Wednesday, September twenty seven, two
twenty three, so nice to have you

11
00:01:18,400 --> 00:01:21,799
all with me. We've got a
great musical guest coming up today. In

12
00:01:21,840 --> 00:01:25,280
the second hour, we will be
joined live in studio by the Boston band

13
00:01:25,680 --> 00:01:29,840
Hands of Spite and really looking forward
to meeting these guys. I love their

14
00:01:29,920 --> 00:01:33,040
sound. They've got a couple of
studio tracks that they want to feature,

15
00:01:33,079 --> 00:01:34,599
but they're also going to play live
for us today in the second hour,

16
00:01:34,719 --> 00:01:38,640
so they will be here an hour
number two New Meredos. Really looking forward

17
00:01:38,680 --> 00:01:42,400
to that. Speaking of musical guests, by the way, yesterday we had

18
00:01:42,400 --> 00:01:45,920
on the show Fox and the Flamingos
and they came in and played during the

19
00:01:45,920 --> 00:01:52,280
second hour and just amazing. In
fact, Mike Doyle, who usually he

20
00:01:52,319 --> 00:01:55,280
only calls the show if he's got
something political to talk about, but he

21
00:01:55,719 --> 00:01:57,959
actually called the show yesterday during the
interview just to just to talk about how

22
00:01:59,040 --> 00:02:01,599
much he loved the band, and
he even sent me an email. He

23
00:02:01,680 --> 00:02:05,840
probably sent it right after the show, but I didn't see it until this

24
00:02:05,879 --> 00:02:08,520
morning. I was I was not
feeling well last night. We'll talk about

25
00:02:08,520 --> 00:02:13,800
that in a minute. But but
this morning I woke up and I saw

26
00:02:13,840 --> 00:02:16,159
I had an email from Mike and
he just said in the subject line he

27
00:02:16,240 --> 00:02:21,039
just put Fox in the Flamingos,
and in the email himself it's he just

28
00:02:21,080 --> 00:02:24,319
said in all caps, wow,
with a whole bunch of exclamation points.

29
00:02:24,520 --> 00:02:28,120
So he was really impressed. And
I wrote back to him and I just

30
00:02:28,120 --> 00:02:30,560
said, I know right, they
were amazing. So that opening track that

31
00:02:30,599 --> 00:02:34,919
I played today, that's their their
new single, Don't Be a Stranger.

32
00:02:35,159 --> 00:02:38,319
I don't know if it's even available
yet for streaming. I think I know

33
00:02:38,360 --> 00:02:40,759
that it hadn't been as of yesterday
when the band was here. That was

34
00:02:40,840 --> 00:02:45,280
kind of the world premiere of that
song on the show. But I did

35
00:02:45,319 --> 00:02:46,759
tell them afterward. I said,
yeah, that's that's gonna be one of

36
00:02:46,759 --> 00:02:52,479
those tracks that I'm just gonna play
every now and then just because it's so

37
00:02:52,560 --> 00:02:54,599
good. That's such a great track. And also I posted on social media

38
00:02:54,680 --> 00:02:59,479
last night, I said, uh
uh, no disrespect to Fleetwood Mac,

39
00:02:59,520 --> 00:03:04,400
but Fox and the Flamingos just played
the best rendition of Rhiannon that I've ever

40
00:03:04,439 --> 00:03:08,080
heard in my life. It was
so good, so good. Also,

41
00:03:08,199 --> 00:03:13,560
I want to get I think I
had said it on air, but I

42
00:03:13,599 --> 00:03:16,520
wanted I talked to her a little
bit off air too, Mazie's father,

43
00:03:16,680 --> 00:03:22,560
Mazie from Fox and the Flamingos,
her dad, apparently you heard this come

44
00:03:22,639 --> 00:03:27,240
up yesterday if you're if you heard
the show. Wasn't a boy band back

45
00:03:27,280 --> 00:03:35,159
in the day and managed run whatever
by Lou Pearlman. And I said to

46
00:03:35,199 --> 00:03:37,759
Mazie, I says, oh my
god, I have to I have to

47
00:03:37,759 --> 00:03:39,759
interview your dad. I have to
have him on the show. I would

48
00:03:39,800 --> 00:03:44,199
just be fascinated to talk to him
because and it was the boy band was

49
00:03:44,319 --> 00:03:46,360
a group that I was not familiar
with, so clearly not on the level

50
00:03:46,360 --> 00:03:50,759
of say the Backstreet Boys or n
Syncor ninety eight degrees or some of the

51
00:03:50,759 --> 00:03:55,000
other boy bands from that era in
terms of success. But but I I

52
00:03:55,080 --> 00:04:00,400
remember reading a lot and hearing a
lot about Lou Pearlman. And for those

53
00:04:00,439 --> 00:04:04,000
of you who don't know, Lou
Pearlman was this guy. He was this

54
00:04:04,120 --> 00:04:10,960
rich guy who wanted to get into
the entertainment business and he started managing these

55
00:04:11,639 --> 00:04:15,560
or I think he started at his
own record label actually Transcontinental or something,

56
00:04:15,919 --> 00:04:20,959
some generic sounding name and UH and
he started bringing on these these boy bands

57
00:04:21,000 --> 00:04:25,560
and putting them together and so forth. But I think he might be in

58
00:04:25,600 --> 00:04:31,480
prison now because he got into a
lot of trouble and he ended up getting

59
00:04:31,480 --> 00:04:36,040
sued by the different groups that were
working with him, like UH in Sync

60
00:04:36,120 --> 00:04:39,480
was one of them. I remember
they sued him, I think to get

61
00:04:39,519 --> 00:04:43,399
out of their contract, and because
he turned out to be not exactly an

62
00:04:43,399 --> 00:04:47,319
honest broker in terms of business and
was stealing a lot of money from these

63
00:04:47,480 --> 00:04:51,240
groups he was managing and had on
his label. I don't remember all the

64
00:04:51,279 --> 00:04:58,920
details, but but Maizie made a
comment that her dad was a little bit

65
00:04:59,519 --> 00:05:01,759
a little bit skeeved out by I
think the young people say that, right,

66
00:05:01,800 --> 00:05:08,680
skeeved out by by lou Pearlman at
their very first meeting, and was

67
00:05:08,800 --> 00:05:13,360
very suspicious of him. So I
just think that would be a fascinating conversation

68
00:05:13,480 --> 00:05:16,720
have. So I want to get
Mazie's dad on the show too. But

69
00:05:16,720 --> 00:05:21,160
but yeah, they were amazing Fox
and the Flamingos just incredible. Uh So

70
00:05:21,240 --> 00:05:25,079
today on the show in the second
hour, we have Hands of Spite,

71
00:05:25,120 --> 00:05:29,600
and then tomorrow on the show we're
gonna be joined by After the Winter,

72
00:05:30,319 --> 00:05:35,279
another really really great band and so
much great talent around here. So also

73
00:05:35,519 --> 00:05:40,800
regarding today a programming note, well, actually we'll hold we'll hold off on

74
00:05:40,879 --> 00:05:44,360
that because I think our friend Charles
is on the line. Charles is that

75
00:05:44,439 --> 00:05:48,959
you. Oh yeah, I had
to chime in on Louke Pelman because my

76
00:05:49,000 --> 00:05:55,079
wife, who is got a huge
love affair with the Backstreet Poison, I

77
00:05:55,079 --> 00:05:59,399
mean almost to the point of fantasy. Yes, I'm not going to join

78
00:05:59,480 --> 00:06:00,920
the much set on that. You
just use your imagination on that one.

79
00:06:01,000 --> 00:06:10,079
Sure, But she apparently knows the
entire bio of Louke Perlman because they drugged

80
00:06:10,120 --> 00:06:15,839
the boys under the water and then
some next with them big time. Oh

81
00:06:15,079 --> 00:06:18,839
I think, you know, they
are the ones that got most of the

82
00:06:18,920 --> 00:06:24,079
damage with from from Perlman. But
to my understanding, at least that's what

83
00:06:24,160 --> 00:06:28,439
she says. I don't know,
but she also just sains that the in

84
00:06:28,639 --> 00:06:30,560
sync fan too, So oh really, I don't know if it's just saying,

85
00:06:30,560 --> 00:06:33,279
you know, to make it look
popular, but yeah, Luke Perlman

86
00:06:34,040 --> 00:06:40,240
apparently he put the idea up,
but he kept most of the profits.

87
00:06:40,600 --> 00:06:43,600
Yeah, I guess it was like
bringing the contract and stuff like that,

88
00:06:43,680 --> 00:06:48,759
and I'm not sure about indezzling,
but yeah, he's he's in for a

89
00:06:48,759 --> 00:06:51,519
lot of money in regards to being
in prison. So you're right on that.

90
00:06:51,879 --> 00:06:57,439
So he is in prison right now. Yeah, yeah, that's what

91
00:06:57,519 --> 00:07:00,879
I thought. Yeah, I seem
to remember, didn't he really take advantage

92
00:07:00,920 --> 00:07:03,600
financially because you know, he's got
these young guys, I mean, some

93
00:07:03,639 --> 00:07:08,360
of them teenagers still at that point
that he's signing, and I'm sure he's

94
00:07:08,360 --> 00:07:11,800
promising them the world, and you
know, to be fair, they did

95
00:07:11,839 --> 00:07:15,959
become very famous while working with him. But but but he was taking taking

96
00:07:15,959 --> 00:07:19,680
most of the money, which is
uh, you know, and even with

97
00:07:19,839 --> 00:07:25,519
entertainment contracts, which very often are
predatory, it won't necessarily hold up in

98
00:07:25,560 --> 00:07:28,800
court if you're if you're taking advantage
of people just because you put something in

99
00:07:28,839 --> 00:07:31,560
a contract like for example, I'm
gonna make you famous, but I get

100
00:07:31,600 --> 00:07:36,720
all the money, that's not necessarily
going to hold up in court. Yeah,

101
00:07:36,720 --> 00:07:41,199
it's also too it's like you're having
these fourteen and fifteen year old boys

102
00:07:41,240 --> 00:07:45,120
find this deal and I'm sure that
I'm sure that parents like say, yeah,

103
00:07:45,199 --> 00:07:47,480
go after whatever, right, you
know, so they're they're behind it.

104
00:07:47,519 --> 00:07:51,079
But it's like, yeah, you're
kind of like you're kind of sewing

105
00:07:51,120 --> 00:07:54,360
a bag of goods, and it's
like, you know, it's gonna be

106
00:07:54,439 --> 00:07:58,839
all this great deal and this great
awesome thing, and meanwhile you're touring the

107
00:07:58,839 --> 00:08:03,560
country, staying in some three star
hotel and lou Perlman's over there building mansions,

108
00:08:03,600 --> 00:08:07,519
like yeah, you know, it's
like it doesn't seem that great when

109
00:08:07,519 --> 00:08:13,439
it actually happens. But apparently,
according to the Backsteae Boys start line,

110
00:08:13,439 --> 00:08:16,639
which by the way, there is
a movie about it, and it does

111
00:08:16,879 --> 00:08:20,680
it does say about how they got. They got hammered thumb Perlman, not

112
00:08:20,759 --> 00:08:26,079
literally fuck they got. They got
hammered by him, and they didn't make

113
00:08:26,120 --> 00:08:28,720
hardly any money when their first big
hits came out, right, So it's

114
00:08:28,759 --> 00:08:33,559
like, you see, you're seeing
him make new music. Now they're keeping

115
00:08:33,720 --> 00:08:35,720
I mean, of course, you
know, they're making it a lot better

116
00:08:35,759 --> 00:08:39,080
than they were back then. But
like their first three I think Alyssa said,

117
00:08:39,519 --> 00:08:45,480
three or four records they like barely
made any money off of because he

118
00:08:45,600 --> 00:08:50,039
just sucked them so dry. Wow, well they did, uh they did

119
00:08:50,039 --> 00:08:54,399
come out of it. Uh,
you know, okay obviously, but oh

120
00:08:54,440 --> 00:08:58,600
yeah, they they obviously got their
fame and just whatever they right turns to

121
00:08:58,679 --> 00:09:01,200
gold with all these teeny bos.
My god. Now, of course te

122
00:09:01,360 --> 00:09:07,159
pop is being late thirties now,
but they're still they're still you know,

123
00:09:07,159 --> 00:09:09,120
they still got their fan clubs going
on. Yeah, I mean, now

124
00:09:09,120 --> 00:09:11,919
when they have a hit song,
it's on the adult contemporary charts, but

125
00:09:13,000 --> 00:09:16,080
nothing wrong with that. A hit
is a hit. I love, yeah,

126
00:09:16,120 --> 00:09:20,480
I love I love that track about
five years ago. You know the

127
00:09:20,519 --> 00:09:22,919
song. I'm sure you've heard it
because Alyssa so into them. Uh,

128
00:09:22,960 --> 00:09:28,240
don't go break in my heart not
not not not the Uh yeah, I've

129
00:09:28,279 --> 00:09:33,679
heard of it. I've heard of
about a few million times against my will.

130
00:09:33,799 --> 00:09:37,360
So that's that's downright torture in my
book. Right now. I think

131
00:09:37,399 --> 00:09:43,639
that's a great track. It's so
catchy. I love that song. Realistically.

132
00:09:43,679 --> 00:09:46,120
We saw them in concert I think
last year, year before or whatever.

133
00:09:46,320 --> 00:09:52,320
Yeah, just when they when they
came to the Tampa And honestly,

134
00:09:52,480 --> 00:09:58,679
they're they're great performers, they really
are they And only the only regret I

135
00:09:58,759 --> 00:10:03,639
have I didn't bring enough ear plugs
wasn't for the music. It was the

136
00:10:03,720 --> 00:10:09,080
girls screaming as loud as they can
right behind me. Yeah. It was

137
00:10:09,120 --> 00:10:11,679
not enough, how and all to
get rid of that headache. But they're

138
00:10:11,720 --> 00:10:16,200
great. They're really great performers.
They they lit it up. Man,

139
00:10:16,440 --> 00:10:18,720
they did really good. Yeah.
Yeah, no I'm not. I'm not

140
00:10:18,759 --> 00:10:24,399
surprised. Yeah, all right,
all right, go ahead, bring my

141
00:10:24,480 --> 00:10:26,399
two cents in. Yeah, I
appreciate it. Charles, thank you for

142
00:10:26,440 --> 00:10:30,320
the call. All right, all
right, all right, bye bye,

143
00:10:30,799 --> 00:10:35,480
all right. That was Charles Richardson
from Florida and uh yeah, Lou Pearlman.

144
00:10:35,960 --> 00:10:39,720
Very interesting story. So, like
I said, hopefully, hopefully we

145
00:10:39,759 --> 00:10:43,120

of course you can act endo Pine
in the Facebook live chat and we will

151
00:11:03,879 --> 00:11:05,399
say hello everybody in there in a
moment. But the best thing to do

152
00:11:05,480 --> 00:11:09,000
so that we can hear and enjoy
your dulcet tones is to give us a

153
00:11:09,000 --> 00:11:11,759
call at six zero three two five
six zero seven. By the way,

154
00:11:11,799 --> 00:11:15,360
so quick programming note, because it
is Wednesday, so as you may have

155
00:11:15,440 --> 00:11:18,919
noticed, we have not had last
week. We didn't have and we don't

156
00:11:18,240 --> 00:11:24,679
have the segment this week either.
My favorite conservative Eric Pilcher not joining us

157
00:11:24,679 --> 00:11:28,039
again this week. Hopefully we can
resume that next week. Here's what's going

158
00:11:28,080 --> 00:11:35,080
on. Just briefly. Eric's schedule
is busy and because of other obligations,

159
00:11:35,480 --> 00:11:39,679
it's become impossible for him to join
us during the first hour on Wednesdays,

160
00:11:39,679 --> 00:11:46,759
Like he had been, so beginning
next week, because I discussed it with

161
00:11:46,840 --> 00:11:50,519
Jenny. Jenny does all the scheduling
of the guests, and so starting next

162
00:11:50,519 --> 00:11:54,960
week, what we're gonna try to
do is not have musical guests on Wednesdays

163
00:11:54,039 --> 00:11:56,960
in the second hour. And we
always have musical guests in the second hour

164
00:11:58,000 --> 00:12:01,200
because if they want to come in
and play live, that's that's got to

165
00:12:01,240 --> 00:12:03,519
be in the second hour. That
that won't work in the first hour for

166
00:12:03,639 --> 00:12:07,080
various reasons. But so what we'll
what we're gonna do is the plan is

167
00:12:07,279 --> 00:12:13,039
Saturday next week, will we'll leave
that second hour open so that Eric will

168
00:12:13,080 --> 00:12:15,480
be able to join us in the
second hour, so that we can resume

169
00:12:15,519 --> 00:12:18,639
that segment because I really enjoy it. I always look forward to get and

170
00:12:18,639 --> 00:12:20,279
to hang out with Eric for the
hour, and I know a lot of

171
00:12:20,279 --> 00:12:24,879
the listeners enjoy it as well.
So just a brief explanation if you're wondering

172
00:12:24,200 --> 00:12:28,679
Eric will return next week. Of
course we'll have his film review on Friday

173
00:12:28,759 --> 00:12:33,200
too. But Shannon is on the
line. High Shannon as good afternoon.

174
00:12:33,639 --> 00:12:39,720
Hello. Didn't a lot of record
producers executives do that to a lot of

175
00:12:39,720 --> 00:12:45,840
people that back in the day,
like George Michael Tony and back in the

176
00:12:45,879 --> 00:12:48,519
day. I'm sure it still happens
now. I mean, it's a dirty

177
00:12:48,519 --> 00:12:52,320
business, Shannon, It's a dirty
business. People have more freedom to do

178
00:12:52,399 --> 00:12:56,240
it themselves with the computers and stuff. Well, that's the thing, you

179
00:12:56,240 --> 00:13:00,000
know, You've really it's funny.
I was thinking about this just recently.

180
00:13:00,559 --> 00:13:03,679
You've really got in this era.
This is how I think about it.

181
00:13:03,720 --> 00:13:07,000
In the music industry, You've kind
of got two systems that run concurrently.

182
00:13:07,120 --> 00:13:11,759
You've got the old system, which
is, you know, you you get

183
00:13:11,759 --> 00:13:16,159
signed by a record label and there
they release your music and you go on

184
00:13:16,240 --> 00:13:20,320
tour and you do all that.
And then you've got the new system online

185
00:13:20,440 --> 00:13:22,559
where you can do it however you
want to and really kind of take your

186
00:13:22,559 --> 00:13:26,080
fate in your own hands because you
can you can do everything yourself and you

187
00:13:26,120 --> 00:13:30,440
don't necessarily need a record label or
even a management team or any of that,

188
00:13:30,799 --> 00:13:33,120
and and uh, and so you
can you can do it either way,

189
00:13:33,320 --> 00:13:35,480
or you can do it both ways. I mean, these these two

190
00:13:35,519 --> 00:13:41,320
ways of doing it are not mutually
exclusive, obviously, but but yeah,

191
00:13:41,399 --> 00:13:43,519
you you know, the old system
is still very much alive and well,

192
00:13:45,399 --> 00:13:48,559
but you do have other ways of
going about it, certainly that you didn't

193
00:13:48,600 --> 00:13:52,840
have twenty years ago. Yeah,
well, at least at least there's another

194
00:13:52,960 --> 00:13:58,120
option, you know now, Yes, uh. In something I want to

195
00:13:58,120 --> 00:14:05,639
say yesterday, I was reminded earlier
to when you go to the pharmacy to

196
00:14:05,679 --> 00:14:11,360
get your vaccine, corporate, at
least the one the pharmacy I go to,

197
00:14:13,320 --> 00:14:18,519
doesn't care that the pharmacist is the
one that has to run out and

198
00:14:18,559 --> 00:14:22,840
give someone a shot and run back
and do the pharmacy thing. They don't,

199
00:14:22,960 --> 00:14:28,840
in other words, provide anyone extra
for the inoculations or vaccines whatever.

200
00:14:30,879 --> 00:14:33,080
Well, I'm sure it depends.
I'm sure it depends where you go.

201
00:14:33,360 --> 00:14:35,519
I mean, you know, a
lot of places are shorthanded. Right now,

202
00:14:35,919 --> 00:14:39,159
I can tell you the right aid
on McGregor Street. They seem to

203
00:14:39,200 --> 00:14:41,399
run a pretty tight ship as far
as that goes from what I've seen.

204
00:14:41,440 --> 00:14:45,120
But it depends where you go a
lot of places don't have enough help.

205
00:14:46,639 --> 00:14:50,840
Yeah, well, there's not having
enough help, and then there's corporate being

206
00:14:50,879 --> 00:14:54,960
too cheap to one or hire someone
to sit there and give the shots while

207
00:14:54,960 --> 00:15:01,919
the pharmacists does their job. Yeah, says job to do. Hey,

208
00:15:01,279 --> 00:15:05,759
you can't afford it, hire a
volunteer nurse, you know. Yeah,

209
00:15:05,919 --> 00:15:09,960
I guess I don't know if there's
only so many people to hire it.

210
00:15:11,639 --> 00:15:16,960
We're sitting we're sitting at we're sitting
at three and a half percent unemployment with

211
00:15:18,000 --> 00:15:20,879
no end to it in sight.
So, uh, you know, there's

212
00:15:20,919 --> 00:15:24,240
only so much you can do as
far as hiring people. You gotta have

213
00:15:24,279 --> 00:15:30,759
people to hire. And yeah,
oh and and I tried calling yesterday,

214
00:15:30,799 --> 00:15:37,360
but uh, it's amazing Ray right, Yes, I believe so. She

215
00:15:37,200 --> 00:15:41,960
They were all awesome. But I
love that growl she's got. I'd love

216
00:15:41,000 --> 00:15:45,440
to be able to know how to
do that. M h. That that

217
00:15:46,519 --> 00:15:50,120
I can't do it, so I
can't. Sure you're an example, sure,

218
00:15:50,679 --> 00:15:56,679
yea amazing singer. The whole band
is fantastic, Yeah, absolutely,

219
00:15:56,799 --> 00:15:58,960
And I just wanted to say,
awesome job. And that was great.

220
00:16:00,720 --> 00:16:04,399
Yeah yeah, big, big,
big, big success with the audience,

221
00:16:04,399 --> 00:16:08,639
that's for sure. Everybody loved it. Yep. And the next one.

222
00:16:08,840 --> 00:16:15,559
Here's an idea for the next uh
indictment report or whatever about Trump be there.

223
00:16:18,799 --> 00:16:22,360
Uh it's gonna start his own band
when he's in prison, Colored iron

224
00:16:22,440 --> 00:16:30,279
bars. Mhm. But I'm all
right, Shannon or something. I could

225
00:16:30,320 --> 00:16:33,799
just sticking bars. I don't know, there's doors too whatever. Okay,

226
00:16:34,320 --> 00:16:37,440
all right, I don't want to
make it angry by all right, Shannon,

227
00:16:40,440 --> 00:16:42,399
make who angry? All right?
Very good? H Well that was

228
00:16:42,440 --> 00:16:45,440
our friend, Shannon, and that
does open up the line for you.

229
00:16:45,519 --> 00:16:48,919
Six zero three two five six seven
six three two five six seven. By

230
00:16:48,960 --> 00:16:52,960
the way, speaking of getting vaccinated, and I did make brief mention of

231
00:16:52,000 --> 00:16:56,039
this earlier, So yeah, last
night I was in rough shape, so

232
00:16:56,279 --> 00:17:03,039
I got vaccinated. I got the
updated COVID vaccine in the morning. Maderna

233
00:17:03,120 --> 00:17:07,000
and uh and the flu shot got
him both, so did Jenny. But

234
00:17:07,160 --> 00:17:10,960
I always seem to have a reaction, and in the past it's just made

235
00:17:11,000 --> 00:17:15,960
me very, very fatigued, very
tired, usually in the evening. You

236
00:17:15,960 --> 00:17:18,240
know, if I get vaccinated for
a sing in the morning, by the

237
00:17:18,240 --> 00:17:22,720
time I'm done doing the show here
and I'm getting ready to head home,

238
00:17:22,920 --> 00:17:26,920
I'm like, I start to really
feel it. Oh, yesterday was bad

239
00:17:26,839 --> 00:17:30,720
because I was not only fatigued,
but I had a splitting headache and I

240
00:17:30,799 --> 00:17:33,000
just I went home after the show. I made it through the show no

241
00:17:33,079 --> 00:17:36,240
problem, and I think having a
you know, having a great band here

242
00:17:36,279 --> 00:17:38,880
always kind of energizes me anyway,
So I think that that kept me going.

243
00:17:38,880 --> 00:17:41,240
If if I was just sitting here
doing the show by myself with no

244
00:17:41,359 --> 00:17:45,039
guests, I don't know. I
don't know how if I would have made

245
00:17:45,039 --> 00:17:48,440
it through the show, but no, I'm sure I would have, but

246
00:17:48,640 --> 00:17:52,000
I would have been struggling. But
yeah, I went home and I just

247
00:17:52,079 --> 00:17:53,960
kind of collapsed on the couch and
Jenny went and got a blanket to put

248
00:17:53,960 --> 00:17:56,440
over me, and I was just
it was like I had it. I

249
00:17:56,480 --> 00:18:00,880
was running a fever one hundred point
nine. Jenny took the tamp and this

250
00:18:00,920 --> 00:18:03,000
morning the fever was gone, so
and I feel much much better. Still

251
00:18:03,000 --> 00:18:07,640
not one hundred percent, but I
really had a You know that that seems

252
00:18:07,640 --> 00:18:10,440
to be the standard side effect that
I get after getting a COVID shot.

253
00:18:10,559 --> 00:18:12,759
Is it just kind of takes me
down that night, and then in the

254
00:18:14,079 --> 00:18:17,880
next day I'm fine or close to
it. But but yeah, that's why

255
00:18:18,000 --> 00:18:21,519
I made that comment earlier. I
didn't see Mike's email till this morning.

256
00:18:21,519 --> 00:18:23,000
He probably sent it right after the
show or during the show, and I

257
00:18:23,039 --> 00:18:27,039
just didn't see it until today because
I was so wiped out. But but

258
00:18:27,119 --> 00:18:30,839
from what I've read, you know, that's that's actually a good thing.

259
00:18:30,839 --> 00:18:33,799
If you have a reaction like that
to getting vaccinated, it's a good thing

260
00:18:33,880 --> 00:18:40,160
because what that indicates is that your
immune system is reacting to the to the

261
00:18:40,240 --> 00:18:42,799
vaccine, the you know, the
message. That's why they call it messenger

262
00:18:42,960 --> 00:18:48,440
RNA. Uh, the information that
the vaccine is giving to your immune system.

263
00:18:48,799 --> 00:18:52,000
And uh so, uh, you
know, I'd much rather have one

264
00:18:52,119 --> 00:18:57,920
night of feeling horrible than getting COVID
and having five, seven, ten days

265
00:18:59,000 --> 00:19:03,880
of feeling horror or worse. So
so well worth it. But oh boy,

266
00:19:03,960 --> 00:19:07,880
this one, this one hit me
hard though, but definitely worth it.

267
00:19:07,240 --> 00:19:10,400
Get to you know, get it
done, get it out of the

268
00:19:10,480 --> 00:19:15,599
way. Uh, let's see.
Oh Hans Smith from Sepsis is in the

269
00:19:15,599 --> 00:19:18,279
Facebook live chat and says I've had
after effects after from the shot. Oh

270
00:19:18,400 --> 00:19:21,799
yeah, yeah. But like I
said, it's it's actually a good thing

271
00:19:22,680 --> 00:19:26,640
because it means that your your immune
system is reacting appropriately to the vaccine.

272
00:19:26,720 --> 00:19:30,599
So and it gets the message.
Uh, if you'd like to join us

273
00:19:30,759 --> 00:19:33,599

few minutes ago, is also in the

278
00:19:48,440 --> 00:19:53,759
chat room. He says, Olah, fellow Connor tonights or actually he wrote

279
00:19:53,799 --> 00:19:57,160
Connor to Eyer's. I don't know
if that's supposed to be Connor Tonights or

280
00:19:57,160 --> 00:20:00,759
if he's trying out a new uh, a new nickname for us all.

281
00:20:02,400 --> 00:20:07,359
Jenny is in the chat, of
course, and says shalom peeps. Crystal

282
00:20:07,440 --> 00:20:11,200

283

Scotland Franks either, weird. Scott Robinson

284

joins us in the chat and says, I love Wednesdays on the Matt Connerton

285
00:20:22,960 --> 00:20:26,119
on the show because I think he's
using voice to text, because I know

286
00:20:26,200 --> 00:20:30,400
we're going to get Eric Gagnan's entertainment
a report. Oh no, no,

287
00:20:30,519 --> 00:20:34,279
no, no, not on Wednesdays, EASYG. We'll do one at some

288
00:20:34,400 --> 00:20:37,799
point, but he's always got a
reason why he can't, So that's okay.

289
00:20:38,440 --> 00:20:41,160
Ronda Fervero joins us, of course, from the gray state of California

00:21:21,799 --> 00:21:25,759

hack Isaac Banks. From us to you,

299
00:21:26,000 --> 00:21:32,759
Jason, we hope you understand.
From us tomorrow people five, Okay,

300
00:21:33,759 --> 00:21:37,720
Crystal says, if you ever watch
Behind the Music and True Hollywood stories

301
00:21:37,759 --> 00:21:42,640
on famous people, there is a
lot of predatory and shady af managers who

302
00:21:42,759 --> 00:21:47,680
profit tremendously off their client's talents.
Oh yeah, it's a dirty business,

303
00:21:48,119 --> 00:21:51,240
no doubt about it. And before
you sign anything, you should you know,

304
00:21:51,400 --> 00:21:55,319
have an entertainment lawyer. Check it
out and make sure the entertainment lawyer

305
00:21:55,440 --> 00:21:59,079
is, you know, operating in
good faith on your side. They should

306
00:21:59,079 --> 00:22:02,359
be. You're hiring them. Yeah, it's a it's a shady business,

307
00:22:02,440 --> 00:22:04,920
no doubt about it. Tomorrow People
five, says Hi, Crystal, good

308
00:22:04,960 --> 00:22:11,759
afternoon. We said from us to
you. We say you add Fox and

309
00:22:11,880 --> 00:22:15,480
the Flamingos on your show yesterday,
hashtag Matt from us. Yes, I

310
00:22:15,599 --> 00:22:18,759
did, on Smith calling me heavy
metal Matt. Yes, that's me.

311
00:22:18,920 --> 00:22:22,079
That's a good name. Miriam Bannis
joins us in the chat and says,

312
00:22:22,119 --> 00:22:25,880
Hi, there, I keep thinking
it's Thursday. Ugh, I hate that.

313
00:22:26,599 --> 00:22:29,640
Oh no, no, we're only
halfway through, halfway through the week.

314
00:22:32,079 --> 00:22:37,880
Let's see tomorrow People five says Hi. Fox and the Flamingos. We

315
00:22:37,960 --> 00:22:41,720
are Tomorrow People five, a pop
singing group, and we are from Greensboro,

316
00:22:41,799 --> 00:22:45,440
North Carolina. Matt, we heard
you said from us, Yes,

317
00:22:49,240 --> 00:22:53,359
Crystal says in the chat room.
B two K has members getting PTSD and

318
00:22:53,440 --> 00:22:59,039
having public meltdowns from what they went
through and are calling it out. Sadly,

319
00:22:59,160 --> 00:23:03,559
fellow band members have been discrediting what's
being said. I think that further

320
00:23:03,680 --> 00:23:08,119
adds to the trauma being called a
liar. Oh, no doubt, no

321
00:23:08,319 --> 00:23:18,200
doubt tomorrow people five says hashtag Matt, we do karaoke as well for Center

322
00:23:18,279 --> 00:23:25,440
City Park, downtown Greensboro, North
Carolina. Yes, Will Vegas joins us

323
00:23:25,480 --> 00:23:29,240
in the Facebook live chat from of
course, Will's autocare great place. I

324
00:23:29,759 --> 00:23:33,119
suggest you take your car there for
your automotive needs. Will says hashtag we

325
00:23:33,279 --> 00:23:37,960
say all lou Pearlman's boy bands played
the flute. I see what you did

326
00:23:38,039 --> 00:23:42,880
there, Will, And Oh,
I think this is Charles calling us back.

327
00:23:42,920 --> 00:23:48,559
Hey Charles, Hey, I know
it's not very customary or professional to

328
00:23:48,680 --> 00:23:53,039
college show twice in the same day, but we gotta take a pull.

329
00:23:53,880 --> 00:23:59,960
I mean no, well not we, I think more you. We gotta

330
00:24:00,160 --> 00:24:03,519
find out if there's actually anybody that's
not in a boy band in Greensboro,

331
00:24:03,640 --> 00:24:08,759
North Carolina, Like, is there
actual residents there? Maybe people that work

332
00:24:08,839 --> 00:24:15,200
at Walmart or maybe you know,
work at Circle K or seven eleven.

333
00:24:15,319 --> 00:24:19,440
I mean, is there any regular
people in Greensboro or they all like linked

334
00:24:19,480 --> 00:24:25,920
the boy bands and they all happen
to find your show it. You could

335
00:24:25,920 --> 00:24:29,680
probably get a grant for to do
some research on it. It does seem

336
00:24:29,720 --> 00:24:33,640
as though there are a lot of
boy bands in Greensboro, North Carolina,

337
00:24:33,720 --> 00:24:38,559
and they all do karaoke in downtown
Greensboro. It's very interesting. I know.

338
00:24:40,039 --> 00:24:44,400
I'm thinking, there's like there's got
to be something going on there that

339
00:24:44,799 --> 00:24:48,519
like, we gotta get the mayor
of Greensboro on the phone. What is

340
00:24:48,599 --> 00:24:53,759
going on? Are you getting overrun
with teen teen bands over there? Is

341
00:24:53,799 --> 00:24:59,880
there any regular people that live in
your area? I mean, even seen

342
00:25:00,119 --> 00:25:07,240
your citizens? Please anybody just I
mean, all we're getting is boy bands

343
00:25:07,319 --> 00:25:11,039
here. I'm really I'm really scared
next time I come up there. If

344
00:25:11,039 --> 00:25:12,839
I go through a road trip,
I go through Greensboro, I'm thinking,

345
00:25:14,279 --> 00:25:15,400
I'm gonna I'm gonna, you know, if I stop at a road lights,

346
00:25:15,519 --> 00:25:18,480
gonna want to listen. Have me
listen to their song with hashtags on

347
00:25:18,599 --> 00:25:22,200
it? That's right. I don't
I don't know if I can handle that.

348
00:25:22,480 --> 00:25:26,920
I would go around Greensboro. Will
Vegas says. Will Vegas says Greensboro

349
00:25:27,039 --> 00:25:30,599
is the new hotbed for the boy
band movement. I had no idea hashtag

350
00:25:30,759 --> 00:25:37,680
that if I get yeah hashtag hashtag
the hashtag, I say to you,

351
00:25:37,359 --> 00:25:44,119
yes, yeah, Well, I
say to you, Matt, there's there's

352
00:25:44,200 --> 00:25:52,000
something going on in Greensboro hashtag boy
bands something in the water. It's yeah,

353
00:25:52,480 --> 00:25:59,240
definitely all right, Charles. Nice
for the call, very nice.

354
00:25:59,319 --> 00:26:04,759
That was our friends. Tomorrow People
five says hello hashtag Charles Richardson, Good

355
00:26:04,759 --> 00:26:10,200
afternoon from Greensboro, North Carolina.
And we say do karaoke as we can.

356
00:26:10,599 --> 00:26:17,960
Hello Hello hashtag Greensboro mayor. We
say that we do karaoke. Well,

357
00:26:18,000 --> 00:26:21,680
maybe you know, Jenny schedules a
guess. Maybe Jenny can reach out

358
00:26:21,759 --> 00:26:23,960
to the mayor of Greensboro, North
Carolina and see if they would like to

359
00:26:25,119 --> 00:26:27,519
join us on the show. Miriam
Bannish says, I have a cousin in

360
00:26:27,599 --> 00:26:30,480
Greensboro. Miriam, have your if
you don't mind, could you have your

361
00:26:30,559 --> 00:26:33,319
cousin look into this, or maybe
your cousin isn't a boy band. I

362
00:26:33,400 --> 00:26:40,799
don't know. Crystal says Charles stops
at a red light in Greensboro and ends

363
00:26:40,880 --> 00:26:42,799
up in a boy band. Well, you know, that's probably what happens.

364
00:26:44,640 --> 00:26:47,440
That's probably what happens. I would
just go I would just go around

365
00:26:47,480 --> 00:26:52,599
there. Will Vegas says hashtag Bye
Bye Bye Greensboro. I like that song

366
00:26:52,799 --> 00:26:56,880
and I'm I'm not ashamed to admit
it. Bye bye bye bye in sync.

367
00:26:56,000 --> 00:27:00,559
That is very catchy, very catchy. Probably the only sing song I

368
00:27:00,720 --> 00:27:03,440
liked, But that is very catchy. I like that song. That's my

369
00:27:03,599 --> 00:27:06,279
jam. I think the young people
say that, right, they say that's

370
00:27:06,319 --> 00:27:11,240
my jam. Six O three two
five zero six zero seven is a studio

371
00:27:11,279 --> 00:27:15,400
line if you'd like to join us
six zero three two five six zero seven.

372
00:27:17,319 --> 00:27:18,799
Don't put it off, though,
because we do have a great musical

373
00:27:18,839 --> 00:27:21,960
guest stock coming up in just a
little bit. In the second hour,

374
00:27:22,279 --> 00:27:26,960
Hands of Spite will be with us
live in studio. Miriam says, my

375
00:27:27,079 --> 00:27:30,200
cousin would be in a girl whoops, let me back up there. My

376
00:27:30,279 --> 00:27:33,359
cousin would be in a girl band. But I expect she isn't. Well

377
00:27:33,400 --> 00:27:36,640
you should I, you know,
for all you know, she could be

378
00:27:36,759 --> 00:27:41,880
and you just don't know it yet. You know. We have a call.

379
00:27:41,759 --> 00:27:45,559
See who's on the line here?
Hi, Welcome to Matt Connerton unleashed.

380
00:27:45,559 --> 00:27:48,759
Who's this? Hey Matt? How
are you doing buddy? Oh it's

381
00:27:48,799 --> 00:27:53,079
Polly c. How are you?
I'm doing well? I'm just calling to

382
00:27:53,160 --> 00:28:00,839
give the show, our show a
quick plug. Yes, yes, this

383
00:28:00,000 --> 00:28:06,839
Friday night, you and I and
J Steve will be paying tribute to the

384
00:28:07,119 --> 00:28:11,039
wonderful Doctor Demento. Yeah, I
look forward to that. That'll be fun.

385
00:28:11,119 --> 00:28:15,039
I remember when I was a kid
listening to Doctor Demento his syndicated show.

386
00:28:15,160 --> 00:28:18,720
One of the I don't remember which
one, maybe you know one of

387
00:28:18,720 --> 00:28:22,640
the Boston radio stations carried it.
Yeah, I was on w c o

388
00:28:22,839 --> 00:28:27,240
Z kick Ass of Rock and Roll. Ah, yes, yeah, that'll

389
00:28:27,240 --> 00:28:33,799
be fun. And for the millennials
out there, that was ninety four and

390
00:28:33,880 --> 00:28:38,720
a half FM back then and eventually
turned into I think w zo U was

391
00:28:38,759 --> 00:28:45,960
a zoo uh like of a mid
eighty YEP and today it is w JMN

392
00:28:45,440 --> 00:28:49,720
jam in ninety four five and what
are they doing there? Are they doing

393
00:28:49,799 --> 00:28:56,160
pop or hip hop? Urban pop? Yeah? Yeah, back of the

394
00:28:56,279 --> 00:29:00,200
day was ill. I mean,
I want to call it classic rock,

395
00:29:00,279 --> 00:29:03,720
but it wasn't classic rock back of
the day. It was all the current

396
00:29:03,759 --> 00:29:07,359
stuff. But they played currently what
we now consider classic rock, you know,

397
00:29:07,519 --> 00:29:14,559
Joe Walsh and Nazareth and just a
great hard rock station. And that's

398
00:29:14,559 --> 00:29:19,519
all they played, you know,
versus their competitors, uh like bcn BCN

399
00:29:21,039 --> 00:29:25,279
did include their you know, the
hard rock in their in their format,

400
00:29:25,400 --> 00:29:30,000
but they also played a lot of
new age and alternative type of rock and

401
00:29:30,240 --> 00:29:33,359
new wave I should say type of
rock back in the day. Yeah,

402
00:29:34,440 --> 00:29:38,319
but CZ kept it all hard rock
and they had the Doctor Demento Show and

403
00:29:38,440 --> 00:29:44,640
Friday Night, well, we're gonna
be playing a bunch of classic tunes that

404
00:29:44,839 --> 00:29:49,720
he would feature on his show,
including songs from the fifties through the nineties.

405
00:29:51,319 --> 00:29:53,559
And I gotta tell the three years
that I've been doing it out radio

406
00:29:53,640 --> 00:29:59,119
station, I'm having the most fun
this week building the show, just hearing

407
00:29:59,160 --> 00:30:03,880
these songs and last days a Demento
awesome. So it'll be a great night

408
00:30:03,960 --> 00:30:10,559
on Friday night on retro Spectral.
He's not still on, is he Doctor

409
00:30:10,599 --> 00:30:12,319
Demento? He must he must be
long. Is he even still alive?

410
00:30:14,200 --> 00:30:17,960
I don't know. I'm gonna read
up on him tomorrow night like I normally

411
00:30:18,000 --> 00:30:22,039
do on my Thursday's doing my history
lesson with the stuff that we play.

412
00:30:22,200 --> 00:30:26,440
But yeah, from what I gathered
last night on the brief portions that I

413
00:30:26,559 --> 00:30:30,480
read, he's eighty two years old
now, and I didn't read of anything

414
00:30:30,599 --> 00:30:33,839
of whether or not he's still syndicated. But I will find that out and

415
00:30:33,960 --> 00:30:37,079
we will share that with the world
on Friday night at a pm Eastern.

416
00:30:37,799 --> 00:30:41,200
Well, very good. I look
forward to that as always. All right,

417
00:30:41,279 --> 00:30:45,279
my brother, carry on with your
fabulous show, big fan. All

418
00:30:45,359 --> 00:30:48,279
right, Paul, thanks for the
call. I'll see you Friday. All

419
00:30:48,400 --> 00:30:52,960
right, very nice. That was
policy from retros Spectrum Radio with Police every

420
00:30:53,000 --> 00:30:56,759
Friday night from eight to eleven pm
here on wm H ninety five point three

421
00:30:56,839 --> 00:31:00,680
FM. And I do have the
honor and privilege of one of Paul's co

422
00:31:00,759 --> 00:31:03,000
hosts on that show along with DJ
Steve, and so I always look forward

423
00:31:03,000 --> 00:31:06,720
to. Fridays are my favorite day
here at w M ANDH because I get

424
00:31:06,759 --> 00:31:10,799
to I get to basically spend the
day here. So well, if if

425
00:31:10,839 --> 00:31:14,279
you actually I get here at about
three thirty in the afternoon, so I

426
00:31:14,279 --> 00:31:15,680
don't know if that's really spending the
day, but you know what I mean,

427
00:31:15,799 --> 00:31:18,119
it's my long day here. So
there you go. If you'd like

428
00:31:18,200 --> 00:31:21,519
to get in with a quick call, probably have time for one more call

429
00:31:21,599 --> 00:31:23,319
before we get to the top of
the hour. Six O three two five

430
00:31:23,359 --> 00:31:29,319
O six Z seven. The studio
line is open six three two five six

431
00:31:29,559 --> 00:31:37,200
O seven. We should talk about
just quickly. Well, there's a debate.

432
00:31:37,240 --> 00:31:42,440
Tonight, there's another Republican vice presidential
debate. I call it a vice

433
00:31:42,519 --> 00:31:45,559
presidential debate because obviously none of these
people are going to be the nominee.

434
00:31:45,759 --> 00:31:49,079
That's tonight at the Reagan Library.
Trump won't be there, which isn't surprising

435
00:31:49,160 --> 00:31:52,759
for two reasons. One is,
I don't think he's going to do any

436
00:31:52,799 --> 00:31:55,039
of these debates. I mean,
he's going to be the nominee, so

437
00:31:55,160 --> 00:31:56,759
what's in it for him? But
also he's got a long running feud with

438
00:31:56,880 --> 00:32:02,200
the Reagan Library. In twenty sixteen, he refused to do the Reagan Library

439
00:32:02,240 --> 00:32:07,880
debate as well. But the thing
that caught my eye today that I thought

440
00:32:07,960 --> 00:32:09,839
was really interesting. So we've been
talking a lot on the show recently about

441
00:32:09,880 --> 00:32:19,400
New Jersey Senator Bob Menendez and his
legal problems. This is from Nbcnews dot

442
00:32:19,480 --> 00:32:22,119
Com. See, you gotta watch
what these people do and how they vote,

443
00:32:22,119 --> 00:32:29,200
because there's always a reason. Menendez
single handedly blocked a bipartisan effort to

444
00:32:29,319 --> 00:32:36,200
strengthen the law regulating foreign influence in
Washington. The new Jersey senator charged last

445
00:32:36,240 --> 00:32:42,759
week with accepting bribes, halted a
twenty twenty proposal fueled by widespread concerns that

446
00:32:43,000 --> 00:32:51,000
foreign influence campaigns had successfully infiltrated American
politics. And by the way, so

447
00:32:51,200 --> 00:32:57,240
this is about FARAH. The Foreign
Agents Disclosure and Registration Enhancement Act, which

448
00:32:57,319 --> 00:33:04,720
basically says, if you are working
in any way representing a foreign country or

449
00:33:04,960 --> 00:33:08,039
a business foreign business, uh,
you have to register with our government.

450
00:33:08,119 --> 00:33:13,079
Just so yeah, there's nothing illegal
about that necessarily, but just so everyone

451
00:33:13,200 --> 00:33:15,640
knows what you're doing, what you're
you know, who you're associating with.

452
00:33:16,200 --> 00:33:21,240
It is very loosely enforced, but
it is important. And the last time

453
00:33:21,279 --> 00:33:27,680
I talked about this on the show
was Farah specifically was regarding Hunter Biden,

454
00:33:28,160 --> 00:33:31,079
because I kind of have felt I
don't want to get sidetracked. But just

455
00:33:31,200 --> 00:33:37,119
briefly, that's that's actually been my
biggest concern with Hunter Biden. Why did

456
00:33:37,160 --> 00:33:43,519
he ignore FARAH, which he should
have registered with. But apparently a lot

457
00:33:43,599 --> 00:33:47,920
of lobbyists and so forth they don't
register with FARAH even though they're legally required

458
00:33:47,960 --> 00:33:52,119
to, and they get away with
it more often than not because it's very

459
00:33:52,480 --> 00:33:58,680
loosely and laxly enforced. In fact, that was one of the excuses some

460
00:33:58,839 --> 00:34:04,799
apologists for retired General Mike Flynn used
in defense of Mike Flynn when he was

461
00:34:04,880 --> 00:34:07,240
on his way to prison. One
of the things was, you know,

462
00:34:07,359 --> 00:34:12,880
he violated farah, he did not
disclose to the United States government for an

463
00:34:13,920 --> 00:34:16,039
interest that he was representing. And
he got caught and he got charged.

464
00:34:17,760 --> 00:34:24,280
But this guy, Democratic senator from
New Jersey, Bob Menendez, well here,

465
00:34:24,360 --> 00:34:27,880
this will get us caught up.
I want to do this quickly.

466
00:34:28,039 --> 00:34:32,760
But again this is from NBC news
dot com. Senator Robert Menendez, charged

467
00:34:32,880 --> 00:34:37,760
last week with secretly aiding the Egyptian
government in exchange for bribes, single handedly

468
00:34:37,840 --> 00:34:45,440
blocked passage of bipartisan legislation in twenty
twenty that would have strengthened the law regulating

469
00:34:45,559 --> 00:34:50,679
for an influence and lobbying in Washington. Senate records show, and by the

470
00:34:50,719 --> 00:34:58,079
way, this was bipartisan Republican Senator
of Iowa Chuck Grassley. He was the

471
00:34:58,199 --> 00:35:02,360
sponsor of the legislation, but had
bipartisan support. Both Republicans and Democrats were

472
00:35:02,440 --> 00:35:08,119
behind this and in fact it was
expected to pass. But guess who made

473
00:35:08,239 --> 00:35:13,639
sure that it did not. Guess
who made sure that it didn't advance at

474
00:35:13,679 --> 00:35:20,760
all. Robert Menendez, a Senator
from New Jersey, who today the arrangement

475
00:35:20,880 --> 00:35:25,320
was today is now charged with taking
bribes on behalf of Egypt and so forth.

476
00:35:25,440 --> 00:35:31,519
It's a little more complicated than that, obviously, but so you know,

477
00:35:31,679 --> 00:35:36,320
obviously this is not a coincidence.
Oh and his reason, as I

478
00:35:36,440 --> 00:35:40,239
understand it, the reason he gave
for why he was going to uh,

479
00:35:40,480 --> 00:35:45,159
he didn't want this to go forward
as something about well, and I heard

480
00:35:45,159 --> 00:35:49,400
the audio. I heard the audio
today. I don't have it ready,

481
00:35:49,480 --> 00:35:53,239
but it was something about, well, I think I think this is important,

482
00:35:53,320 --> 00:36:00,800
and obviously I think that this law
needs to be strengthened and or widely

483
00:36:00,960 --> 00:36:04,880
enforced or more consistently enforced, however
he put it. But I'm just not

484
00:36:05,119 --> 00:36:07,599
sure that this particular bill is the
right way to do it. Again,

485
00:36:07,719 --> 00:36:14,440
keep in mind, this was bipartisan, this bill that Chuck Rasley had brought

486
00:36:14,519 --> 00:36:15,960
forth. But Menenda said, oh, I'm not sure that this is the

487
00:36:16,079 --> 00:36:17,840
right way to do it, and
I think we need to give this a

488
00:36:17,880 --> 00:36:22,119
little more thought. And this and
that just some mealy mouthed nonsense, which

489
00:36:22,159 --> 00:36:25,960
apparently surprised everyone at the time because
this seemed like a no brainer. This

490
00:36:27,039 --> 00:36:30,679
seemed like a slam dunk and listen. It's really hard to get people in

491
00:36:30,800 --> 00:36:36,840
power to actually hold themselves accountable to
begin with, right, you know,

492
00:36:37,320 --> 00:36:40,400
or put any restraints on themselves that
are beyond what already exists, which aren't

493
00:36:40,440 --> 00:36:45,719
much to begin with. Right.
So here was an opportunity to do something,

494
00:36:45,880 --> 00:36:51,280
and Menenda said, yeah, we
should do something, but I don't

495
00:36:51,280 --> 00:36:53,280
know if this is really the answer, So that let's us not do anything

496
00:36:53,480 --> 00:36:57,519
basically is what it amounted to,
right, And sure enough nothing was done.

497
00:36:57,840 --> 00:37:00,480
There was no follow up, There
was no amended bill that I know

498
00:37:00,639 --> 00:37:06,039
of. It was just Okay,
well, Bob doesn't want this to happen,

499
00:37:06,079 --> 00:37:07,440
so I guess it's not going to
happen. So it says here.

500
00:37:07,960 --> 00:37:14,400
The proposed Foreign Agents Disclosure and Registration
Enhancement Act grew out of widespread concerns that

501
00:37:14,519 --> 00:37:20,000
the current law regulating foreign lobbying had
seldom been enforced and that foreign influenced campaigns

502
00:37:20,039 --> 00:37:24,320
had successfully infiltrated American politics. Strengthening
the law had drawn support from Democrats and

503
00:37:24,559 --> 00:37:30,039
Republicans on key committees. In December
twenty twenty, after a Republican senator asked

504
00:37:30,159 --> 00:37:35,400
for unanimous consent to bring the bill
to the Senate, floor for a vote.

505
00:37:35,679 --> 00:37:40,079
Menendez stood and objected. The New
Jersey Democrat argued that while enforcement of

506
00:37:40,199 --> 00:37:45,760
foreign lobbying rules needed to be strengthened, more thought he needed to be done.

507
00:37:46,360 --> 00:37:51,840
Oh there's a typo here. He
thought more needed to be put into

508
00:37:51,920 --> 00:37:54,480
it, into exactly how to do
it. More thought needed to be put

509
00:37:54,519 --> 00:37:58,920
into it. Okay, here's exactly
what he said. This is what he

510
00:37:59,039 --> 00:38:04,840
said on the Senate floor. If
you have some boots by before I read

511
00:38:04,880 --> 00:38:07,800
this, put your boots on before
I read this, because it's going to

512
00:38:07,880 --> 00:38:10,760
get a little thick here. And
I don't do a botman Endez impressions,

513
00:38:10,800 --> 00:38:15,280
so I've rarely even heard his voice. Okay, but here's what he said.

514
00:38:15,920 --> 00:38:22,320
It seems shortsighted to provide additional enforcement
tools before we have figured out what

515
00:38:22,519 --> 00:38:27,440
that regime should look like. The
disturbing rise of foreign influenced campaigns that use

516
00:38:27,480 --> 00:38:32,119
a variety of measures to mask who
is the ultimate source or beneficiary should serve

517
00:38:32,199 --> 00:38:37,280
as an alarm bell for all of
us. So before this body passes any

518
00:38:37,400 --> 00:38:45,119
tweaks or new tools and adds to
the current patchwork of FAARA regulations and exemptions,

519
00:38:45,559 --> 00:38:49,199
I think we should take a step
back and take a comprehensive look,

520
00:38:49,519 --> 00:38:57,079
and we have not done that.
Unquote. Okay, well, somebody did

521
00:38:57,159 --> 00:39:02,960
something because there's was legislator with bipartisan
support. Two congressional aids told NBC News

522
00:39:04,000 --> 00:39:07,119
that it was clear that Menendez was
objecting for himself, not for another senator.

523
00:39:07,400 --> 00:39:10,719
They also said that the bill had
significant support from key Democrats, including

524
00:39:10,760 --> 00:39:15,280
Senator Mark Warner of Virginia, then
ranking Democrat on the Intelligence Committee, and

525
00:39:15,400 --> 00:39:22,079
Senator Diane Finestein of California, the
top Democrat on the Judiciary Committee. Menendez's

526
00:39:22,199 --> 00:39:25,280
office did not immediately respond to a
request for comment. Three years later,

527
00:39:25,559 --> 00:39:30,679
the Foreign Agents Registration Act, known
as FARAH, has not been updated.

528
00:39:30,880 --> 00:39:37,480
Senators at the time said it was
a huge missed opportunity. Republican Senator Chuck

529
00:39:37,559 --> 00:39:40,320
Grassley of Iowa, who had asked
for the unanimous consent, noted that the

530
00:39:40,400 --> 00:39:45,280
bill had drawn support from a bipartisan
group of senators and appeared surprised that Menendez

531
00:39:45,320 --> 00:39:49,519
had objective. Grassly said, quote, it took a lot of work to

532
00:39:49,559 --> 00:39:52,400
put together the bill that I asked
unanimous consent on, to work out the

533
00:39:52,440 --> 00:39:57,920
differences with several different approaches, and
I thought that we had taken everything into

534
00:39:57,920 --> 00:40:02,039
consideration, particularly bringing together people from
the Intelligence Committee and the Judiciary Committee.

535
00:40:02,119 --> 00:40:07,119
Unquote. The existing affera, which
was enacted in nineteen thirty eight and last

536
00:40:07,239 --> 00:40:13,480
updated in nineteen sixty six, requires
agents of foreign entities to register with the

537
00:40:13,599 --> 00:40:19,440
Justice Department and file detailed public disclosures
detailing their lobbying and influenced campaigns. Failure

538
00:40:19,519 --> 00:40:23,719
to register is a crime, but
prosecutions have been rare. According to a

539
00:40:23,840 --> 00:40:30,119
detailed analysis of the text by law
firm, the bill Menendez blocked would have

540
00:40:30,760 --> 00:40:35,440
We'll go through these very quickly.
I see musicians in the hallway. Here's

541
00:40:35,480 --> 00:40:38,199
what the bill would have done.
Increase the criminal penalties for willful violations and

542
00:40:38,239 --> 00:40:45,880
material misstatements to two hundred thousand dollars
from ten thousand dollars. Created a so

543
00:40:45,039 --> 00:40:47,920
that's a fine, I guess.
I created a new criminal offense for meeting

544
00:40:47,960 --> 00:40:52,400
with a member of Congress or staff
without disclosing that an individual is registered as

545
00:40:52,480 --> 00:40:58,000
a foreign agent. Required the Department
of Justice to develop a comprehensive strategy for

546
00:40:58,360 --> 00:41:00,119
I don't even know what a lot
of this means. We'll skip that.

547
00:41:01,199 --> 00:41:05,880
Let's get to the end of this. Yere Menendez and his wife pleaded not

548
00:41:06,000 --> 00:41:10,599
guilty in federal court in Manhattan today
to a three count indictment alleging they were

549
00:41:10,719 --> 00:41:15,519
part of a bribery scheme. Among
the allegations where that the senator accepted bribes

550
00:41:15,559 --> 00:41:21,599
from an Egyptian American businessman with ties
to the Egyptian government. The indictment says

551
00:41:21,719 --> 00:41:27,719
Menendez passed on sensitive US government information
to Egyptian officials. And by the way,

552
00:41:28,119 --> 00:41:31,000
Menendez is still not resigned, and
I don't think he will, Crystal

553
00:41:31,079 --> 00:41:37,119
said in the chat room, Menendez's
ethics got blinded by the gold bars he

554
00:41:37,280 --> 00:41:42,719
got from Egypt. Greed kicked in. Of all the countries to worry on

555
00:41:43,400 --> 00:41:46,800
about foreign influence, Egypt is not
even in the top ten shady and evil

556
00:41:46,880 --> 00:41:51,599
countries. Maybe Menendez thought his corruption
would fly under the radar. Yeah,

557
00:41:51,679 --> 00:41:53,239
you know what I think, Crystal, And you know, Egypt is at

558
00:41:53,320 --> 00:41:58,119
least on paper and ally of the
United States. But what I think happened

559
00:41:59,480 --> 00:42:02,880
is I think he got cocky after
twenty seventeen. Remember he was on trial

560
00:42:02,920 --> 00:42:06,800
in twenty seventeen. I don't remember
if his wife was as well. She

561
00:42:07,000 --> 00:42:09,840
is now their co defendants, and
he was not acquitted, but it was

562
00:42:09,880 --> 00:42:14,079
a hung jury. And then he
got re elected in twenty eighteen. No

563
00:42:14,280 --> 00:42:16,400
problem, he got re elected.
So I think he just thought, oh,

564
00:42:16,480 --> 00:42:19,320
look, I'm Teflon, I can
get away with this. I know

565
00:42:19,360 --> 00:42:22,320
how to work the system. I
can I can stand up and object to

566
00:42:22,519 --> 00:42:28,320
Senator Grassley's legislation, and uh,
no one will suspect I have an ulterior

567
00:42:28,400 --> 00:42:30,960
motive, you know. That's that's
part of what happens to these people they

568
00:42:31,480 --> 00:42:37,039
I think that's my theory anyway.
There as as they are are more and

569
00:42:37,119 --> 00:42:43,599
more successful over time in their criminality, they begin to believe that they're smarter

570
00:42:43,719 --> 00:42:46,719
than the system and that they're not
going to be held accountable ultimately, and

571
00:42:46,760 --> 00:42:51,159
then it catches up with them.
That's my theory. I've never been a

572
00:42:51,239 --> 00:42:54,920
wealthy and powerful person, so I
don't know, but that's my theory about

573
00:42:54,960 --> 00:42:58,960
what happens. All right, So
we are approaching the top of the hour.

574
00:42:59,000 --> 00:43:00,519
So here's where we're gonna do play. We're gonna play some tunes,

575
00:43:00,719 --> 00:43:04,760
or at least one song. Now
I've got ah. Well, it might

576
00:43:04,800 --> 00:43:07,039
be a couple, depends on how
long it takes these guys to get set

577
00:43:07,119 --> 00:43:09,840
up. But we've got Hands of
Spite coming in in the second hour.

578
00:43:10,039 --> 00:43:14,599
Numerodos. They're gonna play live for
us in studio, but we've also got

579
00:43:14,679 --> 00:43:16,760
some studio tracks from them. Love
their sound. Really looking forward to meeting

580
00:43:16,800 --> 00:43:22,880
these guys and hearing them play live. So let's let's play this one.

581
00:43:22,559 --> 00:43:24,719
We're gonna play some of their music, then we'll show some love to our

582
00:43:24,719 --> 00:43:30,360
amazing sponsors, and then we'll be
back live in studio with Hands of Spite.

583
00:43:30,719 --> 00:43:32,800
But this is a great song.
This is a dumb love song.

584
00:43:32,960 --> 00:44:10,920
Check this out multa music shop.

00:50:29,880 --> 00:50:34,440
song. Thank you appreciate that.

Right Island. Yeah, where are you

628
00:50:44,559 --> 00:50:47,719

Grew up within a half hour of Boston,

629
00:50:47,840 --> 00:50:51,639
so I got check it. I
consider us from from Boston. Yeah

630
00:50:51,719 --> 00:50:55,480
yeah yeah. Now how long has
that album been out? What's what's the

631
00:50:55,719 --> 00:50:59,639
full name of the album? Songs
Love Songs for the Dumb and Stupid.

632
00:50:59,679 --> 00:51:02,599
It's been since Austin's birthday. Yeah, yeah, so July end of July

633
00:51:04,000 --> 00:51:06,760
twenty five, so it's been out
for about like two months now. Oh

634
00:51:06,840 --> 00:51:08,880
so it's pretty new. That's great. Yeahs off the press. Also,

635
00:51:09,079 --> 00:51:12,480
before we go any further, I
just want to say shout out to able

636
00:51:12,519 --> 00:51:15,280
Blood for giving us a shout out
and getting us here, sous. Those

637
00:51:15,280 --> 00:51:20,639
guys are awesome. Oh yeah,
they're great. Yeah, absolutely, it's

638
00:51:20,679 --> 00:51:23,000
funny. So I'm curious about the
name because when I hear the name Hands

639
00:51:23,000 --> 00:51:25,760
of Spite, when when Jenny first
you know, Jenny does all the book

640
00:51:25,760 --> 00:51:29,599
in him when she first had Hands
of Spite, I was thinking metal,

641
00:51:30,119 --> 00:51:32,239
which you're you're clearly not a metal
band, but the name is is you

642
00:51:32,320 --> 00:51:36,719
know, it must be the word
spite, right if it if it if

643
00:51:36,760 --> 00:51:39,760
it was hands of Love or something, or hands and cauliflowers kind of band,

644
00:51:39,920 --> 00:51:44,239
right, Yeah, hands and Spite
makes it edgier, it does it

645
00:51:44,360 --> 00:51:45,800
does? Yeah, where does the
name come from? Who came up with

646
00:51:45,840 --> 00:51:50,159
the name? Well, uh,
one of my favorite bands is Ceremony and

647
00:51:50,199 --> 00:51:52,000
they have a song called My Hands
Are Made of Spite, And I was

648
00:51:52,039 --> 00:51:54,880
like, that's a great band name. Yeah, yeah, snagged. I

649
00:51:55,000 --> 00:51:59,840
think genre wise, you know,
we get heavier and we're not you know,

650
00:52:00,000 --> 00:52:01,519
we're not a metal band, but
yeah, you know we can get

651
00:52:01,559 --> 00:52:05,199
down. I would imagine live,
you're probably just because a lot of bands,

652
00:52:05,239 --> 00:52:07,440
you know, live, you're probably
heavier than Yeah, we definitely pretty

653
00:52:07,480 --> 00:52:12,079
hard, a little faster too,
I think. Really. Uh yeah,

654
00:52:12,400 --> 00:52:15,079
it's a good time. If you
are just joining us, We've got Hands

655

664
00:52:45,159 --> 00:52:50,880
to that hearing them live. And
let's do this. Uh, we haven't

665
00:52:50,920 --> 00:52:53,920
done the formalities yet. Let's start
at the news desk and sir, tell

666
00:52:54,000 --> 00:52:58,440
us tell us your name and exactly
what you do in the band. Oh

667
00:52:58,480 --> 00:53:00,679
well, my name is Zach and
I'm drummer of the band. All right,

668
00:53:01,079 --> 00:53:05,039
primarily what I do, but I
like to provide moral support as well.

669
00:53:05,119 --> 00:53:10,000
There you go. I try though, all right, and you sir,

670
00:53:10,360 --> 00:53:15,039
and I am Nate. I'm the
bass player, no moral support whatsoever.

671
00:53:15,199 --> 00:53:17,039
I'm a bass player too. We're
not good at more, we're not

672
00:53:17,079 --> 00:53:21,880
good at moral sut. No,
you're you're better than you think. You

673
00:53:21,960 --> 00:53:25,440
know clearly you're the moral support.
My name is Sam. I played guitar

674
00:53:25,519 --> 00:53:29,760
and sing and I am apparently the
moral support. Bear. There you go

675
00:53:29,920 --> 00:53:31,800
when it comes to Yeah, and
my name is Austin. I'm the other

676
00:53:31,920 --> 00:53:37,519
guitar player and singer. Okay,
what's your moral support level? Medium?

677
00:53:39,599 --> 00:53:45,480
I don't know. Has it always
been the four of you in this band?

678
00:53:45,159 --> 00:53:47,039
Well, let's start it out.
Is a three piece, so is

679
00:53:47,280 --> 00:53:52,000
me, Zach and Austin Okayeh,
Austin was playing bass. Yeah, and

680
00:53:52,079 --> 00:53:57,159
then Nick came in. And I
don't consider the band fully forming until Nick

681
00:53:57,239 --> 00:54:00,840
came in, so right, right? Had you always intended to add a

682
00:54:00,920 --> 00:54:05,239
fourth member before Nate came in?
Or yeah? I mean I think we

683
00:54:05,400 --> 00:54:07,400
just didn't sound as full. Yeah. Well, think when we were forming

684
00:54:07,440 --> 00:54:12,119
the band we needed a bass player
because Sam was playing guitar and we didn't

685
00:54:12,440 --> 00:54:15,440
there wasn't anything else. So Austin
played bass, but he primarily plays guitar,

686
00:54:15,920 --> 00:54:17,320
so once we had him in the
group, we were like, oh,

687
00:54:17,360 --> 00:54:21,719
let's switch him over to the just
a lead guitar and brought in an

688
00:54:21,760 --> 00:54:23,639
actual bass player to the mix.
And right, well, Austin's a good

689
00:54:23,639 --> 00:54:30,119
bass player. Let's great. And
I mean when I when I met Austin,

690
00:54:30,480 --> 00:54:36,559
he was playing solo guitar in his
in his project, and I just

691
00:54:36,719 --> 00:54:40,000
love his style and I think just
he brings a whole different depth to the

692
00:54:40,199 --> 00:54:45,320
to the project. It's amazing.
Now, do you have any recorded music

693
00:54:45,440 --> 00:54:47,599
of the band as a three piece
or is everything that you've put out in

694
00:54:47,840 --> 00:54:51,599
the four of you know, it
was only a three piece for a month

695
00:54:51,840 --> 00:54:54,960
months? Yeah, we did,
like like when yeah, before any music

696
00:54:55,079 --> 00:54:59,880
live? I got you, I
got you? And do you guys play

697
00:55:00,079 --> 00:55:01,280
a lot of are you playing a
lot of shows? We were? And

698
00:55:01,320 --> 00:55:06,440
then we're kind of taking a break
because we have a second record that we're

699
00:55:06,480 --> 00:55:07,960
just trying to find tune before we
go to the studios. Oh cool,

700
00:55:08,199 --> 00:55:12,320
Yeah, a full album or an
EP or it's a ninth song, Yeah,

701
00:55:12,559 --> 00:55:17,000
excellent, excellent, same same kind
of stuff or is it sound changing

702
00:55:17,199 --> 00:55:22,639
over time or I think I mean, I'll just open up the door to

703
00:55:22,719 --> 00:55:24,079
this one and have everyone else kind
of comment. But I feel like this

704
00:55:24,320 --> 00:55:30,360
is more of a it's a darker
record, it's it's not as dirty.

705
00:55:30,400 --> 00:55:32,280
I feel like it's a lot cleaner
in terms of our songwriting, because I

706
00:55:32,360 --> 00:55:36,280
feel like the first record was us
kind of finding our footing, and this

707
00:55:36,440 --> 00:55:38,880
is us kind of diving in a
little bit more flavor wise. Be like,

708
00:55:38,920 --> 00:55:42,760
oh, Austin's gonna put hispin on
it, Zach and Nate are going

709
00:55:42,840 --> 00:55:45,639
to put their spins on it,
and I just I'm like a rock.

710
00:55:45,760 --> 00:55:52,039
I don't change at all. It's
definitely become a much more collaborative process with

711
00:55:52,119 --> 00:55:53,960
this new stuff. Yeah, for
sure, excellent, excellent. Do you

712
00:55:54,000 --> 00:55:58,320
guys all write together? Yeah?
Now we do? Now we yah.

713
00:55:58,400 --> 00:56:02,039
Initially when the band started, we
kind of had like Sam would bring something

714
00:56:02,079 --> 00:56:05,599
to the table that was basically a
whole song and then we'd kind of jam

715
00:56:05,760 --> 00:56:08,760
on it and then turn it into
like our our style. But as we've

716
00:56:09,079 --> 00:56:14,280
progressed as a group, we're definitely
writing more together, being more collaborative,

717
00:56:14,360 --> 00:56:17,760
and just making like more cohesive projects. Yeah, a lot of the stuff

718
00:56:17,840 --> 00:56:21,960
like we're we're gonna be well,
we're working on now and that's going to

719
00:56:22,039 --> 00:56:24,880
be coming out soon. It's definitely
like we're all working on together in a

720
00:56:25,000 --> 00:56:28,280
room, the four of us,
and like you know, Zach's trying out

721
00:56:28,280 --> 00:56:30,679
a new like drumbeat to it,
changing things up, and we're kind of

722
00:56:30,719 --> 00:56:35,599
like giving each other feedback live in
the room and working songs out together.

723
00:56:35,880 --> 00:56:38,639
Yeah. So yeah, No,
it's really exciting new stuff. I think

724
00:56:39,039 --> 00:56:45,840
excellent, excellent, And where do
you record? Last rerecorded was Willie Mammoth

725
00:56:45,960 --> 00:56:50,920
with David Minahan and oh, yeah, that name came up recently. Oh,

726
00:56:51,000 --> 00:56:52,599
able Blood. I think records with
him? Right, really, I

727
00:56:52,719 --> 00:56:57,000
think so that name came up recently
on the show, Oh David Minahan.

728
00:56:57,280 --> 00:57:00,679
Yeah, excellent. I think it
was able Blood. Butter, I'm not

729
00:57:00,760 --> 00:57:01,800
sure. I might just be thinking
that because you mentioned them, and it

730
00:57:01,880 --> 00:57:05,360
might be somebody completely different, but
I feel like it was able Blood.

731
00:57:05,679 --> 00:57:07,880
I mean, I don't know.
We haven't talked about it, yeah,

732
00:57:07,199 --> 00:57:15,079
between us, but yeah, Yeah, I love David. He's Kouka video

733
00:57:15,760 --> 00:57:19,599
cool. Yes, really call him
pop pop. Yeah, he just knows

734
00:57:19,639 --> 00:57:22,480
what you do. Yeah, did
you now? The first is the first

735
00:57:22,519 --> 00:57:25,840
album? An album or an EP
I forget EP and then a record Okay,

736
00:57:27,199 --> 00:57:30,320
now the EP did you record Did
you record that there as well?

737
00:57:30,440 --> 00:57:34,360
That was all one big session.
Yeah, the EP and the album were

738
00:57:34,440 --> 00:57:37,079
from the same recording session, but
we split them up just to oh,

739
00:57:37,440 --> 00:57:40,559
like tease people, get people excited, yeah, and then drop the whole

740
00:57:40,559 --> 00:57:44,800
thing on it. We did about
sixteen songs and a handful of days.

741
00:57:45,039 --> 00:57:47,800
Oh okay, We're like, oh, these four or five or good,

742
00:57:47,840 --> 00:57:51,559
and maybe we'll have one carry over
and then kind of, you know,

743
00:57:51,679 --> 00:57:54,000
let it do its own thing.
That's an ambitious schedule. Was it hard

744
00:57:54,119 --> 00:57:58,280
doing it that way or were you
just know? We were not really,

745
00:57:58,360 --> 00:58:00,519
I mean, we practiced the way
we this is just kind of like we'll

746
00:58:00,559 --> 00:58:02,920
have a list of songs and you
kind of just hammer it over and over,

747
00:58:04,000 --> 00:58:06,360
so it kind of just gets like
ingrained in our heads. So it's

748
00:58:06,400 --> 00:58:07,960
just kind of like, we know, I know exactly what I'm supposed to

749
00:58:08,000 --> 00:58:10,280
do right now, let's just walk
in and do it. Yeah, that's

750
00:58:10,320 --> 00:58:14,760
definitely how I felt with that,
And I think because we hammered it all

751
00:58:14,800 --> 00:58:16,840
in, it was like we were
really lucky that we could get every song

752
00:58:16,920 --> 00:58:22,599
pretty much in the first three takes. Oh that's great. Yeah, yeah,

753
00:58:22,719 --> 00:58:25,000
later I mean my part drum tracks
were done in like three takes.

754
00:58:25,119 --> 00:58:30,920
Yeah. Yeah, basically one day. Yeah, which was a great day.

755
00:58:31,559 --> 00:58:34,480
No. But when when you're well
practiced and you know kind of what

756
00:58:34,559 --> 00:58:37,639
you're going into, you can definitely
be more efficient in the studio. Yeah,

757
00:58:38,920 --> 00:58:43,920
we have a question in the chat
room tomorrow People five says, hands

758
00:58:43,960 --> 00:58:49,199
of spite, what is your favorite
Three Doors Down song? Oh my god,

759
00:58:49,280 --> 00:58:52,800
what a question. Those guys that
do Kryptonite or no? No?

760
00:58:52,000 --> 00:58:55,519
Yeah, yeah, I think that
Superman whatever it took a walk around the

761
00:58:55,519 --> 00:59:00,760
world. I could quit their whole
discog. I feel like, oh,

762
00:59:00,800 --> 00:59:06,400
well, phase, they were in
the Early Sea. They you know,

763
00:59:06,920 --> 00:59:09,679
did what they did? Yeah they
did. They're not saying they did anything

764
00:59:10,119 --> 00:59:15,920
what they did it. I hate
that Kryptonite's song. It's it's a hit.

765
00:59:17,039 --> 00:59:20,800
I hated it the first time I
heard it, and I hated at

766
00:59:20,840 --> 00:59:27,239
the one millionth time that I heard
it. But but but but I hate

767
00:59:27,280 --> 00:59:30,440
it. I think they had one
or two other hits. But uh yeah,

768
00:59:30,519 --> 00:59:34,639
what what an interesting like? Oh
do you guys like three Doors Down?

769
00:59:34,880 --> 00:59:37,760
Like I don't. I guess yeah, they had other song. Tomorrow

770
00:59:37,800 --> 00:59:39,400
People five is one of our friends
in Greensboro North Carolina, and there's a

771
00:59:39,400 --> 00:59:44,119
lot of a lot of interesting questions
that come out of there. Oh yeah,

772
00:59:44,360 --> 00:59:45,840
and our friend Shannon is online.
Hi Shannon, do you have a

773
00:59:45,960 --> 00:59:51,679
question for the band? Yes,
we say, I'm from I'm visiting Greensboro

774
00:59:51,719 --> 00:59:57,400
at the moment. Now my question
is, uh, do you have you

775
00:59:57,480 --> 01:00:00,360

No, but we would would want to

776
01:00:00,400 --> 01:00:05,159

Easyg's question. No, we haven't played

777
01:00:05,199 --> 01:00:07,719
in Canada yet, but we definitely
love to. That would be amazing.

778
01:00:08,880 --> 01:00:13,239
Yeah. And the other question is
when you do have a show, do

779
01:00:13,440 --> 01:00:17,119
you put the playlist up so everybody
knows what's coming? No? No,

780
01:00:17,239 --> 01:00:21,079
no, we want it to be
a surprise. Sometimes it's a surprise to

781

us. All right, yeah,
okay, all right, Shannon, thank

our friend Shannon. That does open up

786
01:00:39,280 --> 01:00:42,280
the line for you if you have
any questions for the band. We've got

787
01:00:42,320 --> 01:00:45,800

zero three two five zero six zero seven

788
01:00:45,079 --> 01:00:50,800
six three two five zero six oh
seven. Did you guys have any videos

789
01:00:50,880 --> 01:00:53,000
online of uh you, have you
made any videos yet? It seems like

790
01:00:53,000 --> 01:00:57,000
everybody's making videos, he says,
yeah, no music videos. You have

791
01:00:57,079 --> 01:01:00,079
like a couple of like live clips, like roughly recorded that are up on

792
01:01:00,280 --> 01:01:04,559
YouTube. Definitely gives you a good
sense of what it's like live. But

793
01:01:04,719 --> 01:01:07,079
yeah, we haven't done any like
high production value. We don't have that

794
01:01:07,159 --> 01:01:10,559
kind of money. Man. Yeah, well these days you can do it

795
01:01:10,639 --> 01:01:16,039
pretty cheap. It's it's pretty remarkable. We definitely have some ideas for videos.

796
01:01:16,239 --> 01:01:20,519
Yeah, but I haven't really bit
the bullet yet. Zach Zack and

797
01:01:21,199 --> 01:01:24,760

804
01:01:50,159 --> 01:01:52,199
from the Great State of vermontos US
in the Facebook live Chat, Hello Melanie.

805
01:01:53,360 --> 01:01:58,559
Now, so when you guys play, because obviously being based in and

806
01:01:58,679 --> 01:02:00,079
around Boston, I mean, it's
such a great scene. There are are

807
01:02:00,119 --> 01:02:04,159
there any bands in the area that
you kind of usually I mean I just

808
01:02:04,239 --> 01:02:06,760
know from my own experience too,
it usually kind of happens organically. But

809
01:02:06,920 --> 01:02:08,760
are there any bands that you kind
of team up with unofficially that you play

810
01:02:08,760 --> 01:02:12,800
a lot of shows with so funny
enough able blood. You know, they're

811
01:02:12,800 --> 01:02:15,519
in a New Hampshire band, but
we I mean we love all those guys,

812
01:02:15,719 --> 01:02:21,000
yeah, just as people and their
music. Their new album is amazing.

813
01:02:21,079 --> 01:02:23,519
I have not stopped listening to it
since I was very lucky to get

814
01:02:23,599 --> 01:02:30,199
an early release, so uh them. There's a band called Lobo Own Raise

815
01:02:30,239 --> 01:02:31,880
that we really love. They're like, they're just kind of a bad religion,

816
01:02:32,119 --> 01:02:37,320
kind of straightforward old school like punk
in your you know, they bring

817
01:02:37,400 --> 01:02:39,559
the heat. Yeah, there's so
many great bands that we've played with locally

818
01:02:39,639 --> 01:02:43,280
though. Yeah. Yeah, I
feel like sometimes it's unexpected to we just

819
01:02:43,320 --> 01:02:45,639
show up to a gig and I'm
like, I remember those guys from like,

820
01:02:45,159 --> 01:02:47,760
you know, like a few months
ago or something. That's always like

821
01:02:47,920 --> 01:02:52,400
a great surprise. I guess to
see the same band you love last time

822
01:02:52,440 --> 01:02:54,519
you played and they're they're still out
there cranking away. Yeah, or they're

823
01:02:54,559 --> 01:02:57,840
better than they were before, like
you you were like, oh I loved

824
01:02:57,880 --> 01:03:00,559
you guys and it was an off
night and now you guys are really stepping

825
01:03:00,599 --> 01:03:05,039
your game up. And oh yeah, yeah, no doubt. Where have

826
01:03:05,119 --> 01:03:07,360
you guys gotten out of the area
of much as as far as live shows?

827
01:03:07,480 --> 01:03:10,159
Yeah, we just toured in August. Oh where'd you go? Yes,

828
01:03:10,239 --> 01:03:13,599
we did a run of shows.
Where did we start? Philly was

829
01:03:13,639 --> 01:03:16,360
the first show, right, and
then uh, Cleveland and Madison, Wisconsin.

830
01:03:17,039 --> 01:03:21,320
So we got to hang out,
play with some play for some strangers

831
01:03:21,360 --> 01:03:23,280
and stuff. It was a good
time. It was a good time.

832
01:03:23,679 --> 01:03:29,119
I guess tech started in Rhode Island. Oh yeah, yeah, right Island.

833
01:03:29,519 --> 01:03:30,679
But we did. We did a
bunch of shows within like two or

834
01:03:30,719 --> 01:03:34,960
three weeks. Definitely covered a lot
of ground on the road. Yeah,

835
01:03:35,159 --> 01:03:37,599
yeah, it was fun. Where
was the Furthest? You went? Was

crustal bowl or something huge five super professional

838
01:03:46,320 --> 01:03:50,159
stage with the lights and everything.
It was sick. Yeah, it scared

839
01:03:50,239 --> 01:03:54,800
high production value upgrade from like an
Irish pub like time far yeahn of the

840
01:03:54,840 --> 01:03:59,920
other clubs we were playing at,
I'll never forget the basement we played where

841
01:04:00,679 --> 01:04:03,599
it was you you three were fine, but I was behind the water heater.

842

01:04:34,960 --> 01:04:38,320
No, No, if you include

Island, Boston, it's like,
I don't know, it's probably six.

851
01:04:41,639 --> 01:04:45,199
Yeah, probably closer to it.
I don't know. When are you letting

852
01:04:45,239 --> 01:04:47,239

01:04:48,639 --> 01:04:51,880
That was like five six shows?
Yeah overall? Thank Yeah, within three

854
01:04:51,920 --> 01:04:55,599
weeks, I think we did like
five or six shows. Okay, yeah,

855
01:04:55,840 --> 01:05:00,119
yeah. Did you while you're on
the road, did you did you

856
01:05:00,159 --> 01:05:02,920
do any kind of like a like
a vlog or anything like that of the

857
01:05:03,000 --> 01:05:08,079
tour or anything. We really should
have though, we basically were just like,

858
01:05:08,159 --> 01:05:10,679
let's hit the road. I think
we're all also pretty camera shy.

859
01:05:11,239 --> 01:05:15,480
Really yeah right, well you're on
camera right now, just say you no,

860
01:05:19,440 --> 01:05:24,960
So you know that's why I feel
so sweaty. Thing is over there,

861
01:05:26,280 --> 01:05:29,440
Melanie says in the chat room.
Wow, j FED must be super

862
01:05:29,519 --> 01:05:33,880
happy with desk man's beard. So
full and sty looking. I mean that's

863
01:05:33,920 --> 01:05:41,960
true. Is that? Has anyone
ever complimented you on your beard? You're

864
01:05:42,199 --> 01:05:45,760
yes, you're a full and sturdy
looking beard. No, not nearly enough.

865
01:05:45,119 --> 01:05:48,480
I mean call it iver heard anybody
call it sturdy, But that is

866
01:05:48,519 --> 01:05:57,440
a true statement. People usually choose
majestic, voluminous. Yes, but no,

867
01:05:57,679 --> 01:05:59,880
no, people definitely comment on it. It is on my face after

868
01:06:00,159 --> 01:06:01,000
that is a big beard. Yeah, a lot of people can't do it.

869
01:06:01,320 --> 01:06:04,239
The blessing in a curse. That's
true because most people when they grow

870
01:06:04,239 --> 01:06:08,320
their beards out, they get these
Yeah, they getting patchies. But but

871
01:06:08,440 --> 01:06:12,760
you've got this, it's like it
sort of grows down but also out and

872
01:06:12,920 --> 01:06:15,880
out. Yeah. Yeah, that
it goes everywhere. Man? Is that

873
01:06:16,280 --> 01:06:23,039
your Yeah? Does he have Jewish
there you go. Alright, well Jay

874
01:06:23,079 --> 01:06:27,039
fed loves your beard. Oh well, I appreciate that, Thank you very

875
01:06:27,119 --> 01:06:32,840
much. Melanie says it's sturdy af
it is, Melie, Well, very

876
01:06:32,880 --> 01:06:35,519
good, it's a yeah, it's
all the beard oil. Yeah, do

877
01:06:35,599 --> 01:06:38,639
you really do? See I've never
had a long beard, do you.

878
01:06:38,800 --> 01:06:41,599
Yeah, absolutely have to oil it. I've heard that. Yeah, what

879
01:06:41,679 --> 01:06:44,119
does that too? Does that keep
it from getting itchier? Well? Yeah,

880
01:06:44,159 --> 01:06:48,079
it keeps it from getting like skin
under the beard and then also relaxes

881
01:06:48,159 --> 01:06:51,719
the hair so it doesn't like actually
come out like a man. Yeah yeah,

882
01:06:51,840 --> 01:06:55,719
brush it down. Oh okay,
we need a sponsorship or something.

883
01:06:57,119 --> 01:07:01,800
Yeah, shout out Badger, bad
your products if you want to. I

884
01:07:01,840 --> 01:07:05,000
don't know. I don't know if
you're kidding. I'm not kidding it,

885
01:07:05,079 --> 01:07:08,679
but I think but I think you. I think you could get you could

886
01:07:08,719 --> 01:07:12,719
get a sponsorship from one of those
companies. Honestly, we need to go

887
01:07:12,800 --> 01:07:15,320
in corporate as soon as positive should. Actually, the whole, the whole

888
01:07:15,440 --> 01:07:20,599
music video should be sponsored by Badger. You want me to your products of

889
01:07:20,679 --> 01:07:24,559
any kind, you can let me
know and I'd be happy to yell at

890
01:07:25,079 --> 01:07:28,719

01:10:08,399 --> 01:10:10,359

925
01:10:10,399 --> 01:10:13,479
your love as a long time ago. Yeah, I don't listen to music.

926
01:10:13,880 --> 01:10:18,520
I don't know what's going on.
I don't blame you. Now,

927
01:10:18,600 --> 01:10:21,640
what do you guys have, So
any kind of an eta on the album,

928
01:10:21,760 --> 01:10:26,079
the new one that you're working on
or no, I mean I don't

929
01:10:26,479 --> 01:10:29,399
soon, not as of yet.
But yeah, we still got to record

930
01:10:29,439 --> 01:10:31,880
it. We got the songs like
they're very close. We got a massage,

931
01:10:31,960 --> 01:10:34,560
like the little details out in the
songs. Yeah, get in a

932
01:10:34,600 --> 01:10:36,600
studio. But after we get in
a studio, I don't think it'll take

933
01:10:36,840 --> 01:10:40,800
very long. No, I think
we're gonna bang it up pretty this winter.

934
01:10:40,880 --> 01:10:43,720
Maybe you're gonna do You're gonna be
maybe end of the year is probably

935
01:10:43,760 --> 01:10:45,199
a study. Yeah, so you're
gonna do it the same way. It

936
01:10:45,279 --> 01:10:48,239
sounds like going for a couple of
days, and yeah, I think pretty

937
01:10:48,279 --> 01:10:53,920
much. I think we're gonna try
to do it even quicker. It's nine

938
01:10:53,960 --> 01:10:57,880
songs, it's not sixteen. Yeah, and we got those sixteen songs down

939
01:10:58,399 --> 01:11:00,880
almost entirely in the first two days. Well, it was the first day

940
01:11:00,920 --> 01:11:04,319
mainly, and then we just had
it was like two or three left over.

941
01:11:04,600 --> 01:11:08,479
Yeah, which was insane. Yeah, so what that kind of pace?

942
01:11:08,800 --> 01:11:12,159
It will be just fine. Yeah
yeah, wow, very cool,

943
01:11:12,319 --> 01:11:15,560
very cool. And so are you

1062
01:27:15,760 --> 01:27:18,640
thank you very much. You should
keep an eye on our website handsaspipe

1063
01:27:18,640 --> 01:27:21,880
band dot com. Yes please,
yes, yes, and Jenny shared the

1064
01:27:23,199 --> 01:27:28,000
link in the chat room too.
Now who does the who does the website?

1065
01:27:28,039 --> 01:27:30,439
Do you all us Austin over here? Yeah, yeah, yeah,

1066
01:27:30,479 --> 01:27:33,239
it's good. I'm kind of a
website nerd, so I like the I

1067
01:27:33,359 --> 01:27:35,199
like the site. It's a good
site. Oh yeah, thank you.

1068
01:27:36,239 --> 01:27:39,319
Well, because I mean, I
meet a lot of musicians who have really

1069
01:27:39,359 --> 01:27:43,880
awful websites. Nice when I see
none of the right right, yeah,

1070
01:27:43,920 --> 01:27:45,520
oh yeah, I've seen some.
I've seen things that look like they were

1071
01:27:45,560 --> 01:27:49,279
built in two thousand and four.
It's it's unbelievable. So it's it's and

1072
01:27:49,359 --> 01:27:53,239
it's important, you know, to
have a good website. Sot that's really

1073
01:27:53,279 --> 01:27:57,239
good. That's really good. So
do you guys think you might do do

1074
01:27:57,399 --> 01:28:00,560
something? I mean, does this
playing these songs like Who's does it open

1075
01:28:00,640 --> 01:28:03,079
something up where maybe in the future
you might play out somewhere where you know,

1076
01:28:03,199 --> 01:28:05,479
maybe they want an acoustic act and
you say, oh, well,

1077
01:28:05,520 --> 01:28:08,920
you know we actually can do it
that way. I mean, it does

1078
01:28:09,000 --> 01:28:12,960
open up some option. Yeah.
I think they also kind of breathe.

1079
01:28:13,039 --> 01:28:15,399
It breathes a different life into the
tunes, which is really interesting. Yeah,

1080
01:28:15,439 --> 01:28:18,079
a whole different way to play them, listen to them, think about

1081
01:28:18,119 --> 01:28:21,560
them, which is a lot of
fun, right right. If you're just

1082
01:28:21,720 --> 01:28:26,039
joining us, we have Hands of
Spite live in studio with Essaysa's played a

1083
01:28:26,079 --> 01:28:29,560
couple of songs and it's just sound
absolutely amazing. If you have any questions

1084
01:28:29,640 --> 01:28:31,600
or anything at all for the band, the studio line is open six zero

1085
01:28:31,640 --> 01:28:35,960
three two five zero six zero seven
six zero three two five zero six zero

1086
01:28:36,199 --> 01:28:39,520
seven. By the way, so
why is the album I'm curious about the

1087
01:28:39,560 --> 01:28:45,000
album titles Love Songs for the Dumb
and Stupid? Who came up with that?

1088
01:28:45,359 --> 01:28:47,640
And and is there a story behind
that? I just thought it was

1089
01:28:47,680 --> 01:28:51,920
funny. Yeah, And there are
some love songs in there. There's a

1090
01:28:53,000 --> 01:28:58,479
couple of collectively pretty dumb and stupid. Yeah, and the album artwork is

1091
01:28:58,960 --> 01:29:02,159
Zach's idea because we we're talking about
like just things that make us happy,

1092
01:29:02,239 --> 01:29:08,520
and Zach goes hockey. I would
kill for some cigarettes and ice cream,

1093
01:29:08,560 --> 01:29:13,920
and I was like, hold hold
that, hold that cigarettes in ice cream?

1094
01:29:13,920 --> 01:29:17,439
Where cigarettes and ice cream? And
you know, I don't care as

1095
01:29:17,479 --> 01:29:20,880
long as they're cream. No,
I like it. It's a cool cover.

1096
01:29:21,319 --> 01:29:24,359
I should describe it for those of
course, you know, you can

1097
01:29:24,439 --> 01:29:27,199
go online and see it. But
yeah, it's a it's a dish of

1098
01:29:27,239 --> 01:29:30,439
ice cream with a bunch of cigarette
butts stuffed in it. And it's it's

1099
01:29:30,520 --> 01:29:32,640
very rock and roll, I gotta
say, really Elicits a response from people.

1100
01:29:32,720 --> 01:29:42,159
Yeah, people either hated or really
hated Delicious, but also looks yeah.

1101
01:29:42,199 --> 01:29:44,560
Are you're like, are those sprinkles? Are they? Is it ash?

1102
01:29:45,000 --> 01:29:56,800
Yeah? I don't know. It
still looks good and uh, you've

1103
01:29:56,840 --> 01:30:01,319
got also how do you how do
you say this in cohite? What does

1104
01:30:01,359 --> 01:30:04,279
that mean? I've seen that word
not not fully formed yet. So this

1105
01:30:04,520 --> 01:30:08,680
was oh okay. So this was
of course the EP that came out before.

1106
01:30:09,039 --> 01:30:11,840
Yeah, And I mean I think
ink wit was the It was an

1107
01:30:11,920 --> 01:30:15,479
appropo title because it's like, hey, we're just showing you the beginning of

1108
01:30:15,560 --> 01:30:21,439
it. Yeah, yeah, did
the did the sound change much like they're

1109
01:30:21,439 --> 01:30:25,840
probably not because you did them all
once, right, Those are like the

1110
01:30:26,399 --> 01:30:29,399
heavier songs on that from that session. It was like, oh, this

1111
01:30:29,439 --> 01:30:32,479
would be an interesting side thing on
its own. The record is its own

1112
01:30:32,600 --> 01:30:36,840
kind of vibe, you know.
Yeah, yeah, I think would think

1113
01:30:36,920 --> 01:30:42,760
the record that we put out is
more like a good cohesive collection of songs

1114
01:30:42,840 --> 01:30:46,439
that kind of represent our style.
Then like the EP is kind of like

1115
01:30:48,319 --> 01:30:53,560
just a little more raw and aggressive
and just the nature of the songs and

1116
01:30:53,720 --> 01:30:57,960
like we we are doing that,
but collectively, like as as a theme,

1117
01:30:58,319 --> 01:31:00,239
I think everything just worked better on
the songs for the album. And

1118
01:31:00,680 --> 01:31:03,359
we have a call. Hi,
Welcome to Matt Connerton Unleashed. Who's on

1119
01:31:03,399 --> 01:31:13,239

Jacqueline Montolango. Hey, what's updy friend

1120
01:31:13,279 --> 01:31:17,880

1122
01:31:21,840 --> 01:31:30,720
bunch of spite in the rest of
my body. Here we go yea yeah,

1123
01:31:30,800 --> 01:31:34,239

I'm currently at work, but just

1124
01:31:34,359 --> 01:31:38,279

Let's go. Hello's a nice call.

1128
01:31:55,680 --> 01:31:58,840
I'm concerned. I'm concerned about that
spite though it sounds like it's spreading.

1129
01:31:58,880 --> 01:32:02,079
She's got to work out a lot
of that's that's a common problem. She's

1130
01:32:02,119 --> 01:32:04,960
a tough lady. She's gonna live
through it. I mean, it's one

1131
01:32:05,000 --> 01:32:09,760
thing to have it in your hands, but to have it naturally occurring in

1132
01:32:09,800 --> 01:32:16,279
most people. You've ever been behind
the wheel and you're like ringing out the

1133
01:32:16,399 --> 01:32:24,159
neck of my my steering wheels right
right, Malcolm Sauls is in the I

1134
01:32:24,279 --> 01:32:28,119
love you, Malcolm, Malcolm says
big love for hands of spite. These

1135
01:32:28,159 --> 01:32:30,000
guys went from one of our favorite
bands to some of our favorite people.

1136
01:32:32,000 --> 01:32:35,800
Love you, Malcolm, thanks for
coming up my surprise birthday party. Oh

01:32:35,960 --> 01:32:40,359
I love you guys. Oh very

1138
01:32:40,439 --> 01:32:48,479
all Austin's fault. Was great yep, Malcolm says, love you guys.

1139
01:32:48,680 --> 01:32:51,479
Now, Malcolm sounds like someone with
no spite, and he's no, no,

1140
01:32:51,600 --> 01:32:57,000
no, Malcolm is seems he seems
very not He's not a person.

1141
01:32:57,159 --> 01:32:59,359
No, he no, he just
hides it. Well, he's yeah,

1142
01:32:59,479 --> 01:33:01,680
yeah, you get it. You
got that. It's just behind the eyes.

1143
01:33:03,000 --> 01:33:08,560
I'm the kind kind facade exactly.
And Vicky Opine is in Texas and

1144
01:33:08,720 --> 01:33:11,840
is wondering if you're gonna go on
tour and maybe go to Texas. If

1145
01:33:11,880 --> 01:33:14,880
you book us, we'll find we'll
get there. Yeah. Yeah, just

1146
01:33:14,920 --> 01:33:16,920
tell us when to play wearing Yeah, that's kind of our motto. You

1147
01:33:17,159 --> 01:33:20,119
you book us, will show up
right right. We're gonna put a thing

1148
01:33:20,159 --> 01:33:25,199
on our website that says minimum a
grand and we'll play anywhere, really anywhere.

1149
01:33:25,720 --> 01:33:30,600
I'll take a free dinner whatever.
Yeah, I'm just talking about usually

1150
01:33:30,640 --> 01:33:35,039
done free beer, and I'm in
That's a long way to go for free

1151
01:33:35,079 --> 01:33:40,239
beer. But yeah, well you
can get lone Star though, Oh,

1152
01:33:40,640 --> 01:33:45,520
lone Star and barbecue. I'm there. You do not know what I'm talking

1153
01:33:45,520 --> 01:33:50,199
about, Okay. Lone Star is
a type of local Texas cool makes sense

1154
01:33:50,359 --> 01:33:56,840
a right, Vicky said, it's
not my job. But I do get

1155
01:33:56,920 --> 01:34:02,800
it. But I guess given you
a thousand dollars. Yeah, yeah,

1156
01:34:03,640 --> 01:34:09,640
well maybe you can play anyway.
Maybe you can connect on Facebook and work

1157
01:34:09,680 --> 01:34:13,079
it out. Maybe hands By Band
we're easy to find. There you go,

1158
01:34:13,359 --> 01:34:15,159
there you go, it's party.
Yeah we should. We should make

1159
01:34:15,199 --> 01:34:19,279
sure people know too. Before we
were almost out of time. Where to

1160
01:34:19,359 --> 01:34:21,920
find you online? How to keep
up with everything that you're doing? Social

1161
01:34:21,960 --> 01:34:25,479
media, website, all of that. Yeah, it's just hands the Spy

1162
01:34:25,560 --> 01:34:29,279
Band pretty much everywhere, hands by
band dot com, Instagram, Facebook,

1163
01:34:29,439 --> 01:34:34,800
all the all the usual suspects.
I suppose on what Spotify and Apple Music

1164
01:34:35,479 --> 01:34:41,560
anywhere, everything that's right. We
have a TikTok check us out. Oh

1165
01:34:41,880 --> 01:34:45,640
yeah, yeah, it's there's a
picture of me punching coffee or a video

1166
01:34:45,680 --> 01:34:47,319
of me punch that's a good I
do like that one. We should be

1167
01:34:47,439 --> 01:34:51,880
more active, but that's worth following. Oh yeah, we post weird stuff.

1168
01:34:53,560 --> 01:34:58,000
Well yeah six yeah, well it's
mainly me having minor psychotic breakdowns and

1169
01:34:58,479 --> 01:35:00,640
Austin filming on his phone. So
an actor of you into our practice.

1170
01:35:00,800 --> 01:35:09,079
Yeah yeah, why are you punching
coffee? Uh uh? I was looking

1171
01:35:09,079 --> 01:35:11,159
at him? Funny, I think
yeah, it had a face on it

1172
01:35:11,239 --> 01:35:15,399
and it was throwing me out and
also SYNCD up with one of our songs.

1173
01:35:15,520 --> 01:35:17,800
Quite well, I see, all
right, we make art in this

1174
01:35:17,920 --> 01:35:20,760
household, and it makes sense that
you would punch it because you know,

1175
01:35:20,880 --> 01:35:28,199
hands of spite. Wow, that's
why. That's why you're the commander,

1176
01:35:28,439 --> 01:35:33,039
overlord. I'm the I'm the I'm
the commander to the Supreme Leader. Yes

1177
01:35:34,399 --> 01:35:41,600
or nothing at all? Yeah,
so, uh, great to great to

1178
01:35:41,640 --> 01:35:44,680
have you guys in. We should
probably I'm thinking we can end the show

1179
01:35:45,000 --> 01:35:49,800
with one more studio track if you
guys want to pick something. Yeah,

1180
01:35:49,800 --> 01:35:55,159
it just has to not have any
swears in it. Most most of your
