18
00:02:05,480 --> 00:02:07,840
uh. I wasn't sure if you
were aware. I wanted to make sure

19
00:02:07,840 --> 00:02:12,560
you knew. It's it's a very
powerful and prestigious position. Sometimes I commit

20
00:02:12,599 --> 00:02:15,240
war crimes. It's great. No, I'm kidding about that part. My

21
00:02:15,280 --> 00:02:19,560
goodness, I don't want to end
up in the Hague. Welcome everybody.

00:02:19,639 --> 00:02:22,240
Yes, Texas Mike is here.
We don't see you as much as we

23
00:02:22,360 --> 00:02:24,560
used to Texas Mike, but but
it is wonderful to see you, my

00:02:24,599 --> 00:02:31,560
friend. Well, what's on your
shirt? For those watching online? My

place of business, Plank Wars Cafe
on the west side here and me and

26
00:02:36,759 --> 00:02:38,919
Chest. Yeah, I've never been
there, but everything I hear is wonderful.

27
00:02:39,120 --> 00:02:42,240
Yes, you've been there for a
few years. Right, Yeah,

28
00:02:42,439 --> 00:02:49,080
just just huh, very good,
very good. And anything anything new with

29
00:02:49,120 --> 00:02:53,120
the love life, just fucking along
as always. All right, everything's good

30
00:02:53,159 --> 00:02:57,719
though, everything's stable since we last
talked. Yes, it is good,

31
00:02:57,960 --> 00:03:01,439
good. I think this is a
record for you. Yeah, very good,

32
00:03:02,319 --> 00:03:06,599
very good. Well, welcome everybody
on this Friday afternoon. Of course,

33
00:03:06,879 --> 00:03:13,039
we did open with the video that
I opened with, Well to you,

34
00:03:13,080 --> 00:03:15,000
it's audio, but after all,
it's a radio show, but I

35
00:03:15,039 --> 00:03:21,319
found it on YouTube. I wanted
to play something that kind of explained some

36
00:03:21,439 --> 00:03:25,759
of the for the uninitiated, the
history of Senator Dianne Feinstein from California.

37
00:03:27,120 --> 00:03:30,159
Woke up to the news today that
she had passed away at the age of

38
00:03:30,240 --> 00:03:36,800
ninety. Not a shock in the
sense that obviously her declining health had become

39
00:03:38,080 --> 00:03:44,400
a pretty serious issue, and as
we've discussed recently, and so I wanted

40
00:03:44,439 --> 00:03:46,639
to, you know, just kind
of memorialize her that way and what we'll

41
00:03:46,680 --> 00:03:49,919
talk about that a little more too. And then, of course, and

42
00:03:49,960 --> 00:03:53,080
then I played I Don't Be a
Stranger, only because that's just been stuck

43
00:03:53,120 --> 00:03:55,159
in my head since the first time
I heard it by the band Fox and

44
00:03:55,199 --> 00:03:58,759
the Flamingos, who we had on
earlier in the week. Oh my god,

45
00:03:58,800 --> 00:04:00,439
I can't get enough of that song. I cannot get enough of that

46
00:04:00,479 --> 00:04:03,080
song. But we have a call. Let's see who's on the line.

47
00:04:03,159 --> 00:04:08,280
Hi, Welcome to Matt Connerton Unleashed. Who's this Well, if it isn't

48
00:04:08,360 --> 00:04:13,960
my favorite member of my rock and
roll army. Yes, Jerry Robinson on

49
00:04:14,000 --> 00:04:18,000
the line. Hi Jerry, Hello, matts So, Hello Texas Mike.

50
00:04:18,360 --> 00:04:24,879
Hello Jerry, Texas Mike. Why
don't you give Jerry ayeha? Oh very

51
00:04:24,959 --> 00:04:30,000
nice. He's from Texas. Quite
that, Really it's actually from Texas.

52
00:04:30,040 --> 00:04:33,120
You know. Some people like to
have you know, like you know,

53
00:04:33,240 --> 00:04:36,399
like really cool names, of course, but if he's actually from Texas,

54
00:04:36,439 --> 00:04:41,800
and that's just one extra level cooler, right, he actually is from Texas,

55
00:04:41,920 --> 00:04:46,639
unlike some people who claim they're from
places when they're really from Poughkeepsie or

56
00:04:46,720 --> 00:04:49,519
something. Yeah. No, Texas, Mike, He's actually from Texas.

57
00:04:49,839 --> 00:04:55,439
I mean prue born and bred,
you know, big awesome Texas man.

58
00:04:55,560 --> 00:05:00,480
That's great. Listen, matts So. I don't want to ruin the show

59
00:05:00,480 --> 00:05:03,959
anything, but I just had the
call and just put it out that one

60
00:05:03,959 --> 00:05:10,360
more time before tomorrow, of course, our big show you me, Billy,

61
00:05:10,720 --> 00:05:15,600
Aaron Patcher, It's all tomorrow.
I cannot wait to play live with

62
00:05:15,720 --> 00:05:20,639
you guys. It's gonna be fantastic. Absolutely, I'm very excited and uh

63
00:05:21,040 --> 00:05:26,680
boy to be in front of a
live crowd performing these songs and you know,

64
00:05:27,079 --> 00:05:30,360
too, being able to for the
audience to be able to experience them

65
00:05:31,079 --> 00:05:34,160
unedited. Because of course there's certain
songs if you hear them on the radio

66
00:05:34,160 --> 00:05:38,240
when I play them on the show, there's their radio edits. But oh

67
00:05:38,319 --> 00:05:41,839
yes, you'll get to hear them
in all of their glory. Yes,

68
00:05:41,920 --> 00:05:45,519
it's gonna be fantastic, you know, you know, yeah. I was

69
00:05:45,600 --> 00:05:50,000
talking to uh Alan Patch earlier and
he said that, he said he was

70
00:05:50,040 --> 00:05:55,399
a little bit nervous, but I
told him listen, I said, Eric,

71
00:05:55,519 --> 00:06:00,240
you're no longer just you know,
a film review. You now full

72
00:06:00,319 --> 00:06:03,319
scale rock star. So you know, all the sticks are gonna be like

73
00:06:03,439 --> 00:06:06,480
wanting to, you know, hold
your hand and hug you and stuff.

74
00:06:06,519 --> 00:06:12,439
So you know, ever he's got, Billy doesn't have that problem. Billy

75
00:06:12,639 --> 00:06:15,439
he told me flat out, he
said, I'm gonna hug as many girls

76
00:06:15,480 --> 00:06:18,839
as possible. So it's gonna be
a great show that should be absolutely zero

77
00:06:18,959 --> 00:06:23,959
stress, because of course it's a
soul Well, I can't really say it's

78
00:06:23,959 --> 00:06:29,360
sold out. It's the free show
that we're doing, but I guess you'll

79
00:06:29,360 --> 00:06:31,680
say booked out. I guess fully
booked out show, would that be the

80
00:06:31,759 --> 00:06:34,480
right word. I think we can
go with that, Jerry. Yes,

81
00:06:34,600 --> 00:06:40,120
it's booked out. This book.
I think like two thousand people. It's

82
00:06:40,160 --> 00:06:44,959
going to be fantastic. It's gonna
be great. I'm really really excited to

83
00:06:44,959 --> 00:06:46,279
hear your baselines. Like you know, you know, when you're in the

84
00:06:46,319 --> 00:06:49,319
studio and they pump it through the
audio, like you know, you can

85
00:06:49,360 --> 00:06:54,360
kind of tell, but when you're
on that stage, you really feel that

86
00:06:54,439 --> 00:06:57,879
base. So I'm very very excited
to see what you'll Maybe you'll do some

87
00:06:58,160 --> 00:07:01,199
extra cool stuff live. Might I
might do that? Jerry. I've been

88
00:07:01,199 --> 00:07:05,800
practicing my scales. I've been I've
been running my scales. Also, what

89
00:07:05,879 --> 00:07:11,120
was the name of that that song
you had right before your show started with

90
00:07:11,160 --> 00:07:15,079
that? It had a very very
beautiful female voice in it. Yeah,

91
00:07:15,120 --> 00:07:19,759
that's Mazy Ray from the band Fox
and the Flamingos. Jerry. We had

92
00:07:19,759 --> 00:07:24,199
them on the show earlier in the
week and they played live. Oh,

93
00:07:24,319 --> 00:07:28,680
just incredible. But I love that
song. That's a hit song. It

94
00:07:28,759 --> 00:07:31,120
sounds funny, it's like ah,
I mean, it's it's like bluesy.

95
00:07:31,439 --> 00:07:35,399
It's like kind of like bluegrass.
It makes you know, like when you

96
00:07:35,480 --> 00:07:41,079
hit the song take Me Home Kent
three Roads, it gave me that kind

97
00:07:41,160 --> 00:07:46,839
of feeling deep deep down inside my
heart. Wow, that's amazing, wonderful.

98
00:07:47,120 --> 00:07:50,920
Well, yes it is. It
was excellent. I just wanted to

99
00:07:51,000 --> 00:07:57,120
call promote the show. The audio
will be live or we're gonna record it

100
00:07:57,199 --> 00:08:01,279
live, but yes, the audio
will probably be available by Sunday if mister

101
00:08:01,360 --> 00:08:05,399
Beacon get it out fast enough,
but really quick. Also, Texas,

102
00:08:05,480 --> 00:08:09,639
Mike, are you still down on
the line. Yes, yes, I'm

103

104
00:08:13,439 --> 00:08:18,000
Mike, I would like to know
I extend this to all of Matt's friends

105
00:08:18,040 --> 00:08:24,160
because I trust Matt and his judgment. Would you like to be the newest

106
00:08:24,199 --> 00:08:30,680
member of Jerry's rock and roll Army? I'd love too. Oh my god,

107
00:08:30,759 --> 00:08:33,759
Wow that's so cool Texas, Mike. I've always wanted to be in

108
00:08:33,799 --> 00:08:39,320
a band with you. This is
fantastic. Listen, Matt. I hope

109
00:08:39,360 --> 00:08:43,039
you have a great rest of your
day. Texas, Mike, I hope

110
00:08:43,080 --> 00:08:46,080
you have a great rest of your
day. All the best, Jerry,

111
00:08:46,639 --> 00:08:52,000
Thanks Jerry, Wow, the great
Jerry Robinson can't wait. Well, welcome

112
00:08:52,039 --> 00:08:54,320
to the bad now. If you
realize that means you have to play tomorrow

113
00:08:54,399 --> 00:09:00,639
night. I'm always booked. We'll
figure something out. Maybe you can have

114
00:09:00,679 --> 00:09:03,200
an AI version of you at the
show. Yeah. By the way,

115
00:09:03,519 --> 00:09:05,919
uh and I don't know. Jerry's
an older gentleman, so it might not

116
00:09:07,000 --> 00:09:11,080
have occurred to him to ask,
do you play an instrument? I guess

117
00:09:11,120 --> 00:09:13,240
my voice? My voice is my
industry. Well, yeah, you could

118
00:09:13,279 --> 00:09:18,919
be like a backup singer, or
there's always the tambourine to fall back on.

119
00:09:18,279 --> 00:09:22,679
Yep, exactly, there's always the
tambourine. Very good, Wow,

120
00:09:22,720 --> 00:09:28,519
this is exciting. Welcome Texas,
Mike. I uh boy, I that

121
00:09:28,679 --> 00:09:33,679
was that was a truly a remarkable, wonderful Yes, and of course you

122
00:09:33,720 --> 00:09:37,519
know the show is booked out.
It's very uh, very exclusive. There's

123
00:09:37,600 --> 00:09:41,159
there's gonna be a lot of industry
people watching. I know that, but

124
00:09:41,320 --> 00:09:45,840
uh, but yes, I believe
Sunday night, mister B will have the

125
00:09:46,200 --> 00:09:50,000
full show available online and you'll be
able to you'll be able to hear the

126
00:09:50,039 --> 00:09:52,200
audio. I don't think I don't
think there's going to be video, but

127
00:09:52,200 --> 00:09:54,480
you'll be able to hear the audio
of what we did. It'll be like

128
00:09:54,519 --> 00:09:58,840
a live album. It'll be great. Ah. It's a very very exciting.

129
00:09:58,960 --> 00:10:01,120
This is like a this is like
a whole new chapter for all of

130
00:10:01,200 --> 00:10:05,399
us in our in our careers,
and well for you, it's really the

131
00:10:05,759 --> 00:10:09,600
Actually it's not the beginning of a
music career for you, because you did,

132
00:10:09,360 --> 00:10:13,159
from what I recall, for a
little while you were the manager and

133
00:10:13,320 --> 00:10:18,879
producer for New was it New Affirm
of the Spark. Yes, yes,

134
00:10:20,360 --> 00:10:24,440
now that didn't work out. I
realize, Yes, you had some creative

135
00:10:24,480 --> 00:10:28,440
differences or something. I think it
just wasn't just just wasn't vibing, correct,

136
00:10:28,679 --> 00:10:31,840
Yeah, yeah, I understand.
Well, you know those people from

137
00:10:33,200 --> 00:10:35,399
not to stereotype, but the people
from Greensboro, North Carolina, they can

138
00:10:35,440 --> 00:10:39,120
be a little difficult to work with. They're very demanding. Uh. They

139
00:10:39,159 --> 00:10:45,480
always uh they're always putting things in
hashtags, you know, they they talk

140
00:10:45,600 --> 00:10:48,360
funny. I mean, it must
have been weird, right when one of

141
00:10:48,360 --> 00:10:50,440
them would would come up to you
and say, you know, I have

142
00:10:50,519 --> 00:10:54,039
a question, I say to you, hashtag Texas Mike. I would imagine

143
00:10:54,039 --> 00:10:58,960
that got tedious after a while.
Yes, yes, yes, well,

144
00:10:58,039 --> 00:11:01,840
the well, this is all very
exciting. What a what a great uh,

00:11:13,080 --> 00:11:16,159
the hour. Speaking of Eric Pincher, or we call him Eric Pilcher,

149
00:11:16,200 --> 00:11:22,080
but Eric Pincher is like his stage
name, yeah boy, And when he

150
00:11:22,120 --> 00:11:24,879
plays guitar, I'll tell you,
I mean, i'll tell you later.

151
00:11:26,039 --> 00:11:30,879
I'll tell you tomorrow when when we're
when the show's live, when we're playing

152
00:11:31,120 --> 00:11:37,720
No. But uh, he's got
this week on the agenda is Night of

153
00:11:37,759 --> 00:11:43,279
the Living Dead for his classic film
review and I really Eric is uh as

154
00:11:43,320 --> 00:11:48,600
he's been celebrating the career of George
A. Romero U this month, he's

155
00:11:48,639 --> 00:11:50,960
kind of taken the film reviews in
a little bit of a different direction.

156
00:11:50,960 --> 00:11:54,399
He's approaching it differently, and I
really like what he's doing. I think

157
00:11:54,399 --> 00:11:56,600
this is one of his best ones
yet. So we're gonna share that with

158
00:11:56,600 --> 00:12:00,000
you at the top of the hour. And it's been cool over the past

159
00:12:00,159 --> 00:12:03,480
couple of years working with Eric on
these I mean well, I mean he

160
00:12:03,679 --> 00:12:07,399
he does all the work. I
do a little bit of just light editing,

161
00:12:07,679 --> 00:12:11,240
very light. Actually at this point
I do hardly any editing at all.

162
00:12:11,279 --> 00:12:16,120
To them but I do listen to
them first, and it's been cool

163
00:12:16,120 --> 00:12:20,559
seeing him kind of evolve. Uh
well, I shouldn't say kind of.

164
00:12:20,679 --> 00:12:24,600
He definitely evolved in terms of his
process and his presentation on these reviews,

165
00:12:24,600 --> 00:12:28,080
and you can you can kind of
hear it too, at least I notice

166
00:12:28,120 --> 00:12:33,159
it because I pay attention really closely. Is I notice that he just seems

167
00:12:33,200 --> 00:12:39,600
more confident in his reviews, not
that he wasn't in the beginning, but

168
00:12:39,639 --> 00:12:41,399
he seems a lot more confident with
with all of it now, and I

169
00:12:41,399 --> 00:12:46,320
can hear it and how he narrates, how you know, he writes out

170
00:12:46,320 --> 00:12:48,720
a script and everything and then he
goes to put the review together in But

171
00:12:48,799 --> 00:12:50,559
yeah, he does a great job. So I know he's in the chat

172
00:12:50,639 --> 00:12:52,240
room, but I don't know if
he can actually I think he might be

173
00:12:52,279 --> 00:12:56,639
working, so I don't know if
he can actually hear these glowing compliments.

174
00:12:56,679 --> 00:12:58,960
But I do have many glowing compliments. He's my favorite conservative, you know,

175
00:13:01,559 --> 00:13:03,759
And that segment will return next week, I think. I think that's

176
00:13:03,799 --> 00:13:07,279
the plan in the second hour or
so. But yeah, six O three

177
00:13:07,360 --> 00:13:11,879
two five six seven six zo three
two five O six zoh seven, we

178
00:13:11,919 --> 00:13:15,000
will say hello to everybody in the
Facebook live chat in a moment, and

179
00:13:15,840 --> 00:13:18,399
if you are just joining us,
uh, oh, Eric Pilcher says,

180
00:13:18,440 --> 00:13:20,120
I'm here, and if you are
just joining us, we will talk a

181
00:13:20,159 --> 00:13:24,559
little bit more about Diane Feinstein of
course as well. Uh, Senator Diane

182
00:13:24,559 --> 00:13:30,720
Feinstein passing away today at the age
of ninety. And it was last night.

183
00:13:30,759 --> 00:13:33,120
I fought, oh was it last
night? Oh? Okay, I

184
00:13:33,679 --> 00:13:35,200
woke up to the news today,
so I don't know. I guess I'm

185
00:13:37,080 --> 00:13:39,559
yeah now now that you mention it, Yeah, I think I did remember

186
00:13:39,600 --> 00:13:45,200
hearing it was last night. But
yeah, like I said, you know,

187
00:13:45,279 --> 00:13:50,879
not not a big shock given her
her health challenges at the end.

188
00:13:50,039 --> 00:13:56,320
But but quite a career. Uh. You know, whether you liked her

189
00:13:56,480 --> 00:13:58,320
or didn't like her, whether you
agreed with her politics or not, or

190
00:13:58,759 --> 00:14:01,960
a read with her sometimes, you
know. I mean, she wasn't like

191
00:14:01,879 --> 00:14:05,840
you know, she wasn't particularly as
they said in that piece that I played

192
00:14:05,879 --> 00:14:11,519
from the Washington Post, you know, not not particularly liberal necessarily, but

193
00:14:11,039 --> 00:14:16,600
kind of a centrist Democrat. But
uh, but quite a career. Quite

194
00:14:16,600 --> 00:14:24,320
a career, I learned today.
I didn't realize that when Walter Mondale ran

195
00:14:24,480 --> 00:14:28,679
for president in nineteen eighty four challenging
Reagan, which obviously didn't go well for

196
00:14:28,919 --> 00:14:35,840
Mondale, but that before he settled
on Geraldine Ferraro. Diane Feinstein was one

197
00:14:35,840 --> 00:14:39,600
of the prospective VP candidates that Mondale
had interviewed. I had no idea about

198
00:14:39,600 --> 00:14:43,919
that until today. But our friend
Shannon is on the line. High Shannon.

199
00:14:43,879 --> 00:14:48,320
No, Hello, high Shannon Texas. Mike, why don't you give

200
00:14:48,320 --> 00:14:54,639
Shannon a yeeha? She's too shy
to ask for it, but you know,

201
00:14:54,720 --> 00:14:56,799
we know you wanted one. Shannon. Okay, Yes, thank you.

202
00:14:58,759 --> 00:15:01,960
He's from Texas, you know.
Yes, he's got on his spurs

203
00:15:01,960 --> 00:15:05,879
and everything, and he brought and
he brought a lasso and he's gonna rope

204
00:15:05,879 --> 00:15:11,159
some doughgies if any Dogi's should happen
to show up here. Wow, well

205
00:15:11,159 --> 00:15:18,000
how does that song go? Save
a horse? Were at a cowboy?

206
00:15:15,320 --> 00:15:22,639
Y? Okay? Anyway? Yes? Yeah? What can we do for

207
00:15:22,720 --> 00:15:24,360
Ashanna? Nothing. I just wanted
to say, have a good show,

208
00:15:24,600 --> 00:15:31,960
because I forgot something's happening to me
too. I don't know, no,

209
00:15:31,080 --> 00:15:39,600
I mean I did notice, so
uh when you played that part. And

210
00:15:39,639 --> 00:15:46,480
it's nice because I don't have all
the outlets that you all have to see.

211
00:15:48,159 --> 00:15:50,000
It's like someone's growth sitting what they've
done, and like that, you

212
00:15:50,039 --> 00:15:56,480
know, Diane finds standing there.
They sounded like a remarkable woman. The

213
00:15:56,639 --> 00:16:03,519
thing is is I mean, I'm
not I'm doing it now, I'm not

214
00:16:03,600 --> 00:16:08,600
being rude, but is everybody dancing
around? Did she have like all samis

215
00:16:08,639 --> 00:16:14,679
or dementia? Something not known?
I'm not sure what her actual cause of

216
00:16:14,720 --> 00:16:18,600
death was, do you know Texas
Mike Well, no, when when when

217
00:16:18,600 --> 00:16:22,480
they when you played the bit at
the beginning, it said her decline.

218
00:16:22,919 --> 00:16:26,799
Yeah, he believed that. Woman
said to say, I, well,

219
00:16:26,799 --> 00:16:30,559
she had had she had had shingles
and then she was out for a long

220
00:16:30,639 --> 00:16:34,679
time recovering from that. But I
think there was there was something else going

221
00:16:34,720 --> 00:16:38,279
on. And then when she came
back she was in a wheelchair with which

222
00:16:38,320 --> 00:16:42,200
again at her age is not not
shocking. But she definitely was in cognitive

223
00:16:42,240 --> 00:16:48,240
decline and she may very well have
had dementia. She had Mikey. Mikey

224
00:16:48,240 --> 00:16:52,440
found the hang on Shan and Mikey
found the cause of death or not Back

225
00:16:52,480 --> 00:16:59,759
in March twenty twenty fight she was
Dinosh was pop wise and then she's having

226
00:16:59,840 --> 00:17:08,119
for the complications of the single which
Affection including n nc plat twice and Wednesday

227
00:17:08,279 --> 00:17:11,519
Hunt syndrome, which the way to
have would turned back to the Senate.

228
00:17:12,920 --> 00:17:19,599
What syndrome Wimsey Hunt? Okay,
I'm not familiar. Well actually I feel

229
00:17:19,640 --> 00:17:22,839
like I might have heard of that, but I'm not. I'm not sure

230
00:17:22,839 --> 00:17:26,000
exactly what it is, but never
heard of that. It sounds a good

231
00:17:26,079 --> 00:17:29,640
name for a band, but uh, hey, you get you get to

232
00:17:29,759 --> 00:17:32,720
ninety years old, you know,
is some things are gonna go wrong.

233
00:17:32,799 --> 00:17:37,160
But but she got to ninety.
Good for her, you know, good

234
00:17:37,160 --> 00:17:40,359
for her. I mean, I
just I just didn't know, you know,

235
00:17:41,480 --> 00:17:48,440
what it was. And I don't
know what I'm trying to say.

236
00:17:48,680 --> 00:17:52,720
You know, the stigma comes when
people don't want to talk about something or

237
00:17:52,839 --> 00:17:56,960
just kind of want to hide it
or put it away. I don't know.

238
00:17:56,720 --> 00:18:03,720
I don't know if it's making sense, and I don't really care to

239
00:18:03,839 --> 00:18:11,119
people that to the haters, whatever
did you Stephen? The Sorry? What

240
00:18:11,119 --> 00:18:15,240
what is DJ Stephen? The Facebook? I haven't seen him yet, although

241
00:18:15,279 --> 00:18:17,799
that doesn't mean he's not in there. He might be in there and I

242
00:18:17,839 --> 00:18:21,799
just haven't seen him. He's back
from New York, Yes, yes,

243
00:18:21,960 --> 00:18:25,480
yeah, yes, okay, so
you guys have a good night tonight.

244
00:18:25,599 --> 00:18:30,720
And Police has ruined music for me. Oh no, how did he do

245
00:18:30,759 --> 00:18:34,839
that? Damn you Police ruining music
for Shannon. No, no, because

246
00:18:34,920 --> 00:18:41,759
now and I said, okay,
I'm gonna remember this. Oh I heard

247
00:18:41,759 --> 00:18:48,119
it because I hear all the other
songs in the songs now. I mean

248
00:18:48,160 --> 00:18:52,240
I heard him before because then heard
the beginning of a song and saying,

249
00:18:52,279 --> 00:18:55,119
oh it's and then it would be
something else. All right, let's let's

250
00:18:55,119 --> 00:18:57,799
clarify for the audience what you're talking
about. So I love policy, so

251
00:18:57,799 --> 00:19:02,400
so recently on retros Spectrum Radio,
for three weeks in a row, we

252
00:19:02,440 --> 00:19:03,880
did. I just want to clarify, Shannon for the audience what what you're

253
00:19:03,880 --> 00:19:07,480
referring to, because because I know
what you mean. But but but the

254
00:19:07,519 --> 00:19:11,000
audience might not know the context.
So some of them, I'm sure.

255
00:19:11,000 --> 00:19:15,359
But so the last few weeks on
Retrospectrum Radio, because every week Paul picks

256
00:19:15,359 --> 00:19:18,759
a theme for the show, and
the theme has been song plagiarisms and people

257
00:19:18,799 --> 00:19:23,839
getting sued for copying other songs and
this and that, and I am probably

258
00:19:23,920 --> 00:19:29,240
the one out of everybody on the
show, I'm the one who most often

259
00:19:29,359 --> 00:19:34,240
says not guilty when someone is accused
of plagiarizing a song, because there are

260
00:19:34,599 --> 00:19:41,440
many many songs. Well, there
are many many chord progressions and phrasings and

261
00:19:41,440 --> 00:19:47,240
so forth that show up in many
different songs in pop music. And so

262
00:19:47,799 --> 00:19:51,200
and by pop music, I mean, I don't mean specifically pop, I

263
00:19:51,240 --> 00:19:53,880
mean just broadly. I'm using the
term very broadly, rock everything, everything

264
00:19:53,920 --> 00:20:00,880
that's popular. So if you if
you really listen carefully, you'll you'll hear

265
00:20:02,200 --> 00:20:04,680
you'll hear the same You'll hear the
same chords, the same notes in the

266
00:20:04,720 --> 00:20:10,480
same order, in many different songs. So you have to kind of allow

267
00:20:10,640 --> 00:20:12,759
for that a little bit. And
some of these and by the way,

268
00:20:12,799 --> 00:20:17,440
a lot of these instances, and
a lot of these instances the plaintiffs won

269
00:20:18,000 --> 00:20:21,759
when personally I don't think they should
have won, or they settled out of

270
00:20:21,799 --> 00:20:26,279
court or whatever. Now some of
them. Uh, there's also examples where,

271
00:20:26,319 --> 00:20:30,920
for example, the band I think
it's called Spirit they sue led Zeppelin

272
00:20:30,960 --> 00:20:33,880
over Stairway to Heaven. They actually
lost, and I think they should have

273
00:20:33,920 --> 00:20:38,960
won because Zeppelin. Notice respect to
Zeppelin, I'm a fan, but the

274
00:20:38,960 --> 00:20:45,440
most plagiaristic band ever. So but
but so that obviously that's I assume,

275
00:20:45,720 --> 00:20:48,000
Shannon, not to speak for you, but I assume that's what you meant.

276
00:20:48,160 --> 00:20:52,200
Now that you're paying attention, you're
noticing that you hear the same chord

277
00:20:52,200 --> 00:20:57,039
progressions and similar melodies and a lot
of different popular songs right right before and

278
00:20:59,200 --> 00:21:07,640
I one one of the songs was
got old, I think, And and

279
00:21:07,960 --> 00:21:11,119
I'm gonna sorry pat myself on the
back because the minute I heard the beginning

280
00:21:11,319 --> 00:21:18,480
of Salty Dog, I knew the
song last Friday come along, but didn't

281
00:21:18,519 --> 00:21:22,960
they also sing got a little change
in my pocket, go on, jingle

282
00:21:22,000 --> 00:21:26,519
ling ling, call you you know
what I'm talking about? Oh that's uh

283
00:21:26,680 --> 00:21:30,279
Georgia Satellites, Keep your answer yourself? Okay, Well, at any rate,

284
00:21:30,319 --> 00:21:33,519
I heard a little rip of Zach
and another song what I can't think

285
00:21:33,519 --> 00:21:37,519
of the song, but I said, oh no, I do it all

286
00:21:37,519 --> 00:21:40,440
the time now. Yeah, and
and and I can tell you too,

287
00:21:40,559 --> 00:21:44,160
I haven't. I haven't heard that
song in probably decades, but I know

288
00:21:44,240 --> 00:21:47,039
the song very well. It was
a huge hit. Keep your Answer Yourself

289
00:21:47,039 --> 00:21:51,440
by Georgia Satellites and and even even
to your hands to yourself a salty Dog?

290
00:21:52,279 --> 00:21:53,720
Oh yes, no, you're right. Sorry, Yes, you shouldn't

291
00:21:53,759 --> 00:21:57,559
challenge me on that, Shannon,
But that's okay. You know, you

292
00:21:59,200 --> 00:22:02,799
just have to learn. No,
No, I'm just kidding. Sometimes I'm

293
00:22:03,640 --> 00:22:06,359
the k now, I'm just kidding. Sometimes I get it wrong too.

294
00:22:06,559 --> 00:22:10,319
But no, but even just playing
that song right now, in my mind,

295
00:22:10,640 --> 00:22:15,160
it's like I can pick out parts
of that song that I know I've

296
00:22:15,200 --> 00:22:18,079
definitely heard in other songs because there's
nothing original about the song. I mean,

297
00:22:18,079 --> 00:22:21,799
the lyrics are original, and it's
funny, and it's I'm not knocking

298
00:22:21,839 --> 00:22:25,519
the song, but I'm just saying
the song itself, there's nothing original about

299
00:22:25,599 --> 00:22:30,680
those about that chord progression, that
melody anything, it's it's all come from

300
00:22:30,720 --> 00:22:33,079
other places. It's all been done, Shannon, is the problem. It's

301
00:22:33,079 --> 00:22:40,039
all been done, not really?
But yeah, am I wrong? There

302
00:22:40,039 --> 00:22:45,279
are eight notes, but there's more
notes on other instruments, right, But

303
00:22:45,839 --> 00:22:48,799
no, because Ed Sheeran said there
are eight notes, This always the same

304
00:22:48,880 --> 00:22:52,920
number of notes, Shannon. Yeah, it's it's the combination. But but

305
00:22:52,920 --> 00:22:59,960
but there's just but but there's just
many chord progressions and melodies such a show

306
00:23:00,279 --> 00:23:03,519
a lot. They're just very common. Yeah, and and and you know

307
00:23:03,680 --> 00:23:07,359
like I say, music is something
that should be shared with people, not

308
00:23:07,359 --> 00:23:17,799
not uh competed with or uh just
shared in. The musicians that play the

309
00:23:17,880 --> 00:23:22,559
music do it for that purpose.
I think because they love music, that

310
00:23:22,640 --> 00:23:26,119
doesn't mean they just like one kind
of of the genre. They I like

311
00:23:26,200 --> 00:23:33,279
all kinds. I know Robbio yesterday, I know he know he knew what

312
00:23:33,319 --> 00:23:41,759
I meant when I said four three
three, and that's I'm not gonna pianist

313
00:23:42,160 --> 00:23:48,440
sits at a piano for four minutes
and thirty three seconds in a packed theater

314
00:23:49,440 --> 00:23:55,519
and sits there. He does not
play but four minutes and thirty three seconds,

315
00:23:55,920 --> 00:24:00,319
okay, And everybody on Facebook is
going, well, what's the heck

316
00:24:00,400 --> 00:24:03,960
is the point of that? Well, the point of that is for you

317
00:24:04,200 --> 00:24:12,279
to appreciate what you do and do
not hear or maybe you might start up

318
00:24:12,279 --> 00:24:17,720
a conversation with somebody staying next to
you or oh no, I wouldn't do

319
00:24:17,839 --> 00:24:19,920
that. That would be rude,
That would be rude to the performer.

320
00:24:21,480 --> 00:24:25,839
Everyone should be sitting there in silence. I think they do. But the

321
00:24:25,960 --> 00:24:30,799
purpose But so my point is,
you know, like the Shannon missing you,

322
00:24:30,960 --> 00:24:33,160
Shannon, I'm not a violent person, but if I were in that

323
00:24:33,279 --> 00:24:37,400
situation and somebody started up a conversation
with me while the pianists is sitting there

324
00:24:37,440 --> 00:24:40,480
in silence. I'd be like,
hey, what are you doing? I

325
00:24:40,599 --> 00:24:44,319
might punch that guy in the face. Well, you know, I don't

326
00:24:44,319 --> 00:24:45,920
know if it ever happened either,
I wouldn't really punch him in the face,

327
00:24:48,680 --> 00:24:52,079
but I might grab and twist something. I actually wouldn't even do that.

328
00:24:52,880 --> 00:24:56,599
I'd probably just nod politely, because
that's kind of what I do in

329
00:24:56,640 --> 00:25:02,000
this situation like that. I'm sorry, Shannon, what you cry. I

330
00:25:02,039 --> 00:25:04,400
don't know what you said earlier,
but you're crying. I just I don't

331
00:25:04,440 --> 00:25:07,960
know. I don't know what I
said either, Shannon, I have a

332
00:25:07,039 --> 00:25:12,559
neurological condition. I can't remember you. You just come out with some hum

333
00:25:12,680 --> 00:25:18,200
dingers. Sometimes it is funny hum
dingers, hum dingers I heard. I've

334
00:25:18,240 --> 00:25:26,359
heard that term before nineteen eighties,
six or I don't know. I can't

335
00:25:26,359 --> 00:25:32,000
think of the other words. But
anyway, I mean, I'll be missing

336
00:25:32,039 --> 00:25:36,279
you by p Diddy whoever it was, Well, it was, of course,

337
00:25:36,359 --> 00:25:38,720
it's from every breath you take.
By the police, and then yes,

338
00:25:38,839 --> 00:25:41,960
yes he did, he used it. However, the beat is from

339
00:25:42,440 --> 00:25:48,359
the police. None of the words
are from the police, right, so

340
00:25:48,720 --> 00:25:52,160
well, wait a minute, no, part of it. Well, but

341
00:25:52,720 --> 00:25:59,279
part part of it is sort of
no the every because in Diddy's version he

342
00:25:59,400 --> 00:26:03,000
said they they say they sing in
the chorus every step I take, every

343
00:26:03,079 --> 00:26:07,119
move I make, I'll be missing
you. So so the lyrics are similar

344
00:26:07,200 --> 00:26:11,000
in the chorus, but the verses
are completely different, obviously because Diddy is

345
00:26:11,079 --> 00:26:18,839
rapping, or his version of it
and actually a fun fact or not fun

346
00:26:18,000 --> 00:26:26,039
at all. But and Rule wrote
a book titled Every Perth You Take,

347
00:26:26,960 --> 00:26:33,160
and it was requested by the woman
Strode about being murdered. In other words,

348
00:26:34,920 --> 00:26:37,480
the woman was so afraid of her
husband or whatever. She knew he

349
00:26:37,599 --> 00:26:41,039
was going to the killer. And
she told one of her friends, if

350
00:26:42,759 --> 00:26:48,119
something ever happens to me, you
know, I think she had said,

351
00:26:48,480 --> 00:26:52,759
you know, get in touch with
Dan Ruler or whatever, and it was

352
00:26:52,839 --> 00:26:56,000
every Perth You Take, that's the
book. I did not know if you

353
00:26:56,160 --> 00:27:00,759
do that. And she also has
you Belong to Me another book. See,

354
00:27:00,839 --> 00:27:06,079
now, that's that's not considered plagiarism, right, and ad to use

355
00:27:06,880 --> 00:27:10,759
a title that is not plagiarism,
No, I would say no, and

356
00:27:10,920 --> 00:27:18,279
you never hear the same unless Joe
Biden did it? Uh? Two books?

357
00:27:18,359 --> 00:27:22,079
Can have you never hear two songs
though, that have the same name?

358
00:27:22,960 --> 00:27:25,880
Sure you do. Lots of songs
have the same name. You can't

359
00:27:26,279 --> 00:27:29,440
do you I don't know. I
didn't think it out, But lots of

360
00:27:29,519 --> 00:27:34,160
songs have the same name dreaming.
There's probably a million songs could just call

361
00:27:34,279 --> 00:27:38,079
dreaming or dreaming for example, just
one example. Oh, lots of songs

362
00:27:38,119 --> 00:27:42,240
have the same name, Shannon.
Oh, and just just for the record,

363
00:27:42,400 --> 00:27:47,400
unless for the record. That's a
good pun because you're talking about songs

364
00:27:47,440 --> 00:27:55,559
on music. Yes, there's a
weird song record It says I'm not going

365
00:27:55,599 --> 00:28:00,440
to sing it, but record player. And anyway, I forgot to say

366
00:28:00,480 --> 00:28:07,799
to some of the sits damn all? Whatever? What was I saying?

367
00:28:08,440 --> 00:28:14,039
I have no idea? You were
saying attention, Oh you're neural, Sorry

368
00:28:14,240 --> 00:28:18,599
Texas, Mike, were you listening? Oh, he does off, Texas.

369
00:28:18,640 --> 00:28:26,839
Mike was adjusting his spurs. Yes, Now is it a lasso or

370
00:28:26,960 --> 00:28:32,480
is it a lariat? Wow?
So okay, what's the difference between that

371
00:28:32,480 --> 00:28:38,039
and lariat? Now? I said, no, I can't hear him.

372
00:28:38,039 --> 00:28:44,039
What I can tell you he uses
a lasso to rope some doughgies. But

373
00:28:44,599 --> 00:28:48,480
the lariat is one of the moves
he used to use when he was in

374
00:28:48,519 --> 00:28:52,440
the ring because as you know,
uh Texas Mike of course a former a

375
00:28:52,680 --> 00:28:57,680
WA tag team champion with black Jack
Mulligan in the late nineteen seventies. Okay,

376
00:28:57,759 --> 00:29:03,079
great, but it a lariat is
also something used with horses and stuff.

377
00:29:03,759 --> 00:29:07,920
M isn't it. I don't know, is it. I have no

378
00:29:07,000 --> 00:29:10,640
idea, honestly, have no idea. When I hear the word lariat,

379
00:29:10,759 --> 00:29:12,440
I just think of the wrestling move, which is really just a kind of

380
00:29:12,480 --> 00:29:15,240
a clothes line. I don't know
why it has its own Yeah, I

381
00:29:15,319 --> 00:29:18,880
just I just remember the pile driver
or the Oh well, we don't talk

382
00:29:18,920 --> 00:29:22,240
about that word, shan. And
that's that's for the other show. Sorry,

383
00:29:23,079 --> 00:29:26,079
he has some and she's okay,
all right, Well you guys have

384
00:29:26,119 --> 00:29:30,319
a good night, and tell I
love all of you guys. All right,

385
00:29:30,400 --> 00:29:32,680
Shannon, Oh that's what it is. Fun fact, I don't know

386
00:29:32,680 --> 00:29:36,279
if my calendar is wrong. Peter
thought it was a pull moon last night.

387
00:29:37,400 --> 00:29:41,599
My calendar says this tonight. Oh
right, think see it because of

388
00:29:41,640 --> 00:29:45,759
the clouds that guy, Peter White
he's always getting the moon wrong. All

389
00:29:45,839 --> 00:29:48,799
right, Shannon, Well, what
are you gonna do? Well, I'm

390
00:29:48,839 --> 00:29:52,319
just saying there's gonna be some excitement
because it's a pull moon tonight. Oh,

391
00:29:52,720 --> 00:29:56,359
there will be excitement on retro Spectrum
radio with police. All right,

392
00:29:56,599 --> 00:29:59,000
all right, Shannon, by all
right, bye bye, all right.

393
00:29:59,240 --> 00:30:03,000
I had to to make sure to
pull the fader down before she hangs up,

394
00:30:03,039 --> 00:30:04,680
because lately when Shannon hangs up,
it's a very loud click, and

395
00:30:04,759 --> 00:30:11,519
it's like, wow, jeez,
we have a we have a call.

396
00:30:11,799 --> 00:30:17,480
Hi. Welcome to Matt Connerton unleashed. Who's this Good afternoon, Matt.

397
00:30:18,160 --> 00:30:22,240
Oh, it's Eric Pilcher. Yes, I'm on my lunch break and thought

398
00:30:22,279 --> 00:30:26,359
I would call and personally thank you
for the kind words you said earlier.

399
00:30:26,720 --> 00:30:30,079
Oh yeah, no, I mean
it, dude. I mean the way

400
00:30:30,160 --> 00:30:32,799
I love the new review and you
really have, you really have come a

401
00:30:32,880 --> 00:30:36,920
long way with it, so I
think it's great. Well, I mean,

402
00:30:37,119 --> 00:30:40,759
you know, I know it's not
everyone's cup of tea, and there

403
00:30:40,880 --> 00:30:45,599
have been some people who don't understand
why we dedicated a month to George A.

404
00:30:45,759 --> 00:30:52,160
Romero, But I make that decision. Well in you as well,

405
00:30:52,480 --> 00:30:57,799
By the way. Well, I
guess by some people you mean John Hopwood.

406
00:31:00,759 --> 00:31:06,720
Yes, my good friend John Hopwood
is not a fan of George A.

407
00:31:06,880 --> 00:31:12,079
Romero. Right, well that's his
Uh, that's his prerogative. Yes,

408
00:31:12,359 --> 00:31:18,559
but no, I actually have been
listening and I'm having a really bad

409
00:31:18,680 --> 00:31:22,000
day at work today. Hearing those
kind words really help. So thank you,

410
00:31:22,160 --> 00:31:25,319
sir. Oh well, I'm glad
that helps. And I'm sorry you're

411
00:31:25,319 --> 00:31:30,279
having a bad day at work.
Uh. It's Friday and people are going

412
00:31:30,400 --> 00:31:34,119
to pay their bills and they realize
their cable bill is high. Oh so

413
00:31:36,039 --> 00:31:40,119
I get the brunt of it.
Oh, that's that's unfortunate. Are you

414
00:31:40,200 --> 00:31:42,279
able to do anything for them when
they complain that their bill is high?

415
00:31:42,400 --> 00:31:47,680
Like? Do you have authority to
lower their bills? Some situational? I

416
00:31:47,759 --> 00:31:51,200
mean, we have promotional offers,
we can put them in. I can

417
00:31:51,279 --> 00:31:56,240
give loyalty credits. Possibly, there
are there are things I can do.

418
00:31:57,960 --> 00:32:05,519
But everyone once more, Yeah,
I mean, and it's like, well,

419
00:32:05,680 --> 00:32:09,839
I mean we are a business and
have to look at what's best for

420
00:32:10,000 --> 00:32:15,200
business, right right? Do you? Uh? But but do you?

421
00:32:16,359 --> 00:32:20,039
I don't know if you want to
answer this, but so if not,

422
00:32:20,200 --> 00:32:23,519
I understand, But I am curious
because I've never had a job like that

423
00:32:23,680 --> 00:32:30,680
exactly, Like, if if does
does how the person treat Let me put

424
00:32:30,720 --> 00:32:34,720
it this way, if a person
is nice, are you asking if the

425
00:32:34,839 --> 00:32:37,839
person is rude to me, am
I less inclined to do something for them?

426
00:32:38,279 --> 00:32:40,240
Yeah? I was trying. I
was trying to come up with a

427
00:32:40,319 --> 00:32:45,640
I don't know why I was trying
to be I know, I don't know

428
00:32:45,720 --> 00:32:47,079
why. I don't know why I
was trying to be so polite about it.

429
00:32:47,160 --> 00:32:52,319
I will reference the old. The
old say you kill more flies,

430
00:32:52,720 --> 00:33:00,160
you attract more flies with honey than
you do vinegar. Yes, so,

431
00:33:00,759 --> 00:33:07,440
And attitude dictates results, and you
can read into that as much as you

432
00:33:07,559 --> 00:33:09,759
want. Yeah, no, I
think that makes sense. I mean,

433
00:33:09,839 --> 00:33:15,799
that's that's really I'm always amazed that
more people don't understand that. Like like

434
00:33:15,920 --> 00:33:20,160
whenever I see somebody giving somebody a
hard time, uh, you know,

435
00:33:20,319 --> 00:33:23,160
in some sort of a customer service
situation, it's like, uh, you

436
00:33:23,279 --> 00:33:28,079
know, uh, this individual,
they're a human being too. They'll probably

437
00:33:28,119 --> 00:33:30,559
be more helpful to you if you
are nice to them instead of you know,

438
00:33:30,720 --> 00:33:35,359
just being like fix this for me. I'm so mad, and I'm

439
00:33:35,400 --> 00:33:40,640
the customer customer call me a money
hungry freak today. That was a new

440
00:33:40,720 --> 00:33:47,920
one. So this customer thinks that
you personally are are profiting from their cable

441
00:33:49,200 --> 00:33:54,039
bill. Apparently. Apparently, I
mean they're the I mean, they were

442
00:33:54,200 --> 00:33:59,599
upset because I'm like, I can't
add services to your account because your account

443
00:33:59,640 --> 00:34:05,839
has been suspend it because you didn't
pay the bill. Yeah, I'm like,

444
00:34:06,039 --> 00:34:08,599
so you would have to pay the
past due balance and then I can

445
00:34:08,679 --> 00:34:12,679
go ahead and do this for you. That's fine, take my money.

446
00:34:12,920 --> 00:34:21,280
Money hungry freak. Oh my god. Oh okay, well, okay,

447
00:34:21,840 --> 00:34:28,360
I mean in my head, I'm
thinking, probably don't want to if I

448
00:34:28,440 --> 00:34:31,639
mean, if you were financially prudent, wouldn't want to add more services when

449
00:34:31,719 --> 00:34:37,159
your services were you didn't pay the
bill. But whatever, that's a good

450
00:34:37,199 --> 00:34:44,239
point there is that. Oh yeah, so it's been a fun day.

451
00:34:44,760 --> 00:34:52,800
Yeah. Well is Friday always like
that? Fridays and Mondays? That makes

452
00:34:52,840 --> 00:34:59,840
sense? Actually, yeah, no, Like Mondays are people calling in because

453
00:35:00,360 --> 00:35:06,480
they are moving in all of this
other stuff and uh, they and their

454
00:35:06,679 --> 00:35:09,639
their services were down all weekend.
They want credits and it's like, okay,

455
00:35:10,119 --> 00:35:15,119
we give you credits if your services
doff. Why wouldn't we write no

456
00:35:15,480 --> 00:35:22,719
dyell about it? I get you're
upset. Yeah, well, like you

457
00:35:22,800 --> 00:35:27,440
said, you get more. What
did oh? Melanie said in the chat

458
00:35:27,559 --> 00:35:30,000
room you can catch a lot of
flies using a cadaver, just saying,

459
00:35:32,039 --> 00:35:36,360
well, I mean I think that
you know, it's very good, it's

460
00:35:36,480 --> 00:35:40,360
awesome. She brought up cadavers with
the film review. Yes, Night of

461
00:35:40,400 --> 00:35:47,960
the Living Dead, Yes, one
of one of my top ten films of

462
00:35:49,039 --> 00:35:52,679
all time. I think I think
I've seen it. Well, I've definitely

463
00:35:52,760 --> 00:35:55,840
seen see as I was listening to
the review, I wasn't sure because you

464
00:35:55,920 --> 00:36:01,719
mentioned in the review spoiler alert about
how there's been other versions of it made

465
00:36:01,800 --> 00:36:05,920
and so forth. So when I
was a kid, I remember watching Night

466
00:36:05,960 --> 00:36:09,599
of the Living Dead with some friends, and I assume it was the original,

467
00:36:10,000 --> 00:36:14,440
but I can't be sure because I
know there's been other versions. What's

468
00:36:14,480 --> 00:36:17,559
it in black and white? I
think so? But it was alone,

469
00:36:17,719 --> 00:36:22,159
it was in black and white.
You watched the original, okay, that

470
00:36:22,320 --> 00:36:27,400
you watch it was in color and
had Tony Todd as Ben. You watched

471
00:36:27,440 --> 00:36:31,159
the remake done by Tom Savini and
John Russo what year was that? What

472
00:36:31,320 --> 00:36:35,760
year was the remake? Do you
remember offhand, I want to say ninety

473
00:36:36,000 --> 00:36:38,840
one, okay, okay, No, then it wasn't there, okay,

474
00:36:38,880 --> 00:36:40,920
So it was the original. It
had to have been the original that we

475
00:36:42,039 --> 00:36:46,320
watched. The thing that sticks in
my mind about it and coloriz Now they

476
00:36:46,400 --> 00:36:51,440
did colorize the original. Oh they
did, because, of course in my

477
00:36:51,599 --> 00:36:59,320
review talks about this as well,
the copyright had passed, so every one

478
00:36:59,400 --> 00:37:04,119
of their mother was releasing it on
VHS. Yeah, and the and they

479
00:37:04,239 --> 00:37:07,760
colorized it. And I've seen the
color version on DVD and it looks absolutely

480
00:37:07,880 --> 00:37:15,480
awful. Oh really, yeah,
it really. You lose a lot of

481
00:37:15,480 --> 00:37:22,119
stuff in translation. Ed Murphy in
the chat room just said, Barbara,

482
00:37:22,239 --> 00:37:23,480
I'm coming to get you. Is
that from Night of the Living Dead?

483
00:37:23,599 --> 00:37:28,119
Oh yeah, okay, Oh,
they're coming to get you, Barbara.

484
00:37:28,599 --> 00:37:31,239
The thing that's that has always stuck
out in my mind about it, because

485
00:37:31,280 --> 00:37:35,480
again I watched it with some friends
when we were kids. Is I just

486
00:37:35,639 --> 00:37:43,000
remember brains the zombies walking around going
to brains, dead man. It's not

487
00:37:44,719 --> 00:37:50,039
no, what movie is that from. I don't know, I've heard it

488
00:37:50,199 --> 00:37:52,960
before, but it's certainly not Night
of the Living Dead. That Ramarro zombies.

489
00:37:53,159 --> 00:37:58,079
Oh didn't talk until Day of the
Dead. Oh, then I'm wrong.

490
00:37:58,599 --> 00:38:00,000
It wasn't Night of the Living Dead. Then then my friends and I

491
00:38:00,159 --> 00:38:07,320
watched, So I'm I'm a lot
of Romero's zombies have only talked once.

492
00:38:07,119 --> 00:38:12,800
Bob in Day of the Dead talked
at the end. Oh, okay,

493
00:38:12,960 --> 00:38:15,400
because there's a movie. Maybe somebody
in the chat room knows. Okay,

494
00:38:15,440 --> 00:38:16,159
So I was wrong. It wasn't
Not of the Living Dead, but it

495
00:38:16,280 --> 00:38:22,400
was. There's a movie involving zombies. It would have come out, probably

496
00:38:22,840 --> 00:38:24,000
had to be sometime. Well,
it could have been any It could have

497
00:38:24,039 --> 00:38:27,360
been in the eighties or even I
don't. I don't know how the movie

498
00:38:27,440 --> 00:38:30,000
was. One of my friends and
I watched it. But but I just

499
00:38:30,280 --> 00:38:36,800
I remember. Oh, Melanie says, Revenge of the Living Dead, Return

500
00:38:36,840 --> 00:38:38,719
of the Living Dead. I think
is the title. Yes, okay,

501
00:38:38,800 --> 00:38:45,760
I touch baits on that. Okay
in my review, that was the unofficial

502
00:38:45,000 --> 00:38:52,039
sequel to it. Oh that's not
George A. Romero, No, that

503
00:38:52,280 --> 00:38:55,920
is John Russo. That did Return
of the Living Dead. Melanie says,

504
00:38:57,079 --> 00:39:00,679
naked redhead dancing on gravestone. Right, I don't, I don't even I

505
00:39:00,719 --> 00:39:07,480
don't even remember that. I should
remember that big film on usays up all

506
00:39:07,599 --> 00:39:09,119
nine. Oh, that might be
where we saw it. I just I

507
00:39:09,239 --> 00:39:14,920
just remember it. They showed it
quite a bit on that. All I

508
00:39:15,039 --> 00:39:19,079
remember is my friends and I having
a lot of fun with with Rainss.

509
00:39:19,760 --> 00:39:24,280
We thought that was really funny.
I do not. There was a long

510
00:39:24,440 --> 00:39:29,360
period of time, because of my
love and adoration for George A. Romero,

511
00:39:30,199 --> 00:39:35,280
that I hated Return of a Living
Debt and refused to watch it because

512
00:39:35,599 --> 00:39:42,400
I'm I was basically damn you John
rousself for doing this. But as I

513
00:39:42,519 --> 00:39:49,199
got older, I softened on it, and I recently rewatched it, and

514
00:39:49,360 --> 00:39:53,360
I'm like, you know, what, if if it wasn't called the unofficial

515
00:39:53,440 --> 00:40:00,960
sequel Tonight of a Living Debt,
it would be a great like eighties Gore

516
00:40:01,159 --> 00:40:12,320
Fast what it would be all things
considered. But because it's often called the

517
00:40:12,440 --> 00:40:16,559
unofficial sequel Tonight of the Living Dead, it really I think it turns a

518
00:40:16,679 --> 00:40:22,920
lot of people off to it.
I feel the best way to enjoy Return

519
00:40:22,960 --> 00:40:27,079
of the Living Dead is to look
at it as its own film, with

520
00:40:27,239 --> 00:40:30,840
its own merit. Yeah, I
mean, because there are sequels Tonight the

521
00:40:30,920 --> 00:40:36,280
Living Dead that you know, while
they don't directly tie into it, they

522
00:40:36,400 --> 00:40:40,800
really have the social commentary that Night
of the Living Dead has so Melanie just

523
00:40:40,920 --> 00:40:45,719
said, he's right. The movie
is Return of the Living Dead, but

524
00:40:45,840 --> 00:40:50,239
the graphic novel it is based on
was Revenge of the Living Dead. That's

525
00:40:50,320 --> 00:40:53,440
interesting, Okay that I didn't know
about the graphic novel, Thank you,

526
00:40:53,599 --> 00:40:58,360
Melanie. I did not. That's
awesome. I don't have to look into

527
00:40:58,400 --> 00:41:00,880
that. Yeah. I wonder why
they change the name for the movie.

528
00:41:01,239 --> 00:41:06,480
Yeah, I mean, probably to
try to tie it in as a sequel

529
00:41:06,559 --> 00:41:10,679
to Yeah, i'd the Living Dead
piggyback on that because when Dawn of the

530
00:41:10,760 --> 00:41:17,000
Dead came out it was very successful. Yeah. That then that I've never

531
00:41:17,119 --> 00:41:22,960
seen. Then Day of the Dead
came out and it wasn't and then George

532
00:41:23,000 --> 00:41:29,239
Abramarro waited twenty years to do the
sequel to Day of the Dead. Uh.

533
00:41:30,159 --> 00:41:36,519
Wow, those are so many of
these movies. It's confusing. It

534
00:41:36,719 --> 00:41:45,719
goes Night Night, Dawn, Day, Land of the Dead, then Diary

535
00:41:45,840 --> 00:41:49,320
of the Dead, then Survival of
the Dead, Survival of the Dead.

536
00:41:51,119 --> 00:41:57,280
What was that Survival of the Dead. That sounds like an oxymoron. It's

537
00:41:57,679 --> 00:42:05,400
not really good, m I asked
from the title. But I guess they're

538
00:42:05,480 --> 00:42:10,320
making his final zombie chapter into a
film. His wife has found a director

539
00:42:10,440 --> 00:42:19,400
and screenwriter to finish it. Ah, and there it's coming. Apocalypse of

540
00:42:19,480 --> 00:42:22,599
the Dead, I believe is the
working title. Oh maybe if they go

541
00:42:23,159 --> 00:42:29,559
through an apocalypse, they'll finally actually
really be dead or find out what actually

542
00:42:29,679 --> 00:42:34,320
caused it. We never know what
caused it. There's a hypothesis that are

543
00:42:34,440 --> 00:42:39,320
radioactive NASA rocket crashing caused this,
but that's just a theory. It's never

544
00:42:40,039 --> 00:42:46,800
throughout all the films, it was
never proven. Oh, Melanie says Land

545
00:42:46,880 --> 00:42:52,159
of the Dead. I dislike zombies
gaining consciousness. Oh, so what do

546
00:42:52,239 --> 00:42:57,119
they become self aware? In that
movie, they're able they figure out how

547
00:42:57,199 --> 00:43:02,480
to use weapons. Oh that sounds
horrible. It is. I mean,

548
00:43:02,639 --> 00:43:05,480
I don't I don't mean, I
don't mean the movie. I don't mean

549
00:43:05,559 --> 00:43:07,039
it means. I don't mean the
movie necessarily sounds bad because of that.

550
00:43:07,320 --> 00:43:10,119
I just mean that sounds horrible.
If a zombie suddenly figures out how to

551
00:43:10,199 --> 00:43:13,920
use a weapon. I mean,
it's bad enough there a zombie they're trying

552
00:43:13,960 --> 00:43:16,119
to eat you or whatever. Now
they have a weapon. That's frightening.

553
00:43:17,320 --> 00:43:22,119
I mean, here's what I see
Mel's point. But in the context of

554
00:43:22,239 --> 00:43:28,079
the film in the message Romero was
trying to convey, it makes sense.

555
00:43:29,119 --> 00:43:35,760
Hmm yeah, yeah. I mean
that's why I love Romero's work is a

556
00:43:35,840 --> 00:43:39,960
majority of this films have that social
commentary. Yeah, that resonates even to

557
00:43:40,119 --> 00:43:46,039
today. M All right, well, I'm gonna have to watch Jenny and

558
00:43:46,039 --> 00:43:49,840
I'll have to watch Not of the
Living Dead now that I realize I've never

559
00:43:49,920 --> 00:43:53,199
actually seen it, and it was
good news it's in public domain. Watching

560
00:43:53,320 --> 00:43:57,119
on YouTube. All this time,
I was thinking that was the movie that

561
00:43:57,199 --> 00:44:02,880
I had watched, but it's not
the movie I watched. Brains. You

562
00:44:02,960 --> 00:44:07,280
know, I might have to watch
Return of the Living Dead tonight in four

563
00:44:07,400 --> 00:44:10,719
K man. Yeah, yeah,
yeah, I might have to when I

564
00:44:10,800 --> 00:44:14,679
get off work. It's a lot
of fun from what I remember, because

565
00:44:14,800 --> 00:44:17,679
what's really great is when it's a
whole lot of zombies and all of the

566
00:44:17,840 --> 00:44:22,400
they're all at the same time going
brains, and it's just like a chorus

567
00:44:22,480 --> 00:44:25,719
of zombies saying brains. It's it's
fun. I mean, maybe Jerry could

568
00:44:25,760 --> 00:44:30,119
put that in one of one of
his new songs. Oh maybe. Oh

569
00:44:30,239 --> 00:44:32,519
that reminds me, by the way, are you aware I don't know if

570
00:44:32,559 --> 00:44:37,679
you've heard this earlier. He invited
Texas Mike to be the newest member of

571
00:44:37,800 --> 00:44:39,840
Jerry and the Scumbags. We're a
quintet. Now, did you know this?

572
00:44:42,400 --> 00:44:45,920
No, but I'm all for it. Texas Mike is the songbird of

573
00:44:45,079 --> 00:44:50,519
his generation. I've often said that
he's uh, he's much too uh.

574
00:44:51,000 --> 00:44:53,960
He's much too humble to accept such
a compliment, certainly, but I've always

575
00:44:53,960 --> 00:45:00,800
said that as well. I appreciate
I believe it. He is the songbird

576
00:45:00,880 --> 00:45:06,320
of his generation. Andy has music
industry experience, having been a manager and

577
00:45:06,559 --> 00:45:09,880
producer of New Affirm of the Spark. Hailing from Greensboro, North Carolina,

578
00:45:12,000 --> 00:45:15,199
I remember a time when he was
supposed to get me ice cream bars.

579
00:45:15,960 --> 00:45:20,519
Yeah that didn't pan out. Yeah
that did not Yeah, but we won't

580
00:45:20,599 --> 00:45:22,320
let that get in the way of
the band. Nope. I still love

581
00:45:22,440 --> 00:45:27,320
Texas Mike, and I love you
too. Eric. Oh, very nice,

582
00:45:27,519 --> 00:45:31,159
Thank you, Texas Mike. Very
nice. Well, Eric, we

583
00:45:31,239 --> 00:45:35,360
should let you. We should let
you go, because in just a couple

584
00:45:35,400 --> 00:45:37,159
of minutes we're gonna get to that
film review. I'm looking forward to sharing

585
00:45:37,199 --> 00:45:42,280
it, but I have to clock
back into work, so I'm sorry.

586
00:45:42,320 --> 00:45:45,320
I took up so much time.
But like I said, I just really

587
00:45:45,360 --> 00:45:50,000
wanted to say thank you. I
mean, you give me the platform so

588
00:45:51,400 --> 00:45:58,079
and get me the opportunity to evolve. And I mean, if Classic Film

589
00:45:58,159 --> 00:46:00,559
Reviews is successful, it's his to
you as it is me, to be

590
00:46:00,719 --> 00:46:05,280
honest. Oh, that's that's being
kind. But but no, I'm very

591
00:46:05,360 --> 00:46:07,159
I'm very happy too, very happy
to do that. And it's a it's

592
00:46:07,159 --> 00:46:12,039
a popular segment with the listeners.

am. Like I said Sunday night, I will be seeing The Exorcist in

600
00:46:43,199 --> 00:46:49,719
theaters for the third time. I
saw it when they re released it in

601
00:46:49,920 --> 00:46:55,599
two thousand. I saw at a
independent theater New Year's Eve of two thousand

602
00:46:55,639 --> 00:47:02,119
and four, and I will be
seeing it again. J Fed says mel

603
00:47:02,239 --> 00:47:06,000
Had a question and I seem to
remember that from the other day in the

604
00:47:06,039 --> 00:47:08,400
chat room, but I don't remember
what it was. Yes, actually Mel

605
00:47:08,559 --> 00:47:14,719
s met to me on messenger and
it could get answered. Ah, very

606

Thank you, Texas my all right bye?

610
00:47:35,239 --> 00:47:40,000
Eric, by all right, that
was our friend Eric Pilcher and very

611
00:47:40,079 --> 00:47:45,760
nice. Oh, Mel just reposted
the question for Eric in the chat room.

612
00:47:45,079 --> 00:47:52,400
Not not something I can read on
the air, certainly, certainly speaking

613
00:47:52,440 --> 00:47:55,039
of the Facebook live chat though.
Let's say hello to everybody in there quickly,

614
00:47:55,039 --> 00:47:59,119
and then we'll and then we will
get to Eric's classic film review of

615
00:47:59,239 --> 00:48:02,559
Night of the Living Dad, a
movie I apparently have never seen. All

616
00:48:02,639 --> 00:48:06,559
this time. I thought, I, oh, we have a question for

617
00:48:06,639 --> 00:48:08,559
you, Texas Mike and the chatroom, Isaac Banks says, Texas Mike,

618
00:48:08,679 --> 00:48:15,800
what's your favorite John Mellencamp song.
I'll get I'll get thank to you on

619
00:48:15,920 --> 00:48:20,519
that. You put me on the
spot there. Yeah, he might not

620
00:48:20,679 --> 00:48:22,960
have one, Isaac Banks, I
can tell you what My favorite John Mellencamp

621
00:48:23,079 --> 00:48:28,119
song is It's Peaceful World, the
duet that he did with India Are,

622
00:48:28,400 --> 00:48:30,760
which I think it's just amaz it's
actually probably I wouldn't put it in my

623
00:48:30,800 --> 00:48:36,679
top ten, but it might be
in my top twenty list of favorite songs

624
00:48:36,840 --> 00:48:38,239
of all time. I love that
song. When I was a kid,

625
00:48:39,239 --> 00:48:42,199
my dad, you know, he
listens to the show. I'm sure he

626
00:48:42,320 --> 00:48:45,679
remembers this. When I was a
kid, I was obsessed with Tumbling Down,

627
00:48:45,119 --> 00:48:50,199
when the Wolves Come Tumbling Down,
and that was I don't even like

628
00:48:50,360 --> 00:48:52,039
that song now if I hear it. But when I was a kid,

629
00:48:52,119 --> 00:48:54,280
for some reason, I loved that
song. And but that was when he

630
00:48:54,400 --> 00:48:58,800
was still John Cougar, because he
was John Cougar, and then he was

631
00:48:58,920 --> 00:49:01,920
John Cougar Mellencamp Camp, and then
he was just John Mellencamp. But he

632
00:49:02,360 --> 00:49:07,679
eventually he dropped the Cougar entirely.

635
00:49:19,639 --> 00:49:23,840

passing of Senator Diane Feinstein. Of California

636
00:49:24,000 --> 00:49:29,280

00:49:53,960 --> 00:49:58,440

644
00:49:58,679 --> 00:50:04,639

646
00:50:12,719 --> 00:50:15,519
to I don't like to leave anybody
out if I can help it. Although

647
00:50:15,559 --> 00:50:22,199
I realized too sometimes when people are
listening on Facebook, but they don't actually

648
00:50:22,880 --> 00:50:25,639
uh speak up in the chat room, I don't necessarily see them. Oh.

649
00:50:25,800 --> 00:50:30,119
Eric Pilcher his favorite is rain on
the Scarecrow. Yeah, that song

650
00:50:30,239 --> 00:50:34,840
I played. It's funny I played
that. I remember playing that on the

651
00:50:34,880 --> 00:50:39,239
show one day because you know,
it's about it's about farmers and this was

652
00:50:39,360 --> 00:50:45,320
back when during the Trump administration,
when a lot of sanctions were being put

653
00:50:46,199 --> 00:50:53,280
on China that we're directly affecting the
agriculture sector here and farmers were really suffering.

654
00:50:53,360 --> 00:50:57,559
That's a whole other subject, but
but I remember playing Rain on the

655
00:50:57,599 --> 00:51:01,079
Scarecrow by Mellencamp for that reason and
specifically in kind of dedicating it to the

656
00:51:01,159 --> 00:51:07,719
farmers who were just getting the hell
beating out of them economically. Miriam Banish

657
00:51:07,719 --> 00:51:10,159
also joins us in the Facebook latch
at Hello, Miriam Oh. Tom Blanchard's

658
00:51:10,159 --> 00:51:14,480
favorite is Little Pink Houses. Yeah, it's a great song, Ain't that

659
00:51:14,639 --> 00:51:19,440
America? For you and me.
I think a lot of people think that

660
00:51:19,480 --> 00:51:21,920
the name of the song is Ain't
That America, but it actually is Pink

661
00:51:21,960 --> 00:51:24,400
Houses. Let's see, all right, Well we are at the top of

662
00:51:24,440 --> 00:51:28,400
the hour. So here's what we're
gonna do. We're gonna take a little

663
00:51:28,760 --> 00:51:30,920
break, We're gonna show some love

664
00:51:30,960 --> 00:51:37,360
there we're going to go directly into
Eric's classic film review, and the subject

665
00:51:37,719 --> 00:51:43,719
is Night of the Living Dead.
As Erica concludes his series of film reviews

666
00:51:43,800 --> 00:51:47,960
in honor of the late director George
A. Romero, and then after that

667
00:51:49,119 --> 00:51:54,840
we'll come back and Isaac Bank says, lonely old night, it's a lonely

668
00:51:54,920 --> 00:51:59,280

yeah, let's uh, let's do that.

671

706
00:56:02,960 --> 00:56:13,480
A Knight with the Dead who cannot
done, a Knight of Total Terror,

707
00:56:22,199 --> 00:56:36,440
Night of the Living Dead. It's
hard to imagine a time when horror films

708
00:56:36,800 --> 00:56:42,760
did not use an element of realism
to strike fear into the hearts of filmgoers.

709
00:56:43,719 --> 00:56:50,079
However, prior to nineteen sixty eight, horror films were old gothic monsters,

710
00:56:50,719 --> 00:56:59,119
aliens in various science enhanced creatures.
That is until a director known for

711
00:56:59,280 --> 00:57:06,639
his work Mister Rogers Neighborhood, would
create the first major independent film that would

712
00:57:06,760 --> 00:57:13,159
change horror forever. Our final film
in this month long tribute to director George

713
00:57:13,199 --> 00:57:19,519
A. Romero is his first film, the nineteen sixty eight release Night of

714
00:57:19,639 --> 00:57:23,639
the Living Dead. In this film, a group of individuals seek refuge in

715
00:57:23,760 --> 00:57:32,119
a farmhouse from beings that have inexplicably
risen from the dead and crave human flesh.

716
00:57:32,920 --> 00:57:39,480
The film stars Duane Jones, Judith
O'Day, Karl Hardeman, Marilyn Eastman,

717
00:57:39,880 --> 00:57:47,360
and Keith Wayne. Despite this film
being our introduction to zombies, it

718
00:57:47,559 --> 00:57:53,960
is also known for being the first
successful independent film. Our next two clips,

719
00:57:54,280 --> 00:58:00,199
George A. Romero explains during a
Toronto Film Festival in two thousand and

720
00:58:00,320 --> 00:58:06,679
five the film success and how losing
the copyright to the film led to it

721
00:58:07,039 --> 00:58:14,679
gaining a stronger following throughout the years, and then Romero will discuss the groundbreaking

722
00:58:14,760 --> 00:58:21,719
decision of casting Dwayne Jones's Ben.
It was groundbreaking because it is the first

723
00:58:21,800 --> 00:58:28,159
American film to have an African American
male be the quote unquote hero of the

724
00:58:28,320 --> 00:58:37,119
film, and a historic tragedy that
enhanced the film's profile. Oh, the

725
00:58:37,239 --> 00:58:44,000
fact is that when the film was
first released, it made money. It

726
00:58:44,119 --> 00:58:50,519
actually it costs US about one hundred
and seventeen thousand, and it made about

727
00:58:50,639 --> 00:58:55,519
seven hundred thousand in the first year
in those drive ins and neighborhood theaters and

728
00:58:55,679 --> 00:58:59,880
you know, blah blah blah,
and we said, wow, this is

729
00:59:00,000 --> 00:59:04,199
an easy business. Then it went
away, I mean just disappeared. And

730
00:59:04,280 --> 00:59:08,840
then one day somebody discovered that there
was no copyright on the film because we

731
00:59:09,039 --> 00:59:14,679
had our title, our original title
was Night of the Flesh Eaters, and

732
00:59:14,840 --> 00:59:17,880
we, stupidly, as young filmmakers, put up put the copyright bug a

733
00:59:17,920 --> 00:59:23,239
little see with the circle around it
on the title on the title card.

734
00:59:23,639 --> 00:59:28,840
And when they changed the title,
that bug came off, and all of

735
00:59:28,880 --> 00:59:30,960
a sudden there was no copyright.
They didn't notice, we didn't notice,

736
00:59:31,000 --> 00:59:34,719
nobody noticed. You know. It
was one of those things that just one

737
00:59:34,760 --> 00:59:37,519
of those the one that got away, and all of a sudden there was

738
00:59:37,559 --> 00:59:44,719
no copyright on the film. So
you know, the moment that people realized

739
00:59:44,760 --> 00:59:51,199
that everybody was selling it on VHS, and you know, everybody could release

740
00:59:51,280 --> 00:59:55,119
it without having to pay any royalties
or anything else. And that's that's really

741
00:59:55,239 --> 00:59:59,960
the journey of that film. Then
all of a sudden, the French discuss

742
01:00:00,039 --> 01:00:07,880
it is a magazine called Kahier the
Cinema, which you may know, wrote

743
01:00:07,920 --> 01:00:16,760
the huge article about it being an
amazing important American cinema And I wasn't thinking

744
01:00:16,800 --> 01:00:22,159
of it as that at all,
but they everyone who was sort of noticing

745
01:00:22,239 --> 01:00:30,000
the film was talking about the racial
issue. And to honest, it wasn't

746
01:00:30,079 --> 01:00:35,239
a racial message at all. In
fact, we were when when we cast

747
01:00:35,599 --> 01:00:40,559
Dwayne Jones, when Dwayne Jones agreed
to do it, we didn't change the

748
01:00:40,639 --> 01:00:45,440
script. And when Jack and I
were writing the script, it was the

749
01:00:45,559 --> 01:00:50,679
guy in our mind was Caucasian and
the same things happened to him. And

750
01:00:50,840 --> 01:00:53,159
people are saying, well, here
come these posse's with the posse with dogs

751
01:00:53,239 --> 01:00:57,559
and going after the black guy.
They were going after the guy when he

752
01:00:57,639 --> 01:01:01,800
was white, And so that was
not our point. Our point was more

753
01:01:01,880 --> 01:01:08,719
than disintegration of society, the inability
to communicate the family, disintegration of the

754
01:01:08,840 --> 01:01:14,000
family unit and that's the stuff that
we were. You just you just picked

755
01:01:14,079 --> 01:01:16,519
him because he was the best actor
you could find. Russ my partner,

756
01:01:16,599 --> 01:01:21,320
and not Russ and not Russ Steiner
and I. We're driving into New York.

757
01:01:21,400 --> 01:01:24,280
We had the first answer print of
this of the film in the trunk

758
01:01:24,360 --> 01:01:29,280
of our car, and driving to
New York, we heard on the radio

759
01:01:29,599 --> 01:01:32,880
that Martin Luther King had been assassinated, and that I think is where the

760
01:01:32,920 --> 01:01:37,920
whole race thing came from. I
mean that that sort of made the film

761
01:01:37,039 --> 01:01:43,719
that much more exotic, or that
much just hearing that lows what you had

762
01:01:43,760 --> 01:01:47,760
in the trunk. Suddenly it changed. I wonder if this has gon to

763
01:01:47,800 --> 01:01:52,679
be good for us. I mean, you know, I hate to say

764
01:01:52,760 --> 01:01:57,119
that, but you know it's obviously
the thing that occurs in this film was

765
01:01:57,280 --> 01:02:04,559
made before the start of the MPAA, the Motion Picture Association of America,

766
01:02:04,800 --> 01:02:09,559
which gave films ratings that we know
today. So Romero was able to use

767
01:02:09,679 --> 01:02:16,719
disturbing realism to depict the zombies.
The people that played the Walking Dead actually

768
01:02:16,960 --> 01:02:23,039
eight cow livers and pig intestines that
were depicted as human entrails. To keep

769
01:02:23,159 --> 01:02:30,079
the realism. Well, that was
groundbreaking make no mistake. What is most

770
01:02:30,199 --> 01:02:35,920
memorable and is still talked about to
this day is the performance of Dwayne Jones.

771
01:02:37,119 --> 01:02:40,800
As we learned in our previous clip, Romero did not cast him because

772
01:02:40,840 --> 01:02:47,119
he was African American, but by
casting him, Romero created a cinematic symbol

773
01:02:47,239 --> 01:02:53,119
for the civil rights movement. In
Jones's performance is what makes Ben that it

774
01:02:53,400 --> 01:02:59,159
brings that symbol the life. Our
next clip is an example of this.

775
01:03:00,079 --> 01:03:06,719
When we first encounter Ben, he
rescues Barbara Judith O'Day from a zombie attack

776
01:03:07,280 --> 01:03:13,920
and brings her into the farmhouse.
Despite society crumbling around him and everyone else

777
01:03:14,039 --> 01:03:21,880
hysterical, Ben keeps his cool in
this scene shows what makes him a strong

778
01:03:22,199 --> 01:03:29,360
hero, no matter his color.
He grabbed me and he ripped me.

779
01:03:30,599 --> 01:03:37,280
He helped me, and he ripped
in my clothes. Oh, I screamed,

780
01:03:37,440 --> 01:03:43,119
Johnny, Johnny, help me,
Oh help me, And he wouldn't

781
01:03:43,199 --> 01:03:50,679
let me go. And then Johnny
came and he ran and he fought this

782
01:03:50,840 --> 01:04:00,280
man, and I got so gread, I ran, I ran, and

783
01:04:00,480 --> 01:04:13,880
Johnny didn't come. We've got we
have to wait for Johnny. Maybe we

784
01:04:14,079 --> 01:04:17,920
better go out and get him.
We have to go out and get Johnny,

785
01:04:18,559 --> 01:04:23,960
he's out there. Please, don't
you hear me. We've got to

786
01:04:24,039 --> 01:04:30,039
go out and get him. Please, we have got to go get John

787
01:04:30,840 --> 01:04:35,159
Please help me. Please. Don't
you know what's going on? After?

788
01:04:35,239 --> 01:04:39,639
This is my Sunday School kick man. Don't you understand my brother is alone?

789
01:04:40,360 --> 01:05:18,480
Your brother is dead. My brother
is not dead. O. With

790
01:05:18,760 --> 01:05:26,280
the casting of Jones, how he
played the strong hero role, it would

791
01:05:26,320 --> 01:05:33,000
be accurate to assume that this was
about the civil rights movement, but that

792
01:05:33,119 --> 01:05:38,880
would be too simple for the great
mind of Romero. He has said,

793
01:05:38,960 --> 01:05:43,880
this film is about the crumbling of
society, as we have heard earlier.

794
01:05:44,320 --> 01:05:48,320
Through further research, I found that
during the Vietnam War, America had lost

795
01:05:48,480 --> 01:05:54,599
the idea of heroes. That also, during the sixties, the ideas of

796
01:05:54,800 --> 01:06:00,320
families, values, and morals had
crumbled and people were fighting against the new

797
01:06:00,440 --> 01:06:06,159
ideas that others presented. That ultimately
is what Ramera wanted to depict in this

798
01:06:06,400 --> 01:06:14,119
film. Our final clip is a
great example of this. When faced with

799
01:06:14,360 --> 01:06:20,719
survival in the farmhouse, Ben encounters
Harry Cooper, his wife, their daughter,

800
01:06:21,639 --> 01:06:28,760
and a young married couple. Harry
Cooper is an older man that fights

801
01:06:28,880 --> 01:06:35,440
Ben for leadership and control over the
farmhouse. This final clip shows this fight

802
01:06:35,880 --> 01:06:44,719
between the old rules of society,
that being Cooper and the new world ideas,

803
01:06:45,119 --> 01:06:50,440
that being Ben and how that conflict
is constant and even when both of

804
01:06:50,480 --> 01:06:57,360
their survivals are on the line,
they cannot get past this internal struggle.

805
01:07:00,679 --> 01:07:02,480
That's the seller. It's the safest
place. And then you didn't hear the

806
01:07:02,559 --> 01:07:05,199
rackets were patting up there? How
would we supposed to know what was going

807
01:07:05,280 --> 01:07:09,119
on? Could have been those things? For all we knew that girl was

808
01:07:09,159 --> 01:07:12,440
screaming it. Sure you must go
with a girl's screaming sounds like those things

809
01:07:12,480 --> 01:07:15,320
don't make any noise from anybody,
know, somebody's been need to help them.

810
01:07:15,519 --> 01:07:16,639
Look, it's kind of hard to
hear what's going on from down then.

811
01:07:17,159 --> 01:07:19,760
We thought we could hear screams,
man, or all we knew that.

812
01:07:19,880 --> 01:07:23,480
Couldn't bet those things were in the
house after it, and you wouldn't

813
01:07:23,480 --> 01:07:26,519
come up as hell. Well,
if there were more of the racket sounded

814
01:07:26,559 --> 01:07:28,800
like the place was being ripped apart, How were we supposed to know what

815
01:07:28,960 --> 01:07:31,000
was going on? Now we have
in place. You just got a fifty

816
01:07:31,000 --> 01:07:34,480
same You couldn't hear from down there
nowbviously it sound like the places being written

817
01:07:34,519 --> 01:07:36,760
apart. It would be nice if
you get your story straight. Man.

818
01:07:38,000 --> 01:07:42,280
All right, now, you tell
me I'm not going to take that kind

819
01:07:42,280 --> 01:07:45,239
of a chance where we got a
safe place. We look into a safe

820
01:07:45,280 --> 01:07:47,440
place, and you're telling us we
got to risk our lives just because somebody

821
01:07:47,519 --> 01:07:50,960
might need help. Yeah, something
like that. All right, why don't

822
01:07:50,960 --> 01:07:56,079
we settle this stir? We came
out. Okay, we're here now,

823
01:07:56,199 --> 01:07:59,239
I said, guess we all go
back downstairs before any of those things find

824
01:07:59,239 --> 01:08:00,559
out we're in here. They can't
get in here, car, We can

825
01:08:00,639 --> 01:08:03,360
get up the whole place boarded up. Yeah, mood steady, all the

826
01:08:03,400 --> 01:08:06,960
few spots upstairs, they won't be
hard to fix. You already save the

827
01:08:08,079 --> 01:08:11,440
seller's gonna say us place. I'm
telling you they can't get in here.

828
01:08:11,599 --> 01:08:15,199
And I'm telling you those things turned
over our car. We were damn lucky

829
01:08:15,239 --> 01:08:17,039
to get away at all. Now
you tell me those those things can't get

830
01:08:17,079 --> 01:08:23,359
through this lousy power wood, this
wife and kids downstairs, Any kids heard

831
01:08:23,399 --> 01:08:27,119
him? Yeah? Well, I
still think we're better off up here.

832
01:08:28,720 --> 01:08:30,720
We could strengthen everything up, mister
Cooper. With all of us working,

833
01:08:30,800 --> 01:08:33,279
we can fix this place up in
no time. We have everything we need

834
01:08:33,399 --> 01:08:36,880
up here. We can take all
that stuff downstairs with us. And you're

835
01:08:36,960 --> 01:08:41,039
really crazy. You know that you
got a million windows up here. All

836
01:08:41,119 --> 01:08:43,840
these windows you're gonna you're gonna make
them strong enough to keep these things outs.

837
01:08:43,920 --> 01:08:45,640
Huh. I told you those things
don't have any strength. I smashed

838
01:08:45,720 --> 01:08:49,000
three up them and pushed another out
the door. Did you hear me when

839
01:08:49,000 --> 01:08:53,600
I told you they turned over our
car or had any good five men could

840
01:08:53,640 --> 01:08:56,640
do that? That's my point.
Only there's nothing to be five or even

841
01:08:56,720 --> 01:08:59,640
ten. There's gonna be twenty thirty, maybe a hundred of those things.

842
01:08:59,800 --> 01:09:00,880
And as soon as they know we're
here, this place is gonna be calling

843
01:09:00,960 --> 01:09:03,560
with him. Well, if there's
happen, many though, probably get us

844
01:09:03,560 --> 01:09:09,920
wherever we are. Look the cellar, the cellar, there's only one door,

845
01:09:10,119 --> 01:09:13,239
right, just one door. That's
all we have to protect. Follow

846
01:09:13,239 --> 01:09:15,479
and I fixed it's lunch and boards
from the inside. But I to get

847
01:09:15,520 --> 01:09:18,399
all these windows right. We never
know where they we're gonna hit us next.

848
01:09:18,800 --> 01:09:21,640
You got a point, mister Cooper. But down in the cellar there's

849
01:09:21,640 --> 01:09:25,920
no place to run to. I
mean, if they did get in there'd

850
01:09:25,920 --> 01:09:29,359
be no back exit. We'd be
done for. Yeah, we can get

851
01:09:29,399 --> 01:09:30,880
out of here if we have to. And we got windows to see what's

852
01:09:30,920 --> 01:09:34,920
going on outside, but down there
but no windows. If a rescue party

853
01:09:35,000 --> 01:09:39,000
did come, we didn't even know
it. But the seller is the strongest

854
01:09:39,079 --> 01:09:43,760
place. Cellars a death's draft.
I don't know who's the cooper. I

855
01:09:43,840 --> 01:09:47,840
think he's run. You know how
many's out there? Many six or seven?

856
01:09:48,039 --> 01:09:53,800
Club YouTube can do whatever you like. I am going back down to

857
01:09:53,880 --> 01:09:57,760
the cellar, and you better decide
as I'm gonna board up that door and

858
01:09:57,800 --> 01:10:00,359
I'm not gonna un luck and again, no matter what happens, this film

859
01:10:00,640 --> 01:10:05,640
is a monumental achievement for so many
reasons. I could go on and on

860
01:10:05,800 --> 01:10:12,760
about the first it presented, the
starter Romero's film career, the great performances,

861
01:10:13,720 --> 01:10:18,479
and so much more. However,
my words do not do it justice.

862
01:10:19,520 --> 01:10:26,239
This film is frightening, disturbing,
in fear inducing. The black and

863
01:10:26,399 --> 01:10:31,039
white it is shot in only enhances
that to this day, its scenes and

864
01:10:31,239 --> 01:10:38,560
images leave a mark on a viewer
that you cannot forget. In two days,

865
01:10:39,079 --> 01:10:45,039
this film celebrates its fifty fifth anniversary
of being released. It has had

866
01:10:45,199 --> 01:10:50,600
five direct sequels, two remakes,
and even an unofficial sequel done by the

867
01:10:50,760 --> 01:10:58,119
co writer of this film called Return
of the Living Dead, and its influence

868
01:10:58,279 --> 01:11:05,039
continues to this day in comic books, movies, and video games. That

869
01:11:05,279 --> 01:11:11,279
influence is not felt just with the
creation of zombies, but it is seen

870
01:11:11,359 --> 01:11:15,640
in filmmakers, actors, in those
just getting their start in cinema. It

871
01:11:15,760 --> 01:11:21,000
provides a reminder that all you need
is a will and division, because that

872
01:11:21,239 --> 01:11:27,399
is what carried George A. Romero
to his status as a master of cinema.

873
01:11:28,800 --> 01:11:33,079
I hope you join me next Friday
when we start our Halloween slate of

874
01:11:33,159 --> 01:11:42,279
films with arguably the scariest film ever
made, the late William Friedkins The Exorcist,

875
01:11:43,039 --> 01:11:46,159
and then in two weeks we will
look at the sequel to this film,

876
01:11:46,720 --> 01:11:53,640
George A. Romero's Dawn of the
Dead. To close this week's review,

877
01:11:54,359 --> 01:11:58,279
I would like to present the final
scene of this film, as we

878
01:11:58,479 --> 01:12:05,319
learn of the eight that Matt,
the heroic band, the lone survivor of

879
01:12:05,479 --> 01:12:12,840
the farmhouse for W M n H
and Matt Connerton unleashed. This has been

880
01:12:12,880 --> 01:12:16,439
a classic film review with Eric Pilcher. You drag that out of here,

881
01:12:16,439 --> 01:12:19,319
and throw it on the fire.
Nothing down here, all right, go

882
01:12:19,399 --> 01:12:23,000
ahead, down and give him a
hand. Let's go check out the house

883
01:12:23,039 --> 01:12:30,159
man. Here's something there. I
heard a noise, all right. N

884
01:12:30,319 --> 01:12:36,319
hit him in the head, right
between the eyes. Good shot. Okay,

885
01:12:36,439 --> 01:13:00,439
he's let's go get him. That's
another one for the fire, all

886
01:13:00,520 --> 01:13:06,640
right, said the wagons room directly. I am w m n H rip

887
01:13:06,840 --> 01:13:15,119
the novel side. If you're listening
to w mn H three, get command,

888
01:13:15,239 --> 01:13:51,680
gut, don't get so greenly down
Matzille. Welcome back everybody, as

889
01:13:51,720 --> 01:13:57,079
we cruising our final segment today of

896
01:14:21,279 --> 01:14:26,920
and I believe my dad is on
the phone. Hello, Hello,

897
01:14:27,279 --> 01:14:29,680
is this a Howe Car show.
No, I'm just kidding, Matt.

898
01:14:29,720 --> 01:14:32,079
I know it's you. Oh goodness. Now I can recognize my children even

899
01:14:32,119 --> 01:14:35,800
when they grow up on me.
Yeall, listen, I'm doing this a

900
01:14:35,840 --> 01:14:39,720
little bit blind. You don't have
a musical guest right now, do you?

901
01:14:40,119 --> 01:14:43,840
We do? Not? Oh?
Okay, good? Not good.

902
01:14:43,920 --> 01:14:50,159
But congratulations on all the great musical
guests you have. This week especially was

903
01:14:50,279 --> 01:14:56,600
just fantastical. I really appreciate it, and I know some of my colleagues

904
01:14:57,720 --> 01:15:01,760
appreciate it, and I'm sure you're
worldwide audience does too. I still love

905
01:15:01,840 --> 01:15:06,239
Infinity Vein with that song angel I
gotta write he's an angel I believe.

906
01:15:06,439 --> 01:15:12,079
Yeah, yeah, yeah, that's
but. And there's another band mat from

907
01:15:12,159 --> 01:15:16,359
Germany that you interviewed. Well,
I mean all the interviews have gone well.

908
01:15:16,479 --> 01:15:19,720
I'm very proud of you with that. Thank you. I can't remember

909
01:15:19,760 --> 01:15:24,960
the name of the they were witty
and funny too. The name of the

910
01:15:25,000 --> 01:15:29,399
band. But they have a song
that has a one word name to it.

911
01:15:29,560 --> 01:15:31,640
That's great too. Does that ring
a bell at all? Is it

912
01:15:31,760 --> 01:15:39,439
a Factory of Art? Maybe there
was a three there was a German band

913
01:15:39,520 --> 01:15:42,479
called Factory of Art. But I
think there might have been another German band

914
01:15:42,640 --> 01:15:45,960
too. It's hard to yeah,
keep them all straight. Okay, Yeah,

915
01:15:45,039 --> 01:15:48,399
that's okay. I wrote it down
somewhere, but then I lose my

916
01:15:49,000 --> 01:15:54,319
notes. Yeah that's me. I
got too much going on, you know,

917
01:15:54,439 --> 01:15:58,359
that's a story of my life.
But anyway, just a couple of

918
01:15:58,399 --> 01:16:01,279
things I thought we could do.
The Quiz Day, the True False Quiz

919
01:16:03,239 --> 01:16:06,720
that. Okay, it's fun,
you know, and it's not life or

920
01:16:06,760 --> 01:16:11,479
death or anything like that. It's
just interesting and fun. It's gonna be

921
01:16:11,600 --> 01:16:15,479
on basically philosophy and philosophers. But
there's a you'll see, there's a key

922
01:16:15,640 --> 01:16:18,800
in it. If you can.
I don't want to give it away where

923
01:16:19,279 --> 01:16:26,520
even though you and Mike or the
audience may not be familiar with some of

924
01:16:26,600 --> 01:16:30,600
this, you'll be able to pick
it up. I think. So.

925
01:16:30,039 --> 01:16:35,800
I just the other thing that was
I wanted to mention. You know.

926
01:16:35,920 --> 01:16:40,159
I love history, you know that, and I love philosophy and theology,

927
01:16:40,239 --> 01:16:48,640
but in literature, I love bell
Litt and I just wanted to And by

928
01:16:48,680 --> 01:16:54,399
the way, Matt, you know, sometimes when I text you, I'm

929
01:16:54,479 --> 01:17:00,079
concerned about something that's been said that
may be inaccurate or parochial are less than

930
01:17:00,399 --> 01:17:06,159
fair given the facts and given logic
and critical thinking. But I would never

931
01:17:06,399 --> 01:17:13,560
call into your show and critique anyone
I disagree with like that. You know

932
01:17:13,680 --> 01:17:15,920
I would you know that about me? I would never do that, And

933
01:17:16,199 --> 01:17:26,479
I would say too parenthetically your text
to me about something that I was concerned

934
01:17:26,479 --> 01:17:30,880
about. And I'm not going to
mention the name of the person whom I

935
01:17:30,960 --> 01:17:35,159
admire tremendously, but you know who
I'm talking about, who was a complex,

936
01:17:35,680 --> 01:17:41,640
a complex person. But here's the
thing. If he grew in office,

937
01:17:41,680 --> 01:17:44,399
and I'm gonna tell a little no, I can't do that either.

938
01:17:44,640 --> 01:17:46,159
I was going to tell you a
little joke about him about it. I

939
01:17:46,279 --> 01:17:51,000
can't do that because I know I
like I could tell it with you know

940
01:17:51,039 --> 01:17:54,960
what I could do. I could
tell it without saying who it is.

941
01:17:55,359 --> 01:17:58,640
I just say it's the leader of
it was a leader of a country.

942
01:17:58,680 --> 01:18:01,439
How about well you could I why
not say who it is? What's it

943
01:18:01,520 --> 01:18:06,199
matter? Okay? As long as
I don't. I don't want to offend

944
01:18:06,279 --> 01:18:11,359
anybody. I don't want ever to. I may disagree with a guest that

945
01:18:11,520 --> 01:18:14,680
comes on, for example, Yeah, well I may agree with them.

946
01:18:14,760 --> 01:18:18,000
You've had many guests I agree with, sure, but I just don't want

947
01:18:18,039 --> 01:18:21,640
to offend them or the spirit of
the show. So you think it's okay

948
01:18:21,680 --> 01:18:26,399
to mention the leader, Well,
sure, I mean, look, part

949
01:18:26,439 --> 01:18:31,399
of the spirit of the show is
open dialogue and discussion and uh, you

950
01:18:31,479 --> 01:18:35,159
know, so you can you can
critique. If somebody says something you want

951
01:18:35,199 --> 01:18:40,399
to respond to, feel free to
critique it. I mean that that that

952
01:18:41,000 --> 01:18:44,520
that individual would certainly uh and has
in the past, you know, critique

953
01:18:44,600 --> 01:18:47,000
things that you've said. And you
know, it's all you know, everybody,

954
01:18:47,039 --> 01:18:51,880
I encourage everybody to be open and
just you know, express express yourselves.

955
01:18:51,920 --> 01:18:55,640
You know, that's that's how the
show works. So you know,

956
01:18:55,720 --> 01:18:58,760
it's nothing to be uh. I
mean, I appreciate it. I understand

957
01:18:58,800 --> 01:19:00,159
you're trying to be very respectful everything. But at the same time, if

958
01:19:00,199 --> 01:19:03,039
you want to respond to something somebody
said that you don't agree with, that's

959
01:19:03,079 --> 01:19:06,800
fine. That's part of what we
do, you know. Okay, Yeah,

960
01:19:08,119 --> 01:19:11,239
yeah, I would still be you
know, my philosophy is I would

961
01:19:11,279 --> 01:19:15,800
still be very careful and courteous with
that. Sure, but so let me

962
01:19:16,079 --> 01:19:20,520
let me just say so, I'll
tell the joke. But they're in history

963
01:19:21,239 --> 01:19:25,640
in history, well, in history, yes, But what I'm getting at

964
01:19:25,800 --> 01:19:30,560
is historians, like I love certain
historians. Some of your guests may know

965
01:19:30,880 --> 01:19:34,039
these people and some may not.
That's it's fine. But Henry Steele Commnger

966
01:19:34,319 --> 01:19:39,560
was a great historian and I was
a big sand and follower of him.

967
01:19:39,600 --> 01:19:44,159
It's almost like, you know,
these guys are rock stars sometimes. But

968
01:19:44,600 --> 01:19:48,880
he's passed away now. But he
was an expert on Winston Churchill and great

969
01:19:49,239 --> 01:19:56,479
American history. And Howard Zen.
You know, I don't agree with he's

970
01:19:56,560 --> 01:19:59,920
past two, but I don't agree
with Howard Zen on a lot of Apolo.

971
01:20:00,079 --> 01:20:03,119
So he was a neo Marxist.
Wouldn't always talk about that, but

972
01:20:03,239 --> 01:20:09,039
he was. And but he wrote
a great book, The People's History of

973
01:20:09,439 --> 01:20:14,920
America, and I admire him.
To David barton Is as a historian,

974
01:20:14,960 --> 01:20:16,520
I left, but I won't get
it. But my point is this,

975
01:20:16,800 --> 01:20:24,279
there is a structure, an intellectual
structure and research structure, and in a

976
01:20:24,359 --> 01:20:30,119
world in American in history for historians, it's called presentism. And what that

977
01:20:30,359 --> 01:20:41,920
means is it's it's the critique of
a critique. It's a critique of the

978
01:20:42,079 --> 01:20:45,560
ideation or the value system, or
the or the or the mental system.

979
01:20:46,239 --> 01:20:51,079
That would look at history, look
at the Civil War for example, or

980
01:20:51,119 --> 01:20:56,479
look at the founding fathers for example
in America. We could do this worldwide.

981
01:20:59,399 --> 01:21:03,600
Uh, you know, but you
can make distinctions between, for example,

982
01:21:04,520 --> 01:21:11,359
very evil people on a moral plane
like Hitler and Mussolini, those types.

983
01:21:11,960 --> 01:21:16,640
Or at Till of the Hun Chris
pope Leo. I'm getting into a

984
01:21:16,680 --> 01:21:23,119
sidebar here. By Pope Leo actually
wrote out on a horse to talk to

985
01:21:23,800 --> 01:21:25,720
at Till of the Hun. Now
this sounds like I'm making it up,

986
01:21:25,720 --> 01:21:29,560
like it's a story, but it's
absolutely true. And he convinced the Till

987
01:21:29,640 --> 01:21:32,319
of the Hun to go back to
where he was coming from and not to

988
01:21:32,439 --> 01:21:36,399
attack Rome. Check it out.
That's a sinking story. But my point

989
01:21:36,520 --> 01:21:43,800
is with presentism, what they do
is people do is they judge the people's

990
01:21:43,920 --> 01:21:50,359
behavior, attitudes, value system in
a very parochial way based on the standards

991
01:21:50,399 --> 01:21:57,560
of today. Now, thank god
we have not only in this country but

992
01:21:57,680 --> 01:22:02,000
around the world, because there are
many exceptions to this. Uh, we

993
01:22:02,279 --> 01:22:11,520
have developed morally. Now we're in
a place where we we the moral development

994
01:22:11,600 --> 01:22:15,039
may be capping and we may be
regressing. And I'm not going to get

995
01:22:15,039 --> 01:22:17,359
into that because it's a whole other
topic. You know where I stand on

996
01:22:17,479 --> 01:22:23,920
that, But it's it's has to
with the league capture structure in philosophy.

997
01:22:24,039 --> 01:22:30,159
But there there there are many scholars
who would agree with my assessment map that

998
01:22:30,920 --> 01:22:36,800
we are now in a crisis in
the West and we are decaying. But

999
01:22:36,920 --> 01:22:43,199
anyway, so presidentism is saying uh, you know, is looking at someone

1000
01:22:43,359 --> 01:22:46,079
like say, great president like Lincoln
and saying, yeah, but he he

1001
01:22:46,279 --> 01:22:49,800
was a white supremacist for a while, in which he was, but then

1002
01:22:49,880 --> 01:22:53,560
he changed, you know, he
grew an office. You see what I'm

1003
01:22:53,560 --> 01:22:59,239
getting at. It's just something to
be very very careful with. Winston Churchill

1004
01:23:00,640 --> 01:23:05,600
made some mistakes when he was very
young. He that whole system that he

1005
01:23:05,760 --> 01:23:14,760
grew up in in in the late
nineteenth century was a very intellectual system,

1006
01:23:14,840 --> 01:23:18,560
but it was a hierarchical system that
favored The good side of it was that

1007
01:23:18,640 --> 01:23:25,680
has favored Western values of democracy,
equality, development of thought, development of

1008
01:23:25,760 --> 01:23:30,159
morality, things like that constitution.
You know, they looked at our constitution

1009
01:23:30,239 --> 01:23:33,880
and said, hey, that's pretty
good. So which, by the way,

1010
01:23:33,960 --> 01:23:39,720
on September seventeenth, that's a that's
an official holiday that we don't celebrate

1011
01:23:39,760 --> 01:23:43,600
that's Constitution Day. When I was
a kid in high school and then in

1012
01:23:44,319 --> 01:23:48,439
undergraduate school too, we took that
whole day on September seventeenth to study the

1013
01:23:48,479 --> 01:23:54,560
Bill of Rights in the Constitution.
Public schools generally do. There are exceptions,

1014
01:23:56,159 --> 01:23:59,399
Rob, that's a shout out to
you, Rob, but but generally

1015
01:23:59,479 --> 01:24:03,560
they don't practice that practice anymore.
Yeah, I don't know when you judge

1016
01:24:03,600 --> 01:24:09,800
somebody like Winston Churchill, who was
not a fascist ever and was a man

1017
01:24:10,720 --> 01:24:15,600
open to moral development and became,
of course one of the greatest leaders of

1018
01:24:15,760 --> 01:24:21,159
World War two. Objective reality guys, don't don't minimize that ever. So

1019
01:24:24,399 --> 01:24:28,640
you see him developing. And one
of the themes with him is that he

1020
01:24:28,920 --> 01:24:33,079
believed in that time, not today's
time. In that time that he was

1021
01:24:33,159 --> 01:24:38,000
living, you know, in the
in the early turn of the century,

1022
01:24:38,159 --> 01:24:46,399
the twenties and thirties and the fourties, he was looking at what constitutes behaviors

1023
01:24:46,560 --> 01:24:53,720
and values and attitudes that will go
to the betterment of all people. Now,

1024
01:24:53,800 --> 01:24:56,640
did he make a mistake with gandhe
he made a big mistake there.

1025
01:24:57,000 --> 01:25:02,359
But because he was he's what he
believed was that that was premature to give

1026
01:25:02,560 --> 01:25:08,319
some of these countries like India.
He was wrong on this, he was

1027
01:25:08,399 --> 01:25:14,279
wrong, but to give India independence. So what he what he felt was

1028
01:25:14,359 --> 01:25:17,720
too quickly, and he felt Gandhi
was a rebel roster, you know,

1029
01:25:19,079 --> 01:25:27,640
and he underestimated Gandhi's virtues for sure. So anyway, he but he he

1030
01:25:28,199 --> 01:25:34,039
he grew in office, and he
never his temperament was never to be racist

1031
01:25:34,239 --> 01:25:40,560
or to put people down because of
their race. But did he believe in

1032
01:25:40,600 --> 01:25:45,520
a hierarchy that we would we would
call in the pure intellectual sense, not

1033
01:25:45,680 --> 01:25:48,680
in the sense of these wackos out
there, the violent people, but a

1034
01:25:48,800 --> 01:25:57,000
white supremacist idea ideation. Yes,
But that wasn't just Churchill. You know.

1035
01:25:57,239 --> 01:26:01,600
That was the way the West was
moving at that time philosophically, and

1036
01:26:01,840 --> 01:26:05,720
the West would make that It didn't
make that correction with the That's why I'm

1037
01:26:05,720 --> 01:26:09,840
going to talk about philosophers today.
Just quickly. Do you see what I'm

1038
01:26:09,840 --> 01:26:13,880
getting at, Matt with President Chism? Oh? Absolutely? Yeah. In

1039
01:26:13,960 --> 01:26:15,159
other words, if you if you
look at if you look at history,

1040
01:26:15,159 --> 01:26:19,239
and you look at specific figures in
history like Churchill, and you apply standards

1041
01:26:19,279 --> 01:26:24,279
of today to absolutely everything they did
or everything they ever said and so forth.

1042
01:26:24,479 --> 01:26:28,159
YEA, then you can you can
find a way to who to almost

1043
01:26:28,399 --> 01:26:33,600
demonize really just about anybody. That's
correct, Matty, that's correct. You've

1044
01:26:33,640 --> 01:26:40,600
got it. And that's what great
historians who was see. I can't think

1045
01:26:40,600 --> 01:26:43,199
of the historian at you and h
I've talked to him. Happens to be

1046
01:26:43,279 --> 01:26:48,359
a guy, but he talks about
that that you want to You want to

1047
01:26:48,479 --> 01:26:54,359
see history, of course everybody would
say this. You want to see history

1048
01:26:54,479 --> 01:27:00,399
accurately, and you don't want to
demonize people you want to see unless unless

1049
01:27:00,399 --> 01:27:02,640
they deserve it, you know,
like Joseph Stalin, you know, for

1050
01:27:02,720 --> 01:27:10,399
examples. So you want to see
the nuances and the complexity and understand that.

1051
01:27:11,239 --> 01:27:15,960
Otherwise you don't have a good understanding
of human relations, values and history,

1052
01:27:16,039 --> 01:27:20,600
accurate history. And I'll tell you
even some of the junior social workers

1053
01:27:20,640 --> 01:27:28,319
I supervise they do. And I
know it sounds like I'm being condescending.

1054
01:27:28,359 --> 01:27:31,439
I'm not. I don't mean to
be condescending. I mean to be phenomenologically

1055
01:27:31,560 --> 01:27:38,720
say, philosophy are descriptive here they
don't have a good grasp of history mat

1056
01:27:39,039 --> 01:27:43,359
generally speaking, you know, these
are social workers in their twenties and early

1057
01:27:43,479 --> 01:27:46,039
thirties, you know. Yeah,
and again that speaks to some of the

1058
01:27:46,600 --> 01:27:54,359
lack of disciplined education and exposure to
ideas and dialogue you are exposed to that

1059
01:27:54,479 --> 01:27:56,920
it conquered high I mean, I
was thinking maybe I should have sent you

1060
01:27:57,000 --> 01:28:01,680
to Bishop Brady. Now as you
say you're not religious, I'm laughing about

1061
01:28:01,680 --> 01:28:05,760
this. I'm serious. Notes,
But anyway, you received a good education

1062
01:28:06,000 --> 01:28:11,159
there, you know, and that's
so important. I did too, thank

1063
01:28:11,279 --> 01:28:15,079
god, you know. And in
my high school days, Matt, I

1064
01:28:15,199 --> 01:28:19,640
had great, exceptional teachers, I
really did. And I goofed around my

1065
01:28:19,760 --> 01:28:24,239
first two years in the band and
playing some sports and stuff and hanging out

1066
01:28:24,279 --> 01:28:30,239
with my friends. But Malcolm X
and I don't get to all that.

1067
01:28:30,479 --> 01:28:35,840
But other writers, Dedrich bond Offer
changed my life one summer, and I

1068
01:28:36,319 --> 01:28:40,600
studied after that, thank god.
All right, so here's a quick show.

1069
01:28:41,239 --> 01:28:45,720
So Winston Churchill drank too much at
times. He lived to be ninety

1070
01:28:45,760 --> 01:28:51,560
two years old and smoked cigars right
up to the end that he was at

1071
01:28:51,640 --> 01:28:56,960
this party. He gets he gets
drunk, or he's he's he's imbibed too

1072
01:28:57,039 --> 01:29:00,520
much alcohol. And so a woman
was up to him from a very wealthy

1073
01:29:00,600 --> 01:29:06,840
family and says to him, Minister
Churchill, you are drunk. And Churchill

1074
01:29:08,079 --> 01:29:12,560
doesn't miss a bead. He says
to her in his sarcastic style that he

1075
01:29:12,640 --> 01:29:14,960
had. I won't try to imitate
it. But he said to her,

1076
01:29:15,439 --> 01:29:19,920
yes, madam, you have identified
it correctly. I am drunk and you

1077
01:29:20,079 --> 01:29:24,399
are ugly. I mean, he
could be brutal. And he said,

1078
01:29:25,119 --> 01:29:28,680
when I wake up in the morning, I will no longer be drunk.

1079
01:29:28,960 --> 01:29:31,279
I will be sober. But you, madam, you, madam, will

1080
01:29:31,359 --> 01:29:36,800
still be ugly. Isn't that awful? Yeah, but you gotta let you

1081
01:29:36,840 --> 01:29:40,359
gotta laugh a little. All listen, I don't want to take us.

1082
01:29:40,800 --> 01:29:43,279
Let's go to the quiz. Matt. You're ready in number one? Okay,

1083
01:29:43,520 --> 01:29:46,079
yea, these got true or false? And I know I'll do him

1084
01:29:46,079 --> 01:29:50,359
and then we'll come back. Okay. This is in philosophy, the great

1085
01:29:51,239 --> 01:29:55,159
hero of mine in philosophy, one
of them I have many, actually,

1086
01:29:55,479 --> 01:30:00,640
Aristotle. Aristotle one of his great
statements in ethic says, he said it

1087
01:30:00,840 --> 01:30:05,039
is good to know, it is
good to appreciate, and he said you

1088
01:30:06,000 --> 01:30:10,039
you should be all people. He
would use the word and man a lot.

1089
01:30:10,079 --> 01:30:15,119
He meant he meant, man,
so all people should practice excuse me,

1090
01:30:15,279 --> 01:30:20,479
all people should know virtue, but
it was more important to practice virtue.

1091
01:30:21,119 --> 01:30:26,640
True or false? That's number one, Okay. Number two, we

1092
01:30:26,760 --> 01:30:31,479
go to Saint Thomas Aquinas, one
of my favorite philosophers, and he wrote

1093
01:30:31,520 --> 01:30:35,880
on the Just War. He was
the first official many wrote subsequently about him.

1094
01:30:36,399 --> 01:30:40,600
He wrote on the Just War,
and the West has adopted this these

1095
01:30:40,680 --> 01:30:46,760
principles, and he so he said
that you have to have a good reason.

1096
01:30:47,640 --> 01:30:50,560
You can. You can use self
defense, you know, meeting the

1097
01:30:50,640 --> 01:30:57,439
nation, defending the nation, but
you have no right. And you should

1098
01:30:57,600 --> 01:31:03,159
never attack on purpose best purposely civilians
in the war. True or false.

1099
01:31:03,760 --> 01:31:12,520
Finally, I'm gonna mention another uh
ever ever Stillian philosophy here. So finally

1100
01:31:12,640 --> 01:31:17,119
this is an interesting true or false
okay, Jacques Maraton. Everybody said that

1101
01:31:17,199 --> 01:31:21,880
with me, Jacques maritoncue merit just
kidding. That's very good, not very

1102
01:31:21,960 --> 01:31:28,960
good. Indeed. So he was
a great Thomas philosopher. And Jacques Maritime

1103
01:31:29,199 --> 01:31:34,600
was the first official ambassador to the
U N for France, and forty seven

1104
01:31:34,640 --> 01:31:39,199
I believe was forty six or forty
seven he was appointed. So and he

1105
01:31:39,359 --> 01:31:43,199
was a great teacher. I've read
his books. We we had to take

1106
01:31:43,319 --> 01:31:47,439
full logic at Holy Apostles, and
we one of his textbooks on logic.

1107
01:31:47,520 --> 01:31:57,199
But anyway, Jacques Maraton had a
friendship with an American communist philosopher. That

1108
01:31:57,399 --> 01:32:08,079
American communist philosopher was, Oh my
god, not forgetting it, Oh my

1109
01:32:08,239 --> 01:32:15,279
god. I mentioned him on the
UH before he was the author of our

1110
01:32:15,880 --> 01:32:17,840
you can help me on mat of
rules for radicals? Who were rules for

1111
01:32:17,960 --> 01:32:27,159
radicals? Thank you God. I
had a minecram wit him. I gotta

1112
01:32:27,199 --> 01:32:32,840
take like six six ginko. So
is that? So? They had a

1113
01:32:33,000 --> 01:32:41,640
friendship for a while, and then
subsequently Jacques Maratan UH came out against his

1114
01:32:41,800 --> 01:32:45,640
print what what he understood them?
Was his principles true or false? All

1115
01:32:45,720 --> 01:32:49,640
right, let's go to number one
quickly. Here we go Aristotle. Did

1116
01:32:49,720 --> 01:32:55,319
he say it is more important to
practice virtue? I mean, of course,

1117
01:32:55,359 --> 01:32:59,720
he's implying you gotta know virtue than
just no virtue true or false?

1118
01:33:00,680 --> 01:33:03,520
I said true. What do you
say, Texas, Mike, I say

1119
01:33:03,640 --> 01:33:10,079
two as well? All right,
you are both correct. Almundo, very

1120
01:33:10,159 --> 01:33:15,520
good, gentleman, very good.
Number two. Saint Thomas Aquinas, who

1121
01:33:15,600 --> 01:33:19,319
wasn't his Aristotelian two. But of
course he was a Roman Catholic theologian too,

1122
01:33:19,399 --> 01:33:24,000
and great teacher and priests. But
anyway, so he said, he

1123
01:33:24,159 --> 01:33:30,840
wrote the first definitive Treatises on the
Just War because some people were saying,

1124
01:33:30,880 --> 01:33:34,680
oh, you know, if you're
a Christian or in the Jewish faith or

1125
01:33:34,720 --> 01:33:39,920
whatever, you cannot use any violence, so you can't go to war,

1126
01:33:40,079 --> 01:33:45,880
you know, and the extreme categorical
pacifist position. Aquinas said, no,

1127
01:33:45,119 --> 01:33:51,199
that's not true. But he said, you cannot purposely attack civilians. Is

1128
01:33:51,319 --> 01:33:58,880
that true or false? I said
true? I said, I said too

1129
01:33:58,920 --> 01:34:01,600
as well. Not confident in my
answer, but yes, we both said

1130
01:34:01,640 --> 01:34:06,800
true. You both are correct.
Am well done, guys. I think

1131
01:34:06,800 --> 01:34:12,920
you see a theme here. The
third third true or false quickly is on

1132
01:34:13,159 --> 01:34:17,840
Jacques Maraton's relationship with Salolinsky. Thank
god for Genko Blobi. I'm feeling so

1133
01:34:17,960 --> 01:34:23,319
much better, guys. But anyway, so they did they is it true

1134
01:34:23,359 --> 01:34:28,640
that they had a friendship for a
while, And then subsequently when Maraton saw

1135
01:34:28,800 --> 01:34:31,560
what he was actually saying, because
Salolinski would fool you, because he would

1136
01:34:31,560 --> 01:34:34,520
say he would, he would be
like, does this remind you of any

1137
01:34:34,640 --> 01:34:39,079
any party? Today, but you
don't have to answer as rhetorical. But

1138
01:34:39,640 --> 01:34:43,520
he would. He would talk about
social and economic justice a lot as the

1139
01:34:43,600 --> 01:34:49,439
neo Marxist would do in the Grand
Cheese would do. But his philosophy ultimately

1140
01:34:49,640 --> 01:34:56,960
was very totalitarian. So is that
true or false? With regard as Jacques

1141
01:34:57,000 --> 01:35:01,800
Maratan and Salolinsky. I'm really not
confident with this one, but I said

1142
01:35:01,880 --> 01:35:05,880
true. How about you, Texas, Mike, I went false sexually?

1143
01:35:06,239 --> 01:35:11,399
Okay, all right, Well it's
good. It's good that there was a

1144
01:35:11,479 --> 01:35:15,640
split there because it makes oh,
that makes a little more interesting fundamentally,

1145
01:35:15,199 --> 01:35:19,439
I believe. Anyway, Yes,
Matt, you are correct. Ol Mundo,

1146
01:35:20,039 --> 01:35:23,600
Mike, You're off on that one. But that's understandable. It's a

1147
01:35:23,680 --> 01:35:29,239
complex one because they did form a
friendship. There were a number of Catholic

1148
01:35:29,359 --> 01:35:34,640
priests who were I won't go into
them, but scholars who bought into Salolinski

1149
01:35:34,760 --> 01:35:40,880
for a long time, and then
they were very embarrassed ultimately, and they

1150
01:35:41,000 --> 01:35:45,880
retracted their positions and change their positions. But yeah, all three of those

1151
01:35:45,079 --> 01:35:49,439
were were true. That's our philosophy
for today. Well, very good,

1152
01:35:49,640 --> 01:35:53,880
very good. Well we are dad, we are almost out of time,

1153
01:35:54,000 --> 01:35:57,159
so we'll have to. I'm sorry. Yeah, no, I didn't realize

1154
01:35:57,159 --> 01:36:00,439
that. That's all right, it's
yeah late late in the show, but

1155
01:36:00,520 --> 01:36:04,039
I appreciate the call. Yeah,
it's you and you guys are doing a

1156
01:36:04,039 --> 01:36:08,279
good jobbing and it's it's even though
we disagree. We're going to disagree on

1157
01:36:08,399 --> 01:36:11,000
some things, of course, but
I tell you that Freud and Young talked

1158
01:36:11,000 --> 01:36:13,359
to a button. I'm just gonna
get you. Know you haven't mentioned,

1159
01:36:14,359 --> 01:36:18,039
but Mike Texas, Mike, it's
always good to see you on the show.

1160
01:36:18,159 --> 01:36:21,319
I say see you know in a
metaphorical but Mike, you have a

1161
01:36:21,439 --> 01:36:26,119
lot of great posts on Facebook,
and I always try to give you a

1162
01:36:26,199 --> 01:36:29,680
heads up on that. I mean
it, thumbs up on that, yep,

1163
01:36:30,159 --> 01:36:32,960
and I appreciate it. Oh,
I know you're doing Mike. You're

1164
01:36:32,960 --> 01:36:38,119
doing a great job. And congratulations
on your relationship too. That's wonderful,

1165
01:36:38,159 --> 01:36:41,840
Mike, Thank you great. Yeah, he's he's welcome, Mike, pleasure

1166
01:36:41,920 --> 01:36:44,439
and honor. All right, guys, hell, let you go, Uh,

1175
01:37:14,439 --> 01:37:16,520
Are you aware of him? Are
familiar with him? I've heard of

1176
01:37:16,680 --> 01:37:20,640
him before, Yeah, not really, not really explored any of his stuff.

1177
01:37:20,640 --> 01:37:26,520
I know of him, haven't really
explored up. But yeah, if

1178
01:37:26,600 --> 01:37:30,600
I'm if I'm homo, probably listen. Yeah, very good, very good.
