The Rolling Stones: Sticky Fingers (1971)

[00:00]In 2020, four friends decided to listen to every one of the greatest 500 albums as decided by Rolling Stone magazine. This resulted in a text chain that celebrated the music, excoriated the order, and led us to making this podcast. We are far from experts. We promise to do almost no research. All opinions are our own unless you disagree. I disagree. I disagree. Beck did it better. We are up to album 104. Matt, your opinion is mine. And from 1971, this is Sticky Fingers by the Rolling Stones. I cannot believe I got through that. That was very impressive by me to ignore you totally. I'm weeks out of practice. We haven't seen each other for like three, four weeks. Rob's weeks out of practice of ignoring those three co-hosts. His foot came off the bag. I kept my glove on it. Just got to pat myself on the back. Great job by me. I did that move in college. I thought you just said when you get weeks out of practice, you just got to have a bunch of Gatorades and it'll come right back. Yeah. And pineapple for some reason? Is that weird? All right. Listen. Guys. Today, we are doing Sticky Fingers by the Rolling Stones.

[01:01]I mean, Sticky Fingers? What is this album written by Groot? What? Groot. I have no idea who that is. He's with a bunch of losers. He's the tree, Russell. So you, of course, have Sticky Fingers. He's got fingers made of sticks. Listen, at home, they're laughing at that one like crazy. Okay. I'm looking at four, three blank faces for looking at my own. If I look at my own face, there is very blank. Very bad. All right. So let's get right into the intros. Now that I've. Insulted the audience. By the way, Russell, did you like the description for the best of back line where I was talking about how great our audience was? Did you read that at all? What? We did a best of? Oh, my God. You write those and I wrote one and you didn't even read it? I think I did read it, but that was probably about a month ago. I don't know if I recall it. Oh, no. I'm like an English teacher at school. It's like, did you guys all read the lottery? Did you? Oof. Is that Shirley Jackson? Yeah. You know it. That's no fun. Sorry, Shirley Jackson. She dies in the end. That's the mashup you didn't know you needed to hear.

[02:03]Here we go. Here's a song. Oh, yeah. Welcome to K-Rob. K-R-O-B. Listen, I just got word off the street that Aaron is a whore. Oh, boy. Keep on the house and all the pains that go with it. So if you see him at Home Depot trying to figure out how a sink works or why his washing machine is leaking. Then be sure to flash him your feet so he feels better. Oh, yeah. Aaron bought a house. Yeah, the deal is sealed. How many problems have been concealed? He's painting the hallway late into the night. He can't call the landlord to fix the broken skylight. Nope. Can't do it. Aaron's a homeowner. Nice callback. It makes him feel real good. Yeah. This is true. Dude. He's a homeowner.

[03:00]I'm not sure that he should now. This song is actually a way higher key and slower than you remember. It's tough. This is not. Your podcast is not at .75 speed. Bedroom's too cold, but the kitchen's too hot. He touches the switch, it gives him electrical shock. Driveway needs to be resurfaced each fall. Hope you know how to patch holes in the drywall. Yes. Aaron, Aaron. Homeowner! This wall is starting to crack, yeah. Ooh! Homeowner! We tell that property tax, yeah. Oof. Don't. Too painful. Too real. Too real, right? Too soon. Too soon. Aaron, one day, like 22 years from now, you'll be almost paid off. You guys decide to move and you'll sell that house and be like, oh my gosh, look at all the equity I have in my home. Yeah. Or before. That's right. Your house will be worth $0.0. You might just fall off the ledge, right?

[04:04]One or two more quakes and you'll be at the bottom of the ocean. There's an earthquake and Aaron grabs his go-bag and his wife is like, all that's in here are condoms. What is this? What kind of go-bag is this? You gotta be prepared. You do have to be safe in a post-apocalyptic world, right? It's true. You don't know. Yeah. Yeah. The last thing you want to get is chlamydia if you're like Mad Max out there driving around. It's not like Walgreens are going to still be operating. It's not like Walgreens are going to still be operating to go get that taking care of in the zombie apocalypse, right? It's the part of Waterworld you didn't see where the mariner gets a gentle herpes. Yeah. All right. Yeah. They never got into that part of The Walking Dead, did they? I don't know if you guys ever watched The Walking Dead, but there was no, they didn't really get into sexually transmitted diseases, did it? They should have. It's like, oh, these zombies and these crabs, you know? I don't know which one's going to kill me first. Yeah. Should we get hired on this show? We should be hired for The Walking Dead. Our extensive knowledge of STDs that goes back to high school, high school health class.

[05:03]None of us were promiscuous enough to actually get some. Whoa, Russell's raising his hand. Okay, I'm going to ignore him though. Listen, I've got three guys here who think the cover of this Sticky Fingers album is actually normal and not that impressive. They're not impressed by the chef's knife on the cover. Just average. Just average. Just looks like a regular. I've got Matt in Minneapolis who's just telling us why he tastes so good. Matt, how are you doing? Oh, geez. You know, doing great, Rob. Glad to be back with you guys. Probably the Pineapple 2 then, right? Oh, no. What? Pineapple 2? There's a new pineapple out there? God, I'd love to have that. I've got Russell here who thinks the name should be called Stinky Fingers. Russell, how are you doing? Guys, recording this podcast has caused me to suffer a dull, aching pain. Now we're recording on another Friday night. It's giving the dumb shit listeners more of the same. Seriously, I should have been more on that Canterbury racetrack wild horse so it could drag me away. Oh. Damn it. I didn't make that connection.

[06:00]I could have done a wild horses song about Russell betting and ignoring his date. Shit. By the way, next to the word Stinky Fingers, I wrote a devastating nickname. I mean, if you gave that nickname to somebody in high school, that would ruin their life, right? If everybody started calling you Stinky Fingers, you'd have to just transfer schools to a different state. I mean, there has to be probably like a, at some point in life where you would take some sort of pride in it, right? It probably doesn't last too long, but. Hey, Stinky Fingers, give me a high five. You rule, is a word, is a sentence that would never happen. You can really give me a high two or three. Oh, yeah. I don't know. Yeah, let's just do elbows, maybe. And then we have Aaron, who hates that this album is about fingers, not about toes. However, before we got on, Aaron was telling us he was just down in Mexico and he heard a lot of people there have prosthetics on their feet. I mean, he heard so many people refer to each other as rubber toe. Roberto. Roberto. Oof, that was brutal. I've got Aaron again. Matt, can we get a ruling, rolling, rolling groan?

[07:02]Where's the prices right? Actually, that joke is great. Everybody loves it. Everybody's excited. I definitely didn't write that joke six weeks ago and I've been saving it for a special day and realizing it's actually quite bad. Aaron, how are you doing in California? You mentioned it's been a long time, bro. I'm sorry, guys. It's just that demon life. I forgot you in its way. Let's talk about Sticky Fingers. What a great song. We should just skip right to that one. Do you write? Yes. All right. Let's get into our voicemail. They're back. Too many, actually. Hey, boys. It's Krista. Just finished watching the best of. Oh, not watching. I'm going to call back. Oh. Oh, no. I accidentally downloaded the one where they screwed up and then played it on the show.

[08:01]Oh, you hate to see it. Certified. That is so dumb shit right there. You hate to. Oh, you're watching the podcast. Idiot. You don't watch the podcast. Have you guys ever screwed up on a voicemail like that? Left something and then. Not that bad. Holy cow. Or not. First time. No, no. I don't level. No, nothing. I don't spectacularly. I do think when I was dating somebody. And we were going through a rough patch. At one point, I sent an email and then I sent a second email that said, please don't read that first email, which, of course, is the biggest sign to be like, God damn, I got to read that first email. What's in there? You know, I thought you're going to say you called the wrong lady in order to burrito. You're like, oh, no, that's the other. I forget which one is the burrito one. I call the wrong one. That's the thing about calling a woman and asking for a burrito. It's never the wrong one ever. That's true. One out of a million chance. Hey, it's worth it. Okay, let's let's let's listen to the. When they called back and apparently wrote this down. Hey, boys, it's Krista.

[09:00]I just finished listening to the best of voicemails and text episode. And I'd like to say you're welcome for being a unofficial fifth member of the podcast. You're welcome. Anytime you want to send some more free swag my way. In addition to the T-shirt I have, that'd be great. My question. You don't have to tell all the listeners. We got your T-shirt. Russell. Oh, that's good. That better song is going to look good. For the last several months. We haven't really been hearing of you going into the dating corner. And I remember an episode where you said something about landing a bridesmaid or someone said something about that. And then it was kind of glazed over. And now you keep referring to a date as a down motor or a local or a silly. And my question for you is. Are you dating someone? And are they related to Rob?

[10:01]And why won't you tell us? Thanks. Bye. All right. Thank you so much, caller, for the two voicemails. Now, listen, I think the caller, first of all, the caller has the balls that none of us do. But second of all, I want to I want to just comment on this before we let Russell talk. Should we start up a store with Beck did a better stuff? Is there demand for Beck did a better merchandise? And if so, what merchandise are we going to put in that store? I'm thinking that Beck did it better. I think it's a can koozie. That has to be like the bottom level. I think it's a fanny pack. You guys all talked about how you love one love using fanny packs and how you love draping them over your shoulder. A crisscross style. I think it's a fanny pack. Of course, crisscross style. You could also wear it backwards. That's also crisscross style. A lot of people don't. It's going to make you want to jump jump. Flat bracelets. That's actually that's that's the perfect. That's the best one. Can you imagine somebody buys? Somebody buys a slap bracelet for like three bucks and then we're paying like three bucks for shipping and we're just losing tons of money on the whole thing.

[11:02]Like a stress ball. I'm just trying to think all that. You know, if you go to these conferences and Russell, you have you have your own. You give away a chat. You have a you have a swag bag that you give away with just a bunch of pointless, meaningless garbage. We did make the move. We did the logo Yeti cooler, the Yeti can cooler type things, which people really like those. They take. Yeah, those are nice. Nice. Yeah, but like the 13 cent stress ball and the no, no, no, no. See, I I think I think you're thinking too low class Rebecca better stuff. We need we need the Yeti, but it's going to be the Yeti Tumblr. Like we're going to have like everything on the store is going to be like seventy five dollars or above. We're not giving it to him. They got to pay. Yeah, they got to pay for it. We're going to set up a store where that's in there. Like I think I was to pay for you kidding me, man. I got a mortgage now. I got it. I need some help. Rob's got it. Rob's got a new computer to pay for. So well, to be fair, this is my dad's computer. And don't look into that. Don't look into any weird stuff going on.

[12:01]When you turn on your dad's computer, when you went to Google was the first that was the first search result. How to delete your search history. How embarrassing would that be? It just said being mirror balls. And I was like, this is weird. I don't know why. Why would we be searching for that? You'd almost rather see his his dirty search history than just have to think about what it could possibly consist of. Right. Absolutely. That is 1000% wrong. I do not want to see the search history. That did happen once when we were growing up is that we had, you know, the family computer that you'd share. And so I don't know. I was probably what? 17, 16, 17, 18. And you just, you know, when you're young and it's just like, you know, the world, it's just so complicated. And it's so hard how to figure out how to delete your Internet browsing history. Like, it's just not easy. You know, I'm canceling downloads like crazy. I've got everything on floppy disks. Like, so it's not, you know, and everything has a virus. My parents are like, why is this computer constantly full of viruses?

[13:01]I was like, I don't know. Because I'm waiting for that bottom half of that L McPherson shot. Just to see if it's there or not. I don't know. Yes. Big boobs JPEG. But I'm only seeing right now the neck. So I'm going to wait just a little bit. It's going to get down there. Meanwhile, I'm downloading the new Korn album on LimeWire. Wondering why I'm getting all these viruses. But one day my sister did come up and she goes, listen, she goes, I don't want to download the new Korn album on LimeWire. I don't want to download the new Korn album on LimeWire. I don't want to talk to you about this, but I have to know if it was you or dad who visited hotsex.com. Oh, no. And I was like, just for both of our sanities, I want to let you know that was me. You have to say, you have to jump on the grenade for that. You can't. Now, hey, hey, we're in the tree of trust here, right? Yeah, of course. You can tell, I mean, your sister doesn't listen or anything, so it's okay. Now you can tell us. Is it you or your dad? It was both of us. We were side by side. So it was pretty cool, actually. It was one of those bonding moments. Oh, I'm glad your sister doesn't listen to this podcast.

[14:02]Yeah. We were like, nice. Just high-fiving each other constantly. Going to the grave with you, Rob. Like half the laptop is on each of your legs. You're just kind of sitting there checking it out. No, this was before laptops, man. This was when you had like the monitor that you could set a picture on. Like you had the thick monitor. Like it went like 14 inches back on the desk. It was a giant, giant monitor. That was the thing. This is in downstairs. It was in the family room. There's no escape. You know, the only thing you could count on were the creaky steps. Yeah, those creaky steps were important. But back then, there was no video, no headphones. So it didn't really matter. You didn't have to do the one headphone move that you have to do now. Or so I've heard. I mean, that's what some people have said. Sick proofs. The one headphone move? Yeah, the one headphone move. Oh. Yeah. It's like you're a scout, an army scout, and you're always looking. You've got to build an excuse now, right? Like, hey, no, I'm not editing. I'm editing the podcast. You know, what did you say? I'm editing the podcast. Yeah, yeah, yeah. You've got a good excuse built in.

[15:00]So, Russell, what's going on? We dating somebody or what? What's going on here? Well, I have hung out with someone, and it's someone you could say is an Atlantis fan. Maybe I'll tell you guys later that I hung out with an Atlantis fan on my rolling going later on. So, yeah, you always want to go hang out with maybe it's a new person. Maybe it's not a new person, but sure. Yeah. That's a. That's a fair characterization. And then the question regarding a relationship to Rob, was that the second part? I was maybe going to edit that out, but yeah. Unfortunately. Oh, my God. Is it my mom? Russell, listen, I want you to know that if you are dating my mom and now you're my stepdad, I just want to let you know because I'm so mature that I've been so bad and I need to be punished immediately. Okay. And guess what? I'll choose the belt. Okay. How do you like them apples? You just that is that a shirt we should put in the store is a picture of Russ would be

[16:01]over his D saying I'm your I'm your stepdad now. Rob, do you have you have certain of your friends that you would prefer to date your mom? Like or like if you were to look over your your group of like 15 college buddies, do you have one or two that stand out and be like, well, I could probably handle that better than the other one? No. Well, I mean, what are you talking about? Absolutely not. No, no, it would be a joke. That was a joke before. I mean, Russell, if you were dating my mom, that would be I just would be every night. I couldn't sleep. I'd be up. I'd be like, what? What's going on? What if I was like super respectful and everything? Even worse. Gross. Don't say that. I wear two condoms. I mean, give me a break. I will say I've been thinking about the store, though, just to jump back again. You're thinking about the store. Yeah. I think we should make the Beck did a better shirt and then in very small text. So you can't see it online, but you can only see. When you buy it on the bottom, it says free breathalyzer blow here. Then there's an arrow pointing down.

[17:00]God, I want to do that so bad. They just get the shirt. They put it on. They're like, oh, man. Oh, I think that'd be so funny. Everything on the store is just a big swerve. No, it's it's just not even like I think our store should just be a question mark. You buy it. Then we just send you whatever we want. I would say somebody somebody on this podcast has experience opening up a store and getting T-shirts and stuff going because they may or may not have a family member that does this for a living. So we could probably living. Oh, wow. Yeah. We need to know a bit more about this. Are you telling me that Aaron's wife sells pornographic shirts online? No, but she's got horrible and dirty. Just dirty wordle words after all the time. She likes the dirty. She likes like a sailor grapes. I mean, you should see the links going on this world thread. Russell, I'm out. I do enough spelling during the work week. I don't need any more of that shit.

[18:00]Russell's big thing is he hates spelling. Listen, rolling on. Rosie, we haven't talked in about three weeks. How is it going with you now? First, Rosie, before you answer that, did you listen to the best of episode? No. God damn it. But my wife did. And I think my brother did. My dad probably did. But there we go. Yeah. But I'm sure you did a great job, Rob. It's not why I asked, but thank you. Yes, I did. It's Friday when we're recording, which means it's a Friday. It's always New Music Friday. We missed two New Music Fridays. We had Beyonce's release last week, which I've been listening to as much as possible. Today was the new. There it is. Every time. Boy, bye. Renaissance is great. I love it. I can't get enough of it. I love dance music now. I didn't know that, but now I do. I will say, actually, strangely enough, doing this podcast with you guys turned me into a Beyonce fan. You wouldn't have thought it would have taken that,

[19:01]but I needed the push to actually listen to her. Go ahead, Matt. Are you a good dancer? No. You like dance music, but are you a good dancer? I am an enthusiastic dancer, which I think is half the way it's doing good. I agree. Half the battle. Hey, that guy's having a good time. I will have fun dancing. He's actually got some moves, right? No, I wouldn't say that, but I will have fun dancing. That's actually a family trait of mine. Every time you're dancing and you're unsure of what you're doing, you just got to lean into it a little bit more. Another 15%. If you lean into it a little bit more, you're going to be fine. I actually think everyone on this podcast is a pretty decent dancer from what I've seen. My move when I'm dancing is I make aggressive eye contact with people. Aggressive. So they have to look at me. We're looking at each other. It's a connection. You know what I mean? They're watching me dance. We saw that, and somehow you had like, five 45-year-old women that were just staring right back. Like, I don't know.

[20:00]You only got two eyes, but you had five people staring right back at you last time. We were at the King's Corner or whatever. Yeah, they were going sticky fingers on me. I was like, ladies, my eyes are up here. Don't look at my jeans. But on the subject of making aggressive eye contact. So it's Friday. It's extraordinarily early, but this week was my son's first week of kindergarten. So he did great. I'm so proud of him. He had a great week of kindergarten. He's been. Oh, no. Dad, send me to school. Oh, no. How did you do this, Rob? You're killing me. Unbelievable. No, don't worry, son. I'll see you later. Just go to school and learn. And maybe if you really work hard, you can become upper middle management. You know what I mean? Like, you're an inspiration. Right. And he's been early. Halloween will no longer be for candy. It'll be for laying people off. He had to go to after. He had to go to after. He had to go to aftercare all week. And he did great with it. So today we were like, you know what, buddy? We're going to take you to the zoo. We're going to pick you up at 125. Wow.

[21:00]Head up to the zoo. Don't you got to work? Listen, Russell, just in case my boss is listening. I was working from the zoo. Okay. I was there responding to messages. So pick him up early. Aaron, is that a red ass monkey in the back of the zoo call behind you? I want to approve this message, but look at the size of this buffalo's dick. So get him up there. We got to get him some Dippin' Dots. We said no to the gift shop this time, but we got him some Dippin' Dots, went on some rides, and he's up there at the Oakland Zoo. There's a really nice playground up at the top. We saw the wolves out today, which is my favorite thing when the wolves are out. That's red. And there's this really nice playground. He was playing on the place. My son is five. Obviously, this is too early to show preference for playing with boys or girls or whatever, but he's playing with these couple of young girls about his age, and then they were playing on the playground, and then they finished. And we said, okay, we're going to go get you some Dippin' Dots, like say goodbye to your friends. And so these two girls are walking with their dad, and he's like, goodbye.

[22:01]And then he goes, what's your phone number? Which I don't even know. Aaron's just so excited. We've officially turned into the next version of CSI Miami or whatever it is right now. CSI Oakland Playgrounds. I got it all set up. The girl's dad was with them, and he was like, not having it. He was like, well, she doesn't have a phone. He goes, okay, what's your address? Yes. He's really working on it. Oh, yes, Rosie. I love it. I don't know, man. And the girl was like, she asked her dad, like, Dad, what's our phone number? Like, she was ready to hang out any time, and I got to give him props for just putting it out there. And I mean, I don't know, man, maybe we all should have been a little more forward like that back in the day. Did the dads exchange numbers for like a play date, or would that have been too strange?

[23:00]It turned out that they live actually in Dublin, California, which was like, it's like 40 minutes away. Pretty nice excuse. Had they been in Oakland, we would have exchanged for sure. No, had they been Oakland folks, we would have definitely for sure. But I got to give them props, man. Just going for it. What's up, Matt? Kind of sounds like Dubb at five years old doesn't have any problem with commitment, unlike some people we've got on this podcast. I got to have this thing out. I don't like how it just makes me anxious, and it just ends like that. That's perfect. That's so good. Yeah, if he needs any advice, you can tell him to come on the show sometime. We're happy to give him advice. We'll do it. I do think it's good, though, that he wasn't like, hey, Dad, I'm going to do what you taught me. And then he's like, which number window is yours? That was pretty good. Are you second to the left? That was pretty good. You don't want to throw pebbles at the wrong window. The second floor or the third? Yeah, the third floor. Yeah, you got to get the number if there's a third floor on this thing.

[24:01]Aaron, are you concerned that he's going to kindergarten and asking every kid for their phone number and address or not? He probably is. I mean, he's a very gregarious guy. He's really good at making friends, so he just might be. And he knows his own address, so he's excited about that and wants to share. He loves dates. He's a very good guy. I got a question. Kids. Kids usually, like, mimic their parents, right? They'll eat, like, whatever they want. So is it you or Rosie's wife at Gmail.com that's yelling at people for their phone numbers? It's definitely her, man. She's out there just all day long at the zoo. Yeah! Aaron's like, oh, God, this turns beyond. You asked for their number. I love it so much. So I just ruined that with that cool statement with your wife at the end. The other thing is, I think asking for someone's number might be out of date. I don't even know if you do that anymore. I think you probably are using some sort of social media, right?

[25:00]Is your son going to be ostracized because they're going to be like, hey, why don't you go back to the 1990s kid or something like that? They'll be like, call me on my landline. And they'll be like, well, look me up on TikTok. And like, I don't know how that's going to work. The phone number is like an extreme last step now, isn't it, Russell? I mean, aren't you getting in their Instagram messages first and then messaging? And then if you're lucky, you could go to a Google voice number and then you get their real number. I don't know how to operate any of that stuff, right? But the point is, I'm like an old dude with white hair. If Aaron's son is using the same pickup lines as I am, that's not a good sign. I really thought I was good at phones. And I saw somebody like a teenager sitting in front of me on a plane and they were doing Instagram. And it was literally like watching the Matrix when they're dodging everything all at once, they were going so fast, I was like, I'm giving a shocked face to everybody. I was like, and I realized I am old as shit. I cannot do anything that they were doing on their phone. They were moving. It was crazy. I was like, yeah, no wonder they post so much stuff. It takes them a fraction of the time.

[26:00]I'm like looking around and like touch typing is pathetic. Yeah, they probably don't even listen to podcasts anymore. These youths. No, I think they actually do. I think they think it's really cool to hear what a bunch of 42 year old guys are having trouble with. I can't talk to a girl. And we're all like fucking psyched about it. We're like, yeah, Matt, rolling going, how's it going with you? Matt, rolling going, how's it going with you? Matt, rolling going, how's it going with you? Good. You talked about having some troubles. And, you know, Sarah, since we've talked, Sarah did kind of a pray love thing where she spent about a week in Europe by herself. And so did a little soul searching. You guys don't have an original thought in my brain, so I thought I better Google or, like, look up on social media some, you know, some stuff. How can I be better? Or how can I have improvement?

[27:00]Introduce some ways to communicate with Sarah a little better. Are you doing steroids now? So she did come home, though. She did come home. Great. Okay, good start. Good start. Yep. Yeah. So I got some tips from the Internet, and I thought maybe I'd ask you guys your thoughts. You're going to the advice corner. It sounds like I'm going to go to the advice. Get to the corner. Russell's advice corner. Are you ahead of time now, Russell? This is like Russell's in the future. Damn. He knows what we're going to say. The first thing I found was that this person suggested that you when you're shaving, I'll just leave it at shaving. You leave all the hair in the sink so that she knows that you're grooming for her and that you're trying to look better. I like it. Yeah, that's really nice. Yeah, it's only a good one. Can I? Add to that the other day, I have a feeling that my wife does not care about me anymore because I recently was shaving. I cut myself, put a big thing of toilet paper on the cut, talk to her for about

[28:02]ten minutes and then left the house, and two hours later, I realized the toilet paper was still on my face as I was walking down the streets of Manhattan. So I looked like a crazy person. She did not help me out at all. Can I actually interrupt? Matt's really going on. I'd like to do this to tell a different story about shaving, about one of our listeners. Yeah, one of our listeners who you all know pretty well, he's going to turn into a Manscaper ad. Aaron. Yeah. Well, so it's one of our listeners who's a freaking caller who's not my brother. I will bring this listener up later in the podcast because he loves this album, and I do want to shout him out for loving this album, but I lived with him for a brief period of time during some tumultuous times in my life, and he's sort of a strawberry blonde type of person. And it was right at the time when Daniel Craig became James Bond. And there's that famous shot of Daniel Craig coming out of the water, looking great, and this friend of mine decided that he thought that perhaps in an effort to look more like Daniel Craig, he should shave his chest.

[29:00]And he then did, in fact, leave all of the clippings in the sink at the house that I was living in, and I'd move on. You got to get out of there. And so I don't know if it was a message to anyone or not, but there was definitely a lot of, like, red chest hair in the same particular. It's always nice. Is it true that you put all those in a plastic bag? You drew a face on it and kissed it every night before you went to bed? Oh, I still have them. Yeah. I mean, they're under my pillow. No doubt. It made the move. That's guys for you, though. They're like, damn, that Daniel Craig looks good. Well, better shave my chest, then I'll look like that. It might look just like that. What do you think is going to happen? Guys are dumb as shit. I'm sorry to interrupt, Matt. Go for it. That's all right. It said, if you're in a heated argument, this is the next tip I got. You're in a heated argument, it really helps tell your wife to just calm down. There's a chemical reaction in their brain that just shuts off and lets them know that it's time to calm down. So they recommend just yelling, calm down.

[30:02]Can I also say, relax works really well. The Aaron Rodgers, relax. We can't listen. We cannot start talking about Aaron Rodgers on this podcast. I have spent too much time thinking about Aaron Rodgers for the last week. I can't do it. Go ahead, Matt. But you got to really emphasize, like, it's two words almost relaxed, right? It's like, relax. You got to really emphasize it, don't you? But then he did say, if that doesn't work, if that one chemically doesn't work for them, just say you sound exactly like your mother right now. And then that one will. I have broken that out. And actually, she loves it because we all love Bernie. We think she's great. Bernie. Yeah. Everybody's happy when I say I like Bernie. Aaron, do you like Bernie? Love Bernie. Yeah. Rob, do you like Bernie? Oh, she's the best. Russell, have you met Bernie? Do you like Bernie? She's still downloading. Why? She's downloading it. She's all right with me. I don't like it when you say it like that. Good.

[31:00]If your wife is, like, laying down, taking a nap, just be nice. Just let them take their nap. Make sure you give them a little nudge and say, when do you plan on getting your chores done today while they're laying down? I like, honestly, just the idea of calling them chores. I think that's very funny. Also, I wish that all of our listeners could see Matt's face right now because that really brings the whole thing home. It's true happiness. I think the more you make your life sound like your little house on the prairie, that's very good. It's like churn the butter and bring the water in and fight the mountain lion that's out there. Last tip. I mean, there's a lot of them, right? But the last one I got is that every once in a while, it helps to bring up the name of your ex girlfriends. Around them. Because then they know that you have options and that they need to fight for you just a little bit harder. Can you imagine? You have to do that. It's a must.

[32:00]You have to say, well, I did go to this place before with someone and we had a great time and everything. And now they have to have a good time with you or else it's on them, right? Russell, this is brilliant. Imagine places you visited with ex girlfriends still existing. Like, that's how long I've been married. I don't think anything I did with ex girlfriend. Is still around. Did you guys, when you were maybe dating more frequently, did you ever bring two different girls to the same spot within a couple of weeks? Because you were like, oh, this is a good first date spot or anything. Russell, I never dated anybody within the span of two weeks. Like, that's crazy. I would tell them about that. I'd be like, oh, damn, I'm blowing up right now. This is great. I was just here two weeks ago. I do remember once going on a date and I don't remember the restaurant. The bar or whatever. And then, like, a week later, I was like, oh, that was a cool first date spot. And then I went on a different first date with someone else. And then I was terrified that the bartender or waitress or waiter was going to, like, recognize me and then act like me and this other person have been there before.

[33:05]When they had nice, it was just going to be a complete shit show, sir. You won't be figuring anybody in the bathroom this time. We need an extra towel at the seating, sir. Yeah, as you did the last time. Sir, remember, last time during the date, you went in and started crying in the bathroom. Will that be happening again? Would you mind not going into the handicaps all this time? Is this another sticky fingers evening or no? We just need to know for a clean up crew. Sir, last time during the date, you went into the bathroom and then we went in. The sink was full of hair and I prefer that not happen again. It's like the date is going so well. I need to get ready. So good. So you guys think those a lot. I mean, on board 100%. Yeah, that seems like a good strategy. It's like a good starting point. Have you tried any of them yet, Matt? Yeah. No, I'm kind of working up to it. So I thought I'd ask you guys first to see your reaction.

[34:02]Has she talked to you since she came home or not? Yeah. Have you seen her? She I don't know. I think most importantly, she getting her choice. I'm still babysitting the kids, so I don't know. We'll see. Classic. I got to say, though, man, off the record, I got to say her tattoo is dope. It is a dope tattoo. Yeah, it's pretty good record. You've got to say, though, of all the countries you could visit. If your wife comes back and goes, listen, I learned this great German sex tip. You'd be like, yes, I'm into this. I want to see what's going to happen. The Germans. Yeah, just takes you. All right, rolling going. How's it going with you? Rolling going. Things are going good. I mentioned this earlier, but a few weeks ago, one of my favorite albums, one of the best albums we've talked about so far, Alanis, Jagged Little Pill. I went and saw Alanis live in concert at the XL Energy Center in St. Paul. Oh, yes, messages. Did you think of this song when she played the other song, Russell? But they're not so great.

[35:01]At what point in the show did she play this one? Does she close with it? Does she play in the middle? Does she play it at all? Did she mention the podcast? She did not mention the podcast. Strange. That's strange. But I have to say a great concert and everything. But before I went out, we were in St. Paul, we were going to the concert and we went out and got some food beforehand. And you can see all these people were coming, kind of congregating around downtown St. Paul for this concert. And I've never seen more people in my life wearing flannel shirts tied around their waist. And I got to say, I think it's a trend that needs to come back. I think it's a great look. What do you guys think? It's a great look with the Duck Martins. Yes. As a fat guy, being able to put something around your waist and over your butt, great move. Plus, it's a layer you can put on. It's a layer as the double shirt fat guy move. I think it's great. Yeah, absolutely. I think the double layer thing is over. We don't use it enough anymore, right? Like the sweater over your shoulder.

[36:02]It's kind of a thing tied up front. We got a beat on that right here. I love that. Wait, where's that one? We've got that somewhere. Sorry. Keep going. But anyway, so I was admiring all the people wearing the flannel shirts. It was a great look. Thank you. Is that too long? No, never too long. Okay, go ahead. But anyway, so I'm going to the Xcel Energy Center. And then I got this on the ticket. It said you could make reservations to be in the club level, the Lodge, if you will, at Xcel Energy Center, where they advertise craft cocktails and tapas menu, like all these food and drinks and everything. So I'm like, heck, yeah, I'll make a reservation for that. So I did kind of like the VIP type thing where you didn't have to pay for it. You just had to make a reservation to get in. Before the concert, right? Wow. So we go up and we're sitting there and all of a sudden this tapas menu essentially just consists of like wings, cheese bread and like a steak sandwich.

[37:00]And I was kind of disappointed. Like if someone's going to perfect menu, don't eat it. Don't eat it. That is bullshit. I mean, tapas and then it's what cheese bread. That's not a steak sandwich and wings. I mean, that seems like all you need. Yeah. Wings are not tapas. I can tell you right now. Wings are not. Tapas. The people next to us definitely got like a big cheese bread thing. And I was like, well, this is not really what was advertised. But even so. And so we're sitting at this bar up in the lodge or in the club level before the concert starts. And the person I'm with, the Atlantis fan, no shirt tied around the waist, but still a great time to be at the Atlantis concert. I thought I was going somewhere else. But she orders a Prosecco, like a little glass of sparkling wine or whatever you want to call it. Yeah. Prosecco is Russell. We're not animals. Sparkling wine is 100% accurate. Hey, you think Matt knows what it is, Rob? Absolutely. Matt, what colors of Spain or one of those or something like that, right?

[38:01]Oh, he just dunked on you, Russell. I can't even take it. It's coming from the guy who can't open a bottle of wine is my understanding. He can open sparkling wine. He just pushes the cork and it flies out. So anyways, we're sitting at this bar up in the club level and the waitress immediately says, well, it's cheaper by the bottle. And I'm like, okay, whatever. And then immediately, like, no, no, no, no. I'm like, I can see where the date's going already. I'm like, immediately say, we're not drinking a whole bottle of Prosecco. We don't need the whole bottle. So she's like, okay, whatever. That's just like a Tuesday dinner. That's not even hard. On a Tuesday. It is if you sit there for 45 minutes before the concert and you're not drinking it, Aaron. If it's just one person in the group drinking it, then it might be a bit much. Okay. I'm still questioning the choices, but go for it. So anyways, eventually I say we don't need the whole bottle, but the person opens it and they pour the person I'm with the Atlantis fan glass of it.

[39:00]And then they say, actually, we can only sell this by the bottle. So I got roped into paying like 70 bucks for a bottle of Prosecco at the Xcel Energy Center. Then you share it. Then you become bottle of Prosecco guy. No, we all know the easy, easy way of getting by this. I was going to say, you use the American Express. Just cancel that shit. It's a soft scan, my dude. What do you guys think about that? That's kind of a bait and switch, right? If they pour you a glass and they say, oh, actually, we can only sell it by the bottle. And then you're paying like 70 bucks for something that would cost you eight bucks in the store. What do you think of that? Oh, yeah. And they know that you're on a date so that you cannot be like, oh, no, excuse me. I didn't agree to. But you just got to sit there and take it, Russell, because it's the sending the drinks back thing, right? You just got to sit there and eat the cost because you don't want to look like a fool. Yeah. If I'm going to look like a fool on a date, it's because I'm going to sit there. I'm going to stare at that fucking service charge for 20 minutes and wonder,

[40:03]do I have to tip or not? And then when I don't feel it cheap. Well, Russell, I do think a bait and switch is better than most of your dates. The way they end, where you switch off the light and then you bait. Then I think that's don't make me say it out loud. No, I don't get it. So anyways, go to Alanis. And I took Matt's advice on seats. Matt said one time that some of the best seats you can get at a concert are in the lower level, kind of on the side of the stage, as close as you can get to the stage down on the side. Is that right, Matt? That's it. That's it. So I took Matt's advice, Alanis tickets on the side of the stage and everything. Wow. Fantastic concert. And two of the greatest songs ever. You ought to know an ironic hearing. Those songs live and watching everyone sing along with it. It's really hard to beat that. So I was curious, what are some of the favorite songs you guys have ever heard live in concert? One that you had to sing along with? What one comes?

[41:01]Rob, you spent all this time coming up with new new sound bites, and this one stayed. I will never delete this one ever. We should say that was a hurdle the other day, and I got like 19,000 texts from a bunch of Becker heads. Tell Rob to do the hurdle. Tell Rob to do the hurdle. He's got to do that. Oh, I wonder what song it is. Didn't even get it right away. So sad. Yeah, that's not actually the beginning of the song that I play. There's a whole explanation part where the guy starts. Well, here, I'll just play it for you right now, and then we'll get back to Russell's question. But if you listen to this song, right, there's a whole part where he explains what the song is going to be about. It'd be like if Mick Jagger started a song being like, listen, the song that's coming up just to let you know I'm going to talk about how my love is a bitch. He's this. Listen to this. Yo, listen up. Here's the story about a little guy that lives in the blue world. I mean, guys, nobody ever heard that before hand.

[42:00]Nobody knew that was no nobody. I had no idea what it was inside and outside. Russell, I will say I'm going to put it in again. I've talked about it before. They might be Giants played a version of Fingertips, which is like 25 songs, like short intros to songs just played back to back to back. I saw them do it live. A medley. Yes, but it's like the song is a medley. It's just fake little chunks of song. You're hearing it right now under my voice. It was crazy to watch them play it live. I was blown away by it. I was pumped up. I was fired up. They're playing like Fingertips. And I'm like, yeah, then they start a new song. I mean, it was just unbelievable. How about Matt Aaron? Do you guys remember any songs you've heard at concerts where you just like the whole crowd got into it and everyone was singing along? Yeah, well, I mean, there's a ton of them. A lot of them are Pearl Jam. Anytime in hiding, it's played by Pearl Jam and it's just awesome. Specifically, I remember going to Guns and Roses when they came back around and joined back again.

[43:05]This had to be like 2016, 2017. And they're at your favorite stadium, US Bank Stadium, to hear a concert. Luckily, I was front row. The first section because I went solo. Matt Woodbury ditched out on me. And so I went solo just to hear November Rain. So I heard November Rain live by and so that was enough for me hearing. I went to Smashing Pumpkins a couple of years ago and they finally got back together. Three of the four members and they played like 33 songs. I'm hearing like Hummer and Cherub Rock in 1979 and all these ones by the Smashing Pumpkins. But I never really thought I'd hear like the band playing again. That kind of a thing was just awesome. So those two or three cut the vibe. I think covers are really fun. So when you get to hear a band do a cover and you understand who they listen to and who they love.

[44:01]One that sticks out for me is my I've seen a couple of like really great corporate concerts because of my lady's job. And so I've seen I saw Stevie Wonder. I've seen Christina Aguilera, but I saw Pink and Pink did. What's going on by Four Nine Blondes? And Pink talked about how she loved Linda Perry, who wrote the song and was close with her. And so when you hear an artist do a song that they love and do it in their own way, and it's a song that's also so wonderfully sing alongable. I mean, that was a great moment to me. The Pink is great. The Pink is great. There you go. One more. Somehow Snoop Dogg came to the Twin Cities and was playing at the Caboose. Have you guys ever seen the show at the Caboose? I have seen the show at the Caboose, but I have not seen a real act. Snoop Dogg, Warren G was there. Oh, my God. All this stuff. So I saw I was like five people deep from the stage. Snoop Dogg's up there. I was with Tim from Richfield, Tom from Richfield, and Kurt from St.

[45:03]Olaf. You were hanging out with a bunch of guys from Richfield. That's so weird. Weird. I know. But we went and saw Snoop Dogg and seeing Snoop Dogg five people deep at the Caboose doing gin and juice was pretty. That's incredible. That's. Oh, my God. Oh, that'd be. Did you yell out? I like the Gord's version. I like the Gord's better. That's a better version. The Gord's. I did have one more question, an experience of the concert. I was going to share with you guys and get your feedback, get some concert etiquette. I know you guys will have some good feedback here. I was curious. So I'm sitting in the section on the side, and everyone in front of us in our section is seated. There's a number of people behind us that are standing the people on the other side. The other section over are all standing. But everyone in front of us is seated. At what point are you allowed to? I know you can just say, hey, you're at the concert, you do whatever you want, you stand. But how do you judge when you should stand or when you shouldn't? When the people behind you are sitting, I got to stay sitting.

[46:01]If the people behind me are sitting, it's all I can think about. If I stand up, you got to stand. If you're feeling good, maybe try to slide over if you're trying to be courteous. But I don't know, man, if you're feeling the spirit, you got to stand up. Matt, I'm with Rosie. I mean, you got to try to be a little courteous, right? But at the same time, if you're sitting, what does that tell on the band, man? How are they going to bring that? Are they going to turn that amp from ten to eleven? There you go. The crowd is all sitting. Yeah, but are you really going to stand up for, like, hand in my pocket? Like, you're going to stand up and go, yeah, she's playing harmonica. Yeah. But I mean, that's like every one of her songs, right? I mean, to be honest with you, it's just that kind of band. It's just that kind of show, right? But there's. There's some people that are so moved by Alanis Morissette. They're going to stand the whole show. So, Russell, did you stand up? And then when your day didn't stand up, you started yelling, like, really loud. Stand up. We've done for these seats. I paid for the top of stand up. No, but we may have had the opposite happen at a basketball game the week later.

[47:01]But we can cover that a different way. She yelled at you for not standing up. Come on, Russell. We don't need to get into this. Russell's just getting yelled at. He's like, I can't stand up now. I have a huge. What I like is when you yell at me like this, I thought it was. How's it going with you? That was a good joke. You're going to hear that when you're running back. I didn't know if basketball stadiums had boner cams anymore. Russell. Oh, he's on the border. Cam. If they were playing the Aces, I could see it, but I don't know. Oh, God, that'd be the boner. Can be like this camera that was scanning around at waist level the whole time. Then all of a sudden it would just stop and like people would start cheering. Yeah, exactly. It would be a real. They'd be looking for a sticky fingers type situation. Like, it's just zoom in. And then when they see that huge hog in those Jesus. So when people at the games be like fluffing it up to try to get onto the cam, like when you're like, if the kiss cam comes on and all of a sudden Aaron moves

[48:00]in and kind of just sitting closer to his wife opening, get on it. Would there be fluffing to try to get onto the boner camera? Just like when you go through security at the airport and you're going through that big thing where they're taking pictures of you. You got to throw it around a little bit. You cannot embarrass yourself. You got to get the blood flowing. Definitely boner cams on you. You got to react. Russell true. It would be bad, though, if you were like, yes, this is full. And the border cam just moved past you. I didn't make the boner cam. It's like if you're on the dance cam or whatever, and you're dancing and it just goes like people aren't here for you, right? It shifts on you and you make eye contact with the camera and it shifts off. And everybody's like, oh, God, he's not a good dancer, but he likes it. Would they show Rob? Would they show who the person was on the boner camera or would they just show the crotch region or did they show the It's just the crotch region. Everybody has to kind of look around and be like, who's wearing those black jeans? Who is that? Is that me? They've got their flannel tied around their waist. Who's got their flannel tied around their waist? You see Russell showed up to games.

[49:00]He's wearing mesh shorts. What? He's trying too hard. He's lowered left at the concert in mesh shorts. Come on, Russell. I know that move. Is that guy eating tapas cheese bread right now? That's what's giving him a big boner. He's eating cheese bread. Rob, Roland going, how's it going with you? I love tapas. Yes, sir. We could all see that. Listen, so my wife got picked up by my mom at the airport today, was driving up, called me and said, I put the phone on the roof of the car. It fell off. What do I do? I saw some social media posts about this. I was hoping we would discuss. Well, the worst part is, I said, 50% off. 50% off. Yeah. I said, 50 bucks for anybody who goes to Highway five and picks up this phone. And on the thing, it says iPhone six. And everybody's like, fuck you. We're not doing shit to get an iPhone six, you cheap motherfucker. Just get a new phone. Jesus Christ. So listen, what do you do when your wife does something that dumb?

[50:01]Okay, let me give you a couple of options. Do you number one, you just get mad and you're just mad the rest of the day because you have just lost $1,000 due to her putting a phone on a car and then not noticing. How do you go anywhere and not check your phone every five minutes? I don't get it. She was in Maple Grove before she knew her phone was on the roof. Maple Grove. She drove across the Twin Cities. Not really. That's pretty far. Yeah, that's pretty far. So I could just be mad, right? Do I make jokes about it until she gets mad and then I say I'm mad. So it's like her getting mad and then me getting mad back. But at least I have an excuse for it, right? Like, every time I get in the car, I put my phone up there and I go, oh, I don't want to do this. It's called a Jenny. Do I repeat? Repeatedly ask her. Actually, this is the one I kind of went with. Do I repeatedly ask her if she backed up her phone so all the stuff is saved, knowing full well she has never backed up a phone and never will and just gets mad at me when I say that? Or do I number four, act like it's no big deal, but save it in my mind anytime I want to spend money and she gets mad at me about it and I can bring it up later.

[51:04]Three, I think we need just a little quick break in. I think we need to have everybody who has no idea how to back up their phone and when you just said, have you backed up your phone, they went and checked to see if they've backed up her phone. There's got to be at least a couple dozen Becker hands that have no idea what you're talking about. That's a good point. Good point. Motherfuckers, if you don't have Google Photos backing up your photos automatically, you're an idiot. Like, that's the only thing on your phone you need. Jenny's concerned about, like, text. I'm like, who's going back to look at old text? Nobody. So, listen, instead, what I realized is. You'd be concerned, too, if you're sending those types of texts, right? There's a reason people are concerned. Trust me, she's not concerned. She has no reason to be concerned with her phone whatsoever. Is that an app, Rob? What? Is Google Photos an app? Is that an app? Oh, I don't have to. Listen, I showed my mom this, okay? I'll show it to you later, man. Yes, it's an app. Anyway, listen. Instead, when I turned on my dad's computer, I found something that made me think, okay?

[52:01]And it's something called, I think my wife might be fin-doming me. Have you guys ever heard of fin-doming? What is that? Is that like dominatrixes in Finland? Now you're thinking. It is a portmanteau. Penguins who are dominatrix? Oh, man. Now Matt's getting my kinks. Matt's getting closer. He's getting closer. Penguins? Russ is eating a fish sandwich wearing his mesh shorts at the game. Tapas. Don't make a tartar sauce joke. All right, so here's the thing. Is that I'm pretty sure, I'm pretty sure that she is fin-doming me, which is financial dominating. It's when a woman. Guys get off by being financially dominated by a woman. Okay? You guys haven't seen this yet. It shouldn't be a surprise to anyone who listens to this podcast, but let's hear the details. If you go on Twitter and type in hashtag fin-dom, hashtag cashmaster, or hashtag sugar baby, and I did this, okay?

[53:01]You can go on, and there's just women online who are saying, which one of you sick fucks wants to buy me lunch today? Here's my Venmo. And then guys send them money, and they get turned on. They get turned on by having women spend their money. It's like their fetish. That would be a bummer of a fetish, wouldn't it? Like, I always talk about how feet would be so easy. Like, you just go to the beach or work in a shoe shop or whatever. But a fin-dom, I mean, just giving away money, and that's what gets you on the boner cam. It just sounds like my online dating life. It's like, I'll pay a bunch to go to this restaurant if you'll spend another night with me, right? So I think that she might just be going for me. I think she might be smashing her phone just to fin-dom me. She knows it's what I... Maybe she's seen if that's my kink is what it is. Guys, do you think you would want to be fin-dommed? Is that something you... Like, if you had enough money, would that turn you on to just have a woman spend all your money? Like, you just give her your bank account and just know that she's going to spend that shit? I'm confused. I thought this was going the other way, where it was like she was the one making all the money

[54:00]and dominating you with her financial prowess. That's right. I thought that was going in that direction as well. I got completely turned around. I would not want to be fin-dommed, but I will say that I do daydream about... taking a Vegas trip with you guys and just paying for the whole thing. That's my fin-dom fantasy. It's just being like, you know what, guys? We're all here. It's all on me. Whatever you want. Bet whatever you want. Drink whatever you want. Eat whatever you want. That's my fantasy. It's like taking friends out and just being like, it's all on me. I don't give a shit. That's my fin-dom fantasy. I'd wear my nicest pair of mesh shorts for that, Aaron. I'd just be so... I'd love that so much. Just be like, oh, Aaron's fin-domming us. I think my... I have a similar fin-dom. I like that air that turns me on. It would be... I like the idea of I'm going to get a suite at a Twins game and invite like 30 people to it. Just say, hey, I got the... Tickets are free. I'm fin-domming today at the Twins game. Come to the suite. It's right behind home plate. Free drinks. Free food. Like, what friend wouldn't love if they were the recipient of fin-domming like that?

[55:02]I love that, Russell. You're on the same page there. A true fin-dom, Russell, is the woman would go get the suite, invite all of her friends, and then you'd be watching at home. Like, the sick fuck that you are, watching her spend all your money. You've got to pay. Yes. Well, I'm going to have to end this early. I mean, I'm getting somewhat excited. Well, I can tell you who's been paying the pod bean hosting fees, and it's me. I think you guys are fin-domming me, and I love it. Let's talk about the album. Oh, hey, is this a music podcast? I'm paying the hosting fees, and Aaron's not even listening to the best of. It's the best of, Aaron. It's in the title. It's the best we got. Best of what? I do love how... We haven't done a recording in, like, a month, because Rob's gone on, like, three European vacations, and instead of anything about the European vacations, he's like, I was Googling today, and I came across fin-domming. Can I be honest with you guys? Yes. I've known about fin-domming for a long time, and I've been wondering about it so bad. I think about it a lot.

[56:00]Like, when my wife is like, oh, let's take a European vacation, I'm like, oh, yeah. Like, sorry, I spent it all on Subway for some lady. I bought a whole bunch of... Popeye's sandwiches for this lady on Twitter, so I can't afford... Buy me some... Maybe I should be a fin-dom. Maybe I should be... That sounds fun. Who wants to buy me Popeye's sandwiches, you sick fucks? I love it. Anyway. All right. Let's get into talking about Sticky Fingers. So this is the Rolling Stones. You want to guess which number album of theirs this is? Coming out in 71? You mean chronologically in their career? Yeah, 71. Like, 17 or 25? It's their 11th studio album. And this is the one... Studio album. 11th American studio album, 9th British studio album. So, right. Shit. I was hoping you wouldn't check. Before you wreck yourself. Russell didn't have time to do the list, but he's got time to do research and try to fin-dom me during the podcast.

[57:02]This was the research I did a month ago when we were still talking. I was kind of enjoying the month we took off where... I'm going to interrupt now. I got to say... There was part of me that was like, "Maybe I don't need to do the podcast anymore." When you take a month off, it's kind of easy to say, "Yeah, my life is pretty good without this." So this is their 11th American studio album. And this is the first full studio album with the guitarist Mick Taylor after Brian Jones died in the pool. And basically, this album is kind of cool because it's between Let It Bleed, which we've already done, and Exile on Main Street, which we've also let it done. Like this, this is the Rolling Stones, like, peak. Like, this is their apex right here. But Exile is before this, right? Exile is after. Exile is right after this. Oh, okay. Yes. And, yeah, Let It Bleed with Tumbling Dice is right before this one. So, like, and you can hear, I think, a little bit of Exile in a couple of these songs. Like, you can hear them kind of going classic gospel and trending that way. Yeah. But with these sessions, some of those songs actually came out on Exile on Main Street later.

[58:03]This album spent four weeks on the U.S. charts. And probably the coolest thing about this album is that... The cover that we've been talking about. If you have not looked up the cover with us talking about the Boner Cam already, make sure you do. No, the coolest thing about this album is that it fucking rocks. Go ahead. No, the cover is actually great because the cover is just a close-up of some guy in tight jeans, and he has a missile. He's got a hug. I mean, he is just swinging it like... It is... There's just a backstrap on that thing. I mean, it's like a four-point. It's like a Val Venis type, yeah. Hello, ladies. You know I was trolling for that. You knew I was trolling for that. Val Venis. What a great pro-wrestling idea, Rob. The porn star pro-wrestling. We haven't talked enough pro-wrestling on this podcast. No, we've not. Hello, ladies. And he would come out, and he had this... So he's wearing nothing but his wrestling trunks. And he's got a white towel wrapped around him, so it looks like he's wearing nothing under the towel as he comes out for the Boner Cam.

[59:00]Then he rips off the towel and, like, spins it around. It does, like, a gyration. Yes. Hello, ladies. The big Val Boski is here. In Cincinnati. Cincinnati. In Louisville. I am doing so much cocaine, I can't actually get an erection, but that is not part of the show. Okay, so I killed that one as well. But the actual vinyl, Russell, if you can find the actual vinyl of this album, it had a working zipper. Now, Russell, if you got this album and it has a working zipper, are you a zippy? I do have the album. I don't know if it has a working zipper, though. If you can get the original one, it has a working zipper. Because part of the problem was the zipper kept damaging the vinyl, so they had to unzip them all, so it was in the middle of the record, so it didn't damage anything anymore. Does the original version, is it like my version that came with a t-shirt that costs, like, eight bucks instead of, like, $72? I forgot Russell's going to have flashbacks, Rolling Stone flashbacks. Any Rolling Stone album is going to, yep.

[60:01]I was listening to this album and thinking, well, what albums have I heard live? And I was like, what songs have I heard live? Like, nope, nope, nope. Okay. He doesn't remember a single song that he heard at the Rolling Stone. Now, Russell, how many times have you, now, what did you pay for that t-shirt again? The one at the concert? Yeah, of course, the one at the concert. I think it was $130 for two. It was, yeah, $130 for two. I think it was, like, either $110 or $130. One was $60, one was $50. And the one that cost me extra, I was like, well, I should probably lose a little weight. Are they 100% cotton? It's a terrible shirt. I've never worn one. Oh, that's, oh, man. He looked at it. It's a Gildan shirt. He's like, oh, shit, this thing is so heavy. It's the heaviest shirt. Does that happen to you guys? You buy, like, a t-shirt, and immediately you're like, oh, fuck, I'm never going to wear this thing. I don't like it. No, if the t-shirt is not thin enough where I feel like my nipples could come out at any time, it's too thick of a t-shirt. I only want thin, thin, thin t-shirts from now on. I like the idea of Russell getting fin-domed at the concert, by the way.

[61:03]Oh, you want me to, can I buy this shirt for you? Yeah, buy that shirt for me. I'm never even going to wear it. Speaking of which, Russell, when's the last time you wore it? When's the last time you wore that shirt? I've never worn the shirt I bought. Not one time. Zero, zero, zero wears. Not one. Somebody out there is getting off, Russell. They love it. They think it's great. So this album cover actually was conceived by Warhol, and everybody thinks it's Mick Jagger on the cover, but it's not. They actually don't know who it is. They think it might be Warhol's boyfriend or a friend of Warhol's boyfriend. And this album also is the first use of the Rolling Stones tongue logo. It's the first time that you see that tongue. Any time. And it becomes kind of the Rolling Stones classic. So let's get into. Let's get into it. Can we skip the first track, though? I mean, can we just not? Well, they, I mean, they started skipping it. I mean, it's problematic, right? Do they play it live, Matt, or not? No, as of their last concert, 2021, they finally have stopped playing it.

[62:03]But they've played it every concert since 1970, since this came out. I mean, it's great. It's on guitar. It's a great song. And it just, like, awkwardly executed. Don't read the lyrics. If you don't, we're talking about. I mean, the lyrics is basically like, and he comes out and says, well, it's all about interracial sex. And the old power dynamics used to be there. And it's like, no, you obviously are a fucking idiot when you're writing your lyrics. And you're writing stuff where you, even back then, people had to be like, well, you can't be saying, like, how come you taste so good? Like, you can't be saying that. I do think Mick thought his part was in the right place, right? Like, he should, like. He shows up in Aretha's documentary. Like, he was there at the church when she recorded Amazing Grace. Like, I think he supported black artists and, like, legitimately probably thought this was, like, a good way to express those feelings. Like, same with Sweet Black Angel. And it's just, it's awkward. It's not right. Yeah. You make me think maybe Mick Jagger's not the smartest guy in the world.

[63:00]Like, maybe that's just. I know that's weird. Like, you see him doing, like, a math equation. He's like, hmm. But I think it's. It's in the beautiful mind calculation. Might be it. Next up, Sway. By the way, that song was the lead single off the album and was recorded at Down in Alabama at Muscle Shoals. Oh, nice. Okay, right. Next up, we have Sway. I put in the slide guitar here by Mick Taylor. I think this is one of my favorite second songs on an album ever. I thought this song was just absolutely fantastic. I know the first one's very controversial. It's interesting to listen to. But I thought this is a second song. It's a great way to start the album. I mean, it's great. I mean, listen to these lyrics. Did you ever wake up to find a day that broke your mind, destroyed your notion of circular time? Like, maybe Mick is a fucking genius like that. I love that stuff. It's so good. I do love the line. One of my favorite lines ever on any album we've heard is it's just the demon life that's got me in its sway. That is just badass, isn't it? It's true.

[64:00]It's as good as it gets for rock and roll. And I got to give a special shout out to Replacements Guy. He introduced me to this album and this song. He loves this song. He will go to the mat for it any day. I think it's a top 10 rock and roll song. Maybe a top 10 song of all time. It's fantastic. That song was the first one recorded at Stargraves, which was a English manor that Mick bought and set up a mobile recording studio in. Now, part of the problem was Keith Richards claimed he hated going to Stargraves. Stargreaves, excuse me. Stargreaves. He hated going there. And so he wouldn't show up for a lot of these recording sessions. And a lot of people think that that was actually because he was, oh, I don't know, addicted to heroin. That was part of the problem as well, baby. Why? He didn't want to go. Bad thing to be addicted to. But Led Zeppelin also recorded at this studio, Stargreaves. Elton John did. And you know who else did? Maybe a little band called The Who. Oh. Yeah! Won't Get Through It Again is recorded in the same studio as Sway. All right. So next up, this is one that reminds Russell about a wine tasting.

[65:02]It's Wild Horses. So this is released as single with Sway. Sway. Sway on the B-side. Are you serious? Like, can you imagine a better single than this with Sway on the B-side? Holy shit. The background to this song, I think, is so interesting. It's recorded down in Muscle Shoals, right? Some people think it was with Bram Parsons, which is, he keeps showing up in every single one of these albums. But this song is based on the fact that Mick's girlfriend at the time, and I've got her name here. Give me one second. Anyway. Mick's girlfriend at the time had an overdose on sleeping pills and was in a coma for six days. And she woke up and turned to Mick. Mick was there, and she turned to him and said, Wild Horses couldn't drag me away. And then Mick broke up with her the next day. As soon as she came out of the coma, Mick was out of there. He was like, see you later. This isn't working out.

[66:01]Turns out I'm not into girls in a coma, which Russell's like, huh? The only thing I could say to your comment there, Rosie, is you make a very good point. This is the B-side that we'll get to it later on. But Moonlight Mile was the B-side to Brown Sugar. So at the time, you know, from a B-side type thing. I don't know. No, you're right, Matt. I mean, this album, it has some fucking great hits on it. No, that's a great, great point. This album at 105, 104 is horseshit, right? Yeah. I mean, yeah, we're going to give away the end here. But like, how the hell is this the third Rolling Stones album we've heard? How is this? I mean, yeah. Honestly, if you told me this is a top 10 album, Russell, I think this could be a top 10 album. It is for me. It's probably one of the few albums we've heard recently where you could say you could easily jump this up 80, 90 spots on it and not get too much of an argument. Right now, it is true. The back half of this is not quite as strong, maybe as the first part. Back third, maybe.

[67:00]One thing I want, Aaron, you mentioned the replacements on the last one. It turns out Jim Dickinson on Wild Horses played the piano and he was also the producer for the album. Or the replacements. Did you know that? Oh, I did not know that. That's incredible. I did not know that at all. The other thing that was interesting, the other only thing that I read about this a month ago before we stopped talking for a month in that interim period where we weren't really friends, that Keith wrote that as a lullaby for his son. And then it started making me wonder, is a lullaby a nursery rhyme? Or is a lullaby the other one that is a fairy tale about elves? Hobgoblins, dragons, fairies, or other magical creatures? Is a lullaby a fairy tale or is it a nursery rhyme? A lullaby is a song. It's totally different, Russell. It's a song. It's probably more likely a nursery rhyme, right? Because it's probably more likely to be a song that rhymes. What's the one where the wind blows and the bough breaks and it will fall? Down will come. That's a lullaby, my dude. Not a fairy tale.

[68:00]And down will come Hobgoblin. And down will come Chunk. That song, by the way, reminds me of the first date I ever went on. This is even pre-Stick Out Your Tongue Girl. Like, this is an early, early date for me. Tell me about your first date. We went to see the movie Fear with Mark Wahlberg and Reese Witherspoon. This is an insane first date movie. What the hell? It was a huge mistake. And the Sundays played a version of Wild Horses in that famously. It was a disaster because we came out and she turned to me and said, wow, Mark Wahlberg. Mark Wahlberg is really hot. And I was like, wait a minute. This is a total. I was like, I. So I went home and shaved my chest and I was like, good. Now I look like Mark Wahlberg. Now we know where your obsession with cum gutters came from. There it is right there. It's true. Yeah, because he was. That even predates D'Angelo. Oh, what is that song he did? The Funky Bunch. He's such a good vibrator. Yes. Okay, wait, wait, wait.

[69:00]Let me edit that in. Come on. Aaron, you're right. That video definitely gave me some good vibrations. Gave me some body images. Yeah. I was in the mirror like, I could do this. I could eventually. Yeah. You see me at home humping my massage chair. Were there any embarrassing moments during that movie, Rob? Have you guys ever gone to a movie with someone that had an embarrassing moment? Like you're with your parents, you're with a date or something. And there's a sex scene or something that comes on and you have to just sit through it. I mean, I've had this discussion recently because, I mean, I still haven't seen Maverick, but I saw the original Top Gun in the theater in 1986 with my parents. Both of my parents in 1986. I was born in 1980. So do that math. Imagine why I can't see Kelly McGillis without turning bright red still to this day. Aaron reaches over to get some popcorn. His dad's like, no, no, no. I'm ever going to see you with a female friend from Richfield.

[70:02]Actually, we weren't dating or anything in college, but we went and saw American Pie together. We went and saw American Pie. You got to see the episode where he's, you know, you know, doing the stuff with the apple pie. And then it got really awkward because I had gotten a pie from Baker Square earlier and it was sitting on the seat next to me. And I was like, this is bad. Yeah. You know, that movie doesn't hold up. Right. Because all of a sudden they're like, they got a camera on that girl and they're watching her. You know, like, yeah, that movie does not hold up. They take Shannon Elizabeth with a fake accent and then film her changing and all the guys watch and just think it's OK. I just saw there was a scene. It was on CNN actually recently where the Stifler's mom had this, has been reporting to people that her sex life drastically improved in real life because she played the role of Stifler's mom. And she said she got laid with a lot of people that she probably would not have otherwise hooked up with because she played that role. Oh, I would. Jennifer Coolidge. I mean, she would put me on boner cam big time.

[71:01]1000%. Don't you think that's where the whole MILF obsession started? I think you can trace back. Like when I was looking at hotsex.com, it was like, yeah, you know, we're hanging out high fiving. But then after African-American pie, it's you're in MILF city all of a sudden. Now, I don't know what movie it was where they got stuck in a dryer, but I'm sure that's good. Mona. You could trace who's the boss directly to the dryer situation. All right. Next, we have. Can't you hear me knocking? Maybe the best song in the maybe the best. On the whole album. This intro is not going to argue. I mean, it's fucking rocks. And then the drums. It's so good. A lot of rock. Guess what we got on Oregon here. Aaron, Mississippi, you know, it's Billy Preston. Yes. I didn't even know that until you. Yeah. I mean, it's like you got to have. It's probably really Preston. Look at the first four songs on this.

[72:01]You could make a legit argument. I know the first one's problematic, but if anyone told you this is my favorite and this is my fourth favorite. You can't really argue with it, right? This is fantastic. These are all just fucking bangers. And listen to the quality of this recording. I mean, just wrong. Just sounds perfect. Crystal clear. In the chorus of that song, Mick Jagger, it's too high for him to sing. And so he said that he covered it up with a bunch of reverb and backup singers. And you can hear his voice definitely disappears in the chorus there. But then at the end, there's a two minute song. It's seven minutes on the album because they play a five minute jam. I've heard this on the radio so many times. And I think it's a great song. And I never knew it was the Rolling Stones. I mean, listen, this is the same song. I know we're going to talk jam bands next week with the Allman Brothers, but this got a little too jam bandy for me. This was where it was like, you've got this conga and saxophone. No such thing. For a long time. That's a long time. I'm with it, man. Yeah, it's like they were. Matt's talked about how he likes the jam band style.

[73:00]So I'm guessing Matt loved this part. Yep. They changed it up a little. When you have a song like that, that is like Santana. I mean, it sounds just like Santana. Santana, yes. Well, that's what they said. I mean, they said that's where it got from. Yeah. Yeah. I mean, you're just building and building and you just feel like, yeah, I mean, it just is so great. But Russell, you can't sit there and listen to it. You just have to have it on. And then when you hear that part, you're like, oh, yeah, this fucking rocks. But yeah, you can't listen to every note in a jam band. Or maybe like if it's the Allman Brothers, maybe just don't listen to the last two songs most of the time because it's actually seems to be a pretty long album. Quite long. And you fall asleep even if you're trying to stay awake and listen to it for a podcast. And your family doesn't want to hear Southern rock jams for the hour to everybody. You got to move. So now. I listen to this album a lot in headphones. And they put the acoustic in the left and the metal in the right.

[74:01]I can't remember which it is, but it did make me at a certain point, it made me wish for a mono mix of this album. Like, I really wanted to hear this album in mono. Sometimes in stereo is just like too much for me. I don't know. I mean, you can hear Exile Main Street coming out of this, right? Like, you can tell they got this song and they're like, dang, did you remember that song we played where it was really slow and it was American Southern music at right after we played Brown Sugar? That is a good song. We should do a whole album of that except record it in a crappy way and also take more heroin. I mean, that's kind of where we're going. We're going with this, right? I mean, even on Let It Bleed, though, they started playing some of those soft, really Southern, you know, almost acoustic sounding songs, right? I mean, they had the electric guitars in there, but that's the kind of the vibe they were going for. Now, the vibe the Rolling Stones are going for, I will say, is right after a gospel song, you followed it up with bitch. Listen to the horns here. This is a Motown song to me.

[75:04]I thought these horns were a little bit out of place for the album, personally. Really? As loud as they were. Yeah, just on this song. I don't know why. I think they were overpowering. You're right. I guess the horns are more Southern soul than Memphis because they're a little bit unruly. That's a good point. Guys, I cannot tell you. I loved it. I thought it was great, but it made me think because I read that that song wasn't played on the radio very much because the title of the song was bitch. Now, of course, Mick Jagger there claims that the bitch in that song referred to just kind of like how bad his own love was. Like he said, my love, it's a problem for me because he was singing about that breakup. He was like heartbroken over that breakup, which I want to remind you was him dumping a girl that just got out of a coma. But it made me think, are there any other songs that have bitch in the title? Oh, guys, this is the bitch list.

[76:01]We're going to hear songs that have bitch in the title. And see what the bitch is referring to. Oh, okay. I love this, Rob. I love a Rob list. And I want to remind you that I was looking for these songs in front of my whole family at the cabin. So this was fun. This was really fun to hear these songs over and over. The one that finally, so this is 71, right? They wouldn't play bitch on the radio until 74 when somebody named Elton John came out with a song called the bitch is back. Oh yeah. That's a bad Elton John is too good for us to do. He's come up in like, in like five albums. He's at one 10, I think, right? Yeah. We're on, we're on our white street here. He comes up in the Rolling Stones, Almond Brothers, whole television, Fiona Apple, Lou Reed, Joni Mitchell, Janet Jackson, and then Elton John. Wow. There's some horns in this one too. So Bernie, that the bitch in that song refers to Bernie Toppin's wife. When Elton John was in a bad mood would turn to Bernie and say, Oh, the bitch is back.

[77:03]So in the bitch is back. The song is actually referring to Elton himself. So Matt, you may or may not want to add that to your list of stuff from earlier. It's your choice. Okay. Let's edit it out. Put it on the list. I'm avoiding using it in that way. Aaron did this whole list. It was really hard on me. Actually. Next up, next up from my favorite Metallica album load. Oh, you know what the load album from Metallica is actually pretty good. A lot of people don't like it. I like the load album. The reload goes off the rails. It's the one that I didn't mind this when they came out with this song. I remember I had a friend who had a convertible and he'd drive around and play this song and it blew my mind that we could listen to a song about ain't my bitch. And it just, it just rocked so hard. James Hadfield claims that the bitch there refers to any problem you have.

[78:02]So in his world, if he's. If he's got, if he's got a problem, he just calls it a bitch and it's anything. So, I mean, you can imagine him in math, right? If he was a math teacher, like forget about, okay, we're going to do these 35 bitches. All right. So next up, ween, baby bitch. Guys, we haven't talked about ween ever. There might be a reason for that. I don't know anything about ween. There might be a reason. What? Is this one of Rob's like quirky, they might be Giants bands that he thinks are like really well known? What? No. Maybe. So this is a rough, rough listen. What the fuck are you guys talking about? Guys, first of all, I just want to tell you the singer of this band is named Gene Ween. So does that change your mind about how much you love the band? He's named Gene Ween. Yeah. He's called Gene Ween. And that one was actually about an ex-girlfriend who dumped him on his birthday. So that's not, that is not part of the list. It doesn't, doesn't count. Can we get a, can we get, you still have the soundbite about what the fuck's he talking

[79:00]about, Rob? Huh? Which one's that? Oh. Oh. What? What? Como es posible. This one? No, it was the left field take. It was the left field two. Yeah. Ween? Ween is not a left field take. Get out of here. You guys act like Ween is some like slobber bone or something. It's definitely not. All right. Next. It is my nickname for when I get on the boat or camp. My Ween made the camp today. Ween back. Ween back. Ween back. All right. Next up, we have Jet with their only number one hit in the U.S., Cold Hard Bitch. Oh, this song is so good. I forgot about Jet. Yeah. I think their CD was always front and center at Target. Oh, this is badass. This is a modern-day ACDC, my dude. Yeah, are they Australian? They might be.

[80:00]They might be. And if you listen to the lyrics, right? I was trying to figure out what the bitch in the song is referring to. He says, got to leave town, got another appointment, spent all my rent. Girl, you know I enjoyed it. The song is about fin-doming. He is singing a song about getting fin-domed, and he loved it. Guys, a coincidence? I don't think so. Everybody's talking about fin-dom these days. And finally, any song that is up for a Grammy in 1998 for best female rock performance, losing to Fiona Apple, criminal, and best rock song, losing to One Headlight by the Wallflowers, it's Meredith Brooks. Number 501. This is a great song. Fantastic song. I'm a bitch, I'm a mother, I'm a child, I'm a mother, I'm a sinner, I'm a saint, I'm a sinner, I'm a saint, I could not feel the same. This song is underrated. It's a twing. I mean, the hell if this is better than any computer.

[81:00]You know you wouldn't want it. I know. I know. I mean, it's a total Atlantis ripoff, but I don't care. It's still great. That song is where she was reclaiming the term bitch, and that's why it's okay for Rob to make a bitch list. Just when you think you've got me. I would say that was a top two bitch list. That's a great list. Definitely a top five list. We'll call it a top three. At least top three bitch lists. Absolutely enjoyed that one. I can't wait for Russell's edit emails. Take out entire list. I don't know. I don't know. I got the blues. They said they wanted to make this an Otis Redding stacks type sound. They nailed the sound. Yeah. I mean, I would love to hear Joe tax or somebody to cover this, but they nailed the sound. One of my favorite things about this album is like the tempo changes. Like you see some songs that are just crushing. They're super fast. Then you have these kind of more ballad or blues songs with wild horses. And this one, I just thought it was great. Appropriate amount of heart. Just listen to the voice.

[82:00]That approves. Listen to how clear the recording on this is. I mean, it's crystal clear for them to go from this and then have to get exiled in France and have to record at a studio in Nice somewhere and have the worst recorded album ever after this one is crazy. This one sounds so good. By the way, that song was about the breakup with Marianne Faithfull. That's her name. And again, that breakup was him dumping her after she was in a coma. All right. Speaking of being in a coma. Sister. Morphine. Song about a morphine addict on the brink of death. This feels like this lunch will go. I don't know a lot about Wilco. I don't. Maybe you guys know this artist. Matt might know it. I don't know if you guys ever watch the show Sons of Anarchy. They have a lot of music from this guy named the White Buffalo. Yeah. I heard the White Buffalo in this song. And if people like this type of music, go check out the White Buffalo. It's awesome. Southern rock. It's the Russell Scholl's influence.

[83:00]That. The White Buffalo song is one of the few songs I bought on Apple Music. And I have Go the Distance. You're hearing it right now in the background. Fantastic. Second to last, the penultimate song, Dead Flowers. Definitely about it. I'll be in my basement room with a needle and a spoon. I think dead flowers is a worse thing to give a woman on a date than fake flowers. What do you think? I think fake flowers is better than dead flowers. As we're fake over dead. Yeah. Unless you, unless you press them in a journal and then you said, here's a journal for you to write down all the wonderful things about our life together. Here's my journal with all my tears about all the times I didn't make it on the boner cam. And the one time I did. Yeah. You switched it, flipped to page 57. And the one time I did. You'll talk about my experience of being embarrassed on the boner cam. Don't want to be embarrassed on the boner cam. That song. That, that song was, it's, it's, it's, it's referred to as one of the few gothic country songs of all time. It was written.

[84:00]10 days after the Altamont Speedway tragedy where they hired the Hells Angels to be a security and they. Security guard. Yep. Yeah. That's out by Patterson Pass. It's not that far from me. They knew that concert was off the rails when Mick Jagger stepped off the helicopter and immediately got punched in the face by a fan. Like that's anytime you step off a helicopter and get punched, that's a bad start to a concert. It will happen at the Beck did a better live show when we all get off on our separate helicopters. We all take separate helicopters. Moonlight mile. And we know. Matt loves it. What a song I did. I never heard this song 2015 they were at TCF bank stadium and they, they usually bring back one or two old songs that they haven't played in a long time. Yeah, yeah, yeah. This is the song and they played it at most of their concerts in that round. Right. But like here, this song live is unbelievable after hearing like, you know, brown sugar and you know, can't get no satisfaction and they slow down and play that song. It's unbelievable song.

[85:00]Matt, what do you think you, you love the stones. You love construction. What do you think is that as a closer? I love that as a closer. What do you think? Great, great closing song. I mean, you want to talk about construction. Listen to this album. Side one opens with brown sugar closes with you got to move, right? The slow one. Second side opens with bitch closes with moonlight mile. I mean, that's, that's the Bruce Springsteen four corners. It's, it's, it's so, so good. Well, listen, we don't want to give away the end, but we better get into the rating system. What if the boner cam had a rating system? Russell rolling, not too long rating system. I mean, you could just say rolling bone. That's easier joke to make there, but are you guys still listening to me? We're doing another episode for this. You better not be zoning out already. All right, listen on this podcast. Let me see if I can remember this after three weeks. We have a rating system.

[86:00]This is album one Oh four, one Oh four, one Oh four, 104. We're up so high. We can't even think of Jersey numbers for it. Is this album at one Oh four, a rolling well-toned. It is perfect. That one Oh four rolling stone. You did the rolling stones. Well, perfect. They're right there. Okay. It's the perfect date. You go see fear with Mark, Mark Wahlberg. Definitely a baller move. Okay. Definitely not a disaster. When you look over and your date says this guy's attractive and, and you look like, what did I look like at that time? I was in a sweater vest. I was all right. Or is this else? It's this. And she's like, why are you wearing brown underwear? And I said, I'm not wearing any underwear pigmentation issue. I have, is this, is this a bone? Speaking of which gray underwear rolling bone on the boner cam. Is this a rolling boner cam where it should have been higher up? It got boner cam. It should have been way higher on.

[87:00]The list. We should have seen this before exile in main street. We should have seen this before. Let it bleed. This is a better album than the ones we have heard previously. That would be a rolling bone. Or is this a rolling groan? Okay. It should be lower on the list. This album was not that good. And if you pick this, you have real problems. Okay. What do you think? Aaron rolling, well-toned rolling bone or rolling, groan, rolling stone, sticky finger, 1970 one. I think I gave this one away already, but anyway, you measure it and measure it against other rock albums. We've heard other rolling stones. I'm we've heard. I just, it's crazy to me that this thing's at one Oh four. It's almost a perfect album. It's to me, it's the best rolling stones out. And we've heard it's better than a lot of other stuff. It is rolling boned. Yeah, I was going to say absolutely, but I'm not going to give away my answer, Matt. What do you think? Rolling ball, toned, rolling, boned or rolling groan? Well, I think it got rolling bone. I think it should be higher. Um, I think the,

[88:00]the Rolling Stones, Bob Dylan, the Beatles, kind of all of these seventies iconic rock groups that had all of these albums on the first two lists, let's call it, but call it the 2012 let's think there was 10 or 11 Rolling Stones albums on the top 500 list of all time in 2012, you know, which is probably too many, right? So I think some of these albums get a little bit, they're re slotted and maybe inappropriately, maybe appropriately. I don't know. I feel like this one could be way, way higher. I don't fault anybody for putting it at one Oh four, I guess. Um, just cause there's already two ahead of it. Things like that. If you're looking at it from that standpoint, but absolutely. This is one of the, one of my favorite albums by the Rolling Stones. I'm going to say it's rolling. Boned should be way higher. Russell. What do you think? Rolling? Well toned, rolling bone or rolling grown. And I want to remind you the album, the title is not stinky fingers. Oh, can I change my ranking? If it's not, no, I'm sorry. We all lock that in.

[89:00]We're locked in. Well, there goes my whole bit about the stinky fingers, but I loved all the songs. This album, I thought that the first four songs were, so I just, like I said earlier, I don't see how you could argue with any of them. And as you get through it, there's just all these kind of highs and lows in terms of tempo and sound and everything. I just love the whole story that the album tells. And, and honestly it, the album, it had me in its sway. So for me, it's rolling bone. It should be way higher on the list. If someone told me this was one of the greatest five albums of all time, I don't think, I would argue with them. And, and it's hard to say that we've heard too many of the albums like that in the last 30 or 40 guys, unfortunately, you're incorrect. I hate to say it again, 104 times in a row. You're you're correct about being incorrect. The thing is, this is a rolling stone. Number one, this is the best album. Okay. Yeah. Yeah. Did not have to use rhyme.com to look that one up. Just came up with it off the top of my head. Believe it or not, this is their best album. It sounds,

[90:00]it sounds good. The songs are bangers. You can see where they came from. You can see where they're going on this album. It sounds perfect. If you had an album on a desert Island and you pick this, I would be like, yeah, why not? It's got just the right amount of horns. As Matt says, many times, it is so good. Listen up next week. - Can I ask a quick, quick question quick before you go on Rob? - Of course, Russell. - How much do you guys think the cover of the album plays into it? Because the album cover is so iconic. Like that's part of an album. Don't you guys think like if the album cover is memorable and iconic, like if this were just a picture, like for the Rolling Stone guys on the cover, it might not have the same impact. What do you guys think? - 1000% Velvet underground and Nico with the banana, this album with the huge dong, the kid diving in the pool after the money, you know what you're getting with those album, with those, with those album art. It's right there. Like, I think that's a great point. - That's a great point. I mean, it's still a great album to me either way, but for as far as the mystique and the memorability, you're right.

[91:00]And I'm going to tell you what makes it great, right? I'm going to tell you right now, I'm going to, we're going to talk about this next week. Look up. Kiss comes alive. The album, worst album cover ever. It is an awful picture of kiss. You can barely see Peter Chris in the background. It's terrible. And that's why that album is not as good as sticky fingers. And that's what this podcast has been trying to decide this whole time. Are these albums as good as kiss comes alive? Listen next week. Okay. There's been some criticism on this list, Aaron, that we don't have enough. We don't have enough women artists. Okay. And let's ignore the list I did earlier. Next week. It's the worst one of all. It's the all man brothers. All man brothers with from Fillmore East or whatever. It's called. I can't, where did I put the song? Oh, here it is. You got it. I'll tell you. We do it just on. Maybe you'll want an album cover.

[92:01]So like those four or five that have boobs when they just be like one through five. Yeah. I got the perfect for you. Jack Beck did it better. What? No, dad, we're just doing the podcast. You don't have to sit by me. Seriously. So we don't need the live order cab right here. Mr. Bob's dad, you can move it along.
