Nirvana Top 5. Big in the 80s. Drink your milk?

Boom boom boom. Okay, we're rolling. We are, we're doing this. Let's go to eight podcasts in a row. We'll stop. That's Jason Ginty. I'm Ron Ryan. This is the Playpants Podcast episode. At ninety eight. Were coming up on a big year for Nirvana. They released their final album in Utero Part Shape Box All Apologies, thirty years ago. Jason, Wait, hit me with that number again. Wait, I don't believe

that could be true. Nineteen ninety three was thirty years ago. So we're on the anniversary of the last studio release from Nirvana, and we've never done a Nirvana top five on this list. We've almost done one hundred podcasts, We've mentioned Nirvana six gazillion times, but never did a Nirvana top five. I think we're due, you know. When you said it over, I'm like, you're like, well, let's do it, Nirvana top five. I'm like, uh, come on now, dude, we must have done

that out of the gate. And then I look back and I'm like, oh my god, the two dipshits who really have nirvanted to think for where we are today in some ways never did. It was tough. We're talking about them a lot. I mean in a roundabout way. I imagine we probably have done. If you piece together ninety eight different podcasts, you could probably piece together our top fives. But we've never really kind of done it in one discussion. So I think we're overdue on that. I brought in

an article which I think is really cool. This is taken straight from Loudwire, and I want to do a little thing with you and see if they got it right. And we're just gonna focus on the eighties. I know that's even longer ago. That's dude, forty years ago. We're going back forty years now. Okay, we're gonna go to the eighties. So what they did is they picked the artist that was the biggest artist of that year. It's the artist that everyone was talking about the year. Because sometimes when

an artist came out, let's talk about Nirvana. You know, when Bleach came out, nobody was talking about Nirvana. So the year that Bleach comes out, you don't give Nirvana that year just because they were the biggest band probably to come out of it. But the year that it came out, no one was talking about Nirvana, so they will not be mentioned on the year that Bleach comes out, they'll get a mention on the year, but they won't be the biggest act. You'll see how it goes. It's actually

pretty interesting, so I'm looking forward to getting into that. And then I just wanted to say that football is kind of awesome again. I know last week I was pretty down on football, but the Bills came back with a win and things are going well for the Saints. Yeah. Yeah, No, it's cool. It's you know, it's like there's a lot of other games I'm kind of like keying in on. And We've talked about this before.

There's just a lot of cool storylines around the league that, you know, two weeks in you're like, okay, but I think some shit's gonna shake out here pretty soon. Last week, Rod, we did our top

five favorite videos yeah of all time, which you know what. After we did it, I was like, yeah, mine suck because then I started digging looking at other people's I'm like, ah see, this is what's fun about this is because in the moment I thought those were my favorite, but now I'm like looking at some of these, like our our good friend Francis, God, damn, Francis is so good. At this. You know what, he kills us every time, Like I'm like, fuck, his

are way better than mind. Every time I go some of a bitch man. His top videos coachis from Audio Slave. Think about when that song came out, that first song come out, and it was a punch in the face and the video was a perfect companion. Think about this, Okay, Chris Cornell is in rehab the day they shoot that video. Chris Cornell gets picked up in a car from rehab. Whatever he's wearing that day, that's what he shows up in at the video. So think about how that video

plays out. And Francis, you nailed it. And I don't know why I didn't talk about this because it's one of my all time favorite videos ever. The fireworks and everything. Chris Cornell shows up in the video and he's up on the platform already. He doesn't have a band, does he. It's just Chris Cornell. You got rage against the machine. They don't have a singer. They come in that fucking truck and there's three guys right up the elevator. It's three guys. They need a singer. So they go

up on the roof. There's Chris. They start jamming. But true story, Chris was in rehab. So look how cool he looks in that video. That's just what he was wearing that day. Okay, they maybe did a little bit of hair, a little bit of makeup, but that's it. There was no he didn't talk to the guys. They just said be here at this time and we're going to do this, and that was it. He shows up and they make one of the great videos of all time

and completely unscripted. At the end of the video when it's over with the band members come together and they all hug, completely not script it at all. It's like, fuck, yeah we found our singer and yeah I found my band. So great. Damn that video is great. I mean, you know, that's what just goes to show you that, you know, being cool is just that's it's it's you can't fake it. He's just he was just fucking cool. Oh I just got cool. I could have been

in wardrobe for a month and I wouldn't look that cool. Okay, he doesn't even have a wardrobe. He just shows up in the clothes he's wearing it rehab that day and films one of the greatest videos ever. So Francis, You're the best coat cheese audio slave. It's it's an incredible video. Yeah, that was his number one Charles Taylor Honorable mention Maroon five Sugar. I don't know if I've seen that one. I don't remember that zz Top

legs. Yeah, okay, I'll give him that one. Remember that was we talked about the zz top throwing the key in the big fancy car. Queen's right, silent lucidity. I thought that was interesting. I'm trying to remember the video now. It wasn't here lacking away, kind of sensitive, shadowy, shadowy, It's kadowee. Yeah, think think Police every breath you take, that kind of look. Yeah, okay, yeah, I get that one. I just never got into Queen's reich. I just I can't

get into them for some reason. There's certain things I kind of am okay with, but yeah, I don't know something about it. You know, years ago after Queen's were I busted up or whatever they were doing, Jeff Tate, the singer went out on a solo thing, did a solo album, and they and this is this is where you know, once in a while you take a liberty in radio, you know, you do one for you because you have the keys to the candy store, you can go and

eat the candy sometimes, you know what I mean. So I get a phone call and I'm programming some shitty little station. It was like an alternative rock talk thing back in the day. And I get a caller like and it's and it's Jeff tats people and they're like, hey, Jeff is in town in a in a week, you know, we want to do an interview. Maybe he'll do an acoustic song. And I'm sitting there going it's Jeff fucking Tait. Okay, this this dude arguably one of the better voices

ever, and you can put him in the top. Great voice in the top, you know. And I'm like, and I was like, I don't ever want to play a song on the air. I don't ever want to really talk and put an interview on the air. But if I get to meet and hang out with Jeff Tate for ten minutes and maybe he'll sing a song, yeah, come on in, guys. I'm cool. So I did the old this ones for me. So Jeff take comes in right, and he's just a fucking rock so he's he's super nice, totally cool.

Of course he wants you to play his new solo album that nobody was playing. And he's like, hey, man, I brought I got a guy with me playing acoustic guitar because you want to do a song. And I go, you know, in my programming, you might not going absolutely not, no way, never the million years when I do this, and I go, yeah, let's do it on the air. On the air. So we go to commercial break, we come back, all right,

here's Jeff Tate with whatever the song was. And you know, I got the guy was playing the acoustic with the mic and he's just playing the acoustic guitar. Jeff Tate, you know normally, and you've done this in the past where you've got the bay and so during commercial break you kind of do a little quick soundcheck and everybody like, okay, where's your microphone? Gonna be kind of get a level. He runs through part of the song. You're good. Then when you alive, you'll look like an asshole or try

not to. So Jeff Tape is got the microphone that he's been speaking in right by his face, like you would like we do right now, Okay. As he goes to sing, he takes two steps backward in the studio. He is literally two arm lengths away from the microphone and I'm looking at him, going, bro, where the fuck are you going? And then he starts singing. He's so fucking loud and powerful. Dude. Oh yeah, it's an operatic. I mean it's it's theatrical. I'd never heard the

song before. In the fucking hair on, my arms are just lifting off, and I'm just like and he's just fucking It's me, him and the guitar player and probably nobody listening, and I'm like, dude, it was so badass. So I have a appreciation for Queen Drink because of that moment. And it was literally he's two arm lengths back from the microphone in just fucking blowing hair back. I mean, it was great. It was such a performance to do that. So yeah, Yeah, the guys that have

those voices, they know they need to back off. I'm like, they need because they know they're gonna they're gonna wail. He could have been down the hall and still made it. I mean it was great. So yeah, and we got another one here from let's see here from Immortal Warrior. This you're getting this off of our YouTube page. So this is from last week's podcast, episode ninety seven. We were talking about our top five favorite music videos, and we just want to let you guys know we do look

at our YouTube page to see your comments. Yeah, I'm looking right now. No, I'm kidding. We do look Mega Death Crush Him. I don't remember that one, but I will go back and look at it. Mag That's made some pretty cool videos, man, eminem Stan, I don't know why we didn't mention that one. That was pretty good. That's awesome. And then Charles Taylor had, okay, go uh this two shall pass

uh corn freak on a leash. A dude, we didn't even you know, we kind of bombed on this a little bit because you two where the Streets have No Name? You two made some pretty fucking for the time badass videos. They where the streets who have no Name? Is a great one? Is the one why the rif top? No? Well, I forget which one that one was to set. They're like, what Vegas? Yeah? All that ship? So anyway, yeah, I'm not supposed to by the way inside inside information, right, I don't know if you even know

this. I don't have the radio Wizard talked to you about this in Houston, but uh, there's gonna be a new You two song next week. Well they played it on Fremont Street, all right, yeah yeah, so uh just they're gonna drop it next next next week. So you know, hope it's good. I even said, please be good. I heard it. Oh is it any good? Or is it? Well? I heard the live version that's out there, the videos out there. I mean there

was so much guerrilla footage out there. They did it right on Fremont Street. I don't know if it's called Atomic City or something, but it's a song about Las Vegas because they're doing the Las Vegas Residency and that's spear uh in the Sphere. Yeah, and I want to go. I do want to go to that. I don't want to go. I don't want to go the first day. I don't want to go the first week. I want them to work the kinks out and stuff. But if you don't know,

it's it looks like this big, huge globe. It looks like the like a planet. It's the place is completely round. It's called the Sphere and it's just going to be for awards shows and shows like You Two's residency. It's just another you know, huge room for people to play. But man, it looks so badass. It looks unbelievable. They got you can like kind of there's like cams you can look and and like one minutes a happy face. Next thing is like the globe. It's it's pretty spectacular.

So so thanks for the comments on a YouTube channel. I love it. I love it because now I've got like six videos I got to watch this weekend that were great, and there's so many good ones that we skipped. I mean we mentioned the Lincoln Park and all the tool videos. I mean, there's just so many of them. Rod Quick, quick thing I want to throw at you if and I think you've probably you've probably covered this on your morning show. But if if they start charging for Twitter, I mean,

I'm out, I'm punching out. I'm out. I'm done. I don't give it fuck. If they start charging for Facebook, they start charging for Instagram, I'm out. Yeah, I don't. I don't think Zuckerberg will do that. And that's why he's got Threads just ready to go. Like nobody's on Threads. You know, there's a decent amount, but not a lot. Yeah. Well because it just kind of automatically carried over and it's like you kind of have it, but nobody's using it. Nobody's out

there doing anything with it. But he has it there, it's ready to go. If you have Instagram, there's a good chance you got threads or it's just sitting there waiting for you to activate it. You just gotta punch in. Yeah. If he does, in fact charge for Twitter slash x, Threads is just ready to roll. I mean, that's the only reason why he did it. Just no, I will not pay for X. I just I just won't, not even for work. It's just I don't

need it. I need Facebook, I do. I know it's like where Grandma is, but believe it or not, most of my referrals, my bounce back from social media to the blog page is from Facebook. It's not even nothing else even comes close. So Facebook is what I would keep, And then that's obviously packaged in the meta universe with you know, Instagram and Threads. You know, I wouldn't pay for TikTok. I wouldn't pay for any of them. Well, the one I probably wouldn't give a couple of

bucks to and don't tell them but shit is probably Facebook. But I don't think he'll ever charge for it. They're making money, They've got ads, they've got revenue coming in. Elon Musk is throwing this up there as a hail Mary. Yeah, he's just throwing it. Will not pay, No, No, I don't think so. I don't even pay for the verification badger. We used to be verified. I'm not I'm just not paying. It's just not interesting. I'm not interested at all. No, No,

it would be kind of nice. And then like if they start charging, you think, like you know all these corporations, all these people that use it to advertise, and all the influencers and shit, it's like, I don't care. This actually saves me a lot of work. At the end of the day, I don't have to use it anymore. Got it nice? Got a really good email, And I want to thank Jimmy. He's listening to all of our podcasts. He's like, man, I was so

pumped to listen to you and Jason your top five grunge songs. Give them all your knowledge in the radio industry. He gave me his top five. He said it was absolutely brutal. Uh, Nirvana, Come as you are was one Screaming Trees, Nearly Lost You, Pumpkin zero stp plush Bush, Little Things. He said he's working on Mark Lanigan's book right now. So Jeff from the podcast right that's the Screaming Trees singer who is now deceased.

And then he's moving over to another book. I recommended Kitchen Confidential. Wait, keep rocketing the pod. Thank you for y'all's time and efforts. This guy's like taking advice from the podcast. And then his third book is gonna be Color Me Good. Harry. Oh yeah, Harry Styles Coloring Book. That'll be the third one. There's a lot of you know what, we're better than Oprah right here. We got Oprah's got our little club, we've

got the we've got the Playpants Podcast book Club. Actually, you know what, probably wouldn't be a bad idea, obviously, Harry Styles is the best book that we've ever recommended. You know, he's got one coming out in October. He's got a real book coming on in October. I'm just just a tease again, Rod, I'm I'm in the no now I know stuff. So we'll get to that. Are you digging into this new Queens of the stone Age at all. We're playing the single that's out right now,

Paper Machetti. I like it. I like it. I don't love it. I like it. We just announced they're coming. Are they coming to New Orleans? Coming here? We just announced. Yeah. I haven't listened to the new album yet, but just because they're coming, i'd been listening to a little Queens at the stone Age. I'm just I'm so hot and

cold on them. I can get rid of I can literally get rid of half the songs on every album, and I can take a ten track album and I can tell you that like five of them, I just I don't want to hear, but five of them are really really good. It's so weird how I'm hot and cold on that band. So I can't wait to listen to the new one. We're recording this On Wednesday, September twenty one, Friday, Stains album comes out the two Stained songs. Did you watch the video? Yeah, you know, I was. I got a little

bit excited last week apparently or something. I don't know, too much cocaine off the computer screen or something. I don't know what happened, but I said I would do like one of those reaction videos. Yeah, I was waiting for it. Yeah, I'm telling you right now. Of all, I didn't know how to do one of those, so I had to go research how to do one. I realized that terrible. That's a lot of

fucking work. Uh. And then I'm like all right, and I'm like, well, I could do it, And then I just got sidetracked to another shit. So I'm like, well, fuck, I better at least watch the damn video anyway, and just so I can have something to talk about in case you bring it up, which you did. Then I watched a video and I'm like, yeah, I'm glad I didn't do a reaction video on that. It hits a little too close to home for me. It's a brutal it's dude, fucking wow. I'll be honest with you.

I was surprised that you said you were going to do this. I said, do you know about this video? What's going on in the content of this video? Yeah, but you said you were going to do it. I said, I will have a fucking front row seat if he's gonna pull this off, because that video is really emotional and it deals with you know, it's a father and it's a son and the father's dealing with Alzheimer's,

and it's it's it's it's a tough one. Man. I can't believe how many people have emailed me, either you know, thanking me or odd you bastard for making me. I didn't make anybody do anything. I just warned everybody that it's you're gonna get hit hard in the fields. But it's really done well though. It is it's great and you know, uh, you want to have fun though, and I'm telling you it's actually kind of a cool thing. Is that because I started going down that rabbit hole? Of

course? Well then there are a bunch of other reaction videos that are gonna pop up in your algorithm on your YouTube channel, and there's all these like big meaty dudes, like beards and like tough looking dudes, and they're just like all they're like, I can't believe this fucking songs making me cry, man, Like, so we could be getting millions of hits right now, is what you're telling me? Yeah? Yeah, yeah, all the all the big dudes, all the all the elphas are crying and they're like like

you fuck this guy, you know what I mean? But so then I went and I was like, Okay, the video is giving me a reaction, so that that's almost unfair way to judge just the song. So I went back and listen to the song straight up, and I'm like, damn, this is a good song. It's a good song. I was staying, they've got a sound. They don't go too far from where they're at. They know what works for them. Man, those are two great stains. They're great staining songs, and it's it's the way you do it.

The first one was heavy, second one softer one. And there's two other songs that are floating around out there that are supposed to be great. But Radio Wizards said there's five hits on this album. So I'm looking forward to it. New Blink one eighty two tomorrow, nine o'clock our time, nine o'clock am. We're playing it. You're playing it at nine. You're gonna get it right. Well, we got a different morning show, so I can't play until time we're gonna play. You know, we're doing old school.

You know, back in the day you see dor top every hour. You know, world premiere, which is bullshit because everybody's playing it. But you know, you gotta take credit when you're in radio in your market. So yeah, we'll be banging at top of every hour all day tomorrow because the song is good. The song is good. I want to I want to get your thoughts after you listen to it. It's about the lyrics. Pay attention to the damn lyrics because I know you don't. I don't,

but they do. Blink did a good job of setting it up on there you are on their Instagram page. If you look at maybe their last post, it talks about the song and how they all came together. You know, Travis goes all the way back or to you know, getting in the plane crash and you know how they didn't want to do music and the cancer and everything. So uh yeah, this is gonna be another one that's gonna

be pretty emotional. And they use the hook. You can hear the hook of the song playing in the video, so it's like a teaser and you can tell it's a smash already. You said it was going to be great. It just from the little clip I heard on Instagram reels, you can tell you know it's going to be a smash. So great time for music right now. It's a great time for music right now for what we do, you know. I mean, we don't always We're not always like the

shiny, new cool thing. And I feel like we're feeling I'm feeling pretty shiny right now. In alternative rock, yeah, I think you know again. And alternative rock and alternative radio really has a split. You know. There's the there's the cool kids out in LA the West coast, East coast. You're gonna play all the new shit, you know. I mean, there's a there's a guy who went to number one on the alternative rock charts. I forgot his name is, and how much I cared. I didn't

play the song. I don't think you guys did either, and if you did, it was very little. Declan McKennon or something like that as his name, I don't know whatever. It's kind of a slow song, and but it's very pop. There's a lot of pop, and there's a split happening. And I think we've talked about this before on the podcast. In the alternative world, where there's stations that are going a little more rock, like you and Houston and Saint Louis and US in New Orleans, and there's

a few others kind of going in that direction. And then there's like the pop guys and for your city, if it's working, good for you. But I'm more of the let's play the stains. Let's play that, because I know New Orleans is about that shit, man, and I know Houston is obviously. So yeah, you've got You've got the Blink coming out, which, by the way, I don't think people understand what an incredible producer. Travis Barker, the drummer is produced the whole album, So it's gonna

have maybe a little different sound, you know what I mean. And it's gonna like he did all seventeen tracks, which is new and uh he sings a little bit on this song, just saying And then you've got to keep in mind too, we're gonna get some Pearl Jam at some point. We're gonna get Green Day at some point. There's a song coming out from Mike Shinoda that is fucking great coming out soon. I mean, we got a lot of shit coming our way, dude. There's a lot of good shit

there really is. You know, there's and you and then you know there's always gonna be something on the left field. There's gonna be some weird shit. You're going, what the fuck is this? It happens every wonder Bush will put something out to go along with their Greatest Hits album sometimes, you know how bands will throw in like a like a banger, and so people talking about it. So maybe something from Bush, you know, maybe it's not just the greatest Hits, right extra song? Yeah, So again,

I'm just it's a it's a good time for our format. We kind of get left, at least with my company. You know, all they care about is fucking Taylor Swift. So it's it's good and it helps that we're doing as well as we are. I know, your ratings are on the rise over there in New Orleans. So all this new music and good new music, it's it's only gonna help. Yeah, it's good ship, dude. So I found an article that came out this week and it was from

Loudwire, and I don't go to that website quite as often. I probably go to Blabbermouth a little more, but this one really kind of caught my eye. And what they did is they dissected each year of the eighties and they determined what was the biggest name of that year, what was everybody talking about, and they kept it in like the rock metal space, you know, and there's going to be some stuff that's a little pop leaning, but still I thought they did a really really good job. So we're gonna start

with nineteen eighty Loverboys self titled debut comes out. It's the Turned Me Loose. I was on that. I did like that song. I still like the Kid is Hot Tonight is on that first one. I think the Romantics dropped two albums in nineteen eighty. I love the Romantics. I've got probably six Romantics albums on vinyl. I love them. So they dropped two albums

in nineteen eighty. That was what we heard. What I Like about You, Donnie Iris is Aliyah Dead Kennedy's come out in nineteen eighty, Joan Jet, nineteen eighty, diamond Head which Metallica were huge fans My Evil, Brian Adams in excess Billy Squire, Huey Lewis and the News Psychedelic Furs now Brian Adams in excess Billy Squire. They kind of snuck in on that nineteen eighty

where they weren't huge that year. They gave the year to Ozzy Osbourne, that was the biggest thing of the year they got that year, right, because what's what's what's out that year? It's Lizzard of Oz Blizzard right, Yeah, Okay, yeah, well this debut, these are all debuts, So that means it's not you can't have been around for a couple of years and just had a great year that year. It's your your debut year. Who had the biggest debut year? Who had the biggest debut in that year?

So everything that I mentioned came out their first albums in excess. First album Brian Adams first album nineteen eighty nothing was bigger than Ozzy Osbourne. Nice, he was everywhere, ruled the airways, multiple hits on that album, yeah, the whole thing. Okay, Yeah, I go with Ozzy on that one totally. Okay. Nineteen eighty one I was ten men at work. They won the Grammy and they won Best New Artists and then a couple of singles. It wasn't just who can have been to Me? Now?

Down Under? Be good Johnny Stevie Nicks goes solo in nineteen eighty one. Phil Collins goes solo in eighty one. Do Do Do Do Do Do Do Do Do Thank You in the Air Tonight nineteen eighty one. So everybody knew him from Genesis, but he gets in on the list because he's solo, breaking through as a solo artist. Did you hear Monday Night Football? Two things about that? First of all, why the fuck do we even do it anymore? That was that shit? That? What was the check?

That was doing it there for a couple of years, the country Check, the Blonde, she's still doing it. Don't even dude, if you're if you're gonna start capping on Carrie Underwood, Dude, I'm gonna shut this podcast down. I'm like shutting it down. It's shutting it down. It's so shudder filled. She's hot. I love it, But this dumb night football? Fuck oh Sunday Night Okay, whatever, it's dumb. I hate it, but this was good Monday Night football. Chris Stapleton fucking great Snoop dog

Listen. I know everybody loves Snoop Dogg, and I know what they why they did what they did. But he's not needed on the track. Okay, you could have just been Chris Stapleton and it would have been fine. But the drummer, do do do do do? Do do. That's Lenny craw it's his drummer. I thought, so. I was like, wait, but that's Kravis his drummer right there, and she's a badass now that. I thought that was cool as shit, man, I thought that was

pretty neat. It's pretty and again Chris Stapleton now doing the national anthem. Last year they were doing white Horse week one. In and out of breaks they were playing our song, my song, and then he just did the Monday night football song. Is there any question who's doing the fucking Super Bowl halftime show this year? Is there any question? Jason? You know question.

I don't have questions about that. I have a lot of other questions, but it has to be I would say it's him because then he can bust out, you know, Jelly Roll can show up for a song, and like they could do the cool country thing because country is really hot right now and there's a lot of crossover on a lot of different genres with the country, so you know, I think that would be the home run. I don't love it. I helped he says fuck you to everybody and just

does it himself. I'm telling you, I'm on board. I am fan number one right now. I can live with that. So Phil Collins comes out with his solo well, Go Goes, Stray Cats, Motley Crewe don't forget. Motley Crew comes out right in eighteen eighty one, but didn't nobody knew. Nobody knew right, nobody knew eighty one Moley Crew, come on, you were Rhythmics, bad religion, dock in minor threat, bad brains. If you're in the punk space Anvil kicks Raven about that album Replacements,

who got nineteen eighty one Billie Idol? He had the most heat. He had the most heat. Obviously with money money, you gotta covered, you're gonna do alright, And yeah, that makes it. I mean, I would say the Go Goes. They had a couple of hits that in eighties, so that that's a tough one. I'm Phil Collins was huge, But did he hit? Did all that hit in eighty he made have released it in eighty or eighty one, but did it hit? You know what I

mean? Like, it's a weird The timing is weird. And then does he not get the same credit because he's already known from Genesis and the same thing with Stevie Nicks she's known from Fleetwood Max. So do they get the same kind of new you know what I mean? Right, I'm fine with Billy Idol. I'm not man. Billy Idol was all over when it finally came around and debuted. Billy Idol was all over the place. But yeah, Billy Idol was talked about. Nineteen eighty two, they gave it to

Asia. I was wearing an Asia T shirt either last week or the week before. Podcast they sell those, dude. Asia was fucking huge. Oh they were massive and they wrote some great fucking songs. Asia was massive. Everybody in the band was great. Heat of the moment. Only time will tell soul survivor all for that first album. So that's nineteen eighty two.

Are they bigger than the Fix flock of Seagulls? Night Ranger, Twisted Sister starts getting some heat, Robert Plant goes solo that year, Misfits Descendants, Rm, nah, they were and beastie boys who weren't really the Beastie boys yet none of those Twisted Sister isn't even twisted history yet, correct, wasn't the big that doesn't stay hungry? So yeah, I would say Asia, I mean that what a weird year for music man Asia in nineteen eighty two,

there was like kind of no competition nineteen eighty three. Metallica, Metallica's first album comes out in nineteen eighty three, but Metallica again is not Metallica. Nobody knows about it, Nobody knows a Metal Blade or whatever album whatever, you know, that's the only that's the Big Four. Slayer also comes out that year. So when you look at like the thrash Big Four, and then Anthrax and Megadeath are coming later on on the list, but Metallica

and Slayer come out in nineteen eighty three. Queens, right, there's your boy, eighty three Kings X from Houston, fast Way, leader Ford, Europe, Suicidal Tendencies. I love the Smith's violent femmes, butthole Surfers, the Hooters, Uh, James, is it Jamestown, New York? Ten thousand maniacs? Yeah, yeah, it's well, yeah, I guess it's Western New York. I don't know if it's Jamestown, but yeah, I Jamison and Jamestown and then Stevie ray Vaughn came out in nineteen eighty three.

Correct, they gave the year to deal you know, I would have to say probably deal because he's got the pedigree of the Sabbath, the Rainbow and Holy Diver. Holy shit, dude, there's so much great shit on there. But then Stevie Raybron's Texas Flood, come on, come on now. But I don't know if Stevie Raybrown was Stevie ray Vaughn in eighty three? Was he that shit hit later? You know? That's the hard problem with this. Did he have the hot heat on him? It was? He?

Was he? And all the magazines was he on TikTok? You know what I mean? Like? Was he? That deal was everywhere? So yeah, I gotta go deal man. They're doing a pretty good job with this thing. Quick question. Yeah, I've always been a fair weather fan of King X. You know, I like some of their ship. Why did they they They're one of those bands that kind of got caught in the wash somewhere and they never kind of had that hit that broke them through to

like bigger, you know what I mean? Like that, that's one of those weird bands that you just see that they're doing fine. They're doing they're living, they're making great music, but they never could get across the hump. You know, all musicians love Kings X. Correct, All musicians absolutely think that they're the ship. The players in the band, all three of them were unbelievable. Doug on bass and the singer. I mean, he was a fucking great singer. When I first moved here, he reached out

to me, he said he was listening to the show. He was working out and stuff. So they were still living here. But yeah, Doug Pinnock, Yeah, the guitar, the drums, they were all fucking virtuosos at their instruments. They wrote amazing songs. They just didn't write three and a half minute verse chorus, verse songs. Didn't write Yeah, but musicians love Kings X Yep. Yeah, they're a Bison's band. Yeah. It's just one of those ones that you're like, a man, what happened?

Why didn't that not click? But I'm sure they don't give a shit. I guess anyway, what was the eighty three? Now we're on eighty four. I already know the answer of this one, so yeah, you can go ahead. I'm telling you, I don't know if they got this one right. WHOA So here's who this is? Who they didn't give it to

Anthrax debuts. Nobody knew. So now you got three of the Big four Autograph, Turn up the Radio, Massive, Massive, Yeah, to Hell with the Devil, Remember Striper, Striper, Christian Metal, Wasp comes out. I Love Wasp, Great White, the movie, Spinal Tap, Honeymoon, Sweet Canada, What Up? Soul Asylum, Red Hot, Chili Peppers come out, but we know this. Nobody knew anything about them in their first in the first three four albums, the Pogues come out while they give

the year to Rat and don't give it to bon Jovi. Bon Jovi came out of the gate pretty Hot, which She's a little runaway. That song was, Yeah, but Rat, Come on, you couldn't turn on any video program or MTV without seeing round and Round Milton Rat, Round and Round. Yeah, Milton Burl right is in the video. Yeah that was.

That was in Massive, Heavy, Rat. That song was. I grew to not like it after, like the video, I was like, all right, even when I was in you know whatever eighty four was, Yeah, No, I the bon Jovi, I get, but Rat was just everywhere that year everywhere. Yeah, Rat was. I'll tell you what Rat. The problem with Rat is kids is they're fucking so dysfunctional. Okay, like the band themselves. If they would have stayed together, okay, hear

me out, if they wouldn't have been dipshits. And when you're in a band and you're young, you're stupid, you're a bunch of assholes, and then somebody starts whining about shit, and you think it's a big deal, and then you realize when you get older, God damn, it's not a big deal. If Rat would have held it together, we would have Rat right there with Motley Crue. Still not in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, but Rats Rat's productivity. Go look at their albums, go song

for song, look at what the crew did. Rats right there. But they don't. They're not in that discussion because they're not number one, they're not as famous, and they just broke up so often and they just couldn't keep it together. And for the most part, except for recently, Motley Cruz stayed with the same four guys with all the bullshit they had. For god's sakes, their lead singer killed somebody. They kept them in the band,

you know. I mean, of course, they brought in John Karabi, but for the most part the core four were there and Rat just couldn't hold it together. We would view Rat as a little bit higher up and they would be right at par with Motley Crue. Yeah, because they're there. They kind of get they they could be at Molly Crue, but they're kind of lumped in with the hair, you know what I mean, Like from a there's a cheese factor. Because of all this bullshit they did,

they needed a man. They needed Doc McGee, the manager. They didn't have the manager to hold together because he held that Molly Crue owes that dude a lot. They were idiots. Okay, now eighty four Okay, when you talked about, well, maybe we shouldn't look at you know, Phil Collins, and maybe we shouldn't look at Stevie Nicks because they're so well known for their other bands. I don't care. It's nineteen eighty five, the

biggest debut and the biggest debut that people were talking about. David Lee Roth ended discussion. It's over doesn't matter because that was so huge. He does Beach Boys, and he does he does two cover songs in the videos. Were they those videos made Rats overplay look stupid? Like Roth was on your TV constantly, But it wouldn't work because I don't know what kind of airplay that got. I couldn't tell you. I know California Girls did, but

I don't know if just the jiggalo got played on the radio. Videos, but the videos were played non stop, and it just he would not have been the biggest artist of that year had MTV not launched yet. It was just the reason he was so huge was just based on the videos. Those songs are ridiculous, but the videos are so fucking great. They're so great of the time. I mean they look dated now. If you're young piss pot listed into this podcast and you go back and you're like, oh,

man, don't tell me those videos are great. They were great. They were great. Yeah, yeah, No, And who else who's on the list five? Well, we finally get the we close out the big four Thrash Megadeth debuts White Lion, The Firm Okay remember the Firm Radio Act? Yeah, Paul Rodgers on vocals, Jimmy Page, Tony Franklin on the fart base. Uh power Station is another supergroup with Robert Palmer. That's the Fat Albert theme. It's also radioactive and what's happening. Remember that one rog no

that was we gotta do a top five TV theme songs. I think cool Karen. I think she suggested that, yes, we should do that as great. I already know the one that's gonna be number one. So so supergroups, Yeah, you had the Firm came out that year. You had Power Station with Robert Palmer, had the Duran Duran Brothers, the Tailors, right, and then you had Tony Thompson on the drums. You had Mike and the Mechanics, which I think was kind of a supergroup. Yeah,

that year it was Genesis, right. Yeah, and then and I forgot where that singer was from. The outfield comes out, and then alternative. You start getting college radio. You start to get some names that you heard of before. Drama, Rama Jesus and Mary Chane, Love and Rockets, Sisters of Mercy who I loved, Dead Milkmen. There was some college music is now starting to become a little bit more well known, right. So, but it's the early, early, early undertones of you know what we're

gonna eventually call alternative. Go back to nineteen eighty five, eighty four, eighty five, So yeah, I mean the biggest thing in nineteen eighty five was David Lee Roth all right, let me move this along. This is one. Yeah, they're right. I just don't agree with it because I just have such a dista the band Poison. I cannot stand them there of the time. It's what was happening. Even when it was happening, I thought it was goofy shit. I really did, man, I never ever

was on board with anything they did. Talk Dirty to Me the dumbest song ever written. It's the worst piece of shit ever. If I could, I would give the year to Cinderella, who I think is a rock blues band. I do. I think they're rock blues band. But nineteen eighty six goes to Poison and they were the biggest thing. Talk Dirty to Me was absolutely huge. Cinderella Tesla comes out that year. Yea, they immediately

yea. I love them. I remember I hear them the first time they got played on MTV, and I remember, holy shit, man, this is really really good. Smith Reens come out, Concrete Blonde, here we go, some more Collegy stuff. Matthew Sweet Screaming Trees come out that year. Nothing else. Georgia's satellites. Can't you for yourself one dopey song. Yeah, so you gotta give nineteen eighty six kind of shitty year. You

gotta give that to Poison. But I'll remember. I remember going out and for whatever reason, I must have liked one of the songs on the album. I went out and bought the cassette. Yeah, I went and bought the cassette, dude. And I'm like, okay, because I heard the songs of the racelet I bought the cassette. I'm like, all right, Poison, I'm cool, man. I bought a cassette that everyone's got on

the radio, all right. And I get I buy the thing and I'm looking at the cover and I'm like, chicks, Well, they don't sound like girls. Like I'm so dumb and naive, man, I don't know shit. I'm like, I'm like, well, god wall action dude. Yeah, And I'm like a action tonight. So I'm in my youthfulness looking at it, going I'm like, well, that one's kind of that. That chick's kind of hot. And then I kind of do some digg and I'm like, oh those are dudes. Yeah, dude. That kind of

rocked my world a little. In eighty six, I was. I was a young buck at the time and still trying to figure things out in life, and I was like, oh, makeup, got it? Okay? Freaking me my best Jason Ginty voice? Did you cry tough when you listen to it? Sorry? You know, I really just wanted action, bro, I just wanted action. Nineteen eighty seven, do we have didn't have to go through this? I mean, guns an Roses, guns hits done. They don't get immediately though, it doesn't TV. It's not until MTV

starts playing Welcome to the Jungle, But it's still in that year. They owned in nineteen eighty seven. Yeah, I mean, and then they owned eighty eight and eighty nine. But they but they were the biggest thing that when they came out. They were the biggest thing once MTV picked up the video go go down the list, what's kind of bubble and alternative? Why was there anything in that year, because that's that's where things start. That's

when rim starts heating up a little bit. There's other things happened. They weren't new at that time because they were back a few years before. But well, I mean, we know from listening to this show Soundgarden also debuts that year. Nobody know, nobody knows, but Jane's Addiction comes out that year, but it's that weird live album then again, you know, and where they do the Stones cover and you know, I went back and retroactively bought that album, but I didn't know it. I didn't know. I

didn't know Jane's Addiction until you know there because technically it's their debut. So that's why they're lumped in the eighty seven. The only thing that would really I mean, Lou Graham I think has a solo record. I know, you don't like these guys wants to come out of big bands except for DLR. But he did have a pretty big solo career. Lou Graham was kind of a big deal. Richard Mark's debuts that year. That's true. Yeah, he Richard Marks had a couple of years. He had some hits.

Man, he was everyone kind of like the Billy's Squire of pop rock fair because Billy Squire was rock, coppy, lead rock, but Richard Marks was pop. You know, yeah, but not today's pop. It would be more pop on okay, So he debuts should have known better. Don't mean nothing but a ship year from music outside of Guns and Roses, Robbie Robertson, he was in a pretty big band. He goes solo and then again with But with the College thing nineteen eighty seven, we're not calling it alternative.

We're not doing any of that. We're not in college yet. I'm still in high school. But here's what's bubbling under. Sound Garden comes out, Pixies come out, Jane's addiction, Henry rollins, Okay, White Zombie comes out that year. Wow, Faster Pussycat comes out that year, more of a of the glam. Yeah. And then I just I had to go look this. Google Dolls nineteen eighty seven, eighty seven, Wow, Jed? Right? Was that their first album? No Google dollas Google Dolls

fu? Yeah? Yeah, yeah that southing? Okay, yeah? Was Jed was second? Second raw? That's raw. It's awesome because Robbie singing all of it. Robbie is the lead singer. Robbie Tai Kak, the bass player, is the lead singer of the Google Dolls. When they come out, like you talk about a band, I mean, I realized bands evolved in mutate and have changed, But when you really think about how that band just completely changed, and and good on them for making a change to

the way it did. But wow, you know, when you think about that story, that's pretty cool. Man. Yeah, eighty seven was kind of a ship year, dude, except for guns for guns and rows, and then maybe that helped it great. Either eighty eight's not great. Winger self titled album comes out, that's where you get seventeen, but a way Bullet Boys comes out smooth up in you. Yeah, Yeah, it's Nice Vixen, the all girl rock band. That's the that's the one you were

probably looking for when you bought Poison. Yeah, I got the wrong one. Kingdom, Come, Brittany la Guns. I mean nineteen eighty eight we are we are just at peak glam metal. We're just peak shit, you know. But then you got dan Zig, Melissa Ethridge, Jeff Healey band again. You gotta squeeze in the Canadian artist here and there. Jeff healely was fucking great, guys, the movie Roadhouse. He's the house band, all right, brilliant, He's blind. He plays the guitar like Stevie ray

Vaughn. Okay, like Stevie ray Vaughn. That's what he sounds like Blues wise, but he plays it flat on his lap and he plays it like one of those country steel guitars. Yeah, he's fucking gold. Everyone, please go look up the song can you See the Light? Okay because he couldn't because he was blind. Can you see? And it's fucking insane how great it is? And then what's the cover Roadhouse Blues in the movie?

He does Roadhouse Blues? Yeah, And then he had that song to hit the drippy you would angeliz or something like that or angel yeah yeah, yeah, yeah, which was a great song too. Man. You know what else he couldn't see? Come on, you couldn't see that girls Teddy's when she did that dance on the stage and Roadhouse either couldn't see that, Like he's just sit up there looking around well, you know, not looking around whatever. This is terrible, by the way, we're so canceled. Dalton

got her down. Thought he did because Dalton. I mean, you want some good life advice, you pay attention to Roadhouse. Dalton will get you straight. Dude. Yeah. Eighty what was he eight? Nineteen eighty eight? They give the year to Living Color. You know what? This is where I'm going to disagree I love Living Car Color, but Winger was way bigger. They were all over MTV, all those hits, the Miles Away, the Pretty Boys, I mean, Winger was bigger. I'm sorry.

It was so shocking that Living Color was a black hard rock band. You know, it was such a big deal. You know. I've heard them, you know, talking, and they've talked recently with everything going on with Jan Winner, the Rolling Stone guy that said, stupid shit, Living Color wants to be in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. And I'm sorry

they're a one hit wonder. They're a one hit wonder. I don't they broke down barriers and things, but with one song, I'm sorry, it's a one hit wonder to me. Had they done more, uh, you know, a couple more songs than yes, I'd be I'd be all right. I'll never forget the first time I saw him, I think I saw I remember hearing the song, going, holy shit, what a great song called a person amazing, what an amazing the guitar and the whole thing,

and I'm like, this is unbelievable. And then I watched one Saturday Live and I went still one of the best Saturday Live performances from a band. It's it's got to be up there to top ten. And I'm like, what wait if they would have followed it up with three and four songs, you know, not Open Letter or with Landlord and stuff. I mean, it's okay, it's it's just it's just not great. It's just it wasn't great. And then there wasn't a second and a third album that you that

you can sit here and talk about hits. Well, Rod, I love those albums, okay, but who loves him? Not that many? No, no, not that many. Yeah, you need more than that or a one hit wonder. I do love him though, I mean, Vernon reads fucking guitar solo on that damn song cult to Personality. It's just here I can I'm gonna show you what I can do. And he just just fucking played as fast as he could and it was great. Yeah. Yeah, No, it's spectacular the whole song. He's just ripping through the whole

thing. So yeah, but I gotta go winger on that one, man, I gotta go winger. Sorry. I got the last one as we and I think maybe nineteen eighty nine Jason Guinty. Yeah, I Nails, nine inch Nails, Head like a Hole again. Now you're seeing this college

rock kind of what it was called back then. Wait a minute, this just really starting to break through now, nine inch Nails, not as they didn't become huge yet, but they debuted in nineteen eighty nine, and let me tell you, there was a buzz about band Stone Roses They're out, They come out, Nirvana's Bleach comes out, mud Honey is out, Mother Love Bone is out in nineteen eighty nine. Again, these aren't household names

yet, but it's so funny. It's so interesting to me to see that none of that stuff is existing in nineteen eighty, eighty one, eighty two, and then you're starting to see eighty three and eighty four Chili Peppers and these bands. Wait a minute, they're just fucking laying the foundation, you know, to what's coming later on, and it's see all the way back to r EM you know, right, yeah, you can see it. It's funny. How but but you know what I mean, how why were

they all so different sound? You know, they weren't filling any trends, you know what I mean. They were doing their own things because there was no playbook yet there was no playbook. It was just you're listening, but you're listening to everything that was before you, you know what I mean.

So there's all these influences, but somehow all these bands just kind of sounded different, which was great that It's kind of why skid wrote or that's kind of why Sound Garden like sounds like a metal band, you know, because that was their influence, you know. But then they came in they just kind of ended up doing their own thing, all right. Nineteen eighty nine I mentioned Green Day, Offspring, Pennywise, and then you still got you

still got the Hair, so you got enough's enough. You got Mister Big with Buffalo Boy actually Tonawanda Boy, Billy Sheen, bad Lands, Underrated Band, Dangerous Toys, Dream Theater, and then I guess more on the college side, Lenny Kravitz, Yeah, they give the year to skid Row.

Makes sense. My only thing I made a note about, like, you know, Warrant was pretty big that year, and again I'll take skid Row way over Warrant, But you got to think about the video power of Warrant's videos, you know, the cherry Pies of the world, all that shit. So yeah, I'll give it a skin road just because I like him better. But yeah, no, I can't be mad about that at all.

No, I get And going back to the sound guard and comment, Rod, I forget if it's Outshined or it's Rusty Cage off of Bad motor Finger, but Chris Cornell said that that he wanted to write a hill billy black Sabbath song. That was what he was trying to accomplish, and one of them, I forget if it's Rusty Cage Outshine, but and I'm like, when you listen to it, you kind of go, yeah, yeah,

I can hear that he succeeded. I think that's awesome. Yeah, he would sit down and go, I want to make it sound like this. He had have a sound in his head and that's how he described it, and then of course it comes out just fucking awesome. So Rod, why don't we take a break and we'll come back with our top five favorite Nerbana song, which is what is this episode two? Yeah? Right? You know what they didn't mention in Loudwire. I just I looked it up

because it's just because we talked about r em you two eighty. They weren't huge, but they didn't even get a mentioned for the year for them coming out in nineteen eighty. Maybe they didn't just they might not hit the market. It might have been just like one of those things where it's kind of big in England and barely did anything in the US or some shit. I don't know, that's a that's a weird boy. Yeah, I don't know. I don't remember. I was fucking eleven and just running around in my

kiss makeup. Okay, uh top five favorite Nirvana songs coming up. Hey, guys, next time you visit New Orleans, man be sure in book a Pirate Tour French Quarter walking tour like no other.

People are finding out about this damn tour and they're taking it. So that's my words of wise wisdom today, Rod, that's it. Just want to let you know those few tidbits. Thank you for those wise words. Oh wise one Nirvana, dude, I mean this, It got me listen to Nirvana again. Outside of the five songs we play on the radio NonStop.

It got me listen to Nirvana again. And I think that's a good thing because Kurt was a great songwriter. And Dave Grohl always says that he always puts Kurt on a pedestal, you know, I imagine things got bad at times, and you know, he's kind of like like divorced parents, how you just don't like talk bad about the other parent, you know, because they know he knows how much people, you know, how they have their their love and all they ever does is talk about positive things, you

know, and that's just kind of him. But he always talks about like what an unbelievable songwriter Kurt was, and when you go and you listen to some of these songs that aren't played on the radio. The ones that are played on the radio are great, and they're played on the radio for a reason. They're the ones that most people like. But now you're at the point where the band, you know, they've got such they had such little

production because they weren't around that long. You can almost just go in and play anything on the radio and it's I think people would just okay, yeah, it's Nirvana. You know, it's kind of like the first Guns N' Roses album. There are singles off the album, but the whole album is singles now and Pearl Jam's you know, first album, it's those are all singles now. They're so popular and they're so they're so well known. Nirvana's

kind of like that with their catalog. You know, three albums technically, I mean three real albums, you know, it's it's insane, yeah, and nobody really knows the first one, and I felt compelled to get something off of the first album, which I did, and it is a great song. But yeah, you got three albums. Then you got the MTV Unplugged, Then you have Incesticide, which was kind of like this greatest hits. You know something, there was a money grab for you know, for

the label. There was a stop gap between between Nevermind and they wanted them to release in Utero sooner than they did, and so they're like, well, fuck it, let's just put this out and that gets us. We're coming off the heat of Nevermind and then this will bridge the gap before in Utero. And it worked. You know. Yeah, it's the game, all right, Top five. I'm gonna go first, please do. I bet you We've got I love. I love doing this now. Man, I'm gonna go to one. I'm gonna go to one. You think that

we only have we have two minimum of two. Right, Let's see what's up, dog, We'll see what's up. Everyone knows this song, but if you listen to Kurt on the Unplugged in New York, he said, this one's off our first album. Nobody knows it. And it's so weird because it's the time capsule. It's like, Kurt, everybody knows that song now about a girl. Go back and listen to the Bleach version of that

song. It's just he's a great songwriter. What I was just saying, and it's it's it's evident on that first album of course, Nirvana and never Mind is what blew them open. But you gotta go back, and you gotta pay your respects and you gotta go listen to Bleach and it's the album that Dave Grohl fell in love with the band, and he even said that was my dream job to be asked to be in this band. He thought

Bleach was the best thing he's ever heard before. So if Dave girl thought it was that good, then has everybody gone back and listen to that? About a girl from Bleach is in at my number five? I just, you know, I wanted to spread things out a little bit. In at

number four. I remember when the song came into the radio station. We were in Buffalo, you know, you're right, and it was a song that they found and it just it made me so happy because it was recorded after Heart Shaped Box or a in Utero, and it really did sound like this is what Nirvana was going to sound like. Yeah, it just had a cool darkness to it. It was heavy. It was classic Kurt with

his voice, and it was angsty. You know, you're right. I don't know if it's like the songwriting and everything, if it's the best song. But for me, it was so exciting, and I was hoping that there was going to be a bunch more and then Dave came in and kind of shipped on that and said, oh yeah, I forgot we did that one. But that's it. There's I don't think there's going to be like

a hundred more songs. That's it. That's all we did. That song is so great, and it's frustrating to me because god damn, they just and nobody thinks that Nirvana would have been around, you know, had Kurt been alive, that's it. Solo, he'd be doing something, you know, he'd be in a coffee shop somewhere, you know, singing with an acoustic guitar, or he would have formed a band with Michael Stipe. But that song, it's fucking a rocker. It's great. It's absolutely That's my

number four. My number three is Heart Shaped Box. I just thought coming off of such a huge album there, the second album, I almost I still sometimes slip and call it the debut, but coming in that strong Heart Shaped Box is amazing. The visually, the video is amazing. Everything about it. Uh, the song is unbelievable and it's about Courtney Love's Filthy Crotch Uh. Number two Come as You Are, Yeah, and number one, my all time favorite Nirvana song, which I think should be played on the

radio. Breed. Yes, it's the most rocking Nirvana song. It doesn't have to be your favorite, but I will fight you. It is the most rocking Nirvana song. There's nothing that even comes close. It rocks, but it's still palatable. It's a yes, oh yeah, yeah yeah, because he's singing, but it's it's a fucking face melter. You remember God, and he's so talented, and I hope he comes back with some something really big. But Aron Jones, yes, you listen to him at all.

He was from Seattle. Yeah, dude, Lenny Kravitz, and it's like, Okay, I get it. He's black. You gotta go with the black guy, Lenny Kravitz and Nirvana boom, those busses hit and you get a Ron Jones. Right. So we're watching Aron Jones. He's playing a buzz fest and I'm sitting I got Alex with me, and I hear Dana and I look over and I'm like, it's taking me a minute, taking me a minute, And I go I look at Alex, I go

fucking Breed. He's doing Nirvana and he did a cover of it. Yeah, and I already really was into his stuff, but man, those covers hit guys. If there's a local band listening, do a goddamn cover at least one or two. I lost my mind. I lost my mind because we're not going to see Nirvana. I never saw Nirvana. So when I hear somebody that you know, he's from Seattle, he's a fucking major accomplished guitar player and just got an amazing voice. I heard Breed and I just

I was so excited. I don't know that I've ever seen anybody ever do it live, so it was great. You know, it's the only time I've seen that song performed live myself. Wow. Yeah, No, that's a great song. You know. The other song and I didn't put on my list that that is just fucking visceral. But it's not as melodic as Breed, if that's even the right way to describe Breed. But like Territorial

Pissings is just fucking nails on a chalkboard, rip your face. So I love that song, but it's like Breed makes more sense it's it's more palatable. Well, damn, you know what. I think you got me man, you were right too, but I don't think you are gonna yeah yeah, the two we got. I was shocked. Actually, all right, that's a good list, dude, that's that's a very good list. Let

me thank you. Let me Yeah, You're welcome and appreciate that. I mean, coming from a program director of an alternative rock station, I haven't said I did good. I mean, you know, proud of you, man, you did a nice job. Then I gotta village. You'll keep your confidence high, bro. Thanks, Thanks chef. Uh. There was a song that came in to the Buffalo funny how you mentioned this the Buffalo Station early days? And it was a great album, and at least in

my head it was great. I remember it having a lot of really interesting, cool songs on it. I think there was a Google Dials song on it. I think you'll you'll know. The album was called No Alternative and it was an album that a bunch of artists put out for AIDS fundraising age relief, and it was called No Alternative and it just had like a black bunch of black circles on it and Nirvana did a song. It was originally called Sappy, but then it got rechanged to Verse Chorus Verse, and it's

fucking great. It's one of my favorite Nirvana songs of all time. It is a really good song. And I remember playing that. I remember playing that off of the No Alternative compilation album. Yeah, and I think the Google Dells had I think they did Bitch with the incredible Lance Diamond and they had the horns and the whole thing. I think that was the Stones tune they did on that or was that a different I don't have to look it up. It was something with Lance Diamond. Yeah, but they did that

song. I think you're right. I think that that cover was on that album. Look up, it'll be on YouTube somewhere. Look dig up the No Alternative album and goes on that sucker. Man, there's some good shit on there. I can't remember who else was on there, but that was a cool album anyway, Verse Chorus Verse number five, number four coming backwards

is hard Dude number four. And this is cool because it comes from an album released thirty years ago in Utero and you had Heart Shaped Box, then you had All Apologies, the third single on that album, was supposed to be this song Penny Royal t and it's fucking great, and it didn't get released because Kurt was dead and they just went, Okay, we're done.

That's enough of that shit. Penny Royalt gets lost because you go back and listen to that song and you're gonna be like, oh fuck, this is a banger two man, because it's got that same Nirvana soft loud, soft loud. It's great. It's great. Penny Royalty. That's at number four, number by four three. I can't believe you have to count backwards every time. Jesus Yeah, and my daughter does a better job of counting backwards than you. I got dropped on my head. I think when I was

a kid a few times or something. I don't know. Anyway, Number three and it's not The song is not about what you think it's about. The song is called rape Me. And if you got the balls to put on a song and you're screaming at the top of your lungs and the only way Kurt can scream rate me over and over again. At the end of it, you're like, Okay, this is fucked up. But he's really talking about like mass media and the machine and just him feeling violated from his

fame that he hated apparently. So that's what that song is about, by the way. Fucking it's if you if you can get past what he's those words, because it's hard, especially in this day and age. Fucking great song, absolutely amazing song. It used to be in pretty heavy rotation, man, And it was weird playing that song, you know, when fucking mom's loading up the minivan and in the morning. Yeah, well, we do, like on Fridays, we do like a bunch of nineties shit.

And that comes up as I'm kind of scheduling the music and every time I just I stopped as I'm going through the log and scheduling the music for that Dan and I and I and I stopped on rape Me and I go, oh, do I want to play it? Yeah? And I do, of course. And then and then check this out, dude, boom, here's our two. Number two breed right, such a great song. Fuck, it's great and number one. You know, you're right. And I remember hearing that the first time, and I'm like, I was just like

so excited, like, oh my god, there's one. They got one left. This is great. They found the Nirvana song Holy Shit, hoping it was gonna be great, and that Basseline in the beginning that it's you're just going, oh my god, this is fucking awesome. And then when he is screaming pain and that's what he's saying, pain and he just let it drag out forever. It's that classic ripping your vocal cords to shreds uh to shreds Kurt Cobain style of screaming, Yeah, you're just you're feeling the

pain, and it's like, god damn. And then that was it. It was so exciting, It was so unbelievably exciting when that when that song it, we got to play it on the radio, so talking about it and it just it really was when you I mean, just take like the singles, okay, just take smells like teen Spirit and then Heart Shaped Box. There's progression there, oh absolutely, And then you know, you know, you're right, an album full of that that would have been amazing.

Why just to plow your fucking head off that album would have been unbelievable as selfish music fans, you know what I mean, If you just put it that way, if you look at it through that lens, I mean, I was so excited about that song, but then after I listened to it, I was so bummed out that I was like, this is fucking where they were going. Yes, and you know, obviously the band was not going to stick around for very long, but they would have gotten back together.

I think they would have come and gone, I really do. I think they would have went, fuck it, guys at mission, let's go do another album and bang it out, and it would have been it would have been the last Nirvana album though, yes, for a long time. I think it would have been it. But god, man, to see where it would have went, Oh my god, it's so so great. So yeah, we did get too. My top two were you know, the songs that you chose as well, So pulled up the album No Alternative,

Nice Matthew, Sweet Buffalo, tom Urge, over Kill Again. These were all like these were all like throwaway tracks from these bands, you know that they just kind of donated to the album, you know, whatever they had extra laying around. You were right on the Google Dolls with the incredible Lance Diamond. They did a cover of Bitch Nice Billy Corgan, Smashing Pumpkins, Bob Mould, Sarah McLaughlin. Sound Garden is on there with a song called show Me. I don't remember that song. I have the album.

Uncle Tupelo is on their Beastie Boys, the Breeders, Patti Smith, Nirvana, Versus Chorus Verse, Sonic Youth, I mean, huge, huge names on that album. I remember listening to it and I remember it being full of Okay, yeah, these are things that weren't good enough to make their albums, you know. But but you're right. The Nirvana song was a standout Google Dolls covers because I love covers, but it was a really good cover and it was weird. You know, Google Dolls they get on this

album. It's a big deal for them to be mentioned because they weren't on the level of Smashing Pumpkins, and they weren't on the level of Nirvana, and you know, even the Breeders, sound Garden, Sarah McLaughlin. But when somebody picked up that album, it wasn't Johnny singing. It was a lounge singer from Buffalo, you know. Incredible that they worked with who you know, when you listen to that, there's just there's just cool oozing out

of that. I mean, there's so much cool losing out of that because Lance Diamond was fucking cool man. He was a badass, and he just added something to that bad It's like I kind of wish they did a few more songs with him back of the day, you know, because they were so well done. Can never take the place of your man. That's the best song. That's the best song that the Google Dills do with the incredible Lance Diamond. It's a Prince cover. Cha la la la. It's so

great. It's it's so freaking great. I can never take the place of your man Prince cover. Look it up Google Dolls and then you'll just it'll be Lance Diamond, will just Lance Diamond comes in at no extra charge. When you looked that up to go listen to it. It's it's spectacular. But yeah, so yeah, no, it was weird doing the Nirvana thing. Man. I'm like, okay, well here we go, and again you know what it's hard for for what I do and what you do for

a living. It's like, I'm not putting lithium on there. Is it a great song? You bet your ass it is. I'm not putting I love coming as you are because I love that sound, that that kind of drippy guitar and everything is very cool. But again, I mean, dude, I nope, don't eat it. It's like, if you're working at McDonald's every day, you're gonna get that whopper on your Sunday off, maybe I guess, but probably not. Aren't we going to get a Nirvana biopic?

I think there's a lot of moving parts within. Courtney Love is the problem. Courtney Love's a problem. She's not going to sign off on anything. She's gonna be the wrench in the works. But god, I would love it. I would. I think there'd be a lot to uncover there. I mean, she stands to make a lot of money if it's made. You know, you know what, you know what really needs to be made. The Dave Growls story needs to be made, because that takes Nirvana.

He would be the thread. He's the story because he does all this shit goes from that goes through food fight, it creates food. But that's the story, you know what I mean. And the obviously the recent tragedy, I mean, that's terrible, but that's an arc in a story that's I think you gotta do the Dave story. Eventually, anything gonna happen soon. Yeah, I don't think you do it while he's doing what he's doing. You know, he's too busy doing shit he do. He's too busy

doing being real and active. So yeah, but I do. I do think that that's that is a band that if you recognize and you would have to include these other bands, even if it was just the Flannel four that we just got done talking about it in a previous podcast. I really do think that Nirvana is it's there for the taking. I think it's mass appeal enough, you know, I don't look at it like how we talked about Motley Crue the Dirt straight to Netflix, Kiss is straight to Netflix, I

believe. I haven't heard anything about that movie. By the way, I haven't heard anything other than it was gonna happen. I think Nirvana is big screen. I do. I as long as you're recognizing that, you also have to kind of talk about the movement and all of that and and and grunge and how it changed the culture. And you know, you would even have to kind of include you know, some hair bands in there, and you know them fucking freaking out. You know, you have to get somebody

to play Brett Michael's going, what the fuck is this Nirvana shite? We're done over my record anymore. You'd have to include some of that stuff. You'd have to you'd have to include what crumbled too. I just I think there's something there. I do well, I think then, but I also have to try and figure out a way to work in, you know, the fact that there's other elements happening. There's gen X, there's there's the movies, like the singles movie that comes out, you know, and there's

just all these elements. There's just again, it's lightning in a bottle. It's it's it was the perfect song for the perfect time. You know that hits any other time doesn't quite do what it did. I don't know, But there there are so many elements swirling around it. You almost have to come in and bring all those elements into play as well. Know, Yeah, there's so much in the fashion took off and just everything. Well, you know how it ends. So the movie kind of ends dark, you

know, Yeah, it's all dark. Everybody knew how the Elvis movie was gonna end. Yeah, it didn't end well, let's just say it wasn't a happy ending. So well, you know, The rod Ryan Show presents the Boobs Rock Golf Tournament October eighteenth at Wildcat Golf Club. This is coming up pretty soon, man, you look, I get it. You're gonna drink a bunch of beers. You're gonna go out there and do dumb shit. But between now and October eighteenth, if you're if you've already got your

You're gonna be working, but you know working, Okay, I'm doing air quotes in case you're not watching this on the YouTube Jazz working at the car show? Are you gonna be working? Are you even bringing clubs? No? I don't bring clubs anymore. No. We used to do all those golf tournaments and me and you'd be like, oh, I got my clubs. Meet true and we go and we get out

there, and I'm like, did you even fuck though? I just drive bother I don't even Yeah, I don't even pretend anymore. I don't bring the clubs. I just walk around and hang out with everybody, and you know, it's my job just to go around and make sure but he's having a good time and you know it. You know what's funny is years later I got invited to like a legit golf tournament, right, Like, I didn't know what a legit golf tournament was, like a you know, the

scramble, what do they call it? The shotgun start or whatever it is, right, and uh, and I'm thinking I've cruised up and I'm like, oh, yeah, this would be great. Beers everywhere. It's gonna be fucking crazy. Because the radio ones we used to do were pretty fucking legal. Were great. Yeah, they were great. And uh and I show up, I'm like, all right, here we going, and yeah, we golfed. It was weird. I didn't quite understand what's going on. I was so late, I was so often in doubt the direction.

And then when I had to actually legit golf and shit, I'm like, oh, well, what the hell is this? I thought we were just gonna see strippers and have fun. God. Yeah, not all golf tournaments are like the ones that we used to do or do. Yeah, it's not like that. But you get used to a certain thing in life, and then when you do something else it's weird, like like it. For a while, I was on on radio for a couple of years, and I went and became a civilian, as we like to call it, right,

I came. I became as a as a cousin would say, I became a normy. I came. I became a normal human being. And I didn't know what to do with myself because I would say shit, ha ha, I'm thinking it is funny, and people just look at me and shock. I'm like, okay, I'm not I'm not saying anything anymore because you get a costume to the workplace that you're in and it's like it really will don't don't go be a normy rod, don't do it. Well,

you're not like this, You're not. I don't like this because because you're in van Halen. You're in van Halen because you're like this. Yeah, I'm not. I'm not like this because I'm on the radio. I'm on the radio because I'm like this, that's your sweet how come you had that one done? Yeah? Come on, I can do all your ship for you. Come on, dude, any final thoughts. Yeah. So we on Sunday, the kid and I. We get up in the morning.

She knows it's football. She's kind of you know, she doesn't really care so much about the game, but she's just you know, Josh Allen Buffalo Bills. She wants to wear Bills stuff. I'm into it, Okay, she's into it a little bit. It's cool. We eat ant Sue sent us a box of Josh Jack's that the cereal is called. Really, that's the cereal Josh Jacks. Fluty Flakes are is still the winner, man, I mean Josh Jacks. That's that feels a little, that feels a little

trying. That's trying pretty hard. Here's an old last year's model Josh Jacks, no j a q S Jacks. Well, you gotta get the people in Canada excited about them too. For those of you that don't know, General Mills is in Buffalo and they make cheerios downtown. You can smell them, and you can smell cheerios and she's pretty good. So if you've heard most people have probably heard of Fluty Flakes. Yeh, like fucking and the

quarterback in Buffalo has his own breakfast cereal. Kind of cool. And then you know, retroactively, they made you know, Kelly's heroes, and then when we signed Terrell Owens, we had t O's and then there was even you know, Ryan Miller had his own cereal from the Sabers. And you know, my sister always sends me this stuff. So Josh Allen has his own breakfast cereal. All right, now you're caught up. So we're eating our cereal, okay, and then my kid says I'm done. I'm like,

whoa fucking there's milk in there. There's a couple of like loopers in there, and there's milk. My question this morning is, when you're done with your cereal, do you drink the remaining milk out of the bowl? I just kind of assumed that every person on the planet drank that sugary ass milk with the cement at the bottom and everything, right, it was the best part. Or if you have a lot of milk, fucking load it up with some more cereal. Hit it again. So I tell my kid,

I'm like, you drink the that's the best part. She's like, I don't want it. I'm You're not my kid. You can't be mine. You cannot be mine if you're not drinking that. So of you think fat boy throws it away. No, I drank mine. Then I drank hers. Yeah, of course. I did a poll question this morning, when you're done with your cereal, do you drink the remaining milk out of

the bowl? Seventy five percent of people yeah, fourteen percent, sometimes ten percent, never, never, you don't drink the milk that remains after you're done eating your delicious cereal. Weirdos, Man, don't ask about things that you don't want to know the answer to. I just assume that everybody did it. Now, I think people are weird. That's something you find you weird if you don't do if you don't drink the milk, what's wrong with

you? That is something you put in your tindered profile. I think at this point you need to we need to know this. If you're gonna go out man, hitting something, you gotta you gotta know this. So a couple of things I know about this. Yes, A right, I will drink that shit. I'm not a waster when it comes to that. I'm not wasting. But here's the thing. As I've progressed in age, when I do eat cereal, I kind of know the ratio to ceretal milk.

So I've got it timed out and measured just about right. So when I get down there, there's very little left. I've got it kind of worked out. After seventy five years of fucking eating cereal. I kind of got it, you know what I mean. But whatever its left though you're up

there, Yeah, it's done. But there's very it's usually very little, okay, okay, But back in the day, you know, when you got the cool, awesome cereal like cocoa puffs and the fruity pebbles and shit, that milk was like that was the best part of the damn thing. And it was some men everloaded it with extra milk because you knew that drink at the end was going to be kick ass drink your fucking milk. Why would you waste it? Don't waste it, you know what I mean.

Don't waste it. So that led me to believe. But that led me to this. If I'm eating so if I'm eating a bag of chips, okay, and I get the last decent one that you're gonna grab, there's clearly a bunch of stuff in there, Okay, crumb. Let me tell you, Chubsi's. I'm I'm making a valley in that Dorito's bag, and I am I am eating everything that's in that bag. I am not throwing away all of that awesome chipness that's in that bag. Again, why would

you wasted It's still there, It's still good. Like, I don't go chip valley out of the bag, you know, what I mean, I'm not doing that. I'm not circus cealing the thing. But I will pour it in my hand and I will go, i will go horse out of a feedbag. I'll just lick it out of there that way and bag right to my fat face. And I'm I'm eating all of those chip, those wonderful little bits that some of them are just absolutely coated in all the dust.

Awesome again, I mean, this is this is just I thought that was just a normal human thing. There's certain things you expect out of life, and it's drinking the milks and eating the crumbs out of the bottom of the chip. I mean, the chips are good. It's not like, you know, maybe you're not a huge fan of broccoli and there's a couple of little guys kind of chilling on your plate and you're like, yeah,

I'm good, Okay, I got you. I'm okay with that. The milk in the cereal is fucking gold and the chip dust is spectacular wonderful. Right, I think I've figured out now. I know that this is probably not a huge problem for you, but some people can't sleep at night. Rod. There are people in this world, which is most who can't sleep at night, They toss, they turn. You know, I've literally resorted

to counting sheep. I don't take it for granted, dude. I like, I don't even like talking about it because I fall asleep so easily, and I know, it's like like an awesome thing that I have in my life. It's like the one cool thing that I have. So it's like I don't want to talk about it because I don't want it to go away, because I realize what a problem it is for people. It's brutal,

and I have that same I have this problem all the time. So I just start thinking of shit and it's like fuck, So I I think I got a solution for people. And it ain't drugs. It ain't fucking listening to this podcast to put you asleep at night. Don't do that. That's not fair or funny. I just tried this one night out of the blue. I don't know if I read it somewhere, but I tried this.

So you know how when you like go on vacation, right, You go on vacation and you go somewhere and you just there's a moment in that vacation where you're doing something and you remember it vividly. Okay. For instance, I went to the beach I don't know, weeks ago, and I would get up every other day at six am and walk quarter of a mile and then go to a pier and go fish on my son. Right. But at six am there's nobody out. It's quiet, you know. And so

what I did was because I enjoyed that walk so much. I tried to recreate the work, no visually in my mind. I'm recreating so and I'm doing it from stepping out of the bed. I'm like, okay, the lamp was blue, and I'm trying to throw every possible, trying to really

focus on the details, and like okay. And then I would go and I'd make I'd grab a cup of coffee, I grab the cooler, grab the fish, and poles out the door, down the elevator and oh yeah, this had the dog walking lady was there every morn And I'm painting the picture I've got. I've yet to get to the pier. Like I have yet to get to the pier. I fall asleep, like it's I don't know what it works. It works. I don't even get out of the building hardly if it works. It works, dude, But but it's gotta

be something you like. You got to pick out something that you can remember all the and as you start building it in your mind, you'll start seeing the color of the floor, the wallpaper, the you know, oh, there's the Eiffel Tower in the distance, or wherever you were on vacation or whatever. Recreate it vividly, and you won't get to your destination. Man, you knocked right out. It works. I don't know why. I like if I walked myself through the prom nineteen eighty seven, the Bitto Perry

Niagara Falls Boulevard, the vibrating Bartles and James that we were drinking. You think if I walk myself through all of that, I'll fall asleep before the fun stuff happened. Yeah, because you're getting out of the station wagon and you're like fuck and you're like damn it, and then you park a lot and you remember, like fixing the cuff on your shirt, Like you really

got to go detail heavy. Yeah, really, it really painted the forts yourself to paint the picture, Like, look around, but you won't get out of the fucking bed hardly. I thought I was very detailed with my Bartles and James reference. I don't know, man, but it's worked. I've yet, I've yet to even get close to the pier and fish on my journey that I tried to create, And man, it works every time. I'm like, okay, take the walk, and I just start taking

the walk and boom gone done. If if it was a problem for me to fall asleep, I would no longer be weed curious. I would be partaking in weed. Okay, if I just I would not be able to afford to not be able to fall asleep with the little amount of sleep that I get. Right, Yeah, I'm not crying and whining about it. I'm just saying this is what I chose to do. But I mean, I get that six hours every day. If it was a problem, I'd be weeds number one customer. You know, I really would. There's no

question about it. So whether it's coming and you know, and I've got some gummies here and stuff, and you know they're nighttime gummies, and but it's legal stuff. It's not like the good good stuff. I don't know what it is. I don't know what it is. We've come down this road before. We don't know what the fuck it is, yeah, we don't, but I'm freaking out. It's like, boom, I'll take one of these gummies. I'm like, okay, I'll go to sleep. Great,

so let me throw this out. And I know we're trying to wrap up, you know what, we should just start the podcast here and then just get rid of the rest of the ship. But so in the last two months, I've had a lot of different conversation with a lot of different people, right as you would in life, but the same thing has come up a few times. Like anything seems to work in cycles. So I'm talking to a buddy of mine from years ago and we're just telling stories and

stuff. He goes, yeah, you know, back in my cocaine days, blah blah blah blah blah blah, tell some story, tell some story, bad things. And I went okay, And I don't, okay, what if you did blow back in the date whatever? You're young, Who gives a shit? Do you think? Another? Like a week and a half later, I'm talking to a guy in the record business, and of course those guys you know, and and he goes, yeah, he goes, you know, I'm back in my when I was doing blow and I'm

like, ah, okay, well that's a second one. And then I had like five or six people over the course of like six weeks do the old well back when I was doing blow back, when I was doing cocaine, and I'm thinking to myself, I must have missed it because I don't have those reference points. I didn't have I don't have the you know, back when I'm doing blow I don't have those stories either. But it's like so many of them kept coming up, and I'm like, mother fuck,

I missed that. On the blow I was only really around it a couple of times. To be honest with you, I mean, it just wasn't always around. I'm glad I wasn't around it that much, but the times that I was around it, it's just like, nah, no way. The only thing that I did is somebody must have been cutting up some shit on my drums or I'm like one of my drum cases back in the day. So it was in my van and there was some residue on it,

So there was some cocaine residue. I don't think I've ever shared this with you, but there was, you remember, and I don't. I don't really have any reference. I don't really know how to do coke or anything like that, but I know that scarface. After he got done doing it, then he'd like rumps him on his fucking teeth. Yeah, really numbs

your gums or some shit. He gets it helps dude. So there was a little bit on there and I just like, oh, fuck it, and I rubbed it on my teeth and I felt like a monkey face, like I felt like Planet of the Apes, Like my mouth was in front of my face. I've honest the gun like I didn't get high at all, but the numbing qualities and the numbing properties of it, just that little bit I felt like the I don't know how else to put it, like I had like a dog nose or something like my mouth was dend it away

from my face snout. Like it happened almost instantly. Wow, it's like this. I got like this. I rub it on my gums, and all of a sudden, my fucking face grew like the American werewolf in London. It's exactly what it felt like. If you know the reference, you know the reference, you know this Pinocchio face. Man, it just grew. It happened. That's the only time so I guess I want to say, you know, did you ever do blow Like? No, but really it rubbed some of my gums once and I felt like a monkey head.

I can't imagine snarfing that ship then, can you imagine? Oh my god that no wonder people do it? But yeah, I just I think it was off. But you damn dirty ape. Yeah, so that's that's my back in my blow days, back in my cocaine monkey head monkey face days. The German Shepherd of north Ton of One. Yeah, dude, honest to god, it really did. It's like I could feel it growing. Yeah, apparently there's a lot of people there with back in the days of

when I was doing blow stories. I just was kind of like blown away that it kind of hit me a bunch of times in a short period of time. It's like, Okay, I obviously missed a train somewhere along the road. Yeah. Yeah, I wasn't around it. I wasn't interested, No, no, I have no desire, didn't care. I didn't want to do it all right.

Your top fives are so much better than ours, so always, you know, the best place to leave them is on our YouTube page at play pants Pod. But you know, Twitter and Facebook and Instagram at play pants Pod. It's really funny how

like everyone's lists are better than ours. I'm starting to think maybe everyone else you do a podcast and then we sit back and just listen to the damn thing because it probably gonna better. I mean, you know, when you think about it, Yeah, you guys should just do podcasts and we'll leave top We'll just whatever you're doing your top fives on, we'll just add ours

to yours. But you know you've got an all fairness, you know, you know how one like there's someone says something, but then you can come up with a million ideas. It is a little bit easier once someone's already kind of laid out some groundwork. I'm just saying, I love the suggestions. And by the way, that guy that gave me his grunge list, he said, you guys have not done a top five Smashing Pumpkins song.

Listen what well? I think I got a couple of what we come up with a TV show theme songs would be a good one, and the Smashing Punkins. I love that idea. Here's what I'm gonna almost demand. I'm gonna demand that they're broken out seventies, eighties, nineties for TV. It's just too much, man. I mean, even like with the with the videos that was when that idea was kind of introduced to me, we really

could have done, you know, eighties and nineties. I'm really, you know, done a real service to videos with a top five from me each decade. And I think with TV, you know, homes almost I mean if my all time TV shows, I mean like Game of Thrones is a TV show, right, Yes, I think that counts. Yeah, So like you're gonna have you're gonna have that and Sandford and Son on the same

fucking list. I mean, those are the same you're telling me those are Those are both television shows, right, yeah, The Love Boat and yeah and Bad Yeah right, Colombo and Game of Thrones, night Rider and yeah, I know, night night Rider and The Wire those are TV shows, right, Yeah, maybe not night Writer. So what I'm saying is there's no way that you're gonna put the fucking Brady bunch in Game of Thrones on the same goddamn list. We would have to do seventies, eighties and then

today, like nineties up until today. Yeah, I'd be or you know, eighties, seventies, eighties, and I would even be okay with nineties up till today. Yeah. I think that's fair because after that it's the TV theme kind of fall apart, you know what I mean? All Right, I think we got a couple of lists now stacked away that we can actually borrow from here in the next few weeks. So I like that. I mean, one Day at a time and Breaking Bad they're TV shows,

right, They're both television shows. Yeah, No, I mean, you know, w krap and Cincinnati and friends, what are you Gonna Do? Yeah? Those are two very good ones, I'll be honest.
