like slipcase cover okay but it's like the fucking coolest it's the artwork like oh crazy
oh it's tight are those are those blue tapes? There's no information.
Hold it up again.
It's almost like an x-ray of teeth.
That's what I take it as, but I don't know if that's really what it is.
Is it a paper O-card?
It's a paper O-card.
Brother, go to blue tapes.
There's a white one.
Wait, these aren't blue tapes.
No, these aren't blue tapes.
Blue tapes are blue.
Yeah, blue tapes are blue, and they have blue shells usually.
Yeah, but same thing.
The shell is the artwork, right?
Well, not even it is the artwork.
This could be part of the show.
I know, but what I'm going to say is...
We have a cassette podcast.
This could be content for it.
Do you see how long the tape is?
It's longer than a normal tape, Joe.
Yours are bigger.
It's like the shittiest
wall noise.
Oh, really? They went through all that?
You went through the dopest
packaging for the shittiest
material.
I hope it sounds like that.
Do that again, Dave. That was pretty good. I hope it sounds like that. Well, they spent...
Do that again, Dave.
That was pretty good.
It's like...
Peas and carrots, peas and carrots.
It's not wall noise.
It's like...
But the shell, I've never seen
a shell like this before.
Not since the Ninja Turtles, Joe.
I've seen a shell that's knocked me on my socks like that.
What's that, like thermal printing?
Yeah, like a thermal printing or something.
Yeah, that sounds right.
I don't know. Maybe we have a contest.
Maybe somebody tells us. You describe it and someone tells us what it is.
The tape sucks, so that's why I wanted to just talk to you about it.
Well, don't say that.
Well, that's what I'm talking about.
Actually, you know what? Be that blood.
I am recording this.
You're going to try to cancel me later.
I'll run full speed at you. Cancel you with my bare hands. I hate cancel culture. No, going to try to cancel me later. I'll run full speed at you.

Tabs Out, Cassette Podcast, episode number 158.
I am Mike.
58, huh?
I lost my shoe.
I'm getting up there.
I'm Joe.
100, 158, Dave.
It's crazy how it's still really not that high, and I feel like we do it all the time.
I know.
Well, I'm sorry.
We could be in the thousands by now.
Yeah, a thousand at least.
It's such a laborious task.
Well, you know, if we were true podcasting giants.
I think true podcasters podcast like 10 times a day.
They can't get enough of it.
That's the problem with them.
They can't get enough of it.
You guys, I got to fucking,
I got to go jump through a whole series of hoops
to get you to do these things. Yeah, I've listened to I gotta go jump through a whole series of hoops to get you to do these things.
Yeah, I've listened to like... I like watching you jump
through hoops. I've listened to some
unnamed podcasts, and each
person plugs their own individual podcast.
You listen to, oh, a podcast that
you're not going to name. I'm not going to name.
It's not called the unnamed podcast.
Each person's like, well, please subscribe to
my five other podcasts.
Well, Dave, while we're at it,
oh shit, time's running out in the meeting because we spent
so much time talking.
Oh, we got
You think we can
do the show in ten minutes? You think we can wrap
this up? Oh, yeah. Okay, we got a bunch of tapes. We're just gonna
play them. We can at least get to maybe the first tape
and then come back. Yeah, we
got ten minutes to get to the first
Well, we got nine minutes and 40 seconds.
Are you going to hang something on those walls
or are you just going to keep them just blank in the back?
Oh, behind me here?
Yeah.
On this side?
Oh, there's a mirror or something.
Oh, whoa, whoa, whoa.
There's tapes.
All right.
Yeah.
Should I go over here?
Yeah.
So you guys think we're going to get to the first hit and that's what you're
saying nine you don't think you don't think you're going to bring up something else about
dave's walls or um maybe cd's walls and you stop it you're you will get you will get the
canceling that we were referring to we can just do it right now who wants to go first
dave goes first let dave go first. Let Dave go first.
Let poor Dave go first.
Well, if I go first, that changes my plans.
Oh, oh, oh, oh.
Well, let me ask you this, Dave.
It changes your plans how?
Like, they get scarier, they get funner,
they get sexier.
Usually, I don't like to do
like a sleepy ambient thing
right off the bat.
You don't put them to sleep.
I want to go first.
This is an energy.
I don't mind doing it in this block.
I just don't want to start the show off.
So you're saying you got a boring ass one
coming up but you don't want to lead with it.
I'm going to start high energy.
I'm on to your shit, Dave.
Okay, start it off high energy,
Joe. Just give... South City Hardware.
South City
Hardware, huh? On Third
Kind Records. Who's Third Kind Records?
Third Kind Records are from jolly old
England. Brexit
made. Oh, England? Brexit made. Yes,
they are. Oh, Brexit? Exactly.
They are from there. They are putting
out... They put out the...
I'm not going to list everything. What did they put out?
What am I? What am I? Discogs office?
I'm not listening at all. I know, but you know things.
I know a lot. You've got your finger on the
pulse. My friend.
Alright. Many, many people... Well, it's called Redirected
Media. Shut up.
Shut up. Many, many people tune into this podcast.
They hear me, but sometimes they say, Mike, many people tune into this podcast. They hear me.
But sometimes they say,
Mike, save a little bit.
Just save a little bit.
English label, but American artist.
Well, at least recorded live in South City, St. Louis.
In South City.
Okay.
And it comes in one of... What are these called?
That's a tape.
Brad Pack?
Is that a Brad Pack that just folds open?
I think so, yeah.
You're dealing with a die-cut piece of paper.
Like Jesus on the cross.
It's like when they hung Jesus from the cross, except it's paper.
Dimensions are a little different than the cross.
There was a paper cross, Mike.
You may not know that.
They didn't have wood back then.
That's what they crucified Paper Mario on the paper cross.
They figured out how to process trees
into paper before they realized they could chop it up
into blocks for
structures and things.
We got the translucent
purple shell
imprinting on one side.
That's very nice.
Yeah, it's nice. But second side,
they didn't spring for the B side. I don't get why people aren't imprinting. It's. That's very nice. Yeah, it's nice. But second side, they didn't spring for the B side.
Why don't people...
Yeah.
I don't get why people aren't...
It's not extra, right?
From what I hear...
Everything's extra.
From what my sources are telling me,
it is not going to be extra
to print both sides of the tape.
Yeah.
It's just a classy look.
Imagine walking down the street.
Imagine somebody's walking to you.
A fellow's walking to you.
He's got on... I'm picturing it right now.
I'm a little scared.
He's got on like this top.
What's he want?
This real nice top.
Sir, what do you want?
I don't have any money.
I don't know you.
Real nice slacks, right?
Oh, nice slacks.
Six feet.
Six feet, sir.
Six feet.
Where's your mask?
Real nice mask.
Real nice mask.
He walks by you.
His whole ass is hanging out because he's only got the front of the outfit.
He left the back off.
And it's like they sell the back at the same price.
Wait, his whole backside is, there's no?
His whole ass.
No clothing at all?
His whole, he's got no ass.
Wait, he's got no ass?
So basically this tape is a Ken doll on the other side.
Get them imprinted.
How are we on time?
I think we're out.
We got five minutes.
Oh, okay.
All right.
We're looking at daily hardware, redirected MIDI,
32 out of 50, third kind records.
Go.
Redirected MIDI?
Third kind.
Yeah.
I wonder where it was going.
It's like the trolley scenario i've been
trying to go through old i don't know how old this one is but i've been trying to go through
tapes like on tape racks that are like that i don't ever touch uh-huh you know what i mean
i do on that and then this is also in i never really touch things in
um this type of packaging. The paper packaging?
I don't like the paper packaging.
No, I do. Never mind.
This tape is sick, though.
Is it? COVID-19.
It's kind of like Apex Twin meets Footwork.
Oh, I like that.
Then what happens?
Do they get along when they meet?
Oh, yeah. They're having a good time.
They hit it off?
They fight.
It might be like they spar. Do they get along when they meet? Oh, yeah, they're having a good time. They hit it off? They fight. They fight.
No, they don't fight.
It might be like they spar.
Yeah.
The sparring's different from fighting.
Not the way I do it.
Davey Boy, we got, like, probably four and a half minutes.
What do you got? Okay.
I'm going to play this deep learning tape.
This is the boring-ass one, right?
This is the boring-ass one? On? This is stupid. It's not boring. It's just chill. This is the boring-ass one?
On Salmon Universe
is the name of the label. Salmon?
Like the fish? Like the fish.
It's Salmon Universe number two.
Did we get number one, Hallie?
Were there other ones that came with this?
Do you know? Let me see the cover. They better
gave us both. So, basically, the cover
is... Let me take
it out of the Norelco. Yeah, don't put it in the Norelco screen.
You know those pipes and tubes and stuff
that Keith Rankin draws on his covers?
The internet?
I know.
Tubes.
That's not pipes. I'm sorry.
Come on, we're talking about Keith Rankin artwork here.
Show some fucking respect.
The man's a legend.
The man's a legend in the community.
Show him some respect.
Picture a tube or a worm or something
and a Keith Rankin artwork.
This guy took a little sliver of it
and took a picture of it.
Oh, I see. Just the tube.
It's a little specimen.
It's like a bean can.
It's the size of a bean can, maybe.
Yeah, it's like a bean can with a gradient.
But there ain't beans in there.
There's a vortex in there.
This makes no sense to me.
What? This podcast? I just noticed something on the
inside cover.
The inside cover
says, please search Salmon Universe
on Bandcamp.
Instagram and Twitter. Okay, never mind.
That's not as weird because you could just put
SalmonUniverse.Bandcamp.com
and it would be like 15 letters shorter than what...
Never mind.
Never mind.
Yeah, I know.
Come on.
He's giving you the look.
Come on.
I went to podcast school.
I know what I'm doing.
Yeah, right.
I'm beginning to...
It says my internet connection is unstable.
Oh, my God, man.
What is going on?
I need to get that booster.
I'm telling you, 2020 is a dumpster fire.
Now your internet is unstable. All right telling you, 2020 is a dumpster fire.
Now your internet is unstable.
All right, you think I can squeeze in one? Nicholas Law did the artwork for this.
Nicholas what?
Good job.
Nicholas Law.
Getting that little Keith Rankin specimen.
What was that, long?
Photograph.
You know it was.
All right, do I have time to throw one on?
I don't know.
I might need room to breathe. Two minutes and 12 seconds. All right, do I have time to throw one on? I don't know. What do we got? I might need room to breathe.
Two minutes and 12 seconds.
All right.
Eight seconds.
Keith Fools.
Do you want to just come back?
Oh, God.
I already said Keith Fool.
Everyone knows what it is.
I have to finish.
Go.
Go.
Go to the micromachine.
It says less than a minute.
There's no way I can do it.
All right, all right.
I'm closing out.
I'm coming back.
I'm so
embarrassed let's
we gotta start over
just upgrade to professional
shut the fuck up
Keith Fullerton Whitman
what? now hold on
a new thing or what is this?
oh my god this guy is just pumping
out cassettes now.
Really?
Pumping them out, huh?
He is pumping them out.
Really?
Yeah.
He's back.
You got to believe me about this.
I don't know any other way to say it.
I don't believe you.
He's back, baby.
Now the name of this, sit down,
because the name of this cassette is a bit of a humdinger.
It's going to take a while.
There's some punctuation in it.
That's why you needed more time.
I get it.
Two, it's called to a certain extent.
Alright?
But the A is in parentheses for some reason
that I don't quite understand.
Well, you don't have the mind for it. I get it.
Me and Dave get it.
Yeah, I get it. There's no way you get it.
Oh, I get it big time.
It's a cool joke.
No, there's no way this is a joke.
It's like a cool math noise joke that you don't get.
No.
I can't explain it to you right now because we don't have enough Zoom time.
To a certain extent, one and two.
If you updated to pro, maybe I could.
You update to pro.
Me?
Yeah.
Who, me?
Key for all two women.
To a certain extent one it came out like i don't know
if it was a double tape or you or if you could purchase them separately but he's been pumping
out these tapes and i gotta tell you before we get into how pretty released okay that's a good
question one might say self-released i've been hearing a lot of people saying look at this
sticker look at this tiny sticker on the narako case do you see it high-res audio yeah i see that
in the corner of the narako cases it's a tiny golden sticker about the size of what would you
say that's the size of uh quarter inch by quarter inch quarter inch. I don't even know if it's that big.
But maybe, yeah.
Very, very small.
I'm going to... I tiled my bathroom in quarter inch by quarter inch.
Quarter inch by quarter inch tile?
I remember you doing that.
And I was like, Dave.
Dave, I got plenty of time, baby.
It's COVID time.
I was like, yeah, but they make them so much...
Didn't you give up halfway through
and just use one really big one
for the last remaining area?
Just the one wall.
The one wall is one big tile.
I grouted around it, though.
You did the floor, too, but you wouldn't take up the toilet.
Just went right over it.
I always thought that was a mistake.
Some people are claiming.
It's better to just do it and then cut it out.
You know what I mean?
Just do it.
On Reddit?
I'm not going under the bridge, Joe.
I'm not hanging with the trolls.
No, sir.
No, thank you.
Who's claiming?
Twitter?
A true gentleman does not reveal his sources.
All I can say
after years of doing this podcast
Fake news!
It's Obama doing it. Fake news!
158 episodes of this episode.
Who's claiming what?
All I can ask
is please believe me.
That's all I can ask.
Yeah, I believe you. Joe's all I can ask. Yeah, I believe you.
I believe you.
Joe, if I can get to it,
they're claiming that is the name of the label.
Oh, Hi-Rez.
That is what it...
Hi-Rez Audio.
Hi-Rez Audio, but I don't know.
But he's got a band camp.
He's got a band camp.
People know who Keith Fulton Whitman is.
I believe he spent some time living in Massachusetts, perhaps.
Yeah, I think Boston. Maybe.
Ah. Yeah. I think now
I'm pretty sure. I think like
I'm like
77% sure.
77% sure? Yeah.
Let's check and see.
Let's see if you're right.
Inconclusive.
Maybe college there.
A college boy.
Yeah, a college boy.
A Harvard man, perhaps.
He's an educated Noether.
Yeah, he is, but you'll know him from his long, wispy beard,
kind of like a vortex of angel hair hanging from his chin.
What about that time that you gave him a critique?
Ah.
Well, I do have critics' blood coursing through my veins.
So you're talking about there was a gig in Baltimore.
Yeah.
Who played?
Blues Control.
Oh, the Cluster gig.
Yeah.
Higgs was supposed to play, but he freaked out or something. He bail wouldn't play why would why would why would he stick around and play a show why would
i ever get to see daniel higgs perform yeah no i like going to see him perform and then having him
leave either not either not show up or or be there then leave and we had just recently seen um uh k f w right keep going wow you had to do that real fast i gotta say we just saw him at
no fun fest like i want to say i didn't wasn't at the baltimore gig this i'm all living oh you
didn't go to the baltimore stories no i wasn't there yeah we know but i'm pretty sure we had
just seen him we had just seen him at We had just seen him at No Fun Fest.
He was at the gig in Baltimore.
Yes, yes.
And I said that I enjoyed his set, which I did.
Yes.
And then I wanted to give him one.
Some notes.
Can I give you one critique?
And he said, yes.
And I said, too many squibbles.
And I was serious.
And there were too many.
And you were serious.
And there were too many.
There were too many, yeah.
Because you can have the biggest Eurorack system this side of the mississippi but if you throw too many squibbles at me i'll know
it and i'll call your ass on it he was definitely one of the first people i ever saw to play
a big urerack system yeah and i don't from what i remember i don't think he much cared for
my comment he did not i don't think i don't think he's you know he's an intellectual i think you
know harvard man big whiskey beard.
If you would have said squabbles,
he probably understood what you were saying,
but squibbles.
Yeah, come on, man.
That's a comment.
A bridge too far.
Yeah.
Fair enough.
Should we start off?
Anyway, yeah.
Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah.
This is a new tape.
I'm excited.
New tape, yeah.
And the actual tapes,
the actual cassettes themselves.
Let me take that again.
Take it from the top.
And action.
You've got to use a neural code for that.
And action.
The actual cassette.
One more time.
Come on, man.
One more time.
Running out of tape.
Action.
And the actual cassettes themselves
are like really nice
quality cassettes here
they're heavy
I think

Germans.
It's not like a Phillips head or a flat head.
It's like this really crazy shape.
It's a weird one that's like... You know one weird thing?
It looks like a hieroglyph.
You have to buy the bit online.
It costs like $200.
I actually do have a single beef with this tape.
And all the tapes he's been doing.
I got a problem with them.
My issue with all these tapes is
he puts them all in these little cellophane baggies.
These little, like a pack of cigarettes.
Like cigarettes?
You know the cigarettes kind of has
the little thing on the bottom?
That doesn't make you feel cool?
No, I don't.
Well, you know what?
Actually, yeah.
Maybe I should start rolling these cassettes up in my sleeve.
Yeah.
Yeah, I'll roll them up in my sleeve real high.
Sorry, walk around packing the tape.
That's how you get all the ferric oxide.
Keep your spools tight.
No, that's how you get the ferric oxide to the A-side.
You pack a nice tape.
Yeah, I think there's a reason for that.
Yeah, let's play these, okay? I do my thing bitch Thank you. I'm sorry. Thank you. Peace out. Thank you. Thank you. I'm out. Make it on the screen, make it on the screen Make it on the screen, make it on the screen Make it on the screen, make it on the screen

No, I can't eat it.
Sorry to hear that.
It's got to be ripe or it's got to be like just right out of the river.
Yeah, like out of the river or it's been frozen and somebody found it a few years later.
Yeah.
And then that Keith Bolton Whitman tape, it's been frozen, and somebody found it a few years later. Yeah. And then that Keith Fulton Whitman tape,
to a certain extent, won.
And I'll tell you what, in my investigations
that I was doing, I uncovered some information.
And that information is high-res audio
is definitely the label.
Definitely.
It's definitely the label.
And there is maybe 20 tapes here.
20?
Do you want me to count each one of them?
One, two, three, four, five, six, seven.
Yeah, like nine.
I don't know, 10.
There's like a few.
I got a really small window.
I'm looking at Discogs.
But they're all Keith Fulton Whitman.
And I think they all came out this year.
2020.
Yeah, he was bored.
He must have been real friggin' bored.
Nothing going on.
But you can still buy, I think, most of those from the band camp.
I got another Blast From the Past coming up, too, for you boys.
Oh, I'm excited.
You should be.
You want to start right now?
Should I just go right into it?
Yeah, just go right, because I can't hold it.

Your hand's in the toilet water.
Well, let me give it to you.
That's a deep, deep breath.
This is a deep cut. Does anyone want to guess?
I just played Keith Fullerton Whitman.
Does anyone want to go back to maybe around the same time period

There's Pete Swanson, and then you got the other guy.
The other guy literally could be anybody.
And Pete Swanson always had that specific hat.
Pete Swanson had a hat, and then there was...
It's not a baseball hat.
It's kind of like Fidel Castro's hat,
but a little bit different.
Why does it...
You know what would be a super ban?
Would be like,
the other guy from Yellow Swans,
the other guy from Lightning Bolt.
Ah, that would be good.
The third guy from Clipping can get in there.
The guy that's not in Hamilton?
We'll get to that later, my friend.

I know, right?
All I want to say is that
there's a box of tapes here.
We have to give it away to a lucky listener.
And that needs to be...
How that is done needs to...
I am not...
I have too many balls in the air.
I'm not coming up without...
Okay, okay.

we need to figure out a way
to get them out of the house.
Okay.
Throw them out the window, man.
I tried.
In the window, check them out.
I put them out in the curb.
Someone throws them back in.
Okay.
They need to go to one of the freaks
to listen to this.
The freaks.
You got to...
If you want to put them out in the...
If you want to put tapes in the trash,
you got to call the trash company ahead of time.
They say we...
There's once a year where you can take them down
to your local high school
for a special cleanup day.
No, I put mine to the curb.
The trashman said I need to get media trash.
It's a whole special
because of the ferric oxide.
It can't get on the other trash.
Oh, right, right, right.
Fucking Nancy Pelosi.
Mix that with recycling.
Because Nancy Pelosi fucking up my recycling.
I yield my time.
Fuck you.
All right, Joby, you said you had a tape?
Who the hell is that?
What do you got?
By a local guy who I just discovered.
A local?
So when you say local, you're saying Delaware.
Delaware who has a tape label. Wait, hold on. A local. So when you say local, you're saying Delaware. Delaware, who has a tape label.
Wait, hold on.
Tell me about this show.
Hold on.
Hold on.
Ghost Jazz Tapes.
Hold on.
Someone's running an operation,
a tape operation out of Delaware.
He also does Ghost Jazz Books.
He makes zines, too.
Is that a fact?
It is a fact.
I'm just a little taken aback by the fact that someone thinks they can run an operation out of Delaware and not let me know about it.
Yeah.
That's not...
I think twice before you start a tape label on my town, boy.
Yeah, you got to pay the piper, man.
I got to at least know about it.
You look dumb.
No, I look dumb.
At work, Dave Mealy put some music on. He was a co-worker of mine um dave muley put some music on okay the co-worker of
mine co-worker of yours put some music i was vibing to it i was like this is tight yeah
what is this and he said it's he said it's john whatever the dude's last name is
i said I said, who? He says, I was like, who's that?
He worked at blah, blah, blah.
I'm like, what?
What is this?
And it's sick.
So then I ordered some tapes from him.
And he like, it's like on demand.
You know what I mean?
Like I ordered, I messaged him and I was like,
I want to buy some tapes.
And he like listed me like so many possibilities.
You sent him a message.
So basically, the story
you're saying is your co-worker
told you about this guy, John
whatever, who works at blah blah blah
and you sent him a message
and now he's sending you a list
of tapes. Yeah, and I bought some.
This dude's from around here is what you're saying.
Yeah, but he just, I don't think
the additions, it's kind of like Hanson
you want to order it
he'll dub it in real time
and then send it to you
it's not like additions
yeah he's dubbing on the spot
it's always available
always available
he sent me so much I was like I don't know I'll take this
and this Samurais from Hell
and I'll take the Poison Toad Bongo Killer.
So he's one of these...
That's what I'm going to play. He's one of these
people that just, like...
He's got a back catalog that don't quit.
They don't quit. He keeps it all.
He's got it all organized.
And he's also one of those... It's one of those things
where, like, the new tape that he put out... That's not
what I'm playing. Okay. The new tape that
he put out is supposedly a...
How do I put this?
A soundtrack for a kung fu movie in the 70s
that was...
Rejected.
Rejected?
Right.
But I highly think that it's just him.
Oh, sure.
There's a made-up story.
It's like when people...
It's like, you know, this 70s synthesizer guy, you know, and it's just like, it's them.
Yeah.
Yeah.
But I think it's him.
But it's cool.
You know what I mean?
Because he's kind of separate from that scene.
Okay.
You know what I mean?
Who is this guy?
Who is this guy?
He's like his own scene, I think. Person. Woman. Man. Okay. You know what I mean? Who is this guy? Who is this guy? He's like his own scene, I think.
Person, woman, man.
Okay.
So he's a loner.
You're calling this one a loner.
I don't want to say he's a loner because I know he has put out some stuff by people from other places that are real.
But at the same time, I don't know anything about this.
Well, I'm excited to hear this.
And what's the name of the tape again?
Well, this is Operator G.
Operator G.
Which I believe is him.
It gotta be.
And the tape is called The Poison Toad Bongo Killer.
Okay.
And it's a 70-minute long tape.
Both the tapes I got from him are 70 minutes long.
Long-ass tape, man.
Long-ass tape.
Not long like wit.
Like it's longer. Like it'll fit in your it'll fit
in your day the other one it's called like samurai frogs from hell oh shit too mean or something
samurai something i can't remember either way not too way too scary but he gave me so many options
that i was just like i'll just take these two. And they came right away.
I mean,
it took a couple of days,
but you know,
standard,
a couple of days.
Well,
you know,
he had to dub them.
Maybe like,
maybe I mailed them at night.
You know what I mean?
Like,
come on now.
All right.
Fair enough.
But it's like,
you know,
it's hip hop.
It's like,
it reminds me,
it's very much reminds me of the DJ Shadow era of bedroom hip-hop,
of introducing or preemptive strike.
I like this.
I like this.
I'm excited.
For the first time in so long, I'm getting excited.
I'm going to play this tape by Tenth Letter.
And it's called Escape from...
Can you read that?
Go ahead, read it, Dave.
Escape from Atlanta or ATL.
What would you say?
Escape from Atlanta or escape from the ATL?
Atlanta.
Well, I don't know what the ATL is.
Excuse me.
Would you say escape from Atlanta or escape from ATL?
Which one?
Atlanta.
And you say Atlanta too, Joby?
Yeah.
Extremely.
ATL might be an acronym for something other than a city.
That's what I was getting at.
Ass to legs.
Yeah, what if it's ass to legs?
You think this is escape from ass to legs?
Yeah, it's like when you shit yourself.
I would have to
think it's Atlanta, right?
I would have to think that.
I think you're right. You think I'm right? I don't even have to think it's Atlanta. Right? I would have to think that. I'm going to see if you're right.
You think I'm right?
I don't even have to check?
Yeah.
I kind of wish it was...
I don't know.
I wish they did the whole city name.
It wouldn't be so confusing.
We wouldn't be in this situation.
There's not enough room on the cover.
No, yeah.
You can make the font smaller.
Not that font, Dave.
No.
That font? That's as small as it gets. That's make the font smaller. Not that font, Dave. No. That font?
That's as small as it gets.
That's as small.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Like that dripping red font, that doesn't get much smaller.
What's the picture?
I can't see it.
That's another thing.
Here's a weird thing about the layout.
Is it a cityscape?
Yeah.
Okay, what's Atlantis?
Wait, I see the CNN building.
I see the CNN building.
No, I don't know if i do the weird thing that the j card it has like that picture on the outside the black and white picture
of what you still didn't describe it the fucking cityscape man we i thought we all know yeah i
thought that was a joke it is in what way would that be a joke if i joe if i when i don't know
because we're talking about atlanta you're like it's a let me explain something to you when i tell you a joke you're gonna know a joke it's a joke because
you're gonna be cracking the fuck up i'm gonna be cracking up laughing you're right you're right
you're right you're right i'm sorry i doubted you if you're not it was just a prank i don't know
yeah if you're crying if you're crying you've just been pranked if you're laughing if you're crying, you've just been pranked. If you're laughing,
if you're cracking the fuck up, it's because I said a joke.
Other than that, you're just in awe.
Describe the back and then I'll know
if it's a prank or not.
Because then that'll reveal the true intent.
You're talking about
the back of the J card?
The back of the J card, it's all white.
Let me say it.
It's all white
with just that picture
and real small.
What?
So that's a classic prank.
So it is a prank after all.
Jeremy Johnson.
Eric Johnson?
Jeremy Johnson.
Jeremy, okay.
Who was born in South Carolina.
I hate Eric Johnson.
Who's Eric Johnson?
Who's Eric Johnson?
He's a fucking prick.
No, I'm just kidding.
I don't know.
Who was born in South Carolina.
Oh, is this all on the J card?
No, this is on Discogs.
Like we said, there's nothing on the J card.
Oh, right, right, right.
I wouldn't remember because I can't see the picture
if it was hidden in a Where's...
Three minutes.
What do they call...
Do you know?
What do they call Where's Waldo in England?
Where's Royale? No? Where's Royale?
No, Where's Wally.
Where's Wally.
Okay.
Where's Wally.
I like that.
Yeah.
Yeah, it probably sounds good with that accent.
But this dude is now based in Atlanta, which I think is the ATL connection, which now we've
come back around full circle.
I think we can safely say that ATL means Where's Wally?
This is an original soundtrack to a blockbuster about a post-nuclear city filled with cyberpunks and mutant.
What did I write here?
Some sort of mutants and warlords and stuff.
So you wrote this?
No. Yes. some sort of mutants and warlords and stuff so you wrote this no i know yes i wrote this dude
a letter and i was like would you mind making this kind of soundtrack and he fucking came through
this is a lot of carpenter vibes going on maybe there's a low pan reference on here
okay good track titles but what's the movie that this is a soundtrack to? Escape? Are you kidding me?
Escape from Atlanta?
Yes.
But that's not a movie.
That's... Did I not make it clear that it was like a fake soundtrack?
You didn't make it clear.
I kind of glossed over that point.
Yeah, you glossed over that.
It's a fake movie.
Okay, I kind of feel like I nailed it.
I don't know.
I'm not really into fake cinema, you know?
I'm a big movie head, you know what I mean?
You hate it when someone makes
an imagined soundtrack
to an imagined film.
And you're like, no.
Nope. No. Next.
What if they make the movie poster
and they cast it and everything?
Oh, who's doing the poster?
We got Eric Johnson
on board.
All right, cool.
All right, I'm into it now.
Now I really want to hear it.
There's some good track titles on here.
Stuff like...
One Minute 50 Suns.
Edgewood Cobras vs. The Eastside Scorpions.
Oh, so it's like a...
What's that story type?
Rumble on 13th Street.
Yeah. Uh, Warriors.
Alright. It says
Lopin's Return, which makes me think
in Escape from Atlanta,
I think in Escape from Atlanta,
I think it exists in the
Big Trouble
universe. Okay. And
Lopin comes back in this movie.
In Atlanta. I'm, I'm stuck. I'm stuck. Yeah, my, my, my, and Lo Pan comes back in this movie in Atlanta
I'm stuck

and possibly delicate and sharp.
Isn't it?
On the cover.
I find that very sexy.
You think it's sexy?
Like a horny sexy.
It's so sexy.
It's delicate but sharp.
To me,

It kind of looks...
That can also be horny.
That can also be horny.
No, not like a thin, hard.

talking about gauge a pretzel yeah. I don't know that system.
Is the pretzel thinner than the...
You can't make soft pretzels that thin.
They just turn into noodles.
That's true.
Well, there's a delicate balance of the outside shell still being hard,
but the inside being soft.
That's how you make soft pretzels.
You guys know that, right?
You just take a hard pretzel and you boil it.
Oh, okay.
That's not true well

hippies wearing muzzles I'm going to die. We received a message that I wanted to play for you. For me? Dave, stop texting funny jokes in the middle of the podcast.
We're doing this as serious work.
Yes, are you ready to hear it?
I'm ready.
I'm like on the edge of my seat.
Get back on it.
Here it comes.
All right.
I'm listening to the podcast right now.
And I'm pretty sure that Joe has had some beverages.
Pretty sure.
I haven't heard him quite so animated and intense.
And I'm thinking that it's due to beverage consumption.
That's just my thoughts so far.
It's good. Don't get thoughts so far it's good
don't get me wrong
it's good
but it's a different
it's a different Joe
I feel like there's more
beverages involved
that's all I gotta say
and uh
no no
wait one more thing
I'm gonna send
a copy of a tape
yeah yeah
everybody does
do you have any response?
I do have a response. I think I drink too many beverages.
Are you trying to stop?
That hit hard.
Yeah.
My gut really makes me
think about my lifestyle.
And I'll try
to drink less beverages.
I want to just tell this person, this is America.
Joe doesn't have to wear a mask.
He can drink as much as he wants.
Stay the fuck out of his business, okay?
Fuck you, man.
I can drink however much I want to drink.
No, he's probably right.
I've been drinking too much, and I need to drink less.
Back off.
All right.
A lot going on there.
You're right.
We didn't even give those tapes away yet.
Remember that from before?
How we said we were going to...
We didn't come up with a solution.
What does someone have to do?
Dave, tell me something someone has to, like, tweet at us or something.
How many beers did Joe drink?
And how many is it?
Let's see.
How many beers did Joe drink tonight?
Joe, how many beers did you drink?
During the podcast or tonight?
What do you want to do? All night?
Let's just do during the podcast.
Six. Six beers.
Tweet how Joe drank six beers tonight.
I have this big-ass box of tapes to send you.
You know what, smartasses, before you jump on this?
Some of them are actually all right.
What, the beers or the tapes?
The tapes.
I lost my shoe. The beers are the tapes? The tapes. Alright.
The beers are all good.
Alright.
How about... Who goes first this time?
How about Dave?
I don't think he's went first yet.
No, I'll go first this time.
Haley gave me a little stack of new actual spirit stuff.
I did.
Oh, nice.
Recently.
So I'm going to play a tape from that stack.
Although two of them were the same tape,
so I'm a little angry about that.
Hold on.
I purposely didn't play any of the tapes
that Mike gave me last time.
Why not?
What does?
Because they weren't my style.
Are you serious?
They're not your style?
Have you changed your style over quarantine?
They were all like rock and roll bands.
No, I wouldn't have given you rock and roll.
Not you, Joe B.
Yeah.
No.
Yeah.
Huh.
Well, not all rock and roll.
Rock and roll is a very loose band.
What was it?
It was the Beatles tape I gave you?
The Beatles tape?
The Rolling Stones tape.
Yeah, Rolling Stones star me up.
What else?
Van Halen.
And Van Halen.
And that was all rock and roll to you it's still rock and roll to me
old fun cool junk all right so what do you have what are you playing Tim Stein trio tape fresh
demons too scary too scary by the way too scary well I like them fresh who's this well who you
got you said Tim Stein get rid of my virtual background so I can show you
the Fresh Demons cover.
That's an actual
square stage.
Looks like a
couple of Fresh Demons, right?
Looks like a sour dollar painting.
Yeah, why not?
It kind of does, actually.
Speaking of paintings,
did you guys ever see
There Are No Fakes?
No.
It's this documentary about
one of the dudes from Bare Naked Ladies
buying a painting
from
an indigenous painting
up in Ontario.
This is a bootleg.
This is a bootleg.
That ends up being a fraudulent
painting. They figure it out being a fraudulent painting.
They figure out it's a fraudulent painting.
It's so insane.
All the people in it
are completely insane.
You have to see it.
Is it a real painting or not?
Is it of dogs playing poker?
It's a fraudulent, but they uncover
this fraudulent
painting operation.
And it gets really dark and really depressing.
But there's...
One of the dudes from the Barenaked Ladies buys it.
He's like, I'm going to get into art.
Yeah.
You're going to get into art.
I'm going to get into art.
I'm going to buy painting.
But there's these art dealers that are buying it that are like
they're like you can tell right away
like the biggest con artists in the world
are so bad at it
and then it slowly starts
introducing you to like
the fraudulent painting ring
and it's like really really dark
it gets really fucking dark.
It's so bizarre.
I highly recommend it.
Check it out.
What's it on, Dave?
That was Dave's...
No, that's getting cut out.
Don't even bother because that's getting cut out too.
Don't even bother.
Dave's Popcorn.
No, stop it.
Stop trying to come up with...
I want to go back to this and see how much you cut out.
Stop trying to come up with a segment name because it is all want to go back to this and see how much you cut out. Stop trying to come up with a segment name
because it is all me.
The episodes are probably like an hour long.
Dave's Corner.
It's 15 minutes and it's me just talking about theories,
string theories.
It's just you.
Yeah.
Different strings theory.
The G-string theory.
The G-string theory.
That's a myth, Dave.
What?
The G-string theory?
The G-string doesn't exist.
That's the most believable one of all.
The G-string is a myth.
It doesn't exist.
I don't understand the universe at all.
Now you're giving me a horn again.
I have one of the least horny tapes available left.
It makes me angry how little I understand the universe.
You used all your hornies, so stop.
I blew my load way too early.
Now I got this flaccid
ass thing.
It's going to bring you guys way down.
What do you got?
I didn't play mine yet.
I'll go. It'll make sense because, Dave,
what are you playing again? You're playing the Tim Stein what?
Tim Stein Trio, like from Ferris Bueller.
Ah, Tim Stein Trio.
How about I play the Hexbreaker Quintet?
Oh, I wish I had a thing that went with it.
So a trio would be three, and now a quintet.
It's five, right?
You would think it would be five,
but now you'll have to tell me if this is a prank or a lie.
You'll have to tell me if it's a prank or not.
It's only four people,
but it's quintet.
I think that's illegal.
That's a quartet.
Wait a minute, wait a minute.
What's Hexbreaker Quartet?
That's only three.
Wait a minute.
Hexbreaker Quartet.
Quartet is four.
Quartet is four.
No, but there's only three people.
What?
It's Josh Milrod, Jesse DeRosa,
and Matt Regula.
Right. That's a trio.
That's Hexbreaker Quartet.
That's not a quartet.
This tape says quintet.
You're talking about this.
I'm talking about another thing and
not this tape this is all very interesting i'm gonna cut all this out too let's analyze this
some more this all gets cut out this is making me flaccid i told you i told you right this is
not horny like this isn't horny you're telling me i'm being boring by just giving you the
information when really i don't know why your balls are floating around.
Yeah, I want a big time sex tape.
Give me a sex tape.
I can't.
This is what I got.
This is all I can reach.
And I'm telling you, don't... All right.
Cancel your...
What's that on the cover?
Well, I'll tell you everything that this is.
It's a nudie.
Is that a clown?
I'm trying to tell you.
I'm trying to get it out.
It kind of looks...
Okay. Okay... Okay.
Okay.
So Grasshopper and Telecall Powers
both put out LPs on baked tapes.
Long players.
Long players, vinyl platters,
a slab of wax,
and it's so warm
that as soon as you put it on,
it takes you right back to the 60s.
Oh, nice. Right back to the 60s. Oh, nice.
Right back to the 60s.
Weed was weed.
Goodnight, Sweet Traveler.
That was the Grasshopper LP.
And then there was a Telecoil Powers LP
with Zion Traveler.
Wait, did they really?
Oh, no, I'm sorry.
Goodnight, Sweet Prince was the Grasshopper tape.
Zion Traveler...
I fucked up again.
So Goodnight Sweet Prince was the Grasshopper.
You've had some beverages.
Shut up.
Goodnight Sweet Prince was the Grasshopper LP.
Zion Traveler was the Telecall Powers LP.
This is Goodnight Sweet Traveler.
Both those LPs laid
on top of each other.
Sonically. Illegally
possibly.
I don't know if it's even...
They don't have anything...
I don't know what this...
Do they do with each other?
Say it again?
Do they have anything to do with each other?
Do the two LPs?
They're friends. I mean, they like each other do with each other? Do the two LPs? They're friends.
I mean, they like each other.
Right, but they just put two random pieces of music
on top of each other.
Joe, we're talking about outsider experimental.
Experimental, yeah.
Now I'm horny.
Now you're horny.
Okay, you know what?
I'm getting there too, to be honest.
And I could have swore I thought i was just getting tired but
actually now it is horniness this is a very horny episode i can't believe we're gonna ever stop
recording this is super experimental you know what i did once what let's give it a try i did um i
made a quartet uh or no it was a it was a trio i took a an Anthony Braxton, Alto Sax solo LP,
mixed with a Dave Holland solo upright bass LP,
mixed with a Max Roach solo drums LP,
and just let them all rip together.
It sounded pretty good.
It was good.
Sounds pretty cool.
There's some good moments.
You should put that out.
Well, Jay Soliday
is the person who did this
and he sent it to Jesse DeRosa
who I guess approved of it
and put it out on
on bake tapes as well.
And it says that it's like
it's got like the album cover artwork.
They even mix that
in an illegal way.
Oh, what?
With like they took the grasshopper artwork Just cut off the bottom cover artwork. They even mixed that in an illegal way. Oh, what?
They took the grasshopper artwork.
Just cut off the bottom.
Not cut off the bottom, but just put your hand over all the banners
and just see.
No, no. Move it up.
Up.
Up.
There you go. Stop.
I'm completely covering the artwork now. What's going on?
No, no. Up a bit more.
Okay.
No, no.
Down a little bit.
Okay.
Now what do you say?
Scissors.
Horny.
Oh.
Oh, yeah.
There's kind of like a balls and a dick at the bottom.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Is that what yours looks like?
You know what?
I wouldn't.
That's kind of what mine looks like.
I wouldn't even say cover it up.
A little bit bigger.
I wouldn't even say cover it up because the top, how it's split open like a sausage on the top. That's how of what mine looks like. I wouldn't even say cover it up. Because the top, how it's split open
like a sausage on the top, that's how mine looks.
What's that supposed to look like?
You're okay, Hallie.
Alright, well that's what I'm going to play.
I'm going to play this song.
And I gotta say, when you ask the question
like, do these things go together?
Who cares?
You just take two
listen listen you take these two things you already record it you put them over top each
other you sell it again how do you think capitalism works that's capitalism that's
how it works does it sound good no one cares no one cares it's limited though what's the spine
look like give me a good-ass spine.
Okay?
Because 90% of the time, that's what I'm saying.
It's got some fucking backbone on it.

Okay.
I guess we'll just wait around.
Well, Joe's a little bit of an experimental artist.
This is an experimental podcast.
I mean, there's no way around it.
We gave the tapes away. We got everything done we needed to get done. I played, there's no way around it. We gave the tapes away.
We got everything done we needed to get done.
I played Joe's voicemail.
Let's see.
Where'd you go, Joe?
Where were you?
I was looking for that MF Doom tape to see if there was any sort of info on it.
Moe Nichols.
That's just Moe Nichols.
Still, no one's looked up the Mad Lib thing either, huh?
No.
We didn't get there.
How long ago was that
was the episode, was I trashed?
I can't answer this question.
I mean, to be honest, Joe, when I'm listening
I don't remember Joe being trashed on an episode.
No. But you've been smoking
CBD Keef all night, so
no one knows what to do. Yeah, I don't know. I can't
trust you.
He's been smoking blunts of CBD Keef all night. Yeah, I don't know. I can't trust you. He's been smoking blunts
at CBD all night.
Man, I feel like
was I trash?
Was that a bad episode?
Well, I'm going to say this.
Whoever that clown was
that left the voicemail
sounded like he was
either fucked up
or doesn't have the education
enough to show any respect
to his mom.
Nah, at least he's a fan.
You know what I mean?
You know what?
Yeah.
Okay.
I kind of like the call.
It's like,
I think I might, maybe I should call just to see if Joe's got a couple drinks.

No.
Nothing at all?
No, I think I said it all.

Come on. You're so dumb, Mike. Come on.
You were born different than me.

All right, guys.
See you later.
All right.
Bye. Thank you. do Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. so Thank you. I'm going to go. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. so Hey there folks
This episode actually has been
Danged by the AI bots
So it's been deemed
Copyright infringement
Which is why I, Delaware Dan
On retainer of Tabs Out
Business
Is It's my duty to come in and legalize Dan on retainer of Tabs Out business.
It's my duty to come in and legalize Tabs Out again.
So we've got to make Tabs Out legal again with our new initiative that we're doing right now with Delaware Dan. So this episode originally featured, well, what we're listening to right now is, we're actually not listening to what was originally in the original episode.
It was episode 158 of Tabs Out.
Gave up their numbers.
I mean, 158 is pretty good.
Numerologically, it adds up to like probably 12 or something like that.
This is Moe Nichols, also known as DJ Moe Nichols,
presents Jay Dilla, who, you know, if you're from the Philadelphia area,
you would know that he didn't play on NBA All-Stars or any of that, you know,
Madden NFL, but he did do Beats,
and he was pretty
seminal in the Beats
department and actually
Delver Dan marketing is
you know a lot of our
marketing beats
are jingles you know and it's based
on the kind of Jay Dilla style
of beats so
but yeah in this episode originally
Tabzow was you i wanted to feature it
it's a cool cassette made the cut 158 uh number of 158 episode on tabs out pretty good i mean it's
at this point uh the boys got rolling you know dave might have left but i don't know if he left
by this episode because i'm just i'm literally just up and over. I don't have time to really go through the whole episodes right now,
but it kind of makes sense that we've got to do this
because in order to legalize the episode,
it's got to be 80% or more change from the source thing.
Well, we didn't want to completely cut it out,
but we had to make it unrecognizable to bots and also out of respect to J Dilla.
We show our respect by saying, no, we're going to pitch you down, reverse it.
Kind of like that Missy Elliott song.
I don't think they pitched it down.
I think they just put the thing down, flip it.
But you can say that that's like a metaphor for doing pitch shifting on them.
And, you know, that's something I think J Dilla was pretty good with,
was pitch shifting, using reverse, you know that's something I think Jay Dilla was pretty good with those pitch shifted using reverse you know stuff like that it's a good
techniques that you want to use if you want to learn about this you know I
would recommend the dr. Alan Campriotti's a no affiliation at Capriotti's sorry
Alan Capriotti's no affiliation with the hoagies in New Castle County, Delaware.
And I think down the shore they might have Capriotis.
But one time I watched my uncle get in a fight in Capriotis with a dude over barbecue sauce.
And it was embarrassing, but it was kind of funny at the same time.
It's like one of those things that, you know, at the moment is like, oh, my God, we're all going to jail. And, you know, it's like one of those things that you know at the moment is like oh my god we're all going to jail and you know it's a serious issue newcastle state police or county police the county
boys you know you don't want to really be talking to them too much you know especially if you got
you know businesses you gotta look out for you know trades that you did with someone named
bayview bunkie in Baltimore, Maryland.
And, you know, it could be tapes for crabs, a little bit of Old Bay.
You know, I actually broke a couple tape decks doing that, putting Old Bay in there.
And just while visiting, my friend Bayview Bunky cannot use the phone by decree.
Mayor, you know, Mayor Brandon Scott said he cannot use the phone,
so he will not, continues to not use the phone although i just spoke to him the other day i'm not going to say
how not at liberty to say that but uh that's a separate issue i kind of got off track here so
uh tabs out you know uh pretty good podcast almost as good as uh another podcast known as
delver dan no problem because with the delver, there's a number one decree that we declare.
Not just, you know, as like a tax write-off, but in real life, there's no problem.
It's no problem by Delaware Dan.
It's just called Delaware Dan, no problem.
But I'm just telling you that it is no problem with Delaware Dan. and that's kind of how i got the no baby bunkie uh i'm just
going to summarize this but his uh you know his phrase he he also used the same phrase no problem
so i said oh man this you know this dude's ripping me off like i'm ripping off a guy actually named
delver dan sells cars at some point, I think.
There's also some kind of sports-related Delroy Dan type stuff that I think was going on him.
So you can Google it.
A lot of video game characters are named Delroy Dan for some reason.
Don't understand?
Don't understand?
Delroy Dan?
No problem. So call 302-666-D9.
4206, extension 69.
No problem.
Call Delbert Dane.
After this brief message brought to you by Moe Nichols.
It's not Moe Nichols.
Not presents.
Jay Dilla.
That's just for legal because we're making tabs out legal
again that's the whole point of this whole segment is that unfortunately it had to be edited due to
the bots and i said that before but i'm just going to say that again the bots dinged the episode said
you better take this episode down or change it so we took the latter. They had the common sense.
I am on retainer with tags out.
So it's not pro bono,
but it is a serious thing we got going on here.
So, I mean...
