Speaker 1: On location and driven by or Dots Gee Brown. It's Billified,
The Bill Moran Podcast What I Gotta Turn Nothing Out?
Hello and welcome from Multconnery's Irish Pub seventeen lift Bridge Lane,
seventeen years and a lot of dignitaries in the house tonight.
A lot of east Side in the house too. It's
it's sweater puppy season. What is listen to you? Why
do you say? What? What's it? No? No, no, I'm
not saying that. I'm not saying you can't look at it.
Speaker 2: You're not.
Speaker 1: No, and I don't mean that at all close. But
why why do you say east Side is the west Side?
I don't know. You know, I love our friend Matt.
There's some good looking people at b TV. There's certainly
you don't You don't see the you don't see this
at BTV. Oh yeah, you're not gonna see some of
the shoes that I'm looking at. No, no, you're not
gonna see that. I get that. They don't even left
those across the river. That's so funny. I'm surprised to
let you crusher for watching you over there dropping fries
him like it's a fucking frosty. What are you talking.
Speaker 2: You're talking.
Speaker 1: Actual epitome of alcoholism, right, added a little salt. Yeah,
there's definitely east Side right in front of me. That's
so funny. Yeah, what I'm just saying, I'm agreeing with you.
Yeah it's true. But Uh, Jumbo Shrimp is gonna play,
and I'm gonna try to get Tom Uh Tom will it.
I think I hoping to get the last name right,
but Tom from Jumble Shrimp. I'd love to get him on.
Tyler Norton from the m eighties lead singer, he also
the solo stuff. We're trying to get him to come in. Uh.
We've even got you know, the Hoochin Nannies coming up. Yeah,
the Fairport Music Festival were down. I think fair Work
Music has people. But the U the Hucinani that's coming up.
I'm going to try to get some of those guys
on Tommy Burnette's band. I believe he's playing. It would
be fun to get Tommy on talk a little bit. Yeah,
I don't know, because he's turned me down already. Damien,
he goes Jesus Christ. I want to just have a party.
I don't want to work. He's going to be out
of here in thirty five minutes. No, he'll stay, he'll
stay for this, but so we'll see. We would love
to get him on Tom O'Callahan from what Callahan's is
on uh is around and he solo Callahan's. But it
would be fun to talk to him about owning a
bar and all the things that go with owning a bar.
It's a lot, yeah, I mean, it's just a lot.
And to have a place like this, I will say that,
you know how many people I've always heard that the
a lot of guys want to own a bar like
that would be the dream of a lot of guys.
I never did want to own a bar, so that
dream never connected with me. I have to quit drinking, yeah,
I think so. And I think that's like the biggest
problem for a lot of eyes is that they just
they just get too involved in the bar shenanigans. And
then there's other things like you drink, you start to
your inhibitions go down, you make some bad decisions the
next thing, you know. I mean, this is why like
a lot of bar owners probably your single and stuff.
And I think that Damien has done an amazing job
of navigating a lot of all of that and being
able to stay open because many guys end up driving
their stuff. Is this from NFL. I'm teasing you driving
driving the stuff in, you know, right into the ground
it and it's hard. I couldn't imagine. I don't know why.
It just never really appealed to me. And you got
to set rules with yourself, and you gotta follow the
strict You gotta be like listen, either you don't drink
at all, They don't drink at the bar. Yeah, but
maybe on special occasions like Super Bowl maybe, but you
gotta follow. You gotta be strict with the song. Yeah,
And I'm you have zero opportunity to do that. I
don't think I have that ability. You don't, I know
you don't. I mean I have that ability in the
world I live in. But if I had no seriously,
I have that ability.
Speaker 2: You don't choose.
Speaker 1: You see me every day practically, or you know, most days.
I don't drink. Last night was the first Guinness I've had.
Did you even taste it? It was like you're eating
a BTV burger over there? I did, exactly, Well, taste
is so good. I was gonna say, it's the first
like drink I've had my brother bought I pas. I
drank three of a four pack for an entire weekend.
I've been in trouble a lot lately, just not just drinking.
I yeah, I found myself. It's me and the neighbors.
We just yeah, I can't have just one or two
because I just I love drinking. We're shooting the ship,
we're having fun and it feels good, and all of
a sudden, shots show up and it's it's the end
of the night, and I'm for me. There's a slippery
slope and if I hit that slope, And I've known
that since I was in college, and there were some
nights where I went, oh, man, that I could feel it, Oh,
this is gonna be a good night. Or sometimes I
could feel like, oh, I better stop because it's not
gonna be a good night. I know where the line is,
but I just don't adhere to the line. Oh the
other times I drink, I've drunk way past the line,
and then I've done full circle where I've come back
to the line and kept drinking. I've gotten text from
wives around the neighborhood. What did you do to my husband? Oh? God?
And you always worry like what is the lawn term
my fault. He can't say, no, what's the long term
effects on that stuff? Like they're telling you all these
things that ever damage terrible for booze and stuff, and
then you look at people who go who live to
one hundred hundred and one. I have a shot and
a cigarette, and I think it's you know, actually shot
and a cigarette is one thing. Seven shots and a
pack of darts. It's a whole nother thing. That's true
because I was just telling somebody the other day that
my grandparents had neighbors and he died at forty two.
Smoking and drinking. Put them on, you know, put them under.
And when we drink, we're doing shots. We're doing we're
doing billy bombs. So we're putting two shots in there.
We're not doing a half one and a half. Well,
we're doing a full shot in the beer and that
a full shot dropper. Yeah, so we're doing two plus
a half a beer. So we're really just tearing into it.
A couple of things that I've heard about today. I
don't know where we are. I have not been affected
by this, but around the area that we do the podcast,
there's been internet outages and then people are saying that,
but there's no like down detector that's announcing this. And
then some companies that have been completely offline. But I
only know that privately. Now, this guy I've been trying
to get on the podcast for fucking ever. He's a
writer and he wrote for Family Guy Danny would fucking
love it, and he's working on a couple of big projects.
He flies out from here in La. Do we want
to grab? No, he won't come on. I've talked to him.
John is a great guy and I am friendly with John.
And he said, I'm gonna make you. I said, this
microphone as I walked past him, has your name on it.
And he goes, I'm not talking to you. I'm talking
about you. I'm talking about you not coming on the
goddamn podcasts. He's making you wait for it. He's making
you work. He wants two dinners. So he sold like
he sold a movie recently and then was very upset
with what they did with it. And then he that's
gotta be the worst for like authors and stuff like
that that well haven't turns into a movie. Yeah, and
you've got your vision of what it is, and then
you've got Steven Soderheim's visions. You got it and it's
completely different. And you think he fucked up. He thought
they fucked up all the jokes and shit. He's extremely funny,
like one of the most naturally funny guys I've ever known,
but never I don't think he's ever done stand up
or anything, but god damn is he funny. And he
did write for Family Guy for a while, and he's
working on some other projects and and I've been very
excited to try to get him on the pike. I know,
I know, I'm not bothering you. I swear to God,
I'm not bothering you. He's just blow you right now.
It's just blowing it.
Speaker 2: I'm just I'm.
Speaker 1: Bragging about you, is what I'm doing. Bragging about you. Yes,
he's uh, but I mean, and he's fun to hang
out with. Like there are times where, honest to god, dude,
he is one of those. It's it's a funny that
I like where it's not the obvious joke, it's sort
of slightly above that is funnier than me. Uh, you
could say you could be these guys if you lost
one hundred and there's nothing to do with the weight
at all, if you were able to do it every
day and flex that muscle. I'll tell you this I
and this is gonna sound patronizing, but since we've started
the podcast till now, you are way funnier, only because
I think you get more reps at it, like you're time.
Not that you're way funnier, but your timing's better. You
land them better. I mean, come on, dude, we fell
out of our fucking chairs the other day, like you
know what I'm saying. So I yes, I think you've
always had that. It's just a matter of with anything
in life, it's reps. You just got to do it
over and over. And I think since you've done the podcast,
I can't say that you've gotten funnier because that that
almost seems shitty to say because you always had it.
But your timing and your momentum and you're you're it's
just there. It's better. Okay, you can go back to John.
I finished. Uh huh. There are so many things I
want to say right now about some people in the room,
but I really really can't.
Speaker 2: Oh, I can't. John.
Speaker 1: It's just you and me. Uh you know what, it is?
Just you and me right now? And maybe I should.
There was and John if he wants to sit down now,
John's I gotta sit down. He's not sitting down with us.
He will not sit down, and he will not do it.
It's my birthday job. No, no, it's I had him
shut up. He doesn't know one to shut up? How
are you? There's so many things like I really would
like to say right now, right in front of you,
right there, okay, oh yeah. Once said to me recently,
you are so young. Well she's not wrong, thank you,
And I said, uh oh, and she's like, get that bitch.
She goes, she goes, you and I should get to
know each other. And I go said, I'm pretty sure
you have a husband or something. She goes, no, I
said my boyfriend. She goes, oh, well yeah, And I'm like,
you know, I'm not no, I'm not fucking I'm not
doing that. And she's like, well, I'm just saying. I
mean I live by myself and I have my own
house and a blah blah blah blah blah blah blah
blah blahlah. Then I heard about all the guns as
he has the house.
Speaker 3: He goes tuet shooting and I go it was holy
fucking shit, this is going to turn into misery. It
was big, big boner boy, there was no boner And
though I should get Brandon up here, because Brandon was
sitting with me, and she said it out loud like
people would hear it.
Speaker 1: And he turns to me and goes, if you don't
do this, I'm gonna fucking kill you. And he goes,
I wanted to see what that body looks like thinking,
And I go, no, no, absolutely not.
Speaker 4: No.
Speaker 1: Sometimes you just got to take a bullet for the show,
you know, Kevin, we got to right your stand up material,
so you gotta start experiencing. I have schools one experience,
but you can all you need more than one. No, no, no,
I understand. I I have so many things. If you
get your deckway, you get your deck way. I have
so many things going on in my life right now
that are like just it's it's the crazy, I have
to say. Most people around my age, Yeah, you're starting
to wind down. Two kids out of college. You're pretty good, right,
you got one left? No big deal. My shit is
not winding down, it's just ramping up. How are you
going to be successful with that attitude? Come on, well,
that's the thing is like, now I'm going more than ever.
I got to put the foot on the gas and
I'm going to be doing I've had more meetings on
things the radio dazed. Things could be moving forward. We
got some stuff which front of the gas. Put the
hammer down and that's it. Drop that hammer baby. Speaking
of school, I did have a I was helping a
first grader learn to read today and senior read. That's
probably a good idea. He was out. No, they had
they had these sentences and then they have two words
to choose from that would fit in the sentence, like
Beth had a brain last night or Beth had a
dream last night. So this one kid, he got it
right away. But he's laughing and he goes, ah brain,
and then you know, he's just being funny, and I'm
I go, no man, And all of a sudden he
leans across the table and licks my face and laughs
to the point where he thought I practically fell out
of his chair, and I go, you can't, you can't
make this stuff up. Was there a doll, pa canola
or some leftover lunch on your cheekers? It's nothing.
Speaker 2: It was absolutely nothing.

Speaker 5: Today, Blank Canada.
Speaker 1: Maybe less gets more Animarill is a fish now great again?
Five that's right, seventeenth anniversary And Tyler Norton from the eighties.
But Tyler you also. I've seen Tyler solo here at
Mount Connery's Jump get on the bar and start walking
down the bar. It's amazing, better than kyote Ugly because
he's playing and singing like.
Speaker 6: I don't think I've spilled a drink yet never. I
don't think kicked yet. No, I don't think just punted
one across the bar. I don't think so at all.
That's pretty impressive overall.
Speaker 5: I aim to please, you know.
Speaker 6: I try it at home actually, you know, when nobody's
asleep and everybody's asleep, and I go up and I
get up my kitchen island and I put all the
drinks out there and kind of like tiptoe du little hopscotch,
you know, because I got to be on my game
when I'm doing this stuff.
Speaker 1: You know, talk to me about the eighties and how
that whole thing came about, because you guys have become
one of the most sought after. Like if people are
looking to go out and they see the M and
D's or somewhere, you're a draw and it's a fantastic show.
Speaker 2: Thank you.
Speaker 1: I think the one that I really enjoyed maybe the
most was the Fairport Music Fast in the Back because
the screens were so big. Because you play the videos
right of the songs that you're performing on stage. It's
really really well done, well interactive. But like, how does
that whole concept come together?
Speaker 6: So I mean between myself, Jay the bass player, and
Stole the guitar player, we all grew up in the eighties,
you know. I remember one of my first albums was
Judas pre Screaming for Vengeance in nineteen eighty two.
Speaker 5: We're all babies of MTV. That was my babysitter.
Speaker 6: My mom worked three jobs, got home from school, I
turned on and like, oh we have cable.
Speaker 5: Wow, this is great.
Speaker 2: That was like our.
Speaker 1: Escape is exactly, you know.
Speaker 5: And she worked so hard to you know, to have
us to have cable.
Speaker 1: You know.
Speaker 6: So we were didn't have a lot of money, but
cable was such a luxury to us. And then here's
MTV and here's you know, Brian Adams, here's Duran Durant,
here's Pat Benattar, these songs, you know, the bugles, right.
Speaker 1: That was the first was first one, first video, the video.
Speaker 6: Kill the Radio Star, and a few of our shows
we've actually started with that video just to kind of
pay homage to the eighties. So when we play, we
really live, yeah through it. You know, we want to
put on a show and not to not to you know,
throw shade on any other bands or anything like that.
But if you're gonna pay money to watch a show,
you're gonna watch a band play. I want to be entertained.
If I'm gonna pay ten dollars to watch a band
I want to be entertained. I don't want them to
be looking down at their shoes. I don't want them
to be watching the words on an iPad. You know,
there were no iPads in the eighties, right, So it
was all it's all memory, it's all putting on a show,
and that's what we want to.
Speaker 5: Give out to our audience.
Speaker 1: Basically, you know. But then you're doing your own thing,
I do, do you ever? Not? Is there a night
you're not? I mean, I don't know if you're going
to jump on stage at some point tonight or not. Yeah.
Speaker 6: I'll be playing tonight, and a couple other people had
to they've got things going in the morning, they've got
to leave early or whatever.
Speaker 5: But yeah, I'll be playing tonight with my buddy, Jim Kerns.
Speaker 6: I've been playing with him as a two piece for
maybe over twenty five years.
Speaker 1: Holy shit.
Speaker 6: Oh yeah yeah, yeah, before I've had kids anything. We've
gone out. We've gone played down in Florida. We played
in resort places in ever Here, put In Bay, yeah,
Putting Bays in Ohio. It's like maybe forty five minutes
from Sandusky. You've got to take a ferry to get
get to put In Bay. That's how I know put
In Bay. Yeah, I've never been.
Speaker 1: I've only read about us or it knew somebody who
maybe got married on Putting Back.
Speaker 6: Possible, very well, could be possible, but it's it's just
a bunch of bars. We went down there right after
nine nine to eleven, right, so we got down there. Oh,
we took a ferry. Everybody's got golf carts. No cars,
you're getting golf carts. That's how you get around I
Putting Bay. And the only like I guess, entity that
had a name was Dairy Queen, but then he had
all these other bars.
Speaker 5: There's one bar called Tippers.
Speaker 6: We played there seven days in a row and it
was I guess if you look it up on the
website or whatever there's At the time it was the
longest bar in the world, so you know, it kind
of zig zags wow, you know, kind of like a maze.
Speaker 5: But the guy was great.
Speaker 1: There's no like Gridge out of Putting Bay.
Speaker 5: Nothing.
Speaker 1: So all the shit, How expensive is it to live
on Putting Back, I really don't know, like just to
get shipped out to the island.
Speaker 6: So we played exclusively at this place called Tippers, and
the owner of Tippers. I mean, he went all out
put us up. He has like his own like hotel
over there, motel when you want to call it. So
we had rooms, we had food. They just took total
care of us, and all we had to do was
play wow. So when we were down there, right after
nine to eleven, there was a fireman's I can't remember
where they came from, but there was like an engine
right yeah, and they're all just like going crazy. It
was just a free for all. Obviously they weren't working,
so it was it was you know, it was a party. Yeah,
I kind of I'll kind of keep things quiet. There
was stuff going on down there that we're pretty pretty wild, all.
Speaker 1: Right, since we sort of tiptoed into that. You are married, Yes,
how long have you been married? It'll be twenty nine
years in June. Shit, yeah, right, old are you? I'll
be fifty three tomorrow? Okay, so I'm fifty three, all right, okay, yeah,
you can't hear it tomorrow. Happy birthday, Thank you, thank you.
Uh yeah, I know. Twenty nine years. Yeah, I went,
I went here. I went nineteen damn so close. But
twenty nine years is amazing because when you're a lot
of your nights are late and you're you're out and
people see the lead singer of a band, and you
know what I mean. Like, and I gotta tell you,
women are forward, especially in their thirty like if they're thirty.
Speaker 5: When you sat around the corner right he came on area, Yes, I.
Speaker 1: Said, I did, Yes, I did. No, not it, But
I'm just like to do really forward. And I go, Wow,
And it's all your wife's been, not that anything has happened.
I'm just saying, like that's a tough thing. Well, I
my pantry at home is full.
Speaker 6: I go to BJ's and I stuck up on Bendryl
and I just make mealkchicks every night.
Speaker 1: What he's looking to find out? Your wife had to
beat an ass right now?
Speaker 6: She she has been very very supportive of me all
th years. When I first met her back in what
was nineteen ninety four ninety five is.
Speaker 2: When we met.
Speaker 6: We actually met at a party that her father was
having and I was in a band at the time
with her best friend's boyfriend who was the bass player,
and they had a karaoke party. Now, back then, like
I say, ninety four ninety five, they're playing laser discs.
Speaker 5: Yeah, so all the kids at home. This is before Selones.
Speaker 6: This is when people were listening to music on a
laser discs and compact discs.
Speaker 5: Look that up, Google that. And I basically was.
Speaker 6: The only singer for about an hour and a half
because nobody had the balls, so like, they didn't.
Speaker 5: Want to go up and sing someone, I'll sing what
the hell you know? Yeah, And that's where we met
and from then on it was just like boom, yeah,
so you know, oh that's great.
Speaker 1: Did you charge you me going great for the hour
and a half or did you just.
Speaker 5: Say I'm still paying for it?
Speaker 1: Well? I mean because you're also part of the every
I think it's once a month over and I don't
know if you do it elsewhere as well, but at
Iron Smoke they do live band karaoke. But that's you. Yeah,
so it's it your band or no.
Speaker 6: So I was in an original band back in maybe
ninety eight through two thousand called the Meddling Kids Okay,
and it consisted of myself, Brian Eberts, who is now
in Tommy Brunette's band as well as Appetite for Voltage,
and then his brother Billy Eberts, who's in uh well,
actually Brian's also in the eighties band Breakfast Club.

Speaker 1: I'll try to get up there and get that.
Speaker 6: But now, right now, and so myself, Billy Ebers, Brian Eberts,
and a legendary guitar player on the local music scene
named Gary Rose.
Speaker 5: He was in the Skycoasters. Prior to that, he was a.
Speaker 1: Reporter, remember reporter report.
Speaker 5: So he's our guitar player.
Speaker 6: And the first and third Wednesday of every month we
play exclusively live band karaoke at Piners book Is Still
it's a great time.
Speaker 1: I mean it's so well done. You guys are It's phenomenal.

And that's some really talented singers.
Speaker 5: They're really are.
Speaker 1: There are some real shit singers too, yeah twelve me

country song years ago about karaoke singers house you know
was her night out given Star. I don't even remember,

a week that hasn't gone by in the last four
plus years that we've done live band karaoke that someone
has not come up and sang Before He Cheats. Really,
it's that popular of a song.
Speaker 1: Still, Oh yeah, Wow, there's a lot of anger in
there and a lot of somebody's selling the story of
that one. Are your kitch musically in climb?
Speaker 5: So ironically?
Speaker 7: Know?
Speaker 6: So my daughter, she was a cheerleader here in Fairport,
she played softball. Now she's twenty, she'll be twenty four
years old this year. She is actually a coach for
Fairport softball now, so yeah, it's comfort full circle. My
middle son is twenty. He's down Ducaine right now. He
was a baseball player. Now he's really into golf. He's
got an internship with the PGA this summer, seaming down
in Pittsburgh.
Speaker 1: That's awesome.
Speaker 6: So that leads my fourteen year old, who we just
enrolled in modeling classes. I think that's gonna be his niche. Yeah,
but he sings. He doesn't know it, but when he's
in the shower, he sings like an angel. Here's a
perfect pitch. He just sounds amazing. He just does not
have the self confidence right now, yea to go out
in front of people. I'm telling me that he sounds great,
You're a great singer.
Speaker 1: You gotta go do this, And you just need another
fourteen year old girl to tell him no seriously, right right?
And I know that sounds funny and maybe a little
somebody's gonna sadistic. No, it's just a confidence booster for
the kid, because that's how a lot of people with
really you know, hidden talents exactly call it hidden talents
because they just never brought it out. I think that's
that's amazing modeling classes. Who can I may I ask
who does those?
Speaker 5: Absolutely?
Speaker 6: So Mary Terreese Free Yeah, okay, yeah, so Leary was
she was USA what nineteen seventy nine? I believe she was,
and you know she she does. She and her husbands
are stuff. They really do their stuff and they just
they bring out the best of their students. Yeah, you know,
and they're very very much involved with Lollipop Farm, you know,
just advocating for animals, the whole nine yards and they're
just great people.
Speaker 1: Are you booked yourself? I'm just I'm sorry, I I'm
I know, I'm jumping around here, but the are you
booked between your solo stuff, the karaoke stuff and the
eighties and is there any other projects I'm missing? I
think there is?
Speaker 6: Yeah, well I try to exclusively. I mean, m eighties
is a job one. Yeah, sure, they're They're the bread
and butter and we have so much fun doing it.
We just recently played Delago. We almost sold out the Lago.
Speaker 1: No, yeah, congratulation, thank you.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 1: So that's a big room.
Speaker 6: We're traveling down to Malkahes it's called Long Island in
June we're playing in Loversville, which is just outside of Albany,
so we're branching out a little bit more.
Speaker 1: Okay, are there anything like a cruise or anything like that.
Speaker 6: Actually, we've been talking about that so they obviously there's
a lot of eighties cruises out to Yeah, so we
might be we might be trying to get involved in
something like that. Yeah, the sky's limit, you know, so
long as everybody's available to play.
Speaker 5: We just love doing it. It's it's it's a passion.
Speaker 1: It really there is a whole future here that's going on.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 1: Yeah, absolutely, that's but are you working like, let's say, Thursday, Friday, Saturday.
I don't know if they do stuff on Sunday every
night of the week. So, I mean, obviously SURS is
some project.
Speaker 6: I would say at least every week. I was on
vacation last week, so I obviously had nothing going on.
Speaker 1: I was out of town.
Speaker 5: But coming up probably like every week at least one show.
Speaker 1: Yeah. Yeah, And are you booked through the summer already?
Speaker 5: Pretty much?
Speaker 1: Yeah? Pretty much? If there's open dates, how would let's
say someone listens and goes, hey, man, I would love
to have the Imites play my space. How do they
find you?
Speaker 6: So Tyler Norton music on Facebook, Tie Deal seventy two
on Instagram, Uh huh, And yeah, that's that's where you
can find me. And if anybody wants to hire me,
you know, obviously, if I'm available, I'll do it.
Speaker 1: I'll be That's I just love the graduation parties. Barmitzva
does them all.
Speaker 6: There's little toy parties that the ladies have, you know, whatever, whatever,
whatever we had.
Speaker 1: One of those, we're gonna we could have used the
music thing.
Speaker 6: Yeah, it's would have been more entertaining than the first debate, right,
you know, it's whatever happens. You know, music is such
as a gift for me. It's people say, oh, music
has saved my life. It literally has saved my life
through the years, trials and tribulations, you know, with with
past issues that have gone on in my life.
Speaker 5: Music has always.
Speaker 1: Been there, you know.
Speaker 5: And that's the greatest thing about music.
Speaker 6: Whether you're feeling good, you're feeling bad, you're feeling sad, whatever,
there's always some kind of music that's gonna get you
through it.
Speaker 1: Let me ask you another personal question that I don't
know how I feel about it. The mom's still around. Yeah, yeah, good. Yeah,
she's gotten to see you perform so well.
Speaker 6: So I got a little grudge about that one. I
gotta say, she probably not listened to because she's like
so old school. She probably doesn't know what a podcast is.
Speaker 1: How old is mom?
Speaker 5: She is seventy eight?
Speaker 1: Okay, same as so right in between my mom and dad.
My dad's seventy nine, it'll be eighty and she and
my mom is seventy seven, right.
Speaker 6: So yeah, yeah she is. She has never seen m eighties.
I actually bought her and my brothers tickets at Christmas
time to go see us at the Lago.
Speaker 5: I would think she didn't make the truth of this stuff.
Speaker 1: I would think so too. Has she seen you performer?
Speaker 5: She saw me maybe ten years ago?
Speaker 1: Oh, I would hitting at three.
Speaker 5: I didn't have a dumb high school student. I'm forty three.
Speaker 1: There's a couple of those arounds, you know, puped a potato.
I didn't mean to hit a nerve there, but that wow, yeah.
Speaker 6: No, it's it's not a nerve. It's just she's just
she's old school. She's set in her ways, you know,
and that's fine. She could barely eat text on a self.
Speaker 1: I mean the reason and I asked, is because you
said some really nice things. I think that she worked
three jobs for this stuff, and uh, you think, like
you know, you have kids. Sometimes you think they don't notice,
and you think back to what you did notice and
your kids are noticing to it, and I think that's
really important. But I thought that was almost a really
loving statement to say about your mom working three Thank you. Yeah,
it's it's and I owe all that I know it
to my mother. I really your mom because she hasn't
come out to seat right. She was holding up for
backstays past.
Speaker 2: That.
Speaker 1: This year you played Del Lago. What's the played the
Vine at the Lago? The Vine, that's a whole. Yeah,
so she Mike Tyson there it's about fourteen hundred seats.
Speaker 6: Yeah, yeah, we were about one hundred and I think
one hundred and fifty shives selling out.
Speaker 1: Damn dude, that's impressive as help, because I got to
think they have national acts that aren't putting to any
in the room.
Speaker 5: And that's that's what they've told us. They've said, Hey,
we had national acts here that don't feel the seats
thing you guys do you know? So define see makes
us feel pretty good.
Speaker 6: I mean, we're basically playing other people's music, you know,
but interpreting it in our own way, and obviously putting
on a show, putting out a high energy visual show
where we're actually connecting, making eye contact with the audience
and not looking at an iPad calling it.
Speaker 1: In the other thing is like when you go see
a band, right, they may get sick of playing I
don't know, but they may get sick of playing the hits.
But that's why you're there, right, you want to see
the hits. And when they say, hey, here's a new
one from our latest album, everybody gets up. They're like, right,
I mean how to use the men's room? Yeah, you
left the concert. Huh. We left the concert because the
first eight songs they played was their new album, and
I left the caring but I think the new album
is called it Sucks, and they left who was it?
Count of Crows? I like that new album, but the
new album was years ago, Okay, years ago.
Speaker 5: Yeah, everybody wants to hear mister Jones, right, Yes, I
came from mister Jones.
Speaker 1: But that's the thing. But I have to think Tyler
being around all this, having all this talent and doing it.
You've got to be right in some of your own stuff. Well,
I do. Yeah.
Speaker 6: So when I do my own music, when I do
my like acoustic shows, I'll throw in my own music.
Speaker 1: Yeah. Yeah. Do you ever try like dipping a toe
out there with a YouTube video or YouTube videos out
you do?
Speaker 2: Yeah?
Speaker 6: Of original songs, I do, yeah, But I don't make
like a conservative effort to like put it out there. Hey,
this is me, this is my original stuff. It's out
there to find. But I don't really pay as much attentions.
Speaker 5: As I should.
Speaker 1: I'm always curious is because you really got to. I mean,
the name of the game now is attention. It's an
attention game right on social media and stuff. And so
if you don't get it, but I bet your shit
is great. And I think that's because you just can't
be doing what you've been doing for so long and
not all of a sudden go ah, I got this thing.
I just have to get out.
Speaker 6: That's that's the creative outlet and the only downside of that.
And I know a lot of people that play original music.
Speaker 5: Right, it's it's you know, it's it's tough.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 6: The way I put it is like doing original music
around here is like pissing yourself in a dark suit.
You get a warm feeling yourself, but nobody else notices it.
Speaker 1: That's great, piss it in a dark suit.
Speaker 2: I love it.
Speaker 1: That's a great That's a great analysis.
Speaker 8: Bill, every friend of edible that just Bill every night
on the microphone in the fust. I just pissed a
warm shuit, take a lush nobody can know it. That's
a great analogy.
Speaker 1: I I understand that. No, I no wish to ever
like like, I don't know, did you want to be
a singer? I still do. I got that dumb question.
Let me rephrase that. Did you want to be like
a John Mayer Todd? I don't know? Was that?
Speaker 2: Yeah?
Speaker 5: You know it's something that I do every day.
Speaker 6: You know, I try to hold my craft and I've
all always subscribe to hey because people come up to you, Oh,
you're amazing, you're great, you got you sing so well,
blah blah blah. Yeah, but I always try to stay humble.
It's like, no matter how good people tell you you are,
there's always somebody out there that's better than you, and
there's always somebody that's going to burn your ass that
you just got to keep going to try to be
the best that you can be. Success is not a destination.
It's a constant that you have to keep working towards
to just get better.
Speaker 1: You know, well, I think it's fascinating. I didn't know
all this stuff about it. I mean, I knew right
we had cross paths run.
Speaker 5: We can do this a couple more hours, a whole more.
Speaker 1: I would love to have you into the studio, honestly
to just talk about all this stuff. I think it'd
be great. I would love it. Also, if you've got time. Yeah,
I was gonna say, bring a guitar or we could
play whatever you have out there and you could talk
about sort of almost I always loved one of the
things I always loved was the pop up video. Then
when you tell you the story about the video or
what was behind it, yep. I love knowing that stuff.
What inspired this song and who it was. And I
gotta think there's probably a song for your wife after
twenty nine years, there's a few. Yeah, Oh shut up,
bitch does not count. Tyler. Thank you for laughing at that, because.
Speaker 9: I really like, let's hope we won't let Danny sing
with it, all right, we will take them all.

Speaker 2: Yes?
Speaker 1: I see who you hang out He starts teaching it. There,

Speaker 4: No?
Speaker 1: Yeah, I got it? Is that a little better?
Speaker 2: Perfect?
Speaker 1: That's really perfect? Yeah?
Speaker 2: I can.
Speaker 1: How about Tam This is great? Well, seventeen years we
were saying earlier how hard it is to just maintain
a bar and all that, And I would say a
lot of that is the personality and authentic, all authentic.
Go in here. It's authentic. Don't tell I said this
when I first met up with like, is accent real?
A lot of people thought that a lot of people
did because he's been in America for a while, so
it's a little softer than the actual hard, hard, gallic sound.
He's got a heart of gold. So I'm glad so
many people came out. I am too, so. Sheriff of
Monroe county. I mean it's a it's a big county
and there's an awful lot of stuff that goes on
to this and it's a huge I mean you look
at everything from you know, the jail on and on
the way you have been. You are what everybody claims
to be. And I don't mean that just because you're
sitting there. I think we set it to Deputy Hurley
as well, the transparency. No, Depula Hurley said it to
us because he's looking for a raise. What you were saying.
He never told me, no, no, no, it was all
about We talked to him about the jail and the investigation, right,
and I said the fact that everything was just laid
out on the table, there was no cars hidden. We're
not we're explaining what we're doing. There's an investigation. And
then as to why and all that, that's a different
And I think in this day, I'll say, in this
world today, because everybody has I always say, a TV
station in their pocket. Basically they can go live on
anything at any point and they can, you know, scream
out an opinion and they can scream it because it's
in all caps or whatever it is. And uh, I
think that's it's really it's hard to do what you
do because it's very public. And I mean, I don't
think you know, there's a certain segment of the population
probably where we are, who have never been inside a jail,
you know, and know how it all works.
Speaker 7: I was in Auburn today, you know, I was talking
about I was talking to jail debins from all across
New York in Auburn, and we're talking about that various.
Speaker 1: Things no one knows. No one has any idea what
goes inside of jail, and the courage and.
Speaker 7: The honor and the nobility these corrections officers, these are
amazing human beings like wan ear and do this for
a job, right, and so it really hurts thee one
screws up.
Speaker 1: But you know, in our organization, we take care. We
just take our business. Right.
Speaker 7: If you screw up, we'll take our business. We'll fix it,
we'll move on, we'll learn from it, and we'll move on.
But the number one thing, you just be transparent with
the public. Where public servants, you just got to tell
the people what's going on and and and make sure
you correct it.
Speaker 1: I think it's like the key to almost everything we
hear right in a marriage and anything that's communication. Right,
you nailed it. That's exactly what it is. And when
you have the communication, you kind of take you take
a lot of the bullshit away, which is hard to do.
Sometimes you don't want to do that communication. Well, no,
because how many times do like I mean think about
I can think of instances with schools and whatever. They
don't want this stuff out. Whatever is happening inside these
they don't want this stuff out. You nailed it, right,
especially schools. Yes, they don't want it true. What's going on,
what's happening is exactly and.
Speaker 2: I got it.
Speaker 1: I got the ship.
Speaker 7: I'm going to correct it whatever it is, yes, and
move on right right, And no one expects perfection.
Speaker 1: It was funny. I was sitting at a hockey tournament,
like you said, with a TV in my pocket. I
saw it and I'm like, the data story broke. I'm
texting Hurley even a busy day today. Yeah, I love
the abusic I do well, he said, He yeah, I
like Hurly and I love Hurley. And by the way,
the mustache that early has that doesn't go on, that's fantastic.
That should be a violation of apologies. That is a
great mustache that made Yeah, why stick, it's good? He
had it all the way down.
Speaker 2: You don't like it.
Speaker 1: I'm literally saying nothing, you can't see. No, it looks
good quote unquote. But Monroe County sheriff is an elected position, right, so,
and and you've already served. Have you done two terms?
Speaker 7: I'm finishing up my second term? Yes, is my you
know this would be the end of the second term
the summer, of course.
Speaker 1: I think that. So then this year is the election again? Exactly? Yeah, Yeah,
anybody stepped up to run against you? Does anybody want
to try? We had a lot of people stepping up,
We had other parties courting candidates to run against us.
My wife, who just walked by here, she's our campaign manager.
She's she's amazing.
Speaker 7: And we went on the offensive. The best defense is
a good offensive. Let's see if we can prevent an
election from me an occurring. We love our job, we
love what we're doing, but.
Speaker 1: It's a campaign's strategy.
Speaker 7: So we really went We started campaigning last year for
this year to make sure it wasn't a campaign, and
it was our strategy. And verybody's listening.
Speaker 1: It's not a bad move. It's the second time we've
done it. Let's just keep on doing our job and
do it as best we can. And well, I just
think that the way the county is from your post
is run has been fantastic, right, And everybody's been working
together on how well you've worked with the city and
you know, helping them and backing them and all the
things that go on there. And certainly they've had their
I mean they've they've got a whole world when of
things happening, both politically and uh, just on the streets.
Speaker 7: And I was talking to Dave Smith, the chief of
the Rochet Policeman, just yesterday. You know, we're having a
conversation how are you doing?
Speaker 1: That's kind of relationship we have. He's going through a
rough perry right now. Like you're still a human, You're
still a husband, your still father?
Speaker 5: How are you?
Speaker 1: Yeah?
Speaker 7: And but by the way, we got something coming up
this Tuesday, like how can I help you out with that?
Speaker 1: Or can I do anything with you? How does it
work for you guys? But I know that the city
has said that the cops can't come out and help
these other agencies. Are you guys at sheriffs able to
step in and.
Speaker 7: Help Yeah, immigration is a tough conversation right now. The
Sheriff's office, we changed nothing the first Trump administration, the
Biden administrators, and second trumpet.
Speaker 1: We're staying down the middle of the fairway right right.
Speaker 7: If we have a reason a call, border patrol, will
call borbatrol. But we're not out looking for immigrants. There's
a lot of immigrants here working hard. There's a lot
of ladies being.
Speaker 1: Traffic, literally being traffic, sexual traffic.
Speaker 7: We just made an rust the other day in one moment,
So we're trying to not stand up, don't want to
being afraid.
Speaker 1: We just want to do our job as law enforcement.
She's interesting it, you know, as you're saying that, and
I'm thinking like, even if you're an Irish power with
an Irish guy, no don't, don't, don't take Damien from us.
I don't. But you're still hearing a visa. I wer's
got seven seven that's uh. I just think that it's
such a he's in a visa. No always, he's a
whip it out. I'll pay for everything. Discovery's got them all.
But the tough part is like trying to ride that
line right because I think of it this way, when
it comes to immigration, we hear about the bad, right,
how many are those compared to the people, as you said,
we're working hard? Yeah, And I went to even compare
that to police. I hate when I hear a stereotype, right,
why you can't do it? Cannot It's not fair, and
it's one that's going to paint the whole thing. And
I go, boy, we've got this all backwards right now,
and a lot of pointing fingers and a lot of
you know, you're so bad you should be put off
into let's say a proverbial time out for however long
that is, and go, that's nothing. It make a better society,
at least in my oppostion. Well, no, we talked about
this before in your show.
Speaker 7: You know.
Speaker 1: It's like saying every Patriot fans is right, right, and
I got to run it. You got your great guy. Yeah.
I would literally lay my wallet in front of them,
walk away. I wouldn't worry about it. That's how simple
this is.
Speaker 7: You right, say everybody something that's bulls I called the
bullshit flag on that.
Speaker 1: That's be yes, you can't do that. No, life is
not that simple. No, And I think most people would absolutely,
but That's what.
Speaker 7: Our book ends want to do all the time, right,
whether they're very progressive or conservative, it's.
Speaker 2: All or none.
Speaker 1: And they call me all the time, you got to
do all or none. I'm like, I'm not. I'm the sheriff.
I don't do all or none in anything. I hit
it down in the middle of the fair. We would
make calls based on this situation, on the situation in
front of in front of us.
Speaker 2: And we play it as best than ten.
Speaker 1: We're not perfect, but we played the best we can.
I heard a story recently and I don't know, and
you can explain maybe better that when a kid uses
the term like they get into an altercation in school
and they'll go, I'm going to kill you that now,
the schools call the police, and the police investigate so
far as to search the home for weapons. Yeah, it
could be. That's what I've been told. And that has
a situation like that, And you have Tyler was on
a group thread in like fourth or fifth grade and
they were joking around talking about we're going to kill
the teacher, and somehow it got one of the parents
saw it and we got called in with all of
the security from Greece Central school and they realized that
they were fourth graders and they were just jerking around. Yeah, right,
but it was it was scary as shit for me
because I'm like, yeah, this kid's ten, this is where
And I've been told like they can call and have
your home investigated, you know, just search your home for
weapons or whatever it's available, and we do it. We
do since.
Speaker 7: But we do them. We do them a lot of
common sense, right, but it makes sense. Yes, we're gonna
go there and see a fourth grader. We're not going
to search the home for you, you know, we'll ask
them clarifying questions, we'll invest this information.
Speaker 1: We're not going to search the home. But the other
thing is that it's a twelfth grader and he's got
access to dad shotguns. And he made the same comment.
We're gonna take it a little more serious. We've just
got it deeper, right. And I always don't like some
of those things sometimes because I think it makes the
police almost the enemy right in that situation to young people,
and I go, they're not, They're here to keep you safe.
I always think of what my father used to say
to me, I'm not here to ruin your good time.
I'm here to keep you alive, right, you know, and
that was It's a great way. Yeah, it's a great
way to put it. And it's a teachable moment for
Tyler because it's like, hey, you can't say just anything
you want, and you know what, people when you're to
do their job, the words matter and have some as
you get older. We call it emotional intelligence to understand
the environment you're saying things in they could trigger someone else. Right,
your words mean something.
Speaker 7: So you know if I walk in me and say
you inion sucks, you know, Billie and I are laughing
at our top and you're kind of offended.
Speaker 2: Right, We just know the environment you're in.
Speaker 1: But at the other side of it, we've gotten so
sensitive with some of those lies. And just for that example,
I would go, I don't give it a crab bake
and feel kevity. He wants to find us on the way.
He's gonna throw me down the stairs. Yeah, no, one's
so many downstairs. I gotta catch you first. Is there
a pretty gonna happen? Is there a baja?
Speaker 2: Yeah?
Speaker 1: Oh? I love them. So I was supposed to do
with this.
Speaker 7: My friends are down there, Matt Barns and Matt's not there,
but our friends are down there doing a race right now.
We just spoken this afternoon. We're supposed to be there,
but this is an election year, so we decided to
not have to leave Rochester. But it looks like we
don't have an election. So septemb We're gonna go down
and do a motorcycle ride. Five day motorcycle ride through
the Baja Peninsulas.
Speaker 1: Really time. Yeah, I've never done it before. I don't
ride motorcycles. I don't either. I get a big Harley,
but I don't ride dirt bikes by any means to
your Bob. So is this dirt bike bikes through Bob? Yeah, Wow,
that's our next adventure. That sounds a winning. Yeah, really challenging.
And the food is great, the tacos are awesome. That
are wonderful, and it's a great experience. Baas it's like
another world. It's another planet, I would think. I mean,
you guys put a lot into that. And the documentary
that's out there too, is really interesting to watch. And
forgive me, I'm forgetting the title of it, but you
can find it on YouTube. Yeah, sixty three hours, that's
sixty three We did raise three years in a row.
The first two years we literally got our butts kicked.
The third year were able to complete it in sixty
three hours. It took that long time. I think the
principal findess is into Baha as well. Oh really, I
think so I need to hook me up for them.
I didn't know it. That's good. I don't feel like
I've seen it on his Facebook. Yeah really, I didn't
know it. I didn't either. That's a uh. That's a
good du that that. That's a lot that you guys
are doing. The uh. I want to ask you what
is I always think that sometimes when people stop taking
accountability for themselves, we lead to problems in society, and
that when you go down the street and then and
this is going to sound so long, I feel like
I'm such an old man. But when the lawns are
mode and the garbage is put away, and people that
you have less problems there, and it's when people start
to lose that sense of pride and they may it. Yeah,
then all of a sudden, you go, wait a second,
what are we doing here? And I and I always
think like you sound like a curmudget right if you
say that, But I go, but there's some truth to it.
I know it's your zippers way up in your zier.
I got my crimutch and zipper on. At least some
of that first code pain became of enforcement. We called
it the broken window theory, right, yeah, yeah, it's truly.
Speaker 7: A philosophy in law enforcements, a public safety philosophy.
Speaker 1: It got bastarded.
Speaker 7: We can't even see that term anymore when because if
we got bastardized by other people for someone it's not
designed to do.
Speaker 1: But the concept is.
Speaker 7: Take care of little problems in there, Yeah, your neighborhood,
and the big problems won't come right, right, So if
you take care of the broken window in your neighborhood
and you just selly, that's a broken window, I'm gonna
get that fixed.
Speaker 1: Are gonna make.
Speaker 2: Someone fix it? Right?
Speaker 1: Then the drug dealers don't come and the rest of
this stuff doesn't come up. With all that, And now
that sounds so simple, and it is really simple. But
you want do the same thing with your house, right.
It's like people, it's almost like, ah, they don't give
a ship, so why should I give a ship?
Speaker 7: And you wonder why there's there's trash all over four
And now when you're driving out, you wonder why people
are driving like asses.
Speaker 1: Up now and four nine you beginning. We can't take
little things when I see gum. I used to like
if I saw my kids spit gum down and it didn't,
I would be like, get that even garbage, I lose
my mind. And I know to me it starts with gum.
Get the fucking gum in garbage.
Speaker 7: A friend of mine when we're growing up on older
street like, I want o this neighborhood. You know, someone
would throw a bottle in the street and a break
and knee. Who's like, my dad's gonna drive over as
soon leave? Yes, my dad's gonna drive Yes, right, this
is our neighborhood.
Speaker 1: This is all right.
Speaker 7: If you think about my dad now having to fix
the flap, he I thought, I still remember that this day,
that he's worried about his dad driver and his probably
and we went home, We clean up the street.
Speaker 1: Yes it was us being jerk teenagers, but no, but
I crape up HBO and it's our neighborhood. And I
always feel like that makes the better neighborhood. And I
think a broken window theory. Yeah, so when you read
about it negative connotations. That's really what it is. Yeah,
you know, take care of the graffiti and the walls, right,
you know, right, rake a yard. See then they then
you get these companies that will come out and go, well,
we need to be nonprofit. We're gonna raise a bunch
of money. We need to get on. Uh, we need
to clean all the we need to clean all the
graffiti up. And then they don't clean the graffiti up.
Somebody's pocketing the money and we still but if they
go around and clean up maybe some of the graffiti,
but not all the graffiti. You know. This is how
I always feel like some of this stuff becomes a
way for somebody else to make money. And I hate
that too. I'm going off on a tan.
Speaker 7: But people taking advantage of Well, there's another saying that
I like say that failure pays, Yeah a lot in
our community, especially in government. If you fail, we just
keep it more money and you make more money for
failure pays.
Speaker 1: I can think of some school districts. Isn't an example
doesn't work?
Speaker 2: Failure?
Speaker 1: No, it doesn't work. Failure doesn't Well, it doesn't work
in my job. He's a right, No it doesn't. And
the thing that really really often will bother me is
because I would say, arguing foreign limitations. I can't do
this because I have X, Y and Z. Stop right,
you're you're you're fine, everything's fine.
Speaker 10: You know.
Speaker 1: The one that bugs me a lot, and poverty. I
teach classes on poverty.
Speaker 7: I sent a lot of my jail deputies to poverty
simulators to understand what poverty does to the human brain
when you're young and it's difficult, it's really difficult to
get out of poverty.
Speaker 1: But stop with the poverty causes crime. That's insulted people
in poverty.
Speaker 7: Right, That's like, so I'm portion that I almost said
that word, but idow we can't say he can't stereots
up someone's trying to get out of poverty and say
poverty because a criminal.
Speaker 1: No, Right, so we can't explain criminality based on poverty.
We can say that there may be more because people right, right,
Let's be careful how we talk. Very that's a very
interesting thing. Here was one that I always thought was
interesting because I you know, the voter I d thing
and a lot of times and I've I've asked, I
try to keep an open mind, but I go, is
it insulting to say they don't even they but as
you always the term they are, they don't know where
the d m V is. And I'm like, I have
a funny feeling that they may or may know someone
who does. And is that insulting? That was my thing.
It's kind of insulting. And when I said that to somebody,
they're like, well, you don't understand, and I'm like, I
guess I know. It's right next to BTV. Remind me
to tell you a story. I was wondering where that
was going. You get to ask him our questions for
this question, I don't know. So with Labor Day coming up,
Memorial to excuse me, we're not the end of summer.
I'm already wished it away my veters friends, Yes, it
was brilliant. Hive me forgive me. Memorial Day coming up,
which I always think is like, I used to love
the Memorial Day parade. I grew up in a small
town and we used to do two parades with the band. Yeah,
somebody's gonna buy us again, it's coming. I used to
love to march in the Memorial Day parade. Oh really, Yeah,
we used to do it when I was in height
I grew up in a really small ruler by the
way downstate, about an hour south of Almany, in a
place called Pine Plains, Pine Plain Pine. It was seven
kids and they were just scaring around Pine Plan Yes.
And I'm telling you Todd, they had their own police force.
And at Main Street planes had their own police force. Yes,
the speeling of rain Plains police force. Yes. And they
would drop their coming, they would drop. They would drop
from fifty five to thirty five as you got into
the village. And the chief Cows was his name. He
lived right on Main Street, and he used to use
the radar out his window in the eighties and then
walk up to you in the drug store earlater tickets.
Speaker 7: Yes, yeah, yes, Well I'm gonna share a story on
the wait here where you come from the west side.
We're driving all with the care partner's a BMW. I
got the licen plate memorize in my head. I'm visiting
him tomorrow. By the way, he went by us about
one hundred and twenty miles an hour, zooming in and
out of lanes of four ninety.
Speaker 1: My beautiful bride Mary.
Speaker 7: We finally we didn't catch up to when we got
caught in traffic, but I got those licenclate.
Speaker 1: I got a pretty picture. Mary took up his face. Oh,
I can't wait to knock out of his door tomorrow,
Like you you're gonna kill people, dude? Yeah, no sex.
I don't want to be there speech. I don't want
to make a comunch. You got to where right?
Speaker 4: But no, but you're killing people? Who's driving with time?
I can't wait to visit him. I loved to go fast.
I love to drag race. I love to go down
and walk its Glenn and race. I will always say
to my son's do not play those games. On four
ninety there's a family the road to the building that
goes in your lane.
Speaker 1: You're going over that, d How bad do we want
to see that? By the camp foot into dude? I

Look at this tunea do you leave littlestick? No, Tuna
did not leave. You're fine, You're love you too. So
again with the election year, is there going to be
do we need an election? I think we need to
keep going no, No, it's so there's it looks like
I have no one running against me this year. Some
people bubble the head of surface.
Speaker 7: We kind of did the offensive move, best defense offense.
It looks like we're going to be fine this year.
I'm going to work for four more years, just going
out and doing my job.
Speaker 1: I leave great people. I got twelve hundred employees. I
got the hurlies of the world. These because are heroes.
Speaker 7: The jail deputies are freaking heroes of the world, right,
And so I get to do my job for four
more years. That's how I look at it, and just
the beautiful part of being an electri sheriffs.
Speaker 1: You got freedom, you're not political, you're.
Speaker 7: Not a tied to any political party. So I'm pretty
sure that's behind us. And you'll just see Todd doing
his job for another four years.
Speaker 2: A beast second, yep.
Speaker 1: And we'll make mistakes, we'll be We'll work on our
butt off.
Speaker 2: That's all we do.
Speaker 1: Well. The one thing Servant I would say is that
mistakes or not, I don't know. But when things happen,
it's boy, you get out in front of it and
explain it, and there's no hiding of it. Everything's right there.
Speaker 7: One of my first we had a gel escape or
escape you about prisoner in the University of Rochester. It's
like six months in the new Sheriff an eight month
pregnant lady escaped her her bed with two deputies watching her,
and sprinted down the hallway in her gown. Right, eight
month pregnant in her gown and all glories flopping all.
Speaker 1: Over the place.
Speaker 7: I got the video acuse he smoked us for four hours, Right,
I still tell the story.
Speaker 1: I got to go see the media hear in a
couple of minutes and tell him today we sucked. Today
we sucked. Yeah, an eight month regul lady smomped us
in the University of Rockster. Who wants to be the
person that has to tackle the ap people pregnant? I
don't want to do We don't do it me too.
I don't do my top perfect every day. Yeah, that's hard,
that's hard. It was a tougher, But it's a hard
job and you do it well and you make it.
You do it with grace and dignity. I'll tell you that.
That's it's amazing. So got to get back to Memorial
Day real quickly. Forgot you started drinking again. Memorial Day
is coming up, and it's a big I always say
it's like the kickoff of the kickoff of drinking season.
So we would like to summer no, no, the kickoff
of drinking season. And we thought it would be fun
if we could get someone to come in and do
a breathalyzer to see how many drinks you're doing, be
to the point zero eight while we're doing a podcast.
And I don't know if that's something that is there's
something wrong with that. I don't think. Okay, I don't
think there is either, but I don't know. We'll do
it on the west side of my house so I
don't have to drive anywhere. My wife paper. We dropped
you off there a couple of times already only joking it. Yeah,
but I mean, is that something that we could bother
early about. I think so, yeah, it would be fun
to do. Okay, we'll making an educational thing. That's what
they want to do. This is because I wish our.
Speaker 2: Drink.
Speaker 1: There's case my line at an hour before that you
should not have been driving. But sure, how close are
we to How close is New York State to lowering
the legal limit to points zero five. You know they
keep on talking about it. There is a lot. I
think it's personally. I think it's unrealistic. I think points eerily.
Speaker 7: It was you know one one right point Zeroly's probably
the line we needed to be at to say that
person should.
Speaker 1: Not be driving or even high. Our biggest problem right
now is people are driving high people and.
Speaker 7: There's no breathalyzer for there's no roadside screening we need
to get believe it or not, a deputy or a
police officer to make that arrest has to be a
subject matter expert.
Speaker 1: They have to go to expert training. It's called drug
records and expert training. Right, any cop can make a detail.
Why right, because you've got the equipment that yeah, you
got you've been trained say word, eyes, the slurred speech,
I can't walk straight. And you got the equipment on roadside.
There's no equipment for roadside screaming yet for driving high. Hey,

But the with the owner of sales, and I said,
I got an Australian visa, go abroad.
Speaker 1: He goes, well, there's a job here for me to
come back.
Speaker 2: I said, ah, so I got something going. Then I
moved to New York City, fell love New York.
Speaker 10: City over stay me visa, loved it, and honestly I didn't.
I was a part from the local pub when back
and then and like a couple.
Speaker 1: Nights a week.
Speaker 2: That wasn't my gig, but I did.
Speaker 10: And then it's just like I love meeting people, enjoy people,
persona like I like make people happy.
Speaker 1: So yeah, so so we gave it a go.
Speaker 10: Came over here in Manhattan, was there five years parrettend
and loved it. And then the ex wife, she from Fairport.
Speaker 2: One of mo up here.
Speaker 10: I said there's no way I moved in the fair Force.
I'm not a hope in hell. I'm not going up
to State New York. And I came here and worked
in down He's down the street. For some reason, they
fired me when I bought the next door to do
my hair as well.
Speaker 2: It's now the Natty's and I'm Bill.
Speaker 1: Bill might have told the sheriff you were an inspired visa.
Speaker 2: I got the sheriff. Don't worry about Yeah, the sheriff
po get Shariff's my boy.
Speaker 1: But it's funny because Fairport now is one of the
hottest places to live in all the United States.
Speaker 2: And you know what I saw that it was like
the top ten of the house is sell above yes,
and it was like it.
Speaker 10: Was number four to the top locals one hundred and
fifty places.
Speaker 2: And I just want to see some respect and thanks
for them.
Speaker 1: It's because I locome.
Speaker 2: I put the space on them.
Speaker 1: I will tell you what do me to do?
Speaker 5: What more do you want?
Speaker 1: I think you have. Here's the thing that I always
love about Davian. It's like I would love to hang
out with Damien and then we would all of a
sudden day we go all right, we're leaving and he
didn't know where you were going, but you were going
to another bar or establishment in Fairport that he was supporting.
And he came in and like you support everybody?
Speaker 2: Yes, I do, listen.
Speaker 10: So in New York, sitting move there first Every Second
Doors and Irish Pub, right, so you got to do
something different. So like it's just it's like it's like
personality and people come to that place, but it's also
you support each other.
Speaker 2: So in Manhattan Every Second Doors and Irish Pub. So
I was like, well how do you survive?
Speaker 10: So when I came here first, my goal was when
I wanted to open all countries. I want my my
my pactors be personal and I.
Speaker 2: You know, so like your your home alone and goes
where do I go?
Speaker 10: I can buy a six pack of beer for eight bucks,
or I go and quiet Pine for eight bucks. If
I go to a bar, if I may sit by
myself or has.
Speaker 2: Someone, people want to sit alone and stuff that.
Speaker 10: But it's it's also part of the Irish thing. It's
like we like to go to the pubs and have
fun and stuff that. So I try to create something
here in Fairport which is similar to what we had
vacuum where you go to your local pub and you're
welcome and you enjoy it, and you know what, and
you felt welcome no matter what.
Speaker 1: I can't tell you the number of people that I
meet and then they'll go, oh Damien. And it's always
said with like everybody feels as though they know you, Yes,
and they do. To an extent. I would say they
do because I said at the beginning is you are
very authentic. What you see is what you get. But
that happy, gregarious guy is ninety percent of the time.
Is that I present? He's got real life shit to do. Yes,
Well that's well Bill.
Speaker 2: You may have closest friends.
Speaker 1: Yes, so you know what, yes, and you know yes.
Speaker 10: So it's like, listen, I enjoy people, enjoy a ton
of people. And I also in the business where you
keep everyone happy.
Speaker 1: Yes, and I enjoy that.
Speaker 2: Listen. If I go home the other night and people smile,
I haven't get them on my pub. That makes me happy.
If I can make those people happy, then that's my guests.
It's not about that's seveneen years. It's great, it's fantastic.
Speaker 1: Do you ever think about what like that personality and
how like you have a connection to one of the
biggest celebrities in America.
Speaker 2: No, that's actually incorrect. Bill, He's got the because connection to.
Speaker 10: The smallest celebriand in Fairport, because he had an agent
and I didn't.
Speaker 1: But and I say that way only because I go,
God damn, just to have that connection is all on personality.
I love. That's my favorite story about you. So because
no one you didn't know.
Speaker 2: Yeah, but the thing about him is it's like our
relationship is not on it's not on that. No, so
it's pure friendship. So we talk, we hang out. He's
my friend and this some people reach out, he goes
see me, he takes the show.
Speaker 10: Just that ARUs that's not what it rolls. I said,
he's actually my friend. Yes, so he's so we met
each other and me not knowing who he was.
Speaker 1: Right, that's what I love.
Speaker 2: And then we have a connection for over twenty odd years.
Speaker 10: I've been to his house, tanks giving three years, enrolled,
I know, and it's like I'm the only non family member.
Speaker 2: But it's like because he's my friend.
Speaker 1: I think was the the COVID year where you hit
the slide and I think there's a video.
Speaker 10: Yeah, So so Dring COVID. I share, I'll talk to
him and his wife most nights in his Hampton house. Yeah,
and out in the garage it's like the bar into
the kids room and there's a slide out there.
Speaker 2: So I said, they said, actually had to him, said Jim.
I said, Jim, I said, you know what this when
people need you? Because because I said, people need you
to be the.
Speaker 10: Boy he said for America, he said, the whole country
shot down. He said, we got to figure it a
way me because people need entertainment.
Speaker 2: They're stuck at home. It's not cool. So he went
back and forth and whatever, and he did his cake.
It was awesome. He made America field. It's like, it's
like yes, and then other people got on board.
Speaker 1: So for his birthday and he was like, it was
no birthday. It was his birthday.
Speaker 10: So his uh, his wife told me, because I want
a surprise to me for his birthday, but it's COVID
and can't do planes.
Speaker 2: He goes, but, uh, but let me figure something out
because he wanted to surprise. He's almost said sure whatever.
So they said, well, I don't want to fly you
down in case he gets COVID. And I said, so
they said the driver and drove me back and it's amazing. Yeah,
great driver.
Speaker 10: I went there and we hung out and I went
to the slide and stuff. But the thing is, honestly
that that person that is my friend and break close
friend has done so much and his brain doesn't stop.
He's like he does so many kids books show. He's like,
I turn calm and goes, how.
Speaker 2: Do you not sleep on? How do you get?
Speaker 10: He's one of those people that just it just wants
to make people happy, and he does and he's pretty good.
Speaker 1: It must be the thing that brought you guys sort
of together. I don't know, but I am make people happy.
You all got except for him really happy because he is.
Speaker 10: People goes, it's Jimmy coming, and I said, I hope not,
because he never pays his tab when he should say
he's off in the bar, he gives away Drakes.
Speaker 2: I said, David, I think you got to pay for
your tablet.
Speaker 1: It's like that. It's like that Bill's playoff game where
they had to I'm back and everybody you know was
at that game. When it Jimmy comes, everybody is you've
the entire city in here. Well you're breaking all the
fire codes. So it's it's a funny thing because people
always say to me, well, you have to know, I
don't know. Even if I did, I'm not telling you.
Speaker 2: No, listen, I don't tell listen, I don't know.
Speaker 1: I tell yeah, I know, you don't.

Nice little week we built. We went and the top actor,

I don't want to say too much, Damien has been
one of like he's been a guy that I've been
through some battles, not battles with him. Helped you through,
to help me through some battle for real versus you
knowing you. He's been great to me. And I would
say COVID was another one where I'm going, what's he doing?
Oh for the website? Oh, I got it, Yes, But COVID,
Oh that was during COVID. I was just gonna say
COVID was one of my favorite times. Oh not, COVID
was one of my favorite times with David because we
would come here, like I always say, I always say
my like, I didn't experience COVID in the way the
rest of America experience my fucking clubhouse. I went to work.
I was on radio at the time. I went to
work every day and now we'd come here, but I
would get so drunk and I remember Mac pulling me aside,
going buddy, because I couldn't form. He goes you couldn't
form a sentence last night, and I would have someone
drive me home. And that was the way I was
living at the time, and I go, I just feel
like I never experienced COVID the way people. My kids
weren't living with me, so I wasn't going through the
homeschooling and then you know, all that stuff a little
bit maybe with Jordan, but they were here, but not
in my home, not under my roof. So if their
mom had to deal with all that and I was
here playing and if I say that, we'll come back
to bite me in the as Now, all right, we
will close it out. What a fun night. I hope
you've enjoyed the podcast as much as we have recording it.

never been here, just come out. Yes, even if Damian's
not here, it's still fun. He's right. Kevin is absolutely right,
