Finding stuff in barns with Bill and more. on this episode of The Morning Stream. Well, I just had got done feeding my chickens, water them and stuff,

and I walked back to my house, started to get my phone so I could play a video game on it. Well, I'm a cop. You're a terrorist. It's just a matter of supply and demand. Just good old-fashioned commerce, that's all. This is the morning stream. Yo, bartender, Joe Boo, needs a refill. Good morning, everybody. Welcome back to TMS.

It is morning. It is morning. It is morning. It is morning. It truly is morning. It truly is morning. It's only, I mean, as of yesterday, or if it was, this was yesterday, no, if it was the day before yesterday, it'd be 8.13 in the morning.

That's right. Because we had daylight saving switch over there business. and it sucks. So here's my theory. I got a theory. I posted this last night on Twitter and I'm going to go off again. Here's my thing. All right.

We're all sitting around waiting for governments to decide whether you keep doing the switchy or not, okay, with the daylight saving and the freaking standard time and all this Bull Schmidt. Yep. They're the ones up there undulating going, oh, we should introduce it in a bill and tack on a bunch of other shit. And, okay, I get it. I get that's what you do. We don't need to wait for them. We just do it. What are they going to do?

Big deal. So what? The government doesn't do it. That's a great mentality of just deciding as a group or as a mob, if you will, to go ahead and just do something without. Yeah. So I'm saying, screw the man. We have the power. We've told me we worked on January 6th.

I think, you know, we can do it. These are not the same. This is a non-violent, non-attempt to take over any government or hurt anybody. It's literally just stop doing it. Just, we all stop, they stop. And if you say to yourself, well, hold on, Scott, my computer and my phone automatically change. You know what you can do?

You can manually turn it the other way. I got an old watch on my wrist today that does that. I had to go in here and twist twisty and get it to the right thing. I got one of those. I like that one. Oh, yeah. It's great. It's all made out of some secret tree or some weird thing like that.

Made out of a secret tree. Something like that. But anyway, like, come on. It's on us. We don't wait for them. Take it the power back, everyone. Gotham, take your daylight saving time back. Because they clearly can't do it.

It's the easiest thing in the world for governments to decide on. It would be so easy. Now, maybe the whole rest of the world doesn't. But who cares? We do it state by state here. Arizona's already got the right idea. Except they've got the old time, which we don't like as much. We like this one.

So maybe that's a problem. That's the thing. People in the chat room have kind of gone back and forth both directions. Like, no, I want to keep daylight saving time. No, I want to keep standard time. So there's one decision that has to be made amongst the people. Right. And, you know, the people haven't been so good at making decisions and being all on one side of the other lately. Feels like it. Feels like it. Maybe what we do is we just adopt, what, GMT and just do the decimal point crap?

Like whatever it is you do over there? Like just one time is everyone's time. I forget what it's called. But it's based on the GMT thing, GMT time. The Greenwich Mean Time, really? Wait, wait. So basically we would all, you mean the plus or minus? Oh, you're talking UTC?

Where we basically, it's 8 o'clock here, it's 8 o'clock there. It's 8 o'clock on the other side of the world, et cetera. Yeah, do that. I don't think there are not too many things steep too deeply in our culture where we can't figure it out. You know what I'm saying? Because if we say, hey, it's at 9 p.m. or, or, but they won't be PMs or AMs, though. It'd be like, it's, it's 35. Okay, so we would do, yeah, we would do 23 o'clock and that sort of thing.

Yeah, but I don't even know if we would call it a clock. We'd just say, hey, it's 2,100, the show's on. And everyone knows that that means. We just don't know what it means. Yeah, yeah. I'm ready for it. I want this in my lifetime. Hurry up.

Hurry the hell up. We can't even agree. We can't even get all the states to agree on how to dole out the vaccine. Yeah. And we want the world to use one time. Apparently we did all right, though, the other night, or the other day, Thursday was it? They had a single day record of 4.5 million vaccines distributed, which was a... Oh, that's great.

That's a huge number, yeah. That's because they employed a bunch of blowdart champions, lined them all up. And basically, they would get, you know, 100 people in a line. Turn around, expose their buttocks. And then, all right, move next. Yep. Get your butts up here. Shoot the darts.

Done deal. Don't inhale, Fred. Waring, how does Fred inhale with his ass? Oh, no, not his mouth. No. I wasn't talking about the butt. I was talking about the blowdark guy. Oh, the pitcher, not the catcher.

Inhale, yes, exactly. Well, anyway, so that's my rant there. And let's see if anything comes up. It probably nothing will happen. But I saw that you guys got like 400 billion pounds of snow. What happened there? What's that about it was crazy? Yeah, we got, by our account here, I would say unofficially, we didn't go out and measure it.

We went out and shoveled three times yesterday and I went out once this morning. I'd say probably a good two feet, maybe two and a half feet. It's compressing, it's beautiful, wet, heavy snow, which is great for building snowmen. It's great for falling backwards into a truss fall into the pile of snow you just shoveled. Yeah. But it's a, yeah, but it's a beast to shovel, to lift. I put your GIF up on the screen so people are seeing you fall back into the embankment there. It's pretty good.

Yeah, Roe asked me last night in the raid that didn't happen. If my back hurt from doing that, it's like, no, actually, that was, it really was. it really was like falling onto a very soft mattress because this is the snow is so wet that 12 inches of snow compresses into about six inches of pack yeah of uh snow pack it looks comfy i love laying in snow in a coat like that oh yeah oh yeah except you got jeans on that's a dangerous proposition jeans will yeah it came basically when that was after shoveling so i was done i didn't have to stay outside any longer uh getting cold. I went inside and I made a trail of clothing, gloves, hat, jacket, pants, straight to the bedroom where I put on pajama pants and that's what I was wearing the whole rest of the night. You're like a little kid. I love it. Yeah. Totally. Just like a little trail of clothes from the back door all the way to the, uh, or the garage door all the way to the bedroom. Well, we didn't, we haven't had a storm like this, this winter at all. And we didn't get anything

while you guys were getting hit. We had a little cold temperature stuff here in the last few days, been no snow, really. Not really. A little dust in it, but weird. You guys looked out. It's funny because I thought it was going to pass right through you guys to get that. It usually does, but it circled around. Yeah, you usually get our sloppy

winter seconds. We do, exactly. It went up through Wyoming. Wyoming apparently got a ton as well. Well, those guys, they're, those bastards with their big open ranges and their cowboys and whatnot, they deserve. Right. They deserve it. Exactly. Well, all right, Dan.

news is we get a little bit more tomorrow and then it starts warming up through the whole rest of the week. Saturday will be like 60. Oh, wow. Everything we see now will probably be, will be gone by the weekend. Well, that's awesome. Very exciting. Listen to this. I've got a quick email I want to read before we get to Brian.

Oh, cool. Okay. That's a brief one. Hold on. I'm going to bring it up before I put it. Here it is. You got a brief email. This is from Corrin Y.

Corrin? K-O-R-E-N-Y. Here, I'll paste it. Corrin, or Karen, maybe. It could be Corinne, yeah. Says this, hey guys, I love the show. Do you think it's okay to take a shower with your dog? Is that weird?

Could it be seen as two birds, one stone sort of thing? Love your take. And whether or not, either of you have ever taken a shower with your dog before. Yours in Mondo. Corrin, I don't know what Mondo is. I don't either. Yours and Mondo. You might say yours in Jesus or whatever, and so maybe it's a God.

Or he's saying, I live in. a place called Mondo. Could be, yeah. I don't know. Anyway, corn and Mondo. Maybe he's a Mondolorian. Who knows? Could be.

It is the way I've heard. So what do you, I say, I've done this once, and it was a bad scene. I thought I could, it was literally to kill two birds with one stone. I thought the idea could be, it's a closed space. I can really get in there and scrubber down, you know? Like, really go for it and not worry about getting all that way. You don't have to worry about getting your clothes all wet and that sort of thing. Right.

But if your dog is at all like skittish in the, in bathing, like if they're going to freak out and claw and all that, it's a bad scene. So I didn't, that did not go well for me, I guess is what I'm saying. I ended up cutting up my legs and stuff. I have never taken a shower with my dog. I don't think I'd have a problem with it. I mean, it would probably be weirder for her than it would be for me because she is a dog. that seems to get weirded out by things easily or at least she just has these looks on her faces

like she gets weirded out. She hates bads anyway. She'd just be like, what is, what are we even doing in here? What is going on in here? Why are you naked? It's bad enough. Yeah. Yeah.

Yeah, I didn't think of that. Yeah. Depends on the dog. Here's, that depends on the dog. But here's when I could see it, see it happen. like you go out after a big heavy rain and you're all muddy and the dog's all muddy and it's like you know you I guess you're going to be all muddy your clothes but not your body I don't know yeah it does seem kind of weird I don't think I don't think I'm in the habit of doing it but why this person would ask that is really the bigger question it's a strange thing to ask people but uh well I mean and and uh jakey grammar says you're not supposed to be naked when bathing with your dog I think uh Corinne one is naked when they shower with their dog. Yeah. I think that's what they mean.

Yeah. That's what I would think. Two birds, one stone. He's not saying, I'm just going to get in there and wash the dog in my swim trunks. I think it's like, I'm going to wash me and I'm going to wash the dog same time. Yeah. Yeah, I think you're thinking your shower is the dog shower. You're both done at the same time. That's what's Corrin's saying. Now, if you got a gigantic dog, forget it. I guess it depends on what your shower is. If you got a dog who just sits there and takes it, maybe this is fun. fine. This maybe is fine. But if you've got him, if he's skittish at all, get ready to get a freaking claw to the sack, is what I'm saying.

Exactly. All right? Yeah, I mean, you do have to, you'd have to bend over to wash the dog and that's something just kind of weird. Brian and his reverse cheeseburger story really comes out there. That's one of those things that just stays with you, the old reverse cheeseburger. Yeah, I can't get rid of it. It's permanently in my brain. We saw a movie that had one this weekend. Yeah, oh, you did, did you? Well, we're going to get to those, too, today. We're going to talk about Oscar nominations.

No, I'm talking about Keanu Reeves for the Devil's Advocate. We got a little bit of reverse Keanu Cheeseburg. Yeah, he needs to, uh, I always thought of him as a bit of a shaved down seal, like just no body hair kind of guy. Um, no, no, he's got a hairy butt. Very hairy butt. If you've seen Devil's advocate, you know what I'm talking about. Just about got to see John's Wick. Yeah.

Him and, uh, Furiosa and Maximus's wife, switching back and forth. That's right, exactly. It's an odd movie. It's an odd movie. It really stuck with me, though. That must mean it was good, I guess. I don't know.

Something. I liked it. I didn't hate it. No. So who am I to judge? Nobody, that's who. All right. Hey, guys, at home,

what if we brought Brian Dunaway in and earned prizes for our listeners? And you're thinking, what? I'm listening right now. How do I play? 801-471-0-0-462 is how you play. And if you do things right, you might win, depending on how me and Brian do, in today's edition of Babel Royale. Join us now as we play a little Babel Royale with a good pal, Brian Donaway, from South Carolina. Hello, Brian.

Hi, pal, pal bars. Hi, bud. Hi, buddy. Do you have anybody you call Buddy in your life? Like, even when you're boys. Yeah. Hey, buddy. Hey, pal.

No, I don't call anybody, buddy. That's weird. What am I, a Canadian? I call Nick Budd all the time. I'll like, oh, dude. He'll say, hey, bud, what's going on? I'll say that all the time to him. I call everybody dude and man.

Dude and man. It doesn't matter who you are. Dude. Hey, mom. Dude. Yeah. I say dude to my wife all the time. People get mad at me because I, what was it on the show?

I think. I referred to somebody who was trans. I don't remember who it was. Somebody in our audience. Yeah. I do that, too, because I call everybody, dude, man. I'm like, I'm not trying to respond with anything here. No, no, no, no.

Because I call everybody, all the women in my life, the close women. That's awesome. I call them the, can they call my dude? I call, uh, all the ladies I know I call dude. And they call me, they call me, dude. Most reasonable people do not get upset. You're right. Reasonable is not.

Don't crash down on nobody because most reasonable people understand. Oh, one more question I got for you. What happened to Folgers Crystal? Do those exist? Can you go get a thing? You still can, and I, uh, I've had recipes, like for a coffee, like coffee brownies that use Folgers crystals or espresso, instant espresso, things like that, so. But is anyone you going to make like coffee anymore, like a cup of coffee?

Absolutely. That wouldn't be surprised, yeah. Okay. Of course they do. I thought it died with my grandmother, honestly. No, the coffee that Tina drinks every day is the Dewey Eggbert's Pure Gold. I got her hooked on it because that was my coffee for a long time until I switched back to ground thanks to Kahawa. But that's freeze-dried.

So that's how Crystal's is, is freeze-dried coffee. That's all that is. It's still the best for waking up. Yeah, Folger's in. Yeah, you're right. But what's the other one? Who's the other brand that had the great song? Tasters. Well, Fulgers

had, you mean that had another great song because Fulgers is it. The Fulgers is the hard work. Yeah, okay, that's Fulgers. Yeah, it's Fulgers in your job. What's the other one I'm thinking of? Oh, there's another 80s.

Good to the last drop. No. Oh, chock full of nuts. No. That's the best one. Chalk full of nuts is the heavenly coffee. Maybe I'm thinking of Maxwell House. Better coffee a millionaire's money can't buy.

I don't remember. Yes, Max L's cassettes. Mattel cassettes. We have on the line with us, we have a listener on the line with us who is going to play this game with us. I know, right? Save us from ourselves. Hi, good morning. Who's this?

This is Dave from North South Texas. How are you doing, sir? Hey, Dave. Good to have you here. How are you? Well, which is it? North or South Texas? Yes.

Basically, the northern part of South Texas. This north of you get before, it's called Central Texas. I get you. So you got, that's kind of fun, though. I like that. That's like saying, what is that? That's a thing. Yeah.

That's a thing. We do that here in South Carolina, too. Well, yeah, but you actually have a state called South Carolina, so you can be from North South Carolina. Yeah, yeah, yeah. We subdivide, though. Right. Yeah. Do you think Texas, sorry, this is a little off the beaten path, do you think Texas ever gets its wish and becomes its own country?

Do you think that ever happens? No, no. No. Okay. I'm glad, because we like having you with us. We're, we're having you with us. Dave here. Well, Dave, we're going to play a game. We're going to try to win you some prizes. And the way that works is Brian will explain the rules and what you could win. Yes, that's right, Scott. I'm going to be giving Scott and Brian a topic.

They're going to go back and forth, giving me answers that fit that topic. If one of them gives a wrong answer, repeated answer, or they take too long to come up with an answer, the win will go to the other player. Dave, your job is to actually decide between North and South and predict who's going to come out on top based on the topic. Today you're playing for games from Steam, courtesy of Wesley, Valferris, Valferris, and The Wild Eight. The Wild Eight. Yeah, the Wild Eight. I've seen some stuff about this one.

Yeah, that one's interesting. Yeah, yeah, yeah. I don't know about the first one, but the second one is a quality product. Excellent. Well, you'll get at least one good game, according to these guys. But before they can start, I need to give them a topic. This one comes to us, courtesy of listener I-Corps, Kevin Chu, in our chat. in our in our

cat pool he says hey Brian here's one for Babel Royale everyone says they love Rush but how many Rush studio albums do you think Scott

or Dunaway can name especially albums I'm not going to say the name of that one he says I personally was only able to name about half and only three after a certain point

I'm gonna I'm gonna do you guys a little bit of a favor and I'm going to expand it to um studio live albums live albums okay good

studio and live okay okay oh boy um there are I'll tell you in my list oh did I did I delete the list

oh I didn't delete the list there are 30 rush albums going all the way back to 1974 um and I want to see how many of these you can name okay Dave

okay uh how comes Do you guys feel with this, first of all? I really like Rush, and I know a fair number of albums, but they're all like, they're all concentrated to a certain part of my life, and it's the ones I associate with. And so I think I'm going to be fair to Midland here. Okay. Probably about where I'm going to be as well.

I listened to Rush a little bit, but my friend, very, very close friend, huge Rush fan. and oh my god we've uh we've listened to all the albums why we sit at this house so I've sit and looked at the art so I know okay yeah that's actually what I know better is I know them I know the albums by cover design

because that's some really cool album covers um all right cool uh and once again studio and live albums no compilations so keep Rush's greatest hits out out your mouth let that never come out of the words

has never come out of your face. Great as he is. Knowing that that is their task, who do you want to go first, and who do you think is going to win this one? I think I'm going to go with Brian and Brian to go first. All right, Brian, all the confidence in

your corner, sir. Very good. I'm going to go with I'm going to go with Roll the Bones. Roll the Bones. Came out September 3rd, 1991, and we are

Off to the races. So we got, I'm just picturing Gettie Lee and Alex Lifeson up there doing their thing. You get that drummer guy whose name just escaped me. I don't want you to describe them in concert. I want you to name their studio album. Upside down and his big rotating drum machine of drums. There's 2112. He's got a dog on there peeing on something, I think.

That's not that one. Oh, is it not? Yeah. Yeah, 2112 has the dude standing in front of the pentagram. Oh, right. But that is an album, yes? I'm correct. That is an album, and it came out April 1st, 1976.

Okay. My friend had that on the Pete. I think the P dog, I believe that was Signals. That one might be. It might be. September 9th, 1982 signals. I should pull up album covers because that one I don't know for sure. But continue on.

You don't need... All right. Well, there's the big one that had the Tom Sawyer business on it, the moving pictures. Or was that... That's a good one. That's a classic. Yeah. I'm not sure it was on there.

That one came out February 12th, 1981. And that's a very memorable album cover with some guys moving pictures. Yeah. I'm getting an idea of when Scott was listening to this stuff. I'm going to go with Preston. Presto. That is... Got a bunch of bunny rabbits.

Got a bunch of bunny rabbits on it. November 21st, 1989 is when Presto was released. This is when I was in high school. Like I said, my best friend, every time the new album would come out, he would get very excited and we'd have to go get the vinals. Yeah, this would have been junior high for me.

So it's a very long time ago that I've had this moment in my life. But now we're getting to stuff. Down to the nitty and the gritty. There's a whole album based on that. Hold it. I can hear it. Oh, I think it's fly by night.

Fly by night. There you go. That's a good job. That's a cool. that's a cool rocking 70s art and that one, if I remember correctly. That's an owl flying at the camera. Yeah, or flying at the viewer.

Oh, okay. What do you got, Brian? Scott usually has been staying in the 70s and 80s stuff. And you've been doing the early, like late 80s, early 90s. It's interesting. Yeah, yeah. I'm going to have to go with power windows. Power windows.

Is there one called power windows? I hear those are standard. They're not aftermarket. Power windows, 1985. Not one of the better loved ones, but one of the most interesting cover arts. Wow.

Yeah, looking at the cover of that one right now. It's like a dude standing in his bare room with a bunch of TVs around him looking out the window. A non-power window, though, which is interesting. A non-power window. I'm worried that what I'm about to say may not, might be a compilation or may not exist.

I'm just like a tour or something to be fine, right? Yeah, but that's not what I'm thinking of. I don't even know if this is true. Did they ever have a self-titled album? So an album called Rush that wasn't a compilation. Their first album was indeed called Rush. Came out March 1st, 1974. First album, just think about that.

That's a good call. Yes. and featured. That's right. Captain Kipper's been great about putting all the album covers in here with that just explosion. It looks like it's almost got Jack Kirby dots. Oh, I love that. Curby dots. The logo rush just jumping out. Black Kirby dots are the best dots. They are the best dots. Yeah. More dots. Got two more. Yeah. Okay. Unless Scott gives me some kind of clue. I don't think he said this one already. did he didn't say grace under pressure right she did not say grace under pressure okay such a great

90s sitcom starring the terrific brett butler um yeah grace under pressure april 12th 1984 you can't believe you made a grace under fire joke that's fantastic really went deep on today can you do what can you do an impression of her yeah no no you can't i used to you could down there you could do one she's pretty she's angry she's a little bit Really deep voice. There you go. That's not bad. You're getting there.

I'm, Brad Butler. All right. Let's do the, I guess this should have been a live album, I think. With a tossing copper? No. Tossing copper. It wasn't tossing copper, was it? Throwing copper, but I love tossing copper.

Fucking copper. You're a misnism for doing it. Uh, uh, um, let's do, uh, exit, exit, exit, exit, exit, exit stage left, I believe was, uh, proper live album, yeah. Indeed, it was a live album came out, uh, October 29th, 1981, just after moving pictures and featured songs from, uh, live tracks. Yeah, that's the one I think I heard the most growing up, so I always confused exit stage left and that. And, um, that's a great album cover, like featured the owl from fly by a, Night featured other references to earlier album covers

as so it's so clever. He must not had that one. I don't remember that one at all. That one's awesome. That you're describing. Oh, really? Yeah, no, it's cool. All right.

I'm going to go with Test for Echo. Test for Echo. Much later. Much later, yes. 1996 Test for Echo, September 10th is when that one came out. guys have absolutely drawn a line in the sand and you're staying on on your sides of the uh staying in

our decades or the rush landscape yeah basically the dividing line you've are two you've already given exit stage left and signals which uh less than a year apart and scott's done everything before and you've done everything after interesting well to continue this trend okay i'm all out so i'm going to go ahead today i'm sure it won't count out, but Gettie Lee singing Take Off to the Great White North on the Great Right North album.

I don't know anymore. I'm all out. I have no more rush. That's it. I'm dead. Then that gives our player the win. Gosh, dang it. That was a lot harder than I thought.

That was your duty. Oh, whoops, that's not it. Winner, winner chicken dinner. That's what I'm at the play. I think I had one more. Oh, you do? Let's hear your other guesses. A Show of Hands.

A Show of Hands, January 9th, 1989. Was that... That was a live album, wasn't it? Could have been. Could have been. Do we miss any obvious ones? I feel like we met... What's the one with the dog on it?

Is that signal? You got that one. That was signals, yeah. You got it, but you didn't get it right. 1975. All the World's a stage. Their first, I think, first live album. Right.

Which is a great one. A farewell to Kings. Hemispheres, permanent waves, which features the woman that they used on the cover of exit stage left. Hold your fire. Oh, hold your fire. Jesus. Counterparts, different stages, another great line album, Vapor Trails, Russian Rio, R30th anniversary world tour, Grace Under Pressure Tour, Snakes and Arrows and Snakes and Arrows Live, too, that's a studio album and it's associated live.

album, Time Machine 2011, live in Cleveland, Clockwork Angels, and its tour, and R-40 live, so their 40th anniversary. Oh, R-40, yeah. They've switched to doing lots of live albums, releasing lots of live albums. I would have thought the R-40 would

have been a compilation, so I guess not. Well, there was a compilation call. R-40 live, so R-40, the album R-40, I believe, is a compilation. No, they actually never released an R-30 or an R-40 album um they just did a concert for their 40th anniversary and um was chronicles an album do i have that in my head chronicles was a great was a compilation compilation interesting all right i totally forgot

about that so i'm glad you were good to stay away from that when was their last new material when's the last time uh last new material clockwork angels in 2012 2012 all right so that would have been let's see nil pert just passed away like a year ago yeah or something like that um yeah i guess that sounds right then they just kind of retired they've been great um i would have said feedback turns out feedback is an EP but that was an all cover all cover album that i thought had i don't know why they're calling an epi at eight songs on it i mean that's you know i guess that's half an hour still pretty yeah i mean yeah that's 30 minutes per side right that's a right that's a season of an amc show or something that's right that's right

Yeah, but that's a great cover album. Well, Dave, you've won, and that means you run away with these prizes. I've been... That was fun. I've been chosen for some vinyl music. I've been really digging through my vinyl lately. You've been wearing vinyl? Okay.

Yeah, putting on vinyl. I don't have a rare vinyl. I've been enjoying getting all these new heavy vinals, though. Yeah. It's the 135 gram or whatever it is. Hey, once you go, once you try a little vinyl, why don't you try wearing a little bit of latex after that, Brian? Put a little latex on it. I hear people

I don't know what that means. Hey, Dave. Congratulations. Send Brian an email, coverville at gmail.com. He'll send you your prizes. And you, sir, picked right this day. How does that feel? Thank you.

It feels great to wit. That's awesome. Yeah, you too, man. Dave, it sounds like a guy I could hang out with. I hope one day we get to you. We'll see you later. Yeah, absolutely. All right.

Thanks to Ikewer for that great one. Yeah, well done. I love it when they fall right in my wheelhouse. I don't give those often. Yeah. And it's not like you could tell me and say, hey, Brian, you should do a babble rail of this because I know you'd be really good at it.

I just brought the chat back up, and I course says 2012 isn't 100 years before 2112? Oh, I see what he's saying. Because they were trying to figure out like if that album, the end. Their final, yeah, the end was to coincide

with the 2112 thing, but that wouldn't be, that wouldn't be right. Yeah, I don't know what the significance of that name was. But anyway, there you go. Yeah, Alex Lifeson shows up on trailer park boys all the time. He's been in and out of there for years. Yeah, that's great. They have a good time with that guy.

Well, there you have it. Brian Dunaway tomorrow is a great day. Why? Because Brian Dunaway and I make a video game show called The Boop Show, and it happens tomorrow at 3.30 Mountain Time. You can watch it live or you can check the podcast out later, where we review and talk about indie games. Small efforts by little teams,

which is some of the best stuff out there. So, come to check it out. Team 17 has my number this week with Rogue Heroes. I'm going to play this almost like a Zelda-like, but with co-ops. I'm going to play a game where I've had been playing a game. We'll be talking about a game called Nebuchadnezzar. And if that sounds like an old, old-ass history thing, well, you'd be right. Because if you remember those city builders in the 90s from, I forgot who made them.

crap anyway those guys made amazing games like Caesar and uh the the age of uh not a not the age stuff and like Caesar three yeah uh Pharaoh and the sequel Pharaoh got um anyway amazing old I forgot the name of the game damn so so not ranch simulator then not that it's definitely now what I'm playing this week uh I try I got a coach for that as well you said last week you might play it might and I did I did let's just say it's It's a little too early. It's a little too early for that game. That needs some more timed bacon in the oven.

I wanted to play Valheim on a ranch is what I wanted. And I thought it almost kind of looked like that. Yeah, it kind of, I mean, it's one of those where you, you know, it's basically another survival game, except in this case you're building a ranch and hiring ranch hands and having cattle and shit like that. It's just very early access. World builder, Sim.

I miss, you know, I was thinking how much I missed that old Xbox, kingdom of kelflings is like oh that was such a stupid fun game and I need something like that in my life right now well Nebuchadnezzar is absolutely one of these and I'm excited about it's a two-man team it's already a okay well I also need it on the iPad so

fix that yeah good luck good luck on that that's gonna do it for us Brian Donaway have a fantastic day and we'll see you next he's gone now Brian we have to do this It's time for the news, brought to you by. Brought you by Soundography, where Hammond and I don't do a regular show this week.

We actually did a special episode, something normally that we would put on our Patreon feed, but because we have two movies we're doing this month, we decided we put this one on the regular feed. Hammond I both watched the Bee Gees. How Can You Mend a Broken Heart documentary on Showtime, I believe? That was Max, no. That was Max. Is it on HBO Max?

Maybe it's HBO Mac. is. You're right, HBO Max. And it's excellent. It's so good. So much of their history is before the whole staying alive in the 70s pinnacle that they reached. And they had some great stuff and lots of problems with the band. But what's great about this documentary is all of the other people who show up, Justin Timberlake. One of the Oasis brothers, Noel Gallagher, I believe, talks about being in a band with your brothers and how it's sucks and uh worked out real good for them turns out yeah it really worked out well so uh with one remaining bg alive uh to get interviews and stuff go check out um well check out the documentary first and then check out the soundography episode where we talk about it what's uh who's the one

remaining which which bg brother we still have uh morris morris okay morris yeah i think we don't have we've lost berry and we lost Robin. Zoe says Barry's the one who's still alive. I thought Barry Gibb died, no? No, Barry. Did I get that? Did I miss that?

Okay, Barry is the eldest still alive. He is. Barry. That's right. Okay. Yeah. You look at Barry Gibb and he doesn't look like Barry Gibb anymore. I think that's what, uh, yeah, what threw me off.

Yeah, and Andy Gibb, who was only a BG for just a short time, he was actually killing it with a solo career. on the charts at the same time, battling it out with his brothers in the Bee Gees. Finally, they said, hey, join us in the Bee Gees. And he died really shortly after that. Well, that's what you get for joining the beat. That's not true. I guess it's okay to join the Bee Gees.

Yeah. All right. Oscar nominations happened this morning, and we know what they are going to be now. This is all done by a couple of hosts named. Let's find out. Oh, was Nick Jonas and Priyanka Chokey. Yep, they're married. So there's that.

So you're speaking of a brother from a band brother, brother band. Yeah, I actually, I think Nick Jonas might have been interviewed for the BG's thing as well, if I remember correctly. Oh, very nice. Yeah. There was a whole bunch of stuff here. The big takeaway for me is that freaking David Fincher is the man. His Mank led the pack with 10 nominations. Yeah.

And it's good. Be prepared for a very, it's one of those movies that's told in. in not fully in sequence. A lot of jumping back and forth. And it's one you've just got to pay attention to. It's all black and white, but Gary Oldman's fantastic. He's nominated for Best Actor.

Amanda Seafreed plays a very Marilyn Monroe-like character. She's playing a real character. I can't remember the actress that she's playing. But it's really, really good. And that one, what's great is a bunch of these you're able to see streaming right now. You can see Judas in the Blow. Well, up until last night, you can see Judas and the Black Messiah on HBO Macs. We watched it last night.

Nice timing, by the way, HBO. It's like, hey, right up to the edge of the non-dom. And now if you hear about it, you're like, oh, I'm going to go pay for it now. I'm going to pay for it. Right, exactly. Well, you know, they ended up there since December or something. I think that's fine. um mank you can see on amazon no that's on netflix yeah um nomadland you can see on hulu sound of metal i think is amazon i believe

trial of the chicago seven is on um Netflix as well yeah so the rest of the best picture list you've got the father yeah that's not even available for vod uh rental until later this month right and this is the one with Anthony Hopkins going through Alzheimer's or something? I think so, yeah, and Olivia Coleman plays his daughter and... Right. I bet that's good. Minari.

Don't know what that is. We watch that this weekend. It's excellent. It's about a Korean family who come to America to look for the to follow the American dream, buying a plot of land, farming, and it's Stephen Yun from the Walking Dead. Oh, that explains all these photos of him

and like old-timey clothes. yes it's it's really really good and uh heartwarming at times heartbreaking but um but really really good and that's unfortunately one i mean we basically said yeah you know we'd right now in the normal world we'd be paying 20 bucks a weekend or 20 bucks a night to go and see movies in the theater yeah um not true we'd be doing AMC stubs and so we'd have it all included but uh but but But still, the concept remains. But still, we'd be paying. So it's like, yeah, of all of these, let's just plunk down some money and see Minari.

And we rented it last night. Now, he doesn't get his head smushed in by a big bat full of it. He does not. No, no baseball bat wrapped in barbed wire for his character. Good, good, good. That makes me happy to hear that. No Mad Lamb, which you've mentioned. Is Francis McDormon poops in a bucket.

Yep, pooping in a bucket. We've got promising young women. What is that? That is very, very dark comedy by one of the showrunners of Killing Eve. I can't remember the actress all of a sudden. But she's playing a character that pretends to be drunk to have guys take her home so that she can teach them a lesson about not taking home a woman who's drunk and taking advantage of her. like revengey stuff. I like revenge movies. Very revengey stuff and it's really, really good.

It's, uh, it's, uh, wait, is this, uh, it's not Michelle yo. It's the other, or not, um, not Michelle yo, it's, uh, and, and that's not a spoil. That's, that's, you get that in the trailer. Um, hold on. I've got to look up who it is. It's, it reminds me that old, gottsby. Remember that old hard candy movie? That's that it reminds me of. Yeah, Carrie Mulligan. Yeah, very, very, uh, very, very hard candy. Kind of, uh, same thing. But this one's got. But this one's got. got Carrie Mulligan. It's got Allison Brie, Clancy Brown, Jennifer Coolidge, Leverne Cox, Connie Britton. Such a great cast in this thing. Clancy Brown is he one of the guys that takes her home? He is not. He plays her dad. Oh, good. Yes, you don't want to see Clancy Brown. I really

don't. I really don't. Mr. Crabbs deserves better. Next Greenfield from New Girl that you're in the middle of. Yeah. Oh, we're almost done. And by the way, I got some news for you on that, Brian. Yes. Yeah. You're, the time jump season, right? Okay, so the time jump season is the last season, right? So last season starts, picks up three years later.

Yes. The time where she left was when she was pregnant in real life and had to have a baby, so she pretended she was in jury duty. That was all fine. I didn't mind me any of that. Was it? Okay. I might have been conflating the two seasons.

But this last season? Garbage. okay good all right it feels somewhat redeemed it's not good or or it's good or it's or it's good and it's impossible to notice that it's good because the the treatment of it and the three year bump and everyone's got kids now and like this that weird time jump really broke it I think so it's not so much that the humor of the writing is bad it's it's all juxtaposed poorly I don't it's I think it's really hard to do a last season with a flash forward jump like that.

Yeah. Not only hard. I just think it's a bad idea. It's a bad idea. It's screwed up. Exactly. I mean, is it just because they want to tell a story,

like they've run out of stories to tell them the current timeline they need to go into the future? I don't know. That was weird. I mean, I like resolution. I like,

you know, we were getting that slowly over time with Schmidt and his marriage and Winston and his upcoming nuptials and all that. But I don't know. I don't know what I want.

I almost would have preferred that thing end with the previous season with them in the elevator kissing. Yeah. Because that's not a cliffhanger. That's a great ending. Like you're done. We're done. Oh, that's right. Parks and Rec did that. Did flash forward? Did they do it for the whole

last season or just like an episode or something? Just an episode but I think they did really, really well with that. Yeah. It can be done right. I just think this is funky. But anyway. So that's promising young woman. That one is also pay. You got to pay

rent it but it's worth it how about sound of metal i thought that was a documentary is it or is that is not no it's a and we haven't watched that one yet that'll be this week it is uh about a heavy metal drummer who starts to lose his hearing played by riz ahmed and um oh i heard about this yes i didn't and it's it with something else i thought there's a documentary about this but yeah not not to my knowledge and this is getting such great buzz we haven't seen it yet but it's the other one that him and I are going to be watching for soundography, so. I like that Riz Ahmed fella. He's great.

Yeah, he's great. Trial of the Chicago 7, which I still haven't seen. You saw that, right? I saw that a few weeks ago. And Sasha Baron Cohen, the dude from Succession is in there. Great cast. And there is even overlap between that and Judas and the Black Messiah because one of the founders of the Chicago branch of the Black Panthers is a main character in the Chicago 7.

And our main character in the trial is Chicago 7. So there's a little bit of a little bit of reference between the two. They actually take place just a few months apart. I'm seeing a real lack of DeFive Bloods in here. Yeah, it's a bummer because that was one, Tina, I almost watched that this weekend and thinking that it was going to be in here. But they got original score. And that's about it.

Yeah, I thought. It was Spike Lee for Best Director. Nothing but raves for that as far as I've ever heard. Yeah, Chadwick Boseman, you know, him and that and Maureenny's Black Bottom being his two last performances. Well, I'll rip through those real quick. Best actor and leading role, we got Riz Ahmed for Sound of Metal, Chadwick Boseman for Maurene's Black Bottom, Anthony Hopkins for the father, Gary Oldman for Mank, Stephen Yun for Minari. that's really cool for him to get a nomination yeah it's a great yeah it's a great lineup all those haven't seen riz Ahmed yet uh or chadwick bosman and maureneas but yeah i hear he's nothing but amazing in it

um let's see best actress in leading role we got viola davis for the black bottom she isn't she ma reini's black bottom she's she's maraney in that yeah all right so it is her black bottom uh let's see we got audra day for the united states versus billy holiday which i heard uh her performance is amazing in haven't seen it yeah uh Vanessa kirby for Pieces of a woman, Francis McDormann for No Man Land, where she left a few pieces of herself around the country. And Carrie Mulligan for promising

young women. They're all title characters, right? Nova Davis is Maureeni. And Jarday is Billy Holiday. Vanessa Kirby is the woman in pieces. Francis McDormon is the nomad and Carrie Mulligan is promising young. She's the the pieces are hers, right?

There are her pieces. Okay. Best actor, or sorry, actress in a supporting role. We got Marina Bacala, Bacalova for Borat's subsequent film, a movie film. I... She's great. Loved her in that.

She elevated that thing well beyond its purpose. She was fan friegentastic in it. I'm so happy. As Sasha Baron Cohen said in his Golden Globe speech, that movie gave us such a glimpse into

a rising comedic star. in the form of Giuliani. Yeah. Is that what he said? Is that how he ended it? That's what he said.

He said, like, you thought he was going to be talking about Maria Bacalova? And he said, such an incredible rising star in the world of comedy, Rudy Giuliani. That movie, dude.

Oh, she was so good, though. Let's see. Glenn Close for Hillbelly Edgeley. You got Olivia Coleman for the father, Amanda Seafried for Mank, as you mentioned her before. And Yu Jung, Yun for Minari.

We got Best Actor in a Supporting Role, Sasha Baron Cohen for the Chicago 7. Well, that's cool. Him and his daughter, both get gnombs, or his fake daughter. Yeah, his fake daughter. Let's see. We got Daniel Kaluya for Judas and Black Messiah. Is he a Get Out guy? He was Mbaku. What's that?

Is he the Get Out Kid? He's the Get Out guy, and he was also in Baku in Black Panther. Which is why it's funny that he's a leader of the Black Panthers in Judas and the Black Messiah. That's pretty great. yeah i love it mc u everywhere baby um he was also really good and the first episode i ever saw black mirror was him in it wasn't the first episode in the order of the show but it's the first

one i saw and it was the one where you uh the bicycles yeah you ride you ride the bikes to earn points to whatever yep he was great that's a great one yeah it's first time i never seen him uh let's see we got uh uh where are we here i lost my place oh yeah here we go leslie odom junior yeah leslie odom junior for one night in miami Sammy. Paul Racy. Sam Cook. Yeah. Who's Paul Racy? And that name's familiar. Racy? He's a pretty racy guy. Let's see. The Keith Stansfield for June and the Black Messiah. Best Director. This is always a fun category. We got Thomas Winterberg for another round. Yeah, that one looks interesting. That's another one that I think we're going to have to rent. But it's Michael Shannon. it's a Danish film, if I remember correctly.

Yeah. And it's about a group of, of college students who decide that the only way to be successful in life is to maintain a consistent state of inebriation. Oh, wow. All right. And so I think the entire film is, I'm sorry, not Michael Shan, Mads Mikkelson. Oh. Yeah, Michael Shane, but like both those guys, so it's fine. It's fine.

Yes. I would watch those guys together. now that you mention it. I would too. I think it would be too intense, though. Yeah, it might be. I love both those actors. All right.

So you got that. You got Emerald Fennell for a promising young woman. You got David Fincher for Mank, Les Isaac Chung for Minari, and Chloe Zhao for Nomad Land. And the rest of the usual suspects. We won't get into these too much because we don't have a ton of time,

but we'll get down to Best Animated Short Film. Animated is a great one to talk about it. Let's see. Actually, I want the long form. Where is it? You want the best animated film, yeah. There is feature film. Best, oh, best documentary feature.

The only one on there I've seen is CripCamp, and I really liked it. That's a worthy, that's a worthy entry. It's a cool, I recommend. Yeah, I don't think we've seen any of the documentary films yet. CripCamp is on Netflix and it's very good. Cool. I remember you talking about that for a recumental. Yeah, let's see.

Why can I find animation? Oh, here we go, feature. Onward, Over the Moon, Sean of the Sheep movie. Farmageddon, Soul, and Wolf Walkers. Give that to Onward. Also, I'm a little surprised. Oh, me? Over a soul? I haven't seen Soul yet, so that's not fair for me to say.

I thought you saw Soul on Christmas. You watched that and Wonder Woman and decided. We planned on it. Don't remember this whole story? We got to the end of Wonder Woman, and the kids said, Dad, I don't know if I'm on to watch something emotional right now. That's right. Okay. It's too emotional, me.

And I just have never gotten around to it. Oh, you got to get around to it. because it's, it's really, really good. I really like Onward, though. Or as Tracy Morgan calls it, Sowl. He got it. By the way, quick thanks to Dice to me for correcting me. Kaluya wasn't Mbaku.

Wilson Duke played Mbaku. Kulia played Wakabi, Akoye's husband. Oh, gotcha. In Black Panther. Still in Black Panther, but not the character, I thought. That was confusing. Gotcha. you. The big sadness about the Defy Blood's not getting a bunch of proper noms. And as everybody was sure that this would be the moment that Delroy Lindo would get Best Supporting Actor nomination. And it didn't happen. Which is a bummer. I'm still going to watch that movie and I'm going to like it. So take that, Oscar nomination people. You and your dumb contests? All right. We're going to take a break. When we come back, Bill Duran will be here joining us talking about the world of makers and making things. And after that,

That'll be about it because I have a meeting today. Steve is not here today, which made it a little easier for me to end things a little bit short. But we do have a Monday morning mashup. So stick around for all of that after this music break. And I'll be doing something fun after the show as well. Oh, really? Yes. Oh, okay, we'll play a song now then.

What are we going to do? Okay. Let's go to a band called the Nomadic. Not Nomadland, but the Nomadic. This is a band, I want to say they're from, they seem like they're from L.A. They've got that kind of L.A. Valley sound to them. No, they're Australian. I'm seeing that right now.

But they do have that really cool L.A. maybe Eagles sound to them. Throwing in a little bit of Georgia soul, R.E.M. kind of sound, jangly, pop. Anyway, this is a great song called Skater Park from The Nomadic. Thank you. Back when you weren't, I were young, hiding from a summer sun. Do you remember what we felt between us? Hours in the skater park, skin burn way past dark. Do you remember, mamba, mamba, mamba.

No one Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, no. No one there but you We're outcast from reality We're a society of two And there's blood's built on the pavement Long for God in bits And we're outcast from reality

We're a society of two Just us too Now you and I grew old Our stories left untold Do you regret the years that came between us I went down to the skater park Down to my very last car To pay homage to the scars that come

Peter, Vida Oh, Oh, woh-oh-oh-ho Oh, oh, oh, oh, and o'-po-o-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-o-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh.

No one else to talk to No one there but you And without cause of reality We're a society of two And there's blood spill on the pavement And life's forgotten bills And without cause from reality We're a society of two

Just us too Just us too This blood spilled on the pavement This blood spilled on the pavement and this blood spill on the pavement Las Vegas, it's a great place, cheetahs and we went there to uncover some of the sneaks, cheaters, things didn't go too well for us today. Everyone except me is dead.

I'm going to need more people. Burn in hell, you little green bastard. This is the morning stream. All right, we're back. Oh, chat room. Don't say who the hell is Delroy Lindo. You go look him up. Oh, yeah.

We just saw him. the devil's advocate. Yeah. He's putting the big old bull peeing on a table. You go look him up. He's a great actor. He's been around forever

and he is awesome. He is awesome. Luke. You disappoint me. Just kidding. Not really. All right. How about Bill?

How about Bill? Yeah. He's not showing up. Oh, there we go. He's, I always forget he's punished props and not Bill on this thing. So I always screw up. I'm not him wrong, but nonetheless, it's still him, and it'll be him in a second.

Your bat caves open there, Bill. Welcome to the show. Mr. Bill Durand all the way from the Pacific Northwest and the studios of PunishedProps.com. Bill, welcome back to the show. Good morning. Good morning to you, sir. I thought of you yesterday because... Oh, yeah?

I don't... I don't even know if I'm going to play it, okay? But Skyrim has been on everything, right? Just been everywhere. And now that Microsoft had their... deal go through officially for buying Bethesda for $7.5 million, billion, excuse me, billion dollars.

They flooded their game pass service with all of their greatest hits. And one of them, of course, is Skyrim Enhanced Edition. And now it's sitting on my Xbox Series X, where I'll probably never play it, but it's there. And I thought of you because I went, you know, there's some cool swords in this. I might get in here again. And I think of you when I think of Skyrim, for some reason.

You're just permanently attached to that. game. I understand completely. I've done some costumes. Yep. I played it two months ago again for the fifth time. Wow. You're, uh, you're, you're, I don't have time to play the games I just bought.

Neither do I. I don't know what I'm doing. You gotta be. I'm still so far behind, but I was like, no, I just had to scratch that itch again. That game is still one of the great things ever. It's just, you know, it's a seminal moment in video games and it continues just to keep coming around for a lot of people who love it. But anyway, I thought of you and your tiny drogger helmet that doesn't fit me. All right.

Bill, let's get into it today. You come on the show and talk about stuff you're building, making, and otherwise talking about. Let's do that today. What do you got? Yeah, today I want to talk about some tools that I got from an old barn. What? Yeah. Wait, just who's barn?

Just like an old, just a barn? No, I know the people who own it. A couple years ago, Brittany and I were visiting home, and we were at Brittany's family's house. And her grandfather had, her grandfather isn't around anymore, but he had a dairy farm and a couple of barns. And one of the barns has since been dismantled. But the other one was fixed up, and it's, and Britney's mom sort of cleaned it up and everything painted it. It looks really nice. and everything that this farm has used as a tool for like 60 or 70 years was put in that barn

and no one uses it. It's just been sitting there. It's been tidied up like I said, Brit's mom, sort of organized everything, but it's not a working farm anymore. There's someone that comes and mows the place and everything, but they don't really use it very much. So we were given permission to poke around. Rummage. And if there were any tools that we thought we would. use we could take them oh wow cool yeah that's what a that seems brad like it really is yeah I would

want to do that and I don't even use tools for anything oh yeah and it's it is such a cool place to explore everything and it is way older than me everything like the tools the dust is older than I yeah oh yeah I'd love that kind of stuff like just you feel like you're in a historical um right right but everything in that place was used everything is old and weathered and rusty and dusty and chipped and scratched it's so cool yeah so we looked around i spent a day there myself i just put on my headphones and just poked around and organized and sorted and cleaned some stuff i found a giant welder and a torch that i couldn't bring home because it was too big yeah there were lots of electric motors and pulleys and belts i think a lot of tools and a lot of parts on like tractors ran with these old motors because there were dozens of them oh yeah and those belts are were everywhere back then oh hanging from the rafters there were there were countless belts and i imagine that's because everything there was used to maintain tractors

and stuff i felt why is it when i'm picturing you going through this barn i can see the light peering through the cracks between the wood, I can hear, I can hear creepy music. I can hear an old man saying, I hope you don't find a dead body, like I can hear all this. It was exactly like that. It was so cool. Yeah. So you know how you guys probably have like a jar, like an old peanut butter jar with like nuts and bolts in it, like all the sort of stuff? Yeah.

Imagine if you had like a thousand times that, that's what we found. Like a wall of old ammo containers, right? each one of them full of a different size nut and or bolt and there were dozens of these ammo containers ammo boxes. Ammo boxes are so freaking cool. I love that stuff. Yes, they are. So now you have those. You got a bunch of the boxes

and the stuff that was in them, right? Oh, totally. Well, I didn't take the nuts and bolts. I already have my own collection that I have to organize in my shop. There were also huge socket wrenches for like working on tractors which I didn't take because I don't own any nuts that big like this is so cool yeah and then i also found several lathes but i also already own a couple of lathes so i didn't take those several lades in the barn

at least at least three geez yeah what a treasure trail old wood leaves so when this place was active i mean what were they doing in there just cutting up wood and farm it and i don't know well they were they had to repair everything everything um a lot of stuff needed to be fixed from scratch so any wooden thing you could throw on that lathe and replicate it, like a handle of a tool or something. Yeah. So we did take

some stuff. And here's what I want to list the stuff that we took. We can only take things that we were going to use. I didn't want to take stuff just because I thought it was cool. I did take a couple things as that there. But nothing too substantial. But I didn't want to.

But I did. But I didn't want to. Mostly I only took stuff we could use. also we had to get these things from upstate New York to Seattle, Washington and we flew so ultra heavy things like an anvil which I really wanted

and I would actually use I couldn't bring or a vice or just large standing vice that I really wanted but it weighed you know 300 pounds Yeah that's not like that isn't even like a dedicated suitcase well we'll just have to put the anvil in the suitcase

Yeah oh it's okay we'll just Check that 300-pound vice. Exactly. And we did end up mailing a bunch of stuff home, but we had to limit it to like a couple of boxes. And even then, it costs like $70 to mail one of those boxes because it was full of a bunch of metal stuff. I did find a set of taps.

Now, at the time, I only had a very small collection of taps. Now I have every imperial tap I could ever. Hold on. For those who are dumb like me, what's a tap? I don't even know what that is. So if you have a hole that you want to put a thread in so that you can screw something into it, a tap is kind of like a drill bit, but instead of drilling a hole, it cuts the thread for your screw or bolt. Okay. Oh, it's like a starter. It's like a, what am I trying to say? It's like it gets you going. And it's a, if the screw. Kind of.

All kind of thing, where it, where it sticks. Yeah. But it all, it cuts the threads, though, for the screw. So you have a smooth hole that you drilled through, let's say a piece of metal. Yeah. The tap will cut, uh, the threads into the wall of that hole. Gotcha. So that when you put a screw into it, it actually engages in threads into it.

Gotcha. Okay. Super useful for all manner of stuff. And, um, I found a full set that I sent home. And it looks like it may have. It wasn't brand new. It looked like it was 40 years old, but it looked like it had never been used. And then I found a box of just loose taps, probably a couple hundred of them.

So what I did was I took them out, organized them into each different size. I took half of them because I'll actually use them. The other half I left organized back in case someone else in the family need some taps. I didn't need all of them. There were so many. I found some ratcheting wrenches. that were really useful, a lot of little small bits and stuff. Like, I found a drill bit for a flat screw, but it had us a collar around it to hold the head of the

screw so that your flat screw head doesn't slide out of it. Oh, that's cool. So you use it with a power drill. Yeah, the old people knew about those tricks. The old ones. Oh, yeah. Yeah. And like I said, I found a really cool old wrench that I'll never use.

Like, it's square. It's not hexagon. It's so old. The open end part of it is just a square. It's awesome. So I did take that and I cleaned it up and restored it. What was the weirdest thing you had to take through TSA? It all ended up getting mailed, I think.

Oh, okay. You didn't take any. You didn't have like one single little bit or part that you took with you just to see if you could squeeze it through the... I don't think so. I don't like to test my limits of the TSA. I've already lost at least... I've already lost at least one

Leatherman to the TSA, so I don't like the chance of those things. I lost an external, two and a half inch external hard drive that didn't have anything on it. It was brand new, but they wouldn't let me take it. Yeah, they just kept it and sold it or whatever they do when they keep stuff. So, yeah, I don't, I think they maybe wouldn't be so bad about that now, but in 2009 or whatever it was, they were real picky about hard drives for some reason. Yeah, that's weird. Even though I was like, my leatherman, I gave. I don't know if you took it.

The TSA lady, I was like, okay, I'd realize I can't take this with me. But I can give it to you. Right. So it's yours now. Yeah. Please take it. Yeah, well done. But, I mean, I had the worst thing about that trip is I had a computer in there, like a notebook in there with the hard drive in the notebook.

Right. So it had its own hard drive. Why that one's fine and this other external isn't, I couldn't figure it out. It was really weird. That's weird. But it was also given to me, so I didn't get that worked up about it. Like it wasn't, it didn't cost me anything. It had no data on it.

I wasn't that work I wasn't sad but I wasn't going to change the the direction of your business this one oh this didn't read I was going to turn things around for you it was really really a showstopper for me but anyway

whoever ended up with that congratulations you got a free hard drive that's probably too small now anyway yeah well that's great so have you already put all this crap to work and to use and absolutely yeah I use those taps all the time I use the wrenches a lot

It was cool. And I want to go back, like, at the end of the pandemic, whatever that is, I want to go on a road trip and drive around the country and head home with a vehicle, partially because I want to stuff that vehicle with more heavy tools. Yeah, there you go. You might find that you'll get that anvil home, yeah. Mm-hmm. Yeah. And I wanted to point out, too, like from the outside, the barn, you would never guess that it has a treasure trove of tools on the inside. And it's not like the stuff in there is worth a ton of money.

It's not really. But it is worth a lot if you're the kind of person who would actually use those tools. They aren't valuable because they're useful. So if you've got a family member with a barn, ask them if you can poke around. Be safe, probably old and rusty and dangerous. But look for some people undervalue like a good wrench. Like people really do undervalue tools sometimes. And you might be able to score some really great stuff.

for no money at all. And if you find a body, keep it to yourself. I don't mean keep the body. I mean, just don't say anything. That's all I'm saying. What happens in Newark Valley, New York, stays in Newark Valley, New York.

That's right. I've always loved everything I ever saw in movies or otherwise about upstate New York, kind of the farmer-y sort of, you know, still sort of nature kissed everything. Is it still like that up there? You know, like mostly, unless you go to Buffalo or something.

It's good. It's really good. One of the last times we flew in, we flew into Binghamton. And it was really nice. It's nearer to Brittany's family than mine. Except it was really hard to ignore all of the meth billboards. Oh.

Yeah. These aren't billboards made of meth. Lots of people selling meth up there and using some great expensive advertising to do it. Well, Brian, when you're stuck in traffic and you got nothing else to look at, you may as well have a billboard. Billboard telling you what you, what kind of meth you should get. Exactly, yes. I know I love upstate New York.

I grew up there. I don't love the winters so much anymore, but there's a couple of weeks in the summer where, man, just fabulous. Yeah. Yeah, I'll bet. Well, what's with the meth thing, though? Is it just a big problem going on? Yeah, Upstate New York. I only know about this and just by hearing about it.

but a lot of methamphetamines and what was opioids? The crisis just went just went right through the state. Wow. I did not know that. Okay. And it didn't realize it until I landed and saw a giant sign that was like, yo, are you hooked on meth? We got a clinic for you.

And I was like, oh, huh, welcome home. Weird. Yeah. Maybe they could get a governor who's not harassing ladies all the time and he could take care of that upstate a little bit. Quit worrying about the city. about the freaking country folk a bit. How about that?

There you go. Well, Bill, it's a good stuff, as always, and may your anvil arrive at one point or another. The nice thing about an anvil, it has a way of anchoring you wherever you are. Like, you may never wait. That's true. It wasn't the old days. There's nobody moved around. So they just had an anvil and you never left it.

But if you're going to move a lot, don't get an anvil, I guess. Odds are good. I'll own anvil before I own a house. Yeah. And that, wherever that anvil ends up, that's where I'll live. I'll just live near it. So I never have to move it again. Yeah, just somewhere within driving distance of your anvil.

There we go. That's life. Hey, uh, you have a bonus link for us this week. Absolutely. I have a video from a flight test. I really like those guys. Um, I just total side now, just realized that I've been playing a lot of Valheim and I do always live very close to my anvil so I can repair

all my stuff. Anyway, the videos from flight test they have a 120 mile per hour RC plane that they put an FPV camera in and then they built the little cockpit to simulate flying

in a plane only they're, it's bananas. They have like VR goggles on so they can watch the whole like he, his vision looks like he's sitting in the cockpit of a tiny airplane that's going 120 miles per. Oh, that's Cool. It's amazing. It's just a really fun little ring they made. Oh, that's

awesome. So is there's channels all about remote control, RC planes and all that kind of stuff? Yeah, yeah. Is the guys that did the drone Millennium Falcon? Yes. Oh, yeah. I thought I recognized their

huge landscape around their... Yeah, they own a golf course. They fly around the golf course. It's really cool. They own a golf course. Do I hear that right? Oh, yeah. Okay. Yes, they do. All right. Is that YouTube Monday that bought that golf course or did they already have a golf course? No, they crowdfunded the whole thing a few years ago.

I don't know the whole story, but it's really cool and compelling. I want to buy a golf course. That's what I want. I know. Yeah. I want to sit in the cockpit of a tiny plane like that in VR, not for reels, and fly 120 miles per hour. That seems really cool. Yeah, above my golf course. That's where I want to fly it. All right. That's amazing.

go check them out on YouTube the site is flight test F-L-I-T-E test and just to make things confusing I guess is why they name them solve that that's fine whatever they want to do Hey Bill DeRand it's uh you're up there at PunishProps.com so you guys can go check that out and of course the Punish Props YouTube channel

always available for perusal Have a fantastic week we'll see you next time See you up All right These shots from the cockpit of this thing, incredible. And when it's spinning, how is he not just ralphing? Oh, my gosh.

I know. I'd be doing the same thing. I would just hurl. Do you get to buzz a guy on the green at the fourth hole? Yeah. Also, if you own a golf course, do you own a, like, visitor center slash, you know, like club? Clubhouse? Yeah.

Like all of that? Is that all part of this deal? I want to know. Yeah, imagine. I mean, you know, there are some golf courses, at least here in Colorado, there's some really nice ones and then we've got some ones that look like they're owned by a couple of guys who make drones so yeah that's a fair point it's probably nothing fancy they're not all like uh they're not all mara lago scott no no all right well on that note things in a spin geez oh

i know it's too much and he's just sitting there chilling i don't know how he's doing that yeah yeah i couldn't do it he's got uh special guts all right hey monday morning mashup time This is called the workout regimen. And I don't know what to expect, so here you go. They're all mixed up. They don't know what to do. All mixed up, don't know what to do. Stick it in your butt.

And then you go do-do-do-do-do-do. All right, well done. Lucky you so be. Lucky piece of chit. So enjoy your life as a puppet spelled P-U-P-E-T-T-T. So no double P. Pupet. So enjoy your life as a pupet of the leftists and doing their bittings.

I don't like naked late. I do like naked ladies. That word isn't in there. Pupits of the leftists. Pupits. Pupits. Yeah. What kind of chips you're putting in my arm?

Yeah. Is this one that will track me or stop me if I do something you don't like? What kind of, is this a race my memory? And while a sudden do I have a southern axiom? Because we like to stereotype our southern accented folk. The fact that you took the time out of your day to. reach out to us and say howdy. Yeah.

By default makes him not a pupate of the leftists. You could finger it, Brian. You could put your finger in it. Can finger it? Great. Okay. Good. That's where I'll leave that.

That's where you decide to leave. Yeah, I'll stop there. I was thinking about going up and doing the ding-dung ditch, and then if nobody answered, flashing my genitals in the ring cam. Oh, Bill, can I join you? Going to pull out the old tape measure. Going to wrap it around and get a circumference and get a length, width, a height. A turd, sweet.

Brian done away. have a fantastic day. No. No. I thought that was going to be more there. Yeah, I did too. I ain't taking no vaccine. That's got chips in it.

Don't attract me. So I think we're finding another word that you pronounce differently than I do. Because it sounds like you're saying a bull. A bull. A bowl. What would you say? A bowl. A bowl.

A bowl. But it sounds like you were saying a bull. So like B-U-L-L-B-L-B-L. Bull? Here's what you should do. You should exercise right before you get the shot. then you get the shot in whatever arm you decide, and then you exercise right after you get your second shot.

I was told just to exercise the one arm that I'm getting the shot in, so I've got a whole day plan. I don't want to know what, though. I really don't. I don't want to know what that regimen is. Where's regimen going to come from? Where's it happening? There's where it comes from right there.

Working a regimen. Good job. Jamie, as always. We love your mashups. those coming, we appreciate it. It was fun looking at the cat during the thing as well. Yeah, she's unamused by the

mashups. She doesn't get it. She doesn't know the references. Nothing we can do to make that cat. Get excited about it. That's just the way of cats. She's cat loaf right now. She's just a loaf of cat. Indeed. That's going to do it for today's show, by the way. The cat would want you to head on over to patreon.com

I had to bump because Twitch was having issues on Friday, so I couldn't do the show Friday. But I can do it today, and I'm going to. So right after TMS, right after we're done with titles, I'll fire up, fire up that stream. Awesome. We'll do a raid and everything. So once, in fact, you should start it and then we'll raid it in real time. Oh, gosh. Yeah.

It seems like it could make things go wrong with me having stream labs open while I'm doing this. I don't know, will it? I have no idea. Well, we'll find out, won't we? We might find out. All right. I'll start that during, I'll start that during the, you know, title time. I'm not going to do all we're doing the business here.

All right. Let's get to a request. This one going out to Paul Gaguerre. I think I'm pronouncing that incorrectly, aka Jigerdad in our chat room, the guy that I play D&D with. We're played back in 2020. We haven't started up a new game in 2021. Dear Soft and Bubbly, March 15th is my 38th birthday, which is pretty much the demarcation for the full-scale start of the pandemic here in Canada.

School was canceled this weekend last year, and one week later, I was laid off for four months. This has kind of been messing with my head, and I need some changes. Hopefully, this can be a fresh start for a new me rest of this year. To kick it off, I'm requesting a song from the Melodica Brothers, as they've been a great follow since I discovered them last year. Any of their cyberpunk covers would be great Or any of their other flipped feeling songs Don't forget to get a tender crisp Bacon and cheddar ranch for lunch

And love the show though Sign Jigger Dad The tender crisp bacon cheddar ranch Yeah Yeah these guys are great The Melodica brothers I support them on Patreon Because they crank out so much great content

They do a series of cyberpunk songs Where they cover songs with more of a cyberpunk feel They do songs where they change the feel of a song, either make enter Sandman into a happy song or make, don't worry, be happy into a really sad song, doing stuff like that, really cool.

But we're going to go cyberpunk today. We're going to go with one that I know. You love as much as I do, Scott. Here's their cover of Toto's Africa. Here are the Melotica brothers. Awesome. Big surprise. I was not aware of. Fantastic. That'll do it for us. Thank you all for being here. We'll be back

tomorrow with more. We'll see you then. I hear the drums echo in tonight, but hears only whispers of some quiet conversation. Just coming in 12.30 flight, the mullied wings reflect the stars that guide me towards salvation. I stopped an old man along the way, hoping to find some more forgotten words or ancient melodies. It turned to me as if to say, Hurry boy, it's waiting that for you. It's going to take a lot to drag me away from you There's nothing that a hundred men or more could ever do

I bless the rains down in Africa Gonna take some time to do the things we never have The wild dogs cry out in the night As they grow restless longing for some solitary company I know that I must do what's right Sure as skidimongero rises like olympus above the ceremony I seek to cure what's deep in the world's deep in side, Friday, and not this thing that I've become.

Gonna take a lot to drag me away from you. There's nothing that a hundred men or more will do. I've desperately in Africa. I'm going to take some time to do the things we never had. Thank you. I'll take a lot to drive me away from you. There's nothing that a hundred men or more can ever do. I bless the rainst out in Africa.

I'll take the Lord to drive me away from you. There's nothing that a hundred men or more can ever do. I bless the rain is down in Africa. Down in Africa I'm blessed to it I'm blessed to it I'm blessed down in Africa Go take some time
