Joy Division: Unknown Pleasures (1979)

[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.

[00:10]We are far from experts.

[00:11]We promise to do almost no research.

[00:13]All opinions are our own, unless you disagree.

[00:15]Please sit back and enjoy.

[00:17]Beck did it better.

[00:19]We are all the way up to album, dang it, 211.

[00:27]And from 1979, we have your favorite depressing band's favorite depressing band.

[00:32]It's Joy Division with Unknown Pleasure.

[00:35]Okay?

[00:36]And you know what?

[00:37]Shoe gazers gazed at their own shoes.

[00:38]Really, it's incredible when you hear this album and you're like, oh, this is like every album we didn't know before we listened.

[00:46]And you hear that Portishead guy?

[00:48]We're doing the best we can.

[00:50]Okay?

[00:51]We are.

[00:52]Portishead review guy, like two stars.

[00:54]Unlistenable drivel.

[00:55]I've seen the Joy Division t-shirt way more.

[00:57]And I've heard the Joy Division.

[00:58]Exactly.

[00:59]Yeah.

[00:59]With a little radar thing.

[01:00]Now, I have this t-shirt.

[01:01]I have to tell you guys.

[01:02]Well, you know what?

[01:03]First, let's get into directions.

[01:03]I don't have a parody song.

[01:05]I listened to this album and I was like, I don't even know where to begin.

[01:07]Oh, Russell was just on here beforehand saying that's fine.

[01:10]Good dog.

[01:11]He's burning me now.

[01:12]Hey, let's go to South Africa for another seven weeks.

[01:16]I have no parody songs when I come back.

[01:18]That's it's I could not.

[01:20]I was like, I can't even think of how to do a parody song of this album.

[01:22]So we don't have one.

[01:23]So let's get right to the introduction.

[01:24]I got three guys.

[01:25]You can squat like 800 meters.

[01:27]I'm 22 pounds, but you can't write a parody song for Joy Division.

[01:30]Get the fuck.

[01:31]Get the fuck out of here.

[01:32]What are we even doing?

[01:34]The songs were so short and so long at the same time.

[01:37]It didn't make any sense to me.

[01:38]Very slow.

[01:38]The beats per minute on this thing.

[01:40]It's really like, I don't know.

[01:42]Like, oh, it was supposed to listen to a lot of Carole King.

[01:44]Well, it's well, don't.

[01:46]Okay.

[01:46]Don't get me started on this yet.

[01:48]Aaron is too slow for me in general.

[01:50]We have to do the introductions.

[01:51]I've got three guys.

[01:52]You're the main host.

[01:53]Do the intros.

[01:54]Don't let me stop you.

[01:55]I've got.

[01:57]Three guys here who are my known pleasures.

[02:03]I've got Russell in Minneapolis.

[02:06]Russell, how are you doing?

[02:07]I've tried to express myself in different ways, but I've lost control again.

[02:13]Wow.

[02:13]Exactly.

[02:14]I've got Matt in Minneapolis.

[02:15]Matt, how are you doing?

[02:16]Good, Rob.

[02:18]People come.

[02:19]People go.

[02:20]Some grow young.

[02:21]Some grow old.

[02:22]That's enough to make you think for all night.

[02:25]Some are growers in that show.

[02:27]I bet in 1830, you just had to order regular soldier's sow's chicken.

[02:32]You couldn't get the general?

[02:36]It's pronounced sow?

[02:37]No.

[02:38]Okay.

[02:39]Well, ignore that part.

[02:40]I didn't know.

[02:42]He didn't become a general until after 1830, Russell.

[02:44]I had to do a little deep dive for that.

[02:46]And it paid off with huge laughs.

[02:49]Wow.

[02:49]Probably the microphone's cut.

[02:51]You couldn't even hear the huge laughs.

[02:52]They're so big.

[02:52]I've got Aaron out in California.

[02:54]Aaron, how are you doing?

[02:55]Did I?

[02:56]Did I listen to it?

[02:57]I listened to an entire Joy Division album yesterday and not hear Love Will Tear Us Apart.

[03:03]I'm so confused.

[03:04]I don't know any lyrics from this album because I was just waiting for Love Will Tear Us Apart.

[03:08]Let's talk about Joy Division.

[03:12]Aaron, is General Sow's Chicken, is that your favorite Chinese order?

[03:17]What are you getting when you're at a real, like in New York?

[03:20]I know when I go in and a 12-year-old kid is taking my order, the food's going to be banging.

[03:24]Okay.

[03:25]What is your order at a Chinese place like that?

[03:28]We were just talking about this tonight because we cleaned out the freezer and I made freezer-burned dumplings for the family for dinner, so I'm really proud of myself.

[03:36]I have to go hang out in the corner for a little bit.

[03:37]Jesus Christ.

[03:38]Intense.

[03:39]Freezer-burned dumplings?

[03:40]I don't get what's going on at your house.

[03:42]I don't know.

[03:43]No, they were just like frozen dumplings that had been in the freezer too long, and it was like, well, we better eat these up, you know?

[03:48]Because I was trying to make some tinga at the same time for a friend of mine who's having a birthday tomorrow, and the tinga is not turning out great.

[03:54]I was doing too many things.

[03:55]To answer your question.

[03:57]And Aaron, we know what tinga is, okay?

[03:59]We don't have to have that explained to us.

[04:01]Russell, can you explain to us real quick what tinga is?

[04:03]I know.

[04:03]I'm just trying to figure out how I can cure this freezer burn I've got.

[04:06]I feel a tingle in my bingo.

[04:09]Aaron, what is, Matt, do you know what tinga is?

[04:11]No idea.

[04:12]You guys have had it.

[04:13]Chicken tinga is a-

[04:15]We've talked about it like three times on this podcast.

[04:17]I have no idea.

[04:18]I'm sure we have.

[04:18]Chicken tinga.

[04:19]It's a braised chicken in a tomato or not even like a chili-based broth.

[04:25]It's not a big-

[04:25]Can you Google tinga?

[04:26]Yeah.

[04:27]It's just-

[04:27]Yeah.

[04:27]See what episode we talked about it on.

[04:28]This is like duck confit.

[04:31]Like, if you see duck confit on the menu, you get all excited.

[04:34]You realize it's just like a slow way of cooking duck.

[04:36]It's like, there's nothing impressive about it or anything like that.

[04:40]He's just using it.

[04:41]It's like just a word.

[04:43]Let's just move it along.

[04:44]I always thought it was Spanish for you just eat duck's feet.

[04:47]You know what I mean?

[04:48]Cone feet.

[04:48]Speaking of which, Aaron, I bet that's his favorite kind of duck prepared is cone feet.

[04:52]I've never had duck feet.

[04:53]I'd give them a try.

[04:54]Oh, no.

[04:55]They're so webby here.

[04:56]They're the worst part.

[04:57]They're the worst part of the duck.

[04:58]I would say second worst after the beak or bill.

[05:01]They don't have a beak.

[05:01]I would always order some dumplings.

[05:03]And there's a place in downtown Oakland.

[05:05]I don't even know if it's still open called Shandong that had sesame paste noodles, which

[05:10]were hand-pulled noodles with sesame paste.

[05:12]Those would be my go-to, but they don't have those everywhere.

[05:14]You guys know my thoughts on hand-pulled noodles.

[05:16]Love them.

[05:16]Put them all over my pants.

[05:18]Matt, what's your go-to Chinese order?

[05:19]I cannot take Chinese food anymore.

[05:23]I used to eat Eddie Chang's in Richfield over by.

[05:25]Russell probably knows where it is.

[05:27]Yeah, I do.

[05:27]I used to get that all the time.

[05:28]And it's like ice cream now.

[05:30]It just messes with my tummy.

[05:32]I can't take it anymore.

[05:33]I just can't do it.

[05:35]So I've moved on to Thai food.

[05:37]Very different.

[05:39]Very, very, very different.

[05:41]So I usually get the pineapple fried rice.

[05:44]What's the Chinese place that has the chain in the cities with the woman's name?

[05:48]What is that place?

[05:49]They've got the lemon chicken.

[05:51]That's so good.

[05:52]Damn it.

[05:53]You can pull it, Rob.

[05:55]You can get it.

[05:57]Chinese place in the cities.

[05:58]Maybe it's not a woman's name.

[05:59]Leanne Chin's.

[06:00]Leanne Chin's.

[06:01]Leanne Chin's.

[06:02]Matt's got it.

[06:02]Matt was letting you twist in the wind there.

[06:04]Matt had it the whole way.

[06:05]Made me so sick last time we ate there.

[06:08]Like five years ago, we all barfed our brains out.

[06:11]We have not been back from Leanne Chin's.

[06:12]Hold on, though.

[06:13]Hold on.

[06:14]Hold on.

[06:14]What's that?

[06:15]Is this because you had like a bunch of buffalo wigs at the airport beforehand?

[06:19]Or was this related to the food you had?

[06:22]I assume it's the food we had because we all got sick.

[06:24]It was like an instantaneous, like all got sick.

[06:26]And it's one of those.

[06:27]It's where we used to love stopping and getting it.

[06:29]And now we just can't anymore.

[06:31]It's just we got too sick on that stuff.

[06:32]I don't know.

[06:33]I don't.

[06:33]I do have.

[06:34]I get the brown rice.

[06:35]I get bourbon, the bourbon chicken.

[06:37]And then I think it's the guy.

[06:38]There's another one.

[06:39]The bourbon chicken is good.

[06:40]I like that.

[06:41]Yeah.

[06:41]But I got my brother from Duluth.

[06:43]Every time he comes down, he's got to get Leanne Chin's.

[06:46]Rob, I was.

[06:47]I'm a look for the local listeners.

[06:49]I'm an Anna Chung and Egan guy.

[06:51]Sweet and sour chicken, sesame beef and some cream cheese puffs.

[06:55]Oh, that's.

[06:57]Order thing.

[06:57]Now, listen.

[06:58]Hey, we don't have time for this.

[07:00]We need to get right to our voicemail.

[07:03]We're going to do the parody on the back line.

[07:13]Oh, God damn it.

[07:14]Russ.

[07:14]Russ.

[07:15]It was a banger.

[07:17]It was a banger.

[07:18]Everybody Wang Chung tonight.

[07:22]I could not make a joke out of it.

[07:23]So I'm just singing it now.

[07:24]Guys.

[07:25]First time Bexter.

[07:27]Long time listener.

[07:28]This is Mr.

[07:30]Moses, a.k.a.

[07:32]Dumbass listener, a.k.a.

[07:33]Father of the Year.

[07:34]I'm responding on behalf of little Moses, my 12 year old son, who was spotted at Metallica

[07:41]by another dumbass listener while he was rocking his Beck did it better T-shirt.

[07:47]So this is about little Moses.

[07:48]Little Moses is hopefully our youngest listener at 12 years old.

[07:53]He is a constant listener.

[07:54]Yeah.

[07:54]Okay.

[07:55]Amazing.

[07:55]I.

[07:56]I.

[07:57]I'm hoping a lot of stuff goes over his head.

[07:59]Okay.

[07:59]Because if he's asking his dad questions on Valentine's Day, listen, we got problems.

[08:03]Can I just clear, can I just clear this all up for him?

[08:06]Because my mother-in-law, Patty, sorry tonight.

[08:08]She wanted me to tell you, Rob, you got to stop talking about your penis so much.

[08:12]Oh, here we go.

[08:12]So for little Moses, whenever he talks about, whenever he talks about gray balls, he's talking

[08:18]about testicles.

[08:19]Whenever he talks about crying, he's talking about his penis.

[08:21]Okay.

[08:22]Rob's talking about his penis.

[08:24]I cannot imagine the birds of the bees conversation with Matt.

[08:27]This is too much.

[08:27]He's talking about a bird's nest.

[08:28]That just means that he's got a lot of pubic hair down there.

[08:30]Oh God, I can't handle this, Matt.

[08:32]I can't handle this dad discussion with him on this stuff.

[08:35]I think we're doing a public service.

[08:36]I think we're doing a public service.

[08:38]Mr.

[08:38]Mr.

[08:38]Moses doesn't have to have the talk.

[08:40]The birds.

[08:40]We're taking care of it for him.

[08:41]The birds.

[08:42]Rob's taking it for him.

[08:43]The birds of the bees, Beck did it better style.

[08:45]Okay.

[08:46]Okay.

[08:47]Remember when Rob said 69 is one long tube?

[08:49]Okay.

[08:50]Here's why that's wrong.

[08:51]I'm going to get up some diagrams right now.

[08:52]The worst.

[08:54]All right.

[08:54]Let's get back to the voicemail.

[08:55]To answer your question, he'd love to meet the rest of the crew at some point, maybe

[09:01]lunch at Rick's or something.

[09:02]I'm currently on my way to soul coughing and don't worry, I'll be representing the pod.

[09:08]Yeah.

[09:09]Is he seriously going to a soul coughing concert?

[09:13]Is he like, this is a while ago, but yeah, he wasn't.

[09:15]He was wearing the Beck did a better shirt.

[09:16]Walk around in circles.

[09:18]I think they're coming to first half.

[09:20]I think, man, I'd go.

[09:21]So you say this was his son who, who I was at the same.

[09:25]Metallica concert.

[09:26]One of our other listeners spotted this kid wearing the shirt.

[09:30]Send us a picture.

[09:31]We talked about what he wanted to meet.

[09:33]Russ, the hero, like the funniest guy on the podcast.

[09:37]What do you want to be in person?

[09:39]Wow.

[09:40]And he says, yes.

[09:41]Yeah.

[09:42]Tell us about it.

[09:43]He'd be like, what was that story that got censored last week?

[09:46]Tell me about that story.

[09:47]I 100% know this listener and he does not.

[09:51]He wouldn't know who I am at all, but I, was he a year ahead of us at St.

[09:54]Olaf?

[09:54]No, you're guys.

[09:55]It's the same.

[09:56]Really?

[09:56]He was like an intimidatingly cool guy.

[09:58]Like he was like, this was two years old.

[10:00]No, no, no.

[10:01]There you go.

[10:02]I mean, right.

[10:03]So like this guy was like, I knew who he was for sure.

[10:05]And there was no way he knew who I was.

[10:07]He was like, it was like him, Steve, you know, he was like, this is a complex thing.

[10:13]Aaron, I, if I were to rank you guys on the cool scale, I would put you even like there's,

[10:18]there's not a, there's not a significant difference here.

[10:21]I appreciate that.

[10:22]Cause in my mind, he was like off the charts.

[10:24]No, no, no.

[10:25]Can I just say to the caller, I apologize for Russ saying that you're even with Aaron.

[10:28]Okay.

[10:29]That we can't be saying something like this.

[10:32]We, I'm too mean to the fans.

[10:33]Aaron, like got a music scholarship.

[10:35]He was probably the coolest guy there.

[10:37]Wow.

[10:38]That's really, that's very kind of you.

[10:39]He's the coolest guy there.

[10:41]Man, I'm so, I'm so glad we were recording tonight.

[10:42]Didn't Mr. Moses, wasn't he, wasn't he a soccer player?

[10:44]Am I remembering that?

[10:45]Yeah, I think he was, right?

[10:46]He was at the goal of the soccer team.

[10:47]Yeah.

[10:47]He also went, like he went bald like before me.

[10:49]For the record, soccer goalie, way cooler than any of those clowns that got music scholarships.

[10:53]Let me just tell you.

[10:55]At the time, Aaron, Aaron is probably the only person on that campus that could tell

[10:59]you what a glissando was and say who won like the 98 World Series.

[11:02]He's probably the only person.

[11:04]That's true.

[11:06]In Florida?

[11:06]Was it Florida or was that 97?

[11:08]That was the Yankees.

[11:09]98, the Yankees beat the Padres.

[11:10]Oh my God.

[11:11]Was it 97 in Florida?

[11:13]Am I remembering that right?

[11:14]You know what?

[11:16]Yeah, it is cool.

[11:17]What I just heard was so cool.

[11:19]I could be wrong, but.

[11:20]Aaron was like the Liz Cheney of St.

[11:25]Louis back then.

[11:25]Did she ever come speak in St.

[11:29]Louis?

[11:29]She might have come to speak when we were there.

[11:31]I got my, I got my parliament concert mixed up with when Newt Gingrich was there speaking.

[11:37]It was wrong.

[11:38]It was, they said, don't get back on his bus with him.

[11:41]I did.

[11:42]Listen, 97, Florida Marlins, 98, New York Yankees.

[11:47]There we go.

[11:47]You can tell your wife about your Joe Manchin comparison at St.

[11:51]Louis and see what she thinks of that.

[11:52]I tried to show her my Joe Manchin.

[11:54]I don't know Joe Manchin all the time, but she's like, no, it's a no.

[11:57]It's more like a Joe Rambler.

[11:59]So here's the thing, Matt, what was I talking about there?

[12:02]A tutor.

[12:03]It was like a Joe tutor.

[12:05]Joe tutor.

[12:06]Hey kid, Matt's there talking about his penis again.

[12:08]Okay.

[12:08]So we're going to have a little, we're going to have a little kid DVD commentary just in

[12:12]case a 12 year old's listening to, they need to hear what the stuff is about.

[12:15]Yeah.

[12:16]Now, Russell, unfortunately you are wrong.

[12:19]Aaron is not cooler than this guy just by the fact that he was dating somebody two years

[12:23]older in college.

[12:24]Now, Russell, of course, two years older to Russell is like amateur hour.

[12:28]That's nothing.

[12:28]But can you imagine?

[12:30]You know who else dated somebody one year older?

[12:33]Who's that?

[12:33]It was John from Edina, his wife.

[12:35]Wow.

[12:36]John's way cooler than all of us.

[12:38]He's cooler.

[12:39]I could not imagine being a freshman dating a junior in college.

[12:42]Oh my God.

[12:43]If you told me that was a possibility, I would have jizzed in my jeans.

[12:46]Hold on.

[12:47]Hold on, guys.

[12:48]Thursday, homie, jizzing in my jeans.

[12:49]Rob, hold on.

[12:50]Can we take your headphones for like three months?

[12:52]I was like, can we edit something out here?

[12:53]Can we?

[12:54]What's that?

[12:54]Go ahead, man.

[12:55]Can you take your headphones off, Rob?

[12:57]Eric, don't ask him to do the edited outfit because trust me, it doesn't work.

[13:00]How many fucking times do I have to tell him it was only a year older?

[13:02]A year older than you guys.

[13:03]Two years older than me.

[13:04]Is he listening to us?

[13:06]No, not at all.

[13:06]No, one bit.

[13:07]One year older than you guys.

[13:08]Two years older than me.

[13:09]John's wife, one year.

[13:12]Mr. Moses, one year.

[13:14]All right, Rob, come on back.

[13:15]Stepping up either way.

[13:16]I mean, you're a sophomore dating a senior?

[13:18]Damn.

[13:19]Damn, that would be hot.

[13:20]Damn.

[13:21]Anyway, I just think there is something about dating a

[13:24]year up, right?

[13:25]That was always like, like I had a high school friend who would just date like older women

[13:29]and I was like, I would be so intimidated.

[13:31]Like they know what they're doing with their makeup.

[13:33]They're all had those Playboy Bunny tanning salon things.

[13:37]Rob, I actually went up about 17 classes when I updated that Timberwolves dance team member.

[13:45]Only 17?

[13:49]Yeah.

[13:49]She was like from the Eisenhower administration.

[13:54]Oh my God.

[13:55]Okay.

[13:55]You know what?

[13:56]Let's get right.

[13:57]Where do we even go from there?

[14:00]The Eisenhower administration?

[14:01]Possibly.

[14:02]That punchline.

[14:04]It's time to see what everybody does.

[14:05]Hey guys, if you had Eisenhower administration as a punchline on your back to the back or

[14:09]bingo card.

[14:10]That's a bingo.

[14:10]Fill that in.

[14:12]We'll double check it.

[14:13]Oh.

[14:13]Now, Russell, honestly, when you went on that walking date, I know we joke about it, but

[14:19]I'm curious when you met her.

[14:22]Bring it.

[14:24]Is it, can you ask somebody how old they are on a date?

[14:26]Is that rude?

[14:28]Or is that on the.

[14:29]We talked about, if you would listen to our podcast, we talked about when the blackjack

[14:33]dealer asked me that a week ago.

[14:34]That's not something you ask someone.

[14:35]Yeah, but the blackjack dealer isn't trying to drink hot chocolate and finger you later.

[14:40]You know what I mean?

[14:41]Like what?

[14:43]What?

[14:43]Hey Rob, do you, hey Rob, for the 12 year olds, could you describe to me what was that

[14:49]act that you were just talking about?

[14:54]How could you repurpose that statement?

[14:55]Listen, okay.

[14:57]I, what do you, is it on the dating app that, that they are that old?

[15:00]Like how old did you, or did you like when you meet somebody in your dating seriously

[15:04]and they're that old, do you say like.

[15:05]It may have been a little lazy fair when it came to those apps and let, why didn't, why

[15:09]didn't the applicable range of what was an acceptable swipe for a while.

[15:14]Oh, you're like, well, listen, this net is not catching very many fish.

[15:21]We need to make this net bigger.

[15:23]Then you started.

[15:23]Catching those weird looking fish from the bottom of the ocean.

[15:26]You're like, well, okay, we might need to make this net a little smaller.

[15:28]Like the Simpsons, the Blinky, the three-eyed fish.

[15:30]Yeah, exactly.

[15:31]What am I going to do?

[15:32]You got to, you got to play the game.

[15:34]Listen.

[15:35]Okay.

[15:36]Let's get right into rolling going.

[15:37]Now, Aaron, rolling going.

[15:39]How's it going with you?

[15:39]It's going great.

[15:41]I took a trip to Iowa last weekend, right?

[15:43]Tonight, Saturday.

[15:44]Nice.

[15:44]A week ago, a week ago tonight.

[15:46]A flight.

[15:47]I was sitting, well, I took a flight.

[15:49]Of course, I took a flight.

[15:50]Wow.

[15:51]To Des Moines.

[15:52]All right.

[15:53]Wow.

[15:54]And I had.

[15:54]They got an airport in Des Moines?

[15:56]They got an airport.

[15:56]I went through Las Vegas on the way out.

[15:58]Phoenix on the way back.

[16:00]Did you gamble in the airport?

[16:03]I did not.

[16:03]No, I did not.

[16:04]It's all slots.

[16:05]Is there any blackjack in the airport?

[16:07]We did talk about this a week ago, how I have a colleague who won three grand.

[16:12]Wait, what happened?

[16:13]What happened a week ago?

[16:14]Vegas, Vegas slot machine.

[16:16]Oh, hey, did we?

[16:17]I guess we didn't tell Matt that we did it.

[16:18]Hey, baby.

[16:20]Nobody picked up the phones.

[16:21]I decided to just start talking, baby.

[16:23]I'm trying to figure out what happened a week ago.

[16:26]I don't know what you guys are talking about.

[16:27]I wanted to see how your flight to Iowa went, Aaron.

[16:31]My flight went great.

[16:33]Well, it was actually a little awkward because.

[16:35]Oh, baby.

[16:37]Somebody woke up here.

[16:38]I got to go.

[16:38]Goodbye, baby.

[16:39]What?

[16:40]I know.

[16:42]I'm sorry.

[16:42]I won't be so loud.

[16:43]I will talk at this volume.

[16:47]I will talk at this volume.

[16:49]Just turn on the slot machine.

[16:50]Turn on the Miami slot machine.

[16:53]You cannot say Miami slot machine when I'm getting yelled at by my wife.

[17:03]That feels like it's out of bounds.

[17:05]That's like six to midnight, right?

[17:08]You're getting yelled at by your wife.

[17:10]You're talking.

[17:10]And you're talking about the Miami slot machine.

[17:12]My wife.

[17:13]Can we drop in the, can we get the, my wife.

[17:15]Rock hard direction right there.

[17:16]Okay, let's just, you know what?

[17:19]It's fine.

[17:19]Let's just chill out.

[17:20]Let's just talk wily.

[17:21]Okay.

[17:22]And let's just see what's going on.

[17:23]We're flying to Des Moines.

[17:24]What happens when you get to Iowa?

[17:25]Well, a couple of things.

[17:27]Ironically, last week, Rob made fun of me for looking on Twitter for weather.

[17:31]And then there was a fire in Oakland while I was in the, on the plane on the way from

[17:37]Las Vegas to Des Moines.

[17:38]There was a fire.

[17:39]Only it was like eight miles from my house.

[17:41]It was fine.

[17:41]Oh my God.

[17:42]It was fine.

[17:43]It turned out like shout out, like, listen, absolute shout out to the Oakland fire department.

[17:48]They knocked that thing down.

[17:49]Big props, big ups.

[17:50]Landed in Des Moines.

[17:52]My brother picked me up.

[17:53]He picked me up at the airport.

[17:54]We went straight to Confluence Brewing in Des Moines.

[17:58]I had a blue corn lager.

[18:00]It was delicious.

[18:01]And then we went straight to Ankeny High School and watched the Ankeny Hawks defeat the West

[18:06]Des Moines Valley Tigers in overtime.

[18:08]So that was pretty marvelous.

[18:10]Did you wear your letter jacket?

[18:11]Yes, please.

[18:12]I don't know where my letter jacket is, man.

[18:14]I would have absolutely.

[18:15]It turned out, I think it actually was homecoming, but I didn't see.

[18:19]You probably left it at that homeschooled girl's house, right?

[18:22]Remember when you gave it at home?

[18:23]Homeschooled girl?

[18:24]She was not homeschooled once I met her, but she did homeschool before that.

[18:29]That's where I got this letter where one hand's making the O and the other hand's pointing at it.

[18:33]They don't make those letters anymore.

[18:35]Way to marvelous time.

[18:37]My brother and my sister and I, my sister, who's a real person, went to the Ankeny Hawks game.

[18:41]It got really cold once they hit overtime, so I had to have a second hot chocolate.

[18:45]So I did two ho-chos at the game.

[18:46]It was pretty nice.

[18:47]Aaron, did you do the game just you, your brother and sister, just siblings only, or was the whole crew there?

[18:53]Siblings only.

[18:54]No, we did the siblings only.

[18:55]You don't get to do that very often, do you?

[18:58]No, it was very cool.

[18:59]Yeah, and like, it was cool, and we ended up just kind of standing around like at the end zone and watching,

[19:04]but then the Hawks went to overtime, and it was very fun, so that was pretty rad.

[19:09]And then Saturday.

[19:11]Did you recognize anyone at the school from when you went?

[19:14]I recognized Shane Vanami, and I do kind of feel bad because I didn't say hi to Shane,

[19:19]and he was on his way out as I was on my way in, and Shane was the only,

[19:23]one of the only juniors on my, when I was a senior,

[19:27]he was one of the only juniors who contributed to our state championship,

[19:30]so shout out to Shane for being a state champ, and I should have, I should have hit him up.

[19:33]He's probably talking on his podcast how he stole Aaron's girlfriend at the prom,

[19:38]who was a year older than him.

[19:40]That was Sean Hammersley.

[19:41]Sean was not a football player.

[19:43]He was an 800-meter runner.

[19:44]He's probably like, oh, I saw this guy on the football team who didn't get a fumble in the championship game.

[19:48]That's all we talk about on this podcast.

[19:49]God, it's out there on YouTube.

[19:50]He was right.

[19:51]He was right.

[19:52]I was in there.

[19:53]I was right.

[19:53]I was right there, and then Saturday, I had a nice brunch at my mom's.

[19:57]I took her pup Angus for a walk, and then Saturday night, I was at Jack Trice Stadium to watch the Cyclones.

[20:04]Iowa State football.

[20:05]Iowa State football.

[20:06]I went to this game because it was like good timing, middle of October.

[20:11]The vibe should have been good.

[20:12]The Cyclones were favored by 13 and a half.

[20:15]I just wanted to go to a game with my family and enjoy it.

[20:18]I wanted to chill.

[20:19]I wanted them to win by three touchdowns and enjoy it.

[20:22]No.

[20:23]That is not what happened.

[20:24]This thing was a nail-biter down to the minute.

[20:26]The Cyclones got the ball with under two minutes to go and had to try to score to win.

[20:31]It was stressful.

[20:32]What's this song you're playing, Rob?

[20:35]I think we're going to fight, fight, fight for Iowa is generally the way it goes here.

[20:39]And then I also got to say, but the Cyclones came back and won.

[20:42]It was magical.

[20:43]It was easily the best Cyclone finish I have seen in my life, so that was marvelous.

[20:47]And so the Cyclones game, is this siblings and dad, or who's that?

[20:51]Siblings and dad, yeah.

[20:52]Siblings and dad.

[20:53]So, brother, sister, and dad, we were at the Cyclone game.

[20:56]We did some tailgating.

[20:57]This is so cool.

[20:58]Yeah, it was fantastic.

[21:00]Aaron, the fans want to know, what did you get to eat at the Cyclones game?

[21:03]Oh, you know I got a walking taco.

[21:05]But here's what happened with the walking tacos.

[21:07]I went to get a walking taco at half.

[21:09]So actually, no, I got to give, I got to, I got to give it a shout because.

[21:12]Aaron, what number were you in high school?

[21:13]52.

[21:14]52, okay.

[21:15]I got to give a shout because we went to Ames.

[21:18]The game was a 6.30 p.m. game.

[21:20]My sister went at like 10.30 a.m. because she's a.

[21:23]She's a hardcore tailgater.

[21:24]My dad and my brother and me got there at like 4 p.m.

[21:27]My brother hooked up a good tailgate.

[21:28]He brought some Ruthie lagers from Exile Brewing in Des Moines.

[21:32]Some Mikkel Lights.

[21:34]Is that with an F or with a T?

[21:35]Ruthie.

[21:36]Ruthie.

[21:37]Ruthie was a.

[21:37]Okay.

[21:38]Ruthie was a famous waitress in Des Moines.

[21:44]Oh, yeah.

[21:45]Oh, yeah.

[21:45]Let's hear about it.

[21:46]Yeah, famously, she could carry beers on top of her bosom.

[21:50]So that was.

[21:51]Oh, my God.

[21:52]She's a mythical figure.

[21:53]But she's a real person.

[21:54]That's like a chicken coop lady for some people in the South State ball area that we know.

[21:59]It truly is, though.

[22:00]It's like the unicorn, Bigfoot, the woman who could carry beer in her breasts.

[22:04]That was Ruthie.

[22:05]All of our mythical figures.

[22:07]My brother brought some Jimmy Johns in.

[22:09]So I had a Jimmy Johns.

[22:10]Did you guys tailgate before the game?

[22:12]We did tailgate, which is not tradition in my family.

[22:15]Usually we go like get there like an hour before the game and go straight in and watch warm ups.

[22:18]But did a little tailgating.

[22:20]I took a fireball shot.

[22:21]But here's what happened.

[22:22]Somebody offered me.

[22:23]Somebody offered me a jello shot, but I thought I might be driving home.

[22:26]So I declined the jello shot.

[22:28]And then my brother ended up driving home and I should have taken the jello shot.

[22:31]You know what?

[22:32]You should always take the jello shot.

[22:33]I think jello shots are terrible.

[22:35]And this is coming from someone like I will.

[22:37]I will try anything.

[22:38]If someone gives me a shot, I'm in for it.

[22:42]There's something about a jello shot.

[22:43]They're awkward.

[22:44]You just suck it down.

[22:45]It's never mixed right.

[22:48]I think jello shots are the worst.

[22:50]They are.

[22:51]But if someone offers you a free one, you should take it.

[22:52]You've got to go.

[22:53]But I know this is the most disgusting talk I've ever heard that you guys hate fun.

[22:58]It's alcohol combined with jello.

[23:01]Guys, you are looking at a guy who knows for a fact that he's going to get wrecked tomorrow.

[23:07]Tomorrow is the day where I hand out Halloween.

[23:09]I'd say I hand out candy.

[23:12]Yes, I get hammered every year doing this.

[23:14]I know I've cleared my schedule.

[23:16]I'm going to go to bed early.

[23:17]I'm all set.

[23:18]Yes, I would never.

[23:20]I don't think never would ever pass.

[23:23]I don't think I would ever say no to that.

[23:25]I don't care.

[23:26]It's one of my regrets.

[23:27]I could be driving my kid home from her wedding.

[23:30]I'd be like, well, better do a jello shot.

[23:32]Can't resist.

[23:33]Wait, if you're driving your kid home from her wedding, you've got bigger problems.

[23:36]No, they're never good.

[23:37]What if it was a 3-2-1 jello shot where it had the fuzzy layer?

[23:40]You guys don't know 3-2-1 jello.

[23:41]We've had this discussion before.

[23:43]What?

[23:43]3-2-1 jello.

[23:45]Can you get those at Walgreens?

[23:47]Because I'll put it on my list for tomorrow if you can.

[23:49]This was an old kind of jello you could get where it had the three layers.

[23:53]You guys don't remember this?

[23:54]No.

[23:55]3-2-1 jello.

[23:56]Now that I see it, I know what you're talking about.

[23:58]Now imagine that you have that and there's booze in it.

[24:01]That rules.

[24:02]Aaron, who's number 22?

[24:04]Is that a running back and also played maybe linebacker?

[24:07]22.

[24:08]20 would have been Adam Benj.

[24:11]Adam.

[24:13]22 looks like a good player.

[24:15]Maybe that's Adam Benj.

[24:17]Maybe Benj was 22.

[24:18]We officially lost Matt for the second week in a row.

[24:21]Are you watching the 1997 Hawks?

[24:23]The Hawks highlight video?

[24:24]It's the highlight one.

[24:25]Is your failed fumble attempt in the highlight?

[24:29]It's at the very end, yeah.

[24:30]Well, not the very end.

[24:31]It's like about 45 minutes in.

[24:33]Matt, send me a link.

[24:34]We're putting that up on Instagram.

[24:35]Yeah.

[24:36]That or Pornhub, one of the two, right, Rob?

[24:39]Yeah, Benj would have been 22.

[24:41]He ran for 1,000 yards at Northern Iowa.

[24:43]He just fumbled a punt, but he looks really good.

[24:48]Folks, tell us what you think about jello shots.

[24:49]Call 802-277-BECK.

[24:52]Oh.

[24:53]Russell, I'm with you.

[24:54]I'm with you, Matt.

[24:55]How old are you?

[24:56]How old are you, Russell?

[24:58]Whatever it is, you're too old to be taking jello shots.

[25:02]I'm out.

[25:02]You're right.

[25:02]I'm out.

[25:03]I'll do it.

[25:04]I just don't think they have any place in society.

[25:07]Wow.

[25:07]You guys hate fun.

[25:09]Benji, B-E-N-G-E?

[25:11]B-E-N-J-E.

[25:13]Yeah, B-E-N-G-E, yeah.

[25:14]Yeah, B-E-N-G-E.

[25:15]He just caught some, like, amazing pass.

[25:17]That was the one in the state title game.

[25:18]Yeah, 40 minutes in.

[25:20]The punt is coming up.

[25:21]Yeah.

[25:21]Yeah, because, like,

[25:23]you're repeating your comedy bit from the last few nights.

[25:25]Is this what they're doing right here?

[25:27]Mm-hmm.

[25:27]That was a great catch.

[25:29]After he fumbled, yeah, that was a great catch, yeah.

[25:31]Matt's on the case.

[25:34]Matt's gone.

[25:34]But I had a walking taco, which is,

[25:38]if you've ever seen one of these,

[25:39]it's they cut open the top of a bag of chips.

[25:41]Yep, Doritos, usually.

[25:43]Well, that's what happened was they were,

[25:45]by the time I went, they were out of Doritos.

[25:47]They ran out of Doritos.

[25:48]They were like, all we have are Fritos.

[25:49]But I was like, I was so.

[25:50]Oh, Fritos could work, right?

[25:52]Doritos are good.

[25:52]It worked fine.

[25:53]It worked fine.

[25:53]It worked great.

[25:53]But it was funny.

[25:55]I told my dad, like,

[25:56]I don't have, like, culture shock in Iowa very often.

[25:58]It's like, I grew up there.

[25:59]It's fine.

[26:00]Mm-hmm.

[26:00]But now I live out here, right?

[26:01]So it's a little different.

[26:02]So I go to get my walking taco,

[26:04]and I look at the board,

[26:06]and it, like, it says walking taco,

[26:08]and then it just says.

[26:09]No, no.

[26:09]Beans, olives, jalapenos, sour cream, lettuce, tomatoes.

[26:15]And I was like, is there no meat on the walking taco?

[26:17]Like, that's super weird.

[26:18]And then, of course, yes, it's Iowa.

[26:21]Like, taco just assumes there's meat.

[26:22]Oh, it's on a bag.

[26:23]If it's needed, yeah, it's automatic.

[26:24]It's automatic.

[26:25]Because I was like,

[26:25]do I have to order the meat special?

[26:27]Like, I don't understand.

[26:28]And then, like, it's in there.

[26:29]It's just the same.

[26:30]Can I get some of that beyond meat

[26:33]into this walking taco?

[26:34]Do you guys have the chicken tingas option for this one,

[26:38]or am I going to have to go with ground beef?

[26:41]Well, because the same stand had pulled pork nachos,

[26:44]but, like, so the pulled pork nachos were up there,

[26:46]and then the walking taco just says walking taco.

[26:48]And I was like, I don't want a vegetarian walking taco.

[26:51]You didn't ask the vendor if there was meat in it, though.

[26:53]I didn't.

[26:53]I just took it.

[26:54]No, I just took a gamble.

[26:55]I was like, I'm just going to go for it.

[26:56]Do you guys have a shaker of nooch anywhere?

[26:59]Yeah, nutritional yeast.

[27:01]You don't?

[27:02]Okay.

[27:02]But it was delicious.

[27:04]And then the last thing I'll say is I drove my mom's car around.

[27:07]My mom just bought a nice little 07 Corolla

[27:11]for, like, her get-around car,

[27:12]and it had a CD deck in there.

[27:15]Oh, nice.

[27:15]You know how much I love CDs.

[27:17]Like, I was so happy.

[27:18]But the problem was, like,

[27:20]I've told you what the CDs look like in my mom's basement.

[27:23]There's some good stuff down there.

[27:24]I was so stoked.

[27:26]I found Steely Dan Asia.

[27:27]I opened it up.

[27:28]The case was empty.

[27:29]Oh, no.

[27:31]An empty case?

[27:32]I don't know where it went.

[27:33]I don't know where it went.

[27:34]That happens so much with CDs, doesn't it?

[27:37]You open it up.

[27:38]So, I don't know where it went.

[27:40]So, I went with The Flaming Lips, The Soft Bulletin,

[27:43]and The Walkman, Bows and Arrows.

[27:46]Both delightful.

[27:47]Wow.

[27:48]I think I've taken up too much of your time.

[27:50]How's it rolling going with Russell?

[27:51]Rolling going.

[27:52]Things are going really well.

[27:53]Well, I actually, I had an adventure the other day.

[27:56]It was a record store adventure.

[27:58]Rob, hit the music.

[27:59]Yes.

[28:00]What?

[28:00]Record store adventure.

[28:02]Rob, hit the music.

[28:03]What is the...

[28:04]Is it this one?

[28:06]Don't we have a song for this?

[28:07]The record store?

[28:09]I don't think we do, do we?

[28:10]Yes, we do.

[28:12]Do we?

[28:12]What's it called?

[28:14]Maybe you're just going to do that one.

[28:15]You were just doing just the intro.

[28:16]I have no recollection.

[28:18]The one you clicked first.

[28:20]Is it this one?

[28:23]We'll go with this.

[28:25]Guys, Rosie's got hair at night school.

[28:27]Did you know that?

[28:28]Yeah.

[28:28]You had a beautiful hair.

[28:29]Are you watching the senior night?

[28:31]No.

[28:32]I watched it after the celebration.

[28:34]Aaron's hair was so good,

[28:35]my mom was appalled when he shaved his head.

[28:37]Like senior year.

[28:38]She was like, she was sad.

[28:40]Yeah, it was a sad moment for me too, man.

[28:43]Okay, there's only 10 minutes left.

[28:47]And when Aaron's at the airport

[28:50]He always goes into heat

[28:53]When people at security

[28:55]Show their feet

[28:57]Women's feet

[29:00]Women's feet

[29:02]Aaron thinks they need

[29:04]Matt, can you do a little explainer

[29:05]for our 12-year-old listener for this one, please?

[29:07]Aaron thinks she can come

[29:09]No, I really can't.

[29:10]I don't think no one likes me.

[29:12]No one knows.

[29:12]No one understands.

[29:13]This is implying that Aaron has a foot fondling issue,

[29:17]which is something that we all go through

[29:20]in our mid-teens and

[29:21]Oh, I get it.

[29:23]I've grown out of two things.

[29:26]Jello shots and my foot fondling issues.

[29:28]Congrats.

[29:30]I had the biggest record store purchase

[29:34]I've ever had in my life

[29:35]and it might have been by like double.

[29:37]Whoa.

[29:38]Oh my gosh.

[29:39]I went to two stores.

[29:40]All we care about is which album was the most perverted.

[29:43]Okay, I just want to tell you that's what I'm waiting for.

[29:45]I don't think so.

[29:46]I've got it coming, but I went to two stores.

[29:48]I'm going to break it down by where I went first.

[29:51]Matt, I don't know if you've been to this one.

[29:53]There's a...

[29:53]There's a...

[29:53]There's a new record store in Minneapolis

[29:54]called Lucky Cat Records off Lindale.

[29:56]It was an old record store that was there for a long time.

[30:00]It went away and some new owner, it just...

[30:02]There's been newspaper articles about it.

[30:03]It's a new record store.

[30:04]Wait, was it Orfolk...

[30:06]Was it Orfolk, Jocopus, and then Treehouse?

[30:08]It might have been.

[30:09]25th and Lindale, Aaron.

[30:11]I don't know if that...

[30:11]Yeah, right across from the CC.

[30:12]Yeah, yeah.

[30:12]Oh, yeah, Kitty Corner.

[30:14]Yep, Kitty Corner from...

[30:15]Sorry, I was watching a highlight film.

[30:16]Hit the Mavs music, please.

[30:18]I'm watching Aaron's highlight film as well.

[30:19]They just built that new apartment complex

[30:21]with the Aldi.

[30:21]Yes.

[30:23]The new apartment complex there now?

[30:24]Wow.

[30:24]Yeah, and an Aldi.

[30:25]You know, it's good to have a grocery store there

[30:28]because there's a little bit of a food desert,

[30:29]so it's good to have a grocery store.

[30:30]So I would call this record store

[30:32]a bit of an intimate store.

[30:34]It was very small compared to some of, like,

[30:36]the cheapo records or electric feed

[30:39]is some of the bigger ones in Minneapolis.

[30:40]You know, some people, though, Russell,

[30:41]like those smaller stores better, okay?

[30:44]Well, I think they do, Aaron.

[30:46]That was a hangout for Peter Jesperson, I think,

[30:49]who was a replacement sort of manager

[30:53]at some point.

[30:53]Aaron, it's interesting you say that.

[30:55]So I think the one thing,

[30:56]if I were to advise our listeners,

[30:59]local listeners, about record stores,

[31:00]that this place didn't have a ton of used records.

[31:03]They had some new ones and stuff,

[31:05]but where I think this one stood out

[31:06]is they had a ton of local records,

[31:08]a ton of Minneapolis artists.

[31:10]They had a whole wall of Minneapolis artists.

[31:12]So I went down.

[31:13]First one I got is the replacements.

[31:16]Oh, wow.

[31:17]Wait, let it be?

[31:18]Let it be.

[31:19]Yeah.

[31:19]Oh, Russell, look at that.

[31:22]Yes.

[31:22]It looks so good.

[31:24]The second one I got...

[31:25]If you're buying a replacements record on Lindale,

[31:26]you're buying a replacements record, man.

[31:28]You got to do it, right?

[31:29]The second one I got...

[31:30]Now, Russell, can I ask you,

[31:31]did you feel cool as hell when you bought that record?

[31:33]Well, we'll see if I feel cool after the next one I give you,

[31:36]but Matt might judge me,

[31:37]but I'm going to go for it anyways.

[31:38]It's the one I get it confused with the replacements.

[31:41]It's the Pretenders.

[31:42]Whoa.

[31:43]Wow.

[31:44]That's a good one.

[31:45]Yeah.

[31:45]And then I only got one other record there.

[31:48]I could only get three that I really called my name.

[31:51]The last one I got is one we've

[31:52]covered on the list.

[31:53]It's Etta James, At Last.

[31:55]Oh, yes.

[31:56]What a great one to have on Lindale.

[31:58]So at this point, I'm like,

[32:00]okay, I've gotten what I can,

[32:02]and I would recommend it.

[32:04]It's the local spot.

[32:05]I think if you're going to go looking for Minnesota bands,

[32:08]I think this is the record store you go to.

[32:10]Yeah.

[32:11]But I didn't get that.

[32:13]I wasn't satiated.

[32:14]I wasn't fulfilled by what I got from that record store,

[32:17]so I needed to go to one more.

[32:19]So we walked down to Cheapo Records.

[32:22]And so I ended up spending way too much money.

[32:26]Do you guys ever go overboard at record stores bad, Aaron?

[32:29]I know you guys buy records.

[32:30]You guys ever go overboard?

[32:31]I've done it.

[32:32]I try not to.

[32:32]I've definitely done it, yeah.

[32:34]Yeah, it's kind of like buying Champion reverse weave sweatshirts these days.

[32:37]Maybe Jordan shoes, maybe the Jordan Ones.

[32:41]Do you feel bad afterwards when you overspend on records or not?

[32:45]Ah, yeah, I do, because then you feel like you have to listen to them, right?

[32:50]And if you're not listening to them enough,

[32:52]are they getting the attention they deserve from overspending?

[32:55]This was the first where I definitely had an overspend and kind of felt bad,

[33:00]but I had some amazing finds that I wanted to share with you guys if I could.

[33:03]And Rob, we know when I go to record stores,

[33:05]we got to do something pretty perverted.

[33:07]We're starting with the pretty perverted,

[33:09]which I put on top when I checked out at Cheapo.

[33:11]The album is Hooters, Nervous Night.

[33:14]Hooters?

[33:16]There's a band called Hooters?

[33:17]Which features the song, And We Dance.

[33:20]Rob, maybe you could pull up And We Dance.

[33:22]I actually can't type and do that at the same time.

[33:25]Hooters, you recently did this on your mellophone list or whatever.

[33:35]Oh, we did.

[33:36]Oh, yeah.

[33:37]Because this band was named Hooters because they were on the mellophone list.

[33:42]And that's the Cyndi Lauper episode I just listened to and told you guys how good it was.

[33:45]So, Rob, this was the one where I was like, this is pretty perverted.

[33:48]It's got to go top of the stack.

[33:50]They've got to look at this one.

[33:52]First, think, what is wrong with this guy, right?

[33:54]Can you guys imagine the evolution of Russell?

[33:58]He is now going to a record store buying Etta James, The Replacements, and The Hooters.

[34:03]That's how cool we have made Russell.

[34:05]These are the different stores, Rob.

[34:06]I know you had to get up and go deal with your family problems, but these are different stores.

[34:09]Well, there was a noise in the kitchen.

[34:11]I wasn't sure what it was.

[34:12]It was scary.

[34:12]It was always in him.

[34:13]He always had it in him.

[34:14]I think, Matt, you guys may have said you don't know this one as much.

[34:17]I don't either, but there's one song in this that I think is absolute dynamite.

[34:21]The album is...

[34:21]His name is Kim Carnes, Mistaken Identity.

[34:25]The song I wanted was Betty Davis Eyes.

[34:27]Yeah.

[34:28]But that Betty Davis Eyes song is an absolute killer.

[34:32]It is.

[34:33]Absolutely.

[34:34]Now, we also talked a lot about Kim Carnes on the Cyndi Lauper episode, guys.

[34:41]This is like the Cyndi Lauper episode part two.

[34:42]I'll come back.

[34:43]I love it.

[34:44]This is a good song, man.

[34:45]We'll let this go for a minute.

[34:48]I'll keep going on the list of what I got.

[34:51]The first one that I got, it's in fine condition, Aaron.

[34:54]I don't know fine condition when they say that on the record, if that means it doesn't work or what.

[34:58]It probably means there's some, like, it needs to be cleaned up.

[35:01]Maybe it's got some dust on it.

[35:02]It's like Aaron.

[35:03]It was an album we've covered on the list so far.

[35:05]It's Bruce Springsteen, Darkness on the Edge of Town.

[35:08]Oh, wow.

[35:09]God, Russell.

[35:11]He played almost everything from that album when I saw him, and every single one of them is a banger.

[35:16]I then picked this one up for $9.90 in fine condition.

[35:21]It's The Who, Who's Next.

[35:23]Wow.

[35:24]Baba O'Reilly.

[35:25]Yeah.

[35:26]Won't Get Food Again.

[35:29]Behind Blue Eyes.

[35:30]It's on there.

[35:30]Man, this is the first one that I thought would blow you away.

[35:33]I think you'll like this one.

[35:34]It's Weezer, The Blue Album.

[35:36]Oh.

[35:36]Oh.

[35:37]Doesn't get much better than that.

[35:39]My Name is Jonas, Buddy Holly, The Sweater Song.

[35:42]I hope we've not heard that yet.

[35:43]Just the whole thing.

[35:44]Wait.

[35:44]Because this list sucks sometimes.

[35:46]I hope we've not heard Wildflowers.

[35:48]Well, we're about to.

[35:49]We've got these two albums ready this week and next week.

[35:51]we have after that you're totally right that we should have heard weezer blue album by now that

[35:56]whole album front to back slaps in my garage my name is jonas surf wax america you guys know is

[36:02]one of my favorite songs like that is an incredible incredible album one of the specific reasons we

[36:09]picked up weezer was we saw them in concert rob i know you hammered me when i said i saw buddy

[36:14]holly in concert got that buddy holly record but we did see weezer matt you were at the same concert

[36:19]so when we see a band in concert we got to get their record right so that's why we picked that

[36:23]one up and so we followed that one up with you mentioned dookie i saw dookie live i also saw

[36:29]american idiot so we picked up wow american idiot on vinyl wow russell that is you were just you're

[36:36]on fire with your records i forgot to be hitting those buttons for every record i got three more

[36:39]that i picked up this day on my overspending oh you did you did overspend the next one i picked

[36:45]up now russell can i can i ask you this yes did you show all of the

[36:49]these to the upstairs roommate she was actually at the record stores with me i don't do you matt

[36:55]and aaron would you guys go to the record store is your wife or your significant other usually

[36:59]with you are you on your own russell russell yeah i usually go yeah is that a serious question

[37:06]i've usually gone on my own because i kind of always figure that's like the way to get out of

[37:11]the house for a few hours right russell can you take your earphones off for a second yeah guys

[37:16]this i think we've got some serious growth here because we remember like maybe 100 episodes ago

[37:22]there was all sorts of questions that russell was asking about like relationship stuff and it's like

[37:26]russell oh russell are you serious it's been a long time since we've had one of those he doesn't

[37:31]need our help anymore he doesn't need our help he's not the nest man he's flying now bad i don't

[37:36]think you listened to what rob had to delete last week but that's fine what happened you guys

[37:41]imagine not having kids i mean this is what not having kids is like you guys both go to a record

[37:46]store and get down to work and you're like oh my god i'm not having kids i'm not having kids i'm not

[37:46]hanging out oh my god let's just you know hey this one record store didn't work let's go to the

[37:52]second record store because we ain't got time nobody wants to get home and play video games

[38:00]nobody wants yeah i don't have to take my kid to a birthday party with parents i hate i know i'm

[38:04]gonna go talk to him for a half hour god damn next album i picked up at this record store is probably

[38:10]one of my favorites we've listened to it i think rob you and i are both on this bandwagon it's

[38:15]one of the artists that is we've loved the most from this this quest it's david bowie the rise

[38:20]and fall of ziggy that is such a good album that still is one of my favorite albums we've done

[38:26]that was my favorite discovery of an album like that's like still something i just am

[38:30]blown away and then i i actually bought two new albums i try to avoid the new ones i feel like

[38:34]what's the point of going i can buy those online you can buy those at a bookstore you can buy them

[38:39]anywhere right so i did buy two new ones and the first one i bought i've brought this album up

[38:43]multiple times because i didn't want to buy it i didn't want to buy it i didn't want to buy it i didn't

[38:45]want to buy it i think it's underrated i think it should have been rated higher we should have

[38:48]heard it by now the album is doggy style yes yes love it some albums deserve to be bought new

[38:56]russell that one deserves matt there's one other album that deserves to be bought new and it's the

[39:01]album that i believe you and aaron think will be the number one album next time they update the

[39:05]list it's lemonade by beyonce is the best how do you guys feel about that record store middle fingers

[39:15]i forgot that that's so good yes that will be number one on the list someday the only other

[39:22]thing that i've had to put back i almost got matt a version of the warrior by scandal wow i didn't

[39:28]know if he had it yet or not so i put it back what a great one hey uh weezer by the way 294 so

[39:56]papa rob did you listen or have any urge to the episode last week did not listen those guys right

[40:04]did not all right i honestly hope he didn't i feel like ben affleck in goodwill hunting where i'm like

[40:23]know we have not i don't know if we're gonna get to matchbox 20 in this we probably aren't but

[40:27]bright lights you know you can fast forward a little bit too because it starts off pretty slow

[40:30]right there that's good um so we you want to talk about a bra fumbling band

[40:38]matchbox 20 is an all-timer just wait just wait right here ready it's like all thumbs oh here we

[40:45]can we just take it off like a shirt he's giving us vulnerability he's showing us his soul right

[40:52]there so rob we uh family went to maine we went to visit maine last weekend you know it's about

[41:18]to banger we're going to bar harbor so i said okay hint all right i guess i get it yeah uh but i did

[41:25]use one of your tricks rob we were walking around uh stolen shit portland maine we're walking around

[41:31]portland maine trying to figure out you know where all the cool things are we go to the donut shop

[41:36]we're trying to get down to the wharf all the stuff and eddie's got to take a leak he's got

[41:41]to yeah really got to go he's got he's really got to go we cannot we're out of here we're out of here

[41:45]we're on the main street where they got all the tourist stuff they got the t-shirt shops they got

[41:49]the head the hedge a lot of head shops in the oh yeah in maine we didn't know that so all of a sudden

[41:55]there it is right in the sky the old uh chain hotel so i just said eddie i said don't look at

[42:03]anybody follow right behind me we're going in we just walked right through the lobby right to the

[42:08]bathroom took a leak i said now when we leave don't look at anybody head down look straight

[42:13]ahead

[42:15]on the joint walk out walk right out nice solid nice job are you bars rob or are you uh

[42:21]are you no hotels yeah hotels so they've ever stuck for you ever stuck for a bathroom

[42:27]hotel is the best thing but don't look anybody in the eye you just gotta go i like the idea of

[42:32]going into like a bank with this kid being like put on this mask don't say anything just do what

[42:37]i say start the timer for 30 seconds bars are good too though because like a bar you walk in

[42:42]especially in the middle of the day like they're not gonna they don't care what you're doing they're

[42:45]like no if you got a kid i mean they know what you're doing yeah something about walking into a

[42:50]bar at 9 30 in the morning with a kid i am right if you can avoid it and then you might as well

[42:56]order the hotel you can walk by people without them even noticing that you're going into like

[43:01]they'll look at you and they're like they're going up the elevator the bar they're gonna see

[43:04]why did they come in and not order a drink that i think i agree the hotel but just don't look

[43:09]anybody a lot of these things you just don't look i think there's something i saw somebody on tiktok

[43:15]those things i don't watch tiktok but did a thing they said their buddies talked about if you just

[43:20]walk into a anywhere if you walk into anything carrying a ladder people just let you in you know

[43:27]you want to go into a con just walk into the ladder and so they tried it they the thing about

[43:31]a lobby bathroom though that you got to be careful with is you are going to have every guy who's there

[43:38]with a date pooping down in the lobby bathroom okay you all know not even that is the key to a

[43:45]you have to go number two down in the lobby you can't do the bar door bathroom for sure poops at

[43:49]night it happens to me once in a while but i'm a morning guy aaron what are you talking i gotta get

[43:55]out of here we gotta we gotta get into this all the stuff what do you just say hold that till the

[44:00]morning yeah i'm a morning guy like i don't know most of the time unless something weird happens

[44:05]oh my gosh you guys it's like i said a certain time of day aaron for me it's always like at

[44:11]whatever the worst time would possibly be during the day it's like oh or

[44:15]like like the other day or you had a swim meet at your daughter's swim meet and all the bathrooms

[44:18]in the school are locked so you need to go find a kid's bathroom to do this then okay i think this

[44:23]is what your body's gonna react i mean but it's like i don't know i do that every single time i'm

[44:29]in a hotel just go down to the lobby if we're in vegas right like you got a roommate like just go

[44:35]down to the go to the lobby go to the yeah why would you why would you not why would you you

[44:39]know but when we were playing baseball we used to be like we used to have like four to a room

[44:45]right when you're traveling for baseball and stuff like that so the best thing would you just

[44:48]you don't go into your room you just find some other people's room and go in their room just

[44:53]shut lock the door wait you would go i think that is wrong i will say this i think people

[44:59]that use someone else's hotel room for the bathroom like that that is sick and wrong it's

[45:05]an all-out war you have to be on your game you have to lock your door don't let anybody in

[45:10]and then you got to make sure that yeah you just got to go find the oh hey guys how's it going what

[45:15]is the plan of some fucked up and then you go right into their shitter i would be so mad if i

[45:21]was in a hotel and i knew somebody else sat on my toilet seat oh my god plus rob like is known for

[45:29]like clocking these things and leaving 20 bills brock imagine why would you do it why would you

[45:34]do it in your room might as well do it in somebody else's room this is wrong you can avoid actually

[45:38]now that russ says that man might have a good point i should have gone to somebody else's room

[45:42]right there you go

[45:45]god that story god russell i'm bad you know the more this podcast goes on the more i realize i'm

[45:50]a terrible person you replayed that episode two weeks ago so that's where it why would i replay

[45:55]that episode why well looks like i can never get divorced okay so listen okay you guys might not

[46:03]have a calendar okay you guys might not realize now it's a it's a saturday night this is the big

[46:09]in fact i might have to get up and leave during this episode oh because my daughter is at a

[46:15]halloween party oh geez and it was a party that has a ticket on her phone it's a teenage party

[46:23]she had to give me 40 bucks and she had to get a ticket to go to this thing is it someone's house

[46:29]and it said right on there maybe the most suspicious is the first line on there no drugs

[46:33]no alcohol i was like what the hell am i paying 40 for that's exactly what someone who's doing

[48:05]little bit but unfortunately that is not what i'm talking about what i am talking about today

[48:09]is in fact hey rob i don't i don't rob i can't hear you very well can you speak up a little

[48:15]i actually can't i can't rob i can't hear you can you guys hear rob i can't no i'm trying to read

[48:20]his lips i know he feels like his mustache is going up and down and this is the definition

[48:24]of a punk right now a punk here we go

[48:27]i was looking on the podcast i've got my jokes right when i realized this episode tonight

[48:39]would be downloaded and then it would be seen on october 31st

[48:45]why does halloween he made a list about scary songs he made a list the bit's always a little

[48:52]too long rob made a list what song will be number one he made a list if you don't like it then you

[48:59]are wrong so i went online to find the scariest songs i copy other lists so it doesn't take too

[49:06]long thing this year that's got me depressed it's the third year in a row that i've made this list

[49:15]about scary songs he made a list he made a list this bit's always a bit too long

[49:21]what song will be number one he made a list number six was this very song

[49:28]all right no we did it let's say again let's get into the scariest songs

[49:45]of 2024 halloween because this is coming out right before halloween right before two days before

[49:51]to get ready for this i have listened to the lists in the years past okay now i'm just going to tell

[49:56]you last year i'm an idiot i did six songs i could have saved one of those songs for this year what

[50:00]am i doing okay but i have a little tab on my google keep that is just scary songs i've been

[50:05]filling this in all year so these are the five scariest songs from this year okay who will be

[50:11]crowned champion you put this on a playlist play it when kids are coming to your door

[50:15]uh the first song is a song by elton brit it's called uranium fever what guys can you imagine

[50:22]well i don't know but you're out mining uranium this was a song

[50:27]written by elton brit he did 600 songs for rca records

[50:31]and he once took a break where he went out west and mined uranium and his wife wrote this song

[50:40]a geiger counter in my hand i'm going out to take me some gum a geiger counter

[50:45]now unfortunately elton brit did do what we call the macho man

[50:54]where he had a heart attack while he was driving a car so how'd you find this song rob that's great

[51:00]it is a actually okay it's in fallout 4 it's in a video game so that's fine i mean that's amazing

[51:07]but to me just like mining uranium would be the scariest thing because you know you're just getting

[51:12]listen i don't need to explain it okay a lot of these times i've been mining uranium and i've been

[51:15]trying to explain why these songs are scary man did you think that song was scary this is a bit i

[51:20]did last year man was that song scary to you very scary oh my god i have to not mess around with

[51:25]uranium at number four i have a song that many people have called bone chilling okay it's

[51:31]actually a new release this year and a lot of people had very very strong reactions to this

[51:38]song so let's just listen real quick john show the robin john show we listen to the song

[51:43]crickets

[51:45]that's the point of the robin the scariest thing is sometimes you're actually just trying to do

[51:51]something funny guess who are the hoes it doesn't work at all you're playing the song you play this

[51:57]when you kick the three of us off the podcast and replaced us for a week and you actually said that

[52:03]you you do a new thing where you like roll the dice and you you pick a new pick an old episode

[52:07]you go back and listen to and you told us this in text the other day you said you went back and

[52:12]listened to the episode after the robin john show and you said you went back and listened to the

[52:15]show where you had to look us face to face and eye to eye and say i replaced you guys for a week

[52:20]and what did you guys what did you text us about that week that i was totally oblivious and i had

[52:27]no idea how you guys really felt and to me it was a big joke and i thought it was fun and it wasn't

[52:32]not everything is a joke robert and when i was listening back to it i could tell immediately

[52:37]that you guys were mad and rob in the past was just happy talking and russell i was actually

[52:43]wrong that was not the latest episode of the show i was just happy talking and i was just happy talking

[52:45]so that was an episode two after the robin john show so the tension was still there

[52:48]for after two weeks could have been a double recording that night and that's decided you

[52:53]know we're the guys rob who have to stay up and do two shows with you at the weekend

[52:57]and you replaced us well the worst part was when i asked aaron's brother did you listen to the

[53:02]robin john show and he said what no like it was the dumbest thing in the world that he would listen

[53:07]to every episode of the podcast and then he went into a long explanation of how he's like do i

[53:11]really need to listen to this and i was like yeah okay we don't need to get into why you're not

[53:15]i'm already worried that we lost a lot of people when rob made us record without matt a week ago too

[53:20]yeah it's possible right like matt is our biggest fan base we had floods of emails saying this is

[53:25]outrageous hey that the episode was way too short because matt wasn't there now next up we actually

[53:32]have a song sent in by magic mike 69 he sent us in this is a song by tom cardi and it was released

[53:40]october 11th 2024 whoa okay it's a brunch of dracula

[53:45]and they're all playing the flute

[53:46]that's a scary one of the lines of this song is they're blood-sucking bitches with perfect

[54:07]embouchures zombies with tubas and werewolves and cellos but now wait what's the name of this

[54:12]what's the name of this band

[54:13]this is tom cardi is there any chance that magic mike is also on this song

[54:19]excuse me some of those voices sound a little bit like magic mike to me

[54:26]you think you think he's publishing his own stuff i do you think this you think this is a

[54:31]advertisement i think it's possible man can you look up tom cardi a bunch of dracula's

[54:39]l-i-a-s and see if

[54:43]i don't even know his name i think it's magic mike 69 if he's putting his own stuff out there

[54:47]we might have to take him off i think tom cardi is it no i think he's i think he's an australian

[54:52]dude okay he's an australian comedian musician songwriter actor it's felt like one of those

[54:57]unapologizer familiar how about this though i will say featuring mike someone right there's

[55:03]a feature magic mike 69 only because we follow we need a we need a follow-up to the uh um he was at

[55:11]his reunion right

[55:13]he went to his reunion and we saw there's some pictures there so we need to follow but

[55:16]i did see that magic mike 69 went to like a secret pop-up show of jack white's oh wow jack

[55:24]white and he was just here two days ago right he was at first half two days ago yeah and i wasn't

[55:29]just coming back from work trip i was there but couldn't do it um but so then they're filming

[55:35]and they took the picture of the front of the cover and i wish i could find what the album is

[55:40]but magic mike's there but jack white's guitar is like this and magic mike's face is right behind

[55:46]the guitar so he didn't make it onto the album cover and so he has the worst luck remember when

[55:52]he did that video and then rolling stones like this video sucks balls yeah so he almost was on

[55:58]the cover of the new jack white album but he was behind the guitar so they they got him he's like

[56:03]a yeah i'm just gonna say masters power lifting two years is in reno okay i'm just gonna say we

[56:08]want to do a little live show okay

[56:10]by the way man where are we on that can we get a live show together in minneapolis

[56:13]for the summer sure oh yeah i can be there let me know when you're here i've been thinking about it

[56:18]we gotta do it we gotta you know after after what you know that one time we did that vegas when we're

[56:23]all looking at each other that really works out well no that's not what we're talking about you

[56:28]know it probably could work well rob if when you came to minneapolis you didn't come here and then

[56:33]go up north for three months in a row well the problem is when i don't i get violently ill

[56:38]if i go anywhere else so this is

[56:40]i got it yeah that's that's that's an airport issue i will hang out in the cities with you guys

[56:45]we will do a live show i got we can all have theme songs when we walk out guys we it's going to be

[57:01]have the gates now where you walk in and you can just walk right out with everything but it scans

[57:04]everything when you walk out at the store at the store so you're saying the hudson news there has

[57:10]security devices now yep they got security oh my gosh your whole plan is going to be foiled rob

[57:15]this is why we can't buy shampoo at walgreens anymore too i'm gonna have to come up with an

[57:21]ocean 11s type scheme where i'm in like a box because i've always pictured myself as ocean

[57:25]11 as the guy in the box i would flip around in the vault that was actually me that was the most

[57:30]character the character that most represented i'm like the brad pitt i'm the guy that just eats

[57:33]apples to sexually arouse the viewers aaron who are you in oceans 11

[57:40]sorry i was still trying to figure out if my music is listening to anything you said for 25 minutes

[57:46]i haven't no i got 25 minutes fast i'm watching the bunch of fucking directly this video i'm

[57:51]looking for magic mike i'm sorry rob i'm back with you what would you like to know

[57:55]aaron who in oceans 11 are you uh danny ocean who the fuck is that i don't know is that are you

[58:04]talking about like one or something that's of course i want to be george clooney doesn't every

[58:09]dude want to be george clooney no i don't know i don't know i don't know i don't know i don't know

[58:10]no i'm the guy in the vault aaron i mean i would like to be brad pitt's character because he's

[58:14]eating a lot but no that's russell god damn aaron listen up that's disrespectful i just

[58:19]i'm looking for that was really disrespectful man who are you in oceans 11 uh probably like

[58:28]one of those two doofuses that are like you know pushing the con and the uh yeah yeah yeah that's

[58:34]good either that or like the don cheetle maybe i'll be the don cheetle character you know kind

[58:37]of just tangentially part of it

[58:40]mad is the guy who's racing his rc car against a huge car and the huge car just drives it over

[58:44]it's a great scene now listen back to the scary list it's a great movie okay the next song some

[58:49]people would think it's the scariest song and i found a version by queen from the movie flash

[58:54]gordon okay so maybe if we do do a live show we could just double end it with this flash

[59:00]guys think about this first we do this then we do a live show double header

[59:07]back to the better fans could all be there

[59:10]some people think this is the scariest song of all time oh right there's a lot of people who are

[59:17]too scared even to they don't want to hear it a lot of people don't want to rise up be brave

[59:22]yeah and not think the song is so scary we're not saluting this song russell just three out of four

[59:27]of us have heard it and this is a scary tale yeah man is this song scary to you i mean i'm confused

[59:36]i guess no i don't know why would it be scary

[59:40]i'm trying to figure that out not scary to me it's maybe it's just scary to some people they

[59:44]should get over it because we actually have to have a party and get together we're serious now

[59:48]we're not joking anymore now we're begging we're on the on our knees at this point in 2024

[59:54]naked please scariest song of all and we're gonna see it tomorrow come to fruition it's of course

[60:02]i want candy because as soon as my kids eat their candy that's when the real monsters come out on

[60:08]halloween is after they eat their candy

[60:10]my kids are going to be nightmares tomorrow and then they're going to be nightmares again

[60:14]next thursday rob what's the candy that your kids bring back from trick-or-treating that stays in

[60:19]the house the longest it's like it's like the i know you're not a milk duds guy what's the one

[60:24]that none of you guys eat what's the thing that lasts till the end i think an almond joy almond

[60:28]joy is going to be sitting there till the end of time in this house i would take you know what we

[60:32]had we should rank foods by how long they stay in this house we bought a box of peanut butter oreos

[60:38]and they stayed in this house for a week

[60:40]week straight nobody was eating them that's a disaster coca-cola oreos the coca-cola though the

[60:46]coca-cola the oreo flavored coca-cola lasted five days so that was close okay it was very close so

[60:52]guys that was the list of the scariest songs it's time to get let's talk about the album

[60:56]and parents you're listening to this yeah halloween night you tell me that's not the

[61:04]scariest thing in the world when your kids are fired up on sugar and then they crash

[61:07]and they're tired and they're crying oh it's just the worst

[61:10]oh i need to get a costume together for school tomorrow i need 100 cotton balls or whatever

[61:14]or my kid's costume which is apparently her costume is how i want my wife to dress

[61:21]it's like the one person in my life who's wearing low-cut tops it's my kid i'm like god

[61:27]yeah that's not thanks no that's what you're looking for no that's not what i now we are

[61:33]talking about uh joy division uh what's the album called uh unknown pleasures okay joy division

[61:40]formed in 76 after two members saw a sex pistols concert and they bring in this guy named ian

[61:45]curtis to play keyboards guitar and vocals a lot of people point to this okay you know i say it on

[61:51]albums like this all the time as the biggest post-punk band now post-punk is this idea where

[61:56]it's punk type songs played fast played kind of short but now we've made the sound really sparse

[62:02]instead of being really dense it's kind of like spaced out more experimental maybe some keyboards

[62:07]the only band i could see the other band that we know of that's punk type songs is the one that's

[62:10]post-punk is the cure is what what they pointed out this whole thing is produced and engineered

[62:15]by this guy martin hannett it turns out joy division is actually a punk band they sound

[62:21]like the ramones they sound like punk bands but when they went in the studio this guy martin

[62:27]hammett said i want to make this album about space and he refused to do any like effects to

[62:33]make space so he's not doing reverb he's not doing echo instead they would literally go in

[62:37]different rooms there's a song where the guy's singing down a telephone line and he's like

[62:40]there's one where they're playing in a elevator to get all this kind of uh different sounds like

[62:45]these sonic effects and people have described this album as gary glitter meets the velvet

[62:48]underground wow which i think is really apt because you've got you kind of have this different

[62:54]wall of sound sound and this velvet underground type songs but when you realize this album is

[63:00]about the use of space it really is much more interesting to listen to i think because every

[63:05]song is different makes me think of chade and i don't want to give my takeaway but i

[63:10]hated listening to this album but when you describe it that way i realized probably the

[63:14]guys in chade were listening to this too and maybe this led to that so i got to give them some props

[63:19]you can think whatever about the album you want here but that is a great point now listen after

[63:23]this album comes out uh this is their debut album this is their only album because ian curtis

[63:31]has suffered from epilepsy and depression and the eve the night before they were going to go

[63:36]on their first north american tour because they were getting big he committed suicide

[63:40]and is gone so this is the only album that was released when he that was when he was alive

[63:45]they've got one other of kind of posthumous stuff but this is it so this is joy division let's get

[63:52]into uh unknown pleasures the first song disorder this was my favorite song on the album this is the

[64:00]song they recorded first and they were so mad with how it sounded oh that's funny this is the one i

[64:06]like all right no this is what this is what made me gave me hope yeah right i was like oh my god

[64:10]let's listen to this yeah that's that's kind of what you would expect to happen right like

[64:14]they're they want their music to be a little different so this thing that it sounds

[64:18]what we're used to or is going to be a hook for the normal listeners not what they want right

[64:23]yeah yeah you're right so the production guy stripped down the power of the drums

[64:28]took out the guitar and he actually a lot of these drums are panning back and forth in your

[64:34]headphones side to side and they think this might be the peak of this producer's career

[64:40]listen to this this is disorder

[64:42]played by joy division live listen to what they sound like live i thought this was really

[64:47]interesting oh it's totally a different sound yeah it's pretty thin this is very uh

[65:00]more distortion replacements though yeah yeah you're right i like this and the producer said

[65:05]well a studio album is not a live show and a live show shouldn't sound like the studio album

[65:10]it's a completely different thing so we're gonna play with that i just think this whole thing is

[65:15]interesting that it's that's the point of this album day of the lords thank you the first one

[65:21]did feel like it should be on one of the radio video killed the radio star or what's the what's

[65:26]that sandler the two uh what's the sandler movie that had the two wedding singer the wedding singer

[65:33]remember it had the wedding singer one wedding singer two it had two of the soundtrack that had

[65:38]two soundtracks for one movie i feel like

[65:40]that first song would have fit in perfectly on one of those

[65:42]well we actually have a soundtrack movie song coming up uh but not this one candidate

[65:49]uh is this was a song they wrote when they got to the they recorded this over three weekends

[65:56]and the guy's like listen you're two songs short of making an album now i want to tell you this

[66:01]album is 35 minutes long and they still were two songs short they're like okay we got to write two

[66:05]songs real quick this was one that they came up with because basically they were a jam band they

[66:09]would just sit there and jam and come up with songs like this this does feel like halloween

[66:15]appropriate it's spooky as shit right this feels like somebody's like watching you in your cabin

[66:20]window right like this if we had done this last summer rob you've been freaked out can you imagine

[66:24]a bigger difference between getting watched through a cabin window and watching someone

[66:27]through a cabin window

[66:28]but son i was watching you right rob yeah i mean if they're looking deep into your asshole you know

[66:37]oh my god aaron

[66:39]what the fuck just say it depends on what you're doing it could happen i don't know i don't know

[66:44]what rob does in the cabin you think that he would be unhappy then and i would be happy like

[66:48]haha reversed it oh peeping tom out there better have him look deep in my asshole

[66:52]gold bond on check this out happy baby style that's no joke if you saw me put on gold bond

[67:00]you would never recover yeah peeping tom is gonna learn his lesson

[67:05]insight this is a song it starts with them in an elevator

[67:10]and then it's recorded they actually recorded this down a telephone line

[67:15]to get the distance he wanted for the vocals

[67:18]here's the elevator

[67:21]everywhere do you think the singer is he too far back

[67:35]matt you've talked about this like with the singers forward or back is he too far back and

[67:40]it's too distorted you don't even know or what what do you guys think yeah i mean he's to me he's

[67:44]very far back but it's probably part of it like i've had people explain that they don't want they

[67:51]don't want their uh voice to be the instrument or the focus they want the music to be what is coming

[67:58]out of the speakers if you will and that's what i get out of this it's not for me uh but you know i

[68:04]don't know i mean does this do you think my bloody valentine was listening to this i mean oh i mean

[68:09]absolutely like but i think my bloody valentine kicks the shit out of this album and you know

[68:16]obviously it's way ahead of it but like you know that this feels like it's trying it doesn't feel

[68:20]like it's trying to go but it feels like it's going to get uh slotted into like three different

[68:25]kind of is it punk is it new age is it like the synth pop you know what is it i have no idea what

[68:33]the heck it is is it like emo music by itself i you know i don't know it's hard for me to to peg

[68:39]it i just felt like it was i gotta i don't know it made me it made me want to apologize to rob

[68:44]because it it felt to me like if you took the b-52s and boy pardon the phrase here if you took

[68:52]the joy out of the b-52s this is the band you get oh it's totally true it was tough for me to listen

[68:58]to and i like if this is what you like i you should like it but for me yeah like matt said

[69:03]it's not for me be like if you took the funny out of rob and went to vegas with them how fun would

[69:07]that be oh my god can you imagine like serious robin vegas just like no guys i think i'm just

[69:13]gonna go to bed tonight sorry i don't need that i don't need that 17th cigarette i can't afford

[69:18]this last bet because of interest rates these days have you seen the price of eggs

[69:24]am i a joker to you guys rod oh my gosh am i a jester to you i like to think i have serious

[69:31]conversations have i cloud we have a serious guy in fact i've been talking a lot about the

[69:36]serious conversation i had with rob where he said i finally figured out a framework is just what you

[69:41]do yeah oh yeah i'm telling you at work they were like frameworks frameworks i'm like i missed this

[69:48]class i must have been out for this class in college i don't know what a framework is and

[69:51]that's just a fancy term for what you do and i was like oh i'm in like a business meeting this

[69:55]is a living breathing document i get what this is just dumb shit let me let's just can we all right

[70:01]let me wrap up real quick rosie and you know like what this is like i was all excited for i

[70:05]what i had in my head of joy division was like duran duran and the cure and you know maybe some

[70:12]of these other ones like depeche like depeche mode something like like that whole thing like i love

[70:16]that version of like synth pop you know kind of new age rock i love that stuff and so i was all

[70:24]excited for it and then i heard the first song like great and then i just same was disappointed

[70:29]level tears apart is the big

[70:31]this is the big hit but it's not on this album is that right correct yes

[70:36]but admittedly i don't know this song do you guys know this song

[70:41]yeah i mean i know it but it didn't make my win amp listed college it didn't i don't know what i

[70:48]learned it but i do love this song well we talked about we've talked about this i mean we've talked

[70:52]about joy division with a lot of bands i know we talked about it with um with what was his name

[70:57]uh the guy who did suede head um the smiths we talked a ton about i mean

[71:01]every band like this we've talked about the smiths uh bloody valentine it always comes back

[71:06]to joy division this this band you know they had the death and everything so they moved into

[71:11]to uh they were called new order after this right essentially like a robe order yeah like a remake

[71:16]so put on blue monday by new order once i actually gave that to rob rob is the same band it's pretty

[71:24]much the same but like this without the one guy yes yeah but this is on like uh 93 uh what's the

[71:31]this well this was on russ's this was on by win amp player in college this song is a banger so like

[71:38]this is what i think like this song i hear it all the time this is a this is the stuff i was kind of

[71:43]thinking i was going to hear out of joy division yeah a little bit more disco-y

[71:48]yeah yeah so yeah i don't know this is what i don't know i was excited

[71:55]when i thought we were getting this and then i was like oh boy i was with you too man like i had a

[72:01]fast forward like halfway through it's right yeah you gotta get to the lyrics or go backwards a

[72:06]little bit there we go yes new world order for life for life there we go this sounds like

[72:21]depesh mode doesn't it yeah that's what i mean so that's you know i can't believe it was that one guy

[72:27]that drug him down to the depths of emo world but i think they added a few i think they added a few

[72:31]they added some other people when they went from yeah and this is 1983 right so i mean it is four

[72:38]years later all right you can you keep moving rob sorry now oh don't ever be sorry new dawn

[72:46]phase sorry rob opens with a backwards sample from the song before i kind of like your fault

[72:51]i kind of like the guitar of this well i don't know if it's not your fault but i thought the

[72:54]guitar was just kind of funny it's just kind of a little slow build right there i mean this sounds

[73:01]90s uh i mean all this rock you kind of yeah like this right it's like alice in chains right

[73:08]matt you said alt rock i was thinking about like you know matt you said like this is a band's

[73:14]favorite band right like all these bands claim this is what that they love so i thought we could

[73:19]do a quick list of the bands that were inspired by joy division because we may not be but some

[73:24]of our favorite bands may have been correct 100 giddy up

[73:31]so now the songs i'm going to give you guys aren't necessarily the joy division inspired songs but

[73:36]these are the bands that have said joy division is what guided them the first one matt one of

[73:41]your favorite bands smashing punk nuts totally here yeah billy corgan said joy division is the

[73:48]second most important band after the beatles in the 20th century whoa wow they capture a particular

[73:55]form of nihilism in a way that doesn't feel mawkish or childish there's an adultness to us

[74:01]billy corgan said after the beatles that is the most important i slightly disagree with it i mean

[74:06]that feels like a pretty bold statement but i mean you know love what you love that's great billy

[74:11]i've always agreed with everything billy corgan has ever said so this is hard for me to say but

[74:15]i don't know right i'm just really into that wrestling thing the nwa he's been running for

[74:20]the last few years but he but he said about that that album he said it's not the perfect recording

[74:25]it's not perfectly mixed yet this gives us a special quality that encapsulates the punk ethos

[74:31]yeah smashing pumpkins maybe they don't exist without joy division right they might not yeah

[74:38]man that's that makes me feel like i don't know what the punk ethos is though like i i and maybe

[74:42]and i definitely don't i just feel like the punk ethos is less sort of polished than the joy

[74:47]division album but we don't have to get down that rabbit hole next one on the list uh we've talked

[74:51]about this band i believe we covered one of their albums the band is nine inch nails and the artist

[74:55]specifically is trent reisner yeah yeah this is a banger by the way okay yeah

[75:01]that's great fun he's covered and all these bands we're covering tonight have covered multiple joy

[75:06]division songs on albums on concerts all this stuff i'm not going to repeat all that stuff but

[75:11]trent reisner specifically covered a number of songs and is cited this as one of the biggest

[75:17]influences in all his work so maybe nine inch nails if there's no joy division maybe we don't

[75:22]get closer or any of those songs right that is one of the straightest lines you can draw us from

[75:26]joy division to nine inch nails in my mind it's perfect it's like the next evolution of the music

[75:31]next band on the list is another span that i think we all really like it's red hot chili peppers

[75:36]specifically is it um who's the guitar player john is it for shantae matt you got the right

[75:42]pronunciation yeah he specifically said that this was like one of his all-time bands

[75:48]and so him and flea have it combined and they've like covered their whole albums and stuff so i

[75:55]don't know if red hot chili peppers exists without them too well i mean you think about

[76:01]if you go look at like what the most popular songs albums were in 1977 right probably some

[76:06]disco probably some like really old white rock group from the from the 60s right something like

[76:14]let's look we'll look it up quick and you can see where somebody like joy division like completely

[76:18]just flips you know what you should be listening to and how you should be doing it so you know you

[76:23]can kind of see that i just don't like the album listen to this stevie wonder songs in the key of

[76:28]life and then the eagles with hotel california wings

[76:31]back to eagles fleetwood mac rumors come out that year yeah so if that's what you're supposed to be

[76:37]listening to you know the joy division that's not talking to you then joy division is going to be

[76:41]your thing right yeah so the guitar player said unknown pleasures creates an enormous impact with

[76:46]the smallest means the album benefits from its shortcomings work for work for the red hot chili

[76:53]peppers it should work for us i'm telling you all albums should be 30 in the 30 minute range

[76:57]35 minutes 38 minutes it's a joy to listen to them it's mad i know you don't love this guy

[77:01]but the other band that benefited from this one is you too you too was a huge influence from

[77:09]joy division yeah makes sense

[77:11]did joy division ever push their album out onto my phone no they didn't want it i don't remember

[77:18]them doing that yeah bono said i remember joy division came along and i really related to that

[77:23]because of the moods and the atmosphere and i was actually reading that when um when the gentleman

[77:28]from joy division passed away bono reached out to them and said like we want to listen to you

[77:31]we want to lift you up we want to come in where you guys were leaving this

[77:34]and so you too was also really heavily influenced by this band okay bono reached out to the band

[77:41]and said hey now that you're going to die we're going to fill in where you guys left off which i

[77:46]think that's like i thought was kind of weird that's like what that's like what uh that dude

[77:49]stepped in and took aaron's girlfriend senior high school right when john came in and replaced

[77:54]aaron mad at myself right aaron's aaron's frenching this girl this guy goes listen i'm going to take

[78:01]i appreciate it i'm gonna hop in here this fits into my narrative the youtube is a bunch of scammy

[78:08]last band on the list is not one of my favorites but i know other people like it so i think we

[78:13]should celebrate it because i don't know if they'd be here without it it's radiohead radiohead

[78:17]joy division this is a great song 100 i still go russell i still go back i listen to radiohead

[78:30]fairly often now yeah

[78:31]i listened to in rainbows just today i was i listened to like four nina simone albums and

[78:37]i was like steve what's a radiohead steven morris i think was the drummer maybe of joy division said

[78:41]if they would have stuck around as a band they he thought they would have gone a similar route

[78:45]the way that uh radiohead went down the road so i just thought those are five pretty amazing bands

[78:51]that i don't know if they're the same if they didn't listen to joy division so i thought we

[78:56]needed to celebrate those bands that's great russell great list that's a brilliant list russell

[79:01]so good i love these because top five those are all bands that have been on the list right oh no

[79:07]not the pumpkins yet wait has melancholy not been on the list that's uploaded right

[79:11]come on ron let's hear it ron 341 siamese dream and 341 let's hear about your 401k ron let's hear

[79:21]what you got to say today are you going ross are you going standard you know how do you feel about

[79:25]those uh do i have a 403b is that what i have yeah you probably do yeah thank you

[79:31]educators you got a flood policy on that condo there ron that's the state policy that's the

[79:35]state policy don't give me sorry about flood insurance i live in a goddamn island in new york

[79:40]there's some good delaware delaware llc content related to the sale of the oakland coliseum

[79:45]russell i should have hit you to that i'm in for it oh my god she's lost control she's lost

[79:51]just like rob on this podcast lost control each drum on this uh song was recorded separately

[79:57]because he didn't want any bleed through so literally each drum he hit on its own track

[80:01]it's crazy it's crazy

[80:03]then that's that sort of thing where it's like well now that you know that you want to listen

[80:09]for it but you don't you wouldn't you know you don't hear it otherwise right shadow play now

[80:14]you guys ever did you guys you guys have any good shadow animals you can make with your hands

[80:19]i was obsessed watching sesame street that i would i'd be like i should become a great

[80:24]like the bird right russell's giving the dog oh russell get the dog yeah what do you got

[80:29]oh

[80:31]can't do it like the like can i show you guys a trick one watch this put your hands together

[80:37]like you're giving yourself five and move your fingers a little bit and guess what you got

[80:41]a rooster it's an easy one it's fun people love it good one guys uh booze and vinyl actually it's

[80:49]been a while since we've gone down this route booze and vinyl highlighted unknown pleasures

[80:53]enjoy division and so when do you guys think you would spin this record we've talked about

[80:58]you guys have talked about like great like dorm records if you got

[81:01]this play in your party records this doesn't strike me as one of those when do you think

[81:05]you would want to play that i think if i was frenching a girlfriend my senior year prom and

[81:10]then she left me for another guy then i'd go home and listen to this song it's a great one man that's

[81:16]so good that's hard to top i was thinking if you're having a party and you want everyone to

[81:20]go home you put this yeah get the fuck out yeah get the fuck out rob you should crank this loud

[81:28]to get your wife out of there to go pick up your daughter

[81:31]oh wait i should check my text messages nothing so that that's good it's one o'clock she's not home

[81:38]yet that's fine there's plenty of young like 17 18 year old guys that would love to take her home

[81:46]oh god but what they recommend on russell's frozen russell's frozen yep you're back russell

[81:51]good because what matt just said is going to get edited out i was hoping it does

[81:56]nope just kidding it's not going on side b they recommend a dark and stormy

[82:01]you guys had a dark and stormy before oh yeah it's a good cocktail yeah i uh i i used to have

[82:07]stormy a lot but then i was trying to just make sure that that didn't come up so i tried to pay

[82:13]it off and make sure that nobody ever brought that up ever again she said his penis looks like

[82:20]you know you know me i'm a celebrity penis guy okay remember liam neeson's picture where he

[82:25]pissed his pants and it was so low remember that picture remember when i showed you that how happy

[82:29]we were he said and i quote now let me read it for you

[82:31]what she said stormy daniels hey but just just so just so our younger like so you can you can

[82:38]actually go on the computer and pull up google and then just type things in there right and

[82:42]they'll start showing you pictures is that how it works i think the i think the youth just talk to

[82:47]their phones right or they i don't even know how it works for them she famously said that trump's

[82:52]penis looks like the mushroom character from mario kart okay she says that he that it is i mean look

[83:01]okay so first of all here's the mushroom character from uh this of course is who's the mushroom

[83:06]character this is embarrassing i don't know toad yes okay toad from mario or mario now if we look

[83:12]at toad toad has a mushroom head right here is toad this is what it guys this is what his penis

[83:18]looks like it's got a big red spot on there okay i mean that's that's the most real thing and then

[83:24]if you ever see toad from mario without a hat guess what it's his head terrified

[83:31]toad without his head is terrified all right russell go ahead what's in the drink dark and

[83:36]stormy it's two ounces of gosling's black seal rum which russell which mario character would

[83:42]you want your penis to be best described as and what the hell is there any age on the gosling's

[83:47]black seal room like that feels like a lot of advertising for rum's hard to figure out i'm

[83:51]going with uh mario 3 i'm going with the p-wing i want the raccoon tail wow the raccoon tail aaron

[83:57]what mario character would you want your penis to look like uh bowser

[84:01]wow bowser that's crazy i always thought bowser would be a great name for a dog if i were to have

[84:12]a pet that would be good matt what do you think what character uh i don't know uh

[84:17]you think waluigi maybe he's kind of long and thin you know what i mean

[84:22]the correct answer unfortunately unfortunately is chain chomp okay your penis should look like

[84:29]a chain chomp what is that the chain and then a big

[84:31]head on the front

[84:32]nothing it's not an actual character that's like a thing in the game that tries to stop you right

[84:42]oh okay well i guess it doesn't help you in mario kart 8 so we got the gosling's black seal rum

[84:46]which i'm still confused with three ounces of ginger beer three ounces this is a big drink

[84:52]white meal for garnish wow candy ginger for garnish

[84:58]that's a drink

[85:01]wow okay all right it's kind of just it's it's just a dark room it's like a rum and ginger it's

[85:08]a moscow how many of those things did you have yeah you got it yeah you got it russell so you

[85:12]made it you obviously made it with all that stuff right how much i did not have the gosling black

[85:17]seal rum the closest i could find was meyer's dark rum i used a dark rum i didn't know it was

[85:23]close enough right sure we have no idea and then the same you know and then i used a i used ginger

[85:30]beer but then what i use my sister turned me on to this and this summer we were up at the cabin

[85:36]she ordered a bottle of this lime aid instead of using limes you go lime aid and it adds like this

[85:43]very sweet taste so instead of lime on this one i went with lime aid and it was fantastic

[85:49]wow very nice very nice that's the drink who's in vinyl rob it's back wilderness

[85:54]wilderness

[85:54]all right that's you can hear peter hook's bass and that's good because the next song interzone

[86:04]is sung by peter hook this reminded me of the b-52s i love that idea the b-52s with the fun

[86:10]sucked out no joy felt to me i was looking under the dock and i saw a rock a rock lobster can we

[86:19]stop what's that the idea that this last song the b-52s with no joy is sung by peter hook and that's

[86:24]Joy is ahead of Tom Petty.

[86:26]Get the fuck out of here, right?

[86:28]Get the fuck out of here.

[86:29]This is ridiculous.

[86:30]I mean, we're going to have to start saying ahead of Weezer, you know?

[86:35]Green Day?

[86:36]Tom Petty, Wildflowers?

[86:39]What if I told you, though, that this album ends with one of the most depressing songs on the entire album?

[86:45]With the broken bottles and the whips and the laser beeps and everything?

[86:49]Let's just listen to the whole song.

[86:53]It's like the Undertaker's entrance that you've gone wrong.

[86:55]Yes, the broken bottle right there.

[86:58]It's hard to listen to, man.

[86:59]Oh, we had some good bits for this.

[87:05]This is almost disqualifying, isn't it?

[87:07]This is almost, you've gone too far, you're off the list.

[87:11]Smashing Pumpkins say, we don't even care.

[87:17]You know, they had us stolen from this, right?

[87:19]Yeah, right.

[87:20]They had this thing where they're going over the, going over a,

[87:23]roller coaster and it's just, wee, and it holds it for 30 seconds, so.

[87:27]If I saw guys cover this whole album, this would be when I'm out of there, okay?

[87:31]I will see you later.

[87:32]I am not listening to I Remember Nothing, but we're not judging the songs, okay?

[87:37]We have a popular and patented rating system.

[87:39]No, Rob, you know what we are judging?

[87:41]The parents that allow their daughter and nieces to be out until 2.30 in the morning in New York City.

[87:46]Yeah, I'm judging that for sure.

[87:48]Judging it.

[87:49]Oh, yeah.

[87:51]Rob, I'm on your side.

[87:52]I think it's okay.

[87:52]Okay.

[87:53]I don't know what to do.

[87:56]I mean, you're creating, hey, you're creating some independent.

[87:59]You know what's crazy?

[88:01]You're creating memories.

[88:02]Think of the memories she may or may not have.

[88:04]Jenny and I knew we were going to this party.

[88:06]She asked us, we said, okay, we talked about the ticket.

[88:08]We talked about the drinking stuff.

[88:10]At no point did Jenny and I look at each other and be like, should we set a curfew?

[88:13]Like, it never even occurred to us to do it, but it is my wife's daughter because she's like, oh my God, Dad, this party.

[88:20]And I said, what?

[88:21]And she goes, it got moved back an hour.

[88:23]I'm going to be so tired tomorrow.

[88:25]Oh, my God.

[88:26]I was like, yep, you're getting old.

[88:29]Now, we're not getting old.

[88:31]We're just getting started.

[88:32]We got a double tonight.

[88:33]Is this a rolling well-toned perfect at 211?

[88:38]Is this a rolling bone?

[88:40]Should have been higher up on the list.

[88:41]200, 300.

[88:42]No, that's the wrong way.

[88:44]That's lower on the list.

[88:45]That's a higher number.

[88:45]We're going to lower numbers.

[88:47]Or is this a rolling well-grown?

[88:49]Okay.

[88:50]Well-grown?

[88:51]Well-grown.

[88:53]It's a plant in your garden.

[88:54]Okay.

[88:55]It's perfectly grown.

[88:56]It should be lower than this.

[88:59]Just like a plant when it grows roots is lower in the ground.

[89:02]And of course, now my daughter is calling.

[89:04]So let's see what's going on.

[89:05]Okay.

[89:06]Russell, what do you think?

[89:07]Rolling well-toned, rolling bone, or rolling grown?

[89:09]Guys, I'm going to say this is rolling grown for me.

[89:12]This was one, you guys know me.

[89:15]When I come into these, I'm expecting not to like this album.

[89:18]I'm expecting not to like it.

[89:20]I heard disorder at the beginning.

[89:21]I was like, oh, my.

[89:22]This.

[89:23]I might.

[89:23]I might be able to get into this.

[89:24]I actually heard New Dawn Fades, and I thought there was kind of like a guitar or bass riff

[89:29]or something that I enjoyed, but I just can't get behind this being one of the top 210 albums

[89:34]of all time.

[89:35]There's way too many bands we haven't heard of.

[89:37]And like, you know, I've been going through this thing when I'm buying these albums.

[89:41]Like, maybe I can do all 500.

[89:43]Maybe that's the goal is to get all 500.

[89:45]But I'm like, I don't think I want to pay.

[89:48]I can't pay $35 for this album new.

[89:50]I could probably pay $550.

[89:53]worn and fine as they call it at the record store but yeah i don't know this this to me seems way

[89:59]too high russell there was a guy that was selling the old list yes the oldest we saw that yeah for

[90:06]like 19 000 or something he had all 500 albums and then something like that it was something

[90:12]and then they changed the list and so then all you know i think it was 181 or something like

[90:17]that's the difference the point is like to have like all these great albums yeah if aaron comes

[90:23]over and he's like hey what records do you have and he starts looking he's like damn you got joy

[90:26]division like it would be a killer list yeah right but this is rolling grown this is way too high on

[90:33]the list i don't i don't really want to listen to this again but aaron the the description of b52s

[90:40]without joy is spot on it's the best best description we've had for a band or an album

[90:46]and if you take the joy out of the

[90:47]b52s what do you got what do you got so i'm rolling to listen yeah listen my kid said she's

[90:55]on her way home everything's fine and then she said you know how like money is just like something

[90:59]we made up i'm like i think everything's fine i'm not worried aaron rolling well-toned rolling

[91:05]boner rolling grown what do you think hey man who took all the baloney i see green and you see green

[91:12]we don't see the same color when she comes home i'm gonna offer an almond joy

[91:17]if she takes it i'm gonna know that's my test

[91:20]yeah i don't i don't enjoy these nights where that where i have to say the album was rolling

[91:26]grown but to me it's rolling grown i know that people really love this band and so props if this

[91:31]is your band it's not for me and i think there's other stuff we're gonna hear that should be

[91:34]higher on the list so rolling grown what do you think the chancellor of the portis head guy is

[91:39]gonna be like okay time to look at my second favorite band joy division we're gonna listen

[91:43]to a podcast about that although this one we came with the knowledge i gotta say matt rolling well

[91:47]the boner rolling grown i'm gonna say it's well-grown as you said um should be way i just

[91:54]feels like this this is on here because joy division uh you know influence people and this

[92:00]is their only album so it's got to be somewhere right and so i don't know i don't think this is

[92:04]a great album i think their music is probably great and like their innovation and what they're

[92:09]doing and you know the pivot that they made from punk to where they are now is probably great but

[92:14]is this a great like album no i don't think so

[92:17]i think it is so i'm gonna give it a rolling well-grown unfortunately you guys are incorrect

[92:22]again no this gets a rolling stripped down stripped down hey yeah we got the punk sound

[92:29]it's stripped down almost all the albums i said it before almost all the albums we had never heard

[92:33]of before this list sounds like this album so it's got to be important it's got to be a big deal next

[92:38]up we have nina simone and wild is the win now what you don't realize is that nina simone did

[92:45]much better than her two sisters in her family and she did much better than her two sisters in

[92:47]her family the pinta simone and the santa marina

[92:50]oh i blew it

[92:52]santa maria simone

[92:59]if you love

[93:04]do you think somebody on the santa maria is wearing the buckle hat and they're like oh

[93:13]shit i took the wrong boat back did it you know what i mean hey rob just

[93:17]heads up for our vegas trip coming up i am bringing that those ice packs so you will get

[93:21]to check out my freezer burnt dumplings it's time to say goodbye

[93:29]you know after aaron was done waving to all those kids in the hospital

[93:39]he went to buy a game of risk at the mall yeah so he was at the uh he was at the games
