WEBVTT

1
00:00:00.360 --> 00:00:06.679
Well, my fucking panties off.
Go. Let's got episode eighty seven of

2
00:00:06.719 --> 00:00:11.359
the Playpants Podcast. That's rod Ryan
OLAPOPI. I'm Jason Ginty, and we

3
00:00:11.400 --> 00:00:15.080
are ready to go with an exciting
episode where we are going to cover so

4
00:00:15.199 --> 00:00:19.480
much dumb shit your head's gonna implode, which is basically what we should call

5
00:00:19.519 --> 00:00:21.160
like the you know how you have
like a title, then you have like

6
00:00:21.239 --> 00:00:25.320
a subtitle. You know, the
Playpants Podcast. We're gonna cover so much

7
00:00:25.359 --> 00:00:29.079
dumb shit your head will implode.
Well, but you know, as my

8
00:00:29.120 --> 00:00:31.679
boss, as my boss would tell
me, and as you as a program

9
00:00:31.719 --> 00:00:35.600
director, now you would talk to
your staff and you would say, well,

10
00:00:36.439 --> 00:00:42.560
let's implement some word economy here.
So what you would say is podcasts

11
00:00:42.600 --> 00:00:46.799
eighty seven, and then take what
you said and then we would just type

12
00:00:46.799 --> 00:00:51.600
out more dumb shit. Yep,
yep, yeah, I love that phrase

13
00:00:51.719 --> 00:00:56.479
word economy. Well. As a
guy that talks a lot, I've been

14
00:00:56.520 --> 00:01:03.079
on the receiving end of that more
than once in a heating conversation with an

15
00:01:03.079 --> 00:01:07.519
authoritative person. Yeah, those authoritative
people probably aren't on the radio, haven't

16
00:01:07.519 --> 00:01:08.840
been for years. That's what's fun
about that, right, that's a whole

17
00:01:08.840 --> 00:01:11.319
other discussion for another day. Man, we're gonna a lot to cover today.

18
00:01:12.000 --> 00:01:18.640
The great, the great Priscilla Presley
having a seventy eighth birthday this week,

19
00:01:19.359 --> 00:01:23.519
of course, Elvis Presley's ex wife. So Rod had a great idea,

20
00:01:23.040 --> 00:01:29.959
let's talk about rock star wives and
girlfriends and relationships, and there are

21
00:01:30.000 --> 00:01:34.040
some really cool ones I cannot wait
to dive into today. And I don't

22
00:01:34.040 --> 00:01:36.680
think it's a hands down winner.
I mean, Priscilla is going to be

23
00:01:36.760 --> 00:01:40.239
up there, but I don't know
that she is the most famous rock star

24
00:01:40.359 --> 00:01:42.400
wife of all time. I don't
know that I'm ready to crown her that,

25
00:01:42.599 --> 00:01:46.560
but she's got a great argument for
it. So I can't wait to

26
00:01:46.599 --> 00:01:49.239
get into that. And then Lenny
Kravitz has a birthday this week as well.

27
00:01:49.280 --> 00:01:53.000
He turns fifty nine. Doesn't look
at day over twenty three, son

28
00:01:53.040 --> 00:01:57.079
of a bitch. Yeah, he's
a vampire. He is so freaking cool.

29
00:01:57.159 --> 00:02:01.120
And I just watched a couple of
weeks goes some like little five minute

30
00:02:01.159 --> 00:02:05.200
YouTube thing and he's got this place
down the Bahamas or he's working on a

31
00:02:05.239 --> 00:02:07.599
new album and he's like, yeah, I just got up and I lift

32
00:02:07.639 --> 00:02:10.639
and I run and then I eat
wheat, grass or where the fuck he

33
00:02:10.639 --> 00:02:14.840
eats, and it's like he's in
perfect shape and he's just got this regiment,

34
00:02:15.240 --> 00:02:17.039
and it's like, man, I
gotta be honest. If I could

35
00:02:17.080 --> 00:02:22.000
live on an island and ride a
horse around and have a trainer and eat

36
00:02:22.039 --> 00:02:25.719
the right food, I'd still be
a piece of shit. But he looked

37
00:02:25.759 --> 00:02:31.039
awesome always, even when he lived
in New Orleans, I know he always

38
00:02:31.039 --> 00:02:37.120
looked amazing. His condo was just
a block away from where mine is,

39
00:02:37.400 --> 00:02:40.319
and it's still there. I remember
when it was kind of up for sale,

40
00:02:40.800 --> 00:02:45.599
and that was cool because then they
showed pictures online to see what it

41
00:02:45.639 --> 00:02:47.479
looked like. So we can talk
a little bit about that too. We're

42
00:02:47.479 --> 00:02:52.080
gonna run down his top five or
our top five favorite Lenny Kravitz songs.

43
00:02:52.120 --> 00:02:53.840
I don't think we did it,
you asked me. I didn't think about

44
00:02:53.919 --> 00:02:57.599
even checking up to see if we
did. If we did, I'm sure

45
00:02:57.639 --> 00:03:00.759
it'll be different songs this time,
because it always seems to change. And

46
00:03:00.800 --> 00:03:05.759
then we're gonna get into a Memorial
Day weekend is this weekend that we record

47
00:03:05.840 --> 00:03:09.639
this episode. And Rod's got a
few uh, we's got one recommendation and

48
00:03:10.439 --> 00:03:16.000
I remember this vividly. You recommended
this movie to watch Memorial Day Weekend last

49
00:03:16.080 --> 00:03:21.240
year. And guess who hasn't seen
the movie yet. You you know,

50
00:03:21.400 --> 00:03:25.719
dipshit right here. You know who
did watch it. Michael stands, Oh

51
00:03:25.840 --> 00:03:30.159
goody love. Mike stands. He
listens to. He listens to just about

52
00:03:30.199 --> 00:03:35.039
every one of these and uh.
And I remember him hitting me back saying,

53
00:03:35.159 --> 00:03:38.439
man, thank you for that recommendation
for that movie. Wow, you

54
00:03:38.479 --> 00:03:43.240
were right. That is the Memorial
Day movie. So we'll talk about that,

55
00:03:43.280 --> 00:03:45.919
and we'll talk about the real reason
that we have Memorial Day Weekend.

56
00:03:45.960 --> 00:03:49.759
It's not just grilling and mattress sales
and all that sort of thing. I

57
00:03:49.879 --> 00:03:52.759
was actually going to ask you that
about how you handling that with your radio

58
00:03:52.759 --> 00:03:54.800
station, because it is obviously the
grill and chilling, getting hammered, having

59
00:03:54.800 --> 00:03:59.000
friends over pool parties, grilling,
which you you know, as a radio

60
00:03:59.039 --> 00:04:01.240
station, you want to reflect what
your listeners are doing. This is the

61
00:04:01.280 --> 00:04:04.840
program director talking now, right.
You always want to reflect what the lifestyle

62
00:04:04.919 --> 00:04:09.360
is happening in the moment. But
then I talk to my staff and I'm

63
00:04:09.400 --> 00:04:12.599
like, man, you know what, there's a real reason we have the

64
00:04:12.639 --> 00:04:16.439
barbecues. Man, it's it's the
people who gave the ultimate sacrifice. So

65
00:04:16.480 --> 00:04:19.000
you've got to balance that, Like, how do you approach it? Because

66
00:04:19.040 --> 00:04:23.000
I know your morning show you've got, you know, your listeners love you

67
00:04:23.000 --> 00:04:27.720
and all that stuff, So how
do you approach it? Well, because

68
00:04:27.759 --> 00:04:30.560
we have people that have been listening
a long time, they kind of know

69
00:04:30.600 --> 00:04:34.240
who you are, so you don't
always have to You can just you can

70
00:04:34.279 --> 00:04:40.720
do a whole break talking about chili
peeing in the pool and hot dogs on

71
00:04:40.759 --> 00:04:43.920
the grill, and you could talk
about Memorial Day weekend and how excited you

72
00:04:43.959 --> 00:04:46.920
are and man, we don't got
to work. You can do that whole

73
00:04:46.000 --> 00:04:48.439
thing and I won't get one email. Well, Rod, it was kind

74
00:04:48.480 --> 00:04:54.160
of disrespectful. You didn't mention the
real reason if we're if we're taking care

75
00:04:54.600 --> 00:04:58.879
and talking about the military and showing
our appreciation year round, which we do

76
00:04:59.480 --> 00:05:02.480
and all of and it's it comes
from a real genuine place from everybody on

77
00:05:02.519 --> 00:05:05.160
the show. Like I don't I
don't have to tell anybody, Hey,

78
00:05:05.279 --> 00:05:10.839
make sure you know you act like
you appreciate the military. It's never anything

79
00:05:10.839 --> 00:05:14.279
that I have to force upon anyone. Everyone genuinely really does feel that way,

80
00:05:14.360 --> 00:05:17.160
and it comes up throughout the year. So we're covered right now.

81
00:05:17.199 --> 00:05:21.279
I will I will say, like
I said already, Okay, it's not

82
00:05:21.439 --> 00:05:26.120
just hot dogs on the grill.
There's a reason, Okay, those that

83
00:05:26.199 --> 00:05:31.759
made the ultimate sacrifice. Where people
get it's kind of like you know,

84
00:05:31.959 --> 00:05:36.560
when you when you come across somebody
that's Jewish and you tell them Mary Christmas.

85
00:05:38.240 --> 00:05:40.959
I don't know one. I don't
have one Jewish friend that gets upset

86
00:05:41.079 --> 00:05:48.240
being told Mary Christmas. Okay,
but one year I won't say his name.

87
00:05:48.279 --> 00:05:53.720
He worked at the radio station and
he kind of was thanking veterans,

88
00:05:54.480 --> 00:05:58.160
and his whole thing, his whole
spiel was, you know, thanking veterans

89
00:05:58.199 --> 00:06:02.800
and really appreciate, you know,
all the veterans and didn't specifically say,

90
00:06:03.040 --> 00:06:06.920
you know, Memorial Day weekend is
specifically for the men and women that made

91
00:06:06.920 --> 00:06:12.759
the ultimate sacrifice. And he took
a little crap for that, and I

92
00:06:12.759 --> 00:06:15.160
said, it's not coming from a
place of being mean, you know,

93
00:06:15.279 --> 00:06:19.639
and it's not even overly ignorant.
He was just really excited about anyone that

94
00:06:19.720 --> 00:06:28.480
served the country. Because he didn't
but because he didn't specifically state what Memorial

95
00:06:28.600 --> 00:06:31.439
Day was about, he caught some
shit online and then you know, online

96
00:06:31.480 --> 00:06:34.240
people start to kind of just pile
on. And I thought it was really

97
00:06:34.319 --> 00:06:40.399
unwarranted. You know, I guess
you know, you're really not supposed to

98
00:06:40.439 --> 00:06:44.639
say happy Memorial Day weekend. Now, let's feel a little weird. But

99
00:06:44.839 --> 00:06:50.160
again, it's not coming from a
place of your trying to be mean or

100
00:06:50.199 --> 00:06:54.639
insensitive. It's like, man,
have a good long weekend, have a

101
00:06:54.680 --> 00:06:58.600
great Memorial Day weekend. There's some
people that have a problem with that,

102
00:06:59.800 --> 00:07:02.920
the nuns and the priests. When
I was a little kid, you wouldn't

103
00:07:02.920 --> 00:07:06.759
say happy Good Friday. Good Friday
is supposed to be a terrible day.

104
00:07:06.879 --> 00:07:11.480
It's the most holy day. It's
a solemn day. It's when Jesus is

105
00:07:11.519 --> 00:07:17.240
going through hell. If somebody says
happy good Friday to you and it ruins

106
00:07:17.279 --> 00:07:21.079
your day, then come on,
you know. So the same thing kind

107
00:07:21.079 --> 00:07:26.800
of goes with Memorial Day. Okay, let's be very clear that this is

108
00:07:26.839 --> 00:07:31.399
the one that is for those that
died serving the country. Okay, but

109
00:07:31.519 --> 00:07:34.160
I don't think we've got to get
too upset about it, man. You

110
00:07:34.199 --> 00:07:38.959
know, I think he was coming
from a point where, hey, man,

111
00:07:39.040 --> 00:07:41.839
make sure you think a veteran.
Well, we're thanking people that aren't

112
00:07:41.879 --> 00:07:44.879
here to thank That's what this weekend's
about, right, But I don't think

113
00:07:44.879 --> 00:07:47.959
you need to grill somebody over that. No. No, And I've seen

114
00:07:48.000 --> 00:07:50.600
it had before, some some military
guys, and you know they're like,

115
00:07:50.639 --> 00:07:54.439
well, you know that's uh,
that's that's that's that's for you know,

116
00:07:54.560 --> 00:07:57.160
veteran's day. Thinking of veteran.
I'm like, dude, we're thanking you.

117
00:07:57.199 --> 00:08:00.920
Who cares? You know? I
mean, you know what I mean.

118
00:08:01.079 --> 00:08:01.879
And I get it. It gets
a little sensitive. And that's why

119
00:08:01.879 --> 00:08:05.959
I was asking because I used to
just be like, yeah, we're talking

120
00:08:05.000 --> 00:08:09.480
about beers and hot dogs and the
whole thing. But because we're a little

121
00:08:09.519 --> 00:08:11.959
more sensitive age, and it's like, well, you know, you can

122
00:08:11.959 --> 00:08:15.480
talk about like you said, you
talk about it, but then you also

123
00:08:15.920 --> 00:08:18.399
go the other way with it.
So it's just a balanced it's kind of

124
00:08:18.399 --> 00:08:20.040
the deal. That's what we're doing
to all weekend, just balance the two.

125
00:08:20.519 --> 00:08:24.560
If you were to send out an
email to your staff, I would

126
00:08:24.600 --> 00:08:28.519
say something to the effect of what
I did, you know, just again,

127
00:08:30.040 --> 00:08:33.799
if you're appreciative of the military man, that's I see that all is

128
00:08:33.919 --> 00:08:37.080
upside. But if you really want
to be specific, make sure that the

129
00:08:37.120 --> 00:08:43.120
messaging is hey, those that gave
all and showing you, you know,

130
00:08:43.159 --> 00:08:46.240
the appreciation for the ultimate sacrifice.
So we will talk about a movie.

131
00:08:46.360 --> 00:08:52.039
At least one person that listens to
this podcast watched the movie last year.

132
00:08:52.080 --> 00:08:56.799
I will watch it this weekend at
some point. Can we take a look

133
00:08:56.840 --> 00:09:00.960
real quick at YouTube from last week? Yeah? Yeah, And then I

134
00:09:01.000 --> 00:09:03.559
want to ask you a very a
dude question. Okay, it's important it

135
00:09:03.600 --> 00:09:07.080
actually folds into the grilling thing,
so yeah, do it. Well.

136
00:09:07.120 --> 00:09:11.240
I was I was happy that Melissa, Melissa Goulsby hit us up on YouTube

137
00:09:11.279 --> 00:09:18.679
because that was her suggestion for the
Tom Hanks and again she stopped shy from

138
00:09:18.679 --> 00:09:22.000
giving me her top five. But
Melissa was our inspiration for coming up with

139
00:09:22.039 --> 00:09:26.639
what we did last week. And
Melissa says, the movie Big was one

140
00:09:26.639 --> 00:09:33.159
of my top five money pit is
absolutely hysteric, hilarious. And the Green

141
00:09:33.360 --> 00:09:39.000
Mile, oh shit, dude,
did did the Green Mile? Even even

142
00:09:39.039 --> 00:09:43.279
if it wasn't in our top fives, the Green Miles should have been mentioned

143
00:09:43.399 --> 00:09:46.159
last week, correct, Yeah,
because it was a bit of a different

144
00:09:46.240 --> 00:09:48.320
role for Tom Hanks in that in
that movie too, and that movie's great

145
00:09:48.559 --> 00:09:54.720
that he kind of because he kind
of wasn't the star, right right,

146
00:09:54.919 --> 00:09:58.120
Um, I mean he was,
but you know it didn't it didn't he

147
00:09:58.519 --> 00:10:03.279
I would say that he was the
number two in that movie period. Melissa,

148
00:10:03.480 --> 00:10:07.600
you're right, thank you. The
green mild definitely should have been mentioned.

149
00:10:09.039 --> 00:10:15.080
What in the blue fuck Jason and
I say that all the time ever,

150
00:10:15.840 --> 00:10:18.759
And that's James Cromwell, right,
Yeah, he's so great. When

151
00:10:18.759 --> 00:10:22.519
they fry the guy, he doesn't
go well and he's burning his face and

152
00:10:22.559 --> 00:10:28.159
shit, and he comes down the
stairs Percy. Percy doesn't put the water

153
00:10:28.279 --> 00:10:33.120
on the sponge what it was,
and then the the electric chair goes wrong

154
00:10:33.279 --> 00:10:37.399
and there's this horrific scene and there's
always you know back the movie takes place,

155
00:10:37.679 --> 00:10:41.320
I'm gonna guess in the forties or
fifties. Yeah, and uh there

156
00:10:41.320 --> 00:10:46.120
were still witnesses there and it was
just horrific. Apparently you need to have

157
00:10:46.200 --> 00:10:50.039
water on that sponge when you when
you spiraled it down on the head when

158
00:10:50.080 --> 00:10:54.279
you clamped it down, and uh
so it was a big mistake. And

159
00:10:54.519 --> 00:11:00.000
the guys are in the back room
and James Cromwell is the warden and he's

160
00:11:00.360 --> 00:11:05.559
what in the blue fuck was that? And I don't know, you and

161
00:11:05.600 --> 00:11:09.200
I must be watching that movie together
and we just knew, Okay, there's

162
00:11:09.200 --> 00:11:13.480
something that's going to be said for
the next ten years. Yeah. Yeah.

163
00:11:13.519 --> 00:11:15.759
It's like it's like, you know, we're gonna be beating the shit

164
00:11:15.799 --> 00:11:20.120
out of the fucking what no Way
guy for the next ten years. It's

165
00:11:20.120 --> 00:11:22.639
like, it doesn't happen all the
time, but what it does, we

166
00:11:22.679 --> 00:11:26.799
will beat it but dust. But
when you do what we do, it

167
00:11:26.960 --> 00:11:28.879
just becomes a part of your gig. Now, when you watch a movie,

168
00:11:30.000 --> 00:11:33.440
even if it's a newer movie,
and something's really funny, you listen

169
00:11:33.480 --> 00:11:35.919
to that soundclip and you wonder,
hey, would that sound funny on the

170
00:11:37.000 --> 00:11:41.639
radio? Right as soon as I
mean, I don't just popped in my

171
00:11:41.679 --> 00:11:46.000
head, but in the movie Old
School, as soon as Vince Vaughn said,

172
00:11:46.519 --> 00:11:52.919
oh yeah, cheese, I fucking
knew that would kill on the radio.

173
00:11:52.279 --> 00:11:56.039
Just playing that isolated, even if
you didn't see the movie Old School

174
00:11:58.200 --> 00:12:03.080
Cheese, that was gonna be a
funny drop. And we still I probably

175
00:12:03.159 --> 00:12:05.399
used it. This week there was
a story about cheese or something. People

176
00:12:05.519 --> 00:12:11.840
can't open up the American craft slices
and we played it on the air like

177
00:12:11.960 --> 00:12:15.240
three times the other day. Well, it's like every time somebody swears around

178
00:12:15.279 --> 00:12:20.240
a kid earmuffs, earmuffs. Yeah, it's the same concept. So yeah,

179
00:12:20.320 --> 00:12:22.240
yeah, no, that was a
great Top five last week. The

180
00:12:22.279 --> 00:12:26.600
Tom Hanks say, I end up. It happens every time I like edit

181
00:12:26.720 --> 00:12:30.879
stuff together and put everything and then
put it up on so people can listen

182
00:12:30.919 --> 00:12:33.279
to it on Thursday on Wednesday nights. So I'm doing that. But then

183
00:12:33.279 --> 00:12:37.639
of course I'm I'm thinking about the
conversation. I'm going back and listen to

184
00:12:37.879 --> 00:12:41.200
just bits and pieces of the podcast
as I'm putting it together, and then

185
00:12:41.240 --> 00:12:43.919
I'm like, oh, yeah,
shit, let me go check this thing

186
00:12:43.919 --> 00:12:46.159
about Tom Hanks. So what should
take me about fifteen minutes to do?

187
00:12:46.480 --> 00:12:50.960
It takes me about two hours.
Everyone's start getting I start getting lost in

188
00:12:52.000 --> 00:12:54.720
YouTube and looking up shits, so
I gotta I gotta get more disciplined.

189
00:12:54.759 --> 00:12:58.600
But yeah, the Tom Hanks thing
is is pretty badass, all right.

190
00:12:58.759 --> 00:13:03.960
NOCF Quick Top five, Tom Hanks
number five, Road to Perdition number four,

191
00:13:03.080 --> 00:13:07.960
The Burbs number three, Big number
two, Saving Private Ryan number one,

192
00:13:09.120 --> 00:13:13.879
Money Pit number one. Now I
did talk about how funny that movie

193
00:13:13.000 --> 00:13:18.120
is and still to this day,
Tom Hanks okay, speaking of like a

194
00:13:18.200 --> 00:13:22.919
drop that gets played on the radio, because the funniest moment is when Tom

195
00:13:22.960 --> 00:13:26.919
Hanks goes through the floor, right
and then he's sitting there and he's making

196
00:13:26.960 --> 00:13:31.840
the little money and he's making the
little paper airplanes. But maybe the funniest

197
00:13:31.879 --> 00:13:35.279
thing in that movie, which I
will play this on the air, is

198
00:13:35.320 --> 00:13:39.720
when they're filling the bathtub and it
goes through the floor down to the first

199
00:13:39.759 --> 00:13:43.919
floor, and then he does that
laugh. It's brilliant. He does that

200
00:13:43.000 --> 00:13:46.960
laugh like he's just losing his mind. And I'm not going to get into

201
00:13:46.039 --> 00:13:48.879
what the money pits about, but
he is absolutely at the end of his

202
00:13:48.960 --> 00:13:54.600
rope. And Tom Hanks has a
laugh, no doubt about it, Like

203
00:13:54.639 --> 00:13:56.960
you know, Seth Seth Rogan has
a laugh. Tom Hanks has a laugh

204
00:13:58.360 --> 00:14:03.600
that is very very much. But
this is the greatest one ever. And

205
00:14:03.759 --> 00:14:05.440
that drop. I use that on
the air all the time because it's just

206
00:14:05.639 --> 00:14:11.000
instantly makes you laugh. It's just
when you play it on the air by

207
00:14:11.039 --> 00:14:16.919
itself, you can't not smile at
least hearing that. And it always makes

208
00:14:16.919 --> 00:14:18.759
me know that I watched a lot
of these movies and that movie's been out

209
00:14:18.759 --> 00:14:22.279
forever. Is like I said,
there, I think, well, you

210
00:14:22.360 --> 00:14:24.799
know, was that something that just
said laughs and kind of loses it and

211
00:14:24.840 --> 00:14:28.360
then Tom Hanks just takes and expands
on it, or they did they do

212
00:14:28.720 --> 00:14:31.120
that scene like seven times until he
got it right? You know what I

213
00:14:31.120 --> 00:14:35.799
mean? Those are those moments in
movies where you're like, did he just

214
00:14:35.799 --> 00:14:39.080
fucking do that, you know what
I mean? Or was it plotted out

215
00:14:39.120 --> 00:14:41.639
and planned out? Because sometimes it
just you just get lucky. Yeah,

216
00:14:41.639 --> 00:14:46.559
I mean you clearly can't. A
writer cannot type out the laugh it just

217
00:14:46.600 --> 00:14:50.600
said, you know, you would
have to say losing your mind hysterically laughing,

218
00:14:50.679 --> 00:14:52.360
you know, like you're at the
end of your rope. They can

219
00:14:52.399 --> 00:14:56.279
do all these descriptive things, but
Tom's just got to do it right.

220
00:14:56.320 --> 00:15:01.200
So yeah, I would put that. Even if I had five minutes with

221
00:15:01.279 --> 00:15:09.399
Tom Hanks, I would ask him
that question the laugh the laugh in money

222
00:15:09.440 --> 00:15:13.600
pit, how many takes? And
I mean I wouldn't take up a lot

223
00:15:13.600 --> 00:15:16.440
of time with that, but it'd
be funny. I would absolutely sandwich that

224
00:15:16.559 --> 00:15:20.399
into a Tom Hanks interview. I
really think it's would be that important.

225
00:15:20.440 --> 00:15:24.080
I mean, there'd be a million, obviously a million things to ask him,

226
00:15:24.080 --> 00:15:28.960
but that certainly would be one.
One more here Michael Martinez, Oh

227
00:15:30.000 --> 00:15:33.919
no, that was Michael. Oh
no, this is Michael. Here we

228
00:15:33.960 --> 00:15:39.159
go The Burbs in at five again
with the Burbs Money Money Pit at four,

229
00:15:39.320 --> 00:15:41.200
Road to Perdition at three, A
League of their Own at two,

230
00:15:41.600 --> 00:15:46.960
Saving Private Ryan at one man people. Because we talked about how Tom Hanks

231
00:15:48.399 --> 00:15:52.240
kind of had, you know,
the young career and then everything else,

232
00:15:52.240 --> 00:15:56.279
like if you really kind of cut
his his span of movies almost in half.

233
00:15:56.799 --> 00:15:58.480
You know, some of the young
stuff was silly. I mean,

234
00:15:58.519 --> 00:16:00.639
I love Bachelor Party and all that, really silly, silly stuff. But

235
00:16:02.320 --> 00:16:04.159
you know, we didn't know that
Tom Hanks was going to become the biggest

236
00:16:04.200 --> 00:16:08.559
actor in the world. Was he
was? He splash, Yeah, okay,

237
00:16:08.559 --> 00:16:11.279
I thought so. I'm like sitting
here going, oh, we didn't

238
00:16:11.320 --> 00:16:17.200
even talk about that. That's Turner
and Hooch first run. Yeah, that's

239
00:16:17.279 --> 00:16:19.559
first fun Tom Hanks. Yeah,
that's the first fifteen years Tom Hanks.

240
00:16:21.679 --> 00:16:26.919
By the way, NCF, wouldn't
ten duck sized bears be like ten pit

241
00:16:26.039 --> 00:16:30.159
bulls. I would have to go
with the one giant duck good point.

242
00:16:30.960 --> 00:16:33.120
Yeah, that was a weird question
that came out of the left field,

243
00:16:33.120 --> 00:16:37.240
and people kept hitting on that.
I'm like, okay, I canna keep

244
00:16:37.279 --> 00:16:40.320
my weird fun questions in myself.
This was an easier question, Rod.

245
00:16:40.639 --> 00:16:45.120
Okay, So last weekend had some
people over, you know, pool hanging,

246
00:16:45.360 --> 00:16:47.559
everyone's drinking, having a night.
You know, it's just a nice

247
00:16:47.600 --> 00:16:51.279
little time, great time. So
a guy is on the grill, right

248
00:16:51.279 --> 00:16:53.320
and he's cooking. He's like,
yeah, I got it. Okay,

249
00:16:53.360 --> 00:16:56.080
cool, you got it. I'm
chilling in the water. I don't want

250
00:16:56.080 --> 00:16:57.200
to get out, no big deal. I think nothing of it. Yeah,

251
00:16:57.200 --> 00:17:00.320
man, you want to cook the
burgers? You do it? Is

252
00:17:00.320 --> 00:17:03.519
this at your house? Is it
my house? Somebody's using the grill at

253
00:17:03.519 --> 00:17:07.400
your house? Which was gonna be
my question, Okay, obviously the answer,

254
00:17:07.559 --> 00:17:11.119
Oh my god, this is crazy. This is the same cover.

255
00:17:11.880 --> 00:17:21.000
So I'm sitting what no way,
damn it. So I'm in the pool

256
00:17:21.079 --> 00:17:23.079
and then like so that like he's
fucking up the burgers. Whoever this dude

257
00:17:23.079 --> 00:17:25.519
is, he's sucking them up.
So I get out. I'm like,

258
00:17:25.519 --> 00:17:26.640
a right, you have flames born
out and shit. I'm like all right,

259
00:17:26.640 --> 00:17:30.079
So I go over and I cooked, and then my buddy comes over.

260
00:17:30.079 --> 00:17:32.680
Who's in the pool. But he
goes, I go, yeah,

261
00:17:32.720 --> 00:17:33.720
man, I said your burgers might
be a little fucked up. And he

262
00:17:33.759 --> 00:17:37.720
goes, He goes, what the
fuck is this? You're letting somebody use

263
00:17:37.759 --> 00:17:41.039
your grill? There? You go, Yeah, I am, it's right

264
00:17:41.119 --> 00:17:42.799
fucking here. Why wouldn't I was
in the pool. I don't give a

265
00:17:42.799 --> 00:17:48.880
shit who cooks. Start giving a
ship, dude, it's your your house.

266
00:17:48.000 --> 00:17:55.640
It is an absolute thing. It
is a thing. Now, if

267
00:17:55.680 --> 00:17:59.880
somebody brings over something specific to put
on the grill, then okay. Like

268
00:18:00.400 --> 00:18:04.759
so Chile, he goes to the
Mexican meat market and he gets the most

269
00:18:04.880 --> 00:18:12.559
tender, but he to meat and
it's already pre all pre marinated and everything.

270
00:18:12.599 --> 00:18:17.240
It's amazing. I kind of let
him do that. But I'm already

271
00:18:17.279 --> 00:18:18.559
doing, you know, the burgers
and the grills and doing it, you

272
00:18:18.559 --> 00:18:22.279
know, and all of that stuff. Right, if somebody brings something over

273
00:18:22.720 --> 00:18:23.880
specific, I'll hey, you know
what, I don't want to wreck that.

274
00:18:25.079 --> 00:18:29.799
I'm not familiar with that whatever.
But if it's hamburgers and hot dogs

275
00:18:30.079 --> 00:18:33.319
and it's at your house. You
heard my reaction because I needed to know

276
00:18:33.359 --> 00:18:37.160
immediately, Wait a minute, a
dude is using the grill? Would you

277
00:18:37.240 --> 00:18:41.200
let him make out with your wife? I mean, it's wow. I

278
00:18:41.559 --> 00:18:45.160
just was. I was like,
I looked at my buddy just like I'm

279
00:18:45.160 --> 00:18:48.640
looking at you, like, okay, it's fine. Like like if you

280
00:18:48.680 --> 00:18:52.319
came into my house right and and
we're hanging out cooking and stuff, or

281
00:18:52.359 --> 00:18:55.680
we're gonna cook some burgers. Yeah, I know you're a fucking better cook

282
00:18:55.720 --> 00:18:56.559
than I am, So I'm gonna
be like, bro, you wanna hit

283
00:18:56.599 --> 00:19:00.200
that grill like I would have.
No, I'm be like because I know

284
00:19:00.240 --> 00:19:03.200
you know what you're fucking doing better
than I will. So I didn't.

285
00:19:03.240 --> 00:19:08.880
I don't give a shit. I
really give outdo rando. It was somebody

286
00:19:08.880 --> 00:19:11.880
a new cook, and so,
okay, care about that. But but

287
00:19:11.960 --> 00:19:14.400
he's like, hey man, can
I get the grill going. I'm like,

288
00:19:14.480 --> 00:19:15.400
yeah, I do it. I'm
chilling the water. So it was

289
00:19:15.440 --> 00:19:19.440
like, yeah, that was an
interesting reaction that you had before. I

290
00:19:19.440 --> 00:19:22.039
haven't finished the question. Holy shit, So you're not allowed to do that?

291
00:19:22.119 --> 00:19:26.720
Huh No? And bearman, I'm
helicoptering too. IF's chili or somebody

292
00:19:26.880 --> 00:19:32.200
is on my grill, I'm I'm
there, dude, I'm there, I'm

293
00:19:32.359 --> 00:19:37.160
hovering, I'm hanging. I got
an extra tongue ready to go. I

294
00:19:37.359 --> 00:19:41.599
might be goosing them a little bit
from behind. I'm there. I'm present.

295
00:19:42.079 --> 00:19:48.200
If there's stuff on the grill,
I'm present. I'm not fucking swimming

296
00:19:48.240 --> 00:19:52.400
in the pool while the grill is
blowing up. Yeah, I mean the

297
00:19:52.440 --> 00:19:55.559
grill is right there. It wasn't
blowing up. Is it the reason?

298
00:19:55.880 --> 00:19:57.279
Is it a safety issue or is
it just Hey, I'm a dude,

299
00:19:57.440 --> 00:20:03.200
this is my fucking grill. Is
it that issue? So what it is?

300
00:20:03.680 --> 00:20:08.279
God rest his soul. Mitch the
engineer, he would come over and

301
00:20:08.359 --> 00:20:12.160
he was a really, really good
cook. So he brought over you know,

302
00:20:12.400 --> 00:20:18.240
bacon wrapped, you know, Armadillo
eggs they call him here in Texas.

303
00:20:18.319 --> 00:20:22.039
And I don't know what the fuck, but it's bacon on the outside

304
00:20:22.079 --> 00:20:26.240
and it's probably halapeinos and shit like
that on the inside. Well, bacon

305
00:20:26.640 --> 00:20:33.720
cannot be unattended on a grill.
No, and here's me try, Okay,

306
00:20:33.880 --> 00:20:37.359
Mitch is this guy he kind of
taught me how to smoke and do

307
00:20:37.440 --> 00:20:41.640
that. I know he knows his
stuff, so I kind of don't a

308
00:20:41.799 --> 00:20:48.240
helicopter on him. Dude, this
fucking black chary smoke is coming out of

309
00:20:48.240 --> 00:20:52.599
the grill. It colors the side
of my house. Okay, now I've

310
00:20:52.599 --> 00:20:59.279
got like the next day, I'm
scrubbing my house. Terrible, dude,

311
00:20:59.319 --> 00:21:03.559
I had smoked stains on my house. Bacon. Can't you do not leave

312
00:21:03.599 --> 00:21:07.559
somebody at your grill? Yeah,
I guess it's just weird. Just felt

313
00:21:07.599 --> 00:21:11.480
like it was like like I was
like, my buddy looked at me shocked,

314
00:21:11.480 --> 00:21:14.480
like I let another man touch my
grill. I'm like, well,

315
00:21:15.240 --> 00:21:18.079
that's weird. Yea, he should
have a little buddy drive my car.

316
00:21:18.240 --> 00:21:21.039
That's not a big deal. I
don't like it, but you know anyway,

317
00:21:21.599 --> 00:21:23.960
huh, Okay, let'son learn.
I learned something new every day on

318
00:21:23.960 --> 00:21:30.960
this podcast. See an all dumb
shit. Hey Purcella Presley as we're recording

319
00:21:32.000 --> 00:21:37.480
this on Wednesday, May twenty four, seventy eight years old. Um,

320
00:21:37.559 --> 00:21:44.839
she's been in the news a little
bit lately because her I guess that would

321
00:21:44.880 --> 00:21:52.880
be her. Her granddaughter is the
chick from Daisy Jones and Daisy Jones and

322
00:21:52.920 --> 00:21:56.599
the six Yeah. Yeah, that's
her. Okay, Riley Riley key keo.

323
00:21:57.039 --> 00:22:04.039
Okay. She's also Elvis had one
kid, and then that kid had

324
00:22:04.079 --> 00:22:08.200
two kids, one of them had
passed away. So Riley is the only

325
00:22:08.599 --> 00:22:15.839
grand kid of Elvis. So she's
kind of taken over the estate now because

326
00:22:15.839 --> 00:22:18.759
her mom passed away. Lisa Murray
Presley just passed away a little while ago,

327
00:22:19.359 --> 00:22:25.039
and apparently, and this kind of
sucks, so Riley Keo is now

328
00:22:25.119 --> 00:22:29.759
fighting her grandma and they're fighting over
money and estate things, and apparently they

329
00:22:29.759 --> 00:22:30.920
got it worked out. You know, I don't know how any of that

330
00:22:32.000 --> 00:22:34.000
works. I will say this,
and I'll stick up for Priscilla Presley because

331
00:22:34.400 --> 00:22:40.519
the things that I had read before
a long time ago that Elvis estate wasn't

332
00:22:40.599 --> 00:22:44.640
worth a whole lot when Elvis passed
away, and she kind of kept it

333
00:22:44.720 --> 00:22:48.680
humping along and she built it up
to, you know, a couple hundred

334
00:22:48.720 --> 00:22:52.720
million dollar empire with all the licensing
and everything. So I think even though

335
00:22:52.759 --> 00:22:57.960
they were only married a short period
of time, it still was Elvis's wife

336
00:22:59.039 --> 00:23:03.880
who produced Els his only kid.
And you know, I don't know what

337
00:23:03.920 --> 00:23:08.079
they're fighting about. We'll never know, but I just don't look as at

338
00:23:08.119 --> 00:23:11.680
her as like this money grubber.
I really do think that she was kind

339
00:23:11.720 --> 00:23:15.440
of in on this and in the
best interests of keeping things going for her

340
00:23:15.519 --> 00:23:21.000
daughter, knowing that she was going
to be the sole heir until she had

341
00:23:21.079 --> 00:23:26.160
kids, which were now we have
Riley Keo. Right. Is Priscilla Presley

342
00:23:26.839 --> 00:23:32.680
the most famous rock star wife of
all time? Man, that's a tough

343
00:23:32.759 --> 00:23:38.240
one. The most well known kind
of the first one. But but for

344
00:23:38.359 --> 00:23:41.519
being a rock star wife, I'm
gonna throw it. I'm gonna I'm gonna

345
00:23:41.519 --> 00:23:45.119
take somebody off the table. Okay, even though she wouldn't really be mentioned,

346
00:23:45.200 --> 00:23:52.880
but when Gwen Stefani was married to
Gavin Rossdale, Gwen Stefani is Gwen

347
00:23:52.960 --> 00:23:56.119
Stefani on her own. You know, she's famous on her own, So

348
00:23:56.160 --> 00:24:00.880
it's almost not fair, but I
guess everything's in play. Yeah, there

349
00:24:00.920 --> 00:24:03.279
were more equal I know, but
I'm gonna take that back off the table

350
00:24:03.319 --> 00:24:07.920
just because I want to see where
this goes. Who is the most famous

351
00:24:07.039 --> 00:24:12.400
rock star wife of all time?
You know, you got to look at

352
00:24:12.440 --> 00:24:18.440
Sharon Osbourne and Ozzy, Yes,
absolutely, and then you know, to

353
00:24:18.519 --> 00:24:22.799
a lesser level because it just didn't
last very long with Kurt and Courtney Cobain.

354
00:24:23.119 --> 00:24:26.720
You know, Courtney Love and Kurt
Cobain because they were huge. They

355
00:24:26.759 --> 00:24:30.519
were peak fire at that moment in
the discussion, absolutely in the discussion,

356
00:24:30.559 --> 00:24:33.480
and then you got and then you
got to put Pam Anderson in there.

357
00:24:34.000 --> 00:24:38.119
Well, she was with everybody,
so you know her and Tommy. Nothing

358
00:24:38.200 --> 00:24:42.000
ever came close to Pam and Tommy. I mean sure, if you,

359
00:24:42.240 --> 00:24:45.880
I would say, you would just
pile on extra points for throwing kid Rock

360
00:24:45.920 --> 00:24:51.240
in there. But I think you
got to have Pam Anderson in there as

361
00:24:51.279 --> 00:24:56.720
far as the most famous and again
famous on her own, but Pam and

362
00:24:56.799 --> 00:25:00.720
Tommy, come on, I mean
it, Pam and Tommy. You just

363
00:25:00.759 --> 00:25:04.319
say one with the other. They
haven't been married in twenty five years.

364
00:25:04.480 --> 00:25:08.200
Pam and Tommy still seems like something
that you say and you you pair them

365
00:25:08.200 --> 00:25:11.640
together. Well, the videotape certainly
helped that situation out a lot. You

366
00:25:11.640 --> 00:25:15.359
know, it was still a huge. But man, when that when that

367
00:25:15.440 --> 00:25:18.480
videotape came out, that thing,
I mean, that was it. They

368
00:25:18.480 --> 00:25:22.039
were white hot. You know you
could look at um. This is going

369
00:25:22.079 --> 00:25:26.680
back a little bit further. Billy
Joel and Christie Brinkley was pretty big for

370
00:25:26.799 --> 00:25:29.960
that time period in the eighties.
You know, he wrote Uptown Girl about

371
00:25:29.960 --> 00:25:33.000
her. She's in the video that
whole thing. She didn't glow up with

372
00:25:33.039 --> 00:25:37.359
Billy she was and I said,
and I did say glow up, So

373
00:25:37.559 --> 00:25:42.079
she was already she was already a
supermodel, so boom. They were already

374
00:25:42.160 --> 00:25:45.759
there, Like they were already two
huge people that came together kind of like

375
00:25:45.799 --> 00:25:51.319
Gwen Stefani and Gavin Rossdale. They
were both names, big names together.

376
00:25:51.720 --> 00:25:56.759
But you could look at Eddie van
Halen and Valerie Burton Elly two both huge

377
00:25:56.759 --> 00:26:00.319
stars at the time, you know, and they came together, so and

378
00:26:00.599 --> 00:26:03.200
it's pretty universally known. You know. My litmus test is, Okay,

379
00:26:03.240 --> 00:26:07.279
I'm going to run these names by
my mom, and my mom's gonna know

380
00:26:07.480 --> 00:26:10.680
everybody that we've talked about already,
Like she's gonna say, okay, like

381
00:26:10.720 --> 00:26:15.079
my mom, I think knows who
Courtney Love is, and she she definitely

382
00:26:15.079 --> 00:26:21.759
knows who Kurt Cobain and Courtney Love
is. Right. The only other one

383
00:26:21.880 --> 00:26:26.799
that I that I wrote down.
I mean there's tons of you know,

384
00:26:26.160 --> 00:26:30.680
famous wives or Sherry Moon Zombie,
Shannon Tweed. I even kind of thought

385
00:26:30.680 --> 00:26:34.880
about with Jean Simmen, but it's
just those are just famous people that are

386
00:26:34.880 --> 00:26:42.599
married. Did everybody know that David
Bowie was with Iman forever. I don't

387
00:26:42.720 --> 00:26:47.119
know if that was this universally known, but I mean I knew it.

388
00:26:47.160 --> 00:26:48.200
But that's the world we live in
too, you know. But they were

389
00:26:48.240 --> 00:26:52.480
together forever too, man. But
it's nowhere near Priscilla Presley. Oh God,

390
00:26:52.559 --> 00:26:56.319
no one's touching Priscilla Presley because she's
come of the first one. She

391
00:26:56.440 --> 00:26:59.960
was this little girl, a little
too little. But the times where they're

392
00:27:00.640 --> 00:27:03.640
and you know, and then they
were together and they were just everywhere.

393
00:27:03.640 --> 00:27:06.279
He was the biggest thing on earth
at the time, and she was hot

394
00:27:06.319 --> 00:27:10.839
and cool and badass and everything.
And then that's when the newspapers would take

395
00:27:10.880 --> 00:27:12.759
pictures of them. So that was
the early early days of all that shit.

396
00:27:14.000 --> 00:27:18.119
So you know, you think about
the oas the boomers that grew up

397
00:27:18.160 --> 00:27:19.880
with it. Neither one of us
are going to know our name, but

398
00:27:21.359 --> 00:27:26.000
you know, Jerry Lee Lewis's cousin, Jesus the seven Times Dude, but

399
00:27:26.200 --> 00:27:32.759
rock star wives he married his thirteen
year old second cousin. Yeah, pretty

400
00:27:32.799 --> 00:27:34.880
famous, but not on that level
because we don't know her name. I

401
00:27:34.920 --> 00:27:45.519
would say Priscilla Presley is one where
I I think it's between Sharon Pam and

402
00:27:45.599 --> 00:27:49.200
Courtney who's number two? If we
both agree, if we both agree that

403
00:27:49.200 --> 00:27:53.119
Priscilla Presley is the most famous rock
star wife of all time? Right,

404
00:27:53.440 --> 00:27:56.920
who's two, three and four?
Or am I missing somebody? I mean

405
00:27:57.000 --> 00:28:03.400
Heather Locklear, Heather Clear with Tommy
Lee and uh Richie Sambord. That's a

406
00:28:03.400 --> 00:28:06.440
big one, you know. But
that that was hot for a minute,

407
00:28:06.480 --> 00:28:08.880
and then you know, Tommy moved
on. You know, Pam eclips his

408
00:28:08.920 --> 00:28:12.839
head of Lochlyer by about nine hundred
miles. So she's in the discussion.

409
00:28:12.920 --> 00:28:17.440
But because of what Pam and Tommy
did, Heather Lockler kind of gets pushed

410
00:28:17.440 --> 00:28:18.880
to the side. You kind of
forget that they were even together. You

411
00:28:18.960 --> 00:28:23.240
know, Um, you gotta go. You know, Ozzy and Sharon,

412
00:28:25.880 --> 00:28:30.799
she's pretty famous show and everything.
Yeah, and they've been together forever and

413
00:28:30.839 --> 00:28:36.599
the whole Osbourne's TV show on MTV
years ago solidified that whole thing. So

414
00:28:36.640 --> 00:28:40.160
I think that's that's household name.
That's that's not just dumb, dopey rock

415
00:28:40.240 --> 00:28:44.119
fans like us. That's a lot
of people know who she is. Sharon's

416
00:28:44.160 --> 00:28:47.160
number two? Yeah? Who was
the other one? I forgot already?

417
00:28:47.440 --> 00:28:52.000
Pam. I thought it was Pam, Courtney and Sharon. It's far as

418
00:28:52.279 --> 00:28:56.640
famous. You gotta go Pam and
Tommy. I think second, I think

419
00:28:56.640 --> 00:29:00.160
you gotta go. Second, I
think it's I think is Priscilla, Elvis,

420
00:29:00.480 --> 00:29:04.759
Pam and Tommy, Ozzie, Sharon, Hurt and Courtney, and then

421
00:29:04.759 --> 00:29:08.200
again after that, then after that, I think it's Janie Lane and Miss

422
00:29:08.200 --> 00:29:11.519
Louisiana Teena, USA, nineteen eighty
seven, Bobby Brown. She was in

423
00:29:11.519 --> 00:29:15.240
the cherry Pie video. Oh yeah, cherry Pie for sure. Maybe that's

424
00:29:15.240 --> 00:29:18.319
a little further down the list.
You know, what is the famous one

425
00:29:18.359 --> 00:29:26.440
that is fucking wild but no one
really knows the name. But George Harrison

426
00:29:26.920 --> 00:29:33.000
of the Beatles was married to Patty
boyd Well. George's banging Rango's wife,

427
00:29:33.599 --> 00:29:38.559
and Patty starts banging other dudes,
so they split up. She started banging

428
00:29:38.559 --> 00:29:41.720
Clapton while Clapton kept chasing after,
and she said, no, I'm not

429
00:29:41.759 --> 00:29:45.200
interested in Clapton, I'm not interested
in you. So Clapton, being an

430
00:29:45.279 --> 00:29:48.720
artist, he's all bummed out.
He really wants to be with his Patti

431
00:29:48.759 --> 00:29:52.559
boychick, so he goes out and
he writes fucking Leila. That song is

432
00:29:52.599 --> 00:29:56.559
about his desire to be with her, and then later on he went to

433
00:29:56.559 --> 00:30:02.079
write the song Wonderful Tonight that is
also about Pattie Boyd. They got married.

434
00:30:02.240 --> 00:30:03.119
They were married for quite a few
years, and of course that did

435
00:30:03.119 --> 00:30:07.640
not work out forever. But I
wouldn't consider her a famous one. But

436
00:30:07.720 --> 00:30:11.240
she's famous because of the songs that
were written about her. She was quite

437
00:30:11.279 --> 00:30:15.359
the museum you could look at.
I don't know that. I didn't.

438
00:30:15.400 --> 00:30:18.799
I didn't know both of those songs
were written about her. Yeah, I

439
00:30:18.880 --> 00:30:21.759
knew Layla was about her, I
didn't know the other one. You look,

440
00:30:21.799 --> 00:30:23.519
Wonderful Tonight is about her. That's
about her the whole, and it's

441
00:30:23.559 --> 00:30:26.960
a fucking great song. Man,
if you if you got to check play

442
00:30:26.000 --> 00:30:30.799
that for her, she'll be like
whoa. And he's fucking friends with George.

443
00:30:30.319 --> 00:30:33.480
Yeah, they're great pals. But
that back then, dude, Patty

444
00:30:33.519 --> 00:30:36.799
boy was banging a lot of people. But then George was also banging a

445
00:30:36.839 --> 00:30:38.599
lot of people. It's a mess. I started diving on that rabbit hole.

446
00:30:38.599 --> 00:30:41.559
I'm like, I gotta get out
of this one. This one's freaking

447
00:30:41.559 --> 00:30:45.519
me out too much. But yeah, Layla was written, and he sent

448
00:30:45.640 --> 00:30:48.359
the song to Patty boyd, and
as soon as she heard it, she's

449
00:30:48.400 --> 00:30:52.440
like, holy shit, everyone's gonna
know this song is about me, and

450
00:30:52.519 --> 00:30:56.839
she still kept turning them down.
I thought you're gonna say she heard the

451
00:30:56.839 --> 00:30:59.160
song and jumped right on his rocket. No, it took a took.

452
00:30:59.279 --> 00:31:00.920
It took a little while, and
then she warmed up. She realized how

453
00:31:00.960 --> 00:31:03.960
great the song was. She's like, holy shit, he wrote this about

454
00:31:03.000 --> 00:31:06.039
me. And then they got together
and it all worked out. But yeah,

455
00:31:06.039 --> 00:31:07.680
then he later went and wrote Wonderful
tonight. If you haven't heard that

456
00:31:07.720 --> 00:31:12.319
song, that's a good one.
That's a really good song. Rosanna,

457
00:31:12.400 --> 00:31:18.559
our cat Toto, Rosanna. It's
true right? What's the top five on

458
00:31:18.640 --> 00:31:23.680
that? What's the other song that's
written about her? Should I know this?

459
00:31:23.720 --> 00:31:29.880
But I don't know it right now? Damn it? Ah, Pete

460
00:31:29.920 --> 00:31:34.079
Gabriel in your eye Oh yes,
well I always call it in your eye

461
00:31:34.079 --> 00:31:38.160
because I'm thinking a load. But
it's called in your eyes two eyes that

462
00:31:38.279 --> 00:31:41.400
you've got a decent batch. You
can probably hit them both. What I'd

463
00:31:41.400 --> 00:31:45.680
like to think that Peter Gabriel wrote
one right in her eye socket? Why

464
00:31:45.720 --> 00:31:52.119
do we how do we get Rick
o'kask Paulinava Cova Porta Cova, who is

465
00:31:52.160 --> 00:31:57.880
a great follow on Instagram. Really, um, she is thrown out there

466
00:31:59.640 --> 00:32:06.240
fifth six fifty seven and naked all
the time. She's got that whole look

467
00:32:06.240 --> 00:32:07.319
at me, look at me.
You know. She used to be a

468
00:32:07.680 --> 00:32:15.240
runaway model and nobody could understand why
she married Rick o'kasick because he was not

469
00:32:15.400 --> 00:32:17.680
a handsome man at all, and
she was like one of the hottest girls

470
00:32:17.680 --> 00:32:21.799
ever. But she was in that
Who's going to Drive You Home? She

471
00:32:21.880 --> 00:32:24.119
was in the drive video? Yeah
I think maybe I don't know if that's

472
00:32:24.119 --> 00:32:28.559
where they met or I don't know, but I know she's in that video

473
00:32:28.680 --> 00:32:35.640
and she was and is smoking out
there man, like she winds the date.

474
00:32:35.759 --> 00:32:38.799
She she's an interesting follow. Man, I'd let her use my grill.

475
00:32:39.440 --> 00:32:43.720
Oh yeah, she's allowed. She's
allowed. You can put your meat

476
00:32:43.799 --> 00:32:46.119
right on her grill. This is
funny, But no one's gonna know this

477
00:32:46.119 --> 00:32:50.720
one because it's a little bit older
than our generation. X Mick Jagger and

478
00:32:50.839 --> 00:32:53.039
Jerry Hall. Jerry Hall was a
famous model back in the eighties. They

479
00:32:53.039 --> 00:32:57.880
were together from like eighty five to
ninety seven. Yeah, you know,

480
00:32:57.920 --> 00:33:00.359
Axel Rose was who that Stephanie Seymour, our underwear model. Of course,

481
00:33:00.359 --> 00:33:04.759
then he beat the shit out of
her and stuff allegedly. Um, she

482
00:33:04.839 --> 00:33:07.720
was in the November Rain video.
They were for like a year and a

483
00:33:07.799 --> 00:33:12.160
half. Dave Dave, Dave Navarro, Carmen Electro. They were married for

484
00:33:12.200 --> 00:33:15.240
a couple of years, but they
weren't super famous. They had an MTV

485
00:33:15.359 --> 00:33:19.920
show Till Death Do Us Part.
Yeah, it wasn't bad and she's still

486
00:33:20.000 --> 00:33:22.359
hot. What have we learned about
this exercise? Learn to play a damn

487
00:33:22.400 --> 00:33:25.799
instrument? Or saying because ugly dudes
get models when you're a rock start,

488
00:33:25.839 --> 00:33:30.960
did you notice how bad Mick Jagger
looks, how weird Billy Joel looks,

489
00:33:30.039 --> 00:33:37.279
Rick Okasik, Axel rose Azzi.
Yeah, everybody is way everybody's like,

490
00:33:37.319 --> 00:33:39.240
way out of the dudes. The
chicks are way out of their league,

491
00:33:39.559 --> 00:33:44.359
way way out of their league,
way out of there. Except for I

492
00:33:44.359 --> 00:33:47.759
would I think Devin Rossdale is hotter
than Gwen Stefani. I want to be.

493
00:33:47.960 --> 00:33:52.920
I want to go on record as
saying that he is absolutely stunning to

494
00:33:52.960 --> 00:33:57.319
look at that Tati's dreamy. He
is hotter than Gwen Stefani I by a

495
00:33:57.400 --> 00:34:00.480
mile. When Stefani never really did
anything for me. I don't know what

496
00:34:00.480 --> 00:34:05.359
I mean, not that she's it's
not that. I just when people would

497
00:34:05.440 --> 00:34:09.039
lose their mind over her, even
back in the No Doubt days, I

498
00:34:09.079 --> 00:34:14.320
just never saw it. I never
saw it with her. Nice I interviewed

499
00:34:14.320 --> 00:34:16.480
her a hundred years ago, long
before she was famous. But I just

500
00:34:16.599 --> 00:34:21.159
never saw the beauty. And I
mean, she's, man, she's beautiful.

501
00:34:21.519 --> 00:34:24.880
Okay, record is saying that,
but uh, Gavin's more beautiful than

502
00:34:25.000 --> 00:34:28.599
Yeah. Yeah, I had to
flip a coin on that one, because

503
00:34:28.639 --> 00:34:30.599
he is. He's unbelievable man.
And you know what's really cool about their

504
00:34:30.599 --> 00:34:34.599
stories. They were on tour back
in like ninety five or whatever it was,

505
00:34:35.119 --> 00:34:37.480
and they were all over the place
where they played in New Orleans.

506
00:34:37.840 --> 00:34:40.599
No Doubt was opening up for Bush
and he had been trying to get her

507
00:34:40.599 --> 00:34:44.360
to go out to go out.
You know where. That dude got her

508
00:34:44.400 --> 00:34:47.559
to go Molly's right off of Bourbon
Street, and they had some pints down

509
00:34:47.599 --> 00:34:51.000
there and they hung out all night, going around the French Quarter. And

510
00:34:51.039 --> 00:34:54.599
that's when they started dating. Here
in Molly's pub, Yeah, the one

511
00:34:54.599 --> 00:34:59.280
that's off of Bourbon. I forget
the side Street. But it's yeah,

512
00:34:59.360 --> 00:35:01.159
yeah, like time maybe or something. Yeah, the little gumpy one,

513
00:35:01.239 --> 00:35:04.039
you know, not the one where
you get the Irish coffe. He's done

514
00:35:04.039 --> 00:35:07.679
a decatur there's a different one.
Yeah, okay, yeah, that's where

515
00:35:07.719 --> 00:35:09.239
they were hanging out and stuff chilling. I'm like, oh, it's all

516
00:35:09.280 --> 00:35:12.760
started here in New Orleans. But
yeah, now, Gavin Rostell, he

517
00:35:12.760 --> 00:35:16.800
wins the handsome or the better looker
um in that in that deal. Yeah.

518
00:35:16.800 --> 00:35:21.119
Outside of that, I couldn't think
of anybody else. Oh oh wait

519
00:35:21.119 --> 00:35:30.280
a minute, recently consciously uncoupled.
Yeah, Gwyneth Paul Oh, I have

520
00:35:30.360 --> 00:35:35.119
that. Chris Martin and Gwyneth Paltrick. She's annoying. Yeah, she's just

521
00:35:35.199 --> 00:35:37.400
fucking awful. She's not hot,
nothing. He does nothing for me.

522
00:35:38.760 --> 00:35:43.559
Yeah, I might. I might
do Chris Martin over her in a minute.

523
00:35:43.639 --> 00:35:46.000
Yeah, he's at least cool.
I really really enjoyed my conversation with

524
00:35:46.079 --> 00:35:50.960
him last year, So yeah,
I might. I might have Chris Martin

525
00:35:51.079 --> 00:35:53.360
over Gwyneth. Yeah, like a
wet paper towel. She does nothing for

526
00:35:53.400 --> 00:35:58.199
me. Coming up, we're gonna
talk Lenny Kravitz. He's having a birthday

527
00:35:58.199 --> 00:36:00.679
on Friday. We said he's a
vampire. It's gonna be fifty nine.

528
00:36:00.760 --> 00:36:06.679
He was a resident of the French
Quarter for a number of years. Yeah,

529
00:36:06.760 --> 00:36:09.599
just down the street from where I've
got a place. Lenny Kravitz top

530
00:36:09.639 --> 00:36:16.559
five before we break, was this
easy? It was. I haven't done

531
00:36:16.559 --> 00:36:20.320
a deep dive on Lenny Kravitz deep
cuts in a long time, So I

532
00:36:20.599 --> 00:36:22.719
know I'm gonna miss some ship and
you're gonna have one on there. I

533
00:36:22.039 --> 00:36:24.519
like, damn it. Yeah no, I love Lenny Kravitz. Man.

534
00:36:24.519 --> 00:36:28.920
He's always been one of those guys. It's just always there. It's always

535
00:36:28.920 --> 00:36:30.639
solid as old shit. I love
his old shit. I couldn't tell you

536
00:36:30.719 --> 00:36:34.440
any of his more recent stuff,
but yeah, we wasn't too bad.

537
00:36:34.639 --> 00:36:37.199
Wasn't too bad at all. Yeah
I was. I was there out of

538
00:36:37.239 --> 00:36:43.039
the gate with his career and going
to see him live right when he was

539
00:36:43.119 --> 00:36:47.519
brand new. I've seen him multiple
times. Um, traveled to go see

540
00:36:47.599 --> 00:36:52.880
him, and yeah, uh so
great. I can't wait talk a little

541
00:36:52.920 --> 00:36:58.039
Lenny Kravitz. Um, why don't
we take a break and we'll come back

542
00:36:58.400 --> 00:37:01.079
and we'll do our Lenny Kravitz top
fives. Wow, I can take I

543
00:37:01.079 --> 00:37:04.639
can actually take a break here.
I don't remember the last time I was

544
00:37:04.679 --> 00:37:07.440
able to take a break during this
podcast. Well, that's because the Rod

545
00:37:07.519 --> 00:37:10.639
Ryan Show cars has been busy in
the store stores up, it's online.

546
00:37:10.800 --> 00:37:15.840
All new summer merch is avalable.
Man, I've seen some of these T

547
00:37:15.960 --> 00:37:19.559
shirts. They looking good. The
couses are badass, stickers, all kinds

548
00:37:19.559 --> 00:37:22.679
of cool stuff. Now what Rod's
trying to do here, and he's done

549
00:37:22.679 --> 00:37:27.760
it many times in the past.
He's raising money to purchase backpacks for Eric

550
00:37:27.800 --> 00:37:30.800
Houston kids who obviously are in need
of them. And he's working again with

551
00:37:30.840 --> 00:37:36.559
the Houston's Children's charity, trying to
outdo last year. Let me just put

552
00:37:36.599 --> 00:37:42.519
this number in perspective. Okay,
last year pulled in one hundred and one

553
00:37:42.519 --> 00:37:46.360
thousand dollars. That's not one hundred
and one dollars, that's one hundred and

554
00:37:46.360 --> 00:37:52.480
one thousand dollars, and they passed
out over thirty five hundred filled backpacks.

555
00:37:52.480 --> 00:37:54.960
They can also supply as the kids
are gonna need in. They're safe,

559
00:38:08.400 --> 00:38:15.559
shopping uh this weekend on the rod
Ryan Show Care's page at the buzz dot

560
00:38:15.719 --> 00:38:17.119
com. When you look at a
number like one hundred one thousand, you

561
00:38:17.159 --> 00:38:22.960
just go, the fuck are we
gonna beat that? Yes, a lot

562
00:38:22.960 --> 00:38:27.239
of money, dude. And I
do that to myself, and it's it's

563
00:38:27.320 --> 00:38:31.079
it's a terrible thing to want to
outdo yourself every year. It's awful,

564
00:38:31.559 --> 00:38:35.800
but it's awful. I mean,
it's a great thing. I love having

565
00:38:35.880 --> 00:38:38.639
goals and I love setting the bar
and I never want to go backwards and

566
00:38:39.239 --> 00:38:44.480
all of that. And it's like, Okay, we're gonna have to top

567
00:38:44.519 --> 00:38:49.599
out somewhere. Listen, if we
come close to one hundred grand again,

568
00:38:49.639 --> 00:38:54.119
I'll be happy. The backpacks with
everything, dude, what's not more expensive?

569
00:38:54.800 --> 00:39:00.039
Everything is more expensive. Not only
are the backpacks more expensive, but

570
00:39:00.280 --> 00:39:06.599
everything that goes in those backpacks.
The scissors are more, the crayons are

571
00:39:06.639 --> 00:39:12.440
more, the spiral notebooks, the
protractors, the rulers. It's insane,

572
00:39:12.519 --> 00:39:17.280
dude, how much more everything is. So I used to be able to

573
00:39:17.320 --> 00:39:22.599
get about, you know, twenty
bucks for a backpack. I got to

574
00:39:22.679 --> 00:39:24.280
raise the price of the T shirts
and I don't want to do that either.

575
00:39:24.639 --> 00:39:29.840
But the actual T shirts are costing
me more, right, And there's

576
00:39:29.840 --> 00:39:32.400
just nothing that's not kind of gone
through the roof over the last five years

577
00:39:34.400 --> 00:39:38.280
in the fleet five years has been
ridiculous. I could fix the one of

578
00:39:38.320 --> 00:39:40.679
the things. I could probably get
the price lower, because what you do

579
00:39:40.760 --> 00:39:45.599
is printing costs money. Right,
and when you have to buy crayons,

580
00:39:45.960 --> 00:39:50.360
Okay, if you take out the
why and just Crans, I know you

581
00:39:50.480 --> 00:39:55.440
tried, still Sun, you could
do it. Krans cr a n s

582
00:39:55.559 --> 00:40:00.960
Krans. You're saving ink, dude. We can lower the cost of Crans

583
00:40:01.320 --> 00:40:07.840
cr a n s kryons. Kids, you're getting Crans this year, right.

584
00:40:07.960 --> 00:40:09.599
It's just still sounds weird to me
after all these years as well.

585
00:40:09.679 --> 00:40:16.320
Okay, but so all these years
removed from Western New York, Krans still

586
00:40:16.360 --> 00:40:20.400
sounds good to you. I don't
know anymore, man, I don't hear

587
00:40:20.440 --> 00:40:22.199
it very often. I don't exactly
talk Krans in my house anymore. You

588
00:40:22.239 --> 00:40:23.760
know, it's not something we do. I'm gonna, you know, I'm

589
00:40:23.760 --> 00:40:28.679
gonna start. I'm gonna try to
get people to use that word in a

590
00:40:28.719 --> 00:40:30.599
sentence. I can hear all they
say it now. It's like the word

591
00:40:30.639 --> 00:40:37.239
iron. So I got people say
I say iron wrong, iron, You

592
00:40:37.239 --> 00:40:49.599
can iron your clothes iron if it's
a little rushed iron. Hey, well

593
00:40:49.719 --> 00:40:52.199
you okay, wait up here.
I got called out on the air on

594
00:40:52.239 --> 00:40:59.880
this. Okay. I didn't know
I was saying anything wrong. I would

595
00:41:00.119 --> 00:41:07.079
p at the urnal, I would
pee, I would stand up and pe

596
00:41:07.320 --> 00:41:12.679
at the yurnal urnal. Urinal.
It's a urinal. It's like, what's

597
00:41:12.719 --> 00:41:15.800
the rush, dude? Why are
you missing something there? It's a urineal?

598
00:41:16.199 --> 00:41:21.760
And I didn't saying that right,
There's no way we we grew up

599
00:41:21.760 --> 00:41:24.840
saying urinal. No, we're a
little quick up there in the northeast,

600
00:41:24.880 --> 00:41:28.519

I would say, yeah, yeah,

601
00:41:28.519 --> 00:41:31.920

Hey is it? Is it shit?

602
00:41:32.039 --> 00:41:37.199
Or is there a urnal in there
too? Is there a urinal in there?

603
00:41:37.679 --> 00:41:39.519
And who the fuck took the cryans
and rode all over the walls above

604
00:41:39.559 --> 00:41:46.440
the urnal? Shit? What?
Oh? You know what? And you

605
00:41:46.480 --> 00:41:50.800
know I'll tell you what it was. It was a growing moment. It

606
00:41:50.920 --> 00:41:52.840
was like the day that Alex went
from a boy to a man. He

607
00:41:52.920 --> 00:41:55.840
just looked at me on the air
and he said, I got a question

608
00:41:55.880 --> 00:42:01.199
for you, what's a urnal?
I went, what, I go what

609
00:42:01.360 --> 00:42:06.199
little man what he goes? Yeah, what are you saying? What's a

610
00:42:06.320 --> 00:42:09.320
yurnal? And I said, Wow, I had no idea. I was

611
00:42:09.360 --> 00:42:15.519
saying it wrong. For fifty years. It's where it's where I write down

612
00:42:15.519 --> 00:42:19.480
all my deepest thoughts. I hope
nobody ever reads it. Yeah, the

613
00:42:19.559 --> 00:42:24.360
yurnal, it's a urinal. Yeah, it's pretty bad when your job is

614
00:42:24.400 --> 00:42:28.679
to speak on a radio or in
a public forum and you're saying, you're

615
00:42:28.679 --> 00:42:30.880
fuck up some words. You can't
talk. I mean, I don't know

616
00:42:30.920 --> 00:42:34.880
how I've gotten to this point in
my in my career. I don't know

617
00:42:34.960 --> 00:42:40.960
many province is turning what fifty eighty
nine, fifty nine? I looked like

618
00:42:42.800 --> 00:42:45.760
nine. I've had a couple of
opportunities to meet him. I've been up

619
00:42:45.800 --> 00:42:52.519
close with him. He looks fabulous
up close. It's not one of those

620
00:42:52.519 --> 00:42:55.800
guys that there's no trickery, there's
no makeup, no nothing. God damn,

621
00:42:55.840 --> 00:43:00.239
he's a handsome man. Um and
in when I the last time,

622
00:43:00.280 --> 00:43:05.239
it was a long time ago when
I when I interviewed him. I've interviewed

623
00:43:05.280 --> 00:43:07.079
him on the phone before. But
I'm talking like face to face, and

624
00:43:07.159 --> 00:43:12.320
he's sitting there in like some red
silky robe and it's like open here.

625
00:43:12.320 --> 00:43:15.519
Of course it's in a fucking robe, you know, barefoot, sitting on

626
00:43:15.559 --> 00:43:21.199
a couch. And I go back
there and he's just he's waiting to Like

627
00:43:21.239 --> 00:43:23.559
I really felt like I was being
received, you know. It wasn't like

628
00:43:23.599 --> 00:43:29.440
I walked in and met him.
He was ready to receive me. And

629
00:43:29.480 --> 00:43:32.880
he was just sitting on the couch, just like you would think a sultan

630
00:43:34.000 --> 00:43:39.119
would then. And I didn't really
I didn't feel comfortable sitting on the couch

631
00:43:39.239 --> 00:43:43.320
next to him, and I didn't
want to kneel on the floor in front

632
00:43:43.360 --> 00:43:47.639
of him. That seemed a little
weird. I remember pulling a chair over

633
00:43:47.719 --> 00:43:52.360
because he was he looked so comfortable, and I felt weird sitting next to

634
00:43:52.480 --> 00:43:55.559
him on the couch because I knew
I had to do some of this with

635
00:43:55.639 --> 00:44:00.480
the microphone right back and forth and
he so, you know, he's ready

636
00:44:00.480 --> 00:44:04.360
to receive me, but he's clearly
not setting up for me, nor is

637
00:44:04.400 --> 00:44:08.480
anybody. And I grabbed a chair
and I dragged it over in front of

638
00:44:08.559 --> 00:44:10.920
him. I go, is this
okay? He's like, go ahead,

639
00:44:12.719 --> 00:44:16.599
So that's kind of that's kind of
what I remember about that. And then

640
00:44:16.639 --> 00:44:20.639
I tried to get out of him
where he lived at that time. I

641
00:44:20.639 --> 00:44:22.960
didn't know where he lived in the
French Quarter. I knew it was,

642
00:44:22.039 --> 00:44:27.559
and he kind of shut me down
on that. Yeah, but so he

643
00:44:28.199 --> 00:44:32.079
lived. He lived past Tense on
the six hundred block of Dauphine Street.

644
00:44:32.840 --> 00:44:36.920
And it's a cool little place.
Man. I think it would be an

645
00:44:36.920 --> 00:44:43.039
easy Google search for you if anybody
was that interested to put Lenny Kravitz French

646
00:44:43.159 --> 00:44:47.800
Quarter cottage. And I bet you
you know some kind of old um real

647
00:44:47.880 --> 00:44:54.880
ittour, another one real ittour,
Nope, another one of those real ittour

648
00:44:55.119 --> 00:44:59.440
websites, and uh, and I
bet you there's old pictures up. It's

649
00:44:59.440 --> 00:45:01.320
pretty cool. He he had the
place redone. It's awesome. Inside.

650
00:45:01.800 --> 00:45:07.280
I knew a guy who was fixing
my cable and somehow we were talking about

651
00:45:07.519 --> 00:45:09.639
Lenny Kravitz came up. He's like, yeah, he goes, I just

652
00:45:09.679 --> 00:45:13.039
got done. This was years ago, obviously, when he was still down

653
00:45:13.039 --> 00:45:15.519
here. He's like, yeah,
I just got done. Rewired and Lenny

654
00:45:15.559 --> 00:45:19.800
Kravitz's place. I went, you
did, what badass? He goes,

655
00:45:19.880 --> 00:45:23.719
Yeah, he goes, he goes
that place is wild. Apparently there's like

656
00:45:23.760 --> 00:45:29.280
a loft where it's just the bed. The upstairs they like redid the whole

657
00:45:29.280 --> 00:45:31.039
inside of this French quarter. From
the street, it looks like nothing.

658
00:45:31.280 --> 00:45:37.440
It looks like nothing, but inside
it's like he's got just a huge loft

659
00:45:37.480 --> 00:45:40.360
where it's just his bed and all
his weird shit piano in there and all

660
00:45:40.360 --> 00:45:43.559
this stuff. I'm like, no, I don't imagine. It's still got

661
00:45:43.559 --> 00:45:46.480
the same crazy white shag carpet and
all that cool shit that was in there.

662
00:45:46.519 --> 00:45:50.360
But the pictures are out there is
it's a rock star place for shi

663
00:45:51.039 --> 00:45:55.679
fucking cool drapes and stuff. And
I want to say, in urnal he

664
00:45:55.760 --> 00:46:00.960
might have a Jurnal in there.
I want to say. When I did

665
00:46:01.000 --> 00:46:06.599
see it for sale, I don't
know. It was like, I really

666
00:46:06.800 --> 00:46:09.000
have this number in my head.
One point two million dollars. That's about

667
00:46:09.079 --> 00:46:12.760
right for that's that's the property in
the quarter. Um, yeah it would

668
00:46:12.800 --> 00:46:15.559
be it would be more now,
but this was years ago. I don't

669
00:46:15.599 --> 00:46:16.760
I have no idea who lives there. I know exactly where it is.

670
00:46:16.800 --> 00:46:21.320
It still looks cool on the outside
too, But I remember I remember the

671
00:46:21.400 --> 00:46:23.000
number one point two million and you're
like, well, what size is that

672
00:46:23.119 --> 00:46:29.960
rod? I bet you it is
twelve hundred square feet. It's not huge

673
00:46:30.000 --> 00:46:32.800
as a cottage. It's small.
Yeah, it is very small. But

674
00:46:32.920 --> 00:46:36.880
in the French Quarter, your property
value is huge. And it's like,

675
00:46:37.199 --> 00:46:39.159
if you're gonna buy a place,
you're looking at five hundred to five hundred

676
00:46:39.159 --> 00:46:43.920
and fifty dollars per square foot in
the French Quarter. So you start doing

677
00:46:43.960 --> 00:46:47.000
I hear you humming, Harold.
Yeah, that's that's some big, big,

678
00:46:47.039 --> 00:46:51.159
big Well. He's he's written some
pretty freaking cool songs. He's got

679
00:46:51.159 --> 00:46:53.159
the cash lane around. I'm sure, yeah, I've written no songs,

680
00:46:53.360 --> 00:46:57.440
and I don't know what I'm doing
down there. Right, all right,

681
00:46:57.519 --> 00:47:01.519
let's go, bro, all right, Top five Lenny Kravitz Songs. Here

682
00:47:01.519 --> 00:47:05.840
we go. I'm gonna go first, okay, because I know you're gonna

683
00:47:05.840 --> 00:47:07.559
bust out some fucking song. It's
like a deeper cut. I'm gonna be

684
00:47:07.599 --> 00:47:13.760
like, damn it, I miss
um uh deep cut? Maybe one okay,

685
00:47:14.199 --> 00:47:17.760
maybe one? Maybe just one deep
cut and go ahead. I'm just

686
00:47:17.760 --> 00:47:21.320
gonna tell you, if you have
that fucking cover song in your top five,

687
00:47:21.360 --> 00:47:25.360
I'm gonna punch you right through this
Zoom meeting American Woman and it number

688
00:47:25.400 --> 00:47:30.519
no. Actually, you know what
I left it off? I hate it.

689
00:47:30.800 --> 00:47:34.280
I hate it. I don't don't. I don't like the original one.

690
00:47:34.480 --> 00:47:38.360
It's it's talking bad about American women. It's from a Canadian band saying

691
00:47:38.400 --> 00:47:42.679
American woman, I don't want you, I don't need you. It's it's

692
00:47:42.719 --> 00:47:45.639
a terrible song. I don't like
what it's about. I don't like the

693
00:47:45.679 --> 00:47:50.239
actual song, and I don't like
the fucking cover. So I'm so happy

694
00:47:50.280 --> 00:47:52.159
you don't have that in your top
five. No, I do not number

695
00:47:52.159 --> 00:47:57.079
five. Are you gonna go my
way? Number five? Now? The

696
00:47:57.079 --> 00:48:00.199
reason is number five is I've been
playing it on the radio since nine ten

697
00:48:00.360 --> 00:48:04.079
ninety five, so little burnt,
But I still love that damn song.

698
00:48:04.119 --> 00:48:07.599
It's still rips. He wrote that
in like five minutes. He literally went

699
00:48:07.800 --> 00:48:10.440
bang knocked it out. It was
like at the end of the album cycle

700
00:48:10.440 --> 00:48:13.519
that he was writing and all that
shit, and he just went in there

701
00:48:13.519 --> 00:48:15.239
and I wounded that thing out,
and I'm like, are you fucking kidding

702
00:48:15.280 --> 00:48:21.360
me? And most famous song.
I think it's pretty common in a lot

703
00:48:21.400 --> 00:48:23.719
of his songs, but that one
specifically, that's Lenny Kravitz playing the drums

704
00:48:23.719 --> 00:48:27.599
in the studio on that right.
Yeah, great song. I mean,

705
00:48:27.679 --> 00:48:32.400
how you beat that song? Number
four? Can't get you off my mind?

706
00:48:34.039 --> 00:48:37.280
I don't remember what. I don't
know we wrote that one about,

707
00:48:37.039 --> 00:48:42.440
but just a great, great freaking
song. Lenny's got some some very cool

708
00:48:42.519 --> 00:48:45.199
music you want to put out in
the evening. Got a lady friend over,

709
00:48:45.199 --> 00:48:46.360
you know what I'm saying. Lenny's
got that kind of vibe and a

710
00:48:46.360 --> 00:48:52.079
lot of his songs because he's so
fucking cool that if he comes into that

711
00:48:52.159 --> 00:48:55.239
falsetto, that kind of that BG
thing like, he can do it,

712
00:48:55.519 --> 00:49:00.159
yep, and he'll sing a song. He'll start out in that falsetto on

713
00:49:00.239 --> 00:49:02.960
You're like, he's not gonna stay
the whole Holy fuck, He's gonna sing

714
00:49:02.960 --> 00:49:07.159
the whole song like that. He's
cool it up. He can do it.

715
00:49:07.440 --> 00:49:09.280
People cannot do that. That's a
lot. That's a lot in your

716
00:49:09.360 --> 00:49:15.039
voice. That was number four.
Another great almost an anthem in a way,

717
00:49:15.760 --> 00:49:20.320
let love rule. How do you
beat that? You know that's that's

718
00:49:20.320 --> 00:49:23.760
a great, great freaking song.
Well, apparently two songs beat it because

719
00:49:23.760 --> 00:49:28.199
that's your number three. Yeah,
I have six, but I will skip

720
00:49:28.199 --> 00:49:35.599
the one um number number two,
Always on the Run a song written with

721
00:49:35.719 --> 00:49:39.920
Slash. And what's interesting about that
is Slash was over on tour with Guns

722
00:49:40.000 --> 00:49:45.440
n' Roses in Europe and he flew
took the concord over to New York because

723
00:49:45.599 --> 00:49:47.719
Lenny Kravitz is in New York and
they knew they wanted to write a song

724
00:49:47.800 --> 00:49:51.960
together, so they just fixed it. This timing was just the only way

725
00:49:52.000 --> 00:49:54.719
they could pull it off. And
Slash tells Lenny Kravitz, have a gallon

726
00:49:54.760 --> 00:49:58.599
of vodka and a ship ton of
ice, and I'll be there in a

727
00:49:58.639 --> 00:50:02.159
little while, and he flies in. I would assume drank the vodka.

728
00:50:02.400 --> 00:50:07.920
And they wrote Always on the Run. How freaking badasses that And then then

729
00:50:07.960 --> 00:50:13.000
Slash took off and went out into
La like that was on. That was

730
00:50:13.039 --> 00:50:15.960
on my mother's day list because the
whole chorus, so the whole verses,

731
00:50:16.079 --> 00:50:20.679
my mama said, right right,
And it's all about lessons that he learned

732
00:50:20.719 --> 00:50:24.280
from his mom, who was famously
Roxy Roker, who was the neighbors of

733
00:50:24.320 --> 00:50:30.639
the Jeffersons, the Jefferson's that interracial
marriage and number one my favorite Lenny Kravitz

734
00:50:30.679 --> 00:50:36.800
song, at least for today,
believe. It's a slow song, but

735
00:50:36.960 --> 00:50:38.920
when you get that, that song
just builds. And when he starts ripping

736
00:50:38.920 --> 00:50:44.039
into that guitar solo and it just
builds and builds and builds. Man,

737
00:50:44.079 --> 00:50:46.719
it is epic. That guitar solo
is so fucking cool that you could play

738
00:50:46.719 --> 00:50:51.440
everything. It's so great. So
that was my number one believe. Definitely,

739
00:50:51.639 --> 00:50:53.400
definitely, Man, you put on
some Lenny. You got yourself a

740
00:50:53.440 --> 00:50:58.800
lady friend coming over. Go with
Lenny Kravitz. I had, I had

741
00:50:58.880 --> 00:51:02.400
believe and can get you off from
my mind as my sixes. God,

742
00:51:02.440 --> 00:51:07.519
those are good songs, man,
those are great fucking songs. Yeah,

743
00:51:07.519 --> 00:51:12.679
oh mine are it kind of slow? Well in at number five, dude,

744
00:51:13.239 --> 00:51:15.880
that's late eighties. Man, let
love rule. The first time I

745
00:51:15.920 --> 00:51:21.679
ever heard Lenny Kravitz. I always
have this. I always feel like when

746
00:51:21.679 --> 00:51:24.960
we do these top vibes. If
it's the song that introduced me to you

747
00:51:25.039 --> 00:51:29.840
as an artist, and I like
you as an artist, I I gotta

748
00:51:29.880 --> 00:51:31.880
go back to the root, the
roots that got me into you in the

749
00:51:31.920 --> 00:51:37.559
first place. So that first album
he looked different, he sounded different.

750
00:51:38.000 --> 00:51:42.320
It wasn't long that we found out
that his mom was a famous you know,

751
00:51:42.480 --> 00:51:45.519
actress, and then it kind of
made sense. Okay, but then

752
00:51:45.559 --> 00:51:50.400
you kind of thought, Okay,
nepotism. Let's see what this guy does.

753
00:51:50.719 --> 00:51:53.320
Okay, he's gonna get the one
album and that's it. He's gonna

754
00:51:53.360 --> 00:51:57.599
be a one and done deal.
He's got this whole hippie thing going on,

755
00:51:57.760 --> 00:52:01.599
this great vibe. Let Love rule
eighty nine, dude eighty nine.

756
00:52:02.199 --> 00:52:07.199
That's incredible. I forget that he
was actually earlier. You don't think of

757
00:52:07.280 --> 00:52:08.639
Lenny Kravitz is being out in the
late eighties like that. You know,

758
00:52:08.679 --> 00:52:13.760
you think, yes, early nineties. Let Love roll in at number five,

759
00:52:14.119 --> 00:52:16.079
in at number four. This is
my kind of deeper cut from the

760
00:52:16.119 --> 00:52:22.800
Mamaset album. Slash apparently didn't get
too drunk, but because he played on

761
00:52:22.880 --> 00:52:30.480
Fields of Joy and that's another one
that's just a builder, and then boom,

762
00:52:30.599 --> 00:52:34.360
Slash hits. Those kids went to
high school together, so he had

763
00:52:34.400 --> 00:52:40.480
known Slash for a long time.
And I know Lenny Kravitz, I don't

764
00:52:40.480 --> 00:52:45.760
know exactly his story because he's a
New York kid, but if he went

765
00:52:45.840 --> 00:52:50.760
to high school with Slash, that
means he had to go to LA and

766
00:52:50.800 --> 00:52:53.480
spent so he must have split with
the parents. He must have split his

767
00:52:53.599 --> 00:52:58.800
early early years in New York and
then went to LA for high school.

768
00:52:59.239 --> 00:53:02.320
So that's where he hooks up with
Slash God. It's amazing that those guys

769
00:53:02.360 --> 00:53:07.400
didn't get like a full on band
together. Can you imagine? Feez?

770
00:53:07.079 --> 00:53:13.519
So Fields of Joy from the Mama
Said album, I've always loved that song.

771
00:53:13.599 --> 00:53:15.880
That's my number four, innit number
three, always on the run,

772
00:53:16.000 --> 00:53:22.519
So I got slashed back to back
on that number two. Are you Gonna

773
00:53:22.519 --> 00:53:28.039
Go My Way? Are you Gonna
Go My Way? The video is like

774
00:53:28.079 --> 00:53:31.920
the thunder dome looking thing, and
if you remember the very beginning, I

775
00:53:32.039 --> 00:53:37.519
just that drums, no, no, no, just they're just that chick's

776
00:53:37.559 --> 00:53:44.400
beaten on the snare drum. And
if you remember Lenny standing there, I

777
00:53:44.519 --> 00:53:47.079
remember the video. There was this
it looked like a crown of thorns,

778
00:53:47.079 --> 00:53:52.119
but it was a crown of lights
that was coming down on his head.

779
00:53:51.880 --> 00:53:55.559
And the imagery for that he must
have. I mean, I don't know

780
00:53:55.599 --> 00:53:59.679
where it was filmed. I'm sure
all of this is on the Internet,

781
00:54:00.400 --> 00:54:04.559
but it was in some kind of
a silo and there were people and it

782
00:54:04.639 --> 00:54:07.599
was very apocalyptic and they were all
around him on different levels. It was

783
00:54:07.800 --> 00:54:12.880
such a fucking cool video. It's
such a rocking song. Are You Gonna

784
00:54:12.880 --> 00:54:15.119
Go My Way? In at number
two and number one? And I have

785
00:54:15.280 --> 00:54:20.840
personal reasons for this, But Lenny
Kravitz put out an album, Circus,

786
00:54:20.960 --> 00:54:23.440
and nobody was touching him. Lenny
Kravitz was no longer on the radio.

787
00:54:23.519 --> 00:54:29.719
There was nothing going on with him, and Circus was I think his fourth

788
00:54:29.800 --> 00:54:35.960
album. He comes out with the
album called Number five and the song Flyaway

789
00:54:36.079 --> 00:54:39.880
is on there and I heard it. The record company's working me. I'm

790
00:54:39.920 --> 00:54:45.480
a music director at the time,
and I get this thing on the radio

791
00:54:45.639 --> 00:54:47.719
because I think it's gonna be a
fucking slam dunk. I think it's gonna

792
00:54:47.760 --> 00:54:53.320
be a hit. Lenny Kravitz calls
me and thanks me for getting the song

793
00:54:53.440 --> 00:54:59.840
on the radio, and then when
the song does become a smash, se

794
00:55:00.079 --> 00:55:05.719
ends me a gold record. Lenny
puts a note in there thank you.

795
00:55:06.360 --> 00:55:12.760
So we you know, New Orleans
is not the biggest radio market, nor

796
00:55:12.840 --> 00:55:17.320
is it the biggest city. But
that was the spark I was in on

797
00:55:17.360 --> 00:55:21.239
a couple of those. That was
one of them that I was definitely in

798
00:55:21.280 --> 00:55:24.440
on the ground floor, and the
record company remembered it. Lenny remembered it.

799
00:55:24.519 --> 00:55:30.719
Yet, Lenny, how it worked
is the record guy called me and

800
00:55:30.800 --> 00:55:34.880
said, hey, dude, Lenny
wants to talk to you, and then

801
00:55:35.480 --> 00:55:37.920
transferred me over. And then I'm
sitting at my desk talking to Lenny Kravitz

802
00:55:37.960 --> 00:55:43.639
and he's thanking me for playing Flyaway. Dude, nobody was playing Lenny Kravitz

803
00:55:43.639 --> 00:55:45.719
on the air. Yeah, well, this time kind of falling apart for

804
00:55:45.719 --> 00:55:49.960
some reason. Yeah, And I
do want to say it was that third

805
00:55:50.039 --> 00:55:52.440
it was the fourth album. It
might have been Circus. I don't think

806
00:55:52.440 --> 00:55:54.760
that was rock and Roll is Dead
or I can't remember what was on there,

807
00:55:55.039 --> 00:55:59.039
but I know that we weren't playing
it. And Lenny Kravitz was already

808
00:55:59.079 --> 00:56:01.519
he was a star, he was
famous, and then the Lisa Bonet,

809
00:56:02.159 --> 00:56:07.239
he was very famous. But we
didn't touch anything off of that fourth album.

810
00:56:07.760 --> 00:56:12.679
No, and that and that stress
is an artist out They want to

811
00:56:12.719 --> 00:56:16.000
be on the radio. So fly
Away with the personal story, it is

812
00:56:16.000 --> 00:56:21.559
a great song. But Flyaway is
uh yeah, with the gold record and

813
00:56:21.599 --> 00:56:24.719
everything that that in the phone call
and the handwritten note, how can how

814
00:56:24.719 --> 00:56:28.719
can that not be my favorite Lenny
Kravitz song? Oh shit, dude,

815
00:56:28.840 --> 00:56:31.039
Wow, that's cool. Yeah,
yeah, yeah, it's it's it's weird

816
00:56:31.039 --> 00:56:36.559
because you know, in the position
like I do now again programming at a

817
00:56:36.639 --> 00:56:38.920
radio station, you're you're shuffling the
deck and you're like, well, you

818
00:56:38.920 --> 00:56:42.480
know, you're looking at songs and
you're just trying to figure out what you

819
00:56:42.519 --> 00:56:46.280
think is gonna work, what it's
not gonna work. And that doesn't happen

820
00:56:46.440 --> 00:56:50.480
very often anymore. It didn't happen
a lot back then either, really,

821
00:56:50.960 --> 00:56:52.360
you know, with a with a
song. But you know, once in

822
00:56:52.360 --> 00:56:55.920
a while you get that magic spark
and like, oh wait, New Orleans

823
00:56:57.000 --> 00:56:59.559
is playing that, and then other
radio stations are gonna look at that go

824
00:56:59.679 --> 00:57:01.679
oh well, I better listen to
that again. And then yeah, the

825
00:57:01.760 --> 00:57:04.840
next one, and then you get
two, and then you get four,

826
00:57:04.880 --> 00:57:06.920
and then you get eight, and
then you get sixty and they say,

827
00:57:06.960 --> 00:57:09.519
you know, you're getting a gold
record from Lenny Kravitz. I don't think

828
00:57:09.559 --> 00:57:14.000
he was even living there at the
time, so there wasn't any well,

829
00:57:14.039 --> 00:57:16.239
you know, he's a you know, he's a he's a citizen. He's

830
00:57:16.320 --> 00:57:19.280
here, you know, it makes
sense for us to play him. I

831
00:57:19.280 --> 00:57:23.000
don't think he moved there until after
that, and nobody really talked about when

832
00:57:23.039 --> 00:57:27.639
he lived here. You didn't hear
about it very often, or at least

833
00:57:27.639 --> 00:57:30.000
I didn't, you know, like
you knew he lived here, but no

834
00:57:30.000 --> 00:57:32.239
one ever was freaking out about it, you know what I mean. It

835
00:57:32.320 --> 00:57:37.159
was just it was it was late
nineties. Yeah, it was late nineties,

836
00:57:37.199 --> 00:57:42.760
so it was clearly after fly Away. So again I didn't play the

837
00:57:42.800 --> 00:57:45.840
song because he lived there. There
was no like, you know, hey,

838
00:57:45.880 --> 00:57:49.159
here's one of our own, you
know, because you know, when

839
00:57:49.159 --> 00:57:52.000
you live in a city, the
city kind of adopts you a little bit.

840
00:57:52.239 --> 00:57:55.000
But you're right, like Lenny Kravitz, I don't remember him being out

841
00:57:55.039 --> 00:57:59.840
and about a lot. I'm very
quiet now. When we first moved to

842
00:58:00.000 --> 00:58:04.519
New Orleans, about a year before
we moved there, Trent Resiner moved there,

843
00:58:04.880 --> 00:58:07.960
right, So I mean, I'm
gonna say Resner moved We moved to

844
00:58:07.960 --> 00:58:12.800
New Orleans and ninety five Resiner moved
down there, and maybe ninety three,

845
00:58:13.039 --> 00:58:15.840
and that's when he bought the funeral
home, and you know, he started

846
00:58:15.880 --> 00:58:17.599
working with you know, and then
that's when he started working with Marilyn Manson

847
00:58:17.599 --> 00:58:22.239
and everything. Right, he was
kind of out and about a little bit.

848
00:58:22.360 --> 00:58:27.239
I saw him, Yeah, you
know, I saw him several times.

849
00:58:27.239 --> 00:58:29.840
I saw him at like a Cheap
Trick show. He was in that

850
00:58:30.400 --> 00:58:34.599
loge area and in the House of
Blues. When I got to go backstage

851
00:58:34.639 --> 00:58:37.719
to meet you too, he was
back there, wanted to meet you too.

852
00:58:37.800 --> 00:58:42.360
I mean he was. He was
a New Orleanian. He was out

853
00:58:42.360 --> 00:58:45.440
and about. You know. He
he borrowed our studio to do rock Line

854
00:58:45.760 --> 00:58:51.159
back in the day or whatever.
That show was a national show, came

855
00:58:51.239 --> 00:58:54.400
up on our platform at Voodoo to
watch um I can't remember, Queens of

856
00:58:54.440 --> 00:58:58.119
the Stone Age or something. And
he didn't want to be bothered. He

857
00:58:58.119 --> 00:59:00.559
had goons with him, but he
was around town. He would go to

858
00:59:00.599 --> 00:59:06.000
concerts. I don't remember that vibe
with Lenny being around, going out and

859
00:59:06.119 --> 00:59:08.239
about. Never saw Lenny. I
was in a Marty Girl parade one time,

860
00:59:08.280 --> 00:59:10.960
standing on Saint Charles Avenue. Was
standing there, just standing there catching

861
00:59:10.960 --> 00:59:15.360
beads and hanging out with a beer. And I looked at my left Trent

862
00:59:15.440 --> 00:59:17.760
Resider a leather jacket, just chilling
catching beads. I'm like, right,

863
00:59:19.079 --> 00:59:22.880
I go Weser. But he was
just kind of hopping down there. He

864
00:59:22.920 --> 00:59:24.800
would just stop for a couple minutes, watch a float, and then he

865
00:59:24.840 --> 00:59:28.400
started walking again. I'm just like, holy shit, Trent Resler. And

866
00:59:28.400 --> 00:59:30.840
then yeah, the Voodoo thing.
It might have been that year. We

867
00:59:30.880 --> 00:59:35.519
had like a little platform out in
the field somewhere out back from the stage,

868
00:59:36.000 --> 00:59:37.679
and it might have been a different
year. I don't remember, but

869
00:59:37.679 --> 00:59:39.360
but yeah, he came up and
he's like, hey, might if we

870
00:59:39.400 --> 00:59:45.920
stand up here and watch Cypress Hill. I go, yeah, you could

871
00:59:45.920 --> 00:59:47.400
do whatever the fuck you want.
Dude, you're Trent Resider coming up,

872
00:59:47.440 --> 00:59:51.199
you want to drink, you want
whatever, you know. I'm gonna get

873
00:59:51.199 --> 00:59:58.559
on my knees and I'm away the
year then, I mean, we might

874
00:59:58.559 --> 01:00:01.719
be talking about the exact same story. I remember being on the air broadcasting

875
01:00:01.800 --> 01:00:07.199
at the Voodoo Festival. Hey,
you know, Trent Residers. People are

876
01:00:07.199 --> 01:00:08.159
here, they want to know,
you know. Can he come up?

877
01:00:09.199 --> 01:00:14.159
And I remember immediately, you know, because you remember thinking about how your

878
01:00:14.440 --> 01:00:17.559
mindset was back then. Yeah,
he can watch, but he's got to

879
01:00:17.559 --> 01:00:23.599
come on the air and say hi, Yeah, no problem after that's the

880
01:00:23.719 --> 01:00:28.800
problem. Yeah, he'll do it
after. So he came up with his

881
01:00:28.880 --> 01:00:30.199
goons and I don't I don't know
if we're talking about the same time,

882
01:00:30.239 --> 01:00:35.679
but mine specifically is yeah, he'll
come over. You know how great would

883
01:00:35.679 --> 01:00:37.480
that be? Hey we got Trent
resider man, Hey, who do you

884
01:00:37.519 --> 01:00:40.440
here to see what you're working on? That type of thing. Second to

885
01:00:40.559 --> 01:00:44.480
last song, I don't remember what
fucking band it was, Boom they boogie

886
01:00:44.519 --> 01:00:46.639
out. He's not going on the
air with us. I know he just

887
01:00:47.079 --> 01:00:50.840
wants to go and hang. He
wants to go and experienced things. But

888
01:00:50.920 --> 01:00:52.000
yeah, no, he seem around
every once in a while. Or you

889
01:00:52.079 --> 01:00:55.280
hear stories saw Trent residents the grocery
store. I'm like, that had to

890
01:00:55.320 --> 01:00:59.679
be weird. No, this fucking
melanate right, he's the thumping on a

891
01:00:59.719 --> 01:01:02.519
melon as Trent Resident people say that
he would. There was a there was

892
01:01:02.639 --> 01:01:06.960
a gym in lake View that he
used to work out at. That's when

893
01:01:06.960 --> 01:01:08.480
he really started to get in shape, right, believe it or not.

894
01:01:08.599 --> 01:01:12.599
In New Orleans is when he started
to really start a little skinny guy.

895
01:01:12.960 --> 01:01:15.440
If you go back to you know, pretty hate Machine and all that,

896
01:01:15.519 --> 01:01:17.519
he was a little skinny dude,
but he started to get really buff and

897
01:01:17.800 --> 01:01:22.800
uh he was working out in New
Orleans all the time. Yeah, yeah,

898
01:01:22.440 --> 01:01:29.400
Um, things that didn't make my
list again with that damn falsetto.

899
01:01:29.599 --> 01:01:34.079
Only he can do it well,
only he and the bgs. It ain't

900
01:01:34.119 --> 01:01:37.119
over till it's over, Yes,
And he always talked about how personal that

901
01:01:37.199 --> 01:01:42.199
song is was to him because that's
right where he was. The whole song

902
01:01:42.320 --> 01:01:46.480
is about him and Lisa Bonet arguing. So it's it's one of those where

903
01:01:46.519 --> 01:01:50.599
he's really letting you in. Man. It ain't over till it's over.

904
01:01:50.719 --> 01:01:54.280
It sounds like he's kind of fighting
to keep that marriage together. And uh,

905
01:01:54.360 --> 01:01:59.800
it's a super super personal song.
It's got a beautiful string section in

906
01:02:00.000 --> 01:02:04.199
it and everything. Again, a
lot of songs and I like this a

907
01:02:04.280 --> 01:02:10.280
lot of the Lenny Kravitz songs.
I associate the video and Mister cab Driver

908
01:02:10.440 --> 01:02:14.440
has always been a personal favorite of
mine. Banger love that too. I

909
01:02:14.599 --> 01:02:16.679
love Mister cab Drivers. So,
I mean, those first two Lenny Kravitz

910
01:02:16.679 --> 01:02:25.079
albums are unbelievable. The first two
albums he I went to Toronto and he

911
01:02:25.320 --> 01:02:30.719
opened up for the cult What a
shovel Man, And that was right when

912
01:02:30.760 --> 01:02:34.760
he was brand new. That was
on the first album that he was touring.

913
01:02:35.280 --> 01:02:42.119
Awesome. Just you still kind of
thought maybe he's just the celebrities kid,

914
01:02:43.199 --> 01:02:47.079
but fuck, it was so good. You were hoping that it wasn't

915
01:02:47.159 --> 01:02:52.599
just a lucky thing, and clearly
he turned out to be this just megastar.

916
01:02:52.119 --> 01:02:55.679
You know when you think about where
where he fits into the whole scheme

917
01:02:55.719 --> 01:02:59.559
of the ship. We talk about
every episode about you know, the early

918
01:02:59.679 --> 01:03:01.679
nine in the nineties and stuff and
jen X and all that shit, you

919
01:03:01.760 --> 01:03:05.960
know, grunge, Ellison, Chains, Nirvana, Pearl Jeb all that stuff.

920
01:03:06.239 --> 01:03:07.760
Lenny Kravitz was one of these guys. It was just kind of always

921
01:03:07.800 --> 01:03:10.199
along in there. He was always
in that fabric. You know, he

922
01:03:10.320 --> 01:03:15.119
wasn't that level obviously, but his
ship would come in and come out,

923
01:03:15.519 --> 01:03:16.440
you know, are you gonna go? My Way? Was massive. We

924
01:03:16.559 --> 01:03:20.000
still play it, you know,
from time to time, you know.

925
01:03:20.239 --> 01:03:22.280
And then thank god you showed up, because otherwise, what would Letty be

926
01:03:22.320 --> 01:03:27.599
doing now without Flyaway? Thank you? Would he That's why he probably had

927
01:03:27.599 --> 01:03:32.800
to sell his place until you saved
Lenny. Call me we can catch up.

928
01:03:34.960 --> 01:03:38.880
Rod Ryan saves Lenny Kravitz headlines pretty
much, I mean pretty much.

929
01:03:39.400 --> 01:03:44.599
Thank god you keep the note,
but he uh yeah, I have it

930
01:03:44.679 --> 01:03:49.199
with the record. Uh. It's
not a traditional it's not a traditional gold

931
01:03:49.280 --> 01:03:52.719
record, it's still it's an r
I a A certified, but the gold

932
01:03:52.760 --> 01:03:57.599
record itself is a number five.
Oh yeah, I mean yeah, yeah,

933
01:03:57.639 --> 01:04:00.360
it's a it's a plexiglass number five
and it's got the R A A

934
01:04:00.480 --> 01:04:05.000
certification and then you know it's got
the brass plate in there with your name

935
01:04:05.039 --> 01:04:10.239
engraved in it. So it's to
me, and yeah, it's it's that's

936
01:04:10.320 --> 01:04:13.239
probably the most special one. I
have a bunch of those, but that's

937
01:04:13.280 --> 01:04:16.199
the most special one for sure,
just because it came from I felt like,

938
01:04:16.840 --> 01:04:19.519
like, I don't know, the
guy made me believe that he wanted

939
01:04:19.559 --> 01:04:21.480
me to have it. I'm like, okay, thank you, Lenny,

940
01:04:21.480 --> 01:04:30.000
I appreciate it. That is pretty
good. That's pretty cool. I saw

941
01:04:30.119 --> 01:04:33.920
Lenny Kravitz here in Houston. He
wasn't having his best night. He talked

942
01:04:33.920 --> 01:04:38.239
about his voice not being well,
but he didn't want to cancel the show.

943
01:04:40.719 --> 01:04:45.440
And in his backing band was Trombone
Shorty. Well. They were in

944
01:04:45.519 --> 01:04:48.920
BFFs for years. Man, they
played together all the time. Yeah,

945
01:04:48.960 --> 01:04:51.760
but I imagine they kind of met
in New Orleans, right, yeah,

946
01:04:51.920 --> 01:04:56.400
yeah, because so yeah, so
he's got a horn section with him when

947
01:04:56.440 --> 01:04:59.119
he's out on tour and yeah,
he's got Trombone Shorty, and he called

948
01:04:59.199 --> 01:05:03.199
him out. He said, yeah, Trombone Shorty back there before. Trombone

949
01:05:03.199 --> 01:05:06.440
Shorty was huge, huge, you
know, I mean, if you're in

950
01:05:06.480 --> 01:05:11.719
New Orleans, Trombone Shorty is huge. But yeah, that was pretty great.

951
01:05:12.239 --> 01:05:14.800
He brought him up up front,
kind of like you would bring a

952
01:05:14.840 --> 01:05:17.280
guitar player up front or kind of
you know, you'd feature your your lead

953
01:05:17.360 --> 01:05:20.239
guitar player. He brought Trombone Shorty
up to the front a little bit and

954
01:05:20.840 --> 01:05:25.159
jammed with him. It was pretty
awesome. It's funny you mentioned about Trombone

955
01:05:25.199 --> 01:05:28.119
Shorty because, like, you know, he closes out the last Sunday to

956
01:05:28.239 --> 01:05:30.599
jazz Fest every year, and all
my friends, who are you know,

957
01:05:30.719 --> 01:05:32.599
Usually when I've got out of towners, I'm like, okay, you know,

958
01:05:32.719 --> 01:05:36.079
you just saw this whole thing all
weekend whatever. You're drunk and you're

959
01:05:36.440 --> 01:05:40.559
full of all the great food and
you've seen a million bands. Now we

960
01:05:40.719 --> 01:05:43.039
go close it out with Trombone Shorty. They're like, nah, let's just

961
01:05:43.159 --> 01:05:45.320
leave. I don't need some I
don't need some fucking band dork up there

962
01:05:45.400 --> 01:05:49.440
on stage. And I'm like Oh
good lord, you are missing it because

963
01:05:49.880 --> 01:05:54.039
I have converted so many people into
Trombone Shorty fans. I go, just

964
01:05:54.159 --> 01:05:57.960
give me two songs, Give me
two songs. Okay. He comes walking

965
01:05:58.000 --> 01:06:00.719
out in the band is spectacular,
and there's all these horn players and they

966
01:06:00.920 --> 01:06:05.519
are just destroying. And by the
end of you just like, where do

967
01:06:05.599 --> 01:06:09.360
I buy a ship? This is
awesome, Like, it doesn't take much

968
01:06:09.679 --> 01:06:13.440
to get become a fan for trump
of Trombone Shorty. It's fucking great.

969
01:06:13.960 --> 01:06:17.480
So the Chili Peppers are playing here
Thursday night Tomorrow night at Minute Made Park.

970
01:06:17.679 --> 01:06:23.039
The last time they played here,
they played the Toyota Center. Trombone

971
01:06:23.079 --> 01:06:26.960
Shorty opened up. Wow. He
was out on tour with the Chili Peppers.

972
01:06:27.800 --> 01:06:31.519
So we managed to get some awesome
side stage type deal or whatever.

973
01:06:31.599 --> 01:06:36.480
And we're standing there and we're watching
the Chili Peppers and you and you're Trent

974
01:06:36.599 --> 01:06:41.480
Resin Trombone Shorty fucking standing right next
to us. I'm like, Jesus Christ,

975
01:06:42.119 --> 01:06:45.920
Trombone Shorty, what the fuck is
up? Bro? And talking to

976
01:06:46.039 --> 01:06:48.920
him the whole deal. Man super
great guy said, dude, you know

977
01:06:49.559 --> 01:06:54.679
New Orleans Jazz vest Senior million times
now that you're closing, you know,

978
01:06:54.960 --> 01:06:58.519
congratulations on being the guy that's closing
it out and stuff. He seemed to

979
01:06:58.559 --> 01:07:00.039
be you know, at least the
did like, hey, you know,

980
01:07:00.159 --> 01:07:04.639
thanks for knowing some of those things. So the time didn't you know,

981
01:07:04.760 --> 01:07:09.039
didn't talk as a or off the
Chili Peppers are on stage, but um,

982
01:07:09.760 --> 01:07:12.800
just telling him that that, you
know, he's closing jazz Fest because

983
01:07:12.840 --> 01:07:16.840
it was something that the Neville Brothers
did forever, and you know, Jason

984
01:07:17.280 --> 01:07:20.400
coined the term years ago. It's
like that was walkout music. Yep,

985
01:07:20.480 --> 01:07:25.639
that the Neville Brothers pack up the
chairs and then that's what we're gonna listen

986
01:07:25.679 --> 01:07:30.800
to when we're walking out. And
then Trombone Shorty changed all that shit.

987
01:07:30.960 --> 01:07:33.280
We're not walking out, We're staying
to the end, and we're not trying

988
01:07:33.320 --> 01:07:36.519
to beat the traffic, beat the
crowd. No, we're staying here for

989
01:07:36.599 --> 01:07:42.400
this the last band of the last
weekend. Yeah. And he brings it.

990
01:07:42.480 --> 01:07:46.000
I mean it's just brought. He
fucking brings it every year and he's

991
01:07:46.039 --> 01:07:49.320
so great. So so yeah,
yeah, no, and Trombo and Shorty

992
01:07:49.400 --> 01:07:54.679
was would go out with Lenny Kravitz
so and you can see a little influence

993
01:07:54.719 --> 01:07:58.400
of Lenny Kravitz on trombone Shorty.
Sometimes the way he sings a little bit

994
01:07:58.599 --> 01:08:02.039
where he moves around, you can
totally see there is a certain influence with

995
01:08:02.239 --> 01:08:04.760
that whole thing. Right, let's
take a quick break and then let's wrap

996
01:08:04.840 --> 01:08:08.320
this thing up. Dude, Let's
let's get it done. We gotta get

stories about the French Quarter. I mean

1010
01:08:57.239 --> 01:09:01.239
real stories. I don't think it
was last week or the week before.

1011
01:09:01.439 --> 01:09:05.279
And we didn't end up shitting on
anything, but we just talked some of

1012
01:09:05.319 --> 01:09:09.199
the differences and some of the other
tours. And this is real history.

1013
01:09:09.560 --> 01:09:13.000

01:09:15.760 --> 01:09:24.079
socials at Pirates of the Quarter.
Okay, so let's let's talk about this

1016
01:09:24.199 --> 01:09:27.640
movie. I gotta watch this weekend. I forgot about that part you have.

1017
01:09:27.800 --> 01:09:30.600
I mean obviously Private Ryan Saving probably
Ryan. I'll probably watch that.

1018
01:09:30.800 --> 01:09:33.439
That'll be on at some point.
I'll have it on and I'll walk by

1019
01:09:33.479 --> 01:09:39.079
it, you know, a bunch
of the weekend, and I'm sure is

1020
01:09:39.119 --> 01:09:44.319
it AMC somebody will run all of
the bandam Brothers, Right, They'll just

1021
01:09:44.399 --> 01:09:46.399
kind of have a marathon on.
Yeah, I would imagine so, and

1022
01:09:46.520 --> 01:09:50.239
that's just so great. So yeah, it'll just be war movies all week

1023
01:09:50.239 --> 01:09:54.520
got at my house for this.
But you've got this movie that I didn't

1024
01:09:54.560 --> 01:09:57.800
watch last year, and I hope
to get to it this year, so

1025
01:09:58.000 --> 01:10:00.479
I think it might be made for
HBO. And maybe that's why I don't

1026
01:10:00.520 --> 01:10:03.960
think it was ever something that was
in movie theaters. Maybe I'm not sure,

1027
01:10:04.119 --> 01:10:10.600
but it's Kevin Bacon and the movie
is called Taking Chance, and Chance

1028
01:10:10.760 --> 01:10:14.920
is the name of a soldier.
And when a soldier passes away, which

1029
01:10:15.039 --> 01:10:20.279
is why we have this long weekend, the amount of respect and what and

1030
01:10:20.479 --> 01:10:27.239
how that body is transported back to
the family. You'll learn so much.

1031
01:10:28.039 --> 01:10:30.960
Kevin Bacon is brilliant in it.
Kevin Bacon is we need to do a

1032
01:10:31.039 --> 01:10:34.840
top five Kevin Bacon movies. He's
been a billion of them. We might

1033
01:10:35.000 --> 01:10:42.039
almost have to expand to top ten. Kevin Bacon's done so much Taking Chance.

1034
01:10:44.319 --> 01:10:47.720
He wants to do this job and
it's so difficult, and he wants

1035
01:10:47.800 --> 01:10:55.720
to be respectful. And you just
will be blown away at the transportation of

1036
01:10:55.960 --> 01:11:00.680
a fallen soldier's body and the amount
of respect every where. And you know,

1037
01:11:01.600 --> 01:11:11.119
sometimes these bodies are on commercial flights
and they're down there with the with

1038
01:11:11.239 --> 01:11:14.359
the luggage and stuff, and people
are looking out the window and they can

1039
01:11:14.520 --> 01:11:18.680
see and they all stop. It's
amazing, dude, I cannot stress enough

1040
01:11:19.119 --> 01:11:25.479
the movie Taking Chance, Kevin Bacon. It is an absolute must from a

1041
01:11:25.560 --> 01:11:28.479
moral day weekend. All right,
I'm gonna have to watch a damn movie

1042
01:11:28.520 --> 01:11:35.279
now, I promise you hands down, two thumbs up. It's just it's

1043
01:11:35.319 --> 01:11:43.239
just an amazing movie, and you'll
come away just appreciating this weekend that we're

1044
01:11:43.239 --> 01:11:49.119
about to have tenfold good advice,
good advice. I'm taking Chance. I'm

1045
01:11:49.239 --> 01:11:51.520
gonna have to watch it this weekend
because I said I'm gonna do it last

1046
01:11:51.600 --> 01:11:56.680
year. Yep, Mike Stands did
well. Mike Stands a little smarter than

1047
01:11:56.680 --> 01:11:59.119
I am. He is a lot
smarter than you. I feel a lot

1048
01:11:59.199 --> 01:12:01.680
smarter than I and say Crans although
you know what, but he does.

1049
01:12:02.800 --> 01:12:06.960
What do you have for some final
thoughts there, Jason Guinty, anyone wants

1050
01:12:08.000 --> 01:12:11.680
to use my grill, they can
fuck off. That's what I learned today.

1051
01:12:11.720 --> 01:12:14.399
That's my final thought. I'm not
letting anyone touch Mike. I will

1052
01:12:14.479 --> 01:12:19.399
smash your fingers with my spatula.
Move forward. I've learned something that I

1053
01:12:19.479 --> 01:12:24.600
didn't realize that was a thing.
No idea, dude, it's I mean,

1054
01:12:25.159 --> 01:12:27.720
yeah, like I said, you
wouldn't let this guy make out with

1055
01:12:27.800 --> 01:12:30.199
your wife. Don't let him,
don't let him play wrong with your grill.

1056
01:12:30.600 --> 01:12:34.680
Weird again. If he brings something, then okay, I really feel

1057
01:12:35.319 --> 01:12:41.800
like I said I Chili does a
great job when he brings that crazy he

1058
01:12:41.880 --> 01:12:44.239
goes to the Mexican meat market.
I'm like, okay, bro, you

1059
01:12:44.399 --> 01:12:46.279
do that, you do you,
you do all that, but boom,

1060
01:12:46.399 --> 01:12:48.840
now the grill, dude, it's
your grill. Come on, come on,

1061
01:12:49.119 --> 01:12:51.439
dude, you're better than that.
All right. I didn't know this.

1062
01:12:51.560 --> 01:12:54.840
I just was like, hey,
man, ils fair in love and

1063
01:12:54.920 --> 01:12:57.199
war. Man, I'm good with
it. How about you run any thoughts

1064
01:12:57.359 --> 01:13:01.479
and no, you're not using my
grill. Um. I will be in

1065
01:13:01.520 --> 01:13:05.319
New Orleans this weekend? Are you
fucking kidding me? I'm gonna be not

1066
01:13:05.399 --> 01:13:11.359
in New Orleans this weekend. Yeah, but I don't have the kid.

1067
01:13:12.000 --> 01:13:15.520
So I planned this out well,
I know, so it's a last minute

1068
01:13:15.560 --> 01:13:21.800
thing. It just went down yesterday. I believe I have a friend Chris

1069
01:13:21.920 --> 01:13:29.279
here that just turned fifty. My
buddy Dennis just turned seventy. So I

1070
01:13:29.439 --> 01:13:34.479
sent a text and it said,
kunts no, Jesus so much. I

1071
01:13:34.880 --> 01:13:41.119
don't have my kid this weekend.
There's a one thirty flight on Friday to

1072
01:13:41.239 --> 01:13:45.840
New Orleans. Let's be on it. And again I only send it to

1073
01:13:45.920 --> 01:13:48.800
them too, because it's their birthday
and I know that they're kind of their

1074
01:13:48.880 --> 01:13:54.600
their liquid. Neither one of them
is married, kids are older. And

1075
01:13:55.079 --> 01:13:57.159
they both got back to me and
they're like, okay, boom, we're

1076
01:13:57.199 --> 01:13:59.760
in, We're in, We're in. So yeah, it's one of those.

1077
01:14:00.119 --> 01:14:02.279
So it's a dude. It's a
dude New Orleans weekend. Where what

1078
01:14:02.359 --> 01:14:04.399
should we do? We'll come to
New Orleans. What should we do?

1079
01:14:04.760 --> 01:14:09.319
All of it? All of it? Drink everything and eat everything. There

1080
01:14:09.359 --> 01:14:11.520
you go, That's what I would
do. I would I would get my

1081
01:14:11.600 --> 01:14:15.199
ass down like Frenchman Street, go
see some good music. Yeah, we

1082
01:14:15.319 --> 01:14:17.279
fucking walking up down Bourbon Street all
night. That's that's cool for about an

1083
01:14:17.279 --> 01:14:19.680
hour. Then you got to get
off to the weeds. Gotta get out

1084
01:14:19.680 --> 01:14:23.520
there a little bit and see some
shit. You know. Yeah, you

1085
01:14:23.600 --> 01:14:27.560
know, neither one of those mooks
have ever been on a train on a

1086
01:14:27.680 --> 01:14:30.680
trolley, So st I thought we
would take a street car, and I

1087
01:14:30.760 --> 01:14:34.800
thought we would maybe take it up
all the way up Saint Charles and maybe,

1088
01:14:35.079 --> 01:14:36.880
you know, even if we just
wrote it all the way up to

1089
01:14:38.079 --> 01:14:41.560
Couter Browns or something. You know, yeah, do that, go up

1090
01:14:41.600 --> 01:14:45.520
there and then go down to the
Maple Leaf right next to Jacomo's. Actually,

1091
01:14:45.520 --> 01:14:46.560
you know you do. Get you? I got you, dude,

1092
01:14:46.600 --> 01:14:49.640
I got you. You go up
and get dropped off at the Camellia Grill.

1093
01:14:49.920 --> 01:14:53.560
Get off at Chamillia Grill, walk
down, go to Jacomo's, have

1094
01:14:53.680 --> 01:14:57.920
dinner fucking classic. They'll love the
place. The food's great, it's insane.

1095
01:14:58.199 --> 01:15:00.560
And then go next door to the
Maple Leaf. See so band you'll

1096
01:15:00.600 --> 01:15:02.840
never heard of, but they'll be
great. Um, And then get back

1097
01:15:02.880 --> 01:15:06.199
in the damn street car and head
down a little bit. Then head over

1098
01:15:06.319 --> 01:15:10.520
to you go to the Columns for
a nice, nice drink over there,

1099
01:15:10.640 --> 01:15:13.479
get yourself a nice drink. Well, I gotta take him to Snake and

1100
01:15:13.560 --> 01:15:16.680
Jake's. Oh well, but then
you go all the way back to the

1101
01:15:16.800 --> 01:15:20.079
Quarter. Then you go over to
Frenchman Street, and then about three am

1102
01:15:20.159 --> 01:15:23.880
you uber up the Snake and you
can't go into Snake and Jake's until at

1103
01:15:23.920 --> 01:15:27.640
least one thirty in the morning.
Dude, you come on, what's your

1104
01:15:27.680 --> 01:15:30.359
first time to New Ones? Right? Seriously, Snake and Jake's is a

1105
01:15:31.039 --> 01:15:34.800
late night place. Yes, yes
it is. I've been there in years

1106
01:15:34.880 --> 01:15:42.000
either man. Another great place I
went about four years ago. Yeah it

1107
01:15:42.199 --> 01:15:45.479
was awesome. Yeah, it always
it was awesome. We talked about that

1108
01:15:45.560 --> 01:15:47.000
on the podcast before. Jason and
I roll in there about two in the

1109
01:15:47.039 --> 01:15:53.760
morning and Stephen Kenny, the drummer
from Alison Chains, is playing the piano.

1110
01:15:54.199 --> 01:15:58.560
Sean Kenny, Johnny Kenny Kenny.
Yeah, he's in there playing the

1111
01:15:58.560 --> 01:16:00.520
piano there. Yeah, that's the
drummer Allson Chains. I'm like, what,

1112
01:16:00.159 --> 01:16:03.159
like, holy shit, sure as
shit is? Yeah, yeah,

1113
01:16:03.359 --> 01:16:05.439
yeah, that's that would be my
move, man. I would just just

1114
01:16:05.600 --> 01:16:09.560
keep going, just keep if it
looks good, don't do the same old

1115
01:16:09.600 --> 01:16:11.760
same well, fine, get out, get out and stretch your legs a

1116
01:16:11.800 --> 01:16:15.279
little bit, stretch your wings.
See some shot is the key under the

1117
01:16:15.319 --> 01:16:17.479
mat case. I need to come
over and grill and you know, jump

1118
01:16:17.560 --> 01:16:23.760

01:16:23.800 --> 01:16:29.560

party, not grilling, not grilling,

1120
01:16:29.640 --> 01:16:30.720
dude, Sorry, ain't happening that. No one, you know what,

1121
01:16:30.760 --> 01:16:32.520
anyone comes to my house. I
don't give a shit who you are.

1122
01:16:32.640 --> 01:16:35.199
Emerald can come over and be like, hey, I'm gonna get the fuck

1123
01:16:35.239 --> 01:16:41.119

fingers in there. Never cook again.

1130
01:17:03.359 --> 01:17:05.840
songs that you you know, maybe
just off the top of your head,

1131
01:17:05.840 --> 01:17:09.560
you only know three or four Lenny
Kravitz songs, man, drop those on

1132
01:17:09.680 --> 01:17:13.640
there. And then of course with
Memorial Day weekend, you know, those

1133
01:17:13.720 --> 01:17:18.159
that made the ultimate sacrifice. It's
pretty amazing. One of the most amazing

1134
01:17:18.279 --> 01:17:25.439
things I ever ever seen in my
entire life is being at Arlington National Cemetery

1135
01:17:25.720 --> 01:17:29.159
and the tomb of the Unknown Soldier
and the changing of the guard and everything.

1136
01:17:30.039 --> 01:17:31.239
It's one of the most amazing things. And I know that will be

1137
01:17:31.439 --> 01:17:35.199
featured on, you know, all
the national newscasts, and the President will

1138
01:17:35.199 --> 01:17:40.439
probably swing by there and stuff.
This weekend. If you have never been

1139
01:17:40.680 --> 01:17:45.560
to Washington DC as an adult,
some of you probably you know, went

1140
01:17:45.640 --> 01:17:49.000
to cool schools and you had field
trips. I didn't. I didn't go

1141
01:17:49.079 --> 01:17:53.000
as a child either, but you
won't appreciate it as a child. Go

1142
01:17:53.119 --> 01:17:58.279
as an adult to Washington, d
C. It is absolutely unbelievable. Just

1143
01:17:58.439 --> 01:18:00.319
go at it. I mean,
it doesn't matter, but you just go

1144
01:18:00.399 --> 01:18:03.960
in a time of year when you
can walk and Arlington National Cemetery and all

1145
01:18:04.000 --> 01:18:10.159
of that stuff is it's just it's
unbelievable. So um, that is another

1146
01:18:10.359 --> 01:18:13.800
huge recommendation of mine to every for
everyone to do in their adult lives.

1147
01:18:14.520 --> 01:18:18.680
When there a couple of years ago
and we got to see in this I

1148
01:18:18.720 --> 01:18:21.880
guess it's in the Smithsonian I remember, but the Declaration of Independence, the

1149
01:18:21.920 --> 01:18:25.720
Bill of Rights and on stuff.
And we got there. We were like

1150
01:18:25.760 --> 01:18:30.199
the second people in line. Like
usually there's a fucking crowd of people and

1151
01:18:30.279 --> 01:18:33.760
you can barely look at the Declaration
of Independence, you know, And we

1152
01:18:34.039 --> 01:18:39.039
had the room was us and you
know, the seventeen security guard standing around

1153
01:18:39.079 --> 01:18:42.359
there. It was literally my wife, me and my son for about five

1154
01:18:42.439 --> 01:18:45.640
minutes in the room with a Declaration
of Independence by ourselves. I'm like,

1155
01:18:46.119 --> 01:18:50.399
holy fuck, is this crazy to
sit in that room and just be looking

1156
01:18:50.439 --> 01:18:56.439
at that going, dude, this
is insane. Like to see that stuff

1157
01:18:56.479 --> 01:18:59.680
and really appreciate it. It really
is a cool thing to check out.

1158
01:19:00.239 --> 01:19:02.000
Uh, you know, And I
went over to Mountain Vernon, saw George

1159
01:19:02.079 --> 01:19:05.119
Washington's house, you know, did
all that stuff. Yeah, now,

1160
01:19:05.199 --> 01:19:08.520
Washington c Is a great trip.
I want to do it again because there

1161
01:19:08.600 --> 01:19:12.600
is so much there to learn,
you know, the tours of you know,

1162
01:19:12.800 --> 01:19:15.239
the Congress or the Capitol Building and
all that shit. There's a lot

1163
01:19:15.279 --> 01:19:17.119
of cool stuff you can check out. Yeah, you can contact your local

1164
01:19:17.199 --> 01:19:23.520
congressmen and they have like minions and
when you're when you're in town, that's

1165
01:19:23.560 --> 01:19:26.960
their job is to I mean,
we pay it for all of that,

1166
01:19:27.239 --> 01:19:30.079
you know. And that's why all
those Smithsonians that you were mentioning, they're

1167
01:19:30.119 --> 01:19:34.279
all free. They are there's no
admission, and there's and I imagine that

1168
01:19:34.399 --> 01:19:38.279
somebody is hearing this for the first
time, there's more than one Smithsonian.

1169
01:19:38.640 --> 01:19:41.520
There's the Air and Space one,
and then there's the one that's got Fonsi's

1170
01:19:41.600 --> 01:19:45.359
jacket and Archie Bunker's chair, and
you know, there's different Smithsonians. But

1171
01:19:45.000 --> 01:19:49.520
yeah, you can contact your your
local congressman and they'll assign you like some

1172
01:19:49.640 --> 01:19:53.720
little menu. They'll call you back
and they'll get you in, they'll get

1173
01:19:53.760 --> 01:19:57.079
your badge and they'll show you around. They'll walk you around. Yep,

1174
01:19:57.239 --> 01:20:00.319
it's cool. It's cool as shit. And then to actually see the Lincoln

1175
01:20:00.880 --> 01:20:04.800
