And Distortion. By Dwarfcraft Devices. like you're in a big hall or maybe a basement, try reverb and distortion
by Dwarfcraft
Devices. John Powell,
do you know who Dwarfcraft Devices is? I don't.
Yeah, John Powell was just saying
we were like, let's record this
commercial. Commercials?
Commercials? It used to be about the tapes.
We've gone commercial. Oh my
God. And I said,
yeah, we gotta do a commercial for our sponsor
Dwarfcraft Devices
and Sean Powell said
who's Dwarfcraft Devices
and I said
funny you should ask
Dwarfcraft Devices
is a company making
it's a
it's a
it's a place
it's a small
small business
it's a noun
a proper noun
yeah
making
very fine
effects pedals
and synth modules.
Are they on the internet?
No, they're not on the internet.
They've gone off the grid.
Even better.
Even better.
Who's that crazy guy you liked who went off the grid?
Which one?
He likes them all.
I like them all.
John's getting so excited.
They're off the grid?
I love when they're off the grid.
Right now in the background, you're listening to something recorded by a friend of the show,
Jamie Orlando, with a couple of Dwarfcraft devices.
Oh, yeah?
What Dwarfcraft devices did he use for this?
The Great Destroyer and the Synthmangler.
Oh, okay.
The Great Destroyer is like a fuzz distortion thing with a built-in oscillator.
Whoa.
There's like a starve control.
Oh, wow.
That like...
Starves the battery power?
Starves the battery power.
Nice.
Yeah, and the battery gets really nervous and calls an oscillator,
and he comes over and he's...
I think they make that as a EurRock module, too, don't they?
The Great Destroyer?
I think so, yeah.
I don't know.
I'm pretty sure they do.
I see the Great Destroyer is on sale on their site, dwarfcraft.com.
I'm not seeing a module of it.
They have the YEP, which we...
I'm pretty sure that a Great Destroyer is a Euro-Rock module.
It's hard to find because it's literally right next to it on the site.
So you would have to... Your glance would have to go over a few millimeters.
What is the synth one?
What do you mean?
What is a synthesizer?
A synthesizer is like a piano with batteries in it.
No, what's the synth pedal?
Is there something synth in the title?
Oh, the synth mangler.
That's the other one he's using.
I don't see that on their site.
But it's like, if you want to look here,
I've got a picture of it on my computer.
Come on around.
Doesn't that look tight?
It's got like a little joystick in the middle.
And Jamie wrote a little bit about it here.
He said that it's like two pedals in one with a funky joystick for ultimate tweakability.
Oh, I like that.
I like ultimate tweakability.
Ultimate tweakability. Oh, I like that. I like ultimate tweakability. Ultimate tweakability.
Like, you know, super tweakability is good,
but ultimate tweakability I think is probably better.
My mom couldn't breastfeed me because there was so much tweakability.
Both sides have the same controls, but their distortions are different.
You can engage both at the same time or choose one or the other.
There are dip switches for chaos and noise,
which can be used to screw up your screwed up sounds even more.
Hmm.
Whoa.
Play that again.
Start it up again.
Okay, I'll do it in post.
Okay.
Oh, that sounds good.
I like this part right here.
Yeah, that's tight.
I like that.
Ooh.
Ooh.
Yeah, that one got me.
Good one, Jamie.
John, that was off the grid, wasn't it?
Yeah.
Tasty licks. But yeah, I have actually right behind you, yeah, that one got me. Good one, Jamie. John, that was off the grid, wasn't it? Tasty licks.
But, yeah, I have actually right behind you, Dave,
there's that yellow, you see that yellow pedal right there?
That's a pitch shifter.
Oh, yeah.
Oh, wow.
It's really fun.
It's got like Wizard of Pitch.
Yes, the Wizard of Pitch.
Could I see that?
Don't tell them.
It's got some nice heft.
Yeah.
Really, really solid build quality here.
The switches feel good.
Yeah, I took it down to the docks and had the boys go at it for a little bit,
and they couldn't put a dent in it.
No, it's fine.
I was using that when we played that gig in New York.
It's a lot of fun.
It's got that step switch on it.
Do you see that there?
Is that what it is?
It says steps.
What's that, like autotune kind of?
Yeah, it's autotune.
That's exactly what it is.
It makes it like, you know, like it doesn't snap.
Yeah, it doesn't snap.
It just puts everything in the steps instead of sliding.
It's nice.
It's awesome.

Good one, John Pyle.
Going to raise the roof.
I like it.
Joe B.
Unable to join us.
Anyone know what Joe B.
is doing right now?
Washing his tights.
Washing his tights.
All right.
Probably.
I have a very special treat, though,
because since Joe B. is not here with his soundboard,
I get to use mine.
Oh, no.
I need to put my phone on airplane mode
so no one calls me.
Do you have me turned up here?
Am I turned up in the mix?
I just want to test it real quick.
Try it now.
They call me spooky.
Oh, there it is.
Oh, you wasted one.
Yeah, I can only use each of them one time, though.
I meant to get a bunch of really spooky ones
because we're so close to Halloween.
Don't worry.
His battery probably won't last for no more than an extra 15 minutes or so.
Well, it's not on my computer.
My computer, the battery definitely won't last if I unplug it.
Mike, I've been trying to tell you that Fisher-Price thing is not a real phone, man. Let's just gave you one of those.
You'd feel cool, so you'd fit in.
No, it's a Hewlett-Packard.
Nobody has a phone number called octopus.
People's phone numbers aren't
like little uh animals octopus but no bear and i call you and you're like roar and i'm like good
one dave john piles the dog he must be working i'll talk to him later in the middle of the night
it's always like let's play phone call and it lights up. I'm like, all right, let's do that.
Why? What do you guys'
phones do?
Other things? No, the same stuff.
Okay, there we go. We're on the same track.
John Powell, thanks for... You got a good one.
It's been a bit since you've been here.
Where have you been? You came like two
episodes ago. You showed up
and then
didn't stay for...
And then left.
Yeah, what was that all about?
You come just to feel out the situation.
You were like, nah.
I just checked it out and I had to bail.
You were like, I imagined, I thought there'd be more chicks here.
I love to bail so much that I just showed up and I was like, yeah.
You drove all the way from Philly, came down.
Just to bail.
Did you notice that that print that you made for Criterion ofuric Sound, I got it up there in a frame.
I did.
The frame makes it look very uneven, though.
Yeah, well, it was actually a Slogan Press that did that.
Okay.
Which is a subdivision of Torn Light Records out of Kentucky.
Oh, yeah, get on that mic.
Yeah, get on that mic a little bit.
Oh, sorry, it's a subdivision of Torn Light Records
out of Kentucky, Slogan Press, but they did that.
But yeah, I really like seeing the frame.
Oh, that's not a Kendrick thing?
I thought that was a...
No, no, no.
Kendrick, who just released your tape, right?
Yeah.
That's a really nice print, though, man.
That's great.
I got it hanging up right next to my tapes.
Yeah, I saw.
That's awesome.
Dave doesn't have his frame, though.
He doesn't respect it as much as I do.
I still have copies of it.
I need to get some good frames.
And there's still some available from the press.
I got a question.
Why is it that, a frame frames are so
expensive let me finish the whole thing frames are so expensive when you buy them new but used
are the cheapest thing at the thrift store like i feel like out of everything that goes from being
bought new to being bought users at a thrift store frames are the it's the biggest gap yeah like you
buy a new frame it can can be like $50.
And then that same frame a week later is at Salvation Army for $2.99.
That's true.
I never even thought about going to a thrift store to get frames.
I'm a thinker, so I'm always thinking about this kind of stuff.
Well, only ways to not spend any money.
You think about that all the time.
Well, you know, I got seven kids to feed.
I wish I could get that song clip on there Alright John Powell
Since you're
Thank you for joining us by the way
You want to start things off?
Yeah sure let's see
Let me reach into my little bag here
That's not Induendo
He's actually reaching into a little bag
Look at this
It appears to be some sort of a
cassette tape.
I gotta see. Every time I unlock
my phone.
Okay.
I'll see if it made that noise.
These are the things you have to figure out before we go on the air.
No, I'm a man of
let's do it.
All of a sudden I might be like, let's go whale hunting.
I can only afford like two or three edits per episode, man.
You're still paying for edits?
Yeah.
I told you, get off AOL, man.
Get on Comcast.
Limited edits.
Yeah, but you have a pop-up in front of your face.
That's cool, man.
Just move the pop-up, man.
You can't close it or move it.
Open two windows.
John, what do you got?
I got a cassette from What do you got?
Please, compact this blow.
A project.
Easy there, buddy.
I didn't mean to push that one.
I can't do it. It's hard.
How do you guys handle this? The power.
I'm done. Turn it off.
It's off. I'm done. I have a cassette
from Curative Measures called
England Wears a Mask
off the label Strange Rules.
It came out last year.
I'm not sure who's involved with the project,
but it's very good.
Very exciting.
You're not sure because you didn't look?
No, it doesn't list who's on the project.
This came out
on Strange Rules
last year.
Limited to 48 copies.
That's a weird number.
It's really good.
I think it actually...
No, Dave, that one's all weird.
This was on my best of the year list for 2014,
and I thought I'd played it before on here,
but I guess I haven't,
so we're going to start off...
It's not ringing a bell.
It's not?
No, it's definitely on the list.
Definitely my favorite tape.
No, it's not ringing a bell that you played it.
Oh, no, I didn't.
I checked.
Okay. I went through the archives, and I made double double sure my memory's not what it used to be um but i'm gonna play it was mine i'm gonna play the first track on here i kicked the head
by a donkey a few years ago he can't remember how come i'm here about that he still got that you did
we told you oh yeah oh wait memory Too scary. You guys got me.
Let me see.
The strange rules number 65.
65, Dave.
Funny number.
No, it's not.
It's not hanging.
There you go.
Trick might get one.
You might get one.
I broke the Norelco on the way here.
Oh, I hate a broken Norelco.
I'll tell you what, John.
I'll do you a solid.
I got some extras.
I'll hook you up.
You're the best.
Though this is a really nice Norelco.
Guys, just between us.
Just between us.
I don't want this to get out,
but whenever we get tabs out of tapes in the mail
that I don't like,
I save the Norelcos for the broken Norelcos
of tapes that I do like,
but don't tell anybody.
Oh, I do that too.
You do?
Well, some of them,
we have people that I need to send tapes to.
Just don't tell anybody.
But if something comes and it's a bad tape
and it has a nice green Norelco or a baby blue back, yeah, I keep that Norel send tapes to. Just don't tell anybody. But if something comes, and it's a bad tape, and it has a nice green Noroco, or a baby blue back,
yeah, I keep that Noroco.
Yeah.
Oh, you definitely want to save the baby blue back,
because if the baby blue back on a good tape breaks,
you definitely want to replace it.
Baby blue back.
Good one, John.
That's why we invited him.
You can go now.
So you got this queued up to something, or we just?
No, no, no.
Yeah, yeah, queued up to A1 No, no, no. Yeah, yeah.
Cued up to A1.
I got to say.
A1.
Steak sauce.
Yeah.
The steak sauce of tracks.
Yeah.
God damn it.
The steaks is hot.
I got to say, I've never...
It used to be a pet peeve of mine that I didn't like cassettes with just like a blank shell
sticker on it.
Yeah.
But I like them now.
I've always liked it.
I thought it was just... Head of the curve. I always think of it as like... Buddy Holiday. It's like them now. I've always liked it.
I always think of it as like a white label record.
It's just like a test press.
Buddy Holiday?
I meant...
I was looking at you and you were like
taking a sip of beer when I said it.
And I was like, okay, no one noticed.
No one noticed that I said Buddy Holiday.
No one noticed
that I mixed Billy Holiday and Buddy
Holly into one superhuman
that's a DJ that only
plays test presses.

Bag tapes?
Yeah.

All my bag tapes fit very nicely and there's a little like standing up

Dave I bet you can
buy clips like that

Home Depot

We already started, though.
I started the party.
No, it was me.
No, we're going to ramp it up.
John, you warmed everybody up.
Oh, I see.
I see how it is.
Well, John, you played a very important role.
You went around.
You got everybody nice and loose.
You got to get everybody nice and loose because you don't want to ramp things up right away
because then somebody's going to get a cramp, and then you're going to have to call the ambulance,
and then the party's going to be over before the sun goes down.
Yeah.
You got everybody nice and loose.
Yeah.
Now let's ramp it up a little bit.

What do you got here?
I'm going to play this davy diggs tape
davy diggs he's in uh clipping you know that you know clipping yeah i know clipping and uh
he's got like like you know producers or whatever like a bunch of different people
on every different track and i have word of that so poorly. I was going to say that was probably the worst.
He's got tracks with people that
numbers go
big on people with
different tracks that
do on this tape. My voice sounds
make word sense.
I'm going to play a track from
the A side.
Track is called Trappers.

Didn't answer my question.
You got anything more you want
to elaborate?
It's a good tape.
There you go. I really like it.
I wish I had this cover on sick. I love Monopoly.
The instrumentals
are not as wacky as some of the clipping stuff.
But I like it.
When you used to play Monopoly, what token were you?
What piece were you?
I liked the iron.
The iron?
Yeah.
What?
Yeah, the iron's awesome.
In my house, you were king if you had the top hat.
The top hat?
What is wrong with you people?
The race car.
No, I was the race car or the horse.

The race car.
Oh, my God.
Me and my brother both wanted to be the race car so hard that we got two different race
cars and painted one red and one blue.
Who gives a shit?
Monopoly sucks.
No, Monopoly is incredible.
Monopoly sucks.

than religious
you really don't like Monopoly
I like Monopoly
for the first half hour
and then I'm done Monopoly always I like a long for the first half hour, and then I'm done.
I like a long game.
I like a board game that you play.
For four hours?
Listen to me.
Hear me out.
I like a board game that you play, and then you have to stop playing, so you leave it
out on the table.
No, I don't like that.
And then the next day, you start it up again.
I don't like it with Monopoly, because it's mostly luck.
And then somebody pulls ahead, then it just says the guy who slowly you're slowly dying says the guy who always loses a monopoly that it's that
it's luck no it is skill my friend no it's based on a game uh called like the landlord game and
the person who made that is from delaware wow yeah it's crazy right it's not that crazy right
yeah it is is it it's pretty crazy pretty crazy. Right, John? Yeah.
Because you're from Delaware.
That's crazy.
I am?
So what do you want to... Oh, I love the silver imprint on a black shell.
It always looks so tight.
What font is that, Dave?
Oh, yeah.
Some San Serif font with some nice kerning between the letters.
I like it a lot.
That's kerning, right?
I always forget tracking and kerning.
Are they the same?
No, they're different.
What's the one that makes the whole paragraph look like a box?
Justification.
Okay, so it's not that.
Something else.
Justify text.
Side A?
You learned Side A?
Uh-huh.
Let's get into it.
Yeah, I'm going to play.
I already said what the name of the cut was.
Third track on the A side.
It is called Trappers.
It's a good one.
Let's do it.
You ever buy the railroads?
Did you guys buy the railroads?
Yes or no?
You already know what it is.
Jacuti Hives.
They even know you make beach breath.
Where we come from.
Khalil Anthony Peebles.
Yeah, come on.
Let's get it.
You know, it's a lot of shit talk going on in the rap game right now.
You know?
Personally, I got other things on my mind, man.
Say that shit. Yeah. Yeah., man Now talk shit if you want
For real, I'm only rapping
I stay out of traps
Why everybody trapping?
And maybe I'm just hating
Because I'm on these beats
But it's more drug dealers on MTV than in the streets
And that don't make no sense
You ask me how I feel
I think we all be tripping too hard on keeping it real
Personally, I like my music to take me away
I get reality outside my window every day
And every day is deadly, it's more just getting dressed
And every morning worthy of the Gettysburg Address
My address in the east, my coast is on the west
That coat of arms is heavy, so some prefer to vest
Maybe I rock it too, that look is kinda hot
Although I think a
better strategy is don't get shot my nigga don't get locked up over dumb shit ass all up and read
it cause you had some little funk shit some feel my tongue fit it's just a dumb show i ain't no
pup bitch i do go dumb though dumb as a nigga smart smart as a nigga grown and grown enough
to know nobody cares about these poems.
The poems are instrumental, the instrumentals knock, so whether or not you understand it, everybody rock.
Go ahead and clock in, I got it locked up.
Now talk shit if you want, but I don't give a fuck.
I don't give a fuck about what this shit means.
Oh, this motherfucker playing games as hard as I can see
He do what they really cannot do
He's got a beat
And he put trappers on TV
He put trappers on TV
Now talk shit if you want
For real, I'm only rappin'
This will not change the world
When this drops, nothing happens.
This music only pop.
I hope you're entertained.
Don't care what you believe.
Don't care what sets you claim.
Long as you claim it loud.
When you come to my shows.
So it's irrelevant.
We're artists.
This is how it goes.
I tell you where to go.
You tell me that it's left.
I'm right back in the laboratory cooking like it's crack.
And I'm an addict too.
Like any rockhead.
Plumbing the bedrock, sleeping on rock beds.
We built this city on it, progress is pity on it.
Conservatives can't serve it up and so they shit upon it.
The war on drugs, the war on terror, war for any season.
A warning sign that gets you ass when we war, what's the reason?
Why y'all be battle rapping?
Why do y'all carry guns?
We learn this shit from you, You think it's just for fun?
Well shit, you right it is
And tinged with innuendo
Satire tongue in cheek
And coon it up to the crescendo
This game like a Nintendo
Sometimes it's just for we
But still we put it in the air
For everyone to see
See me and now you don't
Here today, gone tomorrow
I'm on my money shit
Wherever it goes I follow
I know it's hard to swallow
Cause you thought you knew the kid
But it's coincidental that I share a name with Diggs
Go ahead and get it started
But I'm not the catalyst
I am a fictional character
I do not exist
I know you looking at me for truth
But shit you out of luck
Now talk shit if you want
But I don't give a fuck
Really shit I ever wrote
I don't give a fuck
I don't want this shit the fuck really shit I ever wrote OTP We We're gonna travel

I have no clue what this is but I know I'm going to like it so much
I know so it comes in one of those
poly cases.
That's about the size of two Norelco cases stacked on top of each other.
What is that?
Like a five by eight poly case?
I think it's almost like an A5 size.
Yeah, the big guy.
But not the big, big guy.
I feel like the lady on the cover here is the mother of those blow-up things in front of car dealerships.
The artwork was done by Keith Rankin.
Really?
Yeah.
Surprise.
Really?
With the grids and the orbs?
The dripping orbs?
Oh, my God.
So this tape is like a...
This is insane looking.
Sasha Konda is from Minneapolis, Minnesota.
And I believe this is a debut release.
But it comes with this 24-page short story by Patrick Scott Walsh called Bronco.
Dave, hand me the case.
And Dave, put the reverb on a little bit.
I'm going to read the description of the story.
Bronco Stevenson, a man devoid of all self-doubt or the capacity for deep thought but exceedingly effective in
more carnal procedures armed with a solid gold hand cannon a long territorial strut and a fierce
addiction to adrenaline inhalants and psycho inhibitors Bronco carves a path through the palace
Interior, a hyper-terrarian
Ultra-mall the size of a
City, a mecca of
Consumeristic glee, where half-jacked
Vape junkies crowd the
Halls of the Walgreens Health
Service
Shut up!
Shut up!
And the plastic men survey every square inch of marketable real estate.
Bronco is both an auditory and literary journey
filled with hallucinogenic grooves, blasted techno, and dystopian cyberpunk.
Oh, boy!
So that's the story.
And it comes with this, like I said, the 24-page booklet.
You're holding it, Dave.
About Bronco, the lead character bronco stevenson bronco stevenson yeah i got a cute up to a track here i think on the b side bronco stevenson doesn't sound like it would be the uh
the character name for this uh the lead characters you think that would be like the used car dealer
in the story well i'm Bronco Stevenson.
Come on down to Bronco Stevenson.
Use Jeeps and teriyaki.
It sounds like an old Western story.
Well, let's get into it.
I think we can all get the idea with the Bronco Stevenson here.
This like... Is that a Bronco?
Bronco Stevenson has the long red trench coat,
flowing blonde hair.
These futuristic...
He or she is holding
this glass orb
or this glowing orb and a
stick that says... That's not just the hand, huh?
No, that's not a hand. That's an orb
in the hand. Or is it the hand?
No, that's... There's something in
that hand.
Okay. I couldn't see it from
back there. Hand it back to me.
What's in the other hand? I need to be holding it.
That's what I was getting at. What does it say on that? I know. Maybe it from back there. Hand it back to me. What's in the other hand? I need to be holding it. That's what I was getting at.
What does it say on that?
I know.
Maybe it's like a candy bar.
I like holding things.
What does it say?
It's really small type.
Effortless.
Holding, yeah, like a golden dildo that says effortless.
The Effortless by Bronco.
I like the sunglasses Bronco's wearing.
Me too.
I like it.
Macho Man glasses.
Yeah.
They've got like a nice little pink.
And the font and like orange and yellow gradient in the word Bronco on the top is like perfect.
Yeah.
And it's going to be perfect for what you hear too.
So let's get into it.
All right.
This is a whole ride.
Not Not Fun number 319.
John Paul, you got anything to say? You've been been quiet you got anything to say oh no i'm just i've been waiting for you guys to

Personality.
Yours is pretty bad.

Why are you mute pranking me?
Let's speak American.
Call that for that. Jesus. Trust me. You trust me. Why are you pranking me? Let's speak American. God, if Leatherhound doesn't make any sense.
Call that for that.
Jesus.
Well, trust me.
You trust me.
In the heat of the moment,
if that just came in while you were saying that,
people would have lost their fucking minds.
I bet.
All right, John, what do you got?
All right.
You do good sound effects, Mike.
So I have, if you guys will be so kind
as to not interrupt me with any wackiness
That doesn't happen on this show
I have Plagues Nature Does Not Nurture
Which is a C10
On Unseen Force
Long one for you
That's not even funny
What's the shortest length tape you'll go John
Where you personally just say,
I can't do it?
I don't know.
Like a C1?
No, I mean, I have a C5 in my collection that I like.
That you like?
I like.
That's one side of a 7-inch.
That's a one-sided 7-inch.
Whatever.
It's still good.
I don't know.
I need at least, give me a C20 minimal.
John's a busy guy.
If he was a busy guy, he'd run along once.
He wouldn't have to be flipping and stuff.
I like to flip.
Everybody gets to stay home all day, Mike.
It's so easy. I got it made.
Anyway, this is Plagues,
the project of Brandon Hill,
who also does the label Starved Relations.
Brandon's a really an
awesome person who prove it I'll show you my emails with him like I won't
email for like months prove a turkey hey I need all I need you to turn over all
the you know yeah Benghazi Bazinga Bazing's very topical. Bazinga. That's it.
It's pretty good.
Bazinga. It's cheap. What do you want?
How I Met Your Mother.
Have some mercy.
Have some mercy.
Did we do this?
Here it goes.
Who's this character?
Ray Romano, dude.
That was your Ray Romano?
You don't think that sounds like Ray Romano?
Do it again.
John's good at voice impressions.
Yeah, I'm good at voices.
Let me hear it again.
Hey, guys.
What's up?
Hey, my brother's tall.
We're going to raise the roof.
All right.
Maybe it's all right.
Do your Pee Wee Herman.
Whoa, wait.
You really do a Pee Wee Herman?
It's like I'm there. It's like, which Pee Wee Herman. Whoa, wait. You really do a Pee Wee Herman? It's like I'm there.
It's like, which Pee Wee?
I have to say, hands down, though, my favorite is your butthead.
What?
Your butthead.
Well, thank you.
Do your butthead.
Do something.
Oh, the voice.
Hold on.
Whoa, whoa, whoa.
I want to turn around and close my eyes.
Turn my headphones up, Dave.
All right, go.
Do one.
Whoa. That right, go. Do one. Whoa.
That's pretty good.
You do a pretty good Mr. Anderson, too, don't you?
It's like I left liquid television on you.
Well, I don't know.
I used to try to do Mr. Anderson, but everyone's like,
yo, Hank Hill, you love that show.
I hate that show.
No, that show's pretty good.
I don't know.
I'm not into it.
I think all the spinoffs and merchandise.
It's just got two commercials. It's not off the grid enough for me. You do like shit that's's pretty good. I don't know. I'm not into it. I think all the spinoffs and merchandise,
it's just got two commercials.
It's not off the grid enough for me.
You do like shit that's off the grid.
John likes this very obscure Norwegian cartoon about a guy stuck under a rock.
Clerical The Singing Bear.
Yeah.
It's about a guy stuck under a rock,
and every day it just talks about what he saw that day.
It's all black and white.
It's silent.
All right, what are you playing?
I'm playing Dave.
Dave, you're trying to be professional.
This is great.
That wouldn't happen on NPR.
Sure wouldn't.
That wouldn't happen on Norepo Mori.
Don't even say it.
I know exactly what you're going to say.
You utter that fucking name here
and you'll never see the innards of going to say. Don't you even dare. You utter their fucking name here and you'll never
see the innards of this home again.
Whatever do you mean? Just go
and pick your fucking tape.
I will chisel you
like granite.
Okay, pizza boy.
Okay.
Here we have
a tape by Plagues.
Nature does not nurture on unseen
force.
Thank you.
All right.
Another one with just the label on the one side.
Yeah, but I love... Let me see the cover.
Is there any text on this at all?
Yeah.
That's my favorite.
Oh, I couldn't see it.
It's a smoky colored tape, which is like...
I love that.
I think that's like the best cassette color ever.
Oh, these fucking... The little stickers on the Rocco case. I love that. I think that's like the best cassette color ever. Oh, these fucking, the little
stickers on the Rocco case. I hate that.
I hate that.
I hate it.
This is tight. I like this paper.
No, the paper's amazing and the tape is that amazing.
What color is that? Is it purple?
That's like a burgundy.
Burgundy, huh?
It looks gold, but then it's obviously like a maroon.
It's burgundy.
It's a fine... Burgundy, burgundy, burgoon. It's burgundy. It's a fine...
Burgundy, burgundy, burgundy.
That is burgundy.
You want to see that, Dave?
It is a burgundy from afar.
It looks purple.
Or maybe even almost an oxblood.
I'm not sure.
Oxblood, huh?
Yeah.
I like...
Or like a yaksblood, maybe.
I don't know.
Plagues.
From the tape, nature Does Not Nurture
on Unseen Force.
Is this a new one?
It came out very early in the year.
I think like January, maybe.
January.
It's been a while.
Sparkly.
Here it is. © BF-WATCH TV 2021 Thank you. Thank you. © BF-WATCH TV 2021 Thank you. ¶¶ Get out! Thank you. © BF-WATCH TV 2021 Flakes.
Let me finish chewing this, Dave.
Whoa.
I don't wait for anybody.
Nature does not nurture.
Speaking of nature, we went out to get some treats, and there was a small fire.
Granted, it was small.
Almost not even going.
Like, we saw the beginnings of the fire, but it was a fire nonetheless.
Where was it, Mike?
Say where it was.
It was on Adams Street.
Where specifically?
What do you mean, where specifically?
Like, where was the fire?
Like, it wasn't in a house.
It wasn't under a car.
It was like dried leaves on the curb.
Yeah, where?
On the street.
Look what...
And I said...
It was in a sewer.
And I said to Dave, we should call 911.
And he's an animal, that man.
Well, who cares?
Just fire.
What's going to happen?
Alert them.
Alert someone.
That fire could grow.
There's a lot of dry leaves out there.
There's a lot of ninja turtles down there that could suffer.
Fuck you guys.
There's a lot of dry leaves.
I'm being dead serious right now.
Everyone listen right now.
If you see a fire, alert the
authorities. Don't be
a John
Pyle or a Dave. Alert your authorities.
Alright, whose turn
is it? My turn.
Go.
Still pissed about that fire.
You would be. There's two fire trucks
there right now. It's probably just getting
started. I'm going to play this tape that came out recently on Eiderdown.
Eiderdown.
Eiderdown.
Eiderdown.
Woven Skull.
Go on, boy.
Woven Skull.
Woven Skull.
A skull that's been woven.
Woven Skull.
Emissions from sun-bleached brains.
That's a pretty good title.
This is a good tape, and that is a really good title.
There are a lot of people on this tape.
Oh, like the last one.
Different people, a lot of people, different people.
That is a cool cover.
Henry Davies, Hans Denz.
John, have you not seen a tape on Eater now?
False Sir Nicholas.
No.
Is it Eider or Eater?
It's like the feathers of something.
Some other people.
Well, anyway, John.
I forget who does the artwork.
We say it every time we play, but then we always forget.
It is very cool.
Yeah, it all looks like that, and they're all silkscreen.
It's beautiful.
Wow.
What was the other tape that came out with this?
What was it?
I have it, and I can't remember.
I just wish I could see it.
Who did that artwork?
Max Klotfetter.
Max Klotfetter.
Felder.
Klotfeller.
That is an awesome artwork.
They do the artwork for all the Eiderdown tapes, I'm pretty sure.
I got more on the shelf we can look at in a little bit.
Oh, nice.
Really nice silk screen.
Beautiful.
They're always beautiful.
Just amazing work. Really, really good full i like it gets me it gets me going i like it a lot
what's the name of the tape again say the name emissions from sun bleached brains emissions or
a mission emissions emissions from sun bleached what? Brains. Emissions from? From what brains?
I really like the shell on this too.
Eaterdown's been doing the clear shells with the white imprinting for a while.
On both sides?
On both sides.
Yeah, I like when there's a clear shell with imprinting on both sides.
Yeah.
It messes with your eyes is what it does.
It does a little bit.
It messes with your eyes.
It gives it some dimension.
I like the thing you do with your lip there when you say that.
Did I do a thing with my lip?
You did a thing with your lip.
Nice.
All right, so you want to play this?
I guess.
We talked about it enough.
Okay, well, let's do it.
Woven skull.
Ider down.
Emissions from sun-bleached brains? I'm sorry. I'm sorry. so Thank you. ¶¶ Woven skull.
We back?
We're back.
We're back.
We came right in there.
Vengeance.
I'm looking around for this tape I can't find.
Does anyone have a tape around them with leaves on it?
With leaves.
Like plastic leaves?
Like you would go to a craft store?
Is it over there behind you?
Do you see it in there?
It's what I want to play right now.
This one?
John, have you ever seen a tree before?
That has no leaves on it.
No.
Don't buy that again.
Where the fuck did I put it?
Your butt.
Come on, you.
Get a little rails on me.
All right.
I'm switching up till I find it.
But I still need a tip from that box.
You got the box?
Hand me that Gorilla Toss tape.
What's in the box?
Wait, where?
What's in the box? It's yellow.illa Toss tape. What's in the box? Wait, where? What's in the box?
It's yellow. Yellow.
It's gotta be in there.
Yellow.
God, I feel like a fucking idiot right now.
Oh, here it is. Jesus Christ, hand it to me.
That doesn't say Gorilla Toss in the front, though.
It says it on the spine, and that's what you're looking at.
It was facing up.
And it's yellow. Gorilla Toss.
Shut up!
Flood Dosed cassette on DFA.
Came out... Whoa.
Whoa what?
DFA, that's a rather prestigious label.
Yeah.
For some reason they sent us this tape.
Cool.
That was pretty cool of them.
But you know what, guys cool that's pretty cool of them um but you know what guys you're pretty cool um gorilla toss from uh boston a huge huge unit have you ever heard of
them john yo yeah they did a tape on nna not that long ago that was fucking tight and a bunch of
other shit this tape however is an addition of 300 which i seem to feel like is rather large
normally everything's a little bit lower than that yeah someone look at me someone someone is an addition of 300, which I feel like is rather large.
Normally everything's a little bit lower than that.
Yeah.
Someone look at me.
Someone face me.
Dave, come on.
What are you doing?
I'm eating Cheetos.
What is going on over there?
I don't want to eat them into the mic.
That's fine, man.
That's what makes the show real, man.
I hate when you eat into the mic so much.
Me?
Hate it.
Yes.
Don't do it.
Yes.
Are you serious? I hate when anybody eats into a mic. Are you Me? Hate it. Yes. Are you serious? Don't do it. Yes. Are you serious?
I hate when anybody eats into a mic. Are you being real with me?
I hate mouth noises. What if I drink water? That's fine. I want to hear it.
Give me a shot. Closer to the mic.
That's fine.
I prefer that.
I prefer you only do that for the rest of the show.
But this came out
earlier in the month,
early in October. Edition of 300.
Killer fucking artwork.
It reminds me a lot, for some reason,
it doesn't really look like it,
but Super Mario Bros. 2, for some reason.
But it doesn't look like Super Mario Bros. 2.
Where you're going through the desert
and the sun starts trying to attack you.
Yeah, but that's not what I know.
That's Mario 3.
Super Mario Bros. 3.
That happens in 2 as well.
It does?
Yeah, there's a desert where you dig through the sand. That happens in 2 as well. It does? Yeah.
Yeah, there's a desert where you dig through the sand and stuff.
Yeah, but the sun doesn't chase you.
It does on one part.
No, no, it's fireballs.
A plant shoots fireballs at you.
That's different.
You're talking about...
In 3, the sun chases you.
But this looks nothing like Super Mario Bros. 2,
but for some reason, that's all it reminds me of.
Yeah.
The sun on top of the pyramid.
What's it doing? Eating brains off the pyramid? Let me see.
There you go. There you go, Cheeto boy.
That's because the snake's standing up.
That's what it is.
What's the snake? What are you talking about?
On the side. That's why it reminds me of Super Mario Bros. 2.
That's why, yeah, when they come out of the tubes.
It's the cactuses that stand up like that.
I hate the cactuses.
I do, too. There's a lot about Super Mario Bros. 2 that I don't like, but also it's really fun.
It's my favorite.
It's the hardest one out of those three.
I think it's the easiest one.
You do, huh?
Who do you like to be in that?
Let me see.
For Monopoly, you were the top ad.
Who do you like to be in Super Mario Bros. 2?
Oh, the princess.
Okay.
I'm glad you said that.
Yeah, the floating.
I'm going to guess Dave's going with Luigi with the gangly legs.
Yeah.
I like Luigi.
Are you serious?
Oh, that's so disgusting. The high jumps. Are you serious? That's so disgusting.
The high jumps in there are so useless.
You can't control that.
The princess is easily the best character.
She floats all around.
It's cheating.
It's a special power that nobody else has.
But they all have different powers.
Toad can't jump really high
but can dig really fast.
Yeah.
And Luigi,
I think the faster you dig,
the less you can jump.
He's got height in his jump.
But he's a slow,
he digs really slow.
But what does Mario do?
He's your baseline.
He sucks.
He's a heroin addict.
He's slow,
he doesn't jump very high.
Mario's terrible.
No one's ever Mario's
remember those two?
What was that game supposed to be?
It was originally
it wasn't originally
2. It was released in Japan as a kind of a
spin-off because it's a dream
that Mario's having.
And in America
they felt that
the second Super Mario Bros. 2
was too
difficult for American audiences,
so they didn't release it, and they released that instead
in America's Super Mario Bros. 2.
And then the original Mario Bros. 2 was released
as the Lost Levels on Super Nintendo.
But what I'm saying is that game was another game in Japan, right?
Yeah.
What was it called?
I don't remember. Something Monks. It was like something
I think it had to do with Monks. Really?
Are you making that up?
No, no. Crazy. I'm gonna
Google it right now. That's deep.
I'm gonna say, what was
Super Mario Bros. 2
originally?
I'm gonna hit enter.
The secret. I like how they hit enter. The secret.
I like how they call it the secret history,
if you remember those two.
How is it secret if you just click on a link?
Doki Doki Panic.
Doki Doki Panic?
Doki Doki Panic.
That's what it was called originally.
You know, there was going to be
a Mike Tyson's Punch-Out!! 2.
Oh, yeah? And it was supposed to be
Mike Tyson fights in space.
Are you serious?
Yeah, and NES was developing the game
and then all that stuff happened with
Mike Tyson with his rape allegations
and everything. So you were Mike Tyson
in the game? Yeah. And you're boxing in space?
You're boxing in space, but they released it as
Power Punch 2 instead of Mike Tyson's Punch-Out 2,
even though there was no Power Punch 1.
Are you serious?
That's crazy.
And I had that game.
I didn't realize that it was,
at the time,
I didn't realize it was originally supposed to be.
Why didn't they just call it Power Punch?
I don't know.
With the Goonies 2 video game
that came out on NES,
I was so confused.
And I was like,
so there was a Goonies 2 movie
and they made the game as a spinoff, right? And so I was like, why can't I find out there was a Goonies 2 movie and they made the game as a spinoff, right?
And so I was like,
why can't I find out
anything about this
Goonies 2 movie?
But then I realized
the game was just supposed
to be a sequel
years after the fact.
I didn't even know
they made two Goonies games.
They only made one.
There's only one Goonies game
and it's called Goonies 2
because it's a sequel
to the movie.
Are you serious?
But there was no
original Goonies game, and there was
no Goonies 2 movie. So it's a
movie with a sequel that's a video game?
Yes, the sequel is a video game.
And you have to save a mermaid in it.
Was Power Punch 2 in space still,
Dave? Huh?
Was it still set in space? Yeah.
Why don't I call it Space Punch 1?
And the...
Instead of Mike Tyson, the guy's name is Mark Tyler.
They leave you a little bit of a clue.
I don't know if I believe this.
No, look.
I'm looking at it right now.
All right.
Well, while we look it up, let's listen to this Gorilla Toss tape.
A Gorilla Toss tape.
Here it is.
Called Flood Dosed on DFA.
DFA number.
That's a big number. I can't even see them them i need new glasses and i just got new glasses the game was originally to be titled mike tyson's intergalactic
power punch it was to follow punch out formula only this time player would control former heavyweight
champion mike tyson instead of competing against him i hope you had to fight little mac at the end
but he was like an alien. Like it was Little Mac's
essence in an alien structure.
And that was the last thing you fought.
Don King was also supposed
to be part of the game. No shit.
They should have just had it just be a Don
King game.
Don King Super Spage Punch 3
comma the Goonies
quote Warhawk colon Goonies
2.
Alright. What are we playing calling Goonies too.
All right.
What are we playing?
Gorilla Toss.

How many
different... I know we've had this conversation before.
We had this conversation on episode seven, early on.
It was how many different fucking cassette shells are there?
There's so many different ones that have this waffle cone going on around it and others
that don't.
Does that one have a soft window on it?
I love...
Oh, it doesn't.
I'm a big fan of the soft windows lately.
You like the soft windows?
I hate the soft windows.
I feel so insecure.
I also,

I also love the poly cases too.
Like I have,
I have kind of like.
Well,
you also bootleg tapes that you get.
You were talking about this earlier.
No,
well,
no.
If someone,
if someone has a tape that I want and it's out of print,
rather than going and download it,
I'll dub it from them and then I'll Xerox the cover for myself
because I like to have the physical tape.
I don't really listen to MP3s or any of this fancy kid stuff.
You're a bootlegger.
You're a bootlegger.
Yeah, I'm a bootlegger.
You're a bootlegger.

You're so dumb.
V. Sinclair.
The Cloister Estuary.
That is what I'm talking about.
That is what you're talking about.
I couldn't even focus on that
because I'm just thinking about that fire.
Oh, my God.
It's probably raging out there.
You missed out.
No, the fire department
was there.
Yeah, but can they handle it?
Do we have enough water?
There's a drought in California.
That's what makes Tabs out
better than Noroco Mori.
We don't have a drought.
You fucking dummies.
Get some water.
Dave, go pour out a bucket.
Get a bucket of water.
John, do me a favor.
Get a bucket of water
and just pour it out for me.

The official nut of America
Is Gallagher
He's a nut
That guy's a crack up
Is he still alive?
Probably
No he died
Yeah he drowned in a Fire I just want to alive? No, he died. He drowned in a fire.
I just want to dedicate this show to Gallagher.
He drowned in that specific fire across the street.
Are we dedicating it or donating it to him?
Dedicating.
This show, Gallagher.
If he's alive, we should donate it to him.
He can have it.
John Pyle, grab that big rubber sledgehammer behind you
and let's smash some cassettes.
That'd be a good bit.
We'll do a little,
you ever wonder why chrome is...
And then we'll do a bit.
Then we'll have an ending.
And then we'll smash it.
We'll have a drawing for chrome domers
to sit in the splatter zone.
Yeah.
Tabs out splatter zone.
Eyes are both shirts.
Eyes are both cheap plastic.
Yeah.
Yeah, there you go.
No, you hold up a big
giant plastic thing that's shaped like a cassette
and you look through the spools in the window.
And that's how you see it.
Alright, whose turn is it?
My turn.
Well then go, dummy.
I'm gonna go.
Dave's such a dummy.
John, on a scale of 1 to 10, how much is Dave a dummy?
Probably like 13 or 14. You're so dummy. John, on a scale of 1 to 10, how much is Dave a dummy? Probably like 13 or 14.
You're so dummy.
What do you got, dummy?
You disgrace!
I'm going to play this Jason Muscley tape that came out on pie tapes.
Hell yeah.
P-A-I.
P-A-I.
Not like the number or the sweet dessert.
Neither of those.
Neither of those. A new one. A new kind of pie that I've never heard of before
Fellas, you hear this? They're making a new kind of pie now
Jason Luskley
He sent us this tape
About a month ago maybe
I think this came out
I like the cover
Yeah, this is only pie number five
New label
Where are they from?
I knew and now I forget.
Oh, great.
Fantastic.
Blow out your ass.
You location hipster.
Go get a GPS.
You're an American peanut.
You're nothing but an American peanut.
What was Jason Lescalete's label called?
Glistening something?
Geffen.
Geffen.
Glistening Geffen.
No, it was called Lookout Records.
Lookout Records?
Yeah.
I thought it was Warner Brothers.
It was Warmer Brothers.
Warmer Brothers.
Pytapes is from Finland.
Ah, Finland, the old country.
John, you know a lot about Finland.
Oh, I love Finland.
Give us a fun Finland fact.
That's where sharks come from.
And other finned creatures.
There's lots of berries there.
Oh, I'm scared of berries.
I'm scared of tigers.
I'm scared of lions.
Lions, tigers, and berries, aren't we?
Lions, tigers, and berries.
Keep them away from me.
Barry Sanders for president.
Nice job.
This is all good.
It's like you worked in a meme somehow.
I liked it.
Funny thing that
sharks come from land.
What do you mean?
Finland.
When you really put
thought into it,
that is weird.
Yeah, that's weird.
Because they like to swim
They do
They can't stop doing it
They literally can't get enough of it
It's like a shark stand up comedian
You hear about this swimming
I can't get enough of it
Hey where's everybody going
Hey
Alright what team do we have
What are we
Jason Lescalete
Jason Lescalete Yeah Jason Lescalete.
Yeah, I'm going to play a little bit something from My Machine.
My Machine.
And then on over.
White cover.
You like that white cover, Mike?
Nope.
Why not?
No, it's just that I like it a lot.
I like how his machine is boxed out on top and then the text on the bottom.
It's tight looking.
I like it too.
I like the stamping here on the label. This is very nice. It's a tapeed out on top and then the text on the bottom. It's tight looking. I like it too. I like the stamping here on the label.
This is very nice.
Yes, tape machine.
What?
Yes, tape machine.
He's a very weak man.
He recorded on tape machine because he's a very weak man.
Does that make him weak?
I don't know.
I just like using this reverb as a crutch for my bad jokes.
No, I think it makes a good joke better.
Give it to me really quick.
Give you what? Never mind.
Do you know if all the tapes on this label...
What do you want me to give you, big guy? Nothing.
How come I haven't any reverb? Oh, that's true.
I'll give you some. You want a little bit?
I'll give you a little bit. Yeah.
You gotta put a quarter in the mixer to get one on your channel.
Oh, yeah. Say something.
You like that? Yeah.
Say something good.
It's hard when you put it on the spot, right?
Give me reverb.
I'll say something.
No, I'm not going to give you any reverb.
You don't deserve any.
Give me a half.
Give me a little piece.
One nugget.
You don't deserve any reverb.
I'll say something about John Pyle.

Okay, give me a second.
Let me, uh, do you have those two retones?
Because I can, uh, I can make, uh, stamp them in and, uh,

Let's go eat my machine.
My machine.
Pie dips.
What is that?
You sound like Zeke the Plumber from Salute Your Shorts.
I don't remember what he sounds like. Just like that. What is that? You sound like Zeke the Plumber from Salute Your Shorts. I don't remember what he sounds like.
Just like that.
Just like that.
Except he has a little bit of a donkey lips type speech impediment.
So it's like Zeke the Plumber.
Is he a spooky character?
Is he too scary?
Huh?
It sounds like he's too scary.
He had like his nose cut off or something.
You didn't have a sense of smell.
Do you remember the backstory of Zeke the Plumber?
That's the only way you could be a plumber.
If you get your nose cut off.
Every plumber has surgically or accidentally
had their noses removed.
Which is not true.
I'm misleading the American people.
Whose turn is it?
I think it's...
Is it yours?
It's my turn, yes.
It's yours. I finally found it when I was looking for those Is it yours? It's my turn, yes. It's yours.
I'm going to play this tape.
I finally found it when I was looking for those plastic leaves.
This is what I was talking about.
Whoa, that is a leafy...
Oh, something just fell down.
Who cares?
This is a...
Oh, God.
Falling apart.
No, this little guy showed up.
A little special thing.
It's got this little fabric pouch.
A little like...
It's like a little camouflage thing, huh?
Yeah, it's camouflaged.
That's why it's so much trouble finding it.
So camels can't find it.
Yeah, that's why.
Because my whole house looks like this.
It's got these little like...
You do want to flage it from the camels.
That's true.
Little plastic leaves sewn on this.
Like little plastic twig going around this thing.
The tape slides in there.
And you look at it and at first you think,
where am I going to put that?
Where am I going to put that? On your Christmas tree, dummy.
It's kind of like it would go on like,
it's like more of a fall ornament, Dave.
That could definitely go on a Christmas tree.
I could see you wearing those ferns as like a hat.
Yeah.
Some kind.
That'd be nice.
Some sort of headwear.
Yeah.
Like some kind of decorative thing
on one of those big Russian
furry hats. Okay, yeah.
I see what you're getting at. Right at the tippy top?
Like for status.
Yeah. Other people don't
have one. They look at you and then they
cross the street. They know to give you...
There he is. He's the guy in charge.
Give him something. Give him some room.
Give the man some room. Give him a treat.
Yeah.
Throw over the guy who got a bag of Chex Mix.
Throws it over.
Halfway done.
Just gives it to him.
So, like, you know, spray painted shell.
And it's kind of like, you know, it looks nice.
It's cool.
It's nice.
But, yeah.
Where am I putting that?
But I threw this tape on.
And brothers and daughters, I really like this one.
This is a tape by a group
called giant squid autopsy out of chicago it's a self-release tape title the title of the tape is
a triangle like like the shape or it's spelled that way no it's like the shape they have some
other stuff out and it's all like shapes is the title or there's a need of different different
symbols different symbols i saw some um any like dingbats or web webdings no dingbats or webdings
or emojis or anything but i saw something the other day about like who the the the body that
approves like a new emojis and stuff like they handle all like oh yeah i saw the characters on a
keyboard they assign each one
it's like code or whatever yeah and they get to approve all the new that's so much power
yeah like to approve a new code i don't know i forget unicode yeah it's unicode and they're
really excited about what are they about to release an avocado or something they think
an avocado is one of them yeah yeah they're really stoked about that they're stoked about
that one specifically yeah for, for some reason.
I don't know.
You know what else they're putting out, right?
No.
Two strips of bacon.
Oh, yeah, that's right.
They are putting out two strips of bacon.
Which I feel like...
First of all, I feel like Dave should be playing that sound clip right about now.
I tried to, but I had the wrong window open.
Now that moment has passed.
He's over there playing Minesweeper.
So they're putting out a two strips of bacon emoji.
Throw him another one.
Didn't take it.
I was sipping a beer.
You're doing it on purpose now.
And I think anytime you use that, I think we get like 0.3 cents or something like that.
It's like Spotify.
But what power to have to be like, no, we're not doing the pie.
Yes, we're doing the cake.
And who, who, here's my next question.
Who, what, who, who creates the emojis in the first place?
Who does that?
Who submits them?
How do you submit an emoji?
Yeah, I don't know.
That's a good question.
There must be a form or something
you can fill out and petition for a new emoji.
Like, I want a plunger or something.
Oh, that'd be a good one.
They don't have a plunger.
A plunger would be a really good one.
A plunger would be really...
Wow, I can't believe they don't have a plunger.
I can see it in my head. Maybe they should make me emoji designer. Yeah, they really dropped the ball with a plunger. A plunger would be a really good one. There's really not one. Wow, I can't believe they don't have a plunger. I can see it in my head.
Maybe they should make me emoji designer.
Yeah, they really dropped the ball with the plunger emoji.
Yeah, a plunger would be good.
There's a lot of really bad ones.
There's a lot of ones you're never going to use.
Yeah.
Like what?
Like the weird, it almost looks like a stock market type thing.
I use that all the time when I'm talking to my broker.
What are you talking about?
I was going to say the eggplant.
And just like five different colored
arrows in every direction?
You've got to point every way.
Yeah, but just do one color.
The plunger, though, was really good. Or a roll of toilet paper?
A roll of toilet paper would be really good.
Yeah, I mean, there's already that smiling poopy
thing in there, but I think the teepee
would be better.
I agree. You know, you have them both.
They're talking about putting a shotgun
in, too. I don't like that.
I don't like that one either.
I'm all for it. It gets the guns off the streets and onto the phones.
Any gun we can get off
the street, an emoji gun is a lot better
than a real gun. That's true.
I think we need to get...
Mike, don't get too political.
I don't want to get too political.
Barmy Sambers, 2017.
All right, Giant Squid Autopsy.
How much have I said so far?
I love birdie sandals.
I love blarney slambles.
Mel Westrada, Andrea Malik, Brian Fox.
Trio from Chicago.
Self-released this tape in June in an edition of 50.

I'm going to put it in this side and see what happens.
All right, well, let's get into this.
Giant Squid Autopsy, a self-release tape.
That title is a triangle. Thank you. Thank you. © BF-WATCH TV 2021 Thank you. The train is now departing for the next station. Giant squid autopsy.
I wonder what they found in that autopsy.
What did the giant squid die of?
Murder.
He died of murder?
Murder.
He died of murdering someone?
Squid murder.
He murdered too many people.
And it just killed him.
It was like, this is killing me.
And then he died. it's a hard life
murder most foul
yeah it's a tight tape though
you can pick that up from their
comp
giant squid autopsy
I think that's their only like actual
there's some other stuff but I think that's the only like
physical release I think
don't take my worms for it I think that's the only physical release. I think. Don't take my
worms for it. Their only fiscal
release? Their only fiscal release.
Mike, I don't like where you put your laptop up there.
It's just got to be up there just for one thing.
Oh, no. Oh, man. Just for one thing.
All right, John-Pi, what do you got? All right.
I can't see your little rock face anymore. I'll move in a second.
I have
Heinz Hoff
Ids Inte, I think it's how it's said,
on Vitrine, Vitrine number 12.
God, I wish my sound clips worked.
Speak American.
And this is actually,
I just want to, you know, full disclosure.
Come clean, you jerk.
This is not a real copy of it.
This is actually a homed, dubbed copy of it.
A friend lent it to me.
Explain yourself.
Well, you know, when there's a tape I want
and somebody I know has it and it's not available anymore,
I'm rather than downloading it like some kind of criminal,
common foot pad.
I like to borrow it and dub it and Xerox the cover
and make my own copy of it.
That's all. Just for yourself, right? Yeah, I like to fancy myself a bit of a pirateerox the cover and make my own copy of it. That's all.
Just for yourself, right?
Yeah, I like to fancy myself a bit of a pirate, but not like a frilly, sleet, like a Han Solo kind of guy.
They're going to take you to court, John Pyle.
Noise court.
Noise court.
You're going to let her in the middle.
Don't, don't, don't.
Welcome to noise court.
You did not have that.
You son of a bitch.
In the case of Vitrine versus John Powell.
Keep going.
Well, that's why I need to move the laptop up there.
It's all done.
Oh, okay.
That was poignant.
Thank you.
I agree.
No, how often do you do this john how often do you get a tape that's not available i two-part question how often do you get a tape that's
not available and make your own copy like this and also are you doing it to tapes that are
available john no no you checked all distros to make sure that this tape was completely sold out. Not just sold out at source.
I did a little bit of a search, but I couldn't be wrong.
You binged.
I want to know what terms you binged.
What turds did you bing?
What turds you binging?
What turds you binging for you bootleg, you pirate?
Come on, you're on earth here.
Your honor.
You're under noise.
I rest my case. Now let me see your version of it. My version. You're under noise. I rest my case.
Now let me see
your version.
My version of it
looks pretty good.
Your version looks
like it'd be on
the ruins.
John.
John.
What?
In all seriousness,
I really like that
you do this.
No, I like it too.
I'm thinking about
starting it myself.
I'm thinking about
going on Soulsteak
and downloading a
shitload of albums
and then just
dedicating a shelf
to bootleg tapes.
Yeah, man. Go on Stolesake.
I have a couple friends in Europe who
were like,
I'm so international.
We'll do
with old black metal
demos, we'll go and
scan the cover art and send that
and send it with the files and stuff
and make our own tapes of it and stuff like that.
It's just tape trading.
It's old school tape trading.
It's good.
I like it.
No, I like it.
I'm for it.
For the new millennium.
I'm like a pioneer.
Sort of like Lewis and Clark or George Washington
or Neil Armstrong.
You're like George Washington in that you own slaves.
No.
Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa.
Do I have this tape?
Look up.
Because the vintage version's like,
it's probably so much better than this.
Oh, what?
Because there's a full color cover
and it doesn't look like it was Xeroxed by a kindergartner?
And you just used a C92?
That's what I had around.
See, I like that, though.
Let me ask you this.
Are both sides of the original on
one side of this tape? Or did you stop
it and then rewind and start it over?
I flipped it. Okay. Wait, so does
Side B start in the middle? No,
no, no. Side B starts on the other side.
I rewound it. I mean, you know,
I didn't just do both sides on one side.
I, you know, I... I don't like
when the program repeats on both sides.
I don't like that either. repeats on both sides. I don't like that either.
I do sometimes.
It makes me want to vape so hard.
Wait a minute.
Hold on.
I noticed that on your photocopy.
It's numbered.
So that's just like the person's.
That was the person's number.
Their edition.
Don't disclose it.
Don't disclose it.
Because then they'll trace it back and I'll get sued.
Oh, man. That's's pretty good It's number 69
You wish
Oh my god
You know how much money
This would be worth
If it was a bootleg of number 69
So what do you
For $20
What are you playing on here
It's the ace
Wait recorded in May of 2015
This
This isn't sold out
Hold on
It's gotta be sold out.
You didn't even check?
You're just guessing?
With that one, I did.
No, no, I didn't check, okay?
I didn't check.
You guys are blowing my cover.
Thanks a lot.
Let me look this up.
Let me bing these turds.
You're going to bing these turds?
I'm going to bing these turds.
Where's my water?
Does Vitrine have a website?
John, no, they don't.
I don't think they have a website.
John, what you did was illegal.
Yeah, so?
It's very illegal. Hold on. Whoa, whoa, whoa.
I think I found it.
If good taste is a crime, then guilty
is charged.
I'm going to see if I can
buy it from...
What is it called? Guilty is charged.
Discogs?
God, man, these Line 6 pedals are like the heaviest pedals ever made
Feel how heavy that is
Do you even lift bro

Sorry my
My wifis are so slow.
I loaned some of my
Wi-Fi to my neighbor
so she could check
her email today

them back yet.
This is the kind where
you can pull the pedal
out of here.
My neighbor just keeps
my neighbor.
Let me tell you about
my neighbor.
She just keeps
ramming me with bandwidth.
Just constantly
ramming me with bandwidth.
Is it good or bad?
I hate it.
So wait, doesn't that give you more bandwidth?
No, my internet's so slow,
she keeps ramming me with bandwidth.
This is the person who doesn't completely understand
what bandwidth is.
And thinks it's bad for your Wi-Fi.
My DSL, before she moved in my bandwidth
was great my neighbor moved in she's just ramming me with bandwidth i'm loaded with it
i can't even read an email i got so much bandwidth john paul i think you're the first person to vape
in the tabs out studios well what's wrong with that? I guess I'm a pioneer. I can drive a tanker through my bandwidth.
All right, here's something off of a bootlegged copy
of a possibly still available cassette
by Heinz Hopp.
Heinz Hopp, poor guy sitting there.
I just want to feed my kids.
If we had sold one more cassette, I'm sorry,
but we can't afford the operation.
It's not Heinz Hopp. That's the name of the project, I'm sorry, but we can't afford the operation. It's not a...
That's the name of the project.
I'm sorry, Berger.
We were going to get your new knees, but we need to sell one more cassette tap.
Put someone in America bootleg number 26 out of 100.
I shouldn't even be laughing.
This is bad.
Play the tape.
Took me two hours to download the damn thing.
So I ran with bandwidth.
I guess sometimes you're rammed
with bandwidth, but other times you were
burned with bandwidth or something.
Are we going?
Oh, it's playing now? I'm sorry. Thank you. so
so Thank you. I'm sorry. I'm sorry. I'm sorry. © BF-WATCH TV 2021 Oh, my God! I'm sorry. Thank you. I'm sorry. The End yeah that was tight i wonder if the original is that good uh it's honestly probably better
i loved how like i just assumed it was a black and white cover because yours is just like
like black and white it's black on like baby blue paper well yeah i assumed it was a black and white cover because yours is just like It's not black and white, it's black on
baby blue paper.
I assumed it was a one color thing, but the original
is a full color cover.
I don't have a full color
copier at home. I don't have a black and white copier
at home.
Who were you saying was in that?
It's Matthias Andersen from Arvin Mio
who did Release the Bats
and I forget the name of his labelio, who did Release the Bats.
And I forget the name of his label now.
I remember Release the Bats from back in the day.
And then Daniel Hansen from Sewer Election.
Sewer Election.
I love, I'm looking at his other projects.
His other project, you got to go into the Rock and Slovak for the other projects.

It's the forbidden savory.
I like that.
Connor Waldman.
Dude, I've never come across before.
He's never been to my bathroom.
Never been to my bathroom or any other room in my house.
I feel like that's like a...
Am I making a Cheers reference to when Cliff was on Jeopardy?
You know what I like?
I like it when I'm introduced...
A nice warm day and a cold glass of lemonade.
I like when I'm introduced to a new label,
spanking new label,
with somebody I've never heard before,
and I like both a whole lot.
I like this label's aesthetic.
It's really cool.
This label, City State Tapes.
Yeah, there's a tape right behind you.
Describe, Dave, grab the third one.
Wait, you probably only have the one.
Yeah, I think we each got one.
That shelf right there.
Do you see the green one next to the...
Yeah.
Show those to John.
Oh, shit, I have a shedding LP.
Nice.
Yeah.
That shedding tape is fucking really good.
Nice.
But explain the layout.
Are these the first three releases on City State?
What do you mean?
Were these three releases the first three releases?
I think so, yeah.
Tight start.
I like it.
I like their catalog numbering system, too.
They do one, and then they do two and three.
It's classic.
They do CST version 1 do two and three. It's classic. You can't go wrong with it.
CST version 1.3
for this tape. V1.3.
So it's like, I bet that one's version
1.2. It is. You're correct.
And describe them a little bit.
They do, um,
I don't know how to describe this. The cover is
like, just a noun.
It looks like a Pantone sample almost.
Yeah, that's a good way of describing it.
It's kind of like, it's cropped out,
but like the border's really thin,
like a really thin white border on the cover.
With a flooded rectangle.
Of purple.
And then the other one's all green,
and then the other one was like all red
or something like that.
There might have been four of them.
I can't remember now.
And then just simple text on that square
with the artist and title and the catalog number.
And then also what's on side A and side B
with really weird spacing with the titles and stuff.
And then the color on the cover on that block
is like the text.
It correlates for the rest of the tape.
And they all pick a color.
They started off with some classic colors.
I feel like they should have thrown in some oddball ones. You don't want to blow through your classics. tape and they all pick a they all pick a color they started off with some classic colors i feel
like they should have thrown in some oddball ones you don't want to blow through your classics your
red your green your blues right away yeah you know i feel the same way you're talking about
this label i feel about what is this label called never anything we just got these three tapes in
the mail i think like two days ago or so those are really good looking yeah they look really nice
it's i like a label that like
a lot of
you know, there's a new tape. You know what they say.
A new tape label is born every day.
No, you did not grab
one of those. You were going to and you put it back.
And I pounced. You did.
But I like when a label starts off and
it's got a nice, you know, it's thought out
good stuff.
Yeah. You know, it looks nice.
You pick some good stuff.
And like you said, you never heard of this stuff before.
Right.
I like not knowing what it's going to be at all.
I do too.
I like all the slick stuff.
Another nice touch for the City State tapes,
they don't do any imprinting or, you know, labels on the shell,
like traditional labels on the shell,
but they do this
little rectangle above the
tape window that is just a solid
rectangle.
Now, when John Powell
bootlegs these later on, they will not
look nearly as nice.
They're all going to be black and white.
They're all going to be black and white.
I'll use a different color piece of paper for you.
Now you're thinking.
Screw you guys for judging me.
You know what else I like about this?
The all-be-on-C-130s.
What else do you like about it?
There's a lot of really nice touches about this.
I want to talk about this a little bit more.
All right, let's do it.
So on the front, you have the flood of, you know,
whatever color that they choose.
Yeah, I like how John said, like, a Pantone sample.
Yeah, kind of like a Pantone sample.
I see what you're saying.
I'm smart.
But then, so, and it's cropped out
with a really thin margin around
a really thin border around it.
A white border.
You turn it on its spine
and it's all white
but it has a really thin border of purple
on either side.
And then you flank it around again
to the third panel
and it's just all solid.
It's all flooded.
No, it's nice. It's beautiful.
Yeah, really nice.
Yeah, I like it.
City-state, starting off really nice.
You did a lot with one thing.
It's like you didn't let the bandwidth get in your way.
You don't want to get clogged up with too much goddamn bandwidth.
Goddamn it, my nephew came over.
He's a computer whiz.
He's bringing all his bandwidth.
Now, when he he goes
back to ohio to live with his dad now i gotta i gotta stay he says uncle charlie can you save all
my bandwidth and put in the like i got space for all your bandwidth he's clogging he's clogging up
the place i got important files i got my old trophies from high school go tigers now i got
your bandwidth j Jesus Christ.
The kid, the kid does nothing but smoke pot.
He sits there and he vapes all night long.
Yeah, I know what vaping is.
I see you texting.
I know what the banana picture means.
It means you're getting stuff with your dick done.
Connor Waldman.
Now John's vaping.
Off of Brass Show.
Here we go. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. I'm going to go to the right. so Thank you. Thank you. I'm going to go to the other side. Thank you. Thank you. Connor Weldman.
Connor what?
Connor... Waldman.
What Waldman?
Connor...
Steed.
Shedding and S. Soltal
and then Connor Waldman,
Introvert and Exactacube are the tapes.
Oh, the first release was CST-01 and then CST-V1.1.
Interesting.
That's weird.
So it starts with one and then updates.
Wait.
1.1, 1.2, 1.3.
There's 01, 1.1. This one doesn't say anything. 1.3, 1.2, 1.3. There's 0-1, 1.1.
This one doesn't say anything.
1.3 and 1.5.
How do numbers work?
How do numbers work?
I don't know, but
City-State, you guys are off to a good start.
How do
airplanes stay in the air?
I don't think anyone knows. I feel like it's one of those things that
if we question it, they'll all just fall out of the sky.
Yeah, don't question it too much. Everyone's like, no, they're up there.
They're doing good. They're doing just fine.
You need any peanuts? Mike, did you take
your greenies? I didn't take my
greenies today. I'm off the greens.
Well, you need to get back on them.
I'm only doing the yellows now.
Well, you know, I know you think
you don't need the greens, but I kind of feel like
you should go. You know, when you go to the pharmacy to get your prescription
and they ask you what you need and you say the yellow ones?
They need more information.
They always need more information than that.
I need my yellow ones because I'm not taking the green ones anymore.
It's okay.
Everything's fine.
Everything's all right.
It's my turn.
I'm going to play a tape.
You want your blankie?
By John Powell.
This is something you probably have.
A cop fetish.
What?
You have a cop fetish? I? You have a cop fetish?
I don't have a cop fetish.
No, I could see you getting really into cops.
No.
Like, up all night just wearing, like, what kind of underwear do you wear?
I imagine they're, like, boxer briefs, but super small.
Like, a size too small.
No, right now I have on regular boxers.
Regular boxers?
Yeah, we're regular boxers.
Regular boxers?
Stand up.
All right, here, watch.
With those pants?
Yeah, I look regular. Back up. Back up. Back up. All the watch. With those pants? Yeah, I look regular.
Back up.
Back up.
Back up.
All the way.
I can't.
I have my headphones on.
Take them off.
Back up.
There's no way that man has regular boxers on.
Yeah.
They're not getting all bunched all up.
John's got regular boxers on.
You ride those things low, too, huh?
No, they're regular boxers, and they're comfortable, okay?
Anyway, sitting around in your boxers watching YouTube videos,
you just YouTube just the word cop,
and you just watch whatever comes up.
I imagine you do that.
I don't.
I don't even own a computer.
That's such a weird, specific thing to do that Mike must do that.
That's not that specific.
It is really specific.
No, there's other specific things.
You can get more specific than that.
Just YouTubing videos of cop.
Cop.
Cop fetish.
A tape called Trans-Turonic Waste on Lurker Bias.
This is Lurker Bias number 21,
though I don't think I've ever heard of this label before.
They sent us three tapes.
This is another label that seems to have a general look.
These spines with the...
The look of a general.
The look of a general, yeah.
It's like just General Lee on the cover of every single one.
I think, personally, they should change it.
But these tapes look tight.
They're all black and white, and then they do a little stamping.
They stamp on the shell.
Though this one is stamped on the B side on a label,
and on the A side is another label.
I got a feeling they tried to stamp that
white shell and they fucked up.
So they covered it up with the label.
Maybe we can see through it if we hold it up to the light.
Hold it up to the light.
What do you got?
This is what you call an experiment.
Where's the lemon juice?
This is what we call in the scientific
community an experiment. Let's put some lemon juice on here what we call in the scientific community an experiment.
Let's put some lemon juice on here, and I think we can decode the message.
This is a project by someone named Jeff Williams.
I couldn't really find too much else about this Jeff Williams character.
This is probably a hard name to Google.
No, I mean like, you know, on Discogs.
This is the only tape on Discogs that this particular Jeff Williams has put out.
Oh, trust me, there's plenty of Jeff Williams on your LinkedIn's, on your Tinder's, on all the social media platforms.
Joe B really likes when it's hard to Google something.
Yeah, like a project name.
He likes a project name like Pepsi.
I just think he's really bad at using search engines.
Oh, in addition to him. Well, maybe that is why, because he's really bad at using search engines oh in addition to
him well maybe that is why because he is really bad at googling stuff and like i don't even
understand how you're he's also bad at just like typing stuff in you tell him like you know like
type in like you know uh rick santorum falls downstairs and he just starts like type in like
rick s and then he just like smashes the keys and he's like it'll figure it out and he just starts like typing like Rick S and then he just like smashes the keys and he's like
it'll figure it out.
And he's like
just type it in.
It's not going to be that long.
He's horrible at Googling though.
Remember when we got
French fries
what was it
one or two podcasts ago
and he just
took a handful of fries
and threw them on top
of the keys on his laptop
and started eating them.
It was so disgusting.
And he makes fun of
my laptop and he didn't even like it wasn't even like he was trying to do a goof or something
no he's just living it raw that's just how he does it john paul what do you do that you were
telling me earlier that when you make love you i was telling you no such thing john paul he was
like well he's like you know what they say about john paul man dave do you have any like sexy music
sexy time music you can put in the background?
There's no sexy time music.
I was not talking about any sexy time.
Give me a pinch of reverb.
Is this why you guys brought me here?
Give me a pinch of reverb.
So John Pyle was like, you know what the ladies say?
Making love to John Pyle is like a fine wine.
Sometime it takes a little bit for me to be good.
And it gets described really weird.
People use really weird terms to describe how I do it.
None of this ever happened.
It smells like a tennis ball.
Yeah.
Oh, he tasted like a rusty pine cone.
All right, let's get into this cop fetish tape.
Speaking of cop fetishes, let's get into this cop fetish tape.
Trans-Saranic Waste, Lurker Bias, number 21.
It's a C-32.
Here we go. Thank you. I'm going to go ahead and do it. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. I'm sorry. Thank you. I love Hillbilly Noise.
Do it. Cop Fetish.
That was pretty good.
Pretty good. I was expecting some real
harsh, percussive stuff,
and that was not what that was.
Y'all, there's possum bloods
playing down at the Tickly Pickle.
Possum blood's pretty good. Possum blood's playing down
at the Tickly Pickle this week. I think we should go.
Two dollar bullets.
I love Hillbilly Noise.
They do a split with Bloodworm, right?
Yeah, man.
Johnny, you like Hillbilly Noise?
Yep.
I remember.
You know, I was at all five Knucklehead Fests.
Yep.
I saw Critterbone every time.
Are you being Hank Hill right now?
You like that show?
You like, uh...
He's a Hillbilly Noise fan, whoever he's doing right now.
I love cartoons like that.
Hank Hillbilly Noise.
Hank Hillbilly Noise. Don't have a couch right now. I love cartoons like that. And Killbilly Noise. And Killbilly Noise.
Don't have a couch, man.
Don't have a couch, dude.
Don't have a couch, dude.
Don't have a couch, dude.
No, boy.
Darn.
Time to treat your medicine, boy.
Darn.
Cow or bungee.
Cow or bungee.
All right, whose turn is it?
Who's got some good Hillbilly Noise?
I think it's my turn, isn't it?
You got some good hillbilly noise for us?
Yeah, I got this new prurient, John.
A new prurient, huh?
Unmasking the insect on Zatrom, which is the dude from Enenzifalia.
It's his label.
It's distributed by Tesco.
I got a question, John.
When's the last time you saw Prurient live?
Last month. Did he storm off the stage
when he was done? No. He doesn't do that anymore?
No. Okay. Just curious.
Glad he got that out of his system.
Did you go to that show or did you just see it on YouTube?
He used to do it all the time.
Oh, really? I didn't know that.
I saw him a few times. I've never seen him do it.
He opened for Wolf Eyes at that
Vox Populis space in Philly once,
and he did it.
And he was really wet.
By the end of the show, he was like alien.
Topless and really wet and pale, too.
He was really sweaty.
Like he just came out of an egg.
He was really sweaty at this show.
Yeah?
But he didn't storm off.
He was good.
He opened for Gut Flesh.
I wonder where he goes.
Oh, tight.
Do you think he storms off to another show and there's like already another,
like a mixer and microphone set up and he just like starts right back into it.
He's just right.
He's like the bunny rabbit from house on wonderland.
He's like,
I'm late.
I'm late.
I'm late to the next gig.
He just hurries up.
That's why for a while,
like it was just feedback.
Cause it's like,
I don't have time to set up.
Put the microphone in here. Now I'm going to get all wet. for a while. It was just feedback because it's like, I don't have time to set up. Just put
the microphone in here. Now I'm going to get all wet.
Now I'm sweating because I'm so nervous I'm going to get fired.
I got the balls breathing down my neck. I got to have
two C5s out by this Wednesday.
I'm storming out.
You see him like, that's what you don't see in the middle
of the middle of a prairie show is him in
just black jeans with no shirt on running across
town.
Holding the microphone and a mixer under HR,
running.
It's like Benny Hill music.
Yeah.
Oh, we laugh.
And he, like, runs by the venue by accident.
He's like, oh, runs back.
Yeah.
You just clipped.
That's fine.
He would, too.
In the vein of prurient.
I'm clipping.
All right.
So we're going to play this tape.
So this is your last tape, John, for the night.
You started off with England wears a mask,
and you're taking that with unmasking the insect.
What are you trying to say about the English?
I don't know.
Are you calling them bugs?
No comment.
But this tape's really good. What? I'm excited know. Are you calling them bugs? No comment. But this tape's
really good. I'm excited
to play it. I'm excited to hear it.
I haven't heard any
Peruvian stuff. I'm excited just to watch you two guys
enjoy it. I'm just going to sit back and just
look at you two guys and remember this.
When I'm old, I'm going to remember this night.
So what projects are active?
Is he still doing Vatican Shadow?
Yeah, he's still doing i haven't heard
any recent vatican shadow stuff still similar yeah it got a little bit more like i feel like
a little bit more like like less of the i guess super minimal get on that mic john yeah the super
minimal stuff and got a little bit like busier but it's still pretty good i hear he did a collab with the Boston Bomber. Is that true? Like, through the mail.
Just play the tape.
Well, this looks nice.
Yeah.
I like that the label is glossy and the paper is glossy.
Yeah, and I don't know if I've ever seen a shell label, like, glossy shell labels like that.
That's nice.
Those cities say tapes have a glossy square on them, or rectangle, rather.
Yeah, but this is the whole label.
The whole label.
Well, I'm just saying that material can be old.
Look at all that ink.
It has been done before.
You've got to have a good printer.
John, this is the kind of printer you need to invest in for your bootlegs.
This was done earlier tonight.
Unless, is this one of your bootlegs?
This is not one of my bootlegs.
Let's play another John Powell bootleg.
Now John Powell is doing a prurient tape.
I would advise lawyers to contact John Powell
directly. Do not go through tabs out.
Prairian, unmasking the...
Dan's getting sleepy over there.
It's getting late. Unmasking the insect.
And how do you say the name of this label?
Zatrum? I think so, yeah.
Sounds like a fun video game. Period. Eliminate.
Eliminate.
Eliminate. I'm going to go. I'm going to go.
Eliminate.
I'm going to go.
I'm going to go.
I'm going a cellular speaker. I'm not a cellular speaker.
Cellular food.
Cellular food.
Lemonade.
Lemonade. Eliminate.
The relaxables are spinning.
The drive is spinning. The drive is spinning.
The drive is spinning. Eliminate.
Eliminate.
Coins are dropping to the spot. Atlantic City is crumbling.
Illuminate.
Go well, Atlantic City. So will Atlantic Sea
So will Atlantic Sea
So will Atlantic Sea
Coins are dropping to the flat
We have moved the city
Silent when they stop
Eliminate
Atlantic City
Eliminate. Atlantic City.
Eliminate. Eliminate.
Point of drop and move slot. Coins are dropping to the slots.
Coins are dropping to the slots.
Atlantic City is crumbling. Perient.
What was he saying about Atlantic City?
Atlantic City is crumbling.
It's true.
It's falling apart.
It was once like, you know, I remember in his heyday,
he used to take my Cadillac down to Atlantic City.
It's shitty now.
I love to visit there, though.
In the winter, it's so fun to get so cheap.
You can just go and have a nice evening there.
I just played the penny slots, played Kitty Glitter all night.
Is it literally penny slots?
Yeah, there's penny slots.
I won like $30.
Big winner.
Nice.
Good for you.
Yeah, that's the first time.
Well, other than at Sean Connolly's graduation party,
that's like the only other time I've gambled.
Wait.
You were there.
Remember we made up that game where we were rolling pool balls down the table
and we had to see who could get it close to the dot without going further.
Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah.
We started betting.
That's the only other time I've gambled in my life.
I don't believe in gambling.
That was the same night when...
I take gambles every day, John.
Every day of my life.
I wake up every day and
thank the Lord I'm alive every night every day is a gamble I'm breathing you
for your sacrifice oh no problem man thank you Freud did Dave I just want I
haven't said this yet I've known you for a long time thanks for what you did on
9-11 I don't think you should joke about that man I'm not joking I'm serious
thanks for what you don't know love you're welcome he doesn't like to brag about it but he didn't masturbate all that day and like i feel like
you really kept our nation like in high regard i think you should be i should listen there should
be a statue of dave not masturbating in every city and when you walk into a school in this country,
a public school,
there should be a mural
of Dave Doyen
not masturbating on 9-11.
Towers going down in the back
and Dave just like arms crossed
shaking his head.
Not going to do it.
Not going to happen today.
Really going to talk like that
about a first responder.
It's pretty fucked up, man.
I also want to say that you guys know that Wolf Eyes is putting out that record on Third Man Records.
Yes.
Jack White's label.
I guess they're in charge of the Third Man Records Instagram account today.
And it's pretty good.
A lot of like...
Was it like John Olsen type posts?
Yeah.
Oh, yeah.
Big time.
In a big way.
He posted one the other day. He posted a picture the other
day of Bryan Cranston from
Breaking Bad sitting in a restaurant
adjusting his coat. And the only
weird thing about the picture is his hand is
really, really small. Oh, that is from
a
Tumblr or Facebook group called Celebrities
with One Small Hand. Are you serious?
Yeah, there's a bunch of them. The Hillary Clinton ones
were really, really good.
So he didn't write, like, it didn't
say anything about, like, hand
getting smaller, trip metal getting bigger.
It didn't, in that really bad font.
Like, lime green font.
That's awesome. Alright, Dave.
Has that been another thing I missed?
Has that been another
thing that I've missed? What has been another thing that I've missed?
What has been another? Trip Metal?
No, not Trip Metal.
You missed Trip Metal.
He can't get away with it.
He hates it, by the way.
Dave hates Trip Metal.
I hate Trip Metal.
I hated it when it first became a thing, but I like it now.
Now, I used to like it a lot, and I don't like it anymore.
I have no feelings either way about Trip Metal.
Mike, we've got to start hanging out more so our
cycles align again. Okay, yeah, that's a good
idea. Alright, Dave, what do you got?
Actually, I kind of like it when they're out of alignment
because then I can razz you
and you can razz me. Constant
razzing going on. Constant razzing.
But seriously, thanks for what you
did, Dave, for our country.
Alright, what do you got?
I'm fucking joking about that.
I'm really fucked up.
I don't even want to play anything now.
Play a tape, Dave. Come on, big guy. John, back up
a little bit. Take your headphones off. Leave the room.
Dave, what's wrong? I don't like that you're joking
about that. Joking about what, Dave?
I don't like that you're joking about 9-11.
I think it's really fucked up.
No, I'm not talking about the 9-11 9-11.
I'm talking about the Benghazi 9-11.
I'm talking about the Benghazi 9-11.
That's funny.
You didn't masturbate that entire...
Well, you didn't go the entire day.
I don't want to make it sound like you went all day.
Oh, I thought you said he masturbated all day on 9-11.
No, he didn't masturbate at all.
John, in what sick world do you live in that masturbating all day is a good thing?
I don't know.
I thought it was a heroic feat.
Out of respect to those who died, he didn't masturbate until like 6 o'clock.
Oh, I see.
Right before dinner.
What do you got, Dave?
I don't think that you should be joking about this.
What do you got, Dave? I don't think that you should be joking about this. What do you got, Dave?
I got this Rin LARPing date.
But I don't really feel like talking about it now.
He's all hung up about the 9-11 thing.
Pass over here.
You guys ever go LARPing?
John Powell, you seem like a guy who would have LARPed before.
No, I never got into LARPing when I was in my, uh, when I was in
middle school. I was more into just, like...
I got into it in college. Yeah.
Like, reading the book. I liked reading the books about
the, uh,
the monsters and different levels and stuff,
but I didn't have any friends to LARP with,
so I just, uh... So you would have LARPed?
If I had friends, oh, I definitely would have, yeah.
With, like, the foam, uh, weapons
and stuff? Nah, they didn't have that back then. I mean, we're talking about, like, the 90s, you know? foam weapons and stuff? No, they didn't have that back then.
We're talking about the 90s.
They didn't have foam back then.
No, there was a foam shortage.
They just used ping pong balls.
They were in Bosnia, so we would have used wooden swords or something.
Don't bring up Bosnia, because that was a period when Dave didn't stop masturbating.
He touched himself all day long.
Damn it.
All right, Bry Rin Larping.
Is this the guy?
Is this
someone's name, Rin Larping?
Probably.
I don't know.
He's so upset.
John Powell, if you were to bootleg this tape,
it being an O-card,
what would you do? Would you just have a
flimsy 20-pound bond O-card?
I would go and I would
unglue it and I would copy it
and then I would re-glue the original
like nothing happened.
Wait, I wouldn't bootleg. I don't have a bootlegger.
Gotcha.
He's already said too much. Book him, Dave.
Boo!
Alright, well let's get into this
Rin Larpin tape on...
Additions Littlefield. Is this like a sub-label of Full Spectrum? all right well let's get into this rin larping tape on uh noise prank additions littlefield is
this like a sub label of full spectrum what is additions littlefield it's not like an it's not
like a series of tapes on full spectrum it's its own label no it is on full spectrum but i think
it's like uh yeah it's like a like a series a series yeah so yeah. So Additions Littlefield
is not a label. It's not like a sub-label.
Right. You're right.
You know what I really like about
this tape that I didn't get to mention?
What?
You were joking about naughty things.
Can I see it? Yes.
This is like a prison shell kind of tape.
And there's
some... I guess it's like a prison shell kind of tape. And there's some...
I guess it's like a rusty kind of green colored print on there.
But if you look...
You know Rusty Green?
Rusty Green was the original...
He used to play the pacemaker in Critterbone.
The Additions Littlefield logo is on the A side of the tape.
Yeah.
And the Full Spectrum is on the B side of the tape. But they're the full spectrum is on the B side of the tape,
but they're perfectly aligned.
Like they're birth circle logos,
and if you look at them...
They're birth circle logos?
They're birth circle logos.
Oh, my God.
You see that?
That's really hard to read.
Glad you like it, John.
Thanks.
Why don't you start talking
about fucking 9-11 again?
No, I mean, it looks good.
Ram me with bandwidth.
Ram me with bandwidth about 9-11 shit.
I didn't mean it like a bad way.
It's just, it's tough to read.
That's all.
Wait, was Littlefield,
oh, Littlefield was the name of a tape by Andrew Weathers.
Wait, it was the name of the, what?
The Dinosaur in Land Before Time.
Who, Andrew Weathers?
Andrew Weathers, the Dinosaur in Land Before Time? Who, Andrew Weathers? Andrew Weathers, the Dinosaur in Land Before Time.
I have no clue what's going on at this point.
He was the smartest dinosaur that ever lived.
Because none of the other dinosaurs had names.
And he had a full name.
He was the one who said,
Guys, these square-shaped eggs are just not working out.
We need to be laying some eggs that come out like normal.
Instead of tearing our anuses off.
Tearing our damn anuses off with these square eggs.
These square eggs.
Those sharp edges are tough on your anus.
Where do you think an egg comes from?
Your butt Are you talking about putting them in?
I'm talking about having them up there
Alright, I'm in this tape
I'm trying to find out what Littlefield is
I can't figure it out
It might be a label I think it's a label All right, I'm in this tape. I'm trying to find out what Littlefield is. I can't figure it out.
It might be a label.
It might be... You know what?
I think it's a label.
The store comes down.
He eats it.
You shit out a cube egg.
The store comes down and eats it
and makes it into a regular egg.
All right, let's get into this.
Oh, wow, Dave.
That thing with the imprint is pretty cool.
It is, right?
I wouldn't say it's perfectly aligned.
It's a little bit off.
Is it?
It's probably National Audio Company's fault.
No, wait.
It's awesome because the F is curved,
and the curve matches up perfectly with the circle on the other side.
It's pretty.
All right, let's do this.
Rin LARPing. © BF-WATCH TV 2021 Thank you. Thank you. © BF-WATCH TV 2021 Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. © transcriptF-WATCH TV 2021 © transcriptF-WATCH TV 2021 Thank you. © BF-WATCH TV 2021 © transcript Emily Beynon I'm going from here. I don't want your laugh. Michael. Michael.
You need to straighten out your laugh.
Who was that?
That we just played?
That I just did. Wren Larping.
Michael.
Michael, you need to straighten out your laugh.
James Van Der Beek.
Locke from Lost.
I was going for Dr. Phil, but.
No, I thought it was Locke from Lost.
He was like, Michael, you need to stay out the hatch and straighten up your laugh.
Give me back my son.
Michael, put in the numbers.
Whoa.
That was a bad show.
What was?
That had a really bad ending.
Lost.
Oh, my God.
I could never get into it.
No, I got into it, but it got bad.
I don't know.
And I was so invested in it that I hung on until the end.
I've actually only ever seen the last episode,
and I think that made it so I could never...
Why would you only see the last episode?
I don't know.
That was at a time when I was just not into...
With Breaking Bad, I hated it on that show for so long,
and I even read about the final episode
so I could spoil it for people.
Then I got sucked into the show and completely
regretted the fact that I
knew that it was going to happen.
Good.
I still love the show.
See that framed picture over there? That's John Pyle's face when people watch Lost.
He's like, oh, come on, guys.
Come on.
Come on.
Take a picture of that.
Fucking Lost.
Fucking TV hipsters.
Nobody even vapes on it.
Somebody should vape on Lost.
Don't watch Lost, John, because it'll only disappoint you.
I don't plan on watching Lost.
Good.
I would say, yeah, at this point in 2015,
you don't watch Lost.
No.
You'll go back and watch Lost.
Alright.
Wren LARPing.
Stratum cassette on Audition's Littlefield.
I feel like everything's getting louder.
Is everything getting louder, or is the room getting quieter?
I think you're just tired.
I'm freaking out.
I like when Dave freaks out.
Are you ready to end this?
Is this the last one?
It's the last tape.
All right.
Well, thanks to Matt.
We'll do all that after I talk about this tape a little bit.
I thought we were cutting it off.
No.
I'm still going to play the tape.
Yeah, I bet.
What, are you going to bring up 9-11 again?
No.
Well, you think with this patriotic piece of shit out here,
I'm going to do that to my country, Dave?
Never.
Look at this.
Does anybody have a barcode scanner?
No.
This is a tape by
hashtag TCOT.
I think I might have one in my phone.
In the phone?
Whoa, let's see if it does anything.
Yeah, let's scan this.
You guys know what hashtag TCOT stands for?
No.
Are you on the Twittersphere, John? No. You're not on the Tw stands for? No. Are you on the Twitter sphere, John?
No.
You're not on the Twitter sphere?
No.
You should get on there.
Dave's scanning the barcode right now.
I don't want Twitter.
The cover of this tape is an American flag,
but it's like a barcode.
That really makes you think.
That's like a Rycop stencil.
It just really makes you think.
What is it, Dave?
You got something?
You got a read on that.
A minute.
Hashtag T-C-O-T.
Top conservatives on Twitter.
That's what that stands for.
So you click on that, and then you read.
You're in Coulter.
You're Drudge.
I'm product searching it right now.
Why is Drudge so bad looking?
What are you talking about?
That's like the perfect looking website. You can't do such fine
investigative journalism and be good looking.
Yeah, and get loaded down with bandwidth.
Have bandwidth rammed up your ass.
This is like Huffington Post or something.
Ramming bandwidth up your ass.
This was released on, this is a self-titled tape
on Northern Spy. Hey Dave,
it's Northern Spy number 68.
Northern Spy number 68.
Funny number.
No.
It's a duo of John Darnielle from the Mountain Goats
and music journalist Christopher Weingarten.
Two guys on Twitter.
They both got Twitter.
They're on Twitter a lot. They do a lot of
tweeting. I think that's where
the hashtag joke comes from. They both think that's funny
because they're on the Twitter. Barcode did not
return any results. It would have been good
if it was for this
tape. It's really expensive to get
a barcode, I think. Is it? Yeah.
How much does it cost you to get? Let's say I want to get one
barcode. I think it's like $3,000 or $5,000
or something. $5,000 for one barcode?
To register it.
I'll just cut one off something else.
At least last time I checked.
I don't know if it's still true.
That doesn't sound like it's true at all,
what you're saying about barcodes.
I bet it is.
I feel like it's almost nothing.
If you're getting a record press or something,
and they're going to throw the barcode on there, I don't think...
These days, purchasing
and maintaining UPC prefix
from the GS1
can be quite expensive. The cost can range
from $250 up to $10,500
for barcodes, depending on how
much you need.
So starting at $250.
What are you reading this? Drudge? Are you getting this off
Drudge? I'm getting this off Drudge?
I'm on buybarcode.com slash how much does
a UPC barcode cost?
Are you really?
Yeah.
Okay.
But this came out
on Northern Spy
on like cassette store day.
That just happened.
Buy UPC barcodes.
$199 each.
What is this? I'm going to click on that. We. Buy UPC barcodes. $1.99 each. What is this?
I'm going to click on that.
Well, we got to buy a barcode first.
Dongs and boobs.
You're getting loaded down with bandwidth, aren't you?
I know.
You're getting the porn.
Ramming with bandwidth.
The internet just porn pranked Dave.
Oh, there's smoke coming out of his computer.
I bet we will call 911 for that fire.
Now that it affects you.
Never forget.
Probably loaded with antivirus.
There's going to be so much malware on that machine.
You're not going to know heads or tails.
I like the little elephant.
The little GOP elephant on the spine.
That's like all that's on the spine.
It's pretty cute.
It is pretty cute.
It's adorable.
It's adorable.
I think it's adorable.
You think it's adorable?
I think it's adorable. The elephant or's adorable? I think it's durable.
The elephant or the tape?
So we'll play cut off this, take her out.
Dan's getting sleepy over there.
I'm done, man.
I'm so done with this shit.
Dave's done with this shit.
John Pyle's right.
Is your vape juice all gone?
No, I still got plenty left.
You're the weirdest dude, man.
How many hits do you get out of one canister?
I don't know.
How many? It doesn get out of one canister? I don't know. How many...
It doesn't say on the package?
How many hits do you get out of one canister of vape?
You know, it's not like that, you guys.
What's it like?
I don't know.
You guys wouldn't understand.
What is in the vape pen?
What is it?
It's e-juice.
Yeah, it's e-juice.
What is e-juice?
Are you getting high from it or anything?
It's nicotine.
Just nicotine water
uh cellulose i think it's the weirdest thing i remember nothing nothing bad though
nothing other than nicotine nicotine's bad yeah nicotine's bad but other than that is it
specifically like do people use these things just so they don't smoke cigarettes anymore
i mean i don't know that's why i use it Yeah. Do other people use it just because it's like they vape?
I mean, yeah.
You can get it without any nicotine in it.
People just want to vape.
They want to, you know, breathe in flavorful steam.
That's so weird to me.
I don't want to talk about it because I'm ruining my reputation right now.
You're vaping.
People are going to be like, they're not going to know me as, you know.
I used to think John Powell knew about vaping.
As an artist, they're going to know me as a guy that vapes,
and I'm going to get made fun of for this.
So thanks, guys.
I like how John Powell thinks anyone has made it this far into the podcast.
Like, if anyone made it, like, almost to here,
they turned it off when we were talking about Dave not masturbating on 9-11.
John, this is what happens.
We play people's tapes.
Those specific people fast forward to the part
where we talk about them, and then that's it.
And the cycle continues.
But, you know, people keep sending us tapes
and it gives me something to do.
Nobody cares about what we do.
I don't know.
I'm a little anxious, so.
