Wait a minute, is that?

Speaker 5 (02:56):
You know what it is?

Speaker 4 (02:57):
Is that weekend at Bernie's two two? That was weekend
at Bernie's too.

Speaker 5 (03:03):
I didn't I didn't think anyone to get that.

Speaker 4 (03:05):
I thought I figured it out when you started doing
a little gyrating was that from what was the How
did that work in the movie? Was this sort of music.

Speaker 5 (03:12):
A couple of well, there were a couple of guys
who were like voodoo. They used voodoo on them, yeah,
to get them. I don't know what they were trying
to do, resurrect him or something, and he would get
up when you heard the music.

Speaker 4 (03:25):
Yeah. So in the first one he's just dead, he's
just dead enough. In the second one he's walking around
second Yeah, okay.

Speaker 1 (03:32):
So with voodoo, was it set New Orleans? The second one?

Speaker 5 (03:36):
I don't know if it's set in it, but isn't
the music if I'm not mistaken, it's it's sort of
like a I don't know, I don't know. I don't
want to I don't want to say the wrong region,
but but it's some sort of Yeah, it might be
New Orleans. I don't know.

Speaker 1 (03:53):
I didn't even know there was a second weekend it,
Bernie Is to be honest with you, was that it
only two or did they use more?

Speaker 4 (04:00):
I think only two. Second one is the only one
I've ever seen really one of those things where that's
just what was on cable at the time. Never saw the.

Speaker 5 (04:08):
First easier to come by.

Speaker 1 (04:10):
Yeah, that explains why you guys like Caddyshack.

Speaker 5 (04:14):
Dude, is why we like, yeah.

Speaker 1 (04:19):
But still yeah, it was McCarthy and that other guy
back in it. Yeah, you cast.

Speaker 5 (04:27):
Now I have to see where this was, where it
was set.

Speaker 4 (04:31):
Let's find out. I'll get back to you, all right,
But quickly, while you're looking that up, we have to
introduce the third man to Nick's immediate left.

Speaker 5 (04:38):
Who was the third man? You on him?

Speaker 4 (04:41):
We got him?

Speaker 3 (04:47):
Can have it.

Speaker 6 (04:50):
Every day?

Speaker 7 (04:54):
Can he.

Speaker 2 (04:57):
Get out of the way?

Speaker 4 (05:01):
Your hands together? For the breakout star of the podcast
medium Chris els Here, three of us are in the
same room this week. Flu is gone, feeling better, ready
to deliver another excellent show. What's Nick kinna tell?

Speaker 5 (05:14):
Shaking my head here because I can't, I can't. It's
a US Virgin Islands. Apparently there's a voodoo queen involved
based in the US Virgin Islands. But just the premise
of the movie is absolutely bonkers. Okay, I guess I'll
just give the shorter one, but please do taking place

(05:38):
a few days after the first film makes sense, Yeah,
I don't want to say a couple of years later.

Speaker 4 (05:43):
Sure.

Speaker 5 (05:44):
He tells the story of Larry and Richard once again
ending up with their late bosses corpse, which is again
which is targeted by a voodoo queen hired by mobsters
who want to find the two million that is in
or that Bernie Mba. Apparently Bernie was up.

Speaker 4 (06:02):
To tale as old as time.

Speaker 5 (06:04):
I mean, it's just it's just more ridiculous if you
get into the longer version, apparently.

Speaker 4 (06:08):
But anyway, well, there you have it, something for you
to watch on your time off, when you get out
of work tonight, whatever it is weekend at Bernie's two
Probably not that hard.

Speaker 5 (06:19):
To find, either that or it's impossible one or the other.
The DVD is one hundred dollars.

Speaker 4 (06:25):
That is, it's one of those weird things that happens
once in a while, some out of print thing that
was not especially a successful movie but became a cult
classic later, and then the DVD's out of print and
it's worth something. It does happen, all right.

Speaker 5 (06:42):
So how is everybody feeling feeling pretty good?

Speaker 4 (06:45):
Kind of hungry.

Speaker 5 (06:46):
I'm feeling good despite what happened to me.

Speaker 4 (06:48):
Indeed happened. Oh yeah, what's the one.

Speaker 5 (06:52):
They went to the Detroit Tigers game a couple of
weeks ago. Walking around through the mezzanine area, you know,
people going every which way masses of people trying to
get past each other. So I'm really close to an
area where it's basically there's nowhere you can get on

(07:13):
my right side. But as I'm walking someone a couple
decides we can make it. We can make it past everybody,
you know, right on the shoulder. Basically, we can make
it past this guy. This guy being me, guy holding
his drink sneaks by, makes it. His lady friend, however,

(07:35):
holding her drink almost sneaks by, something catches her shoe
or something. She flails her limbs and punches me directly
in the penis. There's no other way to say it.
And I learned something that day. Okay, so it happened.

(07:57):
You think, right, you're okay, you're on the ground at
that point. You can get punched in the penis, and
you're all right.

Speaker 4 (08:03):
Penis is durable.

Speaker 5 (08:05):
Is if it goes any lower, that's when you're incacitated
all day long. You can get punched there. And I
just had like a confused grimace on my face. That
was all that happened.

Speaker 4 (08:20):
Did she apologized? No, nothing, No, punched you right in
the penis.

Speaker 5 (08:24):
And just kept walking punched directly.

Speaker 4 (08:26):
Did she fall down? Or only flailed.

Speaker 5 (08:28):
She flailed.

Speaker 4 (08:29):
She almost kept going, well you should have just kicked
her other foot out at that point.

Speaker 5 (08:33):
Well it didn't hurt.

Speaker 4 (08:36):
I don't know, but still it's the principle of you. Yeah,
it was like, okay, she couldn't do it, you couldn't
do it, And then she ended up basically physically assaulting you. Yeah,
like directly and not apologized.

Speaker 5 (08:51):
I mean, merely sink my battleship.

Speaker 4 (08:54):
I can't imagine a situation where I would punch a
stranger's penis and not at least apologize, like, well could
you're a nice fellow? What would possibly go through your head? Really?

Speaker 5 (09:04):
Your mom raised you, right, I guess so I don't
know about these other people.

Speaker 4 (09:07):
I don't need to acknowledge that. You know, she felt it.
That's got a probably got a swollen knuckle.

Speaker 1 (09:14):
The boyfriend didn't notice any of this going on.

Speaker 5 (09:18):
He was longer, he was in front of her. This
was all, you know, sneaking through a crowd, and yeah,
so he made it. She probably had no idea.

Speaker 4 (09:28):
Wow, So that's what's you're at a baseball the.

Speaker 5 (09:33):
Penis it's not a usually not a memory that you
come away with. No family fun at the ballpark.

Speaker 4 (09:39):
Were you carrying any souvenirs or concessions or anything?

Speaker 5 (09:44):
Thankfully I was not.

Speaker 4 (09:45):
I could have been a disaster.

Speaker 5 (09:46):
It could have been a domino effect. I could have
hit the guy behind me in the same place.

Speaker 4 (09:50):
I mean, just reacting because you probably expected it to her.
You could have thrown your nachos behind you.

Speaker 5 (09:55):
Who knows, No, I mean, but you know not if
it wasn't placed just so, If her fist was not
placed just so, I might still be laying there.

Speaker 4 (10:08):
Well, that's good. A couple inches, she had longer arms,
if she was a shorter woman, any combination of things,
if she didn't, maybe if she wore flats instead of heels.
Who know, I don't know what she's wearing. I'm just
making up situation.

Speaker 5 (10:19):
I don't know what. I can't remember the footwear, but whatever, it.

Speaker 4 (10:22):
Was, so many variables that went into you.

Speaker 5 (10:24):
She was not like a cat burglar, I'll say that much. No,
not very graceful climbing on the roof gracefully. No, with
incredible agility.

Speaker 4 (10:37):
Right in the penis.

Speaker 5 (10:38):
I mean, there's no other way to say it. That
is what happened.

Speaker 4 (10:43):
And then you also saw some ladies dancing.

Speaker 5 (10:46):
Did see that? Yeah, here about that a little bit.
We're trying to find our parking place near the ball field,
and I don't even know what you call these things,
but it's a bar on wheels. Basically, there's a bar
in the middle, a bunch of people sitting around it.
They're all pedaling somehow. I don't know how this contributes exactly.
But then there's a guy in front, pedaling and steering

(11:07):
and everything, driving the thing, and it seems like it
was mostly bachelorette parties and the ladies were going a
bit wild. So we're behind this three mile an hour
thing making a left turn through an intersection and we're
trying to get through it too, and there are women
just for lack of a better term, they are twerking

(11:31):
directly at your car, well not I don't think on purpose,
but at any at any car basically that.

Speaker 4 (11:38):
Will Were they like standing up on top of the
seats or on top of the bar, They're now like
popping chairs and shaking. Yeah, yeah, talent. Were they still
peddling that, I don't remember. Amazing, That would be.

Speaker 5 (11:50):
Amazing, Wow, that would have that would have compensated for
the lack of agility that this other woman had this
overabundance of agility.

Speaker 4 (12:00):
I probably mooned someone while pedaling a bike at some point,
but I don't know about dancing.

Speaker 5 (12:06):
Well, imagine like that's what pegs are for.

Speaker 4 (12:08):
Right your feet back there, your pants, face.

Speaker 5 (12:12):
The guy driving the bike who's pedaling, and just moon
the neighborhood. But this is what happens in Detroit.

Speaker 1 (12:19):
This is what happens to you wherever you go.

Speaker 5 (12:22):
Chris never warned me, not at all, because.

Speaker 1 (12:25):
It doesn't happen to anybody else.

Speaker 5 (12:27):
Closed fists to the genitals. He never told me this
was going to happen. He could have. He could have.

Speaker 4 (12:34):
That's part of the.

Speaker 1 (12:35):
I didn't want to rain on your parade. You know,
you might not have gone. I don't know. I just
assume that crazy shi It's going to happen to you anyway,
So I mention anything wherever you go, it just may ensues.

Speaker 4 (12:54):
Was that the giveaway at the game penis.

Speaker 1 (12:56):
Punch Thomas Hearn's Night at the Ballpark?

Speaker 4 (13:03):
Was there a giveaway? There was?

Speaker 5 (13:05):
But I did not get it. I did not get
the little.

Speaker 1 (13:08):
Penis punch and glove and Nick's penis was Peppino Quavis.

Speaker 7 (13:17):
That night.

Speaker 1 (13:18):
I don't know what I'm talking about. Look that up
on YouTube, the knockout that put Tommy on the map.

Speaker 5 (13:26):
Yikes.

Speaker 4 (13:28):
All right, well, so.

Speaker 1 (13:29):
Are you gonna come out with another cover version? What? What?
What am I? Damn it?

Speaker 5 (13:38):
I had it on my I can't wait.

Speaker 1 (13:40):
My pen your fist, my penis something like that.

Speaker 5 (13:45):
All right, Well it's happening.

Speaker 1 (13:49):
You should have broken into song right there.

Speaker 4 (13:53):
That's good.

Speaker 1 (13:56):
Per fist my penis. Another production number is in the works.

Speaker 5 (14:05):
Consider that a public service announcement.

Speaker 4 (14:08):
Yeah, I see you got a bag of something over there?

Speaker 5 (14:10):
Yeah, of them? What do you know?

Speaker 1 (14:24):
See those those uh plastic batting helmets that the nachos
come in. You want to just put that over your
schwanz Jean cod piece s.

Speaker 5 (14:35):
An athletic supporter should have been the giveaway, Oh thank you?
Because the women there.

Speaker 1 (14:41):
Apparently cock punch cod piece.

Speaker 5 (14:43):
Well, I mean it's it's the.

Speaker 1 (14:45):
Must be eighteen or over.

Speaker 5 (14:48):
It's the penis punch capital of the world. As far
as I'm concerned.

Speaker 4 (14:51):
It is now one population one. Hey, what is this
some kind of some kind of.

Speaker 1 (14:58):
Her fist mind penis, that's for sure.

Speaker 5 (15:09):
So what we have here.

Speaker 1 (15:11):
I've seen some ship in Detroit. I've not seen either
of those things. Mobile twerking and my her fist my penis.

Speaker 5 (15:20):
That thing was shaking too. By the way, I'll bet
that's an Eddie money covered for you.

Speaker 1 (15:27):
So what do we got here? We got loaves, we
got robust loads robust it is robust, so thickness to it,
some weight. So what we have here is its chick
said when she touched your penis, it's got some thickness
to it.

Speaker 5 (15:44):
So, uh, long story short with this. Worked with Ai again,
great on a recipe. Uh, interesting experience getting to do that.
But anyway, there's a show from about ten years ago
that my kids and I were watching, a cartoon called

(16:05):
Over the Garden Wall, and there's a song, a little
silly song that there's a kid in it that sings
a song about potatoes and molasses. H And it's a
catchy little song. And I thought, you could do, I know,
you can, you know do potato bread and you had molasses,

(16:26):
and what goes with probably that flavor combination with the molasses,
I'd say a peanut butter swirl to get a Mary
Jane sort of effect. So that's what we have here
potatoes and molasses loaf.

Speaker 4 (16:38):
Nick's never made a peanut that he didn't want to butter.

Speaker 5 (16:45):
That's absolutely true.

Speaker 1 (16:46):
So potato molasses loaf, Yeah.

Speaker 5 (16:50):
With a peanut butter swirl on top. So well, I
had some earlier I thought, okay, like AI, you know,
I thought it, is it even gonna bake? Is there
something wrong? You know, something that's gonna be fundamentally wrong
with the recipe and it's not gonna do anything.

Speaker 4 (17:10):
But no, it's healthy.

Speaker 5 (17:11):
Yeah it did.

Speaker 4 (17:12):
Okay, it's nice.

Speaker 5 (17:13):
Look at that beautiful the peanut butter. I think is
is pretty. It's a nice touch.

Speaker 4 (17:19):
I would say, Well, I'm looking forward to eating it.
I'm also looking forward to see if somehow it pairs
with the reveal of this week's song. Well, we covered
a lot of topics so far, so yeah, we did
somehow we got it connect It is it your turn? Nick?

Speaker 5 (17:33):
Yeah, I'm coming over and over, I come over, come
on over.

Speaker 1 (17:37):
You know, it wasn't a nice touch when Nick got
punched in the Cocke Co America Park.

Speaker 5 (17:46):
Apparently that kind of thing is legal, possibly even encouraged.

Speaker 1 (17:50):
Maybe we'll get the Bloodhound Gang bad touch. Don't they
have a song called that.

Speaker 4 (17:56):
I don't know they have a bad time.

Speaker 1 (17:58):
I have to ask Mike carew So the biggest blood
Hound Gang fan I know?

Speaker 7 (18:03):
Really?

Speaker 4 (18:04):
Yeah? How big a legit fan? Mm hmm. It's the
only fan I know. I think. Yeah, I'm gonna get
this punched up here that word. Nick's standing right behind
me with this penis.

Speaker 5 (18:19):
I have a I have a trigger word now like
phouse but every time?

Speaker 4 (18:26):
All right, Well, Nick, that's not the right program.

Speaker 1 (18:30):
Didn't you don't you have to fire up.

Speaker 4 (18:32):
The Yes, Nick, you're ready? Fired up verse full number
seven hundred seventy nine mm. Scrolling to it now seven
it is Nick loves it. Let's do it. You seen it? Yeah,

(18:54):
but he loves it.

Speaker 7 (18:57):
M hmm.

Speaker 5 (19:00):
I'm not gonna say yes, but I'm gonna hold on
to it.

Speaker 4 (19:03):
Do you know that one?

Speaker 3 (19:04):
No?

Speaker 5 (19:04):
But well it's a it's a it's a case where
it's on there twice from the same guy.

Speaker 4 (19:12):
Oh. One is an album version. One is a live version.

Speaker 5 (19:16):
Like okay, well I'll hold on to it.

Speaker 4 (19:20):
Okay, let's give it another poll nex poles number one
fifty one fifty one, pretty high at the top here
right there.

Speaker 5 (19:34):
Mm hmmm.

Speaker 7 (19:37):
No, I mean.

Speaker 5 (19:40):
Feeling that I wouldn't under other circumstances.

Speaker 1 (19:43):
But just what what are the current circumstances or forbidding
this one? You don't have to answer.

Speaker 5 (19:50):
We've done a couple of songs by this artists, Okay,
not like super recently. All right, but yeah, just I
don't know, just not one that I'm feeling right now.
Probably the second song. If I were listening to, I
would guess back to back the first song on the

(20:13):
second song, I'd probably enjoy the second song better. But
I just don't know about it being an episode right now?

Speaker 4 (20:20):
That makes sense?

Speaker 5 (20:21):
All right?

Speaker 4 (20:21):
One more nick, third and final pull fourteen one fourteen one.

Speaker 5 (20:35):
Man, this is interesting. I see the Yeah, yeah, let's
do that one. We've never this is this artist we've
never never covered the one of the bandmates I believe

(20:56):
has been featured on an episode in a song, but
not the main artist the front.

Speaker 4 (21:07):
All right, do you want me to read the information
if you could? All right, well, let's go for it.
Let's go for it. The eyes are bad, brain is bad,
I can't see anything. Wait, what's in this cake loaf

(21:29):
you gave me?

Speaker 5 (21:31):
Well?

Speaker 4 (21:32):
I has a kiteo. Here we go. Let's turn the
microphone over to Chris Jericho. Hell, this one's call stay
with me off of A nod is as good as
a wink horse the faces. All right, long album title there,

(21:54):
A nod is as good as a wink to a
blind horse.

Speaker 5 (21:58):
Probably if I had to guess one of those British idioms.

Speaker 4 (22:05):
Hell, this is on the list twice.

Speaker 5 (22:07):
Two different people.

Speaker 4 (22:08):
Yeah, all right, all right, the one that you picked,
Colin Taco Bell. Let me tell you what Colin says here.
A brilliant slice of dirty, swaggering, dick swinging rock and
roll from the early seventies. No surprise that it was
written by well known cocksman Rod Stewart and Ronnie Wood.

Speaker 5 (22:29):
Just all about the Pelvic region tonight.

Speaker 4 (22:32):
That's it, everybody, Yeah, it's appropriate.

Speaker 5 (22:36):
And then the other submission for those who don't know
who's the lead singer in this, Rod Stewart. Ah, Yes,
still out there packing.

Speaker 4 (22:43):
Them those genes.

Speaker 5 (22:45):
You're talking about, packing the jeans, packing the audiences.

Speaker 1 (22:48):
And he was right here at Tinley Park a couple
of weeks ago.

Speaker 4 (22:52):
I didn't realize that he's on the road right now.
Huh yep, Oh.

Speaker 5 (22:56):
He's always man. He was doing that American songbook thing
he did like what four albums? Just why not packing it?
Packing him in every single place?

Speaker 4 (23:05):
He went?

Speaker 7 (23:07):
All right.

Speaker 4 (23:07):
In the other submission, it's from Mark Givetts. Mark says
The Faces were a killer band from the early seventies,
Broad Stewart, Ronnie Wood and Kenny Jones or just a
few members you might have heard of. This song still

(23:27):
holds up after fifty years.

Speaker 1 (23:33):
And this was one of the songs that def Leppard
covered on the Yeah album.

Speaker 5 (23:39):
Yes he did? And who sang lead on that one?
Mister Phil Collin did he?

Speaker 4 (23:44):
Yeah?

Speaker 5 (23:44):
Oh yeah, did a did a really good job too.

Speaker 1 (23:47):
Yeah, as you he never never picked up on that,
but yeah, I guess you're right.

Speaker 5 (23:53):
So let's see what year was this particular track or
this album HM seventy one, seventy one. So it looks
like Steve Marriott left. When did he leave? Imagine imagine
who wasn't in the band? But imagine that you have

(24:14):
Steve Marriott and then oh we got to replace him,
and then who do you get? Rod Stewart? Right, I mean, unbelievable.
Looks like I don't know, I won't pretend to know
a lot about this band, but I guess the small faces?

Speaker 1 (24:33):
Is that what the they were originally because most of them,
if not all of them, were short.

Speaker 4 (24:39):
That's why they called themselves up.

Speaker 1 (24:41):
Yeah, and then they started adding taller members and got
away with the.

Speaker 5 (24:48):
Rod Stewart having himself a taller member.

Speaker 1 (24:52):
It's the word on the street.

Speaker 5 (24:55):
So yeah, I don't know. I'm not gonna on the
fly try to figure out the chronology here, but yeah,
it's it's one of those bands where you have just
a bunch of studs in it basically musically speaking, mm
hm and h are they all still around?

Speaker 4 (25:17):
Uh?

Speaker 7 (25:18):
Mean?

Speaker 1 (25:18):
These main bass player passed away? He had he had one,
he had a l s.

Speaker 5 (25:24):
I believe he board us no longer with us.

Speaker 1 (25:26):
A big benefit concert in the eighties for him.

Speaker 5 (25:30):
That okay, So we have drummer Kenny Jones, Ronnie Wood
and Rod Stewart, both from the Jeff Beck group. So
there you go. Oh now I'm back on weekend at Bernie's.
What happened? So yeah, this, Uh, I don't know. I

(25:53):
think our our listeners there have set the scene for
what to expect, and I say we just get into it.
Unless there's anybody else's curious about any factoids.

Speaker 4 (26:09):
Well, I see some people in the chat clamoring for
a certain segment. I don't know if there's any chance
of that happening, but I do want to say, I
see you.

Speaker 5 (26:21):
What what number song was?

Speaker 7 (26:23):
This?

Speaker 3 (26:24):
Was this?

Speaker 4 (26:25):
Fourteen oh one?

Speaker 5 (26:26):
No, but we could go with them? Was that was
the last one? Okay?

Speaker 4 (26:30):
Yeah?

Speaker 5 (26:30):
All right? On the case?

Speaker 4 (26:34):
Yeah, So how long did Rod stay with the Faces
before he went?

Speaker 7 (26:40):
So long?

Speaker 4 (26:40):
Was that in the eighties or late it was disco?
That's right?

Speaker 1 (26:44):
Was three or four years?

Speaker 5 (26:47):
Ante? Was it? Didn't you guys do a Rod Stewart
song hot? That's right? So I was I was mistaken
when I said this. This artist was never covered.

Speaker 4 (26:59):
Well and you were here?

Speaker 1 (27:01):
True, not in the context of this band.

Speaker 5 (27:03):
That's true. Ah, man, I don't know that there's anything
for our segment. I'm sorry.

Speaker 1 (27:10):
Yeah, I'm not finding anything. I mean, I'm looking at
nineteen seventy one right now, I'm not finding anything.

Speaker 4 (27:17):
So oh well, we tried, our tried every year.

Speaker 1 (27:21):
I didn't see anything.

Speaker 4 (27:23):
All right, Well, is there anything else we want to
say before we get into this one? Are we ready
to go?

Speaker 1 (27:29):
I'm curious how Andy will respond to it, because he's
a known enemy of all things classic rock, and I
think this falls into that category, so.

Speaker 4 (27:40):
I might hate it.

Speaker 1 (27:41):
Yeah, he's he's not a fan of anything that is
classified as classic rock. I'm discovering.

Speaker 5 (27:48):
When Andy and I and our drummer friend first started
playing music, one of the songs that we tried playing
that Andy singh lead on was reason to believe.

Speaker 4 (27:57):
All right, that's because the album was big at the time.

Speaker 5 (28:02):
Yeah, or a little bit before that.

Speaker 4 (28:03):
But yeah, so who knows, maybe Ron will turn me here.

Speaker 5 (28:08):
Andy's a wild card.

Speaker 4 (28:09):
Yeah, all right, quick commercial break, We'll be back with
stay with me.

Speaker 5 (28:49):
Oh, sorry to stop it there. Uh, it's you can tell, Okay,
this band can lock in with the each other. Yeah,
really great selection of bass notes happening really up in
the mix too, and it really works that way. The

(29:14):
guitar is the the quietest thing once everything kicks in.

Speaker 4 (29:19):
That's true, kind of just gets lost in there.

Speaker 5 (29:21):
It really works, though, and it's got like a live
bar band sort of. I guess pub rock. Perhaps it
would be more more frequently called in the across the Pond,
but it has that sort of a sound to it.

Speaker 4 (29:37):
Pud rock.

Speaker 1 (29:38):
You said.

Speaker 4 (29:41):
That was a bad company, A couple of weeks ago.

Speaker 5 (29:43):
There, and he's still not done with that.

Speaker 4 (29:46):
He's not the inventors of pud rock. There's butt rock,
and then maybe fifteen years before pud rock, oh boy,
twenty years before whatever it was.

Speaker 1 (30:03):
Yeah, the Faces in general, but especially on this song,
we're definitely in that sort of post British invasion Rolling
Stones camp where they were just a lot more rocking,
you know, we're little. I mean, the songs had had

(30:23):
pop hooks and they were popular, but they were a
lot more down and dirty rock and roll, and the
Faces were like shoulder to shoulder with the Stones, with
that kind of British you know, full throttle rock and
roll of the time.

Speaker 5 (30:43):
Around what year did Ron would join.

Speaker 1 (30:46):
The Stones, I think seventy five or seventy six, something
like that for Black and Blue, So I want to
say that's seventy six, So yeah, you know, him and
Rod did the Faces thing for a few years and
then Rod went solo, Ronnie Wood joined the Stones, Kenny

(31:08):
Jones wouldn't join the Who until like seventy eight, seventy nine,
after Keith Moon died. So first part of the seventies
is their their main thing.

Speaker 4 (31:22):
All right, let's see what happens with this electric piano.

Speaker 5 (31:45):
Kind of bold to have a tempo change like that. Yeah,
it just they just sort of jammed a little bit
at double time and then they then they brought it down.

Speaker 1 (31:56):
It's great arrangement.

Speaker 5 (31:59):
Yeah, reminds me of only Andy is gonna know this reference.
I apologize in advance. But the handsome Jimmy Valiant song
Son of a Gypsy starts off with like a upbeat
early eighties def Leppard groove and then goes into like a.

Speaker 4 (32:15):
Blues It's it's the same song basically, So the Son
of a Gypsy that's what that's called. Yeah, yeah, okay,
you say it like I'm a fool for not you.
I've heard it many times in your car.

Speaker 5 (32:30):
I'm an Indiana native, andsome Jimmy Valiant.

Speaker 4 (32:33):
That's right. Look it up.

Speaker 1 (32:36):
Andy, your thoughts so far.

Speaker 4 (32:39):
I liked it at first, not loving this part, but
we'll see where it goes.

Speaker 1 (32:43):
You didn't like the tempo change.

Speaker 4 (32:46):
That's kind of messy for me, messy it's all over
the place.

Speaker 1 (32:50):
Well, that's see that, ironically, that's you stumbled upon one
of the appealing things about especially the faces that they
were You wouldn't ever describe them as the tightest band
in the world. They were all kind of like, you know,
a little rough around the edges, seemingly on the verge

(33:12):
of falling apart all times, and and that was part
of the appeal of it, not to you obviously classic rock.

Speaker 5 (33:22):
I get what Andy's saying though, because at the beginning
it was you could decipher exactly what the groove is
right away with the faster part. The slower part took
a couple of I'll just say, a couple of bars, right,
a couple of bars on wheels.

Speaker 1 (33:39):
It's not you know, there's it's not a smooth transition.
And again that's part of it. We're not we're not
listening to Rush today. We're not listening to Dream Theater.
We're listening to, like you said, a pub band. You
know what do you what is? What is a pub
band Guys who've had had a few points up there

(34:01):
playing rowdy rock and roll, and you're gonna have this
kind of you know, h on the edge of collapse
quality at all times, which to me is almost one
hundred percent of the appeal. It's like, is this gonna
just completely fall apart? Or is it gonna be awesome,
and that creates that that tension that we talk about frequently.

Speaker 4 (34:24):
All right, let's see where it goes.

Speaker 5 (34:51):
What do you think Andy did? What did Rod come in?

Speaker 4 (34:55):
Sounds great? Yeah, Rod's the man. Nothing bad to say
about Rod here.

Speaker 1 (35:00):
Oh no, nobody could possibly have any issues with Rod
Sew or you. You could maybe be like, he got
a little soft with the songbook and and and Reason
to Believe and all this other, you know, sort of
middle of the road stuff he did.

Speaker 4 (35:19):
But he's also eighty years old.

Speaker 1 (35:21):
Well he wasn't when you were covering Reason to Mase fifties.
That you recording that is just patently ridiculous.

Speaker 4 (35:31):
In his fifties, probably.

Speaker 1 (35:36):
An emotional song, heartfelt song delivered by Andy Jones. This
just doesn't make any sense to anyone at all. But
but in terms of just straight ahead, pure rock, nobody
can have any any qualms about anything Rod ever did.

Speaker 5 (35:55):
And I'll come out and say it, I like this
the song that I'm going to say. I liked it
when it came out like thirty years ago. Still like it.
It's a there's not much edge to it, but it's great.
And that's do you remember leave Virginia alone. I don't
know it was he it was a semi hit for him,

(36:16):
like mid nineties. Okay, it sounded great on it. I
mean it's it's it's just more like an acoustic y
not necessarily a ballad. But he sounds great on pretty
much everything, like again, those American songbook things he's doing,
like Stardust, you know, whatever, the songs that you would expect,

(36:37):
unforgettable things like that. Sounds great. Versatile vocalist. I'm assuming
he's still he can still do it. For the most part.
I haven't really heard anybody say that.

Speaker 1 (36:48):
He's There's no footage those there's no put it this way,
there's no Frankie Valley esque footage of him wandering around
the stage in a complete fucking day. Is he can
still entertain a thirty thousand people?

Speaker 4 (37:05):
What's happening with Frankie?

Speaker 1 (37:07):
Well, his people are trotting him out there because he's
the he's the money man. Nobody's showing up if Frankie Valley.

Speaker 4 (37:15):
Isn't involved, can't be for long. He's frightening the audience.

Speaker 1 (37:18):
So they they prop him up.

Speaker 5 (37:21):
It is alarming.

Speaker 1 (37:22):
Ex elder exploitation is what it is.

Speaker 5 (37:25):
Where yeah, that one video is the new ones all
the time. Well, the one that the the one that
I saw first was just the one where he's not
moving his mouth at all.

Speaker 4 (37:36):
It's the track of him and nineteen years old saying.

Speaker 5 (37:40):
And he's he looks.

Speaker 1 (37:42):
It has the same appeal that most people had when
watching the slow speed O J Chase. It's like, am
I going to see a death on Life TV?

Speaker 7 (37:52):
Yeah?

Speaker 1 (37:52):
And you're you know that Frankie Valley footage. He was like,
is he is? He just going to collapse on stage
with somebody filming it, but they're still trotting him out.
Point being, you ain't getting that out of Rod. He's
got to be in his eighties now, right.

Speaker 4 (38:10):
He's eighty yeah.

Speaker 1 (38:13):
Still doing it, still killing it on stage. And that
was one of the another one of the concerts that
I got sent to in my summer internship in Milwaukee,
so nineteen eighty nine, so it was at thirty six
years ago, so he's like forty four. The effect he

(38:37):
had on the women in that Amphitheater was fucking unbelievable.
I've never seen anything like it. It was at the
big summer fest Amphitheater forty thousand people. I was what,
twenty two years old, surrounded by thirty forty something women,

(38:57):
all whipped into a frenzy by this guy. This is
the greatest night of my life. This is incredible, amazing
effect on the female members of that audience, which was
most of the crowd, by the way, amazing.

Speaker 4 (39:13):
Our friend Tommy Lombardosi.

Speaker 5 (39:16):
Wait a minute, are you sure we want to.

Speaker 1 (39:18):
Yeah, what kind of vulgart is this pervert gonna spill out?

Speaker 4 (39:22):
Let me plug my ears real quick, he said, Uh
leave Virginia Loans written by Tom Petty.

Speaker 5 (39:31):
Oh yeah, yep, very true. Yeah, nice little song.

Speaker 1 (39:35):
Okay, yeah, Rod is unassailable essentially, I mean it's it's
really I mean, I don't think I've ever heard anybody
say a bad word about Rod. So, you know, all right,

(40:14):
decidedly misogynistic lyrics. You know, in the modern day, one
might classify this as toxic masculinity. It's a classic. It
was a different time situation, I think.

Speaker 5 (40:29):
I mean, it's if again, if it's pub rock, this
is the this is the kind of stuff you probably
on a nightly basis. Here someone yell, oh.

Speaker 1 (40:38):
No, I'm I totally agree. But you fast forward to
the modern day, and you'd have you know, people clamoring
for the cancelation of these guys for these.

Speaker 4 (40:49):
What did he say? You don't need much persueden. I
don't mean to sound degrading.

Speaker 1 (40:57):
The face like that. You got nothing to laugh about out,
you know, just basically just being mean to a woman.
It's not allowed anymore.

Speaker 4 (41:08):
What does that mean? You got nothing else? Is he
saying that she doesn't have a pretty face?

Speaker 5 (41:11):
Yeah?

Speaker 7 (41:12):
Okay?

Speaker 1 (41:12):
Probably Yeah, okay, Rod.

Speaker 5 (41:17):
The stop a clock sort of you know expression.

Speaker 1 (41:23):
And you know then in the from the previous stanza,
the notion about you know, throwing a woman out in
the morning for after a an evening of coitus and
making her do the walk of shame.

Speaker 5 (41:36):
You know, Andy just found a line that he likes.

Speaker 4 (41:39):
I have a feeling the next line.

Speaker 7 (41:41):
Yeah.

Speaker 4 (41:42):
Yeah, let's keep going and get to it. Well, mean
old Jezebel.

Speaker 1 (41:53):
Andy a fan of the Jezebel word because.

Speaker 4 (41:56):
It was a word used by Dusty Rhodes and some
backstage segments back in the day.

Speaker 1 (42:02):
Yeah, it's you know, it's a typical, it's a it's
an age old term for a trill up, loose woman,
unsavory woman.

Speaker 5 (42:14):
Yeah, I still don't know how. Well, we haven't gotten
to the chorus yet, but I don't know how lyrically
the verse makes any sense with the chorus, But I
guess we'll find out or we won't.

Speaker 4 (42:25):
Yeah, that's.

Speaker 2 (42:32):
Style style, matty.

Speaker 5 (42:48):
Matter, no idea.

Speaker 4 (42:54):
How uh.

Speaker 5 (42:57):
How this kind of sweet talk goes over?

Speaker 1 (43:00):
Yeah, after that verbal lamb based and then.

Speaker 5 (43:04):
You and then you better stay with me?

Speaker 1 (43:07):
Yeah, I mean, I mean, this is another dynamic we've
discussed in some of the other songs where the guy
says one thing and immediately pivots to another thing. Maybe
tried to confuse the woman or a gas lighter or
something like that.

Speaker 4 (43:22):
Maybe she insulted him and we didn't hear it, and
he's insulted her back, and then he's like, no, come on,
I didn't mean it. Let's go read the tarot card.

Speaker 5 (43:31):
Well, and I don't even think he's pretending like he didn't. Yeah,
but he's he's saying anyway.

Speaker 1 (43:37):
Yeah, yeah, right before I kick you out in the morning,
you're gonna stay with me tonight.

Speaker 5 (43:44):
So I mean it's incredible lyric or not lyric, incredible
vocal performance.

Speaker 1 (43:53):
Great about music perfra Yeah, great and everything you know, again,
this is not the brand of music. Same with the Stones,
and they're high point in the early seventies. You would
never describe them as a tight band, but yet everyone

(44:13):
is on the same page, if that makes any sense. Yeah,
And like you guys observed, there are times when that
is in jeopardy in some of these songs, and you're
just like, is this whole thing to just fall down?
And then they just they write the ship and continue
plowing forward with some of the some of the best

(44:35):
rock and roll songs in history.

Speaker 5 (44:38):
And I gotta say, I mean, like, yeah, lyrically, we're like,
I mean, I won't even say it's modern day you're
put off by it. I'm thinking even back then you
hear it and then you're put off by it. But
does it work with the aggressive delivery of the vocal.
Absolutely yeah, I mean it all sounds great together.

Speaker 4 (45:00):
No matter.

Speaker 1 (45:00):
It was awesome. This is again a hugely popular, popular
song at the time, staple of classic rock radio to
this day. So you know, if if people were put
off by it, it didn't get it didn't keep it
off of any radio station playlists or anything like that.

Speaker 7 (45:20):
So mm hmm, Please don't.

Speaker 2 (45:48):
Say jet.

Speaker 4 (45:57):
Play y'all come play.

Speaker 5 (46:08):
Wanted to comment on the the guitar and where where
it's sitting in the mix with that fuzzy tone for
a few moments here and there, it almost sounds like
a dirty saxophone sound. Mm hmm, just just the way
it on occasion, the way it's cutting through in the mix.

(46:30):
It's I guess what is that a Kinks sound?

Speaker 1 (46:33):
Is that what we're hearing with that kind of fuzz
on the guitar, Yeah, it's you.

Speaker 5 (46:40):
Know, what would you call it?

Speaker 2 (46:41):
Like?

Speaker 5 (46:41):
Who made that that sort of sound popular? Besides like
a helter skelter?

Speaker 1 (46:46):
No, I think Kinks the first, and you know, Jimmy
Page is known to have played on early Kinks recording,
So I just think, you know, those all those bands
are the first to like, you know, send an amp
into overdrive and get that natural distortion, and then the
Stones embraced it in the late sixties, and then here

(47:09):
we are with the Faces. So yeah, and the bass
playing continues to be a sublime throughout this song. It's
Roby Lane. He's the guy who had the Als. I
believe they had the benefit concert for him in the eighties.
And then of course Ian mclaggan on the keyboards, who

(47:33):
you know, sat in with the Stones on a few things.
But he's killing it too. You know, the whole old
band's doing great. This is just pure rock and roll
right here.

Speaker 4 (48:00):
S all right?

Speaker 1 (49:39):
Now? Did you guys like that up tempo section a
little better towards the end and sort of how they
brought it background full circle started the song it ended
with the same Yeah.

Speaker 5 (49:52):
I do too, And I think where how it started
to speed up. It wasn't like bam, all of a sudden. Yeah,
it wasn't like you know, there was a certain measure
or whatever where everybody knew, okay, we're going faster. Yeah, yeah,
it did it really, it was somewhat gradual based on

(50:17):
just executing a tempo change like that. Yeah, it was
pretty cool. It's I mean, that's when when we're in
the middle of it, you hear that, you know, like
when they were stopping and then letting like the Billy
preston keyboard kind of thing going on. Yeah, and then
they kicked back into it. I would imagine if you're

(50:38):
in the room, I mean on the recording, it's it's heavy,
super heavy. Imagine being in the room. Oh yeah, it's
a that's a that's a great noise that they're they're generating.

Speaker 1 (50:49):
Oh yeah, and this is you can be almost one
hundred percent confident that they were. This is one of
those sessions where they were performed live as a band.
There wasn't like a drum track laid down and they're
doing this, putting their parts on separately.

Speaker 5 (51:08):
It was just didn't even mike it up.

Speaker 1 (51:11):
Play it overdub the vocal, maybe fix a few things
here and there, but yeah, it's just pure.

Speaker 7 (51:18):
Rock and roll.

Speaker 5 (51:19):
I'm not even getting the impression that there would be
any punching in or out for for this record.

Speaker 1 (51:25):
Yeah, it sounds to me like, again, it was not
pet sounds. This is not Sergeant Pepper. This is just
straight up rock and roll. Yeah, a classic, all time classic.

Speaker 4 (51:39):
Well Nick used to vote first Sweet Surrender of Kicking
the Cross.

Speaker 5 (51:43):
The Sweet Surrender. Hell yeah, yeah, it's uh, it's pretty fantastic.
And like Chris was saying, it's this is there's rock
and roll that's a little more like a polished like

(52:03):
Buddy Holly ish, you know, kind of thing like that
country ish. This is just straight up, like in a
in a smoky bar, just playing loud, rockous music and
it really you hear stories where doesn't exactly translate onto

(52:26):
the recordings, it absolutely does in this case.

Speaker 4 (52:31):
So all right, Chris, oh sweet surrounder, of course?

Speaker 1 (52:40):
Hell yeah, all time classic. I mean this is this
is my idea of rock and roll music. Is there
a fireworks display?

Speaker 4 (52:51):
Sounds like an airplane, but it's it's constant. I don't
know what that is.

Speaker 5 (52:54):
Sounds like like the snowplows are out for We all
have a difference weird shit going on.

Speaker 4 (53:00):
We all have a different idea of what's happening outside.

Speaker 1 (53:03):
But yeah, this is this is the essence rock and
roll right here, great gritty vocal, down and dirty playing
by everybody. All time classic. I mean again, the misogyny
of the lyrics is not enough to put this song

(53:26):
out to pasture. This is from day one. It was
an all time classic and remain So, I mean, what
else do you say about it?

Speaker 5 (53:34):
I mean, you can always you can always say whether
it's the case or not he's portraying a character, but you.

Speaker 1 (53:42):
Can say that you don't get away. You don't get
to get away with that as easy in music as
you do in movies. But I know what you're talking about.

Speaker 5 (53:50):
But I mean, in this case, say that this was
part of a musical like a Broadway play or whatever
like that. It's the character perfectly acceptable, that music goes
perfectly well with what this uh to put it to
put it lightly and charitably rough around the Edge's character

(54:12):
is saying, we all.

Speaker 1 (54:14):
Know this dynamic exists. The the concept of the walk
of shame is a thing. People know what that is,
and this is basically a depiction of the what leads
up to that scenario.

Speaker 4 (54:30):
M oh I turned to vote, Huh, well, what did
you think?

Speaker 5 (54:35):
I didn't like it? Did you?

Speaker 4 (54:36):
I'm giving a sweet surrender. Hell yeah, it did make
me wish I didn't speak English, because then I would
have really loved it. But the performances are great, especially
you know, all the music, but especially Rod's vocal performance

(54:56):
is great. Though it's a dumb I don't know. The
lyric is just kind of dumb, but whatever, it doesn't
ruin it for me.

Speaker 5 (55:04):
It's exceedingly dumb, but it is what it is.

Speaker 4 (55:07):
It's just it's not it's not clever dumb. It's just
like they're just saying things. It's not like log in
your fireplace kind of dumb where it's some metaphor or
idiom or whatever.

Speaker 1 (55:20):
Like the Tarot cards line.

Speaker 4 (55:22):
I guess he's just wasn't that a literal thing, like,
let's don't know, read some tarot cards?

Speaker 1 (55:27):
Yeah, but I mean, you know, the scenario involves a
complete bone head a lot of an individual, so the
lyrics are appropriate.

Speaker 4 (55:38):
What I typically don't like a bonehead? No, I'm not
a huge fan of the bonehead, No, of course not.
But not no, why would I be.

Speaker 5 (55:48):
I think maybe meathead is a better word.

Speaker 1 (55:50):
I don't know, whatever, same thing.

Speaker 5 (55:53):
But I get where you're coming from.

Speaker 1 (55:56):
But coming from a guar fan, it's just it's enigmatic.
It's the politest way I can put it. There's just
no rhyme or reason to it.

Speaker 4 (56:09):
It's okay, yeah, they're they're playing a character. So is
this guy? Yeah, yeah, that's what it is. It's a
character maybe because it's so over the top that it's
it's out on the other side where it's just a
parody of ridiculousness instead of something that's supposed to be
rooted in reality or an actual image or whatever that

(56:30):
you know, they're trying to portray as being truthful. But
I don't know that's the way I'm reading into it.
But look where we found ourselves. No, not there here,
I got.

Speaker 5 (56:44):
A question for you, do you know? Uh, let's see,
I'm looking up the chart positions.

Speaker 7 (56:56):
For the son.

Speaker 5 (56:59):
Would you care to get one of the two countries
where it charted the highest, which would be number four?

Speaker 4 (57:06):
South Africa? No, damn it, Chris, would.

Speaker 5 (57:11):
You like to take a guess?

Speaker 1 (57:12):
What was the question?

Speaker 5 (57:14):
Again? This song the highest chart position was number four,
and that it happened in two different countries. Would you
care to guess what one of them might be? Andy
already guessed South Africa, which is not a country, but anyway, it.

Speaker 1 (57:29):
Was I want to say Australia.

Speaker 5 (57:33):
Incorrect as well?

Speaker 4 (57:36):
Apparently is it a European nation?

Speaker 5 (57:38):
Apparently they loved it in the Netherlands.

Speaker 4 (57:41):
Doesn't say Belgium and in Canada? No kidding, Okay, that
makes sense. The Netherlands couldn't get enough of us?

Speaker 5 (57:50):
Yeah, I guess, And for you would think it would
appeal to the Australians, but it was only number forty one.

Speaker 4 (57:58):
Question there?

Speaker 5 (58:01):
I mean this is this is practically a tender ballad
in Australia.

Speaker 1 (58:09):
As I recall and you kind of like Rose tattoo.
They're they're kind of meatthead rock. But you enjoy that, right, Yeah,
I guess so.

Speaker 4 (58:23):
I don't know. Maybe I just thought it was funny
because he was talking about a goose. I'm going to
squeeze my goose or whatever juice on the loose.

Speaker 5 (58:31):
Squeeze my goose.

Speaker 4 (58:32):
Is that what he says, squeeze or is it something
else more ridiculous on my goose? Maybe that's part of
the streets of Detroit. If it's going to be conveyed,
I need it to be conveyed in either a clever

(58:52):
way or a silly way, some kind of creative way,
instead of just a literal.

Speaker 1 (58:58):
So you think it's too too literal the lyrics here.

Speaker 5 (59:02):
Yeah, I mean it's a it's a it's an unlikable
yeah subject the guy it's not very coy.

Speaker 4 (59:09):
He's not a he's an asshole.

Speaker 1 (59:11):
Yeah, you want you wonder how he even lured a
woman back to his place to begin with. But you know, again,
this is a familiar dynamic. It's probably taking shape right
now at the luxury the bullpen, the luxury sports bar.

Speaker 4 (59:32):
In your mind, people still doing that.

Speaker 1 (59:35):
You're asking the wrong, dude, and I don't know. I'm
fucking in bed by eight thirty normally.

Speaker 4 (59:44):
All right, my vote is in my in.

Speaker 1 (59:47):
Of course, I think Andy should go last because he's
the X factor.

Speaker 4 (59:52):
Let's go same order, Nick, Chris me. I'll give it
a rock roll. The world's tiniest boner. Can't deny it.

Speaker 1 (01:00:20):
It's you know, come on the world's tiniest boat, or
you got your shot and you can feel about that.
Talk about the little guys, I thought, well, they're not
not after Rod and Ronnie joined.

Speaker 4 (01:00:32):
Okay, I'm just thinking about little men.

Speaker 1 (01:00:34):
So yeah, yeah, I would have applied to small faces.

Speaker 4 (01:00:38):
But little men on the brain tonight for some reason.
So that's where that came from. But it deserved it.

Speaker 1 (01:00:46):
Like I mean, it's not come on, it's all times.

Speaker 5 (01:00:50):
I mean, it could be a detestable lyric, the content
still be a great song.

Speaker 4 (01:00:59):
Yeah, of course, I mean come on, yeah.

Speaker 1 (01:01:02):
So it's kind of like the Benny martin As song
Into the Night, the skin crawling subject matter of the lyrics,
but it's an amazing song and one of the most
incredible vocal performances ever recorded. You just have to acknowledge that.

Speaker 4 (01:01:22):
Is that right? One of the most incredible vocals it is,
I think so ever, absolutely, I'm not saying it was
bad again.

Speaker 1 (01:01:34):
That's why that song gets a pass. That's why it's
still fucking played on light rock radio to this day,
because the the vocal performance is so amazing. Right, you
could be singing about a six year old and still
be get a pass for the vocal performance.

Speaker 4 (01:01:55):
Well, I guess he's got a gift. Huh, he's still
we talk about him. He's alive right now. I think
I passed away, passed away the day that song was released.

Speaker 1 (01:02:05):
Beaten to death from somebody.

Speaker 4 (01:02:09):
Bludgeoned by my father.

Speaker 1 (01:02:11):
Yeah, well that wouldn't surprise me.

Speaker 4 (01:02:15):
All right. Well, if you disagree with us, we're sorry.

Speaker 2 (01:02:20):
Way it is.

Speaker 5 (01:02:22):
No one's gonna disagree with that. It'd be crazy, it'd
be absolutely nuts.

Speaker 4 (01:02:28):
All right, quick commercial break, quick yard of questions. Let's
do it.

Speaker 7 (01:02:32):
Let's get.

Speaker 5 (01:02:35):
Of questions. Yes, all right, this looks.

Speaker 4 (01:02:56):
Like rapid fire. Mister Fantasy submitted Yard of Questions.

Speaker 5 (01:03:05):
That's from around the same year as this.

Speaker 4 (01:03:07):
As this year or this week?

Speaker 7 (01:03:08):
Song?

Speaker 4 (01:03:09):
Is it traffic?

Speaker 5 (01:03:10):
Isn't dear? Mister Fantasy from around seventy one.

Speaker 1 (01:03:13):
Yeah, in that time frame.

Speaker 3 (01:03:15):
Sure.

Speaker 1 (01:03:16):
Oh, I just want to point out that Stay with
Me is in the current Rod Stewart set list. Oh wow, okay,
sandwiched between do you Think I'm Sexy? And some Guys
Have All the Luck? To close out the even does it?
He's doing Proud Mary for Christ's sake, well sung by

(01:03:37):
backup dance singers during Rod's ward growth change.

Speaker 5 (01:03:42):
So oh yeah, man, So I would imagine that's a
there's a long jam during instrumental jam going on during
the live version of this song.

Speaker 4 (01:03:51):
Probably, yeah, especially if you're changing an eighty year old man.

Speaker 1 (01:03:58):
Eighty years old, he's got twenty one songs plus an encore.

Speaker 5 (01:04:03):
And dear mister, Fantasy was nineteen sixty seven.

Speaker 7 (01:04:05):
Eg.

Speaker 1 (01:04:06):
Shit, really, I would have thought, I don't know, Winwood
was in traffic that early thought he was doing the
blind Faith thing.

Speaker 4 (01:04:14):
That's what I'm saying. Wow, all right, all right, before
we get into the yard old questions, I just want
to give a special shout out to the piss and cousins. Huh,
people send messages.

Speaker 5 (01:04:29):
Well, happy birthdays whatever, whatever the shout.

Speaker 1 (01:04:33):
Out, said a couple other people Nick encountered in Detroit. Yea,
cousins pissing on each other right in front of her.

Speaker 4 (01:04:42):
All right, mister fantasy says, no bullshit, let's go okay.
Question one, what's a historical site you would like to visit?

Speaker 5 (01:04:54):
Oh, that's nice.

Speaker 1 (01:04:56):
That we haven't visited yet, I imagine, and so mm hmmm.
The one's popping into my mind immediately is Mount Rushmore.
I gotta think that's impressive to see.

Speaker 5 (01:05:11):
That's on my list as well.

Speaker 1 (01:05:13):
Have you seen that, Andy? No, never put South Dakota.

Speaker 4 (01:05:17):
It's never never been to that part of the country.

Speaker 5 (01:05:22):
That's on my list for sure. But I would say
the Vatican would be a big one. Also, wouldn't mind
going to like Mount Vernon.

Speaker 1 (01:05:35):
I've been there.

Speaker 5 (01:05:36):
You okay, worth it? I've been to Monticello, Yeah, it
was there.

Speaker 1 (01:05:42):
Two which is nice? Hit all the spots out that way,
absolutely worth it?

Speaker 4 (01:05:51):
All right?

Speaker 1 (01:05:52):
Andy? You got an Andy, No, you don't typically answer these.

Speaker 4 (01:05:55):
But what would actually like to see something in Mexico?
But I don't know what I would like to go.

Speaker 1 (01:06:10):
See, like the first Taco bell.

Speaker 4 (01:06:15):
I wouldn't like to go see bullfighting because I wouldn't
like that, But I would.

Speaker 1 (01:06:18):
Just like to go to is that really historical?

Speaker 4 (01:06:21):
I don't know. No, I was just thinking I would
like to go see like some kind of old uh amphitheater.
I don't know. I think I would just like that
old culture of that time or so.

Speaker 5 (01:06:31):
Well, what if you what if you went to uh
it's like a wrestling.

Speaker 4 (01:06:35):
Match, I would love it. That would be great.

Speaker 5 (01:06:37):
Should door match.

Speaker 4 (01:06:40):
Something like that? Or Mount Rushmore. It's on my list,
but not not really, but I mean a mental list,
but that one also. But since you guys both said
or whatever and you both agreed, yeah, yeah, I don't know.

Speaker 5 (01:06:56):
I wouldn't mind going to the Smithsonian. Yeah in DC,
supposed to be a lot of.

Speaker 4 (01:07:02):
Cool stuff there.

Speaker 1 (01:07:05):
Get there soon before it's whitewashed, you know what I'm
talking about. It's as far as I'm gonna go with
that topic.

Speaker 4 (01:07:12):
Right now. I'm gonna get rid of Fred Sandford's truck.

Speaker 1 (01:07:16):
Just things that don't speak or depict highly enough of
America are being requested to be removed or altered. So
get there soon. You know I was at get punched
in the dick the Smithsonian.

Speaker 7 (01:07:34):
Nick.

Speaker 4 (01:07:35):
Oh, yes, you know.

Speaker 5 (01:07:38):
I was at a baseball game at the Gary RailCats
stud You know they do a thing now where they
take a video of a someone's car in the parking lot,
like they'll pick a car and it's for like a
car washed advertisement and they have the Sanford and Sung

(01:07:59):
song playing while they're showing your dirty car on the
on the jumbo trot.

Speaker 4 (01:08:05):
It's nice.

Speaker 6 (01:08:06):
Yeah, I.

Speaker 5 (01:08:08):
Wonder is that is that spontaneous every time or do
they just have one that they play? But I'm assuming
they go out in the parking lot and get new
footage every day.

Speaker 4 (01:08:17):
Who knows.

Speaker 1 (01:08:18):
People in the chat are saying that Mount Rushmore is
in fact underwhelming in real life. It's a lot smaller
than you would expect. Another dick joke in there, But.

Speaker 5 (01:08:30):
What about if they're shooting fireworks off at the top.
That's gotta be cool.

Speaker 1 (01:08:36):
I'll tell you what's not underwhelming and is totally fucking impressive,
and it I think it qualifies as it's historic. And
I don't know if either of you guys have been there.
The Biltmore estate in Asheville, North Carolina. No fucking unbelievable. Really,
the grandiosity of it is what the Vanderbilt said was there.

(01:08:58):
It's like summer home home or some shit. Okay, you
enter the property and you go up this winding road
and then you go around a curve and suddenly the
the the home is visible. You're just like, oh my god,
well fucking massive. You just tour inside of it, everything

(01:09:21):
is just it's it's unde. That is highly recommended. I
know that's like the touristy thing to do in Asheville,
and things like that can sometimes be disappointing. Case in point,
Mount Rushmore Builtmore is not that in my estimation, it
was everything as advertised in the in the the the

(01:09:45):
home itself is just like a fraction of what's on
the entire property.

Speaker 4 (01:09:50):
It's unbelievable. What about that crazy horse memorial in South Dakota.
I know it's never going to be finished in our lifetimes,
but isn't that enormous. I have no idea, No, you
have to look it up, but I think they've been
working on it for like one hundred and twenty years.
So it's a head and a hand.

Speaker 5 (01:10:08):
Is that what they mentioned in Girls, Girls Girls?

Speaker 1 (01:10:11):
I think so.

Speaker 4 (01:10:12):
I think that's what they're talking about. They were going
on a road trip on the motorcycles.

Speaker 1 (01:10:18):
Vince Neil wants to put a strip joint in the
middle of it. In the hand, Yeah, right, right, yeah.

Speaker 3 (01:10:26):
All right.

Speaker 4 (01:10:27):
Question two, if you could change your first and middle name,
what would you change.

Speaker 7 (01:10:31):
It to.

Speaker 5 (01:10:34):
A funny one?

Speaker 1 (01:10:38):
Oh Man'll based on what Jericho just sent us from
this seafood bacchanalia designed for two from this menu, I
would change my first and middle name to wear a.

Speaker 5 (01:10:51):
Blonging to a French ross.

Speaker 4 (01:10:56):
That's nice, oh man.

Speaker 5 (01:11:01):
Do you ever feel like a different first name would
suit your face better?

Speaker 4 (01:11:07):
I never thought about it. Yeah, I never thought you
have one? Uh, like you had that thought?

Speaker 5 (01:11:18):
Well, no, I think about I've thought about, not in
this context specifically, but about you know, like naming a child.

Speaker 1 (01:11:29):
Yeah, okay, you are, well, all babies to look the
same when you come out. You can't really do that.

Speaker 4 (01:11:36):
They do.

Speaker 5 (01:11:37):
But there's like a moment where you affix a name
to somebody, yeah, and you're like, is that the right
name for this person?

Speaker 1 (01:11:44):
Yeah, I've never done that.

Speaker 4 (01:11:46):
I'll take a word for it.

Speaker 1 (01:11:47):
But something I can countent on is this nonsense where
a fucking new bored somebody's like, oh, he looks just
like you know, he doesn't. He looks like every other
fucking baby. It was just born ten minutes ago. In
the history of mankind. There's no differentiation there in the
facial features. So enough of that bullshit. Let's stop that immediately.

Speaker 5 (01:12:14):
Man For a middle name.

Speaker 1 (01:12:18):
Barry Block could be perfect for me because it means
white butter.

Speaker 4 (01:12:24):
That's good.

Speaker 1 (01:12:25):
Yeah, just call me white butter.

Speaker 5 (01:12:29):
Well, I will say, rumor has it my name was
changed last minute? It was gonna be something else. Do
you guys think I look more like a Nick or
a Joshua?

Speaker 1 (01:12:45):
Oh? Nick, of course?

Speaker 4 (01:12:46):
Okay, yeah, yeah, it's a good call. No offense to
the Joshuas out there. You probably look like one Nick
looks like a Nick.

Speaker 7 (01:12:56):
Yeah.

Speaker 5 (01:12:56):
I guess.

Speaker 4 (01:12:58):
It's probably just as saying that now because we're so
used to it.

Speaker 1 (01:13:01):
Who knows, But and I think I think Nick is
definitely more fitting. I think, yeah, Joshua Joshua Pollock.

Speaker 5 (01:13:13):
Now it doesn't work even Josh Josh No that you
can't say that quick enough. Now I'm trying to think
of a middle name.

Speaker 1 (01:13:24):
Plus, you get saddled with the name josh suddenly or
not learning songs like Father Figure and uh messed those
up and alive for four of its. So you know
you don't want to be that have that hag get
out of your head.

Speaker 5 (01:13:42):
Well, anyway, we didn't really answer give.

Speaker 1 (01:13:45):
You the side eye in the middle of the performance.

Speaker 5 (01:13:50):
We didn't really answer the question, but we had a
good time.

Speaker 4 (01:13:53):
I did.

Speaker 5 (01:13:54):
Yeah, I didn't.

Speaker 4 (01:13:55):
That's a really hard one. I wish I was. Yeah,
I mean, Larry, you know what kind of nice Larry Thomas.

Speaker 5 (01:14:03):
I'm gonna go with. It's I kind of like it
when you've got someone a historical figure, say George Washington, right,
mister and missus Carver were like you are George Washington Carver.

Speaker 4 (01:14:21):
Yeah.

Speaker 5 (01:14:22):
I like that, just having the like just going first
and last historical figure name.

Speaker 1 (01:14:28):
Oh yeah, yeah, that's Vallid.

Speaker 4 (01:14:31):
Michael Jordan Jones or something.

Speaker 5 (01:14:33):
Yeah, something like that. Sure whatever, Larry Bird Jones.

Speaker 4 (01:14:39):
Bird.

Speaker 1 (01:14:41):
Red Fox Jones. Yeah, that's valid. It takes someone as.

Speaker 4 (01:14:49):
It's funny because Bird is the only one that's not
a name at all. Like, well, I guess Washingtone's ever
been called Washington, Like, yeah, because like Martin Luther, Martin
Luther King, those old first names. That works. But like
George Washington, Yeah, that's funny name middle name Washington.

Speaker 5 (01:15:08):
Yeah, I like it, all right, I don't know exactly
what historical figure. I mean, you can't lose with George Washington,
can No. Everybody knows it.

Speaker 4 (01:15:19):
Yeah, sets a tone. Abraham Lincoln Jones, Yeah, Abraham Jones.
He'd never guess what my middle name is.

Speaker 1 (01:15:34):
Richie Vallen's Jones.

Speaker 4 (01:15:38):
All right, Question three?

Speaker 5 (01:15:40):
That was only two.

Speaker 4 (01:15:42):
If you were in fucking charge and could make laws,
what law would you make? Thank you, mister fantasy.

Speaker 5 (01:15:50):
I like these questions.

Speaker 4 (01:15:51):
Yeah, you can make laws. What law would you make?

Speaker 5 (01:15:59):
I'll tell you what.

Speaker 1 (01:16:02):
Forgive me for no punching of dicks in the in
the public places.

Speaker 5 (01:16:07):
At least a minor fine or.

Speaker 1 (01:16:08):
Something, or at least an apology at least by the
guy a little caesar acknowledging that you did it.

Speaker 5 (01:16:15):
You know, I'll tell you what. We're gonna get a
little topical here. Please do forgive me everyone for bringing
this up. It's the flavor pun intended of the moment.
It would be there would be a fine levied on
every cracker barrel location that does not actually have the

(01:16:38):
sweet potato casse role on Thursday nights.

Speaker 4 (01:16:41):
Wow, that's the only day they're supposed to have it.
And then that's what it's.

Speaker 5 (01:16:45):
Listed anytime you go there and ask for it. Oh,
we don't have that tonight.

Speaker 1 (01:16:50):
Okay, Yeah, it's false advertised.

Speaker 5 (01:16:59):
As far as I can, as far as I'm concerned,
it's it's mere hearsay.

Speaker 1 (01:17:04):
You've never seen it.

Speaker 5 (01:17:05):
Has anyone ever seen it?

Speaker 1 (01:17:06):
I've never heard. I've only been there for breakfast. I've
never done a lunch or a dinner.

Speaker 5 (01:17:12):
At crack Brow. Oh you never had their dumplings, I
don't believe. So this is not a paid advertisement, obviously,
but those dumplings are pretty awesome.

Speaker 1 (01:17:23):
I mean, as i've as I said that real today.
A big fan of the hash browncast Room All yeah, yeah,
they do a good breakfast open they do. They know
they can cook some eggs up.

Speaker 5 (01:17:36):
Yea.

Speaker 1 (01:17:36):
I think that's the hardest thing in the world too.

Speaker 5 (01:17:38):
But nice hotcakes.

Speaker 1 (01:17:40):
Oh yeah, Sometimes that place just hits the target.

Speaker 7 (01:17:44):
Man.

Speaker 1 (01:17:47):
Oh, I guess it's my give us a law law. Okay,
I would outlaw saying you saying a baby looks like
someone until at least six months into the baby's life,

(01:18:07):
because up until that point, the baby looks like every
other human baby that's ever been born. So stop with
that orange. Oh he has your eyes and your this
and that, No, he does, and his face is smashed
in and he has like every other baby.

Speaker 5 (01:18:24):
As a giant black eyes. That's all he has at
this point.

Speaker 4 (01:18:30):
All right, well, thank you mister Fantasy for your yardo questions.
If you want to send three questions over do it
out of thunder dot com. Find that little widget send
three questions our way. Well appreciate it greatly. We got.

Speaker 1 (01:18:48):
Septembers upon us, guys.

Speaker 4 (01:18:51):
Oh yeah, when is that starts next?

Speaker 1 (01:18:53):
A week from today? The release of this episode of September.

Speaker 4 (01:18:57):
First, I was thinking we had more in August next
member first, Yeah, wow, yeah.

Speaker 1 (01:19:02):
Goodness, and it's Andy's turn, so yeah, this suck up
on me. I don't. I don't have one in the
chamber right now, oh boy. And then the other thing
is I believe there are five Mondays in September. There are.

Speaker 4 (01:19:22):
That's a first, right, it's gotta be to my recollection.

Speaker 5 (01:19:26):
Yeah wow, okay, well I would I would urge the
listeners who are who are able?

Speaker 4 (01:19:36):
There were five Mondays in September. Let's unlie there were
two years in a row.

Speaker 5 (01:19:44):
Well, I would urge the listeners who are who are available,
available to do so, and who are on that Patreon
little loaded up.

Speaker 1 (01:19:53):
Yeahmer specific selections. And again the theme of the month
is just outright horniness, and so the hornier the better.

Speaker 5 (01:20:04):
Load it up. We'll look at the end of the
list and see what you put on there.

Speaker 1 (01:20:07):
Yeah, I could use a little help this time. Is
like I say, I don't have anything ready. Previous years,
I had it months in advance. I got nothing right now,
something something old materialize. I'm sure, but I, you know,
definitely use the help. In fact, since there it's an
extra one, we should say we should reserve one of

(01:20:30):
the weeks for a listener submission.

Speaker 5 (01:20:32):
We pull a listener ont of the hat, maybe.

Speaker 1 (01:20:35):
Possibly have that listener on the show. Who knows sweeten
the pod a little bit for the theme months interesting fun.
Don't hold me to that. I'm just talking on my
ass at this point. But basically, you know, when I'm
unprepared for September and there's an extra week in September,

(01:20:57):
I need a little uh, need to prime the pump
a little bit, need to come up with something.

Speaker 5 (01:21:02):
Hopefully we can get Tom back on this year.

Speaker 1 (01:21:05):
Yeah, hopefully the fucking South shore line doesn't go haywire
on my evening commute. That screwed it up. Last time.

Speaker 4 (01:21:15):
Man, I got some work to do, all right. Well,
like they said, these fellas submit some ideas for us.
We'll take a look. You got a I got some time,
even if you don't do it for my selection, going
for their selection whole month.

Speaker 5 (01:21:31):
Yeah, I've got a couple that I'm knocking around, but
