00:00Dean Kane. You see this shit?Oh, yeah. I didn't even know who that was until you mentioned that.So he played Superman like 30 years ago.Yeah. And now he's like a Trump cut guy. He's like the new Scott Bayo.Yeah. He kind of looks like Scott Bayo was on steroids. He's like signing up for ice. He's like going to be an ice age.Yeah, I saw that. And his dad's an immigrant. His dad's like a Japanese immigrant.Oh, really? Look at his last name. Dean Kane's last name is Tanaka.Wow. Dean George Tanaka.
00:26So.So he's an immigrant. And then also the irony of that is like,Superman is like the ultimate illegal alien.Yeah.He played an illegal alien, made all the money off of it.I don't know.It's so weird when like actors like cuck out for any politician, but especially Trump.Yeah.
00:40What's wrong with you, dude?Yeah.I don't know anything about him.He's just like a handsome guy.It wasn't even called Superman.It was called Lois and Clark.He wasn't even the first.He wasn't even the first character listed in the show.
00:55Boom.We're here.Andy Frasco's World Saving Podcast.Andy's not here.he's hereyeah he is herewe should yeah we need to put a giantpicture of him there don't we
01:05there's gonna be oneyeah it'll be greatdo you think we'll be able to findany embarrassing pictures of Andyon the worldwide internetI don't knowspeaking of Andy we had a showwe opened for him last week
01:16at the Leavitt Pavilionguess what I found out the other daymy friendwhat's thatI'm not gonna say her namebecause she's a good normal personwith a real jobbut she's on the board there
01:24over there at Leavitt Pavilionokayand she said that wethat wasthe most tickets they've ever had there.Okay.Girllock Bump, still in effect.Here we go, baby.
01:34It's because of you and me.Yeah, it's because of you and me.Frasco's band is getting really good.How much merch did you sell?I sold zero dollars, but I didn't lose any money because I didn't bring any.Yeah.So I think Andy sold about $3 million of merch.But his band's getting pretty wild, huh?
01:51Yeah.This is insane.Remember they used to be like a bar blues band?Yeah.Used to come through Arkansas.Yeah.Didn't he live there for a while?I think so.
02:00I think he lived in Fayetteville, but I'm not sure.Is he the first person in historyto move from L.A. to Arkansas?Phalaetville.Falaetville.Who was that guy?He's a basketball player from Arkansas.Not, fuck.
02:14I can't remember.It doesn't matter.Oh, you're talking about the white Kobe?No, they call it?Oh, no.He is dope, though.He's one of the cold-ass white boys of this year, right?Yeah.
02:22But I'm talking about, I think he's been on the pot.It doesn't really matter.But the show was pretty dope.There was like 7,000 people there.a lot of kidsthere's childrenI'm trying to realizethat Andy might be like
02:35the 12 year old boyslike dreamyeah the band the whole bandyeah but especially Andydid you see when he had thatwere you out therewhen he had that kid on stageor were you backstage
02:45I was backstage singingpiano songsyeah that was funI walked in and you guys were just like singingI think Lion Richie or somethingor maybe that's what got me off the couchthey were singing Dream onand when they got to the high part
02:57Dream onto, I was, I was wanting to take a nap.It was a legendary hang because it was like all the home.Barbara was the one of three.That's the girl indie rock band they opened up.They were, they were actually rip.Yeah.They're getting better.
03:08I always like their songs, but now they're getting better at playing live.Yeah.They had percussion.They had E-Man on the, on the guitar.Cushing.He left early to go to tech, he left that right after the set to go to two.He had a gig?No, he went to Tedeschi trucks.
03:21Oh.It's hard to say.That sounds pretty sick, actually.But, yeah, it was killing.Andy's band is like, it's crazy how much.I mean, I used to kind of thinkthey were just like a fine, you know, like 10 years ago.They were like a fun band, but now they're getting like good.
03:34They're like tight.Yeah.And they're like real songs and it's like kind of hitting with people.But it is funny the way like 12 year old boys just look at him.Oh yeah.They look at him the way out of look like John Coltrane.Yeah.Well, that was like the moment when I was playing with Sean when I got up there.
03:49Yeah.Because there was, uh, I was just kind of, I don't know.I couldn't hear myself.Yeah.Super quick tune.Very loud up there.Yeah.And I was like, oh man, I don't know if I have the energy for this.
03:58And then.And look out in the crowd, there's just, like, two kids, like, 10-year-olds with, like, Oakley sunglot.Like, it's like, they just got off the lake or something.Yeah.And they're both just staring at me and Sean playing together.And they're like, yeah.Can you a man?And I was like, oh, that was like a drug.
04:11I was like, okay.Dude, yeah, it is.Because, like, yeah, the crowd can give you that adrenaline.But it's also like.Especially children.I guess I just haven't.Exactly.There's something about children.
04:19No, anyway.But there's like, it's like kind of wild.Like, because all the shows I've played with him usually are like at Mission Ballroom or whatever, like, or Ogden or something.some shit and it's like so it's 18 or 21 and up yeah so i never get to see i knew that he had a lotof kid fans because he has a lot of parent fans and i was thinking man that is such a cash cowthing because if you get like the 12 real boy to like you and then you have to both parents haveit's like sesame street live basically yeah both drugs and alcohol but man i wonder if he's gonnamaybe like whatever generation that is we'll start drinking again because they grew up going to
04:52andy it's cyclical yeah it's like jen z and then jen z being a bunch of pussies about drinkingYou didn't even reading about this?Yeah, I don't know.I see it.I went to the McGee show.Oh, yeah?They was just, everybody's just like kind of standing there.It was honestly nice.
05:04How sick was that McGee show, though?I was incredible.Like, what, was it sold out, right?Yeah.At where?Fillmore.Fillmore, yeah.So that's like, what, 4,000 people maybe?
05:164K, yeah.So what, they probably did like $87 and sales at the bar.No, that's like one drink there.Oh, that's true.Yeah, the Live Nation, I've noticed the...21 bucks for a single.A single, like, liquor and coke.That's my, like, mission.
05:30The drinks are cheaper there.Yeah.A.G.Just so you guys know, A.G.cheaper drinks than Live Nation.Yeah.21 bucks for a single is wild.Yeah.
05:38That's basically a crime.Yeah.If I go to Yacht Club and I get a tequila soda, it shouldn't be less.It's kind of have, like, grass from Japan.It shouldn't be $7 less than some, like, guy that just got out of prison making me a drink at a live nation venue.Then they're always bothered by it.you yeah right whenever you get a drink at a concert they act like they're doing you a favor whichi guess they are but it's like you're also at work you know i'm gonna tip you how much do you tip it
06:04um like a place like philmore if you got a 20 drink it's hard i got it i just can't not tip 20%yeah sometimes i'll do 15 i'm not gonna lie i mean i ain't mad at you but like my girlfriendit's 22 i got a service industry wife so it's like too that's true and they get she getsmad if i don't yeah same yeah it's weird well maybe mine's a little bit rebellious it dependson their race i'm just kidding yeah so and he ripped i mean he's gonna blow up yeah iI think, I think he's starting, he's starting.He's blown out.Have you seen his eyes?
06:32He's blown out.It was pretty wild.The lightning storm kind of ruined sound check, but that's all right.We didn't need one.We only have two guys in the band.Yeah, we have, yeah, and we only got one guy in the band.We used all their gear, and we had a rehearsal.Like, we literally rehearsed, like, five minutes away for half an hour, like, right before.
06:48Hope that doesn't, you know, doesn't need a lot of rehearsal.We're so sick.We don't have fucking.My favorite part was, uh, me telling Tommy, I was like, you know, I just love this band.It's like, it's, it's easy.the songs are easy and Tommy's looking at me you know playing bass with his feet yeah yeah so easyno he was just like what do you mean it's easy i was like i was like oh yeah sorry i didn't readthe room on that one he's over there like he's contorting his face because he's trying to play a
07:09solo comp and play bass with his feet he's like it's so funny i'm like oh man it's so easy it's soeasy by the way Tommy you get but did you see that thing i posted the other day of me likelooking at them on the organ oh that was good and loving them it's like when you only have topay a guy oh yeah when you pay the guy the same to do twojobs yeah Tommy's goadednot sure he even understands how money worksanyway so you can pretty much pay him whatever you wanteven if he did I don't think you'd care no he's
07:35he's great he's the man but yeah that showwas killing I can't wait toplay again with that band but I don't knowyeah when's the next big showI don't know I'm working on it it's toughright now out there man it's a war zone trying to get jobsDunkirk I don't think Andy's playing Denver for like a yearthat's kind of how that goes huh
07:53yeah usually it's like didn't they just get off touryeah well at the last time he's finishing tourright now that's why we're doing this oh andy and he's not here he's in like they're playing allthese like weird like towns you'd never heard of in like delaware and like long island because they'replaying all these like beach it's like the equivalent of doing like a mountain run but oh okay but onthe beach so more kids mm i don't know more just rich people yeah probably but i don't knowif they're like in bars or like or whatever but they're probably crushing i think they're likemostly sold out i'm sure it's kind of annoying how successful he's getting i know he just keeps
08:26winning. Every time Italk to him, he's got some newsuccess he'd to tell me about. He's probably like you don't seeall the losses, Nick. No. I mean,that's the thing with Andy. He has a lot of, like,haters right now because he's successful and that's howwhite dudes are, other musicians, you know?All they do is like to complain and fucking... That's how you know
08:41you're making it. Yeah, exactly, but likeyou know, they've got the haters and it's likeweird when other musicians talk about him, but it's likeyeah, but he was also poor for 15 years.I mean, he's been doing that again forI don't know, it's like 20 something years.Yeah, like we said, like when you were in Arkansasall, like, how many times did you see him when there were 15 people?
08:58I mean, he would come to Fort Smith, the town I grew up in, at least twice a year.You've got to be poor to playing Fort Smith.I mean, you're not doing well.If you're playing Fort Smith twice a year, you're skipping faith.Fort Wayne.Do you ever go through Fort Wayne?I played there.I mean, I grew up in Fort Wayne, and I played there like three times.
09:12What's the venue there?It's called the Brass Rail.Well, now they have a couple cool venues because Sweetwater bought a couple.Oh, okay.Sweetwater is out of.Yeah, they're based there.Yeah, the guy that's a Fort Wayne.He's a legendary guy.
09:23He does a lot for the community, I guess.but everybody kind of still hates him because he's rich.It's like one of those things.Okay.But he helps people.The show was pretty, I don't know.It was like, it's kind of just surreal, like I was saying, seeing, like, kids freak out about, I don't, I don't know, man.I didn't have that when I was little.
09:41Like, I feel like I didn't go to concerts like that.There wasn't, there wasn't an Andy Frasco when I was 12.No.I mean, the youngest, I mean, I saw Ringo Star.I thought that was.That's pretty cool.But that was, like, my first rock and, like, rock star experience.Right.
09:54But he's, like, so famous.miss and he's like not like it's just a little bit different than frasc frasco's like a surrealthing yeah i love that we're just talking about andy on its own podcast he's not here he'sgonna love it miss you miss you we miss you and we love you no but it was sick thanksandy for having us on the show yada yada yada yada yada you're band's good now now you're always goodbut you're really good now did you did you like the violin edition yeah she's fuckingshe's amazing yeah she'll be everyone down to georgia just went down to georgia just wenthard.

I don't even remember it. And I liked itand you're like, sorry, I was on that. What's a Lou Nesta? It's just a sleep aid. I take themevery now and then. Is it like Xanax? No. No, it's more like, um, what's the, um, the sleep aid that'skind of dangerous people party on it? Ambien. It's kind of like an ambient a little bit. Oh, so it isprescription.Yeah, it's prescription.So is it a barbiturate or Xanax?
10:56No, it's like some GABA inhibitor.I don't really know.But it makes you feel really nice and you'll get on Amazon and.Does it work?Yeah.Like how long does it take you to knock out?I don't, like 30 minutes.You can't drive on it.
11:09No, you can hang out on it.That's the problem.Oh, that's why people like to like drink on it a little bit.Yeah, I don't know about, and I don't know about Lunesta, but Ambien for sure.Oh, yeah, I've heard about.That's what Tiger Woods got, remember Tiger Woods?Oh, yeah.What do you do?
11:21He like got caught cheating and like,He's, like, wrecked his car on it.Yeah.He had a bad thing.He has a problem sleeping, I guess, from all the money.It does help you sleep.I was up watching, like, TikTok.Like, whenever I can't sleep, you know, I just, like, look at the internet.
11:35Oh, it's brutal.It's because you get in, like, a fucking, like, a vortex of where you can't stop watching the TikTok.So, like, they keep you up.Yeah.I get really bad when I start to get tired.I'll put it on my chest, and then I'll just scroll.I'll listen to it.And I'm like, is this long form?
11:52Yeah.It's this long, murder mystery.There's an adI know that guyHe's a music instructorAnd I'm just not looking at anythingAnd that's what I knowYou're like a cyborg
12:01Or it's like a musician complainingAbout Spotify or somethingOr how the music industryI'm like I'm kind ofLike I said earlierI'm sick of the complaining musiciansIt's literally the best timeIt's ever been in history
12:11To be a musician right nowWell yeahI mean it's definitely overYeahI don't think it's ever been amazingBut it's like all the peopleI see complainingIt's all I'll listen to their music
12:19And I'm likeOhYeahMaybe it's not Spotifybut like their take will be like you have to pay to get on stuff now you gotta yeah likeit's kind of always been like that yeah you just have more of an opportunity I mean you canmake an entire record in your yeah room in your yeah basement yeah Daniel Alck is a monster but likealso the platform does kind of help people I don't know but I was watching and I was watching
12:43stuff about movies and I was watching this thing about this new world of world's movie with ice cubein it it's got a zero on rotten tomatoes right now oh wow rotten tomatoes I feel like kind ofI mean, I don't doubt that.I lost a little bit of credibility over the last few years.I feel like they got bought out a little bit.I like the audience score.Audience score is good, yeah.Yeah, so it's getting fat zeros, but actually I kind of am like...
13:03Fat zeros.I'm like more interested in seeing like a movie that gets zero stars than a movie that gets like 30 stars or 30 out of 100.You know what I'm saying?Like, just be so bad that like, I don't know.It's like kind of like how I like Lindpiscuit more than like train.Yeah, true.Although Limbiscuit kind of slaps, but like some of.equivalent of like people do think they suck but they actually rule but like yeah it's like at least
13:26it's something but apparently the whole movie is like just ice cube on zoom on zoom yeah and there'slike a ton of zoom meetings or a new drug like like that's how he is he's just like sitting in acomputer the whole time and it's just like stacked with product placements okay and like there's onepart where like an amazon driver's the only person that can save okay save the situation oh waiti heard about this yeah so it got a zero got a fat fucking big goose egg man it's like a no it threwgot thrown a no-hitter against it.Wow.But imagine, like, I don't know, but I...
13:56Oh, wait, I saw the...Yes.There's a snippet of him.Did you see the snippet of him, like, reading...Basically, reading a script?Mm-mm.It's some, like, backstory where they're, like, zooming into these cameras,and he's legitimately just reading off a script.
14:08He's like, I don't know, you have to watch it.It's very good.I will watch it.It's, like, sounds very...It's very bad acting.The best were people like, oh, Ice Cube's so screwed.His career's over.It's like, he's got $300 million, probably.
14:20He was in...He's in our...we there yet? You know how much money that made?Yeah, he's fine. I don't think at a certain pointyou probably just don't care. He's kind ofone of my favorite. He's sort of like an underrated rapper nowat this point. Like Ice Cube, like,he's like, yeah. He like, it's kind of
14:33because he's like, was so early. Yeah.The people kind of forget about him from NWA, but he waskind of a badass. And then he kind of wentlike to doing like dad movies. He sortof turned into like Chevy Chase for a minute.Whatever that movie, we just wearing the life jacket. What is that one?Are we there yet, right? I don't know. I don't evenknow what that is. It's like from that whole, like Robin Williams
14:51did the RV movie, and then there's, like, the vacation.It's like, there's a bunch of road trip movies like that, like, where the Millers.But, yeah, he, he, like, does that, and then, I don't know.He must have got a bag to do The War of the Worlds.Yeah.But I wonder why they remade that.The Spielberg, I think it's Spielberg, the Tom Cruise one.Oh, yeah.
15:06I don't know.From, like, 06.That was hitting.Yeah, I don't know.I don't know.It's not my bag.No?Yeah.
15:13You're like, I like good movies.My favorite movie is were World War II documentaries.It used to be.I like to watch Germans die.What was I going to talk about that was pissing me off today?Oh, yeah, Dean Kane.You see this shit?Oh, yeah.
15:32I didn't even know who that was until you mentioned that.So he played Superman, like, 30 years ago.Yeah.And now he's like a Trump cut guy.He's like the new Scott Bayo.Yeah.He kind of looks like Scott Bayo.Yeah, he looks like if Scott Bayo was on steroids, like if Scott Bayo was like an alpha.
15:46He's like signing up for ice.He's like going to be an ice agent.Yeah, I saw that.And his dad's an immigrant.I saw that.Everybody's dad, you know what I mean?Well, I know, but like his dad's like a Japanese immigrant.Oh, really?
15:55Look at his last name.His real last name is like something.Yes.My phone's going to die if I hear that.But that's actually makes it even funnier, but, you know, they're not going after.They're not going after Asians, are they?No.They don't, there's a certain kind of immigrant they're going after.
16:08What's his name?Dean Kane.Dean Kane.He's from, so he hasn't done anything.He related to Herman?I don't think so.No.Remember Herman Yell?
16:17Was he the guy that was, no, that was Howard Dean.Howard Dean.And he, like, was, yeah, he won the Iowa primary.That was so good.We didn't do him last week on what jam band he would like, the politician.Oh, Dean Cain's last name is Tanaka.Wow.Dean George Tanaka.
16:33So.So he's an immigrant.And then also the irony of that is, like, Superman is, like, the ultimate illegal alien.Yeah.He played an illegal alien, made all the money off of it.I don't know.It's so weird when, like, actors, like, tuck out for any politician, but especially Trump.Yeah.
16:48What's wrong with you, dude?like you I don't know it's like what and I was thinking like ice agents have you seen thisnew ad they're trying to get people to sign up uh like the ones on Twitter and stuff well no they'relike yeah they're like trying to get people to be ice agents and they're given all theseincentives like you make 85k you make more than a third grade teacher and like an inner citypublic school you get like a 50,000 dollar sign on bonus and like 60,000 dollars off your studentloans so here's my idea I want every person with student loans to sign up to be an ice agentdo nothing until they get their student loans
17:21for re whateverwhat is it calledreimbursed or whateveryeah do nothing until their student lawforgiven do nothing until they get their student loans forgivenand then everybody just quityeah it's basically what most cops door everybody join ice and then just be like
17:36heyI don't knowyou got anything to eat in therecan I borrow a cup of sugarexactlythat'd be funnyI don't know man it's justhe was on like Jesse Waters today
17:48It's like, it's weird how smug they all are about it.Like, you don't have it figured out.You're fucking, I looked it up.He actually went to Princeton.Oh, wow.You wouldn't think so.He's kind of a dumbass.Yeah, I don't know anything about him.
17:59He's just like a handsome guy.It wasn't even called Superman.It was called Lois and Clark.He wasn't even the first.Yeah, exactly.He wasn't like the first,he wasn't even the first character listed in the show.Oh.
18:11I don't know.He does kind of look like, what did you say he looked like?He said a little more alpha.Scott Beo, if he worked out.What happened to him?Remember?He also trumped out.Remember, during, like, the primary Republican National Convention?
18:24He was like, yeah, Scott Beaux's from Happy Days.Scotty B.Charles in charge.Yeah.Charles in charge of our, yeah, of our votes.Of our votes and our taxes.I think you were talking about, you said Scott Bayo and I went Mario Lopez.Oh, no, but I think he also kind of trumped out a little bit, too.
18:45Yeah, that's why I thought about that.Which is even funnier because he's obviously.Remember, he used to do.the, um, does he still do the, um, beauty pageant?Remember that famous clip, the, the, the girl who was, uh, what did he do again?I don't know, just interviewed that girl on stage.Yeah, but didn't he ask her something weird or something?I think he asked her something pretty normal.
19:02Oh, and she freaked out.Yeah, she could, yeah, she like couldn't talk right.Yeah.And now she's called it the Iraq and such as.The Iraq and such as.She's probably just nervous.She's super nervous.She's probably married to a, I think she held it down pretty, it was okay.
19:14It was actually one of the worst videos on the internet for four years.She's probably a Republican,congresswoman now or something yeah yeah that all that shit all works she's in the senate nowwell a lot of politics in such as politics this week so here's yeah everybody sign up for iceget your bonus i wonder i wonder how long it takes to get the bonusi don't know usually they don't just give it to you the first day usually have to work there forsix months or something yeah maybe they take it make it take as long as uh takes to getcitizenship here so it could be like 12 years yeah it's like impossible
19:48now actuallyyeahmy whole family's immigrantsand they allit took them foreveryeahreally my mom isjust kidding
19:55not my whole familybut a lot of themwere they from Irelandbut I was thinkingGermanyScotland EnglandFranceyeah that tracks
20:03yeah yeahhonkythe honky nationsCrackersburgCrackeroniaborn and raisedI was born and raisedin Cracketown
20:11and Crackistoniayeahbut like 80K a yearto go around. I don't know. Is that really worth, like, ruining your entire reputation?I don't know. But I was thinking, like, that Lois and Clark show. Ruin your reputation.It's more about ruining other people's lives, but yeah. Well, yeah, but I'm thinking from anactor. Yeah, you're right, though. Yeah. It's so stupid. But I was thinking, like,Lois and Clark hasn't been, this might be the first time he's made 80K a year in like 25 years.
20:40Yeah. He's like, that's actually a lot of money for me. Yeah, I don't think he's done anything.I don't know. He goes on news shows. That's what those people do, though. Like, you'llNotice that, like, there's a certain side where the celebrities, I mean, the other side'sdumb and annoying, too, but they're like, they have their own version of, you know, signaling orwhatever, but it's never, like, very famous people supporting the right, you know?No.ADK a year, pretty good for Dean Kane.It's not bad.
21:10Like, what?I can't imagine how down bad you'd have to be to be an ICE agent.There you can be a cop.I'd rather be a roadie for Metallica or something like that.I would do that.That sounds fun.I'd rather be Lars Ulrich's person.I don't know.
21:23I heard Lars is kind of a dick, though.I'd rather be his personal assistant that work for ICE.Oof.Yeah.I guess, yeah, that's the right choice there.Would you rather be a janitor at a nursing home or be an ICE agent?Yeah.I mean, we're going janitor.
21:38They might make just as much.Yeah, 80K a year.Like that, did you see that?A little poop and pee.Did you see that WMBA quote of the lady?She's like,I think Staley, she was like,the janitor was making more than me.
21:49I was like, I don't think that's true.Oh, yeah.It's like, well, let me be the jander, I guess.Yeah.People be lying.Anything pissing you off this week?It's a good question.I don't think so.
22:03I'm pretty content.Yeah?You've just been making shit with your little camcorders?Mm-hmm.There's one looking at us right now.That's fine.Camcorder, everybody.What a loser.
22:14Yeah, you got a lot of shit down here, man.Every time I come it's a little bitNow you have a whole new computerEvery time I comeIt's a little bit more sad down hereIsn't it?It's like a goodwill kind of at this pointYeah, by Goodwill where you could resell everything

27:33Yeah.Your trivia squad.Yeah, if you show up trivia alone and like people play alone, though.Yeah, I know.Well, that's unfortunate.We've had two solo winners in the last month.I should give them extra treat if they win.A treat?
27:47A dog bone?They've got this little metal I have on right now.Oh, okay.Where's that from?I found it today.It's from high school.I got first place in the state solo,saxophone solo competition.
27:57Oh, wow.I like how they made it very, um...I can't believe my dad...Nationalistic.Yeah, well, it's first place.First place, USA.Yeah, very much American to be first place.But, um...
28:07My dad sent me like this, like,for any pack he found a bunch of my shitthere was a bunch of 50 cent coinsI actually sold them all on eBay I got like 300 bucksOh really? Just recently?Yeah like a month ago or something two months agoHe's like here's something that's been passed downFor no it's my shit from when I was a kid
28:23Yeah he found it in some safe he has probably a gun safeAnd then he uhHe sent it all to me and it was likeI opened it up and there's like a bunch of fucking 50 centsI forgot I used to kind of getting to I got into collecting coins for like six monthsWhen I was like 16And I looked it up and they were all worth like 30 bucks a pieceI was like, I don't want a bunch of coins.
28:41Yeah, I threw them on eBay, and some guy bought them,and I sent them to it.Very easy to ship coins.Yeah.$7.But I had some of my state champion saxophone soloist metal.You should wear that, yeah.Should I wear it more often?
28:51Yeah.Let me show who you are.I give it instead of ID,instead of ID at the bar.They're like, okay, you can come over here, Nick.I'm 21.See, look how old this is.This is actually a silver medal.
29:05That's how old it is.It's gotten terrible.You should have thrown that.in there for the guy who bought all your coins.No. I don't want to give them a sense.What do you think that's going to be worth one day?Probably $0 and zero cents, most like everything else I own.Yeah. Negative money.
29:20It cost you money to throw it away.It cost me $30 to throw it away, actually.I didn't want it anymore. I didn't want to think about high school anymore.I'm getting old.Yeah. That's a long time ago now.Yeah, it was back in the early 70s.I think Carter was actually pregnant.president, pregnant.
29:39I don't think he's ever been pregnant.He's dead now.No, he's dead.Well, maybe he's been reincarnated, car-derinated.Carter would definitely would have been a panic fan.Probably.What makes you say that?Because he's from Georgia.
29:51Oh, okay, that tracks.That's basically all I need is, like, one thing to make it work.Yeah, I was going to say, I couldn't, I couldn't picture it.He's dead now.Yeah.He lives to be a hundred.Maybe that's what makes him a panic fan.He'll live to be 100.
30:03Yeah, I saw his, oof, his last moments in the backyard, the barbecue, where hekind of looked like the barbecue.Yeah.He was just in the chair.It looked like they were taking down a statue and laying it down to put another statue up.I don't think I want to live.I was going to say, I don't know.Do you want to live to be 100?
30:21No.I mean, unless there's some cool advancement where I can actually be cognizant.I do not want to be in a chair basking in the brightness.I've known two or three people that have lived to be 100, and it seems absolutely awful.It just seems sore.Soar.It's hurt pain.You don't know what's going.
30:37on around you.No, I'm down to be herea little bit longer.You can't just, you know.You can't crank hog anymore.Yeah, true.Hopefully.I mean, maybe you can.
30:47Take the catheter out.Take your blue two, man.How old do you want to live?How old do I want to live?48.38.How old are you now?$1.1, Bob.
31:0238 going on zero.I don't know.You know, a good.a solid life into the late 70ssounds good. Depends on what happens to me.I mean, I know people, you know, 20 and theyget dementia or...The first three years of dementia,
31:17I had a couple of family members get it. It was prettyfunny for a minute, and then it gets real sad.Yeah. It's pretty funny when they kind of just get kind of loopy,and they're just like, it's like they've had two beers all the time.Yeah. But then it gets real sad at the end.Who are you?You used to be funny.You weren't racist before. Why did you get racist from dementia?
31:35Yeah, that can happen.It does happen.And then people are a hard reset on your brainYou got to take out the thing and blow in itI need a new cartridgeDamn, what do you got?You got any shows coming up?Yeah, playing with Flamingoses
31:52Oh, doing our new record that comes out in Septemberat Levitt and then...Oh, you're playing Levitt?Yeah, Flemingoses.With who else?Who else is on that show?It's a good question.When is it?
32:06That's also a good point of.August 12th, I think.Nope.August 12th?Yeah.Like this is this weekend?September 12th.Yeah, there we go.
32:14Yeah, yeah, yeah.September 12th.Are you, is he doing live?The full band?Or 16th, maybe.Yeah, it's just, it's just, uh, Gilly and I.Deastra.Yeah.
32:24Deastrata.Keys and guitar, we're going to play the full record.It comes out also that same day.The six, August 16th, I believe.I think I'm going to, I might come to that.I might be out of town.We're doing like.I think that might be flusies and, um, at Red Rocks?
32:35No, a Dylan.I think it might be flusies, somebody else.I'm not going to Dylan for flusies.I mean, I love those guys.We'll be there.I'd rather go see Famingo.We'll be there.Oh, you just said you're playing Levitt.
32:46You're doing Levitt?Dylan and, yeah, both.Okay.Yeah.Wow.Back to back.What are we going to do?It's so hot out.
32:51I don't know.We're under a heat advisory, which is.We are?Yeah, which it's like 90, which is kind of weird for here.No, it's 99 right now.Oh, is it?Yeah, dude.Wow.
33:00It's brutally oppressive hot.A plus.Oppressive hot.Well, it's 96 now.It's starting to go down because it's 4 p.m.But, you know, Julie's working Rufus to Soul all weekend.That being, they rip.It's a three guys.
33:14I didn't know that.Yeah.Is it like a band?I mean, yeah.I think, I mean, not a band.It's like a DJ band.It's like DJ band.Those are kind of dying off.
33:21Remember, like, every band had like a guitar player and a drummer and a guy on Ableton?Yeah.Well, funds went down.Now it's been, yeah, I think people either want to hear a band or they want to hear the.Yeah.Flaming Goses will work with that.But, like, if you're making bangers, it's like,the drums are already kind of hitting.
33:37I think that that's kind of the...Drummers can kind of ruin the vibe there.I know, but they don't want to hear it.Because they always bitch about it, too.Yeah.I think some people think that leveling up their show...Now, not always it can work,but leveling up your show doesn't always, you know,
33:50need to have a drummer.Sometimes it can take the show away a little bit.I 100% agree.Especially if they, like...They can bitch because, like, the original drums are in there, too.Yeah.I mean, it can crack, for sure.But the real drums, like the recorded drums, crack way harder than the live drums.
34:08And then when you try to mix them over each other, you get this big wall of sound.It's got to be like Adam Deich.It's got to be like someone on that level or it doesn't work.You know what I mean?It can't be like whatever guy just graduated from CU Boulder.Yeah.With his sonar drum set.Sonar.
34:23Sooner.Yeah, they still make those, I think.Should we get high and watch World of Worlds after this and laugh at it?I'm done.Amazon Prime.What if we just started promoting Amazon Prime?We should watch it.Hopefully it's one of those ones that's only like an hour and a half.
34:39It has to be.There's no way.We look at it three and a half hour.Like Waterworld or something.They don't make three-hour movies anymore.We'll do Oppenheimer into World of Worlds with Ice Cube.Ice Cube, not T.Ice T's a law and order one.
34:54Yeah, that's right.You got Law and Order?He's a little better actor, maybe.I think he is.Well, he's just been doing it long.I don't know, is he?They're both bad.Ice Cube's son.
35:02Also an actor famous for playing Ice Cube.Oh, that's right.I forgot about that.Yeah, yeah.What was that?Compton?No, it's like, yeah, straight out of Compton.Straight out of Compton.
35:12I actually kind of like that movie.It was okay.I mean, I like NWA.I watched it front row.You did?No, I didn't.I don't really go to the theaters anymore.I don't either.
35:21I got scared.Weird things happen.Yeah, I don't really like it.I definitely look for exits when I do go, though.Dude.Oh, there's that one, and then there's...Like those corny TikToks about guys who like,My husband always has to sit face in the door when we go out to eat at the local hacienda restaurant.
35:37Ma'am, he has trauma.In case anything pops off.It's like, well, no, he's just like secretly.Yeah, he has trauma, basically.I don't want to say what I would.He's scared of his father, unfortunately.Unfortunately, his father hit him for 30 years.He got beat well into his 30s, came home from college, and his dad called him a pussy.
35:56Or he was just in the military, which has his own set of trauma.I don't know.I kind of, I want to give, next time I'm on the pod with Andy, I might try to see if he'll let me call ICE alive on the air and ask about the job.Can you just call them like it's a, there's got to be a phone number.I mean, they want people bad right now.What if they have like the operators?I thought the, I thought the government was broke.Yeah, I don't know.
36:19Yeah, I don't either, actually.I don't, I hardly care about that stuff.I don't like to think about it.I care about human rights and stuff.I just don't, the politics shit is getting so cringe.Crunch, good word for it.It's just like.Politics is cringe.
36:31It is cringe.Like, caring about human rights and all that shit, it's cool.But, like, just, like, if you, like, have a politician's merch.Yeah, that one's a weird one.If you had a Joe Biden t-shirt.But, like, yeah, I hardly want to wear band t-shirts.Yeah.And I'm not talking about just the Trump shit.
36:49I'm talking about, like, Joe Biden T-shirt.Whoever, it doesn't matter.It's like, I don't know.It's a weird hill to die on.Or a flag, too.Just a flag outside of your house.Yeah.I mean, there's American flag.
36:59There's, like, a line with that.I'm talking about, like, somebody's name.Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah.Anything but the American flag.You know, you should do Nick Gerlark, Colette Flags.Oh, my God, that'd be good.I would fly one.Fly high.
37:08Just sell a couple of them.I'm just picturing two giant, like, those boats they have, like the, like, the, like,Florida with just a huge-ass.Massive, yeah.Pictures of my face in this being.That would actually be pretty good.Anybody out there make flags?We're wearing the hat.
37:21Yeah.Well, they're both black.Yeah.Anybody out there make flags, hit me up.What would a flagmaker be called?There's got to be a name for it.some type of a flag maker.A flag maker.
37:32Oh, wow.Very creative, guys.Wait, the study of flags is called vexilogy.Flachsylogy or just?Vexillogy and a person who designs flags is a vexilographer.Vexillographer.That's cool.That's pretty cool.
37:47Bessie Ross was that?Yeah.That's the only one I know.You have to be a trivia.Name a famous vexillographer.It's got to be Betsy Ross and that's it.I can't name one of the person that's ever made a flag.Yeah.
37:59I have no idea.Have you ever purchased a flag?I don't think so.Like, I wouldn't even know where to buy a flag.I don't know.You have to, I think, truly, you have to stand for something pretty heavy to purchase a flag.I guess you could probably just Google it and it's a fine one in five minutes.Yeah, eBay pretty has lots of flags.
38:14Walmart probably is loaded with flags.Walmart has American flags.You could probably buy, like, an avalanche flag.You could probably buy it.Yeah, down at the Colorado Stadium.Yeah.The Colorado Avalanche Stadium.Maybe that'll be the new thing, though.
38:27All the homies get flags.Yeah.No, we don't have a flag.Why isn't Frascoe?I feel like maybe he does.He has so much merch.Andy Flagsco.There you go.
38:36He could be his flag company.Boom.Don't.He's already just made the L.As he's listening, this LLC is already made.Yeah, I'll come to your show at Levin.I think me and Andy might be out of town.There's a rumor we're going to go, I don't want to say it on here in case it doesn't happen,
38:52but we're going to be like the official pod.Yeah, official pod for like this big festival of country people.Oh.It might get to be aroundsome actual stars for once instead ofJam band zeros. Yeah.Who go online and complain abouthow Spotify makes them pay
39:08and how they... People will be complaining about anything.I'm so over musicians complaining.It's kind of starting to drive me crazy. It's always likethe white dudes. And it's always like...Yeah.
