Speaker 1: So this is a super rad song.
Speaker 2: And this is the whole Damon Alburn project, The Gorillas.
Speaker 1: Do you guys know the rapper on this song?
Speaker 2: No, but I love that rap so much, the Homo Sapien, Right,
Speaker 2: Dell Dell the Funky Homo Sapien.
Speaker 1: Yeah.
Speaker 2: Have you ever heard mining Ben's Dell the Funky Homo
Speaker 2: Sapien story.
Speaker 3: Oh no, did you find out that he was Dell
Speaker 3: the Funky Homosexual?
Speaker 1: No?
Speaker 3: No, no, that would have been delp though. Right, that's
Speaker 3: a pretty good rap name. If you're gonna try to
Speaker 3: break into the game, I.
Speaker 1: Want to not.
Speaker 2: I don't think Dell would care. Nah, he's cool because
Speaker 2: this happened when he was nineteen. Yeah, he was on
Speaker 2: tour Statute too. Yeah, he was on tour with his
Speaker 2: older cousin Ice Cube. Oh wow, and the band Black Sheet.
Speaker 2: Do you guys know the song? You could get with this?
Speaker 2: So you can get with that. That's okay, that's Black
Speaker 2: Sheet okay. And they had a real huge record in
Speaker 2: like ninety one or whenever this was. Now, this was
Speaker 2: at the legendary concert hall in oak Cliff that I
Speaker 2: think is now a home depot, but at the time
Speaker 2: it was called Bronco Bowl.
Speaker 4: Yeah, I need to come back.
Speaker 2: And I'm telling you, man, I saw some bad ass
Speaker 2: shoes at the Bronco Bowl.
Speaker 4: Everyone has now.
Speaker 2: Me and Ben like to consider ourselves men of the people.
Speaker 2: So if you're out and about, we would love to
Speaker 2: drink a beer with you and talk. So part of
Speaker 2: this story I'm gonna leave off air, okay, but I
Speaker 2: encourage you if you ever see me and Ben out,
Speaker 2: to ask the reason this happened. But Ben and I
Speaker 2: and our friend Alvarez, and I think bl was there.
Speaker 2: You guys know bl We're in the crowd at the
Speaker 2: Bronco Bowl. Dell had just released his debut album called
Speaker 2: I Wish My Brother George was here, but he was
Speaker 2: not near as big, if big at all, as Ice
Speaker 2: Cube and Black Sheep. Everyone was there to see them. Yeah,
Speaker 2: so Dell is able to walk around in the crowd
Speaker 2: at the Bronco Bowl. Okay, So he comes walking. I'm like,
Speaker 2: oh my cause I loved his first record, like I
Speaker 2: was way into it, and I was like, oh my god,
Speaker 2: it's Dell.
Speaker 1: You're dude. You're like walking around.
Speaker 2: He's like, hey, yeah, he's just kind of a little dude.
Speaker 2: And so he just kind of stood there talking to
Speaker 2: us for a little while, and then at one point
Speaker 2: he goes, y'all are white boys? Do you know where
Speaker 2: I could get blank? And we're like, well, actually, Alvarez's
Speaker 2: next door neighbor sells that.
Speaker 1: I thought you're gonna say some p maybe it was.
Speaker 1: He tells it he made he was a pip and
Speaker 1: so was.
Speaker 4: Looking for some video games now and get some good
Speaker 4: video games around here.
Speaker 2: If you guys have listened to the Benning's Gen Show
Speaker 2: for a long time.
Speaker 1: We lived in Richardson.
Speaker 2: And Alvarez lived across street from huffein direct center. So
Speaker 2: you're talking PLANEO Road and like, I think that was
Speaker 2: Apollo Road. So Dell said, oh really, all right, we're in.
Speaker 1: I'm gonna get my boy. We'll meet you guys in
Speaker 1: a second.
Speaker 2: You'll leave what is now the home depot. We left
Speaker 2: oak Cliffe, we left the Bronco Ball. We didn't see
Speaker 2: ice Cube that night. Now I'd seen ice Cube other times.
Speaker 2: We drove to Richardson to get what Dell was interested
Speaker 2: in acquiring, and then we drove back after we had
Speaker 2: acquired whatever we had acquired, and we put on our
Speaker 2: demo tape.
Speaker 1: Oh boy after his mood had.
Speaker 2: Been changed, and his boy who was with him, who
Speaker 2: later ended up being in a group called Souls of
Speaker 2: Mischief who had a big rap song called ninety three
Speaker 2: till Infinity.
Speaker 1: You guys have probably heard it.
Speaker 2: He started speaking for the first time after the long
Speaker 2: drive to Richardson and the long drive back because they
Speaker 2: were loving it. But I think they were loving it
Speaker 2: because of how they were feeling. Yeah, we drove them
Speaker 2: all the way back to Cliff and all of the
Speaker 2: tour was waiting for us by the tour bus because
Speaker 2: Dell had held up the tour bus for wherever they
Speaker 2: were going Houston or wherever they were headed next. And
Speaker 2: he got out of our car and walked off into
Speaker 2: the night and we never saw him again.
Speaker 1: I mean, back then, you're not exchanging cell phone numbers.
Speaker 1: You are not. But he left with our demo tape.
Speaker 3: You're not thinking, oh, let me take a picture because
Speaker 3: you didn't want to have the camera.
Speaker 1: No, this would have been, honestly, like ninety one or
Speaker 1: ninety two. And all we have is those memories of
Speaker 1: you guys to relay this story.
Speaker 4: That is a badass story. But see, sometimes you drink
Speaker 4: a little bit or whatever. So those memories get cloudy
Speaker 4: and fuzzy, and that's why the pictures and stuff coming handy.
Speaker 1: People smoke, you know, yeah, you know some people smoke.
Speaker 1: I I fun you memory.
Speaker 2: I mean, there's so many things I like about that story.
Speaker 2: But my favorite part is, Yell, are white boys maybe
Speaker 2: in your car driving around, so we had to take
Speaker 2: two cars.
Speaker 4: That's amazing.
Speaker 3: So we'll take you to our Hispanic friend's house. Alvarez, Argentinian,
Speaker 3: Argentine whatever. I tried, but uh but yeah, that all happened.
Speaker 2: And uh and I'd like to think that maybe I
Speaker 2: not me personally, but all of us changed Dell's creative path.
Speaker 3: And then he was you know, how did he end
Speaker 3: up doing stuff with the Gorillas? Because I mean, I mean,
Speaker 3: we are Clint Eastwood right there. But yeah, he's on
Speaker 3: feel Good Inc.
Speaker 2: Yeah, their biggest hit, No de la Soulas on Field. Okay,
Speaker 2: I'm sorry, yeah yeah.
Speaker 5: Yeah.
Speaker 2: So one of the things that they the Gorillas do
Speaker 2: is they just work with different rappers and different artists
Speaker 2: and stuff. Dell was a Bay Area rapper and he
Speaker 2: was as he got more creative, he got a little
Speaker 2: more psychedelic and got a little more out there, you know.
Speaker 2: And so he definitely became and he became an indie
Speaker 2: darling like he was wasn't a big rap star, but
Speaker 2: he was part of this whole scene called the Hieroglyphics,
Speaker 2: and it was all Bay Area rappers that kind of
Speaker 2: had their own sound that wasn't like a hard funk thing.
Speaker 2: It was more kind of trippy and jazzy and psyche.
Speaker 2: And so he kind of became a honestly like he
Speaker 2: kind of became a favorite of like the white boy
Speaker 2: skateboard rap crowd or sometimes they were called backpack rappers,
Speaker 2: you know.
Speaker 1: Bay Area.
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, uh, And so it would totally make sense that.
Speaker 2: And he also had done some stuff. I think he
Speaker 2: did some stuff with a handsome boy modeling school.
Speaker 1: Do you guys know what that is? No? Do you
Speaker 1: guys know the TV show Get a Life?
Speaker 3: No?
Speaker 2: You guys know Chris Elliott. Yes, Chris Elliott who you
Speaker 2: probably would know Christina from something about Mary.
Speaker 1: You know, he was in Ship's Creek too.
Speaker 4: Okay, the real quick, you'll continue.
Speaker 2: Chris Elliott got to start his dad was a famous comedian,
Speaker 2: but he got to start on the David Letterman Show,
Speaker 2: playing weird sidebar, heare his sister is.
Speaker 3: Carmie's Uh his sister in real life is Carmei's sister
Speaker 3: on the Bear?
Speaker 4: Absolutely, He's also in a scary movie right with.
Speaker 2: A little Everything in the Night. Yeah, and I actually
Speaker 2: think Carmei's his daughter. Oh, I bet that is Abbey.
Speaker 2: I bet that Abby is his daughter. Yeah, which crazy
Speaker 2: because she was on SNL in the two thousands. And dude,
Speaker 2: when I had a shaved head and a beard, people
Speaker 2: told me all the time that I looked exactly like
Speaker 2: Chris Elliott, like all the time, uh so much so
Speaker 2: it scarred me.
Speaker 3: Get this, I don't see that Steve Higgins, who is
Speaker 3: the guy who is Jimmy Fallon's hype man. Okay, yeah,
Speaker 3: and he's Lauren right hand? Is Abby Elliott's uncle? Is
Speaker 3: that right? And and what should mean Chris Elliot's brother
Speaker 3: in law? Yeah, Chris Elliot's brother in law. Steve Higgins,
Speaker 3: one of his kids is one of the guys and
Speaker 3: please don't destroy Yeah, so connections are Chris Elliot's dad.
Speaker 2: I think his name is Bob Elliott. He was part
Speaker 2: of a comedy duo called Bob and Ray, but he
Speaker 2: was actually on the show Get a Life and Get
Speaker 2: a Life was on Fox in the early days when
Speaker 2: Fox was first launching, and it's not a great show,
Speaker 2: but I loved it because I love Chris Elliott and
Speaker 2: he's basically like a grown man living at home and
Speaker 2: he's a paper boy, and so at one point he
Speaker 2: wants to he does an ad in the back of
Speaker 2: a magazine to Joy that joined the Handsome Boy Modeling
Speaker 2: School and pays money and goes to the school and
Speaker 2: then feels exploited. I mean, dude, it's the dumbest thing.
Speaker 2: It's like, I think you should leave dumb. But it
Speaker 2: was on network television, and so when Prince Paul of
Speaker 2: Daylas Soul of fame started Handsome Boy Modeling School, he
Speaker 2: took it from that dumb TV show Get a Life,
Speaker 2: and so they'd have a bunch of samples from it,
Speaker 2: and Dell was on that and blah blah blah. That's
Speaker 2: how all this long thing goes. But yeah, so whenever
Speaker 2: we play the Gorillas and I hear Dell the funky
Speaker 2: Homo Sapien, I'm transported back to ninety one ninety two
Speaker 2: of the Ronca Ball when he got in our car
Speaker 2: and Oakcliff and drove to Richardson and it also reminds
Speaker 2: me of the intro.
Speaker 1: Shark Tom Boys.
Speaker 3: Right now, you're right right, right right righte.
Speaker 6: W epan with I'll show you going rubinghead if you
Speaker 6: except a simmer sweet pursuing it, donnld out shaw shank
Speaker 6: through the sewer. Kid now with chilling at the eagle. Yeah,
Speaker 6: we doing it. Three o'clock on the dock. Got a
Speaker 6: habit for my house, a gold status. Howard starting to
Speaker 6: get craddic shows that up multiplied like a rabbit tuned
Speaker 6: end zone.
Speaker 1: Out prink it up, beat the habit.
Speaker 6: I'm wanting out with my friend locking it on the radio.
Speaker 7: My home boys in talking on the radio. It's time
Speaker 7: to to this wall.
Speaker 1: Oh baby by we go, Kat Pristine all up radio.
Speaker 2: All right, it's a Friday afternoon and we have something
Speaker 2: brand new right now, It's time for.
Speaker 7: This world news, world news, world news.
Speaker 1: Okay, I have some stories.
Speaker 3: I have a couple of stories from the world I've
Speaker 3: been holding on to all week and I wanted to
Speaker 3: get to Okay, Scotland, Spain, Jouquing Garcia is his name. Uh.
Speaker 3: He decided to stop going to work six years ago.
Speaker 3: It's a toxic workplace. It's like, I'm not going to
Speaker 3: work anymore, but somehow they did not notice.
Speaker 1: So he's there.
Speaker 3: I took a paycheck without going to work for six
Speaker 3: years until the company even though they didn't realize that
Speaker 3: he doesn't work there anymore.
Speaker 1: But he didn't formally quit. He just stopped showing up.
Speaker 1: Uh huh. But this is very office space.
Speaker 4: It's amazing.
Speaker 8: He was due to receive an award for his twenty
Speaker 8: year job and they're like, wait, where's he at now.
Speaker 8: He was an engineer overseeing a wastewater treatment plant and
Speaker 8: he was in charge of.
Speaker 1: Two departments, and he quit showing up and he kept
Speaker 1: giving him money. God, this totally six years. This totally
Speaker 1: justifies all we've got to trim the fat. It really does.
Speaker 3: You know, now, this job was he was getting just
Speaker 3: thirty thousand a year pay, but the entire time to
Speaker 3: just not go to work because one days like.
Speaker 1: I've had enough.
Speaker 2: I wonder if he got a second job and just
Speaker 2: supplemented his income with the stipend from the wastewater management company.
Speaker 4: Maybe did you see the fall up to that? By
Speaker 4: the way, I've not seen the flow they took him
Speaker 4: to court obviously because he was, you know, getting pay
Speaker 4: for six years for not doing anything. He only had
Speaker 4: to pay back a year's worth of gallery just one year.
Speaker 2: Now.
Speaker 3: It said he quit because like the toxic environment. Is
Speaker 3: that because they weren't treating the.
Speaker 1: Water very well? Oh, let's think about that.
Speaker 3: And there's a my first story of World News, World News,
Speaker 3: World News.
Speaker 1: Did you work with the meters on that intro?
Speaker 7: World News?
Speaker 3: There's this guy in Peru. He's a fisherman and he
Speaker 3: was at sea for ninety four days just drifting. And
Speaker 3: guess what he was surviving on his urine?
Speaker 1: Nope? Uh oh, bear grills is urine? No, turtles and cockroaches.
Speaker 4: Wait, cockroaches in the.
Speaker 3: Ocean somehow very weird. He was drifting at sea, he saying,
Speaker 3: I don't know the story, said Peru guy.
Speaker 4: How many? Oh I can't.
Speaker 2: Maybe he had a bag of cockroaches and turtles with him. Yeah, maybe,
Speaker 2: but turtles, turtles, turtle meat is good eating?
Speaker 4: Is that the people do said it so matter of factly.
Speaker 4: You have to cook them, right, at least cook the
Speaker 4: turtle before you're just eating it.
Speaker 2: You know where you start. It's like sushi turtle meat
Speaker 2: if you put a little soy sauce on it. I'm
Speaker 2: telling you yeah.
Speaker 3: All right, God, we're off to a really good start.
Speaker 1: I love that. Can I hear the intro again?

Speaker 1: now it's time for this.
Speaker 6: Juicing your news.
Speaker 1: Hot gods, come.
Speaker 6: Stay on top in the shove.
Speaker 3: Like you see rock and roll Hall of You know,
Speaker 3: they announced the nominees about a month ago. We talked
Speaker 3: about it, put a couple of seven segments on it.
Speaker 3: Probably I love this every year though, Vulcher talks to
Speaker 3: two or three anonymous voters and they basically tell you
Speaker 3: who they voted for.
Speaker 1: They've already put.
Speaker 3: Their ballot in, okay, and you know when they announced it,
Speaker 3: why or why not? I don't know when they announced it.
Speaker 3: I know the induction that will be like in October,
Speaker 3: and then it'll air on network TV on and you're
Speaker 3: don't stream it on Disney you can, okay, And it'll
Speaker 3: be a network TV on like New Year's Eve or something.
Speaker 3: So voter one for Bad Company here which you go
Speaker 3: at alpabetic order. Okay, Bad Company? Are they a major
Speaker 3: rock act?
Speaker 1: No?
Speaker 3: I like them more than I want to admit though,
Speaker 3: because I like Paul Rodgers.
Speaker 1: He's got a great voice.
Speaker 3: You feel like making love. Maybe a Meatthead anthem, but
Speaker 3: it's catchy. I won't vote for them though. Voter two,
Speaker 3: it's a quintessential rock supergroup Paul Rodgers and Simon Kirk.
Speaker 3: So you got links to Free Mata Hoopel and King Crimson.
Speaker 3: They have a good chance of getting in without my vote.
Speaker 3: It's two no's I.
Speaker 2: I'm sorry and I told you all this when we talket.
Speaker 2: Bad Company is not all rock and roll hall of
Speaker 2: Fame group. To me, they're just not.
Speaker 4: I mean, the Paul Rodgers argument is really the only
Speaker 4: one that makes sense to me.
Speaker 2: But like I think some people think all right Now
Speaker 2: is a Bad Company song.
Speaker 1: It's a free song. Yeah, And like honestly, like you,
Speaker 1: did you ever listen to the firm?
Speaker 4: No, but I think I have one album just because.
Speaker 2: Yeah, because it's Jimmy Page Yes with Paul Rodgers on
Speaker 2: lead vocals.
Speaker 1: Yeah.
Speaker 3: The big radio hit was right Now, Active Black Crows No,
Speaker 3: it's possible to love an act and think they don't
Speaker 3: need to be in the rock Hall. Thank you, Voter two.
Speaker 3: I find them to be fantastic. I just don't think
Speaker 3: they're rock hallworthy. So Black Crows No agreed with these people.
Speaker 3: These people know what they're doing. Mariah Kerrey butter one.
Speaker 3: I buy the argument that she is influential. She's also
Speaker 3: a songwriter. I just don't love the material. In a
Speaker 3: world where everybody from Radiohead to Janet Jackson didn't get
Speaker 3: in on their first ballot, why was it such an
Speaker 3: outrage that she didn't either, Because last time she didn't
Speaker 3: get in. So they're kind of saying without saying, yeah, sure,
Speaker 3: but she can wait. It's like the Baseball Hall of
Speaker 3: Fame the way they treat that. Voter two said, I'm
Speaker 3: a huge fan. People forget how massive she was in
Speaker 3: the nineties and early adds. She's in the Songwriters Hall
Speaker 3: of Fame. She mixed pop, hip hop, soul, in R
Speaker 3: and B. She's excelled at it all.
Speaker 1: She should be in. To me, I don't like her.
Speaker 4: I don't see I'm just trying to think every band
Speaker 4: you name, if they should be in the Hall of fame.
Speaker 4: How many hits do they need to have at least?
Speaker 3: Well, you know, she's one who's got number one hit
Speaker 3: in the eighties, nineties.
Speaker 1: Two, and twenty tens. Yeah, she's got monster hits.
Speaker 4: Like, let's beyond me. I can't stand her as a person. No,
Speaker 4: she can't. Seems like a huge bitch and so that's
Speaker 4: why I just I'm out.
Speaker 2: Seems when you say huge, do you mean like metaphorically
Speaker 2: the bitchy factor?
Speaker 1: Yeah, okay, seems like yep, could be a nice gal.
Speaker 3: Chubby Checker voter one said this one bugs me. His
Speaker 3: career is overshadowed by one hit. The only reason Chubby
Speaker 3: recorded the Twist, which was an original song by Hank
Speaker 3: Ballard and the Midnighters.
Speaker 1: I didn't know that was a Hank Ballard song.
Speaker 3: Is because Dick Clark told him to Wow, this song
Speaker 3: is greater than the man. Butter two said, I was befuddled.
Speaker 3: I'm not sure why he was nominated.
Speaker 4: Actor KT told us that he just had like one
Speaker 4: hit that he kept trying to redo over it.
Speaker 1: Yeah, that was incredible.
Speaker 3: Joe Cocker in Butter one says, you're so beautiful up
Speaker 3: where we belong. Aren't priority songs in the history of
Speaker 3: rock and roll. You're basically voting for him as a
Speaker 3: song stylist. It's comparable to Chuby Checker and that the
Speaker 3: song slightly overshadowed the career.
Speaker 1: So he's not voting.
Speaker 3: Butter two says he sits in the Linda Ronstat type category.
Speaker 3: What his impact is I don't know.
Speaker 2: I mean, that's fair, that's fair to say he didn't
Speaker 2: have that big of an impact. I love his voice too.
Speaker 2: I love his voice.
Speaker 4: I just remember him from the Wonder Years theme song.
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, but does that get you in just having
Speaker 2: a good vie? Yeah yeah, maybe not Billy Idol. Billy
Speaker 2: Idol should be into me. Butter one, he's pop, he's punk,
Speaker 2: he's new wave. He even qualified as hair metal. If
Speaker 2: anything gets me to vote for Billy, it's a shape
Speaker 2: shifter nature. Voter two says, what do you think of
Speaker 2: eighty Silo Ax? He was huge, but this year there
Speaker 2: were other people I felt needed my vote more.
Speaker 1: Do they have a limited number of votes? Do you wonder?
Speaker 1: I don't know.
Speaker 3: Okay, Joy Division Slash New Order. You guys know I'm
Speaker 3: in on them, but I get it. I hate that
Speaker 3: they're combined, though, Yeah, Voter one says, how many, however
Speaker 3: many times they appear, I'll check the box. The combination
Speaker 3: of the two bands is sensible, it's not cheating. Voter
Speaker 3: two said it's funny that the rock Hall and System
Speaker 3: lumping them together because they're so different in terms of
Speaker 3: their sound. They are, but when you're just looking at influence,
Speaker 3: they both continue to reverberate.
Speaker 2: Man, do you guys ever watch this dude his name
Speaker 2: is JJ Blair on Instagram where he pulls up all
Speaker 2: the tracks and just bounces around songs.
Speaker 1: I stumbled upon last night.
Speaker 2: He was doing Joy Divisions level Tear Us Apart, and
Speaker 2: there is so much stuff going on in that song
Speaker 2: that I didn't hear, like intricate guitar parts like wait
Speaker 2: what really interesting and real heavy on that song.
Speaker 1: Yeah.
Speaker 2: The main thing about them too, is that Peter Hook
Speaker 2: plays bass as a melodic instrument, you know, And so
Speaker 2: it's just it just puts me in a different category.
Speaker 1: Cindy Lauper, I mean, it'd.
Speaker 2: Be hypocritical for me to say Joe Cocker and Billie
Speaker 2: Idol should be and then say that Cindy Lauper shouldn't.
Speaker 1: She was huge in the ladies.
Speaker 3: Voter one. I think the world of her. I voted
Speaker 3: for a last time and I'll do it again. Cindy
Speaker 3: is a titanic vocalist. She's a songwriter. Yes, the career
Speaker 3: gets thin after the first two albums. Yeah, but what
Speaker 3: she achieved on those albums is greatness. And the fact
Speaker 3: that she's won award shot and Egott tells you the
Speaker 3: quality of her talent.
Speaker 2: She's an incredible Her voice is incredible. I can't even
Speaker 2: begin to explain to you, guys, was before you were born.
Speaker 2: She was on MTV every thirty minutes. Da I mean
Speaker 2: that girls just want to have fun thing. Oh my god,
Speaker 2: it was everywhere. Voter two, Cindy was number one for
Speaker 2: me on this ballot.
Speaker 1: Yeah.
Speaker 3: I was upset a few years ago and she didn't
Speaker 3: get in. Everyone associates her with the eighties in her
Speaker 3: first record, but she's so much more than that, which
Speaker 3: I'm kind of like, is she more than that?
Speaker 1: I don't even know that what she did to get
Speaker 1: a Tony I don't either.
Speaker 9: Uh.
Speaker 1: Manah, I'm unfamiliar.
Speaker 4: Oh yeah, no.
Speaker 3: Voter one says, there's a snowballs chance in hell. Manah,
Speaker 3: we'll get in unless we have enough voters who understand
Speaker 3: Latin rock.
Speaker 1: Or two said, I'm not very familiar with them, but when.
Speaker 3: We talk about popular music sometimes we get stuck in
Speaker 3: certain countries. I applied the Rock and Roll Hall of
Speaker 3: Fame for saying, no, this is a rock band who
Speaker 3: is influential around the world.
Speaker 2: I would ask my homie Adrian Case out of the
Speaker 2: Black Pumas, do you think they should be in?
Speaker 1: Whatever he says, I would agree with.
Speaker 3: I would ask our engineer Ivan, I mean, they played
Speaker 3: like the American Airline Center when they're in town, you know,
Speaker 3: like they're big Oasis one. They are the turds in
Speaker 3: the punch bowl of rock and roll. I won't vote
Speaker 3: for them. I have a hard time seeing the influence
Speaker 3: Voter two though, they're so influential, almost in spite of themselves.
Speaker 3: They're massively popular in America, and people forget that. I
Speaker 3: voted them because the spectacle of them showing up would
Speaker 3: be hilarious. Liam said he would show up, really, Noel, Noel.
Speaker 1: Nol Yeah, Christmas, Christmas Gallagher. I think he would say
Speaker 1: the opposite of what Liam said. Legends. I mean, do
Speaker 1: they play stadiums that know and they're.
Speaker 3: Huge, and dude, I listened to this a couple of
Speaker 3: weeks ago, a live record of them from years ago,
Speaker 3: and it's effing awesome.
Speaker 2: It's so good, and there's a lot of music that's
Speaker 2: like this. But what I can't get beyond is like,
Speaker 2: I just know how dumb the lead singer is and
Speaker 2: the lyrics are so dumb to me, some of them,
Speaker 2: Like I mean, it's very like, yeah, I know, I
Speaker 2: know it's gas pumper guy, come back with lyrics, hold
Speaker 2: them back, But.
Speaker 1: This song is about us whatever.
Speaker 3: I want to live so as bad as though all
Speaker 3: right by want to fly, I don't want to live.
Speaker 4: Dude.
Speaker 2: I love Lenny Kravitz, and his lyrics are terrible. I
Speaker 2: get it out cast But one what took so long?
Speaker 2: No doubt, slam Dump, slam Dump.
Speaker 3: They're an act that hip hop heads and boring white
Speaker 3: people liked equally. Voter or two absolutely yes, a lot
Speaker 3: of East and West Coast hip hop. We need Southern
Speaker 3: hip hop influence there. They were genre defying and they
Speaker 3: will get in.
Speaker 1: Yeah. They're also the.
Speaker 3: Only hip hop group or a rapper you know they're
Speaker 3: gonna get in, which makes it look like a token
Speaker 3: type thing.
Speaker 2: But no, they were that that bombs over bag Dad
Speaker 2: era where they got uh.
Speaker 1: This one it sounded like earth Wind and Fire was.
Speaker 4: Also their album, that double album they released because I
Speaker 4: was high school at the time. Blow, Oh, I love Yes,
Speaker 4: I loved like every song.
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, all of that. Fifteen year old baby was
Speaker 1: like Jesus, this this is incredible.
Speaker 4: Yeah.
Speaker 1: Can't be beat a fifteen year old dude from only.
Speaker 4: You know, right, That's what I'm saying, Like I'm a
Speaker 4: little white girl crandle Yeah.
Speaker 1: Fish, Oh, Fish, let's go.
Speaker 4: Fish.
Speaker 1: I'm good voter one.
Speaker 3: If I were gonna rank this ballot, Fish should be
Speaker 3: dead last, big fat no, all the cliches apply.
Speaker 1: Hater, hater, absolutely a hater.
Speaker 2: Would you guys consider me a pretty big music fan.
Speaker 2: Do you have any Fish songs? I can name zero.
Speaker 4: Because there's so many.
Speaker 1: I can't name a single one.
Speaker 3: They're not radio band, they're not a studio band, they're
Speaker 3: not Voter two. I didn't appreciate Fish until I saw
Speaker 3: them live There You Go a few years ago. Trey
Speaker 3: inducted Genesis into the rock and roll and Fish played
Speaker 3: Watcher of the Skies. That unlocked something in my head.
Speaker 3: I realized they're not a jam band. They're a prog
Speaker 3: rock band, all right, which is I see that now.
Speaker 4: Today.
Speaker 3: He also thought that he or she thought that other
Speaker 3: people deserved it more though. So it's a popular vote
Speaker 3: for them.
Speaker 2: It's popular music, and nobody knows any of their songs
Speaker 2: unless they're just devotees and go to their shows.
Speaker 4: I just I think it's impressive that they've gone as
Speaker 4: long as they have, and they they usually don't repeat
Speaker 4: songs at any concerts.
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, never.
Speaker 2: It's impressive they could repeat songs and I wouldn't know
Speaker 2: because I don't know any of their songs.
Speaker 1: We'll go a minute later, Okay.
Speaker 3: Soundgarden and Voter one they were in the Seattle scene
Speaker 3: long before Nirvana even released an album. I'm trying to
Speaker 3: find room for them because they deserve it. Voter two
Speaker 3: said Cornell's voice is unreal. They were a classic band.
Speaker 3: So I voted for them. It's long overdue their layup.
Speaker 2: For me, the biggest layups on this whole thing are
Speaker 2: Outcast and Sound Garden.
Speaker 1: White Stripes and butter One. I love the White Stripes.
Speaker 3: I'll confess I didn't vote for them a few years
Speaker 3: ago because I thought they didn't need my vote because
Speaker 3: it would be a slam dunk. I won't make that
Speaker 3: mistake again. Jack White is a walking history of rock
Speaker 3: and roll. Meg White is an underrated drummer. She's not flashy.
Speaker 3: She was the right drummer for that band. I hope
Speaker 3: that they get in. She can overcome her stage fright
Speaker 3: and appear with Jack m That would be awesome. A
Speaker 3: voter two said, I voted for them. They single handedly
Speaker 3: kicked off so much of what was defined as rock
Speaker 3: the Strokes and then onward into all the post punk
Speaker 3: with Franz Ferdinand. Meg's drumming was so unique and the
Speaker 3: White Stripes wouldn't have worked without her. Over the years,
Speaker 3: there's been more of a reassessment of her drumming because
Speaker 3: there was so much misogyny and sexism directed toward her.
Speaker 3: People are finally saying, no, they were equals. I don't
Speaker 3: think people are saying that. They're saying that, but I
Speaker 3: think they are saying the whole ringo thing of like,
Speaker 3: not the greatest drummer, but works for this.
Speaker 2: Yeah, and also the records got better.
Speaker 1: When with that. Don't worry with that, what go ahead?
Speaker 1: Just the song? Okay, coming up nuts. Let's do a
Speaker 1: little sport, shall we. What do we have Katie? The
Speaker 1: Cowboys lost out on another wide receiver. H God kill me.
Speaker 2: He walked out the door. It's the Ben and Skin
Speaker 2: Show ninety seven point one the Eagle. Thank you for
Speaker 2: hanging out with us on a Friday. I got a
Speaker 2: great idea for you. On a Friday. If you're in Dallas,

Speaker 2: Oh my god, it's so good. Man Mexicue at its
Speaker 2: fine is so delicious. And that location at the Farmers
Speaker 2: Market is so cool. We did a show there about
Speaker 2: a month ago. Had so much fun. Great bar area,
Speaker 2: so cool. When the weather is like this, I can't
Speaker 2: imagine a better place to be Farmers Market on a Saturday.
Speaker 2: And then you make sure to hit up her Toto Barbecue.
Speaker 2: Do that tomorrow, do it tonight, and do it again tomorrow.
Speaker 2: They're also in the eight one seven in Arlington Mansfield
Speaker 2: and then the Medical District of Fort Worth as well

Speaker 2: for yourself. But right now it's time for this.
Speaker 1: It's good listeners. Here comes kt for tweets with a round.
Speaker 5: Now it's come around the sports.
Speaker 9: KTU Queens has all the sports.
Speaker 3: Yea A MAV's mien it for you in about twenty
Speaker 3: five minutes. Uh, Cowboys Today, Brandon Cooks has signed a
Speaker 3: two year deal with the Saints. Okay, I go back
Speaker 3: about two years, thirteen million dollars.
Speaker 1: That's not much.
Speaker 3: It's not much, but how much guaranteed? You know, I'm
Speaker 3: not even sure. I bet like ten psam, I was.
Speaker 3: I'm good. Moving on, we got a draft a guy.
Speaker 3: That's where we're at now. So that's happening. Michael Gallup.
Speaker 3: I saw that out of retirement signing with the Washington Commanders.
Speaker 1: Wow, so good for him. Good dude, Oh lovely dude.
Speaker 2: I just thought that the injuries had eating his lunch
Speaker 2: and oh wait, hold on, do you have how old
Speaker 2: he is?
Speaker 1: You know what, I would imagine he's twenty nine as
Speaker 1: my guess. I was going to say twenty nine, just
Speaker 1: going off of years. Twenty nine.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I bet that is the hardest sports. Take a
Speaker 2: year off and come back.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I think so. But you know he was coming
Speaker 3: back from a knee injury. So uh, you know, we'll
Speaker 3: see he's he's dealt with a lot too. He had
Speaker 3: a brother who killed himself. A lot going on, welcome
Speaker 3: back to him if he makes the team, and a
Speaker 3: lot you never know in a in CAA tournament is
Speaker 3: real quick.
Speaker 2: Robert Morris lost today. Have you been following this, Christina?
Speaker 4: Not at all? No?
Speaker 1: Why is he so big on this?
Speaker 4: I don't know?
Speaker 9: Is it? Oh?
Speaker 4: Okay, never mind?
Speaker 3: I remember yesterday, So the megachurch pastor up in Oklahoma,
Speaker 3: Robert Morris of Gateway Church turned himself in on.
Speaker 1: Child sex abuse charges.
Speaker 2: That doesn't sound very holy, but that came out the
Speaker 2: day that Robert Morris was entered into the Robert Morrise
Speaker 2: the college who has no affiliation, a small school up
Speaker 2: in Pennsylvania, no affiliation. And I'm like, man, if you
Speaker 2: search Robert Morris, the first thing you won't see is
Speaker 2: Robert Morris University, the little engine that could that snuck
Speaker 2: into the NCAA tournament.
Speaker 1: You get that jack wad.
Speaker 2: That reminds me of when Sandusky Junior College in Iowa
Speaker 2: was going into the National Junior College Championship Tournament.
Speaker 1: Terrible just got overshadowed.
Speaker 3: So the ringer did this cool thing, and it's the
Speaker 3: one hundred best sports moments of the century since two thousand, right.
Speaker 1: And I went through.
Speaker 3: And found some of these that are interesting to me,
Speaker 3: but also some of them that involved DFW okay, And
Speaker 3: I got to tell you, man, it's not a good look.
Speaker 1: Not a good.
Speaker 3: Number ninety nine the Luca trade, which you know maybe
Speaker 3: in five, ten, fifteen years that might be reevaluated on
Speaker 3: a list like this.
Speaker 4: So this isn't best sports moment.
Speaker 1: This is well there.
Speaker 3: The criteria is a lot of things, the wow factor
Speaker 3: that you know, the shock of it, the enjoyment, how
Speaker 3: much was it talked about?
Speaker 1: You know, it's all blessings. So what is the overarching
Speaker 1: thing the one hundred most what best sports moments of
Speaker 1: the century? Best sports moments?
Speaker 4: Yeah? See this, I mean this would be best for
Speaker 4: Lakers fans.
Speaker 3: I think I think for NBA fans, I think there's
Speaker 3: a lot of fodder. Sure, a lot of things to
Speaker 3: talk about, so much of it is just shock. And
Speaker 3: what they did too on a lot of these is
Speaker 3: they put how would you explain this to someone who
Speaker 3: doesn't follow sports?
Speaker 1: Which I thought was really good?
Speaker 2: Man, Did I tell you what Popshalda what he described
Speaker 2: it as?
Speaker 1: No, he.
Speaker 2: Compared the Luca trade to the American evacuation of Afghanistan.
Speaker 1: Oh, well, you know that's deeper than mine.
Speaker 2: And I sat there and I started thinking about as like,
Speaker 2: this is an amazing analogy that I would never come.
Speaker 3: Up with, but that is way better than mine because
Speaker 3: mine was and I get I got a giggle in
Speaker 3: the household from it was, uh, it's like if you know,
Speaker 3: like I really like my neighbor's refrigerator, and it was like, hey,
Speaker 3: do you want my car?
Speaker 1: I played well in this room too.
Speaker 4: Okay, good maybe, especially if you have some like super
Speaker 4: expensive car.
Speaker 3: God, my refrigerators makes that it's got this noisy thing.
Speaker 3: I have to go slam the freezer to get it's me.
Speaker 1: It's a freezer that sucks, but mind yeah.
Speaker 4: Number seventy seven household Turner.
Speaker 1: The des didn't catch it. Game sucks.
Speaker 4: What is happening?
Speaker 3: Well, there the timing, you know, influential, big time, you
Speaker 3: know what, But who is this great for?
Speaker 1: I mean, it was terrible for our buddy.
Speaker 4: Well maybe people just hate us, right, people just hate
Speaker 4: They just hate the Metroplex and Dallas Cowboys fans. They're like,
Speaker 4: so good, guys.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I think it's just the idea of this thing happened,
Speaker 3: and it's good if you're it's just like a crazy
Speaker 3: sports thing that happened.
Speaker 2: Yeah, number seventy three. So it's the craziest sports moments.
Speaker 4: Now, what is this? When Dirk retired?
Speaker 2: No should have made it that last times a minute
Speaker 2: two thousand and seven loss to the Golden State Warriors.
Speaker 3: Seventy three Scottie chef were arrested, okay, and then bails
Speaker 3: himself out and shoots five hunder in the afternoon.
Speaker 2: I need to try to get with the people at
Speaker 2: the Ringer and understand what the adjective best means to them.
Speaker 3: Yeah, it's interesting, Look, don't focus on that so much.
Speaker 3: Number one OJ Number seventy one. David Freese puts Saint
Speaker 3: Louis on his back.
Speaker 1: Why what are we doing.
Speaker 6: Well.
Speaker 1: If you're a Cardinals fan, it's a great moment. Every
Speaker 1: moment on this list is about our pain. This one's not.
Speaker 1: Number sixty nine.
Speaker 3: A drive into Deep Left by Castianos after playby I
Speaker 3: announcer Tom Brenneman on air, while thinking he's off air,
Speaker 3: called the city of Kansas City weirdly, Oh, I thought
Speaker 3: it was San Francisco too, And maybe they're talking about
Speaker 3: I think it was San Francisco.
Speaker 1: That was a home game in Cincinnati.
Speaker 2: No I know, but I think they were going to
Speaker 2: out to I think that a series coming up with
Speaker 2: San Francisco.
Speaker 1: And he was going in on the city at the
Speaker 1: f capital.
Speaker 3: Yeah Jesus, and he said it, yeah, get your theory
Speaker 3: on how harsh you say something?
Speaker 1: Yes matters?
Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean, oh boy, nobody has ever emphasized the
Speaker 2: G at the edge of that word.
Speaker 1: That hard.
Speaker 4: God. And then the silence after because you know what,
Speaker 4: producers in his ear saying hey, oh, your mic is hot.
Speaker 2: Your mic is hot, and then he's going undone, They've
Speaker 2: all discovered what I'm really about.
Speaker 3: Yeah, and then Costiano says he always does, and then
Speaker 3: come on, dude.
Speaker 1: So good all right?
Speaker 3: Number sixty one I have an audio component, Christina. Yeah,
Speaker 3: I didn't think bowling would be on here.
Speaker 9: Okay, okay, strike exclaim it, strike exclaim it.
Speaker 1: That's so good.
Speaker 4: As who you are?
Speaker 1: Who do you think you are?
Speaker 3: I am?
Speaker 2: There's so many amazing moments in that where you're not
Speaker 2: sure who he's talking to.
Speaker 4: You doubted me?
Speaker 1: Are you gonna hang me? It's like no one doubted
Speaker 1: you aren't the best bowler.
Speaker 4: It's like, dude, like five people are here watching you.
Speaker 2: Man, he's asking himself if he's kidding himself, who do
Speaker 2: you think you are?
Speaker 1: I am? His veins are popping out of his head.
Speaker 1: I love the passion. It's so good. It really does
Speaker 1: feel like Kingpin number fifty. Yeah, Kingpin. Have you seen
Speaker 1: king Pin?
Speaker 7: Christina?
Speaker 1: Good? Oh you haven't, Oh you would love Kingpin. It's great.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean, I'm it's the tone of what their
Speaker 2: movies are, like. Bill Murray is amazing, Woody's amazing.
Speaker 1: It's it's so good.
Speaker 3: Randy Quaid's amazing. Yeah, I found out thing. It's like
Speaker 3: it's like they take twenty five movies from every year
Speaker 3: since two thousand, this is New York Times whatever, and
Speaker 3: it's like these were our favorite movies, and I'm just
Speaker 3: thinking about going through there and just kind of check
Speaker 3: marking the ones I haven't seen, okay.
Speaker 1: And then man, I'm gonna whittle it down even more
Speaker 1: than that because.
Speaker 3: I the one that really I think is bothering me
Speaker 3: that everyone says I need to see is outside of
Speaker 3: Booge Knights is either No Country for Old Men or
Speaker 3: there will be blood.
Speaker 2: So for my personal taste, no Country for Old Men
Speaker 2: old men is better than there will be blood. There
Speaker 2: will be blood is great, but it's a hall like
Speaker 2: it's kind of like the brutalist.
Speaker 3: Do you want to kind of like do some ikia
Speaker 3: furniture work while you're watching it to get through it?
Speaker 2: You're you're basically you're lugging something up a hill. Oh,
Speaker 2: it's a lot of work, but it's it's it's an
Speaker 2: And do you know who did the soundtrack on it?
Speaker 1: Uh, Steve No, Johnny Greenwood? Have Johnny green Wood, son
Speaker 1: of a Bitch. Yeah, Now I'm in.
Speaker 2: It's a great movie, but you need to you know,
Speaker 2: your soul will not feel invigorated.
Speaker 4: I never does some of my favorite kind of movie.
Speaker 1: It never does.
Speaker 2: No Country for Old Men is It's least similar tonally,
Speaker 2: but it's just like so dynamic cool.
Speaker 4: I remember attempting to watch one of those and there
Speaker 4: was literally no dialogue for like ten to fifty. There will
Speaker 4: be blood, okay, and so I tapped out castaway fat.
Speaker 2: But seriously, Christina, you know, sent it the other day
Speaker 2: and I posted on the Eagle account when Green Day
Speaker 2: did the exact speech that Dirk Diggler did when he
Speaker 2: won the Porn Award. They did the exact speech word
Speaker 2: for word, and I never knew that bit. And I'm
Speaker 2: sitting there watching this, going, how have Katie and Christina
Speaker 2: not seen Boogie Knights because we're just you know, we're
Speaker 2: sheltered Jurassic Park.
Speaker 3: I'll watch not I actually went to Jurassic Park this weekend.
Speaker 3: Come here, Randy and kills a bird number fifty amazing,
Speaker 3: kind of like when I watched that guy kill a
Speaker 3: bird off the T box at Lakewood Country Club. Skin
Speaker 3: twenty eight, Ye twenty eight, Jose Bautista bat flip against
Speaker 3: the Rangers. Now do you remember? Do you remember how
Speaker 3: this went down? Though it was a real live Donny Brook. No,
Speaker 3: it was game five of that series of series Tagic two,
Speaker 3: The Winter advances in Toronto, and we were waiting because
Speaker 3: it was a day game, and we were sitting there going, okay,
Speaker 3: playoff ratings and we're going the air when this game's over,
Speaker 3: so it wants to go to extra innings.
Speaker 1: Great, whatever happens here.
Speaker 3: But what happened is the catcher for the Blue Jays
Speaker 3: and the top of the fifth is throwing the ball
Speaker 3: back to the pitcher and it hit choose bat and
Speaker 3: Elvis was on third base because he's just throwing the
Speaker 3: ball back to the picture and the ball ricochets off
Speaker 3: to the dugout and Elvis was on third and scored. Oh,
Speaker 3: and everyone's like, that's not illegal, legal even though it is.
Speaker 3: The catcher shouldn't have thrown it in to choose bat.
Speaker 3: And then the fans start throwing trash on the field
Speaker 3: and there's a big delay. So the crowd is louder
Speaker 3: than they've ever been. As we go to the bottom
Speaker 3: of the fifth and the Rangers have a one run lead.
Speaker 3: I did not remember that ground ball to Elvis. He
Speaker 3: fumbles it. Okay, guy gets on the next play ground
Speaker 3: ball to Mitch Moreland. Mitch Moreland throws it to second
Speaker 3: Elvis bobbles it, and then you have runners on first
Speaker 3: and second, ground ball to Beltray Belchray throws it to
Speaker 3: Elvis and Elvis fumbles that one at second.
Speaker 1: Bay's three plays in a row where Elvis had a misplay.
Speaker 3: Yeah, and then Bautista comes in and hits a three
Speaker 3: run home run and he flips the bat. Yep, but
Speaker 3: I forgot about the chain of events and it is
Speaker 3: like the wildest ending of baseball ever ever.
Speaker 2: God, Elvis, I remember all that we were at a bar.
Speaker 1: Weren't we were we?
Speaker 5: Uh?
Speaker 3: I think we were at the Pluckers. Oh, we were
Speaker 3: pluckers to that one. Okay, there's that. And then twenty
Speaker 3: seven the Odell Beckham catch on Brandon Carr. Oh my god, Yes,
Speaker 3: there's that list of stuff. So that was good, dude.
Speaker 1: I enjoyed that. Fine.
Speaker 4: It didn't start out great, but it ended well.
Speaker 1: Christina, give Kat a compliment. Good job Kat, she did
Speaker 1: before that.
Speaker 4: Man, take two days off.
Speaker 2: Hey man, yeah, you can come back on Monday. Uh,
Speaker 2: coming up next? What's in the weekday update?

Speaker 2: All the talk is that. Okay, so we've talked about this.
Speaker 2: Kessler Edwards is playing his last game as a Maverick tonight.
Speaker 2: I'm assuming he's going to play night. Then he doesn't
Speaker 2: have any more eligibility left, so they still have games
Speaker 2: to play. We'll see how this whole thing plays out.
Speaker 2: But that's why you're hearing chatter about possibly forfeiting.
Speaker 1: Games next week.
Speaker 2: I was just going record, there's no way the NBA
Speaker 2: allows a team to forfeit a game in advance. It
Speaker 2: is not happening. It would cost way too many millions
Speaker 2: of dollars they would give them a special exemption. I'm
Speaker 2: hoping Kessler Edwards can play more than just tonight, but
Speaker 2: if this is his last game, thank you Kessler for
Speaker 2: everything you did for the Mavericks. You bawled your ass off,
Speaker 2: dude playing you're a small forward, playing center and power forward.

Speaker 5: featuring veteran news anchor kt fun tweets. Here are the
Speaker 5: important stories he's currently tracking from around the world.
Speaker 1: Well, so let the Downer one lead off and then
Speaker 1: we'll have some fun.
Speaker 3: Okay, but a friend of ours and a guy who's
Speaker 3: been a fixed dure in the Dallas music scene since
Speaker 3: the you know, late nineties, early two thousands. Chris Penn,
Speaker 3: who's a co owner of Good Records, suffered a very,
Speaker 3: very bad injury earlier in the week. He was working
Speaker 3: at Good Records, which he's a co owner of. It's
Speaker 3: in Garland East, Dallas area.
Speaker 7: Uh.
Speaker 1: Yeah, we used to be on Greenville Avenue. He's out
Speaker 1: there off Garland Road.
Speaker 2: Now they actually have an in store with Charlie Crockett
Speaker 2: two scheduled for tomorrow.
Speaker 1: Wow.
Speaker 3: And he's the he's the guy who's stringing all that
Speaker 3: together man, and he's a hard worker. He's been managing
Speaker 3: Tripping Daisy and the Polyphonic Spree for all these years.
Speaker 1: Everybody loves Crispin. He's just the nicest.
Speaker 3: Guy ever too. Him and love his wife Jennifer, have
Speaker 3: known her for a long time as well. And uh,
Speaker 3: Tim de Lauter, of the elite singer of Tripping Daisy
Speaker 3: and the Polyphonic Spree, put out a big Instagram post
Speaker 3: just kind of letting everyone know what's going on. So
Speaker 3: Chris was working and he was putting up some signage
Speaker 3: and obviously its real windy out there.
Speaker 1: I don't know if that had to do.
Speaker 3: With it, but basically he was hanging advertising details in
Speaker 3: the front window and he fell and he landed directly
Speaker 3: on his back. Now he's had back issues and it's
Speaker 3: aggravated some spinal issues that he has had, and he
Speaker 3: is paralyzed all right. I don't know if there's an
Speaker 3: update today, but as of this yesterday, paralyzed from the
Speaker 3: neck down.
Speaker 2: When when Tim I saw a post, probably the poster
Speaker 2: you're looking at the weight and there's a very long
Speaker 2: name for the condition he has, and I probably should
Speaker 2: have taken the time to google it, but I'm pretty
Speaker 2: sure that's the same condition that ended Michael Irvin's playing career.
Speaker 3: Kilosing spondylitis and ossification. Yeah, it's it's like, uh, hey,
Speaker 3: he crushed over here. It's like a narrowing of the
Speaker 3: spinal column.
Speaker 2: And I think I'm almost positive that's why Michael Irvin
Speaker 2: had to retire from the NFL.
Speaker 3: Because, yeah, it was spinal cord I remember that in
Speaker 3: Philadelphia it's spinal cord injury.
Speaker 1: This bruised his spinal cord.
Speaker 3: Basically, the family set up a you know, a GoFundMe
Speaker 3: and all that. I know, I've posted about it, and
Speaker 3: I've seen some of our friends post about it on
Speaker 3: you know, Twitter and Instagram and all that. I'm at
Speaker 3: kt fun tweets if you want to get down on that.
Speaker 2: Yeah, is it currently on your story? It was on
Speaker 2: my Instagram story. I tweeted about it this morning as well,
Speaker 2: so you can see that there. I think like, uh,
Speaker 2: we should probably take Tim's post and put it on
Speaker 2: the Eagles story night at some point, ye an Eagle
Speaker 2: story so that people you know, Because again, if you're
Speaker 2: a part of the music scene, you're a part of
Speaker 2: the music scene, no matter what kind of music you like.
Speaker 2: And if you're a rock fan, they got tons of
Speaker 2: great rock records over at Good Records, and Chrispin is
Speaker 2: a big, a big part of that. And even if
Speaker 2: you just donate twenty five dollars, there's so many people
Speaker 2: that are gonna do it.
Speaker 1: It's gonna be huge for him, Chris and Jennifer. They
Speaker 1: got three kiddos. Chris a huge MAVs fan too.
Speaker 3: Of course, I'm sure it might hit you up every
Speaker 3: now and then about stuff when it was the mass
Speaker 3: So yeah, not good. It's terrible to see that last night,
Speaker 3: but trying to get the word out for that. A
Speaker 3: lot going on. I mean he's helping string together tripping days.
Speaker 3: He's gonna come back and go on tour and do
Speaker 3: a record and all that, or I start talking about
Speaker 3: doing that stuff. I mean, did he got Alice Cooper
Speaker 3: and his crew back together? There is a story there.
Speaker 3: I don't fully know all the details of it. But
Speaker 3: he was hosting a Alice Cooper like like live at
Speaker 3: Good Records a couple of years ago. And uh so,
Speaker 3: I don't know, like I think he did a movie
Speaker 3: or a documentary type thing.
Speaker 1: Wow.
Speaker 3: So I mean, dude, Chris has got his hands in
Speaker 3: a lot of things. He's a character. And I mean
Speaker 3: that in a good way.
Speaker 1: I don't mean no he is.
Speaker 3: I mean, dude, you know the Polyphonic Christmas Show every year,
Speaker 3: he's the guy you'll see on a ladder up there,
Speaker 3: just about to clip the thing to make the balloons
Speaker 3: fall on all the kids. Like he's just he's kind
Speaker 3: of music Santa Claus and uh yeah, so it's a
Speaker 3: bummer and uh so go support Chriz if you there's
Speaker 3: that story. Man, I saw this. My question is genius
Speaker 3: or idiot? Okay, I'll let you guys, are those things
Speaker 3: mutually exclusive? I don't know, all right, I let you
Speaker 3: guys be the judge. We got a Madison County, Tennessee,
Speaker 3: which there might be a red flag. Four suspects accused
Speaker 3: of robbing a convenience store using an unusual weapon. And
Speaker 3: he guesses dyl I was gonna say, vibrator, Yeah close, Oh, pythons.
Speaker 1: Okay, what world are you involved in?
Speaker 3: Cops have obtained surveillance footage showing the suspects walk into
Speaker 3: the convenience store. It's four of them, and they're holding
Speaker 3: two ball pythons. At one point, one of the suspects
Speaker 3: puts one of the snakes on the counter while another
Speaker 3: one dangled a second one over the counter, and the
Speaker 3: cashiers freaked out and moving away from the area. They
Speaker 3: get into the cash ear box. Now they only got
Speaker 3: like four hundred dollars. But the point is, you know,
Speaker 3: that's a little different than going in with the gun. Okay,
Speaker 3: but going in with the snake.
Speaker 1: I have a question, don't like most people have a gun?
Speaker 3: Now, Well, yeah you want. If you want aggravated assault charges,
Speaker 3: go ahead, bud.
Speaker 2: But if you come in with a snake and be like, Oh,
Speaker 2: you brought a snake to a gunfight, then you shoot
Speaker 2: the snake.
Speaker 1: Oh you said the cashiers can't.
Speaker 4: Yes, they probably most are.
Speaker 1: I would think most cashiers or arm.
Speaker 3: Never once gone to a convenience store. Man, they're on
Speaker 3: in and thought that guy's packing. I recently watched I
Speaker 3: recently rewatched. Uh.
Speaker 2: There's a whole documentary about the history of Watts and
Speaker 2: what happened first with the watch rights, but then the
Speaker 2: Rodney King and what a lot of people forget. There
Speaker 2: is a story right after Rodney King where a sixteen
Speaker 2: year old African American teenager went into a store and
Speaker 2: the layers like, you're stealing something.
Speaker 1: She's like, no, I'm not.
Speaker 2: She turned around and walked out, and the cashiers shot
Speaker 2: her in the back and killed her and got off.
Speaker 1: Oh yeah. So what I'm saying.
Speaker 2: Is, if you work in a place where you get
Speaker 2: stuck up, you know a lot, there's a lot of
Speaker 2: stick ups.
Speaker 1: Yeah, probably arm yourself.
Speaker 4: Yeah. So I would say they're not smart, but creative.
Speaker 4: Not smart because the other person could have had a
Speaker 4: gun and just shot them. And two, there's only four
Speaker 4: hundred bucks in that thing.
Speaker 1: Yeah, like what are you doing?
Speaker 4: Yeah?
Speaker 1: I've been early in the day.
Speaker 4: There's cameras freaking everywhere. You're so dumb, it's very dumb.
Speaker 2: I think we're at a time and you know, in
Speaker 2: the history of capitalism where people aren't gonna have cash
Speaker 2: at places.
Speaker 1: Unless it's a bank.
Speaker 2: Yeah, maybe, like so many people use debit cards and
Speaker 2: credit card.
Speaker 1: You know, two quick science stores for you. Okay.
Speaker 3: The space station astronauts that we reported on heavily earlier
Speaker 3: in the week they returned. What we've learned today is
Speaker 3: they were scowed by the man.
Speaker 1: They were only getting five dollars a day.
Speaker 3: What now, there's salaries one hundred and fifty k a year,
Speaker 3: but they were only getting five dollars a day for
Speaker 3: the two hundred and eighty five days they were trapped
Speaker 3: on the International Space Station.
Speaker 1: That's not a good deal.
Speaker 4: There's a lawsuit coming.
Speaker 3: That's a thousand, that's like fifteen, that's terrible. And that's well,
Speaker 3: we got their meals and lodging and their transportation.
Speaker 4: Yeah, but our lives were in danger for longer than
Speaker 4: they were supposed to be.
Speaker 3: And also in AI news, we've determined, due to a
Speaker 3: new study that AI doesn't know how to tell time.
Speaker 3: It's confused by the minute and hour hand on a clock.
Speaker 3: He I doesn't know how to do that.
Speaker 1: It needs a digital clock.
Speaker 3: So if you want to feel better than the robots
Speaker 3: that are going to take us over, just know that
Speaker 3: you can tell time and they can't.
Speaker 1: That your struggle with it too. Yeah, okay, there's a
Speaker 1: science update from KT
