I also love that Sean went 32 00:01:22,719 --> 00:01:26,239 first because he's the shyest member. Oh no kidding, it's exciting. 33 00:01:26,480 --> 00:01:27,640 Speaker 5: Just throw me into the deep end. 34 00:01:28,959 --> 00:01:31,719 Speaker 2: Nothing wrong with that. So what now? So you're on 35 00:01:31,760 --> 00:01:34,799 a big national tour, right you've been. Uh, it looks 36 00:01:34,799 --> 00:01:36,480 like you play a lot of shows from what I 37 00:01:36,519 --> 00:01:37,040 saw online. 38 00:01:37,040 --> 00:01:41,519 Speaker 1: You know, we give that impression. No, this is just 39 00:01:41,560 --> 00:01:42,480 a weekend thing, man. 40 00:01:42,640 --> 00:01:43,719 Speaker 2: Oh yeah, yeah. 41 00:01:43,719 --> 00:01:46,079 Speaker 1: We all have full time jobs and families, so like 42 00:01:46,280 --> 00:01:48,840 on the weekends sometimes we get real squirrely and we're like, 43 00:01:48,920 --> 00:01:51,719 let's drive as far as possible. Oh okay, okay, And 44 00:01:52,239 --> 00:01:55,079 that's what we did this weekend. We uh, yesterday we 45 00:01:55,079 --> 00:01:58,760 played in Boston, and tonight we're playing in western Massachusetts. 46 00:01:58,840 --> 00:02:02,239 Speaker 2: In Westfield, Okay, excellent, excellent. Yeah, Because I was looking 47 00:02:02,280 --> 00:02:04,120 at at your stuff online, it looks like you've like, 48 00:02:04,200 --> 00:02:06,000 how how far have you gone with with this? As 49 00:02:06,040 --> 00:02:08,400 far as shows, like, how how far have you traveled? 50 00:02:08,439 --> 00:02:09,960 Speaker 5: I think the farthest is Nashville? 51 00:02:10,039 --> 00:02:13,800 Speaker 3: Yeah, nice, Okay, sure, which is a ton of fun. 52 00:02:13,960 --> 00:02:17,120 Speaker 2: Yeah. Yeah, it's funny because people have misconceptions about Nashville. 53 00:02:17,159 --> 00:02:18,840 They think it's, you know, like it's all just country 54 00:02:18,879 --> 00:02:21,599 music and cowboy boots and everything. But obviously, I mean, 55 00:02:21,719 --> 00:02:24,159 you know, Jersey Calling played there, so there's there's a 56 00:02:24,199 --> 00:02:26,680 market for a lot of different kinds of stuff overall. 57 00:02:26,680 --> 00:02:27,919 Speaker 5: It's just it's a music city. 58 00:02:28,039 --> 00:02:30,360 Speaker 2: Yeah, exactly, exactly. Yeah, we played. 59 00:02:30,479 --> 00:02:32,919 Speaker 1: We played with some pretty pretty red punk bands down there, 60 00:02:33,240 --> 00:02:37,639 Graveyard Kids, and uh, oh my god, why did I 61 00:02:37,680 --> 00:02:43,599 Why did I put myself out there living living with Okay, 62 00:02:46,159 --> 00:02:47,199 there we go, we got there. 63 00:02:47,680 --> 00:02:47,879 Speaker 2: Yeah. 64 00:02:48,000 --> 00:02:48,800 Speaker 1: Yeah. 65 00:02:48,879 --> 00:02:51,240 Speaker 2: How long has this band existed? How long has Jersey 66 00:02:51,280 --> 00:02:52,039 Calling been around? 67 00:02:52,759 --> 00:02:54,280 Speaker 1: That's a complicated question, Matt. 68 00:02:55,159 --> 00:02:57,479 Speaker 2: We have we have we have time. We have time, 69 00:02:57,599 --> 00:02:57,960 all right. 70 00:02:58,159 --> 00:03:02,120 Speaker 1: So so the the shortest dancer I can give is that, 71 00:03:02,159 --> 00:03:04,400 like we started when we were like I don't know, 72 00:03:04,560 --> 00:03:08,400 nineteen or twenty. Back in two thousand and two, we 73 00:03:08,439 --> 00:03:12,599 played as a band. We played pretty much locally exclusively 74 00:03:13,560 --> 00:03:17,280 for like three years, and then after that we like 75 00:03:17,400 --> 00:03:19,719 kind of, you know, adult life got in the way. 76 00:03:19,800 --> 00:03:24,599 We all started like focusing on getting a meaningful job, 77 00:03:25,759 --> 00:03:30,479 starting starting a family and all that stuff. And then 78 00:03:31,560 --> 00:03:34,319 in twenty twenty, when the pandemic hit, I wrote a 79 00:03:34,360 --> 00:03:37,759 bunch of new songs and I called up Sean and Randy, 80 00:03:38,080 --> 00:03:41,680 and Randy's our bass player, he's not with us today, 81 00:03:41,919 --> 00:03:44,719 and they said that they wanted to play them like 82 00:03:44,759 --> 00:03:47,479 they would be down to record them with me. And 83 00:03:47,560 --> 00:03:50,280 right around that same time, I met Victoria here and 84 00:03:51,000 --> 00:03:53,919 we started dating, and I thought I would try to 85 00:03:53,960 --> 00:03:57,560 impress her with my singing and guitar playing, and then 86 00:03:57,599 --> 00:04:02,919 I heard her sing and I was like, ah, I 87 00:04:03,000 --> 00:04:08,599 have completely overestimated my ability. Oh no, oh, that's funny. Yeah, yeah. 88 00:04:08,639 --> 00:04:10,280 Speaker 4: I was excited for you to come over. And then 89 00:04:10,280 --> 00:04:12,000 when you brought your guitar, I'm like, cool, we'll both 90 00:04:12,039 --> 00:04:15,400 sing together. I already knew because I watched you on Facebook, 91 00:04:15,479 --> 00:04:18,519 because like you, he had like this live concert series 92 00:04:18,519 --> 00:04:21,199 like he was doing for twenty twenty sold that, so 93 00:04:21,240 --> 00:04:22,279 I knew you. 94 00:04:21,920 --> 00:04:22,879 Speaker 1: You knew you were better? 95 00:04:23,079 --> 00:04:26,439 Speaker 4: No, well I knew you could, and so I was excited. 96 00:04:26,480 --> 00:04:29,120 I'm like, yeah, let's hang out and yeah. So the 97 00:04:29,120 --> 00:04:31,279 rest is history, man, Yeah yeah. 98 00:04:31,319 --> 00:04:33,800 Speaker 1: Yeah, so yeah. Since twenty twenty we've been playing pretty 99 00:04:33,879 --> 00:04:38,720 pretty much NonStop. In twenty twenty three was when our 100 00:04:38,759 --> 00:04:42,480 newest member, John, our drummer, came on and he and 101 00:04:42,600 --> 00:04:45,920 Randy are together at the hotel room now taking care 102 00:04:45,959 --> 00:04:47,879 of a taking care of a mishap from earlier. 103 00:04:48,040 --> 00:04:50,160 Speaker 2: Oh I got you, yeah, I got yeah. 104 00:04:50,040 --> 00:04:54,000 Speaker 4: Travels tough man. It is especially earlier. It's just it's 105 00:04:54,040 --> 00:04:55,000 early morning. 106 00:04:55,120 --> 00:05:01,319 Speaker 2: Yeah, the morning, Yeah, it is. It is. So, uh 107 00:05:01,800 --> 00:05:04,199 is your drummer? What's his name? 108 00:05:04,480 --> 00:05:04,720 Speaker 1: John? 109 00:05:04,879 --> 00:05:08,040 Speaker 2: John? Is he? There's been a trend on the show recently, 110 00:05:08,120 --> 00:05:09,920 well at least last couple of years, especially with with 111 00:05:09,959 --> 00:05:11,959 everybody who comes on. Everybody's drummer is in like ten 112 00:05:11,959 --> 00:05:13,959 different bands? Is John? And ten different bands? 113 00:05:14,079 --> 00:05:14,279 Speaker 6: Yeah? 114 00:05:15,800 --> 00:05:17,800 Speaker 1: I mean I I assume he's in the band that 115 00:05:17,959 --> 00:05:21,160 just left. I don't actually. 116 00:05:20,800 --> 00:05:23,279 Speaker 2: No, oh yeah, that's funny. 117 00:05:23,959 --> 00:05:25,920 Speaker 1: That could be why he left. He's like, oh, I 118 00:05:25,959 --> 00:05:29,800 got to go back to the hotel room. I'm like, okay, John, Yeah, 119 00:05:29,319 --> 00:05:31,680 he's going to his next his next gig with the 120 00:05:31,720 --> 00:05:32,120 other band. 121 00:05:33,000 --> 00:05:36,040 Speaker 2: Yeahs, yeah, it's amazing. And you know, bass players can 122 00:05:36,079 --> 00:05:39,399 be hard to come by too, But but drummers especially, 123 00:05:39,519 --> 00:05:42,560 like everybody's everybody's drummers in all kinds of different bands. 124 00:05:43,319 --> 00:05:46,680 Speaker 1: Yeah, man, guitarist are a diamond dozen. Like everyone plays guitar. 125 00:05:46,800 --> 00:05:48,800 Speaker 2: It is true. I mean as a bass player, I 126 00:05:48,839 --> 00:05:51,480 say that, you know, no offense, but no, yeah, no, 127 00:05:51,519 --> 00:05:54,879 but it is true. Yeah, guitar players are everywhere. Yeah, yeah, 128 00:05:54,920 --> 00:05:56,480 what do you what do you think it is with drummers? 129 00:05:56,519 --> 00:05:57,959 Why are drummers so hard to Uh? 130 00:05:58,759 --> 00:06:01,720 Speaker 1: Have you ever tried to play drums? No, it's it's 131 00:06:01,759 --> 00:06:02,360 so hard. 132 00:06:02,480 --> 00:06:04,199 Speaker 2: Well, yeah, because you got to use all four of 133 00:06:04,199 --> 00:06:05,560 your limbs. That looks like too much for me. 134 00:06:05,680 --> 00:06:08,600 Speaker 1: Yeah, it's way too much. I can't coordinate my feet 135 00:06:08,600 --> 00:06:09,319 with my hands like that. 136 00:06:09,920 --> 00:06:12,439 Speaker 4: No, my brain and my feet have never communicated properly. 137 00:06:12,560 --> 00:06:12,759 Speaker 1: Yeah. 138 00:06:12,959 --> 00:06:13,199 Speaker 2: Yeah. 139 00:06:13,560 --> 00:06:14,839 Speaker 3: And you know what I think it is as the 140 00:06:14,920 --> 00:06:18,519 parents of a drummer, it's a very special person that 141 00:06:18,560 --> 00:06:20,199 allows their kid to bring a drum set. 142 00:06:20,040 --> 00:06:24,199 Speaker 2: Into the house. And that's that's always. Yeah. 143 00:06:24,519 --> 00:06:26,920 Speaker 3: And so just there are not a lot of people 144 00:06:26,959 --> 00:06:30,040 that get into it super early, and and that's why 145 00:06:30,079 --> 00:06:31,959 they're in such high demand. I tell my kid all 146 00:06:32,040 --> 00:06:34,079 the time, you will always have work if you stick 147 00:06:34,120 --> 00:06:34,439 with us. 148 00:06:34,560 --> 00:06:37,639 Speaker 2: Yeah yeah, now that makes sense. Yeah, that and maybe 149 00:06:37,680 --> 00:06:40,720 the tuba. You don't necessarily want your house either, right. 150 00:06:42,240 --> 00:06:44,360 Speaker 4: Unless you're a mummer, like maybe. 151 00:06:44,120 --> 00:06:46,600 Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, the clarinet anything. 152 00:06:47,360 --> 00:06:49,360 Speaker 1: I feel like the clarinet is way more annoying because 153 00:06:49,360 --> 00:06:53,120 you get that squeaky sound when they're learning. It's like 154 00:06:53,199 --> 00:06:54,160 nails on a chalkboard. 155 00:06:54,240 --> 00:06:55,240 Speaker 4: And my sister did that. 156 00:06:55,439 --> 00:07:00,920 Speaker 1: She Yeah, any read in strum and you're gonna get 157 00:07:00,920 --> 00:07:02,279 that squeak. Yeah. 158 00:07:02,360 --> 00:07:06,439 Speaker 2: Yeah. Now I'm curious about the name Jersey Calling. Uh what? 159 00:07:06,519 --> 00:07:09,399 I assume it has something to do with New Jersey, 160 00:07:09,600 --> 00:07:10,959 but but I don't know. Maybe not. 161 00:07:11,680 --> 00:07:12,720 Speaker 1: We're from Oklahoma. 162 00:07:13,040 --> 00:07:15,199 Speaker 2: No, i'd be a great twist. 163 00:07:17,959 --> 00:07:21,639 Speaker 1: So when when we when we formed the band, Sean 164 00:07:21,680 --> 00:07:23,519 and I were listening to a lot of the Clash 165 00:07:23,639 --> 00:07:27,720 and so we thought the Jersey Calling would be a 166 00:07:27,720 --> 00:07:30,040 cooler band name than the band that we were in 167 00:07:30,160 --> 00:07:32,920 at the time, which was called Burn Kate. 168 00:07:34,199 --> 00:07:36,720 Speaker 5: Oh misbuilled a lot as Burnt Kate. 169 00:07:36,800 --> 00:07:39,199 Speaker 2: Oh my god, yeah yeah. 170 00:07:39,439 --> 00:07:44,240 Speaker 1: Burning Burning Kate, Burning Cake. Yeah, it was No one 171 00:07:44,279 --> 00:07:45,040 ever got the name right. 172 00:07:45,120 --> 00:07:46,839 Speaker 2: Well, now I'm curious where that name came from. 173 00:07:46,839 --> 00:07:48,959 Speaker 1: What was that about, Sean? Why don't you take this one? 174 00:07:49,079 --> 00:07:49,199 Speaker 7: Oh? 175 00:07:49,240 --> 00:07:53,959 Speaker 3: Yeah, my my sister suggested. My sister was Kate, and 176 00:07:54,199 --> 00:07:59,240 uh she told us that we were gonna suck. I 177 00:07:59,279 --> 00:08:01,680 forget exactly what was said in response, and she said, well, 178 00:08:01,680 --> 00:08:03,519 why don't you just call the band burn Kate? Oh? 179 00:08:03,560 --> 00:08:06,720 Speaker 5: And it stuck because we were what seventeen at the time. 180 00:08:06,879 --> 00:08:09,240 Speaker 1: Yeah. Yeah, it was you know, a little aggressive back 181 00:08:09,279 --> 00:08:13,120 and forth sibling rivalry. Yeah, thing, that's cool, good. 182 00:08:13,000 --> 00:08:20,079 Speaker 2: Time, all right. So then so Jersey calling, so it 183 00:08:20,199 --> 00:08:22,000 just sounded it just sounded cool, and. 184 00:08:22,040 --> 00:08:24,360 Speaker 5: It sounded cool, and I think we just kind of 185 00:08:24,600 --> 00:08:25,120 ran with it. 186 00:08:25,360 --> 00:08:28,879 Speaker 3: Yeah, like we I think we made stickers and it 187 00:08:28,959 --> 00:08:29,720 just kind of stuck from me. 188 00:08:29,800 --> 00:08:30,000 Speaker 8: Yeah. 189 00:08:30,000 --> 00:08:32,519 Speaker 1: Once we had like T shirts and stickers made, We're like, 190 00:08:32,519 --> 00:08:34,720 all right, we're stuck with this now. Yeah, yep. 191 00:08:35,440 --> 00:08:38,320 Speaker 2: I'm also so I'm curious about the lyrical themes in 192 00:08:38,360 --> 00:08:41,679 your songs. It seems like there's there's a slight political bent. 193 00:08:41,799 --> 00:08:45,120 Maybe I don't know. You can never be sure because 194 00:08:45,240 --> 00:08:47,320 you know, it's it's kind of ambiguous, so maybe maybe 195 00:08:47,320 --> 00:08:49,200 maybe not. Maybe I'm reading into it. I don't know, 196 00:08:49,240 --> 00:08:53,000 but I'm curious about lyrical themes. It seems like it 197 00:08:53,039 --> 00:08:55,759 seems like the songs not just not just ex Americana, 198 00:08:55,799 --> 00:08:57,799 but the other ones I listened to too. There's They've 199 00:08:57,840 --> 00:09:00,360 got that, Well, there's that punk ethoswhear you want to 200 00:09:00,399 --> 00:09:04,759 appeal to people who are not uh you know to 201 00:09:05,080 --> 00:09:07,200 uh you know, you want to appeal to working class people. 202 00:09:07,200 --> 00:09:08,279 I guess is what I'm trying to say, you know 203 00:09:08,320 --> 00:09:10,279 what I mean? And I mean, am I am I 204 00:09:10,320 --> 00:09:12,519 getting the right vibe with what I'm what I'm hearing 205 00:09:12,720 --> 00:09:13,759 in your lyrics. 206 00:09:13,480 --> 00:09:16,360 Speaker 1: Or yeah, I I I would say so. I mean 207 00:09:16,440 --> 00:09:19,519 I feel like ex Americana is a lot more explicitly 208 00:09:19,639 --> 00:09:24,559 so any song that we've done so far. But on 209 00:09:24,639 --> 00:09:27,519 the album Parasocial Security, I mean there there are plenty 210 00:09:27,519 --> 00:09:30,480 of songs with political themes, like Gods and Cowboys is 211 00:09:30,480 --> 00:09:34,600 about imperialism. Uh, You've got astill Auego, which is kind 212 00:09:34,639 --> 00:09:38,679 of a working class kind of song. Yeah got uh 213 00:09:39,039 --> 00:09:45,200 Queen of the Unclean, which is about trans rites social 214 00:09:45,240 --> 00:09:47,799 media content about social media, and then. 215 00:09:47,679 --> 00:09:50,879 Speaker 4: You got a little bit of love in there. So 216 00:09:51,080 --> 00:09:53,919 like you know, you got you got political, you got 217 00:09:54,039 --> 00:09:56,600 you know, social rights, you got the you have, we 218 00:09:56,720 --> 00:09:57,879 run the gamut. 219 00:09:58,600 --> 00:09:59,519 Speaker 9: Kind of yah. 220 00:10:00,200 --> 00:10:02,200 Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean like I feel like if I tried 221 00:10:02,200 --> 00:10:05,039 to write only political songs, I would run out of 222 00:10:05,080 --> 00:10:11,279 material really quickly because I'm not smart enough to do that. Yeah. 223 00:10:11,399 --> 00:10:13,039 Speaker 2: Now, I think that's what part That's part of what 224 00:10:13,279 --> 00:10:16,039 drew me in listening to your music, though, is is 225 00:10:16,639 --> 00:10:19,480 the theme the themes of because I love that stuff anyway. 226 00:10:19,519 --> 00:10:21,840 You know, we used to actually do politics on the 227 00:10:21,840 --> 00:10:23,240 show a long time ago, and we had to take 228 00:10:23,240 --> 00:10:26,639 it out. But now it's, you know, we we stick 229 00:10:26,679 --> 00:10:30,159 to interviews with musicians. But but it's but I like 230 00:10:30,279 --> 00:10:32,320 that kind of I like music with a message and 231 00:10:32,360 --> 00:10:34,720 a point of view and and all that. So I 232 00:10:34,759 --> 00:10:36,879 think that's that's what part of what drew me into 233 00:10:37,320 --> 00:10:39,399 because when I was listening because then I you know, 234 00:10:39,399 --> 00:10:41,039 obviously I listened to the tracks you sent, and then 235 00:10:41,039 --> 00:10:43,039 I went online and just listen everything I could find 236 00:10:43,080 --> 00:10:47,159 of of Jersey calling.

We're just putting 360 00:17:47,920 --> 00:17:52,960 everything online. Just Spotify and everything, and then, like especially 361 00:17:53,079 --> 00:17:55,079 probably in the last five years, I feel like there's 362 00:17:55,119 --> 00:17:57,319 been this reversal where obviously, yeah, you do have to 363 00:17:57,359 --> 00:17:59,400 put everything online, that's important, that that should be the 364 00:17:59,480 --> 00:18:03,400 number one already, but there's been a real recommitment to CDs. 365 00:18:03,440 --> 00:18:06,240 And of course vinyl never went away. Some people think 366 00:18:06,319 --> 00:18:08,480 vinyl like they just stopped making vinyl at one point 367 00:18:08,480 --> 00:18:10,119 and then it came back, but it really never went away. 368 00:18:10,240 --> 00:18:13,000 But but there's been a resurgence with that. I think 369 00:18:13,039 --> 00:18:16,279 it was it was either twenty twenty three or maybe 370 00:18:16,319 --> 00:18:18,680 twenty twenty two was the first year that vinyl actually 371 00:18:18,680 --> 00:18:24,119 outsold CDs since CDs became the primary medium. So but 372 00:18:24,240 --> 00:18:25,920 my theory with that is, I think most people who 373 00:18:25,960 --> 00:18:28,240 buy vinyl they never even open it because if you're 374 00:18:28,240 --> 00:18:30,519 really a fan of an artist, like a lot of 375 00:18:30,519 --> 00:18:32,839 people who buy vinyl probably don't even have a record player, 376 00:18:33,079 --> 00:18:35,119 you know, they just buy it because if you really 377 00:18:35,119 --> 00:18:36,480 want to support that artist, you know, and then you 378 00:18:36,519 --> 00:18:38,400 can mount the cover art on the wall or something. 379 00:18:38,480 --> 00:18:42,039 Speaker 1: But the cover art does look really cool, especially on vinyl, 380 00:18:42,079 --> 00:18:45,640 because it's yeah big, you know, oh yeah, but yeah, 381 00:18:46,119 --> 00:18:47,799 you know. What's crazy to me is like the amount 382 00:18:47,920 --> 00:18:50,920 of young people that are really into vinyl. Yeah, oh yeah, 383 00:18:51,079 --> 00:18:53,039 like the students that I teach, Like I have a 384 00:18:53,400 --> 00:18:57,559 sixth grade kid who he he's like really into vinyl 385 00:18:57,920 --> 00:19:02,039 and tapes and CD like like if it's if it's 386 00:19:02,160 --> 00:19:05,400 physical music, he is into it. Yeah, And I suspect 387 00:19:05,480 --> 00:19:08,359 like the streaming maybe is the introduction to that music. Yes, 388 00:19:09,359 --> 00:19:11,480 but if he likes it, he's going out and he's 389 00:19:11,519 --> 00:19:14,400 seeking out the physical album, which yeah, I mean that's 390 00:19:14,440 --> 00:19:16,279 I think that's super cool, you know, absolutely. 391 00:19:16,640 --> 00:19:19,519 Speaker 4: I like that there's like that option though, so like before, 392 00:19:19,680 --> 00:19:21,759 like you kind of had to either hear them live 393 00:19:22,000 --> 00:19:24,200 or just buy it and then listen and decide whether 394 00:19:24,279 --> 00:19:25,799 you like it or not. I kind of like that 395 00:19:25,920 --> 00:19:29,400 you can listen first and go no, I want that, like, 396 00:19:29,519 --> 00:19:31,759 you know, like that, I don't know if that helps me. 397 00:19:31,880 --> 00:19:34,200 Speaker 1: No, that would have saved me. That would have saved 398 00:19:34,200 --> 00:19:36,759 me some money in the nineties, man, that really would 399 00:19:36,799 --> 00:19:37,759 have absolutely. 400 00:19:38,160 --> 00:19:42,559 Speaker 2: Absolutely, Yeah, yeah, I mean I think it's yeah, it's nice. 401 00:19:42,680 --> 00:19:45,880 That's a great point, Victoria, because and don't get me wrong, 402 00:19:45,960 --> 00:19:47,799 like I have memories of being a kid going to 403 00:19:47,839 --> 00:19:50,400 the record store and you know, flipping through things and 404 00:19:50,480 --> 00:19:53,000 finding things that look interesting. Oh this looks this has 405 00:19:53,039 --> 00:19:55,279 a cool cover. Maybe this will be cool, maybe it won't, 406 00:19:55,319 --> 00:19:56,519 but I'll take the risk and buy it. 407 00:19:56,599 --> 00:19:56,759 Speaker 6: You know. 408 00:19:56,960 --> 00:19:59,480 Speaker 2: But now it's like, you know, there's no there's no 409 00:19:59,519 --> 00:20:03,920 guess where, and you can find anything that that's some 410 00:20:04,039 --> 00:20:06,039 of the you know, cause I'm I'm Generation X. My 411 00:20:06,119 --> 00:20:08,160 generation is really the last generation to grow up without 412 00:20:08,160 --> 00:20:10,720 the internet. So I can still remember, like if there 413 00:20:10,799 --> 00:20:12,440 was a song that just popped into my brain one 414 00:20:12,519 --> 00:20:13,880 day and I'm like, oh, I haven't heard that in 415 00:20:13,920 --> 00:20:15,799 a while. I'd like to hear that. Well, what am 416 00:20:15,839 --> 00:20:17,720 I gonna do if I don't. If I don't have 417 00:20:17,839 --> 00:20:19,839 it myself, I don't know anyone who has it. I mean, 418 00:20:19,880 --> 00:20:22,000 it's all you know. But now I can just go 419 00:20:22,079 --> 00:20:24,000 online and find it. It's amazing. We lived in an 420 00:20:24,039 --> 00:20:24,720 amazing time. 421 00:20:24,920 --> 00:20:25,160 Speaker 10: It is. 422 00:20:25,359 --> 00:20:28,240 Speaker 1: It is pretty crazy. I remember like I would I 423 00:20:28,279 --> 00:20:30,680 would hear I would hear a single on the radio 424 00:20:30,960 --> 00:20:33,359 or I'd see it on like MTV or something, and 425 00:20:33,440 --> 00:20:35,319 then you had no choice. You had to go out 426 00:20:35,359 --> 00:20:37,759 and buy the album because like the single wasn't available 427 00:20:37,839 --> 00:20:39,759 or whatever. Yeah, and then you listen to the album 428 00:20:39,799 --> 00:20:41,640 and it's like, I hate every other. 429 00:20:43,079 --> 00:20:43,720 Speaker 2: Yeah, I hate. 430 00:20:44,160 --> 00:20:47,799 Speaker 1: I have eleven tracks of garbage and I have one 431 00:20:48,000 --> 00:20:49,400 song that I want to hear yeap. 432 00:20:49,799 --> 00:20:50,960 Speaker 2: Oh yeah that was. 433 00:20:51,039 --> 00:20:54,920 Speaker 1: Fifteen dollars of my heart earned allowance yep.

But we also have this license plate 735 00:39:08,800 --> 00:39:11,320 game where it's more involved than just counting how many 736 00:39:11,360 --> 00:39:13,719 different states you see, but you have to get a 737 00:39:13,800 --> 00:39:16,880 total of states that are all contiguous with one another. 738 00:39:17,519 --> 00:39:20,440 So like, if you see a Wyoming plate, in order 739 00:39:20,480 --> 00:39:22,159 to count it in the total, you got to connect 740 00:39:22,199 --> 00:39:24,440 it all the way to in this case, like New 741 00:39:24,480 --> 00:39:28,239 Hampshire and anyway.
