how excited are you to talk about early eighties TV theme?

15
00:01:00,359 --> 00:01:03,159
Speaker 2: Dee? I'm so excited because now we are really entering

16
00:01:03,240 --> 00:01:06,159
our sweet spot here. We were pretty young in the seventies,

17
00:01:06,400 --> 00:01:09,560
but now this is really where Friday night in front

18
00:01:09,599 --> 00:01:12,000
of the tube, you know, the giant, five hundred pound

19
00:01:12,159 --> 00:01:14,840
furniture television that everybody had in their living room.

20
00:01:14,959 --> 00:01:16,319
Speaker 3: Yeah, I'm laying on the floor.

21
00:01:16,359 --> 00:01:19,519
Speaker 2: I've got oreos and a fantas strawberry and I'm watching

22
00:01:19,680 --> 00:01:21,519
whatever coming on you know that night.

23
00:01:21,640 --> 00:01:24,319
Speaker 1: Yeah, I'm pretty sure that my dad still has the

24
00:01:24,400 --> 00:01:27,120
same coffee table that I would sit on top of

25
00:01:27,519 --> 00:01:31,200
or eat cereal off of or whatever. For the entire time.

26
00:01:31,280 --> 00:01:33,439
I grew up watching TV, and I will tell you,

27
00:01:33,519 --> 00:01:36,239
like most Gen X kids, I watched TV all the

28
00:01:36,280 --> 00:01:39,519
time and I love the theme music, and the theme music

29
00:01:39,560 --> 00:01:41,760
that we've got for this episode is some of the

30
00:01:41,799 --> 00:01:43,040
best in history.

31
00:01:43,239 --> 00:01:43,439
Speaker 4: Right.

32
00:01:43,560 --> 00:01:46,519
Speaker 1: So TV has its ups and downs on whether it's

33
00:01:46,560 --> 00:01:49,400
popular or not, and sometimes it's kind of thought of

34
00:01:49,560 --> 00:01:51,480
as a lower art form. But you just got to

35
00:01:51,519 --> 00:01:53,439
think about the fact that the guys who had to

36
00:01:53,480 --> 00:01:56,480
come up with the themes for these TV shows had

37
00:01:56,480 --> 00:01:59,560
to give you a hook in somewhere between forty five

38
00:02:00,200 --> 00:02:00,920
ninety seconds.

39
00:02:01,000 --> 00:02:02,719
Speaker 3: Yeah, definitely they did it.

40
00:02:02,959 --> 00:02:06,159
Speaker 1: They put their art into the art of the TV

41
00:02:06,319 --> 00:02:09,080
show and gave you something to latch onto so that

42
00:02:09,159 --> 00:02:10,319
you wanted to keep watching.

43
00:02:10,439 --> 00:02:12,719
Speaker 2: Just a little side note, Yeah, my wife and I

44
00:02:12,840 --> 00:02:15,360
were going through Hulu last night. We're looking for something

45
00:02:15,360 --> 00:02:17,520
to watch, and we're like, hey, we haven't watched Justified

46
00:02:17,560 --> 00:02:19,599
in the long time. So we started episode one of

47
00:02:19,800 --> 00:02:23,719
Justified and they're riding the big bold letters in the

48
00:02:23,719 --> 00:02:26,520
opening credits theme song by Steve Picaro.

49
00:02:26,759 --> 00:02:28,599
Speaker 3: There you go, Toto. Yep.

50
00:02:28,719 --> 00:02:29,199
Speaker 2: Kind of fun.

51
00:02:29,439 --> 00:02:32,319
Speaker 1: It is fantastic. So, guys, we've got a few rules

52
00:02:32,319 --> 00:02:35,199
that we abide by in this particular series that we

53
00:02:35,280 --> 00:02:38,120
are doing. Number One, it doesn't have to be strictly

54
00:02:38,159 --> 00:02:42,360
between eighty and eighty four for this. It can overlap

55
00:02:42,439 --> 00:02:45,039
into some of the other years. But we just kind

56
00:02:45,039 --> 00:02:47,680
of feel like this is the kind of sweet area

57
00:02:47,719 --> 00:02:48,960
that this TV show is in.

58
00:02:49,080 --> 00:02:52,759
Speaker 2: For example, if it started in nineteen seventy seven ended

59
00:02:52,800 --> 00:02:54,879
in nineteen eighty three, really you could have put it

60
00:02:54,879 --> 00:02:56,879
in the previous episode or in this episode.

61
00:02:56,960 --> 00:02:58,840
Speaker 1: Can I just tell you not bringing it up? I

62
00:02:58,840 --> 00:03:01,039
hope it's not on your list, Okay. I was actually

63
00:03:01,120 --> 00:03:02,879
kind of hoping to surprise you with this one. I

64
00:03:02,919 --> 00:03:05,360
looked at this one because I remember this TV theme

65
00:03:05,400 --> 00:03:07,800
growing up, because we used to watch it all the time. Okay,

66
00:03:08,039 --> 00:03:11,439
but it ran from like nineteen sixty three to I

67
00:03:11,479 --> 00:03:14,319
don't know, like nineteen eighty nine or maybe even into

68
00:03:14,319 --> 00:03:17,520
the nineties. Oh, but it was a TV theme for

69
00:03:17,879 --> 00:03:34,199
Mutual of Omaha's Wild Kingdom. I mean that kicks, But

70
00:03:34,560 --> 00:03:36,639
I don't care who you are, I don't care what

71
00:03:36,800 --> 00:03:38,360
decade we're coming from.

72
00:03:38,439 --> 00:03:40,560
Speaker 3: That is a fantastic theme.

73
00:03:40,879 --> 00:03:42,840
Speaker 2: Yeah, that was a show that came on I remember

74
00:03:42,840 --> 00:03:45,879
on Sunday afternoons, and I remember like lots of times

75
00:03:45,919 --> 00:03:49,000
pleading with my parents, like could you guys go to church?

76
00:03:49,120 --> 00:03:53,759
Try watch Mutual of Omaha? You know Wild Kingdom Marlon Perkins, Baby,

77
00:03:53,800 --> 00:03:56,240
I know, right, hey, before we get started. Yeah, you're

78
00:03:56,240 --> 00:03:59,879
sitting on your coffee table. You're turning the knob on

79
00:03:59,879 --> 00:04:02,120
the television to get it to the right station.

80
00:04:02,280 --> 00:04:05,240
Speaker 1: Yeah, scooting the coffee table inch by inch forward so

81
00:04:05,280 --> 00:04:06,960
that I can just lean over to do it instead

82
00:04:06,960 --> 00:04:07,520
of standing up.

83
00:04:07,599 --> 00:04:07,960
Speaker 3: Yeah.

84
00:04:08,039 --> 00:04:11,479
Speaker 2: Yeah, Okay, what cereal do you have in your bowl

85
00:04:11,520 --> 00:04:12,919
while you're watching television?

86
00:04:12,919 --> 00:04:17,839
Speaker 1: Cookie crisp? Cookiekriaky crisp was my favorite cereal. Yeah, Now,

87
00:04:17,879 --> 00:04:20,920
I mean I loved tons of them. You know, fruity pebbles.

88
00:04:21,040 --> 00:04:24,600
I've become a lover of cocoa pebbles since then, Fruit loops,

89
00:04:24,839 --> 00:04:26,920
lucky charms, ate the crap out of those would eat

90
00:04:26,959 --> 00:04:28,720
all of the nasty ones first so they could have

91
00:04:28,759 --> 00:04:29,959
the marshmallows.

92
00:04:31,360 --> 00:04:31,560
Speaker 5: Man.

93
00:04:31,839 --> 00:04:35,360
Speaker 2: So my number one draft pick is fruity pebbles. Okay,

94
00:04:35,480 --> 00:04:37,120
let's dive into it. Are you going first and my

95
00:04:37,199 --> 00:04:37,839
going first? Well?

96
00:04:37,839 --> 00:04:39,560
Speaker 3: You went first last time. I suppose I should go

97
00:04:39,600 --> 00:04:40,040
first this time.

98
00:04:40,079 --> 00:04:42,240
Speaker 2: All right, So we're starting with number five. We'll go

99
00:04:42,279 --> 00:04:45,279
to number two, two honorable mentions, then number one.

100
00:04:45,279 --> 00:04:50,920
Speaker 3: Right, number five? Five? Okay.

101
00:04:51,000 --> 00:04:53,759
Speaker 1: So another thing that we do with these is give

102
00:04:53,839 --> 00:04:56,360
little clues. See if the other guy can guess it

103
00:04:56,439 --> 00:04:58,800
before we give the answer. Right, right, right, Okay.

104
00:04:59,160 --> 00:05:01,759
Speaker 3: So this, this song that I'm about to talk.

105
00:05:01,560 --> 00:05:05,879
Speaker 1: About was written by a guy who would be in

106
00:05:05,920 --> 00:05:09,480
a TV series that we might mention in our next episode.

107
00:05:09,879 --> 00:05:11,160
Speaker 2: Oh okay. Interesting.

108
00:05:11,439 --> 00:05:14,959
Speaker 1: He was married to a lady. They wrote several theme songs.

109
00:05:15,120 --> 00:05:18,319
They had a child who grew up to become a

110
00:05:18,399 --> 00:05:21,680
performer as well also the host of a singing show.

111
00:05:22,240 --> 00:05:24,519
But his most famous song that I'm aware of is

112
00:05:24,519 --> 00:05:27,000
a song called blurred Lines. You know the Sun?

113
00:05:27,399 --> 00:05:30,639
Speaker 3: No, Robin Thick. Do you know the dad?

114
00:05:30,920 --> 00:05:31,560
Speaker 2: Alan Thick?

115
00:05:31,639 --> 00:05:32,199
Speaker 3: You got it?

116
00:05:32,480 --> 00:05:36,759
Speaker 1: Alan Thick, mister growing Pain's TV dad. Before he did that,

117
00:05:37,279 --> 00:05:41,800
hosted some music shows, some talk shows, but also composed

118
00:05:41,959 --> 00:05:43,839
music with his wife, whose.

119
00:05:43,680 --> 00:05:45,040
Speaker 3: Name was Gloria Loring.

120
00:05:45,360 --> 00:05:49,959
Speaker 1: As they composed a theme to a couple of important

121
00:05:49,959 --> 00:05:53,480
shows from the nineteen eighties, and this one is on

122
00:05:53,519 --> 00:05:56,920
my number five list. Okay, yeah, so since you haven't

123
00:05:56,959 --> 00:05:59,800
gotten the show from that first of all, I like

124
00:06:00,160 --> 00:06:02,720
you teased me up for something modern music.

125
00:06:02,879 --> 00:06:06,639
Speaker 2: I know, Jack squat about modern music.

126
00:06:06,680 --> 00:06:08,680
Speaker 3: How do you not know blurred lines? Have you seen

127
00:06:08,680 --> 00:06:09,120
that video?

128
00:06:09,279 --> 00:06:10,600
Speaker 2: Ever heard of it?

129
00:06:10,720 --> 00:06:13,480
Speaker 1: Oh my gosh, let me just tell you. Go watch

130
00:06:13,519 --> 00:06:15,920
that video. Okay, and make sure the kids aren't around.

131
00:06:15,920 --> 00:06:18,240
Speaker 2: Okay, Okay, I can handle that asimon.

132
00:06:20,040 --> 00:06:25,680
Speaker 1: Okay, So this show, okay, I'm done giving you clues. Okay, okay,

133
00:06:25,759 --> 00:06:28,040
I'm done giving you clues that they're hard. I'm going

134
00:06:28,079 --> 00:06:28,920
to give you a clue.

135
00:06:28,680 --> 00:06:30,759
Speaker 3: That is easy. Okay, what you're talking about, Jason?

136
00:06:30,800 --> 00:06:33,800
Speaker 2: Different strokes and dates, different drugs.

137
00:06:34,480 --> 00:06:41,480
Speaker 5: Now, the world is just fun drum one time for you.

138
00:06:45,800 --> 00:06:47,600
Speaker 3: Very good. The show is Different Strokes.

139
00:06:47,639 --> 00:06:52,079
Speaker 1: The theme song is it Takes Different Strokes composed specifically

140
00:06:52,079 --> 00:06:52,639
for the show.

141
00:07:00,120 --> 00:07:01,600
Speaker 3: This show was created by.

142
00:07:01,759 --> 00:07:06,319
Speaker 1: Jeff Harris and Bernie pulled the laughter cuckoff.

143
00:07:07,720 --> 00:07:09,399
Speaker 2: What are you talking about here?

144
00:07:10,079 --> 00:07:13,959
Speaker 1: And the show and the theme song was composed by

145
00:07:14,399 --> 00:07:19,319
Alan Thick, his wife Gloria Loring, and Alberton. Now I

146
00:07:19,399 --> 00:07:22,720
mentioned that Alan Thick was married to Gloria Loring. Alan

147
00:07:23,079 --> 00:07:26,040
had three wives. Okay, the thing that I when you

148
00:07:26,079 --> 00:07:29,240
were listening to me talking about Holy Cow. He got

149
00:07:29,319 --> 00:07:31,879
divorced from Gloria Louring a little bit later on. Sure,

150
00:07:31,920 --> 00:07:34,879
so nineteen eighty stopped making beautiful music together.

151
00:07:35,000 --> 00:07:36,480
Speaker 3: You got it? Yeah?

152
00:07:36,720 --> 00:07:40,959
Speaker 1: So in nineteen eighty seven, yeah, full growing pains period,

153
00:07:41,079 --> 00:07:45,279
righty right, he started dating Christy Swanson.

154
00:07:45,519 --> 00:07:50,879
Speaker 2: Christy Swanson, Christy freaking Swans. Paris Peeler's day off. My

155
00:07:50,959 --> 00:07:54,319
best friend's sister's boyfriend's brother's girlfriend heard from this guy

156
00:07:54,319 --> 00:07:56,199
who knows this kid is going with the girl who

157
00:07:56,240 --> 00:07:58,439
sow Ferris passed out at thirty one flavors last.

158
00:07:58,319 --> 00:08:03,639
Speaker 1: Night, Buffy the Vampires Lay Yes, christ eleven. She was seventeen,

159
00:08:04,399 --> 00:08:05,720

160
00:08:06,240 --> 00:08:10,279
Speaker 2: Stop it, I know, right, scandalous.

161
00:08:09,480 --> 00:08:12,279
Speaker 3: Scandalous, all right, So there you go. That's my number five. Okay,

162
00:08:12,279 --> 00:08:13,319
what's she? What do you got for me?

163
00:08:13,439 --> 00:08:13,759
Speaker 4: All right?

164
00:08:13,879 --> 00:08:16,680
Speaker 2: My number five is from a television show that ran

165
00:08:16,720 --> 00:08:20,360
from nineteen eighty one to nineteen eighty six, and again

166
00:08:20,439 --> 00:08:23,079
I remember it ran on Wednesday nights because my family

167
00:08:23,120 --> 00:08:25,279
was always at church, so me trying to get home

168
00:08:25,319 --> 00:08:28,319
to watch this show was always a challenge, okay. The

169
00:08:28,319 --> 00:08:33,679
theme song mentions lots of action and TV stars and

170
00:08:33,759 --> 00:08:34,799
movie stars of the.

171
00:08:34,879 --> 00:08:35,919
Speaker 3: Day, okay.

172
00:08:36,399 --> 00:08:39,639
Speaker 2: For instance, in the theme song it mentioned Sally Field

173
00:08:39,879 --> 00:08:44,519
and Raquel Welch and Cheryl Tigues and Redford and Eastwood

174
00:08:44,639 --> 00:08:48,600
and Burt Reynolds and jacque Line Smith and Cheryl Ladd

175
00:08:48,879 --> 00:08:51,080
and Farah Fawcett.

176
00:08:51,440 --> 00:08:52,559
Speaker 3: Is it Charlie's Angels?

177
00:08:52,879 --> 00:08:56,399
Speaker 1: No, okay, because you've mentioned like every single Charlie's angel

178
00:08:56,399 --> 00:08:58,159
but I don't remember them being in a theme song.

179
00:08:58,399 --> 00:08:59,919
Speaker 2: It's referencing Charlie's age.

180
00:09:00,360 --> 00:09:01,720
Speaker 3: Yeah, I got nothing, okay.

181
00:09:02,240 --> 00:09:06,600
Speaker 2: This song was written by Glenn Larson, who also developed

182
00:09:06,600 --> 00:09:11,320
the show, and the song is the Unknown Stuntman, sung

183
00:09:11,360 --> 00:09:12,600
by Lee Majors.

184
00:09:13,039 --> 00:09:15,600
Speaker 3: Love it the fall Guy, A fall guy.

185
00:09:15,840 --> 00:09:19,360
Speaker 5: Well, I'm not find kiss a till, but I've been

186
00:09:19,480 --> 00:09:23,960
seen with Up. I've never been with anything less than

187
00:09:24,159 --> 00:09:25,720
man so fine.

188
00:09:26,360 --> 00:09:29,159
Speaker 2: I've been on fire with Silent Field.

189
00:09:29,039 --> 00:09:32,639
Speaker 1: Down past with the girl named Bo, but somehow they

190
00:09:32,919 --> 00:09:33,960
just don't.

191
00:09:33,679 --> 00:09:36,320
Speaker 3: End up as fantastic.

192
00:09:36,399 --> 00:09:39,679
Speaker 1: You know what, whenever we've whenever I called you, we

193
00:09:39,720 --> 00:09:42,240
came up with the idea for this episode literally like

194
00:09:42,360 --> 00:09:43,279
a couple of days ago.

195
00:09:43,480 --> 00:09:46,679
Speaker 3: Two hours ago, and I called you up and that

196
00:09:46,879 --> 00:09:48,879
was literally one of the songs that was in my.

197
00:09:48,919 --> 00:09:52,279
Speaker 1: Head as I was talking to you, And somehow it

198
00:09:52,320 --> 00:09:54,679
didn't translate into me putting it down. Somehow I just

199
00:09:54,720 --> 00:09:57,600
completely blanked it out. That is a fantastic one. I'm

200
00:09:57,600 --> 00:10:02,960
glad you got cars.

201
00:10:05,399 --> 00:10:10,559
Speaker 2: They had read books. Just okay, that's great. So during

202
00:10:10,600 --> 00:10:13,200
the song he mentions all these people by name, and

203
00:10:13,320 --> 00:10:16,879
in the intro it is punctuated by all these cool

204
00:10:16,919 --> 00:10:17,679
action scenes.

205
00:10:17,759 --> 00:10:22,320
Speaker 1: The only scene I remember involves a bikini and a

206
00:10:22,440 --> 00:10:23,879
swinging saloon door.

207
00:10:24,399 --> 00:10:27,279
Speaker 2: Is Heather Thomas the hottest woman from nineteen eighty one?

208
00:10:27,440 --> 00:10:30,320
Speaker 1: She quite possibly could be. She was definitely up there

209
00:10:30,320 --> 00:10:31,679
with those girls you just mentioned.

210
00:10:31,759 --> 00:10:32,080
Speaker 3: Okay.

211
00:10:32,200 --> 00:10:36,039
Speaker 2: So Glenn Larson, the creator of the show, also created Bowlestar, Galactica,

212
00:10:36,440 --> 00:10:40,159
Buck Rogers, Quincy, Emmy BJ and The Bear Magnum p

213
00:10:40,360 --> 00:10:42,519
I night Rider. This guy is an all star and

214
00:10:42,559 --> 00:10:44,600
he wrote helped develop the song.

215
00:10:44,559 --> 00:10:47,000
Speaker 3: Excellent Eighties Gold. Yes, eighties Gold.

216
00:10:47,080 --> 00:10:49,799
Speaker 2: So he was in a pop group called the Four Preps.

217
00:10:50,000 --> 00:10:52,600
Speaker 3: Oh my gosh, the four Preps. We've talked about this before.

218
00:10:52,919 --> 00:10:54,159
What yes?

219
00:10:54,480 --> 00:10:57,600
Speaker 1: No, So we talked about it in one of our

220
00:10:57,639 --> 00:11:02,720
Patreon episodes, our recent Patreon episodes, because one of the

221
00:11:02,799 --> 00:11:05,720
key members of the Four Preps was a guy.

222
00:11:05,639 --> 00:11:07,480
Speaker 3: Named Edward Cobb.

223
00:11:07,519 --> 00:11:12,039
Speaker 1: Who discovered a girl singer back in the sixties who

224
00:11:12,240 --> 00:11:15,399
did the original version of this song. But we talked

225
00:11:15,399 --> 00:11:18,360
about the later version where soft Self covered it.

226
00:11:18,519 --> 00:11:20,679
Speaker 2: Oh my gosh, are you talking about tated Love?

227
00:11:20,840 --> 00:11:32,960
Speaker 3: You got it? Lad Wow.

228
00:11:33,080 --> 00:11:35,679
Speaker 1: If you are not part of our Patreon you need

229
00:11:35,720 --> 00:11:37,720
to be just so that you can hear our Tainted

230
00:11:37,799 --> 00:11:40,120
Love and all of our other one hit wonder episodes.

231
00:11:40,240 --> 00:11:43,600
We talk about ed Cobb as the writer of Tainted Love.

232
00:11:43,679 --> 00:11:45,799
But you've got more on the Four Preps.

233
00:11:45,840 --> 00:11:46,559
Speaker 3: Tell okay, guy.

234
00:11:46,639 --> 00:11:49,039
Speaker 2: So, Glenn Larson, the guy who created all these wonderful

235
00:11:49,080 --> 00:11:52,240
television shows, has a musical background. He was a member

236
00:11:52,279 --> 00:11:56,039
of the Four Preps at one time when he stepped out.

237
00:11:56,159 --> 00:11:58,919
Now another guy stepped in. It wasn't a direct replacement,

238
00:11:58,960 --> 00:12:02,480
but his name was Dave's revealed and he actually sings it,

239
00:12:02,759 --> 00:12:06,000
and he went with Glenn Larson to pitch this to

240
00:12:06,200 --> 00:12:08,799
ABC by playing the song.

241
00:12:08,919 --> 00:12:10,960
Speaker 3: The unknown stunt Man fantastic.

242
00:12:11,360 --> 00:12:14,080
Speaker 1: I can remember the episode of The Fall Guy where

243
00:12:14,080 --> 00:12:17,639
they're doing the stunt and the director and like one

244
00:12:17,639 --> 00:12:18,879
of the coordinators or whatever.

245
00:12:18,919 --> 00:12:20,480
Speaker 3: It's like, this is gonna be a really hard one, and.

246
00:12:21,519 --> 00:12:23,799
Speaker 1: Lee Majors had just been like, guys, this is I'm

247
00:12:23,879 --> 00:12:25,360
really concerned about this stunt.

248
00:12:25,440 --> 00:12:27,600
Speaker 3: You know this is And they're like, you know, we

249
00:12:28,000 --> 00:12:28,799
know that you can do it.

250
00:12:28,840 --> 00:12:31,879
Speaker 1: And then it shows the truck and it does the

251
00:12:31,879 --> 00:12:34,799
big ramp up and then it falls short and the

252
00:12:34,879 --> 00:12:39,279
truck explodes, and you're like, did they just kill Lee Majors?

253
00:12:40,559 --> 00:12:42,919
And they're all thinking the exact same thing. And then

254
00:12:43,000 --> 00:12:45,320
Lee comes walking up and he's got a little remote

255
00:12:45,360 --> 00:12:47,799
control because he's turned in because he knew that stunt

256
00:12:47,799 --> 00:12:48,559
was too dangerous.

257
00:12:48,919 --> 00:12:50,399
Speaker 3: I thought that was a fantastic open.

258
00:12:50,480 --> 00:12:54,159
Speaker 2: Lee Majors, star of the fictional movie The Night the

259
00:12:54,200 --> 00:12:55,080
Reindeer Died.

260
00:12:55,600 --> 00:12:56,200
Speaker 3: Go back and.

261
00:12:56,200 --> 00:13:00,840
Speaker 1: Check out our Scrooge versus Christmas Vacation episode. Okay, that

262
00:13:00,960 --> 00:13:07,440
takes us to number four, Yes, four, this one.

263
00:13:08,159 --> 00:13:09,639
Speaker 3: I got a little story for you on this one.

264
00:13:09,679 --> 00:13:10,039
Speaker 2: Okay.

265
00:13:10,240 --> 00:13:12,600
Speaker 1: You know this song, you know it, but you may

266
00:13:12,639 --> 00:13:15,480
not know the story behind some of it, right, Okay, okay, okay.

267
00:13:15,759 --> 00:13:17,519
Speaker 3: The guy who is kind.

268
00:13:17,360 --> 00:13:21,080
Speaker 1: Of an inspiration for this show, who is credited as

269
00:13:21,200 --> 00:13:24,679
one of its creators, was a guy who used to

270
00:13:24,799 --> 00:13:29,440
drive around a nineteen fifty eight Chrysler three hundred D

271
00:13:29,799 --> 00:13:32,399
because it could go one hundred and forty miles an hour,

272
00:13:33,559 --> 00:13:35,519
and he named the car.

273
00:13:35,759 --> 00:13:39,519
Speaker 3: He named it Traveler because Traveler was the name of

274
00:13:39,759 --> 00:13:43,720
Robert E. Lee's favorite horse. Have you Got It?

275
00:13:43,840 --> 00:13:45,360
Speaker 2: Is this the Duke's of hazard.

276
00:13:45,120 --> 00:13:53,559
Speaker 3: Song You've got a Baby? Yes, just a good old Bonde.

277
00:13:55,600 --> 00:13:58,360
Speaker 1: So Jerry Rushing was the name of the guy born

278
00:13:58,639 --> 00:14:02,399
into a bootlegging family, bootlegged when he was a kid,

279
00:14:02,559 --> 00:14:04,759
drove that Chrysler, had to ditch it at some point

280
00:14:04,919 --> 00:14:09,000
it became scrap. But at some point a guy named

281
00:14:09,120 --> 00:14:10,799
Guy Waldron is.

282
00:14:11,039 --> 00:14:12,039
Speaker 3: A TV producer.

283
00:14:12,120 --> 00:14:16,519
Speaker 1: He's talking to this Jerry Rushing about bootlegging culture, and

284
00:14:16,600 --> 00:14:18,600
that's how you come up with the movie that you

285
00:14:18,679 --> 00:14:22,639
talked about in our original TV theme episode moon Runners,

286
00:14:22,799 --> 00:14:26,519
moon Runners right Now. The problem was is that Guy

287
00:14:26,600 --> 00:14:29,879
Waldron didn't give Jerry Rushing any credit, and so Jerry

288
00:14:29,960 --> 00:14:31,159
Rushing sued him.

289
00:14:31,480 --> 00:14:35,159
Speaker 3: He claims interesting, and he won. They settled the case.

290
00:14:35,200 --> 00:14:37,879
Speaker 1: He got some undisclosed amount and he obviously gets credit

291
00:14:38,159 --> 00:14:40,519
as a creator of the show. But he had an

292
00:14:40,600 --> 00:14:43,519
uncle Woolley that he said, Uncle Jesse was obviously based

293
00:14:43,559 --> 00:14:47,320
on he said, his escapades. Clearly he was the inspiration

294
00:14:47,440 --> 00:14:51,000
for Bo Duke and then obviously the General Lee had

295
00:14:51,000 --> 00:14:53,919
to be taken from his car called the Traveler.

296
00:14:53,960 --> 00:14:56,679
Speaker 2: We might have to do a top five eighties vehicles

297
00:14:56,720 --> 00:14:57,600
show one of these days.

298
00:14:57,679 --> 00:14:58,879
Speaker 3: Oh, that would be fantastic.

299
00:14:59,440 --> 00:15:02,799
Speaker 1: Now, we mentioned on our other episode when you talked

300
00:15:02,799 --> 00:15:06,200
about this song, the song is good Old Boys.

301
00:15:06,200 --> 00:15:07,679
Speaker 3: Waylon Jennings, Ayln Jennings.

302
00:15:07,679 --> 00:15:09,720
Speaker 1: Now, if you don't know that name, that may you

303
00:15:09,759 --> 00:15:10,919
may not be a country person.

304
00:15:11,039 --> 00:15:14,919
Speaker 3: That's okay. He is like a Mount Rushmore on.

305
00:15:15,279 --> 00:15:17,480
Speaker 2: Old Countryman Royalty.

306
00:15:17,799 --> 00:15:20,240
Speaker 1: And if you happen to see the movie Lobamba or

307
00:15:20,440 --> 00:15:22,960
know the history there with Buddy Holly, he was the

308
00:15:23,000 --> 00:15:25,159
guy who when they were trying to decide who was

309
00:15:25,200 --> 00:15:26,799
going to take the bus and who was going to

310
00:15:26,840 --> 00:15:28,759
take take the plane and they flipped a.

311
00:15:28,720 --> 00:15:30,559
Speaker 3: Coin, he lost the coin.

312
00:15:30,440 --> 00:15:33,440
Speaker 1: Toss and he had to take the bus, and he

313
00:15:33,840 --> 00:15:36,639
said to them. Last thing he said to them is

314
00:15:37,080 --> 00:15:42,559
I hope that plane crashes. He battled depression and alcoholism

315
00:15:42,679 --> 00:15:45,240
for decades after that because of what happened.

316
00:15:45,320 --> 00:15:47,679
Speaker 2: Oh my gosh, I had no idea about that. That's

317
00:15:47,720 --> 00:15:48,759
a great story there.

318
00:15:48,679 --> 00:15:52,039
Speaker 1: You go Waylon Jennings. By the way, Dukes of Hazzard

319
00:15:52,120 --> 00:15:53,159
hit number one.

320
00:15:53,159 --> 00:15:55,440
Speaker 3: On the Hot Country Billboard Top.

321
00:15:56,000 --> 00:15:58,720
Speaker 2: Nineteen eighty I actually had it in my seventies. You

322
00:15:58,759 --> 00:16:00,360
got it in the eighties. I got no problem with

323
00:16:00,360 --> 00:16:00,639
that one.

324
00:16:00,679 --> 00:16:03,120
Speaker 1: Yeah, the show went from nineteen seventy nine to nineteen

325
00:16:03,200 --> 00:16:05,960
eighty five. Technically it hits all three of our episodes,

326
00:16:06,000 --> 00:16:08,200
but for me, it was definitely that sweet spot was.

327
00:16:08,159 --> 00:16:08,919
Speaker 3: The early eighties.

328
00:16:09,240 --> 00:16:10,039
Speaker 2: Cool, awesome.

329
00:16:10,360 --> 00:16:13,559
Speaker 1: I can remember every Friday night watching this show and

330
00:16:13,600 --> 00:16:14,480
the incredible Hulk.

331
00:16:14,559 --> 00:16:18,200
Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean, your plans are made right every Friday night.

332
00:16:20,120 --> 00:16:22,679
You remember when they kicked out Bow and Luke Duke

333
00:16:23,039 --> 00:16:25,080
and brought in Vansenkoy.

334
00:16:24,559 --> 00:16:28,039
Speaker 3: Vanson Koy. Come on. I mean, I don't think anybody's

335
00:16:28,080 --> 00:16:31,679
gonna know the difference. Nobody to tell, all.

336
00:16:31,679 --> 00:16:35,159
Speaker 2: Right, right, quick, raft up your head. Catherine Bach versus

337
00:16:35,240 --> 00:16:37,320
Heather Thomas, Go Heather Thomas.

338
00:16:37,360 --> 00:16:38,200
Speaker 3: But it's close.

339
00:16:38,360 --> 00:16:41,639
Speaker 1: And if you watch both of them in the Battle

340
00:16:41,639 --> 00:16:46,159
of the Network Stars Olympics things, I could go either

341
00:16:46,200 --> 00:16:47,200
way on any day.

342
00:16:47,240 --> 00:16:49,559
Speaker 3: Oh wow, smoke show.

343
00:16:49,679 --> 00:16:51,480
Speaker 2: Yeah, okay, number four.

344
00:16:51,759 --> 00:16:53,440
Speaker 1: By the way, I think they both played a part

345
00:16:53,440 --> 00:16:57,320
in the dunking booth. Just saying God bless them.

346
00:16:57,480 --> 00:16:59,519
Speaker 3: All right, you tell me you were number four, number four,

347
00:16:59,600 --> 00:17:00,080
number four.

348
00:17:00,240 --> 00:17:02,279
Speaker 2: All right, I think this is going to appear on

349
00:17:02,320 --> 00:17:06,279
your list. Okay, so we might just glaze over it better.

350
00:17:06,799 --> 00:17:11,200
So this was composed again by mister Mike Post who

351
00:17:11,200 --> 00:17:11,880
did the music.

352
00:17:12,039 --> 00:17:13,799
Speaker 3: Okay, now you say again Mike Posts.

353
00:17:13,920 --> 00:17:17,640
Speaker 1: We mentioned him in our last episode and I said, guys,

354
00:17:17,720 --> 00:17:19,759
if you're gonna have a drinking game on this episode,

355
00:17:20,160 --> 00:17:22,440
Mike Post might be the name that you want to remember.

356
00:17:22,599 --> 00:17:24,960
You take your shot every time Mike Post comes up.

357
00:17:25,000 --> 00:17:27,680
When we talked about him on our previous previous episode,

358
00:17:27,720 --> 00:17:29,799
I mentioned that he had become a part of the

359
00:17:29,799 --> 00:17:32,960
Wrecking Crew. He goes on to do TV shows, worked

360
00:17:32,960 --> 00:17:35,519
with Ray Charles on The Andy Williams Show, then hit

361
00:17:35,559 --> 00:17:40,319
it big with The Rockford Files starring James Garner of Norman, Oklahoma,

362
00:17:40,359 --> 00:17:43,119
where both Jason and I are from, and made it

363
00:17:43,119 --> 00:17:44,200
to the top ten with that one.

364
00:17:44,319 --> 00:17:44,920
Speaker 2: Yes, that's right.

365
00:17:45,079 --> 00:17:47,640
Speaker 3: Okay, So we got Mike Post for your number four.

366
00:17:48,039 --> 00:17:51,319
Speaker 2: Yes hit me. This one hit number two on the

367
00:17:51,319 --> 00:17:52,160
Hot one hundred.

368
00:17:52,279 --> 00:17:52,640
Speaker 3: Okay.

369
00:17:52,839 --> 00:17:55,480
Speaker 2: Blocked by a song that we've talked about in a

370
00:17:55,519 --> 00:17:56,599
previous episode.

371
00:17:56,640 --> 00:17:58,880
Speaker 3: I think I know what it is. Okay, I think

372
00:17:58,920 --> 00:17:59,599
I know what it is.

373
00:18:00,000 --> 00:18:03,119
Speaker 2: The song that blocked it was Endless Love by Diana

374
00:18:03,200 --> 00:18:04,480
Ross and Lionel Ritchie.

375
00:18:04,559 --> 00:18:06,880
Speaker 1: I do know what it is, and hold on to

376
00:18:06,960 --> 00:18:08,839
that nugget. We'll come back to it later.

377
00:18:09,160 --> 00:18:10,079
Speaker 2: Set that one aside.

378
00:18:10,160 --> 00:18:12,839
Speaker 1: Put that one aside, which is okay, because I'm coming

379
00:18:12,920 --> 00:18:15,759
right back to Mike Post for my number three.

380
00:18:15,880 --> 00:18:17,200
Speaker 2: Number three, Okay, back to you.

381
00:18:19,759 --> 00:18:22,920
Speaker 3: Three. All right. So, Jason, my clue for you is

382
00:18:22,960 --> 00:18:24,319
this one. I will tell you this all right.

383
00:18:24,480 --> 00:18:26,640
Speaker 1: Yes, I didn't really get to watch this show very

384
00:18:26,720 --> 00:18:28,960
much because it was a little too grown up for me.

385
00:18:29,240 --> 00:18:29,519
Speaker 3: Okay.

386
00:18:29,759 --> 00:18:33,640
Speaker 1: Kind of changed television, I gotta say this. The flawed

387
00:18:33,720 --> 00:18:37,960
character's intense subject matter kind of changed the course of television.

388
00:18:38,079 --> 00:18:41,400
But even though I didn't watch the episodes, I always

389
00:18:41,519 --> 00:18:43,960
hung out to listen to the theme song because it

390
00:18:44,079 --> 00:18:46,759
was so good. Okay, And the only clue that I

391
00:18:46,759 --> 00:18:50,400
can give you is theme song starts playing as a

392
00:18:50,480 --> 00:18:53,240
car comes out of a garage and you see the

393
00:18:53,279 --> 00:18:55,440
headlights and then you see the sirens come.

394
00:18:55,359 --> 00:18:56,759
Speaker 2: On Sillstreet blues.

395
00:18:56,799 --> 00:18:58,559
Speaker 5: You got it.

396
00:19:09,359 --> 00:19:12,559
Speaker 1: Yes, So this was written by Mike Post, who we've

397
00:19:12,599 --> 00:19:14,160
talked about endlessly at this point.

398
00:19:14,359 --> 00:19:14,599
Speaker 2: Yeah.

399
00:19:14,599 --> 00:19:18,200
Speaker 1: Now, Mike Post worked heavily with Stephen Bosco, who is

400
00:19:18,240 --> 00:19:21,240
the guy that changed television in the eighties, right, I mean,

401
00:19:21,359 --> 00:19:26,200
responsible for so many phenomenal shows. And I don't know

402
00:19:26,240 --> 00:19:27,799
that I'm going to get to mention it in some

403
00:19:27,920 --> 00:19:31,119
other part, but just to throw onto the pile that

404
00:19:31,160 --> 00:19:33,400
I've already started with Mike Post. He also did the

405
00:19:33,599 --> 00:19:36,160
score for Law and Order, like all of them. He's

406
00:19:36,240 --> 00:19:39,240
responsible for Boom Boom.

407
00:19:39,240 --> 00:19:40,240
Speaker 3: Everybody knows that.

408
00:19:40,480 --> 00:19:45,599
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, So Stephen Bosco has this show. Mike Post

409
00:19:45,960 --> 00:19:48,200
watches the first episode and is blown away. He's like,

410
00:19:48,240 --> 00:19:51,440
this is the most fantastic thing I've ever seen. This

411
00:19:51,480 --> 00:19:54,480
is going to change television. The death at the end

412
00:19:54,599 --> 00:19:57,680
is like a freaking ballet. It's just it's mind blowing

413
00:19:57,720 --> 00:20:00,160
how good it is. And he's like, I have no

414
00:20:00,200 --> 00:20:02,920
idea what to do. So Steven Bosco says, well, what

415
00:20:03,000 --> 00:20:05,640
if you do something just completely against type? Like what

416
00:20:05,680 --> 00:20:07,599
if you do something that's not at all like what

417
00:20:07,799 --> 00:20:08,720
you would expect.

418
00:20:08,440 --> 00:20:08,759
Speaker 4: It to be.

419
00:20:08,920 --> 00:20:10,400
Speaker 3: It's like, I think I could do that.

420
00:20:10,640 --> 00:20:14,079
Speaker 1: Hangs up, the phone, sits down, the piano plays something

421
00:20:14,119 --> 00:20:16,720
in an e flat key, plays a few more things,

422
00:20:17,160 --> 00:20:19,880
and in thirty minutes. He's calling Steven Bosco back and

423
00:20:19,880 --> 00:20:22,039
he's like, I think I got it, and Bosco's like, hey, man,

424
00:20:22,119 --> 00:20:24,559
I don't want something out of your junk drawer, right yeah,

425
00:20:24,599 --> 00:20:27,000
And he's like, no, I just wrote this kind of

426
00:20:27,000 --> 00:20:29,000
come play it for you. He goes over to Steven

427
00:20:29,079 --> 00:20:31,720
Bosco plays it, and Steven Bosco.

428
00:20:31,480 --> 00:20:34,200
Speaker 3: Usually gives him he's he taught. He loves to talk about.

429
00:20:33,960 --> 00:20:36,720
Speaker 1: How these guys give him notes that are just the

430
00:20:36,799 --> 00:20:39,880
right amount of information to do something with, right, And

431
00:20:39,960 --> 00:20:43,440
so he's waiting for that and Steven Bosco says, that's it.

432
00:20:43,880 --> 00:20:44,599
Speaker 3: Don't change it.

433
00:20:44,759 --> 00:20:47,319
Speaker 1: And he's like, well, I'm thinking it needs some orchestration,

434
00:20:47,680 --> 00:20:49,799
and Bosco is like, it doesn't.

435
00:20:50,319 --> 00:20:52,759
Speaker 3: The piano is all you need. Don't change it.

436
00:20:52,880 --> 00:20:54,599
Speaker 1: Nice Now, when you hear it, you can hear a

437
00:20:54,599 --> 00:20:56,640
little bit of stuff in the background, but the piano

438
00:20:56,839 --> 00:21:00,480
is the key. It's the masthead for the entire piece.

439
00:21:00,559 --> 00:21:01,119
Speaker 3: And it is.

440
00:21:01,240 --> 00:21:04,960
Speaker 2: Beautiful, absolutely now. This song was released as a single

441
00:21:05,000 --> 00:21:07,799
August nineteen eighty one. I agree with you. This is

442
00:21:07,799 --> 00:21:09,799
not a show that I watched, but I love the

443
00:21:09,799 --> 00:21:13,319
theme song. Yeah, and it's going to appear whenever we

444
00:21:13,400 --> 00:21:17,119
do the late eighties on my list. I've reached number

445
00:21:17,279 --> 00:21:19,519
ten on the Hot one hundred.

446
00:21:19,759 --> 00:21:24,359
Speaker 1: Yes, just like rockord Files. And just like rockord Files,

447
00:21:24,440 --> 00:21:26,920
it got him another Grammy. This was his third Grammy

448
00:21:27,039 --> 00:21:28,319
Nice nineteen eighty one.

449
00:21:28,480 --> 00:21:31,599
Speaker 2: Okay, awesome, So we're now onto my number three, I believe.

450
00:21:31,640 --> 00:21:34,839
So all right, My number three is a song written

451
00:21:34,880 --> 00:21:41,160
by this guy named Mike Post. Okay, go ahead, take

452
00:21:41,200 --> 00:21:44,599
another shot, everybody, Mike Post. Okay. This one. He composed

453
00:21:44,599 --> 00:21:47,359
it with a guy named Peter Carpenter. This song reached

454
00:21:47,400 --> 00:21:49,559
number twenty five on the Hot one hundred and May

455
00:21:49,599 --> 00:21:53,160
of nineteen eighty two. Okay, it's an instrumental yep. This

456
00:21:53,240 --> 00:21:55,599
show ran from nineteen eighty to nineteen eighty eight.

457
00:21:56,079 --> 00:21:59,440
Speaker 1: And you can't hear this song without thinking about a

458
00:21:59,480 --> 00:22:14,279
Ferrari and Hawaiian shirts. Yes, yes, so this one again.

459
00:22:14,359 --> 00:22:17,279
We've timed this very well because this is my number two.

460
00:22:17,759 --> 00:22:18,039
Speaker 2: Wow.

461
00:22:18,160 --> 00:22:20,039
Speaker 1: Okay, this is my number two, so we would have

462
00:22:20,039 --> 00:22:23,000
been going straight into it anyway. As you mentioned, it's

463
00:22:23,359 --> 00:22:26,279
composed by Mike Post and his one of his partners,

464
00:22:26,400 --> 00:22:27,200
Pete Carpenter.

465
00:22:27,359 --> 00:22:27,599
Speaker 3: Yep.

466
00:22:27,680 --> 00:22:29,880
Speaker 1: By the way, just to throw this out there, he

467
00:22:29,960 --> 00:22:32,400
had like a group of guys that he would work with,

468
00:22:32,759 --> 00:22:35,759
you know that were it's like his company. Among them

469
00:22:35,799 --> 00:22:38,039
are several famous guys. I'm just gonna mention one of

470
00:22:38,079 --> 00:22:39,759
them because I'm gonna see if you can get this.

471
00:22:39,839 --> 00:22:40,559
Speaker 3: Okay, all right.

472
00:22:40,880 --> 00:22:42,880
Speaker 1: He had a guy who was on his staff of

473
00:22:42,920 --> 00:22:47,440
composers whose name was Walter Murphy. Okay, okay, And we

474
00:22:47,519 --> 00:22:51,039
talked about him briefly, very briefly on a previous episode

475
00:22:51,279 --> 00:22:55,160
covering an album where he did a disco version of

476
00:22:55,200 --> 00:22:59,160
a Beethoven song called a Fifth of Beethoven.

477
00:22:59,319 --> 00:23:01,359
Speaker 2: Yes, this is Saturday Night Fever.

478
00:23:01,599 --> 00:23:04,680
Speaker 3: You got it.

479
00:23:10,599 --> 00:23:15,079
Speaker 1: So one of Mike posts staff members is also a

480
00:23:15,119 --> 00:23:16,960
guy who's written a song on one of the best

481
00:23:16,960 --> 00:23:19,640
selling albums of all time. It's very interesting, this guy,

482
00:23:19,759 --> 00:23:22,240
Mike Post, that I've just discovered and was such a

483
00:23:22,279 --> 00:23:23,200
mover and shaker.

484
00:23:22,960 --> 00:23:23,440
Speaker 3: In the Wow.

485
00:23:23,640 --> 00:23:25,880
Speaker 2: That's cool. One of the things I thought was interesting

486
00:23:26,079 --> 00:23:30,160
is that Magnum p I the first ten episodes had

487
00:23:30,160 --> 00:23:32,640
a different theme song. It changes the entire tone of

488
00:23:32,680 --> 00:23:47,319
the show. Does that change everything about the show.

489
00:23:47,440 --> 00:23:50,480
Speaker 1: I can't believe that that was the theme song for

490
00:23:50,880 --> 00:23:55,119
ten full episodes. I have no memory of that, and

491
00:23:55,240 --> 00:23:59,480
it's so different. It was so right that they said,

492
00:23:59,480 --> 00:24:03,160
we've got it, ditch this and do something that kicks more.

493
00:24:03,400 --> 00:24:06,359
But that original one was by a guy named Ian

494
00:24:06,799 --> 00:24:08,079
Free Baron Smith.

495
00:24:08,480 --> 00:24:11,319
Speaker 2: I'll tell you something, Ian freeburn Smith does not drive

496
00:24:11,319 --> 00:24:14,279
a Ferrari, does not live in Hawaii, and does not

497
00:24:14,519 --> 00:24:17,119
the heart throb of every American babe in the early

498
00:24:17,200 --> 00:24:17,839
nineteen eighties.

499
00:24:17,920 --> 00:24:20,599
Speaker 1: Well, neither a Mike Post or Pep Carpenter. But they

500
00:24:20,640 --> 00:24:22,440
tapped into that vibe a little better than he did.

501
00:24:22,559 --> 00:24:23,200
Speaker 2: They sure didn't.

502
00:24:23,240 --> 00:24:24,839
Speaker 1: All right, so we kind of jumped into my number

503
00:24:24,880 --> 00:24:26,519
two with your number three there, Why don't you give

504
00:24:26,599 --> 00:24:28,160
us you're a number two?

505
00:24:29,960 --> 00:24:30,400
Speaker 5: Two?

506
00:24:31,000 --> 00:24:34,079
Speaker 2: Okay, this is the one I'm interested to see. I

507
00:24:34,119 --> 00:24:36,079
didn't know if it would make your list, but it's

508
00:24:36,160 --> 00:24:39,240
such a catchy instrumental from the eighties.

509
00:24:39,359 --> 00:24:39,680
Speaker 3: Okay.

510
00:24:39,880 --> 00:24:44,200
Speaker 2: This show ran from nineteen seventy eight to nineteen ninety one,

511
00:24:44,440 --> 00:24:46,640
so conceivably it could have been on all.

512
00:24:46,519 --> 00:24:47,960
Speaker 3: Three of these lists exactly.

513
00:24:48,039 --> 00:24:51,839
Speaker 2: Okay, all right, Friday nights on CBS, Uh huh, this

514
00:24:52,039 --> 00:24:55,599
was a main staple. But I'm telling you, in nineteen

515
00:24:55,640 --> 00:25:00,640
eighty there was a question, a cliffhanger that plagued American culture.

516
00:25:00,799 --> 00:25:01,599
Speaker 3: Who shot JR?

517
00:25:01,640 --> 00:25:23,559
Speaker 2: Who shot JR? This is the theme song Dallas.

518
00:25:25,119 --> 00:25:26,839
Speaker 3: So this one hovered on my list.

519
00:25:26,880 --> 00:25:29,839
Speaker 1: It definitely did, and since we're to that point, I

520
00:25:29,839 --> 00:25:32,480
will tell you it is one of my honorable mentions

521
00:25:32,559 --> 00:25:36,200
for this episode. So hearing that music makes me think

522
00:25:36,240 --> 00:25:37,319
it's time for me to go to bed.

523
00:25:39,240 --> 00:25:41,359
Speaker 2: This is not appropriate for you, d Graves, right.

524
00:25:41,480 --> 00:25:43,960
Speaker 1: So I would get done watching Dukes, Hazard and The

525
00:25:43,960 --> 00:25:46,359
Incredible Hulk, and then this music would start playing and

526
00:25:46,359 --> 00:25:47,799
it meant it was time for me to go back.

527
00:25:48,960 --> 00:25:51,680
Speaker 2: That's great, man. This song was composed by a guy

528
00:25:51,759 --> 00:25:55,680
named Gerald Ammel. He also did gun Smoke and Knots Landing.

529
00:25:55,839 --> 00:25:59,279
He contributed music to Walker, Texas Ranger, so he's done

530
00:25:59,319 --> 00:26:02,079
some stuff. So this song was actually a bigger hit

531
00:26:02,160 --> 00:26:05,960
in France, which is funny because they decided that that

532
00:26:06,160 --> 00:26:09,359
theme song was good, but it needed lyrics, so they

533
00:26:09,519 --> 00:26:12,920
added French lyrics and it became a hit on the

534
00:26:12,960 --> 00:26:13,920
French pop charts.

535
00:26:14,119 --> 00:26:27,799
Speaker 3: We've got to hear that.

536
00:26:28,359 --> 00:26:29,000
Speaker 4: But yah.

537
00:26:35,400 --> 00:26:36,720
Speaker 2: H us.

538
00:26:38,559 --> 00:26:41,640
Speaker 1: Apologies to all of our French listeners, but that is

539
00:26:41,759 --> 00:26:42,839
freaking hilarious.

540
00:26:42,880 --> 00:26:44,119
Speaker 2: That is terrible.

541
00:26:44,599 --> 00:26:48,440
Speaker 1: Oh my gosh, oh wow, that's so good.

542
00:26:49,000 --> 00:26:49,960
Speaker 3: Oh my gosh.

543
00:26:50,160 --> 00:26:52,640
Speaker 2: I got one more thing for you before we leave

544
00:26:52,759 --> 00:26:56,720
the Dallas theme song. Okay. Now, as you may know,

545
00:26:57,039 --> 00:27:00,359
I am a big Dallas Cowboys football fan. And in

546
00:27:00,400 --> 00:27:03,720
the nineties they when they signed Dion Sanders, it was

547
00:27:03,720 --> 00:27:07,279
a huge deal to Cowboy fans. And I remember Jerry

548
00:27:07,359 --> 00:27:11,480
Jones and Dion even Kevin Smith was in a commercial

549
00:27:11,880 --> 00:27:13,960
and they played the Dallas theme song and it was

550
00:27:14,039 --> 00:27:17,519
sort of the introduction of Deon Sanders as a cowboy.

551
00:27:20,319 --> 00:27:23,839
Speaker 3: I don't care what it takes, you get me Dion.

552
00:27:29,359 --> 00:27:42,759
Speaker 4: For you ready, I was born, Ready run cowboy.

553
00:27:42,880 --> 00:27:43,119
Speaker 5: Dang.

554
00:27:43,279 --> 00:27:45,519
Speaker 3: If I had eleven men like that, I could rule

555
00:27:45,519 --> 00:27:45,920
the world.

556
00:27:46,640 --> 00:27:46,960
Speaker 5: Guys.

557
00:27:47,599 --> 00:27:50,880
Speaker 2: It was a big deal. Yeah, as a Dallas fan. Okay,

558
00:27:51,079 --> 00:27:53,920
that's all I got for you on Dallas theme Okay.

559
00:27:54,000 --> 00:27:57,839
Speaker 1: So, as I mentioned, that is one of my honorable mentions.

560
00:27:57,440 --> 00:28:03,319
This other one it was exclusively on HBO. It involves

561
00:28:03,599 --> 00:28:07,759
some of the same type of creatures that your Number

562
00:28:07,839 --> 00:28:11,920
one involved from the nineteen seventy five to nineteen seventy

563
00:28:12,000 --> 00:28:13,720
nine episode you Got It.

564
00:28:13,680 --> 00:28:15,960
Speaker 2: I Got It, I Got It, And I'm disappointed in

565
00:28:16,039 --> 00:28:18,759
myself for not coming up with this. This has to

566
00:28:18,799 --> 00:28:22,160
be the theme song from Fraggle Rock.

567
00:28:40,000 --> 00:28:41,960
Speaker 1: So on the times that I was in front of

568
00:28:41,960 --> 00:28:45,880
a TV that got HBO. I was watching Fragle Rock

569
00:28:45,960 --> 00:28:47,319
and I loved this inro song.

570
00:28:47,480 --> 00:28:49,680
Speaker 2: It was a great song man and actually introduced all

571
00:28:49,720 --> 00:28:52,240
the characters. Yeah, kind of worked your way, you know

572
00:28:52,359 --> 00:28:56,480
through the world of the Fraggles. Understood they lived underneath

573
00:28:56,559 --> 00:28:58,839
the ground, and there's a dog that kind of chased them.

574
00:28:58,720 --> 00:29:01,559
Speaker 3: And they had the dozers and dump pile and Uncle

575
00:29:01,599 --> 00:29:02,359
traveling Matt.

576
00:29:02,480 --> 00:29:05,920
Speaker 2: That's it, that's it. Great show, great show. Okay, So

577
00:29:06,839 --> 00:29:08,200
is that your two honorable mentions?

578
00:29:08,440 --> 00:29:10,720
Speaker 3: My two honorable mentions Dallas and brockle Rock.

579
00:29:10,759 --> 00:29:12,960
Speaker 2: All right, so let me give you my two honorable

580
00:29:12,960 --> 00:29:15,480
mentions in that case. So I've got a song by

581
00:29:15,480 --> 00:29:21,480
this guy named Mike Post. Okay, this is a show

582
00:29:21,799 --> 00:29:26,759
never heard of him. This is a show that would

583
00:29:26,839 --> 00:29:31,440
literally fire automatic weapons every show and no one ever

584
00:29:31,519 --> 00:29:34,200
got shot. So they made a movie about this in

585
00:29:34,200 --> 00:29:38,680
the two thousands, starring Bradley Cooper and Liam Neeson.

586
00:29:39,480 --> 00:29:41,440
Speaker 3: Okay, I've got it, what you got?

587
00:29:41,480 --> 00:29:44,480
Speaker 1: What you got a baracas, it's mister t it's the

588
00:29:44,599 --> 00:29:59,400
A team.

589
00:29:59,599 --> 00:30:01,839
Speaker 3: By the way, That one will probably come up again

590
00:30:01,920 --> 00:30:02,920
in a futureps.

591
00:30:03,240 --> 00:30:05,640
Speaker 2: Okay, all right, cool, great theme song right here by

592
00:30:05,680 --> 00:30:09,960
the way. TV anchorman, Al Roker plays this before he

593
00:30:10,000 --> 00:30:14,079
goes on the air to get himself siched, that's fantastic.

594
00:30:14,440 --> 00:30:17,319
Speaker 1: That is the best tidbit we've had yet.

595
00:30:17,400 --> 00:30:19,200
Speaker 3: Fantastic, Yeah, Roker.

596
00:30:19,440 --> 00:30:22,319
Speaker 2: Well, it's so important for a weatherman to be stoked.

597
00:30:24,440 --> 00:30:25,039
Speaker 3: That's great.

598
00:30:25,240 --> 00:30:27,160
Speaker 2: Okay, So that's honorable mention number one.

599
00:30:27,240 --> 00:30:27,839
Speaker 3: Yep, all right.

600
00:30:27,920 --> 00:30:32,160
Speaker 2: Honorable mention number two is by a guy named Stu

601
00:30:32,240 --> 00:30:35,119
Phillips and Glenn Larson. Now, Glenn Larson is the same

602
00:30:35,160 --> 00:30:38,480
guy that developed the Fall Guy. Yes, and the theme

603
00:30:38,559 --> 00:30:39,519
song with a Fall Guy.

604
00:30:39,640 --> 00:30:40,119
Speaker 3: Yes.

605
00:30:40,160 --> 00:30:43,480
Speaker 2: He actually stole pieces of this theme song from a

606
00:30:43,640 --> 00:30:45,680
French classical piece of music.

607
00:30:45,799 --> 00:30:47,160
Speaker 3: Okay, all right, Yeah.

608
00:30:47,279 --> 00:30:50,119
Speaker 2: This show ran from nineteen eighty two to nineteen eighty six,

609
00:30:50,480 --> 00:30:55,559
and it is a very very synthesizer futuristic sounding for

610
00:30:55,680 --> 00:30:56,480
nineteen eighty two.

611
00:30:56,720 --> 00:30:57,359
Speaker 3: Is this night Writer?

612
00:30:57,680 --> 00:30:57,880
Speaker 2: Yes?

613
00:30:57,920 --> 00:31:10,720
Speaker 5: It is.

614
00:31:11,119 --> 00:31:13,160
Speaker 2: Okay, so Night Writers on your next episode.

615
00:31:13,279 --> 00:31:15,799
Speaker 1: Night Writer will be making an appearance in the next

616
00:31:15,880 --> 00:31:17,200
episode probably.

617
00:31:16,960 --> 00:31:19,599
Speaker 2: Okay, all right, cool show. A guy who talks to

618
00:31:19,640 --> 00:31:22,839
his car lives in the shadowy world of anonymous man

619
00:31:22,839 --> 00:31:25,559
who doesn't exist. I still don't really understand the plot

620
00:31:26,440 --> 00:31:29,519
other than David Hasselhoff and a talking.

621
00:31:29,240 --> 00:31:31,559
Speaker 3: Car they both look so cool. It didn't matter. It

622
00:31:31,599 --> 00:31:34,240
didn't matter, all right, So here we are. We are

623
00:31:34,279 --> 00:31:36,000
to our number one.

624
00:31:38,680 --> 00:31:46,039
Speaker 1: One. Since you have already listed my number one in

625
00:31:46,079 --> 00:31:49,400
your spiel just a bit ago, we haven't. We didn't

626
00:31:49,480 --> 00:31:52,079
name it, so I'll bring it back to you now.

627
00:31:52,240 --> 00:31:56,480
This song went to number two involves a guy that

628
00:31:56,559 --> 00:31:58,920
you might have heard of named Mike Post was kept

629
00:31:58,920 --> 00:32:01,279
out of the number one spot by Endless Love by

630
00:32:01,319 --> 00:32:03,160
Diana Ross and Lionel Ritchie.

631
00:32:03,240 --> 00:32:11,680
Speaker 2: This song is called Believe It or Not on It

632
00:32:12,079 --> 00:32:12,799
I never.

633
00:32:19,440 --> 00:32:19,559
Speaker 4: So.

634
00:32:19,720 --> 00:32:23,440
Speaker 1: This is the theme song for Greatest American Hero nineteen

635
00:32:23,480 --> 00:32:26,480
eighty one to nineteen eighty three. I gotta tell you,

636
00:32:26,920 --> 00:32:29,319
I loved watching the show when I was a kid,

637
00:32:29,400 --> 00:32:31,920
but I was a little kid, and so in the

638
00:32:32,039 --> 00:32:34,279
not too distant past, I thought, I'm gonna check.

639
00:32:34,160 --> 00:32:35,279
Speaker 3: This thing out again. Yeah.

640
00:32:35,839 --> 00:32:39,200
Speaker 1: The pilot episode for this show is two hours long,

641
00:32:40,039 --> 00:32:45,079
like it's a big establishing show wow. And the beginning

642
00:32:45,079 --> 00:32:49,039
of the show is intense, like it is an African

643
00:32:49,079 --> 00:32:55,319
American running from this group of skinheads in these dune

644
00:32:55,319 --> 00:32:59,200
buggies and he doesn't make it to the opening credits. Man,

645
00:32:59,640 --> 00:33:02,640
I mean, it is in tense, and I was like, Wow,

646
00:33:02,680 --> 00:33:04,079
I'm glad they got a little more of a sense

647
00:33:04,119 --> 00:33:07,039
of humor along the way. But great intro, like, this

648
00:33:07,200 --> 00:33:11,000
is definitely a redoable show. They could come back. This

649
00:33:11,160 --> 00:33:13,000
was This is one of those things that I think

650
00:33:13,039 --> 00:33:14,519
is begging for a reboot.

651
00:33:14,680 --> 00:33:17,000
Speaker 2: So remind me. How does he get his powers?

652
00:33:17,160 --> 00:33:20,480
Speaker 1: It comes from an alien ship, and what we learned

653
00:33:20,519 --> 00:33:24,240
through the series is that, like the aliens, probably their

654
00:33:24,279 --> 00:33:27,759
planet was destroyed and so their objective is to give

655
00:33:27,799 --> 00:33:31,400
this suit which gives him basically superman like powers that

656
00:33:31,480 --> 00:33:35,400
he goes on to discover throughout the series in order

657
00:33:35,440 --> 00:33:38,960
to protect the planet from the destruction that their planet faced.

658
00:33:39,160 --> 00:33:41,319
Speaker 3: All right, yeah that's right, Yeah.

659
00:33:41,079 --> 00:33:43,799
Speaker 1: Okay, And so the beauty is it comes with an

660
00:33:43,839 --> 00:33:47,480
instruction manual. The plot point of the series is he

661
00:33:47,640 --> 00:33:51,480
loses the instruction at the very beginning, so he has

662
00:33:51,680 --> 00:33:54,240
no idea what he can do. He has no idea

663
00:33:54,319 --> 00:33:57,119
how to land, which means that he can fly, but

664
00:33:57,240 --> 00:33:59,880
he doesn't do so good on planning the landing.

665
00:34:00,000 --> 00:34:02,720
Speaker 2: This show was super fun. I enjoyed it.

666
00:34:02,799 --> 00:34:03,799
Speaker 3: Here's an interesting thing.

667
00:34:03,839 --> 00:34:06,119
Speaker 1: We mentioned that this came out in nineteen eighty one,

668
00:34:06,240 --> 00:34:08,559
right early nineteen eighty one. Yeah, you know what else

669
00:34:08,599 --> 00:34:12,360
happened early nineteen eighty one. No, it involved the president

670
00:34:12,440 --> 00:34:13,800
of the United States at the time.

671
00:34:13,960 --> 00:34:18,039
Speaker 3: Has been shot exactly. Yeah, the main character in this show,

672
00:34:18,360 --> 00:34:21,280
his name was Hinckley. No, so when that.

673
00:34:21,400 --> 00:34:24,840
Speaker 1: Happened, they did a quick switch through changed his name

674
00:34:25,000 --> 00:34:29,280
to Hainley for a while until kind of the bluster

675
00:34:29,519 --> 00:34:33,599
about everything blew over with John Hinckley Junior and changed

676
00:34:33,599 --> 00:34:34,800
it back to Hinckley later on.

677
00:34:35,000 --> 00:34:37,679
Speaker 2: Wow, that's a great tidbit right there, thanks man.

678
00:34:38,119 --> 00:34:41,400
Speaker 1: So, as we mentioned, written by Mike Post, he gets

679
00:34:41,480 --> 00:34:43,920
the info on what the show is supposed to be about.

680
00:34:43,960 --> 00:34:46,320
He's like a guy in a super suit that he

681
00:34:46,320 --> 00:34:49,599
doesn't know how to work, and a like ultra right

682
00:34:49,639 --> 00:34:53,920
wing CI agent as his kind of handler. What the heck?

683
00:34:53,960 --> 00:34:55,840
How am I supposed to write a theme song about that?

684
00:34:56,079 --> 00:34:58,840
And so he's a music guy. He gets the music

685
00:34:58,920 --> 00:35:01,519
and he goes to his part, Stephen Geyer, and Stephen

686
00:35:01,559 --> 00:35:04,480
Geyer is like, well, what if we make the lyrics

687
00:35:04,519 --> 00:35:07,199
something that's like could also be like a love song?

688
00:35:07,400 --> 00:35:10,519
And that's how believe it or not, I'm walking on air.

689
00:35:10,639 --> 00:35:11,719
I never thought I could.

690
00:35:11,599 --> 00:35:12,239
Speaker 3: Be so free.

691
00:35:12,440 --> 00:35:13,239
Speaker 2: Well that's good.

692
00:35:13,480 --> 00:35:17,480
Speaker 1: Sung by a guy named Joe Scarberry, who Mike Post

693
00:35:17,559 --> 00:35:20,400
had produced and other things, hadn't had any real success,

694
00:35:20,599 --> 00:35:24,159
but had a great voice and so memorable.

695
00:35:23,639 --> 00:35:24,199
Speaker 3: For this song.

696
00:35:24,719 --> 00:35:27,079
Speaker 1: As a matter of fact, this song was really the

697
00:35:27,119 --> 00:35:30,159
inspiration for this episode because I was in my kitchen

698
00:35:30,639 --> 00:35:32,840
my wife or my kids said something like Believe it

699
00:35:32,920 --> 00:35:34,800
or Not, and I was like, oh, we should do

700
00:35:34,880 --> 00:35:38,239
a show about TV themes, and I called you up.

701
00:35:38,440 --> 00:35:40,079
Speaker 2: Nice, there we go, there you go?

702
00:35:40,280 --> 00:35:41,039
Speaker 3: Yeah? Cool?

703
00:35:41,119 --> 00:35:43,719
Speaker 2: Okay, So I guess that brings us to my number

704
00:35:43,719 --> 00:35:44,599
one number one?

705
00:35:45,039 --> 00:35:46,599
Speaker 3: All right, I'm excited.

706
00:35:46,800 --> 00:35:49,440
Speaker 2: Okay, I'm rather shocked that we haven't come across it

707
00:35:49,599 --> 00:35:50,000
so far.

708
00:35:50,239 --> 00:35:50,599
Speaker 3: Okay.

709
00:35:50,719 --> 00:35:53,159
Speaker 2: I would bet money that it's on your next episode though,

710
00:35:53,159 --> 00:35:53,480
could be.

711
00:35:53,760 --> 00:35:53,880
Speaker 4: So.

712
00:35:54,000 --> 00:35:58,440
Speaker 2: This was written by two people who basically were inexperienced

713
00:35:58,719 --> 00:36:02,920
and unqualified to write a TV jingle. Okay, they tried

714
00:36:03,000 --> 00:36:06,480
three times and were rejected. In twenty eleven, Rolling Stone

715
00:36:06,559 --> 00:36:08,719
named this the greatest TV theme song of all time.

716
00:36:08,960 --> 00:36:11,400
Speaker 1: I think I know what it is. Okay, I think

717
00:36:11,440 --> 00:36:13,320
it is going to be in a future episode.

718
00:36:13,559 --> 00:36:14,000
Speaker 2: Okay.

719
00:36:14,199 --> 00:36:24,360
Speaker 1: Does this TV show involve a guy name Norm?

720
00:36:24,360 --> 00:36:28,480
Speaker 5: Making your way in the world today takes everything you've got.

721
00:36:29,840 --> 00:36:32,039
Taking a break from all your worries.

722
00:36:32,119 --> 00:36:36,119
Speaker 2: So listen. This song is called where Everybody Knows Your Name.

723
00:36:36,320 --> 00:36:39,159
Speaker 1: Dude, I can't tell you how much I love this song,

724
00:36:39,320 --> 00:36:41,119
but I will in our next episode.

725
00:36:41,800 --> 00:36:51,440
Speaker 5: Sometimes the body knows your name. They always bach came.

726
00:36:53,599 --> 00:36:56,960
Speaker 1: This song, as you mentioned, was written by guy who

727
00:36:57,000 --> 00:36:58,960
really didn't have experience doing this.

728
00:36:59,320 --> 00:37:01,239
Speaker 3: His name was Garry Portnoy. Right.

729
00:37:01,519 --> 00:37:04,280
Speaker 1: I was sure when I would listen to this that

730
00:37:04,320 --> 00:37:05,519
Woody Harrelson was singing.

731
00:37:05,800 --> 00:37:06,719
Speaker 2: Yeah, it kind of sounds like.

732
00:37:06,800 --> 00:37:08,840
Speaker 1: It sounded so much like I would listen to it

733
00:37:08,840 --> 00:37:10,519
sometimes and be like, Okay, that's not Woody, and then

734
00:37:10,559 --> 00:37:12,519
other times it'd be like, oh, dude, that's Woody singing

735
00:37:12,519 --> 00:37:15,239
the song. I could not verify, but there are a

736
00:37:15,280 --> 00:37:17,599
ton of people out there who share my opinion.

737
00:37:17,400 --> 00:37:19,639
Speaker 3: Like everybody's. Like, I was sure it was Woody Harrelson

738
00:37:19,719 --> 00:37:20,800
singing this song, it's not.

739
00:37:20,960 --> 00:37:23,119
Speaker 2: What the problem is is that the song predates Woody

740
00:37:23,119 --> 00:37:25,719
Harrelson's association with cheers. So listen to this. So it's

741
00:37:25,760 --> 00:37:30,039
written by Gary Portnoy and Judy hart Angelo. Okay, Judy

742
00:37:30,119 --> 00:37:33,400
heart Angelo was sitting next to a Broadway producer at dinner,

743
00:37:34,280 --> 00:37:36,840
knowing that she worked for a music producer he asked

744
00:37:36,840 --> 00:37:39,639
her if she could recommend anyone to produce a score

745
00:37:40,519 --> 00:37:42,840
for a musical that he was looking for. So she

746
00:37:43,159 --> 00:37:46,159
knew and recommended Gary Portnoy. Well, he had never written

747
00:37:46,199 --> 00:37:49,199
for theater before, right, and she had never ever written

748
00:37:49,199 --> 00:37:49,880
a song.

749
00:37:50,079 --> 00:37:50,679
Speaker 3: Yeah. Nothing.

750
00:37:50,760 --> 00:37:53,559
Speaker 2: So they get together and they write the musical Preppies.

751
00:37:53,840 --> 00:37:56,320
From that, there's a song called people Like Us and

752
00:37:56,320 --> 00:37:59,239
they actually submitted that to be the theme song for cheers.

753
00:37:59,440 --> 00:38:03,119
Ye liked it, but they're like, it's not quite right. Rejected, okay.

754
00:38:03,719 --> 00:38:05,760
Then they came up with another song called My Kind

755
00:38:05,800 --> 00:38:06,239
of People.

756
00:38:06,960 --> 00:38:08,000
Speaker 3: Rejected yea.

757
00:38:08,320 --> 00:38:10,480
Speaker 2: Then they came up with another song called Another Day,

758
00:38:11,159 --> 00:38:14,920
rejected okay. So Gary Portnoy sat down at the piano

759
00:38:15,199 --> 00:38:16,639
and he wanted to kind of get the feel of

760
00:38:16,639 --> 00:38:18,519
the bar. So he sat down at the piano and

761
00:38:18,639 --> 00:38:22,599
played sort of the sad bar love song medley, and

762
00:38:22,639 --> 00:38:26,320
when he got some times you want to Go, then

763
00:38:26,360 --> 00:38:27,000
it took off.

764
00:38:27,440 --> 00:38:27,880
Speaker 5: Nice.

765
00:38:28,079 --> 00:38:30,119
Speaker 1: That's awesome and such a great song. I mean, it

766
00:38:30,199 --> 00:38:33,039
just makes you feel like you belong somewhere. Now, if

767
00:38:33,079 --> 00:38:35,960
you listen to the full version of this song, you

768
00:38:36,039 --> 00:38:36,679
get some.

769
00:38:36,639 --> 00:38:40,440
Speaker 3: Weird lyrics, Yeah, the original.

770
00:38:39,880 --> 00:38:41,800
Speaker 1: Opening lyrics, even when they came up with the song.

771
00:38:41,840 --> 00:38:45,480
The original opening lyrics are not what we end up getting.

772
00:38:45,679 --> 00:38:49,199
The original opening lyrics were singing the blues when.

773
00:38:49,079 --> 00:38:52,320
Speaker 3: The Red Sox lose. It's a crisis in your life,

774
00:38:52,800 --> 00:38:56,039
on the run because all your girlfriends want to be

775
00:38:56,199 --> 00:39:01,440
your wife, and the laundry took it. It's in the wash.

776
00:39:02,000 --> 00:39:03,599
I'm super glad they changed this letter.

777
00:39:03,840 --> 00:39:05,480
Speaker 2: Laundry tickets are in the wash.

778
00:39:05,639 --> 00:39:08,440
Speaker 3: Yeah, okay, I don't even understand what that means.

779
00:39:08,480 --> 00:39:11,320
Speaker 2: Wow, I'm glad we got what we got.

780
00:39:11,639 --> 00:39:12,880
