This is the Downbeat, heard weekdays six to ten am right here on ninety seven to one. The Free k T will be back next Wednesday. He's

gone to New York for a little music trip. I'm taking some live musical action featuring the Dave Matthews Band. We got other stuff, really fun stuff coming up here as well, not to mention picks with Glenn's in just about thirty minutes. Yeah, Glenn, and we got a cool, fun celebrity that people are going to really enjoy. Elle was the letter. We have

a world famous rap god joining. We also have an exemplary performed mins by my young two and a half year old Malcolm and his incredibly controversial picks this week. One of them. You guys are gonna be like, dude, really okay, he's a little savants, he's too good. Well, I think he dropped well, you know what, I think he he went five hundred last week. He he and you and myself missed on the Cowboys. Yeah, we took the Giants. I want to go for two again.

I think it's oh my god, really think it's third week in a row. Yeah, did you go for two or no? No, don't look like he like it's a dumb question. I would have went to two and oh if the Browns, oh yeah, didn't have that stupid comeback that was so dumb. Come on, yeah, real nice. So mad I fell victim one of those last second jobs too, of which there were six I think by the end of play. But Malki's colts pulled it out last week, so he ended up good for him one in one. So we'll see

what he's got in store for us today. But that's super fun. Dingo's Morning News at eight thirty. Man, I have some stories that are so juicy. We've got students teacher sex, We've got man lost in Big Bend for an entire day and almost dies, and an incredibly wildly detailed tale of murder right here in our own McKinney, Texas. So much good stuff, But right now it is time to bring you this brought to you by Parker University. That's right. You hear it every day usually hosted by one Katherine

Turner, but today Kathleen Kathleen Turner today Michelle. Yeah, the most devious Boston and Neilia City, but today more than capably hosted by our good friend Michelle Siroy. Thank you, Nicky, take it away with the scuttle. But the most devious bastard in New City is not here. So I got you today with the thing that I teased, And don't worry, it's very loosely F one related. But because everyone's going crazy up in Vegas right for

this thing. The world has their eyes on Vegas. Everybody's freaking out. There's a lot of people going to town. Ticket prices plumbing. By the way, why is that the weather? If they were overvalued at first and people were freaking out to get their hand, I mean, dude, basically, just wait, everyone, always just wait for every ticket. Steady hand, steady hand, Annie, exactly, always the steady hand, always steady

hand. Don't panic. I think panic. I think for tonight's FP one that's Free Practice one, which I think is at eight thirty local time. It's hard to tell because the grids always show these times of the world. I think it's at eight thirty tonight, which is our first look cars on

track, which I'm psyched for. I'm gonna watch it tonight. Eight months ago the tickets were nine hundred bucks and now they're like a hundred twenty to get in get in price, So yeah, the prices were coming down a lot, but it's still going to be a show a circus to keep an eye on this weekend if you care. If one question, yeah, come

on, what goes on in the practice round? Are you all cars are going to be on the track at the same time and they're just being real careful and not yes, okay, they're not racing, They're just I mean, they're they're getting familiar with the track. They're seeing this track for the

first time. This is actual practice, and a lot of tracks where you know that there've been staples of the circuit forever, they are just kind of trying stuff out on the car and testing the settings and that sort of thing. But in this case and any first time track, they are practicing where to turn, where their breaking zones are. When the latest they can break

going into corners is I mean, yeah, they are practicing. Do these guys use simulators leading up to a track, Yeah, they've never driven on before. Simulators are huge in this. Wow, that's so cool. Yeah, and they're very accurate and they do a lot of sim work. And that's how the guy that we had on a few weeks back got into the sport. Was he was basically racing on simulators and said, you know what, I'm going to get in an actual car and see how I do.

And he's actually really good. Yeah, exactly crazy. This thing has I don't know, it's the longest straight away and like F one history, and I think we'll have our my buddy Sam Sage on. It's in the Late Breaking podcast Live from London tomorrow, mainly because he's just a funny man, but also to kick around a little bit of F one as Like I said, I'm a hype for this race. We can ask him. But this

has a it's nearly a two mile straight away right down the strip. Wow, like the entire damn main strip one point seven one point eight mile. I got to see when we watched the Netflix Cup a couple of nights ago, when you had professional golfers teamed up in some type of matchy scrambly play with F one drivers. There's some good overview shots right around the strip, that kind of I don't know if you got to see the entire track. No, you've got a good kind of idea of where it is, just

in proximity to everything that's on that strip. Yeah, I mean, wow, what an ambitious undertaking. Oh they to put a damn f one track there. They hate it. The residents like losing their minds. And as you know, they cut down those trees in front of the Bolagio Fountain that have been there for twenty years. Oh wow, did they know that? I thought we talked about They cut them all down to put grand stands up, like people are mad, and I get it, but I don't live

in Vegas. I want to see wild ass spectacle and I don't know if it'll disappoint, but I'm going to be locked in the whole damn time. I cannot wait. So the first view of the track is tonight practice tomorrow, late night, and that's the best part. I'm gonna be. Christina's fired up for this too. We're going to be drinking, partying and watching this all night Friday night after your big event at Almo Draft House Theaters.

Bastard of the Silver Live release party, which everyone should go to seven o'clock shows the lat's tickets available. But Saturday night we're going to be rocking watching all this and it's gonna be wild. But anyway, there's all sorts of parties and pr events and stuff going on in Vegas, more than you'd even

imagine. And uh, there are opportunities for these drivers, including the world famous Chicken Ranch Jesus, which just elbows they're hot buns into the news every chance they get when anything happens in Vegas, and they are promising to make the driver's trip sixty miles west of Vegas to where it is free sex for any and all drivers on the F one grid And guess what, non't go

ahead? No, no, no, and fifty off for fans, which is far more likely to get some action than Lando Noris zipping out sixty miles. To note to Chicken Ranch, if you're an F one driver, your life is about free sex. Your life, that's all it is. If you're a hot, exotic probably European F one driver, multi millionaire in they're early to mid twenties, they're all just handsome, yeah, they really,

all of them. It's kind of like soccer. I don't know why the hell they're all well, because they have to be lean to be en f one driver. Like, what would it take for who was the is it signs yeah, Carlos, Carlos signs Ferrari River, Ferrari driver. What would have to what glitch would have to occur in his brain for him to say, you know what, I really want to get laid tonight? Options?

What are they? You know what? I'm going to drive sixty miles in the desert to this beaten down shack to have a free shag with Air Force Amy. Hell, yeah, no, Well, the two main ones in question are Addison Gray and Alice Little TMZ reported that they offered their services as they're excited about the racers coming to town. One hundred percent complimentary coitus. It's gross, It's real gross. You and I are scumbaggs. But nothing

really sounds creepier than the Chicken Ranch to me. But I went on their I'm on their website, right of course you are. Of course I don't. I didn't know how this works. They're called you just click bookmarks and yeah, right there page. It's so gross. They're called courtisans, is what they call their workers. That sounds like one of your trap doors. It's the Corsicans or ten percent discount all F one fans this weekend. I

thought that's for them. I'm offering it's roy trapdoors and eight percent off. It's all F one fans for your trap door installations this weekend. Only. They have as a courtesan. I don't know, I've never heard that word, but that's what they call their hose. They have a tab ladies here right now with like a flashing red here. Now, dude, everything about it is so creepy. I hate to say. The first one on their

list, though, is Katrina Ray. Not to be confused with my sweet, My sweet you are you sure that she's gonna be trust by this? Looking at this image of Katrina Ray, this is not her? Okay? Would you rather spend a fifty discounted off hour with Nyla Driver or Carolina Kiss? Okay, Danny, I'm gonna go make your choice, all right. There's a right and wrong choice here, Mike. Look as a credit to the Chicken Ranch brothel. I will admit that they all look like fine choices.

Okay, Air Force Amy is not work this weekend. You can't go wrong. You mean nyla driver A fine choice. Okay, a fine choice. But I don't know how they weasel their way into Uh it's it's like the porn sites when they release porn searches by state, you know or whatever. They just know idiots like us have to talk about it. Yep, thereby giving them publicity. They're smart. Yeah, they're smart, and you know what, they're probably not spending a lot of money on this marketing.

NOMS Sports reported, Yeah, they probably called them. Yeah, exactly what we're gonna do. Will owe you a favor, you owe us a favor. However this works, We'll let you know when a celebrity stumbles into the chicken ranch if you give us a little bit of pub on this f one discount we have. Yeah, it's gonna be a lot of fans looking to get buy one, get one free at the ranch with nyla driver. She's spoken for. She'll be the only driver there. She will be the only

driver there. We got we found out who's hosting the oscars and even press play. JJ didn't know this when I when I teased it. She's too busy watching movies, not reading about it. It's very early is it? Is it early? Yeah? When they don't they haven't even I mean the Golden Globes is the first award show of the season and they haven't even said anything about those. So that's this. That's why is it a March and moved it? Because when during you know COVID, so it hasn't really gone

back to I think it was February. It used to be February. I think it's in March now. Well, they're playing it's safe, Okay, I guess March. This man or woman done it before? Yes? Is it Kimmel? Yes, okay, it is. Jimmy Kimmel once again returns as host of the Oscars, second time in a row and fourth overall. That the Academy of Motion Pictures and Science has selected him to leave the show, is it. I think his wife is like the executive producer. Yeah,

she's a writer too. I didn't know that really for I think the second year in a row now or something like that. His wife is very involved her hands on. I don't know she selects the damn host. But yeah, Jimmy Kimmel is gonna be your Oscar host. I mean he'll do what Jimmy Kimmel does and it'll be great. Yeah. Yeah. We had a I guess significant celebrity death of someone I've never heard of, but whose

work you definitely have seen. The man's name. I'm so excited that you're bringing this dude to the air because I think this is this world of what this guy does and other artists that are like him. I think is I think it's as important as any painting in the Sistine Chapel when it comes to relevance in history and pop culture. I truly do modern last one hundred years. Yeah, definitely, no doubt. Roger Carl Castel passed away at ninety two in Woosta County, Wista. In all of America, is there a

weirder pronunciation of how it is spelled? What Worcester is, what it looks like it should be? Yeah, wos and if you're a native, you call it with the really yeah, Woosta County. He the iconic artist with over a thousand illustrations. Many of the more famous ones are the movie posters that have been part of our lives for a very long time. He was the artist behind both Jaws and The Empire Strikes Back Jaws. I mean,

arguably the most well known greatest movie poster of all time. When you think of the term movie poster, yeah, you know, if you're of a certain age, that is that's the first one that pops into your head. It's the first one that I remember noticing as a little kid. And it's just such a tribute to that dude. Just say Jaws movie poster and most people here in this picture. Yeah, could trying to draw it? Should

we try to draw it? No? Yes, you're in the break, you're a good Let's see what you I want to know what your interpretation looks. Can you picture of JJ Yeah? I can't. What is it? Describe the poster? It's a shark coming out of the water with a white girl swimming about to get eight. There you go, I've never noticed the race of the girl. When did Jaws come out about to get You said we wouldn't be in the water. That's exactly right. You can say it

that we can't. That's the joke. You said, a white girl about to get eight, about to get eight. But the decision to make the shark as big as it is on the movie poster, you know, it's like a caricature size, like even you know, the shark's not that big, but just heading straight up. I don't know. It's just like an image that we've all known for so long. I've never really looked at it.

Last night when I read this guy died the artist behind this, I really looked at it differently and just it's very simple, Yeah, so minimalist. Yes, yes, it's very memorable. Yeah. And sometimes the simplest things, I agree. And the way to go the red block letters, big bold block letters of a one word titled movie Jaws, and that's all it is. And the shark is something. The shark has the crooked teeth, huh. The shark is pure evil and you can barely see the eyes

on the sides as he and the bubbles coming out of his mouth. He is just screaming upward at this woman. The shark is a sweet, innocent woman. The shark is so big in size comparison to the woman it would be the equivalent of us eating a bite of a sushi roll, a single bite of sushi roll. This dude also did the Empire Strikes Back movie poster.

I was reading about him this morning, and he drew his inspiration for the Empire poster from the Gone with the Wind poster, and I think you can kind of a be them, like put them next to each other and it's like, whoa you sure did, dude? Yeah, the kind of the collagi Yeah, and with the leaning leaning down kiss maneuver. So I looked up some lists, and both of those are on most lists of most iconic movie posters of all time. I have a bunch of but Denny come

to mind for y'all. And I know different generations. I have some modern ones that I think were very impactful last twenty years or so. Yeah, let's hear them. Well, let me agree me. I think there's a lot of horror that that probably pop out, you know, like Halloween, Friday the thirteenth Street, those were pretty popular. Beetlejuice. I don't know why that came to my mind, but I didn't see that one, and I don't instantly picture it Friday thirteenth. I do, though, with the

forest behind it and the hockey mask. Yeah, Gone with the Wind is on most lists. Sure, and even a movie that I think I watched and was bored out of my mind with, but I know it's probably really good. I can picture that that movie poster immediately rate is a lost arc. It's a great lot with a smiling Indie cracking the whip and kind of the artistic characters behind him. Psycho h list. I don't I don't have it on cause again, like I as much as I pick, I can't

picture what it is instantly think that's most of the problem. How about Godfather, Yeah, of course with the the puppeteer hand whatever you call the top part of a marionette. I suppose a little bracket thing, yeah, kind of manipulating the letters. And Godfather it's a great one. Saw No, I just a very simplistic poster too, but well a lot of with the hand drag. I think it's like with the hand drag, right, and it's just got saw yeah it uh, it's not all I mean, I

don't know. I just looked at one or two lists and you're doing mostly horror, and I don't know if these were more like horror is like just a simple you know genre to peak. Another good one, Silence of the Lambs with oh the butterfly on the mouth exactly exactly moth maybe, but whatever over the mouth of I guess is that Jodie Foster's face here's one that I don't think any would think of that I you will picture I think instantly. It's airplane. Of course, the airplane twisted in a knot. That's a

great one. Like Ballsy is perfect. It's an airplane tied not. And speaking of the Jaws tie in there the opening scene of the Jaws music and the clouds and the the fin or what the plane cutting through. The one that's more of a logo but just iconic was the original Jurassic Park too, because they kind of created their logo and that fit well. A couple more modern ones. Pulp fiction was great because it essentially is that magazine cover that

fits so well with it. The matrix was pretty iconic. Forty year old Virgin Oh, where he's just kind of the Sears portrait studio of him, kind of that smiling photo of striped shirt or whatever it is is the shining on there. No, that's a really good one. But I saw that on a I saw it on some yes, And that's Jack Nicholson looking to the door. Yes, that was on a couple through the Johnny That's story and American Beauty was on some yeah with the Rose Rose the Titanic and the

Girl's Belly. Yes, Titanic was on some as well. Okay, it's a lost art man. I don't know if it's lost, But I watched real quick, I watched a documentary and it's called Hypnosis, and it's about the art duo these two guys that became friends in college over in London, and they revolutionized the sixties and seventies and revolutionized the the art form of album art. And it's a documentary on Netflix. Oh I think I'm so damn good. Yeah. I mean they've done everybody from Led Zeppelin to Pink Floyd

and everyone in between. And the second you see the covers, you're they're so identifiable. Those guys took all of the chances and started with absolutely nothing until they were the most expensive art team to do album artwork for a decade basically, and ended up on the other end of it, even more important than movie posters. I think maybe maybe because you have them in your home, they're basically a poor man's Picasso. You you've got them and they're in

your your record collection and there's your artwork. You know, it's it's everywhere And is the album? Yeah? Is the album? Let me do birthdays real quick because I got nowhere else to shove them.
