Hello and welcome to episode one hundredand thirteen of Throwback Music Video Review
podcast, and tonight we will bereviewing Yo La Tango's Sugar Cube. Sugar
Cube is a nineteen ninety seven songby American indie rock band Yola Tango from
their album I Can Hear the HeartBeating as One. The music video was

(00:49):
directed by Phil Morrison and currently hasseventy two thousand views on YouTube. All
right, it was just released abouttwo years ago, right, Yeah,
the director's cut version. That is. What is your experience with Yola Tango?
Go ahead, gents, I'll gofirst. So I didn't know anything
about Yola Tangle until around probably nineteenninety six, nineteen ninety five, when

(01:11):
I went to the movie theaters tosee I shot Andy Warhol in Hollywood,
I think at the Sunset five orsomething like that. Yeah, and then
I noticed, you know, andthen I heard. I just heard about
it because I was like I wouldread about the you know, you read
it about in the magazines of themovie and be able to always talk about
this band Ulatanga who's playing develot Undergroundin the movie. So then I was
like, oh, that's weird.I'd like the Velvet Underground. Let me
check out this band. So Istarted checking them out and then I was

(01:33):
like, oh, they're rat like, they're so good and that through them.
That's how I found out about Pavement. That's how I found out about
Danvithl, Daniel Johnston, That's howI found out about Half Japanese. It's
kind of fitting that they're kind ofthe quintessential indie band who almost kind of
started that sound, and I gotinto all those other bands that actually probably

(01:53):
learned it from them. Yeah,their Deporaty if not, they're there.
They were all happing at the sametime, which is wild, and it's
just kind of a happy accident.And then you know, later on,
I think maybe a year, maybea couple of years later, they released
the album with the torning Alauando's HouseSaved, and I love that song.
It's like one of my favorite songsof all time. It's such a good

(02:14):
song. So no, I alwaysyou know, I got into them like
around the time when I was graduatinghigh school and just kind of so they
were kind of peaking already too.Yeah, yeah, and it kind of
like it kind of moved me frompost punk into like indie and like that
they really are recent, and thenthat's important. That's when I started development.
Before that, it was like goingthrough vinyl, and then after that

(02:36):
it got into digging CDs because alot of them, their stuff wasn't ever
released on vinyl, like a lotof the indie bands, yeah, fund
yeah, and it was easier tofind their CDs. So then I started
UCDs and just UCD bands and findingall kinds of indie bands. That's when
Warehouse started selling you c exactly beforelike actually going to a reputable, actual

(02:57):
virgin megastores, yeah, or likeyou know, an Aaron's Records or Rhino.
You know, right, it's hardto find them. Yeah, how
about you all you knew you knewfor them back then. No, No,
you saw their names on like allthose when when you said Yola Tangle,
I thought I've heard of this bandbefore, and I was thinking oh
no, it's the Del Fuegos I'mthinking about okay, but but no,
never heard Yola Tangle ever. Andthen I was like, wait, is

(03:19):
it Delemitri you No, it's not. It wasn't that either, It's it's
yeah. But yeah, like afterkind of researching about this band, they're
like, damn they go way back, crazy, right, and like it's
just crazy, Like you know,this band just eluded me. I mean
I have seen I shot any Warhol, but I had no idea that they
had a participation in it, youknow. But yeah, now like absolute

(03:40):
zero, Like I am a virgineersthis band. You know what's interesting,
you know, being from Soco.When you radio La Tango, I thought
there were like a Mexican band,right, you know, you just automatically
go in that direction, right,And I didn't really catch wind until maybe
like the late nineties early two thousands, when I had a girlfriend and she
wanted to go see a show,and when I saw them, I thing

(04:00):
like, Louis, you've seen themduring that time too. I think this
was around the two thousand and twothousand and three maybe like the and then
Nothing turns itself inside out or theSummer Sun album. I was I wasn't
sure that I wrote it down,but I saw them. I was like,
wow, the music that I like, but in an American version of
it, you know, and likethat noise because there's a lot of elements
of like shoegaze, noise, potindie rock experiment, yeah, experimental sounds

(04:24):
because they would do those ten twelveminute kind of like jam sessions almost as
a track. And then the thingthat was interesting about them too live was
like which blew my mind was likethey would switch instruments, switch instruments.
It's not only that there's only threeof them. And I was like,
wow, you know you've seen Sonicque five, right, that's a lot
of that's a lot of members.That's a full I mean I remember my
mind getting blown out when Nirvana waslike only three about three men and they

(04:46):
can make a powerful sound like yeah, you know what I mean. Yeah,
So like yeah, after seeing Nirvanaand then like oh okay, you
know it would be done, itnormalized to me the idea of a three
band member set up, like youdon't need a slash, right, yeah,
like your front who were too hasthree members? That's right? But
yeah, yeah, you don't needit. You need to slash, you
don't need a rhythm is string aroundthere. But yeah, you know that's

(05:09):
that's a fascinating thing to see.And that show that I went to,
you know, as indie as theyare, it was packed. It was
a big venue to I think itwas the l Ray even. Yeah,
it's big enough. There's a lotof good shows. Yeah, and it
was Yeah. I saw TKK thereright and it was filled. I mean,
you know, was standing room likeown, like you're next to people
around that time. We're always atthe l Race like a big wade,

(05:29):
not only clubs, clubs as wellas actual shows, right all right,
right, that Ralph's got a lotof our But you know what, I
free drinking dollars. There's a Ralph'snext next door really Clowood Park underground?
Is it still a Ralph's drink?That's fun. We'd drink there so we'd
get caught by the copy pretty good. That's funny, right because you would.
I would see their name and it'slike, ah, that's a strange,

(05:51):
like I wonder what that sounds like, you know, I mean it's
not when you're a traditional like Americanindie rock bands, but like a something
sister or something they you know,I mean, it's just like Yola tango,
what is that? It's not it'snot dismal February, Portland, February
exactly. Yeah, or like Idon't know, like ola or something like
that. And you guys know aboutwhere the name came from, right,

(06:13):
Yeah, like a conversation like thisanecdote about people who spoke Spanish and English
and they couldn't really decide who's goingto catch the flag ball. Yeah,
that's funny because I mean that story, like I never heard a story where
like you know this, this isthese were players in the early sixties,
like Richie Ashburn and stuff, andI thought, I was like, hey,
I like Richie Ashburn, he wasa Hall of Famer now. But
and then I saw Frank Thomas waslike, wait a minute, yeah,

(06:34):
Frank, yeah, test toss aroundwhite woman magnet, right, nobody he
did bust a big hurt on yeah, on Richie Ashburn because of it.
Hence termyo la tango meaning I haven'tgot I got it our yellow yellow tang
tango. Yeah. I love thatlittle anecdote there. So they must be

(06:58):
baseball fans the right to have thathigh would imagine, yeah, to even
have that to name it their bandafter that little incident. But anyway,
the band is really just them too. And of course, starting I think
in ninety two ninety three, Jamesmcnewhe now you know, he's been around.
He's like a musician's musician, joinsthe band like full time, and
he's credited in all the the album. So he's an actual the full time

(07:20):
memory because they any things too,Yeah, any great voice voice of an
angel, plays guitar, at organ, everything right, He's like all around
dude, and he played in alike incintenation of Pavement too. So's it's
weird how all this stuff kind ofcollides and Pavement. Yeah, we were
talking about Pavement earlier. Yeah,so like the kind of sound like Pavement.

(07:40):
But yeah, because great members,it was part of that original member.
Now, the other half of whyI chose is because my big love
for mister Show, Mister Show,Bob and David. I'm a huge fan.
And you guys, what are youexperienced with I think this these years
of comedy like really in my brainlike with them, and they bend still

(08:05):
usually influenced the State and the kidsin the Hall and all those like amazing
scenes in SNL was pretty good aroundthis time, you know, the Mike
Myers era. Oh yeah yeah,yeah, yeah. Looks funny because like
back then too, it's like ahouse like, oh, you know,
it just wasn't as cool as theeighties, and then I look back now
it's like it was fucking awesome.Yeah, but you know what kind of
bias that I have really weird?Right yeah, watching it again, it's

(08:28):
like this fuckingarious rockets, you know, so good. It's also like if
you you have that mindset, it'skind of a very indie mindset where you're
kind of bratty, you know,and yes and just kind of like you
know, and it just kind ofclicked with me and it kind of formed,
you know, my what I becameis really weird, you know,
my sense of humor stuff like thatat an early age, which that's a
great point because I think developed it. That's probably like late teens, early

(08:52):
twenties, mid twenties. It's likeshaping who you are. You know,
like you know, you're going toschool right meeting all these different people because
now you're out and about maybe goingto clubes, maybe going to shows,
so like, you know, youlike seeing this kind of humorous kind of
comedy, this kind of writing.It's like wow, looking back, you
know, twenty thirty years later,it's like, wow, I really shaped
the way I see the way whatI think is funny, you know,
right, what I appreciate. Yeah, mister show quotes, you know all

(09:15):
the time. It's crazy, right. I remember very clearly because I lived
in this condo next to seventh levenin La Funde, and you guys would
come over like, hey, haveyou guys seen the show? And I
would record it on on a VHS. I'm like, check this out.
And I remember lou yeah, man, because for some reason, Louis always
had cable man. Yeah, HBI had HBO. Yeah, we never
even had TV, but he alwayshad reason he had HBO and yeah I
know that show. And then andthen we would talk about him, like

(09:37):
and then we would I would playit. It was like the work the
dv but no the DVDs, right, I remember playing like this is so
you introduced me. It was toogood. It's like I've never seen anything
liking a Monty Python, you know, because it's the kids in the hall.
This stuff, well, that's Mineline. That's the thing. It's as
a kid when both my parents work, so I come home and just watch
TV whatever is on TV. Andyou know, you're watching pretty much I

(10:01):
mean not just sell like the oldguy. But back then you watch really
old shows from the fifties and thesixties and seventies on TV. You just
watch what's on TV. And thenthere would be like Monty Python late at
night, and I'm like, fuck, what the fuck is this? They're
acting like Braddy kids. It's kindof funny and kind of being dicks to
people and to either facts and stufflike that. It's it's kind of cool.
And then so then when you watchthat, and then when you watch

(10:22):
let's let's say, like The Stateor like Ben Steelshaw, like they're not
my generation, but they're just acouple of years older than me, but
they kind of act like me sortof, you know, and I would
like to be an adult like that. You can relate, right, yeah,
exactly. So then you start watchingall these shows who are kind of
doing humor that you would see thatyou already liked from the old stuff,
you know, and it's just kindof cool. Like kids on TV now

(10:46):
really don't see I mean, Iguess they see it on the internet,
you know, which is kind ofsee themselves, you know, but they're
just pretty much selling shit. Butyou know, I kind of feel like
the term ind. When I firstheard that, I didn't really get it,
you know, I don't really understandit, and I kind of have
to dig through like music and moviesand all the all the different media's mediums,
and then I realized, oh,okay, so Yolo Tango, David

(11:07):
Cross, right, babo and thatstyle of like it's not highly produced,
right, it's just kind of likewhatever works. It's almost like a what's
that word gorilla style? Yes,yes, diy. It's like they don't
care if you don't think it's funny. They know and they believe. It's
just like the music they're producing andmaking. It's like we know it's not
going to be played on K rockor whatever, right, it's just mainstream

(11:30):
ratio. Yes, So that's thatspirit, you know what I mean?
And to me that that was solike, uh and that's very enticing,
very important, very important for animpression of you in person. Right.
Yeah, it's also too like whenyou're around that time, you know,
you're in high school or whatever,you know, and you're seeing all the
different clicks, and it's like,I don't want to be like a hardcore

(11:50):
kid, a hardcore punk kid.It's too serious, Like they're never having
fun. I don't want to,you know, be like a fully goth
like kid, like because they're nothaving fun. They look they're serious,
and like, I don't want tobe like, you know, doing drugs.
I don't want to be a skinheadlike they're. So it's so militant
and serious. And then you seeIndian You're like, it's kind of free
form, you know, And whydo I need to commit? Yeah,

(12:11):
it's not necessary. I can enjoythe fruits of all these different mediums and
still have knowledge of it, participatein it. Go. That's why I've
always enjoyed, Like, you know, it's hard to lock down something,
you know, but hey, youknow you're young and like you kind of
just fall into whatever you like.So that's just the way it works,
I guess. But I think thatthe term Indy these days is completely different

(12:31):
because it's highly produced. It's it'sso crystallized, you know, sound wise
and visual, everything's done in thelap. Yeah, yeah, Indy,
you could just lost that. Yeah, Indy now is like you could just
you could do it on your phone. Everybody's sounds, it sounds. You
can make it sound pretty good toproduce where an app that's is a drum
machine and I'm an Indian now exactly. Yeah, but that's that spirit back

(12:52):
then was encapsulated in this era rightright or late eighties, early nineties,
even up to the later nineties.And it's like, you know, you
can see it like in the comedyand the music, right, but Yola
tango hates the mainstream, hates themainstream because you know, like apparently what
john Nis is lamenting in the beginningmoney they hate money, You hate money.

(13:13):
But okay, but before we geton that, that is take an
that break and we'll get back onsome pop quiz. Al right, This
time is some pop quiz. Areyou guys ready? I thought long and
hard for these I can only mate. I'm actually excited, like what would

Yeah, exactly, so or dpre Tape Calling Show, which is

off he's all shows about the elderly, and he gets calmar. It's so

(15:39):

Yeah, that would be my guesttoo. But I know how popular the
pre Tape Calling Show is, andI I like, Actually, the the

(16:00):
story of Everest. That I hatethat one. That's like, that's like
the one I don't want. Icannot. I think people were saying you
either liked it or hate it,yeah, because it's so you know,
like I can only imagine watching itbecause they have to rearrange the thimbles up,
you know. But uh, likeI let Louis have the second one.
I'll take the last. I'll takethe fourth. Number four. I
got the pre tape calling pre tapcolling show man. You guys missed the

(16:21):
mark. What's the story of Everest? It's the story no way, no
way, like when I when Iwould watch my DVDs, I'll fast forward
that. Yeah, even though thatwhole episode is great, but that bit
right, Yeah, you didn't likethat, okay, just like okay,
like the last part was funny whenhe's just standing there and then he falls
over again, that's hilarious. Butlike just the build up, it's like,

(16:45):
I get it. It might belike a Ronnie one or something like
that, like one of those runrounds. It's like like the fifties or
sixties. Yeah, because that's likejust like you know, everybody loved that
one exactly. My personal favorite isrude. You will await your foundation.
That's a great one to Yeah,that's like one of my favorite. It
was where he's in the restaurant.The very last skit is one of my
favorites in season four where they leavethe bar and they don't know how to

(17:08):
say goodbye. Oh yeah, andthey keep them being to each other.
There's something I think David Cross,actual director, that's because there's something very
in the movie about that. It'slike that was a movie all in it.
I was like, wow, that'sthat's really good, you know.
And he finds out you never gotto say goodbye. That was the payoff.
It was so good good that's howit ends up. But anyway,

(17:30):
get your Paul ears or ponchos overyour hallway closets, fellows, because it's
time for the guys. I haveto think long and arc with this one
because YouTube brain acts, Man,you always getting me here. So so
I thought, you know, sincethe video dealt with rock music and the
scenes and the genre as I thought, maybe i'll tell your knowledge on the
various obscure music genres. So thefollowing genred false. All right, hell

(17:56):
are you ready for this one?Yeah, here's no true or false.
Kitten step a derivative of dumb step, but louder and heavier on distortions of
sampledy owls and mews of cats inheat and or mating. By the way,
this genre is heavily promoted by theCanadian record label Monster Cat True or
fall style. This is a realif if I'm insane enough, I will

(18:19):
start something like that. So yeah, that's true. Sure, yeah,
you are incorrect. Sure there isa cat step and a fifth step.
These are genres that actually exist.But kitten step, I made a movie
sounds cute. Kitten steps cute?Right? How about this one called?
The genre is called escape room,characterized by trance like indie sound with intriguing

(18:41):
lyrics best exemplified by LSD xo Xo'sSick Bitch and Chungle Pussy's Trader Joe Real
fans. Oh, I don't know, don't ask me. I just make
these things up. I'm gonna sayyes because that sounds like a club where
like and you know, like howsometimes a club where a music genre gets

(19:03):
popularized because of a DJ, andthen they call it that the name of
the club. I'm gonna say yes, good reasoning, and you are correct
y al experience. This one's calledporno grind. You ready for this all
right? And over the top juvenileobsession with sex violence in the ways that
two could combine on a women's bodymusic genre. I think samples from porn

(19:26):
movies lyrics about sexual violence and grossout album are best represented by pornogrind pioneers
menstrual munchies. That is not true. That sounds real, all right,
you're wrong. True grind porn.There's this whole scene like in club culture

(19:47):
where it's like very prmal porn,starny porn and kind of like gross.
You kind of like make yourself lookkind of gross a porn star way,
so like like thick ass mustache likebeards or something or well, yeah,
you know, I love no,it's it's it's like kind of greasy looking

(20:08):
you dress kind of like kind ofweird almost kind of like going to like
porn love like a like a desertrave sort of yeah, kind of like
lingerie sort of burning man is likeI'm swimming with the sure especially that scene
kind of like that sort of thatscene but more gross, Like you like,
does one even find a show likeyou'll you'll dress up, you'll put

(20:30):
fake menstrual blood on you or somethinglike that. You said, start drooling
after after we get off the air, I'll show you someone that I think
Ryan knows to who I think isin the scene. Okay, personally from
back from back in the day,back and the porn from like the from

(20:52):
the and I thought, I knewthat's why you're here. I love it,
I love you're ready for this one. Let's try this one out.
This genre is called jockstrap, notthe band. It's a musical genre evolving
as early as two thousand and threein the Southern US, which is at
Lanta d Memphis, merging agro guitarchords associated with various high school and college
sports, infused with trap beats andcomposition sounds. Amazing. Wow, that's

(21:15):
a I want to hear some ofthat. If that's not real, I'm
gonna say that's false. Sure,Yeah, you're correct. Okay, Now
there's a genre and target. Yeah, there you go out. It's started
fucking rock anthems and you never know. Wow, are you ready for number

(21:40):
five? This genre is called lowercase. Never hear of it. I'll tell
you all about it right now.It's an extreme form of almbient minimalism,
in which very quiet sounds are amplifiedto extreme levels. For instance, recordings
of handling paper in various ways,but perhaps maybe a low, squeaky fart
that accidentally scaped you then be turnedup to ear shattering volume for a pleasure.

(22:03):
ASMR is an extreme huh. Ilike this more squeaky part. You
had to go in there until thesmalls it. Man, I do like
that idea too. I'd love tobelieve this is true. Yes, you're
gonna say it's true. Final answer, You're correct. Yeah, it's an
actual thing. Lowercase. I loveit. I love it as opposed to

(22:25):
uppercase, where he wants attention tolowercase it doesn't. But they take those
minimal sounds and they bring it likethat. I think he's ready for this
one. Let's do it, allright. This one's called span coore Okay,
all right. It's a primarily Britishmusic genre originating in the mid nineteen
nineties that uses techno beats and heavybass sounds and higher than usual tempos,

(22:45):
inspired by the rush and ecstasy tocreate a mood of self pleasure. It
gives a new meaning, of course, to beats per minute. Something that's
true because I have a couple ofthose records. You're wrong, Nope,
iday this up. That's okay,Well, okay, there's one of the
name is Yeah, there's a it'sprobably called something different, but there's also
an artist named spank Rock from Baltimore. Pretty much the music that you just

(23:08):
said is exactly what it is.Man, I didn't know it was making
up. Actually, Genres funny asthe first for the show. It has
it's a little bit more hip hop, it has like wrapping over it,
but it's pretty much like it.It's fast, but is it for it's
dancing, it's you know, it'svery sexual. Yeah, it's very very
very very sexual. Wow, that'sinteresting. All right, well we all

(23:30):
every day this has become the master. That's right. Remember the do you
remember the band c S S.Yeah, they're from like Spain or they're
Brazil. They're Brazil so yeah,yeah, they're a part of that scene
to see all these things are kindof combined it to make these music scenes,
right, because it's kind of likesexual dance. This is what I
think about. That's why I showGenres. That's not man, there's so

(23:52):
many weird ones that they actually exist, and it's like for every like little
taste of But I got that interesting. I'll take that. You take that.
I'll take that one wrong. Youtook that out because it's actually not
from England's actually from Baltimore. ABaltimore music sceame. So how about this
one? Now you're ready for thisone? This one's called strip hop?
Heard of it? I love it? Yeah. It's a music genre that
rose from the simultaneous popularity of stripjoints and hip hop in the inner city,

(24:15):
brought into vogue by DJ's and mcsof the early to mid nineteen eighties.
Any examples of strip hop acts Ididn't. I didn't can't find any.
These are just DJ's and mcs.Man, okay, strip I love
it though, a little fascire withwith the explanations. Could you're finding I
looked, I looked trust to me, I looked classic gripper talking there.

(24:38):
I love the name so much thatI hope it's true. Yes, wow,
sound it's a great one. Rightshe sold you a monorail, been
build it? I got oden uhbro, you gotta it O Brian,

(25:00):
all right, Louis, I thinkyou'll like this one. All right,
how about gabber Gabber never created inthe Netherlands in ninety nineties in protest against
overly pop based techno music, startingout as an underground anti establishment genre working
to stay as non mainstream as possible, spearheaded by acts like body lotion and

(25:21):
suns of alien. Okay, whatyear? What year? Is there a
year on this in the nineties,in the nineties, I've never heard of
it, but I'm going to sayyes, because I could see a lot
of like the early Internet people gettinginto like hating the pop sensibility of that,
especially like in Norway, and wantedto get a little bit more extreme
and on their music something go blackmetal. I'm gonna say yes, sure,

(25:44):
yes, you're correct. Yeah,Actually your reasoning is exactly that's exactly
what happened. Fucking Sherlock Holmes did. Huh. Yeah, you know he
did to break down this is thethis is the sensibilities of the culture that
time. Blah blah blah. Helawyered up on me. Yeah, receipts.

(26:04):
They'll call me the Mexican Matt Penfieldsfor I've heard a long time Matt.
You know, he knows like everythingabout music. He's like, yeah,
you start, He'll talk to theirwhole entire Wikipedia. I remember that
he had a TV show like anUSA network and yeah, like and he

(26:25):
would have he would have bands there. He had M F, M d
K. Actually really in there too. He's like a musical encyclopedia. Yeah,
yeah, that guy. That guyis legit Mexican Matt Binfield in Our
in Our Mids. Think you're readyfor this one. This genre is called
spoken Bird. Spoken Bird. It'san indie folk offshoot from the late nineteen

(26:48):
nineties. The combined traditional music dealingwith rural lifestyles and experiences with the chirps,
warbles, and cheaps of Midwestern songbirdsonly Midwestern, you get it right,
like Field Talk Birds spoken words,word spoken. My brain just went

(27:10):
to like a Jeth Throat Tull albumSecret Language of Birds. I was thinking
of, like balance of Ashian meatslike Field recordings. Oh man, I
failed strip hop, so might aswell. Yeah, I believe this is
real. Well you're actually wrong,birds. Yeah it sounds bird is the
word out spoken birds, though Iwanted to speak all the time. Birds

(27:34):
are happy every night here, ohman, Nevermore album all Right and finally
Louly you're ready for this last one. This one's called facial wave. I
heard a facial wave, never heardall right? It's a music genre that
you used reverbs, sound by itsof eighties pornography, specifically scenes of climax,
hence the name of course right mixedwith the slowed and echoed obscure R

(27:56):
and B of the eighties and earlynineties. Okay, I'm gonna say no
because this sounds like Ryan genre ofmusic that it makes himself. Wait,
you've never made the hit single notin the Eye by Versatilien. Is it
real or it's fake? Right?That you got ready rightly? Got them

(28:18):
all right for oh my worst performanceever, I did pretty well for you
killed me, got me peg likestrikes. First of all, you gotta
start these genres that I made up. Yeah, trip pops, good wave,
facial wave is one of my Ilove that. Oh it's hard to
think about those things to me nightsand nights. Yea. The one aris

(28:41):
like buying trying to buy more time, you know the recording. No,
I can't, man, start makinga discussions sometime, making a fake Wikipedia
for facial wave right now, soyou can't. The facial wave is good
it's good. It's good, butit's so deep that me, you're like,
wait, it's mixing with porn.I mean, like reasonable doubts of

(29:03):
everything. Everything is really except theabout the porn party. Anything else is
real though it's very plausible. Man. Okay, let's talk about the music
video or Yola Tango was sugar Cues. We let's talk a little bit really
quick about the connection between indie comedyindie music, because at that time a

(29:27):
lot of the indie Communians are puttingout their albums on indie labels too,
which is really cool, and Ithink that was a connection, and they
were opening up for each other anddifferent things like that, and I think
it was there. You got thecomedy boom, right, Yeah, there's
a simpatico going at around the sametime, right, Indie rock was kind
of it's it's getting it's getting upthere where it's not mainstream, but more

(29:48):
and more people are are finding outabout it going to shows. Obviously there's
always been huge fan bases, butthey're playing bigger kind of places. You
know, they're like Connan Briant wouldhave cool indie bands all that's a right,
Like even David Letterman would have himtoo, but never like the Tonight
Show. But Conna Bryant started tobring it in because he loved all comedy.
He wrote for The Simpsons. Right, So all these bands, all

(30:08):
these comedians, and again the convergenceof these these two scenes. And also
there are a lot of these comedianswent to college, so they were they
were if not if they didn't workon the college radio station, they were,
you know, listening to the collegeradio station, which usually had indie
bands on it because they would havelocal bands. So I think that was
another connection where you know, alot of the indie like comedy scene,

(30:32):
they're like they all went to kindof like really good colleges, you know,
universities and stuff like that, youknow, so I think that was
an also connection. A lot ofthese bands also went to college too.
You know, we got a smalltaste of this, but a lot of
the venues would have indie bands withcomedy, like like remember the Mbarrow that
was fun fun times, or likethe you know, like Paton was already
big, but not as big,and we would see him he's just working

(30:53):
on his material, you know,and it's like a small, little,
tiny place where a band would beplaying and he still does at the Largo
exactly. Largo would have you know, cool in the bands suit exactly,
So those two scenes really kind ofmarried, you know. Oh and then
in Fest also had Indian had acommunity, yes, exactly, and Kirk
would have that, you know,bands and and comedians. So it's always

(31:14):
been that like that together. SoI think comedian, I don't know.
I don't know either, maybe notthat I might have been pre that.
Yeah, David Cross, you know, in his tours he would always have
like a band that would open upfor him all the time, so you
tour with them. So that's kindof cool. And that's like an old
school two thing too, like that'she's happened in the sixties, like a
comedian would come out before a band. It's like that, you know.

(31:36):
So yeah, it's just it's ashow, right, it's a show.
Show. But very quickly the shoutout to the director slash producer directed by
Phil Morrison and what is he?What has he done right? So apparently
it's weird because I am the dBas well as IMDb. He's done both
right, and he's done obviously someYolow Tango several videos. Actually he did
goog Sonic Cute's Goo the video forthat. He did a bunch of Super

(31:57):
Chunk, which David us as Thatalso starred in. But then he's also
he's he directed The Junebug, whichis like an Academy Award nominated movie,
and some other movies. He dida bunch of Upright Citizens Brigade episode.
So that's what I'm saying, thecomedy and the music together. So I
thought about that show. Yeah,that's that was a good show too.
Yeah, so Phil Marrison he directedthis one. I thought, actually it

(32:21):
was gonna be one of the MisterShow directors because it kind of has that
feel, you know. I meanbasically this was an entire Mister Show skit.
Yeah, Like the music almost disappearsin my when I was watching it
originally. It's like I just startedwatching the you know, the the interactions
in the screen instead of actually listeningto music. It's like, I don't
know, it's kind of just likewent aside for the well, the production
of the video is very Mister Show. Also exacts falling off and you know,

(32:45):
freaking Bob and Crek and his wigsto god. But yeah, like
this was this is like a weirdmystery Mister Show skit that I never knew.
Same here, just really when youbrought it up. Yeah, when
you brought it up, it waslike, what, like never is it?
And it's like whoa, Yeah,that's kind of cool, right,
yeah, because you know, becauseit's it's them three, right, the
original three of you know Mister Showof cast members season two, season two

(33:09):
when when they shot this one.But anyway, it's the music video starts
off of course in classic Mister Showfashion, right, always making fun of
like the corporate America corporate Well yousee the band band playing a very drab,
you know, little seven music videothat they came up with the idea,
well, it's the most comedy troopthing because even Monty Python we do

(33:30):
stuff with corporate raiders and something likethat. It's just like one of the
most trophy things with you has todo with comedy troops. It is funny
because they're always anti you know,big business or established. Yeah, it's
so funny. So yeah, thereit's basically Yellow Tango performing in this very
drab room and you know he's playingthe drums, George's playing the drums,

(33:51):
and Iris playing the guitar and thenand James is playing, like I said,
like the was he playing on keyboardsin there that or something? An
organ an organ in a in atambourine and so you're just playing, you
know, just starting out the songand and then it cuts off to a
black and white footage. Right,it's almost like it's it's like a retro

(34:12):
art house exactly French cinema of anoffice. But you know, you can
see all the platinum records on thewall, right, they're in the music
industry, the music industry, andyou got giants and John Nison he's flanked
by Bob and David and talking toUla Tango and basically complaining how lame this
video is and do you guys hatemy family so much? And his classic

(34:32):
John is really strong, like thevery star and yeah, that would have
been great if he started busting hisBritish persona and and everything big mustache.
But yeah, John is great thoughas far as like, let's talk about
a little bit about John Nis,Like he's a you know, like all
time character actors awesome to media characteractor, very underrated. Yeah, that's

(34:55):
why David, Bob and David loveswith him because he's awesome. Man.
Yeah, he's a Swiss handy knight. Like he could be a lame guy.
You could be the butt of ajoke exactly, or he could be
like the scary fucking villain. Youyou can play a mayor leader anything.
He's a mayor of TV television.But yeah, yeah, so he's like

(35:15):
beating the band basically saying like thisis like the lamest thing I've ever seen.
You must hate my my record label, and my family because you made
this kind of crap. So you'regoing to rock school, wasn't Academy of
Rock? I want that shirt thatI want that sweater. It's so cool.
And then it zooms in into astill shot the crew drawing of Bob

(35:39):
and David, and then it becomesreal classic again. So yeah, you
got basically Bob, o and andKirk dressed up as like a rejected Kiss
member exactly or her black metal band. There's a black metal singer. And
then you got David Cross dressed uplike an eighties wet dream nightmare, like
a like a glam slash hair metal. Yeah, you look like a rejected

(35:59):
member of Gemen Hollogy and and they'rebasically the professors. Yeah, they came
up with the idea of School ofRock before school. Exactly, yeah,
exactly, this is the academy oris it again, President McKinley, Academy
of Rock. What do you choosePresident McKinley. I don't know. Maybe
that's the name of the school.Remember we were watching a kind of an
interview during the pandemic where they wereassuming the band members and David Cross.

(36:22):
They said where it was? Itwas it was a Santa Monica College.
Minae call exactly, that's where we'reactually. I was thinking, like,
why is it McKinley, just becauseit's a funny name, because he's not
read the most remarkable president. It'slike it's probably like a president. They
never named a school after maybe youknow, maybe as a maybe there is
a high school in where he couldthe New Jersey where Tango came from.

(36:45):
But what's funny is that it's supposedto be, well, they're adults,
right, everybody else are adults inthe Academy of Rock, but they diok,
a community College of Rock like that. But then you kind of get
the John Hughes high school scenes orlike passing the notes and kind of like
talking and getting to know people.It's funny that they like weave that in

(37:05):
somehow you know. Yeah, butyou know what the me as a poster
connoisseur, I really wanted that LiMaal poster up on the Yeah, right
in the class there freaking lim allof Kajaku right, never ending story like
they have a mall poster. Whoeverthe set designer that design that is huge
too. It's not like something youjust get out of a you know,

(37:25):
a smash Hits Max or Enemy.But anyway, so yeah, they're they're
like learning showmanship attitude. It's prettymuch School of Rock the movie, like,
yeah, how to do like theregular the rock and roll cliches.
Yeah, exactly, But I didn'tknow about what was it that rule where
you're supposed to have your fourth albumto be a double live one a double

(37:50):
live Yeah, I forgot what theprince that's a great name for the principle.
I don't know much. That's ashort story, fog ad principle.
I love the fact that, youknow, like that's it, We're gonna
buckle down. Bob takes off hishardness. It was his coat, right,
like his blazer blazer. Yeah,it's brilliant or he's also smoking a

(38:14):
pipe like it's a professor. Soit's a show, right, it's so
good. Oh, it's hilarious,hilarious. And then you got little scenes
where he's showing Ira from the band. He displays a Read, a crumpled
up blue red poster. He throwsthe eraser at him because apparently Lou Read's

(38:34):
not cool enough, he doesn't makeenough money for the I think that was
a big part of the academy,right, is that you have to be
this arena's rock star. I needto be a rock star now, like
indie rock band, which they are, which is the funny part. You
don't just yeah, you don't hangout a CBGB no, no, you
need number one hits a player playarena. So satirizing of course, right
the industry, I suppose it's funnybecause like, you know, just knowing

(38:59):
at least my impression of Yola Tangoas a band, like they're they're just
you know, quiet to them,sound very earth not very flamboyant, you
know, and and they just makeup for it with their talent, you
know. And then that's usually hitthe case with many bands that least they're
prolific. Yeah, and they turnout really good stuff, you know,
but they you know, they don'tthey don't compensate for the lack of you

(39:20):
know, they with their lack oftalent with a big persona. Yeah.
Do you think of a band like, let's say, like Smashing Pumpkins went
to rock school because they started offkind of Indian then they ended up becoming
very dramatic. Think they did goto I think they were like the magna
cum laudes of McKinley Academy of Rock. But you know what, there's there's
bands like that. I think thatthat I think boils down more to the

(39:43):
leader of the band, right,whereas it could be the manager of this
the studio. But I'm thinking YolaTango is more of like an everybody.
We're a band, we're a hole, right, we're unit, whereas you
know, perhaps Smashing Pumpkins it's whateverhe says. So and you know,
a lot of like musical geniuses,they kind of go crazy sometimes. And
I kind of feel like he wentthat direction. He kind of like tweaked

(40:04):
his brain a little bit. AndI'm gonna I'm gonna want a resting promotion.
Yeah, because he's done everything,He's done everything he's been everywhere,
right, so you kind of gocrazy a little bit. So, yeah,
you end up graduating Clouding from Academyof Rock. A few scenes there,
like little bits and pieces of justlike little skit touches, right,
Yeah, the professor of the collegeis hitting on one of the Cross is

(40:25):
like, hey, you know,like already puts his double arms, very
uncomfortable girl. Some some some lecturesoutdoor, some nice lectures outdoors in the
sun, and he's he's felt like, I don't know what he's talking about,
like some weird poetic thing that he'stelling his class. Of course,
you've got the what do you callhe's he's smelling, right, but instead

(40:52):
he's just practicing his clarinet. Clarinetin the back? Who wrote that bit?
Do you think the band suggested thator is it? No, that's
all that's all the mister guy.I like the way that Bob Ogenkirk is
playing it, like he's playing itlike a real professor, just dressed crazy

(41:14):
where. Yeah, in contrast toDavid Cross is like he's almost like a
like a theater teacher. That's kindof like, that's that's contrast, but
that's why it works. So welltogether. You know they can play off.
Yeah, the one's the like playingit kind of straight and the other
guys straight and theil yes, andthey can yeah, they can interchange as
well, much like you exactly.Yeah. And then yeah, there was

(41:36):
that one bit where like oh,here's a drum kit, you know,
and they start putting powder literally,you know, all the all the all
the powder would go up in theair, get gets in, he gets
the eye wise, that's right.But yeah, yeah, I thought I
was funny. Love, I lovethe note passing the Yeah, like Tripp
yes Square trip Hop was like athis peak back exactly to get a little

(41:58):
guest spot and which is maybe againanother underground kind of independent scene that's burgeoning
at that time, right, Soso they're hiding the note exactly. It's
like, you know, because ifthe professor finds out, even big trouble
because what is this bullshit? Youknow? I mean it's kind of like
that trip Hop don't listen to thoseor I said none of the top forty
exactly. You know what's weird isall the posters on the wall. But
then the one poster that I catch, which is like an indie is Fugazi.

(42:22):
Oh yeah. Yeah, I'm like, why is there a Fugazi poster?
Like Fugazi wouldn't be you know,like, yeah, they're not Arena
bad, they're fans. Do theyjust wanted to kind of insert I think
I think they just put it inthere for like a little thing, a
product placement forgotten. Maybe they paidten thousand dollars for a spot that's spot
the Yola Tango. Basically yeah,like they graduate right, yeah, you

(42:43):
know, basically that's how the videokind of concludes after all the hygienk suite.
But there's also a nice tender momentof like like you're doing it,
You've done it, you know,like they're rocking out, yeah, professor
just student kind of like you know, like that, yeah, been so
close, all the goodwill hunting,like you know, like you got it.
Yeah, it's like you were ableto grab the rock from the kung
Fu Mastery. It's kind of likethat metaphor for wait, okay, I

(43:07):
remember, like what's this, what'sthe deal with the bed in the classroom?
Taking out? He took off thelabel, the little label. I
guess that's like messing up the hotel, hotel rooms, the hotel what I
mean yes, you know, rockstar always destroys like where they're staying with
beause that's like the led Zeppelin thingwhen he's teaching you need to be able
to play guitar with the bow.Like yeah, there was that one bit

(43:27):
too, you have to be likeled Zeppelin and get a bow. So
yeah, so that was about beinga rock star. The hotel room bit
y. Yeah, you know,it takes me to that that little bit
in Flight of the Concords where theband was going to go on their little
tour and you know, like youguys going to be rock stars. You
know, the use their manager andhe's just like I used just so paranoid.

(43:49):
But the band becoming rock stars becausehe put him in the motel somewhere
and they want to ringing up thebill because the volleyball team or something like
scam them. I think they werebuying drinks. They basically treated them and
Murray was so pissed anyway, butI forgot like this is also very Flight
of the Concord, which was alittle bit later, but yeah, very

(44:09):
much so inspired absolutely that It's agood connection, that's true. Can you
think about any other more recent likewithin the last maybe fifteen twenty years,
Like that's kind of come up thatblended music with because that kind of I
mean there's always been around, butyou know, to popularize it and really
make it into make a statement inthe scene, you know, or in
the art world. Definitely, Flightof the Concords was huge. Yeah,

(44:31):
you know what, I think there'sa little bit there's a couple of bands
that got a little comedic with theirvideos. Like a video that I probably
wanted to do is like ever LongRespect that by the Foo Fighters. Yeah,
yeah, where they kind of doa whole it's very much like Manty
Python video. Yeah, yeah,ye, there's Yeah, they don't take
themselves as serious, right, They'rehaving fun. There's a couple of Blur

(44:51):
videos that are like that or veryBenny Hill right. Yeah, that aesthetic
for sure. But I think notsince like the sixties with like the Beatles
hooking up with like Peter Salders andthe Munty Python guys where they were actually
doing stuff, you know, withcomedians things like that, But recently I
don't remember anything right now, Yeah, it's not my singers hanging out with
comedians and music videos go to youknow, you can go like as recent

(45:14):
as like not recent, but likeMichael Jackson and Eddie Murphy and that one
Magic Johnson and when they're the theywere in the ancient Egypt or something.
Do you remember remember do you remember? Do you remember how about this?
You guys ever watched Metal Ocalipse.Yes, Yes, that's another huge because

(45:37):
he really plays and he plays out. He plays the music with a band
with they have the cartoon exactly pectand that was a very popular was great.
I was so into that show andin the first season and yes,
very indie as well. Yeah,both comedy and the actual cartoon itself.
So yeah, that's one I knowwhat's absolutely forgot about Metalcaipse. John c

(45:58):
Riley played out with like a lotof bands. He does play band,
but yeah, it's true. Sohe does like he does like a whole
that is kind of like a TIYeah, and it's like, yeah,
it's usually one of those clubs likethat. Yeah, I mean and to
a certain extent like Zach Galifanakis wherehe didn't play anything, Yeah, exactly,
that's part of his bits and youknow, and that's Martin Baron's playing
with bands down to Recordingeah. Sothere's always been that history right. I

(46:22):
think there's a connection. Yeah,that's for sure. It's very indie.
It's always with like indie bands andstuff like that. And like I said,
those festivals of indie music, youalways have comedians, you know what
I mean, like or even sketchesand stuff. Well they say like every
comedian wants to be a musician andeverything. Exactly. I'm sorry, Tenacious
D and again connected to mister showright, Jack of Scenes in the Hey,

(46:45):
that's right. And that's a directconnection to connection exactly. So again
music and comedy right there you goand mothers, brothers and I'm just kidding,
and they're funny. Dave Girls connectedto to that's right. He was
the death My favorite David Girl storyis that he was so ashamed that Nirvana

(47:07):
stole the base for eighties from KillingJoke, right, that he atoned for
stealing the baseline or whatever the musicfrom it Come as You Are, right,
because the baseline for Come As YouAre is almost similar from Killing Joke's
eighties, So you a tone forit with Killing Joke by drumming their entire
album for him. He did it. Yeah, Yeah, there was a

(47:28):
two thousand and five album. It'sa self titled album called Killing Joke.
He drummed and that was like,that was like Killing Jokes material. Cool
guy. Then for that, yeah, yeah, oh yeah, I guess
it's time for a break. We'llsee you. Was here on the other
side with the notable YouTube comments.Okay, it's time for the notable YouTube
like nineteen thirties answer. It waslike horses in the battle. First of

(47:52):
all, we saw it, right, there's very few. It was strange.
I was like, wow, thisis the first video that I've done
where there's in like five minutes oflooking, I was done. You were
done. It was very few.Anyway, I got two. One is
very very long, strapping boys.Here's my first one though, by Manning
Peterson two years ago. This personsays for me, the video was a
watershed moment, the point where thetrajectories of the two great promising forces of

(48:15):
post Reagan proto Trump America. Thisone's real indie rock and indie comedy intersected
and exploded into a perfect work ofart. It would have saved us.
If only, if only, ifonly, that's true, right, coinciding
that right, perfect time, rightmusic was in the comedy. But this

(48:35):
next one, my final one,is by missus Fuzzy Pooh from a year
ago, and she says, howdid I miss this for decades? I
honestly thought. I honestly thought theclosest thing to Mister Show, Yola Tanka
crossover in my life would be themonth I discovered the two simultaneously during a
dismal Portland February. Sonce for alldismal Portland February with me. I didn't
expect you other thank Mister Show crossover. Ever, what's weirder is the way

(48:58):
it takes me back to a specifictime in college. My best friend roommate
introduced me to Mister Show, andwe were staying up late to watch it
together. No HBO, no cable, just a collection of VHS tapes biled
with stuff my friend recorded when she'dbeen home, including every episode of Exactly
Like What We Did Right Like Ihad just taped it. About a week
before we started watching Mister Show,I'd been walking back to her apartment,
completely exhausted after spending hours in thelibrary. While cutting through the courtyard,

(49:22):
I heard green arrow playing through thewindows of the campus coffee shop. Despite
being desperate to get home and sleep, I stopped in my tracks stood listening
in the dark, and when thesong ended, I made a b line
to the shop and asked the studentBurr's Stuff what they were playing. Next
morning, I skipped a lecture,took the bus to Jackpot Records on Hawthorne,
and bought Yola Tega's I Can Hearthe Heart Beating is One Worth It?
Over the next month, I listenedto that album constantly while studying,

(49:44):
working. When I needed a breakfrom trying to learn Russian never Happened or
writing one of whatever three essays weredue that week, I'd put on Mister
Show for a time. Listening toYola Tanga or watching Mister Show were two
things I could consistently count on ifI needed to relax or lift my spirits,
and really needed both. February inPortland, Oregon was a uniquely and
deeply depressing the fourth month straight upnothing but gray skies and shitty cold rain,

(50:07):
punctuated by the occasional awful freezing rainslash ice storm. Thank you God
for March, when life began toreturn and blossom all over the city.
I know a lot of people saynostalgia's overrated, and I tend to agree,
but I think a little nostalgia oncein a while is okay, especially
when it's about things that kept yousaying when life wasn't necessarily great. And
this video captures that flavor of nostalgiaperfectly. Wow. Wow, that's like

(50:30):
a dissertation, seriously amazing. ButI do remember for a very long time
I had a breakup at that timeand Mister Shows and The Simpsons. During
that time, it was a competionshows, the Cooper Shows where I could
just watch the same over and fuckingover and would give me a chuckle and
a smile and I would get throughwhatever shit was happening in your life,
you know, yeah, same likeyou know, like there was a there

(50:51):
was a time where I had youguys, remember when I had a cocka
teal here, right, Yeah,I just try to go on my phoenix,
I know, and I'm like,what are you doing? Man?
The burn train? It a bird? Yeah yeah, I had a cock
of deal here. This is likein the mid two thousands, right,
And every lunch break I would gospend my lunch break here and put on
a Mister Show DVD. And thebird heard Misshows so much enough he knew

(51:14):
the theme song and he would literallyhe would literally whistle it to me.
It's like the coolest thing, kindof like a smokeing bird, right,
yes, exact, that's why youthought that was a real genre. Yeah,
because he Yeah, it was happeningright in front of me. But
yeah, yeah, so comfort showsis an absolute comfort show. You need
those in life, right, AndI tend to agree with this lady here

(51:36):
absolutely, But to her it's like, whoa, this is like a wet
dream because it combined two of thosecomfortings. Sometimes it happens right right and
serendipity, and it takes a fewyears to kind of look back and think,
oh wow, that's pretty cool thatit happened. Yeah, it's wild,
all right, Okay, guys,Yo Tango sugar Cube. Would you
keep it or would you throw itback? Enough gushing guys, I'm keeping

(51:58):
it, and that's let's go home. Let's go now. Of course,
man, I fucking love the twobands, the band and the video,
of course, because mister Show lovedthe comedians. I'm a huge fan.
And again, as far as comedy, I'm kind of picky with comedy,
but anything that has to do withBob O and Kirk and David Cross man
with Bob and David. What doyou feel about that on Netflix? I
love it. I watched it allthe time and I've watched it with my

(52:21):
family. Yeah, but I thinkbig part of it is the time period
that it happened, kind of thelate nineties. Yeah, made the late
nineties, and you see it,you see it. The comedy was like,
you know, you kind of getthe feel of it. The music
definitely also like adds to all ofthat. But you know there's no way
to turn it down. It's toogood and everything that you like is is

(52:42):
in one. So yes, absolutely, man, absolutely, no, Yeah,
I'm gonna keep it. Like youknow, we love the videos where
the band buys and you know it'scompletely buy in on this and it's great
committed. We didn't even talk aboutlike how they kind of connected right like
basically like they wanted to see Boboand Kirk their fans. I think,
yeah, they're a fan of it. He saw him do a stand up
he was doing stand up in LAand then they just like connected. Apparently

(53:05):
he knows of the band and theyconnected from there. You know what's funny
is when I was a kid,I was like really into David Cross and
I wasn't that into Bobo and Kirk. Yeah. Now as an adult,
I love Babbo and Kirk, andI'm not that into David Cross. Yeah
it's so weird, right, youkind of grow I grew out of David
Cross too, even a stand upit's like a stand ups just like yeah,
I don't know, it's I don'tmind it his stand up as much

(53:28):
as him just regular talking. Yeah, I don't like that as much.
Yeah, yeah, same, same, But I have a I don't really
like comedians who talk about comedy toomuch. Like that kind of annoys me.
Like I just like like it becauseit gets too like like a lesson
like something. You know, it'slike it's just something's funny. It's just
funny. You can't teach it oryou know, talk about it. You
know, it's just what it is. And I think my the comedy that

(53:51):
I do like is that kind ofBraddy is high minded, but it's dumb,
you know, like it's it's reallybasic. And you know, I
love that stuff like a lot.You know, it's too thinky, it
gets kind of a little too much. But then when it's too dumb,
it's like I don't want jackass,you know, but I love like right
in the middle. It's so perfect, you know, And yeah, that's
where they dwell and that's the indiecomedy scene, you know, like you

(54:13):
know, it's so good. Butno, this is the keeper all the
way. Yeah for me, Yeah, of course I'm keeping this one.
I'm not much of a Yola Tangolike you know, I'm not familiar with
them, but I listened, youknow, as part of research quote unquote
of me. It's just listen tojust them jamming, and they're phenomenal.
And they were just jamming in alooks like a bookstore or something, and
I thought that was really amazing.And again a three piece, this three

(54:36):
piece just like it's so full,like like I know, these iris like
a billion pedals in front of them, but still like that that's amazing.
But but yeah, as far asthis video is concerned, yeah, you
know, has is basically just tome is an extended mister show bit.
It's nice and it's a really goodone too. You know. It's not
one of their lame ones, likeyou know, story of Everest or something

(55:00):
on Vulture magazine. Now they're gonnathey're gonna be after us that is no.
But but to me, it's likeI find thrill World even more amazing.
God that that's happened, you know. But yeah, like to me,
yeah, smister Show is like ahuge part of just like my whole
sensibility and humor as well. Andyou know, Bob Wonderkirk, I'm glad
he's still like he's like bigger thanever. Yeah right, yeah, Like

(55:22):
I mean David cross to like youknow they you know, he you know,
he had arrested development going on forhim. You have to buy his
fun games movies movie. You know. I like his role. He has
like nice little roles here and they'relike good reputable actual movies. Yeah he
was. They were in the PostBob Yeah, Steven Spielberger, Yes,
Bieler movie And that's they they're youknow they And I know, like Bob

(55:43):
won Kirk cares a lot about theacting, even though how stupid the skit
would be, he actually cares aboutjust like you're putting your your your heart
into you know, into whatever you'rein the story is yeah, you know
real, Yeah, you're playing itreal, Like, I like, that's
one thing I always appreciate about BobWondenkirk too, Is that like, you
know how the matter stupid skit wouldbe someone oh you know, like oh

(56:04):
my shoes hurt that part, youknow, like that that got me man,
