Janet Jackson: Control (1986)
[00:00]in 2020 four friends decided to listen to every one of the greatest 500 albums as decided by
[00:04]rolling stone magazine this resulted in a text chain that celebrated the music excoriated the
[00:09]order and led us to making this podcast we are far from experts we promise to do almost no research
[00:13]all opinions are our own unless you disagree please sit back and enjoy becca did it better
[00:20]we're up to album oh my god i typed in 11 in my notes it's 111 but i saw 11 and i panicked i was
[00:26]like no am i in some sort of nightmare time loop here and from 1986 this is control by ms jackson
[00:35]janet if you're nasty you know sometimes i think that maybe we're not uh using this podcast to
[00:42]make enough money so i've decided to devote the part of this podcast where we do a song
[00:46]this is totally about making money um so if you listen close you might hear some subtle
[00:51]product placement okay let's do it what's up everybody welcome to
[00:55]camera

[02:55]you guys know you know me no we really have i was blown away welcome everybody this is back to a
[03:03]better uh i'm here with some guys or whatever but i listen i was blown away by the fact that we had
[03:07]sold a greeting card and then what else did we sell god we sold something and it blew my mind i
[03:15]was like are you serious somebody actually i mean if the if the duvet cover goes that's obviously
[03:21]going to be someone who russell's taking home for sure can you imagine russell you
[03:25]show up oh my god and she's like she's like so tell me more about this pocket it's like well we
[03:31]do have bed and she's like wait a minute i just bought a bed hang on you call them bed covers how
[03:37]old are you aren't you a 47 year old man you call them bed cover you want to come back to my can you
[03:43]imagine she's like come back to my place and you didn't know and then she's like oh this is my new
[03:46]duvet cover and it says back to the better and you're like what do i do do i tell her or not
[03:51]so old you're still using a mouse pad
[03:55]who uses a mouse pad anymore i don't even need those well no but man don't say that during the
[04:02]episode where we're selling our crap can you imagine that at least the woman would know when
[04:06]russ is making love to her wearing his noise canceling the headphones what he's listening to
[04:10]you know what i mean like she looks around the room and it's all beck did a better gear
[04:13]she's looking at him the best about it rob is i've got those mirrors on my ceiling so if she
[04:19]can see it she can see the back did a better design from any any position she can't miss it
[04:24]this will never there's nowhere in the room where she won't be able to see that did better
[04:29]rob's right god and then what if you were with a woman who used to date back and she actually
[04:36]tells you like i'm sorry beck did it better like that would be that would be the ultimate
[04:40]i think the ultimate would be if the person i brought home was leonardo dicaprio and he was
[04:44]wearing noise canceling headphones and listening to the podcast while we were on
[04:48]the bed cover and then he asked you how old you are and you're like well i'm sorry i'm actually
[04:53]i know i look
[04:54]25 but you know what guys i was worried that we haven't been together in like three weeks that we
[04:59]had lost our magic uh we still 100 got it we are starting out right away i mean look at this
[05:05]imagine russ you bring your date home she rips off your beck did it better lightweight sweatshirt
[05:10]for 39 dollars and 10 cents underneath you are wearing a beck did it better tank top for 22 32
[05:17]yes mini skirt size russian dolla beck did it better merchandise she tells you i'm gonna get
[05:23]something more comfortable

[05:29]it better mini skirt you fluff up your beck did it better pillows and say to her oh let me get out my
[05:35]computer for my beck did it better laptop sleeve and then you have a poster i mean that's pretty
[05:40]boring a poster and then when she's leaving in a couple hours you can pay her out of your beck did
[05:45]it better wallet that you got now be fair i don't think they actually have a beck did it better
[05:50]wallet now they do have a pin look at these socks go up there's a there's a phone wallet
[05:54]oh my god right there russell rob can you go up to the very top for the red bubble
[06:00]store i gotta say these hats here are very low quality hats i have to say i judge people if
[06:08]they have low quality baseball hat like you know like those i don't even know it's like a canvas
[06:13]type material it's not like a a baseball type hat it's not like some sort of stretch thing it's just
[06:18]like the cheapest hat you can get if i see people wearing like a cheap you know i don't even know
[06:24]would call that material but if i see those types of hats i definitely judge now can i tell you i
[06:28]personally set up every one of these items and decided what they look like and a lot of them i
[06:32]did just put up because i thought they were funny for example the dad hat there's a hat up here
[06:36]it's just called the dad i was gonna buy one for man you could definitely wear that going fly
[06:41]fishing that looks like a hat you wear fly fishing yeah i do think though one of the funniest things
[06:46]is i do love the beck did a better backpack the little kid onesie but there's also an apron like
[06:52]guys what oh
[06:54]somebody that you respect them more than getting them a beck did a better apron a podcast by four

[07:03]your podcast apron oh my god that's so great or or maybe russell's date comes downstairs
[07:10]the smell of eggs bacon waffles wafting to her nose she looks and what is russell wearing
[07:17]nothing but the beck did a better apron oh oh come on now
[07:24]well there is 91 days till christmas rob so all these things make a perfect christmas gift for
[07:29]people wouldn't they i i did notice rob that the socks only come in pairs they don't come in singles
[07:34]i don't know what that means john from rice lake will be disappointed about that
[07:42]listen if you want me to make a separate one i can just make whatever you guys want to so tell
[07:47]me but we have sold two things uh we have decided that all the money that we sell from these that
[07:52]is going to charity aaron you have picked out a charity do you want to tell us about it real quick
[07:55]sure i chose the save the music foundation which uh goes a long way to uh help help children learn
[08:02]music in school so it's a we're a music podcast we're for the children so the save the music
[08:07]organization i checked them out they are a uh highly rated charity uh they do work all across
[08:12]the united states in in the service of music education well do they do real music or just
[08:18]bullshit with computers that anyone could do like are there
[08:22]guitars or drums or anything yes they yes they they provide lessons for kids and instruments as
[08:27]i don't know their website says it's bullshit music with just computers and shit so i don't
[08:31]know i like it i think it's really good um so yeah go check out the store and we know you're
[08:36]not going to we know you're not but whatever just humorous say buy somebody for christmas
[08:41]then the money goes to charity or so i mean i've never heard of this red bubble right red
[08:46]and then bubble like bubble gum yes i'm gonna say our our t public this is a very boring story but
[08:52]public beck did a better store has been reinstated due to some emails sent by me saying that i'm very
[08:57]upset with them or uh we don't want to do business with them get rid of well but so what they did is
[09:02]that they reinstated our store but there's absolutely no way to search for beck did a
[09:06]better merch if you put in beck did a better into the search it takes you to shirts that aren't at
[09:09]ours it will not show ours so i have officially abandoned the t uh the t public site even though
[09:14]there was some cool stuff on there uh if you can hustle you can maybe find it but the red bubble
[09:18]has i mean guys a miniskirt if i see somebody wearing a beck did a better
[09:22]miniskirt my life will be made okay and i don't even care who it is aaron think about it okay so
[09:26]just maybe i'm in my birthday is coming up i think i'd look in the minute what if i did what if i
[09:32]showed up in new york wearing a beck did a better miniskirt where would we go where did you take me
[09:37]first oh i've got well i think that would call for us going to a nice drag brunch in the morning
[09:42]we would head down and see a drag brunch and then i would take you back to my house because it turns
[09:47]out i made 10 bets on various football games that you didn't know about when you showed up and i
[09:52]have to find out only that i've broken even i've broken totally even on the day and essentially
[09:57]wasted my time and money so listen i got three guys here i've got matt in minneapolis matt how
[10:02]are you doing today uh good my phone just buzzed me and said uh it's time for bed so you know i'm
[10:09]doing great right now doing great energy uh i've got matt i've got russell in minnesota russell how
[10:15]are you doing today this is a podcast about control my control control of what i say control of when i
[10:22]in this episode i'm gonna do it my way my way my way i was gonna say i love that song by old blue
[10:31]eyes another guy with a famously huge hog i love those stories then again oh yeah apparently he was
[10:38]like tiny guy what was his what was his uh somebody in the biography about him said that he was like
[10:43]98 pounds and like five of those were just dick
[10:46]like
[10:46]unlike my life where we have a
[10:52]we have a text chain among friends where they two bad parts of this they emailed out these
[10:57]vegetarian sausages that were these little short gray and they looked those looked pretty awful
[11:02]they looked awful and somebody sent it out saying oh this is rob's penis and you know what the worst
[11:06]part is it literally looked exactly like my penis i was blown away they're like these short
[11:12]post those on instagram or not yes i'm going to actually these short little stubby gray things
[11:16]they looked exactly like an uncircumcised penis it was it was blew my mind
[11:22]but what's the deal with those like you're the package is supposed to lay flat right but it's
[11:26]like they stored them in a they stored them vertically and like vertically so you could
[11:29]display them and everything just kind of shrunk down not cold enough either like i don't think
[11:34]the storage there is is right i wouldn't eat those i mean it's not meat so what does it matter
[11:39]yeah i don't know imagine being able to store it vertically anymore i mean i'm so old
[11:44]but so that would that's going to be my like i realize now this is kind of my legacy this podcast
[11:50]and and all this crap we're going to fill up landfills with that we're selling that's my
[11:54]legacy and it's just going to be me talking about how weird and small my penis is so that's great
[11:58]unlike frank sinatra who famously huge dong and i've got aaron out in california now aaron just
[12:04]admitted something to us earlier he said turns out he's colorblind and he's shocked because the
[12:09]diagnosis it came right out of the red aaron how are you doing oh just like this album cover rob
[12:14]let's let's let's wait a while before we go too far
[12:17]what
[12:18]what
[12:19]what
[12:19]what
[12:19]what
[12:20]You do one song, I'd hear about abstinence there.
[12:22]It's like, I better zero in on that one.
[12:24]That one struck a bit of a chord
[12:26]for my Bumble and online dating days.
[12:28]Listen, let's get into the voicemail.
[12:33]I just called to say...
[12:38]You're so stupid.
[12:39]You can kiss my ass.
[12:40]God, our listeners are dumb shits.
[12:42]They're just the dumbest of the dumb.
[12:43]God, our listeners are dumb shits.
[12:44]Just the dumbest of the dumb.
[12:46]Dumb, dumb, dumb, dumb, dumb, dumb, dumb, dumb, dumb shit listeners.
[12:49]Dumb, dumb, dumb, dumb, dumb, dumb, dumb, dumb, dumb shit listeners.
[12:52]You think only dumb music is made on the computer.
[12:55]Hey guys, Matt from New York.
[12:59]Just a few weeks ago, Rob went over to Ireland
[13:03]and if you recall, he came back
[13:05]sounding real whiny and scared
[13:07]about the driving conditions over there.
[13:10]So a fellow downloader and I
[13:14]decided to investigate.
[13:15]Oh my God, Russell, you know about this?
[13:16]I headed over and
[13:18]you know what?
[13:19]Rob's actually really smart.
[13:21]It is completely terrifying.
[13:23]We got in not one, but
[13:25]two trips in the first three days
[13:27]of trying to avoid these rally car racers
[13:31]through the
[13:31]country field.
[13:34]And yeah,
[13:36]just absolutely insane.
[13:38]Relatedly,
[13:41]well there,
[13:42]over in Belfast,
[13:43]we had a night out
[13:45]with a few too many
[13:47]baby Guinnesses,
[13:49]which if you don't know what I'm talking about,
[13:51]you should look it up.
[13:52]They're the cutest drink you've ever seen.
[13:54]But anyway, we had a few
[13:56]of these and got a little frisky at a Belfast pub
[14:00]and within about four seconds had a bouncer come
[14:05]and tell us to stop
[14:08]or that we would be given the boot immediately.
[14:11]So question here is middle-aged adult PDA.
[14:15]What do we think?
[14:17]Oh, that kind of frisky.
[14:20]I thought you guys were like joining the IRA.
[14:22]I get it.
[14:23]- Jesus Christ.
[14:25]- I don't know.
[14:25]- Yes, okay.
[14:28]So you're definitely wrong.
[14:28]- Had a few too many Guinnesses.
[14:29]- Our listeners are not running guns.
[14:31]- Yeah, yeah.
[14:32]- What?
[14:34]- We joined Sinn Fein and I don't know.
[14:35]Things really took a turn.
[14:37]- So clarifying,
[14:39]Matt from New York and his buddy,
[14:43]they were getting a little frisky together.
[14:45]Like they were having a good time.
[14:46]So they were slapping each other.
[14:47]On the back.
[14:48]- Yeah, I don't know.
[14:49]- Things like that.
[14:50]- All these people are going out with their roommates
[14:50]and having a great time, man.
[14:52]I don't know.
[14:53]We, I'm missing out.
[14:54]I'm not having any fun with my roommate.
[14:55]I can tell you that right now.
[14:56]- But the question was, was PDA.
[15:00]What are your thoughts?
[15:01]That's the ultimate question, right?
[15:02]- Middle-aged PDA.
[15:04]- Yeah.
[15:05]- I got to say.
[15:06]- Like among buddies or like among?
[15:08]- I'm assuming the downloader is a female friend of his.
[15:12]Knowing that.
[15:13]- Is that what downloader means?
[15:14]- Downloaders are females.
[15:16]- I don't know. - What?
[15:17]- I don't know. - I don't know.
[15:17]- I don't understand.
[15:18]- What?
[15:19]- Now I feel, now I feel stupid.
[15:20]- Yeah.
[15:21]- Matt, if your view goes a certain way on this,
[15:23]I could meet you at a public park
[15:24]within the next five minutes.
[15:25]- Oh my God.
[15:26]How about a rest stop?
[15:27]I heard that's pretty private.
[15:29]- I was actually, I once went out with a lady a few times
[15:33]and I met on one of the online dating sites
[15:35]and she was very much, she said very much,
[15:37]"I'm a public display of affection person."
[15:40]And I said, "Well, I am really not."
[15:42]- What?
[15:43]- I remember at one point we had a disagreement
[15:44]and this didn't happen, but I said like, for example,
[15:47]never hold a woman's hand walking through a Home Depot.
[15:49]I've told you guys this, right?
[15:51]- No, no, it's not.
[15:51]- Like I'm not a hand holder.
[15:52]- Wait, is it just Home Depot or is it other?
[15:55]- Any sort of like big box retailer.
[15:58]- The mall is fine, Target's fine, but not Home Depot.
[16:02]- Any sort of big box or like big building retailer,
[16:05]like if the sun is out,
[16:06]there cannot be any hand holding of out.
[16:08]- If the sun is out.
[16:09]- Can I write this down on my list
[16:10]of least surprising things I've ever heard?
[16:12]Ah, yes, number one.
[16:13]Russell does not want to hold hands
[16:14]with somebody out in public.
[16:15]What a huge shock.
[16:17]- No, it's only if the sun is out
[16:18]and it's like in a huge public place.
[16:22]- So you want to get like,
[16:24]so I'm going to assume right now
[16:26]that you think making out with somebody at a bar,
[16:28]like middle-aged person at a bar is wrong, Russell.
[16:30]- Oh, I would be horrified.
[16:31]I, there's no way.
[16:32]- See, that's what I was going to go with.
[16:33]That was going to be my line.
[16:35]Like, you know, a little hugging, snuggling up,
[16:37]maybe a little pat on the ass, right?
[16:39]That's fine.
[16:40]But like when tongue starts coming out,
[16:41]I think that's just a little bit too far.
[16:43]- That's when you got to take it
[16:44]to the single stall bathroom that they have there.
[16:46]- Right.
[16:47]- You know.
[16:47]- Yeah.
[16:48]- I think if tongue comes out in any form or fashion,
[16:51]that's the time.
[16:51]- Any type of it.
[16:53]- So I think that's actually a good idea, man.
[16:55]I think, I think making,
[16:56]so you think public display of affection is okay
[16:59]as long as there's no tongue.
[17:01]I like that.
[17:01]I think that's a good-
[17:02]- That's the line.
[17:03]That's my line.
[17:04]- And is that for everyone
[17:05]or is it specifically middle-aged?
[17:06]I mean, is there an age scale or not?
[17:09]- I think-
[17:09]- That's the other question.
[17:10]- I think when you're young,
[17:11]I think when you're young,
[17:12]I mean, Aaron, just imagine,
[17:13]I just want you to imagine this.
[17:15]Making out with somebody.
[17:17]- Sounds good.
[17:17]- Who's not your wife.
[17:18]- Sounds good.
[17:19]- I mean, unbelievable.
[17:20]I can't believe you said that.
[17:21]That sounds good.
[17:22]You sicko.
[17:23]- Nice try.
[17:24]Nice try.
[17:25]- Usually if you're at a pub.
[17:26]- Right.
[17:27]- Like this guy and his-
[17:28]- Downloader.
[17:29]- I'm still baffled that downloaders are females.
[17:31]I just didn't put that together.
[17:33]- I never caught that before.
[17:34]- Our miniskirts are flying off the shelves.
[17:36]- Usually if you're there,
[17:37]I mean, you're half in the bag, right?
[17:39]If not fully in the bag.
[17:41]- All the way.
[17:42]- And it's just not a good display anyways
[17:45]when you're drunk and getting,
[17:46]getting after yourself.
[17:47]- Yeah, and I don't like watching
[17:48]from the other side of the pub.
[17:50]Watching, watching.
[17:51]- I want to be watching right up close, right Rob?
[17:54]- Yeah.
[17:55]- I mean, my general feeling is like any kind of making out
[17:58]like, you know, nice work if you can get it.
[17:59]And if, you know, if people don't want to see it,
[18:01]they don't have to look.
[18:02]But my concern-
[18:03]- That's true.
[18:04]- My concern here is Rob is showing us the ingredients,
[18:07]the recipe for this baby Guinness.
[18:10]And it's two ounces of coffee flavored liqueur
[18:13]and a half an ounce of Irish cream liqueur.
[18:15]There's gotta be a point where like,
[18:16]you just don't feel good.
[18:18]Like I'd be concerned about someone just yakking on someone.
[18:20]- Rob's belly is grumbling just thinking about that.
[18:24]- I mean, if you're all hopped up on those,
[18:26]I'm concerned about how everybody's feeling.
[18:28]- I mean, at that point,
[18:29]you just point that out to the balancer.
[18:30]You're like, look, this is what I'm drinking.
[18:31]I need to make out now because when I go home,
[18:34]I mean, I'm going to have insane diarrhea
[18:37]and we're in a, we're in a, we're in a hospital.
[18:39]- Explosive?
[18:40]Would it be an explosive?
[18:41]- We're in a small, I hope.
[18:43]It would be mind bending.
[18:44]- Mind bending?
[18:46]- Yeah.
[18:47]- I'd come out drinking a Gatorade.
[18:49]It'd be crazy.
[18:50]- Electrolytes.
[18:53]I need those electrolytes.
[18:54]Bring them back.
[18:55]- And you know, that's the time where you got the hotel
[18:57]that was so fancy.
[18:58]It's like a barn door on the bathroom, you know?
[19:00]- The barn doors are the worst.
[19:02]I ran into another one in Nashville this last week.
[19:04]It's the worst.
[19:05]- Oh no, honey, I'm just dumping some old water
[19:06]down into the toilet, you know?
[19:08]Big excuse.
[19:10]Yeah.
[19:12]- Turn the shower on.
[19:13]Yeah.
[19:14]- The old,
[19:16]why did you take a 25 minute shower?
[19:19]Well, really it was only about a three minute shower.
[19:21]I got to say, I thought a baby Guinness was just,
[19:24]he was drinking Guinnesses that were small.
[19:25]- I thought so too.
[19:26]- And instead it was two ounces of coffee
[19:28]and a half Irish cream.
[19:30]- I just, yeah.
[19:31]I figured it was just the size of Guinness
[19:32]that they give to children.
[19:33]Like it was just like.
[19:34]- You know, I spend a lot of time in pubs there
[19:35]and I would just get the cider and the whiskey.
[19:37]Like this is, seems like you're kind of,
[19:39]I mean, honestly, this kind of seems
[19:40]like a baby shower drink.
[19:42]- Well, if he was in Belfast, yeah, yeah.
[19:46]- If he was in Belfast, that's Northern Ireland, right?
[19:48]So, I mean, he might as,
[19:49]might be just different up in Northern Ireland.
[19:51]I don't know.
[19:52]- Jenny went in classic Jenny fashion.
[19:53]She went up there and went to the Titanic museum
[19:55]and it was like, oh my God, it's so great.
[19:57]They have a hotel.
[19:58]We should stay there.
[19:59]I was like, she loves depressing shit.
[20:01]It's her favorite thing is to be depressed about things.
[20:04]I think that's why she married me, honestly.
[20:05]So, so let's get this straight, Matt.
[20:11]- That's the best jokey man all day.
[20:13]- Matt's line is no tongue, Russell's line.
[20:16]Russell's line is any contact in a public place whatsoever.
[20:18]So that's.
[20:19]- It's out, especially big box stores.
[20:22]- Especially Home Depot, especially major retailers.
[20:26]- What if it's like stuff for your,
[20:28]what if it bed, bath, beyond, same thing?
[20:30]- Same thing, big box, it's out.
[20:32]- Target?
[20:33]- Out, it's out.
[20:34]- I'm begging you to stop saying big box stores.
[20:36]I have used all my willpower.
[20:38]I really have.
[20:39]Please.
[20:41]- Hello.
[20:43]- Also, I want to say guys, how's.
[20:44]- I'm a big box.
[20:46]- You're a classic dad.
[20:47]How stressed would you be crashing a rental car three times?
[20:49]- Three times?
[20:51]- Yeah, how bad, well, how bad of a driver are you?
[20:53]- I don't know, like three crashes, right?
[20:55]Like after the second one, you switch drivers or what?
[20:58]- And I, and I, the only reason I can say this,
[21:00]the only reason I can say this,
[21:01]'cause I spent four days hammering an Audi eight
[21:05]all the way through that countryside
[21:06]and not one scratch or anything.
[21:08]So I can, so I can confidently.
[21:10]- You did it.
[21:11]- Come after this listener and their downloader,
[21:14]who's a female, it's still crazy.
[21:16]It's still mind blowing.
[21:17]- If the downloader, and I'm gonna edit this out.
[21:19]This is just for you guys.
[21:20]It's just a little secret treat.
[21:22]If this downloader, it just, you can call back in, okay?
[21:25]You don't have to say anything,
[21:27]but if the downloader was driving
[21:28]for maybe the majority of those accidents,
[21:30]just call back in and just cough.
[21:31]Just cough into the phone and we'll know.
[21:34]And then tap three, clap three times.
[21:36]- That's right.
[21:37]- You don't have to say anything.
[21:38]You don't, you don't go on the record, but we'll know.
[21:40]It's not it at all.
[21:41]Rolling going, Aaron, how's it going with you?
[21:43]- Oh, it's going great.
[21:44]You guys, it's been so long since,
[21:45]since we last spoke.
[21:47]So the last time we talked was on a Friday night
[21:49]and a lot's happened since then,
[21:51]but on the Saturday after we spoke the last time,
[21:55]that Saturday was my lucky day.
[21:57]It was absolutely my lucky day.
[21:58]- Wow. - You guys wanna hear?
[21:59]- Oh boy.
[21:59]- Do you wanna hear how my lucky day went?
[22:01]- Go ahead, Aaron.
[22:02]We're just gonna play this.
[22:03]- Okay.
[22:04]All right, so it was a Saturday
[22:06]and my sister-in-law was here to visit.
[22:08]So we got up and I said,
[22:11]oh, I like this.
[22:13]And I said, well, how about if I take Wallace to the library?
[22:15]We were trying to figure out how to spend our day.
[22:18]I said, why don't I take Wallace to the library?
[22:19]So I took Wallace over to the Montclair Library
[22:22]and literally it was my lucky day.
[22:24]On the lucky day bookshelf was the book "Dilla Time"
[22:28]by Dan Charnas.
[22:29]And the lucky day shelf at the library
[22:32]are high demand books that somehow they have there
[22:35]for no wait, no holds, nothing.
[22:37]You get to 21 day checkout, no renewals.
[22:41]You check out this book, you're committed,
[22:43]you're gonna read the book.
[22:45]It's a great book.
[22:45]I just finished it, highly recommend.
[22:48]It's about Jay Dilla and his manipulation of time,
[22:51]how he makes beats, the way he changed music.
[22:53]The whole thesis is not just that he changed hip hop music,
[22:57]but he was the first hip hop producer
[22:58]to change how other musicians,
[23:01]particularly jazz musicians, play their own instruments.
[23:03]People like Robert Glasper, Kareem Riggins.
[23:06]And one of the really excellent things about this book
[23:10]is that one of the central figures
[23:12]in Dilla's life and career was a DJ from Detroit
[23:15]named DJ House Shoes.
[23:17]I did not know about DJ House Shoes in Dilla.
[23:20]- DJ House Shoes.
[23:21]- DJ House Shoes was an contemporary of Dilla.
[23:24]He was a guy who hoarded Dilla beats
[23:26]and released some of them early in Dilla's career
[23:30]and was important in the Detroit music scene.
[23:32]So that was "Lucky Day" part number one.
[23:34]- Aaron, I'm gonna play one Dilla song under this.
[23:36]What should I play?
[23:38]- You should play "The Look of Love"
[23:41]by Slum Village from "Fantastic" volume two.
[23:44]- All right.
[23:45]- I'm gonna listen to that.
[23:46]- All right.
[23:48]- Oh, I like this.
[23:49]Gotta be that kid.
[23:51]- I think Aaron and I might have different definitions
[23:53]of a lucky day.
[23:54]- Oh, your lucky day doesn't involve going to the library
[24:00]and seeing a book?
[24:02]I mean, I really try, guys.
[24:03]I try not to make fun of him.
[24:04]I hear the audience, everybody's telling me,
[24:06]"Oh, you're so mean to Aaron.
[24:06]You're so mean to Aaron."
[24:07]He just told a story about going to the library
[24:09]and getting a book.
[24:10]- Just let it breathe.
[24:11]Just let it breathe.
[24:12]- It was a fantastic book.
[24:13]- You gotta let it get to the ground.
[24:15]- You gotta let it get to the good part.
[24:16]Remember, it's always the last part.
[24:17]It's always the good.
[24:18]You gotta let them get to the good part.
[24:19]- Yeah.
[24:20]So that was lucky day, part number one.
[24:22]Part number two, went to the donut shop.
[24:24]Got a couple of donuts, the Colonial Donuts,
[24:27]the finest in Oakland.
[24:28]And then of course, that day happened to be
[24:32]the Iowa versus Iowa State football game.
[24:34]As you guys know, I am afflicted
[24:36]with Iowa State Cyclone fandom.
[24:38]It's what my family does.
[24:39]It's what I do.
[24:40]It's the only football game
[24:41]that I get invested in every year.
[24:43]We went out to our friend's pool in Concord.
[24:45]I brought the iPad along.
[24:47]I watched the game poolside with a margarita in my hand.
[24:51]And the Iowa State Cyclones defeated the Hawkeyes 10 to seven
[24:56]in one of the ugliest but most beautiful
[24:58]world you'll ever see in your life.
[25:00]And I was there watching it with my family.
[25:03]After I got the Dilla Book and donuts.
[25:06]It was beautiful.
[25:08]- Fuck off with that.
[25:08]- Oh, such a perfect day.
[25:12]- That was it.
[25:13]So that was the day.
[25:14]And I've been waiting weeks.
[25:15]To tell you guys about my lucky day.
[25:17]Last Saturday, September 10th.
[25:19]- I cannot imagine that you say that you're watched
[25:23]that with your family.
[25:24]Like they were doing anything.
[25:25]I know, I know what happened.
[25:26]You, you, you went, you go, listen, I'll go to this thing.
[25:29]But I'm going to watch the football game.
[25:31]And everybody's like, okay.
[25:32]And then you get there to go, just let you know,
[25:33]I'm watching the game on this.
[25:34]And everybody goes, okay.
[25:35]And then you're in the corner by yourself going, yeah.
[25:38]Like your kids are playing.
[25:39]Like, why won't dad come in the pool?
[25:41]- I was in the pool.
[25:42]No, I was in the pool the whole time.
[25:44]I mean, I did.
[25:44]Eventually the iPad died and I had to finish watching it
[25:47]on my phone inside for the last two minutes.
[25:51]But the rest of the time I was in the pool, man.
[25:53]- You were in the,
[25:54]they might not have had a public bathroom for your new use.
[25:56]So you had to go in the pool at some point.
[25:57]Right?
[25:58]Right Rob?
[26:00]- Yeah, he looked like he was noodling.
[26:01]Cause he was in the pool, but his arms were on the side.
[26:03]He was watching the game like in the sun.
[26:05]He could barely see the iPad.
[26:06]He's like, this is still better than hanging out
[26:07]with my family.
[26:08]- What a dad move, Aaron.
[26:14]I love it.
[26:15]- When I was in Florida last year,
[26:17]I actually was doing research for the podcast
[26:19]and I brought my laptop down to the beach.
[26:21]What are your guys' thoughts on that?
[26:22]Electronics or computers on the beach?
[26:25]- It should be outlawed.
[26:26]You should be executed.
[26:27]- It's not a good idea.
[26:27]Not a good idea.
[26:28]No.
[26:29]- I'm against, I'm against capital punishment,
[26:31]but in that case I'd be like, okay, let it go.
[26:33]Cause you cannot bring, I mean,
[26:36]it is two totally different things.
[26:37]And then what, it's a guarantee.
[26:39]You're never going to go in the water, right?
[26:40]Cause you can't just leave the computer
[26:42]or you just cover it up with a towel and come back.
[26:44]The seagull's flying away with it.
[26:45]Like.
[26:46]- Rosie, Rosie, I'm guessing you're against
[26:49]corporal punishment too,
[26:50]but what's one thing that you would allow
[26:53]corporal punishment for?
[26:54]- We should save this for Morris Keeper Smith's album.
[26:57]- It's like people who return stuff to the grocery store,
[27:01]like multiple days later, you know?
[27:05]And like, they're like standing there
[27:06]holding up the whole line
[27:08]because they got to tell somebody a story about it.
[27:10]I don't know.
[27:11]That one maybe, that might be it.
[27:12]That might be the one.
[27:13]- That's a good one.
[27:14]- Thank you.
[27:14]- I saw a guy once at Home Depot.
[27:15]He was returning a dead tree.
[27:18]Is that the same?
[27:18]- That's allowed though.
[27:21]- Was he holding hands with anyone or not?
[27:23]- A lot of times those, like Bachman's,
[27:26]Bachman's in Minnesota here.
[27:28]You can, you can return stuff if it didn't last a year,
[27:31]it says right on there.
[27:33]And so you can literally not water it and return it.
[27:35]It looks like the dumbest thing in the world.
[27:36]- That's pretty, what kind of psychopath
[27:38]do you have to be?
[27:39]- Right.
[27:40]Well, that's true.
[27:40]I know.
[27:41]I have no idea.
[27:42]- People are so cheap, Russell.
[27:44]They'll go to no water.
[27:44]No, I mean.
[27:45]- My, my corporate pun, corporal punishment one is
[27:48]the people who have a ton of stuff in their basket
[27:51]or in a cart and do the self-checkout and take forever
[27:54]in a self-checkout line with a lot of items.
[27:56]F those people.
[27:58]I'm willing to, I'm willing to flip the switch on them.
[28:01]I could, I could get a shit.
[28:03]- Are we talking about corporal or capital?
[28:05]- I was going to say.
[28:06]- I was going to say capital, sorry.
[28:08]I'm taking it up a notch.
[28:11]- Oh, wow.
[28:14]I believe there should be corporal punishment
[28:15]for me every night.
[28:17]The only thing I like anymore.
[28:18]Listen, I'm going to strap you to this bed
[28:25]and I'm going to feed you five baby Guinnesses.
[28:29]All right.
[28:29]- That's it.
[28:30]That's all I got.
[28:31]How's it rolling going with Matt?
[28:32]- Oh, Aaron.
[28:33]So good.
[28:34]You remembered.
[28:34]- Yeah.
[28:35]Good.
[28:36]I, I've started making a list so I can remember this stuff
[28:38]cause it has been a long time since.
[28:40]Then I, half the stuff on my list,
[28:42]I don't even remember why I put it on the list.
[28:44]So I got to like blow right by it.
[28:46]I don't know.
[28:47]It's something about flashlight to see Menzies.
[28:48]I don't know what that means.
[28:49]- What?
[28:50]- No idea.
[28:52]I saw somebody driving down the road the other day
[28:56]that had a license plate that just said tequila.
[28:59]So they got a, they got a personalized license plate
[29:01]that said tequila.
[29:02]I mean, the only way that you could have a license plate
[29:05]that said tequila is if you were dry, right?
[29:07]I mean, there is no way you would even come close
[29:09]if you were driving at night,
[29:11]maybe not even having one beer of having a tequila.
[29:14]- You could have a tequila license plate.
[29:15]Would you?
[29:16]You got to think.
[29:16]- You're just asking for trouble.
[29:17]- You got to think that you were,
[29:19]oh my God, I picked the,
[29:20]is this really the best version?
[29:23]The first version that comes up?
[29:25]- Just a disaster.
[29:27]I was trying to see if Rob was,
[29:28]Rob was flailing to try to find the tequila soggy version.
[29:32]I found it from the Saturday Night Beach Nuts show
[29:35]from 1958.
[29:37]- That guy looks like Joaquin Phoenix.
[29:39]- And do you think,
[29:40]do you think the person who has a tequila vanity plate
[29:43]like drinks high eds?
[29:44]Or is it just like Cuervo every day?
[29:45]- Just any tequila that you can get there.
[29:47]- Yeah, I have no idea.
[29:49]I mean, it just seems like the biggest red flag in the world.
[29:52]I don't know why you'd do that.
[29:54]I, yeah.
[29:55]- And you stopped the song before they said tequila.
[30:00]- Okay, fine.
[30:01]- Tequila!
[30:06]- There we go.
[30:07]Perfect.
[30:07]- There you go.
[30:08]- They're dancing like Pee Wee Herb in there.
[30:12]- Yeah, we should, hey, you know what?
[30:13]We should watch the Pee Wee Herman tequila dance.
[30:15]- That's another, it's a good one.
[30:19]Now I will say that the champs do have tequila
[30:22]just written on their drum, on their bass drum,
[30:24]where you would have like the Beatles or whatever.
[30:26]That makes you think that maybe their concerts
[30:28]aren't that long.
[30:29]When a band has both the band name
[30:31]and the name of a song on the drum,
[30:33]you're like, these guys can't have that many good songs,
[30:35]right?
[30:36]- Last thing, it was hanging out with a few listeners
[30:41]this past, a couple of days ago.
[30:43]Yeah, on Friday, right?
[30:45]One of them may or may not be one of my wife's friends
[30:50]that I can actually stand, but--
[30:51]- The one.
[30:52]- The one.
[30:53]I still haven't told the one yet which one they are
[30:55]and it's actually caused a little bit of a problem,
[30:57]but I'm still not gonna tell you.
[30:58]One of them may or may not have been there
[31:01]or may or may not have been her house,
[31:03]may or may not have been.
[31:04]But I think I found a new favorite thing of drinking
[31:09]is to listen to people talk about all of their,
[31:13]old friends from high school
[31:15]that they don't talk to anymore
[31:16]and they always wonder about what happened.
[31:18]Like, what happened to Michelle?
[31:19]I don't know what happened to Michelle, you know?
[31:22]And so do you guys ever sit around
[31:27]and just think about like your old friends
[31:29]that you don't talk to anymore or anything?
[31:31]Like, I feel like I don't, you know?
[31:33]Like there's people that come up randomly
[31:35]and you're like, oh yeah, that dude.
[31:36]But like, I never remember them
[31:38]until somebody brings them up.
[31:39]But it's turned into one of the great things
[31:43]in the world is to be like, you know, like,
[31:45]oh, I wonder what happened to John
[31:47]from Rice Lake, Wisconsin.
[31:48]He never calls anybody anymore.
[31:50]Things like that, right?
[31:51]- I definitely do.
[31:52]I think the most about a friend of mine named Scott
[31:55]who had the tiniest hands I've ever seen.
[31:56]And he's either-
[31:57]- What?
[31:58]- Smells like cabbage.
[31:59]- That's what you remembered him for?
[32:00]- He's either a billionaire or in jail.
[32:03]Only one of the two, only one of those two choices.
[32:06]And then my friend, Michael-
[32:08]- Hold on.
[32:08]How do you spell his last name?
[32:09]- Facebook, small hands.
[32:13]- Oh, this isn't right.
[32:15]- That's terrible.
[32:16]I shouldn't have said that.
[32:17]- I'll bleep out his last name.
[32:18]- My friend, Michael, who knew the soundtrack
[32:23]to the movie "Mulan" backwards and forwards.
[32:26]And now when we listen to the Disney playlist
[32:28]on Apple Music, I can't hear anyone else's voice
[32:30]except for Michael's voice when I hear the songs
[32:32]from "Mulan" and I haven't seen him for 20 years either.
[32:36]So yeah, it happens to me all the time.
[32:38]- I was-
[32:39]- There was a guy named Abel that was in college.
[32:41]I think he was your guy's age.
[32:43]And like Barry from "Burnsville"
[32:45]used to always talk to Abel in the dorms.
[32:47]- Barry never calls in anymore.
[32:48]I don't think he's called in-
[32:49]- No, he never calls in.
[32:49]I don't know what's going on.
[32:51]- But Barry would always talk to Abel.
[32:53]I just like, those are the people that I worry,
[32:55]wonder about, not worry about.
[32:56]I wonder about like Abel.
[32:58]What the hell is Abel up to these days and things like that?
[33:00]- I wonder about people all the time, man.
[33:02]That's one of my favorite pastimes.
[33:04]- But it was a lot of fun to sit around
[33:07]and hear about all these people that you just like,
[33:10]oh, what are they doing?
[33:11]Oh, well.
[33:13]She wasn't doing so hot.
[33:14]She had to go over to Dubai.
[33:16]- Oh no.
[33:17]- Now she's back.
[33:18]Good things like that.
[33:18]- Her hands are so much bigger now.
[33:20]Like everything's gonna be fine.
[33:21]- Yeah.
[33:22]All sorts of stuff.
[33:24]- Enhancements.
[33:25]- Hand enhancements.
[33:26]- Yeah, hand enhancements.
[33:28]- Have you heard about the lengthening
[33:32]that's going on for people who are short?
[33:34]And then like you could put-
[33:35]- During COVID, that was a big,
[33:36]they had a big outbreak of that.
[33:37]- Yeah.
[33:38]- Break their legs, right?
[33:39]- They like break their legs
[33:40]and they do like a half a spin every week
[33:43]or something so you like can gain six inches
[33:46]just by lengthening your femur.
[33:48]- Sign me up.
[33:49]- Yeah, that's crazy.
[33:50]- Let's do it.
[33:50]- That's so weird.
[33:51]- Can you imagine you show up at work post-pandemic
[33:53]and you're just taller?
[33:54]Like who wouldn't notice that?
[33:55]Who wouldn't notice that you're tall?
[33:57]I love guys who are obsessed with being like taller
[34:01]are the same as like guys who are obsessed with like,
[34:03]when I see a guy who obviously dyes their hair.
[34:06]- Their penis size and want like larger penises.
[34:08]- That's normal.
[34:09]That's actually normal stuff.
[34:10]Psychologically, that's fine.
[34:11]- Oh, okay.
[34:13]- I have a college roommate who used to give me shit.
[34:15]I'm about six foot even and he was a taller person
[34:18]and he used to give me shit saying,
[34:19]"Girls will never grow out with a guy who's under 6'2".
[34:22]- Yeah.
[34:23]- What are you guys' thoughts on that?
[34:24]- You proved me wrong, Russell.
[34:25]- I happen to remember that gentleman.
[34:26]- You did prove me wrong for many, many years, right?
[34:29]- I wouldn't put a lot of stake in most of what he said, so.
[34:32]- Yeah, whatever happened to that guy?
[34:34]- Yeah, whatever happened to that guy, right?
[34:35]- I feel like this is a show that's-
[34:36]- He doesn't even call us anymore.
[34:38]- But don't you see that?
[34:42]Don't you see a guy who like dyes their hair?
[34:44]Like I saw a guy this weekend, he dyes his hair like black,
[34:46]but it comes out as like a light brown, you know,
[34:49]you can just tell.
[34:50]And I'm like, is this really what you want?
[34:52]This is what makes you-
[34:52]- I believe it's called chestnut.
[34:53]- What if you had some nuts on your chest?
[34:59]What would they be called?
[35:00]- I was gonna say, I bought this stuff called chin nuts.
[35:03]- I did.
[35:04]I would, I reffed a football game yesterday
[35:06]in the afternoon and one of the other refs,
[35:08]this guy makes a tackle and then gets up and totally
[35:12]slides his nuts right across the other guy's face mask
[35:15]like on purpose, right?
[35:16]And the ref in the middle of the game
[35:18]and everybody could hear said,
[35:19]"If you slide your nut sack across his face mask
[35:22]"one more time."
[35:24]And it was the funniest thing that I'd ever heard.
[35:27]Like, good for you.
[35:28]That's a good description.
[35:30]- Stuff you never thought you'd say out loud.
[35:31]- High school football rules.
[35:33]- See, if that would have occurred at nighttime, Matt,
[35:35]it would have been cool.
[35:36]That shit can't happen in the daytime.
[35:38]Daytime or at bed, bath and beyond, that is out.
[35:42]- Get it out of here.
[35:45]Russell, rolling, going.
[35:46]How's it going with you, my friend?
[35:48]- Rolling, going.
[35:49]Last week, Matt, you were saying you were getting excited
[35:50]for the Viking season and you were starting
[35:52]to watch the games with your boys.
[35:54]I actually went to a game today.
[35:55]I went to the Vikings Lions game.
[35:57]I went in person.
[35:58]- Nice.
[35:59]Wow.
[36:00]Whoa.
[36:02]- I was like, you know what?
[36:03]- What event got you to actually go
[36:07]to a live sporting event?
[36:09]What happened?
[36:10]- You know what?
[36:10]I always love going to, I love going
[36:12]to events.
[36:13]I love going to new fun things.
[36:14]- You do like going to things live.
[36:15]- I go to a Vikings game maybe every couple of years
[36:18]or something like that.
[36:18]So not too often.
[36:19]I was like, they're going to be playing the Lions.
[36:21]They're playing against Dan Campbell,
[36:22]the worst coach in the league.
[36:24]We're going to win this game, right?
[36:26]So I go, and we've talked before about like,
[36:28]going to sporting events can be a real bummer if they lose.
[36:31]It's not always that fun.
[36:32]And you're like, man, this is kind of sucked, waste of money.
[36:34]You know, the team didn't play well.
[36:36]Whereas most of the time concerts are just, are good.
[36:38]But there's something about live sports
[36:40]where there's just these ups and downs.
[36:42]And swings of emotions.
[36:43]And today it happened with the Vikings.
[36:45]They were down 14.
[36:46]They came back, they were down, they came back.
[36:48]And then they ended up winning like in the last minute
[36:50]of the game.
[36:51]So it was super fun.
[36:52]- Boom shakalaka!
[36:53]- Yeah.
[36:53]- It was, it was a very tough game to watch on TV.
[36:58]I'm not going to lie.
[36:59]It was just like, well, wasted my life, you know,
[37:02]again, another three hours down the drain.
[37:04]And then it was like a sigh of relief when they actually
[37:07]scored that last touchdown.
[37:08]- But to be in the stadium when they come back
[37:10]and then they ultimately, they take the lead and they close
[37:12]out a game with the interception.
[37:13]It's just pandemonium in there.
[37:15]Like you can't get that same type of feeling at a concert.
[37:18]It's just, the ups and downs are crazy.
[37:20]So it was a great time,
[37:21]but I thought I'd share some of my experiences from the game.
[37:24]See what you guys thought of that.
[37:25]- That's good.
[37:26]The one thing I saw on TV, Russell, before I don't want to,
[37:29]hopefully this isn't taking away from your thing,
[37:31]but the one thing that was always great on those comebacks
[37:35]to watch on TV is when they cut away to like 40 year old men
[37:39]who are wearing 20 year old jerseys and they're high-fiving
[37:42]and spilling their beers all over each other.
[37:44]That is one of the greatest things to watch on TV.
[37:47]- The other thing is, and I used to be one of these sports
[37:49]fans, but I'm really no longer like if they lose, they lose.
[37:52]It doesn't, it doesn't bother me any more anyway,
[37:54]but you see all these middle-aged people that are just living
[37:57]and dying with this right now, and they're getting so angry
[38:01]and they're yelling like these coaches don't know anything.
[38:03]And they're, you know, you can see they're making motions
[38:06]with their hands.
[38:07]Like they, they know where everyone needs to be on the field.
[38:09]These guys are just idiots, you know?
[38:12]- Absolutely.
[38:12]- And it's like the people around you talk,
[38:14]like they know what's going on,
[38:15]but really all's they're doing is yelling, get him,
[38:17]get him every couple minutes.
[38:19]It's just the worst.
[38:21]- I would say we either need to run the ball more
[38:23]or pass the ball more.
[38:24]And then when they do that, they get mad.
[38:26]Like.
[38:27]- You guys didn't ask me what I would bring
[38:28]corporal punishment back for.
[38:30]I was going to go take the high road and say nothing,
[38:32]you guys, nothing is that bad that we could, we should have,
[38:35]you know, but we figured it out right here, Russell.
[38:37]Fans in the stands are yelling at coaches and refs
[38:39]because they think they know better.
[38:41]And there should be a weird place in this world
[38:44]for those people.
[38:45]- So one of the coolest parts of the game,
[38:47]I know we've had people call him before.
[38:49]- Like the back of a Volkswagen?
[38:51]- That's a weird place, sure.
[38:54]So Matt's friends had called in.
[38:55]We've had callers, this has been a while,
[38:57]but call in about the soccer goal song at,
[39:00]at the, the loons game, right?
[39:01]We discussed whether it was an Oasis or offspring
[39:04]or whoever that was, was the right.
[39:05]- Wonderwall.
[39:06]- But you know what they have for the Vikings
[39:08]when the Vikings score it's let's go crazy.
[39:11]It's Prince.
[39:11]And we talked about whether that should be a goal song,
[39:14]but that was a fantastic touchdown song.
[39:16]What do you guys think is that for a touchdown song
[39:19]in a Vikings game?
[39:19]- Perfect.
[39:20]I mean, how could you pick?
[39:21]- I think it's great.
[39:22]It's also great for tonight when we're talking
[39:23]about a Minneapolis album, that's the Minneapolis sound.
[39:26]- Yeah.
[39:27]- They don't do this part, do they?
[39:28]- Yeah.
[39:29]- Like they score it and you have to kind of wait for it
[39:31]to like, this was the part I was just singing
[39:34]during normal parts of the game.
[39:35]Then people next to me, Rob.
[39:36]- But it kind of, again, it's a Minnesota sound.
[39:40]- Everyone's great. - It's a Minnesota team.
[39:41]They're purple, all that good stuff, right?
[39:43]- It's perfect.
[39:44]- Still with the loons, they're taking Oasis,
[39:48]who is a big Man City fan and all this stuff
[39:51]from over the pond and trying to bring over here.
[39:53]Like it makes no sense.
[39:55]Makes no sense.
[39:55]Great song, but it makes no sense.
[39:57]So I love it.
[39:58]- Let's go crazy, great choice.
[40:01]- The other thing I thought was interesting here
[40:03]is after a touchdown or after a field goal,
[40:06]they put something up on the Jumbotron.
[40:07]It's called the scoring summary.
[40:09]And it has how many plays and everything,
[40:11]but it's sponsored by something.
[40:13]It is sponsored by the state of South Dakota.
[40:16]South Dakota scoring summary.
[40:18]What are your guys' thoughts about like,
[40:20]when you see state ads, like,
[40:22]hey, come to Nebraska or come to South Dakota.
[40:25]Like why is South Dakota sponsoring the scoring summary
[40:27]at the Vikings game?
[40:29]- That's wrong to me, right?
[40:31]South Dakota, guess what?
[40:32]They're not your Vikings, okay?
[40:34]Fuck off.
[40:34]You don't get to just advertise.
[40:36]- Yeah, but if you owned the Vikings,
[40:39]you're happy to take as many South Dakotas.
[40:41]- I understand.
[40:42]I understand that, but it's like-
[40:43]- I do recall some of the most rabid Viking fans I knew
[40:47]in college were South Dakotans.
[40:48]- Yeah, 'cause they got jack shit to do over there.
[40:51]- What they're all about.
[40:52]- They got jack rabbits and jack shit else to do.
[40:54]- What else, what do you want to do today?
[40:55]Oh, let's go see Mount Rushmore.
[40:56]Okay, that was great.
[40:57]What else do you want to do?
[40:58]Oh, let's go to the Badlands.
[40:59]Okay.
[41:00]- I've been to Pierce-
[41:01]- Wall Drug, Rob.
[41:02]- That's my life.
[41:03]- They got Wall Drug and they got the Corn Palace.
[41:05]- That's true.
[41:06]- Don't forget about the Corn Palace.
[41:07]- Yeah, it's all shit where you're-
[41:08]- Terry Redland, that artist.
[41:09]- When you're driving through to a better state,
[41:10]you're like, well, we got to stop
[41:11]and go to the bathroom somewhere.
[41:12]What are we going to do in South Dakota?
[41:13]- Please note that I am not joining in on this.
[41:15]I am not part of this conversation.
[41:17]As someone who is not from-
[41:18]- The only thing good about South Dakota is they can be
[41:21]like, well, at least we're not fucking North Dakota.
[41:22]You know what I mean?
[41:23]Like, if you're North Dakota,
[41:25]what do you put on your state quarter?
[41:27]Who knows?
[41:28]Who knows what's on the North Dakota state quarter?
[41:30]- Tatonka.
[41:30]- Tatonka.
[41:31]- Wait, what's on the Minnesota state quarter?
[41:33]- Oh, I assume some lakes or something.
[41:36]I don't know.
[41:38]- Cool shit.
[41:38]- A loon.
[41:39]- Oh, how about this?
[41:40]Maybe a professional sports team.
[41:41]Fuck off.
[41:42]You don't just get to say whatever you want.
[41:44]- I was just curious.
[41:45]- You know, in South Dakota, they also have a governor
[41:47]that's got some really good views.
[41:48]- Oh, God.
[41:49]- And I think she's really going somewhere.
[41:49]- Oh, God.
[41:50]- Thanks, Aaron.
[41:51]Thanks, Aaron.
[41:52]This is what you caused.
[41:53]- Another thing I noticed at the game,
[41:56]I don't know how many times you guys have been
[41:57]to US Bank Stadium.
[41:58]You know, I had a horrible concert experience there,
[42:01]but I actually got pretty good seats in the lower deck.
[42:03]That lower deck, so I could see,
[42:06]because I've now decided I will never
[42:07]sit in the upper deck there again.
[42:09]I'm too afraid of the heights.
[42:10]I'm not doing it.
[42:11]- You're a successful guy.
[42:12]Just pay a little bit more.
[42:14]It's all good.
[42:14]- Now, let me ask you, Russell,
[42:15]to buy just a single ticket to this game.
[42:17]I mean, was it a lot more to go down?
[42:19]- Did it come with a t-shirt?
[42:20]- Yeah, just one ticket, I'm sure,
[42:22]is all you got down on the lower level.
[42:23]Is that a lot, or?
[42:25]- I may have made it clear to the Vikings fan
[42:27]that I was with that we would not be buying t-shirts
[42:30]at this game.
[42:30]- Oh, no.
[42:31]- Oh, so there were two tickets.
[42:32]There were two.
[42:33]Oh, there were two tickets.
[42:34]- I love these.
[42:35]Russell's officially entered
[42:37]that stage of a relationship.
[42:39]We are not buying t-shirts at this time.
[42:41]But so one thing I noticed on the,
[42:45]in the lower deck in the chairs,
[42:46]they had armrests, the armrests flip up or down.
[42:49]What do you think I did?
[42:50]Were the armrests up in my seat,
[42:52]or were the armrests down?
[42:54]- Where are you gonna put those drinks?
[42:55]Oh, the drinks holders are in front, aren't they?
[42:57]- Up front, yeah.
[42:57]- They're in the seat in front.
[42:59]Armrests were up.
[43:00]These little armrests, everyone had them up.
[43:02]It was a great deal.
[43:03]It's kind of like arms up.
[43:07]- Armrests up.
[43:09]- There was one part of the game,
[43:10]I don't know if you guys saw this,
[43:11]where a player on the Lions had a touchdown,
[43:14]and he started kind of doing like the ravishing Rick Rude.
[43:16]- Ooh.
[43:17]- He might not have even shown it on TV.
[43:19]- No, he got a penalty for it, yeah.
[43:21]- But so they gave him a penalty.
[43:22]It was funny, 'cause right when he did it,
[43:23]I heard this middle-aged woman behind me,
[43:25]and she goes, "Oh, that's gonna be a penalty
[43:27]"for excessive celebration for gyrating."
[43:30]- Yes.
[43:31]- So what are your guys' thoughts on gyrating
[43:32]after a touchdown or a big play at a sporting event?
[43:35]- Oh, my God. - Gyrating.
[43:36]- I am a huge fan of gyrating.
[43:37]- I am a huge fan of all celebrations,
[43:39]so long as they're not in the face of the opponent, right?
[43:42]If you're just having fun with whoever,
[43:44]especially if you're a pro, right?
[43:46]You're a pro, you're getting paid to do this.
[43:48]- Yes.
[43:49]- Have at it, gyrate all you want, moon the crowd,
[43:54]use the goalposts, all that good stuff.
[43:56]I don't know, I'm for it.
[43:57]- What would your celebration be, Matt,
[43:58]if you scored a touchdown in the National Football League?
[44:00]What would your celebration style be?
[44:02]- I like the, I don't know, you know,
[44:04]like Adam Thielen likes to copy everybody else's dance
[44:07]so I'd probably just try to copy everybody else's dance
[44:10]like him, 'cause I think it's a pretty easy bet for not,
[44:13]for somebody who's not very,
[44:15]who probably is not a very good dancer himself, you know?
[44:20]I don't know.
[44:21]So I think stealing other people's bits is a good way.
[44:23]- I've always, and I've said it before,
[44:24]my sack dance would be me starting up a chainsaw
[44:27]and sawing through some logs.
[44:28]And so I tried doing it once after a big squat at a meet,
[44:31]and I can tell you, it is not camera ready.
[44:34]It does not look like a chainsaw, it looks like you're
[44:37]just like going like this, like in a weird way.
[44:39]You need to really like show that you're starting
[44:41]the chainsaw and then move it through.
[44:44]That would be my dance.
[44:44]- The last thing I wanted to share about the game.
[44:48]So we were talking about fans you can't stand.
[44:50]I have a way to identify these fans
[44:53]before you even start watching the game.
[44:55]There's one characteristic about fans that if you see this,
[44:58]you know you will dislike them.
[45:00]- Let me guess, I'm gonna guess too nice of a jersey.
[45:04]Like if the jersey is too nice, I, that's fine.
[45:07]That's always a bad sign.
[45:08]Like it's crisp.
[45:08]- Nope, nope, I'm gonna go the other way.
[45:10]I'm gonna go the other way.
[45:12]They have a jersey from somebody who hasn't played
[45:14]on the team in 20 years.
[45:15]That's what I'm gonna go with.
[45:17]- What, a good Chris Walsh jersey?
[45:18]I mean, you can't go wrong with that stuff.
[45:20]- They got a jersey with their own name on it.
[45:22]- Oh, that's so fucking good, Aaron.
[45:24]Oh my God, that's so good.
[45:26]- It actually has nothing to do with the jersey or anything.
[45:28]This might just apply to people across the board.
[45:31]And I gotta watch it 'cause I feel like Rob may potentially
[45:33]have this, but it's people that have any sort of bedazzled,
[45:37]jean, back jean pocket.
[45:38]- Oh, there you go.
[45:40]- Any people that have designs on their back jean pocket,
[45:43]I can almost guarantee that I will not like them.
[45:46]- Or they wear a Flixion shirt.
[45:47]- If you can hear 'em sit down in a plastic seat,
[45:50]it sounds like they scrape when they sit down
[45:52]in a plastic seat.
[45:53]That's bad.
[45:56]- It's so strangely specific.
[45:57]- Can you imagine what it sounds like
[45:59]when you put those in the wash?
[46:00]I mean, it would be so loud.
[46:01]Like you'd be like, "Oh, I got some coins in there."
[46:03]No, no, no, those are my good Vikings jeans.
[46:06]- Yes.
[46:06]- They're totally bedazzled.
[46:10]So listen, here's the deal.
[46:12]- See how that system's working pretty good.
[46:13]- I teased it the other week.
[46:16]I've got a problem.
[46:17]Because my school has banned me from using the computer
[46:20]to do this podcast through stupid stuff, okay?
[46:23]Stupid rules.
[46:25]I've started not bringing my computer back and forth,
[46:27]which means I don't bring my bag back and forth to work.
[46:29]But here's the problem.
[46:30]I ride a bike every day, so I've got a bike helmet.
[46:34]Now I teased this last week when you saw my notes
[46:36]and it just said helmet bag, question mark.
[46:38]I don't know what to do.
[46:41]Do I get a small bag for this helmet?
[46:44]Because I have to carry it with me on the subway.
[46:45]I have to walk around with it.
[46:47]One day, Friday night, I was walking around
[46:48]until like eight at night carrying a bike helmet with me.
[46:52]Now my bike helmet looks cool.
[46:54]It's a 1000 bike helmet.
[46:55]It's got like the Le Mans cream and red and blue.
[46:59]But if you're walking around carrying a bike helmet,
[47:02]you look like a serious dork.
[47:04]So here's my question.
[47:05]Do I, A,
[47:06]a smaller backpack, put my helmet in that and carry it around?
[47:10]B, not care, just carry my helmet around?
[47:12]Or C, what I have been doing is when I'm on the subway,
[47:15]I've been attaching it to my belt buckles.
[47:17]I've been attaching it to my belt
[47:18]and having it hang off the side.
[47:20]Like I'm working on telephone poles somewhere.
[47:22]You know what I mean?
[47:23]- Is there an option to just wear the helmet all the time?
[47:25]- Oh my God.
[47:26]- Just wear the helmet on the subway.
[47:28]- You know what, I'm going to go get the helmet.
[47:29]You guys can see what I look like.
[47:30]- All right.
[47:32]- My initial impression is Rob should get
[47:34]one of those little...
[47:35]- Yeah, I mean, see, just wear the helmet.
[47:36]- Just wear that on the subway.
[47:37]- Just wear it.
[47:38]- Yeah.
[47:39]- Like the string backpacks with the Beck did it better.
[47:40]There's white, you know, you pull it,
[47:42]the cinch on it in the back.
[47:44]I think that would be perfect.
[47:45]- That's what I do.
[47:45]But then the problem is, is I was wearing it
[47:47]and the guy at work there, he goes,
[47:48]"Wow, that's a really small backpack on you."
[47:50]Which is a huge fucking insult.
[47:52]- Oh, that's true.
[47:52]- It is a normal size backpack.
[47:55]- Well, Rob, it looks like you should be driving
[47:57]Herbie the Love Bug or whatever that movie was
[47:59]back in the day with that white helmet.
[48:00]- I'm telling you, man, just wear the helmet.
[48:02]- I look like I should, my kids say,
[48:04]I look like I should be riding a horse somewhere.
[48:06]- Wait, what, aren't you carrying a fanny pack?
[48:09]You should be able to clip that to your fanny pack.
[48:12]- I don't have a fanny pack.
[48:13]- What?
[48:15]- The problem is with my fanny pack,
[48:16]the only thing I store in there are edibles
[48:18]if I'm going somewhere.
[48:19]So I can't just wear that.
[48:19]- Like, so you don't bring your computer back and forth?
[48:25]- No.
[48:26]- I mean, don't you have other stuff that you bring?
[48:27]- No.
[48:27]- Like, are you not like a...
[48:29]- No.
[48:30]- Like a charger and stuff and nothing else?
[48:31]- My computer doesn't work, I don't...
[48:33]No, I grade all of it.
[48:33]- All the papers I grade are online.
[48:35]I don't need it.
[48:35]So what do you guys think?
[48:36]Bag or do I just attach it to my belt
[48:39]so I can still play iPhone games on the train?
[48:41]- I kind of like attaching it to the belt,
[48:43]walking around with it.
[48:44]- Yeah, definitely belt.
[48:45]- Okay.
[48:46]- If you're not going to just wear it,
[48:47]I mean, I still say wear it, but otherwise belt.
[48:50]- Why, yeah, why introduce another bag?
[48:51]Why bring another thing along?
[48:53]Why have another bag or something?
[48:54]If you're not going to use it,
[48:55]just attach it to your belt.
[48:56]- All right, good.
[48:57]Well, now I know.
[48:57]The three coolest guys I know are telling me to do something.
[48:59]So I got to listen to them.
[49:00]I mean, that's...
[49:01]- Helmet bag, question mark?
[49:04]- Listen, there's some people
[49:05]who've been on tenterhooks waiting for that.
[49:06]- Let's talk about the helmet.
[49:07]- It's true.
[49:08]- Tenterhooks.
[49:09]- Oh yeah.
[49:09]- I believe next week's episode
[49:12]might have a reference to tenterhooks as well, Rob.
[49:15]- Ooh, excellent.
[49:16]- This is the difference between my life and Russell's life.
[49:19]Because Russell's like,
[49:20]"Today I went to the Vikings game
[49:21]and I did all this fun stuff."
[49:22]But I'm like, "Hmm, where should I put this helmet
[49:24]when I'm walking around?"
[49:25]That's interesting.
[49:26]I made fun of Aaron for going to the library
[49:27]and I'm talking about the helmet.
[49:28]Listen, let's-
[49:29]- Library is awesome.
[49:30]- Let's talk about control.
[49:31]Control is 1986, and we have complained.
[49:35]We have complained on this podcast
[49:36]that the number one genre that is lacking from this list
[49:40]is pop from the 1980s.
[49:42]And this one comes in
[49:44]and puts the absolute fucking hammer down on that.
[49:47]This is quintessential 80s pop
[49:49]to the point where you do not realize
[49:52]what a juggernaut this album is.
[49:54]And I've said that before, and I've always been right.
[49:57]Listen to this.
[49:58]This is-
[49:58]This is-
[50:01]Jackson, this is their third album, right?
[50:03]It's her first album to top the Billboard 200 album chart
[50:06]in the United States.
[50:07]She released five singles.
[50:09]All five went up to the top five on the Billboard 100.
[50:13]She's the first female artist to ever have top five
[50:15]from the one album.
[50:17]It was on the top 100 for 65 consecutive weeks
[50:20]and on the top 200 for two years.
[50:23]I mean, this album was huge.
[50:25]And basically, it's a huge shift in her life.
[50:28]She's getting away from her dad, who, you know, she's like,
[50:30]I'm going to quit this, I'm not going to have you work with me.
[50:32]I'm going to go find a new person.
[50:34]And this new person hooked her up with Jimmy Jam
[50:35]and Terry Lewis out of Minneapolis.
[50:37]And basically at the same time, to rebel against her dad,
[50:40]she had married the singer, DeBarge.
[50:44]And do you know what-
[50:45]- Oh, DeBarge!
[50:46]- And she said that he was so immature
[50:48]that he was like, "I don't know what to do with you."
[50:50]And she was like, "I don't know what to do with you."
[50:52]And she was like, "I don't know what to do with you."
[50:53]And she was like, "I don't know what to do with you."
[50:55]And she was like, "I don't know what to do with you."
[50:56]And she was like, "I don't know what to do with you."
[50:57]- Oh, DeBarge!
[50:58]- And she said that he was so immature and using drugs
[51:01]and that she had never really liked him,
[51:02]but the marriage dissolved.
[51:04]And of course that affected her.
[51:05]You know what the reason was?
[51:06]- He was also from a musical family.
[51:07]Yeah, he was from-
[51:08]- Yeah, exactly.
[51:09]So very similar.
[51:10]You know what the reason was, Aaron, that they broke up?
[51:12]- I do not.
[51:13]- She said she couldn't get any sleep.
[51:14]You know why?
[51:15]There's too much at night, there's too much rhythm.
[51:27]- Yeah, DeBarge is one of the all-time great voices.
[51:29]I mean, this is one of the greatest voices, yeah.
[51:32]- That's a guy singing that, by the way.
[51:34]That blows my mind. - Yes!
[51:37]- The video, by the way, is awesome as well.
[51:38]I cannot tell you how disappointed I was
[51:40]when I downloaded,
[51:41]♪ This is the rhythm of the night ♪
[51:44]♪ Oh Lord ♪
[51:45]And it turns out that was not DeBarge.
[51:46]I was like, "Oh shoot, that sounds like a song
[51:48]that's by a guy named DeBarge."
[51:50]And so basically this whole album,
[51:53]Control, Nasty Boys,
[51:55]it's all about her breaking away
[51:56]from this whole thing.
[51:57]It was nominated for Best Album,
[52:00]and it won for Best Producer.
[52:02]So there we go.
[52:03]And like I said, recorded in Minneapolis.
[52:05]Let's get into the album with the first song.
[52:10]And Aaron, we've been doing this lately.
[52:12]The first song, guess what I'm bringing here?
[52:14]- Bring it to me.
[52:15]- And you know, a lot like the Super Bowl,
[52:17]it's a titular act here.
[52:19]- Oh!
[52:19]- Control.
[52:20]- Oh no!
[52:21]- Now this, Rob,
[52:26]this is not the first funk song of all time,
[52:29]but this is '80s funk done exactly perfect.
[52:31]This is on the one, this is funk.
[52:33]- I saw somebody describe this album as funk, pop, and disco,
[52:37]like touches of disco.
[52:38]But basically before this,
[52:40]she had been a real kind of pop ingenue.
[52:42]- Right.
[52:43]- People saw this as a shift
[52:44]to more of the independent woman phase of Janet's life.
[52:47]♪ I-N-D-E-P-E-N-D-E-N-T ♪
[52:51]Do you know what that means?
[52:52]- I can't do it again.
[52:53]I already put that in one.
[52:54]- I have to do it every time.
[52:55]- I can't help it.
[52:56]- That song got all the way up to five on the charts.
[52:58]I thought that song was an absolute banger.
[53:00]I love that.
[53:01]- It's the Minneapolis sound, right?
[53:02]You just hear it.
[53:03]You hear everything that was going on.
[53:04]- Explain that to me, Aaron.
[53:05]What do you mean by that?
[53:06]- Well, to me, it sounds like Prince, right?
[53:08]'Cause he, I don't know now actually enough
[53:11]about the relationship between Jimmy Jam,
[53:13]Terry Lewis, and Prince,
[53:14]but they were all recording around the same time
[53:17]in Minneapolis.
[53:18]And it's this funk, dance, driving rhythms,
[53:22]shimmery pop, some guitars.
[53:25]Yeah, that's to me, the sound.
[53:27]- And if you really want to get a taste of this album,
[53:28]'cause I'm gonna tell you,
[53:29]the first time you put on this album,
[53:31]it sounds dated, I think.
[53:33]I think it sounds like an album from the '80s.
[53:34]It sounds like '80s pop.
[53:36]I mean, do you know who played almost every instrument
[53:38]on this album and did the background singing?
[53:40]- Who's that?
[53:43]- It was Jimmy Jam and Terry.
[53:45]I mean, they did everything.
[53:46]There were no other.
[53:46]- Yeah, they did it all, right?
[53:47]- There were almost no other musicians on this whole thing.
[53:49]And what you need to do though,
[53:51]is to watch the videos for this album.
[53:53]The control video is nine minutes long.
[53:55]And it starts out with Janet Jackson
[53:56]literally getting in a fight with her dad.
[53:59]- Rob, any chance you could made it
[54:00]through a nine minute Janet Jackson album?
[54:02]- This one, I could.
[54:03]I tell you, until you get to this last one.
[54:05]- No, no, no.
[54:06]We're not talking about the same thing.
[54:07]- Yeah, I have great control, okay?
[54:11]It's not 'cause of some weird blood flow thing, okay?
[54:13]Where maybe it takes too long
[54:15]and actually that's just as bad, if not worse.
[54:18]Especially in a long-term relationship,
[54:20]sometimes you just don't.
[54:21]Anyway, listen, Russell.
[54:25]But the video is so good.
[54:26]When you watch the video,
[54:27]you realize Janet Jackson is insanely talented, man.
[54:31]- So real quick, I just am looking up
[54:33]Jimmy Jam and Terry Lewis.
[54:34]They all went to high school in Minneapolis.
[54:37]They didn't actually meet in class,
[54:39]but they all are from the Minneapolis area, okay?
[54:42]Jimmy Jam and Terry Lewis had a band
[54:44]that ended up opening up for Prince
[54:47]when he was touring around.
[54:48]So they were on the local scene, toured around.
[54:51]Then they kind of got into the production side of things.
[54:53]And a couple of the other bands that they were in, you know,
[54:54]other band members were pushing them
[54:56]as a producer for a few things,
[54:58]kind of all eventually made it to where they were
[55:01]both the band and the producers
[55:04]of a couple of the local artists and the local bands.
[55:07]And so then it all kind of got mish-mashed into that.
[55:10]And then they just had a whole bunch of success
[55:12]and got Janet to come work with them.
[55:15]And then that kind of really put them
[55:16]into a different stratosphere.
[55:18]- And they said that-
[55:19]- They were musicians before being producers.
[55:22]- And they said that they had to, like,
[55:24]stop Joe Jackson from sending people over
[55:26]to give advice and input.
[55:28]And like, the break from him was really,
[55:31]and like, you know, like she's singing "Control."
[55:33]She's in control.
[55:34]I mean, she said, "I used to do what my father say
[55:36]and let my mother mold me, not anymore.
[55:38]Now I'm in control."
[55:39]Like it's, it's-
[55:40]- Yeah, there's no subtext there.
[55:41]She's telling, I mean, that's like-
[55:42]- Yeah.
[55:43]- Putting it right out there.
[55:44]- And here's a joke I've been saving for a whole episode.
[55:47]And I think now is the time to drop it.
[55:49]Who would have guessed that Joe Jackson
[55:51]is the second worst Jackson, you know?
[55:54]eric laughed a little bit he got a little laugh out of that all right russell there's no way i
[56:01]could say it what i think about holding hands with you what what i think about holding hands
[56:05]with you in a home depot i think that's nasty isn't andrew jackson pretty awful too i'm editing
[56:11]all this out jackson's we could get a pair of those work gloves before we do it right
[56:16]excuse me where are your gloves we'd like to hold hands in public
[56:20]I think you're right
[56:23]The drum programming
[56:25]And the synths here
[56:25]Like put it exactly
[56:26]In the time period
[56:27]That it is
[56:28]But this is the best
[56:29]Of what was going on
[56:30]At the time
[56:30]Listen to what's
[56:31]Making the melody here
[56:32]They describe this
[56:33]On Wikipedia
[56:34]As a timpani melody
[56:35]And I was like
[56:35]Oh
[56:36]Oh you're right
[56:37]Very percussive
[56:39]I actually was reading
[56:40]That the songs
[56:42]This song
[56:42]And a few other songs
[56:43]In this album
[56:44]Were really touchstones
[56:45]For the New Jack Swing sound
[56:47]Oh there you go
[56:47]You guys know anything
[56:48]About New Jack Swing?
[56:49]A little bit
[56:50]Just from a song
[56:51]Where they sing
[56:52]I've only heard
[56:52]New Jack Swing
[56:53]Referred to
[56:54]In New Jack Swing songs
[56:55]Where they're talking
[56:56]About it
[56:56]So my understanding
[56:57]Is New Jack Swing
[56:58]Was kind of this
[56:59]Rhythmic subgenre
[57:00]Of R&B
[57:01]Where you have
[57:02]Production elements
[57:03]That are typically
[57:03]Found in hip hop
[57:05]So you've got
[57:05]Tempo and rhythm
[57:06]Which is the swing
[57:07]If you will
[57:08]You've got drum machines
[57:09]And you've got sampling
[57:10]And so this really
[57:10]Starts coming into play
[57:11]In the 80s
[57:12]And a lot of people say
[57:13]This Janet Jackson album
[57:15]Was kind of one of the
[57:16]Touchstones for New Jack Swing
[57:17]So I thought we could
[57:18]Maybe do a list
[57:19]Of the best New Jack
[57:20]Swing songs ever
[57:21]I love this
[57:22]Oh my god
[57:22]Is it New Jack Swing?
[57:23]There was like a lot
[57:24]Of backlash against
[57:25]New Jack Swing too
[57:25]But it's a great one
[57:26]And there's some great hits
[57:28]I'm excited to hear
[57:29]What we're talking about
[57:29]Don't you think
[57:30]Part of that backlash
[57:31]Though was like
[57:31]How they appeared
[57:32]Like it was such a different
[57:33]It was almost like
[57:34]Pre-boy band right?
[57:35]Like wearing the same outfits
[57:37]Kind of
[57:38]Almost a connection
[57:39]Between Motown
[57:40]And like
[57:40]New Kids on the Block
[57:41]God damn I'm smart
[57:42]Yes Rob you are smart
[57:44]So I was reading
[57:44]There was this guy
[57:45]Aaron I don't know
[57:45]If you know him
[57:46]His name's Teddy Riley
[57:47]He was from New York
[57:48]And he was a producer
[57:49]Of R&B
[57:50]And hip hop songs
[57:51]He was a teenager
[57:52]When he had his first hit
[57:53]It was Go See the Doctor
[57:55]By Cool Moe D
[57:56]Oh wow
[57:56]I don't know if you guys
[57:57]Remember that one or not
[57:58]Didn't he produce
[57:59]Blackstreet eventually too?
[58:00]Yes absolutely
[58:02]So after this hit
[58:03]He starts kind of
[58:04]Diving into this
[58:04]New Jack Swing sound
[58:06]And then Janet Jackson
[58:07]Hires Jimmy Jam
[58:08]And Terry Lewis
[58:09]To produce her album
[58:10]So it kind of
[58:10]Starts building
[58:11]But a few years later
[58:12]The first song in the list
[58:14]Is from this guy
[58:14]Riley
[58:15]In 1980-74
[58:17]In his own group
[58:18]Called Guy
[58:18]I don't know if you guys
[58:19]Remember this one
[58:20]But this is Groove Me
[58:21]From 1987
[58:22]I don't know this one
[58:27]Oh yes
[58:28]Yeah
[58:28]Yeah
[58:29]So a lot of people
[58:33]Say like this is the song
[58:34]That really sets the groundwork
[58:35]For New Jack Swing
[58:36]It's got like that beat
[58:37]Funky bass
[58:38]Harmonized vocals
[58:40]The synths
[58:41]That's the sound
[58:41]What year was this Russell?
[58:42]Is this post?
[58:43]1987
[58:44]So this is one year
[58:45]Post Janet Jackson
[58:46]One year after
[58:48]There's no doubt
[58:48]That that's a nasty boy
[58:49]Yeah they're using
[58:50]This is great
[58:51]God dang it
[58:52]And so you're right Aaron
[58:53]This guy Teddy Riley
[58:54]Formed a second group
[58:55]Blackstreet
[58:56]And he was also the guy
[58:57]Who helped formed
[58:58]Rex and Effect
[59:00]Rex and Effect
[59:01]This was one of the guys
[59:02]Who helped form that group
[59:03]He also actually went on
[59:12]I don't know if Rob's joke
[59:14]Stayed in or not
[59:14]But he went on to work
[59:15]With Michael Jackson
[59:16]On Dangerous
[59:17]Which is actually considered
[59:19]The best selling
[59:19]New Jack Swing album ever
[59:21]Dangerous
[59:22]Maybe the last New Jack Swing
[59:23]Right?
[59:23]That was like the very end
[59:24]Of New Jack Swing
[59:25]By the time Dangerous came out
[59:26]So moving forward
[59:28]A couple years here
[59:29]This is 1989
[59:30]From Don't Be Cruel
[59:32]Bobby Brown
[59:33]My Prerogative
[59:33]Check this out
[59:34]By the way
[59:38]If you heard Russell mention
[59:39]My edited out joke
[59:40]You don't know
[59:40]What I'm talking about
[59:41]The joke wasn't that bad
[59:42]I know you're thinking
[59:42]It was like really bad
[59:43]It wasn't that bad
[59:44]So my understanding
[59:47]Bobby Brown
[59:48]Prerogative
[59:49]New edition
[59:49]He leaves new edition
[59:51]In 1985
[59:52]To start a solo career
[59:53]He has a couple hits
[59:54]And then this one
[59:55]Really takes him off
[59:56]And so my understanding
[59:58]Is like
[59:58]My prerogative
[59:59]Is kind of him
[60:00]Taking on people
[60:01]Who ripped him
[60:01]For leaving new edition
[60:02]It's kind of like
[60:03]Similar to Control
[60:04]Right?
[60:04]Where he's like
[60:05]Hey I'm doing my own thing
[60:06]I'm gonna go out
[60:07]And like screw you people
[60:08]For giving me a hard time
[60:09]About it right?
[60:10]Yeah and that same thing
[60:11]Of like I was a child star
[60:12]But now I'm grown up
[60:13]It's like you know
[60:13]Britney Spears did it
[60:14]With Toxic right?
[60:15]It's that they gotta
[60:16]Like do their thing
[60:17]Where they're like
[60:17]Claiming their adulthood
[60:18]And their independence
[60:19]Can I ask you guys something?
[60:21]Do you see how
[60:22]My prerogative is spelled
[60:23]On this thing?
[60:24]Is that really how
[60:24]You spell prerogative?
[60:25]P-R-E-R-O-G-A-T-I-V-E
[60:29]Yeah I think it's
[60:30]P-R
[60:30]P-R?
[60:31]It's a word that starts
[60:33]With P-R-E-R
[60:35]I'm prerogative
[60:37]Prerogative
[60:38]Prerogative
[60:38]I mean
[60:39]I know you can be
[60:43]Pre-rogative
[60:45]And post-rogative
[60:46]But can you ever
[60:47]Just be
[60:47]Ogative?
[60:48]Rogative
[60:49]Or rogative?
[60:51]Well I think I dropped
[60:53]My rogative
[60:54]No that's mine
[60:55]Oh you're a long distance runner?
[60:58]Yeah I'm
[60:58]I'm pre
[60:59]Maybe you've heard of me
[61:00]That's my rogative
[61:01]I'm prerogative
[61:03]So
[61:04]Bobby Brown leaves
[61:05]New Edition
[61:06]And there were three
[61:07]Backup singers
[61:08]That were in New Edition
[61:09]That wanted to
[61:10]Kind of replicate
[61:11]What he had done before
[61:12]They ended up
[61:13]Forming a group called
[61:13]Bell Bib DeVoe
[61:14]This is Poison
[61:15]From 1990
[61:16]Oh man
[61:18]Oh man
[61:19]Okay
[61:21]I mean it does sound like
[61:22]All these songs
[61:23]Have the same drum track right?
[61:24]Yes
[61:25]I think that's a big part
[61:26]Of that sound though
[61:27]Yes
[61:27]It's the same drum machine Aaron
[61:29]Yeah
[61:29]This is a song that
[61:30]If you put it on for your kids
[61:31]And you sing every word
[61:33]They look at you like
[61:34]You're from another planet
[61:35]They're like
[61:35]What is this shit
[61:36]That you're listening to?
[61:37]I'm like
[61:37]Oh I've heard this song
[61:38]A million times
[61:39]That and I like big butts
[61:41]And I cannot lie
[61:41]I really
[61:42]Now can I ask you
[61:44]Russell I know you've got
[61:45]Something with this
[61:45]But can I ask you
[61:46]I sang this song
[61:47]A million times
[61:47]I know all the lyrics
[61:49]At the end
[61:50]What does he say?
[61:50]ABC
[61:52]BBD
[61:53]Do you guys know
[61:54]What I'm talking about?
[61:54]ABD
[61:56]Bell Bib DeVoe
[61:57]Listen
[61:57]ABC BBD
[61:58]BBD is Bell Bib DeVoe
[62:00]Right?
[62:00]Yeah
[62:01]East Coast Family
[62:04]Is that
[62:04]Oh I missed it there
[62:05]Okay so what are they saying?
[62:06]ABC
[62:07]I think ABC is
[62:09]There's a
[62:09]There's another
[62:10]Hip hop group
[62:11]Or another
[62:12]Group kind of
[62:13]In this genre of music
[62:14]And then BBD is
[62:15]Bell Bib DeVoe
[62:16]ABC
[62:16]Yeah ABC was
[62:17]Another bad creation
[62:18]There you go
[62:19]Well
[62:20]Then they're all part of
[62:23]The East Coast family
[62:24]That's right
[62:25]Time to die
[62:25]That's the last thing
[62:26]I ever wanted to know
[62:27]In my life
[62:27]Goodbye
[62:27]And so those guys
[62:29]Were backup singers
[62:30]With New Edition
[62:31]Their names
[62:32]Bell, Bivens, and DeVoe
[62:33]And the person
[62:34]Who actually recommended
[62:35]They do an album together
[62:36]Was Jimmy Jam
[62:37]So
[62:38]Oh no way
[62:39]So Bell Bib DeVoe
[62:40]Also had Bobby Brown
[62:41]But his name
[62:42]Wasn't in the title
[62:43]Like
[62:43]No
[62:44]Because it was
[62:45]After the New Edition
[62:46]Before Bell Bib DeVoe
[62:47]Wait so was
[62:48]Bobby Brown
[62:48]And Bell Bib DeVoe
[62:49]What?
[62:51]He was in New Edition
[62:52]But that's
[62:53]And so was
[62:54]Bell Bib DeVoe
[62:54]Yes
[62:56]But then Bobby Brown
[62:56]Left to do a solo thing
[62:58]And they changed
[62:59]Their name to
[62:59]Bell Bib DeVoe
[63:00]Yeah
[63:02]The three remaining
[63:02]Backup singers
[63:03]Formed Bell Bib DeVoe
[63:04]Way better name
[63:04]Than New Edition
[63:05]Bell Bib DeVoe
[63:06]I bet they were just waiting
[63:06]They're like
[63:07]Bell Bib DeVoe Brown
[63:08]It's too much
[63:09]We gotta get rid of
[63:09]This fucking guy
[63:10]Get him out of here
[63:11]Rob you were talking
[63:12]About the lyrics
[63:13]I thought the lyrics
[63:13]You were gonna bring up
[63:14]Which is an all-timer
[63:15]Is never trust a big butt
[63:17]And a smile
[63:17]What are you guys
[63:18]Thoughts on that
[63:18]Trusting a big butt
[63:20]And a smile
[63:20]I've always known
[63:21]Not to do it
[63:22]I just know
[63:23]It's part of our
[63:25]DNA
[63:25]You can't trust it
[63:26]That's why my wife
[63:27]Never smiles at me
[63:28]And it's good
[63:28]But here's the thing
[63:29]How would you see
[63:30]Both at the same time
[63:31]You know what I mean
[63:32]Really a butt
[63:33]Is just a smile
[63:34]That's turned sideways
[63:35]If you think about it
[63:35]That's what my dad
[63:36]Always said
[63:36]Growing up
[63:38]Next song on the list
[63:40]We're gonna go
[63:40]1990
[63:41]But I figured
[63:42]We needed to get
[63:42]Beck should deserve
[63:44]A bigger laugh
[63:44]Ever trust a big butt
[63:45]With a disco ball
[63:46]Shining on it
[63:48]We got all these
[63:50]We gotta get some musicians
[63:51]From Oakland
[63:52]So the next one
[63:53]We're gonna get is
[63:53]From 1990
[63:55]This is
[63:55]Tony Tony Tony
[63:56]Feels good
[63:57]Oh yeah
[63:58]This one's on the radio
[63:59]All the time out here still
[64:00]Raphael Sidi
[64:01]Yeah
[64:01]When I found out
[64:04]Tony Tony Tony
[64:05]Were guys
[64:07]Wait are they?
[64:09]That blows my mind
[64:11]That still blows my mind
[64:12]That blows my mind
[64:13]In 2022
[64:13]They may not even have
[64:15]Anyone named Tony
[64:16]In the group
[64:17]I'm not sure
[64:17]I'm not sure
[64:18]No they don't
[64:19]I believe
[64:19]It's a reverse
[64:20]Belvedere DeVoe situation
[64:22]The guys who produced
[64:24]Tony Tony Tony
[64:25]Also produced another group
[64:26]From Oakland
[64:27]Aaron
[64:27]We'll see if you remember them
[64:28]This group didn't make the list
[64:29]But you guys remember
[64:30]En Vogue
[64:31]Oh yeah
[64:32]Do I remember En Vogue
[64:33]En Vogue was another
[64:34]Oakland group
[64:35]That had some
[64:35]Never gonna give it
[64:36]Never gonna give it
[64:37]That's true
[64:38]That's true
[64:39]Yeah Raphael Sidiq
[64:39]Produced a lot
[64:40]Then he ended up
[64:41]Working with D'Angelo
[64:42]And he's done a bunch of hits
[64:43]I think
[64:44]I think
[64:44]I think
[64:45]I think En Vogue
[64:46]Literally taught me
[64:47]About racism
[64:48]With a song
[64:48]I think that's the first time
[64:49]I ever heard about racism
[64:50]Was through that En Vogue song
[64:52]Cause they said
[64:52]You wanna hear a song
[64:53]About racism
[64:53]Here you go
[64:54]So good
[64:55]Alright last song on the list
[64:57]For
[64:58]The best
[64:59]The best New Jack Swing songs
[65:01]This is 1991
[65:01]We've talked about this band before
[65:03]But normally we talk about
[65:04]The super low voice guy
[65:06]Instead we're gonna talk
[65:07]About their first hit
[65:08]This is Motown Philly
[65:09]Boyz II Men
[65:10]From Cool High
[65:10]I just played this
[65:11]I just played this
[65:13]From the house the other day
[65:13]It still rocks
[65:18]It turns out
[65:20]These guys got their
[65:21]First big break
[65:22]They were backstage
[65:22]At a Bell Biv DeVoe concert
[65:24]And they sang
[65:25]For Michael Bivens
[65:26]One of the guys
[65:27]At Bell Biv DeVoe
[65:28]And that's what got them
[65:29]Signed for Motown Records
[65:30]Oh my god
[65:31]Can you imagine that
[65:32]Amazing
[65:32]You'd have to be so good
[65:34]Can you imagine
[65:35]How
[65:35]BBD
[65:36]They all had the same
[65:37]Jeans on
[65:38]And Bivens said
[65:40]Why do you guys
[65:40]All have the same jeans on
[65:41]And they said
[65:42]Well because we're a group
[65:43]And then they just
[65:43]Busted into this right
[65:44]Isn't that what goes
[65:45]Is that true
[65:45]No
[65:46]I don't think so
[65:48]I just picture them
[65:49]In these videos
[65:50]They had dressed all the same
[65:52]Can you imagine
[65:53]Can you imagine
[65:54]If that happened to us guys
[65:55]You know what I mean
[65:57]Like if we were
[65:57]We're at a
[65:58]If we were all
[65:59]In Dante Culpepper jerseys
[66:00]And we were backstage
[66:01]In white jeans
[66:02]Right
[66:02]And somebody goes
[66:03]What are you guys
[66:05]And we go
[66:05]We're a singing group
[66:07]Group
[66:08]Girl
[66:11]East Coast
[66:12]Your butt crack
[66:13]Is just a smile
[66:13]Turned sideways
[66:14]I don't know
[66:17]I love it
[66:19]When that disco ball
[66:20]Hits your sideways smile
[66:22]Girl
[66:24]I will not hold hands
[66:26]With you inside of it
[66:27]At Hope Depot
[66:27]So that's it
[66:31]Those are the greatest songs
[66:33]For the New Jack Swing
[66:34]Which are inspired
[66:34]By one of Janet Jackson's
[66:36]Greatest hits
[66:37]Honestly
[66:37]That was fantastic
[66:38]Honestly
[66:38]Again it's probably
[66:40]Because we were
[66:41]That you know
[66:42]Like just getting to music
[66:43]But like
[66:43]That's some good stuff there
[66:45]The New Jack sound
[66:46]All of it
[66:47]Yes
[66:48]Is good stuff
[66:48]The amount of times
[66:49]I watch people grind
[66:51]Those songs
[66:51]During middle school dances
[66:52]Was unbelievable
[66:53]Yeah
[66:55]Were you ever
[66:55]Were you ever the one
[66:56]Grinding Rob or not
[66:57]No
[66:58]I'd go to the bathroom
[66:58]Doing slow songs
[66:59]You know that
[66:59]I told
[67:00]I said that
[67:01]My girl was going to a
[67:02]To a middle school dance
[67:03]And my wife and I
[67:04]You can tell
[67:05]We had very different experiences
[67:06]Did I tell you guys this
[67:07]No
[67:08]I don't know
[67:09]She was like
[67:09]Well I'm going to middle school dance
[67:10]And I was like
[67:10]Listen
[67:11]During the slow songs
[67:13]You can just go to the bathroom
[67:15]It's not a big deal
[67:15]You get out of it
[67:16]It's fine
[67:17]It's easy
[67:17]And my wife is like
[67:19]Oh my god
[67:19]School dances are so much fun
[67:21]You're going to have a great time
[67:22]You can just dance
[67:22]With anyone you want
[67:23]It's no big deal
[67:24]And I was like
[67:24]Yeah
[67:24]Exactly
[67:25]Very different experiences
[67:28]Aaron and Matt
[67:29]What was your school dance style
[67:31]Were you out on the dance floor
[67:32]The whole time
[67:33]I've told you my school dance story
[67:34]Where my
[67:35]Where my date
[67:35]Got together with
[67:36]Her ex-boyfriend
[67:37]On the dance floor
[67:38]But yeah
[67:39]I was always on the dance floor
[67:40]I was always out there
[67:41]I was out there
[67:42]The entire time
[67:43]Yes
[67:44]The entire
[67:45]We used to get there
[67:46]I don't know
[67:46]It was like 830
[67:47]Or 910
[67:48]Every school dance
[67:48]The entire time
[67:50]Yeah
[67:51]We had a lot
[67:51]I didn't
[67:52]I was too nervous to dance
[67:54]I thought people were
[67:54]Like judging me
[67:55]And I was there
[67:55]In my silk shirt
[67:56]And like slick
[67:57]Because I would still
[67:58]Slick my hair back
[67:59]And then of course
[68:00]They would do that
[68:00]Classic Rob thing
[68:01]Where it would be
[68:01]Curly on the side still
[68:03]So I'd have slicked on the top
[68:04]Curly on the side
[68:05]So I looked just like a clown
[68:06]And in retrospect
[68:08]I should have just danced
[68:09]That's all I wanted to do
[68:09]Is dance the whole time
[68:10]I love to dance
[68:11]You know that
[68:11]Russell knows that
[68:12]He's seen me break a leg
[68:13]I've seen it
[68:15]I kind of want to
[68:15]I kind of want to listen
[68:17]To some new
[68:17]Jack Swing now
[68:18]By the way
[68:19]Great name
[68:20]We are
[68:20]It's Janet Jackson
[68:21]It's this new Jack Swing
[68:22]We have really
[68:23]A bad time for it
[68:24]You can hear actually
[68:28]That the new Jack
[68:28]Kind of bumped up
[68:30]The tempos a little bit
[68:31]Like this is a little
[68:31]More laid back
[68:32]Now that we
[68:33]Come back to this
[68:34]So this song
[68:35]What Have You Done
[68:36]For Me Lately
[68:36]Was a major MTV catalyst
[68:39]It's Janet Jackson
[68:41]Dancing in her apartment
[68:42]With a chair
[68:43]And it's one of the
[68:45]Sexiest things
[68:46]You'll ever see
[68:46]And guess what
[68:47]Guess who the
[68:48]Choreographer was
[68:49]I'll give you a hint
[68:52]Think about somebody
[68:52]Having sex
[68:53]With a cat
[68:54]Okay
[68:54]With an animated cat
[68:56]Yeah
[68:56]It's Paula Abdul
[68:57]That's very interesting
[69:00]Because all week
[69:01]When we were listening
[69:01]To this
[69:01]My wife kept saying
[69:02]This makes me think
[69:03]Of Paula Abdul
[69:03]Totally
[69:04]Who I would imagine
[69:05]Paula was probably
[69:06]Taking her sound
[69:07]From Janet
[69:07]But I did not know
[69:08]They'd work together
[69:09]Elsewhere
[69:09]You don't think
[69:10]Paula Abdul
[69:10]Influenced Janet
[69:11]Like Janet listened
[69:11]To Paula Abdul
[69:12]I was like wow
[69:13]I love this one song
[69:14]I think it was probably
[69:15]Janet first
[69:16]But no
[69:17]I gotta give
[69:18]Anna a shot
[69:18]For that one
[69:19]She just realized
[69:19]How powerful
[69:20]A cartoon cat is
[69:21]When we still talk
[69:22]About Paula Abdul
[69:23]She had like
[69:24]That one good song
[69:25]That's it
[69:25]Because of MC's
[69:26]Cat Cat
[69:26]Right
[69:27]Were you watching
[69:27]No
[69:28]Were you watching
[69:28]The rest of the video
[69:29]You were watching
[69:30]The cat
[69:30]Well yeah
[69:32]Didn't she have
[69:32]Sex with the cat
[69:33]Isn't that what happened
[69:34]I don't
[69:34]No
[69:35]I don't know
[69:35]Let's pay attention
[69:37]To the cat
[69:37]They might have
[69:37]Just been dancing
[69:38]I thought they were
[69:39]Holding hands
[69:39]In a Home Depot
[69:40]Pause
[69:41]Is this another
[69:41]Mariah Carey
[69:42]Video
[69:43]Situation
[69:45]Where Rob's
[69:46]Recollection
[69:46]Of the video
[69:47]Is part of
[69:47]You guys know
[69:48]What we might
[69:48]Have to do
[69:48]Sometime
[69:49]Could be
[69:49]Sometime
[69:51]Not today
[69:51]Might have to
[69:52]Do another
[69:53]Four
[69:53]Three
[69:54]Two
[69:55]One
[69:56]Four
[69:57]Another
[69:58]Another
[69:58]Video
[69:59]Breakdown
[70:01]Long way to go
[70:02]It was worth it
[70:03]I did read that song
[70:04]Was about an annulment
[70:05]Yep
[70:05]An annulment
[70:07]Of her marriage
[70:08]I was wondering
[70:08]Rob if this is
[70:09]Where you were
[70:09]Going to talk
[70:10]About your
[70:10]Previous
[70:10]Annulments
[70:11]What does
[70:14]That mean
[70:14]An annulment
[70:15]Like is that
[70:16]Just like
[70:16]Where it's like
[70:17]Everybody's like
[70:17]Yeah this church
[70:18]This sucks
[70:19]We're out of here
[70:19]It never happened
[70:20]Like so you can
[70:21]Get married
[70:21]See you get married
[70:22]Again in the
[70:22]Catholic church
[70:23]But what's the
[70:24]Difference between
[70:24]That and like a
[70:24]Divorce like
[70:25]Is it just like
[70:26]Everybody says
[70:27]Yeah this is bad
[70:28]Or what
[70:28]Divorce isn't
[70:29]Allowed in the
[70:30]Some
[70:31]Christian
[70:32]Very interested
[70:32]In this topic
[70:33]Yeah
[70:34]No
[70:34]Things are going
[70:35]Fine
[70:36]I don't
[70:36]I don't know
[70:37]If you can get
[70:37]An annulment
[70:38]After 15 years
[70:39]Or wherever
[70:39]You're at Rob
[70:40]I think there's
[70:41]Going to be
[70:42]Need to be
[70:42]A divvying up
[70:43]Of assets
[70:44]Yeah that's what
[70:45]I'm talking about
[70:46]Divvy up that
[70:46]Asset
[70:47]You can be
[70:49]Mine
[70:49]This is a jam
[70:53]It is right
[70:54]Yeah
[70:55]This is a
[70:57]Badass keyboard
[70:58]Solo in the
[70:59]Middle of this
[70:59]One too
[70:59]Now you're
[71:00]Telling me that
[71:01]New kids on the
[71:02]Block didn't
[71:02]Take the right
[71:03]Stuff from this
[71:04]You gotta be kidding
[71:05]No it sounds
[71:05]Just like
[71:06]No absolutely
[71:06]It sounds just
[71:07]Like it right
[71:07]I mean Aaron
[71:08]Why would you
[71:08]Defend the new
[71:09]Kids on the
[71:09]Block and not
[71:10]Defend Janet Jackson
[71:11]I mean that's
[71:11]Crazy that you
[71:12]Would bring that
[71:12]Up
[71:13]I'm so confused
[71:14]You think the
[71:14]New kids on the
[71:15]Block are better
[71:15]Than Janet Jackson
[71:16]Aaron
[71:16]That's crazy
[71:17]What is happening
[71:18]Here
[71:18]Wow
[71:19]I can't believe
[71:20]That happened in
[71:20]Some parts that
[71:21]Were edited out
[71:21]Earlier and it
[71:22]Wasn't an offensive
[71:23]Joke
[71:23]Didn't that one
[71:25]New kid burn
[71:26]Down a building
[71:27]Or something
[71:27]What was the
[71:28]New kid that
[71:29]Got in legal
[71:29]Trouble back in
[71:30]The day
[71:30]It's probably
[71:30]Donnie Wahlberg
[71:31]Right I think
[71:32]Donnie has
[71:32]Again then he
[71:33]Showed up in
[71:33]The sixth sense
[71:34]As a trouble
[71:35]Former patient
[71:36]Of Bruce Willis
[71:37]Then he married
[71:40]What's her name
[71:41]Jenny McCartney
[71:42]McCarthy
[71:42]He did
[71:43]Oh Aaron
[71:44]Jenny McCarthy
[71:45]Don't you watch
[71:45]New Year's Eve
[71:46]He's at
[71:46]Every one
[71:47]And gets to
[71:47]Make out with
[71:47]Jenny McCarthy
[71:48]Donnie Wahlberg
[71:50]I mean can you
[71:52]Imagine making out
[71:53]With the real
[71:53]Jenny McCarthy
[71:54]And not her
[71:54]Maxim picture
[71:56]What do you mean
[71:57]What's the real
[71:58]What does that mean
[71:59]Like the real
[72:00]Rob's saying that
[72:00]He may have spent
[72:01]Some time
[72:02]He used to make
[72:02]Out with Maxim
[72:03]Magazines
[72:04]Yeah
[72:04]You guys remember
[72:05]Maxim
[72:06]Maxim was so great
[72:07]He was like
[72:08]Hey do you like
[72:09]Porno
[72:09]Okay you can
[72:12]Buy this
[72:12]And not feel
[72:12]Embarrassed
[72:13]He was always
[72:16]Like
[72:16]There are some
[72:17]Great articles
[72:17]Yeah it was always
[72:18]Like things
[72:19]Girls like
[72:20]About guys
[72:20]Girls like it
[72:21]When guys are messy
[72:22]We had a bad
[72:24]Experience with Maxim
[72:25]Yeah we had a bad
[72:26]Experience with Maxim
[72:26]Because we tried
[72:27]To watch all 50
[72:28]Of the
[72:29]They did the 50
[72:30]Greatest sex scenes
[72:30]Of all time
[72:31]Yeah
[72:32]And it included
[72:32]Movies like
[72:33]Angel Heart
[72:33]With Mickey Rourke
[72:34]And Lisa Bonet
[72:35]What were some
[72:36]Of the other
[72:36]Like oh like
[72:37]I think probably
[72:37]Fucking Jason's
[72:38]Lyric was in there
[72:39]Or something
[72:39]Just like
[72:40]Depressing movies
[72:42]Like hard to watch
[72:43]Movies except for
[72:44]The sex scenes
[72:44]But we
[72:45]Probably
[72:46]Plowed through
[72:46]We watched all of them
[72:47]But it was not pleasant
[72:48]Especially when you're
[72:50]Watching it with a
[72:51]Cartoon cat
[72:51]It's really awkward
[72:52]You take two steps
[72:56]Forward then you
[72:57]Eat my ass
[72:57]What?
[72:59]That's trying to
[73:00]Think of a rhyme
[73:01]We don't need to
[73:02]Do those again Rob
[73:03]Don't tell my wife
[73:04]She thinks it's
[73:05]A normal thing
[73:06]That you
[73:06]You should
[73:07]It has to be done
[73:08]Medically
[73:08]I could get
[73:10]Really hurt
[73:10]I've got blue ass
[73:14]Alright
[73:15]Rob's been thinking
[73:16]For three weeks
[73:16]About how he could
[73:17]Do more ass eating jokes
[73:18]No I'm done
[73:20]I could get
[73:22]Really hurt
[73:22]I know Russell
[73:23]Doesn't like it
[73:24]Alright
[73:25]And she's a doctor
[73:26]That's even funnier
[73:27]Because she's a doctor
[73:28]Now
[73:30]She's like looking
[73:30]Through medical journals
[73:31]All weekend
[73:32]Trying to figure out
[73:33]There's just
[73:34]There's no
[73:35]There's no science
[73:36]Behind it Rob
[73:37]I don't get it
[73:37]What
[73:38]How can you get hurt
[73:39]I have blue walls
[73:40]It happened
[73:40]You guys
[73:41]The worst
[73:43]I've often said that
[73:44]I will not have
[73:45]A hot for teacher
[73:46]On my
[73:46]Weight room
[73:47]Playlist
[73:48]When I work at school
[73:48]Right
[73:49]It's a disaster
[73:50]You can't go by
[73:50]See a teacher
[73:51]Working out to
[73:52]Hot for teacher
[73:52]But imagine
[73:53]If you were a principal
[73:54]And you're in your office
[73:55]And you're listening
[73:56]To some music
[73:57]On a Spotify station
[73:58]Or whatever
[73:58]And this is on
[73:59]Principal of pleasure
[74:05]Principal of pleasure
[74:07]If you're listening
[74:08]To the pressure principal
[74:09]In your office
[74:10]That would be a bummer
[74:11]Can't be doing that
[74:12]Has there ever been
[74:13]A wrestler
[74:14]Called the principal
[74:15]Of pleasure?
[74:15]Oh that'd be so good
[74:16]That would be a great
[74:17]Wrestling name
[74:17]This character
[74:18]Would be an erotic principal
[74:19]So good
[74:25]This is her only single
[74:28]To not hit top 10
[74:30]Until her next one
[74:32]In 2001
[74:33]From 86 to 2001
[74:34]Every single she released
[74:35]To hit the top 10
[74:37]Jeez
[74:37]I think that was
[74:38]The only one on the album
[74:39]That wasn't written by
[74:40]Jimmy Jam and Terry Lewis
[74:41]I mean it's crazy
[74:42]You can hear the difference
[74:43]This album is huge
[74:43]Now you hear the difference
[74:44]That's true
[74:45]Yeah
[74:45]It definitely is more
[74:46]Of a generic pop song
[74:47]Can I ask you guys a question?
[74:49]I know Matt brought this up
[74:51]On Michael Jackson albums before
[74:52]Is there any part of this
[74:54]That it felt too sterile to you?
[74:55]It's almost like too perfect
[74:57]Yeah
[74:57]Like it feels like
[74:58]It's made in a lab
[74:59]If you will
[75:00]Do you guys get that feel at all?
[75:02]Yes
[75:02]I do
[75:04]And I used to think
[75:06]That I was against that
[75:07]But then Beyonce came along
[75:08]And I'm all for it now
[75:10]But yeah
[75:11]I definitely know
[75:13]What you're saying there Russell
[75:14]For sure
[75:14]I think
[75:15]Yeah you're totally right Russell
[75:17]And it's also
[75:18]It speaks to the fact
[75:19]That it's only nine songs
[75:20]This was definitely
[75:21]A tightly controlled
[75:23]No pun intended
[75:25]Effort to make a hit album
[75:27]That was
[75:28]Just hits
[75:29]And super tight
[75:31]It kind of gets to my
[75:32]My final point
[75:34]Which is I don't know
[75:34]I don't really know
[75:35]How you choose between this
[75:36]And Rhythm Nation
[75:37]But I do think Rhythm Nation
[75:38]Has some more
[75:39]You know
[75:40]Some rougher edges
[75:42]And is possibly
[75:43]Kind of bloated
[75:44]But I think
[75:45]Yeah you're right Russell
[75:46]This sounds like
[75:46]It was just created
[75:47]Specifically to make
[75:48]Radio hits
[75:49]Pumped right into people's ears
[75:50]I mean if you would have said
[75:51]What's one of the biggest albums
[75:52]Of the 80s
[75:53]Would you have said
[75:53]Control by Janet Jackson
[75:55]I mean I'm starting to think
[75:56]This is like a
[75:56]Seminal album
[75:58]Of the 80s pop
[76:00]I mean it's already led
[76:01]To all this stuff
[76:01]We've already talked about
[76:02]But it's just huge
[76:03]It's like
[76:03]Selling wise
[76:05]I mean how it's set up
[76:06]How it sounds
[76:06]It's just like
[76:07]It sets the tone
[76:08]For a lot of it
[76:09]When I think of you
[76:11]This is Janet Jackson's
[76:13]First number one hit
[76:14]Yeah
[76:15]Yeah a little more space
[76:23]In this one
[76:23]A little more minimalist
[76:25]Yeah
[76:26]And a little bit more
[76:28]Probably what they expected
[76:29]Out of a pop song
[76:29]At the time right
[76:30]Like yeah
[76:31]This feels very radio
[76:33]Friendly
[76:34]Damn she can sing though
[76:36]Looks like Control
[76:39]Was the 60th
[76:40]Best selling album
[76:41]Of the 80s
[76:42]Boy
[76:43]Yeah
[76:43]Yeah
[76:44]Yeah
[76:45]You gotta wonder
[76:46]If she was white
[76:47]If that would be like
[76:48]More like 6th
[76:49]Two steps in front of Madonna
[76:50]Madonna's self-titled album
[76:53]From 83
[76:53]Was just below it
[76:55]In terms of sales
[76:56]Oh that's interesting
[76:57]Yeah
[76:57]I wonder if it's just
[76:58]Too in front of its time
[77:00]The whole front half of this
[77:01]Is all that new
[77:02]Jack Swing stuff
[77:03]Now that I've heard
[77:03]I've learned about that
[77:04]I'm actually pretty smart in it
[77:05]Rhythm Nation was a higher
[77:06]Selling one
[77:07]Rhythm Nation sold
[77:08]Was in the 40s
[77:10]So Rhythm Nation
[77:11]Was a better seller
[77:12]Yeah Rhythm Nation
[77:12]Has some massive hits
[77:14]He doesn't know
[77:17]I'm alive
[77:17]This is me
[77:18]In a middle school dance
[77:19]Right here
[77:20]I love her voice on this
[77:23]You guys
[77:26]One thing I have
[77:27]A surprise to share
[77:28]With you guys
[77:29]As you guys know
[77:30]We try to pair cocktails
[77:31]On this
[77:32]Quest of ours
[77:33]And a while back
[77:34]I got a text
[77:35]From a listener
[77:35]And they told me
[77:37]There's a new book out
[77:38]It's called
[77:38]Booze and Vinyl 2
[77:40]The authors of
[77:41]Booze and Vinyl
[77:42]Have put out a new book
[77:43]That has 70
[77:44]New albums
[77:45]With new cocktails
[77:46]And everything
[77:46]And Janet Jackson's
[77:47]In the book
[77:48]Oh
[77:48]But I thought I could
[77:50]Share a quote
[77:51]At the beginning of the book
[77:52]That I thought you guys
[77:53]Would enjoy
[77:53]Is it a baby Guinness?
[77:54]Because that's not
[77:55]Going to be very many
[77:55]Songs
[77:56]Sorry I've got to
[77:59]Go use the bathroom
[78:00]I'll come back and tell you
[78:01]There's a quote at the end
[78:03]From someone named
[78:04]John Peel
[78:04]It says
[78:04]Somebody was trying
[78:05]To tell me that
[78:06]CDs are better than vinyl
[78:07]Because they don't have
[78:09]Any surface noise
[78:10]I said listen mate
[78:11]Life has surface noise
[78:13]Oh that's beautiful
[78:14]There you go
[78:15]Love it
[78:16]So this one
[78:17]Control by Janet Jackson
[78:20]Is in Booze and Vinyl 2
[78:21]They say you should
[78:23]Drop the needle
[78:24]Come up
[78:25]Or queue up some
[78:25]Janet Jackson videos
[78:26]And serve extra large drinks
[78:28]To anyone who
[78:29]Masters her moves
[78:30]And on side B
[78:31]They recommend
[78:32]A rendezvous
[78:33]Have you ever had
[78:33]A rendezvous before?
[78:34]No
[78:34]Now does it have
[78:37]Ron Diaz rum in it?
[78:38]God I hope so
[78:39]It does not
[78:40]It has two ounces
[78:41]Of gin
[78:41]Three quarters ounce
[78:43]Maraschino
[78:44]Liquor
[78:44]And three quarters ounce
[78:47]Of fresh lime juice
[78:48]So that's a rendezvous
[78:52]Not much more
[78:56]Than a baby Guinness
[78:57]Although
[78:57]That was a little bit healthier
[78:59]That almost sounds
[78:59]Like a health drink to me
[79:00]Russell
[79:00]Like
[79:01]Do you feel healthier?
[79:02]Well yeah
[79:05]I'm gonna get scurvy
[79:06]With all that lime juice
[79:07]In there
[79:08]So that's good
[79:08]I'm gonna keep
[79:09]The rickets away
[79:10]The rickets?
[79:12]Yeah you can take that
[79:13]On a cruise around the world
[79:14]No problem
[79:14]What they suggested
[79:16]On side A
[79:17]Just in case anyone's looking
[79:18]Was a cognac and coke
[79:19]Does that sound good
[79:20]To you guys?
[79:21]That sounds great
[79:21]Absolutely not
[79:22]In the same glass?
[79:24]Booze and Vinyl 2
[79:37]Go check it out
[79:38]People will like it
[79:39]The sequel
[79:40]Part 2
[79:41]So are you
[79:42]You're really drinking that drink?
[79:43]Let me see that Russell
[79:44]Let me see that drink again
[79:45]God that looks good
[79:47]It's like
[79:47]Fire engine red
[79:49]It's like so bright
[79:49]It's very red
[79:50]Well I might have
[79:51]I might have overdone
[79:52]The maraschino liqueur
[79:53]No such thing
[79:56]No such thing
[79:57]Russell you had
[79:58]All those ingredients
[79:59]Come on now
[80:00]Yeah
[80:00]Well I
[80:01]I subbed out
[80:02]My maraschino liqueur
[80:03]With just
[80:03]Cherry juice
[80:04]From the
[80:05]The bottle
[80:06]Oh I mean
[80:06]That's pretty good
[80:08]Okay okay
[80:09]Russell
[80:09]Now be honest
[80:10]Be honest with me
[80:11]You had lime juice?
[80:12]I had a lime juice
[80:13]I had a lime
[80:14]I had a regular lime
[80:15]Yes
[80:15]I was hoping
[80:15]You'd use 7-Up again
[80:16]Now the song
[80:20]That Russell
[80:21]Could most relate to
[80:21]Let's wait a while
[80:22]I love this song
[80:23]I
[80:24]I just love
[80:27]Them soft keys
[80:28]You do like this one
[80:29]Yes I love it
[80:30]It's so cheesy
[80:31]It's the worst
[80:31]I know
[80:32]I can't get enough of it
[80:33]I love it
[80:34]The co-writer's
[80:36]Experience with abstinence
[80:38]And it's like
[80:39]Hey Janet
[80:39]Can you sing this?
[80:40]Not knowing
[80:40]The rest of the album
[80:41]Was like
[80:41]Made you want to
[80:42]Bang big time
[80:43]As any relationship
[80:45]That was built on the premise
[80:46]Of waiting a while
[80:47]Ever worked out
[80:47]The answer is no
[80:49]Right?
[80:51]Yeah no you're right
[80:51]Yeah like
[80:52]Mine's been
[80:53]Gaining weight after a while
[80:55]But that's a different
[80:55]As my lady pointed out
[80:59]This is definitely
[80:59]Not a fuckfest song
[81:01]This one is not
[81:02]One you'd play
[81:02]At a fuckfest
[81:03]We should ask
[81:07]We should ask
[81:08]Magic Mike
[81:09]69
[81:10]If he could like
[81:11]See if he could work it in
[81:12]See if he could somehow
[81:13]Figure it out
[81:14]Cause I'm
[81:14]If anybody can
[81:15]Magic Mike 69
[81:16]Can figure it out
[81:17]It's just like
[81:18]The most disciplined
[81:19]Fuckfest in the history
[81:20]Of the world
[81:20]Like everyone is just like
[81:22]Sitting around staring at
[81:23]Apple watches
[81:24]Yep
[81:25]Wait till it's time
[81:26]It would be me
[81:28]At the fuckfest you know
[81:29]Where everybody would be like
[81:29]Oh let's have some drinks
[81:30]And have some appetizers
[81:31]And I'd be like
[81:32]No that's not how this works
[81:36]We need to
[81:37]Take our time
[81:38]Let's wait a while
[81:40]Everybody's definitely
[81:42]Looking in each other's eyes
[81:43]When they're listening
[81:43]To that one
[81:44]I'd be like
[81:45]Have you guys ever seen
[81:45]Someone beat ball bull
[81:47]On Mike Tyson's
[81:48]Punch out on Nintendo
[81:48]I honestly think
[81:51]That if I was
[81:52]If you were at a fuckfest
[81:53]And you were sitting next to me
[81:54]I think you would just
[81:55]Turn to me and be like
[81:56]Let's wait a while
[81:58]Just hope
[82:04]You'd be like
[82:05]Hey let's wait
[82:05]And you're just hopeful
[82:07]You're like okay
[82:07]How long is a while
[82:09]There's a good chance
[82:10]This guy needs to go
[82:11]Use the bathroom
[82:12]Before this thing starts
[82:12]So I'm going to try to
[82:13]Yeah
[82:14]It's a reverse of the
[82:15]It's a reverse of the
[82:16]Middle school dance
[82:17]Right
[82:17]The fuckfest is a reverse
[82:19]Of the middle school dance
[82:20]Middle school dance
[82:20]I'm going to the bathroom
[82:21]The fuckfest
[82:23]The person sitting next to me
[82:24]Is going to the bathroom
[82:25]Trying to get out of there
[82:26]God my life is terrible
[82:27]Funny how time flies
[82:31]When you're having fun
[82:32]Now this
[82:34]Is so much
[82:36]Of the Janet Jackson
[82:37]That I'm used to
[82:38]Yeah
[82:38]From like
[82:39]90s Janet
[82:40]Where she's like
[82:41]Oh yeah
[82:42]You guys want to
[82:43]Bang them
[82:43]And check this song out
[82:45]Right
[82:45]I mean this is like
[82:47]Future Janet right
[82:48]Like this is
[82:49]Yeah
[82:50]That voice
[82:52]And don't forget
[82:55]Russell
[82:55]You think I'm not going
[82:56]To mention the album cover
[82:56]Where somebody's
[82:57]Holding their boobs
[82:58]It's all I can think about
[82:59]When I think about
[83:00]Janet Jackson
[83:00]I've already done
[83:03]A Super Bowl joke
[83:03]A lot of my life
[83:06]Is actually Janet Jackson
[83:07]Boobs related
[83:08]Wasn't that her husband
[83:08]At the time
[83:09]Wasn't it Renee Elizondo
[83:10]Who was holding onto him
[83:11]I thought that was
[83:11]A Rolling Stone cover
[83:12]Was that an album cover
[83:13]I don't know
[83:15]I had it
[83:16]Pasted into a
[83:18]Maxim magazine
[83:19]I put it
[83:21]Made my own Maxim
[83:23]One of the things
[83:24]In Aaron's mind
[83:25]Is he knows
[83:25]Who was holding onto
[83:26]Janet Jackson's breasts
[83:27]During the album cover
[83:28]That's like
[83:29]Part of what takes up
[83:30]Your wattage
[83:31]There
[83:31]Yeah
[83:33]Not a lot of wattage
[83:34]But I know that one
[83:35]I need system
[83:35]Andrew Elizondo
[83:37]Wasn't he like
[83:38]The nerd
[83:39]In the Cosby show
[83:40]Was that
[83:42]Alvin
[83:42]You guys know
[83:43]What I'm talking about
[83:44]Alvin
[83:44]What are you talking about
[83:45]What
[83:46]Yeah
[83:48]Revenge of the nerd
[83:49]He was married
[83:50]To the oldest daughter
[83:51]Lisa Bonet
[83:54]Nope
[83:55]She was
[83:55]Second
[83:56]By the way
[83:57]Who
[83:57]At some point
[83:58]Was dating
[83:59]Lenny Kravitz
[83:59]Married to him
[84:00]And I want to remind you again
[84:01]There's that video
[84:02]Of Lenny Kravitz
[84:02]Jumping up
[84:03]And doing the splits
[84:04]And another guy
[84:05]With an absolutely
[84:06]Massive cock
[84:07]I mean it's so big
[84:08]It's snaked out of his pants
[84:10]You gotta look up this video
[84:11]You know what
[84:12]We're gonna watch it
[84:13]After this episode
[84:14]There's so much
[84:15]Dong wattage
[84:15]In Rob's brain
[84:17]Hey listen
[84:18]When I brought up
[84:19]Liam Neeson
[84:19]Peeing his pants
[84:20]And the pee being
[84:21]Way down low
[84:21]I had multiple listeners
[84:23]Text me pictures
[84:24]Of Liam Neeson
[84:25]With pissed pants
[84:26]And how many of them
[84:28]Have you not seen before
[84:29]You've seen them all before
[84:30]I had seen them all
[84:31]Pissed pants
[84:33]Pissed pants
[84:34]Look at that
[84:39]I have a very
[84:40]Specific set of skills
[84:41]I have a very
[84:42]There's so many
[84:43]I mean there's so many
[84:44]Where there's multiple
[84:44]Look at this
[84:45]This was just a collage
[84:47]Of all the time
[84:47]He pissed his pants
[84:48]Hey it feels good
[84:51]Listen let's get into
[84:52]The rating system
[84:53]Okay we are talking
[84:54]About album 111
[84:56]Okay
[84:57]We are getting there Aaron
[84:59]We are slowly
[85:00]Climbing our way
[85:01]Through the list
[85:01]If peeing your pants
[85:03]Is cool
[85:04]Consider me Liam Neeson
[85:05]Look at that picture
[85:06]On the corner
[85:06]I mean just
[85:09]That's funny
[85:10]So many
[85:10]Pictures
[85:11]And I mean
[85:12]Don't talk about
[85:13]The party I went to
[85:14]In college
[85:15]Where they had
[85:15]The black light
[85:16]It just was like
[85:17]Oh no
[85:18]I don't do laundry
[85:19]In college
[85:19]Anyway
[85:20]Do you think like
[85:21]After the first
[85:22]18 pictures
[85:23]Of this happening
[85:23]He didn't say like
[85:24]Well maybe I should
[85:25]Get some different
[85:26]Colored pants
[85:26]Or something that
[85:27]Will cover this up
[85:28]A little better
[85:28]Or is he aware
[85:30]Does he google this
[85:31]And like try to get
[85:32]Google to take
[85:32]Them all down
[85:33]Or not
[85:33]If it's anything
[85:34]Like me
[85:35]I google my name
[85:36]In piss pants
[85:37]Almost every day
[85:38]Just to make sure
[85:38]Nothing's out there
[85:39]And we all
[85:41]We all know
[85:42]That I do have
[85:42]An issue with that
[85:43]Liam Neeson
[85:44]Evian
[85:45]I want to look up
[85:45]One thing
[85:46]And I'll be back
[85:46]With you guys
[85:47]For one second
[85:47]Yeah
[85:49]So Janice Dickinson
[85:51]In her autobiography
[85:52]Said that
[85:53]Liam Neeson's
[85:55]Cock looked like
[85:56]An Evian bottle
[85:56]What?
[85:57]Neeson hung
[85:59]Like Evian
[86:00]That is
[86:01]That is in text
[86:02]Do you know
[86:03]Anybody who knows
[86:04]More about celebrity
[86:05]Penises than I do
[86:05]No
[86:06]No
[86:06]No
[86:08]Colors
[86:09]Shapes
[86:10]Size
[86:10]Everything
[86:11]No I really
[86:11]Don't
[86:12]You're the number
[86:12]One
[86:13]Celebrity
[86:14]Penis
[86:14]After the song
[86:16]We're going to watch
[86:17]This Lenny Kravitz
[86:17]Penis video
[86:18]Different podcast
[86:19]Rob
[86:20]Start your own
[86:21]Separate
[86:21]Celebrity
[86:22]Penis
[86:22]Podcast
[86:23]Don't take that
[86:26]Idea
[86:26]And think about it
[86:28]Dong rhymes
[86:28]With theme song
[86:29]It writes itself
[86:30]I mean
[86:30]It's so good
[86:31]Listen
[86:32]But this is
[86:34]What this is
[86:34]This is the rating
[86:35]System
[86:35]Okay
[86:36]We were talking
[86:37]About Janet Jackson
[86:38]Control
[86:38]At 111
[86:40]Okay
[86:40]If you think
[86:40]This album
[86:41]Is perfect
[86:42]At 111
[86:43]Okay
[86:44]That is a rolling
[86:45]Well toned
[86:47]If you think
[86:48]This album
[86:49]Is nasty
[86:50]Oh
[86:51]Nasty boys
[86:52]Ooh
[86:53]You nasty boys
[86:54]Okay
[86:55]That's a nasty thing
[86:56]To say
[86:56]That you don't think
[86:57]It should be at 111
[86:57]It should be farther back
[86:58]This is a rolling
[86:59]Groan
[87:00]And I'm going to edit that
[87:04]So it sounds like
[87:05]It was right
[87:05]I found it right away
[87:06]Okay
[87:07]That is if you're a nasty boy
[87:08]If you think
[87:09]This album
[87:09]Should have been higher up
[87:10]Listen
[87:11]It's a seminal album
[87:12]Of the 80s
[87:13]So much of what I listened to
[87:15]Sounded like this album
[87:16]Growing up
[87:17]It's crazy
[87:18]How influential
[87:19]Janet Jackson
[87:20]Jimmy Jam
[87:20]The Minneapolis sound
[87:21]That was huge in pop
[87:23]This should be higher up
[87:24]On the list
[87:24]That would be a rolling
[87:26]Bone
[87:27]It should have been higher up
[87:28]We should have heard this already
[87:29]Before
[87:30]Tonight
[87:31]At 111
[87:32]Okay
[87:33]Now we are running long guys
[87:34]So please don't waste any time
[87:35]Let me know what you think
[87:36]Of this album
[87:37]Janet Jackson
[87:38]Control
[87:38]At 111
[87:40]Russell
[87:40]What do you think?
[87:41]I enjoyed the album
[87:43]For me
[87:43]I
[87:44]I almost would rather
[87:45]Just have a handful of songs
[87:47]On a playlist for me
[87:48]Like I was saying
[87:48]For me
[87:49]Some of it's like too pristine
[87:50]Like it's created in a lab
[87:52]It's just almost too perfect
[87:55]And a lot of the songs
[87:56]In the first half
[87:57]Felt kind of repetitive to me
[87:58]And then
[87:58]Where I was looking
[87:59]For something different
[88:00]You had these songs
[88:01]At the end
[88:01]Where there were these
[88:02]Really slow ballads
[88:03]Which weren't
[88:04]Really my favorite
[88:05]But some of the songs
[88:06]Are absolute jams
[88:07]I love how it was
[88:08]Kind of a pioneer
[88:08]For the
[88:09]New Jack Swing song
[88:10]It was
[88:10]We
[88:11]We heard on a couple
[88:11]Of the songs
[88:12]So for me
[88:12]I'm going to say
[88:13]It's Rolling Well-Toned
[88:14]Aaron
[88:15]Rolling Well-Toned
[88:16]Rolling Boned
[88:17]Or Rolling Grown
[88:18]Janet Jackson
[88:19]Control
[88:19]I
[88:21]Think Janet Jackson
[88:23]At this
[88:24]Point in the list
[88:25]Is Well-Toned
[88:26]But I'm going to
[88:27]Steal Rob's bit
[88:28]And I'm going to
[88:29]Say I have some
[88:30]Rolling Confusion
[88:31]Because I don't
[88:32]Confusion?
[88:33]I don't know how
[88:34]You could choose
[88:34]Between this
[88:35]And Rhythm Nation
[88:35]Because Rhythm Nation
[88:37]Has
[88:38]Rhythm Nation
[88:39]All Right
[88:40]Escapade
[88:41]Miss You Much
[88:42]Absolute Bangers
[88:43]So I don't know
[88:44]How you could choose
[88:45]Between this one
[88:45]And Rhythm Nation
[88:46]It's a toss up
[88:46]For me
[88:47]So I'm going to
[88:47]Call it Rolling Well-Toned
[88:48]Because one of those
[88:49]Albums should be
[88:50]Right here where it's at
[88:51]Matt
[88:52]What do you think
[88:53]Of Rolling Well-Toned
[88:53]Rolling Boned
[88:54]Or Rolling Grown
[88:55]Or Rolling Confusion
[88:57]And don't look
[88:58]What I was looking
[88:58]At on the screen
[88:59]I think it's
[89:01]Rolling Boned
[89:01]I think this whole list
[89:03]The ones that we've
[89:04]Heard before it
[89:05]Everything you can
[89:06]Kind of figure out
[89:07]The tree
[89:09]Of the
[89:10]Music that comes
[89:11]After it
[89:12]You know
[89:13]Kind of starts
[89:13]With some of this stuff
[89:14]And I think you hear
[89:15]So much of what
[89:16]Comes later
[89:17]And even that very
[89:18]Last song right
[89:19]I mean that's like
[89:19]90s baby making
[89:21]R&B right there
[89:22]That you just
[89:23]Hadn't really heard
[89:24]Before
[89:25]I don't think
[89:26]That's the problem
[89:27]You know what
[89:27]I always
[89:27]Music
[89:28]We always talk about
[89:28]Music make love to
[89:29]Try making love
[89:30]To New Jack Swing
[89:31]It's almost impossible
[89:32]You fly right off the bed
[89:34]I mean I really
[89:36]Want you to think
[89:37]About this
[89:37]I mean
[89:38]Think about
[89:39]Your like
[89:40]You're gonna make
[89:40]Sweet
[89:41]Sweet love
[89:42]To your wife
[89:43]Right
[89:43]Or whoever
[89:44]No no wait a minute
[89:49]Now I am picturing
[89:49]I think it could work
[89:50]I'm picturing
[89:51]All three of you
[89:52]And I like it a lot
[89:53]Technically
[89:54]The guy who wrote
[89:56]Bell Biv Devoe
[89:57]Poison
[89:57]Was this guy named
[89:58]Elliot Strait
[89:59]Known as Dr. Freeze
[90:00]And he also wrote
[90:01]I wanna sex you up
[90:03]So actually Rob
[90:04]I think
[90:04]Wow
[90:05]New Jack Swing
[90:05]Is good for baby
[90:06]Making music
[90:07]I never figured out
[90:08]What that song was about
[90:09]But
[90:10]It was pretty sexy
[90:11]He's gonna
[90:13]That's when you go to the bathroom
[90:14]At the school dance
[90:15]Right?
[90:16]So long answer
[90:17]Short
[90:18]I think it's Rolling Bones
[90:19]Should be higher in the list
[90:20]Just from how influential
[90:21]And you know
[90:22]Rosie brings up a good point
[90:23]Rhythm Nation
[90:24]Could be the same one
[90:25]But the fact that we've
[90:26]Are now getting
[90:27]To 80s
[90:28]Pop
[90:29]You know
[90:30]Icons
[90:30]Is
[90:31]Overdue
[90:31]Kinda nuts to me
[90:32]Yeah
[90:33]Overdue
[90:33]So from
[90:34]Maybe from a concept
[90:36]Rolling Bones
[90:37]Album
[90:37]You know
[90:37]To Rosie's
[90:38]You could
[90:38]You could switch it off
[90:39]With Rhythm
[90:39]Nation
[90:40]But
[90:40]From a concept
[90:41]Rolling Bones
[90:42]Listen
[90:43]You guys are incorrect
[90:44]Unfortunately
[90:44]Although you were pretty close
[90:46]Actually
[90:46]Some of yours
[90:47]This is a
[90:48]Rolling
[90:48]Miss Jackson
[90:50]Janet
[90:51]It's Nasty
[90:52]Jackson
[90:52]This
[90:53]Guys
[90:54]This is a pop album
[90:55]That basically
[90:56]Was the pop of our youth
[90:57]And led to the pop
[90:58]That we heard
[90:59]Growing up
[90:59]If you listen to
[91:01]How many times
[91:01]Britney Spears
[91:02]Refers to
[91:03]This album
[91:03]Talking about
[91:04]Nasty boys
[91:05]Talking about
[91:06]There's so many things
[91:07]Where she'll stop
[91:08]The music stops
[91:09]Like
[91:09]This was a
[91:11]Giant album
[91:11]That was
[91:12]Paved the road
[91:13]For pop music
[91:14]For years to come
[91:15]And it deserves
[91:16]To be
[91:17]Don't know what I was
[91:19]Going to finish
[91:19]That sentence
[91:20]Listen
[91:20]Next up
[91:21]We've got an album
[91:23]That might be
[91:24]The absolute opposite
[91:25]Of this album
[91:26]That you could possibly get
[91:27]Okay
[91:28]It answers the question
[91:29]Is Jamaican Jerk Off
[91:30]The worst song ever
[91:31]And the answer is
[91:32]Yes
[91:33]We have Elton John
[91:34]With Goodbye
[91:34]When you want to hear
[91:36]About the greatest
[91:37]Albums of all time
[91:39]But you're just
[91:41]Too busy
[91:42]To look it up
[91:43]Online
[91:43]If you want to hear
[91:46]Four guys who chat
[91:48]And then they get off
[91:48]I think I need to get
[91:49]A new mic
[91:49]Before that next episode
[91:51]I'm going to get
[91:51]A new mic
[91:52]Yes
[91:52]I've got the perfect
[91:52]Podcast for you
[91:54]Jack
[91:54]Beck did it better
[91:57]Okay now
[91:58]I don't know if you guys
[91:59]Noticed how seamlessly
[91:59]I went on Bing
[92:00]And turned off
[92:01]The safe search
[92:02]Okay just like
[92:03]It was like
[92:04]Second nature to me
[92:05]But watch this
[92:06]I had to go on
[92:06]Kind of a weird site
[92:07]To find this
[92:08]Bloody Kravitz
[92:09]Right here he is
[92:11]Did you see it?
[92:14]Whoa
[92:15]Did you see it?
[92:16]And he covered it up
[92:17]Right where this video
[92:18]Slows down and zooms in
[92:19]For us
[92:19]So look at this
[92:20]Boom
[92:22]Yeah there it is
[92:24]And then he covers it up
[92:25]Right
[92:26]Wait how many of these
[92:27]Sam are there?
[92:28]Yeah that's a much
[92:31]Better legacy
[92:32]I do definitely
[92:33]Do not have a legacy
[92:34]Of my pants splitting open
[92:35]And my
[92:36]Whatever Rob calls it
[92:37]You know what
[92:39]Zad is
[92:39]I've done that so many times
[92:40]Split my pants open
[92:41]Just so many
[92:43]At work sitting on a stool
[92:44]And then I'm just
[92:44]Sitting on the stool
[92:45]For the rest of the day
[92:46]Ah class
[92:47]No need to walk around
[92:48]Or do anything
[92:48]Bye see you later
[92:49]Sorry Russ
[92:52]Wouldn't you just have
[92:53]Another pair of pants
[92:54]Just sitting in the
[92:55]Sitting in a drawer
[92:56]Yeah and guess what
[92:57]They still rip
[92:57]Okay or maybe you ride
[92:59]A bike to work every day
[93:00]And you get on the bike
[93:01]And your pants rip
[93:02]And then you're
[93:02]A big problem
[93:03]Because you're walking
[93:04]Into work with ripped pants
[93:05]And where do you put the helmet?
[93:06]Over the rip
[93:07]Sounds like you need
[93:08]A new bag
[93:08]To carry an extra pair of pants
[93:10]With it
[93:10]Ha ha ha ha ha
[93:11]Ha ha ha ha ha
[93:38]Thank you.
