Now every song title today, the return you have had December in it. This last one it's from a band, Mike, Yeah, the Decembers, I get it, the Decembrists, not the Decembers. Do you like the Decembrists? Yes, Even though they're most likely to win an award for a band that wants to sing about a mariner, they have some hit. They have a hit. I know I would. Yeah, but if you knew down by the Water O Valencia was their first kind of indie rock crossover trick.
Cool man, this sounds cool right. This is the last segment of the day, last segment of the week, last segment with no Danny Bayless at least for all the next week.

Status of the death song? I know that's probably down on your list, But when
does that happen? And that happens next week? Now I have a tradition, what a week for you? You're out a plus mine the scuttle butt. Next week will also be twenty twenty three Year in review. I want to take a look at the top stories of the year because you need to know, you need to remember we had this short news cycle life or onto the next thing, on to the next thing, on to the next thing. Wait, go to January. Let's take a look what happened then?
Do you remember on that? And then what has happened since then? What's transpired? Could deep segments come in next week? Depth? Now the song of the year. Interesting. I've got a tradition where I alternate. One year, I will do a pre produced next year, I'll do it acoustically live. You mean the Death the songs. Yeah, those are people who died. Died. Yeah. Last year I was pre produced, you know, did it warn So this year I'll be doing an acoustically live and studio
oh live, yeah, singing. Yeah, because it's the Yeah, every odd year I do an acoustic live edition. You have this rigidity that no one else is really even aware of or cares about. But you stick to it. I stick to these things like that, these traditions. Are you shunning my uh we all died in a metal submarine idea? Because I think it's the cord structure. It's too hard get Danna to play the guitar. No, you love playing guitar too. Yeah, it's gonna be a hell
of a week. He gets to play guitar for money. It's gonna be a hell of a week next week. JJ. Any update on press play JJ's top ten movies of the year. You don't have to wait what. I got a few movies coming. I got Wonka, got The Color Purple. They're all coming in December. When do you need this list? Well, I don't know. Is that I think we should do it the week after. Oh I'm going that week? Damn it? Fine? Are you back for two days? But yeah, I'm back for Monday and Tuesday,
the eighteenth and nineteen. Let's do it that day because I will. Also, I do this every year two I like to you'll allow it. You may not care. I usually do my top ten songs of the year, like oh that people released, that's fine, and top ten TV shows of the year. Really yeah, Okay, that's the eighteenth and nineteenth. I'm just trying to work. It's where you guys don't burn anything easy and good
that week that I'm gone, we won't. And I just try to condense all the of KT's work and at the time when I'm here, and then all right, eighth we will give you eighteenth or nineteenth December eighteenth or nineteenth? Okay? Did I give you enough time to watch Wonka? Yeah? Because I think Walka's out the fifteenth. What do you see Wonka? Same fifteenth? Not sure yet except for walker all right, JJ's top ten movies
yere and people love them. Yeah, let's go to No intros. I got a lot of talkbacks, and I think we should just get to it. Okay, right, and we're going about to transport out to Pluckers in plano It' stuff to Ben Skin, Christina and Steve. We'll do that in about five minutes. So talkbacks are coming as I loaded them into my Adobe Audition software on your home with the Dallas Mavericks O k eg LFM and I will play now the audio that you've coveted. I agree with Mikey on the
weekly pick for the Cowboys. I used to watch the games. I still watch the games, but I used to watch and look for the weird predictions you guys were initially making earlier in the year, and now they're all especially Danny's, and also stupid that I don't even enjoy the segment anymore. I'd rather be something realistic that might happen. It's still kind of crazy. Then somebody's getting splitted in the face with a piece of pizza that was mine,
by the way, Okay, I appreciate that honesty. Yeah, and look at us, will will are stuff, you know, we'll are some criticism, yeah, just one, though the rest of them will be very complimentary. Yeah, I think the ship has sailed this year. We're going to continue the spiral, but we among the many things we need to reassess here
at ninety seven and the freak toward the end of the year. Here as we get cranked up for a big twenty twenty four, the year of the Freak, twenty twenty four, we'll reassess how we handle the game predictions, because it's something I wonder about. He's right, well, maybe we'll reassess him for the playoffs because we like football and it's fun to make like off the wall like difficult predictions and get a point for him. But now we'll
works up everything. Yeah, you know the way the Cowboy game was going last pot of woke up and you told me they lost, I'd have been like, yeah, but they won. So cool car wash? Oh can I knew the Malcolm bit was on with the yeah cool car wash. Yeah, I'm gonna exclaim car wash as an affirmative thing. I yell a lot of skydiving talkbacks today. Good, Hey, what's going on? This is Doug the Ant, one of the many survivors of the Fall of Myrtle.
It was a crazy day nineteen ninety nine, whole bunch of craziness lost my whole bunch of family, you know, to the fall of myrtle to holiday. Yeah, we bit the hell out of that bitch. We saved the life and look at her now she's dead. What are you gonna do? How? What are you gonna do? Amazing lightning reset nineteen to nine.
A woman with skydiving her parishes didn't really work. She fell into a giant ant pile, and the two hundred ant bytes that she sustained while she was in a coma essentially got her adrenaline up to a point that they helped her survive. Another avid skydiver said looking for a large group of trees is a good option if you are plummeting to a death due to malfunction of your parachute. I said, a slope side of a hill is a good option around
here, not a viable one. Large branches trees increase those odds by fractions of percent, which is all we're looking for. We may have an answer to one of Danny's predictions. Mind okay, heyl I'm Carrissa Thompson and I'm calling because I had a run in with one of your seat or coworkers. As I was leaving work to get into my uber last night, he told me that he was the driver the company sent. But I thought that was weird because he looked more like a poor man's Kurt Cobain and he was driving
a heavily bond of nineteen ninety two miles in THEIATA. I'm glad I got it anyway. He turned up to be such a sweetheart. Even said that he doesn't mind that I make up stories because he's used to working with a guy who's a known liar. Fabulous, Thank you, Chrissa, Thank you Chrissa. That point is still TBD. Yep, yeah, good morning to you. I'm not sure if you're aware of this, but the Dallas Mavericks game tonight is the Trinity River Blues Night for the Dallas Mavericks. They're doing
a party in the Plaza from four pm to six pm. Early start for the game against Mint Just tonight is six thirty, followed by a Leon Bridges concert in American Airlines Center forty five minutes after the last buzzer. Your ticket to the game gets you to the concert. Hope to see all their Trinity River Blues Dallas Mavericks two nights. All right, I don't think that works
the Masks. I forgot Leon Bridges concert tonight after the Lambs game. Okay, Actually that was good info he provided, because I saw the promo for it. I didn't know what that meant. If there was a concert before party in the plaza, what it all meant? So is that, to your knowledge, accurate forty five minutes after the final Yes, buzzer. Probably just a Leon Bridges concert for a MAVs game. What a good two for one combo. Need to go right now by thirty minute a thirty dollars.
You go to MAVs dot com get your tickets, but you can go you know, on second hand sites too, and get cheap MAVs tickets for upper deck. It's excellent. It's just some quickis your area. Good morning, down beat boys, We all know that six was afraid. It's not hold on, hold on, hold on, sorry buddy. Yeah, hey, good morning down beat. I remember a time Kevin got really man. I think it was him and his brother playing golf and his brother hit somebody.
They went over there to check on the guy, and the guy's buddy was acting like a prick and then Kevin told the dude that his D smelled weird. Also, I would never fight you, kevi yo, but I wanted to yesterday I heard you crack a beer on the air. All right, man, love you guys, Bye, I love you. That's my If anyone ever gets amped up, what you do is you just aggressively tell them
that their D smells weird. Let's remove and they'll be like huh. And these people are so selfish they just think they get in their own head. About is my penis sneak. Let's squat to the pluckers and plane now with Ben Skin, Christina and Steve. Hello, Hello, Hello, Hello, checking one two? We have you? Do you have us? Check one two? We have you check check one two? We hear you. Do you guys have a follow up? Just have them? I don't have them.
Do you guys have a follow up on the conversation? I just wrote down to grab what you just said right before mixing. Oh okay, I don't know if I love that. Christina, did you pull and send me the Kevin telling us why he'd be a great actor? I did? Okay, forward it back to you if that's easily available. Would you mind I looked through my email, I couldn't find it. I don't I don't remember
this, Yeah you do remember. It's just I just think that should be on the list of best moments of the year because it's one of the funniest things I've ever witnessed. Not everything can make the cut, and as I tally it up right now, boy, we are in a race. I'm telling you, number fifty on the top fifty clips of the year is about it, seventy votes or whatever. And then I've got four at sixty nine,
five at sixty eight. I mean, dude, it is a close race to what's going to make the cut come Monday, which is one of my favorite days. What's the deadline? Sunday at noon is when the voting will stop high noon Sunday. What It is such an incredible task for you to take on to put that together. But I was sitting there going through the list, and I didn't know what a lot of it was good. It was part of the half assed nature of the task. Then well,
some of them do speak for themselves, like Julie Peter Pants. But uh, you know, that was an amazing moment. You know, one of my favorite I remember the first guy that climbed Mount Everest, that got halfway up and said, well, I think we're good here. One of my favorite clips of the year is Ben's Lunch Problem, which is really longer than that bends up with a side of Ben's family having to live under the bridge.
That was something we did on the fan. No it's not. Oh, but you know, Ben's Lunch Problem needs to make the top fifty, and I think it will based on alerts out on the standings. But yeah, some of these I make you work for it. A lot of people too, They year for it. And Jeff texted me too, He's like, where's the links to the clips, Kevin? And I'm like, no, we're trying to drive people to listen to us on the radio. We
have to play the clips on the air. I'm not going to give you the clips to vote for them, which is why after we've crowned a Winter, Kevin will then go back and gather all the clips and post them for everybody over the holidays. Nope, the segments will just be able to listen to you in order. What about this? If there's one that is getting no love at all, could you explain what it is? A little bit more because maybe it's not getting votes because no one knows what it is.
Okay, I like that. What's in dead last Ben and Skin dad jokes? Maybe it should have been a forty nine clip bracket. You hear them say Ben's dead jokes, Ben and Skin dad jokes. Okay, Ben is in last place and seemingly won't just one from Ben and one from Skin seemingly won't make the finals. I'd like to rally behind that day promoting that coming up today at eleven o five, eleven thirty five, twelve oh five, twelve thirty five, and one oh five, Ben in Skins Dad Jokes gets
replayed. Any gap you have at the end of a segment where you don't have a live spot, do a live spot just for the Benskin dad joke thing on Kat's list. We just do a full minute promoting just that and see if we can get it pumped up the top. I don't beat singing Pumpkin not getting a lot of down towards the bottom. I don't love that really. Worre's Jazz Bush, Jazz Bush, you know it's good drop. I'm searching, I'm searching for it. I don't see it. Do you
have a clip, Christina or is that? Oh? No, I don't know, for I was trying to find it. I actually don't. No one has that. There's just too much audio to keep up with that number fifty one This year he didn't make the list because I'm not a selfish individual. Come man, I've heard of your selfish lover. I guess, Puckers, how many wings they got back there? No, we need to find out how many wings they got back there. I can't see any from here.
They may not have any today. Bring that game back during your show some day. That was a fun one and people probably forgot whatever the number was last time. I certainly did. Yeah. Well, Zach's tex Texans now saying he needs you guys to come join us out here at Pluckers and Plano. So we'll see you guys out here. We'll play that game with you guys in person. Screenshot that text and send it to me immediately. Do that right now before we get off there. It's magic, Mike sticking?
Is that? I don't know? Yes, a couple of talk Mike and I are we gonna go see Leon Bridges tonight. That kick ass? And then yeah, good whatever you want, Christina, the world is yours, okay. When you hang out with me, you get great things. So is it? Are the official nicknames Kevy oh Is Sticking his Magic, Mike Sticking, and Danny the Boner Bayless. Danny's not here to defend himself, so I think I think they are kind of I don't think even if
he was here, Boner Bayless has the energy to defend the town. Fine, he's Charrissa Thompson right now. Though, you know, Magic Magic Mike better than Black Knight. True. Black Knight Tru was way cooler. It's amazing, and it's got some legs. I don't know that's how this works, you guys decide. I don't care, all right, you guys leave, okay, man Skin shows next Pluckers in Plano. Christine and Steve there of course as well. Go see them today. Speakeasy will follow them.
That's off Preston Road there, Pluckers Plano. Very good, Thank you, JJ, Thanks JJ, great weekend. Danny Bayos will join us back on Monday, y'all tell me, guys, there she is. JJ is still coming down from the high the Beyonce movie. Mike, good week, see you Monday gonna be a blast. Everyone, go vote for the thing, vote for the clips that you want to, vote for them all. I don't care. We'll see a Monday morning at six am for the most fun
week in Downbeat history. Next to ninety seven one. The Freak is the Ben's good Show Bye. I don't know if that was good
