00:00:10.560 --> 00:00:14.240

5
00:00:22.519 --> 00:00:24.719
to cover tonight. I think I
think you brought a lot to the table.

6
00:00:24.760 --> 00:00:28.120
I brought some things to the table. We'll probably blow through most of

7
00:00:28.160 --> 00:00:31.600
it, forget half of it,
and end up doing a top five of

8
00:00:31.640 --> 00:00:37.520
our top favorite top five favorite in
Excess songs of all time. And you

9
00:00:37.560 --> 00:00:40.119
sent this to me today and you're
like, dude in excess are you a

10
00:00:40.119 --> 00:00:43.200
fan? I'm like, well,
I blew it last episode where I picked

11
00:00:43.200 --> 00:00:45.320
the wrong thing. So I'm like, I'm going in excess because I know

12
00:00:45.359 --> 00:00:48.000
where the fan you are. So
I'm like, yes, top five favorite

13
00:00:48.039 --> 00:00:51.200
in Excess songs and uh, dude, I watch some videos today. I

14
00:00:51.200 --> 00:00:54.240
did a little homework today, like
where are you with that band? Though?

15
00:00:54.320 --> 00:00:57.200
I mean, okay, you know
I love them. I absolutely love

16
00:00:57.280 --> 00:01:00.320
them. I think they're amazing.
And I said it because I think there

17
00:01:00.359 --> 00:01:03.799
was some other I'll talk about it. We've got some other good like top

18
00:01:03.799 --> 00:01:07.040
fives coming up like down, down, down the road, right, where

19
00:01:07.079 --> 00:01:10.760
are you Within Excess? You know
what? I came to the party very

20
00:01:10.840 --> 00:01:15.120
late because I didn't get into that
well. I didn't know of them till

21
00:01:15.200 --> 00:01:18.200
it was already. They were already
big. They were in their peak in

22
00:01:18.200 --> 00:01:22.439
the late eighties, early nineties,
that was their peak season, and I

23
00:01:22.519 --> 00:01:26.680
was just like, what is this
new wave shit. I didn't get into

24
00:01:26.680 --> 00:01:30.519
it. I didn't like it.
I didn't think any of it was good.

25
00:01:30.560 --> 00:01:33.319
I hated all of it. I
was into the hair metal man.

26
00:01:33.359 --> 00:01:36.799
I was all guns and roses,
you know, all that ship white Snake.

27
00:01:37.159 --> 00:01:41.280
So you know, like we talked
many times about you had your your

28
00:01:41.519 --> 00:01:44.560
dividing lines, and I wasn't.
At that point in my life. I

29
00:01:44.599 --> 00:01:47.959
was not straying outside of those lines. I was very focused on my lane.

30
00:01:48.000 --> 00:01:51.519
I didn't move right or left.
I was all about that metal and

31
00:01:51.760 --> 00:01:55.519
Uh. I came to in Excess
much much later, and I've grown to

32
00:01:55.560 --> 00:02:01.079
appreciate that band more and more every
year. I really do. He has

33
00:02:01.120 --> 00:02:06.400
to go down as one of the
great front men. And you know,

34
00:02:06.480 --> 00:02:12.639
they were kind of like a rockier, cooler Dare I say, Duran,

35
00:02:12.800 --> 00:02:15.840
Duran? You know, I mean, because a lot of it dealt with

36
00:02:15.879 --> 00:02:20.800
image with that band, and they
were a big MTV band. But they

37
00:02:20.879 --> 00:02:23.080
had the songs though, you know, and Duran Durant had great songs too.

38
00:02:23.080 --> 00:02:25.599
I mean, they just weren't pretty
boys, they had great songs.

39
00:02:25.599 --> 00:02:30.520
So the comparison I think is fair
because he because I don't discount and you

40
00:02:30.560 --> 00:02:34.280
know, Duran Duran's going into the
rock and roll Hall of Fame. But

41
00:02:34.360 --> 00:02:38.439
in excess, man, they have
the songs, They've got the catalog going

42
00:02:38.520 --> 00:02:42.719
all the way back to the early
eighties. And then kind of like every

43
00:02:42.719 --> 00:02:47.199
other band out there, you know, Nirvana didn't do in excess any favors

44
00:02:47.240 --> 00:02:51.840
like you know, like most bands, and uh, and they were already

45
00:02:51.960 --> 00:02:54.759
on the decline and then Nirvana came
in and then just kind of wiped them

46
00:02:54.800 --> 00:02:59.719
out, you know. So we'll
get into that a little bit. We

47
00:02:59.719 --> 00:03:01.159
don't have to spend a whole lot
of time. I mean, now we've

48
00:03:01.159 --> 00:03:07.479
been doing this podcast for a couple
of years, so I'm sure we you

49
00:03:07.479 --> 00:03:09.879
know, at some point a year
ago we covered that this is the anniversary

50
00:03:09.919 --> 00:03:15.199
of Elvis's death, so it's forty
six years now. I imagine there'll be

51
00:03:15.240 --> 00:03:19.479
a big to do, like on
the fiftieth I imagine, you know,

52
00:03:19.520 --> 00:03:23.560
I can see like a television special
and you know, doing different things.

53
00:03:23.319 --> 00:03:30.360
Forty six years nineteen seventy seven,
Elvis Presley dies and I'm six years old

54
00:03:31.080 --> 00:03:37.919
and I'm outside playing in the street
with a tennis racket going, just just

55
00:03:38.240 --> 00:03:42.240
lobbing the tennis ball back and forth
with my dad, and my mom comes

56
00:03:42.240 --> 00:03:46.879
out because we weren't in school yet. And my mom comes out and she's

57
00:03:46.919 --> 00:03:51.719
in hysterics that Elvis had passed away. And that for me is like my

58
00:03:51.800 --> 00:03:58.400
first memorable celebrity death. I remember
the exact day that had happened, on

59
00:03:58.520 --> 00:04:01.680
that hot August day in in north
Tonawanda, New York. My mom was

60
00:04:01.960 --> 00:04:05.919
a huge, as I know your
parents were too, a huge Elvis fan.

61
00:04:06.000 --> 00:04:12.240
My dad could give a shit,
but my mom worshiped him. Yeah.

62
00:04:12.280 --> 00:04:15.439
Well, think about the time period
in your mom, what her age

63
00:04:15.520 --> 00:04:16.800
was when he came out, you
know what I mean, Like that was

64
00:04:16.839 --> 00:04:19.399
her guy, you know, and
and and Elvis was huge. I don't

65
00:04:19.399 --> 00:04:23.560
remember because I was I was I
was much younger than you, Rod uh

66
00:04:23.639 --> 00:04:28.759
So I don't remember when that happened, but I just remember my mom talking

67
00:04:28.800 --> 00:04:30.360
about it at different times over the
years, saying it was just it was

68
00:04:30.399 --> 00:04:34.560
just horrible, you know. And
she was actually supposed to go see him

69
00:04:34.600 --> 00:04:38.439
because that's you know, that was
later years and he was doing the big

70
00:04:38.480 --> 00:04:41.560
stints out in Vegas. Then he
would take off and do some tours and

71
00:04:41.600 --> 00:04:46.600
she was supposed to go see him
at Melody Fair in the north Tonawandah.

72
00:04:46.240 --> 00:04:49.560
But then he died. Yeah,
she's never forgave him for that, she

73
00:04:49.639 --> 00:04:53.319
never got to see him. She
still pitched. She's like, Elvis died

74
00:04:53.319 --> 00:04:56.839
before I got a chance to see
him. And you know, you mentioned

75
00:04:56.839 --> 00:04:59.959
about the fiftieth anniversary, there will
be a huge to do on the fifth.

76
00:05:00.279 --> 00:05:02.360
First, you know, other than
the fact that's nice round number is

77
00:05:02.399 --> 00:05:11.600
that they locked away his autopsy report
until fifty years is up. Well,

78
00:05:11.720 --> 00:05:14.199
the family wanted to hide it.
The thing about Elvis, and this is

79
00:05:14.240 --> 00:05:16.079
where he was kind of an asshole. Okay. He was this big guy

80
00:05:16.199 --> 00:05:19.720
like, oh, I you know, I'm against I'm anti drugs, anti

81
00:05:19.800 --> 00:05:25.040
drugs, blah blah blah, and
drugs to him was cocaine and marijuana.

82
00:05:25.120 --> 00:05:28.879
He didn't think all those fucking pills
that he was taking was drugs. So

83
00:05:28.959 --> 00:05:31.959
the family wanted to hide everything.
He was the biggest pill popper druggie on

84
00:05:32.000 --> 00:05:39.319
the planet, but he didn't consider
that drugs correct. Yeah, yeah,

85
00:05:39.399 --> 00:05:42.519
yeah, And when I found out, is it like his his intestines were

86
00:05:42.560 --> 00:05:46.879
so jacked and filled with his own
it shit because of the drugs. And

87
00:05:46.920 --> 00:05:51.279
his diet was horrible. Bull he'd
lived on cheeseburgers and sodas. That's what

88
00:05:51.399 --> 00:05:56.759
he lived on in the pills.
His guts were a wreck, like they

89
00:05:56.800 --> 00:06:00.519
were packing all of that stuff too. Like when you can't sleep and stuff,

90
00:06:00.560 --> 00:06:02.600
Man, that fucks up your balls. I mean, even when you're

91
00:06:02.600 --> 00:06:08.759
taking anything to numb yourself. Because
I know this from a couple of surgeries

92
00:06:08.800 --> 00:06:14.959
now, and I remember specifically my
back surgery. Okay, so they're numbing

93
00:06:15.000 --> 00:06:19.680
up your back when I had my
surgery, I'm not leaving the hospital until

94
00:06:19.720 --> 00:06:25.000
I shit, right, yeah,
you can't go. You can't. You

95
00:06:25.279 --> 00:06:29.439
have to go poop before they're gonna
let you leave. Now, think about

96
00:06:29.439 --> 00:06:31.680
where they're numbing me up to and
think what it's close to, so you're

97
00:06:31.720 --> 00:06:36.360
in that area. So it's just
I'm like, I don't have to go,

98
00:06:36.439 --> 00:06:42.279
man, I just I just nothing
is happening. So I don't know

99
00:06:42.319 --> 00:06:45.560
if you want to know the horrors
what they had to do to me to

100
00:06:45.600 --> 00:06:49.040
get me to go. I kind
of don't know. It's after surgery like

101
00:06:49.079 --> 00:06:54.480
that. It's all about pooping.
So he is on one dose, he

102
00:06:54.560 --> 00:06:59.199
can't fall asleep. More pills,
he can't fall asleep. A third dosage.

103
00:06:59.319 --> 00:07:02.399
Now he's so fucking numbed up.
Then he goes to the bathroom and

104
00:07:02.399 --> 00:07:06.720
they're like, don't fall asleep in
there. Okay, goes to the bathroom,

105
00:07:08.040 --> 00:07:12.199
falls asleep. So that's it.
I mean, you know, well

106
00:07:12.199 --> 00:07:15.199
it's I mean, I'm sure it
was a cardiac arrest, but between that

107
00:07:15.319 --> 00:07:19.000
and a cardiac arrest and whatever,
you know, they were worried about him

108
00:07:19.000 --> 00:07:23.839
falling asleep, not the shitter,
right, because everyone said it was like

109
00:07:24.000 --> 00:07:26.399
drugs that did it. Well,
you know, indirectly, it wasn't an

110
00:07:26.399 --> 00:07:30.079
overdose per se like you're you're used
to. It's like he was dead by

111
00:07:30.079 --> 00:07:31.480
the time he hit the floor.
He was on the hopper, he was

112
00:07:31.519 --> 00:07:35.519
fine, with his ass in the
air, his face down, and he

113
00:07:35.600 --> 00:07:38.879
was dead like as soon as he
hit the floor, he was already dead,

114
00:07:39.000 --> 00:07:42.319
Like he fell off like if it
was a drug overdose he'd have been

115
00:07:42.360 --> 00:07:46.519
like trying to crawl to the door
and all this sh So I heard another

116
00:07:46.600 --> 00:07:50.560
pretty reliable story. And again a
lot of this is unknown because the family

117
00:07:50.639 --> 00:07:57.120
was covering all this stuff up.
But obviously the joke was in the punchline

118
00:07:57.160 --> 00:08:00.560
was that Elvis died on the shitter. But man, I had heard from

119
00:08:00.560 --> 00:08:05.199
a pretty reliable source. And I
think back in the day interviewing like one

120
00:08:05.279 --> 00:08:09.319
of the Memphis Mafia or whatever,
and again he might still be covering up.

121
00:08:09.319 --> 00:08:15.319
But Elvis's favorite chair was a barber
chair, and he had a barber

122
00:08:15.439 --> 00:08:18.720
chair in his bathroom. And I
was told that he was in the barber

123
00:08:18.839 --> 00:08:24.199
chair when he when he that's what
he fell off of. It was his

124
00:08:24.319 --> 00:08:26.639
favorite thing to sit in. It
was his you know, it was a

125
00:08:26.680 --> 00:08:30.839
big I mean, think about how
comfortable a barber chair is. Yeah,

126
00:08:31.440 --> 00:08:35.600
that's just inside. But we don't
know, you know, I mean,

127
00:08:35.679 --> 00:08:37.240
I think most reports are going to
say that, yeah, he fell off

128
00:08:37.240 --> 00:08:41.080
the hopper. He felt his girlfriend
at the time, Ginger. She wrote

129
00:08:41.080 --> 00:08:46.080
in her memoir that she walked in, she found the girlfriend, found the

130
00:08:46.159 --> 00:08:48.559
dude, and she said, yeah, assa pants around his his pajamas around

131
00:08:48.559 --> 00:08:54.399
his ankles. And just eyes,
you know, bloodshot dead. But then

132
00:08:54.440 --> 00:08:58.200
again, you know who do you
trust in that whole thing? You know

133
00:08:58.200 --> 00:09:00.600
what I mean? They want to
she wants to sell book, so she's

134
00:09:00.600 --> 00:09:01.679
gonna try and give you some good
stuff. I don't know what to believe

135
00:09:01.720 --> 00:09:05.320
anymore. Man. But since we're
talking about shitting Rod, I want to

136
00:09:05.399 --> 00:09:09.720
update people. Last episode, at
the end of the episode, I talked

137
00:09:09.759 --> 00:09:13.279
about a problem we had at work
at the radio station where I work in

138
00:09:13.320 --> 00:09:16.440
New Orleans, And yeah, why
don't you get the Sports Center edition of

139
00:09:16.480 --> 00:09:20.320
where what happened? And then I'm
so happy you're bringing this up, and

140
00:09:20.720 --> 00:09:24.879
people on the internets are very happy
you're bringing this up right now, So

141
00:09:24.000 --> 00:09:28.759
please, why don't you just a
you know, quick little backstory. So

142
00:09:28.840 --> 00:09:31.279
somebody was taking a dump at work
in the evening and then in the morning

143
00:09:31.279 --> 00:09:35.240
when the next people would come in, like me or some other people,

144
00:09:35.320 --> 00:09:39.240
engineers, general managers, jocks,
whatever, they'd walk into the hopper and

145
00:09:39.279 --> 00:09:43.559
there'd be a freaking a gift in
the basket. As you would say,

146
00:09:43.840 --> 00:09:48.320
right, someone didn't flush. And
so I don't know how I got designated

147
00:09:48.440 --> 00:09:50.879
guy to take care of this problem, but I was designated guy to take

148
00:09:50.879 --> 00:09:54.919
care of this problem. You're the
program director, dude, Okay, direct

149
00:09:54.000 --> 00:09:58.840
some programs. So yeah, I
want programs, yeah, on the radio,

150
00:09:58.960 --> 00:10:01.480
but not not somebody's asshole. So
I'm like, so I did what

151
00:10:01.519 --> 00:10:05.759
any good manager would do at the
time. I blew it off twice.

152
00:10:05.440 --> 00:10:07.919
I just didn't give a shit.
I'm like, I'm not doing that.

153
00:10:09.080 --> 00:10:11.919
Come on, man, it's this
grown man shit figured out, classic classic

154
00:10:13.039 --> 00:10:16.320
middle management. It's brilliant, right, I'm a fucking with that. So

155
00:10:16.480 --> 00:10:18.600
anyway, it came back to haunt
me. My GM came in last week

156
00:10:18.639 --> 00:10:22.039
and he's like, what the you
know, he's walked into a turd.

157
00:10:22.240 --> 00:10:26.600
He walked into a bomber and he
comes out and he's mad, he's yelling

158
00:10:26.639 --> 00:10:28.159
and he's laughing, and I'm like, oh, I I gotta address this

159
00:10:28.240 --> 00:10:31.639
damn thing. So and I said
at the end of last episode, I

160
00:10:31.639 --> 00:10:35.720
said, I need to address it, and I will address it this week.

161
00:10:35.799 --> 00:10:39.519
And I did Monday morning. The
first thing I did Monday morning.

162
00:10:39.519 --> 00:10:41.519
Forget about music, forget about all
the things I gotta do for radio.

163
00:10:41.840 --> 00:10:45.679
Sure, hey, just send on
an email about Hey, guys, let's

164
00:10:45.759 --> 00:10:48.559
flush the toilet. But I didn't
want to send out just say, hey,

165
00:10:48.600 --> 00:10:52.360
guys, let's flush the toilet.
Email. I wanted to be sensitive,

166
00:10:52.360 --> 00:10:54.399
but I wanted to be amusing,
but I wanted to be careful,

167
00:10:54.679 --> 00:10:56.960
you know, because this is a
it's gonna be an HR thing. You

168
00:10:56.000 --> 00:10:58.399
never know. In this day and
age, everyone sens it it. So

169
00:11:00.039 --> 00:11:03.360
here's what I sent. Let me
know how I did run because you've seen

170
00:11:03.360 --> 00:11:07.399
these types of emails before. In
the subject line of this email, I

171
00:11:07.440 --> 00:11:13.240
said, I just simply put water
conservation subject to the email. So that

172
00:11:13.279 --> 00:11:15.919
pops up and you're like, oh, water conservation, this could be interesting.

173
00:11:16.120 --> 00:11:18.360
Where's he going with this here?
And I said, while we should

174
00:11:18.440 --> 00:11:24.360
always look for ways to help conserve
energy and water, there are times when

175
00:11:24.440 --> 00:11:30.960
that isn't feasible. For instance,
a toilet should be flushed every time all

176
00:11:31.039 --> 00:11:35.639
the time. Let's keep that men's
room clean and fresh. End of email.

177
00:11:37.639 --> 00:11:41.559
I said it without going into directness. You know what I mean.

178
00:11:41.360 --> 00:11:43.720
Just keep it clean and fresh.
Boys, Let's keep it clean and fresh.

179
00:11:43.919 --> 00:11:48.279
I would have liked the word unfea
sisible. I wasn't making jokes.

180
00:11:50.000 --> 00:11:52.000
This is something that could end up
going to HR. I was not going

181
00:11:52.080 --> 00:11:56.200
to throw jokes, you know.
I got to it well, so to

182
00:11:56.320 --> 00:11:58.919
follow up on that. So I
set it out just to the dude.

183
00:12:00.360 --> 00:12:03.039
You know, I kept it very
in the wheelhouse, right, so you

184
00:12:03.080 --> 00:12:07.840
didn't even put like at the end, they're like, so inclosing, flush

185
00:12:07.879 --> 00:12:13.120
your fucking turds, that's not in
there. Damn no, no, no.

186
00:12:13.559 --> 00:12:16.879
I had to be a middle management
management man. So I send it

187
00:12:16.960 --> 00:12:20.759
and I'm like, Okay, I
think we got this taken care of.

188
00:12:20.879 --> 00:12:24.960
Well no, no, no,
no one responds to that email because okay,

189
00:12:24.960 --> 00:12:28.720
which idiot, Because you know,
dummies at radio stations, everybody's a

190
00:12:28.759 --> 00:12:33.279
fucking comedian. Oh I'm gonna reply
all with my little zinger, and then

191
00:12:33.320 --> 00:12:37.679
I can only imagine a whole afternoon
of zingers flying around. None, not

192
00:12:37.799 --> 00:12:41.200
one. Everyone was too chicken to
do it. But what happened was everyone

193
00:12:41.279 --> 00:12:46.559
kind of went offline and started texting
me, and you know, it was

194
00:12:46.559 --> 00:12:52.240
great. Everyone knew who it was. Everybody said the same dude. They're

195
00:12:52.279 --> 00:12:54.120
like, oh, it's this guy. Did the turd bandit reach out to

196
00:12:54.159 --> 00:13:00.159
you? No? I did not. Everyone else on that email reached out

197
00:13:00.200 --> 00:13:01.399
to be Oh it's this dude.
They all hit me. They all everyone

198
00:13:01.480 --> 00:13:05.200
knew who it was. I'm like, I guess maybe I should just went

199
00:13:05.240 --> 00:13:07.000
and talk to the guy, but
I couldn't bring myself to have a face

200
00:13:07.039 --> 00:13:09.799
to face with another grown man.
So anyway, that that is where we

201
00:13:11.159 --> 00:13:13.879
ended things. And for this whole
week now I've been the first guy in

202
00:13:13.960 --> 00:13:16.120
the place. I've checked. Now
now it's a thing. Now it's a

203
00:13:16.159 --> 00:13:20.960
thing I check every morning. We've
been fresh and clean. So alternate gate

204
00:13:22.320 --> 00:13:26.519
settled. Well. Now see it's
only been three four days, so we'll

205
00:13:26.519 --> 00:13:28.840
see how this goes well. I
will update us if we have a have

206
00:13:28.960 --> 00:13:35.840
an errant morning. Well done,
great, well done? Can I share

207
00:13:35.840 --> 00:13:41.320
an email from Gravy Gang or Moondo, who's been on board with us too.

208
00:13:41.360 --> 00:13:46.639
He's a big yeah, he's a
big ladle ladle guy listening to Alex's

209
00:13:46.679 --> 00:13:50.480
podcast Past the Gravy, but man, he jumped right over with us when

210
00:13:50.480 --> 00:13:56.159
we started doing ours and he said, brother rod uh And he's he always

211
00:13:56.159 --> 00:13:58.559
mentions you. You remember Moondo.
He's the guy that's got the split shirt

212
00:13:58.600 --> 00:14:03.440
at my tournament and half of it
is play pants, half of it is

213
00:14:03.480 --> 00:14:05.639
past the Gravy. I mean,
he's just he's the best. He's a

214
00:14:05.679 --> 00:14:09.360
guy with the signs at the wrestling
too. Right, Does he say yes,

215
00:14:09.639 --> 00:14:11.799
yeah, he got turned away.
He wasn't allowed to bring him in.

216
00:14:11.159 --> 00:14:13.919
There was just a wrestling match,
and he said he got no more

217
00:14:13.919 --> 00:14:18.759
signs. Oh that's crap. Would
we have more signs because he's gotten on

218
00:14:18.799 --> 00:14:22.720
not only pay per view, but
like I don't know, like the Monday

219
00:14:22.799 --> 00:14:26.799
night raws and stuff like that,
holding up Playpants pod. We should have

220
00:14:26.840 --> 00:14:31.120
more listeners that kind of marketing.
All right, So Mundo says, y'all

221
00:14:31.159 --> 00:14:35.159
should do a segment on your play
Pants podcast where you all create a band

222
00:14:35.200 --> 00:14:41.200
with the most overrated members, like
most overrated singer and guitarist and drummer,

223
00:14:41.279 --> 00:14:46.240
etc. Or maybe just your overrated
bands. I'm curious what you guys would

224
00:14:46.320 --> 00:14:52.840
choose. Continued success loyal listener Mundo, I like that, though, you

225
00:14:52.879 --> 00:14:58.279
know, I mean, is there, off the top of your head,

226
00:14:58.399 --> 00:15:01.879
is there an overrated band or is
it just a band that you don't like?

227
00:15:03.039 --> 00:15:07.799
I don't. I never understood the
term overrated. I can't. I

228
00:15:07.879 --> 00:15:11.559
never looked up the definition of what
that's supposed to mean. Like it feels

229
00:15:11.559 --> 00:15:13.159
like it's just band you don't like, Like, you know, just to

230
00:15:13.279 --> 00:15:18.559
pick out of the sky a creed. Okay, you can take Creek because

231
00:15:18.600 --> 00:15:22.279
ever loves to hate on Creed Right. Are they overrated? I don't know

232
00:15:22.320 --> 00:15:26.399
what that means because they all are
talented at their instruments. Mark Tremoni is

233
00:15:26.440 --> 00:15:30.960
great, I mean, lover hates
Scott Stamp. Dude can fucking sing.

234
00:15:31.440 --> 00:15:35.519
Right, They wrote some hits,
They've sold fifty million albums worldwide. Are

235
00:15:35.519 --> 00:15:39.000
they overrated? They got success?
I don't know. I don't know how

236
00:15:39.039 --> 00:15:43.679
much heat you want on this pod? I'm bring it. How much heat

237
00:15:43.759 --> 00:15:46.639
do you want on this pod?
Let's do it, let's do it?

238
00:15:46.799 --> 00:15:54.720
Bring it. Beyonce? Wow,
overrated, overrated, super talented, great,

239
00:15:54.840 --> 00:15:58.679
awesome. She's a phony. She's
not even like a real person.

240
00:15:58.200 --> 00:16:02.440
I don't even think she's not real. It does feel that way, doesn't

241
00:16:02.440 --> 00:16:04.799
it. She's like a robot.
There's just I mean, I get it.

242
00:16:04.919 --> 00:16:10.080
You want to be you want this
thing. And right now she's getting

243
00:16:10.120 --> 00:16:14.720
her ass kicked by Taylor Swift.
But you know, Beyonce, she's from

244
00:16:14.759 --> 00:16:17.120
here. So again, I don't
know how much heat you want on this

245
00:16:17.200 --> 00:16:22.360
pod? You want the beehive coming
at you or coming at me us.

246
00:16:23.399 --> 00:16:30.679
I don't know if she's just you
know, just something about her that just

247
00:16:30.720 --> 00:16:36.200
seems phony to me. Yeah,
over something about her seems a little phony.

248
00:16:36.279 --> 00:16:38.279
You know. Is she talented?
Does she dance her ass off?

249
00:16:38.399 --> 00:16:42.480
Yes? Sings well, you know, she sings really good. She sings

250
00:16:42.600 --> 00:16:47.480
really good. Does she write her
own stuff? No? Is every song

251
00:16:47.559 --> 00:16:52.320
got twenty five fucking songwriters on it? Yeah? You know, jay Z's

252
00:16:52.399 --> 00:16:56.480
cool. I don't know. But
again, who's overrated? You know?

253
00:16:56.559 --> 00:17:03.279
It's it's hard because if you just
think Miley Cyrus is some pop tart and

254
00:17:03.359 --> 00:17:07.559
you see her out bouncing around to
all these awards shows and she's singing,

255
00:17:07.599 --> 00:17:10.079
it's like, oh, why why
is this girl? Like? Why is

256
00:17:10.079 --> 00:17:12.680
she the go to girl? You
know why? Because she's fucking amazing.

257
00:17:12.880 --> 00:17:17.359
She's great, you know, she's
amazing. I don't think she's she's overrated.

258
00:17:18.880 --> 00:17:22.640
I don't know. I don't know
who's overrated? Is Justin Bieber overrated?

259
00:17:23.759 --> 00:17:29.279
Can he sing? Can he sing? I don't know. Maybe Spears

260
00:17:29.319 --> 00:17:33.720
is overrated? Britney Spears, Oh
yeah, she can't say Britney Spears overrated?

261
00:17:33.920 --> 00:17:41.240
Worse than bors Queen. I think
Britney Spears is just sad and laughable

262
00:17:41.359 --> 00:17:44.279
right now? Oh now, oh
no, that that that chick needs to

263
00:17:44.319 --> 00:17:48.079
be back in fucking conservative ship man. I mean that she's a mess,

264
00:17:48.119 --> 00:17:51.599
she's a hot mess. She she's
she's yeah, this is I don't think

265
00:17:51.640 --> 00:17:55.720
it's gonna end well for her.
It doesn't look good. I don't wish

266
00:17:55.400 --> 00:17:57.160
her. I think somebody just sent
me something today that she might be getting

267
00:17:57.319 --> 00:18:02.000
separated from that new husband. Yeah, no, shit, maybe breaking news

268
00:18:02.039 --> 00:18:04.720
here on the Playpants podcast. Wow, we are nothing like a couple of

269
00:18:04.759 --> 00:18:07.599
old, white bald dudes talking about
Beyonce. Though, by the way,

270
00:18:07.599 --> 00:18:11.880
that doesn't make much sense. Okay, Is there a musician that's overrated?

271
00:18:12.039 --> 00:18:15.319
Is there a guy out there that's
thought of? And it's like, you

272
00:18:15.359 --> 00:18:19.680
know what, like Bob Dylan doesn't
speak to me, you know, for

273
00:18:19.759 --> 00:18:25.880
me, he's not the voice of
my generation. And I don't understand because

274
00:18:25.880 --> 00:18:29.200
he can't sing his way out of
a paper bag. But it's personal preference

275
00:18:29.240 --> 00:18:33.839
again, you know. But is
he rated a little too high? Oh?

276
00:18:33.880 --> 00:18:37.519
I would say, you know what, a little too high because he

277
00:18:37.680 --> 00:18:40.079
you know, shit's in a brown
paper bag and he's on the cover of

278
00:18:40.160 --> 00:18:41.359
Rolling Stone. Every new album he
puts out, they're like, oh my

279
00:18:41.400 --> 00:18:44.920
god, Dylan's got a new album. And I'm like, right, it's

280
00:18:44.960 --> 00:18:48.519
not good, but it's getting But
it's personal preference, you know, Right,

281
00:18:48.599 --> 00:18:52.640
does anybody think Lars al Rick is
a really good drummer? I don't

282
00:18:52.680 --> 00:18:55.720
know, he's not. You know, if if he winds up on a

283
00:18:55.759 --> 00:18:59.720
great metal drummer list, he's overrated. If he's in any kind of a

284
00:18:59.720 --> 00:19:03.039
list, he's overrated. Like that
would be a particular that would be a

285
00:19:03.200 --> 00:19:06.119
rating. If he wound up on
a list. If you show me a

286
00:19:06.160 --> 00:19:10.200
list of Lars all Rich and he's
in the top twenty five metal drummer list,

287
00:19:11.319 --> 00:19:15.680
it's that's an overrating. Well,
okay, you know, I know

288
00:19:15.720 --> 00:19:18.319
you love to do this one all
the time because we've we've brought this one

289
00:19:18.400 --> 00:19:22.480
up many episodes. You know,
Anthony ketis overrated singer. You know he

290
00:19:22.559 --> 00:19:26.640
can't. He's not on any best
singer list, so we know that.

291
00:19:27.039 --> 00:19:33.759
I don't think he think he's rated. He's not overrated. Nobody has rated

292
00:19:33.839 --> 00:19:37.480
him. I would love I wonder
if there's like you know, he has

293
00:19:37.519 --> 00:19:41.079
to know, right, I mean, you know, you just know at

294
00:19:41.079 --> 00:19:42.839
this point he must have had conversation. He's like, I'm sorry, guys,

295
00:19:42.880 --> 00:19:45.920
I just can't say. I mean, he tries, he works the

296
00:19:45.960 --> 00:19:51.880
best singer in the band called the
Red Hot Chili Peppers, John F.

297
00:19:52.000 --> 00:19:56.279
Shaunte It can sing better than him. Oh buy a mile? Yeah,

298
00:19:56.359 --> 00:19:57.799
you know they used always say that
about Ringo. Ringo wasn't even the best

299
00:19:57.880 --> 00:20:03.640
drummer in the Beatles, you know, which is so funny. Anthony is

300
00:20:03.680 --> 00:20:08.279
not the best singer in that band. That that is funny. But is

301
00:20:08.319 --> 00:20:14.400
he responsible for the sound and the
style and the presentation and all of that.

302
00:20:14.480 --> 00:20:18.519
Of course he is correct, of
course he is. Yeah, you're

303
00:20:18.559 --> 00:20:22.839
gonna get us in trouble on this
list. I just I don't I just

304
00:20:22.839 --> 00:20:26.880
don't understand what overrated means. Okay, it's just hard, like you know,

305
00:20:27.400 --> 00:20:30.720
I mean, if you put me
in a band and taught me a

306
00:20:30.720 --> 00:20:34.000
few chords, and I and in
the band and have gone to number one

307
00:20:34.119 --> 00:20:37.960
and had a couple of hits.
Yeah, that's not fair. That's not

308
00:20:37.960 --> 00:20:41.640
good. I'm sure there's plenty of
musicians out there that have written the coat

309
00:20:41.680 --> 00:20:45.319
tails of a great singer, and
maybe they're underrated or overrated. You know,

310
00:20:45.559 --> 00:20:48.559
that's different, right, It's just
not that's just a lack of talent

311
00:20:48.559 --> 00:20:52.519
and get lucky. If we want
to get maybe we should do this,

312
00:20:52.559 --> 00:20:55.160
maybe this is these are the kind
of list that we should be doing.

313
00:20:55.400 --> 00:20:57.039
And you know, the number one, you know, overrated band of all

314
00:20:57.039 --> 00:21:00.480
time, the Beatles. I mean, really, what did they ever really

315
00:21:00.519 --> 00:21:07.119
do? I mean, if you
really break apart those three chords, what

316
00:21:07.160 --> 00:21:12.000
did they create? Nothing? Really
nothing? You really couldn't tear apart anybody

317
00:21:12.039 --> 00:21:15.559
though. I mean, and there's
people that are way smarter than us,

318
00:21:15.599 --> 00:21:21.640
which is everybody. I imagine you
could sit there and dissect every single band

319
00:21:21.640 --> 00:21:26.480
out there and tell me why they're
overrated. You know, you're the biggest

320
00:21:26.480 --> 00:21:30.039
band in the world for a reason. You're pretty good. Well, you

321
00:21:30.039 --> 00:21:33.680
can't be fooling. You can't fool
all the people all the time. You

322
00:21:33.759 --> 00:21:40.400
just can't. And Beyonce's playing stadiums, so obviously she's wicked talented, correct,

323
00:21:40.400 --> 00:21:44.480
I just you know, there's just
something that just all right. When

324
00:21:44.519 --> 00:21:47.920
she announced her privacy, She's like, look at my baby. Yeah,

325
00:21:48.000 --> 00:21:52.559
look OK. But is that a
product of that? Is that her?

326
00:21:52.640 --> 00:21:53.640
Is that it is a product of
the times we're in right now. With

327
00:21:53.680 --> 00:21:56.880
social media, everyone's gonna make a
big fucking deal out of everything they do.

328
00:21:56.960 --> 00:22:00.880
You know, the whole gender Revealed
parties where they've blown out of proportion.

329
00:22:02.119 --> 00:22:04.559
It's like, what are you doing? Who gives a shit? Man,

330
00:22:04.640 --> 00:22:08.240
Well you had that for dinner.
Congratulations, Wow you can make macaroni

331
00:22:08.240 --> 00:22:11.200
and cheese. You dip shit,
you know what I mean? Like,

332
00:22:11.279 --> 00:22:14.920
I think that's part of the product
of the environment that we're in too.

333
00:22:15.160 --> 00:22:19.319
I don't know. I still I
saw it Beyonce years ago, and holy

334
00:22:19.359 --> 00:22:25.359
shit, dude, Wow, what
a show. What a show? I

335
00:22:25.359 --> 00:22:30.319
mean, hands down unbelievable from beginning
to end. She's but but you know,

336
00:22:30.519 --> 00:22:34.160
like seeing so many artists we've seen
over the years, right, you've

337
00:22:34.160 --> 00:22:37.960
probably been in the same situation where
like you might go see a band that

338
00:22:37.000 --> 00:22:41.160
you like a lot, but it
feels mechanical because they're just doing their set.

339
00:22:41.599 --> 00:22:45.279
It doesn't they they're not selling it
as something that's really badass where you're

340
00:22:45.279 --> 00:22:48.720
really taking with they're not really blowing
your minds. Right, everyone wants everyone

341
00:22:48.720 --> 00:22:52.440
everyone's gonna set because you're gonna cocordate
with the lights and all the bullshit that

342
00:22:52.440 --> 00:22:55.240
goes with a show. Right,
every band does that. But you wanted

343
00:22:55.240 --> 00:22:57.480
to feel organic and real. You
know. I even got to the point

344
00:22:57.480 --> 00:23:00.359
where I was watching Van Haler,
you know, not to shoot on kiss,

345
00:23:00.440 --> 00:23:03.839
but god damn if I didn't know
when the blood was coming or the

346
00:23:03.839 --> 00:23:07.160
fire was coming out of the guitar. I mean, you just but it's

347
00:23:07.200 --> 00:23:10.880
a show. But it was great
every time. And for someone who'd never

348
00:23:10.920 --> 00:23:15.519
seen the band, You're like,
what, that's awesome. So it just

349
00:23:15.559 --> 00:23:18.559
doesn't feel organic, you know.
I think maybe that's part of the problem

350
00:23:18.599 --> 00:23:23.319
with Beyonce. It all feels very
stage, very particular, just the just

351
00:23:23.400 --> 00:23:26.680
the formula. All right, I
got you, I got you what you

352
00:23:26.680 --> 00:23:30.680
said you brought something in because I'm
gonna tell everybody what top five you turned

353
00:23:30.720 --> 00:23:33.920
down today. God damn it.
I'm always in trouble. Uh No,

354
00:23:34.039 --> 00:23:37.319
it's funny. I was just and
this just happened a little while ago.

355
00:23:37.680 --> 00:23:41.079
I was talking to my wife downstairs
and we were talking. That wasn't oh

356
00:23:41.160 --> 00:23:44.920
she's She's like, she's like,
yeah, you know. My my nephew

357
00:23:45.480 --> 00:23:53.240
went to kindergarten today and he was
wearing a band T shirt. I think

358
00:23:53.279 --> 00:23:56.799
it was the red He was wearing
the Red at Chili Peppers, small little

359
00:23:56.839 --> 00:24:00.640
Red at Chili Peppers T shirt to
school kindergarten. I'm like rock singer in

360
00:24:00.680 --> 00:24:04.680
the waking awesome right, and then
I'm like, I'm like, well that's

361
00:24:04.759 --> 00:24:08.039
badass, and I'm like, well, my son today went to school this

362
00:24:08.039 --> 00:24:11.839
first year in high school, he's
wearing a very I think it was a

363
00:24:11.839 --> 00:24:14.440
food Fighters shirt you got him?
Did you get him a food Fighters shirt?

364
00:24:15.160 --> 00:24:18.720
You got him something food Fighters did? I can't remember what it is.

365
00:24:18.119 --> 00:24:22.079
Getting a lot obviously. Anyway,
he's wearing a Food Fighters T shirt

366
00:24:22.119 --> 00:24:23.039
to school. He wore a Chili
Peppers the other day. He's got a

367
00:24:23.079 --> 00:24:26.920
Beastie Boys shirt. And I'm sitting
there, I go, fuck all that.

368
00:24:27.000 --> 00:24:30.640
Man. I said, I was
wearing fucking granimals when I went to

369
00:24:30.720 --> 00:24:33.680
school. Dude, there were no
cool rock shirts when I was going to

370
00:24:34.079 --> 00:24:38.759
elementary or middle school. But okay, you're right, like the little guy,

371
00:24:40.079 --> 00:24:44.400
the nephew, I can understand.
Yeah, like our parents weren't cool.

372
00:24:44.799 --> 00:24:48.079
Our parents weren't cool. Our parents
weren't putting us in you know,

373
00:24:48.119 --> 00:24:51.279
the music that they liked in those
T shirts, right, they weren't is

374
00:24:51.279 --> 00:24:55.000
readily available either. So I guess
that's Fred Henry your son starting high school.

375
00:24:55.440 --> 00:24:57.440
Boom. Of course you know you
were wearing ship like that in high

376
00:24:57.480 --> 00:25:03.319
school. But the little guy,
no, our parents our parents didn't.

377
00:25:03.359 --> 00:25:07.119
Our parents didn't care about being cool. No, it didn't care about us

378
00:25:07.119 --> 00:25:10.759
looking cool. They didn't care.
I mean fuck, I had an older

379
00:25:10.839 --> 00:25:14.480
sister. I wore hand me downs
from my sister. You think my mom

380
00:25:14.559 --> 00:25:18.559
gave a shit about one person saying, like a winner coat. There's a

381
00:25:18.599 --> 00:25:22.279
picture of me and my sister were
shoveling and the coat that I'm wearing was

382
00:25:22.319 --> 00:25:27.839
my sisters. My mom did not
give a shit if one person said to

383
00:25:27.880 --> 00:25:32.319
me, ha ha, that was
your sister's coat you're wearing yep, and

384
00:25:32.359 --> 00:25:34.400
punched me in the face. My
mom would not care, Like I don't

385
00:25:34.440 --> 00:25:37.720
care. It's a good coat,
you're wearing it. It works, You're

386
00:25:37.720 --> 00:25:40.720
not gonna die, It doesn't matter. Yeah, no it. I always

387
00:25:40.720 --> 00:25:44.319
felt bad because I was the older
brother and my poor my poor brother,

388
00:25:44.480 --> 00:25:48.640
younger brother. I'd wear ship and
then there it'd be on him, man,

389
00:25:48.720 --> 00:25:51.200
and it's just what he had to
deal with, you know. That's

390
00:25:51.200 --> 00:25:52.640
the way it was. A poor
guy would be and I would get like

391
00:25:52.680 --> 00:25:56.240
older cousins shit. So it was
always you were always pushing clothes around the

392
00:25:56.240 --> 00:26:00.720
family, man, because it was
like anyone had a kid boom. Okay,

393
00:26:00.799 --> 00:26:03.960
well we'll take Jason stuff because I
was like the oldest kind of kid

394
00:26:03.000 --> 00:26:07.680
in the immediate family. So that
would go over to here, to cousins

395
00:26:07.680 --> 00:26:10.160
and this, and I would get
stuff from older cousins to me. And

396
00:26:10.680 --> 00:26:14.440
clothes got a lot of use back
in the day. You know, you

397
00:26:14.559 --> 00:26:17.240
didn't just wear a shirt for a
couple of months and then gone. I

398
00:26:17.359 --> 00:26:22.119
then got some mileage on it.
Everybody's wearing brand new clothes first day of

399
00:26:22.160 --> 00:26:26.680
school. It's awesome. Everyone's you
know, stepping on your sneakers because they're

400
00:26:26.720 --> 00:26:27.960
brand new. You're like, fuck, dude, get off by sneakers.

401
00:26:27.960 --> 00:26:30.559
Come on, you know, because
for the longest, you know, white

402
00:26:30.599 --> 00:26:34.039
sneakers were such a big thing.
You know, some guy would come up

403
00:26:34.039 --> 00:26:37.079
and step on him, be like, fuck, dude, my mom's gonna

404
00:26:37.119 --> 00:26:41.240
kill me. I just got these. First day of high school. High

405
00:26:41.279 --> 00:26:45.960
school for me was ten eleven and
twelve yep, So first day of high

406
00:26:45.960 --> 00:26:56.559
school, Jason ginty seven eighty eighty
five. I go into school on that

407
00:26:56.640 --> 00:26:59.480
first day. A lot of pressure, man, because the seniors are big

408
00:26:59.480 --> 00:27:03.200
deal. You know. I can
only even imagine like what it's like for

409
00:27:03.480 --> 00:27:07.920
Henry's in ninth grade, right correct, ninth the difference between the ninth grade

410
00:27:07.960 --> 00:27:11.200
or and a senior. I was
nervous about seniors and I was in tenth

411
00:27:11.200 --> 00:27:18.480
grade. But I wore a ninety
seven Rock t shirt nice. I remember

412
00:27:18.559 --> 00:27:22.559
specifically, I wore a ninety seven
rock t shirt my first day in high

413
00:27:22.599 --> 00:27:26.480
school. It's a black shirt,
it's got the cool ninety seven rock logo

414
00:27:26.559 --> 00:27:30.799
on it. That was the It's
I think our whole lives. It's just

415
00:27:30.839 --> 00:27:33.559
been a classic rock station. They
kind of maybe played some active stuff,

416
00:27:34.720 --> 00:27:40.440
some current stuff, maybe way back
in the day. But that was me

417
00:27:41.039 --> 00:27:45.440
making my statement, you're dealing with
a rocker here, You're dealing with the

418
00:27:45.519 --> 00:27:51.039
rocker. Look out, I'll play
the drums on your face. I wanted

419
00:27:51.039 --> 00:27:52.319
everybody to know this is who you
have coming to your school. Now.

420
00:27:52.680 --> 00:27:59.400
I'm fucking the shit. Okay,
I am the tits. I fucking listened

421
00:27:59.440 --> 00:28:03.519
to ninety seven rock. I'm a
rocker. I'm here for it. Who's

422
00:28:03.559 --> 00:28:06.599
with me? Yeah, but here's
the problem with that. Then when it

423
00:28:06.640 --> 00:28:15.039
got cold or walk around your sister's
fucking jacket. Yeah, underneath, I'm

424
00:28:15.039 --> 00:28:19.640
a badass. I remember stressing out
that first day of school. I remember

425
00:28:19.680 --> 00:28:23.519
stressing out and I thought that was
my best option. The ninety seven Rock

426
00:28:23.559 --> 00:28:27.680
logo. There was a station here. That logo was ripped off from a

427
00:28:27.759 --> 00:28:33.640
station here. I believe that was
ninety seven Rock before. And I don't

428
00:28:33.680 --> 00:28:40.839
know who had the logo first,
but I do know that Andy Travis,

429
00:28:41.200 --> 00:28:45.960
the program director of w KRP and
Cincinnati, had that bumper sticker on his

430
00:28:47.079 --> 00:28:49.839
wall in his office. WHOA,
that's kid, the ninety seven rock logo.

431
00:28:49.880 --> 00:28:52.480
Now, whether it was the Houston
one or the Buffalo one, I

432
00:28:52.599 --> 00:28:56.680
think you know, everybody in Buffalo
would claim that it was the Buffalo one.

433
00:28:56.759 --> 00:28:59.920
But if you remember his office,
he had bumper stickers from radio stations

434
00:29:00.039 --> 00:29:03.680
all across America. You can see
the ninety seven Rock one in his office.

435
00:29:03.240 --> 00:29:04.880
Back of the day, he used
to have those two. Now,

436
00:29:04.920 --> 00:29:08.839
who's got bumper stickers anymore? Because
nobody puts shit in their cars unless it's

437
00:29:08.880 --> 00:29:12.920
that weird chalk outlined family on the
window. That's all you put on the

438
00:29:12.920 --> 00:29:17.720
back of your window nowadays. You
know, my kid, my kid beat

439
00:29:17.839 --> 00:29:21.319
up your honor student, that's always
a good one. Or Kelvin pissing on

440
00:29:21.400 --> 00:29:23.359
something. That was about all you
got on windows anymore. Man, It's

441
00:29:23.440 --> 00:29:26.720
that's a bit messed up. Yeah, no, it was just weird.

442
00:29:26.759 --> 00:29:29.920
I asked. I asked my son. I said, hey, man,

443
00:29:30.680 --> 00:29:33.000
are like seniors got beards and shit. He goes, oh, yeah,

444
00:29:33.000 --> 00:29:37.519
they're monsters. He goes, are
just monsters. They're huge and every big

445
00:29:37.599 --> 00:29:38.759
kid. Yeah he goes. He
goes, yeah, I gotta steer away

446
00:29:38.759 --> 00:29:42.240
from him. He goes. First
day. First day, he goes out

447
00:29:42.279 --> 00:29:45.680
to lunch, and they'd have like
a lunch room, but then they got

448
00:29:45.720 --> 00:29:49.720
like this big ass courtyard. So
it's an outdoor courtyard, so you can

449
00:29:49.799 --> 00:29:52.960
go in get your lunch. You
can either sit at the tables in the

450
00:29:52.000 --> 00:29:56.519
courtyard outside, you can sit in
the lunch room. So he's, yeah,

451
00:29:56.640 --> 00:30:00.839
well, high school is basically just
a nicer version of prison. If

452
00:30:00.880 --> 00:30:03.839
you really think about it, you
boil it down. And he walks in

453
00:30:03.920 --> 00:30:06.559
and he gets his lunch, and
he comes out and he's like looking around

454
00:30:06.599 --> 00:30:08.039
for a table and he sits down, and some senior comes up and goes,

455
00:30:08.359 --> 00:30:14.119
get your asshole over there on the
bench. Really, he's just like,

456
00:30:14.200 --> 00:30:17.200
okay, see it, and boom
he goes. Yeah, the freshman

457
00:30:17.240 --> 00:30:19.200
all sit on like the you know, they got like trees and landscaping and

458
00:30:19.200 --> 00:30:22.720
shit. And like the little brick
shelves or you know, I think the

459
00:30:22.160 --> 00:30:25.680
perimeter, so you like little benches. He's like, oh, the freshman

460
00:30:25.720 --> 00:30:30.079
are sitting there cutting their fucking meat, sit with their plates on their labor.

461
00:30:30.359 --> 00:30:32.799
They don't get the tables. They
see the table, they get the

462
00:30:32.839 --> 00:30:34.960
tables. Okay, freshman ain't getting
so that. He was saying that there

463
00:30:36.039 --> 00:30:37.119
was a line. There was a
couple, because they got a couple different

464
00:30:37.119 --> 00:30:41.119
lines in the lunch room. Right. One was like some shit, he

465
00:30:41.400 --> 00:30:44.640
didn't want to eat and he really
wanted a cheeseburger. They got a cheeseburger.

466
00:30:44.799 --> 00:30:45.960
They just served cheeseburgers every day.
That's what you're eat. You can

467
00:30:47.000 --> 00:30:49.599
be Elvius and get cheeseburgers every day, but they usually serve something different every

468
00:30:49.680 --> 00:30:52.799
day. And another line, he
said, the second day or third day

469
00:30:52.839 --> 00:30:56.720
of school, he's like standing in
the one line, he's like, fun,

470
00:30:56.799 --> 00:31:00.519
I really want a cheeseburger. Well, the line the cheeseburgers was almost

471
00:31:00.559 --> 00:31:04.319
all seniors, right, and he
goes he's like fuck this, and he

472
00:31:04.359 --> 00:31:07.599
goes over and he stands in line
with the seniors, right, and he's

473
00:31:07.599 --> 00:31:10.720
standing there with all his buddies who
are freshmen in line for lunch and they're

474
00:31:10.720 --> 00:31:12.759
all looking at him, going,
what are you doing? Man? Oh

475
00:31:12.839 --> 00:31:15.559
my god. He's like what,
I'm just standing in line. And he's

476
00:31:15.599 --> 00:31:21.000
like, I like, broke some
weird code and rule and nobody said shit

477
00:31:21.119 --> 00:31:22.519
to me. He goes, nobody
gave a shit. I said, yeah,

478
00:31:22.559 --> 00:31:25.440
but if you said's funny, sit
down at the table, bro,

479
00:31:25.519 --> 00:31:29.119
You're done, that's funny. Yeah. I'm like, wow, I'm so.

480
00:31:29.319 --> 00:31:32.799
I'm reliving all these nightmares of my
own high school experience through my kid.

481
00:31:32.960 --> 00:31:40.880
It's terrible. I don't recommend it
for anyone. It's awful in the

482
00:31:41.000 --> 00:31:45.079
high school halls, in the backs
of cars. I don't even know the

483
00:31:45.079 --> 00:31:51.279
words subdivisions, rushions, little drummy, but you know, I get it.

484
00:31:52.440 --> 00:31:55.200
Dude. Let's you want to do
the eighties thing after this? Or

485
00:31:55.200 --> 00:31:57.960
you want to do the go right
in the inn access shit? Oh well,

486
00:31:59.240 --> 00:32:07.480
it's just the other thing that I
sent Jake was Kevin Rowland is having

487
00:32:07.480 --> 00:32:15.319
a birthday on Thursday. When this
podcast debuts on August seventeen, Kevin Rowland

488
00:32:15.559 --> 00:32:20.839
is seventy years old. And that's
okay. There won't be a quiz.

489
00:32:21.319 --> 00:32:24.599
He's the lead singer of Dexi's Midnight
Runners. Come on, Eileen, Oh,

490
00:32:24.759 --> 00:32:28.960
yes, famous famous song played at
all this high school dances. Actually,

491
00:32:29.440 --> 00:32:35.119
so my question is because just in
case you just did not have any

492
00:32:35.160 --> 00:32:37.880
interest at all in an excess,
I always try to have a backup plan,

493
00:32:37.440 --> 00:32:45.440
and I thought best one hit wonders. Is there any denying that if

494
00:32:45.480 --> 00:32:49.960
you do a top five one hit
wonder list, Come on, Eileen,

495
00:32:50.279 --> 00:32:53.400
absolutely has to be in that top
five yes or no? Wow? I

496
00:32:53.400 --> 00:32:59.039
mean yeah, because it's because our
lists are your favorite. Then you could

497
00:32:59.039 --> 00:33:04.720
easily say no. But I'd have
a hard time accepting a top five one

498
00:33:04.839 --> 00:33:07.160
hit wonder list without that song on
there. How you could do that?

499
00:33:07.599 --> 00:33:10.440
Yeah, come on, Eileen,
you could do don't you forget about me?

500
00:33:12.039 --> 00:33:15.319
You could throw in uh tainted Love. I mean that's three of just

501
00:33:15.319 --> 00:33:20.160
from the eighties right there. That's
the thing about one hit wonders. Mine

502
00:33:20.160 --> 00:33:24.240
are all lumped into the same three
years, you know, Turning Japanese by

503
00:33:24.240 --> 00:33:31.640
the Vapors, brilliant song, Yeah, Devo Whippett, Gary Newman Cars,

504
00:33:31.920 --> 00:33:36.720
They're all like they're all just like
old like new wave eighties songs, you

505
00:33:36.759 --> 00:33:40.000
know, But if you look at
it is the biggest one hit wonder of

506
00:33:40.039 --> 00:33:49.599
all time, the macarena we style
we do that probably is the biggest as

507
00:33:49.640 --> 00:33:52.160
far as YouTube hits. Yeah and
stuff. That's why we always do our

508
00:33:52.200 --> 00:33:55.839
favorites and not the biggest because we
don't give a shit that Gangham style or

509
00:33:57.119 --> 00:33:59.920
you know who let the dogs out. I'm not putting that on my fuck

510
00:34:00.039 --> 00:34:02.960
and lists back that ass up.
God, we are so straight right now,

511
00:34:04.039 --> 00:34:07.240
baby got back? Yeah, yeah, you could do an ice ice

512
00:34:07.319 --> 00:34:13.000
baby bust a move. Funky Cold
Medina, Oh my god, we're gonna

513
00:34:13.000 --> 00:34:15.440
be here all night. Holy shit, this is great. You know you

514
00:34:15.440 --> 00:34:17.639
could go a little cooler and do
like Funky Comadina. He had a follow

515
00:34:17.719 --> 00:34:22.280
up hit, he did she had
a follow up hit? Uh, Funky

516
00:34:22.320 --> 00:34:27.280
cole Meadina. Oh well, wild
Thing was the first. Stild Thing was

517
00:34:27.360 --> 00:34:30.599
first, Yeah, okay, I
feel Funky Cole Medina was the second song.

518
00:34:30.920 --> 00:34:34.440
So he he's a two. He's
a two solid two hit wonder.

519
00:34:34.599 --> 00:34:38.000
What was the biz Markey song We're
Just Friends? Got what I Need?

520
00:34:38.480 --> 00:34:43.199
Yeah? That song she can you
tell Me just a friend? You could

521
00:34:43.239 --> 00:34:47.079
bust out the violent fems blister in
the sun. Yeah, that would count.

522
00:34:47.280 --> 00:34:50.360
That would count. I mean,
there's gonna be some nerd that like,

523
00:34:50.400 --> 00:34:54.519
oh dude, everybody knows this song. Sure they don't know Gordon Gano

524
00:34:54.519 --> 00:34:57.920
on here or whatever. I'm not
from Milwaukee, come on, I don't

525
00:34:57.920 --> 00:35:01.760

527
00:35:07.320 --> 00:35:09.519

And when I say now, I don't

542
00:36:05.599 --> 00:36:09.599
mean in twenty minutes. I don't
mean tomorrow. I mean now. On

543
00:36:09.679 --> 00:36:17.320
the world famous Rod Ryan Show page
at the buzz dot com. You know,

544
00:36:17.360 --> 00:36:22.480
it's fun when we do the top
fives. It's usually fairly simple.

545
00:36:22.559 --> 00:36:24.760
I'll do a little research and bang, bang bang, I'll knock out the

546
00:36:24.800 --> 00:36:29.519
five tunes. No problem. Right, It's it's maybe five ten minutes of

547
00:36:29.559 --> 00:36:32.320
Google and some shit. Right in
excess, I dove in. I started

548
00:36:32.320 --> 00:36:37.239
watching videos, videos that I've never
seen before, and I started kind of

549
00:36:37.280 --> 00:36:39.599
going through their catalog a little bit
more. Now I didn't have all day,

550
00:36:39.840 --> 00:36:44.280
but I spent maybe twelve minutes,
which is a lot more than normal.

551
00:36:45.000 --> 00:36:46.360
And damn it, dude, you're
right. I became and like I

552
00:36:46.360 --> 00:36:52.039
said earlier, I've come to in
excess later in life, when my appreciation

553
00:36:52.239 --> 00:36:57.320
I grew up, right, my
palette expanded. It wasn't just eating meat

554
00:36:57.320 --> 00:37:00.719
and potatoes every day with my hair
metal. I've expanded, and I continue

555
00:37:00.719 --> 00:37:04.440
to expand this day. I'm a
Harry Styles fan. Now, what can

556
00:37:04.480 --> 00:37:10.199
I say? Would it be fair
if you had to describe Michael Hutchins as

557
00:37:10.239 --> 00:37:16.280
a cross between Mick Jagger, Iggy
Pop and Jim Morrison. Perfect? Yeah,

558
00:37:16.400 --> 00:37:22.599
thanks, you welcome. Perfect.
I just back in the day again,

559
00:37:22.760 --> 00:37:29.440
going off when I knew when I
was young and stupid or I think

560
00:37:29.440 --> 00:37:30.199
he was just a pretty boy to
me, I was like, who's this

561
00:37:30.320 --> 00:37:34.360
asshole? Who are these guys trying
to be? You? Two? Although

562
00:37:34.360 --> 00:37:37.239
they were kind of same time period, you know, I'm like, it

563
00:37:37.320 --> 00:37:39.519
kind of felt that way back back
then. I kind of thought that.

564
00:37:39.559 --> 00:37:45.280
And the Duran Durand reference you had
earlier, great reference as well. Man,

565
00:37:45.320 --> 00:37:49.239
As I got older, I dug
in excess because I realized later in

566
00:37:49.280 --> 00:37:52.239
life the girls liked in excess.
So guess who got to become a fan

567
00:37:52.440 --> 00:37:55.639
more of in excess. Yeah,
that's how it works, Rod, girls

568
00:37:55.679 --> 00:38:00.519
will do it every time. Yeah, follow the ass, Follow the ass.

569
00:38:00.599 --> 00:38:04.400
That should be in a Hallmark card. Dude, that's good advice.

570
00:38:04.440 --> 00:38:06.280
I like that. I probably won't
give that to my son, by the

571
00:38:06.320 --> 00:38:14.719
way. Michael Hutchins died November twenty
second, nineteen ninety seven. That night

572
00:38:15.280 --> 00:38:22.639
I was in the then called the
Louisiana Superdome and I had gone to the

573
00:38:22.719 --> 00:38:27.320
U two concert and I had heard
that Michael Hutchins died on my way out

574
00:38:27.440 --> 00:38:30.800
listening to our radio station. Might
have been John Marty talking about it on

575
00:38:30.840 --> 00:38:37.159
the radio, But yeah, I
mean there's a huge connection between in Access

576
00:38:37.159 --> 00:38:39.320
and you two. I mean,
Bono and him were really really close and

577
00:38:39.360 --> 00:38:43.400
everything, and then you got you
know, Bob Geldoff, and it was

578
00:38:43.519 --> 00:38:45.280
there was a mess there going on. There was a crazy mess going on,

579
00:38:46.079 --> 00:38:51.159
and Michael Hutchins was a mess at
the end of his life. I

580
00:38:51.199 --> 00:38:58.000
had always heard. And we're gonna
have to ask our our PD friend Vince.

581
00:38:59.039 --> 00:39:02.719
I think he could have got in
Excess cheap on that first Mojo Music

582
00:39:02.760 --> 00:39:07.280
Festival, and he said that seems
out of place. I think he could

583
00:39:07.280 --> 00:39:10.519
have got them, and that would
have been my opportunity to see in Excess.

584
00:39:10.599 --> 00:39:15.280
I never saw him live. Wow, I never saw them live.

585
00:39:15.360 --> 00:39:19.000
And if it wasn't him, then
it was Dave Stewart. I'll ask them.

586
00:39:19.039 --> 00:39:22.800
I'll ask both of them, because
I just recently texted both of them,

587
00:39:22.840 --> 00:39:27.199
and I'll ask hey, did you
guys pass up in excess on the

588
00:39:27.320 --> 00:39:30.159
cheap on one of our festivals.
Well, because you really do think that

589
00:39:30.199 --> 00:39:36.119
happened, and I'm so angry that
they said no to it. Now I

590
00:39:36.159 --> 00:39:38.880
get it, it would have sounded
weird, but you know it's a we

591
00:39:38.960 --> 00:39:43.440
look at festivals now. Even back
then, when we were doing festivals in

592
00:39:43.440 --> 00:39:45.039
the nineties, you know, everything
had to make sense. There was no

593
00:39:45.159 --> 00:39:49.440
like fluff or fringey, Let's just
put this guy on because it would be

594
00:39:49.440 --> 00:39:52.440
cool. You know, they didn't
do that. You know, they didn't

595
00:39:52.480 --> 00:39:53.679
have a rock show and then like, let's just put jay Z up there

596
00:39:53.679 --> 00:39:57.760
for a couple of tunes, people
will go crazy. It wasn't like that.

597
00:39:58.039 --> 00:40:00.119
Everything had to make sense. So
in a would have been a little

598
00:40:00.119 --> 00:40:07.519
outside because they were already you know, ninety you know, Nirvana's out already

599
00:40:07.559 --> 00:40:10.880
eight years. But I think we
could have got him on the cheap and

600
00:40:10.920 --> 00:40:14.599
had him on a show man.
Hey, that would have been cool for

601
00:40:14.639 --> 00:40:16.280
a few people. But again,
at that time, they weren't exactly hot,

602
00:40:16.519 --> 00:40:20.039
you know what I mean. So
that's that's why that they were.

603
00:40:20.079 --> 00:40:22.280
They were ready to work. They
were ready to come out and do a

604
00:40:22.320 --> 00:40:24.599
show and just they were ready to
do that sort of thing. God's terrible,

605
00:40:24.599 --> 00:40:28.480
man, It's terrible, terrible,
terrible stuff. But at the time,

606
00:40:29.480 --> 00:40:31.440
looking back on it, man,
I tell you what, Michael Hutchins,

607
00:40:31.880 --> 00:40:35.800
that was. That was your rock
star. Man. That dude was

608
00:40:36.039 --> 00:40:42.480
handsome. Holy shit, wow,
I mean cantivating. He was so captivating

609
00:40:42.559 --> 00:40:45.440
and you just couldn't take your eyes
off of him. And you know,

610
00:40:46.400 --> 00:40:51.159
you would have to mention in that
those three guys that you mentioned. You

611
00:40:51.239 --> 00:40:55.599
gotta put Elvis in there. That
that charisma, that young Elvis and even

612
00:40:55.639 --> 00:41:00.760
old Elvis, the charisma. There's
just that, you know, I know

613
00:41:00.840 --> 00:41:04.840
the TV show you know is X
Factor, but before that, there was

614
00:41:04.880 --> 00:41:07.840
a thing called you know, there's
that X factor, and he had that

615
00:41:07.920 --> 00:41:15.280
thing where he's just so unbelievably dynamic
and just the coolest fucking dude. You

616
00:41:15.320 --> 00:41:19.440
know, kind of how we talked
a little bit about Chris Cornell had that

617
00:41:19.519 --> 00:41:22.400
thing that he just was like the
fucking smoothest, coolest guy every room he

618
00:41:22.559 --> 00:41:27.440
was in. Michael Hutchins was like
that too. You know, it's early

619
00:41:27.519 --> 00:41:31.000
on and early on that early eighties
stuff which is going to play into my

620
00:41:31.039 --> 00:41:37.000
list. He had it from jump. He had it from the get go,

621
00:41:37.519 --> 00:41:42.320
the later stuff when the when the
MTV video's really kicking in and stuff,

622
00:41:42.320 --> 00:41:44.760
and he's got the long hair and
he's just a damn rock star.

623
00:41:45.159 --> 00:41:47.239
You watch the videos and you're looking
at him and I'm like, why are

624
00:41:47.239 --> 00:41:51.840
you even bothering to show the rest
of the dorks in that band? Those

625
00:41:51.840 --> 00:41:55.719
are great musicians, but my god, man, like it's like standing around

626
00:41:58.000 --> 00:42:01.360
next to Michael Hudgins, what's the
boy? There's no reason nobody cares.

627
00:42:01.599 --> 00:42:04.920
I mean, you gotta give each
guy a FaceTime. And there, Oh,

628
00:42:05.000 --> 00:42:07.639
here's the drummer. Click andy klack, you know what I mean.

629
00:42:07.719 --> 00:42:09.239
No, here's the bass player.
Doom boom boom. Okay, great,

630
00:42:09.239 --> 00:42:13.280
Now back to Hutchins, Like,
you're like, why are they even in

631
00:42:13.320 --> 00:42:15.519
the in the video shot? But
I get it. It's a band,

632
00:42:15.559 --> 00:42:16.639
so it's cool. Did they put
him in there? But man, you

633
00:42:16.679 --> 00:42:20.800
just look and it's like, this
guy is Mount Everest compared a bunch of

634
00:42:20.800 --> 00:42:25.519
dorks on a hill. It's it's
unbelievable. And he you know, Michael

635
00:42:25.599 --> 00:42:30.800
Hutchins was a songwriter too. Yep. Between him and the keyboard player.

636
00:42:31.679 --> 00:42:36.559
The reason we're doing this list today
is because Tim Ferriss from In Excess is

637
00:42:36.599 --> 00:42:42.119
sixty six, So I don't know
there's ferriss Is everywhere. But the keyboard

638
00:42:42.119 --> 00:42:45.159
player, who's the dorkiest guy in
the band, he's the guy that writes

639
00:42:45.199 --> 00:42:50.079
the music. He's he's kind of
the musical genius. But he worked so

640
00:42:50.159 --> 00:42:54.639
well with Michael Hutchins. There's a
great movie that they made and I saw

641
00:42:54.639 --> 00:43:00.000
it on Showtime. It's a two
part thing where actors are playing in excess

642
00:43:00.519 --> 00:43:04.840
that could go bad if they don't
cast the right people. So it wasn't

643
00:43:04.920 --> 00:43:07.559
big enough to be on the big
screen. And I think it might have

644
00:43:07.679 --> 00:43:14.639
even been made in Australia, but
you know, it might be called Never

645
00:43:14.719 --> 00:43:19.400
Tear Us Apart or something like.
It's a song title and it's really good.

646
00:43:19.440 --> 00:43:23.440
The dude that they get to play, Michael Hutchins, is perfect,

647
00:43:24.360 --> 00:43:27.719
and you know that that's the one
that has to be cast, right,

648
00:43:28.000 --> 00:43:30.599
Oh yeah, because it's what's the
point, it's you get it wrong,

649
00:43:30.639 --> 00:43:34.440
it's due who's watching. It's really
good when you're I'll look it up in

650
00:43:34.440 --> 00:43:37.840
a minute, but I don't know
where you would see it. But I

651
00:43:37.960 --> 00:43:40.360
learned a ton about the band,
and apparently the band was on board with

652
00:43:40.400 --> 00:43:45.719
it and everything. It's cast really
well, it's done really really good.

653
00:43:45.000 --> 00:43:47.960
I'll find the name of it before
we're done. Who wants to go first?

654
00:43:47.960 --> 00:43:53.360
Here? You're the bigger fan,
Okay. I have a funny feeling

655
00:43:53.400 --> 00:43:59.559
you're gonna have better songs, and
I don't. They have a fucking million

656
00:43:59.559 --> 00:44:01.079
great song. Do you agree with
me on that that they have a million

657
00:44:01.119 --> 00:44:05.679
great songs? Yes? Because it
was weird because I was putting my five

658
00:44:05.800 --> 00:44:07.480
down, I'm like, whoa,
oh shit, I gotta I thought it'd

659
00:44:07.480 --> 00:44:10.679
be easy these five. Well then
I had like nine and I'm like,

660
00:44:10.679 --> 00:44:15.760
oh shit, this is this isn't
gonna be easy. There's five singles on

661
00:44:15.920 --> 00:44:21.519
Kick five singles that were all bangers. Yep. Yeah, yeah, it's

662
00:44:21.519 --> 00:44:23.400
a great shit. You know,
that's like, that's the all time thing.

663
00:44:23.519 --> 00:44:28.880
They were. They were you two. I mean they were as big

664
00:44:28.920 --> 00:44:30.920
as you two. I mean they
were as big as like you see,

665
00:44:30.039 --> 00:44:37.079
like a cold Play. They got
to that level eighty eight eighty nine that

666
00:44:37.239 --> 00:44:38.679
you know they could have been on
you know, they could have been on

667
00:44:38.679 --> 00:44:40.920
one of those rolling Stones. You
know, here's the biggest band in the

668
00:44:40.920 --> 00:44:44.679
world in excess. They were,
they were up there you know, the

669
00:44:44.719 --> 00:44:47.199
Police had their moment. You two's
had their moment for a long time,

670
00:44:47.559 --> 00:44:51.480
but in Excess had a moment where
they were kind of one of the biggest

671
00:44:51.480 --> 00:44:53.119
bands in the world. Yeah,
I think they. I think they were

672
00:44:53.199 --> 00:44:57.280
kind of running on a steam when
Nirvana hit too though. They're they're out

673
00:44:57.280 --> 00:45:00.079
their songs kind of like, oh
yeah, you know, but Nirvana hits

674
00:45:00.119 --> 00:45:04.039
and then okay, now that I
guess not just hair metal, but a

675
00:45:04.039 --> 00:45:06.519
lot of the new wave shit kind
of went quiet real quick too, you

676
00:45:06.519 --> 00:45:08.960
know, yeah, absolutely, don't
you go ahead and start this thing off?

677
00:45:09.159 --> 00:45:17.079
Okay and see what you got here. Five singles off of the Kick

678
00:45:17.119 --> 00:45:25.159
album. That album is a masterpiece. Never Tear Us Apart is my number

679
00:45:25.159 --> 00:45:34.239
five song. What It's an amazing
song, number five. Michael Hutchins vocals

680
00:45:34.280 --> 00:45:38.559
are phenomenal on it played at his
wedding, and I believe it's the I'm

681
00:45:38.559 --> 00:45:43.599
Sorry played at his funeral. I
think that's the only inex in Excess song

682
00:45:43.639 --> 00:45:49.159
played at his funeral. That's heavy, right, didn't know that? Yeah?

683
00:45:49.199 --> 00:45:52.199
Wow, Okay, that's a big
deal. When you pick one song

684
00:45:53.159 --> 00:45:57.960
that you're laying your buddy, your
brother, you're laying this guy to rest.

685
00:45:58.239 --> 00:46:01.559
That's the one that was played,
So I got that edit. Number

686
00:46:01.559 --> 00:46:06.840
five, it's just it's just an
unbelievable song. Number four is uh,

687
00:46:07.000 --> 00:46:10.039
suicide Blonde. Oh yes, I
never got into that one. I don't

688
00:46:10.039 --> 00:46:15.000
know why Suicide Blonde. That harmonica
yeah, very stones like, Yeah,

689
00:46:15.039 --> 00:46:23.599
that harmonica is so awesome. And
I remember the video and you know,

690
00:46:23.679 --> 00:46:28.760
if you didn't have that song,
you would never have the seven nation Army

691
00:46:28.840 --> 00:46:31.199
video if you know what any of
these videos looks through. Yeah, but

692
00:46:31.320 --> 00:46:37.280
it's it. I love the song. It's it's the follow up. It

693
00:46:37.360 --> 00:46:40.039
came out so Kick was so huge, and then they came out with Suicide

694
00:46:40.039 --> 00:46:44.039
Blonde, and I just thought,
oh fuck, okay, because a lot

695
00:46:44.079 --> 00:46:45.119
of times, you know, Bad
puts out a huge album, you know,

696
00:46:45.239 --> 00:46:50.360
Third Live, Line five singles,
right, Matchbox twenty four singles,

697
00:46:50.639 --> 00:46:52.119
and then you know, tell me, tell me what the second album did,

698
00:46:52.280 --> 00:46:55.280
or you know, the album after
that, they came out with Suicide

699
00:46:55.280 --> 00:46:59.840
Blonde, and they fucking punched it
in the mouth again. It was awesome.

700
00:47:00.159 --> 00:47:08.760
Yeah, number that's my number four. Number three is Mystify. Mystify

701
00:47:09.039 --> 00:47:14.519
was the fifth single that they released
off of the Kick album, right,

702
00:47:15.719 --> 00:47:21.920
and it's just they got the fingers
snapping and the piano and I don't know,

703
00:47:22.039 --> 00:47:27.119
it's just I love it. Number
three mystify. Number two is the

704
00:47:27.159 --> 00:47:30.920
title track from Kick is Kick,
And that's what got me to buy that

705
00:47:30.960 --> 00:47:35.840
album. Man. That song was
just sometimes you kick, sometimes you get

706
00:47:35.960 --> 00:47:39.880
kicked, and it was a fucking
rocker, and that's what kind of led

707
00:47:39.920 --> 00:47:44.599
me to believe that, Okay,
these guys could rock. It's a rock

708
00:47:44.679 --> 00:47:47.440
song. It is an absolute banger. Number two is Kick, and then

709
00:47:47.519 --> 00:47:52.880
number one is going all the way
back to nineteen eighty two. You want

710
00:47:52.880 --> 00:47:58.719
to watch a video and you'll see
that Michael Hutchins already has it. Don't

711
00:47:58.840 --> 00:48:02.519
change. Yeah, it was covered
by the Google Dolls. It was covered

712
00:48:02.559 --> 00:48:07.400
by a bunch of other bands,
but the Google Dolls definitely borrowed some stuff

713
00:48:07.440 --> 00:48:09.960
back in the day from in Excess, and they definitely borrowed from that song

714
00:48:10.000 --> 00:48:14.400
and they wound up doing a cover
of it. But yeah, in Excess

715
00:48:14.440 --> 00:48:20.239
going back to eighty two, Dude, they're all super skinny. The videos

716
00:48:20.360 --> 00:48:23.840
kind of hockey, but they're still
like in the outback, so they hadn't

717
00:48:23.880 --> 00:48:28.440
even you know, they hadn't seen
the world yet. But you could just

718
00:48:28.559 --> 00:48:32.679
tell that Michael Hutchins. Even though
the movements are very early eighties, it's

719
00:48:32.840 --> 00:48:37.199
very blended. Carlisle, go go. Everybody's got the same kind of move

720
00:48:39.639 --> 00:48:43.199
Yeah, he's got a jaggeresque kind
of style in that video. I was

721
00:48:43.199 --> 00:48:45.800
just watching it. Yeah, he's
got a bit of a Jagger eighties vibe

722
00:48:45.840 --> 00:48:49.199
going on it if you watch his
moves a little bit. But he already

723
00:48:49.239 --> 00:48:52.400
has it, like there's this weird
confidence from this young kid. They were

724
00:48:52.480 --> 00:48:53.840
kids in that. Oh god,
yeah, yeah, they were kids.

725
00:48:53.840 --> 00:48:58.920
They were teenagers Jesus and talented out
of the gate, you know. Yeah,

726
00:48:59.000 --> 00:49:00.360
and this is before he had a
long haired was a badass. You

727
00:49:00.360 --> 00:49:06.000
know. Wow, good list.
Don't Change. And I think even with

728
00:49:06.159 --> 00:49:09.440
all the hits that they had,
I believe even though I never saw him

729
00:49:09.480 --> 00:49:14.199
live, I think they used to
close with Don't Change, so they kind

730
00:49:14.199 --> 00:49:16.039
of knew, you know, this
is the one that kind of put us

731
00:49:16.079 --> 00:49:19.199
on the map, that at least, you know, opened up the doors

732
00:49:19.199 --> 00:49:22.679
for us. Obviously the Kick album
put them on the map. But when

733
00:49:22.679 --> 00:49:30.840
you when you hang on to something
old, it's it's it's Metallica, you

734
00:49:30.840 --> 00:49:34.320
know, ending with Seek and Destroy
right now, they're going all the way

735
00:49:34.320 --> 00:49:37.320
back to kill them all and you
kind of know, like that's your walkout

736
00:49:37.400 --> 00:49:39.159
music, right right, Well,
disappear it's a banger, you know,

737
00:49:39.239 --> 00:49:43.039
first of all, it's got tempo
and you know you don't want to walk

738
00:49:43.039 --> 00:49:45.800
out after never Tear Us Apart.
It's kind of a bummer, you know,

739
00:49:46.239 --> 00:49:49.880
all it would be great, but
like don't Change makes sense. Plus

740
00:49:49.880 --> 00:49:52.840
you're you're you're herketing back to like, hey, we were like twelve when

741
00:49:52.880 --> 00:49:54.440
we wrote this song. It was
awesome. You know, there's probably a

742
00:49:54.440 --> 00:49:59.039
lot of emotional ties to go into
it for the bad you know, yeah,

743
00:49:59.039 --> 00:50:01.599
like you're not going anywhere you need
to hear all of don't Change,

744
00:50:01.599 --> 00:50:06.800
you know. But I think that
when they played that, you knew it

745
00:50:06.840 --> 00:50:08.239
was over. Like Van Halen,
I hated that they would go out with

746
00:50:08.320 --> 00:50:12.559
Jump. I know, it's the
biggest song. It was the worst song

747
00:50:12.639 --> 00:50:15.000
to end on. I would fucking
open with Jump, just be like,

748
00:50:15.000 --> 00:50:16.440
fuck you here we go. At
that point, they had so many songs

749
00:50:16.480 --> 00:50:19.800
everybody knew. No one's there to
see Jump really at the end of the

750
00:50:19.840 --> 00:50:23.360
day, unless like somebody's wife who
doesn't know anything. Good list man,

751
00:50:24.360 --> 00:50:29.199
Wow, we have a couple of
similar tunes on here, but a different

752
00:50:29.239 --> 00:50:35.440
order. I will say number five
favorite in excess tunes. Number five,

753
00:50:36.039 --> 00:50:42.719
nineteen nineties X album Disappear, great
song, fucking great. And I may

754
00:50:42.760 --> 00:50:45.239
have this wrong because I listen to
a lot of in accessing. It's that

755
00:50:45.480 --> 00:50:49.440
do Do Do Do Do However he
do Do Do Do Do Do Do Do

756
00:50:49.039 --> 00:50:57.039
Do Do Do Just that is awesome, like you Get Away with So Disappear

757
00:50:57.039 --> 00:51:01.039
in nineteen ninety from X. Number
four from Kick eighty seven, Needs You

758
00:51:01.079 --> 00:51:07.000
Tonight. Oh yeah, I mean
those you can't go wrong. All of

759
00:51:07.000 --> 00:51:09.679
those songs are just you know,
fuck if you got a devil inside,

760
00:51:09.880 --> 00:51:13.960
I can't. They're all great.
They're all great, man. Everything off

761
00:51:13.960 --> 00:51:21.159
that album is amazing, so cool. Number five for three nineteen eighty five.

762
00:51:21.360 --> 00:51:24.280
Listen like Theeves. I don't know
why I like that song. I

763
00:51:24.320 --> 00:51:27.440
don't even know where it came from. It was on my playlist. I

764
00:51:27.519 --> 00:51:30.880
must have downloaded it at some point. I listened to that song all the

765
00:51:30.960 --> 00:51:32.360
damn time, even today. I
don't know why. I have no idea

766
00:51:32.440 --> 00:51:36.400
love it. Listen like these from
nineteen eighty five, going back pretty far.

767
00:51:37.519 --> 00:51:43.239
Number two, same song from Kick
eighty seven, never tear us apart

768
00:51:43.639 --> 00:51:47.840
head number two, just because it's
so fucking good, so good, that

769
00:51:47.840 --> 00:51:52.360
would be the song that you would
say, to quote an earlier moment in

770
00:51:52.400 --> 00:51:55.840
the podcast, follow the Ass,
Follow the Ass. That's the song,

771
00:51:57.800 --> 00:52:00.920
and like but great back in the
day, that had to be played at

772
00:52:00.960 --> 00:52:06.760
every wedding, right weddings, absolutely
every wedding. That had to be the

773
00:52:06.800 --> 00:52:09.400
fucking prom song that year, all
that shit. Eighty seven. Yeah,

774
00:52:09.400 --> 00:52:14.320
I can only imagine, you know. And then oddly enough, this is

775
00:52:14.360 --> 00:52:16.440
got a fucking Sack solo in it. This is this is wild. I

776
00:52:16.440 --> 00:52:21.480
don't think we've had the same number
one. God, it doesn't happen very

777
00:52:21.519 --> 00:52:28.840
often. Don't Change nineteen eighty two, Shaboo Shooba album eighty two. Don't

778
00:52:28.960 --> 00:52:30.440
Change. Now. What's interesting about
that, Rod, It's like I said,

779
00:52:30.480 --> 00:52:34.719
I came to this band much much
later. I didn't take the original

780
00:52:34.800 --> 00:52:39.920
wave. I learned about Don't Change
because of the Google Dolls cover and Buffalo.

781
00:52:39.920 --> 00:52:43.679
We played it up there for a
while and I was like, damn

782
00:52:43.679 --> 00:52:45.480
it, this is and I knew
it was a cover. I mean,

783
00:52:45.519 --> 00:52:47.079
I knew that they had covered it. I'm like, this is fucking great,

784
00:52:47.599 --> 00:52:50.440
and I'm like, and I love
the energy of it, and I

785
00:52:50.480 --> 00:52:52.719
went, well, let me go. I always want to go back and

786
00:52:52.760 --> 00:52:54.800
listen. If I don't know a
song that's a cover, I want to

787
00:52:54.840 --> 00:52:59.679
go back and hear what they did
from the original. How did they change

788
00:52:59.679 --> 00:53:01.440
it? And all of the google
dolls, what really did with it is

789
00:53:01.480 --> 00:53:06.039
speed it up a little bit and
get a little more rockish. But that

790
00:53:06.239 --> 00:53:08.960
is so great. That is such
a great, great freaking song. And

791
00:53:09.000 --> 00:53:12.480
they look like they're twelve in the
video. They come in that warehouse and

792
00:53:12.480 --> 00:53:15.119
they're dancing around like jag Offs and
they're right, but they're looking at them.

793
00:53:15.119 --> 00:53:19.079
You're like, you're all skinny,
skinny, skinny. But for eighty

794
00:53:19.159 --> 00:53:22.519
two that was in the pocket.
That's why I kind of got the utuo

795
00:53:22.639 --> 00:53:24.880
vibe off of them. You know, they had that early YouTube vibe looking

796
00:53:24.960 --> 00:53:29.079
and you could see where their similarities
kind of happening, and you're like,

797
00:53:29.119 --> 00:53:34.119
wow. And Michael Hutchins again looks
got a little bit of that Jagger esque

798
00:53:34.199 --> 00:53:37.000
moves. He's it's like it's like
he's doing them. Then he's like stopping

799
00:53:37.039 --> 00:53:40.159
himself from doing doing those Jagger moves
because he knows it's fucking Jagger. When

800
00:53:40.199 --> 00:53:45.039
you watch the video for Don't Change
It, you can feel it. You're

801
00:53:45.039 --> 00:53:46.039
like, oh, don't do that
one, because that's Jagger, you know

802
00:53:46.039 --> 00:53:49.440
what I mean. You could just
see him kind of sorting it all out,

803
00:53:49.519 --> 00:53:52.119
and then as he got older,
it's just like fucking rock star,

804
00:53:52.199 --> 00:53:59.880
absolute rock star. Yeah, the
Devil Inside. I think that was the

805
00:54:00.119 --> 00:54:02.559
song they play in this In the
one scene in the movie rock Star with

806
00:54:02.599 --> 00:54:07.280
Marky Mark after they do the first
show, they go to that party,

807
00:54:07.760 --> 00:54:13.079
he takes a pill. He takes
a pill, and then and then Jennifer

808
00:54:13.079 --> 00:54:16.400
Aniston, fuck it starts making out
with that check. It's so great.

809
00:54:16.440 --> 00:54:21.079
Oh my god, let drink that
in front. Gotta love that movie.

810
00:54:22.199 --> 00:54:25.679
The last song that they really had
a hit with was Beautiful Girl, and

811
00:54:25.840 --> 00:54:31.599
It's come to me so much to
me. Andrew Ferris wrote it for his

812
00:54:31.840 --> 00:54:37.039
daughter, right right, and uh, beautiful Girl is this great video and

813
00:54:37.119 --> 00:54:42.800
it's long before people started using the
and again it's so funny, like a

814
00:54:42.800 --> 00:54:45.000
lot of this in excess stuff.
We don't do this anymore with bands,

815
00:54:45.039 --> 00:54:51.119
at least I don't, but I
associate these songs with videos. The imagery

816
00:54:51.239 --> 00:54:54.079
was so important with you know,
a band like in excess because of everything.

817
00:54:54.159 --> 00:54:58.960
How we're just doating over Michael Hutchins. But they just they made cool

818
00:54:59.039 --> 00:55:05.280
videos too. But I just remember
the Beautiful Girl video and it really if

819
00:55:05.280 --> 00:55:07.199
you want to go back and look
at this nineteen ninety two, who else

820
00:55:07.280 --> 00:55:13.480
was doing this? It was total
like this body positivity with all these different

821
00:55:13.480 --> 00:55:17.519
girls in shapes and sizes and everything
in this video, which is so commonplace

822
00:55:17.599 --> 00:55:22.320
right now, But it wasn't happening
like that in ninety two, you know,

823
00:55:22.440 --> 00:55:24.880
And I mean even go to Suicide
Blonde. They're using the hot models

824
00:55:24.880 --> 00:55:29.000
boom boom boom, they're hitting you
in just hot chicks, the whole thing,

825
00:55:29.960 --> 00:55:31.760
but a little classier than hot for
teacher from Van Halen. They were

826
00:55:31.800 --> 00:55:37.039
just a little classier, but they
were still using they were still selling sex.

827
00:55:37.599 --> 00:55:39.599
That Beautiful Girl song man, I
think he'd be impressed with that video.

828
00:55:39.760 --> 00:55:43.480
They were ahead of their time on
that and he wrote it about his

829
00:55:43.559 --> 00:55:47.400
daughter. And it reminds me because
it's such a good song. It's almost

830
00:55:47.440 --> 00:55:52.119
an answer to and I do think
Andrew Ferris is that good a songwriter.

831
00:55:52.199 --> 00:55:58.239
He's the keyboard player. John Lennon
had that song beautiful Beautiful Boy that he

832
00:55:58.280 --> 00:56:04.480
wrote for his son, right,
and uh, Sean Lennon and uh,

833
00:56:04.519 --> 00:56:07.719
this is kind of like his version
of it. It's it's it's pretty fucking

834
00:56:07.719 --> 00:56:10.480
great. But that was kind of
the last time that they you know,

835
00:56:10.599 --> 00:56:15.679
Nirvana was already doing their thing when
when that song came out, and In

836
00:56:15.800 --> 00:56:19.920
Excess was already kind of it's weird
to think about it because Michael Hutchins died

837
00:56:19.960 --> 00:56:22.880
young, but he was you know, he was thirty seven when he died,

838
00:56:22.519 --> 00:56:28.159
and In Excess was old news.
Yeah, he was old news.

839
00:56:28.199 --> 00:56:31.320
The world was changing and it was
not taking in Access along with him.

840
00:56:31.480 --> 00:56:35.280
No, no, And when you
think about eighty two, we just talked

841
00:56:35.280 --> 00:56:37.880
about it, don't change nineteen eighty
two, nineteen ninety seven. You said,

842
00:56:38.320 --> 00:56:43.199
that's a hell of all run.
That's a long, long run.

843
00:56:43.320 --> 00:56:45.280
And at the end it was spiraling
out of control. I mean, they

844
00:56:45.280 --> 00:56:47.400
weren't on the radio Munch anymore.
And then obviously he had some issues,

845
00:56:49.000 --> 00:56:52.719
a lot of issues, you know, with drugs and stuff. You know,

846
00:56:52.840 --> 00:56:53.840
the way he went out was just
awful. You know, I remember

847
00:56:53.880 --> 00:56:59.119
hearing about it going he what what? Oh, Yeah, this is the

848
00:56:59.119 --> 00:57:05.039
first time I had ever heard of
auto erotic asphyxiation. Never I've never heard

849
00:57:05.039 --> 00:57:07.039
of it before, you know,
And it's like what I mean. I

850
00:57:07.039 --> 00:57:09.679
mean, if Jack and Offs are
saying enough, like you gotta bring yourself

851
00:57:09.719 --> 00:57:14.119
to the point where you're choking yourself
and passing out. You got a belt

852
00:57:14.119 --> 00:57:16.840
around your neck and you're hanging yourself
trying to trying to finish before you fucking

853
00:57:16.880 --> 00:57:21.639
die. That's how Bill died.
Yeah, David Charity, I don't know

854
00:57:21.639 --> 00:57:24.599
it was David David or Keith Charity, David Krty David. He did the

855
00:57:24.639 --> 00:57:29.280
same thing. I'm like, you
know, obviously you can't put yourself in

856
00:57:29.320 --> 00:57:32.719
someone else's shoes, but you're kind
of like, I get that if I

857
00:57:32.760 --> 00:57:35.840
did it, it would people go, yeah, that could see that.

858
00:57:37.679 --> 00:57:44.159
Michael Hudgins unbelievably great looking dude,
cool rock star, kind of thought he

859
00:57:44.199 --> 00:57:47.000
could maybe get a girl, a
chick. Maybe you know, that's not

860
00:57:47.079 --> 00:57:50.760
why you do it. You know, you know, you were all I

861
00:57:50.760 --> 00:57:53.400
go out that way. People would
just go yeah, yeah, I totally

862
00:57:53.440 --> 00:57:58.760
get it. I believe the movie
that I'm talking about is Never Tear Us

863
00:57:58.800 --> 00:58:04.400
Apart, the untold story of in
Excess, and again this is where they

864
00:58:04.480 --> 00:58:09.159
went out and got people so the
guy who played Michael Hutchins is Luke Arnold,

865
00:58:09.800 --> 00:58:15.719
and yeah, the Fairest Brothers,
and everybody that played the Fairest Brothers

866
00:58:16.000 --> 00:58:21.760
everybody looked unbelievable. You gotta get
somebody to play Bono because Bono plays a

867
00:58:21.800 --> 00:58:27.079
big role in Excessive story. And
then the guy that put together Live Aid,

868
00:58:27.440 --> 00:58:31.320
the guy from the Boomtown Rats Geldof, Bob Geldoff. He plays a

869
00:58:31.320 --> 00:58:37.039
big role in this because Michael Hutchins
starts banging his chick and then he has

870
00:58:37.039 --> 00:58:40.960
a baby with her and wants Bono
to be the godfather. He's like,

871
00:58:42.119 --> 00:58:45.000
I can't be the godfather this kid, fucking Bob Geldoff's my best friend.

872
00:58:46.320 --> 00:58:50.440
It's like, dude, you're putting
me in a weird spot here. Man,

873
00:58:51.039 --> 00:58:55.840
you I love you, but you're
banging my best friend's ex wife and

874
00:58:55.880 --> 00:59:00.840
now you're asking me to be the
godfather. This was all in this movie.

875
00:59:00.079 --> 00:59:02.840
It's I'm telling you, I don't
know where you can watch it.

876
00:59:05.559 --> 00:59:10.599
Trust me when I say the casting
on this it's just like you how much

877
00:59:10.679 --> 00:59:16.840
you loved Austin Butler. That is
it's Elvis, Elvis, Listen, this

878
00:59:16.920 --> 00:59:20.599
isn't a made for TV. This
isn't a made for the big screen thing,

879
00:59:21.239 --> 00:59:23.559
but if you like in Excess,
I promise you the guy that plays

880
00:59:23.559 --> 00:59:29.559
Michael Hutchins is nails. Really,
Yes, that's cool. I was just

881
00:59:29.599 --> 00:59:31.480
sit there thinking about how we always
talk about like what what band would deserves

882
00:59:31.480 --> 00:59:36.280
a big screen In Excess doesn't deserve
the big screen treatment. But I think

883
00:59:36.480 --> 00:59:38.880
I think if someone did, like
Moley Crude did like the Dirt and did

884
00:59:38.920 --> 00:59:43.639
it for like Netflix or whatever a
streamer, I think there's enough meat on

885
00:59:43.679 --> 00:59:45.360
the bone there with all the hits, all the songs and starting out at

886
00:59:45.360 --> 00:59:50.119
eighty two and all the backstories.
If you can get the band to sign

887
00:59:50.119 --> 00:59:52.280
off on the real stories, that'd
be something worth watching, you know.

888
00:59:52.320 --> 00:59:54.760
I mean, this sounds cool what
you're talking about. This is it.

889
00:59:54.840 --> 00:59:58.480
I think this is what's they because
I mean, this is what they had

890
00:59:58.519 --> 01:00:01.079
for the Australian audience. And then
it probably played everywhere in the world.

891
01:00:01.079 --> 01:00:04.559
But I mean it played on our
channels here. I saw it on Showtime

892
01:00:04.639 --> 01:00:07.800
or something, and it's two parts
and it might be you know, it

893
01:00:07.840 --> 01:00:10.719
might be you know, an hour
and a half, two episodes, you

894
01:00:10.719 --> 01:00:15.199
know, three maybe maybe maybe four
hours. But man, it's just it's

895
01:00:15.360 --> 01:00:21.679
it's compelling and you just you see
them as their somebody from the band.

896
01:00:22.719 --> 01:00:24.280
I don't know if it's Andrew Ferris, one of the Fairests. I don't

897
01:00:24.280 --> 01:00:30.159
know if the if they how closely
they monitored this, but it really talks

898
01:00:30.199 --> 01:00:34.519
about the creativity and how these songs
came together. And dude, I mean

899
01:00:34.920 --> 01:00:40.079
just like you're watching the you know, Bohemian Rhapsody, and it's like they're

900
01:00:40.119 --> 01:00:45.840
putting an ideas are coming and you
know, boom boom boom. Yeah,

901
01:00:45.199 --> 01:00:49.000
you know, like they in the
movie, they show like, hey,

902
01:00:49.039 --> 01:00:52.800
this this came to me, we
should try something like this. They're talking

903
01:00:52.800 --> 01:00:55.480
about these songs that became these huge
hits and these ideas that were flowing,

904
01:00:55.920 --> 01:01:00.239
you know, in Accessment had this
run where just like everything they tried was

905
01:01:00.239 --> 01:01:04.119
working, and the movie does a
really good job portraying that, telling you

906
01:01:04.159 --> 01:01:07.880
it's great. I will have to
check that one out because like I've already

907
01:01:07.880 --> 01:01:09.760
seen The Bear, I've finished it, so now I'm gonna find some other

908
01:01:09.760 --> 01:01:13.039
things to watch. And I don't
I don't want to dive into another series.

909
01:01:13.039 --> 01:01:15.760
It's there's just too much of a
commitment, you know. But this

910
01:01:15.880 --> 01:01:17.719
I could do. Plus it's music
and stuff, so that that's kind of

911
01:01:17.719 --> 01:01:21.039
cool. I'll have to check that
thing out, man, very cool.

912
01:01:21.079 --> 01:01:22.880
I don't know where the heck can
find it, though. Let me before

913
01:01:22.920 --> 01:01:27.159
we wrap this thing up here,
listen, I was just in New Orleans.

914
01:01:27.280 --> 01:01:29.880
It's awesome. I'm sure it's hot, but man, people were there

915
01:01:29.960 --> 01:01:32.639
party in red dress. I got
to see my friend Jason. If you

916
01:01:32.719 --> 01:01:38.559
head to New Orleans you can see
Jason. He does tours. It's Pirates

917
01:01:38.559 --> 01:01:42.559

Quarter dot Com is the website. It's

918
01:01:42.559 --> 01:01:45.719

it's different than every other tour that is

919
01:01:45.760 --> 01:01:52.880
available in the city. Real pirate
history, the stories of like how New

920
01:01:52.000 --> 01:01:57.199

928
01:02:25.199 --> 01:02:30.920
some new announcements coming soon with what's
going on with our pirate friends. Look,

929
01:02:30.920 --> 01:02:31.840
as much as the Pirates of the
Court would love you to buy a

930
01:02:31.920 --> 01:02:37.400

now this week and go over to the

931

Buzz dot com and get yourself your
Rod Ryan shows cares a T shirt.

932
01:02:42.199 --> 01:02:44.320
That's more important to me right now. All right, don't worry about that

933
01:02:44.360 --> 01:02:45.480
other the Pirate ship. But when
you come to Nworance, come see the

934
01:02:45.480 --> 01:02:49.079
Pirates man before we wrap up.
Rod. You know, we always talk

935
01:02:49.159 --> 01:02:52.639
about like albums and music and all
that. It's kind of our wheelhouse.

936
01:02:52.880 --> 01:02:55.800
So I just Google did a little
work today and I dug up the top

937
01:02:57.599 --> 01:03:04.599
selling rock albums of all time according
to the website Yard Barker dot com.

938
01:03:04.400 --> 01:03:07.039
I'm not sure how credible they are, but they said they did a lot

939
01:03:07.079 --> 01:03:10.239
of research and looked at the numbers, the record industry charts and graphs,

940
01:03:10.360 --> 01:03:13.280
so it's legit. I looked at
him like, oh, this makes sense.

941
01:03:13.480 --> 01:03:15.920
So I'm not gonna boy you with
all the details, but I just

942
01:03:15.960 --> 01:03:17.239
wanted to kind of go through this, so people got an idea. Like

943
01:03:17.320 --> 01:03:22.239
when we talk about like certain albums
were like, oh, Creed did this

944
01:03:22.400 --> 01:03:25.119
and Nickelback did that, people are
like, well, what's the context in

945
01:03:25.159 --> 01:03:28.639
that? Right? So if you
look at it, and I'll just go

946
01:03:28.800 --> 01:03:30.280
I picked the top ten. But
then I realized I had to throw at

947
01:03:30.360 --> 01:03:35.119
number eleven because it's really something that
we talk a lot about. This is

948
01:03:35.119 --> 01:03:42.920
the top selling rock albums of all
time. Okay, can you guess number

949
01:03:42.960 --> 01:03:46.039
one? You probably know it.
Eagles Greatest Hits. Congratulations you win the

950
01:03:46.079 --> 01:03:51.280
prize. Number eleven didn't. It
didn't sell. It didn't sell more than

951
01:03:51.599 --> 01:03:53.920
like say, Michael Jackson's Thriller.
But we're just talking rock albums now,

952
01:03:54.000 --> 01:03:57.920
right, So Michael Jackson wouldn't be
on here, or Garth Brooks wouldn't be

953
01:03:58.000 --> 01:04:00.920
on here. Garth wouldn't be on
there. Michael Jackson and for some reason

954
01:04:00.039 --> 01:04:03.000
fits on this list, and I
don't know why. I guess really any

955
01:04:03.400 --> 01:04:06.639
interesting, Well, I mean it's
weird. I mean whatever. Lordlines,

956
01:04:08.719 --> 01:04:12.400
number eleven, Appetite for Destruction,
Guns and Roses, eighteen million albums.

957
01:04:13.000 --> 01:04:16.440
I've bought in probably four over the
years. So You're Welcome Slash number number

958
01:04:16.480 --> 01:04:23.199
ten. Fleetwood Mac Rumors twenty million
albums. Pretty just played here. Stevie

959
01:04:23.280 --> 01:04:27.360
Nicks just played here. And it's
funny. You got a guy on my

960
01:04:27.400 --> 01:04:31.039
show, Alex who's you know,
thirty five, doesn't know anything about Fleetwood

961
01:04:31.079 --> 01:04:33.840
Mac nothing. Why would he?
You know what I mean, he shouldn't.

962
01:04:34.679 --> 01:04:40.119
But Daisy Jones and the Six and
then he deep dives, which he

963
01:04:40.199 --> 01:04:44.079
does because he's this obsessive guy,
and then boom, he goes to see

964
01:04:44.119 --> 01:04:46.760
Stevie Knicks and his mind is blown, you know, by something else.

965
01:04:46.920 --> 01:04:51.679
Daisy Jones and the Six, which
he's watched twice now start to finish,

966
01:04:51.840 --> 01:04:55.599
got him to go to go see
that, and you know he can tell

967
01:04:55.639 --> 01:04:59.280
you all about rumors and you know
how important it is. And it's funny

968
01:04:59.559 --> 01:05:02.360
how something got him. There's that
is actually kind of cool about that.

969
01:05:02.480 --> 01:05:10.000
Twenty million number nine. Hoody with
their album Cracked rear View Mirror twenty one

970
01:05:10.079 --> 01:05:15.599
million albums. Hooty out sells Rumors
which you know again, Pink Floyd the

971
01:05:15.599 --> 01:05:19.119
Wall twenty three million at number eight. Billie Joel's Greatest Hits twenty three million

972
01:05:19.159 --> 01:05:25.360
at number seven. The White Album
from the Beatles number six twenty four million

973
01:05:25.400 --> 01:05:30.400
copies. Zeppelin four twenty four million
copies. That's the one with rock and

974
01:05:30.480 --> 01:05:35.559
roll and staring with Heaven. Number
four ac DC Back in Black twenty five

975
01:05:35.760 --> 01:05:43.679
million albums sold. Number three Eagles
Hotel California twenty six million. Number two

976
01:05:43.960 --> 01:05:45.800
again, not sure why it falls
into the rock category, but I think

977
01:05:46.360 --> 01:05:50.800
I don't know who gives a shit
why Number two Michael Jackson Thriller thirty four

978
01:05:51.079 --> 01:05:58.320
million copies, and then Eagles Greatest
Hits number one, thirty eight million copies.

979
01:05:58.679 --> 01:06:05.320
I wonder if those numbers the recording
industry artists of America are I a

980
01:06:05.519 --> 01:06:10.480
a right? I wonder if those
are true album like sound scan numbers.

981
01:06:11.960 --> 01:06:16.280
And I wonder if they've taken and
weighted the download factor and all of that,

982
01:06:16.400 --> 01:06:23.239
because that probably is like that that
sounds to me like a true album

983
01:06:23.320 --> 01:06:27.960
sale number. What I mean by
weighted is I don't know. It's such

984
01:06:28.000 --> 01:06:32.920
a crazy thing to explain, but
if you download an album, I don't

985
01:06:32.920 --> 01:06:35.440
know that they give you credit for
selling an album. I think you have

986
01:06:35.519 --> 01:06:41.119
to download X amount of albums to
count as an album sale and singles,

987
01:06:41.519 --> 01:06:45.559
and if you download a certain number
of singles they'll give you. They've got

988
01:06:45.639 --> 01:06:49.559
some algorithm which we all have heard
that before. There there is a way

989
01:06:49.599 --> 01:06:56.400
to figure out what is the equivalent
of all this downloading and streaming. What

990
01:06:56.599 --> 01:07:00.880
is the equivalent they have. That's
why all the numbers are off when you

991
01:07:01.039 --> 01:07:05.320
when you look at all of this
stuff, Drake is gonna have the top

992
01:07:05.400 --> 01:07:12.039
everything. Drake is gonna Drake's gonna
outsell the Beatles because they're they're waiting and

993
01:07:12.039 --> 01:07:15.400
they're looking at all these streaming numbers
and everything. Now, it's really weird.

994
01:07:15.519 --> 01:07:17.679
You can kind of I mean,
you're the program director, you should

995
01:07:17.679 --> 01:07:20.440
know this ship. I don't.
I don't know. I couldn't even begin

996
01:07:20.519 --> 01:07:26.760
to explain it to somebody. But
they have come up with a mathematical formula

997
01:07:27.280 --> 01:07:30.400
that if you get x amount of
streams, well we're going to count that

998
01:07:30.519 --> 01:07:35.159
as buying the single. It's weird, Yeah, it's it's a weird formula.

999
01:07:35.519 --> 01:07:39.480
They gotta read, they gotta redo
everything. So if you want like

1000
01:07:39.559 --> 01:07:43.280
asterisks and all of that, there's
gonna have to be there's gonna have to

1001
01:07:43.320 --> 01:07:46.159
be pre this and pre that,
right right, Well, you think about

1002
01:07:46.199 --> 01:07:50.039
that situation, who's buying albums anymore. They're just there's not the album sounds

1003
01:07:50.079 --> 01:07:53.480
like they're used to because you don't
need to. People are smart now you

1004
01:07:53.480 --> 01:07:55.639
can buy the songs you like off
an album. You don't gonna sit through

1005
01:07:55.639 --> 01:07:59.400
the shitty songs. I mean,
back in the eighties and in nineties especially

1006
01:08:00.079 --> 01:08:03.840
four, we switched over to everything
is streams and buying singles as you had

1007
01:08:03.880 --> 01:08:09.039
to buy the album, so there
might be one or maybe, if you

1008
01:08:09.079 --> 01:08:12.400
were lucky, two good songs on
an album the rest of his ship a

1009
01:08:12.440 --> 01:08:15.000
lot of times, but you bought
the album, so that was an album

1010
01:08:15.079 --> 01:08:17.520
sale, and that's where a lot
of record that was made so much money.

1011
01:08:17.800 --> 01:08:19.600
And then when singles started coming out, you're like, oh, I

1012
01:08:19.600 --> 01:08:23.399
could just buy the single. Oh
that's cool. And that's why when we

1013
01:08:23.439 --> 01:08:29.760
went to just downloading and streaming,
record industry went, oh shit, yeah,

1014
01:08:30.239 --> 01:08:31.560
that's why we are where we are. To say now, personally,

1015
01:08:32.039 --> 01:08:35.880
I've gone back to vinyl in the
last few years, and I've bought albums

1016
01:08:35.920 --> 01:08:40.079
and I'm only gonna buy albums now
that they are either like something I have

1017
01:08:40.199 --> 01:08:43.960
no idea about it, through jazz
or whatever, or bands that I'm like,

1018
01:08:43.960 --> 01:08:46.039
oh, okay, this will be
worth buying this album because I know

1019
01:08:46.199 --> 01:08:48.640
it's going to be good. They're
not going to put a bunch of shitty

1020
01:08:48.640 --> 01:08:51.039
filler on there. You know.
I bought the new Food Foot Food Fighters

1021
01:08:51.079 --> 01:08:57.199
album. Great start to start to
finish, both sides awesome, you know,

1022
01:08:57.479 --> 01:09:00.600
but it's it's rare. I'm not
buying albums. You know. If

1023
01:09:00.640 --> 01:09:01.520
I if I hear a song,
I like it, all right, I'll

1024
01:09:01.560 --> 01:09:04.560
download it. You know, I'll
get the Chris Stapleton song you talked about.

1025
01:09:04.600 --> 01:09:09.079
I'll go get me some Hairy Styles
singles. Not buying a fucking Hairy

1026
01:09:09.079 --> 01:09:13.800
Styles album, just not doing it, although maybe I should. I don't

1027
01:09:13.800 --> 01:09:17.520
know, maybe I should. That
makes me a real fan. Final thoughts,

1028
01:09:17.600 --> 01:09:21.680
Jason, I don't buy albums.
I wear suits now, but I

1029
01:09:21.720 --> 01:09:27.560
don't wear I buy albums now.
I buy albums. That's what I do.

1030
01:09:27.600 --> 01:09:30.079
I buy albums now. This guy, this guy, I'm like,

1031
01:09:30.159 --> 01:09:32.000
dude, the Bear. You watch
the Bear. You watch the Bear.

1032
01:09:32.159 --> 01:09:35.560
The Bear's great, Bear's great,
Bear's great. I'm so glad you finished

1033
01:09:35.600 --> 01:09:40.600
it. The Christmas episode I said, I said, it's the Red Wedding.

1034
01:09:40.880 --> 01:09:45.279
Is that a pretty good way to
explain what that explosive episode is it's

1035
01:09:45.279 --> 01:09:53.880
just shocking. Emmy nominations everywhere.
Okay, Emmy's for everybody. There's so

1036
01:09:53.880 --> 01:09:56.159
many special guests in it. I
don't want to ruin it because it's still

1037
01:09:56.159 --> 01:09:58.239
pretty new. Yeah, you just
throw them out into the room and go

1038
01:09:58.279 --> 01:10:00.479
here. You just just grab yours. It's like throwing a Halloween candy on

1039
01:10:00.520 --> 01:10:03.039
the table. Just grab what you
want. It's good. Everybody grab one.

1040
01:10:03.079 --> 01:10:05.119
It's cool. You'll see you later, put your name on it later.

1041
01:10:05.479 --> 01:10:10.359
But Jamie Lee Curtis just won an
Academy Award. I promise you,

1042
01:10:10.560 --> 01:10:13.239
she wins an Emmy for this.
I promise you. Now keep him on

1043
01:10:13.319 --> 01:10:15.359
the Emmys. That just came out
in the nominations. That was for season

1044
01:10:15.439 --> 01:10:19.760
one of The Bear Correct everything that
came out so and it was nominated,

1045
01:10:20.039 --> 01:10:26.039
it pretty heavily nominated. And uh
and that's before most people even knew,

1046
01:10:26.079 --> 01:10:29.199
like what the hell this show was. So I had no idea. When

1047
01:10:29.239 --> 01:10:33.359
season two rolls around, forget about
it. It's gonna everybody's gonna be up

1048
01:10:33.399 --> 01:10:38.840
for everything. But I promise you
special guest at whatever, Jamie Lee Curtis.

1049
01:10:38.840 --> 01:10:41.479
I'm just gonna say that that's not
rooting anything. I don't think so.

1050
01:10:41.520 --> 01:10:44.359
And I think I said the same
thing when we were watching it.

1051
01:10:44.439 --> 01:10:45.760
I was like, I was like, Oh, there's your Emmy, you

1052
01:10:45.840 --> 01:10:49.359
know, right there. She just
kills it. She kills it. Although

1053
01:10:49.359 --> 01:10:53.479
there's plenty of people in that scene
there in that episode that you're like,

1054
01:10:53.520 --> 01:10:58.399
well everybody, everybody there, heavy
hit shit, heavy hitting. Yeah.

1055
01:10:58.479 --> 01:11:00.840
Yeah, you gotta watch the Bear. If you haven't one yet, do

1056
01:11:00.880 --> 01:11:03.000
the Hulu thing. Watch it.
It's not a lot of episodes. It's

1057
01:11:03.039 --> 01:11:08.239
pretty freaking great. I've learned a
lot through it. It's inspired me to

1058
01:11:08.239 --> 01:11:11.560
do better cooking now. I've actually
i've been doing a little more, a

1059
01:11:11.560 --> 01:11:14.439
little more cooking, Rod. I
don't know if that happened to you,

1060
01:11:14.439 --> 01:11:15.000
you know, if you started going, ah, you know what fun that

1061
01:11:15.079 --> 01:11:17.760
I'm gonna throw a little more,
a little more action than in my dinners

1062
01:11:17.800 --> 01:11:21.399
now I have. I've done that. I've maybe taking a little bit more

1063
01:11:21.399 --> 01:11:26.159
time plating my stuff up, I
mean, rather than just slapping it on

1064
01:11:26.199 --> 01:11:29.279
the plate. Those fudgation you know. You know when I had my kid

1065
01:11:29.399 --> 01:11:30.880
that mac and cheese, you know, I wiped the sides a little bit.

1066
01:11:33.399 --> 01:11:40.079
I'm I'm polishing her little you know, her little frog fork I'm polishing

1067
01:11:40.119 --> 01:11:41.760
it up and stuff. You know, I got a little I have a

1068
01:11:41.800 --> 01:11:46.359
little presentation now when I'm serving up
my kid, you know, toast points,

1069
01:11:46.840 --> 01:11:49.359
cut the crust off. I got
them on there a certain way.

1070
01:11:49.399 --> 01:11:54.560
Now. Yeah, yeah, I
honestly have. I really have, because

1071
01:11:54.560 --> 01:11:57.840
I I've done the same thing.
I actually was standing the other day and

1072
01:11:57.880 --> 01:12:00.319
I'm looking at a fork and I'm
I'm a napkin. I'm polishing the fork

1073
01:12:00.359 --> 01:12:02.840
as I'm like kind of standing and
waiting for something to finish in the microwave.

1074
01:12:02.880 --> 01:12:05.560
I'm like, you gotta watch it
and all of this stuff will make

1075
01:12:05.600 --> 01:12:10.359
sense. It's really good. It's
a well done, well done series.

1076
01:12:10.439 --> 01:12:14.000
Rot Any thoughts, final thoughts,
Yeah, completely shameless. Man, one

1077
01:12:14.000 --> 01:12:15.960
more time, one more plug.
This is it. This is my last

1078
01:12:15.000 --> 01:12:17.119
time telling you, please, man, go in the rod Ryan show Cares

1079

telling you go into the store until I

1080
01:12:21.720 --> 01:12:24.760
tell you to go in the store
again and go buy for something else.

We're gonna be you know. Prostate Cancer

Awareness Month is in two weeks,
so I'm looking to get like my store

fire up a whole new line of stuff

1084
01:12:40.880 --> 01:12:45.800

for breast cancer research. I got a

1085
01:12:45.840 --> 01:12:47.439
golf tournament, I got all this
stuff coming up. I mean, this

1086
01:12:47.520 --> 01:12:53.159
is the season that it's just there's
no rest at all. But so yeah,

1087
01:12:53.199 --> 01:12:55.640
this is it. Saturday, we
pass out the backpacks. I'm gonna

1088
01:12:55.720 --> 01:12:59.520
keep the store open all weekend long. So we're recording Wednesday night. This

1089
01:12:59.560 --> 01:13:02.560
goes up on Thursday, so Friday
pay day, it's not too late.

1090
01:13:02.560 --> 01:13:05.000
You're like, well, Rod's passing
out backpacks tomorrow. He doesn't need my

1091
01:13:05.039 --> 01:13:10.560
money. Fuck I don't I need
your money. And I'll let you go

1092
01:13:10.640 --> 01:13:15.560
shop all weekend long. The Rod
Ryan showcares online store. Just google it.

1093
01:13:15.640 --> 01:13:19.159
You'll get there. You'll get there. Language language, Come on,

1094
01:13:19.239 --> 01:13:23.039
man, you're passing off backpacks the
little kids. You gonna talk like that

1095
01:13:23.079 --> 01:13:26.800
out there? And what's up,
cousin, No, I will not.

1096
01:13:27.479 --> 01:13:30.000
It's awesome. It's gonna be hot, but it's gonna be great. It's

1097
01:13:30.000 --> 01:13:33.479
awesome. Well, congratulations on all
your work on this, and it's a

1098
01:13:33.520 --> 01:13:36.359
big deal. I don't think people
realize, you know, you don't.

1099
01:13:38.119 --> 01:13:41.039
We're all just victims of going Oh
that looks cool. That's cool. Good

1100
01:13:41.039 --> 01:13:44.479
for them. Nobody realizes the work
that goes into these things, you know

1101
01:13:44.520 --> 01:13:46.199
what I mean, Like anything like
that, any of these charities, any

1102
01:13:46.199 --> 01:13:50.359
of the races you see, anything
that anyone does. There's a shit ton

1103
01:13:50.439 --> 01:13:53.479
of work that goes into behind this
these but we all just kind of go,

1104
01:13:53.520 --> 01:13:56.359
oh, that's cool. You know
that's cool. But that guess works.

1105
01:13:56.760 --> 01:13:59.800
And I've used this one in podcasts
before. You know, people have

1106
01:14:00.039 --> 01:14:01.800
asked me, hey, man,
you know I bought a T shirt?

1107
01:14:01.840 --> 01:14:05.000
Can I come and pass out backpacks? That sounds like pretty fun, man,

1108
01:14:05.000 --> 01:14:10.680
it sounds pretty rewarding. It's really
rewarding. It really is. We

1109
01:14:10.760 --> 01:14:15.720
just have so many people out there
that your heart's in the right place and

1110
01:14:15.800 --> 01:14:18.000
thank you for helping. But this
is my reminder, and this is anybody

1111
01:14:18.039 --> 01:14:21.359
that's listening in New Orleans and Jason, you've worked with different charities. Man,

1112
01:14:21.600 --> 01:14:27.039
What doesn't cost you anything but just
your time is volunteering at these places.

1113
01:14:27.079 --> 01:14:30.880
So I work with Houston Children's Charity, there's the Houston Food Bank.

1114
01:14:31.239 --> 01:14:34.720
I know you have first harvesters over
there. They need people, they need

1115
01:14:34.720 --> 01:14:39.239
boots on the ground. So you
know, you hear me and I'm always

1116
01:14:39.239 --> 01:14:42.760
asking for money. At least I'm
trying to sell you a T shirt or

1117
01:14:42.800 --> 01:14:45.920
buy a you know, a fucking
couzi or something to get something from your

1118
01:14:45.960 --> 01:14:53.439
doage. I know, but because
so many people ask me because they know

1119
01:14:53.520 --> 01:14:56.159
we're going to be there and they
know we're passing out backpacks. And it's

1120
01:14:56.199 --> 01:14:58.800
one of my favorite days of the
entire year. It really is. I

1121
01:14:58.840 --> 01:15:01.920
mean it may it's not. That's
not lip service either, man. That

1122
01:15:02.000 --> 01:15:04.880
it makes all that hard work kind
of worth it. You're passing off these

1123
01:15:04.920 --> 01:15:11.439
backpacks, and it really is.
It's very rewarding. But the Houston Furniture

1124
01:15:11.479 --> 01:15:15.600
Bank and the food banks and all
these they need help, man. They

1125
01:15:15.640 --> 01:15:17.800
need help, man, and they
could use you on a Saturday. And

1126
01:15:17.840 --> 01:15:23.000
I tell people that want to pass
out backpacks, well, Houston Children's Charity

1127
01:15:23.159 --> 01:15:27.520
they do a mattress program, they
do a store at Christmas time. They

1128
01:15:28.159 --> 01:15:31.039
need your help. So if you're
hot right now because you want to pass

1129
01:15:31.079 --> 01:15:34.760
out a backpack, keep the heat
going, man, call someplace. Hey,

1130
01:15:34.960 --> 01:15:39.399
can I volunteer? Can I volunteer? Everyone's got a website and everyone

1131
01:15:39.439 --> 01:15:43.039
has a place click here if you
want to help. You know, it's

1132
01:15:43.079 --> 01:15:45.039
not of course, everybody wants your
money, but man, they need your

1133
01:15:45.039 --> 01:15:47.600
time. They need you to go
down there on a Saturday and spend a

1134
01:15:47.600 --> 01:15:51.079
couple of hours, maybe sorting through
clothes and stuff. You know, that's

1135
01:15:51.159 --> 01:15:56.800
everybody. Would it be fair to
say that they maybe need hands? Rod

1136
01:15:57.840 --> 01:16:03.560
hands, I need hands. This
guy's obsessed with the bear. Oh my

1137
01:16:03.680 --> 01:16:05.359
god. Every time, like,
I'll hear it in the garage. My

1138
01:16:05.359 --> 01:16:10.239
wife will come back. I need
hands. I'll come running. There you

1139
01:16:10.279 --> 01:16:15.680
go. I'm I'm in New Orleans
a red dress run. Jason's on his

1140
01:16:15.720 --> 01:16:19.199
way down. I'm at this bar
that he used to go to that I

1141
01:16:19.239 --> 01:16:21.239
still go to boondocks saying, I'm
like, all right, let me know

1142
01:16:21.239 --> 01:16:25.439
when you get close and I'll meet
you. And this girl's sitting next to

1143
01:16:25.479 --> 01:16:30.479
me and she just happens to say
she's from Chicago. I'm like, did

1144
01:16:30.479 --> 01:16:32.079
you watch the Bear? She goes
fucking right, I watched the Bear.

1145
01:16:32.119 --> 01:16:38.760
It's awesome. The show takes place
in Chicago. I'm like, did you

1146
01:16:38.760 --> 01:16:42.640
watch the Bear? You're from Chicago. I didn't ask her if she watched

1147
01:16:42.720 --> 01:16:47.399
Chicago Er or Chicago Hope or Blue
Bloods or whatever. There's all those Chicago

1148
01:16:47.520 --> 01:16:49.600
shows. You think I asked her
about anything. I go, did you

1149
01:16:49.600 --> 01:16:54.439
watch The Bear on Hulu? She's
like, yes, of course, that's
