John Lennon: Imagine (1971)
[0:00]We just hung out for days and days in Vegas. Kind of sitting side by side and looking straight ahead, which reminded me a lot of my love life. Not that different. And we were betting money. And I lost a lot, so that's very similar to my love life as well. How else is Vegas similar to your love life, Erin? Wait a second. Listen to this. How is Vegas like your love life? Do you want to clap first? And don't say... I can't even say it. I can't say it. Erin, how is Vegas like your love life? They're both awesome. Damn. That's a good answer. I don't know.
[1:00]I don't have a lot to expound. Stay up late. You stay up late. Wake up early. You're always dehydrated. Someone's always asking you to go more. You're trying to go to bed and someone is still saying, Hey, go a little longer. Hey, come on. Let's stay up. Let's double down. Let's double down. You're sharing a camera. We're sharing a king-size bed with Dave. Like the first night I got there. So I get to the hotel the first night. They go, listen. We don't have any rooms with queen beds. I said, well... I mean, I felt like I was doing a bit. I was like, well, I made a reservation for two queen beds. And they're like, yes, but we don't have any. And I was like, well... We thought you were doing a bit. This is true. I thought it was true. I don't think you understand. Anybody can take a reservation. The key is to keep the reservation. To make sure that I have a room. And then I said, and then I...
[2:00]So then it became kind of a carry. Okay. And I said, listen. So that's how Vegas is like your love life. Were you like that, Karen? I was. Okay. Very smart. Nice. Nice to me for no reason. She could treat me like dirt. I guess we're friends. And I said, listen, I want drink tickets for this egregious thing. Of my friend and I look at him. We're both guys. Okay. And guess what? We're not one of the 10,000 gay men here for this kickball league. With some of the most offensive jerseys I've ever seen in my life. There was a team who was just called the Tittsburg feelers. Oh, that's great. I was like, so good. That's so good. I do wish now that we had like gone to a kickball game. Like, dude, they, could we have gambled on the kickball? Oh yeah. That would, ah, we totally missed out. For sure. The problem is whenever I see adult kickball games, They always seem to be bunting. You know what I mean?
[3:00]Like I don't see anybody just blasting it, which I don't get. Just wailing on it. Just like sixth grade style. Have you ever been in an adult kickball league? Not a league, but I did throw the ball at a female coworker during a work event And hit her to get around. Everyone booed me. So, oh no. Why would they boo you? That's part of the game. I don't know. Most people were not throwing the ball. You played to win the game. But I, I kind of went up and I whizzed it pretty good. Math style and it hit her at every, everyone booed me. Those foul lines, those fair lines. Right. We're not colleagues anymore. They were probably just upset that she got knocked out of her wheelchair. You know, it's just one of those things. Ah, so then I said to him, listen, if you're going to put me in a single room With my totally straight friend, Dave, okay. And you're going to force us to think about what we're going to do together. Nope. I need at least need drink tickets. He goes, oh yeah, sure. Gave me the room keys left. No drink tickets. Never. I just can't. I cannot be a hard ass and get stuff.
[4:00]Everybody else does. I can't. You should have just said, I'll take the, I'll take the, your biggest suite. I don't know if you might have to edit this out. I don't know if we're certain Dave is straight. We shouldn't assume there's a lot we don't know about Dave. Oh, that would explain all the blowjobs. Oh God. Now you got to leave it in. Oh no. Sorry, Dave. The air here is dry to begin with it. Now I'm this dehydrated. My lips still haven't recovered. My lips feel like sandpaper right now. Let's see him. Let's see. Let's see those lips. Hold on. Let's see those lips. What a good bit. What's your guys' biggest ailment right now that you're having from Vegas? I'm not a smoker, but being in a casino and barely stepping outside for three and a half Days, I feel like I've got full on emphysema right now. I have a horrible cough and it's just not getting better. That's not for me. That's from Joe from Woodbury getting everybody sick.
[5:00]Cause I have absolutely, that's my biggest ailment right now is Joe from Woodbury. Yeah. Last night I picked up the Joe from Woodbury chills. I had to put like 10 blankets on the bed. I was, it was, Oh no. So cute. I wish I was there to tuck you in. My ailment is me nooks. Oh, me nooks were so dry. I looked down at the craps table. My knuckles were bleeding, but I was up by $10. I couldn't leave. I just played live craps real life one time. I looked down, my knuckles are bleeding and they're still, me nooks are still dry. They're still dry. I have a taste of me nooks. Wow. That, yeah. I'm telling you guys, get some moisturizer for me nooks. There's literally no part of my body that has not been negatively affected by my Vegas Trip. I've been tired all week. My urine has been both putrid smelling and a neon yellow that I've never seen before In nature. My lungs hurt for some reason. I think a lot of secondhand smoke. Anyone. Who knows why. Rob, what is it? What would have affected your rolling if you would have seen Aaron putting moisturizer
[6:00]On his nooks while you guys were playing craps? Can you imagine? You'd have to be like, I'm out of here. I'm going home. Oh, when you look over and Aaron is just moisturizing his hand before he picks up the dice You got to double your best. That guy is rolling hot. He wants no friction to affect him whatsoever. Like the fact that I bought Burt's Bees there and I felt like I was so taking care of myself. I felt like I had gone to the doctor and gotten a checkup. I was like, ah, Burt's Bees moisturizer for my lips. My body was like, thank you. I drank. Thank you. Thank you. I drank electrolytes in the morning and felt like I was the healthiest man on the planet. I was like, ah, got my electrolytes. Obviously, I'm doing fine. I knew it was bad the last day when I ate some buffalo wings and some queso dip and I was like, all right, finally some food. I'm energized. I'm ready to go. The impressive thing about your buffalo wings, Rob, was the buffalo wings came to the spot And you said, you guys are going to need some help on these wings. And so I took two or three maybe. And then you got up to go gamble and there were three wings left and I waited because I thought, Rob. I might want to come back and have those wings. And yes, you did come back and you ate the wings.
[7:00]And I felt, again, like I felt like Gandhi or I don't know, someone else, like a good Person saving your wings for you. Mother Teresa. Mother Teresa. You know who was speaking in Vegas? You know who was speaking in Vegas when I was there was Gandhi's son, Lee. Lee Gandhi? Yeah, Lee Gandhi's nuts. All right, listen, guys, let's just. You know what? To be honest, I don't know. It really feels like we just can't talk about Vegas to like next episode or a couple of weeks. Oh, really? We need to recover? Yeah. OK, well, let's. I am still in recovery mode. Let's go back a week then. I'm just going to ask you this. And let's not have a conversation about it. We need to talk about it. Matt, what did you think of the pervert corner episode? What? They're not aware of this. They're not aware that this happened. You didn't. Now, Matt, can I ask you? There's no way they know this happened. Does your phone subscribe to our podcast? You download our podcast. I'm telling you, I just I don't.
[8:00]I've been raw dog. I do not listen to podcasts anymore. Oh, I just I don't listen. I walk. I walk the skyway without any music. Oh, it's a great. It's just there's too much crap going into your headphones every day. What's the last? Let's see. We're making a podcast right now. The last. You know what? The last episode I last podcast to listen to was the Curious Builder podcast because Drew Beeson of Drew Beeson Art was on the episode number 96. And Drew Beeson's a St. Olaf guy who we play softball with. So I listened to the Curious Builder podcast with Drew Beeson. After that, I listened to some of the guys with episode 98 feet guys, Mike Hale. Okay. We don't. Somebody brought that on to it. We don't need to know who recommended that to you. That's a great podcast. Russell. And then. Oh, sorry. I. There is something. Yeah. Then the next one is Beck did a better three days ago.
[9:00]The pervert out pervert hour at pervert corner. Yeah. So don't get that wrong. They have not listened to it. All right. Russ, what did you think of the pervert corner? I saw it was on there. I listened to about a minute or two. I skipped around and then I turned it off. And then the upstairs roommate mentioned that you guys just talked about vibrators the whole Time. And that was about. And then she said, Rob, just kind of redid all this stuff that he did. Or that's not true at all. I didn't read any of my jokes. That is so insulting. We got we listened. We got Patty LuPone in there. We listened to some. Yeah, we had a good time part. It's a music going on. We did look at a lot. Did you guys get good feedback from others? We had no. Listen, no news is good news. No. For sure. All right. Well, at least people weren't calling somebody up and calling them Yoko Ono and cursing their Name and stuff like that. Not yet. Not yet. I feel like you're inviting that tonight, Rob. Yeah. George Harrison did play guitar on this album. So that's something to think about, guys. Talking about vibrators is our imagine, Aaron.
[10:00]I feel great. In 2024, friends decided to listen to every one of the greatest. Jenny just came out and yelled at me and said I was being too loud. So now I got to. I noticed she was putting some Burt's Bees on, too. I know. Well what? I bet she stole that from me. She was taunting you. I bet she stole that from me. I told you the Burt's Bees story from college, didn't I? Where my friend Manuel said, hey, listen, it's really cool. All the cool kids. Because you meet people in college. And they're, like, doing cool shit from cities you've never even heard of. Wait, there's a South St. Paul? Like, I didn't know that. It's pretty close to Cannon Falls. I got to be honest. I didn't know there was a South St. Paul until college. No, nobody does. Nobody did. But the problem, if you ever wondered, there's a West St. Paul. Yeah. There's a South St. Paul. There's a North St. Paul. There is no East St. Paul. What happened to East St. Paul? No East St. Paul. It's called Minneapolis. It's actually called Woodbury. Yeah, that's wrong. Rob, your geography is all wrong. This is why we have to do maps.
[11:00]Never eat soggy. Yeah, I was wrong. Minneapolis is west of St. Paul. You're right. It's actually Woodbury is East St. Paul. There you go. So Joe from East St. Paul and Brian from East St. Paul and Matt from East St. Paul. We'll have to start calling them East St. Paul. That's so good. East St. Paul. Woodbury being East St. Paul. East St. Paul East. You know what? That's got to get a match right off the bat. As decided by Rolling Stone Magazine, this results in a text chain that celebrated the music, Excoriated the order, and led us to make this podcast. Oh, great. Great energy. Great energy. We are far from experts. We promise to do a lot of research. All opinions are our own, unless you disagree. You guys hear Rob? I can't hear him. Please sit. Jane came out and goes you're on a microphone. I was like, yeah, I know. I've got it cranked up higher than the playback. You know that. Please sit back and enjoy. Beck did it better. She is so unhappy that I'm back. You should go up to her tomorrow and say you have headphones for that thing. Oh, Russell. I can't do it. I can't. I think I got nervous just thinking about that. Oh, I like it. Once you watch his Instagram next to me, we are up to album 223.
[12:00]And from 1971, we have. Okay. Oh, I thought you were talking about the thing with the D batteries. And I just it's got headphones. First of all, there's CB. There's CB. There's C batteries here. They're Spanish. My wife's not some sicko using some D batteries. Oh, my God. These nuts batteries. I don't know. We're out of gas already. We're in big trouble. You know, my wife is doing on Sunday. She's having people over to watch a powerlifting meet on our TV. But she and I need to leave halfway through to go to my kid's ballet. So she's not staying at your house. Yes, they have not. She is now inviting six people over. And then we're leaving. That's awkward. What? That's what I said. That's you can't do that. All up in your underwear. That's what I said. That's exactly what I said, Aaron. Exactly what I said. I said, they're going to dig it through those panties. And she looked at me like, what? I was like, I'm talking about your underwear. They're going to be digging through your panties, Rob.
[13:00]Oh, there's a lot of it. There's a lot of service area. So I hope they're ready for really engage with it. And I'll tell you what, I got a lot of different shapes underwear. I got my normal boxers. I got my short boxers. I'm I'm putting in the blue briefs now. I'm getting them all. So wait, what happens when you, so you leave, they stay there for how long? What do they leave? They have to leave when Rob and Jenny leaves. If they stay, they're more messed up than Rob and Jenny. Seriously, they have to leave. I told Jenny. I was like, Jenny, this is a terrible idea. Why did you think this was a good idea? He's like, I don't know. I just invited him over. And they said, okay. And I was like, yeah, but did they know we're leaving? Like if I was at somebody's house and they were like, oh, by the way, we're leaving for My kid's ballet. I wouldn't be like, hey, can you grab me a Diet Coke on the way out or something? Like, it's so, it's so weird. Are they going to walk on your treadmill while they're watching the powerlifting? Yeah. Jenny was like, oh yeah, we have a bench press you can use. Cause they're all lifters, of course. Coming over to watch a powerlifting. And wait, sorry. You might've buried the lead. Are you in the ballet? No, my daughter is. Oh, that'd be even better if it was you. Yeah, for sure.
[14:00]I have to shave my crotch. Cause I assume I'm wearing one of those little dresses. It comes straight out. I can't remember. Mine was so big. They called it. One of those little dresses. Three. Are your weightlifting friends going to comment on how wide your stance is on your clean and Jerk? Oh, well, that's the other thing. They're going to like see my bathroom. That's terrible. I don't know. I don't need that. No. And you know what? My bathroom's fine. There's nothing weird in there. Just let them use the guest bathroom in the hallway there. Oh. That's where we keep the vacuum on the door now because Jenny got so mad at me that I Bought a vacuum that I hide it on the door. And don't ask me about that. Okay. That's normal. Why do you have a door? Why do you have a vacuum, Rob? I bought a vacuum and Jenny was furious at me before we went to Vegas. What? You bought it like last week? She hates having a vacuum in the house. Yeah. What? Yeah. Yeah. I admit. I got high. I went online and bought a vacuum. Sorry. Why does she hate having a vacuum?
[15:00]Vacuums are the greatest. She's always hated it. And I got a nice one. I got one of those Dyson stick ones. And she was so mad that I bought it. I said, sweetie, our place is so dusty. She uses chalk on the bench. Oh, my God. Yeah. I was like, we need a vacuum. And she's like, how dare you? Wait, how has this never come up before? She uses chalk inside your house? Yeah. God, that's amazing. I love it. You guys know I love chalk. Yeah. And everybody's wondering why I can't breathe ever. I'm always stuffed. You love what? I love chalk. What do you love, Aaron? I love chalk. Oh, chalk. What more kinds of chalk? You're saying chalk with an H. He rubs chalk on his hands. I love chalk. I like to do a little now. I like to slap a little chalk on my shorts if I'm working out. Just to get a little extra on there. I get it. It's only me walking back upstairs to my house and then putting the shorts in the laundry. But, man, I love chalk. It looks badass when you have chalk on stuff. It's true. Dude, yeah. We are up to album 223. And from 1971, we have Imagine. By John Lennon. Hey, guys, imagine lending me some money so I can buy a copy of Catcher in the Rye. I'll be holding on to that.
[16:00]Oh, that's a bad joke. For a long time. Listen, let's not mess around. I'm not going to lie. My voice is shot. We're repurposing a song. But I'll tell you what. It's one of my favorite of all time. Okay? And it's for the right album. And it is for the right album this time. And I got to admit, I pulled this move on the way down. I had a middle seat flying down to Vegas. Oh. Left the armrest up. How was it? A couple sat down next to me. Did not put him down. It was like we were turning that pineapple upside down. Okay? It was pretty nice, huh? It was really nice. Pretty perverted. Much nicer than the flight back where I kept falling asleep and leaning on the guy next to me. I'd wake up leaning on him against the window. I think he felt like he was in the trash compactor in Star Wars. That must be. I know you're trying to get to the radio, but a cross-country flight the morning after Las Vegas has to be just like another. In a middle. In a middle seat? Yeah. Like you're on another plane of existence. All these guys were like watching like CNBC and looking at business stuff.
[17:00]I was like, what the fuck are you guys doing? They're working. Yeah. Guess what? They're clocking those hours. We just made money. Ohio State covered. Russell, you didn't slum it back there with the cattle, did you? I'm part of the Hoyt-Polloy, man. I'm up front. Yeah. That's my guy. Two first class guys. I'm stuck flying Comfort Plus. Well what? I got a little song about it. Let's go right here. When I was sitting up there, they just kept playing that Madonna song about the bourgeoisie Or something like that. I was like, hell yeah. I don't even know if that's the right class, but whatever. Bergie. I'm flying first class. All right. Here we go. Let's turn on K-Rock and see what's on the radio. An interesting thing. So I go to my middle seat. It's this guy wearing a cowboy hat. He gets up out of the aisle and I look and the armrest between our seats is up. So he is taking the armrest and put it up. So I sit down and then I have to make the decision. Do I just leave the armrest up and have a little bit more room, but potentially sit
[18:00]Like where we're going to be touching each other in the middle of a flight in the Middle of a flight? Russ plays his game. Russell knows he wants to talk. He likes the middle seat fast when you're great song that it confused me I thought
[19:00]But I heard that song today on the album I thought we must have already done this Help what do we do it was plastic ono band the butt-crack album
[20:00]I didn't want to talk about that air that's one of my greatest I kept it Different we didn't we had a plastic ono band are you serious you said In the middle seat on the cross-country flight yes sucked I gotta be honest I Would I don't know about you guys I do anything to that to go aisle or the Back yeah it sounds just like the guy sitting next to me on the flight I would Go to the back row to take the aisle they were not pleased and I'm sure when I Got on flying home who can you imagine what I smelled like getting on that plane There's a mixture of just so many chemicals getting on that flight no way You would want to survive me oh my god yeah it sucks it in the middle was Terrible I suddenly when a rob looks at me because my body needs chemicals but I don't know which one yet I tried them all try them all listen we are talking

[31:00]Least is due in in March you will remember this is the car that I bashed the door in the second day That we had the car one day one and then also the transmission went out after 2500 miles so of Course I know I'm not keeping this car but I have two months left on the car so I take it In for maintenance isn't a holiday like going out of business I think it like well hopefully not Because I just lease another one so but I got two years it happens oh boy okay we'll find out So I gosh is that true that might make sense that might be why they're trying to get rid of these Ionics I think they're converging well they're already part of Kia aren't they Is this is the car we're headed down a real bad path you guys I don't know Talking about cars I went out to the dealership in September 2024 Hyundai and GM signed a Non-binding memorandum of understanding to explore collaboration of vehicles There we go a non-binding oh wait now Honda and Nissan are merging so okay yeah Honda just needed
[32:00]Some cash that's not a good sign yeah and they needed a little needed an influx of Cash that reminds me when I went to a dominatrix that was a cheaper one you know not too expensive She did a non-binding contract of understanding and I was like actually I want to be bound up Let's find all the way oh that would explain a lot man I want to bind I want to be bound up and Not understood you know what I mean whatever I say so I go out to get the maintenance on the car There's only two months left on the lease but of course they tell me like you got it was supposed To be complimentary maintenance and then there's a bunch of stuff that I got to do and thinking Well I I told them I don't want to keep the car but you know I want to do whatever's safe for You know the next two months so I end up paying for the extra maintenance which was a bad idea so Then while I'm waiting for the car the service I walk over to try to test drive another car because Ours is about to go back and first of all the guy can you believe this the guy goes I walk in
[33:00]It's like 10 15 a.m I say hey I want to test drive the new Santa Fe and he goes yeah we're Just opening up like you just can you just go hang out and we'll come get you the fuck like I'm in a car dealership they don't want to sell me a car so that guy was out but then Back in my day we had hope and cash and sliding car salesman that would do anything to get you In that vehicle yeah not this guy but I I was hanging around for a while longer so I go back In and I end up with this nice sort of grandma type and so she helps me out so I go test drive The car wait a minute wait a minute your car salesman was a grandma type Yeah definitely yeah she was definitely a grandma I would be very nervous No wonder you bought that thing yeah so quick two months before you took forever no I didn't Know I can't buy the I know I can't buy the one because we would have been underwater on the one We have because it's a shit car so I know that one's going back there were great deals on the Ionic So I go I long story short I went and I know this is weird but can you hop in the back
[34:00]Seat with me I want to see if two people can fit back there but she you know she's Trying to tell me like well can you put money down your walker the truck that's right that's right I would be so suspicious can you put money down I would be so suspicious of a granny trying to Sell me a car because I'd be like boy I trust it'd be like boy you could buy this car it's only 10% interest over 36 months with a 25% doubt paper I'd be like well I trust this granny She would possibly RV she's telling me all this stuff like oh your wife's gonna love this You know in the car and then I say well I can't I don't want to put money down Today because I just he wasn't paying for the maintenance and she's like well you didn't Pay for the maintenance right because it's Elise it's complimentary I said well no they Talked me to some extra stuff she yelled at me she straight up yell to me she was like do not Ever do that again why would you do that what are you thinking about and so she went back and They I know they kind of cut me like a smallish deal on it that's such a baller move by her It's like I'm gonna rag on my colleagues to get you I'm on your team now Aaron I'm on your side

[46:00]Oh no no you told your upstairs roommate how much money you came home no how much yeah You told her how much we spent for the uber out to the ranch I'll need to edit that off i thought it was a statement i thought paying $69 was ironic Honestly ironic cold yeah i made plans with the upstairs roommate the day after vegas so the night After getting home the first full day we have plans the next day this is on me this was a Christmas gift but such a mistake like the day after vegas you should never be going anywhere Correct absolutely not i came back from vegas i texted my wife now mind you i've gotten Probably combined six hours of sleep for the three nights before i come back i land take off at Nine land at 4 30 don't taxi until like six text my wife what's for dinner said pasta i get home There's no pasta it's been put in the fridge i almost said to her oh no why isn't dinner out
[47:00]For me when i come home oh i was so close to saying that and i realized it and i was like rob You cannot say why isn't dinner put out she will talk about that forever you just are in A bad mood you just have to go to bed i was so strong guys to not get in a fight with my wife When i got back home from vegas give it up for me very strong so so the night we get the night After you're back we have see what you guys think of this event it's called brazilian heat okay i Like this yeah it's a good start is there a steak involved jimmy golly caipirinius there is we did a Cooking class at coax bellicor in the north hoop it's kind of like they've got like a bakery and It's attached to like a little school so they do classes all the time i've never been to one of These but it was super fun there was about 18 people there they essentially put you in like Three groups of six yeah and you would kind of all take like an item or whatever and prepping
[48:00]All of the things some person was grilling the steak other people were preparing the chimichurri It was a super good time i would highly recommend people out there if you're looking for a fun thing To do go take a cooking class at coax bellicor they do them all the time they do like sweets ones They do like what are those little cookies i bet ron's yeah they got ones for those For those they've got all different types of stuff but i thought i could share with you I was going to say famous amos i was like well that's a killer class i do want to hear the stuff You mean first you're going to get you're going to make little chocolate chip cookies and then you're Going to get a bone dry just get them as dry as you possibly can boom yeah famous amos cookies First thing we made was black beans with coconut wow oh yeah wait wait wait Black beans with coconut yep sounds good second course hearts of palm salad with orange Vinaigrette nice wow okay man's excited he wants to hear oh hey well how was your vinaigrette did it
[49:00]Break or no what did your vinaigrette hang together or did it break well i'm just going to say it I'd hug together i don't know all right disgusting i don't make a good vinaigrette Mine break all the time the next thing we had was pao de kehi o which is a cheese bread Which is amazing wow and then finally the main course grilled steak with chimichurri wow Like it just is not mixed together is that all yeah if you because you're mixing vinegar and oil And you got to emulsify them and if the oil and the vinegar separate then you fucked up your Vinaigrette which is what i do most of the time i have a saying if my salad dressing doesn't have Cream i'm in a bad dream because i do not eat any salads that don't have something very creamy Like if there's not at least 800 calories of something i'm just talking about the science Part you know what an emulsion is how kind of so russell what how did you grill the steak like Did they have like a grill there that you like they had drills there so that we we marinated them And everything certain people on each team grill them they taught you a little bit about
[50:00]Grilling whether you need to keep it out and let it be warm the chef was great the chef's Name was zoey mosquit she teaches all these courses for cooks bellicur but if you can find One people locally you should go go do it wow so then we do this it's it's very fun We walk out they've got like a treat box which ended up having a croissant with a banana in it With like a french silk topping like cream and chocolate on the top which was like a wildly Amazing good dessert can i say russell this sounds absolutely amazing and in no way would i wanted To do this the day after getting back to vegas i would have been so pissed off i would have been So grouchy i would have been looking to pick fights at any point how did you do it russell How are you the hero you know what i kind of was the guy in our group that sat back And when other people wanted to do stuff i kind of just chill oh yeah go you go for it Because it wasn't even within the first like our first item where i had jumped the gun and put Too many things in the pot was scolded by the chef oh no for she says put everything in the pot
[51:00]I'm putting everything in the pot like i'm not waiting for your yeah what the hell so then Afterwards we're going to leave and i'm thinking okay i'm done we're going home No upstairs roommate thinks we got to go to the berlin jazz club right downtown I've told you guys about this spot before mad you would love it we'll have to go sometime But on wednesdays this turned out to be an amazing time i'm going to recommend this I believe it's every wednesday or every other wednesday they have something called the cherry Pit presents bible study at berlin which is an open jam night where you go and you got all These local people from the minnesota jazz scene that are there and they'll kind of Pick random names and they'll let them talk for about them you know a couple minutes Let them figure out what they want to do and then they come up and play and they were playing like Some jazz music a grung group came up and played a dell it was super cool so i Would highly recommend if people are looking for some different go to berlin on a wednesday Night to see like just amateur what called amateur hour but like a jam session right where
[52:00]You've got all these people playing and singing with people that they've never played Or sang with so it was pretty and they call it a bible study that's funny yeah it's so weird Because a jam session is also what i paid for out of that ranch the jam session yeah i was jamming it In there too much the jam so the thing that really did got it over the top was the first Song where they brought up like a random singer they did killing me softly and i was like oh this Is this is wow and the singer was good she kind of forgot part of the words but that's part Of the charm of night like that right but they did have a i would have been so pissed off I would have been so grouchy and tired oh my god i i forgot the lady's name i think she's a local Jazz singer and she came up and sang a few songs and it was kind i think it was kind of a big deal But she said and maybe erie knows this that for all the other aspiring artists there you Should always hold your microphone because you can feel the music through your microphone
[53:00]So that was the one thing that i took away from one of the singers that night at i've never heard That but it makes sense this sounds and i could really feel the energy you guys are giving me At the podcast right now i'm holding feel this or not i'm gonna have a jam session with the Tape with this later so so those are my three recommendations one don't go out the night After vegas to do a cooking class it cooks bellicor three burlin jazz club for the bible study on Wednesday night's rob rolling one i was going with you listen of course one of the best bits we do in Vegas is we take pictures of each other at the urinal now normally in the past can we pull This back rob did this for a while and now you got the other guys in the group in the past I had been surreptitiously taking pictures from when i'm taking a leak to somebody next to me and I say their name and of course when you're at taking a leak in the urinal the last thing you
[54:00]Want to hear is your name you know what i mean that is very bad so when people will look And i'll take a picture of their shocked faces you know it's kind of like a outday art day No realism or whatever and realism this year i feel like it went a little bit too far Because now guys were in there taking pictures of each other just from behind they were not In the urinal so just from behind well the bathroom was full of people well that was the new guy that Was the new guy doing the behind the camera stuff i got a lot he brought some good energy so i'm in the Bathroom and we of course go to matt's famous all you can eat crab legs buffet and i'm telling you Guys i'm killing them just in the past you were throwing a perfect game in the past i used To grab other stuff oh some bread i'll get some of this i get this time just crab legs Rob hold on yes butter when you went away from the table i don't remember who it was but someone Commented that you were like a machine i really like those crab legs it might have been the panda Man who said i think it was panda man i cannot believe how he just bore through those
[55:00]That's like who's panda man he was like how many legs do you think he ate the thing is is that At tops i killed eight crabs i mean who cares you know what i mean like it's so good Crabs are so disgusting i killing eight crabs is not that big a deal i knew it was bad though when I knocked over my cup of butter and nothing came out because i had already scooped up all the butter With delicious crab that was a bad sign so now i'm in the bathroom at the buffet now the bathroom In the all you keep a fay in las vegas is a strange place secondly when i went get went in Four empty urinals four guys waited in line to use the toilets yeah because there's only one Yeah there's only one till it is the smallest bathroom that i was in all of las vegas i Only has one toilet at all you can eat buffet is this some sort of joke is this a sick joke I mean can you imagine what that toilet's seen
[56:00]At this point i do what i always do at the urinal i whip out my phone and i watch instagram videos I think you're the only person i know that actively watches a phone at a urinal I've never seen anyone else do it i see people that work do this and i'm just i'm like What the hell are you doing i got stuff going out i got knowledge going in i'm filling that area with Knowledge at this point two things happened while i'm taking a week on my phone at the all you Can eat buffet while watching sexy women walked out the video i'm watching is a guy squatting And he fails a squad he falls a terrifying and so i i go like this I'm now at the urinal with four guys in line behind me and i go it kind of shudder like this Right when i do that i hear rob and i turn and here's a new guy with this phone right in my face So the people in line what they saw is me going and i was falling over and then a stranger who
[57:00]Would come in after would not nobody has acknowledged you there's a rob and then takes a picture of my Face then both these guys laugh so hard and they walk out of the bathroom after definitely washing Their hands even though they're just peeing i wash my hands when you talk you can't comment About people washing your hands when you're in there peeing on your phone i wrestle i only Peed on my phone once to see what the selfie would look like oh okay and yes it did look Just like the tlc watersfall video oh that was a good enough joke to get us out of this let's talk About the album it's time for nobody's favorite part of the show let's talk about the album oh yeah We're gonna get in trouble for taking pictures in the bathroom we have to like that's just I mean i never would have thought it was a good idea but now that i've seen you do it And now we've got i've got like hundreds of pictures that come up in my picture frame of My friends at the urinal yep it's a it's a thing now listen we're talking about john lennon we're
[58:00]Talking about the album imagine okay we just left john lennon a while ago i think in the 50s with the Plastic tonal man album which had working man excuse me had a working man on it it didn't Have any other i couldn't i couldn't see any other hits on it really mother i think was one Of the songs on there this now this can come my way see what the words what they say mother Do you think they'll drop mother speaking of vegas this one that one was kind of more just him In the guitar this one is a big sound and it turns out because guess who co-produced this It was phil specter you can hear him in the background okay in fact he is singing background He is the harmony vocals on oh yoko which i got to admit has ruined the song a little bit for me It used to be one of my favorite songs kind of tough i'll kind of a bummer thinking about a guy going
[59:00]Oh yoko waver on to 38 or whatever now john lennon actually recorded this with george harrison On most of the songs on guitar he's still going through his scream therapy he's but at this Point he is mad because paul has released ram with a song on there criticizing both him and yoko So he's getting pissed off about that this song the album goes all the way up to number one on The 200 list with the chorus probably his most famous song of all time imagine and like i said Phil specter was on it so let's get into the album imagine and i got to admit guys rolling Stone said this is the number three all-time best song i can't argue with it this is one of the Imagined by john lennon is one of the all-time great songs it's a song you cannot picture not Existing like it just has existed since the beginning of time i mean it's so good an argument
[1:00:00]That one of the all-time great titular tracks now erin i know this song offends you with No religion stuff so talk about that for a little bit what man i listen to this song as a kid i felt Like i was a real rebel right because i went to church every sunday and i was like but i do imagine There was no religion like this i'm really gonna you know like i'm really gonna put myself out of Wow yes one of the best songs we've heard right easily i mean it's a gorgeous song how This doesn't propel this album above his other one i don't know well i mean the rest of the Album is well i don't know there's some good songs coming up but no and so that's what i was gonna Say from here on out i feel like tony hawk because i feel like this album goes way down and then Up in the ending head yeah i mean correct if you could only have one of the albums of his Solo ones you got a you want the one with imagine right yes not even close yeah no question But rustle the rest of this album is i mean i'd listen to it in the living room and jenny
[1:01:00]Was like wow i love this song the other songs come on she puts on the headphones and says what is going On yeah this yeah you play this one in front of your family and they're like why are you listening To this rippled inside this is the one where i just said this feels like he wrote it for ringo Like this should have been a ringo singing out the chair i hear that's a great point but like I don't get what's going on here like no one knows why this is on the list like this whole Album's on the list i don't know i sometimes i think like you really see why paul was important To john you know i mean like paul was just like hey mate let's maybe have a little fun Everyone's a while now make everything so weirdy he's like he's like paul the world Is a gray void that we're constantly staring into and paul's like lady madonna i mean he's Having fun jealous guy this is about how i was trying to like to be under the sea
[1:02:00]Now this song jealous guy was never released as a single until 10 years later what why would they Release a single 10 years later don't talk about my first marriage like that okay it's because there Was a band called roxy music which is confusing they have music in the name of your band and they Released this song jealous guy it's a number one hit in 1981 i highly recommend the video it's just One of those great 80s videos where it's just the guy's face singing so good and then they Re-release the john lennon version and shout out the charts 1981 this is kind of a late release Can we do a mini list then if we're doing covers of jealous guy can we also play the donny hathaway

[1:07:00]Of to imagine who do you think listen to this side like to pair this with imagine a song where He's like imagine how beautiful the world is and then you have john lennon singing a song about How hard his life is what that would be like if i started complaining about a whole hard My life is you know i mean like nobody's going to buy it you know what i i don't know what to Think of lennon in general but i'm turned off because he has been included in the rolling stone Like greatest singers and he's always like number four on the list or something point yeah don't Understand it for some reason that rubs me the wrong way it feels unnecessary he was already John lennon he was in the Beatles they have all the accolades yeah he's already a tight Like an icad and everything he doesn't he doesn't need you don't need to put him there right honestly You know who i think is a better single singer okay i'll tell you the better single is too
[1:08:00]I like to be jenny mcarthy which he was on singled out was a better single now i like some of the Stuff she's talking about now i agree with some of the stuff she says but a better singer is Who's the guy from oh you know what i was thinking of jacob dillon Unrelated singer of lives name lament Dovet's lament who is the lead singer of life his lament lead singer i think it's actually rob You i'm going to pay his first name is ed you're right i got it you know that The wall check what's that man what's that russ is ed you're talking about queen latifah from Living single oh you know who i was talking about actually who's that paul molleter from Hitting singles a lot of them technically those 3000 pit was a triple well most exciting
[1:09:00]Playing baseball i think if i was going to tell newly wed's one thing i would be like Build a counter of how many times you've had sex wouldn't it wouldn't that be curious to see Like you could kind of go back and average it like you're over a year i mean yeah i guess Yeah he might have gone that far hey dad why are there two notches on your bedpost You have three kids and the neighbor is always over here having sex Rob's gonna have another notch in his bedpost after he gets back from his ballet dance and Those people have been hanging out in his house oh my god really without supervision let me be licking All my underwear i'll tell you what if they take all my underwear and stuff them down my toilet and Then flush it and cause a flood to make underwear flavored water i'll be really mad are you guys going
[1:10:00]To use your weightlifting setup like together like all six of you're going to be like lifting Together in your apartment yes 100 we're going to do double side spot we're going to do huge Squats do you lift along with the show you're like okay we're going to lift yeah currently It's like it's like watching the NFL combine you know what i mean you see how many times you Can bench 225 yeah okay i'm smoking i'm smoking a bong out of a gas mask i you know what i mean i I'm so influenced by those athletes do these people know you have like a rack in your living room Or not oh yes oh i mean let me think does my wife ever feature the rack that's in our living Room in her instagram what's that a thousand times a day okay next i don't know it's either that Or a black screen with a lot of words don't i'm not doing this i'm not making fun of my Wife's instagram here i'm not either i'm just she'll talk to me about something i'll say oh yeah i've Seen it she's always happy because it means that i don't want to be a soldier mama i mean somebody's
[1:11:00]Got to step in and be like bro let's have a little fun here give me some truth you can Hear that roxy music was listening to this which we already know because they covered it This is george on guitar he's mad at politicians it sounds like a white album thing yeah he's mad at Richard nixon i don't feel like we're gonna get as many good songs about trump as we did about Like richard nixon he doesn't inspire anger right now i mean he should but people are just yeah Still just like what the fuck and even like there's not even a good country song i would Take a good country song about him you know i was gonna say it's probably because you Don't listen to country music but you're right there hasn't even that i mean has anybody done a Trump shaker parody song i think that could really go places i would work i mean yg did Fuck down on trump but that was probably back in 2015 like that seems like a long time ago now i
[1:12:00]Feel like we should be getting more good music because you just talked about somebody i've never Heard of in my entire life oh my love yg there's a band called yg he's a rapper from la i'd say Because g hello make sense i'm holding my microphone is this thing on oh my love this one is so beatles Ono got a co-writing credit on this now he said that ono helped him write imagine and he felt bad About not giving her a co-writing credit which this one kind of sounds like the Beatles though i Like i like this one sounds like a song i could listen to in my headphones while i was going to Sleep maybe oh erin what if i told you that instead i could put a bunch of echo on his Voice and have him play a loud jangly guitar now i don't know if that's true but i'm just Guessing it is with this song how do you sleep nailed it nailed it now this was a Diss song to paul mccartney oh where he's mad at paul you hit him up talking about how he's you
[1:13:00]Know i don't know what nobody like i mean how would you make fun of paul mccartney what was He mad at him he was mad at paul because paul earlier this year had come out with an album ram With the song too many people taking a direct shot at lenin and ono listen to this he's got it coming Back to us that was your first mistake russell he was in a lucky break meeting the Beatles and He broke it into and shared his Beatles success with ono it's a little harsh isn't it yeah it's Kind of yeah i mean to write a little song about it but you got to admit this song Would be a top two song on this album i think yeah right it's much better right paul mccartney is Such a good songwriter like it's so it sounds good it's fun instead we get john lenin singing how
[1:14:00]Oh come on john this is a very slow album oh i will say oh yoko to end it i think this might this Might be jam i'm gonna tell you right now i think this might be one of the best closing songs we've Heard i love this song so much i know it's not the rushmore soundtrack i've got out of a soft Place by heart for it i mean it feels like it launched wilko's entire career yeah i think this This is like i think i like this more than purple rain i think i like it more i think this might be My favorite closing song i mean this is such a high point in the album if you just took this album And didn't imagine all my love and oh yoko great album not as good as robs parody but still a great
[1:15:00]Song now that parody turned out to be very much truth when i went out and raised both arm rests On the way there and they didn't put it down rustle i felt the thrill i felt the adrenaline rush when They don't put it down revin for now what are you gonna do next training system oh you might even Put it up when people aren't looking that feels a little invasive that feels like i get drunk for That feels like i'm gonna get called off the plane like that person here and so oh by the way I'm ready for that if they say we need to talk to you on the plane i'm gonna you're Kicking me off the plane i refuse to get up you're gonna have to drag me out listen we are exhausted We need to go to bed this is john lennon's imagine okay a boring album with ironically some of the Greatest songs i've ever heard my entire life like it's crazy that we're to the point where
[1:16:00]We're hearing songs of this good that thrust an album like if this album didn't have those two Songs on there it would be like what one billionth on the list i mean it's crazy time yeah but Those i mean but it did make it to number one it was the number one album in the Country and the number one in britain like i know it's john lennon so like he probably goes To the top no matter what he puts out but i mean if it made it to number one at the time That's no joke okay why isn't everybody garth brooks on this list that you know That's the thing i think man and i were talking before the show Our new bellwether is the weezer blue album would you that rather listen to that or this It's all day long it's that i mean it's not even close imagine though it's a banger and it's Not just even a banger it's like transcendent so i don't know what to say but these guys drink Because they're professionals but how can we guide them how can we show them how to make a decision that
[1:17:00]Our fans are going to understand because so far they haven't been able to understand a lot of these Conversations they've been pretty complicated pretty is there a framework were you tight this is a Framework here and it is yeah which is just how you do stuff it's crazy it's now time for the Framework yes absolutely rossel we're shifting we're shifting paradigms right now okay we're Moving to our framework and i got to say is this a wrap just remember You wanted to get this album over with you have the ability to land this plane Just wondering why you are flying you've got you are flying it you have the ability to Land this plane i'm the captain now and you're flying or or we can buzz the tower a couple times You know what i mean provision to buzz the tower Negative ghost rider the pattern is full admission to buzz girlfriends tower Woof that's it good job man thank you for saving that is this rolling well toned that means
[1:18:00]It's perfect at 213 it's a perfect album for 213 i believe it is this wait wait we already Did 213 oh my god we're at 223 don't run backwards okay this is don't take two months off our life this Is perfect at 223 okay we call it in the biz we call it the 22 and three all right kind of like me Playing basketball two times i feel embarrassed for myself two times my teammates yelling me and Three times i have a sweaty guy put his back right in my face we're so tired we need to go To bed land that play drop is this a rolling bone it should have been higher up on the list It should not be this far back we should have heard this already it's john lennon motherfucker it's got A mansion probably one of the greatest songs of all time it's got to be on this list or is this a Rolling groan just like when davie and i were sharing a bed in vegas and i was groaning down at
[1:19:00]The front desk and then i was groaning making sweet love to one of my bros because if we're Not going to do it who is i'm going to do it with some guy i don't even know no I'm going to experience sex with a man for the first time it's going to be with a good friend Of mine that i can trust that's why there's only one bed in the room yeah and it's you know What that wasn't it's it's totally normal to try to get two beds without sounding homophobic At the front desk he did sleep like my wife next to me on his back sarcophagus style So that was nice to look over and see her style head to toe exactly no we were head to head Let's go back to the replacements episode is this a rolling groan It shouldn't even be this high up in the list we don't care for it erin what do you think Rolling well-toned rolling bone or rolling groan imagine by john lennon a theme of your home Coming i'm just made that rolling stone put this decision to us i don't understand how this
[1:20:00]Album is on the list at all but imagine is one of the greatest songs ever written so i can see why It's got a place somewhere just definitely not this high so i gotta give it a rolling groan Russell what do you think rolling well-toned rolling groan or rolling groan i'll go similar Take to erin amazing bookends rob you i was waiting to see what you guys were going to Talk about oh yoko or whatever the final song was that was such a jam that made it fun But i feel like this is one of for my record collection it'd be what i would want to put In the box so when people are thumbing through the like damn russ has got to imagine but we don't Want to put that thing on do we no so i'm going to say it's rolling groan it's too high on the list But dang it would feel wrong i think erin's right if you made it through 500 and that song was not One of the songs played that would be a miss also matt what do you think rolling well-toned Rolling bone or rolling groan imagine by john lennon rolling groan and you know i think He's on here because it's a beetle it's a great song all that stuff but like i think of like
[1:21:00]Paul mccartney and wings band on the run is not on this list crazy and that's got band on the run And jet two great paul mccartney songs post beetles and you know so do we need two post beetles John lennon albums i don't think so kind of a thing and again 294 weezer blue album I would much rather listen to that than this one so i'm gonna say rolling groan unfortunately you Guys are incorrect what shit yeah this gets a rolling sandwich own sandwich own Sandwich own okay i didn't even try to write it well what was i thinking i mean this doesn't Even make sense sandwich i just wrote sandwiching that doesn't even write it on at the end of it They put it on at the end sandwiched with the onion we got a great song at the beginning And a great one in the end but i got bad news for you okay what you're eating there A mental loaf stuff it's a subway philly steak sandwich one of the worst sandwiches known to man
[1:22:00]Sandwich that if you are backed up on two weeks of crab legs it's a perfect sandwich to get because it Will flush you out they just pull loose steak out of a some sort of soggy box and put it on bread And you know what i've ordered it a number of times i love that sandwich that would be something Would it instead of a sex counter you have a subway sandwich counter like how many times have You eaten subway sandwiches in your life i bet i'm over 300 i don't think i've had one since High school honestly i maybe i don't know my dad loves subway it's been a long time and he doesn't Think i know but i know because every time we're driving around he's like we should stop at subway Like he's always looking for his use to stop at subway all the time he's like i don't know Maybe subway then he goes he doesn't stop at subway then buy another disco balls I don't know he goes in he's like chicken teriyaki out of six inches we have an extra Buster don't think of them i'm like jesus christ
[1:23:00]Like the time when we went into a restaurant in rochester and the waitress just brought out his Lunch and i was like what the hell he goes what the hell how do they know this is crazy Oh well looks good to me i'll eat it it turns out he's been going there once a week for the Past 30 years just eating barbecue once a week i was like damn that's the dream come true i mean i Would go out to lunch too if i knew i was going to come home and find my wife with steve that's That's how you land a plane that's it that's landed that's can't land it any better than you guys Having your wife cheat on you with an attractive guy would be so much better than the alternative You think so you know what i mean oh yeah if you go home and your wife's just banging some Uggo you'd be like what i don't even get what's going on and she still is kind of lying there like Making noise kind of acting like she kind of wants it to be over and you're like what's the Difference so what's the what's the scale for uggo like is is a better looking i'm not saying
[1:24:00]In general me but like is that the way you would view an uggo ride if you say they were uglier Than you i would say like if you came home and it was like a fat steve bushemi you'd be like i Don't even oh none of this makes sense you know what i mean like he's covered in hair His whole lot of his hair maybe he doesn't have that vacuum she didn't want oh yeah Can i tell you a house that doesn't have a vacuum for eight years and you start vacuuming It's fucking wild which shows up in that canister you're like god damn i'm dying here I wonder why all my kids have got the black lung all right listen next up So black lung that's what we're landing the playlist that's it that's where we that's what We've extended the bit for is to get to the black lung it's to the black lung joke you could tie that Back to vegas somehow i don't understand how you'd even do that doesn't make sense to me Oh you have to be putting lots of stuff in your lungs in vegas for that to make any sense at all Next week they wrote a follow-up song to called goodbye toe jam that wasn't as good
