Hank Williams: 40 Greatest Hits (1978)

Beck Did It Better Podcast 1978
About this episodeThis episode is pleasant but not memorable even though it features more hits than Bobby Bonilla because this week we become the best podcast about Hank Williams and the 132nd greatest album of all time, Hank Williams 40 Greatest Hits.  But before we get to the album we talk about some other stuff, because variety is the spice of life. First, we take a voicemail from an old friend, which leads to some stories about tobacco, a cheese ball container, a fire extinguisher, and a magic penny. Then we discuss eating tacos and lingerie shopping, how kids ruin our ability to enjoy our favorite activit

[00:00]In 2020, four friends decided to listen to every one of the greatest 500 albums as decided by Rolling Stone magazine.

[00:07]This results in a text chain that celebrated the music, excoriated the order, and led us to making this podcast.

[00:12]We are far from experts. We promise to do almost no research.

[00:14]All opinions are our own, unless you disagree.

[00:17]Please sit back and enjoy.

[00:18]Beck did it better.

[00:20]We are all the way up to album 132.

[00:24]And from 1978, kind of, it's the album that doesn't quite get how album titles work.

[00:30]Or they understand it better than anyone ever has.

[00:35]This is the 40 Greatest Hits by Hank Williams.

[00:37]There's no messing around with that album title.

[00:38]Listen, guys, no messing around right now, by the way.

[00:41]This is one of our fast episodes.

[00:43]Listen.

[00:44]Yeah, we didn't talk about how to go through all 40 of these songs, so we should figure we should use some strategy.

[00:50]Dude, this is the best part of the podcast.

[00:52]We've made it this far where we don't give a shit.

[00:55]A year ago when we had James Brown's five CDs, we cared.

[00:59]This year, we don't.

[01:00]We don't care.

[01:00]We couldn't care less.

[01:01]And I just saw Avatar in 3D, so I can't wait for 4D Greatest Hits.

[01:06]I mean, it's on the album.

[01:06]Oh, yes.

[01:07]How was Avatar?

[01:08]That's the one I haven't seen yet.

[01:10]I was just lying, Aaron.

[01:11]God, you busted me.

[01:12]I haven't seen it.

[01:13]I kept wanting to take my kids to go see that 4D theater, you know, where it shakes and it, like, sprays water on you.

[01:18]Which, by the way, is gross if you have popcorn.

[01:20]You're, like, eating popcorn and water gets sprayed on your face, and you're like, ugh, I was eating.

[01:24]But they said, sir, you can't.

[01:26]What am I going to say?

[01:27]Something about being blue.

[01:28]Ah, never mind.

[01:29]I was going to do a blue penis joke, but I just don't have the energy for it, guys.

[01:32]Can you?

[01:32]Everybody at home, do me a favor.

[01:34]Can you make up your own Avatar blue penis joke just in your head?

[01:37]Just do it.

[01:38]Something about a theater, a popcorn box.

[01:40]Navi.

[01:42]Who do you think, out of the listeners that we know, has the best blue penis joke?

[01:47]Who has the best blue penis of our listeners?

[01:50]I would say the guy who lives in Alice Court in South St. Paul.

[01:53]I was going to go with Barry from Burnsville.

[01:57]I was thinking Brian in Woodbury.

[01:59]I got some sneaky good blue penis jokes.

[02:01]Barry from Burnsville might have a whole book of those types of jokes.

[02:05]Right.

[02:06]Can you imagine?

[02:07]The chapter on blue penis jokes?

[02:09]And he's like, finally, this is my time.

[02:11]I'm going to call that back line.

[02:12]All right.

[02:13]Let's turn on the radio.

[02:14]Guys, you know what?

[02:15]I love talking to you guys.

[02:16]From dumb shit listener to co-host.

[02:18]Sometimes I just want a vibe.

[02:20]Yeah, they'll see how hard it is to come in here and actually.

[02:22]Because when you, actually, if you want to practice to be my co-host, just at home, just act like you're on the podcast.

[02:27]And anytime you try to talk, I'll be talking.

[02:29]That's actually what it's a lot like to be my co-host on this.

[02:32]A lot of people don't realize this.

[02:34]I'm kind of driving the bus, but I'm also on the intercom of the bus telling everybody to shut up because I thought of a good joke that involves Avatar.

[02:40]And then actually, I don't have a joke.

[02:41]I was lying about that.

[02:42]Nor have you seen it, which is kind of disappointing.

[02:45]Yeah, it's the way it is.

[02:46]Reach into this.

[02:47]Although, Rob, your character side.

[02:48]The character Rob side.

[02:50]Hey, reach into this popcorn.

[02:52]I've got a blue slushie.

[02:54]I just don't have it.

[02:55]It's right there.

[02:56]It's so close.

[02:56]It's not cold like a slushie.

[02:59]It's not cold like a slushie.

[02:59]It's not cold like a slushie.

[02:59]It's so hot.

[03:00]It's boiling hot.

[03:01]But listen, no more.

[03:02]Okay, don't.

[03:03]I don't want to influence anybody's jokes that they're going to write in.

[03:05]A gray slushie?

[03:05]I've heard of that before.

[03:07]Let's turn on K-Rob.

[03:08]Let's just vibe.

[03:09]Let's just vibe, guys.

[03:10]What's up, everybody?

[03:11]Welcome to K-Rob.

[03:12]Sometimes Rob's bits at the end of the night are actually the best part.

[03:17]Some people don't stick around and listen to that part, but it's really good.

[03:20]Oh, yeah.

[03:21]I'm talking to these other three.

[03:25]I'm noticing they don't do improv with me.

[03:29]What?

[03:30]Shouldn't they realize Rob's bits bring delight.

[03:34]If you want a good podcast, Rob's always right.

[03:39]That sounds good.

[03:40]That sounds real good.

[03:41]Rob's always right.

[03:43]I'm always right.

[03:44]When he does a long bit at the end of the night, play along and it brings so much delight.

[03:54]These guys need to remember Rob's always right.

[03:59]A train going through a tunnel would be the perfect way to end this album.

[04:03]Not getting a lot of reaction from my co-hosts.

[04:06]If the show has seemed so sleepy, count on Rob to say something dirty.

[04:15]Rob always sets the so funny tone, so play along.

[04:23]Don't ever run.

[04:24]Rob's always right.

[04:29]He's always right.

[04:29]Rob's always right.

[04:30]Yeah.

[04:31]When he does a long bit at the end of the night, play along and it brings so much delight.

[04:40]You three guys need to remember Rob's always right.

[04:45]When you want to hear Rob's greatest album of all time.

[04:47]I don't know if you guys got the message of that song.

[04:49]You know what an amazing thing?

[04:51]I got to share.

[04:52]Matt shared a stat last week.

[04:54]I need to share a stat.

[04:55]Hank Williams wrote 128 songs in his career.

[04:59]Rob, you have...

[04:59]You definitely beat him.

[05:00]We're past 128.

[05:01]Oh!

[05:02]You wrote more songs than Hank Williams.

[05:04]I mean, that's something to hang your hat on, man.

[05:08]I do want to say, though, my first song wasn't until that Aretha album.

[05:12]So I haven't done 131 songs.

[05:14]I should go back.

[05:14]Are you counting the real filthy ones that only Matt and Aaron...

[05:19]No, I'm not.

[05:19]Those were filthy.

[05:20]I listened to those the other day.

[05:22]Those were so dirty.

[05:23]I was like, I cannot believe I disrespected everyone they love like that.

[05:26]Listen, this is Beck Did It Better.

[05:28]We are here.

[05:29]We are talking about Hank Williams, top 40 hits, okay?

[05:33]We're going Beck, Beck, Beck, Beck in time.

[05:36]And I'm not going to lie.

[05:37]Doing a double record with Portishead right to Hank Williams.

[05:39]A little bit of whiplash.

[05:40]But I've got Russell in Minnesota.

[05:42]Russell, how are you doing?

[05:43]Rob, why don't you mind your own business?

[05:45]I've got Matt.

[05:49]It's hurtful.

[05:50]Matt in Minneapolis, how are you doing?

[05:52]Rob, this podcast will make you weep.

[05:56]And I'm crying and I'm crying because I just want to go to bed.

[05:59]I'm going to sleep.

[06:00]You're up too late.

[06:01]Oh, yeah, Brian.

[06:02]Maybe Matt should be writing these songs, huh?

[06:04]And I've got Aaron out in California.

[06:07]Now, Aaron, Aaron, this is the thing, okay?

[06:10]He was telling me that Aaron was at the store the other day.

[06:12]And he was telling me a story that somebody at the store threw butter and milk at Aaron.

[06:18]Butter and milk?

[06:20]Yeah.

[06:21]How dare he?

[06:22]Aaron in California, how are you doing?

[06:24]Guys, I'm really excited to be on this podcast.

[06:29]Let's talk about it.

[06:31]Listen, I'm not going to lie, guys.

[06:35]We've got 40 fucking songs to get through.

[06:36]We've got to get this going.

[06:37]Let's get right into the voicemail.

[06:38]Rob, we just own this night.

[06:40]I've got to say, you know, remember in Vegas we were talking about,

[06:43]is this as good as it gets?

[06:44]I feel the moment, the place I'm at in my mindset right now is as good as it gets.

[06:50]I couldn't be happier.

[06:51]Russell is in a zone, fully in a zone.

[06:53]Every time you say, is this as good as it gets, it makes me want to take mommy's milk.

[06:57]I'm not going to lie.

[06:57]I'm not going to lie.

[07:00]I'm like, if Michael Jackson and Prince thought it was so good, maybe.

[07:05]You never know.

[07:06]Okay.

[07:07]You guys talked me out of lean, but I don't know.

[07:09]Mommy's milk.

[07:10]It's sounding better and better.

[07:11]Let's go to the voicemail.

[07:12]I don't understand why you will laugh at that joke if it's a Michael Jackson joke,

[07:15]but when it's a Prince, then you're not okay with it.

[07:18]Because I, I don't know.

[07:20]Ah, geez, Russell, you're really cutting to the heart of things now.

[07:24]Man, you're really making me think.

[07:26]They're both humans with families.

[07:28]You're right.

[07:28]Something to think about, Aaron.

[07:29]Geez.

[07:29]Legit, Aaron, you should try one of these daiquiris, homemade.

[07:32]They're perfect.

[07:33]If you'd send me one, I'd try it.

[07:35]Yeah.

[07:35]I'm just stuck on, I'm just drinking a jug of whiskey over here tonight for Hank.

[07:38]Hey, legit, my buddy Conrad Murray is coming over.

[07:41]He made me a drink for later, and I think it's going to be so good.

[07:43]But let's get into the voicemail.

[07:45]Excuse me, Dr. Conrad Murray.

[07:47]He gets mad when I don't say that.

[07:48]PhD.

[07:49]All right.

[07:49]Huh?

[07:50]PhD.

[07:51]Yeah, his dissertation was on mommy's milk.

[07:55]All right, moving on.

[07:59]Uh, long-paying listener, first-time caller, John from St. Olaf, from Moan.

[08:10]John from Moan?

[08:12]Yeah, I was with Rob on The White Tiger.

[08:15]Oh, my gosh.

[08:16]I was with Rob on Mike Pepin.

[08:17]Oh, my God.

[08:19]Russell, the love muscle, I miss you.

[08:22]Aaron, I remember when you had hair.

[08:25]Whoa.

[08:26]Matt.

[08:29]Boy, we played with some monkeys in the Netherlands in Dusseldorf.

[08:36]Oh, Dusseldorf.

[08:38]Good times.

[08:39]Dusseldorf is not in the Netherlands.

[08:41]Anyways, I was made aware of this podcast back at St. Olaf Function back in the fall.

[08:48]What?

[08:48]I've been listening ever since, catching up, listening live.

[08:51]It is a blast to hear your guys' stories and to hear what's going on.

[08:56]All of our stories.

[08:57]I love it.

[08:57]Keep it up.

[08:58]I love it.

[08:59]I listen from minute one to the very end.

[09:02]I'm not going to cherry pick.

[09:03]I can't miss the joke at the end.

[09:05]Funny stuff.

[09:08]A truly devoted listener.

[09:12]That goes down in history as the greatest call we have ever gotten.

[09:20]Yes.

[09:21]He only said nice stuff about us, and he said he listens to the show, which a lot of our listeners, I'm not clear that they actually listen to the whole show.

[09:29]So, thank you, John, for Moan.

[09:31]We do appreciate it.

[09:32]Wow.

[09:33]Wow.

[09:34]Great to hear from you.

[09:35]And I am not going to mention when you took a shit in somebody's yard and I saw somebody who drew the rock.

[09:39]That man is such a legend in our circle of friends, and I know that he and I never had more than three conversations together, and I'm so grateful that he still knows my name.

[09:49]I would not have been certain that he knows my name.

[09:52]You remember when you had hair.

[09:53]Well, I did.

[09:54]I had nice hair.

[09:55]I will never forget, and I have told this story a dozen times.

[09:59]And it never gets old.

[10:00]This guy collected chew spit.

[10:02]Senior year of college, he collected a chew spit in a cheese ball barrel.

[10:05]This is my number one Rob story, and this is it.

[10:07]He had it in a cheese ball barrel.

[10:10]It was a huge barrel, and it just sat in the middle of the pod, and everybody would just spit their chew spit into it.

[10:15]I mean, if my kids were doing that, I would fucking, I would go crazy.

[10:19]And back then, I thought it was so funny.

[10:21]Senior year, okay?

[10:23]Basically, the guy ahead of our grade says, hey, we're going to get together.

[10:26]We're going to get some champagne.

[10:27]Let's meet down and celebrate.

[10:29]We graduated college.

[10:29]This is unbelievable.

[10:30]If you guys can just give me like 10 bucks for the bottle of champagne, that'd be great.

[10:34]And instantly, we were outraged.

[10:35]What the fuck?

[10:36]We got to pay $10 for champagne?

[10:38]Ridiculous.

[10:39]This is absolutely outrageous, and we came up with a great idea, okay?

[10:44]And it was mostly John.

[10:44]He says, listen, I'm going to take this chew spit that we have been collecting all year, tobacco spit, and listen to the words that are about to come out of my mouth.

[10:54]I am going to go dump it on that guy.

[10:59]Now, you might be thinking to yourself, if you guys dump chew spit on a guy, you must have been arrested.

[11:05]I mean, that's disgusting.

[11:06]It's dangerous.

[11:07]You would never, like, just imagine right now, somebody dumps a barrel of chew spit on you tomorrow.

[11:13]That's not good.

[11:14]You would just like shave off your whole head, right?

[11:17]You'd go get all your skin, like, melted off with lasers.

[11:20]So what happened?

[11:20]Did you guys get it there, or what happened?

[11:22]First of all, not you guys.

[11:23]I didn't have any part to this.

[11:24]I was more of an observer, okay?

[11:26]I was like the UN coming in.

[11:27]I had the blue helmet on.

[11:28]I was looking, okay?

[11:29]I was impartial.

[11:31]I was Switzerland in this whole thing, okay?

[11:32]Is it wrong to dump chew spit on somebody?

[11:34]I wasn't quite sure.

[11:35]This guy takes the barrel of chew spit out.

[11:37]Believe it or not, he makes it exactly two steps out of the door before he then drops the barrel of chew spit, which, of course—

[11:45]Not out of the dorm, out of his pod.

[11:47]So he's in the hallway on the third floor.

[11:49]So we are in the hallway.

[11:50]Yeah, we are in the hallway.

[11:51]He takes two steps, immediately drops it.

[11:53]Now, of course, was there a top on it?

[11:54]Absolutely not.

[11:55]No top needed.

[11:56]He spilled it all over the hallway.

[11:58]You could look down the hallway, and you saw, like a mirage, the smell.

[12:03]And it was just like this.

[12:04]The air went hazy as it's coming at you.

[12:07]See the smell.

[12:07]As months of chew spit.

[12:09]Of my asthma.

[12:10]The odor hits you, okay?

[12:12]You saw—I saw—you don't want to talk about 4D.

[12:15]I was seeing into the future.

[12:16]I saw us doing this podcast when I smelled that.

[12:19]Smoking rivets.

[12:20]So here you are.

[12:21]Yeah, here you are.

[12:22]Chew spit all over the hallway.

[12:24]John Ramone gets the solution.

[12:26]He goes, listen, I got a perfect idea.

[12:27]He goes and gets it.

[12:28]He gets a fire extinguisher that somehow just shoots water.

[12:31]Never seen it before.

[12:32]Haven't seen it since.

[12:33]He then sprays the water onto the floor and cleans the chew spit into, like, a corner.

[12:38]To which we all say, good job.

[12:40]Perfect.

[12:41]And we walk away.

[12:42]Monsters.

[12:43]We were monsters.

[12:45]This is what you get when you just call and praise the podcast, is you get stories told like this.

[12:52]You got to have a question next time, John, from Moe.

[12:55]You got to have a question or else this is what happens.

[12:57]John called me today.

[12:58]I had no idea that John, he says Ramone.

[13:01]It's because he's running away.

[13:02]John lives in Edina now.

[13:03]So we need to really call him.

[13:04]Wait a minute now.

[13:05]He's not John Ramone any longer.

[13:08]He can afford the fancy barrels for his chew spit now.

[13:10]He's trying to run away from his heritage.

[13:13]He called you today, Matt.

[13:14]Well, he texted and he said, I think he said absolutely that Dookie's better than American Idiot.

[13:20]Wow.

[13:20]Or something like that.

[13:21]So I'm like, oh.

[13:22]And he goes, I'm just loving it.

[13:23]So I call him.

[13:24]I'm like, are you listening to this crap?

[13:26]I got to edit that.

[13:27]All right.

[13:28]So I call him and I say, John, you listen to this crap?

[13:33]Like, no way.

[13:34]He goes, this is the funny.

[13:35]He goes, I've here's my thing.

[13:37]I listen to the newest episode front to back.

[13:40]I hear the ding at the end.

[13:41]I hear I hear the joke at the end.

[13:42]I hear everything, you know, and then I go back and I started at one and I'm up to about number 20.

[13:47]And I go, oh, man, it's so funny.

[13:50]It's so funny.

[13:50]And for John, for me, Dinah to say that is so funny.

[13:53]He's funny.

[13:55]He is a funny guy.

[13:56]And so I think.

[13:58]I think, honestly, I said, you got to call in.

[14:00]I said, there's going to be some people that are going to be surprised that you're still alive, John.

[14:03]Some of the people that listen to this, they're going to be surprised that he's alive.

[14:07]So, no, I'm happy that he called in.

[14:09]Bringing people together.

[14:10]Beck did it better.

[14:10]Bringing people together.

[14:12]Can I tell a John from Moan story quick?

[14:14]John from Edina.

[14:16]He's John from Edina.

[14:17]John from Edina.

[14:18]So John from Edina.

[14:19]This is not as good as Rob's the barrel of cheese ball chew spit.

[14:23]It's a different.

[14:24]It's a different story.

[14:25]So one of our listeners.

[14:28]I believe it was Joe from Woodbury and Dan from St.

[14:31]Paul ish somewhere at this point.

[14:32]I would think had a house and they bought this house together when we were out of college.

[14:37]A bunch of us kind of bought houses together.

[14:40]We thought it would be good investment.

[14:41]It's better to buy than to rent.

[14:43]So they bought a house and they bought it on like New Year's Eve.

[14:46]They literally closed on New Year's Eve.

[14:48]And they were like, we're going to throw a huge party.

[14:51]If it gets messy and everything, we've got work to do in the house anyway.

[14:54]So they invite all these people over for New Year's Eve.

[14:57]There's probably like.

[14:58]30 people here for this party and John from Edina and some of his high school buddies show up and and one of them pulls out a penny and they say this is the magic penny and John and Edina and his three high school buddies proceeded to have literally wrestling matches and fights for like three or four hours over a magic penny because every guy needed to get the magic penny.

[15:22]So like feet are going through like walls like Cheetos are getting knocked over on floors.

[15:27]It was a complete shit show of a party because John from Edina and his buddies were having a blast fighting over a magic penny.

[15:34]Sounds about right.

[15:36]I mean, that's just par for the course.

[15:37]That's like an average story for John from Edina.

[15:40]Oh, I've got it.

[15:41]Was it?

[15:41]Was it?

[15:41]I think it was John where the picture where we're playing battle pong against each other.

[15:44]I got my shirt up over my head and we're taking huge swings and trying to hit each other with a ping pong ball.

[15:49]Classic cool guy stuff.

[15:52]So technically battle pong would be if you lost, you had to stand with your shirt up and let them wheel at you with the.

[15:57]Ping pong ball, right?

[15:58]Yep.

[15:58]Yep.

[15:59]My wife was so proud when she saw me do that.

[16:01]It's it accentuates everything that's good about me.

[16:03]Giving me a fourth nipple.

[16:04]Was she more proud of that or the upside down 69 you guys did last weekend?

[16:09]It wasn't upside down, Russell.

[16:11]We're not standing.

[16:12]Right side up.

[16:13]What's an upside down 69?

[16:15]Yeah.

[16:15]What is that, Russell?

[16:16]My wife and I actually, you know, you know what we actually do, Russell?

[16:19]We've changed it now.

[16:20]We do a 96.

[16:21]We just sleep back to back.

[16:23]I've got to get up early tomorrow.

[16:26]That's the night.

[16:27]This is 96.

[16:28]Hey, John, for me, Dinah, fantastic voicemail.

[16:32]Wow.

[16:32]Thank you.

[16:33]Nice to meet you, John, for me, Dinah.

[16:34]Glad you're alive.

[16:35]He did say he did say that the first 10 episodes and I and I've known John very long time because I had no idea that was you.

[16:44]I had no idea.

[16:46]He said it was Rob and it was Russell and it was Aaron.

[16:49]He said, but there's this Matt guy and I had no idea.

[16:52]He doesn't know your name.

[16:55]He said he finally told Charlie.

[16:57]At that church, because Charlie's the pastor.

[17:00]Oh, no.

[17:01]Charlie.

[17:01]Yeah.

[17:03]We don't have Charlie the pastor listening, do we?

[17:05]Yeah.

[17:06]He listens to everyone.

[17:07]No.

[17:07]Say it for us, please.

[17:09]Yeah.

[17:09]And so if I took him 10 episodes to know that it was me and he's like, I had no idea.

[17:14]I had no idea.

[17:15]I'm like, that's hilarious.

[17:17]That's a great story.

[17:18]Oh, my God.

[17:19]All right.

[17:20]Rolling going.

[17:21]Rosie, how's it rolling going with you?

[17:22]We are.

[17:23]You know what?

[17:23]This podcast, it is bringing people together, except for my marriage.

[17:27]Which is not going great because I'm staying up almost every night.

[17:30]So something to think about.

[17:31]But anyway, Rosie, how are you doing?

[17:33]Yeah, it's going really good.

[17:33]I've been listening to you.

[17:34]I've been listening to music, as we often do for this podcast.

[17:39]A couple things I've been into.

[17:41]I have a recommendation for you.

[17:42]It's called Portishead, Aaron.

[17:44]I might check that out.

[17:45]Maybe I should check that out.

[17:46]Once in a while, I got to go out and do some other stuff.

[17:49]So I have been listening to a Norman Connors record.

[17:54]So this is from 1974.

[17:57]I think Norman Connors.

[17:59]You are my starship, which features Michael Henderson on bass and vocals.

[18:02]Like, imagine this.

[18:04]Michael Henderson played bass for Miles Davis.

[18:07]Stevie Wonder also happens to be an incredible vocalist.

[18:11]So I've really been enjoying this record.

[18:13]Also.

[18:14]Yeah.

[18:14]Also, the all time right now.

[18:16]The all time steals leader in baseball, I believe.

[18:18]Right.

[18:19]Yeah.

[18:19]Yeah.

[18:20]Right.

[18:21]Right.

[18:21]Yeah.

[18:22]I just been vibing off of this record.

[18:24]I really love it.

[18:25]Henderson.

[18:26]Yeah.

[18:27]I got it.

[18:27]Russ.

[18:28]It's just beautiful music.

[18:32]Very smooth.

[18:33]Also feels like it turns out.

[18:35]Yeah.

[18:36]Rock.

[18:36]It is a little bit.

[18:37]Yeah.

[18:37]Rock.

[18:37]You're right, man.

[18:38]Is any on a yacht right here?

[18:40]He's on a yacht.

[18:40]Yes.

[18:41]This yacht belonged.

[18:42]The yacht on the cover art belongs to someone famous.

[18:46]I can't remember who it was now, but the yacht on the cover belongs to someone famous.

[18:50]But can you imagine being talented enough that you played bass for Miles Davis?

[18:54]And then you can also sing as well.

[18:57]Just for fun.

[18:57]And you can sing like Loser Vandross.

[19:00]I do like the chimes.

[19:03]So I can recommend this album to our listeners for sure.

[19:10]It's beautiful stuff.

[19:12]Who's the football coach tree?

[19:15]Like we always talk about the tree, right?

[19:17]And somebody's got to have who's like the best tree because Miles Davis has to be the

[19:21]best like musician tree that there is out there, right?

[19:25]Yes.

[19:25]Everybody playing in his band.

[19:26]And going off from Coltrane to this guy to all these drummers and stuff.

[19:31]I mean, you're right.

[19:32]No, because Miles Davis has Coltrane, Herbie Hancock, Wayne Shorter, Tony Williams.

[19:37]Yeah, that's a good one, man.

[19:40]So he's like Urban Meyer or whatever it is.

[19:43]But yeah, I'm going to throw out the Yardbirds, Jamie Page, Jeff Beck, Eric Clapton.

[19:49]There you go.

[19:50]That's a good tree.

[19:52]Yeah, you're absolutely right, man.

[19:54]So that's it.

[19:56]I mean, we got it.

[19:56]We got to keep it short tonight because we got 40 songs to get through it.

[19:59]The only other thing I want to get you guys advice on is what if you are taking your car

[20:06]to an appointment to get the oil changed and what happens if you fart in the car on the

[20:13]way to the appointment?

[20:15]Put the windows down.

[20:16]What do you do?

[20:16]What do you do?

[20:17]You put the windows down.

[20:18]Let them.

[20:19]No.

[20:19]That's their tip.

[20:20]Alabama said that.

[20:21]Put the windows down.

[20:23]Turn the radio up.

[20:24]Let the wind.

[20:25]Oh, you don't have any hair.

[20:26]I'm at the point.

[20:26]I'm at the point in life where I no longer take a car to a dealer for I take it to Jiffy

[20:31]Lube or whatever.

[20:31]I take it to like the discount place.

[20:33]I don't take it to the dealer.

[20:34]I don't.

[20:35]Hold on.

[20:36]So you think they just want to smell farts because they're a discount place?

[20:39]No, no, no.

[20:39]Hold on.

[20:39]I'm getting there.

[20:40]You got to give me a second.

[20:41]You got to give me a second.

[20:42]When you go to Jiffy Lube, they're still in a post-COVID world where you don't get out

[20:47]of your car.

[20:48]You sit in your car.

[20:49]You pull in.

[20:50]You can sit there and listen to the radio the whole time.

[20:52]You are in your car the whole time.

[20:54]You give them your credit card through the window.

[20:56]You don't even get out of your car at a Jiffy Lube anymore.

[20:59]So they're under the car and you're sitting in it?

[21:02]Yes.

[21:02]That's too erotic for me.

[21:04]That's wild.

[21:04]I could not do that.

[21:05]Like knowing there's a guy under me like working with a thing and like wrenching on shit and

[21:09]like moving oil back and forth.

[21:11]I'd be like, hmm.

[21:11]It's pretty perverted, isn't it?

[21:14]It's pretty perverted.

[21:15]Yeah.

[21:15]You roll down the window.

[21:16]You're like, this is pretty perverted.

[21:17]But Russell, you said you're at a point in your life where you no longer take it to the

[21:23]dealership.

[21:23]You go to the Jiffy Lube.

[21:24]I know better.

[21:24]I don't need to take it to the dealership.

[21:26]Right?

[21:26]Just take it.

[21:27]But isn't, I am, I have always taken it to the Jiffy Lube and I'm now starting to take

[21:32]it to the dealership because I'm like, huh?

[21:35]You're going the other way.

[21:36]I thought it was, I thought it was the old, the old men always take it, you know, they

[21:40]always get their tires changed at the dealership.

[21:41]They don't go to like discount tire or whatever.

[21:43]You know, they do the, you know, it costs 200 bucks to get your oil changed at the dealer.

[21:47]It costs 89 bucks at the Jiffy Lube or something like that.

[21:50]You know what it is for me, Matt?

[21:51]I don't want to, I don't want to make an appointment.

[21:53]When I want to go, I want to go and just get shit done.

[21:55]I don't want to go into a dealer.

[21:56]I'm going to be like, Hey, we can, we can see you in like eight months.

[21:59]Like, like they're, uh, like they're a doctor or something like that.

[22:03]Just fucking change my oil.

[22:05]You know what the hell?

[22:05]So I'm taking it to Jiffy Lube.

[22:06]Smell my farts.

[22:07]Yeah.

[22:08]Smell my farts.

[22:08]Yeah.

[22:09]But you guys know me.

[22:10]I mean, I, I, I took it to the, I mean, you saw my picture.

[22:12]I took it to the dealership.

[22:14]I threw the bike on the, on the, on the rack, brought my bike along.

[22:18]So I can go out.

[22:18]You did show us what you had for lunch too.

[22:19]I can go out for lunch.

[22:21]You know, you get some tacos and then, you know, so I made the appointment.

[22:24]Much better than that sandwich.

[22:25]Okay.

[22:26]We need to, we need to discuss Aaron's lunch.

[22:28]We've been talking about it for a couple of weeks.

[22:30]Aaron sent a picture of a, uh, sandwich, a tuna fish sandwich.

[22:34]A half a sandwich.

[22:35]It was a half a sandwich.

[22:35]And it was kind of a triangle on a white plate.

[22:38]By the way, spotless plate.

[22:40]Like everything was spotless.

[22:41]And a spotless desk.

[22:43]And a spotless desk.

[22:44]There's nothing on the desk either.

[22:46]It's just a white desk.

[22:47]I feel bad because I think Aaron, I think I have opened up the door for everyone to make fun of Aaron.

[22:51]I think like, it's kind of my thing and people are kind of stealing it.

[22:54]It's kind of my thing.

[22:54]It's kind of like stolen valor, kind of.

[22:56]They're kind of stealing my making fun of Aaron Valor.

[22:59]And they, they, Aaron sends a picture of just a sandwich and he says, I put celery in this, this time.

[23:04]It really pumps it up.

[23:06]It's true.

[23:06]You have to imagine this is a white plate with a half sandwich on a white desk.

[23:10]And it's a very thin sandwich.

[23:12]It's not like a, it's not like a stacked high.

[23:14]Yeah.

[23:15]You, you can barely see that there's any sort of layer of.

[23:17]It's like a multi-grain.

[23:18]Was it, was it a tuna salad?

[23:20]What was the.

[23:20]It was just tuna on, it was just tuna on white bread.

[23:23]It was, but it was, it was a.

[23:24]It was a whole can of tuna.

[23:25]I'll have you know.

[23:26]As you know, I, I only make whole can tuna sandwiches.

[23:29]Nothing else.

[23:30]I don't.

[23:30]No, nothing else.

[23:32]No chips, no nothing.

[23:33]It was just a sandwich and Aaron sent it.

[23:35]And immediately everybody blasted Aaron.

[23:37]Just immediately they said, this lunch sucks.

[23:39]This looks terrible.

[23:41]And then I said, your job looks bad.

[23:43]Cause like the desk was depressing to look at the whole thing.

[23:45]So then the next day we all decided we were going to send pictures of our lunch that day

[23:49]to see what it's like.

[23:50]Now, Matt did the honorable thing, tried to make his own sad sandwich to match Aaron's,

[23:53]which I appreciated.

[23:54]Aaron, meanwhile, hoodwinked all of us, all of a sudden his ass is going to a taco place

[24:01]and he's getting these delicious looking tacos, totally flipped the script.

[24:04]And then he said, quote unquote, I am also Valentine day shopping.

[24:07]Okay.

[24:08]And he was going to a sex shop.

[24:10]He was eating tacos at a sex shop.

[24:14]No, it was the marquee was tacos, El Patron, and then a lingerie spot at the same, in the

[24:20]same little, you know, there's also actually, there's actually, I could have got my car

[24:24]washed.

[24:24]Except it was in the shop up the bike trail.

[24:26]Although I have to say guys, this bike trail, I'm here for the, uh, the, uh, the, uh, brisket

[24:33]tacos and also, um, some crotchless chaps.

[24:36]Can you make that happen?

[24:38]We only serve assless chaps.

[24:40]Yeah.

[24:41]I actually felt very appropriate for like a Hank Williams type, uh, you know, I'll take

[24:45]a lingua.

[24:46]Can I get the lingua with a mild and then what's something that's going to help me fuck

[24:51]my wife so hard later.

[24:54]Yeah, something to boost.

[24:57]Yay.

[24:57]Yeah.

[24:58]But I, I want to be able to pull it to the side.

[25:00]Oh, thanks.

[25:00]Is this the, uh, yeah.

[25:01]Oh yeah.

[25:01]I was, I was so, I was so thrilled when Rob was like, well, everyone should post their

[25:07]lunch tomorrow because I already had that plan.

[25:09]Like I knew what my, I knew what my lunch was going to be the next day when Rob was

[25:13]like, but then also the lingerie spot was there.

[25:16]I did not buy anything at the lingerie.

[25:17]I have a little postscript to that story.

[25:18]By the way, I then told everyone at work, Hey, my friend group, we're all posting what

[25:23]we're eating for lunch.

[25:24]I bet.

[25:24]I told three different people at work.

[25:25]They all gave me the exact same look of like, Oh, and I was like, what?

[25:31]No, this is fun.

[25:32]This is my life.

[25:33]Now we post pictures of the lunch and it's cool.

[25:35]We have a, can I get a, can I get a quesadilla and a bottle of the high fructose fructose

[25:40]corn syrup or what else?

[25:41]What else can I get at this store?

[25:42]Right?

[25:43]Yeah.

[25:43]Hey, uh, I, we need to get, uh, yeah.

[25:47]Load me up with more of those brown condoms, please.

[25:49]And, uh, and on that note, we don't have time for all this.

[25:53]So let's go.

[25:54]Let's see what, how it's rolling going with Matt.

[25:56]Uh, good.

[25:58]I just, I, I knew we were going to be long.

[26:00]So I just have one quick little topic.

[26:01]I think my, my kids are, have I, have I told you guys my plan for retirement?

[26:06]No.

[26:07]All I want to do, I don't care where I'm at.

[26:09]I just want to go out to dinner every night.

[26:11]I just don't want to cook dinner.

[26:13]I just want to be able to go.

[26:14]I love it.

[26:14]I just want to be able to, you know, even if it's just a bowl of chili somewhere or

[26:18]something or a nice steak, whatever.

[26:20]I just want to go out to dinner every night.

[26:21]Oh, I love that idea.

[26:22]So on the weekends, I.

[26:24]I love going out to dinner.

[26:26]It's not the most economical thing, but it's, you know, there's, there's worse vices in

[26:30]life.

[26:30]Matt, Matt, you can get rid of Aaron and Rob.

[26:32]If, if the marriage has ever happened on the podcast, I'm going to go out to dinner.

[26:36]We might be able to make it work.

[26:38]Well, my, my kids are finally at an age where they're ruining my weekends because I live

[26:44]for like Friday night at pizza Luce or, you know, going to some of these things like that.

[26:49]Like just, let's just go.

[26:50]We'll get there early.

[26:51]We'll get our food, have a beer.

[26:53]We'll get out.

[26:54]We'll get out all that stuff, you know?

[26:55]Right.

[26:55]It's just, it kills time.

[26:56]Well, now my kids, they are at the age where they want to play outside and then they got

[27:03]friends that are coming over and then they don't really want to go out to dinner.

[27:06]So my kids are ruining my dreams, guys.

[27:09]They're just ruining my dreams.

[27:10]So then you, so then you're stuck.

[27:12]It's five o'clock and you're like, the kids are going to get hungry.

[27:14]And they're like, Hey, we want to keep playing.

[27:15]I'm like, well, I guess we're making, you know, whatever's in the fridge.

[27:18]Load up the air fryer again, you know, figure out something.

[27:21]That's sad.

[27:21]And so now I, they're ruining my day.

[27:23]They're ruining my life.

[27:24]So I don't know.

[27:24]Do you eat Rosie, your kids, Rob?

[27:27]I know.

[27:27]Do they ruin anything for you?

[27:29]Like just right off hand.

[27:30]I should have asked you guys this beforehand, but anything you can think of like instantly

[27:34]that they're ruining for your lives.

[27:35]This fucking horse shit with dinner and my kids, I swear to God, I, my kid called the

[27:41]other day and she goes, what's for dinner.

[27:43]And I was like, what, what, what do you care?

[27:46]Whatever it is, you're going to eat it.

[27:47]Like that's.

[27:48]And I said to her, I'm making steak and mashed potatoes.

[27:50]She goes, Hmm.

[27:51]I was like, what?

[27:53]Hmm.

[27:53]What?

[27:53]What are you even thinking about?

[27:54]You're making steak?

[27:55]Yeah.

[27:56]I was like, what are you possibly going to say after she goes, oh, okay.

[28:00]Kids don't like steak.

[28:01]That's right.

[28:02]My kids, my kids, my kids like steak.

[28:04]Kids love steak.

[28:05]Yeah, they do.

[28:06]And, and, and they'll just, and then they come in there like, oh, I don't really like

[28:10]hamburgers.

[28:10]And I'm like, this is not a bar and grill.

[28:12]I am not taking orders right now.

[28:14]Like you can eat this or you can make ramen for yourself.

[28:17]Like, I don't know what it is.

[28:18]And when they were gone to Hawaii, I came home whenever I wanted.

[28:23]And I made whatever I wanted for dinner and not a single person complained much

[28:27]because it was just me.

[28:28]It was wonderful.

[28:29]God, it was great.

[28:32]Can I have a, I have a complaint to lodge.

[28:35]All right.

[28:36]When we go to Vegas, I'm told like, Hey, we're not, we're not going to the

[28:42]restaurant.

[28:42]Matt, Matt does this thing.

[28:43]He gets his crab legs.

[28:44]Well, like I'm, I'm a foodie.

[28:46]I love going to fun restaurants.

[28:48]I love going to like new spots.

[28:49]When we're in Vegas, it's very much like we gamble.

[28:52]We watch sports.

[28:53]We gamble on sports and buy like pizza at the stand.

[28:56]We, we never have gone to like a fancy restaurant or done anything like that.

[29:00]We never, we need to, we need to make a change and we got it.

[29:03]We got to step it up.

[29:03]And you guys know, I would love to do that.

[29:05]And then I see Matt goes to Vegas like two weeks later and he's like, Oh,

[29:09]I went to this fancy steakhouse.

[29:10]I'm like, what the fuck is going on here?

[29:12]Like when I went, I will give Matt credit.

[29:15]Matt did go give us the burgers from Gordon Ramsey's.

[29:18]I was like, that was awesome.

[29:19]Those were very good.

[29:20]But like, I am all about like going to like all these

[29:23]steakhouses going to like the new restaurants.

[29:24]But whenever I kind of float that stuff, you guys kind of just bulldoze.

[29:28]It's just not happening on our trips.

[29:30]Now Matt goes to Vegas a week later and he does the exact thing that I would

[29:33]love to do.

[29:33]No, we need to make it happen.

[29:35]To be fair, you know, like our, our collective relationship with Vegas is

[29:41]all about doing whatever you want to do.

[29:42]Right.

[29:42]It's true.

[29:43]Like if we're going to get a reservation and try to get everybody on board

[29:46]to go like at seven o'clock to this place.

[29:49]Right.

[29:49]I mean, we're going to have like me tough.

[29:52]A third of us.

[29:53]A third of us be great.

[29:54]Yep.

[29:54]We're all on board.

[29:55]Yeah.

[29:55]The third to be like, eh, whatever, you know, I'm fine.

[29:57]There's going to be a third of them that are going to be like, I don't want to be here.

[30:00]I'd rather be sitting, watching the Packers or something, you know?

[30:03]And so I don't know.

[30:05]And then I think, you know, like the way we do dinners, there's going to be one six that's

[30:09]like, I don't want to be here.

[30:10]I want to watch the Packers.

[30:11]I don't want to see who it is.

[30:12]Yeah.

[30:12]We're not stuck.

[30:13]I mean, we're not stuck having to talk to each other and like look across the table

[30:17]and try to make conversation.

[30:18]We have a flexible, flexible crew.

[30:20]People can do what they want.

[30:20]And if somebody is getting bored, they can just go take a nap.

[30:23]I just think we're really drunk by about 3 p.m.

[30:26]And at that point, then all of a sudden, like the hours between 3 p.m. and 8 p.m. in Las

[30:31]Vegas, just go like that.

[30:32]And all of a sudden you're like, well, it's 8 p.m.

[30:34]And now I'm super drunk and I've either lost some money or I'm winning some money.

[30:37]And then you're going to just grab whatever you can to keep yourself going until 2 a.m.

[30:42]I would rather stab myself in the nuts with a fork than go out to eat with you guys in

[30:47]Vegas.

[30:47]That's kind of what I was thinking.

[30:50]Oh, yeah.

[30:50]I mean.

[30:50]Guys, we're just going to ruin Russell's dream by, you know, that descriptive.

[30:56]No, no, no.

[30:57]You can.

[30:57]Russell's gone on his own.

[30:58]He spent a week out there.

[30:59]He went to lots of shows and got his dinner.

[31:01]That's where you get it, Russell.

[31:02]It's not with us.

[31:03]See, what I'm saying, Matt, Rob, is Steve rolling my dreams here.

[31:06]What did he get for a week?

[31:07]He got what for a week?

[31:08]Listen, you're going to go right from having vodka Red Bulls at the tables to going and

[31:12]getting like a $300 steak.

[31:14]Like that doesn't make sense.

[31:15]It's Vegas.

[31:16]Your palate's going to be fried.

[31:17]What I have found, Russell, and you know this, what I have found, you just you got to find

[31:20]one other person.

[31:20]One other person to go on an adventure with.

[31:23]And if you happen to get two, you know, like, oh, that's a lucky day.

[31:27]But you just got to find one to go on your adventure with.

[31:29]With crab legs, I got to go.

[31:31]I just I find one person.

[31:33]This year it was Joe.

[31:34]Joe from Woodbury went, you know, so he's off for four years now.

[31:37]One of you guys is going to have to go.

[31:38]Rob was two years ago when we went.

[31:41]So, Russell, you're probably up next in line.

[31:43]You're going to have to go next year with me.

[31:44]Matt, I'm understanding you said you got to find another person.

[31:48]So next time I go to Vegas with my Vegas traveler, you're saying.

[31:50]I need to find a third.

[31:52]Oh, depends on where it depends on how everything's going.

[31:57]I mean, sometimes, sometimes variety is the spice of life.

[32:01]Yeah.

[32:01]You can't eat that slice of pizza every night, right?

[32:04]You got to get up and move around every once in a while.

[32:06]That's some smart shit, isn't it?

[32:08]That was Matt's smart comment of the week.

[32:11]That was Matt's smart comment of the week.

[32:13]Have a threesome with your spouse.

[32:14]Oh, yeah.

[32:17]My luck.

[32:18]I'm telling you, my luck is that I have a threesome.

[32:20]And the guy.

[32:20]The guy would look like me.

[32:21]And I'd be like, well, what's the point of this?

[32:23]I could buy a mirror.

[32:24]You know what I mean?

[32:24]Like, I don't need to see this.

[32:26]I feel like that's the second time this has come up where.

[32:28]Rob assumes that the threesome is another guy who looks like him.

[32:33]I wanted to be a boss guy.

[32:34]That's all.

[32:35]I'm pretty sure I have done that bit before, actually.

[32:37]So listen to those of you who are working back through our catalog backwards.

[32:41]Wait till you get to that bit where I talk about some hot guy.

[32:43]Some guy who looks like me banging his wife.

[32:45]It's hilarious.

[32:46]People love it.

[32:47]Rolling going.

[32:49]How's it going with me?

[32:50]Since nobody said it.

[32:50]Rude, by the way.

[32:51]Robbie, how's rolling going?

[32:55]How's it going?

[32:55]Robbie.

[32:56]Don't be a brat, Robbie.

[32:58]Has anyone ever called you Robbie?

[33:00]The brat did.

[33:01]No, I've been called Robbie.

[33:05]No, I'm not going to call you that.

[33:07]I'm not going to call you Rob or Big Rob or Rob or Robbie.

[33:11]Robbie.

[33:11]You know, I wanted you guys to do improv with me.

[33:14]And now I'm regretting that.

[33:15]Because actually, I'm trying to tell a story.

[33:18]And you guys are interrupting me.

[33:19]Rude.

[33:20]Because we're brats.

[33:21]We're just brats.

[33:22]You don't want us to talk about what you're talking about.

[33:24]Oh, you're going to drive home real fast, huh, Robbie?

[33:26]You guys are being fucking brats.

[33:29]And it turns me on so bad.

[33:30]Robbie.

[33:33]I was testing the waters with my work drinks I was having,

[33:38]a la last episode, when my opening joke was,

[33:41]yeah, I'm doing jujitsu, but it's tough because every time I get choked out,

[33:43]I get a massive erection.

[33:44]And I was like, well, we're going to see who's in it for the money on this work drink trip.

[33:50]I'll tell you right now.

[33:50]And then one of the guys is like, I'm 46 and I'm dating a 23-year-old.

[33:54]And I was like, all right, we're in.

[33:55]Next time when we go to Vegas, instead of bringing all the leather belts,

[34:00]I'll bring a couple blue belts, brown belts,

[34:02]whatever color belts can make it work for you, right?

[34:04]Trust me, I get choked out with everything.

[34:07]It wouldn't even be erotic to me.

[34:09]It happens so much.

[34:10]Speaking about going out.

[34:13]No, pause.

[34:14]What?

[34:15]We've never talked about this on the podcast.

[34:17]I mentioned this in the text, Shane.

[34:19]You've been doing jujitsu for a few weeks.

[34:20]Yeah, I'll do that for my role.

[34:22]I would love to hear about your jujitsu on the podcast

[34:24]because people need to know that you've been doing this.

[34:26]I don't think you've told anyone you've been doing it.

[34:28]So picture this, okay?

[34:30]I'm just going to describe me real quick.

[34:31]Huge penis.

[34:33]Just huge.

[34:34]Okay?

[34:35]And it's red hot.

[34:36]It's like a cigar.

[34:37]Brown at the end, red hot at one end.

[34:39]Rob, show her and a grower.

[34:41]Show her and a grower.

[34:42]Okay?

[34:43]And I've got my own curtain call, if you know what I mean.

[34:45]I don't know what that means.

[34:46]Never mind.

[34:46]I forget I said that.

[34:47]Nobody understands what you're talking about.

[34:49]Here's the thing.

[34:50]I have, I have, I'm a power lifter, but I started,

[34:53]I was like, I want to do something fun.

[34:54]And I've always been into MMA.

[34:55]Not always, but lately I have been.

[34:57]So I was like, I'm going to go learn how to do jujitsu.

[34:59]Right?

[35:00]So the practices go like this.

[35:02]You practice a move.

[35:03]Okay?

[35:04]And this is a move of like, okay, you're inside mount

[35:06]or you're on top of the guy or the guy's on top of you.

[35:08]And this is how you do it.

[35:09]Then for the last half hour, you basically wrestle somebody

[35:13]and you wrestle until they either submit you

[35:16]by putting you in a joint lock or an arm lock or a choke hold.

[35:20]And you tap out and that's it.

[35:23]Like, that's how you try to wrestle.

[35:24]Now, imagine wrestling somebody who's trying to choke you out

[35:28]when you have no idea how to do any move

[35:30]unless they're perfectly where you practiced earlier that day.

[35:33]That's the only move you can do.

[35:35]It's got to be intimidating too

[35:37]when they're probably your size, especially, right?

[35:39]Rob, like you're probably wrestling people

[35:41]that are just as big as you the whole time, right?

[35:43]Absolutely not.

[35:45]These guys are tiny.

[35:47]They are like little tiny Brazilian guys

[35:49]and they are, you know,

[35:50]are blowing my shit up every day.

[35:53]Literally, the last three practices,

[35:56]my elbow has hurt so bad from being bent the wrong way.

[35:59]I am paying money to go in

[36:01]and have my elbow bent the wrong way.

[36:03]Guys are choking me.

[36:05]Now, did you know you could do this?

[36:06]Guys are choking me with my own uniform.

[36:09]I wore the gi.

[36:10]They then, when I'm wrestling,

[36:11]they undo the gi, wrap it around my neck and choke me.

[36:14]And I have to tap out.

[36:15]They might need to rename the Tommy Johnsters

[36:19]or either the Robbies.

[36:20]It's surgery.

[36:21]Listen,

[36:24]there is nothing like getting choked out.

[36:27]You just, you have somebody basically choke you out,

[36:29]totally dominate you.

[36:30]You immediately have to get up and just start again.

[36:32]Like, do you know what that's like?

[36:34]It's just like just getting dominated

[36:37]and having to just start it all over again.

[36:39]So it's,

[36:39]I was just going to say,

[36:40]is this one of those things where

[36:41]they tell you upfront this is going to happen

[36:43]or do you realize this is going to happen?

[36:45]And they're like, look,

[36:45]first three months, horrible.

[36:48]No.

[36:48]This is kind of a weeding out period.

[36:49]Like it,

[36:50]I mean,

[36:51]eventually you're going to be in a spot

[36:53]where you're the choke

[36:54]or not the chokie.

[36:56]Is that how it works?

[36:57]Nice.

[36:57]Hey, Matt,

[36:58]I'm going to get my diagram out.

[37:00]If you can repeat that.

[37:01]I will be the choker.

[37:02]You're the choker,

[37:04]not the chokie.

[37:05]Yeah.

[37:06]Let's see.

[37:06]Well,

[37:07]it was Valentine's day last week,

[37:09]so we'll keep it the way it should be this week.

[37:11]But I mean,

[37:12]it's real fun.

[37:12]Can you feel yourself getting better?

[37:14]I mean,

[37:14]you've done it for a couple of weeks now,

[37:16]a few weeks,

[37:16]five weeks.

[37:17]I have gotten better.

[37:18]I've gotten better because now,

[37:20]I've only gotten choked out

[37:21]about three times a practice

[37:22]instead of dozens of times

[37:24]the first couple of times I went.

[37:25]So I am now staying alive.

[37:27]Describe what choking out is like.

[37:29]Is the world going dark

[37:30]as you're getting choked out?

[37:31]Is it like,

[37:32]like my horizon is narrowing?

[37:36]You know,

[37:36]as soon as they put an arm around your neck

[37:38]and start squeezing,

[37:39]you tap because you can feel it coming

[37:41]and it's terrifying.

[37:42]It's absolutely like you can tell it,

[37:44]say,

[37:44]oh,

[37:44]it's not a big deal,

[37:45]but you feel that

[37:46]and you feel like,

[37:47]oh,

[37:47]this would kill me if it kept going.

[37:49]Like I need to stop doing,

[37:50]like immediately it's rough

[37:53]and that's not as bad

[37:54]as getting your elbow bent the wrong way.

[37:55]Are there dickheads you work with

[37:58]that like are really out to hurt

[38:01]or is it kind of a good community?

[38:02]My guess is those people

[38:04]are out of there in a practice.

[38:05]If you're a dickhead,

[38:06]you don't last, right?

[38:07]You don't last

[38:08]and then somebody good,

[38:09]like there's,

[38:09]because you know,

[38:10]there's black belts there too.

[38:11]They'll go and get them

[38:12]and beat them up

[38:12]and like that happens,

[38:13]but everybody there is so nice.

[38:15]So you'll have like a guy

[38:16]and he'll be like,

[38:17]oh,

[38:17]you want to try this?

[38:17]You want to try this?

[38:18]Here,

[38:18]let me show you.

[38:19]And then he's like,

[38:19]okay,

[38:20]now let's just

[38:20]roll.

[38:20]And then he immediately

[38:21]wraps your gi around your neck

[38:23]and chokes you out.

[38:23]And you're like,

[38:23]what?

[38:24]I thought we were friends.

[38:24]No,

[38:27]it's,

[38:27]I mean,

[38:27]every,

[38:27]it really is great.

[38:28]I highly recommend

[38:29]anybody goes and do it.

[38:30]I think,

[38:30]I think it's,

[38:31]it's an incredible workout.

[38:33]You're just dying by the end of it,

[38:34]but it's so fun.

[38:35]It really is fun.

[38:36]Robin,

[38:36]have you developed

[38:37]like a signature move yet?

[38:38]Like,

[38:38]do you have a Superman punch?

[38:40]Do you have like a triangle choke?

[38:41]What's your signature move?

[38:42]I have a cool signature move

[38:43]where I'm on my knees

[38:44]and elbows face down,

[38:45]putting my arms up around my neck

[38:48]to protect it

[38:48]from beginning choked out

[38:49]because the guy is on top of me.

[38:51]You're fighting the hands,

[38:52]you're fighting the hands,

[38:53]right?

[38:53]Yeah.

[38:54]And then they grab my arm

[38:55]and bend it the wrong way.

[38:56]As I mentioned earlier,

[38:58]it's,

[38:58]it's rough.

[38:59]Have you,

[38:59]have you ever had any moments

[39:01]where like 130 pound guy

[39:02]has made you whimper?

[39:03]Like if you had a whimper?

[39:05]Yeah,

[39:05]of course.

[39:05]I've had multiple 130 pound guys

[39:07]wrap their legs around my neck

[39:08]and choke me

[39:09]with my arm up like this.

[39:11]So my arm is up by my head.

[39:13]Their legs are around my neck

[39:14]and tapping me

[39:15]and I have to be like,

[39:15]tap,

[39:16]tap,

[39:16]tap.

[39:16]But you're like,

[39:18]I mean,

[39:18]you're,

[39:18]we've talked about this.

[39:19]You're a lot stronger than

[39:20]you can put your credit for.

[39:22]You're a very strong guy.

[39:23]John from Edina

[39:24]would not think he's that strong.

[39:25]You're probably the strongest guy

[39:27]in the gym

[39:28]at any given time,

[39:28]right?

[39:29]And it doesn't matter

[39:30]because of leverage

[39:31]and other things.

[39:31]Does muscle strength

[39:32]have nothing to do with it?

[39:33]No,

[39:34]it doesn't.

[39:35]It really doesn't.

[39:36]Like you can,

[39:36]I can,

[39:37]I can cheat a little bit

[39:38]and like if I get on top of somebody,

[39:39]I can kind of just sit there

[39:41]and they'll get tired.

[39:41]But at some point

[39:43]I'm on top of somebody

[39:43]and the next thing I know

[39:44]they are bending my arm

[39:46]the wrong way once again,

[39:47]as I have mentioned.

[39:48]Rob,

[39:48]you should,

[39:49]there's,

[39:49]there's this,

[39:50]I do know a little bit about MMA

[39:52]and there's,

[39:52]there's a group,

[39:53]I think it's called

[39:54]the Donaher Death Squad

[39:55]and it's this jujitsu group

[39:57]and their main goal

[39:58]is all ankle locks.

[39:59]Their goal is just to like

[40:00]rip people's feet off.

[40:02]You should be the guy

[40:03]in the class

[40:04]who becomes the ankle guy.

[40:05]So when they think

[40:06]they're about to

[40:07]brush your elbow,

[40:08]all of a sudden

[40:08]you grab a foot

[40:09]and you just start

[40:10]ripping people's ankles apart.

[40:11]You know,

[40:11]I don't even think

[40:12]they teach ankle locks

[40:13]until you get up levels

[40:14]because I think it's like

[40:15]legitimately dangerous.

[40:16]It is dangerous.

[40:18]My ankle hurts

[40:19]just you saying that,

[40:19]Russell.

[40:20]My ankle hurts

[40:20]when I get up in the morning.

[40:21]Like my first couple steps,

[40:22]I'm like,

[40:23]what the fuck did I do

[40:24]to my ankle?

[40:25]Goddamn.

[40:25]It's terrible.

[40:27]Oh,

[40:28]also just to let you know too,

[40:30]it turns out that

[40:30]when you get like

[40:31]Matt Burns on your hand,

[40:32]okay,

[40:32]no offense Matt,

[40:33]but when you get Matt Burns,

[40:34]they don't go away

[40:35]for like days.

[40:36]So I just have random sores

[40:38]all over my body.

[40:39]Okay.

[40:40]And I can't tell my,

[40:40]now it's,

[40:41]I was like,

[40:41]sweetie,

[40:42]it's not from the Peloton seat.

[40:43]It was from jujitsu.

[40:44]Russell,

[40:45]rolling going.

[40:46]How's it going with you?

[40:47]Oh,

[40:47]here's a question.

[40:48]So I'm going out with,

[40:49]let's say they're a weekend person

[40:52]that loves to go out

[40:53]and go out on the town.

[40:54]A weekend person tomorrow.

[40:56]And we're going out

[40:57]with this weekend person's friends

[40:59]for one of their birthdays.

[41:00]And so I've met a few of these people

[41:03]at like happy hours,

[41:06]hung out on like even New Year's Eve,

[41:09]a small group of people

[41:10]where I've kind of gotten

[41:11]to know these people.

[41:11]Very nice people.

[41:12]Everyone's nice,

[41:13]fun to hang out with.

[41:14]But now it's one of their birthdays.

[41:16]There's going to be,

[41:17]there's going to be

[41:17]all these extended people.

[41:18]How do you handle going to like a dinner

[41:21]or a happy hour

[41:22]or that type of thing

[41:23]where literally it's just

[41:25]all these people that you don't know

[41:27]and you're just kind of on the outside?

[41:29]Are you allowed to just get liquored up

[41:30]and do your own thing?

[41:32]Or what's your style

[41:34]when it comes to those type of events?

[41:35]Lay low.

[41:37]You got to play the double L, Russell.

[41:39]You got to lay low.

[41:40]If you get drunk,

[41:42]that's who you are

[41:43]for the rest of their knowledge of you.

[41:45]Like no matter what.

[41:47]That doesn't,

[41:47]I don't care.

[41:48]That doesn't bother me.

[41:49]I,

[41:51]you're like,

[41:53]I would just lay low.

[41:54]It's like the,

[41:55]it's like Linus from Motions 11, right?

[41:56]It's like be,

[41:57]be pleasant,

[41:58]but not memorable

[41:59]or whatever the,

[42:00]you know,

[42:01]whatever the line is.

[42:02]Like have everybody enjoy your time,

[42:04]but like you don't want to be remembered

[42:06]for anything.

[42:06]It's like a description of this podcast.

[42:07]I was going to say,

[42:08]but not memorable.

[42:09]Kind of pleasant.

[42:10]Kind of pleasant,

[42:12]but not memorable.

[42:12]I think I,

[42:14]I mean,

[42:14]I think I,

[42:15]I can handle myself

[42:16]in most ways.

[42:17]I can handle myself

[42:17]in most social situations,

[42:18]but I think the worst one

[42:20]is what you're describing.

[42:21]Yeah.

[42:21]Totally.

[42:22]If there's other,

[42:23]if there's other,

[42:25]are there other boyfriends

[42:26]or husbands coming along

[42:27]with this weekend warrior of yours?

[42:29]I think,

[42:29]I think it,

[42:30]the week,

[42:30]it's the weekend warrior.

[42:31]Some of the weekend warriors,

[42:32]very close friends.

[42:34]And then some of,

[42:35]of the,

[42:36]the weekend where it's

[42:37]multiple stages of connection,

[42:40]like the Kevin Bacon game.

[42:41]It's people that the weekend warrior

[42:43]doesn't really know either.

[42:44]I try to make sure

[42:45]I talk to everybody

[42:46]because,

[42:47]just like you can be

[42:48]the drunk guy,

[42:48]you could also be the guy

[42:50]who doesn't want to be there.

[42:51]Yeah.

[42:51]And that's might be worse

[42:52]than the drunk guy.

[42:53]Yeah.

[42:53]Oh,

[42:54]that guy,

[42:55]he's just sat there quiet.

[42:56]He,

[42:56]you know,

[42:56]he clearly,

[42:57]you know,

[42:57]like,

[42:57]cause you gotta,

[42:58]for this weekend warrior,

[43:00]you gotta,

[43:00]you gotta show up a little bit,

[43:01]right?

[43:02]So that you're talked about

[43:04]in a good light.

[43:05]And so I try to make it around

[43:07]to talk to everybody

[43:08]because eventually that,

[43:09]that way you'll find

[43:10]the good one then too.

[43:11]You know,

[43:12]you're going to find the one

[43:12]who's into lightsabers

[43:15]or whatever,

[43:15]you know,

[43:16]likes wearing,

[43:17]cowboy hats

[43:17]and stuff like that too,

[43:18]right?

[43:19]I mean,

[43:19]so you're going to find that guy

[43:20]so that when you are

[43:21]a little liquored up later,

[43:22]at least you've got that guy

[43:23]to talk to about whatever

[43:24]you guys have in common.

[43:25]So that's my take for you.

[43:27]Listen,

[43:28]Russell,

[43:28]just repeat after me.

[43:29]Here's all you need to say

[43:30]at this gathering.

[43:31]Let's hear it.

[43:32]I have a podcast.

[43:34]Just say that

[43:35]you're going to have a podcast.

[43:36]They're going to ask you about it.

[43:37]You can play,

[43:38]maybe play a five minute

[43:39]or 10 minute clip

[43:40]off your phone

[43:41]and be like,

[43:41]wait,

[43:41]wait,

[43:42]wait,

[43:42]just listen,

[43:43]listen,

[43:43]listen.

[43:44]They love that stuff.

[43:45]Listen to this guy.

[43:47]I got to explain to you

[43:49]that an episode before

[43:50]we had been talking about

[43:52]truckers

[43:53]and they were having sex.

[43:54]Well,

[43:54]it's funny if you hear it.

[43:55]So let me go back.

[43:56]I got to play you that first.

[43:57]Okay.

[43:57]And then I'd have to show them

[43:59]what we're talking about

[44:00]with the shocker,

[44:00]right?

[44:01]We'd have to,

[44:01]there'd have to be an explanation.

[44:02]You would have to

[44:03]because not everyone in the world

[44:05]knows what that is,

[44:06]which again is so disturbing.

[44:07]It makes no sense.

[44:08]Yeah.

[44:09]Hey,

[44:09]what is it?

[44:10]Let's question for the group.

[44:11]What is your guy's definition

[44:12]of a round?

[44:13]Ready?

[44:14]Let's go.

[44:14]Let's hear what the definition

[44:15]of a round is.

[44:16]Right.

[44:17]Maybe we could sing one

[44:18]at the table, right?

[44:19]Right.

[44:19]Oh my God.

[44:20]Do I just lay it down

[44:21]right off the bat, Matt?

[44:22]Right off,

[44:23]right off the,

[44:23]we people sit down

[44:25]and people are trying

[44:25]to make small talk

[44:26]and I establish immediately

[44:28]I'm the round guy.

[44:29]Yeah.

[44:29]You're the round guy.

[44:30]Yep.

[44:30]If anybody wants to bust out

[44:32]into a little song,

[44:33]you let me know.

[44:34]I'm with you.

[44:35]I think Matt's suggestion is good.

[44:37]You find one,

[44:37]one,

[44:38]one guy.

[44:39]I mean,

[44:39]we were in a heteronormative

[44:40]kind of situation here.

[44:42]You find one guy

[44:43]to be friends with.

[44:43]Make sure that it's the guy

[44:45]who is not the guy

[44:46]who all,

[44:47]the other significant others hate.

[44:50]So you want to be,

[44:51]you make good friends

[44:52]with the guy

[44:53]who's like in a good relationship

[44:54]and is a role model.

[44:55]Like you,

[44:56]you hit it up,

[44:56]hit it off with that guy

[44:58]and you're in good shape.

[44:58]Yeah.

[44:59]Or you're the savior.

[45:00]You're the one

[45:01]who brought the guy

[45:02]that everybody hates

[45:03]and you've tamed him.

[45:04]Oh, right.

[45:05]You know,

[45:05]and now everybody

[45:06]kind of can stand him

[45:07]a little bit

[45:07]because well,

[45:08]Russell,

[45:08]his handle,

[45:09]you know,

[45:09]so I don't know.

[45:10]You got to figure out

[45:11]how to play it.

[45:11]It's all a big game.

[45:12]And you just got to play it.

[45:14]Here's what I would do.

[45:15]Russell power move.

[45:15]Find that guy.

[45:17]Take him to the bathroom.

[45:17]Tell him to touch your crotch

[45:19]when he does run out.

[45:22]And then later

[45:22]you could bring that up

[45:23]anytime.

[45:24]Hey,

[45:26]that guy over there

[45:26]touched my crotch.

[45:27]I'd be like,

[45:27]what?

[45:27]So you can save that for years.

[45:31]Would you like to take

[45:32]a polygraph, sir?

[45:33]Yeah.

[45:34]No,

[45:34]I can't take one.

[45:35]Why can't you?

[45:36]Because I touched it.

[45:37]Hey,

[45:38]I have one other

[45:39]rolling going thing.

[45:39]I know we shouldn't do this,

[45:40]but I have to bring it up.

[45:42]This is kind of serious.

[45:44]It could be a legal issue.

[45:45]Okay.

[45:46]Did you guys see

[45:47]that Brett Favre

[45:47]is suing multiple people

[45:48]for making jokes

[45:49]about how he stole

[45:50]all that money

[45:50]from poor people?

[45:51]Yeah,

[45:52]he is.

[45:54]He's doubling down.

[45:55]Listen,

[45:59]I'm going to say it again.

[46:00]It's not stealing.

[46:04]It's an investment.

[46:06]Okay.

[46:07]We are going to get

[46:09]to see some of these kids.

[46:10]Maybe they get

[46:11]to watch volleyball.

[46:12]Okay.

[46:13]Great volleyball court.

[46:14]Give a man a fish,

[46:15]feed him for a day.

[46:17]Let a man come in

[46:18]and watch my kids

[46:19]play volleyball.

[46:19]Hey,

[46:21]they'll have concession

[46:21]popcorn for life.

[46:22]Okay.

[46:23]And that's something

[46:24]to think about.

[46:24]That's the joke.

[46:25]You got to move on

[46:26]to the album.

[46:26]Hey,

[46:27]only say possibly worse

[46:29]than Mississippi.

[46:30]Let's talk about this album.

[46:31]Hey,

[46:32]listen,

[46:32]it's like,

[46:33]hey,

[46:33]I got,

[46:35]I built this great

[46:35]volleyball center.

[46:36]Let me show you

[46:37]some pictures on my phone.

[46:38]Oh,

[46:38]no,

[46:38]wait,

[46:39]not that one.

[46:40]Remember that?

[46:43]Like I get it.

[46:44]I get,

[46:45]listen,

[46:45]a dick pic

[46:46]with,

[46:47]with Crocs in the background.

[46:47]Funny as hell.

[46:49]Right?

[46:49]Just so fucking funny

[46:51]to think that there's

[46:52]some pro athletes like,

[46:53]ah,

[46:54]what color Crocs

[46:56]am I going to get?

[46:56]Like,

[46:56]should I get red ones

[46:57]or what?

[46:57]Like,

[46:58]great.

[46:59]Yep.

[47:00]I think these grays are good.

[47:01]Well,

[47:02]time to take a picture

[47:03]of my cock

[47:03]and send it to somebody.

[47:04]What?

[47:07]When he works

[47:09]for the team too.

[47:10]You think Shannon Sharp

[47:11]will indemnify us

[47:12]if this goes wrong

[47:13]or not?

[47:13]Yeah.

[47:14]He's got our back

[47:15]for sure.

[47:15]Yeah.

[47:16]Has it ever,

[47:16]ever worked

[47:17]just sending your cock

[47:18]to somebody?

[47:19]Russell's nodding.

[47:20]Okay.

[47:21]So that's cool.

[47:21]Big nod from Russell.

[47:24]But like,

[47:25]wieners look funny,

[47:26]right?

[47:26]I mean,

[47:27]there's not,

[47:27]it's just,

[47:28]it's not like

[47:29]sending boob.

[47:30]It's not like sending boobs.

[47:31]It's you sending a wiener.

[47:32]If you saw a guy's erect penis

[47:34]and then an alien egg came out

[47:36]and it turned out

[47:36]to be an ovipositor

[47:37]from the Martian planet,

[47:39]you'd be like,

[47:39]yeah,

[47:39]that actually makes sense.

[47:40]That's what it looks like.

[47:42]We're laying out in 132

[47:43]and we've already gone back

[47:44]to the ovipositor jokes.

[47:46]No.

[47:47]Like alien cock.

[47:49]Reset the counter

[47:50]of like days

[47:51]since an ovipositor joke

[47:53]to zero.

[47:54]Now we can't.

[47:56]We had a whole

[47:59]ovipositor episode.

[48:01]We're all the way up the rails.

[48:03]We have 40 songs to go.

[48:06]You're the correct age

[48:06]where you're a big

[48:07]Hank Williams fan.

[48:08]An ovipositor is

[48:10]like an alien penis,

[48:12]but it has eggs as well.

[48:13]He's done this already.

[48:13]So something to think about.

[48:14]Russell hasn't stopped laughing

[48:16]in like three years.

[48:16]38 seconds.

[48:17]Aaron,

[48:19]how do you think

[48:19]the Easter Bunny

[48:20]brings all those eggs

[48:23]to your yard?

[48:23]Oh,

[48:24]in a basket?

[48:25]Uh-uh.

[48:25]It's got an alien cock

[48:27]that comes out

[48:28]and it's an ovipositor.

[48:28]I think it's called

[48:29]an ovipositor.

[48:31]Aaron,

[48:32]I think it's called

[48:33]an ovipositor.

[48:34]And this ovipositor,

[48:36]oh,

[48:36]what's the alien,

[48:36]what did alien

[48:37]Easter Bunny bring me today?

[48:39]Oh,

[48:39]it's a,

[48:40]with a quarter in it.

[48:41]Those were the shittiest eggs.

[48:42]You guys know what I'm talking about.

[48:43]Eggs with a quarter.

[48:44]Get out of here.

[48:44]It's a Cadbury ovipositor.

[48:46]Oh my God.

[48:47]Cadbury eggs.

[48:48]So good.

[48:48]Even if,

[48:49]you know what?

[48:49]I'll tell you what.

[48:50]I'm going to tell you right now.

[48:50]If I had an alien

[48:51]that may have an ovipositor

[48:52]that only put out Cadbury eggs,

[48:54]I'd put that shit in a cage

[48:56]and just feed it enough

[48:58]so it lives

[48:58]and it would live in my house

[48:59]and give me Cadbury eggs

[49:00]all year long.

[49:01]Just feed it enough.

[49:03]Just,

[49:03]just enough.

[49:04]Okay.

[49:04]And I might edit this out

[49:05]and here's how I'm picturing this.

[49:07]I mean,

[49:07]how do you get the middle

[49:08]of that Cadbury egg filled?

[49:09]Well,

[49:10]that's the thing

[49:10]is that you do have to

[49:11]jack off the alien

[49:12]so it does give you

[49:13]the Cadbury egg,

[49:14]but the harder the work,

[49:18]the sweeter the honey.

[49:19]You know what I mean?

[49:20]He won't play the songs.

[49:21]We have 40 of them

[49:22]and he won't play them.

[49:23]He'll play them eventually.

[49:24]He's got Science Olympiad

[49:26]in like three hours.

[49:27]I'm going to bring this back

[49:28]to the Hank Williams song.

[49:29]There's one on here.

[49:30]I think about an ovipositor.

[49:31]I thought I heard that earlier.

[49:32]40 songs is bound to be one.

[49:36]He's like,

[49:36]ah,

[49:36]my wife and I,

[49:37]it's not going so well.

[49:38]She doesn't like my ovipositor

[49:39]or whatever.

[49:39]This was,

[49:40]this was released

[49:41]25 years after his death.

[49:42]It's in the middle of,

[49:43]I think it's the second verse

[49:44]of the song.

[49:44]This is not an album.

[49:46]This is,

[49:47]you know,

[49:48]I mean,

[49:48]these are some of the greatest

[49:49]songs ever written.

[49:50]It's not an album.

[49:51]He never recorded an album.

[49:52]He had two LPs released

[49:54]after his death.

[49:55]That was it.

[49:55]Otherwise,

[49:55]it was all singles.

[49:56]Listen,

[49:57]this is the first anthology.

[49:59]Now,

[49:59]here's how sad this is.

[50:00]This is popular

[50:01]because it's the first

[50:02]anthology of his

[50:02]where his kids

[50:04]did not add their voices

[50:06]to his songs in duet form.

[50:07]Remember when that was big?

[50:08]Like the,

[50:09]like,

[50:10]so Hank Williams Jr.

[50:11]was like,

[50:11]hey,

[50:12]I'm going to release an album

[50:12]with my dead dad.

[50:14]Okay.

[50:14]Meanwhile,

[50:16]Nat King Cole's daughter

[50:17]is like,

[50:17]okay,

[50:18]writing this down.

[50:18]Good idea.

[50:20]Album with dad.

[50:21]Sounds great.

[50:21]You guys,

[50:23]that's the joke

[50:23]you guys don't like.

[50:24]Okay,

[50:25]fine.

[50:25]Nat King Cole deposits

[50:27]Cadbury eggs

[50:27]with his alien cock.

[50:29]Do you think that's funny?

[50:30]I prefer to call it

[50:32]an ovipositor.

[50:33]I was thinking

[50:35]it was sad

[50:35]because Natalie Cole

[50:36]has also passed.

[50:37]Like,

[50:37]she died too young too.

[50:38]You know what?

[50:40]We should do,

[50:41]that's a great idea,

[50:42]Aaron.

[50:42]We should do a bit

[50:43]with her and her dad

[50:44]and hop on.

[50:45]Post posthumous.

[50:46]Double post.

[50:47]Oh, right.

[50:48]Okay.

[50:48]They could call,

[50:49]I guess.

[50:50]Don't do it.

[50:50]Don't do it.

[50:51]Nevermind.

[50:51]Don't do it.

[50:52]Nope.

[50:53]Again,

[50:53]I can't do it.

[50:54]Sorry,

[50:54]forget I said it.

[50:54]Any impression of Nat King Cole

[50:56]I think would immediately

[50:56]get me in trouble.

[50:57]Here's the deal.

[50:58]Not a good idea.

[50:59]He's a great singer.

[51:00]He recorded,

[51:01]one of my favorites.

[51:02]Hank Williams recorded

[51:03]55 singles,

[51:04]five that were posthumous,

[51:06]that reached the top 10,

[51:07]including 12s

[51:08]that were number one.

[51:09]This might be

[51:09]the greatest songwriter

[51:10]we have covered yet.

[51:12]Unbelievable.

[51:15]He was,

[51:16]he died.

[51:17]He was an alcoholic,

[51:18]prescription drugs,

[51:19]had a bad back.

[51:20]At the age of 29,

[51:23]he died in the backseat

[51:24]of his car.

[51:25]Somebody driving him.

[51:27]On New Year's Day.

[51:27]On New Year's Day.

[51:28]Well,

[51:29]after New Year's Eve,

[51:31]I think,

[51:31]that's fine.

[51:32]Do you think it was

[51:33]in a Walgreens

[51:34]or a Duane Reade?

[51:35]Duane Reade,

[51:35]yeah.

[51:35]He was like,

[51:37]I'd want to,

[51:37]he avoided Valentine's Day.

[51:39]The worst day they had

[51:40]to die would be after,

[51:41]the day after Valentine's Day.

[51:42]Like you got that,

[51:44]flowers,

[51:44]you got that piece of paper

[51:45]that says like,

[51:46]red hot chili peppers,

[51:47]tickets on it.

[51:47]And then you're like,

[51:48]ugh.

[51:49]You didn't even get to

[51:50]eat those chocolates.

[51:50]It'd be the worst.

[51:51]These,

[51:53]this album is,

[51:55]I,

[51:55]it really is incredible

[51:57]how fun this is to listen to.

[51:59]But I will say this.

[52:00]You saw this fucking rule.

[52:00]A lot of these songs,

[52:03]and we're just going to go

[52:03]through title by title.

[52:04]Let's see,

[52:05]every time,

[52:06]could this song be dirty

[52:08]just by the title?

[52:09]Okay,

[52:09]so let's start.

[52:10]It says do me.

[52:10]When do we get to the do me part?

[52:11]Move it on over.

[52:14]Yep.

[52:14]Yes.

[52:15]Move it on over is an act.

[52:17]But,

[52:18]well,

[52:19]where I was pulling this up,

[52:20]the titles for these songs,

[52:21]this might be the best titled songs

[52:23]of any album,

[52:24]anthology,

[52:25]collection we've heard.

[52:26]Like,

[52:26]you know exactly what you're listening to

[52:28]on every song,

[52:29]right?

[52:29]There's no,

[52:29]there's no doubt.

[52:30]Yeah.

[52:31]So is,

[52:31]are these songs dirty

[52:33]just by the title?

[52:33]Move it on over.

[52:34]Absolutely.

[52:36]100% could be dirty.

[52:37]This is 1947,

[52:42]by the way.

[52:44]Hey,

[52:44]move over cold dog

[52:46]because the hot dog water's

[52:48]moving in,

[52:48]right?

[52:48]Oh no.

[52:49]Tons.

[52:50]Wow.

[52:51]Great,

[52:53]great opener.

[52:53]These are some of the greatest

[52:55]songs ever written.

[52:56]I mean,

[52:57]they're just,

[52:57]every one of them.

[52:58]There's something charming

[53:01]about like the old,

[53:02]it's not,

[53:03]it's not pristine recording too,

[53:04]right?

[53:05]Like it,

[53:05]it feels old.

[53:06]There's some charming about it,

[53:07]I think.

[53:08]And you put this on

[53:09]and it transports you

[53:10]to another place.

[53:11]Yeah.

[53:12]His,

[53:12]his writing partner,

[53:13]uh,

[53:14]Fred Rose,

[53:14]who's also like a producer

[53:15]challenged him and said,

[53:16]I bet you,

[53:16]you can't write a song

[53:18]about a mansion on a hill.

[53:19]And he's like,

[53:20]okay,

[53:20]hey,

[53:20]check this out.

[53:21]And he literally wrote

[53:22]this song on a dare.

[53:22]Like it's crazy.

[53:26]And by the way,

[53:26]this song got all the way

[53:27]up to number 12

[53:28]on the most played

[53:28]jukebox folk records chart.

[53:31]Sounds like the exact

[53:31]same thing as jambalaya,

[53:32]just different lyrics.

[53:33]Right.

[53:34]Don't you want to see

[53:35]that chart of jukebox

[53:37]folks records most played?

[53:38]I got to see that chart.

[53:40]But what did it mean

[53:41]for him to write a song?

[53:42]Cause he couldn't read music.

[53:43]So he,

[53:44]he must've dictated it

[53:44]to someone,

[53:45]right?

[53:45]He must've,

[53:46]I mean,

[53:46]we got a lot of songs

[53:47]to go through here,

[53:48]but when he wrote a song,

[53:49]did he write them

[53:50]or did he just record them?

[53:51]And that's considered

[53:53]writing it,

[53:54]you know,

[53:55]or he wrote it

[53:55]and somebody,

[53:56]he sang it

[53:57]and somebody wrote it down.

[53:58]I mean,

[53:58]cause Paul McCartney

[53:59]couldn't read music.

[53:59]Right.

[54:00]But I mean,

[54:00]he knew how to play.

[54:02]According to a lot

[54:03]of the stories,

[54:03]he would be like,

[54:04]he would be like in the car

[54:05]and he'd be something like,

[54:06]he'd be like,

[54:07]my wife is a cold hearted witch.

[54:09]Then he'd be like,

[54:10]that would make a great song.

[54:13]Hey,

[54:14]my wife's a cold hearted witch.

[54:15]I can't believe she left

[54:16]the Mia sad sandwich.

[54:18]And that's how he would

[54:19]write down the songs

[54:20]as they write it down.

[54:20]Aaron,

[54:21]you can react

[54:23]to anything I'm doing guys.

[54:24]That was a good bit.

[54:25]Kind of.

[54:26]I was just trying to figure like,

[54:27]I don't think he wrote

[54:28]a witch with a witch.

[54:28]Here's,

[54:30]here's the yodeling.

[54:31]If you guys remember,

[54:31]we did a best list of the,

[54:33]you know,

[54:33]what's amazing about this album.

[54:34]Almost every song

[54:36]has something we've done

[54:36]a best of before.

[54:38]This is the best

[54:39]yodeling songs ever.

[54:40]We did it on

[54:40]Sly and the Family Stone.

[54:42]There's,

[54:44]there's a riot going on.

[54:44]Everything's got great stuff here.

[54:47]He's talking about

[54:49]how he's no longer

[54:50]a sugar daddy.

[54:50]Here's where he says,

[54:52]she'll do me,

[54:53]she'll do you.

[54:53]This is like,

[54:54]are we talking about

[54:55]a hose in different area codes here

[54:56]or what?

[54:57]Like,

[54:57]I think you probably had

[54:58]a different connotation

[55:00]at the time.

[55:01]Like,

[55:01]I can't listen to this one now.

[55:02]What was the connotation

[55:04]at the time, Aaron?

[55:05]I don't know.

[55:05]I don't think do me

[55:07]was in the lexicon

[55:08]at the time though,

[55:08]right?

[55:08]I'm almost certain

[55:09]this was before area codes

[55:11]were a thing.

[55:12]You could,

[55:14]I don't know.

[55:14]Maybe,

[55:15]maybe county seats.

[55:16]I got hose

[55:19]in different county seats

[55:20]or what,

[55:21]what would it be Rob?

[55:22]I think,

[55:22]uh,

[55:23]territories,

[55:23]right?

[55:24]Yeah.

[55:25]I mean,

[55:26]this is like pre Hawaii,

[55:27]right?

[55:28]Like Hawaii is its own country

[55:29]during this thing.

[55:30]Like it's,

[55:30]it's crazy.

[55:32]Uh,

[55:32]Aaron,

[55:34]would you want to be

[55:34]a sugar daddy?

[55:35]No.

[55:36]Aaron,

[55:39]would you want to be

[55:40]a sugar daddy?

[55:40]No.

[55:41]I don't need someone to live.

[55:43]My wife is so bad.

[55:43]I mean,

[55:44]come on,

[55:44]let me come over.

[55:45]I don't know.

[55:48]I think it would be,

[55:48]there's a great Tik TOK

[55:50]where all it is,

[55:51]is sugar daddies on boats,

[55:52]like driving their boats.

[55:53]It's the old ass men

[55:54]with these hot women.

[55:55]And it's just like a compilation

[55:56]of them.

[55:57]I swear to God,

[55:58]I watched one the other day

[55:59]for 10 minutes.

[55:59]I got such a kick out of it.

[56:00]These old guys and speedos

[56:02]who are just so rich

[56:03]that they have a boat.

[56:04]I was like,

[56:04]that's the life right there.

[56:06]Right?

[56:06]Is that the,

[56:08]is that the true sign

[56:09]you've become that rich

[56:10]as the boat

[56:11]or what's,

[56:11]what's the first thing

[56:12]you purchased the speedo

[56:13]as an old guy?

[56:13]If you could wear the speedo

[56:15]as the old guy,

[56:16]is that the moment?

[56:16]I think that's the moment,

[56:17]right?

[56:18]Is when you're,

[56:19]when it,

[56:19]when it looks as my mom said,

[56:20]like two potatoes down there

[56:22]and you still are pulling

[56:24]like attractive women.

[56:25]That's when you know

[56:26]you've made it.

[56:27]Why is your mom?

[56:27]I'm not going to,

[56:29]no,

[56:29]I'm not going to ask

[56:30]that question anymore.

[56:31]That's too big of a rabbit hole.

[56:32]Nope.

[56:32]And then she clarifies,

[56:34]she goes,

[56:34]I mean the red,

[56:35]red potatoes

[56:36]or red potatoes.

[56:37]Okay.

[56:37]Not the idle ones.

[56:38]He said a lot of his

[56:43]songs are basically

[56:44]like a frozen moment

[56:45]or time

[56:46]or a grudge

[56:47]that he held.

[56:48]And I was like,

[56:48]yeah,

[56:48]he does have a lot

[56:49]of grudges,

[56:49]right?

[56:51]Yeah.

[56:51]To think he only died

[56:52]at 29,

[56:53]like at 29

[56:54]or you know,

[56:56]25,

[56:56]26,

[56:57]he was writing

[56:57]these songs

[56:58]with this kind of

[56:59]ire to them.

[57:01]I think,

[57:02]I think people

[57:03]were still throwing rocks

[57:04]at John for me

[57:05]dying while he was

[57:06]taking the shit

[57:06]in the woods

[57:07]at 29,

[57:08]right?

[57:08]I think that's like

[57:10]34.

[57:11]It's like 23.

[57:13]Go the other way.

[57:14]Have you guys,

[57:16]Pete from Red Wing

[57:17]got married early.

[57:18]Yes,

[57:19]he did.

[57:19]Do you guys have a grudge

[57:20]against anybody?

[57:21]Like,

[57:21]are you possibly,

[57:22]can you hold grudges?

[57:23]Not like real ones,

[57:26]but like,

[57:27]no,

[57:28]I can't.

[57:29]I had this come up.

[57:30]I had a person

[57:31]in our,

[57:31]in my work industry

[57:32]who had kind of

[57:34]bad mouth me

[57:35]to my coworkers,

[57:37]people I work with.

[57:38]Oh,

[57:38]oh,

[57:39]and he is Cox.

[57:41]He kind of said

[57:42]that I,

[57:43]I dropped the,

[57:43]I dropped the ball

[57:43]on something.

[57:44]I know damn well I didn't.

[57:46]I know he just went

[57:47]a different direction

[57:47]and he was blaming stuff.

[57:48]Okay,

[57:49]Russell,

[57:49]we're not mad at you.

[57:50]Just relax.

[57:51]You don't need to explain it to us.

[57:52]He kind of threw me

[57:53]under the bus

[57:53]to numerous people

[57:54]that I work with

[57:55]and I was furious about it.

[57:57]I was like,

[57:57]fuck that guy.

[57:58]If I ever see him,

[57:59]I might just slap him

[58:00]in the face.

[58:01]Like I was pissed

[58:02]because like you,

[58:03]you can't throw

[58:04]someone's reputation

[58:05]out like that.

[58:06]It's bullshit.

[58:07]And I was,

[58:08]Brett Favre says

[58:08]I was pissed.

[58:09]And so then I ended up

[58:11]seeing this guy

[58:11]at a conference

[58:12]and he started talking.

[58:13]He started talking to me

[58:13]and the whole time

[58:14]I just wanted to be like,

[58:15]tell him to fuck off

[58:17]and I couldn't do it

[58:18]and I can't hold a grudge.

[58:19]It's just like,

[58:20]what do I get out

[58:21]of being an asshole about it?

[58:22]There's nothing to like,

[58:23]no,

[58:24]I don't hold grudges.

[58:25]I let it go.

[58:25]I'm the same thing now

[58:26]where I had this conflict

[58:27]with this person at work.

[58:28]As I mentioned earlier,

[58:29]I needed mediation.

[58:30]That's how bad it was.

[58:31]Mediation.

[58:32]Like I asked somebody

[58:33]to come mediate for us

[58:34]and then from the rest of the year,

[58:36]I have been trying

[58:37]to be so nice to him.

[58:38]I'm reversing it.

[58:39]I like have a grudge so bad

[58:41]that I mean extra nice to him.

[58:42]It's sick.

[58:42]Reverse grudge.

[58:43]That's another Valentine's Day.

[58:46]Yeah.

[58:47]I have found that

[58:48]I can be real pissed, right?

[58:51]About the same thing, Russell.

[58:52]Something like that.

[58:53]But always taking the high road

[58:55]always leads to a better result

[58:57]in the end.

[58:57]Always.

[58:58]Just take the high road.

[58:59]I've been told

[59:01]that I hold grudges.

[59:02]I have to,

[59:03]I just have to say that out loud

[59:04]because one of our listeners

[59:05]will call me out

[59:06]if I don't say that.

[59:07]Maybe you should celebrate Festivus.

[59:10]Maybe you should celebrate Festivus

[59:11]then,

[59:12]Rosie.

[59:12]That might be the answer.

[59:13]Might be the answer.

[59:14]Error your grudges.

[59:14]Hey, can I make something clear though?

[59:16]I still judge the shit

[59:18]out of those people I don't like.

[59:19]But I don't,

[59:20]I don't make it an issue.

[59:22]I don't let it,

[59:23]I don't let it become a thing.

[59:24]But in my mind.

[59:24]When they come around,

[59:25]you're quiet.

[59:26]I know.

[59:26]When they go away,

[59:28]I'd be talking again.

[59:29]Yeah.

[59:30]I like,

[59:30]I like that Aaron went

[59:32]to that lingerie shop

[59:33]and got an apparatus

[59:33]so he can do the reverse grudge.

[59:35]Reverse grudge?

[59:36]Reverse grudge.

[59:37]Hold it both ways, right?

[59:39]Definitely.

[59:42]Mind your own business.

[59:43]Mind your own business.

[59:45]This is like when we listen

[59:48]to James Brown,

[59:49]there's too many songs

[59:50]that sound like this.

[59:51]This is the same song

[59:53]as Move It On Over.

[59:53]Exactly.

[59:54]Just their lyrics, right?

[59:55]Like they could have chosen

[59:56]any number of greatest

[59:58]hits compilations.

[59:58]It would have been

[59:59]10, 12, 25, 20 songs.

[60:03]They chose 40 songs.

[60:04]It's stupid.

[60:05]The other one we heard

[60:06]a lot of the same song was

[60:07]Run Run Rudolph

[60:08]by Chuck Berry.

[60:09]Remember everything sounded

[60:10]like Run Run Rudolph

[60:11]at some point.

[60:12]In the mediocre 28.

[60:14]What percentage

[60:14]of his catalog

[60:15]is this album?

[60:16]40 songs.

[60:17]It's a huge percentage, right?

[60:19]More than half, right?

[60:20]Yeah.

[60:21]No, it's 40 or 50 times.

[60:22]No, no, no, no, no, no.

[60:24]I read that he recorded

[60:26]225 songs

[60:28]and he wrote 128.

[60:29]Jesus.

[60:29]Wow.

[60:30]So yeah, this is

[60:31]a larger percentage

[60:33]of his recorded output

[60:34]than most people we've heard.

[60:35]Jeez.

[60:36]It just is unnecessary.

[60:37]Like, I mean,

[60:38]we're getting into

[60:39]the rating system,

[60:41]but like these are

[60:42]great songs.

[60:42]He's a great songwriter.

[60:43]He didn't make an album.

[60:45]There's no reason

[60:46]to put an album

[60:47]on this list.

[60:48]And if you're going to

[60:49]put one that has

[60:49]12 songs on it

[60:50]and you know,

[60:51]it's important

[60:52]that he's represented.

[60:53]I get it.

[60:53]But there's one of them

[60:55]called there's one called

[60:57]Honky Tonk

[60:57]and Hank Williams

[60:58]and it's got like

[60:59]12 greatest hits.

[61:00]Yeah.

[61:01]It seems like that

[61:02]should have been the one

[61:02]they just do that, right?

[61:03]You're going to change.

[61:05]Hank Williams

[61:07]found he had

[61:08]stopped talking.

[61:08]We're only in this song

[61:09]six guys.

[61:10]Hank Williams found

[61:11]he had more

[61:12]success with up-tempo

[61:13]Honky Tonk songs.

[61:14]And this is one of them.

[61:16]What?

[61:17]No, his best songs

[61:18]are Lost Highway,

[61:19]Ramblin' Man,

[61:20]So Lonesome I Could Die.

[61:23]Those are the best songs.

[61:24]Well, let's listen

[61:25]to the Lost Highway.

[61:26]Let's listen to it.

[61:27]This one barely

[61:29]made the charts.

[61:30]Can you believe it?

[61:31]It didn't even.

[61:31]This launched

[61:34]the whole genre.

[61:34]All of a sudden

[61:35]it was built on this song.

[61:37]This is written

[61:38]by a guy named

[61:38]Leon Payne

[61:39]who wrote a few

[61:40]of these songs actually.

[61:41]He was a blind,

[61:42]a country singer

[61:42]at the time.

[61:43]Again, remember

[61:45]a song about a highway?

[61:46]We did a list

[61:47]about the greatest songs

[61:48]about highways

[61:48]on Bob Dylan,

[61:49]Highway 61

[61:50]way back in the day.

[61:51]There's one thing

[61:54]I don't know if you guys

[61:55]can find it on here,

[61:56]but there's a part

[61:56]where he's playing

[61:57]a mandolin

[61:58]or someone in the band

[61:59]is playing the mandolin.

[62:00]It made me start thinking

[62:02]we've never talked

[62:03]about a mandolin before.

[62:05]We've talked about

[62:05]a dobro.

[62:06]We've talked about

[62:07]a ukulele,

[62:09]but we've never

[62:10]talked about a mandolin.

[62:11]I thought we could do it

[62:11]quickly.

[62:12]We've talked about a mandolin.

[62:12]Oh my goodness.

[62:13]I'll make it fast.

[62:14]It came with a glove.

[62:16]I was going to say

[62:17]mandolin in my kitchen

[62:18]is so sharp

[62:18]it scares the shit out of me.

[62:20]I use it once

[62:21]every other year, baby.

[62:22]Yeah, it's the table saw

[62:24]of kitchen appliances.

[62:25]It's very scary.

[62:25]We had a mandolin

[62:27]on Stay, Stay, Stay

[62:28]on Taylor Swift,

[62:29]Lucinda Williams,

[62:30]Led Zeppelin

[62:31]head mandolins,

[62:32]Rag Mama Rag,

[62:33]Bob Marley.

[62:35]We've heard them before,

[62:36]but we need to do a list.

[62:38]It's the first song

[62:39]we're going to do

[62:39]with the best

[62:40]mandolin songs ever.

[62:41]Do you guys know

[62:42]the difference between

[62:42]a mandolin and ukulele?

[62:43]No.

[62:44]Yeah, of course.

[62:45]Number of strings.

[62:45]What is it, Rob?

[62:46]Mandolin is like

[62:47]the way that it's

[62:49]way more strings, right?

[62:50]And it's a way higher sound.

[62:52]It's like at least

[62:53]four double strings.

[62:54]And I think they're

[62:55]steel strings

[62:56]instead of

[62:56]instead of

[62:57]nylon.

[62:58]There you go.

[62:59]So it has a different sound,

[63:01]but the first song

[63:02]on the list

[63:02]is from 1971.

[63:03]We've talked about

[63:04]this artist a few times

[63:05]because he's had some

[63:06]semen issues,

[63:08]I believe,

[63:08]in the past,

[63:09]but it's Maggie Mae

[63:10]by Rod Stewart.

[63:10]Oh, yeah.

[63:12]Yes.

[63:12]This is a classic

[63:16]mandolin.

[63:16]Oh, you can hear the steel.

[63:16]Yeah, it sounds like

[63:18]it's like a harpsichord.

[63:19]There's a guy.

[63:21]This is supposed to be

[63:21]the first mandolin rock song

[63:23]that really was a big hit.

[63:25]Well, you know me,

[63:28]I listen to lots of bluegrass,

[63:29]so I am no stranger

[63:30]to a mandolin.

[63:31]Rob, I was reading

[63:33]that this song

[63:34]was inspired by

[63:35]the woman who deflowered him,

[63:36]and he said that

[63:37]it only took a few seconds.

[63:38]Curious,

[63:39]how many seconds

[63:40]is the optimal amount of time?

[63:41]I mean,

[63:44]going for seconds.

[63:45]I'm so thirsty

[63:45]after the first one.

[63:46]You know what I mean?

[63:47]Like,

[63:47]I mean,

[63:51]what's the optimal amount

[63:52]of time to have sex?

[63:53]I don't know.

[63:53]Infinity?

[63:54]Like, it rules.

[63:55]It's the best.

[63:57]All right.

[63:59]The other best song

[64:00]in this list

[64:00]is from 1972.

[64:02]Also, I've never had

[64:03]a good session

[64:04]of making love,

[64:04]so I would not know.

[64:05]The optimal time,

[64:06]it seems to be,

[64:06]is a little bit less

[64:07]than what I'm currently doing.

[64:08]A little bit less?

[64:10]Yeah, actually quite a bit less.

[64:11]Quite a bit less.

[64:14]Yeah, quite a bit less.

[64:15]I think zero

[64:17]is the optimal time, actually,

[64:18]for a lot of people

[64:18]in this place.

[64:19]Got you.

[64:20]The next song on the list

[64:22]is from 1972.

[64:23]This is the Godfather theme.

[64:24]Oh!

[64:25]I never would have...

[64:30]Right.

[64:31]I never would have thought.

[64:32]I still watch

[64:36]one and two,

[64:37]the Godfather one and two

[64:38]more than I should.

[64:40]Anytime.

[64:40]It's just great.

[64:41]It's great.

[64:42]Yeah.

[64:42]Yeah.

[64:42]I read this actually

[64:45]got nominated

[64:46]for the Academy Award

[64:47]for Best Original Score

[64:48]and then they disqualified

[64:50]this guy,

[64:51]this Italian composer

[64:52]because he used

[64:53]some sort of

[64:54]different version of it.

[64:55]They disqualified him

[64:56]from the Oscars

[64:57]and then he came back

[64:58]a few years later

[65:00]with Godfather 2

[65:01]and then they awarded him

[65:02]the Oscar.

[65:02]That's pretty badass, right?

[65:04]Oh, wow.

[65:04]Persistence matters.

[65:06]You bet.

[65:07]Good thing he didn't

[65:08]hold a grudge.

[65:09]Yeah.

[65:10]He came back and won it.

[65:11]Let it go, right, Matt?

[65:12]Let it go.

[65:13]Let it go.

[65:14]Let it go.

[65:15]The next song on the list,

[65:17]I don't know if you guys

[65:17]will know this one.

[65:18]This is from 2000.

[65:19]The album is

[65:20]Transcendental Blues,

[65:21]I believe it is.

[65:22]This is Steve Earle

[65:23]Galway Girl.

[65:24]I fucking love this song.

[65:27]Russell, did you know?

[65:28]Did I give you that one?

[65:28]You gave me that one.

[65:29]Steve Earle Galway Girl?

[65:30]Yeah.

[65:31]There you go.

[65:31]This is a great song.

[65:33]On the old long walk

[65:34]of the E-I-E-I-E

[65:37]I met a girl

[65:39]and I stopped to talk

[65:40]and found something

[65:41]he, uh, he

[65:42]and I asked her a friend

[65:44]Oh, God, man.

[65:45]What's a fella do?

[65:46]I've never heard this song.

[65:48]I never heard it.

[65:49]Her hair was black

[65:50]and her eyes were blue

[65:52]I had this on CD

[65:53]and I'll tell you why.

[65:54]Because...

[65:56]Who sings this song?

[65:57]Steve Earle.

[65:57]Steve Earle, the same guy

[65:58]who did Copperhead Road.

[65:59]Transcendental Blues,

[66:00]this album rules.

[66:01]He's in, uh...

[66:02]What is he in?

[66:03]Isn't he in, um...

[66:04]The Wire.

[66:04]He's in The Wire.

[66:05]The Wire.

[66:06]My name is Earl.

[66:06]And he was also...

[66:07]What producer?

[66:08]Who did he produce

[66:09]on an album we listened to

[66:10]a few months back?

[66:11]Um...

[66:12]Lucinda, maybe.

[66:13]Lucinda Williams.

[66:14]Yeah.

[66:14]Wow.

[66:15]And I know this album

[66:17]because one day

[66:18]I was sitting

[66:19]in my dorm room

[66:20]and Russell

[66:22]and our friend Darren

[66:23]from...

[66:24]Where's Darren from now?

[66:25]All right.

[66:25]The Pleasure Town.

[66:27]He's from Pleasure Town.

[66:28]The Pleasure Principal.

[66:29]He's the Principal of Pleasure.

[66:31]The Pleasure Principal

[66:32]came into my dorm room

[66:33]and they said,

[66:34]Hey, we brought this CD

[66:35]back for you

[66:36]from the radio station

[66:37]because it said

[66:38]Blues on it.

[66:39]And I played that...

[66:40]I wore that thing

[66:41]out.

[66:41]I loved that CD

[66:43]until the day

[66:44]I got rid of my CDs

[66:45]and that is one of the...

[66:46]That was it?

[66:47]Yes.

[66:47]That's one of the

[66:48]number one CDs

[66:49]I wish I hadn't gotten rid of.

[66:50]So thank you for including

[66:51]that on your list, Russell.

[66:52]It's crazy sometimes

[66:53]when you look back

[66:54]at your memories

[66:54]and just like,

[66:55]Oh yeah,

[66:55]if you would've told me

[66:56]at the time like,

[66:56]Oh, this is one of my main memories

[66:58]I'm going to carry from college.

[66:59]You'd be like,

[66:59]Well, no,

[66:59]they're just giving me a CD.

[67:00]But it's like,

[67:01]Yep, this is it.

[67:02]There's a CD.

[67:02]That's it.

[67:02]And now we're on a podcast together.

[67:04]You know where I love that guy from

[67:05]is I saw him on that show

[67:06]he had on NBC

[67:07]called My Name is Steve Earle.

[67:09]Yes.

[67:09]It was kind of basic

[67:12]but I liked it.

[67:13]It was good.

[67:13]That was a good show.

[67:15]But yes,

[67:16]all of our listeners

[67:17]go check out

[67:17]Transcendental Blues.

[67:18]That is a great album.

[67:19]I'm going to play it tomorrow

[67:20]all day long.

[67:20]Fantastic song.

[67:22]I love it.

[67:22]The next song on the list...

[67:23]Rolling Bone, right?

[67:24]Transcendental Blues.

[67:25]It must have been 501.

[67:26]Yep, it's Rolling Bone for sure.

[67:28]So Steve Earle,

[67:29]I think as an Irish singer,

[67:31]that's kind of an Irish song.

[67:32]And you hear actually a lot of...

[67:35]You hear a lot of...

[67:35]You hear a lot of mandolins

[67:36]in kind of folk music, right?

[67:38]So that's Irish.

[67:40]But there's also a...

[67:41]I guess you'd call them

[67:42]a Boston band.

[67:43]Another Irish band,

[67:44]if you will.

[67:45]It's the Dropkick Murphys

[67:46]and this is Rose Tattoo.

[67:47]Ooh.

[67:48]Oh.

[67:51]You hear that mandolin back there?

[67:53]Yeah, it's in there.

[67:54]People love Dropkick Murphys.

[67:59]Yeah.

[68:00]Listen to this.

[68:02]Everyone's rocking

[68:03]on the podcast right now.

[68:04]Look at Rob.

[68:05]Look at Rob.

[68:05]I do love it.

[68:07]I got to say.

[68:07]Aaron, would you ever do

[68:10]a name tattoo on yourself?

[68:12]Like, would you ever do your son

[68:13]or your wife's name or not?

[68:14]Yeah, for sure.

[68:15]Oh, totally.

[68:15]Yeah, yeah.

[68:16]Absolutely.

[68:17]What about you, Matt or Rob?

[68:19]Would you ever do a name tattoo

[68:20]on a rose or no?

[68:21]I would definitely get...

[68:23]I think it would be funny.

[68:25]Fuck, I had a joke

[68:29]and I can't remember what it is.

[68:30]A tattoo with a name?

[68:32]It was going to be

[68:33]Dropkick Murphy Brown

[68:35]was the...

[68:35]punchline,

[68:36]but I can't remember

[68:36]what it was, no.

[68:37]It doesn't matter.

[68:39]Dropkick Murphy Brown is funny.

[68:40]Like Mitch Berger

[68:41]made a cameo on her show

[68:43]and it was called

[68:44]Dropkick Murphy Brown.

[68:45]Yes, exactly.

[68:47]Hey, Melvin.

[68:48]I think we should all get tattoos

[68:49]of each other's names

[68:50]on our songs.

[68:52]Rob, you should go first.

[68:53]You show us what you did.

[68:55]Let's do it.

[68:56]I'll do it.

[68:56]Don't tell me

[68:57]it was a good time.

[68:57]I'll do it.

[68:58]Matt, you're going right here

[68:59]on my inner thigh.

[69:00]The inner thigh is where

[69:01]your inner thigh is.

[69:01]That's going to hurt super bad.

[69:02]Left or the right?

[69:03]Left or the right?

[69:04]This...

[69:05]Again, I can't believe

[69:06]my wife...

[69:07]It can't be my dropkick leg.

[69:07]It's got to be my left leg.

[69:08]It can't be my dropkick leg.

[69:10]I can't believe

[69:11]my wife changed her name

[69:12]to Ugo Jr.

[69:13]And now I got to get

[69:14]a tattoo of it.

[69:15]Ugo is my mom's name.

[69:18]Well, got 34 songs

[69:21]left to go.

[69:22]Oh, no.

[69:23]There's more on the list.

[69:24]This is 2007.

[69:25]I love this song.

[69:27]It's super corny,

[69:28]but the hell if you won't

[69:29]smile listening to it.

[69:30]This is Paul McCartney

[69:31]Dance Tonight.

[69:32]Hello.

[69:32]I've never heard this.

[69:35]Oh, I'm in.

[69:37]I'm in.

[69:37]Listen to this song for a minute.

[69:40]This is badass.

[69:41]If this doesn't make you smile,

[69:44]you need to look in the mirror.

[69:45]You got a hole in your soul.

[69:48]Yes.

[69:51]Oh, you know

[69:54]John Lennon's just

[69:55]spinning in his grave.

[69:56]He's spinning like a windmill.

[69:58]It's not that old,

[70:01]I don't think.

[70:01]He bought a mandolin

[70:03]from a guitar shop in London.

[70:05]And whenever he would play it,

[70:06]his daughter would start dancing.

[70:07]He was like,

[70:07]perfect way to write a song, right?

[70:09]Oh, that was good, Russell.

[70:11]But to finish up the list here,

[70:13]Rob, your guy, Paul Simon,

[70:14]the biggest nerd in the world.

[70:16]He said they're

[70:17]the sixth greatest songwriters ever.

[70:19]George Gershwin,

[70:20]who I don't know what he did.

[70:21]Some guy named Irving Berling.

[70:23]Irving Berling wrote

[70:25]God Bless America.

[70:26]Irving Berling.

[70:28]Richard Rogers.

[70:31]Yeah.

[70:31]Lorenz Hart.

[70:35]Paul McCartney and Hank Williams.

[70:37]So according to Paul Simon,

[70:38]two of the greatest

[70:39]sixth songwriters of all time

[70:41]are Paul McCartney

[70:42]and Hank Williams.

[70:42]All right.

[70:43]I'm down with that.

[70:44]I mean, there's a few others.

[70:46]Frederick fucking Chopin.

[70:48]That's why he's a nerd.

[70:51]He doesn't know any better.

[70:52]That's a great list.

[70:53]I love the mandolin, Russell.

[70:56]You're right.

[70:56]The mandolin makes everything sound fun.

[70:57]All right.

[70:58]Only 38 songs left.

[70:59]You're the type of person

[71:00]who holds a grudge

[71:01]if you don't enjoy that, right?

[71:02]My bucket's got a hole in it

[71:04]to which he says,

[71:05]I can't fill it with,

[71:07]I can't buy no beer now.

[71:08]Oh, sad.

[71:10]So is he buying,

[71:10]now listen to this,

[71:12]is he buying beer by the bucket?

[71:14]This is a great song.

[71:16]I think he probably was

[71:17]buying beer by the bucket.

[71:18]Knowing that we know about it now.

[71:19]I added two songs.

[71:21]I like two songs on Spotify.

[71:22]This was one of the two

[71:24]that I added to my playlist.

[71:25]It's so good.

[71:26]Yeah.

[71:26]I'm so lonesome I could cry.

[71:28]This is a great song.

[71:31]Katie Lang said,

[71:32]this is the most classic

[71:33]American song ever written.

[71:34]Truly beautiful.

[71:35]Very beautiful.

[71:35]And Bob Dylan said,

[71:37]even at a young age,

[71:38]I identified with him.

[71:39]I didn't have any experience

[71:40]with anything Hank did

[71:41]to know what he was singing about.

[71:42]I never heard a Robin weep,

[71:44]but I could imagine it

[71:46]and it made me sad.

[71:47]And I gotta say, guys,

[71:48]listening to this album,

[71:49]sitting at work,

[71:51]it made me want to eat

[71:53]a ton of pills.

[71:54]It made me just want

[71:55]to take some pills

[71:56]and just hammer those babies

[71:57]and be like, see ya.

[71:58]He does a pretty good job

[71:59]of making things

[72:01]that are sad and depressing

[72:02]sound upbeat, doesn't he?

[72:03]Yeah.

[72:04]These are all in major keys, right?

[72:06]What?

[72:07]Yes.

[72:09]Major.

[72:09]Yeah, there's one song

[72:10]in minor key

[72:11]that's going to come up.

[72:11]Yeah, the rest of them

[72:12]in major key.

[72:12]Interesting.

[72:13]Here's the deal.

[72:14]Songs that were dirty so far.

[72:16]We forgot about my bit.

[72:17]Move it over.

[72:18]Yes, A Mansion on the Hill.

[72:19]No, Lovesick Blues.

[72:20]No.

[72:21]All right, this bit's no good.

[72:22]Moving on.

[72:22]I just don't like

[72:24]this kind of living.

[72:26]I'm so lonely I could cry.

[72:27]Jesus.

[72:27]Yes.

[72:28]I just don't like

[72:33]this kind of living.

[72:34]I mean, Hank,

[72:35]like,

[72:36]you want to tell Hank,

[72:37]like, Hank,

[72:38]it's going to get better,

[72:39]but it's not for him.

[72:41]He's going to die

[72:42]with a bad back

[72:42]in the backseat of his car

[72:43]at 29.

[72:44]A bummer.

[72:45]Oof.

[72:46]That really kind of sets it off.

[72:48]Tell you what, though,

[72:49]you know who that makes

[72:50]sound good?

[72:50]Me, baby.

[72:51]I'm not dead.

[72:52]I'm past 29.

[72:53]Eat shite, Hanks Williams.

[72:55]I outlived you.

[72:55]All right.

[72:57]They don't even honor him.

[72:59]I think he said shite.

[72:59]I'm trying to be clean.

[73:00]They don't even honor him

[73:01]at the 27 Club

[73:02]in Fort Lauderdale.

[73:03]He's too old.

[73:04]That's depressing.

[73:05]You're too old

[73:06]to even make that.

[73:07]Sorry, Aaron.

[73:08]Russell brings up something

[73:09]more depressing

[73:09]than the 27 Club.

[73:11]A reminder that

[73:12]that is a bar he went to

[73:13]where they had multiple celebrities

[73:14]who died at age 27

[73:16]painted on the walls.

[73:17]That's true.

[73:17]It doesn't sound as good

[73:19]now that you repeat it.

[73:20]Long gone,

[73:21]loathsome blues.

[73:22]Oh, we got through

[73:23]a quarter of the song

[73:24]so far, guys.

[73:24]Rob,

[73:27]we got to get

[73:27]like a solid 10 here.

[73:29]We got to get

[73:29]to halfway real quick.

[73:31]Listen,

[73:32]we got to talk

[73:33]about this song.

[73:34]My Son Calls Another Man Daddy.

[73:36]It's great.

[73:37]Perfect country western song.

[73:40]I mean,

[73:41]just his titles.

[73:43]It's not

[73:46]Pa Pa.

[73:47]Daddy.

[73:48]So we're up to 1950

[73:49]at this point.

[73:50]This song is,

[73:51]you just are like,

[73:53]oh my God,

[73:53]this guy's life

[73:54]is a bummer.

[73:55]I hope he doesn't die

[73:56]in the backseat of a car.

[73:57]Why don't you

[73:59]love,

[74:00]this one is just

[74:00]right to the point.

[74:01]Why don't you love me?

[74:04]Oh,

[74:04]this is where

[74:06]during this album

[74:06]is where I started

[74:07]to feel good

[74:08]because he was doing

[74:08]so bad.

[74:09]This is a catchy tune.

[74:12]Oh,

[74:14]all these songs.

[74:16]It kind of makes you

[74:17]want to learn guitar,

[74:18]doesn't it?

[74:18]And play these.

[74:19]These can't be hard

[74:20]to play on the guitar.

[74:21]They're jams, man.

[74:23]I know we're hitting the,

[74:25]keep going.

[74:26]Just keep it moving.

[74:27]No, no, no.

[74:28]This is great.

[74:28]Why should we try anymore?

[74:31]This peaked

[74:34]at number nine

[74:34]because it was

[74:35]a little slower paced.

[74:36]Some people thought

[74:36]this was too depressing.

[74:37]This one hit home, Rob,

[74:38]recently.

[74:39]Does this one hit home for you?

[74:40]Why should we try anymore?

[74:41]You know what I thought

[74:42]was the most

[74:43]about these songs?

[74:44]How boring would it be

[74:45]to the drummer?

[74:46]All you see is the drummer

[74:47]is like, boom.

[74:48]No, no, no, no, no.

[74:50]There's like a metronome, right?

[74:51]There's only two songs

[74:53]on this whole album

[74:53]with drums.

[74:54]Well, whatever they're using

[74:55]in the back,

[74:55]if it's the bass

[74:56]or whatever that they're hitting,

[74:57]is that what it is?

[74:58]Or guitar.

[74:59]Yeah.

[75:00]It's just like

[75:01]they just hit the same thing

[75:02]over and over

[75:03]for like an hour, right?

[75:04]I would say so.

[75:05]Here's another

[75:06]Leon Payne written song,

[75:07]They'll Never Take Her Love.

[75:09]There's not one

[75:11]positive song, is there?

[75:12]Like where he's in love

[75:13]or having fun or...

[75:15]It doesn't sound depressing,

[75:17]but the lyrics are.

[75:18]They really,

[75:23]they bust out

[75:24]that steel guitar, Matt.

[75:25]We've talked about that

[75:26]before.

[75:26]I think we talked about

[75:27]the best of the steel guitar.

[75:29]It might have been on

[75:29]Neil Young or something.

[75:33]This one,

[75:34]Russell,

[75:35]is one of the two songs

[75:36]with drums.

[75:37]This yodeling, by the way,

[75:41]is so good.

[75:41]Oh, love it.

[75:48]I gotta say,

[75:51]I was playing this song

[75:52]like doing the dishes.

[75:53]I loved it.

[75:55]It was a major vibe

[75:56]at my house

[75:56]when I was playing this.

[75:57]There's a video game

[75:59]called Fallout,

[76:00]Fallout 3,

[76:00]where you kind of walk around

[76:01]and you have radio stations

[76:03]coming through your headset.

[76:03]And one of the stations

[76:05]was like this,

[76:05]where it was like

[76:06]old country Hank Williams.

[76:07]I'm telling you,

[76:09]you could play that game forever

[76:10]in this desolate wasteland

[76:11]listening to this music.

[76:12]So satisfying.

[76:14]Just put this album on,

[76:15]sit there, listen.

[76:17]You will feel better, again,

[76:18]because Hank is not doing great.

[76:20]Okay?

[76:20]Not dead.

[76:22]Nope.

[76:22]Now this one, hey,

[76:24]this one, hey,

[76:24]this has got to be a positive song.

[76:25]Listen to the title.

[76:26]Nobody's Lonesome.

[76:27]Wow.

[76:28]Everyone's doing fine.

[76:29]No way this will be depressing.

[76:31]The notes I wrote for this

[76:32]just said brutal.

[76:32]I think he's,

[76:34]it's Nobody's Lonesome for me.

[76:36]Oh.

[76:36]That's sad.

[76:37]That's bad.

[76:38]Can you imagine?

[76:40]This is an absolute crusher.

[76:41]Nobody's Lonesome for you.

[76:42]But listen to the groove.

[76:44]It's a groove.

[76:44]Yeah, yeah.

[76:45]Oh.

[76:47]Yeah, he just did this way

[76:50]of singing a nice jaunty tune

[76:52]and then just

[76:53]daggering your heart.

[76:56]Now, let me ask you this.

[76:58]Do you think a modern day rapper

[77:00]like Meg Thee Stallion

[77:01]could make a song about

[77:02]Nobody's Lonesome for me?

[77:04]But it's about wondering,

[77:05]because I saw online once,

[77:08]it was like,

[77:08]if you could see a list

[77:09]of people that have

[77:10]pleasured themselves

[77:10]thinking about you,

[77:11]would you want to see that list

[77:12]of who did that?

[77:13]No.

[77:14]Now, for Aaron,

[77:15]it would probably just be me.

[77:16]Why?

[77:17]He snuck in right at the end.

[77:20]It was a real Aerosmith moment.

[77:22]I made it.

[77:23]Rob didn't have four days

[77:24]with no family, Aaron.

[77:25]He had four days

[77:26]with no family.

[77:26]His parents two heads together,

[77:28]I thought it was a butt.

[77:29]And then at the end,

[77:30]I was like,

[77:30]I was at the very end

[77:31]of that list.

[77:31]Yeah, he was really,

[77:32]at the bottom of the barrel

[77:34]for fantasies,

[77:35]and I made it.

[77:36]You know what?

[77:36]I kind of would want to see that.

[77:38]I would want to kind of

[77:39]see that list.

[77:39]Huh?

[77:41]Maybe?

[77:42]That list is,

[77:43]I don't know.

[77:44]The list is far shorter

[77:45]than you would think,

[77:46]I'm sure.

[77:47]Like, it just,

[77:47]it would, I don't know.

[77:48]Like, how many people

[77:50]you think, like,

[77:50]double digits or not?

[77:52]No.

[77:52]At least a hundred.

[77:53]You think it's less

[77:55]than double digits for,

[77:56]you think it's over a hundred?

[77:57]Oh, yeah.

[77:59]For sure.

[77:59]Over a hundred.

[78:00]Yeah.

[78:02]I'm an erotic person.

[78:03]I, listen,

[78:04]how many downloads

[78:05]does this podcast get?

[78:06]130?

[78:06]You know somebody's

[78:08]listening to this podcast

[78:09]as they're making love.

[78:09]Hey, if you've listened

[78:10]to this podcast,

[78:11]will you make love?

[78:11]Call in, 802-277-BECK.

[78:14]Rob, I would guarantee

[78:15]that badminton coach

[78:16]from Vegas went back

[78:17]and when she was doing stuff

[78:18]with her husband,

[78:19]she was talking about you.

[78:20]Oh.

[78:21]No?

[78:22]Yeah, well, I think she,

[78:24]she did,

[78:24]she was telling me about

[78:25]how she must be like

[78:26]shuttlecock.

[78:27]Shuttlecock.

[78:28]Oh.

[78:29]Cold, cold heart.

[78:30]It sounds like a fun one.

[78:32]Uh, this one,

[78:35]this is kind of

[78:35]a funny story behind this.

[78:36]Williams wrote this song

[78:37]after visiting his wife

[78:39]when she got an infection

[78:40]from an abortion she had

[78:41]from another guy's kid.

[78:42]Oh, please.

[78:44]Oh, wait, I misread that.

[78:47]This is not a funny story

[78:49]for this one.

[78:49]Not a funny story.

[78:50]Dear John.

[78:51]I did not know,

[78:54]I didn't know this was

[78:55]a Hank Williams song.

[78:56]I know it from

[78:56]a John Prine album.

[78:57]Yeah.

[78:58]It's a great song.

[78:59]It's so good.

[79:00]Yeah.

[79:02]Oh, Moa.

[79:03]That's all she wrote.

[79:04]She put in a couple

[79:05]backup singers on it.

[79:06]That right there.

[79:07]Dear John.

[79:08]It's so good.

[79:09]Yeah.

[79:10]John Prine did a recording of it,

[79:12]but I didn't know

[79:12]it was Hank Williams.

[79:13]Great song.

[79:13]And to mark the halfway point,

[79:15]can I introduce this song?

[79:16]Yeah, of course.

[79:17]Um,

[79:18]you guys know

[79:20]the other day

[79:20]I was trying to eat a snake

[79:21]with a big old tablespoon.

[79:22]Howl!

[79:23]Listen for his fiddler,

[79:27]Jerry Rivers,

[79:28]giving the dog howl here.

[79:30]It sounded great.

[79:32]I know there's never been

[79:34]a man in the awful shape

[79:36]I'm in.

[79:37]I can't even spell

[79:39]my name.

[79:40]This is a fantastic song.

[79:42]You can hear the recording

[79:43]get better and better, too.

[79:44]Yeah.

[79:45]With a big old tablespoon.

[79:46]Tablespoon.

[79:47]You got me chasing rabbits

[79:49]walking on my hands

[79:50]and howling at the moon.

[79:52]That is a fucking howl.

[79:54]That is unbelievable.

[79:55]That guy is so good at it.

[79:57]I almost did a list

[79:58]on the best howls in music,

[80:00]but I could only get to two.

[80:02]Warren Zevon from

[80:03]from

[80:04]Werewolves of London

[80:06]and the Wolfpack NWO song

[80:09]from pro wrestling

[80:10]in the late 90s.

[80:12]What about Gilgan's Island?

[80:13]I don't know that one.

[80:14]That had Thurston Howell III.

[80:16]Hello.

[80:16]I'm on an island.

[80:18]I'm very rich.

[80:19]Guys, another great impression by me.

[80:22]Thurston Howell III.

[80:23]Thriller.

[80:24]Thriller's got a howl

[80:25]at the beginning of it.

[80:25]Oh, my God, Matt.

[80:26]Good call on the howl.

[80:27]Russ is mad now.

[80:28]He's banging the table.

[80:29]No.

[80:30]I was going to say,

[80:31]we're about,

[80:32]we're about to start side two.

[80:33]So I'm going to tell you guys

[80:35]Booze and Vinyl 1

[80:36]actually has a recommendation here.

[80:38]When do you guys think

[80:40]you listen to a Hank Williams album?

[80:42]Probably in the backseat of my car.

[80:44]Oh.

[80:45]Why?

[80:46]Anytime you're drinking too much.

[80:48]Yeah.

[80:49]Maybe by a fire.

[80:50]Outdoors on a hayride.

[80:52]It actually says

[80:54]you should,

[80:55]when to spin is on your front porch nap.

[80:57]I don't know if you still have

[80:58]a front porch in this house, Aaron,

[81:00]or not.

[81:00]I got a front porch nap.

[81:02]It needs to be replaced,

[81:03]but I have one, yeah.

[81:03]Oh.

[81:04]It says,

[81:04]grab your rocking chair

[81:06]and relax,

[81:07]preferably with a cowboy hat

[81:09]lowered on one of your eyes.

[81:10]So I got my cowboy hat on.

[81:11]Yeah, that's good.

[81:12]But they actually,

[81:13]on side two,

[81:13]they're saying you should

[81:15]have a shandy.

[81:16]A shandy.

[81:17]Oh, yeah.

[81:17]Which consists of

[81:19]a bottle of lager.

[81:20]Yeah, because it's

[81:22]48 songs long.

[81:23]So you got to

[81:24]Four ounces of lemonade.

[81:25]Take it back.

[81:25]Wow.

[81:27]And a lemon wheel

[81:27]for a garnish.

[81:28]Oh, no way.

[81:30]Yeah.

[81:32]And so

[81:32]somewhere in here,

[81:35]they recommend that you

[81:35]just do a whole pitcher of it.

[81:37]So that's what I've decided to do.

[81:38]I've got a whole pitcher

[81:39]of shandies.

[81:40]Oh, no.

[81:41]Oh, no.

[81:43]Are you going to

[81:43]finish those before bed today?

[81:44]Hey, I don't know.

[81:45]Manager's coming in.

[81:46]He's gone in the relief pitcher.

[81:47]He's gone in the righty.

[81:49]It actually,

[81:50]what it says is

[81:51]refreshing and low in alcohol.

[81:52]It's a long listening session,

[81:54]best friend.

[81:55]Heck, make up a whole pitcher

[81:56]of the stuff

[81:57]and say, move it on over.

[81:59]But you know what I will say?

[82:01]Hey, you're going to die

[82:03]like Hank Williams did.

[82:04]Is that what you're going to say?

[82:05]Because he drank a pitcher of shandy.

[82:07]I could tell you that right now.

[82:08]Now, having roomed in,

[82:09]having roomed with Russell

[82:10]in Las Vegas,

[82:11]I know that it's not above him

[82:13]or below him

[82:14]to leave an entire drink

[82:15]just sitting on the dresser

[82:17]when he goes to bed.

[82:17]There's no problem.

[82:18]He's going to have no problem.

[82:19]A pitcher.

[82:20]He doesn't finish like three days.

[82:21]No one ever cleared it

[82:22]out of there or anything.

[82:23]It just kept sitting there.

[82:24]And a shawarma.

[82:25]A shawarma and a pitcher.

[82:28]You're going to give me,

[82:29]thanks for getting me that shawarma.

[82:30]I appreciate it.

[82:31]So this calls for a lager.

[82:36]I haven't bought a lot of beer

[82:37]in the last,

[82:38]I haven't drank a lot of beer

[82:39]the last few years.

[82:40]I got,

[82:41]so I only had one type of beer.

[82:42]It was the Heineken's.

[82:44]There you go.

[82:45]From when we did that.

[82:46]Remember when we did,

[82:47]I drank the Heineken's for the,

[82:48]who's that band that people like?

[82:51]The Strokes.

[82:52]Strokes.

[82:53]The Strokes.

[82:54]Who's that band that people like?

[82:57]The Strokes.

[82:58]The Rolling Stones.

[83:00]The Strokes.

[83:01]The Heineken's Shandy.

[83:03]The Heineken's Strokes.

[83:05]That's going to be kind of bitter,

[83:07]I feel.

[83:07]Hey, I thought of another Howlin' song.

[83:09]It's,

[83:09]Hey there little red riding hood.

[83:12]Aaron, I almost put that up,

[83:14]but when you listen to that,

[83:15]that's like a very inappropriate song.

[83:17]It's true.

[83:18]That's a horrible song.

[83:18]That one should be canceled.

[83:19]It should be canceled.

[83:20]That's true.

[83:20]That's one of the reasons

[83:22]that it was not the list.

[83:23]Good point.

[83:23]Good point.

[83:24]Guys, just like when I went to the,

[83:26]a pool the other day

[83:27]and I said my shorts fell down

[83:28]and I can't pick them up,

[83:29]the lifeguard,

[83:30]I can't help it.

[83:31]I can't help it.

[83:31]There's something there.

[83:33]I think side two was not as good as,

[83:36]the second 20 weren't up to the first 20.

[83:39]But Rob's right.

[83:40]The recording quality is better.

[83:42]His sound,

[83:43]his voice is.

[83:44]Is there anybody who owns Hey Good Lookin'?

[83:46]Can you ever hear the phrase

[83:48]Hey Good Lookin'

[83:49]without saying

[83:50]what you got cookin'

[83:50]right after it?

[83:51]I mean, this song changed that forever, right?

[83:53]Right.

[83:54]It's like when you hear the word Maryland

[83:55]and all you can think of is

[83:56]she's in the caravan

[83:58]on the way to Maryland

[83:59]with the crack in the crack of her ass.

[84:01]Like, it's the same thing.

[84:02]It's like when you hear Maryland.

[84:08]Second one?

[84:10]What the hell is he talking about?

[84:12]Oh, that was the last episode.

[84:13]It's Biggie.

[84:14]It's Biggie.

[84:15]Hold on.

[84:17]So if I say Maryland,

[84:19]what do you say?

[84:19]Well, honey's in the caravan

[84:22]on the way to Maryland

[84:23]with the crack in the crack of her ass.

[84:25]That's from,

[84:25]it's a Biggie song.

[84:26]Guys, I really, I can't.

[84:31]I've only got 19 to go, Rob.

[84:32]We can get it.

[84:33]Crazy Heart.

[84:35]This is his least successful single.

[84:39]Why is it on his 40 greatest hits album?

[84:42]Don't do that.

[84:45]So many songs.

[84:46]So many songs.

[84:48]40 songs?

[84:50]I enjoy them.

[84:50]I enjoy them.

[84:51]They're great songs.

[84:52]Many great songs.

[84:53]Hey, I went to the bank the other day

[84:55]and I was like,

[84:56]listen, watch, look at this.

[84:57]I put my lips like this.

[84:58]Can't do it.

[85:00]And you know what they say?

[85:01]They said,

[85:01]oh, we can help you.

[85:03]We can lonesome whistle.

[85:05]What?

[85:08]This one's too slow.

[85:11]No, no, no, no.

[85:13]Hey, move it on over.

[85:14]Listen.

[85:14]This is a song about a train

[85:17]taking a guy to jail.

[85:19]It's my two favorite kinds of songs.

[85:20]It's a train song and a jail song.

[85:22]Listen to this,

[85:23]how he says lonesome.

[85:24]Oh, nevermind.

[85:25]It's so good.

[85:26]Johnny Cash did this one too, didn't he?

[85:29]He, they,

[85:30]they think that's what

[85:32]Folsom Prison was based around

[85:33]was that song.

[85:34]That's kind of what

[85:35]his inspiration was.

[85:35]This was his 14th.

[85:37]Can I introduce the next song?

[85:38]Of course.

[85:39]With one of the lyrics?

[85:40]Of course.

[85:41]Rob, I'm as nutty as a fruitcake

[85:43]when you're not in my arms.

[85:45]Baby, we're really in love.

[85:47]A positive song.

[85:49]Baby, we're really in love.

[85:52]In love.

[85:53]This is,

[85:53]this Hank Williams is no joke.

[85:55]This is fantastic.

[85:56]Happy with you.

[85:57]Hope you just gave us a show.

[86:00]Next up,

[86:01]Ramblin' Man.

[86:03]I'm going to ramble,

[86:05]ramblin' man.

[86:06]Oh, wait.

[86:06]This is a minor, Rosie.

[86:09]This is one of his few minors.

[86:10]Right, right.

[86:11]It's like when Francis Scott

[86:15]was digging coal.

[86:17]No, let me do the jokes, Rosie.

[86:21]Oh my God.

[86:23]I can't believe I'm trying

[86:24]to write this national anthem.

[86:26]And meanwhile,

[86:26]I got to go to my job

[86:28]in the diamond mines?

[86:29]I don't know.

[86:30]That's a minor key.

[86:32]Hello.

[86:35]Francis Scott Key here.

[86:37]What key is his national anthem in?

[86:40]My head and me.

[86:43]Honky Tonk Blues.

[86:45]He had trouble recording this.

[86:49]I talked about this

[86:49]on the Ray Charles episode

[86:50]a little bit.

[86:51]I don't remember that one.

[86:53]Another good song.

[86:56]They're all good songs.

[86:58]Get the honky tonk blues.

[87:00]I bet the honky tonk blues is,

[87:05]you need an antibiotic for that.

[87:06]That sounds really bad.

[87:07]I'm sorry for you, my friend.

[87:09]Oh, no.

[87:10]Worst song on the 40.

[87:16]How could you know?

[87:17]There's so many songs.

[87:18]When's Jambalaya coming?

[87:20]When's Window Shopping?

[87:22]Russell rates everything.

[87:24]He's a list guy.

[87:25]I listen.

[87:26]I listen.

[87:26]I pay attention.

[87:27]I respect that about you.

[87:30]Here's what

[87:31]Russell something date.

[87:36]Half as much.

[87:37]Just make your own.

[87:39]I'm too tired.

[87:40]Two months.

[87:41]I give up.

[87:42]If you love me

[87:48]half as much as I love you.

[87:50]This one is also known as the song.

[87:52]You know where you messed up

[87:54]and didn't do the right parody song?

[87:56]Yeah, what's that?

[87:56]You should have done

[87:58]Matt's notes on Jambalaya.

[87:59]Like the notes.

[88:00]You can't understand.

[88:01]It should have been like

[88:02]Menzies from whatever

[88:04]and all the stuff, Matt.

[88:05]You should have put that in.

[88:06]Menzies and flashlights.

[88:07]Oh, my.

[88:08]Oh, pervert elbow.

[88:10]Yes.

[88:11]Jambalaya.

[88:13]His most covered song.

[88:15]Oh, this one?

[88:16]Yep.

[88:17]Goodbye, Joe.

[88:19]Me gotta go.

[88:20]Me oh my.

[88:22]I am realizing now

[88:24]that when I put in

[88:25]two seconds of music

[88:26]before he sings

[88:27]over 40 songs,

[88:29]that's actually quite a bit of time.

[88:30]Yeah.

[88:30]Yeah.

[88:30]Yeah.

[88:30]Yeah.

[88:30]Yeah.

[88:30]This album that's devoted

[88:31]to that same notes like

[88:32]doo-doo-doo-doo-doo-doo-doo-doo-doo

[88:35]before he's talking about

[88:35]how he wants to like

[88:36]go stick his head

[88:37]in the outhouse.

[88:38]This is the song that led me

[88:39]to Googling Philae powder,

[88:40]which I still don't know

[88:41]exactly what it is,

[88:42]but I know it thickens your gumbo.

[88:43]What are you talking about?

[88:46]Philae powder?

[88:47]Philae powder.

[88:49]It's what thickens the gumbo.

[88:50]I don't know what it's made of, but.

[88:51]You Googled this?

[88:55]Yeah, because he says

[88:57]Philae in the song

[88:58]and you got to know

[88:59]what he's talking about.

[88:59]So you Google.

[89:00]No, I do not need

[89:03]to know what he's talking about.

[89:04]There's a song called Jambalaya.

[89:06]I am not looking up the lyrics.

[89:07]30 seconds ago,

[89:08]you ripped me for having

[89:09]an opinion on one of the 40 songs

[89:10]and you're like,

[89:11]you're Googling Philae powder.

[89:12]I know.

[89:13]I know.

[89:13]I got to get Aaron's job.

[89:15]I got to get Aaron's job.

[89:16]I got to get Aaron's job.

[89:16]I'm at my job

[89:18]like working hard

[89:19]and having meetings

[89:19]and doing shit.

[89:20]Aaron's looking up Philae powder.

[89:21]How many classes

[89:23]are you teaching these days?

[89:24]Man, I'm giving

[89:24]performance reviews

[89:25]while I'm looking up

[89:26]Philae powder.

[89:27]Window shopping.

[89:30]Your window shopping.

[89:33]Rob, you might give away

[89:34]your kisses in Vegas,

[89:35]but you never give away

[89:36]your heart.

[89:37]We have so many songs left.

[89:40]Windows 95 shopping.

[89:42]That was me in high school.

[89:43]I got a new computer.

[89:44]I had Windows 95 on it.

[89:46]Setting the woods on fire.

[89:49]That seems like a bad idea.

[89:51]Nah, it's fun.

[89:53]I actually like it.

[89:55]You act proud

[89:57]and I'll act proud.

[89:58]We're so tired.

[90:00]You win again.

[90:01]This was recorded one day

[90:04]after his divorce was finalized.

[90:05]This has some of his best

[90:09]singing, I think.

[90:10]This is hard.

[90:12]This is hard to sing along.

[90:14]I mean, his voice is just...

[90:19]And when he does

[90:19]What Can I Do?

[90:20]That's classic, great singing.

[90:25]Some of the best vocalizing

[90:27]in American history.

[90:28]The moment you've been waiting for it,

[90:29]the last single,

[90:30]released during his lifetime

[90:32]with only six songs

[90:34]left on this album.

[90:35]I'll Never Get Out of This World Alive.

[90:39]Tough one to be released last

[90:41]in your life.

[90:42]See, now I do think

[90:46]you can start to hear him

[90:47]wearing down here a little bit.

[90:48]Back problems, alcoholism,

[90:51]prescription pills,

[90:52]going to Vegas,

[90:54]wanting to go to a restaurant

[90:55]instead of having fun

[90:56]with his friends.

[90:57]Very long podcast.

[91:00]The other song that has

[91:02]drums on it,

[91:03]Kailaga.

[91:04]You don't have to play

[91:05]Kailaga.

[91:06]You can just skip it.

[91:07]You can skip it.

[91:09]Yep.

[91:10]This one was like

[91:12]way out of line

[91:13]with everything else.

[91:13]I don't understand it.

[91:15]You're Cheating Heart.

[91:18]There we go.

[91:19]Country's most important standard.

[91:20]You know,

[91:22]more important than

[91:25]Stand By Your Man?

[91:25]One of our favorite artists ever,

[91:29]Beck, has covered a

[91:30]number of Hank Williams songs.

[91:32]He's covered Lonesome Whistle,

[91:34]I'm So Lonesome I Could Cry,

[91:36]Lovesick Blues,

[91:36]You Win Again.

[91:37]But he also covered

[91:39]You're Cheating Heart

[91:39]on an album called

[91:41]Hank Williams.

[91:42]Oh.

[91:43]It had to be called

[91:44]something else.

[91:44]But there was Bob Dylan,

[91:45]Sheryl Crow, Tom Petty,

[91:46]Keith Richards,

[91:47]Lucinda Williams,

[91:48]Johnny Cash,

[91:49]all covered songs

[91:50]for one album.

[91:51]All covers of Hank Williams.

[91:52]Check out

[91:53]You're Cheating Heart by Beck.

[91:54]It's crazy.

[91:57]He likes to do this

[92:00]kind of thing.

[92:00]That creepy

[92:01]atmospheric thing.

[92:02]Right?

[92:03]Kind of Roy Orbison song.

[92:05]Oh, you're right.

[92:06]It's funny to think

[92:08]of that list you did,

[92:09]Russell,

[92:10]that so many of those people

[92:11]are dead

[92:12]except for Keith Richards.

[92:13]He's like,

[92:14]yeah, I'm fine.

[92:14]Yeah.

[92:17]That's funny, isn't it?

[92:19]So I think

[92:22]when it comes to covering

[92:24]one of the greatest songwriters ever,

[92:26]who did it better?

[92:26]That's what we're going with?

[92:29]Beck.

[92:29]I don't know.

[92:30]What do you want me

[92:30]to do better for that?

[92:31]Okay, we're going to

[92:32]guys right now.

[92:33]You know what?

[92:33]Energy up.

[92:34]It's taking every bit of me

[92:35]not to skip my Muppets thing.

[92:37]I say I'm skipping it

[92:38]because we're going too slow.

[92:39]No, come on, Russell.

[92:40]What is the Muppets?

[92:41]Wait, is there a Muppets thing?

[92:42]So, so, you know,

[92:44]a lot of these songs

[92:45]are about unrequited love,

[92:46]like all this lonesomeness

[92:48]and everything.

[92:48]And the Muppets actually

[92:49]have a song like this, too.

[92:50]It's a bluegrass song.

[92:51]I forgot the name of it,

[92:53]but you can play it, Rob.

[92:53]You don't want my love.

[92:55]And it actually,

[92:56]it actually features

[92:57]the drummer from Dr.

[92:59]Ethan Back in Gold.

[93:00]Don't want your love.

[93:02]Yeah.

[93:06]Whoa.

[93:08]It's cold and you're so warm.

[93:10]I can't get it out of the Muppets.

[93:15]Russell, you might be

[93:16]on to something

[93:16]with the Muppets songs

[93:17]being good.

[93:18]They're fun.

[93:18]I get it.

[93:19]Oh, my God.

[93:20]Oh, I can't remember

[93:23]where we left off, guys.

[93:23]We better start over.

[93:24]It kind of is.

[93:25]First song, move it on over.

[93:26]Okay.

[93:27]Take these chains.

[93:29]Green.

[93:29]From my heart.

[93:31]Take these tears

[93:33]from my eyes

[93:35]and let me see.

[93:36]Yeah, we don't need

[93:37]to make this like

[93:38]a medical procedure.

[93:39]Has Norah Jones

[93:40]covered more of these songs

[93:41]than I think?

[93:41]I feel like she covered

[93:42]this one, too, right?

[93:43]Norah Jones has covered

[93:45]a bunch of these.

[93:46]She has, right?

[93:46]Okay.

[93:47]I won't be home.

[93:49]I won't be home

[93:50]no more.

[93:51]Again,

[93:54]Divorce the Day Before This.

[93:56]It's been time

[93:57]to be too late.

[93:58]I tried,

[93:59]I'll tell you what, guys.

[94:00]If I get divorced,

[94:01]we're doing a podcast

[94:01]the next day.

[94:02]We're going to do

[94:03]the Hank Williams special.

[94:04]For this guy, though,

[94:05]his divorce sounds probably

[94:06]like the most positive

[94:08]day of his life.

[94:08]If it happens, Rob,

[94:09]I'm here for you.

[94:10]At least I didn't jump

[94:11]in like an empty river.

[94:12]Hey, Roland, go on.

[94:14]My life has fallen apart.

[94:16]I'm living in a tiny apartment

[94:18]way out in Queens now.

[94:19]I just think back

[94:21]about how many mistakes

[94:22]I've made.

[94:22]But the kebabs are good.

[94:24]Yeah, I just,

[94:25]I thought it'd be fun

[94:26]living by myself,

[94:27]but it really isn't.

[94:29]And, you know,

[94:30]Russell, how's it going?

[94:31]How's it going with you?

[94:32]Oh, yeah, I went,

[94:33]what do you guys think

[94:35]about sandwiches?

[94:36]Sandwiches are good.

[94:37]You just hear me crying

[94:38]in the background.

[94:39]Oh, my God.

[94:40]A hot dog.

[94:40]Is it a sandwich?

[94:41]Hot dog flavored water.

[94:43]You just hear me cry.

[94:44]Oh, what did I do?

[94:46]We were together

[94:47]for 17 beautiful years.

[94:49]We can't do it.

[94:50]We're so close.

[94:50]Only two songs left

[94:51]and he can't play them.

[94:52]He wants to hit

[94:54]the 3 a.m. mark.

[94:55]He's got to do it.

[94:56]He's trying so hard.

[94:57]He wants to make it.

[94:59]Hey, guys,

[95:00]this album is a rolling

[95:01]dissolution of my marriage.

[95:03]I can't believe

[95:04]it happened.

[95:05]But I'm here

[95:06]doing the podcast.

[95:07]We're going to put out

[95:07]number 346.

[95:09]Who the fuck knows

[95:11]what band that is?

[95:12]Matt, what's 346?

[95:14]Tell me what that's going to be.

[95:15]My divorce special.

[95:16]My Hank Williams special.

[95:17]Weary Blues from Waitin'.

[95:20]Arctic Monkeys, A.M.

[95:24]Oh, Arctic Monkeys.

[95:25]That would be fun.

[95:25]Oh, another slow one.

[95:28]Within 10 weeks,

[95:29]weeks of his death,

[95:30]he had as many albums

[95:31]on the market

[95:32]as he did when he lived.

[95:33]If I die,

[95:37]I need to tell you guys

[95:38]how to transfer.

[95:39]No, I don't want this conversation.

[95:39]I need to tell you guys

[95:40]how to transfer this podcast

[95:42]to a non-pay one

[95:43]so it's just going to be up forever.

[95:44]The worst part of

[95:45]if that happened, Rob,

[95:46]is if we needed to take down

[95:48]all the episodes,

[95:48]we wouldn't have the password

[95:50]because your wife

[95:51]has terrible password skills.

[95:52]Oh, my God.

[95:52]So if we ask for, like,

[95:54]the pod bean password,

[95:56]we wouldn't be able to get in.

[95:57]Yeah.

[95:57]I'll tell you what.

[95:59]I don't know.

[95:59]You might need to resend

[96:01]that sometime soon.

[96:02]Yeah, maybe write it down.

[96:03]Matt knows it.

[96:04]Matt knows it.

[96:05]He gets an Instagram with it.

[96:06]Oh, I have no idea.

[96:09]Oh, my God.

[96:10]Guys, you better pray I live.

[96:12]I do every day.

[96:15]Oh, that's depressing.

[96:17]That's actually more depressing.

[96:18]It's my first time

[96:19]to step up on the internet

[96:21]for every single day.

[96:21]First thing I do

[96:21]when I wake up every morning

[96:22]is I pray that Rob lives

[96:23]through this day.

[96:24]And it's already, you know,

[96:25]9 a.m. your time

[96:26]by the time I wake up.

[96:27]We started.

[96:29]Number one.

[96:30]This is Casey Kasem

[96:32]counting down the top 40

[96:34]Hank Williams songs

[96:35]going from one to 40

[96:36]in an order that only

[96:37]insane people would do

[96:39]if they were maybe

[96:39]devoting a large part

[96:40]of their life, it turns out,

[96:41]to doing something like this.

[96:43]Number one

[96:45]was moving on over.

[96:46]Number 40.

[96:48]I saw the light.

[96:53]Is this an Asa Bay song?

[96:54]Oh, that's a good joke, Eric.

[96:58]It is an Asa Bay song.

[96:59]Give Aaron the...

[97:00]You guys give Aaron

[97:01]the credit he deserves

[97:02]for that joke.

[97:03]I think they covered this one.

[97:05]Laugh.

[97:05]Low-hanging fruit.

[97:06]Low-hanging.

[97:07]Low-hanging fruit.

[97:08]Wow.

[97:11]I'm not going to make

[97:12]all of that she wants

[97:13]is another baby joke, okay?

[97:14]It's not going to happen.

[97:15]I didn't realize

[97:22]he had written that.

[97:22]I do love gospel songs.

[97:23]He wrote this song?

[97:24]He wrote...

[97:25]It says he wrote that song.

[97:26]I thought that was just

[97:27]like a song that just existed

[97:28]and like came out

[97:29]of the ether.

[97:29]Right.

[97:30]Did we all do...

[97:33]It ends well.

[97:33]Holy cow.

[97:34]They're ending with that song.

[97:35]That's a great song.

[97:36]Did we all do rolling going?

[97:38]Do we need to go back

[97:39]and do it?

[97:39]Is there one more we need to do?

[97:40]Guys, let's...

[97:42]I'm going to ask you guys

[97:42]for instructions

[97:43]on this over positive.

[97:44]Oh, God.

[97:45]That was this episode.

[97:46]It was.

[97:47]Oh, no.

[97:49]Are we...

[97:52]Are we recording?

[97:53]Did we...

[97:54]Oh, I pushed stop record

[97:56]on everything.

[97:57]We need to start over.

[97:59]Listen, guys.

[98:01]I knew we'd end

[98:01]this podcast somehow.

[98:03]It would go down

[98:03]in a fiery blaze of glory.

[98:05]Here's the deal.

[98:07]Hank Williams...

[98:08]I still got a half a pitcher

[98:09]of these shandies to drink.

[98:10]Oh, no.

[98:11]I forgot about that.

[98:12]Jesus Christ.

[98:12]Rob, you got...

[98:14]You got an Olympiad

[98:16]or something like that

[98:16]coming up?

[98:17]I got basketball practice

[98:18]in about six hours.

[98:19]I'll tell you what.

[98:20]Are you coaching

[98:20]or just watching?

[98:21]Just watching.

[98:22]I just have to get up

[98:23]and feed breakfast

[98:24]and get them there.

[98:25]I'm not going to lie.

[98:25]I have never been

[98:26]as worried about Russell

[98:27]since the Skittles.

[98:29]Drink incident.

[98:29]As I am with this pitcher.

[98:31]I've really...

[98:32]I've probably consumed

[98:33]about half a beer so far.

[98:34]You're doing okay.

[98:36]Listen.

[98:37]This album,

[98:39]132,

[98:40]Hank Williams,

[98:41]40 greatest hits.

[98:43]Okay?

[98:44]Not to be confused.

[98:45]Okay?

[98:46]I was on a YouTube

[98:47]and you guys

[98:47]wouldn't believe this.

[98:48]I was on YouTube

[98:48]and I was watching

[98:49]and I just saw

[98:50]home run after home run

[98:52]and I had accidentally

[98:53]clicked on Hank Aaron's

[98:54]greatest 40 hits.

[98:56]Greatest hits.

[98:56]Yeah.

[98:56]Yeah.

[98:59]Yeah.

[98:59]Yeah.

[98:59]It's a good joke.

[99:00]And I'm not going to make

[99:03]a Roberto Clemente

[99:04]two hits joke.

[99:06]Okay?

[99:07]I think he had

[99:08]300 homers, didn't he?

[99:09]Hey, you know what?

[99:11]I'll keep this brief,

[99:14]but Rob, how did he die?

[99:15]Well, he had one big hit

[99:17]to end.

[99:17]It's when his plane

[99:19]hit the ground.

[99:20]Now,

[99:21]another classic Rob bit.

[99:23]Bringing everybody up.

[99:25]Hey, I break you down

[99:26]and then sometimes

[99:27]I build you back up.

[99:28]Here's the deal.

[99:29]This is Hank Williams'

[99:31]40 greatest hits

[99:32]as decided

[99:33]by this people

[99:35]who put together this record

[99:36]who made us listen to it

[99:37]and they're making us

[99:38]do a long episode.

[99:39]Rude.

[99:39]Something to think about.

[99:40]Now,

[99:41]is this album at 132

[99:43]perfectly matched?

[99:44]It's perfect.

[99:45]It goes right there.

[99:46]I love it.

[99:46]Okay.

[99:48]Is this

[99:49]a little

[99:50]I saw the light

[99:51]on songs

[99:52]and should be further back,

[99:53]which of course

[99:53]is a higher number

[99:54]that would be rolling grown.

[99:56]It is not that great.

[99:57]Or,

[99:59]is this album

[99:59]should be way higher.

[100:00]Guys,

[100:01]this is the

[100:01]everything's based on this.

[100:02]It should be way higher.

[100:03]That would be a rolling bone

[100:04]that should have been higher up.

[100:05]Rosie,

[100:06]what do you think?

[100:06]Rolling well-toned,

[100:07]rolling bone

[100:07]or rolling grown

[100:08]Hank Williams top 40?

[100:10]And Aaron,

[100:11]can you hurry up, please?

[100:12]Outrageous.

[100:13]This is not an album.

[100:14]I love these songs.

[100:16]They're great songs.

[100:16]He's a great songwriter.

[100:17]It's not an album.

[100:18]It doesn't belong on the list.

[100:20]We got to figure out

[100:21]another way to honor

[100:21]Hank Williams

[100:22]that doesn't involve

[100:23]putting a not album

[100:24]on an album list.

[100:25]Rolling grown.

[100:27]Russell.

[100:29]I'm going to echo.

[100:30]Oh,

[100:31]sorry,

[100:31]Robbie.

[100:32]I'm going to echo.

[100:34]I'm going to echo

[100:35]Aaron's thoughts on this.

[100:36]I love all the songs.

[100:37]I could listen to a lot

[100:38]of this stuff over and over,

[100:39]but it's not an album.

[100:41]I don't really understand

[100:42]why it's on the list.

[100:42]It's comparing apples to oranges.

[100:44]So I'm going to say

[100:45]it's rolling grown.

[100:46]I'm going to come in hot

[100:46]right at the end here and say,

[100:47]I think this is a secret

[100:48]college vibe.

[100:49]I do think you could play

[100:50]this for a little bit

[100:51]and get away with it.

[100:52]Cool guy on the floor.

[100:53]Yes.

[100:54]A little too much.

[100:55]You'd get depressed,

[100:56]but I think it's a little bit

[100:57]would be great.

[100:57]Matt,

[100:58]what do you think?

[100:58]Rolling well-toned,

[100:58]rolling bone or rolling grown?

[101:00]Tell the one list.

[101:01]Tell John for me,

[101:02]Diana,

[101:03]the one person

[101:03]who's still listening.

[101:04]Everybody,

[101:05]I was going to go with

[101:07]everything that Rosie said.

[101:08]Rolling grown.

[101:09]This is not an album.

[101:10]This is not made

[101:12]for this list.

[101:13]We want to best

[101:14]singers of all time,

[101:16]best writers,

[101:16]best country songs.

[101:18]Great.

[101:18]We'll add it to that list,

[101:19]but this is not an album

[101:21]and does not belong.

[101:23]So it's rolling grown.

[101:24]Unfortunately,

[101:24]you are incorrect.

[101:25]That's shock.

[101:28]Just shot.

[101:28]I'm just shocked at that.

[101:30]This album is a rolling

[101:31]domination.

[101:31]Okay.

[101:33]I'm going to show

[101:34]this guy has more hits

[101:35]than Bobby Bonilla

[101:37]is what I wrote yesterday.

[101:38]And apparently I thought

[101:38]that was the funniest thing

[101:39]I can come up with.

[101:40]Terrible.

[101:41]The first Bobby Bonilla joke

[101:43]that didn't relate

[101:44]to his annuity.

[101:45]This guy is really,

[101:47]you cannot ignore

[101:48]hit after hit.

[101:49]He basically built.

[101:50]I mean,

[101:51]you're telling me

[101:51]that moving on over

[101:52]is not the first

[101:53]rock and roll song.

[101:54]Listen to this.

[101:55]This is the first

[101:56]rock and roll song.

[101:57]Fuck Bill.

[101:57]Haley.

[101:58]Fuck the Comets.

[101:59]This is number one.

[102:00]10 years earlier.

[102:01]This is it.

[102:03]This is it.

[102:04]This is number one.

[102:05]This is should be

[102:06]number one on the list.

[102:06]Greatest album of all time.

[102:08]Thank you.

[102:09]End of story.

[102:09]Rob's right.

[102:10]Next up.

[102:11]This album sounds

[102:12]like a move

[102:13]that somebody choked me

[102:14]with at jujitsu this week.

[102:15]It's what a Jira

[102:17]by Joni Mitchell.

[102:18]Oh,

[102:18]it's one of Prince's

[102:19]favorite Joni Mitchell albums.

[102:21]When you want to hear

[102:22]about the greatest

[102:23]albums of all time.

[102:24]Guys,

[102:24]there were a lot of songs

[102:25]we should have spent

[102:25]through that a little faster.

[102:26]But you're just too good.

[102:27]We're actually

[102:28]not bad on time.

[102:29]Speak for yourself,

[102:33]Russell.

[102:33]Speak for yourself.

[102:34]I've got the perfect

[102:39]podcast for you,

[102:40]Jack.

[102:41]Beck did it better.

[102:43]It's too bad

[102:44]that this wasn't

[102:45]the 41 greatest hits

[102:47]by Hank Williams

[102:47]because the number 41

[102:48]that got left off the list

[102:49]was called

[102:50]Cheese Balls

[102:52]Chew Spit.

[102:52]People kind of said

[102:54]the critics have said

[102:55]it's kind of pleasant

[102:56]but not memorable.

[102:57]It's time

[103:00]Let them hear that dig.

[103:01]Goodbye.

[103:03]Goodbye.

[103:04]That was about the best one

[103:05]you've done in a while.

[103:06]That was a good one there.

[103:07]Beep.
