It's a show of shit. See more asses with Dunaway. Is Goofy a dog because I like really seriously wanted to know?
Starting point is 00:00:25 My friends went in with LSD. Pushed by a road. I blame Scoop Jorgensen. A smart dog, who's into your wife? Gufus Caneus. I'm that type of curmudgeon. Lisa Loub. What the damn acroid is going on?
Starting point is 00:00:40 Little ditty, about Jack in Wyoming, with Tom and more on this episode of The Morning Stream. This muggy November weather gives me the horribles. What? The morning stream. F-off, Haribol. Hey, everybody. Welcome to TMS. It's Scott and Brian on the TMS show, the wacky, tobacco morning show you've all tuned into in your car.
Starting point is 00:01:17 Beep, meep, me, me, me, it's Wednesday, March 11th. Mario Day was yesterday, so you're too late. Today is Marie Day. Marie Day. Marie E. They've got to figure out a way to celebrate that. But Brian, I wanted a quick quiz for you. I played just a second ago.
Starting point is 00:01:34 a voice. And I want to see if you can guess who this is. I'm going to play it against. Very short. You would not be blamed if you can't get this. I wouldn't get it if I didn't know. But I'm just curious if you can do it. So here we go.
Starting point is 00:01:46 What? You know who that is. Oh, that sounds like Dan Aykroyd. Nailed it. Man. Look at you. That was Dan Aykroyd at a point in the movie driving Miss Daisy, which I still think is like a perfect film.
Starting point is 00:02:01 I love that movie. That's a good one. And at one point, this is when, what's his name. When somebody says pigly wiggling, he goes, what? It was something about it. It was maybe the time where what's his name was asking for a raise. Or he was going to. Hoke.
Starting point is 00:02:17 Hoke was asking for a raise. And or he was like mentioning going, yeah, he's offering me more money. And he goes, what? What? And the click was his cigar lighter shutting. Oh, like a zip-o thing. Yeah. And it just reminded me how much.
Starting point is 00:02:32 The fan I am of acroyd acting, not just comedies or silly stuff. No. Those are all fine. But when he's just like serious about acting, man, love it. He's great. He's just great. I love him. Everyone thinks, oh, he's Ray.
Starting point is 00:02:48 Okay. Broaden your horizons. He's also really good and everything else. Yeah. He's also leader of the conehead family. He was also the bassimatic salesperson. He was also, like, come on now. Most importantly.
Starting point is 00:03:02 he was grosser in gross point blank, which is perhaps the greatest role he ever had or will have. I loved him in that. Oh, man. So more Dan Aykroyd in my life. I don't care how old he gets. I need more of him.
Starting point is 00:03:16 There you go. I don't think you've watched that new Ghostbusters thing, have you the most recent one? Yeah. Neither of the most recent. Oh, that's right. Frozen Empire. You haven't watched either.
Starting point is 00:03:25 Yeah, I admit I'm kind of. Frozen Empire was the, no. Frozen Empire was the first one. Second one was? I don't actually know. something like that? Ghostbusters. Frozen Empire is the second one's good
Starting point is 00:03:36 because it has all the No, wait. I think Frozen Empire was the first of the sequels and then Legacy is the newest one. I could be wrong. There were like eight sequel movies, franchise sequel movies
Starting point is 00:03:49 that had the word empire in them that year. Oh, afterlife. Afterlife was first. Frozen Empire was second. Oh, there have been three? No, there's only two, I think. Okay.
Starting point is 00:03:59 I think they're only two. so there's no Ghostbusters legacy no there may be maybe there'll be a third you never know maybe who knows but the Paul Rudd
Starting point is 00:04:10 Carrie Coon one was the Frozen Empire well I guess Carrie Coon was in both those but yeah those two movies are theirs yeah the Finn Wolfhard set yeah rat boy set I have not been to see these
Starting point is 00:04:22 or have watched them in any way because I have a reason I'm scared of what they're going to do to my beloved franchise minus two. Two sucks. But the first movie, the first ghostbusters. The second, the sequel already did as much damage as you can do to the franchise.
Starting point is 00:04:40 Yeah, it was poop. I didn't like it. The new ones, I'd see are good. They won't affect your enjoyment of the original. Okay. In any way, shape, or form. As a matter of fact, there's a great tribute to, but God, Egon. Egon. Oh, yeah. Raimus, Harold Ramis.
Starting point is 00:05:02 In the first of the two, and then they handle the other characters really well in the second one. All right, I didn't need to see them. I don't know why I've been holding off. I had no problem with the answer the call with the wig and Melissa McCarthy and all that.
Starting point is 00:05:22 But these other two are even better than that was. Well, that's good. That one was, I think that one had potential. It just wasn't written that well. It felt, it did feel like just a, you know, a long SNL skit with McKinnon and wig and, yeah. Yeah. And I like those people, but sometimes it doesn't work. Thanks, babe.
Starting point is 00:05:39 That was awesome. Yeah. Thank you. What is, which mug is it? Oh, it's the core one. I'll celebrate drinking this tea from a core mug today. There you go. Celebrate with the release of the new core play mat.
Starting point is 00:05:50 Oh, yeah. That thing is, oh, I got it right here. You can't really see it, though. I wonder if I could do. So our cameras, my camera has this feature. Let's see if I can get it to do it. Where you can pan it down? Yeah, and it's supposed to be just like automatic.
Starting point is 00:06:02 Is this it? Let's see if that worked. It did. Oh, but that's no good. Well, it kind of worked. Yeah, this, okay, well, the edge of it is right here. And it goes that way. Yeah, you can't, obviously, you don't want to like pull your keyboard and mouse and all that stuff off or there just to show it on screen.
Starting point is 00:06:18 Yeah, that's not going to work. Damn it. All right. Well, anyway, they're really cool. If you guys want one, I should grab them. I'm impressed with the quality. The quality is nice. You know how some mats are just kind of, they come to an edge and they end.
Starting point is 00:06:29 These have, like, the. A nice little seam. Yeah. See, that's, then we get frayed. By the way, thanks to that shot, I can now blackmail you for $10,000 in crypto, or else I will release video of you looking at your crotch on the internet, all over the place. Well, if I had $10 in crypto, you could have it. Fair enough.
Starting point is 00:06:53 Any crypto money, I don't know. I'll be honest. I don't really know how it all works. And I have 50 bucks in crypto that I bought years ago. And I just watch it go from 58 to 39 to 61 to 42. And I just, well, this is just exciting as hell. Has it ever like blown up? And you're like, man, I'm going to, I got a nest egg now.
Starting point is 00:07:18 No? No, I bought it after that great, that great blow up. That would have been, it probably would have gone up to like two or three hundred bucks. And then, yeah, I would have sold it. Thank you very much. Sure. I would too. I could use the cash. Let's do it. Yeah. I just don't have, I got no, you know, because really you don't own a single coin anymore, right?
Starting point is 00:07:35 You just don't know percentages of a coin or whatever. Exactly. Yes. Yeah, I don't know how it works. I just know the mall. I was in the mall. I was in the mall. 5-1 cryptos. Yeah. It's just such nonsense. We've done this to ourselves. Yeah. I was at the mall in the food court and they had a crypto, or they had a Bitcoin ATM. ATM. And I know I've seen these before, but it never really occurred to me.
Starting point is 00:07:57 To put it in a mall, I guess anywhere you're going to buy things is where they're trying to get you to do stuff. But it just seems so weird to me. It's weird because there's a vape shop near us. It's right next to the into juice that I go to for my juices. Oh. And it's got an ATM in there, a Bitcoin ATM. And apparently a lot of them have Bitcoin ATMs. I don't know what it is about saying, all right, your vape and your Bitcoin ATMs all need to be in the same building.
Starting point is 00:08:27 What is that about? I wonder if it's because they, like in, I know in Vegas, if you're out of town or and you want to go to a, like a weed shop, you have to pay in cash. I can't remember what the deal was. It was something about cross-state stuff. So maybe there's something with Bitcoin where it ignores all that. And you can just buy your weed. I don't know. Yeah. Yeah. We have so many places that are perfectly, I'm not even sure some of them are real, I swear. But they're perfectly positioned to be. be weed shops the minute recreational is legal. As soon as it becomes available, like, yeah. Like they've already got a sign that's got the outline of a cannabis, you know,
Starting point is 00:09:06 of a pot leaf on it. Yeah, these places like 420, 420 green or something. Right. And you're like, what are you guys having here? Well, right now it's just CBD oils and me and where. But when that happens, oh, man. Plus pipes. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:09:20 They're going to be ready. We just happen to be at 420 Main Street. We bought that early. We knew. Yep. It's going to be interesting. Anyway, hey, I got a thing for you. Yes.
Starting point is 00:09:29 This is so funny to me. I don't know why. This is funny because it's so damn random. But I got this message on our, I can't remember which. Probably, oh, this would have been email because of attachments. Sure. So the morning stream at gmail.com is where this came. And this is from someone named kind weather.
Starting point is 00:09:45 Kind weather. Which I kind of like. Nice, right? Kind weather. Sure. Think about that like a, I don't know, a nice cool day, sun's out. You know, kind weather. I like it.
Starting point is 00:09:56 We had very kind weather yesterday. I'll talk about that in a minute. So did we. It was super clear. Yeah. You, of course, took advantage of it. I did not. I did the opposite.
Starting point is 00:10:06 But anyway, so he writes in and says, hey, slurp and burp. We've heard that one before. Sure, sure. Says I think it. Ham and cheese, baby. Oh, yeah. For around here, up your game. Says, I think I found your photos on the internet.
Starting point is 00:10:21 Are these you guys? That's interesting way of putting that. Yeah. Thanks for the great show. All right. So I opened the attachments. He thinks I look... He thinks I look like this.
Starting point is 00:10:34 Which... Kind of do a little bit. It's not that far off. I mean, if I let the beard go too long, maybe we got this problem. And then he says this is you, dude. Is that a weird thing to get in the mail? That's a weird thing to get in the mail. Thanks, man.
Starting point is 00:10:52 I appreciate that. I don't understand the point. But here. Here we are. This is the new show. The new logo for the, for the show. Just available wherever you get your podcast. It's the beardy in the melon.
Starting point is 00:11:07 In the morning. In the morning. Yeah, I don't know what the impetus or the motivation was for this, but whatever. 3D printed goggles, I think looks like. Yeah, they don't even look real. You're right. They look like fake. I mean, just pinch and zoom here.
Starting point is 00:11:21 Oh, no, not mine. You know, always, always love it when people find, people that you're clearly heavier than me and say, this looks like you. Just the guy knows is way more bulbous. I agree. I don't think this looks like you at all.
Starting point is 00:11:33 No, it does not. I mean, is it because he's wearing this? Because he wears a melon on his head. He cleared there's a little tiny piece of hair. You can see it coming down off the front of that thing. Lame. Lame. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:11:44 Yeah. Anyway, I don't know how to take it, kind weather. Maybe your name should be mean weather. You know what you look like? You look like a cloud with like lightning coming from the bottom and rain. Yeah, cumulus Jr.
Starting point is 00:11:59 That's what you look like, kind weather. Yeah, dirt, crap weather. Dark weather. I don't know what to call them. Yeah. So what'd you do to take advantage of the sun? I replaced one of my tires that, you remember we talked about this,
Starting point is 00:12:14 how I've been living on borrowed time with my tires because they had two blowouts during the MS-150 and patched them, fixed them on the ride. one of them sent me back like 45 minutes and just killed me on the second day. It was like I had all this momentum and motivation. And then that happened. And it just like drained me of what I needed to finish the race. Let me ask you a quick question about that.
Starting point is 00:12:41 When they like I think of it as pit stops in a car race. Sure. When you have to stop for something. And then in those cases like in a rally race, sure. If you get spun out or you're in the weeds or whatever, they take time off your clock, but it's more officially done. Like there's a allowance for certain amounts of time, downtime to fix a tire to rear, rear, and do the whole thing and then send the guys on their way.
Starting point is 00:13:05 Do they have that with the bike races? Or do you just screwed if you lose time? Well, it's not a race, Scott. So no time is tracked. Good point. So that 45 minutes is more about you just feeling like. It's more about me just losing all momentum and stuff. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:13:19 No, the only timer on the race is if people don't make it to the finish line by three, then they send the cars out to just pick people up and say, no worries. Good luck next year and stuff. Okay. Like if they're really dragging their feet. But yeah, no, it's not a race. It's a ride. It's a ride to earn money for the MS-150.
Starting point is 00:13:40 And I fixed one of my tires. I screwed up my hand a couple places doing it because I'm trying to pry. part of the old tire off and the thing slipped and jammed right in my hand dumb um but uh replaced the front one as a tubeless so i put the sealant in there and all that stuff it's great nice and um and so it's a good time to remind people i'm doing this for a reason i'm doing this to raise money for the ms 150 and this year raising money is important because i'm still raising money for the colorado ms 150 and that's where i want you to donate if you go to tiny dot c slash bike coverville.
Starting point is 00:14:21 That link will work for every. Every year I'm going to update the tiny.cc so it works. Tiny. dot cc slash bike coverville. But even though I'm raising money for Colorado, I'm doing the ride in Logan, Utah, because the Colorado ride is the same weekend as an artacular. And the Logan, Utah ride is the same weekend that the MS-150 ride used to be on.
Starting point is 00:14:45 So it's at the end of June. But it's a nice little sister state thing, you know? It is. You know what? And I can splat my bike on the back of the car, drive it out there, spend the night, do the ride on Saturday. And I think it's only, it's like a long one-day ride as opposed to a multi-day ride. So it's not even an MS-1. It's an MS-150 ride, but it's not 150 miles.
Starting point is 00:15:16 Sure. and what we need here in the end is that Brian always like just destroys everybody else's totals. Yeah, the money I raise is always great and it's all things to you find folks for your generosity. A lot of you know somebody, excuse me, with MS, we've had quite a few tadpoolers with MS who've supported the right and always put a thing on the back of my jersey that has their names on it. but yeah no I want you to to be well represented both as tadpoolers both as part of this community and just as friends who donate to such a great cause
Starting point is 00:15:58 no money goes to me I do this you know I do this out of the bottom of my heart yep and the chode on his butter butter on his show the butter on my chode but tiny dot cc slash bike coverville and the one in Utah yeah June 27 It's in 15 weeks. I have 15 weeks to prepare. It's called the That means I have 14 weeks to prepare for something else
Starting point is 00:16:23 And it's going to drive me crazy. Yeah, right, exactly. The Harmon's best dam bike ride Because apparently it goes over a dam. I'm trying to still, it must be Bear Lake. I don't know what else that dam is. Yeah, I think there might be a map. Let me see if there's a map up yet.
Starting point is 00:16:38 Beautiful up there. Routes. Here we go. Yeah. You want to see the map? Yeah. I will send you a link. Stick it in the old Discord.
Starting point is 00:16:47 Here's the Logan, Utah. The Utah. The clip-clop ride. Right there. Patrick Stewart's still haunting. I know. It is. Oh, man.
Starting point is 00:17:00 Well, boys. Here we go. Look at this. Here you go. This is a good look at the, let me pull this up a little. Yeah. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:17:08 Boy, if you want to show that, see that bottom, that graph on the bottom in red or pink. Oh, down here. here. Let me pull down there. Oh, that's your elevation, is it? That's the elevation right there. Oh, shit.
Starting point is 00:17:19 Look at mile 15 through mile 20. That is five miles of uphill. Forty how much? 8,000 feet. No, 4,800 feet up. Well, yes. At the highest point, I'm 4,800 feet above sea level, but I'm, but I'm going from 4,400 feet to 4,000. So I'm going roughly 400 feet above sea level.
Starting point is 00:17:41 So I'm going. roughly 400 feet. This is less about elevation. You're right. It's more about just, here's a spike in uphill. Exactly. But 400 feet in five miles is a pretty sharp incline.
Starting point is 00:17:55 Look at this shit though, dude. When you get at the top and then you go, oh. Yeah. Yeah. And look at that. I know, that's straight down.
Starting point is 00:18:02 And you know what they probably are going to do? Is that's probably going to be like a bunch of stoplights and stuff like that where any momentum I would have had on the downhill is just completely lost. I think this is, let's see, so that's, so I'm assuming the bridge here, the dam is right here. That's where it looks like, yeah. And I think, what is that? Oh, Cutter, what, uh, Cutler, what is it? Cutler? Cutler? Cutler Reservoir. I've never, I don't know what that is, but that seems rad. Maybe that feeds into, oh, man, there's so much about Logan, I don't know. Yeah. I just know UVUs up there, and I used to go there for art camps, and I made out with a really pretty girl from California.
Starting point is 00:18:44 you know that that's the part i know nice excellent nothing right with that go check it out you guys give them the URL one more time get them over sure tiny dot cc slash bike coverville all one word all lowercase bike coverville made it real easy for you fine folks i did i did thanks to advance five bucks in there throw 10 bucks throw whatever you can whatever you can put in there i need to i need to raise money for colorado so i can go ride in utah yep somebody in the chat says you're not riding to utah no man Are you insane? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:19:16 Do you know what that would be? Who said that and join me? Yeah. I'll do it if you do it. Somebody says, hey, you're going to just write. Oh, it's the wraith. It was asking. Yeah, it's too much.
Starting point is 00:19:27 That's too much for a car almost. Exactly. That's 10 hours in a car. That is, you know. I'd rather take a plane. Christmas. Yeah. Well, that's great.
Starting point is 00:19:36 She had any Christmas. More on that as we get closer, everybody. Yeah. All right.

Starting point is 00:26:11 That was the joke, though. Oh, I see. That was a joke. I see. Yeah. Also, wasn't, No, the cat had... Snowball was two.
Starting point is 00:26:19 Part two or whatever. Yeah, so let's go with Santa's Little Helper. All right. Show me Santa's Little Helper. Boom! How about Satan's Little Helper? I basically own Santa's Little Helper in the form of Rainer. That's the kind of dog I have.
Starting point is 00:26:33 It's that stupid. I think I really got into hit to Scott's head by forcing them out of picking old dogs like... Yeah, I think you did. You brought him into the animation. He's all struggling. Number 30, by the way. is Santa's little helper in the list.
Starting point is 00:26:49 Yeah. All right. Brian. I'm going to, I'm going to go with Lassie because if I fall on a will, I want that dog to come find me. Yeah. And then go tell somebody about it.
Starting point is 00:27:03 He fell onto a bell. I don't understand you, Lassie. He slipped and fell? What? Yeah, okay. Show me, show me Lassie. Number one. I gave you a one point.
Starting point is 00:27:18 One point. That's okay. I got my Benji down there. Benji's swinging it back around a little bit there. It's keeping it's keeping things close. Scott's got 11 points to Brian's 10. So it's, it's,
Starting point is 00:27:31 you know, it's close. It's close. It's really close. I'm going to go with another famous older, I don't know that dog's name though. So I'm going to go instead. Dog the bounty hunter.
Starting point is 00:27:44 No. Dog the Bell. That's who I want. Dog the Bounty Heter. How about some, how about, nobody wants to. Oh,
Starting point is 00:27:53 I can't choose. There's so many great little kids, Bluey. Oh, Bluey. Sure. Shit. Shit.
Starting point is 00:28:02 I love that show. All right. It is modern, too. Show me, Bluey. Are you kidding me? Oh, Bluey was,
Starting point is 00:28:12 Bluey was somewhat up there. somewhat up there. Where is Bluey? Maybe not. Bluey was number 36. I blew it really bad. I'm going to take a real risk here. Oh, should I even do this?
Starting point is 00:28:28 I'm going to say Bandit from Bluey, the dad. Oh, okay. Everybody loves Bandit. I would love Bandit as a pet. This is probably a terrible idea, but let's say it. Let's do it. All right. Show me Bandit. Check.
Starting point is 00:28:42 Yeah, it's a terrible idea. I don't think Bandit even. came up. And not even Bandit from the old Johnny Quist. Not that little stupid pug. Not even that bandit.
Starting point is 00:28:53 I was wondering about that. Oh, no. I take that back. Just to let you know, yeah, Bandit was tied for 50 first place. Bandit, the Johnny Quest one. Oh, my gosh.
Starting point is 00:29:01 Just in case you felt like you needed to still say it. I'm giving you that. Here's a free title. It's the wrong bandit. There's your title, somebody. It's the wrong bandit. Stupid little pug.
Starting point is 00:29:12 I don't want that. Bandit of brothers. I want the blue healer. Anyway. Yeah. All right. Back to you, Brian. What you got?
Starting point is 00:29:19 Goofy's not a dog, but I kind of want to say it. Isn't he? I thought Goofy was a dog. No, Pluto's the dog. Who knows what? Don't give him the answers. Well, no, I thought Bluey was the, he's a dog and owns a dog. He owns.
Starting point is 00:29:32 You mean goofy? Goofy? Sorry, Goofy is a dog and also owns a dog. Right? I thought there was a whole weird thing with him that he was a dog. I thought goofy. Yeah. I thought Goofy was cross species.
Starting point is 00:29:45 The tuba says Goofy is a horse cow. That's right. I thought Goofy was, he's a, he's a crossbreed. I don't know. I think Goofy is like Gonzo, where we don't know what the hell Goofy is. You know what? Brian Ibit, you are very close. I just found it.
Starting point is 00:30:00 Goofy is not technically a dog. He is classified as an anthropomorphic canine. That's what I said. Which means he belongs to the canine family, but his unique character in his own right, his species is humorously referred to as goofus canis. Okay, so still some dog in him. A little bit, a little bit, but I think you, the Gonzo comparison is dead on. I think that's it.
Starting point is 00:30:18 Yeah. Yeah. All right. Well, anyway, dog shouldn't own dogs is my point. Yes, correct. Whatever. What about, what about a big red dog? What about Clifford?
Starting point is 00:30:29 Oh, Clifford. That big red dog. Who wants to adopt a big red dog? If you didn't think of Clifford, he's huge. He's got to be at there. He's pretty big. Yeah. How much food does that thing eat?
Starting point is 00:30:40 All right, show me Clifford, the big red dog. That gum, it's a bum. the big red X. Clifford, the big red dog, did make it on the list and was all the way up at 19. It's so far the best wrong answer you've given. You'd have to carry around. You'd have to walk him and carry around a glad trash bag
Starting point is 00:31:00 to keep up with his poops. Oh, my gosh, I think you need a bulldozer to keep up with his poops. Yeah. That's not a good pick for a pet at all. Clifford, the big brown poop machine. I guess that's why it's not number one. Yeah, it changes name to Schifford. Shit, shit, turd.
Starting point is 00:31:16 Anyway. Just say shitter. Yeah, the shitter. All right, well, that means it's back in my corner for a moment. It's back to you, Scott. Yep, there's still six answers on the board to choose from. Score is 11 to 10. You're in the lead, but just barely because of that one point Brian got for Lassie.
Starting point is 00:31:32 All right, I'm going to go with Scooby-Doo. Scooby-Doo. I wouldn't want him as a pet, but I just think, you know. He works for. Scooby Snacks. He'll do anything for a Scooby Snag. And he'll love it when Pot becomes legal in Utah. Hell yeah. Show me.
Starting point is 00:31:51 Roebar, robert. Oh, man. Number six. That's good points. That's a good point. That is good points. Yep. All right. Eddie from Frazier. I'm just throwing them in. Oh, that's a good one. Okay. All right. Show me, Eddie. Yeah, Clyde. Played by Clyde.
Starting point is 00:32:09 Yeah, that was a sad day when he did. Just one dog, that whole series? It was a good. Well, no, I think there were three clides. I think so, too. Okay, there we go. All well-trained little Jack Russell. Jack Russell. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:32:21 Love those dogs. Hyper is all get out. And to hear one owner that I knew, talked about it, dumb as a post. They had like one of those invisible fences in their front yard. And their dog would like run to zip through the fence, like to get through the fence. They love getting.
Starting point is 00:32:42 now. I don't know. I can't remember we were talking about Goofy and Pluto. I don't know if anyone said Pluto. We did not see. That's right. Moose was Eddie, not Clyde. Yeah. Oh, oh, his name was Moose. Moose. Great name for a small dog. Yeah. I thought there was a Clyde, though. I thought I saw there was a Clyde. All right. Let's do that one. Pluto. Yeah. Let's get it out. Show me Pluto. Just like it's not a planet is not on this list. Not on this list. Pluto's boring.
Starting point is 00:33:15 Did Pluto even make the... Oh, man, really? Pluto made the cut. Oh, that sucks. Yeah, not even a one... How about Goofy? Did Goofy make the cut? Goofy also did not make the cut.
Starting point is 00:33:28 Oh, wow. Or did not even get a vote. Not even one submission. Damn, dude. All right. Five answers. No, four answers left on the board. Well, if I was a witch, I'd want your little dog, too. That's Toto.
Starting point is 00:33:41 I don't know if I was a pet. maybe I like him as a pet then of course we've been doing pretty good with cartoons we haven't said Marmaduke or Snoopy I'm saying stuff because Scott's out of X's so I'm just like talking and say whatever you want
Starting point is 00:33:57 yeah I'm sure that'll keep Brian from hitting that button that starts the timer Beethoven Beethoven the movie oh Jesus why do you tell him that Scott No it's going now it's going Snoopy oh I like Snoopy My good answer. Good answer.
Starting point is 00:34:13 All right. I forgot these were recent. Maybe we should know. Okay, wait. Show me, Snoopy. No, Snoopy. He's the best dog. He's the World War I.
Starting point is 00:34:24 Poopoopi, Pooh. Did not make it on the list. Well, so Scott wins with 19 points. Let's look at the ones you could have chosen. Both of you guys like comic books. Amaze neither of you chose Supergirl's dog. Yeah, I thought about it. I kept telling myself, no, this wasn't recent,
Starting point is 00:34:40 but I forgot we have a whole new list. that we just did. Because we were just talking about crypto, not that kind, but you know. Right. That's right. We were. Came up. Speaking of animated dogs, more recent animated dog.
Starting point is 00:34:53 Courage? Doug from up. Yeah, Doug. That's his name. I couldn't think the stupid name. Because he comes with that voice box. He comes with that voice box. Yep.
Starting point is 00:35:00 Yeah. This one, video game dog. So, oh, I guess he's in the movie. He's in the TV show adaptation of it, too. Dog meat. Oh, dog meat from fallout. I didn't even think. Sorry, gamers.
Starting point is 00:35:13 You'd want that to be your dog? Gamers, we heard you. No, he is an awesome dog. He's like very loyal. He's awesome. He's great. He goes out and gets some materials for you, doesn't he or something? He can help you like snuff out.
Starting point is 00:35:25 He can go sniff out some like hidden items that you want. Yeah, that's right. And he can also find out of radiated. He's not irradiated as far as I know. But isn't everything in that world a little irradiated? Yeah. Dog meat's great though. Love him.
Starting point is 00:35:39 Finally, number 10. And they can play basketball. Airbud. Randy, I'm sorry, Randy, I let you down. I forgot about it. That's one of his favorite movies, right? He likes Major League and Airbud.
Starting point is 00:35:51 His two favorite sports movies. Heck with the natural or field of dreams. It's Airbud and, yeah. Good stuff. It's courage up there because I really would love to have courage. A dog running around being friendly. Oh, yeah. You talked about number 11.
Starting point is 00:36:07 You never chose him. Oh, Beethoven was number 11. Let's see, rounding out your top ones. Ein from Cowboy Bebop. Snoopy was number 13. Wishbone, number 14. Astro from the Jetsons. K-9 from Doctor Who, kind of a dog.
Starting point is 00:36:24 Brain from Inspector Gadget. Cheddar from Brooklyn Nine-Nine, Little Corgi. Courage the cowardly dog, number 20, Brian. Nice. Yeah. Muffet from Battlestar Galactica. Oh, Muffin. Why didn't I think a Muffet?

Starting point is 00:36:50 Toto, number 310, from Nightmare before Christmas. Ace from Batman Beyond. Two people said Alf. Alf's not a dog, folks. He wants to eat a cat. That makes sense. I like it. Yeah, kind of. But it's also...
Starting point is 00:37:03 The vacuum wants to eat a cat, too. That doesn't make the vacuum a dog? But doesn't it? Doesn't it? They should have a fight. You know what? Those I robot people should. make a phaido. They should. Blue from Blue's Clues, because he'll go and get the mail, or at least tell you when it's here.
Starting point is 00:37:18 Cosmo from Guardian is the Galaxy. Why is that one so low on the list? It sounds like Borat's the daughter. Oh, right, yeah. Hell yeah. Cujo, dog from John Wood. The Boer, after the bite. Exactly.
Starting point is 00:37:32 Frank from Men in Black, Jake the Dog, Jonesy from Alien. That's a cat. Lady for Lady of the Tramp. Danook from the Lost Boys. Nibbler. Old Yeller, Scrappy, Scrappy-Doo. Scrappy, rude. And Vincent from Lost.
Starting point is 00:37:48 All right. Scrappy got to mention is that's a crime. What about the, what was that dog that was in, oh, well, duh, no, now, no, is Turner and Hooch. His name is Hooch. Wasn't there a dog named something in Turner and Hootch? In that Turner and Hooch? Oh, I'm such an idiot.
Starting point is 00:38:05 No, I do that all the time. Don't feel bad. Nobody, nobody said Hooch. Oh, look at that. Somebody did say goofy. found Goofy in the like the single vote list. So Goofy did get a vote. Okay. Yeah, it's still some confusion about that thing. There's a show title. Goofy did get a vote.
Starting point is 00:38:19 Yeah, Guppy did get a vote. Got all the votes. Real quick here, one of those should have been higher and it was Gromit. Gromit should have been in the top 10. I'm embarrassed for everybody. Yeah, Air Bud should not have been in the top 10. Gromit should have been. So, so should Vincent, the true hero of the television show lost. A bunch of millennials out there. All right. Here's the deal. Me and Dunaway, today, 4 p.m. we'll be doing a show. It's called Play Retro.
Starting point is 00:38:44 We'll be doing that a little bit later. Very excited about that. One thing we didn't do yet is tell these fine winners what they won. Brian, what did they win? Let's do that. Yeah, congratulations. Going to Caducey. You are getting a copy of Landlord's Super.
Starting point is 00:38:58 Like, I guess even your landlord has to have a super. Weird. And then Etherbourne, Deluxe Edition. Nice. But don't worry, Tyler Rowland. You're getting something, too. You're getting a copy of The Cub. Nice.
Starting point is 00:39:11 a digital copy of a small bear. Brian Dunaway, I look forward to tonight. It's going to be fun. So put on your big boy Mario paper pants. Yeah, my big boy, yeah, paper pants. We're going to talk about Mario. Nice. I'm such a fan of that series.
Starting point is 00:39:27 I freaking love it. It's had a few stumbles, but those first two games, oh, man, they're so good. So we're going to talk all about it. Check it out today, 4 p.m. Mountain Time on the Twitch channel, as well as YouTube. It'll be simul streamed. Thank you all for letting Brian walk. in here in his dirty shoes. Bye now. He should have taken him off at the door. I agree. I agree.
Starting point is 00:39:47 Born in a barn. Disgusting pig. All right. Let's do this. Isn't technology wonderful? Oh, it sure can be. But only when our pal Tom Merritt joins us who's been sitting very patiently and waiting to come in here. Hello, Tom. Hello, Tom. Hey, how's it going? Hi. Good. You? Good. Doing all right. Yeah. I'm awake. I'm going to see you in 14 weeks. Yeah, 14 weeks. Wow.
Starting point is 00:40:11 I don't like it. That's way too close. It's not good. I thought you meant you didn't like seeing me. No, no, I like seeing you. But I, you know, and that'll be, seeing all of you is going to be, you know. Yeah, yeah, yeah. I agree that it's too.
Starting point is 00:40:25 It's too soon. Not enough time. And then when it happens, it'll be done in a blink and you'll be like, wait, that's it. That was it? We're over. But then I'll sleep. Oh, man, well I sleep. You'll sleep so well.
Starting point is 00:40:35 Yeah. Well, I might have to hawk my bed and then I'll sleep. No, I don't know. It's a whole other story. Anyway, hey, Tom, you're here, and we're going to talk about some tech. We get questions from you guys now. That's how we do this for this segment. They've been coming in hot and fast, and they've all been real good.
Starting point is 00:40:51 This week's is no different. We've got a dude named Jack in Wyoming. Perfect name to have, I think, if you live in Wyoming. A little ditty. About Jack and Wyoming? Oh, yeah. Sucking on a chili dog. Does he live by the tasty freeze?
Starting point is 00:41:01 Maybe he does. If there's a tasty freeze, you can bet it's in Wyoming. That's right. He says this, Jack in Wyoming here. A question for Tom. The MacBook Neo is kind of a shot across the bow, right? I mean, kind of anyway. If Apple's willing to go budget,
Starting point is 00:41:18 does that force everyone else to rethink what affordable even means at a time where all this stuff is going up in price and not down? Asks Jack in Wyoming. So yeah, it's an interesting move. It's not that Apple's never had, you know, lower tier affordable options for various products. Yeah, sure. But this one is uniquely inexpensive at a time where everyone's being told how expensive for RAM is. maybe they skirt that because there's only 8 gigabyte of RAM in there and no more.
Starting point is 00:41:47 You cannot add RAM to that. Zero RAM adding. But it is being widely reviewed really well. People think it's a damn good value for what it is, $600, I believe, $5.99. Anyway, Tom, let's answer that question. What do you think about this whole deal? Yeah, I think a lot of different things about this. First of all, I think, hey, guess what?
Starting point is 00:42:10 I can get a Lenovo idea pad Slim 3 for $550 right now at Best Buy, and it has 16 gigs a ramp. So there is a credible counterpoint from people who are into Windows laptops to say, you got a range of affordable options out there, and some of them are quite comparable to the MacBook Neo. I think the really good answer from the Apple side of the argument is, yes, but the MacBook Neo is, yes, but the MacBook Neo is, is well constructed. It doesn't have quite as flimsy of material. You know, it feels solid, feels like a MacBook. You get the Mac operating system, the full Mac operating system. I think that's something people may miss is that it, when they hear, oh, it has an iPhone processor, they're going to think, oh, so it's like the iOS, but on a laptop form. It is MacOS. It's just
Starting point is 00:43:02 running on that processor. So the way that MacOS can run on an arm processor that's an M series, It can run on the arm processor that's an A series. A series just isn't quite as powerful. So you're getting full Mac operating system and everything. And for $599, I think it's a scream and deal. I think it compares well to most Windows machines in the same price range. You can find cheaper Windows machines that also have cheaper specs and cheaper builds and all of that as well. So you've got more options.
Starting point is 00:43:31 Going towards the like inflation buster part of the argument, I do think that's something I've been saying for a long time is, And this also applies to the tariffs just because the prices and the cost of materials go up, whether it's by tariffs or other inflationary measures like oil prices going up, doesn't mean the company has to raise its price. Price is determined not just by supply. That's the supply part of it, like, ooh, the cost went up. Price is also determined by demand. And if you won't pay more for the same product, they have to keep the price lower.
Starting point is 00:44:08 So I don't know that it's a shot across the bow by Apple to be, you know, and I'm not trying to overcharacterize what Jack's saying, but you could read that as like Apple's saying, aha, everyone in York. I dare you to go a low like this. You are all going to have to raise your prices, but we do not. I don't think it's like that. I think Apple just looked at it and said, hey, you know what?
Starting point is 00:44:30 We can make an affordable laptop that's going to get new people into the Apple ecosystem. Once we get them in, we're very good at keeping them in. and getting them to use other products like iPhones and such. So let's do that. I don't think it was a zero consideration that, you know, inflationary pressure means that a more affordable MacBook will sell. Well, I'm sure that was a big part of the strategy. But I don't know if I characterize it as a shot across the bow so much as a very good strategy
Starting point is 00:45:00 given the current economic system and what Apple can do when it owns the whole stack and can fine-tune an operating system for a change. chip they make. Yeah, I agree with that. Also, it speaks kind of highly of that particular iPhone chip. The A-series chips are pretty powerful. They're not slouches when it comes to, you know. They're not even using the one that's in the 17. They're using the one that's in the 16. Yeah, it's the one in my phone here. Yeah, yeah, same for me. Swap mine out yet. But so, all right, no, this is all good. I guess the other thing to mention is that this is also a long line of Apple moves that was happening with Steve Jobs' around. There was always these times where they go,
Starting point is 00:45:38 All right, all of our strictly white or in some cases black, just speaking from aesthetics, now we're going to introduce this very colorful thing to do. Yeah. And here you go. And it's cheaper. And hey, college students. It's high school. The entry level, maybe a little bit educational.
Starting point is 00:45:55 Yeah. No, it feels very much like the color IMAC thing that they did at the end of the 90s, right? Or right at the beginning of the 2000s. Yeah. where it was, you know, affordable, easy to use, all in one. Critics called it underpowered and ugly. I've really seen anybody called the Neo ugly, honestly. There probably is somebody out there.
Starting point is 00:46:15 I mean, it looks, yeah, I think they're clean. But I have seen lots of criticisms that it's underpowered, you know. Sure. And it is, but for that price and for... I mean, it depends of what you mean. Like, if you want to play games on it, like, oh, yeah, it's a little underpowered. But, you know, I can do a whole lot of video editing on it or anything. I hear through the grapevine from a friend at Apple that it plays World of Warcraft.
Starting point is 00:46:33 really well. Yeah, but is that the most intensive? No, it's not. It's not, but it does. Like, it can play games, sure. Yeah, it'll play games. Will it play the latest things with all your gray tracing and your whatnot? No, of course not.
Starting point is 00:46:47 But will it play World of Warcraft as well as Wow can play right now? Yeah, sure. So all I'm saying is Mac gamers have very few choices. Maybe World of Warcraft is in your future on your little yellow Mac book in school when you should be paying attention instead you're playing. You know what I'm saying? The grand tradition, Tom. I do.
Starting point is 00:47:05 And you should not do that. No, you shouldn't do, don't do that. Don't listen to us. Or no, listen to us now, but not before. Hear me now. Believe me later. Talk to me later. Well, that's great.
Starting point is 00:47:18 I think that that not only answers the question, but maybe a few people out there who may be on the fence about what they're doing next for their kind of work-a-day, portable solution. They may be on the fence here trying to decide. Maybe you helped a few people, you know, at least think of some alternatives. as well as maybe what the advantages of this one are. You've got a desktop. You just want something for like,
Starting point is 00:47:39 yeah, I want to go to Starbucks and work there for a little while. This is an easy, cheap solution for that. Yeah, yeah. I have to admit, I kind of really want one. I can't justify it. But I really do because they're just cute. I wish I had like a niece that was old enough that I could buy one for her, you know,
Starting point is 00:47:58 and then steal it sometimes. Yeah, why not? Well, Tom Merritt, I know that, there's always something going on in your world. Why don't you tell the fine folks here what any of that is right now? Daily tech news show every day, Monday through Friday, sometimes even on Saturdays, occasionally on Sundays. You get all the tech news. If you've been following all the anthropic stuff with the Department of Defense, where you have been talking about that and giving you a lot more context. I did a whole episode on Saturday just about what the law says regarding declaring a company a supply chain risk. and what the reality of what the government has done so far versus the perception.
Starting point is 00:48:38 And there's a little bit about whether the perception is enough. Maybe they don't need the reality. But not all the paperwork has been filed. So what that means for precedent setting is questionable. But if you like that kind of analysis, that kind of understanding, get Daily Tech News Show in your life. If you haven't already, thanks to everybody who already does at Daily Technewshow.com or wherever fine podcasts are traded and sold. I cannot recommend what Tom just said enough. get the understanding, not just the headlines.
Starting point is 00:49:04 All right, you guys. There you go. Dig in deep. The headlines. Daily music headlines. Yeah. Actually, you know what? You get a bit of both. That's also true.
Starting point is 00:49:12 Yeah. We got it all. He's got you just won headlines. He's got you covered. Tom Merritt. Have a fantastic time and your niece is getting something in the mail soon. It won't be a MacBook, but it will be something cool. I can't wait.
Starting point is 00:49:24 Talk to you soon. Bye now. Turns out she's a massive Kirby fan. Oh, cool. So I must send her some Kirby stickers. Yeah. Kirby art and stuff. You've done a bunch of those.
Starting point is 00:49:33 Yeah. Even the weird one that looks like a finger. I'm sending her one of those. It's a little disturbing. Scott, want to see something just came off the 3D printer? Show to me. Show it. Now, hot off the presses.
Starting point is 00:49:42 Holy shit, yes. A little frog! Yes, let's see if I can, what do we got that's, I can put behind it? Just a blank sheet of paper would be nice, Brian. Maybe that's work. A white sheet of pipe or somewhere.
Starting point is 00:49:56 Yeah, that'll work. There you go. Oh, look at him. A little frog. Little frog with a little, oops, little hook in the back. I wonder where those are going. But I think he's too big for charms, because this is a, here's a charm bracelet. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:50:08 He's a little big. Yeah, a little large. Like, he needs to be the size of this little Cyclops. What is that a bunny? Cyclops bunny. Yeah. Okay. This is from the, it was given to me as a gift from the Cyclops Army.
Starting point is 00:50:22 Oh, look at that. I like that. Yeah. Was this from the, that was that character you went to. For your decadence thing, yeah. Yeah. That's awesome. Oh, speaking of, well, it's not decadence, but EDM.
Starting point is 00:50:33 Yeah. What's his name's coming here this weekend? Dead Mouts again. And my wife goes. Oh, really? We should go again. We should go again. And I said, well, A, are the tickets free?
Starting point is 00:50:45 Yeah. That's a big consideration. And B, we just were there last June. Do we really need to do this again? It's really going to be that different in concert. Yeah, because my beef with all that sort of thing, but going right back is that place was, everybody was on some form of hallucinogenic or molly or something. I understand brave culture and I respect it and it can be what it is.
Starting point is 00:51:07 But I am just not that guy. So I end up just, I know that in my car or in the house or me out walking the dog or mowing the lawn with earbuds in listening to Dead Mouse, my favorite tracks of his, I will have as good or better experience because that's the kind of curmudgeon I am. But keep in mind, in Utah, you know, the ravers are going to be drinking two cans of monster energy. Holy shit.
Starting point is 00:51:32 That's their, that's their drug of choice. It's like, oh, I, I had two Celsius before I came in here. I can't go in there then. And a Topo Chico. And a ginger beer. Hey, man, got any topo chico? I've got friends who are going and they're going with LSD. Oh, geez, really.
Starting point is 00:51:55 Yeah, I can't remember what all. They don't enforce anything at these things. They just go. People just go. Yeah. And they, I mean, if you can get it through the, through the,
Starting point is 00:52:05 you know, through the gates, basically, then you're, then you're probably fine. I guess it's ingest it before you leave, right? You take it before you walk in there.
Starting point is 00:52:13 Take it before you walk in there. A week from Friday, I'm going to go see Nick Lowe here in Denver. Cruel to be kind. What's so funny about peace, love, and understanding, the original version.
Starting point is 00:52:24 I knew the bride when she used to rock and roll, the original version, like, guy. That guy. Brian goes Nick low when the rest of us go Nick high. That's right. When everyone goes Nick high, I go Nick low. And guess what? Free ticket. That's why I'm going. Nice. Yeah. See, free tickets are a thing for me. Free tickets are key right now. Yeah, right now they're very expensive. And if somebody said to me, hey, I got free tickets to see Dead Mouse this weekend, I would probably make, it would be, I would do that. Yeah, for sure. I'll still be the only sober person there and all these weird Molly guys will be touching me. And it's just not like that. Weird Molly guys. guys. Yeah. That guy last time really weirded me out.
Starting point is 00:53:02 Anyway, let's get to some feedbacks. Yeah, sounds good. Not microphone feedback, hopefully, but here we go. That's the wrong one. That's the news one. No, that's not it. My soundboard's after. I've got to figure out what's going on with this thing.
Starting point is 00:53:15 All right, let's try this one. This is about the jugs of pee. It just needs to be restarted, I think. Anyway, I'll do that now. Okay. Chris wrote in. It says some time ago, Scott mentioned that he and his family were drawing on the stairwell that led down to his office, I believe.
Starting point is 00:53:30 How is that progress or project progressing? Is it a thing anymore? How is that progress? How is that progress? If so, are there pictures available? My family and I are debating doing something similar. Just wanted some ideas. All right.
Starting point is 00:53:41 So here's the update on that thing. It's still on the wall. It is unfinished and here's why. We got to a certain point where we started to notice when we're doing new stuff, where we started the, because we're using Sharpies. Yeah. The Sharpie ink is, absorbing into this paint and fading.
Starting point is 00:54:02 Oh, okay. It looks bad where we started and it's slowly gotten worse on all, you know, as it goes along how far along we've done it. And then now it's all caught up to where we last did it. And it's all looking kind of gnarly. So right now it sits unfinished. The goal is we just haven't done it yet. We've been so busy. But our plan last year was sand the whole thing, start over.
Starting point is 00:54:22 Wow. With just like a different finish, like a paint that's good for the ink. Yeah, yeah. Something less oil-based or something. Maybe I'm doing about sanding it. You can just hit it with kills. Oh, that's true, right? There's like a primer.
Starting point is 00:54:33 Yeah. Might be able to, how do I get, I got to get rid of what's on there now, though. You cover it with kills. The K-I-L-S, it's a great primer that is super. Is it like it covers? Can I get colors of it? I think you can get, well, don't you want white?
Starting point is 00:54:50 What color do you want? The color we, well, the color of the wall right now. Okay. Z, people are saying it's K-I-L-Z. Oh yeah, KALZ. All purpose here it is interior external. Okay. Yeah. So the reason I ask is because the walls are not white.
Starting point is 00:55:06 Oh, well, this will cover the white too. I mean, this will cover whatever the color the walls are. So we could just make it white. You could just make it white, but you can also, they can, at your local Home Depot, they could probably put a little color in there and make it whatever color you want. Everyone should go to Home Depot and go, I'm here for some kills. where's the kills i'm sure you won't get in any trouble for that yeah yeah all right i'll look into this i didn't know there you go and that'll that'll just cover right up no need to sand no need to you know just put one more layer
Starting point is 00:55:38 of primer over everything this is the sequel too kills two kills two yeah there's a little bit of character development but you really have to see the first kills to understand It picks up right where the first kills left off. And, you know, with the two characters facing off. Different directors and stuff, but same. Different directors, so it's totally a little bit different. But, yeah. But I hear the original author was involved with both of them.
Starting point is 00:56:03 Yeah, and Rotten Tomatoes likes it. Yeah, I'm all in. Thank you, ladies and gentlemen. That was our act. We'll be here every week. All right. Here is one from Thomas from Missouri. he's always writing in saying good stuff.
Starting point is 00:56:17 Here's what he says today. Hello, souffle and Bon Bon. Okay, I like that one. Yeah, I feel like that one's new. I haven't heard that yet. So I want to make it perfectly clear that this is not safe for work. I suggest you listen to this
Starting point is 00:56:31 where nobody else can hear it. But I find this thing kind of amusing. So here goes. If you put the phrase, a seal pushed me into Google Translate. So I'm going to do it like the animal. Yeah, so translate. com.
Starting point is 00:56:45 I'm going to do that right now. Or like the singer. So I can find it. Okay, we're entering the text. A seal pushed me. Yep. And I'm going to play this out loud for everybody. So I'll all hear it.
Starting point is 00:56:56 In Google Translate, going from English to French. So I'll do that now. Oops. Where's French? F. There we go. Just give me French. I'm got.
Starting point is 00:57:09 Yeah. All right. I think I know what this is going to say. Let's give it a shot. Just by reading it. How come I didn't? Oh, geez. It didn't work right.
Starting point is 00:57:22 All right. I'm going to hit play. We'll see what we get. Oh, geez. Oh, my gosh. Let's try that again. Foke my pussy. Come on.
Starting point is 00:57:34 Is that real? Yeah, clearly. This is how it's spelled. So you can see that, you know, we're not playing. We're not playing you guys for fools here. Right. One more time for just for good measure. A foeke ma pussie
Starting point is 00:57:49 La la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la Sle A seal pushed me A seal pushed me So next time I go to France Yes And I say this They're gonna go
Starting point is 00:58:07 Oh we're sorry about our seal Sometimes they get a little aggressive We don't know what this happened to the seal population I did it bad. Oh my gosh, that's funny. All right, you're right. It wasn't safe for work, but we did it anyway. Nope, but we played it like 11 times, even though.

Starting point is 00:59:19 I like that. And all sorts of stuff. He's great. And you know what? Here's the thing. There's some dips in his catalog. But every time there's a dip, he comes back with something even better. Like, Volume 4 is one of the greatest Joe Jackson albums.
Starting point is 00:59:37 Like, there was a run there where body and soul, laughter and lust. Oh, there was like another one right around. that, not in day. It's funny. He likes the, he likes the, this and that, like,
Starting point is 00:59:51 um, oh, right. Album titles. Yeah. But, um, body and soul,
Starting point is 00:59:55 laughter and lust. I think there was one between the two. That's just fantastic. And then it was like, all right, a little bit of a dip. And then, um,
Starting point is 01:00:02 came back. That's, that's, that's the one. That's him. It's funny to see him playing a, uh, a saxophone because he's a pianist.
Starting point is 01:00:10 That is a sax, isn't it? That's weird. Not really known for that. No. No, but... 71 years old. Wow.
Starting point is 01:00:18 Yeah. Okay. I'm going to listen to it. Tell me that album you thought was really good again. What was it? Volume four. Volume four. Okay.
Starting point is 01:00:25 It's called Volume four. I read or watched... Did you listen to Venusum yesterday? I did. That big giant red reminder worked. Good. Excellent. So you need a new giant red reminder for Joe Jackson.
Starting point is 01:00:37 It really was good. The thing that weirded me out, I watched the... It may not have been a full music video, but like a visualization one or whatever. Yeah. She looks like... Seriously, like the librarian walked in and started ripping out EDM tunes. She totally does. She is like, for me, like, Tina got a new pair of glasses the other day.
Starting point is 01:00:54 I'm like, can you wear those like all the time? Yeah, you always be my librarian. Can you always wear these? Because I've got, apparently, I've got a real librarian thing. I've got a whole, I've got a Lisa Loeb thing apparently. Oh, yeah, dude. I had a big crush on her, too. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:01:09 There's something about, you know, something about, I would have. What is that? I'll happily make passes at girls who wear glasses. Egon's girlfriend and the first Ghostbusters. What's her name? Yes. From designing women. Pots. Antipots.
Starting point is 01:01:22 I used to have a big thing for Annie Pots. Yeah. All right. We have a type that we share. But not Linda from, not Linda Belcher for some reason. No. I think there's a personality issue there. I love her, but I don't know.
Starting point is 01:01:37 There's a little bit more than that. There's nothing there where I go, oh, man, I sure wish I knew her in real life. Right. Right. Tina Faye. Oh, Tina Faye is a good one. Yep. Who's, I want one more so I can have closure.
Starting point is 01:01:50 Yep, yep. One more for closure. Oh, who's that blonde that always plays the sarcastic best friend in rom-coms? Oh, she wears glasses. She's in that. Oh, Velma is a good example. Oh, yeah, Velma, yeah, everyone loves Velma. But the one who's, you're talking about Arrested Development, and then she's also, you know, about Greer.
Starting point is 01:02:11 Are you talking about Greer? Oh, I like Judy Greer. Judy Greer is a good example when she wears. glasses. Zoe de Chanel when she wears glasses? 100%. Good one. Zoe Day Chanel. Good one. We said Lisa Loeb.
Starting point is 01:02:23 You guys red on air light over there at the chat? What's going on? How red does our light have to be? And how many bad ways are you going to spell Lisa Loeb? Lisa Loub. All right. That's going to do it for today. Brian, let's play a song. Let me ask you to put something.
Starting point is 01:02:39 The request or specifically requested that this be backed by the Dear Martha theme. Do you have that handy? I do. Let me pull it up. That is right here in the core group. Hold on. Here we go.
Starting point is 01:02:50 That's fully volume it. Here we go. My dear Scott and Brian, the years have treated me well. From the humid south to the frigid north and now firm roots along the foothills of these great Rocky mountains. Yes, well treated indeed. But friends, the years move swift to swift and now here I am 41. Beautiful wife and two incredible kids. It can't get better than this, but I know it changes in a flash.
Starting point is 01:03:22 We all do. And I have a secret when only those closest to me know. I'm a sucker for musicals. Give me your dancing queen, your dear Theodosia, and by God you can put me somewhere over the rainbow, I defer to you. Educate me my cover friend with a song that we must all tap our toes to and dance around as if we were children.
Starting point is 01:03:48 Yours in this life and the next, Wes. Ah, it's Wes. Not that, Wes. Different Wes. We have multiple Wess. Many Wes. Weston Wright in our chat room. Burgess Diesel.
Starting point is 01:04:00 Happy birthday, man. 41. There he is in the chat right there. Congrats, dude. Go party. That's great. All right. Musicals, dude, I'm a sucker form too.
Starting point is 01:04:12 I try to find something good from Little Shop harrars. I don't have a lot of good covers of songs from Little Shop of Hars. Rent, it's all 500,000, 600 minutes. But then I thought, oh, the big daddy of them all, sound of music, you know, spinning around on the countryside with Mary Poppins and a little song called the Lonely Goat Heard. Now, in 2011, a band called the Brooklyn Rund Funk Orchestra. Yes, that one, not to be confused with other Brooklyn run funk orchestras. Put out an album, a tribute album to the sound of music called The Hills Are Alive. This whole album is freaking fantastic.
Starting point is 01:04:53 It is so, so good. It is funky. It is rock. The thing you're about to hear, it could have been done by Billy Squire at parts. Oh, weird. I guess that's not a huge, good point. But anyway, here is the lonely goat herd by Brooklyn Rund Funk Orchestra. Thanks for listening. The Frogpants Network lives at Frogpants.com.
