Hello folks welcome to Nate land I'm Nate Bargetti Aaron Weber Brian Bates welcome everybody you know I've debated of changing seeing what people thought about changing hello folks to what to let's go folks is that not maybe better let's go folks yeah it's like i feel like it gets us out of the mix of everybody being hello folks like every people say hello folks folks yeah just as a normal expression as a normal expression and i mean i've had people say hello folks i mean because there's been a couple times someone said someone said it and then i think like they're saying it to us and then you're like oh they're just that's just how the guy speaks yeah so you want to do let's go let's go folks because we're making fun of let's go no yeah yeah i mean that's just how the guy speaks yeah so you want to do let's go let's go folks because we're making

fun of let's go no yeah yeah i mean that's not bad i'm on board people are commenting let's go everywhere now yeah after last week's episode so yeah i feel like we can't see what everybody uh see what everybody thinks about see how it feels see how it feels let's go folks like that's so specific that it's like if you say that then you definitely know who they are right like that's how we can all talk to each other because nobody says and then we're just trashing the let's go people and they think oh that's cool you say let's go you're like yeah i do say it yeah and then we all of us folks know we're better than them and that's the real goal here yeah we just want everybody to know we're better

you think you're better than me that's the attitude we bring no i don't know let's go folks i like it that's the new podcast tagline you think you're better than me you think you're better than me i'm sorry what'd you say do you think you're better than me? You think you're better than me? I'm sorry, what did you say? Did you think you're better than me? Let's go, folks. I like it. Let's see what people think. I think it's fun. I think it makes it, you know, stands out. It, like, makes it more, you know, because I had a hello, folks, recently.

And, well, one was a listener, and it was great. And so we talked to them. But then sometimes it is. It's a mix of, you was great, and so we could talk to them. But then sometimes it is. It's a mix of you're like, what happened this weekend? So I had a mix-up. I went to have a pretty awesome weekend. Great Father's Day. Happy Father's Day to all the dads out there.

We went to Derek Trucks, Tedeschi Trucks concert, and we're friends with Derek and Susan. They're both wonderful, wonderful people, amazing people to be friends with. They're, you know, I mean, her voice is unreal. And then he's a prodigy, like a true child prodigy. He was in the Allman Brothers, his uncle's Butch Allman. And he joined the Allman Brothers at nine years old. Harper's about to be nine. Nine.

I asked him, I was like, how crazy is that? That's pretty crazy. I never thought about it like that. When you put it, Harper's about to be nine, and it would be like she's going on tour with the Almond Brothers. I'd like to see that. And when he was nine, he would play, he told me three to four songs.

And then by the time he was 11, he was just full time in the band and doing their full tour, 11. 11 years old. And good enough to be on the stage at the Allman Brothers. That's crazy. So still pretty good.

Still not bad. He's still, yeah. I mean, I was definitely the band to allow kids to do that. I don't know anything about bands. Like, people are just trash bands. You're like, if any band could have a kid and you would think he's good enough, Allman Brothers are the band for that. Yeah, yeah.

You know. Makes sense. It wasn't Led Zeppelin, where I don't know. Did y'all talk about Jacksonville Jaguars football? We did. He's very excited about the Jags. Trevor Lawrence. Yep.

He's a big Jags fan. And so it was awesome to get to watch him. And then, I mean, they're just great, great people. Anyway, so we're standing. We got to stand on stage. great people anyway so that so we're standing we got to stand on stage and um there uh a lot of people uh came up and said what's up and people listen to the podcast too and they so i'm standing on stage and this dude walks up and he goes is it do you always feel like you take the obligatory is that the word right obligatory picture and uh i've had so many people come up and say like hey big fan whatever

and i go no no it's fine man and he goes oh you don't feel that and i was like i go oh you mean of just a picture of the band like he's like so he was like straight up dude i put my arm on him like i go nah man and And he looked like a Harley guy. Yeah. You know? So it definitely did not. I was super surprised. He did not.

He didn't fit who I think would be at the show. Yeah. And not on my show, not Derek Truck's show. But hey, I was like, nah, man. I mean, I touched him. I go, nah, it's fine. He goes, you don't? And I'm like, oh, you mean of them.

Yeah, he's just making conversation, dude. He's like, yeah, dude, I'm just trying to, you don't want to take a picture of the onstage? And I go, I guess. And then we took, I mean, I was taking some pictures. And that's what he's talking about. And so that made me, that's almost what started the hello folks into the let's go folks yeah speaking of pictures we had after we talked about this last week uh at my shows in chattanooga this weekend i opened for jeff allen and immediately

after one of the shows he sold out every show immediately after the show someone ran up to me and goes hey i watched the podcast yeah love it and then they had jeff take a picture of uh of me with them yeah right after i mean this is right after the show yeah he thought it was he thought it was funny yeah yeah that ever had yeah for as as if you're a fan and you're listening, I mean, just respect to the headliner. Just don't make him take the picture. You know, it's always even a weird thing, too. You don't always, like, come up and be, you know. It's like, go say something to you.

Yeah. And this is all very specific. I know people are going to be like, hey, man, I'm just trying to say hello. I don't need to follow your rules. You don't have to follow the rules. You can do whatever you want to go do uh but you tend to people always say that i'd always i remember big j had a great answer to that because people always come up and sometimes and say uh man i thought you were funnier than the headliner that's that's like a

that's like a famous thing that people say and uh j always had a great thing that he said he goes i mean i did 20 i did 15 minutes yeah he's like there's a big difference so it's like if you say that to go like yeah i'm got to if you're the middle act that's notoriously the best gig in the world sweet spot it's a sweet spot check started out host just went up. The audience is excited. They're settled in, and you get to go do 15 minutes and murder your best 15. That's right. You can do the best 15 in your life because nobody knows your material, whereas the headliner is probably working on a new hour or something. Yes.

He's got a new hour. He's got a new whatever. And so it's like that tends to be. Not saying a headliner should be. know whatever and so it's like that tends to be not saying a headliner should be as you headline my goal is to like i need to make you forget the i mean in a good and bad way but my job is to hopefully you forget who even the opening act was because i'm trying to do that good and so that's that's typically what you know that's what I try to do, make everybody forget you guys.

And I mainly go out and tell them. I start rumors up there. Y'all don't ever hear the beginning of my set. That'd be the last time you guys see those guys. Aaron stole some stuff off the bus. And Bald Eagle over here. You know, I don't even know how he got here uh but that's uh yeah i don't know i don't know people i don't want people wonder those insights of you know they care they are just like i'm just trying to say i'm a big fan yeah people be like hey uh you know you were funnier than the headliner or something. And you're like, yeah, but if I were the headliner, you wouldn't be here at all.

Yeah. You didn't come to see me. Yeah, yeah, yeah. And there's a big difference between doing 15 minutes and an hour. I mean, two, they don't realize. They go, I'd like to watch you for the hour. You're like, eh, you wouldn't have. Yeah.

You think you would have. About 20 minutes in, you'd be like, where's the next guy? Yeah, yeah. You would say it about the other guy. Yeah. When you start headlining and people really come for someone, then it just changes. I feel like that kind of goes away because they're just excited to see

who they want to see. But then you still want the show to be good. I mean, that's how when I'm getting you guys openings, I want the show to be good. I mean, that's how when I'm getting you guys openings, I want the show to be great. I would not bring you on the road. If you bomb, that's how you get off the road. You'd always hear stories about that. Sometimes people will bring bad opening acts,

so the headliner then looks better. And I never understood that. I've always heard people have done that. But I never understood that. I would think heard people have done that, but I've never understood that. I would think, because I want the show to be better, I would be furious. If I followed and you bombed, I would be so mad. I got to fix your nonsense.

I got to go up and now get this crowd in the mood for a show. You should just be, they're teed up. Just go have a great set, murder, and then get out of there. That's all we want. Yeah, you have the confidence knowing you're going to do great no matter how good the feature is. You're going to still not have a problem. The comics I know who bring really weak openers are veterans

who haven't written a new act in years, and they're kind of just sailing, and they don't want a strong opener because they have to work because they're doing the same act yeah and so when you got to build i mean it helps you build a a better act when you have to follow good acts in the crowd i mean you give them it's a show you're it's a whole show so you want them to be like yeah this whole thing was awesome the The whole experience was great. So, but overall, yeah, we went. So I went to, yes, we got to go to the Tedeschi trucks. And then we got to go to NASCAR.

NASCAR was in Nashville. And first time it's been there, I think, 37 years or something like that. Wow. And it was awesome. How many people were there? I mean, it looked like hundreds of thousands. Yeah it was awesome. How many people were there? I mean, it looked like hundreds of thousands. Yeah, I don't know what the attendance is, but, I mean, it had to be. It was sold out.

Was it the track out in, like, Gladeville? Yeah, yeah. Wow. It was awesome. I mean, it was just cool to see and cool to see everybody out there. The race was great. I had, had like so our neighbors all went with their everybody brought their all their daughters came and uh so i've i had them like betting i've get them in and getting these kids gambling like yeah uh but they loved it like my daughter and

all the other kids they uh they like loved it because i said all right y'all get a pick two people that you think is going to win and whoever wins i'll give each of you 20 bucks and like they went in teams so then they went pick and it's funny because they don't know like some of them had like uh they're my daughter like her team her and carter their little friend she uh they first pick they go all right i want to pick uh like number 70 something 78 or something which i'm not trashing 78 but he was in the back and so i was like all right well don't all right i was like pick from i was like you see the way they were lined up i was like i'd probably pick some cars up to the top and harper and one uh one girl

picked she goes i'll take 48 harper goes i'll take 47 and you're like well there's numbers on the cars it's prices right yeah it's like there's not i go let's pick a let's pick a number that you see out there you know but i mean they were picking some cars you're like all right let's not let's not go to i did it with uh kentucky derby with them too one time i go y'all can pick a horse and whoever wins i'll give you if your horse wins i'll give you 20 bucks and they uh and i mean there's they do they just start picking the name the name they like and all this stuff and you know it's a guy that's like 100 to 1 you're like all right well let's i want y'all to have fun and your horse

might get shot before the race starts so let's let's maybe go up a little bit and pick a different uh kyle larson won the race he's number five he was i mean no i'm not talking about nascar but i've never seen someone more dominant yeah i mean just it looked like he shouldn't have no one else should have been out there he would just he would be it looked like a joke like he would be he'd be they'd restart it and he'd be like six cars back and then he just just drives by everybody like you're going is his car just allowed to be faster than everybody yeah i mean just was like gone dude uh it was pretty funny so in racing if someone starts in the back it's almost impossible for them to catch up uh yeah i think so i mean it's just your their car is not

good enough and so if your car is not i mean you're you know if you drive your car versus you're in your next to if you're in your honda accord and you're racing a ferrari like it's like it's going to be different and i think that that's just what it is i would like to see that though yeah i mean it was brian racing in his Honda Accord. Yeah. Because right before the race starts, his blinker's on. You boys ready? And there's just a girl out there with two, what's the, you know. The flags. The flags about to go start.

Sir, your hazard's on real fast. And he goes, oh, sorry. And that's how before the race starts. He's got his belongings. Seatbelt on. Checks everything. 10 and 2. 10 and 2.

Mirror. Mirror is on. Well, you're just going forward. No one's going to be coming behind you. You don't have to worry about your mirror. Still like it where it should be. Had a little squirrel issue, so this car may not go as I'd like. Yeah.

The squirrel runs out and watches the race and then goes back in i pull into the pits and a squirrel jumps out that's the your pits are just them hitting a broom on the top of the hood just trying to get the squirrels out of get out that's all you hear in brian's pits did he need gas? No, no, he's got a ton of gas. He's not going fast enough to burn it, but we have a squirrel issue. Uh, so we thought they all got out.

Get out, get out, get out, get out of here. Yeah. Your pit has just got wasp spray. They just, there's everybody,

you know, they always have that big gas tank. The guy walks out and it's wasp spray they just there's everybody you know they always have that big gas tank the guy walks out it's wasp spray it's just spraying trying to get the wasp nest out oh is that the pace car no no that gets brian bakes he's a track the pace car passes yeah it's got mothballs yeah no sponsors no sponsors comments uh blag daniels given the commitment you guys have to staying on topic i feel like this could have still been called the georgia episode and no one would have noticed yeah yeah we were about an hour in i was like i guess we're not touching i guess we're not doing

yeah uh i did not expect that to go the way it went, to be honest. I really thought we'd talk about Georgia. Jack from your house. I make jokes in online games for videos, and I've been struggling with where the line is as a Christian. It's good to hear you guys talk this out. This is by far one of the most serious episodes to date, but it's still so lighthearted, funny, and encouraging.

I make jokes in online games for videos that's a job i don't know i've been struggling where the line is as a christian like is your job real that's the line that's the line that he's like yeah the jokes are very good and easy uh is what i'm doing legal that's the that's the question you know man there's jobs that are coming but that's a big thing on tiktok you'll see is people are playing video games and they're all talking to each other and they're just like telling jokes and then they'll make compilations of those jokes and yeah and so that's like a i don't know if this is a full-time job but but it's like a fun thing that he does, a hobby, I'm sure.

Yeah. Maybe he does really well. You know, it's like, yeah, you can make fun of stuff, man. You can do whatever you want. It's like just be – just don't be hateful. Right. And that's where the online thing is, which I'm sure hopefully he's not. Christina Marshall.

Honestly, I was nervous about this one, but it was so good. Butterscotch buying tickets to Nate's show is just the best illustration of their friendship dynamic. Best part of my Wednesday every week. Pretty good. I actually went ahead and bought tickets to your show at the Opry House. Yeah. Even though I know I'm on it because I know there's going to be somebody

in my life last minute going to say, can we get tickets? Yeah. So I just went ahead and grabbed a couple. Who's going with your mom to the Ryman show? Probably my wife. Okay. Yeah. My old roommate texted me, how do I get in on this drawing to take Brian's mom to the show?

You could have a folk take your mom. Imagine your mom having to go out and go. She's like, who am I going with? with well it's someone we don't really know but this is the podcast i bet they're going to be great people yeah i would think i would put everybody oh yeah black daniels yeah black daniels you want a piece of this jack from your house we have to end up with online jokes like all right jack like i thought you can't turn it off uh opry yes grand old opry opry house uh almost sold out so make sure you get uh it's pretty crazy yeah same back to back i was wondering who you know back to back nights rhyman opry knocking them pretty fun yeah yeah and Opry.

What is knitty gritty i don't know define points get down to the brass tacks and that's the actual words for nitty that's what nitty is i don't know i mean i don't know so it's a made-up word yeah so what i'm saying is if i say knit and gritty then we're all agreeing that we're all just making up words yeah sure for some reason

my made-up word is not good enough for everybody goes goes, no, we agreed on this made-up word. And you're making up your other one. All words are made up. That's true. What's a word? All words matter. Oh, the Nitty Gritty Dirt Band. You heard of them?

A couple times. One of my favorite bands. I haven't heard of them a couple times. Fishing in the Dark. I know that song. Oh, that's them? Yeah, yeah fishing in the dark you know the nitty gritty dirt band you'll sing it and not sing the main lyrics you know it's like went in the dark that one fishing you know what's you and you were fishing and it was dark out and you're like if it doesn't ring a bell then you don't know you know when you tell someone to ask something yeah and they're like, if it doesn't ring a bell, then you don't know it. You know when you tell someone to ask something? Yeah. And they're like, I don't know.

Excuse me, is this Is This Seat Taken? Your Opry show's almost sold out, right? Yeah. They just get down to... Well, there's still some tickets left, but it's close. Yeah. When it gets down to individual seats, technically that's when they can start calling a sellout. But that's when I can start my tour. That's when you tour.

Yeah. Yeah. So you're like Aaron Land, but you do a show during a show. And your tickets are the individual seats that no one else wants to go to. That's right. Once you get done with your part, I'll take over. That's when my door sells. The biggest single ticket seller of all time. could be your thing only single only single tickets

uh one please even if it's a bogo even if it's a bogo well they're buy one get one free yeah you don't have to point that out to me i know that like the people that get upset about it. I'll take two then. But I feel like it's people that appreciate the extra seat next to them. They like it. That's where they put their water in there. Small popcorn. Can anything sit in that extra buy one, go and freeze seat? Yeah, whatever you want.

Okay. Thank you. Extra cup holder. Extra cup holder. Just the extra everything. And it goes. His fans are just, you know, which would be me. I would enjoy, you know, just to go alone, little room, step out,

look around. Show's great. Got to go to the bathroom. No, no little room, step out, look around. Show's great. Got to go to the bathroom. No, no, yeah, absolutely. Never feel ashamed asking, do you mind if I? Of course. The rhyming especially because it's. Brian agrees to wait until you get back.

That's part of the show. Brian's on stage and he goes, yeah, no, absolutely. He'll go, hey, Brian, do you mind if a few of us got to go to the bathroom? And he goes, yeah. You know what? I'll bounce you. I do too. So let's all just take five.

And then the doctor watches to see how many times they go to the bathroom to go. And then he hands out cards at the back. I noticed a lot of y'all went to the bathroom quite a bit. You know, and this show's at 4.30 in the afternoon so it seems crazy you know he's a urologist yeah there's something wrong i try to get in yeah uh because everybody's all right what were you gonna say the rhyming especially would be good because it's just church pews it's not individual seats you buy two tickets you can just sit in the middle of those two seats and have plenty of yeah dude i bought i went to a concert with it's just church pews it's not individual seats you buy two tickets you can just sit in the middle of those two seats and have plenty of yeah dude i bought i went to a concert with three tickets and one person didn't show up and it was the best concert i've ever been to my life it was actually

uh teske trucks oh really i had a third person didn't show up so two people could spread out and i was like oh at the rhyman yeah i was I was like, this is how it's meant to be seen. That's crazy that it was them. I've seen them a few times, man. Oh, yeah. Oh, I didn't know you were a big fan. Could have brought you out there. Glad we didn't.

Trevor Victor Heidi. The fish and pole analogy was perfect, Aaron. Thank you, Trevor. That's ridiculous. You said fish and hole, but fish and pole sounds good too. Yeah. Eric W., this was gold. Love you guys.

And John Fitz in, great. Have him back or Trey Kennedy, whoever is easier to get. John is such a good sport. He's one of the best about ribbing him. Yeah. About making, he laughs at himself. Yeah. Yeah.

Yeah. Yeah. Amy Sorsby. I love John Chris. I've been watching him for years. I was so excited when I saw the title of this episode. Nate mentions Brisket's Dry Bar Stand-Up, so I actually searched and watched it,

and it was surprisingly very funny. I think – this is the first time i'm reading it uh i think even funnier now that i feel like i've gotten to know him first the podcast dynamic makes it relatable like having breakfast as an actual friend which you can do also i followed aaron land which is very funny i just love how you guys always come in clutch with all things funny wh Wholesome laughter every time. I mean, Bates' breakfast is the one if you want to be friends.

Yeah. Who was that? Was that Amy? Amy Sorge. Amy, I'd love to be your friend. Very accessible. Yeah. It's funny that she...

So she looked up your special thinking it was not going to be that good. Apparently. Yeah. It was blown away that it was very funny. Surprise, she said. Surprisingly.

Surprisingly very funny. Yeah. Yeah. You know, I think fair enough. Mandy Van Dalsom. Dalsom. Dalsim. Neighbor gets in John Chris together is literally better than Christmas morning,

and I'm so glad you brought up the topic of let's go when i heard nate's ran on it i immediately thought of john and wanted them to hash it out together did not disappoint uh they uh i love you know let's go folks let's go folk i hope everybody likes it because i'm kind of really down you like it yeah i can get on board with it. How many O's and go? I don't know. Whatever makes fun of these people more. Okay. I think at least three.

Let's go, folks. It's so specific. Yeah. Originally, let's, hello, folks. You said that's what I came out, and I go, hello, folks. Yeah. So, but yeah, we can switch to. You don't want to do it because it's your thing.

No. Folks, it's your thing. No. You don't think better for the show. You only think better for you. He just ordered some merch. He's waiting for it. Did you order a Hello Folks merch?

I just ordered a thousand Hello Folks shirts. Let's Go Folks is, I think it helps us say it to each other, and we know out the gate. And like, you know, the pastor that said hello folks at a sermon like if he has to say let's go folks that's that's that that's harder that's what makes it funnier and that's more specific yeah that pastor could say hello folks like you would be like okay like i just how he i don't think i would even i i always feel like i can't tell like and i don't want to just assume that they they're it. That's pretty arrogant to be a fan of the podcast. They're like, I don't know, the most famous phrase of earth.

Yeah. The president says it all the time. Everybody says, hello, folks. Let's go, folks. Stands out. And then when the pastor says it, it's probably a little bit tough for him to say. Well, it's tougher for him to say, let's go, folks. Like, that's a weird way to start a sermon. Yeah. And that's very specific. Yeah. And then the audience really gets it.

We're on to something. Might change my mind next week. Matt Oregon, I think John Chris almost has to laugh at his own jokes just to give his audience permission to laugh. Being a minister myself, I know how uptight his target audience can be. That's very true. I could see that. But I've done a show in a church and just make the jokes really funny.

It's another option. I don't know. We all do different things. Tyler Gannon. Aaron just thinks not being on money is a big deal because of the American perspective. Also list people known internationally. I don't understand that. I think he's just saying that you're only listing people only known in America. List people that are known internationally.

Yeah. Well, that's like... You know what I'm talking about, the most famous. What is the soccer? Ronaldo. Ronaldo. Did you see he moved Coca-Cola from his press? He does a press thing.

They have two bottles of Coca-Cola. He grabs it and shakes his head no, and then grabs a bottle water water and goes agua he's like because he like and i read a thing about him where like he doesn't want his kids his kids will want to drink coke and he's always like it's really bad for you like he doesn't like these i think he still lets them do it but he let he does he lets them know he doesn't approve it and uh coke supposedly lost $4 billion because he did that. $4 billion? That's what someone said. Like in stocks.

Like their stock price went down because of that. Whatever stocks are. Stocks are made up. I think it's got to be probably a pretty big scam going. But in that world, I don't understand stocks as well. Yeah, $4 billion in market value after Ronaldo shuns Coke. So most famous ever. We could change maybe because that's pretty powerful.

That is powerful. That's bananas, dude. He just moved it out of the way and grabbed a water bottle. And people, that's unreal that's like yeah i don't think if the queen got rid of a coke no one would care no that's all i'm trying to say yeah i think you just hit 300 million instagram followers i saw too it's most instagram is the only thing above them and i feel like they probably make you follow them yeah yeah they're gonna always probably just be like no you got to be above that. Yeah, I mean, he's –

so, I mean, you know, we've talked about it. It's probably him. Justin, Justin Galindo, the old tour manager, he said Obama too. Could be. Yeah. And I guess I said Trump last week. If famous is well-liked, then maybe Ronaldo.

If it's just well-known, I still argue Trump. Well-known might be him. I'm i still i mean trump i don't well known might be him i'm actually kind of flipping that you don't do something like that that's crazy that's that's unbelievable he just moved the bottles and the stock went down that's insane yeah your shack and y'all mean they're identifiable but if you wrote their name down just read their names i don't think a lot of people are gonna know who should kill o'neill they're very recognizable i think people know who they are i think they know who they are but i mean i think he's soccer is the biggest sport

in the world yeah i would think he am i think him and he's up there yeah and it's probably him Mariah, right? Elder. I usually watch this podcast in bed, so I keep the volume low and turn on the closed captioning. But this episode said that closed captioning wasn't available. My guess is that YouTube threw in the towel after Nate's cut Larry struggle. That is, I mean, I feel bad for if, you know. You feel bad for the software that has to close caption? I like to picture it to a guy.

It's always funner to picture closed caption is just someone. Some guy sitting there. Some guy sits with his headphones on and he goes, let's do this thing. Oh, God. That's who you feel bad for? Yeah. Like he's just sitting there like, oh, God. What was that?

I don't even know how to type that. That's what I like to picture, closed captioning. There's a bunch of men and women all over the world. Stenographers. Stenographers. There you go. Yeah. Also, we're going to do we have the the Nate Land Live

podcast July 5th coming up very soon first show's doing good I think probably close to sold out second show

and you can come to both shows if you want they will be different we might have the same topic like we did last time we did Tennessee we did Tennessee on both shows

and then we but each show was different but they'd have to buy a ticket for each show yeah they'd have to buy a ticket for each show yeah you know

I just wanted to clarify because last week we said stick around if you want for the second show I didn't want people to think they could just stay in their seats yeah make sure that they

you know rules we got rules your audience would follow the rules though I think your audience would make sure that they you know rules we got rules your audience would follow the rules I think your audience would would you they would know you know they show up in a clear bag they already had

they already you know metal detectors like they don't have to plug it in when people come in through your audience yeah they have their own yonder bags yeah yeah nope did it at home they go yeah are the metal detectors just going off like crazy it's like everybody uh as i hit right this line is for people with their all their bones in their body your own your bones that you started with the bones god gave you

do you have just those bones and everybody and then then like one guy goes, I have all my original bones. He gets to come through that line. And then the other one, they go, they just, they just look and they go, you know what? Everybody just go on through.

I trust. It feels trusting. I think the people come to my show also don't buy tickets online because they don't know how, or they don't want to pay the $2 service fee or whatever it is. Yeah. I'll buy at the door. Yeah. Or they don't want to pay the $2 service fee or whatever it is. Yeah. I'll buy at the door. Yeah, buy at the door.

Buy at the door. Right before we get started with this, I am trying to start my something again. My intermittent fasting to get – I want to lose weight before this tour. I think I'm starting with 16 to 8. Okay. 16 hours fasting, eight hours feeding window which is a lot but if i can consistently say to that like basically i would eat after this podcast and then uh and that would be your first first eating of the day yeah yeah and then oh then

you're golden and then i eat till like at my last until nine o'clock after that yeah nine o'clock which i don't go to bed till one two in the morning anyway so that's that's about uh but i want to almost time it out to be kind of like that which is that's a pretty big window actually uh so i'll i want to see how that goes and then i'll adjust you were 24 yeah four hour feeding four hours still are you still doing that uh looser and looser like uh but basically i'm basically just eating one meal, one meal a day, and then just kind of snacking after that. And then, was your energy good? Like, you felt-

It changed pretty quickly. You have better energy. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah, my knees don't hurt. I'm not falling asleep. I mean, yeah, I feel way better. Pretty well, yeah.

Yeah, and a lot of people don't say the intermittent fasting. I mean, look, we're all trying. If you're like us, an average American, we're just trying to get through. We try a bunch of different stuff. But I always thought intermittent fasting, it's at least, for me, I need some kind of schedule. It's at least got to be like my schedule's just too sporadic. And it's like days where I have a bunch of stuff where we have this podcast

or I have other stuff. And then days I'm on the road and you're doing two shows. I'm not done until midnight. It's just too wild of a time so it's like the only thing i can control is my feeding window yeah you know yeah and then if you just tell yourself like you can't like i'm yeah then then you don't have a diet cherry coat yeah you can have those as much as you want you can have diet drinks i know i know we We're the opposite of Ronaldo. We get rid of the water and put in diet cherry Coke. They still lose $4 billion.

They lose more. They go, oh, God. So they're into it. That would have been very funny. You just go, Ronaldo, he does that. And you sit next to him. Do you mind if I have those Cokes? Yeah, get it.

And then you just sit there and drink one right in front of him. Go ahead. No, I'm sure they want to them and you, well, do you mind if I have those coats? Yeah, give it. And then you just, and you sit there and drink one right in front of them. Go ahead. No, I'm sure they want to hear from you. So we have some people that, I know when we asked how people are doing with the checking in. Mm-hmm. Heather is Bocito,

Sriracha veggie straws. So you're trying to get rid of those? Some of these, and we read a few of these last time. We read, yeah. Oh, who have we read? I think we read her, and I think we read the guy who said- Derek? Yep, Derek Visser.

Oh. Yeah. Saying I don't want to go to work. Laura Tokazogulu. Definitely did not read hers. Tokazogulu. She'd turn around. Yeah, she'd turn around.

That's pretty good. Did he say Laura? That's right. Yeah. Laura Tak-ga-zo-gloo. Meat. She's getting a Macron-dipping, Connor-rah-hill-ian alcohol you get rid of that you know someone asked me about not drinking alcohol uh and uh because i haven't drank in a couple years three

years uh and so if someone asks because a guy messaged me and talked like i know that's always a tough thing i know a lot of people want to quit drinking if you uh there's a lot of great stuff to read about um you know i know a lot of comics went to aa and uh stuff like that uh and that works for a lot of people too there's also some great books alan carr this guy uh he talked about quitting drinking quitting smoking all this kind of stuff just like kind of breaks it down. And there's another book too. I can't remember the other one I read, but it's essentially that exact thing. The same thing like the Alan Carr, not drinking.

And it's, what he did was he just talked, just breaks down alcohol too. Alcohol is basically poison. It's straight up poison. It's kind of crazy. And it, you, and you're just like like you're just trained to alcohols around like you know every commercials like i go every tv show i go to a bar i go two beers you know like that's just you're just you're since you're a child you're just it's ingrained in you to just be like yeah that's that's what you do. That's how you have fun. And the idea that the guy

has is he would say like, you know, go watch kids, go to a five-year-old birthday party or an eight-year-old birthday party, and they're dancing. They don't need alcohol to dance. They just dance and have fun. It's the idea of that to be like, you think you need these stuff to be looser, but your old body will have this stuff now i'm not saying if someone likes drinking i like i get that too i get the escape of it and like it's nice to it relaxes you but people there's an argument that it doesn't even relax you it makes it worse uh like if you have anxiety if you have all these kind of things it makes it heightens all that stuff so but the guy i'm just telling you that because that guy mentioned something about not drinking,

and he said something about me talking about it. If people haven't, I just stopped. I knew it was wasting my time. I knew I was, you know, that's why if you don't want to drink, if you can just feel that it's just, if you're if you're someone that drinks a lot and, you know, and I was in a, I'm in a business where alcohol is everywhere and alcohol is all it is, is around us. And so if you're drinking a lot, then, you know, that's when you can tell, like a lot of people don't think they're drinking a lot, but if you realize that you're like, oh man, I'm having

a, you know, having it every day. And I feel like I need this every day. I need my glass of wine every night, or I need my, you know, whatever it is that you need. You know, but if you can drink and not drink, then do whatever you want. You know, it's a mix of both of those. But if you quietly feel like, let me tell you, I promise you the most amazing feeling you will have if you drink is when you don't drink the next day and you don't feel it. That feeling does not go away, and that's the most exciting feeling. It's exciting. You wake up and you're like, I can't believe I feel like this.

And you're like, this is unbelievable. And then worst case scenario, you're going to be tired. But it's just when you can attack your day and you don't feel like you're just kind of bogged down at all from alcohol, nothing better than that. And so if you're drinking and you need to stop, you know, read those books. You're not alone. All right. This week we are, oh, one's Chris Anderson. 12 pounds by the time he attends Zany's Live podcast.

That was the first Zany's Live, but you can still do it. Well, maybe now, Chris, we'd like you to get it back before the next one. And then take it off again. And take it off again, yeah. But I just asked Laura, it's hot in here, turn the air conditioning down. We say cut as a South, but do you say just cut it down or cut it up? Or do you turn it down or turn it up up up for me can you turn the air conditioner up yeah to make it colder yeah and i said turn it down yeah why do you say up because you're increasing the strength so you're the air

conditioner you're you're turn you're turning the power you're actually saying turn the air conditioner up yeah yeah and i'm saying You're actually saying, turn the air conditioner up. Yeah, yeah. And I'm saying temperature. Right. But I say, turn the air conditioner down. What do you say? I say up, but I've heard both. Yeah, yeah.

I would know either way what they meant based on how it feels in the room. Yeah, yeah. Yeah. Yeah, yeah. That's what you're going off of. Yeah, yeah. A lot of people. You say cut, though.

I did a poll. I say cut. I did a poll and they said you're stupid Is that the whole It's the whole thing Can you believe that 100% Quick poll That's one person it was me And I filled it out right now

It's 100% you're stupid I say cut You don't say cut Cut it off Cut it down will sometimes cut it down yeah we didn't in my house growing up that's something i picked up from other people yeah well y'all used a lot bigger words than that you know did you pick it up from like your garbage man and stuff like that when you heard him come up and y'all would go and your parents would y'all make y'all go out and talk to a regular person? Was that when you would hear the...

Go fraternize with the peasants. When they come out and go, hey, kids, mailman's outside. Go, let's go outside. And I want you to introduce yourself to him, offer him food. He probably doesn't know how to get food. And use his words. And y'all walk out. Hey, how you doing?

You going to cut off your motor there? And you're like, I don't know, whatever this guy talks about. You know? That germane slipped out. Oh, yeah. That's hilarious. So this week. This week, we're going to look at some decades.

Yeah. And we're going to start with look at some decades yeah and we're gonna start with the 70s 1970s this decade that you both are from yeah exactly he started it i ended it and uh closed it out uh and he uh yeah 1970s yeah we might do a few of these right like the i feel like these are kind of fun. This one might be, if we go up, this might be the toughest one because when we get in the 80s and 90s, we're going to all have memories of stuff that we can reflect on. I'm probably the only one here that has memories of the 70s.

Yeah, why would it be tough? Why would this one be tough? No, the other ones. We have memories of it. Oh, well, then I misspoke. I meant this one will be tough. That will be easier because we'll all have memories still. Yeah.

Well, we did a pretty good job making fun of Andrew Jackson. I didn't meet him. So I'd imagine we'd be all right. Yeah. I don't know. This one's just awful. And it's like, well, I just don't remember any of this. So, I mean, we talked about calendars. I mean,'t remember any of this so i mean we we talked about

calendars i mean i don't know if there's nothing we've talked about that i'm like oh yeah i have memory never been to rhode island never been to rhode island we did quite a bit on that well can i ask a maybe a larger question before we dive in yeah so when we think about the 70s and the 80s and the 90s now these are decades that have distinct they have personalities to them like we have in our mind we can visualize what they look like yeah are you aware of those things in the moment like when you're in the 90s are you like oh is this a this is the distinct he was and white. His family was black and white. And so when they would go eat dinner, him and his family, they would all be in black and white.

And he remembers, obviously, you're going to remember when you see your mom in color for the first time. Yeah. That's a pretty powerful thing. Everybody remembers where they were that day. What was that, the 70s? Yeah. Mid-70s?

Yeah. First time you saw them in color? Yeah. I mean, I said on this podcast, my first memory that I can put a date on is going with my mom when she voted in the 1976 election. Yeah. And there's three memories I could actually remember.

So I was born November 71, so I would have been eight when the 70s were ending. So I remember that. I vaguely remember when Elvis died. Just vague. When did he die? Like 78, I think. Oh, I thought he didn't die until like the 80s.

No, 77, 78. I thought I remember when he died. 77. Oh, I remember that. Yeah. I have a vague memory of that. I have vague memories of the Iran hostage situation. Yeah.

These are traumatizing memories as a kid. I did not, dude. So that's what you remember. i remember i ran hostage yeah they wake your mom wake you up mom and dad come in i ran there's a hostage situation i ran and you go i know i know you've already listened to it on the radio you're preparing for your news career what do you think of well to ask your question i don't i don't think so yeah uh now have you ever seen there's someone posted some videos of uh i saw of like 1930s in color and it was on uh i don't know instagram or youtube or something i forget where i looked at it but it was pretty crazy and you're like seeing it where you're like oh they just they just you know when you really

think about it because it is it is hard like you see 1930s and you're like you're like i mean what was it like then but you when you see these pictures and colors and it's just like home videos yeah so it's it's it's very like you know personal and it's not like a an actual video of something crazy it's just like them at the beach and it's and you see them in color it's not like a an actual video of something crazy it's just like them at the beach and it's and you see them in color it's like yeah they're just the girls are in a bathing suit at the beach the same way we go the bathing suit at the beach yeah and like it's just you're the way we see it like it's pretty interesting to see that video to go like yeah dude they just it was just different and they dress different it makes you realize we're all the same the world was a little grainier but other than that it does humanize them in a way

yeah yeah like it's just you're you're you're all just like oh it's all just they just went to the beach like we did and they just used what they had yeah and you know someone just recently i think it was a documentary colorized all the the footage from World War I, and it showed like... It was Peter Jackson did that. Yeah, that movie that came out. I think it was in theaters. And it did. To your point, it just makes you realize these are just young guys like us

at one time in their life. Not that different than now. It does make it seem more relevant. Right. Yeah, for sure. Yeah. When I think of the 70s, I think of, not that I remember it, but Watergate. That's just something you hear about, 70s.

Yeah. You know? Yeah, sure. I think hippie. Lava lamps. Yeah, I think of that. Bell bottoms. Some Woodstock.

To me, that thing's, you know. That was a 60s yours is oh i don't know i mean it all blends together yours is the iran hostage situation and watergate iran hostage because i make me remember and watergate just because i hear people talk about yeah five minutes into the first decades episode we're like ah that all blends together dude it's all the same yeah it doesn't matter we're gonna have a pretty hard time with this topic well uh the vietnam war ended in the 70s yeah i mean we're just good night well i don't know what else we huh just fun stuff i don't know what else we... Huh? Just fun stuff?

I don't know. You maybe open up with some lighthearted... It was a tough decade, dude. Yeah. There's a lot going on. I mean, no, you already started now. All right. You already pulled the Band-Aid off of just, you know...

Well, I was just kind of... This is how the 70s started. What did you think the war should have been happening? The Vietnam... What do you remember if you... Did you protest the Vietnam War? Were you afraid of being draft i'm trying to get out of the way the stuff i remember sammy's right out of the gate right

to mix some of this but it's still gonna happen oh yeah well uh have you guys heard about the kent state good night i mean yeah you whispered massacre everybody Everybody can hear that. You're just hoping that not everybody hears it. Whisper it to the biker. Yeah, like everybody. You're hoping that some people that are listening at home don't. They go, no, no. Who needed to hear it needed to hear it. I mean, if we don't think this audience is all just us together,

it's that moment of just whispering to everybody. Everybody remembers the masquerade. What i don't you know what if someone's watching this uh with no headphones on a subway right now you know the closed captioning wouldn't get that that person listed there with the closed captioning so that's oh man what happened with kent state was it a vietnam protest the vietnam protest students Students at Kent State University were protesting the war, and things got out of hand, and the National Guard shot and killed four students. Okay, and this was the beginning of the 70s?

This was in 1970. Out of the gates. Yeah. Wow. Yeah. It's going to be a tough decade. Just setting the tone for what the 70s started like. Yeah.

People were upset about the war. Students getting killed. Yeah. Stuff like that. And then the 1972 Olympics in Munich. Fun one. What happened there? I mean, basically everything's got a movie made about it.

Everything that you're, like, everything's won an Oscar. I mean, that's pretty crazy. Yeah. There was a movie about Munich. That's when the Israeli Olympic athletes got killed. Oh, I've never heard of that. Yeah. It's a good movie.

Palestinians kidnapped them. They didn't enjoy it, but the movie's great. Your family will enjoy going out to the movie and watching about this family that gets torn apart. Tough one for them to relive. Yeah. It was crazy they delayed the olympics by 24 hours before they resumed doesn't that seem kind of quick yeah nine people kidnapped and murdered they just took a day off and then they're back at it

yep yeah wow they just you know the uh steeplechase they just didn't do that that year the trials summer trials are going on right now yeah uh yeah we're watching it's crazy like usain bolt's not in it and uh there's no one like him like it's he was so fast and it's it's it's weird to see them all kind of be together now and there's no one like he's just so are they even touching his times i don't think so no i mean i'm sure someone's going to come along obviously because they you know people always do it's always funny they always have you watch i watched sprinting last night just we got the one white guy did you finish last i mean the only reason he didn't is because someone

pulled up with a hammy and that guy still almost beat him but that's the only reason he didn't is because someone pulled up with a hammy, and that guy still almost beat him. But that's the only reason he wasn't last. He did better than – he was – it looked respectable. Yeah. He was last. He held his own? He was last, but he was respectable. What country was he from? Oh, this is all the U.S. trials.

Yeah, yeah, U.S. trials. Okay, yeah, yeah. Yeah. You see him, and you're like, this guy doesn't even have a chance. It's weird to me that in basketball, no matter them and you're like, this guy doesn't even have a chance. It's weird to me that in basketball, no matter what level you're on, there will be white guys on the team, but they're going to usually be on the bench.

I get it in high school. Sometimes you may not have enough players. You got to. But if you're good enough to get a college scholarship, it's weird to me that they're good enough to make the team, but be on the bench. And then if they make it to the NBA, I know there are exceptions, but usually it's mostly white be on the bench and then if they make it the nba i know there are exceptions

but usually it's mostly white guys on the bench it's just odd to me they can keep getting that next level but they just can't quite get over the threshold well some i mean some do some do yeah i just noticed it's a disproportionate amount uh herder so i'd like great grain my site for the hawks what'd you say it's herder or something like that whatever his name is i don't know he's a redhead for the atlanta hawks and he looks like he's about 18 years old yeah and he had an unbelievable game uh uh it's funny i always like i would want to be on the team just to be one of those guys with the warm-up jacket on that just reacts to stuff on the bench that's every march madness i watch there's just guys you're like that guy's

never played all he does is they hold their teammates back yeah this guy holds it back yeah yeah nobody's trying but you're dressed like one right now uh i mean that's essentially exactly what they would wear you know you'd have your and you're the guy with the hat on. They go, well, he's definitely not getting in. Right. You've already been told. You're there. And they already said, you know, they're like, you don't even have to suit up.

We don't have a spot for you. Like sometimes you do get a spot. But then today he's like, no, you don't get a spot. You got your wedding ring on. Yeah, yeah, I found it. Yeah, that's cool. I left it at like three different places. Oh, wow. And found it. Yeah, that's cool. I left it at like three different places. Oh, wow.

And found it. But that reminded me of seventh grade baseball. I played for the JV team, so they were like eighth and ninth graders. So I just never, I would never see the field. And the coach was yelling at the, he was yelling at the starters at one point. He goes, do you guys want to play baseball? Or you want to go sit, you want to go sit you want to go eat sunflower seeds with weber you were the example example of like do you want to be that or that you know

yeah i've forgotten about that yeah uh so do you guys play football football baseball basketball you started football football yeah yeah at the end like junior and senior year or senior year yeah what position center i think we know quarterback somewhere on the line yeah answer is kind of ridiculous you know i think he asked safety safety yeah yeah i thought you'd be a defensive back in the middle probably somewhere in the thick of it yeah i don't want to say what spot did you play but could you talk to the defense pretty easily because they were pretty close to your face oh yeah yeah hand touched the ball as much as the quarterback yeah yeah that sounds about right yeah so he's quarterback here come on

what are we doing here what are we what are we doing here? What are we having here? Another thing that happened in the 70s Plane crashes were just a thing Like there'd be one or two Big ones every year Like when's the last time we've had In the US at least a commercial aircraft It's been years

Like you're rooting for one I don't know of one My whole life I can't know of one my whole life. I can't think of a major one. In the U.S.? Yeah. The one that went down in the Hudson River, maybe? That might be the last one.

They all survived, didn't they? Still, it's a plane crash. Tom makes one at Oscars about it. There was one a few weeks after 9-11 in New York. At 9-11? I mean, my God. You're like, I don't even know. Let's back up a few more weeks.

Yeah, yeah. There's some big ones. Yeah. 9-11. Y'all don't count that. You're talking about falling out of the air. Well, and so in 1970, Wichita State football team. Yeah.

Got killed in a plane crash. A month later, Marshall's football team. Yeah. Wow. Plane crash. And Marshall got a movie. Yeah, why didn't Wichita get anything? I don't know.

I guess it wasn't as good a story. Yeah. They had two planes, so half the team made it and half the team didn't. And Marshall, the whole team, didn't make it. Oh, okay. Mm-hmm. That's pretty crazy, though, in college football. In back-to-back months, a team just-

And if you're a college football team, you're like, the percentages are high. Yeah. The percentages here are more than higher than the COVID right now. Like you would – you have – right now you have less chance to die from COVID than you do from a plane crash during that month. Yeah. You're going, they're all going down. Yeah.

It's like George Costanza. He asked Keith Hernandez that. Yeah. Don't you ever worry about this plane crash going down? The first time he meets him, walk around. The odds are just with you. The whole team would just get wiped out. It's like his opening conversation with him.

Yeah, I think there's been a bunch of Malaysia, that one they're just missing. I've there's been a bunch of like malaysia uh-huh that one they're just missing i guess there's been a bunch uh but crazy the malaysian one i don't know if they've they haven't found anything right like that's unbelievable parts yeah like yeah they found parts so there's yeah it's like the movie manifest uh but they uh i watched the pilot of that show by the way yeah yeah you like it after now oh the other thing that show, by the way. Yeah. Yeah, you like it? No. Oh, the other thing, that guy loses his job. The brother, to start the episode, they've been gone for five years. They magically reappear, and his workplace still goes,

well, we've went in a different direction. You don't go, no, we hired him back. The PR of that alone, as go as a company just to go you fired one of the our alien magic people that just disappeared for five years and come back and you go uh we've already filled your spot so and he and he's like he's like i'm looking in the wanted ads for a newspaper i mean and for a job it's ridiculous well i i love that nate was like he said i was out when the guy was like ah sorry i couldn't come i was busy at work and that was like maybe 90 seconds into the episode that that happened you were out pretty

quick well that's insane if if it's such a crazy thing you uh these people appeared yeah they were gone for five years and the guy comes and says they're back alive that worked and i am just boo what time do they land and you're what time they land they just got i don't know i'll see her when i see her she's back you know i think that show got canceled the day you talked about it. So, Ronaldo is not the only one who has some power. It's been canceled. Oh, I thought it just got canceled last week. No, I don't think so.

But the plane crash is crazy. My brother. So, remember the one that stopped all the big Boeing planes that had a seven 37 max. Yeah. Like, you know, remember the plane crash, right?

They did that. Have we talked about that? My brother, did we talk about that on this? No, I think you just told me, uh, you ready for this?

So, uh, you know, the one, it was in Africa or something like that. Right. And the plane that just crashed and they shut down all those 737 Boeing Maxes. My brother was a plane behind that plane.

Wow. At that airport. Saw that plane on the runway. Saw that plane on the runway. Some of those people, they flew. He was doing a mission trip and they go to Uganda. And so they, Derek, they went to Toronto first. And so Derek was on a plane with Toronto,

and all these people, they went to, I forget where it was, wherever they went. And then some people on Derek's plane then went to go get on that flight. Do you all know that? Or no? And some, it wasn't in Uganda. No. It was the, that's where they were going.

It was wherever they were going before that. Okay. And so, but Derek and them, they didn't know the plane crashed until they landed. But they, it flew, they saw it take off. And people that were on that plane that went down were on my brother's flight that went over there and they just happened to go that way and derek went it was going to uganda did he have a picture of it i don't know he's a picture of on the in the uh what like waiting in the airport so it's just a broad it's just a picture but it's just a picture and it is crazy

to think like you probably went through that picture you'd be like some of those people were on that flight yeah that is crazy yeah really crazy yeah that was one that was yeah we uh uh we did yeah we did not tell my mom right away yeah like not that she knew where they were going but i don't i forget yeah like it was something that we didn't oh we didn't mention that my mom didn't realize that where they were going, but I don't, I forget. Yeah. Like it was something that we didn't, we didn't mention that my mom didn't realize that they were

the plane behind them. Like we didn't really like say that. Like she knew that they were flying over there, but she didn't realize that it was, which we didn't all realize

that either at first. That he was that close to it. That close to it. Yeah. Plane that goes up. Yeah. It's crazy. Did you find something on Manifest? Yeah, it got canceled a week ago. That close to it. Yeah. Plainly goes up. Yeah. It's crazy. Did you find something on Manifest?

Yeah, it got canceled a week ago. Oh, really? Yeah. Huh. And now they're talking about Netflix trying to save it. Save it from what? Ego, you know? I got a few ideas.

Maybe act like the characters care that they magically appear. I don't like it if a show it has some crazy thing like that and then everybody still is like kind of like whatever about it that being said we apparently don't care about aliens here so uh i like the show monk a lot yeah i've seen every episode of monk and the premise of monk is that he's this genius detective, right? But he's super weird. And you're like six seasons in, Monk has a theory about a case. And they're all like, oh, Monk. Oh, crazy Monk.

And I'm like, no, he's solved 100 murders in like the last six years. And nobody still trusts him. Here we go. Oh, Monk up to his feet. And then. Yeah, he's been right 100% of, ba, ba, ba, ba. And then. Yeah, he's been right 100% of the time. I mean, he's got books probably. Yeah. He's on the news every night being interviewed.

They can't believe that he solved everything. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. The 70s were also the heyday of cults. Okay. Big cults going on. I could have been in a cult.

Yeah. I think if a cult would have went after me, they could have had me. Sunshine Clears? Yeah. Not Nia from Seinfeld. Yeah. I think not now, but, I mean, if they would have came out the gate. You think you're good now?

You're not? I think I'm fine now. Okay. I'm too old. Yeah. And, yeah. But they could have came out. If they were recruited, if they have been a graduation of the steps.

I could have probably been talking to him. Well, Charles Manson, uh, you know, he was, that was in his heyday and stuff. And then the most famous one,

maybe. Heyday's a funny term, you know, this is a good time. That's a, you know, that's like, yeah. So, Walter Payton's heyday.

When he was at his best. Charles Manson at his best. This is the time we're talking about. Yeah. O.J. Simpson also. It was during his heyday. Charles Manson, O.J. Wasn't O.J.?

This was his heyday? Yeah, in the 70s. I thought he was more of a 60s guy. No. In the NFL, it was the 70s I thought he was more of a 60s guy but no in the NFL was the 70s okay yeah

okay yeah Jonestown do you know what Jonestown is yeah what it I do

but I know it's bad the term don't drink the Kool-Aid comes from that yeah yeah it's just a crazy story

that this guy convinced all these people to follow this cult. And then they go down to Guyana. I guess that's how you say that, right? South America. And then a congressman comes down there to investigate with people. And they kill him. And the NBC News crew that's with him.

They did? Yeah. Wow. I didn't know that. Some of the people wanted to escape some of the people are like you got to get us out of here so they took a few people and then jim jones followers found them at the airport and and killed them all just shot them like yeah and at the airport and is that what did them they get in trouble they got a little bit trouble

that's what he told them they're coming to get us, so everybody drink this punch. And 900 people committed suicide. And he didn't, did he drink it too? He shot and killed himself. Oh. And did he tell them that they're going to die from this punch? Yeah, I think they did. Yeah, they knew what was going on.

I've actually, and I really regret listening to it, but there are audio tapes of this happening. Oh, really? Of his last speech, and then you hear people, and I listened to it years there are audio tapes of this happening oh really of his last speech and then you hear people and i listened to it years ago out of curiosity and i wish i hadn't yeah it's gross you hear people just dying like you hear people yeah yelling and then they start to realize what's happening and they don't like it yeah to say the least It's pretty like harrowing. Yeah. You know? I would have, I feel like you just wait a second and be like, you know, has everybody drank this?

Like. Yeah. 900. You got to fake take a sip. Yeah. Throw it over your shoulder. What is that? Oh, oh, oh, oh.

I mean, everybody else is going to be dead. So you just, then you get up and walk out. You know? There had to be a couple of those. But there were people, I think there were people who were refusing and then they come up with guns and make them drink it. Oh, really? Yeah. It was like way more violent and tragic than even it was in my mind.

Yeah. Mine, it's this peaceful, like, oh, let's just all ship it. But nah, it was a nightmare. I think dying's like that. It's a little more, you know. I know it's sweet in your head, and you go, oh, so they went night-night? And you go, yeah, they just went a little, kind of closed their eyes. All right, all right.

These kids listen to this. Good night. Sorry. Hey, everybody, sorry. Sorry about the massacre. Yeah. Music in the 70s changed. All right.

There we go. Music. What's the top thing sing? Concord. You want to talk about that? Yeah. What is that? That's the flight, the supersonic flight.

Yeah. So have you heard of the Concord? No. It's the first supersonic flight. It's have you heard of the concord no it's the first supersonic flight it's faster than the speed of sound and it could fly you from the from europe to us in half the time wow and they came with them in the 70s started in 76 and cost 600 to fly one way between london and washington, it worked? People could do it? They did it for years.

Yeah. Why did they stop doing it? It didn't end until 2003. I think flights got a lot more convenient and better. And then I think the cost of it was just... Was the... Oh, flights now are faster than this. No, they're not faster than this. But I think overall, aviation's gotten a lot better. No, they're not faster than this, but I think overall aviation's gotten a lot better,

so it's more similar to what this was. I think there's some talk about it. Let's say, look up the Concorde. What's it look like? It's kind of slick looking, small. I didn't know you could commercially do this. Yeah, rich people could do it. That's crazy.

They had to only fly from like east coast to like london over they had to fly only over water because when you break the sound barrier it causes a sonic boom yeah so you can't be flying over populated areas i mean what are the seats like in that they said they were pretty tight actually yeah yeah i think they squeeze people in they would get over 100 people on that plane. And then they, and you have to just say, and how long would the flight be? Half the distance of a normal flight. So what's a flight from New York to London?

Is that six hours, seven hours? Yeah. So it'd be half that. Three hours? And you hear, I mean, how fast, do you realize how fast you're going in there? It's going 1,300 miles per hour. I know. About seven hours, that flight is. Normally.

New York to London. Yeah. And so it's half of that. I mean, Ken, do you realize? Are you just like the whole time, just kind of head back? I don't know about that. They did say it was loud. It was louder than what planes

are today yeah um so it's not faster than the speed of sound how's that that is you know i mean i feel like you just come right off of it and just go but it wouldn't surprise you about it how loud it was i I thought we were outrunning sound. And, I mean, you should have heard this guy snore behind me. I mean, my goodness. Noisiest plane I've ever been on in my life.

I was looking forward to a little peace and quiet to be honest with you. I was leaving some sound behind and turns out it was all over me. It's funny to think about. You can't hear each other until you land.

And all of a sudden, the conversation is huge. Because they catch up. Yeah. I just want to blah, blah, blah. And you go, oh. Cram it in. Yeah. Conversation is still back over the ocean.

Yeah. Just got here. All the flight attendant announcements and everything all just hits you once at the end. Yeah, and they're right at the end. Man. There's no drink service because we were going so fast. You're like, oh, that's why they didn't come. Why didn't they say that before we started going?

I used to think the speed of sound and the speed of light were basically the same thing, but there's a big difference. Oh, I don't know. I've never thought of that. Yeah, they're the speed of the light were basically the same thing, but there's a big difference. Oh, I don't know. I've never thought of that. Yeah, they're the speed of two different things. I just thought they were both instantaneous, but light's a lot faster. Yeah.

How quick this podcast go down is pretty quick. What's that? The speed of light. Yeah, the speed of sound uh that statement wasn't fast enough people wanted it to end quicker than it started um all right so music yeah um disco was the big thing happened late 70s saturday night fever bgs yep bgs i just watched the Bee Gees documentary I didn't realize

how big they were I mean they were about as big as it gets yep yeah right yeah oh yeah

at that time late 70s Bee Gees and Abba and Bread my mom liked Bread my mom loves Bread

yeah Bread's a great band yeah that's how I've been food Nate's like oh there's a band also? Yeah. Yeah.

Funk music took off in the 70s. Heavy metal kind of became a thing because of disco. Like Led Zeppelin. Yeah. Jimi Hendrix, stuff like that. Jimi Hendrix and Jim Morrison and Janis Joplin all died at 27. There's a 27 club. Have you guys heard this?

Yeah. Yeah, and so is Kurt Cobain. Kurt Cobain. Amy Winehouse. There's like a ton of people. One of the, I think, Rolling Stones. Wasn't Jim Croce 27 too? He may have been.

Yeah. One of the Rolling Stones was? Uh-huh. I didn't know one of them died. One of the early on. Yeah. The other ones really showed them. Yeah, they sure did.

They stuck around. I mean, you can imagine that guy's going, he's up there in heaven just waiting on them. He's like, I mean, how old could they be? Jacker's still having kids. Yeah. He's sitting there. Yeah. He's up there waiting on them to get there. Ha! I thought I'd at least see some of them, you know?

He was going to get the band back together up there. I mean. I promise you guys, that was a great band. Yeah. They'll be here. They'll be here. I just don't. That's unbelievable.

They're not. Elvis was in his fat years yeah he did uh that concert aloha from hawaii which i think we mentioned last week 1.5 billion viewers yeah watched it that's almost as much as mash yeah mash started in the 70s oh yeah this is a great time have you watched mash i've seen some of. It's not like one of my favorite shows. I mean, you go after it like it's your West Wing. Yeah. Was it your parents' West Wing?

My dad was West Wing. Oh. So MASH wasn't. Was MASH your grandparents' West Wing, do you think? Maybe, yeah, I guess so. Do you like MASH? I think it was more like gun smoke one of those kind of shows yeah bonanza all those westerns i read that the 70s kind of was the end of the westerns bonanza gun smoke and started the cop dramas that's when like chips chips the rockford The Rockford Files. When Andy Griffith went over to...

Mayberry? No, the lawyer when he was... Oh, Matlock? Matlock. Yeah, that was the 80s. Yeah. Oh. Yeah, yeah. That'll be next up.

Yeah, yeah. Don't get ahead. Yeah. Do you know the theme song to MASH, what it's called? Suicide is Painless. Yeah. It's kind of weird. Yeah yeah it's a very morbid song the 70s to be honest yeah it does 70s are brutal yeah like that's from the i mean everything is

yeah a lot of a lot of death and dying yeah tragedy and it's funny that you do think hippie you you know you think loving I guess that is the 60s. The 70s is what we had to pay for for the 60s. That's what someone would say. I read an AMA on Reddit. I ask me anything where somebody just gets on there and answers questions. This woman that I think was over 100 years old. She was born in the 20s.

This was a few years ago. She was born in, I think, the 20s. This was a few years ago. She was born in the 20s. And somebody was like, what did you think of the hippie movement in the 70s? And she just had such a unique perspective. She was already like an old, a middle-aged woman. She was over 100 then? No, no. She was like in her 50s.

I'm 100 now. Yeah. So for the 20s, she would have been 50 in the 70s if she's born in 1920 right so she was like i was a grown adult and these and she like hated these kids they're like they're selfish they're annoying yeah just to hear that perspective i feel like you only hear it from their perspective yeah where it's like it's all love dude like peace yeah peace and harmony and they're like, these kids stunk. It's what they should be.

You should, in your 20s, it's about that. You should be like, no, we love everything, blah, blah, whatever. And then you hit your 40s, you become an adult, and you go, no, no, no. I'm a kid. We have responsibilities. It shifts. And it should shift. And that's a problem now. I think people don't shift. We have responsibilities. Like, it shifts. And it should shift. And that's a problem now.

I think people don't shift. They just stay. I think people are getting older, and they're not having kids, and they're 30, and they're, you know. And so they still got the mindset of a 20-year-old, but they're 30. And, like, that's, you know, you're kind of like, oh. It's like you're talking. It's not someone that just, you know, that's like, no, you got to be a grown-up adult. You got to have responsibilities.

And people are having kids now in the mid-30s. I mean, you know, I was probably early 30s. But, like, they, but, like, now it's like people are, you know, and people don't have children. So then if you don't have children, like, you're, if you don't have a family, you don't have, like, and I'm not saying anything's wrong or bad about this but your your like desires can be way different than you know it's like you can like

sometimes people can be obsessed with twitter you know older than they should be yeah versus someone that's like i got four kids i don't even know twitter exists and that person they live different lives this person can't everything's the worst day ever how's everything going wrong how do these people doing all this stuff and then this person the family's like i don't even i'm barely surviving i have multiple jobs i've and i think yeah so you got to think about those people people forget about those people and they like talk for you know yeah the 30s that but it is pretty interesting i think that stuff's switching for sure back then i mean people have kids that you you know my parents were 23 when i was born

like they like people had kids that that's when they had kids and now that age has gone way up my dad had three kids but that was my age already that's what you that and that's that's what you did and that's completely changed now. The best-selling album of the 70s was Pink Floyd's The Dark Side of the Moon. It was on the Billboard Top 200 chart for 741 weeks. Wow. That's over 14 years. Wow.

That's so crazy. 14 years? Yeah. Wow. Not even that good of an album. Yeah. No, it's pretty good. Yeah. Do you have it? I'm about to start tr 14 years? Yeah. Wow. Not even that good of an album. Yeah. No, it's pretty good. Yeah.

Do you have it? I'm about to start trashing it. Yeah. Most overrated band of all time, dude. Wow. No, they're good. Just kidding. All right.

You don't like them? No, they're great. No, I'm kidding. I'm just joking. That's fine, dude. You don't like them. You don't like them, you don't like them. It is what it is. The Eagles' Greatest Hits was released in 1976

And in 2018 it became the best-selling album of all time The Greatest Hits If that doesn't tell bands something, then I don't know what does What does it tell them? That's when we want to hear your greatest hits Play your greatest hits That's the greatest, you know. It's like, yeah, go out there, play the hits, baby.

Did you know their name? Did you know they're Eagles? They're not the Eagles? I did not know that. You know that? Eagles. They're just Eagles. Yeah.

Well, Eagles have the first and third best-selling album of all time. That's pretty crazy. Could you not say the in front of the sentence, though? You could, but if you were just like, what's the name of the band eagles eagles yeah we're going to see but i always call them the eagles because it just seems to make sense well because the sentence you're using probably requires the but like the beatles the name of the band is the beatles they're not just beatles yes that's the difference because they were like you're gonna going to have to say the in front of it every time.

So we'll do the work for you. Where Eagles are going, no, you got to do the the. And you're like, why don't you do it? And they go, no, no, no, we don't do it. The Beatles are like, no, we're doing it for you. We already type it in, the Beatles.

Thanks for typing it for us. Aren't you friends with, the Beatles. And you're like, thanks. Thanks for typing it for us. Aren't you friends with one of the Beatles? I mean, one of the Eagles? Dude. Just the Beatles. I feel like that would have come up. Paul McCartney. Maybe we'll get him to do when we do London. I don't know where he's

from or something. Liverpool. And you go, what's a Liverpool, man? I thought it was just a soccer team but it's a place huh that's what i was saying about liverpool thank god is it what is liverpool i just know it's a soccer team yeah it's a town this city yeah yeah it's a weird name i like it liverpool you know that's a crazy oh it is weird yeah what do you think about it I'm from Liverpool if it wasn't for and that's where he's from

Paul McCartney yeah and if he and the yeah I mean that yeah people could get upset about

you know kids coming over from Liverpool put your wallets away like that sounds like a town that would be and then they got a great soccer team now

right or famous I don't know yeah a big one and then they got a great soccer team now right or famous i don't know a big one and then paul mccartney probably a bunch of other stuff yeah so now they're doing real good now who's who liverpool's like yeah turn it around on yeah uh he went back to his old house or something i saw a video like that once he did carpool karaoke yeah he went to his old town that was actually really cool yeah went to his old barber shop and everything yeah it was awesome uh yeah so no i did when i did uh i did joe wash's 70th birthday uh but i think i've talked about that on here they get maybe you have uh when i tom hanks was there and uh at ringo star i did a show for, uh, Ringo star. I was looking in the front row and I was doing my standup and. Are you being serious?

Yeah. So you does have a connection to the Beatles. Oh yeah. And the, yeah, I do. Uh, he was thought Ringo star was in the Beatles.

Yeah. Yeah. Could I get them on here? You're like, I could at least have a shot. I could try. I could try. I could try. But with Joe's,

Joe's 70th birthday and they, uh, and I performed and it was sitting right in the front. I mean, there were everywhere like Tom, like it was a lot of super famous people there. And then, uh,

it was Joe Walsh, Ringo Starr, uh, were sitting right up front. That's the only people that performed on the show. He did. I did stand up and then they played, and that was the show. And it was this small kind of thing, and they just had fun.

Did you bury him, dude? I brought the heat. They did not know. So Joe's a fan of comedy and likes comedy, but I don't think people really knew that I was supposed to be doing this show. And so I went up, and it's funny because I did the dead horse joke, and I was doing it, and you feel like you're in a place with kind of like people that are real animal activists,

and so I'm just talking about this horse being dead, and it was just kind of tight. They're like, what are you doing? And then when I said it was alive, the relief that was felt. And then after that, the set was good. And then. That's interesting. But it was like they didn't know.

They didn't know. I don't like they didn't know me. Like, you know, Joe just was like, I want you to perform it. Like he likes comedy. And then and then when you're up there performing, you see Tom Hanks. And you're like, you know, it's like, I want you to perform it. Like, he likes comedy. And then when you're up there performing, you can see Tom Hanks. And you're like, you know, it's like, I mean, he's just sitting. I know where he's sitting. And, like, you're just kind of like you can't stop kind of looking that back way.

And then I'm looking down. And then front row is Ringo Starr with the glasses and Joe Walsh and Brad Paisley and Paul Allen. And you're up there doing your liverpool bit about the name was liverpool real tough rough town huh and then they uh uh drew uh carrie was there uh richard lewis was there they were very nice to me afterwards they were like they were like man i couldn't believe you went up and did this it was great but i mean i was like why would i not do it like i if i was them i wouldn't do it but

um yeah there was a lot of uh crazy it was yeah it was it was awesome and then we just hung out and talked to tom hanks and his wife rita afterwards for a long time they were very very cool and nice and then talked to joe and uh yeah it's kind of crazy that's awesome yeah one of the crazier gigs i've ever Probably the craziest gig Yeah Yeah You guys want to guess The top grossing movie

Of the 70s Jaws Oh great guess It's a great guess Saturday Night Fever Both on the top 10 Jaws is number two Okay

Don't say one yet Halloween Saturday Night Fever was number 8. So number 1. Top grossing movie. Mash the film. Yeah.

E.T.? That was the 80s. They all blur together. Any more guests or you mean? Oh. They all blur together Titanic Do you need Any more guests Or you mean Oh Oh

Yeah Someone's thinking Is Is Halloween not on there No Yeah It was a dumb guess Is that really that dumb of a guess

I mean it's a pretty big movie Apparently so It's on the top ten We watched it At a drive-in theater Yeah 40 years later It's doing okay.

Yeah, that is true. That is true. But for the game that we're doing. The Ten Commandments with Charlton Heston. Is it obvious? It is obvious. You just hadn't thought of it yet. Charlie and the Chocolate Factory?

No, it's not going to be that. It's got to be obvious. What's like a 70s movie that's completely obvious? Blazing Saddles. Indiana Jones. Final answer. I don't know. Star Wars.

Star Wars. Oh. I don't think that's that obvious. That's like the biggest movie of all. You thought Halloween was over. Star Wars and Jaws. I forgot. We don't think of Star Wars as a 70s thing

sorry I don't I mean was it the first one was in the 70s and then the rest were in the 80s I think so yeah okay yeah it's like me

barely got in the 70s but then we really shined in the 80s and then we went down and now we're back a little yeah so it was

Star Wars, Jaws, Grease, The Exorcist. Yeah. How many did you see in a theater? I don't think I saw any of these in a theater.

So The Exorcist at age eight in a theater. It was right after this that like the early 80s is when I was old enough to start going to movies. Oh, you never went to a movie

in the 70s? I feel like my mom maybe took me to see The Jungle Book or something like that. Yeah. Live play of it. Yeah, there's no theater.

There's no screen. It's an act out kind of thing put a couple dimes in a bucket right before you go sit down and they go that's a lot sports

probably the most famous person of the 70s was Muhammad Ali he had multiple fights i think we showed this to the gigantic fights billion over billions of viewers the rumble in the jungle and the thrill in manila each had over a billion viewers yeah um do you remember him being a thing growing up i remember his last fight where he lost and like just the end of his career i don't remember his heyday yeah when was his last fight early 80s yeah i i don't remember i remember him i think he was already like sick or like what did he have uh parkinson the 96 olympics in atlanta when he was like i

remember that yeah yeah so everything i remember is kind of that you know let's say look at like michael j fox like you think uh which i mean let's say, look at like Michael J. Fox. Like you think, which I mean, it's like 80s. Like how many people don't remember him before Parkinson's? It's just kind of crazy. Yeah. Do you know him before Parkinson's? Yeah, I knew him from Back to the Future, but that was way after the fact.

Like I remember when they said he had it and it was like still doing great still made a show like doing awesome it's crazy the uh rumble in the jungle is where ropa dope uh was a thing where he basically acted he conserved his energy and then he came out yeah rumble in the jungle is the one that had the most views i mean that's so crazy that's where that's too when you get looking like the famous kind of the most famous thing is that kind of thing like even like a uh when a billion people are watching dude like that's just that's a that's a lot everybody knows that person yeah i mean that's a lot over a billion that's i mean no one watches that no one doesn't that many people do that stuff like where they watch you know yeah here here's muhammad ali muhammad ali doing the rope dope it's one of the best

just dodging punches man and then he does a little a little shimmy here at the end, mocking them. Yeah, it's amazing. It's pretty amazing, yeah. I mean, his hands are just down. On the ropes. Yeah, that's unreal. Yeah. Maybe one of the greatest sporting just kind of things, right?

Moves or crazy kind of thing. The rope-a-dope? Yeah, maybe that's the number one. If you're listening, it's when he's got his hands on the rope and he's in the corner and he just dodges all the punches. I mean, maybe. That's a professional boxer. Is that Joe Frazier?

That's George Foreman. It's George Foreman. It's not like it's just a dude. Yeah, the heavyweight champion. It's the second behind, like people would argue, the second greatest boxer of all time. And he just lets, he puts his hands down and then just says, and he gets him in a corner.

And he goes, just try to hit me. And he dodges every one. I mean, is there a better athletic kind of move at the – I can't think of one. I mean, it's like 15 punches. It's not like it's a one miss. It's so many that George Foreman had to just walk away. Well, I think he let George tire himself out,

and then he finally comes out starts pounding him yeah but yeah like for like foreman like just he starts shaking and then foreman like kind of gets tired and backs off i mean that's crazy yeah so much the foreman goes well this isn't working i've got him in a corner he's just in a corner a man is in a corner and his hands are down and i can't and i'm a one of the greatest athletes of all time and i can't hit this man in the face yeah yeah all right let's go back to kent state uh so the chicago white socks had some crazy promotions their owner was no he would do like they play in shorts yeah do different stuff yeah so they had disco demolition night and this is the

end of the 70s a lot of people that loved rock music hated disco so this local shock jock they worked together and he did this promotion the in between the double header bring your disco bring a disco uh album and we'll destroy it we'll blow it up in between the double header out on the field they were expecting 20 000 people 50 000 people showed up because this shock jock got everybody to come instead of just nicely handing over their album they started throwing them like his weapons. And then they blew it up on the field. Then people charged the field and just started going crazy. And they had to bring out the riot police because people were just getting so out of hand.

And they had to obviously counsel the second game. It's hard to go back to a game after that. Yeah. After fires and riots on the field. Yeah. I'd say it was the worst sports promotion of all time. Yeah. Well, it got people at the first game.

Still talk about it. Yeah. I mean, is it the worst? Yeah, they could be like, is it the worst? 50,000 people showed up. We thought 20. So that's basically if it had been double, I got more than double with one game.

You don't even need to do the second game. We didn't need the second game. Yeah, maybe it's the best. Maybe it's the best, and it's the most talked about. We're still talking about it today. Yeah, we're not talking about bobblehead night still, you know? Yeah. This is how you get people there.

It's interesting. The fact that you were allowed to do this stuff back then, it's so crazy to even think to go. They go, yeah, yeah, we'll just have them throw their records out on the field. We'll burn them. And we'll burn them on the field in between the doubleheader. And then they go, huh, alright. Yeah.

Yeah, it's great. The World Trade Center's open in the 70s. They were the tallest buildings in the world until less than a year later, the Sears Tower in Chicago passed it. A year later. Yeah. Yeah. So in

television, sitcoms dominated the 70s uh all in the family was the number one show on television for five straight seasons that's hard to believe like a show now could be the number one and the ratings they were like in the 30s meaning a third of the tvs um were watching yeah how many people is that well i don't know how many people were alive then but i mean how many people are watching their their show they don't ever do it by people i just don't know what the breakdown is uh like 40 million people watching them yeah i think so it's in the millions i really there are there are numbers that are nobody's getting today Right Oh by far Oh yeah I don't know Movies don't even

Probably get some of these Like For ratings Like the AFC And NFC championship games They usually get Like a 30 Something rating

And they were All in family Was doing that every week AFC The games now Get a 30 Now yeah Oh and they were

Yeah Those shows were doing it Because the cable wasn't really even a thing i mean there was cable but it wasn't like it is today yeah so you basically had three channels uh but there's all all these norman lear shows that just dominated um and then gary marshall at happy days was one of the top shows lavernene and Shirley. The Reese Company. You guys see any of these? Yeah, I've seen. I watched a lot of Happy Days.

Ron Howard. He had a sneaky career. Sneaky, great, great career. Andy Griffith, Happy Days, and director. Yeah. And a major director. One of the best. And his daughter is now a big, big time director.

Huge actress, yeah. actress yeah yeah director is it what really yeah what does she directed do you know stuff she's looking up she's directed something recently is it bryce howard is that her name bryce dallas yeah oh bryce dallas i remember we could have uh i don't think she would have done it but we were like I don't think she would have done it but when we were like for like you know

you get options like when you when you cast a show like alright here's the people you can go try to ask for but she was someone that like you just had to

offer her the role like that's the only thing she would have The Mandalorian A couple episodes The Mandalorian A couple episodes It's literally a couple

Sorry But it's pretty It's literally a couple. Sorry. But it's pretty. It's only been on two seasons. I guess that's not good enough. I'm not unimpressed. I'm just saying. I'm trying to. She's the one in the Jurassic Park movies?

Yes. Yeah. Yeah. And Ron Howard, did he direct Arrested Development or he just did The Voice? I don't know. Just the voice? Just the voice. Okay.

But he's got a great career. All right. Is there some more stuff? We're getting pretty loose right here. I mean, we're at a table having lunch. Saturday Night Live debuted in 1975. Its first host George Carlin

yeah he's the only one still who didn't appear in any sketches oh he just did the monologue and then peaced out yep that's the way to do it

didn't want to do it Richard Pryor won best comedy album in 75 76 and 77

that's a nice little run for the Grammys, that's pretty crazy. Domination. Yep. Looking for a dismount. Tracy Austin won the US Open tennis at age 16. Oh, wow. That's pretty crazy.

Yeah. All right. I guess we're done. Is there not, like, that was it? It's just more of that stuff. Bookend it with another tragedy, Brian. I'm not sure. Somebody got massacred.

We didn't really talk about Watergate, but the oil crisis. Yeah. Three Mile Island, I could end on that. What's that? Oh, that was the nuclear. It's like Chernobyl? Yeah. Yeah, it's the worst.

It's like ours, our Chernobyl. Nuclear accident in U.S. history. The reactor almost overblew. It almost had a meltdown at this nuclear reactor. The governor of Pennsylvania advised pregnant women and preschool-age children to leave the area within a five-mile radius, which led to a panic they hoped to avoid when 100,000 people fled the surrounding area. So it kind of backfired on them. Yeah, so just a nightmare. Yeah.

But no one died. That's good. So we did better. Later on, they did. Oh. Of cancer. I was they did. So we did better. Later on they did. Oh. Of cancer. About to say we did better. Yeah, that's like, yeah, well, they get to go.

That's the bad part. They're like, yeah, no, everybody survived. You're like, I mean, a large number of people died, like, because of the radiation, cancer, like a few years later. But, I mean, the day that happened. Yeah. People were at the store the next day day which was one of the major problems we found out for the amount of people that died years after that but yeah that day everybody

no one was even in danger and we didn't make everybody leave which again was a looking back now is a huge mistake we made because this is why so many people have not survived 70s yeah pretty gruesome uh maybe could have went and looked at it with a little funner outlook on the seven you know is there fun stuff i think that's just the reality of the times man i think there's a lot going on i mean i don't know what the tv shows and movies and stuff i think that's just the reality of the times man i think there's a lot going on i mean i don't know what the tv shows and movies and stuff i thought would be yeah finer the 80s probably a little more uplifting i think the 80s and 90s again like i said the beginning will well at least i'll be have some skin in the game yeah as far as stuff that now that we can talk i think you'll

be surprised there's some horrible stuff going on in the 80s and 90s. I can't wait to dive in. Yeah, I can't wait to get into it. All right, everybody. Y'all have shows? Yes. This weekend at the Chicago Zanies in Old Town, June 25th through the 27th. Come out.
