Speaker 1: I like the musical job. You know, it's like cop
Speaker 1: Chase scene or something. Damn Coacheese, like Cavanaugh Chief Digby
Speaker 1: Cabbage sausage. I don't quite get it. It's fine.
Speaker 2: So, uh, I just wanted to say, welcome back to
Speaker 2: the Paul Junior Podcast with my guest star, Mikey.
Speaker 1: I love the guest star. Guest stars feels good. It
Speaker 1: feels way better.
Speaker 2: Michael is my guest star, okay on the podcast today.
Speaker 2: He might be my only guest Actually, I don't think.
Speaker 2: I might have had a few other people, but Mike
Speaker 2: he's been uh, you know, I'm like.
Speaker 1: Steve Martin on SNL back in the day, exactly. It
Speaker 1: works out so well. I just keep coming back there
Speaker 1: you go.
Speaker 2: So see, Yep, we're loving life. And uh, I'm gonna
Speaker 2: talk to Mikey a little bit about some of the
Speaker 2: stuff he's got going on.
Speaker 1: Some new interesting stuff, new interesting.
Speaker 2: Stuff, and uh, and then we're gonna watch the Mikey Bike.
Speaker 2: We've never done anything like this. I don't know how
Speaker 2: either of us feel about it. Fully, I know Michael
Speaker 2: has some hesitation. He's not a big fan of watching
Speaker 2: the show. Frankly, I struggle with it.
Speaker 1: Myself. So I kind of understand I worry about triggers. Yeah,
Speaker 1: you see, I don't worry about that at all. Yeah,
Speaker 1: let's see. We'll see what happens. You're in a spiral
Speaker 1: out of control. Yeah, we liquor on the drive home.
Speaker 1: Maybe it'll be cathartic for you. Man, I get a
Speaker 1: bought a liquor for the drive home. It might be.
Speaker 1: All right, well, listen, we'll play it by here it is,
Speaker 1: would it be? You know it is? We should have
Speaker 1: a safe word though. Okay, something really triggers you New
Speaker 1: England clam chat chowder chowder? All right, well listen, I
Speaker 1: know you've got a lot going on. Tell me, tell
Speaker 1: me what's going on, bro. I'm making a movie. Okay, man,
Speaker 1: this is what I want to hear about. I have
Speaker 1: a Kickstarter okay, campaign going on. I like it. And
Speaker 1: what's the Kickstarter. It's Mikey Tuttle is making a movie.
Speaker 1: Mikey Tuttle is making a movie. That's the Kickstarter. That's
Speaker 1: how to search it. Yeah, that's the title for Mikey Tuttle.
Speaker 2: You.
Speaker 1: I think there is no other Mikey Tuttle's on there
Speaker 1: as far as I know. Okay, so that's good. So
Speaker 1: trying to do the crowdfunding thing X amount of money,
Speaker 1: then I could pull the trigger. Okay, I've got three
Speaker 1: actors lined up, Okay, I've got the story. You got
Speaker 1: the storyline, story.
Speaker 2: Okay, you got a script you can share with anyone
Speaker 2: or what soft scripted or anything or no.
Speaker 1: Hammer out the dialogue right now. Put the story's out there.
Speaker 1: Stories in there, okay, in the minds of the act
Speaker 1: Proof is in the pudding. Proof will be in the
Speaker 1: pudding because I make this film. What kind of money
Speaker 1: you're looking for? It's about six thousand dollars. Okay, that
Speaker 1: seems like reasonable, but it's reasonable. Yeah, for making a fense.
Speaker 1: You should be able to raise that.
Speaker 2: And then what happens with the film? You got some
Speaker 2: thoughts about where it lives. Well, that money is for
Speaker 2: like props, location and paying the actors. You got to
Speaker 2: pay people to show up.
Speaker 1: Of course, you got to pay them even more to
Speaker 1: do what you ask, that's right. Uh, and they don't
Speaker 1: always do that really Yeah, this part it could be difficult.
Speaker 1: Yeah yeah, yeah. I've had actors tell me to go
Speaker 1: screw myself. Really yeah, very I'm timid about giving a
Speaker 1: line because it was something that I really mean something
Speaker 1: to me, but I realized a little off kilter. Yeah yeah, yeah, yeah,
Speaker 1: I wouldn't say that. I'm not doing that, Like, okay,
Speaker 1: slink off, you're at the mercy of the actors. Yeah,
Speaker 1: that are really laid on and get aggressive.
Speaker 2: So give me, give me a little, give me a
Speaker 2: little idea, like if people are willing to invest in
Speaker 2: Mikey's movie, right, yeah, what what does this look like?
Speaker 2: And in the end game do they get to see
Speaker 2: the final product?
Speaker 1: They do get to see the final product. Yes, absolutely,
Speaker 1: And I could do this in a timely fashion rather
Speaker 1: than produce it myself and just kind of piecemeal it
Speaker 1: over a long amount of time. You kind of lose
Speaker 1: a certain rhythm.
Speaker 2: You want to get it done in like a shorter
Speaker 2: window so you can hold to the whole storyline.
Speaker 1: Boom, get in, get out, gotcha? Okay?
Speaker 3: Makes sense.
Speaker 1: And the film is about a documentarian, a successful documentarian,
Speaker 1: you know, and he misappropriates a grant money from a
Speaker 1: foreign country to make a scripted film about his father. Interesting.
Speaker 1: His father was a bit of a hooligan and a
Speaker 1: bit of a drunk. Interesting. Okay, I like it man. Yeah,
Speaker 1: and though his father was really flawed, he has like
Speaker 1: a certain I guess perfect love for his dad. Really, yeah,
Speaker 1: because everybody's always mad, idealistic, or everybody always rolls their
Speaker 1: eyes at their dad. But this guy, it's the only
Speaker 1: anything that's really kind of perfect about the main character.
Speaker 2: Interesting. Other than that, he's very flawed. Really, he's got
Speaker 2: some broken parts, this one broken parts based heavily on me,
Speaker 2: some of his exploits. No, no, not the person himself
Speaker 2: or the relationship with his father or anything like that.
Speaker 2: But every mistake I've made in a film so far, filming,
Speaker 2: I've kind of included into into this. Okay, So it's
Speaker 2: going to be full of mistakes or you're losing mistakes
Speaker 2: as you move on.
Speaker 1: I'm losing mistakes. It will be full of some mistakes.
Speaker 1: I'm not out of the woods yet.
Speaker 3: I like it. That's good.
Speaker 1: Well, how long you've been making short films like but
Speaker 1: I'm really making fun of myself and this this will
Speaker 1: be my fourth film, okay, over the course of over
Speaker 1: the course of seven years, seven years, okay. I really
Speaker 1: started taking it seriously around forty okay, Yeah, that's when
Speaker 1: I cut the sauce completely. Really. Yeah, yeah, you got
Speaker 1: focused focused. That's good. Yeah, and it's enjoyable. I really,
Speaker 1: I really love doing it.
Speaker 2: You love the process of of making films like that
Speaker 2: absolutely right down to like you know, like the last
Speaker 2: one I made, I thought I was through the woods
Speaker 2: on the nerves and everything.
Speaker 1: Because when you write something, everything, anything is possible, and
Speaker 1: then it comes down to the ground and you're like,
Speaker 1: I can't do this or it just doesn't come out.
Speaker 1: Like you picture a couple of days of puked before
Speaker 1: we really yeah, before I went in just the dry heat,
Speaker 1: drink coffee. Yeah, you know I do yeah, puke like that,
Speaker 1: and then still go in. Yeah it's good man, I
Speaker 1: love it good well. And then also like you know,
Speaker 1: like I'm very serious about it, because I think anybody
Speaker 1: who's not serious about it would make one film maybe,
Speaker 1: And you figure out whether or not it's a passion
Speaker 1: of yours.
Speaker 2: It's it's basically like the way I like to build motorcycles,
Speaker 2: you like.
Speaker 1: To make movies. Yep, that's good. Scratches the itch. I
Speaker 1: get that. Scratches the itch. Yeah, yeah. It makes you
Speaker 1: feel like you belong here, right, Otherwise I don't feel
Speaker 1: like I belong here. Really it's a good creative out
Speaker 1: pie for you. Yes, very much. It's great and hopefully
Speaker 1: I make a good yeah for sure.
Speaker 2: Well that's you know, the end game is, you're always
Speaker 2: looking to get better, right yep. Okay, well listen, give
Speaker 2: Mikey money. He needs money.
Speaker 1: My production needs your money.
Speaker 2: Yeah, production needs money to fulfill his vision for vision,
Speaker 2: this vision for this movie. I think it's gonna be good.
Speaker 2: I'm gonna throw a few bucks at you just so.
Speaker 1: You know, thank you. I'm not gonna we appreciate, but
Speaker 1: I'm gonna throw some money in this direction. Okay, the
Speaker 1: you know what the thing is, I thought about this
Speaker 1: like the other movies I just made for myself, right yeah,
Speaker 1: and that's good, you know, And that feels great where
Speaker 1: you're going. But now if you have crowdfunding, you're beholden
Speaker 1: to the studio.
Speaker 2: I think that might shape a little bit the way
Speaker 2: you move forward afterwards. You're gonna feel more responsibility to
Speaker 2: the audience to get it out there in some capacity.
Speaker 1: Yeah, well, i'll tell you. And that's where your first
Speaker 1: your first responsibilities to the audience. I think early on
Speaker 1: you want to be a little self indulgent and everything
Speaker 1: like that but sure, but not right.
Speaker 2: If you're catering to a crowd that's investing in you,
Speaker 2: it changes I think. I don't know if it changed
Speaker 2: your lens, but it sure changes your responsibility and endgame.
Speaker 1: And you've got this is good for you, it's great.
Speaker 2: Is your most of your works are pretty hidden, they're
Speaker 2: pretty yours. You're not you're not sharing them too much.
Speaker 2: They're more Yeah, your film festivals. Oh yeah, but that's
Speaker 2: a closed circuit kind of thing.
Speaker 3: It is.
Speaker 1: It's not the broader audience. But I'd like to reach
Speaker 1: a broader audience. I think this will help. Yeah, why
Speaker 1: don't you tell me.
Speaker 2: A little bit about your like when you'd like to
Speaker 2: start the movie and when you would like to have
Speaker 2: it done by.
Speaker 1: Is there any goals there time frame wise? Well, Kickstarter
Speaker 1: is a thirty day kind of campaign thing. Okay, If
Speaker 1: you don't raise the money by the end, they refund
Speaker 1: it to the people who have.
Speaker 2: Oh so you got to meet you got to meet
Speaker 2: your goal, you or exceed Okay, And I think it
Speaker 2: keeps people, keeps their expectations in a reasonable place, which
Speaker 2: stas for yeah, of course, but you know that's not
Speaker 2: six thousand might as well be gold.
Speaker 1: Yeah.
Speaker 2: Well, I mean, honestly, dude, I think it's way doable.
Speaker 2: And I think if you produce something that people were
Speaker 2: able to support and they enjoyed it and got to
Speaker 2: see it in the end because you had a responsibility
Speaker 2: to show it to them, Yeah, man, I could just
Speaker 2: that could keep building on that.
Speaker 1: Yeah. So if you come through with it, yeah, they'll
Speaker 1: want more. Hopefully I like it. Yeah, So that that's
Speaker 1: another incentive to really push it through. So it's a
Speaker 1: thirty day period. Thirty day period to try and get
Speaker 1: the money. And once you get the money, you know,
Speaker 1: I figure about a month of filming, okay, month and
Speaker 1: a half maybe, and then probably three weeks of editing.
Speaker 1: All right, So four weeks total from start to finish roughly, yep,
Speaker 1: that's reasonable. Yeah, by the by the fall, by the
Speaker 1: fall safely, by September. By September, yep, by December, by December, January,
Speaker 1: January next year, yep. You'll be hearing that. You know,
Speaker 1: we're almost done with the twenty six twenty seven. That's
Speaker 1: good stuff, all right, Listen, I think it's gonna be great.
Speaker 3: Man.
Speaker 2: Let's uh, let's watch the Mikey Bike. I'm real curious
Speaker 2: about this?
Speaker 1: All right? A little you got a little creock in
Speaker 1: your back over this one, trepidacious. Okay, let's go Mike
Speaker 1: on this episode of American Chop. Where who's that guy? There?
Speaker 1: He is? Man? You had some real blondie blondes in
Speaker 1: your hair? Dude, you the Goldilocks going ship fury. This
Speaker 1: is just the open hair. Get the damn thing done,
Speaker 1: blinging loing this episode, That's what I'm talking about. I
Speaker 1: already hate the episode because I hate that fucking asshole.
Speaker 1: Which one, the one with the curly hair, Yeah, the
Speaker 1: youngest son, the one guy picks up and dances the phones.
Speaker 1: He's a He's a fucking idiot. I don't watch it
Speaker 1: because of that. Yeah, he bugs you.
Speaker 4: I know.
Speaker 1: I feel a little.
Speaker 2: I feel like I want to smack myself a little
Speaker 2: with the way my voice sounds.
Speaker 1: Oh no, yeah, a little voice was higher? Right, unless
Speaker 1: the audio was bad before high deaf, I don't know. Maybe,
Speaker 1: so here, let's get into the episode. Maybe then we
Speaker 1: could uh, we'll get into it. See what happens. All right.
Speaker 5: Hey, I don't want to ask the same thing twice
Speaker 5: because the second time I'm gonna use my foot.
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, here's Montgomery, New York. Oh, the walk Hill River.
Speaker 1: Here you go, Michael's first Dandelion campo. Huh oh man.
Speaker 5: You know, basically between the Bike Expo and New Orleans
Speaker 5: and Bike Week in Myrtle.
Speaker 1: Beach, Nocher. Yeah, Fin's got baby Fats.
Speaker 4: Weeks, We've got a little bit behind as far as
Speaker 4: customers bikes go. So we're going to be focusing on uh,
Speaker 4: on those bikes for a little while, because you know,
Speaker 4: this is a business and we got to take care
Speaker 4: of our customers.
Speaker 3: What are you looking for?
Speaker 1: What are you doing?
Speaker 4: Like, shut the hell up. I'd like to learn this stuff.
Speaker 5: I'm trying to concentrate over here, and you're like breathing
Speaker 5: down my neck.
Speaker 4: Beat it.
Speaker 3: I'm in front of you. I'll just help Vin, Go
Speaker 3: help Vinnie, Ben Can I help you? Even?
Speaker 6: Vin sounds about six months now answering phones, ordering parts,
Speaker 6: swip floor. But that's getting kind of boring, to be
Speaker 6: totally honest with you, because I'm somewhat of a creative
Speaker 6: guy myself. So I asked my father if I could
Speaker 6: build a bike that was a lie motif to it,
Speaker 6: and I couldn't believe it.
Speaker 1: He said, yes, hey, hey, Mikey, listen here.
Speaker 3: I am.
Speaker 6: I'm pretty excited about filling this bike hair.
Speaker 1: I know, man, it's it's a really good mop ofir dude,
Speaker 1: clattenum in there, you know, and then it goes, you know,
Speaker 1: kind of grades down. It must have been like a
Speaker 1: little sun bleached. Very nice.
Speaker 2: So what do you think so far on this introduction
Speaker 2: to our past? This show is way better than I remember.
Speaker 1: No, this is cool. It's kind of good. It's interesting.
Speaker 1: It's not freaking me out like I thought it would. No,
Speaker 1: it's it's actually kind of cathartic a little bit. Man.
Speaker 2: I've found I don't watch it much, but when I do,
Speaker 2: I just smile the whole time.
Speaker 1: Well, how long ago was this episode?
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, it was our first season. I think it
Speaker 2: was in the first season, right, Nate's an expert, is it?
Speaker 4: Yeah?
Speaker 2: First season American Choppers. So yeah, like twenty three, twenty two, twenty.
Speaker 1: Two years ago, say two years, twenty two years Yeah,
Speaker 1: that's history now, it's history. Yeah. I don't even like
Speaker 1: remember any of this, and it actually, even though it's
Speaker 1: not in high Yeah, it's a complete So this is
Speaker 1: new to you? Yeah, yeah, I do think it's super
Speaker 1: interesting for us, for us to be able to see ourselves.
Speaker 1: I think very few people have.
Speaker 2: You know, maybe they had like video cameras that they
Speaker 2: used occasionally, but there's not game or something. No one
Speaker 2: has like a professionally done show on their lives for
Speaker 2: over a decade.
Speaker 1: Think about it. Kind of you're yeah, you're on what
Speaker 1: is it you're on? Wax? Kind of right, yeah, your youth.
Speaker 1: We'll be able to see our youth, ourselves in our youth.
Speaker 1: It'll be even more appealing in our fifties and sixties.
Speaker 2: I think so, you know, I mean, I think the
Speaker 2: the more time goes by, the more I appreciate it. Yeah,
Speaker 2: and hopefully time appreciates us. That sounds like an easy
Speaker 2: listening station.
Speaker 4: You know, Mikey, he really doesn't have a bike building background,
Speaker 4: and you know he's got some pretty unusual ideas for
Speaker 4: the bike. He wants to build it. All right.
Speaker 6: I need to fenders, and I want them to look
Speaker 6: like they belong on a like a fifties Catillac.
Speaker 4: You know that might not be a bad I.
Speaker 1: Got whiskey throat there. I was yelling all night at
Speaker 1: the bar.
Speaker 3: And.
Speaker 1: He's smoking cigarettes with their look.
Speaker 5: Like any bike that we've done before, and that's for sure,
Speaker 5: there's a last frame.
Speaker 1: Yeah, dude, we used to have bikes lined up. Look
Speaker 1: at all those frames. That's all the orders they were
Speaker 1: all going out. Man, they had to build all those
Speaker 1: bikes at the time when I told.
Speaker 4: He could build a bike, let me get your pen.
Speaker 5: First, he's got it still help out around the shop.
Speaker 5: And second he's got to work with his brother Paul,
Speaker 5: and those guys have to get the bike done in
Speaker 5: time for the next show.
Speaker 4: Which is in Laconia.
Speaker 1: I can tell you my handwriting hasn't gotten any better
Speaker 1: than me neither. He wants to grab the front.
Speaker 4: Other than that, as far as I'm concerned.
Speaker 1: It's no help to whatever the hell he wants. You know,
Speaker 1: see that stuff that gives you sympathy from the audience,
Speaker 1: It does that.
Speaker 4: What are you doing?
Speaker 1: Oh here comes comedy, Oh here comes comedy. Look at
Speaker 1: these guys, you sons of bitches.
Speaker 2: Hopes and dreams right down that garbage shoot. Of course,
Speaker 2: then he felt bad. Well, look how light and young
Speaker 2: he is. Even if he was like completely trimm he wouldn't.
Speaker 2: He'd be like forty pounds more than that, right, Yeah, yeah, yeah,
Speaker 2: that's funny.
Speaker 3: Man.
Speaker 1: We were all a little bit. Uh. I was actually
Speaker 1: a lot bigger back then. You were way bigger. We
Speaker 1: were still lifting weights or no, it was just heavier. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I was younger. Man. Yeah, yeah, you d beef when
Speaker 1: you get older. I think people do. Some people just
Speaker 1: get huge, giant. Yeah, so I'd rather be on this
Speaker 1: side of the fence, the church lady, little leaner. Oh yeah,
Speaker 1: just get a bigger hammer.
Speaker 4: I love it.
Speaker 5: We didn't even five minutes to work when we're eating breakfast.
Speaker 1: Got any even hangover. I like your glasses there too, mans,
Speaker 1: pretty slick. Those are tortoiseshell. And I worked really hard
Speaker 1: on this. You did, I don't remember, but this is
Speaker 1: your idea sheet. I guess so drawing.
Speaker 4: But you know, down deep, I really think that he
Speaker 4: wants to make a great bike. I don't know if
Speaker 4: I can do this. I really don't, you know, as
Speaker 4: long as he stays committed.
Speaker 1: Deep down, I did not want to build a really
Speaker 1: great bike. No, I don't know. You know, it was
Speaker 1: kind of fun because we were new and we were
Speaker 1: on TV. Right, yeah, we're on TV. We're on frigging TV.
Speaker 1: Man on TV. Man, absolutely look at us on TV. There,
Speaker 1: it's crazy. Look at you, man, you look like your
Speaker 1: factory stamped there. I know, square jewel cheek bones. Come on,
Speaker 1: I don't look at that frigging guy.
Speaker 2: What's but then the voice then I talks doing.
Speaker 1: I feel the same way.
Speaker 2: I actually decided to build a bike, but I'm not
Speaker 2: really sure he knows how much work it really is.
Speaker 3: Do you?
Speaker 1: Did you, Mike? Did I know how much work it
Speaker 1: really was? I did not. I kind of picked up
Speaker 1: on that at the time.
Speaker 2: You know, Mike's always goofing around the shop, and that's
Speaker 2: a lot of fun and everything.
Speaker 3: I tell you, I'm not going to build this bike
Speaker 3: for it.
Speaker 1: You just got your hand.
Speaker 3: But he's really got to do most of the work
Speaker 3: on this.
Speaker 1: Look a look at my acne on my cheek there, dude,
Speaker 1: you know how long is how young I was I
Speaker 1: had acne? How long has been since you had a
Speaker 1: go tea like that one? A long time?
Speaker 2: You used to have that pencilly thing going around here
Speaker 2: and all this thing, and I got no patience for that.
Speaker 2: I don't even like to shave around my beard anymore.
Speaker 1: I feel you there, I was going to do a goateep. Really, yeah,
Speaker 1: I just you had a lot of facial hair last
Speaker 1: time you were here, did I beard? So yeah, I
Speaker 1: just let it go. I let it go and then
Speaker 1: knock it down when it becomes annoying. Feels good when
Speaker 1: you get rid of the beard. Doesn't it just burn burn?
Speaker 1: I have friends with beards, Yeah, they love them. Beard's
Speaker 1: down to here. Yeah, yeah, yeah, a lot of bearded friends.
Speaker 1: I noticed that about you. Cheese all over the beards disgusting.
Speaker 1: I don't know how you can stand it. I don't.
Speaker 2: I don't know how to get it past like like
Speaker 2: a half inch long. That's just curling back in and
Speaker 2: digging back into your skin.
Speaker 1: Itches. Yeah. Oh, it's so irritating, dude, I can't go.
Speaker 1: That's the point in which I gotta go bring and
Speaker 1: I gotta just get it short. That's a I've heard
Speaker 1: beard oil. But oil feels weird to put on your face.
Speaker 1: It does, and you don't.
Speaker 2: I guess it looks nice because it shines it up,
Speaker 2: but I don't, Well, you think it makes it less
Speaker 2: prickly on your face.
Speaker 1: I think people should take their beards and their tattoos
Speaker 1: shove them shit enough. You do have a lot of
Speaker 1: bearded friends, though I do man with nice beards too,
Speaker 1: nice beards, you know. I guess that's the attraction, but
Speaker 1: I can't imagine, especially in the summer. Yeah, like Randazzo,
Speaker 1: is your face sweat? Does a face sweat like that?
Speaker 1: From a beard? Is a beard a thing that like
Speaker 1: like your hair on your head? Yeah, like I think
Speaker 1: before rehab and then rehab, I grew my beard really long.
Speaker 1: I remember that. What did you know, why do you
Speaker 1: get like a beard? Call like in the morning. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah,
Speaker 1: I don't know. It was crazy. You look like David
Speaker 1: Letterman today. Yeah, Letterman's bearded. Huh yeah, he's got like
Speaker 1: a big beard.
Speaker 3: Man.
Speaker 1: Oh sh yeah, why I don't know.
Speaker 2: Apparently he's went out to Wyoming and oh he had
Speaker 2: a change of heart.
Speaker 1: That's good. You know. There we come, Mikey back in.
Speaker 1: We're back in act. There he is hands and pockets.
Speaker 1: I missed that shop shirt. It was a nice shirt,
Speaker 1: that high quality.
Speaker 3: Yeah, the only thing in.
Speaker 6: Each day that goes by I grow a bit more excited.
Speaker 1: Well it seemed excited, Yeah, really excited. Hang over one
Speaker 1: to ten there is probably about a six. Really, Yeah,
Speaker 1: you could function, but you still feel a hairy yeah,
Speaker 1: still a little wobbly on the legs, but you ain't
Speaker 1: gonna give him the zing, you know.
Speaker 3: Oh like independent, many.
Speaker 1: Think that's pills right there.
Speaker 3: Take this one off, all right.
Speaker 1: I don't like independent. You were saying independent tanks, that's
Speaker 1: a company. At the time it was, Yeah, I think
Speaker 1: I shouldn't say anything bad about that kind of not
Speaker 1: even a business anymore. They're not well. I wonder why
Speaker 1: I was handedly buried them, all right. I love that
Speaker 1: early background music, you know, and you know that yeah,
Speaker 1: can music seems to be a cheap, free canned music,
Speaker 1: you know, like they didn't have enough budget. But even
Speaker 1: this this was composed, there were composers doing this now
Speaker 1: they I think feed it through AI and even the
Speaker 1: early sound of the show though, it's pretty good.
Speaker 3: Man.
Speaker 1: Hell yeah, the cheese guitar and all. Have fun.
Speaker 4: With this project.
Speaker 1: Man, I'm talking about you. That's horrible.
Speaker 2: And you sound froggy, man, I do sound It's ridiculous.
Speaker 1: Boy. I am right under the bus right now.
Speaker 2: I can feel the wheels just crushing my bones.
Speaker 1: See, I'm trying to put these triple trees on. Ye,
Speaker 1: I'm getting I think that was warranted though, because you
Speaker 1: were probably busy on the other end of the shop
Speaker 1: actually building. Yeah, I was warranted on my art.
Speaker 4: You know, he's already going to change the tank.
Speaker 1: That's when we used to use phones, real phonestle Oh yeah,
Speaker 1: what do you stand up to your older brother, you
Speaker 1: little jerk. I'm scared of those. I'm so disgusted. I'm like,
Speaker 1: do you know that I am a premiere bike builder?
Speaker 3: Off the frame, both of them on there, just like that.
Speaker 1: There you can go. Even this this is like a
Speaker 1: shitty's easy top tune, but it's still like, you know,
Speaker 1: mixes up nice a piece, a lot of little tiny
Speaker 1: lecture guitar cheese, guitar man all the way, and it
Speaker 1: goes really good with the grinding sounds and the sound
Speaker 1: of like welding sparks. You're right that I'm fond of.
Speaker 1: I didn't like it originally, you know, because you gotta
Speaker 1: remember this was cutting edge PS. Is this HD yet
Speaker 1: or no?
Speaker 2: This is way before HD. I remember we went upfronts
Speaker 2: and talked about HD. So how you're feeling about the
Speaker 2: Mikey project so far?
Speaker 3: Really?
Speaker 1: I'm really into it actually, because I don't remember much
Speaker 1: of this at all, isn't it great. Yeah, it's it's
Speaker 1: actually very good. It's weird. I talk to people who
Speaker 1: are watching the show now. It is nice to see
Speaker 1: yourself when you're young. It is because it doesn't feel
Speaker 1: like it was that long ago, but it was that.
Speaker 1: It doesn't even matter that you were drunk on the
Speaker 1: set every day, you see what I mean. It doesn't
Speaker 1: overrides the point. Okay, various types of pills. No, seriously, though,
Speaker 1: no matter what was going on, dude, how do you
Speaker 1: get back there?
Speaker 2: How do you get back in time? We're kind of
Speaker 2: gone back in time just now.
Speaker 3: I don't know.
Speaker 1: I always ask myself that.
Speaker 3: All.
Speaker 1: I love it because I'd like you.
Speaker 3: I love it all.
Speaker 1: I love the way Dad looks. Dad's nice and young.
Speaker 1: I think I take a time machine and talk to mikey,
Speaker 1: I know, and just just shake them yeah, like red
Speaker 1: and oh yeah yeah you want who back there? You
Speaker 1: want to talk? Yeah? Talk them out of yeah yeah,
Speaker 1: doing American Chopper and drinking heavier. I like it. I
Speaker 1: think it's good.
Speaker 3: Man.
Speaker 1: I've watched again. I watched the.
Speaker 2: First half of The Black Widow. It's like the most
Speaker 2: I've watched of anything. And this goes back oh, probably
Speaker 2: even a couple of years now, and anytime I do it,
Speaker 2: I start over again and I get like halfway through
Speaker 2: the first episode, and I just don't watch it again.
Speaker 2: But I enjoy it the entire time. You do, Yeah,
Speaker 2: because I see it the way we interact together.
Speaker 1: Not really, he's not. He has no interest at all.
Speaker 4: None.
Speaker 1: He's unimpressed by it all. I think maybe, I think
Speaker 1: maybe down the road he'll appreciate it because it's a
Speaker 1: process show where you build things. He's creative. I think
Speaker 1: he would like that. But you'd have to do a
Speaker 1: Minecraft bike for him to be I think so if
Speaker 1: I did a Minecraft bike, that would be it. Man,
Speaker 1: I'd be like the Hero of the Earth, maybe mister
Speaker 1: cool right, Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
Speaker 2: We just watched the Minecraft movie the other day. You
Speaker 2: see it, Jack black Man, the Man.
Speaker 1: He was great. La La la Lava Chicken. It's very
Speaker 1: good because he's is it animated or is it actually
Speaker 1: he writes and sings a jingle in the movie about
Speaker 1: these lava chickens. So the lava hits the chicken and
Speaker 1: then they're eating like chicken. You know, Okay, Yeah, it
Speaker 1: is spectacular and it gets in your head in such
Speaker 1: a crazy way man, and you can't stop singing it.
Speaker 1: Can we hear that? Can we put that in here?
Speaker 1: I could put it right here. Lava chicken. Oh dude,
Speaker 1: I'm telling you, lava chicken. It's Steve's lava chicken. And
Speaker 1: Steve's the first character of uh Minecraft Minecraft. I got
Speaker 1: that because I've watched oh yeah, yeah, and something about
Speaker 1: the chickens. Like you kill any animal in there, it
Speaker 1: turns into food, right, just sits there and spins a
Speaker 1: little bit. Oh here, I'll just put it right up
Speaker 1: to the microphone.
Speaker 2: Okay, okay, Now, keep in mind, dude, jack Black is
Speaker 2: the man, he really is.
Speaker 1: Keep that in mind. And he's a great he's a
Speaker 1: great jingler. He's a jingle dingle. Would you call him
Speaker 1: the jingle bear. He's a musician.
Speaker 2: Called him a jingle bear because now he's got like this,
Speaker 2: he looks like a jingle bear.
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, oh, just hit play.
Speaker 7: You don't wonder what happens when you mix hot lava
Speaker 7: and chicken. I did, and you're about to find out.
Speaker 7: Ye hear that, that's a sound.
Speaker 8: Smell spell.
Speaker 1: Nice, all right, Jackson. You've got to hear that like
Speaker 1: five times and it'll be burned into your brain. That's fantastic.
Speaker 1: The movie was good. He saved the movie in my opinion.
Speaker 1: Otherwise it's kind of dry. I think for being a
Speaker 1: trillion dollar movie, I think it could have been. I
Speaker 1: think maybe I do, man, And you know, I don't
Speaker 1: know that whole I mean I know enough about uh,
Speaker 1: that whole background of all the information and stuff. They
Speaker 1: did a good job covering. Think of it.
Speaker 2: He loves everything minecraft, so I think he would like it.
Speaker 2: You know, I've gone and seen movies with him that were.
Speaker 1: Terrible that he liked. But you know, it's kids stuff.
Speaker 1: That's yeah, they're not they're not critiquing it from an
Speaker 1: adult position. They're just you know, they like what they like.
Speaker 1: That's pretty much it. Yeah, like when we were kids,
Speaker 1: we like that. Not that it's not awesome anyways. But Rambo, Yeah,
Speaker 1: Rambo is awesome though. But yeah, there were certain things,
Speaker 1: uh you know, oh what was that with Chappie?
Speaker 4: You know, like movies and.
Speaker 1: Film Yeah, yeah, yeah, those are those are all period flicks. Yeah,
Speaker 1: but we thought they were like they were, they were
Speaker 1: the best, but not anymore. No, you can't watch any
Speaker 1: of that stuff, dude, I watch that's part of the
Speaker 1: terrible act. But it's only for the nostalgic kind of
Speaker 1: of it, you know what I mean, Like not because
Speaker 1: I think it's awesome, you know, West Kids.
Speaker 2: I think like the Breakfast Club holds up. I like that,
Speaker 2: that whole vibe is creative and good, like you can
Speaker 2: watch that anytime.
Speaker 3: You know.
Speaker 1: It's a little dated, but it's it's not like, oh
Speaker 1: I can't watch this, you know. Yeah, it's good. That's
Speaker 1: a good quality. That director is something else.
Speaker 2: Yeah, like Enemy Mind remember that with Lou Gossip Junior.
Speaker 2: Enemy Mind member it was a wild thing on another planet,
Speaker 2: like a really cool movie guy. And then another one
Speaker 2: hatches out of the end that the dude has ends
Speaker 2: up having like some kind of alien baby or something
Speaker 2: like that, and he dies from it.
Speaker 1: I think that's right. Yeah, who's in it? Lou Gossip Junior?
Speaker 1: Did I make that up? Lou Gossip? Lou Gossip? There
Speaker 1: you go? Was it him or was it maybe mine?
Speaker 1: Help us out on that because I'm always wrong.
Speaker 2: And then the podcast completely dumb Dennis Quaid, Yeah, I
Speaker 2: think louis Gossip. Yes, okay, good, it's all coming back.
Speaker 2: I don't know where that came from, but in my mind.
Speaker 2: I just saw that scene, the birthing scene.
Speaker 1: Yes, is this weird stuff where he loses like his
Speaker 1: arms and legs right and he gets deep at like
Speaker 1: I don't know, I don't think so it's a different movie.
Speaker 1: We're back.
Speaker 3: Sorry, business around here.

Speaker 1: see that your hair is still wet.

Speaker 1: I should go back to moose. Man, it's quite a
Speaker 1: wave in that thing. That main. Here's your handlebars that

Speaker 1: What do you say? Screw that? I got better things
Speaker 1: to do. Just gotta be persistent. He's so busy. I know,
Speaker 1: I know he knows. Vince still sounds the same to me.
Speaker 4: Switch that was me. I'd take a hatchet and smash
Speaker 4: that tank to live in.
Speaker 1: Hat you think I should, great man, give me the hatchet.
Speaker 1: That's a cool act I wish we had. Still I
Speaker 1: wasn't even paying attention and break his heart.

Speaker 1: axe ad ventage. He just stuck it in his leg.
Speaker 1: All right, So we're putting it together. We got high
Speaker 1: tech DAVINCHI in the bag.
Speaker 3: Man.
Speaker 1: We're in full full fab mode right here.
Speaker 7: Man.
Speaker 1: Oil tanks going in right because this was it.
Speaker 2: You did the tank, the oil tank, front and rear wheel,
Speaker 2: get the front end on, get the motor and.
Speaker 1: Trans in, and then start to build ye, shake off
Speaker 1: all the flies, the right tools here. You're good? What
Speaker 1: a jerk? I mean on the ground. This is fucking dumb,
Speaker 1: No way, man, this is as good as it gets, bro.
Speaker 1: People love this project. Yeah kidding me? Man, two brothers
Speaker 1: building a bike the American Dream beat it.
Speaker 6: You're the man, first class.
Speaker 1: Get the fuck away from me. He's like, I got
Speaker 1: work to do. No, You and Vin were always good together,
Speaker 1: very good. Yeah, Evin's great.
Speaker 3: Man.
Speaker 1: You and him, though, had a good relationship, different than
Speaker 1: me and him. I'd say you guys had a different dynamic,
Speaker 1: you know, we did. What the hell are you doing?
Speaker 4: I have been.
Speaker 1: Very good, man. I feel like you're not really appreciating me,
Speaker 1: not at all.
Speaker 4: Man.
Speaker 1: That's like a condescending tone. Geez, so wondering about Sorry
Speaker 1: about that, talk about it later and bothered me for years,
Speaker 1: full and.
Speaker 3: An elongated look pay for first, Mike.
Speaker 1: Man, I wonder if I should bring that little beard
Speaker 1: back that I have with the little chin strap going on.
Speaker 1: It's pretty cool. It is pretty cool. Actually a lot
Speaker 1: of neck hair there. That's there. We go is such
Speaker 1: a good idea. I'm so glad you listened to me,
Speaker 1: all right, want it?
Speaker 3: Cut it?
Speaker 1: All right, here, scribe it and cut it. What is
Speaker 1: that piece like an add on piece I think to
Speaker 1: the tank. Yeah, because we were trying to like stretch
Speaker 1: out the tank aesthetically.
Speaker 3: Look at that.
Speaker 1: You're out there in the steel shop, bro man, there's
Speaker 1: the sheer right, hours and hours working on that thing.
Speaker 1: The hind that was kind of industrial. There you go.
Speaker 1: That was a great piece of equipment right there. That's
Speaker 1: the old steel shop. I spent many years in that shot. Mike,
Speaker 1: eye beams coming at you from every direction. Yeah, okay,
Speaker 1: you're going to burn me. I just got a sense
Speaker 1: about it. Get one right here then, okay, Sam, Oh
Speaker 1: we added these to the frame. That's interesting. Instead of
Speaker 1: the oil tank bandana had like cooling head beads in it.
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, cooling beads inside of the head.
Speaker 4: About something for a change, because and you know what,
Speaker 4: it's nice to see getting involved with his brother.
Speaker 1: That's such a good older brother. Your little hair like
Speaker 1: Willie Nilson there, you know, I like it, or like
Speaker 1: you know someone who played who played at Woodstocke. Yeah,
Speaker 1: good for him.
Speaker 4: As long as he doesn't pick up Paulie's work happens.
Speaker 1: Mmmm, I got that would be terrible.
Speaker 4: I mean, let's get to work. Let's get to work.
Speaker 1: That's when I was happy to get free t shirts.
Speaker 1: Yeah or backhand once in a while you felt like
Speaker 1: you had it coming right. I still do.
Speaker 6: And it's like I spend half my time waiting for
Speaker 6: my brother Paul.
Speaker 1: With that echo. It sounds like it's the voice inside
Speaker 1: your brain in a film. Yeah, yeah, something else.
Speaker 4: You can put a tire on.
Speaker 3: I'm waiting for the finished setting.
Speaker 1: Nowhere do you see how my hair is fraying.
Speaker 3: Here's possible I'll grab Vinnie or someone.
Speaker 6: I know this project isn't exactly that.
Speaker 2: I'm starting to really I never knew this about you
Speaker 2: might and I think I was PMS in that day.
Speaker 2: What throw me under the bus all the time?
Speaker 1: Bro? You know, I remember I was trying to knock you,
Speaker 1: knock you down and knock you man. And Michael, you
Speaker 1: were like Freido to me back then. I was, I was,
Speaker 1: And thanks for treating me like that mot not like
Speaker 1: everybody says, yeah I'm smart, not like let's just do it.
Speaker 1: I love all the early swag too, just simple white
Speaker 1: shirt logo, you know. Yeah, And that wound up being
Speaker 1: the nicest one I think I think that was our stand.
Speaker 1: That was our starter. We did that in black, and
Speaker 1: we did it in white. Yeah, don't think it's a
Speaker 1: T shirt designed since And that was like I had
Speaker 1: a different idea and the guy drew it.
Speaker 2: It was a little darker than I wanted, like like
Speaker 2: it was a little like more evilly looking, but we
Speaker 2: went with it.
Speaker 3: Man.
Speaker 1: We went to town and that became our staple T shirt.
Speaker 1: That was O G T shirt. Oh yeah, logo looked good,
Speaker 1: looked a little bit.
Speaker 2: More bunny rabbit back then later on we stretched it out. Okay,
Speaker 2: the logo's a little tall if you notice it on
Speaker 2: my shirt.
Speaker 1: Okay, the sec we refined it over time.
Speaker 2: Yeah yeah, yeah, I just squinched it down and it
Speaker 2: became more linear and looked a little faster as opposed
Speaker 2: to like a bunny because you're.
Speaker 6: Actually creating something with your own hands and you really
Speaker 6: can't beat that.
Speaker 1: Yeah. A lot of Fire Department T shirts we wore
Speaker 1: back then, and this is so early. It was really
Speaker 1: just nice to get pre T shirts too.
Speaker 3: Flip it over.
Speaker 2: Yeah, the front ends always tricky, right, It's like that
Speaker 2: them legs never wanted to go in right, not one
Speaker 2: time any of them ever.
Speaker 1: Was it the manufacturer's just the way it is. I
Speaker 1: don't know. It's probably us.
Speaker 3: Basically at this point, you look good on.
Speaker 1: That for never riding a motorcycle.
Speaker 3: Sure, sure, we'll just start working on it again. All right,
Speaker 3: let's you want to strap this thing?
Speaker 1: No, it's fine, Mike, all right, I bet you falls
Speaker 1: off the lift. Those were okay, try dodge man. That's
Speaker 1: how I used to get around. That's even weirder to
Speaker 1: see that in shape because that lasted for a long time.
Speaker 1: It did. It got passed down through the generations.
Speaker 4: Destroying or something.
Speaker 9: You know.
Speaker 1: Some shooting.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I've been up there since. We were up there
Speaker 2: for Chris is Rachel's brothers bachelor party. We went there
Speaker 2: all the way up there. Yeah, they were heading up
Speaker 2: to Canada after that. Okay, that's a premiere venue. Yeah,
Speaker 2: that guy Peter Wicker there taught me how to shoot. Yeah,
Speaker 2: he's a good guy.
Speaker 1: He's good. Right there we go, there's Peter Wicker dead. Pair.
Speaker 1: You shot the wooden thing? What's say there? I'm sure
Speaker 1: Robert Twestley and that's where Kristen went to college. Yeah, damn,
Speaker 1: quite a bit of aggression. Oh there you go.
Speaker 3: Did you ever leave?
Speaker 1: You did that for a while, didn't you wallowed aggression?
Speaker 1: He's still doing it, yes, here and there.
Speaker 3: No, the shooting thing.
Speaker 1: You did that for a hot minute. Didn't you get
Speaker 1: better and better? I got better and better. Now I'm
Speaker 1: just a wringer that people allow charity tournaments every now
Speaker 1: and again. You had, you had a real inclination for it. Yeah,
Speaker 1: you had a feel for it.
Speaker 4: Yeah.
Speaker 1: When I'm older, like in my sixties or something, I'll
Speaker 1: probably try to get them back into it. Yeah, yeah, yeah,
Speaker 1: I think so. It seems like something nice to do
Speaker 1: until your shoulders completely shot and being old.
Speaker 3: If the fenders are downstairs.
Speaker 1: If the fenders are downstairs, go do my light work, Sanfredo.
Speaker 1: Fredo will run the restaurant. Go do my light work.
Speaker 4: Mike.
Speaker 1: It's not the way I want. I'm smart. I was
Speaker 1: passed over. He's sitting in a chair like this when
Speaker 1: he delivers in Oh yeah, Milwaukee Iron You remember them, dudes? Yeah, man,
Speaker 1: they were in it for a minute. They were and
Speaker 1: a bunch of really entertaining fellows. That fin is way
Speaker 1: too big. Yeah, you know.
Speaker 2: This was in the day where some of the theme
Speaker 2: stuff got a little in the weeds, a little clunky,
Speaker 2: don't get me wrong. For the project, it wasn't terrible
Speaker 2: because it was kind.
Speaker 1: Of meant to be like that. But yeah, man, well,
Speaker 1: I mean it's a Mikey bike, you know, let's face
Speaker 1: not a bike though. There you go, this heads forth,
Speaker 1: the jazz Mikey bike. Yeah, the jerk off the jerk
Speaker 1: bike turn bike.

Speaker 1: That was like premeditated. That was malicious. Look over here,

Speaker 1: I think that was sarcasm, but I need this opinion.
Speaker 1: I'm sorry zoned for a second. I was thinking about
Speaker 1: our cousins that you look like.
Speaker 2: So I fabricated two V shaped pieces that will extend
Speaker 2: from the frame up to the strut mounts. This is
Speaker 2: before the water jet, right here, man, We used to
Speaker 2: actually have to cut stuff out like that, or we
Speaker 2: might have had a little water jet at the time.
Speaker 1: I think the water jet really changed the game, right
Speaker 1: as far as that could change the whole game for me.
Speaker 2: Yeah, they sped everything up. You're able to build a
Speaker 2: lot more, do a lot more, build cooler stuff.
Speaker 3: All right, Mikey, let's get this front fender on.
Speaker 2: You can tell it to pick up because I say,
Speaker 2: all right, Mikey. You know I'm not saying Mikey that much. Yeah,
Speaker 2: I would just say, all right, let's get this fender on.
Speaker 1: You know what I mean? Ye?
Speaker 3: Great? If right, freaking with.
Speaker 1: The pickups. For people who don't know, every now and
Speaker 1: again a sentence or a word is missing and we
Speaker 1: have to go back and tell the story, and it's usually, hey, Mikey,
Speaker 1: let's put this fender on. Yeah, I'll be there when
Speaker 1: I want to dad stuff like that inside there you go,
Speaker 1: just jump on it. Oh, I think when they rolled it,
Speaker 1: when they welded it, it's splayed out. Maybe there's a
Speaker 1: lot more weld with that pipe on the on the
Speaker 1: top of Yeah, there was a scene down the middle.
Speaker 1: I believe that that that little mohawk on there is
Speaker 1: all welded. Okay, so it's too much heat to that.

Speaker 1: it's easy, man, It's easier. And you think, yeah, you know,
Speaker 1: I I think for ten years after the show, I
Speaker 1: couldn't watch it. Yeah, but you know, we were all
Speaker 1: burnt out then, and.
Speaker 2: I think we could watch a bunch of different ones
Speaker 2: for different situations, especially with like the one with Bill Murray,
Speaker 2: like ones that are just amazing when you think about
Speaker 2: having these guys on your show, hanging out, interacting, golfing,
Speaker 2: you know all that stuff.
Speaker 1: So yeah, and a lot of that comes back that
Speaker 1: I don't remember anyways. Yeah, right, that's the thing.
