[05:33]kitchen but what a day but what a way to live everybody's like damn that's a good musical and i'm like yeah it kind of is like if you put the right music behind that you're gonna hear it i mean i'm not behind it it sounds really good i'm in for beck did it better than musical i mean i really think we may have missed our calling why are we doing this every week when we're gonna just like sold the rest to a musical and just be like caking dude i would be so sweaty if i had to run around and sing and dance on stage for three and a half hours it would be a mess just every five

[07:34]garbage over there in the kitchen i'm pointing over there point over there in the kitchen where the garbage is so good that i buy custom bags for it like that's how good this garbage can is i cannot buy regular garbage bags at the store i have to buy custom size h garbage bags from simple human and they fit so perfectly like a glove i will never go back you suckers using regular garbage with your like weird size garbage cans gotta get a simple human so good my recycling

[08:30]a caller who is actually paying a compliment to man let's listen oh your episode on my bloody times loveless may have held matt's best insights of late pointing out how it sounds made its way onto more popular 90s bands keep up the good work you guys i gotta say that after that episode erin was on the episode talking about the breeders i've never heard the breeders in my life ever i i didn't want to say that because i want to embarrass myself but i was listening to my pandora ring and i heard a song i was like god this sounds like shoegaze music and i look at it and guess

[09:02]who it is it's the breeders i was like oh i'm so smart and i have smart friends this is so great so matt they're complimenting you saying that uh that shoegaze sound is a sound you hear all over the place with 90s bands and it wasn't my mother-in-law right i know that was not wow all right interesting rob would have used a much different bex voice if it was your mother-in-law bex again it would have been something totally different than the robot use that sexy casey case and voice i you know what i've actually i've actually gone back to that album you know are you serious yeah context like

[09:33]when when do you like to listen to it what's your like when are you like yeah if i'm at the gym and i don't know i've got to get a bike ride in or something right and there's a tv up there and i gotta have something on in the background i mean it's it's it's a decent album to just have on in the background kind of like what we talked about russell if you're just going to go out for a long run i forget what the album it was uh we were talking about but you know i don't know it's just it's it's just it's good music sounds like early 90s grungy heavy guitar you know so i don't i don't

[10:02]mind it well if you guys if you guys think oh those are going to be the only compliments we get just wait our little beck foot freaks are being complimented by the only compliments we get just wait our little beck foot freaks are being complimented by the only compliments we get just wait our little beck foot freaks are being real sweeties on the voicemail line oh nice let's listen to this one two follow-ups to the bad breath discussion first it's amazing that rob talked about stinky shoes and socks and how his feet smell without making some sort of foot fetish reference is that a sign of personal growth and maturity absolutely personal growth yeah my personal growth is through the roof

[10:32]right now okay i've got a growth ira and i'm just i'm just growing and growing and growing i'm exponential yeah he's always been a grower we knew he's a grower not a shower i think me talking about my stinky feet did and and not saying like oh why don't you come over and lick them lick between the toes you know put that heel in your mouth like okay okay you know stuff like that i think that's real maturity so you know what great real good restraint very nice you're right class restraints

[11:00]now you're talking no way aaron either has the chef's knife of breath or it's so bad because he brushes his teeth with dandelion toothpaste so great so aaron they're wondering if you have the chef knife of breath or is it so bad like dandelion so i don't think you ever exposed what is your opinion on your breath aaron are you normally rocking nice breath or are you self-conscious about your smelly breath because i think this really hits a chord with people of like everyone is afraid of being smelly that's a fear every it's like spiders snakes everybody has it yeah i got i mean i got more of a t-shirt issue

[11:32]i get like now i'd like i go through t-shirts real fast like i put on a t-shirt to go out to the garage to work out and i realize like up that t-shirt stinks and then i'm like oh my god i'm not going to go out to the garage to work out and i realize like oh that t-shirt stinks and then i'm going to throw it out but i think my breath is out i think my breath is okay wait you're throwing out shirts that smell yeah man they're like you eventually got to retire these shirts so you keep washing them as soon as you put it on and sweat a little bit it smells and you gotta he's he's not saying it smells because he's done working out he's saying like it constantly smells like he washes it takes it out of the dryer and it's got like a permanent funk that you know what that

[12:01]means yes bro are you using some toms of main shit to wash your clothes with like what you're using detergent should make your clothes not smell period no matter what the seventh generation stuff yeah i think oh no you can't be using that seventh generation that's like water that's like water then like flower petals there's nothing that's in there that's gonna clean your clothes and then you take a stinky shirt and you put it through the dryer that's just putting that stink in there permanently you have permanent stink now you're filling up landfill fills with

[12:30]old clothes and everything oh man bro you gotta get some tide pods my kids love to eat those things it shall keep up the good work can't wait for vegas stories i'm the bad news bears complimentary car keep up the good work you guys love the show that was the complimentary uh movie goer saying nice show so we are guys we're just getting so many compliments from our foot freaks out there i just absolutely love it so nice of the listeners to listen and then call in oh all right so that is the beck line if you want to call it it's 802-277-BECK 802-277-BECK uh what the now wait a minute we've never had this

[13:06]we got a call the beck line is actually ringing right now russell do you want to pick up the phone i got it i got i got it hello hey what's up uh this is uh this is meatloaf whoa meatloaf the food of the singer i'm meatloaf i'm meatloaf the singer actually i had a better run as meatloaf the singer uh meatloaf i i heard unfortunately that you had passed away earlier today or for our listeners a

[13:32]few weeks ago his name is robert paulson his name is robert paulson that you can get a serious i don't know who this guy is he's kind of a bummer i'm dead meatloaf i'm here to just have some fun i'll tell you what uh i'm i'm dead meatloaf i'm so covered in dirt i could use a bath out of hell you guys know what i'm talking about oh we're not even 24 hours past this yeah no i i'm dead not too soon though it's because i'm fat so everybody can make fun of me it's actually okay meatloaf while you're calling it i did have a question for if you're willing to take it out of your mouth

[14:00]meatloaf while you're calling it i did have a question for if you're willing to take it out of your mouth meatloaf while you're calling it i did have a question for if you're willing to take it out of your mouth i'm happy to take questions uh i would do anything for a fan you know what i'm talking about i was listening the other day uh after i heard you pass away today i was listening to the song paradise by the dashboard light and i and i read that or that's about losing your virginity in a car i was kind of curious what is the best way to have sexual relations in a car oh i i think that's easy i think what you do is uh you can actually uh put her in the trunk

[14:30]with her head facing the back seats uh and then you just mostly close the trunk and that's a good way sub question is i had this discussion i had this discussion with one of our listeners today is paradise by the dashboard dashboard lights both a top five good karaoke song and the top five most difficult karaoke song to pull off because you gotta have someone who can sing the hell out of it and you gotta have somebody who can vamp the phil risotto part i had this discussion with the listener and i'll tell you

[15:00]this is rob by the way i'm back i'm also talking to meatloaf uh i i uh i did do that song i got drunk before my sister's wedding and i did paradise by the dashboard lights it is also an all-timer song because it is like 10 minutes and there's nothing anybody can do it repeats over and over and over yeah yeah i i do love that song and i'll tell you why russell uh i'm one of the few people that have a top 10 song about somebody in a car right there's not many people that can say that that song is the whole thing yeah he's when i'm rounding second base

[15:30]erin a third base that's a second wait does anyone know have the bases ever been fully established what's first base erin do you yeah well there's definitely a point where there's someone on third and there's a suicide squeeze to send him home and if i'm right it's the only way the person's about to score meatloaf she stops him and says essentially if you're gonna sleep with me you gotta say you love me forever you gotta you gotta make me your wife i was kind of curious uh meatloaf you think it's okay to lie to a potential uh

[16:00]partner a sexual partner about whether you're in love with them in order to seal the deal i'll tell you what at the time if it's not a lie then it's okay okay at the time if you think that it might happen if you could do anything for love i think that that is perfectly fine uh what you do uh post coitus i think we have all have a certain kind of clarity whether we're closing browser windows or escaping out a bathroom window opening a trunk i tell them

[16:30]to go drop a meatloaf and then i i try to get out the window and then always it's a good uh maybe a follow-up question to that meatloaf so let's say you do let's say you they say excuse me can you just call me meat uh meatloaf was my dad's name loaf loaf i got you loaf loaf i'm curious if you if so let's say they do ask do you love me forever are you technically allowed to say am i allowed to sleep on it for a night can you tell your potential sexual partner i need to sleep on that question well that song was actually about uh i think one of the hardest songs i've ever heard

[17:00]is when you do have blue balls and you are trying to fall asleep uh if you are a stomach sleeper like i am uh you have to find that nice place between the mattress and the box springs to fall asleep otherwise you just cannot uh with trying to sleep on it it's tough you know how do you get between the mattress and the box spring that seems like a i'm trying to imagine the math how this works here it's don't picture me naked my eyes are up here okay i'm meatloaf and i'm dead so please respect

[17:30]that you guys are all married loaf loaf you're married too i was kind of curious once you were married uh and you have gotten laid at that point are you allowed to tell your spouse that you're now praying for the end of time to arrive so you can end your time with them or not oh no no not permitted it's permitted in the song not advised not advised no no it's not a role model not it is it is true uh when you do say to your spouse that you are now praying for the end of time uh so you're not allowed to tell your spouse that you're not allowed to tell your spouse

[18:00]so that that is how your relationship will be over hopefully this planet will hurdle into the sun killing millions if not billions ending the dreams of everybody and that would be better than being married to you that's a step you cannot you cannot take those words back what what would you what would you do for love what wouldn't you do for love meatloaf i'll tell you what there's been a lot of misunderstanding i'm kind of losing the voice there there's been a lot of misunderstandings about that song uh that song was actually i went through a period of time uh where i was obsessed with having sex with springs

[18:30]yeah i would do any spring for love and then they got written down wrong i was fucking slinkies i was i was fucking uh car shocks uh i even had sex between winter and summer rip it over rip it open mattresses yeah spring the spring yeah i was ripping over mattresses trying to sleep with the blue i was yeah can i sleep on it yeah you can sleep in it it's a mattress with a hole cut in it did that phase all go away when you got a loaf and crayon above and

[19:00]waterbed and you no longer had springs to sleep on the key was i had a waterbed heater i bought one on craigslist in memphis i got a great deal on it yeah we're going to hell this is really bad hey if you're going to hell you gotta call on me because you know what i did that was a bad out of hell too bad out of hell too came out like 20 years later for some reason it was a huge hit among middle school kids i i don't know because the do anything for love video was rocking man that was a great video yeah so hey uh

[19:30]r.i.p me i'm meatloaf okay so uh this is really wrong what oh wait who's that over there that i see who's that over there that i see let me oh we got a second line whatever he wouldn't do for love i'd do it twice and three times on sunday you guys know what i'm talking about speaking of callbacks panties in my face i fucked up

[21:00]it's wild to me that there was like i i've literally heard meatloaf i bet a thousand times just because he had that one album that in middle school everybody played over and over and over which is wild could an artist like meatloaf ever make it right now bad out of hell absolutely fucking rocks it does it's so good i don't know does anyone know what 43 i think an artist 43 million copies sold worldwide 14 time platinum uh best it's the best-selling album in australia of all time

[22:00]because i have been running a fake doctor's office for quite some time don't want to get into why but uh just rhymes with tongue depressor all right first of all i gotta give some shouts to a couple of beck did a better listeners who heard me talking on the podcast and sent me a minnesota link sweatshirt yeah amazing one but two different beck did a better listeners bought me a minnesota link sweatshirt for my birthday which i'm rocking tonight so i'm very happy about it

[22:30]that amazing you also have to issue a beck did a better apology to another one of our listeners who happens to be and now an apology from beck did it better i don't know when to play this your wife yes sounds like a song we're gonna hear today yeah i gotta say to my wife uh i i think i don't know exactly i've lost track now we did so many episodes but at some point i made a comment that i wanted to buy a new corkscrew to open wine bottles and she would not allow me to do so

[23:00]oh no turns out she had purchased for me a top shelf sommelier knife for christmas so now i have a beautiful uh laguio de brock uh sommelier knife so i can open wine bottles of wine in style so i've got to get absolutely different props and make a quick apology yep when you and your wife have wine do you like walk out with a a napkin or a cloth over your arm and then pour it over your arm for like a really fancy way or not i mean i will admit to doing that once in a while but i mean typically it's

[23:30]like uh you know we've got some you know wild crats on the television and we're just trying to get some get some happy hour in before the erotic you know what i'm saying and aaron's like aaron's like uh-huh i i talked to you about this and she's like i don't want to and aaron's like no no if you're the waiter you need to draw a mustache on your lips she's like okay fine she has to go back and draw a mustache here's like much better much better my son was out of school this week due to a covet exposer so we did a bunch of play dates with one of his other classmates who

[24:00]i've been watching some of those guys on youtubes and his classmate who came over to play at our house told us that we had a small house so even before we were about having a small house i'm picturing like my head on a little kid's body just being like what the fuck you're hanging your clothes up in your in your house these shirts stick these are terrible she was like you have a small house you don't even have an attic or a basement we're like well yeah that's that's true uh but did it hurt did it hurt at all like did it hurt when she said it or not yeah i mean of course it hurt when she said it or not i mean of course it hurt when she said it or not i mean of course

[24:30]it hurt and of course i thought of you guys right away like well write that down that's a rolling going right there like aaron's life monsters in the attic would just be monsters on the roof i mean it doesn't it's right what's the difference and finally i gotta say there's been much rejoicing in my house this week because uh due to uh supply chain constraints uh our coffee grinder was our coffee grinder was down uh i could not get a new burr holder for the coffee grinder so for two weeks we were grinding the coffee by hand and we now have replaced the burr holder and we are

[25:00]grinding the coffee uh in the machine once again so the manual coffee grinding is over everyone can relax and enjoy their mornings so that's it that's my rolling going i'm gonna say it again why do you keep that exciting story for the end why not leave with that okay oh my god aaron bought an appliance for his kitchen yeah so did everyone else in the world it's our fucking favorite thing to do i love buying you know what i bought for the kitchen the other day a device that i can put pork in and i spin it and it turns into pulled pork everybody is buying shit for their kitchen all the time i

[25:30]didn't buy i bought a replacement part for a thing that i already have but i had to wait for the part to come no god we already heard the story please we had to grind the coffee by hand so i had to use my old zossan house hand grinder that thing's hard man it's hard work yeah you're trying to grind 65 grams of coffee every morning it's not easy can you use it with the peanut butter or not or is it not is it coffee specific it's coffee specific i think you probably could use it for peanut butter but cleaning it would be a bitch it's

[26:00]all made of wood except for the burrs so that would be that'd be a real son of a bitch but i'm i don't know i kind of like the idea that little kid's a hey fuck are you grinding your hand by coffee what a dumb shit it's like oh my god this kid's back burning on me damn it this kid always sees me when i make mistakes so that's it's been a long time since we talked i've had a lot going on in my life that was that was the the totality of what's interesting in my life i listened to your podcast and there were parts that weren't that good actually i didn't like it very much it seems like you guys actually put a lot of time into it it's like oh my god there's so why are you wasting your time on this podcast

[26:32]hey your podcast hasn't grown listeners in the last six months how does that make you feel it's like oh my god this kid is really going straight for the heart yeah sometimes you make mistakes in your parenting it's actually going to cause long-term problems oh my god that's what i'm your chance of dying is a hundred percent it's like oh my god i don't need to think about this

[27:03]right now it's too real yeah why don't you go play in the other book go play a lot of legos make some love blasters uh i got uh matt how are you doing rolling going how's it going with you uh doing well doing well we uh three of us had the pleasure of spending some time together in vegas over the last weekend vegas yeah and i swear to god there was like somehow we got to figure out how to do this there's probably like 38 000 rolling going things to bring to talk about but i i don't remember any of them no i've got like two

[27:34]successful trips and i can tell you why you don't remember anything from the trip and it might be that we ran into two guys from richfield two randomly ran into two guys from richfield immediately almost on cue all three of us then woke up the next day in the hotel we're like wait what happened i met you guys woke up in the hotel no idea three other three the three other guys did i i knew what i was getting into yeah we should have matt was like oh no i won't i don't need a drink this time i'm not going to drink this time i'm not going to drink this time i'm not going to that should have set alarm bells off of like oh he knows like he's been swimming in these deep

[28:03]waters before he knows what's going on whereas we're like oh no we'll have drinks we'll have drinks and then literally two days later we had to go through the photos of the event to see like what time we got home well i was curious so so one of matt's buddies from richfield shows that we're at we're kind of like an outdoor bar type dance dance place where they've got like an i didn't know they were there right i mean this is like completely out of the blue i just happened to run into him so all of a sudden matt looks and he's staring at these guys and he's like oh my god i'm not going to drink this time i'm not going to drink this two guys and they got masks on and he's peeking at him and he's looking weird and all of a sudden

[28:32]they they all burst out they're hugging they're high five and they're so happy and immediately these guys are like well we're buying drinks for the group so these guys started buying a number of rounds but like what is what is the the etiquette when it comes to people are going to buy you drinks can you say no like i'm not doing a shot or if someone's buying you got to take it right yeah you have to yeah yeah yeah then you pour half it on the ground and then only shoot half of it and then you're lined up okay for the no i think it's better for you actually drink it all that night and the next day when you're supposed to be having fun

[29:02]in vegas you have to take a four-hour nap uh in the middle of one of the football games i actually think that's really fun all i know is i had i had one drink that probably quadrupled my jagermeister consumption over the last 10 years in one cup yeah that feels good that's a good yeah it was not good no you have to i mean you're only like at that point you're already there it's like you you've already made the choice you know you're there someone's gonna put a drink in your hand you have to drink it your only option is to sit in the hotel room by yourself otherwise if you're out you're out and if someone buys you a drink you take it and that when you sit in there

[29:34]by yourself it's always a worry because you never know if that belt's gonna get stuck right if that belt's gonna get stuck around the neck or right you need a buddy you need a buddy system with that belt you can't like you can't be in there by yourself on that somebody's gonna be in the bathroom we don't need a belt buddy system that's part of actually what gets you off matt what else did you notice about las vegas well i think i think the the thing that we miss kind of not being out in the room is the fact that we're not in the room we're not in the real world because of covid stuff it's just seeing all the weird people right and like you

[30:04]know us four we're not weird i mean we're just normal old people but you know to other people we're freaking weirdos who are sitting in bars for you know 17 hours straight watching three football games like some people would say who the hell why the hell would you do that thing so i tried to start writing down just a couple of like the funky groups that you see out in vegas no and there's not a lot of them and i'm sure people can keep going through more of them but you know some of them are you know there's there's the there's the guys who are probably

[30:33]like in their early 20s and they think they're really funny and they all dress alike right like they're all wearing like turtlenecks and gold chains or the sunglasses at night or the hawaiian suit combo i saw that a lot with its hawaiian shirt but it's a suit with shorts and then and then they would be like at the buffet i'm like look at these losers at the buffet with me how many guys do you think also have podcasts oh high percentage oh oh i'm gonna i'm gonna get a podcast where i sit down with like people

[31:03]and hear about like what they've gone through it's like what oh wow yeah yeah nobody's gonna listen to that okay you need to have a show where you're actually talking about like fucking holes in the ground and shit that's what people want the the obvious one is the bachelorette parties right i mean everybody comes out and rob i mean you know what bachelor parties right i was scanning but the best part of that the little the little nuance part of that the best part of it is that the the women who haven't been out in a long time or just or they're

[31:34]just not used to dressing up which is perfectly fine then they say everybody decides they got to wear like high heels or something and there's like two of the seven that are wearing high heels that maybe have never worn high heels ever in their lives that's about the worst city to have bad shoes on right doubling down there yeah he's gonna walk so much yeah because you're like oh let's go down just two casinos and it's like a mile away and then you have these women who look like newborn fawns and they're walking out they're like oh and then you can't sit down in a casino unless you're playing or buying a $25 cocktail

[32:03]right there's a million others but my favorite my absolute favorite every time i see it it just makes me laugh every time is you've got the hardcore gangsters right somebody who if you looked at them wrong they would absolutely kick the shit out of you you know they're from places that i've never been things like that they just you don't even want you you don't want to be on the same side of the street of them but all of a sudden you're like oh my god i'm gonna go to they turn you see them and they've got the big foot long or yard long like margarita and it's

[32:33]hanging over there or you go over there next and you're like oh god you guys you guys are in vegas this is awesome so that's that's my favorite can i share what one of my favorites yeah i saw a group of three guys and they were leaving a cvs store on the vegas strip and all three of them were carrying a six pack of oatmeal cream pies oh i was like why do each of them need a box of oatmeal cream pies they all three of them had an oatmeal cream pie box that sounds like lunch right there like you just and anywhere else that's like what the hell is going on here

[33:04]whatever it's good for you own it okay guys we're gonna go gambling and we're gonna buy whatever food we can with the money that's left and we're done gambling maybe we'll get to go to a nice five-star restaurant let's see cream pie this is 2 000 calories that'll last me two days if i stretch it so i think that's good that's what we'll do we need some energy to gamble all night so obviously do you have any observations well i was once in vegas and uh jenny and i my wife and i were playing blackjack and she turns to me and she goes oh my god those guys that walked by

[33:34]just squeezed my ass as they walked by what and i was like rob's run and i was like 25 and i was like papa don't take no mess i was like this i thought this is my fucking wife okay you will respect her okay she is trying hard to get into medical school and i have put all my money into this bet and i needed to hit you really bad and i'm talking about the medical school thing not the blackjack i'm playing so i stood up and i turned to face these guys and i'm thinking to myself i'm gonna beat the shit

[34:03]and these guys were so enormous they were walking away and they were like six foot five they were in like long leather trench coats and massive i could tell even in the trench coats they were huge now and i turn to jenny i go it'll be fine and i sit back down so that was fine it'll be fine yeah nobody nobody hurt your ass i was like oh that kind of is a rousing i kind of uh i'm a cuckold uh russell what are you rolling going how's it going with you

[34:36]rolling going rolling going it's good i'm gonna say the whole word cuckold by the way i think cuckold sounds really classy it's like oh yeah yeah oh i love to watch my wife get hit you know get rammed get her guts rearranged by other men when you're a cuck it's like gross it's disrespectful hold as though you were like a person who likes to have your cuck held which i think that's a whole different that's a whole different thing no a cuckold is a guy but like i'm watching my wife i get it you don't have to

[35:01]explain but i have a but i have a monocle on you know what i mean like i got my monocle and i'm like yes sir keep slamming my wife good sir i'm gonna film you just from behind so i can just see your balls and ass i mean and i don't just want your breath that way like if i stay back here they're always like i'm gonna zoom in on this guy's ass i'm like what is this is the issue right uh russ rolling going how's it going with you rolling going i'm gonna stick with the vegas

[35:34]theme and uh you brought up cuckolds so i gotta have a question about what happens when there's another guy in your bed so i here so we go to vegas and okay we're gonna we go to vegas and we are right at this outdoor place the richfield uh the richfield guys show up everyone's taking shots we're having too many drinks at some point we gotta go and we gotta do like the 25 30 minute walk back through the vegas strip to get to the hotel and matt is the soberest of the group right

[36:02]so the three of us are essentially just staring at matt's the back of his head and following him wherever he goes because if one of us gets lost in one of those casinos we're done forget it's a good wheel to follow yeah he's a good wheel and matt and matt is a a plus player when it to navigating locate confusing locations yes he can get through casinos uh 10 times quicker than i can do it so eventually we get back and we had two adjoining rooms with the open door and earlier in the night one of the rooms weren't ready so a few of us two of us had put our bags in the other room

[36:33]and so we walk in and it's like 3 30 in the morning and we go lay down and we're like i'm laying in the bed and all of a sudden i turn and i look and rob's in the bed next to me and just his underwear and i was like well this is getting kind of weird and like at first i thought he was looking around like oh i'm just gonna try to joke around with russ for a second here and i'm like he kept laying there and it felt like for like five ten minutes and i was like this is starting to get weird and so i go i i say something along the lines of rob what's going on and then i

[37:00]realize oh i'm in the wrong bed so i essentially look at matt and rob and i say wait am i in the wrong bed and you're all wrapped up you're snuggled up ready to go to sleep and yeah i sandwich that heated up in the microwave i thought he'd like it so so matt who's the only sober one in the group informs me that yes i am actually in the wrong bed i'm supposed to be in the other room in the on the other side of the door so i get up i go to bed but it made me start

[37:33]thinking at what point in life do you become too old to share another bed with someone like you're like i can afford my own room or i can afford my own bed because you guys remember when we were to iowa for a football game and we had nine guys stay in one red roof in rooms nine guys in a room but at what point in life are you no longer sharing a bed or no longer sharing a room i will say about that about that nine men in one room trip i slept ladies calm down i slept between steve that steve

[38:04]and zach i slept in the same bed with that steve and zach so the ladies they would never recover from that kind of experience oh man you're never like we're never gonna have our own room in las vegas you have to have a roommate you do not want to wake up alone in las vegas that's the saddest shit ever yeah it's true you're gonna wake up hungover as shit you always need someone to turn to and be like why do i feel so terrible i also feel terrible well we're gonna be okay let's move on aaron you'll get a kick out of this so i was matt's roommate and first of all rooming with matt

[38:31]is like rooming with your dad it's exactly the same i come in he's watching a kevin costner movie draft day very closely he's like just what happens in this draft day and then he he's got all these things but the thing is is i said oh can i put on my sound machine he's like oh yeah yeah yeah so i put it on i would say matt fell asleep uh it probably took him about one and a half seconds to fall asleep as soon as i turned off the light put on the sound machine he started snoring and and then when we woke up in the morning we realized our shower was connected to the room

[39:04]aaron and all it had between it and the room was frosted glass so you could see our outlines as we were showering it was i mean it was just great and then the last day matt irish goodbyed me in the morning i woke up and he was gone his bag was packed he was out of there he was totally he left you a 50 bill and a note with a heart on it yeah yeah it was like 10 bucks 10 bucks and like a rapid test for a test for what i think that my thing is i i wouldn't i i love the irish goodbye

[39:36]in most situations but if i were sharing a hotel room with a guy i like to get a hug goodbye i don't i don't want to i don't want an irish goodbye if i'm sharing a hotel with one it was like it was like seven in the morning though so like i didn't want to wake rob up i was so happy i feel yeah so rob says you know before i mean as long as i get the hug i'm good like that's all i need if it's not before that's as long as and again you got to make sure if you're the one paying for the room and the other person's kind of you know there you got to make sure you get

[40:00]your money so there's a slot there's a few situations where you might have to wake the guy up just to make sure you get your cash otherwise you'll never see it yeah only there's only a couple people like that i think there's i think too though the fact that i sleep uh with my butt way up in the air and face down i think that that made man i want to wake me up too it's the only way i can sleep i sleep like a baby that's like biggie biggie says i sleep on my stomach so i don't fuck on my sheets oh shit i pushed the wrong one oh well we'll let it play where did that one go i think i deleted it i deleted mattress and then you bring up biggie

[40:33]nice job all right so rolling going how's it going with you how's it rolling with rob i'll tell you what my wife is fucking out of town for this whole week oh nice oh he's recording a podcast this place is a mess and i will not clean it up until the last second i will not clean it up until a half hour before she comes home i will be scrambling okay that is how are your feet up on her puzzle table or not that puzzle is put away the feet go wherever they want i do whatever i want i am i'll tell you

[41:05]what when my wife is out of town i am sleeping window it was 14 degrees out window open last night nice okay dog the only way to do it i'll tell you what when my wife is out of town i am it was great and then my my youngest one came in she was like oh can i come sleep in your bed i was like yes this is like the perfect night this is the greatest thing ever i love it first of all let me just be very clear i love my wife marriage is going fine but i love it when she is out of town and i just a sound machine turned up anything i want i don't have to stay stock still when i'm

[41:30]going to bed i'm not sleeping next to a pit of vipers i am not some sort of operation game where i can't touch the edges or i will get yelled at i can do and guess what it's great it's wonderful it's no problem we also have ordered out three nights in a row now so do you do you normally use the sound machine when she's there or not yeah but i have to use a quieter one because the other one is voice activated and if i talk while she's trying to go to sleep she she gets up she yells at me what are you doing i'm trying to sleep well because that because that that noise machine was loud and i guess i mean it didn't but you know it's fine but i mean that thing is yeah aaron's

[42:03]right my hearing is fucked from that thing i'm just excited it's the way it is the white noise is fucked up my hearing i cannot do it anymore don't you guys think it's kind of a bad thing to get hooked on a sound machine like when the first time you start using it now you're always going to need that right wouldn't it be more fun to be hooked on the miami sound machine like if you just like you couldn't sleep without gloria stefan like that would be that would be some shit like if it was imagine if it was like rhythm is going to get you all night long with a rat

[42:31]we should sell miami sound machines oh my god do you think we can get the willetium to promote it do that conga don't yourself any longer feel the rhythm other music getting stronger do that conga i just pull up the hotel i'm like i'm so sorry i can't sleep without a sound machine can i put on a sound machine man it's like oh yeah sure turn the lights off it's like

[43:01]rhythm is gonna get you rhythm is gonna get you rhythm is gonna get you tonight all that will be put in the background it's gonna be so good wouldn't it be weird if we had to be roommates and i showed up and you had the miami sound machine and i had a rage against the sound machine and it was like fuck you i won't do what you tell me fuck you i won't do what you tell me

[43:30]rhythm is gonna get you rhythm is that'd be nice that's a good combination i like that it's a good match miami sound machine by the way one of the best is so is there anything you guys do when your significant other is out of town and you have the whole place to yourself is there anything you like to treat you know i turn to the girls and i always say hey you know what the rules are for when mom's gone and they always say no rules and i go that's right we do whatever we want hasn't aaron said before he likes to eat shrimp or something like that like yeah i like to eat weird food yeah like just like to eat like anything on a tortilla just like whatever i got

[44:01]thrown on a tortilla anything weird just like mix up some scrambled eggs put some whatever if i asked this question last time my wife was out of town was i that excited last time too all right we might have a new listener since then one no we don't no yeah i've checked them i've checked we have we don't hey this is the show i really like okay they listen it's just like us talking about what's on a burger with sound effects oh wait why do you like this show

[44:30]they mostly talk about their college experience i don't know the the whole um meatloaf parody eight hours after he passed away might draw some listeners that might help you this is coming out in a couple weeks that's true okay it's gonna be funny again by then don't worry he will have had a big memorial service somewhere like you know the big meatloaf memorial will have happened it'll be on cnn and everything and then yeah we'll be like oh yeah i want to think about meatloaf let me check out this podcast that mentions him and oh my god they're putting him in a monster truck driving him around like dmx by the way please put me in a monster truck

[45:01]and drive me around fuck yeah it's well put me listen it when you looked i thought meatloaf was going to die in like 1995 so the fact that he lasted this long was a big deal for me i think this long i think is like hey big ups to modern science for keeping meatloaf alive that guy looked like a chicken nugget like with hair on it like he did not look like a healthy guy aaron doesn't know what they look like paulson aaron doesn't order those at mcdonald's he doesn't know what they look like filet of fish man all day that's it the filet of fish should we get to the album is this a music podcast i don't think so not really we did we talked about meatloaf already

[45:33]i think we're done with the music for today yeah we did our memorials we did our in memoriam for meatloaf i mean i did let's talk about meatloaf let's talk about meatloaf let's talk about meatloaf let's yeah let's get to rob's three things in a way i mean honestly in a way we talked about meatloaf in a way that was both respectful and legally it was parody so it's like it's not actually liable if it's parody you know it's parodies nuts all right we have the who who is like in 1969 releases tommy right nice which which is a wild album it's just like it's it's

[46:04]literally a rock opera shout out and it's a hit shouts to ann margaret and elton john why why are you saying that no i'm not talking about the movie and margaret's fine as hell in the movie that's it go ahead this is a music podcast aaron we do not have time to talk about movies right now okay fair please we need to focus up uh and so they were like well what are we going to do we've been touring all year playing this tommy stuff we got to come up with new material so what do you do when you've written the greatest rock opera of all time that nothing will ever surpass

[46:34]i mean when you say rock opera people think tommy so what do you do if you're that band you try to write another rock opera that is what you do that is exactly what you do and so uh p townsend basically came along the guitar player and said i've got this thing called life house everybody's like oh lighthouse and he's like no it's life house and they're like life house and he was like yeah life house it was this idea that he uh said was a futuristic rock opera and then another time he said well now it's a live recorded concert album

[47:02]and then he said it's actually a script for a film so he kept changing what it was but it was kind of a futuristic thing and so what happened is that idea got abandoned they didn't want to do life house opera anymore so that's why we have so much synthesizer on this album is that the synth was being used for that futuristic concept and p townsend liked it so much he's like god dang i gotta put this in all my songs but not as like a lead instrument i want to do it as like a rhythm section and so that's what for example we hear uh to start like uh bob o'reilly and stuff like that

[47:32]wasn't there a band called life house was the band life house named after the the apocryphal album life lighthouse life house oh my god how deep does this go sorry okay yeah yeah and now that i think about it like it's kind of like vaccines are controlling our mind i mean you know what i think like i'm digging deep on this stuff and i think aaron's making a lot of sense i wouldn't know i haven't had one so i i mean maybe you guys are being controlled but yeah i'm still doing my own research over here you're immunized you just haven't got a vaccine

[48:04]i'm immunized yeah i'm watching a lot of joe rogan clips the show is too long but i watch the clips uh and then i have to say the only other thing i want to say is that their idea for a live show at one point was that everyone in the audience would put in some sort of data into a computer and the show would end with a chord that was played using the data that people put in so it'd be like this universal chord nerds total nerd i was like that it's pretty terrible but

[48:32]it's cool that they like this is the kind of stuff where like now you're reading a book and you're realizing you think about anything that's going on with a computer was already thought of it's just now that like due to moore's law the computational power is strong enough to try it but like way back in 71 people already had these ideas they just couldn't make it happen it's true they were like we've categorized porn how can we make it easier for people to watch if only computers would come along a lot of people don't know it but that was the uh second thing alan turian worked on was after whatever code or whatever it was okay bbw whatever all right

[49:04]let's listen to the album we are going to start out with baba o'reilly yeah i know right like i don't know if the album lives up to this first track bully but this is in the top five opening tracks right this is a good this is a good bookend album too it opens and ends awesome good call now i would say pearl jam often plays this song live

[49:32]and kind of their uh you know one of the last songs that i've listened to is pearl jam last few songs they play so hearing this song live is unbelievable so think of it it's it's a great song overall and a lot of people mistakenly call baba o'reilly teenage wasteland and i yell at them every time they do so i'm helping i'm helping make things better but the reason they were singing teenage wasteland is they were looking at the mess that was left behind people uh after concerts and they were like bro this is a real teenage wasteland their other song was called recycling let's do it uh did you guys did you guys

[50:04]recycling it's only 35 effective do you guys understand what's what's the what's the name of the song about do you know what wasn't this like a guru or something they were yeah he's um here it was this i remember it was a spiritual guru of pete townsend and essentially he combined one of his favorite composers and his spiritual guru and he said if if my spiritual guru were to turn into music this is what he would sound like i was like that's kind of a cool way to come up with a song

[50:34]35 years without ever speaking could you imagine if you could not speak for 35 years rob what would you do i what i mean how would you even use siri like siri you turn siri off right away i turned siri off on my phone first thing don't need it what if we turn this podcast into like a john cage type of thing we're like we're all gonna not speak for 35 years but we're gonna have a podcast about it's so good like you're like oh baba baba i got you this alexa

[51:04]he's like it's useless to me but he wouldn't say that can you imagine having a a spiritual guru though i mean like it just seems nuts to think about having a spirit like following one person that closely i don't know i could be your spiritual guru man tell me tell me something that's going on right now um what is going on oh i mean that's the thing nothing's going on

[51:31]all right so i want you to take that feeling you have shove it down shove away down you don't need to hear it or whatever let's not get into the depth of anything i think this is good enough that's true i think about matt if my feelings ever well up i just i remember like maybe matt's my spiritual advisor just if you keep if you keep shoving them down eventually they go away they never come back up they never come up at bad situation you just keep shoving them down and they'll stay down there you don't have to worry about them ever again it definitely doesn't cause you to yell at your kids too much in public and then you actually think about that

[52:01]for about the next 10 years and feel insanely guilty about it even though nobody else on the earth remembers it but that's cool uh guys just like when i'm out shopping for my pants at goodwill okay bargain i don't know there is something about roger daltrey's voice that is so distinct and so powerful i i mean the members of this band right keep moon on drums one of the best ever yeah one of the best ever pounds on guitar one of the best ever daltrey on singing

[52:34]guys is like a led zeppelin light but they're this is i mean they are jamming what do you think adultery's voice here and where do you put him in like the all-time rock voices i mean i don't think he's quite up there with plant in terms of great rock voices to me freddie mercury is the best rock voice but daltrey's got to be up there in the top five he's one of those where when i try to sing along i realize like now i should probably just not try to sing along you know what my favorite

[53:02]rock voice is who can you what the rock it doesn't matter what your favorite rock voice but i mean like all of these guys right you kind of realize i mean the lead singer gets a lot of the credit right and sometimes these musicians can be the best out there but because they've got such a unique and awesome lead singer uh you know it really

[53:30]brings that band from like uh oh these guys are awesome into like a whole new they're in the mainstream and everybody knows who they are and i think you got that with the who here um you know without the lead singer that they've got here and obviously i don't know who second place guy would be or anything they're not going to be as popular as they are in my opinion yeah but but like the song bargain right any other album that would be a top song on the album that'd be one of the top songs like that is a legit good song like it's bargain the best i ever had like

[54:00]it's just it's so interesting i think sonically and do all these songs start to run together after a while yeah of course they do okay for one but the my wave um but it's it's like it just is i think it's just so like this there's this album is chock full of hits i think the problem is we've just heard these hits a million times at least if you're listening to oldies as much as i did and we've heard i mean it's been a while since we heard an album from england from this time period but like i was playing in the house today and adam was like oh this sounds like elton

[54:30]john and so you know we've heard actually we haven't heard elton john officially on the list yet but we we listened to that as a test record you know the beatles i think are in their own kind of thing but we heard some stone stuff we definitely heard bowie stuff that like kind of lines up with this so you like you start to realize they're part of a a larger thing and so you you don't attribute the greatness to them as much as you just do like oh this is a movement of of you know rock music in england guys just like the timberwolves found out love ain't for keeping oh man

[55:00]kevin love is starting to look old and we saw him on the other tv on the tv the other night we were like oh he's looking kind of old and then he's 33 fucking years old yes jesus christ he's only 33 yes yeah awful it's just terrible listen to his voice like you try to sing with try to sing along with roger delta in this it's hard he's i mean his voice is in that he's definitely like a high tenor it's hard to sing along but i really like this album the music is fantastic we've been

[55:30]talking about daltry's vocals but like the drumming is fantastic the guitars the synths like we've had a lot of albums where i haven't loved the synthesizer but i think it's pretty badass and this and then you have this one it almost feels a little bit more of like a country song than the other ones yeah i just i really enjoyed it i would encourage everyone to find the other original version of that song loving for keeping where they have the synths back in and they have guitar being played by leslie west of mountain fame mississippi

[56:00]queen i mean a famous famous guitar hey rob i'll tell you what sounds so good i'll drop that song in the background why don't you sing it again and i'll drop it in the background god damn it yeah remember the coors light commercial with mississippi queen in the you know and twins rob remembers that's on his alexa search turn that up do you would you like to be married to somebody who's a twin would that be

[56:30]i think it's creepy i think i think twins are creepy agree they creep me out somebody's alexa just go off that was mine yes sir alexa buy fleshlight oh jesus christ my one up alexa stop it's like again you're not creeped out by twins rob and twins no i don't think i i think it'd be kind of fun right because it's like rob and roy i don't know why it would be fun rob it'd be fun

[57:02]no i'll tell you you know that you know i would love to have a twin oh my god my twin and i would just be like flexing each other like hey how does my back look it'd be like god damn dude your back looks great then roy would turn be like oh damn dude your back is great too and we'd just be high-fiving and like it'd be great do twins riding our little riding our little motorcycles around so do twins always stay looking like each other like how come you never see like twins where like one's gained 100 pounds and the other one's still like in great shape like wouldn't that suck to be the twin you're like oh i'm the one who's gone sideways you realize like you just have this

[57:34]tiny little dong and your twin is just swinging this thing and you're like oh now are you serious we're not identical turns out we are fraternal twins that was nurture and not nature what happened you think back and your twin is just like hammering goat's milk and you're like i don't want any goat's milk it's like damn it i knew there was something there shit he's going sticky fingers and you're like two you're like coke mini bottle you know

[58:02]rob if rob if you didn't have a twin would you guys ever try to pull the switcheroo on your wife and my wife this song is actually this song is actually about my in uh the internet it's called my wi-fi did you guys read what this song is about it doesn't this is a song it doesn't make it doesn't it's not romantic from what i can tell russell what do you got my understanding is it's essentially a guy gets drunk gets thrown in like the drunk tank gets

[58:30]thrown in prison because he's so drunk and the whole time he's worried like my wife is gonna think i'm cheating on her because i didn't show up tonight that's what the song is about what a great premise for a song the guy gets so hammered he's drunk and he's worried his wife thinks he's cheating this is great pretty funny that's pretty funny so that song is all john entwistle john entwistle did everything on that song the bass player he played the bass he played the horns on it was everything and john entwistle of course famously had an all-time death one of the best

[59:03]deaths of all time right up there he's on the mount deathmore or sure 100 do you know how john entwistle died well if it was today should we do a parody of him i would love to do a parody of how john entwistle died he was found to be dead of uh cocaine with a stripper in a las vegas hard rock uh hotel room well i i got three out of four eight i'm still alive but the rest of them were fantastic it's like a hooker stole all my stuff and sold it for cocaine that's a lot like john entwistle isn't

[59:34]it i read that that was the only song that wasn't like meant to be on lifehouse was kind of just a thrown in song and it absolutely sounds like it's a thrown in song it's completely different than everything yeah and it's just they should have just axed it it's also the one song that sounds like it would have been better recorded in america because those horns are nothing like horns we've heard on some other music music music us albums like it just to me it's just it's not there you realize how talented pete townsend is

[60:00]when you hear like what john entwistle came up with you don't you guys think that windmill guitars please that's one of the biggest benefits of having a roommate in vegas is that no one decides like they get drunk and they need to get a a prostitute because you've got a roommate that's gonna ruin it for you right there was a prostitute rosie in the hotel who showed me her breasts as i walked by like she was at a slot machine she was wearing a suit coat and i walked by and she showed me her breasts and i was like what the hell i was like i i like didn't know what to do i was like circuits malfunction i was like

[60:31]i was like ed 209 when he can't go down the stairs i'm like like falling over we are far enough into the episode where most people have dropped off but rob was killing it on the dance floor rosie i mean checks were just all he had this awesome shirt on he had the moves i mean everybody just wanted to dance with rob he was killing it you guys send me a picture of you and my immediately adam was like i love that shirt like that rob was like yeah rob got numerous compliments on that shirt like

[61:00]we were going down an escalator on the strip and some lady was like great shirt yeah and and to be fair rob is about the most harmless person on the dance floor right like he's not grabbing he's not he's awesome he's just doing his thing he's dancing fun he's getting he's getting cock blocked by people's you know friends out there like it was it was hilarious they saw me as a threat for sure yeah you're just too much fun man yeah yeah no that was they were oh it was a i was it was a real pull to the cider moment

[61:31]there's another call back somebody said oh you're like the steve of our group that's the highest compliment i've ever gotten in my entire life that rob that rob that rob the song is oh you know this is so confusing because it has the author before each song so it says the who the song is over and i'm like who the song is over it's like i don't understand this what kind of name is the who like what is that from does anybody have any idea i'm assuming it's just like a play on words like the bare naked ladies like you've got you've just you're messing

[62:02]with the the audience i feel like in the in the british rock tradition or in the in in the rock and roll world there are you know beatles people rolling stones people and the who people and i only know i only knew one the who person if you're out there my friend michael um shout out to you because you were the one the who person i knew but it would be fun now to talk about the who person now to look at the you know what's the family tree like which bands descended from the beatles which one's descended from the stones which one's descended from the who because that's pretty much

[62:31]it for pearl jam pearl pearl jam is is uh the who okay i like it you know neil young the who i mean they're definitely come from that tree right so like garage rock pretty much came from the who i would have mocked someone before for saying they're a who person but after listening to this i get it they're pretty awesome i get it i'm all i'm on it's solid here i mean for example here's a song both daltry and townsend are going to sing here listen to this and this is a you could argue this is a one of the low points of the album

[63:05]and it still is like so good i think great drums anything out of this i noticed the drums too i love this so i i was reading a little bit about um i'm having a brain fart uh keith moon keith moon i was looking rolling stone named him the second greatest rocker in the world and he's the second greatest rocker in the world and he's the second greatest rocker in the world and he's the second greatest rocker in the world and he's the second greatest rocker in the world and he's the second greatest rocker in the world and he's the second greatest rocker in the world and he's the second greatest rocker in the world and he's the second greatest rocker in the world and he's the second greatest drummer of all time behind bottom behind bottom i was like that's that's pretty high praise and i was i was thinking my favorite parts of this album were like these drum these drum

[63:31]parts where you're transitioning and so i started reading about it these are called drum fills you guys are music experts you might understand that but like my understanding is a drum fill is kind of where you have a pause in the music or you're transitioning and all of a sudden instead of the normal rhythm of the drum they shift it up and it energizes the transition right is that right totally yeah it's like a music transition it's like a music transition it's like a music transition miniature solo i'll have to ask my good buddy who plays the drums uh phil it's drum phil it's him he's a he's drum so i thought we could do a list in honor of can't

[64:06]wait for our live show our live show is gonna be awesome in honor of people i thought we could do the best drum fills in rock song this sounds awesome okay i'm in for this i'm here for this oh we've done a lot of good drums before we've done a lot of good drums before we've done a lot of good drums before though like remember nirvana teen spirit superstition rock and roll by zeppelin jeff percar with toto we've done a lot of these before but we're not going back we're always moving forward on this podcast we're going to do songs we haven't heard before so the first one on the

[64:33]list is phil collins in the air tonight oh yeah you can't beat this one you can't beat this one okay get ready to talk i can feel it i can feel it i can feel it here it comes oh boom yes one of the classics but i'm telling you you can listen to that looped hundreds of times in a row it'll put your brain in a weird state you know that song reminds me of uh rooming with matt too because after you'd fall

[65:01]asleep it's coming in the air tonight is but it's like i got the sound machine on i i was i was reading when you think there's a sound machine smell so sweaty skeet skeet skeet matt's like my shirts are like errands they all smell too i don't understand why who knows it could be anybody um i had something here i think um at one point uh is it about drum phil

[65:30]oh i was just gonna say phil collins had listed keith moon as one of his favorite drummers and it turns out that he almost or he offered to leave genesis to replace keith moon for the who after he died but he didn't wow isn't that crazy that's wild because phil collins was a drummer yeah and then he ended up filling in uh who left genesis peter gabriel peter gabriel yeah then he became the lead singer after that so then he actually stepped out from the drums yeah next

[66:02]song we may have done this one before but there's been so many good hendrix songs i thought we would do this one again this is little wing i'm not sure if this was on our the first hendrix albums we've listened to or not check it out no it hasn't no it's on access boulders love well she's mitch mitch right aaron we did a little wing that's a great image mitchell great guitar fill we actually did this song on a glockenspiel list so that's pretty amazing this song has great glockenspiel

[66:30]and great drum fills that is such a fucking waste of time oh my god rob isn't it the worst when you get a little wing like you go to get buffalo wings and they give you a little wing you don't get a bunch of big wings i fucking ordered wings from dominoes the other day they were so small i was like don't sneeze the small wings are so because they're always overcooked but i would take two small wings over one giant wing like i would like if you could split two yeah because you get like more more skin more surface area when you go to the county fair and i always see the turkey legs i'm like oh those look good and then i get it and i'm like oh yeah that's right

[67:02]it's a turkey leg turkey this is not good this is like the worst cut of meat you can possibly get like i think they're so good but they take a long time to eat and then you're stuck there holding the turkey leg like well this is kind of gross like am i giving off pathogens yeah aaron's eating the whole bone cost eat half that thing throw the rest away i like it yeah practical aaron you've talked about love and mitch mitchell before did you guys know he actually auditioned for the who and then keith moon came in and auditioned and blew everyone away so he got the job over uh mitch mitchell

[67:32]oh fascinating so good russell next song on the list this is not back next time on the list this is not quite a rock song but we need to hear the drum fill anyways this is the the themes the theme song from the muppet show check this out an animal animal animal is awesome that is a great are your kids muppet fans or not not yet but now they're about to be like that's amazing can i can

[68:03]i say something please can i say something uh i i am actually my name is kermit the frog and i'm actually dead and i just saw meatloaf that's all i wanted to say hi ho kermit the frog here it's so i've never noticed the drum fill on that one did you guys know that the muppet band is actually called dr teeth and the electric mayhem yep i did know that yes i knew that i also knew and so each of the muppets are actually supposed to be inspired by prominent real life musicians and

[68:30]it turns out that animal a lot of people believe urban legend is that animal was patterned or inspired by keith moon holy shit is this they've got a very similar playing style because when you hear keith moon it's a ton of symbols in the fill and that's exactly what animal sounds like i think now i gotta see how russell keeps i gotta see how he keeps going to tie in all these back to keith moon let's see if you can do it there there was a really cool thing about this though i was reading that so a lot of people think well maybe it's john bonham maybe it's leave on helm it's someone else that's inspiring animal but it turns out that john henson the guy who made the muppets also

[69:03]created fraggle rock and one of the characters was named wembley which is where keith moon was born so it's like kind of confirmation right he was into keith moon internet breadcrumbs john's dead john or paul's dead paul's dead i'm just gonna say jim henson so we don't have people angrily emailing and it's jim henson i was gonna leave that alone see if anyone actually magic mike 69 magic mike 69 would have definitely called our fact checker was right on that next

[69:31]song on the list this is almost if you would say i would say like a mount rushmore of drum fills and if we're doing a mount rushmore we gotta go with rush this is rush tom sawyer check this out neil rush more he's got the largest drum set a long time too it's enormous oh i don't know should we put brian adams on the mount rushmore no fuck you rush

[70:01]neil pert fucking and that's a power trio you gotta remember rush is a trio of a band it's only three guys that's the craziest part of it they get he's doing everything in that interesting thing though is neil pert who's obviously also considered one of the greatest drummers of all time right said that one of his influences they didn't play a lot a lot of like because he he um i think keith moon was kind of more out there like his stuff didn't make sense like it wasn't at the times that you would normally hear drums and i think neil pert might be a little bit more

[70:33]conventional i don't know if that's the right way to put it absolutely technical like is that right man the technical love the technical side of it loved all the jazz drummers was a huge drumming nerd from the technical side of things but he did say that keith moon was one of the first drummers to get him really excited about rock drumming his irreverent and maniacal personality as expressed through his drum affected me greatly so neil pert also inspired by keith moon oh delightful so good do you think neil pert is ever like hey can you

[71:00]ask me questions that aren't about drumming like i actually like a lot of other things too do i have to talk about drumming all the time you know what he doesn't anymore yep not anymore he's also dead with me might be talking to neil pert in a future episode that's like what people only ask you about podcasting rob and you're like can't people ask me about anything else like feet hey by the way by the way rob how come we got your got your christmas card both of them you know this week oh jenny puts in there that you know kind of what's going on in everybody's life she puts in

[71:31]there rob's got a podcast but doesn't mention the podcast is she ashamed honestly ashamed honestly she does not know the name of the podcast there's no way she knows the name of the podcast you know what she just said to me yesterday she goes that alanis morissette one was so good and i was like oh thank you time machine traveler like i was like where's the smoke where's the light coming in she was listening that's great we're past that all right another song on the list we're getting near the end here this is led zeppelin whole lot of love we got to do a john bonham song if we're doing drum fills right bottom for drum fills

[72:02]yeah no doubt it's pretty badass so good it's totally badass i mean i feel like you can hear the bottom influence on neil pert right it's like a lot of notes it's like mozart interesting thing about this when you guys were talking about john entwistle the bassist earlier in may of 1966 keith moon and uh john entwistle recorded an instrumental on bex bolero beck our guy jeff beck with with page john paul jones and

[72:33]jeff beck and when they were hanging out that night it turns out that who do you think came up with the idea for the name for led zeppelin keith beck keith he just said if we started a band together it would go over like a lead balloon so when they were starting a band when they were starting led zeppelin they went back to him and said hey can we use that for the name of the band keith moon god is the reason led zeppelin has that name so keith moon is the greatest rock and roller ever i think like by the time we get to the end

[73:04]of this of this list like he's literally the greatest rock and roller and guess what another totally dead guy barfed died on his own barf in true rock and roll fashion i thought like a number of guys on this list actually i thought we could pay dr teeth i thought we could pay him a little homage though and we could go to bex bolero here and just check out keith moon's drumming uh before we end the list i want to hear it it's badass yeah that's a rock and roll yeah that's a rock and roll like he's just looking

[73:35]good loud as shit like boy there's something i hear some little kiss in there so so we didn't we didn't have any birthday holes to fill tonight but we got some drum fills instead i've decided that birthday hole is now going to be called a whole lot of love a lot of love i like it yeah i think that's good a whole lot of love so russell would you say who do you think got the best band together of uh johnette whistle and

[74:04]and uh keith moon and that roger daltrey was not in who got that band together back did it better okay good that's just one right all right let's go back to the album and talk about getting in tune one of my favorite songs i love songs where singers are singing about singing uh blues traveler hook is this where he's just singing about how a song just needs a good hook

[74:30]and that's all it is it brings you back and then this guy listen to the lyrics of the song yeah just all you need to hear i'm in tune right but i think i actually think he's out of tune for a lot of this song like i think i don't know if it's the joke or not that i am yeah there's like definitely parts he's out of tune right there right like i feel like ironical part of rock and roll i feel like adam sandler was inspired by the who in that song i feel like that i hear adam sandler in that song i feel like every song he

[75:01]does on on the the wedding singer is right out of that rob and i did watch billy madison in her hotel room too there are some scenes in that that you forget like there's a whole lot of scenes in that that you forget like there's a whole lot of scenes in that that you forget like there's a whole lot of scenes in that that you forget like there's a whole lot like a three minute time where he's just dancing on the stairs and i was like i have seen this movie a hundred times i do not recall the scene is not that funny and it is going on and on and on we don't have time to do another discussion about how rob doesn't think adam sandler is funny adam is not listening we can't do it i know i do think it's funny it's major influence on me i will say that when we heard the song was named getting in tune uh aaron turned to his alexa and

[75:33]said uh order me granny from looney tunes fleshlight i was like this doesn't it's a fleshlight that looks like the granny from looney tunes how many fleshlight jokes you got tonight rob is there a granny in looney tunes i don't recall well i was trying to think okay here can i just tell you my thought process for that joke i was like if there's a fleshlight that aaron's gonna fuck of somebody from the looney tunes who can i say to have it be the funniest and i was like tweety bird it's too small that's not funny like that seems wrong right so then i was like

[76:04]well sylvester the cat and i was like it kind of brings up pepe lepew vibes i'm trying to stay away from that don't want to get canceled so i was like oh the granny okay wait i got it again ready can i let me try this again so you get so now we know what rob's thinking about when we're talking on this podcast getting in tune aaron just stood up and asked his alexa to order him a yosemite sam fleshlight what that's the one you'd want to fuck up what's about the i don't get the tune part

[76:32]oh tune like getting in oh you're being filthy as shit oh my god oh you're really stop okay oh you're being really dirty tonight i get it going mobile this this was my least favorite song i i found something redeeming in almost everything and enjoyed them all this was the only one that wasn't for me no this song i love this song i've always

[77:00]loved this song we got a beep beep this is like a beatles thing what was come on baby drive my car yeah i do think it's one thing i thought a lot about this song is that it's a little bit more a lot of listening to this album is it's interesting that i i always thought of the who is like a stadium rock band right and like i think they i think i think a lot of their uh what am i trying to say the people who inherited from that flashlight again aren't you i think i think uh now we associate them with garage rock what i'm trying to say is like they

[77:30]do this same thing that bowie did where they do a lot of a hook of acoustic guitar with an electric band and that can only work in a studio right like there's no way you can figure out a stadium possibility for hooking up the acoustic guitar to be loud enough so it's interesting to me that some of the of their music was actually you know really studio based when i think of them as like playing at wembley you know for a hundred thousand people or whatever in my mind this album dips down the lowest at like my wife right and then it starts to get stronger and stronger so we got

[78:01]going mobile which everybody agrees is a great song and then we have a classic behind blue eyes yeah famously parodied by me earlier no one knows lyrics are fantastic on this aren't they and the voice i mean everything the guitar like that real build in the song it's providing british sarcasm and you know you know what this song is about and by the way russell is drinking in irish eyes that he put uh blue querico in so that is the drink oh hold on

[78:31]hold on hold on rob just i got to give you guys a warning if i do swallow anything evil put your finger down my throat and if i shiver please give me a blanket keep me warm let me wear your coat because i'm where i'm having a drink tonight and it's something that's a little bit out there so i've got a i got a boy can i share my drink with you guys yeah we're so busy we're so busy let me look at the schedule yes of course so during all my keith boone research we haven't even talked about like this guy was like the ultimate partier right like he was way out

[79:00]there and i read at one point he took a rhino tranquilizer and passed out during a concert because he took a rhino could be urban legend wait a minute yeah where did he get a rhino tranquilizer and why do they have one just for rhinos like is that a rampant problem somewhere i don't know maybe it is man rhinos are bad as hell maybe it also works for hippos but it just sounds better to be a rhino tranquilizer i like what aaron's holding up he's got all these ivory statues that he got from the dark web that's my favorite so in honor of in a gorilla hand ashtray in honor of keith moon

[79:31]passing out to a rhino tranquilizer i'm having a drink tonight called a pink rhino a pink rhino have you guys ever had one before i have not a pink rhino man what's in the pink what's in the pink no this sounds like it's a euphemism honestly all right i'm gonna show it it looks pink right i got the pink rhino it was very pretty all right it's pretty pretty red i would say well i may have overdone one of the ingredients all right here's what's in a pink rhino first you gotta start with some london dry gin i got gin in the pink rhino this is what i may have overdone

[80:02]grenadine syrup it's a little sweeter than i thought that grenadine russell's got the world's largest cherry like grenadine bottle at home it's like half full everybody's like where'd you put all that grenadine he's like oh a lot of drinks lately get that grenadine a pink rhino also calls for lime juice oh i didn't think you're coming here's an interesting one grapefruit soda okay well okay so we know pink salt pink salt oh himalayan salt okay and finally aaron you'll appreciate this one ice cubes go on the drink ice cubes to finish it

[80:34]on ice cubes in there yeah you gotta have some ice cubes that sounds all right that definitely sounds all right i was one of those i can hear today was a good day i didn't even have to use my ak there's ice cubes in the drink i knew there was no i didn't have grapefruit soda best around got a triple double i had i had the gin that was a good one i overdid the grenadine no i didn't have the grapefruit soda so i went and got a grapefruit i'm thinking i'm good right yeah you should be fine okay i get home i got no lime juice i'm out

[81:03]of a lime so i didn't have grapefruit soda i got no lime juice i'm out of a lime so i didn't have grapefruit soda i got no lime juice i'm out of a lime so i didn't have grapefruit soda i got no lime juice i only had grapefruit and i didn't have any lime so i decided to pour in some sprite zero which is lime soda to make up for not having the soda or the lime brilliant am i right you triangulated that yes yes that was awesome made my own ice cubes so aaron was fantastic and then i had a sandwich with bread it was so good it's delicious you gotta have bread if you're gonna have a sandwich i was in a house with walls

[81:36]miss slippy's car is green that kid comes in goes god the walls in this house are small you suck god that kid's back accurately putting me down once again uh the file won't get fooled again oh listen to those drums i don't know about you guys i want to watch csi miami now real bad

[82:06]i like i'm aware of the csi miami shows and i never really put two and two together but if you look there's like five csi shows that all use songs from the who who does who does csi that's not dick wolf that's not my favorite one of my favorite named guys of all time call me dick mr wolf is my dad name does does does the fact that these are so commercialized impact whether you like the album more or less because you like even if you don't watch csi you hear that sound

[82:32]you hear that i'm like during football right i don't know i hear this song and then i'm like every day at work like meet the new boss same as the old boss not like them that meet the new boss same as the old boss is absolutely one of the best lyrics i've ever heard in my life it's so perfect i don't know who i don't know which guy wrote it it's 100 on point i think of that one almost every day okay just i'm just just listen to this shit again and tell me this should be at 77 just listen this is everything that is rock and roll

[83:06]so and the thing is you're right i heard that song one million times on the oldie station and i was like i don't want to hear this song anymore but it's like just listening to the sheer amount of music that song would be a top song on so many albums that we've done it's just so good and matt mentioned matt mentioned it right at the top too when you hear the scream and the drum the drum

[83:30]right there leading into the end that's a fantastic way to end an album right like that's about as good of a bookend as you can get it's just so good and i'm just like i'm just like i'm just like i'm just it's a killer starting with bob o'reilly and ending with that i mean there's a rock opera i would want to go see i'm gonna you know what i'm gonna say i'm gonna bring it back i think this i think that was a banger yes yes i think that was a banger banged it's a total also i think that when we do the beck did a better musical it should actually be a beck to a better rock opera now that we've listened through and been talking about the who like it's got to be affected a better rock opera can we have a scene can we have a scene where we're all the four of us are riding in like

[84:06]we're gonna go get some donuts somewhere and we're like singing along to one of these songs like this can we do that yes that would be such a good idea that'd be an original and very good i'll sing my song to the wide open spaces i'll sing my heart out to the infinite sea i'll sing my to the sky high mountains here we meet aaron likes feet all right all

[84:36]right fuck yosemite sam flash light i don't know rob hold on roll on rob rob put put your mute on for a second okay rosie clearly rob you know he's he's by himself this week and we clearly know what his search history is is we we know where he's going with this right yeah he's got flesh we just have we have to give him a little bit of a pass just right he's looking he's his wife's gone he's

[85:02]trying to figure it out we know what he's what he's searching for just let it go okay we're not gonna call it out we're not gonna call it out i agree with you man yeah okay all right rob rob come on back okay sorry i was just putting something in the microwave for just a little bit to heat it up a little bit i wanted to heat up to about 98.7 degrees uh we don't talk about what it is but it's uh it's pretty great let's get into the rating system what tarnation everybody's the show the patent and very popular beck did it better rating system

[85:36]tell you what once again i was listening to this on the edit it's the most boring segment i was like i started i get my phone out every time so i'm just gonna speed it up here guys this is 77 of the top 500 albums this is number 77 the classic uh by the who all right so if we think that this belongs this should be at double sevens okay this is right where it should be i mean think about

[86:00]you're in a building right and of course you start at the top uh and we're going down in this case actually the podcast we started at one and we're going up but in this case the one is the penthouse it's kind of the best and now we're going up and as it as we go up it gets worse it's kind of a reverse the raid situation which was a great movie if we think this is perfect for the 77th floor we get up there okay we open up the door oh my god i love the view up here it's so down there but up but yeah we are coming from the roof uh this would be a rolling well toned

[86:32]it belongs here perfectly it's great it's right within our budget and look at you know space for a family to grow and get kitchen appliances uh or if you're aaron get a piece to fix the kitchen appliance yeah could you hey what are you doing up there fixing the kitchen appliance just buy a new one you cheap fuck it's like replace it the kid is back no i'll throw that shit in landfill aaron who cares i still buy diapers and throw them away we don't know where nobody's in diapers over here i'm just using them we had a compostable diaper service oh

[87:00]okay i'm not we're not getting into your diaper situation uh if you think it should have been worse than 77 this was a rolling groan you did not like this album or is it a rolling bone this should have been way higher guys okay this is after all the who like this is one of the best bands of all time russell what do you think rolling well toned rolling bone or rolling groan i love the synthesizers i love the guitars i loved all the music on it i thought the singing was fantastic i really enjoyed the lyrics i went through and

[87:31]read a lot of the lyrics and when i was listening you could hear what's going on you can understand the songs love the lyrics i love the lyrics i love the lyrics i love the lyrics i love the lyrics and for me keith moon was fantastic i see why people put him as one of the greatest drummers of all time i really enjoyed the album to me it's rolling boned it should be higher on the list all right matt what do you think rolling bone rolling well toned or rolling groan well first i'd like to say did a great job of shortening that uh description there you know again i always i always struggle with this and because we've got different genres and

[88:06]i think from a rock and roll album you know this is probably better than steely dan's asia it's probably better than um i had a couple other here patty smith's horses is probably better than some of the radiohead stuff even though i don't like to admit it all that much the clash london calling it to you know so i absolutely think this got rolling boned this should be a lot higher than it is uh aaron what do you think rolling well toned rolling groan or rolling bone

[88:34]you know i think it's probably better than steely dan's asia it's probably better than steely dan's rolling well tone means rolling bone means it should have been up there already and rolling groan means you don't like so aaron what do you think i mean i'm with i'm with matt where it's hard to rank you know i know that's what we're here to do it's hard to rank the albums uh but i it's what we got to do uh you know this
