You're listening to the downbeat on ninety seven one the freak let me down again? Here you were my special plan. Now you got me wondering we you have love again? Let me go? You let me down. I'm getting it. That's a point. I'll add a point to my Maybe it's called let me down again? And now, yeah, I didn't write this one? Did you write one? Or many? Who? Solo coat or solo rights? The second one we played like that? Yeah, what's the other one you did? And then that woman of hell to no, no,
no, no, I know you hated that once. Yeah, those are my bottom too. Do you hate having to play songs that other people write? No, not at all. Sometimes prefer it. How many times does somebody write a song they're all excited and they come in and you're like, a lot really, oh yeah, that's not a good feeling. But a lot of bands, it's just that's part of being in it. It's like a marriage. It's all about compromise. God, I really could do this
for a long time. Have you ever I mean, I'm sure the answer is yes. Have you ever been very wrong? Like if someone brings in something and you're like, oh my god, okay, turns into one hundred percent that's great. Yep, yep, Or it grows on you, I guess yeah, or you find something in it and expound on that and it turns into something else, or you just your taste change or whatever. Yeah, there's it's amazing. You deal with a lot of agenda and ego because
everybody wants their stuff to be heard. You spend all this time on your own working on a tune. You bring it in and it's got a pass muster with you know, four other dudes and maybe a producer, and if they're not feeling it, then you kind of got's fascinating yea. And how about the bit and it's like art so it's all subjective, you know, and the bit where it's like we we didn't like his last three two songs,
so we kind of have to now do it. And then you're like, oh, I really love it, and then let's just tweak this and this, and then you keep tweaking stuff till it's really not even the song that you did, but you're like, your song's great. Yeah, And then you got to give Ringo one. Yeah, a Ringo It's it's one of the most you have to be pretty emotionally agile, and to deal with some of the politics of it all. It's a pain in the ass.
I wouldn't recommend being in a band at all, but it's definitely a young man's game when you kind of have that energy. But when you're older and you kind of get a little more set that, you think that I don't want to compromise. I like the way this is. Being in a band becomes increasingly difficult unless you've been together for a long time. But starting a band in you know age or earlier middle age, it's it's a lot harder than you think. Good times any because I wanted to ask you if you
joined the new band that I'm starting up. It's twelve pieces called twelve Stubborn Men. It sounds we're all just gonna work together and figure this out, all right. Can you imagine it's no nothing that's terrible. Twelably, we are twelve stubborn men. It's like a jury. That sounds horrible. Angry man, I'm going to politely decline your invitation. Think about it. Think about it. We've collabed on so much already. Danny and I are co
musicians. Could I give you one sports thing lighting fast. So I was watching some of that game last night, the Ravens and Bengals, right, and I could have pulled the audio and it probably would have been a lot better. It would have taken a little bit of editing, but there was like the wildest one minute in sports in a while. So let me just run you through the scenario. So the Ravens had the ball Z Flowers sixty eight yard touchdown? Right, okay, h flag call back holding OBJ.
Crowd is booing. They show the replay terrible. Announcers are like, that's awful, what a awful call. That should have been a touchdown. Cut to Joe Burrow, who had just run off the field. He's trying to throw one a warm up pass. He just injured his wrist. He falls out of his hands, it says all within a minute, Yes, the ball falls out, he winces. They're like, oh no. He starts walking toward ultimately the locker room. The crowd is still booing like crazy.
They cut to the ref time out do to an administrative issue. What I'm like, what the hell is that crowd still booing? Show Joe Burrow like somebody forgot to pay the account, right, Joe Burrows running to the locker room, and I think it's Herbstreet or maybe Al. I think there's a drone on the field. No way, yes, all within a minute. I rewounded and watch the whole thing. I'm like, that's the most chaotic sixty seconds I've ever seen. Wow. And then they do cut to a
drone with the green and the red lights. Cash, you got a bunch of drones. I mean, it was it on the field. It was over the field that I guess was the administrative time out because they had a drone attack happening. Wow, it's why you're supposed to fly over stadium, of course not. It's huge. It was just a bizarre I thought about pulling the audio because Al's trying to make sense of all this, and I mean, the massive news of Joe Burrow leaving, the Ravens getting screwed,
the crowd hating it. There's a drone over the field. I'm gonna look that up. It was. It was really wild. I'm gonna look that up. That story. I had to h two, were you gonna do hot mop in a minute? In a minute? You are right now? No? Two things like you're ready to go home. I uh, I listened to the show every morning. Wow, that is sweet. Yeah, no, I do. And in your fifty yeah yeah, you under fifty. That tower that's great, perfect, perfect, and people in your mailbox.
You guys had me on whistle talk uh huh. I was whistling Patience by Guns n' Roses the rest of the day. Yeah, because you guys had, you know, just and I had. I cannot wait. Christine is gonna be whipped by this, but I cannot wait to hear to make her try to whistle. They're on remote today, I believe, but if we're nice, she will give us a nice little whistling. It sounds like a broken kazoo. Dude, It's just And like I said last time, she goes yeah, there's a little in there, and I'm like, yeah,
you're real close. I want to I want she gonna be the thing tonight killing it. Yeah, okay, I want it in person. Maybe we'll get her to whistle the national anthem before the movies. What a great idea and that sweet Yes, everybody's stay remove your hat. And without telling I, we'd like to welcome Christina Ray to the front of the stage. There's a lectern and a microphone and they're like, all right, it's all yours. Our national anthem whistled. Carl Lewis runs out from behind the court
curtain. I've got this, and everyone's like thank you. And the other thing is I am such a fan of the Hot Mop in general. I like the idea of it, and I love the theme song. But in my head it's not an egregious error. Okay, but there's a missed opportunity in the lyrics to the song because the way that you sing it, the way you perform it, I see it as who's a B fifty two singer? Fred Schnyder. Yes, in my mind, in my head, that's the way that you are. Is that what you're going for? It's kind
of going for an electric six trip? Where are you? Yeah? Well, in my in the way that I hear it, I hear of the B fifty two's and the whole idea of the Hot Mop in my hand that you say at the end, I I have this this feeling that it should be more ethereal than that, and it should be the hot Hot Mop. In my mind, it doesn't rhyme, It doesn't rhyme. It doesn't matter. Okay, And this bothers This has been bothering you for months that when I hear that line, I think of the hot mop in my mind,
and I cannot both of you stop smoking marijuana. This is why we're Danny and I talk and we have to kick you out. Of twelve angry men, you're making it no I disagree. We are now eleven less angry man, eleven unhappy dudes. Well, I don't know music because he bought the website, so we have to We're kicking him out with revamp it a little. All right, Well, decide for him sing along at home whatever you want. Take a tar part, okay, catch just making sure what other
change is. He's got a whole page of notes. We made an awful mess, Acquiesced, Sorry about your fancy dress. Your guy better grab a hot mopet the hot moto clean it all up with trusty mob is hand rhin wearing nothing. See yeah, okay, care hot mop in my mon leave the one point seven rating sauce. Look all right, when's the last time you mopped with your mind? You mop with your hands, You hold the stick and you swab the little wig on the ground A little little yarn wig
and take it to a whole other level. Man. He did just go palms up, like, yeah, exactly last time. Yeah, you can't off with your mind. All right, you've left. Uh. I don't know how many we got. JJ's been putting them together a lot. She nodded at me, as if to say, a lot fire in. I'm Johnny Hecker. I'm calling you because I heard you guys were having a little bit of a laugh about the writing that's on my towel. And I totally get that. It's a little weird at first, but it is also serious.
It's about my dietary restrictions. The front side says I eat ass, but the backside says, and I'm allergic to nuts. I also wanted to invite you guys to a party that I'm having. It's a pot look, but it's them. There's a little bit of a twist. It's based on the movie Human Centipede. So just bring yourself and you brought your dish, and don't worry about the white carpet. Oh my god, you did this.
I'm sorry. This is like when I got in trouble for farting in French class and the principal called my mom in and my mom blamed my dad what because he farted at home? And I was taught that fartan's funny. You don't need to be taught that, right, so I didn't get in trouble for farting and mister Gabbar's French class. Let me tell you something, the first time, Malcolm was old enough to understand what was happening. He didn't need me to say. By the way, what you just did is
hilarious. He just started laughing. It's instinct. But you brought up this situation that led to that talkback, So it's not his fault, it's yours. What do you want from me? Dude? That literally just made me a gag. I was I almost lost it right there. Really, what do you approved? I don't want to talk about it anymore. What do I want from you? I want you to have a great weekend. Thank
you. Here's hot mop number two. Man to me, it's crazy to hear a bunch of grown men talk about and never seeing a gun, holding a gun or nothing. Obviously they're from another country. They got a different situation over there. But man, if my family's getting together, they're bringing two or three guns with them. We shoot skeied almost every weekend. Uh, crack some coal ones fire at the grill. Man, it'd be crazy not to have that in my life. Man. We've been doing that ever
since I was a little kid. I wouldn't have it any other way. It's a cultural thing, man. I grew up with it too. Look, everybody at his house doesn't wear union jack shorts like they do over there. Yeah, it doesn't seem weird to them. Look, I'm not gun man whatever. But you say we can sit like down by a lake, drink some beer and shoot. I don't know that target of those bottles way over there, and what gamble on it? I don't know. Do we
gamble or would you do it for fun? That sounds awesome. That's fun, especially when you got somebody in the family like that. It's way into it and they have a pretty big arsenal like Uncle Ken. Not uncommon after Christmas presents were opened in the time between present time and time to eat Uncle Ken, my dad Phil Fell and me to roll down to the Brassis Creek the Brasses River banks and just shoot crap for two hours. Eh. That sounds fun. Here, try this thirty o six. Here try this forty
five. I'm seven over that clacking Springfield nineteen eleven that basically kicked so hard it hits me in the top of the head. But yeah, that was normal life out there. Man. Can you crack your shoulder or something with a shotgun? Yeah? I was ski shooting with a shotgun and I didn't know that I was supposed to hold it firmly against my shoulder. I got
a little excited and extended my arms to get a little closer. You want to make sure he hit that thing to the clay and then yeah, and there's a picture of me doing the oha old Yeah, exactly was it you or me that got the cut above the eye with a rifle? Your eye too close to the scope and the kickbait? I think that was me too, Is that it Uncle Marvin's Yeah, we're done with guns, liquor, guns and holidays. It's a perfect blend. SIROI. You just got out
metal batted by your brit friends. That was awesome. I didn catch it, did you? Sam went off on one quick one. Is he yeah? He can. He can get a nice RPM cranked up. Those of us in the business respect. I guess when you really crank it up, when you're at the level that you live at. Yeah, you respect many don't eat you there, notice it all right, may have to pull Sam
metal Beat and I am so freaking stoked for the beast. It is the sole release party tonight and is going to be epic and emotional and it's going to be amazing. I will see you there, dingo oh, I love that we'll be there. It's tonight. It's Alamo Draft House, Cedars location.
You can try to get tickets. I don't know if tickets to the actual shows are still available, but again before the shows, between the seven o'clock and nine o'clock showing and after the nine o'clock showing, drinking DJ's party with all the bastards of Soul. We're gonna make it fun. Yeah, it's gonna be some heavy moments, but definitely intersected by some good memories and
you know, laughter and friends and fellowship and all that stuff. Yeah wait, yeah, so come even again, even if you can't get tickets, just come drink at the sweet Ass Bar at Alamode or a T shirt or something. Yeah, get some merch merch. Maybe cash will be selling some baseball cards out of there, or some soap. Yeah, leftover soap that
he wouldn't give away earlier that he's hoarding. Soap is expensive almost Thanksgiving, and cash is in the studio, So you guys need to do Chef X, chef X, chef X, chef X. I don't is he here? It's a busy time for chef X. Well, clearly the season of holiday. Uh huh. He's preparing a glorious menu as we speak. I'm sure, what are we six days away from Thanksgiving? He's definitely he's warming up bowls right now because they gotta be hot come Thanksgiving morning. Chef X
is balls deep in some yams. I would like to I would be curious just to you know how Chef X would make a sweet potato casse role if you were here, if he was here, well, if we were only that luck, he would need to purchase a large potato bag and a blade. What's the and the lines up the blade for bowls in a circular formation. He puts the potatoes in the middle of the hottest of bowls and then chefs, why are the bulls in a circle? And then you gotta go
blade sharp side down mm hmm. And it's a potato party. There you go. You can find the recipe online. What's not to get printable version? What temperatures? The what is the oven at five thousand for how long? A five thousand three seconds? That would work? I think if you're in a rush Thanksgiving, the rush, if you're behind, chef Ax does a lot of sides, fifty sides fifty plus sidsad you don't have enough ovens. Look, chef Bec's what he gave is full Thanksgiving report. It was
so great. I think Chefac's is paranoid that he could never replicate the success of Chefax's Thanksgiving tips. You know what to do. Plus, we do fresh things here. We don't have to regurgitate the same old bits over and over. So let's do this. Let's do this. Why'd we bring cash in? Remember their kids? You guys like circa the orphanage? Right? Remember that? Remember when you like this. Let's let's let's uh closer to
Christmas. The traditional Christmas countdown to crimo uh seven fishes dinner. We'll have chef X. That's a classic, right right, yes, oh yeah, I mean many families celebrate with the seven fishes and the seven dishes with seven uneaten fish dessert. Yeah, so we'll have We'll have chef X there. We'll talk about that. Billions of types of fish. That's a good point, Mike, speaking of food. Speaking of the fish boys, Ben Skim, Steve Christina who wear whistle Guys Skin is no longer with us. Oh
again, is there an email? He has turned his back on the listener one more time? Damn it really should they should be used to that by now, right, Yeah, and uh, he's just decided not to come in. We were like, hey, what time you're gonna get here. He's like, I don't care about the listener anymore. That is what he said. Yeah, he aggressive some bubble water too. I think that kind of rally. You gotta be careful with bubble water. He burned himself the
hottest water you can find, bubble water. Is it true that Serroy, that you were farting in mister Gar's French class? Uh? Yeah, mister Gabbar didn't find as funny as I did when I cleared out French and sixth grade made his dad take the heat for it. No, I was shocked, Yeah, I was shocked. Miss Duffy called called in Mom. I think called in dad too. Oh yeah, yes, called in Mom and Dad and me, and I'm like, this is it. I'm done.
Finally crossed the line, and she, miss Duffy, alerted them to my transgressions, and I think my dad said, you call me all the way in here. He's like I was. I was putting rivets in a fifty foot catamaran and I got a lake in a race in Michigan next weekend, and you called me all the way way in here because my kid farted in French class. And I'm like, oh my god, he's got my back. That never happens, yep. And did you get in trouble? No,
not really, because they started arguing. Then Mom started arguing with Dad and like this is serious, and Miss Duffy, this is serious. And my Dad's like, I'm leaving, and I'm like I'm leaving too. I'm a dad, I'm going to English. Let's go fart. I'm going to Civics. Let's go fart, Dad, let's part in the parking lot.
