Speaking of pre-recorded, Joby,
excellent segue there, by the way.
That's what I do.
You said something in the last episode.
You referenced somebody

Not a correction, but a listener got in touch with us to solve this answer.
Oh, really?

Well, I got the clip of episode 164.

Back off, Your Honor.
I've got a lot of coasters here. I don't feel like I... Back off, Your Honor. I've got a lot of coasters here.
I don't know if I should do like a...
We should start it with something a little bit
more peppy, I think.
What do you mean you have a lot of coasters?
Oh, okay. I see what you're saying.
Yeah, I've got a lot of airy, ambient,
psychedelic stuff tonight.
I don't like to start the show off with that.

Hold on, hold on, hold on.
Let me write this down.
So who's going first?
Make a note. You're going to go first.

Okay.
I don't want to go first.

I'm still in charge.
Dave tried to make a call, and I ran an audible.
Nice try, buddy.
Nice try.
No, no.
I did two fingers.
Two fingers, not one finger.
I've eaten at many a garden.
Joby, what do you Olive Garden I bet you have

He doesn't even have security
He just goes and sits down
Low pass
Killer
Crust funk
Wow
Spider baby
Spider baby
We recently got some Spider Baby tapes.
I kind of like their black and white little just sticker on the spine.
Spider Baby 48.
I thought you would like that.
I thought you would.
That's why I handed them off to you.
Even though it's handwritten, I'll take it.
Wait, the spine is handwritten? Yeah, like they just got stickers made
that just say Spider Baby and then an empty space.
So they probably got, you know, a thousand of those made.
You think a thousand?
Is that on the neuralgo?
The same thing with the, can you see that?
Like the sticker?
Okay.
Okay, yeah.
So it's like a generic.
It's a generic sticker it's and then
they just yeah spider baby side b side a wait a minute a little blank box does it say side
and then has a blank box for a or b oh you know what's funny both of them say side a oh my god
oh my god i can't i can't get to i can't get to my fail sounds fast enough. I don't know where I put them.
Oh, you know why?
Where's the pro...
No, no, no.
No, they didn't...
Oh, no, no.
Oh, wait, what is this?
What is this, Your Honor?
I'm sorry.
Yeah, this is new evidence.
I was just about to ask.
There's a precedent.
Okay.
Program repeats on both sides.
You may enter into the file.
The program repeats on both sides?
Yeah.
Hold on, let me enter that new evidence.
All right, that new evidence.
All right, that's fine. But typically, if it didn't,
they would write B in that little spot?
Yes.
They couldn't just make half of them
with A and half with B?
The insert's pretty cool.
So all right, it's a sheet of paper.
Can you see that?
Yeah, I can see it.
Yes.
But they slit.
Do you see the slit that they made?
No.
Oh, like a pop-up.
Oh, crazy.
Yeah, like it's a monster's mouth going to eat you.
Origami.
But then that makes it so it can fold into a booklet-esque.
Wow.
That's crazy.
Little J-card.
That's awesome.
Or not J-card.
That is tight as hell.
That is so sweet.
I don't understand origami or
or making a topic it makes an x one sheet of paper i don't expect you to dave i don't expect
you so that's cool it makes like a little x that's cool and now joe as a guy who knows about
art and does art is did you like that i do yeah i'm a big time i'm a big time art i'm a big time
art guy so like this is yeah so tonight you very... It's like you got an unlimited salad.
That's nice.
And who is this...
What about the breadsticks?
No, Joe doesn't get the breadsticks.
I only get one order.
Just one?
Yeah, I don't want to...
Limited breadsticks.
He likes to give them limited.
What if they were tiny?
What if they were tiny little breadsticks?
They were really tiny?
Yeah, like the ones that you get in Chex Mix.
Like Cornichon breadsticks?
But they were soft?
They were soft and hot out of the oven.
That would be amazing.
How do you eat them?
How do you eat them?
By the handful.
I just pop a whole bunch in my mouth.
Like, do you eat them hot?
They're like little Italian loaves.
Oh, Jesus Christ.
It's an expression.
You know, and they're small.
Oof, my dog.
Little miniature baguettes.
Little miniature kind of baguettes.
Yeah, they got a little crunch on the outside, but they're soft on the inside.
Oh, they sound so good.
What are you playing again?
Remind me what you're playing.
Is Spider Baby the name of the label or the name of the...
Spider Baby is the label baby. Okay the name of the label or the name of the spider baby
is the label baby
it's the label baby okay
and who is who's on the tape
Austin Texas label okay so we figure that out
you never answered
my one question wait he's on one of mine
right now let him do mine first
your honor I take priority
repeat your question.
Who is the tape? In the form of a question.
Your Honor, who's the tape? Low-pass killer.
Low-pass killer. Okay.
Okay, okay, okay.
Your Honor.
What did I do?
Now,
I'll go. Oh, wait. Dave has a question.
Dave has a question. No, Dave can go.
It's burning me alive.
Was the sticker on the spine on the actual Norelco case,
or was it on the J card?
It's on the Norelco case.
It's on the Norelco case.
So they got a bunch of Norelco cases.
That's dangerous.
That's probably a bad idea.
I can see a lot.
Yeah, list off a few reasons why.
Listen.
Well, look, look, look, look, look, look.
Go off on the rest, Dave.
Spider Baby 48 on the rest dave spider baby 40 40 spider baby 48 on the on the spine yeah of the norelco yeah but it's also on the tape so if i drop it
that's an easy match yeah but what if you break that norelco
what if you break the matter i still got this part
okay whatever whatever all right now it's already broken joseph joseph's already broken What if you break the... That doesn't matter. I still got this part. Okay. Whatever.
Whatever.
All right.
Now I'll go... It's already broken.
Joe's is already broken.
Well, this label...
It actually is already broken.
So all the spines just say Spider Baby on them?
Yeah, we went over that.
Yeah, and then handwritten the number.
I have one other one too.
Oh, that's confusing.
It's not confusing.
You can't tell who it is? It is confusing not confusing. You can't tell who it is.
It is confusing.
No, you can't tell who it is.
Oh, wait.
It doesn't say?
Are you serious?
How do you find out who it is?
No, if I display this, if I display this in my case,
it just says Spider Baby 48, 49, 50, whatever.
And you don't know who the artist is, huh?
You know, it's an aesthetic.
You don't know.
You got to take it.
You don't know.
You got to inspect it.
Yeah. You got to take it down. Spider Baby 37.
Who's that again?
You gotta check. You should be able to
click on it and it opens up the Discogs page.
Like on the nearest device.
You click
on it.
It jacks you in.
I'm trying to unplug, Mike. I'm getting
off social media.
Low Pass Killer is Anthony Pandolfino.
Italian.
You know him, right, Mike?
Oh, my God.
Yeah, me and him used to eat Cabagool together.
You guys do...
Yeah, his family does good vinegar peppers.
Don't bring back the vinegar peppers guy.
Give me some Cabagagool some vinegar peppers let me ask a question don't bring it back up i don't like you know i don't like the soup guy
you know i don't it took way too much attention away from me way too much i couldn't deal with it
i don't know why it was such a
throwaway stupid thing people love dumb asses listen to this shit they love it they love the
stupidest the stupidest shit that's why i do this i bang on that thing all the time the
fucking doofuses love it you work so hard nobody pays attention i do this throwaway soup guy and
everybody loves it it burns me to the core all right i'll play a tape now should i still play my rock and roll one
rock and roll yeah rock and roll rock and roll yeah i got a rock and roll one from a
band called the broncas like the denver broncas broncas broncos broncas b- B-R-A. It sounds just like that. Like Glenn Bronca?
It's B-R-A-N-K-A-S.
So exactly like that.
Okay.
Yeah.
Okay.
Okay.
I believe it's two people, possibly from New York.
Maybe that's...
I forget.
The way I heard them, I came across them on this compilation that I'll hold up right here
from a label called...
I don't know if you can see it with my virtual background.
I can't because your background, it just disappears.
You have to hold it in front of yourself.
Yeah.
Like right in front of my face?
But then with my glasses off, I don't even see anything.
Yeah.
Well, it's from a label called Drongo Tapes.
And Drongo Tapes, I don't know anything about them,
but this comp, Warble and Fuzz, it's a good one.
And it's one that I immediately told Dave.
I was like, you'd like this one.
I like this new generation of music.
There's a moment you're listening to some ambient music, and then all of a sudden a rock and roll band is playing.
And you're taken aback by it.
I know, exactly.
It's a treat.
It's like getting another order of breadsticks.
You know what?
We'll take one more order of breadsticks.
Concierge.
Well, especially when they're tiny like that, Joe.
Come on.
Yeah, the little ones.
Oh, man.
Now, let me ask you a question.
Do you want a pile of them, or do you want them all with individual toothpicks in them?
No, no, no.
Breadsticks, hot donuts with chocolate and caramel in it.
No, no.
I just want a pile of them.
You just want to stick your fist in the middle?
The problem is the ones at the bottom are going to get a little,
a little wet.
You know,
you can do shallow plates.
Oh,
shallow plates.
All right.
Yeah.
That's a good band name.
That's a good band name.
Shallow plates is a good band name.
I'll get the band camp right now.
I think the full name of this label is Drongo ultra high bias,
super tapes limited. I don't know if that's a guarantee because super high bias, the full name of this label is Drongo Ultra High Bias Super Tapes Limited.
I don't know if that's a guarantee, because
super high bias, that's a regulated term.
You can't just go throwing that shit around.
It's not like organic.
Anyone can use it for anything.
But Drongo Tapes has this little
guy. I think they call
him Angry Man.
If you can Google
Drongo Tapes,
it's a little angry guy. They got a
sticker of him on the shell.
They got a crude drawing of him like
a little child did it on the back. He's got
little ears, a mad little mouth.
He's hot. Well, Drongo is a
derogatory term for someone that
looks like that. Eek, we're in trouble now. I can't
be playing this kind of shit, man. Yeah.
I mean, yeah, you can't play. You gotta vet
everything that you play, Mike.
Well, I'm gonna play. I think the Broncos are cool, and I think
Drongo Tapes is cool, and I like Angry Men.
And, uh,
this is their 20th...
You guys still like the Denver Drongos?
I fucking said that already.
I said that
like five minutes ago.
Oh, well, I wasn't paying attention.
No, you said, what's the band called?
You boys like soup?
I said, oh, I said the Broncos, the Denver Broncos.
Yeah, you said the Broncos, but he said the Denver Drongos.
The Denver Drongos.
He flipped it.
He changed it.
The Denver Drongos.
He changed it. Now, Drongos. He changed it.
Now his is funnier than yours.
Have you ever seen the Drongo
painting at the Denver airport?
I don't like this.
At this point, you might as well just do
Soup Guy over Top Me for the rest of the show.
You guys ever been to
Denver?
That's what pisses me off. Dave will just say, you guys ever been to Denver that's what pisses me off
Dave will just say
you guys ever been to Denver in that voice
somebody's gonna like it
that's all he has to do
he's gonna leave early
he's gonna fall asleep
the altitude makes the soups more vibrant
stop doing the soup shit man
come on
this Drongo label denver drongos
they're actually they're actually from seattle and uh this is their 20th release i think they
started in 2018 um but yeah i'm gonna play the bronco song on this and i will tell you what
it's called but the type inside this is so fucking small it's like a joke it's like a it's called, but the type inside this is so fucking small. It's like a joke. It's like a clown made it.
There's a joke. It's so small.
What did you drop? I dropped all my tapes.
They're still falling.
Are you still dropping them?
I know. It's surprising. I kind of saved them the first
time.
The falling continued.
What is going on?
I used this
tape to stimulate myself into having an erection.
All right, now you play a tape, Dave.
Let's go.
Okay.
What's this cruiser or coaster you've been talking about?
No, I was just saying I didn't want to start off with a 15-minute ambient track for the show.
I don't want you to do that now.
We want to ease into that.
I don't want to ease into a 15 minute ambient track. I'll tell you
right now. I'm exaggerating. I'm fucking exaggerating.
My next three tapes are 15
minute ambient tracks. It's not going to fly
here. It's not going to work.
I have this tape by Weaving.
I know this one.
Yeah, that came out
I guess last year.
You think they might be mid-delay or they're bobbing
and weaving?
What was the first option?
The first option is like weaving with thread.
That or yarn.
You're weaving something. Yeah, that one.
Or they're playing football.
Playing football in there.
No, they're not playing football.
They're definitely not playing football.
No.
When do you weave in a sport?
Bobbing right after you bob. A a sport? Right after you bob.
A good weave is right after you bob.
Is that basketball?
It's immediately after you bob.
Any sport.
Yeah, hockey, I think you weave.
Yeah, any sport you can weave.
Okay.
As long as you bob first.
Nets, I think you can weave.
Anything with nets.
Anything with nets.
Hockey, basketball, soccer, dog fights.
All right, all right, good, good.
What is it with nets?
Why do you guys all got to use the same?
Yeah, Dave, you've been wanting to go off on this for a while.
Let's give him some space.
Because it's the same sport that they just change it a little bit.
The goal is smaller.
Yeah, yeah. Yeah, they take the goal, they stretch it out, make it bigger, they shrink it down, make it a little bit. The ball is smaller. Yeah, yeah.
Yeah, they take the goal, they stretch it out,
make it bigger, they shrink it down, make it a circle.
Yeah, what if we took this net, we put it up higher,
we made it smaller, and we changed the color of the ball?
Oh, that's a new sport.
Yeah, right.
Nobody's ever put a net in the floor, by the way.
Yeah, you know what I say?
Dig a big hole, bury the net.
Now let's see some of you jocks get a ball in it. Or actually, you know what I say? Dig a big hole, bury the net. Now let's see some of you
jocks get a ball in it.
Or actually, you know what?
I'm going to
do... This is my thing.
I'm going to make golf courses
and all the holes have little nets
in them.
But the balls are bigger, right?
No, everything's exactly the same except the holes
have little nets inside um micro weave nets all right yeah yeah yeah that's what sets me apart
from the rest of the courses i'm thinking golf i'm thinking bowling inside the three holes on
the balls tiny little nets for your fingers. Okay. For your fingers? Yeah.
No, no, no.
I'd say we golf with little tiny bowling balls that go into holes that have nets in them.
I'd say we bring pool cues to the golf course.
Oh, I'd like that.
We lay down on the green.
We lay down on the green,
and we fucking just...
I got some food.
Lawn pool.
Lawn pool, yeah.
Lawn pool. I'd some fruit. Lawn pool. Lawn pool, yeah. Lawn pool.
I like that.
Hey, I got this weird feeling.
We're not playing any tapes tonight, are we?
We're getting there.
I don't think we're playing any tapes.
It's going to be just like normal.
Okay.
We start slow and then end really fast.
Yeah, I love when we don't give any of the information
for the tapes at the end.
We kind of just go right through.
At the end, we're like, it's blah, blah, blah.
It's blah, blah, blah.
I'm tired.
Can we stop?
Yeah.
I'll give you a little bit of info.
You boys want a little bit of info?
No, but now, Dave, Dave, go.
Yeah, yeah.
I'm sorry for interrupting with my college humor.
Yeah, this weaving tape.
It's a self-release tape.
Came out last summer, I think.
I've had this for a while, but I've been jamming a lot recently.
It's got like a skullflower kind of vibe to it.
You know, like the psychedelic guitar.
What's that guy's name?
Matt Bowers?
Is that his name?
What's his name? I don't know. Something like that.
What's his name? He does...
Matthew Bowers, I think
you're right. Yeah.
Sunroof.
Is that another one? Sunroof.
In total. Yeah, and then...
Just go to Disco.
Hototogisu.
That's all him?
Remember that one?
Yeah.
That was him and someone from...
Was it Marsha Bassett?
Marsha Bassett.
Those are like the real long players, right?
Yeah.
That one's like...
I don't even know if that one...
At the time, back in the day,
that one was hard to get and super expensive
the hoto hoto to gisu floating something floating gardens or something floating gardens yeah yeah
yeah anyway so this has that kind of vibe yeah some some of it i mean it jumps around a bit but
the tracks that i'm going to play that they have that vibe you know it's kind of like a spaceman
three without the drums and the vocals and stuff.
You know?
Okay.
You're really fuzzed out.
You know, you'll hear it.
You'll hear it.
Like volume to the max type.
It does say play at maximum volume at the cover.
It does.
Don't tell me to do that.
Yeah, I hate when people,
yeah, I hate when they tell me anything like that.
Go off on it, Dave.
Go off on their dumb ass.
Yeah, well, this tape says it's made in Canada.
Let me tell you something. Here in America, we play
at the volume we like to play at.
Yeah.
No, I'm with you. He's back.
Don't tell me. Don't tell me.
I don't play anything at maximum volume.
I don't like it.
Oh, it's one of those things? Maximum volume
yields maximum results?
Yeah. It just says play at max volume.
Yeah.
Don't tell me to do that.
You know what?
You want to play it so quiet you can't even hear it?
Should we put it in the mix so quiet you can't even hear it?
Is it a big fuck you?
Big fuck you?
It's a big fuck you.
It's a big fuck you.
We're playing your tape, but we're going to play it really low.
Listen, buddy.
We're playing your tape, all right? I'm not going to low. Listen, buddy, we're playing your tape, all right?
I'm not going to play it at the maximum volume.
I'm not going to do that, and fuck you.
And on the next tape, you better write,
play it at any volume you'd like on the cover.
That should be like the next Sun record.
They play through a wall of tiny little amplifiers,
and then it says, play at lowest volume possible.
That'd be good.
They'd pull a whole 180 on you.
They would do it, too.
The kind of art shit they do, the concept shit they do.
What would they wear instead of robes?
Tiny little robes.
Speedos?
Tiny little speedos?
Tiny robes.
See?
I think a robe, but it just goes right below the balls.
I think they'd get into a shrink machine
and just come out on a little pizza table.
Like a miniature sun playing on a pizza table?
Yeah.
Imagine that cheese.
It'd be like...
That'd be a bubbling crude, that cheese.
I'm just talking about the little plastic thing
that keeps the box from collapsing onto the cheese.
No, I know exactly what you're talking about.
I know exactly what you're talking about.
Yeah, I was with you.
All right, you ready to play these tapes?
Oh, is that it?
Is that the block?
Oh, I can play one more.
No, no, no, no, no.
No, because I got a bunch.
No, I know you.
Buddy, I know.
You've got so many.

Hell yeah.
In Communion.
In Communion.
Yeah, new one on Alien Garage.
On what?
Alien Garage.
Are you serious?
That's some of this.
You got to warn me
if you're going to play something on
anything that has to do with aliens.
Anything.
Ghost.
Oh, I can't even.
I forgot from the last one.
Joe B., Spider Baby.
That was also too scary.
I forgot to mention.
Yeah.
I was so scared I didn't mention
because of the spiders.
Oh, you're afraid of spiders?
I'm afraid of spiders, ghouls of the spiders. Oh, you're afraid of spiders?
I'm afraid of spiders, ghouls, puddles.
Silverfish.
What are those little things?
Why are they called fish?
I don't know.
I don't get it.
How do boats work?
I don't get it.
It's exactly like that.
You don't get how boats work?
I don't get how planes work.
Like an aircraft carrier, I don't really get how it works.
What do you mean?
Why doesn't when the plane land on it, just push it into the water?
Yeah.
It should.
Yeah, it should go for a big swim.
It should go.
Yeah, I don't get it.
It's a really big, because the boat's so big that the plane, it's like,
it's almost like if I got into a boat.
It would sink, Dave.
It would sink, yeah.
It would immediately sink.
Yeah, you're not breaking it down for me here.
No, Dave, first of all, he would one foot on the dock
and it would go through the wood.
Through the wood, then the waters come up,
we're using the buckets,
and we're splashing them off the side.
I mean, I do have to use the fiberglass boat
if I'm going to get it into a boat
and it's got to be pretty big like i'm stepping on if you put me on a cruise ship and i'm fine
anything smaller than that it's a little bit you know i'm not comfortable trying it i'll just say
that yeah i don't get boats big boats big boats big boats I don't get ships. Maybe you don't get how ships work, how it doesn't just sink like a rock.
It's got a lot of air inside.
It's like, yeah, but then when like 20 planes land on it and it doesn't, it's just like.
Well, the planes have air too.
They're airplanes.
They have air too.
They're airplanes.
So they're just bringing more air.
Yeah.
They just bring more air.
That's like an endless supply.
That's like an attic. It looks like they're actually landing. It looks like they're actually landing, but that's a Yeah. They just bring more air. That's like an endless supply. That's like an attic.
It looks like they're actually landing.
It looks like they're actually landing, but that's a trick.
They're actually covering right above the surface.
But isn't there more metals and air?
I don't get it.
Yeah, and the planes don't land on-
They put helium in them.
The planes don't intentionally land on aircraft carriers.
An aircraft carrier will pull a plane from the sky like a magnet.
Oh, okay.
For its air.
And then set it loose. For for its air and then set it loose
once it's had its fill.
I think it's just the cruise ships are usually in really
shallow water so it can't really sink
anyway.
So it's just like
shut the fuck up.
The boat doesn't move.
The background moves.
So how did
Mike Nigro get to Australia?
Do you think he's slowly developing an accent?
He's slowly developing a sun hat, I think,
that's just growing on his head.
Like an Outback hat.
Do you think his pouch has come in yet?
All right, what's going on, Mike Nig mike nigro in communion you're saying to me
yeah in communion uh it's a beautiful tape uh the artwork by that how do you say it ruckel ruckel
ruckel oh yeah he just did a tape for ruckel on uh on oxtail his label oxtail you know what's
funny about this is this tape if you look at the spine
look at that it's alien garage but look what it says there what's it say it says alien garage
no alien gag array oh my god are you fucking kidding me are you fucking is that a bit or is
that on purpose that couldn't possibly be on purpose.
Are you sure the label's called Alien Garage
or is it called Alien
Gagare?
Maybe it's something else.
No, it's...
It could be French.
What's the Bandcamp URL?
What is that?
Alien Garage.
Look up AlienGarage.Bandcamp.
That's a Biff. that's a classic biff Dave

what's that like two men two naked men wrestling
it might be two yeah who no one even knows
there's no way they put a
there's no way they sent this out like that
my eyes are going crazy
that's like one of the biggest biffs like i've ever seen ever i'm and i saw 9-11 live on tv
and this was a bigger biff no i think i was on purpose
9-11 does definitely on purpose with there's no way that was on purpose are you kidding why would
they do that why would they knock the tower tower number seven or whatever what if it was an accident think about it for a second
9-11 is there like a different is there like a is there like a subgenre of 9-11
truthers that think it was an accident like the pilots just fucked up
they just go back in the pilot's history and it's like he didn't do that good in flight
school he probably and then what about the other pilots just simultaneously it was three
three pilots it was three simultaneous four pilots simultaneous mistakes i'm gonna tell
you what it is i'm gonna tell you what it was it was four dumbass brothers
who all went to flight school together it's like it's like the krusky
brothers and they all barely passed flight school they got a c minus
and they all biffed on the same day i don't think oops i just want to say for the record i think
flight school needs to uh a plus is only please that's the only way
oh yeah yeah if i ever do a flight school i'm only letting a plus people everybody else it's a
it's a pass fail yeah i think that's from now on yeah i take away the keys 11 it's been it's
a plus only after after those four assholes, those four penis heads
scratched those plates.
Whoops.
Oops.
They thought it was a runway.
Oh, shit.
Oh, man.

H light Right, I guess it's just H-Lite, right?
I guess it's not High-Lite.
I don't know.
H-Lite.
H-Lite?
Is there a hyphen?
Is there a period?
No, it's just H-L-I-T-E.
Is it one word?
No, I think it's two words.
Well, if you count just the letter H as a word.
Oh, hmm.
That's an interesting question.
I never really, I'm not a philosophy guy,
so I got to skip that one, buddy.
Yeah, I'm sorry.
Dave, you want to take a shot at that?
Is H a word?
Is H a word?
H-E double hockey sticks is a word.
Oh, don't say that.
I'm not going to.
Not on the air.
This tape is called.
Not on the air.
I never would.
A-V tone Tone Alterations.
What is that?
That's the name of the tape.
I just said I said this tape is called
A.V. Tone Alterations.
I had the same conversations
with my son.
Well, then say it twice.
Just say it twice.
Big deal.
On multi-dim records 2021.
This is a new John.
2021?
Yeah.
Was it hot when you held it because it's so new?
Fresh off the machine?
There's one thing.
So it comes in like the Brad Pack, you know?
Uh-huh.
With a little like embroidered patch.
Should we explain what a Brad Pack is for any fucking assholes who don't know?
I don't think so.
I don't.
For any assholes who don't know what a Brad Pack is.
It's just 101, buddy. Brad Pack.
Yeah, come on. I knew Brad.
He wouldn't want me to explain it.
I got one right here.
Oh, you got one right here. I got one right here, too.
This is what it is. Take a fucking picture.
Take a picture. Take a picture. It'll last longer.
I can't. Take a picture.
It's like origami for a tape
case.
You know, the one guy who already admitted he doesn't know anything about origami.
It's like a cross.
It looks like a cross.
Yeah, it's got a little embroidered patch on it.
You open it up.
Yeah, but there's a lot of folds and shit.
It's one piece of paper that turns into a complex shape, I'm trying to say.
There's not a lot of folds.
I don't understand.
It's not a lot.
It's not a lot.
Go easy on me.
It's not a lot.
It's screwless.
I mean, there's at least like 8 or 10 of them.
Count the folds real quick, Joe.
Shut up. Joe, be a doll
and count those folds.
1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6...
8 folds.
Oh my god.
Did you get it right?
It gets complicated.
I'm sorry. That's a lot of origami. That's a lot of fucking folds.
I didn't realize it lot of fucking folds.
I didn't realize it'd be eight folds.
Screwless yellow tape.
Take one sheet of paper and turn it into a head.
All right, enough.
You don't have to gloat about it, Dave.
You got it right.
Okay, let's move on.
Don't rub it in my face.
No one wants to hear you rub it in my face.
Inside is another little hand-embroidered patch with what looks like a Sanic figure.
Yeah, that's like Stonic
the Hump Hog. Yeah, Stonic
the Hump Hog, yeah.
That looks cool, though.
Insert. What is this
logo look like to you?
Can you see that? Is it the yellow
thing at the bottom? Yeah.
It looks like NNA.
It does look like NNA, but this tape is not on NNA.
That's copyright infringement if I've ever seen it.
Yeah.
Yeah, that's a big red flag, Joe.
I don't think we can play this legally.
I'm entering that into evidence.
Yeah, I'm going to enter that into evidence.
That looks exactly like the NNA logo.
No, it's not, Joe.
I wouldn't say that looks exactly like the NNA logo. That is the NNA logo. No, it's not. Joe, I wouldn't say that looks exactly like the NNA logo.
That is the NNA logo.
This label, what they have done, they have stolen the NNA logo.
What is the name of the label?
Multi Dim Records.
Hold that up again.
I want to see how that's not an N and an N and an A.
They want to say it's an M and D and an O.
Are you sure this isn't
one of those two-label
collaborative tapes?
No, they wouldn't. Because that looks exactly
like the N and A logo.
Stop saying it looks like it.
It is it.
It is it.
I don't know. There's no precedent for this case.
Throw it out of court.
Just throw it out of court.
You know what will happen?
We'll get the takedown notice.
We'll get the takedown notice.
Where do they put all those thrown out cases?
Where do you guys think?
Like a landfill?
Or do they have their own special?
Yeah, on the moon.
I'm playing that tape
does that
leave me I believe so
okay this is the time I'm gonna do two
you
son of a bitch
you know how I feel about field recordings
you know how I like
them so I
field recordings you know your boy

to different places just by hearing stuff who's that one guy francisco lopez i got one of his
tape or cd one time yeah the sil guy. And it came with a blindfold.
Hell yeah.
That's the kind of stupid shit I'm into.
That's the kind of shit I'm into.
Good job on that.
This is field recordings from the Sahel on Sahel Sounds.
What's the name of the dude,
the label head?
Christopher Kirkley.
This is him from 2009 to 2012.
Field recordings around Africa. Just a collection.
Did they find the iPad play in that Rich McCullough song?
What are you talking about? What's that song by the...
Weezer covered that song recently. Sweater.
No, no, no it's uh the africa song oh the toto song
yeah yeah the toto song so there's like some like there's some like art installation of that playing
on loop somewhere in the desert in africa set up on an ipad on repeat with like two speakers i'm
just wondering if that's if they found that in the field recording that they did.
I don't think so, Dave.
I'm sorry.
This is mostly...
Did you...
No, it's not on here, buddy.
No.
Did you guys hear...
I thought I learned.
That's not...
I thought it was worth asking.
That's not...
I thought it was worth asking.
Yeah, but this is...
I think the tape is sold out now,
but you can probably still hear
all these field recordings on Bandcamp.
You can probably do that.
All right, I'm going to play one more
in this block.
I'm going to play this one
on a new one on Suite 309.
Suite 309 just put out
two new tapes. And the motherfucker's still
sending us three...
You know how he's always... This clown's always
sending us three copies of everything?
No, I don't, because I guess I'm not getting those.
Oh. He's every Oh. Every Sweet 309
release. I think there was
an ancient
an ancient
we made a deal.
We made a deal, I guess, at some point
where he was forced to send us
three copies of everything.
But now that you guys aren't coming over
here, don't send all three to me.
Just send them individually because Mike doesn't give them to me.
Yeah, I'm throwing away the other two now.
I'm not transporting them.
I'm not going to a third location with them.
Oh, boy.
Send one to Dave.
Send one to Joe.
Send one to me.
But this one, there was a Tiger Village tape.
And then this one, and it's like, I don't know how to say this.
I don't think anyone is supposed to know how to say it.
It's one of those, I don't know what.
It's like Sophia.
Sophia with a bunch of extra A's.
And then there's an H-J.
I gotta take my glasses off.
H-J-K-L semicolon 890 is the name of the project.
That's the name of the project.
Okay.
How do you say that?
How is anyone supposed to say that?
I have no idea.
Is this some sort of game?
Is this some sort of game?
You don't pronounce it.
You just like hold it up.
It's just a feeling that you get.
Yeah.
Now, Joby, let me ask you this you love project
names band names that you can't google like you probably are hard to google that are hard to google
you probably really enjoyed weaving that's a weaving's good yeah weaving's good yeah now what
about this if you google this nothing maybe a virus will come up maybe a virus will come up he got a virus
but like beyond that like you're just getting this what do you think about a name like this
i don't know because it is so specific with all those letters that then that's the only thing
that's going to come up but what when your project is called black coffee and the tape is called
grounds uh-huh. I like that.
Yeah, that's what I'm saying.
So you must hate this.
Yeah.
Well, I mean, that's, you know, yeah.
Because nothing, because there's... The only thing that's going to come up is that.
Is that, yes.
That must make you mad.
Yeah.
Yeah, you're right.
Joe wants to dig for it a little bit.
Yeah, I want to dig a little bit.
Yeah, you want there to be kind of a cat and mouse to it.
Yeah, a little back and forth.
Yeah, a little back and forth.
Yeah, it turned into something special.
What is the fourth here?
What are they doing?
What do you mean?
Like a back and forth.
Yeah, like a little back and forth.
I don't know what the back and forth is.
Yeah, what are they supposed to be doing?
So you Google it. That's not how you search for things on the internet there's not like a back
and forth yeah you don't have people emailing you like you're almost there you're almost there
here's a hint add plus band camp the back and forth is you know the first couple links you
choose they're not the right ones okay Okay, forward and backwards on the explore.
Yeah, forward and backwards on the back and forth.
Yeah, yeah.
And you don't get it, Dave.
To Joe, a missed Google is more of like a sexual encounter.
It's like when he Googles something
and it doesn't come right up, he's kind of like, oh.
That's an oversimplification, but, you know.
I'll take what I can get with you files done um what did i want to say about this oh i see on discogs here's a
question i have for the artist uh the tape's called silicone soul by the way it says on discogs
that they are a film major that makes electronic and experimental music in their free time.
But it says on Instagram that they're an art school dropout.
So I just want to know which one is updated.
Did they drop out?
Or did they drop out and go back and now they're a film major?
You like this one, huh?
It's a good mystery. I think it's a good mystery I think it's a good mystery Dave
I'm not even going to argue
I don't even want to argue with you guys
why are you going to argue
it's not even worth it

I feel my children are gone.
I feel my children are gone.
I feel my children are gone.
I feel my children are gone. Oh, my God. singing in Arabic The Because if they're not, then Kandahar is in deep trouble.
I mean, for example, so far they're supposed to have a large airbase there
with a substantial number of aircraft,
but so far we've seen about one or two of the jet fighters and one helicopter flown.
So that lends credence to the theory that the government forces are a bit of a shell,
they don't have many people actually willing to fight.
The crunch will come probably in the next day or two
when these opposition fighters almost certainly will have to fight.
And then the left-wingers will be there.
So then you have a second situation very different in the west of the country
to the west of Tripoli, where we've been hearing that the really different
is the wheel.
In some ways ways actually less strategically
important, the opposition are putting
up an incredibly tough fight there against
some of the strongest brigades
of Khan al-Gaddafi
with full armour and they're still holding
the moment
we have fought for the cities to be east
he's still in an awful lot of
trouble because then they can push on to
Misrata and begin to almost encircle Tripoli.
Do you think then that the government forces... Surah Al-Fatiha. We'll be right back. Thank you. Thank you. so Thank you. Push me through the bar door Push me up the top of it

I need to push my chair on the ground again.
I need to test my life's scale.
I need to get my head on the edge.
I need to build blocks of life.
I need to fight in prison for myself.

Tape on Alien Garage
Which I went to the band camp
It is Alien Garage.
And I did a control F on the
Mike Nigro page for the word typo
and nothing came up. So it makes me
think that maybe they're trying to hide this one.
They think they can just slip underneath the radar.
Kind of wow people
with this cover art. You searched
for typo. I searched for the word
typo. The word typo. I searched for
the word typo. Control F typo. I searched for the word typo. Control F.
Typo. Yes, sir.
Did not come up, so I believe the label is
trying to hide this biff
and are embarrassed by it. We're not gonna
let you hide behind it.
You were hoping that they made some sort
of press release? I would hope they would
at least mention, like, oops, everybody,
sorry about this enormous biff.
We did a biff bigger than 9-11,
and we apologize for it.
We're going to send everyone out a free J card
with the garage spelled right.
That would be nice.
I mean, it would be the good thing to do.
I think what they thought they were going to do
is they thought they were going to wow everyone
with like, wow, there's a square
and a circle on the cover.
Where's this label from? Where's this label from?
Where's that label from?
They figured nobody would ever turn the tape over.
Yeah, they're going to look at the front and be just...
My eyes are going crazy.
Look at the front and just be mesmerized by it, and they'll never flip it.
They'll never look at the back.
Where's the label from, Dave?
Japan.
Japan.
They do things a little bit different there in Japan.
That's true.
I shouldn't talk about other cultures.
At all.
Don't even mention them.
I won't ever talk anything about them, factual or not.
All right.
Who wants the beginning of the end?
I guess I'll play.
I'll go first.
You're going to go first again, just as a full circle.
You went first the first time.
Well, I only have one more tape left.
You probably have six.
I only have two.
Come on, come on.
I had enough of this shit.
It comes in like a nice, what is this material?
It's like a woven bag.
It's like a woven bag, yeah. It's like a woven bag. It's like a woven bag.
It's like a potato sack.
It's like a potato sack, yeah.
But very small.
You know what it'd be good for if you were going to make tiny little potatoes.
Oh, that'd be good.
Is it racing quality?
Is it racing quality?
Like for potato sack races?
No, for potato sack races.
It's way too small, Dave.
Do you see it?
This is for...
Yeah, this isn't like a full-size
potato sack with a tape in it.
It's a racing quality.
It's got a little screen-printed
scary
logo.
You know what it's for.
It looks stitched in.
No, that's screen-printed.
It does look stitched in.
You know how people do
fingerboards, like skateboards? This is like the hand version of that. it does look stitched in though you know how people do finger boards
like skateboards
this is like the hand version of that
this is hand held
potato sack races
you stick your hand in potato sack races with your buddies
I'm sure there's a league for that
this is like
fingerling potato sack races
fingerling potato sack races
absolutely that's good uh this this band is called with the end in mind with the end in mind
yeah tides of fire i like this i like this new generation of music this sounds way too scary
like they're trying to make me piss myself no No, this is scary. Holy shit, dude.
Holy shit.
Well, okay, I'm ready for this.
What label put this out?
When the little sacks.
And does that label always put out stuff in little sacks?
Like, do they do a different miniature kind of sack for every release?
I don't think so.
The label is called
let me see if I can pronounce it
you can I can say it right now
there's not a chance
Pacific I got that one
okay
how many more words we got

That is spooky.
And then the logo again
with the end in mind.
Oh shit, hold on.
Wait, hold that up for a little bit.
Okay.
Okay, because it just looked like
a bunch of glyphs
and it's mirrored perfectly.
Right?
It is mirrored perfectly.
Right? Yeah. But those are all the words. Let me say it again. Those are all the wordsrored perfectly, right? Yeah.
But those are all the words. Let me say it again.
Those are all the words, yeah. I'll be damned. Look what they did here. Yeah, it's a little, you know,
Blair Witchy to me.
Oh yeah, and I did piss my pants, so they did
a good job.
I hope you're proud of yourself.
This label's from California,
but the band is from
Washington State.
Okay, but they managed to get in touch
with each other
across state lines?
Somehow they figured
how to hook up.
Yeah.
The tags on the
band camp are Cascadian Black Metal.
What is that?
And Dark Folk.
What is Cascadian Black Metal?
I got to learn a new thing.
I got to learn a new thing.
You got to learn a new thing.
This is a new thing.
Not a chance.
Come on.
Not a chance.
I don't know how much I trust the Black Metal.

picture with someone did you come on you didn't do any research i'll tell you one of my biggest
things that i'm not whenever a band band has a long-sleeved shirt
and there's printing down the sleeves,
I get nervous.
You get nervous?
I get real concerned.
Like, uh-oh.
There's something...
I gotta Google every member's name.
I think I'm not that nervous
because they're from the United States.
I hate to tell you this, buddy,
but we got a bit of a problem here, too.
I don't know. I don don't know if they're from Finland
or
anywhere else
Norway
I'm not even Canadian but you know
that European stuff
yeah the Scandinavian stuff
most of the time
it all creeps me out all of it
I stay away from all of it.
Well, it's all scary.
It's all scary.
It scares the shit out of me.
Yeah.
It scares the shit out of Dave, I can tell.
Oh, yeah.
Bang on drums in the forest with pine cones and stuff.
Yeah.
I play a different pattern just for a second.
All right. these guys seem cool

you've been making some bad choices
alright Dave what do you got

I'll do this Danny Potpourri tape
oh hi Danny
Danny Potpourri tape oh hi Danny Danny Potpourri
I used to
I just put a cookie in my mouth
and that was why I was so
interested in that like why is Joe
putting an entire cookie in his mouth now
I mean he knows we're going to have to say something back to Dave
I thought Dave was going to talk
a lot more about the tape,
what label it's on.
I thought I had time for a cookie.
I can talk about it a little bit.
Eat that cookie up, man.
Yeah, Danny Potpourri.
The tape's called Lee's Room.
It's on Moss Archive.
I'm right so far?
All right.
Thank you. Moss Archive number 50 in its edition of 50.
I'm right again?
Take it away.
I'm right again?
Thank you very much.
Yeah, take it away, buddy.
Thank you very much. Excellent artwork on the away, buddy. Thank you very much.
Excellent artwork on the cover by Joe Bastardo.
Can I...
Uh-huh.
Yeah, thought so.
I know a little something about this one, Dave.
Joe, you might as well eat another cookie.
I got a little bit more information about this.
I ate both, so I'm done with the cookies.
I'm ready now.
I have a tape by...
Don't eat when I talk about potpourri.
It's going to taste weird.
Yeah, it does taste weird.
I kind of like it.
It's like Indian food.
Do you think that...
What?
Potpourri?
Yeah, like rose water.
Yeah, it's like a char.
You know what I mean?
You ever had a char?
It's like potpourri.
It's like incense.
Yeah.
I have a tape. A lot of flavors that contradict each other.
In good ways.
In good ways.
I'm not talking shit.
Danny Potpourri.
Oh, are you kidding me?
Are you kidding me?
I could eat it every day.
Every day.
You think that's his given name, Danny Potpourri?
Absolutely, I would think so.
Yeah.
Especially because I believe I have a tape where he just goes by Potpourri.
Well, I have Potpourri tape.
I didn't know this is the same person.
I believe so.
A tape from like, I don't know, 10 years ago probably at this point.
Let's talk about Indian food a little bit more.
Yeah, what's your favorite?
Before we move on.
Okay, what do you have to say about Indian food? Oh, I love Indian food. But you know what I really like one or two. Let's talk about Indian food a little bit more. Yeah, what's your favorite? Before we move on. Okay, what do you have to say about Indian food?
Oh, I love Indian food.
But you know what I really like to do?
When I order Indian food, I like to get an order of samosas,
but I don't eat them with dinner.
I save them for breakfast.
I heat them up in like an iron skillet,
and I put a scrambled egg over top of it.
Oh, wow.
You're insane.
That just blew my fucking mind, Dave. It's so good.
Jesus Christ.
It's so good.
Wow, that sounds pretty good.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Oh, I love doing Indian spice breakfasts.
Indian spice breakfasts at Dave's house.
Yeah, he's talking about it.
I say as soon as this breaks.
As soon as all this corona breaks.
Do a fried egg.
Fried egg on toast.
Listen, here's
my fried egg recipe.
Go, go. Fried egg
on toast, tempeh
bacon, aromasella,
and maple syrup.
It'll blow your mind. And then what do you do
with it? You eat it? You eat that shit.
You eat it? You eat it. Holy shit, Dave.
You make a sandwich.
You make a sandwich. Toast.
Fried egg.
Tempeh bacon.
Grana masala.
Maple syrup.
You put the maple syrup.
How much maple syrup?
Is that on the outside or is that on the inside?
Do you make the sandwich
and then drizzle maple syrup on top of it
and cut it with a fork?
No, no, no.
It's on the inside.
You can do it open-faced.
I like to do it open-faced.
I like to do it open-faced in the morning.
In the morning, open-faced sandwiches.
See, I don't think an open-faced sandwich is a sandwich.
I'm sorry.
I'm sorry.
I'm sorry.
Mike's hard-line with that.
I'm hard-line with that.
We've had many.
We've almost, like, come to blows.
Yeah, come to blows.
All right.
All right, asshole.
Put an egg on a piece of toast with some tempeh bacon.
Okay.
Some maple syrup.
Okay.
And some garam masala.
Okay.
And then what?
Put another piece of toast on top?
Dave's fried egg.
You could if you wanted to.
If you don't, you don't have to.
Here's the thing with garam masala, Davey.
Hi, Davey. The recipe kind of varies from family to family, as I understand.
Are you talking about the actual spice?
You can get it in the ballpark.
Jesus, Joe, Joe, Joe.
It's a spice mixture.
Don't do this.
It's just garam masala, wherever you get it.
Oh.
McCormick, no, it's not.
McCormick garam masala.
No, but what I'm saying is none of us are going to be like,
well, I've had these two different Garam Masalas on Dave's fried egg,
and actually I know it's quite.
It could be different.
It could be.
It could be.
It could be.
I want to know what Dave uses.
Not here.
Not in the U.S.
If you're going to buy Garam Masala, you're going to get some McCormick shit,
and you're going to put it on there.
That's what you're going to get some McCormick shit and you're going to put it on there. That's what you're using.
It's going to have fenugreek and probably
cumin or something. It's going to be
a mixture of spices that get
into the ballpark.
They're all going to be about the same.
I'm in the ballpark, Dave. I'm at the game.
I got my seat. I got my hot dog. I'm ready.
So you're playing this Donnie Pepperoni
game? They got rooms for every Donnie Pepperoni.
Here he is, the king of French.
So last holiday season, you know, we're making,
putting, looking for Christmas music.
Stumble upon, have you guys ever heard of Frank Sidebottom?
Frank Sidebottom?

Why would you.
All right.
Give it to me.
Go from the top.
Give it to me. Well the top give it to me
well i'm gonna go to frank go to frank's side bottoms wikipedia page okay chris chris sevey
i'm not opening that shit an english musician and comp and comedian known for the from the
front in the band the freshies in the late 1970s we all know the freshies we're all familiar with
whoever the fuck that is did they make a movie
about this dude i don't know man i don't know enough i didn't really get into him i just heard
one christmas song that he did i found a christmas song and then i found and then i was like who is
this guy and i'm looking a little bit on discogs and i've come across this comp called sergeant
pepper knew my father and it's this comp that he's... No, he did not. Just believe one thing I say.
Trust me.
Just trust me.
I'm not going to lie to you.
So this is like a comp from like 1988
of bands covering all of
Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club band.
And it's like, in addition to...
I don't think they made comps in 1988.
You don't think they what?
They didn't make comps in that year they
absolutely made comps until like 1994 they could they couldn't figure out how to get more than two
bands on something until the 90s um no they absolutely did they didn't have the technology
to do that no you're you're you're lying you're lying to our listeners they absolutely made comps
in the 80s they made this one and it's like in addition to what uh what's it called the frank side bottom thing i saw it was also like
billy bragg and uh the fall and sonic youth were on it and i was like oh look at this yeah they
made a movie i lied i lied in 2014 they made a movie about this sorry about the mr frank's eye bottom yeah it's just called frank and michael fastbender
is frank oh he never he never takes the the the like mask off or it's not really a mask i guess
i don't know what would you call it it's like a large paper mache head the big head it's hilarious
yeah okay it's it's bigger than a regular head. It's like Dave's head.
His last name was Sidebottom, huh?
I don't know.
His last name was Sidebottom in Frank?
They never said.
In Frank, I think
he's just called Frank. I think what's
happening here is they made a movie based on
Frank Sidebottom.
But it's not Frank Sidebottom.
I'm sure this guy actually took
that the head off every once in a while no no no you don't think no oh no they found an actor
they found an actor that actually had a paper oh that's what his head was oh he had a paper
michael fat michael fast bender is a a method actor and he got like plastic surgery let him
talk frank oh but i went to buy this
comp off of discogs and you know who was selling it was andrew weathers was selling it and he was
kind of like he was kind of to just say like you know what i'll just give you this tape
next time i send you tapes on full spectrum i'll just throw this in there he's very kind
and i really appreciated it oh very nice i'm sure you didn't ask or anything.
Listen.
I'm sure you didn't say,
where's my tape?
Where's my tape, Andrew?
Come on.
I heard Dave got one for free.
Where's mine?
Are you going to spank my ass like this one, Dave?
This is late in the show.
Dave.
You know I'm too tired
to come back to you.
Why would you do that?
You really think
that Mike doesn't have more subtle methods than
just saying where's my tape uh-huh his manipulation is very more you know my manipulation runs so deep
it puts your entire reality to sleep maybe yeah it is more spryful years, but now he just comes out and says it. I'm too old for it.
I've been with this.
Give me.
Give me.
I've seen it myself.
Give it to me.
Where's mine?
I used to make a whole meal of it.
Where's mine?
Give me mine.
Now you're just a servant.
Can I have it?
Can I just have it?
Then he was like, yeah, you can have it.
Dave Ball one, where's mine?
Well, that brings up a good point.
Where'd you get this Mike Nigro tape?
I fucking bought it.
All right.
Even with the mistake on the J card,
that's why I don't buy the tapes.
Yeah, well, I'm in the middle of a pay-for-value dispute right now,
so we'll see what happens.
Did you open it up right now?
Yeah, while we were doing it.
Yeah, live on air.
I'm going to play the Sonic Youth song from this.
What do they cover?
Within you, without you.
Sonic Youth is covering.
Sonic Youth?
Did Sonic Youth, were they unable or unwilling?
Why? Did they just never say no to a compilation they're on all of them anytime there's a DGC
rarity it's like yeah we got some stuff let me ask you guys this and I want you I want you to
honest guess on Discogs how many compilations are Sonic Youth listed on?
I don't know.
I will say...
Dave says 100.
No, don't...
Give me a number.
Oh, 25.
127.
No, you're both, like, embarrassingly off.
335.
Wow.
At work the other day, we were listening to like some spotify playlist or like radio station
and this song came on and this girl the person i was tattooing was like oh i love this song
i used to listen to it all the time it was on this comp that i had and i'm listening so i'm
like this is a carpenter song and she's no this is sonic youth oh yeah they cover that carpenter
song and they cover the Carpenter song yeah yeah
did she not know it was a Carpenter song
no she didn't know it was a Carpenter song
you should have just real quick the needle went
another comp that they were on
they were like oh you want to do a Carpenter's cover
and they're like yeah
yeah anything anything just constantly
just dumb ass long floppy
haircuts just in the studio
it's like the 80s the
one of them's probably on a skateboard oh yeah skateboard do you think they skateboarded i think
that i didn't say the skateboard one of them was on a skateboard on a skateboard it was late 80s
one of those assholes was on a skateboard at some point all right but then you know i'm going to
play that but then i well now i have to play What happens now? I don't play something on full spectrum?
Now I got to play one of the tapes.
Because they sent me this.
It'd be fucked up if I didn't play one of the tapes, right?
Oh, that's your segue to the full spectrum tape.
Now that's my...
Exactly.
That is my segue, and we are moving right along.
Joe B., I need to go back and rely on some of your art knowledge.
Oh, art history?
What is a still life?
A still life?
What is a still life?
That's just like, you know, if I set up like...
Yeah, Dave knows what that is.
It's, you know, if I set up like some flowers
and a couple pieces of fruit, maybe a pomegranate,
and there's like a nice piece of fabric,
and then I paint it.
Okay. Is this a still life? life oh you can't see it that's rush limbaugh's shoulder no i know i know i tell this cover i
think it's a still life would this be a still life i'll describe it to you and you tell me if
it's a still life it's like a magazine rolled up got like weird like string wrap around it it's got like a tool paper roll or no it's got like a um
a paintbrush roller thing underneath it holding it up on some trays is that a still life does it
look like a painting does it look like a dane patterson it looks like yeah it looks like a
dane patterson tableau is it a painting of that or is it a photo it's a photograph of it then uh that is not a still life
what happens if you're painting photograph what happens if you're painting a still life and like
a breeze comes in and moves some stuff oh what's it then well that's that's the that's the excitement
of it yeah is that does it turn into mixed media at that point you know mixed media is if i use
different types of shit.
What if the wind blew some other shit in,
like some leaves on top of it?
You got a collage going? Well, then I got to paint the leaves.
No, I have to paint the leaves.
Did the leaves land on my canvas?
They landed on both the canvas and the still life.
And a lot of shit fell over, and some of the stuff,
it was a big wind.
Some of the stuff fell off your shelf.
A record skipped.
The cat jumped.
What is that?
That's just trash.
Schrodinger's cat?
It was Schrodinger's cat jumped out.
Is he dead or alive?
I don't know.
Dead now.
Well, I like the cover of this tape.
I like it.
It's not a still life, which is kind of upsetting
because I thought it was, but that's not a painting.
That's a photograph.
But it was done by Zachary Z. Handler
from the 2019 series Zevil.
And I have a note here that says,
is S. Joe B. if this is a still life?
I think we've circled back and we got that.
This is a Marsha Fisher tape called New Ruins on Full Spectrum.
Marsha Fisher runs the label Gay Hippie Vampire.
Some bleep, I'd like you to bleep at least two words out of that.
I'll just bleep the whole thing.
You choose.
Yeah.
No judgment.
No judgment, but choose two of those words words one for you and one for dave
you fucking snowflakes man come on the colors on this tape it's so let me it's so bright and
vivid there is so much going on here and i will just give you a little play-by-play
the outside you have a this orange nar case, like an orange tilted Noroco case.
All I see is a white shoulder.
Yeah, but just keep doing it like you are looking at it,
like an orange Noroco case.
Like solid orange or an orange tint?
Orange tint.
Orange tint.
Orange tint.
You can act like you see it.
But I can't see it.
But act like I know you. That's why I'm asking you. If you could see it, I can't see it. But act like I know you.
That's why I'm asking you.
If you could see it, I wouldn't ask you.
There you go.
It's an orange tinicase.
It's got like this, the cover has a lot of blues
and some greens, very like a minty looking colors.
Wow.
Exactly.
And then the tape itself is clear
and the...
Get it all out.
Here comes the big one.
All right?
Hold on.
You gonna bust?
Dave's gonna bust.
Go ahead and just bust, man.
You've been honing in all episode.
Hold on. Let Dave bust in peace.
All right. Dave, the leader tape? You just described too many colors. Hold on, let Dave bust in peace. Too much.
Dave, the leader tape?
The average size of a penis.
Is yellow.
What?
Yeah, so you got all these colors that all come together.
You son of a bitch.
I know, I can't believe they fucking did it,
but they figured out how to put all these colors together.
It's too bold.
It's like bold.
It's like Takis.
Well, yeah, you bust it.
Yeah, it's like a meat lover's pizza.
Yeah, it's too much.
It's all the stuff.
It's like buffalo pretzel nuggets.
Is it too much for you?
Too many flavors, too many textures.
Well, how about this?
The front of the Noroco case is not tinted orange.
The front is just regular clear.
Oh, Jesus Christ.
It's how God Dave busted again.
I use this tape to stimulate myself into having an erection.
That's like smoking a cigarette after you smoke weed.
Brings it back.
I have the same conversations with my son don't know it made it worse for me
wow i'm sorry man i didn't know that it was it was it was more it was more sensation
do you want clear naroka was more was it the contrast because it was two different colors the curveball i didn't
see what if the front instead of being clear was a different tinted color that wouldn't have been
as bad i don't think it wouldn't have been as bad okay no what would have been like the top
thing that would just made you fucking just go fucking bananas the solid those solid ones that you sent a solid front and a tinted back a solid front
you know i might bust a thing oh that would be tight a solid the narucco is a solid front
somebody should do that a solid front and a tinted back i like that and then yeah do you
like a solid front do a solid front and a charcoal tint.
That's exactly what I was thinking.
A black front.
No, a white front
and a charcoal tint.
We thinking about doing the tape
with the two different colored sides?
No.
That's too much.
That's too much?
I'm starting to sweat.
Just do a clear. I'm starting to sweat. Do a clear. It's too much. That's too much? That's too much. Yeah. I'm starting to sweat. Just do a clear.
I'm starting to sweat.
Do a clear.
The clear tape.
It's too many options.
There's too many options.
All right.
Well, yeah, I'm going to play those two to take it out.
Okay.
Oh, I had this on the soundboard.
Where did it go now?
Just because I was playing that one tape.
Welcome back to 120 Minutes.
I'm Thurston Moore from Sonic Youth, your guest host tonight. How many times did you do now? Just because I was playing that one tape. Welcome back to 120 Minutes. I'm Thurston Moore from Sonic Youth,
your guest host tonight.
How many times did he do that? Like 300?
Oh, easily. Yeah, they never
turned on anything. There's no way.
Alright,
let's bust these ones out.
Dave needs a bath.
Dave needs a bath real bad.
Dave needs to take a quick soak.
Cold soak. Dave needs a big real bad. Dave needs to take a quick soak. Cold soak.
Cold water.
Dave needs a big cold hose down.
He needs a big dumb hose down out back.
Wash me down, yeah.
Wash me down.
Get the hose out.
Let's do it. The ash I sift through my fingers contains your image and mine
In all the lives we've lived together
We are elk doing battle
We are lovers amidst wreckage
We are faces in a tree. The ash I sift through
my fingers contains the image of me sifting ash through my fingers, and the image of its its own birth in fire.
These ashes were once the tree at the center of the world, the roots holding together the mountains, the branches upholding the sky.
Then one night as we surrounded it in worship the god who hung from this tree, spoke and said,
My gallows is the source of your life, but someday what kills me will die.
You will forget this tree, and you will worship one who dies on a false tree, on a dead effigy of a tree made from
dead wood.
And your numbers will be great and your lives will be small.
You will forget the names of animals.
You will forget how to plant seeds.
You will forget the strength in your own bodies.
The sun will grow savage so that in winter bears no longer sleep. And
machines will enslave you in the fires the machines bring into this world
When the Gatol prophecies save those of fire
On the ash which was once the tree at the center of the world
I swear this as it drifts into a raging sky
I cried for you before they told me you died
In these ashes I will carry you through this world
And as I carry you into the fire
I will show no fear to the fire
May we laugh together at suffering
May we become more terrible than death as we walk into the fire.
May we scream the death rites of this civilization.
May we go into battle wielding ecstatic fire. the death rights of this civilization
May we go into battle wielding ecstatic fire
May we make war on fear May we walk into the fire with reverence for the fire
May we make war on fear
May we walk into the fire with reverence for the fire! Thank you. May truth come into this world
And carry falsehood away
On its raging red arms
Into the screaming black sky
And may the name of truth
Be fire And may the name of truth be fire. I'm sorry. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. ¶¶ We were told
about the space between us all
And the people who hide themselves behind a wall of illusion and a glimpse of truth
and it's far too late
when they pass away
we were talking
about the love we all could share
When we find it
To try our best
To hold it there
With our love
We could save the world
If they only knew
Try to realize it's all within yourself
No one else can make you change.
You see, you're really only very small.
Life goes on, and you have enough to live for. Thank you. You're on your way We were talking about the love that's gone so cold
And the people who'd paint the world and lose their soul
They don't know, they can't see
Are you one of them? When you've seen beyond yourself
Then you may find peace of mind is waiting there
And the time will come when you see we're all one
And life goes on living you and without you Thank you. so Thank you. I'm sorry. so
so Thank you. I'm going to go ahead and do a quick test. Thank you. so Thank you. © BF-WATCH TV 2021
