Look at the sparkle in his eye.
He got excited for that, too.
He did.
He was like, they noticed.
This is the return of the number facts.

He's been waiting for us to ask.
I just wanted to see if you guys missed it.
Look in this Google search bar.
Does it say 33?
Yeah.
Like he just looked.
Just looked.
Just wait.
Let's start this one off with a tape from a new label called Nominal Loom.
Nominal Loom.
They just sent us three tapes.
It was their first batch.
They put out three cassettes.
Tweaky clean new.
Yeah, man. By a project.
Where are they from? I think they're from Alabama.
I think. Really?
I don't know. There's weird stuff going on
in Alabama? I guess the
tape I'm going to play... You don't want to be a
canner in Alabama. Oh, no.
There's still...
It's funny because it's 2013
and there are still fucked up canner laws in Alabama.
Yeah.
No, you do not want to be a canner down there.
I can't can on Tuesdays.
That's crazy.
Tapes by Gerditaro or Gerditaro.
I don't really know how to say it or anything.
Digital Natives.
And this tape that I'm going to play by Holly Waxwing.
You guys heard of this project or this person?
Goldleaf Acrobatics, a C50.
I believe this is the person who runs the label.
We got these tapes in the mail the other day.
And why do you believe this?
Through some research?
Through some research.
I went in.
I'm not like some fucking canter.
I did my research.
My mama raised me, right?
And take a look at it because right away, I looked at the artwork.
Everything's beveled.
Everything's beveled.
Everything's very light and airy.
3D.
Yeah, yeah.
These are treats.
These are...
Oh, look at that digital download card.
It's not just...
You know, everyone knows my gripe.
Oh, everyone knows J.P.'s gripe.
With the writing, but this one's okay.
This is awesome.
Yeah, it's very awesome.
This one's okay.
No, this is really cool.
Because it's not...
The piece of paper inside,
there's a separate piece of paper
that has the digital download code on it,
and it's not just a piece of white paper
that has it typed on there or whatever.
It goes with the cover art. You know what I mean? It's like a a piece of white paper that has it typed on there or whatever. It goes with the cover art.
You know what I mean?
It's like a full-color thing with a handwritten download code.
What do you got to say?
No, I got a question.
Track one featuring Pug.

Yeah.
Track five featuring Isla Apple.
Okay, Isla Apple.
Oh, Pug's old roommate. Isla Apple? How do you spell Isla? You don't know Pug or Isla Apple. Okay, Isla Apple. Pug's old roommate.

Like, man, you look like Pete Rose now.
So you're just going to diss your kids?
Who are you dissing?
I could start with the kids.
Your kids or Lennon's dad at the post office?
I could start with the kids
and see how that goes.
Then he says, what?
And you go, nothing.
I could start with my kids
and work up from there.
Test it.
Test out the waters.
I don't want to jump right in
like somebody who's
going to destroy me.
I would like to put
a hidden camera.
I'd like to see your day.
Trust me.
You would.
Lots of people would. Because I imagine you're in your underwear. Trust me. You would. Lots of people would.
Because I imagine you're in your underwear.
There's lots of movement.
No, no, no.
I'm dressed right away nowadays.
Because you never know when the mailman's coming.
You never know when something's going to happen.
You've got to do your trick.
You never know when the mailman's coming?

It's the idea for the sketch.
I'm the doctor.
I run through sketches.
I run through, like, I do some diatribes.
I just, you know, bust it all out.
Do some freestyle work.
I bet there's freestyle work.
You got to keep that clean, though.
Yeah, I realized that not that long ago.
Because, like, usually it's pretty raunchy.
It's like two live crew.
I like calling Mike and listening to see if the kids
are screaming in the background. If they are, I try to drag it out
as long as I can.
He does, yeah. He does that a lot.
Then finally, Mike's like, I gotta go. I gotta take care of this fucking kid.
And Dave's always like, one more thing.
One more thing.
It's never important.
Do you like peanuts?
Do you have a peanut allergy?
Mike doesn't like salted cashews, by the way.
No, it's not that I don't like salted cashews,
but when I have you go out to get me a salty snack,
don't come back with a tiny-ass bag of cashews.
What about a big bag?
A big bag would have been all right.
What about a couple of small bags?
All right. the smoke clears.
What about several fun-sized cashew bags?
This, for the record, is even smaller.
Fun-sized is like an airplane.
Just get a whole sleeve of them like they sell the gum.
I'm kidding, because that's not any fun.
This tape has a barcode on the back. Really?
Yeah. In case you're at Walmart
and they want to scan that one for you.

This is David Russell's project.
We've played a few tapes on a sound design recording.
Are you handing it to me?
I was going to hand it to you in case you wanted to look at it or whatever.
A lot of cut-up samples, vocals and different uh found sounds and weird weird stuff

That's his stage name.
Your middle name's Robert, huh?
Joe Bob.
No shit.
Joe Bob?
Yeah.
Wait, did you say it was his middle name?
No, no.
Russell's his middle name.
I'm assuming.
Russell's his middle name.
I don't know.
In the standard American first, middle, last, we got David Russell Stompowski Cleveland, Ohio.
That is an American standard.
Well, maybe
Alan Michael Haley.
Maybe his parents got divorced
and then his mom
remarried.
There's no explanation to that in there.
There was no the dash.
Hyphenated.
No, they don't necessarily need to be hyphenated.
Here's what happened.
He was named David Russell.
There was a divorce. Mom was
remarried to a man named Russell Stempowski.
He adopted
David Russell
and they came up with the name
David Russell Stempowski
okay got it nailed it
I'm sure that's it

on Compulsion Rites, new one that came out, C30.
I do like the idea of someone like David Russell makes greeting cards.
Like that then this old lady buys a store.
It's got to be an old lady.
Yeah.
That's probably the main market for a greeting card, right?
Old lady?
The guy in the factory making them.
Because it's a factory.
It's obviously a factory.
Everything's a factory.
Everything's a factory.
Makes this music.
Yeah.
Dave Russell, he just did the artwork for that new Tiger Hatchery LP.
Oh, nice.
What label is that on again?
ESP Disc.
Yeah, ESP Disc.
I think it's awesome that they had him do the artwork.
Yeah, that's real cool.
Yeah.
I thought they were done.
They're back?
Tiger Hatchery?
Yeah.
I mean, I don't know anything about it.
I remember at Voice of the Valley last year, they were saying, like, this is their last show.
Like, they're done.
I don't know.
They were being done.
I guess not.
Maybe I misheard.
Well, they just did, like, a short tour.
I don't think it was all...
One of the dudes didn't go.
Somebody else went in his place.
I forget who.
So, I don't know.
Hopefully they're not done.
I think it was just becoming rare that they were playing
because they're, like, all in three... They're each in, like, a different city. Everything's in not done. I think it was just becoming rare that they were playing, because they're all in three.
They're each in a different city, right?
Everything's in threes.
Everything always happens in threes.
One, two, three.
I think so, yeah.
One, two, three.
One, two, three.
Someone moved to Texas or something.
Yeah.
Texas.
And then somebody else is in Chicago.
Yeah.
Right.
All right, B, what do you got?
You got a special pick for us.
I'm changing the pace up a little bit.
Let's change it up.
So, Sick Sick.
German label.
And I don't really know too much about them.
They're weird.
These recipe tapes.
Where they pick an artist, right?
Who then talks and gives
their favorite recipe?
They pick someone who...
These were tapes that...
They didn't sell these tapes.
If you ordered the
entire batch, they would put out
a batch of tapes. And if you ordered them all,
you got one. Okay. I think
they've done two of them.
Yeah. The other one I saw was...
This is the first one? That's the first one. What is that?
For a sauce?
Pasta sauce. The red one.
And then... Is there a white one coming?
Maybe.
Is that the German word on the other side?
What's that other word?
There's a character there I'm not familiar with.
That weird uppercase B thing.
Tomaten.
Tomaten balls.
The red one.
You have to scream it.
The cover is...
Stacy's parents... What do you call that? What do I call sauce? The red one. You have to scream it. Yeah, and this is like, and like the cover is.
Stacy's parents, what do you call that?
What do I call sauce?
Yeah.
I don't call it gravy.
You don't call it gravy?
No, I don't like when people call it gravy.
I thought that was an Italian thing.
If it is or if it isn't, I don't know.
I don't call it that.
Oh, they call it gravy.
I don't like that.
I don't call it gravy. It blew my mind the first time.
Yeah, Dave, you're like French Dutch.
What are you?
My mom's side's
which really italian my real mom oh they're italian huh they're real italian yeah they don't they don't call it gravy no they don't call it what do they call uh manicotti uh i don't know
but they call ricotta rigol oh oh that's what it's called. You're of the Wilmington Italians. All right. The cover of this tape is...
And what do you guys call manicotti?
Monagot.
Monagot.
The cover of this is like all the ingredients that they used.
And it says, Sick Sick Recipes, a kitchen tape series.
This is Holger Adam is the...
I guess that's who we'll put as the artist.
Yeah, Holger Adam. I guess that's who we'll put as the artist. Yeah, Holger Adam.
And just a dude, and this is a C-15,
and he's...
Is it in English or is it in German? It's in English.
And he's just...
It would be nice if one side was English
and one side was German.
I had that queued up to a special point.
You had it queued up to the onion.
You know what I kind of wish it was?
I wish the A side was him reciting the recipe
and the B side was just a recording
of him making the food.
That would be good.
I think there might be some making of the food.
I've listened to this a couple times.
There's a part with some sizzling going on.
And there's a little bit of music in there too.
I like a little sizzle.
How long is this tape again?
It's a C-15.
We might get through the whole recipe.
It'd be kind of a bummer if we only got halfway through it.
Tony Polito's at home.
He has his notebook open.
And then it's like
he talks about dicing something.
Dice the what?
That was it.
All right. You had a pinch of. Talks about dicing something. Dice the what? Dice the what? That was it. The what? Holger Adam with a...
All right, well, here's the...
You had a pinch of...
A pinch of what?
The first Sick Sick Recipes tape from the Kitchen Tape series.
Holger Adam pasta sauce.
What do you guys call red sauce?
Do you just call it...
Marinara.
Marinara.
Marinara, like you say the whole thing.
Like, pass me a little marinara.
I need a little more marinara on my pasta. You say the whole thing. Pass me a little marinara. I need a little more marinara.
You could just say sauce.
I already put the right amount on there.
I never need it passed to me.
Oh, okay.
Alright, the red one.
For Tony Bellino's
duck bell sausages. Good evening and welcome to the first edition of SIG SIG Recipes, a kitchen tape series.
I'm Holger, I'm cooking for Phantom Limbo Shows and I'm honored to present the first recipe to you,
a simple recipe for red pasta sauce.
And it goes like this.
You need two cans of chopped tomatoes. You need one pack
of pasted tomatoes. You need an onion. You need a small spoon of honey. You need two or three
cloves of garlic. You need red and black pepper, salt, olive oil, and a mix of Italian style spices
like timpani, oregano, mayoam, Rosemary and Basil. And most important
you need a bottle of red wine, most of it to drink and some of it to cook.
Okay, start cooking by slicing the onions and garlic into tiny pieces and heat olive
oil in a pan that is big enough for all the ingredients.
When the olive oil is hot, you just put the onions and the garlic into the olive oil and start roasting both.
Make sure that the garlic doesn't get burned, because when garlic gets burned, it turns bitter.
Alright, when you got your onions and your garlic roasting then deglaze both with the
red wine add the honey salt and pepper and just let it all reduce a little more until most of the
liquid from the red wine is gone and then you add the chopped tomatoes and the pasted tomatoes to it and you more or less
are finished with the whole sauce.
Only thing you have to do now is add the Italian spices and make sure that the sauce is tasty. If you want it a little more hot, then you can also add chili peppers to it.
Or you can add more red or black pepper to it.
Yeah.
And if you've done all this and you let it boil another 10 minutes. Then you're left with a decent red pasta sauce.
That's it. Enjoy your meal. guitar solo Bye. Is that a little spoon?
That was like a little, you know, on a plate maybe or something?
I thought maybe it was like the clink of wine glasses together.
Like two people were eating, they were cooking together.
That was amazing.
It's like a soft focus of a fire behind.
Holger Adam
from the Six Sick Recipes,
a kitchen tape series,
Pasta Sauce, the red one.
That was probably the best tape we've ever played on Tabs Up.
Oh, they're numbered. This is 35 out of 35.
Nice.
Got the last one.
Yeah, that was a fun time.
Do more of those.
I don't know what the second one was,
but he did do another one.
If anybody wants to cook that up and send us a bag.
Yeah.
Just when they ask if anything's perishable
at the post office, say yes.
It's pasta sauce.
Then they're going to say there's a form,
red, white, and you're going to check red.
Then mail us a baggie of it.
Is it considered liquid?
Is it sauce liquid?
It's not a solid.
It's definitely not a solid.
It's not a gas.
Very good.
Good job, dude.
I love the intro and outro music.
Oh, it was amazing.
Yeah.
I like it when we were listening to it,
you were saying,
I can imagine the credits rolling up.
They're wiping down the countertop.
And talking to the cameraman and stuff.
Just laughing.
Or the guest, if there's a guest.
Yeah, the special guest.
Celebrity guest.
A lot of touching the shoulder.
Yeah.
All right, Dave,
what do you think they're talking about when they do that?
They're not talking about anything, they're just faking.
That would be a good
compilation
of just what
they're saying when the credits are
rolling and the music's up. I'd watch that.
I bet there's already a compilation on YouTube
of that. You think so?
Yeah, definitely. Those are your drums?
That one's so good.
Oh, the David Letterman thing?
David Letterman.
Oh, yeah.
If anyone doesn't get the reference there,
Google David Letterman or those are your drums
and watch that video because it is, it's art.
Yeah, it's so good.
Yeah, it's amazing.
I like the Casey Kasem one.
What, when he's all upset about it? When he's, when he's like,
all upset about it.
We'll play a goddamn upbeat record
and then you want me to go into this dog
when he's talking about like this dog
that's dead or whatever.
Oh yeah,
so it's dog dad or whatever.
Yeah,
look that up too.
I got a Casey Kasem dead dog.
All right,
Dave,
what tape have you got?
Oh,
I don't know.
What do I want to play?
How about,
what's this Moorish tape here?
Different lands?
Card says moops.
Card says moops.
Oh, I know what that is.
Keep that for later, though.
Keep that for later?
What do you got?
I'm just saying.
I got this tape by this group called Posture.
Joby, hand that over to Joe.
Get a good look at it. Let me see this. Lay your eyeballs that over to Joe. Get your eyeballs on this.
Lay your eyeballs all over this one.
Some mixed media going on there.
Who is Posture? Do we know?
No, I think they're from Austin.
Houston.
Houston, okay.
It looks like the...
What is this, glued?
Yeah. The label on the tape...... What is this, glued? Yeah.
The label on the tape...
This is handwritten text on the side.
Son of a bitch.
Feel the label on the shell.
It's like they dumpstered the labels for the tape.
And the artwork is just a little bit like...
Get this out of here.
It's a little bit like crayon.
Joe, you're breaking out.
Is this like an ace bandage glued to the front? Yes, it's a little bit like crayon. Is this like
an ace bandage glued to the front?
Yes, it's a medical tape.
And then another piece of paper...
Another piece of paper
taped inside.

I like political humor.

I get it.
Oh, you get it?
Okay.
All right.
Well, let's play something off of this.
Posture, self-titled cassette with some medical tape on the front.
I hope that's not used medical tape.
Oh, it's used.
There's SARS all over that.
Oh, I thought I smelled bird flu in here.
All right.
On that's cool records.
Do you think it's that's cool?
Like they're saying like, oh, that's cool.
Or does somebody like, oh, man, I spilled beer all over your mom's, you know, nice new couch.
And they go, that's cool.
No, it's like that. It's the second one. But that's cool. It's the nonchal new couch. That's cool. It's the second one.
It's the nonchalant one.

Copyright 2013, Christmas time.
All right, me's up.
There is another new label that sent us some tapes.
A new label? Another new label that sent us some tapes. A new label?
Another new label that I'm very excited about because I like their fresh start.
Two fresh starts. Brian, who does the blog review site, Guide Me Little Tape,
he has started a label called Horror Fiction.
The first two tapes by...
I like hard horror fiction.
Yeah.
By Kroika, and this band I'm going to play,
Beard Closet.
Because it's a closet for beards.
It's where you keep your beards.
At night.
What's cool about this label is that,
first of all, I like the logo a lot.
Yeah, I like that.
Because it's like a skull slash F.
The skull stands for horror
and the F stands for fiction.
I see what they did there.
I also like how all the covers are pages
from books
with image and information
printed on top of it.
If you take that out,
each J card is going to be
a page from a book.
It's a page from a book.
Oh, nice.
And on the website for this label, it says what book it's from for each release.
Oh, that's awesome.
So they run these through the printer?
Yeah.
Hmm.
Yeah, and they look really nice.
It's giving a good smell.
I noticed the smell right away.
Oh, I love that smell.
It's like tobacco.
I love the smell of an old book.
Yeah, exactly.
Yeah.
Let me see that one.
That's what it smells like.
Oh, that's awesome.
That's what it smells like.
Dave, get your hands off it.
Oh, you know what would have been amazing?
It probably already smells like Dave's hands.
You know what would have been amazing?
What's that?
Guys, get on this.
You see how it has the page number at the bottom?
Uh-huh.
They should go through the book that it's for and go through one through whatever the
edition is and then go page one and then put a dash and put out the number of you just blew my mind that's
amazing it's pretty good do that for the next one that'd be really that would be really awesome
now i'm not sure because does this tape here the krakowi have the page number at the bottom
no it didn't it didn't no it does well it's at the top it's somewhere on there
use the page number to number
well here's the problem though
you have page 1 and on the other side is page 2
so you can't
if you use page 1 for
1 out of 35
well there's no page on this one
what are you talking about
I mean
I'm not seeing a page number on the other side.
Either way, figure it out.
We're the ideas, man.
I'm not doing this.
You do it.
It's weird that it's not on there.
These tapes just came out
in editions of 35.
They're both really good.
I think it was right by the two.
Oh, okay.
We'll see if they went over it.
What's cool also is I guess when it goes through the printer,
it gets fucked up on the print side, the text.
This is legible, fully legible on the back.
Uh-huh, the text on the book.
On the front, it gets all fucked up, and that might be from,
like, see that?
It's like a line. Maybe that's where the roller is or something, because even Dave it gets all fucked up. It's like a line.
Maybe that's where the roller is or something.
Because even Dave's is all fucked up.
This is cool.
It's an awesome aesthetic.
Both artists, the tapes are really awesome.
This wouldn't have made past my QC.
That's quality control.
It's just their white tapes with the names of the artists stamped on there.
It's not the best, but I think
it goes well with the whole thing.
Speaking of horror fiction, did you
hear that Scary Stories to Tell in the
Dark series? Do you remember those books when you were a kid?
Goosebumps? No, Scary Stories to Tell
in the Dark. They were the books with the really fucked up
illustrations on them. You don't remember these?
I played outside.
Okay. Well, first of all, before you go on, Dave, noave no you didn't go ahead they're doing reissues of the books but
they're doing different illustrations they got a different illustrator and they're terrible they're
horrible yeah the old illustrations are like really fucked up yeah joe be looking like like
really like uh you know yeah yeah yeah remember those. They'll spook you.
The old ones spook you. That's still fucked up looking, right?
That's scary as shit looking.
No, it's real scary.
The new ones are like how they redid My Little Pony,
and before they were like these little ponies,
and now they're almost people.
I know you keep saying that,
and we've had a discussion about it before,
but that's just one film where they go into an alternate reality
where they are people. I'm not. They are people.
I'm not talking about that.
I'm talking about before that film, the ponies, if you really look at them, they hardly look like ponies.
They no means look like people.
They look more like people than ponies.
You give me a person, you give me a pony.
And then you give me a My Little Pony.
And I will, on the spectrum, they'll be closer to the person.
Nope.
Fuck you. I can't weigh in. I don'll be closer to the person. Nope. Fuck you.
I can't weigh in.
I don't know what you guys are talking about.
All right.
I'll sing this.
My little pony, my little pony.
Ah, my little pony.
Horror fiction number two, Beard Closet.
The tape's called Missions.
Don't you know you are my very best friend?
Here's something. A little chunk from best friend. Here's something.
A little chunk from the middle.
Here it is. Thank you. I'm sorry. The End © BF-WATCH TV 2021 Thank you. © BF-WATCH TV 2021 I love you. © BF-WATCH TV 2021 Thank you. Thank you. guitar solo Thank you. Beard Closet Missions Cassette
on new label Horror Fiction.
That was tight.
Yeah, man.
I wasn't expecting to get it all heavy
like that unexpected well guess what guess what happened it did there was some shredding
you can order those now but be quick because he only made 35 and they're pretty tight b what do you got? Let's play... Okay. Oh, all right.
A, let's play this.
Put this on.
A, you.
A kid.
A kid.
A kid.
A you kid.
Oh, this is nice.
I see what they did here.
Let's play something from this gated tape that we just got in from... What label is this?
Well, let's take a look.
It might be self-released.
I think it's self-released.
Oh, three.
Let's see what they did here.
They sent us three stickers.
Oh, look at that.
Did you see that?
There you go, Dave.
Just one tape,
but I guess I can let that slide.
Yeah.
Gated with a triangle.
Well, I like how on the inside
of the J card,
it's got a little collage
thing going on the outside. Is that
Marilyn Monroe? Somebody
flying, dumping little... What's the one that looks like Marilyn Monroe?
Jane Masters?
It's somebody flying, dumping some pink stuff out.
And then it's stamped.
It's stamped on the inside. But here's my question.
On the back, there's a spot for
where it's numbered. You fellas
are familiar with the numbering process, correct?
I'm familiar with the numbering process.
It's a blank slash, then the number, and then you write in.
Give me an example.
Both of you give me an example of what would be before the slash.
One.
One out of 50.
Dave, what do you got?
Six.
Six out of 50.
Look at this one.
33.
NC.
NC out of 50.
What's that mean?
I'll tell you what that means.
Promotional copy.
Yes.
Not calculated.
This is not part of the edition.
So what's NC stand for?
This is like a radio copy.
So what does NC stand for?
Not counted.
Not counted.
Not counted.
So there's extra that aren't like promo ones?
Promo ones.
That are just... Like cutouts. Well, then it's not out of 50. It's 51 and aren't promo ones. They're promo ones.
They're cutouts.
Well, then it's not out of 50.
It's 51, and then there's that.
But this isn't part of the edition.
Well, what's different from... Oh, I like the color of this tape.
The difference? NC.
NC.
I don't like the NC.
I like it.
I like this baby blue shell.
I like it, too.
That is...
Oh, look at that big bold A on that.
I know.
There's two stickers. Rub big bold A on that. I know. There's two stickers.
Rub your finger pad on that.
On each side there's two
really thick, bold
an A and a B sticker.
Are they stickers? No, that's screen printing.
That's screen printing? I thought it was a sticker.
You're wrong. They really laid the ink on that.
Your mom had me lay the ink on this.
Enough about my mom.
Mrs. Haley's a saint. I don't know if this. Enough about my mom. All right. Mrs. Haley's a saint.
I don't know if this is screen printed, though.
Oh, shit.
Joke gets it wrong again.
What do you know?
If you look around the very edges, the very edges of the letters are raised up just slightly.
But the insides of the letters are, too.
Can you do that with screen printing?
Yeah, that happens because the pigment's too thick.
I'll be the judge.
Pass it over.
But all the way around the edges like that?
Like when it pulls up.
Okay, I see what you're saying.
Yeah, that's screen printing.
But it looks really
consistent
all the way around. That's why it
threw me off, I guess.
I was in the industry, Dave.
Yes, you were. No, I'm pretty sure
I'm not 100%. Mike, Dave. Yes, you were. No, I'm pretty short-streamed. I'm not 100%.
Mike, pick at that a little bit.
I was already picking at it when you fellas were.
You were doing a whole thing where you were talking,
I zoned you out, and I started picking.
Oh, this came off.
It came off.
No, he just wiped right off.
We have gotten some of those before.
Gated, dust and loops.
Self-released, right?
I believe it's self-released.
Here's the first track off the A-side.
Yeah, just hitting the road,
popping in a bitchin' ass mixtape
and just being free. Thank you. Thank you.

My God, my won't go anymore. No good. It's pretty good. No good. There's an Arrested Development sample later on in there.
Oh, yeah?
Yeah, and then I've never seen the show, but I was told...
Arrested Development?
No, no, no.
End that sentence, start a new one.
And I'd never seen this show, but I was told that there's also an Orange is the New Black sample on it.
Oh, yeah?
Who told you that?
Liz.
Oh, you haven't watched that show?
No.
I only watched a couple episodes.
It's pretty good.
Is it good? Yeah. I might get a couple episodes it's pretty good is it good
yeah
I might get into it
it's good
I'm going through
oddities right now
I like oddities
I love oddities actually
I'm enjoying oddities
yeah
I want to own a store like that
oh okay
I know what you're talking about
the store
pawn shop
weird stuff
I like shows where
there's stores
and there's fake sales going on
yeah
like people always come in
with something
everyone's always got
the craziest thing
and it's like
do you even know what you have right now?
This is
Batman's toe.
It's not like Pawn Stars.
But they're obviously fake.
The fake haggling. I love fake haggling.
I hate the title of Pawn Stars.
Pawn Stars?
Because it's like a pawn.
Well, then there's the other one that's called Hardcore Pawn.
Are you serious?
Storage boards. You have one of the first airplanes ever flown Well, then there's the other one that's called Hardcore Pawn. Are you serious? Yeah. Oh, Jesus Christ.
Storage boards.
You have one of the first airplanes ever flown by the Wright brothers that didn't crash.
Yeah, all that shit.
I love that shit, though.
Yeah, it's pretty good.
I love that shit.
It's worth $4 billion.
$4 billion.
I've always wanted to buy a storage unit, too.
Like, do that.
Oh, I really want to buy a storage unit. But you've got to go with a couple thousand dollars, man.
Cash. Cash money. I guess it depends on where you get. You've got to go with a couple thousand dollars. Cash money.
Around here, would you need that kind of cash?
You need a thousand bucks.
I want to do it just so I have a signature
like, yep!
Or like, gimme it!
Gimme it!
Giddy up!
I love how it's always the same four people.
Only the four people that are involved in the show
are actually bidding on the thing. Well, they edit out the other people. Nah, I don't like that. I love how it's always the same four people. Only the four people that are involved in the show are actually bidding
on the thing.
Well, they edit out
the other people.
Nah, I don't like that.
I'm sure that's a small
subculture.
And they all end up
at the same one
all the time.
Just these four random people,
they all end up
at the same one
all the time.
The faker the interaction,
the more I like it.
The more you like it?
Yeah.
And I love the bad,
like, you know,
I couldn't let this go
for less than $800.
I was thinking more like $200.
I could do $750.
How about $300?
And then they eventually
meet somewhere like $5
and they're both happy.
Yeah.
I love it.
I love it.
All right, Dave,
what do you got?
Let's play the split tape.
It's actually a split slash collab tape between Der Einzig and Harshcore.
Oh, I love these cases.
Yeah, these are like the mini.
Yeah, these are nice.
It looks like a mini DVD case, but it's actually not.
It's for a cassette.
It's for cassettes.
Like a vinyl case that you would normally see a double or triple cassette in,
but it's just for one tape.
Like the clamshell
of these. Like the Disney tape.
Yeah, like a Disney VHS,
but for one cassette. And black.
I love the black ones.
For some reason, this reminds me of some sort of
horror bootleg
Yeah
Like you'd be like at
A weird
You know
Video American
On some weird
European format
Yeah
Cause it's real small
I don't have one of these
Yeah
What am I gonna play that in
Alright
That's pretty good
And this is
The label
Old bicycle
It's a
Swiss
Label
Swiss
Like the cheese
Yeah
Swiss cheese I love What are you doing the cheese. Yeah, Swiss cheese.
I love me some Swiss cheese.
Oh, I see what they did there.
It's double-sided.
Why would they put the printing on the inside of the cover?
I don't know.
So you have the piece of paper that goes...
This is a literature well right here.
That's the literature well.
Like on the inside, there's a little spot to put something.
Yeah, that's where you put the literature.
So the cover, which slides behind the piece of plastic on the front,
has printing on both sides.
Yeah, but...
Let me ask you this.
Did it stick to the case?
It always does.
That's the problem.
That's what I was asking.
I haven't been able to get it out yet,
so I don't know what it says on there.
If your humidity level is above 8.9%
and you're using oil-based inks,
you're going to get stickage.
That's just tape knowledge 101.
I'm pretty sure that it's just a trackless
that's on the back.
But, like, I mean, look.
It's so stuck that it's pulling ink off the page.
So don't do that anymore.
Yeah, it's bad.
See all the white?
Oh, I see that.
Well, if it's just info, I'll...
Bad form.
I'll discogs that. No, that's nice. It's still nice, though. Yeah. You said it white? Oh, I see that. Well, if it's just info, I'll... Bad form. I'll discogs that.
No, that's nice.
It's still nice, though.
Yeah.
Yeah.
You said it's just the track list?
Ooh, Mike, I think it's got eaten a little bit.
Or maybe it's just because...
Yeah, mice in your house.
All right, so what are you playing?
What did you ask me?
It's just the track list on the inside?
I think so, yeah.
You can scogs that.
As far as I could see down, that's what it...
You can just scogs that. What's scogs?
I'm glad you know.
Oh, you know what? I just decided to start
calling Discogs scogs.
Oh, you call it scogs? You can scogs
that. I just noticed that.
Discogs is already like a
shortened for discography.
Well, discogs.com
is the website. I understand that, but
you're shortening. I'm shortening that to scogs. You can discogs.com is the website. I understand that, but like discogs. You're shortening.
I'm shortening that to scogs.
You're shortening that.
Check scogs.
Go ahead and check scogs for that.
Well, I was going to say.
What were you going to say?
It says on the corner here.
What was he going to say in the beginning of the show that he never said?
Don't worry about that.
It says see Overleaf for track titles and details. So there's some details in here details in here too that we're missing maybe the deets are on the scogs i call them tails
all right well what are you playing from this uh i'm gonna play a track from der ein siege
that's on the a side um there's tracks that are by harsh core and then by der ein siege and then
there's like collaboration tracks.
And this is another tape that says Dürer Einzige and Harshcore
or Harshcore featuring Dürer Einzige.
Oh, weird.
All right, well, here's something from Dürer Einzige
from the split slash collaboration with Harshcore
on Old Bicycle Records from 2012.
Oh, they do their numbering.
It says tape crash number five.
That's their numbering.
Oh, that's their thing, okay.
Tape crash number five.
Here it is. Thank you. so Thank you. I'm sorry. Thank you. I don't know. Thank you. so so so
so Thank you. so Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. © transcript Emily Beynon Thank you. Thank you. ¶¶ Thank you. Thank you. You want it?
Der Einzige.
I just like doing that.
No, no, here.
What are you doing over there, Joe?
There's this weird, like, typeset thing.
Oh, I like that.
Yeah, it's a linotype.
It's a linotype thing.
It's like a Masonic star thing.
But it has this little groove on it.
And if you balance it just right,
that gets the greatest feeling ever.
But a little bit more.
I like to see if I can do it in one motion.
Just put it down and have it happen.
I'm with you there.
That's nice.
It's pretty good.
That Reinsing.
Or however you say it.
Good shit, man.
That Reinsing!
That's exactly what you said.
You have to scream it.
With anger.
All right, me turn.
It's like your only German reference.
Hogan's Heroes. Not just Hogan's Heroes,
but the Hogan.
Alright, I'm going to play
something. Is that a Hogan's Heroes reference?
I thought it was like some wrestling thing.
No, no, no.
Like Hacksaw Jim Duggan, right?
Hogan!
Colonel Clink.
Colonel Clink says when he's mad at Hogan
doing his antics.
Yeah.
Oh, God!
I've never seen that show.
You've never seen Hogan's show?
It's really good.
It's really good.
They should remake it.
Really brought some funnies to World War II.
Oh, yeah.
Oh, it's a World War II type base.
They're in a captured...
They're in a prisoner of war camp. Yeah, POW camp. But they're staying base. They're in a captured POW camp.
They could get out if they wanted to
because they have underground tunnels.
But they're staying there to collect information
or maybe just to goof.
It really makes you wonder
how bad is a prisoner of war camp
if they're staying around.
You get John McCain.
Whatever, you had tunnels.
You know how much I would love to have a bat cave experience? I'd love to. around. You get John McCain and you're like, whatever, you had tunnels.
You know how much I would love to have a bat cave experience?
I'd love to.
I'm going to play something new on the Centipede Farm.
Taped by...
I would hate to work there.
Where, the Centipede Farm?
The Centipede Farm is gross.
You've got to milk them every day
at 2 o'clock in the afternoon.
That's when they're at their prime.
That's when they're bulging at the tips.
They're frothing at the ends.
This is a tape from Roadside Picnic called Magpies and Lies.
Do you guys remember a band called...
Deadeye Dick?
Roadside Monument?
No.
A little bit.
They were like an old hardcore band. And for the longest time... I've seen this name before, Roadside Monument? No. A little bit. They were like an old hardcore band.
And for the longest time, I've seen this name before, Roadside Picnic.
And I just couldn't get out of my head that this was going to be a mid-90s emo band.
It's not, though.
It's not?
It's not.
I think Roadside Monument had a split with Frodo.
I had the Frodo flexi.
Oh, yeah? I miss the boat on all that shit. Don with Frodus. I had the Frodus Flexi. Oh, yeah.
I miss the boat on all that shit.
Don't care about it.
I don't care.
Whatever, Dave.
You were probably listening to Mr. Bungle.
You're probably right.
I hate how sloppy it's written.
Everything's written on here.
I don't know.
It took way out.
Roadside's picnic.
What I hate about it, too.
Let me tell you what I really hate about it.
Just grab that right out of my hand.
Is the, like, when you write with a Sharpie or whatever,
the point where it's really dark where they started the letter format.
Yeah, and just, like, bubble up.
And it's very defined.
Like, look at the numbering.
It's, like, numbered.
Okay, I got it.
L.
All right, got it.
I think it's numbered 18 out of 40, but who knows?
It's so thick.
It's really on there.
It's like cake frosting.
Don't rip it off.
Don't rip it off.
You make a cake.
You make a cake.
All right.
But it's a really good tape.
So play something off of here, off of the A side.
How do you have a cover this nice?
It's pretty nice.
Someone took time to design this.
Yeah. And then you write it on a silver goddamn fucking sharpie.
Yeah, you gotta get some labels or something. Labels!
Anything. Or nothing.
Or nothing. I'd rather it be nothing. I'd rather it be
fucking nothing. Because you look on the blank because it's like a nice
clear blue shell. It's nice.
And on one side there's nothing and it's like, oh, this is pretty nice.
Then you turn it over.
And you get poop and diarrhea.
And a silver goddamn sharpie. I'm not gonna sweat it because it's a good tape. And like you said, the cover's pretty awesome. then you turn it over and you get poop and diarrhea. Hand-numbered silver
goddamn sharpie.
I'm not going to sweat it because it's a good tape.
Like you said, the cover is pretty awesome.
I was very pleasantly surprised.
This project, it's a guy named
Justin Wiggin.
Have we ever played anything by a project
called The Transplant Mountains?
Yes.
I think he also does that.
I think you played the that. That name...
I think you played the tape.
Did they have something on House of Alchemy?
I don't think it was House of Alchemy.
I don't remember.
This tape came out last month.
It's a C-68.
Play something off the middle of the A-side.
So here is Roadside Picnic
off the Magpies and Lies C-68 on the Centipede Farm.
Milk them at two.
Maybe that's centipede milk
on, maybe that's not Sharpie.
Mmm.
Mmm. Thank you. © BF-WATCH TV 2021 Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. roadside picnic i'd like to have a roadside picnic roadside who wouldn't why not why not
because like cars are going by no i'm talking about an old country road. Well, I was thinking more like I-95.
Like on the shoulder?
Yeah.
On the shoulder in 95.
Just get out.
Put on your flashers.
When it's sleeting.
When it's sleeting.
Put down a nice blanket.
Yeah.
Ants ain't going to get you out there.
No.
No.
Put down a nice thin sheet.
Lay down on the sleety road.
A nice plastic, like an old, the liner on the inside of the shower curtain.
I don't like wine, but I'd bring one.
I'd bring a nice wine.
Oh, red.
We'll make the sauce from the sick, sick tape.
We'll just eat sauce and wine.
Sauce and wine.
Traditionally,
you go with the white.
Or a rosé.
Are we going to do it around here?
Are we going to go on a road trip?
Let's go up north in the winter.
Go to Maine.
Maine on 95?
Does 95 go all the way to Maine?
I think so.
She goes all the way up, Dave.
Except when you get into Canada
and they just flip the numbers.
You want to do north or south?
You can go all the way up to North Pole.
No, not south. I don't want to go south.
Eat Santa Claus.
We can drive up north and then come back.
Then come back a little bit on the other side of the road.
Have a nice
I-95 shoulder sauce picnic.
You ever have shoulder sauce?
It's delicious.
The way my grandma makes it.
You sop up a little sleet with a nice piece of baguette.
Dip it in the sauce.
Cassette on the Centipede Farm came out recently.
This year.
Sometime this year.
Sometime this year.
All right, Joby, what do you got?
Let's play the first two tracks On the A side
I think it's going to have to be
Rewound
Little Buffalo
Old Buffalo Drone and Little Buffalo
Yeah
On what tape is this?
I don't know how to say this name
Give it a shot
Surprise surprise
N-H-O-C-H-T
Oh wait
I think here's your problem right here
This is why your
Wasn't working It's You're saying N-H-O-C-H-T Oh wait, I think here's your problem right here This is why your Google sign wasn't working
You're saying N-H?
Yeah
It's N-O-C-H-T
They put N-H on the spine
They misspelled it on the spine
And then they just went with it
Misspelled it on the spine and it was like
Whatever
I thought that was kind of
I wonder if it was a typo
because the H is right above the N on the key.
Is it handwritten or is it like a font?
Or can you tell?
It's a font.
So yeah, the H is right above the N
so I wonder if they really did it.
Yeah, I'm on their other
band camp and it's
N-O-C-H-T.
The spine says N-H-O-C-H-T. I think it's a no cht but the spine says nh not the only ghouls i think it's just not the only
ghoul not the only ghouls little buffalo dead horse this is his goals what are you kidding me
this says ghouls too but the spine says ghoul vord word that's the label who released this cassette
joe you should love this tape it's's so hard to Google. You did.
I Googled it and two things came up.
One thing was for the word only.
Either you did a piss poor job on this J card or you're pulling some sort of goof.
We like goofs.
I love a good goof.
I love a good goof. I love a good, like a cup that dribbles.
I'll get you on that.
I'll get you on Thanksgiving.
I'll get you on that one.
Cup that dribbles.
I mean, I got to say.
Nice little whoopee cushion.
I also don't understand.
Oh, go, go, go.
For like a fart of a job you did, like misspelling everything on like,
is there an exclamation point that's the number one like it did it get that bad i hope they got their friend to do it they're like
you get that art done yet and he just like he's like on his phone doing something they're like
the name spelled n o uh-huh i got it i got it i got it n n letters yeah i got it got it um for
the fart of a job that was done on that with the spine and stuff,
the labels on this tape are like full color.
And like, first of all,
they have nothing to do with Yacht Rock on the J card.
This is absolutely nothing.
They have nothing to do with each other.
No.
But like, they look pretty nice for a...
But I also don't understand because one side's called Little Buffalo.
Let me see that.
One side's called Dead Horse.
So it's like two EPs separate.
Well, it's Little Buffalo, Dead Horse.
I think it's the name of both of them, right?
No, no.
One side is the Dead Horse side.
Oh.
One side is the Little Buffalo side.
You know what?
I don't think we should even try to figure it out.
Yeah. I think let's chalk it up think we should even try to figure it out. Just figure it out.
I think let's chalk it up to it being a little bit of a goof.
It's all very, very confusing.
Just goofing.
Just goofing.
That should be a meme.
Just goofing?
Everything's a meme.
Everything?
You can find a meme for anything.
I think, but just goofing like, and it's a picture of Scottie Pippen.
Wait, did you guys notice?
Did you guys notice?
That's one. What do we do on the artwork here where the band-aid gets cut out where the
buffalo is like the the space the negative space of the band-aid is part of the buffalo's body on
the artwork and the buffalo has its legs crossed on the artwork wait a minute you might have just
blew everything up that wasn't done on purpose. Let me see.
There's no way they did that on purpose.
There's an image of a buffalo.
And it just happens that where the band-aid's cut out is the tip of his head and the tip of his butt.
And the one spool is his face and the other spool is his butthole.
I think they had to do that on purpose.
They put it right in the middle of the article, right there.
They couldn't spell the fucking band name right.
Well, maybe they did the J-Cards and their friend did this.
Okay, we're almost there.
We're almost there. I just gotta do a little
tweaking to make the buffalo head right.
I think they outsourced the J-Card
and they did the tape labels
themselves. They did one of them themselves
and then they got somebody else to do the other one.
While we figure that out,
you want to play two cuts?
Two cuts.
Two strips of bacon from either
Knock the Only Ghoul
or Knock the Only Ghouls
or Knock the Only Ghouls
or whatever it is.
Tape on Vordward. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. I'm going to go ahead and get back to the car. Thank you. I'm going to go. Joe's leaning over. What are you doing down there, Joe?
Oh!
I dropped some quarters.
Face me.
I got you.
You faced me.
Just put the quarters on the table and leave them there.
I like to mess with them.
I love to mess with shit.
It's similar to you, but at the end of the day, it's still a quarter.
I'm not dealing with it.
Give me those.
I'll have them in the slugs in a minute.
I'm all grinding down to nothing.
It's not a pile of napkin
balled up.
Looks like a train ran it over.
Not the only ghouls.
The only thing, maybe after I'm messing with them,
they might be a little shinier.
Dead horse on board word.
Alright, Dave, you're up.
Okay.
Okay.
Fuck you.
I'm going to play this
On
This is a project
From this person from Paris, France
Paris, France
Comes from Serbia
Lives in Paris, France
If I was in Serbia I'd go to Paris, France too
Not hang around Serbia
Fuck Serbia
I'm going to Paris, France Either too. I'm hanging around Serbia. Serbia. Fuck Serbia. Yeah, I'm going to Paris, France.
Either that or New York City.
Moving on up.
Have you guys heard...
Did you know that there's a mock Paris, France in China
where they made a replica of Paris
to try to attract tourism,
and it's just a total failure?
I have heard that.
They have a whole Eiffel Tower, right?
Yeah, yeah. How is it a total failure? Nobody have heard that. They have like a whole Eiffel Tower, right? Yeah, yeah.
How is it a total failure?
Nobody goes.
No one came.
Maybe that's what they wanted.
It's like Euro Disney.
No one came.
Oh, well.
What are you going to do?
I guess nothing.
Nothing.
It's going to fall into disrepair.
We could go.
I'll go.
I'll go to China right now.
Yeah, what am I doing?
We won't go to Paris.
We'll go to the fake one. It's probably further? We won't go to Paris. We'll go to the fake one.
It's probably further away.
Two birds, one stone. Paris. China.
Knock it out.
I'm going to get some sneakers. Cheap.
I've been looking for some cheap sneaks.
I got just the link for you, Joe.
This is another one on
Sunshine Limited.
I played that Gareth Flowers tape last time around.
This was in the same batch, I believe.
Who's this?
Well, like we were just saying, this is Letna.
Oh, this is Letna.
Yeah.
I kept saying, what?
David just repeated it, but he didn't really break it down.
I'm not totally sure.
Does Sunshine Limited put the lengths of the tapes on the covers every time?
I like that.
The Gared Flowers is C74.
When it says C35 or whatever, I like that it would be a capital C.
No, little C.
Little C?
Dave?
I like a little C.
I guess I'm wrong.
Little C.
All right.
Mike's stupid.
I like little C.
That's what I went to. Good burn. Tape's stupid. Little C, all right. Mike's stupid. I like Little C. That's what that went down.
Good burn.
Tape Horizont with a T at the end.
I think it's weird that that's only a thing that you see on cassettes, where you specify.
See the length.
Every once in a while, you see it on a CD or something like that, listed on the back.
Well, that's because it's like, that's how much tape is in there. Right. Well, that's because that's how much tape
is in there.
We know what it means.
You already know.
You know what a cassette is.
Cassettes?
You could get a CD that's 10 minutes long.
They have to be specified by length when you buy a blank cassette.
You need to know, is it 120 minutes? Is it 90 minutes?
Yeah, but
still, why advertise
it as being the length?
So you know how long it is.
Yeah, but like a VHS...
Why average...
VHS isn't like a VHS 138.
No, because they're all the same.
It's like on SP, it's four hours.
On SLP, it's six hours or whatever it is.
All right, Mr. Technical Brain.
Why specify when you're buying vinyl if it's six hours or whatever it is. Why specify
when you're buying vinyl if it's seven inches or ten
inches or twelve inches? Do you have friends in high school, Dave?
I do not have any friends in high school.
You're bringing that up now!
Don't you ever!
I might have had one or two. I had a lot.
Ever bring that up to me!
No, you didn't. No, I had some.
You had Polish Paul because he was an immigrant
and he didn't have any other friends.
So he was just friends with you and your dad.
And that's it.
He had an arcade, man.
Fuck you.
Whatever.
I had like two or three friends.
Yeah?
Yeah, I wasn't popular with kids.
Two or three friends.
You know, if you only had two or three friends, you know exactly what it was.
It was either two or three.
You were like, well, there was Jim, Bill, maybe there was Greg.
There was one guy that he really didn't
like, but no one else liked him either.
Yeah.
He's like, you know.
We all got one of those. I got one
now.
I mean, I...
I got one now that I'm stuck with.
Let me ask you a question. Is that screw,
the bottom screw, is that really set
deep in the shell?
Or am I just being, is it just getting late?
No, that's pretty deep.
So deep that it puts 35 minutes of the analog tape to sleep.
All right, well, let's play a little bit from the Letna Horizont cassette. You got me good.
Sunshine Limited. here it is Thank you. I'm going to go back to the Thank you. Thank you. I'm sorry. Thank you. I'm you. Thank you. so
um Thank you. Letna.
That was good.
Yeah, man, that was tight.
I'm really glad that Sunshine Limited...
Is a label.
Is a label.
They sent us a package like two batches ago or something like that.
And, you know,
a lot of labels get lost
in the sauce
and you never find them.
But I'm sure glad
we found you fellas.
Well, they found us, right?
Oh, they found us.
Yeah.
Either way,
really good label
and I'm really liking
what we're getting from them.
Quarters mostly.
Yeah, quarters mostly.
All right.
I'm going to play this.
We got this in the mail
a while ago.
I like that cover.
I only got a glimpse of this.
You only got a little twinkle?
The Rainbow Body
Free Sentient Beings tape
on a label called
Ginjoa.
Who's the Rainbow Body?
I don't really know
Didn't they have something in the newer
In what?
Newer what?
Drunk-O-Lady?
Yeah, they did
Matt Catman

I'm sure he got that all.
Hey, Catman.
Yell me out.
Hey, you got a little box?
The Goober and the Catman.
What are you doing at the urinal?
Yo, this is the Goober and the Catman.
Yo, 96.5.
There's always one guy that has cancer.
Everything that rocks. Catman's the midnight guy, though. He's on the prowl. That's the midnight guy that has cancer. He's like the midnight dude.
Catman's the midnight guy, though.
He's on the prowl.
He's on the hunt.
Catman here.
Careful, he'll scratch.
It's the Catman.
And then it's like,
Hey, everybody out there,
this is the Catman.
Coming up, we got the rainbow body of his Noosa cassette on.
Enjoy.
All right, hand it back.
Does it say who did the artwork?
Because it's really good artwork.
Damn it.
No.
Okay.
Hand it over to me.
Thanks, Dave.
You know, it's layers of yellow and orange.
I wish you could see it.
A little pyramid on top.
It's very fancy.
I'm really liking this.
Got some texture to it.
Yeah, it's definitely got some texture to it.
Not physical.
Play Free Santee Means No. 1, first track on the A side.
Get into this.
Here it is, the rainbow body. And I was just going to say, I'm going to on the A side. Here it is.
The Rainbow Body.
I was just going to say, I'm going to look it up and see who this is.
Oh, we know. We figured it out because we had a whole bit that we did on it.
Mad Catman.
We figured it out.
We don't know who did the artwork.
I'm going to try to figure that out.
I'm going to get to the bottom of it.
The Rainbow Body. body. Thank you. Thank you. so
so Thank you. © BF-WATCH TV 2021 The Rainbow Body

Off of Failed Recordings number 12.
This is really good.
I really like the font.
I'm sorry.
I thought you were handing me the tape that I should have touched.
Before we completely move on, what's the Catman's theme song?
I'm thinking like Keep on Rockin' in the Free World.
Just the riff looped over and over again.
Yeah, that'll work.
That'll work.
I'll sing something a little bit more like
you know, you see,
it probably used to be that.
But now it's like a corn cut.
Yeah, that's probably true.
No, it's just that looped over and over again.
Remember Disturbed?
Yeah.
I don't, but...
The worst thingbed? Yeah. Ugh. I don't, but... Ugh. Wah, wah.
Ugh.
The worst thing ever.
Yeah.
Eh, ever.
Yeah, it's pretty bad.
I think racism is worse.
As a musical style...
We're talking about musical stylings.
Racist music.
Racist music, you think, is worse.
Like...
Yeah.
But the first Screwdriver record is good.
Well, not all their shit is racist.
Yeah, that was before they were a racist band, man.
All right, Dave, what do you got?
That's not good.
That's just the argument that some people have told me before.
You're playing the millipede, Dave, right?
Yeah.
Let's go with screwdriver real quick.
Screwdriver record's pretty good.
No, it's not.
It's just not racist.
Chris does that all the time.
Yeah.
It's just not racist.
We all know someone who does that.
Oh.
It's your turn.
I like the text.
Millipede.
All right, let's play this.
Yeah, this came in the mail the other day.
It's like really overwashed guitar stuff,
kind of shoegazy.
Overwashed?
Like they washed it too much?
They washed it way too much. It's all stiff.
This looks like a
Sacred Phrases tape.
Take a good look at it.
The text on the spine,
the close-up shot on the cover.
Where's this label from?
Failed Recordings?
Sure.

To find out, go to
facebook.com slash mcdonalds.
Alright, Dave, you want to take us out?
Actually, before you take us out,
we should probably say that
coming up is going to be another themed episode.
Oh, yeah? That's coming up?
Yeah.
We do them on the fives.
I hate this.
Themes on the fives.
Themes on the fives.
Do you not want to do one?

So, just if you're a first-time listener, the themed episode, Joe, why don't you explain it?
We'll see what happens is.
Is that fans...

We turned the lights off, just so you know.
I like the monitor glare on your guys' glasses.
We're going to pick a theme based on
fan suggestions.
Right?
Yeah.
You can usually
give your submission on the Facebook page.
What you're going to do is you're going to go.
We'll post something on Facebook.
Hold on.
I'm about to get a little.
What you're going to do is you're going to post something on Facebook.
What we're going to do.
No.

Let's get a little wacky here.
Let's go on vacation with this one.
Let's get it on.
Dave, can you turn the light back on?
What, you don't like this?
I like it like this.
I kind of feel like we all should be smoking cigarettes at this lighting.
Well, if the Catman was here.
Yeah, the Catman.
The Catman.
What if the Catman just walked in?
What if the Catman just walked in?
What if you heard like, hey, where are they?
Oh shit, the Catman's here.
He would definitely wear his Hawaiian shirt.
Oh yeah.
And he definitely broadcasts from the dark.
I was thinking a black button up all the way down to the middle of the chest.
No, no, no, no, no.
It's Hawaiian.
With a medallion that he got.
Are you kidding me?
The Catman.
He's Hawaiian shirt, huh?

And it's like
It's going down at an angle
Think I'm gonna get something wild
Next time like a dream catcher
That'd be good.
I love the cat man.
I wish he was here.
All right, Dave, what are you playing?
What are you closing us out on?
Let's go out on this tape by a project called Caledonia County
that came out on Barrow Records.
Caledonia County, the Windy City.
Oh, yeah.
Barrow Records.
This is the first tape I've
ever gotten on this label before.
I've never heard of Barrow Records
before. No, I haven't either and I gotta say
this is a beautifully presented tape.
Yeah. This is... Yeah, it's really nice.
Joe, get your hands on this one. Everything
about this is nice. Even the printing
on the
stickers here.
It's got a glare to it.
There's soul glow on it.
Kevin Hine tape that I brought tonight too.
Oh, is that on Barrow too?
Yeah, same label.
The artwork's really nice.
Printing on both sides of the J-card.
They do a good job. Nice treatment.
This is Barrow 23
so they've been doing this for a little bit.
Oh, and I have to say, don't go to barrowrecords.com
because I got a Trojan warning when I went to it.
Well, don't tell people not to do it.
Maybe they want a Trojan warning.
Maybe you want a Trojan warning.
Not a Trojan, but just a Trojan warning.
That sounds like Trojan condoms.
Like they were offering you one, like warning.
I bet Joe likes that. He doesn't want the actual Trojan. He just wants the warning. That sounds like... Trojan condoms? Like the Joe offering you one? Like warning. Yeah.
Well, that's...
I bet that Joe likes that.
He doesn't want the actual Trojan.
He just wants the warning.
He likes to be warned.
He likes to feel like a virus might want him.
Yeah, I want to know about it.
And Barrow is actually an acronym
for breathing and receiving oxygen,
which I don't know what the difference is,
but...
Oh, all right.
Whatever.
Oh, it says that at the bottom here.
Yeah, I didn't know that. Where does it say it?
On the Kevin Hine tape at the bottom.
It says, Breathing and Receiving Oxygen 2013.
Is that tape pro-dubbed?
Oh, yeah. Big time. And this one, I don't know
if it's pro-dubbed or not, but it's not imprinted.
Oh. Oh, it's not. Yeah,
this one's imprinted.
What number is yours? What number is that, Kevin?
This is side two.
We'll never get to the bottom of that.
This one doesn't say.
I don't think.
All right.
It's been jamming this one a lot.
This is number 20.
Okay.
This is a good one to play when you're cleaning the house or something.
Nice ambient jams.
Nothing crazy or different, but just done really well. I like something like J's on my feet when I'm cleaning the house. J. Nice ambient jams. Nothing crazy or different,
but just done really well.
I like something like J's on my feet when I'm cleaning the house.
J's on my feet. Got jeans on my toes.
Did you peep the inside of this J card?
I did. You know I did.
It's really nice, right?
Dave, come on. Look at me in the face.
You know I did.
It's like stills from the Portlandia intro.
Oh man, the Portlandia intro is so good.
You know what? It does look like the Portlandia intro. Oh, man, the Portlandia intro is so good. You know what?
It does look like the Portlandia intro.
Who does the Portlandia theme song?
I don't know, but it's so good.
Yeah.
So good.
It's really good.
It is, yeah.
All right, well, let's close out episode number 33 with,
is it Caledonia County?
How do you say it?
Caledonia County.
Caledonia County.
The Telegraph canyon on Barrow.
And yeah, thanks to Grant and Rachel Evans for the intro.
Thanks for listening.
And here is Caledonia County.
Word to your mother.
Last word. The The The The The The Thank you. The The The The The The The The The The The The The Thank you.
