This is exactly right.
Double Elvis.
When a group of women discover they've all dated the same prolific con artist, they take matters into their own hands.
I vowed, I will be his last target.
He is not going to get away with this.
He's going to get what he deserves.
We always say that trust your girlfriends.
Listen to the girlfriends.
Trust me, babe.

This season on Dear Chelsea with me, Chelsea Handler,
we have some fantastic guests like Amelia Clark.
When like young people come up to me and they want to be an actor or whatever.
My first thing is always, can you think of anything else that you can do?
Rather be disappointed in.
Do that.
David O'Yellowo.
I love this podcast, whether it's therapy or relationships or religion or sex or addiction

Your husband is not who you think he is.
Your body is not what you thought it was.
Your identity is formed by a secret history.
I'm Danny Shapiro, and these are just a few of the stunning stories
I'll be exploring on the fourth.
14th season of Family Secrets.
He kind of shoved me out of the way and said, move.
And he went out the front door and he jumped in a car and drove off.
And that was the last time I saw him.
Listen to season 14 of Family Secrets, starting May 7th on the IHeart Radio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts.
Hey, Discos.
Need a little more disgrace land in your life?
Just a touch to get you through?
Yeah, me too.
This is the podcast that comes after the podcast.
Welcome to Disgraceland, the After Party.
Welcome to the disgrace land bonus episode.
A little thing we like to call the after party.
This is the show, after the show, the party after the party, the bridge to get you from
one full episode of disgrace land to the other, the backyard to dig into the dirt.
Our mission to uncover the truth to confront the myth to reclaim the story.
On this bonus episode, we're talking about our part two story on Led Zeppelin that just
hit your feed.
We're rewinding back to our Peter Tosh episodes, previewing next week's story on Pentegram,
and we get into your voicemails, text, D&EFLEM.
and as always a whole lot of rosy.
This is the podcast for the musically obsessed,
the outsiders, the independent thinkers
who know that the best history
is the history that gets buried.
Disgraceland is where I tell the stories
they didn't want told the kind
you'll end up telling someone else.
All right, discos, let's get into it.
I often pose this question and statement
to disgrace land listeners, it's this.
It's, if you feel like today's music culture
doesn't reflect what you care about,
you're not alone, you belong with the discos.
Now, that's not just marketing spin. It's sincerely how I feel. And I know it's how a lot of you,
most of you guys feel as well. When I talk about modern music culture, I'm talking about the artists
populating the Billboard charts and Spotify new release playlist, that sort of thing.
Music history, the myths, the legends are just more interesting to me. And it's not that I don't
love some modern bands. I do. Geese, Turn style. I've talked about these guys before others.
I've even had some of them on the show.
It's just that, well, you know what I mean.
And I don't want to belabor the point here.
I only want to set the stage for this conversation that I want to have.
Because in the last few days, a lot has been made of Jay-Z's choice of artists to perform at this season's Super Bowl halftime show.
If you're unaware, Jay-Z, whose company Rock Nation, has a contract with the NFL to program the event,
chose bad bunny.
Okay?
Now, it's hard for me to find anyone who is excited about this choice.
Like, genuinely excited, like going like, yes.
Fucking, he did it.
Chose bad bunny.
Okay.
Now I say, I say it's hard for me to find anyone who's excited.
That's weird because bad bunny is literally one of, if not the biggest artist on the planet.
Like, you look quantifiably.
It's just true.
It's a fact.
We're talking like Taylor Swift level huge.
Now, I'm probably not seeing the excitement because my feeds are calibrated to show me what I'm interested in.
And, well, I'm just not interested in Bad Bunny or his music, but a lot of people are.
The question, however, is, are those people NFL fans?
Bad Bunny is one of the most streamed artists on the planet.
He sells out stadiums.
He's got three Grammys, sells too many records to count, charts hits, but do you hear
Bad Bunny when you walk through the stadium at Orchard Park and Buffalo on Sundays while
Bill's Mafia's tailgating?
All you Yinzers out there, are you bumping Bad Bunny on your way out of the stadium after
watching Aaron Iowasco Rogers on Sunday afternoon. No, you guys have sticks as
renegades stuck in your head, just like Bill's fans have the killers, Mr. Brightside,
Pat's fans have the outfields, Josie's on a vacation, you know what I'm saying? Like,
that's that's football, man. That's professional football anyways. The live fan experience
is about classic rock. And sure, some hip-hop, but man, Eminem, Dr. Dre,
outcast, even Jay-Z, they might as well be classic rock.
They scratched the same itch for Generation X and elder millennials.
Bad Bunny is about the future, okay, which is fine.
The NFL is internationally minded as a major corporation in America can be.
There's only so many football fans in the United States.
This is why there are now tons of international.
National games, the league is trying to expand.
But in my view, they're doing it in a really lame way.
They're sacrificing the needs of their current fans
for what they perceive are the desires of their future fans.
I can't stand it when brands do this.
It drives me crazy.
And I don't really fully know how to articulate it,
but you kind of know it when you feel it.
Anyways, the next Super Bowl, this is the kind of maddening part here.
The next Super Bowl is in San Francisco.
Now, I'm not saying that the NFL should have chose locals like dead in company or journey,
who I'll admit, though more interesting to me than Bad Bunny, those bands aren't as relevant
on the mainstream stage as Bad Bunny is.
They're from San Francisco, sure, and it would be great for a hometown team to play in San Francisco.
What's it called Levi Stadium for the Super Bowl this year instead of Bad Bunny?
But those guys just aren't, you know, how do you, if you put Journey,
there instead of bad money, then you're really just, then you're going too far in the other direction.
Then you're really catering to the old people.
Um, and that's not a good thing.
Dead.
Dead.
Dead.
Same goes for the dead.
Dead and company.
Excuse me.
However.
However, dude.
Metallica.
Fucking Metallica.
The choice was right there.
It was perfect.
It's a chip shot from 15 yards out.
Jay-Z.
Metallica is from San Francisco.
and Metallica is still completely relevant.
They're still not just selling out stadiums.
They're selling out stadium tours, okay?
Entire tours, years in advance.
Metallica also has a huge international audience.
And I would argue, and I think quite successfully,
that Metallica has way more appeal with NFL fans than bad money.
But does Metallica have that appeal with future NFL fans?
And that I do not know.
Maybe they don't.
Maybe they do.
I don't know.
Is Bad Bunny the worst choice the NFL could have made?
No.
And this is where things get really interesting.
Because this sort of like Super Bowl halftime show, like the unveiling of the artist and all that,
everything's event-tized these days for social media.
But I'm old enough to remember a time when the halftime show wasn't that big of a deal.
You never, you didn't even think about it.
It was small potatoes compared to the game.
now for like my wife, it's the whole thing. You know what I mean? You ask her what her favorite
Super Bowl was the last 10 years and she's going to talk about the one with the Maroon 5 dude and his
shirt off. And I blame her, you know, dude was looking good that day. Anyhow, I'm wildly off
track. If you go back, this is where it gets interesting. If you go back in the not so distant
future and you start to see how the halftime show is programmed, it is fucking awesome. And it's
hysterical and you won't believe some of the things that the NFL was trying to pass off as
entertainment. I don't know. I just, I can't get by Metallica. All right, I got to move on. In the
exclusive section of this after party, Zeth and I are going to be recommending to you guys some of the
weirdest and wildest Super Bowl halftime performances, some that are going to make you feel better
about the season's bad bunny choice even. But most are going to make you feel like you normally do,
which is something along the lines of, man, I didn't realize.
how good we had it back then. I think about that a lot. All I got to say is Prince. That's it.
All right. You got to be a disgrace and all access member to hear that, though. It's five bucks a month.

content and ad free listening. Go to disgraceland pod.com to sign up via Patreon or Apple
podcasts. All right, guys, all this Super Bowl talk, and it's barely October, spooky season has arrived,
and we've kicked it off with a bang this week in our part two Led Zeppelin episode about the
haunted Headley Grange, where Jimmy Page and the boys recorded many of their biggest,
well, I don't want to say hits, songs, I should say. And we paired that episode with a mini
episode on what, or shall I say, who was haunting the home of Jimmy Page. Hint, it was not
Alistair Crowley. Many episodes are available for all access members as well, like I just mentioned.
Coming up in the rewind slot this week, though, which is next in your feed, we've got our
episodes are two-part story on Peter Tosh, and it's a particularly horrifying event that
hopefully you never experience. Hopefully, I never experience as well. And if you're a,
you know, just to help out our sponsors here, if you're a simply safe member, you'll never
experience this horror, horrific event that we detail in the Peter Tosh episode. You're going
have to listen to find out what I'm talking about. Anyhow, coming up next week in your feed,
our episode on Metal Band Pentagram. Now, what's more Halloween than an episode on a band
named Pentagram. The answer is none, none more metal. Okay, when you're listening to this episode
on Pentagram and you're hearing the story from the point of view of Teddy Pentagram, the cool,
older dude at the record store, be thinking about who your musical Sherpa was, okay? Who turned you on
to great music when you were a kid? Was it an older sibling? Was it someone at a record store?
Was it your cousin who smoked you up on Thanksgiving? Who turned you on to great music as a little
teenage punk who was desperate to find the next great band. Whatever it was, who was that person?
We want to know. Shout them out. Give him some love. Give them some appreciation. Show them some gratitude.
617-906-66-6638. Leave us a voicemail. Send us a text with your answers and you might hear yourself
and your musical Sherpa mentioned on the next after party. I'm going to take a quick break. I'll be back
in a flash with your answers to last week's question of the week and more.
There's two golden rules that any man should live by. Rule,
One, never mess with a country girl.
You play stupid games, you get stupid prizes.
And rule two, never mess with her friends either.
We always say that trust your girlfriends.
I'm Anna Sinfield.
And in this new season of The Girlfriends,
Oh my God, this is the same man.
A group of women discover they've all dated the same prolific con artist.
I felt like I got hit by a truck.
I thought, how could this happen to me?
The cops didn't seem to care.
So they take matters into their own hands.
I said, oh, hell no.
I vowed.
I will be his last target.
He's going to get what he deserves.
Listen to the girlfriends.
Trust me, babe.

His father just grabs him and says she's gone.
She's gone.
These are the cases that leave survivors, families,
and the journalists who cover them changed forever.

Remember when you'd walk into your local video rental place and there were always those two employees behind the counter arguing about movies?
Well, that's us.
I'm Millie de Cherico.
And I'm Casey O'Brien.
And now we're arguing about movies on our podcast.
Dear Movies, I love you.
from the exactly right network.
Can I say something about the Criterion Clause?
Go ahead, dude.
They're letting too many people in there.
Okay, that's another film, Gripe I got two.
Sadly, that rental place doesn't exist anymore.
It's probably a store that sells running shoes.
Or an ice cream shop with an extra P and an E at the end.
So consider us your slacker movie clerks in podcast form.
I would like to establish a timeline of the moment you figured out who Channing Tatum was.
Every Tuesday, we dig into the movies we can't stop obsessing over, from hidden gems to big screen favorites.

Michael Murphy over on Patreon chimed in on our Led Zeppelin Part 2 episode saying,
great job on this episode, especially the music and FX.
Now, please, please do an episode or preferably two on Genesis.
Michael, thank you for that.
all props due to Matt Bowden, who put together the mix and the music for that Ledz Up in Part 2 episode.
We're very, very pleased with Matt's work, and he's going to hear your happiness too, Michael.
Thanks on Genesis.
Dude, I listen to Misunderstanding by Genesis now every single day.
I don't know what's up with that song, but it has owned me for the last few weeks.
I have basically no knowledge of Genesis at all.
Is it Genesis?
Is it Peter Gabriel?
is it Phil Collins? Is it Mike in the mechanics? What the hell was even happening? There was backwards
Mohawks. I don't understand. As you hear in this week's Led Zeppelin episode Genesis makes an appearance.
I think it's high time. I dive into this. I will let you know, Michael, that in the exclusive section of this here after party,
you will hear us talking a little bit about Phil Collins. I'm kind of weirdly super intrigued by Phil
Collins lately. And I don't know why. I got to learn more. So yes, maybe a Genesis.
episode. Guys, if you want to be like Michael, you want to get at me super direct, super quick,
jump into Patreon chat with your fellow music obsessives. That's where I'm at every single day,
pretty much. Join me over there at Patreon. All right, right now, though, I'm in the phone booth.
It's one across the hall, and I'm hanging on the telephone. And we talked about the rumors surrounding
TikTok rapper David last week. And in light of our haunted Headley Grange, Led Zeppelin's story,
we asked you guys to hit us up with your ghost stories and Germ here in the 619.
hit us up on both issues.
Hey, Jake, this is a germ, the 619.
Hey, brother.
First of all, I'm listening to this,
and I heard more about that David character,
and I've heard on, and I'll call him out, on KFI.
That's where I usually get my news,
because it's fairly legitimate, most of the time,
but still biased.
But nonetheless, I thought that was brilliant,
because he gave me more information and less words.
And then you're talking about spooky shit for Halloween time.
We would have to have a freaking sit-down conversation.
I got more spooky stories than a human should have.
I've done house cleansings.
Our house is haunted.
We just shot a video for one of my bands called Morning Star.
which is exorcist themed and we chose my place because it's haunted none left keep up the good
work brother and I'm enjoying the podcast that gets that's about it man I got to get back to mowland
lawns talk to you soon germ thanks for the call we got a little mini update on David this week
turns out that the body and the back of the car that was allegedly uh registered
in David's name, the body of that young woman was apparently had been dead.
I don't know, how do you say this?
The person who they found dead in the back of that car had been dead for weeks before the body
was put into the car.
That's what investigators said.
I believe yesterday they broke that news.
So we're learning more slowly.
And I find it really interesting that David hasn't been charged.
Okay.
I don't know what that means.
It's got to mean something, though.
Or maybe it means nothing.
I'm just reading tea leaves.
I have a feeling we'll know more by the time we talk next week.
Germ, you sound totally unfazed from living in a haunted house.
Our house in Massachusetts, an old colonial from 1763, was so haunted that we sold it.
I'm too scared to even really talk about it.
And maybe I will, though, as October progresses, I've never really talked about it publicly.
Talked a little bit about it once on Instagram, but that was more my wife kind of pushing the issue.
Good luck out there on the mower, Jerm.
Appreciate you.
Thanks for calling him.
Looking forward to seeing the new Morning Star video.
All right.
Let's hear from Dave in the 801 in Salt Lake City.
Hey, Jake, Dave from Salt Lake City calling their friend's house.
How are you doing?
That's second song, Jesus.
This is the last and trip me a out.
So have a good day, my friend.
Dave, first of all, Jesus has your back.
As you know, as he does for all of us, which is great to hear.
No surprise.
Thanks for sharing, Dave.
I remember last year, similar to your story, when I was reading The Exorcist, the book
The Exorcist, and I was thinking about faith because that's the theme of the book, faith in the larger sense, my faith, just the concept of faith.
I was thinking about it daily.
And I was thinking specifically about pride, the sin of pride.
I was walking around for days, trying to come to terms with understanding how my own pride was sinful,
is trying to understand the concept of pride.
I was really struggling with this.
And I went to sleep one night and I had this dream that I was being toyed with by a lion,
a massive, giant lion with these huge paws.
It was just pushing me around, just toying with me, just playing with me.
And I wasn't scared.
I was weirdly comfortable.
And I woke up the next morning and I thought,
lion, pride, pride of lions, pride. And as that thought hit me, I was also hit by a wave of,
I don't even know how to describe it. It was like elation, it was comfort, it was security. It was the
opposite of fear. It was a feeling of everything's going to be okay, dude, all right? I've got you.
Just chill. You're going to be all right. Now, this has nothing to do with hauntings. It's kind of
the opposite. Dave and Salt Lake, your call reminded me of this, so I just thought I'd share.
Everything's going to be all right, Dave, all right? Everything's going to be all right. Everything's
going to be all right even if you live in a haunted house from 1763 let's check out scott in the
six two three hey jake it's scott from the six two three was just listening to the depesh mode
episode and um i was there i used to be an assistant music buyer for warehouse records
and happen to be dating a girl that worked for k rock the world famous k rock and
And we were at the warehouse records on Los Yanica, the night that the incident happened with the violator album release.
Definitely one of the scariest nights of my life, being right in the middle of it as it happened.
We were inside the store helping facilitate the band and things happening.
And people started breaking through the windows.
then stuff was being thrown at the store, and then it just all hell broke loose.
Just a crazy, crazy night.
Just an incredible thing to be a part of.
I was very fortunate to attend a lot of music events over that couple of years that I worked for.
Great episode, rock and roll.
Scott, thanks for sharing, man.
I love, love, love when folks who were at the events that we're depicting and describing in our episodes,
call and connect with us.
on their firsthand experiences.
Appreciate you, Scott.
Sounds scary,
but at least you get a good story out of it.
And Scott, of course,
is talking about the Depeche Mode episode
that we released last week
for our all-access members
and Patreon.
You want to hear that Depeche Mode episode.
You've got to get over there

Hey, Jake, Jules, from Seattle.
Just listening to the Led Zeppelin piece takes me back to the fabulous forum in 1977, 17 years old and totally sighted.
First thing we see upon entry, bodies passed out along the curved walled stupid suckers.
Too wasted to see Led Zepp.
The show was totally unbelievable, mind-blowing for real.
Thanks for your great storytelling rock on brother Jules.
Just incredible, man.
Incredible.
I cannot imagine what it was like to see Led Zeppelin in 1977.
FOMO. I am jealous.
615, text in.
Jake Brennan, I just finished.
We Begin at the End, and now I'm sobbing, thanks to you.
Guys, getting a lot of messages about this book.
I talked a lot about this book because this book is freaking amazing.
We Begin at the End by Chris Whitaker.
It's fantastic.
You don't believe me, asked Dr. Lundy,
or just listen to what the 615 said there.
Fantastic book.
I just read The Power and the Glory by Graham Green.
and I have lots of thoughts.
I'm going to get into none of them here,
but if anyone wants to talk about that,
hit me up on Patreon.
I'm reading now,
finally, Blood Meridian by Cormick McCarthy.
And wow, this guy is a special writer.
Special writer.
It's, you have to kind of,
for anyone who hasn't read Cormick McCarthy before,
I read the road back in the day,
but this one, it's similar style,
not exactly the same,
but you just got to kind of submit
to this dude's style.
of writing. It's, just go into it knowing this isn't going to be a normal novel, okay? It's going to be
different. It's like Frank Zappa fans. That's a bad analogy. What's a better analogy? It's, I don't know,
it's like, I guess Metallica. You go to Metallica concert, you can expect that it's going to be loud.
You read a Cormick McCarthy book. You got it, you get to, you expect you're going to be pulled into the
slipstream, and he's in charge. He is just, he's got you. He is the current. And you're just, you're just a
leaf and you're just floating along, man.
You can't fight it.
You can't go against the current.
Does that make sense?
I think it does for me anyways.
617-90666-6-6-3-8.
You want to get at me about anything.
Music-related, question of the week, books, whatever.
Hit me up.
Voicemail and text, and I'm always available in the Patreon chat as well.
Now, I saw an incredible television series.
I finished it last week.
I want to talk to you guys about it a minute, but I can take a quick break.
Back in Flash.

I finished watching Black Rabbit on Netflix starring Jason Bateman in Jude Law.
And I just don't know that I've seen a...
better limited series on television than this show. Now, I know it's like they almost, it's, it's,
the makers, the filmmakers, sorry, the television makers, the showrunners, the writers, it's almost as if
they took me and they put me in a lab and they studied exactly what would appeal to me. And then
they went off and they made a television limited series about it and they came back with Black Rabbit.
it, it's perfectly calibrated to make me, of all people, love it. And if you're a music fan,
if you're somebody who's spent a lot of time in New York, if you're Gen X, this is just, you know,
if you have friends who work in the service industry, if you've played in restaurants,
it's just, if you were in bands, it's just all the things, man, plus all the charm of Jason
Bateman and Jude Law, an incredible, propulsive storytelling. Just fantastic. I want to talk about
all of it, but I don't want to spoil it for you. It's got me thinking, too, I had this idea about doing a
Hollywood Land episode on Jason Bateman and Jude Law because Jason Bateman and Jude Law both had
these mid-career dips at different ages, I believe, for both of them. Bateman goes into it in great
detail in his Mark Marin interview from about five, six years ago, whenever that was. It's his, that
I had this idea in Seth, if you're listening, and I know you are, where we do a Hollywood
Land episode, and it's on both these guys. It's a joint episode, and we track both their careers
and their mid-career dips and then their comebacks at the Black Rabbit, which I thought would be
very cool. Black Rabbit is a restaurant for those of you who don't know. That's why I said at the
Black Rabbit. And the series is called Black Rabbit. So there you go. And there's some strokes involved.
I'm not going to give it away. The strokes. Okay.
All right, but I don't know.
That sounds difficult, but that hasn't stopped us before.
Maybe we'll get into it.
We have tons of stories, though, from the annex of Hollywood and true crime happening over in the Hollywoodland feed with Dr.
Lundy, who I just mentioned, who's taking your voicemails and texts in the rap party bonus episode.
And if you're not listening, here's a taste of what you're missing.
Go ahead, Matt, playing the clip.
I'm just going to jump right into it here at the top of the block here and give you a couple of quotes from Robert Mitchum,
because they're just, they're so great.
I want to start with this, okay?
Here's one.
I got three expressions, looking left, looking right, and looking straight ahead.
Number two, movies bore me, especially my own.
And then number three, third quote from Robert Mitcham, maybe my favorite.
There just isn't any pleasing some people.
The trick is to stop trying, which that last one reminds me of something my mom always
used to say to me, which was, who cares what other people think? You're never going to see these people
again, right? It's like some of the best life advice to get from a person who was full of great advice,
but I was never personally able to take that advice and run with it. I am so on Robert Mitchum
at heart at my core. I am a people pleaser, and I can't not care what other people think,
nor can I stop trying, like Robert Mitchum said. And why is that? I don't know, Doc. How much time you got?
But enough about me. I want to talk about Robert Mitchum. I want to talk about the attitude of Robert
Mitch and the swagger, the defiance. I mentioned this briefly last week, but Dennis, Brennan, Jake's dad,
who helps us with some research here at Double Elvis. When he did research on Robert Mitchum,
he came back and said, this is like, this guy was the biggest misanthrope in Hollywood.
And it got me thinking, as I was thinking about Robert Mitchum over the weekend, preparing to
to write and record this episode, I wonder how a guy like Robert Mitchum would fare,
in today's social media landscape.

It's Wednesday, as I'm recording this.
And you're likely hearing this on Thursday,
the day that it's being released.
I just watched last night an incredible playoff matchup
between the Red Sox and the Yankees.
And before I get too far,

And I got to say, this is one of those moments where I don't even know that I can rent.
I mean the socks won a barn burner of a high stakes pitching duel in the opening playoff
game last night against the Yankees.
The Pats did what a great football team is supposed to do last Sunday.
they destroyed a crap team at home. I can't believe I'm saying this, but I'm kind of afraid to rant.
I'm afraid to complain because I don't want to upset the Boston sports karma that we have going into
tonight's game two against the Yankees. How pathetic is that? A New Englander who can't find anything
to complain about. Who even am I? Okay, I know what I'll complain about the damn. Well, I guess I could
complain about not being able to get the shot off before the buzzer, but I won't. That was the sports rant.
Sponsored by Five Hour Energy's New Pumpkin Spice flavor. These new pumpkin spice five hour energy shots are

Our favorite fall drink and an energy shot, you can pick up a pumpkin spice five-hour energy shot

Super Bowl this year? Highly unlikely, but that's not going to stop Zeth Lundy and I from talking
about the halftime shows from the past that were just bonkers crazy, all right? And some,
of course, it featured some great music. But to be honest, I'm going to say,
more interested in the 50-year-ar-line magicians. Phil Collins's halftime cargo pants,
Michael Jackson's Bizarre, Disappearing Act. I'm more interested in that stuff than I am Prince
tearing it up in the rain, but we are going to get to all of it in the exclusive all-access
