Starting point is 00:02:07 Just want to shout out to Andrew Callahan, Channel 5 News. Dear Kelly, the new documentary that has been self-produced, directed, and funded by Channel 5 and Andrew's media company. Go check that episode out Tuesday. The Tuesday Info March. A lot of positive feedback about that conversation. I enjoyed that interview. Yeah, I asked some of our listeners ahead of time. I just sent them a quick note, like, hey, you know, I know we don't normally talk about politics,
Starting point is 00:02:32 but if I was to have an interesting conversation, not specifically bashing one, you know, politician or another, but just about the, you know, how people get... The landscape. The landscape and how people, you you know fall into extremism and you know kind of the closely there the hotly divided country that we have right now would you be interested in that conversation and most people said yes and a few people said and not really interested in all that but all the pot the feedback was positive and they said Andrew did a good job we did a good job
Starting point is 00:02:59 of keeping away from the bashing and just having a conversation about the nature of our culture in 2025 so please go listen to that episode and then check out Andrew's documentary You can go to his patreon page unlock that dear Kelly support independent journalism for sure for sure for sure okay the New Orleans Super Bowl right around the corner of Chrissy the football football team against another football team. Can't wait. Super excited. Taylor Swift's team versus the people who shoot each other after they win.
Starting point is 00:03:29 So it's the Eagles versus the Chiefs. The Chiefs in the Super Bowl for the third time in as many years. Could they do it? Could they be the only team in history to win three Super Bowls in a row? No one knows and very few fucking care. But I will say this, it is now, it is now the least expensive Super Bowl ticket in a decade. I saw that.
Starting point is 00:03:53 Inflation adjusted in a decade. So prices are dropping out. The bottom is falling out of the prices. I just looked, you can now get a ticket for $2,300, not bad seats. I would never pay $2,300 to see a sports event. I almost paid $4,000 to go see the Cubs win the World Series, but that's the Cubs winning the World Series. Sorry, that wasn't a bomb. That was just my phone. I do. It's now part of the show. Blue and my phone dropping on the floor and make it in this echo chamber. I don't
Starting point is 00:04:24 know what it is about this table. I got to figure it out. Maybe I should have bought an actual table that wasn't $32 on Wayfair. No offense against Wayfair. Wayfair is great. They've all gotten some good stuff in there. But it was really heavy. I felt like, oh, when you look and it says it weighs 62 pounds, I thought to myself, great, it's solid piece of wood. It is absolutely hollow in every sense of the word. And so, everything that happens in this house now gets echoed through the table into the microphones. I think the thought part is solid.
Starting point is 00:04:51 So sorry, yeah. There you go. There's a little annoyance for you in your morning drive there. But that is interesting and… I know. I was thinking about that this morning when I saw that too. I was wondering if the fact that it's in New Orleans has anything to do with it. I don't know. I wonder why. I think you're being, I think you're on to something. I don't know.
Starting point is 00:05:12 Last year, Las Vegas ticket prices were through the roof, almost double. Right. The cheapest ticket was about $5,000. And some experts that I read this morning said New Orleans has a lot to do with it because New Orleans, first of all, has far fewer hotel rooms. So the hotel rooms are terribly expensive. Oh, right. I can see that. The cost to travel down there is more expensive, the cost to travel and stay there. And then some people think that New Orleans just had a terrible incident occur. Maybe some people
Starting point is 00:05:40 are shying away from going to New Orleans specifically. Uh, and then some people speculated Trump announced he's going to go to the game. And some people speculated that that is not a positive for ticket sales. That is a negative, not because people don't like Trump. That might be the truth too, but because Trump has been a target, uh, and they worry about safety, who knows of any of that? Sure. It's all speculation. I'm sure.
Starting point is 00:06:02 And I love New Orleans. It's one of my favorite towns. Maybe me too. By the way. By the way, loved it. Astrid, not the biggest fan of it. I can't wear sandals in New Orleans because of the New Orleans soup, the street soup. You don't want to have anything to do with that. So not my favorite footwear city, but I love it. I think it's a beautiful city. I've been going for years. I've got friends that live there. And the people are nice. And listen, Bourbon Street is not the street I go down at my age. No.
Starting point is 00:06:30 It's just not. I mean, you go down just to see shit, but- Yeah, there's so many other parts. Oh yeah. It's like, that is- Look at that soul. Bourbon Street is like the cheesecake factory of booze streets. Do you know what I'm saying?
Starting point is 00:06:42 It's the main, yeah. Yeah, it's bright, it's shiny, it has a thousand items on the menu, you know, all of them include a shit ton of cheap alcohol that's going to give you a headache. That's what you do when you're a frat boy or you go down for the first time. Or Mardi Gras. I can see you going down Bourbon Street for Mardi Gras because of course that's where a lot of reaction happens. But that's not my favorite part of town. There are many other places in New Orleans that are just as fun and wonderful. And Frenchman Street, the garden district. I remember I went down to New Orleans for Jazz Fest and one night we went over to, I think it was Frenchman Street. Am I right about that? Am I saying that right? Is that the right street? Yeah, that's right.
Starting point is 00:07:25 And there was, you know, it's kind of a place where some retail and some houses are mixed together like most places in New Orleans down there in the district. And there were house parties going on where live music was playing out of the open windows. You just walk in and out of some of these houses. It was amazing. It was just the best. It was so much fun. And there's lots of drug, it's an alcohol down there. So at a certain part in my life, New Orleans was like, you know, that was like a Mecca.
Starting point is 00:07:53 I'd much rather go to- It's just got so much soul to me. Oh yeah. It's old. The history, the soul of it. Yeah, the music, music food, the food's incredible. They have a piano down there that's twice my age. Do you know what I'm saying? They have a piano at one of those bars that's twice as old as I am. It's been
Starting point is 00:08:09 there twice as long as I have been on earth. And yeah, it's just, there's so much going on down in New Orleans at any given time. It's a big city. It's got big city problems. You certainly have to mind your Ps and Qs down there. Like, don't take cab rides from a gypsy cab driver with a gun in his, a gun in his head. Right, learn from Uncle Brian. Learn from Uncle Brian. Take these sanctioned cabs.
Starting point is 00:08:29 Though we did get from point A to point B safely, I'm pretty sure it's because someone had a panic attack in the car and the guy was like, rather than rob you, I'm going to drop you off because I don't want to be bothered by anybody. I have these white people bothering me. I'm getting out of here. So, but the ticket price is dropping is, I think, an indication also that people are a little bit nervous about the economy. You know, like who's going to go spend $5,000 just for you and a buddy to go see, unless you're like a diehard Eagles or Chiefs fan, you can watch it on TV. Let's
Starting point is 00:09:02 all be honest. The best thing about the Super Bowl is the fucking commercials. That's what we want to see. And who's doing the halftime show? Nelly? No. Is it Kendrick Lamar? It's Kendrick Lamar. Yeah. Kendrick Lamar. Okay. All right. There you go. Yeah. I'm looking forward to that. So, yeah. Okay. Another sports related thing that I wanted to talk to you piggy front on is you see Marcus
Starting point is 00:09:27 Jordan, Michael Jordan's son got arrested for cocaine, leaving the scene of an accident, got stuck on a rail, you know, like rail ties with his Lamborghini. Yeah. Yeah. The railroad. Yeah. Yeah. His Lamborghini SUV.
Starting point is 00:09:43 Oh, it's an SUV. Oh, because why not spend an extra $50,000 on a Lamborghini? That's insane to me. Listen, I knew Michael Jordan had children, but I had no idea about any of those children. They've done a good job. Oh, you didn't. I had no idea that Marcus Jordan. Well, you don't watch The Housewives then.
Starting point is 00:10:00 Oh, The Real Housewives. He's on The Real Housewives of something? Oh yeah. Miami. He dated Larsa Pippen, who is Scottie Pippen's ex-wife. No. And it was a big deal. You know, there's a huge age difference and Michael Jordan and Scottie Pippen had a big rivalry.
Starting point is 00:10:16 So, it was kind of a big deal. Okay, wait, no, no, no, no, no, no, hold on. I grew up in the age of Michael Jordan in Chicago. Scottie Pippen and Michael Jordan were like wonder twins. They were so good with each other and for each other on the basketball court. And I realized there may have been some friction that Michael Jordan got all of the attention and Scottie Pippen was, Michael Jordan isn't Michael Jordan without Scottie Pippen, right? But his ex-wife was screwing Michael Jordan's son?
Starting point is 00:10:45 Oh yeah, they did it for like a good year, maybe longer. No way! It was all over the housewives. That's a twisted affair. Yeah. That is a twisted affair. I know. Wow, that's the kind of drama that like usurps even real housewives' drama bullshit.
Starting point is 00:10:58 Yeah, they had like a podcast together and stuff like that. They had a podcast together? Scottie Pippen's ex-wife and Michael Jordan's son? What's the age difference there? Well, she's 50. He's 36, I think. Okay, so there you go. Wow.
Starting point is 00:11:14 No shit. Yeah. Well, that's one way to get back at your... No. That's one way to get back at your ex. Yeah, he was on the show and everything. That's one way to get back at your ex. Can you imagine fucking your long time coworker slash friend's ex-wife or son?
Starting point is 00:11:31 That is unbelievable drama. Wow. Okay. So the guy is known. Well, I don't watch Real Housewives, so I would not have known this. I knew that Michael Jordan had kids, but I had no idea who any of those children were until I started reading the headlines that Marcus Jordan was arrested for cocaine. He had cocaine in his pocket and he was drunk and he fled the scene of an accident when cops were trying to pull him over and got his Lamborghini SUV stuck on a train crossing, essentially. This just befuddles me. This befuddles me to no end,
Starting point is 00:12:06 that if you can afford a Lamborghini. Lamborghini. A Lamborghini. I let you get away with it for a couple of times. Lamborghini. A Lamborghini. It's a Lamborghini. It's a Labradoodle mixed with a Lamborghini. They're delicious. You could have them for breakfast. Yes, mixed with a Lamborghini. They're delicious.
Starting point is 00:12:26 You could have them for breakfast. Yes, they're a new breed. They're so cute. They honk instead of bark. Eh, eh. The Lamborghini SUV coming in at, I don't know, half a million dollars. Oh, gotta be.
Starting point is 00:12:40 Yes, half a million fucking dollars. You can't afford a driver? You can't afford someone to get in that someone to get in that driver's seat sober. You could pay me $30 and an In-N-Out burger, and I would stay with you all night long drinking water just to make sure that you got home safely. That would be enough for me. And by the way, there's plenty of those people out there. They're called Uber drivers.
Starting point is 00:13:04 They will do it for you for very little money How you get into a car being Michael Jordan's son being a famous person yourself after getting smashed Leaving the scene of an accident cocaine in your pocket with cocaine in your pockets Do what everybody else does have somebody else drive you if you have cocaine in your pocket. That's what I did all the time. I refuse to drive if I had cocaine in my pocket. You want to know why? Because just adding insult to injury.
Starting point is 00:13:32 It's it's just stupid. It's stupid. Don't do that, Marcus. Come on. You're already fucking your best friend, co-worker, ex-wife. Like, just it doesn't your dad talk some sense into you. Doesn't that daddy or say, hey, son, don't fuck up while you're fucking up? And where did he get the lab-ra-gini SUV? Where did he get it? Is that Michael Jordan's money or is that Marcus's money?
Starting point is 00:13:59 What does Marcus do? Well, according to whatever I saw in The Housewives, he does have a lot of business ventures that he does on his own. A lot of business ventures, quote unquote. I don't know exactly. We'll find that out. Yeah, I know a million of these people. I got business ventures.
Starting point is 00:14:12 That's me. That's Brian. I got business ventures. I got a podcast. I'm an entrepreneur. I got a podcast. I'm a producer. I'm making a movie.
Starting point is 00:14:20 I'm an actor. I'm an actress. I'm in real estate. I'm in MLMs. I sell essential oils for a living, I got lots of entrepreneurial things going on. Yeah, that sounds very nebulous to me, and I know a lot of these people. Atlanta is full of people who have jobs that they never had.
Starting point is 00:14:38 Do you know what I'm saying? They will tell you, it's like, hey, what do you do? Oh man, I got a lot of irons in the fire right now. I'm a producer on this movie. I'm making this new album with a friend of mine. I got a podcast and a vodcast. I'm an influencer in the wild. I also have a talent management company. If you know, you ever want me to take 10% of your money for no reason. They have all of these job descriptions, but they do none of them. They actually do none of them. Atlanta is full of... A little bit of this and a little bit of that.
Starting point is 00:15:06 You want to live in Atlanta? Make up your own title! What the hell? You're in Atlanta. What the hell? Producer! Producer! That's it. So many people in Atlanta are producers. We're all producers. What are we producing? I don't know. It's like, this is the kingdom of the non-existent job here in Atlanta. Now, everybody seems to have money, but no one can tell you exactly what they do. Because they're renting the fancy car.
Starting point is 00:15:32 I was gonna say, or I think the rental business here in Atlanta has gotta be huge. Booming. I see- Cars, homes, jewelry, all of it. I'm sure like a lot of different places, like many different places in the United States of America, Atlanta is like the glowing metropolis full of $250,000 cars. You can be driving anywhere in Atlanta and see an extraordinarily expensive car every five minutes. It's just the way that
Starting point is 00:15:59 it works. But how do all of these people have all of this money? Where did it come from? I don't think it exists. I think you're right. I think where it exists is on the rental lot. The guy who actually bought the car and is renting it to you, that's what happens. I mean, I just was reading an article about this kid who gained like half a million followers in three months. And it was an expose that's really not surprising to anybody. The kid said he had a lot, it was his like, his Instagram was full of shots of him holding, you know, tens of thousands of dollars in cash, gold bars, gold chains, you know, million dollar shoes, driving around, labrigginis. Um, it's got a tailpipe. They're so cute. You could get them in red or yellow.
Starting point is 00:16:51 I love it. Make sure to take them for an oil change. He's got all this, like his Instagram which is full, and this kid is like 19 years old, full of multimillion, I mean, the posts themselves were worth multi-million dollars. You know what I'm saying? They just looked like they're dripping in gold. And the expose was done by like this investigative reporter, quote unquote, on Instagram to find out that this kid-
Starting point is 00:17:16 A rival. A rival. This kid had none of it. None of it was true. Yeah. All the cash was borrowed, all the shoes were rented out from someplace, the cars were not his, the plane that he claimed was his was not ... He claimed he had a private plane, but in doing the investigation, the guy realized
Starting point is 00:17:39 that the plane that he was taking a shot standing outside of was not the same plane that he was taking a shot standing inside of. It's just all manufactured. And I feel like Atlanta, while I love this city, I love it to death. And I know there's a lot of money in Atlanta, a lot of real money in Atlanta. This is a place where you can make things happen. It's a lovely city. But there's just too many $250,000 cows out there on the street for me to believe that everyone is making that kind of money. It's like a rat race. It's keeping up with the Joneses.
Starting point is 00:18:09 Everyone's got to do it. Yeah, how does it look? Yeah, how do you look? That's right. Fake it till you make it. Isn't that guy, that real estate, late night TV, real estate seminar guy, like we reviewed him one, like Joe Kwan or whatever it was. Joe Kwan, he made that up.
Starting point is 00:18:24 Look like a million dollars till you make a million dollars. And that couldn't be more the truth. Sometimes it works. Most times it doesn't. Dude, when I worked for ScamCole FM, which was also, you know, pretend like you have money and you have no... And Housewives adjacent. All of it. Yeah. It was so... It's where I realized that the housewives of Atlanta were neither housewives or lived in Atlanta and none of them had money. It was all just a facade, essentially.
Starting point is 00:18:54 No knock on NeNe Leakes. I think she's done great for herself. No, I love all of them. Yeah. But they just showed these women in fantastic and spectacular riches and almost none of it was true. And how did I know that? Because I became embedded, I got like thrown into the middle of this group of ladies who was either on the housewives or adjacent to the housewives. None of them bad human beings, all of them very nice, but you realize that it's a paper tiger, you poke it and it breaks, right? And same with the guy who ran the place, Simon Gwabadia is like the biggest paper tiger of them all. Well-
Starting point is 00:19:28 He's now getting divorced from Portia. Oh, really? Yes. Well, fill me in on that one. I do love me some Simon Gwabadia drama. You might have to watch The Housewives this spring. I can't watch Simon. The Atlanta ones.
Starting point is 00:19:40 Yeah, I can't watch Simon. Well, I mean, I don't know if he's a big part. They kicked him back to Africa, I think. They took his visa because he said he was someone else. I'll take that. Exactly. Once again. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:19:54 And then he went to... fucking phone. I think the story goes is that he said he was someone else, lied on his visa application, and then when they caught him, then he sued the government because he said that they like, you know, kicked him out on fraudulent terms or whatever. I mean, the guy has been a joke for a long time. And it doesn't surprise me that Portia has eventually caught on to this. Yes, she did. So she's back on The Housewives this season. It starts in March. So I think you should watch it, but I can also be your liaison. Be my liaison because I don't think I could swallow another episode of the another season of The Real Housewives
Starting point is 00:20:30 of Atlanta. But story, so these so this girl comes in with this guy, this guy claims to be a big time music producer that he's working on all of these albums with these people that I had never heard of. This is when you were working. When I was working there, yes. Couple nights later, we're at the bar that Simon said he owned, but never owned. We're at that bar and then this guy, so he says, let's take it back to my house, take it back to my crib. And we're like, okay, we go to his crib. It's like me, him, and this other person, his crib, there isn't even a crib on the floor. There is zero furniture in the place. And he was driving around a my-bok. And I was like, did you just move in here? He's like, nah, I've been here for about a year. I'm switching
Starting point is 00:21:15 furniture up. I'm switching furniture up. He had a blow-up mattress in the corner. It didn't look like he was switching furniture up. It looked like the furniture had never arrived ever. There hadn't been a, the rug didn't have any indentations in it. You know what I'm saying? It was just so manufactured and I was like, wow, dude, you're driving around a hundred and fifty thousand, two hundred thousand dollar car and you do not have a couch to sit on. No knock in your game. I know that's probably, you probably get, you know, lots of action that way, but it was just mysterious and magical to me about how, like, I don't know how magical thinking this all was. And who knows if the Mybok was even his or even real. Maybe he made that up on, maybe he put that nice Mercedes Benz Mybok symbol on his Toyota. Maybe that's
Starting point is 00:22:04 what happened. TCB will never pretend to on his Toyota. Maybe that's what happened. Probably. TCB will never pretend to have money because we'll probably never have any. And we're still looking for that airplane. One engine, we don't care. If it can get up a hundred feet in the air, we'll take it. Make sure you send inquiries to tcbpodcast.com. Let's take a break. We'll be back. Let me do something Brian has never done. Be brief. Follow us on Instagram at the commercial We'll be back. and your free sticker. Then watch all the videos at youtube.com slash the commercial break. And finally, share the show. It's the best gift you could give a few aging podcasters. See, Brian, that really wasn't that difficult, now was it?
Starting point is 00:22:53 You're welcome. College holds a mythic place in American culture. It's often considered the best four years of your life and hailed as a beacon of integrity and excellence. But beyond the polished campus tours, there are stories you won't find in the admissions pamphlets. The higher-ups are concerned about one thing, and that is avoiding scandal. It's no wonder that college campuses capture the nation's attention, especially in moments of upheaval. I'm Margot Gray. Each week on the Campus Files podcast,
Starting point is 00:23:27 we bring you a new story. It was the biggest academic scandal in the history of college sports and probably in the history of academia. On Campus Files, we cover everything from rigged admissions to the drama of Greek life. A chancellor having a pornographic double life is an extremely rare case.
Starting point is 00:23:46 Listen to and follow Campus Files, an Odyssey Original podcast, available now on the free Odyssey app and wherever you get your podcasts. I was playing a game with my kids the other night. Let's play a game. Sometimes we like to have a dance party. Oh, I a dance party. Right? A dance hall. Oh, I love dance parties. Yeah. And so the little game is, is that everyone picks a song and then they go up, they are on stage, quote unquote, right? And they do their dancing and then I judge the contest, right? I say, okay, you get a five for this or a 10 for that. I'm really pretty a harsh
Starting point is 00:24:19 judge. I'm like the Simon Cowell of dads. Really? Yeah. I'm like, what was that? That was awful. You sound disgusting. Sound, you sound like a dead horse. I don't sound like a British person either. What is that voice, Brian? So one of my kids was singing September, which is in the Trolls movie, you know, dancing in September, body on, dancing to remember. Yeah. So, my kid was going, body down, dancing on September, body down. Now, he's a kid. Like he mishear, you know, we have all of us misheard the lyrics.
Starting point is 00:24:54 We're just making stuff up. I don't even, you know, I don't even know who could put that sentence together in real life, let alone while he's singing it. So he's just singing what he knows. And so I tried to tell him, I said, no, the lyrics are ba-di-da, right? Boudi-da, however you say that. And I don't even know the lyrics, is it Boudi-da? I don't know.
Starting point is 00:25:12 Boudi-da? It's originally Earth, Wind and Fire, right? Yeah, that's the version we were listening to. It's in the Trolls movie. So that's why, you know, they like it. S-september. Hold on one second while we get this right. Here it is. Yeah, it's body-ya. Body-ya. Body-ya.
Starting point is 00:25:36 It's close. Yeah. Okay, body down, body-ya. And it got me thinking, what are some of the most famous misheard lyrics? Because we do this all the time. It's a pretty common thing that we hear something that's not really there because of the way or the inflection or the accent in the artist's voice. We just don't get it, right? Now it's all pretty easy because you got Spotify saying those lyrics to you. Back in the day, you would have to open up your tape case cover and get to the bottom of the lyrics. And. Back in the day, you would have to open up your tape case cover
Starting point is 00:26:05 and get to the bottom of the lyrics. And that is if the artist was generous enough to put the lyrics in there. Yeah, it wasn't always on there. That's right. Nothing pisses me off more than getting a brand new CD or tape to find out that there was zero information on the inside, except for who the fucking engineer was. I don't care. I want to know what you said in that fucking song. Yes. Yes. Thank you, Chrissy. It should be mandatory. Mandatory minimum. So let's go through some of the 40 of the top Miss Heard, 40 popular Miss Heard lyrics. Okay. What do you think? I'd love to do that and then I'll get the end. I'll give you one that's a family favorite. Oh, go. Let's start off with that one. Well, my sister when she was younger used to think
Starting point is 00:26:47 that you know that song every time you go away, you take a piece of meat with you. But she thought it said meat. Every time you go, you take a piece of meat with you? Yes. She was like why do they say that? Yes, that is Brian because he's poor. Every time he goes away, he takes some extra meat with him. That was you for like a string of months when you were doing the carnivore diet. When I was doing the carnivore diet, there was no meat was safe in my house because I was so rabidly hungry because there were zero carbs in my body. The acid was just feeding me steak. I know you have steak, bacon, all that stuff.
Starting point is 00:27:26 It was so expensive. Steak, bacon, I didn't care. If it was alive, I was killing it and eating it. And to be honest with you, I lost a bunch of weight, but I lost too much weight. Like it went quick. Yeah, you were really thin. It melted off me and it went quick.
Starting point is 00:27:40 So I went back to cream and cereal. I went back to cream and cereal after. After back to cream and cereal after my parathyroid got taken out. I figured, I'll get back to calcium. I need to build my bones back up. Okay, ready? Here we go. As stated by goodhousekeeping.com. Oh, good housekeeping. They're also the ones that gave us the Christmas list. Oh, yeah. That's right. You're right. I think we had a Harper's Bazaar one in there too. And I don't know. Anyway, here we go. Ready? Okay. Dancing Queen by Abba. We all know Dancing Queen. Feel the beat of the tangerine. I've never heard that in the lyrics. No.
Starting point is 00:28:20 And the... Is that what it is? It's the tangerine? Tambourine. Yeah. Thank you, Tina, because Good Housekeeping here didn't bother to put the real lyric in there. They're just telling us the misheard lyrics. The mis one, okay. We're going to have to figure it out on our own. All right. Losing My Religion by R.E.M. Let's pee in the corner. Let's pee in the spotlight.
Starting point is 00:28:38 No, me. I'm losing. Yeah, that's me in the corner. How did you get that one wrong? I know. What dumb-dumbs are listening to that song? By the way, I saw a video with Michael Stipe, and the guy who was doing the video played Michael the original audio that was used for losing my religion, the isolated track of his voice. And Michael Stipe started crying when he heard himself in that isolated track. And the guy was like, what's getting you so emotional about that? He's like, it's just so
Starting point is 00:29:11 raw and so emotional. Yeah. And I was so young. I realized it makes me think about how much time has passed since he's gone. Michael Stipe's getting up there in age, for sure. Do you remember, Michael Stipe's getting up there in age, for sure. Do you remember, like total side note, that REM signed the biggest record contract in history at the time. It was like $150 million for five albums with Warner Brothers music or whatever.
Starting point is 00:29:36 It was Universal Warner Brothers music. And they never had another hit song after that. They didn't. They didn't. They didn't have one hit song after that. Like it was a, it was not a good deal for Warner Brothers. Now if they bought the whole catalog, then I could understand. They're still a classic band. Yeah, of course. From Athens, Georgia. Uh, You're the one that I want. You're the one that I want. I've got shoes, they're made of plywood. Oh, I've got chills, they're multiplying. I've got chills, they're multiplying.
Starting point is 00:30:07 That's not even close. No. Who are these people who are mishearing this? Good For You by Selena Gomez, which I don't know the original song, do you? No. It says, I'm farting carrots. That can't be it, obviously. What the real lyric is, I'm 14 carrots.
Starting point is 00:30:25 14 carrots. 14 carrots. Monster by Eminem and Rihanna. It says, I'm friends with the mustard that's under my bed. But of course, the real lyric is, I'm friends with the monster that's under my bed. In sync, it's gonna be me. And people think it's, they're saying, it's gonna be me. And people think it's they're saying, it's gonna be May. May.
Starting point is 00:30:47 May. The month. I mean, I realized that in sync was not exactly, you know, they weren't, I don't know, it wasn't Shakespeare. But why would they write a lyric called, it's gonna be May? Yeah. If you just think about that for one second. Old Town Road by Lil Nas.
Starting point is 00:31:03 Oh yeah, Old Town Road. I'm gonna take my horse to the hotel room. I'm gonna ride till I can't no more. I'm in the hotel room. Actually, I think I did think it said that. I don't know what the... I'm gonna take my horse to the Old Town Road. Old Town Road, yeah. Take My Horse to the Old Town Road. Old Town Road, yeah. That was a good song. Stir It Up by Bob Marley, which is a fantastic song. Stir it up, little darling, stir it up.
Starting point is 00:31:35 People think he's saying cereal. No. Little darling, cereal. No. Yeah. I mean- How good housekeeping? Where are they getting this? I think good housekeeping is making this up on their own. Or this is an AI product. Yeah. I mean- How good housekeeping? Where are they getting this?
Starting point is 00:31:45 I think good housekeeping is making this up on their own. Yes. I think so too. Or this is an AI product. Right. Because who thinks he's saying cereal? No. He was a stoner, but I don't think he's saying, stir up your cereal.
Starting point is 00:31:55 No. I think Bob is a bit deeper than that. We will rock you by Queen. I can understand this one. Buddy, you're an old man, hard man, living on a man, gonna be a big man someday. You got mud on your face, big disgrace, kicking your cat all over the place. It's kicking your can all over the place. And I think the original lyric was actually kicking your ass all over the place, but I
Starting point is 00:32:20 think the record company said, no, no, no, no. Blowing in the Wind by Bob Dylan, the 17-minute diatribe. And my friends, my friends are blowing. These ants, my friend, are blowing in the wind. These ants are blowing in the wind. It's definitely not ants. It's coarse. These answers, my friend, are blowing through the wind. Royals by Lord. Beth Dombkowski That was a good song.
Starting point is 00:32:49 Jared Sussman Yeah, it is. You Can Call Me Bean. I don't know which part of the song this comes in, but she says, you can call me, or you can call me Green Bean. She says, you can call me Queen Bee. Beth Dombkowski Queen Bee. Yeah, that makes more sense. Jared Sussman Hold Me Close My Tiner Dancer by Elton John. Oh yeah, that's one that's been on my list. Of course. Yeah. Hold me close my Tony Danza.
Starting point is 00:33:13 That's always on the list. I guess that's not a far fetch. I mean, you know, Elton's a man with certain acquired tastes. Who doesn't like a, who doesn't, who didn't like Tony Danza in the 80s for five minutes? Tony Danza for five minutes in the 80s was just your regular old Joe guy that everyone could kind of, you know, identify with. He was the housekeeper of the house on Who's the Boss. Oh, that's right.
Starting point is 00:33:37 Yeah. I forgot that he was the housekeeper in that show. Very forward for that time. How long did Who's the Boss stay on? It was on for a long time. I mean, I remember growing up with it. It had Alyssa Milano. Oh yeah, Tony Danza.
Starting point is 00:33:50 Who was one of my first crushes. Judith Light. Judith Light, that's right. That was who played the career mom. Wasn't there a guy in there too? Danny Masterson? Why not Danny Masterson? Danny Masterson is a guy that's in jail currently.
Starting point is 00:34:04 No, yeah, he was that 70s show. I forgot, I forgot who the kid was. But Waterfalls by TLC. Go, go Jason Waterfalls. Go, go Jason Waterfalls. No. Don't go chasing. Chasing Waterfalls.
Starting point is 00:34:18 Blank Space by Taylor Swift. Got a lot of Starbucks lovers. Okay, Star-Cross lovers, obviously. Starbucks lovers. What in the good fuck is going on there? Empire State of Mind by Jay-Z and Alicia Keys. Yep. Concrete jungle, wet dream tomato. Wet dream tomato. No, where dreams are made of. I'm calling your bullshit on this, good housekeeping. I think it is an AI thing.
Starting point is 00:34:47 This must be AI, because who in the world is saying concrete jungle, wet dream tomato? It doesn't even come close to sounding like that. Baby Baby by Amy Grant, don't know that song, gonna move on. Genie in a Bottle by Christina Aguilera. Come, come, come and let me meow. Come, come, come and let me meow.
Starting point is 00:35:10 I don't even remember that part of the song. Purple Haze by Jimi Hendrix. This one is a very frequently misheard lyric. Cues excuse me while I kiss this guy. But it's a cue, excuse me while I kiss the sky. But it's Excuse me while I kiss the sky. Message in a bottle by the police. A year has passed since I broke my nose. That's funny.
Starting point is 00:35:34 A year has passed since I wrote my notes, since I wrote this note. Humans by the killers. Are we human or are we denser? Denser. D-E-N-S-E-R. What is denser? It's dancer. Denser, like dense, like thicker.
Starting point is 00:35:52 Oh, dense. So stupid. Oh, God. How about Living on a Prayer by Bon Jovi? Whoa, living on a prayer doesn't make a difference if we're naked or not. If we make it or not. I like the naked or not. Yeah, actually, I could go with that.
Starting point is 00:36:13 Last time we saw Bon Jovi, he wasn't doing so hot. Do you remember a couple years ago when we reviewed Bon Jovi doing a live concert? Yeah. And it was just like his voice was extraordinarily torn up. He couldn't hit a note to save his life. Right, no, he had a real problem. He had a real problem. So I forgive him.
Starting point is 00:36:28 I don't think I've ever apologized. I do a lot of apologizing on this show in case you're just joining us. So here's yet another apology on behalf of Brian. I'm sorry. Straight to Bon Jovi. Yeah, straight to Bon Jovi. I thought you were just being bad at singing, but apparently you had a throat issue. So there you go.
Starting point is 00:36:42 Lucy in the sky with diamonds, The girl with kaleidoscope, the girl with kaleidoscope goes by. Oh, kaleidoscope. It's the girl with the kaleidoscope eyes. Kaleidoscope, really? Yes. This is definitely AI. Why would they run this with AI like this? I mean, I guess AI is taking over the world. Bad Moon Rising by Credence. There's a bathroom on the right. There's a bathroom on the right. That's a good one.
Starting point is 00:37:18 I'm using that one next time I hear that song. Like a Virgin, McDonald. Like a virgin, touched for the 31st time. Like a virgin. The 31st time. My name is Bonnie, Bonnie Blue. Running Down a Dream by Tom Petty. Running down a drain. D-d-d-d-d-d-d. That could be my theme song for the other day. Ah, t-t-t-t-t-t-t. Some of these I don't know.
Starting point is 00:37:53 So Rock the Casbah by The Clash. Rock the cat box. Rock the cat box if you really don't. Wait, Charie don't like it. Rock the Casbah. And it's not shee don't like it, rock the Casbah. And it's not she really don't like it, it's Sheree don't like it. We're talking about Sheree along. Paradise City by Guns N' Roses.
Starting point is 00:38:15 Take me down to a very nice city where the grass is green and the girls are pretty. Take me down. It's the fucking name of the song. Paradise City. You dum-dums. Panama by Van Halen? Panama! Animal! Animal! It's the name of the fucking song!
Starting point is 00:38:35 Yes. Although I see why it's easy to get confused because of the way that he sings it. Let's see. Paradise by Coldplay, don't know that one. Smells like Teen Spirit by Nirvana. Now, if you have a muddle mouth full of rocks, then I can understand why it might be hard to understand some of your lyrics. And it wasn't like Kurt was always singing so crisp and clearly, right?
Starting point is 00:38:56 I'm a lion, I'm a vinyl, I'm a skittle, I'm a beetle. Yeah, you're right though. I think at the time when that song first came out, I did not know what he was saying. A mulatto, an albino, a mosquito, my libido. That's right. Yeah. I'm a believer by the monkeys. Then I saw her face.
Starting point is 00:39:23 Now I'm going gonna leave her. And now I saw her face, and I'm gonna leave her. That's a song for an ugly girl. Do you cherish one? Again, the name of the song. Yes, that's the, oh yeah, that's true. It's the name of the fucking song. I'm a believer.
Starting point is 00:39:43 Summer of 69 by Bryan Adams. Great song. Yeah, I loved that at the time. I got my first real sex dream. But that doesn't make sense for the next part. Botted at the five and dined. Botted at the five and dined. Blinded by the light. That's... That's a hard one. That's a hard one.
Starting point is 00:40:02 Well, yeah, wrapped up like a douche. Wrapped up like a douche, another roamer in the night, blinded by the light. But- Beth Dombkowski It's deuce. Jared Sussman It's revved up like a deuce, another runner in the night. But he clearly says douche in there. Beth Dombkowski It sounds like it. Jared Sussman It must be. I think he slyly put that in there because if you, I've listened to that song so many times for the purpose of trying to figure out if he's actually saying douche. I did this, I went through this exercise
Starting point is 00:40:30 one night high and I listened to that song, I must have been 20 times in a row. He says the word douche, even though it's douce, he says douche. Clearly he says, clearly. And one more for shits and giggles. Hold on one second. There was one more that I wanted to do here. Oh, did I lose it? I might've lost it. I have a Cyndi Lauper one. Okay, go for it. Do you know time after time where she says, and you say, go slow? My kids to this day swear she says, and you say, go slow. My kids to this day swear she says, and you say, coleslaw.
Starting point is 00:41:05 Jared Sussman And you say coleslaw. Nicole Sussman Yeah, it's whatever you hear at the time, you know? Jared Sussman Listen, this is a fun game. I played this a lot in my life. It's a fun game, miss our lyrics, and, you know, we all interpret things the way that we interpret them. And to be fair, like, artistry is artistry and lyric writing is not always straightforward. So there's a lot of people. I mean, you want a fun game? Find someone that has never read a lyric for Pearl Jam and see if they can figure out Yellow Lead Better, Black, Jeremy, Alive, any of the early works of Eddie Vedder and see if they can understand anything that he sang. I misheard those lyrics. I made them up in my head. I
Starting point is 00:41:43 loved Pearl Jam from the moment I heard them. And I made up so many lyrics to a live, even flow. Yeah, you had to. Yeah. Freezing, rather see you sleeping with a guy named Billy. It's rather see you slipping on a pillow made of concrete. Okay. All right. Let's take a break and then we'll be back.

Starting point is 00:42:58 and then we'll return to this episode of The Commercial Break. All right, well, speaking of music news, a couple of old geezer things I think I should take care of. First of all, the Eagles, I think, are in the middle of their run over there in the sphere. So I think they played 25 shows and then announced that they were doing some more shows. So I saw some footage of it.
Starting point is 00:43:23 Listen, I like the Eagles, okay. Like it's not my favorite band in the world. It's not the worst band in the world. I think Don Henley did some better work than the Eagles ever did. But anyway, I regress. To me, like I saw some of the footage, I don't know that the Eagles are the right band
Starting point is 00:43:38 to have at the Sphere. Like, okay, you can make some, you could make any imagery at the Sphere, I'm sure, for the Sphere, and people would pay to see it to any music because it's just such a marvel of technology. It really is beautiful. But I just don't think the Eagles- There's so much Hotel California.
Starting point is 00:43:55 Yeah, there's only so many Hotel California, you know, there's only so many images you can put to Hotel California before you're just stretching to make something fit there. There are so many other bands that I think would be great there. Have David Gilmore play there. Have Roger Waters do his version of The Wall, like his very faithful version of The Wall. Have him do that. And I know they gotta be talking to some of these people.
Starting point is 00:44:17 They have to be. And I would imagine that if you do something like The Wall at the Sphere, it's gotta take an immense amount of time to put all of that imagery together. But that's one I would pay to see a lot of money on. And I would take a lot of LSD. I'm just saying that right out front.
Starting point is 00:44:31 Iowaska, Pink Floyd, the wall, put a reunion together, put a reunion together for Pink Floyd, the wall, get David Gilmore and Roger Walters to stop bitching at each other. Get them in a room together and have them play that fucking wall. And that's what I would pay $5,000 to see hands down, all day of the week, wouldn't you? Danielle Pletka Yes, I would love to see that. Jared Ranere But I just don't know about the eagle. I'm sorry,
Starting point is 00:44:52 I don't mean to bash on the eagles, but you know. Danielle Pletka I know. I said the same thing because, you know, I went out there to go see the dead and that was awesome. And then the next up was the eagles. And I was like, yeah, I don't know. I don't know what they're gonna do for that. Especially compared to the Grateful Dead. And there was that, you know, the New Year's show that went down with that EDM guy. Oh yeah, Anorak, so we're gonna-
Starting point is 00:45:15 Anima. Anima, Anima. A-N-Y-M-A, however you wanna pronounce that. Listen, those visuals were stunning. I watched so many videos on that. I went down a rabbit hole and I was like, holy shit, that is so good. Those visuals were stunning. On Instagram, they were stunning. Like on this tiny little screen, they were stunning. And I can only imagine what it was like to be there. And I had never, ever in my life ever heard of this human being,
Starting point is 00:45:42 but he filled the place, I think two nights in a row. Oh yeah, he's coming back too. Oh he is? They're bringing him back. Listen, Fish, Grateful Dead, you know, Goose, Geese, Gossards, I don't know, where are all the Geese and Goose bands that are out there? All these like jam bands that have visuals and light shows as a part of the kind of the nomenclature of what goes on on and on every show. Those are the people I think that could be filling the sphere with really cool opportunities to embed those visuals
Starting point is 00:46:10 further into their fans' minds. The Eagles were never known for their visuals. I don't remember Don Henley ever being the guy who you would be like, hey, man, let's take some mushrooms and go see Don Henley. It just doesn't make sense. I don't know. To me, it doesn't make sense. you would be like, hey man, let's take some mushrooms and go see Don Henley. It just doesn't make sense. I don't know, to me it doesn't make sense. Yeah, there's some bands it just doesn't make sense for.
Starting point is 00:46:29 I'd take Skinny John Popper before I went and saw the Eagles. You know what I'm saying? Skinny John Popper, blues traveler. I would take them beforehand. And where's Dave Matthews? Why isn't he getting in on all this action? Even though he's not really known for his visuals either,
Starting point is 00:46:43 I could see Dave Matthews making something out of it, right? But I think that improv bands like Fish, it takes so much work to like hold yourself back from just going ape shit crazy like you would on any other show. But apparently the Fish Run was amazing too. So like jam bands don't like jam bands. Everybody can agree when we're on mushrooms that fish is okay.
Starting point is 00:47:06 Okay? All right? I don't care who you are. You can complain about fish all day long. Take some mushrooms, you like fish. Let me tell you a little story. I have a daughter. I have many daughters, but I have one daughter specifically.
Starting point is 00:47:20 And she's a dancer and a twirler and a gymnast and the whole nine yards. She's using her body. She's aware of herself and the way that her body moves and she's very good at gymnastics and dancing and all this other stuff. So the other day, just on a lark, I played some live version of Fire on the Mountain. Nice. And instantly, my daughter started spinning and twirling and noodling like a moron, like we all do when we hear that song because now all this, we're thrown back to 1963, topless, you know, spinning around in our funny skirts and hula hoops. It was amazing. I love that.
Starting point is 00:48:00 I played that music and it was almost- It was like instinct. It was instinct. It was like it was in her DNA to act like a fucking hippie the second I put on something hippie-ish. That's fantastic. So we're having our dance party last night and it's her turn and she says, play me sleeping with dreadheaded boys who don't have jobs and drive shitty cars without safety equipment. It's all going to shit. It's all going to hell in a handbasket. And she's like, far! She's far and she's doing the noodle. It was insane. I swear to God.
Starting point is 00:48:39 I have a video of it. She just turned into a hippie the second she heard the song. Crazy. I have a video of it. She just turned into a hippie the second she heard the song. Crazy. Ozzy Osbourne is announcing, or Sharon is announcing that Ozzy Osbourne, full stop, will have his last show at the one day music fest. That one day that it's last. Steph and I like to say farewell tour, maybe. Maybe. It's my close to last show. It's almost the last to the last. It could be the last. It's the last before the last. Listen, we heard that about Steven Tyler too.
Starting point is 00:49:10 And then I see Steven Tyler's doing a, this is really rich coming from Steven Tyler. I believe anything that helps anybody, any kind of charity that's doing any kind of good is great news. But he's got a charity called Janie's, whatever, Janie says or Janie does or Janie whatever. Based on the song, Janie's Got a Gun, a very famous song from the late 90s, early 2000s, late 90s. He now has a charity that helps young ladies in whatever capacity they help young ladies, and so he's raising money for it. So I see Steven Tyler out there with all those scarves on that damn fucking microphone twirling and whirling around all different clubs in LA, you know, with famous other people like the Robinson Brothers from Black Crows.
Starting point is 00:49:54 And I think I saw Miley Cyrus up there. And then he was doing, he was at the comedy club in LA, the comedy store. And he, the people, you know, there were comedians and then there were also musicians and he got out there and sang a few songs. I thought we got told that Aerosmith broke up because Steve and Tyler didn't have a voice anymore. And now he's out there acting like an idiot singing all these songs with everybody else. I want an explanation, full explanation from Aerosmith as to why they really broke up. Do you remember? I want to remind you of this. Not that anyone cares this much about Aerosmith anymore. I certainly don't, but I went through my Aerosmith. I think we all went through
Starting point is 00:50:29 our Aerosmith face. If you're of a certain age, you remember Pump and Pump and Pump. You remember that album. It was a big one. Every single song on that album was a runaway hit. Every single song. So, you remembered that during the pandemic, their drummer, I think Kramer is his last name, Joey Kramer, Joey Kramer got locked out of practice. Do you remember this? They were practicing for an upcoming tour and he got locked out of the practice. And there was like some kind of person standing at the door saying, no, you're not allowed in. And he was like, but I'm part of the band. And he's like, yeah, not, not anymore, dude. So he basically got told when he showed up for practice. Yeah. And they claimed that he was on the painkillers and he couldn't do the job anymore or whatever.
Starting point is 00:51:18 That's rich coming from Steven Tyler. Right. Isn't Steven Tyler the one who left a 14 year old in a burning apartment so that no one would find out she was pregnant or something like that? Do you remember that story? No, I don't remember that. It's been known that he's had lots of pill problems as well as other drugs over the years. No shame in that. There's lots of people that have addiction problems. I'm not shaming anybody with an addiction problem.
Starting point is 00:51:39 I'm saying it's a little rich that now he's got a charity that helps young women. When he wasn't doing any of that back in the day, he was impregnating young women, not helping them. And now, Aerosmith's broken up, but not really. They're broken up because of his voice, but his voice is still being used other places. There's something else going on there, and I want a full explanation right now. As well as, is this Ozzy Osbourne's really his last concert, or is Sharon just trying to sell tickets?
Starting point is 00:52:03 Yeah, both probably. Ah, here's the thing about Ozzy. Never the world's biggest Ozzy Ozborn fan. Musically. Musically. Not my thing. Black Sabbath wasn't necessarily my thing. He had that one song with that Lita Ford, remember?
Starting point is 00:52:21 You told me lies, you told me braids, as they're the man and now I feel so rain. Mama, I'm coming home. Do you remember that song? Okay. All right. He had that one song. I like some Black Sabbath stuff, but yeah, it was never in my wheelhouse to pop on. Sharon has taken control of his career. She always has been. Yes. At some point in the 70s or 80s or whenever they got married, she took over his career and she did wonderful things for the guy. She sobered him up, she straightened him out, although if anybody's ever seen any of the Osborns, the television show, I think you would have a tough time arguing that Ozzy was sober. But okay, let's make the assumption
Starting point is 00:52:59 that he's on some medication for purposes. But she took over that career and she really helped him because he was a fucking hot mess. Everybody needs a Sharon Osbourne in their life. But then Sharon has a way of making everything a little bit hyperbolic. Do you know what I'm saying? She's always blowing everything up. I think this is the fifth time that Ozzy Osbourne is going to do his last concert. He was on his last tour six years ago. He was going to make his last festival appearance three years ago. He made his last television appearance two years ago. But none of her is the last appearance. But this time, she says full stop, it's his last appearance. I doubt it. We'll see. I think this is just
Starting point is 00:53:36 ... The Eagles also have done six farewell tours and yet they have yet to say farewell. I know. I don't know why anybody says it anymore. Don't say it. Don't say it. Just say, sayonara for now. Right? We're leaving for now. World, we might be gone. Yeah. Might want to check us out again. Hey, listen, this is the commercial breaks farewell show for all I know. Yeah. Could be the commercial breaks farewell show. As a matter of fact, consider every episode from now on. Tune in to the next episode because that's our farewell. When will that happen? I don't know. Tomorrow, maybe. If I'm still around? If I'm not? I don't know! If I'm not feeling good, maybe I don't do it. This is the commercial break's absolute last show.
Starting point is 00:54:14 Forget it. We're not doing one tomorrow. Until we show up tomorrow to do yet another one. Okay? Don't say that. That's just silliness. We know you're just trying to sell tickets, Sharon. We know that Ozzy's going to show up some, you're going to have to roll him out there to pay some bills at some point. You're going to roll Ozzy out there and have him do a little thing. Guy's 78 years old. This could very well be his farewell show. Unless then you see that guy that they're still rolling out there.
Starting point is 00:54:35 What's his name? Oh, Frankie Valli. Frankie Valli? Frankie Valli is 117 years old. He is a robot. He is literally has a mechanical head and mouth and he is still going out there and singing live. Is he really singing? I don't know. I think he's got auto tune and a backing track, but I think he's trying to get some breath out of that mouth. I'm not even
Starting point is 00:55:00 sure the guy takes a full breath anymore, but you know what? They put him on a dolly and they roll him out there every night, and they stand him up. And they use a computer to make his hands move. And the guy goes out there. Like Chuck E. Cheese? Yes. The animatronic? Yes. He is Chuck E. Cheese.
Starting point is 00:55:15 That's who he is. They literally made him an electronic man. And he goes out there with his little robot wheels and he goes out there and he sings for 30 minutes. Well, they say you should always have a purpose in life that keeps you going. I don't disagree with that. And that's why I think Ozzy is not going to have his last, his final farewell show at this festival. Because I think that if you're a musician, or whatever it is you do in life, like my grandfather was 99 years old in a retirement home with a hip that wouldn't heal, colon
Starting point is 00:55:48 cancer and could barely speak any kind of English. And the guy, and he was a former FBI agent, till the day that he passed away, the day before he passed away, he asked one of the nurses to take his resume and fax it to a phone number. And they would pretend to do that. They would pretend to do that because it was giving him some kind of purpose. So listen, this might be the commercial breaks farewell show, or we, Chrissy and I, might be doing this until our 98th birthday.
Starting point is 00:56:15 Until we're in Chuck E. Cheese mode. Until we're in Chuck E. Cheese mode. Tina's got to roll us out here. Her strings. Yes. So AI is doing my voice. I'm just here going, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, till I have no teeth. Actually, you know what?
Starting point is 00:56:36 I'll always have teeth because I know that I go get them in Turkey. That's what I know. That's right. Veneers. All right. Well, will we see you tomorrow? Maybe. I don't know? I don't know. I don't know.
Starting point is 00:56:46 It's possible. It's possible. Hey, once again, I want to thank Andrew Cowan. Now I'm thinking about me doing this. It went into my retirement days. Yes. I'm getting close to retirement age. Well, I think about it. Well, retirement age back in the sixties. Now it's, you know, now you work till you're 72 or whatever it is, but yeah, we'll be down
Starting point is 00:57:15 at the villages. No doubt. Doing the show. I mean, I hear it. Listen, I heard the villages has taken a turn and I was watching a reel about people in the villages racing their golf carts. That's what they're doing, racing golf carts up and down the street. It's like a parade and some guy was driving in the wrong direction and smacked into another golf cart and the guy who was driving one of the golf carts went flying out into the street. It was like really intense and I was like, jeez, they have fun down there, but it's dangerous. They do. It can be.
Starting point is 00:57:49 Yeah, listen, could be Chrissy and I. Could be Chrissy and I. All right, thanks to Andrew Callahan. I'm going to put links in the show notes to go to his Patreon and watch the brand new directorial, independent directorial debut. Not his directorial debut, but the first one he's directed independently. Dear Kelly, I think it's a movie you must watch to have a little bit of a better understanding of why this country is so polarized,
Starting point is 00:58:10 at least for some people, why this country is so polarized, and how easy it is to get sucked into extremism. And remember, like my father-in-law says, Iiiiieeee, Brian! And also, extremes on both sides end up in the same place. Just remember that I don't know what it means But it sounds really smart.
