00:01:12,640 --> 00:01:18,719
Etc. Today is Tuesday, October
seventeen, twenty twenty three, so nice

10
00:01:18,719 --> 00:01:21,879
to have you all with me.
We have a great musical guest coming up

11
00:01:22,040 --> 00:01:26,040
in the second hour, Best Not
Broken. They've sent me some studio tracks

12
00:01:26,040 --> 00:01:29,840
that we're going to play. They've
been on the show once before a while

13
00:01:29,840 --> 00:01:32,599
ago, so I'm really looking forward
to having them back and playing some of

14
00:01:32,640 --> 00:01:34,480
the newer stuff. The songs that
we open with today. We opened with

15
00:01:36,799 --> 00:01:40,920
Don't Be a Stranger by Fox and
the Flamingos, a great song. Jenny

16
00:01:40,959 --> 00:01:42,959
was commenting in the chat rom too, how much she loves that song,

17
00:01:42,000 --> 00:01:46,760
ell of it too. And then
we also played something from Eons Encoded called

18
00:01:46,879 --> 00:01:49,439
Fragmented. We're Gonna Save We're Gonna
Save the best not broken Tunes for the

19
00:01:49,480 --> 00:01:55,959
second hour. But they're a great
band from Boston, so looking forward to

20
00:01:56,159 --> 00:01:59,359
seeing them again, So that'll be
coming up in the second hour. On

21
00:01:59,400 --> 00:02:01,200
the first hour, we'll probably talk
about what's going on in the House of

22
00:02:01,200 --> 00:02:05,879
Representatives there if you haven't seen the
news. They're trying to select a speaker.

23
00:02:06,319 --> 00:02:13,680
But Jim Jordan, he actually cannot
seem to get well. Actually he

24
00:02:13,759 --> 00:02:17,280
got fewer votes than expected on that
first round of voting. There will probably

25
00:02:17,280 --> 00:02:22,479
be another round at some point today, maybe even during the first hour that

26
00:02:22,520 --> 00:02:24,000
we're on the air today, and
we'll be able to follow up on that.

27
00:02:24,159 --> 00:02:28,439
But so we'll see, we might
get into some of that today.

28
00:02:28,439 --> 00:02:30,800
But if you'd like to get in
with anything you would like to discuss,

29
00:02:31,199 --> 00:02:36,280
the studio line is open six oh

32
00:02:43,719 --> 00:02:47,479

me Matt at mattconnorton dot com, and

33
00:02:47,520 --> 00:02:52,560
of course you can interact andend opine
in the Facebook live chat. But the

34
00:02:52,599 --> 00:02:55,319
best thing to do so that we
can hear and enjoy your DELSA tones is

35
00:02:55,360 --> 00:02:59,400
to give us a call at six
O three two five oh six oh seven

36
00:02:59,599 --> 00:03:04,560

Oh. By the way, if you

37
00:03:04,599 --> 00:03:08,199
missed yesterday's show, please please,
you've got to check it out. Speaking

38
00:03:08,240 --> 00:03:13,439
of musical guests, yesterday, Jenny
and I had on the show Quincy Lord

39
00:03:13,599 --> 00:03:17,360
from the band Sunset Electric, and
he brought his acoustic guitar, played a

40
00:03:17,360 --> 00:03:21,719
couple songs live for us. The
studio tracks are amazing from the band,

41
00:03:21,759 --> 00:03:24,520
but he also play played right there
on the couch. It's so good,

42
00:03:25,120 --> 00:03:32,400
so good. He easily vaulted into
probably maybe definitely top ten, maybe top

43
00:03:32,439 --> 00:03:37,159
five as far as live musical guests
on the show. He was so good.

44
00:03:37,520 --> 00:03:39,560
So check that out. Quincy Lord
of the band a Sunset Electric,

45
00:03:39,639 --> 00:03:45,159
and we will have in the future
because we were talking after the show off

46
00:03:45,199 --> 00:03:50,400
air about he'd like to get the
full band in and and do a couple

47
00:03:50,439 --> 00:03:53,479
of songs, a few songs live
in studio with the whole band, which

48
00:03:53,479 --> 00:03:55,560
would be really cool. But yeah, so you should definitely check that out.

49
00:03:55,840 --> 00:04:00,000
We'll say hell lod everybody in the
Facebook live chat. Facebook has given

50
00:04:00,120 --> 00:04:01,439
me some trouble today. Same thing
it's been newing to Jenny. I share

51
00:04:01,479 --> 00:04:04,680
the show out and I get a
thing that says we've removed your content due

52
00:04:04,719 --> 00:04:10,000
to spam. Spam. It's my
show. I'm sharing out my I can't

53
00:04:10,000 --> 00:04:13,560
share out my own show on Facebook
with that. Facebook is well, you

54
00:04:13,599 --> 00:04:19,279
know it's Facebook, Damn you Zuckerberg. I don't know. Miriam Bannish shoins

55
00:04:19,360 --> 00:04:21,879
us in the Facebook live ed and
says happy Tuesday, Hello, Miriam.

56
00:04:23,319 --> 00:04:26,720
Jenny is in there, of course, and says shillom peeps. Also,

57
00:04:27,000 --> 00:04:30,920
jayfed from the Great State of vermonts
as good afternoon everyone, And that's all

58
00:04:30,920 --> 00:04:32,600
I can see so far in the
Facebook live chat, which is unusual.

59
00:04:32,600 --> 00:04:39,439
But again Facebook is being very facebookish. So that's fine. But let's get

60
00:04:39,439 --> 00:04:44,839
an update on what is happening here. Actually, let me refresh this page.

61
00:04:44,920 --> 00:04:47,759
The Hill dot com they have live
updates. So today the House voted

62
00:04:48,240 --> 00:04:55,199
on Jim Jordan, representative from the
Great State of Ohio, to be a

63
00:04:55,319 --> 00:05:00,519
Speaker of the House and didn't pan
out. Not I don't know that he

64
00:05:00,639 --> 00:05:03,199
was expecting it to or anyone was
expecting it to on the first vote,

65
00:05:03,480 --> 00:05:08,639
But it appears this is going to
be a tougher climb than expected. I

66
00:05:08,680 --> 00:05:11,720
don't know if it's going to go
fifteen rounds like it did for Kevin McCarthy.

67
00:05:12,199 --> 00:05:19,920
I suspect that it won't take that
many, because there's going to be

68
00:05:20,079 --> 00:05:28,439
here's my prediction. And by the
way, I will fully and unreservedly acknowledge

69
00:05:28,439 --> 00:05:31,079
that I've been wrong in many of
my predictions when it comes to this.

70
00:05:32,279 --> 00:05:34,959
I thought Steve Scalise was going to
be the speaker. I really did.

71
00:05:35,199 --> 00:05:43,639
But then again, back in January, when Kevin McCartney was trying to become

72
00:05:43,680 --> 00:05:47,600
speaker and they did go the fifteen
rounds, you know, I thought,

73
00:05:48,000 --> 00:05:53,399
I thought he was going to have
to give up and Scalise would be next

74
00:05:53,399 --> 00:05:58,360
one up. And then McCarthy.
Did I say McCarthy or McCartney. I

75
00:05:58,360 --> 00:06:01,240
think I said McCartney, McCarthy.
I'm thinking about Paul McCartney. I've got

76
00:06:01,279 --> 00:06:03,759
the Beatles on I heard a Beatles
song a little while ago. I've got

77
00:06:03,800 --> 00:06:08,639
that on my mind. You say
you want a revolution. Nobody really wants

78
00:06:08,639 --> 00:06:11,240
a revolution. People talk about it, you know, you'll often hear like

79
00:06:11,279 --> 00:06:15,000
the militant types who like to hang
out in the woods with their guns,

80
00:06:15,399 --> 00:06:17,319
they'll talk about how there's going to
be a revolution. There's no revolution coming.

81
00:06:17,360 --> 00:06:21,040
I'm sorry, it's been canceled.
It will not be televised because it's

82
00:06:21,120 --> 00:06:26,399
literally not going to happen. It
won't even be available for streaming. But

83
00:06:26,759 --> 00:06:34,120
that's another issue. So I I
think that what might begin to happen is

84
00:06:34,959 --> 00:06:40,680
some of these House Republicans who have
very strong reservations about Jim Jordan. You

85
00:06:40,720 --> 00:06:43,720
know, the fatigue is going to
set in and the reality that look,

86
00:06:43,879 --> 00:06:47,399
either we either get him in there
or what's you know, what's plan what's

87
00:06:47,439 --> 00:06:53,759
our plan B? Here? All
I guess, well McCartney was plan A,

88
00:06:53,879 --> 00:06:56,480
so I guess Jim Jordan has planned
B. So they might be saying,

89
00:06:56,480 --> 00:07:00,199
what's our plan c uh and uh, we don't have one, do

90
00:07:00,279 --> 00:07:05,160
we. So I think that some
of these moderate Republicans, and again there

91
00:07:05,160 --> 00:07:13,639
were more than I was expecting that
voted against Jim Jordan, I think I

92
00:07:13,680 --> 00:07:20,040
think there might be enough of them
who will out of probably a combination of

93
00:07:20,079 --> 00:07:29,639
pragmatism and just desperation will give in
and UH and vote for Jim Jordan and

94
00:07:29,639 --> 00:07:34,920
and he will become speaker. Jay
fed says, I'm voting for Trump with

95
00:07:35,040 --> 00:07:41,480
Jim Jordan as VP. Well there
you go. Well, Jim Jordan is

96
00:07:41,680 --> 00:07:47,759
Trump's pick for UH for the speaker. That's who Trump endorsed. I was

97
00:07:48,480 --> 00:07:51,439
as as this is all unfolding today, and again, we'll keep an eye

98
00:07:51,480 --> 00:07:55,480
on this because they might I don't
know when they're going to do the second

99
00:07:55,560 --> 00:07:59,519
vote. If you remember back in
January when it was Kevin McCartney, they

100
00:07:59,639 --> 00:08:01,759
you know, they would vote and
he would lose, and then they would

101
00:08:01,759 --> 00:08:05,480
have some more meetings, you know, behind closed doors, and then they

102
00:08:05,519 --> 00:08:09,160
would vote again and he would lose
again, you know, and this went

103
00:08:09,199 --> 00:08:18,079
on and on until he finally became
speaker. It was Scott I think it

104
00:08:18,079 --> 00:08:22,720
was Scott Robinson who made a comment
in the chat room. I was see

105
00:08:22,759 --> 00:08:28,920
yesterday or last week. It all
runs together, but he had made a

106
00:08:28,959 --> 00:08:31,519
comment in the chat room about how
I think it was at the end of

107
00:08:31,600 --> 00:08:35,559
last week, about how, you
know, he wishes that these moderate Republicans

108
00:08:35,559 --> 00:08:43,000
in the House, you know,
many of them Republicans who are in districts

109
00:08:43,240 --> 00:08:46,720
that were carried by Joe Biden in
twenty twenty. So they they don't want

110
00:08:46,720 --> 00:08:52,600
to, you know, they're reluctant
to get on the Jim Jordan bandwagon because

111
00:08:52,720 --> 00:08:58,440
Jim Jordan is a House Freedom Caucus
guy, very conservative. But Scott had

112
00:08:58,480 --> 00:09:01,840
made a comment, it's too bad
some of these moderate Republicans don't stand up

113
00:09:01,320 --> 00:09:07,080
to the conservative House Freedom Caccus people, uh, the same way that the

114
00:09:07,159 --> 00:09:09,600
conservative House Freedom Coccus people like Matt
Gates. You know, they're they're willing

115
00:09:09,679 --> 00:09:15,279
to uh throw their weight around and
and and get their way. Why don't

116
00:09:15,279 --> 00:09:20,879
the moderates stand up to them more? Because there's more moderates and there are

117
00:09:20,919 --> 00:09:24,399
these House Freedom Caccus people, And
I was reflecting on that. I thought

118
00:09:24,399 --> 00:09:28,120
it was an interesting observation, and
I think in the moment my first reaction

119
00:09:28,240 --> 00:09:33,639
to what Scott's comment was was I
said, well, they're just not used

120
00:09:33,639 --> 00:09:39,200
to doing that. They just don't
generally speaking, Uh, just from what

121
00:09:39,240 --> 00:09:41,600
I've observed as an outsider, because
I've never been a member of the Republican

122
00:09:41,639 --> 00:09:50,120
Party, I don't think moderate Republicans
particularly want to uh stand up to uh,

123
00:09:50,159 --> 00:09:52,799
you know, the House Freedom Caucus
people or the you know, the

124
00:09:52,840 --> 00:09:56,600
more conservative Republicans. I think they
just they they don't like to do that.

125
00:09:58,480 --> 00:10:03,039
And I I was reflecting on it
today and I was thinking about,

126
00:10:03,080 --> 00:10:07,120
you know, part of the problem. For see, it's different in the

127
00:10:07,159 --> 00:10:11,279
Senate for a few reasons, but
one of them is and of course,

128
00:10:11,360 --> 00:10:16,919
you know senators, Republican senators are
just in a broad sense more likely to

129
00:10:16,919 --> 00:10:22,879
be more moderate. But in the
Senate, you've got a six year term.

130
00:10:22,320 --> 00:10:26,919
So if you are, say you're
two years into a six year term

131
00:10:28,440 --> 00:10:31,799
as a Senate Republican, well,
you can take some risks and you can

132
00:10:31,840 --> 00:10:37,279
push back on some people who you
think are behaving in a reckless and irresponsible

133
00:10:37,279 --> 00:10:43,039
way and probably not pay any long
term price for it. But if you're

134
00:10:43,039 --> 00:10:48,120
in the House, you're up for
reelection every two years, So that means

135
00:10:48,639 --> 00:10:50,840
I mean, think of the pressure
of that. Not that I'm making any

136
00:10:50,840 --> 00:10:52,960
excuses for them, I'm just saying, think of the pressure of that.

137
00:10:54,000 --> 00:10:56,279
Think of how vulnerable that makes you
in terms of your political career, in

138
00:10:56,360 --> 00:11:03,679
terms of holding office. So if
you are a moderate House Republican and you

139
00:11:05,639 --> 00:11:13,559
start really standing up to criticizing,
pushing back on some of these House Freedom

140
00:11:13,600 --> 00:11:18,720
Caucus people, you put yourself in
jeopardy pretty quickly politically, because what will

141
00:11:18,840 --> 00:11:26,279
happen is you'll have people like people
in conservative media, like, for example,

142
00:11:26,320 --> 00:11:31,159
Sean Hannity, who apparently both on
camera and from what I've been reading

143
00:11:31,360 --> 00:11:35,320
behind the scenes, is really pushing
for Jim Jordan to be Speaker of the

144
00:11:35,360 --> 00:11:41,000
House. But you'll have that conservative
media machine, You'll have Fox News and

145
00:11:41,080 --> 00:11:50,000
Newsmax and conservative political talk radio.
They will all then do whatever they can

146
00:11:50,159 --> 00:11:56,200
to destroy you if you're a moderate
House Republican going up against the conservative wing

147
00:11:56,240 --> 00:12:01,799
of the party, which is to
whom the conservative media caters too largely right,

148
00:12:03,519 --> 00:12:09,080
so they're all they'll just they'll wreck
you. So what the problem for

149
00:12:09,159 --> 00:12:13,399
these moderate House Republicans? And again
we're talking really about Republicans who again,

150
00:12:13,600 --> 00:12:18,440
they're going to be on the ballot
in twenty four no matter what they're they're

151
00:12:18,799 --> 00:12:20,960
running every two years. I mean, not all of them at once,

152
00:12:20,039 --> 00:12:22,759
but necessarily But well, well,
actually, I think so, right,

153
00:12:22,759 --> 00:12:26,960
are do any of them have odd
numbers odd numbered years? How does that

154
00:12:28,000 --> 00:12:30,080
work in the House. I don't
think so. I think it's all so.

155
00:12:30,080 --> 00:12:33,600
I think it would all be twenty
four. I think I think there's

156
00:12:33,600 --> 00:12:41,559
just some governorships across the country that
have odd numbered elections for whatever reason.

157
00:12:41,960 --> 00:12:48,480
But so you're always you're effectively from
the moment you're elected, your reelection campaign

158
00:12:48,720 --> 00:12:52,399
has started in effect, right,
So if you cross the wrong people,

159
00:12:54,039 --> 00:12:58,399
that media machine will crush you and
you will get primaried. It was during

160
00:12:58,720 --> 00:13:03,759
the during the Tea Party, the
rise of the Tea Party movement. And

161
00:13:03,840 --> 00:13:09,720
this is the movement that eventually evolved
into or devolved into, depending on your

162
00:13:09,720 --> 00:13:13,600
point of view, I would tend
to say devolved personally, but that that

163
00:13:13,720 --> 00:13:18,559
became the House Freedom Caucus. They
started as the Tea Partiers during the Obama

164
00:13:18,600 --> 00:13:28,320
administration, and that was it was
during that era. It was the first

165
00:13:28,360 --> 00:13:33,080
time I can remember the word primary
being used as a verb. Uh,

166
00:13:33,639 --> 00:13:39,200
you know, they're going to try
to primary this Republican because they're not they're

167
00:13:39,240 --> 00:13:46,279
not conservative enough. They're voting for
spending bills that we don't like. We

168
00:13:46,320 --> 00:13:50,799
want to we want to have government
shutdowns, we want to default on our

169
00:13:50,840 --> 00:13:54,320
debt. I mean a lot of
these very uh you know, conservative tea

170
00:13:54,360 --> 00:13:58,279
partiers. That was that was where
that started. Really, that was never

171
00:13:58,679 --> 00:14:03,519
a thing before the idea that it
would actually be awesome and cool for the

172
00:14:03,600 --> 00:14:07,519
United States for the first time in
our nation's history to default on our debt

173
00:14:07,639 --> 00:14:11,679
instead of raising the debt limit on
schedule. At least, that's the first

174
00:14:11,679 --> 00:14:15,080
time I can ever remember hearing about
that, where you know, there were

175
00:14:15,200 --> 00:14:16,879
some who thought, yeah, that's
a great idea, let's just do it,

176
00:14:18,000 --> 00:14:24,039
you know, which of course would
be catastrophic. But uh, that

177
00:14:24,159 --> 00:14:26,759
was where I first started hearing the
word primary be used as a verb.

178
00:14:26,879 --> 00:14:31,360
We're going to primary you. That's
what they did to Eric Canter, for

179
00:14:31,440 --> 00:14:39,519
example. And it was also during
during that era where John Bahner, remember

180
00:14:39,600 --> 00:14:45,159
him, Republican Speaker of the House. He he said, you know,

181
00:14:45,559 --> 00:14:48,080
he got tired of having the sort
of damocles over his head all the time,

182
00:14:48,639 --> 00:14:52,840
similar to what Kevin McCartney just went
through. Bayner didn't want to even

183
00:14:54,320 --> 00:14:56,360
he didn't like being threatened, He
didn't like feeling that way. He decided,

184
00:14:56,399 --> 00:14:58,960
you know what, at a certain
point, I'm gonna move on.

185
00:15:00,159 --> 00:15:03,240
Same with Paul Ryan. Paul Ryan
a little bit of a different scenario,

186
00:15:03,279 --> 00:15:11,080
but the idea being that that was
where we first started seeing those people exert

187
00:15:11,159 --> 00:15:18,000
a lot of control, and it
became a threat because prior to that,

188
00:15:18,240 --> 00:15:26,000
and still generally speaking, incumbency is
a tremendous advantage. If you are an

189
00:15:26,000 --> 00:15:31,000
incumbent, having somebody come along in
primary you is highly unlikely, but it's

190
00:15:31,039 --> 00:15:35,320
not as highly unlikely as it once
was. And we saw examples of that

191
00:15:35,399 --> 00:15:39,240
during the Tea Party days that era. I don't mean the Tea I don't

192
00:15:39,279 --> 00:15:48,240
mean going back to going back a
couple of centuries. I mean the Tea

193
00:15:48,279 --> 00:15:54,399
Party Republicans during the Obama administration who
rose up and started to take control.

194
00:15:58,120 --> 00:16:03,519
But so you've got these You've got
these moderate Republicans who are in swing districts,

195
00:16:04,559 --> 00:16:11,039
who know if they forcefully come out
against McCarthy, I'm sorry, come

196
00:16:11,039 --> 00:16:18,039
out against Jim Jordan, you know, they could very quickly have the weight

197
00:16:18,240 --> 00:16:23,799
of the conservative media machine on them
and crushing them and making sure that they

198
00:16:23,840 --> 00:16:29,120
don't even get Not only will they
not win reelection, they won't even get

199
00:16:29,159 --> 00:16:30,799
to the primary. They won't get
through the primary. They'll be replaced.

200
00:16:33,120 --> 00:16:37,919
But then they've got to walk They
know they have to walk that line because

201
00:16:37,120 --> 00:16:41,360
they don't want to be primaried.
But when you get to the general election,

202
00:16:41,440 --> 00:16:44,799
Again, if you're in a swing
district, if you're in a district

203
00:16:45,159 --> 00:16:48,960
that was carried by Biden in twenty
twenty, you know, you don't want

204
00:16:49,000 --> 00:16:52,840
to You don't want your opponent to
be able to point to you, the

205
00:16:53,360 --> 00:16:56,320
Democrat, to be able to point
to you and say, you know,

206
00:16:56,600 --> 00:17:02,159
look at this. They supported Jim
Jordan. Really, they ousted Kevin McCartney

207
00:17:02,159 --> 00:17:04,920
for Jim Jordan. This is this
is is this who you want? No,

208
00:17:06,359 --> 00:17:07,160
and they're gonna lose. I mean, I think that. I think

209
00:17:07,160 --> 00:17:11,160
the Republicans, this, this whole
thing is such a mess to begin with.

210
00:17:11,680 --> 00:17:15,559
I'm pretty sure they're gonna lose the
House in twenty twenty four. I

211
00:17:15,640 --> 00:17:22,559
cannot imagine how they hold on at
their majority. Roni Favero from the Great

212
00:17:22,559 --> 00:17:26,039
State of California joins us in the
Chatterman says Cali here, as well as

213
00:17:26,200 --> 00:17:30,640
Hans Smith from the band Sepsis.
Hans says, the one thing that we're

214
00:17:30,680 --> 00:17:34,319
spending way too much money on is
military. No wonder our debt ceilings so

215
00:17:34,519 --> 00:17:44,640
high. Yeah, I mean,
that's that's a difficult subject because there there

216
00:17:44,640 --> 00:17:45,759
are those who would say we spend
way too much. I mean, we

217
00:17:45,799 --> 00:17:51,519
do spend a tremendous amount, and
I'm sure a lot of that does get

218
00:17:51,519 --> 00:17:56,200
wasted. On the other hand,
I do agree with certainly. You know,

219
00:17:56,240 --> 00:17:59,640
we do need to maintain we don't
want to put our guard down ever,

220
00:17:59,839 --> 00:18:07,079
and also I do support helping Israel
and helping Ukraine. I think,

221
00:18:07,279 --> 00:18:11,079
by the way, although I think
the aid to Ukraine is effectively over,

222
00:18:11,720 --> 00:18:18,480
I think we are about to abandon
Ukraine. I don't see. You know,

223
00:18:21,000 --> 00:18:25,799
McCartney was all over the place on
that when he was speaker. Remember

224
00:18:25,920 --> 00:18:30,839
all these, all the fiscal bills, they start in the House. That's

225
00:18:30,880 --> 00:18:33,960
who controls the money. So that's
why this is so important, and that's

226
00:18:33,960 --> 00:18:40,680
why our government is effectively paralyzed to
a large extent as long as there's no

227
00:18:40,720 --> 00:18:42,960
House Speaker. And I don't know
when there's going to be a House Speaker,

228
00:18:44,720 --> 00:18:48,960
because I don't know when Jim Jordan
will actually be able to get to

229
00:18:48,000 --> 00:18:52,759
two seventeen, which is what he
needs to become speaker. And then when

230
00:18:52,839 --> 00:18:57,240
Jim Jordan is speaker, assuming that
he does become speaker, this is a

231
00:18:57,279 --> 00:19:06,599
guy who always votes against continuing resolutions
when it comes to the to the budget,

232
00:19:07,759 --> 00:19:17,640
and I think will absolutely take us
into default. And what are we

233
00:19:17,759 --> 00:19:21,200
seventeen days away? No, it's
November seventeenth, that's the date. That's

234
00:19:21,200 --> 00:19:23,799
where I'm getting seventeen, I think, right, So we're still yeah,

235
00:19:23,839 --> 00:19:26,799
because it was the last cr was
for forty five days. Okay, so

236
00:19:26,920 --> 00:19:32,400
yeah we're still So we're a little
under. Yeah, we're a month actually

237
00:19:32,400 --> 00:19:37,640
exactly a month away. I'm terrible
at math, forgive me. I I

238
00:19:37,720 --> 00:19:44,119
you know, Jim Jordan, I
think will have no problem doing a government

239
00:19:44,160 --> 00:19:48,680
shutdown. I don't think Jim Jordan
when the when it comes time to deal

240
00:19:48,720 --> 00:19:53,119
with the debt ceiling again, I
don't think Jim Jordan will have any problem

241
00:19:53,400 --> 00:20:00,839
with risking default for the first time
in our country's history. I think Jim

242
00:20:00,920 --> 00:20:03,200
Jordan is dangerous. I used to
say that about the Tea Party guys,

243
00:20:03,200 --> 00:20:07,519
and I say that about the House
Freedom Caucus people too. If you think,

244
00:20:10,680 --> 00:20:15,039
if you actually think and will try
to and will endeavor to make happen

245
00:20:17,880 --> 00:20:25,480
a full default, for the United
States to default on our full faith and

246
00:20:25,519 --> 00:20:32,480
credit for the first time in our
country's history, are you are far too

247
00:20:32,519 --> 00:20:36,559
dangerous to be trusted with any degree
of power. I mean, if you

248
00:20:36,640 --> 00:20:41,079
actually think default is a good idea. You know, I wouldn't trust you

249
00:20:41,119 --> 00:20:45,480
to be a shift manager at a
fast food restaurant, let alone be voting

250
00:20:45,559 --> 00:20:52,519
on things in the House of Representatives. That's my feeling. It's a I

251
00:20:52,559 --> 00:20:57,960
mean back when what was it twenty
eleven, which is when I really started

252
00:20:57,960 --> 00:21:02,240
to learn about exactly how the debt
limit works, or the debt ceiling,

253
00:21:02,319 --> 00:21:06,920
or the fiscal cliff, whatever term
those various terms people use. I was

254
00:21:07,440 --> 00:21:14,200
kind of shocked when I began to
realize how many of these people don't seem

255
00:21:14,200 --> 00:21:18,359
to even understand. When I say
these I mean people voting on this people

256
00:21:18,359 --> 00:21:22,359
in the United States Congress, how
many of them, as evidenced from the

257
00:21:22,480 --> 00:21:26,720
conversations I would see them having as
they would make the rounds on the Sunday

258
00:21:26,720 --> 00:21:29,720
morning talk shows, some of them, as far as I could tell,

259
00:21:30,880 --> 00:21:37,000
literally did not understand the difference between
the debt limit and the actual budget itself.

260
00:21:37,720 --> 00:21:40,039
I mean, it was shocking,
and it's like, Wow, these

261
00:21:40,079 --> 00:21:48,039
people could really take us all into
global economic armageddon because they're literally just not

262
00:21:48,279 --> 00:21:53,680
smart enough not to. It's really
scary when you think about it that way.

263
00:21:55,279 --> 00:21:57,920
Scott Robinson says, yeah, but
Matt, what about the Democrats.

264
00:21:57,960 --> 00:22:03,759
What about them, I'll tell you
about the Democrats, Scott, I am.

265
00:22:03,599 --> 00:22:08,559
I continue to be even more so
now when I look at what we're

266
00:22:08,599 --> 00:22:12,880
getting into with either we have a
speaker, well, let me put it

267
00:22:12,920 --> 00:22:17,559
this way. Either we don't have
a speaker indefinitely, or we do have

268
00:22:17,599 --> 00:22:22,640
a speaker and it's Jim Jordan and
he figures out how to wreck the economy

269
00:22:22,680 --> 00:22:26,960
in short order through a government shutdown
and then eventually a default down the line.

270
00:22:27,920 --> 00:22:33,920
I do continue to blame the Democrats
for not coming to the rescue of

271
00:22:33,000 --> 00:22:37,920
Kevin McCartney. They should have.
Again, as I have been saying on

272
00:22:37,960 --> 00:22:41,519
the show, I understand on the
merits. If you look at the individual

273
00:22:41,640 --> 00:22:47,680
arguments for why they didn't, why
they felt no obligation to, why they

274
00:22:47,759 --> 00:22:49,519
just didn't want to, why they
don't like him, why they don't trust

275
00:22:49,599 --> 00:22:53,799
him, all of it, it's
hard to argue against the merits of their

276
00:22:53,920 --> 00:23:00,839
reasons for not doing it. I
understand that, just like I would understand.

277
00:23:00,960 --> 00:23:04,160
Look, if you saw someone drowning, I would hope you would go

278
00:23:04,200 --> 00:23:10,759
and help them. But if you
saw someone drowning, I would forgive you

279
00:23:11,880 --> 00:23:15,000
if if you hesitated for maybe just
a half second, you should still go

280
00:23:15,039 --> 00:23:18,240
save You should save them no matter
what. Of course, if you see

281
00:23:18,240 --> 00:23:21,920
someone drowning. But if you see
someone drowning and as their drown as their

282
00:23:21,960 --> 00:23:26,400
head is about to go underwater,
they're flipping you off and yelling at you

283
00:23:26,440 --> 00:23:29,559
about how much they hate you,
I can see why you might just take

284
00:23:29,559 --> 00:23:32,279
a half second or a millisecond and
say, should I really save them?

285
00:23:32,319 --> 00:23:34,759
Okay, yeah, I probably should. Still That's how I feel about this,

286
00:23:36,079 --> 00:23:38,799
because here's the problem. So the
Democrats, you know, their arguments

287
00:23:38,839 --> 00:23:42,680
again, it's hard to argue on
the merits. They didn't trust Kevin McCarthy

288
00:23:44,480 --> 00:23:48,519
not trustworthy, which a lot of
Republicans will also say about him, you

289
00:23:48,519 --> 00:23:56,359
know, doesn't keep his word,
and uh, you know it gave far

290
00:23:56,440 --> 00:24:00,400
too much away to the House freedom, coccus people, et cetera. Also,

291
00:24:00,000 --> 00:24:04,839
right before his removal, he's on
he's making the rounds on the Sunday

292
00:24:04,880 --> 00:24:10,000
morning talk shows. Not not talking
about maybe there's a way to work together

293
00:24:10,079 --> 00:24:12,160
bipartisan lee to keep him in a
speakership or anything like that. Instead,

294
00:24:12,279 --> 00:24:15,559
he's just going on the Sunday morning
talk shows blaming the Democrats for everything,

295
00:24:15,599 --> 00:24:21,480
trashing the Democrats, blaming the Democrats
for us almost, you know, having

296
00:24:21,480 --> 00:24:23,559
a government shut down, this and
that. So I get it. He's

297
00:24:23,640 --> 00:24:30,960
drowning. You could go rescue him. But as he's as his head is

298
00:24:30,000 --> 00:24:34,440
going underwater, he's flipping you off
and telling you that he hates you and

299
00:24:34,440 --> 00:24:40,279
that he wishes you were the one
drowning instead of him. Doesn't doesn't exactly

300
00:24:40,319 --> 00:24:44,640
motivate you to throw him a life
jacket, does it. So I get

301
00:24:44,720 --> 00:24:48,319
that, I get it. You
know, it's like I heard someone say

302
00:24:48,599 --> 00:24:53,559
why. I heard a Democrat say
why Why is it our responsibility to save

303
00:24:55,039 --> 00:24:59,599
the Republican House speaker? Why?
Why would it ever be our responsibility?

304
00:25:00,079 --> 00:25:03,960
You know, this is a problem
in the Republican conference. Why is it

305
00:25:03,359 --> 00:25:07,240
our responsibility to help them sort it
out? This is their problem, they

306
00:25:07,279 --> 00:25:12,400
should fix it there, dysfunctional and
so on. Agreed, I agree on

307
00:25:12,440 --> 00:25:22,160
all counts. The only problem is
now we're all really pretty screwed. As

308
00:25:22,200 --> 00:25:26,960
far as I can tell, it's
the devil you know versus the devil you

309
00:25:26,119 --> 00:25:33,200
know. Also in this case,
because as much as you know, I

310
00:25:33,240 --> 00:25:36,119
don't have a lot of nice things
to say about Kevin McCartney, although he

311
00:25:36,160 --> 00:25:41,039
did win some grudging respect from me. Also, because you know when he

312
00:25:41,119 --> 00:25:42,759
used to talk about how he didn't
give up, he never gives up.

313
00:25:42,839 --> 00:25:45,079
Well, yeah, I mean he
went through fifteen rounds of votes to get

314
00:25:45,119 --> 00:25:48,240
the speakership. When I and a
lot of other people thought he'd never be

315
00:25:48,279 --> 00:25:52,880
able to get it done, he
got it done. Okay. He promised

316
00:25:52,920 --> 00:25:56,160
we would not default on our debt. I really thought we were on the

317
00:25:56,240 --> 00:25:57,519
edge of it. I thought Biden
was going to have to try to invoke

318
00:25:57,559 --> 00:26:00,480
the fourteenth Amendment and hope for the
best. Nope, they came to a

319
00:26:00,519 --> 00:26:03,920
deal much too close, much,
much too close to the edge, but

320
00:26:03,920 --> 00:26:07,920
they got it done. He said
we would not default. It was unacceptable.

321
00:26:08,559 --> 00:26:11,079
Oh I'm sorry. Onto the next
thing in my mind, but I

322
00:26:11,079 --> 00:26:15,079
forgot to change the words. He
said, we would not shut down,

323
00:26:15,279 --> 00:26:18,759
not have a government shut down not
acceptable. A government shutdown isn't as anywhere

324
00:26:18,839 --> 00:26:22,519
near as catastrophic is an actual default, of course, but it still cost

325
00:26:22,559 --> 00:26:26,200
the economy trillions of dollars. It's
still horrendous. He said, we're not

326
00:26:26,200 --> 00:26:30,480
gonna let that happen. Kept his
word, didn't let it happen. Okay,

327
00:26:30,359 --> 00:26:34,000
So he did win some a little
bit of respect from me in some

328
00:26:34,079 --> 00:26:40,039
ways. But at the same time, you know, I have a lot

329
00:26:40,079 --> 00:26:41,920
of criticisms of him as well,
but let's put those aside for a second.

330
00:26:45,160 --> 00:26:48,599
If the Democrats had saved him,
and I'm not saying they shouldn't have

331
00:26:48,640 --> 00:26:51,119
done it for free, but I
would have liked to have seen something,

332
00:26:51,200 --> 00:26:53,200
some sort of an olive branch.
Again, it's hard to extend an olive

333
00:26:53,200 --> 00:26:56,920
branch to someone who doesn't want it
right. It's hard to extend an olive

334
00:26:56,960 --> 00:27:02,720
branch to someone who's telling you they
hate you. So, you know,

335
00:27:03,200 --> 00:27:11,200
so McCartney did himself no favors.
He was probably just exhausted by the whole

336
00:27:11,240 --> 00:27:18,599
thing. Uh, But I do
wish that something had been done to keep

337
00:27:18,680 --> 00:27:25,839
McCartney because if I got to pick
between McCartney and Jim Jordan, I'm going

338
00:27:25,880 --> 00:27:29,759
with Kevin McCartney. If I got
to pick between Kevin McCartney and Steve Scalise,

339
00:27:29,799 --> 00:27:32,960
I'm going with Kevin McCartney. If
I got to pick between Steve Scalise

340
00:27:33,000 --> 00:27:38,279
and Jim Jordan, I'm going with
Steve Scalise. But now we have the

341
00:27:38,359 --> 00:27:45,839
worst possible option of the options that
seem to be available. You know,

342
00:27:47,440 --> 00:27:51,240
either he becomes speaker, or again
I don't know what plans c is.

343
00:27:52,240 --> 00:27:57,279
We just don't have a speaker and
our government is just paralyzed, I guess.

344
00:27:57,559 --> 00:28:00,839
So it's one of these two options
right now, as far as I

345
00:28:00,880 --> 00:28:07,240
can tell, Either we have a
horrendous choice for speaker, become speaker,

346
00:28:07,920 --> 00:28:12,920
or our government remains paralyzed. Either
way is really I don't know that people

347
00:28:12,960 --> 00:28:18,480
realize how bad this is. This
is really really bad for the country.

348
00:28:18,160 --> 00:28:23,200
So I will criticize the Democrats on
that front. Again. I understand why

349
00:28:23,200 --> 00:28:26,599
they didn't save McCartney, but damn
it, they should have. For the

350
00:28:26,640 --> 00:28:30,519
good of the country, they should
have. And by the way they could

351
00:28:30,559 --> 00:28:38,000
have, they probably felt that there
was some sort of, you know,

352
00:28:38,680 --> 00:28:42,680
a political risk to doing so why
would you because then you know they have

353
00:28:42,759 --> 00:28:48,680
to explain to constituents, you know, individual House members on the Democratic side,

354
00:28:49,119 --> 00:28:56,359
why why would you vote for a
Republican for House speaker? Why wouldn't

355
00:28:56,359 --> 00:29:04,799
you vote for Hakeem Jeffreys And Democrats
generally are horrible at messaging, They're not

356
00:29:04,880 --> 00:29:11,359
good at explaining things. So it
would be even though it's a very difficult

357
00:29:11,519 --> 00:29:12,960
concept to understand. See, here's
how I would explain it. If I

358
00:29:12,960 --> 00:29:17,039
were in that position, here's what
I would say. I would say I

359
00:29:17,119 --> 00:29:21,920
voted for Kevin McCartney because whomever he
would have been replaced with would have been

360
00:29:22,000 --> 00:29:26,200
much worse. And as much as
I don't approve of the job that Kevin

361
00:29:26,240 --> 00:29:30,759
McCartney has done, I thought he
was the best option under the circumstances.

362
00:29:32,079 --> 00:29:34,960
We are in the minority. So
we're never going to get Hakeem Jefferies as

363
00:29:36,000 --> 00:29:38,200
long as we're in the minority.
So that's why I voted for Kevin McCartney

364
00:29:38,240 --> 00:29:41,079
for the sake of stability and so
the House can do its business and so

365
00:29:41,119 --> 00:29:45,559
forth. Pretty good, right,
I think I would be able to deliver

366
00:29:45,599 --> 00:29:48,359
that message pretty clearly if I were
in that position, and I in that

367
00:29:48,440 --> 00:29:53,640
scenario that I made up. But
you know, but the average House Democrat,

368
00:29:55,720 --> 00:29:59,200
they wouldn't be able to say it
that way. They just wouldn't.

369
00:29:59,200 --> 00:30:03,440
They're I'm constantly amazed at how you
know, and I hate to say it.

370
00:30:03,640 --> 00:30:07,160
You know, I'm a left leaning
guy, but I'm constantly amazed at

371
00:30:07,200 --> 00:30:12,000
how poor Democrats aren't messaging just basic
stuff like that. They wouldn't be able

372
00:30:12,039 --> 00:30:17,279
to pull it off, you know, they'd be tripping all over themselves and

373
00:30:17,720 --> 00:30:19,440
trying to figure out how to explain
it. So they didn't go there.

374
00:30:19,519 --> 00:30:23,519
They you know, they just they'll
continue to vote for Achiem Jeffries. But

375
00:30:23,559 --> 00:30:26,599
they should have saved McCartney for the
good of the country. They should have

376
00:30:26,640 --> 00:30:34,279
saved McCartney because what's happening now is
very very bad. It doesn't help anybody,

377
00:30:34,640 --> 00:30:42,839
and it's happening at a time where
and I don't know, I have

378
00:30:42,920 --> 00:30:47,839
no idea if I mean, I'm
just speculating wildly. So let me preface

379
00:30:47,839 --> 00:30:52,559
this with that. But did Hamas
do this when they did this massive terrorist

380
00:30:52,640 --> 00:30:56,319
attack on Israel? Did they make
that move when they did, because obviously

381
00:30:56,319 --> 00:30:59,359
they must have been planning it for
a very long time, a very long

382
00:30:59,400 --> 00:31:04,400
time to have Did they make that
move because they they're looking at America right

383
00:31:04,440 --> 00:31:07,519
now and saying, well, Israel
depends on America, and America is in

384
00:31:07,599 --> 00:31:11,359
disarray at least look at their government, Look at the House of Representatives in

385
00:31:11,400 --> 00:31:15,079
America. What are they going to
do. What's America going to do to

386
00:31:15,160 --> 00:31:19,000
help? Are they going to give
Israel a bunch of financial aid to pay

387
00:31:19,039 --> 00:31:23,319
for you know, are they gonna
spend a bunch of money to reload the

388
00:31:23,359 --> 00:31:30,640
Iron Dome, the defense system that
we gave Israel to. I think it

389
00:31:30,680 --> 00:31:36,319
came from US, right an American
military manufacturer that we gave them to.

390
00:31:36,880 --> 00:31:40,480
They need to they need to reload
it. They need more ammunition. Is

391
00:31:40,519 --> 00:31:45,920
America going to be able to do
that? I mean, it wouldn't take

392
00:31:45,920 --> 00:31:52,640
a lot of research for someone in
Hamas to figure out how our system of

393
00:31:52,640 --> 00:31:56,519
government works in terms of the money, in terms of appropriations, in terms

394
00:31:56,519 --> 00:32:05,039
of when you have to spend money
on things like military equipment like anti aircraft,

395
00:32:05,240 --> 00:32:07,519
you know, or not anti aircraft, but what would be the correct

396
00:32:07,599 --> 00:32:12,480
term, I don't know. Whatever
the Iron Dome uses to shoe down these

397
00:32:12,519 --> 00:32:15,200
incoming missiles. The Iron Dome is
very impressive by the way, it works

398
00:32:15,240 --> 00:32:21,559
really well. But you know,
was somebody in Hamas watching and saying America

399
00:32:21,880 --> 00:32:24,079
is on the ropes right now in
terms of their government. Their government is

400
00:32:24,119 --> 00:32:28,440
not functioning, which means they're going
to be in a weak position to help

401
00:32:28,519 --> 00:32:35,039
Israel, which means let's go.
I mean, I don't know, I

402
00:32:35,079 --> 00:32:37,519
don't know if anyone in Jumas figured
that out. I don't know if that

403
00:32:37,640 --> 00:32:39,880
was part of their plan who knows, probably never know, but I do

404
00:32:40,039 --> 00:32:45,680
know this. We do look weak
right now. What's going on in the

405
00:32:45,720 --> 00:32:51,599
House is really really bad, especially
when you can't see the light at the

406
00:32:51,640 --> 00:32:54,960
end of the tunnel. Like I
said, I see this plane out one

407
00:32:55,000 --> 00:32:58,200
of two ways, and both of
them, to me, from my point

408
00:32:58,200 --> 00:33:01,119
of view, are awful. One
is we just indefinitely don't have a speaker,

409
00:33:01,319 --> 00:33:06,039
which means our government is indefinitely paralyzed. Or two, we have Jim

410
00:33:06,119 --> 00:33:09,640
Jordan, a guy who, like
I said, he has voted against every

411
00:33:09,640 --> 00:33:14,839
continuing resolution when it's come up.
He never votes in favor of it.

412
00:33:15,440 --> 00:33:20,799
He I mean, he really wants
to just decimate our federal budget, so

413
00:33:20,880 --> 00:33:24,440
he votes against the continuing resolutions.
And I have no doubt that he would

414
00:33:24,440 --> 00:33:28,440
take us into default if he could. I have no doubt, no doubt

415
00:33:28,480 --> 00:33:30,720
in my mind. He's one of
these rip the band aid off guys.

416
00:33:30,759 --> 00:33:35,839
You know you hear them, right, these House Freedom Caucus people. They

417
00:33:35,839 --> 00:33:39,039
say, you know, we actually
should default, Let's just get it done,

418
00:33:39,119 --> 00:33:42,400
let's just get it over with,
just rip the band aid off.

419
00:33:42,400 --> 00:33:45,960
It's like, no, no,
no, what would happen if we ever

420
00:33:45,039 --> 00:33:49,039
defaulted? I mean, ask an
economist. Don't take my word for it.

421
00:33:49,079 --> 00:33:52,519
Ask any economists what would happen if
we were to actually default. If

422
00:33:52,559 --> 00:33:55,160
you want to use that analogy,
rip the band aid off, it would

423
00:33:55,160 --> 00:33:59,359
not be ripping a band aid off. It would be amputating the entire limb.

424
00:34:00,400 --> 00:34:07,240
It's it's the most reckless and stupid
thing imaginable. If you'd like to

425
00:34:07,240 --> 00:34:10,000
get him with a call six three
two five six seven, the studio line

426
00:34:10,039 --> 00:34:14,719
is open six O three two five
six oh seven. Jay fed in the

427
00:34:14,760 --> 00:34:17,599
chat says, this is regarding my
drowning analogy with Kevin McCartney. Uh,

428
00:34:17,679 --> 00:34:22,159
he said Phil Collins wouldn't lend a
hand. That's true. We know that

429
00:34:22,239 --> 00:34:27,480
from that song in the air tonight
someone told him they were drowning and he

430
00:34:27,519 --> 00:34:37,199
would not lend a hand. Anyway, let me refresh this. I just

431
00:34:37,199 --> 00:34:38,320
want to see if there's any kind
of an update. Like I said,

432
00:34:38,360 --> 00:34:44,280
they had one vote, Jim Jordan
failed. I mean, what is he

433
00:34:44,360 --> 00:34:49,400
going to This is part part of
the what's really interesting about this smeth What

434
00:34:49,559 --> 00:34:53,840
is he going to give away?
See, we know when McCartney was having

435
00:34:53,840 --> 00:35:00,039
to negotiate to win the speakership back
in January, he had to keep me

436
00:35:00,320 --> 00:35:04,760
with the House Freedom Caucus members and
just kept giving stuff away and giving stuff

437
00:35:04,800 --> 00:35:07,599
away right to try to bargain for, you know. And that's how it

438
00:35:07,719 --> 00:35:12,239
ended up at a point where it
only took one House member to bring about

439
00:35:12,280 --> 00:35:15,199
a resolution to have him ousted.
I mean, they had to vote on

440
00:35:15,239 --> 00:35:24,079
it. But what does how does
this dynamic work now that it's with McCartney.

441
00:35:24,440 --> 00:35:30,840
You had a I mean basically a
conservative, but a moderate moderate slash

442
00:35:30,920 --> 00:35:37,400
conservative Republican who had to keep giving
away things to the House Freedom Caucus,

443
00:35:37,440 --> 00:35:40,719
the very conservative House Freedom Caucus people
like Jim Jordan had to keep giving away

444
00:35:40,760 --> 00:35:45,679
things to them to get them to
either support him or vote present, you

445
00:35:45,679 --> 00:35:47,719
know, to let the math work
out. Because Matt Gates never actually voted

446
00:35:47,719 --> 00:35:52,480
for McCartney. He voted present.
He didn't vote for McCartney. He just

447
00:35:52,519 --> 00:35:57,320
finally stopped voting against him. Right, what does Jim Jordan give away to

448
00:35:57,599 --> 00:36:02,239
the moderate Republicans who aren'tupport What can
he give to them? Is he going

449
00:36:02,280 --> 00:36:07,440
to tell them, hey, I'll
try not to uh, I'll try not

450
00:36:07,480 --> 00:36:13,519
to keep voting against these crs.
So that what is he going to give

451
00:36:13,559 --> 00:36:22,000
to them? I don't know so
that's that's interesting. So I did refresh

452
00:36:22,119 --> 00:36:25,920
this the latest update from The Hill
dot com. We'll look at this quickly.

453
00:36:25,920 --> 00:36:30,039
In the first round of votes today, the House failed to elect a

454
00:36:30,079 --> 00:36:34,960
new speaker. The vote was two
hundred for Jordan, two hundred twelve for

455
00:36:35,039 --> 00:36:38,800
House Speaker. I'm sorry, House
Minority Leader Hakim Jeffries, who got the

456
00:36:38,840 --> 00:36:43,000
backing of the full Democratic caucus.
Yeah, the Democrats are fully united,

457
00:36:43,079 --> 00:36:49,480
just as they were in January.
So two hundred for Jordan to twelve for

458
00:36:49,599 --> 00:36:52,199
Hakim Jeffries. And by the way, for anyone who's wondering, why doesn't

459
00:36:52,239 --> 00:36:53,960
well that Hakiem Jeffries got the most
why doesn't he become House Speaker. It

460
00:36:53,960 --> 00:36:59,119
doesn't work that way. You have
to get a certain number of the whoever

461
00:36:59,199 --> 00:37:01,960
is the majority already holding the uh, the House. Uh, so you

462
00:37:02,039 --> 00:37:09,400
have to get to two seventeen.
Jordan gained some momentum today, I'm sorry,

463
00:37:09,480 --> 00:37:13,800
yesterday, rather picking up endorsements from
key players who had initially said they

464
00:37:13,800 --> 00:37:15,800
would not vote for him. But
during the vote over and this was a

465
00:37:15,800 --> 00:37:21,880
surprise, during the vote, over
a dozen Republicans voted for other options,

466
00:37:21,920 --> 00:37:27,480
including former Speaker Kevin McCarthy by the
way, keV Uh, I keep saying

467
00:37:27,559 --> 00:37:34,599
McCartney, don't I McCarthy. Uh, he voted for Jim Jordan when it

468
00:37:34,639 --> 00:37:38,320
was his time to vote, he
did not vote for himself. And Steve

469
00:37:38,360 --> 00:37:45,920
Scalise uh voted for Jim Jordan as
well. Yeah, so they so h

470
00:37:46,280 --> 00:37:53,719
McCarthy and Scalise both got votes.
The House has now gone into recess,

471
00:37:54,800 --> 00:38:05,280
so I'm assuming, I'm assuming that
when they're that they're they're having their meetings

472
00:38:05,280 --> 00:38:07,199
while the House is in recess.
Now here's who if you're curious, just

473
00:38:07,280 --> 00:38:14,760
quickly, here are the Here are
the twenty Republicans who voted against Jim Jordan

474
00:38:14,840 --> 00:38:24,119
for Speaker Don Bacon of Nebraska,
Lori Chavez Diremmer of Oregon, Anthony D.

475
00:38:24,320 --> 00:38:29,559
Esposito of New York by the way, Esposito of New York. That

476
00:38:29,719 --> 00:38:31,719
is in a that I know for
a fact is in a district. Actually

477
00:38:31,800 --> 00:38:37,480
these probably these probably all are,
but I know that one is definitely that's

478
00:38:37,519 --> 00:38:44,559
a blue district. That's but if
you remember in New York in uh in

479
00:38:44,599 --> 00:38:51,559
twenty twenty well no, I'm sorry, in twenty twenty two Democrats lost.

480
00:38:52,360 --> 00:38:59,760
This is how What's his name,
Uh, the lying guy, George Santos.

481
00:38:59,800 --> 00:39:02,960
This is that's how he got in. The line guy. Well,

482
00:39:02,960 --> 00:39:06,760
that is how he'll go down in
history. I guess right. The con

483
00:39:06,800 --> 00:39:10,719
man, the lion guy. He
got in because the Democrats tried to do

484
00:39:10,800 --> 00:39:15,159
some Jerry manderin in New York,
but they screwed it up, and they

485
00:39:15,239 --> 00:39:22,800
actually screwed themselves anyway. Mario Diaz
Bolart of Florida, Jake Elsey of Texas,

486
00:39:23,320 --> 00:39:31,199
Andrew Garbarino of New York, Carlos
jim Andez of Florida, Tony Gonzalez

487
00:39:31,239 --> 00:39:36,800
of Texas, Kay Granger of Texas. So that's three from Texas so far.

488
00:39:37,119 --> 00:39:45,400
Mike Kelly of Pennsylvania. Oh,
I'm trying to see this the rest

489
00:39:45,440 --> 00:39:50,559
of this list, and it loaded
something else. I can't get to the

490
00:39:50,559 --> 00:39:54,639
rest of the list. We're running
out of time anyway. And a bunch

491
00:39:54,639 --> 00:40:05,159
of others, a whole bunch of
them, all right, Um now the

492
00:40:05,159 --> 00:40:12,119
other thing just quickly on this subject
rise. Remember I was talking about how

493
00:40:12,639 --> 00:40:16,719
you know you've got house appropriations as
who decides where the money goes media,

494
00:40:16,760 --> 00:40:22,360
it has this up rise of the
house appropriators. GOP strategists notes it isn't

495
00:40:22,440 --> 00:40:27,719
terribly sexy, but serious legislators tanked
Jim Jordan. Let's look at this quickly

496
00:40:27,760 --> 00:40:29,760
and then we got we gotta get
to our break and then we'll get our

497
00:40:29,800 --> 00:40:36,199
guests son. Former GOP strategist Dan
Hay explained on CNN Today why Representative Jim

498
00:40:36,280 --> 00:40:39,280
Jordan fell far short of becoming House
Speaker during the first floor vote with him

499
00:40:39,320 --> 00:40:44,599
as the nominee. He said,
quote, one of the really interesting things

500
00:40:44,639 --> 00:40:47,360
what we're seeing is that a lot
of these no votes on whether they're voting

501
00:40:47,360 --> 00:40:52,199
for Scolice or McCarthy, is really
the rise of the House appropriators. And

502
00:40:52,360 --> 00:40:57,199
why have we had government shutdowns and
a lot of the chaos over these past

503
00:40:57,239 --> 00:41:00,079
few years. It's been the failure
to have a working, appropriate creation's process,

504
00:41:00,119 --> 00:41:04,960
which isn't terribly sexy. But this
is what Jordan has said he's going

505
00:41:05,000 --> 00:41:08,440
to try and do, and obviously
that's been on hold for a while.

506
00:41:08,920 --> 00:41:12,599
But if I could say one thing, a lot of this conversation has been

507
00:41:12,679 --> 00:41:17,440
Jim Jordan and Donald Trump. Donald
Trump caused Jim Jordan. This all predates

508
00:41:17,480 --> 00:41:22,800
Donald Trump by years. This is
the Tea Party election. This is the

509
00:41:22,840 --> 00:41:28,239
pick of Sarah Palin, Eric Canter, my old boss. Canter's primary loss

510
00:41:28,280 --> 00:41:31,920
the twenty thirteen government shutdown, staffing
decisions that Steve Scalise made against Jim Jordan.

511
00:41:32,119 --> 00:41:36,000
There's a whole lot going on here, and we're talking about a coal

512
00:41:36,039 --> 00:41:39,719
mine that is filled with canaries.
Donald Trump just came in with the great

513
00:41:39,760 --> 00:41:49,119
disrupt and was the great disruptor on
what already existed unquote. So there you

514
00:41:49,239 --> 00:41:52,679
go. Isaac Banks joins us in
the chatroom and says, hello, Matt

515
00:41:52,679 --> 00:41:55,719
connorton, how are you doing.
Jim Jordan? He is a new president.

516
00:41:57,079 --> 00:42:00,079
Come on, Matt connorton, what's
the conclusion of Jim Jordan? Isaac

517
00:42:00,119 --> 00:42:05,960
Banks? Of course, our friend
from Greensboro, North Carolina. It is

518
00:42:06,360 --> 00:42:09,519
actually my pleasure to inform you,
to get you caught up that no,

519
00:42:10,239 --> 00:42:16,320
Jim Jordan is not our new president, nor do I suspect he will at

520
00:42:16,360 --> 00:42:22,039
any point in the future be a
nominee. But he is nominated for House

521
00:42:22,039 --> 00:42:28,159
Speakers, So lucky, lucky,
Yes, Okay, we are approaching the

584
00:49:42,880 --> 00:49:45,679
not here last time. Correct,
that's correct, we had our drummer.

585
00:49:45,800 --> 00:49:47,400
But I'm also bald and I play
in the rhythm session, so I guess

586
00:49:47,440 --> 00:49:52,039
it's fine, perfect, perfect,
well, welcome and I love that.

587
00:49:52,400 --> 00:49:54,639
I love that song. We have
some other songs we're going to be planned

too, but this is so these
are really like brand new, right,

00:49:58,639 --> 00:50:02,800
fresh little fresh off of the mastering
press. Yeah, oh, fantastic.

590
00:50:04,199 --> 00:50:07,320
Yeah. I think I think last
time we were here, you had two

591
00:50:07,440 --> 00:50:10,360
singles, two tunes that were on
this EP that we candidly we thought was

592
00:50:10,400 --> 00:50:13,920
going to be released by now we're
a little late. That never happens in

593
00:50:13,960 --> 00:50:17,920
the music business. It's now the
EP will be coming out on November three.

594
00:50:19,159 --> 00:50:22,000
Okay, So last time we shared
two songs, I Don't Belong and

595
00:50:22,159 --> 00:50:27,800
low Lights that are the first and
closing track on that EP, and the

596
00:50:27,880 --> 00:50:30,679
song you just heard, Human Emotion
is one of the other three, and

597
00:50:30,679 --> 00:50:31,679
I think you have a couple of
the others. Oh yeah, yeah,

598
00:50:31,840 --> 00:50:35,679
yeah, Well we're gonna we're gonna
play some more today. Yeah, absolutely,

599
00:50:36,400 --> 00:50:37,519
so November third, is it?
Is it an EP? Or a

600
00:50:37,519 --> 00:50:40,480
full album. It's an EP EP
how many songs? Five songs? Five

601
00:50:40,559 --> 00:50:45,280
songs? Okay, And we probably
talked about this before, but what goes

602
00:50:45,320 --> 00:50:46,960
into that decision to you know,
because you have a lot of options.

603
00:50:47,000 --> 00:50:49,679
You can do an EP, you
can do an album, you could just

604
00:50:49,719 --> 00:50:52,639
release a bunch of singles. Just
so many different ways you can you can

605
00:50:52,719 --> 00:50:57,239
approach it these days, what went
into the decision to make an epoo?

606
00:50:58,920 --> 00:51:00,920
Well, yeah, it's a really
good question. You know, like the

607
00:51:01,119 --> 00:51:06,320
music industry is changing by the week, and so like we've gone through all

608
00:51:06,440 --> 00:51:09,079
kinds of you know, various thought
processes. You know, we've always wanted

609
00:51:09,119 --> 00:51:13,719
to do candidly a full length album
just because you tend to get more attention

610
00:51:13,920 --> 00:51:15,679
from the press, a little bit
more to talk about. And it's one

611
00:51:15,679 --> 00:51:19,159
of those things that, hey,
we did an album. But the reality

612
00:51:19,320 --> 00:51:23,239
is, you know, the world
today largely at least music listeners largely have

613
00:51:23,360 --> 00:51:27,920
add and they only want to listen
to your best song and and if they

614
00:51:27,960 --> 00:51:30,000
don't like track number two, they're
not gonna play it anyway. So,

615
00:51:30,519 --> 00:51:31,920
you know, we we wanted to
go in and do a batch of songs

616
00:51:32,000 --> 00:51:36,519
that felt like, okay, here's
a group of stuff that kind of shows

617
00:51:36,519 --> 00:51:38,960
where the band is right now.
Yeah, we've done a bunch of singles

618
00:51:39,000 --> 00:51:42,599
in the past and those are all
you know, they're fine, but we

619
00:51:42,679 --> 00:51:45,719
wanted to put something out that had
a little bit more of a little bit

620
00:51:45,719 --> 00:51:47,719
more of a statement to it.
Yeah, but we decided it didn't make

621
00:51:47,760 --> 00:51:52,239
sense to do the full length.
It's a lot of time, very expensive

622
00:51:52,440 --> 00:51:53,639
and candidly, as I said,
you know, sometimes you don't get to

623
00:51:53,719 --> 00:51:57,039
listen. So we thought this was
the best way to go for us today,

624
00:51:57,239 --> 00:52:01,599
right, right? And how long
has the band always been the three

625
00:52:01,639 --> 00:52:07,840
of you or well for the recent
history anyway, I mean this is kind

626
00:52:07,880 --> 00:52:12,719
of the this is are the Carlo
and Mark and I. I guess it's

627
00:52:12,719 --> 00:52:15,760
probably been six or seven years.
How many years as seven seven? Yeah,

628
00:52:15,880 --> 00:52:19,960
Yeah, Mark knows best. He's
been timing every day, I know

629
00:52:20,039 --> 00:52:22,360
what you mean. Yeah, right, but yeah, we've sort of been

630
00:52:22,519 --> 00:52:27,119
I would say this version of the
band has kind of been the you know,

631
00:52:27,239 --> 00:52:30,880
the version of best not broken that's
ultimately produced what we think we're most

632
00:52:30,920 --> 00:52:32,679
about. Yeah, you know that
we've been We've all been kicking around for

633
00:52:32,719 --> 00:52:36,599
a long time and we've the band
has taken many forms, but this is

634
00:52:36,719 --> 00:52:38,519
the this is the version that we
we've all had a good time with for

635
00:52:38,559 --> 00:52:43,400
the last seven years or so.
Yeah, excellent, excellent. Uh.

636
00:52:43,639 --> 00:52:45,280

645
00:53:15,039 --> 00:53:21,639
Banks from Greensboro, North Carolina.
I don't remember if the Greensboro contingent were

646
00:53:21,880 --> 00:53:24,760
contingent were in the chat room last
time you were here, they might have

647
00:53:24,800 --> 00:53:29,000
been Okay. Yeah, if you
if you start hearing some very odd questions

648
00:53:29,079 --> 00:53:31,920
like the one I'm about to ask
you, you'll know it's You'll you'll remember

649
00:53:31,920 --> 00:53:36,199
from Greensboro you'll remember question. Yes, yeah, Mark is in charge of

650
00:53:36,239 --> 00:53:37,639
all odd questions. That's what we
guess. All right, well this one

651
00:53:37,719 --> 00:53:42,320
is for you then, Mark best
not broken? How are you doing?

652
00:53:42,440 --> 00:53:45,760
Fellas? And I love the song? And what's your favorite Fastball song?

653
00:53:49,199 --> 00:53:52,760
Okay, that is truly I'll let
you go ahead, you go, let

654
00:53:52,800 --> 00:53:58,440
me add question. I can only
I can only think of one. Listen,

655
00:53:58,599 --> 00:54:01,400
have they had a couple? Right? Had the Way and the fire

656
00:54:01,559 --> 00:54:06,559
Escape? And another one? Why
we're talking about this recently? Yeah,

657
00:54:07,880 --> 00:54:09,800
we actually used to. So we
do some cover tunes and we actually used

658
00:54:09,840 --> 00:54:14,719
to cover the song The Way by
Fastball. Yeah. So I actually I

659
00:54:14,760 --> 00:54:17,760
appreciate the question because that's a They're
a pretty cool band, and uh,

660
00:54:17,880 --> 00:54:21,840
you know, they have some similarities, but with what we do, I

661
00:54:21,880 --> 00:54:25,159
would say harmonies, yeah, guitar, guitar, pop sort of stuff.

662
00:54:25,559 --> 00:54:30,000
Yeah. I don't have extensive knowledge
of their back catalog, so I'm gonna

663
00:54:30,000 --> 00:54:34,239
be really basic and I'll say the
Way. But I think I learned that

664
00:54:34,360 --> 00:54:36,840
when they started out, they had
more of a punky edge to them on

665
00:54:36,880 --> 00:54:39,079
their earlier stuff. And I remember
listening back the one time and it was

666
00:54:39,119 --> 00:54:43,599
really really fun, really different.
Yeah, it was really fun. Yeah,

667
00:54:43,639 --> 00:54:45,360
The Way is the only song I
can remember there is. I don't

668
00:54:45,360 --> 00:54:49,840
know if they I mean, did
they have any other actual hits. I

669
00:54:49,960 --> 00:54:52,559
think they had one other hit and
I can't remember the name Escape. Yeah,

670
00:54:52,559 --> 00:54:54,679
okay, I don't remember that one, but if I heard it,

671
00:54:54,719 --> 00:55:00,599
I'd probably recognize it. Yeah.
Jay Fad from the Great State of Raman

672
00:55:00,679 --> 00:55:05,199
says, I just want to know
about beards, growing them or increasing the

673
00:55:05,320 --> 00:55:07,639
length. Now, Mark, you've
got some You've got some beard there.

674
00:55:07,719 --> 00:55:09,880
I know this is pretty short for
me too, is it. Yeah?

675
00:55:10,599 --> 00:55:15,119
I always keep mind very short.
I can't. I'm not like I don't.

676
00:55:15,880 --> 00:55:17,119
I can't grow it out. One. Well, it starts to itch

677
00:55:17,199 --> 00:55:20,480
and oh it's terrible. You got
to get past that point. You got

678
00:55:20,639 --> 00:55:22,000
you gotta brave it and then you
got to comb it and it gets rid

679
00:55:22,039 --> 00:55:25,239
of the itch and it makes it
nice and soft. Yeah, you know,

680
00:55:25,320 --> 00:55:29,320
attention to detail for sure. You
don't want to drying out or anything,

681
00:55:29,440 --> 00:55:31,480
you know. Yeah, in a
mission that makes sense. Yeah,

682
00:55:31,880 --> 00:55:35,559
now, Eric, you have you
ever had a beard? I've never.

683
00:55:35,760 --> 00:55:37,280
In fact, that was one of
when we were recruiting Mark. That was

684
00:55:37,360 --> 00:55:40,280
one of their criteria because Carlow and
I at the time said we're never going

685
00:55:40,320 --> 00:55:44,239
to grow a beard. I had
never been able to get past that uncomfortable

686
00:55:44,480 --> 00:55:47,360
stage. Yeah, and uh so
Mark was sort of our designated beard guy,

687
00:55:47,400 --> 00:55:51,559
and he's I think he's been representing
pretty well. Yeah, and various

688
00:55:51,679 --> 00:55:54,199
lengths of course, for sure,
Carlo. At best he grows a creepy

689
00:55:54,280 --> 00:55:59,639
mustache once in a while. Yeah, Carlo, if you're listening, it's

690
00:55:59,719 --> 00:56:01,400
very very in the soul patch.
We got to talk about that later.

691
00:56:01,599 --> 00:56:07,119
Oh wow, Yeah, what like
seventies porn type creepy? Is it's pencil

692
00:56:07,199 --> 00:56:13,559
thin John waters Asque, No,
not quite that, but yeah, it's

693
00:56:13,559 --> 00:56:16,800
a vibe for sure. Isaac Banks
says in the chat room, best not

694
00:56:16,920 --> 00:56:22,599
Broken. My favorite song from Fastball
is fire Escape, and the CD was

695
00:56:22,800 --> 00:56:25,559
All the Money you Can Buy.
That's right, I remember that familiar I

696
00:56:25,760 --> 00:56:30,800
remember that. Yes, Yes,
And hello to our friend Melanie Liberty,

697
00:56:30,840 --> 00:56:35,599
who was in the Facebook live chat. I'm Melanie, and let's see you

698
00:56:35,679 --> 00:56:37,800
got anybody else? Oh and after
the Winter a great band who was on

699
00:56:37,880 --> 00:56:42,480
the show recently there and there,
Hello, guys, Yes, after the

700
00:56:42,519 --> 00:56:45,880
Winter, see after the you know, because we were talking about how I

701
00:56:45,960 --> 00:56:47,639
don't was that audio or off air
we're talking about this. I think it

702
00:56:47,760 --> 00:56:50,639
was off. That was off air? Was off? Yeah, I was.

703
00:56:50,679 --> 00:56:52,679
I was saying to I was saying
to these guys, I don't like

704
00:56:52,760 --> 00:56:55,679
fall that much because aside from the
leaves, I don't like what fall leads

705
00:56:55,679 --> 00:56:59,480
to. I'm a spring and summer
guy. When I when After the Winter

706
00:56:59,599 --> 00:57:00,480
was on the show show, I
said, where does the name come from?

707
00:57:00,639 --> 00:57:05,599
And the singer whose name escapes me
unfortunately, but great band, great

708
00:57:05,639 --> 00:57:08,280
guys. But he said after the
winter it's the best time, and I

709
00:57:08,360 --> 00:57:13,000
said, yes, it is,
isn't it. I agree, After the

710
00:57:13,079 --> 00:57:15,880
winter it's a relief. It's like
you got through winter and now you've got

711
00:57:15,920 --> 00:57:17,679
spring and then you got summer.
Absolutely. I like that. Yeah,

712
00:57:17,840 --> 00:57:22,079
Like, yeah, have you guys
been playing a lot of shows or have

713
00:57:22,159 --> 00:57:25,320
you been more focused on the EP? Well, we've been actually a little

714
00:57:25,320 --> 00:57:30,400
bit of a mix. We've had
some some fun shows, busy summer.

715
00:57:30,559 --> 00:57:32,320
It's been a busy summer. We've
been really kind of cram and you know,

716
00:57:32,360 --> 00:57:35,880
as I mentioned that we're late on
the EP, we had hoped to

717
00:57:35,920 --> 00:57:40,239
have it out kind of late summer. We had a strange string of complications

718
00:57:40,280 --> 00:57:44,199
with like our last tune, trying
to get it ready, and then some

719
00:57:44,760 --> 00:57:49,159
deliberations as to what should actually land
on the EP. But yeah, so

720
00:57:49,679 --> 00:57:51,599
we spent a lot of time working
on that, trying to get it done

721
00:57:51,599 --> 00:57:53,119
and try to get it done right, and so that has taken some time,

722
00:57:53,159 --> 00:57:55,679
but we've had some good shows.
I think the last time we were

723
00:57:55,760 --> 00:57:59,960
here, we were just getting ready
for our gig with the Smashing Pumpkins,

724
00:58:00,079 --> 00:58:01,679
which we were thinking was going to
be a really weird show for us.

725
00:58:01,920 --> 00:58:08,159
Oh yeah, because an inter Pol
was there and and who's the something Suns

726
00:58:08,239 --> 00:58:13,119
right? Uh, I'm gonna say
the wrong name, but we should I'm

727
00:58:13,119 --> 00:58:15,079
not going to. But nonetheless we
thought it was gonna be a weird show.

728
00:58:15,079 --> 00:58:17,320
It actually turned out to be a
lot of fun. It was again,

729
00:58:17,400 --> 00:58:20,480
we had a great response, and
it was a really good time.

730
00:58:20,679 --> 00:58:23,559
You know, because our music has
mellowed since you know, we we all

731
00:58:23,639 --> 00:58:27,599
listened to Smashing Pumpkins, but our
music has mellowed and so now it's not

732
00:58:27,840 --> 00:58:30,039
really in line with what they do. So we figured all these guys,

733
00:58:30,440 --> 00:58:31,400
you know, listen to a song
or two of ours and walk on by.

734
00:58:31,440 --> 00:58:34,280
But actually it was cool. They
hung around, we got to meet

735
00:58:35,719 --> 00:58:37,360
a guy, I guess, the
bass player from the Pumpkins and the band

736
00:58:37,440 --> 00:58:39,960
player for They came down hang out
a little bit and that was fun.

737
00:58:40,000 --> 00:58:43,440
They're going for a little bike ride
and came down said Hi, yeah,

738
00:58:43,840 --> 00:58:46,039
yeah, good good group. So
that was a good show. But we've

739
00:58:46,079 --> 00:58:52,840
got this this Friday. We're down
at Salisbury Beach at Blue Ocean Music Hall

740
00:58:52,880 --> 00:58:55,239
with the Bacon Brothers and that's Kevin
Bacon and his brother. A lot of

741
00:58:55,239 --> 00:58:59,960
people don't know that Kevin plays in
a band and is actually a great musician,

742
00:59:00,039 --> 00:59:02,800
and as this is brother, Yeah
yeah, so and I our thinking

743
00:59:02,920 --> 00:59:07,039
is that's going to be a better
you know, configuration because they're sort of

744
00:59:07,079 --> 00:59:08,519
doing and there, and we've been
asked to play acoustic, which we do

745
00:59:08,599 --> 00:59:12,920
occasionally, and they're kind of in
an acoustic configuration. So I don't know.

746
00:59:13,039 --> 00:59:15,039
We thought that would be a good
you know, a good fit,

747
00:59:15,159 --> 00:59:19,599
but maybe it won't. They have
this sort of eclectic style, you know,

748
00:59:19,679 --> 00:59:22,280
it's like a mix of rock and
Americana and jazz and folk, and

749
00:59:22,639 --> 00:59:23,760
I don't know, it'll be interesting
to see how it goes. We're just

750
00:59:23,800 --> 00:59:25,760
gonna do our thing. That's all
we can do, I guess, right,

751
00:59:25,880 --> 00:59:29,599
so we can do what they do
because I've always been aware of the

752
00:59:29,639 --> 00:59:31,639
Bacon brothers. But do they is
it just the two of them or do

753
00:59:31,760 --> 00:59:35,679
they have a band? They have
a band? Okay, yeah, but

754
00:59:35,880 --> 00:59:37,960
but this show it's they're doing an
acoustic thing. Well they're playing with the

755
00:59:38,000 --> 00:59:42,079
full band, but they they play
with the full band, they bring in

756
00:59:42,159 --> 00:59:45,000
a lot of acoustic instruments. Okay, gotcha, cars, and there's an

757
00:59:45,039 --> 00:59:47,840
acoustic orientation to it. Oh cool. I presume they'll probably do some electric

758
00:59:47,880 --> 00:59:51,519
stuff as well. But yeah,
yeah, but we're going to be all

759
00:59:51,559 --> 00:59:55,079
acoustic for that gig. Have you
guys done much of that doing acoustic shows

760
00:59:55,159 --> 00:59:58,320
or is this a rarity? What
do you think? Mark? We've done

761
00:59:58,320 --> 01:00:00,440
a few Blue Ocean alone. I
think we've done two more before this.

762
01:00:00,800 --> 01:00:05,519
Yeah, well with who the guests
who maybe acoustics with the guests who,

763
01:00:05,880 --> 01:00:09,480
And we did one other acoustic the
Tubes. I think it was Oh wow.

764
01:00:10,639 --> 01:00:14,000
So yeah, so we've done we've
done some acoustic stuff. You know.

765
01:00:14,039 --> 01:00:17,440
Actually, I mean our music mostly
is produced in an electric format,

766
01:00:17,519 --> 01:00:22,119
but a lot of it is written
on the acoustic guitar with acoustic instruments,

767
01:00:22,119 --> 01:00:24,920
so it translates reasonably. Well.
Yeah, and you know our music is

768
01:00:25,000 --> 01:00:30,719
largely about the melodies and the harmonies, so that usually works in an acoustic

769
01:00:30,800 --> 01:00:34,960
format. Oh, absolutely, hoping
it will go well. And where where

770
01:00:35,079 --> 01:00:38,119
is the EP? Is it all
recorded in the same place, same studio?

771
01:00:38,920 --> 01:00:43,599
Yeah? So well, actually no, not all recorded. It was

772
01:00:44,519 --> 01:00:47,480
a mix of studios. So we
did some of the work at Revel Resound

773
01:00:47,519 --> 01:00:52,559
Studios, which is actually right here
in Manchester. Okauddy Matt Blanchard, Who's

774
01:00:52,599 --> 01:00:55,840
I'm sorry, Matt Planchett, thank
you. Matt is Mark is also in

775
01:00:55,960 --> 01:01:00,760
charge of corrections, beards and corrections. I think I've interviewed him. Yeah,

776
01:01:00,800 --> 01:01:04,719
he's in a group called Paper Monsters. Yes, really good guy.

777
01:01:04,840 --> 01:01:07,079
I interviewed him, but long time
ago. I should reach out to it.

778
01:01:07,119 --> 01:01:09,920
It's like it was like seven or
eight years ago that I interviewed him,

779
01:01:09,920 --> 01:01:13,639
believe it or not. Yeah,
but but he was in Paper Monsters

780
01:01:13,679 --> 01:01:16,880
at the time. But but interview
it was on another show that I do

781
01:01:17,000 --> 01:01:22,920
that Arizon another station actually but he
uh yeah, but but he and he

782
01:01:22,960 --> 01:01:24,840
played on the show just acoustic guitar. But but it's still on for anyone

783
01:01:24,840 --> 01:01:28,639
who wants it. It's it's still
online. It's uh. The show is

784
01:01:28,639 --> 01:01:30,880
called Local Outbreak and it's uh.
They can look that up. It's either

785
01:01:30,960 --> 01:01:35,320
under paper Monsters or Matt Planchet to
google it. It's there. But yeah,

786
01:01:35,400 --> 01:01:37,360
very talented. Yeah, that's a
great guy. And he's so he

787
01:01:37,559 --> 01:01:42,559
still plays, but he also does
he's an awesome producer and recording engineer.

788
01:01:43,039 --> 01:01:45,719
So we did some work with him
and we recorded a batch of it down

789
01:01:45,760 --> 01:01:51,360
at Woolle Mammoth Studios in Waltham,
math mass with our buddy Dave Minahan,

790
01:01:52,360 --> 01:01:55,000
who you may know from past the
Boston area stuff. But he's uh,

791
01:01:55,079 --> 01:01:58,880
yeah, he plays in a band, played in a band called the Neighborhoods,

792
01:01:59,079 --> 01:02:01,760
and you know he was sort of
like the the sitting guitar player for

793
01:02:01,840 --> 01:02:07,760
Aersmith for a while. Uh and
and with the replacements, right. So

794
01:02:07,960 --> 01:02:10,360
also, you know, a guy
with a great musical ear, but has

795
01:02:10,400 --> 01:02:15,679
spent in the last thirty years becoming
an awesome producer. So we've record We

796
01:02:15,760 --> 01:02:17,440
recorded most of the stuff at Willy, some of it came back to Matt

797
01:02:17,599 --> 01:02:22,400
for mixing, and then we sent
it up to was former league Gateway and

798
01:02:22,480 --> 01:02:25,679
now I N Mastering in Portland,
Maine, who does a lot of awesome

799
01:02:25,719 --> 01:02:30,800
work with Grammy nominees that we're just
happy to be you know, have oo.

800
01:02:31,719 --> 01:02:37,760
We're not there yet, we've had
nominations not for that. Well,

801
01:02:37,880 --> 01:02:40,480
very cool. Well let's uh,
let's hear another track from the I'll let

802
01:02:40,559 --> 01:02:45,920
you guys pick. So we played, we played Human Emotion. What what

803
01:02:46,480 --> 01:02:50,519
what would you like me to play
next? We've got that's the way she

804
01:02:50,719 --> 01:02:53,159
likes it? Uh, line awake
or and yeah, what don't we do?

805
01:02:53,280 --> 01:02:57,920
That's the way she likes it?
Okay, and we'll we'll play all

806
01:02:57,920 --> 01:03:00,400
of them before the end of the
show. Yeah. Actually, so here's

807
01:03:00,440 --> 01:03:04,280
an interesting question for your listeners if
they're kicking around the we're trying to figure

808
01:03:04,320 --> 01:03:07,719
out what what single, what should
be the next single. So our first

809
01:03:07,760 --> 01:03:10,880
single off of this EP was I
Don't Belong, which you played last time?

810
01:03:12,039 --> 01:03:15,440
Yeah, yeah, and we had
we had a song in mine to

811
01:03:15,559 --> 01:03:19,320
be the next single. But now
that we've all heard everything right a gazillion

812
01:03:19,360 --> 01:03:21,480
times, we're sort of like,
wait, is that really the right one?

813
01:03:21,519 --> 01:03:23,480
So so if you have an opinion
as you listen to these next tunes,

814
01:03:23,559 --> 01:03:27,199
if you have an opinion as to
which one you think should be the

815
01:03:27,360 --> 01:03:30,079
next single, let us know,
but this is one of the candidates.

816
01:03:30,320 --> 01:03:34,039
It's like a like a focus group. I like it. You just give

817
01:03:34,079 --> 01:03:37,719
me an idea for a podcast?
Actually, okay, single? Yeah,

818
01:03:38,039 --> 01:03:42,079
but uh yeah, all right,
let's give this a listen. So this

819
01:03:42,239 --> 01:03:44,000
is that's the way she likes it. Oh, what's the name of the

820
01:03:44,079 --> 01:03:49,480
EP, by the way, or
if it feels right, If it feels

821
01:03:49,519 --> 01:03:51,159
right, that's the name of the
EP. Yeah, okay, I had

822
01:03:51,159 --> 01:03:54,840
an Okay, so this is from
there. This is from the upcoming EP.

823
01:03:55,000 --> 01:03:59,000
If it feels right, from best
not broken here it is. That's

824
01:03:59,039 --> 01:04:21,320
the way she likes it. It's
quartered ten and we torn off the bed.

825
01:04:21,599 --> 01:04:30,679
It's Saturday morning with Friday Champagne turning
alarm off talking about movies. She

826
01:04:30,920 --> 01:04:39,480
wants to see Dirty Dance, and
again everyone knows she's shy and goes joy

827
01:04:39,719 --> 01:04:48,079
leave of my imagine s a way
she said, you don't even know.

828
01:04:51,119 --> 01:04:58,679
She sees me walk blushes. It's
fast tomorrow, it's just the same.

829
01:05:00,239 --> 01:05:03,639
It's a party somewhere down the tempt
Ruth deck dancing in the wind. She

830
01:05:03,800 --> 01:05:13,400
calls me amazing. Shecus me her, I'm thinking it's calming. But dreams

831
01:05:13,440 --> 01:05:21,039
are musians and our mom is father
knows. She's shy, likes showing a

832
01:05:21,159 --> 01:05:30,480
host of fast and they shine fast
away. She s she don't even know

833
01:05:30,840 --> 01:05:40,079
the name, exees me flushes.
It's hermrow. It's just the same,

834
01:05:43,320 --> 01:05:48,199
the same for snay. But there'll
be no what here singing, I say,

835
01:05:53,960 --> 01:06:05,159
chess agathings. Maybe she doesn't lust
is the blushing. Maybe I'm rushing

836
01:06:05,320 --> 01:06:14,760
the song. She's perfectly placed in
my imagination. Maybe it's where she did.

837
01:06:20,639 --> 01:06:39,159
That's where shown sym solid side,
perfect everywhere. That's the way she

838
01:06:39,800 --> 01:06:46,159
likes it. She don't even know
the name. She sees me home by

839
01:06:47,039 --> 01:07:18,159
the blushes suns, but it's just
the same. That's good, that is

840
01:07:18,480 --> 01:07:21,599
that's the way she likes it.
That is the band Best Not Broken,

841
01:07:21,719 --> 01:07:26,280
And that's from their upcoming EP.
If it feels right and you are hearing

842
01:07:26,360 --> 01:07:30,159
these for the first time, by
the way, and we've got a couple

843
01:07:30,199 --> 01:07:32,039
of the guys from Best Not Broken
here in studio with us. Eric and

844
01:07:32,199 --> 01:07:36,119
Mark are here and great song,
guys, I love it. Thanks,

845
01:07:36,239 --> 01:07:39,559
Thank you, really good. First
time I've heard it in big headphones.

846
01:07:39,760 --> 01:07:43,760
Yeah yeah, well it sounds fantastic, by the way, I just got

847
01:07:43,840 --> 01:07:47,280
an email now This didn't come directly
to me. This was actually somebody emailed

848
01:07:47,440 --> 01:07:53,159
the station here at w M and
H. But they're listening, and then

849
01:07:54,079 --> 01:07:59,920
somebody forwarded this to me. Thank
you, Joe Laar from Carol Mitchell.

850
01:08:00,800 --> 01:08:03,559
Carol says I'm a big fan of
Best Not Broken, and they sent a

851
01:08:03,719 --> 01:08:09,079
message to me that they will be
live at five today. I've been listening

852
01:08:09,199 --> 01:08:15,480
since I saw the message and made
Pizzell's Pizzelli's while listening. I really like

853
01:08:15,639 --> 01:08:18,439
this station and I've bookmarked it.
Thank you. I am from Hudson,

854
01:08:18,560 --> 01:08:23,279
mass So there you go. Thank
you, Carol. You know you must

855
01:08:23,319 --> 01:08:25,600
know what a pizzelli is. I
don't what the heck is that supposed to

856
01:08:25,640 --> 01:08:28,960
mean. I don't know. No, I think they're cookies of some sort.

857
01:08:29,079 --> 01:08:32,439
Okay, oh it's a fancy dessert
cookie, I believe. Oh okay,

858
01:08:32,840 --> 01:08:35,479
thanks Carol. Well, very good. Yes, good to you.

859
01:08:35,479 --> 01:08:38,920
Hear from you, Carol, Yes, thank you, Carol, very nice,

860
01:08:39,039 --> 01:08:41,560
very nice. And if you have
anything for the band, the studio

861
01:08:41,640 --> 01:08:45,800
line is open. Six three two
five six oh seven six three two five

862
01:08:45,279 --> 01:08:49,560
six seven. Maria and Bannis shows
us in the Facebook live chat. She

863
01:08:49,720 --> 01:08:55,039
says, I'm loving their music.
Ronda Favero says, love it. It

864
01:08:55,119 --> 01:08:59,640
has a nineteen sixties flavor, very
melodic. Yeah. I was thinking too,

865
01:09:00,239 --> 01:09:03,960
there's and we may have talked about
this before, but there's your music

866
01:09:04,039 --> 01:09:08,520
that there's a timelessness to it in
that I feel like it would fit into

867
01:09:08,600 --> 01:09:14,760
any era and not sound not sound
dated. It would just sound current at

868
01:09:14,760 --> 01:09:17,800
any time. Does that make sense, Like it's not something you can like,

869
01:09:18,119 --> 01:09:20,880
like, you know, she made
the observation that song as kind of

870
01:09:20,920 --> 01:09:26,800
a sixties flavor, but you wouldn't
necessarily date it to any particular period.

871
01:09:26,920 --> 01:09:30,159
Yeah, if that makes sense.
What we're hoping most is that people like

872
01:09:30,239 --> 01:09:33,119
it today exactly. But no,
I appreciate that, you know, I

873
01:09:33,239 --> 01:09:38,439
mean, I think, you know, we all Mark and I, being

874
01:09:38,479 --> 01:09:42,439
the primary songwriters of the band,
draw references from different time periods, and

875
01:09:42,920 --> 01:09:45,840
you know we you know, I
love the Beatles, I love the Beach

876
01:09:45,920 --> 01:09:47,399
Boys, a lot of that older
stuff. I love a lot of contemporary

877
01:09:47,439 --> 01:09:54,640
stuff. That particular song has been
kicking around in my head for probably twenty

878
01:09:54,760 --> 01:09:59,720
years, right, so it definitely
draws on earlier influences, and we weren't

879
01:09:59,760 --> 01:10:04,680
quite sure how to produce it.
But Dave Minihan down at Wooly Mammoth put

880
01:10:04,720 --> 01:10:08,960
a lot of those harmonies in there
and sort of sucked out that sort of

881
01:10:09,039 --> 01:10:14,359
sixties like you know, Beach Boys
beat a less. Yeah, actually said

882
01:10:14,359 --> 01:10:16,119
a lot of the harmonies. The
first time I heard a mix, I

883
01:10:16,199 --> 01:10:19,239
heard all these high harmonies, I'm
like, I don't think that's Eric up

884
01:10:19,239 --> 01:10:27,840
there'ne yet so really good? Oh
that's cool. So that's so that song

885
01:10:27,960 --> 01:10:30,000
was in your head for a long
time, but you didn't hear it that

886
01:10:30,199 --> 01:10:32,880
way the way that it came out. Uh, And it was pretty close,

887
01:10:33,039 --> 01:10:35,119
you know, you know, you
always you try to get it as

888
01:10:35,119 --> 01:10:39,199
close as you can to your vision, you know, from your music days,

889
01:10:39,279 --> 01:10:42,760
and you never hit it on the
mark right, and you hope you

890
01:10:42,880 --> 01:10:45,479
come as close as you can,
and you hope that whenever you get there,

891
01:10:45,560 --> 01:10:48,119
that it's at least something you like. And all of all of these

892
01:10:48,159 --> 01:10:50,560
songs are in that phase where like, I don't know yet if I like

893
01:10:50,640 --> 01:10:55,600
them right, because they're not.
We were just sort of like hearing them

894
01:10:55,680 --> 01:10:57,960
fully finished. Now, that was
the first time really I've heard in big

895
01:10:58,000 --> 01:11:00,520
heaf moones. So wow, No, we I always like that melody.

896
01:11:01,119 --> 01:11:03,680
It's a very simple song, and
it took a long time to sort of

897
01:11:03,760 --> 01:11:06,079
come up with a verse and a
pre course that sort of matched it.

898
01:11:06,920 --> 01:11:10,600
But we always liked the melody and
always felt like it should have, you

899
01:11:10,680 --> 01:11:13,079
know, some heavy harmonies and that
kind of a treatment. So you know,

900
01:11:13,119 --> 01:11:16,199
I appreciate that comment. It's that's
probably probably the right comment for this

901
01:11:16,319 --> 01:11:20,439
song. So that's very cool,
cool cool. Melanie La Liberty from the

902
01:11:20,479 --> 01:11:24,159
Gray State of Vermont. She says
in the chat room, did they say

903
01:11:24,520 --> 01:11:28,159
the girl in song liked to watch
Dirty Dancing? Yeah, no, one

904
01:11:28,199 --> 01:11:32,239
should date someone who likes to watch
that movie. It's an immediate red flag.

905
01:11:32,439 --> 01:11:34,840
Yes, right, right, yeah, yes, which is another song?

906
01:11:34,960 --> 01:11:40,399
Right? Oh yeah, we didn't
bring that today, but and Isaac

907
01:11:40,479 --> 01:11:45,479
Banks says, we say best not
Broken. Have you never listened to Matchbox

908
01:11:45,600 --> 01:11:49,079
twenty song Long Day? I think
everyone's heard that song. Yeah. You

909
01:11:49,159 --> 01:11:54,039
really couldn't exist on planet Earth without
having heard that song at one time.

910
01:11:54,680 --> 01:11:58,239
And actually it's interesting because the one
of the next songs that you're going to

911
01:11:58,319 --> 01:12:01,119
play, there's a part of it
that actually reminds me specifically of that song

912
01:12:01,199 --> 01:12:04,520
of Long Day by Oh No Kid
Mashbucks. There's just this quick melodic thing.

913
01:12:04,880 --> 01:12:08,800
Yeah, that sounds kind of like
Mashbucks one. Oh okay, all

914
01:12:08,880 --> 01:12:13,359
right, yeah, so the so
I'm sorry, not the album, the

915
01:12:13,680 --> 01:12:15,079
EP comes out. What did you
say to the day? Was again?

916
01:12:15,520 --> 01:12:19,079
November third? November third Friday.
Now, you probably have a lot of

917
01:12:19,479 --> 01:12:23,520
I assume you have a lot of
material that didn't end up on on the

918
01:12:23,560 --> 01:12:27,199
EP. Is that is that difficult
when you're trying to figure out because you

919
01:12:27,199 --> 01:12:30,039
would even reference something about a song, you were trying to figure out what

920
01:12:30,159 --> 01:12:31,279
was going to go on the EP
and what wasn't. Is that is that

921
01:12:31,439 --> 01:12:34,279
hard when you because I assume after
quite a few years, you've got a

922
01:12:34,319 --> 01:12:38,640
lot of material, I would imagine, so to try to narrow that down

923
01:12:38,760 --> 01:12:40,760
to figure out what's going to go
on the EP? I mean, obviously

924
01:12:40,800 --> 01:12:44,359
there's things you can always release later
on, but is that a difficult decision?

925
01:12:44,520 --> 01:12:47,159
And and with with three of you
in the band, is it hard

926
01:12:47,199 --> 01:12:50,720
to really get everybody get everybody to
agree? Yeah? I got to start

927
01:12:51,239 --> 01:12:55,239
sure. Yeah. Yeah. There's
another song that we actually recorded during the

928
01:12:55,359 --> 01:13:00,880
sessions for this that it has a
slightly different and vibe and it it's a

929
01:13:00,920 --> 01:13:06,319
little bit behind in the mixing stage, so we decided to save it potentially

930
01:13:06,439 --> 01:13:10,520
for a single down the line or
some other kind of release. Who knows

931
01:13:11,640 --> 01:13:16,479
it's a song I did, and
I'm very persnickety, all types of problems.

932
01:13:17,600 --> 01:13:20,600
But yeah, we also have songs
that, you know, we'll practice

933
01:13:20,640 --> 01:13:23,600
for a while, it will get
them sounded good, and I'll be like,

934
01:13:23,640 --> 01:13:27,680
ah, this doesn't really fit what
we're going for, and then of

935
01:13:27,760 --> 01:13:30,319
course inevitably we'll come back to it. A month. I was like,

936
01:13:30,359 --> 01:13:32,000
you know what, I think there's
something to that, right, And then

937
01:13:32,000 --> 01:13:34,439
a couple of weeks later, I'm
like, no, no, let's move

938
01:13:34,520 --> 01:13:38,239
on, move on. Yeah,
yeah, we have this one song.

939
01:13:38,319 --> 01:13:43,000
It's actually one of the first songs
that Best not Broken ever performed as an

940
01:13:43,000 --> 01:13:45,000
original band, and the name of
this song is Best Not Broken. Yeah,

941
01:13:45,680 --> 01:13:49,159
right, And so we for for
a long time we played it live

942
01:13:49,199 --> 01:13:51,439
and then we're like, ah,
this isn't really us anymore. Let's set

943
01:13:51,439 --> 01:13:54,720
it aside. I mean, we
want to if we're gonna put a song

944
01:13:54,800 --> 01:13:57,760
out with our name, it's got
to be the right song. And then

945
01:13:57,960 --> 01:14:00,119
like it resurfaced, like you know, five six years later. We played

946
01:14:00,119 --> 01:14:02,840
it for one then I went away, and lately we've been doing it again

947
01:14:03,079 --> 01:14:05,399
and like it kind of has a
new vibe to it, and we're like,

948
01:14:05,640 --> 01:14:09,319
actually, maybe it's kind of more
relevant than we thought. This has

949
01:14:09,359 --> 01:14:13,039
been around for probably twenty years.
Yeah, it's gotten a good reaction lately.

950
01:14:13,079 --> 01:14:15,039
And I forgot we actually did record
the bones of it at least.

951
01:14:15,159 --> 01:14:17,720
Yeah, maybe for this, you
know, this could have been like a

952
01:14:17,880 --> 01:14:21,880
seven song, like like a long
EP, you know. Yeah, yeah,

953
01:14:23,239 --> 01:14:27,479
but again we just kind of it's
about time and money and schedule.

954
01:14:27,680 --> 01:14:30,319
So it's tough. You know,
Mark and I are both songwriters and like

955
01:14:30,560 --> 01:14:32,439
you know, trying to like even
with your own material. You know,

956
01:14:32,560 --> 01:14:35,039
I have a bunch of stuff I've
written. Its same from Mark where it's

957
01:14:35,079 --> 01:14:39,760
like, you know, if I
have a hundred ideas, probably twenty of

958
01:14:39,840 --> 01:14:42,319
them fit in the Best Not Broken
bucket, right, there's a much of

959
01:14:42,359 --> 01:14:45,479
other Like I at some point we'll
release the country album and a folk album

960
01:14:45,479 --> 01:14:47,039
and all the d but it's a
long way off once I retire from Best

961
01:14:47,079 --> 01:14:49,600
Not Broken. But and Mark the
same. You know, he's got you

962
01:14:49,680 --> 01:14:54,319
know, pop punk songs, and
he's got like rock anthems and all kinds

963
01:14:54,319 --> 01:14:57,239
of stuff, but finding songs that
like can come together and sit on the

964
01:14:57,239 --> 01:14:59,600
same EP and feel like, okay, this is kind of where the band

965
01:14:59,680 --> 01:15:01,960
is today and it sounds right and
works together. Especially with two songwriters,

966
01:15:02,000 --> 01:15:05,199
it's hard to do and so yeah, it's not an easy decision. And

967
01:15:05,520 --> 01:15:09,560
you know something we stress over every
time. Yeah, yeah, no doubt

968
01:15:10,039 --> 01:15:15,239
is now does Carlo write anything or
is it? Yeah, well, Carlo

969
01:15:15,359 --> 01:15:19,800
is our lead bridge writer. Actually
that's true. I have a this filthy

970
01:15:19,880 --> 01:15:25,439
habit of writing really linear, long, rambling bridges that just had part after

971
01:15:25,479 --> 01:15:29,760
part after part before you finally get
to the chorus again. And Carlos always

972
01:15:29,800 --> 01:15:32,119
like, hey, cut the crap, like, just do this part,

973
01:15:32,640 --> 01:15:35,319
cut out those other six parts and
then we'll go right back to the chorus

974
01:15:35,359 --> 01:15:40,720
and that's it, and like whatever, fine, But I think low Lights

975
01:15:40,840 --> 01:15:44,680
was actually like a minute longer our
new song that you played last time,

976
01:15:45,319 --> 01:15:46,880
and actually we're supposed to have like
a saxophone, so wasn't supposed to be

977
01:15:47,000 --> 01:15:50,119
is it something that we're thinking of
sacks or something like that, And then

978
01:15:50,199 --> 01:15:54,399
it just got axed because it wasn't
coming together and Carlo put his foot down

979
01:15:54,399 --> 01:15:57,760
again. But that's the only time
we let him get creative input on the

980
01:15:57,800 --> 01:16:00,600
bridges. So he's like an editor
and he well, he thinks he's the

981
01:16:00,680 --> 01:16:04,079
lead editor. Carlo, if you're
listening, you're the lead editor and best

982
01:16:04,159 --> 01:16:08,600
nut broken of course you. Mark
and I always talk behind the scenes and

983
01:16:08,640 --> 01:16:14,680
make sure that we're comfortable with his
editing. But right right, Melanie,

984
01:16:14,840 --> 01:16:17,359
a lot of liberty in the chat
room says how many layers of shirts is

985
01:16:17,520 --> 01:16:23,239
desk guy wearing? It seems excessive? Are you on screen right now?

986
01:16:23,640 --> 01:16:26,520
Yeah? I didn't realize that I
was actually on camera. Well, yes,

987
01:16:26,800 --> 01:16:30,039
so I actually contemplated that. So
I'm I'm a guy that gets didn't

988
01:16:30,159 --> 01:16:33,600
think of it. I get very
very easily, and I don't like to,

989
01:16:33,720 --> 01:16:38,520
you know, if I'm shivering and
I'm talking, it's it's awkward.

990
01:16:38,600 --> 01:16:41,880
So I figured I'm better off being
warm than I am being cold. And

991
01:16:41,960 --> 01:16:44,039
I got out of the cars that
I'm going to throw my jacket on just

992
01:16:44,039 --> 01:16:45,439
because I you know, it's sort
of a he wants to look good,

993
01:16:46,119 --> 01:16:48,279
you know, and I will,
and I want to look good. It's

994
01:16:48,319 --> 01:16:51,319
best I can, it's best I
possibly can. I'm counting two shirts in

995
01:16:51,359 --> 01:16:55,880
a jacket. Is there another one
on under that? Two shirts and a

996
01:16:55,960 --> 01:16:59,159
jacket? Okay, Yeah, that's
not that accessive. It doesn't seem excessive.

997
01:16:59,199 --> 01:17:00,039
But you know, I could see
we're you might if you're looking from

998
01:17:00,039 --> 01:17:05,640
a distance, and Isaac Banks in
the chat room says, I guess this

999
01:17:05,800 --> 01:17:10,640
is for you, specifically, Eric. He said hashtag Eric for I'm Best

1000
01:17:10,800 --> 01:17:15,439
not broken. What's your favorite song
of the Beach Boys? Okay, that's

1001
01:17:15,479 --> 01:17:20,039
a tough question. That's a tough
question. My favorite Beach Boys tune?

1002
01:17:28,479 --> 01:17:31,159
Now, I'm struggling to think of
the It's been so long since I've listened

1003
01:17:31,159 --> 01:17:35,600
to, actually listened to the Beach
Boys. I'm struggling to think. I

1004
01:17:35,680 --> 01:17:39,279
always go, wouldn't it be nice
or good? Vibrations? I mean they're

1005
01:17:39,319 --> 01:17:42,520
not deep cuts at all. Other
words, Yeah, I mean vibrations Right

1006
01:17:42,560 --> 01:17:45,520
now, I don't know that I
could pick one off the top of my

1007
01:17:45,640 --> 01:17:50,119
head. Yeah, I think I
listened to the Beach Boys more just for

1008
01:17:50,239 --> 01:17:55,000
the harmony singing right right, Yeah, no doubt, no doubt. So

1009
01:17:55,079 --> 01:17:57,159
I'll have to get back to I'll
have to get back to that one.

1010
01:17:57,159 --> 01:18:01,800
I apologize for not having an answer
today. He also as exactly. He

1011
01:18:01,880 --> 01:18:05,000
also asks what's your favorite song of
the Outfield? All the Love in the

1012
01:18:05,039 --> 01:18:09,239
World or your Love, So he
gave you two choices. Well, thank

1013
01:18:09,239 --> 01:18:13,239
you. I appreciate the choices.
So your Love would probably be it,

1014
01:18:13,279 --> 01:18:15,399
which I think is a great tune. And we actually we did that one

1015
01:18:15,439 --> 01:18:18,840
for a while too. In fact, I remember when we when we did

1016
01:18:18,880 --> 01:18:21,840
a few we did a couple of
shows with Pat bennettar Oh no kidding.

1017
01:18:23,239 --> 01:18:27,079
This is a number of years ago, and that was our That was our

1018
01:18:27,159 --> 01:18:29,399
hit cover tune that we put right
in the middle of the original set.

1019
01:18:29,560 --> 01:18:31,720
Yeah. I like that. It's
a good two. I can picture you

1020
01:18:31,720 --> 01:18:33,640
guys doing that. Did Do you
have an answer for that? Mark,

1021
01:18:33,640 --> 01:18:36,000
I'd go with the other one.
With the other one, Yeah, Your

1022
01:18:36,119 --> 01:18:39,680
Love is. When I was a
kid and I took guitar lessons, that

1023
01:18:39,760 --> 01:18:41,800
was the first song I ever learned. Is it really? Yeah? That

1024
01:18:41,920 --> 01:18:44,199
I could probably still play it today
and I haven't picked up a guitar.

1025
01:18:44,439 --> 01:18:46,880
I'm a bass player, but I
started on guitar. Yeah, and uh

1026
01:18:47,000 --> 01:18:49,119
yeah, it's just you know,
because it's so easy. It was a

1027
01:18:49,159 --> 01:18:54,359
good starting point, you know that. But you know what's interesting about that

1028
01:18:54,439 --> 01:18:59,319
tune is that the the rhythm of
the guitar is sort of syncopated in an

1029
01:18:59,359 --> 01:19:01,199
interesting way. Like I think he
I don't know whether he thought about it

1030
01:19:01,319 --> 01:19:04,479
or that's just sort of how it
came out. But if I were to

1031
01:19:04,560 --> 01:19:08,039
have written that, I probably would
have kept it straight. But he had

1032
01:19:08,079 --> 01:19:10,800
this little bit of a syncopation to
it, which it makes all the difference

1033
01:19:10,840 --> 01:19:15,119
in the world. Yeah, really
digging that. Yeah, absolutely, Let's

1034
01:19:15,119 --> 01:19:17,920
play another track? You guys,
sure what? Uh? What should we

1035
01:19:18,239 --> 01:19:21,239
what should we go with? Well? Uh, I think you have Lying

1036
01:19:21,319 --> 01:19:27,079
Awake, which is another track from
the EP. Yeah, right, yeah,

1037
01:19:27,520 --> 01:19:29,680
that's all the next one to go
with. We'll go with that one,

1038
01:19:29,760 --> 01:19:31,079
okay. Kind of a different vibe
in this one. Yeah. Oh

1039
01:19:31,239 --> 01:19:34,840
interesting, Okay, and remember everybody, if anyone has an idea of what

1040
01:19:35,039 --> 01:19:39,920
they think the single the next single
should be, we are focus grouping,

1041
01:19:42,239 --> 01:19:45,479
so here we go. Okay.
So this is this is called line awake

1042
01:19:45,880 --> 01:20:10,720
from Best Not Broken. I see
the fade Knights who can never high Rise.

1043
01:20:10,960 --> 01:20:13,600

in the middle of it. Now,

the notes. Side can't but I got

1057
01:21:16,279 --> 01:21:23,279
the words all stuck in my head
and I can't let it go. These

1058
01:21:23,640 --> 01:21:30,640
things they made. This life does
change, set this moment, cray,

1059
01:21:31,279 --> 01:21:36,039
Yeah, I can tell the ras
and the sum shouldn't stayed I'm delivered against

1060
01:21:36,079 --> 01:21:40,359
some habit, but not a way. You can tell the ras and the

1061
01:21:40,439 --> 01:21:44,439
sun shouldn't have stayed up. You
shouldn't have stayed up? Oh lotta,

1062
01:21:44,479 --> 01:21:47,079
I can tell their hazards. Sun
shouldn't have stayed I'm delivered against the habit,

1063
01:21:47,439 --> 01:21:51,159
but I don't you can tell their
asses sum should have stayed up?

1064
01:21:51,399 --> 01:22:21,319
You shouldn't have stayed up? You
know. I don't think until there has

1065
01:22:21,560 --> 01:22:26,720
a sum, shouldn't say it.
I'm believing against an I don't know you

1066
01:22:26,760 --> 01:22:30,159
can tell there has a sum shouldn't
have stayed up? You shouldn't have stayed

1067
01:22:30,319 --> 01:22:33,119
up? Oh, I don't.
I can tell the reason shouldn't say it.

1068
01:22:33,159 --> 01:22:42,439
I'm belisted against. I don't I
tell the shouldn't have stayed I don't

1069
01:22:42,479 --> 01:22:45,680
even till the ras and the sun
shouldn't say it. I'm living against a

1070
01:22:46,199 --> 01:22:49,239
but not way you can tell there
has and some shouldn't have stayed up.

1071
01:22:49,560 --> 01:22:55,159
Shouldn't have stayed up? That I
can tell there has, so shouldn't say

1072
01:22:55,159 --> 01:22:59,680
it. I'm liking against them that
way, I can tell there as such

1073
01:22:59,760 --> 01:23:04,359
should all right? So far I
vote for that one. That is line

1074
01:23:04,399 --> 01:23:09,319
awake. The band is Best Not
Broken, and you are hearing these for

1075
01:23:09,399 --> 01:23:13,199
the first time anywhere my friends,
and we have Eric and Mark from Best

1076
01:23:13,279 --> 01:23:15,920
Not Broken here with us live in
studio. And if you have any thoughts

1077
01:23:15,960 --> 01:23:19,159
on what should be the next single. We've been playing a few songs.

1078
01:23:19,199 --> 01:23:21,359
We have one more to go that
we will play before the end of the

1079
01:23:21,399 --> 01:23:26,199
show. But I love that song. That is so catchy, cool,

1080
01:23:26,319 --> 01:23:29,000
Thank you. We're really happy how
it turned out. That was a big

1081
01:23:29,439 --> 01:23:31,840
journey, that whole song. Yeah, the production and everything. Yeah,

1082
01:23:31,880 --> 01:23:35,840
the production is is more. It
sounds a little more sophisticated, and that

1083
01:23:36,119 --> 01:23:41,560
there's a lot to it electronically that
that maybe isn't any other songs. Yeah,

1084
01:23:41,760 --> 01:23:45,600
it's very moody, but what so
was that challenging to do that?

1085
01:23:45,720 --> 01:23:49,600
It sounds like a are the for
example of the drums, are they is

1086
01:23:49,640 --> 01:23:54,840
that all electronic? Or is you
know? I I know Carlo recorded drums

1087
01:23:54,880 --> 01:23:57,880
to that song. It sounds like
maybe there's some samples in there. Yeah,

1088
01:23:57,920 --> 01:24:00,600
there are so the there's a there
is a real life drum track in

1089
01:24:00,640 --> 01:24:02,079
that tune. In fact, the
whole thing has a real live drum track.

1090
01:24:02,720 --> 01:24:05,359
But there are we this is the
tune where we still let's bring in

1091
01:24:05,479 --> 01:24:11,680
some more contemporary samples and try and
play with a little bit and and give

1092
01:24:11,720 --> 01:24:15,439
it more of a contemporary vibe.
And so there are pieces where we've woven

1093
01:24:15,479 --> 01:24:18,560
in some electronic drums and some electronic
percussion in different parts to kind of give

1094
01:24:18,600 --> 01:24:21,119
it that kind of a vibe.
But it's really kind of a mix of

1095
01:24:21,239 --> 01:24:26,359
acoustic drums and normal acoustic drums and
some electronic stuff. Okay, wow,

1096
01:24:26,479 --> 01:24:29,079
definitely works. Now, I think
that's a hit single right there. I

1097
01:24:29,199 --> 01:24:33,520
really do think it's very very catchy. It sounds very contemporary. No,

1098
01:24:33,840 --> 01:24:36,239
really good. Glad to hear that. Thank you, great chorus. Now,

1099
01:24:36,279 --> 01:24:39,840
who wrote that? Did you guys
write that together? Or who wrote

1100
01:24:39,880 --> 01:24:43,039
that? That is a That is
an Eric tune? Okay, these tunes

1101
01:24:43,119 --> 01:24:45,279
often, you know, they start
in someone's head and then they come into

1102
01:24:45,319 --> 01:24:47,560
the band, and then the band
sort of makes them band tunes. Yeah,

1103
01:24:47,720 --> 01:24:50,960
but that started in my head.
That's more recent one, actually,

1104
01:24:51,039 --> 01:24:54,880
that's that's yeah. Yeah, that
was one of the last ones to kind

1105
01:24:54,920 --> 01:24:59,119
of come into the picture, I
think, aside from the Mountain, which

1106
01:24:59,159 --> 01:25:01,720
is the song where referencing early,
I didn't quite make it to this one,

1107
01:25:02,119 --> 01:25:05,199
right. Yeah, No, that's
that's really good. If you're just

1108
01:25:05,319 --> 01:25:10,479
joining us, we've got two thirds
of a best not Broken in studio with

1109
01:25:10,600 --> 01:25:13,680
us. We have Eric and Mark
and if you have any questions at all

1110
01:25:13,800 --> 01:25:15,960
or any feedback for the band six
three two five oh six oh seven.

1111
01:25:16,279 --> 01:25:20,960
Is the studio line six O three
two five oh six oh seven. Uh.

1112
01:25:21,039 --> 01:25:24,399
The EP comes out November, did
you say? November? Fourth?

1113
01:25:24,439 --> 01:25:27,720
November? Third, November third off
by a day, that's all right,

1114
01:25:28,720 --> 01:25:30,720
And it's called if it Feels Right, Yes, if it feels right,

1115
01:25:30,800 --> 01:25:36,079
yep. It's got five tracks on
it and uh, this is yeah.

1116
01:25:36,119 --> 01:25:39,399
We have one more that we'll play
in a little bit, but uh yeah,

1117
01:25:39,560 --> 01:25:42,319
really good stuff. But that's anyway, that's that would be my my

1118
01:25:42,479 --> 01:25:45,199
pick for the single. Cool.
I'm glad to hear that. But we'll

1119
01:25:45,239 --> 01:25:46,800
see what happens when we play the
can all change? Do you have a

1120
01:25:46,880 --> 01:25:48,960
pick mark? By the way,
have you no? No, I'm a

1121
01:25:49,279 --> 01:25:54,399
I'm Switzerland, you're Switzerland. Really
do you have a pick? Eric in

1122
01:25:54,560 --> 01:25:57,600
mind? Uh? Well, it's
interesting, so I can so. The

1123
01:25:57,680 --> 01:25:59,720
last song that you're gonna play is
not one that's going to be in this

1124
01:26:00,159 --> 01:26:01,840
it's a per song we ever wrote
from years and years old, so you

1125
01:26:01,880 --> 01:26:08,000
can hear you know how far we've
come in a sense, but so human

1126
01:26:08,079 --> 01:26:13,039
emotion and that's the way she likes
it. And lying Awake or the three

1127
01:26:13,079 --> 01:26:15,479
tunes that you played today that are
on the new EP, and I always

1128
01:26:15,560 --> 01:26:19,239
thought that that's the way she likes
it would be the single, the next

1129
01:26:19,279 --> 01:26:24,439
single. Yeah, But as as
are these songs have evolved, and as

1130
01:26:24,479 --> 01:26:27,720
we've listened to them more like you, I've sort of gravitated a little bit

1131
01:26:27,760 --> 01:26:30,800
too Lying Awake, just because it
has more of a contemporary vibe. It's

1132
01:26:30,920 --> 01:26:32,279
it's kind of like there's a groove
that's sort of affectious, you know.

1133
01:26:32,319 --> 01:26:35,199
I like the melodies to that's the
way she likes it. But I've been

1134
01:26:35,199 --> 01:26:39,359
singing in my head for so long
I don't I no longer have any sense

1135
01:26:39,520 --> 01:26:44,960
of objectivity. So depending on either
your listeners or somebody else to tell us

1136
01:26:45,000 --> 01:26:48,279
what should be. So far,
we got one for line Awake. I'm

1137
01:26:48,319 --> 01:26:53,319
digging that. Yeah, Yeah,
definitely Isaac Banks and the Shoffer masks.

1138
01:26:53,520 --> 01:26:56,199
Mark, it looks like this one
is for you, he said, hashtag

1139
01:26:56,359 --> 01:27:00,960
Mark, what's your favorite ABC song? I can only think of what do

1140
01:27:00,960 --> 01:27:03,640
you remember? ABC? No?
I can only think of one. Uh

1141
01:27:04,319 --> 01:27:11,039
that song Isaac shoot that poison arrow
through My That's the only ABC song I

1142
01:27:11,119 --> 01:27:15,720
can remember. I got nothing for
you. I'm really sorry. Yeah,

1143
01:27:15,800 --> 01:27:16,960
I feel like they might have had
one or two other hits, but that's

1144
01:27:16,960 --> 01:27:19,960
the only one I can remember.
Shoot that Poise. I think it's called

1145
01:27:20,000 --> 01:27:24,760
Shoot that Poison Arrow. Isaac is
giving us some good listening homework. We'll

1146
01:27:24,800 --> 01:27:27,560
be going home and checking all this
stuff out. That's right, that's right

1147
01:27:27,840 --> 01:27:30,239
now. Are you guys obviously the
EP will be out soon. Are you

1148
01:27:30,319 --> 01:27:34,159
already thinking about the next one and
planning anything for the next one or are

1149
01:27:34,159 --> 01:27:39,000
you just focused on getting this one
out and then playing a lot of shows

1150
01:27:39,119 --> 01:27:41,359
or what? Yeah, well,
we've been focused on this. I mean

1151
01:27:41,399 --> 01:27:43,720
we have there are a bunch of
tunes, as Mark said earlier's a bunch

1152
01:27:43,720 --> 01:27:45,039
of tunes we've had kicking around for
a long time, and you know,

1153
01:27:45,119 --> 01:27:48,039
there are things in the kitty,
so you know, I mean, we're

1154
01:27:48,119 --> 01:27:51,439
musicians. At some point we'll go
record more stuff, but right now,

1155
01:27:51,600 --> 01:27:56,600
the job is to get this released
and go play some shows to support it

1156
01:27:56,760 --> 01:28:00,359
and see how it goes. Yeah. Yeah, just to get us out

1157
01:28:00,399 --> 01:28:01,960
will be a victory for sure.
Yeah. It's funny. This has been

1158
01:28:02,000 --> 01:28:10,640
definitely probably been definitely probably Yeah.
Well it's this EP has caused the most,

1159
01:28:10,920 --> 01:28:13,439
uh, it's been the most challenging
to release it. I don't know

1160
01:28:13,520 --> 01:28:15,520
why, because it's like the tunes
are the easiest tunes probably we put out,

1161
01:28:15,520 --> 01:28:18,680
but like for some reason it's been
the most challenging. I think we

1162
01:28:18,760 --> 01:28:23,840
were a courage Yeah, I was. I was definitely Yeah. Came into

1163
01:28:23,840 --> 01:28:28,199
play. Miriam Vanish in the chat
room says, I was feeling a little

1164
01:28:28,239 --> 01:28:32,079
bare naked ladies vibe with that last
song. The one before that felt like

1165
01:28:32,880 --> 01:28:36,359
a song called there she goes,
not sure who sings that? I love

1166
01:28:36,439 --> 01:28:40,439
the harmonies? Oh, the one
before? Okay, so the one before,

1167
01:28:40,640 --> 01:28:43,880
which was that's the way she likes
that, that's the way she likes

1168
01:28:43,920 --> 01:28:48,119
it, so she goes. Actually, that's a huge compliment. In fact,

1169
01:28:48,159 --> 01:28:53,520
when we called the we were talking
to the PR people about these tunes

1170
01:28:53,560 --> 01:28:55,720
and they were asking about that song, and they said, what songs can

1171
01:28:55,760 --> 01:28:59,600
you compare it to? And I
said, if people compare this to there

1172
01:28:59,680 --> 01:29:01,560
she goes by the laws, I'm
going to be really thrilled because that's Oh

1173
01:29:02,000 --> 01:29:05,119
that was probably one of my all
time favorite tunes. And I'm sure somewhere

1174
01:29:05,159 --> 01:29:08,479
back when I was dreaming up the
melody, there was some piece of that

1175
01:29:08,640 --> 01:29:10,680
was in my head. So yeah, yeah, that's cool. To hear

1176
01:29:10,720 --> 01:29:13,560
that somebody picked that up. Oh
very cool. Yeah, uh, Will

1177
01:29:13,680 --> 01:29:15,960
Vegas of course, so from Will's
autocare is in the chat room, he

1178
01:29:16,039 --> 01:29:19,399
says, Oh, he says,
hello everyone. Rumor has it that Best

1179
01:29:19,479 --> 01:29:25,399
Not Broken play a great cover of
gg Allen's drink Fight and blank hashtag.

1180
01:29:25,479 --> 01:29:28,439
We say, oh, definitely,
yeah, I can. I can imagine

1181
01:29:28,439 --> 01:29:30,760
you guys, only for the Late
night show. It's a fifth set song,

1182
01:29:30,000 --> 01:29:34,039
right right, we get into some
GGI antics, Clothes come off,

1183
01:29:34,520 --> 01:29:36,840
things get thrown, you know what
I'm talking about. Yeah, we appreciate

1184
01:29:36,880 --> 01:29:40,159
you humoring the soft rocky. I
know, Matt, you're a you're a

1185
01:29:40,760 --> 01:29:44,079
hard rock guy right back from back
in the day. I did play in

1186
01:29:44,239 --> 01:29:47,000
some pretty heavy bands. Yeah,
so this is like, this is like

1187
01:29:47,439 --> 01:29:56,560
Lionel Richie g Ritchie Man. That's
a that's a mashup. Oh. Isaac

1188
01:29:56,640 --> 01:29:59,960
Banks is reminding me of other ABC
songs now because I can't think of any

1189
01:30:00,359 --> 01:30:02,720
The look of Love, She's got, the look, she's got, the

1190
01:30:02,800 --> 01:30:06,840
look familiar at all. Yeah,
I've heard that song O Look of Love

1191
01:30:08,000 --> 01:30:12,159
and and when Smokey Sings that was
their other big hit. According to Isaac

1192
01:30:12,199 --> 01:30:16,319
Banks, you remember that one when
smokey sings. I can only barely remember

1193
01:30:16,439 --> 01:30:23,359
myself, but yeah, yeah,
hashtag Eric you'll know who this is from?

1194
01:30:24,199 --> 01:30:28,560
What's your favorite? Sixpence? None? The richer song? Only one

1195
01:30:28,600 --> 01:30:30,359
I know is kiss Me. I
think that's their only hit, isn't it.

1196
01:30:30,600 --> 01:30:32,840
All I can say is I struggled
to come up with the Beach Boys

1197
01:30:32,880 --> 01:30:38,279
here right right? So yeah,
I don't have an answer to that.

1198
01:30:39,079 --> 01:30:44,399
Yeah, And Miriam said definitely meant
as a compliment about there she goes you.

1199
01:30:45,359 --> 01:30:49,159
Do you ever, you know when
when in terms of talking about things

1200
01:30:49,199 --> 01:30:53,359
that you've been inspired by, and
you were you were inspired by that song?

1201
01:30:54,680 --> 01:30:57,640
Do you ever do either of you
guys ever write anything where you you've

1202
01:30:57,640 --> 01:31:00,079
written a song and then you kind
of realize it maybe it's sounds too close

1203
01:31:00,159 --> 01:31:04,399
to something that you were inspired by, or does that ever happen? This

1204
01:31:04,479 --> 01:31:08,239
has been a topic of conversation on
another show that I'm on that I'm a

1205
01:31:08,319 --> 01:31:13,119
co host so on Retrospectral Radio about
you know when when artists, you know,

1206
01:31:13,279 --> 01:31:15,960
they write something and then they very
often it's just subconscious. They don't

1207
01:31:15,960 --> 01:31:19,199
they don't mean to write something that's
too close to what somebody else has already

1208
01:31:19,239 --> 01:31:24,239
done. But it just it happens
because everybody's inspired by something or influenced by

1209
01:31:24,319 --> 01:31:27,640
something. Does that ever happen to
you, guys? I know for sure

1210
01:31:27,720 --> 01:31:30,159
it has. I'm I don't know
if I can come up with a specific

1211
01:31:30,239 --> 01:31:33,239
example, but I know there's many
times where I'll play something and I'll be

1212
01:31:33,239 --> 01:31:35,760
like, I think that's really good, and I'll have like a demo recorded,

1213
01:31:35,800 --> 01:31:39,640
and then I'll be shuffling stuff on
my phone and then all of a

1214
01:31:39,680 --> 01:31:42,119
sudden, like this song will play
from like twenty years ago, like,

1215
01:31:42,640 --> 01:31:45,239
ah, crap, yeah, I
can't do it's too close. Yeah,

1216
01:31:45,319 --> 01:31:47,800
it's not even like you know,
one of our songs, Like people are

1217
01:31:47,840 --> 01:31:50,600
comparing it to these other songs and
you're like, oh, yeah, no,

1218
01:31:50,680 --> 01:31:53,279
I guess I could see that.
It's kind of like, no,

1219
01:31:53,439 --> 01:31:56,159
I just stole that. I didn't
mean too. I can't put this song

1220
01:31:56,199 --> 01:31:59,600
out. Yeah. Yeah. So
it's really interesting you asked that because literally,

1221
01:31:59,800 --> 01:32:02,680
just yesterday, so I had this
tune that you know, I always

1222
01:32:02,760 --> 01:32:05,279
keep it on my phone. I
keep a list of like the top ideas

1223
01:32:05,720 --> 01:32:09,880
that are candidates for the next EP, and I've got about twenty tunes kicking

1224
01:32:09,920 --> 01:32:12,800
around, and I had this one
that I really liked a little, the

1225
01:32:12,880 --> 01:32:17,399
chorus to it, and and literally
I think I was washing the dishes and

1226
01:32:17,520 --> 01:32:21,439
a song came on the radio and
it was that song. Oh it was,

1227
01:32:21,600 --> 01:32:24,720
And it was literally so close to
the song that I said, there's

1228
01:32:24,800 --> 01:32:28,600
no way that I didn't hear that
song immediately before. It was probably like,

1229
01:32:28,760 --> 01:32:30,319
yeah, lying on the couch,
you know, at midnight, and

1230
01:32:30,399 --> 01:32:33,319
I heard the song and then like
five minutes later I forgot I heard it

1231
01:32:33,359 --> 01:32:36,239
and wrote it again, right,
yeah, Yeah, So that was a

1232
01:32:36,560 --> 01:32:39,800
I had to cross that one off. I said, that's just too close.

1233
01:32:39,920 --> 01:32:41,680
Now. Most of the time,
you know, it's funny because there

1234
01:32:41,680 --> 01:32:44,640
were so many songs that sound like
other tunes. Yes, most of the

1235
01:32:44,760 --> 01:32:46,159
time I get to the point where
I say, you know what, all

1236
01:32:46,199 --> 01:32:49,840
right, it's close, but it's
not, you know, it's not too

1237
01:32:49,920 --> 01:32:54,479
close. Yeah, but that one
was too close. Yeah. I mean,

1238
01:32:54,520 --> 01:32:57,760
it's hard to avoid it entirely because
there's so many there's so many chord

1239
01:32:57,800 --> 01:33:00,479
progressions that are just right, and
you know, bits of melodies that are

1240
01:33:00,520 --> 01:33:05,239
just so common in music. And
yeah, we did. We did a

1241
01:33:05,279 --> 01:33:11,079
few shows on Retrospectrum Radio, the
Friday Night Show about plagiarism, and and

1242
01:33:12,439 --> 01:33:15,239
Paul the Polly See the hosts,
he kept up playing. He would play,

1243
01:33:15,319 --> 01:33:17,960
we would do kind of a compare
thing, compare and contrast. You

1244
01:33:18,039 --> 01:33:21,920
know, all these different examples of
where someone was accused of playiasis and whatnot.

1245
01:33:23,319 --> 01:33:26,199
And on a lot of them,
you know, my I should have

1246
01:33:26,239 --> 01:33:30,279
had a gavel because on many of
these examples, my verdict was not guilty

1247
01:33:30,800 --> 01:33:34,640
because and my argument was, look, the chord progression in this song is,

1248
01:33:34,880 --> 01:33:38,840
yeah, it might sound like this
other song, but it also sounds

1249
01:33:38,920 --> 01:33:42,239
like a million other songs, you
know, because there's just certain things that

1250
01:33:42,399 --> 01:33:46,079
just show up a lot absolute music. So it's hard to avoid it entirely.

1251
01:33:46,840 --> 01:33:49,239
It's it's so true, it's really
hard to I mean, but it's

1252
01:33:49,279 --> 01:33:54,800
it's incredible to me, honestly,
having you know, studied and played music

1253
01:33:54,840 --> 01:33:57,760
for a really long time that you
can have you know, there are only

1254
01:33:57,920 --> 01:34:03,600
like seven notes in in a scale, and there and after that you're repeating

1255
01:34:03,680 --> 01:34:06,039
notes again, and there are only
so many courts, and like most pop

1256
01:34:06,119 --> 01:34:10,960
tunes really are three or four cords. So with the small set of chords

1257
01:34:11,600 --> 01:34:14,760
that are available, the small set
of notes that are available, it's incredible

1258
01:34:14,800 --> 01:34:16,920
to me that people are still writing
original music, because you'd think that everything

1259
01:34:16,920 --> 01:34:19,560
would have been written by now.
Well, I try to push the envelope

1260
01:34:19,600 --> 01:34:24,279
sometimes, but you know this is
where Carlo holds. Yeah, I try

1261
01:34:24,319 --> 01:34:29,359
to put five or maybe six scores
in there. Convers no too many pulls.

1262
01:34:30,279 --> 01:34:32,520
Well, he is the editor,
I know he is. I thought

1263
01:34:32,560 --> 01:34:35,479
he was going to be calling in. I he is. We sent him

1264
01:34:35,479 --> 01:34:39,319
off to drum camp. He had
a couple four gigs and we said,

1265
01:34:39,359 --> 01:34:43,359
Carlo, you gotta go, you
gotta go study. So I thought he

1266
01:34:43,439 --> 01:34:45,640
was going to call in from drum
camp. But apparently he's not, at

1267
01:34:45,760 --> 01:34:47,720
least not as of yet. By
the way, does he play in any

1268
01:34:47,760 --> 01:34:51,560
other bands? And the reason I'm
curious about this is I swear every every

1269
01:34:51,680 --> 01:34:56,239
band I've I've had on the show
for the past year, their drummer is

1270
01:34:56,319 --> 01:35:00,279
in like ten different bands. I
I I don't know when the last was

1271
01:35:00,600 --> 01:35:02,199
that I interviewed a band where the
drummer was only in that one band.

1272
01:35:02,520 --> 01:35:05,159
Is Carlo in Like, Well,
it's funny, I'm I'm pleased to say

1273
01:35:05,239 --> 01:35:08,920
right now he's not. Oh okay, right, but he was so when

1274
01:35:08,960 --> 01:35:12,359
we first started, he was he
was in another band from the area,

1275
01:35:12,560 --> 01:35:15,039
and uh, we were kind of
on the same circuits. How we knew

1276
01:35:15,079 --> 01:35:17,960
each other. Yeah, and ultimately
they they went away and we didn't.

1277
01:35:18,039 --> 01:35:21,720
And so he's with us, but
currently no, but he he definitely has

1278
01:35:21,920 --> 01:35:25,359
Uh, he's had his moments,
you know. Yeah, you know,

1279
01:35:25,439 --> 01:35:27,720
he's There's not a ton of good
drummer around, so you know, they're

1280
01:35:28,000 --> 01:35:30,640
the good drummers are sought after and
they get those calls. Well, I've

1281
01:35:30,640 --> 01:35:33,760
always had a theory that you know, when you're growing up and you're first

1282
01:35:33,840 --> 01:35:36,960
wanting to learn to play an instrument, and you talk to your parents about

1283
01:35:38,000 --> 01:35:39,880
it, you know, I want
to I want to learn to play something.

1284
01:35:40,520 --> 01:35:44,239
If it's drums, your parents are
going to actively discourage you, of

1285
01:35:44,319 --> 01:35:47,479
course from you know, drums.
Now that's too much. Why I want

1286
01:35:47,560 --> 01:35:50,680
to take up guitar, bass or
something, drums or piano or something.

1287
01:35:50,760 --> 01:35:56,479
But so that's that's my theory why
drummers are just in short supply because nobody's

1288
01:35:56,560 --> 01:36:00,960
parents wants a drum set in the
house. I think there's true to that.

1289
01:36:01,039 --> 01:36:03,520
Yeah, nobody wants to learn on
an electric kit. I think it's

1290
01:36:03,520 --> 01:36:06,920
not quite the same. I mean, they're pretty amazing but the same right

1291
01:36:08,119 --> 01:36:11,720
right, yeah, exactly, Well, I want to make sure we get

1292
01:36:11,880 --> 01:36:15,279
We have one more song to play, and I am curious to play this

1293
01:36:15,439 --> 01:36:18,720
because now this so this is going
back to the beginning of the band.

1294
01:36:18,800 --> 01:36:21,479
Look at what Look what You did? I'm sorry, yeah, they Look

1295
01:36:21,520 --> 01:36:25,840
what You Did is the name of
the song. It's it's the first song

1296
01:36:25,960 --> 01:36:28,760
that we ever recorded, and I'm
trying to remember. I think it was.

1297
01:36:29,439 --> 01:36:31,720
I think we put it out in
twenty twelve. I think it's twenty

1298
01:36:31,800 --> 01:36:33,920
twelve, yes, and we were
working on it for a little while before

1299
01:36:33,960 --> 01:36:38,119
that. But yeah, so this
is the first tune we ever recorded.

1300
01:36:38,159 --> 01:36:42,960
We did this down with Dave Minahan
at Willie Mammoth. Okay, and you

1301
01:36:43,039 --> 01:36:45,239
know, so you can hear the
difference from where we started and where we

1302
01:36:45,319 --> 01:36:49,119
are now. And it was the
lineup as it exists today, totally different.

1303
01:36:50,119 --> 01:36:51,760
Oh, you were not here.
I joined the band I think a

1304
01:36:51,880 --> 01:36:56,119
twenty fifteen. Oh okay, so
I guess I've been in eight years.

1305
01:36:56,239 --> 01:37:00,000
Yeah, Carlo was shortly before Mark, and so this was just I think

1306
01:37:00,159 --> 01:37:06,199
this is just before the Carlo and
Mark era. Hashtag bald Rhythm. All

1307
01:37:06,279 --> 01:37:09,479
right, so this will be interesting, Okay, so this is the first

1308
01:37:09,560 --> 01:37:13,479
track ever recorded by Best not Broken. This is called look what you did?

1309
01:37:13,720 --> 01:37:41,479
Check this out? Walk you wait
that night under the traffic. Nice

1310
01:37:43,199 --> 01:37:55,279
sucking of you when you wanted to
game, saying I'm going somewhere, maybe

1311
01:37:55,479 --> 01:38:02,880

guess where the lights will always shine,

1313

1323
01:40:01,039 --> 01:40:08,680
can't bet if we change out of
sets. I thought you were gone.

1324

We'll we'll finish out with that one
too. This one's great too. This

1383
01:44:17,800 --> 01:44:26,520
is really catchy. Although my vote
for my vote for the single line away,

1384
01:44:27,159 --> 01:44:30,680
what a catchy. I think I'm
leaning that way too, yeah,

1385
01:44:30,880 --> 01:44:33,920
currently, yeah, no, it's
I really think that's the one. That's

1386
01:44:33,960 --> 01:44:38,159
That's my advice, all right,
But I'll leave you with this. This

1387
01:44:38,279 --> 01:44:40,359
is Human Emotion from Best Not Broken.
