When you say you're gonna go, you gotta go. I go, all
right. It's episode one two. That's one hundred and two episodes of the
play Pants Pod. Fuck play pants podcast. It's not a pants, it's
pants. I feel like you got caught up and you forgot how to count
in the middle of one o two there too as well. I know I'm
not good at this, and one hundred two episodes in. You think everyone's
got that figured out by now, Jason Ganti, rod Ryan. It is
episode one oh two of the Playpants Podcast, and I I fucked up the
beginning because I've been sitting on this question for many days now. I've been
sitting and just boiling in, freaking out about the question about to ask you
right here out of the gate, coming in hot and be good. It's
actually wonderful, and I really hope the answer is yes. I really do.
And you're gonna know why when I say it. So Young Rodney went
out to Las Vegas, went to the sphere. I saw a piece of
news come across, and there were some things that happened maybe when you were
there. Now you went to see you two in the sphere and there was
an article that came out over the weekend that Bono busted into a Harry Styles
song called Sign of the Times. He did like forty five seconds of it.
My question I am posing to you is, holy shit, was it
when you were there? Dude? I think I would have remembered that.
I had a couple of beers. I know you're hoping that that. I
would love to have been there. Oh my god, I really cannot tell
you that I remember that. I mean, I remember the show. I'm
pretty sure he did not do that at my show. Now. I didn't
go to the weekend show. I was there on a Wednesday night, Okay,
okay, So yeah, he's had some special guests on stage. I
think Lady Gaga went up there. I mean, no special guests when I
was there, But I was there last Wednesday. And the sphere is the
future. They need to drop these things everywhere, you know. I don't
know like what cities are going to be next. But the one thing I
learned about the Spirit's a publicly traded company, so there's going to be more
of them, and it's a billion dollars to build one. So probably Dubai
is getting the next one. I don't know where they're going to be,
but London, you know, you know, maybe big cities around the world.
It's awesome. It's there's nothing that's Nobody over sold it to me.
I talked to a few people that went to shows before I went, and
there was no let down at all. I was primed on how expensive everything
was going to be, The drinks are a lot, blah blah blah,
all that my tickets were ridiculous. The one thing that I did, I
bought my tickets late, so I had to go through a second tier like
a Vivid or a stub Hub something like that. And I'm honest about it.
I paid like eight fifty for the seats, and then it was three
hundred dollars tacked on as a service fee. That's what I paid. What
the hell is it service fee for? Like, is it cost three hundred
dollars to fucking swipe the card? It's a percentage of the ticket price.
They're not doing any more work, it's whatever that ticket price is. The
service fee goes up, which is even more criminal. So beyond that,
I mean, yeah, it's a million dollars to go Okay, So I
could have bought tickets on the floor for approximately the same price. I could
have bought one hundred level. There are four hundred. There are four levels,
one, two, three, and four hundred. I could have gotten
the one hundred level and then the four hundred level center And you know,
like most concerts, you've been going to concerts forever, you want to be
as close as you can to the band. Not this time. You know,
I've seen you two a bunch of times. It wasn't about getting close
to them, it was about taking in the sphere. So I elected to
go four hundred, which I feel like I made the right choice. Now.
Obviously, anyone else that's moving forward, if you can get in and
if you want to get two hundred or three hundred level, that would be
clutch. Gotch. But if you look at the videos that I posted that
stage, they're far away. It's big. It's a twenty thousand seat venue.
I didn't know it was that big. Really, yeah, oh yeah,
it's big. It's awesome. The graphics, I felt like they used
them properly. I didn't feel like they overdid it. I think a lot
of thought really went into it. But I also feel like this is just
the beginning. If you two is doing how like, if it looks as
awesome as it does, now, boy, what are they gonna be able
to do down the road? You know, they're just I mean, it's
the first one in the world. So it's cool because the video screens are
on the outside as well, you know, and it's got you know,
it's always imaging something. It looks like the moon. Sometimes it looks like
a big eyeball. You know, it's gonna be interesting to watch. And
I know you're not into it either, even though you're kind of a weirdo
car guy, but for some reason you don't watch car racing Formula one.
Right, the city was pretty fucked up. It's all cut up right now,
which they must be making so much money for them to fuck up Las
Vegas, okay on purpose, the walking experience, the driving experience, for
them to damage maybe somebody's first time ever going to Vegas. They must make
so much money on that Formula one because they really have that city cut up
and there's grand stands everywhere, and you can't just walk down the strip.
I like to do a lot of walking, so you got to cut you
got to keep going back and forth over and bath. See that blows.
I like to. I like to just cruise in the strip, up and
down, you know, as you're going from casino to casino, out on
the street and seeing the ship. Yeah. And for me, it's it's
not even about being so much in the casinos. It's just about being outside
and walking. It was really nice weather and everything, so I walked to
the Sphere because I wanted to see it during the day. It turns out
it's not that great to look at up close. It's better from far away.
It's like looking at it, it's like, oh shit, it's huge.
It's like putt your eyeball on a Christmas light. You're like, this
isn't that great? Yeah? Kind of kind of a little distance baby,
Yeah, but yeah, dude, it's awesome. It's the future. I
mean, it's got to be on everybody's bucket list. I know that you've
been to Red Rocks, so I checked that off my list. You know,
the Sphere I think is now added to the list. I don't know
where else you have that you want to see a show? Did you go?
Did you see anything at the Hollywood Bowl? I don't I ever have,
But that's like a legendary old school place to go to. For sure.
Like the Greek Theater out there as well would be a good one,
you know. Yeah, But the Hollywood Bowl is something that I would want
to go see a show someday in Los Angeles. I can't think of what
else. I mean, you know, it'd be awesome to go to see
something at Wimbley Stadium, but once you get in there, it's another stadium.
I'll say this, you know, seeing I've been to a couple of
shows at Madison Square Garden, it's not it's not special Madison Square Garden.
As a matter of fact. It's old. Okay, So it's older than
what your Smoothie King Center. It's older than the Toylet Center. There's nothing
really special about it other than a million things have happened there, right,
but there's no Madison Square Garden is in New York City, and it's so
dense and compact. When you're walking up on a football stadium or you're walking
up on Yankee Stadium, Okay, ooh, it's amazing, you know.
And same thing with the Astrodome, the super Dome. You can walk up
on it and you see it and it's like this amazing thing. Because New
York's is so dense you're just walking, it's like, oh, there it
is, you know, It's just it's amongst all these other buildings. So
I'm just saying, I don't think if anyone watching and listening feels they have
to put Madison Square Garden on your bucket list to see somebody. Yeah,
I mean, if if you're in town, it'll be worth it. But
you know what that's like, the third or fourth Madison Square Garden that's been
built. It's not even like an original one. They've torn it down and
built in a bunch of different times over the years. Too. You're going
there because it's so famous, that's all it is. It's like, it's
great. What was the sound like in the sphere? Because that is important
and that's hard to pull off live. You know, it's gotten better over
the years. But what I've read is the sound in the sphere is like
supposed to be great? Is it better? It is great. I had
heard when the sphere was first announced they were talking about like speakers. I
didn't feel like the sound was coming up from a floor or anything like that.
I did feel like it was coming from in front and around me.
So it did have a surround feel to it. Oh that's cool. I
did read something about, you know, like it was just gonna be revolutionary
and there was gonna be you know, under the seats and everything. I
didn't pick up on that, but it was very clear. It was unbelievably
clear. When you go to some of these shows and it gets a little
distorted. They got to you know, they got to kind of fill up
a stadium, they got to fill up. I mean the sound is great,
I mean it is. It's adjusted, and I think you do.
There's a difference when you go see a band that's doing a residency too,
because you know, from a mixing board boom, you've got all those shows
before yours to get it right. No one's touching that fucking board. Man.
It's like, no, we got it down. It's the fourth show.
We have it perfect. Nobody even look at the board, you know.
So the sound it's mixed and perfect, you know, yeah, yeah,
no, it's that's that you get that with the residency. You know,
you can't you know, you can mark the board and move it from
city to city, but every room is different. So when when you go
see a band that's set up and playing every night in the same spot.
I think that adds to like how great they sound. Well it's all brand
new stuff and everything like that, so I mean that's pretty cool. Now
the rumor is too and not to get back on the Harry styles thing,
but god, that would have been so cool if it had been pist pants.
I would I would have definitely remembered if they done that, Like I
I was feeling pretty good at the show. Yeah, yeah, I would
have remembered. So there's rumors that we've talked about this before, well who
goes next? Because because you two extended their dates out like after the first
of the year. I think it did like February. Maybe. Now the
big rumor is Harry. Harry might be the next guy. And then when
Bono did that, everyone, oh fuck, it's gonna be Harry. This
is a little teaser. Now that's not Is that the only reason that that's
the rumor? Because Bono did that, that that like kicked it into another
gear that that Harry. I don't know what Harry's people are called, his
fan club, you know, like Lady God guys got the monsters, and
it might be just it might just be me. I'm in all the fucking
Harry styles chat rooms. Yeah. Man, he's totally going to be playing
there, dude. He's like moderating, he's like making. He's got a
little pin machine he's sending out pins. By the way, the big room
now is that Harry apparently shaved his head. He wanted to look more like
us. Ha. Listen, all the cool dudes are doing it, Harry,
So we come on, Harry, Welcome to it. Brother. So
anyway, that's why I want to bring up that question. I'm like,
holy shit, because when I saw that, I went, oh my god,
I heard I read that fish was being talked about. But like I
said, with Red Rocks, when I went to go see my buddy,
because you were only there a short period of time, I never even got
over there to see it when you were there. I went to go see
my buddy Chris, who lived there, and I went during the summer.
Most people go visit their friends in Denver in the winter time because they want
to go skiing, skiing. I happen to go see him in the summer
and I said, oh, Red Rocks, I don't care who's playing,
We're going to go to I said, I'll buy the tickets for you.
And your wife. But if Justin Bieber's playing, we're going to see Justin
Bieber? I go, are you down with that? He goes, well,
let me look. And the night we went it was a Britt Floyd,
which was a Pink Floyd tribute band, which you know, that's cool.
I'm not the world's, nor are you the world's biggest Pink Floyd fan,
but they're kind of endorsed by Pink Floyd there, you know, like
this is the best thing next to us, and for all practical purposes,
it was. I saw Pink Floyd, you know, and it sounded and
it was amazing experience. It was like, you know, Red Rocks is
like going to church. Elon Musk said that the Sphere is a modern day
colisseum. I could see that. I could totally see that. It's it's
it's revolutionized the whole game. Now. I hope what they do because you
know, I mean, that's a that's a ticket price that most people,
you know, that's a that's a hefty price. Are they gonna put fish
in there and the ticket's gonna go down to like one hundred fifty bucks,
then I'm gonna go see fish? Okay? So I think the ticket prices
ranged between three and seven when they go on sale. Okay, A friend
of mine went to go and he just got tickets when they went on sale.
It's possible you can get tickets still when shows go on sale, but
all these U two shows sell out right away. So I think you got
in there for four hundred bucks kind of where I sat, I paid double.
Okay, that's not terrible, I mean it is. I mean it's
a pretty go and rate ticket for a decent band. If you want to
go see the Eagles on their tour right now, it's going to cost you
that. So I suppose. Yeah. I just got blown up this morning
by a listener who is just he was so mad that he was trying to
get Eagles tickets and they were I don't know, a thousand dollars or something
like that. Now, dude, go back in your memory. I feel
like the Eagles started that whole thing when when they first got back together,
held freezes over tour. I want to say that the ticket price was two
hundred dollars or something, and we had never heard of anything over like one
twenty five or one hundred year. I feel like the Eagles, I feel
like the Egle maybe one hundred dollars was like the most. And this is
going back not that long ago, I mean twenty twenty five years. Yeah,
maybe I feel like the Eagles are the ones that came in and just
said, fuck you, man to twenty five, you want to come see
us, man, you're never going to see us again. Liars, every
band lies. I in my memory blame it on the Eagles too. They
didn't just go up twenty bucks from everybody else. They went up one hundred
and twenty dollars from the highest ticket price. Yeah, because they knew they
were all my memory, that's what I remember, Yeah, because it was
so it was such a huge announcement that, oh my god, they said
they were never going to get back oh together, and it just blew up
and they went, okay, let's go make some sick money. And they
just went fuck it, and it was all the boomers were like, well,
all right, I guess that's what I'm gonna beout. They knew that
their audience was older and had mine, they had the money, so they
just and then the of course, now from that point it's just blown up
farther and farther. I mean you go buy a rock T shirt. What's
a T shirt costing nowadays? Fifty five bucks? Fifty bucks for a U
two T shirt just for a tea, fifty bucks, which you know,
you know, the double. I don't know what we were doing. You
know, it was like sixty dollars for a couple of drinks, you know,
like we were doing super I'm aic. I'm a big Gin and Tonic
guy. Now gentonic guy. Now okay, double gin and Tonic. I
think you know they were thirty bucks apiece. I think esus. But if
you go to a Saints game here in the super Dome, I think beers
are like twelve or thirteen bucks a shot. It's like, well, glad
I quit drinking. Holy shit, that was a lot. I'll tell you
what buzzfest. Long time ago, I remember getting two beers. They're the
big ones too, don't ask me the and I remember laying down twenty bucks
and her looking at me. Pass it over, choppers. You know,
blue, what you think this is? Dog? I can't get two beers
for under twenty dollars. A long time ago. That's been I don't know.
I mean, it's just you bitch, and you moan about it,
and one emailer said, Rod, we can just stop going to the shows.
It's a very simple You have a great point, but there's just somebody
there that's going to fill your seat. So do you really they got us
by that, They got us by the short and curlyes, these bands.
You know, I appreciate the stance. Well, I'm not going to shows.
I'm not spending that kind of money. Okay, that's cool. It's
like the people that got pissed off at the NFL a couple of years ago.
It's got the people that got pissed off at bud Light. Okay.
And if you held to you, if you held your ground and you didn't
watch the NFL anymore because somebody was kneeling or because of bud light, did
you did you really hold your or did you stop for a while and then
you went back? Yeah? Back. I tend to believe maybe the bud
Light thing, I think that really did piss off a lot of people.
But the people that said they were no longer going to watch the NFL because
people were kneeling during the National anthem, right, I would guess ninety eight
percent of those people came back to watch the NFL oh, absolutely they did.
The ratings are higher than they were two years ago. I promise there
are a few people that said that's it, I'm done with this sport.
And I think there are people. You know, it's like the same people
that when somebody wins an election, they're going to leave the country. Nobody
ever does A few people have you get mad, you get you know,
whatever, you go back to it the thing that I you know, I
was thinking of you know, your son was thinking of London. And I
know we brought this up before, but when I was a kid, when
you were a kid, you could work at your supermarket, I could work
at the restaurant, I could wash dishes, and I could save up enough
money and buy a ticket to go see my favorite band. Yep, you
could you Jason Guinty, his parents did not buy him a ticket to go
see Van Halen. He went around in the winter time and grabbed all the
shopping carts and brought them in from from at the grocery store. Rice mash
them up. Bro, you saved all your money and but you were able
to now go back to Harry Styles, somebody that you know we're talking about
when we're our age. You know when we were young, that's their favorite
guy. Tickets are four hundred bucks. Man. You can't you can't wash,
you can't have a dishwasher job and mow lawns. And you could mow
every lawn in your in your development, and you're not going to save up
enough money to go see Harry Styles. That's a huge difference right now from
when we grew up. Yeah, it makes it very very hard. It's
like, you know, and it's a shame because there's so many great bands
that are still rolling around, but they're they've they've priced themselves out of the
average person, you know what I mean. Even like I still go to
shows, and I would go to more, but I look at some of
the costs and I'm like, yeah, nah, not going to that one.
Holy shit, man, I'm just not you know. And people think,
well, you working mister program director, you programs from radio, say
you get all the free tickets. Ah, not like it used to be.
Man, it is not that game that much. I mean, sure
I'll get some here and there, but it's never for like the great bands.
It's always for like the sea level bands. Oh you want to go,
Nah, I don't. I don't want those tickets, man, you
know what I mean. It's one of those deals. So I feel the
pain for someone who's gonna want to go. Well, look, look,
Taylor Swift, yet fucking thousand dollars you want to go? And she sold
three nights out or three or four nights here at the super Dome next October,
sold out, And those tickets are so ridiculously priced. She sold three
nights. Are three nights at the Dome in New Orleans, three nights sold
out. Because it's a it's a great destination city city, really city,
you're a city your size was not getting three shows, but because people want
to make a weekend out of it and they want to go to New Orleans,
you know, you're lucky that you get that many. Now, this
city, Houston's huge. I think we got three shows here. That makes
sense because the population there. She did six shows in LA, right,
so fire things. Yeah, I's doing like a bunch of Toronto and stuff.
But I mean, you know, when you think about it, Okay,
so just from a New Orleans standpoint, you've got three shows Taylor Swift
in the super Dome. Okay, that's in October of next year, in
twenty twenty five that following winter we have the super Bowl. There's gonna be
more people here for Taylor Swift than a super Bowl. Yeah, there will.
You're you're absolutely right on that. What the hell, dude, Like,
it's insane what she is pulling off? And I don't know how she's
doing it, and I don't know how they had the balls and the brain's
obviously to figure out. Okay, wait a minute, Taylor Swift, let's
just put her in fucking stadiums and do like three four nights per city and
just change the economic makeup of that entire city for a week. Like,
how did they know that that was gonna happen? I wonder, though,
I mean, I don't think anything's bothering them. But right now, Metallica's
running around, right, and they just did some kind of show in Saint
Louis. You know, they had one hundred thousand people there. It's insane
because of the configuration of the stage. How Metallica plays in the round,
right, And I think most people, I mean, I know, we
talk about Taylor Swift and it's most of this audience, whatever audience we have,
you know, she plays and she kind of probably has the stage somewhere
around the fifteen maybe even the twenty yard line, right, that's where the
stage is, and then that whole back area is dead. You can't sell
those seats where Metallica playing in the round. Boom man, you can fill
that whole bowl up. You got people on the floor all the way around.
So when it came to Sofi Stadium, they have the record for the
most people. That's right. Why doesn't Taylor Swift at the most people.
She's got the most people over six nights by far, She's played to the
most people in that stadium by far. But when it comes to a single
night show or Metallica with their two nights, you know they can play to
more people, right, Taylor Swift? Does she need all of that shit
behind her? Can she? Can? You imagine them even trying to make
more money and like put her in the round and even pack in another twenty
thousand people for per show. She could. She could twenty thousand people per
show at one thousand dollars a seat. You do the math. That's what
she's missing out on. I mean, she's not missing out on much,
okay billion, but I'm just yeah, I'm just you know, get every
seat sold, man. I mean even at that point, you're like,
you know, it's like it sounds like if you could borrow their stage.
Right. It's like when people always say, well, you know, once
you're certain, you know you're wealthy or rich, you know, why do
you care about more money? Because you always want more of everything? I
mean, why wouldn't you want more money? You know, why put all
the effort in and not maximize everything, whether it's it's seven dollars or seven
million dollars, you maximize it, you know what I mean, like like
make it so economically makes a help out more sense. She's like giving bonus
when it was one hundred thousand dollars per bus driver and shit like everyone on
her crew, the semi driver, the semi truck drivers, Fuck yeah,
gave them a gave like one hundred grand. That's why people love that lady.
Damn, she's so fucking smart. And you know what I saw years
ago with my daughter and she was great, man. I mean I could
sha't my bag of tricks, but she's fucking great live. I mean,
if you somehow get your ass a ticket, I'm not even kidting go because
she's great. She's fucking great man. What uh, let's go back over
to the sphere really quick. You know, we all have our wish lists,
but it also has to be somewhat makes sense. You know. You
just can't go plucking stuff out of the air. But ac DC, Yeah,
Brian Johnson is seventy six years old. Now, yeah, that's a
tough one. They don't want to be out on the road, do they.
That's a beating. That's all they've done other lives, I know,
But seventy six a man, So that's what that's I'm just throwing it out
there. Residency, Yeah, they'd be great sphere or you know, anywhere
in Vegas really anywhere. But the sphere you know is I think ac DC
is globally, you know, I think they're big enough. Oh you could
do a couple of months run. They could do a couple of months,
for sure, you know, I think I think they are. I think
they could do a couple of months, and that would be so fucking cool.
Think about the shit they could do, well, the graphics with the
cannons and all the bells and the shit. That would be really really cool
to see how they pull that off. That would add a whole nother element
to an ac DC show, which is already great. And that's the that's
the thing you But the thing about ac DC, the things that you just
mentioned, the bell and the cannon and all of that, those are actual
props and a whole lot of rosy and that big inflatable it would all just
be on the screen. It's so minimal. There's not even there's not even
an amplifier on stage with you two. They're playing on this turntable and it's
just the four guys to say, and there's no props or anything. And
one of the things that's great about you two or that ACDC is the actual
they roll out real cannons. Is it gonna be as good with cannons on
the screen? I don't know. I mean, it's hard to say anything's
not great on that fucking spear screen. I just think the creativity that it
opens up would be cool. You know, you don't necessarily have to have
cannons on the screen, but you get smoke. You canna have fucking shit
flying around you. You get who knows man interpret the lyrics before before you
two comes on the stage, it looks like these huge brick It's like a
brick wall and then they start to crumble and it looks like the dust is
coming down and everything. It's it's so the visual, it's so real looking.
Let me ask you this crazy. Remember the old days of Disney World,
you had this one ride where you'd walk in and you'd stand there and
they had railings. You didn't sit down and you stood there. I forget
what the damn dumb ride was, but you said, and they put this
video on. It was over the ceiling. It's like a three six steep.
This is early days of this technology, dude. There was one in
Niagara Falls. It was called to Fly. Yeah, and like you'd be
called two fly and you were in you were in a sphere and the movie
was all around you and you thought you like you were flying over Niagara Falls.
Yeah, And what it does is though, but they would warn you,
like, hey, so, like did you at any time feel like
sick or vertigo or anything like that, because sometimes that could be a problem
in a big day like that. But what you're talking about, I got
sick as shit going to see the movie was called to Fly, right right,
But then I you know, but then I went to the one at
Disney where London and I were in the seats. Oh yes, and it
looked like that. It looked like my I felt like my feet I was
going to kick the top of the Eiffel Tower. Look, we're were going
to make it. Fucking We're not gonna make it. We're not gonna make
it. We're not gonna make it. We just made it over the Eiffel
Tower. You know, So you don't feel like that. There's no roller
coaster feel, at least in the four hundred levels with you know, with
a couple of sixty dollars, you know, gen and tonics in me.
I did not have that feeling at all. I get motion sickness. I
can't go out on a boat. I can't go deep sea fishing. I
can't do any of that shit. You're a little bit you can't do anything
fun. The hell didn't. I didn't feel like that at all. I
didn't. It is just it was just amazing. That was it. It
was just amazing because I know there's been times when I've been at Imax and
if shit gets wild in a movie scene, know like I gotta close my
eyes and be like, whoa fuck man, I can take a knee here?
What the hell's happening. Yeah, that's why I was like, oh
shit, I would have just found that money and sit there to be like
fucking losing my mind because I got motion sickness eight hundred dollars later and seventy
dollars drinks. I mean fucking sixty dollars high balls, and I'm like on
the floor crying. That would suck. Wasn't drinking high balls? Jackass?
Hey, give me a couple of Harvey Wallbangers, Hey, and Gin and
Tonics. Shit, can you get some Martini's over here? Bonnic guy?
Bro, that's good. It's delicious. So uh man, Yeah, I
gotta I'm dying. I want to get out to I just like going to
Vegas. I said, you sent me some pictures you on Fremont Street.
I fucking love dirty old Fremont Street. The Golden Nugget and that smells like
hot piss and there's old ladies and shit and it's smoke and I love that
old Vegas shit. About eight years I think I told you. I said,
dude, I've been out here. It looks We were texting and I
said, dude, it looks totally different. I haven't been here since the
kid so pre COVID kid five six, seven, seven, eight years that
I hadn't been to Vegas. You're like, really, I love that place.
What do you go all the time? Dean Martin, No, I've
been. I think three times. I went a few years ago. My
wife got a deal through work and we went out there and that was fucking
awesome. Another time I went and uh, Jennifer Lopez was doing a residency.
My wife's a huge fans, so we went out to that surpriser,
took her out there. It was fucking wild. But yeah, now Vegas
is good man. I just dig and then we you know, I don't
gamble because I don't have money, and I suck at it. So I
kind of learn a long time ago maybe that's not for me. So like
we'll go out and have drinks and fuck around, but then we'll go see
the shows. But then like you go and they got like these tours you
can do with the mountains, the mountain range out there, and you can
fucking hike and do all that bullshit. So it's like, oh, go
sweat out the Harvey wallbangers. You're drinking out in the goddamn mountains there,
which is beautiful as well. I've done it every which way. You know
how we talk about New Orleans. You can do it wild, or you
can do it mild marty grass, families, titties, different sets, actions
of town, all of that. Vegas you can do many different ways.
And I've done bachelor parties out there, and I've gone out there. Hal
and I went out there and we wrote Dune Buggies. We just got our
own doom buggy. We ran rolling around in the desert with that was amazing.
Yeah, I don't really, I'm not a big gambler. I gambled
a little bit. You know. Some people want to go and sit down
and go like have like some kick ass dinner. I don't care. Here's
what I want to do. And you know I went with you know,
my buddy, our buddy, Emmett. You've known EMMITTT forever and uh And
I said, dude, I want to walk. I've never traveled with him
before. This is weird because you know, you're going on a trip with
somebody and you never really travel with them, and everybody's different. Oh yeah,
And I said, dude, I really I like in Vegas. I
want to get up. I said, if you're going to, you know,
lay around and you want to take some time just to relax. I
get that. But I'm going to wake up and I'm gonna head out the
fucking front door and I'm just gonna start walking. He's like, no,
man, I'm down for that. And dude, we I mean Aria almost
down to Circus Circus. I mean like I walk like I it's I love
it. I absolutely love walking fast. I love being outside. It's that
dry air. It's about seventy it was like seventy three degrees and sunny.
Bock this man, grab a beer, walk and let's go. I just
want to walk. I'm just not a lay around. And again, there's
another way to do Vegas is go and you sit around and get a cabana
and spend a million dollars and be by the pool. You know, Okay,
you know what I mean. Like, I'm just the nerd. I'm
gonna lace up and I'm gonna fucking get outside. And I was only there
two days and I did it both days. You know. Yeah, I
wanted to walk. Man, I don't care. I'll sit down a play
a blackjack, you know, I'll do some of that, But that's not
it's not important to me. No, No, it's it's it's going man.
I last and we went. We were like at one end of the
strip, and then my wife's like, hey, we didn't ride the New
York New York roller Coaster yet. I'm like, it's like fucking eleven o'clock
at night, and I'm like, she's like, we gotta go. And
we just fucking hum all the way down this strip because we gotta ride the
goddamn roller coaster, which, by the way, fucking great. But it's
like, holy shit, man, it's like that's the kind of Vegas we
do. It's like, we do all of that stuff. I'm not going
out to my wife. It ain't gonna be Wolf of Wall Street, you
know what I mean. I mean, it ain't gonna be like that when
I go with the wife. It's just not it's gonna be a little more
mellow then you'd want to be, you know what I mean. But then
there's nothing wrong with and we have a fucking blast. But yeah, I
gotta gotta get back to Vegas, man, I gotta get out there.
I got to. I feel weird that it's been that long since I've been.
It's just you know, it's it's a good vibe. It's a good
vibe, and you know, there's a lot of similarities. So when the
last time I came into New Orleans and uh, I had a couple of
buddies and my buddy Chris got his brother Paul to come, and Paul's walking
around with us in New Orleans and at one point we're walking, you know,
we had a couple of beers and he just grabbed me. He's like,
dude, thank you. I had to kind of get on his ass.
I'm like, Paul, you're fucking going just go just work it out.
Well, you know, my kids and the wife and it's just a
guy's trip, and I go, just work it out, dude, work
it out. Come, spend the weekend. Okay, in and out.
We're just doing a weekend. He grabbed me at some point, like on
Saturday. We had a couple of beers in us. He's like, thank
you for staying on me. He goes, I hadn't been here in a
number of years. Same thing what I'm talking about in Vegas. He's like,
I just he goes, I used to come here all the time.
And he said, I'm so happy I'm here right now. I'm so glad
I'm here. Sometimes you just need someone to nudge you a little bit,
right. And he was like a solid no, And I'm like, dude,
come on, man, come on Paul. And his brother's like,
dude, just text him again. I'm like, I don't want him to
get maa. He goes, please text him again, and we talked him
into doing it, and then he grabbed me. He said, thank you
for pushing me because I hadn't been here in so many years. And he
goes and he said, he goes, I forgot how much I love New
Orleans. And I had that same thing going on when I'm walking around Vegas.
God damn, I forgot how much I love it here. Yeah,
yeah, it's it's it's cool, man, it's and those are two.
I mean, obviously I live here and I get it, but like,
like, there's something about Vegas that I can go to multiple times. There's
very few cities I can do that. I could go to La, but
even La you kind of run out of a couple of things after a while
because it's so spread out. You know, there's so much shit so far
away. You know, you can only go down to like the Rainbow and
the Whiskey. You do that little trip that's only a couple hours, you
know what I mean, And then you go out to the Santa Monica pier
Venis beeech Okay, you did that, you know what I mean, Like
you could do shit, but it's like so spread out and I do like
La but Vegas it's all compact. New Orleans, French Quarter compact. You
know, any other city you gotta wander over the fucking place. You know,
as far as the United States goes, it's a little bit different that
they're good walking cities. I mean, Boston's a great walking city. Yeah,
Chicago's a great walking city. New York but it's just we don't get
to walk as much. And I always tell I always say, you know,
walking. I know you're a big runner, but walking is our superpower.
It's our it is ours, it's it's it's now. I get it.
Not every single person can, but most of us can walk, and
you know, you don't do it enough. And it's something that I just
the one thing that I did notice because man, I used to be able
to walk all day New York City all day, get up the next day,
walk all day, didn't stop, and you know, I was like
a machine fifty four the next morning after walking all day, I mean,
I mean walking all day, then going to YouTube, getting up, I'm
like, okay, I gotta like my fucking calves. We're so tight.
I'm like, who the fuck was kicking me in the calves all night?
It was Bono? Did bon come in here and just fucking bite my calves?
So you drink many? You drank all those pina coladas. Dude,
that's gonna affect your calves, and I mean, really shit. So I
got up and I forced myself to do it, and I just boom,
went out and did it again and walked again for hours, dude, for
hours. It's the only way to go, man it It is the only
way. It's the only way to see anything. Man. You gotta get
your ass out walk. I mean I know it even now, Like I'm
like, you know, if I go a few days of walk in the
quarter doing shit, I'm like, oh man, the old bounce back ain't
quite there, you know what I mean. It's like what happened? But
I still go. But it's I used to a little more walking running.
I got tired, you know, walking. I would never get tired.
I would just keep going, going, going. And now I was like,
wow, shit, that was a lot of walking yesterday. I mean,
but I wouldn't let it beat me. I would not let it beat
me. No, no, no, no no. Well that's because we
could have gone down to the pool and just hung out at the pool and
then just started doing super sonics right out of the gates and just go,
let's go walk, Let's go walk, and I and I did it well
speaking of walk, and this is a shitty segue, but I'm gonna do
it anyway. Shout out to Misfit Rock Club. That's their that's their handle
on Instagram. Misfit Rock Club. Stop by big listeners of the Playpants podcast.
I sent you a picture. Uh and uh they stopped by the Pirates
of the Quarter store and they took the Pirates of the Quarter tour. Got
to meet them. And uh so why I say this, I was like
looking at their name. I didn't get their actual names because I'm an idiot,
but Misfit Rock Club, Okay, so I looked it up. Rocking
is where you put a backpack with weights on you just rock over the place
you're rocking. It's a rocksack. Yeah. I didn't know this until just
twenty minutes ago. I didn't know what rucking whether. I'm like, hey,
that sounds dirty. I gotta get me some of that. And then
I realized it's just fucking walk with a backpack. Yeah, all right,
it's your rucksack. Yeah, but it's cool shit. But so anyway,
shout out to Misfit Rock Club on Instagram for doing the tour and hanging out
at the shop for a little while. I believe it was a week ago.

form, we'll take it. We love it, you know, thank you

weeks back, and he after the Halloween podcast. He had found some stuff

he just says, man, love you guys. Can't wait for the next

Mamas and Papa's which you had that on your list, and that one yeah,
yeah, yeah, yeah, no, that one. I missed that
one, that one and that one. So as we're talking about fall,
it is going to kind of play into a little bit with our top five.
But fifteen days until Thanksgiving, forty seven days until Christmas, I was
a little rocked. I was a little rocked this week that mashed potatoes.
On one Polster questionnaire, mashed potatoes have overtaken stuffing as the number one side
for Thanksgiving? What mashed potatoes over? You can have those separate. This
is just me. I have stuffing one time a year, and every time
I eat it because well one time of year, not one day, because
eat the leftovers, right. But it would be like that even when I
was younger and we would grow up, we'd be eating stuffing and somebody's gonna
say, you know what, this is so good, why don't we have
this some other time? Why don't we have stuffing? And we never ever
ever make stuffing. That's what makes it so special. That's why it's the
fucking goat of sides, mashed potatoes and gravy. That shit does roll with
a bunch of other things throughout the year. I'm sorry, every day you
could have it every day but it is now the number one side dish.
Bro, what kind of bland ass mooks are fucking eating mashed potatoes like more?
Now we have it every year. It's there or some sort of potato
side dish. My mother law makes a great potato side dish that is delicious.
But look, I love my mother in law and I love what her
dish tastes like. But give me some stuff like, man, because it's
like you said, it's fucking like one time of year. That's it,
man, it's the one time. And I don't care if it's corn,
if it's dressing, if it's in the turkey's ass, I don't care how
you cook it. It's just it's stuffing. So we agree that that's the
fucking goat like that is the number two turkeys the goddamn star. There was
another crazy thing where people saying, just give me the sides. It's like,
come on, and then we have to do with the turkey. Come
on, turkey and stuffing. That's Thanksgiving turkey and stuffing. The street name
of the day is Turkey Day. Okay, the street it's not mashed potato
Day, it's Turkey Day. Turkey. I mean, you could you consider
and go, what's your what you know, what's your your off the top
of your head, your top three for Thanksgiving. It's gonna be turkey,
it's gonna be stuffing. And cranberry sauce just comes to mind because it's there.
I don't eat it, but it's there. I do eat it.
I do eat it. I do love it. What we did not grow
up with, which was the number three side, was mac and cheese,
and we did not. That wasn't a part of our Thanksgiving growing up.
No, no, no, no, no. Cheese was a mac and
cheese never segued into adulthood back home until you started going out to nice restaurants
in New Orleans and they had like some lobster mac and cheese or whatever,
like like you guys eat mac and cheese, like that's a little kid dish.
Well, then it kind of became like this cool side dish at nice
restaurants, right, Or it wasn't that. It wasn't that place right right
right? What's the ziggy place or the Carlos and Charlie's or something. Carlo's.
Yeah, I believe it's that's what. Yeah, I know it's Rocky
and Carlos Rocky and Carlos. So I got like, you gotta get this
or you don't eat mac and cheese. You think mac and cheese is a
kiddie thing. This is killa. You gotta eat some of this. And
then they put some red gravy on it and what else. I'm like,
Okay, fuck is this stuff is? Tec and cheese was nationally Mac and
cheese was number three, and then you got your green bean castle roll and
then cranberries. So I mean, you know, they're interchangeable after the stuffing.
After the stuffing, it's interchangeable to me. No, okay, Well
think of it this way. If you you know, you go back for
seconds now. Usually it's like I'll fry turkeys, so like the turkey gets
hammered right because it's so great, it tastes great. People go back for
seconds of the turkey. You going back for seconds of mashed potatoes. You're
going back for seconds of the stuffing. Me, it's like, give me
some more stuffing. Give it to me. Oh, I don't care if
it's fucking stovetop stuffing. I'll eat that shit too. I love it.
I gotta give it to I think it was Melissa Hyde. She said,
game changer. Take some stuffing, put it in a motherfucking waffle iron and
heat it. Reheat it that way, and you make a stuffing waffle and
you put gravy over it. Fuck fat boy, fat boy. As soon
as I read that, Fat Boy, I started to salivate when she when
I read that email this morning, Oh what a brilliant thing. That's how
you reheat it. Hah. You put it in the waffle iron. Yeah,
and then boom, you serve it up and puts it like gets a
little crispy on the outs. Oh my god, Jesus Christ, a stuffing
waffle and then you can serve it. You can wash it down with a
Tom Collins and you're gonna shut up. Put on some Betty Goodman in the
back, and you got yourself a little vegas drip all over again. Man,
wash it down with your carrot juice. I ask, Wow, stuffing
good? You know it's funny, go back to I was a little rocked
at that. I mean, I'm glad that I don't have to quit this
podcast. That you agree that stuffing is the top side. But like macaroni
and cheese was, like you said, it was the fucking box with the
orange dust and the milk, and that was it. That was macaroni and
cheese. And then like, yeah, you're right, you kind of didn't
have it after a certain age at home except for very rarely. And it
wasn't gonna be a side dish at Thanksgiving. Man, there's way too much
to any too many grandmothers and aunts and uncles and moms running around to be,
yeah, bring that box of shit over here, We're going to add
that to the thing. It was never that. It was always potatoes,
stuffing beans, cranberry sauce, corn bread. I thanks, I'll never forget
it. And I know she listens occasionally, So if Ma mc guinty's listening.
Our very first Thanksgiving, when you and I first moved out of Buffalo,
your parents came in for Thanksgiving, yep, and your mom came to
me because she wanted to, you know, she wanted to get everything right.
She's like, is there something that it was going to be everybody's first
Thanksgiving away from home. She's like, is there anything that you need?
You know, if we're having Thanksgiving? Like, what is it that you
need? And I said, well, I go, you know, anything
you make, anything that you know, I think we all kind of pitched
in. But whatever whatever we have is gonna be great. She's like,
but is there anything that you need on that table? And I said,
well, to be honest with you, I said, it might sound a
little weird, but Celery sticks cream cheese in them. She goes done,
She said, done, that's what you need. But she it wasn't unfamiliar
to her. No, there was we had all the time. It was
that she would do some with cream cheese and she put peanut butter in the
other ones. Remember growing up. Okay, yeah, that was our thing.
Yesh, she did it all the time. Yeah, so when you
asked, she was like, god it doing it again. So I'm a
latent life peanut butter. So I didn't eat peanut butter as a kid,
so I didn't do that. But I'm familiar with the concept with the celery.
But the celery and cream cheese, and then my mom would put like
some walnuts in some of them. But once a year. Again, there
was never ever. I mean, I think the fancy name was called stuff
celery. And you think, like I mean growing up, like I've I've
since made it and I like added a little shit put a little Tony saturies
or something in that creamy something. You think anything was ever added? Nothing,
It was just cream cheese in that. And your mom said, Okay,
boom, that will be on the table. So I love your mom
for that. That was our very first Thanksgiving away, and you know it
was awesome. She's like, tell me what you need. Yeah, you're
not going to be home. We couldn't, you know, we had to
work, So you're not gonna be home. What needs to be on that
table? And that was the one thing that I said, and she said,
I'll make that happen. Thank you mc guinty if you're listening. And
you said with me, have some slow gin phizzes too, and then we'll
have a good night. Yo, I said, a twist of lime.
What are you doing storying this? I like it, shaking, Mamma guinty
shaking. I do remember getting pretty drunk. So that's a good old passioned
Thanksgiving. Me. If you ain't toasted by the end of Thanksgiving, what's
the point? You know what I mean? Like, you gotta get ripped
up after Thanksgiving because everybody got along. Nobody fucking talked politics or anything like.
Yeah, you just drink and have fun. Man. Oh, I
can remember Thanksgivings when I was a kid. Man. My grandfather come over,
my grandmother come over. My grandfather smoked and fucking you know. My
mom like anybody's house, right, you're gonna it's Thanksgiving time, clean up
your room. We got a vacuum, we got a dust it's gonna be
nice people coming over us clean up. And my mom had like this one
lone old lone wolf ash trade that she busts out every time. My grandfather
come over. And he would sit there and just fucking smoke and tell cool
stories. And we watched football in the same old thing every holiday, and
and then it just be like two days of complaining about the smoking shit.
But you know what, it's those things that you remember that like at the
time, you're just like, yeah, that's fucking awful. It's blue like
that. You can see the blue haze in our fucking basement where we're hanging
out. Our houses were small too. They they weren't built to have big
family dinners and shit, we had eight foot ceilings. There's seven feet down
in the base. It was built for the four guintis that lived there.
It wasn't built to have all these people over and our same. Yeah,
it was great about it because people standing and eating off of paper plates on
their laps some night, you did. I've had those things. Get I've
had some wild ones and it's great, you know what, that's what's cool
about It doesn't matter. But yeah, stuffing dudemm No, okay, And
again you can even sit there and say, you know, why don't we
have this rest of ye why don't you do turkey the rest of the year.
I could easily fry turkeys in June. They're out there, you can
go get one. They're delicious, they feed a lot. No, I
know, I won't do I've never done a turkey outside of November and December,
nor have I. It would be fucking dope though. It would be
killer and be so delicious, so awesome, dude, chilling by the pool,
just a turkey in the oven, I don't care. It would be
awesome. Now the oven, I understand, because it's the summer. You
don't want to heat up the house, you know, you want to use
the oven as less as possible. That's why you want to cook outside.
So yeah, frying a turkey in the summer would be fucking amazing. I
just never even it never crosses my mind. Hey man, let's fry turkey
turkey sandwiches by the pool. Killer, think about some frying a turkey.
You're eating that delicious turkey by the pool. Well, maybe someone brings out
of Manhattan and you're just fucking living. You're just living out there. Brother.
Just he's having so much fun with that folks. I sometimes you just
gotta let him finish. It's just once I start, I can't stop.
I can't start humping your law, humping your leg. Sometimes you just gotta
let him finish. You gotta let me finish. And sometimes I got stamming.
I'll come back around. I got more, are you, Dirk Tiggler,
don't worry. We can shoot another scene right now. Just keep rolling.
We don't even stop the tape. I'll get her back. I'll get
her back. We got over here. It's like gym in American pie.
Don't go. I got reserves. I'm good to go. I'm ready to
go. I got a double barrel over here. I can get it done.
So are our top five songs about dark? Yeah? Because daylight Saving
singular time ended this past weekend. I used to complain about it a lot
more. For some reason, people don't want to hear you complain about that.
Now, there's a lot of people that have no problem with the motherfucking
sun going down at five point thirty. Okay, eh, okay, hot
topic. Guy with your what do you got a fucking bunch of scorpions and
tarantulas in aquariums in your house? I want some sun in my life,
Okay, I want the sun. I want the sun out till after eight.
I want it like that. The days already get shorter in the wintertime,
and then to make it worse, we adjust the clock so that the
sun goes down now at five point thirty. Fuck. And I'm a guy
that gets out of work early, okay, So I can't even imagine somebody
that works nine to five. If you actually are going into work, you're
working, let's just say nine to five, you're driving home. By the
time, you're hanging out with your kids, your family or whatever it is
you're gonna do, and it's dark. Yeah, No, I never understood
it. Come on, I never understood it, because, like you know,
most people, most people you know, you're you're rolling out of word
five six, seven, o'clock. Well, shit, five o'clock is dark.
You know. I always think about kids in school. You know,
you go to school and then you know it gets dark at five o'clock.
You know, I think of me. You know, don't have to be
selfish, but I think of me Rod when I was a kid, you
can every now and then, I had to be home at dark. Now
in the summertime, shit, I was out until ten o'clock some nights.
It was great, you know, but once that time change, Bitch,
five o'clock. My buddy's are out there having a blast, and I'm like,
it's fucking dark. I gotta go. Where you go it's five o'clock.
I'm like, I got to go. It's dark. That's my rules,
man, I gotta go home at dark. So I kind of gave
a little teaser, or as our friends Stagger used to say, I dropped
a little epitees on our Facebook page and I said, hey, we're recording
pot one or two tonight favorite dark songs. I just left it at that,
and I was reminded that some people don't want to talk about this,
and Nathan de Lord does not want to talk about this on our Facebook page.
I'm so tired of people complaining about the time change. The days will
get shorter in the winter, regardless of the time change. Get over it
now. He's right, He's totally right. You a message right now,
Nathan. Dear Nathan, you mother pound out a message to him. But
it doesn't bother them, and it's okay. But there is something called SAD
seasonal effective disorder. It's a real thing. I don't know that I have
it. I just fucking don't like it. No, And why do we
do it to ourselves? What's the purpose? I don't it's a self inflicted
thing. We don't have to do this. The sun will rise, the
sunset's been going on for millions of years. So we just lighter and safer
for children in the morning. I've heard that goofy ass fucking are now.
But that's what's going to happen. Somebody's going to d m us and say,
well, dude, you know they're doing away with it. Blah blah
blah blah blah. Hang, they're not doing away with shit. It got
caught up in the House. I believe the House said yes, they passed
it, and then the Senate said, fuck this, we're not doing this
so obviously the House is awesome and the Senate sucks, but it got caught
up. The Senate's got it's got to go and pass. There so breaking
news from our n N, the Rodney News Network. The House is great,
the Senate sucks. Okay, back to the regular schedule program. Thanks
for getting in RNN. I know that's why. I know, that's why
people come to this pod. You know, they want to hear my hot
political takes. That was a good one. I liked it that. That's
pretty good. It's been talked about. You know, it's been talked about.
There's you know, there's things in life that I'm just going to go
through my whole life and I'm never going to get it. I'm going to
probably have to change the clock twice a year. I'm never going to get
trick or Treating day on the last Saturday in October. And I'm not going
to move Super Bowl Sunday to Super Bowl Saturday or have the day after Super
Bowl a holiday. Those things are not going to happen. Some people are
going to continue to put pulp and orange juice. I'm gonna have to live
my life, Okay, I'm going to have to go on and be brave,
and I will. But I'm just mentioning that I would like the time
change thing to go away. What would be awful is if they took it
away and they kept us on this time all year round. Then don't fuck
with it, because this is what we're on right now is standard time.
Oh, this is this is the time. Daylight Saving Time is making the
adjustment. Now we're going back to what we are at now, standard time.
My fear is that we go to this all year round, which these
would be longer in the summer, but they wouldn't be as long, right
because you get up later and shit. Yeah, so now I'm I'm gonna
be that fucking annoying. I want it. I don't want the clocks to
change, but I want them set at daylight Saving time. It's gotta be
those two things working together otherwise no fucking deal for me. I don't know
if it's an older dude thing or what it is, but like I have,
all of a sudden the last couple of years, gotten in tune with
when the sun comes up. I'm getting up like and and that's that.
There's no like me sleeping. It ain't happening. It's like the sun comes
up, let's go. Like there's farmers listening to this podcast. I'm sure
they're in their combine right now, just chip chipping away at the fucking wheat,
and they're like, bitch, I don't care about time. I get
up when the sun comes up, because you gotta make hey when the sun
is shining, you know what I mean. So if you can figure out
a way to just run your life, obviously your your fucking schedule's crazy,
But like time is just bullshit. Man, if the sun comes up,
you want to be outside, get up, get up, go, you
know what I mean. Like if I go to the beach in the summertime,
I kind of just let I fucking time doesn't matter, you know,
let the earth, Let the earth wake you up, the earth man.
I let the earth work me. I let it work me good. But
yeah, that's kind of it. You know, it's just a self inflicted
thing. We're just fucking with ourselves. We just like to fuck with ourselves.
Well kind of what we're doing. Oh, I know, you got
school schedules, you got kids, and you got fucking jobs, and there's
expectations and all that bullshit. But like if you can figure out a way
and not have to have all that shit. Man, you just roll time
how you want it. We're gonna do our top five songs, and I
just put songs about dark, darkness dark in the title because I'm taking some
liberties here. Oh, I am taking some liberties with this list, and
I'm going to again, I'm going to stretch my legs a little bit on
this one. So I'm just letting you know. I'm just letting you know.
We will get to our lists coming up. Exciting news, it's still
exciting. It's still exciting, Jason, that you have an address in the
French Quarter. And I see, finally, I'm starting to finally see some
pictures. I'm looking at the Pirates of the Quarter on Facebook and you got
your cool sign made by the dirty boys. Pirates of the Quarter opened up
a store inside in the French Quarter. Now, okay, so there's a
you know, they call that what brick and mortar. So not only can
you take their five star rated tour, you can now visit their store six
oh seven do Main Street in the French Quarter. They've got the shirts for
sale. I mean, you can buy all this stuff online, but they've
got more in the store. So there's the beads of the bandanas and the
pirate gear, all this great stuff to choose from. I mean, you
might meet one of the pirates, okay, or the pirate wives. You
never know who's going to be in there. But take the tour and hear
the incredible pirate history of New Orleans, and then get that souvenir. Hang
out at the Pirate shop, visit the Pirates at six oh seven do Main
Street in the Quarter at Pirates of the Quarter on all socials Pirate of the
Quarter dot com. Just got done telling you how much I love walking.
This is a walking tour, beer in hand, amazing weather right now.
Oh it's perfect. It's a great time to be in New Orleans. It's
an awesome time to be in New Orleans. So use your superpower. Our
superpower is walking. And then boom, you're walking, you're drinking, and
you're listening to all these great pirate stories. There you go. Maybe we'll
get a few more people in the store for you, let's hope. So
because it works, advertising works, you know what I mean, it works.
And then Rod, I know when you come to town, I'll I'll
whip you up a French seventy five because I know you love those, this
fucking guy. So wait, dark thing man. So I really wanted to
drift off. Oh so I got you thinking here. I no, no,
I wanted to, but I stuck to the fucking code. You said,
songs about dark, dark, dark dark. Okay, So I went
so night is out because there's a billion songs about night that I would have
loved. The grab I did, I went nowhere near night. Okay,
good, all right. I kept it dark, and I still was able
to stretch out a little bit dark meat, white meat, dark meat or
white meat on your turkey, white meat all the way. Fuck that dark
meat. I just hear who wants this shit? But there's always like that
one person in the family. My father in law loves the dark meat.
He'll tell you it's juicier. They think that we're eating the dry meat,
like that white meat is dry. Everybody knows that it's you know, the
dark meat probably is juicier. But it's all veiny and shit grizzle and chewing
on like a super Bowl. It's like, yeah, shit, man,
like this, I'll grind I'll grind it up and put it in some turkey
salad or something like that. If it's incorporated into something, you know,
the turkey gumbo, whatever it's, I'm fine with it. But if I'm
just gonna eat a piece of turkey, it's gonna be fucking from that turkey
breast, right, Yeah. Absolutely. But it's like, it's always fun
to go to Thanksgiving, especially when if you get to somebody's else's house there's
other family members or whatever, and like me, I like, I like
to stand around. I want to see who's gonna go for the dark meat,
and I want to see that who's the wing nut that goes after the
wing in the in the leg, Like who's the who's the weirdo in the
family, you know, And I'm like, okay, it's you. And
I always cut because i mean, nine times out of ten i'm cooking the
turkey, I'm cutting up the turkey. So I will always here's the white
meat and here's the dark meat. You know, you get people the choice
and I don't the dark meat. People really do feel like they've got this
thing figured out. They're like, great, they know that most people want
the white meat. They're they're fine with it. They really feel like they've
cracked the fucking code on Turkey because it's no one's fighting over that part usually,
right, it's like you're just you're just chewing on it front hour,
You're like, go ahead, I can't even swallow this ship man, what's
going on over here? Walking around? I could chew it away, cheeks
out to here like a squirrel of the fucking pack of nuts. All right,
so you want to go first, I will go first. I don't
want you to get mad at me. Well if you fucking went into the
night world because I did not, I want to go night because no,
so no white snake still of the night. Oh oh, that had been
a good one, though. I gotta say, Okay, well you could
have used that. I guess. I mean, what am I gonna say?
I said, it's dark, it's getting I sent you an email today,
I said, bro, it's fucking sunset at five thirty. We did
time, I looked it up. I did do a little research. We
did time songs. Do you remember? Yeah? That one was hard too.
Okay, songs about time songs that mentioned time because I think we were
talking about the clocks, right, So I knew that was already off the
table. I just couldn't believe that, like fucking sunset at five thirty.
It's fucking infuriating to me. It's like, you know, and then Nathan
doesn't want us talking about it. Well, guess what. I'm not over
it. You're telling me to get over it, Nathan. I cannot get
over it. Okay, I've tried. I've brought up what do you like
better, white meat or dark meat, just to get you off the fucking
night thing, and we went right back to I feel less productive. You
know. It's like, okay, five thirty, no more sun It's time
to fucking wind this thing down. It's only five thirty. We're not winding
shit down. But see, here's the thing. If I was like younger
and like all I would do is like work at the radio station during the
day, and then it's like five thirty. Fuck, let's look at some
beers. I'm good. Yeah, that's cool man. I'm all for the
night. I love nighttime. I don't want night time to be five thirty.
All right, we gotta move on. I can't keep doing this,
all right. I can't get over it. Dark songs because I'm not happy
about it getting dark at number five, Billy Squire in the Dark have the
same fucking list? Are we gonna on the same list? The same list?
I'm gonna say, we're gonna have four to the same songs, the
sad I'm going four four songs will be the same. Okay, no tune
great? So it might be my favorite Billy Squire song in the dum Yeah,
it might be my favorite Billy Squire song in four. I felt like
I could have chosen any song I wanted, but I'm putting The Darkness on
my list. The band The Darkness. You know what the best song on
that debut album is I Believe in a thing called love so great. That's
how I'm getting away with this. I'm choosing the band called The Darkness now
is get your hands off my woman? Mother fuck? It might be better.
It gonna have some good songs. That whole first album is awesome,
and you know what the second album not so much. You know, Harold,
But you know you know who I ride with? Justin Hawkins Rides again.
You watch his podcast ever fucking great. I love that dude, man,
He's like, really Hawkins rides good. I can't do it, obviously,
but I love him, man, I like him breaking down songs and
you can tell he's really knowledgeable and he brings out the guitar and plays along.
You know, I listen, this is me Santa Claus sitting at Macy's
sending it over to Gimbals. You can listen to other podcasts. Okay,
I'm just giving to the freedom. You don't have to just listen to ours.
Wait, Justin Hawkins is great, dude. You just compare us to
Macy's and Justin Hawkins as Gimbals. Man, we didn't even we even have
pissed up guy on the court bringing a bell. We're not even that guy.
Okay, So squire the Darkness, nice one. I like that.
It's good. I believe in a thing called love. Yeah, I free.
You're right. I know we're gonna both have this. Look ouch,
Ronnie James Dio Rainbow in the Dark. It's so great and the you know
what, you should let that song kind of be your mantra this time of
year, like look for the Rainbow Rodney in the dark. Uh Okay,
I thought you were going to somehow nerve up another old cocktail there. You're
really just gonna leave that wide open. I'm gonna leave it wide open,
I'll save it. Simon and Garfunkel Sound of Silence, Hello Darkness, my
old friend, Oh shit, nice one. Yeah, opening line of the
song. Yeah. And I feel like maybe people got sick of it because
Disturbed was in heavy rotation everywhere. But I went back and listened to it
today. It's brilliant. I'm a huge Simon and Garfunkle fan. Those two
men singing together outside of family members. There's something about brothers that sing.
You know, the Beg's and when you hear the guys an Oasis and you
hear the guys in the Black Crows, siblings, you know, siblings when
they sing together, it's it's just next level. You can't get there,
the carpenters, all of that. If you look at the history of sibling
in a band, they sing like no other right, And you would think
that Simon and Garfunkel were related how well they sing together. But you can
tell they're not related because their voices are so different. But the blending of
those two instruments, it's just that original song. Because I'm burnt Undisturbed,
I'm really burnt on that, but it's it's still it's an amazing cover Number
one and this is where this hit me, and I said, oh shit,
I'm gonna take some shit from Jason Guinty on This no my number one
song because it contains the lyric dark my favorite song lyric of all time.
You don't know this about me, Jesus Christ, here we go, let
me get it Bruce Coburn. The song is called Lovers in a Dangerous Time
and the lyric is kick at the Darkness Till It Bleeds Daylight. It is
the greatest song lyric and it's the only time I have ever considered getting a
song lyric tattooed on me. I've never ever thought of one other band,
one other song lyric. Ever, I use that all the time. I
get it to get a little serious. You get people calling in and they
email me and they're if they're ever talking about addictions or anything like that.
I tell people I go, I never take it as my own. I
said, I'm going to share with you my favorite song lyric, kick at
the Darkness Till It Bleeds Daylight. It's in the song by Bruce Coburn,
Canadian guy, Lovers in a Dangerous Time, A dark lyric Number one for
me. I like it. I like that that's a good. That's a
good. Okay, we didn't have four the same we didn't. I think
we had wow, only two? Yeah too. So one other thing that
I want to say about that lyric because it's I do. It's just it's
brilliant. There was a Bruce Coburn tribute out them. Maybe you heard bar
Naked Ladies cover that song. It was like it was early in Baron Naked
Lady's career, and the name of the album, the tribute to Bruce Koberen
was called kick at the Darkness. There you go. That's that's what they
named the so that that lyric is special. And then the final thing I'll
say on it is John Lennon wrote a song God, and you know,
I don't believe in the Beatles. I don't believe in this he always he
goes, I believe in Yoko and me and that's it. And you just
kind of shit on everything, you know. So Bono maybe the only other
guy that could do this. He wrote a song called God Part two.
Okay, It's like, wow, that's ballsy, right, and it's a
great song and it's not as morose as John's. But in the in the
in the song God. Part two is don't believe in the sixties, the
Golden age of pop you glory or five the past when the future dries up.
Heard a singer on the radio late last night. He says he's gonna
kick at the darkness till it bleeds daylight. I believe in love. Wow,
he used that Bono used that lyric. That's pretty great. Part two.
It's great lyrics. It's it's my all time favorite song lyric. I
just think it's absolutely brilliant. The rest of Bruce Coeburn stuff, you know,
h No, I had a rocket launcher and it's weird songs never was
a favorite of mine, but that one song and the bearnagd Lady cover of
it is amazing. That's dark dark, dude. So you use that lyric
and then you use Rainbow in the Dark and you can turn this thing around
on maybe you just you just work it out in your little corner. Don't
keep talking about it, right, so stop stop moping around about the fucking
sun going down. Like Nathan de Lord is gonna be like, hey,
Hi, here's what you're gonna do. You put on fucking Bruce Coburn in
Rainbow in the Dark and you let the sunshine fly around in your own head
and leave us alone. Flying to Nathan right now, you up your Hey,
we need all the listener we can get. Love you, Nathan.
Okay, Jason, uh, well, you said you got two of those.
I'm just curious as to where they landed on your list. Mine is
different. I will say that's a nice list. This this was, This
was probably I had to do some digging on this one. I gotta be
honest, because man, I thought, oh dark, this is gonna be
easy. Then you realize not that many songs. There really aren't that many
songs that are decent. Oh, there's a lot there is. But well
you'll see number five Billy Squire in the Dark nineteen eighty one's Don't Say No,
I Love It, Love It. This is almost like of all the
artists that we talk about, and there's only really four Kis Foo Fighters,
Chris Cornell and Billy Squad Van Halen van Halen, Oh, okay, there's
Fine van Halen over that list. Dude. I don't know. I've had
too much candy or something, the Halloween candies downstairs. I'm trying to finish
it, so I'm just ripping through it like a man. So I'm like
all jacked up Billy Squire in the Dark nineteen eighty one, number five,
number four, and this will be the one I'll take shit for. But
I'm okay with it because I still like the song. Okay, this this
is a band. I don't think I've ever thought it would be in a
top five for me. Fallout Boy, my songs know what you Did in
the Dark, And at first I didn't like the song, but when Patrick
Stump is screaming on Fire, I went, oh, okay, like it's
so fucking cool. Yeah, it's a great song. But when he's screaming
I'm on Fire, I'm like, yeah, that's kind of a bit of
an old school metal thing right there. I like it. I don't hate
Fallout Boy. I don't hate him. I like Fallout Boy more than I'm
willing to announce right now, which I just kind of said how much I
like it. That works. I went to that Hella megatur them day and
they were fucking great. They were great. I'll tell you what. You
know what the letdown was the Peat guy the bass play wins. Yeah,
I thought like he was you know, he was the guy that everybody knew,
and uh, he just wasn't. He didn't do it for me,
Like is he didn't good bass player or something, or like what's the deal?
I would say that he's on the shittier side of a bass player.
I guess, um can fucking sing his ass off. And if that guy
in uh, if that Filipino doesn't work out in Journey, Patrick Stump can
do all that stuff, man, And some of that stuff that he sings
reminds me of Journey. Yes, you can, you get you can?
You can hear the influence there. So yeah, that was number four,
that same tonal quality. But no, that's a great I didn't even think
of that song, So kudos to you on that. I gotcha, I
got you. Number three. We've talked about this already. Di O's Rainbow
in the Dark look Out Holy Diver nineteen eighty three. Did you know this?
After they recorded the album? Of course back in eighty three, Ump,
you're using the reel, the real tape, the big eight track or
sixteen track tape. Right, they listened to the playback, the band and
all the producers sitting in the room. They play it back and deal's like
I'm taking some fucking razorblazes of that piece of shit. He was like gonna
go and slice it up so they couldn't use the song Rainbow in the Dark.
He thought it was too poppy, it didn't fit Holy Diver. He
wanted to slice it up, and the band like basically tackled the little guy
and said no, no, no, no, no no no. And
he's kind of obviously happy that they didn't, but he still fought years later
that it was just too poppy for that album. Did they did like stick
out their hand on his head and he was like swinging at him. Come
on, little guy, I don't remember. The Deo documentary is really really
good. I don't remember them covering that, so that's a good fun fact.
I don't think I knew that. Yeah, he said that. Look,
he had just come out of being in Black Sabbath, right, because
he came out of Black Sabbath and went solo, and he's like, I
can't come out of Black Sabbath with all that fucking heavy dark shit and then
make this poppy Rainbow in the Dark song. But like to us today,
it doesn't. I mean, yeah, it's a little more brighter, but
it still rocks you. Know in his mind though. The big difference is
the keys, you know, yeah, with your stuffing fucking cool right,
you know they're great. They're awesome. It's a great song. I mean,
Rainbow in the Dark is awesome. I love ryding games. Yeah,
he's the coolest. Number number three. That was whatever three? Number two
kind of sticking in the same world. Going back to nineteen eighty six,
the Ultimate sin Azsie's Shot in the Dark. I had that as your number
one. I wanted to. I really love that song. It's it's so
great, But my number one had that. I think you had that on
your Ossie top five lists. Yeah, probably did. I love that song.
I love that freaking song. I pay attention to these things sometimes I
don't even pay attention to my eye. I think you had Shot in the
Dark as your in your Assie top five. Dude, I'm going to blow
your mind with my number one. I think your number one, blue minds
mind will blow minds in a different way and you're gonna be surprised. What
is it dark spelling backwards? Yeah, Crady, I had to really think
about it. Crad. You never heard of Crad? What is it already?
Nobody's gonna listen to this one. I don't think uh. Number one,
Tito and Tarantula. There's a great song called after Dark from dusk till
that song Dawn. That is the song that's playing on Selma Hyak doing her
dance at the Titty Tit Twister down in Mexico, Dusk till Dawn. If
you don't know it, I'm telling you look it up on YouTube. That
song is so fucking cool and it can only be played later in the evening
after a few drinks because it's that good. Like so you're off the book,
you are totally off the hook. I'm pissed off at Ginty Now a
great song, great great song, ding Ding ding ding, brilliant. It's
brilliant, man, It's And then the only other song that I kind of
was like, nah, put on my list. I didn't like it.
I don't like that song that much. But like, if you think about
lyrics, knocking on Heaven's door, it's getting too dark, too dark to
see. Ha ha ha. Okay, you could have used that any version,
not the Dylan, but you could use guns and roses. You know.
That was enough for me. I stopped looking after that. Iron made
in Fear of the Dark. Yeah, that was their number six. My
number seven was Eddie and the Cruisers. I couldn't bring myself. I fucking
used to love that song, and I'd like to mention something right now.
I believe the man's name is Michael Pere Right. Yeah, it might be
the best lip sync job I've ever seen in my life. Marky Mark did
a great job in Rockstar of lip syncing that, but not as good.
That guy sold it that he was Eddie and he was singing those songs.
Okay, I mean Cruisers. It's every bit as good as was it Rammy
Malick, Oh, Queen in Queen, It's every bit as good as the
lip syncing that he does in that Academy Award winning performance. The lip syncing,
I remember noticing it when I was young. I have not seen Eddie
and the Cruiser in a hundred years, but I'd like to go back and
watch it. The music was good, Yeah, the music was good.
It was one of those things that was on HBO all the time. Yeah,
for a few short years because they only had like five movies because they
didn't have the rights anything. So you hear you watch that, like three
other films all the time? Was there there was a part two? Eddie
Lives? Jesus it was there was a part too, because they left it
open. Remember when they showed that he died and they released the album and
then people were watching in a store window back, you know, like the
old timey when you would watch TVs and the window of a storefront, and
they showed his face in the window. I have not seen it. It
meant he was alive, so I believe that is it. I think there
was Eddie and the Cruisers too. Eddie lives. Dude, how do you
remember that? I don't know, dude, I don't know. I don't
fucking know. I remember some things. Oh my god, many too many
Singapore slings. Brother, Yeah, there he goes hinga poor slingers. That's
what I was drinking. You're right, you know what I I tripped on
and I got admitted. Before today, I did not know this song.
Eminem does a song called Darkness and if you wanted to go dig into something,
it deals with the mass shooting in Vegas and he actually uses a hotel
room and then he uses some real footage in it. There's a warning beforehand,
but Eminem is obviously super powerful doing what he does. I mean,
he's the best at it. But he also uses sound of silence in there.
Hello Darkness, my old friend, and he's kind of rapping on top
of it, and uh, it's just it's so dark. You know,
he's creating awareness and at the end there's a problem and he shows all these
other TVs and it's school shootings, and you know, I don't always want
to look at that stuff, but i'd also don't want to put my head
in the sand. But eminem, the song is called Darkness, and holy
shit, is it powerful. I watched it today. I watched the video
today and I realized it's a couple years old. I saw that in my
digging around. I was like, well, uh nah, I'm gonna keep
moving. I didn't even check it out, but I will check it out
now for sure. Yeah, it's pretty great. It's pretty great. Good
lists, man, I got some listening to do again. I this these
types of lists I'm loving because you know, when it's your top five Iron
Maiden songs, I know the Iron Maiden songs that I like. But when
it's when it's a theme, you start looking for different things. And that's
where you know, our lists vary and stuff, so I like that.
I don't know. I wish somebody could just send me a hundred ideas like
this so that we can create lists. Yeah, because that's where you get
different songs. Yeah, I really was. When you started. I'm like,
oh shit, we're gonna have the same fucking basic list. I thought
we'd get at least one, or I thought we were gonna have four.
I really did. I'm like, you're gonna have the Aussie in there,
you're gonna have the do O, You're gonna the Billy Squire. And then
I'm like, okay, maybe we'll get a lucky on the other ones.
No, man, I was surprised we didn't have more on that one.
Yeah, good list, good work. I like that one. Fuck,
let's wrap this up. We don't have another commercial. I got nothing going
on. It's not a bad thing. You know, it gets dark early.
What are you gonna do? No? I shouldn't have brought that up.
What an idiot I am. Final thoughts. Veterans Day is on Saturday,
Marine Corps Birthday is on Friday. They've been blowing me up for a
three weeks now, they'll blow me up six months out and they'll tell me
just so you know, Rod it's coming up. I'm like, dude,
it's six months away. Marine guys they love their birthday. You know,
we love all of our men and women in all the service. It's just
those Marine guys. It's just the birthday just is different with them. I
know your brother, and I know Eric. You know you're close with some
Marines. They're just a different breed of people. I love every one of
you, devil dogs. But every year, this is my this is our
third year now, and every year going into Veterans Day and Memorial Day,
I always mentioned the movie Taking Chance, and most it's more Memorial Day,
but Veterans Day as well. And I realize we're just celebrating veterans, and
I know the difference between the two holidays. But I always mentioned the movie
Taking Chance. And I feel like one person every time I mention it,
they go and they watch that movie. It's Kevin Bacon. It was I
think made for HBO, but it's streaming somewhere. You can find it out
there, and uh, if you're looking for something to watch again, you
know, like I love war movies. We did a we did a war
movie. List. I'm sure. I'm sure we have and uh, you
know, and there's greats out there. And if you've never seen, and
I know you'll back all of this up, you know, if you've never
seen Band of Brothers or the Pacific or all that stuff. Man, that
stuff's amazing. You know. I never served, Jason never served. So
we we we lived through these things and stories from our friends and stuff.
So shout out to all the vets out there and what meant Briggs, to
our buddy Briggs. So these are our like our close close brothers that that
have served. But to everybody out there veterans day, thank you guys.
Yeah, no, that's it's it's uh, it's you know, every time
I see or I see a buddy of mine who I know served, Like
you know, anytime I see Briggs, when I when he comes to town
or I go back home and see him, I'm just like, you know,
it hits me for a quick second. I don't aways say something,
you know, or any like that, but it's just it hits you,
you know, even if I don't say something, because you know, what
am I gonna say? Every time I see the you know, hey,
thanks for serving? I mean maybe I should. I don't know, but
I don't think you would need to hear that. I just know, and
because I recognize it internally, I feel like it means something, you know
what I mean. But this time of year, you definitely should recognize anybody
you know, just even if it's a quick hey man, you know,
thanks, you know. I will send those texts out to some some friends
this weekend because it's important. And if you're a fan of New Orleans the
World War Two Museum, they just added a whole nother wing. I haven't
been in a couple of years, but man, if you haven't been to
the World War Two Museum in New Orleans, it's expanded. There's way more
shit in there, and like you could spend like a whole day there,
I mean a whole day. It's incredible. I mean, it's it's one
of the best museums that I've ever been to. You know, it's really
hard to that September eleventh Museum, just the resources and everything. Jesus Christ,
I mean, the September eleventh Museum in New York City, It's just
unbelievable. But right there is the D Day Museum, and Tesla was just
talking about this. You know, Tessa finally made it over to New Orleans
and she really really wants to go to the museum and uh and she said,
yeah, did you hear And I said, no, I didn't.
I thank you for you know, mentioning mentioning that to me, because I
need to go back too, you know, I need to go back.
And I've been there before and there's been, uh, I said, the
three or four times that I've gone, there's always been at least one World
War two VET that was kind of you know, hanging around or whatever.
And I know that. You know, my god daughter, your daughter,
she worked there for a while and that was the coolest thing ever. Oh
god. Yeah, it's just it's it's special. It's special. And you
go to New Orleans, you go to party, and I get that,
I understand that. But man, if you can ever carve out some time,
even if you get up early and all your buddies are going to be
sleeping all day because they're all hungover, you get get your ass up and
get over to the museum. And if you spend three hours there, it's
better than no hours there. You need more time, But just go see
it. It's amazing. It is amazing, and they did expand it and
I went over the summer with my son, and you know, and he's
he's a huge World War Two fan. I mean, you're not a fan,
you're not a fan, but you know what I mean. Like,
he loves the history of it. He loves the stories and stuff. And
I explained shit to him all the time, and he does his own research
now. So we went and walked through it together, which was insane because
he has, you know, think about it, he's fifteen now, he
has he's so far removed from that. You know. You know, people
our age, we have probably grandparents that may have fought or served during that
time period, so you had some first hand stories. Occasionally it would bounce
around at the Thanksgiving dinner table or whatever, you know what I mean.
But he's so far removed at that point, you know, so it's like
me telling them stories. It doesn't have the same impact obviously, Although he's
chu said, wait, wait, grandfather, you know my grandfa did what
And I explained to him He's like, what, that's insane. I'm like,
I know, you know, And then you go to the museum and
you start seeing it more and it's just it's it's good to see someone that
age take an interest because you know what, You've got to understand history,
so don't fuck it up again. Hopefully you know it's it is important.
So uh yeah, next time you come to New Orleans, I'm doing a
bigger commercial for them than I am for the damn Pirates store. So anyway,
there you go. It is awesome, man, That's why New Orleans
is so great. We should be getting paid just for the mayor and New
Orleans for all this sh in the city of the city. Yeah, the
city. We promote the funk out of this place. That's all I got.
I got nothing, all right, Guinty, hell of a run.
It was a good one. I'm gonna get more candy though, because man,
I'm getting the sugar crash. You're starting to hit me. Man,
I'm starting to fucking lose my step all right. Guys, if you're watching
