Recording in progress.
Speaker B:Well, that's the show, ladies and gentlemen.
Speaker B:Hope you like it.
Speaker C:Yeah, that's like when I take a picture or, no, take a video.
Speaker C:And you take a video for about five minutes and you turn it off and then it ends up turning on.
Speaker B:It's like.
Speaker B:Which reminds me, Todd, I don't know if we're officially rolling yet.
Speaker B:I have questions for you about the last episode, but I want to do it on the air.
Speaker B:Are we.
Speaker B:Is this going to be part of the show?
Speaker A:Oh, yeah, for sure.
Speaker A:This is the introduction before I hit the int.
Speaker A:Yeah, you got it, folks.
Speaker A:It's me again with a little attitude.
Speaker A:For all you out here in white bread land.
Speaker A:Let's see, we're on 92 FM tonight.
Speaker A:It feels like a nice, clean little band so far.
Speaker A:No one else is using it.
Speaker A:The price is right, don't you find you Crusty Dave?
Speaker A:This is bigger than friendship.
Speaker A:This is what you call cousin.
Speaker B:The Buddhists call it, let me see.
Speaker A:Reincarnation.
Speaker A:We see musi.
Speaker A:Hey, wait a minute.
Speaker A:Since when is Pismo beach inside a cave?
Speaker A:I wonder.
Speaker A:You know, I just bet we should have turned left at Albuquerque and then maybe a right turn at la.
Speaker B:Shush.
Speaker A:Hush, please.
Speaker B:Okay, so beginning of last episode, you're talking about all your difficulties.
Speaker B:A figuring out the parking garage that you work at, and then figuring out bananas and then figuring out doors and fobs and everything.
Speaker B:So my question to you is, what fucking installation in Winnipeg, Manitoba, needs that much security?
Speaker B:All the nation's defenses do they filter through Winnipeg, Manitoba?
Speaker B:And if that's the case, help me feel better about that situation.
Speaker B:Knowing someone like you is in charge of the missiles when you can't get into your own fucking parking garage and you somehow unpeeled a rotten banana and then you got your fob stuck in something like, help me out here.
Speaker A:Well, that's why he's got two kids.
Speaker A:He got his fob stuck in something.
Speaker B:So wouldn't come out.
Speaker A:He could pull it out.
Speaker B:Oh, God, I hope he doesn't work anywhere really important.
Speaker B:Is it top secret, John?
Speaker B:Can you divulge where you actually go every day?
Speaker B:Well, yeah.
Speaker C:Well, we got hacked.
Speaker C:Yeah.
Speaker B:But yeah, with the level of security there, like you, the one.
Speaker B:The one arm went up and then the gate came down.
Speaker B:I'm like, well, how the am I gonna get to work?
Speaker B:Oh, exactly.
Speaker C:Yeah, it was a Monday, so, I mean, it was just.
Speaker C:Everything just went to crap.
Speaker A:Hey, well, the other thing we do at the beginning of the episode, too, is we take a shot at Morissette for recording on the same night as us, so.
Speaker A:Oh, wait, he's not recording tonight.
Speaker B:I said my day before you did.
Speaker A:I know, I know.
Speaker A:It's.
Speaker A:It's the only day I could get from the wife.
Speaker A:Like, she controls my schedule.
Speaker B:It's a negotiation.
Speaker B:Is it?
Speaker B:Like, you could have Tuesdays and that's it?
Speaker A:Yeah.
Speaker A:Yeah, well, she works night.
Speaker C:Pretty much.
Speaker A:She works night.
Speaker B:So, see, Kevin's wife doesn't like him, so he can just podcast any night.
Speaker B:I'm just saying.
Speaker D:In my house to basement dwelling.
Speaker D:Podcast, idiot.
Speaker D:That's, you know, that's my kind of label.
Speaker C:Yeah, it's just one of those.
Speaker C:Don't you have a podcast to do tonight?
Speaker D:Exactly.
Speaker C:Yeah.
Speaker C:Or can you find one?
Speaker B:You just wait on a zoom call for someone to dial you in and just talk?
Speaker B:Because I've had enough of you.
Speaker D:Yeah, I'm guessing on a podcast tonight.
Speaker D:Oh, good.
Speaker D:Really?
Speaker C:That was.
Speaker C:That was fast.
Speaker B:Yeah, well, I told my wife I'm doing two podcasts tonight, and neither are my own.
Speaker B:She's all good then.
Speaker A:Wait, so wait, you're doing.
Speaker A:You doing Seaside after this?
Speaker B:I am, yeah.
Speaker A:Oh, wow.
Speaker B:I'm hosting.
Speaker B:I'm running the show.
Speaker D:Yeah.
Speaker A:Wow.
Speaker A:Randy had enough of you.
Speaker B:Wait, Randy had enough Episode Spectacular.
Speaker D:No worries.
Speaker D:Yeah, it's our 200, 200th episode.
Speaker D:Cory's gonna host them.
Speaker C:We're just gonna.
Speaker D:Me and Randy's gonna sit back and let him talk and.
Speaker C:Oh, perfect.
Speaker D:You know, chip in there.
Speaker B:I got a lot of grief.
Speaker B:A lot.
Speaker B:A lot of things I want to complain about about Seaside Pod review, so it's gonna take a while.
Speaker A:Well, there's lots of stuff to complain about.
Speaker D:Yeah, there is, isn't there, Sean?
Speaker D:Lots of stuff to complain about on csap.
Speaker D:I do like the end music that gets put on there sometimes.
Speaker B:I was gonna ask, hopefully you didn't put this on the road that you tried setting up an hour beforehand.
Speaker A:Oh, I did.
Speaker A:Yeah.
Speaker B:Did you ever play the lovely song you did for Kevin on your own show?
Speaker A:Yes, I did.
Speaker B:Yeah.
Speaker B:Okay.
Speaker A:Yep, we played.
Speaker A:Well, we didn't play the whole thing.
Speaker A:I played a snippet in there.
Speaker D:It was outrageous.
Speaker D:Using a Gene Simmons song to insult me.
Speaker D:Insult to injury.
Speaker A:That was on purpose.
Speaker A:I wasn't gonna take a Tom Petty song.
Speaker B:Come on, you'd be a. Huh.
Speaker A:That's pretty good.
Speaker A:No, he's Zeke from Speedy Creek.
Speaker B:The one and only.
Speaker B:Gave nobody's fool a two out of ten.
Speaker C:Oh, come on.
Speaker D:Garbage.
Speaker D:Absolute garbage.
Speaker B:I mean, yeah, you are garbage.
Speaker B:What the fuck is going to point of parody now.
Speaker B:Like you can't even justify a 2.
Speaker D:I mean, 100%.
Speaker D:I can.
Speaker D:On a Haskin scale, the Snowman UCC, it might get higher than that, but on a Kaskin scale, I never want to hear that pile of crap again.
Speaker D:It's terrible.
Speaker B:What does the same song get on the.
Speaker B:On the Haskins scale?
Speaker D:Well, what did we give a one?
Speaker D:One and one didn't.
Speaker B:That was UCC.
Speaker B:But what's the Haskin scale score?
Speaker D:About a five.
Speaker B:Five.
Speaker B:So the Snowman song is better than Nobody's Fool.
Speaker D:100%.
Speaker B:You need to get your head 100%.
Speaker D:Don't mind those guys.
Speaker D:We're just having a little like we're.
Speaker B:Taking over your show, boys.
Speaker A:Oh my God.
Speaker C:Well, before we started, Sean was just testing out a rodecaster, the first version.
Speaker C:And we're having a bit of.
Speaker C:A bit of difficulties, but that was.
Speaker C:Could have been part of the show, but he forgot to hit record.
Speaker B:So Twitch actually yelled, are you recording yet?
Speaker B:And then he didn't do it.
Speaker B:It's always good to come on a show with professionals where.
Speaker B:Hold on a.
Speaker B:Going to hook up this old Betamax because I want to watch Superman the movie.
Speaker A:Are we going to watch Superman the movie?
Speaker C:I'm.
Speaker D:I'm up for it.
Speaker B:Let's do a watch one.
Speaker A:I'm wearing my work shirt.
Speaker A:It's like, it's like a corporate now.
Speaker A:Well, that's what those two knuckleheads from metal shop keep talking about.
Speaker A:Or corporate AI over here.
Speaker B:I hear that they're team Kevin Brown now, aren't they?
Speaker A:They're totally Team Kevin Brown, which I don't understand.
Speaker B:Yeah, we got.
Speaker D:We got machinations in the works.
Speaker D:There's, you know, standby.
Speaker D:I like those guys.
Speaker D:They're good guys.
Speaker A:Yeah.
Speaker C:So.
Speaker C:So is there as many Batman movies as there is Spider man movies there?
Speaker B:There's more.
Speaker C:I would say there's more.
Speaker C:Okay.
Speaker B:Yeah.
Speaker C:Wow.
Speaker B:For you, Batman 66.
Speaker B:And then you have the four from the 80s 90s, then you have the three Nolan's, and then you have Matt Reeves, Batman, plus all the animated ones, if we count them.
Speaker B:So there's a.
Speaker B: ming out next year or I guess: Speaker B:And then Spider man, you just have the.
Speaker B:The three Sam Raimi's, the two Andrew Garfield's, the now three Tom Hollands.
Speaker B:So that's eight.
Speaker B:And then Legos too, and all that.
Speaker B:Are they all like.
Speaker C:Was it DC or Marvel or whichever they're from?
Speaker C:Like, are they both from the same franchise, kind of.
Speaker B:I know Sony actually owns the right to Spider man, and because Marvel sold the rights to spider man for 10 bucks way back in the 80s when it was worth nothing.
Speaker B:And then Marvel got sick of everybody fucking up their characters, so they started making their own movies, and they could never get the rights to Spider man back because Sony kept keeping the rights.
Speaker B:All you have to do is, like, make a movie every, like, three or four years and you keep the rights.
Speaker B:So you actually.
Speaker B:There you go.
Speaker B:I'm spouting truth, motherfucker.
Speaker B:I'm theater.
Speaker B:I know all this shit.
Speaker B:I was just talking with the rep from.
Speaker B:From Sony today, actually.
Speaker A:Wait, so you actually get to talk to, like, the actual reps?
Speaker A:Like, is that how a. I want.
Speaker B:To hear how this works.
Speaker A:I don't know how this movie theater shit works, so maybe fill us in with that, because this is good.
Speaker A:This is good content.
Speaker B:You have an actual question there.
Speaker B:Do you want me just.
Speaker A:Well, no, I just want to know, like, so when you're opening a theater, like, how do you get the movies in?
Speaker A:Like, how do you.
Speaker B:Okay, like.
Speaker A:Like schmooze or deal.
Speaker A:Make deals.
Speaker A:Like, how does that work?
Speaker C:So what we're doing.
Speaker B:Yeah, we're an independent theater.
Speaker B:So what we're doing is we're running through what's called a booker.
Speaker B:And this is a booker who books for about 300 to 400 independent theaters in Canada.
Speaker B:We could go it alone and try and contact every single studio ourselves, but they're not gonna pick up the phone for Jaghoff, Corey and Waver in Saskatchewan Air Avengers.
Speaker B:Right.
Speaker B:But if a booker calls them and says, I'm representing 400 theaters, you get a little more buying power that way to get a little better rate from the studio, because you have to negotiate that first week box office.
Speaker B:So Disney could say, you have to play our movie in your biggest theater for three weeks, and you have to give us 69% of the gross.
Speaker D:Whoa.
Speaker A:So that's.
Speaker C:Wow.
Speaker A:So is.
Speaker A:So is this.
Speaker A:So I want to equate it.
Speaker A:So when we put our music up on, like, all the streaming services, we had to go through an agency or whatever you want to call it, which is cd, baby, to.
Speaker A:But you can't put it up yourself.
Speaker A:So it's kind of the similar.
Speaker B:Well, you can.
Speaker B:You can call Disney yourself and hope they answer the phone or return your call and say, I want to.
Speaker B:I want to run Avengers.
Speaker B:And they'll say, okay, six weeks, and we want 80%.
Speaker B:And you don't have really A lot of stroke to get a better deal from the studio, right.
Speaker B:Where if you're negotiating in numbers, it kind of helps you out a little bit.
Speaker B:But we have to set up an account with every single studio.
Speaker B:So all this week, they've been reps from every studio has been contacting us, and like, hey, we're Warner Brothers.
Speaker B:Give us the technical specs here, theater, and we'll start.
Speaker B:We'll get you in the system.
Speaker B:Then you start.
Speaker B:Bucket it.
Speaker B:And then we set up with a company out of Toronto, and they actually distribute the films to you via the Interweb.
Speaker B:And it ends up on a server that goes right to your projector.
Speaker D:Whoa.
Speaker B:And then, yeah, it starts off, and it's locked.
Speaker B:Like, it'll say, okay, the Odyssey is now downloaded.
Speaker B:I'll have a big red X on it, meaning it's.
Speaker B:It's not unlocked yet.
Speaker B:So you got to get the serial number, the key from the actual studio that'll authorize you to play it for however many plays you ask for.
Speaker B:You plug that in your projector, the light turns green, and you can play the movie.
Speaker C:I was gonna.
Speaker C:I was gonna ask that.
Speaker C:Do they still use film, or do they actually just.
Speaker B:It's all digital now, and it's all downloaded originally.
Speaker B:When they went to digital projectors, they would actually ship out a hard drive, and you'd have to plug that into something, you know, like a server bank.
Speaker B:Now, it's not even that you just download it.
Speaker B:So on a Wednesday night, it'll download overnight.
Speaker B:By Thursday morning, you got the movie.
Speaker D:There's basically steam.
Speaker B:Well, a little better quality, I would hope.
Speaker B:My wife worked at a theater back in the day when you would get film reels.
Speaker B:So you get the giant cans, right?
Speaker B:Yeah.
Speaker B:Like six reels.
Speaker B:So on this massive platter, she would have to splice the reels together, like the end of reel one to the beginning of reel two.
Speaker B:Because they only had one projector, they couldn't go back and forth.
Speaker B:And her very first time doing it, she put the last reel on first.
Speaker B: f the first Star Trek film in: Speaker B:Nice for one.
Speaker B:One special showing, but it's the Nolan edit.
Speaker C:Did she show up for work the next day?
Speaker B:Oh, yeah.
Speaker B:You just had to reverse the one.
Speaker B:Real.
Speaker B:It was fine.
Speaker B:She handed out free passes at the end, said, I'm so sorry.
Speaker B:Oh, yeah.
Speaker C:Well, there you go.
Speaker B:Yeah.
Speaker B:Oh, my God.
Speaker A:Hey, technology moment here.
Speaker A:Just so you know, when I.
Speaker D:Another one.
Speaker B:Yes.
Speaker A:When I Plugged the Rodecaster in.
Speaker A:I unplugged my mini fridge.
Speaker D:Oh, my God.
Speaker A:So I went to grab some ice and it's like, oh, that's wet.
Speaker A:Jesus fucking Christ.
Speaker B:Are you sure you're cut off for this Podcasting first world problems.
Speaker D:My ice is all runny.
Speaker D:My Rodecaster doesn't work.
Speaker D:Our pets heads are falling off.
Speaker A:I can't seem to grow any hair lately.
Speaker C:Okay, so here's a question.
Speaker C:So.
Speaker C:So say when you.
Speaker A:Well, you heard the story in the show.
Speaker A:We explained it.
Speaker C:Oh, yeah, right.
Speaker A:But I'll tell you, the other story off air is the other reason they cut it off.
Speaker A:Okay, I cannot share that on air because it's.
Speaker A:It's work related.
Speaker A:So.
Speaker A:But I.
Speaker A:So remind me to tell you after.
Speaker A:But there's a reason.
Speaker A:It's like, oh, I'm not growing that back anytime soon.
Speaker B:I've already forgotten.
Speaker B:It's not that interesting.
Speaker B:Go ahead, Todd.
Speaker C:You know when you.
Speaker C:When people say you watch a movie and it says pre DVD and it's usually a movie theater whatnot, and someone's got a.
Speaker C:Either a handheld or something, so the.
Speaker C:The.
Speaker C:The video is kind of washed out and then the audio is kind of warbled and whatnot.
Speaker C:But I've.
Speaker C:But I've also seen some that are like, really, really good, and they would have like a watermark or something at the bottom.
Speaker C:But I'm not sure if that's something someone else put after the fact or how that kind of works.
Speaker C:So if someone said, okay, you know what, we're getting this movie in.
Speaker C:If someone said, you know what, we're gonna pirate the movie, like just for example, how hard would that.
Speaker C:I guess that would be hard to do now that they've got a digital with a key.
Speaker C:Unless you're feeding a second machine through that's doing the recording while you're watching the actual movie.
Speaker B:How many movies have you pirated in your day, Todd?
Speaker D:I'm gonna keep very quiet on that front.
Speaker B:Let's say for the sake of argument, I wanted to rip off people and show the Odyssey.
Speaker B:How could I do this?
Speaker D:Well, you just need a second output going.
Speaker B:Yeah, no, you can't really do that anymore.
Speaker B:Really.
Speaker B:The only way to do it nowadays is to sneak in a camcorder, and you're gonna get shitty footage and shitty audio and probably Chinese subtitles, because you can't really do that in North American theaters.
Speaker D:True.
Speaker A:That used to be like a Josh Trank film.
Speaker B:Well, I wouldn't recommend going to see a Josh Frank film anyway.
Speaker A:I knew you'd get that joke.
Speaker B:Oh, yeah, he did.
Speaker B:Fan forstick.
Speaker B:One of the.
Speaker B:Yeah, that wasn't even his fault, though.
Speaker B:That's when the studio said, we're taking it over and redid the whole third act, and it made no sense.
Speaker A:Do you think, though?
Speaker A:I started watching it yesterday and I had to stop because I was watching it and.
Speaker B:Makes sense.
Speaker A:Do you think, like, do you think he actually had a good film hidden in there?
Speaker A:Is anyone else seen that?
Speaker A:Fantastic Four with trying to remember who was in it?
Speaker A:Michael Jordan.
Speaker A:Michael B. Jordan.
Speaker B:Kate Mara was in it.
Speaker A:Mara.
Speaker A:And oh, my God, who's the kid from Whiplash?
Speaker A:Yeah, I sent.
Speaker D:I saw the one with Jessica Alba, and I only remember Jessica Alba well.
Speaker B:For a good reason.
Speaker A:I thought you only remembered the Human Torch because isn't that what everybody talked about?
Speaker A:Shirtless Human Torch?
Speaker A:I mean, he's a handsome man.
Speaker A:When my wife went, wow.
Speaker A:I'm like, yeah, wow.
Speaker A:I can't.
Speaker A:I can't disagree there.
Speaker A:A shirtless Chris Evans.
Speaker A:You know, she must have really liked.
Speaker B:It when he was Captain America then, because he worked out in double time.
Speaker A:Oh, yeah.
Speaker A:She enjoyed that quite a bit.
Speaker C:Yeah.
Speaker A:And I just got to live off the crumb.
Speaker A:The crumbs.
Speaker C:Hey, you say it doesn't matter where you get your appetite as long as you eat at home.
Speaker D:That's right.
Speaker A:Oh, I like that.
Speaker B:That's a T shirt for my wife, it's Jason Momoa.
Speaker B:Until I send her the meme of a picture of him and it says, hi, I'm Jason.
Speaker B:And then the second picture is him with a lawnmower.
Speaker B:And this is Momoa.
Speaker B:Now she doesn't see him in the same light anymore.
Speaker C:Wasn't he in a film?
Speaker C:Whenever all his hair was missing, it was all kind of straggly, and it.
Speaker A:Was him, Jason Momoa.
Speaker A:He was, like, balding on top.
Speaker B:Sort of.
Speaker C:Yeah.
Speaker C:I don't know if it was a movie part or maybe it could have been an AI thing someone did, but.
Speaker A:You're thinking of Jason Statham or Jason Momoa.
Speaker C:No, no,.
Speaker B:Never had hair, I don't think.
Speaker B:No.
Speaker A:Yeah, he thinks he does.
Speaker B:Yeah.
Speaker D:Welcome to Sunnyville is the Winnipeg retirement home where people sit around, talk about Boulder, get people's names wrong,.
Speaker C:You know?
Speaker C:You know that guy?
Speaker C:The guy at the corner of those two streets?
Speaker C:He had that yellow car in the driveway.
Speaker C:Remember him?
Speaker B:Always wore pants.
Speaker B:What was his name?
Speaker B:Whatever.
Speaker B:Didn't matter anyway.
Speaker B:He's a dickhead.
Speaker A:Hey, I actually.
Speaker A:So I had a couple of things prepared, like we're supposed to play at the beginning of the show, which we totally fucked up and didn't do.
Speaker A:So I have a theme song for Kumpu.
Speaker A:That'd be you, Cory.
Speaker A:Oh, cmpu.
Speaker A:So we have a theme song for you.
Speaker B:I got what you were throwing down.
Speaker B:It should be amazing.
Speaker B:Yeah.
Speaker A:Yeah.
Speaker A:And if anybody gets the reference, which will mean just Todd and Kevin will get the reference.
Speaker A:But here's the.
Speaker A:The theme song for Corey Morissette, and it's not playing.
Speaker A:Hell.
Speaker A:Wait, here we go.
Speaker C:He's hitting the road.
Speaker C:Caster buttons again.
Speaker B:Here we go.
Speaker D:He's on.
Speaker D:Please unplug the fridge again.
Speaker A:And from the cmpu, the Podfather, Corey Morissette.
Speaker A:Now, Kevin, do you want to explain to the gentleman on my lower right part of the screen why I picked that song?
Speaker A:Why would I pick that song?
Speaker A:Why would that be appropriate to the Godfather of podcasts?
Speaker D:Price?
Speaker D:Well, it's Satriani.
Speaker D:Is it?
Speaker D:Some.
Speaker D:It's not a summer song, is.
Speaker D:It's summer song, isn't it?
Speaker A:It is Surfing with the Alien.
Speaker D:A surfing.
Speaker B:The alien.
Speaker D:Sorry.
Speaker D:Jesus.
Speaker D:Yeah.
Speaker A:And you are the herald, in this case, to Kumar over here.
Speaker A:Oh, Kumar.
Speaker A:No, no, the herald to Galactus.
Speaker A:Come on.
Speaker A:You're eating worlds.
Speaker A:I forgot about that.
Speaker D:Surfing with the Alien.
Speaker D:Not fucking summer song.
Speaker D:What song is that?
Speaker A:That's Surfing Friends.
Speaker D:Surfing course.
Speaker A:Okay, so I. I have Surfing with the Alien.
Speaker D:I have it on vinyl.
Speaker A:Oh, but.
Speaker A:Okay, which cover, though?
Speaker D:Oh, well, I'm gonna.
Speaker D:Wait, I'll show you.
Speaker A:Yeah, please show me.
Speaker A:Are you familiar?
Speaker B:And show them off, Corey.
Speaker B:How big I am.
Speaker A:Corey, were you familiar with the song at all?
Speaker B:Yeah.
Speaker B:You know, the first time I heard it was when the Sammy Boys were playing at Best of All Worlds in Toronto in Satch played Surfing with the Alien.
Speaker B:Yeah.
Speaker A:Oh, man, that would have been so awesome.
Speaker B:Oh, no, he played Satch Boogie.
Speaker B:I did hear it, though.
Speaker A:Well, Satch Boogie was the other single off that album.
Speaker B:Yeah.
Speaker B:No, I think he played Satch Boogie.
Speaker B:But I have heard Surfing with the Alien, though.
Speaker B:It took me a minute, but I did get there.
Speaker B:I thought that was really cool.
Speaker A:Okay.
Speaker B:Don't Mind My Dog, by the way.
Speaker A:Oh, it's not the original.
Speaker D:It's not the original.
Speaker D:Hell, what it is.
Speaker D:It's kind of cool because it's.
Speaker C:Oh, you've got the colored ones.
Speaker D:Oh, beautiful red vinyl.
Speaker D:And it has a second disc, Todd, with no guitar on it.
Speaker D:So it's just drums and bass, all the backing tracks so that you can play along with it.
Speaker A:That is so cool.
Speaker B:That is.
Speaker D:I Cannot do.
Speaker B:Todd could, though.
Speaker B:That would sound amazing.
Speaker A:Oh, now Todd's got to get the vinyl.
Speaker C:Yeah.
Speaker A:Jesus Christ.
Speaker B:That's Winnipeg for Todd.
Speaker C:I'll have to learn the songs.
Speaker A:Well, you taught.
Speaker A:We used to play them all the time.
Speaker A:You just gotta listen once or twice and they'd be fine.
Speaker C:Satch Boogie.
Speaker C:I had that on my answering machine.
Speaker C:Yeah, actually, yeah, I think I still have it.
Speaker C:It was one of those little tiny cassettes back when it was before digital.
Speaker A:So can you.
Speaker D:The greatest dive bomb in history, though, in all guitar in that song.
Speaker C:It's ridiculous.
Speaker D:I think that's actually a sex crime.
Speaker D:What do you do for that guitar?
Speaker A:10 To 20 in purgatory.
Speaker A:So bring up the COVID again.
Speaker A:No, not that.
Speaker A:The audio, listeners.
Speaker A:But can you point out the difference between this cover and the original?
Speaker D:Well, yeah, there's no Silver Surfer on it.
Speaker A:Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
Speaker C:It was a surfboard with a silver server.
Speaker C:Now it's.
Speaker C:It's just the headstock.
Speaker C:Yeah, but his silver guitar.
Speaker A:So talk about fucking up an opportunity of all.
Speaker A:Of all kind.
Speaker A:When the Fantastic Four movie comes out.
Speaker A:The first good one came out.
Speaker A:How is Joe Satcharani doesn't have a song or two in there.
Speaker A:RedOne and recomposed by the composer of the movie because he's got a million songs about the Silver Surfer, Galactus, all that sort of shit.
Speaker A:Where is that in the movie?
Speaker A:What a missed fucking opportunity.
Speaker A:And Joe had to take the Silver Surfer off the COVID of his album because.
Speaker A:Well, you can't have that on your album, can you?
Speaker B:Wait, which one is the good one?
Speaker A:The good album?
Speaker B:Because none of them have been that great.
Speaker B:No, the Fantastic Four movie.
Speaker A:Oh, the most recent one.
Speaker B:You thought that was good?
Speaker A:Dude, I'm on my fifth watch and I cry twice.
Speaker B:Cry.
Speaker B:Do I cry, too?
Speaker B:I'm like, wow, look at how many dollars wasted.
Speaker A:Oh, come on.
Speaker B:It's fine.
Speaker B:It's fine.
Speaker B:I didn't hate it.
Speaker B:It's fine.
Speaker B:It's like all marvel nowadays.
Speaker B:It's all right.
Speaker A:Well, I agree.
Speaker A:I agree with that.
Speaker A:I actually like the Fantastic for more than the current Spider man movie.
Speaker B:Yeah, I wasn't too keen on that one either.
Speaker B:It's fine.
Speaker A:I like the new Spider man movie, but the Fantastic Four hit every beat.
Speaker A:I wanted to see hit in the movie.
Speaker A:And it's about family.
Speaker A:And it's about, you know, family.
Speaker A:Well, you don't like yours.
Speaker B:That's.
Speaker A:Maybe that's the difference.
Speaker B:They banished off to the studio.
Speaker B:They didn't make me go to see the new Spider man movie, sir.
Speaker D:I still think they should make a Jewish superhero income.
Speaker B:Spiderman.
Speaker D:I think I've missing a trick there too, Bill.
Speaker B:Spiderman.
Speaker B:He's a proctologist.
Speaker C:He's got to be careful not to spin his web at the wrong time.
Speaker B:That's right.
Speaker D:What do you mean, from evil?
Speaker A:Oh, man.
Speaker A:Yeah, we're gonna.
Speaker A:We have Heath on next week.
Speaker A:We're gonna talk some.
Speaker A:Some superhero.
Speaker A:Oh, yeah, yeah.
Speaker A:Did you know that guy has interviewed, like, everyone from Stan Lee to.
Speaker A:I think he said he, like Steve Ditko, definitely.
Speaker A:Like, I don't know, all the big guys.
Speaker A:Like, that's.
Speaker A:I'm.
Speaker A:Yeah, I'm excited for that.
Speaker A:I'm not excited tonight, but I'm excited for next week.
Speaker B:You got to get him on your show and ask him all the stuff he talks about.
Speaker B:Not on podcast.
Speaker B:Like, all the rock artists that actually hate him, and, like, you know, that's what.
Speaker A:That's worthwhile.
Speaker A:I think we should bring that up.
Speaker D:Because they get him to sell you his James Brown.
Speaker A:No, I heard the James Brown story.
Speaker A:Oh, I didn't hear the Stevie.
Speaker A:Next one.
Speaker A:Okay, I want to hear that one.
Speaker B:Okay.
Speaker A:Todd, homework.
Speaker A:Write down.
Speaker A:Grab your pen and paper.
Speaker B:He's already forgotten.
Speaker B:It's okay.
Speaker A:You know what?
Speaker A:As.
Speaker A:As Noman and Rory said, we're the AI podcast, so this is all, like, fake right now.
Speaker A:We don't even have real guests on, and we're not even real people.
Speaker C:See, homework requires a pen.
Speaker C:Do you think I have a pen?
Speaker A:Of course not.
Speaker C:I never have a pen on hand anyway.
Speaker B:Well, if only we were recording this, you could listen back.
Speaker C:Yeah, we could do that.
Speaker C:Okay.
Speaker C:How many minutes in are we just.
Speaker C:Just write that down.
Speaker B:You're the producer.
Speaker B:Sean, help a brother out.
Speaker B:How many minutes are we in?
Speaker A:We are.
Speaker A:See, I don't have my glasses on.
Speaker A: We are: Speaker D:There's an application on your computer called Notepad.
Speaker D:What you can do is you can open that up and you can type in that as the episode goes, along.
Speaker A:With anything you need to.
Speaker A:Yeah, no, I just use the AI notes in Zoom, and it just gives me a full.
Speaker B:There's another AI guy, Him and Chaz.
Speaker A:They love their AI Now I just use it to get show notes.
Speaker A:It gives me the show.
Speaker A:Not the show notes, but it gives me the talkies.
Speaker A:Gives me the talkies.
Speaker A:It tells us what we talked about and then.
Speaker A:Actually, no.
Speaker A:Captivate does that for me.
Speaker A:Anyway, regardless, don't we have a topic or something?
Speaker C:I don't know.
Speaker B:Not my show.
Speaker B:Not my Monkey not my Circus.
Speaker A:We have a topic.
Speaker A:So I wanted to have two music nerds on, but they weren't available, so we got you two instead.
Speaker A:And I was going to say, one.
Speaker B:Of them must not have been able to make it, because I'm here talking about movies for the first 20 minutes.
Speaker A:So backing tracks is a pain in the ass.
Speaker A:It's what everyone's talking about.
Speaker A:The Motley Crue backing tracks.
Speaker A:I keep hearing about the Dua Lipa backing track thing.
Speaker A:Does anybody know who Dua Lipa is in this room?
Speaker A:Are you guys all.
Speaker B:I've heard the.
Speaker D:No, I.
Speaker D:Well, so just as a quick sidebar on that, I do the artwork for a brewery in Saskatoon.
Speaker D:And I keep telling Corey that he needs to make a double IPA and call it a dual.
Speaker D:Call it dual ipa, but do a Leap or.
Speaker D:So it's.
Speaker D:You know.
Speaker D:And he's not buying it.
Speaker D:He says it's something about copyright for.
Speaker B:Some or missed opportunity, man.
Speaker B:He's got an employer, I'm sure.
Speaker B:Yeah.
Speaker B:Come on.
Speaker A:So here's the thing that popped up that really.
Speaker A:That really got me.
Speaker A:I know who Dua Leap is because I have two young girls, right?
Speaker A:And the.
Speaker A:The Barbie movie came out, and then Dua Lipa exploded.
Speaker A:She had a song in there that was incredibly derivative of, like, two other songs, two ABBA songs.
Speaker A:Everything she writes is.
Speaker A:Well, she doesn't write anything.
Speaker A:So what am I saying?
Speaker A:I can't say she's.
Speaker A:She's ripping people off.
Speaker A:Her songwriters are ripping people off.
Speaker A:But she does this vocal.
Speaker A:Technique, not technique.
Speaker A:It's called layer.
Speaker A:There's a word for it.
Speaker A:But basically, before you go perform, you record the vocal and you've got your processing and all that stuff.
Speaker A:So you record the vocal.
Speaker A:You go ahead and do it again.
Speaker A:So you do it, and I believe it's 11 times.
Speaker A:So you have 11 of this kind of same vocals.
Speaker A:And then when you go live, those 11 tracks are played live and she sings along to that.
Speaker A:So if she decides, I'm going to do a twirly whirl or I'm going to spin around or I'm going to have one of my dancers dip me or something, and I'm not going to be able to sing when that's happening, it's okay.
Speaker A:There's 11 other voices singing, but they're all her voice.
Speaker A:But they're all done in studio and all fixed up and cleaned up.
Speaker A:And then that is her singing track.
Speaker A:Like her main singing track when she performs live.
Speaker C:Are.
Speaker A:What do you think about that?
Speaker A:How does that make you feel.
Speaker A:And it's not even the most loud track either.
Speaker A:It's.
Speaker A:The loudest tracks are the ones that is not the live track.
Speaker D:I mean, it depends.
Speaker D:If you're going to Dua Lipa show, I don't think necessarily you're going to hear, you know, the vocalist put on an absolute tour de force vocal performance.
Speaker D:You're going for the show, right?
Speaker D:You're going through twirlies.
Speaker D:You're going for the backing dancer.
Speaker D:So I think if you're playing to your audience and you're not being deceptive about it, I got real.
Speaker D:No real problem with that.
Speaker D:I mean, you know, it's like.
Speaker D:It's like using effects on stage, right?
Speaker D:It's like using an overdrive pedal instead of.
Speaker D:Instead of just overdriving your guitar.
Speaker D:You could so.
Speaker D:Well, what's the line with that?
Speaker D:What do we say is cheating?
Speaker D:What isn't?
Speaker D:I think my issue is when.
Speaker D:When people try and pass it off as being real and it isn't.
Speaker D:In that case, I mean, it's no different.
Speaker D:Like the who, right?
Speaker D:Baba O'Reilly.
Speaker B:Sure.
Speaker D:They played.
Speaker D:They were playing to tracks in.
Speaker D:Whatever that was.
Speaker D:This was like 69, 70, right?
Speaker D:71 Or something.
Speaker A:Yeah.
Speaker D:So they.
Speaker D:Because they.
Speaker D:They couldn't play that live Queen with Bohemian Rhapsody.
Speaker D:They, you know, the Scaramouche.
Speaker D:Scaramouche.
Speaker D:Can you fandango?
Speaker D:That was all.
Speaker D:They just played the video, the music video.
Speaker D:Then they come back in on the.
Speaker D:The big rock ending.
Speaker A:Is that how they did that?
Speaker D:Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Speaker D:So for me, they're all coming back on stage.
Speaker D:Big explosion.
Speaker D:You're back into it, right?
Speaker D:So I think, like I said, I mean, for something like Dua Lipa, where the points of her show, you know, like a Taylor Swift or Katy Perry or Madonna, maybe, it's more about the.
Speaker D:The overall experience and the show than it is necessarily just that vocal, right?
Speaker D:It sort of makes some sense to me because, I mean, I don't like you guys.
Speaker D:I don't really watch any of that stuff.
Speaker D:But when you see clips of it and they're running around all over the place, you know, unless you're.
Speaker D:Unless you've got Bruce Dickinson lung capacity, difficult to run around and sing.
Speaker D:I mean, you know, Sean, right, You're a singer.
Speaker D:That's difficult to do.
Speaker D:So I think you need a bit of an assist on some of that stuff if you're gonna.
Speaker D:If that's what you're gonna do and that's the way you're gonna put your show out there.
Speaker A:That's why.
Speaker A:That's why I used to run when I was.
Speaker A:When I was performing, I was.
Speaker A:I was a jogger because I gotta keep the cardio up.
Speaker A:Sorry.
Speaker A:Corey, what are you gonna say?
Speaker B:I'm kind of same with Kevin there on that one.
Speaker B:I think as long as you're upfront with it.
Speaker B:I think a lot of people have issues with bands and they say we're not singing the tracks at all.
Speaker B:Then they get caught singing the tracks.
Speaker B:I remember when Bon Jovi got caught on his this House Is not for Sale world tour, where the things started skipping and he clearly was just miming along.
Speaker B:That's what I think people have a big issue to.
Speaker B:If Motley Crue came out and said, yeah, our background vocals are tracks, we're singing on them too.
Speaker B:But we really want a fuller sound on our background vocals.
Speaker B:So we're playing.
Speaker B:We know we're playing the album background vocal or what have you.
Speaker B:No one would have an issue with it.
Speaker B:People have issues when it's okay, well, they accused Tommy Lee of miming to a drum track.
Speaker B:Like, how.
Speaker B: Why the do you do that in: Speaker B:Or, you know, Mick couldn't play, apparently.
Speaker B:And now Vince is really struggling because he's had, you know, two, three strokes.
Speaker B:Give the guy a break.
Speaker B:If they came out and said, yeah, we got a little extra help for Vince because he's recovering from a stroke and he's doing his best and he's singing, but you might hear a little fuller vocal.
Speaker B:Yeah, we're helping him out.
Speaker A:Honestly, that's what's missed.
Speaker A:See, that's my biggest gripe is the honesty.
Speaker A:There is none, like from.
Speaker A:From any of these people.
Speaker A:Because.
Speaker A:Todd, you go ahead while I gather my thoughts here.
Speaker C:Well, when it comes to bands, like when the singer is not singing and it's a background track, then that's a no, no.
Speaker C:Like, why bother being there?
Speaker C:You're basically just entertaining, lip syncing.
Speaker C:So that part I would say no, that's not even like.
Speaker C:Even if you're honest about it, it's like, why would we bother to come see you?
Speaker C:I mean, sure, you maybe re recorded the song in studio and that's what you're playing.
Speaker C:So it's a little bit different from the original.
Speaker C:Otherwise everybody going, that's exactly like the original.
Speaker C:That sounds like, you know, but you know, because when you go see a band live, they always usually do a few changes in the song just so you know exactly.
Speaker C:That it's not a recorded song.
Speaker C:Like they change it up.
Speaker C:But as for the Band playing as a backing track.
Speaker C:Oh, God, that, that.
Speaker C:I can't know that.
Speaker C:That, that's no good either.
Speaker C:But when I like.
Speaker C:But when we saw, say, when I saw the Eagles, I'm never here.
Speaker C:I mean, all the guys are old.
Speaker C:They need help.
Speaker C:I mean, when you were, when you were watching them play, if you actually.
Speaker C:And I was.
Speaker C:I was high up, so when I was looking down, you could see everybody in the background.
Speaker C:So, I mean, Glenn Fry was playing a little bit, but there was someone behind him doing, you know, the lead parts or whatnot.
Speaker C:Joe Walsh, but Joe Walsh tend to, you know, he's still pretty, you know, good with his fingers, but it depends on the person.
Speaker C:I mean, some guys are a little more.
Speaker C:They age a little rougher than others, so they need a little bit more help.
Speaker C:But the sound of it was great.
Speaker C:Everything was in view.
Speaker C:Everything was good.
Speaker C:You watch the Rush concert that goes on, Getty needs a hand.
Speaker C:There's a guy behind him doing the keyboards.
Speaker C:He announces everybody who's there.
Speaker C:Yeah, I mean, obviously everybody knows Annika's not the original drummer, but that was the whole reason for the tour, was to kind of celebrate Neil.
Speaker A:So they're.
Speaker A:And they're not putting.
Speaker A:They're not putting makeup on Annika's face to make her look like the cat man either.
Speaker A:They're not, they're not lying and saying it's actually Neil in the band.
Speaker A:They're actually being honest, saying, hey, we have a replacement.
Speaker A:Sorry.
Speaker C:Yeah, there is one.
Speaker C:There is one point, I guess.
Speaker C:There's a bag that comes out and it's like a, like a caricature of Neil on the front, but.
Speaker C:But it's more of a.
Speaker C:It's more of a gag.
Speaker B:Yeah.
Speaker B:The guys turned around and looked at her with this bag on.
Speaker B:They started.
Speaker B:One thing about Rush is they got tremendous senses of humor.
Speaker B:Right.
Speaker B:So you do that during a show, they're going to laugh.
Speaker D:Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah.
Speaker D:I mean, it's.
Speaker D:For me, it's okay.
Speaker D:I think with, with tracks specifically, it's.
Speaker D:I think it's okay if you're filling in bits that you can't do.
Speaker A:Sure.
Speaker D:You know, they just don't work.
Speaker D:Right.
Speaker D:I mean, there's, there's like.
Speaker D:I said, listen to all the, like a lot of funk and that kind of stuff too.
Speaker D:And, and they, they gotta use because they've got like these Arpeggiati cable parts.
Speaker D:And the keyboard player also plays sax.
Speaker D:Well, if he's playing sax, he can't play keyboard.
Speaker C:So over produced, they have to do something.
Speaker B:Yeah, for sure.
Speaker D:Yeah.
Speaker D:Because, well, my mate Randy says, right.
Speaker D:I mean, you know, you sort of write the song in the studio and then you figure out how to cover it live.
Speaker D:Unless you're, you know, unless you're like a straight ahead, like a punk band or a straight four piece where you're not doing any dubs, any overdubs or anything, you're just playing straight.
Speaker D:But I mean, who the hell's doing that these days, really?
Speaker D:Not very many people.
Speaker D:Right.
Speaker D:So you've only got one guitar player.
Speaker D:You're kind of stuck there unless you completely change the arrangement, which is cool too.
Speaker A:Okay, so like I said, if you're.
Speaker D:Miming though, to like that whole thing about Tommy Lee miming, like Arsenal, bring in a different drummer.
Speaker D:That's.
Speaker A:Yeah, that's outrageous.
Speaker A:Kiss used to like have a keyboard player, but backstage, right?
Speaker A:Like, they're not even bringing the guy out.
Speaker A:Like Aerosmith.
Speaker A:What?
Speaker D:Really off to the side of the stage.
Speaker A:Really.
Speaker B:He eventually did bring him out.
Speaker B:Like, he got closer and closer.
Speaker B:Like he was side stage.
Speaker D:Yeah, Baby steps.
Speaker B:You'd be able to see like a quarter of the.
Speaker B:Of the keyboard.
Speaker B:And then they'd bring him out.
Speaker B:He'd just be in the back with no lights.
Speaker B:Then they'd put a light on him.
Speaker B:And by the end of the final tour, he was right up there with the replacement drummer for, for oh, Jesus.
Speaker B:Name escapes me.
Speaker B:Joey Kramer.
Speaker B:So, yeah, he was.
Speaker B:They eventually brought him up.
Speaker B:Yeah.
Speaker B:For the longest time he was just backstage.
Speaker A:Why hide?
Speaker A:I'd say I never.
Speaker A:Here's.
Speaker A:Here's a problem I had.
Speaker A:So I was watching the Taylor Swift concert because I didn't have a choice.
Speaker A:And what I.
Speaker A:What I find with like the modern pop era with Hidden miss musicians, they, they do it all the time, the pop people, right?
Speaker B:Like, yep.
Speaker A:They're not going to bring the band out on stage because nobody really wants to see the band.
Speaker A:And I'm like, what?
Speaker A:Like when Rihanna had, like, had Nuno Bettencourt playing for her, like, Nuno's not on.
Speaker A:Like, I don't know if he was on stage.
Speaker A:I know he would be on stage, but he was.
Speaker B:Yeah, just not well lit.
Speaker B:But.
Speaker A:Yeah, but why wouldn't you want to have your band?
Speaker A:Isn't this a music concert?
Speaker A:Like, wouldn't you want to see how the music's put together?
Speaker D:No, most.
Speaker D:I mean, you gotta remember that a lot of people.
Speaker D:Not, I wouldn't say most, but I mean, people going to those shows, they're not, they're not music Fans in that way, I don't think they're not sitting there picking apart.
Speaker D:I wonder how they're getting that tone on that synth bass.
Speaker D:Or they're just thinking, I like dancing to this.
Speaker D:Yeah, right.
Speaker D:So at that point, it's like, I don't care if they see the band or not, or if I just.
Speaker D:The dancers are cool.
Speaker D:I don't care.
Speaker D:I don't care who's playing what.
Speaker D:I mean, you look at.
Speaker D:It was Kanye west when he did Glastonbury, came out and announced himself the great, the greatest living rock star.
Speaker D:And then essentially may as well just have had a boogie box on stage, because there was no band.
Speaker D:It was just literally playing to a backing track.
Speaker A:Yeah.
Speaker D:Rapping, I guess.
Speaker D:Obviously a little bit different, but same thing.
Speaker D:So people don't care.
Speaker D:You know, we're the old crusty white guys now.
Speaker D:We're going the way the dinosaur man.
Speaker A:But do you think.
Speaker A:I always wondered, does it have anything to do with.
Speaker A:Look, Corey, you may shit all over yourself about this, but you do play drums.
Speaker A:You are a musician.
Speaker A:Whether you agree or not, you are.
Speaker B:You play the basis definition, but you.
Speaker A:Are still playing along to something, right?
Speaker A:You're listening to AC DC or whatever it is, and you're playing along.
Speaker A:So you're actually learning by being active how the drums sound and how the drums work.
Speaker A:So when you're playing, you're figuring it out.
Speaker A:But now when you listen, you're probably a bit more aware of, oh, he's doing this here.
Speaker A:Because I noticed on the show, you notice, hey, he's doing a triplet here.
Speaker A:You're actually picking shit up.
Speaker A:So you're actually applying the knowledge you have to the music you're listening to.
Speaker A:And you're finding appreciation in the drums, right?
Speaker A:And I think as musicians, I think we all do that.
Speaker A:So when we listen to a song and there's no instruments at all, it's just, somebody flushed the toilet, put the mic in the toilet, hit flush, and then they loop the beat around that, and then it just plays through the whole song.
Speaker A:Like they're just using sound effects.
Speaker A:So it's not actual music music.
Speaker A:It's just sound effects looped into a beat or into a bass line or whatever, right?
Speaker B:So.
Speaker A:But people don't care about what the music sounds like.
Speaker A:My theory is, if they don't play, if they don't know what a guitar really sounds like, do you think that actually matters?
Speaker A:Do you think that's why people tend to only care about the lyrics?
Speaker A:Sometimes they don't Even care about the melody.
Speaker A:They just care about the words that are being sung.
Speaker D:Corey.
Speaker B:I was.
Speaker B:I've been waiting for Todd.
Speaker A:We gotta wake Todd up here.
Speaker C:Well, with the keytar, for example, when that came out, it was like, okay, well, you get someone who's got a new sound out.
Speaker C:So I mean, it doesn't necessarily mean that, you know, you know, what the guitar sounds like or the bass or the drums or the spoons or whatever.
Speaker C:Like, there's so many different instruments out there that, you know, we probably never heard of or, you know, or have heard.
Speaker C:And as time goes on, when you listen to music, every once in a while, there'll be this.
Speaker C:What is that?
Speaker C:It's something that they've thrown in.
Speaker C:And you almost have to research it to say, like, what is this noise that's in here that was never here before?
Speaker C:It's like when people are writing music, like you said, when you're flushing the toilet, it's white noise.
Speaker C:Like, it'll.
Speaker C:It'll fill in, you know, whatever you need.
Speaker C:You could put your, you know, microphone there, flush the toilet, get that whirly swirly sound, and you could definitely add it to, to a.
Speaker C:So we were, we were talking about that the other day.
Speaker C:I was watching somebody on YouTube.
Speaker C:They had a.
Speaker C:A pen.
Speaker C:They were just clicking it and then they were scratching something, and then they looped it and then they added it to the song.
Speaker C:You can do it with whatever you want.
Speaker C:That's like where pots and pans came from.
Speaker C:Like when we, when we were growing up, we're trying to make, you know, trying to be our own drummers type thing or, Or a washtub bass where you had one string on a, on a 2x4.
Speaker C:When you're.
Speaker A:Oh, this makes noise.
Speaker A:Cigar box he made.
Speaker C:Yeah.
Speaker C:I mean, there's a guy that plays a shovel on.
Speaker C:On YouTube.
Speaker C:He's got four strings on.
Speaker C:It's like a.
Speaker C:And the thing sounds great.
Speaker C:It's electric.
Speaker C:You know, it's got pickup on it.
Speaker C:It doesn't have to be an instrument that's around now.
Speaker C:But the, but the really thing, if you can innovate something to sound like nothing else and actually have it instead of doing one particular noise.
Speaker C:Like, if you hit something, it makes a particular noise.
Speaker C:But with a guitar, we have all the strings.
Speaker C:You get all the frets.
Speaker C:You can go up and down, you know, and the drums, you get the rims, you get the different sizes, you get the different tightnesses.
Speaker C:There's just so many variables to an instrument.
Speaker C:It doesn't have to be something that you.
Speaker C:That you know.
Speaker B:That's why stuff like AI pisses me off.
Speaker B:Because back in our day, if you wanted to like create music, you'd have to get like four friends.
Speaker B:You have to find a rehearsal space.
Speaker B:You don't have to get instruments, you have to learn how to play them.
Speaker B:You'd have to suck for a long time.
Speaker B:You have to keep playing and keep playing and get better, get better, write your own stuff.
Speaker B:And then next thing you know, you're in a band, you're a musician.
Speaker B:Now you just go to Suno and you type in, I want a song that sounds like this and this and this.
Speaker B:And it'll rip off a hundred other things and then vomit out this fucking piece of crap.
Speaker B:And you're saying, oh, that sounds really good.
Speaker B:And you're going to release that as something.
Speaker B:And now I saw today what Suno's getting sued for what could amount to be a billion dollar lawsuit for copyright infringement.
Speaker B:Because of course that's all it does is infringe on copyrights and what other artists are doing.
Speaker B:So, you know, there is something, at least one of my proudest moments as a father.
Speaker B:I took my kid to see Buck Cherry and Alice Cooper and we got like second row and I asked her afterwards, like, what was your favorite part of the concert?
Speaker B:She said, well, I loved watching Buck Cherry because she had a huge crush on the singer.
Speaker B:He had no shirt on.
Speaker B:But she said, like, but watching Alice Cooper, I loved watching them play and like trying to figure out because there's a.
Speaker B:There's three guitar players in Alice Cooper.
Speaker B:Like, I loved watching Nita Strauss and the other two dudes, like, who's playing what section?
Speaker B:And she was enamored watching the musicians.
Speaker B:It wasn't about the.
Speaker B:The show or the spectacle.
Speaker B:She was watching the band and I thought that was really cool because I'm kind of doing the same thing.
Speaker B:I watch.
Speaker B:You must have been all weeping for a totally different.
Speaker B:I was watching Nina for totally different reason because she's wearing the tail of their pants and it's like.
Speaker B:But yeah, I get.
Speaker B:Yeah, she can play too.
Speaker A:Todd, what was that sound effect we're supposed to institute into the show?
Speaker A:We're gonna use it as our.
Speaker A:Know what before we end recording, we're all gonna do it and that's gonna be our spinning sound for this.
Speaker A:The wheel of.
Speaker D:Don't drag us into your.
Speaker D:Your sex games.
Speaker D:I'm having nothing to do with this.
Speaker A:We have this thing.
Speaker A:We have this thing at work when we're like something really bad happens and then the one guy goes.
Speaker A:And then everybody all does it together in harmony.
Speaker A:It's beautiful.
Speaker A:I gotta.
Speaker A:Record that.
Speaker B:You need me to play some sound clips for you?
Speaker A:You're a big fat curly headed.
Speaker B:I got a few.
Speaker D:Do you think some of you talking about kind of, you know, with Suno and with some of these bands these days, you know, who was the.
Speaker D:Who's the idiot who put that out.
Speaker D:Put out that AI song.
Speaker D:Who was in a band?
Speaker D:Corey, we were talking about.
Speaker A:You mean Al Yankovic?
Speaker C:Who.
Speaker D:No.
Speaker A:People thought was AI?
Speaker A:You heard that joke?
Speaker B:One is introducing me to some new music she just found on Spotify.
Speaker B:What's it called?
Speaker C:Weird.
Speaker C:It's called Fat, but it's called.
Speaker A:It's from Weird AI.
Speaker C:So AI.
Speaker B:So Weird AI.
Speaker B:So AI made.
Speaker C:This is.
Speaker B:This is from Weird AI.
Speaker B:Yeah.
Speaker B:And Weird AI made a song called, called Fat and it's funny.
Speaker B:Yeah.
Speaker A:And it's supposed to be like from.
Speaker C:A song, like from others.
Speaker B:So like.
Speaker B:Oh, so AI took.
Speaker A:It's like Thriller.
Speaker A:They just replaced the lyrics.
Speaker B:Gotcha.
Speaker B:AI took like Michael Jackson songs.
Speaker C:Yes.
Speaker B:And replaced the lyrics.
Speaker B:So instead of like Thriller, it's filler.
Speaker A:Yeah.
Speaker B:Okay.
Speaker B:All right, go.
Speaker B:This is Weird AI.
Speaker B:How'd you find this?
Speaker B:Jc or my friend.
Speaker B:This is weird AI.
Speaker B:Oh, yes.
Speaker D:Okay.
Speaker D:So I. I think that what that misses for me at least anyways, if I write a song and I take a song to my buddy Randy and I go into the studio, record it, it.
Speaker D:What I enjoy is the process of doing that.
Speaker B:Yes.
Speaker D:It's not really the end product.
Speaker D:I'm as.
Speaker D:As.
Speaker D:I mean, you know, you want the end product to be cool and you put it out there and if people listen to it, awesome.
Speaker D:But the process of making that music and coming up with something that didn't exist before, that's the thrilling bit, that's the exciting bit.
Speaker D:And I think that that's why, you know, quote unquote, real musicians, that's why they do it.
Speaker D:It's the same with going on stage.
Speaker D:It's like, well, I could go on stage of mine.
Speaker D:But yeah, at that point, I'm just a dancer.
Speaker D:I want to go and play my guitar.
Speaker D:And if I can't play it brilliantly, maybe we go play different songs then.
Speaker D:Or maybe we do.
Speaker D:Maybe we'll work around it and I'll, like you said with the Eagles, right.
Speaker D:Bring in a different.
Speaker D:Bring in another guitar player, make sure they're on stage with you.
Speaker D:Then the audience knows what they get and you're still There.
Speaker D:I just don't see the point of just the product.
Speaker D:The end sort of that product being the.
Speaker D:The focus rather than the process.
Speaker D:Because process is.
Speaker D:That's.
Speaker D:That's the art bit of it.
Speaker D:Right.
Speaker A:Yeah, actually, that's it.
Speaker C:Because they don't want to pay anyone else to.
Speaker C:To do the.
Speaker A:Sarzo has no money.
Speaker A:Like, he's broke.
Speaker A:He's never been in a popular band.
Speaker B:No.
Speaker B:Like, what's his net worth?
Speaker B:His net worth is a paltry 4 million, I think you said.
Speaker B:Right.
Speaker B:Something around that.
Speaker A:Is it really only 4 million for all the albums he was on?
Speaker D:What the did you do with your money?
Speaker A:Cocaine.
Speaker D:Lots of it.
Speaker A:Wow.
Speaker A:He should be worth way more than that.
Speaker A:The Aussie albums alone.
Speaker A:Just that alone.
Speaker A:That's right.
Speaker A:Sharon doesn't pay anybody.
Speaker A:Never mind.
Speaker B:Well, nobody.
Speaker D:Just.
Speaker D:He doesn't write anything on those albums.
Speaker D:He's not getting writing credit.
Speaker D:I mean, he's really then just a.
Speaker C:Bass player, just a hired gun.
Speaker A:And like.
Speaker A:Like Robert Trujillo or whatever when he joined METALLICA.
Speaker B:Here's a 1 million signing bonus.
Speaker C:Yeah.
Speaker A:Like, are you what you're getting?
Speaker B:25% Of the entire Metallica Corporation.
Speaker C:Yeah.
Speaker B:That day changed his life,.
Speaker A:You know, quit after one year and you're set.
Speaker B:Yeah.
Speaker B:Where's Bon Jovi has 14 musicians, I think are in Bon Jovi right now currently, and they're making minimum wage sections of.
Speaker B:Interesting.
Speaker A:They're getting minimum wage.
Speaker B:Yeah, they're making less than minimum wage.
Speaker B:They all eat at John Soup Kitchen in New York.
Speaker B:Phil X is the only musician.
Speaker B:They're going.
Speaker B:God, I feel so lonely up here because.
Speaker D:So Rotary.
Speaker B:So Rory.
Speaker B:So very.
Speaker B:John Shanks is there wheeling away in a guitar that's not plugged in because he can't play anything.
Speaker A:Oh, fuck.
Speaker B:Don't bring up that.
Speaker A:Don't break it up.
Speaker A:That motherfucker.
Speaker A:Take that name out of your mouth.
Speaker D:I've said it before.
Speaker D:I'll say it again.
Speaker D:Putting Phil X and Bon Jovi is like putting platinum rims on your garbage can.
Speaker B:Joke.
Speaker B:Putting platinum rims on your pedal van.
Speaker B:Kevin.
Speaker C:Hey, hey.
Speaker D:At least that's a vehicle.
Speaker A:Okay, Allegedly, Todd brought.
Speaker B:How many times did we get stuck last year on the podcasters retreat?
Speaker D:Only once.
Speaker A:Okay, so Todd brought up something interesting earlier, and we're totally fucking.
Speaker A:I still want to keep with this topic, but Todd brought up something that was very, very interesting.
Speaker A:That brought up an interesting point which brings up a category of pass or go.
Speaker A:How about that?
Speaker D:Excellent.
Speaker A:Look how that works.
Speaker C:Wow.
Speaker D:The link magician.
Speaker A:Yeah.
Speaker B:I hand over My Master of Segway title to Sean McGinty.
Speaker A:So Todd was talking about.
Speaker A:Oh, I've already spoiled it here.
Speaker A:Wait.
Speaker A:What are you looking at here?
Speaker A:Here we go.
Speaker A:Anyway, so just.
Speaker A:Just close your eyes and pretend you don't see anything.
Speaker A:So this guy.
Speaker A:We're gonna keep it.
Speaker A:Keep the.
Speaker A:The excitement for the audience because they can't see this video.
Speaker A:But there was a guy that I saw play live, and he didn't have a proper instrument, so he built his own.
Speaker A:So I want to play.
Speaker A:I don't.
Speaker A:You guys have probably never heard him before, but I want to play just a little bit.
Speaker A:And it's a live video, so those that are in.
Speaker A:Not here, can't see anything, but whatever.
Speaker A:Anyway, I've seen this.
Speaker A:I saw this guy at Folk Fest, and he performed three or four times at Folk Fest.
Speaker A:And this is his instrument that he built himself.
Speaker A:So you guys ready to hear this?
Speaker A:You guys ready?
Speaker C:Oh, no, no.
Speaker A:Let's go back to the beginning here.
Speaker B:The Moon is disgusting.
Speaker B:Yes.
Speaker B:It's a great title.
Speaker A:So this is called the Magic Pipe.
Speaker D:That's what she said.
Speaker A:So it's a PVC pipe with a string with two strings, one on each pipe.
Speaker A:Sam.
Speaker B:It's obviously got to run into some.
Speaker D:Kind of effects unit then.
Speaker A:Oh, yeah, Mike's up at the top there.
Speaker A:So, yeah, there's a trigger.
Speaker A:Triggers on the top in multiple points and then foot pedals on the bottom to control the distortion or.
Speaker A:Or whatever.
Speaker A:He's gonna rock out here in a second.
Speaker A:Just give him a second.
Speaker A:He's got a floor tom or a kick Dr.
Speaker A:The bigger the pond is, the fatter the ge.
Speaker A:The deeper the water.
Speaker A:The deeper the free, the sweeter the blood is.
Speaker A:The adds electric guitar here.
Speaker A:He's got the snare.
Speaker A:Okay, so immediate reaction from.
Speaker A:From you all.
Speaker A:Are you spending the whole video going, how does.
Speaker A:How is he doing that?
Speaker A:How's he doing that?
Speaker A:Are you actually listening to the song?
Speaker B:How's this thing to the song?
Speaker D:Yeah, a little bit of both.
Speaker D:I mean, it's.
Speaker D:It's the same with any of these sort of gimmicks, right?
Speaker D:It's even the same with, like, Black Keys, White Stripes, you know, Royal Blood.
Speaker D:Just get a band, man.
Speaker D:Come on, guys, and make it a band.
Speaker D:I mean, I get it, but some Ed Sheeran, Same thing.
Speaker D:Like, come on, dude, just get a band now.
Speaker D:You're a millionaire.
Speaker A:Just.
Speaker D:You know what I mean?
Speaker D:It's cool, but I mean, would you want to sit and listen to an hour and a half of that I think that might start to wear on you a little bit.
Speaker B:You know, Sean, I sent you a link in the chat for the Kevin Brown's Get A Band.
Speaker B:This is one of my favorite one man bands.
Speaker B:He calls himself Steel Beans.
Speaker A:Steel Beans.
Speaker B:Steel Beans.
Speaker D:And I think he's wonderful, that one guy.
Speaker D:I mean, it's cool, right?
Speaker D:Like, it's super inventive and interesting, but.
Speaker D:And the song was.
Speaker D:The song was kind of cool.
Speaker A:Yeah.
Speaker D:But just like I said, you're making.
Speaker D:You're making life really hard for yourself.
Speaker B:Sure.
Speaker B:So looks like a Kevin.
Speaker A:So here's the interesting thing about this dude.
Speaker A:So I get.
Speaker A:I got a chance to meet him, which was fantastic.
Speaker A:He's like the friendliest guy.
Speaker A:He's also friends with Buckethead if you know who Buckethead is.
Speaker C:Oh yeah.
Speaker A:And Buckethead is another guy who's just fucking weird with his music.
Speaker A:Right.
Speaker A:But so this is just like one song and he's.
Speaker A:And he's got like an album and it's all kind of similar to this, but he also has other instruments.
Speaker A:He's built.
Speaker A:He built a boot.
Speaker A:It's fucking.
Speaker A:Probably fucking Josh sending me messages here.
Speaker A:I better turn him off.
Speaker A:He's like, why aren't you streaming?
Speaker A:Because we're not streaming.
Speaker A:So he built a boot with a mic in it and he does percussion on the boot.
Speaker A:He also has a saw blade that he's got pickups on it that he plays the saw blade.
Speaker A:He's just kind of bending it and going.
Speaker A:And he does over the Rainbow.
Speaker A:Somewhere over the rainbow with it.
Speaker A:It.
Speaker A:So fairly talented guy.
Speaker A:So he's like.
Speaker A:All this music is just like a little bit strange.
Speaker A:Bizarre, right?
Speaker A:So this is what's his main set.
Speaker A:When he played the main stage at.
Speaker A:At Folk Fest and it's like, oh, this is, you know, this is awesome stuff.
Speaker A:So then he goes and plays at the side stage and the side stage is where they grab.
Speaker A:Where they grab one musician from this band, one musician from that band.
Speaker A:And then they, you know, and they kind of.
Speaker A:They kind of build like a band.
Speaker A:Okay, well, we're going to grab you.
Speaker A:You're going to play bass and we're going to grab you and you're going to play guitar and we're going to grab.
Speaker A:You're going to sing and it's all made up music on stage.
Speaker A:It's like a live jam.
Speaker A:And.
Speaker A:And so they threw him in with a bunch of jazz musicians and he was playing bass on his magic pipe and he was playing jazz like Miles Davis y kind of Stuff and whatever.
Speaker A:And I was like, holy fuck.
Speaker A:Like, I thought he was just like a, you know, kind of weird geek, kind of bizarre, you know, buckethead sort of music.
Speaker A:But now he's playing jazz, like flat, like straight jazz.
Speaker C:Okay, thank you.
Speaker C:Found it.
Speaker A:Yeah, just straight jazz.
Speaker A:Hi, Donda.
Speaker A:Anyway, so he just plays like in pure jazz.
Speaker A:Like, not like weird shit, but actual jazz, you know, like Vince Garibaldi or Miles Davis or whatever.
Speaker A:Like pure, pure jazz.
Speaker A:Nat King Cole, like just jazz, jazz, jazz.
Speaker A:It's like, okay.
Speaker A:Holy fuck.
Speaker A:How the fuck did he do this?
Speaker A:So then he played a free concert in the campground in Pope's Hill.
Speaker A:So there's this big hill for when the Pope came to Winnipeg.
Speaker A:And he sets up a stage there and does a free show and does a complete techno set, complete EDM music.
Speaker A:Like.
Speaker A:Like that shit.
Speaker B:It's like.
Speaker D:Yeah.
Speaker A:Holy fuck.
Speaker A:So his magic pipe is kind of like, kind of a cool thing, but he can actually play it as an actual mic.
Speaker A:Not kitschy or weird, but as an actual instrument.
Speaker A:So he's not always staying in his lane.
Speaker A:He's like, this is just, you know, one song out of his catalog.
Speaker A:But he's never staying in his lane, so at least he's not.
Speaker A:Yeah, he's a one man band, but he's doing something interesting with it, if that makes sense.
Speaker D:A lot of those guys, though, they are like incredibly talented.
Speaker B:Right.
Speaker D:But they just get a bit bored with the conventional thing.
Speaker D:What's that?
Speaker D:PVC pipeline.
Speaker D:And I'll go and see if I can do something that.
Speaker A:Yeah.
Speaker D:And to get something out of it that's actually in tune, you got to kind of know what you're doing.
Speaker D:Right.
Speaker A:So this, you can imagine that instrument is probably like a one of a kind, right?
Speaker A:Oh, yeah, it got stolen.
Speaker C:No way.
Speaker D:Oh, no way.
Speaker A:Yeah, it's like.
Speaker B:It's like a flute.
Speaker C:A flute is just basically a tube with a bunch of holes drilled in it.
Speaker B:Yeah.
Speaker A:Really?
Speaker C:And you don't really know what it's going to sound like until you.
Speaker C:But at some point, I mean, I'm sure it was.
Speaker C:The very first one was probably made out of wood.
Speaker C:Right.
Speaker C:And then you had to whittle out the holes and.
Speaker A:Yeah.
Speaker C:You know.
Speaker C:Or however they did it.
Speaker A:That's right, Herc.
Speaker A:That's right.
Speaker B:That's really true, Todd.
Speaker B:A flute is just a pipe.
Speaker C:Yeah.
Speaker B:That's profound.
Speaker C:Yeah.
Speaker C:Well, you blow through that one.
Speaker C:But his abs or PVC tube, he put a couple strings on it.
Speaker B:Do you see?
Speaker A:IV like, like irritable bowel abs.
Speaker A:Oh, okay.
Speaker C:Sorry.
Speaker D:Real chop.
Speaker B:He built that while having ibs.
Speaker B:That's really impressive.
Speaker D:Driving home and notices his instrument at the side of someone's house.
Speaker C:That's another sound effect.
Speaker D:Drain you.
Speaker A:There's another guy, which I think Kevin might know who is.
Speaker A:There was a guy named Xavier Rudd.
Speaker A:He was a one man band guy too.
Speaker B:What do you think?
Speaker D:Yes.
Speaker D:Plenty of those guys.
Speaker D:I mean, I was listening to Muslim Katie Tunsall the other day.
Speaker D:Same type of thing, right?
Speaker D:She'd use a loop pedal, big black horse in a cherry tree, and suddenly I seen all that kind of stuff.
Speaker D:So she'd do Ed Sheeran does it on stage at Me and Karen went inside sheer and L. 10, 12 years ago or something before he was like, well, he's probably massive by then, but I'd only just heard of him, so I didn't know he bigger was.
Speaker D:So we went to that show and seeing someone do that live on stage and build those parts up and have it not suck and not be boring was super interesting.
Speaker D:Now by the encore, I'm like, I still think you'd be better with a band.
Speaker D:If you've got a really good band together, you just sound better just to.
Speaker A:Back them up, you know?
Speaker A:But watching it is give them room to do.
Speaker A:Do more stuff.
Speaker D:Super impressive.
Speaker A:Yeah.
Speaker B:Right, Sean, that's your cue to play Steel Beans.
Speaker C:Now.
Speaker B:The link is in the comments.
Speaker A:Oh, yeah.
Speaker A:Okay.
Speaker D:Don't forget, you can hot.
Speaker D:You can hide it for passing Go.
Speaker D:You can hide the screen.
Speaker B:You just put it on your other.
Speaker D:Monitor and we'll still hear the sound, you know?
Speaker D:All right.
Speaker B:You can't teach an old dog new tricks, Kev.
Speaker C:You should know that.
Speaker A:I mean, I. I can hear my fridge running now.
Speaker A:That's good.
Speaker B:Hey, we're getting somewhere.
Speaker A:But now I don't have any ice for my drink, so I guess I gotta drink it fucking straight.
Speaker B:Well, you gotta show the video.
Speaker A:Oh, this guy.
Speaker A:Oh, fuck.
Speaker A:Yeah, I know this guy.
Speaker A:Okay.
Speaker D:Okay.
Speaker D:This is awesome.
Speaker B:Show the video.
Speaker B:This guy's awesome.
Speaker B:Playing an acoustic kit and electric guitar and singing at the same time.
Speaker A:Yeah, this guy's awesome.
Speaker A:Okay, let me just share this.
Speaker C:Share.
Speaker C:Not the guy in the street, is it?
Speaker C:He's got his legs.
Speaker C:He goes up and down when he plays.
Speaker B:Hey, wait, we get it.
Speaker A:We get.
Speaker A:We got to give her a vote on the pass or go on the last.
Speaker A:On the last guy.
Speaker A:Was it.
Speaker A:Was that enough to listen to?
Speaker D:To.
Speaker B:I would.
Speaker D:I would give it a listen.
Speaker D:Yeah, I'd give it a go.
Speaker B:Yep.
Speaker A:Yeah.
Speaker C:Yeah, a certain mood would be.
Speaker A:Yeah, I mean, I've seen him play like three times that one weekend and then like twice after that.
Speaker A:Like I see him every time he comes through.
Speaker A:He's awesome.
Speaker A:Okay.
Speaker A:Steel be.
Speaker A:Oh my God, Todd, have you seen this guy?
Speaker C:No.
Speaker B:Okay, he's got his.
Speaker C:No, I do.
Speaker C:I do recognize the.
Speaker C:Was it Dan Electro or.
Speaker A:I recognize his belly sears guitar.
Speaker C:Like, what is that a honey?
Speaker A:Okay, let's.
Speaker A:Let's play.
Speaker A:This is a true passer.
Speaker C:Go.
Speaker A:Are we going to do a versus a versus between steel beans versus that one guy?
Speaker A:All right, here we go.
Speaker B:This one's a minute, so.
Speaker C:Sure.
Speaker C:Okay.
Speaker B:I'm just listening to the whole thing.
Speaker A:All right, let's go.
Speaker A:How do you do that drum roll?
Speaker A:He's got like a double bass going on or something.
Speaker D:Yeah.
Speaker D:Has got a lot to answer for, man.
Speaker C:The first.
Speaker C:First in.
Speaker C:The first thing that comes to mind is this guy was on like a five day binge playing World of Warcraft in his basement and.
Speaker C:And now he's just taking a break.
Speaker A:Yeah, we gotta do some exercise, man.
Speaker C:Yeah, more cheesy poofs.
Speaker D:Just like there's one of those guys who on the Internet there is literally nothing he won't masturbate to.
Speaker D:Nothing doesn't exist.
Speaker B:Including his own video.
Speaker D:Exactly.
Speaker C:Ye.
Speaker B:Hey.
Speaker A:Okay, this is.
Speaker A:This might be a piece of Winnipeg lore.
Speaker A:Todd, do you remember that guy on public access when we moved here?
Speaker A:There was a guy, I can't remember what his name was, but he had a big fro and he had his guitar and he would play and he had like.
Speaker A:Remember those little like trampolines, like single person trampolines you could have in your living room?
Speaker A:It's just barely big enough to fit your feet on and you just jump up and down.
Speaker A:Well, on the Public access, he would play his guitar on there.
Speaker A:And jumping up and down on his little mini trampoline.
Speaker A:Do you remember that guy?
Speaker C:I've always said that you have a different view of music than I do.
Speaker B:I have.
Speaker B:No.
Speaker B:And the things.
Speaker C:No.
Speaker C:And the things that interest you.
Speaker C:I just.
Speaker C:I don't.
Speaker B:They're kind of off the wall.
Speaker C:Like, I. I can't relate.
Speaker C:I. I don't know.
Speaker B:Hey, you can.
Speaker A:You can add shit to the pass or go categories.
Speaker A:I haven't seen you add anything to pass or go.
Speaker A:So if you don't like the music being played.
Speaker B:Come on.
Speaker A:It's called jump on the dit chord.
Speaker A:Put a couple suggestions in there.
Speaker A:Or you can use the topic too.
Speaker A:We didn't play Kev's intro song.
Speaker C:But I do like that song.
Speaker C:That is a good song.
Speaker C:He does play it very well.
Speaker C:It's just the visuals kind of.
Speaker A:Ladies and gentlemen, I want to see it.
Speaker A:I want to welcome Kevin Brown to the show.
Speaker A:We didn't intro him, so here we are.
Speaker A:We're going to intro him.
Speaker A:Oh, Kevin,.
Speaker D:I don't like you.
Speaker A:So Randy's got to play that every time you come on.
Speaker A:Like, every time you introduce.
Speaker A:Introduce yourself on UCC on your.
Speaker A:On seaside pod.
Speaker D:Thankfully, I have the microphone, so he.
Speaker A:Will listen to every damn word I have to say.
Speaker A:You know what?
Speaker A:I do it because.
Speaker A:I do it because I love you.
Speaker A:And it's easy.
Speaker A:It's fun to tease you.
Speaker A:It is fun to tease you.
Speaker B:I gotta say, though, I think I won in the theme song category.
Speaker B:I'm gonna play mine all the time.
Speaker B:Oh, especially.
Speaker B:It's appropriate.
Speaker A:It's appropriate, right?
Speaker B:Yeah.
Speaker D:Goosebumps.
Speaker D:I got that Gene Simmons thing.
Speaker D:How come you get the cool stuff and I got the Gene Simmons?
Speaker A:Wait, who's your least favorite person?
Speaker A:Corey.
Speaker A:In music?
Speaker B:John Shanks.
Speaker A:So let's.
Speaker B:Kevin and I are going to go see a Bon Jovi tribute band, and we're going to hold up signs and say, john Shanks can lick my taint.
Speaker A:Hey, Kevin, can you.
Speaker A:You and Randy maybe put together a John Shanks greatest hits sort of song for Corey?
Speaker B:Would that be.
Speaker B:I don't know.
Speaker A:Oh, my God.
Speaker A:I was listening to Mixtapes from Hell today.
Speaker A:You said the funniest thing.
Speaker B:You're.
Speaker A:You're talking about the Survivor.
Speaker A:You bought the Survivor album or whatever, backgrade, and you said, it's Survivor's greatest hits.
Speaker A:And I'm like, no, you got that wrong.
Speaker A:Survivor's greatest hit.
Speaker C:Yeah.
Speaker A:One song on the album.
Speaker A:Oh, it's Tease.
Speaker A:I'm sorry.
Speaker A:I know you like, once.
Speaker D:I only know one song.
Speaker A:I only know one song.
Speaker B:They had a few minor hits, too.
Speaker B:I will say.
Speaker B:They're just known for that one.
Speaker A:Yeah, yeah.
Speaker D:It's a good song.
Speaker A:It's a great song.
Speaker B:It's a damn good song.
Speaker B:It's iconic.
Speaker C:Yeah.
Speaker D:Yeah.
Speaker B:It's the greatest sports montage song ever.
Speaker A:All right, so what are we voting on the Steel Beans guy?
Speaker A:Because people want to know.
Speaker B:Oh, that's Go all day.
Speaker C:Yeah, let's go.
Speaker A:That's.
Speaker B:I'm gonna get Steel Beans to play my wedding anniversary dressed like that.
Speaker B:His gut is mesmerizing.
Speaker C:Show up at the bar.
Speaker C:Just drink down.
Speaker C:Okay, Just start playing.
Speaker D:You know, it's just full of lint as well.
Speaker D:It doesn't.
Speaker D:There's no.
Speaker D:There's no, you know.
Speaker B:Oh, no going on down there.
Speaker A:So everyone gave it a thumbs up.
Speaker A:Everybody gave it.
Speaker B:Oh, God.
Speaker B:Yeah.
Speaker B:Okay.
Speaker A:So if we had to.
Speaker A:If we had to compare that one guy to Steel Beans, who wins out?
Speaker A:Who's the most entertaining of the two?
Speaker A:You.
Speaker B:I thought still beats was more entertaining.
Speaker A:Myself, but I agree.
Speaker B:I think.
Speaker D:So I'm gonna dissent.
Speaker D:I'm gonna go that one guy.
Speaker D:Because I think the song was.
Speaker D:I like this song more.
Speaker D:I thought the song was more interesting anyway.
Speaker D:But yeah.
Speaker B:Steel Beans.
Speaker B:And I like these drumming like he's doing those runs with one hand.
Speaker A:Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Speaker C:For innovation.
Speaker C:The guy with the tube, I guess, wins.
Speaker C:But yeah.
Speaker B:Inventing his own instrument.
Speaker C:Yeah.
Speaker A:And then having to rebuild it a second time after it got stolen.
Speaker B:And like, Todd put it up.
Speaker B:Probably sounding totally different now too, because.
Speaker D:Yeah.
Speaker B:A flute is just a pipe with holes.
Speaker D:For life, ladies and gentlemen.
Speaker B:I don't know how to get that on a motivational poster I could hang in my bedroom.
Speaker A:That's right.
Speaker A:Material to use.
Speaker B:Big bald head.
Speaker B:A flute is just a pipe.
