We'll be back next week on schedule.Episode 140: The First Date PlaylistSingle and looking for dating tips?? Bad idea looking to us! But just in case Soren and Daniel are here with your perfect first date playlist tips.

I've got a quick, quick question for you, alright? I wanna hear your thoughts, wanna know what's on your mind I've got a quick, quick question for you, alright? The answer's not important, I'm just glad that we could talk tonight So what's your favorite? Who did you get? What do I be? What's it up to? Where did all that go? Oh, forget it I saw a movie, Daniel O'Brien When will I be remembered? What's it all about? What's it all about? Why do we not? Oh, forget it.

Saw a movie, Daniel O'Brien. Two best friends and comedy writers. If there's an answer, they're gonna find it. I think you'll have a great time here. I think you'll have a great time here. So hello again and welcome to another episode of Quick Question with Soren and Daniel, the podcast where two best friends and comedy writers ask each other questions and give each other answers. I am one half of that podcast, senior writer for Last Week Tonight with John Oliver, author of How to Fight Presidents, and LaCroix drinker who consumes, on average,

I crunch the numbers on this, eight cans a day, Daniel O'Brien, joined as always by my co-host, Mr. Soren Bui. Soren, say hello. Hey, everybody. I'm Soren Bui. I am a writer for American Dad. And since I've been out of the writer's room, I've really kind of drifted towards spin drift. Oh. Do you know it? I'm sure I've seen it in the aisle at the grocery store, but I couldn't be more basic. It's such a shitty can. It's like a, it's two tone. It's there's no fancy new frill to it.

It's just one white on top and then whatever color drink it is on the bottom, but it's got actual juice in it. So like if you get the grapefruit with one for also I'll say not pomple moose cause there are no frills. It's Big Drift. It's grapefruit. You pour it into a glass, you will see some of that little grapefruity residue in there. There's something very frustrating to me about how similarly designed the boxes for a lot of these products are like once something takes off and a bunch of competitors pop up i understand the the the game i understand they're trying to

like sneak in there and trick me but it's very frustrating when i'm looking for lacroix and there are a bunch of these other lesser lacroix's positioned around it with like similar color schemes i feel that way mostly with there's these uh protein bars called no cow that i get a lot because they're one of the only like protein bars on the market that doesn't have dairy or egg so i can have them and the the labeling system for protein bars it's just they're all so fucking similar it's crazy that if you're especially if you're in a new grocery store grocery store and you're just like quickly trying to scan for it and it's like uh life crunch and and and one bar and one thing and one cream

they all are like very similar kind of stark designs they all clearly went to the same design school and like i just i i'll never find my thing now yes it's i think that's true of every new industry that it's they've been taking advantage of the it's like the grandparent phenomenon where they're like they know that your kid wants this particular movie or this particular game so they're gonna come up with six more that look kind of similar that are gonna confuse the the name. Like your grandparents are going to get confused and be like, is this the one? The man at the store said, this is the one you want. And so like the White Claw, any sort of hard seltzer now, they all have the exact same marketing. If you go to the store, it's impossible. You're like, okay, let's see here. Which one is the one I like?

Yeah. Especially, I never got into White Claws, and I have a bunch of friends that did. And I think I can spot them now, but I went to a summer party last year, and I wanted to contribute something, and I just grabbed a case of like, hey, this is what it looks like you all drink all the time. And they're like, this is fucking Half Moon

or whatever wrong thing that I got i was like i don't know there's it all looks the same i can't it does all look the same uh it's not fair it's just designed to fool anyone who's not deeply familiar with the industry and i don't i think that just happens everywhere i think that's true every time there's something new every somebody out there is like okay well let's let's let's throw one over on some of the rubes uh so how are you how you doing we're gonna get into the show but just like what's up how's it going it's been a minute yeah i mean it has actually we don't even talk on text in a while uh yeah you know things are good i went to tucson arizona. You familiar with it? I'm aware of it. I've never been. I went for a wedding.

Colleen's best friend from growing up. And at this point in their lives, I mean, she met this girl when she was six. And this girl was so nice to her because she was the one who showed her around when Colleen came to a new school and everything. And they just became really good friends. But at this point in their lives, they don't have much in common. I will say that this woman and I have a tremendous bout more in common. Like she's, we're not very different people in that she's kind of like an introvert and very quiet. She's a great person. And like, and is

interested in a lot of the same things I'm interested in just by chance. So at their wedding, one of the first songs, when everyone's just sort of like milling around, getting ready to sit down and everything, a wean song comes on. And I'm like, I have never heard wean at a wedding before. I was so pumped. And I was like,

how I'm going to tell, I have to talk to her about that. And I was like, this isn't the right time. She was like coming down the aisle. I was like thinking in my head, I want to talk to you about stay forever you played stay forever earlier and i was like no soren don't don't do that and then uh it came up and also like soren prepare

for the possibility that there won't be a right time at this wedding you just might have to eat this one the it was a very small wedding so we all sat at the same table to eat. Oh, fun. And as we're talking, somebody had made a speech. I think the best man's speech, he had said that she was a... Oh, he made a joke because her vows were on her phone and the man she was marrying, he had done his vows on paper. He is like deep into computer science and everything. And he had done his vows on paper and she was a, I guess a literature major. And she had had her vows on her phone. He was commenting on how funny that was. So I agree, but I didn't know she was a lit major. And so I was like, at during dinner, when everyone's eating quiet, I was like, I didn't know you were a literature major. And she was like,

yeah, yeah, yeah. Uh, here are the things I studied. And I was like, I studied those as well. And then, and then this other woman who I was sitting studied. And I was like, I studied those as well. And then, and then this other woman who I was sitting next to, she's like, you were a literature major. What do you, what do you do now? And I was like, I'm a writer. She's like, I want to be a writer so bad. And I was like, what? And she had just, I think she had been writing on her own. It was sort of like asking questions in terms of like, Hey, ask me now, ask me what I write. And I got, cause I, she wanted to talk to somebody about her writing. Cause it's an inherently lonely thing to do. And, um, and then it came up that, uh, she's like, so what do you write? What do you write

for? And I was like, I told her the show and she, for the rest of the night, I think, I guess she really likes the show because for the rest of the night her and her husband were just on like they were like doing jokes they were doing bits like jumping in on other people's conversations when they felt like oh I got a good I got a good one here buh-buh like dropping it in and uh it the wedding just took this turn because it was before it was very quiet not a lot of people knew each other a lot of people that had maybe like met once or twice and then all of a sudden like this one couple was the life of this party and and like and everyone else was like oh i guess i guess we're allowed to step it up and it just changed the energy of the whole place changed it was really interesting that's fun are you gonna are you gonna uh you're gonna talk to Seth about this couple? See if we can get them on the show?

I would love to talk to Seth about getting me on any show. Just getting in Seth's ear at all would be the boon of a lifetime. Just walk into his office. Hey, man, you know what you should do? I should back up. Hey, my name's Soren. I've been writing for you for a couple of years. You don't know me. You don't know me me but i've been writing all those words you say surely the ones you hate because you never mentioned the show anywhere oh um he's just so consumed with uh orville an album of lounge standards that nobody you're not you're not off i think that he's like he's really into his crooning and he's into orville which you know that's his that's his baby sure and he's got his his new ted series coming out so i think that he's he's well occupied i want to return to something you said uh early in this story about uh colleen and and this woman being friends when

they were kids but not really having too much to talk about now because that i think they still yeah they just don't have anything in common yeah yeah i recently my college roommate came to visit me in this beach town and we we got he was one of the best roommate i i've only had one roommate he's the best roommate a person could ask for. We got along so well throughout college. It was such a gift that we found each other and just like locked in and became good buddies and spent all of college talking to each other. And we would meet up a couple of times after college and go backpacking or camping and, uh, would try to see each other as much as possible, but you lose touch over time. uh would try to see each other as much as possible but you lose touch over time and uh so when i saw him here in town i was the first time i'd seen him in maybe six or seven years and again even

before that it's once every couple years that we're seeing each other and we hung out two days that he was here and the first day it was great we caught up he's engaged now really excited to to hear about his life and his his he he stayed in academia the this entire time he is he is almost going to be done and then he'll be like a doctor of history or law or something like that and then he won't have to go to school anymore and that'll be nice for him but we we chatted and we talked about all this stuff. Like everything that two people could reasonably talk about to catch each other up on the last seven years of our lives. And then he was like, I'm still in town. So you want to meet for coffee and lunch tomorrow?

I was like, yeah, of course I do. I could talk to you forever. This is great. And the next day it was really just like so remember college that weird kid Will we almost lived with? Yeah, yeah, yeah, Will. Will sucked. Yeah, Will sucked.

So remember the so you remember college? The bar that we went to? It's closed now. I heard. heard yeah it's a shame lots of places are closed and lots of places are open that's true man hey you should probably be hitting the road huh like coffee i just drank in three sips this is crazy yeah um i think that like they're still

good friends she's such a good person too both Both my wife and her are, they're like the sim, they shave it, they share an energy wavelength. It's like very similar people and also really good people. And it's like on that front, they just inherently get along. But when, just in talking to her, she's a very quiet person. It's like comfortable with long silences and stuff. And I'm not. So like when I'm, when I'm with them, I'm always like, Hey, what's this over here? You got a D and D board. What is that? I play D and D. Oh, that's awesome. Let me talk to you about Skyrim. Yes. I love Skyrim. Yes. Perfect. This will be great. Uh, let me talk to you about horizon zero dawn. Is this a game I should be playing? And like, these are like, it's me carrying a conversation, but realizing along the way that she's interested in all these

things that I'm interested in where I'm like, okay, Colleen, she likes video games and D and D. This is not your scene. She likes ween. And she likes Colleen. I think Colleen just like, I think this joke's on you that she just like found her best friend in you. And I was like, oh yeah, I could just, I guess just, this is an easy transition for me. Yeah. Yeah. and was like oh yeah i could just i guess just this is an easy transition for me yeah yeah the fact that she and i are both so drawn to colleen i think probably says something

uh but yeah so anyway i went to i got on a plane and went to a wedding i gave myself every opportunity to get coven so we'll see how that shakes out you've been feeling okay? Yeah, I feel great. That's good. I thought about little else since the podcast where I joked about how I wanted you to get COVID. I really been thinking about that. And that's just poor form. Like bad friendship stuff and bad just like energy to put out in the universe. I don't want you to get COVID. Yeah, but imagine if you had that power,

that if you just said something and it happened, there's something nice about that. That would be, if you... So the idea of having powers is, of course, very attractive. Yeah. And so, here's the thing.

You're the only one in the world who has powers it's very special this thing that you have but your only power is you get to just give covid to someone how do you feel that that's your power i i turn bad so fast i do it I give it to everybody for petty reasons. Like anyone who, I mean, I wouldn't do it for like the way you do. We're like, oh, Søren hasn't had a turn yet. He deserves a fair shake with COVID. I would do it where there's like, I see somebody on my ring and their dog shits in my yard

and then they just walk away. And I'm like, oh, that guy's getting covid i think i would do it uh to like because there's a lot of schadenfreude with anyone who was loudly uh dismissive of covid like joe robert getting covid and giving it to his kids was like oh this is this is such a gift because you were so proudly wrong about this for so long and And now you have COVID and you, and it hurts when you breathe and that sucks for you. I think I would find someone like that, like a,

a Joe Rogan or a Jordan Peterson or a what's Dilbert's dad, dad's name, Scott Adams, Scott, Scott Adams. Yeah. Someone like that. And I would just give it to them a comical amount of times,

just like, cause they'll get covered the first time and be like all right fine it's real but i beat it and it's not a big deal and i'm healthy and the doctors say it's gonna be fine and then like the next day okay fuck all right so this is so this is now i'm now entering entering week 18 of my 18th different COVID. Doctors are really stumped by this. I get one day off of not having COVID. It's not a false negative. It's true.

And then I don't, I didn't even leave my house this time. I didn't even leave my house to hand Dilbert to the mailman. I stayed inside and i my stupid dilbert shaped house and i got it again i don't i don't understand and then like i would wait i would let like months go by and for everything to get quiet and then for him to just get it randomly i i think that's a great idea I think that if you could ensure that you also weren't killing people, you'd be like, yes, yes, yes. Yes, okay.

This is the safe COVID. This is the just annoying version of COVID. There are so many people I would like to give that to. Anytime Dilbert's dad wanted to get on a plane, no, it's COVID, buddy, for the rest of time. The problem is with those people is I think that they would do it anyway. They're selfish from the jump. And then anytime, like, he would just stop testing at a certain point. He'd be like, I think this is just how I always felt. I think I'm just always this bad. And I can't breathe when I walk upstairs.

Yeah, I'm sure it would make him worse. It would radicalize him in some surprising way where it's like, not only am I never gonna get tested again again i'm going to use this strange peculiar trait about myself and use it to form a cult around my personality yeah now i'm a cult now i'm cult guy right um i didn't ask about you dan how are you doing i'm good man i got this vacation coming up in a few days i'm very excited about costa rica with a mutual friend of mine. It's going to be lots of fun. Mutual friend of ours. I forget which side you're going to. Are you going to the Pacific side?

Yeah. Are you going to try and surf while you're there? No. That's the one thing, not one thing that I, it was something that was on the list only because lots of people told me to try surfing while I'm there there i've never had any interest in

surfing it seems like something that i would be bad at and i would be like like frustrated with myself and not have a good time but so because i have terrible balance but so many people just saying like just do it you're it's costa rica is a great place for that and they have these classes that are like tailor-made for tourists where it's, you take this class by the end of two hours, you will be standing on top of a surfboard riding a wave guaranteed kind of thing. Uh, but they require two people to sign up with classes and my travel partner didn't want to. So I'm like, great.

I just won't do that then. Okay. Kind of looking for a reason not to do it anyway. Are you going, are you going to like monteverde are you going up to yes monteverde is sick dan zip lines and rope bridges and hiking and exploring and hot springs and and mud baths and fishing for me we're doing like a lot of like volcano hiking exploring stuff for the most for most of the trip and then like two days of just straight beach in it at the end okay that's a that's a good way to do it yeah the the jam pack the beginning of it and then kind of like

give yourself what would you in your opinion what's the worst way to do costa rica uh don't don't go down there and on your birthday, throw up blood all night. God. So yeah, we did that. We were, we were on a beach town when I did that just to see what it was to be like, just like give it a shot and, uh, got very scared, got worried. And then we, the trip was not over. I mean, we were, that was before we were about to head up to the jungle.

And so there was an eight-hour bus ride ahead of us. And this was two days after I'd been throwing up and could only stay in bed and dreamt about Gatorade the whole time. And finally, I was like, I think as long as I take some diarrhea medicine and some anti-fond, like stomach settling medicine, before I get on that bus, I think I could make it. And so we did it. And like, we rode this bus up to Monteverde for eight hours. And it was, it was so hard. And the entire time that we were there, or on the way up, sitting across from the aisle from us, was clearly a situation in which a man had followed a woman down to like an ex-girlfriend or like what i don't know what the relationship was she was going to costa rica

he showed up there and now he's there and like he's like he to like prove himself to her it was like a cinematic thing where when it happens in real life it's not so fun yeah and so she's staring out the window looking like like she wants to just smash it and jump out. And he's talking to her and he has a six pack next to him. And he's just drinking beers as he's talking to her about how much he loves her or how much he, and, uh, yeah. And it was, they were young.

They were probably like early twenties and it was just rough. It was like, it wasn't so rough at any point where I was like going to step in and be like, I don't think you should be doing. But it was still like, she didn't want to, she did. It was so clear by body language. Like she just didn't want him there. And she was ruining his trip. It was tough. But anyway, we got there. And then the very first day, there was like a sloth on our hotel. And it was curative to me. It was really good. I was very excited. And then whatever room we were staying in, there was something big slithering around along the top of this room. So I think there was like a giant snake out there or something.

Oh, neat. It was very cool. something oh neat it was very cool that the guy showing up and ruining the trip reminds me so much of this two-week european bus tour i did with my friend and like you're with a giant tour of like 20 and 30 something just people who all sign up strangers who all signed up for this tour and then became friends and you're doing this like whatever it was, 12 countries in two weeks kind of thing. And a guy had clearly fallen in love with one of the other strangers in our tour group. And there was just because that's certainly like a romantic idea for anyone going on vacation if you're single. And now I'm going to have like either meet the love of my life or have like some kind of vacation fling. And I think no matter who ended up on this tour, there was no talking this guy out of it.

He was going to fall in love with someone. Didn't matter who. He was just clearly in love with this English woman that was there and she was not having it. And word had spread to all of the rest of this tour over time it was like hey we lily does not want pete to be around her and we didn't want to like no one wanted to fully ruin anyone's vacation and we also can't like we can't leave pete in amsterdam or whatever like he's part of the tour so we all just like created bubbles around lily for this entire trip and pete was always just like trying to be drunk and trying to find reasons to be alone with her and would pull one of us aside everyone's like i'm trying to be alone with lily and we're like, I'm trying to be alone with Lily. And we're like, I know you can't.

No one wants to tell you why, because we don't know you and we don't know what you're like when you're super depressed. So we all have to pretend that this is an accident every single time. And it's exhausting. God, that only fuels his narrative, I'm sure too. Where it's like, the world is telling me I need to go out on a limb. Yeah. I need to get her.

I kept trying to get her alone every night. Maybe, let's see, what's the last night of this trip? Oh, we're going to stand outside the Eiffel Tower at midnight. That's probably what the universe is telling me to do. Look, man, I know how this looks. It does look very romantic and magical. Yeah. Just pick a different target, Pete.

Anyone else in this city. It's not her. Yeah, that's rough. Well, Dan, well, Dan, Daniel, I'm very excited about this podcast because you gave me homework and I love doing homework. Do you want to tell everyone what we're doing?

Yes. It's another playlist challenge. We did one and only playlist challenge before, which was put together a playlist that you could run to that was going to be contained within 24 minutes and it's going to make you faster and make you enjoy your race this is a slightly different playlist challenge the challenge is you are on a first date with a person you want to be on a date with uh uh i'm putting our ages for this at like high school to college and a little bit outside of college, I think. Is that what I said at some point? Yeah, but I forgot that part, but go on.

It doesn't matter what the songs are not tied to any years. The songs could have come out anytime. You have five songs that are going to be playing in your mix CD in your car while you are driving your date to your destination. while you are driving your date to your destination. Any songs, it's a mix CD you made, and you have any reason in the world for putting them on there. And I'm very curious.

This is certainly a thing that I did in real life. I would never cater a mix CD to a specific person on a first date. But I would have very meticulously put together mixed CDs, or I would have one CD that I thought was an oddball or interesting choice. And I would try to be very subtle about it. I wouldn't have them move into like, hey, I'm picking you up for our date. Listen to these songs. I'm going to talk very subtle about it. Like I wouldn't have them move and be like, hey, I'm picking you up for our date. Listen to these songs. I'm going to talk to you about them. I just wanted this like safety net of a CD

that I could talk about in the background. I love this. I love this challenge so much. Oh, good. I'm glad. Because as you're making it, you realize the traps and you realize what you need to be doing along the way.

I learned a lot about myself putting this together. The traps are, I mean, okay. So what you're trying to do, yeah, you're trying to create, you want songs that are not super well-known, I think. You want songs, but they also feel like they should be. Like songs that feel like, the minute you hear them, you're like, oh, this is good. What is this?

You want that reaction, but you also don't want, you can't oversell yourself and be like, well, what's like, how do I prove that I listened to cool music? Which is like the immediate trap. That's the pit is like, is you want to show off your music. And that's always like the worst instinct in the world. Yeah. I can't, I can't be on a date and someone say, oh, what's this? I'm like, oh oh you haven't heard oh i guess yeah they really only play bass men's out in rhode island no one's i'm not i'm not surprised you haven't heard of them they're called the garbage butts there's never been everybody one of them is just a guy screams

at a bandsaw for a while it's i'm into it everybody wants that for themselves that somehow they are like the the arbiters of esoteric music, but has never been an irredeemable quality in another human being. Yeah. Even when they're right, even when a song is good, it still like puts you off if there's somebody like that. And so like, that's, it's so clear as I was making this, I was like, don't do it. Don't be that guy. And so like the songs that I was really- I'd do it anyway.

The songs that I was hunting for were, you also don't want, I think the other side of the coin is that you don't want a bunch of songs that are like, you don't want gimme shelter by the Rolling Stones or something. This is like classically good because it's so boring. It's like, there's nothing there. There's that's milk toast. Everybody knows sweet child of mine gets played on every single classic rocks radio station. Don't put that on your mix yeah and so you want to find songs that are good that maybe they haven't heard of that are just like but like poppy i'll have like a poppy element to them that are good enough that on merit like just on listening alone without even listening to the lyrics necessarily

if you catch some of them it also helps yeah but you're just jumping into the middle of a song where you're like oh oh this is kind of nice that's the feeling you that's all you want and then on top of that if you can achieve it you want that like like a flirty sexiness to the song which is so tough and i love this challenge i love doing it yeah i almost i thought about doing a gimmick for it where i would just do Elvis Costello songs because he is like a Muppety twerp with glasses and a janky voice. And I'm a Muppety twerp with glasses and a janky voice. So every time I played an Elvis song and she liked it, I'd be like, yeah, and people have sex with him. Can you believe it?

So keep that in mind. have sex with him. Can you believe it? So keep that in mind. I did consider just bringing in the first five songs of 40 ounces to freedom by sublime, but like doing it as a slow roll, be like, play the very first one. And then I'd be like, and then I thought I'd jump into this and you'd be like, huh? Yeah.

Okay. No, it's sublime. And then we get to like number five and it's ebb and changed and you'd be like okay that's this is too much um but i i let's uh we should go one to one right back and forth yeah absolutely this first one is a weird one uh i wanted to have a ben folds five song on because ben folds five is my favorite band please tell me brick is the first song for a date it's not it's not okay it's uh ben folds will be a part of our life together if if if we fall in love uh i've seen the band more times than i've seen any other band the song i picked it's called the most obscure pick on here uh but i like it because a it lets me do a lot it lets me mention ben folds and ben folds five something that i could

talk about and i and i'm a lot of these songs for me are conversation pieces if we have nothing else to talk about uh i can talk about ben folds five because I've been to see Ben and that band more than any other concert I've been to. It's also, it rocks. It's, I picked the live version because I think the live version is best. Like there's a studio version and I can explain on the date why. And the other part of it is, it's crucially one of the only Ben Folds Five songs that is instrumental. So I think it's important to start out this date that way to not get distracted by talking. We have an opportunity to just have some background noise right in the beginning that sounds cool while we're chatting.

You know what I'm realizing now? Yeah. Go on. It might be aggressive to occasionally have screams. I mean, it's a live version, so you're going to get screams. Here's what I'm realizing. I'm pretty sure that that's the Pulp Fiction riff. Is it?

Oh, it might be. You're setting it up nicely because it's like you're it's exciting. The energy is upbeat, which is kind of what you want. And kind of it is what you want. And I mean, obviously, you don't know this about mushrooms because your parents listen to this podcast. But the way that mushrooms work is like they set you up really nicely at the beginning for an adventure. Like the feeling you get at the very beginning is like this euphoria. And I think that's kind of what you also want to achieve on a date is you're like, I'm going to set the mood and it's going to be fun. And here, look, isn't this fun?

Yeah. Okay. So I've got a song for you, Daniel. I'm doing the same thing. I'm like trying to set it up. This is also the live version of Theme from Dr. Pizer by Backfolds 5. This is also the live version of Theme from Dr. Pizer by Ben Folds 5. I have chosen a song that I think is so fun and like fun in a bunch of different directions and also very kind of poppy and good that it really walks that line of like, why isn't

this song more popular? This is a song, and I'll tell you about the artist afterwards. An artist named Paul Williams called Nothing On Me. Oh! This is a song I absolutely love. It always puts me in a good mood. Do you know who Paul Williams is? It sounded familiar. Doesn't it? love. Like it always puts me in a good mood. Do you know who Paul Williams is? It sounded familiar. The name sounded familiar, but...

And I was like, this song fucking rules. Who is this? And I started listening to more of his stuff and it was all really good. And I was like, how did this slip past me?

And then I looked him up and he's the Alex Horn on Taskmaster in New Zealand. Whoa. Yeah. So he is a comedian first. Like when you try to look him up, you're like, Paul Williams, Paul Williams. There's a lot of them. Paul Williams, comedian, that can't be it. And then you go back and it's Paul Williams, the comedian created an album back in like 2017. And it, it's so good. It's unbelievably good. And like, if you look at the reviews of it, everyone is like,

so it seems like he just made like a really earnest pop album. And he does it. It's great. I was... So how did you first hear this person? I found it on Spotify. I had like a happy mix

that I was just like going through and then I burned through it and so obviously spotify then starts adding other songs that are similar in tone i feel like we we covered uh data brokers on the show recently uh for anyone who doesn't know this like if anyone has ever had fears that like your iphone was listening to your conversations or your or your your smart speakers they're not but they don't need to because they've so much data has been collected about you yes the companies know everything they need to know like like no one needs to activate the microphone in your phone because you you you just freely google and Maps and email and your information is out there. So this is very much like an algorithm that is so highly attuned to you specifically that they're like, oh, yeah, the band fronted by the guy who is the host of Taskmaster New Zealand. This is right up Soarin' specific alley.

They just, yeah, they got me so good. This is one of those circumstances where I'm like, yeah, AI rules. Yeah. Good. We should be targeted toward more often. Yeah. Um, don't ever let me pick my own artists again. We didn't even get to it, but like you're, you're going to love the, the verse of, I mean, the chorus of this day. I'm like the whole song is really, really good. He's got another one called, um, number one that it's, he's like, let me be your number one. Let me be your Anthony Bennett. Uh, and Anthony Bennett was, uh, the first draft pick of the Cavaliers back in like 2017. He got in the middle of the song. He's like, I wrote this song straight after the draft. And it is sort of like a funny song, but like Anthony Bennett shouldn't have been chosen. Everybody agrees. Like he was a terrible first round pick. Cause

nobody knows who Anthony Bennett is anymore. And he's like, that's me. I'm not the first. I know you don't. There's other people out there. There's other people you'd maybe want better. But let me be Anthony Bennett to you. Let me be your number one. Fantastic.

Anyway, his album is wonderful. And I think everyone should listen to it. I was worried about that pick when it started because the beginning of that song, I'm like, man, sorry, it's a first date. Are you going to

dump her on the beach at night? What's happening here? And then it really picks up. Oh boy, does it? And that's what I'm thinking is like at the beginning,

you're going to pick somebody up. You start that song 10 seconds before they get in the car. Okay. Oh, I feel good about this so far. Let me hear number two.

Here's, so, there's a couple parts to this. I hate to do'm feeling good about this so far. Hurling here. Number two. Here's so there's a couple of parts of this. I hate to do it. It's a really shitty behavior. Hold on. It's a show tune, isn't it? No.

I think, uh, I think you'll really marvel at my restraint with show tunes on this, this five song album. Uh, this song is from my, my, my rock and roll band, Lunch Money Criminals. Oh my God, Daniel! The band that I played in high school and college. It's called Last Song, and it's awesome. There was that time when I wrote all about our lives. It took me years and that's all right. And you got a real business and I'm wasting all my time And now I think I'm free

It's a fun song and it's so, that's not necessarily a thing I would do on dates. I wouldn't like have my band playing in the car when I pick people up. But I very much, I think this honors the spirit of me when i was younger that like if i i would not miss an opportunity to mention being in a band and if i would meet girls i would definitely be like hey come see my band play come watch me play music and and and sing and dance and be a rock star for a while here's what pisses me off about it i think well hold on i'm not done okay all right go on talking go All right, go on. Talking. Go on, go on, go on.

About this amazing time in my life when I was a rock star. I think the reason I would put it on a mix CD now is, A, I'm still very proud of being a rock star. And B, I think there's something corny and earnest and really, like, putting it on there as a bit to impress another 36-year-old. We're like, oh, this is just, that voice you're hearing on the Oz in the background, that's a little person I like to call 17-year-old me.

So what don't you like about this, the rock and roll band with me and my brothers? That's not what I don't like. What pisses me off about this selection on your list is that it checks all the boxes. And I hate that about it. Like it's good. It's you listen to it and you're like, yeah, this belongs. It's like, it fits. It's got the right energy. It's optimistic. And then it also is like, if the circumstances arise where she does say something about it, where she's like, this is, what is this?

This is good. If you say me, that's it. And so it's making me mad is all. Because I didn't want to, at beginning i was like no you shouldn't do that don't put yourself on there of course not no but it's an objectively like it belongs on the list so good one dan okay so anyway this is my band uh the next song i have on here is a song that i've actually played for you before the circumstances were that we were all in um austin texas for south by southwest we're getting a ride home from an uber or a lift and i'm in the front and the person's like hey do

you want the aux cord and i was like sure and michael and you i think from the back were like it better be good don't fuck this up like better, you better pick the best song you have. And so I was like, I know exactly the song to go for. And it was a song that I listened to frequently. I've never gotten tired of that. I think is like a really great song that, that rocks. And it has like a really cool feel to it. And it's a song by the Alabama shakes called always.

All right. Are you familiar with this one? Do you remember it? I don't remember it. I know Alabama shakes though. Here you go she really goes for it you know because albert's alabama shakes and like it's such a fun cool song that's a blast yeah and i can i i certainly don't remember

the first time i heard it but it definitely it was the right choice to play in austin with all of us sitting there that's absolutely the right answer that big guitar at the beginning of it you're like oh this is yeah this is right this is the aesthetic for here um and that was a song that it's a song that like, I've never, ever, I listened to it frequently and every time it comes on, I'm like,

yes, yes. I love this song. And I think that it covers a lot of different genres too. It has like a feel to it. That's not, it's not like aggressively rock. It's also not,

it has like a bluesy element to it. It's just, it runs the gamut. And I feel like it's a great song that there is the chance that your date in the middle of a conversation would stop and be like, this is good. What is this? And that's, oh, that's the dream. Okay.

It reminds me a little bit of my next pick, not the song at all but but uh you've got a a female fronted song you pick yes oh that's by the way yeah that's very intentional yes yeah so my next song is is uh the game very classic fiona apple feel it's just like driving piano it's a little dark everything that i love about fiona is like felt in this song and i i not accidentally will mention fiona apple or like anita franco or alanis morissette anything i could do very important for me to be like hey i have heard of women in retrospect is like not the the most clever trick in the world to just be sitting in the car and i mean like oh yeah i like fiona apple and let's see books charlotte bronte uh favorite actor

she's a book right charlotte witherspoon oh good piano. I forgot that this is also a sexy song. You get some horns in there. It's fun. It's a great song.'s like yes it is undeniably sexy yeah um that's a that's another thing that i didn't bring up yet is it too early is it too early for for sexy no because it's it's on the album no so it's all about these layers right like you can each one of these songs should have a layer a a sexual element to it. Yeah. Because you don't just want like good songs about suicide. That's

like the worst choice you can make, but songs that feel like I could either just have a conversation with you to this song, or maybe we can make out to it and it wouldn't like, it would work well in both circumstances. Um, that is a good song. That's good choice it has good pianos has good horns it's nice and fast and it's fiona apple so i you know my feel uh wait is that not fiona apple no but go ahead what's your next one who who is who is that what's up who was that wasn't fiona apple no that was the game the The game. Yeah. Okay. Okay. Well, I've also chosen several women artists on mine. And for good reasons.

I mean, you're not going to bring it up in the middle of a conversation or anything, but I assume that it's nice for a woman to be on a date with somebody who clearly listens to female-led groups on their own time. Yes. Does that make sense? Yeah, yeah. Seems important. And not in a way that's like, I'm gaming the system or anything.

I genuinely like these artists. I also recognize that that must be comforting. So my next song is by Christine and the Queens. Have you ever heard of Christine and the Queens? No. Okay. This is a song called Tilted, which is a song that every single time that I've played it somewhere where there are other women present, they're like, this is really good.

And I've listened to other Christina and the Queen songs and been like, no, it's not working. I don't like any of these other ones. But this one rules. And then the chorus is like, can't help it if we're tilted. I'm actually good. Can't help it if we're tilted. It's a very good, like very chill. It's very chill.

Like chill is the word that springs to mind. Kind of a sexy song too. Kind of sexy and like kind of you feel safe listening to it when you're driving that's yes it's important and it seems like there's a lot of repetition in it and even like not just in the vert the words of the song but in the uh lyrics is what they're called not just in the lyrics of the song but also in just like the core progression not just in the words of the song but in the sounds of the song the noises and the words um also the then i I was listening to these songs, trying to figure out what I wanted, I watched

the music video for it. And it's just dancing. It's a bunch of people dancing up on a cube. And it's so good. It rules. It's worth watching the music video for as well. Tilted? Tilted.

Yeah, by Christina and the Queens. All right. I have a bad quality. And I don't know if i still have it but i definitely used to have it a thing i used to do a lot that i know is bad is i would have a song where i had like a pre-planned story associated with it and i think this this it must say something about me that like i'm planning for a a date to go so poorly that I need to take over and start talking for an extended period of time. Like, I would do a thing, a song would play, and I'd have, like, a canned, like, essay about the song that I would foist upon whatever woman was my hostage. Like, hey, you're in my car.

Here's a six-minute anecdote. I used to do it. I would pick a song with a story behind it that I knew. Like Layla. I would do it for Layla by Derek and the Dominoes. That was very rich for me because there was a lot of opportunity for me to talk about things uninterrupted. I could talk about

it's called Derek and the Dominoes by accident because the band was actually Eric and the Dynamos, but they were introduced and the person introducing them said the wrong name at a show so they just rolled with that there's also like two very interesting stories associated with one associated with why this particular song was written and another about like a really uh dark but kind of interesting postscript to the song it's just like very rich in terms of a song with ancillary stories uh and i would like find reasons to play that song around people so i could jump into these stories as a way of like

like proving that i'm a good storyteller and also like managing my own anxiety of like okay i'm gonna just jump into something like here's some familiar territory. I think that's not crazy. I think that's a really good decision and a smart thing to do, especially you can't guarantee that the other person is going to carry their end of a conversation either. It's, I, I, I wonder if women would agree because it was definitely something that I subjected several women to and, uh, like just delivering these prepared essays. There's actually a modern song that speaks to the kind of thing that I did. It's a song T-shirt tucks by the whole study.

One of my favorite bands. They have a lyric in the song that goes, there's a boy and a girl who were draining their beers. He said Stalin was a weatherman to start his career. And Johnny Cash was in the service when the news came through the wire. And it's weird how you feel when bad people die she said yeah i guess whatever all your fun little facts are never going to keep us together and as soon as i heard that lyric i was like oh no it's that thing i do my personality it's a series of facts accumulated over time that i hope will please people and's a recognizable enough personality trope that there's a whole fucking lyric about it.

Yeah. And why it's bad. But I've mentioned two songs here. Both Layla by Dark of the Dominoes and T-Shirt Tux by The Hold Steady. This is neither of those songs. This song is called Enough.

Just another great song. Yeah. So here's the thing that I'm just now noticing, and I'm a little worried for you, Dan. What's up? All your songs so far are very piano forward in the beginning. Okay. What is that a worry for? Because you're playing all your cards right off the top. She knows your genre.

She knows a lot about you that I don't think you're meaning to necessarily give away. Okay. I think that- You think the thing that I've given away is that I like piano too much? Yes. I'm giving that away? Yes. Yes.

I think that you, all these songs are like, if was the to listen to these few songs and be like i can get this guy like i know what this guy wants hey hey let me play this uh if i could think of a single song to begin piano heavy that's not ben falls five i mean like name a billy joel song name an elton john yeah that's true yeah i'm gonna oh new york state of mind this is gonna blow his mind hey should we listen to new york state not mine next and you'd be like yes we should um i i think that they all begin kind of similarly okay and i'm worried about that for you okay well it's too late i burned the CD and the date's tonight oh man I can't believe you have a place to play a CD I was driving my friend

Bernadette around a couple weeks ago we were coming back from the city and in my car with my CD player and she was just so I take for granted how shocking it must be for someone in their 30s in the present to see the same massive CD wallet that I've had since 2003. Right.

Because there's just no reason, there's no reason for anyone to have those anymore. And I'm not buying new CDs or burning new CDs. So it's like the exact CDs that I've been carrying around since 2003 just accumulating and she sees like my high school handwriting scrolling you know Seussical on a clearly burned CD with cool names like names that you thought would be really fun and neat oh yeah yeah you said the song was called enough but you didn't say who it was by, did you? No. Who is it by? Can I hear it?

Do you want to hear the song again? No, I want to know who it's by. By this New Jersey band. Okay, hold on a second. Hold the fuck on. Is this song Enough by the Lunch Money Crimin money criminals uh-huh

that's weird you double you tried to sneak that right by you told a story about some other bands and like really set it up that oh here's two other songs by two other groups it's not by either of them, but here it is. It's called Enough. And so I was like, try to do the good, the journalistic thing and be like, well, people are going to want to know who this song is by in case they like it.

Dan, who is this by? And I didn't realize I was putting my thumb on you, but Dan, you can't have, you don't get to. I don't, okay. No wonder it was Kayano Forward. It's the same band. Yeah, I couldn't interrupt. What am I going to do? Lead with a bass solo?

Come on, Soren. Pull your head out of your ass. We didn't have guitar, buddy. Do you sing on this one? Yeah, backing vocals for all of them, yeah. Yeah, good. So what happens? Let me just hypothetically be on the date with you. I get to the second song, and I do the thing you want, which is...

This was the fourth song. We were on the fourth song now. I know, but I mean, I get to the second one. Your second one is a Lunch Money Criminal song. Oh, that's right, yes, yeah. So I get to that one, and I say, who is this? This is... this and you say tell me what you say uh i'm i'm this age yeah say oh thank you that's my rock and roll band from when i was a kid oh cute oh that's really

steer into it being a joke and i talk like yeah, yeah, it was a really great time in my life. Like me and my two older brothers, we were playing all over the state of New Jersey and like winning competitions. It was super fun. I look back on it and smile a lot because my relationship with my brothers is one of the strongest things in my life. And it was just like a fun time. Who gets to be a little rock star for a while?

That's really cute. It's dorky. Like, I'm not going to make you listen to the whole song. It was fun. That's really fun. Did you put that on here for me? Yeah. It's like a goof. Yeah, it's a fun little joke. Alright, now let's fast forward

until we get to the fourth song. We're talking and at a certain point I stop and I'm like no, I don't want children. And then I say and then I say and then I say this is good who's this that's us again you need to know that I'm also like a comedian

so like I'm gonna do bits but hold on this is your bit this is the exact same band from you and 17 you put two songs yeah separated by one other songs the first one the first one you heard was was last song which is like like kind of a fun spiteful snarky song and this one enough is about uh falling in love in the summer on the jersey

shore you know okay it's different two different flavors you've put two, the first one was cute and jokey. This is now a second song. This is you genuinely listen to your own band is what you're telling me. I mean, on a date. Yeah. When I'm trying to, when I'm trying to get hard.

Sure. Here's the, here's what I'm worried about. I'm going to be so mad if I did all this work and your third song is a lunch money criminal song I mean if your last song yeah if your fifth song last song titular moment for

the song called last song that's pretty fun so on is a new fan join the street team alright let me play you my fourth okay and then we'll determine how mad I need to be, because you are a comedian. And if you tell somebody that, that's like Chekhov's comedian. You better have your comedy in threes at that point. And if there's no third Lunch Money

Criminal song, I don't know how I'm going to feel about it. My next song is Not By A Woman. And it's actually a cover. Do you remember there's an old, I don't know if it's Motown or do up, but it was a song called this magic moment. Yeah. Well, Lou Reed does a really cool greasy guitar cover of it. That is not the name that I wanted to hear. Oh, you don't like Lou Reed. That's fine uh just listen to it this magic moment so different and so new was like any other until i met you all right So this one is a, admittedly a dark horse on there.

Also very on the nose in that this magic moment is exactly what you're hoping for. Like you're like, you're really forcing it down their throat. How to feel. It's, it's a cover that I think is very cool. And I really enjoy it.

I think that he, his voice is so weird and i think that the guitar in it is so rad and there's one point in it which says everything i want i have and the way that he says it there's like a lot of feeling behind it and it's also a song that gets that makes me feel good in the same way we're like you're trying to like psych yourself up a little bit uh yeah this is a song that when it comes on i'm like i feel very confident i feel very cool when i'm listening to this song and i need that maybe at this point in the day because now we're into song number four we're getting close to dinner

and so like this is a song like helps me you made dinner reservations i just did the cd we're gonna what we're gonna we're just gonna walk we i know the area that's got a lot of restaurants and we're going to kind of like walk around and see how we feel and like, check out some menus. Uh, she doesn't know yet that I've made reservations at all six of the restaurants there, just whichever one she lands on, that's where we're going. And we will definitely have a table. Um, and yeah, so Lou Reed, uh, I, it's not somebody you enjoy from what I get. uh i it's not somebody you enjoy from what i get when i got i mean i i i don't dislike him i just i you know like a lot of greasy grungy songs about being strung out on heroin is that really my cup of tea yeah he's got a lot of sad songs this this cover won me over because i do like an interesting cover and especially when it when it's not super recognizable as the original.

Like earlier today, I had Mountain Goats going on Spotify, and they have a cover of FM by Steely Dan that just has absolutely no interest in honoring that original song. And it's great. It rules. That's good. It rules. That's good. It's good to hear you say that. The same was as Lou Reed,

that it really, it convinces you, oh, this guy wrote it and he had a completely different motive behind writing it. Like the words are all the same, but it still like feels like a completely different song about a different thing. This song, I'm not sure if this is what it's actually from. David Lynch, I think is maybe one of the best

people at picking out really good music for his movies. And this song is from Lost Highway. And there's a moment where this mechanic sees Patricia Arquette in a car and just in seeing her, starts to fall in love with her. It's great. It's a beautiful scene. It's very slow motion.

And it's a song that I feel like evokes that really nicely, of seeing somebody for the first time and being like, fuck, yeah. and it's a song that i feel like evokes that really nicely of like seeing somebody for the first time like fuck yeah and it's not lovey-dovey it's not cloying it's very um it's like i don't know this is a weird way to put it but it's it's mahogany it's a mahogany song all right uh number five do you know the band the dead weather no oh it's a super group it's allison mosshart from the kills yeah dean for tita from queens of the stone age jack lawrence from the raconteurs and jack white holy shit yeah it's a fucking incredible super group fronted by a woman.

This song's called Away To You, it's by Lunch Money Criminals. Fucking did it. I'm gonna skip ahead a little bit, Looking out the window to a rainy day Well, it's not like I have to be anywhere anyway I'm gonna skip ahead a little bit, because these guys really rock out at the end. Okay, go for it. It's like that. It's like that as a song. It's like that. It goes like that. Like really just instrumental stuff and hits at the end.

We used to close out shows with it. I'm mad at myself for giving you so much credit of the first song. Like it belonged on the list. I'm like angry at myself for saying to you, this checks all the boxes. This is really good. Yeah. Because you really fucked me here. How so?

I spent so much time thinking about how to make this perfect. And you want to know what I called mine? What? thinking about how to make this perfect. And like, you want to know what I called mine? I called mine Daniel's first date thinking maybe he'll want it. Maybe he will take this and he'll use it. So you're not only would this be good for me, this is universally good. Your issue is that you don't think that I put any work into it? No. your issue is that you don't think that all you did put any work into it no my issue is that you put all that work in in 11th grade and that's where all the work went and you and then you just

and and now you've picked out some songs you how many do you have to choose from 14 20 and you picked these songs so that you could be like at the end you could be like she's reeling at this point because get through number four and then you get to number five and it's laughter again she can crack up because same voice she knows that voice now at this point she knows there's that lack of guitars she knows what she's listening to immediately she's like you don't have to say anything it's interesting that you think only three of these five songs are lunch money criminal songs are all of them yes sir do you have any idea how hard it is to slow play that

especially after you put the idea in the air with that sublime thing. This was a fucking tightrope walk. The YouTube cover in the beginning with girls screaming in the audience. That's us live. The song is called the game. I never said it was by Fiona Apple. I thought you said it was called the game. I thought you said some band called the game and I was like crazy because there's already

a hip hop artist named The Game. Oh well. No. Check the tape. The Game is the name of the song. All five baby!

You listen to an EP you stupid fuck gotcha! What was the number three song? Number three was was theme from Dr. Pizer cover that we did then last song by Lunch Money Criminals, then the game by Lunch Money Criminals, then Enough by Lunch Money Criminals, then

Away to You by Lunch Money Criminals. I'm so... Okay. Dan, you had a great band. The songs are great. When I said tonally, they all sounded a little similar. Maybe it's because they're come from the same fucking band. This,

have you done this before? Tell me you've done this. No. Okay. This was all the whole, the only reason I wanted to do this episode was to do this to you. This could not have gone better for me. I've been thinking about it for months.

You don't deserve my last song. I'm less stressed now. Like I'm lighter. A weight has been lifted because this... I was so worried you'd be like, hold on a second. Is this like, like the second song you would know what was up or the second iteration of this, you would know it was up.

I, I. You weren't playing enough of them. It wasn't like there wasn't enough of the song for me to ever, but then like, I should have known as soon as I was like, Oh Dan, I'm a little worried for you that these all sound so similar. I should have fucking known what you were doing and then and then i was so stupid thinking oh man he put two of those songs on here that what a big mistake that is a huge mistake to put two songs and to try and like hide them by scattering them in the middle somewhere

by scattering them in the middle somewhere. Oh, Daniel, you fool. And then when you said, I'm a comedian, I was like, okay, there's a chance his third song is one too. All right. So that's the bit. He starts off normal, puts one in, get something else. Then you get two more. I was like, this is a waste of my time. But I didn't realize what a colossal waste of my time this was. Yeah. And that's really, I have to appreciate that. I guess. It's also, it's like,

it's like one of our longer podcasts now. So it's a waste of our listeners time. This is, this is, they're all on YouTube. You said at the beginning, they're all on YouTube. Uh huh.

Ah, of course you have spotify yeah why did i think this was gonna be anything other than this i'm i'm angry and so i a thing that's great about this podcast is that we encourage each other to feel their feelings so like be angry um but also be professional finish it out what's What's your number five date song? Come on. It's going to be so humiliating now. Maybe it'll be good enough that she'll give you a smooch.

What is it? Humiliating. All right. Here we go. I picked a song that I thought, ah, this is the turn. This song is going to be clearly different than the others. And it's a little slower. It's still a very...

Oh, God, I'm so angry at myself just trying to describe it. It's a song that's maybe... It's another cover. It's maybe the sexiest lyrics of any song I know. And it's dark and a little like, uh, it's just a little freaky. And I want her to know that I have that going on.

Crazy. This song is called the game by lunch money criminals. The song is called, this is originally by TV and the TV on the radio, which is a song called a wolf like me, but this is a performance by Lira Lynn and Shovels in Rome. So the song is about somebody turning into a, yeah, bust that box, gut that fish. Bust that box, gut that fish.
