[05:07]the dumbest of the dumb yeah you text them back you engage in conversation with them yep they love
[05:12]it they definitely aren't weirded out by uh thinking that they're just texting nobody and
[05:15]instead there's a human man with human emotions okay and gray balls follow up to the inappropriate
[05:22]export for you t-shirt his dad lived in ankeny so maybe aaron has his own t-shirt
[05:27]secret collection of similar t-shirts so aaron it turns out the guy who had and i i think it was
[05:32]a free breathalyzer blow here arrow down that guy's dad was from ankeny okay oh really maybe
[05:38]he got in the strawberry patch out there off of delaware they got a lot of good oh yeah oh yeah
[05:43]i got you pointed with your thumb like we're all like looking behind me like a delaware over there
[05:47]all right it was like state street now sorry not delaware it was other direction it was off
[05:51]state street still in business strawberry patch oh let me update my google maps yep you got it
[05:57]behind or don't kick aaron off podcast uh so aaron what is the strawberry patch in ankeny it's a place
[06:02]where you got your dirty shirts like uh it's a you know honestly they probably didn't have that
[06:06]many dirty t-shirts maybe it was like i bet it was like a behind the counter kind of thing no it's
[06:10]like it was like where when your softball team was getting jerseys printed up you went and did
[06:15]them at the strawberry patch or you know it's like baseball season you're gonna get your number on
[06:18]the back it's the you know you take them out to the strawberry patch and they get it done for you
[06:22]so this but we just found out that this gentleman was from ankeny
[06:27]the dad of the job oh my god the story okay so the guy comes into the hot tub repair shop or
[06:32]wherever this lady was working right and he's got i think it was a hot tub repair shop if i remember
[06:36]and then he's got he has broken up with her right and he's like here's how i picture it he's at the
[06:42]hot tub they're at the hot tub repair shop somebody's going listen this hot tub doesn't
[06:45]work for shit i brought it in can you fix it they're looking at they're like i don't know
[06:49]we could take a look at it but this is a we're backed up we got hot tubs all over the place
[06:52]uh and this boyfriend comes and goes baby please i need you back and meanwhile he's
[06:57]wearing a breathalyzer uh free breathalyzer blow here with arrows pointed down uh to his
[07:02]genitals implying oral sex uh and then he says oh okay you're gonna break up with me well better
[07:08]go visit my dad in ankeny then he drives there yeah honestly you know what i'm i shouldn't have
[07:13]dragged the strawberry patch through the mud on that one that was probably purchased somewhere
[07:16]closer to like say dell out off of highway 69 that wasn't really that's not really an ankeny
[07:20]style t-shirt you probably had to go outside of town for that yeah ankeny has a no dirty t-shirt
[07:25]rule somebody did text us by the way
[07:27]a pair of boxers that say release the kraken on them oh i like that i was thinking that would
[07:32]be so much pressure wouldn't it it would be instead of like is this a pencil eraser you
[07:40]know something like that like it's the kraken i'm sorry to disappoint you but we made it this
[07:46]far we might as well keep going like it's a lot to fit on a pair of boxers but we also got a
[07:51]voicemail and guess what it's a recent voicemail from joe buck yeah try to guess if this person
[07:56]is drunk or not
[07:57]okay hi i have a question this is krista does it make it easier to record your songs for
[08:06]before the episode when your shirt is off does that make it easier or harder that's all i'm
[08:15]wondering to record the parodies bye yeah so uh matt tonight was out to dinner with uh said guest
[08:22]on the show or said super fan of the show he gave me a yeah he gave me he gave me a facetime call
[08:27]dumb shit said said dumb shit listener he gave me a facetime call so of course i picked up because
[08:31]i was like oh facetime call this must be an absolute emergency uh and like with so many
[08:36]podcast interactions they saw me with my shirt off and said oh my god why is your shirt off and
[08:39]i'm like well it's 10 o'clock in my house like i i can kind of do what i want and then i told them
[08:44]hey i'm working on a parody song do you want to hear it and they were kind of like no and then
[08:48]that was it that was the whole conversation that has to be a bummer for you rob you had to be super
[08:52]excited thinking they were going to be pumped to hear your parody song and then when they said
[08:55]that it'd be killer for you didn't it i i have high expectations because every time i play my
[09:00]parody songs you guys laugh your ass off like you guys think it's so funny and then i play for other
[09:04]people and they're like who's russell what's the advice corner i'm like oh yeah that's right you
[09:07]need to only listen to uh 68 episodes before this one to understand what the hell i'm talking about
[09:12]and start at episode zero it's fantastic i did go down a huge rabbit hole though russell when you
[09:17]said oh go listen to the christmas uh introduction song and see if you laugh your ass off and sure
[09:23]enough i did right away i laughed my ass off public service
[09:25]announcement to all of our listeners go back listen to the christmas episode the first four
[09:30]minutes 12 days of the terrible podcast feed it's a great parody song check it out so then i listened
[09:36]to that and i listened to a couple other intro songs and i just thought to myself i'm not doing
[09:39]nearly as well now what i'm doing now is not as good as these and then i got depressed again so
[09:44]thank you so much even listening to like stuff i'm proud of i was like i'm actually garbage this
[09:48]is no good so oh sad oh no that's my life so are you guys not going to comment on the fact that i'm
[09:54]not wearing a shirt now have i ever said that i'm not wearing a shirt now i'm not wearing a shirt now

[10:38]you rolling going rob you mentioned going to the advice corner guys i need advice on multiple parts
[10:44]of my life i need to go to the corner i decided to hit the sound clips faster there's a lot of
[10:50]like downtime when i'm looking for the clips so i'm just going to hit them as soon as i think
[10:53]you want to hear them okay
[10:55]okay rob sometimes i use silence all i want to do is make love oh i thought you wanted that one
[11:01]that's my bad yes every time i put my hand up i want to hear that one again wait did you want it
[11:06]did you say that you wanted to hear uh a great beavis and butthead impression yeah
[11:10]i isolated this from last week's episode
[11:16]how are you supposed to do a beavis and butthead impression let's hear yours
[11:22]let's hear it here we go let's hear it rob
[11:24]he said six pence
[11:27]that's pretty good that's pretty good bad is that good or what okay but wait a minute that's
[11:33]excellent i wanted you to hear russ's beavis impression at the end of this listen to this
[11:37]impression what is that isn't that a beavis impression they laughed differently they didn't
[11:43]laugh the same that's but it wasn't like it's true there what do you think it was
[11:48]what was your impression of it i actually only did the impression of the neighbor
[11:54]oh you boys whacking it in my trailer stuff like that okay this wasn't even funny like 15 years ago
[12:00]what at 15 i'm sorry i meant 30 years ago when i did it at first so i apologize russell what's
[12:05]your rolling going speaking of acts that were were famous 30 years ago matt i don't know if
[12:10]you're going this sunday night but the rolling stones are in town and they're going to u.s bank
[12:14]stadium and i needed to get advice from you guys on the right way to go to a concert matt you go
[12:19]to a concert slot aaron you've been to a bunch rob you've been to a bunch of them you guys have
[12:22]been to more than me so i need to get your advice on how do you go to a concert my first question
[12:26]was when i'm looking at the ticket prices they're just insanely priced for the lower deck like
[12:31]you've got to pay three four five hundred dollars if you want to sit in the lower deck so the
[12:36]question is is it worth it to pay all that money to sit in the lower deck or can you pay like the
[12:41]80 and sit way up in the nosebleeds at a football stadium for a concert i will answer that at u.s
[12:52]anything that is a two or three in front of it and as far as the section just forget about it there
[12:58]is no acoustics in that place it is horrible you need to sit lower you need to sit as low as you
[13:04]can and as close to the stage which has the speakers on either side of it there's some
[13:08]speakers behind you you absolutely need to sit in and i'll tell you i don't know if you've been
[13:12]watching russell but i've been watching hourly all these tickets are going because they were 396
[13:18]for like the best seats with fees or without fees
[13:22]without fees yeah and so then you know i mean you know add another 70 bucks to that
[13:26]396 it's super expensive there's so many seats remaining right the tickets can only go back down
[13:33]well in the last at about six o'clock this evening some of the sections about half the
[13:38]sections that were 396 went down to 246 so just wait it out russell did you realize you're talking
[13:44]to the rain man of ticket sales over here i kind of figured that's why i brought it up
[13:47]about two hours before the concert so when is the
[13:52]time to buy tickets for a concert two hours before how many people are you going with how
[13:57]many tickets do you need to buy under three under three so okay so more than one more than one but
[14:03]not but under three somewhere there yeah yeah well that makes the difference in how much you
[14:09]pay to go to a concert if you're buying one or multiple tickets right if you're going under three
[14:14]but over one yes you wait till about two hours before if you're going with under two but over
[14:19]zero then i would wait till about four and then i would wait till about five and then i would wait
[14:22]five minutes before that thing shuts off i can tell you my daughter and i went to get harry
[14:27]styles tickets outside of madison square garden so we just went and sat outside here madison square
[14:31]garden and everybody you know it's kind of fun because everybody was dressed up going in and
[14:36]then the scalpers came out and my daughter's like what's going on i was like oh these guys have fake
[14:40]paper tickets and sure enough we saw somebody buy some and then try to get in get denied and
[14:45]then the cops came looking for whoever sold it to him my daughter was horrified that people she's
[14:49]like what you can't do you can't just sell fake tickets and i go yeah this is a good lesson you
[14:53]cannot just go down to madison square garden and buy tickets they can't get in with the fake
[14:57]tickets i said no and we can't get in either because these are too expensive so let's get a
[15:01]slice of pizza and go home she's like oh no you took your daughter to the concert hoping she was
[15:05]going to get in then you said we can't go and you left yep cheapest ticket was 350 dollars russell
[15:10]and she doesn't hate you forever for that no what no i because i said there's a there's a 10 chance
[15:15]we're getting in there's almost no way is that okay she said daddy fat stacks denied his daughter's
[15:19]daughter going into guys i am not paying 700 to see fucking harry styles i i barely know one of
[15:27]his songs rob knows her love language is quality time so as long as she's hanging out with rob
[15:31]she's good he can take her anywhere any kind of disappointment she'll deal with it as long as she
[15:36]gets to hang out with rob he knows that he's a super and it was fun outside when i said to the
[15:39]crowd oh my god there's harry styles and everybody ran and then i laughed you know i need some more
[15:45]advice from you guys so now i got it figured out i gotta wait for two hours before if i get in there
[15:49]dumped right before the concert i can wait until five minutes before the concert and then i
[15:53]write this down i gotta figure it out so the next question i have is there has been a change in
[15:59]restaurants now a lot of restaurants charge what's called a service fee if you guys go out to eat or
[16:04]you go out to a drink restaurants now charge a service fee and so i know a lot of them do this
[16:09]normally i just ignore it i just tip on top of it i don't even think about it but the other night i
[16:13]went out for a nice dinner and there was this service fee tacked on 22 percent and it specifically
[16:19]says this is not a gratuity but it goes directly to the staff to provide whatever sort of wage
[16:25]and so then i had this moment i'm like wait what am i supposed to do are you supposed to tip on top
[16:30]of the service fee do you provide no tip or do you provide a smaller tip what do you tip because
[16:36]those restaurants are lying they are 100 telling lies so you should what do you mean they're not
[16:43]giving that money to the staff it's happened many times there's hundreds of news stories about
[16:47]restaurants who are charging service fees and then they're not giving that money to the staff
[16:49]they get sued over wage theft because they weren't actually paying that to their employees
[16:54]so you can't trust restaurants they're shady business i love restaurants i love food but
[16:58]they're shady business so they're lying you got a tip and you can ask a lot of aaron's ex-girlfriends
[17:02]about what they think about a little tip you know they don't like because they work in the service
[17:05]business that's what i mean and they don't like it you know it's no good matt you used to run a
[17:11]restaurant did you ever charge these service fees no different times i mean you know i i think of it
[17:19]they have to they just have to have these if they're going to stay open right i mean and like
[17:25]provide health insurance and stuff like that i don't know i mean that that's just the times
[17:30]we're in right and i don't know i just it's not fun it doesn't feel good to be paying these things
[17:37]but at the same time i i'm like i'm like aaron i love going to restaurants and if that's the price
[17:43]to to get in right now then that's what we've got to do i don't know we're really at the stage where
[17:48]if you go somewhere and you're not paying for the food you're not paying for the food you're not
[17:49]you think something's going to cost a hundred bucks it's really going to cost with tip service
[17:54]fee tax almost 200 right it's almost like you're buying it's like you're buying uh rolling stones
[17:59]tickets oh yeah you just yeah i mean you can't save money unless you stay home
[18:04]i'm thinking about picking a fight not having to bring someone else to this concert just so it's
[18:10]a little cheaper that happened to me russell when i was going to climb mount everest i got there
[18:14]and they called they they charged me a whole bunch of extra sherpa's fees
[18:19]okay so aaron walked away from the zoom he was the only one wait till he comes back here
[18:24]sorry i had to check uh there's a leak in my garage roof i had to make sure my bucket is in
[18:28]the right place okay well you can pull your pants back up okay you don't need to take a leak in your
[18:32]garage right now we're doing a podcast for god's sakes uh did you hear that aaron i said sherpa's
[18:37]fees i heard it yes oh shit so desperate for laughs i'll provide them rob was that a sure
[18:49]puffy joke that i missed or not is this a sherpa's feed russell loves it listen to this
[18:56]sherpa's fees he thinks it's so funny oh
[18:59]oh they're really good to be there the last thing i had to ask you guys when you go to restaurants
[19:07]are you dessert guys you always have to get a dessert i know rob you you're an ice cream guy
[19:12]that's all you can have but you guys get dessert and then the question is have you ever been to a
[19:17]nice restaurant that has mini donuts on the menu as a dessert and you're like oh my god i'm going to
[19:19]dessert and would you get them in that situation oh wow 100 i have been to a restaurant with uh
[19:25]mini donuts and 100 i have gotten them with some chocolate they have different dipping sauces
[19:29]usually like a little chocolate dipping sauce yum yum yum love mini donuts the fact that you do you
[19:34]do kind of have to wonder like paying 15 when i'm like i'm kind of used to like two dollars
[19:38]i'm kind of used to paying like two dollars for a bag at the fair where i can wash it
[19:44]flipped into the oil but okay whatever that's what i thought i was like i don't think we should
[19:49]get it
[19:49]at some fancy restaurant you can get these anywhere then then the waiter that i probably
[19:55]under tip now now that i know the rule about service fees he brought us out uh an order of
[20:01]mini donuts just on the house and they were amazing mini donuts are great no matter where
[20:05]you go i can tell you the number one problem not the number one problem in my marriage right now
[20:09]uh but it's up there is that well jenny has gone dessert crazy okay when we go out to restaurants
[20:15]now she will order at a minimum two desserts
[20:19]and once we were out the four of us okay me two little kids my wife she ordered four desserts
[20:26]there were four desserts on the menu she could not decide which ones she wanted so she ordered
[20:30]all of them it was obscene okay and of course everybody looks at me as the big guy like oh
[20:35]four desserts i'm like i don't want any desserts i don't want this is my wife she has lost her
[20:40]mind and then she has like a bite of each she's like oh these are so good i'm like this was like
[20:44]an extra hundred dollars these four desserts what are we doing no service fee i'm generally not a
[20:48]dessert guy i will typically uh just have another whiskey instead of having a dessert but uh i would
[20:54]make it i would make an exception for the mini donuts if i went somewhere that had mini donuts
[20:57]do you really not get desserts no not usually yeah usually what what about appetizers drink instead
[21:03]well yeah i mean depending on how hungry i am are you rocking appetizers or desserts if you have a
[21:08]choice you got to have one for the rest of your life you can't have the other which one are you
[21:11]picking oh appetizers i'm a savory guy like i would do pizza over sweets any anytime matt is
[21:16]pizza an appetizer he just said pizza is an appetizer what the fuck is he talking to pizza
[21:20]can be an appetizer or dessert oh just depends on you know what kind of evening we're talking about
[21:27]here that sounds like real loser talk it's like well better have a pizza appetizer matt what are
[21:32]you appetizer or dessert guy um i'm you know a little bit of both i guess you know like i think
[21:38]i would prefer an appetizer but you know those one or two times out of every 10 times you go out to
[21:45]dinner that you get a dessert man that's pretty darn good you know we were talking about this
[21:48]like you know like the 27 layer cake i mean you could have like four bites of that yeah you don't
[21:54]have to eat all 27 layers you can have like seven layers can i do like four can i do three or four
[21:58]layers please you know that's all i want i'm gonna speak for our audience when i say that you guys are
[22:02]fucking morons you would choose appetizers over desserts that's the dumbest shit i've ever heard
[22:06]oh i love deep fried shit get the fuck out of here give me a cake give me some ice cream
[22:12]and some more ice cream here we go yeah i'm just
[22:15]i would much rather i mean what's the best appetizer that you guys think what's the number
[22:19]one a tier appetizer you think about it every time and i know russ is gonna say pork belly but
[22:25]what are you guys gonna say it's got to be a terrible charcuterie board right it's got to be
[22:28]a bunch of fucking nuts and ham and cheese on a plate on a wood plate put some olives on there
[22:34]maybe some jelly bread yeah a couple spreads yeah i like it i'm gonna go with the i'm gonna
[22:40]i'm gonna go with the the deep fried i like samosas samosas with like a lot of cheese and
[22:45]like a nice curry dipping sauce that's the best appetizer that's not fair you say samosas and then
[22:50]i say it's bad and then i look really bad saying that that is so not fair that's actually culturally
[22:55]insensitive against me who wants to rip on samosas okay that's terrible that you would put me in this
[23:01]position i'm outraged aaron and you're going to compare those things that you just said to like
[23:04]a great banana cream pudding with some nilla wafers in there oh give me that right now i
[23:10]didn't realize we were talking about nilla wafers now yeah oh guess what you can't have any because
[23:15]desserts and that's the decision you made in my scenario that i made up idiot dumbass i've never
[23:20]actually been this mad at you guys on the podcast as i am now that you guys would rather have
[23:23]appetizers than desserts hey rob rob look at me i get the appetizer and the dessert well yeah
[23:29]obviously i do too i mean i'm not an animal i do what i want aaron and matt have some discipline
[23:34]the rest of us fuck that noise i've got a great job and i tricked a doctor into marrying me i can
[23:38]have both if i want guess what mom and dad i order out
[23:45]unless it's going to the harry styles concert then i'm like nope no dessert no appetizer no nothing

[23:56]what my daughter did she watched the concert on instagram live so i was like well there you go you
[24:01]just watched the concert anyway what's what's the big deal she's like oh yeah i've watched a bunch
[24:04]of these like why are we doing this this seems like grounds for for multiple problems with your
[24:10]kids going forward taking them to a concert and then saying but we'll actually we're not going in
[24:15]on my phone that seems like a bad way to go through life we'll see how it works for me on
[24:20]sunday when i try it i told him myerson square garden closed i was like oh no it closed we got
[24:24]to go uh rosie rolling going how's it going with you oh it's going great i have a few things to
[24:29]discuss but i want to actually uh i want to actually piggyback on russell's rolling going
[24:35]and ask i have a similar conundrum i really need to see dune should i see it in the theater or
[24:41]should i stay home and see it on hbo max thanks to one of our listeners for my parroted subscription
[24:46]can i tell you can i tell you right now that uh you should go see it in a 4dx theater have you
[24:52]been in a 4dx theater yet no i've never heard of such a thing i took my daughters the other day and
[24:57]we saw um shangas shang no that doesn't come out till february i texted my daughter today and says
[25:03]hey jackass doesn't come out till february she was so mad she was furious but we went and saw uh
[25:08]shang chi the legend of the rings and these seats shang chi the legend of the rings and these seats
[25:09]shang chi the legend of the rings and these seats shang chi the legend of the rings and these seats
[25:09]shang chi the legend of the rings and these seats shang chi the legend of the rings and these seats
[25:09]and these seats you go in and you sit down and the seats move around anytime it moves they spray
[25:16]air on you they spray smells at you they spray you with water when it goes in the water there's
[25:20]lights flashing there's fans blowing it i there was four people i spent like 120 bucks best money
[25:27]i've ever spent in my life i will not go see another movie that is not throwing these seats
[25:32]moved around so much that my popcorn flew out of the chair thing that it was being held in like
[25:37]that's how much i was getting flung around it was
[25:39]awesome it kicked ass you need to go see it in a 40x theater now okay bring your kid it will
[25:45]terrify them good advice i don't want to i do want to hear from uh russell and matt on this and i don't
[25:51]want to be the first one to take it there but um so when you go see porn in the 40x theater what's
[25:55]what's that experience like yeah well i can tell you the motion gets it does make you a little
[26:01]seasick uh but the smells are great you know i thought what so matt matt i heard a vote for
[26:08]theater from you well i've heard i've heard a lot of people talking about this that the
[26:15]sound effects at the movie are unbelievable okay you can't i mean any home theater that you have
[26:21]yeah not gonna cannot do it any sort of justice right like you absolutely need to go to the
[26:25]theater to just experience the sound all around you so love it good that's just what i've heard
[26:31]yeah thank you plus i think in a movie theater in theory you could get an appetizer and a dessert
[26:38]food at a movie theater some nachos some nachos and some milk onion rings all at the same time
[26:43]get some candy then you go see the movie i think you got to go to a theater for a movie you really
[26:48]want to see it's an experience it's a thing you're not like pausing your you're not sitting
[26:53]back on your peloton and watching it like suzanne or susan or whatever her name was was on the
[26:58]podcast weeks ago we haven't heard any comments about her since that first week she wasn't that
[27:03]popular rob did not have a long tail did not stick around if you're just walking watching it home
[27:08]with the family it's not an experience if you go into the theater you you find a spot you get some

[31:46]aaron's rolling going there that was great whoever did that i appreciate it yeah yeah
[31:50]edit good job russell command e to edit that part out okay here we go
[31:54]uh i got i got it you know i i didn't prepare much this week i just i no i had a very boring
[32:02]question compared to the rest of you guys we're gonna make it fun okay well i kind of figure it's
[32:06]dessert versus appetizers because i have strong opinions and i think i've changed my mind i have
[32:11]been back to the office uh for a couple months now and i'm walking around the skyway system of
[32:18]minneapolis right yeah just at night or in the middle of the day you got to get some exercise
[32:23]things like that right and so what is your each of you what is your and rob i'm waiting for yours
[32:31]because you live in new york i you know i i have this thing where i have to kind of like look at
[32:35]everybody and say hi if they're looking at me i'm like oh my god i'm like oh my god i'm like oh my
[32:36]god i'm looking back at me i can't just keep walking by him without like at least giving like
[32:41]a little bit of a little look there's just even just a little head nod and then just kind of give
[32:46]a uh hi how you doing if i catch their eye what is your guys when you're passing by people on the
[32:52]street are you just head down go forward don't talk to them or do you give a look i when i'm in
[33:00]new york city i love to get stabbed so i love to go around and talk to everybody and say hey how
[33:04]are you doing how are you doing how are you doing i'd love to get my hair done i'd love to get my hair
[33:06]done i'd love to get my ass kicked on a daily basis so i know of course i don't say anything i
[33:10]don't look at anybody i look where i'm going so they don't get in my way and that's about it you
[33:14]will get your ass kicked in new york city if you walk around saying hi and i know that because
[33:17]every time i come from minnesota it takes me a couple days not to walk into like a store and be
[33:20]like hello everybody's like what the hell is your problem i'm like oh hello sorry how does that go
[33:26]again rob hello like that yeah oh exactly i'm like hello i'm here to buy the new by the way
[33:32]did you know christmas trees reese's peanut butter cups are out too early rob could you do the hello
[33:36]a few more times so i can write a note down for a closing joke so i can come back to this
[33:41]you do one more time hello hello okay i generally say hi to people as well matt if i'm walking down
[33:47]the street but i had i had a thought about this this week too where uh my son and i were out on
[33:53]the street in front of our house where he rides his bike he's like usually after he comes home
[33:58]from school we he likes to ride his bike around the street and it's a small street pretty quiet
[34:03]and we don't know what are you drinking while he's doing this aaron you're drinking not
[34:06]this time but sometimes uh sometimes i drink a beer out there but this time i was not i knew it
[34:11]aaron's the dad of the beer out front his kid's building like a jump out of like lumber with his
[34:16]bike is like that's a fucking kick-ass jump i love that jump and we're standing in the street
[34:22]and a and a guy started like i saw a guy at the end of the street walking his dog so he's walking
[34:27]toward us and the awkward thing for me is when do you say hello right because we see the guy we're
[34:36]we clearly see each other but it would be weird if i waved and said hello like when he's 50 feet
[34:43]away no how do you say the moment where we actually acknowledge each other even though we're the only
[34:47]people on the street and we are clearly gonna say hi when do you actually say hi that was that was
[34:52]a tough one were you wearing a shirt or no shirt sure a shirt you had a shirt on yep no beer that
[34:57]changes everything that changes the whole equation so aaron let me ask you this are you a human or
[35:02]are you a robot who has just been heard about humans like what is your problem you don't know
[35:05]when to say hi to somebody like you just
[35:06]look and go hey then they go hey and then that's it like it's like you make eye contact from you
[35:11]know 50 100 feet away that's too early to say hey you gotta wait till they get a little bit closer
[35:15]to say hey when they can hear you and you know you can speak yell at it from a long distance
[35:19]the solution i've reached the point in life where i almost wear headphones everywhere i go now
[35:25]i've got earbuds and if i go to the grocery store i got earbuds in if i go anywhere where i'm by
[35:32]myself and i'm just walking somewhere like if i were in the skyway man i've got earbuds in
[35:36]So people aren't going to expect to like have any sort of hello moment with me.
[35:41]But what I do is I give them like the nod and like the point, like the point, like a,
[35:45]Hey, I was like, like a little salute.
[35:47]Like we talked about before.
[35:48]I do a little salute, a little nod, but there's no hello because I got headphones in, which
[35:53]means I don't have to talk to you.
[35:54]Can I just tell you that there's a, there's a lot of spots where I walk and I try to look
[35:59]as mean as possible.
[36:00]So nobody will talk to me.
[36:01]What do you mean?
[36:02]I look like I go like, I look, I try to look like if anybody talks to me, I'm going to
[36:06]fuck their shit up because I do not want, cause it's, I'm in a terrifying part of town
[36:10]and I have to look tough.
[36:11]Otherwise I'm in big trouble.
[36:12]Oh, cause I'm always wearing like a brightly colored shirt that says like, you know, Beck
[36:15]did it better.
[36:16]And it's like, Oh, these guys are going to kick my ass.
[36:18]Not listen to the podcast.
[36:19]I'm not even going to get any downloads.
[36:20]You still wear the, what's it called?
[36:24]Breathalyzer suck ear.
[36:25]What was that shirt?
[36:26]Russell thinks that on a breathalyzer, you're sucking here.
[36:33]He gets a breathalyzer.
[36:35]He's like, Oh,
[36:35]I'd love to have a breathalyzer.
[36:36]I wasn't the one who wore the shirt.
[36:37]How am I supposed to know what the shirt said?
[36:39]He goes, Oh, this drink is not as good.
[36:41]Listen, have you ever had an Irish eyes?
[36:43]It's made with cream and some green stuff and some cream.
[36:46]I'm not, I'm not the one who was dating the dude who had a dad from Ankeny.
[36:52]I'm not supposed to know this stuff.
[36:53]Rob rolling, going, how's it going with you?
[36:58]Okay.
[36:58]So the other day I'm out walking my dog, right?
[37:00]Take a dog out for a walk.
[37:02]Come back in the elevator, come up.
[37:04]Uh, and as,
[37:06]for coming up,
[37:06]I always like to do a fun thing where I unclip the dog's leash so that the
[37:10]dog and this dog is like the size of a small pillow.
[37:12]I, so I get off the elevator, right?
[37:15]And, and I,
[37:16]I unclip the dog so the dog can run down the hallway to the apartment
[37:18]kind of with no leash.
[37:19]It's kind of fun.
[37:20]So I unclip the dog.
[37:22]I get off the elevator, uh, doors closed, turn around.
[37:25]Dog is not with me.
[37:26]Dog is not there.
[37:27]Not.
[37:28]I'm like, Hmm.
[37:30]Okay.
[37:31]So where is it?
[37:32]And I realized the dog has stayed on the elevator.
[37:36]The elevator doors have closed.
[37:37]So I pushed the, I'm on floor 14.
[37:40]So I pushed the down arrow.
[37:41]Elevator does not open back up.
[37:43]The elevator is gone.
[37:44]It has gone to a different floor with said dog on the elevator.
[37:47]Okay.
[37:48]Do not know what's good.
[37:50]So I'm like, well, what do I do?
[37:51]Cause there's no indicator of which floor it's going to.
[37:53]So this dog could be getting off.
[37:55]This is like that old Nintendo game elevator action, you know,
[37:57]where I'm kind of going up and down and people are shooting at me,
[37:59]except it's just me looking for a dog.
[38:02]So I'm holding a leash, right?
[38:04]Like a crazy person getting on the elevator,
[38:05]going up,
[38:06]up and down,
[38:06]looking for my dog going to all these different floors.
[38:09]Finally go down to the lobby.
[38:10]Dog is standing there by the door to go outside.
[38:13]Oh no.
[38:14]So I'm like,
[38:15]that means that somebody got on the elevator and there was just a dog on
[38:20]there with them.
[38:21]Right.
[38:21]Rode the elevator down to the lobby.
[38:24]Then the dog got off in the lobby with the person.
[38:26]The person was just like, okay.
[38:27]And then just left with the dog in the lobby.
[38:29]I was like, what?
[38:30]This doesn't make any sense.
[38:31]Like didn't bring him to the front desk.
[38:32]Didn't do anything.
[38:33]So the dog went on a little bit of a joy ride to all the different
[38:36]floors.
[38:36]I mean,
[38:37]I don't blame them.
[38:38]It's not their job to take care of your,
[38:39]your,
[38:40]your dog.
[38:41]You take care of the dog.
[38:42]Like what are they supposed to do?
[38:43]No,
[38:43]no,
[38:44]no,
[38:44]no.
[38:44]I put the dog on a leash and care for it for like multiple hours.
[38:47]You're missing the point,
[38:48]right?
[38:48]The dog was having fun.
[38:49]I was going to let the dog run down the hall.
[38:51]Instead,
[38:51]he was very naughty and he stayed on the elevator and rode up and
[38:54]down.
[38:54]Not my fault.
[38:55]Actually the dog's fault.
[38:55]Okay.
[38:56]So the dog was punished for that.
[38:57]Maybe your dog thought it was going to be the star of one of those
[39:00]Milo and Otis movies or whatever those movies were just featuring
[39:04]dogs.
[39:05]I hope not.
[39:06]Cause if you look Milo's,
[39:07]they went through like 15 dogs.
[39:08]They were not very good at keeping those dogs alive.
[39:11]It's a real bummer.
[39:11]If you watch that movie,
[39:12]which I make your dog could have survived a weekend in New York city
[39:16]before you pick them up somewhere.
[39:17]No,
[39:18]my dog can't survive anything.
[39:19]My dog barely survives in the apartment.
[39:21]Do you know what he ate the other?
[39:23]You know what I pulled out of his butt the other day,
[39:24]a half chewed pair of my underwear.
[39:26]I had to pull it out.
[39:27]It was stuck in there.
[39:28]I had to pull it.
[39:28]It was like starting a lawnmower.
[39:30]It was not fun to do.
[39:31]Oh no.
[39:32]Okay.
[39:33]He seemed relieved.
[39:34]He actually liked it quite a bit.
[39:35]I think,
[39:35]I think that might be part of the,
[39:36]the problem.
[39:36]So was there a point Rob,
[39:38]where you're going down the elevator,
[39:39]you're thinking how much is my family going to hate me if I lost this dog
[39:43]or,
[39:43]or,
[39:44]or what's your,
[39:45]what's your line of thinking when the dog is missing?
[39:47]What are you thinking when you're going down the elevator?
[39:49]I'm thinking,
[39:50]yeah,
[39:50]that the dog is not only going to get off on somebody's floor,
[39:52]he's going to go to a door that he thinks is our apartment.
[39:55]Cause all the floors look the same.
[39:56]And then he's just going to try to get in the wrong apartment.
[39:59]They might take him in and I don't have a collar on him with his name
[40:02]because it makes too much noise when he's walking around.
[40:04]So this dog might just be gone.
[40:06]Right.
[40:06]So I might just have to tell the kids like,
[40:08]Oh,
[40:09]dog died,
[40:10]saving some kids in the river.
[40:11]Sorry about that.
[40:12]Instead of dog died,
[40:13]going up and down the elevator because I wasn't paying attention.
[40:16]The dog was doing your comedy bit where he acts like he's going to jump in
[40:20]front of the subway,
[40:21]but it went terribly wrong.
[40:24]Thank you for acknowledging.
[40:25]That's a comedy bit.
[40:27]Nobody else does.
[40:27]Every time you do that going forward,
[40:29]Robin have,
[40:30]we would have way more significant.
[40:31]Oh yeah.
[40:32]They would,
[40:32]it would really mess the kids up.
[40:33]That's really a good idea.
[40:34]Russell.
[40:34]I like that.
[40:35]I should,
[40:36]I should be a little fake dog.
[40:37]Toss it out in front of the subway.
[40:39]When it's coming by,
[40:39]watch those kids scream.
[40:40]And then the other thing is I'm thinking about just switching to jock straps,
[40:44]just getting rid of underwear in general,
[40:46]just going jock straps.
[40:47]What are you guys thinking about that?
[40:48]Yeah.
[40:49]Like old guys at the gym,
[40:50]just jock straps.
[40:51]I kind of want to do that.
[40:53]I want to have nothing on my butt.
[40:54]And I don't think I can wear a thong without getting judged.
[40:56]What's wrong with the,
[40:58]the current layers of coverage on your butt that doesn't work for you.
[41:01]Well,
[41:02]I guess it does work for me.
[41:04]Like I,
[41:04]I guess I don't,
[41:05]I guess I don't.
[41:05]Essentially.
[41:06]You're saying you want to be a thong guy.
[41:07]I would love to be a thong guy.
[41:09]If it was okay for men to wear thongs,
[41:11]I would wear thongs.
[41:12]Hey,
[41:12]Matt's back.
[41:12]I would wear thongs.
[41:14]If I could,
[41:15]would you guys honestly,
[41:17]honestly,
[41:18]if it was okay for men to wear thongs,
[41:20]would you?
[41:20]No,
[41:21]no,
[41:22]no.
[41:22]Why?
[41:24]What's the point?
[41:25]What's the point?
[41:27]I think it's great.
[41:28]Well,
[41:28]the thing is,
[41:29]is that the point of the thong is that I think it feels good.
[41:33]I always assumed,
[41:34]I don't know.
[41:35]Right.
[41:36]Oh,
[41:36]if you're wearing like tight pants,
[41:38]it covers up like the,
[41:39]the line.
[41:40]Right.
[41:40]So that you,
[41:40]you don't see that.
[41:41]Are you concerned about the line,
[41:43]Rob?
[41:43]Yeah.
[41:44]Are you concerned about the line?
[41:45]Yes,
[41:46]I am.
[41:46]I can't see the line.
[41:48]Can you Rob?
[41:48]You guys,
[41:49]I just think it's,
[41:50]I just think men's underwear.
[41:52]Listen,
[41:53]men's underwear is so boring,
[41:54]right?
[41:55]It's so boring.
[41:56]Like I've gone from the,
[41:57]the,
[41:58]when I started in high school,
[41:59]I was like super loose flannel boxers that did nothing.
[42:02]It was like,
[42:02]where there's no reason to wear them.
[42:04]They did absolutely nothing.
[42:05]Then,
[42:06]I switched to kind of more like a box,
[42:08]boxer briefs.
[42:09]I now shop for underwear online and Amazon.
[42:12]And I look for the reviews of what I look for reviews of the underwear and Amazon.
[42:17]And all the guys in the reviews are talking about how does this make your bulge look?
[42:21]Well,
[42:22]you've talked about the bowl.
[42:23]Yeah.
[42:24]I already said,
[42:24]so I only buy underwear now that are,
[42:26]they're a little bit too small,
[42:28]but the bulge is fantastic.
[42:29]My concern with jock straps is the waistband,
[42:32]man.
[42:32]Those are not comfortable.
[42:33]That's not going to,
[42:34]you got to get underwear that are meant to be worn all day.
[42:36]A jock strap is meant to be worn for a short period of time for some short,
[42:39]violent efforts.
[42:40]Do old guys not wear a jock strap all the time?
[42:42]I thought they were always wearing one.
[42:43]Rob,
[42:44]what do you wear?
[42:44]What do you wear when you wear your singlet?
[42:46]What do you wear when you wear your singlet for a weightlifting event?
[42:48]You have to wear tighty whiteys.
[42:50]It's,
[42:50]it's a rule,
[42:51]except they don't check it as much anymore,
[42:53]but they did when I started.
[42:54]So I always pull them out at the equipment check in the beginning.
[42:57]I'm like,
[42:57]here's my underwear.
[42:58]And then I was like,
[42:58]oh,
[42:59]okay,
[42:59]weirdo.
[43:00]So you're saying for the,
[43:01]the,
[43:01]the event,
[43:02]you can't wear a thong slash jock strap for that event,
[43:06]right?
[43:06]No,
[43:06]I'd have to wear.
[43:07]I,
[43:08]and plus the spandex.
[43:09]Sometimes when it spreads,
[43:10]you can see through it.
[43:11]I learned that the hard way at the gym one day when I didn't wear underwear
[43:14]under my spandex.
[43:15]So that is so,
[43:19]okay.
[43:20]I've agreed.
[43:20]We all wear,
[43:21]should wear thongs.
[43:21]I think that's a great idea.
[43:22]Beck did a better male thongs.
[43:23]Think about it.
[43:24]We don't want to see a thong.
[43:26]I like those old school,
[43:27]regular draws.
[43:28]It's time for nobody's favorite part of the show.
[43:31]Let's talk.
[43:32]I'm taking it this time.
[43:33]I'm taking that transition.
[43:34]I like it.
[43:35]Thank you.
[43:36]Outcast.
[43:37]Of course is Andre 3000 and big boy,
[43:39]two friends that met in Atlanta high school and had their coming out party
[43:42]and one of the most infamous events in the hip hop history.
[43:44]The 1995 source awards was all about the East versus West,
[43:47]but their initial album,
[43:49]ATL aliens showed that the South was an up and coming force in hip hop.
[43:52]They lived up to the hype on their third album,
[43:54]the easy to pronounce.
[43:55]Equimini and took hip hop into the future with deep story.
[43:59]Rob it's,
[44:00]I believe it's aqua mini with deep story.
[44:02]Storytelling mixed with insane flows and live horns.
[44:04]Outcast would continue to change the definition of hip hop with stankonia
[44:07]released on Halloween in the year 2000,
[44:09]moving farther away from the simple sampling and drum beats of the two
[44:12]Georgians found boring.
[44:13]They created their masterpiece and the same time started a signal of the end
[44:17]of outcast as a group.
[44:18]Well,
[44:18]they didn't declare their differences like they would on the next album.
[44:21]You can pick and choose the big boy and Andre 3000 songs on this one.
[44:24]They were drifting apart.
[44:26]And then now T toller Andre 3000 often recording from home.
[44:28]Well,
[44:28]big boy still made sure the gang was there to throw down funky beats.
[44:32]The album yielded their first top 10 hit with miss Jackson and many
[44:36]consider it the ultimate screw job that this album lost the Grammy or best
[44:40]album to the soundtrack of brother.
[44:42]Where art though?
[44:42]Oh,
[44:43]great soundtrack.
[44:44]It's time for these men of constant sorrow to dive into the album.
[44:47]Let's listen to what many consider one of the tentpoles of hip hop with
[44:51]stankonia.
[44:51]You think that should have won the best album though?
[44:56]Pretty fucking good.
[44:58]Not better than this.
[44:59]No,
[44:59]absolutely not.
[45:00]I guarantee there's a better opener.
[45:02]Than this interlude track.
[45:03]Russell's got an extra grant about the earth.
[45:07]Seven light years below sea level.
[45:10]We go.
[45:11]Welcome to Stanko.
[45:13]Oh no,
[45:13]this was old brother.
[45:14]Where art thou?
[45:14]I clicked the wrong one.
[45:15]That's my bad.
[45:16]Is this like a McCartney Lennon thing?
[45:18]Are they not getting along on this where they're doing their own thing for each
[45:21]track or how is that?
[45:22]What's going on here?
[45:23]Well,
[45:24]that's where they want that where they went for speaker box.
[45:26]Love below,
[45:27]right?
[45:27]Is that they were,
[45:28]they were totally separate albums.
[45:30]Yeah.
[45:31]All right.
[45:32]I think this one from what you read,
[45:33]they were still collaborating.
[45:34]I mean,
[45:35]because this was their first album in the studio that they owned,
[45:38]right?
[45:38]So they had everybody hanging out in the studio,
[45:40]but I think it was,
[45:41]you read that,
[45:42]you know,
[45:43]Andre was increasingly as Rob said,
[45:45]keeping to himself,
[45:46]but I think they're still collaborating a lot,
[45:47]but you can start to hear that the fabric kind of,
[45:49]kind of rip.
[45:50]Yeah.
[45:51]Well,
[45:51]this is where Eric about do comes in.
[45:53]Right.
[45:54]I mean,
[45:54]right around this time,
[45:55]a little bit earlier than this.
[45:57]And they've,
[45:57]they've got these two divergent paths.
[45:59]I think Andre,
[46:01]you know,
[46:02]clearly goes down more of a jazzy kind of a eclectic route and,
[46:07]and big boy kind of stays on the hip hop rap side of things.
[46:11]And they're both geniuses.
[46:13]If you listen to what they've got going on,
[46:15]they're just slightly different.
[46:17]You know,
[46:17]there are two groups,
[46:18]there are two members of a group that just kind of have different artistic
[46:22]outlets that they want to take.
[46:24]I think with pairs like this,
[46:25]right.
[46:25]You either get where they go their own ways and they're both geniuses.
[46:28]We've seen that.
[46:29]I think before I'm trying to think of a group we've seen that with,
[46:31]or you have like a Simon and Garfunkel where one is basically doing all the
[46:36]work.
[46:36]And the other one is a art Garfunkel.
[46:38]And then just one goes off and does something.
[46:40]The other one is left behind playing County Ferris for the rest of his life.
[46:43]He's just got a cool name for the band.
[46:45]He's like,
[46:45]Garfunkel is a cool name for the band.
[46:47]You're in dude.
[46:48]I love how you think the name Garfunkel is like a cool name.
[46:50]It's like Garfunkel.
[46:51]Awesome name.
[46:52]Fuck.
[46:52]Yeah.
[46:53]I'll join your gang.
[46:53]Hey,
[46:53]we're the Garfunkels.
[46:54]Let's go.
[46:55]Let's get to this gasoline dreams.
[46:57]This is the real opener for this album.
[47:01]And this guitar.
[47:03]Yeah.
[47:03]And a lot of this has kind of like,
[47:04]yeah,
[47:05]I mean,
[47:05]this is such a great start.
[47:06]A lot of these tracks,
[47:07]this one,
[47:08]I think explosion coming up later,
[47:10]kind of have that West coast death row feel to me a little bit.
[47:14]And I,
[47:15]I think they were kind of going for that,
[47:16]but to do that with the sort of political flavor was very cool.
[47:21]I love this song.
[47:23]I didn't like the interlude,
[47:24]the opening.
[47:25]I think we had this in the,
[47:26]on the last outcast album where they started with kind of a,
[47:29]a skit or a short thing at the beginning,
[47:31]but,
[47:31]this song was a complete jam.
[47:33]This is now in my list of like top 10 songs that I've now become a fan of
[47:37]because,
[47:38]because of this quest.
[47:39]I loved it.
[47:40]I loved it.
[47:40]Yeah.
[47:41]What do you think of that?
[47:42]That's the real opening track is gasoline dreams.
[47:44]I mean,
[47:45]it's okay.
[47:46]Right.
[47:47]I mean,
[47:47]there's the second best song on the album,
[47:50]Matt,
[47:50]would you say that was the appetizer dessert of this album?
[47:53]It's tough to tell.
[47:54]I would say that's kind of like the salad.
[47:57]This is like,
[47:59]this is like onion rings on the,
[48:01]for the,
[48:01]for the appetizer.
[48:02]Yeah.
[48:02]On a salad.
[48:03]Okay.
[48:04]Or as my place knows it,
[48:05]the Rob,
[48:06]you guys know,
[48:07]everybody doesn't love the smell of gasoline and doesn't everybody like the taste of apple
[48:11]pie,
[48:12]but you know what?
[48:12]I do love the taste of apple pie and Rob,
[48:15]you were just at the apple orchard and it's apple season.
[48:18]So I've got to re tell you guys one of my favorite drinks and everyone's got to try out
[48:22]right now.
[48:23]Just hold up your drink and let us all take a look.
[48:26]I'm going to get a better sound clip.
[48:27]This one does not.
[48:31]What's Russell drinking?
[48:32]What am I drinking tonight?
[48:34]Because I do like the taste of apple pie.
[48:37]I've told you guys once about this before,
[48:39]but everyone on our listener has to try this apple pie,
[48:42]Moscow mule.
[48:42]We've got vodka.
[48:43]We got rum.
[48:45]We got apple cider,
[48:46]which is in season.
[48:47]Robin,
[48:48]you went all the way to this,
[48:49]this orchard.
[48:50]So you should have some fresh apple cider,
[48:53]ginger beer,
[48:54]much too heavy to carry back.
[48:55]No way.
[48:56]A slice of apple for garnish,
[48:58]a cinnamon stick,
[48:59]a lime for garnish,
[49:01]but here's the real key guys,
[49:02]a drop of vanilla.
[49:04]You put a little vanilla in there,
[49:06]makes that thing pop,
[49:07]makes it sing.
[49:08]I think I see a cinnamon stick in there.
[49:10]And I do remember that you bought cinnamon sticks for a drink previously.
[49:13]I do not see a slice of apple as a garnish anywhere.
[49:15]Well,
[49:16]they're over here.
[49:17]I'm just kind of eating these as I go.
[49:19]I just figured I would pair them with the apples instead.
[49:22]Vodka and rum together.
[49:26]Sounds like trouble.
[49:27]I don't know.
[49:27]I,
[49:28]yeah,
[49:28]you're getting close to long Island territory with that,
[49:31]with that,
[49:31]Owen Russell.
[49:32]I mean,
[49:32]I would drink it.
[49:33]Don't get me wrong.
[49:33]Is it making you too cool?
[49:35]I'm cool.
[49:36]Is it making you cool?
[49:37]Hey,
[49:39]check this out,
[49:39]Rob.
[49:40]I was not actually,
[49:40]I was going to skip.
[49:41]What are we going to do with these interludes on this?
[49:43]I was just going to skip them,
[49:44]right?
[49:44]Cause we can't sit here and listen to like 30 seconds skits.
[49:46]There's a couple I want to play.
[49:47]This I'm cool interlude is,
[49:49]is appallingly scary.
[49:50]It's too,
[49:51]it's too scary.
[49:51]It's too scary.
[49:52]I'm not playing it.
[49:53]Okay.
[49:53]So instead we're going so fresh,
[49:54]so clean.
[49:55]Ah,
[49:56]yes.
[49:56]So Russell,
[49:57]did you have all your ingredients for that drink?
[49:59]I had to go buy apple cider tonight.
[50:02]Fresh limes.
[50:03]I've been told by someone that lime juice out of little plastic lime thing.
[50:07]It's not an acceptable substitute.
[50:09]So I'm not allowed to do that anymore.
[50:12]Oh,
[50:12]and then I,
[50:14]uh,
[50:15]yeah,
[50:16]no,
[50:16]I had almost everything.
[50:17]Wow.
[50:17]That's so impressive.
[50:18]That song has got me craving a patty melt,
[50:20]but I don't want to try to make one at home.
[50:22]Oh yeah.
[50:23]I'm with you there.
[50:24]Gator belts.
[50:25]Do you have a gator belt?
[50:26]I don't have a gator belt,
[50:27]but I,
[50:27]I,
[50:28]I would,
[50:28]I would buy a gator belt for the,
[50:31]I had a,
[50:31]you know,
[50:32]our buddy Joe,
[50:33]Joe from,
[50:34]uh,
[50:34]Richfield had a Monte Carlo in high school.
[50:37]And so we look pretty cool riding in our Monte Carlo with our gator belts and patty melts,
[50:43]gator belts and patty melts.
[50:44]You know what?
[50:45]My family bought it.
[50:46]That's gator wise is you can,
[50:47]if,
[50:47]when you go to Florida,
[50:48]they just have so many gators that they're killing for meter,
[50:51]whatever you do with gators.
[50:52]I don't know,
[50:52]making belts that they take their feet and make them into back scratchers.
[50:56]The most terrifying back scratch.
[50:57]You can ever have in your whole life is just an alligator claw,
[51:00]but it is also very Florida.
[51:02]So what we do with it,
[51:04]I would,
[51:04]the whole time I was listening to this,
[51:05]I was thinking about all three of you guys.
[51:07]And I was like,
[51:08]what do you guys wear when you want to look so fresh and so clean?
[51:10]What's your thing you wear?
[51:12]Like when you really need to turn it up,
[51:13]you're not going to like,
[51:14]you're,
[51:15]you're not looking,
[51:15]uh,
[51:16]what's it called?
[51:17]Lounge casual Rob.
[51:19]So you're allowed to wear socks,
[51:20]but what's your go-to thing when you really want to look good,
[51:23]Matt,
[51:23]what do you wear when you go out?
[51:24]I have figured out that if I really want to look good,
[51:27]really want to look good.
[51:29]If I try to buy something,
[51:31]that's like just awesome.
[51:32]Yeah.
[51:32]You know,
[51:33]it's like,
[51:34]it just doesn't look good on me.
[51:35]You know,
[51:36]we've got,
[51:37]we've got other people,
[51:38]you know,
[51:39]I think of like,
[51:40]you know,
[51:40]Steve,
[51:41]that Steve,
[51:42]he could wear anything,
[51:43]right?
[51:43]He's going to look good.
[51:44]So I just try to keep it nice and simple,
[51:47]you know,
[51:48]to look fresh and clean,
[51:50]just keep no fancy patterns,
[51:53]no fancy anything,
[51:54]just a nice clean pair of slacks.
[51:57]Maybe some jeans,
[51:58]you know,
[51:59]nice is such a mean old daddy.
[52:01]Exactly.
[52:02]Exactly.
[52:02]Nice button down shirt,
[52:04]maybe a little quarter zip,
[52:05]maybe a sweater,
[52:05]something like that,
[52:06]but just nothing flashy.
[52:07]That's about the,
[52:08]all I can do to keep it fresh and clean.
[52:10]Tucked in or not tucked in,
[52:12]not tucked in.
[52:13]I mean,
[52:14]we're not,
[52:14]we're not,
[52:15]we're not 24 anymore.
[52:16]Russell.
[52:17]I mean,
[52:17]some kind of savages.
[52:18]Yeah.
[52:19]For the slacks mentioned,
[52:22]I got to say,
[52:23]Aaron,
[52:24]what do you wear when you need to look so fresh and so clean?
[52:26]Uh,
[52:27]when I want to look good,
[52:27]when I want to look so fresh and so clean,
[52:28]I got a pair of,
[52:30]uh,
[52:31]sort of cream suede colored wallabies,
[52:33]Clark wallabies that.
[52:36]Okay.
[52:37]Stop,
[52:37]stop,
[52:38]stop,
[52:38]stop,
[52:38]stop,
[52:38]stop.
[52:39]Russell,
[52:40]tell me what Clark wallabies are.
[52:41]I would assume it's some sort of koala skin shoe,
[52:45]like a,
[52:46]like a,
[52:47]like a sand,
[52:48]like a,
[52:49]what do you call those?
[52:50]A moccasin.
[52:51]You can keep mowing that apple too during the podcast.
[52:53]That'd be great.
[52:53]Uh,
[52:54]so,
[52:54]so you think it's a koala skin moccasin?
[52:57]You think that that's what Aaron's by?
[52:59]He doesn't have a microwave.
[53:00]He cares about the environment yet.
[53:02]Koalas.
[53:02]He's like,
[53:02]send them to hell and make my moccasins.
[53:05]People have their things.
[53:06]You never know about people,
[53:08]you know,
[53:08]the inside smells like eucalyptus.
[53:10]Cause that's what they force feed them before they slaughter them.
[53:12]It's like koala pate.
[53:13]Actually,
[53:18]don't worry,
[53:18]Aaron,
[53:18]a ton of,
[53:19]a ton of them have gonorrhea.
[53:20]So don't,
[53:21]uh,
[53:21]don't get too attached.
[53:22]The Clark's wallabies are,
[53:25]uh,
[53:25]actually there's sort of,
[53:27]uh,
[53:27]there's,
[53:27]there's sort of like orthopedic shoe,
[53:29]but,
[53:30]uh,
[53:30]ghost face made him famous.
[53:32]Ghost face wore wallabies and he would,
[53:34]he would,
[53:34]he would hand dye his own wallabies.
[53:36]You can see Aaron in big black shoes that my grandma had.
[53:38]No,
[53:39]these are,
[53:40]these are suede wallabies.
[53:42]Nobody dopes me.
[53:43]Oh yeah.
[53:43]And my,
[53:44]my lady bought these for me,
[53:45]I don't know,
[53:46]14 years ago.
[53:46]One of my legs is actually a little longer than the other,
[53:49]so I have to wear these corrective shoes.
[53:50]I keep them so clean.
[53:51]I don't wear them for anything unless I'm trying to look so fresh and so clean.
[53:55]So it's my,
[53:55]for me,
[53:56]it's my wallabies.
[53:57]Nice.
[53:57]Rob,
[53:58]what do you wear?
[53:58]I've got the,
[54:00]uh,
[54:00]so I work in a school where sometimes you have to wear a suit for a day for
[54:04]like a convocation days.
[54:05]And so everybody's just wearing like black suits or blue suits.
[54:09]I've gotten the Miami vice special that I wear,
[54:11]which is my red pants.
[54:12]And then I have a tangerine shirt with a light blue suit coat that I put on
[54:17]when I wear that.
[54:18]And I walk into the school.
[54:19]Oh,
[54:20]and I think that's why some friends are so clean.
[54:26]Guess what?
[54:27]Russ,
[54:27]I wear like normal shoes.
[54:28]I don't have to have orthopedic ass shoes.
[54:30]Dr.
[54:30]Scholl's ass walking around made out of koalas.
[54:33]I don't need that shit.
[54:34]Okay.
[54:34]Regular ass shoes,
[54:36]but not as nice as yours.
[54:37]I was walking with Russell one day.
[54:39]Russell's got some fucking nice ass shoes when he's looking so fresh and so
[54:42]clean.
[54:43]He was walking with my wife and I,
[54:45]my wife is like nice shoes.
[54:46]And I was like,
[54:46]what the fuck is,
[54:47]and then this music started playing.
[54:48]I was like,
[54:48]what the fuck's going on here?
[54:49]This is a disaster.
[54:50]I've been told that shoes can kind of save the whole thing.
[54:53]If you've got really nice shoes that can kind of save all the rest of the
[54:57]problems that are going on with this,
[54:58]you know,
[54:59]definitely hot.
[54:59]You can definitely hide things,
[55:01]right?
[55:01]Like you had old ass grungy ass shoes.
[55:04]Like that's,
[55:05]that's a definite sign of,
[55:06]you know,
[55:07]like what,
[55:07]what are we doing here?
[55:08]But if you keep your shoe game intact,
[55:10]Russell,
[55:11]I can,
[55:11]I can keep things.
[55:12]Or if you're Aaron and you come out and fucking Dr.
[55:15]Frankenstein's monsters looking boots that he's wearing.
[55:17]Okay.
[55:18]He's like,
[55:18]these are actually pretty cool.
[55:19]I don't get what's a big deal with shoes.
[55:21]Like,
[55:21]can you guys even see shoes when you're wearing them?
[55:23]Like who?
[55:23]Oh,
[55:26]and,
[55:27]and I should clarify.
[55:28]It's because of the bulge.
[55:29]Okay.
[55:35]I'm going to stand up and show you guys some underwear again.
[55:37]It's a good one though.
[55:42]I love this kind of like Isley's type sound.
[55:44]I think they really play a lot with the vocals and the harmonies on this,
[55:47]this album.
[55:48]It's a,
[55:49]they're just pulling from so many influences.
[55:50]I know we got to move on,
[55:52]but so fresh and so clean reminds me of one of the most embarrassing moments
[55:54]of my life that I bet.
[55:55]I think about once every two weeks,
[55:57]and I cringe.
[55:58]Can we hear about it?
[55:58]All right.
[55:59]Miss Jackson is next.
[56:00]For some reason I was in it as a teacher.
[56:04]I was a teacher in a small town.
[56:05]And for some reason,
[56:06]I don't know why somebody gave it to me,
[56:08]but somebody gave me like adult wet wipes.
[56:12]What?
[56:13]For a gift.
[56:14]They gave me adult wet wipes to like,
[56:16]instead of toilet paper.
[56:17]Right.
[56:17]So they're giving me,
[56:18]and the whole time I didn't know what they were for.
[56:21]Like the idea,
[56:22]I don't know.
[56:23]The idea of like wet wipes instead of toilet paper was so foreign to me.
[56:27]I literally was sitting at lunch with all the other teachers going,
[56:29]look at these wet wipes.
[56:31]Why would somebody give me wet wipes?
[56:32]What am I going to use wet wipes for?
[56:33]What are these for?
[56:34]What are these?
[56:35]And it was like a day later where I realized like,
[56:37]Oh,
[56:37]these are instead of toilet paper.
[56:39]And I was just showing everybody at my lunch table.
[56:41]What are these?
[56:42]This is what I'm going to use.
[56:43]This is what I got for a gift.
[56:44]Who gave these to you?
[56:46]I cannot remember for the life of me.
[56:48]That's the other part of the story.
[56:49]No idea who gave this to me,
[56:51]why they gave this to me.
[56:52]They were probably trying to tell you they wanted to eat your.
[56:57]What was that joke Rob was trying to make earlier that he kept saying?
[57:00]I was,
[57:00]I've been trying to think about it the whole time.
[57:02]He's squishing his peen.
[57:05]No,
[57:06]that was a better one than that.
[57:08]So squishing his peen.
[57:09]What was the name?
[57:12]Russell,
[57:12]if we have to remember every joke I told.
[57:14]Huh?
[57:15]We got to move on.
[57:17]It's impossible.
[57:19]It's impossible to answer your question.
[57:21]Cause Rob never stops talking.
[57:23]Aaron just walked to the back of his garage.
[57:25]His shoes make him look like he's wearing fucking.
[57:27]He's got these big ass,
[57:28]huge kiss boots on.
[57:31]It's crazy.
[57:31]Sorry,
[57:32]miss Jackson.
[57:33]The reverse snare.
[57:37]Great song.
[57:39]Yeah,
[57:40]this is right in the wheelhouse of,
[57:42]this was on the wind amp player for all of us.
[57:44]Correct.
[57:44]Yes.
[57:45]Is this on your wind amp back in the day or not?
[57:47]Yep.
[57:47]This was one of my,
[57:49]I took it from my sister's computer and made a mix CD.
[57:51]The song was right in there in between two Bob Dylan songs.
[57:54]It was a rough listen,
[57:55]but a great song.
[57:57]Kind of a bit of whiplash coming from.
[57:58]And it's wild that Erica Badu shows up later as a guest on this album.
[58:01]And I don't know when the songs were recorded sequentially,
[58:04]but like this is something we haven't experienced where there is a person
[58:08]about whom a song is written who then appears later on the album.
[58:12]It's all these,
[58:13]it's a tangled web.
[58:14]They weave.
[58:14]I read that Erica Badu's mom was kind of pumped.
[58:18]Like she,
[58:18]she goes around claiming,
[58:20]Hey,
[58:20]I am miss Jackson in the album,
[58:22]right?
[58:22]Nice.
[58:22]Like I would,
[58:23]it's a great fucking song.
[58:25]Rob,
[58:26]what would you write?
[58:27]What would you write for a song about your mother-in-law?
[58:28]Aaron,
[58:28]Matt,
[58:29]if you guys had to write a song about your mother-in-law,
[58:31]what would it be about?
[58:32]I was just going to say,
[58:33]didn't Barbara Ann sing on that beach boys CD later?
[58:35]Bob,
[58:36]Bob,
[58:37]Bob,
[58:37]Bob,
[58:37]Bob,
[58:38]a rant.
[58:38]What?
[58:40]Oh,
[58:40]Rosie just left.
[58:41]He's off to the shoe stores to get his shoes signed.
[58:45]And it costs $1,000 each time.
[58:47]Cause the shoes are so fucking big.
[58:48]Matt,
[58:49]what would you say?
[58:50]Miss Jackson,
[58:50]where does this rank on the album of best songs?
[58:53]What's your favorite song on the album?
[58:54]I would say it's number three or four.
[58:57]Overall or just so far?
[58:58]Overall.
[58:59]I mean,
[59:00]well,
[59:00]and yeah,
[59:01]number two so far.
[59:02]So fresh and so clean is above it.
[59:04]You think so?
[59:05]Huh?
[59:05]Yeah.
[59:06]All right.
[59:06]Oh,
[59:07]but I know miss Jackson is such a good song.
[59:09]Like it's so overplayed.
[59:12]I mean,
[59:12]right.
[59:12]I mean,
[59:12]how many times have you heard it?
[59:14]9,000 times.
[59:16]So that's cause it's good.
[59:17]Cause it's great.
[59:17]But I mean,
[59:18]and my wind and I would put my wind amp and repeat and then leave and lock my
[59:22]dorm room and turn it,
[59:23]turn it up.
[59:23]So everybody in the dorm had to hear it and I was out of there.
[59:25]No big deal.
[59:26]It really whips the Lama's ass.
[59:28]10 times out of nine.
[59:30]Snapping and trapping.
[59:32]Oh,
[59:33]and killer Mike shows up.
[59:34]It's on.
[59:35]As soon as you hear killer Mike's voice,
[59:36]you know,
[59:37]it's going to be a verse.
[59:38]Who's killer Mike Aaron.
[59:39]He's now one half of run the jewels.
[59:44]So he's probably better known to people as part of run the jewels,
[59:46]but I,
[59:46]he's an Atlanta rapper who was,
[59:48]I think part of the dungeon family.
[59:50]So showed up a lot on outcast albums.
[59:53]His mixtapes.
[59:54]I pledge allegiance to the grind are just fantastic.
[59:56]And he just has this authoritative voice and,
[59:59]and then,
[60:00]yeah,
[60:00]he's become famous as part of run the jewels,
[60:02]but one of my favorite rappers.
[60:03]What a great name for a mixtape.
[60:05]I pledge allegiance to the grind.
[60:08]Oh my God.
[60:08]So good.
[60:09]Is that the song where he calls out Sergeant slaughter?
[60:12]Snapping and trapping.
[60:14]Let's listen.
[60:14]Yeah.
[60:15]Let's listen.
[60:15]Yep.
[60:17]It's right there.
[60:17]I get it right to Sergeant slaughter.
[60:19]He didn't call out Hulk Hogan's pasta baby.
[60:22]It's just Sergeant slaughter though.
[60:23]Didn't he?
[60:24]I always thought Sergeant slaughter was just Jesse Ventura.
[60:26]As like another character.
[60:27]I thought that until I was like 35 different.
[60:30]Oh,
[60:31]way different.
[60:31]That is Sergeant slaughter was the Iraqi sympathizer during the war.
[60:34]Oh,
[60:35]is that what his heel?
[60:37]Yeah.
[60:37]He was a bad guy.
[60:38]He wrestled Hulk Hogan,
[60:40]Tasmania,
[60:41]Tasmania seven.
[60:42]So Sergeant slaughter turned into an Iraqi sympathizer.
[60:46]That is wild to me.
[60:48]He did.
[60:48]I like that when wrestling gets into real political stuff,
[60:52]you know,
[60:52]you know what?
[60:54]We could skip the DF interlude.
[60:56]And get right to spaghetti junction,
[60:58]which would be a Hulk Hogan theme song.
[60:59]Oh yes.
[61:00]If Hulk Hogan were to be the singer on one of these songs,
[61:04]he would say spaghetti junction,
[61:06]Rob,
[61:06]but it would be for pasta mania,
[61:08]right?
[61:09]Hey,
[61:09]hey there,
[61:10]girl,
[61:11]you're way off.
[61:13]Rob,
[61:13]you gotta,
[61:14]you gotta get pulled the shit together.
[61:16]Do it right.
[61:16]Get it right.
[61:17]Hey there,
[61:18]brother.
[61:19]Well,
[61:19]I can't say,
[61:20]hey there,
[61:20]brother.
[61:20]And then he's going to talk about how full he is.
[61:22]Cause that sounds like he just had sex with the father-in-law.
[61:25]He can't be doing that.
[61:25]Well,
[61:26]what?
[61:26]What?
[61:27]Cause I,
[61:27]nevermind.
[61:28]Hey there,
[61:29]hey there,
[61:30]hey there,
[61:31]Hulkamaniacs,
[61:32]come into pasta mania and have a little spaghetti junction and some Hulkios.
[61:36]Yes.
[61:37]And get the dessert.
[61:38]It's the best part.
[61:39]And everybody knows that.
[61:39]And if they don't,
[61:40]they're Iraqi sympathizers like Sergeant Slaughter.
[61:43]Yes.
[61:44]Kim and Cookie.
[61:45]Now this is actually recorded after a date with Russell.
[61:47]Oh,
[61:49]this one is so good.
[61:50]This is,
[61:50]that wasn't right.
[61:51]Kim.
[61:51]Yeah.
[61:52]That's just not right.
[61:53]Right,
[61:53]right.
[61:53]This is an all time great sketch.
[61:55]Say hello,
[61:55]Cookie.
[61:56]I think you're right,
[61:57]Aaron.
[61:57]Yes,
[61:58]this one is great.
[61:59]Spill it,
[62:00]girl.
[62:00]Spill it.
[62:01]Yes.
[62:01]I like how this works.
[62:04]She's like,
[62:04]tear my ass up.
[62:05]What's up?
[62:06]You're right,
[62:08]Aaron.
[62:08]I think the chronic has the best sketches.
[62:10]We've talked about other albums where we did or don't like them or do like them.
[62:14]I generally don't like the interludes on the outcast one.
[62:17]This one is really good.
[62:18]This one,
[62:19]the combination of their particular rhythm of talking.
[62:24]And then the,
[62:26]the interludes with the toe up just like the throwback to church,
[62:30]but they're talking about dirty stuff.
[62:32]I just love it.
[62:33]Is there any better phrase for sex besides getting your ass tore up?
[62:36]Like it's so funny.
[62:37]Like maybe rearranging your guts.
[62:41]Like that's the only other one.
[62:42]Rob,
[62:43]that's what,
[62:44]that's the joke I tried to make that you missed earlier.
[62:45]That's what the person who gave you the wet wipes wanted to do to you.
[62:49]That's why they gave you the wet wipes.
[62:50]You missed the,
[62:51]that's what they were trying to know.
[62:52]I thought you said they wanted to eat my.
[62:54]Yeah,
[62:55]but you didn't laugh.
[62:56]So I had to do it again.
[62:56]No,
[62:57]I didn't.
[62:57]I played Aaron.
[62:58]Okay.
[62:59]Your dad listens to this and send me,
[63:00]sends me t-shirts.
[63:01]Can we not,
[63:02]can we not do this?
[63:03]No,
[63:03]if Rob's not going to laugh at my one joke a week,
[63:06]I got to bring it back.
[63:07]Yeah.
[63:08]He sent him a t-shirt that says free,
[63:10]free breathalyzer suck here.
[63:12]Oh no.
[63:13]Wait,
[63:16]we're way past the sun.
[63:17]We got to move forward.
[63:18]My bad.
[63:18]Uh,
[63:19]Aaron,
[63:20]uh,
[63:20]I'll call before I come.
[63:21]What?
[63:22]This actually,
[63:23]this actually might be my favorite.
[63:25]Um,
[63:26]yeah,
[63:26]this is great.
[63:28]Yeah.
[63:29]Why do you like it?
[63:30]I really liked it,
[63:30]but there's the water sounds of brought,
[63:32]brought me back to Eric being Rakim.
[63:34]Like I can't do the popping water and it's on two of these tracks on this album.
[63:39]I don't get it.
[63:39]I can tell you why Rosie loves this.
[63:41]Aaron loves this because it sounds just like parliament.
[63:44]I love this.
[63:46]Yeah.
[63:46]I mean,
[63:46]I love that,
[63:47]that it's,
[63:47]you know,
[63:47]I mean,
[63:48]this whole album was borrowing from Funkadelic,
[63:50]but I love the snare.
[63:51]It sounds like,
[63:52]you know,
[63:52]straight ahead,
[63:53]old school,
[63:54]Southern rap mixtape,
[63:55]but it's,
[63:55]it's a bunch of much different subject matter.
[63:57]And then anytime gangsta boo shows up,
[63:59]I'm in,
[63:59]I love her voice.
[64:00]So I love this track.
[64:01]I love the slinky snakey synth as well.
[64:04]It's all great to me.
[64:05]And it's showing that they're very considerate,
[64:09]right?
[64:10]Right.
[64:10]Ladies first.
[64:11]Yeah.
[64:12]Right.
[64:13]Wait,
[64:14]is that a real thing?
[64:14]Ladies do that too.
[64:16]Bombs over Baghdad.
[64:19]Oh,
[64:22]this is the best song of the album.
[64:24]No question.
[64:24]You're in your whole house for this song.
[64:25]This thing.
[64:26]Man,
[64:29]where should this song be?
[64:30]Number one on the album in the middle.
[64:32]Where would you put this?
[64:33]Number one.
[64:34]Yeah,
[64:34]number one.
[64:35]You're right.
[64:35]Man.
[64:36]I mean,
[64:37]I'll tell you if they were setting out to do a good song,
[64:39]I would put up a big banner that says mission accomplished with that one.
[64:43]I think that was so good.
[64:44]I thought that song was awesome.
[64:47]Yeah.
[64:49]Just don't pull that thing out unless you plan to bang.
[64:53]Unless you plan to bang.
[64:54]Don't pull that thing out unless you care about it.
[64:55]I would revisit that 20 years later even and just and say,
[64:59]yes,
[64:59]definitely.
[65:00]Even 20 years later.
[65:01]Great decision.
[65:02]Explosion.
[65:04]I love this one.
[65:06]Does this have the guy from Cypress Hill on it?
[65:11]Be real.
[65:11]Yeah.
[65:12]Oh,
[65:13]did you hear about him?
[65:14]He totally went insane.
[65:16]He did go insane?
[65:18]Yeah.
[65:18]Insane in the brain.
[65:19]Oh,
[65:20]no.
[65:21]Yeah,
[65:21]he's insane.
[65:22]The problem is he ain't got no brain.
[65:23]But that was a great song.
[65:25]But I think,
[65:25]that was one of the songs that had more terrible water plopping sounds.
[65:28]Why?
[65:29]Why the water sounds on these albums?
[65:30]You don't need it.
[65:31]Seriously.
[65:33]They chose to record it.
[65:37]I didn't record it.
[65:38]No,
[65:39]you're within your rights to.
[65:40]It's like,
[65:41]if you're hearing those sounds that we are using,
[65:43]the wet wipe is too wet.
[65:45]Gotta dry that wet wipe a little bit first.
[65:48]Should not be hearing the Eric B.
[65:50]and Rick M.
[65:50]water sound.
[65:51]All right.
[65:52]Aaron,
[65:54]what's this next one called?
[65:55]I can't read it.
[65:55]I don't,
[65:59]I'm not,
[65:59]I'm not,
[66:00]yeah,
[66:00]I'm not taking the bait.
[66:01]This is when they go to the,
[66:03]uh,
[66:03]garden store.
[66:04]They want to plant some seeds.
[66:06]And so they got to get some,
[66:07]uh,
[66:07]breaks and hoes.
[66:08]This is,
[66:09]we love these hoes.
[66:10]I do have to say this song doesn't hold up.
[66:15]Not surprisingly.
[66:16]And when you think about the infinite subject matter that they've made songs about,
[66:21]even though this beat totally slaps,
[66:23]uh,
[66:23]it's just,
[66:24]it's unfortunate that they,
[66:25]uh,
[66:25]chose to make that one.
[66:26]Aaron,
[66:27]you,
[66:27]you referenced the beat on this one.
[66:29]I heard the bass.
[66:30]And so I was reading a little bit about this and this is this guy named sleepy
[66:33]Brown.
[66:34]He played the Moog bass on this,
[66:36]which is kind of like a synthesizer base.
[66:39]Oh boy.
[66:39]And so I thought what we could do a few weeks ago,
[66:41]we talked about the upright bass.
[66:43]I thought we could do a list of the greatest Moog bass songs ever.
[66:47]This is going to be so cool.
[66:50]Yes.
[66:50]How do you know so much about instruments and still did not remember the guy
[66:54]was playing?
[66:55]I want to tell a side story,
[67:00]but Matt might get mad at me if I pivot.
[67:02]Oh no.
[67:03]So the other night I was out at a bar.
[67:06]I was out at the bar.
[67:08]It was more than one,
[67:09]less than three people at this bar.
[67:11]And we're sitting there and all of a sudden this guy sits next to this at this
[67:16]bar.
[67:16]I'm like,
[67:16]we're talking to him and he goes,
[67:18]I'm actually,
[67:19]he goes,
[67:19]I'm a jazz drummer.
[67:20]I'm playing with a band.
[67:21]I'm from Philadelphia.
[67:22]Wow.
[67:23]And he's sitting right next to me.
[67:24]And I went into my,
[67:25]my whole bit.
[67:26]I did my whole damn bit on the symbols.
[67:27]I talked about the pretty shuffle.
[67:30]I talked about Toto and,
[67:32]and the half,
[67:33]the half shuffle.
[67:34]And I essentially did my whole list for this guy.
[67:36]And he was so fucking impressed.
[67:37]He thought I was the smartest dude in the history of the world.
[67:40]And it's all because of this podcast.
[67:42]There you go.
[67:43]We're making the world better.
[67:44]And then you were like,
[67:45]yeah.
[67:45]And,
[67:45]and I have this podcast I talk about and the guy goes,
[67:47]Oh,
[67:47]that sounds great.
[67:48]Listen,
[67:48]I got to get going.
[67:49]I'll see you later.
[67:50]It happened.
[67:50]Oh yeah.
[67:51]Of course.
[67:52]Well,
[67:52]that kind of happened.
[67:53]He was talking to two ladies.
[67:55]Next to us.
[67:56]And so me and the more than one less than three person next to me,
[68:00]we're trying to decide which one he was trying to talk to more and whether
[68:04]these two ladies were going to have an issue,
[68:06]whether one was like more than the other and how it was going to go down.
[68:10]Russell,
[68:10]I don't want to judge you right now,
[68:11]but how much of the,
[68:12]uh,
[68:13]how much of that fall drink have you made?
[68:15]I'm on picture number two.
[68:17]Show me the picture.
[68:20]Hold up the picture.
[68:21]Let me see the picture.
[68:22]We're going rooster style here.
[68:24]Oh no,
[68:24]it is a picture.
[68:25]It's a picture.
[68:25]Look at that.
[68:26]It's a picture.
[68:28]All right.
[68:28]Call him the lefty.
[68:29]Here we go.
[68:30]It's the first song on the list is parliament.
[68:32]This is flashlight.
[68:33]The first number one RB hit.
[68:35]Wait,
[68:37]you said flash.
[68:39]Yeah.
[68:39]Flash light.
[68:40]Is that right?
[68:42]Yeah.
[68:43]What have I been buying on Amazon?
[68:45]Oh no.
[68:46]This is a great one.
[68:48]Aaron,
[68:49]you're a parliament guy.
[68:50]Why,
[68:50]why is this song so important?
[68:51]Well,
[68:52]it's sampled a bunch,
[68:53]but it also just makes you want to move.
[68:54]Your ass.
[68:55]I read that Bernie were well,
[68:58]he actually connected multiple synthesizers,
[69:01]like three or four of them.
[69:02]And that's what makes that song so cool.
[69:04]Oh,
[69:04]cause he had to,
[69:05]he had to invent a new sound.
[69:06]I mean,
[69:07]they did that kind of stuff all the time.
[69:08]And Bernie were always definitely a genius.
[69:09]That's right.
[69:10]If he had enough,
[69:10]they could call him synthesizers,
[69:12]fibers,
[69:13]shit.
[69:14]Next song on the list.
[69:17]Aaron said a lot of people sampled or always went back to parliament or
[69:21]Funkadelic.
[69:22]And one of those that did a lot,
[69:23]it was Dr.
[69:24]Dre.
[69:24]This is the chronic and Rob.
[69:26]It's these nuts.
[69:30]So Dr.
[69:35]Dre was often inspired by Bernie were L and this is the move base on
[69:39]these nuts.
[69:39]Like that is a great,
[69:40]that's a great base.
[69:41]And is this one?
[69:43]So did he,
[69:43]he write this baseline?
[69:44]He didn't sample it.
[69:45]He actually has a guy.
[69:47]I forgot the guy's name,
[69:48]but he's got some guitar player,
[69:50]bass player slash piano player that played it on a lot of Dr.
[69:54]Dre songs.
[69:54]He sampled a lot,
[69:55]but he did have a guy who actually played that one on the move.
[69:59]I actually like Snoop's bass player is better.
[70:01]His name is Lee Gandhi.
[70:02]What does that mean?
[70:04]Lee Gandhi's nuts.
[70:05]Oh yeah.
[70:07]It was Snoop's birthday this week.
[70:09]He's even older than us.
[70:10]He is.
[70:13]Yeah,
[70:15]I think so.
[70:16]Yeah.
[70:17]It kind of makes you think about death.
[70:18]Next on the list.
[70:21]This is called,
[70:22]I don't know if you guys will know this one,
[70:23]but this bass,
[70:24]this slaps,
[70:25]this is called the zap and Roger more bounce to the ounce,
[70:29]which would be the name.
[70:30]Listen to that.
[70:34]Rob,
[70:38]either of us were never started an adult film.
[70:41]It could definitely be called for bounce to the water bed trilogy.
[70:45]Yes.
[70:46]You see that in a 40 X theater.
[70:49]That's what I'm talking about.
[70:50]We're going to get away from some of the hip hop.
[70:54]And I'm going to get away from some of the,
[70:54]some of the funk.
[70:55]One of the song we've talked about before.
[70:57]This is also a Moog bass is Berlin from top gun.
[71:02]Take my breath away.
[71:03]Whoa.
[71:03]Oh,
[71:05]of course that base there.
[71:07]Yeah.
[71:07]Still feel uncomfortable when I hear the song.
[71:11]I still feel like my parents are.
[71:13]You want to know why you feel uncomfortable?
[71:15]It turns out I was reading about this song.
[71:18]This is what I do is I read about this so I can meet random drummers on an
[71:23]above one.
[71:24]Yeah.
[71:24]It turns out so they had,
[71:29]they had made this whole movie top gun and they were showing it to like the
[71:32]screeners where they show it to all these people and they get feedback on it.
[71:35]There was no love scene with Tom Cruise and Kelly McGillis.
[71:38]So they brought them back to make the love scene just for this song.
[71:42]And the reason why they're making out in the dark is because she had changed
[71:46]her hair color.
[71:47]So when you guys watch the love scene where,
[71:49]where he's licking her nose,
[71:50]Rob or whatever.
[71:51]Yeah.
[71:51]He's definitely looking at us.
[71:52]It's pretty weird.
[71:53]It gets all in the dark.
[71:54]It's because they had to refilm it after the movie was done and she had
[71:58]changed her hair color.
[71:59]Yeah.
[72:00]Aaron knows about that scene.
[72:00]Cause he has to think about it.
[72:01]I don't think I want to make this anymore.
[72:10]How did we get here?
[72:13]Well,
[72:16]the last song on the list is the other music that Aaron likes to listen to
[72:20]when he does that.
[72:20]And that's Marvin Gaye.
[72:22]I don't know.
[72:24]I'm going to have to just beep it.
[72:25]I guess.
[72:26]Um,
[72:28]I don't Rob.
[72:29]I don't know.
[72:29]It's a song.
[72:30]Can you play it here?
[72:31]You hear that?
[72:37]You hear that beat?
[72:38]So is it a familiar beat to you guys?
[72:41]Yeah.
[72:41]Yeah.
[72:42]Is that Robin?
[72:42]I ripped it off.
[72:43]It is.
[72:44]This is the song that Robin Thicke and Pharrell ripped off from Marvin
[72:47]Gaye.
[72:48]They got sued for it.
[72:49]Had to pay seven and a half million dollars because they ripped off the
[72:53]baseline that Marvin Gaye and Pharrell ripped off.
[72:54]Marvin Gaye was playing on the boog synthesizer.
[72:56]And I agree with what Aaron said earlier.
[72:58]I feel bad for Robin Thicke.
[72:59]You know,
[72:59]he just seems like he's gotten screwed over and over.
[73:01]He seems like a great guy.
[73:02]Not a big,
[73:03]not a bad guy at all.
[73:04]Oh,
[73:05]I don't know if he is.
[73:05]He a bad guy for anyone who has not listened to the first hour of this
[73:10]podcast.
[73:10]I did not say that earlier.
[73:12]Just to be clear,
[73:13]anybody who's been skipping through trying to get to Russell's list,
[73:15]just in case somebody picks it up right here.
[73:17]Yeah.
[73:17]Yep.
[73:18]That's not going to happen.
[73:20]We may just delete this part.
[73:22]Well,
[73:24]that's the sign.
[73:24]That's the end of Russell's list.
[73:26]When he says that we probably have to delete this part.
[73:27]Russell,
[73:28]that was a top five list.
[73:30]Humble mumble.
[73:32]I mean,
[73:40]is this the Erykah Badu?
[73:42]She's this is Erykah Badu.
[73:43]Yeah.
[73:44]Matt,
[73:45]you've talked about her before.
[73:46]Are you a fan of this song?
[73:48]I mean,
[73:50]this is a above average for the album,
[73:52]right?
[73:53]I mean,
[73:53]but kind of,
[73:54]it feels like it didn't quite fit into the mainstream,
[73:58]but yeah,
[73:59]I just,
[73:59]I think I love this album way more than Equemini.
[74:03]I think this album is far superior.
[74:06]I thought when I was,
[74:07]okay,
[74:09]I'm not going to take the bait on that.
[74:10]And I feel like when I was walking around to this,
[74:14]like it was such a groove and the,
[74:15]and the lyrics are so off.
[74:17]They're so in syncopation with the beat.
[74:19]Like I'm just,
[74:20]I just was so impressed by this album.
[74:22]I thought it was great.
[74:22]Now I got to admit every time I got to,
[74:24]to interlude,
[74:24]I was like,
[74:24]skip,
[74:25]skip,
[74:25]skip.
[74:25]Don't need to listen to these,
[74:26]but question mark.
[74:28]I know it's for this song.
[74:35]What is this?
[74:36]This album is getting way too long.
[74:38]It's definitely a hint at where Andre was going.
[74:43]A lot of Andre's guest spots.
[74:44]I feel sound similar to that one after,
[74:47]after a love below.
[74:49]It sounds like me when I just started learning how to use garage band,
[74:52]like making songs and being like,
[74:53]uh-huh.
[74:54]And you listen to like the same thing for like eight hours straight.
[74:55]And you're like,
[74:56]this actually is really good.
[74:57]And then you listen to the next day.
[74:59]You're like,
[74:59]Oh no,
[74:59]this is awful.
[75:00]Why did I think this was any good?
[75:01]Speaking of great desserts,
[75:02]red velvet.
[75:03]Yeah.
[75:04]Would you rather get red velvet cake or mini donuts?
[75:07]Oh,
[75:08]mini donuts.
[75:09]Isn't red velvet just like vanilla,
[75:13]but they color it red.
[75:14]Yeah,
[75:15]but it looks so appetizing.
[75:16]Plus cream cheese frosting.
[75:17]It's true.
[75:17]Part of food is visual,
[75:19]Rob.
[75:19]I'm always,
[75:19]I'm eating my dinners in the dark now,
[75:21]full time.
[75:21]No idea what I'm eating.
[75:22]One of the exciting things about this album,
[75:23]is that it,
[75:24]you know,
[75:24]Rob,
[75:25]I think what you like about it is that both of their,
[75:27]both these guys have expansive taste.
[75:28]And so they're pulling from all these influences.
[75:30]It's like pimp a butterfly or other albums.
[75:33]I have expansive taste too.
[75:35]I get four desserts.
[75:36]I don't care.
[75:36]And it,
[75:37]yeah.
[75:37]And it like,
[75:37]I like,
[75:38]it gave me an excuse to listen to Funkadelic all week.
[75:40]But the fun thing I kept doing all week was this.
[75:43]I learned that big boy was a huge fan of Kate Bush.
[75:46]He went deep into Kate Bush's music and her album is coming up just three or four albums
[75:51]away.
[75:51]How are you going to say it like that?
[75:53]So,
[75:53]that's what he said.
[75:54]He said,
[75:54]I went deep into her music.
[75:55]I read the quote.
[75:56]So exciting.
[75:58]Got us to have a chance to look ahead to Kate Bush.
[76:01]And I listened all through this whole album.
[76:03]Like,
[76:04]is there like,
[76:04]can I make any comparison between big boy and Kate Bush?
[76:08]I have to report that I failed,
[76:09]but I'm not,
[76:10]I'm super stoked for hounds of love.
[76:11]It's coming up only in four albums.
[76:12]How much time did you put into making that comparison,
[76:14]Aaron?
[76:15]Honestly,
[76:15]like how much research did you do?
[76:16]How much did you prepare?
[76:17]How much time?
[76:18]I mean,
[76:19]I don't know.
[76:20]How long does it take to listen to the album?
[76:21]73 minutes.
[76:22]So I listened to the album.
[76:23]I don't know.
[76:24]Five times.
[76:25]And I listened to the Kate Bush album once.
[76:26]And I've read a little bit.
[76:27]Oh my God.
[76:28]You actually did more work than I normally do for this podcast.
[76:31]Does Kate Bush have like a big commercial hit?
[76:33]Cause I admittedly don't know her music.
[76:35]Is there like a big hit that I should know that I don't?
[76:37]No,
[76:37]I didn't know.
[76:38]I didn't.
[76:38]I mean,
[76:39]I listened to hounds of love.
[76:40]I didn't recognize any of them,
[76:41]but I loved them.
[76:42]Wow.
[76:42]You can see her in that picture standing next to her dad underneath that
[76:45]banner that says mission accomplished.
[76:46]The lost Bush.
[76:53]Stop saying it,
[76:54]please.
[76:54]This,
[76:56]this interlude.
[76:57]I did love.
[76:57]I do love what they do.
[76:59]The clap and the break,
[77:01]like the football.
[77:02]I could see listening to this cruising around the ATL.
[77:08]I want to do it.
[77:09]It sounds awesome.
[77:10]I would cruise.
[77:11]Listen to this for sure.
[77:12]Gangsta shit.
[77:14]This is what I want to know.
[77:15]It snares back.
[77:18]I like that.
[77:18]Guys.
[77:22]I kind of want to know about,
[77:23]about gangster shit.
[77:24]Does anybody know who I can talk to?
[77:25]I don't know.
[77:27]This is the song where they were singing about Cuervo being their drink.
[77:31]And I thought about doing some Cuervo tonight,
[77:33]but I'm just not a tequila guy.
[77:35]Are you guys,
[77:35]can you do tequila?
[77:37]Is that out of your wheel?
[77:37]I would tell you their gangster shit would be watery after that.
[77:40]No,
[77:40]thanks.
[77:40]Matt tequila.
[77:42]Can you do it?
[77:43]I would.
[77:43]Yeah,
[77:44]I'd rather not,
[77:45]but they're going to,
[77:49]you better look out,
[77:50]man.
[77:50]They're going to put that on the bottle as a quote.
[77:52]I'd rather not.
[77:53]Try it.
[77:55]Aaron.
[77:56]Aaron,
[77:56]how about you?
[77:57]You strike me as more of like a bourbon or a whiskey guy,
[77:59]not a tequila guy.
[78:00]Can you do tequila or not?
[78:01]Yes,
[78:02]I usually am a bourbon or whiskey guy,
[78:04]but I had some reposado tonight that I bought last week and wanted to check out.
[78:08]So yes,
[78:08]I'm usually bourbon or whiskey,
[78:09]but I did have tequila tonight.
[78:11]So it's a timely question.
[78:12]That story reminds me of when I saw a famous commentator tie his tie and he did a rather
[78:18]not.
[78:18]Toiletitia.
[78:20]Oh no.
[78:21]Rather not.
[78:23]I think maybe,
[78:24]yeah,
[78:25]I'd rather not say much about this song,
[78:27]but this does start to sound to me like someone who spent too much time in their
[78:32]room listening to the maggot brain solo,
[78:33]which I know from experience.
[78:35]The first time I heard that song,
[78:37]it was terrifying.
[78:37]It's a terrifying song.
[78:38]Slum beautiful.
[78:39]Okay.
[78:44]We're going to speed up here at the end of this album.
[78:45]I have a theory about Stankonia that,
[78:46]oh yes,
[78:48]Mr.
[78:49]DJ was,
[78:50]was spending time listening to Dilla and I'm,
[78:53]I can talk,
[78:53]myself into hearing any influence anywhere,
[78:55]but I hear Jay.
[78:56]I don't understand a word you just said.
[78:58]What are you talking about?
[79:00]I do not have a perspective for the dumb shits on the podcast.
[79:03]I think you said truck Zilla.
[79:04]I'm not sure.
[79:05]I think that,
[79:06]so I think of Stankonia as part of this group of albums around this time,
[79:11]uh,
[79:12]99,
[79:12]2000.
[79:13]I think it has kinship with,
[79:15]uh,
[79:16]voodoo,
[79:16]of course,
[79:16]because I hear everything voodoo and everything,
[79:18]but also mama's gun by Erica Badu.
[79:20]Uh,
[79:21]not just because she's on both albums,
[79:22]but because I think,
[79:23]um,
[79:24]she has some sort of guitar driven,
[79:25]guitar driven,
[79:26]funky stuff on mama's gun,
[79:28]which is great.
[79:28]Um,
[79:28]and I know that when she was recording mama's gun,
[79:33]it was in at electric lady land with the soul Aquarian.
[79:36]So quest levels around James Poyser,
[79:38]but I know Dilla,
[79:39]Jay Dilla,
[79:40]who's a producer from Detroit,
[79:41]um,
[79:42]who does the sort of lazy,
[79:43]we talked about the behind the beat drumming on voodoo.
[79:45]He kind of inspires that sort of thing.
[79:47]And I feel like,
[79:48]yeah,
[79:48]I taught you about that.
[79:49]The third member of the dungeon family who did a lot of the production,
[79:53]here i think he was listening to that stuff too i i start to hear it so all i'm trying to say is i
[79:57]think that this um these guys are hardcore south they always will be but you hear them synthesizing
[80:05]other sounds in with what their style is on this one to stankonia stank love
[80:11]i mean can't you tell though like at some point they switch who's in charge of these songs like
[80:22]we went from so funky and so fast and like beat driven in the beginning to like dude i got these
[80:29]synthesizers and these mushrooms let's see what we could make at the end of this album
[80:33]yeah i think it's gonna be a difficult process for these guys where they don't agree on like
[80:38]what direction to take this and they've got different perspectives on what they think is
[80:41]good music right yeah or saying that you need to think of something to and then other people
[80:46]give you a look like oh don't say that man why'd you do that
[80:51]you
[80:52]my fault my fault sorry to bring it up yeah all right yeah it's hard to know are we looking at
[80:58]this with with 2021 eyes and saying oh we can definitely definitely hear them coming apart
[81:04]because you can hear it right but if at the time would i have thought that i don't know because
[81:09]strangely enough i didn't get into this album at the time well i can tell you i'm looking at
[81:13]them with 2020 eyes my vision's great did you skip like the last five songs
[81:22]did you or not i'm asking
[81:26]i mean you might have skipped a couple no i didn't skip any what are you guys talking about
[81:34]i think we skipped like four give me a song we skipped where do we skip
[81:38]slum beautiful no i did that one yeah prenup i'm not playing prenup that's an interlude
[81:46]yeah we played it although prenup was a pretty good interlude
[81:52]no roger dumbass russell it might be time to call in the closer i think that pitcher has done
[81:56]his job he's exhausted calling the closer let's go the rest of it i'm gonna finish off of the
[82:01]post game tonight it's a friday we can have a post game tonight right can we put enough clips
[82:07]to do a russell tribute show after this one what's the final ranking system
[82:12]for the ranking so like i just said i had 2020 vision ready to do this again now
[82:19]we have a replay of the siren
[82:22]oh my god that's the closers music
[82:26]this is gonna be the last episode we ever do
[82:31]i always thought we'd last exactly 66 episodes or whatever this is
[82:37]it's like 66 that was a magic number okay goodbye we just get like the nicest email
[82:41]ever from a fan of ours then we're like no thanks goodbye this is the third song i've
[82:47]heard in the last few weeks with water plopping i'm out this is the rating system uh it's a
[82:52]easily understood system because i go through it and step by step i hold your little baby hands
[82:56]i'm walking down we're walking down the street you're you're on your bike you're going in the
[83:00]street i'm drinking a beer uh so this is this this album is at 64 okay is this album a rolling
[83:08]well tone it is perfect at 64 64 give me more of these ratings because they're right on is this
[83:14]album a not as good as it rolling stones think it is and therefore it would be a rolling groan
[83:22]oh boy i really confused myself on this one or is this album better than the rolling stone think
[83:26]it is and therefore it got rolling boned it should uh it should be much better than it is
[83:32]it got rolling boned that's what i'm gonna start calling thank you aaron we don't need that every
[83:36]time um but what do you guys think is this a rolling well toned a rolling bone or is it a
[83:42]rolling groan matt what do you think i think this is rolling boned i think anything that outcast does
[83:48]this is me personally is just a rolling bone i think this is a rolling bone i think anything that
[83:52]about is a dynamic of a rap album that we hear on on this entire list and so i put a quimini ahead
[84:00]of this one but it's not i put i put aqua mini ahead of this one thank you but uh it's actually
[84:07]not pretty darn close and so i uh i would say this one got rolling boned personally oh uh aaron
[84:15]what do you think rolling well toned rolling bone or rolling groan i'm struggling a bit rolling well
[84:21]tone is when it's perfect i'm struggling with all these things i'm struggling with all these things
[84:22]at 64 it's right where it should be rolling boned is when it should have been higher but it's
[84:27]actually lower and rolling groan is when guess what you didn't like it you listen to it you go
[84:33]didn't like it so aaron what do you think i'm having a hard time now with all these albums
[84:38]that wouldn't have existed without funkadelic before we hear a funkadelic album so this is
[84:43]good point struggling with that uh i also in the winding path are you picturing this like a back
[84:52]is gone and you're looking at the album and it's turning to nothingness in your hand water plopping
[84:57]yes it just turns into water plopping and that's no shade to big boy and and three stacks i think
[85:03]they're the greatest rap duo i'm also having a hard time uh my winding path from big boy to
[85:10]kate bush then made me think of madonna you can't who i feel was either a contemporary or influenced
[85:17]by kate bush and i don't understand how we haven't had an album album by madonna yet so
[85:22]so as much as madonna out like way before kate bush wasn't she like 15 years before kate bush
[85:28]aaron i don't think so the kate bush album is from 85 so they got to be contemporaries right
[85:33]aaron did a bunch of research on kate bush i don't know if you listened to him earlier but he was
[85:37]he would have like that he has like the threads up he's got the yarn with the pins going around
[85:43]it's like kate bush and then it goes up to prince and then stevie wonder and then there's pictures
[85:46]of like huge shoes when aaron does analysis on kate bush albums he does like an abacus where he's
[85:52]those little little beads over on that thing but yeah i could be wrong correct me if i am wrong
[85:59]all i'm saying is i i'm having a hard time with this one because i think the highs are
[86:04]are incredible i love the musicianship i think the drumming on this one is and the
[86:08]drum programming is fantastic i love the mix of live musicians and uh since um and so i want to
[86:16]say rolling well tone but i i might have to give it a rolling groan because it's too much outcast in
[86:22]the top 100 before we get to some other artists uh that we should hear from i think that's the
[86:27]first album aaron's ever given a rolling groan to i know i love this album so i don't know but
[86:32]that's just where i'm feeling tonight i am so proud of myself because i did not interrupt
[86:35]aaron i'm gonna give a ranking or not russell give me a second to tell a joke you skip i'm not
[86:40]i'm not done i'm not doing my work i am not doing my bit i promise i'm just telling a joke aaron
[86:45]call off the dogs here i am so proud that i did not interrupt aaron because you interrupted a
[86:52]three times i did not he's done you've interrupted me now three times okay listen to me right now
[86:56]i am so proud to jump in because all i can think of with abacus is dancing queen see oh shit
[87:05]abacus
[87:09]guys it was a long i will i will forfeit my i will forfeit my time by the ranking to give you
[87:19]applause that was a fucking great thank you i love
[87:22]i appreciate it russell you're the best get it guys abacus
[87:26]matt do you get it like cuss like shit i uh i understand i understand the joke you're always
[87:33]talking about that stuff on the podcast it's gross russell what do you think rolling well
[87:37]toned rolling bone or rolling groan i love some of the songs on it bombs over baghdad amazing
[87:43]gasoline dreams i've never heard that song before i absolutely loved it you got the classics miss
[87:49]jackson so fresh so clean but i gotta say i'm not gonna lie to you i'm not gonna lie to you
[87:52]i'm just gonna put it into basic terms if i can't get through the album without wanting to stop it
[87:56]and turn it off then to me it's too high on the list there were i would get through half the album
[88:01]and i would i couldn't go any further so or to me i loved a few of the songs but it's rolling groan
[88:07]too high on the list i don't actually understand the rating system very well so thank you for
[88:12]explaining that to me um i am gonna say this okay you guys are unfortunately wrong this is a rolling
[88:18]evolution okay this and i've never used that one before this is a rolling evolution this is a
[88:21]this album is just evolution yeah this album is the beginning of a kind of hip-hop that we just
[88:27]see everywhere today right this is like seeing animals take their teachers here's these teachers
[88:31]putting their political perspectives into the classroom again evolution uh this is like
[88:37]this is like watching the first animal tickets now that's a good joke rap that's that's such a
[88:43]good joke russell burning down teachers is my favorite um watching animals take their first
[88:48]step on land to going all the way to humans like this album led to
[88:51]kendrick it led to kanye it led to all the other ones that wanted to go deeper than just uh doing
[88:56]simple rhymes over a drum beat like this is the this is the house of modern r&b in my mind but
[89:01]next up guys we've got a surprise for you okay is there one musician and i hope this doesn't go
[89:07]wrong this actually took a lot of work on my part is there one musician that we didn't get to listen
[89:11]to for long enough are you ready for star time give me more yes this is a man who's
[89:18]nationally and internationally is the hardest working man in show business
