Pixies: Doolittle (1989)

Beck Did It Better Podcast 1989
About this episodeIf man is five, and the devil is six, then that must make Beck Did it Better seven because this week we are the best Pixies podcast when we cover the 141st greatest album of all time, Doolittle. Before we get to the album we let loose our king gizzard and lizard wizard for some lively discussion of sapiosexuals, phone call etiquette, birthday gifts, and the most important bartending skills. We think you should save and bookmark this episode, but even if you don't like it, you can't be mad at us because we talked about Hamilton last week. Then at (51:00) we discuss the Pixies second studio al

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

[00:05]This resulted in a text chain that celebrated the music, excoriated the order, and led us to making this podcast.

[00:09]We are far from experts. We promise to do almost no research.

[00:12]All opinions are our own, unless you disagree.

[00:14]There's a delay. There's a delay on the zoom.

[00:17]Please sit back and enjoy.

[00:19]Beck did it better.

[00:21]That's a good place for the gong right there, right?

[00:23]We are up to album 141.

[00:26]And from 1989, it's Pixies, not the Pixies, Pixies with Doolittle.

[00:32]And folks, there's nothing more to say.

[00:35]Sometimes, here's the thing.

[00:37]I think we're getting to the point in the podcast where I'm not going to know some of these albums, right?

[00:41]And then maybe sometimes instead of working on your parody songs and learning the songs and being able to sing it,

[00:46]maybe you play video games all morning and then actually run out of time in the evening to make a song,

[00:52]so you have to do one very quickly.

[00:53]And that's a story that somebody else told me because that wasn't me.

[00:56]I'm hard at work.

[00:57]I am grind set mindset.

[00:58]I'm working all day.

[01:00]This is my hustle.

[01:01]This is the worst side hustle I've ever had in my life.

[01:03]So let's turn on K-Rob and listen to a totally unrelated song.

[01:08]What's up, everybody?

[01:10]Welcome to K-Rob.

[01:11]K-R-O-B.

[01:14]And that is the wrong episode.

[01:17]Here we go.

[01:18]What's up, everybody?

[01:21]Welcome to K-Rob.

[01:22]K-R-O-B.

[01:24]You know, sometimes Rob doesn't know these albums very well.

[01:26]He still has to do it.

[01:26]He still has to make a parody song.

[01:27]And this time, Rob had to make a song that was also a little bit of a pep talk for him.

[01:32]Oh, yeah.

[01:33]Hey.

[01:36]Been trying to get through.

[01:42]Yeah.

[01:43]Hey.

[01:49]Parody song.

[01:52]When you don't know it, but you need to quote it all ahead.

[01:56]And now it's a chore.

[01:58]Can I stop doing this instead?

[02:00]But hey.

[02:02]Best bit is running thin.

[02:07]Thin.

[02:09]I asked the guys.

[02:15]And they explained.

[02:18]They explained.

[02:21]Songs are great.

[02:23]Whoa.

[02:24]Woo-hoo-hoo.

[02:26]The songs are great.

[02:28]Well, they're my faves.

[02:33]Wow.

[02:34]The reviews are rave.

[02:39]In fact, if it got a grade, they would all be A's.

[02:48]Because the songs are great.

[02:52]When I want to hear about the greatest album.

[02:55]I don't know.

[02:56]I don't know any of the songs on this album, guys.

[02:57]None.

[02:58]I salute you.

[02:59]That was rough.

[03:03]That was tough to do.

[03:04]Talent.

[03:05]Raw talent.

[03:08]Raw.

[03:10]Uncut.

[03:11]I'm going to give it to you, Beck.

[03:14]We did it better.

[03:15]Real raw.

[03:15]Listen.

[03:17]I am here.

[03:19]We are talking about Pixies.

[03:20]I've got three guys with me that want to talk about the album that's 141 on the list as

[03:25]we enter into the 40.

[03:26]This is 40.

[03:27]Except this is 140, if you think about it.

[03:29]Matt in Minneapolis.

[03:30]Matt, how are you doing?

[03:31]Good.

[03:33]Rosie, if you are five, Rob, if your parody songs are six, then Russell's are definitely

[03:40]seven.

[03:41]Russell's parody songs are definitely seven.

[03:43]Definitely seven.

[03:44]Shot.

[03:45]Definitely seven.

[03:46]If the devil is six, then the God is seven.

[03:50]I've got Russell in Minnesota.

[03:51]Russell, how are you doing?

[03:52]I'm doing great.

[03:53]When Rob goes through jujitsu, he's an app and rapper.

[03:56]He's an app and tap and catharsis.

[03:57]When he gets choked out, he gets erected.

[04:00]His blood is working, but his heart is dead.

[04:02]Rob hit the crapper.

[04:03]The crapper.

[04:04]Rob hit the crapper.

[04:05]The crapper.

[04:06]Here comes the man.

[04:09]And I've got Aaron out in California.

[04:13]Now, Aaron, he's mad.

[04:15]He was telling us earlier.

[04:16]He's mad.

[04:17]He's like, I can't even put out breadcrumbs anymore to trick kids to come to my house

[04:21]so I can eat them.

[04:22]What?

[04:23]Yeah.

[04:24]It's all because of the stupid Hansel.

[04:26]It's culture.

[04:26]Hansel culture.

[04:28]And I almost screwed up the joke, but I pulled it out.

[04:29]It's actually not funny because in the break, there was a fucking possum on my porch eating

[04:33]the cat's food.

[04:34]I hope this episode doesn't turn into a wave of mutilation.

[04:38]Let's talk about pixies.

[04:39]It wasn't that same possum that was whittling through the Oakland A's.

[04:43]That would be a long trek for a possum.

[04:46]Cometary move the other day, was it?

[04:48]Yeah.

[04:48]I don't know how far a possum moves in a day, but.

[04:50]You mean the Las Vegas Aces?

[04:52]Go Aces.

[04:53]They're my favorite baseball team now.

[04:55]No.

[04:55]Those fuckers are going to take.

[04:56]They're going to take the A's name.

[04:56]Oh, don't even.

[04:57]Fucking.

[04:58]I'm not.

[04:59]Aaron.

[04:59]I can't.

[05:00]I don't listen to the news.

[05:02]How many times do I have to tell you?

[05:04]Maybe if you spent some more time, maybe if you spent some more time buying some baseball

[05:08]tickets instead of buying the super overpriced house in the Bay Area, they'd still be there.

[05:13]Priorities.

[05:15]Oh, yeah.

[05:16]If only the fans had supported them.

[05:17]Aaron, I'm like a terrible lifeguard.

[05:20]I'm not up on current events.

[05:22]Listen, let's go to the.

[05:24]What?

[05:25]Did you guys hear that?

[05:26]Hello?

[05:26]Is my mic on?

[05:27]Am I muted?

[05:28]Can you repeat that one?

[05:29]That's been happening to me in real life.

[05:32]You guys.

[05:32]I had to like, I don't know what happens.

[05:33]Like we had the incident last week where I said airheads and no one heard me.

[05:37]And then the next day I go to T-ball and there's a extra ball out on the field.

[05:42]I'm trying to call time and no one can hear me.

[05:43]And I'm like, am I in a weird vortex?

[05:45]I'm talking.

[05:46]No one can hear me.

[05:46]Am I muted in real life now?

[05:48]Russell, do you think it's strange that we give long pauses and none of us talk and we

[05:51]also don't hear anything during this podcast?

[05:53]It's kind of strange, but.

[05:55]Sometimes really.

[05:56]Long pauses.

[05:56]All right.

[05:58]Oh yeah, right.

[05:59]Eric, come on.

[06:01]We got to keep this show rolling.

[06:02]And you might notice we're not doing a lot of chitter chatter between our segments.

[06:04]Okay.

[06:05]And it's not because this is our second episode of the night.

[06:06]Rob, do you mind if I actually had a second intro line I thought I could try out for you

[06:11]guys?

[06:11]I thought this would be a great opener if I were to ever be a comic.

[06:14]Okay.

[06:15]Let's hear it.

[06:15]I just want to lose enough weight that I can cheat on a Hamilton musical unappreciated.

[06:21]That's so good.

[06:24]What do you think of that?

[06:25]It's like an.

[06:26]It's like an opening joke.

[06:27]Really going for it.

[06:28]That's universal.

[06:28]Sometimes you just hear those jokes and you're wondering how this joke came out fully formed.

[06:33]This was formed by like God on this.

[06:35]But if you remember last week, you were given a two week pass.

[06:38]So you're still, you're one, you're, you're halfway through your pass.

[06:40]So you're good.

[06:40]You're good to say that.

[06:41]Oh, I'm taking it.

[06:43]If Rob hits the crapper.

[06:44]Well, wait until you guys hear my rolling going and then you'll see why Russell might

[06:48]need to hold onto that pass.

[06:50]Let's get into our voicemail and just when you think maybe the parody song is going to

[06:56]are not going that great.

[06:57]Cause I don't know the songs and I'm not putting a lot of effort into it.

[06:59]I get a voicemail like this.

[07:01]Nice.

[07:01]The parody songs are the highlight of the podcast.

[07:05]You should create a Spotify playlist of just the parody songs.

[07:09]We've said that.

[07:10]Yeah.

[07:10]Also the recent Aaron parody about food transitioning to feet was brilliant.

[07:14]Oh, Rob should win a Nobel peace prize for that songwriting.

[07:18]Thank you.

[07:19]Is this a message from Rob to himself?

[07:21]I was going to say, tell the truth.

[07:23]You can officially put the dumb shit listener thing.

[07:25]Oh,

[07:26]the Nobel peace prize for your,

[07:29]for your writing about Aaron's feet.

[07:32]Rob,

[07:32]pull up your soundboard with the emojis.

[07:34]Where's the dumb shit listener one?

[07:36]The dumb shit.

[07:36]Well, no,

[07:37]that's in my voicemail.

[07:38]Oh,

[07:38]I didn't play this.

[07:39]Oh no.

[07:40]Dumb,

[07:40]dumb,

[07:41]dumb,

[07:41]dumb,

[07:41]dumb,

[07:41]dumb,

[07:41]dumb,

[07:42]dumb,

[07:42]dumb,

[07:42]dumb shit listeners.

[07:43]Listeners.

[07:43]They don't,

[07:44]don't,

[07:44]don't,

[07:44]don't,

[07:44]don't,

[07:44]don't,

[07:45]don't,

[07:45]don't,

[07:45]don't shit listeners.

[07:46]They don't listeners.

[07:46]They put shit.

[07:48]Now you guys,

[07:50]listen,

[07:50]this is the same person.

[07:51]They've texted me us about the Rod Stewart rumor.

[07:53]They talked about Russ's cowboy hat.

[07:56]They've sent me menu pictures.

[07:58]This is a true listener.

[08:00]This is a true friend and actually kind of a,

[08:02]you know,

[08:03]I'm kind of a sapiosexual.

[08:04]So I'm kind of attracted to this listener.

[08:05]Cause they sound really smart.

[08:07]Okay.

[08:08]And if you don't know what a sapiosexual is,

[08:10]guess what?

[08:11]I don't want you to suck my balls.

[08:13]The irony of being a sapiosexual.

[08:17]I'm a sapiosexual.

[08:18]What's that?

[08:21]The universal anti-boner noise.

[08:24]It is a little,

[08:25]yeah.

[08:25]A little bit of a loophole.

[08:27]It's funny.

[08:28]Cause it's like the opposite of the THX noise.

[08:30]Like it was like,

[08:30]cause the THX goes up in pitch and the anti-boner.

[08:33]It's great.

[08:33]It's very clever.

[08:34]I mean,

[08:34]that is a great,

[08:35]like opening line.

[08:36]If someone on their dating app has,

[08:37]I'm a sapiosexual.

[08:39]Like,

[08:40]like how do you not say what's a sapiosexual,

[08:42]right?

[08:42]Oh yeah.

[08:43]It's the ultimate test.

[08:44]It's the swipe,

[08:46]whatever the wrong way is.

[08:47]Yeah.

[08:50]Do you think that you think they like,

[08:53]well,

[08:53]nevermind.

[08:53]I have no good bits about that.

[08:55]So listen,

[08:56]they love the songs.

[08:57]You know what?

[08:58]Thanks to this caller.

[08:59]I'll let that stop you.

[09:00]I'll tell you what I had written a song.

[09:02]Oh,

[09:03]I had written a song about to stir it up last week where I was going to say,

[09:07]give it up.

[09:07]And it was about how we should give up the podcast.

[09:09]And it was this really detailed song about how it's so bad.

[09:11]And it legit bummed me out.

[09:13]And it made me like,

[09:14]think like,

[09:14]why am I doing this?

[09:15]Am I even having fun?

[09:16]And then the last two voicemails we have gotten have lifted my spirits.

[09:20]Spirits higher and higher.

[09:22]Just like at the end of ghostbusters two,

[09:24]where they famously have the statue of Liberty defeat the pink ooze.

[09:27]Everybody remembers that because the song is higher and higher by Jackie.

[09:30]No,

[09:32]that was the first one.

[09:33]That's the one everybody thinks of,

[09:34]but actually a better,

[09:35]I'm going to say right now,

[09:36]I think ghostbusters two is better.

[09:37]I can't even finish that sense.

[09:39]I couldn't even say it as a joke,

[09:40]as a joke.

[09:41]I couldn't say it.

[09:42]Hey,

[09:43]text it into the back line.

[09:43]802-277-BECK.

[09:45]And let us know.

[09:45]Are you a sapiosexual?

[09:46]What's a sapiosexual?

[09:50]And how smart,

[09:54]like how,

[09:55]what's the smartness cutoff?

[09:57]Is there like an IQ cutoff or a sapiosexual?

[09:59]Like,

[10:00]do you have to be able to do long division to qualify under someone's

[10:04]standard for that?

[10:05]Does someone's standard,

[10:06]like,

[10:06]is it changed?

[10:08]Like if Aaron and Rob are both sapiosexuals,

[10:10]do they have different levels of intelligence that they would require?

[10:13]What is the standard?

[10:14]I'll have,

[10:14]you know,

[10:15]Russell,

[10:15]I went,

[10:15]I once was in a girl's place and I was in her bedroom and things were

[10:19]getting pretty hot.

[10:20]Hot and heavy.

[10:20]I don't want to go into details,

[10:22]but it was pretty sweet.

[10:22]And as we got into her bed,

[10:24]silk sheets,

[10:25]just wonderful,

[10:26]just a lovely time.

[10:27]We got into her bed and she hands me the triangle with one golf tee

[10:30]missing.

[10:31]Okay.

[10:32]And I was like,

[10:33]fuck.

[10:34]What?

[10:35]You know,

[10:36]that game that you had to solve or like you just had to,

[10:38]I spent so many hours of my life trying to figure out how to do that

[10:41]triangle thing.

[10:42]Kids these days,

[10:43]they just look it up on Tik TOK.

[10:44]Maybe every week.

[10:44]I mean,

[10:45]a Rubik's cube would be the ultimate test.

[10:46]I've still,

[10:46]have you guys ever solved a Rubik's cube?

[10:48]I have no way.

[10:49]No,

[10:49]no,

[10:50]no.

[10:50]Aaron,

[10:50]Aaron from Minneapolis can do it.

[10:53]No way.

[10:54]We had it.

[10:55]No,

[10:55]I cannot.

[10:56]So it's pretty easy.

[10:57]I mean,

[10:57]it's just learning a bunch of steps.

[10:59]Oh man,

[11:00]putting down Aaron for learning the Rubik's cube.

[11:02]Thanks for listening.

[11:04]Now I got to see what you've accomplished in your life.

[11:06]All right,

[11:06]here,

[11:06]let's break this down real quick,

[11:08]Russell,

[11:08]right?

[11:08]Sapio sexual,

[11:09]finding intelligence,

[11:11]sexually attractive or rousing.

[11:12]So what is intelligence,

[11:13]right?

[11:14]It's not just being smarter and IQ.

[11:16]Intelligence is the ability to acquire and apply.

[11:19]Knowledge and skills.

[11:20]So I'm thinking this,

[11:22]you know,

[11:22]you can be street smart.

[11:23]Yes,

[11:24]you can be book smart.

[11:25]You can,

[11:26]you know,

[11:26]be different standards,

[11:27]Delaware statutory,

[11:29]you know,

[11:30]filing smart things like,

[11:31]you know,

[11:31]there's all sorts of things,

[11:33]right?

[11:33]So I think,

[11:34]I think it's a very,

[11:35]uh,

[11:36]wide scale on what you can find,

[11:38]you know,

[11:39]the,

[11:39]and a person's intelligence.

[11:41]So I think,

[11:41]I mean,

[11:41]again,

[11:42]I noticed you didn't say a way I was smart.

[11:44]So I'd like you to now find a way that I'm smart and just bring that up on the podcast

[11:48]right now.

[11:48]If you can,

[11:49]uh,

[11:49]quickly,

[11:49]you know,

[11:50]convert kilograms to pounds,

[11:52]you know,

[11:53]because maybe you use them all the time,

[11:54]you know,

[11:55]things like that.

[11:55]If you can kind of float between those things pretty quick.

[11:58]How is Aaron smart?

[12:00]Well,

[12:01]if you guys have to ask,

[12:03]then you're not even,

[12:04]you know,

[12:04]Aaron's smart on so many different levels.

[12:06]Like where do we begin?

[12:07]Right.

[12:08]Musically,

[12:09]middle management wise,

[12:11]managing people.

[12:12]Cause he's manages 40 people.

[12:14]How many people is too many people to manage Rosie?

[12:17]More than two.

[12:19]I don't know.

[12:21]I actually like there's comfort in 13 because now I like,

[12:24]I don't do anything,

[12:24]but talk to these people.

[12:25]Like I don't lift your finger to do anything else.

[12:27]Nope.

[12:28]I do not.

[12:29]I approve.

[12:30]You had no expectation to produce anything.

[12:32]Do you?

[12:32]No,

[12:32]I do not.

[12:33]Do you have to like make sure their TPS reports are using the correct forms and

[12:37]things like that?

[12:38]Got to make sure they've got access to stuff.

[12:40]Do you ever think about if you assembled a football team,

[12:42]what position each person would be?

[12:43]And then who would be the two backups?

[12:45]And you'd be the coach.

[12:45]You'd have a Bear Bryant hat on.

[12:47]Yeah.

[12:47]All the time.

[12:48]I think about it all the time.

[12:49]I love it.

[12:49]I love thinking about that kind of stuff.

[12:50]Are you finding out things about now that you're the man,

[12:53]are you finding out things about people that you wish you never knew about

[12:56]them because you're their manager and they come to you with like just weird

[12:59]shit?

[12:59]No,

[13:00]I'm not getting so much of that.

[13:01]What I'm finding is that like,

[13:03]and I'm finding this coaching T-ball also like you are,

[13:07]it's,

[13:07]it's,

[13:08]I'm never not shocked at how little people actually take in of what you tell

[13:14]them.

[13:14]I just like adults are not,

[13:17]they don't give a shit what you're saying.

[13:19]You have to repeat things five times minimum for adults.

[13:22]All right,

[13:23]let's get into rolling going.

[13:24]No,

[13:26]I believe anyone who says they're a sapiosexual,

[13:29]if they have the choice of picking a 10 who is dumb as fuck or a five who is

[13:38]smart as Albert Einstein,

[13:39]every goddamn one of those sapiosexuals is picking the tan.

[13:43]The fucking tan.

[13:44]That's what I'm saying.

[13:44]Yeah.

[13:45]Yeah.

[13:45]I like to imagine a sepia sexual.

[13:49]And their kink is those photos from like Deadwood and places like that,

[13:52]where they're like,

[13:53]Oh my God.

[13:53]When you go to the county fair and you get the pictures where you're the

[13:58]outlaws and now somebody's jerking into that.

[14:01]Cause they're a sepia sexual

[14:03]wanted by me for jacking off to give me those pictures of you at the fair.

[14:09]Did you guys ever do that with your family?

[14:14]Take a picture where you guys all look like outlaws.

[14:16]No,

[14:17]I,

[14:18]I,

[14:18]I put that with the people who got the guns and roses mirrors at the county

[14:22]fair for prizes.

[14:23]I put those people in the same things.

[14:25]And I know that there's people listening right now who have done it and I'm

[14:28]not making fun of you.

[14:29]Okay.

[14:30]But send those pictures to me.

[14:32]I got,

[14:32]I've got a new kink segment.

[14:34]I want to talk to you about,

[14:35]let's get into rolling going.

[14:37]Rolling going,

[14:41]Aaron,

[14:42]how is it going with you?

[14:43]It's going great.

[14:45]I,

[14:48]I'm going to change my mind about something.

[14:50]We've maybe talked about this on the,

[14:52]on the podcast.

[14:53]I know,

[14:53]uh,

[14:54]Matt is a person who is willing to take and make phone calls.

[14:59]And I've been not great about making phone calls to people I know,

[15:04]but today happens to be,

[15:06]uh,

[15:07]the anniversary of Prince's death.

[15:08]And so I texted a friend of a mutual friend of ours because,

[15:12]uh,

[15:12]we had,

[15:12]uh,

[15:13]we had,

[15:13]we had a previous text exchange about some lines from a movie.

[15:17]And so I texted him.

[15:18]I said,

[15:18]Hey,

[15:18]it's,

[15:18]it's Prince's death birthday today.

[15:20]And I'm an homage to Prince and to the great film,

[15:23]orange County,

[15:23]for those of you who are familiar.

[15:24]And he immediately called me and I answered the phone and it was delightful.

[15:31]He and his wife were heading out to dinner.

[15:33]We talked for like four minutes at the most.

[15:35]It was wonderful.

[15:36]And so I'm,

[15:37]I'm on board with phone calls to people to catch up briefly.

[15:41]And I know I've got,

[15:42]I've got,

[15:42]I have family members listening right now who I have not called in a long time.

[15:45]And they're probably like,

[15:45]yeah,

[15:45]why don't you give me a fucking call?

[15:47]And I'm going to,

[15:48]to turn over a new leaf about it because it's wonderful.

[15:50]And you can just like,

[15:51]you can have a four minute call and then be like,

[15:53]yeah,

[15:53]it's great to hear your voice moving on with your life.

[15:55]And I phone calls.

[15:57]I'm,

[15:57]I'm really coming around that.

[15:58]It's a wonderful technology.

[15:59]Aaron,

[16:00]can I tell you one thing?

[16:00]I'm a little sad that you and I didn't have a phone call.

[16:03]Okay.

[16:04]So I'm going to do something right now with the magic of this podcast.

[16:07]This is going to be the phone call about Prince between you and I.

[16:09]Okay.

[16:10]So call it and say what you said to the guy or whatever.

[16:13]All right.

[16:13]Hey,

[16:14]Hey Rob,

[16:15]you got to pick up the phone first.

[16:17]You fucking.

[16:18]Who's calling?

[16:18]Hello.

[16:20]Who is this?

[16:21]Yeah.

[16:23]Hey Rob,

[16:24]it's me.

[16:24]I was just calling to remind you that it's,

[16:25]it's like,

[16:26]it's Prince's like death birthday.

[16:28]Oh my God.

[16:29]That's a totally normal thing to call somebody about.

[16:30]Thank you so much for calling me.

[16:31]Uh,

[16:32]I can't remember.

[16:33]Do you remember?

[16:34]I mean,

[16:35]such a great memory.

[16:36]So many great songs.

[16:37]I remember when I went to that concert and you didn't Aaron and you,

[16:39]it's one of the great regrets of your life.

[16:41]I think that's a great thing to think about.

[16:42]What did,

[16:43]I can't remember that.

[16:43]What did Prince die of?

[16:44]I can't remember what that was.

[16:46]Fentanyl?

[16:48]Or is this going to be three?

[16:49]Give me mommy's milk.

[16:50]Give me mommy's milk.

[16:51]I want mommy's milk.

[16:52]Aaron.

[16:55]Oh,

[16:56]so cool.

[16:57]He was hovering over that for like two minutes right in front of you.

[16:59]You knew what he was going to do.

[17:00]I wasn't looking.

[17:02]I was focused on Rob's face.

[17:03]He's just hovering over Vincent Price for two minutes.

[17:06]And scene.

[17:07]Our improv school is going great.

[17:09]That was better than the last few we've had.

[17:11]So that's it.

[17:12]I'm,

[17:12]I'm,

[17:12]I'm pro phone calls now.

[17:14]When I get calls though,

[17:15]sometimes it scares me.

[17:16]I worry something bad is happening.

[17:18]Me too.

[17:19]Yeah,

[17:19]me too.

[17:20]So,

[17:20]so I'm going to,

[17:21]I'm trying to change that,

[17:22]that neural pathway.

[17:23]Oh,

[17:24]you think Prince nine is good.

[17:25]Wow.

[17:27]That's weird,

[17:27]Aaron,

[17:27]but it was a text message and then a phone call in response to the text

[17:32]message.

[17:32]It wasn't a phone call out of the blue,

[17:35]the phone call out of the blue.

[17:36]If,

[17:36]if,

[17:36]if I just got a call from Rob,

[17:37]it would scare me.

[17:38]I would be worried.

[17:39]Something,

[17:39]something bad has happened.

[17:41]You'd be like,

[17:41]maybe I put it to the voicemail because I don't want it to ruin my day.

[17:45]I'm stuck in this hole.

[17:48]I'm stuck in this hole in the gas station.

[17:48]Do not ask me any questions about it.

[17:50]The password for Beck did it better is one,

[17:54]two,

[17:54]three,

[17:55]four.

[17:56]My car is stolen.

[17:57]My car is stolen.

[18:00]Oh no.

[18:01]So the problem is you got to just,

[18:03]you got to get good at being able to get off the phone.

[18:06]Right.

[18:06]Cause right.

[18:06]You'll answer the phone.

[18:07]Right.

[18:08]But like if somebody's calling,

[18:09]somebody's on a 20 minute drive.

[18:10]Yep.

[18:11]They,

[18:11]they could care less to get off the phone.

[18:13]They're just going to keep talking.

[18:15]No,

[18:15]you know,

[18:16]Oh geez.

[18:16]Hold on a sec.

[18:17]And,

[18:18]oh,

[18:18]you know,

[18:18]well,

[18:19]yeah,

[18:19]you know,

[18:20]yeah,

[18:20]I think we'll go to that,

[18:21]that show this weekend.

[18:22]And you know,

[18:23]I'm not sure if we'll have time,

[18:24]you know,

[18:24]they'll just ramble on for it.

[18:26]And you know that they've got nothing to do,

[18:28]right?

[18:28]You might,

[18:29]you might answer the phone just to see.

[18:31]Cause again,

[18:31]you might be worried.

[18:32]Why is somebody calling me?

[18:33]You gotta be,

[18:34]you gotta just,

[18:35]you gotta perfect the art of getting off the phone.

[18:37]Cause it is nice to talk to people,

[18:39]especially you haven't talked to him in a while.

[18:40]You gotta get off.

[18:41]Man,

[18:41]what's your go-to move to get off the phone?

[18:43]What's the go-to?

[18:44]You have to find,

[18:45]you have,

[18:45]you have to find the crack,

[18:48]right?

[18:48]In their conversation.

[18:50]And then you just can't stop talking.

[18:52]Right?

[18:52]So Rob,

[18:53]just,

[18:53]just ramble on about weightlifting.

[18:56]So the other day I went down and I was,

[18:59]I have to work on my,

[19:00]my snatch.

[19:01]Actually,

[19:01]it's not getting up quite high enough for me to snatch.

[19:03]Oh,

[19:03]that's good.

[19:04]Yeah.

[19:04]You know,

[19:04]I mean,

[19:05]that's a pretty good,

[19:06]that's a pretty good thing.

[19:07]I hope best,

[19:07]best of luck on that one.

[19:09]You know,

[19:09]Hey,

[19:09]I got to run.

[19:10]I got to get this.

[19:10]So I'll talk to you soon.

[19:13]Good luck.

[19:13]Best of luck.

[19:14]And we'll,

[19:14]we'll catch up with you on the Instagram.

[19:16]Did you say,

[19:17]did you say snatch reminds me?

[19:18]I'm late for one of my hook,

[19:19]hooking appointments.

[19:20]I got to go.

[19:21]It's just masterful.

[19:22]Yeah,

[19:23]that was.

[19:24]So you can't let them come back in.

[19:27]You have to just overpower them and then say,

[19:30]Hey,

[19:30]I got to run,

[19:31]you know,

[19:31]good to talk to you.

[19:32]We'll catch up with you soon.

[19:33]All right.

[19:33]All right.

[19:34]Take care.

[19:34]Who ends it?

[19:35]If you call and then you end a call,

[19:37]like you do an abrupt ending,

[19:39]doesn't that make you an asshole?

[19:41]No,

[19:42]everybody's not.

[19:42]There's nothing to talk about.

[19:44]Everybody's thankful.

[19:44]The call has to end at some point.

[19:46]Yeah.

[19:46]Who loses?

[19:47]Who loses in that scenario?

[19:48]Oh no.

[19:49]A short phone call.

[19:50]What a disaster said.

[19:51]Nobody ever.

[19:52]They loved.

[19:52]Everybody loves short phone calls.

[19:54]It's great.

[19:54]Everybody wins.

[19:55]Yeah.

[19:56]Not everybody.

[19:57]Well,

[19:59]how's it rolling going with Russell?

[20:01]Russell,

[20:01]are you losing anything right now?

[20:02]Rolling going.

[20:03]Things are going really well.

[20:05]I actually had a question for you.

[20:07]We've talked a lot about like bartending style,

[20:09]going to the bar,

[20:09]how you do things.

[20:10]I had a question for you guys.

[20:12]If you go to the bar,

[20:14]you sit at the bar,

[20:14]would you rather have a bartender

[20:17]that is social and fun to interact with

[20:19]or a bartender that makes better drinks?

[20:21]What's your choice?

[20:22]Better,

[20:24]better drinks,

[20:24]better drinks.

[20:25]Who would know?

[20:25]Nobody wants to talk to a bartender ever.

[20:27]Forget about it.

[20:28]So I've had this thing recently where a while back,

[20:33]the Star Tribune had an article about the best espresso martinis in

[20:37]Minneapolis.

[20:37]God,

[20:38]you're still on this shit.

[20:39]Just doing Russell fan service.

[20:42]The article after that was best bidets to buy.

[20:44]When you're drinking espresso martini after espresso martini.

[20:48]Yes.

[20:49]So one of the bars they listed is a,

[20:52]as a restaurant in downtown called FEMA.

[20:54]It's kind of a nicer restaurant.

[20:55]I think it's relatively new,

[20:57]but I,

[20:58]I went in there once with a martini drinker.

[21:00]We've sat down and we said,

[21:03]Hey,

[21:03]we came in here cause we noticed that the Star Tribune had made a note of

[21:07]it.

[21:08]And the head bartender was there.

[21:09]It was kind of quieter,

[21:10]but he came up and he started talking about how he makes them that the

[21:13]article was really cool.

[21:14]We kind of got,

[21:14]we got into this discussion,

[21:15]but he was kind of a quieter guy or anything,

[21:18]not like super outgoing,

[21:19]but he made an amazing,

[21:20]amazing espresso martini.

[21:22]It just was really good.

[21:23]Right.

[21:23]And he gave you enough information that you were still like,

[21:27]you went away happy.

[21:28]Yes.

[21:28]He gave,

[21:29]he,

[21:29]he spoke to you and everything,

[21:30]but he didn't overpower anything.

[21:32]He just served the drinks.

[21:34]He asked if you enjoyed them,

[21:35]talked a little bit about it and whatever.

[21:37]And then it was done.

[21:38]Saying less is actually more.

[21:39]And that's something I often say.

[21:41]Somebody very smart said that.

[21:44]Albert Einstein.

[21:47]So a while back then we were like,

[21:49]we got to go get these again.

[21:50]It's a,

[21:51]it's a fun spot.

[21:52]We want to drink these again.

[21:52]And we went in and this was months ago and we had a different bartender.

[21:56]This bartender was much more engaging,

[21:59]fun.

[22:00]He had like a glow in the dark bow tie,

[22:02]just a fun person and everything.

[22:04]And we said,

[22:05]oh,

[22:05]we're going to do the espresso martini.

[22:06]And he goes,

[22:07]just so you know,

[22:08]I make them my own a different way.

[22:11]Cause we kind of said,

[22:11]oh,

[22:11]we know you guys have the best ones.

[22:13]And he goes,

[22:13]I make them a different way.

[22:14]I'm just giving you a heads up.

[22:16]We're like,

[22:16]it shouldn't be allowed.

[22:16]Okay.

[22:17]Okay.

[22:17]Whatever.

[22:18]So he makes them different than the way that the star tribune has said.

[22:22]They make the best ones.

[22:24]What do you think of that?

[22:26]That what is he doing?

[22:27]What is he?

[22:28]You don't get to just go rogue.

[22:30]If it's the place's signature cocktail.

[22:31]Imagine bullshit.

[22:33]Isn't it?

[22:33]You go to McDonald's and you get tater tots.

[22:35]You'd be furious.

[22:36]I mean,

[22:37]this is you.

[22:37]When you do something the best,

[22:39]you have to keep doing it like that forever and ever.

[22:41]And that's why this podcast is not stopping until we are at 500.

[22:44]So we've been back there probably three,

[22:47]four times.

[22:47]We've probably been there four times in the last,

[22:49]I don't know,

[22:49]six months or something like that.

[22:51]And occasionally we'll walk in and we'll see which bartenders are there.

[22:56]And we're like excited for the one bartender or we're devastated for the

[23:00]other one.

[23:01]And,

[23:02]and the last time we were sitting there and we were drinking,

[23:05]we got one and the guy made him his way.

[23:07]And it's not a bad drink or anything.

[23:08]It's just not what you went,

[23:10]you go there for.

[23:11]Right.

[23:11]Yeah.

[23:12]And so at one point,

[23:13]one of the other bartenders,

[23:14]came around,

[23:15]neither of the two that have served us before.

[23:17]And she kind of,

[23:19]we go,

[23:20]Oh,

[23:20]we're going to get another espresso martini.

[23:21]And she goes,

[23:22]do you want to get them from the other guy?

[23:23]Like she knew,

[23:24]she knew what was going on.

[23:26]And we said,

[23:27]yes.

[23:28]And she's like,

[23:29]I'll go,

[23:29]I'll go talk to him.

[23:30]I'll get it.

[23:30]And so we're waiting.

[23:32]We get all excited.

[23:33]The bad bartender overpowered.

[23:36]He came back over the top again.

[23:38]And he's like,

[23:38]these are my customers.

[23:40]I'm making them my way.

[23:41]And like,

[23:41]even when we've said like,

[23:43]Oh,

[23:43]we really like yours,

[23:44]but we don't like yours.

[23:44]We like the way the other guy,

[23:45]he won't do it the other way.

[23:46]What,

[23:47]what do you think?

[23:48]That's just crap.

[23:48]Isn't it?

[23:49]Can't go back there anymore,

[23:50]man.

[23:50]That's a bummer.

[23:51]Russell.

[23:51]That's a disaster.

[23:52]I,

[23:52]and how many,

[23:54]there's only one FEMA in Minneapolis,

[23:55]right?

[23:56]Yes.

[23:56]I'm like seventh and Hennepin.

[23:58]Yes.

[23:59]Kind of right around the corner.

[24:00]Right.

[24:00]F H I M a.

[24:01]Yeah.

[24:02]You got it.

[24:02]Oh yeah.

[24:03]So downtown right off.

[24:05]And so the,

[24:06]the bartender is very engaging.

[24:07]He's very fun,

[24:08]but he's like gone out of his way to not make a drink a certain way that

[24:13]see,

[24:14]I would,

[24:14]want it ordered.

[24:15]Can't you like tell this dude finally,

[24:18]like,

[24:18]is he a nice guy or is he kind of a D bag?

[24:20]I got to watch what I say.

[24:22]He is a nice guy,

[24:25]but I also think like,

[24:27]Hey,

[24:27]if you take pride in like your work or something and people are asking you to

[24:31]do it differently,

[24:32]some people might not enjoy that.

[24:34]I don't know.

[24:34]Very similar,

[24:35]but very different,

[24:37]but kind of similar.

[24:38]Like my,

[24:38]I think you guys know my barber has been in jail for the last two years.

[24:43]My barber for 10 years.

[24:44]Have we talked about that?

[24:44]Have we talked about this?

[24:45]And so I had to find a new barber.

[24:46]No,

[24:47]we have not talked about this.

[24:48]I don't think we knew that your barber was in jail.

[24:49]No,

[24:49]we've not discussed.

[24:49]Is this the guy you used to see?

[24:50]Is this the guy you used to see down in Seville?

[24:52]What?

[24:54]That's a sapiosexual bit.

[24:56]It is?

[24:58]Barber.

[24:59]There's something there that I don't remember.

[25:01]The barber of Seville?

[25:02]Yeah.

[25:03]You guys,

[25:05]I am not fucking any of you.

[25:06]Right.

[25:08]So I've talked about,

[25:09]right?

[25:09]Like go to a barber,

[25:10]go to like somebody who actually is a barber,

[25:14]not like some chick who just got there.

[25:17]You know,

[25:17]man,

[25:18]we know what a barber is.

[25:19]Tell us why he's in jail.

[25:21]That is what we're waiting for.

[25:22]Why is he in jail?

[25:23]He got like a,

[25:25]you know,

[25:25]a couple of D dubs or something.

[25:27]He finally just,

[25:28]you know,

[25:28]had enough time to go to jail.

[25:30]I think he's finally,

[25:30]I think he got out.

[25:31]He didn't like take a straight racer to someone or anything.

[25:32]Yeah.

[25:32]But like,

[25:33]so I was going to Dick's barber in Richfield where Dick was there.

[25:36]Dick has been there since 1962.

[25:38]And I had like his last five years and a guy bought it from him.

[25:42]This is the guy.

[25:43]He had it for like 10 years.

[25:44]He's the one who went to jail.

[25:45]So then all of a sudden,

[25:45]no barber.

[25:46]I got to find a new barber.

[25:47]Right.

[25:48]And so the next logical shop around here is this place called Dick's barber in Edina.

[25:54]Not completely set.

[25:55]Dick's sports barber in Edina.

[25:56]44th in France.

[25:58]If you know where that is,

[25:59]Russell,

[25:59]I mean,

[26:00]it's kind of down from 50th in France.

[26:02]A little bit bougie to be going to a barber.

[26:03]It is pretty bougie.

[26:05]There's like a snap fitness.

[26:06]And yeah.

[26:07]Are they serving you like champagne while you're getting your hair cut there,

[26:09]Matt?

[26:09]And so,

[26:10]no,

[26:10]this place has been there since the 60s,

[26:12]right?

[26:12]But they've got eight barbers.

[26:14]There are eight barbers.

[26:16]So I start with the oldest guy.

[26:17]This guy,

[26:18]he is like,

[26:20]you're going to 10 minute haircut,

[26:21]no matter what.

[26:22]In and out,

[26:22]ship,

[26:22]ship,

[26:23]boom,

[26:23]boom,

[26:24]go.

[26:24]Right.

[26:24]So I got it.

[26:25]I got it twice.

[26:26]Not my kind of style.

[26:27]So then I went to the other guy,

[26:28]next oldest one.

[26:29]He took 40 minutes.

[26:31]Not my style.

[26:32]Went to the new guy.

[26:33]So I've,

[26:33]I've worked my way through like seven of the eight barbers.

[26:36]And I find on the seventh one,

[26:38]I finally found my guy,

[26:39]Brooklyn.

[26:39]Great guy.

[26:40]Talks about fishing all the time.

[26:41]Right.

[26:42]But,

[26:43]you know,

[26:43]it's kind of,

[26:44]it's very similar,

[26:44]right?

[26:44]So I go in and now I see all these guys who cut my hair and whether they remember me or

[26:48]not,

[26:48]but I walk right by him because I've gotten like two haircuts by each of them,

[26:52]but I want my fucking haircut.

[26:55]How are my fucking haircut?

[26:56]Right.

[26:56]And so you should get your fucking espresso martini,

[26:59]how you want your fucking espresso martini.

[27:01]Right.

[27:02]And so you should have full right to say like,

[27:04]Hey,

[27:04]you know,

[27:05]Hey bud,

[27:06]you know,

[27:06]great,

[27:06]great talking to you,

[27:07]but I want that guy to make my martini.

[27:10]Right.

[27:10]And he shouldn't be,

[27:12]but heard about it.

[27:14]But then isn't it?

[27:15]What?

[27:15]It's kind of tough to sit at the bar after you do that though,

[27:18]isn't it?

[27:19]Well,

[27:19]I mean,

[27:20]but then it isn't as soon as you do,

[27:22]as soon as you just throw that out there,

[27:23]right?

[27:23]Like you got to take that step to just say,

[27:25]Hey,

[27:26]I'm going to get my espresso martini from that guy.

[27:28]I really like you make yours different.

[27:30]Great.

[27:30]I really like how he makes his,

[27:32]he makes his little different than you.

[27:33]I like his,

[27:34]I'm going to get it.

[27:34]I'm paying $12 or whatever it is for this thing.

[27:37]Probably more than that.

[27:38]You know,

[27:39]I'm going to get it from the guy that I want to get it from.

[27:41]I don't know,

[27:42]man.

[27:42]This is a tour de force.

[27:43]That was your smart comment of the week.

[27:45]Okay.

[27:47]That was Matt's smart comment of the week.

[27:49]Ooh,

[27:50]that's a smart comment.

[27:51]Once you realize,

[27:51]you know,

[27:52]like again,

[27:52]you and I,

[27:53]Russ,

[27:53]we're both,

[27:53]we're both,

[27:54]what are we?

[27:54]Walkers,

[27:55]not talkers kind of a thing.

[27:56]You know,

[27:57]we'll walk out,

[27:58]but there's a few things like for me,

[28:01]it's a haircut,

[28:01]you know?

[28:02]And if it's,

[28:03]if it's an espresso martini for you,

[28:05]right?

[28:05]Like draw a couple lines in the sand and just see what happens.

[28:07]I appreciate that,

[28:08]Matt.

[28:08]Cause when you say like,

[28:09]I'm definitely a walker when it comes to this stuff,

[28:12]like I'm not one to say like,

[28:13]I don't want your drink to a bartender.

[28:15]And I will say when I go out with a martini fan at times,

[28:20]if we have a couple of them,

[28:21]people,

[28:22]including myself tend to get louder,

[28:24]more boisterous about what they're looking for or whatever.

[28:28]And sometimes you can tell,

[28:29]like we're over at the corner of the bar and it's,

[28:32]the conversation is rising about what the fuck is this guy doing?

[28:36]Why didn't the other guy bring us the espresso martini?

[28:39]And you kind of got to watch it.

[28:41]Cause it's like,

[28:41]I,

[28:42]I don't want to be that person at the bar.

[28:43]And then they,

[28:44]and then you shush them cause they're talking so loudly and they get mad at

[28:46]you and you say,

[28:47]ah,

[28:47]we went to Hamilton last week.

[28:49]You can't be mad at me about this.

[28:50]Well,

[28:51]like that bartender,

[28:52]the bartender cannot be,

[28:54]if you,

[28:54]especially if you're just a nice person,

[28:56]right?

[28:56]And you're a nice person,

[28:57]Russell,

[28:57]right?

[28:57]So if you're just like,

[28:59]Hey,

[28:59]I like how he makes his espresso martinis.

[29:01]I'm going to,

[29:01]I'm going to,

[29:02]I'm going to get it from him.

[29:03]Like,

[29:03]what can he say?

[29:04]You know,

[29:04]if you're being nice about it.

[29:05]What do you think Rob Aaron?

[29:06]Report back next week.

[29:08]I would never in a million years do it.

[29:09]Matt's right.

[29:10]But I would never do it ever.

[29:11]I would sit there and the guy would be like,

[29:12]I pissed in this glass and I throw it on your date's face.

[29:15]I'd be like,

[29:15]yeah,

[29:15]I guess that's our future.

[29:16]Now this is what we do.

[29:17]I am a coward.

[29:18]Russell.

[29:19]I would order something different if it were.

[29:21]Yeah.

[29:21]I mean,

[29:21]and we do that.

[29:22]Like,

[29:22]like we,

[29:23]you know,

[29:23]there's one place where we go where it's like,

[29:25]Oh,

[29:25]well,

[29:25]if Julia's working,

[29:26]we'll get into grony.

[29:27]If not,

[29:27]we'll get something else.

[29:28]Like,

[29:28]yeah,

[29:29]I would,

[29:29]I would not.

[29:30]Matt,

[29:31]I love your advice.

[29:38]You have tried to get this past us and don't think that this guy who is very smart.

[29:44]Okay.

[29:45]And loves dating smart people figured out something.

[29:47]You don't drink coffee,

[29:49]Russell.

[29:50]You are a noted non-coffee drinker yet.

[29:53]You are out hammering espresso martini after espresso martini.

[29:58]Russell,

[29:59]this does not compute.

[30:01]Okay.

[30:02]I chat.

[30:03]I typed this in the chat GBT and it just said WTF.

[30:06]Russell,

[30:06]explain yourself.

[30:07]You know what?

[30:08]I think some people,

[30:09]I'm not a coffee drinker,

[30:11]but espresso martinis.

[30:12]If some people add a little bit of sweetness to it,

[30:15]I really enjoy it.

[30:16]And I think that's what the one guy does.

[30:18]I don't know if it's Irish cream or whatever he adds in it.

[30:20]That adds a little sweetness to it.

[30:22]That.

[30:23]So I know people that are coffee drinkers and they like heavier espresso type flavor drinks,

[30:28]right?

[30:29]Like they want to make sure it's got to be real espresso.

[30:31]It's got to be heavy on that.

[30:32]I like the sweeter one,

[30:34]but that's why the guy,

[30:35]the other guy makes it.

[30:36]He doesn't make it the way I want it made.

[30:37]Well,

[30:38]like I went to Edo Russell.

[30:40]Have you been to Edo before?

[30:41]It's on Washington and,

[30:43]uh,

[30:45]what is the street?

[30:46]Charm.

[30:47]Charm is at home with their partner opening a triple a map right now.

[30:50]I'm being like,

[30:50]I love this shit.

[30:51]Matt,

[30:51]can you give us a zip code too while we're at it?

[30:53]Jesus Christ.

[30:54]Five,

[30:55]five,

[30:55]one.

[30:56]Okay.

[30:57]I wasn't going to play it again,

[30:58]but you're making it.

[30:59]Five,

[30:59]five,

[30:59]four,

[30:59]one,

[30:59]five.

[31:00]It's getting close.

[31:00]Like it's right across from the,

[31:02]from the depot.

[31:02]Okay.

[31:03]2.7 miles is the crow flies.

[31:05]I believe.

[31:05]So it's this fancy,

[31:06]it's a fancy,

[31:07]great place,

[31:08]they make pizzas.

[31:09]And so I'm like,

[31:10]Oh,

[31:10]I've got to try the pizza.

[31:11]It was horrible.

[31:13]I mean,

[31:13]I ate it.

[31:14]Right.

[31:14]But like I,

[31:15]it compared to everything else compared to Lola compared to,

[31:18]you know,

[31:19]any,

[31:19]everything else.

[31:20]It was just not a good pizza.

[31:22]Right.

[31:22]Screw that.

[31:22]And I cannot wait until I have enough money where I can have four bites of

[31:26]that thing and then just order something else and not throw it away.

[31:29]I can save it for lunch the next day.

[31:30]But like,

[31:31]if you're out for dinner,

[31:31]you want to have something that tastes good.

[31:33]Right.

[31:34]And I think it's the same exact thing.

[31:35]I love this math.

[31:36]Matt is called,

[31:38]Matt is cultivating his love to go out guy every night.

[31:41]This is great.

[31:42]We're getting closer and closer to the man eating out every day.

[31:44]But I will save it for lunch.

[31:46]But I've gotten to the point too,

[31:47]right?

[31:47]Like I've gotten to the point where I,

[31:48]for breakfast,

[31:49]I'm eating like nothing,

[31:50]right?

[31:51]Like I'll have like a bar knowing that I'm going out to dinner tonight.

[31:53]And then at lunch,

[31:54]I've got like just this nice light,

[31:56]completely plain sandwich,

[31:58]or maybe not even a sandwich,

[31:59]right?

[31:59]Knowing I'm going to go out and have a effing pizza.

[32:01]Right.

[32:02]And so you build that whole thing up and then you go have pizza and it's

[32:07]horrible.

[32:07]And you're like,

[32:07]God,

[32:08]damn it.

[32:08]You know,

[32:08]like,

[32:09]come on.

[32:09]So I don't know.

[32:10]I,

[32:10]I,

[32:11]I am very sensitive to your,

[32:14]your issue here,

[32:15]Russell.

[32:15]And I think you should at least just try to be nice to the guy once and

[32:18]say,

[32:18]Hey,

[32:19]you know,

[32:19]I want to try that guys.

[32:20]Cause he's a little,

[32:21]cause if you tell him this is a little sweeter,

[32:23]he's going to know exactly what you're talking about and he'll get it.

[32:26]I think what has happened though,

[32:27]is his,

[32:28]he's come over the top on us at before.

[32:30]Like we've kind of mentioned the first time,

[32:32]like,

[32:32]Oh,

[32:33]could we have it made that way?

[32:35]And he was like,

[32:35]why make them this way?

[32:37]And he kind of just,

[32:37]smacked us down.

[32:39]Does that make sense?

[32:40]Yeah.

[32:40]You gotta,

[32:40]you gotta end that phone call though.

[32:42]You gotta just keep talking.

[32:43]Don't give him a crack.

[32:44]And then start talking a little louder and a little louder and a little

[32:46]louder and don't give him a crack.

[32:47]Hey Matt,

[32:48]Matt,

[32:48]I gotta get,

[32:49]end this.

[32:49]Just keep going.

[32:50]Just don't let it go.

[32:51]Don't let that person talk.

[32:52]Rolling going,

[32:53]Matt.

[32:54]How's it going with you?

[32:55]I ended that rolling going.

[32:57]How's it going with you?

[32:58]You ended it really,

[32:59]really well.

[33:00]I forgot last week.

[33:02]I,

[33:02]I've been trying to figure out like kind of a new song,

[33:05]new group to me,

[33:07]more than anything over the next that,

[33:10]you know,

[33:10]that I've heard during the week.

[33:11]So I've got two of them this week.

[33:13]Two.

[33:13]The first one.

[33:15]Yeah.

[33:16]The first one's a song called heavy bells by a group called J Roddy

[33:19]Walston and the business,

[33:21]which I think is a phenomenal name for a band.

[33:24]I love it.

[33:24]Oh,

[33:24]this video rocks too.

[33:25]Look at these.

[33:26]Any,

[33:26]any person name with the,

[33:28]the someone after is the group is great.

[33:31]Right.

[33:31]So watch these guys.

[33:32]Oh,

[33:33]here we go.

[33:34]Like if our podcast was called Robin,

[33:36]the Oli's,

[33:36]it would be a great podcast.

[33:37]It's true.

[33:38]Actually,

[33:38]this,

[33:39]this band is very pixie ish,

[33:42]if you will.

[33:42]Like there's a bunch,

[33:43]there's a few songs on this pixie album that we're listening to.

[33:46]Yeah.

[33:46]I would sound kind of like this band,

[33:48]but these guys,

[33:50]I was,

[33:50]I was hard.

[33:51]I thought they were a new band.

[33:52]You know,

[33:52]I heard him on 89 three,

[33:53]the current,

[33:54]and I heard him.

[33:55]So I'm like,

[33:55]Oh yes,

[33:56]this is going to be great.

[33:56]This is exactly what I want to hear.

[33:58]Well,

[33:59]they were like a early mid two thousands.

[34:01]They broke up in 2019 or something like that.

[34:04]So they're no longer around.

[34:05]So I can't see him live.

[34:06]So it's too bad.

[34:07]Next band.

[34:08]I,

[34:09]I,

[34:09]I texted.

[34:10]I got a sneak preview of this thing.

[34:12]Holy shit.

[34:13]I said,

[34:13]if you want to,

[34:14]if you want to go for a ride,

[34:15]Rosie,

[34:16]listen to the song.

[34:16]I think it's like 13,

[34:17]18 minutes long.

[34:19]Yeah.

[34:19]You know,

[34:20]this song,

[34:21]this is King Gizzard and the lizard wizard.

[34:23]Again,

[34:24]another great name.

[34:25]Awesome name for a band,

[34:27]but they're Australian.

[34:28]They're in the psychedelic rock,

[34:30]kind of a jam bandy type thing.

[34:32]But listen,

[34:33]one of their band members,

[34:34]that guy named geezer from last week.

[34:36]I don't know.

[34:37]I don't think he's your butler.

[34:38]But like this thing is an 18 minute song

[34:43]and it is a wild ride.

[34:46]I cannot listen to it enough.

[34:47]And so I,

[34:49]everybody should go out and listen to King wizard,

[34:51]King Gizzard and the lizard wizard.

[34:53]They're,

[34:54]they're kind of all over the place as a band.

[34:55]They've got some really soft,

[34:56]they kind of remind me of Pearl Jam a little bit.

[34:58]They got some really soft songs

[34:59]and they get into these really hard rock songs.

[35:01]And so those are my two new bands to me.

[35:04]Anyways,

[35:05]for the week,

[35:05]King Gizzard,

[35:07]King Gizzard and the Lizard Wizard

[35:08]and then J.

[35:08]Roddy Walston and the Business.

[35:10]So that's my recommendations.

[35:12]Can't go wrong with names like that.

[35:14]I have been,

[35:16]you know,

[35:17]I ran a marathon last year,

[35:19]kind of got hurt to my,

[35:20]my knee and my calf.

[35:22]You know,

[35:22]I think I overran a little bit.

[35:24]And so this year has been the year of taking classes for me.

[35:28]So I'm a member of Lifetime.

[35:30]Yep.

[35:30]And I've started taking all sorts of classes,

[35:32]right?

[35:32]I got a kettlebell class.

[35:33]I've got a,

[35:34]I've got a warrior sculpt class.

[35:37]I've been doing yoga once a week with an Oli,

[35:39]a Kari,

[35:40]former basketball and a softball player from St.

[35:45]Olaf.

[35:45]She's,

[35:45]she's my yoga instructor.

[35:47]Great person,

[35:48]but I've gotten really into this podcast.

[35:51]I did not.

[35:52]I don't tell anybody about the podcast.

[35:54]Nobody.

[35:56]It's really good.

[35:57]Nobody whatsoever.

[35:58]That's kind of disappointing.

[36:00]Just,

[36:00]just,

[36:01]yeah.

[36:01]Just imagine going up to somebody and saying,

[36:03]Hey,

[36:03]listen to my podcast.

[36:04]It's really good.

[36:05]And try not to laugh.

[36:05]Like I couldn't even say it seriously.

[36:06]They're like,

[36:07]Hey,

[36:07]it's really good.

[36:08]You can't do it with your downward dog.

[36:10]I've got one motivate twice,

[36:14]maybe even three times a week.

[36:15]I take something called amp cycle,

[36:17]which is essentially a spin class to like really,

[36:20]it's like dance music,

[36:22]right?

[36:22]And these teachers and it's all dance stuff.

[36:25]It's your up and down your left and right,

[36:27]you know,

[36:27]and you're two up,

[36:28]two down,

[36:29]you know,

[36:29]square all this stuff.

[36:30]And essentially it's a dance class on a,

[36:32]on a bike.

[36:33]And my motivation guys is that one day,

[36:36]one day,

[36:37]all,

[36:38]all of us on the,

[36:39]on the text chain,

[36:40]all the oldies,

[36:40]everybody is,

[36:41]we're going to have a big dance party again sometime.

[36:43]And every time the thing that gets me from like here,

[36:47]you know,

[36:48]it takes me from a 10 to an 11 is,

[36:50]it gets me really hitting on all those dance moves is the thought that one

[36:54]day we're all going to be on the dance floor again.

[36:56]And it's going to be for a very special occasion.

[36:59]And so I'm just,

[37:00]I'm getting prepared for it.

[37:01]I'm getting prepared for that.

[37:03]We should all be getting prepared for that.

[37:04]We should all be thinking about,

[37:06]the type of occasion where that could happen.

[37:09]I know we can get it.

[37:10]Yeah.

[37:10]We should all be working on this.

[37:12]And so I've been working on my moves and I,

[37:14]and I'm,

[37:15]and I'm getting ready.

[37:15]I mean,

[37:16]there's some,

[37:16]we've got some pretty good dancers.

[37:17]It's a weird man because I've been,

[37:19]I was working on my dance moves.

[37:20]I don't know,

[37:21]six to nine months ago because I was convinced it was going to happen over

[37:24]last summer.

[37:25]You did.

[37:26]Yeah,

[37:26]I really was,

[37:27]but

[37:28]it was still more time to perfect them.

[37:31]My kids,

[37:31]I'm sure you're the only one.

[37:33]My kids were like,

[37:33]Oh,

[37:33]you're talking about how fun that is.

[37:34]It hasn't happened yet,

[37:35]Papa.

[37:35]And I'm like,

[37:36]I don't know.

[37:37]I mean,

[37:37]I think,

[37:37]I think we need to maybe on the text chain,

[37:40]figure out how we can all get,

[37:42]maybe it's going to a cabin.

[37:43]I don't know.

[37:44]It doesn't really sound all that exciting,

[37:45]you know,

[37:46]just having a dance.

[37:47]It must be something we can do.

[37:47]We got to figure out some way to do it.

[37:49]Who will be the hero?

[37:50]Who will save us?

[37:52]Who will save us?

[37:53]Who's going to save us?

[37:54]Who's going to bring us all together?

[37:55]To have an event to bring us all together.

[37:57]So we can have that epic party,

[37:58]dance party.

[38:00]Everybody could show off.

[38:00]I mean,

[38:01]cause you know,

[38:01]we've got some pretty good dancers in our group.

[38:04]And we all get to sit in the limo.

[38:06]And it's not a big deal.

[38:07]And it's actually not cool.

[38:08]If we do a joke.

[38:09]Oh, there's going to be a limo at this party?

[38:10]Okay.

[38:10]Yeah.

[38:11]You know,

[38:11]like I like this.

[38:12]I like it.

[38:12]There's going to be a limo.

[38:13]And we all get to sit in the back this time.

[38:15]Cause we're older and we can actually afford bigger limos now.

[38:17]Oh God.

[38:18]That's the other thing.

[38:19]Remember all those,

[38:20]all the air conditioning,

[38:21]all the way through the whole limo.

[38:22]If you think of typical,

[38:23]typical times we do that,

[38:25]we're,

[38:25]we're at weddings,

[38:26]you know,

[38:26]back in the day and everybody.

[38:27]Oh,

[38:28]that's a great idea.

[38:28]Yeah.

[38:29]God,

[38:30]that's pretty good.

[38:31]So,

[38:36]would you go,

[38:37]would you go to that wedding dance,

[38:39]Matt?

[38:39]If Rob invited you,

[38:40]if I got invited,

[38:41]you know what?

[38:42]I think I went to 42 weddings in three years.

[38:45]And I have,

[38:46]I've been to like one every three years now over the last,

[38:49]you know,

[38:49]kind of a deal.

[38:50]I'd go to,

[38:51]if Rob was married to Sexton,

[38:52]hell yeah,

[38:52]I'd be at that wedding.

[38:53]I'd go to any wedding these days.

[38:55]If I got invited,

[38:55]I'm going to put the intercom one on there.

[38:57]I'm going to put a bunch of reverb on this.

[39:00]So it sounds like it's a wedding announcer.

[39:01]Everybody,

[39:02]please welcome Rob and Roberta.

[39:05]Out for their first dance.

[39:06]I don't know.

[39:06]I don't know.

[39:06]I don't know.

[39:06]I don't know.

[39:06]I don't know.

[39:06]I don't know.

[39:06]I don't know.

[39:06]I don't know.

[39:06]I don't know.

[39:06]I don't know.

[39:06]I don't know.

[39:06]I don't know.

[39:06]I don't know.

[39:06]I don't know.

[39:06]I don't know.

[39:06]I don't know.

[39:07]I don't know.

[39:07]I don't know.

[39:07]I don't know.

[39:07]I don't know.

[39:07]I don't know.

[39:07]I don't know.

[39:07]I don't know.

[39:07]I don't know.

[39:08]I don't know.

[39:08]He's playing his own instrument again.

[39:16]I'll be stroking.

[39:18]He's playing all the instruments.

[39:19]That's what I've been doing.

[39:21]I'll be stroking.

[39:21]I'll be stroking.

[39:22]Hey,

[39:24]the reason I have to dance with her in an office chair is that she weighs almost 350

[39:28]pounds.

[39:28]Now,

[39:28]you might wonder,

[39:30]how do all of us know that sex dolls are extremely heavy?

[39:33]That's a weird thing to answer,

[39:36]isn't it?

[39:36]My real doll is very heavy.

[39:39]That's my favorite part.

[39:40]When you watch like those HBO shows of those guys were like fucking the real dolls.

[39:43]They were always so heavy.

[39:45]They would show the guys.

[39:46]What the fuck are you talking about?

[39:48]Listen,

[39:49]there's a show on HBO called Real Sex and they would always show like people dressed up as

[39:53]horses and like,

[39:54]it was like nudity,

[39:55]but they were like weird nudes.

[39:56]So it was like,

[39:57]it was like a challenge mode.

[39:59]It was kind of like,

[39:59]this is an old person nudist society,

[40:03]but I guess I could jerk it to this.

[40:04]And one of them was,

[40:07]and one of them was,

[40:08]they showed the people that had sex dolls and they were like,

[40:11]talk about their sex dolls.

[40:12]And it was like,

[40:13]you know,

[40:13]there was like relationships and it was sweet.

[40:15]And then they would have to move these things and they have to like put a full grab on them.

[40:19]And then they go,

[40:20]they have to lift them because they're so heavy.

[40:23]That's why they're always like,

[40:24]you don't,

[40:24]you never see him like moving them around.

[40:26]Rob,

[40:27]is this your work computer again?

[40:28]Are you Googling this?

[40:29]How much does this real sex doll weigh?

[40:31]Okay.

[40:32]How much is a real doll weigh?

[40:33]Let's look.

[40:33]Oh God.

[40:34]Now we're on the dog.

[40:35]Let's see.

[40:36]They range from 90 pounds to 120 pounds.

[40:39]Oh,

[40:39]geez.

[40:40]Guess what?

[40:41]120 pounds.

[40:42]Too much for me.

[40:43]Like I'm dead weight.

[40:44]101 pounds of fun.

[40:46]You have misread about Rebecca.

[40:48]She's a body four,

[40:49]which is the lightest,

[40:50]not the lightest.

[40:51]I see.

[40:51]You may be thinking.

[40:52]All right.

[40:54]Hey Rob,

[40:54]could you convert that to kilograms for me,

[40:56]please?

[40:56]We're looking at what Rebecca real doll looks like right now.

[40:59]Okay.

[41:00]I feel dirty.

[41:00]Just back up for my computer.

[41:02]And I feel,

[41:02]are you kink shaming right now?

[41:04]Is that what you're doing?

[41:05]No,

[41:05]I would never.

[41:06]Nope.

[41:07]I would never look pretty real.

[41:08]Well,

[41:10]the name of it is real.

[41:12]The name of it is real doll.

[41:13]We got Rob.

[41:14]Wow.

[41:15]This is X out.

[41:16]We're done.

[41:16]We're done with this.

[41:18]This is the Rebecca.

[41:19]They haven't even come out with 2.0 yet.

[41:21]Rob.

[41:21]We're done.

[41:24]We're done.

[41:24]Save bookmark.

[41:26]Rob,

[41:27]roll it.

[41:27]Go.

[41:27]And I was going with you.

[41:28]Listen,

[41:30]I get it.

[41:32]I get it.

[41:33]First time we ever had to scold Rob and tell him no more.

[41:35]I think it's the first time in like 200 episodes.

[41:38]If Rob and Roberta,

[41:42]the sex doll did have like a wedding album of all their photos.

[41:46]Would some of those photos been in the album or no?

[41:48]Oh yeah.

[41:49]Oh yeah.

[41:50]Yeah.

[41:50]The boudoir shots of your bride,

[41:52]your beautiful bride.

[41:54]Guys,

[41:54]I'm telling you family be in like family pictures for that one.

[41:56]Robert.

[41:57]No.

[41:57]Yeah.

[41:57]Or are you with the bride or the groom?

[41:59]It's a sex doll getting wheeled down.

[42:04]There's like 180 people on one side of the church and the other side is just fucking empty.

[42:11]Yeah.

[42:11]So there were a couple of recycle bins from out there.

[42:14]The woman from mannequin comes in and goes,

[42:17]I don't know where to sit.

[42:18]Depends.

[42:19]Mannequin too.

[42:23]On the move.

[42:24]Listen,

[42:25]I sit down,

[42:26]my calendar pops up Russell and all of a sudden I notice the date.

[42:30]April 20.

[42:33]Well,

[42:33]I won't say the date,

[42:34]but it's April.

[42:34]I'm just going to tell you guys April.

[42:36]Okay.

[42:37]That is the Thursday before this episode comes out.

[42:41]Interesting.

[42:42]It is a birthday have her person's birthday on that day.

[42:46]Oh,

[42:47]okay.

[42:47]I happen to know that somebody who is a common birthday have her has their birthday.

[42:52]And I just want to know Russell.

[42:54]If you were with somebody who was having a birthday,

[42:55]how do you even start that plan?

[42:57]What are you thinking?

[42:58]Well,

[42:59]there's a birthday have her that I know.

[43:01]And this birthday have her tries to claim a birthday month.

[43:05]I think people who claim a birthday month are full of shit.

[43:09]That's my impression.

[43:11]What do you guys think of people who claim a birthday month for a whole month,

[43:14]a whole month?

[43:15]Yeah.

[43:15]I mean,

[43:15]so go for it.

[43:16]You only get one.

[43:17]So what is it?

[43:17]But what does a birthday month mean that you have to like,

[43:19]do you have a cake every day?

[43:21]Oh my God.

[43:22]You have a cake every day.

[43:24]I Russell's like,

[43:26]I've eaten a cake every day,

[43:27]but I was,

[43:27]she was furious because it was the bees in the fridge.

[43:30]Russell's shoulders just shrunk like four inches.

[43:32]Just say people that celebrate birthday months.

[43:36]No,

[43:36]they claim it's their birthday month at a restaurant for poor dessert.

[43:41]No,

[43:42]Russell.

[43:43]No,

[43:44]Russell.

[43:45]Hey,

[43:46]don't get a free espresso martini from that guy for our birthday.

[43:49]I don't,

[43:49]I don't think they do it all the time,

[43:51]but if it's close,

[43:52]they claim it.

[43:53]I think if it's,

[43:53]if it's close,

[43:54]if it's within a week,

[43:54]they claim that.

[43:55]What do you think of that?

[43:55]I think it's within a week.

[43:58]I think that's all right.

[43:59]I think it's probably all right.

[44:01]If you're going out to celebrate your birthday with people,

[44:04]even if it's on a different day.

[44:05]Right.

[44:05]I like that.

[44:06]Yeah.

[44:06]So,

[44:07]so do you,

[44:07]let me ask you now.

[44:08]So do you have a list?

[44:09]Do you have like a list of ideas for birthdays or how do you even go about

[44:12]planning such a big,

[44:13]because this is like,

[44:14]you're like the date master.

[44:15]I think of you as the ultimate date master.

[44:17]You're doing dates.

[44:17]You're good at dates.

[44:18]You still care about impressing people with dates.

[44:20]Okay.

[44:21]What are you doing for a birthday date?

[44:24]How do you even start that to make that decision?

[44:25]Well,

[44:26]Rob,

[44:27]sometimes it helps when a person's birthday might happen to fall on a work

[44:31]trip you're taking.

[44:32]So they can come and join you on a fun trip in a new cool city.

[44:36]That just happens to coincide with a work trip that I'm taking.

[44:40]Oh,

[44:41]wow.

[44:42]So,

[44:43]so I think celebrating someone's birthday,

[44:45]like on a trip is a fun thing,

[44:46]right?

[44:47]Yeah.

[44:47]And so this is a professional birthday celebrator.

[44:49]So you've scheduled some dinners and stuff.

[44:51]You've really put the time into planning this birthday date.

[44:54]So we put this on pause for about 15 minutes.

[44:56]We're like,

[44:57]cool.

[44:57]He's really killing you.

[44:59]Birthday dates in Pierre,

[45:02]South Dakota,

[45:03]question mark.

[45:04]You know,

[45:07]Pierre has a really nice VFW.

[45:08]It's right on the river.

[45:09]It might not be a nice right now.

[45:11]It does.

[45:11]I've been there.

[45:12]You've been to the VFW in Pierre,

[45:14]South Dakota?

[45:15]Have you ever been to a bad VFW?

[45:16]Here's my question.

[45:16]Have you ever been to a bad VFW?

[45:18]Right off 212 on the corner of 6th and 8th.

[45:20]They have it for right.

[45:21]VFW's are always fun.

[45:22]Cheap burgers,

[45:22]cheap beer.

[45:24]It might surprise you.

[45:24]You know how you really get some respect at a VFW?

[45:26]Stealing valor?

[45:28]You walk in there

[45:30]or

[45:31]have somebody wheel you in

[45:33]in your full navy whites.

[45:35]Have somebody wheel you in there?

[45:38]I don't know.

[45:39]Hey,

[45:39]if you're going to steal valor,

[45:40]steal all the valor.

[45:41]You know what I mean?

[45:42]Just get it.

[45:44]There's a loud noise.

[45:46]You stand up.

[45:46]I want to remind you guys that this is Rob's rolling going.

[45:49]Rob took his rolling going

[45:50]to grill Russell about a birthday,

[45:52]Heather's birthday.

[45:53]No,

[45:54]I'm just wondering

[45:54]because I never think in time.

[45:57]Like I have a list of gifts for people.

[45:59]That's how I keep track of what I'm going to get them

[46:01]for like Christmas

[46:01]because otherwise,

[46:02]if I think about it like before the birthday,

[46:04]before Christmas,

[46:05]I'm never going to remember.

[46:05]So I'm just wondering,

[46:06]what do you do, Aaron?

[46:07]Do you keep track of birthday stuff somehow?

[46:09]Like ideas for gifts

[46:11]or are you just in my head?

[46:12]But I should,

[46:13]I should write it down like you do.

[46:14]No,

[46:14]I never end up doing it as early as I want to,

[46:17]but I do.

[46:18]Okay.

[46:18]Eventually,

[46:18]but yeah,

[46:20]Aaron's wife is like,

[46:21]why do I have so many

[46:22]homemade coupons for stuff?

[46:23]Samurai swimming lessons.

[46:25]This doesn't make any sense.

[46:26]I don't want these.

[46:28]He gives them to me every year.

[46:29]I hate this.

[46:30]I believe,

[46:31]I believe at one point

[46:32]for a birthday gift in the past,

[46:34]I did get Alanis Morissette tickets.

[46:36]We've talked about whether concert tickets

[46:38]are a good gift or not,

[46:40]but I thought that was Christmas present.

[46:41]Wasn't that a Christmas present?

[46:43]Matt,

[46:43]that was,

[46:44]those were tickets I chose not to get

[46:46]for the boss or the chili peppers

[46:47]because they were too expensive.

[46:48]And by the way,

[46:50]it was a good decision.

[46:51]Star Tribune had an article saying,

[46:53]the red hot chili peppers sucked

[46:55]in US Bank Stadium

[46:57]because the acoustics are terrible there.

[46:59]Good decision.

[47:01]Ice cold.

[47:02]Check and check.

[47:03]Yep.

[47:03]The reporter is like,

[47:04]I saved some money.

[47:05]I got second level seats.

[47:06]Don't do it.

[47:07]You should sit on the side

[47:08]by the speakers or whatever.

[47:09]Listen,

[47:10]let's get into the album.

[47:13]Hey,

[47:13]we're talking music.

[47:14]Thank God.

[47:15]Some nice guitar work on this one.

[47:17]Wrong one.

[47:17]It might not be

[47:19]John Frusciante level,

[47:20]but it's good.

[47:20]Chili pepper is guitar.

[47:23]His favorite part of the show.

[47:25]I knew you were talking about.

[47:26]I was back.

[47:27]You mean Dave Navarro?

[47:29]He's gone for a while, right?

[47:30]No, who was the,

[47:31]didn't they have another guitarist for a while?

[47:34]Yeah, they did have Dave Navarro.

[47:35]You're right.

[47:36]Yes.

[47:36]Red Hot Minute.

[47:39]I had that album.

[47:40]All right,

[47:42]let's get into it.

[47:43]We are.

[47:43]Dave Navarro was always a weird dude.

[47:45]Like he was always on like MTV

[47:46]because like I think he was married

[47:48]to Carmen Electra.

[47:49]Yeah.

[47:49]And he was part of these bands

[47:51]that I don't think the bands

[47:52]were all that famous.

[47:53]Like if he was more famous

[47:54]for being with Carmen Electra

[47:56]than he was a guitar player, right?

[47:58]He did also host a tattoo reality show

[48:00]that was like,

[48:01]it was like top chef for tattoo artists,

[48:03]which was a terrible show,

[48:04]but I watched a lot.

[48:05]Guys,

[48:05]this is the guitarist for Jane's Addiction.

[48:07]Let's not talk slander here.

[48:08]I mean,

[48:09]we cannot mess around.

[48:10]Dave Navarro is a good guitarist.

[48:12]And they,

[48:13]they just opened up.

[48:14]Jane's Addiction just opened up

[48:16]for Smashing Pumpkins last,

[48:17]their last tour.

[48:18]Dave Navarro wasn't with the band,

[48:20]which is too bad,

[48:20]but Jane's Addiction,

[48:22]they,

[48:23]well,

[48:24]they're awesome.

[48:25]Oh no.

[48:25]Yeah.

[48:26]It's,

[48:26]I mean,

[48:26]yeah,

[48:27]they're,

[48:27]they're phenomenal.

[48:28]And probably a lot of the pixies

[48:30]coming into their stuff.

[48:31]So yeah,

[48:32]Dave Navarro,

[48:32]rock,

[48:34]rock guitar legend.

[48:36]And most podcast hosts

[48:38]would take that segue

[48:39]and effortlessly

[48:41]with no problem whatsoever,

[48:43]just start talking about the album,

[48:44]smooth,

[48:45]knowing that we were staying up late,

[48:46]knowing that we don't want to waste time.

[48:47]However,

[48:48]I'm going to go back and just say,

[48:49]if I told you Dave Navarro

[48:50]got into a cocoon

[48:51]and came out,

[48:53]and it was Guy Fieri,

[48:54]you would kind of maybe think

[48:57]that's a possibility,

[48:57]right?

[48:58]They're kind of similar vibes.

[49:01]Don't you think?

[49:02]Like Dave,

[49:02]like Guy Fieri is a similar vibe

[49:04]to Dave Navarro.

[49:04]Am I right?

[49:05]They both have kind of,

[49:06]you think of like flame shirts?

[49:07]No.

[49:09]Are you,

[49:10]are you,

[49:11]are you,

[49:11]are you sure you know

[49:12]who you're talking about?

[49:12]This is probably when I,

[49:14]you should probably Google

[49:15]Dave Navarro really quick.

[49:16]This is like when I used to get

[49:17]the baseball players,

[49:18]Troy O'Leary and Rusty Greer confused.

[49:20]Oh my God.

[49:23]Is this that bad?

[49:24]Very similar vibes.

[49:25]There's Dave Navarro.

[49:26]Okay.

[49:27]Now let's look.

[49:28]Guy Fieri.

[49:29]Huh?

[49:31]Visual joke.

[49:32]Huh?

[49:33]What the fuck?

[49:33]Go back and forth?

[49:34]Yeah,

[49:35]they're kind of close.

[49:36]Okay.

[49:37]Now,

[49:38]what if I told you that

[49:39]Dave Navarro actually was

[49:40]Jessica 1.0?

[49:41]Now,

[49:42]give me a second to Google this again.

[49:43]Don't do that.

[49:44]All right.

[49:44]I'll pull that up again.

[49:45]It's in your bookmarks.

[49:46]You're all right.

[49:47]Let's talk about the Pixies.

[49:48]Don't need to Google it.

[49:48]a great host would also,

[49:50]the great host would also

[49:51]edit the episode

[49:52]and make himself actually look

[49:53]funny and take some of that

[49:54]stuff out.

[49:55]Now,

[49:55]we are talking about

[49:58]Doolittle by the Pixies.

[50:00]I,

[50:00]I got to start by saying,

[50:01]do you guys,

[50:02]what do you guys think of the

[50:03]Pixies?

[50:03]To me,

[50:04]the Pixies were always the band.

[50:05]I don't know anything about them.

[50:06]Never listened to them,

[50:07]but they're always the band

[50:08]that when people said they

[50:09]liked them,

[50:09]I thought this person knows

[50:11]music.

[50:11]They are smart.

[50:12]Thoughts?

[50:13]I don't know the Pixies.

[50:14]I don't know Pixies at all.

[50:16]I bought their album

[50:18]Surfer Rosa because I had

[50:19]There Is My Mind on it

[50:20]because I heard that in

[50:21]Fight Club.

[50:22]You should play that real

[50:23]quick, Rob.

[50:23]Just while we're talking

[50:24]about it.

[50:24]Or Where Is My Mind.

[50:25]Yeah,

[50:26]that's,

[50:26]that's the thing.

[50:27]That's probably the only

[50:29]like real hits that they've

[50:32]got.

[50:32]But,

[50:33]you know,

[50:34]I,

[50:34]doing a lot of the reading

[50:36]of the background,

[50:36]you know,

[50:37]you always heard about

[50:37]Pavement and Pixies and

[50:39]some of these other bands.

[50:40]Talking Heads was in there

[50:41]and The Who and Who the,

[50:43]you know,

[50:44]Nirvana's and

[50:46]Red Hot Chili Peppers

[50:48]and Pearl Jams and

[50:50]Sound Gardens of the World,

[50:51]Smashing Pumpkins,

[50:51]all,

[50:52]they were,

[50:53]that's who they listened to

[50:54]while they were kind of

[50:55]coming up.

[50:56]And so,

[50:56]I knew the Pixies listened

[50:57]to them a little bit only

[50:58]because they essentially

[50:59]were like grunge before

[51:01]grunge was grunge.

[51:02]That make an alternative

[51:03]rock.

[51:04]Favorite band,

[51:04]favorite band kind of a deal.

[51:05]Yeah,

[51:06]that kind of a thing.

[51:07]So,

[51:07]that's the only reason I

[51:08]listened to them a little bit.

[51:09]Another band people link

[51:10]to the Pixies a lot is

[51:11]Nirvana.

[51:11]And a big part of it is

[51:12]the silent to loud dynamic

[51:14]we're going to hear

[51:15]throughout this album

[51:15]where they really play

[51:17]with that,

[51:17]that noise.

[51:18]Yep.

[51:19]Aaron?

[51:20]Matt said Nirvana.

[51:22]Ah,

[51:23]I was looking at the video.

[51:24]I was trying to do fading.

[51:25]I'm sorry, Aaron.

[51:25]I'm trying to produce the show.

[51:27]Okay,

[51:28]do you think he produced

[51:28]the show?

[51:29]Do you think producing the show

[51:32]is just trying to find emojis

[51:33]that would go on this sound clip?

[51:34]Matt,

[51:35]are you noticing how

[51:36]people take feedback?

[51:36]This is why I don't tell

[51:38]the bartender about

[51:39]his press merch.

[51:40]He'd be like,

[51:42]I'm sorry, Russ.

[51:43]I'm trying to serve drinks.

[51:44]Yeah.

[51:45]By the way,

[51:46]earlier,

[51:46]I cut off the song

[51:47]God Save the Queen.

[51:48]I will never do that again.

[51:49]I'm going to vow to you right now.

[51:50]We will always listen to that song

[51:51]all the way through

[51:52]when talking about America.

[51:54]So this band was formed

[51:55]by the guitarist

[51:56]Joey Santiago

[51:56]and the songwriter

[51:57]Black Francis,

[51:58]and they met in Boston

[51:59]at Massachusetts Amherst.

[52:00]They then put an ad

[52:02]in the paper and said,

[52:03]listen,

[52:03]we're looking for a bass player

[52:04]who has to like

[52:05]Peter, Paul, Mary

[52:06]and Husker Du.

[52:07]And a woman showed up.

[52:09]You know where Husker Du is from?

[52:11]That's the Minneapolis connection.

[52:12]There we go.

[52:12]Yeah.

[52:13]I've always thought

[52:14]of Pixies

[52:15]as Minneapolis-ly creative.

[52:17]The bass player,

[52:18]the one person

[52:19]showed up to that,

[52:20]one person showed up

[52:21]to that ad

[52:21]without a bass.

[52:23]Because they did not

[52:24]play the bass

[52:25]and has never played the bass,

[52:26]but they liked the guy's song.

[52:27]So they said,

[52:27]sure, you're in the band.

[52:28]This person,

[52:29]the bass player

[52:30]invited her sister,

[52:31]Kim Deal,

[52:32]invited her sister

[52:33]who was a drummer,

[52:35]but she didn't,

[52:36]she only liked Kim's songs

[52:37]and not the Pixies songs

[52:38]or not Pixies songs.

[52:39]And then she became

[52:40]the drummer of the Breeders.

[52:42]So the bass player

[52:43]of this band

[52:44]and the drummer

[52:44]of the Breeders

[52:45]are sisters,

[52:45]which is a great fact.

[52:46]Okay, you can use that

[52:47]on a first date if you want.

[52:48]The last song fact

[52:50]I used on my date

[52:51]was the one

[52:52]about the kids

[52:53]from Who's the Boss

[52:54]was the guy

[52:55]who played the flute

[52:56]in The Chronic.

[52:57]Is that true?

[53:00]It did not work.

[53:02]Yeah.

[53:02]Hell yeah.

[53:03]You know what, Russell?

[53:04]She must not have been

[53:05]a sapiosexual enough.

[53:06]Rob, that was my test.

[53:09]If a sapiosexual

[53:10]heard you say that,

[53:11]she would say,

[53:12]we're dining,

[53:13]dashing,

[53:14]and dicking

[53:14]out in your car

[53:15]because you just

[53:16]turned me on with that fact.

[53:17]That's Guy Fieri's

[53:20]HBO real sex show.

[53:23]Dining, dashing,

[53:24]and dicking.

[53:24]Hey, here, folks.

[53:26]We're at this restaurant.

[53:27]We're going to dine.

[53:28]Uh-oh.

[53:28]Your guy, Guy,

[53:29]forgot his wallet.

[53:30]Okay, we're going to

[53:32]head out to the car

[53:33]where Jessica 1.0

[53:34]is waiting in the back seat

[53:35]where I can hop in.

[53:36]Give her a quick deep dicking.

[53:38]Now, you know,

[53:39]now, I don't,

[53:40]and I know you guys

[53:41]are annoyed with me.

[53:42]I know that.

[53:43]But really,

[53:45]that's what Hulk Hogan did.

[53:46]He dined,

[53:48]dashed over

[53:49]to his friend's place

[53:50]to deep dick his wife.

[53:52]Oh, bro.

[53:53]You don't know why it happened?

[53:54]Come try my kicking

[53:55]Bronco sauce, brother.

[53:56]Rob, the reason it happened,

[53:59]the guy said,

[53:59]the love sponge said,

[54:01]the Hulkster had been

[54:02]feeling down recently

[54:03]and he didn't want Hulk

[54:05]to feel bad,

[54:06]so he asked his wife

[54:07]to deep dick.

[54:09]So he knew about it.

[54:12]Tell you what, brother.

[54:13]Somebody hasn't been

[54:15]taking their vitamins.

[54:16]I feel bad right now.

[54:17]All those Hulkamaniacs

[54:18]out there,

[54:19]I'm not feeling good.

[54:20]Hey, Hulkster.

[54:23]I've always wanted to see

[54:24]my wife fuck a hot dog

[54:25]with hair stapled to it,

[54:26]but you'll do.

[54:27]Do you want to deep dick

[54:28]my wife?

[54:28]Hey, I wonder what it would

[54:32]look like if a mahogany mop

[54:34]or mahogany corn broom

[54:36]with the finest baby doll hair.

[54:38]I mean, you want to talk

[54:39]about somebody who looks

[54:39]like a sex doll.

[54:40]Hulk Hogan looks

[54:42]like a sex doll.

[54:42]You're telling me

[54:43]he doesn't have doll hair?

[54:44]His hair is so fine.

[54:46]No one's telling you

[54:47]anything about Hulk Hogan.

[54:48]His hair is light as air.

[54:49]You're the only one

[54:50]telling anyone about Hulk Hogan.

[54:51]Rob, if you can get

[54:53]a Hulk Hogan sex doll,

[54:54]do you think it'd weigh

[54:54]a legit 303 pounds

[54:56]or would it be heavier?

[54:57]You think?

[54:58]We're going to have

[54:58]24-inch pythons.

[54:59]You go really quick.

[54:59]See if you can get one.

[55:01]See if you can get one.

[55:02]I never.

[55:02]Oh, I'm sorry.

[55:03]I thought I was a sapiosexual.

[55:04]I inserted a fleshlight

[55:07]into that wrestling

[55:08]backyard slamming doll

[55:09]or whatever.

[55:10]Now I can fuck Hulk Hogan,

[55:11]brother.

[55:12]The shoe's on the other foot,

[55:13]brother.

[55:14]Now I'm deep dicking you.

[55:16]So anyways, go back.

[55:19]Now try to follow that joke

[55:20]because it was a lot.

[55:21]There was a lot there

[55:21]and it all started

[55:22]with Dave Navarro.

[55:23]So very smart stuff.

[55:24]So now this is the album

[55:26]where their second album

[55:26]signed with Elektra.

[55:27]Surfer Rosa had gone

[55:28]kind of big in the UK,

[55:30]but this one was huge.

[55:31]It got all the way up

[55:32]to eight in the UK,

[55:33]only 98 in the US.

[55:35]And let's get into

[55:37]a do-little DeBaser.

[55:40]DeBaser!

[55:42]That's like

[55:43]Family Man Barrett.

[55:44]He was DeBaser.

[55:45]All right, I get it.

[55:48]Thank you.

[55:48]Woo!

[55:49]So this song is about

[55:52]the short film

[55:53]Un Chien Andalou,

[55:54]DeBaser.

[55:54]No, that's the next sentence.

[55:57]This is about the short film

[55:58]Un Chien Andalou.

[55:59]DeBaser features many

[56:01]of their signature motifs.

[56:03]But do you know what

[56:04]that movie was about?

[56:05]That French movie?

[56:06]That's the one where famously

[56:08]they had a razor blade

[56:09]on an eye

[56:10]and it was making you think

[56:11]about like, what is film?

[56:12]Yes.

[56:13]So this album starts with

[56:15]a song basically

[56:17]about cutting your eye.

[56:17]And then guess what

[56:18]the last song of the album

[56:19]is, Aaron?

[56:19]Gouge Away.

[56:20]It's also about eye trauma.

[56:22]This album is my

[56:24]number two fear of all time,

[56:25]which is, of course,

[56:26]getting my eyes hurt.

[56:27]I think about it

[56:27]every time I blow up a balloon.

[56:29]I blow up a balloon.

[56:31]It pops.

[56:32]I have a patch.

[56:33]People ask me,

[56:34]why do you wear a patch

[56:35]for the rest of your life?

[56:35]And what do I have to say?

[56:36]From blowing up a balloon?

[56:38]Terrifying.

[56:40]Yeah, definitely.

[56:41]Did I tell you I thought

[56:42]I had an eye injury

[56:44]from my inflatables

[56:46]out in the front yard?

[56:48]Oh.

[56:48]Wait.

[56:49]Wait.

[56:50]You've been keeping

[56:50]a lot of good stuff.

[56:51]Man, what the fuck?

[56:52]You had an eye injury

[56:54]from your inflatables?

[56:54]Dumb ass me.

[56:57]And now it freaks me out

[56:59]every time I do it.

[56:59]So this is this year.

[57:00]So I'm trying,

[57:01]it snowed.

[57:03]I'm trying to get

[57:04]all the inflatables

[57:04]out of the yard.

[57:05]And so I'm trying to pull

[57:06]all of the stakes up, right,

[57:08]that I can.

[57:08]So, of course,

[57:09]I did the thing

[57:10]where you lean over

[57:11]and I'm pulling up

[57:13]as it goes

[57:13]and the thing comes

[57:14]out of the ground,

[57:15]hits me right square,

[57:16]like right above,

[57:18]like the top of my eye,

[57:19]inside the socket.

[57:21]And I thought I,

[57:22]you know,

[57:22]there was a legit hour

[57:24]where I thought

[57:24]I was going to be blind

[57:25]because of an inflatable,

[57:27]Christmas inflatable stake.

[57:29]But I'll tell you what, man.

[57:30]If you're going to go blind

[57:32]by anything,

[57:32]to go blind

[57:34]by a yard inflatable,

[57:36]I'll tell you what,

[57:38]that's fucking America, man.

[57:39]I have your fear.

[57:42]That is suburban dad power right there.

[57:45]I mean, that,

[57:45]people in the neighborhood

[57:47]would talk about that forever.

[57:48]Right.

[57:48]Bury me with my new

[57:50]extension cords I just bought.

[57:51]They're so nice.

[57:52]And my one to three extenders.

[57:55]Oh my God,

[57:55]you got one to three extenders?

[57:56]You're giving me a one to three extender.

[57:58]You got your one prong

[57:59]and then you got your three,

[58:00]so you got your three

[58:01]that it's got to come into, right?

[58:02]You know, Matt,

[58:04]tell me how you wrap your hose

[58:05]on the side of your house.

[58:06]I got to know.

[58:07]Rob, if you,

[58:10]if you pass away,

[58:11]would you get a funeral plot

[58:13]with your,

[58:13]your inflatable wife?

[58:15]Would she have like a plot

[58:17]next to you or no?

[58:17]First of all,

[58:17]I want to,

[58:18]I want to point out

[58:19]in the sex doll community,

[58:21]saying she's inflatable

[58:22]is actually not true.

[58:22]It's actually super insulting.

[58:23]These are anywhere from 90

[58:25]to 120 pound dolls.

[58:26]Okay?

[58:27]So they are not inflatables.

[58:29]They're actually quite heavy.

[58:30]Sorry, Aaron.

[58:31]I didn't mean to put the quarterback

[58:32]in the machine.

[58:33]You can't take it out

[58:36]once it's in.

[58:36]I'm sorry.

[58:37]I can't help it.

[58:38]You think I would have

[58:40]a burial plot next

[58:41]for Jessica 1.0?

[58:42]I'd probably sell her

[58:45]on Facebook marketplace.

[58:46]All right, tame.

[58:52]You guys don't like that joke.

[58:53]I don't get it.

[58:54]I'm listening to the music.

[58:55]I'm enjoying Kim Dill's bass work.

[58:58]So unlike most pop songs,

[59:00]which are 16 beats,

[59:02]this is just a three bar progression,

[59:04]which kind of throws you off

[59:05]a little bit.

[59:05]Hey, I can hear that.

[59:10]This is the song

[59:13]that reminded me of

[59:14]J. Roddy Walsh.

[59:16]For sure.

[59:16]Yeah.

[59:17]He said he wrote the song

[59:19]about college girls in town

[59:21]that he thought were obnoxious.

[59:22]And I got to hear it.

[59:22]I got to tell you guys,

[59:23]I met some teens

[59:24]who were big guys,

[59:25]curly hair,

[59:26]boisterous and loud.

[59:26]And they were so fucking annoying.

[59:29]I could not stand them.

[59:30]I was like,

[59:30]this is terrible.

[59:31]This is the worst.

[59:32]Okay.

[59:33]What are those things that,

[59:35]so Rob saw those guys.

[59:36]You have things mad or Aaron,

[59:38]when you see someone,

[59:39]you're like,

[59:39]oh, this is me.

[59:40]And now I don't like it.

[59:41]It's like for me,

[59:42]if I see annoying people

[59:43]at a blackjack table,

[59:44]I'm like, oh, fuck.

[59:45]I'm the annoying guy

[59:46]at a blackjack table.

[59:47]Like that's the one

[59:48]where I look in the mirror

[59:49]and I'm like,

[59:49]I'm that fucking guy.

[59:50]I don't agree.

[59:51]And I don't like it.

[59:52]But do you guys ever see someone

[59:53]and you're like,

[59:54]man, I don't like that.

[59:55]And it's something I do.

[59:56]Well, I,

[59:58]well, I use,

[59:59]I used to be that guy

[60:00]who would like wear

[60:01]like the baseball like shoes

[60:03]and like wear the hat

[60:05]and the glasses

[60:05]and just be like the baseball guy.

[60:07]Like, you know,

[60:07]walking around in high school,

[60:09]high school kind of a thing.

[60:10]Like now I see that guy.

[60:11]I'm like, you know what?

[60:12]You know, sports really

[60:14]just figure out,

[60:16]have fun doing something else.

[60:17]Right?

[60:17]Like I was so into baseball

[60:20]and then basketball

[60:21]and football

[60:21]and I wish,

[60:23]I just wish

[60:24]I would have done something

[60:25]like with a guitar

[60:26]or drums or something,

[60:27]something else.

[60:28]You know what I mean?

[60:29]And so I was so one dimensional

[60:30]that I just want to tell

[60:32]some of those guys that,

[60:33]but that's one thing

[60:34]I thought of right away.

[60:35]I'm going to go back in time

[60:36]real quick

[60:37]and we're going to see Matt

[60:37]in high school.

[60:38]Okay, real quick.

[60:39]Hey, hey, Mrs. Smith.

[60:43]I'm done with my Richfield,

[60:45]my Richfield geography test.

[60:47]Could I read my East Bay catalog?

[60:51]Not far off.

[60:53]This is need or lucky.

[60:54]Yeah, need or lucky practice.

[60:56]You know, I can't remember the names

[60:57]or anything you guys say.

[60:59]All right.

[61:00]This song is need or lucky on Tuesday.

[61:01]Wave of mutilation.

[61:02]Wave.

[61:04]Some people think this song's

[61:07]a lot like the song

[61:08]of Sea of Love.

[61:09]It's got the same chord progression.

[61:10]I just hear like 90s alt pop.

[61:14]I don't know what you'd call this,

[61:15]but like to me,

[61:17]a lot of these songs

[61:18]could be like an American Pie movie

[61:19]or something like that.

[61:21]Yes, every one of them

[61:22]sounds like it could be

[61:22]over the opening credits

[61:23]of a Freddie Prinze Jr. movie.

[61:25]Yes.

[61:26]There were some songs

[61:27]that made me want to skip.

[61:29]Now, this is a 38-minute album.

[61:30]It's like 18 songs.

[61:32]The songs are incredibly short.

[61:33]There were a few where I was like,

[61:35]I cannot hear him scream anymore.

[61:36]I can't fucking take it.

[61:37]There was a point

[61:38]I was listening to it earlier too, Rob,

[61:40]and I was trying to read something

[61:41]while it was about song eight

[61:43]or whatever.

[61:43]I'm like, I'd rather just sit here

[61:45]in silence and I had to turn it off.

[61:46]I'm not saying it's not good

[61:47]and I didn't enjoy it,

[61:48]but there was,

[61:49]it drained me a bit.

[61:50]But then I hear it.

[61:51]I hear these songs

[61:51]like Wave of Mutilation

[61:52]and they're so good.

[61:54]They're so catchy.

[61:55]I'm like, I totally get it.

[61:56]This is great.

[61:56]A lot of these songs

[61:57]actually gave me anxiety.

[61:58]I was listening to them

[62:00]in my headphones

[62:00]and it kind of freaked me out.

[62:01]I Bleed.

[62:03]This was the one

[62:06]that reminded me of Nirvana the most.

[62:08]Yeah.

[62:09]This is a lot about,

[62:13]the singer had studied

[62:15]a little bit of archaeology

[62:16]in Arizona.

[62:17]So they think this song,

[62:18]or he said this song

[62:19]is about the cave

[62:21]dwelling and the Pueblo

[62:22]cave dwellings

[62:22]where you can go in

[62:23]and see like this whole city

[62:24]and handprints on the wall

[62:25]and everything.

[62:26]It's pretty cool.

[62:27]I've been there.

[62:27]I've seen that.

[62:28]Smart stuff.

[62:30]I just want to bring up

[62:31]quickly that the,

[62:32]you know,

[62:33]this came out in 1989,

[62:34]right?

[62:35]It was written in 1988.

[62:36]The,

[62:38]some of the top albums

[62:40]according to Wikipedia's

[62:42]list here from 1989.

[62:46]Okay.

[62:46]Don't be cruel by Bobby Brown.

[62:49]Appetite for Destruction.

[62:50]Oh.

[62:51]Destruction came out in 1989.

[62:52]It was the number one album

[62:54]for a little while.

[62:54]That blows my mind.

[62:55]Like a Prayer by Madonna.

[62:58]I'm trying to think of some

[62:59]of the hair metal ones that come,

[63:00]Dr. Feel Good by Motley Crue

[63:02]came out and was like,

[63:03]you know,

[63:03]so they are squarely in the,

[63:06]called the end of the hair metal,

[63:09]you know,

[63:09]kind of into the,

[63:10]well,

[63:11]Guns N' Roses and hair metal.

[63:12]Is it Russell?

[63:13]You don't really call that hair.

[63:14]Do you?

[63:15]I think so.

[63:16]Yes,

[63:16]I definitely think so.

[63:17]I think they're on the tail end

[63:18]of that right there.

[63:19]Yeah.

[63:20]And so,

[63:22]you know,

[63:23]so those are what this is going up again.

[63:25]I mean,

[63:25]this is completely alternative rock

[63:27]compared to,

[63:28]you know,

[63:29]what was the mainstream rock at the time.

[63:31]That's such a good comparison.

[63:32]That's such a good comparison,

[63:33]man,

[63:33]to see what else is playing.

[63:34]120 minutes.

[63:34]Also,

[63:35]Truth and Soul by Fishbone

[63:37]came out around the same time.

[63:38]It's a great album.

[63:39]Man,

[63:40]ignore what Aaron just said.

[63:41]Listen,

[63:41]don't listen to him.

[63:41]That was brilliant, Aaron.

[63:42]Listen to Fishbone.

[63:43]Girl,

[63:44]you know it's true by Milli Vanilli

[63:45]also came out.

[63:46]I mean,

[63:46]that sums it up right there,

[63:48]right?

[63:48]You're listening to Milli Vanilli

[63:49]or Bobby Brown,

[63:50]or Guns N' Roses,

[63:51]or this.

[63:53]Locked After Dark

[63:54]by Tone Loke.

[63:56]Locked After Dark

[63:57]by Tone Loke.

[63:57]Hey,

[63:58]this is me,

[63:58]Tone Loke.

[63:59]I'm going to be in a bunch of movies,

[64:00]including Pet Detective.

[64:01]It's very distracting

[64:03]when I'm in there

[64:04]because all you can think of

[64:04]is that's Tone Loke.

[64:05]Here Comes Your Man.

[64:07]This sounds like a song.

[64:10]This is the first single

[64:12]off the album,

[64:13]I believe.

[64:13]Sounds like it's in that

[64:15]Tom Hanks movie.

[64:15]It's so pleasant,

[64:16]right?

[64:16]It's like,

[64:17]it's wonderful.

[64:18]It sounded like a Beatles opening

[64:20]with the,

[64:20]the guitar strum

[64:21]that it feels like

[64:22]a Roy Orbison song.

[64:23]Right.

[64:23]Or like the band

[64:24]from That Thing You Do.

[64:25]Yes.

[64:26]This is great.

[64:29]I love this.

[64:30]Definitely.

[64:31]So this,

[64:32]this reminds me

[64:33]of Smashing Pumpkins

[64:34]and Pearl Jam

[64:35]and not so much Nirvana,

[64:36]but like all of those,

[64:38]both those bands

[64:39]have these really hard

[64:40]rock songs

[64:40]and then they just go

[64:41]completely like off

[64:43]the script

[64:43]and do something

[64:44]very poppy

[64:45]and,

[64:45]you know,

[64:46]light.

[64:47]And so,

[64:47]I don't know,

[64:48]that's where I think

[64:49]they have some influence.

[64:50]They allowed,

[64:51]if I'm allowed

[64:54]to say that,

[64:54]they allowed them

[64:55]to not just be like

[64:56]one genre of a band.

[64:58]You know,

[64:58]you can,

[64:58]you can spread your wings

[65:00]and do different kinds

[65:01]of music.

[65:01]You know who I think

[65:02]listened to that song

[65:03]is Liz Phair.

[65:04]That sounds a lot

[65:05]like Liz Phair to me.

[65:06]Big time.

[65:06]Well,

[65:07]I forgot about Liz Phair.

[65:07]We didn't listen,

[65:08]geez,

[65:08]that was a long time ago.

[65:09]People online did also say

[65:10]that this is the most

[65:11]accessible Pixies album.

[65:13]So I don't know,

[65:14]like from here,

[65:14]if it gets,

[65:15]if it's more of the yelling

[65:17]and screaming or what.

[65:18]Or accessible song.

[65:19]Did they say that was

[65:20]the most successful?

[65:20]I think so.

[65:21]I mean,

[65:21]that's like pure pop

[65:23]right there.

[65:23]Dead.

[65:24]You know who else's

[65:24]favorite song was

[65:25]Here Comes Your Man?

[65:26]Who's that?

[65:26]Rob Sextal Wife.

[65:28]Here Comes Your Man.

[65:29]I turned down the music

[65:32]to hear the joke

[65:33]Rob Sextal Wife.

[65:34]The only thing I'll say

[65:37]is that the

[65:38]Here Comes Your Man,

[65:39]they called it the,

[65:40]the group called it

[65:41]their Tom Petty song,

[65:42]which makes complete sense.

[65:44]Oh, I like that.

[65:44]That's nice.

[65:45]This is one where.

[65:47]Now it's cool again.

[65:49]Dang it.

[65:49]It kind of,

[65:50]it kind of gets back

[65:51]in the groove there,

[65:51]but I can't,

[65:53]some of these songs,

[65:54]like I gotta be careful

[65:56]because I'm not trying

[65:56]to be critical,

[65:57]but it just sounds

[65:57]like noise to me.

[65:58]It's not pleasant

[65:59]or enjoyable to me.

[66:00]And those songs

[66:02]kind of throw

[66:03]the whole album off.

[66:04]The clip Rob was playing,

[66:05]it's like,

[66:05]it's hard for me

[66:07]to get through that song.

[66:08]Russ,

[66:09]what if I tell you

[66:10]that song is about

[66:11]the famous biblical story

[66:12]about David

[66:13]and the seduction

[66:14]of Bethesda?

[66:15]Bath Sheba?

[66:20]You're so smart.

[66:21]Damn.

[66:22]Damn.

[66:24]I'm attracted to you.

[66:27]Hey, listen,

[66:28]I don't have much money,

[66:29]but we should go eat

[66:29]and then I got a good idea

[66:30]for later.

[66:31]All right.

[66:32]Monkey Gone to Heaven.

[66:34]It's an environmental song.

[66:35]I had an embarrassing moment,

[66:38]though.

[66:38]I talk like I know

[66:40]a lot about music.

[66:41]I went to the A's opener.

[66:43]I had a wine

[66:46]that was called

[66:47]Monkey Gone to Heaven.

[66:49]The name of the wine

[66:49]was Monkey Gone to Heaven.

[66:50]I was like,

[66:51]here's a fun name of a wine.

[66:52]It's like a little

[66:52]Gamma A slammer.

[66:54]And this friend of mine

[66:55]was like,

[66:55]oh, don't you know that song?

[66:57]I was like,

[66:57]no, I don't know

[66:58]what you're talking about.

[66:58]And this was before

[66:59]I had heard,

[66:59]listened to this album

[67:00]and I totally

[67:01]looked like a poser

[67:03]because I didn't know

[67:04]the name of the song

[67:05]Monkey Gone to Heaven.

[67:06]Did he say he's catching up

[67:07]on the podcast

[67:08]when you mentioned later

[67:09]that you have a music podcast?

[67:10]No, he did not.

[67:12]Unfortunately, no.

[67:13]Mr. Greaves.

[67:20]This was a big old skip

[67:23]for me.

[67:24]That's some Scott.

[67:25]So this sounds,

[67:28]you know,

[67:29]you talked about

[67:30]in your opening

[67:30]that they were,

[67:31]you know,

[67:32]they all met at Amherst.

[67:33]This just sounds

[67:35]like a college song

[67:36]to me, right?

[67:37]Like they wrote in college

[67:38]kind of a thing.

[67:39]And so it got me thinking.

[67:41]Russ is like,

[67:41]no, it's the Limestones.

[67:42]That's a college song.

[67:43]It's the Limestones, yeah.

[67:44]So it got me thinking

[67:46]that they're,

[67:47]obviously a ton of bands

[67:49]got formed, right?

[67:50]In college

[67:51]and then people

[67:52]come together

[67:52]and form these bands.

[67:53]But I've had this

[67:55]for a long time.

[67:57]There's kind of like

[67:57]this little node

[67:59]up in the Northeast

[68:00]of a few different bands

[68:02]that were formed

[68:03]up in like

[68:04]white privilege colleges

[68:06]in the Northeast

[68:08]that have come out

[68:09]and done pretty well

[68:09]with themselves.

[68:10]So I thought we could

[68:10]potentially do a list

[68:12]about white privilege colleges

[68:14]and the bands

[68:15]that have come out of them.

[68:16]Oh, nice.

[68:17]Northeast.

[68:18]But only the,

[68:19]so you're not going to

[68:20]do COSA.

[68:21]So I'm not,

[68:23]I'm not going to do,

[68:24]I wanted to,

[68:25]I wanted to try to figure out

[68:26]how I could get

[68:27]Hootie and the Blowfish

[68:28]in there.

[68:28]Oh, nice.

[68:29]Just so we can hear more Hootie

[68:31]because, you know,

[68:32]Cracked Rearview Mirror,

[68:33]whatever,

[68:34]that's got to be number

[68:35]501 on the list

[68:36]because it's not on the

[68:37]top 100 list

[68:38]for some reason.

[68:39]Where did they go to college?

[68:40]Why didn't that work out?

[68:41]They went to South Carolina.

[68:44]Oh, doesn't work.

[68:45]Northeast.

[68:46]Yeah.

[68:46]Northeast.

[68:47]We should look at it.

[68:48]So first,

[68:49]first on

[68:50]the list,

[68:51]Steely Dan.

[68:52]And I,

[68:52]there's a couple of these

[68:54]that we've already heard,

[68:54]but the album,

[68:56]any of the albums that,

[68:57]any of the songs

[68:58]from the albums

[68:58]that we've had already,

[68:59]I did not take a song

[69:00]from there.

[69:01]So these are new to the,

[69:02]I got a little bit better

[69:04]with this one, Russell.

[69:04]I got some background

[69:05]and I tried to think

[69:06]about a little bit.

[69:07]So the first one I got

[69:08]is Reeling in the Years

[69:10]by Steely Dan.

[69:11]They went to Bard College.

[69:13]Asia was number 63

[69:17]on the list.

[69:17]This is on Can't Buy

[69:18]at a,

[69:20]Drill is 168.

[69:22]So we'll be coming up

[69:22]on this album here

[69:23]pretty soon.

[69:24]What college did they go to?

[69:25]They went to Bard College.

[69:27]So don't have a cow, man.

[69:29]Don't ever.

[69:30]They met 1967

[69:32]as Fagin passed by a cafe,

[69:36]the Red Balloon.

[69:37]He heard Becker

[69:37]practicing the electric guitar.

[69:39]In an interview,

[69:40]Fagin recounted

[69:41]the experience.

[69:42]I hear this guy practicing

[69:43]and it sounded very professional

[69:44]and contemporary.

[69:45]It sounded like,

[69:46]you know,

[69:46]like something

[69:48]I would really like.

[69:49]He introduced himself to Becker

[69:50]and I was like,

[69:50]do you want to be in a band?

[69:51]And that's how

[69:52]Steely Dan was formed.

[69:54]You know what's weird, man,

[69:54]is you know what

[69:55]their second question was?

[69:56]Hey, should we name the band

[69:58]after vibrators?

[69:59]After a vibrator

[70:00]in a book,

[70:01]some weird book?

[70:02]The guy was like,

[70:03]uh, yeah.

[70:03]Oh my God,

[70:04]that's our first,

[70:05]that's our album.

[70:05]I just wrote a profile

[70:07]in the LA Times

[70:08]by Jeff Weiss

[70:09]of underrated

[70:11]Compton rapper Sugar Free.

[70:12]And Sugar Free

[70:14]was talking about

[70:14]his musical education

[70:15]as a kid.

[70:15]And he was like,

[70:16]my dad always listened to music

[70:17]and it was all,

[70:17]like my dad would come home

[70:18]and play music from the car

[70:19]and it was,

[70:20]Al Green,

[70:21]Steely Dan,

[70:21]and Parliament Funkadelic.

[70:22]Those were the three things

[70:23]that crazy.

[70:24]I mean,

[70:25]what an education.

[70:26]All right,

[70:27]the next band,

[70:28]I can't stand.

[70:30]But,

[70:30]they're extremely popular.

[70:33]Everybody likes them.

[70:34]They're from the Northeast.

[70:35]So,

[70:36]Phish was formed

[70:37]at the University of Vermont.

[70:39]And I've got a couple

[70:39]clips here.

[70:40]And the first one

[70:42]is why I really

[70:43]dislike this band.

[70:43]Well, I've been rolling

[70:44]down the street

[70:45]smoking indoors,

[70:46]sipping on gin and juice.

[70:47]Legit,

[70:48]Russell,

[70:48]can I tell you something

[70:49]that's sick?

[70:49]Legit,

[70:50]that song comes on

[70:51]and Jenny goes,

[70:52]this is one of my favorite songs.

[70:54]And I was like,

[70:55]my world's,

[70:56]that's not Phish.

[70:57]I know,

[70:57]it's the Gorge.

[70:58]But that's the funny part.

[70:58]But the song comes on

[70:59]our Alexa now.

[71:00]It's on our favorite,

[71:01]and she goes,

[71:02]I love this song.

[71:03]And I was like,

[71:03]oh my God,

[71:03]my worlds are colliding.

[71:04]This is so strange.

[71:05]Winamp said it was Phish.

[71:07]I know,

[71:08]I thought it was Phish

[71:08]for the longest.

[71:09]I know.

[71:10]Play this.

[71:12]This is why I do not like

[71:13]just listen to this.

[71:14]Turn it up a little bit.

[71:20]It sounds a little bit like

[71:23]They Might Be Giants.

[71:23]I'm like,

[71:24]oh my God.

[71:25]It sounds very familiar.

[71:28]All right,

[71:28]so this is like one,

[71:29]this is,

[71:30]I took a live version

[71:31]of this song

[71:32]and I forget the name

[71:33]of the song.

[71:33]Reba,

[71:34]maybe,

[71:35]or something like that.

[71:35]And so,

[71:36]it ends up being

[71:37]like a 14-minute song.

[71:38]And this is their jam,

[71:39]the second part of it here.

[71:40]And you play the jam

[71:41]while I read

[71:42]what I wrote down

[71:42]about Phish.

[71:43]So,

[71:43]Phish was formed

[71:45]at the University of Vermont

[71:46]in 1983

[71:47]by guitarist Trey

[71:48]and Jeff.

[71:49]I'm not going to read

[71:50]their last names.

[71:50]And the bassist

[71:52]and the drummer,

[71:52]Anastasio and Phishman

[71:54]had met in October

[71:56]after Anastasio

[71:57]overheard Phishman

[71:57]playing drums

[71:58]in his dormitory room

[71:59]and asked him,

[72:00]hey,

[72:00]you want to be,

[72:01]you want to jam with me?

[72:02]So then Gordon met

[72:03]the trio shortly after

[72:05]having answered

[72:06]a want ad

[72:06]for a bass guitar

[72:08]that Anastasio

[72:09]had posted

[72:09]around the university.

[72:10]So literally,

[72:10]they just,

[72:11]four dudes

[72:13]hanging out

[72:13]at the University of Vermont.

[72:14]Now they're Phish

[72:15]and they're this worldwide

[72:16]Matt,

[72:17]how cool would it have been

[72:18]if you had played

[72:18]a little more guitar

[72:19]in high school?

[72:20]And you would have answered

[72:21]like an ad from Aaron

[72:22]saying he was starting

[72:23]a band

[72:24]and needed a guitar player.

[72:25]So how great.

[72:26]Would have been great.

[72:27]So you know,

[72:28]we've had this debate, right?

[72:29]Would you rather be

[72:30]a pro athlete

[72:30]or a professional,

[72:31]you know,

[72:32]like a successful musician?

[72:33]And I'm absolutely

[72:34]in the successful

[72:36]musician category now

[72:38]as opposed to being

[72:39]a professional athlete.

[72:40]Imagine you come

[72:41]into your dorm

[72:41]freshman year

[72:42]and there's a fucking

[72:43]drum set in there.

[72:44]Your roommate is playing

[72:45]the drums in a dorm room.

[72:47]Get me the fuck

[72:48]out of there.

[72:49]Could not take,

[72:49]I don't care

[72:50]if that guy's going

[72:50]to become the drummer

[72:51]and fish.

[72:51]Goodbye.

[72:52]Don't need it.

[72:52]And then you get moved,

[72:54]you get moved

[72:54]into another dorm room

[72:55]and your second roommate's

[72:56]got a ferret.

[72:57]Get me the fuck

[72:58]out of there too.

[72:59]All the way out.

[72:59]And you go to a third dorm room

[73:01]and it's Jessica 1.0

[73:02]with a Guy Fieri mask on.

[73:03]What?

[73:04]This is,

[73:06]this is the room for me.

[73:08]If I remember correctly,

[73:10]Aaron can fix me.

[73:11]Someone may have gotten

[73:12]a blow up doll

[73:13]from one of our friends

[73:13]for their 18th birthday.

[73:15]I think it was

[73:16]just a fleshlight,

[73:17]but maybe there was a full.

[73:18]Man, no, no.

[73:19]I think it was

[73:20]I think you're right.

[73:20]I think it might've been

[73:21]a full doll.

[73:21]No, I think you're right.

[73:22]I think it might've been

[73:23]a full doll.

[73:23]No, I think you're right.

[73:24]Yeah.

[73:24]But it was an inflatable,

[73:26]not a real one.

[73:27]I'm not sure whether

[73:28]it was ever used

[73:29]for its intended purpose.

[73:30]Inflatable doll's gift?

[73:31]Hilarious.

[73:32]Fleshlight is gift?

[73:34]Not hilarious.

[73:35]Very strange.

[73:36]Oh, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha.

[73:39]Listen, you're not ha, ha

[73:40]when you're jacking off

[73:41]with that thing later.

[73:42]I'll tell you that.

[73:42]That orgasm is unironic.

[73:47]Unironical.

[73:50]Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha.

[73:51]Don't you think?

[73:51]Next, next band.

[73:54]This is the one

[73:55]that I thought of

[73:55]in particular.

[73:56]MGMT is one

[73:58]of my favorite bands.

[73:59]I saw them live

[74:00]at First Ave

[74:00]with Nick from Minneapolis.

[74:02]Had a great time.

[74:03]First Ave is such a good spot

[74:04]to see any band

[74:05]because there's enough people there

[74:07]to make it a crowd,

[74:07]but you can get close enough

[74:09]to like,

[74:09]feel like you're close

[74:10]to the band.

[74:11]So, MGMT,

[74:12]go ahead and hit play, Rob.

[74:14]Ben Goldwasser

[74:16]and Andrew Van Wygaard

[74:18]formed the band

[74:18]while attending

[74:19]Wesleyan's

[74:20]University

[74:20]during their freshman year.

[74:22]We weren't trying

[74:23]to start a band

[74:24]with Mark and Goldwasser.

[74:25]We were just hanging out

[74:27]and showing each other

[74:28]music that we liked.

[74:29]They named

[74:30]The Talking Heads,

[74:31]Orchestral Maneuvers

[74:33]in the Dark,

[74:33]OMB,

[74:34]whatever them,

[74:34]and those artists

[74:37]were definitely

[74:37]in their blood.

[74:38]They experimented

[74:38]with noise, rock,

[74:39]electronica before

[74:40]settling on

[74:42]with Spin Magazine

[74:44]called their current brand

[74:45]of shape-shifting

[74:46]psychedelic pop.

[74:47]So, great band.

[74:49]Did you know,

[74:49]listen to it?

[74:50]I listen to them all the time.

[74:50]Now, Matt,

[74:51]did you know that Aaron

[74:52]is going to join MGMT,

[74:53]but you know what

[74:54]it's called now?

[74:54]Middle MGMT.

[74:57]Middle MGMT.

[75:00]Very nice.

[75:01]Next group,

[75:02]Vampire Weekend.

[75:03]I did not know

[75:04]the history of these guys,

[75:06]but the band members

[75:07]met while enrolled

[75:08]at Columbia University,

[75:09]beginning with a rap

[75:10]collaboration between

[75:11]Koenig and Thompson

[75:12]named La Home Run.

[75:14]And La Home is probably

[75:16]some writer, isn't it,

[75:18]or something?

[75:18]So, let's give them

[75:20]a bunch of smart kids again.

[75:21]They bonded over

[75:22]shared love of punk music

[75:24]and African music,

[75:25]and I can't believe

[75:26]that Vampire Weekend,

[75:27]what we hear,

[75:28]came out of a rap group

[75:30]who liked punk rock

[75:31]and African music,

[75:32]but this little poppy,

[75:34]you know,

[75:35]group has put out

[75:36]some pretty good albums

[75:37]over the years,

[75:38]including their latest one.

[75:39]Remember,

[75:40]the Vampire Weekend,

[75:42]it was on one episode before,

[75:43]way back in our

[75:45]Abbey Road episode.

[75:46]Oh, wow.

[75:47]They were the number one song

[75:48]for the best song

[75:49]featuring a harpsichord.

[75:50]Jeez.

[75:51]My God.

[75:52]We did a harpsichord list

[75:56]and the number one

[75:57]was Vampire Weekend.

[75:59]I would have lost them.

[75:59]You want to hear the top five?

[76:00]Yes, please.

[76:01]It was Eminem,

[76:02]The Real Slim Shady,

[76:03]The Black Keys,

[76:05]Too Afraid to Love You,

[76:07]The Stranglers,

[76:09]Golden Brown,

[76:10]and The Doors,

[76:12]Love Me Two Times.

[76:13]Oh, my God.

[76:13]Such a,

[76:14]when I think of harpsichord,

[76:15]that's what I think of,

[76:16]for sure.

[76:17]That's it.

[76:17]Now, Matt,

[76:18]what was that last song called?

[76:20]Holiday?

[76:20]Holiday?

[76:22]I was wondering

[76:22]because they had a whole part.

[76:24]I'm going to edit this

[76:25]into the Madonna album as well.

[76:27]They had a whole part

[76:28]of the song

[76:28]about the macadamia nut cookies

[76:30]and the blue Gatorade.

[76:31]About how good it is there?

[76:32]Like, it's...

[76:34]What?

[76:34]At the holiday?

[76:35]Holiday.

[76:36]Or is that a quick trip?

[76:37]If I've been out of Minnesota

[76:38]too long, I'm mixed up.

[76:39]Still got a lot of holidays.

[76:41]You are correct, sir.

[76:43]They do it at a gas station

[76:44]with better...

[76:45]Rob, I did go into

[76:47]a holiday today.

[76:47]Yep.

[76:48]You're tempted

[76:49]by those rolling tornadoes,

[76:51]aren't you?

[76:51]Those meat tornado things

[76:52]they have?

[76:52]Two people in line.

[76:54]There's two checkout people.

[76:56]One person

[76:56]was in line

[76:58]buying lottery tickets,

[76:59]scratching at this thing.

[77:00]Yep.

[77:01]The other person

[77:02]was busy

[77:03]flipping through their phone

[77:04]for like five minutes

[77:05]trying to find their code

[77:08]for like their points.

[77:09]Oh.

[77:09]So they could get points

[77:10]for their...

[77:11]No.

[77:11]No.

[77:13]And Russell's there

[77:15]holding like

[77:15]the hottest mini pizza.

[77:17]He's like,

[77:18]oh, it's so hot.

[77:19]If I was holding

[77:19]a sex doll in there,

[77:21]I would have been

[77:21]the third most

[77:22]least annoying person

[77:23]in that building.

[77:24]What do you want,

[77:28]do you want the M&M cookies

[77:30]or the macadamia nut ones?

[77:32]All right.

[77:34]Last band.

[77:35]We've heard them before.

[77:36]So we've got

[77:38]Talking Heads.

[77:40]We heard

[77:41]Talking Heads

[77:42]Remain in the Light

[77:43]at number 39.

[77:45]This song

[77:46]called Take Me to the River.

[77:47]You guys have all

[77:48]probably heard it.

[77:49]It comes off

[77:49]the album

[77:50]More Songs

[77:51]About Buildings and Food,

[77:52]which is number 364

[77:54]on the list.

[77:54]We will hear this song again.

[77:56]In 1973,

[77:57]they were at

[77:58]the Rhode Island

[77:58]School of Design

[78:00]where David Byrne

[78:02]and Chris Franz

[78:03]formed a band,

[78:04]The Artistics.

[78:07]Fellow student

[78:08]Tina Weymouth,

[78:09]Fran's girlfriend,

[78:11]often provided

[78:12]transportation.

[78:13]The Artistics

[78:14]dissolved the following year

[78:16]and the three moved

[78:16]to New York,

[78:17]eventually sharing

[78:17]a communal loft.

[78:19]After the year,

[78:19]if they were unable

[78:19]to find a bassist,

[78:20]Weymouth took the role.

[78:22]Franz encouraged Weymouth

[78:24]to learn to play bass

[78:24]by listening to

[78:25]Suzy Quattro albums.

[78:27]Don't know Suzy Quattro.

[78:28]Have you ever heard

[78:28]of Suzy Quattro?

[78:29]Brynn asked Weymouth

[78:32]to audition three times

[78:34]before she ended up

[78:34]joining the band.

[78:35]So long,

[78:36]long way to come

[78:38]to being

[78:38]what is the Talking Heads,

[78:40]but they originally

[78:41]started at the

[78:41]Rhode Island School of Design.

[78:43]Interesting.

[78:43]You know who else

[78:44]was in their dorm room?

[78:46]There was a certain

[78:49]fish on the...

[78:51]What the fuck, Aaron?

[78:52]He just takes his glasses.

[78:54]What the fuck?

[78:55]Aaron,

[78:56]at least he listened

[78:57]to you this time.

[78:57]At least he learned you.

[78:58]You asked.

[79:00]For the most part,

[79:01]that was a really good list, man,

[79:02]until it was actually

[79:03]ruined at the end.

[79:04]We got Bard.

[79:06]We've got University

[79:07]of Vermont,

[79:08]of Vermont,

[79:09]Wesleyan,

[79:10]Columbia,

[79:11]and Rhode Island

[79:11]School of Design.

[79:12]So a lot of

[79:13]nice white

[79:14]bands coming out

[79:16]of the Northeast.

[79:17]I was going to tell

[79:17]at least a three-minute story

[79:18]about Billy Bass

[79:19]learning the lyrics,

[79:20]being afraid,

[79:21]coming out on stage,

[79:23]and you just said

[79:25]Billy Bass.

[79:26]You didn't even say a fit.

[79:26]Oh, my God.

[79:27]You said,

[79:28]do you know?

[79:28]I knew.

[79:29]You're right.

[79:30]You know what, Aaron?

[79:31]You're right.

[79:32]When you're right,

[79:32]you're right.

[79:32]You caught me in logic.

[79:33]All right.

[79:34]Next up.

[79:35]What did we do?

[79:37]Oh, that was

[79:37]Monkey Gone to Heaven.

[79:38]Mr.

[79:38]No.

[79:39]Mr. Greaves?

[79:40]Mr. Greaves, right?

[79:41]Yeah.

[79:42]Next up,

[79:43]Crackety Jones.

[79:45]Crackety Jones.

[79:46]This was a song

[79:46]that they said

[79:47]would often cause moshes

[79:48]at their

[79:49]concerts.

[79:50]Did you guys ever mosh?

[79:52]Huh?

[79:55]Like a little bit,

[79:57]but not really.

[79:57]I did a slam

[79:59]by Onyx growing up,

[80:00]but that wasn't really mosh.

[80:01]That was slam.

[80:02]You were just

[80:05]letting your boys be boys.

[80:06]I get it.

[80:08]I don't know.

[80:11]Moshing always scared me,

[80:12]though.

[80:12]I never wanted to mosh.

[80:13]Is that the fastest song

[80:15]we've heard

[80:15]out of any song

[80:17]we've listened to so far?

[80:18]Like, maybe Metallica?

[80:19]Metallica's got something

[80:20]that fast,

[80:20]but go back and play that.

[80:21]That's so fast.

[80:22]What's the fastest song

[80:23]we've heard?

[80:24]I bet there's a Sex Pistol one.

[80:26]You think?

[80:28]When it gets going,

[80:30]it's fast.

[80:31]Let's see.

[80:32]Yeah, this is moving.

[80:35]Yeah, definitely.

[80:35]I already think it's fast.

[80:36]You know what?

[80:37]Speaking about

[80:38]a fucking mosh.

[80:39]Yeah!

[80:40]Yeah!

[80:41]Let's fucking hit people.

[80:42]Said never me.

[80:45]La La Love You.

[80:47]La La Love You.

[80:49]They said that

[80:53]they'd need to make

[80:54]a silly song.

[80:55]Is this the one

[80:56]with the creepy whistling?

[80:58]I think so.

[81:00]Yeah, Shake Your Butt.

[81:02]Yeah, this is a weird song.

[81:03]This song doesn't fly anymore,

[81:07]does it?

[81:07]When you listen

[81:09]to what's going on?

[81:10]Probably not.

[81:11]If you don't think it's right,

[81:13]if you don't think it's right,

[81:14]Russell, I don't think it's right.

[81:15]Yeah, if you have to guess,

[81:16]if you have to ask,

[81:17]it's probably not right.

[81:19]Number 13, baby.

[81:20]Now, you might say to yourself,

[81:21]number 13,

[81:22]is this Aaron's,

[81:23]as he calls them,

[81:25]grunts

[81:26]that have to do all the work for him

[81:28]at the office?

[81:29]No.

[81:29]This is a song about

[81:31]the 13th letter of the alphabet.

[81:32]Aaron, what's the 13th letter

[81:33]of the alphabet?

[81:34]L?

[81:38]Aaron,

[81:40]I no longer want to have sex with you.

[81:42]Matt's right.

[81:43]It's an M.

[81:44]Oh.

[81:45]Okay, it's an M.

[81:46]And he did on the forehead.

[81:48]YMCA style.

[81:49]This is a song about Mary Jane, okay?

[81:53]And not the Mary Jane that's dead

[81:55]that you're dancing with,

[81:56]even though you also look like a corpse.

[81:57]Speaking of Tom Petty,

[81:58]this is the Mary Jane at marijuana.

[82:00]You remember when we were earlier on that,

[82:03]the monkey's gone to heaven?

[82:04]Is that in a lot of other songs?

[82:06]Because I recognize in a different song.

[82:08]Do you guys know what it is?

[82:09]What?

[82:11]No.

[82:11]I think it's Firewater Burn.

[82:13]Go pull up Firewater Burn by the Bloodhound Gang.

[82:15]Oh, my God.

[82:18]Yes.

[82:18]We're finally doing it.

[82:19]We're finally having the Bloodhound Gang on the podcast.

[82:22]There we go.

[82:22]Right here.

[82:23]You got it.

[82:24]Yeah.

[82:32]Are you talking about Frank Black?

[82:33]Yeah, there you go.

[82:38]Guess what?

[82:41]Aaron didn't know about Pixie songs.

[82:44]You know about Pixie songs and relating to the Bloodhound Gang.

[82:47]Russell, that's why I was like,

[82:48]I know that.

[82:49]I was like,

[82:49]maybe it's famous from a ton of songs.

[82:52]I was like,

[82:53]no, it's famous from the Pixies.

[82:55]And he even shouts out Frank Black.

[82:56]Black Francis.

[82:57]Yeah, it's cool, isn't it?

[82:59]Brilliant.

[82:59]Somebody from Billboard said,

[83:00]is the world ready or in need of a new act

[83:03]miming Ground Broken by the Beastie Boys

[83:06]and Ugly Kid Joe a number of years ago?

[83:08]Probably not.

[83:09]But here comes the Bloodhound Gang.

[83:10]Ugly Kid Joe.

[83:12]Wow.

[83:13]Best part of that was definitely the radio version

[83:16]where they donkey.

[83:17]The ee-haw, right?

[83:18]Oh, my God.

[83:19]You guys are way.

[83:20]You guys are Bloodhound Gang heads.

[83:23]I didn't even know that was the Bloodhound Gang.

[83:25]That's how embarrassed I was.

[83:25]The only song of theirs I know is Chasey Lane.

[83:28]It's about the adult actress.

[83:31]Never mind.

[83:31]Let's not get into why I know that song.

[83:33]Okay, there goes my gun.

[83:34]Great song, by the way.

[83:36]They basically made a pop song with three lines.

[83:43]We don't have that many other.

[83:47]I was thinking we don't have that in many other mixed gender bands

[83:51]like Fleetwood Mac.

[83:52]But definitely not.

[83:54]We don't hear this sound where we hear men and women's voices

[83:56]either singing together or trading off that often.

[83:58]Fugees were another mixed gender band.

[84:00]Or to said.

[84:00]Okay, yeah.

[84:02]Hey, this is their most popular song

[84:06]or one of their more popular songs.

[84:08]Been trying to meet you.

[84:11]To meet you.

[84:12]And they say it's one of their few R&B songs.

[84:17]It's got a groove.

[84:20]Yeah.

[84:22]Kind of that walking bass.

[84:24]And then, of course, they have to say whores like 30 times.

[84:29]I was like, this is stressing me out.

[84:31]Silver.

[84:32]I think at this point in the album, I just started all the songs.

[84:38]I was like, I don't want to pick any more places.

[84:40]Let's just go.

[84:41]It's a lot of songs.

[84:44]It's...

[84:46]They're all short, though.

[84:47]Yeah.

[84:47]Rob, did you talk about why they're short at the beginning?

[84:51]I might have missed it.

[84:51]Did you read that, though?

[84:53]No.

[84:53]Is it because it doesn't matter how big it is?

[84:56]Actually, a lot of people say that.

[84:57]Maybe in public.

[84:58]No, I was reading that the producer or someone was telling them

[85:01]they should make shorter songs.

[85:02]And they said, you know what?

[85:03]All of Buddy Holly's songs were short.

[85:06]And he played Buddy Holly's music.

[85:07]And they're like, if it's good enough for Buddy Holly,

[85:08]it's good enough for us.

[85:09]Oh, that's great.

[85:10]Brilliant.

[85:10]Gouge away.

[85:12]Gouge away.

[85:15]Another.

[85:16]Eye injury song.

[85:17]I thought this was a pretty strong finish.

[85:20]I thought it was a good song to end on.

[85:21]I agree.

[85:22]It works.

[85:22]And this silver back-to-back with this one

[85:26]is like a fun summary of what they were doing.

[85:29]You do have to keep in mind, right?

[85:32]We're talking, what, 1989 here?

[85:36]89.

[85:37]Written in 88, released in 89.

[85:39]If you would say this is 1994, I'd say, oh, yeah,

[85:41]that makes total sense.

[85:42]But 1989, this is an early, early, early.

[85:45]And that's why.

[85:46]But does this belong at 141 on the list?

[85:48]That's why we need to start talking about.

[85:50]Nope, not that one.

[85:51]We need to do our rating system.

[85:55]Don't think yes.

[85:58]This one doesn't have an emoji.

[85:59]It all does, Rob.

[85:59]No, I couldn't think of an emoji for rating system.

[86:02]Maybe I'll put a bone.

[86:05]That's what I'll put on it.

[86:07]You know what?

[86:07]Right now, I'm going to put a bone on there.

[86:11]Yeah, I spelled it wrong.

[86:13]Don't judge me.

[86:14]Bury the bone.

[86:16]You can put the legal scales on there.

[86:17]Oh, my God, you're frozen.

[86:20]You're so smart.

[86:21]What do you think?

[86:23]This album, okay?

[86:25]Pixies, do little.

[86:26]Does it do little for you?

[86:28]You don't think this is very good.

[86:30]I mean, it just comes to me sometimes.

[86:31]You don't think it's very good.

[86:33]This is a rolling groan.

[86:35]You did not like listening to this.

[86:36]Or did this do okay for you?

[86:38]Yes, I'm nailing it again.

[86:40]This is a rolling well-toned.

[86:42]It is a perfect album.

[86:43]Or is this a do?

[86:46]Do not little.

[86:47]Now, you thought I was going to say do more

[86:48]because you'd be like,

[86:49]oh, Rob is going to say more,

[86:50]but it's more.

[86:51]And I said not little.

[86:52]That means it's a lot, okay?

[86:54]Some people, if they say it's not little,

[86:55]that's actually a great compliment.

[86:56]And that would be a rolling bone

[87:00]that should have been higher on the list, okay?

[87:01]Speaking of do little,

[87:02]it should have been higher on the list, okay?

[87:04]This album is above 141, okay?

[87:07]Madonna Who?

[87:08]This album should be above it.

[87:10]What do you think?

[87:11]Rolling well-toned, rolling bone,

[87:12]or rolling groan?

[87:13]Matt, the Madonna Who question

[87:15]was rhetorical because, of course,

[87:16]she does not have a last name,

[87:18]so something to think about.

[87:18]I really like this album,

[87:23]and I really like the Pixies.

[87:24]I think I'm going to kind of steal

[87:27]a little bit of Russell's take here

[87:29]is that there's not really a song

[87:31]you know on this album, right?

[87:33]And I think that even in the top 250,

[87:37]let's say, if you're going to have

[87:38]a top 250 album,

[87:40]you should have some songs

[87:41]that everybody knows, in my opinion.

[87:43]There's going to be some that don't hit,

[87:45]but I think that this album

[87:47]is very influential,

[87:48]but I don't think it belongs

[87:50]at 140, 141 on this list.

[87:54]So if you were to tell me

[87:55]this is in like the high 200s,

[87:57]low 300s, I might say

[87:58]it's rolling well-toned right there,

[88:00]but I'm going to go with

[88:01]rolling groan at 141.

[88:03]Should be down the list a little bit.

[88:05]Definitely should be in the top 500,

[88:06]but it's a little too high of a ranking.

[88:09]Russell, what do you think?

[88:10]Rolling well-toned, rolling bone,

[88:11]or rolling groan?

[88:12]I enjoyed some of the guitar stuff on here.

[88:15]I thought it was pretty dynamic.

[88:16]They were kind of playing

[88:17]with like volumes and stuff.

[88:18]You know, they'd speed it up,

[88:19]slow it down, get loud, make it softer.

[88:21]For me, it's just not something

[88:24]that really connects with me.

[88:25]And Matt said, you know,

[88:26]this is kind of in our time

[88:28]of, you know, being kids.

[88:29]It's a little bit, you know,

[88:30]before our teenage years,

[88:31]but if I don't know the songs

[88:33]and there's not like a big hit for me,

[88:35]it's probably not something

[88:37]I'm going to come back and listen to.

[88:38]So I think it's really interesting.

[88:40]Music is probably very influential,

[88:41]but it really does little for me.

[88:44]So I'm going to,

[88:45]I'm going to say it's Rolling Groan.

[88:46]It's too high on the list.

[88:48]Rosie, what do you think?

[88:49]Doolittle, Pixies, 89.

[88:50]What do you think?

[88:51]Yeah, I put this on last time

[88:54]when I was watching basketball

[88:55]and it was actually really great for that.

[88:56]I was watching the Clippers and the Suns.

[88:58]I thought it worked really well.

[88:58]And so I was like, I don't know, man.

[88:59]I kind of, I kind of like this.

[89:01]And then, wow.

[89:04]And then the more I think about it,

[89:08]I'm back in that same spot

[89:09]where I'm like,

[89:10]we haven't heard Willie Nelson.

[89:11]We haven't heard Whitney Houston.

[89:12]We haven't heard Ohio players.

[89:15]Nina Simone.

[89:15]So I just, I don't know.

[89:16]I think, I think that they,

[89:19]they made some great music on this album.

[89:21]I think they didn't necessarily want it

[89:22]to be pleasant to listen to.

[89:24]And a lot of people took

[89:25]a lot of great stuff from it,

[89:26]but I might have to call it

[89:27]Rolling Groan also.

[89:29]That speech was wild

[89:30]with round ball rock

[89:31]playing in the background of it.

[89:32]I just got to say,

[89:33]it was enjoyed at totally separate tones.

[89:35]I loved it.

[89:35]Listen, unfortunately,

[89:37]you are all incorrect.

[89:38]Of course,

[89:38]this gets a rolling pre-smashing pump cones.

[89:42]Okay.

[89:43]I mean, this, that whole idea,

[89:45]pre-smashing pump cones.

[89:46]Of alternative music.

[89:47]Matt said it more eloquently than me,

[89:48]but this whole, this, again,

[89:50]we had it with,

[89:51]oh, we had it the other day

[89:53]with Black Sabbath,

[89:55]talking about how they invented metal.

[89:56]This you could point to

[89:58]as a definite branch in the tree

[90:00]that is alternative music.

[90:01]Like this is a hugely important album

[90:04]and that's why it gets

[90:05]a rolling pre-smashing pump cones.

[90:07]That's the first time I've said my bit twice

[90:08]and I regret it.

[90:09]Big mistake.

[90:10]Should not do that anymore.

[90:11]It's not that funny the first time.

[90:13]Depressing the second time.

[90:15]Pre-smashing pump cones.

[90:16]Live and learn.

[90:16]You can live and learn.

[90:17]Pre-smashing pump cones.

[90:18]Okay.

[90:18]Thought the rule of three would come in

[90:19]and help me out there.

[90:20]It did not.

[90:21]Okay.

[90:21]If anything, it's-

[90:22]Try the rule of four.

[90:23]Pre-smashing pump cones.

[90:25]Say it again.

[90:26]Okay.

[90:27]Rule of four.

[90:28]Don't think that's a thing.

[90:29]Just follow the words.

[90:30]I think it was like,

[90:31]it's almost like a Nike swoosh, right?

[90:33]Like you started

[90:34]and then it went way down

[90:35]and you're kind of slowly coming back up.

[90:36]All right.

[90:36]That's what I like to hear.

[90:37]That's what I like to hear.

[90:38]The more you say it, so.

[90:39]Next up.

[90:40]Finally,

[90:42]we have an album

[90:43]where I can sing about

[90:44]the two papers I wrote

[90:45]on adult films.

[90:46]It was porn in two essays.

[90:50]Born in the USA by the boss.

[90:54]Aaron might need like three weeks off

[90:56]from this podcast after tonight.

[90:58]What?

[90:58]He can't unsee what he saw earlier

[91:02]on that website you had pulled up.

[91:03]Yeah, that one.

[91:04]That he booked for.

[91:05]He booked for.

[91:12]Oh, you jack.

[91:13]Beck did it better.

[91:15]You better have a joke

[91:20]because I got one

[91:21]but you're going to have to edit it out.

[91:22]Does it involve a sex doll

[91:26]and my king gizzard

[91:27]and my lizard wizard?

[91:28]You nailed it.

[91:32]It's time to say

[91:33]You can read my mind.

[91:36]Goodbye.

[91:38]After the ceremony,

[91:42]you take her out

[91:42]for some dining, dashing

[91:43]and deep dicking, right?

[91:44]Oh my God.

[91:45]He put a triangle emoji

[91:49]over the triangle.

[91:49]Good work.

[91:53]Oh my God.
