Public Enemy: Fear of a Black Planet (1990)

[00:00]In 2024, can I not do it by memory? Should I try doing it by memory? I'm going to try. In 2024, Friends decided to listen to every album on the Rolling Stones top 500. And then they started a text chain. Rob, just give me the one where the other podcast promotes us. You better get it right. Okay. In 2024, Friends decided to listen to every one of the greatest 500 albums that decided by Rolling Stone magazine. This resulted in a text chain that celebrated the music, excoriated the order, and led us to making this podcast.

[00:34]We are far from experts. We promise to do almost no research. All opinions are our own unless you disagree. Please sit back and enjoy. Beck did it better. We are all the way up to 176. And from 1990, it's Fear of a Black Planet by Public Enemy. Now, to really set the tone for this, let's watch this clip of Flavor of Love. Oh, no. You found it. After we do the toast, I was like, what is that f***ed up smell in my crib, y'all?

[01:07]Right now, I'm going to leave y'all for a little bit. Then I seen this girl in the back. She kind of went out of frame for a minute. But then she came back. But thanks for coming down. So I just, on this video, she is highlighted. Everybody's black and white. And there's a woman squatting in the back of the crowd while Flavor Flav is talking to them. When she came back. And you know what channel this was on, Russell?

[01:31]VH1. VH1. VH1. This is a VH1 original. She had this look on her face like. Hey, welcome. Cheers, baby. See y'all later. Blessings, all right? Have a good time. So, also Flavor Flav, it should be pointed out, is about 5'2". Something takes off upstairs. Oh, my God. That's a man's face. I smell it. Mmm. By the way, when they said that something ran upstairs, that is a person named something.

[02:04]S-O-M-E-T-H-U-N. Yeah, I think Flav gave them all of their nicknames, right? Oh, Aaron seems to be like a huge fan of. I watched this show. I saw it. Yes, I watched it. Oh, my God, Aaron. Oh, my God. That's why last week I brought it up. You watched a show where somebody pooped on the floor and you're like, I better see how the rest is. I don't remember them pooping on the floor. But then it came down to Hoops and one other lady and then Hoops ended up dating Shaq. Are you serious?

[02:30]Yes. Can you imagine two more different people than Shaq and Flavor Flav? Like, they're the exact opposites. Like, you would see them in a museum of, like, what humans could be on either end of the spectrum. Rob, I am the same amount of Shaq's hideaway as you are Flavor Flav's hideaway. Yes. Look at this. Oh, yeah. Here is a picture of Shaq and Flavor Flav. Look at that. They are not the same. There it is.

[03:00]And they married. Yeah, see, it's right there on the same page. Shaq got married to Hoops. I think they ended up getting divorced, but yeah. Wow. Wow. Russell, see that? Aaron, do you subscribe to, like, Baller's Wives or how do you know all this shit? I watched Flavor of Love. That's it. I haven't watched. I probably haven't seen a reality show since, but I have somehow watched that one. Listen, let's get enough of this. Let's turn off the TV. Welcome to this award-winning podcast. Yeah, we just found out that. About music. We don't need TV. Let's go to the radio.

[03:31]Let's turn that on. We love the radio. Now, you might think to yourself, didn't you guys do a pooping on the floor episode last episode? Isn't this kind of a joke that you're just stealing and redoing? And the answer is yes, we do that all the time. Kid me. What's up, K-Rob? K-R-O-B. Listen, for the new year, what are the boys and I want? Well, something brand new. Like, I don't know, maybe some jokes we haven't told before. Oh. Oh, yeah. All our good ideas are gone.

[04:02]We ran out of good jokes a long time ago, and now we are just repeating. We are getting dumber each episode. That's why we're getting fewer downloads. I don't care because Aaron laughs anyway, even if each of my jokes are just the same. Have you heard the one where I describe my genitals? Talking about the color is starting to get very lame. We need to think of new jokes to start off the new year. All our old bits, they need to disappear. The one where we play maps. Never should have appeared. No one likes it.

[04:30]That's what I hear. This year, we won't make fun of anyone. We say 69. We'll all just move on. We'll find new jokes and no more lingering. I think we've made every possible joke about fingering. Uh-oh, our numbers are down. Because we run the jokes into the ground. We need to try and rebound. We run all our jokes to the ground. Our listenership has started to go down. Because we run the jokes into the ground. These parody songs, Paulie, seem to be going down. We run all of the jokes. We run all of our jokes into the ground.

[05:01]We ruin all of our jokes. We ruin all of our jokes. I should have had something to bow. You got Vincent Price in there. Michael Jackson's Mommy's Milk. And that's why he's laughing about that. But I don't remember what that bit is. My newest using of the espresso machine, Rob, is definitely the steamed Mommy's Milk. Give me some of that Mommy's Steamed Milk. I have for you, Jack. Oh, Beck.

[05:30]That's one of the grossest things I've ever heard, Russell. We just got done with our pooping on the floor episode. I would rather talk about that more than you steaming Mommy's Milk. And I'm not kidding. Don't ever say that again, okay? You're on probation. You're on warning. All right? Listen, this is Beck Did It Better. We're talking about fear of a black planet, a public enemy. I've got four guys here, or three guys with me, who want to talk about it. I've got Russell. I've got Russell. I've got Russell in Minneapolis. Russell, how are you doing? Rob, are you ready? Yes.

[06:02]Aaron, are you ready? Yes. Matt, are you ready? Sure. Let's get it on. Oh, yes. I've got Matt in Minneapolis. Matt, how are you doing tonight? Good, Rob. Just want to let you know it's a week to speak and blame somebody else for these episodes always going so long. Just want to let you know. Listen, we're all looking for the guy who's making the episodes go long. And I've got Aaron out in California. Now, Aaron lately told me, he's been going to the gym and asked women to stop wiping off their equipment.

[06:30]Man, we talked last week about the 50 years of hip hop, and apparently I need to look into whether this is a cynical thing to be a fan of or not. But when Boozy came out and did Wipe Me Down and the whole place knew the lyrics to Wipe Me Down, that was fun. But what I want to say, Rob, is I got so much trouble in my mind. Refuse to lose. Let's talk about Public Enemy. Public Enemy. All right. Listen, let's get right into the voicemail. Us on the Beck line.

[07:04]802-277-BECK. 802-277-2325. It could be anybody's fault as to why these podcasts are going so long. We're not sure who it is. All right. Check it out. Yeah, this is Leo from Minneapolis. I really like the other podcast, Fire Breathing Kittens. They have a lot of great podcasts. They have some quirky concepts, and the whole show is pretty, really funny.

[07:31]Awesome. Wow. I give it a thumbs up. Yes. Wow. So this is the next generation of fans calling into it. Awesome. Amazing. Wow. Unfortunately, that caller did not say it wasn't Russ, so we can't be sure that it wasn't Russ. It could have been Russ. Could have been Russ. Caller seemed to forget a key part of the bit that maybe should have been coached to that caller a little bit better. The caller liked and thought the podcast they were doing, the cross-promote, was funny. What was that podcast? What was that podcast again, Matt? That podcast is Fire Breathing Kittens.

[08:00]It is an actual one-play, one-shot podcast that plays various tabletop role-playing games with a season-long plot. Because there's a beginning and end to every week's story, you can start any episode. Every week has a different combination of the four from the same rotating cast of people. Join Fire Breathing Kittens as they solve detective mysteries, attempt comedic banter, and enjoy friendship. We've kind of given up on most of those, I think, honestly. We are kind of going the other way, where we're starting to drift apart, right? I think we've kind of, this has kind of run its course.

[08:30]What? Okay, so. I think Rosie and I have grown closer and closer as this thing's going on. I agree with that. Yeah, too close. You guys seem to be trying to usurp my power. Rob, you've pulled up the email to the Fire Breathing Kittens podcast, the email they sent you on the swap. At first, this looked like just like a, you know, a copy and paste job, but they've got like the back line in there. They know something about the podcast, but I'm realizing, now that you're about to reply saying we're very interested in the swap.

[09:01]Yeah. Meaning we've already promoted them before we've even agreed to the swap. Well, because the problem was. We've promoted them twice. I had to talk to you guys first and make sure it was kosher with everybody that we were doing this. Yes. Okay, and then I forgot, and then I forgot about it and didn't do any more work for it. So I'm just going to assume this is going to work out okay. Just like most things in my life, I really don't want to deal with it all the way through. I like getting, I like getting everything started. I like going halfway through and then just kind of quitting

[09:30]and letting it drift off onto its own. I noticed, Rob, the Fire Breathing Kittens podcast does have like a write-up, like a three, four sentence write-up. And there seems to be zero mention of Leather Mass in that write-up. Well, our, you know, our official write-up still has, we talk to our single friend. I'll say, okay, so we're kind of living on a bed of lies. Okay, if they knew that that person is now living with this single friend, it seems like our whole podcast is a lie. That might be back after this. That's the holiday gift disaster I just had in the interim week here.

[10:01]Oh, no. Russell, I'm sure it went fine. Okay. Hey, here's your gift. It's some sheets when you go sleep on the couch by yourself because I'm preempted. That's what my friends say I should do. Quote, unquote, friends. Listen, guys, I'm telling you, go listen to that podcast. Show them how powerful we are. Is there any podcast right now that you guys are listening to that you enjoy? You want to shout out? I was recently, my question was recently read

[10:30]on a new podcast, a friend of ours, and it's a pretty good podcast. Aaron, you might like this one. It's called Corporate Confesh. It's about two ladies that are very successful businesswomen. One of them just sold a business and now she's kind of figuring out what she's going to do next. But it's all about navigating the corporate world. And it's taken from some very seasoned people, if you will. A little HR swing to it and just answering questions

[11:00]and how to handle things. And so I think everybody should look up Corporate Confesh and go from there. Rob, you probably could care less. There's probably a bunch of teacher ones out there. Is there a bunch of teacher ones about horror stories and stuff? I'd rather drill a hole in my head than listen to a teacher podcast. I can't imagine anything I'd want to do. Oh, the kids are bad. Oh, the work. Guess what? Same here. I'm even worse at it. I quit things halfway through. I've already talked about this. I'm a teacher. I'm a teacher. I'm terrible. I don't like podcasts. I don't think people should listen to them.

[11:30]What? I'm with you. That's what I was going to say. Why? You know, I started, like, I used to listen to, like, I guess we're done. Aaron, I'm going with you, man. It's just, eventually it's just noise. People talking? I'm not interested. Yeah. Like, I've stopped wearing headphones when I'm walking around the skyway and stuff. Right. It's just, you don't need all, I don't know. I'm with you. Copy. I don't know if I ever told you guys this. Did I ever tell you a week or so ago

[12:01]I went and saw Die Hard in the movie theater? Did I tell you guys that last week or no? Yeah, I feel like you said something about that. No, I don't think you did. But that's going to be a rolling going, right? Oh, no. I got better rolling going than that. Oh, let's hear about Die Hard and then let's hear about Die Hard in the theater. You know what? I had never seen the whole Die Hard. Like, I know, like, Yippee-ki-yay, motherfucker. I know parts of it, but I'd never seen it. Oh, God. Okay. So we went and the movie theater goer and I, I was looking it up and they had three holiday movies

[12:30]at all like the AMC theaters. It was the Polar Express, Elf. Creepy. Polar Express, creepy. And Die Hard. But the other ones were earlier in the day. Die Hard was at night. I was like, we should go see Die Hard. People claim it's a holiday movie. I don't really believe it. I went. Yeah. I think it's a holiday movie. It's a holiday movie. It's a Christmas movie. No question. Totally. He's got a Santa hat on at one point. And he writes, ho, ho, ho, and blood on one of the guys or something like that, right? Yep. Holiday movie. The best about,

[13:00]the thing about Die Hard is that for the second one, Bruce Willis goes, I don't want him to make any jokes this time. And the guys are like, well, no, that's actually like the main thing that people liked about the first movie. He's like, yeah, I'm not doing any. So they had to like trick him into smiling and do all this stuff. Like if you watch the movie, it's very strange how they filmed it. Can I just say this? Yes, sir. Russell, about Polar Express. Aaron was talking about what a weird movie it is with that like dream computer animation. Those movies have all kind of died out. You don't see as many as that weird animation movies.

[13:30]The one field of business that has taken that technology to heights that far surpass anything you dream possible is whatever companies it is that are making these porn games that advertise before porno clips. What? They are animated in that Polar Express way all the time. And they're like, you won't last 10 seconds. And I'm like, who's doing this? Like who's going weird like virtual. I like how you said those porn games as though the rest of us know are experiencing the same. You're not doing it, Rob.

[14:01]Are you talking about Leisure Suit Larry? Do you guys have an ad block on or what? Like how are we not seeing the same things? You live a different online life than we do. The worst porno ads I've been getting lately, and this is just depressing, is it's just like, do you want to meet old women? It's just, do you want to meet old women? And the pictures they have make it very clear. They're not joking. They're not messing around when they use that designation of old women. Are they like on a senior dance team or how old do we talk? Older. Okay, this is like the coach

[14:31]of the senior dance team. All right. This is the Pat Summerall. Oh, no. Of the senior dance team. And these women are old. Pat Summit or Pat Summerall? Pat Summerall. They're both dead. I mean, all right. But you got to admit, when Pat Summerall went before John Mann, you were like, wow. Did not, I lost money on that one. Here's the thing, is that, they say you have to come fuck these older women or you'll be kicked off the site. What? And I'm like,

[15:00]is this the point I'm at where these are the ads I'm getting? Of like. It feels like a point. I've been tractually obligated. Kind of depressing. Wait, I thought we were talking about Die Hard in the theater. So, Russell, what's your review of Die Hard? Russell, do you have a three-word review of Die Hard? It's a Christmas movie. I didn't know if it was, I've heard both sides of whether it's a Christmas movie or not. Four words. It's a Christmas movie. Love it. It's a Christmas movie. There you go. Listen, we need to get into Rolling Gone. You know what else I would say?

[15:30]For someone who's never seen it and I think that's still playing for a few weeks for people that are out there looking for a recommendation, you're going to see Die Hard for the first time. You got to see it in the theater. It was fantastic in the theater. Sounds marvelous, yeah. Yeah, but he's not. Ben from Minneapolis. He takes all your recommendations. Ben from Minneapolis, for sure. The Nakatomi Plaza has never looked so good. Let's see what everybody's up to. It's time for Rolling Gone. Rolling Gone. Oh! Listen. Okay, Rolling Gone. Aaron, how's it going with you?

[16:00]It's going great. Very big, exciting day tomorrow. They're going to pour some concrete in my backyard. So a lot of action going on here today. Are we putting our handprints in? Are we putting initials? Are we doing anything? You have to. Hopefully, yeah, hopefully. It's been a little bit stressful because we're trying to choose the color and, you know, so then you're like making lots of last-minute decisions and then it was, like, it was raining here so, like, the guys there today were, like, pumping water out of the trenches and so, yeah, but we're hopefully,

[16:30]hopefully, maybe put a handprint in, maybe scratch a name into the, yeah. So if you guys were going to, like, what would you, if you could put anything into some concrete that you know is going to be there for the rest of your life, what would you do? You have to have the date. Oh, I like that. You have to have the date or at least the year. There has to be some sort of time thing to bring it back to when it was poured. Love that. Russell, that's great. You're a family of three. I'd have each, I'd have the family handprints, family of three, and then, you know, let your kid every year feel,

[17:00]look how small his hand used to be, right, as they're growing up. Oh, that's beautiful. I'd stick my thumb way down into it and make a hole that was exactly the size of your thumb. Like Jack Spratt or whatever? Yeah. And then people could come by and be like, I wonder how my finger compares to this finger. They kind of test it and put the finger in and out. I think it'd be fun. I love it. Like, the grandkids come along and they're like, oh, they're like, oh, look at Grandpa's thumb hole. Like, there it is. Everybody would know. It's perfect. And then, yeah, French Drain update. Got the French Drain in, dumped rain this week,

[17:31]and then still water in the crawl space. So we're going to have to fix this, get the French Drain fixed, figure out what's going on there. So it's, I thought you guys would enjoy learning that. I don't want to laugh at that, but I kind of got to laugh at that. I'm so shocked that the French Drain Company is a giant scam. Hey, we'll put it, we'll dig a hole around your yard and you're going to get not water. What? How does that work? It makes no sense. You know, the only bigger scam this happened, my mom had this done to her house. She did the heated coils up on the roof so like you don't get ice dams. You flip the switch on

[18:01]and all the snow melts, it goes down the drain and everything. I don't think it helped a damn bit. I will say, in the contractor's defense, I'm not sure I made this clear. The previous owner of this house who did so much work, and if he's listening, you know, Lance, he did an amazing amount of work. He's not listening. He's definitely listening. But one of the things that he did was he did, I'm fairly certain, now that he punched a hole in the foundation to run a drainage line through underneath the house. And so I think, you know,

[18:30]as long as there's a hole in the foundation, there's only so much you can do to keep water out. So we still got to get that fixed. But that was a little bit disappointing this week. I thought the listeners might be interested to hear a French drain update. You don't have to deal with that for the rest of your life, right, Aaron? Oh, my God. And I don't think water damage somewhere in a crawl space over a long term is going to be a big problem. Hey, don't worry about putting that in your seller's disclosure when you want to sell three, four years. from now, right? It's not going to be a problem at all, at all. We're making it to eighth grade. We can walk to school, man. We're here till eighth grade.

[19:00]That's the minimum. I don't think for the next 10 years, every time you hear your kid cough, you're not going to think to her it's black and mold. I'm not concerned. If you think that we didn't get a black mold inspection within the first three months of moving into this place, you don't know us very well. We were clear, I think, for the most part. Babe, could we disrupt the asbestos tile a little bit more? Could we just do a little more disruption to the asbestos? So that's it. I'll send you guys some photos getting a new patio and a retaining wall tomorrow. I'm excited for you.

[19:30]Thank you. Appreciate you. I'll figure out what kind of designs we can put in the concrete. How is it really going with Matt? Good. It's the holiday season. It's the holiday season. It's the holiday for us. The holiday season. You know what I totally forgot last week, Rob? Your song of the week. Yeah, song of the week. So I heard and I wrote down in my little notebook here, which is just my phone, that Jacob Dillon is now 54 years old.

[20:01]It was his birthday December 9th. That seems very old. So we're going with one headlight. Wow. We're going with one headlight because this whole album should be somewhere. This is 501, I think. Right next to Hootie is 502. I mean, this album is really good. It is. If you could go through the world with only the Counting Crows or the Wallflowers, which are you picking? Wallflowers. Wallflowers. Yeah. Wallflowers. Not even close. Ooh. I would say it's somewhat

[20:30]older for me. That's hard. But I'd go with Wallflower. It's an easy decision. It's a pretty easy match. It's a close matchup. I gotta go Counting Crows. I gotta admit. I just can't do Adam Durst's voice for that many years of my life. I think it would start to be great. Yeah. With the cool tones of Mr. Jacob Dillon. How do you get sick of this? Now, wait a minute. Is this Bob Dillon's kid? I never heard that when this song came out. They didn't talk about that one million fucking times. Somebody should try listening. I mean, like for one week,

[21:00]just listen to this album as many times as you can for a week and listen to nothing else and then see where you come out. I gladly, I will take that challenge. I want to hear about it. Yeah. I can't believe that we're all subject. We all are so like easily like tricked into something where we have to do something that tortures us for a period of time. We're like, yeah, that's fun to me. And then we're like, let's get together and do the podcast today. Yeah. Uh, so hanging around your coworkers and one of the fancy things that going on, the memes or whatever

[21:30]is the nicknames for coworkers. I don't know if you've seen this on TikTok and the Instagrams and all that stuff. So I'm going to, I'm going to give you a nickname and you can tell me, maybe we'll start off with one here and I'll see you kind of get what the, what the theme is. So one of the nicknames for somebody would be pothole. Everyone tries to avoid them in the office kind of a thing. Oh, can you imagine if your nickname in your office was pothole? Yeah. Oh, you just go home and look in the mirror. Oh my God.

[22:00]How about this one? Lava lamp. What do you think lava lamp is? Um, more fun when they're lit up. Uh, looks good, but not very bright. Oh, Oh, you know what? I got to say this. I wish I would be described that once in my life. Like I'm not, I'm not ever like described as like the super smart dude. Yeah. But I've also never described as like the really looks good guy. You know, it would be nice if I were, if I were described once as the lava lamp guy, I would take it proudly and love it.

[22:30]You see somebody, you see a girl turn to Russell and go, Hey, I don't need to listen to this dumb jock anymore. Russell, you just see Russell get a huge erection. He's like, yeah, what's it? Six to 12 to six, whatever it is. Six to midnight. Six to seven 30 sometimes. How about blister? What do you think blister is? What would be the nickname? It gives you a rash if you spend the night with them or something. Oh God. Only appears after the hard work is done. Oh, blister. Sounds like middle management.

[23:01]Deck chair. Always folds under pressure. Deck chair. My mom worked with somebody. She, for the whole career, she called no pants Lance because he never made a decision. There you go. Your mom, we should get your mom on it. How about a 007? shaken zero motivation zero skills seven bathroom breaks a day

[24:05]aaron imagine you as a middle manager if you had to deal with like disciplining a uh co-worker for calling one of their co-workers pothole or foreskin oh man be hilarious that's what hr is for that would be easier actually that like that would actually be easier than some of the things i've had to do like it's very cut and dry like hey did you call your co-worker foreskin like you can't do that like that would be much easier than like some of the gray areas okay the whole play i'm not sure

[28:04]picture of those socks yeah six hours ago you can take them off now all right man let me take these off right now and i'm gonna use my wake up don't wake up your kids just do it yourself i'm gonna use my feet because if i bend down to do it i think it'd make noises that would not be great rob is taking those off i gotta save this um rob is the only person i know the the only person i know where he'll text like a group of 15 people and talk about his friend suzanne like i've never

[28:33]once seen that send a text where he's like well i'm going to hang out with my friend rob like bart today like aaron has never said i'm going to hang out with my friend matilda like no one ever ever i've never seen one person i've ever texted with i've never seen a person i've ever texted with talk about how they're hanging out with like another friend who's not in the group but rob does it a lot she's a celebrity she was on the podcast that's yeah we need to know what's going on with suzanne yeah that's true plus it's almost like maybe that's the only person i hang out with because because they're the only one who'll give you free fresh socks yeah you get

[29:04]new socks when you i mean guys that's that's friendship you you do bring her up off and you are hanging out is is her uh significant other does she hang out with you guys too yeah or is it with us for sure okay so she so she doesn't she's she's okay with the amount of time you guys spend together and stuff like this she's annoyed by me because every time we get yes she is annoyed by me yeah rob i know you might be in the minneapolis area in the next few weeks or something i was

[29:35]gonna say you should stop by but like if rob came to my house and was like my feet smell so bad can i borrow some socks i'd be like just fucking leave honestly i would just be like bad host bad host i'm gonna say right now you're a bad host a good host would share their socks with me what would you do keep the clean socks well i mean i i i've got a lot of socks because like i think i've told you right like if i was rich i'm coming over socks every day every day new pair of socks every

[30:00]day so it's it's almost it's it's a i got a i got a large sock drawer so i have plenty that i could just where do you keep your small ones uh right next to him oh large sock drawer i see hey aaron you see the mix-up i made there i thought he was talking about the size of the sock drawer the socks he was talking about the drawer the size of the drawer yeah matt would you give him a pair that you like or would you give him a pair that you never wear no because i gotta wear like white athletic socks anymore so you can just have a pair of those or something i don't even own them i've

[30:31]got i'm not taking it they're gone yeah no yeah not not one pair if they're the no-show ones with the shoes i'm not taking them from you no they're yeah i don't want those ankle size or whatever i'm turning down that free gift don't need them okay socks need to cover my ankles did it work okay smells great i'm telling you guys friendship okay and when i'm coming over russell if you know you're wearing another woman's socks right now i don't know i just assumed she knew i didn't even occur to me to tell her did i tell her oh yeah i did i did tell her kind of an eclectic guy so

[31:04]like those socks i mean nobody who knows you is gonna what you gotta just i mean they have what do they have rainbows on them and christmasy or listen i am getting my coffee mugs on the public i am getting my socks for my friends okay my life is fine okay it's not chaos at all times do you need money like are you okay you need money sure i need money great we returned them no she made it very clear that was not an option they were socks are not coming

[31:33]back yeah that was her one stipulation it's so you know what's so funny about it it's like she's so disgusted by you that she doesn't want them back but you took them from her which makes me think if she was at your house and had smelly feet she would not borrow a pair of your socks walk me through this logic here what's going on she she gave you the socks and she's like i don't

[32:01]want them back meaning she doesn't want anything that have touched your feet okay if she came to your house and she had disgusting feet and you said hey you can have a pair of my socks she would probably say no i don't know if i would give away my socks okay because they are in pairs they're like colored pairs and i like all the designs i don't know if that would work out the same rolling going russell how's it going with you rolling on things you're going really well last week i told you guys how i um i gave gifts to the festive person in my house and myself and

[32:38]those gifts were records i went back to the record store this week i can't get enough it's espresso martinis and record stores are my jam right now which record store um let me check this is the holiday record holiday edition by the way yeah can't hear you guys jingle bells are too loud

[33:04]i went to cheapo records cheapo records right off the street there you go cheap okay yeah i know cheapo it's a big store right and matt i believe matt by being correct you said cheapo records right off the street and i went to cheapo records right off the street you still have to exit and go east up north a few blocks then cross over 35 to get to cheapo you cannot just take a left exit and go over i'm thinking i i was thinking of the electric fetus the whole time yeah i think you may have been mistaken once on your maps up closer to

[33:34]franklin yep you know it's a bummer as i'm doing the holiday edition this is coming out like february 3rd yes this this is the record store i've told you guys it's my favorite because they've got the new records sunday monday through it's you can always go to the record store if you want to go to the record store you can go to the record store and always find the new stuff that came in and so i was gonna buy um i thought it would be fun to get a few records as a gift for the festive person in my house um there were two i was specifically looking for can i tell you what those two were uh yeah the audiobook of the

[34:03]kama sutra now you ruined my my valentine's day gift rob this has come out before that so we might have to edit that out fields of gold by sting oh the fields of bar so there were two records i was looking for i'll tell you what they were when i got to the record store because they were both there i was shocked i got multiple records in like the used bins that i i was shocked that they had these so i ended up getting six records and i i packed

[34:31]them in two yeah in two different christmas packages which have not been open so i'm i'm breaking the news to you guys on what i got so one of them is is a gift to the festive person in her house not from me but i'm not listed as it's a two so the three that i got i'm saying this is a gift for for her because i think she would like these records i'm not even trying i'm saying oh i think you'll like these these are a gift these sound a lot like records that russell wanted to

[35:03]me this is what this sounds like to me that's the next package that's the next package yeah the first package consisted of madonna the immaculate collection oh wow wonderful one is that a four four lp deal or is it must be right i think it's yeah yes sir oh yeah you know what one of the reasons i had to go to the four sides sorry double lp four sides or skin guys hey just this woman at work sometimes she gets caught in my zipper yeah

[35:36]hey this woman at work gets caught you know the lining in a swimsuit when it has the little holes in it yeah sometimes it gets caught in there yes yes and yep i mean yeah it still feels like this could be a potential hr violation thank you for coming in today please put your pants back on here you're the seriest hr person ever so my tattoo says hr violation

[36:00]not on the right cheek the left one so i got the madonna it's the immaculate collection so what i want i was this was kind of my my go-to this was the record i thought would be a great gift um it's got all these hits i thought the the festive person in my house would enjoy it i went to buy it's got borderline the best it does madonna i was thinking about you i was gonna buy it online on amazon and also like a prayer the best song by madonna ever but when i went to buy it on amazon and maybe aaron or matt you guys can help me your record guys the only thing i could find online was called a seven inch

[36:34]record i think that's like a 45 right like that's not like a full record is it yeah i seven inch would only have one song on it so i panicked and i did not want to order this online because i was like i don't know what that's gonna be i mean i've got my own seven inches to deal with i don't need another seven inch record another seven inches are you no wait a minute are you serious no stop was it a collection yeah with like no no are you serious is your cock seven inches long i'm serious i swear to god russell and i'm not kidding i find out later your cock is seven

[37:08]inches long i'm six feet tall i'm gonna be so bummed it's really gonna bum me out if you've got a monster dong and we've been making these jokes all along and i thought we were together on them rob i've got two inches of height on you if you double that that's probably what i got on you on the other end of the road wow but so i was like i can't order this online

[37:30]and get like some of these 45s i need to know what i'm getting so i'm like i'm gonna go to the record store so i get i walk in and in the new section of the record store i'm like i'm gonna go to the record store within the last week that record was in that section i immediately grabbed it up you have to have it right yeah it's meant to be the next one i got this was also the other one i was going to buy online i went i found it at the record store used i could not believe they had this one it's the miseducation of lauren hill oh man wow you're on fire where did they go

[38:02]you know you better watch out this is a good gift russell yep not gonna lie it's a great gift so the third one that went in this package with madonna and uh lauren hill i told you guys last week or a few weeks ago we did a piano piano uh dueling pianos thing and the the uh dueling piano person that was with me tried to

[38:33]request a song that was inappropriate for that type of show paradise by the dashboard oh i thought i got her the record i got her bad out of hell yeah you got her bad out of hell if you if you give someone the gift madonna immaculate collection the miseducation of lauren hill and bad out of hell is that that's pretty prime isn't it that's a great trifracta this was another one used in the new within the week someone had given that

[39:03]who would give that up who would give up those records it feels like that person out of oh wait and singers that were all equally attracted to all sex symbols in their own yeah thank you so that was the one i i have wrapped as a gift for the festive person in my house there was one other one there were three other records that i found there that i was like i have

[39:30]to get these and i was like well we can enjoy these together but they're not really this is kind of a gift for us i would say and not a gift for the festive person can i share those records with you guys as well yes russell and but don't lie to us about the cock stuff earlier but i do while the music's not playing i want to say that i feel like this person should wipe you up like it just feels like they should really lock it down well they're gonna have to they're gonna have to pay for some jewelry oh my god if russell gets a huge diamond ring

[40:00]i would laugh so hard um he's he said yes i can see your instagram right now he said yes hey yes we might have a picture of his now just picture russell's hand and it's got a ring it's all like close up in a picture it's gotta be oh my god she's she's behind him yeah pictures oh it's so good here are the three albums that i got um and i gave i wrapped them i gave them to us first one

[40:32]dr dre the chronic used available at the record store beautiful wow great the second one matt i thought you would appreciate this one it's pearl jam versus there you go how much was that one um all of these were at about the the 18 to 20 range none of these were like two dollar records they were all you had to pay for them gotcha what else is on versus with daughter i can't remember now

[41:02]elderly woman behind no there's like there's like four four crushing hits that even me and my daughter have heard of it's not like i like pearl jam but i don't know all their songs but there are there's four or five songs that are immediate hits animal daughter okay go some people like go the third one i got um i went i told you guys i went and saw this uh an impressionist of this

[41:35]artist the other day i got elvis the sun sessions the complete sun sessions i know man i know we kind of shit on that when we we listened to it a few years ago you know some of those songs it wasn't for us but still that's like an all-time collection right oh yeah that's a good one it's great music to listen to for sure i think we didn't like it as a entry to the list but to have it around home and so what do you guys think of my strategy i thought the three i gave as a gift to

[42:01]the festive person in my house was correct and the three that i gave to us together was the right way to divide that up what do you guys think oh brilliant i mean i think you've nailed it i mean madonna meatloaf you gotta give that to the ladies so here's the question so i go up and i check out on these if you've got these six records how do you put them in order you've got the chronic versus sun sessions bad out of hell madonna or lauren hill what goes on top when you're checking out

[42:31]oh i bad on the health yeah yeah yeah for sure on top pretty perverted i decided to go elvis on top with the chronic under it i wanted to be there some sort of like i was not expecting that after the elvis one you're identifying as a music nerd now i like that yeah i like that so that was my that was my experience at the record store and the way i would i'm doing gifts i would get the bat out of hell and be like hey you know that song dashboard lights

[43:01]wait till i tell you what it's about i was gonna ask one one other thing that i was looking through all the other record sections and i had a moment where i i couldn't remember they have this one they're mad i almost got it for you but i wasn't sure if we've talked about it before they have scandal with the warrior on it and i almost got it for you but i didn't know if you had it pull that one up rob it's so good every time we listen to this

[43:31]see it nailed it though i wrote q r r i r o nailed it and it came right up scandal the warrior comes right in the direction what is this a full album or is it like an a and a b i'm not a good it was a newer pressing of it it was new wrapped and everything and i almost got it and then i had the moment maybe this happened to aaron or matt you guys i don't know if i'd already bought it or not i didn't know if i had it and i didn't want to buy a second one yes i could have sworn you did buy i got a number of double albums that i bought twice

[44:01]oh wow i thought you had bought this one russell you might be right rob i don't know and we listened to it once i thought we did for sure i could probably find it easily if someone would put the records back in alphabetical order the way that i have them slotted okay russell here's what you're gonna do okay that's true you're gonna just sit down and say listen no can we delete that out please delete it out wait no delete it out please delete it you can trust me russell hey uh rob real quick google the warrior on it i don't know if you've ever bought

[44:31]your charles barkley nba video wow that's from like we should do a video breakdown barkley guys don't watch my typing i organized my records by whichever one i played last is on the right either one of those are great rap that the second one go up go up up second one this one there you go that's it what is this it's a cd this is the video yeah and it's just highlights to this song

[45:01]born in a small town they had like the 10 nba stars with each like an 80s rock song this is so great this is so good it must be called nba super show we used to watch this at rosemont basketball camp when i was a kid jeez it's easy to forget how fun he was look at that hairline too yeah this is the kind of shit too where you show your kids and they're

[45:30]like oh man this is dumb and you're like who are you no it is not just rule that's the walls of bang bang 799 russell vhs on ebay i can watch the superstars oh wow our podcast is bad because we're just watching and listening to better things than our podcast at all times and we're like telling people hey go consume this other media that's really good off and go watch speaking of better media what's that podcast that recommended us again before they heard about the

[46:00]shitting on the floor fire breathing kittens everything kittens okay is this a music podcast well didn't uh did matt go he did oh yeah oh did everybody go oh okay yeah well this is guys guess what i got news for you it's a music podcast let's talk about the album it's time for oh let's talk about the album listen we were talking fear of the black planet fear of a black planet by uh public enemy this is their third album okay it's uh chuck d and

[46:30]flavor flay with the bomb squad of course this is the first album without professor mcgriff who had gotten kicked out for making some statements that got him in trouble uh so he got fired from the band this is a pre-sample clearance album okay chuck d said he used maybe 150 to 200 samples on uh on this just full of them right it's like it's so fun to try to play spot the sample on here but it's hard to keep a couple good ones i mean there's every once in a while you get some nuggets or like holy yeah like i can't believe that's on there yeah but it doesn't sound like so many other songs i've heard of it but it's a good

[47:00]like so many other sampled albums this sounds so full to me like so lush like it's coming at you from all angles great great great great headphone album for sure uh this was talking about racism at the time kind of more taking what they did with um with a takes a nation of million kind of expanding on that getting getting better at their craft talking about social conscience social politics of black experience in the early 90s and basically i think one of the best things i saw is they said public enemy's influence on hip-hop with this album in 1990 is the is basically the equivalent of the influence that bob dylan george clinton bob marley had like

[47:34]it just turned this whole you know we've talked about bands that inspire whole branches of music and i think this album is definitely one of them so let's get into fear of a black planet after nation of millions yes chronologically yes and nation of millions is what number three on the list now two how high was it i think no it was three way up there right yeah i think it was three yeah contract on the world love jam now i gotta tell you guys one of my favorite parts

[48:03]a public enemy is on the wheels of steel it's 15 terminator x terminator x so good and the fact his name terminator x is fucking awesome it rules and i'll say it again look at a picture of terminator x he also fucking rules yeah some individual concern brothers gonna work it out uh-oh where'd it go this was they literally sampled themselves three times in the sun

[48:36]oh yeah they did do that didn't they that that rules they actually made this basis around a willie hutch song from the mac soundtrack called brothers gonna work it out oh interesting i think willie hutch also provided the sample for international players but like i've never heard willie hutch otherwise this is a nice tune

[49:04]oh russell are you gonna have to get a willie hutch record now you might need a willie hutch record no you know what i was gonna ask aaron um i thought maybe you could help me with this the one band that i come across in the record store all the time and they've got a lot of records is the ohio players is there oh yes is there a record i should get like i know that they've been sampled by hip-hop artists of thousands of times but i don't know what their hits are like if i'm

[49:32]thumbing through the records which one i need to pull out of there i think you want fire i think that's their i think there's an album called fire that would be the biggest one of theirs but yeah there were years where they were considered the best band in the world like them and earth, wind, and fire boom correct they did love roller coaster yeah love roller coaster is such a good one uh incident at 66 actually check out but that's from the album honey go i think that uh album

[50:02]cover is kind of nice yeah oh that's okay that's maybe the one you want so aaron has shown and russell i think this is a good gift for her okay i mean it's erotic it's it's a naked woman this might be a gift for us we found it we found the one you need what's this thing by the christmas tree uh this is a naked woman with a what do you call that honey dipper like a it's like what's on the honey nut cheerios box

[50:31]right like that i call it a honey dipper yeah and she is holding the jar of honey and dipping the honey into her mouth okay it's it rules actually look it up ohio players honey is good for your immune system there's got to be an ohio players sample in this album somewhere right the somewhere in all of this noise and you've had you've activated man collage on here incident 66.6 they used actual listening to this announcer spell things like oh these are real calls yeah it's fun what a

[51:01]fucking nerd why would anybody listen to a guy that sounds like that about what lyrics should be in music i mean can you imagine you can listen to that fucking nerd or you can hear a band that's got a guy named terminator x in it like who are you gonna listen to yeah fuck yeah you're gonna listen to terminator x 9-1-1 is a joke love this song i thought for sure we were getting this was the parody of rob calling 9-1-1 when he was a youth oh it was a bummer i told my 9-1-1 story already sadly this is still an issue now 30 years later

[51:32]but it is amazing that this is they they chose really specific examples of systemic issues and were able to highlight them i mean that's the thing right we talked about it last time but flavor slave you know now you associate him with women pooping on the floor but he's a legit genius like wait yeah hold on hold on was it confirmed that she pooped on the floor on the show oh 100 i didn't want to show the rest of the clip i thought that was confirmed yes why would she do

[52:01]that see matt she should have joined our group where you took the pulled the credit card she could have gotten off scott free i guess all publicity is good publicity i don't know about that can i tell you guys something i was coming home the other day jenny made me stop at the store which is like an extra hour my stomach was acting up and on the subway station i'm wearing my noise cancelling headphones and somebody looks over at me and i realized that a stomach gurgle i made i went like that out loud i forgot i wasn't like in my apartment by myself and they look at me and i

[52:36]go i had to like look at my phone like i was like i had to pretend like it's disgusting welcome to the terror dome the best title ever for a song it's a great title i mean they're just they're stoppably cool this is a johnny i have a hot take on this song it's a hip-hop take

[53:00]i think i'm gonna blow aaron's mind with this tape i'm ready i think this song is so disappointing and here's the reason there is a song by charlie two and a from the jurassic five yeah called coming through okay and when you listen to coming through the first line it is welcome to terror dome so i've heard this song so many times before but i don't i'm not a hip-hop aficionado i don't know all the songs but this was when i saw the name welcome to terror dome i

[53:34]thought it was this song which i love and it turns out it's not the song i love i think this version is better it's not the same song but he's quoting that lyric obviously but check out the beginning of this song charlie two and a welcome to terror coming through check this out at the beginning you might have to go like 10 seconds got the big deep voice he's the best he's my favorite rapper out there is charlie tuna charlie tuna just give it a second am i dumb he's from jurassic five yeah you're like you're

[54:07]gonna like him check this out wait you will love it you probably saw him at carlton college probably did welcome to terror dome i'm your host the friendly nape that is the deep voice rapper i'm all about it so when i when i saw welcome to terror dome i was like oh

[54:32]it's got to be that song and then it wasn't i was like shit it's the jurassic five guy you were spoiled i love to hear how people's minds connect dots though that's nice russell was spoiled by the multiple terror dome songs that he knows meet the g that killed me he dropped to have a voice that low he must be at least six feet tall there's always like five dead what if his balls were like two little marbles that would blow your mind right like just tiny tiny tiny little things it's not the proper deep deep voice to balls ratio no it does

[55:06]it's oh you got yeah they've got a parliament sample in here polly wanna crack a atomic dog uh then we have anti-n-word machine i i thought the name of this one was clever because it's talking about censoring music on the radio and they're saying oh yeah i bet you want to censor us yeah i mean let's do the samples here guys all samples i bought this cd i probably bought it

[55:38]like freshman year of college like when i was home went to the mall and it it freaked me out man it's definitely so they're really you know i think that um it's so interesting to me that they're from long island because they they share that with de la soul and they i never thought of those two groups as being related but they do have the sort of art school approach to things where

[56:03]they're going for the full you know all four elements of hip-hop and they really respect the dj and let the dj do his thing in a way that now like we heard kendrick last week and kendrick would never just like let beats run without rapping over him for as long as they do and they're really going for a more holistic you know piece of art but for me when i heard it i was like i'm not sure this is intended for me this is this is a lot aaron you said the four elements of hip-hop what are they uh earth water air art so honestly if you're the guy if you were the guy that got

[56:36]hard you'd have to be so mad right like your friend's doing fire and shit the other one was like moving rocks around you're like heart it's like oh what do you even do what the hell are you talking about it's what we forget because because we have the planet we associate hip-hop with oh wow we associate hip-hop with gonna take pollution down to zero private sector play we don't know this shit all right aaron what are the four of us we associate hip-hop with rapping

[57:05]right like that's what we think about because it's what has gone to the forefront but it wasn't always the case and the four elements if i get this right are break dancing graffiti emceeing and djing so i think public enemy thought of themselves as embracing all the parts of the culture and so the dj gets the dj gets his chance to do his thing on their albums more than other albums necessarily gotcha i'd be mc escher burn hollywood burn

[57:34]so i you know i assumed that this was after rodney king you know but this came out like 89 90 right yeah 91 yeah so it took me a little i did a little research we promised to do no research but i did a little research and i think it's even better that i knew it was before rodney king it's essentially more of just a commentary on not filling roles for african-american actors and movies and all that stuff yeah

[58:03]it's an unbelievable uh just a snapshot in time from 1989 what was going on and a track with ice cube and big daddy kane on it together i mean come on this is in the put it in the i'll tell you you know the most amazing thing about big daddy kane his chicken finger recipe is so good no no no it's it's it's not even close to as good as his

[58:31]choke slam and tombstone pile driver oh which would rival the undertakers wow but what people don't know is that he was a dentist before all of that oh my oh my god i'm aroused i'm aroused who was a dentist i missed that part i did it i did it dds dr isaac okay okay i see where we're going i want to talk about robocop and sting we got you yeah we're here for you power to the people

[59:01]somebody said this was equivalent to a james brown song which i thought was kind of an interesting set of horns it's the mixing they're quoting parliament again because he quotes bob gunn in this one i mean this is so cool you guys are these commercial hits like are these were these on the radio do you guys remember these songs growing up on the radio or that were you into them as kids or no you can't put burn

[59:31]hollywood burn i'm not asking about that one i'm asking is there a commercial hit on this album or 9-1-1 is a joke is the big one yeah yeah it's it's huge yeah maybe welcome to the pterodome was on mtv i mean fight the power we're gonna get to it but that's for the for the spike lee movie right like i mean that's yeah they kind of go hand in hand to why it was big but i don't think anything nothing's commercial it's all underground it's all you know sure this is not going to be

[60:01]commercialized what they're saying who stole the soul but do you know these songs outside of when we listen to this album now or not uh just from being in movies right like fight the power and some of these nine i mean i think everybody who knew 9-1-1 is a joke in your town i mean it seems like everybody did but it wasn't from being on the radio it was just from somebody saying oh my god you gotta hear this song fear of a black planet titular track aaron you should always point those out players are on this song

[60:34]i have to say i had my first dream about the podcast the other night first one first all right wait wait wait wait who is who is in front and who is in back the dream involved me and aaron oh yeah and we had a disagreement unfortunate to say oh man we had a disagreement over whether someone was

[61:01]carlos correa the twins player or chick correa the jazz artist like we saw them out i don't know i don't i can't quite put it all together i just know there was an argument over carlos correa versus chick correa wow that was a dream you had yeah it's fucked up that's a real thing that could happen i saw the chick correa album that's in the record store at cheapo and he's got there's like 20 albums there and i know there's a song i want that was on the list once but

[61:31]i can't remember the song so i didn't know what album of chick correa is to get then i went home i went to sleep i had stress about chick correa an argument with aaron over chick correa versus carlos correa i don't know no did you was a scientologist i think he made it to like the top levels of scientology oh we're talking the fetons are getting my way when i'm trying to make music over there in your in your dream did you tell aaron to get the fuck out of here get the fuck out of here yeah there's no way that jazz artist was getting overpaid by the twins

[62:03]if aaron was in my dream there's a 100 chance he'd be in his bathtub sopping wet in a pair of jeans that's how i'd picture him every time i already know it it's the one way i think about aaron all the time every day revolutionary generation i said tattoo dripping wet as he said standing up i gotta say when i saw aaron's picture without a shirt on you have a lot of tattoos you have

[62:30]way more tattoos than i thought i have more than i can count now i think yeah so for those of you at home listening did that blow your mind a little bit does that blow your mind a little bit that the guy who's just talking about a french drain also has so many tattoos he can't count them i want you to think about that the aaron i knew only had one slash two tattoos one he has some sort of tiger on his shoulder blade that i remember that he had like as a freshman in college like he had that shit way before other like he was a

[63:01]young tattooed guy was that when i turned eight this too i i got one when i turned 18 yeah and then i took a break for a long time but yeah now i have quite a few and i believe it says if i could be right this shows how good of a friend i believe it might say trust in in uh foreign language that was the goal i'm i've never checked with anyone who actually speaks their language but that was the goal so russell yes you are a good friend can you imagine your freshman year of college it's ironical your freshman year of college your roommate shows up tiger fucking tattoo on his back

[63:33]he's 18 he like got this in high school he's a fucking badass and then he turns to you and he goes you know what kind of limes are actually best for making a key lime pie it's actually the archer kind of lime and this is and you're like what the fuck you'd be like what is college like what's going on you don't crumple up the paper you twist it i reuse all my plastic bags what you have a fucking tiger tattoo on your back the other tattoo that i know aaron has is uh one of our vegas trips we showed up and he was clear he

[64:05]had an iowa tattoo on his forearm and so because we're just assholes and dipshits every guy on our vegas trip took a pen and drove our home drew our home state on our on our forearm if i remember correct yeah yep i think rob drew both minnesota and vermont if i remember correctly there's no way rob still knows how to draw the state of vermont it's a v it's easy yeah it's a v for vermont i didn't know that

[64:31]i think that's also the same trip where the iowa double down came in oh come on there's no such thing as that what now man what is an iowa double down we should probably do this okay picture this you're sitting at a table you've got a hard 12 which means you've got either a 10 to two two sixes something potentially a seven and a five you know anything however you want to do 11 and a one dealer's got a six no that's a soft one rob rob i know you have a hard problem with the soft and hard but that's a soft 12 is it is it in there that's why i asked the dealer is my

[65:04]bed in and so you feel it the dealer's got a six so all all blackjack books tell you anytime dealer's got a six you just hold it right if you let them if you let them stay yeah and and to be honest if you did anything else you're insane right yeah people get pissed wasn't it jake from new alms it was jake yeah and he he said double down and the deal everybody looks up and goes what and it was one of those things where he just didn't want to so when you double down

[65:33]you get one card and that's it for the hand but you double the amount of money you bet on it so the thought is he's going to get a 10 and go to 26 it's an instant bust terrible bad 22 you're putting more money out on a bad hand you're putting money out to lose when they've got a loser and i used to do this as a kid and so i believe i did it and jake from new alms said to do that you've got to be so stupid you're from iowa we call that an iowa double down isn't that right yeah i don't even know that he i mean i think he said it so authoritatively as though

[66:05]it was an actual thing oh yeah and it's not this is and i tried we did it for a couple years and now when we're all playing together it's contractually obligated you do it and then you have to say i am doubling and then the dealer always says you're doubling you say yes i'm doubling a hard 12 against the six and the dealer yells they have to announce it to the pit boss because it is so fucking stupid okay and then

[66:30]when you win everybody goes see you know it sounds great but i tried to get it into wikipedia because aaron's always claiming that it's not it's not a thing and so i submitted all this stuff and my application or email got denied so apparently you can't just throw whatever you want in wikipedia man i was wondering why the last time i went to the main screen and said hey can you donate two dollars and 50 cents we got these fuckers trying to put all this shit on wikipedia we gotta edit it out of here doubling down yeah so i was trying to get it so that next time aaron

[67:00]said it's not a real thing i could say look it up look it up right there you know but folks let's all try to get it on wikipedia if we all work together if you could give me that um the ads for that old lady website maybe i could show them how i double a hard 12 gotta be i know i've edited that out what i know i've edited that out i have to have so now guess what use what are you talking about russ i know what you're doing that's where i'm gonna edit back in sick i don't know what you're talking about old lady website what it's like i mean i've heard about the ads before a porno movie

[67:32]but it's so you don't want to you know based on rob's recently recent edits it wouldn't surprise me if you did screw that up that's fine that's like christmas i made a website where i put all the ads after the porno movies i went broke one of the worst plans turns out nobody i better watch this ad too yeah it's everybody's favorite it's kind of like this

[68:04]podcast reading system people stick around to the end yeah you know i can't do nothing for you man can't do nothing for you man another flavor flay bit if you guys think this episode's going too quick i can do mike carlos crea chick crea a bit again wow russell nobody's nobody's run that back speaking of editing this shit out reggae reggae jacks reggie jacks

[68:30]reggie jacks now jacks of course jacks of course makes you think of the mortal kombats remember when they got later and they started adding new people and you're kind of like they're not legit right we're talking legit mortal kombat people are sub-zero luke hang johnny cage right kind of wild to hear them over such a laid-back right and this is jarring yeah what aaron where does like chuck d rank on the all-time rappers

[69:03]is he like is he more known for kind of his where he's coming from from a like social commentary perspective is he up there for like skills or not yeah i don't think he makes a lot of people's sort of top five lists for skills but he's so authoritative and so important and said things in such a way that i think he makes people's all-time top list for being important the rapper that he is yeah but yeah i don't think he was like he's not like a rakim type where he changed the way rap was

[69:35]delivered but i think what he was saying and his the authority in his voice is what stands you know his voice immediately when you hear it right yes it's very distinct i like this i like the sequel to this uh bride of chuck d all right leave this off your fucking chest charts you wouldn't want to hear this song your doctor's office hey don't leave that off my charts i do wonder i don't know when people listened to this music in 1990 was it in it was in their

[70:08]cars was it at parties it you know people who were really into this like i wonder when they put it on because it's harsh you know it's intense probably a kid's birthday party oh yeah probably all camping probably all trying to go to sleep uh b-side wins again you're just trying

[70:30]to build a little never mind war at three three one at 33 one three isn't this 33 and a third like the speed of a record oh karen i think i'm dumb i think this is gonna be true i believe the equivalent of 128 beats per minute rob 128 you ever got up that high listen that's a young man's game i gotta get to the ads at the end

[71:03]slow down okay think about garbage i was reading that chuck d wanted to get to 155 beats per minute 155 rob 155 155 155 hands per minute you gotta have a rust-sized cock have two hands going on they liked it fast i think that's the other thing russell when you ask about mcs like this this is a 20 track album we're we're dropping the needle wherever and so much of what we hear is the music the samples the sound

[71:30]collages the assault on your eardrums he's not trying to take center stage on every song the way other mcs did later yeah you're right final count of the collision between us and the damned what what a title of a song title i mean that should be a painting telling you guys walking around new york listening to this album i felt like the biggest badass of all time you you feel awesome listening to this walking around and because of that we're going to do a list of the greatest songs ever with nine words in the rap song i'm just kidding

[72:07]i'm not going to do that impressive that would be look at look at how funny eric thinks that you hit him that would be russell i wonder if you can find one you waited till track 19 of the second show of the night nine words fucking funny nine words in the hip-hop song

[72:35]you guys only want to know how many i got rid of because the was it in and i didn't realize it it was bad russ is russ is looking at a song that has a parentheses for the ninth word and he's like i don't know if this counts we've already done a list like this i'm also realizing that maybe people don't love the list because i gave you guys the opportunity to take it tonight and no one seemed to take the opportunity i my kid doesn't go to aftercare on thursdays anymore so it's a it's a short day for

[73:05]me we could do we could do a list there there's a there's a couple lists with the number nine in the title number nine do a list of the best songs number nine in the title number nine oh now look who wants a longer number nine number nine oh boy we got man let's go you know what i got one right now there you go i'm gonna drop it on you right now song in a while

[73:31]now i don't like to repeat songs on list so i won't oh this song is so good nine to five has nine in the title these are our top nine songs that have nine in the title i got this movie confused with the movie she was in with james woods where she was on the radio you guys remember that movie or not is that rhinestone no

[74:01]holy shit did you guys see did you guys see the size of deli bars chest straight straight talk straight talk from 1992 99 luffalo man that has nice title off the dome i've got a list you can keep going off the dome and i've got a car all right we need a we need a left hand now can i tell you this man i saw this song

[74:31]and i realized i thought it was uh a song called uh nine nine nine the number of the beast but it's actually a song called six six six number of the beast i was reading it upside down it's because you were in that 96 situation i was interesting fact about this song this song actually inspired the lady to shit on the floor in the show flavor flavor of love or whatever it's called flavor flavor of love flavor of love

[75:04]okay man what's another one 99 problems by jay-z oh that's a good one girl problems better do the clean version if you haven't girl problem problems i feel bad for you son i got 99 problems but it ain't one i got the rap patrol on the man that was a great list wait they bleeped out one more one more bleeped out because you like this rob aaron have you never been in the world of like the super christian censored rap music

[75:34]wow you have to listen to it sometime it's a wild where they censor everything you can find it's wild number nine try one more number eight 19 by steely dan oh oh it needs some steely dan tonight yeah some steely dan i just figured you want to hear a little steely dan so there you go this is it just feels good i believe we did miss

[76:00]um i know we've covered this song before so i realized why my man skipped it from acts as bold as love jimmy hendrix six was nine there's six was nine in the time in the sky oh it's pretty good i remember the words to it refuse to shine this is good all right any more man

[76:30]there any german songs they would have nine in the title maybe this mic on honey my mic is why we cannot have nice things by taylor swift that's got nine it's got nine uh words in the title this is why we got another whiff after this nice thing i don't like correcting matt's list but we're gonna have to make a correction here oh swift in there it was so nice throwing big parties this is a nine-word song man well if you take can't

[77:12]you know what i mean like that's what they don't say

[77:30]you know what i mean like that's what they don't say you know she's got a bag down a bed broken vine none of those guys are playing those guitars we we could have been a band like in the 50s right like none of us have that good of hair look at the hair on those guys none of us have that nope i'm yeah i'm out okay one one more one more one more only because it's the pet shop boys

[78:00]you only tell me you love me when you're drunk and we gotta get some pet shop boys in here that's actually got nine there you go that's that boy you found a website that has the title of songs how long they are well there's one that's like long song titles of seven or more wow let's go to the middle of this there is a website on spindiddy which has 180 plus songs with numbers in the title it's kind of a nice tune you guys have made me feel like my life is actually really together

[78:38]so i want to thank you guys so much i'm feeling great actually all the stuff i think that's messed up it feels great now it feels normal oh man great job man i'm gonna save us from ourselves that was that was a top two list i've heard all night i mean just a list like a freestyle list probably a top nine list way to go guys a top nine list russell just dropped that on my head

[79:02]i'm supposed to not talk about it top nine list fallout boys got a song called our lawyer made us change the title of the song so we wouldn't get sued some good song titles here next up we've got uh final count no fight the power of course spike lee basically said hey i need some music for my film do the right thing fight the power comes out

[79:31]so good i mean what a perfect ending to this album aggressive loud great this sums up their whole sound yeah i mean not ambiguous at all strong of an ending to an album as we've had right there might be i agree i mean this is a huge hit it fits what they're doing this is a fantastic ending

[80:02]yep you got chuck and flav you know this doesn't have though is the guys from cream singing a song they just made up apparently okay that was also a great way we all know what they're doing very very good listen we don't have time for this anymore we're too tired okay we need to get into the rating system like bicycles oh and now it's time for everybody's hey man you mean the new co-worker bicycle she's too tired too tired now this album 176 okay it is a certified banger but should it be here in the future

[80:41]on the list all right this is the second public enemy album we've done is it too high is it too low i've got three guys who want to tell us about it and they will use it talk about it using my patented rating system if it is too high on the list which means of course the number is too low okay it should have been a higher number therefore lower on the list that would be a rolling groan it

[81:04]doesn't belong to be this high if it should be lower on the list also a lower number now okay lower on the list is a lower number that just makes sense all right that would be a rolling bone it should have been higher up or if it's perfect here at 176 that's a rolling well-toned matt what do you think rolling well-toned real just to clarify rob yes a lower number would be lower than nine which was what i have right that is a lower number would be lower than nine maybe

[81:31]three three and a half something like that two and a half two days if things have gone right it really would if you had a huge cock it would break my heart i'm just going to say that right now you don't you don't need to feel disappointed i am going to say um that i like listening to this album i don't know how many more times i'll listen to it but if it just popped up or came or came around somehow i would listen to it again i think this is rolling well-toned right here what are you 176 is that where we're at yeah

[82:03]we're 175 176 i think this is a good spot for it so i'm just going to say rolling well-toned aaron what do you think rolling well-toned rolling well-toned rolling well-toned i'm with matt i'm not going to choose to listen to this very often i maybe if i'm working out or something but uh it's great music it's really impressive what they were able to do it's so of its time with the samples that this could never happen again so people need to hear it it's rolling well-toned can you believe i haven't brought up costco

[82:32]with all the sample talk we've had i haven't gone back to that joke am i a hero i mean it's not too late not too late yeah i don't know you know it is it's late it doesn't feel like there's any meat left on the bone there at the costco stuff uh russell rolling well-toned rolling bone or rolling grown what do you think russell i i always want to try to go counter with what you guys are saying just to have something different but i can't i think you guys are spot on too important

[83:00]of a record they're too important of a group but again i don't think i would come back and if i listen to this on the record i don't think i flip it over and i don't think i listen to it back to it so for me it's probably a little bit high but i think it's too important to move it on the list so i'm going to say it's rolling well-toned i'll keep it where it's at unfortunately you guys are incorrect shit this gets a rolling pre-authorization pre-authorization yeah this shows us what music was like before we had to deal with all this copyright stuff okay and you could really see what artists could do without worrying about copyright okay like maybe if you're 43 years

[83:34]old and you realize maybe just today you thought about how you've written over a dozen songs about likes feet and those are all published on the internet and actually how weird that is that that's like your legacy what this we've done hey aaron i gotta i got news for you that's your legacy too yeah it's true hey you know what's on the end of those legacies fetuses i mean that's what he talks about all right now next up an album you know what we really screwed up on where we should

[84:09]we could have done that nine list on the 9-1-1 is a joke song oh my god we didn't even think about that what a fuck up i'll better re-record let's start over start over in 2020 next up an album about dating maggie may oh i got this one on vinyl was that that ice cream shop at

[84:31]the mall were they mixed in your you know that was maggie moose what oh yeah what i thought you're talking about this girl used to date sasha coldstone sasha i'll tell you what guys now i hate to do this right at this part of the podcast i told her to warm those hands up would you want to i mean it's tempting what to go on a date with a woman who works at cold stone creamery because that's all i could think about when i saw him like

[85:03]folding that ice cream i mean it's frozen solid they got to get it out their wrists are like they got to go like this they gotta go like this they take you home that's not soft serve you got to get in there and it's time for them to ride the lightning it's they're going to grab that thing it's going to be like wrenching on it it's going to be like in mission impossible where he's trying to climb a rope you know what i mean he's just yanking on that thing holy cow rob butterfly

[85:33]effect how different would your life be if your ex-girlfriend had worked at cold stone and not brought you chipotle wow i'd be like my foreskin is four times bigger than it's ever been before that's how hard you yanked on it like a car wash all right next up this album is about dating maggie may oh man or when russ norris when she was a dancer

[86:01]for the timberwolves Maggie November. I thought it was nicer to say November than December, but I don't think it was. We got Every Picture Tells a Story by Rod Stewart. I have this one on vinyl. I picked it up a few months ago. It's a great album. It's a great album. Oh, man. And I'm going to promise you guys we're not going to talk about the comma story. What?

[86:32]You have... Rod Stewart. I've got the perfect podcast for you, Jack. Beck did it better. Aaron goes to the gym and asks the girls to stop wiping down the equipment. I think that was good enough. I don't think that got enough respect the first time. You might as well re-read that. Take that. Yeah, wind it back.

[87:00]Yep. Smack it up. Flip it. Rub it down. Well, I really... Take that. Rewind it back. I consider that a sample. Aaron's got the gym request to make your booty go smack.
