We have a very busy show for

9
00:01:14,680 --> 00:01:17,959
just a few minutes, my friend
Eric Pilcher. We'll be skyping in all

10
00:01:17,959 --> 00:01:22,959
the way from Cedar Rapids, Iowa
for our weekly segment with my favorite Conservative

11
00:01:23,000 --> 00:01:25,599
as we do every Wednesday. Coming
up in the second hour, we have

12
00:01:25,959 --> 00:01:29,799
our musical guests today, the band
Wired for Sound. We'll be joining us.

13
00:01:29,920 --> 00:01:53,719
And if that wasn't enough, we
have a surprise and rocks up.

14
00:01:57,959 --> 00:02:04,439
That's right, John hop with us
here. It's the surprise you. Oh

15
00:02:02,040 --> 00:02:07,039
oh, you have a new hat. Yes, people's action. What does

16
00:02:07,080 --> 00:02:12,319
that mean? This is an organization
that Jenny works with. She's been I

17
00:02:12,319 --> 00:02:15,039
don't know if you've been keeping up
on her adventures and activism. She's been

18
00:02:15,039 --> 00:02:21,039
going to uh the targeting politicians now, she's been going to Washington, d

19
00:02:21,159 --> 00:02:27,199
C. To speak on behalf of
getting healthcare for everyone in America Medicare for

20
00:02:27,280 --> 00:02:29,840
All and things like that. And
she's been doing great work. And this

21
00:02:29,919 --> 00:02:34,159
is a fantastic organization that she's involved
with. Oh, I've never heard of

22
00:02:34,199 --> 00:02:37,319
them before. And I wear the
hat proudly. People's Action. Yes,

23
00:02:37,719 --> 00:02:44,719
why is it skewed towards what would
be It's not just it's justified on the

24
00:02:44,800 --> 00:02:49,520
right, but not on the left. I don't know. So it's if

25
00:02:49,520 --> 00:02:53,960
you get rid of the PA and
it's just a box, says the Apples

26
00:02:53,000 --> 00:03:00,560
Action the Apples. That's something for
conspiracies to think about. Oh I see,

27
00:03:00,759 --> 00:03:04,560
oh, oh, just like that
woman who was next to the imaginary

28
00:03:04,599 --> 00:03:08,280
man on the plane. I mean, there was allegedly a human being there,

29
00:03:08,479 --> 00:03:14,719
but was he human or what Congress
is ready to call term a non

30
00:03:14,840 --> 00:03:19,280
human intellivigce h I would explain a
lot about Congress. By the way,

31
00:03:19,319 --> 00:03:21,840
the imaginary man would be a great
name for a band, wouldn't it,

32
00:03:22,159 --> 00:03:27,120
Yes, it would. Other great
names would come from the sayings of Charles

33
00:03:27,159 --> 00:03:31,000
Manson's disciples. But I'm sure you've
gone through all of those, obviously,

34
00:03:31,080 --> 00:03:35,319
the Devil's Business, stuff like that. And by the way, I notice

35
00:03:35,319 --> 00:03:38,159
you're wearing sunglasses. Did you put
those on because you heard the song Guts

36
00:03:38,240 --> 00:03:43,719
from Wired for Sound and you wanted
to look rock and roll? Actually these

37
00:03:43,759 --> 00:03:47,319
are air force glasses, but they
don't they use the term rock and roll

38
00:03:47,400 --> 00:03:52,840
and the Tom Cruise movies. But
he's a navel I think so. Yes,

39
00:03:53,360 --> 00:03:57,400
that's right here. You can see
my wit has been quite dulled.

40
00:03:57,800 --> 00:04:03,960
Some little squint man off from me
and came here that judas I oh,

41
00:04:04,039 --> 00:04:08,719
yes, our friend Eric Pilcher,
Yes, your friend Eric Pilcher. Well

42
00:04:08,719 --> 00:04:12,680
he'll be he'll be skyping in in
a moment. And you can Eric Pilcher,

43
00:04:13,039 --> 00:04:16,240
who wants somebody to stitch your hair
shirt for him, Perhaps you can,

44
00:04:16,560 --> 00:04:19,560
Perhaps you can rekindle it. By
the way, aren't you supposed to

45
00:04:19,600 --> 00:04:24,399
be on your television show right now
as we speak, Mary Heath is to

46
00:04:24,399 --> 00:04:30,279
be is interviewing a local political candidate. Ah, I figured, because as

47
00:04:30,360 --> 00:04:33,959
I told, there's only I actually
mentioned your name. There's only one human

48
00:04:33,959 --> 00:04:38,680
being that can out talk me in
all of New Hampshure, and that's Jim

49
00:04:38,720 --> 00:04:42,720
O'Connell. It's best that she interviews
the candidates. At least they get to

50
00:04:42,759 --> 00:04:46,879
say, right, that is true? That is true? Well, Eric

51
00:04:46,920 --> 00:04:50,439
will be joining us via Skype,
which means the studio line will be open

52
00:04:50,480 --> 00:04:57,199
if anyone wants to uh interject in
that manner, interact with that little squint

53
00:04:57,360 --> 00:05:00,839
Uh six O three two five six

You can also text me at six

57
00:05:12,920 --> 00:05:19,279
AI chat botti chat of course.
Of course I have to keep up with

58
00:05:19,319 --> 00:05:24,600
all this technology. Is she romancing
you? Oh my god? Oh no,

59
00:05:24,720 --> 00:05:28,360
it's not that kind of chatbot.
I Has Trump been arrested again?

60
00:05:29,720 --> 00:05:34,439
Uh no, not not yet,
but he has a target letter and I

61
00:05:34,480 --> 00:05:40,160
believe Eric Pilcher is on the line. Hello sir, Hello Matt, Hello

62
00:05:40,319 --> 00:05:44,639
John. How are you to Judas? Now? Why why would you say

63
00:05:44,680 --> 00:05:46,839
that? Must you betray me with
your role? How is he betrayed you?

64
00:05:47,480 --> 00:05:51,600
I wouldn't call him kisses with a
kiss off. Oh my, well,

65
00:05:51,600 --> 00:05:56,000
that's that's terrible. Eric, Do
you have a response for that?

66
00:05:56,120 --> 00:06:00,759
This is uh. I feel that
he has besmirched to you. As William

67
00:06:00,759 --> 00:06:03,160
Regal used to say, has anybody
taken up your offer to stitch you a

68
00:06:03,240 --> 00:06:09,519
hair shirt? No? No,
I still have no shirt, John,

69
00:06:09,560 --> 00:06:15,360
and I do not have my Eric
Pilcher ice cream bars. Yes. Well,

70
00:06:15,399 --> 00:06:19,680
and it's too bad because summertime would
be perfect for those. Yeah.

71
00:06:19,800 --> 00:06:28,199
Yeah, it's in Iowa. It's
very sad that this has not been done.

72
00:06:28,839 --> 00:06:31,839
Yes, if I know, I
know the fine people that work on

73
00:06:31,920 --> 00:06:36,959
Ward thirteen would get it done for
me. If I ask who is on

74
00:06:38,079 --> 00:06:44,399
Ward thirteen? That show doesn't exist
anymore. It's hard because the machinations of

75
00:06:44,680 --> 00:06:48,920
mister Covington hard too hard to keep
up because of me. Today's show it's

76
00:06:48,959 --> 00:06:54,480
called Meet the Candidates. Oh,
by the way, uh, by the

77
00:06:54,519 --> 00:06:58,319
way, um I did uh.
Now there's a certain individual and I'm not

78
00:06:58,360 --> 00:07:00,959
going to say who. But you
know, one of the things that Eric

79
00:07:00,000 --> 00:07:04,360
and I discuss on our Wednesday segment, of course, is media once in

80
00:07:04,360 --> 00:07:08,839
a while, but goings on in
media, and Eric, I know you

81
00:07:08,879 --> 00:07:12,879
probably have seen this, and John, you probably have not. There's a

82
00:07:12,879 --> 00:07:16,120
certain individual who shall remain nameless,
who I usually disagree with about pretty much

83
00:07:16,160 --> 00:07:20,680
everything, but he said something salient
that I thought, Wow, he really

84
00:07:21,000 --> 00:07:25,560
he really nailed it there. Eric, you'll you'll, you'll figure it out

85
00:07:25,560 --> 00:07:27,480
pretty quickly. And like I said, you might have seen this. So

86
00:07:27,519 --> 00:07:32,399
a certain individual who also comments on
media and the various goings on in mainstream

87
00:07:32,439 --> 00:07:38,600
media, was very upset with a
particular program called The View, which I

88
00:07:38,600 --> 00:07:43,439
believe airs on ABC, and he
made he made this stunning observation and I

89
00:07:43,480 --> 00:07:46,000
thought, you know, I never
really that hadn't occurred to me. He

90
00:07:46,120 --> 00:07:50,959
said, while complaining about The View, that centuries ago, a show like

91
00:07:51,040 --> 00:07:55,920
that would not exist. And I
heard him say that, and I said,

92
00:07:55,959 --> 00:08:01,040
you know, I think he's right. Yes, he think that until

93
00:08:01,439 --> 00:08:09,279
possibly nineteen thirty six with the advent
of mechanical television, but the first real

94
00:08:09,319 --> 00:08:16,399
broadcaster nineteen thirty nine, experimental broadcast
that you know, you you couldn't have

95
00:08:16,439 --> 00:08:20,480
a show to see. He was, he was right, what's three years

96
00:08:20,519 --> 00:08:22,040
ago. Let's say you, Eric, do you agree with that a centuries

97
00:08:22,040 --> 00:08:26,519
ago, a show like the view
simply couldn't exist, absolutely not. Yeah.

98
00:08:26,639 --> 00:08:31,919
Yeah, see then again it could
exist into the form didn't exist,

99
00:08:33,600 --> 00:08:35,519
I'll tell you even even a broken
clock, am I right? I mean,

100
00:08:37,120 --> 00:08:39,919
and again we won't mention who the
individual is I'm referring to. Said

101
00:08:39,960 --> 00:08:41,039
that, but I just thought,
wow, that's uh, you know,

102
00:08:41,159 --> 00:08:48,120
I can't argue with that. It
is said that those talk shows take the

103
00:08:48,200 --> 00:08:56,120
place of the village watering hole where
and I know this isn't a correct term

104
00:08:56,159 --> 00:09:03,200
to use, but I haven't fully
transitioned where women would gather in gossip about,

105
00:09:03,840 --> 00:09:09,720
you know, the goings on in
the village. Well yeah, if

106
00:09:09,720 --> 00:09:13,440
you want to use more modern parlance, you could simply say the water cooler.

107
00:09:13,440 --> 00:09:16,799
And that way you don't have to
be a gender specific either. You

108
00:09:16,799 --> 00:09:18,960
could say the women or men or
we were going back a couple of centuries

109
00:09:18,960 --> 00:09:22,399
and I didn't know you were transitioning. Congratulations, this is we're breaking all

110
00:09:22,480 --> 00:09:26,399
kinds of news today. There's lots
of surprises. Wow, that's amazing.

111
00:09:28,799 --> 00:09:31,799
Transition this Uh, well, I
shouldn't be able to use the word woman

112
00:09:31,960 --> 00:09:39,639
right uh into a man with a
man we can still use man because even

113
00:09:39,679 --> 00:09:43,919
in this woke world, everything the
masculine defaults, right, like, we

114
00:09:43,960 --> 00:09:48,039
can't say actress anymore, it's actor, right, The male wins out again.

115
00:09:48,279 --> 00:09:52,039
No, you can still say actress
because well you can't. It's an

116
00:09:52,279 --> 00:09:56,039
ah see, that's the thing.
That's the thing. Yes, I have

117
00:09:56,159 --> 00:10:03,039
transitioned her to a you could be
wearing American right right? Right? Oh,

118
00:10:03,159 --> 00:10:05,480
speaking of film, we should we
should mention we won't say, we

119
00:10:05,519 --> 00:10:09,120
won't say too much about it yet. We'll kind of offer a little lot

120
00:10:09,200 --> 00:10:13,480
teaser, Eric about this particular subject
because it is several months away, but

121
00:10:13,559 --> 00:10:16,519
I know you're excited about it,
so i'll let you you know what I'm

122
00:10:16,559 --> 00:10:18,480
referring to. Of course, i'll
let you go ahead and announced. So,

123
00:10:18,519 --> 00:10:20,360
like I said, we won't say
too much about it yet, but

124
00:10:20,399 --> 00:10:24,120
well, we'll kind of give people
a teaser. Go ahead, sir.

125
00:10:24,720 --> 00:10:30,240
Well. In honor of Halloween,
there is a film that I have been

126
00:10:30,279 --> 00:10:39,480
asked to review, and due to
certain theological reasons, I shied away from

127
00:10:39,480 --> 00:10:46,639
it. Uh, those theological reasons
no longer being a part of my life,

128
00:10:46,120 --> 00:10:52,120
I have decided I have decided to
go ahead and review the film.

129
00:10:52,279 --> 00:11:01,159
That film is William Friedkin's The Exorcist
Warrior what was the problem with it?

130
00:11:01,200 --> 00:11:07,960
You're not a Catholic, Eric,
No, I'm not. But there the

131
00:11:09,279 --> 00:11:13,559
church I was a part. I'll
disagreed with it that it was a movie

132
00:11:13,600 --> 00:11:18,360
and watching movies or wickedness himself,
I would imagine it's a little more nuanced

133
00:11:18,360 --> 00:11:22,000
than that, or because they're Protestants. The Catholic churches, you know,

134
00:11:22,279 --> 00:11:26,320
is anti Christ and you could you
were threatened to lose your soul by watching

135
00:11:26,320 --> 00:11:31,320
a movie with a Catholic priest.
Zero instantly, I agree with that,

136
00:11:31,480 --> 00:11:35,200
well you do. I'm curious to
your Eric's answer. However, I don't

137
00:11:35,200 --> 00:11:37,200
know how deep you want to get
into that, Eric, But you know,

138
00:11:37,440 --> 00:11:39,200
however far you want to go,
it's up to you. If people

139
00:11:39,320 --> 00:11:46,399
want to message me privately, oh
okay, Oh that's no fun that that's

140
00:11:46,879 --> 00:11:52,399
best left for my personal preference.
That's a private discussion, right, is

141
00:11:52,440 --> 00:11:56,879
it? Because William Friedkin's Jewish and
he shouldn't be doing about the Catholic Church.

142
00:11:58,679 --> 00:12:03,840
No, I'm just wondering what.
I just always found that a very

143
00:12:03,840 --> 00:12:07,360
funny film. When I thought I
was a whole muchularity. Really I started

144
00:12:07,399 --> 00:12:15,000
the driving with Gary Hammer and the
honorable Gary Hammer, and yep, it's

145
00:12:15,080 --> 00:12:20,840
funny. Wow, so thou vomiting? So for me? The Exorcist,

146
00:12:20,879 --> 00:12:24,200
I've only seen it once. It
is on a very short list of films

147
00:12:24,200 --> 00:12:28,879
that I think are absolutely amazing but
I never want to watch again. What's

148
00:12:28,919 --> 00:12:33,000
the other ones? Requiem for a
Dream as an example, that's a that's

149
00:12:33,039 --> 00:12:35,320
a I think an amazing film that
I don't ever want to sit through again.

150
00:12:35,399 --> 00:12:39,120
I just felt the climax. I
don't want to I don't want to

151
00:12:39,200 --> 00:12:43,279
know. I will never watch that
film again. Arm being cut off.

152
00:12:43,559 --> 00:12:46,799
Yeah, that's the sex party.
Too much for me, the guy throwing

153
00:12:46,879 --> 00:12:48,759
up into the child, too much
for me. We do have a we

154
00:12:48,840 --> 00:12:54,919
do. I'm sorry. Go ahead, Eric. But in partnership with Reviewing

155
00:12:54,919 --> 00:13:05,399
the Original Exorcist, October thirteenth,
the reboot slash sequel to The Exorcist is

156
00:13:05,440 --> 00:13:13,080
being released in theaters, and in
partnership with IPM Nation, myself and a

157
00:13:13,120 --> 00:13:18,600
couple others will be doing a live
podcast from Cedar Rapids Opening from a Cedar

158
00:13:18,679 --> 00:13:26,360
Rapids Theater. Opening nine is the
film and interview people seeing the film,

159
00:13:26,399 --> 00:13:31,600
and the hope is to get people
that have actually seen the original in theaters

160
00:13:31,639 --> 00:13:35,120
and get their thoughts on it.
Yeah, is there some reason the Cedar

161
00:13:35,240 --> 00:13:41,759
Rapids is having the premiere of all
well, I mean it's a worldwide premiere,

162
00:13:43,080 --> 00:13:46,840
yes, abuse in theaters October thirteenth, Yes, yes, well more

163
00:13:46,919 --> 00:13:50,159
we'll have more details about that as
it gets closer. But no, I'm

164
00:13:50,159 --> 00:13:54,159
excited about this. We do have
a call. We'll see who's on the

165
00:13:54,159 --> 00:13:58,360
line here. Hi, welcome to
Matt Connerton. Unleash who's this? It's

166
00:13:58,480 --> 00:14:01,240
Ridley And yeah, that's exactly what
got me. Was a show where like

167
00:14:01,279 --> 00:14:07,960
a movie where the guy's arm disappears
or whatnot. Blessed was just as Oh

168
00:14:07,039 --> 00:14:13,080
it was just so gross and I
just didn't I couldn't watch anymore. Yeah,

169
00:14:13,240 --> 00:14:16,519
then you miss missed the best part. Yes, yes, well,

170
00:14:16,600 --> 00:14:20,039
Dave, we're we're doing We're doing
a weekly segment with Eric. But if

171
00:14:20,039 --> 00:14:24,279
you can be terse uh, please
go ahead. We take bets on that.

172
00:14:24,399 --> 00:14:28,240
Well, I have I have an
update for you on America's descent into

173
00:14:28,279 --> 00:14:33,200
fascism and as it affects me amsure. But if I should call on a

174
00:14:33,240 --> 00:14:35,600
different day, then I can do
that. Oh, just give us a

175
00:14:35,600 --> 00:14:37,399
teaser, Yeah, give us a
teaser. I like that idea. Just

176
00:14:37,440 --> 00:14:43,440
a teaser well, yet another,
yet another relatively free and independent show is

177
00:14:43,519 --> 00:14:48,320
going off the air, not not
quite not completely off the air, but

178
00:14:48,399 --> 00:14:54,720
dramatically reducing. Oh I'm curious now
who Free Talk Live and team free Talk

179
00:14:54,799 --> 00:14:58,399
Live is ending. Wow, that's
the end of an era. Not quite

180
00:14:58,679 --> 00:15:03,440
ending, but they're they're they're getting
rid of most of their weekday programs and

181
00:15:03,559 --> 00:15:09,919
mostly just going on weekend. And
that's that's fascist. Well, well,

182
00:15:09,919 --> 00:15:13,679
he's that as part of artist descent
into fascism. Yeah, this is why

183
00:15:13,519 --> 00:15:18,120
I think largely a result of the
federal raid on them. You mean because

184
00:15:18,159 --> 00:15:26,080
of the bitcoin they were rated because
some of the hosts have been, you

185
00:15:26,120 --> 00:15:31,080
know, allegedly selling bitcoin without the
correct paperwork. Okay, well you mean

186
00:15:31,120 --> 00:15:35,440
they were committing fraud. Yeah,
well I'm not really. I don't even

187
00:15:35,480 --> 00:15:39,399
think that's the accusation. It was
more like unlicensed money transmitting to them,

188
00:15:39,759 --> 00:15:48,080
isn't that? Isn't that fraud?
No? What bounds like fraud? What's

189
00:15:48,080 --> 00:15:52,799
that? Eric? Or money laundering? Is money laundering? Or money laundering

190
00:15:52,840 --> 00:15:58,279
sounds even worse than frauds? Yeah, you're right, Eric. Well you

191
00:15:58,320 --> 00:16:02,320
see that's what we like having a
guy from Iowa. He has good common

192
00:16:02,480 --> 00:16:07,679
sense that's true. Yes, the
mid Midwestern is an elephants. Well,

193
00:16:08,159 --> 00:16:11,399
Dave, I do want to hear
more about this, but can you Yeah,

194
00:16:11,440 --> 00:16:15,519
can you give us a call tomorrow? There you go, Thursdays okay

195
00:16:15,519 --> 00:16:18,240
please, Yeah, I don't have
any guest book tomorrow. And I do

196
00:16:18,279 --> 00:16:22,360
want to dive deeper into this because
I'm fascinated by all things media and I

197
00:16:22,399 --> 00:16:27,000
do want to know no more about
this, but not money laundering does fascinate

198
00:16:27,039 --> 00:16:30,720
you. Money laundering does not fascinate
me necessarily. It's not something I've ever

199
00:16:30,759 --> 00:16:33,279
considered. But yeah, Dave,
if you can give us a call tomorrow,

200
00:16:34,440 --> 00:16:37,919
Okay, that's the plan. Okay, sounds good. We'll talk to

201
00:16:37,919 --> 00:16:41,559
you then, bye bye. Just
think if we had followed through and created

202
00:16:41,559 --> 00:16:45,600
our own cryptocurrency, the witcoin,
we'd probably be in jail now. Ah,

203
00:16:45,720 --> 00:16:51,720
that's true, except the lack of
initiative to actually create it would probably

204
00:16:51,720 --> 00:16:55,879
give us a lack of initiative to
do anything. But well, that's a

205
00:16:56,320 --> 00:17:00,600
that's a great point as well.
Uh. The studio line is open six

206
00:17:00,720 --> 00:17:03,519
zo three two five o six z
seven six zo three two five six seven.

207
00:17:04,000 --> 00:17:07,039
Eric Pilcher, my favorite conservative is
here with us, as he is

208
00:17:07,039 --> 00:17:10,839
the first hour every Wednesday, and
John Hopwood has joined us as well.

209
00:17:11,400 --> 00:17:15,039
And uh, Eric, you had
messaged me earlier about uh some folks.

210
00:17:15,039 --> 00:17:18,920
I just heard a loud click.
Are you still there? Yeah, I'm

211
00:17:18,960 --> 00:17:22,359
here, okay, pulling up some
information I have about the subject that I

212
00:17:23,839 --> 00:17:26,599
oh, okay, yeah, the
in my headphones it sounded like a pop

213
00:17:26,680 --> 00:17:33,400
I thought i'd I thought we'd lost
you. Yeah, he has a familiar

214
00:17:33,519 --> 00:17:37,839
a dog. H. Yes,
they're going have a son in sam situation.

215
00:17:37,880 --> 00:17:41,880
Oh my goodness. Wow. That's
uh, that sounds terrifying. Um,

216
00:17:41,920 --> 00:17:44,160
while you uh, while you pull
that up, Eric, I do

217
00:17:44,200 --> 00:17:48,079
want to say hello everybody in the
Facebook live chat Quickly. Miriam Banish joins

218
00:17:48,160 --> 00:17:52,039
us in there, and Eric,
I see you're in there. Oh uh

219
00:17:52,079 --> 00:17:56,519
and uh Rondo Favero of course from
the West Coast and u oh, Melanie,

220
00:17:56,680 --> 00:18:00,720
uh, Liberty of course from the
Great state of Romo runs on you.

221
00:18:00,200 --> 00:18:03,240
Melanie says, I can't wait to
hear what what he says about the

222
00:18:03,240 --> 00:18:07,759
crucifix scene. Requiem for a Dream. That was a rough movie. Yeah,

223
00:18:07,799 --> 00:18:12,000
a brilliant film. But pa I
liked it at the time. I

224
00:18:12,000 --> 00:18:15,480
thought it was quite laugh I thought
it was quite good. Wow, you

225
00:18:15,519 --> 00:18:18,519
just laugh at everything. But Eric, you messaged me earlier about some of

226
00:18:18,559 --> 00:18:25,000
these media personalities like Tommy Loren and
Ben Shapiro, who who's Tommy Loren?

227
00:18:25,079 --> 00:18:27,720
Are getting a lot of hate.
She kind of exists in both the online

228
00:18:27,839 --> 00:18:33,240
and the cable news media world,
right right, Eric? She t O

229
00:18:33,599 --> 00:18:38,160
M M I E no t O
M I. Oh so Tommy t O

230
00:18:38,319 --> 00:18:41,160
M I tom I pronounced it Tommy? Am I saying that? Right?

231
00:18:41,319 --> 00:18:48,279
Eric? I think it's Tommy Tommy. I like that Tommy. They they've

232
00:18:48,279 --> 00:18:56,720
had the temerity to to express skepticism
about President Trump's former President Trump's uh uh

233
00:18:57,079 --> 00:19:02,759
chances, shall we say in the
upcoming election. Yes, they have.

234
00:19:03,039 --> 00:19:10,200
And I actually found the clip a
short time before air of Larn's comments,

235
00:19:10,519 --> 00:19:18,559
and it's one of those things that
I think the hardcore megas supporter has the

236
00:19:18,720 --> 00:19:25,720
attention span of a fleet. So
they heard the first part of her statement

237
00:19:26,400 --> 00:19:30,519
and saw red and just went off. But if they heard the whole statement,

238
00:19:32,279 --> 00:19:36,000
they would have been like, oh, okay, I don't like Kart

239
00:19:36,079 --> 00:19:40,759
one, but parts two and three
are okay, and probably would have calmed

240
00:19:40,799 --> 00:19:48,960
down. But apparently I follow her
on Twitter and I went to access her

241
00:19:48,000 --> 00:19:53,839
tweets and you have to subscribe to
her on Twitter. Now, yeah,

242
00:19:53,880 --> 00:19:57,079
that's like one of the new things, right, you can subscribe, but

243
00:19:57,160 --> 00:20:02,440
you have to pay money or something
to hear her anyone's opinion, honestly.

244
00:20:02,720 --> 00:20:10,079
Yeah, so I couldn't see.
But on her Instagram she said that she

245
00:20:10,200 --> 00:20:18,599
had been called a dumb blonde bimbo
mega supporters. And what she said on

246
00:20:18,720 --> 00:20:22,839
Fox Nation was she doubt and I'm
going to paraphrase a little bit here,

247
00:20:22,880 --> 00:20:27,559
but the crux of it is she
thought that Donald Trump would have a very

248
00:20:27,599 --> 00:20:33,319
difficult time winning the general election.
I have stated the very same thing on

249
00:20:33,359 --> 00:20:37,599
your show for many months now,
and I still believe it. Yes,

250
00:20:37,880 --> 00:20:41,759
but she said, if you think
Donald Trump is going to go quietly into

251
00:20:41,799 --> 00:20:47,720
the night, then you don't know
Donald Trump. So I just want who's

252
00:20:47,759 --> 00:20:52,000
gonna stop Who's gonna stop Donald Trump? Because the way it looks not because

253
00:20:52,119 --> 00:20:56,079
I'm just I've been avoiding death surfing. He's going to be the next president

254
00:20:56,200 --> 00:20:59,799
United States. Well, he's certainly
going to be the nominee. But I

255
00:21:00,319 --> 00:21:06,119
finally agree with you. But it's
interesting that right opposition? Oh absolutely?

256
00:21:06,640 --> 00:21:08,640
But uh no, But what what
Eric was talking about is that. Uh

257
00:21:10,240 --> 00:21:15,000
so she says this, and of
course Maga world goes nuts and they're angry

258
00:21:15,000 --> 00:21:17,440
at her. And it sounds to
me, like Eric, like she wasn't

259
00:21:17,519 --> 00:21:22,200
saying anything against Trump. She was
just offering a dispassionate political analysis. But

260
00:21:22,839 --> 00:21:29,359
uh, they're so they're so sensitive
um about about their their great hero that

261
00:21:29,400 --> 00:21:37,720
they can't even the faintest criticism or
or negative point of view about his chances

262
00:21:37,759 --> 00:21:42,000
from their own side. And they
immediately just they they just lose their minds.

263
00:21:42,039 --> 00:21:45,319
And this is a great example of
that. They start insulting her.

264
00:21:45,920 --> 00:21:52,000
I mean, she's a pretty solid
supporter of his, consistently right but child

265
00:21:52,079 --> 00:21:59,000
of his. Yeah, throughout his
presidency and his through his when he first

266
00:21:59,119 --> 00:22:04,480
ran his presidency and his reelection campaign, both her and Ben Shapiro, Mada

267
00:22:04,559 --> 00:22:12,440
Nation loved them. And now they're
they're in the crosshairs for disputing that the

268
00:22:12,599 --> 00:22:21,200
great Donald could win this election.
Right. And Ben Shapiro's point, and

269
00:22:21,279 --> 00:22:26,119
I go back to this, because
I still firmly agree with him, is

270
00:22:26,440 --> 00:22:30,400
the groups he was able to carry
in twenty twenty he won't be able to

271
00:22:30,440 --> 00:22:37,519
carry again. On what groups are
those he was able to carry the minority

272
00:22:37,599 --> 00:22:42,519
vote at higher levels than exit polls
indicated, and the women vote at a

273
00:22:42,640 --> 00:22:48,799
higher at a higher rate than what
pulls indicated. Ben Shapiro says he that

274
00:22:49,119 --> 00:22:56,440
those numbers are going to plummet for
Trump. So his theory is that what's

275
00:22:56,480 --> 00:23:02,720
going to end up happening is that
Trump's gonna lose in a landslide because he

276
00:23:02,799 --> 00:23:07,680
won't have those numbers to make it
close. And Ben Shapiro got attacked by

277
00:23:07,759 --> 00:23:12,279
Maga Nation and and just to be
clear, Ben Shapiro, he's not saying

278
00:23:12,319 --> 00:23:18,079
anything against Trump, although he's he's
one of the few people I will say

279
00:23:18,079 --> 00:23:22,000
this, he's one of the few
conservatives who over over the course of the

280
00:23:22,079 --> 00:23:26,279
last several years, has gotten away
with, you know, here and there

281
00:23:26,319 --> 00:23:30,240
sort of mildly criticizing Trump and and
and sort of gotten away with it without

282
00:23:30,279 --> 00:23:34,839
the rest of conservative media trying to
drown him for it. Um. But

283
00:23:34,960 --> 00:23:38,079
I mean, you know, he's
just offering a political analysis. But it's

284
00:23:38,160 --> 00:23:45,319
like, yeah, they everybody gets
so they're so protective of their their hero,

285
00:23:45,640 --> 00:23:51,559
they can't stand even again a dispassionate
political analysis. It just drives them

286
00:23:51,599 --> 00:23:53,960
them crazy. Um. I don't
think it's gonna. I don't think it's

287
00:23:53,960 --> 00:23:57,839
gonna hurt him any in the long
run. But Tony Laurent it it's disappointing

288
00:23:57,880 --> 00:24:02,880
that they're you know, calling her, calling her names and so forth.

289
00:24:03,240 --> 00:24:07,839
And this doesn't this isn't happening on
Democrats, right because you give Biden a

290
00:24:07,920 --> 00:24:11,880
free pass. If people talk about
him being an old man orything, you

291
00:24:11,880 --> 00:24:18,039
don't think people pile up on them. I don't see how Biden is going

292
00:24:18,079 --> 00:24:22,240
to win a reelection. The man
that is barely alive. Yeah, did

293
00:24:22,279 --> 00:24:26,160
you ever listen to the show John
when you're not on it? Yes?

294
00:24:26,319 --> 00:24:27,559
Okay, because I talk about that
a lot. You just said, ever

295
00:24:27,680 --> 00:24:30,440
hear it? Thought you just said, I give Biden a pass. I

296
00:24:30,480 --> 00:24:34,640
think you do. I know you
just said I give Biden a pass and

297
00:24:34,720 --> 00:24:38,240
that and that you know people talk
about him being being an old man.

298
00:24:38,359 --> 00:24:44,160
I'm channeling Mike not Oh, I
see right right right the seconds right right,

299
00:24:44,200 --> 00:24:45,559
So you're doing the thing where you
don't listen and then you say,

300
00:24:45,559 --> 00:24:49,720
oh, you never talk about this, even though right right now, I

301
00:24:51,160 --> 00:24:56,119
get what I got, understand the
bit now, Okay. The more exciting

302
00:24:56,160 --> 00:25:00,880
stuff is that I have to admit
the Trump stuff yeah, well, of

303
00:25:00,920 --> 00:25:03,319
course, of course, where where's
Mike Doyle when you need him? But

304
00:25:03,440 --> 00:25:07,799
there's uh, well now that now
that you've mentioned Trump, he'll be calling

305
00:25:07,880 --> 00:25:11,079
any second now. But you two
are piling up on Trump and where's Mike

306
00:25:11,119 --> 00:25:14,920
Doyle when you need No, we're
not John you you're missing the point of

307
00:25:15,200 --> 00:25:18,519
the conversation. But I am.
I am for a reason. We're having

308
00:25:18,559 --> 00:25:21,799
an I see. No, we're
talking about how you know, on the

309
00:25:21,880 --> 00:25:25,559
right, if you even faintly criticize
Trump, then you're in trouble. Where

310
00:25:25,559 --> 00:25:27,440
are you sing on the same thing
on the on the on the right,

311
00:25:27,559 --> 00:25:32,440
that's called the Democratic Party. On
the left, if you criticize Biden,

312
00:25:32,559 --> 00:25:34,160
people say, uh yeah, you're
right, he is too old. There's

313
00:25:34,200 --> 00:25:38,680
the left in the United States because
Democratic Party is a center right. Well,

314
00:25:38,960 --> 00:25:42,720
that's a whole other discussion, is
it. But yeah, I think

315
00:25:42,720 --> 00:25:48,000
it is. I think it is. But um so you're this segment of

316
00:25:48,039 --> 00:25:52,680
the show is just about media.
We get an other things too, But

317
00:25:52,880 --> 00:26:00,240
I'm going to get my camera and
get that that death that stare. But

318
00:26:00,359 --> 00:26:03,480
you're analyzing the media. Yes,
we do that quite a bit during this

319
00:26:03,559 --> 00:26:11,480
segment. Yes, yeah, at
the death stair yes, yes, all

320
00:26:11,559 --> 00:26:15,519
right. Uh so, uh have
you seen any other examples of this?

321
00:26:15,720 --> 00:26:21,079
Eric, Well, I mean I
have been personally attacks since I, uh,

322
00:26:21,119 --> 00:26:26,720
since I've said that I'm going to
caucus for uh for Christie, yes,

323
00:26:26,960 --> 00:26:33,200
Jesus christ No, no, no, it's pronounced Christie. That Christie.

324
00:26:33,519 --> 00:26:40,680
That that that professional look god,
that the oh my god? You

325
00:26:40,720 --> 00:26:47,200
know so, uh John, I
don't think John approves of your choice.

326
00:26:48,160 --> 00:26:52,960
You ever seen that? The idiot? He was actually pretty vocal of it

327
00:26:53,000 --> 00:26:59,480
when I announced it on Facebook.
Scumbag. My god, he said,

328
00:26:59,480 --> 00:27:03,720
he's a govern in New Jersey.
That's enough to you know, that's enough

329
00:27:03,759 --> 00:27:07,759
to just that's all you need to
know. I mean, this isn't the

330
00:27:07,839 --> 00:27:11,519
Woodrow Wilson. He was the government
New Jersey too, but he had his

331
00:27:11,559 --> 00:27:17,680
own faults, right like disius racism, Well, but he was progressive.

332
00:27:17,799 --> 00:27:25,720
I don't Chris Christie hang going to
the men's human hang myself and my well

333
00:27:25,799 --> 00:27:29,440
hawcus for that. He for a
fat man. He slid on his feet.

334
00:27:29,480 --> 00:27:32,119
I'll tell you that. That's about
it. He reminds me of bad

335
00:27:32,160 --> 00:27:37,920
man Migelow in that sense. Jeez, he's definitely at a fun Yes,

336
00:27:37,160 --> 00:27:42,400
yes, I've been trying not to
follow all this stuff because it's literally insanity.

337
00:27:45,599 --> 00:27:49,119
It's so oh my god. You
know, both parties are so insane.

338
00:27:52,240 --> 00:27:56,880
Drawn mansion is here in Goff's town, right on the border of Manchester.

339
00:27:56,000 --> 00:28:00,799
It's like, no, I know, yeah, he's not one of

340
00:28:00,799 --> 00:28:04,920
my favorite people. It's it's like, holy smuck, go ahead, Erica,

341
00:28:06,559 --> 00:28:10,759
Eric, make you make your pitch
for Chris Christie party. Right now,

342
00:28:11,160 --> 00:28:17,160
there isn't a lot of like it's
a man that's gonna parted people involved

343
00:28:17,160 --> 00:28:26,599
in January six and facing major federal
charges for keep for taking classified documents.

344
00:28:27,119 --> 00:28:33,759
A man that's going to try to
bring us back to nineteen fifties America across

345
00:28:33,839 --> 00:28:37,960
the board or Chris Christie. Hey, I was born in the nineteen fifties

346
00:28:37,960 --> 00:28:42,519
in America. I assume I assume
with the nineteen fifties part you're referring to

347
00:28:42,599 --> 00:28:48,400
RN de Santis. Yeah, yeah, Hey, you can get a good

348
00:28:48,480 --> 00:28:52,920
deal at Disney World. Uh,
nobody's going. My niece just went down

349
00:28:53,000 --> 00:29:00,160
there because they really slashed the raids. Well, I yes, I mean

350
00:29:00,319 --> 00:29:04,079
Florida. You know, there just
isn't You're looking at it and you're like,

351
00:29:04,200 --> 00:29:10,799
man, oh man, decisions decisions, but it is. It's like

352
00:29:10,960 --> 00:29:14,960
when you're a college kid and he
struck out with every woman at the bar

353
00:29:15,160 --> 00:29:22,039
and it's getting close to closing time. Ever happened to me? As long

354
00:29:22,079 --> 00:29:26,920
as you have a bag with you, you know you were fine. Oh.

355
00:29:26,960 --> 00:29:29,119
By the way, Gonzo is in
the chatroom and says, hey,

356
00:29:29,119 --> 00:29:33,000
guys, it's my birthday. Happy
birthday, Gonzo. Happy birthday to you,

357
00:29:33,079 --> 00:29:36,519
mister Gonzo. And also our friend
Cristel from the Great State of Illinois

358
00:29:36,599 --> 00:29:40,599
joins us. She says, I
get attacked for being an independent and criticizing

359
00:29:40,680 --> 00:29:42,119
either party. I call it as
I see it, and I think both

360
00:29:42,119 --> 00:29:47,680
parties have become corrupt af I think
we would actually all agree on that large

361
00:29:48,119 --> 00:29:52,519
probably. Oh, we can't say
that, Yes, f bomb, you

362
00:29:52,599 --> 00:29:56,759
can say it. You have the
dump button just well no, no,

363
00:29:56,759 --> 00:30:00,720
no, I'm not supposed to willfully
because the problem is, I don't know.

364
00:30:02,240 --> 00:30:06,200
Well, it still goes out on
online and so it's still it's frowned

365
00:30:06,240 --> 00:30:11,599
upon in this establishment. Oh and
Mike from Queen City Cabinetry joins us,

366
00:30:11,799 --> 00:30:15,200
are you f I'm literally getting indigestion. Granted eight two hot dogs, but

367
00:30:15,200 --> 00:30:21,039
they were kosher. There you were
national and talking about Chris Christie as some

368
00:30:21,200 --> 00:30:26,079
alternative too. At least Trump is
a world class psychotics, you know,

369
00:30:27,319 --> 00:30:32,279
talking about Chris Christie as an alternative. So are you saying, wait,

370
00:30:32,480 --> 00:30:37,440
solely God, what do I women? This is why you know you put

371
00:30:37,519 --> 00:30:42,240
clips out now listen to them?
Huh? So are you saying that highlights?

372
00:30:42,359 --> 00:30:45,400
Yeah, so Chris Chris Christie is
not psychotic enough for you, is

373
00:30:45,440 --> 00:30:52,440
what you're saying, John, Chris
Christie is my thing, this toilet film.

374
00:30:52,640 --> 00:30:56,279
Wow, No, buddy, he's
a froze. It's clutterly corrup.

375
00:30:56,880 --> 00:31:02,000
You know, Trump isn't a whole
different in class. Trump is just like

376
00:31:02,200 --> 00:31:06,240
evil. He's like an evil personified, but in a good way because he

377
00:31:06,359 --> 00:31:15,240
really didn't accomplish much in his evil. Well, there's that the heck he's

378
00:31:15,400 --> 00:31:21,680
nothing. It's like, holy good, I can't believe I'm this age.

379
00:31:22,279 --> 00:31:26,640
I mean, I remember the Jimmy
Carter and Ronald Reagan thinking, Holy christ

380
00:31:26,759 --> 00:31:30,640
talk about being between a hot rock
and a hard place. Now it's it's

381
00:31:30,720 --> 00:31:37,759
like you couldn't even you'd have to
use I didn't take trigonometry, you know,

382
00:31:37,920 --> 00:31:40,839
I just thought that algebra too.
I don't know how to calculate the

383
00:31:40,920 --> 00:31:44,720
odds of going from that nineteen eighty
to this what we're talking about now.

384
00:31:45,079 --> 00:31:51,160
It seems like it's impossible. Where
I aren't these non human intelligence intervening or

385
00:31:51,359 --> 00:31:55,039
had they? Because I've got to
go soon, But I want you talk

386
00:31:55,079 --> 00:32:00,319
about media. But there's a meme
that Ronald not Ronald Reagan, who's the

387
00:32:00,400 --> 00:32:04,279
idiot that was president last time?
Said the idiot that was when I was

388
00:32:04,359 --> 00:32:09,200
twenty years old. Wait, what
this idiot Trump? Trump is a reptilian

389
00:32:09,400 --> 00:32:15,319
alian cac He's a frog, He's
an amphibian aliens. I thought it makes

390
00:32:15,359 --> 00:32:20,559
perfect sense. I thought he was
Scottish explains his coloring. Oh oh it

391
00:32:20,759 --> 00:32:23,640
was, actually, yes it does. But you know, Congress, even

392
00:32:23,759 --> 00:32:28,440
Chuck Schumer, these aren't just nuts
from the Republican Party, you know,

393
00:32:28,599 --> 00:32:34,000
stirring things up in the House.
They're talking about creating whistleblowers for these you

394
00:32:34,039 --> 00:32:38,119
know, they can call them UFOs
anymore. UAP. Yes, I don't

395
00:32:38,119 --> 00:32:43,720
even know what it is, unidentified
aerial phenomenaial anymore. It's called anomalous or

396
00:32:43,759 --> 00:32:46,079
something. That's right. That's right, they did change it and non human

397
00:32:46,200 --> 00:32:51,799
intelligences. They're going to come out
that some of the politicians are indeed non

398
00:32:51,920 --> 00:32:54,640
human intelligences, which explained so much. What do you think about that,

399
00:32:54,799 --> 00:33:00,720
Eric, have you studied that at
all? Uh? No, because you're

400
00:33:00,720 --> 00:33:04,960
a sci fi guys don't care about
Iowa. You don't see anybody getting snatched

401
00:33:05,039 --> 00:33:07,039
up there. It's always like Tennessee
or New Hampshire, places like that,

402
00:33:07,400 --> 00:33:12,039
Right, that's rug rugged Stock.
Yeah, that's true. I don't know

403
00:33:12,039 --> 00:33:14,920
how any famous Iowans who've been abducted, do you, Eric christ it's so

404
00:33:15,160 --> 00:33:20,640
flat. Well Tom Arnold, but
no, that was he got abducted by

405
00:33:20,759 --> 00:33:24,920
Roseanne bar and you know we still
more more than for him. I don't

406
00:33:24,960 --> 00:33:30,640
know if that you would call that
an abduction or what, but that's probably

407
00:33:30,720 --> 00:33:34,960
career happened. Wait a minute,
I just realized something. Captain Kirkiss from

408
00:33:34,960 --> 00:33:37,720
Iowa. That's only in the reboot
of the movie. No, in the

409
00:33:37,759 --> 00:33:42,119
original series he says he was from
Iowa. I only remember that from the

410
00:33:42,200 --> 00:33:46,000
reboot of Actually that was in uh, that was in Star Trek four when

411
00:33:46,079 --> 00:33:51,119
that started. How dare you go
a country? I am? I am

412
00:33:51,240 --> 00:33:55,880
all? I am almost certain that
in the movie. In In an episode

413
00:33:55,960 --> 00:34:02,400
in the original series, someone asks
him where or someone asks him what star

414
00:34:02,519 --> 00:34:06,039
he's from, and he says Earth. And someone asked him where on Earth

415
00:34:06,039 --> 00:34:08,239
and he says Iowa. He could
have been facetious. I could be wrong,

416
00:34:08,320 --> 00:34:12,800
though. I might be I might
be having my own personal Mandela effect.

417
00:34:15,719 --> 00:34:17,920
He's Eric's looking it up. I
can hear the key stapping. That's

418
00:34:17,960 --> 00:34:22,400
not fair. We should just use
our brain power while still yeah right,

419
00:34:23,000 --> 00:34:28,719
I'm supporting Chris Christy. What brain
power do I have? Well, you

420
00:34:28,840 --> 00:34:32,159
know, maybe of a mush melon. Oh my goodness, that's not nice.

421
00:34:32,519 --> 00:34:37,920
Wow. Thanks, I'm much appreciated. You've gone down hill ever since

422
00:34:37,960 --> 00:34:42,800
you betrayed me and come on here
to talk about media. No, he's

423
00:34:43,400 --> 00:34:49,079
he's betrayed Trump. Did you did
you find it? Eric? Am I

424
00:34:49,159 --> 00:34:54,440
wrong? Yes? It? According
to the Chicago Tribune, he said it

425
00:34:54,480 --> 00:35:01,159
in the nineteen eighty six movie Star
Trek four ho I'll be dammed, I'll

426
00:35:01,199 --> 00:35:05,880
be damned. Yeah, you know
what I think Probably the scene I'm thinking

427
00:35:05,960 --> 00:35:07,519
if he says he's from Earth,
but he never says Iowa. I don't

428
00:35:07,519 --> 00:35:10,280
know why. I thought in the
original series they established that, But apparently

429
00:35:10,320 --> 00:35:16,400
I was ruined. Well, because
every year riverside Iowa. The last weekend

430
00:35:16,480 --> 00:35:24,480
of June has a dirt and mud
show U fair called Trek Fast Oh my

431
00:35:25,159 --> 00:35:30,400
oh, And they've had it since
because the early Trekkies started in the seventies.

432
00:35:30,760 --> 00:35:34,440
And remember all the actors used to
go to that, and that's one

433
00:35:34,440 --> 00:35:37,679
of the reasons they made the movie
Star Trek the motion picture because of the

434
00:35:37,760 --> 00:35:43,000
intense interest of these that incredible fan
base. So is this one of the

435
00:35:43,079 --> 00:35:51,239
original events for the trek eas I
believe it started in eighty nine we're talking

436
00:35:51,239 --> 00:35:55,960
about this. They haven't. They
do have a statue of the enterprise accept

437
00:35:57,000 --> 00:36:01,039
it's called the USS Riverside, and
they have an actual and they have a

438
00:36:01,159 --> 00:36:06,920
plaque that says, this is Captain
James T. Kirk's birthplace and you can

439
00:36:07,039 --> 00:36:13,000
buy a veil, a little vial
of Kirk dirt. Oh God, place

440
00:36:13,079 --> 00:36:19,320
of James T. Kirk. This
shows you the complete decadence of America.

441
00:36:19,559 --> 00:36:22,360
Well, they'll take a great in
the memory of a great American. Um

442
00:36:22,679 --> 00:36:27,559
what next, you're gonna say,
they're gonna they're probably selling parts of the

443
00:36:27,679 --> 00:36:30,840
True Cross. When Christ came to
the Americas and was crucified yet again,

444
00:36:31,039 --> 00:36:35,320
you know, right, because he
came over here. That's what the Mormons.

445
00:36:35,440 --> 00:36:37,159
Right, Well, I think Joseph
Smith brought him. We're not.

446
00:36:37,639 --> 00:36:44,280
Yeah, that's because he was the
first American Jesus for most foremost one Yes,

447
00:36:44,559 --> 00:36:52,599
good YEO filmed his show Invasion Iowa
for Spike TV. That's where he

448
00:36:52,679 --> 00:36:57,159
filmed it at, was Riverside,
Iowa. Invasion Iowa. Yeah, you

449
00:36:57,199 --> 00:37:00,719
don't say I've never heard of that, have you, mister Covington. No,

450
00:37:02,280 --> 00:37:07,840
yes, it was on a Spike
TV in two thousand and four.

451
00:37:07,079 --> 00:37:10,199
I believe. Oh he used my
button. I didn't even know about it.

452
00:37:10,880 --> 00:37:14,440
Well, what he did was he
went into Riverside and said, hey,

453
00:37:14,519 --> 00:37:17,519
I'm filming a science fiction movie.
And it was a load of crap

454
00:37:17,719 --> 00:37:25,960
just to get the town the pffoons
of themselves for six weeks. Oh okay

455
00:37:27,639 --> 00:37:32,280
at the end of it, Um, this is the absolute truth. My

456
00:37:32,480 --> 00:37:40,639
best friend, his aunt, was
in the fake movie, and William Shatner

457
00:37:40,679 --> 00:37:44,599
asked her, why do you want
to be a part of this movie,

458
00:37:45,000 --> 00:37:49,599
and she said, because I'm trying
to adopt my grandson as my own son

459
00:37:50,679 --> 00:37:54,440
because he has troubled parents, and
I'm going to use the money for lawyers

460
00:37:54,519 --> 00:38:00,159
and court fees. William Shatner at
the end of the show actually paid for

461
00:38:00,519 --> 00:38:04,320
the lawyers and court fees. Oh
wow, well that's cool. So it's

462
00:38:04,360 --> 00:38:07,800
got that's got a positive? Is
this something with Jesus a positive ending?

463
00:38:07,880 --> 00:38:13,960
What is this something with Jesus in
America? Oh, you'd have to ask

464
00:38:14,119 --> 00:38:16,239
Erica he is the one who ghost
to church? Or did Does this have

465
00:38:16,400 --> 00:38:20,719
something to do that movie with a
guy that played Jesus and the Mel Gibson

466
00:38:20,840 --> 00:38:24,880
movie is Saving Kids in Colombia because
there's a lot of controversy about that film,

467
00:38:24,960 --> 00:38:29,239
but I haven't figured it out yet. Oh, that's why I came

468
00:38:29,360 --> 00:38:34,519
here today. That's a good point, John, What Jesus? Or about

469
00:38:34,719 --> 00:38:42,760
Jim Cal's vial? What do you
call him? Yeah? Yeah? Is

470
00:38:43,719 --> 00:38:52,880
from the from the from the right, is that Hollywood upset because this film

471
00:38:54,039 --> 00:39:02,239
Samily defeated Indiana Jones and the dial
of destiny in theaters is now trying too,

472
00:39:02,800 --> 00:39:09,159
is forcing theater employees to do things
like shutting off the air in theaters

473
00:39:09,239 --> 00:39:15,239
that air this movie. They're shutting
down the air conditioning or they're actually killing

474
00:39:15,360 --> 00:39:24,719
people. Yes, they're turning there. That's something give give uh good old

475
00:39:24,920 --> 00:39:29,639
Tucker Carlson time. That's one he
don't come up with yeah. Um,

476
00:39:30,880 --> 00:39:34,880
but yeah, there's a lot of
accusations about how Hollywood is trying to just

477
00:39:35,119 --> 00:39:40,360
crush this movie because it's trying to
end child trafficking and Hollywood is so big

478
00:39:40,440 --> 00:39:45,920
into this. Well, it's very
interesting that the whole thing is the white

479
00:39:45,039 --> 00:39:51,920
savior system and they're doing the trafficking
is in uh, you know, a

480
00:39:52,000 --> 00:39:55,599
foreign country, and that it's like
so many films based on a true story,

481
00:39:55,679 --> 00:39:59,920
but it's really not based on any
story and one of the people who

482
00:40:00,000 --> 00:40:04,440
involved them had nothing to do with
South America. That it actually does ignore,

483
00:40:05,199 --> 00:40:08,840
like you know, if there's any
traffic in going on pedophilia going on

484
00:40:08,920 --> 00:40:14,800
in the United States, it's putting
it out over here because you know,

485
00:40:14,960 --> 00:40:19,599
two of the most the most powerful
man in the world, Bill Gates,

486
00:40:20,199 --> 00:40:25,599
was with the Epstein, Which that's
true, that stuff actually happened. And

487
00:40:25,719 --> 00:40:31,440
I remember when that he was when
the Bush administration allowed him now with a

488
00:40:31,559 --> 00:40:37,360
hand slap, and this allowed him
to get away with practically everything. So

489
00:40:37,000 --> 00:40:40,039
you know, there's it's just all
sorts of talk about that movie. What

490
00:40:40,280 --> 00:40:44,719
is it up to from both the
left and the right. Yeah, but

491
00:40:45,719 --> 00:40:52,239
that that allegedly is the reason Indiana
Jones and the Diala Destiny f loot.

492
00:40:52,440 --> 00:40:58,039
The reason that the Indiana Jones out
gross this movie. It's just that the

493
00:40:58,159 --> 00:41:01,039
movie Indiana Jones because two million dollars
in this movie you didn't cost anything,

494
00:41:01,559 --> 00:41:07,519
is because in the Harrison Ford is
eighty two years old, and who hell

495
00:41:07,599 --> 00:41:09,679
wants to go see Indiana Jones at
eighty two. I didn't want to go

496
00:41:09,719 --> 00:41:15,199
see him after I saw the first
one in nineteen seventeen. Over within that

497
00:41:15,320 --> 00:41:22,480
now it's the Rex Theater. Oh
and because it's ridiculous. Well, I

498
00:41:22,920 --> 00:41:27,880
saw Indiana Jones and the Dialog Destiny
in theaters opening weekend. Did you like

499
00:41:28,079 --> 00:41:31,840
it? I thought it was amazing. I really enjoyed it. I wouldn't

500
00:41:31,840 --> 00:41:37,800
go see it if you threaten me
with hot pinchers. But you don't go

501
00:41:37,000 --> 00:41:42,159
see it, I'm gonna force you
to vote for Chris Christie. That's impossible.

502
00:41:42,679 --> 00:41:45,840
How can you force me to do
that? Oh? That's uh?

503
00:41:45,159 --> 00:41:49,639
You know? How can you get
me to Iowa? I've got some hot

504
00:41:49,719 --> 00:41:53,599
pinchers you do from that old B
d SM kit? That's right, you

505
00:41:53,679 --> 00:41:58,840
had from the old show. IM
take it with me everywhere I go on

506
00:41:59,000 --> 00:42:02,519
Matt Connerton unsheathed. Oh yeah,
that's it, that's true. It's awful

507
00:42:02,559 --> 00:42:07,280
good for an exorcism too, you
know, yes, yes, but I

508
00:42:07,320 --> 00:42:10,920
would say that most of the stuff
that comes out of Hollywood is absolute bs.

509
00:42:12,159 --> 00:42:15,840
You know, Melanie said in the
chat room, I can't wait to

510
00:42:15,840 --> 00:42:21,880
see Indiana Jones and the Crystal Densher's. I saw that one with the with

511
00:42:21,960 --> 00:42:25,440
the alien theme. That one really
sucked too. But what can you do.

512
00:42:27,400 --> 00:42:30,360
I really, there hasn't been an
Indiana Jones film that I disliked.

513
00:42:31,280 --> 00:42:37,360
That's because you're an Indiana Jones fan, and I find them to be pap.

514
00:42:37,960 --> 00:42:42,440
Well, I only saw I only
saw two of them, the first

515
00:42:42,559 --> 00:42:45,920
one, which I thought was pap
when I was twenty years old, and

516
00:42:45,280 --> 00:42:50,880
the second von I only watching because
Cape Blanchet was in it. I've only

517
00:42:50,960 --> 00:42:54,000
seen I've only seen the first two
actually, But you know, trendling this

518
00:42:54,119 --> 00:42:59,880
old fart out at that age,
at least the great actors like Boguards,

519
00:43:00,000 --> 00:43:04,079
Bencer, Tracy and then they had
the good sense to die before they got

520
00:43:04,159 --> 00:43:07,079
that old. You know, they
died in their sixties. Well, Bogie

521
00:43:07,119 --> 00:43:09,239
died at the mid fifties. I
mean, you know, so he didn't

522
00:43:09,239 --> 00:43:15,840
have to see them humiliating themselves.
Wow, I mean John Hopwood is a

523
00:43:15,960 --> 00:43:20,239
beacon of positivity. The only act
he's very agus. The only actor that

524
00:43:20,440 --> 00:43:23,760
actually played an old man that was
any good was Clint Eastwood, who surprised

525
00:43:23,800 --> 00:43:28,119
he was not a good actor.
But when he got old with like Million

526
00:43:28,159 --> 00:43:31,719
Dollar Baby, he was excellent in
that and some of the old fire roles

527
00:43:31,760 --> 00:43:36,880
he played h like the last what
was it? The old when he was

528
00:43:36,920 --> 00:43:38,599
the drugs, the mule, he
was real. He was excellent. Not

529
00:43:39,480 --> 00:43:45,440
but you know who wants to see
John Wayne at eighty? You know what's

530
00:43:45,440 --> 00:43:47,639
he gonna do? Gum people to
death. Well they died at seventy one.

531
00:43:47,719 --> 00:43:51,800
I was gonna say he's dead.
Yeah, but he retired about sixty

532
00:43:51,840 --> 00:43:54,400
five. But see Carry Grant retired
when he was sixty years old. Right

533
00:43:55,440 --> 00:44:00,159
now, do you think that?
Uh? No, I don't. I'm

534
00:44:00,159 --> 00:44:04,400
going with my negative team. Okay, so is Chris Christie. See how

535
00:44:04,920 --> 00:44:07,840
is your problem with Chris Christie that
you think he's too young to be president?

536
00:44:07,920 --> 00:44:14,039
Because we have we have to have
these Uh what about Graham news Gavin

537
00:44:14,119 --> 00:44:17,039
Newsom? Yeah, I had I
had a writing teacher who's a similar name

538
00:44:17,079 --> 00:44:20,679
from California, so I mix it
up. Yes, yes, is he

539
00:44:20,760 --> 00:44:23,719
going to be the presidential candidate for
the Democrats, because he's certainly running like

540
00:44:23,840 --> 00:44:28,599
he wants to be. I'm sure
he will in uh twenty twenty eight,

541
00:44:29,519 --> 00:44:35,000
No, twenty Democratic nomination for twenty
twenty four. That old fart cannot he

542
00:44:35,159 --> 00:44:38,519
can't hack it. It's happening.
Yeah, well that's happen. That's like

543
00:44:38,679 --> 00:44:43,199
a constitutional collect or not. I
mean, that's something we all, probably

544
00:44:43,239 --> 00:44:45,719
all three of us agree on.
I would think right that we need some

545
00:44:46,119 --> 00:44:51,760
younger. I think we need a
young, fresh faced, sixty five year

546
00:44:51,760 --> 00:44:53,519
old whipper snapper to get in there. And uh, I know it's a

547
00:44:53,559 --> 00:44:55,559
little scary, you know, give
it, you know, just handing the

548
00:44:55,599 --> 00:44:59,280
keys, so the White House over
to the kids, the youth. But

549
00:44:59,800 --> 00:45:02,840
you nice sixty five to sixty seven
year old, I say that, my

550
00:45:04,119 --> 00:45:09,760
I gotta go. My idea,
it was put forward by Kurt Vonnegut in

551
00:45:10,199 --> 00:45:16,880
Slaughterhouse five, that you balkanize the
United States and turn it into these petty

552
00:45:16,920 --> 00:45:21,960
little nations so they'll never threaten the
peace of the world again. Oh,

553
00:45:22,360 --> 00:45:24,679
Dave Ridley would go for that.
Yes, that's why I want to hear

554
00:45:24,679 --> 00:45:29,960
about his fascism. Yes, fashion
has come to corn Cob Connie, New

555
00:45:30,039 --> 00:45:34,719
Hampshire. Oh Fashioned excellent? Yes, well, Eric, you Trader is

556
00:45:34,800 --> 00:45:40,440
so and so I hope you enjoy
this mishmash of talk about bad stevens.

557
00:45:40,679 --> 00:45:45,480
Steven Spielberg did not direct that movie, did he? I think he?

558
00:45:45,920 --> 00:45:51,679
No, he did not. I
forget it. It's in my head,

559
00:45:51,719 --> 00:45:54,480
but I can't get the words out
on who did. I'll tell you what.

560
00:45:54,599 --> 00:46:00,880
I watched The Fableman's And for a
guy like that to get so long,

561
00:46:00,079 --> 00:46:04,639
you know, he's seventy five years
old, and to be so shallow

562
00:46:05,239 --> 00:46:09,199
and making like his autobiography is well, I would expect it from him,

563
00:46:09,679 --> 00:46:15,679
you know. Great technical director,
but just welling soul. There's a Steven

564
00:46:15,760 --> 00:46:22,159
Spielberg film on Classic Film Reviews this
week, John and what's up? No

565
00:46:22,440 --> 00:46:25,519
Close Encounters of the Third Time.
That is a great movie. Yes,

566
00:46:25,679 --> 00:46:30,519
except I think it would have been
better if if Gene Hackman had actually taken

567
00:46:30,599 --> 00:46:34,079
the role, because it's supposed to
be Gene Hackman. Because the one thing

568
00:46:34,239 --> 00:46:39,039
watching it over and over is how
irritating uh Richard Dreyfus is. Yeah,

569
00:46:39,039 --> 00:46:44,039
at the time, I liked him
in it. But now, but of

570
00:46:44,079 --> 00:46:46,079
course it would be a different film
with Gene Hackman. Yes, it had

571
00:46:46,119 --> 00:46:52,000
been most serious. I was rooting
for the Aliens anytime Richard Dreyfus was on

572
00:46:52,079 --> 00:46:55,800
the screen. Oh, I was
afraid that his girdle, you know they

573
00:46:55,840 --> 00:47:00,039
call they call a male course,
that a Richard dreyf Shelan Hollywood. I

574
00:47:00,159 --> 00:47:04,920
was always afraid that it might break. Because there's one thing you notice when

575
00:47:04,920 --> 00:47:07,920
you watch the classic Star Trek series. You can always tell Pickling the last

576
00:47:07,960 --> 00:47:14,599
two seasons where you are in the
season by when when you start seeing uh,

577
00:47:14,960 --> 00:47:17,639
you know, Bill shat there,
it starts like his chest starts puffing

578
00:47:17,719 --> 00:47:22,760
up because they're cinching in his waist
with a corset. Right right, Yeah,

579
00:47:22,840 --> 00:47:25,280
that is true that you you actually, you actually can tell that.

580
00:47:25,760 --> 00:47:29,280
Well, you know, it's sad
to get hold of and fat. It

581
00:47:29,360 --> 00:47:32,079
happens a lot of us. It's
weird when he wears the green dress shirt.

582
00:47:34,719 --> 00:47:37,679
Oh yeah, yeah, I gotta
go fucking you guys, all right,

583
00:47:38,199 --> 00:47:42,679
John Hopwood is leaving. But yeah, I'm sorry said that again,

584
00:47:42,800 --> 00:47:45,960
Eric, Oh, I just told
John it was fun. Yes, yes,

585
00:47:46,239 --> 00:47:49,920
By the way, I have to
stick up for Dave Ridley on something

586
00:47:50,159 --> 00:47:53,360
Scott Robinson just said on the Facebook
live chat. I wish that Ridley guy

587
00:47:53,400 --> 00:47:57,159
would call in with Hopwood there.
It's almost like he's afraid of him.

588
00:47:57,360 --> 00:48:00,599
But no, Actually Dave Ridley did
call in, but it was about a

589
00:48:00,639 --> 00:48:04,760
subject that we're gonna we're gonna tackle
on another day. I am curious to

590
00:48:04,840 --> 00:48:08,440
know about the h the apparent demise
or partial demise of Free Talk Live.

591
00:48:08,840 --> 00:48:13,199
That's a nationally syndicated show. Do
you get that in Iowa? Eric Free

592
00:48:13,239 --> 00:48:16,519
Talk Live? Um, I don't. I've never heard of it. Honestly,

593
00:48:16,639 --> 00:48:20,880
this is the first I've heard.
Yeah, Free Talk Live is Um,

594
00:48:20,960 --> 00:48:25,000
they're libertarians. They're very libertarian.
And Ian Freeman one of the hosts

595
00:48:25,079 --> 00:48:30,320
and one of the founders of the
show, he actually got into some legal

596
00:48:30,400 --> 00:48:34,719
trouble over bitcoin and it's it's very
complicated. David Lee can explain it much

597
00:48:34,760 --> 00:48:37,639
better than I can. But but
it sounds like they're they're changing the show

598
00:48:37,760 --> 00:48:42,880
or but they're pretty successful. They're
on Uh. Last I knew, they

599
00:48:42,880 --> 00:48:47,000
were on well over one hundred stations
nationally at FM and AM stations. I

600
00:48:47,159 --> 00:48:52,199
know some Iowa Iowa and libertarians.
I will certainly ask them if they've heard

601
00:48:52,239 --> 00:48:58,159
of it. And yeah, because
it's it's interesting that something like bitcoin could

602
00:48:58,159 --> 00:49:04,480
have caused the show to end.
That's compelling to me. Well, there

603
00:49:04,599 --> 00:49:10,119
was there was a raid the government
raided. Uh the Uh it's both the

604
00:49:10,239 --> 00:49:15,320
home and if I have this right, both the home and where they broadcast

605
00:49:15,480 --> 00:49:19,360
from of Free Talk Live. Um, and uh, yeah, it's a

606
00:49:19,400 --> 00:49:22,199
whole thing. Uh. They're called
the Bitcoin Six. I think it's Ian

607
00:49:22,280 --> 00:49:24,880
and five other people. And I
think Ian is the only one who did

608
00:49:24,960 --> 00:49:30,719
not choose to cooperate with the government
and is probably going to be at some

609
00:49:30,800 --> 00:49:35,679
point going to prison for it.
I mean he's out now and is able

610
00:49:35,719 --> 00:49:39,159
to do his show, but but
I think he is going to end up

611
00:49:39,679 --> 00:49:43,920
in prison too bad. I mean, I always I've always liked I know

612
00:49:43,960 --> 00:49:45,519
Ian, I've always liked Ian.
I mean I don't know him super well,

613
00:49:45,559 --> 00:49:50,480
but I always liked the guy.
But uh, wow, that was

614
00:49:50,840 --> 00:49:53,599
It does fly by. When John's
here. I was trying to trying to

615
00:49:53,679 --> 00:49:58,159
kind of get him to go with
the segment, but that can be a

616
00:49:58,360 --> 00:50:01,639
challenge. But we had fun.
His reaction to Chris Christie was very funny.

617
00:50:02,480 --> 00:50:08,760
That that's the best of all on
its all. Yes, And by

618
00:50:08,800 --> 00:50:12,760
the way, that's something that he
and my dad can n actually agree on

619
00:50:13,000 --> 00:50:19,159
because my father are also very very
shocked and disappointed with your choice of candidate.

620
00:50:19,280 --> 00:50:27,519
But uh, I'm this is this
is the summer disappointment, so so

621
00:50:27,639 --> 00:50:31,039
many people, I'm disappointing. Yeah, well that's all right, you know,

622
00:50:31,639 --> 00:50:36,440
what can you do? I mean, it's it's just part of as

623
00:50:36,559 --> 00:50:38,920
as you go through life and you
you get older, and you know you're

624
00:50:39,119 --> 00:50:43,039
you're gonna meet people who you know, you change and you evolve, and

625
00:50:43,440 --> 00:50:45,280
uh, there's always gonna be somebody
who's got a problem with it, or

626
00:50:45,559 --> 00:50:50,159
you know, doesn't like your your
choices or your opinions or whatever it is.

627
00:50:50,280 --> 00:50:55,760
You know. Apparently apparently one of
those at the top is Chris Christie.

628
00:50:57,440 --> 00:51:00,000
Yes, yes, well you know, I mean I have my own

629
00:51:00,119 --> 00:51:02,280
misgivings about him, but he's but
as far as uh, you know,

630
00:51:02,440 --> 00:51:06,159
speaking up and speaking the truth about
Trump, I mean, he's the only

631
00:51:06,280 --> 00:51:09,199
he's the only one doing it really
or really consistently, you know, Asa

632
00:51:09,320 --> 00:51:13,039
Hutchinson to some extent. But as
far as the rest of the candidates,

633
00:51:13,119 --> 00:51:21,320
they're all sort of still you know, holding back. Yeah, you don't

634
00:51:21,360 --> 00:51:25,079
want to upset the Apple card is
the mentality, and I think Chris Christie,

635
00:51:25,320 --> 00:51:29,280
out of all of them, has
the least to lose in that regard

636
00:51:29,480 --> 00:51:37,119
because he he was the only one
in twenty sixteen who really targeted Trump in

637
00:51:37,239 --> 00:51:40,760
the debates and everything. So they're
you know, he's probably like, you

638
00:51:40,840 --> 00:51:47,559
know what, I would even if
even if I were nice this go around,

639
00:51:47,880 --> 00:51:52,000
I wouldn't be asked for any cabinet
position or anything like that. So

640
00:51:53,320 --> 00:51:58,119
I'm just gonna go ahead and do
what I think is best to win,

641
00:51:58,719 --> 00:52:04,400
right, Yeah, So, I
mean Ran de santist I still say this

642
00:52:04,920 --> 00:52:12,239
that if it's down to him and
Trump, and I still think Trump would

643
00:52:12,320 --> 00:52:19,199
negotiate like a I guess uh,
a cabinet position for him for him to

644
00:52:19,280 --> 00:52:22,800
gracefully bow out. Oh yeah,
I mean it's not going to It's going

645
00:52:22,880 --> 00:52:25,960
to be Trump's going to be the
nominee. I still stand by that.

646
00:52:27,159 --> 00:52:30,559
It's it's De Santis has no threat
to him. Um something we didn't we

647
00:52:30,639 --> 00:52:35,679
didn't get a chance to get into. And maybe next week we can talk

648
00:52:35,719 --> 00:52:39,400
about it. But De Santis seems
to finally be shifting his campaign in the

649
00:52:39,480 --> 00:52:45,679
sense that he's um maybe trying to
be a little less antagonistic with mainstream media

650
00:52:45,840 --> 00:52:49,199
and trying to not play to the
echo chamber quite so much. I haven't

651
00:52:49,239 --> 00:52:53,239
had a chance to watch it yet, but apparently Jake Tapper interviewed him on

652
00:52:53,360 --> 00:52:58,599
CNN. Uh. DeSantis kind of
came out, came out of the bubble,

653
00:52:59,000 --> 00:53:02,280
out of the echo chamber for an
interview on CNN, and people are

654
00:53:02,320 --> 00:53:07,960
saying that m desantists can he actually
can sort of connect on that level and

655
00:53:08,159 --> 00:53:13,480
not come off as quite so exclusionary. So I'm gonna have to watch the

656
00:53:13,519 --> 00:53:17,239
interview just because I'm curious to see
how he did. But because usually what

657
00:53:17,360 --> 00:53:21,639
you get from De Santists, no
matter what the issue, whatever the subject

658
00:53:21,840 --> 00:53:23,559
is that you ask him about,
ask him his opinion, ask him what

659
00:53:23,599 --> 00:53:29,719
his solutions are, it always immediately
goes to wokeism and leftist ideology and all

660
00:53:29,800 --> 00:53:34,960
that instead of anything of substance.
But apparently he did well in this interview

661
00:53:35,039 --> 00:53:37,920
with Jake Tapper, So I'm gonna
have to check that out. Yeah,

662
00:53:37,000 --> 00:53:39,519
send me the link if you would, Matt, and I'll watch it as

663
00:53:39,599 --> 00:53:44,320
well. Yeah, absolutely, absolutely, all right, Eric, we should

664
00:53:44,400 --> 00:53:45,960
let you go because it's the top
of the hour, and I see musicians

665
00:53:46,119 --> 00:53:51,119
in the hallway, so we have
a great musical guest coming up. Wired

666
00:53:51,159 --> 00:53:52,800

us in the second hour. Do you

667
00:53:52,840 --> 00:53:57,880
want to give give this Friday's film
review a plug before you go? Yeah,

668
00:53:57,920 --> 00:54:01,639
I already talked about it. It
is steep in Spielberg's sci fi alien

669
00:54:01,800 --> 00:54:07,679
film Close Encounters of the Third Kind. Yes, um, very just an

670
00:54:07,719 --> 00:54:15,280
amazing film. Does have some shortcomings
which were briefly discussed, but very visually

671
00:54:15,559 --> 00:54:20,960
striking in landmark for its time and
what it was able to do. Yes,

672
00:54:21,239 --> 00:54:22,760
yes, absolutely, yeah, I
remember watching that when I was a

673
00:54:22,840 --> 00:54:25,559
kid, and h yeah, great, great film. So we look forward

674
00:54:25,599 --> 00:54:29,519
to that. And all right,
Eric, always a pleasure, Thank you

675
00:54:29,639 --> 00:54:32,960
my friend. We'll let you go
and we'll talk soon. Thank you very

727
01:02:02,079 --> 01:02:07,119
here Wired for Sound is in the
studio. Welcome everybody. How you doing

728
01:02:07,559 --> 01:02:10,639
good? Good? Let's see we
will start. Let's start with you at

729
01:02:10,679 --> 01:02:15,159
the news desk. If you want
to tell us who you are and what

730
01:02:15,320 --> 01:02:20,239
you do in the band. Him, my name's Jessica, and I play

731
01:02:20,320 --> 01:02:23,480
guitar and I'm a lead vocalist,
all right. And on the couch,

732
01:02:25,159 --> 01:02:30,039
I'm Megan. I played bass guitar
and I sing backup vocals. Okay,

733
01:02:30,000 --> 01:02:34,360
my name is Joe and I am
the drummer. All right, no vocals

734
01:02:34,400 --> 01:02:37,760
for you. Nope, I used
to, and then Megan joined the band,

735
01:02:37,840 --> 01:02:40,480
so now she took all my vocals
away. Yeah, now I understand,

736
01:02:40,599 --> 01:02:44,519
by the way, the reason I
chose that track, tell me that's

737
01:02:44,760 --> 01:02:46,360
I think that's my favorite. I
really like all the songs, but I

738
01:02:46,400 --> 01:02:50,800
think that's my favorite. Of what
you said me, it's really good.

739
01:02:50,880 --> 01:02:53,159
I find myself kind of the drum
part. I'm not a drummer, but

740
01:02:53,239 --> 01:02:59,639
I find myself tapping along really really
good stuff. And I don't know if

741
01:02:59,679 --> 01:03:01,559
you all know this, but you've
come up. Your name has come up

742
01:03:01,599 --> 01:03:06,800
on the show before, because um, it was a number of weeks ago.

743
01:03:07,360 --> 01:03:09,679
I had a Fredo and Axel from
Dank Sinatra We're on the show.

744
01:03:10,760 --> 01:03:15,039
Yeah yeah, And and Axel on
the show, he was wearing a Wired

745
01:03:15,119 --> 01:03:16,760
for Sound shirt. Somebody, you
know, because the show's also on Facebook,

746
01:03:16,800 --> 01:03:20,440
somebody was asking, you know what
what that was, and um,

747
01:03:20,960 --> 01:03:25,039
I was not aware of you guys
yet, and uh so Fredo's like,

748
01:03:25,440 --> 01:03:29,719
that's Wired for Sound man, and
Axel's like, yeah, yeah, wired

749
01:03:29,760 --> 01:03:32,440
for Sound. So uh they told
us about you, and so I think

750
01:03:32,480 --> 01:03:37,719
that's I think when Jenny booked you
for for Today, I think that's where

751
01:03:37,880 --> 01:03:42,440
we first learned of you. Was
was from those guys. Um so um

752
01:03:42,599 --> 01:03:45,679
great stuff. I mean, it's
it's kind of punk, but it's also

753
01:03:45,119 --> 01:03:47,840
I think it's got a little bit
of a grunge vibe. You know.

754
01:03:47,920 --> 01:03:52,360
The guitars are nice and heavy,
which I like. You know, um,

755
01:03:52,599 --> 01:03:54,360
sometimes with a lot of punk bands, the guitars aren't, you know.

756
01:03:54,440 --> 01:03:57,719
I mean, I like loud guitars, you know, I like,

757
01:03:58,079 --> 01:04:00,400
uh, I like when when it's
when the guitars are upfront. But also

758
01:04:00,480 --> 01:04:02,920
you know, this kind of a
little bit of a nineties grunge vibe too,

759
01:04:03,199 --> 01:04:06,639
and uh no, really really great. And Joe you were saying offer

760
01:04:08,280 --> 01:04:12,639
you were telling me that you record
did everything that you sent? Was it

761
01:04:12,760 --> 01:04:15,519
all recorded in in your living room? Yeah? I do all the engineering

762
01:04:15,599 --> 01:04:19,079
and we do all the all the
track recording in the living room, and

763
01:04:19,119 --> 01:04:21,719
then we send it off to a
friend of ours, Corey Holiday, and

764
01:04:21,800 --> 01:04:25,679
he does the mix and master.
Okay, have you've done it that way

765
01:04:25,719 --> 01:04:30,280
from the beginning with this band?
Not from the very beginning, but very

766
01:04:30,320 --> 01:04:33,280
close, you know. Only we
only tried one album in a studio and

767
01:04:33,440 --> 01:04:39,920
it really didn't work out because the
found in studios, the engineer in the

768
01:04:40,000 --> 01:04:44,239
studio wants to put his information in
and because it's his studio, it's hard

769
01:04:44,239 --> 01:04:46,920
to say no. So we made
our own studio. What do you mean,

770
01:04:47,000 --> 01:04:49,920
like the engineer was trying to Well, they have their opinions and they

771
01:04:49,960 --> 01:04:54,000
want to do like they pushed auto
tune on Jess, and Jess does not

772
01:04:54,119 --> 01:04:57,079
want her voice auto tune. We
said at the beginning no, And at

773
01:04:57,119 --> 01:04:58,800
the end of it he was like, oh, well, you know,

774
01:04:58,920 --> 01:05:01,360
you really should use auto tune.
It's a lot easier, and you know,

775
01:05:01,519 --> 01:05:04,119
basically wasn't giving us it, told
us we had to use it,

776
01:05:04,280 --> 01:05:08,599
and it's it's something we're very against
auto tuning. Jess's voice because she doesn't

777
01:05:08,599 --> 01:05:10,840
really need it, you know.
Yeah. Yeah, well i'd be weird

778
01:05:10,920 --> 01:05:15,159
too anyway for what you're doing,
you know it. That is why you

779
01:05:15,239 --> 01:05:21,400
cannot find that album online anywhere,
because we erased it in CD form in

780
01:05:21,440 --> 01:05:25,400
their living room. But that's it. Yeah yeah, and I think you

781
01:05:25,480 --> 01:05:29,440
took the last copy, so it's
basically non existent. Really yeah, did

782
01:05:29,480 --> 01:05:30,880
it? Did it sound really strange? Yeah? It was horrible. I

783
01:05:30,960 --> 01:05:35,280
feel horrible that it was just one
of those as soon as you hear the

784
01:05:35,400 --> 01:05:39,000
first part of the first song.
You know, it's a local band,

785
01:05:39,239 --> 01:05:43,639
and you know, I like to
have I don't like like that because it's

786
01:05:43,679 --> 01:05:45,960
not full enough, you know what
I mean, Like I just I like

787
01:05:45,320 --> 01:05:48,320
little bund Yeah yeah, yeah,
yeah. You don't want it to sound

788
01:05:48,360 --> 01:05:53,719
like a demo. You want it
to sound exactly. Yeah. Um did

789
01:05:53,920 --> 01:05:57,880
did those songs? Do those songs
live on from that album? Do you

790
01:05:57,960 --> 01:06:00,559
still or or did you end up
just nope? We don't play any of

791
01:06:00,639 --> 01:06:04,039
those songs any longer. Wow,
yeah, we kind of It's like,

792
01:06:04,320 --> 01:06:10,360
um, it was like our freshman
you know, we first formed with those

793
01:06:10,400 --> 01:06:15,079
songs, so it was very you
know, um, it seemed uh not

794
01:06:15,400 --> 01:06:19,280
as we hadn't really found ourselves.
Yeah, you know, it's a lot

795
01:06:19,280 --> 01:06:24,480
of experimentation. Yeah, yeah,
so we kind of outgrew it. Yeah,

796
01:06:24,719 --> 01:06:28,760
you know, and our stuff now
is a lot better. Okay,

797
01:06:28,920 --> 01:06:30,280
Yeah, what about it? I
mean in terms of the vibe and the

798
01:06:30,360 --> 01:06:34,079
style of the music, did that
did that also change or did the songs

799
01:06:34,119 --> 01:06:38,920
just get better? The song's got
better? Yeah, and you know,

800
01:06:39,159 --> 01:06:45,639
I different different instruments, um like
types of equipment, you know, pedals,

801
01:06:46,000 --> 01:06:49,079
you know, as far as that
sound, yeah, it changed.

802
01:06:49,159 --> 01:06:56,480
But also we grew um stronger together
playing and rehearsing. Yeah. So yeah,

803
01:06:56,559 --> 01:07:01,079
just finding our you know, our
own sound and style. So okay,

804
01:07:01,599 --> 01:07:04,559
has it always been the three of
you? No, No, I'm

805
01:07:04,599 --> 01:07:08,960
pretty new. Actually I joined about
a year and a half ago. Okay,

806
01:07:09,599 --> 01:07:13,760
okay, Um, were you in
a band before? Yeah, I've

807
01:07:13,800 --> 01:07:15,760
been in a few bands, and
that's actually how I first met Joe and

808
01:07:15,880 --> 01:07:19,559
Jess. Okay, I think both
the bands I was in at the time,

809
01:07:19,599 --> 01:07:25,559
I think would play with with you
guys. So then I met them

810
01:07:25,599 --> 01:07:30,119
and I knew them casually, and
then when their bassists left, they wanted

811
01:07:30,239 --> 01:07:32,760
they asked me if I would come
jam okay, and uh, I said

812
01:07:32,800 --> 01:07:35,960
I would, and here we are. What band were you in before our

813
01:07:35,960 --> 01:07:40,840
bands? Because what went? It's
funny when you walked in ire. Something

814
01:07:40,920 --> 01:07:43,840
familiar about you. I've I've seen
you in some somewhere. Yeah. I

815
01:07:43,920 --> 01:07:46,480
was in the band Marvel Prone for
about four years. Oh were wait?

816
01:07:46,559 --> 01:07:50,639
Were you here? Did I interview
you? No? Okay, okay,

817
01:07:50,639 --> 01:07:55,519
because I had Marvel Prone on the
show, But okay, I might have,

818
01:07:55,639 --> 01:07:58,880
but I might have seen you online
with them in a in a picture

819
01:07:58,920 --> 01:08:00,039
of something. Okay, yeah,
them might be where I know you're from.

820
01:08:00,599 --> 01:08:02,639
Four years? Wow. Yeah,
No, it was a really long

821
01:08:02,719 --> 01:08:06,079
time. It was about time.
I was about twenty yeah, until I'm

822
01:08:06,119 --> 01:08:11,599
twenty five now and round a year
ago, maybe a little under a year

823
01:08:11,639 --> 01:08:14,639
ago, so it was a long
time. Yeah yeah. Wow. So

824
01:08:14,760 --> 01:08:17,760
what happened to the previous bass player? He quit? Just quit? Yeah.

825
01:08:18,439 --> 01:08:23,960
Yeah. We had some health issues
and oh you know that's that's not

826
01:08:24,119 --> 01:08:26,720
fun. Yeah. Yeah, it
was sad to see him go. You

827
01:08:26,840 --> 01:08:30,560
know, he was with us for
four years. Oh wow. Okay,

828
01:08:30,800 --> 01:08:32,960
So it was me and Jess.
We met in another band, and um,

829
01:08:33,319 --> 01:08:36,880
we didn't like the direction that the
band that we met and was going,

830
01:08:38,039 --> 01:08:42,439
so we branched off from that and
made Wired for Sound. Oh okay,

831
01:08:42,560 --> 01:08:45,520
and then we picked up like six
months later, we picked up Justin,

832
01:08:45,600 --> 01:08:49,159
who was our old Bassis. He
had just quit his band and we'd

833
01:08:49,199 --> 01:08:51,920
seen him play a couple of times
and we said, hey, you're a

834
01:08:51,960 --> 01:08:55,239
good Bassis. It's a shame you're
in another band. And he says,

835
01:08:55,239 --> 01:08:59,119
well, actually I'm not anymore.
And so he started playing with us,

836
01:08:59,159 --> 01:09:00,520
and he was with us for four
years. He booked all our shows,

837
01:09:00,600 --> 01:09:03,399
he did all our social media.
Yeah, he was a big part of

838
01:09:03,439 --> 01:09:08,279
the band and um, and then
it just got to the point where it

839
01:09:08,479 --> 01:09:13,720
just our our level of commitment wasn't
for him anymore and um, and he

840
01:09:13,840 --> 01:09:19,239
said I'm done. Yeah yeah yeah, um wow. So now do you

841
01:09:19,319 --> 01:09:23,640
play out a lot every weekend?
Yeah? Yeah, that's good. That's

842
01:09:23,680 --> 01:09:27,239
good. And it's probably with a
three piece it's it's probably a little easier.

843
01:09:27,319 --> 01:09:30,159
Like I've been in bands where you
know, it's like four or five

844
01:09:30,239 --> 01:09:31,479
people, and sometimes it's hard when
you're trying to play out a lot and

845
01:09:31,520 --> 01:09:34,960
you've got to work around everybody's schedule. But obviously a smaller band, you

846
01:09:35,000 --> 01:09:39,159
know, with just three of you, it's probably not not as difficult,

847
01:09:39,199 --> 01:09:42,000
I would imagine. So you're able
to play out play out a lot.

848
01:09:42,159 --> 01:09:45,920
Yeah, Um, that's good.
Um do you I mean busy summer,

849
01:09:45,960 --> 01:09:48,640
then I would assume some are some
are the busiest time as far as live

850
01:09:48,680 --> 01:09:54,520
shows. Yeah, yeah, i'd
say so for sure. We've Yeah,

851
01:09:54,880 --> 01:09:59,840
we've been playing like almost every weekend. That's excellent. Yeah, we're booked

852
01:10:00,039 --> 01:10:03,680
straight through until September. Yeah.
Wow, yeah, very cool. Are

853
01:10:03,720 --> 01:10:06,239
there other bands in the area that
you kind of team up with? You

854
01:10:06,319 --> 01:10:10,520
know, sometimes bands find other bands
that they play a lot of shows with,

855
01:10:10,760 --> 01:10:14,479
and um, we go through little
spurts with certain bands, like we'll

856
01:10:14,520 --> 01:10:17,279
play like like I think we've got
like two or three shows coming up with

857
01:10:17,359 --> 01:10:19,520
Thanks and Now. Yeah, we've
played We've played with them a few other

858
01:10:19,600 --> 01:10:24,359
times too, so I think they
definitely are one Thanks and Atra. We're

859
01:10:24,399 --> 01:10:27,239
playing with Johnny Earthquake for a while. We had a lot of a pretty

860
01:10:27,239 --> 01:10:30,279
good stretch of shows where we were
playing with him. Yep, twenty five

861
01:10:30,359 --> 01:10:32,119
cent Habit. Yeah, we played
with them a few times. Um,

862
01:10:32,960 --> 01:10:36,720
Max foris we play with a lot. Yeah, they're out he's out of

863
01:10:38,159 --> 01:10:44,680
Boston. Okay, cool cool?
Um do you have I mean how long

864
01:10:44,720 --> 01:10:46,159
a set do you do because obviously, you know, the band has been

865
01:10:46,159 --> 01:10:49,159
around for a while. I mean
not you know, not necessarily this lineup,

866
01:10:49,199 --> 01:10:50,680
but the band's been around for a
while. Do you have a lot

867
01:10:50,760 --> 01:10:55,920
of a lot of tunes? We
have like forty really wow. So we

868
01:10:56,039 --> 01:10:59,119
have two big pieces of post a
board up on our wall and we have

869
01:10:59,239 --> 01:11:00,600
all our songs this dude, yeah, and some of them, like you

870
01:11:00,640 --> 01:11:03,239
know, the first ones we wrote
we don't play anymore, but they're still

871
01:11:03,319 --> 01:11:06,359
up there. And um, you
know it's like we play standard forty five

872
01:11:06,399 --> 01:11:10,840
minutes set on shows. Yeah,
but it's never enough because we never get

873
01:11:10,880 --> 01:11:15,119
to play all the songs. Yeah, when we practice, we practice like

874
01:11:15,680 --> 01:11:19,119
a lot of our songs, but
they don't always make They never all make

875
01:11:19,199 --> 01:11:23,039
the set ever, right, right. It's a good problem to have in

876
01:11:23,079 --> 01:11:25,279
a way, though, to have
so much music. You know. That's

877
01:11:25,399 --> 01:11:28,279
uh, that's really good. I
would say confidently we could cover a three

878
01:11:28,319 --> 01:11:30,359
hour set, no kidding, yeah, wow, with with all originals.

879
01:11:30,479 --> 01:11:36,039
Oh yeah, that's that's really good. That's really good. Um. Yeah,

880
01:11:36,079 --> 01:11:39,920
I noticed too some of your songs, I mean some of them are

881
01:11:40,560 --> 01:11:43,520
at least a couple of them that
we have here. Are are approaching five

882
01:11:43,600 --> 01:11:45,560
minutes, you know, between four
and a half to five minutes, which

883
01:11:45,600 --> 01:11:47,880
is kind of unusual for a band
in your genre. You know, the

884
01:11:48,199 --> 01:11:50,880
songs tend to be shorter. I
mean, have you always had songs that

885
01:11:51,000 --> 01:11:57,079
are are more than four minutes or
it seems like that's our kind that's our

886
01:11:57,199 --> 01:12:00,079
time for yeah. Yeah, yeah, it's like not even on this.

887
01:12:00,239 --> 01:12:02,439
It was a surprise for me when
we first started recording, Like I'm looking

888
01:12:02,439 --> 01:12:05,199
at the mixing board and our songs
are this long. I mean it doesn't

889
01:12:05,239 --> 01:12:09,279
feel like it's that long. But
yeah, when we started recording, we

890
01:12:09,399 --> 01:12:13,199
realized, like our songs are generally
over four minutes. Yeah, like that.

891
01:12:13,399 --> 01:12:16,439
We have a few that are like
three minutes, um, and it

892
01:12:16,560 --> 01:12:19,279
just seems like it's not long enough. It's like, wow, that was

893
01:12:19,359 --> 01:12:25,479
fast. Yeah yeah, no,
that's interesting. Um And like I said,

894
01:12:25,560 --> 01:12:28,239
for the genre that you're working in, it's unusual, which you know,

895
01:12:28,319 --> 01:12:30,880
it kind of helps you stand out
in a way. So that's that's

896
01:12:30,920 --> 01:12:32,439
cool. Now, do you get
out of m as far as shows,

897
01:12:32,600 --> 01:12:35,600
you get out of New Hampshire a
lot. You you play in Boston or

898
01:12:35,680 --> 01:12:40,159
where we play in Boston quite often
you're playing in Boston Saturday. Yeah,

899
01:12:40,199 --> 01:12:45,760
excellent. Oh no, I'm getting
very cool. That's awesome. Yeah.

900
01:12:45,800 --> 01:12:48,479
We played in Maine a lot.
Um yeah, so main Maine, New

901
01:12:48,520 --> 01:12:53,520
Hampshire and mass Yeah, generally where
and we want to get outside of there,

902
01:12:53,640 --> 01:12:56,439
but you know, with our jobs
in our lives, just trying to

903
01:12:56,520 --> 01:12:59,840
find two weeks where we can just
go across the country and play different clubs.

904
01:13:00,520 --> 01:13:03,960
It's coming coming. We'd like to
go to the West Coast and see

905
01:13:04,079 --> 01:13:09,560
how we fare out there, see
what they think about Yeah, no doubt,

906
01:13:09,680 --> 01:13:14,079
no doubt. Well let's uh,
let's play another track. Um uh,

907
01:13:14,319 --> 01:13:16,560
but I'll let you I'll let you
pick what what what should uh?

908
01:13:16,640 --> 01:13:19,039
What should we play? What do
you guys think? Well, off of

909
01:13:19,159 --> 01:13:24,359
Choke, this is our our album
called our EP called Choke. Okay,

910
01:13:25,000 --> 01:13:30,720
these are all from that. We
should play Wicked, Wicked Yeah all right,

911
01:13:30,760 --> 01:13:34,720
cool, Well we'll play that.
Um and I think this is one

912
01:13:34,720 --> 01:13:36,880
of the longer ones too, if
I remember correctly, so I think it

913
01:13:36,960 --> 01:13:41,439
is, yeah, which is cool. Yeah, all right, very cool.

914
01:13:41,640 --> 01:13:44,239
So this is uh, this is
Wicked. We have the band Wired

915
01:13:44,279 --> 01:13:46,920
for Sound with us live in studio. This is from their EP Choke.

926
01:16:57,119 --> 01:18:00,960
to be love. I love the
ending of that. That's really well done

927
01:18:01,000 --> 01:18:04,359
with it. That's really cool.
That is wicked. The band is wired

928
01:18:04,399 --> 01:18:08,720
for sound and we have Jess,
Megan and Joe all hear it with us

929
01:18:08,840 --> 01:18:12,840
in studio and what a great track. And you know, listening to that,

930
01:18:13,119 --> 01:18:16,960
it's um it's I mean, you
guys call yourselves as far as genre,

931
01:18:17,039 --> 01:18:25,000
you call yourselves punk, right,
yeah, okay, because I feel

932
01:18:25,039 --> 01:18:30,119
like it's um yeah, it's it's
pretty sophisticated. It's um. You know,

933
01:18:30,479 --> 01:18:35,279
when you first listen to it,
it sounds it sounds simple, It

934
01:18:35,439 --> 01:18:38,760
kind of sounds like it might be
a three chord thing. But then you

935
01:18:38,800 --> 01:18:43,079
get into the song and you realize, I mean, especially during that solo,

936
01:18:43,720 --> 01:18:47,760
you know, your bassline really comes
through because there's only you know,

937
01:18:47,880 --> 01:18:51,680
it's it's not like you've got multiple
guitars going right, so you can really

938
01:18:51,800 --> 01:18:55,800
hear your bass, which is a
really sophisticated bass line. Thank you,

939
01:18:56,119 --> 01:18:59,720
and and Jess, your solo is
really good, so you know, obviously

940
01:18:59,760 --> 01:19:02,319
you can really play you know,
it's not like it's not like musicians who

941
01:19:02,399 --> 01:19:04,720
are just kind of winging it,
like you know, you know what,

942
01:19:05,000 --> 01:19:11,199
So there's a sophistication there. And
and the double bass you don't usually hear

943
01:19:11,239 --> 01:19:15,840
that in punk or grune, so
that really elevates it too. That's unusual,

944
01:19:16,039 --> 01:19:19,000
and that gives it a little extra
heavy and that's really good. And

945
01:19:19,119 --> 01:19:23,479
that ending with what you do at
the end, at the ending of that

946
01:19:23,560 --> 01:19:26,600
song with the drums, it's just
amazing. So it's really kind of um,

947
01:19:26,960 --> 01:19:28,680
it's uh, you know what,
you know, if you want to

948
01:19:28,720 --> 01:19:31,800
call it punk or grunge or whatever
it's it's yeah, that's where you'd put

949
01:19:31,880 --> 01:19:35,199
it, but but it's more sophisticated
than that, and I think I think

950
01:19:35,239 --> 01:19:41,279
that's what makes it so good.
That's that's just my sort of my music

951
01:19:41,359 --> 01:19:45,319
critic. Well, thank you assessment
of it. Yeah, no, really,

952
01:19:45,399 --> 01:19:48,119
I mean the songs are really good. Did you did you do double

953
01:19:48,159 --> 01:19:51,399
bass from the beginning in this band
or is that something where you just kind

954
01:19:51,439 --> 01:19:55,119
of started to bring that in.
No, I've always played the double kick

955
01:19:55,159 --> 01:19:58,119
pedal. Yeah. It was one
of those things where it was like when

956
01:19:58,159 --> 01:20:00,399
I started playing with Jess, she
wasn't real big fan at first, and

957
01:20:00,439 --> 01:20:03,479
I really double bass is part of
me, and if you want me as

958
01:20:03,479 --> 01:20:06,560
your drummer, double bass will exist. Yeah. Yeah, you know you

959
01:20:06,640 --> 01:20:10,159
had to be talked into it.
Yes, yeah for sure. Um,

960
01:20:10,439 --> 01:20:15,800
I just I just was aiming toward
more of the punk grunge. Yeah,

961
01:20:15,960 --> 01:20:20,920
and I'm not necessarily metal right right, So I mean wind first sound is

962
01:20:21,000 --> 01:20:25,600
like a sprinkle of each of our
yeah tastes. Yeah. Yeah, so

963
01:20:25,840 --> 01:20:30,880
I'm more than nineties grunge type and
Joe's more metal. Yeah, so I'm

964
01:20:31,600 --> 01:20:35,880
in between. Yeah. I'm big
into metal, I always have been,

965
01:20:36,119 --> 01:20:42,520
but I'm also really big on nineties
music. Yeah music, So yeah,

966
01:20:42,800 --> 01:20:45,159
it's like a nice happy medium.
I feel like I've sort of like both

967
01:20:45,479 --> 01:20:49,119
yep, so like we just compromised, like said, yeah, all right,

968
01:20:49,159 --> 01:20:53,359
so maybe not through the whole song, right, let's not ruin it.

969
01:20:53,439 --> 01:20:56,239
Well, it's true. I mean
it's tasteful, you're you're restrained with

970
01:20:56,319 --> 01:20:58,680
it. It's not like you're yeah, you're not pounding the double bass the

971
01:20:58,720 --> 01:21:01,439
whole time. So it's yeah,
yeah, yeah that works. That was

972
01:21:01,520 --> 01:21:04,800
part of the trick was getting it
to be where it wasn't overwhelming the song,

973
01:21:05,119 --> 01:21:10,520
right. Yeah. So now I
find myself saying double based would sound

974
01:21:10,640 --> 01:21:15,039
really good. So it's kind of
become our thing. Yeah, yeah,

975
01:21:15,199 --> 01:21:17,119
that's cool. I'm sure, and
I'm sure other people notice too, Like

976
01:21:17,199 --> 01:21:19,840
when you're playing shows with other bands. I'm sure I'm sure people come up

977
01:21:20,000 --> 01:21:24,239
and say, wow, that's unusual
that but it works. It works,

978
01:21:24,520 --> 01:21:28,039
It works really well. What about
the songwriting do you all write together or

979
01:21:28,439 --> 01:21:30,880
it just does a lot? It
just like gives us a show and then

980
01:21:31,000 --> 01:21:34,720
we we kind of we do our
best at it. But most of the

981
01:21:34,800 --> 01:21:39,119
writing, that's really where it's at. Yeah, yeah, including lyrics.

982
01:21:39,319 --> 01:21:41,960
Did you write all the lyrics.
Yeah, Is there any kind of a

983
01:21:42,199 --> 01:21:46,239
theme or are there are there certain
common themes that come up a lot or

984
01:21:46,279 --> 01:21:51,439
what's your approach to the lyrics?
Um? I mostly write about um,

985
01:21:53,960 --> 01:21:58,520
you know, personal experiences, UM, whatever I'm going through at the moment

986
01:21:58,600 --> 01:22:02,119
at that time. Yeah, you
know, um, you know yeah,

987
01:22:02,680 --> 01:22:05,479
Yeah, I grew up a little
rough, so did you. Yeah,

988
01:22:05,640 --> 01:22:09,880
so a lot of it has some
of that in there too. Yeah.

989
01:22:10,079 --> 01:22:15,840
Yeah. Is I assume the band
is a great way to, you know,

990
01:22:15,880 --> 01:22:19,159
if you had a rough upbringing um
to kind of is it like therapy

991
01:22:19,199 --> 01:22:23,600
in a way, because because I
always say, you know, anything that

992
01:22:24,000 --> 01:22:26,520
whether it's a rough childhood or whatever
it is that you're going through in life,

993
01:22:26,560 --> 01:22:30,079
anything anything negative that's challenging, you
know, the best way to deal

994
01:22:30,119 --> 01:22:32,319
with it is to do something positive
with it by creating something. And I

995
01:22:32,399 --> 01:22:35,000
think that's what draws most people to
art, whatever kind of art it is,

996
01:22:35,079 --> 01:22:39,359
whether it's music or painting or whatever
it is. You know, it's

997
01:22:39,439 --> 01:22:43,880
it's a way to to take things
that you've experienced that might drag it down,

998
01:22:43,960 --> 01:22:45,239
but you don't let them drag you
down. Instead, you create.

999
01:22:45,840 --> 01:22:50,760
Yes, Yeah, I mean a
lot of you know, different problems I've

1000
01:22:50,840 --> 01:22:55,279
had, you know, music has
been my way of getting through it.

1001
01:22:55,600 --> 01:22:59,119
Yeah, yeah, for sure,
Yeah, no doubt. Um. And

1002
01:22:59,560 --> 01:23:02,680
so that EP is called Choke.
Yeah. Is this is this your first?

1003
01:23:02,840 --> 01:23:06,079
Um? Oh no, you did
the the Well there's the original album

1004
01:23:06,199 --> 01:23:13,680
right that that we don't Catharsis is
also on um on iTunes and okay,

1005
01:23:14,000 --> 01:23:16,399
Spotify and it's everywhere. It's wired
for Sound New Hampshire. Is how you

1006
01:23:16,479 --> 01:23:19,439
access it? Okay? Or wired
for Sound an h, I'm sorry?

1007
01:23:19,720 --> 01:23:24,680
And is that a full length or
is that? Well? Okay, So

1008
01:23:24,880 --> 01:23:29,359
Catharsis we did with justin our last
bass player okay, yeah. Um.

1009
01:23:30,439 --> 01:23:36,359
Originally that EP came about because we
signed up for the RPM Challenge. Ah,

1010
01:23:36,520 --> 01:23:40,000
yes, I've I've had a lot
of guests on the show. We've

1011
01:23:40,039 --> 01:23:44,079
done that. Yeah yeah, we
didn't actually complete it in time. So

1012
01:23:44,600 --> 01:23:47,479
um, as a result of us
writing so hard to try to do that,

1013
01:23:47,880 --> 01:23:51,520
Catharsis was born. Oh no kidding, Oh that's cool. That's cool.

1014
01:23:53,079 --> 01:23:57,520
Um. And why what goes into
the decision to do EPs? Because

1015
01:23:57,720 --> 01:24:00,159
you know, we live in a
time where you've got so many different options

1016
01:24:00,199 --> 01:24:02,640
because of the Internet. Like when
I was growing up, it was.

1017
01:24:03,039 --> 01:24:05,439
You know, most artists, you
know, they release an album or an

1018
01:24:05,479 --> 01:24:09,399
EP, but usually a full album. EPs were kind of rare, you

1019
01:24:09,439 --> 01:24:12,920
know, release an album and then
go on tour, and then release another

1020
01:24:12,960 --> 01:24:15,840
album eventually and go on tour.
It now you've got because of the Internet,

1021
01:24:15,880 --> 01:24:20,560
you've got all these different options.
Uh. Some some artists just do

1022
01:24:20,800 --> 01:24:24,640
singles, you know, or they'll
even put out a series of singles that

1023
01:24:24,720 --> 01:24:28,720
eventually become an EP or eventually become
a full album. But but they're kind

1024
01:24:28,760 --> 01:24:31,680
of feeding the machine as they go. Um at what goes into the decision

1025
01:24:31,800 --> 01:24:35,720
for the three of you to release
an EP. I feel like it is

1026
01:24:35,800 --> 01:24:40,359
just attentions, ye, short attention
attentions then in general, and it is

1027
01:24:41,720 --> 01:24:45,319
people don't, you know, no
one really listens to albums anymore. And

1028
01:24:45,399 --> 01:24:48,600
whether that that's a good or bad
thing. I mean, I like albums

1029
01:24:48,680 --> 01:24:53,000
personally, but I mean I don't
think everyone necessarily should have to listen to

1030
01:24:53,119 --> 01:24:56,359
a full album they didn't want to. Yeah, so it's almost like you

1031
01:24:56,439 --> 01:24:59,439
get to do an album without having
to do an album in a way,

1032
01:25:00,159 --> 01:25:03,479
you know what I mean. In
between Yeah, yeah, the first in

1033
01:25:03,600 --> 01:25:09,760
the beginning, it was because we
didn't have enough songs. Yeah, sure,

1034
01:25:09,880 --> 01:25:13,000
sure we were. We could barely
play a show in the beginning,

1035
01:25:13,119 --> 01:25:15,199
like we had to do like a
bunch of covers with it. But yeah,

1036
01:25:16,079 --> 01:25:20,279
and then from there it was just
you know, attention spans, like

1037
01:25:20,479 --> 01:25:25,960
nobody, nobody wants to put,
you know, listen to a full length

1038
01:25:26,000 --> 01:25:30,560
album anymore. It's just too too
much for them. Yeah. I think

1039
01:25:30,600 --> 01:25:34,079
some people probably do, but but
the majority in dwindling numbers. Yeah,

1040
01:25:34,680 --> 01:25:38,359
yeah, that's true. I mean
we're we're kind of spoiled in that sense

1041
01:25:38,439 --> 01:25:41,000
too. We live in an era
where you can just listen to anything you

1042
01:25:41,039 --> 01:25:44,279
want to at any time, and
uh, you know, if you are

1043
01:25:44,359 --> 01:25:45,680
listening to a full album, if
you get tired of it and you want

1044
01:25:45,680 --> 01:25:49,600
to listen to something else, you
can and it's very easy to access whatever.

1045
01:25:50,279 --> 01:25:56,560
Yea, we're recording now, and
we're kind of talking about possibly doing

1046
01:25:56,680 --> 01:26:00,319
one at a time and then making
it too, like an EP or something

1047
01:26:00,399 --> 01:26:04,319
like that. Yeah, so we
haven't really decided yet, but we're just

1048
01:26:04,399 --> 01:26:06,880
gonna try to get through the recording
first. Yeah. Yeah, if you

1049
01:26:06,960 --> 01:26:12,279
already started it, you've already started. We got one song completed, yeah,

1050
01:26:12,520 --> 01:26:17,199
and more than one, can't We
got broken and just nothing. Oh

1051
01:26:17,359 --> 01:26:21,199
yeah, right, yeah, okay, all right, technically we have three

1052
01:26:21,279 --> 01:26:26,720
recorded okay, and same process I
assume in the in the living room and

1053
01:26:26,800 --> 01:26:30,079
yeah yeah yeah, well we just
got recently got a vocal booth. Oh

1054
01:26:30,159 --> 01:26:31,279
cool. Yeah, we set it
right up in there. It's really cool

1055
01:26:31,279 --> 01:26:34,960
because it gives you privacy, you
know, it's nice. Yeah, yeah,

1056
01:26:35,159 --> 01:26:38,880
no doubt, no doubt. Well, let's uh yeah, let's hear

1057

01:34:35,239 --> 01:34:39,600
which means tonight is poetry Night.
They used to Industry Night, but Kenny

1099
01:34:39,680 --> 01:34:42,840
told me they changed it. Now
they're doing a poetry Night at the Hopnot

1100
01:34:43,159 --> 01:34:45,119
on Wednesday nights, so you can
check that out. And of course on

1101
01:34:45,239 --> 01:34:49,920
Thursday night, say a trivia hosted
by the great Broderick Lang. But I'm

1102
01:34:49,960 --> 01:34:56,560
mentioning Tomorrow Night today because that is
something that you want to register for because

1103
01:34:56,560 --> 01:34:59,319
those spots fill up very quickly the
day before. So if you want to

1104
01:34:59,359 --> 01:35:02,600
do trivia Tomorrow night starting at seven
pm at the Hopknot, go ahead and

1105
01:35:02,680 --> 01:35:06,279
give a call today or you can
reach out on social media, but I

1106
01:35:06,319 --> 01:35:11,279
suggest you just call and reserve your
spot because Trivia Knight is a very very

1107
01:35:11,319 --> 01:35:15,760
popular feature there at the Hopknot and
those spots do fill up quickly. And

1108
01:35:15,960 --> 01:35:18,119

is to give us a call at

six O seven. And by the way,

1118
01:35:54,439 --> 01:35:58,399
so y'all were talking while the song
was on about you've got a show

1119
01:35:58,439 --> 01:36:00,479
coming up at the Shaft Skying.
We should make sure people know about that.

1120
01:36:01,199 --> 01:36:06,720
Yeah, we are playing the chef
Skene August twenty six. We'll be

1121
01:36:06,840 --> 01:36:15,039
playing with two Boston bands UM Andrew
Queen and Gretchen Shay in the middle eight.

1122
01:36:15,439 --> 01:36:19,680
Okay, okay, both there female
fronted bands UM, and they are

1123
01:36:19,760 --> 01:36:26,479
great, excellent, excellent. UM. Now we were talking before the song

1124
01:36:26,560 --> 01:36:30,359
about you're working on some some new
music that you're recording. Do you have

1125
01:36:30,399 --> 01:36:32,239
any kind of any eta on that. When when that's going to be out

1126
01:36:32,319 --> 01:36:35,680
or probably probably a while, right, it's pretty early in the process,

1127
01:36:35,720 --> 01:36:39,119
I would imagine. Yeah, I
mean, if we had to shoot for

1128
01:36:39,199 --> 01:36:42,439
a planet, would be probably by
the end of winter. Okay, Okay,

1129
01:36:42,479 --> 01:36:44,720
so it'll be a while. How
long is um, how long has

1130
01:36:44,800 --> 01:36:47,760
joke been out? Twenty twenty?
I think it came out. No,

1131
01:36:47,840 --> 01:36:51,399
it was not that it was it
was twenty It was like twenty twenty two

1132
01:36:51,439 --> 01:36:57,399
winter. Yeah. Oh okay,
Yeah, so that one's still fairly recent.

1133
01:36:57,680 --> 01:37:00,319
Okay, Um, Joe, I
wonder if you experience, uh,

1134
01:37:00,640 --> 01:37:03,359
because you were off by two years, I wonder, I wonder, I

1135
01:37:03,399 --> 01:37:08,000
wonder if you experienced that sort of
COVID time distortion that I experienced and that

1136
01:37:08,079 --> 01:37:11,840
a lot of people seem to experience, where it seems like like things seem

1137
01:37:11,960 --> 01:37:15,239
like they were either longer ago than
they actually were or not as long ago

1138
01:37:15,279 --> 01:37:18,560
as they actually were. I feel
like the pandemic just it like disrupted the

1139
01:37:18,600 --> 01:37:23,520
whole h spacetime continuum. Yeah,
I mean everything just went on pause,

1140
01:37:23,720 --> 01:37:26,319
you know. Yeah, it's crazy. So yeah, to mention, we

1141
01:37:26,439 --> 01:37:31,479
had like we went through like two
bass players during that recording and you know,

1142
01:37:31,720 --> 01:37:34,399
yeah, it didn't come out till
Megan was in the band. Yeah,

1143
01:37:34,479 --> 01:37:36,520
yeah, that's true, that's true. Yeah, all right. Oh

1144
01:37:36,560 --> 01:37:40,520
so you had two bass players before
Megan. Well, I mean they weren't.

1145
01:37:41,159 --> 01:37:44,199
They were like, oh, I
got you, I got you.

1146
01:37:45,199 --> 01:37:49,159
Um now what was so what was
the audition process like or did was there

1147
01:37:49,159 --> 01:37:54,079
an audition process or Megan did you
just did you just join or did you

1148
01:37:54,159 --> 01:37:57,840
have to audition or I mean it
wasn't really formal like that. I kind

1149
01:37:57,880 --> 01:38:00,479
of just came over on the premise
to like am yeah yeah, And they

1150
01:38:00,520 --> 01:38:03,920
were like, so, yeah,
would you want to like join the band

1151
01:38:04,000 --> 01:38:06,960
if Sean I don't know, because
at the time, I think it was

1152
01:38:06,960 --> 01:38:10,399
still sort of up in the air
about whether or not Sean was going to

1153
01:38:10,439 --> 01:38:15,079
be like a full member quote unquote
or just a fill in. Yeah.

1154
01:38:15,159 --> 01:38:16,920
Yeah. So basically I kind of
joined on the premise that like, when

1155
01:38:16,960 --> 01:38:20,960
Sean couldn't do something, I would
do it. Then they just liked me

1156
01:38:21,079 --> 01:38:27,520
better. I mean, she's just
awesome. She's a great bass player.

1157
01:38:28,039 --> 01:38:30,520
Yeah, you know, we just
like her. She's awesome. Well,

1158
01:38:30,560 --> 01:38:36,279
and she does backing vocals, right
yeah, well yeah, yeah, and

1159
01:38:36,640 --> 01:38:41,920
everybody says it who you know knows
us and stuff like they're like just with

1160
01:38:42,199 --> 01:38:46,359
Megan and the harmonies. It's just
it kicks us up another notch. Yeah.

1161
01:38:46,520 --> 01:38:49,880
Yeah, Um, are there any
live performances online? Like? If

1162
01:38:49,920 --> 01:38:54,159
I go on YouTube, do you
have anything up there or any videos?

1163
01:38:54,439 --> 01:38:58,479
Everybody's making videos? Yeah, you
should go on Instagram for stuff like that.

1164
01:38:58,800 --> 01:39:02,680
Okay, Facebook, I am just
I don't keep up on YouTube as

1165
01:39:02,800 --> 01:39:06,319
much, but I'm gonna work on
it. We do have a professionally done

1166
01:39:06,399 --> 01:39:10,920
music video for No Way Out on
YouTube. Oh okay, okay, yeah

1167
01:39:11,079 --> 01:39:14,840
cool, it's funny. I was
talking with somebody on the show recently,

1168
01:39:14,840 --> 01:39:15,880
I forget who. It was,
one of our musical guests, and we

1169
01:39:15,960 --> 01:39:20,600
were talking about how some people have
a misconception that nobody makes videos anymore because

1170
01:39:20,600 --> 01:39:25,960
it's been so long since MTV really
played videos, and and it's it's actually

1171
01:39:26,079 --> 01:39:30,560
the opposite, like there's more music
videos than ever because you've got you know,

1172
01:39:30,600 --> 01:39:32,039
if you don't have a music video
on YouTube, but it's almost like

1173
01:39:32,119 --> 01:39:34,159
people look at you funny, like, what, you haven't made a video

1174
01:39:34,279 --> 01:39:38,479
yet? Well, to be fair, the means of making a video pretty

1175
01:39:38,560 --> 01:39:42,720
much at everyone's disposal. All the
time, now true. Yeah, yeah,

1176
01:39:42,800 --> 01:39:45,039
So it's like it doesn't surprise me. I feel like content is you

1177
01:39:45,079 --> 01:39:47,760
know, people talk about content and
content generation and stuff like that. Like

1178
01:39:47,840 --> 01:39:50,920
it makes total sense to me that
there is a you know, a plethora

1179
01:39:51,079 --> 01:39:55,399
of videos and other media available online
just because I mean we all, you

1180
01:39:55,479 --> 01:39:58,600
know, our phones can do most
of it. Oh yeah, yeah,

1181
01:39:58,760 --> 01:40:00,399
so yeah, I think it's it's
kind of cool in a way. I

1182
01:40:00,479 --> 01:40:04,319
feel like it opens up a whole
new realm of like possibility for you know,

1183
01:40:04,439 --> 01:40:08,920
music and media and stuff like that. Oh. Absolutely absolutely. And

1184
01:40:09,079 --> 01:40:13,720
what's so the video that you do
have, it's what's the song No Way

1185
01:40:13,760 --> 01:40:15,720
Out? Is that? What if
I'm looking for it? Yeah? That

1186
01:40:15,840 --> 01:40:18,119
yeah, No Way Out? It's
it's the song off Catharsis. Okay,

1187
01:40:18,279 --> 01:40:21,560
okay? Cool? Is that now? Is that something you you made with

1188
01:40:21,920 --> 01:40:26,520
someone who's did you do it yourselves? Or was that because you said it

1189
01:40:26,600 --> 01:40:30,800
was a professional lead one video or
I mean it wasn't like super professional.

1190
01:40:30,920 --> 01:40:34,680
It's um mister Goodbar's studios. Yes, yes, know him, well,

1191
01:40:34,720 --> 01:40:40,079
he's been on the show multiple times. Actually, friend Timothy um did it

1192
01:40:40,159 --> 01:40:43,039
for us, Timothy Thorpe. Yeah, yeah, very cool, very cool.

1193
01:40:43,359 --> 01:40:48,880
Yeah, he's Um. Oh,
Shane Ballen was on recently and because

1194
01:40:49,279 --> 01:40:53,399
mister Goodbars said produced, do you
guys, do you know Shane Ballen,

1195
01:40:54,640 --> 01:40:58,239
local singer songwriter. Y Yeah,
yeah, he just he just played solo

1196
01:40:58,319 --> 01:41:01,520
acoustic. But yeah, we really
good, such a great voice. Um.

1197
01:41:01,640 --> 01:41:05,479
But yeah, mister Goodbars, I
produced at least one, maybe more,

1198
01:41:05,520 --> 01:41:09,439
of some of the tracks of his
that we've recently played on the show.

1199
01:41:09,800 --> 01:41:12,439
So it sounds like he's been doing
a lot. Um used to be

1200
01:41:12,479 --> 01:41:15,560
in sepsis. Of course, I
don't think he still lives. Yeah,

1201
01:41:15,720 --> 01:41:18,479
yeah, I don't know what happened
there. They lost like most of them.

1202
01:41:18,680 --> 01:41:21,920
Yeah yeah, yeah, well they
they've reformed. They've got a whole

1203
01:41:21,960 --> 01:41:26,600
new lineup now and actually they just
released a video for their song Bleed Lines,

1204
01:41:27,399 --> 01:41:30,000
which is really good. So yeah, they're they're doing a lot of

1205
01:41:30,039 --> 01:41:33,359
stuff. But yeah, they really
went through a whole quite a quite a

1206
01:41:33,479 --> 01:41:39,119
change, Yeah for sure. Oh. Uh, Nate Pejari or Pajarry,

the strand it's a battle of the

1218
01:42:19,560 --> 01:42:23,720
bands. I don't really want to
battle, thanks, and because we're friends,

1219
01:42:23,800 --> 01:42:26,720
but yeah, that's the way it's
gotta be. Yeah, you going

1220
01:42:26,800 --> 01:42:30,159
down. We could take the clubs
off for a night. I didn't know

1221
01:42:30,239 --> 01:42:34,600
that was still a thing. Battle
of the band. It's every once in

1222
01:42:34,640 --> 01:42:38,279
a while there there's one, you
know, like, um, what was

1223
01:42:38,319 --> 01:42:42,039
it last year? We got invited
to a Battle of the bands and yeah

1224
01:42:42,119 --> 01:42:47,560
in Portland it was all like it. I think they just wanted to see

1225
01:42:47,640 --> 01:42:51,199
us play. Oh wow. Yeah, it was like we were one rock

1226
01:42:51,279 --> 01:42:55,960
band in a group of just kind
of jam bands. And it was like

1227
01:42:56,079 --> 01:42:59,640
we just did not fit and I
was like, what were we doing here?

1228
01:43:00,079 --> 01:43:05,079
Wowde It was extremely awkward. Yeah, it really was. Because the

1229
01:43:05,279 --> 01:43:10,119
prize was a spot in a like
a jam band festival. Yeah, you

1230
01:43:10,159 --> 01:43:14,319
know, yeah, we didn't get
it. We didn't get Well, it's

1231
01:43:14,399 --> 01:43:16,880
nice nice to be invited though,
I guess. Yeah. The venue was

1232
01:43:16,920 --> 01:43:20,279
cool. The way they did the
floor was like, um, it was

1233
01:43:20,359 --> 01:43:23,920
all colorful and it was a it
was a cool, cool floor and a

1234
01:43:24,000 --> 01:43:27,279
nice venue. Yeah. Yeah,
it's fun to stand out though sometimes,

1235
01:43:27,399 --> 01:43:30,960
right. Yeah, when when when
you're in a situation like that, Nate

1236
01:43:30,039 --> 01:43:32,399
says, wait, it's a battle
of the bands. We didn't even know

1237
01:43:32,520 --> 01:43:43,319
this. We didn't know until recently
either prepare for battle. Um, how

1238
01:43:44,000 --> 01:43:47,359
how far away of you guys toured
in terms of playing out like you do?

1239
01:43:47,479 --> 01:43:49,960
Get out of me Hampshire obviously,
as we talked about earlier, you

1240
01:43:49,960 --> 01:43:51,960
go to Boston, you go to
Maine. Have you gone further than that

1241
01:43:53,359 --> 01:43:57,039
or I think the first two one
was Kingston, Mass Okay, Yeah,

1242
01:43:57,199 --> 01:44:00,600
and then we've been pretty far up
north and Maymi and JESSI play in Poland

1243
01:44:00,680 --> 01:44:04,039
before, but that's you know,
not any space. We went up by

1244
01:44:04,119 --> 01:44:09,079
bang or oh that's on there yeah. Oh and then form that Charlie Oo's

1245
01:44:09,119 --> 01:44:14,840
world famous, we played out there? Oh wow yeah yeah. Um do

1246
01:44:14,920 --> 01:44:17,720
you plan to do a lot of
that going forward or getting out? And

1247
01:44:18,640 --> 01:44:24,880
it's interesting because, um, there's
a lot of bands who are actually kind

1248
01:44:24,920 --> 01:44:28,199
of doing the opposite where they're sort
of limiting how much they play out.

1249
01:44:28,279 --> 01:44:30,039
And I think a lot of it
just has to do with the cost.

1250
01:44:30,159 --> 01:44:31,079
You know, gas is a lot
more expensive than it used to be and

1251
01:44:31,159 --> 01:44:35,840
whatnot. But um, but I
also think too a pre pandemic, it

1252
01:44:35,960 --> 01:44:40,520
was like everybody just wanted to play
out as much as they could. And

1253
01:44:40,680 --> 01:44:44,520
the attitude's about that with a lot
of musicians is kind of shifted. And

1254
01:44:44,600 --> 01:44:45,680
again, I think part of it
has to do with expense. It's even

1255
01:44:45,800 --> 01:44:49,920
like like this major bands now that
are saying, you know, we're not

1256
01:44:50,119 --> 01:44:55,960
we're not touring as extensively because it's
become cost prohibitive. But it's it's to

1257
01:44:56,079 --> 01:44:59,319
me, it's just it's such a
different world because like when I was active,

1258
01:44:59,319 --> 01:45:00,640
I used to playing a lot of
bands and I always wanted to just

1259
01:45:00,880 --> 01:45:03,239
play like every weekend. I just
wanted to play out as much. You

1260
01:45:03,279 --> 01:45:05,520
know, I was at one point. I was in three bands at one

1261
01:45:05,560 --> 01:45:10,520
time, and I just wanted to
because all I wanted to do was play.

1262
01:45:10,760 --> 01:45:13,560
But and it sounds like that's that's
kind of the approach that the three

1263
01:45:13,600 --> 01:45:15,079
of you were taking. You know, just play as much as you can,

1264
01:45:15,560 --> 01:45:19,520
school play whatever. It's definitely a
labor of love. We'll just we'll

1265
01:45:19,600 --> 01:45:23,680
play anywhere anytime. Yeah, yeah, it's awesome. I love it.

1266
01:45:24,720 --> 01:45:28,119
You're doing any Um well you said, uh, you've got dank fest You

1267
01:45:28,159 --> 01:45:32,159
do any outdoor festivals or have you
or or oh yeah, cool, cool,

1268
01:45:32,479 --> 01:45:36,600
those are fun. Yeah that live
laugh love coming up that oh in

1269
01:45:38,640 --> 01:45:42,359
Lebanon, Lebanon, Maine and Charlie
Sue. Oh okay, I know three

1270
01:45:42,439 --> 01:45:45,680
day weekend. Oh that's very cool. Yeah yeah, excellent, excellent.

1271
01:45:46,159 --> 01:45:50,239
Um you ever opened for any uh
national acts coming through the area. Have

1272
01:45:50,319 --> 01:45:56,039
you done that yet? Or one
time at Club Jewel they were a national

1273
01:45:56,119 --> 01:45:59,399
tour he was a national touring guy. I forget his name, but um,

1274
01:46:00,399 --> 01:46:03,760
nobody, I mean nobody big that
you would like recognize there. Yeah,

1275
01:46:03,800 --> 01:46:08,279
yeah, yeah, yeah, anybody, Yeah, anybody on the list

1276
01:46:08,359 --> 01:46:11,359
as kind of a goal that you've
all talked about. Anybody that you want

1277
01:46:11,399 --> 01:46:15,279
to open for. I mean it
would be cool to like open I think

1278
01:46:15,319 --> 01:46:19,159
would fit good with like local h
yeah you oh yeah you would. I've

1279
01:46:19,239 --> 01:46:23,800
I've seen them live, yeah,
really really good. Yeah? Do they

1280
01:46:24,000 --> 01:46:28,000
are they still touring now? Though? Are they active? I mean because

1281
01:46:28,000 --> 01:46:30,199
when I touring was Soul Asylum for
a while where they yeah that the show.

1282
01:46:30,279 --> 01:46:33,479
We had tickets to the show and
it got canceled and a little while

1283
01:46:33,600 --> 01:46:38,119
now. Oh okay, I saw
them in Boston like ten years ago.

1284
01:46:38,840 --> 01:46:42,199
Uh, they were really good.
It wasn't the same drummer though, different

1285
01:46:42,279 --> 01:46:45,000
drummer. Yeah, they didn't have
a different drummer when we saw them a

1286
01:46:45,039 --> 01:46:46,359
few years ago. Yeah. Yeah, but really good. But yeah,

1287
01:46:46,399 --> 01:46:49,359
you would fit really well. I
really want to play with I really want

1288
01:46:49,399 --> 01:46:53,319
to play with Scissor Fight, which
is not They're not so much. They're

1289
01:46:53,359 --> 01:46:56,359
more like Boston Big, you know, not really like world renowned. But

1290
01:46:56,840 --> 01:47:02,159
I'd love Scissor Fight and Scissor but
play with the y I'd love to play

1291
01:47:02,199 --> 01:47:08,079
with the Deaf Tones. Yeah,
yeah, yeah, no doubt. Yeah,

1292
01:47:08,319 --> 01:47:12,159
yeah, Sissor Fight too. They
only um, they only occasionally yeah

1293
01:47:12,239 --> 01:47:15,560
reunite right, they don't really play
out as much anymore. Yeah, for

1294
01:47:15,720 --> 01:47:18,000
sure, Like, yeah, I've
only seen I've seen him like once or

1295
01:47:18,039 --> 01:47:20,800
twice, not even that many times
because they don't really play that much.

1296
01:47:20,920 --> 01:47:26,199
Yeah. Yeah, but the bass
player of Sissori Fight, my um my

1297
01:47:26,319 --> 01:47:29,000
boyfriend is friends with and he lives
in the same town as him. Yeah,

1298
01:47:29,159 --> 01:47:30,079
like he kind of knows him,
so then I kind of know them

1299
01:47:30,119 --> 01:47:33,520

hi, and I'm like, oh,
