Starting point is 00:00:01 to buy a little bit of it. Obviously, there's a problem with that tape. She doesn't really sound like that. Dad's out. Tabs out. Oh, Jamie, you're in a scary place. Come out of there. You were supposed to let that sound clip going further, by the way.
Starting point is 00:00:45 Jamie never quite nails the sound clips. There's a lot of things that Jamie doesn't nail perfectly. But you know what I mean? No one's no. Poh buddy's nerfect. This is clear. Like, there you go. If you let it go on further, he mentions tapes
Starting point is 00:00:59 again. Oh, he does? He does. I just stopped at the first mention of a tape. He's not going to mention it twice. That's it. You got to listen to the... Jamie, you're too much of like a now, now, me, me.
Starting point is 00:01:10 It's like... Jamie. Tabs out, cassette podcast, episode number... You've got to be really, like, lay it all out for him. You got to be literal. Play this sound clip until two minutes and 15 seconds. Hell, well, let me hook down the start matrix and the finish.
Starting point is 00:01:30 Matrix and I'll program that into... Actually, let me just ask chat GPT to... Analyze how many times says tapes. Stop recording at that point. Episode number 220. 220. Big Masonic number. And I'm trying to decide, because I'm a proud man.
Starting point is 00:01:51 Oh, you are? But I enter this episode hat in hand. What's that mean? Why do they say? Apologetic. Because you're inside the house. You should always have your hat off. No, but why do they say hat in hand?
Starting point is 00:02:02 It does mean... Hat in hand. Yeah, but Jamie, you nailed it. Apologetic. To Joe B. I got a big apology I got to make to Joe B. And I come here with a big spanked ass, a big red spanked ass, and it's a dummy.
Starting point is 00:02:17 About what? Well, do you remember last episode you played a certain tape that was purchased at a thrift store? Mm-hmm. Called Shivers. Yeah. You played this tape and you were like, it's a goose bumpy type book on tape thing
Starting point is 00:02:34 or something like that or a soundtrack. There's a collection of silly songs but the first track was like synthesizers. But you were saying like it's from like 1993 or something. I can't remember then
Starting point is 00:02:44 and I was like no it's not. Are we having a redaction right here? Or not a redaction? What's that called? It's an apology as well. An apology? How are you told? Jamie, please.
Starting point is 00:02:53 Jamie? Get off the internet, Jamie. Jamie, come on. Sign off, man. Not a redaction. I can't think of the word. word. It's like in the news when somebody corrects a news article.
Starting point is 00:03:03 It's not an apology. You think about it, why I apologize. No, but he's apologizing. And actually, it isn't like in the news when they're like, we'd like to make an apology tonight. We said that George Bush was still alive last night, but we'd like to say sorry about that. Okay, keep going about me. Well, I was like, there's no way this tape is old.
Starting point is 00:03:22 This is a new tape. They're fucking with you. They're fucking with me. They're trying to make me an idiot. And one of the things I said was like, look at this tape. It doesn't have a screw in it. Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah. Now, I remember that being your, yeah, that was your got you. Gotcha, yeah. I was like, I turned around with my fucking trench coat on, one more thing.
Starting point is 00:03:39 Retraction, not redaction. Retraction. No, but he's apologizing to me because he attacked me personally. Well, I was also at one of these thrift stores, and I got a tape. And the tape is called Something New to Do. This is very intriguing. And Jamie, what was intriguing about it was not that it said, it's just a tape, a yellow cassette in just the Noroka case,
Starting point is 00:04:05 and there's nothing else. And it wasn't that it was something new to do. It was the name of the label. The name of the label, I saw that, and I was like, okay, I need to check this thing out. Troll Associates. Troll Associates. I was like, what is Troll Associates?
Starting point is 00:04:21 Do they have Troll Associates.com? Well, you can check. They might be peterpan.com slash troll associates. Well, it was 86. This was like, yeah, late 80s, book on tape. It originally had a book. And troll associates or troll records put out this kind of stuff. And look, there's my spank desk telling me there's no screw in this tape.
Starting point is 00:04:45 Yeah, there's no screws. There's no screw. And I was like, well, maybe tapes didn't have screws all the time back then. I don't know now. See? This is a Bernstein-Ber. I love that, like, why you were like, aha, see, they didn't. Screw!
Starting point is 00:04:58 Screws didn't make it to tails. I got them, everybody. I got them. Dead to rights. Like, yeah. I came loaded for bear. You were so confident. I like that one side says,
Starting point is 00:05:09 Go to Joe. Audible signals. And it also says, duplication prohibited. But then on the second side, it says no signals. No signals. Does that mean it's blank?
Starting point is 00:05:19 It's blank on that side. Okay. And you know. You're listening on that side yet? I didn't. And I'm glad you brought that up. Because this tape came in a baggie, a plastic baggie with two other cassette tapes.
Starting point is 00:05:28 And one of them is actually right behind you, that Fisher Price tape. It's the cat in the hat. And, yeah. It's the cat, no, no, that yellow tape that says Fisher Price on it. Oh, okay. And it's the cat in the hat, audio book. But on the, everybody remembers that.
Starting point is 00:05:44 The label's upside down. They didn't know how to do it yet. Maybe it went into the tape like that. But on the B side, it's like record your own story and it's someone practicing piano. Oh, that's nice. And I kept hoping that at one point you could hear like a younger sibling.
Starting point is 00:05:58 pestering around in the background, but I was hoping the person playing the piano was going to speak, and they never did. Yeah, because there's a tab still in it. Look at that. Yeah. So you only record... Oh, I bet you it came like that.
Starting point is 00:06:09 Yeah, yeah, yeah, came like that. Interesting. That's technology. That's early man technology. Only having one tab in there. So here's an interesting question. Okay. I love interesting questions.
Starting point is 00:06:23 I love interesting questions. I love interesting questions. has a tab here. When you're looking at side two, the tab that is currently there is on the left side. Does that mean you can only record on that side because this tab is still there?
Starting point is 00:06:38 Are there two tabs because... No, I think that's what it means. Yeah, I think it is too, but I've never thought about that. I've never just covered one tab. One controls side A and one control side B. I never thought about that. So it still allows you, you cannot record over side A because that tab is gone.
Starting point is 00:06:56 but you can record a side be. I never thought blew my mind. Learn something new every day on a tape podcast. A little active benevolence from them. Wow. Very interesting stuff. It's like we didn't use half the tape. You use it for whatever you need.
Starting point is 00:07:11 But don't use this side. But don't use this side. This side is done. We're going to make sure that you can't. Please don't use this side. That's Joe B's interesting question of the episode. It wasn't a, well, I guess it was. Guys, I like to hear what you think about drugs.
Starting point is 00:07:24 The retraction. So the Troll Associates. I wanted to show you guys this. Jamie, you're not going to be able to really see that well because my computer's not facing you. And I don't have my glasses on. You put your glasses on, Joe, because it's kind of small. So this is the troll records, like, logo.
Starting point is 00:07:37 This, like, it's a circle. I know, it's a little guy playing. What's that, like, a kind of loot or flueger. Yeah, I've seen that before. You know where you've seen it? Is it sleep or something? Out of season spoofed. Yes, they did.
Starting point is 00:07:48 And I have this hat. And when I saw that was the logo, I said, I have that out of season hat. And I was looking for it, but I couldn't find it. I don't know where it is. This is blowing my mind. I know. So I was like, okay, so I'm definitely going to get this.
Starting point is 00:08:00 And the tape itself is just like, if someone reading the story, I think there's an octopus having a good time. But there's about, I don't know, seven songs that play in the background that like repeat. Okay, yeah. And I grabbed like three of my faves. Oh, nice.
Starting point is 00:08:16 With the, obviously, you get the story on top of it. So it's like a two for one. That's so awesome. So, yeah, something new to do, troll associates from you said what 1986. 86 yeah so that's I started off I bid you a fondue
Starting point is 00:08:34 my good gentleman I apologize thank you and I come hat in hand with a redaction for my friend Joe and I'm so sorry got it got it all right Jamie
Starting point is 00:08:49 wow I gotta follow that one up well you know what I got a good one. We got to email the guy from out of seasonally. Yeah. Gotcha. Oh, yeah. Oh, no. I'm contacting his lawyer, if anything. Yeah. And I'm going to say, unless you want this podcast episode, the podcast episode's going to be public. No one's going to listen to it, but I will tell people to check it out unless you
Starting point is 00:09:15 give me five, four of those hats. Yeah. All my boys want the hats. And your new tapes. Oh, they won't send. They don't need to send it to us. What, Les? Come on. All right, Jamie, what do you got? All right, so if you all remember, go back in time just a little bit, there was the World Cup. And me and Mike did a bonus episode where we interviewed Austin from Jollies and Angel Mark Lloyd. I remember that. On that episode, Austin mentioned this tape, Hymns for Animatronic Dinosaurs.
Starting point is 00:09:42 Oh, yeah. Which caught my ear. What? But I saw it in the mailbag. It being said, caught your ear? Yeah, being said, it's stuck in my crawl. So I saw it in the mailbag, pulled it out, and I'm going to play a try. track from this, but I
Starting point is 00:09:56 got to tell you guys, I went down a rabbit hole last night related to this artist Nathan Harper. So, if you guys don't mind pulling up your cell phones and going to www.Nathanharperart.com. Okay, Jamie, I will. But can you excuse me real quick? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:10:12 Hey, Joe. Yeah. All right, I'm back. Thanks. Wait, Nathan Harperart.art.com. Nathan Harperart.com. And I'm going to share Joe's phone. and the next thing I want you to do, let me know when you're there. Now go to virus.orgia.
Starting point is 00:10:32 Okay, I'm on it. Okay, click on artist statement. Okay. Can you just, first of all, read that first sentence. And let me, there's a word in there that I don't know how to say it, so I'm going to try it. I was hoping it wasn't a common word that I was dumb and everybody else knew, but I didn't know. So read the first sentence and then tell me what you think that picture is. read the first sentence and then tell Jamie what you think the picture is.
Starting point is 00:10:59 So we're going to start off with that first sentence, go. Here we go. Give me some reverb or something. Yeah, a little song. Or some background music. Or pitch me down. Make a meal of it, Jamie! We can't pitch down anymore. We don't have the barrens.
Starting point is 00:11:08 Oh, okay. My work centers around the ancient Western esoteric concept of the egregor and its continued relevance in contemporary life. The egragor. Oh, agregor. Stop there. There. Oh, Egregor?
Starting point is 00:11:22 I know what that is. you do? Yeah, I take that. That's diabetes medication. Okay. Yeah. So the picture there. I know what that picture's from.
Starting point is 00:11:31 You do? Okay, so I didn't. I had to like paste that into Google and be like, what is this? And then I went down a rabbit hole from that. That's from the alt-right thing in where, uh, that's not from the people holding the, the, uh... Let me say? No, no, no, no. The, what's it called?
Starting point is 00:11:46 The tiki torches. This, that's not the Charlottesville thing. It's not the Charlottesville thing. But the character, I believe, is. from the rescuers. Yeah, it is from Rescue Rangers. Rescue Rangers.
Starting point is 00:11:57 Yeah, I was going to say this looks like, it looks like the Rescue Rangers cardboard cutout is there. Yeah. And it's also... Do you show on that
Starting point is 00:12:06 to me? Because I find that I'm a little horny right now on that because of that? Oh, yeah, Joe. Actually, Joe. Are you testing?
Starting point is 00:12:14 Do you know what her name is? Her name is Gadget Hack wrench. All right, so it's not from Charlottesville. And... No, but it has Tiki torches.
Starting point is 00:12:22 So the Tiki torches. are a cult from Russia that worshipped this, what I say, gadget hack wrench. And what they were trying to do was the, egregore, that concept. So what that means is, if enough people focus on this thing, it kind of wills it into being and creates this feedback loop so that it's manifested. So they were trying to manifest like the spirit of gadget and hackrunch. And I'm not kidding. You can Google this.
Starting point is 00:12:53 It was in Russia, and it was a thing. I was kind of right about that virus by Russia. You ever read that Neil Gaiman book or seen the show American Gods? No. That's kind of that concept. The gods are real, but only as powerful as if people believe in them. If people believe in it. And the less they believe in them, their power goes away.
Starting point is 00:13:11 Okay. It's kind of like a drop-dead threat theory. Wow. Interesting, Jamie. What a rabbit hole to go. So anyway, to bring it all back to Nathan Harper. So that's his, I guess, his artistic. statement is centered around that.
Starting point is 00:13:25 So this tape about music, hymns for animatronic dinosaurs, I'm guessing he's trying to bring the dinosaurs back. Is all of his music centered around this specific cult and that, um... Well, no. He's, it's the concept of egg, agragor.
Starting point is 00:13:39 Oh, it's just the concept of that kind of stuff. And that's a picture of a, example of that. Of a group of people trying to give a non-physical entity some kind of physical manifestation. Physical manifestation, yeah. So I found it very interesting, and I found myself reading about this for about 30 minutes last night, and then I come to you, and you can, if you choose to go down the rabbit hole, go for it.
Starting point is 00:14:06 But anyway, this is a Nathan Harper tape. Nathan Harper is, this is another rabbit hole I went down. It says he's from Alabama on the band camp. Yeah. I did a little snooping. Oh, my God. You checked out. Where did you go? I'm not going to dox the guy.
Starting point is 00:14:21 Social Security website. He is a college professor somewhere that's not Alabama. Well, Jesus Christ, Jamie. He might be lying to the university. What is he? He's just on Zoom and he's like, no, I'm here. I just can't make it into that. I don't know.
Starting point is 00:14:36 I don't know. But he's clearly an academic person. Where is he teaching? I can't tell you that's docs. I don't want to dox. Look, I'll look at you and you give me. Well, hold on. Let me just say this.
Starting point is 00:14:45 Yeah. On his website, he has his CV. which I can't remember what that stands for. Curriculum vitae. And it's on there. 2020 to present, he's a professor. I won't say it. People can go to the...
Starting point is 00:14:56 But he's a professor of digital arts and creative technology. Don't even say that much. And fine art. I think this is too much. I think even that was too much information. This is high art, Jamie. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:15:08 This is serious. It's a good tape. It's kind of like ambient drone glitchy stuff. It's cool. Yeah, he's a good tape. This is very serious. Jamie, don't say anything. Just give me, like, with a look, whether
Starting point is 00:15:20 during your investigation, did you get, like, his home address? Yes, big yes. Up and down. Hurt in his neck on up and down. Looking up at the ceiling, looking down on his feet. What's this called again, Jamie? Music for, or hymns for Atimatronic Dinosaurs. This isn't on his music slash noise releases thing on his CV on his official website.
Starting point is 00:15:41 What year did this come out? 2026. This is brand new, baby. It only has one, two, three, four. Four releases on here only goes up to 2025. So he hasn't updated. That's a big machinic number. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:15:54 It's a new release. Yeah. Interesting. So Nathan Harper. Nathan Harperhart.com. This is on Jollies. On Jollies. We haven't enough.
Starting point is 00:16:02 Jollies. I want to say this. I don't know if Jollies listens to this podcast. They definitely send us a lot of stuff. You can send, you can wait and send a bunch at once. I feel like there's a Jollies package every week. And I love it.
Starting point is 00:16:16 I love that label. I love Charlie. Joby, you tattooed me, and I referenced their logo as a, like, a reference for it. Of like an artistic styling? Not even that. Not even that. No. I just wanted Joby to be thinking about the label when he was doing it.
Starting point is 00:16:35 Oh, like an egregor. No, not like that. Mikey, the tape you've been waiting for just came in. Too mean. Yeah, just wait and, like, send like, three in one package. All right. It's the economical way to do it. Joe B.
Starting point is 00:16:48 Less carbon. I have two tapes also from the thrift store. Oh, okay. But these are from a place that I've gotten them before. I won't docks them. Are you playing both of these at once?
Starting point is 00:17:00 No, I'm just looking at them. Okay. Didn't know what these were. I'll leave you big. But here's the first one. This is really, really scary and difficult. This tape is by someone named Edgar Wappenhalter on Goody
Starting point is 00:17:16 tapes. Can you spell that? It is W-A-P-P-P-E-N-H-A-L-T-E-R. I meant the name of the tapes. Oh, Go-D-Y. Yeah, G-O-A-T-Y. Like, damn, girl, you goadie. She's all enough to be my mother. And I had no idea what I was. I put it in today. This is something you got to figure out what I'm going to play today.
Starting point is 00:17:39 You got this at a thrift store? Oh, I didn't even open this up. That's a nice little cut. Yeah. No, at not a thrift store. at a record store. At a record store. I was going to say,
Starting point is 00:17:49 because these don't seem like your typical thrift store finds. No, no, no. At a record store, I'm sorry. Yeah. A used record store. This isn't like sounds of model trains.
Starting point is 00:17:57 They have new stuff too. Look at the J card. Look at this little... They die cut the hell out of it. Dye cut. A little scalloped edge die cut on the second fold. Yeah, and it's,
Starting point is 00:18:07 I believe cut maybe by hand because it's kind of bad. What kind of music is this? Sound collage. Really? See, you found this sort of a thrift. store? No, Jamie, please. This is why our listeners ain't you? This is why
Starting point is 00:18:22 Joby talks about you badly when you're not around. I did my retraction already Jamie, I said that. Oh, come on, Shane. Sorry. Yeah, this looks cool. I was going to say, do you think they bought like this paper and they came up with the art around that shape? But then I saw how poorly it was cut, which is not... Oh, you know what? It is pretty poorly cut. Which is not negative.
Starting point is 00:18:45 I still like it. I like it. I'm just saying... Because if you look at it... If you look at it from this side, though, Mike, the side with the printing, you can't tell... I'm sorry, I can't get over how bad we went on Jamie there. Can we just apologize?
Starting point is 00:18:58 Jamie, I'm sorry. I'm sorry. When I listen back to these episodes, I go hard on myself because I'm like, I hear it, and then I hear myself being like, uh-uh. But it's really... What it is is me going on discogs trying to furiously look up stuff and then hearing half of what you guys are talking about. All right, Mike, look at it from this angle.
Starting point is 00:19:15 Okay, done. No, but close. I feel like you can't tell as bad how bad it's cut. Because it kind of does go with the printing. Yeah, they scalped it.
Starting point is 00:19:25 It's kind of like a cloud cut around, but they didn't do it that good. I don't think it's that bad when you look at it like that. I'm okay with it. I am great with it. I love it.
Starting point is 00:19:37 I'm just... Yeah, this is like... I also love the paper that they chose. Tape loopy sound collage, mixing in and out. And he has all the stuff's from. Tape loops taken from Jessica Rylund.
Starting point is 00:19:51 Oh, okay. That's a blast from the past. Can't, right? The Alan Lomax collection. Caribbean Voyage. Mike Lambrites. Bats. I always get a kick that in my vinyl LPs
Starting point is 00:20:04 can and can't live right next to each other. Think about that. You walk by your C's and you're like, can't and can't. Look at them. They're still there. Aunt Molly Jackson, unknown. So I just start it. Just start it.
Starting point is 00:20:18 Yeah. On the A side. Okay. It looks like you may, have you listened to a little bit of it? I listened to a little bit, and I fast forward a little bit or rewind a little bit, and I was like, this is good. So on the side of this. That's terrible. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:20:30 Jamie, what are those from? It's. Rugrats. What's the guy that does the baseball stuff on TikTok? Bob Yucer? John Boy Sports. Oh, I don't know. I don't like sports that much.
Starting point is 00:20:43 Okay. He does like, when they do the playbacks, he reads their lips, and then he, like, says what they're saying over time. It's very funny. That's very funny. I like that. It's terrible. Like bad lip reading. Fucking horseshit.
Starting point is 00:20:56 Oh, I like that. All right. I like it, too. Shall we play these three tapes and start the episode? All right. Here we go. Let's begin. The thing was a hermit crab.
Starting point is 00:21:10 It wanted to be left alone. A hermit crab is not very friendly. This is fun. said Elroy. This is not fun, cried the hermit crab. The hermit crab pinched Elroy. Ouch, cried Elroy. Getting pinched is not fun at all.
Starting point is 00:21:39 Elroy left the hermit crab alone. I want something new to do that does not pinch, said Elroy. So away he went. Elroy swam this way. Nothing new there. Elroy swam that way. Nothing new there. He swam every witch way.
Starting point is 00:22:04 It was not easy to find something new to do. Something, cried Elroy, something new. It is big. It is dark. It is the big, dark mouth of a cave. Elroy swam in. He swam into the mouth of the big dark cave. Its cave looks funny, said Elroy.
Starting point is 00:22:41 It has teeth. It has a big tongue. Yipes! This is not a cave! It is the mouth of a whale! Quickly, Elroy tried to swim out, but it was too late. The mouth of the whale closed. Elroy could not get out.
Starting point is 00:23:06 Elroy yelled. His yells made bubbles. The bubbles tickled the whale's tongue. Sneezed the whale. Out came Elroy. Out he came very fast. The sneeze sent him spinning top over tentacles. Around and around he went.
Starting point is 00:23:33 Bunk. Elroy crashed into something. It was the mast pole of an old sunken ship. Elroy grabbed onto the mast. He wrapped his tentacles around it. Zip! Down the mast pole he slid. Bud!
Starting point is 00:23:55 He landed on the deck. Ouch! He landed so hard, his backside hurt. There on the deck, Elroy sat. He was sore and dizzy. He had nothing new to do. Poor Elroy. Finally, his head stopped spinning.
Starting point is 00:24:19 He looked around. This is an old pirate ship, he yelled. Exploring a sunken ship is something new to do. Okay, we're back. Well, it's a little too late now. I don't even know if I want to go forward if you didn't record that. I just want to say to the listeners that before we came back, Mike was going hard in the paint with a little jam.
Starting point is 00:31:47 It's a little sound clip. Collage art of his own that he was doing. I don't know if I would like to do it again, but I don't even know if I can get it back. No, no, no. Because I kind of like, did you see how my eyes got milky white? Oh, you zoned in. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:31:58 That's when Jamie should hit record. Hit record. And I was like, it's weird because as I was looking down on myself, like above myself, I'm looking over at Jamie going like, I'm screaming record but no sounds coming out my mouth. I think it had a food man vibe. I really thought it was good. Yeah. That could have been my first actual.
Starting point is 00:32:16 Yeah. You could have got discovered just from that and someone had been like. First thing I would ever have been proud of. That's for sure. I think someone could have emailed and be like, do you have any more? of that. I think that would have garnered multiple emails. But,
Starting point is 00:32:29 but Jamie, whatever. I love garnering emails. Yeah. Alas. It didn't happen. You ever catch the Garner belt at a wedding? Garner belt. The Garner belt.
Starting point is 00:32:38 Something new to do, Troll Associates. I'm going to text that later. Something new to do. Nathan Harper, hymns for animatronic dinosaurs on Jollies. And Edgar Wappenhalter. On Goody.
Starting point is 00:32:51 What's the name of that tape? Spigloven. I wasn't going to try to say the name of the tape. I don't know when that came out either. James, did you figure out? 2009. 2009, old one? 2009.
Starting point is 00:33:01 Class from the past. Yeah. 2009, long time ago at this point. Before Jamie got into experiment. I still listen to Bungle and Zorn. Oh, yeah. We know. That's like, sounds like an old like cat skills group.
Starting point is 00:33:14 Bungle and Zorn. Tonight, playing at the casino. The casino. Just the casino. The casino. I couldn't think of anything. Come on, Jamie. All right, who wants to start off this block?
Starting point is 00:33:28 Joe, like, I liked how that Nathan Harper one had some, like, a little bit of singing in it. No, he was Nathan Harper. I was Edgar or Wappenholter. You were a Nathan, that's right. And yours had some, like, singing in it. Yeah, it turned. I guess I was, when I did listen to it earlier,
Starting point is 00:33:42 it was mostly looping soundcloths, but then it morphed into a nice little song. That's what I meant. Yours had some singing in the guitar. And I think some of my final tapes that I have here have singing? Lots of singing, Just chill.
Starting point is 00:33:55 Just sitting by the campfire with the drug rug on. Remember drug rugs? Oh, yeah, I had one. Waring one of those wonder where you're going to score a joint listening to this kind of music. Yeah, yeah. So, well, that's what I got coming out. But Joe or Jamie? I left mine at Bonner.
Starting point is 00:34:15 Joe or Jamie, who wants to go on Sarawks. I'll just go because I'm going to play another tape from the record store. Your hall. My hall. The kids are calling that. They call that a hall. This is a band called Dumbwaiter. You dumbwaiter.
Starting point is 00:34:30 And the tape's called gouache gist. And the reason why this one peaked my tipped my hat is because it's... Jamie, who's it mastered by? Guess. Probably by the guy from Canate. What's his name? Survey said. Ding ding.
Starting point is 00:34:47 Really? Oh, you got it? What's his name? James Plotkin. James Plotkin. Oh, wow. You got it. If you get a tape mastered by James Plotkin, you'd be.
Starting point is 00:34:56 doing something right. He ain't just going to master anything. He ain't going to just take your tape and go, yeah, I made it better. This was recorded in Baltimore, so this must be, maybe it's a Baltimore band. Joe B. We got Nathaniel Roseberry on drums and vocals, Nicholas Kreider on guitar, Keith
Starting point is 00:35:12 Paul on bass, and Tristan Brennis on saxophone. I just want to say, Jamie, after you're sleuthing into this other person's personal life, it's, do you see how Joe B can do it just as easily. Recorded in Baltimore. Lightbulb goes on. maybe this band's from Baltimore.
Starting point is 00:35:32 Yeah, I want you guys to tell me afterwards who you think this band sounds like. I can't tell you now. No, no, because you haven't listened to it yet. Bloodhound gang. Let's guess now. Let's guess and see who's closest. No, I don't want you to do that. Why?
Starting point is 00:35:46 I don't know. I can't play a game with my friends. This isn't really a game. I just was like, I don't know who this sounds like I was going to ask them. It sounds like something. I mean, we can still do it afterwards, too. Now the thing, I don't care anymore. I'm sorry.
Starting point is 00:36:01 Come on, Joe. No, I don't know what it's going to say. The label that this is called is, I don't know how to say it. O-S-S-E-I-N. O-S-E-I-N. Jamie, look that up, please. O-S-E-N. Yeah, you look that up.
Starting point is 00:36:21 So it's not, I would assume it's on the same label as the other one because it's got the same color. This is a band. This is straight up rock music But it's got the same color Oh, it does have the same color No, just coincidences That's just purely coincidence
Starting point is 00:36:34 Purely. Do you think when you were at the record store And you saw that they had the same color Do you think that? Oh, I found their Instagram You think that led into you buying that? Oseen Collective I guess nobody cares about that
Starting point is 00:36:46 Yeah, no one cares about you. Moving on. Oh, that's Oseen Collective, you found that? Releasing stuff when we can. Dumbwaiter Band At Dumb Wader Band. You know, why is it like the dumb waiter goes up and down
Starting point is 00:36:56 that does that. The lazy Susan spins around. Why are we being so mean to these things? Dumb, lazy. Come on. What about a helpful Susan? There's a Kirby enthusiasm bit around that. Do you guys remember that one? Oh, wait. I call her the indefatigable Susan. Oh, shit. I didn't know what this was already a bit.
Starting point is 00:37:13 All right, moving on. All right, Janie. I have a tape. I just bit my lip away. Right here by Walker Yancey. Walker Yancey. It's familiar. Walker Yancey does the project Vernal Scunel
Starting point is 00:37:26 Oh, Vernal Scuds. We played them before. These boats sound like... These boats sound like old racist sheriffs. Yeah. There is a label that this person runs called... Now, I'm assuming. I'm making an assumption because all of their projects
Starting point is 00:37:42 are on this label. Do you show you want to dock them? So, Sweet Reith. Sweet Reef. Oh, yeah. Alabama. I'm going to pass this around, but be careful with it because...
Starting point is 00:37:51 Just know it. There is a four-leaf clover in a baggie. Oh, there's a... A real four-leaf clover in a baggie. Those are good luck. Oh, you've got to be very careful with that. That's like two dime bags.
Starting point is 00:38:04 Yeah, that is. That's like a 25-cent bag. Are any of you guys good with forensics? Because the cover supposedly has a drop of blood on it. Oh, let me see. Oh, that's, you can't do that. Yeah. And if you look at the cover, it looks like a blood.
Starting point is 00:38:18 I'm trying to be gentle. It looks like a blood. And, um. Yeah. Oh, I see it. I thought you were like, I thought you were like trying to, I had to find it. Like it evidently had...
Starting point is 00:38:29 No way, that's the cover. Yeah, but I can't tell if it is like just like a print of it or if it's actually like real blood. Yeah. I forgot my tools. Did you smell it? I didn't smell it. You want me take it to my DNA guy?
Starting point is 00:38:41 Take it to your DNA guy. That would be interesting. It would be interesting to see whose blood it is. Is it Walker Yancey's blood or somebody else's blood? Oh, yeah. You put it in like, do they have a system at like 23 Me where you can just mail them tapes and they'll figure that out for you? I mean, I can score.
Starting point is 00:38:56 I don't know what I can do. So this is released on vinyl and cassette. However, if you go on the internet, it only mentions the vinyl. There is no mention of cassette anywhere. So I don't know how many of these came out. Where'd you get it? I don't know if it's from the mailbag. I'm not sure if this is on Sweet Reith, but it matches what the vinyl record looks like, which is on Sweet Reith.
Starting point is 00:39:15 I'm going to say this is on Sweet Reith. It was released this year. This is the first release under Walker Yancey's name. Do you think they made just one just for us? Maybe. Could be. They put the clover in there, too, and not all the vinyl versions get the clover. Only 30 of the 100 get the clover.
Starting point is 00:39:31 Did they get the blood? All of them get the blood. Not sure who's blood. Man, you'll lose a lot of blood. I'd like to see, like, the LPs getting significantly more blood on them, and the last one. It's just like, maybe it's like the police trawling around his arm or something. You know, I would just go to my butcher and just ask him for it. Oh, that's a good idea.
Starting point is 00:39:52 A new butcher, actually. New butcher. Yeah. Your last one is not giving me any more blood? I just don't like the cuts anymore. Yeah. They're too thick. They're getting thicker, and I'm like...
Starting point is 00:40:02 You don't like them thick? No. You've got to have thin cuts. No, I like very thin. You got to be like, cut them goady. See what that does. Okay, well, that's interesting. I'm going to say that's probably just for us.
Starting point is 00:40:15 That's a Tabs-out exclusive. I would hope so, and that's pretty cool, because I have it, and now I can hold on to it, let it accrue in value, and then go sell. I'll put that on Discogs. Years later. Jamie, you need to get like a shirt that has, or like a suit that's like money signs but also cassette tapes. And you're just like the crazy guy on TV.
Starting point is 00:40:34 Yeah, he had like question marks, right? No, that is the Riddler. That was the Riddler. He was also on TV, though, the Batman. And he was crazy. And he was crazy. You know, Scratch out, Jamie, you should just be the new Riddler. Be the new Riddler.
Starting point is 00:40:48 You know, I don't know. Maybe I'm holding out hope that one day these things will be worth worth something. And it'll coincide when I'm actually trying to get rid of them. Right. Because I'm not ready to do that yet. I like tapes. I like my tapes. But at some point, you hope they're worth a little schmeckles.
Starting point is 00:41:02 And then that's when I'm getting a little older and I'm like, I'm over this. And then all of a sudden, some influencer starts making this channel about tapes and vintage tapes. And then I can just start posting them. You put some thoughts. That's my retirement. That's your retirement. It's pretty good. Can I have all that stuff back then that I gave you?
Starting point is 00:41:19 Oh, that's a good point, Joe. You haven't thought about this. I didn't think about my retirement. Yeah, well. Really got me bummed out now. Way to pull the ladder up behind you, Jamie. What am I going to sell? I guess us.
Starting point is 00:41:28 We'll just sit down here. I'll take care of you. All right. Oh, he's going to take care of you. Trickle down, economics. Come on, Jamie. Jamie, how are you doing, old buddy? Okay, well, should I play tape two then?
Starting point is 00:41:39 I thought that's what we do. I believe, I know I have two I want to play together and one that I'm going to play on its own. I think I'll do the one on its own now. So this tape, I'm a little confused on the name of the artist. And where the tape got to. Oh, here it is. So the label is Spleen Coffin. Joe B.
Starting point is 00:42:03 Oh, spleen Coffin. Who's that? I know that. They're from Baltimore. Timothy Weisnecky or something like that. He's played Final Friday if you guys. Yeah, that's familiar. They're from Baltimore, so maybe they'll know that band.
Starting point is 00:42:12 You were playing who might be from Baltimore. Oh, they might know. Who knows? Maybe they know each other. Cowropkin. So I think the band's name is, 018. Those four numbers.
Starting point is 00:42:25 018. And the name of the cassette is fun with your lowry organ. With your what organ? Lowry organ? What's that? Is that how you say Lowry organ? I don't know.
Starting point is 00:42:35 I'm still not familiar with the organ. Oh, that's... It's not like an organ in your body. It's like an old organ that you like. Oh, a Lowry. Yeah. A Lowry. With your...
Starting point is 00:42:43 The proverbial. Think, ding, ding. Fun with your Lowry. It took me a second, too, because I was thinking of like an internal... organ. Yeah. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:42:52 Or external? Or external. What's an external organ? Oh, wait. Tickles when I go on roller coasters. I'll tell you when I see that, Jessica Rabbit. Yeah, the Lowry organ, guys, it was named efforts developer, Frederick C.
Starting point is 00:43:11 Lowry, 1871 to 1955, is Chicago-based industrialist and entrepreneur? Jamie, what do you know about the Lowry organ? I feel like, let me just sit back and hear what you know about the Lowry organ? It's an electronic organ named after its developer, Frederick C. Lowry. That's basically what I know about it. I thought you would, because you're a bit of a gear guy and an historian on these matters.
Starting point is 00:43:35 It's kind of like an organ that you picture in like your grandparents' basement that they're trying to sell, but nobody's ever going to want to buy it. At what point in my grandparents' life? And which side? My mom's are my dad's. Because that's going to be huge. I'm going to tell you right now, the organ in my dad's parents' house, is a lot different than the one of my mom's parents' house.
Starting point is 00:43:53 Your maternal grandfather's organ. Okay. Got it. It's in his basement. He's got a little speakeasy down there. No, he does not. No? No, he does not.
Starting point is 00:44:03 It's disgusting down there. Really? It's disgusting. Okay, but, I mean, be that as it may, behind some boxes. There's an old Lowry organ. There's no boxes. There's no room for him. No.
Starting point is 00:44:14 It's too disgusting, though. What's down there? Filth? Like, just sewage? A lot of sewage Yes Jamie Banana peels There's tons of banana peels
Starting point is 00:44:26 The avocado pits They're all down there Jamie There's no room for this organ It's big One of these things is big And I don't know why the tape is mentions that Maybe this isn't rock music
Starting point is 00:44:38 Sorry What are you talking about? Is this like easy listening music from the 50s or something? So this is the It's a it's a trio time consumer Naja Sky
Starting point is 00:44:52 and Administration DeVente I don't know Is anyone familiar with any of those names? I feel like I should be But it's a C60 from this year What really grabbed my attention
Starting point is 00:45:06 Jamie I'm going to toss the tape over to you Look at the imprinting on the show And it just explained to me I know a lot of what's going on with a lot of these imprintings But what's going on with that one it looks like it's a piece of they printed it on clear sticky paper
Starting point is 00:45:24 but it's not right it's like it looks like clear sticky paper all ripped up into little lines but I think it's imprinted on the tape am I wrong? No I feel like I see corners here that you can peel try to peel one I don't think you can I'm going to devalue this tape that's going to be worth so much money one day come on Warren Buffett peel the tape no I can't do it exactly it's that's imprinted on there but it doesn't
Starting point is 00:45:47 Doesn't look or feel like it, right? How they do that? It's raised. I feel like last time we played the tape and there was stuff inside the shell. No, no, I didn't get to see it. Sorry, I was wrapped up in my thing. What were you doing?
Starting point is 00:45:58 Looking up my next tape. Two hands, two hands. Trying to be prepared. I don't know my glasses on. All right, what am I looking at? The imprinting on the shell. Oh, yeah, let me see. And without your glasses, I don't know if your eyes
Starting point is 00:46:07 are able to see it. Yeah. It seems like... He got a virus. Oh. It's very tactile, though. You can kind of... No, but you can see the sticker.
Starting point is 00:46:17 No, but try to... That's what... If you were... What? If you were paying attention, Jamie already went over this. Oh, I just... No, it's imprinting,
Starting point is 00:46:26 because I just scratched them on. It's really soft. Yes. That's what I'm saying. I don't know how they got... Who did this? Who designed this? Or it's not imprinting
Starting point is 00:46:37 because it's not directly on the shell. It's on the sticker and the sticker was put on. We talked about this already? That was my... The whole thing's a sticker? The whole thing's a sticker. You see the edges.
Starting point is 00:46:47 Yeah, but then Mike said you can't peel it off. But I said try to peel it off. It doesn't peel off. You just got to get a corner started, which I did. Where? Oh, yeah, you can peel this off, Jamie. Oh, you can? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:47:00 You guys just have stronger fingernails than my... My doctor said I don't have enough carotene in my diet. Well, either way, it looks really cool. And I'm still kind of... I'm still kind of confused how they did it. But yeah, I'm going to play that one. I correct the code. Not carotene.
Starting point is 00:47:18 Cretine. No, carotin is what your nails, your fingernails made of. Carrots? I need to eat more. Organic carrots. Organic carrots. Okay, before we go over all this again, I'm not going to give in this debate with you about what kind of carrots are.
Starting point is 00:47:31 Let's just play these tapes. Right. Right. All right. will not expire in prayer behind, high walls removed in equal fashion from God and from all human God. Oh no, you wonder of creation, a different destiny is yours. You face a different tribulation, a different bliss and bounteous stores. Give up all previous ambition, renounce the fate of this sad world. Instead,
Starting point is 00:59:46 a lofty, splendid mission before your eyes will be unfurled. We're back. Oh, we're back. Why do you do that, Jamie? Why do you do that? Jamie, please. You record and don't let us know, and then when we want you to record, you don't. You look up, and it's like the illumination from his computer, like you can only
Starting point is 01:02:56 see his eyeballs, like kind of just, he's like a raccoon in the trash staring back at you. You really got to step up your game. Let me know, because I got to get into character. I'm ready to do this. I'm like a field recorder. I like to get things in their natural habitat. Yeah, if that was the other thing
Starting point is 01:03:10 that was perfect for that. Yeah, that's right. It's cool musical instruments. All right, we're back. Walker Yancey. And what's the name of that Walker Yancey? Oh, the Walker Yancey tape is called I'm a teenage Rice Field.
Starting point is 01:03:24 So this has something to do with your theme. Yeah, Jamie's theme. I have a theme. So I got hymns for Aminematronic dinosaurs and I'm a teenage rice field. Okay. Okay. What order did that go in?
Starting point is 01:03:36 Joe, you went first. I went first. And you played Dumbwaiter. And then Jamie went, and then I went. All right, all right. Now I got it. So I'll start off, since I have two. I'll start off this one with one and then end with one, too.
Starting point is 01:03:48 Wait, I thought you were playing two before. But before it already happened, did I play two? When does then become now? All right. That sounds like to bookend. You're going to bookend it. Yeah, and I might put some books in between them. All right.
Starting point is 01:04:00 So the tape I'm going to start off with is an artist that we actually played before. We played them. Speaking of back in the day, we played them in 2017. They're called T-U-T-H. T-U-T-H. T-U-T-H. T-U-T-H. The U's got some little dingbats on top of it.
Starting point is 01:04:21 Tooth. Oh, so it's tooth. So it's tooth. An um-loum-d-d-d-Bats. No, these are distinctly dingbats. Oh. I had to download... From windings?
Starting point is 01:04:32 Yeah, because I had to download a new font package Just to open it? Because otherwise it said, like, font not supported? Yeah, and open what? I don't know. Open what I don't know. I guess the website, I guess the Dreamers Lane, that's the name of the record label. I guess to get to their bank camp, first you have to download from that russia. That's okay. Website, yeah, I had to download the big bat font for Tath or Tooth.
Starting point is 01:04:59 Love You Deserve is the name of the tape on Dreamers Lane. I have it right. Love my music when I know where. it is. Oh, you know what? I got a P. Just go ahead. Let's go ahead.
Starting point is 01:05:12 Let it flow, buddy. I was trying to hold it. No, you can go ahead. Before you go, do you know that band disappears? Yeah. Do you do? Yeah.
Starting point is 01:05:20 On Cranky, this person uses to play bass for them. Would that impress you if I said that? Oh. Actually, I'm wrong. I was thinking of something else. And before you go with the P, you wanted us to guess with that band
Starting point is 01:05:29 that you just played sounded like. Oh, yeah. Well, not guess. It was just like, just like a, not guess. A friendly. like, what do you guys think this sounds like?
Starting point is 01:05:39 Like, so, I want to guess. It wasn't like a quiz. So dumb waiter. We're like, like, I just was like, I feel like it sounds like some other bands. And I was like, I want to get these guys' opinions. I guess, I guess it sounds like Don Cap.
Starting point is 01:05:52 A little bit. But I said that first. Not as complex. See, it didn't sound like Don Cab. And I said it sounded like Don Cab. And then it started sounding a little bit mathy. And then I changed my guess to battles at one point. But not really, because they're saxophone.
Starting point is 01:06:05 And it's a little cheesy. It sounded a little bit like Bungle towards the end. What does the band Z sound like? That's a little bit more minimalist. Just repetition like Steve Reich. I think. All right. You want to go pay?
Starting point is 01:06:22 Yeah. Okay, go ahead. Just do it. No, do it here. That might be a fixed game. Jamie, should we continue with this while he's gone or should we wave, make small talk? Is there any tape news? Do you have any, like, what was the last?
Starting point is 01:06:37 When you're at home with organizing your tapes, what is the one tip you can give our listeners? Man, room for expansion. Room for expansion. Like when you build a bridge, you need to put expansion joints in your bridge or else when winter comes, your bridge is going to break. So you're saying, like, build more. On your shelves, you need room for expansion because when you get more tapes, where are you supposed to put them? You know what I mean? So when...
Starting point is 01:07:02 And I keep running out of space. So I'm going to play this tape. by, what did I say this person's name was? Toth. On Dreamers Lane. And it's, like I said earlier, if you go back to the, earlier in the show, I said I was going to play some just music to chill out to with your drug rug on by the lake, with your friends.
Starting point is 01:07:23 And I think this and the tape I'm going to end the episode with. That's my theme. I got to Google what a drug rug is. You don't know what a drug rug is? What did you do in high school? Oh, I had one of those. Oh, yeah, right. I did.
Starting point is 01:07:34 I got, you are so. Fucking lucky Joe B went to pay. This was in like sixth grade, though. I think it was sixth or seventh grade. Yeah, I had one of those. My parents didn't keep it, so don't ask to see it. And I didn't take any pictures in sixth grade. You didn't have a drug rug.
Starting point is 01:07:49 We didn't call it that, though. None of us did drugs back then. What did you call it? We called it a Baja. A Baja? Yeah. As a matter of fact, when I Googled drug rug right under it said Baja. You know, the origin of the drug rug goes back to surfers in the 1930s and 1950s.
Starting point is 01:08:04 But not the 40s. there were surfers in the 30s Joe B, did you know the people surfed in the 30s, the 1930s? Yeah, that's really big ones, right? What?
Starting point is 01:08:16 All right, now I have to Google surfing in the 30s. That was the 30s, though? Yeah. Oh, wow. That wasn't a guess. Never would have guessed. All right, so I'm done.
Starting point is 01:08:25 Now we can go to you, Joe. You can pick a tape now that you're back and relieved. What year was nom? Surfing in the 1930s was a tightness, adventurous pastime Really?
Starting point is 01:08:37 There's pictures that you can go on. Are they really long, the surfboards? They're really long. Yeah. Yeah. They surfing in the dust bowl? In the dust bowl. No, you can't do them surfing.
Starting point is 01:08:46 Yeah. You can probably skimboard. The depression occurred all across the country, not just in the dust bowl. They were also on the coast experiencing it. Yeah. Yeah. I'm experiencing it right now. All right.
Starting point is 01:09:02 All right. Last tape I want to play is by cooling. prongs. I actually was hanging out some pretty fucked up guys and we smoked the dust bowl. I've never smoked
Starting point is 01:09:11 dust. I smoked a cooling prong. Cooling prongs. The tape's called 316 is on death bomb arc. This is an older one. I just pulled this off
Starting point is 01:09:22 my shelf because I was like, I want to, what have I, I know there's a ton I have never played before. And we used to play death bomb mark all this time. A lot.
Starting point is 01:09:28 Deathbomb arc number 230. At least it feels like we used to. So I pulled up a little info about this person. Is death bomb arc from Hawaii? Is that really true? Do you have any more information you want to tell me? Because I'm in the bandcamp.
Starting point is 01:09:39 It says Hawaii under the label. Go to another source. Go to discogs. No, they're from like Los Angeles. Yeah, right. Well, they might have an office. Maybe they vacation in Hawaii? While most know the experimental hip-hop group Clipping as a trio,
Starting point is 01:09:55 deep fans consider Christopher Fleger, aka Cooling Progs, to be the unofficial fourth member, handling the heavy lifting for clipping's extensive field recording work and typically found offstage emulating these sounds, and feeding them into the band on stage. Kling Prongs is a master at combining music, Concrete, and pop music. His new solo album explores the wild territory in depth
Starting point is 01:10:18 and shows off his love for rich vocal harmonies that we even make Sparks jealous. I don't know who Sparks is. Sparks, the duo and the musical duo. Oh, plus he wears a cute pink cowboy hat. What else could you ask for? I was going to say, I'd like a cute pink cowboy hat.
Starting point is 01:10:37 and then I'd be satisfied. There is a remix. The last track on Side B is a remix of a clipping track, but I'm not going to play that because I don't want us taken off Spotify. Now, is Sengier the unofficial fourth member of clipping kind of a flex? If someone said that they were the unofficial fourth stooge,
Starting point is 01:10:54 and they were like never in the bits, but when, like, Curly needed like a ladder, like, sent to him, he would, like, bring it over. Well, it was like, when they did, they're like, Bunk, you know, bit from the back. camera angle, it's actually the fourth stooge. They would do like, they would do like the fingers like halfway there and then freeze,
Starting point is 01:11:13 and then they would... It was actually his fingers. For close-ups. Oh, I thought it'd be his face just in case they went into the eyes. No, oh. It's trippy. It was his fingers? Yeah, it was only... All the close-ups of fingers are not mo's.
Starting point is 01:11:30 The close-ups. That was one of my favorite parts about the Three Stooges. Excuse me. My favorite part about the three studios was cinematically how the close-ups that they went to. Mo's left-hand, he only had four fingers. Oh, yeah.
Starting point is 01:11:47 You know Death by Mark has a Wikipedia page? Oh, look at that. You can't trust that. Is that where you're going for your news? Well, I was trying to see if they're in Hawaii. Show me some other. They actually started in Philadelphia. Do you know that?
Starting point is 01:11:57 Where else is your research from? Wikipedia. What a fucking noob. Well, hold on. They start in Philadelphia and then what? And then they moved to Los Angeles. and now I think, you know, they're getting older and I think they're ready to move to Sandier Shores.
Starting point is 01:12:11 Right, settle down a little bit. Left side media, typical. Left-hand media, sorry. Wing. No, Dave, the joke is left-handed media. Yeah, come on. I already did this. This is a reoccurring bit.
Starting point is 01:12:24 That might have been just between me and Mike. So you said the release number of this, but where does that put it in the timeline of Death Bomb Mark? Oh, they're on... A proud, proud label. Yeah. I didn't know Death by Mark that somebody had Death By Marks. guys know that?
Starting point is 01:12:37 They did like, yeah, the one right before the subpop one, right? Oh, wow. They're on 88. Oh, wow. And what was this? Like 230. Very early. Wait, that's not right, because it really jumps from 380 to 888.
Starting point is 01:12:53 I don't know how that works. That's a big Masonic number. And then there's Death Bar-Arc 1,07, which is the soundtrack, the Batman Unburied, a game or something, no, an audiobook maybe. Wow. So many rabbit holes. We've got to get that. I think the listeners need to pause the episode during specific parts and do their own research.
Starting point is 01:13:13 I have like a box, a death bomb arc, like box set that I think Thurston Moore is on it. And there's like three LPs and it comes with like a... Oh, this is an interesting loop of wormhole. What'd you called? Rabbit Hole. Rabbit Hole. It's a wormhole. The Batman one, which is the soundtrack to the Spotify audio series, Batman Unburied,
Starting point is 01:13:33 where a serial killer is terrorizing Gotham. the person that made this is in clipping Jonathan Snipes and he's scored films room 237 and starry eyes and shows like House of Ninjas Batman never really has to deal with serial killers well he does in Batman I'm buried
Starting point is 01:13:53 oh that must have really fucked him up and I don't know because what about the Calendar Man I think Calendar Man was a serial killer All right Jamie what are you playing All right I got a cassette tape here from the label Dead Definition from Oh!
Starting point is 01:14:08 Did that really hit you in the, in the peener? Yeah. I just, sorry, Mike. All right. Oh, wait a minute.
Starting point is 01:14:23 Yeah, yeah, Calender Man. Joe doesn't care. What happened? You got a groin injury. Oh, walk it off.
Starting point is 01:14:30 Calder Man is a Batman supervillain who commits crimes tied to specific holidays and dates. Okay, I've never heard of calendar, man. Yeah. Wow, it's a hit you in the testicle. Are you still?
Starting point is 01:14:43 Wow. Oh, you're really that bad, huh? Yeah. You want me to rub it? Do you have the ointment? But I am going to cut this part out. Walk it off. Wow.
Starting point is 01:14:57 Sorry. I haven't had that happening so long. It hurts really bad. Fucking external organs, am I right? Sorry, Mike. That's fun. Why would God make a sense? like that. Why don't those have a shell?
Starting point is 01:15:14 It does have a shell, but it wore off. Oh, you lost your shell? I never lost my shell. It keeps getting thicker. I have to trim it. All right, what are we playing? The label, dead definition. We've played them before. I feel like they have a logo that's like a cat.
Starting point is 01:15:33 From Philadelphia. It's like a little logo that's a cat. Oh, gosh, and this artist is called Lira Skiara. Lera Skira. Oh, I like that. It's not a person. It's a duo. Where is it? Where'd it go? It hit you in the ball. Check your balls. I didn't get.
Starting point is 01:15:51 Where is it now? In them? It's a green tape. Is this it? Yeah, that's it. Okay. Learoscura is Christine Rayburn and Patrick Glennon from Richmond, Virginia. Oh.
Starting point is 01:16:02 And, oh, a little marketing thing, Mike. I know you said you didn't like how they, like, vinyl, how they'll say like, puke green. Oh, yeah. This is marketed as apricot swirl, cassette. The cassette is? The cassette is an apricot swirl. This one here? This one here.
Starting point is 01:16:18 Swirl in what way? It's one solid color. No, no, no, look closer. You got to look closer. You got your glasses on. I mean, take my glasses off. No, that's, what? Hold on.
Starting point is 01:16:27 Look at it under her light. I saw it last night, I swear to you. I saw the apricot swirl. Let me say. Let me say. Okay. I'll be the judge. I think I rubbed it off.
Starting point is 01:16:36 I think he came up when it hit me in the balls. Oh, it's very subtle. But that's an apricot swirl. It's like a marble. There's no other edition. This is the cassette edition. Look right here. See that transition?
Starting point is 01:16:48 Oh, okay. Yeah. All right. I'm so sorry, Mike. I mean, I get art. Just a little tip to, like, people. Wait, I mean, when did this come out? Don't tell us what the color is.
Starting point is 01:16:58 Are you sure because there's no screws? Ah, the little callback. Come on, I already apologize. I already redacted that. That means it came out in the 80s. No, no, Joe, no, no. These people might not even been born then. Don't go down that wormhole, buddy.
Starting point is 01:17:12 But this tape is, I'm going to complete my theme here. Oh, what's it called again? The album title is On Chemical Lawns. Chemical Lawn. First tape was Him for Dinosaurs. Animatronic Dinosaurs. Second tape was, I'm a teenage rice paddy. No, I'm a teenage rice field.
Starting point is 01:17:27 I'm a teenage rice field. So. Hymns for Animatronic Dinosaurs. And this one's called On Chemical Lawns. On Chemical Lawns. So I get maybe the first. two. Lons and fields? Yeah, rice fields.
Starting point is 01:17:43 Rice fields and now lawns. Yep. You're on the right track. And then animatronic dinosaurs. I'm having some trouble fitting that into the field. Yeah, I am as well. It's a hard one. You want me to give you the answer? Yeah.
Starting point is 01:17:56 Because dinosaurs eat grass. Oh, what about the rice? Jamie, you got something. Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, I learned this. Rice grows off of a type of grass. and the seed is the rice. Are we sure that dinosaurs eat grass? Yep.
Starting point is 01:18:11 Yep, moving on. Jamie, you guys... All dinosaurs eat grass. Yes, I'm doing these themes, Jamie. Because was there grass, like 65 million years ago? The lawns were beautiful back. The HOA's back in the Jurassic period. Do you know there were tall mushrooms back then?
Starting point is 01:18:24 Oh, yeah. Yeah. And we're more closely related to a tall mushroom than we are a banana. See, I don't know why is it that they call them tall mushrooms, but I'm the same height. And they call me short. I saw a movie the other day, End of Oak Street.
Starting point is 01:18:39 You guys see anything about that movie? I've seen the previous movie. You know, the neighborhood gets teleported in Dinosaur Times. It was whatever. But the dinosaurs in the movie have feathers, which I enjoyed because I think science has proven they had feathers.
Starting point is 01:18:53 Not all of them. The Stegosaurus doesn't, but the T-Rex is a chicken. And the raptors are more bird-like, so they had feathers, and I really like that. That's cool. Because I've been petitioning for a re-edited of Jurassic
Starting point is 01:19:04 I've seen you out on the streets. Yeah, I've seen you on the streets. Because I need them. Like when Star Wars came back out, you know, when George Lucas put the new footage in, and he changed the song at the end of return. Love it. Yeah, he took away like, chub, jub, jab, jub. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:19:16 Chub job, job, jub. And he took that away. And he put in, or actually Bobafet shot first instead of, or no, Grito, instead of Hans Solo, which was in the original film, but he felt like it was more. Anyway, I've seen you, Joe B. I've seen you out on the streets with a sign about the dinosaur things. I'm a look confused about the sign. Make dinosaurs have feathers again.
Starting point is 01:19:41 Who is it for? Who are you telling? The world. It's not like, and they didn't egress. Ask your kids. When you get home, James, if dinosaurs had feathers. And they're going to say, no, in all my books and Jurassic Park, they don't. It's true.
Starting point is 01:19:55 It's true. Well, it's just like aliens and movies, they look like very humanoid, but they had feathers. The real ones don't. The real ones don't. The real ones are like, except for the Nordics, the gray, kind of, but the reptilians and the insectoies, they don't look like us. But they can, but they have the capability.
Starting point is 01:20:12 But admit that they have the capability. They don't look like us. The reptilians can shape, they don't look like us, but admit that they can, yeah, thank you. Thank you. And I can show you some YouTube videos where Hillary Clinton's bodyguard, his eye changes. You don't think I have those videos on a hard drive.
Starting point is 01:20:28 Oh, I got to look that up. Just in case they take them off of YouTube. It's on there, man. Do your research. Actually, not on Wikipedia, Jamie. Yeah, not on Wikipedia, Jamie. Hillary Clinton's eyes. Oh, she had concussion and vision issues.
Starting point is 01:20:39 It's not her. It was one of her Secret Service lackeys. Oh. Oh, okay. Hillary Clinton. Secret service. Secret service. Reptillion reveal.
Starting point is 01:20:48 Reptillion. Reptillion. You're not going to find it because it's not on the review. That's why I have it on the hard drive. It's all scrubs. What are you in Google? I'm in Google. Oh, my God.
Starting point is 01:21:01 Hillary Clinton adopts alien baby That'll be this from a tablet That's fake to throw you off the trail That's only on YouTube To throw you off the trail of my hard drives Where they release a whole bunch stuff That's really crazy To hide the fact of thing that
Starting point is 01:21:16 Then because then when I say the reptilian bodyguard You're like, yeah right This one said you're an alien This is up, see? I almost don't think dinosaurs had feathers I almost don't think that Because I think that's... Read my pamphlet
Starting point is 01:21:27 I just don't believe it Okay, so who played who... They also didn't have that Who didn't? Dinosaurs. What? They didn't land to lay eggs. They were like marsupials.
Starting point is 01:21:41 Pouch pouches. So who turns you know? Like a kangaroo. A pouch can't fossilize, that's true. A pouch can't... It turns into an egg shape. So they're like, see, they laid eggs. Look that up.
Starting point is 01:21:58 Can I please play my last date? Oh, yeah, sorry. I'm going to play See, Jamie, I'm into science I'm into science Lars learning to walk again after the lightning burned her legs

Starting point is 01:22:43 A couple new things, mostly old stuff. A lot of singer-songwriter stuff. Woods was the band that I was really into probably just before this era. This era. I never really got into Woods. I might have had one. At Rear House was a big one for me.
Starting point is 01:22:57 Oh, yeah. All right, maybe I like that. And then there was one. I can't remember where there's two people wear masks on the cover. Oh, like in the woods maybe, maybe that doesn't sound right. But
Starting point is 01:23:07 with Light and Love came out in 2014 on Woods'ist, which is, I guess Jeremy Earl, I'm going to make the assumption, Jeremy Earl, who's in Woods. I think that's either his label in part or with other people who used to run. Do you remember a little trivia here?
