1
00:00:42,200 --> 00:00:44,960
Hello, everybody, Welcome, here
we go. It's that time again.

2
00:00:45,039 --> 00:00:52,240
Matt Connerton Unleashed and we are live
from the studios of w m n hinem

3
00:00:52,399 --> 00:00:56,240
and glorious downtown Manchester, New Hampshire. And it is a glorious day.

4
00:00:56,240 --> 00:01:00,640
It's windy, uh and a little
chilly. I was actually surprised when I

5
00:01:00,679 --> 00:01:03,920
went out this morning. It was
fifty degrees and you know, that's it's

6
00:01:03,959 --> 00:01:07,920
May. It's not like it's summertime. But yeah, somehow you just you

7
00:01:07,959 --> 00:01:10,439
get used to being warmer and warmer, and then all of a sudden it's

8
00:01:10,439 --> 00:01:12,840
cold and you go a burr.
I had to put on my coat.

9
00:01:14,599 --> 00:01:18,680
That's all right now. It is
a beautiful day out here in downtown Manchester.

10
00:01:18,840 --> 00:01:23,400
Of course, uh as I overlook
the city while not really we're only

11
00:01:23,400 --> 00:01:26,680
on the third floor, but as
I overlook up this part of Elm Street.

12
00:01:26,680 --> 00:01:30,200
Here from the studios of WMNH also
on Comcast ninety seven. If you're

13
00:01:30,200 --> 00:01:34,879
in Manchester and hello to Oliver our
online listeners across the nation and around the

14
00:01:34,879 --> 00:01:38,159
globe. You can go to my
website Matt Connerson dot com for all of

15
00:01:38,159 --> 00:01:42,120
your live streaming options, social media
links, show archives, etc. Etc.

16
00:01:44,200 --> 00:01:47,920
Today, By the way, we
have a great show for you.

17
00:01:48,239 --> 00:01:52,879
That track that I opened with that
is called Ghosts of Yesterday from a German

18
00:01:52,920 --> 00:01:56,359
band called Hell's Throne, and they're
actually going to be skyping in on the

19
00:01:56,400 --> 00:02:00,400
show. Uh not today, not
today. I'm giving you a little sneak

20
00:02:00,439 --> 00:02:02,920
preview, but that's coming up,
I think in June, early June.

21
00:02:04,439 --> 00:02:07,079
We have a great band coming up
today in the second hour, we're gonna

22
00:02:07,079 --> 00:02:10,680
be joined in studio by Horsefly Gulch
and these are you know, it's three

23
00:02:10,759 --> 00:02:15,039
guys who have been in the music
scene for a long time in various projects,

24
00:02:15,039 --> 00:02:17,560
but I haven't seen any of them
in forever, so this will be

25
00:02:17,599 --> 00:02:21,719
really cool. I love their sound
and we'll play some of their music for

26
00:02:21,759 --> 00:02:24,439
you later. And I think they
might play live in studio for us as

27
00:02:24,479 --> 00:02:27,919
well. So that'll be coming up
today in the second hour. I'm not

28
00:02:28,159 --> 00:02:30,919
sure about that. I forget now, I forget what Jenny told me,

29
00:02:30,919 --> 00:02:34,159
So that will be in the second
hour. Now. In the first hour,

30
00:02:34,400 --> 00:02:37,000
now, we have a new segment, my Friends, that we do

31
00:02:37,360 --> 00:02:39,960
with our friend Eric Pilcher. Eric, of course has been part of the

32
00:02:39,960 --> 00:02:43,360
show for a while now. A
couple of years or a year and a

33
00:02:43,400 --> 00:02:45,879
half, whatever it's been. I
don't know time. It just all gets

34
00:02:45,919 --> 00:02:50,840
away from me doing his classic film
review every Friday on the show, and

35
00:02:51,199 --> 00:02:54,719
you know, occasionally he'll call into
and we'll talk about other things. But

36
00:02:55,120 --> 00:02:58,840
this week we're starting a new segment
with him where we look at the media.

37
00:02:58,919 --> 00:03:01,599
I love talking about media stuff with
Eric. Whether it's a big media,

38
00:03:01,680 --> 00:03:07,199
you know, the corporate media,
or independent media slash online media.

39
00:03:07,479 --> 00:03:10,960
There's always very interesting things. I've
always liked shows about that kind of thing,

40
00:03:12,479 --> 00:03:16,120
Like NPR has a show called On
the Media where they analyze media coverage

41
00:03:16,120 --> 00:03:20,479
of events and news that I really
like. Um, I don't know if

42
00:03:20,479 --> 00:03:24,879
it's still on. There used to
be a show called Reliable Sources that Howard

43
00:03:24,960 --> 00:03:28,639
Kurtz used to host. I don't
know if that still exists, but again

44
00:03:28,680 --> 00:03:31,560
it analyzes, you know, the
media. So I really enjoy having those

45
00:03:31,599 --> 00:03:35,360
conversations with Eric, and we haven't
done that in a while, but we

46
00:03:35,439 --> 00:03:38,520
both enjoyed so much we decided to
make it a regular thing. However,

47
00:03:38,000 --> 00:03:44,840
he will not be joining us until
four to thirty. And it's not his

48
00:03:44,919 --> 00:03:53,000
fault. It's not his fault.
Someone someone took him from me for the

49
00:03:53,000 --> 00:03:55,560
first thirty minutes of the hour from
four to four thirty. Oh. Yes,

50
00:03:55,759 --> 00:04:00,520
I've been scorned, my friends,
I've been spurned, I've been other

51
00:04:00,800 --> 00:04:04,039
things that start with us. I
suppose. Yes, it's a very it's

52
00:04:04,039 --> 00:04:06,680
a hard day in that regard,
very very hurtful. But well, we'll

53
00:04:06,680 --> 00:04:13,360
get into that later. But also
before I give the numbers, of course,

54
00:04:13,400 --> 00:04:15,000
the studio line and so forth,
I want to play for you.

55
00:04:15,360 --> 00:04:18,800
I have some audio for you from
you know, Jenny. She went down

56
00:04:18,839 --> 00:04:27,279
to Washington, D C. To
testify at a Medicare for All Hearing and

57
00:04:33,240 --> 00:04:38,720
sorry, Oh, I know what
that is. It's coming from those construction

58
00:04:38,800 --> 00:04:42,560
vehicles. I could. I could
smell something. There's road construction going on

59
00:04:42,680 --> 00:04:45,519
out here on Elm Street. And
I'm like, what is that? What

60
00:04:45,560 --> 00:04:50,800
am I smelling? That's what it
is? Um it's it's actually making it

61
00:04:50,839 --> 00:04:56,399
into the building. Um So.
Jenny went down to Washington, D C.

62
00:04:57,519 --> 00:05:01,319
To testify at the Medicare for All
Hearing and uh and not only um

63
00:05:01,360 --> 00:05:03,639
so, she she gave up and
gave her presence. She got up and

64
00:05:03,639 --> 00:05:08,560
gave her a presentation and uh.
And then she also asked she was she

65
00:05:08,720 --> 00:05:12,399
was asked her. She responded to
a panel question. You know, she

66
00:05:12,439 --> 00:05:15,720
sat on the panel afterward as um
one of the activists. And UM,

67
00:05:17,079 --> 00:05:20,480
I want to play for you the
audio of that of those two parts now.

68
00:05:20,560 --> 00:05:23,000
And by the way, if you
want to see the whole thing,

69
00:05:23,000 --> 00:05:24,959
it is up. You know,
we put it up on YouTube and everything.

70
00:05:25,000 --> 00:05:29,680
But um, it's about ninety minutes
the full uh event. But UM,

71
00:05:29,720 --> 00:05:31,800
I'm gonna play for you the two
clips of Jenny. The first one

72
00:05:32,120 --> 00:05:39,000
is her at the podium speaking,
and then the second one is of her

73
00:05:39,480 --> 00:05:43,839
at the table during the panel discussion
during the Q and A session. UM,

74
00:05:43,879 --> 00:05:48,000
so here's here's uh Senator Bernie Sanders
of Vermont introducing Jenny, and then

75
00:05:48,079 --> 00:05:56,959
Jenny going and speaking. Our next
speaker is Jennifer Coffee was from Manchester,

76
00:05:57,040 --> 00:06:02,879
New Hampshire. She's a member of
Rights and Democracy, the People's Action affiliate

77
00:06:02,920 --> 00:06:09,959
that covers Vermont and New Hampshire.
Jennifer is a breast cancer survival. Diagnosed

78
00:06:10,120 --> 00:06:15,360
with complex regional pain syndrome. Jennifer
spent years struggling to make sure her doctor's

79
00:06:15,480 --> 00:06:21,040
visits and medicine would be covered by
her insural. She is also a former

80
00:06:21,120 --> 00:06:28,879
Republican state representative who, through personal
experience, now understands the need to move

81
00:06:28,879 --> 00:06:43,920
toward a Medicare role system. Jennifer
Good Evening. My name is jenn and

82
00:06:43,920 --> 00:06:46,240
I'm from Manchester, New Hampshire,
and at one time I was a fully

83
00:06:46,240 --> 00:06:51,079
functioning EMT and I joked that I
lifted people for a living. Then breast

84
00:06:51,079 --> 00:06:56,560
cancer surgery went wrong. I ended
up bed bound for two years and I

85
00:06:56,639 --> 00:07:00,319
lost everything. I felt like I
was going to be trapped for ever in

86
00:07:00,360 --> 00:07:04,680
my bedroom. I developed complex regional
pain syndrome, the most painful disease known

87
00:07:04,680 --> 00:07:11,920
to medicine, and small fiber neuropathy. Rules imposed by my private health insurance

88
00:07:11,920 --> 00:07:20,879
company, United Healthcare Medicaid disadvantage consistently
overrides my care team's medical expertise. I've

89
00:07:20,959 --> 00:07:27,560
yet to figure out how my private
health insurance can actually help me rule oh

90
00:07:27,680 --> 00:07:31,680
sorry. Because my private health insurer
refuses to cover my care, I was

91
00:07:31,720 --> 00:07:35,120
forced to make a go fund me
and sell my possessions to afford treatments.

92
00:07:36,160 --> 00:07:42,279
With the help of People's Actions Care
over Cost campaign, I was recently able

93
00:07:42,319 --> 00:07:49,879
to get approval from my next infusion. I worry, though. I worry

94
00:07:49,879 --> 00:07:54,600
though that when no one is looking. United Healthcare will not approve any more

95
00:07:54,639 --> 00:08:00,240
treatments. Things got bad really fast
last year. My illness was progressive and

96
00:08:00,319 --> 00:08:03,399
I was forced to ration infusions because
my rent was hiked up four hundred dollars.

97
00:08:05,560 --> 00:08:11,319
My neurologists started me on LDN low
dose naltrexone, but the pharmaceutical company

98
00:08:11,360 --> 00:08:13,959
that makes the medication will not make
it in the low dose that I need

99
00:08:15,319 --> 00:08:18,600
because it's not profitable for them to
do so I've had to use a compounding

100
00:08:18,600 --> 00:08:22,319
pharmacy to get the medication, and
I've had to use five different pharmacies in

101
00:08:22,399 --> 00:08:28,360
order to keep costs down. Again, my Medicare disadvantage plan through United Healthcare

102
00:08:28,360 --> 00:08:33,600
will not cover it. Insurance companies
serve no purpose in medicine. They decrease

103
00:08:33,759 --> 00:08:46,240
positive outcomes. America has arguably the
best medical care in the world, but

104
00:08:46,360 --> 00:08:50,399
only if you can buy it.
This is not a Democrat or Republican issue.

105
00:08:50,440 --> 00:08:56,080
This is a human issue. It's
disgusting to watch United Healthcare brag about

106
00:08:56,080 --> 00:09:00,759
over eight billion dollars a profit earned
in just three months, and they deem

107
00:09:00,840 --> 00:09:07,600
me too expensive to keep alive.
I'm excited about this work. Anyone who

108
00:09:07,639 --> 00:09:09,600
needs care will get it. No
matter who they are, no matter where

109
00:09:09,639 --> 00:09:13,679
they're from. Right now, there
are millions of people across this country who

110
00:09:13,720 --> 00:09:24,639
are organizing and we want Medicare for
all now, all right, So there

111
00:09:24,639 --> 00:09:28,240
you go. So that was Jenny's
presentation at the podium, and then I'll

112
00:09:28,240 --> 00:09:33,879
also share with you this is during
the panel discussion. My last question before

113
00:09:33,919 --> 00:09:39,639
we open it up is what do
you think it would mean for the health

114
00:09:39,639 --> 00:09:46,679
and low rood decreased anxiety in this
country if anybody could walk into a doctor

115
00:09:46,759 --> 00:09:52,600
or nurse's office whenever they felt they
needed to without having to worry about how

116
00:09:52,639 --> 00:09:56,039
they're going to pay for it.
What would it mean to the health and

117
00:09:56,080 --> 00:09:58,679
well being of our country? Who
wants to say a word on that?

118
00:09:58,720 --> 00:10:05,200
One man? Yeah, in my
opinion, that would give me true medical

119
00:10:05,240 --> 00:10:11,600
freedom where I am making the decisions
with my providers and my family and whatever

120
00:10:11,759 --> 00:10:18,720
is needed is done, and not
some bureaucrat, insurance person or computer denying

121
00:10:18,919 --> 00:10:24,039
care. The decisions about care needs
to be between the physician and the patient

122
00:10:24,080 --> 00:10:26,840
and their family, and that's it. Medicare for All is the only way

123
00:10:26,879 --> 00:10:33,519
to do it, all right,
There you go. So I wanted to

124
00:10:33,519 --> 00:10:37,919
share those with you very proud of
her obviously, and I know a lot

125
00:10:37,960 --> 00:10:41,159
of the audiences as well, and
I'm not sure. I don't think we

126
00:10:41,799 --> 00:10:46,120
aside from Easyg's entertainment report, I
don't think we have any guests book for

127
00:10:46,159 --> 00:10:50,879
tomorrow. So who knows. We
might see Jenny in here with me tomorrow

128
00:10:50,919 --> 00:10:52,440
to talk about this, talk about
her trip to Washington, d C.

129
00:10:52,559 --> 00:10:56,519
And so forth. Then again,
she may want to take tomorrow off to

130
00:10:56,159 --> 00:11:00,399
recuperate because you know, this has
been a big deal. It's it's not

131
00:11:01,000 --> 00:11:03,879
easy for her to travel at times, and um, but there you go.

132
00:11:03,919 --> 00:11:07,240
I wanted to share that with all
of you. So and if you

133
00:11:07,240 --> 00:11:09,559
do want to see the whole event, it is up. Of course,

134
00:11:09,840 --> 00:11:13,879
I put it up on YouTube and
it's uh. If you on Facebook,

135
00:11:13,919 --> 00:11:18,960
you can go to the Senator Bernie
Sanders Facebook page and you can check out

136
00:11:20,000 --> 00:11:24,960
the whole thing. But there you
go. So I wanted to mention that,

137
00:11:24,559 --> 00:11:28,279
and I do look forward to when
she's um, when she's on the

138
00:11:28,279 --> 00:11:30,240
show with us, and you know, she can tell us all about it

139
00:11:30,240 --> 00:11:31,759
in detail. And I'll be seeing
her later this evening. Of course,

140
00:11:33,519 --> 00:11:35,960
she's going to be arriving in town. I think her her son is actually

141
00:11:35,960 --> 00:11:39,159
picking her up and taking her out
for Mother's Day because they weren't able to

142
00:11:39,399 --> 00:11:43,039
do something on Sunday. So there
you go. Six zo three two five

143
00:11:43,200 --> 00:11:48,159

00:11:48,159 --> 00:11:50,480
can also text me at six one

00:11:50,559 --> 00:11:56,879
I'm on social media at Matt Connerton. You can email me Matt at

146
00:11:56,919 --> 00:12:01,159
Matt Connerton dot com, and of
course you can interact endope fine in the

147
00:12:01,240 --> 00:12:03,360
Facebook live chat. But the best
thing to do so that we can hear

148
00:12:03,399 --> 00:12:07,879
and enjoy your dulcet tones is to
give us a call at six O three

Yes, if you're just joining us.

By the way, our friend Eric
Pilcher is not here yet. He will

151
00:12:15,759 --> 00:12:18,879
be delayed. He will be joining
us at four thirty and then of course

152
00:12:18,919 --> 00:12:22,200
in the second hour we have a
great band coming in of course, Fly

153
00:12:22,360 --> 00:12:26,360
Gulch. But yes, Eric Pilcher
will be joining us late. He was

154
00:12:28,279 --> 00:12:31,799
I don't want to say kidnapped,
which would be impossible anyway, because you

155
00:12:31,799 --> 00:12:35,240
know he's in Cedar Rapids, Iowa. Not that there aren't kidnappings there necessarily,

156
00:12:35,240 --> 00:12:39,200
but not in this instance. No, no, No, he was.

157
00:12:39,720 --> 00:12:43,519
There's a certain other individual who does
a television show on Wednesdays who apparently

158
00:12:43,960 --> 00:12:50,159
just desperately needed to have Eric on
his show today. And I have to

159
00:12:50,200 --> 00:12:52,120
tell you, I'm I'm a little
bitter about it. I really am.

160
00:12:52,639 --> 00:12:56,320
You know, of course, I'm
referring to John Hopwood, who just uh,

161
00:12:56,960 --> 00:13:01,279
you know, this kind of interference
in my program is is not acceptable.

162
00:13:01,600 --> 00:13:05,000
I feel a bit betrayed. Again, it's not Eric's fault. He

163
00:13:05,080 --> 00:13:09,720
was, you know, as I
as I mentioned on social media, he

164
00:13:09,840 --> 00:13:13,879
was seduced, if you will,
by the by the silver tongue of a

165
00:13:13,960 --> 00:13:16,840
devil. Not the devil, but
a devil, a silver tongue to a

166
00:13:16,919 --> 00:13:20,320
devil. I think that's where the
phrase comes from. It's the devil but

167
00:13:20,440 --> 00:13:24,799
with a silver tongue. Anyway,
Yes, in fact, I am so

168
00:13:24,919 --> 00:13:28,559
upset about this, my friends,
and I'm very I'm very deeply hurt.

169
00:13:28,960 --> 00:13:31,440
I'm not a big crier, so
we don't have to worry about that,

170
00:13:31,960 --> 00:13:35,120
but I am very deeply hurt.
And as a matter of fact, you

171
00:13:35,120 --> 00:13:37,360
know what, I don't think I'm
even going to uh going forward. I

172
00:13:37,600 --> 00:13:41,639
don't think I'm even going to refer
to John Hopwood by his correct name.

173
00:13:41,399 --> 00:13:43,240
No, I think I'm gonna call
him something else, you know, don't

174
00:13:43,240 --> 00:13:46,159
think I'm gonna do. I think
I'm gonna rearrange the letters a little bit.

175
00:13:46,240 --> 00:13:50,120
I think going forward from this day
on, I will refer to him

176
00:13:50,240 --> 00:13:54,720
as Han job Would. What do
you think of that? How do you

177
00:13:54,720 --> 00:13:58,360
like that Han job would? Uh? Stealing my Hey? Listen, by

178
00:13:58,360 --> 00:14:00,840
the way, Eric Pilcher, I
mean, you know, he happens to

179
00:14:00,840 --> 00:14:03,840
be my favorite conservative, as I
often say on the show, what is

180
00:14:03,879 --> 00:14:07,120
he to you? On job Wood? Oh yeah, oh yeah, I'm

181
00:14:07,120 --> 00:14:09,919
gonna call him that from now on. I'm not afraid to rearrange the letters

182
00:14:09,919 --> 00:14:13,559
in somebody's name. I am ruthless. If you cross me, I am

183
00:14:13,639 --> 00:14:18,120
ruthless. Come to think of it, I don't think I've ever met anyone

184
00:14:18,159 --> 00:14:24,080
named ruth so that might literally be
true anyway. So I guess I guess

185
00:14:24,200 --> 00:14:28,759
Eric Pilcher will be joining us at
four thirty. That will be nice.

186
00:14:28,320 --> 00:14:31,840
I would have liked to have had
him for more of the hour, but

187
00:14:33,440 --> 00:14:37,480
somebody else, somebody else had something
else in mind. And you know that

188
00:14:37,679 --> 00:14:43,120
somebody else gets very animated when he
doesn't get his way. I mean,

189
00:14:43,279 --> 00:14:48,320
you know, he just freaks out. So it's really quite astonishing. But

190
00:14:48,679 --> 00:14:52,720
so we'll see, we'll see how
the rest of this hour goes. I

191
00:14:52,799 --> 00:14:54,480
know the second hour will be great
because, like I said, we have

192
00:14:54,519 --> 00:14:58,679
a great band coming in. But
the first hour, I don't know.

193
00:14:58,240 --> 00:15:01,919
It's a feel a little unsteady at
the moment, but we'll see, we'll

194
00:15:01,960 --> 00:15:07,360
see. But the studio line again
is six zo three two five six seven

195
00:15:07,399 --> 00:15:09,919
six zo three two five six seven. I do want to say hello everybody

196
00:15:09,960 --> 00:15:15,480
in the Facebook live chat and UM, and then we should probably do a

197
00:15:15,559 --> 00:15:20,080
quick check in on UH. I
was gonna call it my favorite issue,

198
00:15:20,159 --> 00:15:22,759
but it's it's been my favorite issue
to to talk about recently, but not

199
00:15:22,799 --> 00:15:28,320
necessarily my favorite to think about,
because I'm very concerned about the debt limit,

200
00:15:28,399 --> 00:15:31,519
the looming debt limit. But there
might be some good news on that.

201
00:15:33,399 --> 00:15:35,720
But we'll see, we'll see what
we get to. Our friend Cristel

202
00:15:35,759 --> 00:15:39,240
from the great state of Illinois joins
us and says, hello everyone. Tom

203
00:15:39,279 --> 00:15:43,840
Blanchard is in the chairman says I've
been away but now I'm back. Welcome

204
00:15:43,879 --> 00:15:48,159
back, Tom. We are very
happy to see you. We tease you

205
00:15:48,200 --> 00:15:52,879
a lot, but we got you
on the spot, welcome back, let's

206
00:15:52,919 --> 00:15:56,080
see j Fett, of course,
from the great state of Vermont, joins

207
00:15:56,120 --> 00:16:00,639
us, since says a good afternoon. Abort seven, well, I'm pretty

208
00:16:00,639 --> 00:16:06,559
sure is from Greensboro, North Carolina, says good afternoon. Hashtag Matt We

209
00:16:06,759 --> 00:16:11,519
said, how are you doing?
Aboard seven also said we are a pop

210
00:16:11,559 --> 00:16:18,240
singing group man band from Greensboro,
North Carolina. And we said, our

211
00:16:18,320 --> 00:16:22,000
friend Isaac Banks missed your afternoon show. Well, that's terrible. Isaac Banks

212
00:16:22,000 --> 00:16:26,440
missed my show. So that's we're
just stacking up the betrayals here, first

213
00:16:26,519 --> 00:16:30,919
a Han jop Wood and now Isaac
Banks. What a terrible day. I

214
00:16:32,320 --> 00:16:36,279
hope, I hope this gets better. This is this is rough. I'll

215
00:16:36,320 --> 00:16:40,720
tell you what. Oh And aboard
seven also says good afternoon. Hashtag Eric

216
00:16:40,759 --> 00:16:44,440
Pilcher. We say, how are
you doing? Well? The thing is

217
00:16:44,480 --> 00:16:48,360
aboard seven. I'm afraid that your
question falls on deaf ears. Eric Pilcher

218
00:16:48,759 --> 00:16:51,799
is not on the show currently.
He'll be here at four thirty, but

219
00:16:51,879 --> 00:16:57,000
right now he's on somebody else's show
talking about something else. What can you

220
00:16:57,080 --> 00:17:03,960
do? Ja fed says, I
say, hashtag boy band to you on

221
00:17:04,039 --> 00:17:07,319
a board seven says, we love
your hair do underneath your hat. We

222
00:17:07,400 --> 00:17:11,960
said hashtag Matt. While it is
true that is where my hair do exists

223
00:17:11,079 --> 00:17:18,519
underneath my hats. Crystal in the
chat room says, is Hopwood going to

224
00:17:18,640 --> 00:17:25,519
surprise you with a visit after his
show with Eric? Anything is possible.

225
00:17:26,119 --> 00:17:32,920
Anything is possible. M I guess
we'll see. Tom Blanchard says, uh,

226
00:17:33,839 --> 00:17:37,039
whoops, let me back up here, very busy room. Tom Blanchard

227
00:17:37,039 --> 00:17:41,000
says, did you ever see a
baby ruth in your swimming pool? I

228
00:17:42,319 --> 00:17:47,160
didn't get that until I finished reading
it, and I don't have a pool,

229
00:17:47,200 --> 00:17:52,680
so uh no, have I seen
a baby ruth in a swimming pool?

230
00:17:52,720 --> 00:17:59,960
I reckon? I have ja fed
says oh Man, I saw one

231
00:18:00,079 --> 00:18:04,920
in Livingstone pool and never went back. Yeah. Well, ultimately the chlorine

232
00:18:04,920 --> 00:18:10,160
will take care of it, right, I assume. Cristel says, uh,

233
00:18:10,359 --> 00:18:15,359
wouldn't it have been a media etiquette
for as I now call him Han

234
00:18:15,680 --> 00:18:23,240
Jobwood to ask you first if you
minded him pilfering your guest for his own

235
00:18:23,279 --> 00:18:29,400
show. Well, that's not a
question for me, Crystal, that's a

236
00:18:29,480 --> 00:18:36,680
that's a question for the offending party. Uh yeah, all right, Uh

237
00:18:37,000 --> 00:18:41,640
quickly Oh wow, it's already four
twenty five. Okay, quickly, because

238
00:18:41,720 --> 00:18:48,480
Eric Pilcher is going to be joining
us. I hope. Um. I'm

239
00:18:48,519 --> 00:18:56,279
not upset with him. I'm upset
with the other one. I understand.

240
00:18:56,279 --> 00:19:00,720
It's hard to say no to him. I understand. I'm not saying I've

241
00:19:00,759 --> 00:19:04,279
ever fallen under his spell. But
the man has a way with words.

242
00:19:04,359 --> 00:19:11,720
Okay, Um, where are we
with the debt limit? Oh? This

243
00:19:11,799 --> 00:19:15,400
is interesting. So this just went
up right before the show. The Hill

244
00:19:15,440 --> 00:19:21,960
dot com is reporting Democratic senators urge
Biden to use fourteenth Amendment to raise the

245
00:19:22,039 --> 00:19:27,279
debt limit. It also says in
a separate article here, jittery Democrats worried

246
00:19:27,319 --> 00:19:34,279
about Biden. I'm sorry Biden debt
ceiling concessions. Yeah, supposedly there is.

247
00:19:34,359 --> 00:19:40,799
There is progress, which is good, but we are counting down to

248
00:19:40,880 --> 00:19:44,400
the wire, which is not good. Even if we don't go over the

249
00:19:44,440 --> 00:19:47,359
fiscal cliff, as they say,
it's still does harm to the economy.

250
00:19:47,920 --> 00:19:52,400
The markets get rattled. But this
is interesting. Democratic senators urge Biden to

251
00:19:52,480 --> 00:19:55,519
use fourteenth Amendment to raise the debt
limit. Again, this is from the

252
00:19:55,599 --> 00:20:00,839
Hill dot Com. A group of
Democratic senators led by Tina's Smith of Minnesota

253
00:20:00,880 --> 00:20:07,160
are circulating a letter urging President Biden
to invoke his constitutional authority under the fourteenth

254
00:20:07,160 --> 00:20:11,799
Amendment to raise the nation's debt limit
without having to pass legislation through Congress.

255
00:20:12,079 --> 00:20:18,200
These senators say these spending reforms that
Speaker Kevin McCarthy has demanded an exchange for

256
00:20:18,279 --> 00:20:23,480
raising the debt limit are unacceptable and
that Biden should circumvent Republican lawmakers by raising

257
00:20:23,519 --> 00:20:29,079
the debt limit unilaterally, something that
has never been done before and would almost

258
00:20:29,119 --> 00:20:32,200
certainly be challenged in court. Now. By the way, I mentioned the

259
00:20:32,279 --> 00:20:34,920
other day I think I think it
was on Monday's show, Jenny was here

260
00:20:34,960 --> 00:20:40,640
and we were talking about this.
Sam Cedar from the Majority Report says that

261
00:20:41,319 --> 00:20:45,720
he's been saying that he doesn't see
a problem here. He advocates very strongly

262
00:20:45,799 --> 00:20:53,119
for Biden to to take this path, and he cited Lawrence Tribe, who

263
00:20:53,480 --> 00:20:57,400
apparently wrote an op ed saying that
he thinks that Biden should take this path.

264
00:20:57,759 --> 00:21:03,680
And the argument that some who are
advocating for this option are making is

265
00:21:03,319 --> 00:21:08,319
so you're worried about a constitutional crisis
because it will get challenged in court because

266
00:21:08,319 --> 00:21:15,359
it's never been tried, and the
amendment itself, the language is a little

267
00:21:15,440 --> 00:21:18,000
murky. It doesn't say it'd be
nice if it did. It doesn't say

268
00:21:18,519 --> 00:21:25,559
explicitly, under no circumstances can or
will the United States ever default. It

269
00:21:25,640 --> 00:21:30,680
says our debts shall not be questioned. You could interpret that different ways.

270
00:21:30,759 --> 00:21:33,440
I mean, you could take it
literally and say, yeah, our debts

271
00:21:33,480 --> 00:21:38,079
will not be questioned. You know, no one can say we don't owe

272
00:21:38,079 --> 00:21:41,920
this money, because we do.
It's not questioned, right, whether whether

273
00:21:41,960 --> 00:21:45,839
we're gonna pay the bills or not. We definitely owe that money. So

274
00:21:45,680 --> 00:21:51,119
there will be different interpretations. But
the thing that that some are saying is

275
00:21:51,920 --> 00:21:55,599
so we're worried about a constitutional crisis
where it gets challenged in court, But

276
00:21:55,720 --> 00:22:00,559
who would bring Who would bring the
challenge? Because the challenge has to come

277
00:22:00,599 --> 00:22:04,440
from somebody, from somewhere. Somebody
has to say, Okay, well we

278
00:22:04,759 --> 00:22:10,599
don't think this is constitutional and we're
going to challenge this. Who has standing

279
00:22:10,640 --> 00:22:12,240
to do that? And standing?
As I understand it, And again I'm

280
00:22:12,279 --> 00:22:15,960
not a legal expert or a legal
scholar of any kind, but so I

281
00:22:17,000 --> 00:22:19,400
can get in over my head with
these things pretty quickly. I will acknowledge.

282
00:22:19,440 --> 00:22:22,759
But as I understand its, standing
means that when you bring a suit,

283
00:22:23,079 --> 00:22:30,480
you have in some way been harmed
by the action in regard to which

284
00:22:30,480 --> 00:22:33,640
you are bringing the suit, or
there's the potential for you to be harmed.

285
00:22:36,799 --> 00:22:44,160
Sometimes the boundaries of that are stretched
quite a bit in lawsuits, because

286
00:22:45,359 --> 00:22:48,119
you would think by that standard of
having to have standing that you couldn't bring

287
00:22:48,160 --> 00:22:57,599
a lawsuit against somebody on behalf of
a potentially hypothetically in the future prospectively injured

288
00:22:57,640 --> 00:23:03,359
party on their behalf if you yourself
are not the one in danger in any

289
00:23:03,400 --> 00:23:07,720
way of being injured. So but
again the boundaries of that are often stretched.

290
00:23:08,400 --> 00:23:15,079
So I don't know. I guess
in theory Biden could do this and

291
00:23:15,119 --> 00:23:22,839
then Congress would then go to the
Supreme Court. You know, so you

292
00:23:22,880 --> 00:23:25,480
have I mean, this is our
system of checks and balances, right.

293
00:23:25,519 --> 00:23:29,200
You know, You've got the executive
branch, you've got the legislative branch,

294
00:23:29,200 --> 00:23:33,240
and you've got the judicial branch.
And so if the if the executive branch

295
00:23:33,359 --> 00:23:37,720
does something that the end of course, this happens if the executive branch does

296
00:23:37,759 --> 00:23:41,839
something that the legislative branch thinks as
an oversetp or objects to in some way,

297
00:23:41,880 --> 00:23:47,519
they then can bring that to the
the judicial branch. I mean,

298
00:23:47,559 --> 00:23:52,920
that's an hypersimplification of how it works, obviously, but I guess that could

299
00:23:52,000 --> 00:24:00,319
happen. But in theory, I
mean, it would be fascinating to watch

300
00:24:00,359 --> 00:24:03,200
it play out, but also absolutely
terrifying. So I do not want to

301
00:24:03,200 --> 00:24:08,880
see this happen. I don't want
to see this happen. But at least

302
00:24:10,359 --> 00:24:14,039
as as the American economy is,
you know, if it comes to it,

303
00:24:14,079 --> 00:24:18,720
at least as the American economy is
being destroyed and reduced to rubble from

304
00:24:18,759 --> 00:24:22,720
which we may not recover in our
lifetimes, at least it'll be fascinating to

305
00:24:22,799 --> 00:24:26,839
watch. I suppose. Um,
kind of like watching a disaster movie,

306
00:24:27,279 --> 00:24:34,160
except it's real, you know.
Um. But I guess in theory,

307
00:24:34,240 --> 00:24:41,359
so if Congress were to bring were
to bring a suit, I guess their

308
00:24:41,440 --> 00:24:45,079
argument would have to be that they
were harmed because their authority was usurped by

309
00:24:45,119 --> 00:24:49,319
the executive branch taking an action.
Because the legislative branch, Congress, the

310
00:24:49,400 --> 00:24:55,680
House specifically, that's who handles the
purse strings, the pocketbook, the money,

311
00:24:55,839 --> 00:25:00,839
the wallet, the safe, whatever
other term as I can or cannot

312
00:25:00,839 --> 00:25:03,960
think of. At the moment because
Eric Pilcher is on the line. Hello

313
00:25:04,119 --> 00:25:11,039
Eric, Hey, good afternoon,
John. I'm sorry, man, what

314
00:25:11,039 --> 00:25:17,160
what did you what did you just
call me? Um, it was a

315
00:25:17,200 --> 00:25:22,400
mistake, man, I'm sorry.
Oh oh, I see a mistake.

316
00:25:22,720 --> 00:25:26,400
Oh that's fine, that's you know, we're all human. Mistakes are fine.

317
00:25:26,519 --> 00:25:29,839
It's like the Billy Joel song.
You're only human. You're supposed to

318
00:25:29,839 --> 00:25:33,720
make mistakes. Um. And you
know, I'm not even I'm not even

319
00:25:33,759 --> 00:25:37,279
that hurt that you called me John's
name while calling into my show. No,

320
00:25:37,599 --> 00:25:40,599
you know, it's fine. You
know what, I'm just gonna I'm

321
00:25:40,640 --> 00:25:42,279
gonna be like Taylor Swift and just
shake it off. Shake it off,

322
00:25:42,799 --> 00:25:45,559
shake it off, shake it off. I'm fine, really no, no,

323
00:25:45,839 --> 00:25:51,759
don't worry about me. I promise
you that does not hurt my feelings

324
00:25:52,200 --> 00:25:55,359
at all. It doesn't sound like
you've shaken it off. No. Oh

325
00:25:55,480 --> 00:25:57,480
no, I've shaken it off.
I've shaken it off. I've shaken it

326
00:25:57,519 --> 00:26:03,400
off. I've shaken it off.
I'm I'm I'm fine. Okay. Then

327
00:26:03,680 --> 00:26:07,400
you know, uh uh, people
are gonna call me the wrong name,

328
00:26:07,440 --> 00:26:10,359
and uh, you know that's fine. Just the other day, somebody called

329
00:26:10,359 --> 00:26:12,039
me Bill, I said, I'm
not Bill, and uh, you know

330
00:26:12,079 --> 00:26:17,359
it was it was an innocent mistake. It's fine, you know, uh

331
00:26:17,359 --> 00:26:21,039
whatever, I'm I'm good with it. Really, No, that's fine,

332
00:26:21,319 --> 00:26:22,920
that's fine. Are you? Uh
I should ask you though? Are you

333
00:26:22,920 --> 00:26:26,720
calling to talk about baseball? Is
that why you're you're on the phone with

334
00:26:26,759 --> 00:26:33,039
me right now? No, I've
already talked about baseball. Oh oh right,

335
00:26:33,799 --> 00:26:40,240
right, yes, with um with
that other person. M hmmm,

336
00:26:40,640 --> 00:26:45,200
I get it. I mean yes. And he had a guest, Peter

337
00:26:45,359 --> 00:26:48,960
Stella Joiner. Oh, well,
I don't know who that is, but

338
00:26:49,000 --> 00:26:55,079
I bet he's very important. And
I can understand why you would want to

339
00:26:55,079 --> 00:26:57,359
be a part of that discussion.
And it doesn't hurt my feelings at all.

340
00:26:57,720 --> 00:27:03,599
It's fine. Well, I'm glad
we could have we handled this dam

341
00:27:03,640 --> 00:27:07,599
a complete Oh listen, I am
not, I promise you. I am

342
00:27:07,640 --> 00:27:11,880
not about to dissolve into tears live
on the air. I mean I might,

343
00:27:11,960 --> 00:27:15,200
I might, but I'm I'm trying
not to. I'm trying to hold

344
00:27:15,200 --> 00:27:18,559
it together because that's a kind of
competitor. I am not that this should

345
00:27:18,559 --> 00:27:22,240
be a competition. It kind of
feels like it's turned into one. But

346
00:27:22,359 --> 00:27:25,079
that's okay. That's okay. By
the way, I would just say though

347
00:27:25,359 --> 00:27:29,160
personally I don't I don't trust anybody
who's shorter than John Oates of Darryl holland

348
00:27:29,200 --> 00:27:32,160
John Oates. I'm just throwing that
out there. But that's fine. I'm

349
00:27:32,160 --> 00:27:33,960
glad you. I'm glad you had
a nice time. By the way,

350
00:27:34,000 --> 00:27:37,079
I no longer call that individual by
his actual name. I've decided to move

351
00:27:37,160 --> 00:27:41,839
some letters around, and going forward, I will refer to him as Han

352
00:27:41,119 --> 00:27:45,839
job Wood because that's what I because
I am a little upset with him.

353
00:27:47,440 --> 00:27:55,680
But that's that's fine to I mean, to be fair. Um, I

354
00:27:55,759 --> 00:28:00,640
mean I'm gonna move on. So
well, that's probably really good because I

355
00:28:00,720 --> 00:28:04,599
I don't I don't have an ending
for this bit. So Yes, welcome

356
00:28:06,000 --> 00:28:11,279
Eric Pilcher from h Yeah, Cedar
Rapids, Iowa. Yes, thank you,

357
00:28:11,400 --> 00:28:17,720
Matt. Yes, it seems as
if some media few tempt in media

358
00:28:17,880 --> 00:28:26,039
issues have died down. I think
the storm that was tucked her, not

359
00:28:26,240 --> 00:28:36,160
tucked her, Stephen Crowder going alpha
male on his wife. I really think

360
00:28:36,200 --> 00:28:40,680
that it can't get much worse than
that cannon. That was pretty bad.

361
00:28:41,039 --> 00:28:42,279
Um. For those who haven't seen
the video, of course, there's a

362
00:28:42,359 --> 00:28:47,079
video of Stephen Crowder. Apparently it
was recorded with a ring camera on the

363
00:28:47,079 --> 00:28:52,720
property and it showed up in the
divorce proceedings, as one might expect such

364
00:28:52,759 --> 00:28:56,640
a recording would of Stephen Crowder.
Being to be fair, there is absolutely

365
00:28:56,680 --> 00:29:00,880
no physical abuse in the video,
none whatsoever. We should be clear about

366
00:29:00,920 --> 00:29:07,119
that. But uh, but there's
emotional and psychological abuse. Gu lore.

367
00:29:10,359 --> 00:29:15,240
Yeah, I was gonna say it's
sometimes is worse the scars that cannot be

368
00:29:15,400 --> 00:29:18,079
seen. Yes, is that a
song lyric? It sounds like it would

369
00:29:18,119 --> 00:29:22,640
be. I mean, I don't
know, it should be very well,

370
00:29:22,759 --> 00:29:29,720
might be. I'm not that poetic. M Yes, yeah, the U

371
00:29:29,960 --> 00:29:33,720
there's that video. Yeah, the
Stephen Crowder stuff seems to have died down

372
00:29:33,759 --> 00:29:40,759
a bit. Um there is um
oh uh the big thing in the media

373
00:29:40,920 --> 00:29:45,000
right now seems to be the biggest
UM. I wouldn't call it a scandal,

374
00:29:45,039 --> 00:29:48,720
but there seems to be a lot
of disagreement, and and the the

375
00:29:48,759 --> 00:29:55,400
degree of disagreement. It's not necessarily
a partisan uh over that uh that CNN

376
00:29:55,440 --> 00:30:02,440
town hall with the former president uh
Don John Trump and um, there's a

377
00:30:02,440 --> 00:30:07,839
lot of controversy about whether whether CNN
should have done that or or not,

378
00:30:07,000 --> 00:30:11,000
and uh, whether or not it
was a spectacle, and whether or not

379
00:30:11,079 --> 00:30:15,160
it was a waste of time,
and uh, whether or not it was

380
00:30:15,240 --> 00:30:19,160
a low point in cable news,
although cable news has many low points,

381
00:30:19,319 --> 00:30:23,599
so it's almost difficult to chart in
that regard. But what do you think?

382
00:30:23,640 --> 00:30:26,279
What do you think? I mean, I assume you saw it.

383
00:30:26,839 --> 00:30:33,160
I saw flips of it. Yeah, and and here here's my take on

384
00:30:33,319 --> 00:30:41,400
it. The minute I heard Donald
Trump CNN, I checked out. And

385
00:30:41,519 --> 00:30:45,440
the reason being is what tree was
CNN trying to bark up? Here?

386
00:30:47,599 --> 00:30:59,640
Here's a guy in in former President
Donald Trump that ridiculed you immensely, right,

387
00:31:00,000 --> 00:31:07,640
I seemed your integrity like made call
them fake news in sidniary comments.

388
00:31:08,400 --> 00:31:22,000
And yet you're giving him a platform
with probably one of the inn I'm ambivalent

389
00:31:22,079 --> 00:31:26,240
to Anderson Cooper. I don't dislike
him. I'm not saying yeah, I

390
00:31:26,400 --> 00:31:33,400
just I'm not. I have no
feeling either or I think that's a great

391
00:31:33,480 --> 00:31:42,319
job reading reading the news. But
what what did they expect to happen here?

392
00:31:45,079 --> 00:31:49,559
Yeah? Um, to me,
it's a difficult thing because I see

393
00:31:49,599 --> 00:31:53,000
both sides of the argument. In
the aftermath of it, well, first

394
00:31:53,039 --> 00:31:56,759
of all, and I saw both
sides of the argument going into it too,

395
00:31:56,839 --> 00:32:01,559
because what happened is exactly what I
expected to happen, exactly, and

396
00:32:01,599 --> 00:32:08,240
I think probably most people were not
particularly surprised. But um but on the

397
00:32:08,279 --> 00:32:10,279
one hand, so you can say, well, you know how this is

398
00:32:10,319 --> 00:32:15,480
gonna go, and you know,
he's basically just going to give his campaign

399
00:32:15,519 --> 00:32:21,759
stump speech with Caitlin Collins interrupting at
times. And and by the way,

400
00:32:21,839 --> 00:32:23,759
you know she's She's taken a little
bit of criticism, but not too much

401
00:32:23,799 --> 00:32:27,279
because I think people think that,
you know, she did the best she

402
00:32:27,319 --> 00:32:30,160
could under very difficult circumstances. And
I would tend to agree. I don't

403
00:32:30,160 --> 00:32:35,440
know what anyone could have done differently. Um but uh. But on the

404
00:32:35,480 --> 00:32:37,799
other hand, even knowing that it
was going to be a train wreck,

405
00:32:38,440 --> 00:32:44,359
um what I mean, you can't
ignore him. He's the front runner for

406
00:32:44,400 --> 00:32:49,079
the Republican nomination, or as I
often call him, the the presumptive presumptive

407
00:32:49,119 --> 00:32:58,920
nominee. And I agree with that
you can't ignore him. I guess if

408
00:32:58,920 --> 00:33:07,279
I were CNN, I probably would
have probably to get someone else to moderate

409
00:33:07,400 --> 00:33:15,720
in to hostess, maybe Wolf Blitzer, m someone that could have kept it

410
00:33:15,839 --> 00:33:22,160
more focused. May I forget his
name, the guy who left Fox News

411
00:33:22,200 --> 00:33:28,279
for CNN streaming service. Oh,
Chris Wallace. Yes, there we go,

412
00:33:28,440 --> 00:33:34,119
thank you, maybe Chris Wallace.
But then again, we then go

413
00:33:34,200 --> 00:33:40,119
back to President Trump and this idea
that if certain people are going to interview

414
00:33:40,200 --> 00:33:47,839
him, he won't do the interview. He wants people he can bully,

415
00:33:49,079 --> 00:33:55,559
He wants people he can push around. He wants those people because then he

416
00:33:55,720 --> 00:34:04,680
exudes power, and then his constituents, his base, is like, yeah,

417
00:34:04,880 --> 00:34:08,840
we own the lid. Yeah,
and that is uh, that is

418
00:34:08,880 --> 00:34:14,079
what a lot of them are claiming
on social media. Um, Crystal,

419
00:34:14,400 --> 00:34:20,079
no, you didn't own the lid. You owned nothing. You watched it.

420
00:34:20,519 --> 00:34:25,320
Yeah, you gave CNN ratings,
you gave them money. Yes,

421
00:34:25,519 --> 00:34:30,480
we got played. Well that's um, that's what Crystal points out in the

422
00:34:30,559 --> 00:34:34,679
chat room. Crystal our friend from
Illinois. She says CNN had bad ratings,

423
00:34:35,599 --> 00:34:39,519
probably kissing Trump's but to get in
his good graces. Well also too,

424
00:34:39,559 --> 00:34:43,119
a big rating. I mean they
pulled a big rating for the town

425
00:34:43,159 --> 00:34:52,559
hall. Oh absolutely, it was
musty TV. Yeah this how could it

426
00:34:52,679 --> 00:34:58,039
not be? How Like there were
people that I know that do not watch

427
00:34:58,119 --> 00:35:04,559
cable news that we're making plans to
sit and watch this. Yeah, was

428
00:35:04,639 --> 00:35:13,880
get your popcorn ready television. Yeah, and it's like the reason why I

429
00:35:13,960 --> 00:35:20,760
was really just kind of like,
uh why I knew how it was gonna

430
00:35:20,800 --> 00:35:29,239
go. Yeah. It wasn't like
people are like you had the some on

431
00:35:29,320 --> 00:35:32,679
the on the right that we're saying, well, hopefully they treat Donald Trump

432
00:35:32,760 --> 00:35:39,039
fairly okay, and then you had
some on the left like, oh,

433
00:35:39,119 --> 00:35:45,000
I don't even know why they're having
him on that channel, right, disgusting,

434
00:35:45,079 --> 00:35:53,239
And it's like I would have preferred
I'll go ahead, Eric, I

435
00:35:53,360 --> 00:36:00,920
was just gonna say, have a
centralized approach to this, take politics out

436
00:36:00,960 --> 00:36:06,679
of it. Do you want people
to if your CNN? Do you want

437
00:36:06,719 --> 00:36:09,960
people to watch your network? Yes, what's one way to do it?

438
00:36:10,519 --> 00:36:17,000
Give them something they never thought they
would see. Yeah, and that was

439
00:36:17,039 --> 00:36:21,599
it. Yeah. Well, I
mean cable news is a business, and

440
00:36:21,920 --> 00:36:25,440
you know they I guess business was
good that night. I would have preferred

441
00:36:25,920 --> 00:36:30,920
no live audience, uh more of
a one on one format because, um,

442
00:36:31,039 --> 00:36:35,400
and part of this is a bias
that I have been from New Hampshire.

443
00:36:36,199 --> 00:36:39,159
Um And I saw our our Republican
governor Governor Sunu addressed this in a

444
00:36:39,199 --> 00:36:44,800
couple of interviews. How embarrassing it
was when h you know, Trump is

445
00:36:44,960 --> 00:36:51,760
making fun of and joking and kidding
around about about Egen Carrol and that audience

446
00:36:51,880 --> 00:36:57,559
is just laughing and they're just they're
just lapping it up. Um and uh

447
00:36:57,599 --> 00:37:00,960
that's um, you know, whether
you believe of him, whether you believe

448
00:37:00,000 --> 00:37:04,280
her, whatever it is you think. I mean, for them to be

449
00:37:04,400 --> 00:37:09,440
laughing at that, it didn't reflect
well on New Hampshire. H I mean,

450
00:37:10,840 --> 00:37:14,440
I hate to say it, but
uh, that was that that was

451
00:37:14,599 --> 00:37:17,440
very cringe and and our Governor Chris
and Nunu, he said in an interview,

452
00:37:19,000 --> 00:37:22,760
um on uh it was on MSNBC. He said that, you know,

453
00:37:22,800 --> 00:37:25,920
when the camera panned across the room, he recognized, you know,

454
00:37:27,000 --> 00:37:30,000
he knows a lot of the people
there and knows that their their ride or

455
00:37:30,039 --> 00:37:35,480
die MAGA and you know they're gonna
they're gonna be uh down for whatever.

456
00:37:36,079 --> 00:37:40,679
But um, but that was that
was very very unfortunate. That was an

457
00:37:40,760 --> 00:37:47,559
unfortunate moment. Yes, And one
thing I was going to say is Donald

458
00:37:47,639 --> 00:37:55,199
Trump is very uncouth in a lot
of ways. One of the ways that

459
00:37:55,360 --> 00:38:04,719
I think has gotten him into trouble
in his foray into politics has been he

460
00:38:05,159 --> 00:38:12,079
overly plays to a crowd. Ye
Like, if we look at some of

461
00:38:12,119 --> 00:38:17,920
the most insidniary things that Donald Trump
has said, when have they been said?

462
00:38:20,639 --> 00:38:28,119
Right at campaign rallies in rooms full
of people r Why because he hears

463
00:38:28,199 --> 00:38:35,559
them cheer and it's like euphoric for
him. Oh yeah, and what minimal

464
00:38:35,719 --> 00:38:42,880
filter he has? What minimal filter
is there is out the window? So

465
00:38:43,159 --> 00:38:50,119
then we can ridicule a journalist with
the disabilities because people are cheering, right

466
00:38:50,239 --> 00:38:57,039
right? Yeah, true, exactly, we And it's okay because now I

467
00:38:57,199 --> 00:39:00,679
have those However, many are in
that room. They're eating out of my

468
00:39:00,800 --> 00:39:07,800
hand. And when I'm rightfully chastered
for saying this, I can turn around

469
00:39:07,840 --> 00:39:10,400
and say, see, look at
what the right what is? Look at

470
00:39:10,400 --> 00:39:16,679
what the leftist media is doing to
me? Right right? That's that's yeah,

471
00:39:16,719 --> 00:39:21,920
that's the card he plays. And
I had to say it. But

472
00:39:21,960 --> 00:39:24,880
I think all of this will help
him, help actually helps him when it

473
00:39:24,880 --> 00:39:29,119
helps him win the nomination. Oh
man, but it's not going on Donald

474
00:39:29,199 --> 00:39:37,400
Trump's mailing list and the emails I
got after after the CNN interview, he

475
00:39:37,559 --> 00:39:45,480
one we did if he didn't generate
millions in campaign donations. After that,

476
00:39:46,159 --> 00:39:52,039
someone needs to be fired. Well, that's the thing, he if I

477
00:39:52,599 --> 00:39:59,960
because if I was a delusional Trump
supporter, I probably would have donated money.

478
00:40:00,639 --> 00:40:05,199
Yeah, it's um, I think
it's all going to help him.

479
00:40:05,199 --> 00:40:07,320
It does, It does help him
raise money. Um. You know when

480
00:40:07,360 --> 00:40:12,800
when when the FBI showed up at
Marlago, the reason we first found out

481
00:40:12,840 --> 00:40:15,119
about that, uh was well when
they showed up to do the search.

482
00:40:15,119 --> 00:40:19,079
So the reason we first found out
about it was because of Trump. They

483
00:40:19,119 --> 00:40:22,360
tried to keep it low key to
the extent that that's even possible. But

484
00:40:22,440 --> 00:40:25,360
Trump, he you know, he
goes on social media and starts talking about

485
00:40:25,360 --> 00:40:29,559
it, and then the next thing, of course, the uh those fundraising

486
00:40:29,599 --> 00:40:36,440
emails go out. Yep. And
what's so funny about all of it is

487
00:40:36,960 --> 00:40:45,039
Trump will often ridicule, not directly
because if he does it directly, then

488
00:40:45,440 --> 00:40:50,320
some of his constituents can put one
and one together and hopefully it adds up

489
00:40:50,360 --> 00:40:58,119
to two. But what he does, and he's very Macavalian at this,

490
00:40:59,360 --> 00:41:05,719
is he comes at people that have
played the victim card, or he perceives

491
00:41:05,760 --> 00:41:09,840
them to have played the victim card. But he is such a master at

492
00:41:09,920 --> 00:41:19,679
playing it to himself. Oh yeah, he is quite duplicitous at this,

493
00:41:20,559 --> 00:41:28,639
and it's like, how can you
not steam this, this hypocrisy right in

494
00:41:28,840 --> 00:41:34,280
front of you. Oh by the
way, our friend aboard seven in the

495
00:41:34,360 --> 00:41:37,119
chat room says, Trump by Trump, and we don't care of this man.

496
00:41:40,440 --> 00:41:45,960
It's what he does and no one
has caught onto it. Yeah.

497
00:41:46,199 --> 00:41:51,480
Um, well, it's just shocking
a lot a lot of people. A

498
00:41:51,519 --> 00:41:53,440
lot of people catch on or are
they or you know, are they eventually

499
00:41:53,440 --> 00:41:55,800
figure it out? I mean,
you're a Trump supporter at one time and

500
00:41:55,800 --> 00:42:00,239
then you got off the Trump train. But here, here's the thing is

501
00:42:01,280 --> 00:42:08,480
I was a Trump supporter, but
I always admitted his fault. I always

502
00:42:08,519 --> 00:42:15,079
said, here's the deal, here's
why I like it. Yeah, here's

503
00:42:15,159 --> 00:42:22,159
what I don't like. And you
know, anytime he has done something I

504
00:42:22,280 --> 00:42:30,000
disagreed with, I've been vocal about
it. Yeah, because you can't.

505
00:42:30,679 --> 00:42:37,280
You cannot just claim blind allegiance to
a politician. Yeah, but he is

506
00:42:37,320 --> 00:42:45,599
a politician. Anyone who says otherwise
is delusional. Oh he's a businessman.

507
00:42:46,119 --> 00:42:51,599
Really. Business is a form of
politics, oh absolutely, in politics is

508
00:42:51,599 --> 00:42:57,039
a form of business. Yeah,
absolutely, absolutely, you are catering to

509
00:42:57,280 --> 00:43:02,880
a base if you think that the
two are not interchangeable. That I have

510
00:43:02,920 --> 00:43:07,559
a litany of things that I can
disclose to you about this world that are

511
00:43:07,599 --> 00:43:16,559
going to make you very, very
sad and deprived. Yeah. Um so,

512
00:43:16,880 --> 00:43:21,719
uh what? Um so? What
do you? What do you think

513
00:43:21,920 --> 00:43:24,880
going I mean, what should be
the Do you have an idea of what

514
00:43:24,960 --> 00:43:29,199
you think should be the rules going
forward? As far as the media covering

515
00:43:29,239 --> 00:43:32,159
Trump, because he's got a weird
relationship at this point, even with Fox,

516
00:43:34,000 --> 00:43:38,000
they seem pretty tepid on him.
And I think that I think many

517
00:43:38,199 --> 00:43:43,599
organizations and I'm sorry meant to cut
you off, packed themselves into a corner

518
00:43:43,639 --> 00:43:50,719
with him. Yeah, they have. They have made hit. So he

519
00:43:51,119 --> 00:43:57,800
has control. He writes the rundown, He decides the who, what,

520
00:43:58,039 --> 00:44:06,480
len, why, and how?
Right? He Oh, absolutely, it's

521
00:44:06,639 --> 00:44:13,559
on them. It isn't on Donald
Trump. Uh, Crystal, and the

522
00:44:13,599 --> 00:44:15,760
chat room says, Trump's faults make
the San Andreas fault look like a tiny

523
00:44:15,760 --> 00:44:21,559
crack. Um. I wouldn't go
that far. I mean, yeah,

524
00:44:22,480 --> 00:44:23,960
I had a I don't know if
you heard the show Erica yesterday. I

525
00:44:23,960 --> 00:44:30,519
had a candidate and here a Republican
no candidate Steve Laughey, who is challenging.

526
00:44:30,079 --> 00:44:32,800
I mean he has no chance obviously, So if you're going, who's

527
00:44:34,039 --> 00:44:36,800
Steve Laughy, Yeah, I mean
he's got he's got no chance. But

528
00:44:36,800 --> 00:44:39,440
it was interesting to talk to him
and and uh he was um, he

529
00:44:39,480 --> 00:44:44,280
did express he did express it on
the show, and then we also had

530
00:44:44,320 --> 00:44:50,280
a short conversation afterward to uh.
He mentioned about the town hall, specifically

531
00:44:50,360 --> 00:44:53,880
the same thing I did about the
whole Egene Carol bit, which was so

532
00:44:54,000 --> 00:45:00,800
distasteful and uh so uncomfortable hearing people
laughing about that and applauding Trump and just

533
00:45:01,039 --> 00:45:10,840
just really gross. Yeah, and
that's the thing is his And I feel

534
00:45:10,840 --> 00:45:15,760
bad saying it because technically I am
a member of his bass. Yeah,

535
00:45:16,239 --> 00:45:28,559
but his his bass really does a
great job of showing everything that is evil

536
00:45:28,639 --> 00:45:37,320
and wrong in this world. And
you I tried to come to terms with

537
00:45:37,400 --> 00:45:40,719
it, and I just can't because
these are people that are like me.

538
00:45:42,400 --> 00:45:51,000
They are church going Christians, and
Christians should not act like this. Yeah,

539
00:45:51,559 --> 00:45:59,400
like you, you cannot mock a
person with disabilities. You cannot advocate

540
00:46:00,280 --> 00:46:07,079
for the things he's advocated for,
that is grabbing a woman in a certain

541
00:46:07,119 --> 00:46:15,000
area, yeah, and yet they're
like, oh, gettle Trump. I

542
00:46:15,159 --> 00:46:22,519
know, and I sit here and
I'm like, wait a minute, do

543
00:46:22,559 --> 00:46:29,840
you mean do you understand what you're
doing? This is another reason why people

544
00:46:29,960 --> 00:46:36,280
have so many issues with Christianity,
is we sit here and we promote the

545
00:46:36,320 --> 00:46:43,960
Bible and then we turn around and
promote this. Yeah, and it's likely

546
00:46:45,880 --> 00:46:51,480
No, that is wrong. Yeah, I've I've made that observation. Yeah,

547
00:46:51,320 --> 00:46:55,320
go ahead. I had someone tell
me, well, Eric, you

548
00:46:55,360 --> 00:47:00,480
were involved with athletics in high school. You're familiar with locker room talk.

549
00:47:01,000 --> 00:47:09,119
Yes, I was eighteen. I
wasn't a fifty plus year sixty plus year

550
00:47:09,159 --> 00:47:16,119
old man running for president talking with
the talk show host and expecting it to

551
00:47:16,199 --> 00:47:23,840
be off the record to be fair
to Trump, which I have no great

552
00:47:23,880 --> 00:47:28,360
desire to do because I agree with
what you're saying, but to be fair

553
00:47:28,400 --> 00:47:30,039
to him. He was not running
for president at the time of that audio,

554
00:47:31,360 --> 00:47:36,400
regardless, But but regardless, you
know, you know, especially being

555
00:47:36,440 --> 00:47:38,880
in that situation too, even if
he's just kidding around, Uh, he

556
00:47:38,920 --> 00:47:44,519
should know there's a live mic on
him. And the explanation he gave at

557
00:47:44,519 --> 00:47:45,920
the time, and we got to
go in a moment, Eric, But

558
00:47:46,119 --> 00:47:51,119
the explanation that he gave at the
time was during that first debate, after

559
00:47:51,159 --> 00:47:53,039
that came out, while it was
locker room talk. I apologize it was

560
00:47:53,079 --> 00:47:58,239
locker room talk, okay, But
then we hear the details of they came

561
00:47:58,239 --> 00:48:01,760
out in court about Egan Carroll,
and it's like, oh, suddenly that

562
00:48:02,000 --> 00:48:09,360
story takes on a new significance.
Or not that story, but uh that,

563
00:48:10,000 --> 00:48:14,639
well, what he said to Billy
Bush on that Access Hollywood tape,

564
00:48:14,639 --> 00:48:16,719
that takes on a new significance.
It's like, oh, that's really chilling.

565
00:48:17,119 --> 00:48:22,920
Um, So have you watched his
deposition regarding that. I haven't watched

566
00:48:22,960 --> 00:48:25,840
the whole thing. I've seen some
of it, and it's pretty it's pretty

567
00:48:25,840 --> 00:48:29,760
bad. I did talk about it
on the show one day. You know,

568
00:48:29,800 --> 00:48:32,800
it's particularly gross when he talks about
well, he says, you know,

569
00:48:32,960 --> 00:48:36,239
I couldn't have done this, She's
not my type. And it's like

570
00:48:36,960 --> 00:48:40,079
that that right there shows h that
he doesn't understand. You know, rape

571
00:48:40,159 --> 00:48:44,760
is not about not about being attracted
to somebody. It's not about them being

572
00:48:44,800 --> 00:48:50,760
your type. It's about power and
dominance and violently assaulting somebody. Um,

573
00:48:50,880 --> 00:48:54,159
that's what it's about. So he
apparently either doesn't get that or he's willfully

574
00:48:54,760 --> 00:48:59,360
obtuse in that regard, and then
he you know, he doesn't want to

575
00:49:00,119 --> 00:49:01,800
well that's what I mean, willfully
obtuse. And then he says and then

576
00:49:01,800 --> 00:49:05,320
he says to her while she's taking
the deposition, and by the way,

577
00:49:05,360 --> 00:49:07,400
I you know, I wouldn't find
you're not my type either, And it's

578
00:49:07,440 --> 00:49:10,440
like, oh my god, is
he actually telling saying to her on this

579
00:49:10,519 --> 00:49:14,599
deposition you know I wouldn't rape you
either, Like, I mean, it's

580
00:49:14,639 --> 00:49:17,320
so it's so gross. Uh,
it's it's really I don't Yeah, I

581
00:49:17,320 --> 00:49:21,400
don't know how anyone can be okay
with any of that. It's it's so

582
00:49:21,440 --> 00:49:30,039
gross. It's that's the thing.
Is I felt disgusting being lumped in with

583
00:49:30,159 --> 00:49:34,480
it. Yeah. Someone was like, oh, Eric, you've done locker

584
00:49:34,559 --> 00:49:42,079
room talk. Yeah, but there's
a difference between locker room talk in a

585
00:49:42,239 --> 00:49:50,400
near admission of sexual assault. Yeah. Yes, Like I guarantee you if

586
00:49:50,559 --> 00:49:54,679
anybody that was a part that of
any team I was a part of in

587
00:49:54,760 --> 00:50:01,119
high school, that's something that they
did that would have been like, I

588
00:50:01,199 --> 00:50:06,840
mean, there were some creepy guys, so sure a majority of us would

589
00:50:06,840 --> 00:50:15,079
have been like broh, yeah,
we're stepping away from you right about now,

590
00:50:15,159 --> 00:50:21,119
because yeah, we're not going to
be a part of this exactly.

591
00:50:21,920 --> 00:50:27,039
It's because it's wrong. You can't
just go up to someone and do that.

592
00:50:27,960 --> 00:50:31,079
Well, yeah, of course,
of course, Eric, now go

593
00:50:31,079 --> 00:50:38,280
ahead. Its just it's disturbing that
we dismissed that that was dismissed as just

594
00:50:38,480 --> 00:50:44,039
being him saying it was locker room
talk, and people saying, oh,

595
00:50:44,079 --> 00:50:46,840
then it's okay. Well we now
know too that he wasn't that he wasn't

596
00:50:46,920 --> 00:50:50,840
serious when he called it locker room
talk, that he really did mean it,

597
00:50:50,880 --> 00:50:55,079
because he says in that deposition,
Uh he says, uh yeah,

598
00:50:55,119 --> 00:50:58,519
that's how it that's how it is
when you're a star. That's how it's

599
00:50:58,559 --> 00:51:02,480
been for a million years, fortunately
or unfortunately. So uh he he just

600
00:51:02,599 --> 00:51:06,639
leans right into it. It's like, oh my god, what a what

601
00:51:06,760 --> 00:51:09,960
a disgusting person. Uh but Eric, we we gotta go. Um,

602
00:51:09,960 --> 00:51:13,599
we are almost at the top of
the hour. Oh don't don't, don't

603
00:51:13,599 --> 00:51:16,440
apologize. I think we I think
we aired everything out early and that wasn't

604
00:51:16,480 --> 00:51:22,199
your fault anyway, what happened earlier. I blame Han Jobwood. I don't

605
00:51:22,239 --> 00:51:25,599
think anyone's to blame. Oh,
I blame him. I blame him.

606
00:51:25,679 --> 00:51:30,559
Do not trust him. I think
we need to kind of just step back

607
00:51:30,559 --> 00:51:35,559
a little bit Facebook, Matt.
I consider both of you dear friends.

608
00:51:36,000 --> 00:51:37,840
I think Han Jobwood and I are
fighting. I think we're in a feud.

609
00:51:38,360 --> 00:51:45,679
We're having a feud. I don't
think the feud is beneficial for either

610
00:51:45,760 --> 00:51:49,599
of you. We're gonna have a
steel cage match and I will be victorious

611
00:51:50,039 --> 00:51:53,119
and it'll be great. And I
mean, as long as I'm not hanging

612
00:51:53,239 --> 00:51:57,920
from the rafters in a ladder match, I'm fine, right, it could

613
00:51:57,960 --> 00:52:06,519
be for a custody of you.
I share to Hike. Non wrestling fans

614
00:52:06,519 --> 00:52:07,360
are like, what what are they? What are they talking about? All

615
00:52:07,440 --> 00:52:10,239
right? Eric, Before before you
go though, just quickly, what do

616
00:52:10,239 --> 00:52:15,320
you have for us for Friday?
For the film review? For the film

617
00:52:15,320 --> 00:52:20,320
review this week? Um, we
are looking at the nineteen seventy eight film

618
00:52:20,440 --> 00:52:24,440
Superman. The movie. Yes,
yes, I remember watching that with my

619
00:52:24,519 --> 00:52:32,119
dad. It is I haven't seen
it in many years, at least a

620
00:52:32,280 --> 00:52:37,920
decade, and watching it again really
yeah, there's a lot of things that

621
00:52:38,119 --> 00:52:45,159
I was like that i'd forgotten and
I'm like that that's great. Yeah,

622
00:52:45,039 --> 00:52:49,079
yeah, oh very cool. Well, we look forward to your review on

623
00:52:49,119 --> 00:52:52,519

we'll save the other one for later.

631
00:53:16,760 --> 00:53:20,159

683
00:59:05,679 --> 00:59:07,599

us in studio, what we'll do is

684
00:59:07,760 --> 00:59:10,079
we'll take a break. We'll let
you guys put your stuff down and get

685
00:59:10,159 --> 00:59:14,400
comfortable, and uh, I'll um
while we do that. I'm gonna play.

686
00:59:14,599 --> 00:59:16,679
I'm play an old Mindset X song. What do you think? Yeah?

687
00:59:17,000 --> 00:59:21,119
What's uh? What should I play
from Oceans? I got Oceans pulled

688
00:59:21,199 --> 00:59:25,320
up here. I think we're always
a fan of Island. Uhland, Okay,

689
00:59:25,440 --> 00:59:31,559
no swears in it obviously. Yeah, this is there's a good twelve

690
00:59:31,599 --> 00:59:34,840
minute song on there. If you
really want to go crazy, No,

691
00:59:35,960 --> 00:59:38,039
that's all right, We'll go with
I so Island, Yeah, alright,

692
00:59:38,119 --> 00:59:42,000
Island, It is all right.
And uh and then we'll we'll come back

693
00:59:42,039 --> 00:59:45,199
and we'll talk with these guys.
Check this out. This is Island Mindset

694
00:59:45,400 --> 00:59:47,280
X, and we'll explain everyone why
I figured out play a Mindset X song.

695
00:59:50,679 --> 00:59:53,960
Oh that's cool. That is Island
from the band Mindset X. And

696
00:59:54,400 --> 00:59:58,280
you guys know what happened to those
guys? Or do you ever see him?

697
00:59:59,320 --> 01:00:01,880
That be has taking a nap right
now? It's hibernating but not dead.

698
01:00:02,639 --> 01:00:07,119
I think last time I saw him
they were in the rubore. There

699
01:00:07,199 --> 01:00:10,639
you go, getting a tan if
you're if you're just joining us here on

700
01:00:10,679 --> 01:00:15,519
Matt Connerton Unleashed. We are joined
in studio by the guys from horse Fly

701
01:00:15,679 --> 01:00:17,880
Gulch, but we're all three of
you also in Mindset X. That's the

702
01:00:17,960 --> 01:00:22,280
same okay, Um, yeah,
that band was around for a long time.

703
01:00:22,360 --> 01:00:27,039
Now is does the new project replace
that? Or well Mindset X continue

704
01:00:27,039 --> 01:00:30,239
in the future as well. And
in addition to that, I mean again,

705
01:00:30,960 --> 01:00:35,480
you know after twenty years, it's
in hibernation the Mindset X. Yeah.

706
01:00:35,760 --> 01:00:38,079
Um, but we're focusing just on
the new project right now. But

707
01:00:38,280 --> 01:00:42,119
yeah, the old one's not dead. It's just just sleeping. Yeah.

708
01:00:42,159 --> 01:00:46,320
There actually is an album written too, right ABU in the can Oh.

709
01:00:46,360 --> 01:00:51,199
Wow, it's kind of a weird
story actually when I now that you kind

710
01:00:51,199 --> 01:00:53,559
of reflect on it. Like,
so, before the whole COVID thing hit,

711
01:00:53,719 --> 01:00:58,119
right, we were gearing up to
write a new album as Mindset X,

712
01:00:58,360 --> 01:01:01,000
and then COVID hit, right,
so we couldn't get together for a

713
01:01:01,039 --> 01:01:05,280
little while. And then by the
time we started going back, like a

714
01:01:05,360 --> 01:01:07,400
couple of years later, getting back
together and rehearsing those songs, we were

715
01:01:07,440 --> 01:01:12,679
like, man, these songs they
sound they feel really old now because they

716
01:01:12,719 --> 01:01:15,079
were like three years old at that
point, right, And we were like,

717
01:01:15,280 --> 01:01:16,159
all right, well, we can't
just not record them, like we

718
01:01:16,199 --> 01:01:20,239
spent all this time writing them.
Yeah. Um, so we did record

719
01:01:20,320 --> 01:01:22,000
them, right, um, and
we released a couple of them and then

720
01:01:23,000 --> 01:01:27,800
and then we just we just said
it just just time pass something a little

721
01:01:27,800 --> 01:01:30,719
bit different, Right, you do
medal for twenty years straight. I think

722
01:01:30,760 --> 01:01:35,159
you are My sex was never so
much this, but locked inside a box

723
01:01:35,239 --> 01:01:37,960
of what you could particularly do as
a band when you're expected to kind of

724
01:01:37,960 --> 01:01:40,639
put out a certain style of music, right, Yeah, And I think

725
01:01:40,800 --> 01:01:44,400
we just came to a point we
were like, you know what, let's

726
01:01:44,440 --> 01:01:47,559
try something new. Does um,
do any of those songs make it into

727
01:01:47,599 --> 01:01:51,360
this project or do you do you
keep them? You keep them completely separate?

728
01:01:52,280 --> 01:01:53,880
Yeah? Is that the plan going
forward? Or is there a chance

729
01:01:53,960 --> 01:02:00,599
of anything? Kind of? Yeah? I do. I mean, I

730
01:02:00,679 --> 01:02:04,199
mean, I can tell you from
a personal perspective. We've discussed this.

731
01:02:04,280 --> 01:02:07,840
I think as a band is not
only is it something new from a musical

732
01:02:07,880 --> 01:02:13,440
perspective, but I think it's something
new just challenging us, not for me

733
01:02:13,760 --> 01:02:16,719
anyway, not to cover things up
with the storage or you know, to

734
01:02:16,840 --> 01:02:21,880
see if I can actually play something, you know, cleaner, because there's

735
01:02:21,880 --> 01:02:24,360
a lot more room for mistakes when
people can hear oh yeah you as a

736
01:02:24,400 --> 01:02:29,719
three piece and there's nothing behind it
that's dirty. Or grunty or into that,

737
01:02:29,920 --> 01:02:34,559
and I don't think that those songs
would fit particularly what we're doing right

738
01:02:34,599 --> 01:02:37,000
now. Yeah, makes sense because
to be honest, I think the last

739
01:02:37,159 --> 01:02:42,960
Mindseex stuff was probably the most pruggy
stuff we've done. So the other thing

740
01:02:43,119 --> 01:02:47,239
is the new stuff is flowing,
you know, unlike anything we've done in

741
01:02:47,760 --> 01:02:52,719
years. Like, we're basically writing
a new song almost every time we get

742
01:02:52,760 --> 01:02:57,480
together. We've been doing this pretty
much just since the turn of the year,

743
01:02:57,760 --> 01:03:00,360
you know, on a new year, new project. Yeah, and

744
01:03:00,480 --> 01:03:02,440
we're already on like ten songs.
I mean, it takes a little while

745
01:03:02,440 --> 01:03:05,960
to record them, but yeah,
you know they're in the set. You

746
01:03:06,000 --> 01:03:07,360
know, we can come out and
play him live. Yeah. Yeah,

747
01:03:07,599 --> 01:03:12,039
another full album written right, pretty
much right, so we shouldn't have to,

748
01:03:12,360 --> 01:03:15,039
you know, write another ten We
shouldn't have to pull anything. You

749
01:03:15,159 --> 01:03:20,519
know. By the way, our
friend Texas Mike, although you might know

750
01:03:20,639 --> 01:03:22,199
him as Michael Martineau, but around
here we call him Texas Mike. He's

751
01:03:22,199 --> 01:03:27,639
in the chat room and he says, uh, I know Stephen uh aka

752
01:03:28,079 --> 01:03:34,599
the Deviant Music through Ed Murphy and
uh and Ellie Murphy. We saw him

753
01:03:34,639 --> 01:03:38,639
at Clemento's pizza in Manchester. No, you spotted and you heard that fantastic

754
01:03:38,719 --> 01:03:43,440
commercial just about fifteen minutes ago.
I think, didn't we not? Even

755
01:03:43,719 --> 01:03:45,000
Michael? How are you? Buddy? It plays in my mind all the

756
01:03:45,079 --> 01:03:52,760
time. It is catchy, it
is yeah Clement people people get mad at

757
01:03:52,800 --> 01:03:53,880
me for singing it, but it
really, it really does. Can we

758
01:03:53,960 --> 01:03:58,400
still bad for a riff? I
can't. I didn't write it, so

759
01:03:58,519 --> 01:04:01,519
I can't, But yeah, I
have that. I cannot imagine under any

760
01:04:01,559 --> 01:04:10,039
circumstances where anyone would also doing There
you go, there you go? Um,

761
01:04:10,360 --> 01:04:13,760
now are you guys playing playing out
a lot with this project? Or

762
01:04:14,079 --> 01:04:17,280
well we just did our first show
what a month ago? Yeah, and

763
01:04:17,440 --> 01:04:21,079
then we've got right down the street
one coming up in Dover down at the

764
01:04:21,159 --> 01:04:25,440
Strand. It's a new it's a
new venue for us. Oh yeah,

765
01:04:25,880 --> 01:04:29,400
Edgewise is in the chat room and
they just posted a picture of them at

766
01:04:29,440 --> 01:04:31,760
the Strand. Yeah, it's like
a cool, cool room. It's yeah,

767
01:04:32,000 --> 01:04:34,760
it's it's nice because one it's all
ages, and two it's just to

768
01:04:34,840 --> 01:04:39,239
be a beautiful venue. Yeah.
I didn't realize it was all ages.

769
01:04:39,440 --> 01:04:43,840
That's that's hard to find, and
I mean that's important. I think this,

770
01:04:44,039 --> 01:04:46,400
yeah, something we've been missing out
on a lot. Oh yeah,

771
01:04:46,760 --> 01:04:51,719
definitely yeah. Um and is that
the show is Dust Profit on that show?

772
01:04:53,079 --> 01:04:56,599
Yes? Yes, m Dust Profit
of course. Uh. I used

773
01:04:56,599 --> 01:05:00,599
to be in a band with Auto
Kinsel Nice Chemical distance. So yeah,

774
01:05:00,639 --> 01:05:02,800
they're and they're in CRAD. Have
you guys seen Doss Profit live? Now?

775
01:05:03,559 --> 01:05:08,199
Very very intense, it'll be it'll
be a fun night because they actually

776
01:05:08,199 --> 01:05:11,880
asked us. We talked about this
a while back as Mindset X, and

777
01:05:11,960 --> 01:05:14,719
we joined the bill as Mindset X. Oh back, you know, six

778
01:05:14,920 --> 01:05:16,360
like four or five months ago whenever
we discussed it. Yeah. And so

779
01:05:16,559 --> 01:05:19,960
then a couple months ago I texted
the little chat group and I was like,

780
01:05:20,280 --> 01:05:23,960
Hey, I just want to let
you guys know we have like a

781
01:05:24,119 --> 01:05:28,280
Western rocketbilly thing. Mindset X is
kind of sleeping even though it doesn't really

782
01:05:28,320 --> 01:05:31,079
fit with any of the style stuff
going on, Can we just change the

783
01:05:31,199 --> 01:05:32,559
name? And they were like,
yeah, cool, let's do it.

784
01:05:32,639 --> 01:05:35,679
So it should be a really cool
night in music. And I think we've

785
01:05:35,679 --> 01:05:40,960
always been about screw the genre,
it doesn't matter, or just get a

786
01:05:41,039 --> 01:05:44,760
bunch of bands together that love what
they're doing and open people's minds to listen

787
01:05:44,840 --> 01:05:46,119
to different styles of music, right, and oh yeah, I always been

788
01:05:46,119 --> 01:05:48,800
about that. Yeah, got a
couple other lined up. Two, We

789
01:05:48,880 --> 01:05:53,000
got one right down the road at
the Shasky and which that's where our first

790
01:05:53,039 --> 01:05:56,880
show was. Oh well, we'll
be back there on the sixteenth of June,

791
01:05:56,960 --> 01:06:00,320
I believe ye. And then the
twenty third up at Area twenty three.

792
01:06:00,840 --> 01:06:04,400
Oh okay, my favorite new will
hang out there. Yeah, close

793
01:06:04,440 --> 01:06:08,480
to me. Oh there you go, there you go, Yeah, Edgewise

794
01:06:08,719 --> 01:06:11,159
says the straight. I assume it's
Chris in there, he says, all

795
01:06:11,239 --> 01:06:15,559
ages for those un h kids at
the strang. That makes sense. But

796
01:06:15,159 --> 01:06:17,400
why why do I hear a lot
of good things about Area twenty three.

797
01:06:17,400 --> 01:06:20,239
I've been there, but not for
a long time. What is it?

798
01:06:20,519 --> 01:06:24,480
Uh? But everybody's talking about not
just because it happened if they happened to

799
01:06:24,559 --> 01:06:28,159
be close, but everyone's giving it
rave reviews. Yeah, Kirk up there

800
01:06:28,320 --> 01:06:31,960
is one of the biggest supporters of
local music north of Manchester. Anyway.

801
01:06:32,159 --> 01:06:35,000
Yes, yep, Um, you
can go in there any given night.

802
01:06:35,239 --> 01:06:40,719
There's live music. He's got open
mics Wednesdays. I just saw an incredible

803
01:06:40,760 --> 01:06:45,039
band there. Um. Dan Bedrosian
in the Secret Army. Okay, spot

804
01:06:45,119 --> 01:06:47,880
of p funk. Oh he's playing. I've interviewed him, yeah in this

805
01:06:48,119 --> 01:06:51,039
in that little room. Yeah,
it's mind boggling, you know, yeah,

806
01:06:51,280 --> 01:06:54,920
yeah, yeah, yeah he was. He was on the show just

807
01:06:54,920 --> 01:06:59,400
a few years ago now before it
was before COVID. But um cool.

808
01:06:59,559 --> 01:07:02,239
Now, so when when you guys
play live with this project, how many

809
01:07:02,360 --> 01:07:05,760
songs do you have that you do
live? Right now? We've got ten?

810
01:07:06,119 --> 01:07:11,039
Oh, okay, that's pretty solid. Ye nine yeah, forty five

811
01:07:11,079 --> 01:07:14,519
minutes to an hour. Yeah,
yeah, depending on the jam mood.

812
01:07:15,480 --> 01:07:18,119
Very good, very good. If
you're just joining us here on Matt Connerton

813
01:07:18,199 --> 01:07:21,960
Unleashed. We've got a horse fly
gulch in the studio with us. And

814
01:07:23,239 --> 01:07:25,800
uh, these guys played live earlier, so if you missed it, you

815
01:07:25,840 --> 01:07:29,960
definitely want to go back and check
the archive and uh yeah, Paul,

816
01:07:30,079 --> 01:07:32,679
all right, tell us the story. So so again for for those who

817
01:07:32,760 --> 01:07:36,119
are of course, uh most most
of the audience, I can't see you

818
01:07:36,360 --> 01:07:41,760
except on Facebook or on ninety seven, but you've got I'll let you describe

819
01:07:41,800 --> 01:07:44,760
it. Your your instrument of choice
that you brought today. So yes,

820
01:07:44,920 --> 01:07:49,679
um so, being a unique band, we decided to try different instruments and

821
01:07:49,719 --> 01:07:56,480
stuff in facts Steve does a little
mandolin here, Banjoey there, and I

822
01:07:56,559 --> 01:08:00,480
was like, oh, I need
something, right, and so we came

823
01:08:00,559 --> 01:08:06,119
up with the song. Actually we
just played burn the Bridge and there's space

824
01:08:06,400 --> 01:08:10,199
in the middle in the in the
beginning. Yeah, And I didn't want

825
01:08:10,199 --> 01:08:15,360
to just kind of stand there right
right. So being horse flight gulch,

826
01:08:15,480 --> 01:08:18,119
you know, we were out um, me and my wife and we were

827
01:08:18,199 --> 01:08:23,439
looking for props and stuff like that
that we could use. Yeah, and

828
01:08:25,159 --> 01:08:27,680
this is happens to be one of
them. And what it is, it's

829
01:08:27,840 --> 01:08:31,199
it's one of the old riding horses. Yeah, stick that the that the

830
01:08:31,319 --> 01:08:35,319
kids used to go around and and
we added a little tambourine to it and

831
01:08:35,479 --> 01:08:40,600
now you can witness it live,
yes, you know, yeah, and

832
01:08:41,000 --> 01:08:45,840
uh I might see somebody dancing around
with it as well. Does the when

833
01:08:45,960 --> 01:08:48,079
when it squeaks? Has that made
it in any of the songs or do

834
01:08:48,119 --> 01:08:54,079
you just do that? Oh?
It definitely definitely yea Burned the Breeze.

835
01:08:54,119 --> 01:08:57,920
That was the debut of Yeah,
yeah, very good. The only thing

836
01:08:58,000 --> 01:09:00,960
it's missing is a name. Yeah, so we don't have a name.

837
01:09:01,079 --> 01:09:05,359
If anyone on the chat wants to
name the horse peace feel Free. We

838
01:09:05,479 --> 01:09:10,479
have a contest. Yes, yes, the winner gets to name the horse.

839
01:09:13,119 --> 01:09:16,199
Oh very nice, very nice.
Where do you guys record? Because

840
01:09:16,239 --> 01:09:18,960
everything, uh and and this has
been the case, you know, not

841
01:09:19,079 --> 01:09:23,000
only with this band, but with
the previous band. Everything sounds really good,

842
01:09:23,560 --> 01:09:26,880
just sounds really good. Where do
you record? I assume it's changed

843
01:09:26,920 --> 01:09:31,399
over the years, but I'm happy
to say that this, this every horse

844
01:09:31,439 --> 01:09:35,000
Flag Elt song thus far has been
recorded at our own recording studio, so

845
01:09:35,279 --> 01:09:40,039
excellent. Over the last five or
six years, I've been kind of revamping

846
01:09:40,119 --> 01:09:44,039
and kind of rebuilding that whole thing. Yeah, saving here and there and

847
01:09:44,399 --> 01:09:46,640
buying little pieces of equipment and figuring
out actually how to use it. Yeah,

848
01:09:47,039 --> 01:09:50,199
you know, so I think I
finally got to a point where I

849
01:09:50,239 --> 01:09:56,920
feel relatively comfortable and you know,
releasing stuff to the public, and um,

850
01:09:57,399 --> 01:09:59,920
it's definitely going to help us out
because when Adams ray to Late tre

851
01:10:00,000 --> 01:10:02,359
As, we just throw the mics
up and go and don't have to go

852
01:10:02,439 --> 01:10:06,479
anywhere else. It's beautiful not to
say that we might. You know,

853
01:10:06,520 --> 01:10:10,720
there's still is always the chance of
saying, let's go somewhere else that sounds

854
01:10:10,760 --> 01:10:13,880
different, or canna produce it behind
it or something happened. Who knows what's

855
01:10:13,880 --> 01:10:17,279
going to happen. But I think
from a convenient standpoint and from my own

856
01:10:17,359 --> 01:10:23,079
personal uh holy crap, I can
actually do this standpoint, it's nice to

857
01:10:23,600 --> 01:10:26,680
be able to have that. So
yeah, no doubt, Um has it

858
01:10:26,760 --> 01:10:29,720
always been that way, like like
even with the early mindset X stuff?

859
01:10:29,720 --> 01:10:32,760
Did you guys in the early days, we you know, we started off

860
01:10:32,840 --> 01:10:40,399
probably the first two or three recorded
at Steve's and then uh you remember the

861
01:10:40,479 --> 01:10:43,920
one the first place we went into
but Drum one Downs. We did like

862
01:10:44,039 --> 01:10:48,680
three full CDs there, Yeah,
Brian Sachs rest in Peace. Yeah,

863
01:10:50,039 --> 01:10:58,720
And we've also recorded at what's Jay's
metron Okale like as he calls it,

864
01:10:58,920 --> 01:11:02,399
right, okill and ask did at
Metronome yea. So we think, you

865
01:11:02,439 --> 01:11:03,760
know, at the end of the
day, I think we want to try

866
01:11:03,800 --> 01:11:08,359
something different, right, and I
think, you know, I think every

867
01:11:08,439 --> 01:11:12,239
band wants to have a different sound, and if you staying in the same

868
01:11:12,279 --> 01:11:16,119
place all the time, you get
poored. And I think we didn't want

869
01:11:16,159 --> 01:11:18,760
to do that. We wanted to
like try to branch out, And yeah,

870
01:11:19,039 --> 01:11:23,039
branching out for us was branching in
really right, and I think it's

871
01:11:23,119 --> 01:11:27,039
it's been great. It's been It's
nice to go in my studio at you

872
01:11:27,119 --> 01:11:30,439
know, eleven PM and work till
one. Yeah. Gee. It's just

873
01:11:30,600 --> 01:11:32,119
nice to have that luxury. Oh
yeah, yeah, yeah. And it's

874
01:11:32,199 --> 01:11:33,960
nice to live in an era where, you know, you have so many

875
01:11:34,000 --> 01:11:38,199
different options as far as how you
record, you know. And like we

876
01:11:38,279 --> 01:11:41,640
said, we did the original with
the first couple of Mind six albums we

877
01:11:41,720 --> 01:11:43,960
did at home too. Well.
Yeah, the first one was fun.

878
01:11:44,039 --> 01:11:45,479
It was like two microphones hanging in
a room, you know. Yeah,

879
01:11:45,520 --> 01:11:49,279
and we did this whole concept album
with just these two Chintzi mics hanging.

880
01:11:49,560 --> 01:11:56,399
Yeah. Still same mic. Yeah. One of the mics I've just recently

881
01:11:56,439 --> 01:12:00,279
found is a it's a old radio
shack and denser with a little switch on

882
01:12:00,359 --> 01:12:03,399
it you put no Kid Ain't double
a battery in there. Oh wow,

883
01:12:03,800 --> 01:12:10,760
we've found that and it's still worse. It ahead and both of those songs

884
01:12:10,920 --> 01:12:14,399
No Kid Ain't I'll be damned.
Well, that's amazing it still works.

885
01:12:14,560 --> 01:12:16,560
That's a lo fi sound. That's
cool. Yeah. I bought that back

886
01:12:16,600 --> 01:12:20,079
when there was a radio shack in
West Franklin. If that if anybody knows

887
01:12:20,119 --> 01:12:24,319
the area that was a long time
ago. Oh yeah, jeez, yeah,

888
01:12:24,560 --> 01:12:27,760
there used to be radio shacks everywhere. I think they're all gone right

889
01:12:27,800 --> 01:12:31,680
that completely, so they back online. I saw it, but I gota

890
01:12:31,840 --> 01:12:35,399
gotcha. Yeah, Adam. When
I first met you, um way back,

891
01:12:35,479 --> 01:12:39,960
I was working at Strawberries Loddon Road
and Conquered and I remember you brought

892
01:12:40,000 --> 01:12:42,720
in a CD. You brought in
a CD for me to check out Liquid

893
01:12:42,840 --> 01:12:45,159
Native, yeah my first band.
Yeah, yes, that was uh,

894
01:12:45,560 --> 01:12:49,279
now whatever ended up happening with because
I remember actually going to see you guys

895
01:12:49,359 --> 01:12:54,680
live too it Uh, I can't
remember that. No, I might have

896
01:12:54,720 --> 01:12:57,720
seen you there, but I also
saw you in Conquered. Oh she Antillies

897
01:12:57,760 --> 01:13:00,199
and Conquered. Yes, yes,
yeah, yeah, the good old days

898
01:13:00,239 --> 01:13:03,239
when it was you know, bigger
clubs up there, and I mean it's

899
01:13:03,279 --> 01:13:06,960
coming back. It is nice.
Whatever happened to that band, um,

900
01:13:09,199 --> 01:13:11,560
you know in the end, it
was just like oil and water, you

901
01:13:11,640 --> 01:13:14,359
know, like yeah, when everything
settled, you know, we all just

902
01:13:14,479 --> 01:13:16,800
kind of went our separate ways.
Yeah. The singer I can kind of

903
01:13:16,840 --> 01:13:20,239
still remember him. He was like
like a wasn't he like a big like

904
01:13:20,520 --> 01:13:25,479
biker dude, very intimidating. Yeah
he was. Yeah, he was stocky.

905
01:13:25,840 --> 01:13:27,760
Actually, now that I'm thinking about
it, I can still picture of

906
01:13:27,800 --> 01:13:30,560
the cover too. It was a
black and white photo and I think you

907
01:13:30,640 --> 01:13:32,920
guys might have been at Railroad Tracks. We were on the stairs up at

908
01:13:32,960 --> 01:13:38,800
the Stimmy corp of Engineer's Damn Up
in Franklin. Gotcha, gotcha? Yeah?

909
01:13:39,520 --> 01:13:43,560
Now after that was Mindset Acts.
Next for you. After that band,

910
01:13:43,880 --> 01:13:48,439
I had one more small project that
lasted maybe a year, but oh

911
01:13:48,960 --> 01:13:53,279
name is familiar. Yeah, there
was a CD floating around out there's maybe

912
01:13:53,359 --> 01:13:56,319
like a hundred copies in existence.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah,

913
01:13:56,720 --> 01:13:59,600
I think you still have that email
address, don't you that still email?

914
01:14:00,720 --> 01:14:04,319
Now? What about you guys?
Obviously you know Mindset X has been around

915
01:14:04,319 --> 01:14:09,399
for a long time. But have
there been other projects too along the way

916
01:14:09,479 --> 01:14:15,880
or? Uh? Definitely for me, so, like I actually was trying

917
01:14:15,920 --> 01:14:19,039
to think about this the other day. So I have I'm up to like

918
01:14:19,159 --> 01:14:24,399
about. It's over thirty years I've
been playing on the music scene. Yeah,

919
01:14:24,800 --> 01:14:28,359
and with my well, I can't
say my first band, but the

920
01:14:28,439 --> 01:14:32,239
first gigging band was Hollywood East,
which was out of Manchester here. Oh

921
01:14:32,319 --> 01:14:39,000
okay, and uh it was a
hair hair rock, hair metal what I

922
01:14:39,079 --> 01:14:42,600
call it. It's a cool name, Hollywood East it was. It was

923
01:14:42,600 --> 01:14:45,239
a lot of fun. Yeah.
So I went from that to a a

924
01:14:46,039 --> 01:14:53,640
a punk jazz band up in Maine
called pog Soldier um and then some variations

925
01:14:54,159 --> 01:15:00,199
of other bands. I started also
recording, uh the Obe Show, which

926
01:15:00,239 --> 01:15:03,000
is an all day experience of music
and art and stuff like that. Wow

927
01:15:03,239 --> 01:15:10,760
free for music, so very experimental
stuff and yeah um and then before Mindset

928
01:15:10,920 --> 01:15:14,680
X, before I joined on with
them, I also was part of a

929
01:15:15,079 --> 01:15:20,399
m It was a instrumental progressive hard
rock band. I think about that ye

930
01:15:20,920 --> 01:15:29,039
called Dreamline and I remember Dreamline really
I do? Um? Did I sit?

931
01:15:29,760 --> 01:15:33,800
Okay? Did you ever? Uh? Now, I can't remember the

932
01:15:33,880 --> 01:15:36,039
name of the venue. I feel
like I saw you. Did you play

933
01:15:36,079 --> 01:15:40,239
out a lot with Dreamline? We
we actually did a good amount of shows.

934
01:15:40,279 --> 01:15:44,439
In fact, we've we actually played
with Mindset X well, because I

935
01:15:44,520 --> 01:15:48,119
feel like I saw Dreamline live.
I can't remember where though I thought I

936
01:15:48,199 --> 01:15:53,159
thought I had it, but I
remember Dreamline Yeah, showdown at Millie's it

937
01:15:53,279 --> 01:15:57,000
was Dreamline Mindset X. Yeah,
Oh might have been there, Yeah,

938
01:15:57,119 --> 01:15:59,399
it might have been that one oh, actually late now that you said it,

939
01:15:59,640 --> 01:16:01,560
very well might have been I think
it's coming back to me, yeah

940
01:16:01,640 --> 01:16:04,479
yeah, which could have been yeah, yeah, yeah, well mad Bobs

941
01:16:05,279 --> 01:16:11,840
Bobs. Yeah. But we played
h Dar in Boston, we played Summer's

942
01:16:11,840 --> 01:16:14,600
Worth. We actually got down into
New York City as well with that band.

943
01:16:14,840 --> 01:16:16,760
Yeah, so just all all throughout
the East coast, yeah, yeah,

944
01:16:16,840 --> 01:16:19,479
or the Northeast, I should say, yeah, yeah, yeah,

945
01:16:19,680 --> 01:16:25,239
Well what about you, Steve?
So, I started a band's right out

946
01:16:25,319 --> 01:16:30,560
of high school or was part of
a band anyway called Salem, which was

947
01:16:30,680 --> 01:16:35,239
kind of ah, I guess,
progressive rock band, I guess, um,

948
01:16:36,279 --> 01:16:40,479
And that did pretty well for a
while actually, and then Salem kind

949
01:16:40,479 --> 01:16:43,279
of this band, a couple members
left. We started a band called Sage

950
01:16:43,760 --> 01:16:48,119
a sa Je which was a little
bit out there. Um, but we

951
01:16:48,279 --> 01:16:51,800
did. We did again pretty well
for a little while. And then um,

952
01:16:53,159 --> 01:16:55,720
and then I think you and I
met from a Craigstad or something,

953
01:16:55,840 --> 01:16:58,359
right, and then it was I
think it was New England Rocks. Yeah,

954
01:16:58,439 --> 01:17:02,000
yeah, I do, I do. Yeah. He was you know,

955
01:17:02,279 --> 01:17:05,760
bass player and singer guitarist looking for
drummer, and I was a drummer

956
01:17:05,800 --> 01:17:10,560
looking for them, and yeah,
we got together and we're like, you

957
01:17:10,600 --> 01:17:14,039
know what, let's just start from
scratch, new name, new songs,

958
01:17:14,119 --> 01:17:16,199
knew everything. Yeah, so I
didn't draw any anything from my past.

959
01:17:16,720 --> 01:17:19,520
Yeah, you know what I mean. Yeah, we used to practice.

960
01:17:19,560 --> 01:17:26,920
Said that first practice space was the
town clerk of Atkinson's house, really clerk's

961
01:17:26,920 --> 01:17:30,000
basement, Linda. Oh, how
jammed up in the in Linda's basement,

962
01:17:31,680 --> 01:17:38,760
don't ask we I knew a light
guy named Gary who lived in Atkinson,

963
01:17:38,880 --> 01:17:44,560
who liked Salem and he was a
fan of that Salem Sage stuff my past

964
01:17:44,640 --> 01:17:47,159
bands. And then we were looking
for a place to practice again, and

965
01:17:47,319 --> 01:17:50,279
he was friends with the town clerk
and she just loved music, right,

966
01:17:50,319 --> 01:17:54,800
and she was all about that.
Um. And I remember many nights three

967
01:17:54,840 --> 01:18:00,159
am trying there was like the scares
from Hell. Yeah, I went down

968
01:18:00,199 --> 01:18:01,680
there. You'd like have to carry
these you know, back then everything was

969
01:18:01,720 --> 01:18:04,640
gigantic heavy, right, so like
you're trying to do this at three in

970
01:18:04,680 --> 01:18:08,640
the morning, and you know,
um, but great times. They We

971
01:18:08,760 --> 01:18:16,560
probably still have equipment in those cupboards
stands the um. Yeah. So it's

972
01:18:16,600 --> 01:18:19,199
been a quite an interesting ride.
And I think the cool thing about,

973
01:18:19,279 --> 01:18:27,079
of course flag Gulch is it feels
like or kids again, you know what

974
01:18:27,079 --> 01:18:30,520
I mean? And definitely all yeah, we're not. We're not superhold by

975
01:18:30,520 --> 01:18:35,319
any means. But I think from
a musical perspective, it's fun and exciting

976
01:18:35,439 --> 01:18:41,960
to be able to write new stuff
with no nothing kind of confining you.

977
01:18:42,239 --> 01:18:45,600
Yeah. And and the fact that
the songs just keep flowing, you know.

978
01:18:45,680 --> 01:18:50,479
And that's that's from a musicians standpoint
and artists standpoint, that's you don't

979
01:18:50,520 --> 01:18:54,760
want to put a stop on that. So I think we're kind of taking

980
01:18:54,800 --> 01:18:57,880
whatever the heavens gives us and running
with it here. So, by the

981
01:18:57,920 --> 01:19:00,039
way, I've been told in the
chat room, Edgewise played with the stage

982
01:19:00,079 --> 01:19:02,479
a bunch back in the day.
I do remember that. Yeah, I

983
01:19:02,520 --> 01:19:05,880
remember that. Yep, yep,
so Edgewise. You're twenty six two,

984
01:19:06,000 --> 01:19:14,039
right, we're all twenty six here. If you're just joining us, We've

985
01:19:14,079 --> 01:19:16,000
got the guys from horse Fly Golch
here in studio with us. And if

986
01:19:16,039 --> 01:19:19,319
you have any questions or any feedback
at all for the band, the studio

987
01:19:19,399 --> 01:19:26,279
line is open six z three two
five six seven six three two five six

988
01:19:26,960 --> 01:19:30,920
seven. Also, we'll just say
hello to everybody in the chat room.

989
01:19:30,960 --> 01:19:33,600
I did mention Edgewise in there and
uh oh, Steve, I see you're

990
01:19:33,640 --> 01:19:39,720
in there. Excellent and uh Texas
Mike. Of course we mentioned earlier Melanie

991
01:19:40,000 --> 01:19:43,119
Liberty from the Great State of Vermont. We have a board seven, who

992
01:19:43,239 --> 01:19:45,319
is from, of course, Greensboro, North Carolina. These a lot of

993
01:19:45,359 --> 01:19:49,399
hashtags there in Greensboro. It's very
interesting. Now Jay fed is in the

994
01:19:49,520 --> 01:19:51,800
chat, of course, from the
Great State of Vermont, and he has

995
01:19:51,840 --> 01:19:56,399
a question and he asks this of
all the musical guests. He's kind of

996
01:19:56,399 --> 01:19:58,479
shopping around, and I think he's
running out of time. I think,

997
01:19:58,560 --> 01:20:00,359
yes, I have this figured out. By September. Do you guys play

998
01:20:00,439 --> 01:20:05,439
birthday parties? I think we'll play
anywhere as long as Anna win throws anything

999
01:20:05,520 --> 01:20:10,640
shop at us. Okay, So
yes, now I must now he didn't

1000
01:20:10,640 --> 01:20:13,399
bring up this part yet in the
chat room, but I feel a duty

1001
01:20:13,479 --> 01:20:17,840
to forewarn you about this before you
even entertain any such agreement. He will

1002
01:20:17,920 --> 01:20:21,319
probably invite you. I don't think
this is compulsory if you go there and

1003
01:20:21,399 --> 01:20:26,159
play necessarily, but he will probably
invite you to join him in an ice

1004
01:20:26,279 --> 01:20:29,840
bath. I don't know how you
all feel about that. Personally, I

1005
01:20:29,920 --> 01:20:31,800
find the idea terrifying, you know, hypothermia, things like that, but

1006
01:20:31,880 --> 01:20:35,359
apparently it can be very healthy and
refreshing. I guess I don't know,

1007
01:20:36,279 --> 01:20:39,880
so just sum up for that.
I would do it. Yeah, if

1008
01:20:39,920 --> 01:20:43,520
it's ninety degrees, oh, after
we've done playing covered with sweat, you'll

1009
01:20:43,560 --> 01:20:45,640
hop in some ice. Yeah.
I don't understand any of it, but

1010
01:20:45,800 --> 01:20:49,239
yes, all right, there you
go. These might be your guys,

1011
01:20:49,600 --> 01:20:54,279
Jay fed, These these might be
uh, these might be the guys to

1012
01:20:54,399 --> 01:20:59,399
do that. Um, well we'll
write a song called frozen. Yes,

1013
01:21:00,000 --> 01:21:02,920
feel like we're gonna all go home
like Han Solo. Here you go.

1014
01:21:04,199 --> 01:21:09,359
Jenny is in the chatwoman says shalom
peeps from Reagan Airport in d C.

1015
01:21:09,880 --> 01:21:12,960
Yes, she's flying back from Washington, DC today. Nice, Hello,

1016
01:21:13,319 --> 01:21:17,399
very exciting. Yes, yes,
um so, now what's the strategy as

1017
01:21:17,439 --> 01:21:20,199
far as because you kind of told
me this off air, but what's the

1018
01:21:20,239 --> 01:21:25,880
strategy as far as releasing new music
with this project? They're coming out at

1019
01:21:26,119 --> 01:21:30,119
one at a time every however often
Yeah, Um, as quick as we

1020
01:21:30,279 --> 01:21:34,399
can put them together and get them
out but have them sound decent. So

1021
01:21:34,560 --> 01:21:40,159
we've been averaging six to eight weeks. Um would like to hit six every

1022
01:21:40,239 --> 01:21:43,840
time obviously, yeah. Um,
but we're just gonna try and keep releasing

1023
01:21:43,880 --> 01:21:49,920
songs every six weeks and until we
don't you know, is um is the

1024
01:21:50,039 --> 01:21:55,239
idea to eventually have enough that because
I've seen a lot of artists of this

1025
01:21:55,319 --> 01:21:57,920
now where they release a single,
you know, like every four or six

1026
01:21:57,960 --> 01:22:01,319
weeks whatever it is, and then
eventually those singles at a certain point become

1027
01:22:01,720 --> 01:22:05,279
an album. Yes, So that's
exactly what the plan is. So if

1028
01:22:05,279 --> 01:22:11,279
you're looking at something particularly like Spotify, right, it's what kind of do

1029
01:22:11,359 --> 01:22:14,680
with doing the waterfall release method,
right, which we released the One that

1030
01:22:14,720 --> 01:22:16,439
Got Away, which is our first
single, and then we just released Snake

1031
01:22:16,520 --> 01:22:21,079
Dance, which you played, and
theoretically Snake Dance is our an EP.

1032
01:22:21,319 --> 01:22:26,319
Right, So you see, if
you go on Spotify, you'll see those

1033
01:22:26,359 --> 01:22:29,479
two songs, and then you'll see
those you'll see three songs. In a

1034
01:22:29,560 --> 01:22:31,920
couple of weeks, you'll see a
fourth song. So eventually all that stuff

1035
01:22:32,039 --> 01:22:35,600
is going to come to fruition and
be a full length album. At this

1036
01:22:35,680 --> 01:22:38,720
point, to be honest, we'd
like to do a vinyl run too,

1037
01:22:38,840 --> 01:22:45,560
if possibly a double vinyl album because
as a crazy Minds work, and the

1038
01:22:45,680 --> 01:22:50,399
way we've always loved progressive music.
These songs actually represent a story, so

1039
01:22:51,720 --> 01:22:56,760
one side is from one person's view
of the story and the other side from

1040
01:22:56,760 --> 01:23:01,520
another person's view. So it it. It's unique kind of concept that will

1041
01:23:01,600 --> 01:23:04,520
kind of run with and seeing where
it goes. So yeah, yeah,

1042
01:23:05,119 --> 01:23:09,560
Um, any any plans for I
mean, there's a lyric video I think

1043
01:23:09,680 --> 01:23:13,159
right for the one that got away. Any any plans for to do a

1044
01:23:13,520 --> 01:23:17,479
proper like a because it seems like
it's easier than ever to make videos.

1045
01:23:17,640 --> 01:23:19,840
You know, if you got an
iPhone and you can, you can do

1046
01:23:19,920 --> 01:23:24,560
some really amazing things. Yeah,
we got Um, we actually are in

1047
01:23:24,680 --> 01:23:30,000
the process of filming a video.
Um, what's it is? High weekend

1048
01:23:30,039 --> 01:23:34,279
in June? Something? Is it
with the release or I think it is?

1049
01:23:34,439 --> 01:23:38,920
Yeah, all right, well yes
the next song should come with a

1050
01:23:39,079 --> 01:23:42,720
video. Both released them the same
day. Cool, it will will come

1051
01:23:42,760 --> 01:23:46,880
with it will excellent? Are you
are you guys making that yourselves? Are

1052
01:23:46,920 --> 01:23:50,520
you working with anybody on that?
A good friend of mine, Christian Patty,

1053
01:23:51,399 --> 01:23:56,760
Um, he will be helping us
with the production part of it and

1054
01:23:56,840 --> 01:24:00,199
stuff and be doing most of the
editing. Uh. Um. He's a

1055
01:24:00,680 --> 01:24:05,199
you know he he's a great friend, loves it, takes pictures and wants

1056
01:24:05,239 --> 01:24:11,439
to take it a step further,
and has worked with UM some video stuff

1057
01:24:11,520 --> 01:24:16,960
before. So we are looking forward
to having a real nice classic, you

1058
01:24:17,039 --> 01:24:21,199
know, whatever, whatever it comes
out, there may be snakes, snakes

1059
01:24:21,840 --> 01:24:26,520
like that. You never know,
you know, is it going to be

1060
01:24:26,600 --> 01:24:30,199
for Snake Dance? No? You
know. Originally it was UM and the

1061
01:24:30,319 --> 01:24:35,640
concept kind of holds true. It
was nice and interchangeable. So I think

1062
01:24:36,600 --> 01:24:40,640
the next song I think we're releasing
it is called The Long Road, and

1063
01:24:41,439 --> 01:24:45,279
from a single perspective, it's got
that thing on it, that thing.

1064
01:24:46,159 --> 01:24:48,720
We don't know what that thing means, or if we all knew what that

1065
01:24:48,800 --> 01:24:53,399
thing means, we all be millionaires, right, But I think it's from

1066
01:24:53,439 --> 01:24:55,920
a single perspective, we think it
makes sense to kind of put the video

1067
01:24:55,960 --> 01:25:00,680
behind this particular song. But in
the concept for this Nick Dance and this

1068
01:25:00,199 --> 01:25:03,439
they're actually close to each other in
the story, So okay, from a

1069
01:25:03,520 --> 01:25:06,439
video perspective, it's kind of easy
to yeah, yeah, that changed.

1070
01:25:06,479 --> 01:25:10,800
So it's funny. I was having
a conversation with somebody recently on the show

1071
01:25:10,840 --> 01:25:14,640
about music videos and because there are
people who I'm sure you guys run into

1072
01:25:14,720 --> 01:25:18,640
it. There are people who have
this idea that you know, since MTV

1073
01:25:18,800 --> 01:25:23,079
stop showing videos, I don't know
if they show any at all anymore.

1074
01:25:23,199 --> 01:25:27,439
A long time ago that the music
videos are just like a completely dead medium,

1075
01:25:27,479 --> 01:25:30,960
and it's like there's really if you
go on YouTube, there's more.

1076
01:25:30,319 --> 01:25:33,039
I mean there's there's artists, you
know, of course, they're like major

1077
01:25:33,159 --> 01:25:35,560
artists who have a lot of money. Like if Beyonce, you know,

1078
01:25:35,680 --> 01:25:40,560
puts out a new album, you'll
get a video for every single song.

1079
01:25:40,720 --> 01:25:43,800
There's actually more videos than ever.
I think I agree with you. I

1080
01:25:43,840 --> 01:25:45,239
think a lot of people don't even
know a song is released unless as a

1081
01:25:45,319 --> 01:25:48,640
video for it, right, And
that goes down when when you say video

1082
01:25:48,720 --> 01:25:55,399
now it's it's reels stories, you
know, let's not even get into TikTok.

1083
01:25:55,920 --> 01:26:01,600
So I think I think videos are
more important then probably even the MTV

1084
01:26:01,800 --> 01:26:04,560
days at this point, because that's
that's all people do. We see it

1085
01:26:04,640 --> 01:26:09,840
every day, right, you go
anywhere, people just scrolling through their next

1086
01:26:09,880 --> 01:26:13,159
thing, right, and that's that's
how it is these days. Um So

1087
01:26:13,399 --> 01:26:17,600
we've as a band, we even
the mindset X. I think we were

1088
01:26:17,640 --> 01:26:20,479
never very diligent about making good videos. I mean, we made a couple

1089
01:26:20,479 --> 01:26:23,479
of good videos with Amanda. We
made too, I think, and I

1090
01:26:23,560 --> 01:26:25,800
think that's as far as we went. We were just going way back.

1091
01:26:25,920 --> 01:26:28,520
Yeah we did oh yeah, yeah, yeah, Atmosphere had a video.

1092
01:26:28,760 --> 01:26:32,000
Then we did snakes in here and
there, so we we got to get

1093
01:26:32,039 --> 01:26:34,800
on that bandwagon. I think,
you know, we've learned thirty years later,

1094
01:26:34,880 --> 01:26:39,680
maybe we should make some more videos. Yeah. No, I think

1095
01:26:39,720 --> 01:26:42,159
you're right though that now it's more
important than ever, you know, because

1096
01:26:42,319 --> 01:26:45,359
especially now, you make a video
and then you can share it everywhere.

1097
01:26:45,439 --> 01:26:49,279
And I remember being a kid,
and uh, I would with the VCR.

1098
01:26:49,399 --> 01:26:53,960
I would record videos off of MTV, you know how the Beta Max.

1099
01:26:54,600 --> 01:26:59,239
Yeah, I know I'm not quite
that old, but but I did.

1100
01:26:59,399 --> 01:27:02,199
But I did do the VHS and
uh, I mean I remember Beta

1101
01:27:02,239 --> 01:27:05,640
Max. I know what it is. But it's funny that actually better quality,

1102
01:27:05,760 --> 01:27:09,960
and yet that's the one that died. But but yeah, I remember

1103
01:27:10,039 --> 01:27:14,079
recording videos off of MTV and hoping
that, you know, my my favorite

1104
01:27:14,920 --> 01:27:16,159
video would come on and I would
record it and it was a big deal

1105
01:27:16,199 --> 01:27:18,239
and then I'd get really upset,
if you know, after a while the

1106
01:27:18,279 --> 01:27:20,279
tape would wear out, and then
it's like, oh, I don't have

1107
01:27:20,359 --> 01:27:24,319
that video anymore, and that song
is not popular anymore. They're never going

1108
01:27:24,359 --> 01:27:27,920
to show it again. Yeah,
you know, now I'm just screwed,

1109
01:27:28,159 --> 01:27:30,840
you know. And now in the
year twenty twenty three, any any music

1110
01:27:30,920 --> 01:27:33,119
video I've ever wanted to see,
I can just go on YouTube and type

1111
01:27:33,159 --> 01:27:38,439
it in such a crazy thing,
like the videos video thing, especially in

1112
01:27:38,600 --> 01:27:41,239
so many variables with that, where
like you have to keep in mind,

1113
01:27:41,279 --> 01:27:45,199
like the demographic that your band is
kind of aiming for, right, So

1114
01:27:45,359 --> 01:27:47,840
obviously, if if you're aiming for
eighteen nineteen year olds, it's all TikTok,

1115
01:27:47,880 --> 01:27:50,359
snapchat and all that stuff. Yeah, but there is still a group

1116
01:27:50,439 --> 01:27:54,359
like if you're aiming for you know, forty five year old whatever, fifty

1117
01:27:54,439 --> 01:27:58,199
year olds, I mean they still
buy cts. Oh yeah. So yeah,

1118
01:27:58,279 --> 01:28:00,000
you're kind of going to find that
weird middle ground. You make a

1119
01:28:00,079 --> 01:28:03,239
small CD run, you're at the
same time you're supposed to be on social

1120
01:28:03,279 --> 01:28:08,960
media daily and all this fun stuff. And you know, if there's any

1121
01:28:09,000 --> 01:28:13,399
social media managers out there, please
give us a call, yeah, because

1122
01:28:13,439 --> 01:28:15,640
this is not an easy thing to
do, and it's a lot to keep

1123
01:28:15,720 --> 01:28:20,319
up with, a lot to keep
up constantly changing and evolving and yeah,

1124
01:28:21,760 --> 01:28:25,039
who who does that? Like,
do you guys all just kind of handle

1125
01:28:25,119 --> 01:28:27,399
that yourselves, all three of you? Or right now? Yeah, right

1126
01:28:27,439 --> 01:28:30,079
now, we're just doing it ourselves. Yeah, I mean, Steve does

1127
01:28:30,119 --> 01:28:32,800
a majority of it, but I'm
doing what I can. Paul and I

1128
01:28:32,840 --> 01:28:35,119
are doing what I can pitch in
you know what I mean? Yeah,

1129
01:28:35,199 --> 01:28:40,600
yeah, absolutely. Um, are
there any live performances on YouTube? I

1130
01:28:40,920 --> 01:28:44,920
didn't. I didn't. There's one. It's got the first three songs from

1131
01:28:44,960 --> 01:28:50,000
the first show. Oh okay,
Um, well yeah it's um. I

1132
01:28:50,079 --> 01:28:54,840
actually requested so Tom O'Connor's friend there. I did request a copy of it,

1133
01:28:54,880 --> 01:28:58,199
but I haven't got yet. But
there is one that should be floating

1134
01:28:58,199 --> 01:29:02,279
around YouTube somewhere. And funny it
has to only as mindset X. We

1135
01:29:02,319 --> 01:29:08,600
always wanted to write an instrumental and
we never did, and then really surprised.

1136
01:29:09,039 --> 01:29:11,960
Yeah, I don't know why.
We every time we wrote the song,

1137
01:29:12,039 --> 01:29:15,239
we're like, oh, which is
this is this lyrics? But then

1138
01:29:15,479 --> 01:29:18,479
then we wrote the Outlaw, and
the Outlaw was like, this doesn't need

1139
01:29:18,520 --> 01:29:21,000
any lyrics. So it's the first
instrument that we've ever written as a band

1140
01:29:21,119 --> 01:29:25,239
is actually on this too, and
that's actually recorded. It's on that video.

1141
01:29:25,319 --> 01:29:29,520
So every time I'm watching, like, yeah, like that's all.

1142
01:29:30,319 --> 01:29:32,079
We have a call. Hi,
welcome to Matt Connorton Unleashed Too. Is

1143
01:29:32,119 --> 01:29:38,399
this I'm add It's Gary? Hey
Gary, how are you doing? We

1144
01:29:38,479 --> 01:29:40,840
are? We are short on time, my friend, So I'll just ask

1145
01:29:40,880 --> 01:29:45,039
you to be be terrists if you
would. No, I was just wondering

1146
01:29:45,079 --> 01:29:49,079
if they would do like maybe MPR's
tiny guest concerts. Oh, I can

1147
01:29:49,119 --> 01:29:54,159
imagine you guys on there. Yeah, absolutely the contact information for that.

1148
01:29:54,359 --> 01:29:56,800
Yeah, we just actually talked about
that last week in one of our little

1149
01:29:56,840 --> 01:29:59,640
band meetings. UM, so the
answer would be, we would definitely be

1150
01:30:00,039 --> 01:30:02,800
luring that option, and if we
can, um some help pulled it off,

1151
01:30:02,840 --> 01:30:05,439
we'll definitely promote the heck out of
it. So oh yeah, yeah,

1152
01:30:05,760 --> 01:30:08,720
yeah, because I've seen a lot
of I've seen a lot of the

1153
01:30:08,800 --> 01:30:11,359
good. They've got a lot of
good groups and a lot of good people

1154
01:30:11,479 --> 01:30:15,000
on there, and uh and they
yeah, they do and they you know,

1155
01:30:15,119 --> 01:30:19,439
like I just saw a couple of
them and there was this Latin group

1156
01:30:20,039 --> 01:30:27,279
all girl, and they had they
were playing with a susaphone and uh some

1157
01:30:27,840 --> 01:30:30,520
some brass and then uh girls,
but they were really good. This girl

1158
01:30:30,680 --> 01:30:35,000
was played twelve strings, played six
string. It's really good at it,

1159
01:30:35,199 --> 01:30:39,279
so very very cool. Yeah,
and then they support all the genres too,

1160
01:30:39,359 --> 01:30:41,199
which is nice. Yeah, we'll
definitely see what we can do to

1161
01:30:41,239 --> 01:30:43,840
get on that. I appreciate that. And yeah, if you guys do

1162
01:30:44,119 --> 01:30:46,640
videos, maybe you could get Melanie
to start on one of your videos.

1163
01:30:46,760 --> 01:30:49,640
You know, I don't know who
Melanie is, but it's always looking for

1164
01:30:49,720 --> 01:30:55,039
something like that, you know in
Vermont, you know. Oh yeah,

1174
01:31:30,199 --> 01:31:31,680
all right bye bye, all right, very nice. That was our friend

1175
01:31:31,760 --> 01:31:36,079
Gary, and we are we are
nearing the end of the show, so

1176
01:31:36,399 --> 01:31:40,079
before we run out of time,
I want to make sure you mentioned,

1177
01:31:40,159 --> 01:31:43,560
of course, where people should go
online. Oh question, where does the

1178
01:31:43,680 --> 01:31:48,600
name come from? By the way, where supply goals back? It was

1179
01:31:48,840 --> 01:31:57,319
very spontaneous really. Uh yeah.
We were on our bi weekly or weekly

1180
01:31:57,600 --> 01:32:00,960
little zoom meeting that we do to
try and move things forward when we're not

1181
01:32:00,239 --> 01:32:05,960
physically together practicing or writing. Yeah, and we were just thrown around ideas

1182
01:32:06,079 --> 01:32:10,000
and one of us blurted it out, like, hey, what about this?

1183
01:32:10,960 --> 01:32:12,960
Yeah, it seems to stick,
you know. And plus, you

1184
01:32:13,000 --> 01:32:15,880
know, it's hard to find a
name nowadays. Everything's taken right, right,

1185
01:32:16,000 --> 01:32:19,039
you know, you go on that
you can go on these name generators

1186
01:32:19,119 --> 01:32:23,279
online and stuff and come up with
some two or three silly words that don't

1187
01:32:23,359 --> 01:32:26,479
really make sense together. Yeah,
that kind of made sense. And there's

1188
01:32:26,479 --> 01:32:30,239
actually a horse flight. Gulch is
a place in Idaho or something. Right,

1189
01:32:31,039 --> 01:32:34,399
it's literally adult, it's like in
between two ravines. We knew it

1190
01:32:34,399 --> 01:32:38,000
would be some sort of Western vibe
because that was the salad music we were

1191
01:32:38,000 --> 01:32:41,199
writing, right, guls I mean
it's not country by any means, but

1192
01:32:41,279 --> 01:32:44,880
I think it definitely pays homage too, a little bit of the rocketbilly folky

1193
01:32:44,920 --> 01:32:48,079
stuff, right, So we want
something to fit that, and originally was

1194
01:32:48,119 --> 01:32:51,319
going to be the bar Flies right
then, just like seven million of the

1195
01:32:51,359 --> 01:32:58,039
band, I wasna, no matter
what's spelling you did or whatever they did

1196
01:32:58,079 --> 01:33:00,319
in the bar Flyes, and that
didn't even want kennel. Yeah right,

1197
01:33:00,520 --> 01:33:03,079
No, I like, uh worst
flag Goolts. It's a good name.

1198
01:33:03,279 --> 01:33:06,880
It's uh, we're pretty happy with
its memorable. Yeah, no, it

1199
01:33:08,039 --> 01:33:11,399
is. It is, all right. So what should people know about where

1200
01:33:11,439 --> 01:33:13,960
to find you guys online? Keep
up with what you're doing, go to

1201
01:33:14,039 --> 01:33:17,119
shows, get your music, all
of that. I'm looking at you,

1202
01:33:17,239 --> 01:33:20,319
Poe, Well you do most of
the media I do, all right.

1203
01:33:20,359 --> 01:33:28,319
So flaggols dot com is our official
website, and I think Instagram and Facebook

1204
01:33:28,479 --> 01:33:31,279
definitely in the two social media platforms
that we're kind of really into at the

1205
01:33:31,399 --> 01:33:35,560
moments, Instagram will probably the one
that you'll find us on the most as

1206
01:33:35,600 --> 01:33:40,199
we move forward. We do have
a band camp and there is a SoundCloud

1207
01:33:40,239 --> 01:33:44,079
and all that fun stuff, but
I think Facebook, Instagram hostflagols dot com.

1208
01:33:44,159 --> 01:33:45,680
It's kind of the main places.
And obviously at the website, all

1209
01:33:45,720 --> 01:33:49,560
the links are right up tops YouTube, right yeah, YouTube. The videos

1210
01:33:49,600 --> 01:33:51,800
will always be up on YouTube.
But I'm not sure how much of a

1211
01:33:51,920 --> 01:33:56,640
creator aspect we're going to be able
to play with that, because that just

1212
01:33:56,760 --> 01:34:00,439
takes so much time. And yeah, I don't think we chose that avenue,

1213
01:34:00,439 --> 01:34:03,600
but it is on YouTube music and
in several other pretty much all the

1214
01:34:03,640 --> 01:34:06,680
platform all all the streaming platforms are
on. So if I could give any

1215
01:34:06,760 --> 01:34:09,479
love out there, and I could
say, if you could do anything for

1216
01:34:09,600 --> 01:34:12,159
us to help the pandout, go
on Spotify, give us a like,

1217
01:34:12,359 --> 01:34:15,039
adds to your playlist, um,
because because that's with a three cents a

1218
01:34:15,119 --> 01:34:18,680
month rows in. Yeah, that's
right, that's right, all right,

1219
01:34:18,880 --> 01:34:23,199
very good, very good. And
uh we'll close out the show with what

1220
01:34:23,640 --> 01:34:26,319
now? What's is snake Dance the
current single? Or is it that's the

1221
01:34:26,399 --> 01:34:28,880
newest one. That's the newest one, so well I played it earlier,

1222
01:34:28,920 --> 01:34:31,199
but well we'll close with it too. Cool, great great song. Thank

1223
01:34:31,199 --> 01:34:33,560
you. Um, I love both
of them, but yeah, this is

1224
01:34:33,600 --> 01:34:36,920

gentleman, Adam, Steve Paul, thank

see you see, this has been wonderful.

1226
01:34:41,039 --> 01:34:44,279
