. Yeah. Over on Peacock,
I think he's great. I'd watch him do anything the
hot Tub Time Machine. So as far as whether or
(47:47):
not to Kevin and Akron, whether or not Lil John
says Monroe in this I don't know and get low,
but you hear what you want to hear, right, mon Monroe, Monro.
Speaker 2 (48:02):

Speaker 4 (48:47):
Any what's Up guesses may not understand what a tricycle
or a bicycle is, or know the names of cheese.
But I'm glad to hear she at least gets Seinfeld
references little any sign page.
Speaker 11 (49:03):
Guys.
Speaker 1 (49:04):
Golly, that has a bit of a problematic recreation there,
I little year. Yeah, Jess had two has had two cars,
both named Jerry Seinfeld. One was Little Jerry Seinfeld. Right, Hey,
is that your chicken making all that noise? Oh Jerry
loves the morning? Who little Jerry Seinfeld name my chicken
(49:30):
after you? Thanks? It's very sweet. But that is not
a chicken, of course it is. I picked it out myself.
Well you picked out a rooster. Well, that would explain
Little Jerry's poor egg production. Oh, Kramer, you are incorrigible.
You see Jerry Seinfeld popping up in the New Larry
David Show. I didn't know that. What's the new Larry
(49:52):
David Show. It's untitled yet there is. HBO was rolling
out kind of a montage of shows that are going
to be in the next year, in twenty twenty six,
and one of them is an untitled Larry David show,
and it looks like it might be did you ever
watch Drunk History? Okay, the Derek Waters Show. It looks
like it's going to be not that same premise, but
(50:17):
like a like a period sitcom, like he's in old
timey gear or something. Oh boy, I don't know how
to describe it. It's it's an untitled Larry David thing.
But one of the clips in the montage was him
and Jerry Seinfeld in like powdered wigs or something. So
that is part of the HBO slate six. Those guys. God,
(50:37):
it must be a fortune. I bet they're just doing
it for the love of the game at this point.
I mean that they don't need the money. Oh I know.
So it's like a matter of you know, but to
get them to do anything, you got it, there has
to be a massive amount of money attached to it. It
has to be You're probably right, but I still get
the vibe from both of those guys that they're not
They don't like sitting around, you know. Well, Larry David
(50:59):
back day famously he left Seinfeld before the show was
off the air, and so Jerry just ended up doing everything.
He was the EP, he was the head writer, all
that kind of stuff, and he talked about how very
difficult it was because before that it was him and
Larry David and Larry David was burned the f out
and was you know at the time. You know, when
we've talked about this, when you're in it, you're like,
I got to get out of this, and then you're
(51:20):
out of it and you're like, I got to get
back it in this. And I think that's what happened
with Larry David. I mean, Curb Your Enthusiasm was on
longer than Seinfeld. Yes, I think number of seasons and
length of time because he would take like five six
years off in between seasons. But I think he did
eleven seasons over the course of twenty years.
Speaker 6 (51:38):
Oh, he's teamed up with the Obamas for this. The
Obamas are executive producing the show and it is a yeah,
there's no name on it yet, but it says it.
Speaker 1 (51:47):
Is a.
Speaker 3 (51:50):
Where the hell I just.
Speaker 1 (51:51):
Flew by it. Oh yeah, it's just how white folks
will do you A sketch comedy limited series about American history,
So sketch comedy. It's going to have that curb vibe
to it.
Speaker 6 (52:01):
So it's probably gonna be that Larry David unscripted type
of thing, which.
Speaker 1 (52:05):
Is going to be great. That's just how white folks
will do you. Well, listen episodes. Nobody wants to teach
actual history in school anymore, so they might as well
have some kind of Larry David tinged comedic parody history.
It'll teach history still kind of sort of yeah, maybe sure,
what's the deal with suffrage? David will also star in
(52:27):
all six episodes. There you go, a limited series. Oh man,
I can't wait. Congratulations. I always want new stuff from
those guys, little Yarry Seinfeld. Have you been reading the
Liam Neeson story?
Speaker 3 (52:42):
No?
Speaker 1 (52:42):
Okay, So Liam Neeson is catching flak because he narrates
some documentary you know RFK cap'n Brainworm over there, who's like,
you know, decimated the CDC. These guys have all kinds
of like manufactured claim about crayons cause autism and you
(53:02):
eat horseworm or all this crap, right, RFK Junior, anti
vax the whole bit. Well, I guess they did a
documentary called Plague of Corruption and Liam Neeson is the narrator,
and people are like, what the hell is this? Because
Liam Neeson has always been very pro vaccine. He does
work for UNISEF around the world. He's a very like
(53:24):
upfront guy with that kind of stuff, and people are like,
did he get tricked into doing this? Because that has
happened before, where they'll get prominent people to narrate or
be part of a documentary and then in the editing
process it's something completely different. And so people are like,
did Liam Neeson? What's going on here? So he's had
(53:45):
to try to do damage control over this thing and
be like, no, I'm very much in favor of vaccines
and it's a remarkable part of the human history and
blah blah blah. And so they're like, why is he
a part of this documentary? And he doesn't quite explain.
I mean, listen, you can do whatever you want to do.
Well when you len, when you lend your name to something,
(54:09):
people assume that that is an endorsement of it. I
remember about ten fifteen years ago there was a documentary
called The Principle, and it was all this fake science
about how, in reality, hor horror, the Earth is the
center of the Solar system, right, And they got this
actress named Kate Mulgrew, who if you're a Star Trek nerd,
(54:33):
she was Captain Jane Way in one of those Star
trek iterations. But Kate Mulgrew is a very accomplished actress.
She was in an Apple show last season called Oh God,
what was the Apple Show with? Where they were this
based on true story the Philly guys running the Dope.
(54:53):
I didn't watch that. I heard about that though. It
was called Dope Thief. It was great Brian Tyree Henry
and yeah, it was really good called Dope Thief. Him
Diego Mora and Kate Mulgrew is in it anyway, long
time ago. Kate Mulgrew narrates and they talked to a
bunch of prominent scientists and astrophysicists, guys like Michio Kaku
(55:14):
and Larry Krause in this documentary, and all of them
are like, oh, they re edited this whole thing. We
had no clue it was gonna be like this pseudo science,
made up crap documentary. But their voices were in it,
their faces were in it. So people were like, is
this what happened to Liam Neeson? Liam Neeson probably just
(55:37):
saw a paycheck. To your point, those guys aren't making
twenty million bucks a movie anymore. I know they're not.
But he does so many movies now does he need Maybe?
I don't know what the guy's life is. You know,
I don't either. That's that's the thing, right, Like how
much you think he made to do Naked Gun, which
was not good? Well, I've tried to watch it twice more.
(55:58):
Oh god, it was not good. It wasn't And I
was so bummed out because I really really wanted anyway.
All the people around AREFK. Junior, by the way, keep
trying to drill down this thing that like, he's not
anti vaccine, he's anti bias and blah blah blah. He
doesn't know what the hell he is. Well, we do
know what he is. He's not a medical professional or
(56:19):
a scientist of any stripe whatsoever. But he's running the CDC. Okay, fine,
that's not even like a scandal anymore, because everybody in
position in this current administration has zero business being in
their position. But Liam Neeson narrating this documentary. They're like, yeah,
I don't even know where you watch the thing. I
(56:39):
don't know if it's a YouTube thing. I don't know
if it's going to be in theaters. I have no idea.
But he's doing pr on this now. He's like, I
don't know that. He did really explain he's just like, no, no,
I'm not anti vaccin that. But I wonder how many
people down the list said no before they got to
(57:01):
Liam Neeson.
Speaker 3 (57:02):
Yes.
Speaker 1 (57:02):
Did you see the speaking of not wanting to explain things,
did you see the Gene Simmons interview. Uh, he was
walking the red carpet back Kennedy Center Honors and where
the guy says, how do you feel that Trump is doing?
And he goes why does it matter?
Speaker 6 (57:16):
Yeah, and he goes into a whole diatribe Simmons style.
Speaker 1 (57:20):
I'm here with a perfectly fine sexy woman tonight, and
I don't understand why you would care there. Shannon Tweed, Yeah, yeah, yeah,
what do you He's it is? It's the well epitome
of Gene Simmons answer. But also here's what I'll say
when when when you're a reporter on the red carpet,
I guess you have to make a split second decision.
(57:42):
Am I gonna ask Gene Simmons A Am I going
to try to get an incisive and substantive answer from
And you're not gonna like you? Why would you? So?
People are like, oh, that's a gotcha question. It's not
a gotcha question. It's a perfectly valid question to ask
a guy, just not Gene Simmons. No, because who cares
(58:03):
what Gene Simmons? I like Gene Simmons, but really, to
Gene Simmons' own point, why do you care what I think?
Speaker 3 (58:10):
Yeah?
Speaker 1 (58:11):
People used to speak their minds in a booth. No, well,
you're right here out asking me questions like he's not
the guy drives a twenty twelve Honda Pilot. He calls
us all the time. Isn't it twenty fourteen? Maybe you
feel like it's a little newer. Oh I think twelve
might be a little old for Gene Simmons.
Speaker 18 (58:26):
Yeah right, yeah, Gene Simmons, of kiss end of myself.
Speaker 1 (58:30):
Yeah, yeah, I thought it was. I thought it was.
It was funny because it was clearly a guy who
did not understand who he was talking to asking that question.
Speaker 3 (58:38):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (58:39):
You just see Gene glaze over instantly. He's like, yeah,
here we go. Mm. Yeah. So have you talked about
Gwen Stefani and the Hallow app? I saw that. No,
but it's her thing. She does a Jesus app, Gwen
Sefani's way into Jesus and she married Blake Shelton. That's
not by accident, right, you have similar values to somebody
(59:01):
that you're going to marry. And she was with when
she was a younger woman. She's with Gavin Rosto for
many years, I think that. And she got older and
I'm sure something's changed in her life and she married
Blake Shelton and she's very, very into Jesus and so
as a result of that, there's an app, Prayer app,
and so you'll see a lot of her promos on
social media. That's fine. I'm a problem with that. I
(59:24):
think it's hogwashed, but it's her life. She can do
what she wants. It's a paid app, too, and I
don't know why people are giving her a hard times.
Is that what it is?
Speaker 3 (59:32):
Yeah?
Speaker 1 (59:33):
Oh it's paid. Yeah, but isn't every app paid? I
don't know every single app. Now, if you want more
than the basic fundamental functions of an app, they give
you the bare minimum of everything and then they go, hey,
it's only five dollars a month from here on out.
Speaker 3 (59:47):
Yeah.
Speaker 6 (59:47):
I think it's I think people are just pissed off
just with Gwen Stefani.
Speaker 1 (59:52):
But I don't know why. I don't know why we're
playing around the nineties. Weekend yes, we are. I don't
have I've met Gwen Sefani on a couple of occasions,
I mean many years ago, and I mean she was
a lovely person. I don't care what she believes. I
don't either, as long as she's not trying to hammer
those shoes on other people's feet.
Speaker 6 (01:00:10):
People are giving her crap though, over the fact that
she's the girl power woman or was, and then it's
you know, the app is a lot of you know,
anti abortion content, that sort of stuff fueled by the whomever, right,
and they're saying that that's where everybody's flipping out again.
Speaker 1 (01:00:33):
I couldn't care, Like, yeah, but I don't care, right,
But it's like, you're gonna have the usual suspects associated
with this kind of stuff. You're gonna have when Sefani,
you're gonna have Mark Wahlberg. He's a big Jesus guy too.
I think they were doing so when they first rolled out.
I think they were doing stuff with the Russell brand,
and then he got that rape beef on. I mean,
they were like eyes. That's no idea right now. Listen, man,
(01:00:57):
I don't believe in any of this stuff, but if
you do, that might be a valuable app for you.
I don't know.
Speaker 6 (01:01:03):
Seventy bucks a year offers Catholic prayers, meditation, and Bible stories,
which has been criticized for its conservative, anti abortion focus.
Speaker 1 (01:01:11):
But that's what a religious app is going to be.
I grew up cast. Yeah, that's what that's going to be.
It's not gonna everybody thinks that, like, since Pope Leo
is the pope now that the Catholic Church is like, hey,
what's up everybody? You know, they think that the church
is like POUCHI from the Simpsons or something.
Speaker 6 (01:01:27):
You know, people definitely got Yeah, they thought there was
going to be a lot more moving and shaken.
Speaker 1 (01:01:31):
I think with because the Pope was American. That's not
going to change the church. The pope is the most
popular guy that nobody pays attention to, right, I mean, yeah,
there's some novelty that he's from the United States. I
love that he's from Chicago. I love that. But it
doesn't change, you know, Catholic Church. So it doesn't change
(01:01:52):
the function of what's been And so you either stay
with that or you grow up and you get out.
And you know, Gwen Stefani, somewhere along the line, she
got BRILLIANTO Jesus. Probably part of her association with Blake Shelton.
That's fine, that's what I don't care. I didn't even
know what it was until I saw her. No, the
(01:02:12):
algorithm was putting that in as an ad for something.
I'm like, Okay, that doesn't affect me. But there's a
lot of people who might enjoy that. And you're going
to pay for most apps now, doesn't matter if it's
prayer app you're gonna it's a business. It's still a business,
just like the Catholic Church. It's a business. And so
(01:02:33):
and by the way, put your money where your mouth is. Uh,
you don't think all it's us worth a couple of ducats.
I mean, I think of it as tithing. How about that,
it's twenty first century tithing, stefani. If it's moving my
prayer to the top of the list, I'm paying, I'm in,
oh like special dispensation. Hey look, I paid seventy bucks
(01:02:55):
for this JC. Yeah, I'd like some special attention paid
right some to consider. Yeah, but I don't have a
for whoever asked me that in the text. I'm a
problem that word. If she's doing that's fine, and we
are playing some no doubt this weekend on the buzzard.
I heard spider Webs. Yeah, I heard the stands where
(01:03:15):
I play Spider Webs. Great song A wrap? Hey, Hope,
how you doing? How you doing?
Speaker 3 (01:03:25):
Man?
Speaker 1 (01:03:26):
I heard you guys giving when's the Fanny?
Speaker 6 (01:03:28):
I heard pay No one was giving Gwen Stefani a
hard time, Pope. I'm just letting you know we were
we were just reporting on the story.
Speaker 1 (01:03:37):
You know. I got a cut of every sale on
that app. Sure shot at rap I got a piece,
a good taste. I get a taste.
Speaker 6 (01:03:47):
I mean, seventy bucks a year doesn't seem bad. Do
you get Do you get special consideration on your prayers?
Speaker 1 (01:03:51):
Sure do.
Speaker 3 (01:03:52):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (01:03:52):
But I'm right at the top of the line, so
it gets right to you. And half off all ales
at Pelian Beef you on a month yourself. If I
don't leave in Chicago, how does this help me?
Speaker 2 (01:04:08):
It doesn't help you.
Speaker 1 (01:04:09):
But it's a part of the travel. And if you
find yourself there, you can get half off it. How
you beef, that's a good deal. That's a great you think.
So yeah, yeah.
Speaker 6 (01:04:19):
So you see every single one of those prayers that
come through.
Speaker 1 (01:04:22):
I don't see him. They go directly. They went stea Fanny,
and then who she's like a part time something, and
then who yeah, And she sends them up to the
big guy stairs. So it just skips you. Excuse me,
I'm busy, rap all right, I didn't know. I mean,
you're the head of the church.
Speaker 6 (01:04:39):
I didn't know if that was an allowed a church
head of the app true thing.
Speaker 1 (01:04:44):
So she sends them to the big guy upstairs. How's
things going over at the Vatican? Nice time upstairs?
Speaker 19 (01:04:50):
I mean Elliot Wintrout, he's our head of business development.
Speaker 1 (01:04:56):
Are you getting settled in over the Vatican post?
Speaker 11 (01:04:59):
Sure?
Speaker 1 (01:04:59):
Am you liking it? It's all right? You got an apartment? Yeah,
I saw you. You were the first first one to
go back quite some time to the old, the old
stomping grounds. Yeah. I call it my paintball stabbing cabin.
Not that they're not like that. What is it you're stabbing?
Speaker 2 (01:05:18):
Yeah?
Speaker 1 (01:05:18):
Well, man, staving things gotta go right. There's a lot
of prayers coming in, and I say, I beg any
sending to Gwenston Fan. All Right, all right, okay, Pop,
all right, Pope, thank you, thank you, Pope. All right, Pope,
thank you pop. Yeah, well listen. One of the first
(01:05:40):
times we spoke, he told me not to call him
by those formal names because I said you, I said
Pope the first time. He's like I like Dan and
he didn't want you calling him your excellence, your eminence.
Speaker 13 (01:05:53):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (01:05:53):
Yeah, Well he's very unassuming. You know, that's part of
that Midwestern charm. He's he's something I'm really I'm always
thrilled me, he joins us. Well, time out of his busy.
I don't want to know what he's stabbing, is all right,
I uh have got to take case. Yeah, well, some
things are better left unanswered, rob, like they told us
(01:06:15):
in Catholic school anytime they didn't have an answer. Well,
it's a mystery. Oh great science. The Allen Cox Show on.
Speaker 2 (01:06:23):
One hundred point seven.
Speaker 5 (01:06:28):
Point seven WMMS Cleveland called the Alan Cox.
Speaker 1 (01:06:32):
Show, and then the radio started playing, which made it even.
Speaker 5 (01:06:35):
Worse to made it more bizarre two one six seven
eight one double oh seven or eight three four eight
one double oh seven.
Speaker 1 (01:06:44):
Yeah.
Speaker 8 (01:06:47):
When I started grammar school, I used to stop off
in the best of you every time that bell ordering,
I'll take out my dang ing ling, oh dinging.
Speaker 1 (01:07:06):
I always thought the song had a happier tempo to it.
Speaker 11 (01:07:10):
It does.
Speaker 1 (01:07:11):
Yeah, there's a live version that was the live version,
is it?
Speaker 3 (01:07:16):
Yeah?
Speaker 1 (01:07:16):
I thought that there was the one you're talking about.
I think it was the one I was looking for,
but it couldn't has the crowd singing along with it. Yeah,
Chuck Berry and Steve Miller one of them. Anyway, somebody
sent me that today is National ding Aing Day. I
don't know what that means, but I guess when Chuck
Berry took a break from farting in Oaks faces, he
was singing songs for people in between water sports moments. Yes,
(01:07:41):
well listen, he was a guy who took life by
the horns, rob and really it's one way to put it. Yeah,
December the twelfth, National ding Aling Day. Every day has
a day, and some of them make more sense than others.
You know, if you work for the National Brock Council,
you got to figure out when you can have National
(01:08:04):
Broccoli Day. But Dingling Day on December the twelfth, and
nobody has the day to themselves.
Speaker 3 (01:08:11):
Right.
Speaker 1 (01:08:12):
It's also Gingerbread House Day. It's also the International Day
of Neutrality. Well, I don't know how to feel about that. Hmm,
pretty neutral. It's also National Ambrosia Day. Wouldn't that be
around Thanksgiving? There was no ambrosia at Thanksgiving dinner this year.
(01:08:34):
I thought you meant it was just a band celebration day.
I mean, it absolutely should be. But you know, pre Thanksgiving,
I was going off on this whole big tirade about
how my grandmother used to make ambrosia or frozen Waldorf salad,
that kind of stuff, and my mom, in her infinite wisdom,
historically has tried to recreate some of my grandmother's dishes.
(01:08:58):
I don't know if it's because their labor intensive. I
don't know if it's because everything was prohibitively expensive. In
the Trump economy, everything's terrible, and so I would imagine
that those pineapple chunks and Maraschino cherries aren't gonna buy themselves.
Rob there was no ambrosia at the Thanksgiving dinner table.
(01:09:21):
On the subject of Gwen Stefani and that Catholic prayer
app Mike and parm Text said, I am a holy
app girl. I am a holy app girl, ah instead
of hollow batgirl. Isom would yeah, yeah, So maybe you're right,
Maybe it is ambrosia. The band day, it's got to
(01:09:41):
be right. I don't think so. It should be. These
guys were hot for a minute back in the day,
and when people hear the song, they go, oh, I
like this song, but they have no idea who did it?
How much I feel of course, that was another big
one from Ambrosia. This is something that'll show up on
one of your yacht rock playlist.
Speaker 9 (01:10:02):
This one's a bop.
Speaker 1 (01:10:05):
I don't know how this whole business. What what's the
demarcation line? How do you distinguish between a banger and
a bop? Because I don't want to misuse them person
saying it is that as simple as that your personal preference.
I always think of a banger as being more uptempo
or a bop you can really just kind of like
(01:10:26):
vie with Yeah, you can vibe with that. You can
get your shoulders and your head into it. And you know,
is that fair to say?
Speaker 11 (01:10:32):
Right?
Speaker 1 (01:10:32):
Nobody would go, oh, this is a banger. You'd say
this is a bop. You could say this is a banger.
Would you head bang to this?
Speaker 12 (01:10:39):
No?
Speaker 1 (01:10:39):
But I don't have a head bang. I don't head
bang to anything. I mean, I'm a pretty laid back
metal head, which I'll tell you what jes like that. Well,
never theless, uh, you know, we do a metal show
here on the Buzzard. Funny you should mention that tomorrow
night it'll be our last two hours to midnight of
(01:10:59):
the year of twenty twenty five. Rob, we won't even
return live to the Friendly Confines until January the tenth.
Me and Corey Roddick and Pat Butler come in here
on Saturday nights and we do one hundred and twenty
minutes of nothing but metal. And we got some local
stuff this weekend. There's a local band called ten thousand
Rambos and the song we're gonna play from them is
(01:11:22):
fifty eight seconds long. That should give you a little
idea of what to expect. We're gonna play a band
called Frog Mallet. We're gonna play Cleveland's very own Chimera.
We gave away a bunch of tickets for Chimera. Christmas
the sixteenth in a series with them might be the last.
(01:11:42):
From what I'm hearing, Iron Reagan if people go back
with them. Some Christmas music from Rob Halford, frontman for
the band Judas Priest. You know he has his own
band called Halford and Robbie does a version of the
song We Three Kings and so so a couple of
nods to Christmas music and if you're into not everybody
(01:12:06):
likes heavy metal Christmas music. Rob Halfred is not one
of those people. He loves heavy metal Christmas music.
Speaker 13 (01:12:16):
Wow.
Speaker 1 (01:12:20):
Yeah, yeah, that's a pet Butler pick. So anyway, Tomorrow night,
ten midnight, two hours to midnight is our metal show,
last of twenty twenty five. Today's the birthday of one
Patrick Butler. It sure is so happy birthday. Congratulations Pal,
you did it. He made it. Speaking of our friends
(01:12:41):
and colleagues, I believe one Marcus Nolan Esquire and Jennifer
Pachano are still in the middle of their radio thon.
Speaker 6 (01:12:48):
Yes, yeah, they're over on Magic Clinic. Yeah, for Cleveland
Clinic Children's.
Speaker 1 (01:12:53):
I came in here as early as I usually do,
but this morning I was able to get into the
studio because they were over there doing their thing. Yep,
they weren't even in here, and so that it's an
all day broadcast for Cleveland Clinic where they're raising money. Yes, yes,
hot on the heels of our friendly Anne doing the
Saint Jude's thing.
Speaker 6 (01:13:13):
Right correct yet golly. End of the year, she raised
like one hundred and fifty five grand or something like that.
Speaker 3 (01:13:18):
Ye.
Speaker 1 (01:13:18):
Yeah, Lean's awesome, man. That's just probably by smiling at
people she was able to raise that money. She's delightful,
it's charming, and she's great lovely. Ellen, you guys should
play some Tomb of Feces. I haven't. We haven't produced
any new music in a long long time, and so
(01:13:42):
no Tomb of Feces there. I'll play these guys. The
project for you, huh? Was that a side project? Tom
Ofs was my death metal band. A listener was kind
enough to make me a custom drumhead for my kick drum.
But my craft work you're thinking of my kind of
craft work side project, it's called Stinkinhosen. That's the one. Yeah,
(01:14:04):
Stinkinhosen hasn't really done a lot of recent stuff either,
But tomafisis is. We've been on an extended a hiatus,
but we're looking forward to getting back to something. Who knows.
You never know what twenty twenty six will bring. Very exciting. Yeah,
you never do, right, Oh, I've got Brian for you.
(01:14:30):
Nice you want some Brian always? Now Again, this isn't
the song that he really does a lot with. But uh,
Brian's songs break out in a number of ways. One
of them is what the hell is this? Another one
is he's really making it his own. And then the
third one, when I put these into kind of little
mental silos, is he's pretty traditional with it. But can
you pick out the song? Sometimes they're real obscure, and
(01:14:53):
I think this one falls into that third silo.
Speaker 2 (01:14:56):
Well, you mean me in Montana?
Speaker 1 (01:15:02):
I won't see the mount dies your mm hmm reeny bells. No,
I do not know that song. Okay, you've never heard
meet Me in Montana. I don't think that I have. Okay,
should I have? Well, I mean it was a big
song mid eighties. It would have been meet Me in Montana.
(01:15:22):
Remember Dan Seals, Seals and Cross, Seals and Croft. He
was also England Dan and john Ford Coley. Well, I'm sorry.
His brother was Jim Seals. His brother was Seals and Croft.
Dan Seals was his own thing, Okay, like David S. Pumpkins.
And he was part of a band called England Dan
(01:15:43):
and john Ford Coley. My mom had that album I'd
Really Love to see You Tonight. Yep, that was him
but he did an album with Marie Osmond and Meet
Me in Montana was a big, big hit for them
where they duet it. It's brand new to me, man,
But Brian, this guy just pulls things out of thin air?
(01:16:07):
Did he? Did he stay true to what the og
sounded like?
Speaker 7 (01:16:11):
Kind of well, you meet me.
Speaker 1 (01:16:16):
Mont I won't to see the mountains, you're I mean
he didn't really, he didn't keep the tempo of it,
but I mean, why I assume that was gonna be
way slower? Yeah, meet Me in Montana was. Now, of course,
(01:16:38):
we have a lot of bureau chiefs in the great
state of Montana. That's a big sky country up there.
Speaker 3 (01:16:42):
Up.
Speaker 1 (01:16:45):
Let me find the song for you and see if
this would have been Yeah, the mid eighties and this
would have been a big duet hit for the two
of them. This is when Dan Seals was trying to
make the full on pivot from fondo seventies singer songwriter
(01:17:06):
to eighties country guy.
Speaker 11 (01:17:08):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (01:17:08):
That's he had a very smooth voice, you know, very
very raising my hand as a first time er here, man, Yeah,
never heard this one.
Speaker 2 (01:17:26):
Now.
Speaker 1 (01:17:26):
Marie Osmond, you know, when I was a kid and
Donnie and Marie were on. I had a big crush
on Marie Osmond. You know what, It's always kind of
the running joke, right her and Donnie, that her and
Donnie were But you know, she's had a lot of
work done as she does the nutri system or something
(01:17:46):
like that. But I think she still looks good. I
think Marie Osmond, who I think probably her whole body
is operated by a system of levers and pulleys. But
I think she still looks pretty good. She's now. Here's
the trouble you run into is that, ironically, in an
effort to stay looking young with cosmetic surgery, a lot
(01:18:09):
of times you can end up looking older than you are.
I'm not sure how to say that properly. I thought
that Marie Osmond was a lot older than she is,
just because she's had work done pretty consistently. She's only
sixty six.
Speaker 12 (01:18:22):
She's only sixty Sientnn says she's still tired, and it's.
Speaker 1 (01:18:27):
Good enough for me. She's sixty six years old. How
old will she be next year? Then? Oh, probably sixty
seven years seven next year. The pride of Ogden, Utah
and eight kids, five of them adopted. So she walks
(01:18:49):
the walk. But Marie Osmond, Yeah, she's had some anyway
back in the mid eighties. Simply no way to know
how many years ago that was.
Speaker 3 (01:19:00):
Alan.
Speaker 1 (01:19:00):
Can we get a best of Brian mashup? I mean,
I've got the one I've never like really updated it.
Speaker 7 (01:19:08):
But I make my living on the eve the news.
Speaker 1 (01:19:20):
News.
Speaker 7 (01:19:27):
We've all been speaker who's drive your.
Speaker 1 (01:19:47):
Why we call him the cowardly Brian? Things like Bert
Lar from the original original Wizard of Oz.
Speaker 13 (01:19:55):
For the tale what a lush I would show compush from?
Speaker 1 (01:20:04):
Oh boy, it's hard to tell them apart, right, Yeah, to.
Speaker 13 (01:20:08):
Be happy for your life.
Speaker 1 (01:20:10):
Don't make a pretty girl your west if you, from
my personal point of view, get an ugly girl to
marry you men sage advice. That was a tough one
for him. That was that was not his best word, No,
not really, not a creative liberty. Yeah, it's part of
his genius, you know, to day this, guys, to day
(01:20:30):
ninety to.
Speaker 11 (01:20:31):
Day, break all through the other side, Break all through
right right, break the other side.
Speaker 1 (01:20:49):
Now that's how you get the doors properly rated. Mm hmm.
You throw some Brian in there, and of course, as
it is Friday, a little under an hour, Rob will
do the Friday five o'clock finger bang Yes with Brian, Brian,
your thoughts, this is my actual penis all right, that's
not what I asked, But thank you the actual actual
(01:21:12):
Uh huh Alan, Who are your top five celebrities to
croak in twenty twenty six? Well, Andy Dick snuck into
my top five? Dick, I mean he is still hanging.
I don't know who's gonna When people ask that, I
assume that you mean not the usual suspects. Right, is
(01:21:35):
Dick van Dyke gonna die in twenty twenty six? If
he makes it all the way through twenty twenty five.
He's still going to the gym and stuff. He looks
good when he shaves. He looks good.
Speaker 10 (01:21:46):
Right.
Speaker 1 (01:21:46):
When Dick van Dyke lets himself get unkempt, you're like, oh, no,
somebody needs to buy that guy a sandwich. Where birthday
tomorrow is?
Speaker 12 (01:21:53):
Yeah?
Speaker 9 (01:21:54):
Wow?
Speaker 1 (01:21:55):
How did you know that? I looked it up? Oh
that question?
Speaker 9 (01:21:59):
I thought I read it a while ago and I
thought it was today.
Speaker 1 (01:22:02):
Right, he's one hundred tomorrow? What a guy? Diagnosis Murder
was a show he had about thirty years ago, and
I think they gave him a cameo when they rebooted
Mary Poppins years ago. Did you watch that? They did
a Mary Poppins thing with Emily Blunt. I think that's
who played her, And of course they threw him a
cameo nine the Museum. He's in those back in the day.
(01:22:23):
He's got a really really young wife. He's going to
be one hundred and his wife is my age. She's
fifty four. Boy married a woman named Arlene Silver. She
was his makeup artist. And you know, it's always got
to be a difficult line of questioning when they go,
(01:22:44):
how do you guys do it well? The age difference?
We don't and haven't. That's the entire time we ri
The woman has to be like, I've never seen his genitalia.
I've got he's forty six years older than me. What
do you want you gotta say? Clint Eastwood is probably
towards the top in that list are people who might die.
Speaker 6 (01:23:04):
Yeah, like you don't even really he doesn't even pop
out at stuff anymore, Like he's just that's. Last time
I saw him, he was doing the like pants up
to his teets, like reach for.
Speaker 1 (01:23:15):
His wallet over his shoulder, very thin not looking great.
Clint east Yeah, he'll be ninety six. Shatner Man. I
hate to say it, but Shatner's got to be top ten. Ironically,
Clint Eastwood was talking to chairs way before someone of
his age normally would be having conversations with inanimate objects.
(01:23:35):
Shatner looks all right because he's got a couple extra
LB's on him. Yeah, I think he's I think I
would put him in my top ten. But a lot
of these guys are smart because you don't realize how
old they are because the photos of them that still circulate,
they've got so many decades. And I don't mean like
stuff from the seventies, I mean stuff within the last
ten years. I remember how crazy it was after Gene
(01:23:59):
hack Men died and they were like he was almost
never seen in public. Somebody got a picture of him
and his wife in like downtown where they live, Albuquerque,
something like that, and he looked like he was two
hundred years old. And you go, oh my god, I
haven't seen Gene Hackman in forever, and there he is.
Speaker 6 (01:24:18):
You just forget about it, you forget oh right, That
was how I was when I saw the picture of
Clean Eastwood Sophia Loren.
Speaker 1 (01:24:26):
That's why I'm hoping that by the time we get
to be that age, the technology will have advanced to
the point where we can be wearing like Mission Impossible
style masks that render us with an AI face. So
people see us and go, oh my god, that's Alan Cox,
I think. And somebody else goes who, and they go
(01:24:47):
Alan Cox, and the person goes who, and they go,
you know, Alan Cox, and they go who, And uh oh,
I thought he was a lot older than that, but
look at his face. He's like a walking Snapchat filter.
Speaker 3 (01:25:04):
Why not?
Speaker 4 (01:25:06):
My problem with the Akron ribber Ducks is they'll be
responsible and not overserve you alcohol, but they will overserve you.
Speaker 1 (01:25:14):
Hot dogs and a gay gout all the time, and
you know it's their fault. Random random very We were
talking about the Akron rubber Ducks the other day. People
were worried they were changing their name because they're change ownership.
Gout from too many hot dogs, I guess. So, I mean,
I like hot dogs, but I can't imagine having so
many that you would get gout. You know, they're looking
(01:25:36):
for wienermobile drivers again.
Speaker 3 (01:25:38):
Love that.
Speaker 1 (01:25:38):
I do like to let people know about this a
couple of times. They do in the summer, and they're
looking for people for the spring or next summer or something.
If you've recently graduated college, you can apply through the
last day of January. They're looking for kids, they call
them hot doggers. They're looking for kids to drive the
Wiener mobiles. And ever so often you'll see them. There
(01:26:01):
used to be one or two. I think there's a
fleet of them now, but they every so often. You'll
see them in northeast Ohio.
Speaker 9 (01:26:09):
I always see them on the highway.
Speaker 4 (01:26:10):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (01:26:11):
It's a twenty seven foot long Wiener and you drive
across country and you make these stops. The brand ambassadors
would be hot dogs. Yeah, but they pay you like
forty grand and they and benefits. You get a per diem.
Imagine you're somebody working your ass off and you can't
get benefits at your job, but you get them temporarily
(01:26:33):
because you're driving the Oscar Meyer Wiener mobile around and
you're just socking the money away because they're giving you
a per diem full health benefits package, eighteen days of
paid time off and one hundred percent of your hotel
expenses covered, so you're not really paying for anything. Yeah,
(01:26:54):

lot more time to do all the things Rob says
(01:28:27):
you don't get to do due to time constraints. If
you'd eliminate Brian and this horrible singing that adds up
just saying is what this person says, Just say it else.
Talk about Pet Peeves. Well, now, I'm just gonna want
to do it more, I know, right, And that's me
(01:28:49):
being a juvenile. Of course, absolutely, I will cop to it.
A lot of things I don't even want to do
until somebody tells me they don't want me to do them.
I have a deep seated mistrust of authority figures, and
yet I'm conflicted, Rob, because I understand the need for boundaries. Anyway,
(01:29:11):
whoever that is, sir or madam, you can huff my hole.
Brian ain't going anywhere, all right, Allan's celebrity death pool.
I bet Nicholson o'll go soon. You know what I
was just, why was I googling Jack Nicholson this morning?
Somebody mentioned him or he had come up as someone
who's I mean, he's been retired, but he's reclusive, and
(01:29:33):
I was like, how old now is Jack Nicholson. He's
got like six kids. He's eighty eight years old. And
this was a guy who back in the day was
obviously having dalliances with women much younger than him. Two
of his kids are with this actress named Rebecca Broussard,
who that was a big deal in the late eighties
that he was with her. She was an actress in
her own right, but she was like forty years younger
(01:29:54):
than him or something like that. But he was Jack Nicholson, right.
But you do get to a point, and I think
he was very mark to see it. You do get
to a point where, even if you're Jack Nicholson, you're like,
I don't want to be in public anymore because I
don't look the way I used to look. And so
now when you see him like court sided a Laker
game or something like that, right, he's very big and
(01:30:17):
he's Jack Nicholson. He's eighty eight years old. How dare
you put me in your death pool? Who the hell
do you think you are? I like some form of
dinnerware doing five Easy Pieces? Oh bitch, you can't handle
the truth. I was watching Five Easy Pieces not long ago,
(01:30:38):
like a few months back. This classic seventies probably early seventies,
Jack Nicholson. It's famous for a scene where he just
screams at this waitress. But he's a rich kid who's
trying to strike out and be an oil worker and
kind of get away from his overbearing wealthy family and
kind of cosplays as a redneck. But yeah, Nicholson's eighty
(01:31:03):
eight Alan I think Britney Spears will die in twenty
twenty six. See that's what I'm saying. That's the kind
of wild take here. Well, that's kind of wild card
that I think that you you know, these celebrity death
pools are kind of predicated on calls like that, right,
could Willie Nelson go yes? And I hope there's like
goddamn National Day of Morning when Willie Nelson goes Alan.
(01:31:25):
Of course, Jess knew how old Dick van Dyke was.
He's one of her hotties. Oh come on, yeah, crushes. Well,
she loves Stephen Tyler, who's a spring chicken compared to
Dick Vandyke. True, yeah, he's like Saty said, yeah, And
she loves Jerry Seinfeld. I mean he's seventy doctor Phil
(01:31:47):
Jerry doctor, not seventy years old? Sure is is what
I mean. Say is in good Jay. But Jerry Seinfeld said,
all those guys, all the comedians of that generation, like
Bill Maher, he's like sixty nine. I think. Nice. Yeah,
Jerry Seinfeld is seventy one years old. He'll be seventy
two in April. Why do I think he was like fifty?
Because he still looks good fifty and his wife's like
(01:32:09):
twenty five years younger than him.
Speaker 9 (01:32:11):
And you know he didn't book fifty to two.
Speaker 3 (01:32:13):
No, this show.
Speaker 1 (01:32:15):
The show was on in the nineties.
Speaker 9 (01:32:16):
Yeah, wasn't he like thirty then?
Speaker 1 (01:32:18):
No, he was like forty when that show was on.
I mean he was already he kind of got that
TV show late ish in his career. Jerry, are you
gonna go see hi when he comes back in February?
Speaker 3 (01:32:28):
Oh?
Speaker 1 (01:32:29):
Oh, I'd love to Playhouse Square February thirteenth.
Speaker 9 (01:32:32):
Ooh yeah, gonna write that one down.
Speaker 1 (01:32:35):
Super stalking. Three percent of tickets left, so it's all
most sold out. I didn't even know he was coming back.
I mean, he makes it through like every year here,
but I didn't know that he was coming back that
that soon. Jerry Seinfeld at the key Bank State Theater
Playhouse Square on February the thirteenth.
Speaker 9 (01:32:53):
Hot take. Though I don't think Jerry Seinfeld's funny.
Speaker 1 (01:32:58):
I can see that. I think Jerry so Heinfeld. I
used to get really upset when people would say they
didn't think Jerry Seinfeld was funny, but I had to
really take a step back from it. I appreciate Jerry
Seinfeld and I've seen him a handful of times. I
appreciate him primarily for his technique. And he's the first
one to say it. He goes, I'm not a guy
(01:33:18):
that you look at and just laugh. He's like, if
I didn't predicate my entire career on technique, there'd be
nothing funny about me. That's why he really needed Larry
David to make that TV show work. Yeah.
Speaker 9 (01:33:31):
I mean he's not funny, which makes it funny.
Speaker 1 (01:33:33):
I guess he's funny. He's funny, still funny. He's proven
to be funny because this is what I'm talking about. Technique.
He writes jokes and then he works them out until
they all work, and then he takes them on the road.
So he's so non he's so non precious about his material,
which a lot of comedians are. There's all kinds of
(01:33:54):
comedians that will you know, You'll see him do a
set and they'll go that joke never works, but I
love it.
Speaker 9 (01:34:00):
I had an ex and a lot of them. I'm
like Jerry Seinfeld when he would.
Speaker 1 (01:34:03):
Get mad, when he get his voice would go out, yeah.
Speaker 9 (01:34:06):
And I'd be like, dude, it's kind of hot. Stop
all these coming.
Speaker 1 (01:34:10):
Back together, right, that's why Jess got turned onto Jerry
Seinfeld's her boyfriend. Yeah, is it reverse engineered? They would
have makeup sex and you have to go. This feels
so good.
Speaker 9 (01:34:22):
It's like, stop, I'm not even mad at you anymore.
Speaker 16 (01:34:25):
Ah.
Speaker 1 (01:34:27):
Yeah, So you wouldn't go see him though, if you
don't think he's fine?
Speaker 4 (01:34:31):
Would?
Speaker 1 (01:34:31):
Okay?
Speaker 4 (01:34:31):
So why not?
Speaker 9 (01:34:32):
I've never seen him in person?
Speaker 1 (01:34:33):
So were you? Did you watch the show or no? Okay?
Speaker 10 (01:34:37):
And then I think this was God twenty seventeen or
something like that. I wanted to go see him, but
his tickets were sold out, so me and my friend
went to New York instead.
Speaker 1 (01:34:46):
Why would you go if you don't think he's funny?
Speaker 9 (01:34:48):
Well, I just want to see what he looks like.
Speaker 1 (01:34:50):
But you know what he Oh you mean really in
real life? I see no. Jerry Seinfeld has never been
one of my favorite comedians like comedy, but his approach
to the craft is unparalleled.
Speaker 9 (01:35:05):
He's iconic.
Speaker 1 (01:35:06):
He's super zen about everything, and he's just very very
pragmatic about everything, which seems counterintuitive to somebody who's in
a creative field. But he's he's like a surgeon. This guy,
h No, thank you no, she's trying to hug him.
Speaker 3 (01:35:22):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (01:35:22):
No, I mean his documentary Comedian from twenty plus years ago.
It's like it's required watching. So I love love Jerry
Seinfeld just for his technique and his perspective on the craft.
If nothing else, you go see him and you'll laugh
because it's genetically engineered to make you laugh. But when
(01:35:44):
people go he's corny, I fully understand what they mean.
He is kind of of a different uh generation, kind
of you know, there aren't a lot of twenty five
year olds at Jerry Seinfeld show, but he works these
sets to within a razor's edge. He knows it. Every
single one of those jokes works, and if they don't work,
(01:36:06):
he takes them out. It's not like they're his you know,
will make jokes so like my children, he's like, no,
if it doesn't work.
Speaker 3 (01:36:14):
You know.
Speaker 1 (01:36:14):
That's why the old joke about comedians want to be
rock stars and rock stars want to be comedians. I'm like,
rock stars do not want to be comedians because if
you're a comedian, you got to write new crap all
the time. If you're in a band, you can write
a handful of great songs and play them for the
next fifty years, so it's apples and oranges. Comedians have
to write new crap all the time. You can't go
(01:36:37):
out and just do your you know. That's why Seinfeld
years ago did that tour where he retired all of
his old material, like the airplane one. What's the deal
with airplanes? Airplane food? Oh? Yeah, Jess, yeah, Jess. And
you know what's the deal with tricycles? How many whales
(01:36:58):
are on them? Am I right?
Speaker 3 (01:37:00):
I mean?
Speaker 1 (01:37:00):
Is it three wheels of the wheel? Tricycle? Four?
Speaker 3 (01:37:06):
Yeah?
Speaker 1 (01:37:06):
I was answering a lot of email last night, many
hours after the show, as I'm going through my emails
and things of people who were flummixed by Jess's confusion
over tricycles.
Speaker 10 (01:37:17):
I did some deep thinking last night about the oh,
motorcycles only have two and then a four wheeler?
Speaker 9 (01:37:23):
Is that considered a quad?
Speaker 3 (01:37:25):
That is a quad?
Speaker 1 (01:37:26):
Okay, four four wheels?
Speaker 9 (01:37:29):
It been answer. My questions have been answered.
Speaker 1 (01:37:32):
She did some deep thinking about how many wheels are
on various vehicles. I'm still not sure where the confusion
came in, though, Like you're a twenty six year old woman.
When you were a child, I think you'd know what
a tricycle was, right, I had a bike, and how
many wheels were on that bike? Two?
Speaker 3 (01:37:51):
Okay?
Speaker 10 (01:37:51):
And then it only had one because I rode my
bike into a parked car.
Speaker 1 (01:37:58):
Okay.
Speaker 9 (01:37:59):
And then my little sister stole my bike after that
and she got hit by a car. She was fine.
Speaker 1 (01:38:03):
The bike wasn't one wheel. Now did you think that
that was Did you take that as what people call karma?
Her getting hit after she stole your bike? You no, that,
I mean, I just didn't have a bike at the end. Yeah,
she was very pragmatic about it.
Speaker 3 (01:38:22):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (01:38:22):
I didn't really wish her any old will I just
at the end of the story, I didn't have a bike.
Speaker 9 (01:38:27):
Yeah, she was fine, the bike was not.
Speaker 1 (01:38:28):
I mean, the bitch stole my bike. Yeah, I'm just
saying these two things equal.
Speaker 3 (01:38:32):
I don't know.
Speaker 1 (01:38:33):
Maybe you steal bad things may happen to you. I mean,
I happened to you. May happen to you.
Speaker 10 (01:38:41):
Then I found out it was my bike, I was like, Mmm,
can't have anything that's right.
Speaker 1 (01:38:46):
We can't have nice things. We can things. No, Alan,
I've got Michael J. Fox and Bruce Willis in my
celebrity death pool. But again, these are people who are
all I mean, Michael J. Fox has lived with his
condition for a long time. I mean that guy beat
most of the odds. Bruce Willis, Yeah, he'll probably go
in the next couple of years. Yeah, I don't know
what's going to be that quick though, honest. For Bruce Willis, yeah,
(01:39:08):
I mean, I mean, his wife does pretty regular updates
and it looks pretty aggressive.
Speaker 6 (01:39:12):
Right, But he's all it's doing is making his memory
go away. His physical body is still okay. It's the
same thing with with Parkinson's. That's why I wouldn't put
Michael Jackson, Michael J. Fox on the on the death
pool because he, like, Parkinson's isn't what kills you.
Speaker 1 (01:39:28):
My mother's husband just watched it. You get something that
takes you out. And Michael J. Fox, overly, for the
most part, is okay. With the exception of his Parkinson's.
It's infections of some sort, right, No, I know, and
I fully understand that. I'm just saying that you're saying
because Bruce Willis constantly has people around him, Like his
wife moved him into like an adjacent house so people
(01:39:50):
could so he would have care, correct, Ye, And I
think it's little kids, and the people can live for
a long time in that state.
Speaker 6 (01:39:57):
Yeah, he may not talk, he may not know who
anybody is, but he's being basically, he's being kept alive, right,
So I think people can live in that state for
quite some time.
Speaker 1 (01:40:08):
Do you think more people have Bruce Willis in their
celebrity death pool? Or do more people have die Hard
as not a Christmas movie? More people as not a
Christmas movie because it's not a Christmas movie. I mean,
it is. But what I'm asking fine, and it is
what I'm asking though, is do you think more people
have Do you think more people are of the erroneous
(01:40:28):
opinion that it's not a Christmas movie? It's not? So, Yes,
I do think that it is. So what I'm saying is,
I mean, since die Hard is a Christmas movie, you
think that all those people who don't think it is
the people who are demonstrably incorrect. You think that those
people outnumbered the people who have him in their celebrity.
Speaker 6 (01:40:46):
Well, I think the people that properly put it on
the not a Christmas movie list, I think that those
people do outnumber the people who think he will be
dead in twenty twenty.
Speaker 1 (01:40:55):
Six Yep, I'm going to beat the judge of this.
I'm going to watch die Hard you've not seen Nope, No, okay,
you should be. It's a great movie. It is a
fantastic me It's not a Christmas I mean, you don't
have to be the judge because the people who judged
correctly know that it's a Christmas movie. You don't have
to be there. I'm gonna take that pressure off your shoulders.
(01:41:16):
Sweet with the Christmas you will be because it's not
a Christmas movie.
Speaker 6 (01:41:21):
But anyway with it, Uh, with the exception of it
being at a Christmas party, what makes it a Christmas movie?
Speaker 1 (01:41:27):
I've got a real hot take for you. Home Alone
not a Christmas movie. Oh that's just ridiculous, dope. What
just because it's set at Christmas? Just because those guys
step on ornaments and what else happens around that they
celebrate Christmas in that movie. Nobody celebrates Christmas in that movie.
They lost their kid. No, they got back and celebrating
(01:41:48):
anything both one and two and with celebrating Christmas. Here's
your room service bill, sir, Right.
Speaker 11 (01:41:56):
Kevin.
Speaker 1 (01:41:59):
The tur Doves with the old hobo in the in
the in the park, never saw the second one. You
never saw the second movie. No, it's terrific. It's as
good as the first. I didn't like the first one.
You Gotta Go Get Home Alone is Boston, New York.
It is the one with Trump, right, yeah? Yeahs do
we love miners? I love miners? Oh yeah, he likes kids.
(01:42:26):
You shut your mouth about Diehard, Rob. There's a texture
I thought that was from you. No, should be Alan.
George Carlin did the same material for twenty years. He
very much did. Carlin wrote a new hour every year.
What are you talking about? All these whipper snaps now,
they're like, I do a new hour every year. George
Carlin was constantly touring new material. And the thing, well,
(01:42:48):
I think now he was less concerned with being actually
funny because he was just a cranky old get. But
I still loved him. But he absolutely did not do
the same material for twenty years. I think they might
be saying more the tone of his stuff, but years
ago every comedian has her own tone changed up a lot.
He did get grumpy at the end, though, boy he
(01:43:08):
sure did. And I still believe I killed him because
I had tickets to see him. Uh, And he died
I got tickets for my wife. Then my girlfriend got
me a tickets for my birthday to see George Carlin,
and he died the day before my birthday. I can't
believe you killed George Crown. Thank you, Rob, that's I mean,
thanks a lot. Why do you think I don't sleep
that well Jesus. To Rob's point, Gene Hackman would still
(01:43:31):
be alive if his wife hadn't died. See Chuck's point, Yeah, okay,
that's a good example, Alan, die Hard is not a
Christmas movie. If it is, so is the first Harry Potter.
The first Harry Potter took place around Christmas. Remember when
Harry Potter killed the terrorists. This is what I'm talking about, Alan,
(01:43:53):
tell Rob, there's an actual Santa hat in die Hard.
Ho ho ho, Now I have a machine gun. It's
a Christmas movie, all right?
Speaker 5 (01:44:05):
Not.
Speaker 1 (01:44:06):
Isn't funny though, that so many people argue over that,
whether or not, out of all the movies, whether or
not die Hard is a Christmas because die Hard too
is set at Christmas. Yeah, they went back to the well,
that's how much they go, guys. We have got a
Christmas mega hit on our hands, and much it came
out in June. You know, I do watch it every
(01:44:26):
year at Christmas, and I think that also helps define
what a Christmas movie is too, because they usually release
the Christmas Christmas side for you. John from Parma says,
Rob Huff my taint Die Hard is a Christmas movie.
I mean that's aggressive. No, that's really aggressive. Ze. I
(01:44:50):
mean we're just having a little disagreement over here. You're
entitled to have a bad opinion.
Speaker 4 (01:44:54):
You're and.
Speaker 1 (01:44:59):
Oh, hey, Trump, le's that about kids?
Speaker 11 (01:45:03):
Oh?
Speaker 1 (01:45:03):
You old criminal? Perv allan oldie timey Christmas is not
a Christmas song but a cautionary tale about domestic violence.
Well you could make the case for that too, But
Christmas is in the title of.
Speaker 3 (01:45:22):
The song.
Speaker 1 (01:45:23):
Is Better Off Dead a Christmas movie? Absolutely is? Okay?
Better Off Dead is a Lane maya Better Off Dead

Speaker 3 (01:47:33):
Yeah?
Speaker 1 (01:47:33):
I think it's the same dude. And the actress, the
female the girl played The French Girl is an actress
named Diane Franklin. She had been in a bunch of
eighties movies. I thought she was. She's still alive. I
think still does, like comic cons and stuff. She was
so I had such a crush on Diane Franklin. Oh
my god, Better Off Dead boobs in that that was?
Was there a better Off Dead? I think so?
Speaker 3 (01:47:51):
Right?
Speaker 1 (01:47:52):
I love that movie. Boy, what a great great movie. Yeah,
not for kids though, and movies not for kids? Do
we love miners?
Speaker 5 (01:48:00):

Speaker 2 (01:49:13):
Rob?
Speaker 3 (01:49:13):
Hi? So?
Speaker 14 (01:49:15):
Rob?
Speaker 3 (01:49:16):
Are you?
Speaker 7 (01:49:17):
Are you saying?
Speaker 1 (01:49:17):
As far as Diehard goes that it's primarily not a
Christmas movie because of the time of year that it
was put out in theaters?
Speaker 3 (01:49:24):
Is that the biggest No?
Speaker 6 (01:49:26):
No, I just don't think it's a Christmas movie. That's
just I mean, that's a part of it, sure, but
it's not the only reason.
Speaker 1 (01:49:31):
In December at a Christmas party.
Speaker 5 (01:49:35):
And a big no.
Speaker 1 (01:49:37):
I mean, do you do you say? Miracle on thirty
fourth Street came out in June two? So yeah, no,
that wasn't my point. No, I mean I don't think
it really. I was just mentioning that as an aside.
I don't think it really matters when a movie is released.
I mean a lot of times that's just got to
do with scheduling with the studio, you know, just not
Christmas enough Rob, No, no, I mean, this is not
for me, but I understand why people like it. And
(01:49:58):
if if it's one that you did, I hope that
you watch it ten times this holiday and love it
every time you watch it. I will nine nine. All right,
thank you, Vinnie. I appreciate you'll go watch it six
or seven times if you wants. Sick says I got
a long, long email from Aaron in Akron. Why die
(01:50:23):
Hard is a Christmas movie? Rob? Is what it says.
I don't know that it warrants me reading the whole thing.
So let me see if I can paraphrase on the spot.
This reads, By the way, this is not the first
time he's sent this. This reads like a screed that
he has had in his archive for a minute and
(01:50:44):
he just copy and paste and sent to his credit.
By the way, it is exhaustively reasoned and researched.
Speaker 6 (01:50:52):
And you know what, maybe I'm wrong. Maybe that's the
email I need to change my mind. I'm not going
to read it, but maybe that's the email I need
to check. You don't have to, I'll read it for you.
Oh good, die Hard is a Christmas movie? Open strong?
Speaker 1 (01:51:08):
Without Christmas, die Hard can't happen. He's only in LA
to reunite with family for Christmas, a Christmas theme in itself,
and he literally saves Christmas. Die Hard has more Christmas songs,
images and references than It's a wonderful life. It could
be any time George Bailey yelling Happy New Year, Thanksgiving
(01:51:30):
or Independence Day. Doesn't George Bailey run through and say
Merry Christmas? Were Christmas?
Speaker 13 (01:51:36):
Bright?
Speaker 1 (01:51:39):
Let's see here it don McLean is alone and protecting hostages.
He's only in LA because it's Christmas. When you said
that if you remove Christmas, he's not there to save them,
McClain doesn't have Yeah, well McClain doesn't have to state
that he's trying to reunite for Christmas because no one
gets on a flight during one of the busiest Okay,
(01:51:59):
well he's and really nerdy with this.
Speaker 5 (01:52:01):
But but.
Speaker 1 (01:52:05):
McLean said that Holly had been in LA for about
six months, so nothing but Christmas is getting him. Okay, well,
he's convincing me that it's not rob This letter is
having the oppposite effect on you. I didn't see that
one coming. Christmas isn't merely decorative, Aaron says the Christmas
(01:52:27):
sounds aren't back dropped to his environment. Yeah, you know
how that you have that Let It Snow is over
the closing credits. You know how you have that reaction
when someone tells you not to do something.
Speaker 6 (01:52:39):
Yes, I've never felt stronger about this not being a
Christmas movie than I do right now.
Speaker 1 (01:52:44):
Like I Aaron had the unintended consequence of me going
over to Rob's side. You know what, You're right, it's
not a Christmas movie.
Speaker 5 (01:52:55):
Uh.
Speaker 1 (01:52:55):
They play let it Snow over the credits. John and
Argyle wish each other. A Mary Smiths jingle bells is
being whistled by someone. As McLean walks toward the elevator.
There's the Santa hat. Yeah, I have a machine gun.
Speaker 3 (01:53:09):
Ho ho ho.
Speaker 1 (01:53:12):
Yeah again. I love the movie. I watch it every
single year. I just don't believe that it's a Christmas film,
that's all. I wouldn't put it in the Christmas If
I were building my own Blockbuster video in twenty twenty five,
I would not put it in the Christmas movie section.
Speaker 6 (01:53:29):
I would put it in the best Movies I've Ever
seen section because I love it. I just don't think
it's a Christmas movie.
Speaker 1 (01:53:35):
So you're thinking on it is a movie you would
have to be unequivocally about Christmas. I just think it
was the movie Home for the Holidays about Christmas. I
have not which one is that. I think that's the
one with Holly Hunter. I don't even know what that
is one. I don't know what that is. I was
thinking it was the one.
Speaker 6 (01:53:55):
What's the one with who's that Tim Allen Smith's with
the Cranks. I mean that, that's what I was thinking.
He meant, I don't know, man.
Speaker 1 (01:54:07):
I was clicking around. I couldn't sleep, and I was
clicking around in my hotel room in Michigan, and Christmas
with the Cranks was on, and I'd heard of it,
but I had never seen it. I know it is
Tim Allen strike one. What's her name, Jamie Lee Curtis,
Jamie Curtis, and they it's one of those movies where
(01:54:27):
they put her in like a mousey brown wig yep,
so she looks like a mom. You want to talk
about a friggin chameleon, man, Jamie Lee Curtis. I didn't
see that movie. Everything everywhere all at once. But she
won an oscar or somebody won an oscar for it.
But they it's another movie where they put her in
like this mousey brown like page boy mom haircut or whatever.
(01:54:48):
It immediately changes her look. And then you see her
in real life or like Freaky Friday or something, and
she's got the the white pixie cut hair, you know,
like her walking around hair. But don't they put her
in a bikini in that movie too, Like in Christmas
with the Cranks, they like they should, Like there's a
I didn't see all of it, you might be right,
but like dan Ackroid's in it, and yeah, it's a
(01:55:10):
it's a fine movie. I didn't see the whole thing
I had, but I was like, I get what they're doing. Yeah,
it's a stupid Christmas movie. It's it's it's fine. They're
not going to be there for Christmas because they're kids
away at college and not coming home. Hooray. The neighbors
get mad and then they're like, screw all these neighbors.
But then the daughter decides to come home. I don't
mean to give you a spoiler alert here, but then
(01:55:31):
the whole neighborhood has to come together and put a
Christmas together for the kids and put their arguments. But
one of the kids in the movie you want to
feel old. One of the kids in the movie was
the little kid in Malcolm in the Middle. Oh really,
and that kid is thirty four years old now, yeah,
but Christmas with the Cranks are twenty years ago, so
he was still a little kid.
Speaker 11 (01:55:52):
Hear this?
Speaker 3 (01:55:52):
This is me?
Speaker 1 (01:55:54):
Oh is that for fat? That means it is it
is four fifty nine, which means in one minute's time. Yeah,
we have something we have to do. Oh all right,
I don't have to wait.
Speaker 7 (01:56:05):
Ber bag bang bang bang, binger bang bang.
Speaker 13 (01:56:09):
Binger bag bang bang bang, finger bang bang, binger bag
bang bang bang, binger bang bang finger bag bang bang
(01:56:31):
finger bag bang.
Speaker 1 (01:56:33):
Boy, he's a.
Speaker 13 (01:56:34):
Bang bang binger bag bang bang bang.
Speaker 1 (01:56:38):
Once he gets his teeth into something, boy, he doesn't
want to let go. So he's in a one track mine.
That guy. Yeah, I like this. It's not really connected.
But did you see the Bjeon Robinson clips. No, everybody's
flipping out about this guy b Jeon Robinson. The uh
the Bucks basically uh gave it away to the Atlanta
Falcons last night Thursday Night Football. Falcons were down twenty
(01:57:00):
eight to fourteen in the fourth quarter, and somehow Tampa
Bay let him come back. So the Falcons end up
winning by one, and they were talking to Bijon Robinson.
He has since apologized and they were asking him. They
had him on TV talking after you know, they's sitting
(01:57:23):
there with the panel, whoever the guys are that do
Thursday Night Football audio qualities not awesome on this, but
you might hear it. Hear the queer is what he said. Yeah,
he's like, oh, we used to play in the backyard.
We used to play smear the queer. That's definitely what
(01:57:44):
it was called. And he had to apologize because you know,
that's problematic now that he grew up running around in
the backyard. Richard Sherman there, your former We've talked about
him before. He's one of the analysts there on the
Thursday Night Football nightcap show. Thursday Night Football is on
Amazon now. And he said, we used to grow up
(01:58:07):
playing smear the queer. Now apparently now it's called I
haven't even heard this game referra. This is when everybody
would just hogpile on a guy right right, the guy
with the ball. You do whatever you had to do.
Apparently it's you're supposed to call it kill the carrier,
which is terrible. That is the wark, kill the carrier.
Speaker 6 (01:58:30):
Crush the carrier, go with the sea at least kay,
and then Cey, what are they doing?
Speaker 1 (01:58:35):
I don't like that at all. So he is apologizing
and he's like, hey, I really didn't mean to offend
anybody who was in the moment.
Speaker 3 (01:58:43):
Whatever.
Speaker 1 (01:58:44):
I don't think i've heard anybody refer to that game
in a long time smear the queer, although I imagine
that in Massachusetts and Rhode Island it was probably a
little different.
Speaker 6 (01:58:54):
Yeah, I think they were saying that when I left.
I mean that was a couple of years ago. I
think that would still people be like, oh, let's go
outside and play some football. Quah.
Speaker 1 (01:59:04):
I'll I don't know that we now. Again, I did
not grow up doing stuff like that. I didn't grow
up with all of like the neighborhood kids coming around
and playing this. So I don't even think I knew
that's what it was called until many years later when
friends of mine were like, oh, we used to play that,
(01:59:26):
and I was like, I don't know what that is. Yeah,
and they explained it and I understood what they were
talking about, but I was like, wow, I don't know,
but I haven't heard anybody refer to that in a
long time, especially since Bjon Robinson is not like an
old guy. Yeah, so that's clearly grandfather that clearly has
not like gone away or he's twenty three years old.
(01:59:52):
So it's probably I would imagine it's probably still used
on football fields and things like that, you know what
I mean, Like in big you play in the NFL,
you went to huge collegiate programs, and it's probably still done.
But do you think, Okay, but do you think because
if you associate it with like my childhood, yeah right,
I was a kid like the early eighties. Yeah, this
(02:00:16):
guy was born in two thousand and two, right, So
who is still using like I think football coaches I
think Okay, the coaches are college I think I think
those do.
Speaker 6 (02:00:26):
I mean, it's probably even going back to like Pop
Warner football. I think they're probably like, hey, we're going
to play a game. It's it's at the toward the
end of practice, when everybody's all beat and they decide
at the end, let's just go for a bang them
up session.
Speaker 1 (02:00:38):
But whether or not you think things like this are
too politically correct or whatever, there is language that has
been updated and kind of gradually has worked its way
out the pop culture. I'm saying it's good. I'm just
saying that.
Speaker 16 (02:00:52):
Why.
Speaker 1 (02:00:52):
I don't even mean that. I just mean, like, I'm
surprised that something like that would still be hanging on
in collegiate programs, or that even a coach would say that.
I see, I don't.
Speaker 6 (02:01:02):
I think I think, dude, I think that locker room
stuff is way less police than people think it is.
I think people say what they want to say when
they feel comfortable. I think you're in your comfort zone,
you're in a locker room, you're on a football field,
you're going to say that because in their minds, that's
what that's called.
Speaker 1 (02:01:21):
Or maybe they had like older siblings or something.
Speaker 6 (02:01:23):
And yeah, me and my brothers used to beat the
piss out of each other in the backyard with this game.
Speaker 1 (02:01:28):
We'd throw the ball down, guy, pick it up, and
get crushed. Yeah. I guess I'm just thinking along the
terms of like, like, generationally, you kind of have your
own language and your own words, and I guess I'm
curious why this would have held on for a dude
who's twenty three years old. But maybe it's coaches.
Speaker 6 (02:01:46):
Or the way it sounds, I think it's probably just
something that has just been there. I guess it's the
only thing I could think of, the only reason that
that would still be around in twenty twenty five.
Speaker 3 (02:01:57):
I mean, think of.
Speaker 1 (02:01:59):
But this is what I'm saying. I literally haven't heard
that phrase or that game referred to by that in
I couldn't tell you how long. So when it popped up,
my reaction was like, oh, wow, Like I get why
people are like upset. Obviously they kind of there's a
knee jerk reaction to something like that. But I was like, wow,
I haven't heard anybody even use that phrase to describe
(02:02:21):
that in forever.
Speaker 6 (02:02:22):
And this is a young dude, and he uses it
in a very matter of fact way. It's not again.
You could tell he's not trying to be rude or malicious.
Speaker 1 (02:02:31):
He just says it. It just comes out.
Speaker 6 (02:02:34):
You think of the stuff that everybody said for so long,
you know what I mean. It's probably just again. I
just don't think that that ever disappeared from the football field.
As my guest clearly not. Eric said, I'm fifty. We
used to call it Fumbolina. What's the other one, Uh, Fumbolina?
Or oh god, oh the Crisco kid. But even that,
it's like an old you know, if you couldn't hang.
Speaker 1 (02:02:55):
Onto the ball? Yeah, look at the Crisco kid. But
even that, that's an even older reference to this kid. Yeah,
it's the same Shawn in Bedford, we used to call
it kill the guy with the ball. Hey, let's buy
some KGB guys, same story. Yeah, the end result is
the same. Yeah, that's pretty wild. So b Jeon Robinson,
(02:03:18):
a guy I had never heard of until this whole thing.
Broke is apologizing to people. Hey, sorry, yeah, I mean,
what else you're gonna say? Yeah, Allen Leethal Weapon is
a Christmas movie. Jesus God, they're selling Christmas trees. It's
the second scene of the film. They're playing jingle Bell rock. Okay,
Diehard is literally listed in the Christmas movie section of Hulu.
(02:03:40):
I have seen that because of this argument, because half
of you morons think it's a Christmas movie. Wmms rob
if you want to vehemently agree with him, Look, I
don't care what it's categorized as. It doesn't matter. It's
a great movie. Watch it whenever you want. I watch
(02:04:01):
it every single Christmas.
Speaker 9 (02:04:02):
Yeah, why do you watch it every single Christmas if
it's not a Christmas.
Speaker 1 (02:04:05):
Movie because of this debate, and it reminds me how
much I enjoy this film it is. It's kind of
a reminder. You go, oh right, Diehard. I haven't seen Diehart.
I have not watched die Hard since last year. So
I'm going to now sit down and watch Diehard. I'll
give you my hot take. I really like die Hard
with a Vengeance. I thought that was great. Sam Jackson,
Jeremy Irons, Yeah, yeah, I love that movie. I didn't
think any of them sucked. What was the one with
(02:04:27):
Justin Long by the Time you get to Live Free
or die Hard where Timothy Elephant's a bad guy but
it was like a hacker? Is it Kevin Smith is
in it? Right? Remember famously Kevin Smith said like Bruce
Willis was a giant prick to him.
Speaker 5 (02:04:37):
You know?
Speaker 1 (02:04:37):
Is that the one with Kevin Justin Long? I think, so, okay,
Live Free or die Hard that has a killer That
helicopter seen in that movie's awesome. Yeah, the helicopter goes
into the tunnel. They and I love Timothy Elephant too.
I would watch that guy do anything. But they did
go to the well, I think one too many times.
Mary Elizabeth Winstead did play mcclan's grown up daughter, Lucy McClain. Idea,
(02:05:01):
she is foxy. But yeah, I think they went one
too many times so that we I would live for
your Diehard. But again, if they're giving you, you know,
I think it was still a hit. It cost one
hundred and ten million dollars. It made almost four hundred,
so people are like, yeah, new die Hard movie. And
(02:05:21):
then they did a Good Day to die Hard. They
did a bunch of them with Sam Worthington yep. So
they just kept I don't know if that's even the
last one. And I never saw that one. I didn't
he's like in Russia or something. I didn't see that,
like a dude plays his son, Like okay, But I.
Speaker 6 (02:05:45):
Just got a text that I'm I am looking into
right now and I'm praying to God this is true.
I'm so if I'm not responding to you for a second,
I'm just doing a little research, okay.
Speaker 1 (02:05:57):
The fifth Diehard movie was originally called Diehard twenty four
to seven, and they were going to make it a
crossover between die Hard and twenty four with Keiper Sutherland
playing Jack Bauer. Now I've never watched that show, but
there were probably a lot of people really excited at
the prospect of that they're going to do a John
McClain Jack Bauer movie. But A Good Day to die
(02:06:20):
Hard was twenty thirteen and that was the last movie
in that franchise. So I was along for the first
three and then but they all made money. They were
all hits.
Speaker 9 (02:06:30):
There's five Diehard movie.
Speaker 1 (02:06:31):
Yeah, critics were like, this stinks, but they people went
to go see them because it would pinks. It's stinks.
John love it. They put him in Imax, and so
people go see them because you're like, yeah, it's Imax.
Stuff's blowing up. Like I understand. But I bailed after
that third one because I was like, I don't I'm fine.
Speaker 9 (02:06:48):
Is that only the first one that's considered a Christmas movie?
Speaker 6 (02:06:51):
Even though the second one does discuss Christmas? Apparently they
do say the first one really because the Erlen Carr Show.
Speaker 2 (02:06:58):
On one hundred points, of course, he stays.
Speaker 5 (02:07:05):
Calm when someone steals his stuff.
Speaker 1 (02:07:07):
From the company fridge.
Speaker 2 (02:07:09):
He needs that energy for when he pops in their
gas tank. Alan Cox on seven w MMS.
Speaker 1 (02:08:01):
You Yes, you can this is my perfect transition while
I'm keeping Dick from dating on.
Speaker 11 (02:08:22):
Hold.
Speaker 1 (02:08:29):
Hey Dick, Hey, what's all buddy? What's going on?
Speaker 3 (02:08:33):
Dick?
Speaker 11 (02:08:33):
How are you? Oh?
Speaker 7 (02:08:34):
I'm good.
Speaker 3 (02:08:35):
I just uh.
Speaker 7 (02:08:36):
I had about three performances this week on the Christmas
Sunday Jo yeah good, it was good good and uh yeah,
we have one down here and then I have to
play tomorrow. But I find it interesting on the the
uh Tor and Luca Lightleys, the song sound pretty good.
(02:08:59):
At Christmas, we had a standing room only over at
Bethany to day and then I played here and it's uh,
it was a jolly time. Everybody had fun. We had
egg nog and cookies and all you wanted. It's uh
enjoyed good time. But Tidians are great joy guys.
Speaker 1 (02:09:17):
Do you ever go do you ever go heavy on
the nog or do you keep it heavy on the egg? No?
Speaker 7 (02:09:22):
No, I just coffee in the dog they on.
Speaker 1 (02:09:26):
Yeah, a little little nutmeg and there making cookies.
Speaker 7 (02:09:28):
I'd take too many cookies.
Speaker 1 (02:09:30):
Though, no such thing as too many cookies, Dick, Dick.
When you guys are out there on the yuk, are
you doing melee khaliki maka or anything like that?
Speaker 7 (02:09:38):
Yeah, we Yeah, in fact, we did that. Yeah, yeah,
the Hawaiian song there was it was was it last
Monday Night and the banjo group got together for a
long time. Yeah that that was a pretty and then uh,
I think we do blue Hawaiian. It's pretty, but uh yeah,
I like rocking around the Christmas Tree.
Speaker 1 (02:10:00):
I want to play the bing Crosby version, Dick. Would
you guys play though? When you do Mamka? Do you
the Chris Isaac version? Do you do the bing Crosby version,
or do you do the James Buffett version? Yeah, Jesus Christ,
this is the one that I'm talking about. You mean
the guy that's in the picture of the Epstein files,
(02:10:21):
that Jimmy Jimmy Buffet, Jimmy Buffett in those Epstein Island pictures,
Dick boy. Yeah right, that'll put some shine in your saddle.
Speaker 7 (02:10:32):
Oh yeah, you had a lot of snow up there.
Speaker 1 (02:10:34):
Oh yeah, we're having it as we speak. Yeah, lots
of snow and snowing every.
Speaker 7 (02:10:39):
Day every day.
Speaker 1 (02:10:41):
How do you guys get to work slays? Yeah, a
series of slaves. I've got levers and pulleys and I've
got a Yeah, I've got a pack of dogs. That
I keep fed in my shed and you mean to rhyme,
but sometimes it just works out that way. No, I
take we take motorized vehicles to just like everybody else,
you know, do you.
Speaker 7 (02:11:04):
Well, you know what I'm thinking. Sunday another loss for
the Browns, right, another loss?
Speaker 1 (02:11:09):
I mean I think that's I think that's the same
bet if there's a Sunday and they're playing, I think
that's a safe bet. Yeah.
Speaker 7 (02:11:17):
Yeah, well yeah, I was a little disappointed in Ohio State.
But I think they'll come back, though, I really do.
Speaker 1 (02:11:25):
You think they'll win the Natty? Maybe maybe day that's
a that's a hot take. Maybe they might win, they
might lose. Rob, I think he's covered little Cya from
DFD there. Okay, thank you, Dick.
Speaker 7 (02:11:41):
Yeah, you're welcome.
Speaker 1 (02:11:42):
To have a great day, boy. I hate to bring
it up again, Rob. You know, we were just talking
to Dick from Dayton about Jimmy Buffett. Yeah, and Melicaliki Maka.
You know, they just dropped these nineteen photos from the
Epstein files, and it's the usual suspects. Most people like
(02:12:05):
to focus on Trump because Trump was his best friend.
There's Trump branded condoms in one of the pictures, and
of course they have to black out all of the
young girl's faces that are flanking Trump Bill Clinton. People
knew this and no new information. Woody Allen, again, you're
(02:12:26):
in cream company already, Bill Gates. Rich people hang out together, right,
And they're very quick to point out that the photos
obviously are not evidence of wrongdoing, just because he did
a lot of parties with a lot of different people.
Obviously Trump is a creep, right, he was there for
one thing and one thing only. He's a convicted sex assaulter.
(02:12:51):
Jeffrey Epstein. Steve Bannon is in one of the photos,
but I think people were most surprised rob to see
Jimmy Buffett flanking former President Bill Clinton and bookend Jimmy
Buffet at one end, Epstein and Gallaine Maxwell on the other,
and it's signed Bill Clinton. Yeah, so listen, Jimmy Buffett's dead.
(02:13:16):
Can you imagine if he were alive and having to
answer for this, they would be saying, the Hell's going
on here? I always think about the people who are
not easily identifiable as celebrities who are in the background
of these photos, Like, what if you just knew somebody
and you're like Jesus Christ. Is that Mark in the back?
What Mark doing there? Mark, Mark, Prince Andrew you know again,
(02:13:42):
a rogues gallery of creeps from Trump to Epstein to
everybody else but Jimmy Buffett.
Speaker 13 (02:13:48):
Rob.
Speaker 1 (02:13:49):
Yeah, that can't make you feel good, even as a
guy who doesn't like Jimmy Buffett.
Speaker 3 (02:13:54):
No, I don't.
Speaker 1 (02:13:55):
I just I'm of the belief that And I don't
understand where this gets political with people. If you are
on the list and you were doing horrible, awful things,
you should not be exempt from everyone knowing and you
being an enormous scumback you should it should be everywhere.
(02:14:18):
You should be persecuted, all of this all it's not political.
If it's Trump, if it's Clinton, if it's whomever. If
it should be Buffett, great, I mean he's already dead,
so great, But they should all be like, if that's
what you were doing with your time, and they were
all willing participants, take them all out, kill them all.
How do I care? They thought his name was Buffet,
(02:14:38):
That's why they invited him. They did spell it that way.
Buffet of young ladies that were there. Yeah, just I mean, I.
Speaker 6 (02:14:44):
Don't Pictures again, pictures don't show guilt. But all of
these guys knew what was going on clearly, right, Bill
Clinton a hound for years. So what do we want here?
Speaker 1 (02:15:00):
Well, because the people that you can pretty you can
you can probably easily separate because people have made the point, well,
rich people all hang out together. And Bill Gates was
meeting with this guy because he was constantly trying to
get money from him. He was trying to get him
to fund his philanthropic efforts and things like that. Sure,
I don't know that Bill Gates has ever been credibly
accused of doing anything with any of those girls. The
(02:15:22):
people who have been credibly accused Bill Clinton, Prince Andrew
Donald Trump. It's because in every other area of their
lives they were poon hounds, yes, with young girls. And
you know, these guys are on videotape, they're on audio tape,
they're on whatever. Guys you know, listen, would he all
and everybody can chuckle because he you know, married his
stepdaughter or whatever it was. But a guy like Jimmy Buffett,
(02:15:44):
a guy like Bill Gates, and you never know, you don't,
You just don't.
Speaker 6 (02:15:50):
And at the end of the day, it's like I
said when I started pictures don't suggest guilt.
Speaker 1 (02:15:55):
They're pictures. And to your point, rich people hang out together, right,
So Jimmy Buffett may have known nothing about Epstein and
his crew of scumbags and he just happened to be there.
It's like all of the celebrities over the years that
were in Ditty pictures right right, they're all puckering down
below because they're like, oh my god, this guy. You know,
(02:16:15):
when that story breaks, he was throwing white parties every
year with hundreds and hundreds of celebrities. So there were
a lot of people. You know, it was a calling card,
it was a status thing if you were invited to
one of Ditty's parties. It doesn't mean, obviously that every
single one of those people is doing something awful. The
people that you know in the Epstein case, people that
you know are doing awful things, are people who are
(02:16:36):
known for doing awful things. Donald Trump, you know, the
guy who doesn't have a redeemable cell in his body,
and he's, oh, Jeffrey Epstey was my great friend, my
best friend, and all this stuff, and then all of
a sudden he has no clue who he is. And
you know, that's all par for the course. But Jimmy
Buffett in one of the photos. Yeah, I mean, but
I don't see people like I didn't see in the
(02:16:57):
write ups on these, nobody mentioned and Jimmy Buffett, and
so I was like, I wonder why that is.
Speaker 6 (02:17:04):
I think it's the same reason you're not seeing a
lot of stuff with Bill Gates at that same point, right,
Like people are in a photograph. There's nothing necessarily pointing
at guilt in a photograph. But there are others who
and if everything comes out that way and they were
doing bad things, then again, those people should be persecuted
(02:17:25):
for it. It shouldn't be. It's not a political issue.
I don't understand why people keep bringing this up.
Speaker 1 (02:17:31):
Photograph. Melina Gates cited Bill Gates and Jeffrey Epstein's personal
relationship as a main factor for their divorce. Yeah. I mean,
those stories had been percolating for a while. So even
if you're there with your handout trying to get the
guide legitimately to contribute money to one of your causes,
I can't imagine your wife is real happy about it. No,
(02:17:52):
And if that's the case, if it comes out that
he did something wrong, take care of it. That's it.
No one can be exempt or should be exempt from
it if they were involved. Period. Well, I really wish
I had asked Dick if he thought die Hard was
a Christmas movie. Well, I gotta tell you maybe, you know,
I'm not too sure it might be. It's a good point, Alan,
you know, let me think, how about them calves. If
(02:18:15):
you find a fence, that guy will sit on it. Boy,
a lot of people, by the way, cotton Balls included
hoping Dick is not on anyone's celebrity deathpool list. No,
you know, I've gotten a couple of emails from people
who you can't listen. I understand you can't listen to
every second of this program. I don't even do that,
(02:18:37):
but they're like, hey, is Dick okay. I'm like, yeah,
he's called us a couple of times. And now we
know since this particular person's email said he's fine, he
just called He's doing fine. Now he does seem to
be leaning heavily on the eggnog. I hope that he
doesn't have to develop a problem this late in life.
Rob Aaron wrote me back. Of course I had that
(02:18:57):
die Hard explanation on hand, because a Hard like Rob
every year that I have to explain it to add length.
Speaker 6 (02:19:04):
Yeah, it sounds like you're changing people's minds by the
thousands hard on beauty.
Speaker 1 (02:19:11):
Yeah, you're not changing anybody's mind Maybe he is. I
wonder I wonder who the first two people to argue
about whether or not Die Hard as a Christmas movie
were the first two people? Right, every argument starts with
two people, And I wonder who the first people were.
(02:19:32):
You think it's a couple of dudes getting high. You know,
this is my favorite Christmas movie bit. July fifteenth, nineteen
eighty eight is when die Hard won dropped. See I'm
a nerd. So back in the day when everybody else
had pictures of hot chicks and cars and beer on
the wall of their dorm room, I had movie posters
(02:19:54):
and the very first one I ever had was die Hard.
It was it was uh Willison profile, it was Naco
Toomy Plaza. I mean, there were different versions of it.
One of them had him holding the gun. It was,
you know, different versions of it. But Alan Rickman, the villain,
the late great Alan Rickman, and the dad from Family Matters.
(02:20:21):
He was the cop Al Powell, Reginald Bell Johnson. He
was the dad from family matters, and yeah, but two guys,
maybe two people might have been a guy and his
girlfriend arguing, you know, about something else entirely different something
you know, argue. You know how arguments in relationships will
(02:20:44):
devolve into other things, right, people will just throw everything.
It's like Casey Kasem, he's yelling about the dog and
he goes and where were those pictures I was supposed
to see? Things have nothing to do the Germaine at all.
To the main argument. I envisioned it happening like that,
a guy and his girlfriend, or a guy and his boyfriend,
or a girl and her girlfriend take a pick or arguing,
(02:21:05):
and it turns into you know, they go from the
goddamn dishwasher is never emptied, and we have that little
sign you switch it to dirty or you switch it
to clean. Just some mundane argument and they go and
you're watching die Hard all the time. It's my favorite
Christmas movie. It's not a Christmas movie, you a whole
(02:21:26):
That's how I envision the very first argument.
Speaker 6 (02:21:30):
It's probably those two guys that argued over the Wicked
Witch of the West. That's probably the first real version
of it. And who are those people?
Speaker 1 (02:21:38):
You never saw that video. No Oh, a guy loses
his mind screaming at another dude about the wicked Witch
of the West and explaining the movie to the guy. Oh,
it's a couple of college bros. Just it's a silly
movie or clip. It's pretty good, is it's it's I mean,
it's probably not clean either, so I wouldn't. Probably not.
(02:21:59):
Somebody put out a list of Christmas carols from hell.
You know, we played Linda Bennett's Daddy's Home for Christmas
where that it gets interrupted by the news report of
the bus crash and they're not sure if Dad's dead,
and there are a lot of you ever see Wing?
Have you ever seen Wing? This is that older woman
in Hong Kong who sings you know. The hook here
(02:22:19):
is that she sings these songs in heavily broken English.
But I guess that in and of itself makes them entertaining.
And she does Silent Night and the Night Night. I
(02:22:40):
Alma was wondering if people are putting us on with
these half the time, I think that they might be.
You were talking about William Hung not long ago. Remember
he came up in conversation. Yeah, William Hung had Hung
for the holidays that is fantastic. It's a perfect name
for a Christmas album. Do you want to hear him do?
(02:23:03):
Stupid question? I was gonna say, do you want to
hear him do a little drummer boy? As I was
saying it, I'm thinking to myself, Alan, you moron should
say again?
Speaker 6 (02:23:13):
Of course I listened to that on repeating the car,
so I'm it'll be the second or third time I
hear that today.
Speaker 1 (02:23:30):
On You Boy Toy. I mean, there's not a lot
of heavy lifting in that song, so there's really nothing
for him to screw up. Did he do deck the
Halls ball? He says, Holly Rob and he says, la
(02:23:51):
La La La, Johnny, damn it all? Okay, little pitchy dog,
little bit? Don we know our gay apparel? He didn't
change it, he didn't try to update it, He didn't
(02:24:11):
try to make it his own. How about something from
the Shatner Clause album Bill Shatner early nineties, still doing it.
Speaker 2 (02:24:22):
And join the.
Speaker 1 (02:24:26):
William William Hung. I was like, oh my god, Shatner
sounds exactly like William Hung. Lashy through the snow of
a wonderful Spen sleigh or the fields we call laughing
all the way bell bull mate. I want this guy
to sing. I'm tired of this talk singing.
Speaker 3 (02:24:47):
What are you in?
Speaker 1 (02:24:47):
Cake? The guy never sings, He just talks over music.
I never noticed that before. Come on, you can't sing,
don't front a band. Reluctantly crouch, reluctantly crouched. I get it,
you're too cool to sing. Take that dumb hat off
(02:25:08):
The Allen.
Speaker 2 (02:25:09):
Cox Show on one hundreds. Call the Allen Cox Show.
Speaker 1 (02:25:16):
Where's the best place in America to meet single girls
and guys?
Speaker 5 (02:25:19):
Two one six five seven eight one double oh seven
or one eight eight one double o seven.
Speaker 1 (02:25:40):
Three five two Send me a text. Cavalier's basketball tonight
after having the week off for the NBA Cup games,
even though they were not participating in them, they are
back tonight in DC to play the Wizards, who are
one of the two worst teams in basketball. So we'll
see how that shakes out tonight in DC seven o'clock
(02:26:01):
tip off, six thirty pre game, not far off to
get you into CALVS coverage. And then they will play
the Charlotte Hornets on Sunday and then back to back
games against the Bulls Wednesday night in Chicago. Friday night
here the Rock at a Riddle, and Monday and Tuesday
of next week our last two live shows of twenty
(02:26:21):
twenty five, and then we will repair to our respective
layers for the remainder of the year. What will you do, Jess,
How will you be filling your days? I know you work,
That's all I'll be doing. All you'll be doing is
working and stack and cheddar get in your paper.
Speaker 10 (02:26:41):
Stirring it away for the winter, and then whatever time
I can with my baby. Yeah, we're gonna do crafts, are.
Speaker 1 (02:26:49):
You what kind of craft how? How aware is he
of his surroundings and how engaged is he? Five months?
I can't really cast my mind back. I'll be six
months next week, okay?
Speaker 10 (02:27:01):
And then no, I mean he really he's aware of
a lot, like he knows what's going on, he knows
who people are, like certain people, and he likes he
loves people.
Speaker 1 (02:27:10):
He's always happy. When is his birthday? June seventeenth? You
mean December seventeenth his birthday? I thought you said he'd
be six months next week. Oh, I'm sorry, six months.
I was thinking, Yeah, you're right, I'm sorry. June seventeenth, gotcha.
Speaker 10 (02:27:23):
Oh, we're gonna do finger painting. Oh well, I'm gonna
attempt it. I try to do it, like would make
ghosts out of his feet. Yes, he hated that. Ghosts
out of his feet. Yeah, Like I tried to paint
his foot white and then yeah, I can't imagine why
he wouldn't like that. So what I had to do
is I put a bunch of papers all over my
kitchen floor, and then I painted his foot and then
(02:27:46):
I would hold him yeah, over and over again. I
got one good foot out of like twenty five papers.
Speaker 1 (02:27:53):
You know, we did that to our dog before we
had her put to sleep, and she had obviously no
clue what.
Speaker 3 (02:27:58):
Was going on.
Speaker 1 (02:27:59):
My wife had bought pads, and so we got her feet.
We did some We bought these little like high stock
paper cards, and we did like some nose prints, and
you know, it is more difficult than you would expect
to get a dog's nose print in ink. She had
no idea what was going on.
Speaker 6 (02:28:18):
So you're saying that now, but maybe she was like,
all right, Dad's out in the backyard digging a hole,
Mom's over here putting stuff on my feet in myself.
Speaker 1 (02:28:27):
The hell's going on here? This can't come soon? Enough
the which she was thinking this is this is starting
to kind of seem like, I'm not gonna wait a minute,
who's the lady with the suicide machine? What the hell
is this? Poor puppy? Yeah, it sucks. Well, then will
you go back to that well Jess with the feet painting?
(02:28:49):
Or no?
Speaker 10 (02:28:50):
I think we're gonna try it again. I mean, he's
a little older now, and you might just got you
might have just gotten him on a bad day.
Speaker 9 (02:28:55):
I mean he was sleeping the first time I did it.
Speaker 1 (02:28:57):
And it still didn't work.
Speaker 9 (02:28:58):
I thought it was going to be easy.
Speaker 1 (02:29:00):
You woke him up, no wonder he didn't like it.
Speaker 9 (02:29:01):
Oh yeah, he was not happy.
Speaker 1 (02:29:03):
He woke right up from a deep sleep and into
you walking him around like a like a marionette with
ink on his feet like he's Pinocchio.
Speaker 10 (02:29:13):
All right, well, yeah, I mean he'll probably try to
eat it this time if I put on his fingers,
So we're gonna be very careful.
Speaker 1 (02:29:18):
About it, all right, shure it out fifty five and
write that one down. Ah, Okay, where can I go here?
In the last few minutes of the program, Uh, we
did Jimmy Buffett and the Epstein photos. Umm, oh, forget
(02:29:39):
your end of you don't forget let us know your
end of year. iHeart radio app rewinds, right, I mean
you're up against some serious numbers. Yeah, people were sending
us their year end rewinds. I've still not gotten one.
But it's okay, it's fine, doesn't matter. I'm more interested
in where yours are. And Dan, I thought had the
(02:30:00):
record at one hundred and ninety one thousand until I
heard from Billy in Vermilion and he had three hundred
and twenty six thousand. That's got to be the right minutes.
It's got to be. I mean, it hasn't yet been
beat a beaten, but I am more interested. And again,
(02:30:22):
you don't have to submit these to me, but Pornhub
has a year in review rewind as well. That will
tell you maybe not individually targeted to you if you
use a lot of porn Hub, but they do compile
the data of what interested people the most in twenty
twenty five, and I think if not doesn't constitute a
(02:30:44):
sea change, but year to year you kind of wonder
if it's coincidental when the things change, or if there
were external factors or something. The most viewed video category
by far on Pornhub in twenty twenty five, was lesbian
really Now They attribute some of that to an uptick
(02:31:06):
in female usage of porn Hub. Terms like lesbian scissoring,
lesbian milth okay, and lesbian strap on grew considerably pardon
the pun in twenty twenty five. Now, I will say.
Speaker 4 (02:31:26):
I was.
Speaker 1 (02:31:28):
I'm not a huge porn consumer. I never really was,
but when I watched it, Okay, I've got a tub
in my basement that just says porn, and it's the
stuff that over the years, my wife and I, you know,
you and I I'm sure got a lot of porn
over the years as promotional items.
Speaker 2 (02:31:42):
Right.
Speaker 1 (02:31:42):
It was not in Chicago. They just we were doing
stuff with this company. They were just dropping stuff all
the time. So I had this, But for my own
personal consumption, I probably had half a dozen DVDs. They
were all lesbian porn. It was a long time before
I ever saw porn with a guy in it, because
I was like, well I have one of those. I
(02:32:03):
don't need that. And what was explained to me by
like friends, well you pretend you're the guy. I'm like, no, no, no, no, no,
I can do that on my own. I got plenty
of that to go around. I like women, I like
them naked, and the more the merrier. So I was
watching exclusively lesbian porn for a long time and I
(02:32:24):
still love it. That's great.
Speaker 3 (02:32:26):
Now.
Speaker 1 (02:32:27):
Transgender porn blew up on Pornhub this year, too, partially
probably out of curiosity, maybe transgender people seeing themselves more
represented in pornography. There is a casey case of vibe
to this article. They're like transgender was up five spots
from last year and slipping two spots to number four,
(02:32:52):
Hano and slipping two in the pink and levenstake. I'm gating,
he gazed it. Queer searches are up. I assume because
of Bijon Robinson. Uh increased one thirty two percent queer
queer Okay, I mean that's a big category, right. Bisexual
(02:33:15):
was way up, and trans threesome was way up. How
about that cash me outside? How about that? How about da?
Speaker 6 (02:33:25):
So those were those were the top searches, Like they
like milf didn't make it in and well Mom and
all that stuff.
Speaker 1 (02:33:32):
Lesbian milf. I wonder if we've reached peak step Mom.
That was always like the number one thing for the
last bunch of years. Yes, so that's not even in
the top five this year. No.
Speaker 6 (02:33:42):
Wow, it seems like every video is titled that too,
Like whenever you look it's it's it's you know, step
mom grocery shopping, finds new melons, and you're like, oh, okay,
check this one, new melons.
Speaker 1 (02:33:59):
What's happening in twenty twenty five is more than just
an increase in views, said the porn Hub brand ambassador.
It's a cultural shift. Trans creators are finally contributing and
being celebrated on their own terms, is what she says.
And so it's less of a taboo. The popularity and
again is out of curiosity and maybe people just being
(02:34:21):
able to be more of who they are and what
they want to see. They saw the greatest increases in
transgender content consumption among boomers that age group. The boomers
are looking at transgender porn. They're curious, That's what I'm saying,
a lot of curiosity when you see what they're talking
(02:34:42):
about with all the transgenders.
Speaker 6 (02:34:44):
When you think about it, you've been looking at porn
for sixty years. You got to get to something sometime, like, yeah,
here's something I haven't seen lately, Michael Chay has a
great joke. I don't know how old it is, it's
not brand new, but Michael Chay has a great joke
about how lesbian porn. Lesbians don't even get to be
in their own porn.
Speaker 1 (02:35:02):
He's like, these girls are gay, They're straight girls going
down on each other, right, real lesbians don't even you know,
that's a whole other thing. But I take his point.
One of the most top ten most searched for, one
of the top ten most searched for terms in twenty
twenty five, themboy alike really femin boy, a feminine man.
Speaker 9 (02:35:25):
Isn't that metrosexual?
Speaker 1 (02:35:27):
No, that was more based in grooming. I think femboy,
lady boy that I think that falls under the rubric
property of transgender content.
Speaker 9 (02:35:35):
I've never heard that word.
Speaker 1 (02:35:37):
Well, it's kind of just it's more like probably queer
slang than anything else. I don't know that we're throwing
that word around lady boy, ladyboy. And again, it's hard
to determine which terms you know. Obviously these are subsets
on porn hub, but you use them in casual conversation,
you might get an archdebro.
Speaker 11 (02:35:57):
I don't know.
Speaker 1 (02:35:58):
Despite porn Hub being blocked in nearly half of the
US States because of course the Handmaid's Tail is in charge. Now,
I wonder if that has something to do with it too.
All you gotta do is get a VPN.
Speaker 6 (02:36:10):
No, I know, but if people are not, that could
absolutely skew those numbers.
Speaker 1 (02:36:15):
I mean, the United States is still far and away
the very top they list of the top twenty countries
by traffic. The US is far and away at the
very right.
Speaker 6 (02:36:24):
But if all the step mom porn lovers went over
to you porn because their state doesn't let you use
porn Hub anymore, Yeah, maybe that hurt it.
Speaker 1 (02:36:34):
Well, because even in the country's countries where it's blocked,
they're like, yeah, people are still seeing it, like it's
porn Hub's blocked. In France, it's still a top ten country.
People can still see it. Does the thing come up?
Have you looked? If you log in? Does it let
you log in? Or do you what happens here? I
see what you're doing, rob You're trying to trap me here. No,
I'm not a hub. I'm just look. There's a button
(02:36:58):
that says I am eighteen years or older. You click that,
that's all That's all I'm saying. I always says, is
this is an adult website. I'm eighteen, and.
Speaker 3 (02:37:08):
You go right in.
Speaker 1 (02:37:08):
Yeah, they don't have to.
Speaker 9 (02:37:09):
I thought you had to put your ID in.
Speaker 3 (02:37:11):
I did.
Speaker 1 (02:37:11):
That's what I was wondering. Huh, I see what you're doing. Well,
we talked about we talked about this a while a
while ago. A lot of websites are just going, Nope,
we're not doing that. That's what it sounds like. We're ignoring, right,
I mean, apparently you can just ignore laws now. So
these companies are getting hip to like, yeah, we're just
gonna do that too. Last year, anime porn was the
(02:37:33):
most searched term globally interesting, followed by milf and lesbian.
So LGBTQ creators are taking a bigger role in this
and being more represented on porn websites. And they also,
(02:37:53):
by the way, have SFW porn Safe for work. Now,
that's usual, just ASMR. Somebody wants to sit there and
doing their regular work and have somebody moaning in their headset.
You know, how could you concentrate? It's a good question.
I don't know. Impossibly, Hey Bill, Hello, Hey Allen, what's up?
Speaker 3 (02:38:17):
Man? Hi?
Speaker 1 (02:38:18):
Rob Hi Bill, Hey, uh hi, Hey, I got the
best joy at work today. Worked at Cleveland Clinic Main campus.
Speaker 3 (02:38:25):
I got to check in somebody Monroe named Monroe. Yeah,
paping my butt off in the inside is all I
heard was Monroe.
Speaker 2 (02:38:34):
You mean you didn't you.
Speaker 1 (02:38:34):
Didn't yell it in their face and completely freaked them out.
And because the guy looked exactly like, like, uh, what's
his name? The cop from Diehard John McClain, Oh, Reginald
Bell Johnson, you mean, yeah, yeah, he looks like him.
And I'm like, oh my god, that's crazy. He's calling
(02:38:56):
him over to the miss Monroe. But that's all I did.
Speaker 3 (02:39:03):
When he said he said his last name, I go okay,
and I looked him up. I'm like, oh my god,
his name's Monroe.
Speaker 1 (02:39:08):
Yeah, now that was his could Bill, that was his
first or last name. His first name, first name was Monroe.
Oh what made it even third? And what's your first name,
sir Monroe? Monron? His last name was Monroe too. My
name is Monroe, Monroe Monro. Oh God. Nobody had a
(02:39:32):
clue what I was laughing about.
Speaker 10 (02:39:34):
And I just kind of went, yeah, all right, I'm
gonna keep it to myself.
Speaker 1 (02:39:37):
Bill looked like a mental patient back here at work.
Speaker 7 (02:39:39):
Yeah, pretty much.
Speaker 1 (02:39:40):
I was kiggling all day the rest of the day
because of that. Yeah right, well, good, all right, good,
thank you, thank you pal.
Speaker 3 (02:39:48):
Guys have a good time you too too.
Speaker 1 (02:39:51):
Where's Bill out in Maria? Monroe Monro? And what's your name, sir? Oh,
my name is Franklin and the first name Monro.
Speaker 11 (02:40:09):
Monroe.
Speaker 6 (02:40:09):
This guy just starts laughing in the guy's face. Yeah,
I'm a booker or something with a manner. Why is
this guy laughing at me? Taking his nose?
Speaker 1 (02:40:16):
Yeah, what I just said? My name was Monroe, Franklin.
That's so funny about that. I don't.
Speaker 7 (02:40:26):
This is my name?
Speaker 1 (02:40:27):
Yah, Well, that's rude. Wasn't nice at all?
Speaker 3 (02:40:30):
That was my name.
Speaker 1 (02:40:32):
My dad's name too. I'm a junior. I'm Monroe Junior.
But all right, Jesus Christ, it's all right, sir. I
don't understand this seems to be highly inappropriate. Now I
must leave you as the Brady bunch is on and
I find four of those children incredibly arousing.
Speaker 7 (02:40:53):
Get at it.
Speaker 4 (02:40:55):
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.
(02:41:15):
One slip and you know you're through. Big Brother is watching.
Speaker 11 (02:41:21):
