Speaker 1: Juicys Hot Gods ever come.
Speaker 2: Stay on Top in the high Wood Shovel. The lead
Speaker 2: story was that something bad happened on a boat, and
Speaker 2: we will get to that in a minute.
Speaker 1: See I'm burying the lead.
Speaker 3: Did you see like an s E A.
Speaker 2: Well, what I did is I teased it and then
Speaker 2: we're teasing it further. We're testing the patients of the
Speaker 2: listeners on a Thursday.
Speaker 1: So you guys remember Firefest? Oh yeah, never forget it.
Speaker 2: Two documentaries about it. Billy McFarlane, the guy created Firefest.
Speaker 2: Jaw Rule they actually booked Blank on two eighty two
Speaker 2: did play jaw Rule got heavily involved.
Speaker 1: Then Billy McFarlane, the creator had due litle jail time.
Speaker 1: We had five years.
Speaker 2: I think, well, he's been a little cocky over the
Speaker 2: last year and he is like, we're doing Firefest too,
Speaker 2: and details coming and let's go, let's do BFD at Firefest.
Speaker 1: Okay, it is okay.
Speaker 4: I find it, on one hand, hard to believe that
Speaker 4: he would be able to do such thing, and he's
Speaker 4: already gone to prison time because the first one was
Speaker 4: such a scam. But I do think the general public
Speaker 4: people in general are stupid enough to fall for it again,
Speaker 4: and it's already got branding equity.
Speaker 1: The name of it out.
Speaker 4: There's the same reason they make dumb sequels to bad movies.
Speaker 2: You think about all these things that you think about
Speaker 2: the documentaries what happened?
Speaker 1: You think about the sandwich picture.
Speaker 2: You think about the guy who said, look, if I
Speaker 2: need to go s a little d for some bottles of.
Speaker 4: Water, he was willing to do that, and had he
Speaker 4: threw that out there, ye right, we have plenty of water.
Speaker 4: You still I'm saying I would do that for more water.
Speaker 1: We just needed a few more gallons. Okay, man, that's
Speaker 1: what he said. I'm so offended by Christina laughing at that.
Speaker 1: Oh you laughed, louder I did, didn't I.
Speaker 2: So you know, he went on Instagram and he's been
Speaker 2: defending this lately because people are like, Okay, you're not
Speaker 2: going to do it.
Speaker 1: You're not going to do it.
Speaker 2: But he made the official announcement and saying that, and
Speaker 2: this is eight years after the original you know happened. Now, Well,
Speaker 2: the tourism board at the islands that he's planning to
Speaker 2: do this at I love Muhetash like the Island of Women.
Speaker 2: They're like, no, we don't have anything. No one's contacted
Speaker 2: us about anything, and we would never take on a
Speaker 2: fake festival. So no, so we don't know is this
Speaker 2: happening or not. They're like, this doesn't exist. And Billy
Speaker 2: is like my partners and I ever made in communication
Speaker 2: with local and state government and all this stuff. It's
Speaker 2: very Now have they put ticket prices online and all
Speaker 2: that luxury experiences that you know they're not gonna have.
Speaker 1: How much are the tickets right now?
Speaker 2: You know what, that's a good question. Let me go
Speaker 2: to firefest dot com.
Speaker 4: Is that other guy popping up going if I have
Speaker 4: to give some HJS to make this happen, I absolutely will.
Speaker 2: I'm on the website, believe it or not. The website
Speaker 2: doesn't work very well. So there, that's good. God, I
Speaker 2: think that's I like what Ben's thinking about it. It
Speaker 2: makes it even more intriguing and mysterious.
Speaker 4: Right, yeah, right, it really happened and this is all
Speaker 4: free pub now you're talking about it on the Eagle now.
Speaker 1: And look how it's worked out for the island of Moharis. Right.
Speaker 1: They're like, we did agreed to nothing. I think over
Speaker 1: in the Mediterranean, the island of Lesbos is like, hey,
Speaker 1: we went in on this too.
Speaker 2: Yeah, dude, did you ever go to the island of Lesbos?
Speaker 1: I've always wanted to go. No, I have it.
Speaker 2: Tickets for Firefest too went on sale at the end
Speaker 2: of February. I found it fourteen hundred to twenty five
Speaker 2: thousand dollars.
Speaker 1: Yeah, John Oh. They also got the one million dollar
Speaker 1: package too. Okay, you get that one. Okay, so you
Speaker 1: get to join Blink one Okay. Refundable ticket options have
Speaker 1: been guaranteed. Should the festival be cancing May thirtieth through
Speaker 1: June second, is the time? Billy said, uh yes, let's
Speaker 1: say Thursday said Tuesday. We have talent artist, athletes and
Speaker 1: other performers are on board and scheduled for fire to
Speaker 1: one of those athletes, Antonio Brown.
Speaker 2: Nice, that definitely lines up pretty stable. All right, so
Speaker 2: you know, more updates on Firefest as needed. Let's talk
Speaker 2: about what happened on that boat. So there's a cruise
Speaker 2: called the eighties Cruise. For instance, I'll go to you
Speaker 2: last year's lineup. Would you see that last year's lineup?
Speaker 2: Not that year was Wang Chung Hell yeah, air supply
Speaker 2: hell yeah, Soft cell ah dog, The English Beat, Debbie
Speaker 2: Gibson and thirty eight Special.
Speaker 1: God, thirty eight Special doesn't match any of those thirty
Speaker 1: grand socialist badass. I agree, dude, the best thing on there.
Speaker 1: In fact, I would probably just go on line her.
Speaker 1: I'd just go on to thirty eight Special. Cruise. You know,
Speaker 1: all right? What are their songs? Hold on loosely and
Speaker 1: don't let go.
Speaker 2: Out now before we get into what happened that's bad
Speaker 2: on the boat, let me tell you next year, the
Speaker 2: twenty twenty six eighties cruise lineup is out, all right,
Speaker 2: Brett Michaels now Rogers and Chic.
Speaker 1: Hold on, Brett Michael oh from uh Poison? Yeah? Okay,
Speaker 1: Gary Newman, Wait, go back?
Speaker 2: Did you say chic cars Billy Ocean?
Speaker 1: I think chic is more than seventies man. I think
Speaker 1: one of your family members Berlin. Uh yeah, so my
Speaker 1: wife's cousin is the keyboard player for Berlin. Which one?
Speaker 1: Uh the game picture of it's pretty good, the gay one.
Speaker 1: They all look a little gay.
Speaker 4: Uh.
Speaker 1: They So they got real interesting because they were like
Speaker 1: a new wave Cali band that started playing like a
Speaker 1: lot of right wing conservative parties. Next year, Sugarhill Gang.
Speaker 2: Okay, you don't get all of the guns and roses,
Speaker 2: but you do get Steven Adler.
Speaker 1: Ouch, So the number fourth ranked guns.
Speaker 2: And rows quiet right, men without hats, Rob Bass, cool
Speaker 2: mod and there's your there's your next year.
Speaker 4: Look at at at this cruise. Rob Bass had it's
Speaker 4: it takes two. Did you have any other songs?
Speaker 1: Yeah, he had join Pain. Oh that's right, Joy and Pain.
Speaker 1: Come on, come on, come on, suns shine. Yeah, yeah,
Speaker 1: and give it up, to give it up. So it's
Speaker 1: a seven day cruise. And here's the catch.
Speaker 2: You know, you can see all these you know, these
Speaker 2: icons in the eighties and they also hang out with you.
Speaker 1: Oh allegedly you got nothing else to do. I know
Speaker 1: you're on a cruise. I want to hang out with
Speaker 1: the two Old Queens and Soft Cell. So here's a
Speaker 1: few of the bands that were on this year. Minute Work, Tiffany,
Speaker 1: adam Ant, Squeeze Dude, adam Ant. I'd like to take
Speaker 1: moment to give him his props. Seriously, there's really never
Speaker 1: been anyone like adam Ant. He kind of had he
Speaker 1: kind of man. It was kind of new wavy, kind
Speaker 1: of pop, kind of little bit punk, and he dressed
Speaker 1: like a pirate and his name was adam Ant. I
Speaker 1: mean that guy F's songs, Uh desper It but not
Speaker 1: series and then ant music dun dunt dun dump, Well
Speaker 1: do you do good, don't drink don't.
Speaker 4: Yeah, it was like swing what not swing type of it.
Speaker 4: So it's the same era as like Stray Cats.
Speaker 1: It kind of had a little He was a British guy,
Speaker 1: kind of had a little bit of the clash, a
Speaker 1: little bit of new wave. He was really his own thing. Man.
Speaker 1: He was sort of like a more watered down Billy
Speaker 1: idol and he got so much on the pantheon of
Speaker 1: rock beast. He's an ant turn it up.
Speaker 3: Yeah, this is the video.
Speaker 1: So this is ant music and it's not the proper sonics.
Speaker 1: I don't like it. Just wait. I just feels like
Speaker 1: I have to have this side of the podcast.
Speaker 2: All right.
Speaker 1: We gave him his prompts. He doesn't matter to this story.
Speaker 1: He's there. You brought him up.
Speaker 2: The glam metal band Faster pussy Cat Let's Go is
Speaker 2: your headliner, not the headlining act on the cruise, but
Speaker 2: they've become the headliner, is there? One of the bands
Speaker 2: something bad app fiance of the lead singer a Faster
Speaker 2: pussy Cat was a fifty six year old woman by
Speaker 2: the name of Kimberly Birch, and I said it was
Speaker 2: because she's presumed dead. She fell overboard after an argument
Speaker 2: with the lead singer, Timey Down. His name is spelled
Speaker 2: t A I M E.
Speaker 1: Timy. Yeah, maybe it's Tamy, that's.
Speaker 4: Who they were engaged together.
Speaker 2: Yeah, Okay, it's unclear if she jumped or accidentally fell,
Speaker 2: but there's witnesses and they're like like that they were arguing.
Speaker 1: It's allegedly on camera too.
Speaker 2: According to this passenger who got contacted by the Hollywood.
Speaker 1: Reporter, this feels so Natalie Wood. Dude.
Speaker 2: Squeeze was the band playing that night. There was an
Speaker 2: announcement over the pa saying someone went overboard, so the
Speaker 2: ship was going to stop and turn around and try
Speaker 2: to locate the person. The ship stopped for a few hours.
Speaker 2: My wife spoke with some people on one of the
Speaker 2: decks saying that they heard it was a woman and
Speaker 2: it was caught on camera. Eventually the ship powered up
Speaker 2: and off we went. Was uh was Paul Carrick singing
Speaker 2: with Squeeze? I have no idea on that one.
Speaker 1: So they never found her. No, they didn't find her.
Speaker 2: They the US Coast Guard took over after they kind
Speaker 2: of went back for a couple hours, like they stopped, like, okay,
Speaker 2: let's get some boats.
Speaker 1: Faster.
Speaker 2: Pussy Cats still had a job to do though, Oh
Speaker 2: my oh. And they went out, Oh my God without
Speaker 2: the lead singer and did covers.
Speaker 1: Okay, cruise, No, they just did instrumental versions of all
Speaker 1: their songs.
Speaker 4: So everyone, what did he do? Just go to try
Speaker 4: to get a copy of the tape?
Speaker 1: I wonder? Yeah, right, No, he actually joined Squeeze on stage.
Speaker 1: He had joined Adam an Uh I hurt Paul Krrick
Speaker 1: wasn't going to be with them, so I'll join them.
Speaker 2: That is now the number two reason I would never
Speaker 2: like to go into Cruise because maybe three.
Speaker 1: What are the others?
Speaker 2: Well, one is the Pooh virus, Yeah if you could,
Speaker 2: I mean it's easily obtained. Two is just being trapped
Speaker 2: somewhere in that feeling of being trapped, because the implication, yeah,
Speaker 2: I just know where to go, and like if you're bored,
Speaker 2: I don't want to be here anymore. So what am
Speaker 2: I going to do? I might panic and jump, right,
Speaker 2: maybe that's what happened.
Speaker 4: I do have that sensation, like if you're looking over something,
Speaker 4: you're looking at a super hall time, there's something in you.
Speaker 1: It's like jump. You just admitted to something that got
Speaker 1: really weird, and I'm concerned.
Speaker 3: I my mind does the same thing. It's just like
Speaker 3: when you have a knife in your hand, young Oh
Speaker 3: cut your hand. Oh my god, Christina, is this weird
Speaker 3: thing in your head that just goes off?
Speaker 4: Let me get you a one hundred number. What does
Speaker 4: the voice sound like, Christina that tells you, yeah, exactly
Speaker 4: like that you squirted.
Speaker 1: A little bit. Whatever. I see a knife on a table. Now,
Speaker 1: there's a voice in my head that says, do not
Speaker 1: be around Christina a knife. Well, I'll never go to
Speaker 1: a steakhouse with Christina.
Speaker 3: Just keep the knives away from me.
Speaker 1: It's fine.
Speaker 2: So more details will will come from this if you
Speaker 2: find the tape that is alleged from a passenger's wife
Speaker 2: on the cruise.
Speaker 1: I heard there's a tape.
Speaker 4: Hell you didn't And not only that, not only that
Speaker 4: they're fans of the band Faster pussy Cat. Can you
Speaker 4: really trust any of these people. It's not like they
Speaker 4: were having trouble filling out the lineup this year. If
Speaker 4: they had to resort to adam Ant and adam Man.
Speaker 1: Is badass, and he's already dressed like a pirate, so
Speaker 1: it makes sense for a cruise ship.
Speaker 3: The one cool thing about him, he is dressed like
Speaker 3: a pirate, a really cool pirate.
Speaker 1: It's also weird that men and work are still men
Speaker 1: at work like you do.
Speaker 4: They're playing overkill, they're out doing is homie with them
Speaker 4: or did they replace him?
Speaker 1: How do you be men at work without Colin? Hey, dude,
Speaker 1: he's a solo artist. Now he can he can go
Speaker 1: do all those songs on his own and fill up
Speaker 1: the majesty. Who's the lead singer? That's what I'm saying.
Speaker 1: I'm sure they replaced him. The guy from Faster Pussycats,
Speaker 1: the Asian guy from Journey.
Speaker 4: I'm available. All right, There you have it. There is
Speaker 4: the Hollywood Shuffle. You sound surprised. I didn't have a
Speaker 4: lot of faith in him. Yeah, he came through though, solid, solid,
Speaker 4: all right? Coming up next and around the sports, what
Speaker 4: do you have on deck? Kevin Well?
Speaker 2: Klay Thompson's dad does radio, and he said something that
Speaker 2: we should investigate. Next
