Bonus Episode: Heart Issues and Hurricanes

into the dirt. On this bonus episode, we are talking about this week's subject of the Disgraceland full episode, Brandon Lee from the excellent movie The Crow with the most excellent soundtrack, more from the Sean Combe story, and some special announcements from the world of Disgraceland. And of course we are diving into your voicemails, text and more. As always, a whole lot of rosie. All right, disc goes, let's get into it, and they say there's a heaven for

those who will wait. Some say it's better, but I say it. I'd rather laugh with the sinners than cry with the saints. The sinners are much more fun. You know that only the good die young. That, of course is Billy Joel from his nineteen seventy eight hit Only the Good Die Young. Brandon Lee, the subject of this week's Disgraceland after Party, died young at twenty eight years old. By all accounts, Brandon Lee was one of the good ones. His father, Bruce Lee, died young too, at the age

of thirty two years old. Lisa Lopez, Bob Marley, Amy Winehouse, Nipsey Hustle, all previous Disgraceland subjects, they all died young, and despite being complicated and sometimes protic individuals, I believe them all to be good at heart. Other disgrace on subjects, some real bastards are either still breathing or lived long, full lives. Jerry Lee, Lewis, Big Lurch, var Vicinus, Ike Turner, to name just a few. They of course not good people. They were or are bad bad men. But Billy Joel

was onto something. Though that statement only the Good die young, it isn't absolute. Tupac secure in the Notorious Big They died, okay. Tupac was twenty five, Biggie was just twenty four. I'm not saying either were good. Tupac especially was at times a horrendous human being and Biggie had his issues too, but still they were young men. Had they lived, you can make the case that they could have probably redeemed themselves. Who knows. Twenty four and twenty five far too young

to go though. Okay, Tupac and Biggie had a lot in common. They were, of course friends, then famously enemies, and now a part of the same unsolved murder mystery

conspiracy theory. They also shared a common friend at one time anyway, and Sean Puff Daddy Ditty Comb's Biggie was Ditty's meal ticket, the start that helped Ditty than Puffy forever Shawn Combs to launch his career into the stratosphere, and Tupac was if we're to believe the recent theories floating around TikTok, Tupac was allegedly Sean Combs is lover. I'm emphasizing allegedly because as far as I can tell, this is just a rumor. That said, I'm not discounting it.

There is a credible source alleging that at the very least Seawn Combs up until the right now, is and always has been obsessed with Tupac. It should be noted that there are less credible sources claiming right now that Tupac's family has hired new legal representation to investigate Ditty's involvement in Tupac's death. But again, like I said, less credible sources, I'm not so sure Sean Combs killed Tupac. It's just too neat, tidy of an ending. It's too Hollywood.

But a lot of other presumed good people in Shawn Combs's orbit have died young ish, and it's kind of weird and worth mentioning, Okay. Kim Porter, Shawn Combs's girlfriend, the mother of three of his children, and former Uptown Records employee and co worker of Shawn Combs. She died some would say, very mysteriously at the age of forty eight from pneumonia back in twenty eighteen. Andre Herrel, founder of Uptown Records, the label where Diddy and kim Porter

started out. He died back in twenty twenty, a healthy man from sudden heart problems. Uptown Records artists Heavy D remember Heavy D in the Boys Heavy D. He died back in twenty eleven from a pulmonary embolism. After Seawn Combs and Andre Pharrell had a vicious falling out. Combs, of course, then went on to start bad Boy Records, where he signed, among other artists, Craig Mack. Craig Mack died in twenty eighteen at the age of just forty seven.

Like Andre Harrell from Heart Problems, bad Boy artist Black Rob, he died in twenty twenty one from cardiac arrest. Okay, there's a lot of conjecture around the deaths of all these music industry professionals and artists connected to Sean Combs. Now, lots of people die from heart problems, lots of people die young. But given the individual that we are talking about here, Sean Combs, Diddy, this amount of people, all whom were financially entangled one way or another with Sean

Combs VIA's record label business, you have to pause to wonder. Okay, it's pretty pretty I'm channeling my inner Larry David. It's just too damn coincidental. And I'm not saying that there's some grand conspiracy at play here. I'm saying that this deserves a little more research, a little more than I've been able to give it. I have seen, I have seen this conspiracy theory pop up numerous times on TikTok, Jaguar right is all over it, but I have seen

nothing to substantiate it. I've seen nothing that actually ties a thread of credible sourcing through all of this. It makes me go, hmm, there's something there. There's motive, there's intent, there's will, all that stuff. I have not seen any of that yet. I've only seen, like I said, conjecture. But still, I'm a grown man with my big boy pants on. Okay, I'm not going to shy from a conspiracy theory just because it's a conspiracy theory. At the

same time, I'm not going to promote it as being fact. This, despite there not being any proof that I've seen yet, deserves a little more research. So I'm going to dive into this for you guys, and I will report back. And I'm not sure how I'm gonna do that. Maybe I'll do it in an afterparty. Maybe there'll be a full episode on this. I'm not sure, but something's coming. I'm going to look into this a little more fully. Okay.

Like I said, lots of conjecture around the deaths of all these music industry professionals and artists connected to Combs. Lots of people like I said, they die from heart problems, they die young. I'm going to get into these desks and the weeks. But I'm also I'm very compelled by

this one. Here the allegation surrounding Diddy jay z in the death of Kathy White aka Becky with the Good Hair, who died Okay, another one dying young while pregnant at just the age of twenty eight suddenly from a brain aneurysm. Wasn't heart related, brain aneurysm. I'm going to look into this as well. This is this is incredibly salacious, and I'm going to report back to you guys on what I can find. As always, I will give you the straight dirt on the sour, saying, Okay, who I think

is credible, who I think is not credible? And why now I'm talking about these deaths because like it or not, they're part of the Shawan Combs story, which is vast, and this story is unfurling at in real time and it's coming. It's all coming to light publicly. He's not even near trial yet. Every day new news breaks, and I suspect that by the time you hear this episode, more news will have broken on Seawan Combs, perhaps rendering this particular subject that I'm discussing with you right now,

the deaths around Combs. Perhaps new news breaks before you hear this that renders this subject to be a little less relevant. I say this because I'm recording this bonus episode for you early. I'm recording on Tuesday. I usually do it on Wednesday, get it out to you on Thursday, so that I can be as close to the episode as possible in the information while you're hearing it. However, some of you may have heard there's a massive hurricane

coming my way. I'm in Florida and I need tomorrow Wednesday, of the day I would normally record this episode to you know, basically, hunker down and good chance I'm going to lose power, So you're getting it now. I hope everyone else there who's a little more fully in the line of the hurricane. I hope you guys are getting

out of dodge. I hope you're safe. But anyways, that's why I think there might be a chance of what I'm saying to you now being a little less relevant by the time you hear it to days later because of the hurricane. And we know this Shaan Combs story is a hurricane. Nothing is going to stop it. There's been some news over the last week since we last talked.

The big news I suspect that we're going to get in the coming days though, in the coming weeks is the story that I mentioned last week with the quote unquote more high profile individual featured in the sex video with Combs. If you recall, attorney Aerial Mitchell Kid has claimed publicly that the owners of this video of the alleged more high profile participant, has been shopping a catch and kill deal. Well, now this news has developed slightly.

An Aerial Mitchell Kid again, the attorney. She's back on News Nation and she's making this news Okay, that the high profile person in the video is trying to catch and kill this themselves, trying to purchase this, but they are bidding for ownership of the video. They are bidding against two major news networks to gain control of this video to keep it from coming out. Okay, we shall see. Even if this is an A list celebrity on the video, who really cares? Okay, it's not against a law to

have sex. It's not against a lot to have sex on video, even if you're a very short, very funny comedian who not only stars in commercials with Lebron James, but who also MC's Diddy Parties and Tom Brady Roasi. Even if you're that guy, it's not illegal to have sex. Okay. So if you show up on this video, if your heart gets broken and you show up on this video, perhaps even if you're having sex with Sean Combs in

this video, end of the day, who really cares? Now, if there's a miner in the room, if there's a miner in this video with you, well then you're fucked. Okay. You got more than a broken heart to worry about, all right. And if you were to then say, I don't know, die young of say a sudden heart issue, I'm not so sure Billy Joel will be singing you any songs. Right, You get what I'm saying here, all right? Switching gears, we have an episode on the band The

Cramps coming next week. And uh, as you're listening, guys, you'll hear that this is a story about a rock and roll band, a real rock and roll band, real rock and roll, not rock rock and roll. You'll hear the difference in the episode. And when you're listening to this episode, please be thinking about what band, what what band out there made the greatest rock and roll of all time? Gotta be a band, and I'm not talking

about rock music. I get into the difference. I get into the difference and definition between rock and roll and rock in the episode. I don't want to do it here, okay, but just no rock and roll down, dirty fun, guitar driven music for teenagers, music that makes you feel like a teenager, okay, So loosely based on that definition, I guess what band, in your estimation made the greatest rock and roll music of all time? And why? I already know my answer. It's a pretty basic one, but I

want to know your answer. So hit me back six one seven, nine oh six sixty six three eight voicemail on tech at Disgrace Lampod on the socials, Disgrace Lampod at gmail dot com on email, and I will answer answer you guys here in the next after Party Bonus episode. But right now, let me take a quick break back in the flash with some of your voicemails and texts and dms from last week. All right, guys, A couple of announcements the live stream event that we had scheduled

for Wednesday night, October ninth. It was, of course postponed due to the hurricane. I was unable to live stream live in the storm here in Florida. Tickets are being refunded as it's unclear due to travel that I have coming up, some other issues that we have going on, when we're gonna be able to set up another date. I'd rather just get you guys your bread back into your pockets. You can do what you will with it, and we'll do something around this story later in the

future at a to be determined time and place. All Right, I am excited to get you guys this story, the Tom DeLong story of government disclosure, government conspiracy ufology all that when we do, you will be the first to know. You'll be the first to know of the date, the venue, etc. But until then, like I said, you got your bread back. You can do with the what you want. Apologies to

those of you guys who bought tickets. I truly appreciate the support, and if you were looking forward to this event as much as I was, I just want to say there was literally nothing that we could do about this. It was a scheduled on the wrong day, October ninth. Can't control the weather, but just wanted to voice my gratitude to you guys. And yeah, we'll have something special coming up for you guys soon. Okay, another couple updates.

We have tweaked our podcast episode release schedule very slightly. You may have noticed that our full new episodes. I talked to you guys about this. I asked you what you thought. I received zero negative feedback on this for what we're planning on doing. So you may have noticed that our new full episodes, like the Brandon Lee episode that you just got this week, like the Cramps episode

that you're going to be getting next week. These new full episodes are now being released on Mondays after party bonus episodes like this one here that you're listening to, They're coming on Thursdays as usual. And Rewinds of course released on Friday. All right, so Monday, Thursday Friday, that's the release schedule. Now I mentioned the Cramps episode. I cannot wait for you to hear this Cramps episode. It's an instant favorite of mine. Okay, it's coming to you Monday.

I really hope you dig it. I want to hear your comments. We're so inspired by everything we're doing here in this dark and spooky October here, Halloween and Disgraceland has turned into my favorite time of the year. Somehow, I was never Halloween guy until I started this podcast. But listen, we got a lot, a lot of great episodes coming your way. We've got a Poltergeist Curse episode coming next week, I'm sorry, the week after the Cramps episode.

We have the story of the Exorcist coming after that. We've got a creepy episode on Harry Houdini coming in the All Access feed this month, and and rewind episodes on Black Sabbath, Ozzy Osbourne, Robert Johnson in one of my all time phase of course, the Misfits. Okay, final bit of housekeeping, we have our book club meeting virtually on October twenty ninth, where we will be reading and discussing while discussing the book we read, which is The Exorcist,

one of the best books that I've ever read. This book club is happening one day after our Exorcist episode comes out, so that should make it even extra fun and spooky. The Exorcist book club discussion goes down on October twenty ninth, just a couple days before Halloween. Pumped on this. So if you're looking for something cool to do this Halloween, Thean get in on our book club. All right, Okay, I have a confession to make. I lied. I have one more piece of news for you. Okay.

We have new dark and spooky October merchandise coming your way next week that we created in collaboration with a great artist named Spencer Alexander. These new Disgrace Sland merch items. Guys, we're doing two shirts fucking awesome. One is inspired by Black Sabbath Okay, the other is inspired by the Cramps, and we're doing it a bit different with these items.

We're only doing a limited release, okay. These shirts will be available to purchase as a drop next week and they're only gonna be available for one week and one week only, and then they're going by bye. Okay, keep an eye on our Instagram and our ex account at the Gray Sam Pod, and of course our website to view the items. I'm gonna send them out. They look great, they look fantastic, The designs are awesome. You guys are

gonna be stoked. And again that's coming next week and those items are only going to be available for one week's time. Okay, all right, enough for me. Let's hear from you, guys six one seven nine O six six six three eight Send me a text or a voicemail just like this caller from the nine to seventy.

was like the most fucking insane and tragic thing. His fucking jeep rolled down the driveway because like it had like some sort of parking break fanism issue, and it rolled down the driveway and pin him against his mailbox. So he died agonizing and flow and just like one of the worst things I could possibly imagine. You know, there was no fucking reason for that to happen, So I remained devastated and also, come on, guys, Anton gave us the green room, like, please put the respect on

this Sand's name. See, he died way too young and way too soon, and I will probably never get over it.

write about it. Anyone ever watched Six Feet Under. I loved that show. I loved how they opened every episode, how they had that kind of cold open bit and it was all just a different cause of death. I found that to be fascinating. That's that's what your story reminded me of, Michelle. All right, let's check in with Christina here in the nine to one seven.

core of it? So I can make it true crime and make it work on our side of the street. And I don't have an answer to that my own question when it comes to the Beastie Boys. But I just love the Beastie Boys so much that I want to figure out a way to do this. I want to figure out a way to write about that. And I know there's got to be something there. There's got to be something, some sort of crazy transgression, if not a crime that I can use to anchor this story,

and so I'm looking into that. Christine in the nine one seven. Thanks for bringing up yelp. I appreciate it all right, Matt, Let's do one more voicemail here. Let's check in with the two six.

But it was so surreal to see it. And at that time, Bruce Lee's headstone had it has a picture on it now, but at that time that part had been stolen because who would do is they would come into the cemetery and they would take that part off and they would sell it on the black market. So now it's been bolted down. Another thing I wanted to talk to you about real quick was last week to

tra have stid episode. Brother. I was in Vegas when that happened, and I remember when I put the gist of it together because I was going for another concert even though that happened in Houston. I remember I texted my friend who was coming in to meet me in Vegas, and I said, Hey, we're treading very carefully at this concert tonight that we're going to, so you can bet your last moneys. When I saw ghost Face with ak One and Jizza at that show, I was looking at

for all the exits. But thankfully we had a great time. And you know, I said, it's a respectful nobody was hurt anyway, doing what you do. Much love, talk to you later, Tony.

many texts, Like I said, so many texts. I just first of all, thank you, second of all, know that I'm reading them. If I'm not responding to all of them here in the after party, and if I'm not responding via text, just know that I read them all, okay, and I'm just stoked on the engagement. So this one comes from the seven oh three. Hey, Jake, this is Mary from the seven oh three. It's a long one, Mary, so I'm going to read part of it. Mary says.

I listened to the Travis Scott episode as well as the Bonus episode, although for that one I was more curious about your take on the additional charges for Sean Combs. Anyhow, I wholeheartedly agree with you on your opinion of Travis Scott being completely selfish and greedy. It actually brought back a memory of when I saw Eminem and DC back

in two thousand and two. The crab is becoming out of control and people were likely in danger of being trampled, so he told everybody to stop, and if they didn't, he was leaving the stage. Now I read that part of Mary's text because Eminem, before this is all said and done, now listen to you guys who are super disgrace sandheads. You know I have a complicated history with Eminem. Anyways, Eminem, we did an Eminem episode, and I you know how I do that bit at the beginning of every episode

where I'm like, and they made great music, blah blah blah. Well, I said Eminem did not make great music. And I did it in part because I truly felt that way at the time, and also in part because I really wanted to fuck with Eminem's fans, who I know are very precious, and there's nothing I like more than fucking with precious fans of musicians, because everyone really needs to just lighten up a notch. In twenty twenty four or whenever this went live, anyhow, I've since grown into an

Eminem fan, largely because of my kids. I can't believe I went as far as I did when I said that, even it's not entirely because of all the shit I got from everybody, but just came to that realization on my own. But more importantly, I think when this Diddy story is set and on that Eminem is going to be part of this, and not in a bad way.

There's a lot of things that have popped off in the last few years where Eminem has been on the right side of the argument, and this don't take this as a blanket endorsement of everything Eminem has said or done in the past. That's not what this is. I'm just like, the guy raises my eyebrows every now and then. That's all I'm saying. I'm like, huh, I agree with this guy, and he said some very interesting things about

Diddy and guys. You got to know, I want to get into him here, but I could make every single after party episode about Shawn Combs, and I'm trying really hard not to do that. But this is one of those one of those wormholes that I kind of want to dig through a little bit and get more information for you guys. So anyways that you know, the seven or three brought up Mary brought up the Travis Scott thing with Eminem, and I thought that was a good

way for me to connect the two. Let's do another text here, this one from the three to ZHO four, also on the subject of Diddy. Three oh four rights, I want to disgrace san T shirt that says that's a lot of fucking baby oil. That's not a bad idea. That's not a bad idea. Eight five six Rights and listening to your after party and your response to Steven reminded me of a young e mackay. Hey, Steven, well, at least I'm trying. What the fuck have you done?

That's Mark from the eight five six. He's referencing a Minor Threat lyric from the song in My Eyes, and I feel like I lost some punk rock credibility because when I said that last week's episode to Stephen, I should have known I was paraphrasing Ia mackay from Minor Threat and in my Eyes I was literally roommates with the guys in the band in my Eyes back in the day. I should have got that one. Fuck. I'm sorry, Mark.

Good catch though eight to eight Rights and the Crow has been my favorite movie since I've seen it in theaters while a senior in high school. For the question of the week, of course, i'd say Brandon Lee. You can see the range in the few actual scenes he is in in the Crow, and Heath Ledger comes to mind. You're right, and they're both similar to me. They both occupy the same sort of space in my head. Good text, eight to eight, I appreciate it. Do one more here,

one more? In the text from the nine to one six, it comes from Brook who writes saying, Hey, Jake, just wanted to let you know I've been listening to Keith Jarrett The Rich and the Poor non stop on repeat since you recommend it. It's so good Brooke from the nine to one six Brook. You got it, Brook, I got another one for you, Hank type for one second, let me check this out. This is this other Keith Jarrett album that I've been onto in the last couple

of days. I think I mentioned that The con Concert a couple episodes ago, but there's also this record called Belonging by Keith Jarrett that is also incredible. That one, the Belonging one, is more like what you're hearing on that song The Rich and the Poor con Concert is solo piano. I believe the entire thing, and Belonging is him with the little I think it's a quartet like he has in The Rich and the Poor six one

seven nine oh six six six three eight. Hit me up on voicemail, hit me up on text at Disgrace slampod on the DMS. Our buddy Chris on It writes in via Facebook regarding the Crow soundtrack, which we discuss, of course, in this week's full episode on Brandon Lee. Maybe the best movie soundtrack I've heard. That's a bold statement. Chris appreciate it, though, what else we got here? Teresa Hamley writes in Oh Jesus Christ, I'm about to listen

to this. Holy shit. Ah, Teresa, you talk about one of our episodes, and she writes it, I love this version of After Midnight. You rock, Jake Lowell. I can't sleep without your podcast. You got it, Teresa. We're gonna keep pumping them out so you keep getting those eight hours eight hours a night. Teresa, do you do the eight hours or you do about six or seven? Where are you at? The older I get, the more sleep

I need, I get to say. I don't know what it's like for you guys, but I just it's so important. It's so important for the brain power, the physical stuff I can get through. It's not a drag on me physically so much as it is just on making the brain work in the morning in the way that I needed to work. Okay, let's see Disgrace Lampod at gmail dot com. That's how you email me at Disgrace Lampod. That's how you send me some dms. I'll do emails in a second. We do a couple more dms here.

This one comes from listener Joshua. Matthew Blevin says, Hey, listening to Brandon Lee episode and just a warning, blanks are dangerous at close range. I know more than one actor in the past, thinking blanks were safe, have killed themselves playing around the guns that fire blanks. The firearm

safety rule should always apply when handling any type of firearms. Recently, Airsoft has been making guns that have a fake muzzle flash and smoke, and this is probably gonna make movies with guns a lot safer.

say about it. But it reminded me this Alec Baldwin stories is completely just dropped out of my head, and I think it's an interesting one and I think perhaps it could make for a good episode, And you know, it's obviously connected to this Brandon Lee topic that we're talking about real quick shout out to Justin g Over on Instagram, my buddy who sends me a whole bunch of great content. He's going through a rough time right now with his job. Justin. I hope it turns around

for you. If it doesn't, you know, just listen to some Johnny Paycheck. I'm gonna take a quick break. I'll be back in a flash with some emails and reviews. Okay, dis Gray sand pod at gmail dot com. You guys want to hit me up? Grayson Schmidt writes in Garage lull Man and sends in a video with the correct way to pronounce that word that I can never pronounce correctly.

Guys, leave a review, We really, really really appreciate it. Now for this episode, I try to

steer clear. Oh, I got into the ditty stuff a little bit, but I tried to not turn the B block into an entire piece of ditty content. I'm not sure I succeeded. Like I said, this Diddy stuff is hard to put down, it's hard to ignore. There's a lot here to discuss. Every single one of these bonus episodes. I could spend the whole thing talking about Diddy, but I'm not going to do that. I am not going to do that. I am, however, in the all access portion of this podcast, I am going to talk a

little bit more about ditty. All right, that's gonna happen just after this. You guys, you're like, what's the all access Well, if you don't know, you should know. You should know by now, but maybe you're new when you don't know. If you want to be an all access member of Disgrace Sland, all you got to do is go to Disgrace slampod dot com slash membership, and once you're a member, you get all of our episodes ad free, and you also get access to the bonus section of

the after party episode here. Okay, that's coming up very shortly. Disgrace sampod dot Com slash Membership. All right, guys, we are back. I want to get into the archive here. A little bit before I take off, we talked about Nipsey Hustle. Okay. That episode is episode number fifty seven, release date May twelfth, twenty twenty. Lisa Lefti Lopez was mentioned that episode. OG episode from season one, episode six,

release date April seventeenth, twenty eighteen. If you can believe that, Bob Marley was also part of season one, Bob Marley was also mentioned in this episode. Bob Marley was episode nine. Okay, came out a couple weeks after Lisa left I Lopez. That's released date May twenty ninth, two thousand and eighteen. Okay, now, back in season one, we did a single episode on Tupac and Biggie and my take on that episode, it's

one of my least favorite episodes. But I invite you to listen to it, because the take my point of view on that episode I think is original. I just think the execution of that episode it's just never I could you know, it's fuck You know, when you make something you're just like, I can't fucking get it right. That's what it was with that episode. Episode ten released day June twelfth, twenty eighteen. And my point was that

the media did it. That the media really just stoked the whole East Coast West Coast rivalry to such a fever pitch that it resulted in murder. And I'm not so sure I believe that anymore. Okay. I was actually thinking the other day in light of this whole Diddy thing, and in light of the fact that there's this rumor that Tupac's family have retained new legal representation to look into Sean Combs related to the murder of Tupac, I started to think of about what what do I actually

think about Tupac's murder? What do I actually think about Biggie's murder? And after doing that episode that I just mentioned, after writing and releasing another two part episode on Tupac Secure, episode sixty nine, released on January twenty six, twenty twenty one, and episode seventy released on February second, twenty twenty one. After those two episodes, I still don't know. And then we did two episodes on Biggie Smalls, and those episodes

are from that same season, that same year. I believe that's season eight. Those are released on Those are episodes eighty and eighty one, released May eleventh and May twenty fifth, respectively, a two part Biggie Smalls episode. I have a bit of a theory, but I'm not so sure I believe it anymore. And the person who I have sort of theorized hunched who may have been involved, I don't actually

know that I believe that anymore. I really don't, and I'd love to talk to that person, and that person is not that hard to get to, so I'm thinking I might try to do that in relation to this Diddy story as well. I am going to go back and I'm going to listen to all those Tupac and Biggie episodes that I just mentioned, because I really got to get my thinking right on this. I think the truth. I think we're all just we're way off. We're way off.

I could be wrong, but that's my current thinking. Anyways, all those episodes are there for you to check out. We mentioned a ton in this episode here. The archive easy to get to obviously. You know you're on Apple Podcasting, you're on Spotify. The archives right there, keep scrolling back. A real easy way to get to these episodes, though, is our website. We have a listen page where we literally have every single episode that we've ever released with

links where you can listen right there. So go check that out if you want to get into the disgrace Land archive. All right, all right, I just want to say thank you for all the calls, all the voicemails, the reviews, the dms, all the engagement, the listening. Even if you just out there listening silently, you never talk to me, and that's the majority of you. Frankly, thank you.

I appreciate it, I really do. I got to get out of here, though, So let's recap number one right now in your feed our episode on Brandon Lee number two coming tomorrow, a special rewind episode from our archive, and we're talking about the Cramps next week and the question of the week as it pertains that Cramps episode is going to be which rock and roll band is the greatest of all time and why okay?
