Starting point is 00:01:41 Cam Gordon. Hey Mike, how's it going? Sorry, I'm just watching live on Periscope. I thought it was going to be like an infinite loop since it's coming from wherever. Yeah, no one wants to hear that. I'm going to crack open right now. I have a IPA from Great Lakes.
Starting point is 00:01:59 I'm sorry to shut you down. That was a terrible idea. Okay, Burst. So I've got the Burst. I know you're a Haze Mama guy, so I brought you out a cold Haze Mama. That's great. Thank you.
Starting point is 00:02:07 Yes. So let me just crack. Here, you go first. Want to do it together? Are you guys cracking? Want to do it together? You go first, and I'll go. I got a coffee, so I'll go.
Starting point is 00:02:14 Okay, because I thought you might have some things to celebrate, but we'll get to that. Yeah, okay. Three, two, one. Almost in unison. Not bad. Not bad. So welcome, guys. I can kind of see my breath, but it doesn't feel cold.
Starting point is 00:02:30 Like we must be right on the peripheral. Are you guys cold? It feels like a nice fall evening. Yeah, it could be worse. So are you wearing your mask because you tested positive? No. Cam is like super, you know. Okay, because you would be clear.
Starting point is 00:02:44 I don't want to sound like Trump here. No, no. I'm just saying just for, you know, out of respect to my friend Cam, I'm going to wear the mask. Okay. Because, you know, I'd rather him be here and be comfortable, right? Thank you. Okay, okay.
Starting point is 00:02:58 That's great. I would never tell somebody to take off a mask. So good for you. Good for you. Can we talk, Stu, about the launch, the official launch of Faking a Murderer? Yes, we definitely can. Talk to me because I've been getting,
Starting point is 00:03:10 like the feedback I'm getting from FOTMs is extremely positive. Like I can't tell if they're just being nice. They might be. Or if they just really love what you did. So how'd the launch go? I would say that it went very well. All of the people who listened to this show last week
Starting point is 00:03:24 that sent out tweets and did as... I did it. Did Cam do it? Did as they were supposed to do. I liked some of the tweets. It definitely was great. I know Hollywood Sweets certainly retweeted a bunch of FOTMs in the past few days.
Starting point is 00:03:40 And you'll be happy to know and the people that did send out tweets that there's some new promotional material being put together featuring some of the tweets that were sent out. So some FOTMs. I know Cam Brio is on the new bit of marketing material that's going out. So maybe Toronto Mike's there too. I know Cam's not.
Starting point is 00:04:00 Well, that could be a new case study for the Twitter marketing blog, too. Wow. Absolutely. Launch and connect, we say. When you launch a new product or a new film, it's a great place to launch on Twitter. The good news is the movie is out in Canada. You can watch it right now if you want. Obviously, if you're listening to this, then don't watch it right now.
Starting point is 00:04:20 Wait. Or you could pause this if it's not live and come back to us. It's like Dark Side of the Moon. If you sync up Faking a Murderer with today's episode. Yeah, it might be a good thing. I was going to say last week's because that was the murder episode, right? Right. Yes. And that picture
Starting point is 00:04:35 we took after last week's episode, I think is our best one. Iconic. It's going down in history. If people want a free, there's a free link to get a 30-day free trial of Hollywood Suite. So those that want to jump aboard and watch Faking a Murder,
Starting point is 00:04:50 we've talked about all the other classic films that are available on that platform, including Jack of All Trades. And Donnie Darko. And Donnie Darko. Heavenly Bodies. Heavenly Bodies. Ferris Bueller's Day Off.
Starting point is 00:04:59 My Pet Monster. The Miller's Crossing. Edison Twin Season 1. It's all there. Oh, that's good news for somebody. Bob Segher Crossing. Edison Twin Season 1. It's all there. Oh, that's good news for somebody. Bob Segherini was hoping for some revival. Is there really? I don't think so.
Starting point is 00:05:11 Because Bob will get his teeth fixed if he can get some royalties from them. They're not getting fixed because it's not on there. But anyway, Hollywood Suite is an awesome platform. Yeah. And if you want, you can – I know Mike has tweeted out a few... Honestly, I've lost all my credibility because I've become a shill factory. That's not a shill.
Starting point is 00:05:30 Corporate shill. When it's your friend and somebody who's a part of this program, it's not a shill. I know. And I care about you more than Cam because Cam, who's known you since high school, has not yet tweeted about this. I'm going to be watching this week.
Starting point is 00:05:41 That's the thing. He's not going to... I know Cam that he's going to tweet out his honest feelings after he's seen the film. Every time he's seen one of my movies, he always supports good or bad. I've been to three premieres at the Royal Cinema for Stew Stone Productions, and they were all like a fucking great time. So anyway, the movie's available, and I appreciate the tweets. Keep them coming at us at Hollywood Suite.
Starting point is 00:06:03 Hashtag Faking a Murderer. If you like the movie, we'd love to hear from you. And, uh, like I said, in a couple, in about a month, we'll be the next time I'm with you, Mike, uh, potentially in person, but I'll have some kind of, hopefully some gimmicks and prizes and stuff to give away to the FOT. Oh my God. This is exciting. So we back up the truck a moment. You just buried the lead there. Sorry.
Starting point is 00:06:24 What do you mean you're not going to be back in this backyard for another few weeks? Well, it's getting cold. What's going on, Stu? Oh, no, I have some travel issues that have come up. I know traveling during a pandemic is not ideal, but a situation has come up which has caused me to have to travel. So, you know, if you travel even for a couple of days, you've got to quarantine for two weeks.
Starting point is 00:06:47 You've got to do the right thing. Yeah, 14 days at least. So that would take me, I mean, that means we're Zooming. Unless you guys get together next week, you can. Let's do Zoom. What a weasel. I'll be here. I'm going to set up out here even if I'm alone.
Starting point is 00:07:02 Well, your children are here. I'll put Jarvis and Morgan at those chairs there. We'll figure something out. So that's just to let everybody know, this will be our last in-person recording for a few weeks. Stu Stone has, you know, you got to go where the money is. I understand completely. But be safe when you're down there.
Starting point is 00:07:19 Of course. I mean, I'm safe when I'm back here. So nothing's going to change. Nothing's going to change, my love for you. Glenn Medeiros. Shout out to Mike Grogowski. That's right. Good for you.
Starting point is 00:07:30 I was thinking a lot about last week's episode and the engagement from one DJ Lethal. Yeah, Lethal's the man. He was huge. He was huge. So I referenced the song, and I couldn't pull it off the top of my head because I'm getting older and lots is going on.
Starting point is 00:07:44 But this is the jam. Getting older and lots is going on. But this is the jam. Getting older and lots going on. Just a little taste of a song I really liked from the debut House of Pain. Lethal did this track. Yes, he's scratching on this. You see I'm Irish, but I'm not a leprechaun. You want to fight, then step up and we'll get it on. You get a right to the grill.
Starting point is 00:08:04 So funny. Always really liked it. We talked about the Judgment Date jam that they did. Just another, what was their song? Just Another Murderer? Victim. Just Another Victim. Just Another Victim, kid.
Starting point is 00:08:19 But shout out to DJ Lethal. I just think it's amazing that he'll engage with you, Stu. And I think he's a very talented individual. Well, he was, he was, DJ Lethal was dropping some fun facts in the chat window. No, he gets it. I think he gets it. He knows what's up. Yeah, it's awesome.
Starting point is 00:08:33 So you're going to wear the mask the whole time? I don't know, but he, I have some Lethal news. Next July, there's a big rock fest happening in Wisconsin. And it's going to be headlined by Limp Bizkit, Reunion. Whoa. happening in Wisconsin, and it's going to be headlined by Limp Bizkit, Reunion, and Snoop Dogg, and Disturbed,
Starting point is 00:08:50 and a bunch of other rock and roll outfits. But Limp Bizkit's going to be playing. We'll do our new metal episode that week. We should go. We should go. I don't know if I can commit to Wisconsin that soon. Take a roadie to Wisconsin? When is it? Next July? Next July. Late July.
Starting point is 00:09:03 This is like a big outdoor thing. Yeah, it's like a three-day outdoor fest. Now, that's going to be interesting if we'll be able to do that next summer. I know I've seen, I read an article this week, will the Coachella Festival happen? And that's in April, and there seems like there's serious doubts. God willing, there'll be outdoor music next July. It's up to the big guy upstairs.
Starting point is 00:09:24 Yeah, the man upstairs. Ivan, I think. Jarvis. So we'll find out about that. But shout out to DJ Lethal. Stu, in one of the tweets, you know, there's a lot of hockey transactions over the last week. And you tweeted about TJ Brody. Like, do you have a personal relationship with him?
Starting point is 00:09:39 Like, do you know TJ Brody? Well, I know him from playing fantasy hockey. He was a pretty good defenseman to have on your fantasy hockey team. He puts up numbers in all the categories. I get him mixed up with TJ Oshie. Oshie? Is that the guy? Oshie. Washington Capitals.
Starting point is 00:10:01 Yeah, yeah, yeah. He's like the penalty shot master, right? Oshie. The one who shot like the penalty shot master, right? Oshie, yeah. Oshie. The one who shot like 100 penalty shots in a row at the Olympics. But Brody, TJ Brody, right? Bruiser Brody. He's a good player.
Starting point is 00:10:14 Yeah. And he's the guy that we need. We need defense, and we're getting the defenseman. So go Leafs go 2021. Here's a fun fact. I know we like our fun facts. FOTM Jeff Merrick has two boys, one named TJ, the other named Brody. Oh, look at that.
Starting point is 00:10:29 So he'll be happy. That's a fun fact. Is that true? Yeah, that's true. Wow. He should get a signed jersey. And that's the most exciting fun fact since when my son, my firstborn, when he was young, we would listen to Raptor games in the car.
Starting point is 00:10:40 And we had a, I guess you guys might remember the great Raptor, Mike James. Does that name ring a bell? Yeah, Mike James. Yeah, I guess you guys might remember the great Raptor, Mike James. Does that name ring a bell? Yeah, Mike James, yeah, I remember him. James was very excited to hear a player that was named Mike James. It was like both of us. Like the 11th man of the year. He was very excited.
Starting point is 00:10:56 Can I bring up real quick the Humble and Fred experience? Oh yeah, I was going to ask you, sorry, yes. So you appeared on Humble and Fred yesterday. Talk to me about it. Yeah, first of all, thank you, Mike. You're always looking out for me. You're my unofficial Toronto public relations master.
Starting point is 00:11:10 But yeah, listen, it was my second, my third career visit to Humble and Fred. My second in this era of Humble and Fred. And I gotta tell you that as much as I hate waking up early in the morning, it's always a good time when it's done.
Starting point is 00:11:25 You're like happy you did. I think, you know, once you get on it, like Howard is a very, you know, he's a straight shooter. You know, if he doesn't like you, he's going to mess with you. And I feel like I get treated well by him. So I think... Well, he does like you. And I can tell you in the Zoom era,
Starting point is 00:11:42 which is basically during this pandemic, if he doesn't like you, he just wraps it up and he goes and talks about Trump for 20 minutes. Like this is so, the fact he kept you for the whole segment is evidence. I think we get along. You're saying he's a fuss. Like it's not like when he,
Starting point is 00:11:55 when he says, I say that humble, humble in me are buddies. Like we weren't just talking about faking a murder. He was asking me for like my take on, you know, like a official industry type shit. So,
Starting point is 00:12:06 you know, I was like pretty, uh, it was pretty cool. Hollywood reporter. And Fred is a very nice man too. And I heard you shout out, cause I,
Starting point is 00:12:12 of course I listened. That's my job. I wanted to hear how Stu was on Humble and Fred and you, you shouted out Palma Pasta. I did. I got a, I did it in the form of some humor, but I got,
Starting point is 00:12:21 I got some Palma Pasta. And most importantly, you shouted out Pandemic Friday. Twice. It was brought up. They seemed very surprised that you have been here every week for 31 weeks or whatever. They seemed very surprised. I don't know. Maybe jealous is the word I would use.
Starting point is 00:12:36 Because they did say that they wanted to be booked on an episode of Pandemic Friday. Now, that's a lie. Well, you know, you don't have to hold him back. There's our next week. I'll get Humble and Fred back here and we'll zoom in Cam and Stu but uh i still can't get over that you put out a movie like you made that movie and then i got i saw it two weeks ago so i saw a bunch of fotms kind of waited for the like i have to say i was always confused by the launch date because it's like well you can watch it now like what does a launch date mean if it's already available like i just let it go
Starting point is 00:13:04 whatever but last night was the night you wanted to make the most noise. I'm sure you had a marketing reason for that. And then I would like get these like DMS and this feedback from listeners who would like right after they watched it. And they're like, that was fucking good. Oh yeah. Like this isn't,
Starting point is 00:13:17 I honestly, they're not blowing smoke up your ass. I don't think if it was a piece of crap, they would have, it would have been a different kind of like, Oh, very proud of you. That was pretty good, buddy. That was cool yeah like that was pretty cool and then i think they would privately be dming me and be like don't tell stew but like
Starting point is 00:13:34 woof what a steaming pile of shit that was but to a t i think they all enjoy it and there's some there's cans of great lakes beer in there. All over the place. Your name's in the credits, most importantly. Most importantly. I'm going to be watching this weekend. It's on my agenda. Maybe next week I'll give my thoughts. He's such a piece of shit, apparently. No, I think that's good.
Starting point is 00:13:57 If I'm not here, Cam will be honest. Good weekend activity, yeah. I'm a straight shooter. Come on. Well, you're a shooter. He's in communications he's always very honest not Peter Norris
Starting point is 00:14:07 that's a porno star here's a funny story you thinking of Peter Gross? well him too he's been with the supermodel we're sitting in the living room my sister Carrie and myself and my nephew
Starting point is 00:14:24 and my sister, Carrie's husband, Brad, we're all sitting in the living room watching something or other, and my nephew says the name of an adult film star. And it goes unnoticed, but I kind of give him a look like, what did you just say? How old's your nephew? He's 14. And I said, what did you just say? How old is your nephew? He's 14. And I said, what did you just say?
Starting point is 00:14:46 And he's like, oh, nothing. And I'm like, how do you know that name? He's like, how do you know that name? I'm like, well,
Starting point is 00:14:52 how do you know that name? And then his parents were like, what name? And then it turned into a whole thing. Wow. It sounds like a bit. It was like a bit. It was like a bit.
Starting point is 00:15:01 At that age, I had to find a bag of Playboys in Hyde Park. That's where I was at. That's pretty i had to find like a bag of like playboys in high park like that's where i was at that's pretty awful i know a bag of abandoned playboys seriously seriously oh god at 14 do that in the covet so like the whole like times have changed so radically like we would find like you'd find somebody's porno stash like yeah seriously buried in a park or something i'm serious i'm dead serious. Like a bag? You pleasured yourself. A young Mike pleasured himself to bury it in the park. Bag of Playboys. Young Mike?
Starting point is 00:15:30 I'm doing that now. Are you kidding me? Oh, that's the bike trips. Yeah. That was your unauthorized hang. You went like half an hour early with like a shovel. It's actually his stash that he buried in the park. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:15:42 Kids have it so easy now. They have no idea. But Playboys were so tame compared to the other sort of magazines with weird names that were out there. Yeah, they're like swank.
Starting point is 00:15:51 Just like things that came in a plastic wrapping. Right. Yeah, well, Playboy was, because Playboy never had insertion. Like there was no sex. Well, yeah.
Starting point is 00:15:58 It was just nudity in Playboys. But there was like a lot of like famous people wrote for Playboy. Oh yeah, yeah, yeah. Good articles. Oh yeah, I used to buy for the articles.
Starting point is 00:16:08 That's the joke. I read it for the articles because it really was hard-hitting journalism at one point. No, absolutely. It was a real deal. I'm trying to think. Hugh Hefner died this year.
Starting point is 00:16:18 No, I feel like it was three years ago or four years ago. Was it really? Yeah, it's been a long year. We forget. We just wrapped up the NBA and I saw Stu was saying he was hoping that LeBron James would say this is for Kobe. Yeah, he didn't do that.
Starting point is 00:16:35 Yeah, I know. I didn't feel he had to do that. This is the right thing to do. But he had a lot of like social media content to that effect after the fact. I know, I'm just saying like in the moment. So you were hoping he would do that. In the moment, it would have been a nice gesture to be like,
Starting point is 00:16:47 Kobe, this one's for you. But don't you find it strange that we're in the same calendar year that Kobe Bryant died? Yeah, it's terrible. I feel like five years ago. It's also just like weird that LeBron James just won a championship as a Los Angeles Laker. Just the whole thing just kind of feels weird.
Starting point is 00:17:00 Yeah. And apparently a lot of people tuned out. Like I saw like five million people watched or something which is a fraction of what they would typically get for an nba final so i don't think the heat uh god love them were a huge draw the only buckets was awesome yeah he was awesome and that was at game four get my games right no game five in game five the toe-to-toe fourth quarter was great was just epic
Starting point is 00:17:26 like it was just unbelievable he's fearless who wants to unveil the topic for tonight's pandemic Friday before you do that
Starting point is 00:17:33 I have like such a fun fact that I'm waiting to drop a bomb on you guys yeah please of course this is just like a random fun fact I could save this
Starting point is 00:17:40 fun fact for like sometime when this artist's name or you know if we ever play this artist's songs or if we ever play this artist's songs or anything, but I saw something the other day that caught my eye about
Starting point is 00:17:50 this has nothing to do with the show. It's not a story about me. It's just a fun fact. You're familiar with Sade? Of course. Swedish taboo. Swedish taboo. I think Cam pronounced it Sade. Here's the crazy fun fact about Sade that I learned. And since we think Cam pronounced it Sade. Sade. Here's the crazy fun fact about Sade that I learned.
Starting point is 00:18:07 And since we haven't played any Sade songs... If I move Cam like to this seat, will you take off the mask? No, I'll pull down the mask for you. Is it bothering you?
Starting point is 00:18:16 Look at this pressure. I can see the waveform. It's like he's on Zoom. Okay. Interesting. I can hear it. It doesn't sound bad. It sounds much better.
Starting point is 00:18:23 Do I need a cloth mask? Is a cloth mask better? I don't know. It's a high-in-cells mask. If you want the mask on, it's just strange that all of a sudden you're wearing the mask. Sade. Her name is not Sade. I'm sure that wasn't hard to figure out.
Starting point is 00:18:39 Her real name is Helen Adu. What if I told you that the band's name is Sade and she is not Sade. The band that she was in is called Sade and then she ended up just becoming Sade the same way like Marilyn Manson or Alice Cooper or any of that stuff.
Starting point is 00:18:56 So Sade was the name of the band. Or Biff Naked, I think. Isn't that crazy? Yeah. That's a mind blow for me. That's good. That's a good one. I had no idea. Sade, I haven't Isn't that crazy? That's a mind blow for me. That's good. That's a good one. I had no idea. Sade,
Starting point is 00:19:07 I haven't heard much from her lately. But the band was called Sade. I had no idea. I like these. Keep these coming. That blows my mind. And since she's not relevant to the topic this week, I knew it wouldn't come up. Well, it depends. Is she Erykah Badu's mother?
Starting point is 00:19:23 She could be. What's her name? What did you say her name was? well it depends is she Erykah Badu's mother she could be why would you think that oh is that her last name I didn't say that but what did you say Addu Shade's real name is Helen Helen Addu Helen sings Swedish taboo
Starting point is 00:19:41 so if and this is not the case but if Shade were the mother of Erykah Badu, we could kick out Erykah Badu tonight and that would be a worthy jam for what we're doing tonight which is called
Starting point is 00:19:53 Offspring Jams. Now, not Offspring, like I played Bad Habit the other day from Smash. Keep it separated. Do that thing at the beginning again. La, la, la, la, la, la, la.
Starting point is 00:20:05 Oh, I hope your mom's not listening. Okay. She tuned out when you told me to take off the mask, but go ahead. You can put back on the mask. No, no, it's fine. I feel like I pressured you to take it off. It's up to Cam, I guess. Listen, Mr. Trump, it's all good.
Starting point is 00:20:15 It's not like that. It's just I would move you. It's fine. Don't worry about it. Okay, okay, okay. You do sound better without the mask. I'm looking at the way. Okay, so offspring jams.
Starting point is 00:20:24 I can see my droplets. Yeah, yeah, at the wave. Okay, so Offspring Jams. I can see my droplets. Yeah, yeah, there's some. Okay, that's healthy. Come on now. Don't make this a super spreader event over here. Offspring Jams means we're going to kick out jams by an artist whose parent or parents, one of their parents is also a musician.
Starting point is 00:20:44 So we don't have to love the musicians so we don't have to love the musicians like we don't have to love the parents music they don't have to be like a favorite artist of ours or whatever so we're just going to kick out jams by like second generation musicians is that a good way to say it yeah i i think that's fair and and i think in general and if you guys were like me it's not just well well you know uh, Eddie Vedder's dad played banjo. Like professional musicians, their parents were. Well, what if Eddie Vedder's dad played banjo professionally, was like a session musician?
Starting point is 00:21:15 Well, Eddie Vedder's dad was a professional musician. Is that true? I just made that up. Is that true? He was a Dutch jazz pianist, I think. Eddie Vedder. Oh, did you say Eddie? You know what I'm thinking?
Starting point is 00:21:25 Eddie Van Halen. Yeah, I'm hearing Eddie Van Halen. Shout out to South Pasadena, by the way. That's where the Van Halen family was from. Yes. Right. They came from Amsterdam, if I remember correctly. By the way, before we start, so now that we've established what the topic is, we can circle
Starting point is 00:21:40 around to this mind blow, but I just want to make sure that... That Sade is the band's name? No, that this... Okay. Yeah. Here's like a mind blow. Yeah. And want to make sure that... That Sade is the band's name? No, that this... Okay. Yeah. Here's like a mind blow. Yeah. And maybe this is known.
Starting point is 00:21:49 I'm not sure. We were just talking about NBA. Yeah. Mike Love of the Beach Boys. Yes, Kevin Love. Yeah. Is that generally... I just found that out.
Starting point is 00:21:57 Yeah, I think that's generally known. Wow. I never knew this until like last night when I was researching this episode. Well, speaking of Eddie Vedder, who I thought you were talking about, I was thinking Eddie Van Halen, so I transposed it or whatever. But Eddie Vedder,
Starting point is 00:22:11 I just want to shout out Ben Rayner, who's going to be in this backyard on Monday night to kick out more jams and shoot the shit and tell us. He's up to some new projects and stuff. Yeah, with like, he's co-hosting a show with someone. it, he's co-hosting a show with someone. Yeah, he's co-hosting
Starting point is 00:22:26 a show with someone. I think Lisa Ladasur is involved as well. Yes. And he also did something at the El Macombo for the, Oh, no.
Starting point is 00:22:36 No, for the Gore Downie album. Oh. Like something there. Like maybe, I don't know who he spoke to, but. I thought he was doing,
Starting point is 00:22:43 who's the guy again? Michael Weckerly. Michael Weckerly. who comes up a lot on this show yeah well he's uh trying to woo john gallagher right right yeah ben rayner is going to produce the gallagher and gross save the world uh everybody should listen to peter gross at toronto mike he was fantastic yeah that that was an incredible like mike you almost need to do like a 30 minute like deconstruction of that sounds like that's the episode that i have to listen to on my travel oh it's fantastic it's a tight hour and it's really just a man who is uh susceptible to online sales pitches and infomercials like you should hear this episode you have to hear this episode i'll check it out but it sounds like someone that i should probably have an intervention with i'd say to put in pro wrestling terms like he's a bit of a mark
Starting point is 00:23:24 i think a bit of a mark. I think we might have to bring him in person with me so that I can have a talking with him. You're going to fleece him. You're going to sell him something. I'm going to try. I almost felt bad doing the episode because it really does mark him. Somebody could send him an email and say,
Starting point is 00:23:38 I got some magic beans. What's his email address? I think he gave it out on the episode. If you give me a thousand bucks, I'm going you these magic beans he might do it i i will say there was one product he described that i would like which is the silicon mat for the chicken all right right right that sounded like a fun product get one at like winners or something like you can probably guess so i don't think you have to go order that online from some u.s place i don't go i don't buy shit on face right well i said that i said if you were my
Starting point is 00:24:08 dad i think we had a moment i said if you were my dad i'd have a blanket rule like do not buy anything via facebook like just a black and white rule if you were my dad and then i started to cry speaking of things that's true speaking that's that's low blow. No, no, I mean prior to his passing we have. No, in general. Well, it's my blow too. Speaking of blow, what happened to the heater that used to be out here? I didn't think it was cold enough. Like it felt warm.
Starting point is 00:24:36 Do you really need it? I'm just kidding. No, no, I was just wondering what happened to it. I thought it was pretty warm out here. Maybe my gauge is off. By the way, Mike, before we start, what's your hoodie there? Abercrombie and Fitch. Oh, yeah.
Starting point is 00:24:50 It's my son's hoodie. He gave it to me like five years ago. And it's literally the most comfortable thing I own. And I wear it like all winter long. And those are like pre-distressed elbows, right? Yeah, well, yeah. That's what Monica's joke is. Now they're becoming real because I wear it so much.
Starting point is 00:25:03 It's like the Gordie Howe. But they were meant to be. They're phony. And then now they're real. But yeah wear it so much. It's like the Gordie Howe. But they were meant to be. They're phony, and then now they're real. But yeah. Real tough guy. This is your winter outfit. Yeah. So you have like a sweatsuit for six months and shorts for six months.
Starting point is 00:25:13 I have 150 t-shirts, which make the rotational summer long. And then I have one hoodie I like to wear. The Lost Indy City. I have a new t-shirt for you. Remind me to give it to you. Okay. Yeah. I do like t-shirts.
Starting point is 00:25:23 Okay. I want to get rocking here. Offspring jams. Offspring jams. Drivers are rude. Such attitude. Okay, so I'm kind of... Give it to me, baby.
Starting point is 00:25:36 I'm excited here. I'm excited. This is a good... So these are artists who have parents who are also professional musicians of note. So like Cam said, yeah, maybe you were a pro session guy, but these are more like noteworthy musicians, the parents, I hope.
Starting point is 00:25:50 Well, you can, you know, I'm looking at your list and they pretty much are pretty big names, these parents here. I know one of them, but we'll get to it because there's a fun story there. I actually learned lots doing the research with some of this. So I'm excited. You ready for your first jam, Cam? Yes, I am.
Starting point is 00:26:11 Start that strong. Take the snake. Go on and close the curtains Cause all we need is a candlelight You and me and a bottle of wine And I'll hold you tonight Well we know I'm going away And how I wish, I wish it were so

Say tonight, fight the breakup, don't come tomorrow. Tomorrow I'll be gone. Say tonight, fight the breakup, don't come tomorrow. Tomorrow I'll be gone, say tonight. FightTheBreaker.com Tomorrow, tomorrow I'll be gone. There's a light on the fire. Nice choice, Cam.
Starting point is 00:27:13 Yeah, so this is, Mike, I think it was last week's episode we were talking about legitimate one-hit wonders, not aha, that in North America one-hit wonders. Right, like true, yeah, like Gautier. Yeah, yeah. I feel like this fella would qualify. So this is Eagle Eye Cherry. Indeed. From 1997 with the song...
Starting point is 00:27:39 Nina Cherry's brother? Half-brother. Half-brother. With the song Save Tonight. I don't like half-brother. It bothers me. It's brother. It's brother. Brother. I the song Save Tonight. I don't like Half Brother. It bothers me. It's brother. It's brother.
Starting point is 00:27:47 Brother. I live in this world. Every time I hear that, I have to pipe in here. They're siblings. Absolutely. Okay. So this is... Wow, this song's like 23 years old.
Starting point is 00:27:57 I mean, you know, one of those like wanna feel old. Like, I don't know. I remember this song was a massive hit. Big hit. Big hit. Multi-format CFNY Mix 99.9. Yeah, you're right. It crossed the genres.
Starting point is 00:28:13 You're absolutely right. It was a big one. Big one. Absolutely. And a good song. Yeah. Yeah. And I think it ages very well, too.
Starting point is 00:28:20 The sounds. This could come out today, I feel like, might still be a hit. More comp. Eh, maybe not. Only hip-hop is a hit now. You never know. Or R&B. So anyway, Eagle Eye Cherry, not only is his sister Nana Cherry,
Starting point is 00:28:34 his dad is Don Cherry. Now, to clarify, most Canadians would say, you know, grapes, obviously the hockey personality. This is the saxophonist and jazz musician Don Cherry who was kind of like a freeform jazz guy, hung out with Ornette Coleman and people like that
Starting point is 00:28:54 back in a lot of 60s, 70s, kind of that freaky jazz stuff that was going on there, the freeform. I guess probably like a cult figure in the broader culture, but had two very successful offspring who topped the charts. Maybe we'll
Starting point is 00:29:10 be hearing from Nenna later. We'll see. We'll see. Now, great choice. This gentleman, Don Cherry, died... His name is Don Cherry? Yeah. He died... Where were you been the last two minutes? I wasn't listening to that. He died pretty young. He died at 58. Yeah, so you're right.
Starting point is 00:29:25 He died in the late 60s, which is, I mean, Eagle Eye Cherry, I believe, was quite young. No, he died in 95, I think. Oh, he was in 95? Okay, sorry. Eagle Eye Cherry was part of the 90s. Okay, so R.E.P. the other Don Cherry. Our Don Cherry is going to live forever, I think.
Starting point is 00:29:44 So, shitload of fun facts About Eagle Eye Cherry here All sorts of fun stuff On his Wikipedia page At 16 he enrolled at the High School of Performing Arts In New York City in the same class as Amongst others Jennifer Aniston And Chaz Bono
Starting point is 00:29:58 Which is kind of unique Wow Do you guys, do guys like Dudley Moore? Arthur? I like Christopher Cross. Yeah, the theme from Arthur. Is that the theme? Let's go to the sequel.
Starting point is 00:30:14 I need a cup between the moon and New York City. We're of a certain age where we remember Dudley Moore. I remember Arthur 2 on the rocks was one of Cam's favorite movies. I was going to say, if you look close enough, you would have seen Eagle Eye Cherry in that movie. Oh, snap.
Starting point is 00:30:29 Now, he was only credited as a teenager, but he was also an actor, I guess, after he did his chops with Jennifer Aniston and Chaz Bono. He actually got a role in Arthur 2 on the rocks. Wow. And this song, again, massive hit, top ten in US, Canada, Greece, Belgium, Ireland, Poland. Poland? Poland, massive hit top 10 in us can agrees, Belgium,

No, Eagle Eye Cherry is the David Hasselhoff. What's Eagle Eye's real name? I think that's his real name. Is that right? Eagle is his real name? Wow.

Wow. was born in sweden um let that sink in in stockholm so this song stockholm syndrome wow this song was awarded uh the rock bajoon award is the swedish song of the year in 1997 i guess that's their version of like the juno awards now here's here's a quiz for you guys yeah that same

Shania Twain. Both good guesses. It was actually I'll Be Missing You by Puff Daddy. Oh, and The Family. And The Family. Of course. So there you go. Eagle Eye Cherry, Save Tonight. Kick us
Starting point is 00:31:57 off tonight on Pandemic Fridays. It's his only song to chart in the US charts. It's the only charting US single, but he did have songs. He had a song that reached number 18 in Sweden called Are You Still Having Fun? I haven't heard that.
Starting point is 00:32:13 I don't know if you want me to dig it up. No, thanks. But he's pretty clear. In this side of the pond, he's sort of like, do you remember the artist Duncan Sheik? I do, yes. Duncan Sheik had a big fucking hit, Barely Breathing. Barely Breathing, yeah. Name another Duncan Sheik? I do. Yes. Like Duncan Sheik had a big fucking hit,
Starting point is 00:32:25 Barely Breathing. Barely Breathing, yeah. Name another Duncan Sheik. And Duncan Sheik's father, the Iron Sheik. Right. But Iron Sheik's not a musician, so you can't. That's why he's not on the list. You gotta be a musician.
Starting point is 00:32:37 Okay, good start. That's the second week in a row. He's really picked up his game. Well, you know, that's because we criticized him. Yeah, shame me. I love this pick by Stu Stone. You ready? Let's hear it. Yeah, shame me. I love this pick by Stu Stone. You ready? Let's hear it.
Starting point is 00:32:47 Yeah, I'm ready. I fucking hate this. I'm going to lay low. Ever since you've been leaving me I've been wanting to cry Now I know how it feels for you I've been wanting to die But it's much too late for goodbyes All right. We've got Much Too Late for Goodbyes by Julian Lennon, son of John Lennon.
Starting point is 00:33:53 I'm Alan Cross. I chatted with Alan today. Oh, lucky guy. Was he there or here? I booked him on Humble and Fred. Oh. Much Too Late for Goodbyes. Too Late for Goodbyes. I remember this song from back in the day. Big hit. First single from Julian Lennon's 1984
Starting point is 00:34:12 album, which was a top ten hit in the UK and the US. Went to number five on the Billboard chart. Went to number one on the adult contemporary chart, which is pretty cool. His father's John Lennon. I mean, talk about pressure. That's big. Interestingly enough, what if I told you some fun facts about Julian Lennon, that he was the inspiration behind three Beatles songs?
Starting point is 00:34:41 Hey Jude. Hey Jude was originally called Hey Jules, and it was written about Julian Lennon. And they changed the words to Hey Jude because it sounded better. So Hey Jude was written about Julian Lennon. What else? Do you have one? I'm going to say Lucy in the Sky of Diamonds. That is also correct.
Starting point is 00:34:55 Really? Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds. Because he drew a picture. It was based off a picture that he drew. Now, Good Night is the third one, which we don't really know that well. Okay. But I will say that according to my research, to quote a Magic School Bus character, after John Lennon passed away or was shot and killed,
Starting point is 00:35:17 Julian Lennon's kind of true feelings a few years later started to sort of come out about how he felt about his dad. And he really wasn't really happy about his dad in his relationship with his father and actually was a lot closer with Paul McCartney than he was with his dad. And if you look at, you know, he mentioned in this interview that I had checked out that if you look at childhood pictures,
Starting point is 00:35:40 it smells like Kareem's around. Kareem is in the house. I can smell him. He's holding. If you look at photographs of childhood photographs, there's more photographs of Julian Lennon playing with Paul McCartney
Starting point is 00:35:54 than with his own dad. I've heard some stories. I don't want to scoop potential later pics, but he's probably like 10 years older than Sean Lennon. I know different moms and stuff.
Starting point is 00:36:09 Would you be happy to know that Julian Lennon had to go to court over his dad's estate because his father took him out of his will? I've heard these stories. Yeah, there's some sadness. No, I'm not telling you to tell him. I'm just saying there's some sadness in Julian's upbringing.
Starting point is 00:36:30 I'd say, by all accounts, John Lennon, not a great guy. Of the four Beatles, he's the one who had the most assholic qualities. Yeah, just like a lot of stuff. To quote 5440. I'll give you a quick quote here, okay? He admitted to beating his first wife. Sure. Well, I don't,
Starting point is 00:36:49 that part I didn't get to. He's some like racist, like all sorts of stuff. Well, he also, and I like the song, A Woman is the N-Word of the World. Like that's triggering, there's a lot of stuff.
Starting point is 00:37:00 There's a lot of stuff. Can I give you some direct quotes? But that's a great song. I just don't sing it a lot. Some direct quotes, real quick. He said, I've never really wanted to know the truth. I never really wanted to know the truth about how dad was with me. It's hard for me to read this.
Starting point is 00:37:15 There was some very negative stuff he said about me, like that I came out of a whiskey bottle on a Saturday night, stuff like that. You think, where's the love in that? Paul and I used to hang out quite a bit, more than Dad and I did. We had a great friendship going, and there seems to be far more pictures of me and Paul playing together at that age than there are pictures of me and Dad. Julian chafed at hearing his father's peace and love stance perpetually celebrated. He told the Delhi Telegraph,
Starting point is 00:37:43 I have to say that from my point of view, I felt he was a hypocrite. He said, Dad could talk about peace and love out loud to the world, but he could never show it to the people who supposedly meant the most to him, his wife and his son. How can you talk about peace and love and have a family in bits and pieces? No communication,
Starting point is 00:38:00 adultery, divorce. I didn't do this to tear down John Lennon here, by the way. There's enough books on this. Blush and Blood. We do real talk on this show. So Julian Lennon was... We got Julian Lennon back in that book. Interesting.
Starting point is 00:38:11 But Paul McCartney sounds like he's a great guy. Paul McCartney comes out of this one sounding like a great guy. I think he is a good guy. He's a cute one. And Hey Jude is a Paul McCartney song written to Julian. I was going to say, yeah. Because one of the more beautiful John Lennon compositions is for Sean, Beautiful Boy.
Starting point is 00:38:30 That's a beautiful song. Beautiful, beautiful. That's for Sean. Sure. I always wondered how Julian felt hearing that beautiful song for Sean. Stu, in your research, so this album's what, 1984? What does Julian Lennon, does he still put out albums? He's an artist.
Starting point is 00:38:44 He's become a philanthropist, obviously obviously he's a very successful artist has art galleries art showing stuff like that oh uh he's doing pretty good um because i feel like in the 80s there'd always be the rumors they were the beatles would get back together with julian in the john spot like that was sort of just like fantasy booking well if you listen to that song, which is the only Julian song I really know, to be honest. I think that's his like biggest hit. Oh, for sure. It's his biggest hit.
Starting point is 00:39:10 Julian and his brother, Sean, sued their father's estate in 1996. They reached a settlement authorized by Yoko Ono, reportedly worth 20 million pounds. Wow. So he ended up getting the money in court, but he was written out of his dad's will. And so was Sean.
Starting point is 00:39:24 What a dick. Now I'm mad at John again. Yeah. But what was I going to say? Oh, yeah, he sounds like John. Like, if you listen to that song, I was closing my eyes with the headphones, and it's like, it sounds like John.
Starting point is 00:39:35 Well, like, he's clearly John's son, too. The resemblance is staggering. Just because people are good musicians doesn't make them great guys. But, you know, by all accounts, I still think... No, R. Kelly's got some good jams. I'm still a John Lennon fan despite knowing this information, but it's just a little bit of a...
Starting point is 00:39:52 Right. Problematic. There's a lot. Problematic, as Cam would say. Okay. I'm going to kick out this jam first because Cam stole my thunder. Before you do that,
Starting point is 00:40:03 we've got some comments in the... It's on fire. Oh, it's working? Because I went back in and it wouldn't let me comment. Someone wrote, smells like Kareem has arrived. Kareem, shut up, buddy.
Starting point is 00:40:15 Hi, Tim. That goes out to Tim, who's in there. Ian Service. Someone, Johnny O, said when he was young, he used to confuse Julian Lennon with Air Gross
Starting point is 00:40:25 Air Gross? A-Y-R-E, Air Gross Well, you know, Johnny's got 15 years on us Peter Gross I confused Julian with Peter Gross I'm using the Periscope app, I can't chat This guy's always complaining, come on man No, you gotta be nice to Ian Service
Starting point is 00:40:42 He's literally hosting this audio Get it together, Tim. What the hell? Get Barb Paluski in there. Come on. Barb. Call Barb. By the way, has there been an erotic web chat? Has computer service happened yet?
Starting point is 00:40:54 Yeah, Elvira. Elvira's happening next Thursday at noon. I tweeted a link. You can sign up for this webinar. She's only allowing 100 people in there. She's promising me that she's going to be dressed like Elvira and she'll be in the guise of screen grabs i'm gonna well you should be giving free computer advice we're gonna yeah it's gonna be a real webinar but she'll be elvira i'll be myself and i'll interview elvira about these uh these these
Starting point is 00:41:20 it things so yeah shout out to barb paluskiewicz, great partner of the program. I'm kicking out, are you done? Stu, sorry. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Okay, okay. That was awesome. This is tying in with Cam's jam.
Starting point is 00:41:34 Oh wow, we got in the same round. Love it. Siblings, siblings in the same round. I bumped her up in the rotation. The better song of the two, in my opinion.
Starting point is 00:41:43 Yes, no doubt about it. Why don't we hear this more? Like, I love this song. I have it on my phone. I play it on my car all the rotation. The better song of the two, in my opinion. No doubt about it. Why don't we hear this more? I love this song. I have it on my phone. I play it in my car all the time. It was on Rap Trax, too. I love my Rap Trax compilation. Sucker. Draw a sucking beer through straws, dropping down their drawers. Where did you get yours? Jiggle-o. Huh? Sucker.
Starting point is 00:42:07 Jiggle-o. Jiggle-o. Huh? So good. Sucker. Yeah, here it comes. Who's looking good today? Who's looking good in every way? No stop key.
Starting point is 00:42:19 You better watch, don't mess with me. No money, man. The guy had, like, the key turn. I kind of like the message he sends out. This is a great jam. Yeah. Awesome. Okay. So you stole a bit of my thunder.
Starting point is 00:42:48 Dawn Cherry. It's actually Dawn Cherry is the, I believe, the stepdad, but we didn't discuss that. I think that counts. Close enough. And you call her Nena. I thought you said it was Nina. Nina Cherry?
Starting point is 00:42:58 I've heard Nena or Nina. I've heard both. Because I remember when this was a big jam. I called it Nina back in the day, but I've heard Nana Cherry for sure. So Cam gets a pass this time. Well, I wasn't even questioning his, I was just thinking, I had to leave Butcher's name.
Starting point is 00:43:12 This is true. Brutus the Butcher. Can you believe this jam, Buffalo Stance, is from 1988? But there are, you know, and she's not a one-hit wonder. She had,
Starting point is 00:43:23 She had another one? Yeah. What was her other one? There was a member of the B-Boy dancing video like years later. Let me see which one it was. It's called like X. Buddy X. Boy for Buddy X.
Starting point is 00:43:38 Yeah. Was it Buddy X or Money Love? Well, she did a duet with Yoso Endure, too, called Seven Seconds. Do you remember that? I don't remember that, no. Maybe I do. Now, without a doubt. Kisses on the Wind.
Starting point is 00:43:50 Do you remember that? Yeah, she had multiple much music hits. That's sort of how I. Yeah. But not many. Like, I'd say not enough because she was fucking great. Buddy X, Kisses on the Wind and Buffalo Stance are her only three. Oh, Kisses in the Wind.
Starting point is 00:44:04 That was a hit. Kisses on the Wind. It was Stance are her only three. Oh, Kisses in the Wind. That was a hit. Kisses on the Wind, yeah. It was boys, boys. Thank you, dad, dad, dad. They're so young. Yeah. Making love was only a dream. Kisses on the Wind.
Starting point is 00:44:11 So this song, Buffalo Stance, peaked at number three on the Billboard Hot 100 in the US. So number three. And Kisses on the Wind peaked at number eight. Mike's just a gigolo, man. You know what I mean? peaked at number eight. Mike's just a gigolo, man. Can either of you, because I owned this on rap tracks, but can either of you name the album?
Starting point is 00:44:34 I have such a fun fact. 1988 or 89, 88 it would have been. God, I want to say the name so bad. I got my first CD player. Whoa. I thought it was something else. Early adopter. Yes. This is your first CD player. Whoa. I thought it was something else. Early adopter. Yes.
Starting point is 00:44:47 This is your first CD? The first CDs that I got was Nina Cherry, Soul to Soul, and Tone Loke. That was all three at once. Not bad. It was a CD player and those three CDs. So Nina Cherry got lots of spins. Raw Like Sushi. Yes.
Starting point is 00:45:06 Correct. So you probably bought the CDs with those long boxes like you go to Woolco. I was about to pick three CDs so I could have some CDs to get started. Yeah, yeah. Those are interesting choices. Good picks. All like sort of like hip hop, kind of early hip hop sort of. See, I think, okay, my first, I'm not ashamed to admit it,
Starting point is 00:45:27 the very first CD I bought when I got my first CD, like it's like a boom box, was Paula Abdul, Forever Your Girl. That was the first CD I know. Yeah, you called it Cold Hearted Snake? I don't, you know, I was still, that was the year, I think, 88 or whatever, I was making my transition to like being all about like, well, I was, I had whatever, where I was making my transition to being all about... I had the cassette for Appetite for Destruction, so I was already into a lot of...
Starting point is 00:45:51 You went from Guns N' Roses to Paula Abdul? I was all over the place. That was like 680 CFTR. Yeah, we've had this chat. Absolutely. 680 didn't play too much Guns N' Roses, did it? Yeah, I played it. And it would play like Def Leppard.
Starting point is 00:46:04 There was a lot of Def Leppard. Yeah, Bon Jovi. Bon Jovi for sure. Warrant. But that sort of belongs there. Yeah, absolutely. But then they'd have like boy bands and they'd have like R&B
Starting point is 00:46:12 and they'd have... Hits. Top 40. Hits. They'd have Young MC would be in there. Did you guys have a period... I had that CD as well, Young MC. Principal's Office.
Starting point is 00:46:20 Was that a hit? I feel like that was a hit. So, see not a one hit wonder? Yeah. Here's a question for you guys. Did you guys know Flea from the Red Hot Chilled Peppers prior to the Bust a Move video? Right, yes.
Starting point is 00:46:35 Because he had these stuffed animals on his pants. Yeah, because I thought it was just like Guy with stuffed animals. He's in the video? Oh, yeah. He's prominently featured. Like as an actor? Yeah, with the stuffed animal pen. He plays bass in that song.
Starting point is 00:46:46 You know, Young MC's not a one-hit wonder because he wrote hits for other artists, too. But that doesn't count. You know, as an artist... Wild Thing, the Tom Hanks songs were written by Young MC. Interesting, but that doesn't count for one-hit wonderdom. Like, you have to perform the song. I don't think he's a one-hit wonder
Starting point is 00:47:01 because I think the principal's office was a hit. But there was another song, like, in the 90s that he had that i liked uh i i for sure had the cassette single to it louis louis was fact he had a song do you know the song know how where he sampled the night rider theme oh no no i don't i don't know that one it's yeah it's a great okay can i ask a question to toronto mike and stewart if anyone in the chat room wants to chime in i'm curious stew mentioned getting his I don't know that one. Yeah, it's a great... Can I ask a question to Toronto Mike and Stuart? If anyone in the chat room wants to chime in. I'm curious. Stu mentioned getting his first CD player.
Starting point is 00:47:34 Did you guys have a period where you'd go into Sam the Record Man or Sunrise or HMV and you'd have to say, I want this album, but do I go sort of cheap and get the cassette? Oh, yeah, there was an overlap. Or make a splurge. Yeah, it's not like you have a moment where you stop buying cassettes. I definitely went quite a bit over that. There was a single called
Starting point is 00:47:49 Keep It In Your Pants, 1991, that was pretty good. From Young MC? Yes. Because he, I feel like he wrote or he produced like the Tone Loke album too,
Starting point is 00:47:57 did he not? Yeah, I said that. Yeah, he just said, you guys got to listen to each other. I can't listen to it. He'll listen to it on the replay.
Starting point is 00:48:03 His highest charting song was Bust a Move by far. But Principal's Office was number nine on the US rap charts. It got play. But then he kind of fell off after that.
Starting point is 00:48:15 Yeah. Okay, so he might have escaped one hit wonderdom possibly. But one day we'll have a great debate about this. More hits than me. Now, right.
Starting point is 00:48:23 Well, I don't know. Is that true? It depends. Bigger hits. Bigger hits possibly. But you did sell 300,000 albums. day we'll have a great debate about this more hits than me now right well i don't know is that true it depends bigger hits bigger hits possibly but you did sell 300 000 i mean personally out of the trunk i dropped that fun fact on somebody the other day we were talking about sloan versus stew stone because that fun fact has stuck with me blows my mind that stew stone sold more albums than sloan i mean oh of like a single, like his best-selling album. Their best album. Their most successful album.
Starting point is 00:48:49 If you added up all the Sloan albums, it might not match Stu Stone. But they're much better. By the way, I love Sloan. They're way better. I'm garbage compared to them. I agree with that. No, it's true.
Starting point is 00:49:02 I am. In all due respect to you, Stu Stone, who I love like a brother, okay, with all due respect, more than brothers, actually. More than words. More than extreme.
Starting point is 00:49:11 And alias. There's two of them. Wait, you know what? I want to say this, though, that you were not the feature, you were the second guy on that listing. People might have bought it
Starting point is 00:49:21 for Jamie Kennedy. I don't think so. I take offense to that. But I will say that Sloan sold more records than me in Canada. That's by far. They sold 70,000 more records than me in Canada. So there's that.
Starting point is 00:49:35 There's that. I'm excited to kick out Cam's second year. They're fucking awesome, so screw you. You're preaching to the choir here. Two of them, one in the basement and one back here. I remember seeing them in London, Ontario. What's that bar called?
Starting point is 00:49:49 Call the Office. Cuckoo Bananas. That's Oshawa. And I think I told this before, but they were like rotating instruments during the show.
Starting point is 00:49:56 Yeah, they do that. I saw them in December at the Phoenix. They still do that. They still do that because Murphy likes to play drums. There's a whole bunch
Starting point is 00:50:04 of mixing. He's a very lanky drummer too. Oh, that band, they're all. Murphy likes to play drums. There's a whole bunch of mixing. It's a very lanky drummer too. It's like the Beatles. They're the Beatles of Canada. Let's kick out Cam's second jam. This better be good. It's breezy. Maybe this is
Starting point is 00:50:22 Yacht Rock. This better be good. Stu says. Oh, is this Ziggy? Oh, nice. F-O-S-S. My mother, when I was leaving to come do your show, she's like, Ziggy Marley. Oh, Trudy.
Starting point is 00:50:50 But she was going to kick out the Earther theme. Good call. She might have. Which I was considering, actually. Ziggy Rolling Papers, shout out to your mother. This is a great song. Shout out to Ziggy Lawrence. Yeah, for sure.
Starting point is 00:51:03 And that guy in the comic strip that I never read. Ziggy, yeah. He was good. I got the Toronto Star. He was in The Sun. I got a Ziggy Bank once. It's a piggy bank made out of Ziggy. Ziggy Bank. And also I think Frank's the vodka's kid, Ziggy. Ziggy started that. He's great at that.
Starting point is 00:51:20 And also, I think it's like a President's Choice brand of something or other. Ziggy's, yeah. It would be like cold cuts. Yeah. Ziggy's. And finally, Zyg it's like a President's Choice brand of something or other. Ziggy's, yeah. It would be like cold cuts. Yeah. Ziggy's. And finally, Zygmunt Palfrey.
Starting point is 00:51:31 Ziggy. Faking a murder. Ziggy Papers. Yes. I mean. Come on. Spoilers. Who played the investigative guy that you.
Starting point is 00:51:44 Ziggy Marley. Was it? Zygmunt Palfey. Go ahead, Kim. Yeah. I got questions, but I gotta wait till all the FOTMs have seen the movie and I can not spoil the big stuff, but spoil a bit. So this is the Notorious Z-I-G. That's great.
Starting point is 00:52:00 Just thought of that. That's very good. No, just kidding. I just watched the documentary, The Notorious RBG. It's very good. I've seen that. Just thought of that. That's very good. No, just kidding. I just watched the documentary, The Notorious RBG. It's very good. I've seen that. The Notorious Zig. Yeah. Ziggy, Ziggy, Ziggy.
Starting point is 00:52:12 Did we mention Mike Zigomanus? He should do Ziggy, Ziggy, Ziggy. Yeah. He should do that. Did we mention Mike Zigomanus? We did it. Okay, he's a morning show host on Fan 590 right now. Ziggy Palfy.
Starting point is 00:52:22 There you go. Yeah. Again, this is Zigman Palfy. No, this is Ziggy Marley and the Melody Makers. Tomorrow People. This is a feel-good jam. I love this song. It puts me in a good mood. Not that I was in a bad mood.
Starting point is 00:52:35 From 1988, the album Conscious Party. This was actually Ziggy Marley and the Melody Makers' third album. If you could believe it. He was only just over an eyelash over 20 when he recorded this. This song, Tomorrow People, went to number 39 on the Billboard Hot 100.
Starting point is 00:52:52 Interestingly, went to number 16 on the mainstream rock charts. I'm not sure this is... I heard this song for the first time on CFNY. Yeah. Okay, so it's sort of a crossroad. Well, maybe it was actually produced by Chris Franz and Tina Weymouth
Starting point is 00:53:07 of The Talking Heads. Wow, that does kind of sound like a Talking Heads-y now that I'm listening. Yeah, and a special guest on that album. Same as it ever was. Also at House of Pain jam, same as it ever was. Was that?
Starting point is 00:53:20 That was on the less successful follow-up. Still successful. What was the follow-up to... Who's the Man? Okay. But it was not very successful. I'm actually surprised. I think it was a fraction of the sales of the first album.
Starting point is 00:53:33 I'm surprised they didn't have a longer career, to be honest. They're still going. Well, you know, Everlast had a pretty good... But more hits. Some of them are listening to you say this. Well, Whitey Ford Sings the Blues sold a lot of records, too. Yeah, same. I had my biggest car crash with my buddy Mark with that in the CD player. Oh, you say this. Well, Whitey Force Sings the Blues sold a lot of records too. Yeah, same. I had my biggest car crash
Starting point is 00:53:46 with my buddy Mark with that in the CD player. Oh, you deserve it. And. Yeah. You know who else guessed? I've not thought of that song. Whitey Force Sings the Blues
Starting point is 00:53:57 is a good album, man. It's a good, fine effort. Nothing to do with it. Do you remember Black Jesus? Do you remember that? That was like a Tom Waits song. Yeah, that was Everlasting. And he had that hurt condition.
Starting point is 00:54:08 Anyway, getting back to Ziggy Marley, you know who else guested on this album? Keith Richards. Oh, wow. I did not know that. Played on a song called Lee and Molly. Lee is maybe Lee Scratch Perry or something. Maybe, he passed away.
Starting point is 00:54:21 Okay, this is just kind of rude. In 2009, Tomorrow People was voted the 85th greatest one-hit wonder of the 80s by VH1. Is Ziggy Marley a one-hit wonder? In this continent? Yes.
Starting point is 00:54:37 You think so? Because the Arthur theme doesn't count. I guess so. Do you guys know? Maybe your kid was too... I know your kid would be perfect for that Arthur show. Oh, you're talking about Arthur like the.
Starting point is 00:54:47 The aardvark. The aardvark. Yeah. Not Arthur 2 on the rocks. The themed Arthur, which is, hey, got a wonderful kind of day. We go live and laugh and play. That is interesting. Eagle Eye Cherry was in Arthur 2 on the rocks.
Starting point is 00:54:58 Oh, my God. Oh, my God. I can't believe his real name is Eagle Eye. That's the takeaway today. Eagle Eye is his real name. So, Mike, as you know, I like to do callbacks to past episodes. Do you remember
Starting point is 00:55:09 I think Stu and I were back here in the backyard or maybe this was still in the Zoom era. We were talking that was the 25th anniversary of another roadside attraction 1995. Yeah. Big weekend where we did that on the Saturday. Was Farbsie there? DJ Farbszy was there
Starting point is 00:55:25 The Notorious What do you call Ryan? I forget what his name is Big Rybowski was there Jacob Masell was there But anyway, Tragically Hip First day, do you remember The band who played right before them?
Starting point is 00:55:42 Ziggy Marley and the Melody Wow There you go, and Mike actually I was going to send this to you This is not really a mind blow but just for fun band who played right before them. Ziggy Marley and the Melody. Wow. There you go. And Mike, actually, I was going to send this to you. This is not really a mind blow, but just for fun. I don't know if you want to load this up. Is this song known, Set Your Piggies Free? From Sesame Street.
Starting point is 00:55:56 What era? Let me see. Yeah, I do. So this was a song, and I guess I don't know if he did a children's album, but there's a video of Ziggy Marley. We're hearing it right here. something unexpected Those little piggies on your feet, they love to wiggle free
Starting point is 00:56:28 I don't know this one. Do we know this song? I don't. Anyway, I have no idea, but I sort of just like the cold mechanical description on Wikipedia. The song, it said Ziggy Marley performed in an episode of Sesame Street playing his well-known song,
Starting point is 00:56:45 Set Your Piggies Free. I thought it was a one-air wonder, but anyway, I guess. The song Set Your Piggies Free, which encourages children to take off their shoes and socks and to explore nature with bare feet. The video involves many celebrities with their children singing along. So I looked this up
Starting point is 00:57:01 on YouTube, and sure enough, there in the video, Ziggy Marley on Sesame Street, some of the celebrities included Brendan Fraser, Cameron Diaz, Paul Redd, Ricky Gervais. Wow, these are big A-listers. And sister of Donnie Darko saw Maggie
Starting point is 00:57:17 Gyllenhaal. Who's fantastic. Also known as Gyllenhaal. Gyllenhaal. She's fantastic in the deuce. Yeah. It seemed like this is a big deal based on the Wikipedia. So I have no clue what this is.
Starting point is 00:57:28 This is my, Monica, I always tell my kids I didn't know this song but to go barefoot outside. And Monica thinks it's a terrible idea because she thinks
Starting point is 00:57:38 that they're going to end up with glass and nails in their feet. I was going to say for a guy who like urinates in his backyard hopefully they're not setting their piggies free in the back corner. You're talking about the student.
Starting point is 00:57:49 Well, you know. Come on, that's in the bush. Let's not talk about that. Ziggy Marley. You didn't even say it. Bob Marley's kid. Oh, that's Bob Marley's son. One of many.
Starting point is 00:57:59 One of many. Do we have a count on how many children came from Bob? No, but actually I did count how many children Ziggy Murley has. He has six. Oh, he's an amateur. Six kids. Come on. You know, it's not raining now, but I have the Ridley Funeral Home.
Starting point is 00:58:14 You see that umbrella right there? Is it near a heater? Do you want me to get it? I mean. Can we burn it? Brad Jones from Ridley Funeral Home has six kids. Oh, wow. Is he a rabbi by any chance?
Starting point is 00:58:25 No, he's definitely not a rabbi. He's an undertaker. I don't know what the proper term is. Oh, yes. Yokozuna. Are you ready? I think we're going to modernize a bit here. Yeah, sure.
Starting point is 00:58:38 Ready for Stu Stones? Cam likes the modern gems. Yeah, I like modern rock. Whoa. Definitely not Eddie Van Halen. jams yeah i like modern modern rock whoa definitely not eddie van halen whoa Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa What you call an icon living?

All your verses sound like dirty dishes. I'm about to clean them in the kitchen. And we making money by the minute. I'm about to do it way different.
Starting point is 00:59:30 I am just an icon living. I am just an icon living. I am just an icon living. I am just an icon living. I am just an icon living. I am not a Mayan, I'm a Manish. Who is this? Do you know this one? Uh, no. I didn't know it either. Is this Lil Romeo? Who is this? Do you know this song? I know.
Starting point is 00:59:46 I didn't know it either. Is this Lil Romeo? This is the son of the Fresh Prince. This is Jaden Smith, Will Smith's son. Oh, you could have kicked out some Willow. I could have kicked out Willow. I went with Jaden. The song's called Icon.
Starting point is 01:00:03 If you haven't seen this music video, it's worth checking out. It definitely shows you what a colorful personality this kid has. But Jaden Smith has become quite a successful rapper on the alternative rap scene in the last five years.
Starting point is 01:00:18 My daughter Michelle met him once. Where? Where? He was filming in, do you know the Baby Point neighborhood of Toronto? Yes. Yeah, sure. He was filming in, do you know the Baby Point neighborhood of Toronto? Yes.
Starting point is 01:00:27 Yeah, sure. He was filming a movie there. He was on that show The Get Down, which filmed in Toronto. So that might be what he was filming. I'm not sure.
Starting point is 01:00:34 It was a movie. And my daughter, I know this will get back to you in a minute or two, but my daughter met this gentleman, Jaden, who was in the movie. And then Will was visiting
Starting point is 01:00:44 his son in Toronto and then my daughter got to meet and take a photo with Will Smith. Wow. Like she was just walking by? Well, no. Her friend lived on the street and they knew they were filming so they were camped out enjoying and then Will and Jaden came over to say hi and take photos. Love it. Here's something
Starting point is 01:01:00 interesting. Jaden Smith born July 8th, 1998. How do you feel? How old do we feel? Yeah. I actually have an artist who's younger than this coming up. Oh, awesome. So this is a little tease.
Starting point is 01:01:14 You want some facts about Jaden Smith? Hell yeah. He has been in a couple movies. The Pursuit of Happiness with his father. Shout out to Moe Burke. He was in The Day the Earth Stood Still. He was in The Karate Kid. Oh, right.
Starting point is 01:01:30 He was in a show called After Earth. He was on The Get Down on Netflix. I don't think that's the movie he filmed here. Okay. He made his debut as a musician on the big stage alongside Canadian Justin Bieber on the song Never Say Never, where he rapped on the song Never Say Never, which was also the title track of a Justin Bieber documentary that I do recommend watching. It's a really great movie, to be honest with you. Justin Bieber, Never Say Never.
Starting point is 01:01:58 I'm saying it right now. I saw it. I saw it. I saw it. I saw it. It's fantastic. Did you like it? Yeah, it was fine.
Starting point is 01:02:04 It was fine. It was a good doc. Yeah, it was fine. It was fine. It was a good doc. Yeah, it was good. It wasn't crap. He was emancipated when he was 15 years old for some reason and lives in a $4 million home now. But usually you only do that when your parents are assholes, right? You're talking about James Smith. Well, I'm sure there's something going on.
Starting point is 01:02:23 Who knows? Polyamorous. He's an avid conspiracy theorist online. So he talks about chemtrails and whatnot. He's a vegetarian, so that's good. And in November 2018, he announced that he was in a romantic relationship with rapper Tyler, the Creator. Is that right?
Starting point is 01:02:41 Yeah. I had no idea. So I don't know. How old's Tyler? Like he'd be in no idea. So I don't know. How old's Tyler? Like he'd be in his 30s? I don't think so. I would imagine. He's probably in his 20s.
Starting point is 01:02:52 Want me to look that up? I think the movie that was being filmed is called Life in a Year. Okay. Life in a Year. And it's actually not released yet. It's not released yet. But Life in a Year is the movie I believe. Tyler, the creator. That's right.
Starting point is 01:03:06 Okay, speaking of Moe Berg. Sure. This is the two-year anniversary of his visit to my home. Okay. So shout out to Moe. Was Brad Barker after? Yeah, quite a bit after, yeah. Okay.
Starting point is 01:03:21 But Moe was quite, Brad's great too, but Moe was quite the sweetheart. They're all great. Sammyohn to the building another great CanCon rock star he heard Moe get in the praise he said what about me do you like the try to re-ash the low feud
Starting point is 01:03:39 no don't do that but there's no feud they support each other in fact Ron Hawkins opened for Watchmen recently here. Sure did. All right, that was a good choice because that's a big name that Will Smith is a big fucking deal. Before he was an actor, he was a big fucking deal.
Starting point is 01:03:58 Speaking of rap tracks, he was all over the rap tracks. I think I could beat Mike Tyson. There's a nightmare on my street. Yep, those are the three big ones. Summertime. Those are Mike Tyson. There's a nightmare on my street. Yep. Those are the three big ones. Summertime. Those are the three. Yeah, we heard summertime.
Starting point is 01:04:08 We kicked that out. Boom, boom, shake, shake the room. Getting jiggy with it. Wild, wild west. The guy's got hits. Yeah. Yeah, the man can write a hit. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:04:16 Well, I don't think he wrote them, but he's got hits. No? I'm pretty sure Nas or Jay-Z wrote getting jiggy with it. I had no idea. All right, so we've done great so far. You didn't know that for real? I honestly did not know that, no. But I never really thought about it.
Starting point is 01:04:29 But the first five jams we've heard so far. Very dismissive. It's interesting. No Canadians, so I feel like rectifying that by kicking out a CanCon jam. You guys ready? Rectify. That would be a Bachman. Oh, yeah.
Starting point is 01:04:47 Stu scoops it up. This is a hit in America too, right? Monster Smash. Everywhere. Cam says yes. I'm going to Google that. Yes. This is a big hit all over the world.
Starting point is 01:05:02 Yeah. It better be. Yeah. Sounds like Edwin. Love it. I also think this might be one of the biggest charting Canadian songs of all time anywhere. Sort of like Daniel Powder. Yes.
Starting point is 01:05:19 One in one. 21, yeah. That's sound like Edwin. Yeah. I got a correct cam right off the bat. Oh. I love it when you correct Cam. The song peaked at number 14 on the U.S. charts. That's a hit.
Starting point is 01:05:55 That's a huge hit. That's a hit. I mean, that's not the highest charting Canadian song ever. No, that's... I think Bryan Adams would have something to say about that. Bryan Adams. Celine Dion, Justin Bieber, Drake, a lot of people. Shania Twain.
Starting point is 01:06:04 The Weeknd. Leaf Crush Adams. Even Nelly Furtado wants to talk to you, okay? I'm just, okay. Okay, I stand corrected on the biggest Canadian song of all time. Speaking of offspring jams, I think the Guess Who are online too. They want to talk about American Woman over here. So, who is, this is Tal Bachman.
Starting point is 01:06:23 Tal Bachman. He's a clear one-hit wonder. Yes. We all agree. He had like other singles in Canada, but never in the United States, no. And nothing that like hit my radar. Number 31 song. A song that went to number 20 at one point.
Starting point is 01:06:37 So his dad is like Sass Jordan's husband, right? I went to see Neil Young once at the Air Canada Centre and Randy Bachman showed up and did a jam. That was cool. A couple of Winnipeg boys. So this is, of course, the father is Randy Bachman from the Guess Who? I was going to say
Starting point is 01:06:58 Sammy Cohn's in the chat room. Winnipeg. Complete accident. I had no idea he'd show up for this I also want to shout out I listen to a lot of CBC radio and I just want to say I love Vinyl Tap I love Randy Bachman's radio show
Starting point is 01:07:13 I don't know if that's a polarizing view or whatever he picks up his guitar, he strums his notes he tells you some origin story about some song and they play it it's really what I'm looking for he's a curator and a guide and he's got the chops. Like he's got the knowledge.
Starting point is 01:07:28 He was there. I was going to say like, he's seen everything. Yeah, for sure. So, and also I called him Randy Bachman from the Guess Who. I can't forget.
Starting point is 01:07:38 He had a bunch of big hits with Bachman, Turner Overdrive. Taking care of business. Here it goes. Hold on. Together. Dedicated to Kareem. He's so...
Starting point is 01:07:51 Number one song in Canadian history. You should pull... What a fucking dumb thing to say. Seriously, you should shut this fucking program down. Check the stream count. Oh, you don't have Spotify. Let's call Ivan PR. Let's get a number on there.
Starting point is 01:08:14 Do you want me? All right. Well, it's not going to rain tonight. It's a beautiful night. It is gorgeous. It's warm. I'm not wearing a jacket. It's fantastic. Three rain tonight It's a beautiful night It's warm It's fantastic Three weeks on Zoom after this Enjoy the fresh air
Starting point is 01:08:30 I was going to say Remember when the song came out And there was the Blur song She's So High She's so high I want to sunbathe for her She's so high So this is
Starting point is 01:08:42 Yeah this is a big jam And the reason I brought up Daniel Powder is because, I don't think he's got a famous parent or whatever, but Daniel Powder. Also, like kind of a Canadian Western song that was like fucking heat. But I think Powder hit number one. Yes. I think Powder's a bigger song, a real powder keg of a song.
Starting point is 01:09:01 You had a bad day. And I know the Chipmunks covered it. Cause at that time, James was into the chipmunk movies. So you clearly made it. Oh, James. I love James.
Starting point is 01:09:12 Where's James right now? What's Tal Bachman doing right now? Like, like right now, do you suppose? I think he's in the chat room here. Hold on here. So, uh,
Starting point is 01:09:19 he's living in Victoria, I believe. And he's, uh, what's he doing this second though? Like, what do you think? He's like warming up some Palma Pasta?
Starting point is 01:09:26 Well, there's three hours behind us, so it's like 6-11. Could be watching the Donald Trump town hall on right now. Okay, straight up. I was going to say, like, counter-programming. Straight up. If you weren't here, would you be watching the Donald Trump? I'm taping it. Yeah, probably.
Starting point is 01:09:38 And Joe Biden town hall also on competing networks. I heard a bit about this. Trump will probably win the ratings, and he'll brag about it tomorrow. Ratings were huge. Before Twitter crashed on me, I was getting the vibe that some people were planning to have their station on NBC
Starting point is 01:09:54 and then just when it started, they'd switch over and they said, who measures this shit down there? Like Nielsen? I guess Nielsen or whatever can see when a bunch of massive people switch over or something. They can measure that.
Starting point is 01:10:09 This is like the Monday Night Wars all over again. Like Raw and SmackDown. What's WCW's do? Of what? Nitro. Yeah, Nitro. Raw and Nitro. Raw versus Nitro.
Starting point is 01:10:23 The Monday Night Wars. Monday Night Wars. Cam, how do you Raw Nitro. Yeah. Raw versus Nitro, the Monday Night Wars. Monday Night Wars. Cam, how do you feel about continuing the CanCon streak? Do you want to kick out of CanCon? I do. And I know you just heard this song with 1236, but this is a big jam. This is the first one I've... This one I actually was able to talk to my daughter about.
Starting point is 01:10:41 Like, she's a big fan of this song. So it was fun chatting with her about it. Bringing you two together is beautiful. Brings a tear to my daughter about like she's a big fan of this song so it's fun chatting with her about it bringing you two together it's beautiful brings a tear to my eye i like it it's good when you have overlap with your teenage daughter you didn't listen to the episode of tron This is somebody's father? Somebody's... Mike, we should just say nothing. Although he has a computer. I don't know what this is. He's pulling out his smartphone. He's got Shazam on there.
Starting point is 01:11:16 I thought it was Mac Miller at first. But it's not Mac Miller. I will say, amazingly, the family connection not mentioned on the wikipedia page of this artist which is oh this is tom hanks's kid where did you learn about yeah no no no no because he's a rapper i said it's can con remember it's can't oh this is can con this is your song or his song this is my my song. This is Cam's song. But where did you learn about the family connection? I'm on the Toronto Mike, sorry, the Toronto Mike podcast.

Malaysia and Mexico. It's a 2020 jam, right? Yeah, it was interesting though when I was talking to my daughter Katie about this, she said, oh, that's an old song. Yeah, but my nephew says that about songs that were out two weeks ago. I know, it's interesting.
Starting point is 01:12:39 Like, we think it's like, oh, Weezer. Right, like I just discovered low-key fuck 2020. No, I'll play a song that came out two weeks ago and he's like, oh, that's old. They move so fast, these kids these days. Right. Yeah, so this song samples, so it's officially built a pow-fu

Starting point is 01:13:08 Imagine you used to pronounce Bow-it-to-ba like B-what-to-bow-ee. Bow-it-to-ba-ba. Blah-blah-blah. Want me to see the word This is for the questions that don't got any answers.
Starting point is 01:13:17 Who's the parents? Yeah. We'll come to that in a second. Jeez. Is it Uncle Bobby? I like tormenting him. I have the...
Starting point is 01:13:24 Because I'm actually going to play the kid of the actual offspring at some point. The real kid. Go ahead. Is he good? I don't know. Blah, blah, blah.
Starting point is 01:13:34 Paufu, the artist, feature artist, he was actually scared that this song was going to get taken off Spotify because he wasn't sure if the sample was clear.
Starting point is 01:13:43 He actually said this on Twitter, twitter.com or perhaps. Which was down half the day. Is it back? We're past that. That was a long time ago. That's so old. So he said in April 2016, he had not put on Spotify because he was scared he would get in trouble from the sample.
Starting point is 01:14:10 He used it, but he would upload it anyway and told his followers to give him a week and a half to get it done like this is very like grassroots like this uh how this happened this song on on spotify and on youtube just like millions and millions and millions of views so this is like a worldwide smash you know what the song reminds you of you remember the song uh the streets dry your eyes dry your eyes mate yeah like very similar style. Isn't the guy from Coldplay, Chris Martin, isn't there a version of Dry Your Eyes, mate, with the guy from Chris Martin doing that refrain? Oh, like on the Brit Awards or something?
Starting point is 01:14:38 Isn't he doing the Dry Your Eyes, mate? I mean, that sounds right. I had a version in my playlist of that song with Chris Martin. Do you know who else his name is Chris Martin you're going to find out later on spoiler
Starting point is 01:14:48 holy shit there's a baseball player Chris Martin by the way here's a fun fact we just talked about Will Smith who's the father
Starting point is 01:14:56 we'll get to that he's really dragging this one out better be good especially like Eugene Levy's kid or something we know who that is
Starting point is 01:15:04 is it R. Don Cherry is that is. Is it our Don Cherry? Is that the joke? I was going to say, do you ever watch like a Dateline episode to catch a predator? I've heard of it. It's like, well, come to that. Chris Hansen? Chris Hansen, yeah. Why don't you take a seat?
Starting point is 01:15:18 But he always says, oh, we'll get to that in a second. I made some lemonade. Or like sweet tea. Cookies. What's the pedophile voice from Family Guy? Never seen it. Anyway, okay. Two less.
Starting point is 01:15:34 One more fun fact. Then you're going to tell us who the fucking parents are? Then we'll do the big reveal. Okay, are you guys watching? Is it Rafi? Yeah. Is it? No.
Starting point is 01:15:43 Oh, I got excited. Are you guys watching any of the National League Championship Series? No. I am. You are? Yeah, there's a rather good first inning by the Los Angeles Dodgers. I was going to say, very interestingly, because we mentioned this artist earlier, both the Atlanta Braves and the Los Angeles Dodgers have a player named Will Smith.
Starting point is 01:16:04 Right. So the Dodgers is a catcher and the Braves is a pitcher. Anyway, like this could be funny because I don't think Stu's even going to know the band that the father was in. Probably not. That's why this is going to be so disappointing. Okay, give us a clue. Okay, here's a clue. The band's called Faber Drive.
Starting point is 01:16:21 So, okay, I feel, I feel, no, listen, I with stew i was i was here i was sitting in the seat when mark weisblatt sat where uh stew stone is right now lunch back and he talked about favor drive and i was like you're like what i'm like who i had the same reaction a couple of weeks ago what's your movie on kirby drive not quite so faber drive was like a pop punk band signed by nickelback on their label i had had a few sort of mild can con hits um anyway one of the the guy the namesake of the band faber uh shout out not to confuse with uh brian faberman anyway his son is Paufu and had this like massive worldwide smash.
Starting point is 01:17:08 His dad was in a pop-punk band. This is like the drowning out the music like at the Oscars. What is this? This is some Faber Drive. This is Faber Drive. Okay. So Stu and I can hear what we're talking about.
Starting point is 01:17:28 See, I would have run the other direction. Like, it's just weak sauce. He's just like a defeated, like... I just think like that is just like, I don't even know what to say. He's so sad. I am livid. I think that it definitely counts because this is a band with a following.
Starting point is 01:17:42 It definitely counts. It's just like, I mean, this guy searched underneath the chair to see if he won the car. Have you guys ever watched the June Awards? Yeah, of course. Best New Artist at the 2011 June Awards. Faber Drive. How old is his son?
Starting point is 01:18:00 20. How does a guy who had Best New Artist a few years ago have a 20-year-old son? Billy Joe Armstrong has a son who's like 20-something years old now. Yeah, but Billy Joe Armstrong isn't the Best New Artist from a few years ago. How old is the Faber-Dreyfus guy? Spike from Degrassi. How old is this guy?
Starting point is 01:18:18 Stu's right. Stu's correct. How can this guy look young? Is it his stepson? I'm starting to question Cam here. Look it up. Just chill. What's his name?
Starting point is 01:18:32 I'm getting upset. What's the name of this band? Faber Drive. I'm on the fucking Wikipedia page right now. His son is Pofu. That's my coffee for your head. We have the same source for this data, which is Mark Weisblatt, and we trust Weisblatt.
Starting point is 01:18:48 Is Dave Faber? Dave Faber. What the hell's the problem here? But he doesn't even have his own Wikipedia page. That's not relevant. I feel like Stu is way more famous than David. Okay, this guy's 45 years old, so it does check out. But the fact that they were late bloomers.
Starting point is 01:19:01 Oh, yeah. Yeah, born in 75. That's the best new artist. When did you say it that you know? Like 2011-ish. Okay, so he 75. He's the best new artist. When did you say it that you know? Like 2011-ish. Okay, so he was 38 years old when he won that. Well, it's like Trouble Charger showed up, like Drove Down from Seuss. Like, they were a bit older when they, you know, they were hitting the charts.
Starting point is 01:19:14 Late bloomer. Late bloomer. It's okay. I like that. In bloom. I just, I'm just really itching to kick out Stu's third jam, because I think it might result in another sing-along. I'm not sure.
Starting point is 01:19:25 I didn't think that would be so contentious. It's contentious because we don't know Favorite Drive. Okay. But I do now, and I like them. You do? Because I find it... Oh, there you go. Do you like Paufu?
Starting point is 01:19:34 I thought it was nice. Paufu, greater than Favorite Drive. I thought that my guesses of who it could be were, like, Chet Hanks. Like, Tom Hanks could... Yeah, yeah. But Tom Hanks is not a singer, so that wouldn't count. Yeah, that would not count.
Starting point is 01:19:47 This counts. This is not a legal pick. This counts. This counts. No illegal picks. I would argue Faber Drive might have had more success than Don Cherry. Like the musician. Well, Don Cherry, our Don Cherry also had a single. Yeah, I know.
Starting point is 01:20:04 He can score. Number four, Bobby, let's go. Hockey man Yeah, I know. He can score. Number four, Bobby, let's go. Hockey man is what I am. Let's go. Let's go. All right. I'm just going to let this. This is an offspring super jam.
Starting point is 01:20:17 Right. This is an offspring super group. Stu Stone for the win Shout out to Cam Brio I know there's pain Why do you lock yourself up in these chains? No one can change your life except for you. Don't ever let anyone step all over you. Just open your heart and your mouth.
Starting point is 01:20:59 Is it really fair to feel This way inside Some day somebody's gonna Turn around and say goodbye Until then baby Are you gonna turn around And cry Don't you know Don't you know
Starting point is 01:21:18 Things will change Things will go your way If you hold on For one more day If you hold on for one more day. Remember, Stu is the only one who can sing in this. I was going to say, not quite every rose has a song. Hold on for one more day. Okay, Stu, I have some fun facts for you.
Starting point is 01:21:41 Did you know? No, just kidding. Let's hear it. Wilson Phillips, hold the Fuck On, released February 27, 1990, is the lead singer from their debut studio album titled Wilson Phillips. Wow. This didn't fare quite as well as Fader Drive.
Starting point is 01:21:59 Faber. Faber. It didn't do quite as well as Tal Backman, but it did top the U.S. Billboard chart in 1990 and was the most successful single of the year in the United States. The song won the Billboard Music Award for Hot 100 Single of the Year and the Grammy for Song of the Year in 1991. It was all over much music that year.
Starting point is 01:22:21 You couldn't miss it. I take that back. It did not win the Grammy. It lost to From a Distance by Bette Midler, but it was nominated. Here's a really Mark Grace type of stat about this. Here's a real Mark Grace kind of stat about this.
Starting point is 01:22:34 Mark Grace has the most hits of the 1990s of any player. Not in the Hall of Fame. Are you serious? He's not in the Hall of Fame. No, Daddy has the most hits. Most hits of the 90s. That is a surprise. Mark Grace. Mark Grace.
Starting point is 01:22:46 That is a surprise. Wilson Phillips was the Song of the Year in 1990 and did not make the decade chart. So it's very similar. What's the decade chart? Like the best songs of the 90s chart. But how many songs was that chart? Was it 10? Well, if there's 10 years and if this this song was Song of the Year in 91,
Starting point is 01:23:06 whatever I said it was, then it should be in that chart. Should it not? Well, Wilson Phillips was certainly upset about it, so I have some quotes about it. So tell us the, I mean, we all know we're smart, savvy people, but tell us the. Okay, well, you got Carney Wilson and Wendy Wilson teaming up with Chyna Phillips.
Starting point is 01:23:24 Supergroup, the daughters, the Wilson sisters, of course, were daughters of Brian Wilson of Bare Naked Ladies fame. And China Phillips is the daughter of John and Michelle Phillips, of course, of the mamas and papas. And I'm thinking of my friend Peter Gross who loves California Dream and it brings him back to when he delivered papers. Definitely not a one-hit wonder. They had a couple of other smashes. Do you guys know what? I remember a follow-up hit. You got my picks.
Starting point is 01:23:55 Release Me was another one of their songs. Hold On, You're In Love. And for those of you who are not Madonna Vogue fans, you'll be happy to know that this song, when it reached number one, it bumped Madonna's Vogue off the top of the charts. Wow. Hold on. Wow.
Starting point is 01:24:14 So there you have it. Hold on. Wilson Phillips. Hold on. They've reunited several times, so, you know. That is a super, like you said, that's an offspring super group. Yes, absolutely. That's amazing.
Starting point is 01:24:27 Not since Nelson have we seen such an offspring success. I would say like when Cody Rhodes teamed with Ted DiBiase Jr., that was the Wilson Phillips comparison. They teamed up together.
Starting point is 01:24:39 Okay. Cody Rhodes, see Cody Rhodes I know. So Cody and Ted DiBiase Jr. and Randy Orton were in a stable together at one point. That's like Wilson Phillips. Oh, it's like the second generation.
Starting point is 01:24:48 Yeah, that's good. That's like Wilson Phillips. I like that. So there you go. Wilson Phillips got played. Well, you can't go wrong with Wilson Phillips. I'm glad we got to hear a Wilson Phillips game. We got some chatter coming from the Periscope.
Starting point is 01:24:59 What are they saying before I kick out my jam? They're probably losing their minds. They're glad to hear that song. They were talking about that young man that Cam played is an Ottawa native. Biba Doobie, the name of that song,
Starting point is 01:25:10 Pow Food. Biba Doobie. Oh. Biba Doobie is how they're pronouncing it. Bawa to Bawa. Asking, is Rockwell going to get played?
Starting point is 01:25:17 Does he qualify? No, because his dad wasn't a musician though. Well, Barry Gordy. But he's not a musician. He's a...
Starting point is 01:25:24 I mean, I wouldn't have frowned. I would have... I would have. He's a... I mean, I wouldn't have frowned. I would have... I would have... If Cam would have played that, I wouldn't have been upset. I would have shit all over it. Literally. Billy Joe's son is canceled for some reason.
Starting point is 01:25:36 I don't know anything about that. Oh, that's disappointing. Colin Hanks was the rapper. I said Chet Hanks, so I guess... Colin Hanks. But Colin Hanks is the actor. He's an actor, so Chet is the rapper. Chet is the rapper. Right. Okay. Chet's the ridiculous... Or Chet Lemon. Chet Hanks, so I guess Colin Hanks. But Colin Hanks is the actor. He's an actor, so Chet is the rapper. Chet is the rapper. Right.
Starting point is 01:25:47 Chet Lemon. Chet Lemon, right, from the Detroit Tigers. People were happy that Wilson Phillips was played, hoping the song would make the cut. Okay, good. Shout out to the movie Bridesmaids. And Tim says he's going to be watching Faking a Murder when the show is done tonight.
Starting point is 01:26:02 Oh, that guy is a great FOTM. Big night for Tim. It's a good combo. Ian Service, everybody. Romephone.ca. Okay, let's kick out my third jam. Ah. Relax.
Starting point is 01:26:20 You know what? I just kind of learned that she was the daughter of somebody. If I can remember who it is without looking it up, that will be a good trick. Well, you got a few moments here before I spoil it for you. Come away with me. Ow! Bitsy sings this to you in the bathtub. Get away with me.
Starting point is 01:26:46 Get away from me. This is like the song that launched like Starbucks as like a distributor of music at one point. She sold like two million records at Starbucks. Yeah, like a checkout. Like for real. Yeah, I believe it. She made all her money at Starbucks. Like this album, she, you know,
Starting point is 01:27:04 this album came out when people would sell physical units of... Dying days of massive CDs. 27 million copies sold. Can you imagine selling physical copies, 27 million in 2020? No. That's two stone numbers right there. Again, Adele is the only artist that seems like sells CDs anymore. Maybe Taylor Swift.
Starting point is 01:27:29 Country band sells CDs. And stuff you buy at drugstores. Because they can't figure out the internet, Stu? I didn't say that. It's you. Florida Georgia line. Well, that explains Trump. So this is Nora Jones, right?
Starting point is 01:27:40 Okay, this is Nora Jones. So is it Popeye Jones' kid? Yes. Seth Jones and Nora Jones, children of Popeye Jones. Can we try to figure it out, Cam? Ch Nora Jones. Is it Popeye Jones' kid? Seth Jones and Nora Jones, children of Popeye Jones. Can we try to figure it out, Kim? Chipper Jones. I won't spoil it for you if you guys want to talk it out. Is the last name of the parent also Jones?
Starting point is 01:27:56 Or is this a stage name that she has taken on? I believe it's more that she didn't grow up with this man in her life. And she found out maybe as an adult. I'm forgetting who it is. It's not Quincy Jones. No. No. She's on Community and...
Starting point is 01:28:12 She's an actor or something. Yeah, she's on Community and... Not Community, I'm sorry. Office and Parks and Rec. Okay, give up. It's not Cat Stevens, is it? That's a very good guess. It's someone like that.
Starting point is 01:28:25 It's not Cat Stevens? No, it's not Cat Stevens, is it? That's a very good guess. It's someone like that. It's not Cat Stevens? No, it's not Cat Stevens, who is now Yusuf Islam, I believe is how he's referred to now. Is it Mos Def? Cat Williams. These are all good guesses. The gentleman that you're thinking of, and remember, she was estranged from him, but her father is Ravi Shankar. Ravi Shankar. What's your favorite Ravi Shankar hit? I just know he was... The one with the Shankar. Ravi Shankar. That's right. Wow. What's your favorite Ravi Shankar hit?
Starting point is 01:28:48 I just know he was. The one with the sitar. I know him from The Simpsons. Right, yeah. The sitar. Yeah. Was it for when they went, the quickie mark? I don't want to confuse my South Asian stereotypes from The Simpsons.
Starting point is 01:29:00 He was a FOB. A who's involved. He was a FOB, a friend of the Beatles. Oh, yeah, of course. He was like their sort of. Well, that's George Harrison when he had the Yoshi.ons. He was a F.O.B. A friend of the Beatles. Oh, yeah, of course. He was like their... Well, that's George Harrison when he had the... Spiritual.
Starting point is 01:29:09 The opium king. Right. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. Every Beatle that was alive, and of course, this does not include John Lennon, but they all made cameos on the Simpsons.
Starting point is 01:29:18 What year is that from? Is that like 2001? Oh, good question. Yeah, let me tell you. I'm going to guess guess 99 i like that guess uh the correct answer hold on here 2001 favor drive yeah favorite 2002 early 2002 i feel like that album was one of those quote-unquote cleaned up at the grammys like her just like holding all the that that was like that was the catnip for the her, just like holding all the little Grammys. That was a catnip
Starting point is 01:29:46 for the Grammy people. And even hearing it now though, I got to say, it was, you know, it's kind of, I would, slower than I would listen to
Starting point is 01:29:53 at that time, but that song was so beautiful. Good Starbucks music. Yeah. It was good. I was going to say, if you did a Venn diagram around that time,
Starting point is 01:30:00 like Nora Jones and then, you know, for the Canadians, Diana Krall. You know, there'd probably be overlap a lot of people brother Neil knew by the way Ravi Shankar yeah married to yeah good
Starting point is 01:30:10 for him uh married to uh Elvis Costello that's right so hopefully he's doing okay he's had a health scares Elvis Costello yeah cancer so hope he's doing okay yeah okay I wouldn't joke about that Stu I wouldn't joke about that, Stu. I wouldn't joke about that. Okay. Fourth jam for Cam. I need to listen to this. Did this be? Yeah, I thought we didn't do duplicates. No, we don't do duplicate songs. Songs.
Starting point is 01:30:40 Okay, but our... I do duplicate artists. I feel like we should do artists. Anyway. No, I don't mind two songs. I thought it would be fun to let this go I have some good builds on Stu's notes about this
Starting point is 01:30:53 Wait is this also Wilson Phillips? Yeah Yes! Great lines brother I don't know this song do I? I thought Wilsonips might get handsome i thought this was divinals well i yeah it sounds very divinals bangles touch myself yeah oh yeah this song
Starting point is 01:31:15 kind of countryish a little bit yeah this like almost like invented new country. Actually, I take that. That's ridiculous. That's the second dumbest thing you've said tonight. I have some really bad takes tonight. These hot takes are freezing cold tonight. So this is... Tim's takes are at least heating me up. So this is two of two tonight with Wilson Phillips.
Starting point is 01:31:42 You don't have to really. I was hoping Nelson. That was a Nelson track when I went. Tell me it is. I was hoping it's Nelson. See, I thought you knew right away it was Wilson Phillips. No, because this is like a lesser known of course it's Cam on brand picking a Wilson Phillips fifth single.
Starting point is 01:31:56 You know, lesser known, just number one hit in Canada back in 1990. It was a hit, Stu. It's not Hold On. That's a fucking smash. I didn't realize that this song went to number four in the US. There were three other songs that went to number one, including the Afro
Starting point is 01:32:11 Listen To. Yeah, the Afro Listen To. That's correct. So I've got all sorts of... I've got all sorts of fun facts about the members of Wilson. Okay, say them slowly. The one involves like Mackenzie Phillips and her relationship with... So maybe that's not fun. Yeah, I heard this. The one involves, like, Mackenzie Phillips and her relationship with, so maybe that's not fun.
Starting point is 01:32:27 Yeah, I heard this story. We'll leave that one out. What happened there? You haven't heard the allegations about incest? No. She had sex with her dad? Allegedly, well, she claims when she was 19, her and her father, Papa John Phillips,
Starting point is 01:32:44 had a consensual adulterous relationship that lasted for 10 years. Entanglement. 10 years? Yeah. Holy shit, that's so weird. Yeah, but some people sort of came out and said they don't think it's true,
Starting point is 01:32:59 like some of the other children. It's funny how she was in One Day at a Time with Van Halen's wife. Valerie Bertinelli. Right. This was her fan. Remember, this was sort of a pre-internet. Mackenzie Phillips was on The Oprah Show.
Starting point is 01:33:14 Oh, God, yeah. There were books. All over the place, yeah. Anyway, even though she was an alcoholic and a drug addict for a time, Chyna Phillips has had some stability. I didn't know that she's been married to William Baldwin since the mid-90s. was an alcoholic and a drug addict for a time china phillips uh has had some stability i i didn't know that she's been married to william baldwin since the mid 90s because she was in
Starting point is 01:33:30 melrose place oh china phillips was she had a major role in melrose place china phillips i feel like i should have known that yeah i watched melrose i'm not even ashamed of that okay this could be like rapid fire fun facts about Wilson Phillips. Where was it? Wasn't one of them on the Celebrity Apprentice? I'll get to that in a second. So let's go to 2012. You guys, you know, maybe Peter
Starting point is 01:33:55 Gross might have bought something from the group appeared on QVC to promote the songs Dedicated, a new studio album composed of covers of songs by both the Beach Boys and the Mamas and the Papas, exclusive to QVC. Wow. Only $19.99.
Starting point is 01:34:11 I bet you bought two. Yeah, Melissa Rivers was selling that. Yeah, tell me. Mike, the second box is still unopened. I know. Well, maybe when the Cat Scratch house arrives, the dedicated... Mike, that phone charger never worked.
Starting point is 01:34:26 If only I had checked if my phone was compatible. So shocking. Also in 2012, Carney Wilson appeared on do you guys remember the show Celebrity Wife Swap? Which I thought sounded like sort of like a... Did she swap with like Ric Flair? Woo! No, she
Starting point is 01:34:41 traded places with Tracy Gold. Yeah, from China. China was not on Melrose Place, according to Andy Pendy, by the way. What am I thinking of? Ask Andy Pendy who I'm thinking of. China Phillips was on Melrose Place. She can hear you. Yeah, but she'll hear me in 10 seconds.
Starting point is 01:34:57 Do you guys remember a song called 4-5 Seconds by Rihanna featuring Kanye West and Paul McCartney. Not only do I remember it, I really like it. And my daughter has it on her playlist today. Do you remember the backing vocals on that song? Please blow our minds. Wilson Phillips. Holy fuck.
Starting point is 01:35:16 Not even kidding. Not even kidding. China Phillips and Josie Bissett from Melrose Place look a lot alike, but they are not the same person. I feel great shame that I thought she was from Melrose Place look a lot alike, but they are not the same person. I feel great shame that I thought she was on Melrose Place. Also, I'm told that your Wendell Clark
Starting point is 01:35:30 pick was Drek. That was sloppy. Really? China Phillips was not on Melrose Place. Today I learned. Wow. You're today years old when you learned Sade was the name of the band as well. Final fun fact.
Starting point is 01:35:45 Guys, do you guys have a sweet tooth? Do you like the sweets? That placement went belly up, by the way. Well, that place you're talking about is Love Bites, not the Def Leppard song. Love Bites by Carney, a commercial production bakery and a company storefront in Sherwood, Oregon,
Starting point is 01:36:03 owned by Carney Wilson, her childhood friend, Tiffany Miller. Maybe it didn't go belly up. Because at one point she had a cupcake shop around the corner from my house in L.A. for many years. Right around the corner. I think she even shot a reality show about this cupcake business. Yeah, she's had like a few TV shows. Well, this one was in suburban Portland.
Starting point is 01:36:25 Yeah. This one, again, Love B, this one was in suburban Portland. Yeah. This one, again, Love Bites by Carney was the name. Democratic mayor. Very fine people. The store offered all sorts of sweet treats, including bite-sized cheesecakes, brownies, crumb cakes, cake bites, and a series of organic coffees, too, ethically sourced. Maybe they sell Nora Jones CDs.
Starting point is 01:36:45 It's probably unread. And then I was going to drop the fun fact about Mike Love and Kevin Love, but we sort of got to that off the top. So anyway, lots of stuff. Good reviews on Cam's Pick saying, I was hoping this song would make the cut. Excellent. She wasn't satisfied by Hold On.
Starting point is 01:37:02 She wanted more. Brother Neil says he's going to be re-watching Faking a Murderer this weekend and again on Halloween. Is that right? That's what he says. He likes it that much because there's so few movies I can watch three times. Tim of Rome underscore phone loved that Wilson Phillips jam and quote said, pump it up. Josie Bissette and Hollywood. Oh, and Tim comes in with the Hollywood sweet tooth.
Starting point is 01:37:30 Hollywood sweet tooth. Honeymoon's pretty good. By the way, like China Phillips on. No, Hollywood sweet. That's the platform my movie's on. Hollywood sweet. Yeah, we know. He made a funny joke about it.
Starting point is 01:37:40 Anyway, getting back to China Phillips. Like, did you just make that up on the top of your head? Like, where'd that come from? Josie Bissette was on Melrose Place. I was wrong about Melrose Place. I had short hair, right? She's right. Andy knows me so well that I actually transposed.
Starting point is 01:37:55 I think that's the right word. I'm trying to learn these words. That woman you're saying, Josie Bissette? Yes. With China Films. Stu's fucking cold. Why am I not cold? Because you're white. You're white.
Starting point is 01:38:09 Aren't you? Not according to the fine people on both sides. They would not agree with your statement. No comment. Let me get out those torches and heat it up. The tiki torch guys don't think that I am. Oh, I feel sad now. Come on. I don't see these differences. Okay. Are you ready for me to kick out?
Starting point is 01:38:26 Now, here's something very interesting before I kick out this jam. The producer of the song I'm going to play, the legal name of the producer whose song I'm about to play is Chris Martin. Wow. Oh, wow. I know you brought out Chris Martin's name before. The producer of this song's legal name is Chris Martin. Isn't he the guy from House Party? Kid and Play?
Starting point is 01:38:49 No. Isn't that Chris Martin? I don't know, but that's not who it is. What kind of Atlanta Braves? Don't Google it. Don't Google it. Atlanta Braves, they have a Will Smith and Chris Martin in their bullpen.
Starting point is 01:38:58 Well, that's unbelievable. All right, so Chris Martin produced this song. Oh. Oh. I mean, he just said the name of the producer right there. Yo, Nas, you ready? Ready when you are, pring. Chris Martin's in Kid and Play.
Starting point is 01:39:22 Oh, really? I didn't know that. It's like the clean version. Smoked finest beef. I can reveal safely that, Cam, you had originally... I did have a Nas track. You took it off for Fader Drive? I thought his dad was a bit obscure. Like, I feel like his dad...
Starting point is 01:40:18 You're saying that his dad is a bit obscure. We're talking about Nas here, by the way. No, not Nas. Instead, you played Pofu, whose dad really is obscure. Juno Award winning. Well, what if I told you that Nas' dad has played on over 50 albums, including 12 of his own? Does that change your opinion?
Starting point is 01:40:43 Did they chart? Do you want to look it up? Did they win Juno Awards? Don't forget to deliver the goods to the listening audience. Who are we hearing? This is Nas. Who's their parent? Who's the parent?
Starting point is 01:40:54 Nas is the son of Olu Dara Jones, an American guitarist, concert musician, studio musician, jazz musician, and singer. Session guy. No, he actually had his own records. Want me to look that up? But you do concur. You will admit,
Starting point is 01:41:18 Stu, this is not a known person. He could work. I don't think anyone in that chat knows this person. Anybody who's a Nas fan would know Because his father's been in a lot of his music videos and songs And I think it's known And he's got his own Wikipedia He's got a Wikipedia page unlike the other guy's father
Starting point is 01:41:33 Who didn't have one He didn't have one Let the record show Faber Drive has a page It's just not referenced on the Profu page No Dave Faber does not a page. It's just not referenced on the Pofu page. No. Dave Faber does not have his own page.
Starting point is 01:41:50 There's a photo of him. The band has a page, but Dave Faber does not have his own page. Stu Stone has his own page. He does. Either way, look at his discography. I could just keep scrolling.
Starting point is 01:42:03 Put on your masks. You just switched to the awards. Look at all these records. This is a real guy. 11 runs in the first inning. Have you ever seen Never? Never in postseason history. Where? Yesterday with the Dodgers. Anyway, Chris Martin, the producer of this
Starting point is 01:42:20 song, DJ Premier's real name is Chris Martin. And Play from Kid and Play. Maybe they're the same person. Premier says of this song, DJ Premier's real name, is Chris Martin. And Play from Kid and Play. Maybe they're the same person. Premier says of this track, this shit is crazy. The day I made this record, I was at my house in Long Island. I found this old record that I was going to throw away. It was a 10-inch record from a Lutheran church,
Starting point is 01:42:37 and it was pink with a black fish on it. And I was going to throw it in the garbage because it didn't look like it had anything on it. But something told me before you throw it away, put it on the turntable, see if you can find something on it. And I found the sample of Nas' Like and broke it into three parts, scratched it live to the drum beat that I already had with this little chirping birds. And from there, Nas' Like was born, man.
Starting point is 01:42:57 So don't judge a book by its cover. Don't judge a record by its cover either. Good advice. Otherwise, no one would listen to Pet Sounds, right? Of course, Nas is like, you know, he's done six songs with DJ Premier.
Starting point is 01:43:13 All of them are good. It's blah, blah, blah, blah, blah. Big hit song. I have a note on Twitter that's referencing something said earlier by Cam Gordon. Tobias Vaughn. Is he Wild Thing? What was Wild Thing. Tobias Vaughn. Is he Wild Thing? What was Wild Thing?
Starting point is 01:43:27 Tobias Vaughn. Tobias Vaughn says, my first ever Jays game at the Dome in 1989. I sat in right field right behind Chet Lemon. Whoa. Okay. Very good. John Cerutti, I think, picked him off second base after he got
Starting point is 01:43:45 John Cerruti who sadly of course yeah like that was shocking when he passed away have you heard the Rob Foulds
Starting point is 01:43:53 Foulds no the Rob Foulds episode Toronto Mike Rob Foulds was calling that last game of that Blue Jays season
Starting point is 01:43:58 with John Cerruti right and he told in great detail how that game went when John never showed up for work. And he talked about who knew what when and how they were informed.
Starting point is 01:44:08 And he had a heart attack and died in his sleep. Brutal. 44, I think he was. Which at the time, I've passed that age. No, I remember. What did he die of? Heart condition. Like some heart condition.
Starting point is 01:44:24 I remember he was one of the J's of that era that Chris Berman had a nickname for. He says, John, you pitch a beauty saruti. Oh, that's cool. Like Walt Chicken Fried Weiss. Hebsey borrowed a few of these, I think. Yeah, yeah. Is that true? Did he borrow from Berman?
Starting point is 01:44:40 No, he wouldn't say that. Yeah, his own stuff. He never told me that. His own stuff. Don't tell Hebsey I said that. That was a great choice, Stu. Thank you. Yeah, no, it's interesting
Starting point is 01:44:49 because you're educating as well. A lot of people don't know that. That's honestly my favorite hip-hop album of all time. Which one? Not the one that that song's from. Isn't that Illmatic? The Illmatic is the one.
Starting point is 01:45:01 The one you like is Illmatic. Yeah, okay. That ain't it. Is that Stillmatic? Is that where we're at with that? I think so. Yeah. Okay.
Starting point is 01:45:07 Are you ready for something a little different, but I think this will get the people on the dance floor. Are you ready? Why not? I'm happy you played her. Mike Wilner. Mike Wilner. Mike Wilner.
Starting point is 01:45:24 This song's a jam, man Oh yeah Yep Hey Hey Hands in the air like we don't care Cause we came to have so much fun now Got somebody here, I might get some now If you're not ready to go Can I get a help?
Starting point is 01:45:54 Cause we gonna go all night Till we see the sunlight La-na-di-da-di, we like to party Dancing with Molly Doing whatever we want This is our house, this is our room And we can't stop, and we won't stop Can't you see it's real on the night?
Starting point is 01:46:21 Can't you see it's real about the night? We can't stop, says we don't know the night we can't stop and we won't stop she's the artist formerly
Starting point is 01:46:30 known as Hannah Montana Miley Cyrus how many years are we going back with this
Starting point is 01:46:38 is this like 2011 2012 you ask the questions there was no bigger star when this song came out than Miley Cyrus this was the back to back
Starting point is 01:46:50 wrecking balls after this back to back and the video was great it was a smash she was like number one in the she was just everywhere so let me hit you up with some facts. First of all, remember Miley, much like
Starting point is 01:47:08 Seth Jones or like Steph Curry, grew up here. That's right. In the T-Dot. Did you know that, Stu? What was the TV show her dad was on? Doc. Doc? Was it Doc? Yeah, Doc.
Starting point is 01:47:25 I never saw Doc, but I knew it was filmed here, and he did that for a few years, so Miley was here. Hold on here. It is me who's built that life. This is like the theme song for the Toronto Maple Leafs the year that they... The year they what? It's like Phil Kessel.
Starting point is 01:47:42 When they lost to the first round, I guess, but they would come in the locker room after every win and bump this song. This song was released in the summer of 2013. Wow. Seven years already. Now, Billy Ray, who is the... Lil Nas X. The musician, right?
Starting point is 01:47:57 Jimmy Ray. That saves his ass from us ever chatting about Billy Ray as a one-hit wonder. He's out of those conversations now. Well, he's got another big hit. His daughter. That was a pretty big hit. Yeah, but the Little Nas X hit, which was the most weeks at number one, beating a Black Eyed Peas record.
Starting point is 01:48:23 I think Post Malone may have just been making a run at that. See, I don't know if he beat that. Lastly, I'm a little late with my news there. Tom Bachman. Tyler says in the chat room, Bert, try to be home by 11. That's really good.
Starting point is 01:48:40 That's really great. Yeah, I love Bert Blythe. Tyler, the creator. That is great. Thank you. He's always a gem. Okay, so the big hit, of course, is Achy Breaky Heart. That's the big Billy Ray Cyrus hit. You know it. You probably love it. I think Miley just put out like a Hall & Oates cover.
Starting point is 01:48:58 She's good at these covers. Maynard. She's just good covers. Is she really? Yeah. She also did Jolene very well. I was going to say, she calls them just like, this is Toronto Mike, the backyard sessions.
Starting point is 01:49:07 Yeah, she does the backyard sessions. She does backyard sessions as well. Jolene really shows off that she can really, that she's the real deal. And that's her godmother. Dolly Parton. Correct.
Starting point is 01:49:16 Dolly Parton is, who, really? I don't want to, this next thing we'll save for another jam. It ties into Dolly Parton and somebody else. She's a great singer. She's covered in tattoos.
Starting point is 01:49:26 Did you know that? No, I didn't know that. Dolly Parton is covered in tattoos. That's why you always see her with long sleeves on. Wow. Yeah, she's sleeved up.
Starting point is 01:49:34 You're bringing the goods here. Yeah, like I saw that like rolling around Twitter. Like, I never heard that. Now, there was another song. I remember this shortly after Achy Breaky Heart.
Starting point is 01:49:44 Party in the USA? No, for Billy Breaky Heart. Party in the USA? No, for Billy Ray. Yeah, Party in the USA was like the first big non-Hannah Montana thing that I remember from Miley Cyrus. Because I have a daughter who's 16 now who was obsessed with Hannah Montana. I took her to the movie, and she danced in the aisle. It was like, this is so – I live this stuff.
Starting point is 01:50:01 Remember the Migos song? Hannah Montana, Hannah Montana, Hannah Montana. Yeah, French Montana. No, no, no. It was called Hannah Montana. I'm going stuff. Remember the Migos song? Hannah Montana. Hannah Montana. Hannah Montana. Yeah, French Montana. No, no, no. It was called Hannah Montana. I'm going to send you the link. Okay. The song, there is a Billy Ray song.
Starting point is 01:50:12 It was called Could Have Been Me. And he goes, it could have been me. Like, I can't, I won't do the rest of it. Except I remember it being like a mild hit shortly after A.Q. Brady. Like that was the follow-up? Yeah, that was the follow-up. And it did, like it did well enough. Like that was the follow-up?
Starting point is 01:50:22 Yeah, that was the follow-up. And it did well enough. It's a country jam, but I think it hit 72 on the U.S. chart. Mike, do you remember the mashup of Party in the USA and the Notorious B.I.G. Party and Bullshit? No. Yes, I do. Yeah, which is, I feel like it was like an early sort of like real internet mashup. Well, it wasn't even really that early because, I mean,
Starting point is 01:50:44 that Party in the USA is not that old I just sent you a DM is it working? yeah alright bear with us everybody I'm going into and he's got a link from
Starting point is 01:50:58 Stu Stone he just clicked it good morning Vietnam oh yeah oh it's a visual thing. Okay. I didn't realize. Fast forward, maybe. Hannah Montana. Hannah Montana. We're just leaving, I don't know. All day.
Starting point is 01:51:31 She twerk on the top of my funnel. Twerk, twerk. Got Hannah Montana. She twerking so much. Can't handle her. No way. I'll send this to my daughter. Maybe she knows it already there.
Starting point is 01:51:41 But that's good stuff. Hannah Montana. Hannah Montana. Hannah Montana. That's the hook. High concept. Well, it got them famous. Sure. This artist might get us talking about Dolly Parton again. You ready, Stu?
Starting point is 01:51:52 Is this Cam's choice? Oh, did I skip something? You're right. I screwed up again, but I've caught myself. Thank you for telling me that. This is Cam's choice. This is Cam's. I don't know if this will get us talking about Dolly Parton or not. Yeah, I'm kind of meh about this one. Oh, really? You still chose it.
Starting point is 01:52:06 I know. Usually when we have a meh, we get anything better. It usually opens with it. Just tail off. I can't. I thought it was topical. See, don't fail me now, Point. You know?
Starting point is 01:52:21 Okay, here we go. I'm thinking of Arrested Development right now. Like the band Tennessee Mr. Wendell Clark Right, Wendell Clark Mr. Wendell Clark Hero of the day I can see clearly now
Starting point is 01:52:44 The blade has gone And I can see all Obstacles in my way This is what he went with I think it's good Is this our big hit? Like a live version of this song? Or is it because the guy just died, I guess.
Starting point is 01:53:07 Johnny Nash? It's a few things. I only know him from Hercules. It's a few things, yeah. I mean, I thought it was topical when I saw she covered it. So yeah, this is the Miss Liza Minnelli. Cam favorite. Sure.
Starting point is 01:53:21 Live version of, I can see clearly now, a cover of Johnny Nash from 1974 only a couple years after this original came out and we of course just lost Johnny Nash we talked about this last week again like this was sort of a blind spot for me like Mike Love and Kevin Love
Starting point is 01:53:39 I never knew her mom was Judy Garland when did you learn? because that one shocked me that's shocking to me. Yesterday. That's shocking to me. Yeah. But you don't really like,
Starting point is 01:53:48 I noticed you'll have these pop culture blind spots. Like we'll say something like, you know, oh, That's Shade. What's the name of the band? Yeah.
Starting point is 01:53:57 Oh yeah, Rain Man. Remember? You'll be like, oh, I never saw it. Like it's like, you don't,
Starting point is 01:54:02 you just, you don't partake in it. Did you ever watch Arrested Development? No. Good good show i highly recommend it okay and what's the tie-in with liza manelli oh she's in a character and she plays oh she's actually you know people have referred to liza manelli as strides in on coke she's just like a wide-eyed there's a good mini series i'm gonna promote called fossy verdon and i highly recommend and there's a good mini-series I'm going to promote called Fosse Verdon and I highly recommend it there's a lot you know Fosse
Starting point is 01:54:28 did the cabaret or whatever what kind of steaming pile of facts did you have for Liza Minnelli not many not many but would you believe that this is wait who's her mom have you told us yet I know Judy Garland
Starting point is 01:54:43 now would you believe this is actually the second song from this album that we've heard on Pandemic Fridays? Really? You've played Liza? I think you really, really like Liza now. Well, this is from a live album live at the Winter Garden. Which Cam was there. I was there in 1974.
Starting point is 01:55:00 Is that like to you what Kenny Rogers was to me? Like something your mom just played all the time when you were a kid? No, Cam was a big Liza guy. No, my dad would play like Neil Diamond. Which pairs well with... It does pair well. That pairs well with Liza. Do you guys remember what the other song from this album we listened to?
Starting point is 01:55:17 Something about like Umbrellas? I don't fucking have a clue. So it was the episode... Let me just check myself here. Check yourself before you write this. Non-Canadian covers of Canadian songs. Right. Because from the same performance.
Starting point is 01:55:34 It was... What's his name? If you can read my mind. Yeah, Gord. Do you have like a mind blow that goes along with this? No. No mind blow. Any more fun facts?
Starting point is 01:55:44 Is this a lunch bag let down? There's an interesting natural effect having. I guess it's warmer now. I see like there's condensation. Droplets? Droplets. It's going to get colder because tomorrow is supposed to be 10 degrees colder. Okay.
Starting point is 01:55:59 Is it happening right now? Yeah. Okay. Maybe the lights are warming. Dude, what's the chat room saying about that? Is everyone like that? Basically, everyone's... They all went to watch Faking a Murderer.
Starting point is 01:56:08 People are pretty much shitting all over. Went over to Joe Biden. Cam, what a dumpster fire of a pick. Oh, stop it. Oh, that's just his dad who wrote that one. Charles Senior. What an MF, right? Lucille had vertigo.
Starting point is 01:56:19 Lucille 2. Yeah, Lucille 2 is Liza's character. Lucille 2. Yeah, because Lucille was the mom's name. Okay. Great show, honest to God. Liza Minnelli. Good pick, Kim.
Starting point is 01:56:30 Okay. Who said that? Judy Garland. No, me. Judy Garland. Judy Garland. Is she an artist? Judy Garland?
Starting point is 01:56:37 Well, I know she was in The Wizard of Oz. She's a huge singer. Yeah, I thought that she was just a singing actress, like a Barbra Streisand type. But she would sell out, like, she would sing. Carnegie Hall. Yeah, yeah, yeah. And she would sell out, like, she would sing. Carnegie Hall. Yeah, yeah, yeah. And she did that stuff. All the big rooms. Yeah. Have you seen the movie with Renee Zellweger playing...
Starting point is 01:56:53 Yeah, apparently she was a big drunk. Yeah, this is a really good movie. Judy Garland. A biopic with Renee Zellweger. You should see it. Okay, so that's a really... That is a lunch bag let down. Get Gordon on the phone. You know, Cam, I think for my number one song, the subject matter is offspring, children of famous celebrities or famous musicians.
Starting point is 01:57:16 Yeah, and Liza fits that bill wonderfully. She does, but I'm saying my song, my number one choice here, encompasses it not only just the fact that this is an artist who had families that were famous singers, but also a song about children. So that's... Wow.
Starting point is 01:57:33 Above and beyond. We don't deserve you, Stu. You don't. According to Humble and Fred, you don't. We're losing you for three weeks as you go to make something wonderful in the U.S. of A. It's okay. What shall we do? I'll be back. Promise?
Starting point is 01:57:47 I believe the children are our future. Teach them well. Let them lead the way. It's like the Louis Reed version. Show them all the beauty they possess inside. Give them a sense of pride To make it easier It's the Shatner version.
Starting point is 01:58:08 Let the children's laughter Let the children. A little schmaltzy. Reminds how we used to be You know what's good? Common People by William Shatner is pretty good. Yeah. He does a good job on Common People.
Starting point is 01:58:18 Searching for heroes People need someone to look up to I never found anyone to fulfill my needs. I'm just going to keep singing. Go for it. This is the jam I said would bring up Dolly Parton in a roundabout
Starting point is 01:58:36 way, and I'll let Stu do his fun facts. You know what? I decided long ago never to walk in anyone's shadow. It's not fair if I succeed. At least she has her dignity. It's coming up.
Starting point is 01:58:53 No matter what they take from me, they can't take away my dignity. Because the greatest love of all Is happening Ironically enough, Whitney Houston, daughter of... Can I do it? Sure. Sissy Houston.
Starting point is 01:59:16 Sissy Houston and niece of... Dionne Warwick. Sure. Whitney Houston was an unknown hopeful when then president of Arista Records, Clive Davis, heard her sing this song at a New York club. How about that? Now, she was a teenager, I believe, and she was stunning.
Starting point is 01:59:39 She was a model. It didn't take like a super... But she was singing this song, and then it ends up becoming a single of hers. But I mean, Clive gets a lot of credit here, but I think Cam Gordon himself would have said there's a star right there. She's radiant. She had it all. Beautiful.
Starting point is 01:59:54 Didn't she almost have it all? Didn't we almost have it all? Almost had it all. Now, was this recorded before? Like, were there other versions of this song? Oh, yes. We'll get to that because it is my number one pick. I always have a mind below.
Starting point is 02:00:06 There's a fun fact that Stu would share about how many of the Whitney Houston hits are covers. Yes. Of course, I Will Always Love You, big cover. I sent you one that I didn't know was a cover. Which one was that? Was that Saving All My Love For You? Yeah. Saving All My Love For You cover.
Starting point is 02:00:23 Yeah, it's a cover. And you mentioned the Do it's a cover. So, yeah, and you mentioned the Dolly Parton cover. It's just kind of like a throwback in that way because that was very, like, common, like, in the, you know,
Starting point is 02:00:30 female singers belting out standards. This song became a major hit topping the charts in Australia, Canada, and the U.S. Moving on.
Starting point is 02:00:37 Go on. Moving on. Pushing forward. This song's a fucking smash. Spent three weeks at number one on the Billboard chart. It's alright. Let's just get a handle on this. We've heard some great songs tonight. There's two versions of this song. There was a piano version which appeared on the original album
Starting point is 02:00:54 but the single had a keyboard intro and the keyboard version became more popular so they replaced the piano. There's a rare pressing of the Whitney Houston album that if you have yours at home with the piano version on it, that's like a rare version of the record. She also covered the Star Spangled Banner.
Starting point is 02:01:10 Well, that's, I guess. She sang it. She didn't write it, right? No. I feel like for any song of this vintage at Suprings, we need like six degrees of Steve Luthaker or whatever that guy's name is. Please tell me he's involved.
Starting point is 02:01:22 There feels like there must be some time. As I listen to this now, I wonder if he played on this right now. It doesn't age well. It's really of its time. I'm just speaking. Well, you know the most famous cover version of this song, if you want to cut this off.
Starting point is 02:01:34 Well, let her finish. Come on, it's Whitney fucking Houston. Have some respect. Psychic Friends Network. Have some respect. I'm going to see if Steve Lukather ever played on Whitney Houston. I feel like now there's a direct connection because Dionne Warwick was on The Celebrity Apprentice with some guy named Donald Trump.
Starting point is 02:01:48 Guess what? What? Steve Lukather did play on plenty of Whitney Houston songs. Not surprising. So this is Yacht Rock. Oh, Exhale, the Shoop Shoop song. Oh. Oh, God.
Starting point is 02:02:04 Steve Lukather. Here's the most famous cover of the song, Kim. Show them all the beauty they possess. What's that? What the hell's going on? Thank you. Teach them well and let them lead the way. Is this Cat Callum?
Starting point is 02:02:26 No, no. Just keep those. He's got to tell us who this is. Give them a sense. Crank this, man. Make it easier. That's all I got. Some of the good stuff, right?
Starting point is 02:02:37 Coming up. Want a Coke? You don't know this song? Join the show. Randy Watson. Enjoy. You know Randy Watson? Them sexual chocolates. Coming to America? You've never seen this song? Join the show. Randy Watson. Enjoy. You know Randy Watson? Them sexual chocolates.
Starting point is 02:02:47 Coming to America. You've never seen the movie? No. What? Oh, my God. My mind is blown. No idea. Kim's never seen Coming to America.
Starting point is 02:02:57 Yeah, I tried to warn you. Popular song, movies like that, he hasn't seen. I know what it is, at least. You've got to watch that movie. It's a classic. It's so funny. One of these days. I know what it is, at least. You've got to watch that movie. It's a classic. It's so funny. I know I do. You've seen this.
Starting point is 02:03:09 Oh, yeah, a million times. It's like Arsenio Hall. There's a sequel coming out in December. Coming to America 2 is coming in December. It's going to be a big hit.
Starting point is 02:03:16 Randy Watson, Sexual Chocolate, but Cam, what if I told you that the original version of the song was actually recorded?
Starting point is 02:03:24 God damn that boy, Kasane. By the way, that's Arsenio Hall, by the way, who was playing Randy Watson. Here's the original version, which also has quite a lot of fun facts attached to it. He is a yacht rocker. Oh, yes. We'll let this one play for a little bit here.
Starting point is 02:03:41 I'm listening to NPR. Tickling the ibers. Very beautiful song. The original version of The Greatest Love of All. Haggard Hardy. Come away with me. I believe the children are our future.
Starting point is 02:03:59 Teach them well and let them lead the way. Show them all the beauty they possess inside That's right. Give them a sense of pride Of course, smooth sounds of the great George Benson. Oh!
Starting point is 02:04:19 Love George Benson. The song was an R&B chart-topping hit for him in 1977. The song was actually the main theme of the 1977 film The Greatest, a biopic of the boxer Muhammad Ali, and it plays during the opening credits of the film. Right. Eight years later, the song became a worldwide smash when it was covered by a young
Starting point is 02:04:46 Whitney Houston. Stu, well done, my friend. That was good. I decided long ago never to walk in Toronto Mike's shadow. Have you considered putting out a covers album? I have.
Starting point is 02:05:10 Why not just do it, man? You know, I've done a cover of Hallelujah that's pretty popular. Is it? Oh, yes. It's like a sincere cover, like Sancho. Yeah. Yeah, it's actually quite good. Oh, wow.
Starting point is 02:05:28 Look at that. Look at that. Well, you could play my cover of Hallelujah as a mind blow if you want. That's pretty fun. You know, me and Mike were on the same page today. We both had another line. Mike Wilner, we both said at the same time. I played that for Mike Wilner and asked him about it.
Starting point is 02:05:44 I think we're friends now. I think we just became friends. I think we just became friends. Cam hasn't seen that movie. I literally just... Yeah. I couldn't believe it when you said it, actually.
Starting point is 02:06:00 My final jam, everybody. Do you want me to send you a link to my cover? Yeah, send it over. I have a fun thing on the end of this too I hear there's a Gord Downie version floating around I just want to see Mike start to like bury the lead
Starting point is 02:06:14 anyway I'm gonna let go I heard there was a secret chord that David played and it pleased the Lord. But you don't really care for music, do you? Love this guy. Second time being played on Pandemic Fridays. The minor fall and the major list.
Starting point is 02:06:41 The baffled king composing Hallelujah. Major Fitz. People are upset that the Wallflowers got Hanson, but they didn't. They did get Hanson. Did they? I thought we played one headlight or one of those. No. I mean, they were on my short list. Is Hanson and Scattergory the same thing? Like, I feel like, again, there's some just obvious choices no one chooses because... Well, I thought you might go with Nelson, to be honest.
Starting point is 02:07:08 Yeah. After the rain... Go full Nelson. Okay, so we're listening right now to Jeff Buckley covering Leonard Cohen. Whose father invented Buckley's mixture. It tastes terrible, but it works. I remember that. Buckley, sadly, of course, Jeff Buckley died.
Starting point is 02:07:25 He drowned. He drowned, yeah, and he was only... I remember that Buckley sadly of course Jeff Buckley died did he drown? he drowned yeah and he was only 30 years old and god he does a good job on this song and you hear this in a lot of movies
Starting point is 02:07:38 of course this is a big version I think it's as famous as the Leonard Cohen version this version I'd argue perhaps more famous I think for the first time that take might be correct so this album is called Grace It's as famous as the Leonard Cohen version. I'd argue perhaps more famous.
Starting point is 02:07:47 I think for the first time that take might be correct. So this album is called Grace. Sheepshot, go on. This album is called Grace. Not to be confused with Grace 2. Or Mark Grace. Spoiler alert for my next jam. Do you think they called Grace 2 as like a sequel to... I don't think there's...
Starting point is 02:08:03 When did Grace... It's like around the same time. Grace... Like around the same time. Oh yeah, around the same time. Yeah, this is 94. Okay. Mrs. Phone is annoyed that Wallflower's got Hanson to quote blame Kim for that.
Starting point is 02:08:13 Mrs. Who? Mrs. Phone. Mrs. Phone. Tim's wife. Mrs. Phone. Mrs. Phone. So you're probably wondering about the parent.
Starting point is 02:08:23 Yeah. So let me tell you about Tim Buckley. Pitcher for the San Francisco Giants. Who, by the way, died at 28. Oh, boy. So this is some sad stuff here today. Tim Flannery.
Starting point is 02:08:36 Tim Buckley. Surfboard. He died of a heroin overdose. Oh. At the young age of 28. Oh, he's done it again. And Tim Buckley, yeah, popular musician. You're right, Tim Buckley's the basketball guy.
Starting point is 02:08:56 But Tim Buckley, how would we describe Tim Buckley? He was an American vocalist, songwriter, guitarist, producer. Collaborator of Fader Street. He was kind of a folk music guy, but he had some jazz and psychedelia and funk and soul in there. The Zappa Boys got screwed. Didn't they release records?
