is Cam Gordon and Stu Stone. Welcome back, guys. Oh, wow. Wait, what's happening, Stu? Aaron Judge just hit his home run. Is that right? Literally right now. What?

Yeah. 61. 61 was hit off of Tim Meza. Okay, well, that only ties the American League record, so let's get a little perspective here. Yes. That's a big one. Okay.

Sueda just ruined the moment there for him. Michael? Well, it's just we're talking like he's going to set a Major League record with his next home run. He's the first one to do it without the use of PEDs that we know of. I know, but I think I'm siding with Andrew Stodin on this one, which is like, what was legal when? What was allowed when?

You're really just the moment. Literally, the body is still warm, Mike. But it only ties Roger Maris' record. The next one's the big one, right? The next one's the big one. No, 61. That's it. That ties.

So that's big. Okay, yeah, I know. But the next one's the big one right the next one's 61 that's the ties yeah so that's big okay yeah i know but the next one will be the breaking the record but congratulations to aaron judge uh unfortunately just happened as we recorded this okay so that happened live everybody what else just happened who died okay something else just happened here let's talk about this everything is happening as Bob Cole would say and then we're gonna find out who's right Cam about the big question we're gonna ask

Stu Stuart did you ever meet Coolio yes I worked with him many times there you go I knew it

I knew it too but I wanted to pick the other side okay tell us about your experiences with the late that's right the late Cool That's right, the late. Why?

It's just like you have such joy in your voice breaking the news of a tragic passing of a 59-year-old man. No, I'm just passionate. That gave us such hits as Gangsta's Paradise. Fantastic Voyage. Okay, name a third. 1, 2, 3, 4. Get Your Booty on the Floor. The Monstars.

There was When You Get Here, If You Ever Get Here. I'll See You When You Get Here. His gospel phase. F-O, Mike. Not happy he's gone. Shout out to Ridley Funeral Home. Not happy he's gone. I worked with Coolio on several occasions.

One of them was a music video shoot where I was directing the video. It was just like a later in his career video that would never really you know it didn't turn into anything special but it was a special day for me I don't think he was too thrilled with how things were going on that particular day we got to the first location which we rented out this big mansion and how these girls there you know the rap video type stuff you would see and we get there and like the neighbors call the cops because they see like a rap video unfolding in their neighborhood which is the cops come in and shut shut us down so now i have all these people there and i have nowhere to shoot

the video we're in orange county california 45 minutes away from L.A. I call a friend of mine. We'll call him Pizza. Ooh. My friend Pizza. Not as real name. And I'm like, hey, Pizza, what are you doing right now? He's like,

what, you need him to shut the bathroom door? Well, Cam doesn't like it when the live stream shows me that. It just shows you how into the story. I'm telling this bold, never- I'll go do it. This never-before-told story. Moments after learning of my old colleague Julio passing

and you're worried about the bathroom. You're so vain, Mike. I bet you think this song is about you. I was going to discreetly have Cam do that. Well, now I'm not going to tell the story unless you tell me where was I. I was listening. Where was I then? Okay, you got the cop shut it down.

You called pizza. I called pizza. First of all, while we're waiting, the cop shut us down. We had to leave the neighborhood. We end up at this grocery store where Coolio goes inside, and he buys popsicles for everybody. Like a real sweetheart. He handed out popsicles. We were all eating popsicles.

So I called my friend Pizza, and I'm like, Pizza, what are you doing right now? He's like, nothing. I'm like, do you think I could come to your house with a camera crew, Coolio, and a bunch of girls and shoot a music video at your house? I'm picturing like Harvey Keitel in Light Puff. He's like, sure, come on over. So we scrap all of the creative that was at this mansion and we go to my friend's modest backyard, which doesn't, you know, now he has a pool and stuff.

He didn't have that then. And we pulled a car into his backyard and we made like a car wash. And that was the video. So I don't know if he was too thrilled about that. But then the second time I worked with him was a presidential campaign. I don't know if you remember a few years ago,

Coolio was running for vice president of the United States. I remember this. And I was involved in shooting. But who was the president? A woman named Cherie DeVille. Okay, I didn't know that. And they didn't actually get nominated, but they made like campaign videos and whatnot.

Okay. So he was a lot more in better spirits that day. I think he was having a lot more fun. But genuinely, I'll say he was a pretty down-to-earth guy. Loved to party, that's for sure. And hearing the news that he's passed away is definitely sad. And I totally remember 1995, 94, 93 culio was had a run like he had a run it's a big fucking deal yeah chart topping yeah like gangster's paradise

was a massive song huge from the uh the movie what was the movie called dangerous minds with michelle pfeiffer um and so yeah shout out to to all of the people that worked on what I was just talking about. But Coolio was definitely like we all have stories. But at this point when we were working with him, he only had like one or two things. But he still had them. But he didn't have like a whole head of those Coolio signature braids. Right. He just had a few of them there.

But listen, when he was having fun he's great he bought you popsicles I know you made a joke that I was happy he was gone of course nobody's happy the world is a better place with Coolio if Coolio was happy and having a good time then everybody was having a good time I'm trying to find this video

Coolio's at the water park there's like a lazy river somewhere down the lazy river it's a shame though I'll say this that for all of the success that Coolio's at the water park here. There's like a lazy river. Somewhere down the lazy river. It's a shame, though. I'll say this. For all of the success that Coolio had, he probably, somebody somewhere probably screwed him over at some point. Because the amount of money he must have made,

he should have been totally, you know. It's a shame. Because I think the last couple of years of his life, I don't know. I know he did a cooking show at one point. He was trying a whole bunch of different stuff. He was big with the Juggalos, right? Yeah, Juggalo.

He was trying to reinvent himself, trying to capitalize on the reality TV stuff. Nothing really kind of panned out. Was he on The Surreal Life? I'm not sure, but it seems like something he may have done. But I definitely, it's another one of these random kind of celebrities that i'm fortunate enough to have stories about and uh julio was a talented guy man he was pretty you he was pretty big man yeah yeah good gangsters paradise forget that the song you played fantastic voyage yeah i remember that being just like such a sick

song like when i came out it was just like okay i like this guy one of the jams of that summer and and as we know that song because we've played it in a pandemic friday in the past it's like about like a drive-by shooting or something it's like not it sounds like this happy song but it's really like you know come come along and take a ride. We're gonna go kill some people. Far from it. So, anyway. Sorry for your loss, Stu, and for the world's loss. Coolio

dead at 59. Breaking news. Just prior to the Aaron Judge 60th home run. We got that news here. The ball landed in the Blue Jays' bullpen and the ball's allegedly worth like $3 million. So I wonder, you know, are they going to give it back to Aaron, or are they going to, you know, ask for some cash?

It looked like one of the pitchers, like, handed it to someone. So I assume that's going to be right. It was on Celeb Big Brother, according to the chat. Okay, that checks it. Okay, we're going to check in with the chat in a moment here. But Cam. Yes, is this like Irish music or what is this?

Is that what you were setting this? You interrupted Coolio's eulogy to play this Irish music? Well, I want to ask Cam about his recent adventures. I'm sure his adventures will be more exciting than my Coolio stories. No, no. I didn't expect you to end your Coolio story.

I was in Belfast. How about that? Did you see Fit Finley? I did not see Fit Finley. So what'd you do there? Did you roll around? A little bit. There was a little bit of that.

Did you have a good time? I had a great time. Did you go to any Irish pubs? I went to many Irish pubs. And is it like what it seems like in the movies? Like you go in there and everyone's like ah here um somewhere yeah especially god i'm trying to think like like we're in kill there's kill kill kenny and there's calarney we were in calarney um definitely there we were in galloway we actually sat on the patio in Galway, which is great. We were in the north, so we were Derry.

Home of the Undertones. Derry Girls is a good TV show. There's the big Derry Girls mural up there. Did you go to the childhood home of Bono? No, I don't think we really saw too much YouTube bric-a-brac. I did see the...

Did you just say that Irish? Is that Gaelic? What? Bric-a-brac? That's just like... Is you just say that Irish? Is that Gaelic? What? Prickabrack? Prickabrack. That's just like... Is that like rigmarole? Prickabrack. They used to say that at the Gordon House. Doohickeys, gizmos.

I did see the Phil Lynott statue in Dublin from Thin Lizzy. Wow. That's a big deal. Back in town. There was also in Belfast, there's a big mural of the Beastie Boys for some reason. That famous Northern Ireland. I've not been to Belfast.

I've been to Dublin. I've not been to Belfast. But okay, that jam I played to get you to talk about your trip to Ireland. Was that the Dubliners? So that's the Irish Rovers. Oh, of course. They used to have commercials

for Irish Rovers stuff like on TV, like the Irish Rovers. Well, here, I have a couple of mind blows for you guys. I hope you're sitting down, okay? We're going to start early, and we're going to blow minds often tonight. It's been a while since we recorded. We're later than normal. Normally, we're the third Thursday of the month.

This is like, I don't know. By the way, there's probably not going to be any more Thursdays on the card. Why? Tell me. I guess we'll just talk off air. You're not available Thursdays? I don't think so. We've got a big Kingston gig Thursday nights with me and Margo.

So that jam is by the Irish Rovers. Where are the Irish Rovers from? Who wants to take a stab at this? Yeah. Brampton? I'm disappointed you're nailing it. Like Gander. Like you're supposed to say something like

Oh the Irish Rovers are from Dublin They're actually from Scarborough? They're from Toronto Shut up! Really? They're like a massive Toronto act We went to the Rovers We saw the Rovers many times We did?

This is the Rovers? Oh this was played on CFNY Yeah This is the Rovers? Oh, this was played on CFNY. I didn't know the Rovers had traditional pop music. So let me explain. So they were the Irish Rovers, and then I played Drunken Sailor, and they did stuff like that. And then this is actually, they took the word Irish out of their name,

and they went by the Rovers. And this was their big crossover jam. Like this was a legit hit. Wasn't that a party? Wow. Just Ian Service was correcting me. Margot's name is Monica. No, Ian's name is Tim.

You know, it's one of those kind of deals. It's Margot now. Okay, I'm glad you mentioned Ian who's on the live. I know he wants to go by Tim. If you're watching us live, please press one so we know you're there. One in the chat room. So I will say this. I know I'm playing Wasn't That a Party and I'm about to crack open a Great Lakes beer, but I want to say.

When was this a hit? Early 80s, I want to say. Early 80s. I've never heard this. Really? Yeah. I grew up hearing this all the time. Okay.

It's CanCon. Irish Rovers. I don't know this song, cable guy jeff's here he pressed one that's big like in the chat like signed in cable guy jeff that's big okay shout out to cable guy uh for sure okay so i want to just say on a serious tip i want to say uh the east coast got hammered the east coast f-o-t-m's got hammered by the hurricane. By Fiona. And as we speak, Florida's getting nailed by Ian.

Yeah, Hurricane Tim. Hurricane Timmy. That's actually pretty scary. I have a lot of friends in Tampa, in the Florida area. And it's scary what you see on the news. Hopefully it's like over-exaggerated. Hopefully it's fake news, but it doesn't seem like it It's windy

It's scary I wouldn't want to be there Dealing with that And I'm blessed that we live in a city Where the only real terrible thing That's in the song The song has an amber alert in it Did you hear that?

I did I'm going back in the song for a second That's not an amber alert That's. Did you hear that? I did. Okay, hold on. I'm going back in this song for a second here. Hold on. That's not an amber alert. That's just like an instrument. It's a siren. It's like an ambulance. I heard that like just stick in the background

and I thought my phone had an amber alert going off. Okay, so I also want to crack open a beer, a Great Lakes beer. Naples, Florida is like underwater here. It's pretty bad, actually. So Mike's just underplaying it, but it sounds like anybody's listening in the Florida area. I said they were getting hammered.

Hammered by nails. Ian's really effing them up. Yeah, super windy. Okay, so I hope everybody's being safe. More than windy. Look at this photo. That's like a lake, a Great Lakes brewery. Well, it's a class three hurricane, so it's

going to be more than just windy, but okay. Mike is really snarky after 9 o'clock, isn't he? I know. His attitude is just like he becomes a real piece of human filth or whatever it was. Human garbage. No, that was rude.

Comic- Con took place I'm going to read something here Canadian film, television and voice over actor Stu Stone will be at Hamilton Comic Con 2022 He is best known for his roles as Ronald Fisher in the cult film

Donnie Darko Ralphie Tinelli I didn't even know Ralphie had a last name. Tinelli. I guess he's Italian. Shout out to Palma Pasta. Yeah, thank you, Palma Pasta. On the Magic School Bus animated television series.

And Chucky, no last name, from My Pet Monster. Chucky Schwartz. Okay, I need to know what happened here. I'll tell you one funny story. Are you going to cut me off with some nonsense about your bathroom? Is everything good? Can I tell a story? Tell the fucking story.

After 9 o'clock, Ken. I know. He really becomes a real different guy. Yeah. Have another swig. Yeah. Here's the deal. I'm the one who just set up Comic-Con.

Take the address. This guy comes up to me with his kid and his wife. I presume it's his wife. But that's just speculation. And they came up to the table, and I've got a couple of brickbrack going on on the table. I've got some brickbrack. Some glossies.

I've got some photos of my pet monster. I've got some photos of Donnie Darko. I'm a sad Virgil. I've got some photos of the Magic School Bus, the three credits that the convention advertised. Those are the three frick fracks that I had available so you know I also have the My Pet Monster doll at the table

because you know that's like a magnet that brings people in they're like oh look that's Monster and then they're like oh you were in the Monster and then it turns into a whole like sale anyway so this guy comes over with his, I guess it was his wife. A woman.

Yeah. And a young son. And they walk over to him and he's like, oh my God, my monster. I love it. That's like my childhood. And I'm like, yeah, mine too. And we're all like. Sorry, the dad said this?

and I'll tell you the booth next to me was PJ Phil from YTV FOTM yeah I dropped your name to him oh I love that guy I said hey do you know Toronto Mike?

He's like, yep, he's the best. He's the one that broke the news about this, that, and the other thing. You should bring Phil back on the show because he's cool. And I met him recently. He's a tag team wrestling champion at Super Kicked, I found out, which is kind of cool. He's a wrestler now. Yeah. Wow.

Because he can't weigh more than 90 pounds. No. He's soaking wet. Did you see him at the Zoomerplex? Yeah, I just saw him at the Zoomerplex with Jay Gold and Retro Ontario. That's ridiculous. PJ and myself, we were like fast friends because our booths were next to each other and they were fairly similar traffic.

I don't know what he was pricing his stuff at, but I feel like he was undercutting me. You know, but he was definitely a fun time and then on the other side was kurt angle oh my god olympic gold medal yes and kurt angle's line was like all the way down the block that's a big so i got a little bit of kurt angle runoff okay which was good for my for my that's quite you the meat in the uh pj fresh fill kurt angle sandwich angle yes you talk to Kurt Engel?

A little bit. I was like, we have some mutual people. I dropped the right name. What's he like in person? And what name do you drop? I happen to know his manager, so I dropped his manager's name, and I said I'm friends with Hawk,

and he's like, oh, yeah. I feel like Paul Heyman. Yes. And then also, for Cam's's interest and for Cam Brio, anyone named Cam who would probably like this. Who else was there? So it went Kurt Angle.

Then next to him was Billy Gunn. Okay, Mr. Ass. Yeah, he was there. I didn't talk to him. Then next to him was his sons, the Gunn Club. They're AEW wrestlers. Didn't really spend too much time with them.

Then next to them was D-Von Dudley. Okay, sure. He was a very wrestling heavy show. That's good. Sp show that's good spoke to devon he was cool did he throw you through a table no but i i wanted him to then next to him was uh victoria which a wrestler okay sure yeah which i interviewed her for something else and then on the end who was on the end some oh the godfather and uh i chilled with him for sure. It ain't easy. Oh, it was not easy. Now, if you go this way, the other side of my table,

it was the lady from Corner Gas, who maybe is a Toronto Mike. Wait, but the wife of the founder? Because which lady from Corner Gas? Like the cop. The younger one. Oh, she's been in this basement. Yeah, she's cool. She was on the feminine really.

Me and her really hit it off, and I think we're going to maybe work on something together because we really hit it off. I remember she said that she couldn't get work. And she said. She's just doing it wrong. Next to her. Yeah, she's nice. Dean Cain.

Okay, that's a big deal. Deep Roy, if you know who that is. That's my boy. Problematic, Dean Cain. A little problematic. He had a tweet that trended about complaining about wearing a mask on the way home. Yeah. Well, anyway, Dean Cain? A little problematic. He had a tweet that trended about complaining about wearing a mask on the way home. Yeah, well, anyway, Dean Cain was there.

And then next to him was Deep Roy, who's the actor that played the Oompa Loompa in both Willy Wonka movies. And he played Yoda, the guy in the Yoda outfit. He played Ewoks. He's like a little person. A legend. But not from the movie Legend.

No, but he's the man. He was there. The guy who played Jason on Friday the 13th. Whoa. Aunt Viv and the older sister from Fresh Prince. I went to this dinner with them all. It was a fun weekend. That's a big deal.

Yeah, it was a fun weekend. By the way, Andy, I wanted to shout out some people quickly at live.torontomic.com that put up the number one. Yeah, it's Tara Spencer Nairn. Yeah, she is great. She sat right there. Oh, yeah. And then I put her on

Humble and Fred. She is awesome. We had a great bonding kind of session, her and I, and we were riffing on some ideas and we were like,

hey, let's make a show together and maybe that'll happen. You never know. That's how things like that start. Dean, sorry, Andy Pandy, two thumbs down for Dean Cain. Yeah, I didn't have too much interaction with Dean Cain

other than when someone was like Superman or something and I looked over, we had like a one-line exchange to each other, a quick smile, and that was that. Okay, is he still handsome? He looked like he's... Had better days. He's a little bigger than he was, but he still looks like himself. Okay.

He looked like he eats healthy healthy he's got a good appetite no he wasn't like you know he's not like Brendan Fraser he just doesn't look like he would get into the tights for Superman okay so yeah Brendan Fraser apparently going to get

an Oscar nomination for his TIFF movie whale or Brendan Fraser apparently going to get an Oscar nomination for his TIFF movie. That's going to, Whale or something, it's going to happen. Anyway, YYZ Gord, I want to say hello to you. Tobias Vaughn, hello. Patty, Ian Service, Greg, Cambrio, you mentioned, Dan Jay. Wait, Cambrio, real quick, says that Tara is ripped. She is shredded.

And she was wearing this tank top, and she's got guns. You know what I mean? She's just... Is this like a worker? No, no. She's like literally like... Really? She looks like she could beat the shit out of somebody.

So I said to her, why don't we do this show that's like bad? And I don't want to ruin... I don't want to spoil the concert, but she was all over it. She was like, oh, yeah. I could just be like... Oh.

And Basement Dweller. I want to say hi to Basement Dweller. Oh, I like him. He's a fountain of information. Cam, thank you for inviting me to the red carpet and to see the Viola Davis and the rest of the cast. Just give me a look. This is like Tears Are Not Enough Part 3?

How did I not know? This is a media event. Because everyone who's anywhere was there. You're a media member. Yes. Haven't you seen my shows with Rickyicky and ricky ricky so the bait the bicycle mayor is media but stew stone is not is that the bicycle mayor i need to have a conversation with the bicycle mayor there like what is he how was the events it was a great event and what was what was there viola davis viola davis uh i

think she made a very interesting statement she She said... Why are you wearing shorts? She said, Mike, why are you wearing shorts? I was the only one in sandals and shorts, but I was not the only one in a t-shirt. There was one other guy in a t-shirt. MF is in here, by the way. I'll give her a shout out. Give her a shout out. She just showed up. Hello. Where's MF? She's there. Thank you. What's her name? She's looking good, too.

You can't see her. Thank you, Cam, for the invite, but did you consider inviting my friend Stu Stone? It did cross my mind because I do think of you guys as like a package deal, but it was generally for members of the media. I wouldn't have liked it. I'll just say that.

You could have hanged out with me. I was busy anyway. I was trying to get on the family feud. Right, how'd that go? Didn't go very well at all. Why? You'd be a shoo-in. Did that happen or not?

It did happen. You know why? Because Trudy wasn't there. No, she wasn't there. That was the issue. You need Trudy there. Let's just say... When can we see this?

I don't know if you will see this. Let's just say that on the Family Feud, there was a Family Feud. Wow, that's what they want. They want the drama. A couple of quick notes here and we're going to get to... I will tell people the topic, though. We're going to kick out... A lot of quick notes here and we're going to get to, I will tell people the topic though.

We're going to kick out. A lot of stuff's happened. Songs. I know I have a lot of. Also the last time we saw each other was at that fucking live event. Was that the last? Yeah.

Okay. That's wild. That feels like a hundred years ago. The last time, I mean, I saw Cam at the red carpet show. Sorry, Stu,

but the last time the three of us were together was TMLXX, which was September 1st. And yes, Stu is right, of course. He's always right. But what did you guys think of that event? Did you get yourself some Palma Pasta at that event? I didn't.

I think I got there. Because Trudy was there. Trudy did. She loves Palma Pasta. Okay, so thank you, Palma Pasta, for your sponsorship. And StickerU.com. I think she even sucked back a couple of Tallboys, too. Yeah, Great Lakes. They were great.

They were great hosts, too. And the music was fantastic. Oh, yeah. All-star lineup. Pardon me? Did you have a good time at TML? Yeah, it was awesome. I like meeting both Rob Pruse and Blair Packham for the first time.

I'll say that the big bombshell that took place was the budding new friendship that was formed during the TMLXX event and that would be between myself and 1236. Yes. We had such a good time together, he and I, laughing

and hugging and taking photos and doing other unmentionables. And then he got high with some We had a great time. He's a great guy. Well documented. And he thinks I'm a great guy. I think it's over. The beef is over. The beef is over, unfortunately.

But I will say, if I have... You know, you're both invited to my home once a month. Did you need any more evidence that you're good people? Of course you do, guys. Come on.

So I just want to shout out, there's a gentleman named Jason Cuddy who works for Rush Trucking centers rush and i told him we were kicking out modes of transportation jams because these are gonna be songs about a mode of transportation and he said mike you better kick out spadina bus by this shuffle so this is just for jason and just to tease it that we're kicking out songs about a mode of transportation i think people tune in to hear the banter in the brick brack and i feel like you're Jason, and just to tease it, that we're kicking out songs about a mode of transportation. I think people tune in to hear the banter in the Brick Brack, and I feel like you're rushing us into this.

We're not rushing anything. We have a lot of ground to cover. I want to ask you guys if you've heard the Jose Contreras episode of Toronto Morning. Yes. I have not. One fact check. You said Hayden Christensen went to Thornley. Yeah. I never said that. He did.ensen went to Thornley. Yeah. I never said that.

He did. He went to Thornhill. No. He went to the other high school. But why is he listed as a Thornley graduate on the page? Did you change it? I thought I heard Cam say that. Oh, you changed it?

Yeah. You're the one that changed it? Yes. You're a real prick. So just for the record, because I want to get it right next time I have a Thornley graduate. I think he went to Thornley. I'm sticking to that. You're close.

But I'm close, right? Because he was surprised. And that could be like when I said, you know, Sigourney Weaver was Dennis Weaver's son. I did add a couple of new names after listening to that episode to the Thornley alumni. The guy from Danko Jones, I forgot what his name is. Well, you mentioned a member of Rhymes with Orange went to Thornley. Which is a mind blow. Yeah.

How does Thornley produce all these wonderful musicians? It's all Mr. Leonard. Jeff Leonard? The hack man? Leonard Skinner. Richard Underhill, has he been here? Shuffle Demons? No.

No. Seems like a miss. So in addition to all the Thornley chatter, and I got the one fact possibly a little wrong he went to a different thornhill high school or something like that but uh what did you think of jose contreras he had a different energy down here yeah i thought it was good i like that he has been mistaken for the baseball player uh that's right seems like a very kind of esoteric type guy i i thought it was interesting hearing his accounts of their moment.

I remember when Come For A Ride and stuff was on the radio and they opened for the hip and stuff, but they always seemed like I don't think they got to a level of even a band like Treble Charger, which is too bad because they were way bigger than By Divine Right.

And his comments on Feist and Brendan Canning, I thought were very interesting. Yeah, that was a good interview. Interesting dude, too. And I like that he's still going with the band. Because they're a bit of an institution in their own way. Most definitely. So I got a question for Stu,

and I hope it's not going to be too sensitive. If it is, he'll just tell me to F off and we'll move on because I have some fun here. But now I see John Gibbons doing something with other people. I'm wondering what happened to the John Gibbons-Stu Stone show? Well, complicated. I thought that I've already spoken about this before. Do you remember, Cam? I don't remember.

Yeah, I think you might have. He was trying to, he was wanting to pursue a managing career is what I was told. Oh, I don't remember this. Okay. So tell me again. Yeah, I think there was just, I don't know. It wasn't me. That's all I could say about that.

You've moved on to Rick the Temp. Sure. I love Rick. And I'm doing stuff with Ricky Romero now as well. Former Blue Jays pitcher. But yeah, I mean, Gibby's, I guess he's doing something else now.

But I know what I brought to the table. So it's not my loss. Stewie! It's Gibby's loss. I think so. God bless him. And best of luck

in his future endeavors. He's on Twitter now. The year that I spent talking to him was a fun time. And just chalk it up as another chapter in the book. Are you writing a book? Someday. I'd buy that. I'll have you on to promote it.

Maybe an audio book. Are you going to read it yourself? Yeah. I would buy that. Is it... Spidonibus! Spidonibus! Spidonibus. I, today, so today was the 50th,

it is the 50th anniversary of the Paul Henderson goal in game eight of the 1972 Summit Series. I was seven years old. No, you weren't. No. None of us were born, actually, except that I was... But we all know it. Yeah, we all know it like we were watching it,

but we couldn't have watched it. It's like today you go up to a kid, do you know Joe Carter? They don't even know. Like, what has happened? Like, they have all this information at the peak of their... Imagine we had YouTube. Unstoppable.

But, you know, we had to go to a library and look things up. And if you didn't have the patience for that, you just made shit up. Totally. We had to go through encyclopedias. I had a whole book, and you had to go to a library and look things up. If you didn't have the patience for that, you just made shit up. We had to go through encyclopedias. I had a whole book and you had to update the encyclopedias because the world would change. Sometimes your parents or somebody would get an idea that we're going to buy one

a week at the grocery store, but they'd stop after F or whatever. Anything beyond F, you're screwed. I had an encyclopedia. I'm positive that six or seven essays in high school or whatever grade school were like exactly just like encyclopedia entries. And like the teacher has to know. Like, come on. Only Cam was using words like sequester and chicanery.

And what's that other Gaelic word you brought home? Drake-drake? Brick-a-brack. Brick-a-brack. Drake-drake. You know, brick-brack. Only Cam, like if it was Cam, then they would have believed it.

Brick-a-brack. But when it would be me, suspended from school. That's why I've been Gaelic, like Brick-a-brack. I think that's just like... But I thought I knew all these old-timey expressions. Don't you know the Dewey Decimal System?

I saw Ian Service shouted that out on the on the live stream but my grandmother would play Euchre and I'd hear all these old like expressions

from whatever but I don't remember Brick-a-brack what's up 1236 in the building my best friend is he there there we go

so he started smoking weed at TMLXX no I wouldn't say that well he had he smoked a Dewey I wouldn't put him on front street like that

I don't know what he did. He was an adult. I know. He's declared it on my program. Oh, he has? Yeah, he's been open about this. I thought he was fantastic. Stu's so worried I'm telling stories at his school. Yeah, because I'm protecting my friend, 1236. That's my dog. But if I'm telling you it,

I know he's cool. Okay, well then, yeah, he was cool. He mellowed out. He was laughing. He was sitting cross-legged telling stories. He was so friendly. He was just a pleasant guy. It felt like it was like Pickle Barrel at the park. Yeah. I saw him and Blair Packham cracking wives over in the corner.

And between him and Basement Dweller going back and forth on that. Right, Basement Dweller. That was in it. That was like watching those two guys from the Muppet Show go at it. Or like when the other doink showed up. Exactly. Oh my god. What's that reference?

WrestleMania 10. Not our 9. The doink showed up? That's really good. The second doink showed up and he was like, there's two doinks. Who was it? Crush? What my god. So it's the 50th anniversary of the Paul Henderson Bowl. Double doink.

Okay. So I decided I had a couple of hours. I had a few hours in my day, and I thought I would make a pilgrimage to visit the grave of Foster Hewitt. I saw that. I saw your video. So I Googled where he's at, and I found out he's at Mount Pleasant Cemetery,

and then I found out what plot. He's on plot three, and I just biked there, and I found out he's at Mount Pleasant Cemetery and then I found out like what plot he's on plot three and I just biked there and I just went through the whole I hadn't spent much time in Mount Pleasant Cemetery it's far away and I just found plot three and then I found his grave his part was like blocked by like bush but then I

bush eyes I don't want to come back down from this cloud. It's covered in glycerin. I liked 16 Stone. Is it not cool? That's not a cool album to like, right? I actually enjoyed Little Things.

Yeah, well, yeah, they were Bush and Bush X and Bush again. But Little Things is on that and Come Down is on that. Machine Head? Yeah, Machine Head's on that and Glycerin. Breathe out. It was loaded with rock radio hits. I'd say it had some good songs. It was definitely not cool, though.

No, I don't think it's cool, but I've often liked an uncool album or two. Shout out to Kid Rock. Okay, so I visited Foster Hewitt's grave. If people want to see video and pictures, torontomic.com is where you go. Okay, so I want to get to the jams. Of course, if there's anything else we haven't covered

since the last time we were together, because we're late. We're late, right, Cam, because you went to Ireland. Correct. And then it was going to be Thursday, but Stu apparently can't do Thursdays anymore, so everybody should be anticipating an announcement when we announce that.

And also, we're going to have to talk off-air about schedules that are coming up too because I mean, I just got, I'm a working man again coming up. A road working? A road working out or? Like the road warriors. Going back on the road for Dark Side of the Ring Season 4. Ooh. That's a big announcement.

Well, I'm happy for you, but it's going to fuck up my toast program. Okay, we'll talk. I'll still be here for the next episode. Okay, can you share? Probably in November I'll be here. But will you be at TMLX? Because I'm actually trying to plan. I, we'll talk. I'll still be here for the next episode. Okay, can you share anyone you're talking to? Probably in November I'll be here. But will you be at TMLX because I'm actually trying to plan.

I don't think so. Okay, because Cam was bailing on TMLX. Yeah, I won't be here for sure. Yeah. Because that's sad. I meant TBD.

But I will say the last week of November there will be a great event that if you want a sneak preview of. What date? I don't have the date yet but it'll be the premiere of Vandits.

It's going to be... I got to be there. You guys all got to come to that. I got to be there. I'm there. I'm there. I have to... This is the expression

the Dire Straits taught me, but I'm going to be calling Elvis because I need a co-host for December 3rd. No van insurance, by the way. You guys remember last time we did a toast. We did songs by cartoons or Muppets.

Yes. And Cam did Put It In Your Mouth, right, Cam? That was the name of the... Put It In Your Mouth by Akineli? You know that song? So I... Put it in your mouth. You're a motherfucking man.

I spent some time thinking about that jam, right? Put it in your mouth. And then I thought about PS PSAs that we were like like were shoved down our throat in the 80s and early 90s I'm Alistair a robot I can put my arm back on is this it

oh it's very visual this is great theater in the blind It's very visual. This is great. Theater of the Blade. I am Astar, a robot. I can put my arm back on. You can't. So play safe.

So I thought about that one. That's exactly what I thought about Cam. Then I thought about this one. Tell me if you guys remember this PSA. It kind of haunted me for a while. I'm the sous chef here. With any luck, I should be head chef by next year. I've got this amazing fiancé.

Who I won't be marrying this weekend. Because I'm about to be in a terrible accident. Oh, God. But really, I should have cleaned up the grease over there, and they should never put the deep fryer so close. Oh. She died at work? What?

That's crazy. Jesus. What the fuck? Shout out to Ridley. I thought it was like a car accident. She had a deep fryer accident at work? Yeah, this is like, I don't know, 15 years ago or something. Clean up your oil? I've never seen that.

So she's like, she's giving you the future. She's saying that grease spill there that's really close to the deep fryer. Like, I'm going to slip on that and I'm going to fall into the deep fryer. And she like, yeah, she screams in agony, like burning. It's like about workplace safety. screams in agony, like burning. It's like about workplace safety. That's horrible. I know.

I know. I'm sorry. But this one will take the taste out of your mouth a bit. Tell me if you guys. And you too, sisters. Let's talk about something that's a real brain twister. Drugs, drugs, drugs. We try to do this. We try to do that.

Drugs, drugs, drugs. Ask your mom or ask your dad. Do you guys remember this one? Sorry, we were just watching the grease fire. Oh, you found it. Yeah, nightmare fuel, as Andy said. Like RoboCop. Yeah, yeah. I remember this Drugs, Drugs, Drugs. I was actually in a PSA. Which one?

Stay Alert, Stay Safe with Bert and Gert, the rabbits that go around helping kids don't do drugs and don't take candy from strangers. There was a whole series of them. Did you do

It's Fun to Play in Exciting Places? I don't know. Was that you? Maybe. Drugs, Drugs, Drugs. There was also the one The Amputees.

The problem with this song, sorry, Cam, the problem with this song is that it's like sing-along and up-tempo fun. Yeah. It sounds like drugs are fun. Yeah. Right, right. It's like drugs, drugs, drugs.

Well, because some are good and some are bad or whatever. Cannabis is good. Can you talk about the key chain? You put it on your key chain and if you lose your keys... The War Amp. Well, no, This is more about farming. There are pictures of big combines and there's a song, They Can Hurt You.

Oh, shit. That sounds like Nightmare Fuel, too. They play it on Chex TV a lot. That's in Peterborough. Yeah, shout out to Andrew Stoughton. Drugs, drugs, drugs. Most are good, some are bad. Drugs, drugs. Okay, Stu, I'm worried now that you're going to think I'm moving too quickly,

but I'm ready to kick out some jams. Yeah, it's time. So if you get any thoughts or stories you want to share, look, I'm not going to interrupt you. I want to hear your stories. I miss you guys. Okay. I miss you like crazy.

The topic is songs about a mode of transportation. We played the Spadina bus for Jason Cuddy from Rush as an example of a transportation jam. Cam, anything you want to say before I kick out your first transportation jam? I will say, Stu just sang like three seconds of a song, which is really fucked up. I miss you like crazy. Because of what we're about to hear. I miss you like, you ready? What? Play the song wow okay coincidence the same wow

that's not my fun fact wait i miss you like crazy as natalie cole yeah holy fuck that's like really fucking weird. Like seconds away. This is in depth. Oh, this is not what I said. I know this song. Don't. Just don't.

I think that's going to be one of my fun facts, what you were about to say. Sounds like that other song. Yeah. Okay. Okay. Okay. I know. It sounds like that. I have Yeah. Okay, okay, okay. I know. It sounds like that. I have to just rush this in.

Wow, it's almost identical. No fun facts till Cam drains his swamp. Yeah. I want to get to the chorus so I can really get into this. Oh, wow. Wow. This is some move there it is type shit.

Slow ladies. I could see Coco be wearing something. I have not heard this song since it came out. You always do this. You trigger something in my brain. I like it. That's great stuff. I need the fun facts so I can talk about that. I'm just going to say.

This is some whoop there it is, whoop there it is type stuff. Well, I was going to say, Mike, we talk about the Mandela effect. Yeah. I've heard of it. This is like Berenstain Bears. Berenstain Bears. Like a lot of people, according to Wikipedia, think this is Aretha Franklin. Yeah.

Because she has the other song. Pink Cadillac. No. Her song is called We Go and Run. We go and run on the freeway. Want love in a pink Cadillac. Yeah, that's why. That's it.

Okay, so those are different songs. Totally not. So this is Pink Cadillac, of course, Natalie Cole, daughter of the late. I thought Pink Cadillac was the name of the Aretha Franklin song up until this second. It's all on Wikipedia, so you're both here not alone. The mic is Cam's, but then we get a chance to respond. Did we know... I just learned this, like,

yesterday, that this was written by Bruce Springsteen. I did not know that. This is a crazy opening. This is the best lead-off that Cam has ever had in the history of the show. So this song originally was the B-ide for Dancing in the Dark

by Bruce Springsteen. So there's a Bruce version recorded? And you can hear it. It's like that's totally Bruce Springsteen's song. Yeah, did you have that? This is Bruce's? I totally, yeah! And now I remember this.

Holy sheez This is crazy Wow This is a lead off home run I think it's Oh like just all these fun facts You blew your load real early Wow Blew your load real early.

Wow. I love you for your pink Cadillac. Yes, this is the best of the three, by the way. Much better song. This is my best of the three, by the way. Much better song. This is my best of the three. I need to hear it now to see it's different. I like seeing Aretha Franklin dance in this video. Like, this is a real bop.

Like, it's just a feel-good jam. This is like another one of those... We're going, man! Yes. It's probably... That's probably Clarence. That's probably Clarence. That's Clarence, yeah. I'm looking at him.

Big man. I bet you Bruce Springsteen has something to do with this song. You should look up who wrote this song. Yeah, wait a minute. That's right. He's an E Street band member

in... I'm looking at him. Oh, Aretha is so much better than Natalie. Oh, yeah. Natalie Cole is like the Kirkland brand version. Yes.

Oh, wow. There you go. Rest in peace, right? This guy is busy. Who? Natalie Cole? Yeah, shout out to Ridley Peterholm. Okay, well, so is Aretha right? This guy is pissy. Who? Natalie Cole? Yeah, shout out to Ridley Peterholm. Okay, well, so is Aretha Franklin.

This is great. You know what? I'll never forget the day Aretha died. Can we look up the writing credits on this song? Molly Johns. Want me to do it? I'll do it. What's this song called?

The Freeway of Love? This is called Freeway of Love by Aretha Franklin. And by the way, it's the Kensington Jazz Festival this weekend, which is what you and Molly got the big fight in. Yeah, but yes, you're right. But she's not involved. Here, turn it up. Well, there's an interview. Jeffrey Cohen.

Is that like Trump's lawyer? Yeah, it's definitely not written by Bruce. It is a different song as I listen to it. Like, it is a different song. It's maybe a better song, but it's a different song. Clarence Clemons though Is the sax player Yeah I just looked at him Because I'm looking at the video

Right So Absolutely So this is Jeffrey Kitts Clarence Clemons has a son Yeah No

He has a nephew I don't think so That's not his son That's his nephew His nephew has been in this basement I know I'm throwing batting practice here I thought that was his son

It's not a kid Being Hector Torres So this song It's just another This that was his son. It's not a kid. Being Hector Torres. So this song, it's just another, this one would have qualified too. It's about a joyride in a pink Cadillac. But did it have to have like a mode of transportation in the title? I would say so. That's how I did it. Let's see how Mike shits the bed on this one.

Anyway, a couple more fun facts. There's this, the Natalie Cole was actually not the first big cover version. Ben Midler had a version in 1983. Oh, yeah. So five years. Other famous cover versions by Jerry Lee Lewis and Carl Perkins. Very late career albums. And I never like did the math.

I was probably too young when this came out. This was 1988. This, by the way, went to number five in the US, number four in Canada. Pink Cadillac innuendo for vagina. Oh, yeah. Really? I love you for your pink Cadillac. It's like, of course.

Oh, yeah, this is still Bruce. I did not know that. Pink Cadillac. There you go. It's like anatomy. You know, in hindsight, I think cars are often used as like euphemisms. Did you guys know, though, that I reported a version? Strap your legs around my engines. And like trains are often the same thing, right?

Train in the tunnel of love and all these things, right? But yeah, when I was a kid, I didn't think about it. But for sure, it's a vagina. I covered this song as well. Imagine. Did you really? I believed him's a vagina. I covered this song as well. Imagine. Did you really? I believed him for a minute. I could see him and Coolio, the late great,

doing a duet on Pink Cadillac. You know, Cam, we should shut this fucking... Okay, put it underneath. What is this, like a battery issue? Okay, Vldy at the plate. Tying run. Give us play-by-play. This is like the first song that we've heard.

We've played twice. Like, you run it back. Have we heard this before? And then I went to Aretha Franklin. Shout out to the vagina bust. Vladimir Guerrero at the plate. That's good. The Shuffle Demons.uffles hit first and second.

If the Blue Jays win tonight, they clinch a playoff berth. The problem is this is slow because people were talking about Judge hitting 61. It's okay. Just ignore that. I'm going to put this away. That's how I get with my Bell 5. It's a Bell streamer, so it's using this Chromecast backend. I see on Twitter, home run, and I wait seven seconds for the ball to be hit. All right.

Well, we've got stuff to get to. Yeah. Okay. Okay. I think we can bring it down. Great song, Cam. Yeah. Great start, Cam.

Normally, you're kind of weak with your... That was your best opening. This is... You were Aaron Judge leading off. Normally, you're like May Lee leading off. If you think this is one of Cam's best opening songs, press one in the chat room. Okay, I want to swap in Pavement, Heaven is a Truck for my next one.

Let's see if we get any ones. Are you guys ready for my first jam? I can't top that, but I'm just going to kick out my jam. You ready? Yeah. All right. There you go. This was like one of my earliest favorite songs

People just don't do this anymore Geez Peace. Bicycle, bicycle, bicycle. I want to ride my bicycle. Bicycle, bicycle, bicycle. I want to ride my bicycle. Okay. It's just like such a crisp producer. It's just, this is just so good. Great jam.

This is called Bicycle Race. This is a song by Queen. Great jam. This is called Bicycle Race. This is a song by Queen. Double play. Released in 1978. It was on their album Jazz. Freddie Mercury wrote this. He was apparently

watching the 18th stage of the Tour de France. Shout out to Craftwork. Craftwork. Craftwork. He's watching the 18th stage passing Montreux and then he writes Bicycle Race.

This was actually a double A-side single. Can you guys name the song on the other side of the single? Bohemian Rhapsody. Good guess, but no. Oh, and I like this. I like the bell chorus.

Are all of your songs going to be bicycle jams? Why don't you let me kick out my fucking jams, too, and then you can... Somebody to love, somebody to love. Good guess, good guess. We Will Rock You. That was an 80s song, I think. Fat Bottom Girls.

No, that's a 70s song. What's with that? Dude, this is like a fish song. This is like prog rock. So this song was a UK hit, number 11, but it was a number 24 hit in the USA. As a cycling advocate, I'm no bicycle mayor, but as a cycling advocate and daily rider,

I believe this to be the greatest of all the bicycle jams. I have said so. You'd be hard-pressed to find a better bicycle jam. Did we hear Pink Floyd bike? I feel like we've heard that online. I don't think so. I considered it. Tonight's young.

So the funny thing about this double A-side single by Queen is that Bicycle Race makes a reference to Fat Bottom Girls, and Fat Bottom Girls makes a reference to Bicycle Race makes a reference to Fat Bottom Girls and Fat Bottom Girls makes a reference to Bicycle Race. Really? This is, of course, to shout out the members of Queen, Freddie Mercury, Brian May on guitar, Roger Taylor on drums

and, of course, John Deacon on bass guitar. A little mind blow, I suppose. I'm going to play a little bit of a song by Skylar Grey featuring some guy named Eminem. line blow, I suppose. I'm going to play a little bit of a song by Skylar Gray featuring some guy named Eminem. A little taste of this song called Let Me Ride.

Wait for it. I've never heard this. If you got a sweet tooth I've never heard this. Like all the bitches can You can have all this boy And there's only one thing that I want from you Come on, let me ride your bicycle You're fantastic, oh How is this a fun song? It's coming. It hasn't come in yet. It comes in soon.

Okay, I thought it came sooner. Just bear with me here. Why do you listen to this music? Is this what you listen to on your bike? This is a fun song. I kind of like this. Is this like when you're pedaling down the Gardner? You're listening to this?

Hey, what's up, guys? They drive up to Foster Hewitt's. Oh, there you go. It samples that song. That sounds like it's Marshall singing. It is. And he has a verse coming up. I'll put it down in the mix here.

It sounded like the drunk guy on The Simpsons. I thought it sounded a bit like Pee Wee Herman. Yes. Him too. The drunk guy's name is Barney, by the way. I don't watch it. I love that show. Never seen it. I'm waiting to see if Marshall Mathers wants to come in

before I kill it. Just to hear a little bit but this is from 2012 if you're looking for it it's a fun little mind blow fun fact who's this? Skylar Gray who had a moment she did these coming home

she did a moment I'm coming home I think that's her here comes Eminem here I'm coming home. That's not her. I'm coming home. That's her. I'm coming home. I think that's her. Here comes Eminem here. Okay, it's a long way for Eminem. They make you really work hard for it. Anyways, I'll kill it because Stu, you know, Stu.

You know, she tried her best. She tried her best. You know, she tried her best. She tried her best. My wheels. That's funny. All right, there you go. That was a good line. There you go. Yeah, you know.

He's like condoms and Allen Iverson, he skips practice, meaning he doesn't use condoms. Right. Right. All right. Any words of wisdom before your first jam? I would say 1997, 98, 99, Eminem. If you played him that song and you said, this is where it's going.

And that's 2012. What would he have said? I don't know what he would have said. He'd say, oh, I'm still rapping at 40. Maybe, maybe. I'm not hating on Marshall. You know, he's no Stu Stone. No.

He's trying out there. That's pre-Rap God, though. Listen, I want to just say something real quick. If you guys are listening to the show live, hit the old one button because this is going to be big. This is going to be big. Oh, boy. And I really want to set this up properly because

It is big. We spent a lot of time praising Camberley on his great at-bat. You gotta really think it like. I don't know if people are listening because I'm not seeing any ones. We may be off the air, Mike. There's five ones here. Oh, you do? Yeah.

I guess I'm behind. Yeah. I'm going to refresh. There are several ones in the chat. Ian Service, Andy, YYC Gore, Tobias Ball, and Greg. Greg is there. Cable Guy Jeff. Okay.

Shout out to Greg. Here's what I got to say then. Cam started us off real big. He had a great lead off. Then Mike came in and he did pretty good. Yeah, that was a great song. I did my best. But I'm saying like the great Stu Stone who wins every episode he's ever been on.

Hall of Fame. Even when Cam comes out the gate swinging with his best effort of his career. Yeah. Well, Mike pointed out most of my songs are shit. It's so easy for me to read. Remember how bad they were last month? They were so shit.

I'm saying Cam's very best performance of his career. And I hate to do this to him. I hate to beat him when he's done so good. Because Cam, I was so proud of you. But I'm going to have to just win the round by playing this. Okay. It's over.

It's over. That's it. It's over. Go home. Stop the music. See you later, Cam. Stop the rock and roll. Thanks. And that's... It's a great Go home. Stop the music. See you later, Cam. Stop the rock and roll. Thanks.

And that. It's a great, great song. I think it's like one of those two verses before I get to the chorus songs. Yep. Thank you to the brothers. The Vanelli brothers. I'm prepared to teach you new things about this song that you don't even know, Mike. I know. But we've got to get to the chorus.

Hold on, here we go. Look better in the shade. So for people who are of my age group, this would have been the Gino Vannelli song that we know. Black Cars. It has this vibe of like David Bowie's Let's Dance album comebacks. This is just like cool. The production is crisp. It's modern.

It still holds up today, even though it's from the 80s. It still sounds cool. It's probably one of the best produced Canadian songs or period it's just a really great song it sounds like all electronics is it better than Sunglasses at Night

by Corey Hart different I think this might be it's different it's hard to compare similar theme it's apples to oranges but I'll say that

this is just a very well produced song and it holds up and it just sounds like as good as any of the American music that was going on. Anyway, I'm going to stop praising it. It's a real family affair there. We already know that. Never stop praising it. The Vannelli brothers.

Yeah, both been in this basement. He was nominated for the Juno Award for this, an award he won in 79. We know all of that. Well-deserved. That was, I don't, I just want to stop. Yeah, we'll get to that. So Black Cars came out in 85. It did chart in the United States.

Okay, how did it chart? Where did it go? It feels like these are things that you should know, because Black Cars, Gino Vannelli is so synonymous with this show because of your harassment of Gino Vanelli. May I take a minute and then get back to your fun facts here? Sure. If you don't mind, I'd like to just let people know

why does Black Cars have anything to do with Trotter Mike? Sure. Ask me the question. I was going to actually, because I tried to go in chronological order here. The sun goes down on the Arizona plain. The wind whistles by like a runaway train. It's a beautiful thing.

It's me and you in a flatbed. I was doing like a cool version of it. It's a wild horse. I know. I have that teed up. a cool version of it. This is Wild Horses. I know. I have that teed up. In the middle of spring. Now, what did you want to know? I want to know if you, at the time, regarded Black Cars as any sort of,

I joke that it's still called a comeback. Can we get off Black Cars? My God. There's only half an hour more on Black Cars, people. We can move on to another cut. Third rail talk. I hour more on black cars. We can move on to another cut. Third rail talk. I got more black cars questions. You know what?

You're breaking my heart, Gino. Can we get off black cars? I'm going to wake up in the middle of the night tonight in a cold sweat. Did Gino really say that? You remind me of my parish priest. Get off of it, I said. Wow, he was working blue with that. That's a good line, right? That's a good line. All right, go ahead. So black cars, first's a, he was working blue with that. That's a good line,

right? That's a good line. All right, go ahead. So black cars, first of all, they do look better in the shade. I own a black car and you can see the dirt on the car.

Very clear. Like black cars get dirty. Very, you notice the dirt. So the fact that he says black cars look better in the shade, that's actually true. So shout out to Gino for that one. Uh,

so it charted at number 42 in the united states how about in canada i think it's a big hit in canada because it was a cftr smash i'm gonna say uh number four number four is correct nailed it uh so the gino vanelli comeback tour begins and so much so that he gets another album and wild horses which we just heard which is also a really good song wild horses is on the black cars out no how sure are you about well it says black cars came out in 85 and wild horses came out in 87 so that's an emotion away so wild horses is the next is the next album up now wild horses what that what that charted in the United States as well. Number 55.

So black cars did better in the shade. And then how did it do in Canada? Seven. It did do number seven. You know your Gino Vannelli. You know your Gino Vannelli. When you look a man in the eyes, you know him. Although more countries, wild horses charted in more countries than Black Cars.

Black Cars was a bigger hit. His number one. Well, you went to Mind Blow. His biggest hit was I Just Want to Stop, which was what number in Canada? Number one. Number one. And what number in the United States? One.

Number four. Four. Here is something interesting about Black Cars now. Are you ready? Okay, now I'm ready. Can we get off Black Cars already? One of the backup singers on Black Cars now. Are you ready? Okay, now I'm ready. Can we get off Black Cars already? One of the backup singers on Black Cars. Her name is Lori Lieberman.

I wish her a happy new year. I'm assuming she celebrated Rosh Hashanah this week with a name like that. Not to speculate, but I'm sure 1236 would agree. Lori Lieberman. You can speculate. Sounds like she might be somebody that ate chopped liver on Monday. Does she want to go to the cgn.ca? The fun fact is not that she's potentially a Yom Kippur observer.

Lori Lieberman was an artist in her own right who was the first ever artist to record Killing Me Softly with his song. Whoa. Roberta Flack. Before Roberta Flack, Lori Lieberman recorded the song. And then Lori Lieberman years later goes and records Black Cups.

I bet you anything that's in that episode of Gino and I forgot, but that is remarkable. So I just gave you some mind blow on a song that is so synonymous with your show. And I just won that round by playing Gino Vannelli's Black Cars, which by the way is my favorite Gino Vanelli song. Oh, mine too, buddy.

That's why I got in trouble because I wanted to spend 90 minutes on it. I feel like Gino was here before our collective Tane obsession started, but he's a pretty big omission not in that chorus of Northern Light. He should have been there. Maybe he was on a... He's probably touring in Europe because he's a pretty big omission not in that chorus of Northern Light. No, you're absolutely right.

He should have been there. Maybe he bailed. He's probably touring in Europe because he's a big star globally. So if you guys think that I won that round, give me a hell yeah. What did you think of Dan Hill, Cam, now that I realize it's been so long

that you've been here? Yeah, I thought he was very real. You've had some legends on your show lately. You've really been stepping it up there, Micah. Thanks, buddy. Thanks, buddy. That was a good lesson. Enjoy that. It's tough to do. And John Biner has been on the show since I came here. That I it up there, Micah. Thanks, buddy. That was a good lesson. Enjoyed it.

And John Beiner has been on the show since I came here. That I know. Now, I'll tell you what. It's interesting that you've done 10 hundred and how many? 40? This is 1120. 1120. And you're still, you know, 1120, Kim. And you're still finding new guests that you haven't had on you.

Almost every Canadian has been on this show. Like when I said to PJ Phil, do you know Toronto? I didn't even have to say Mike. He's like, Mike Boone, I love Booney. You know, he's like, is he still wearing those pants? That's right. Thank you.

There's a lot of, like Jane Hodden was just here yesterday. And Jane's somebody who was there from the beginning of Q107 and she's one of those people. What are the updates about Sue Johansson, by the way? Uh, I don't, okay.

I don't know if I'm allowed to, I let's just say she's old. I can say that that's public record, right? Oh, what happens to you're upset. It's just making more errors, giving up.

That's like, like last night. Right, right, right. Okay. Uh, we're going to make the playoffs.

Hang in there. Okay. So, anyways, she's elderly, and she's probably not going to be making any promo appearances with this dog coming. Gotcha. I can't wait to see it. She's not coming on Toronto, Mike.

Let's put it that way. Jay's had a chance to clinch with a win against a Yankees team that was partying last night after clinching themselves, playing a lineup that didn't include most of their stars, and we're losing 8-3 here. I don't want to say 1987. I don't. We're going to make the playoffs.

Okay. Because in 87, they lost every game down the stretch. Kikuchi's in. And blew it. Yeah. That can't happen because my boy Ross, he did too good of a job here. Oh, yeah.

You've been hanging with Ross, right? Yes. Is that a public? Will we talk about that? Okay. We're talking about Ross from Friends. Ross is the real name. No.

Is it Russ? What's the real name of Weston? Ross Weston. Is that Russ? Ross Jackson. Okay. Apparently, 1236 is going to read his book and review it on Toronto Mic. I'm not talking about 1987 or 1967.

Dude, we're going to make the playoffs. I'm going to guarantee it right now. It's a hardcore game. These guys need to clean it up a little bit. Let's be honest, Hebsey. These guys need to clean it up on defense. They need to stop panicking and getting those yips. They need to just take a deep breath.

They need to meditate. They need to just take a deep breath. They need to meditate. They need to remember why they got here. They need to pull it together, guys, because you are the best. You're the third best record in the league. You're not schmucks. Clean it up, and let's play some winning baseball. You know what I would do in the offseason?

I would move one of the outfielders and move Bo Bichette to left field. That guy cannot be in the infield. I'm sorry. Or he's young, and he's just going to get better. One of the outfielders and move like Bo Bichette to left field. Like that guy cannot be in the infield. I'm sorry. Or he's young and he's just going to get better. One of the two. Yeah. He's 23 or something.

I know. I know. He's just a pup, but some of these errors, like the one last night. If you remember young players coming up, it takes a while. I get it.

Again, Vlad. Remember how long it took Eddie Zosky to get comfortable? It's just about taking a deep breath, man. Not panicking when you get... You have to stop thinking about all the brick-brack. Oh, I mean, he's like leaning the league in hits.

And total bases. Yeah, it's no joke. Mike, let's keep it moving. This one, I actually don't have any notes. I actually just want to speak about this artist in general because I feel like we haven't talked much about this person. All right, let's kick it. But is this about a car or a driver of a car?

It's about a cab. It's about a guy who drives a car, but it's not about the car. He's in the cab. The question is, is this song about a mode of transportation? I think it's about the guy that drives a mode of transportation. It's about a racist cab driver, not a racist cab. But can you separate the driver from his automobile when he's a cab driver? By the way, it's a great song.

the driver from his automobile when he's a cab driver. By the way, it's a great song. I think Lenny Kravitz doesn't get his roses from people because they think he's a copy of this or that. I think he's great. I think he gets lots of roses. I think he's super fucking popular. He's sexy. He's sexy as hell.

We're burying the lead here. Did you know he's also much like Laura Lieberman? He's of the Jewish faith? He could be. It's possible that he was eating Krebloch soup on Monday. He was. He was. Talk to me. Oh, let's hear this great part here.

Yeah, man. You have to wait a bit. This is a great fucking song. This is one of the first songs I remember that was like a mainstream song where the F word was in it. Yeah. It was pretty edgy at the time. Got him on MTV and Much Music probably. I saw this.

Dissin' Rosemary and Let Love Rule. That's a good album. Let Love Rule is the first Lenny Kravitz song I ever heard. Mr. Cab Driver Reads too many storybooks Mr. Cab Driver Blasts me up with eyes of fire Go, go, go, go Blue Jays Mr. Cab Driver Thinks we're all 165ers

Mr. Cab Driver, fuck you. I'm a survivor. There you go. But they did not say fuck you on much music. No. It was like, Mr. Cab Driver, forget you. I'm a survivor. Forget you and forget you too.

Okay, Cam, tell us. You know what forget you is from? Forget you is a breakfast club like TV version. It's like, no, dad,. You know what Forget You's from? Forget You is a breakfast club like TV version. It's like, no, dad, what about you? Forget you. That's exactly right. Oh. I didn't really write any facts because there's...

You want to talk about Lenny? Cambrio, I agree. Lenny Kravitz's American Woman is not good. You know what's okay? Lenny Kravitz's American Woman is not good, but it's like Mozart compared to Madonna's American Pie. Yeah. Also bad. Both are bad, though.

That's comparing horse shit to horse shit. Also, the song Fly Away by Lenny Kravitz is a steaming nugget of shit. It got a little lazy towards the end. But so many great songs. First three albums are good. Tons of great songs. Maybe first two and a half albums. But this might be his greatest song.

You know what song I thought might be? It's good. Okay. Stu said he had never heard Pink Cadillac for like 20 years. I had a moment with the Lenny Kravitz song while I was doing research for this. Was it Let Love Rule? No, the song Believe. Oh, I love that song. If you want it,

you got it. Yeah, that was a big high school jam. Totally. Good video, like he's in a spaceship and stuff. I think the biggest high school jam from Lenny was Are You Gonna Go My Way. That's a sick jam too. It ain't over until...

And that was also the tour where Blind Melon opened for him at the Maple Leaf Gardens and then the guy died. Shannon Hoon. Okay, I got two more

Lenny Kravitz fun facts. Do you guys remember a single called Dig In? No. It was a late career single. Sing it. Dig in. It was a late career single. Sing it. Dig in. It's like riff rock.

He was going to break riff rock. So that single came out in 2001. He was preparing to do a video for that song. And right around this time in 2001, they had a scheduled shoot on the roof of the Twin Towers on September 12th, 2001. Is that right? Yeah.

And it got canceled just the day before. They had to cancel that. Do you know who the last artists were that filmed something on the roof of the Twin Towers? Guns N' Roses. Is it musicians? It is musicians. Molly Crew. Cruelio.

Limp Bizkit. Roll and roll and roll and roll. Really? They're on top of the World Trade Center. There's that great documentary where the guy does the wire. Man on wire. Man on wire. That's what it's called. It's really good.

And final fun fact, and I'm going to wedge in the Esri geography corner here. Also, do you remember Spider-Man's trailer had this Twin Towers in it, and then they had to scrub it out of the movie. Ian Servers, he's never tried matzo ball soup. Can Trudy hook him up? Yes. One last thing on the Twin Towers and back to you, Cam. The Sopranos.

When Tony Soprano is driving from New Jersey or whatever, you see the Twin Towers in the background. Listening to Leonard Cohen. They had to reshoot it without. Oh, like they took the... After the towers fell, there was no longer...

You saw the skyline without the towers. There's a clip that was playing recently on Twitter, which is a great app. Great service. It's all right. No, it is great. But when the day of the Twin Towers collapsed, but you know what happened that whole time.

September 11th, 2001. So like Donald Trump is getting interviewed as the wreckage is, you know, the tower just went down and Donald Trump. He says, my building is now the tallest building. He's like, well, now my building is the tallest building. What a fucking asshole. It's like.

It's pretty on brand. It's like, wow. It is on brand. That's incredible that he would even say that out loud. He says it loud. His mind went. He says the inside thing out loud. And you were upset at me for being excited about Coolio passing.

He was like, well, now my building is the biggest in New York. Okay. Fuck that guy. Anyway, Ezra Geography Corner, Lenny Kravitz grew up in New York City, went to school called PS6, the Lily Devereaux Blake School. This is a public school in the Upper East Side. No relation to Blanche Devereaux. Here's four of their famous alumni.

She was horny. Speaking of horny. Who was hornier? Blanche from Golden Girls, Kim? Honest answer. Blanche from Golden Girls. Or Mona. Who was hornier? I'm going to say Mona say Mona was really horny.

Mona was pretty horny for Tony. Do you think Mona rode that pony? Tony's pony. You know, went to the same high school. Same grade school as Lank Rabbits. We got Chevy Chase. He's a bit of a dink.

We got William Hurt. He's passed now. He's a bit of a dink. We got William Hurt. Oh, he's a bit of a... He's passed now. He was canceled. Here's a big name, J.D. Salinger. Wow. Wow. There you go. And then last but not least, we got Phoebe Cates.

Oh. She married Kevin Kline. Phoebe Cates did, really. Wasn't she in the movie with Chevy Chase? Or no? She was in Fast Times at Ridgemont High. Oh, that's what it is. Was she in Gremlins? I want to say.

Yeah, she was in Gremlins. She was like, Brooke Shields and her were like, sort of like the it girls. That scene in Fast Times at Ridgemont High, man, if you could tell on a DVD what part it got. Pause buttons were worn out across. Let me in! That's a great, you know what?

That's a great movie, Fast Times at Ridgemont High. Never seen it. Never heard of it. Cameron Crowe wrote it, I think. But it's fantastic. There you go. It really is strong. It's like Forrest Whitaker in that?

Yep. Okay. Sean Penn's in that. Nicolas Cage has a little role in that as Nicolas Coppola. Ooh. You know, who his uncle is. Of course. Yes.

Royalty. Oh, I mean, great, great, Of course. Yes. Royalty. Oh, I mean, great, great, great movie. Okay. Late great movies.

Yeah, it's 50 years ago today. 50 years ago today, City TV debuted. Is that true? Is that why you brought us here to do a deep dive? No,

I'm working, well, me and the VP of sales are working on a Mikeumentary. Well, yeah, I guess,

but we're going to do a Mikeumentary. Gord. Well, he's going to be on my Mikeumentary. Well, yeah, I guess. But we're going to do a Mikeumentary. Gord. Well, he's going to be on my Mikeumentary. He came over here. Gord's been here. He's not just on Faking a Murderer. He's also been on Toronto Mike. Do we share him in comment? That's for sure. I'm trying to fix him up with my mom. Okay, he's handsome. He's got the deep blue eyes. But remember

what Ann Ruskowski said. He might not, I hope he treats Judy well. Oh, really? Is he a jerk? You haven't heard Ann Ruskowski said. He might not, he don't know if he, I hope he treats Trudy well. Oh, really? Is he a jerk? You haven't heard Ann Ruskowski in Toronto, Mike? No. I'm hurt. Well, I went to dinner with her. She didn't mention it to me. Yes. I've seen the reels. Don't pull up the clip. Oh, Stu's mom.

I'm listening. Okay. Well, Stu's mom, this is for you. Listen to the, yeah, she's funny, right? She's good. she's good she's like I'm in the room Trudy I'm right here

I was trying to fix her up with Gord don't cock block Gord I'm not cock blocking Gord okay Trudy's beautiful good luck to Gord he's got the deep blue eyes

but listen to the first Ann Morskowski episode of Charlie Mag it sounds like don't to hear how Gord treated her when they worked closely together

for five years well that's because that's how the business was. Well, let Trudy make her own... So the COVID, the what, and the whom. Was Gord a jerk to her? That's part two. Was Gord a jerk to her?

Big time. Big time. But you still like Gord? I like Gord. I don't like that he treated Anne so poorly. But did you hear his side of the story? Did you ask him about it? I literally sat on there.

So what did you say? So what did he say? He said, that's ridiculous. Yeah, see? So do you believe Gord? I believe Anne. But you, Stu, need to listen. I will.

To these episodes. I'm not disputing what happened. I don't know the details. Listen to Anne's first episode. Mom, don't date Gord. It's over. That's it. It's over. There's lots of good G. Mom, don't date Gord. It's over. That's it. It's over.

There's lots of good Gords out there. There's Gord in Shumway. There's a lot of Gord in Lightfoot still around. Gord in Sinclair is a possibility. Yeah, there's a lot of good Gords out there. Gord Lewis. Okay. Oh, he's passed away.

I'm sorry to hear that about Gord. A lot of Gords have passed away recently. So you got Puppet. You got Dead Guy. Be careful, YYZ. Be careful. So when you asked Gord about A lot of Gords have passed away recently. So you got Puppet, you got Dead Guy. Be careful, YYZ. So when you asked Gord about it, he said that it was not true. I played Ann Roszkowski's clip

talking about how Gord literally didn't speak to her unless the red light was on for years. And he kind of went, I don't think he saw it coming, first of all. And then he was like, well, that's ridiculous. We were busy, lots going on and stuff. He kind of downplayed it. Well, I don't so don't you think maybe like so you think he's a

liar i'm telling you as a guy you talk to gordon and i believe and so i hear you i guess you have to make those decisions i'll have to listen i'm sorry that he treated her like that hopefully he's gotten improved in life because he treated me very well uh Yeah, but there's a lot of, I can put it on the show right now, that will tell you that John Derringer was a sweetheart to him. The nicest guy you'd ever want to meet. But then I could put Colleen Rush home on the mic, which will tell you what he did to her and said to her for so many years. Right, it's tough because people are assholes.

People can turn, like, Who are you talking to? Maybe when I shut this mic off and you meet me on the street, maybe I'm a fucking asshole. Maybe I'm just kind of an asshole on the mic. I hate to hear how I sound off the mic. I feel kind of sick now trying to set my mom up with somebody that you're saying is a monster. He didn't beat her up.

He just didn't talk to her. You're making it sound like he's a monster. No, he didn't talk to her at all. Is he a monster? I don't know if that makes you a monster. No, he didn't talk to her at all. Is he a monster? I don't know if that makes you a monster. It just makes you a shitty colleague. So is he a monster? Cam's like, we're finished with the... Is he a monster, Cam?

I don't know. I don't know Gord Martin, though. We are connected on LinkedIn, though. Is he a monster? No, he's not a monster. He's a great guy. He's great to you. He was not great to Ann Ruskowski. I'm sorry, Ann. He's great to you. He was not great to Ann Ruskowski. I'm sorry, Ann. He was great to me. I had a great experience with him, but I also know that

Ann Ruskowski had a horrible experience with him. I mean, and there is footage of Gord working blue. Yeah, you fucking bent, right? Also, the Rock Voisin homophobic comment. Yeah, but a lot of homophobia in those comments, and I'm not here to judge anybody. What, Rock Voisin homophobic comments. What are you talking about? Yeah, but a lot of homophobia in those comments

and I'm not here to judge anybody. What? Rock Voisin is a monster? No. This is blowing my mind. Okay, this is... I think we need to move along. We need to move on.

You guys ready for my second jam? Yes. Always. All right. I hope you erase all of that conversation. Nothing gets erased, but you do know

that this episode of Ann Muskowski and Toronto Mike is sitting there waiting for you to listen to it. I can't wait to hear it. Just spend some time. By the way, it's a fucking great episode. It's one of the all-time great Toronto Mic episodes.

It is. Good lesson. It's off the charts amazing because Ann Roszkowski is amazing. I feel like that's one of your signature episodes. Yeah, you know what? You guys, you know, Gino, we mentioned all the greats today. Molly, Gino, and Ann. Those are your three.

Aaron Davis. Aaron Davis is Steve Paikin's favorite of all time. Oh, Strombo is great. Yeah. I like my first Stu Stone episode. That's one of my favorites. Okay. It was okay.

Here's my second jam, everybody. Jay's Magic Numbers 1. Ooh. I rode my bicycle past your window last night. I roller skated to your door at daylight. It almost seems like you're avoiding me. I'm okay alone, but you got something I need. Well, I got a brand new pair of roller skates. You got a brand new key. Okay, everybody. This is Melanie. I got a brand new pair of roller skates. You got a brand new key. Okay, everybody. This is Melanie.

It's kind of like a circus vibe to it. Like oompa. It's a bit of like a novelty style song, to be honest. But she's a... Fun fact about Melanie Safka as her real name. She played Woodstock. I was going to say it, but then I figured that would be one of your fun talks. She played Woodstock. I was going to say it, but then I figured that would be one of your fun talks. She played Woodstock. So this is from her album Gather Me.

And it was... Often people say, oh, it's the roller skate songs. It's about roller skating. But it's called Brand New Key. Do we know, did she play this at Woodstock? No. This song is written after Woodstock. You know who I get Melanie

mixed up with? Lulu. Oh. Probably who did To Sir With Love. Oh yeah. Okay, okay. Right, because they're women names. Right. So this went to number one on the Billboard Hot 100 charts. That's back in 1971. December

1971. Okay. Yeah. It doesn't seem like a 60s song. It's a 70s song, number one. A lot of people think there's these Freudian sexual innuendos in there, much like Pink Cadillac is about a vagina. Right. Melanie claims no.

She claims it's just about an old 1930s type tune where she has a key and a lock, and she says these symbols were meant very innocently. But you can, you know, if you have a brand new pair of roller skates and I got a brand new key, sounds pretty Blue Hotel to me. You know what I'm talking about? We'll never know. This song is prominently featured in the movie Boogie Nights with Roller Girl.

Right. It's about roller skating. Is Melanie still with us? Melanie is still with us, yes, and she still comes to town periodically. This song is featured, I don't know if either of you two have seen the new season of Kids in the Hall,

the 2022 Kids in the Hall revival series. Did any of you guys watch it? No. Okay, well, there's a fantastic skit with an apocalypse DJ played by Dave Foley. YYZ Gord is a good Gord. Yeah, he's a good Gord. He's going to bed, though.

I just saw that he said it's late. He's a monster. He's going to bed. He's going to listen to the rest on demand here. But this is a great, it's featured in the new Kids in the Hall series. So if you've checked that out and you should, it's on Prime.

Love it. Then you'll hear a lot of Brand New Key by Melanie. Melanie is 75 years young. And this is ridiculous. Fun fact for you here. Is this Irish Rovers? No, but I think it's Cam. Did you hear this song when you were in Ireland last week? No, but I think... Cam, did you hear this song when you were in Ireland last week?

No. Who is it? It's like Chaz and Dave. This is the Wurzels. The Wurzels. It's called the Combine Harvester. Okay. It's like farming.

It's like kind of a Ray Stevens type joke. So it's a... Obviously it's like farming it's like a kind of ray stevens type joke so it's uh obviously it's a parody i got a brand new combine harvester wow so the world's old okay because he's the irish vaughn no he's not even a vaughn by the way this is the number one song no the number one song he says it was the number one song? No. The number one song. He says it was the number one. Was it? In Ireland, maybe? Combine Harvester? I think he's talking

about Brand New Key. What is he talking about? Let me go in there. He says, okay, so maybe in Ireland it was number one, but here it was not a... Yeah, in the UK.

Where did you find this song? Well, once I was reading up on Brand New Key, I learned about the Wurzel. It's 12.36 in here Says he is And I got a brand new Garvin Harvester Oh shout out to Leslie

Who has joined the live stream It's a late night but I think when the Jays game ended We picked up some steam You should do a retweet of your tweet And then people will see it. They're checking Twitter now. A lot of people are bummed out just going to bed here. These guys are contemporaries of Chaz and Dave.

Sort of silly pub rock. Okay. I take this jam. Okay, so I'll bring her down while Stu sets up his second jam. My second jam was, coincidentally, has a lot of fun facts around it. And the song was actually written after the artist fell asleep in the back of a 1964 pink... Cadillac. Mercury Montclair Marauder.

Close. The lyrics came to him... Is that a vagina too? Mercury Montclair Marauder. Close. The lyrics came to him in bits and pieces during this and other catnaps throughout the evening, and eventually he was able to finish the song without sleeping. Hopefully everyone's going to wake up when I play this song in round two victory. Mmm.

Mmm. Thank you, Gray Lakes. This beer is delicious. I'm loving it right now. Now here's the minuendo. Yeah. Woo. Leslie loves this

tune. So do I. Pocket full of horses. Trojans. I got a pocket, got a pocket full of horses, Trojans. I got a pocket full of sunshine. What a chorus. Too fast Little red Corvette You need a love that's gonna last Guess I should close my eyes

When you drove me to the place where you're from The second single from the Prince album, 1999. The second single, Mike. Because 1999 would have been the first single, right? Right. But this was the highest charting and first to reach the top ten in the United States, peaking at number six. Surprising. His first single.

I mean, 1999, that was a big song. This did better. Surprising. Of course, much like Prince's other music, after Purple Rain came out and Prince's popularity surged to historic heights, all of this music started charting again. Sure.

You know, it was like what was old was new again. In 1999, it kept coming back, and especially at the Y2K parties and whatnot. Totally. We all know that Prince passed away tragically In 1999, it kept coming back, and especially at the Y2K parties and whatnot. We all know that Prince passed away tragically. S-O-R-F-H. Shout out to Ridley Funeral Home. If my mother's still in here, she can attest to this.

The greatest concert that you could go to is Prince. Number one. A war horse of a performer. So why didn't I see him? A lot of brickbrack going on. It's nonstop fun. The merch. Cam, did you see him?

He starts and he does not stop for two and a half hours. And he's dancing. He's singing. He's playing guitar. He's doing it all in heels. It's remarkable. Are you allowed to look him in the eyes? Probably. But do you want some look him in the eyes? Probably.

But do you want some interesting stories about this song historically? Please. So the guitar solo. First of all, Prince. Lead vocals, backing vocals, lead guitar, bass guitar, synthesizers, electric drums, drum machine. Everything done by Prince. Except the guitar solo that you're hearing. Oh.

Oh. Let me guess. You won't guess. Somebody you're hearing. Oh. Oh. Let me guess. You won't guess. Somebody from Toto. No. First of all, the backup vocals are being sung by a female named Lisa Coleman. We'll get to her in a second. Okay. Is this Eddie Van Halen?

The gentleman's name is Des Dickerson. Okay. Des Dickerson. He, Prince is- Now think of this. Prince is such a prolific guitar player. How good must have Des Dickerson been

to get the guitar solo spot on a guy who did everything? Good point. He can't be better than Prince. It's like if Prince is a perfectionist that does everything, he's like, well, I'll just do it myself. He's like one of those kind of guys. How good must have Des Dickerson been to get the solo's like, well, I'll just do it myself. He's like one of those kind of guys. How good must have Des Dickerson

been to get the solo? Well, anyway, Des ends up joining Prince's band and playing with him and it turns into this whole fucking thing that he went home for Christmas holidays one year, found Jesus and never went back to Prince again. Oh, that's what happened to Little Richard.

Des Dickerson ends up becoming a major player in the Christian music scene after finding God, including releasing albums where the tagline for his label was where classic hymns meet classic rock. That's a good line. Here's the interesting part. He goes home. He finds Jesus.

Can't deal with Prince anymore. Interesting part. He goes home. He finds Jesus. Can't deal with Prince anymore. He is replaced in Prince's band by a female named Wendy Melvoin. Jonathan Melvoin. Who gets together and becomes... Melville is a good album.

Wendy and Lisa, who are famously Prince's... They had their own spin-off band. The two girls in Prince's band, Wendy and Lisa, who I was corrected upon when I didn't shout them out. Last time I played a Prince song, and I was like, oh, the backup singers are singing, and then 1236 was like, it's Wendy and Lisa, you jerk.

That's pretty good. So just so he knows, I shouted them out on this one. Can you do more white blood? No. Because it makes I just need an adrenaline rush.

He's in the chat. So two things. One is your mom is in the chat, Stu, and says loved his concert. Wendy and Lisa would also be in

Stu's Chopped Liver Club. That's good to know. Shabbat tovah to Wendy and Lisa. Apples and honey to them. Wendy and Lisa would also be in Stu's Chopped Liver Club So he was mad that I didn't mention them

Last time I played a song where they were featured So now I had to make sure to give them their roses Is this a rock song? Would we consider this rock music? Little Red Corvette? At the time maybe I would say so Would Q107 play this?

No. No. No, this would be... I hate it. They would use a slur. They wouldn't play it. Stu's Chopped Liver Club. I'm making t-shirts. Hey, Mark, who else is in Stu's Chopped Liver Club? Let me know

who else belongs in that club. I don't think we say The Tribe anymore. Just the chopped liver. By the way, coincidentally, the Prince show that I went to with my mommy was the last show at the LA Forum before they closed it down and then it ended up reopening years later. But he closed out the venue. Sounds like a great show.

I think he was the first show back too, but I don't want to speak out of school if that's not true. Wendy and Lisa. Well, shout out to Minnesota's own. Okay. The Prince. The purple one. back too but i don't i don't want to speak out of school if that's not true wendy and lisa well shout out to minnesota zone okay uh the prince the purple one great jam what's up liam did you oh you don't have a mind blow for that okay so let's get to the final round my mind blow was just that the whole way i'm in an audio mind no i'm sorry do you guys remember the smashing out on tour with the smashing pumpkins and their keyboard player died i do remember the smashing out on tour with the Smashing Pumpkins and their keyboard player died?

I do remember the keyboard player dying. Yeah, so that was Jonathan Melvoin, who was Wendy Melvoin's sister. That's wild. That's a mind blow. Just reading Wikipedia. They're the best stuff on here. Okay, good stuff. Now, Cam, what words

say you before I kick out your first mind? And I do And I have myself. I've got a jam that'll be kind of like a fun fact, mind blow, following this jam. Yeah, 1236 says Q107 will play some Prince now. No, now. I'm talking about back then. Now they'll play all the stuff they wouldn't play back then.

They played Duran Duran now. They wouldn't play Duran Duran back then. Right now. This was the first song I thought of when we had this topic. Okay, his first thought. Stu just produced a photo of him. Nice backyard. You got Vasco.

I want a ticket to anywhere. Maybe we make a deal. Maybe together we can get somewhere. Any place is better. Starting from zero, got nothing to lose. Maybe we'll make something. Me, myself, I got nothing to lose. Maybe we'll make something. Me, myself, I got nothing to prove. You got a fast car.

I got a plan to get us out of here. Been working at the convenience store. Managed to save just a little bit of money. Won't have to drive too far. Just cross the border and into the city. You and I can both get jobs and finally see what it means to be living.

Okay. Good stuff, Cameron. Yeah, and also good stuff. The Orioles lost and Tampa Bay just lost, which is good news. news that mean we clinch or magic numbers one fast car Tracy Chapman a number one

hit here in Canada Canada fuck off no more late night recordings we can't do this. It's too late. I like it. 10.45 p.m. I think it's great.

I just like barked. We're hanging on by a fucking thread here. No way, man. I'm having a blast. I need a nap. Number six in the U.S. This was nominated for Record of the Year at the 89 Grammys.

You know what it lost to? You should retweet the tweets. Can I guess? It's a great song, yes. Mark Cohn walking in Memphis. No, no. What year? 1989. You know what it lost to? You should retweet the tweets. Can I guess? Mark Cohn walking in Memphis. What year? 1989. 1989.

This is Graceland? This is a good guess. This is a classic. Don't Worry Be Happy. Like this fucking classic. Lost to fucking Don't Worry Be Happy. But that Don't Worry, Be Happy. Oh, my God. Like this fucking classic. Lost a fucking Don't Worry, Be Happy. But that Don't Worry, Be Happy, which is the only number one song, I think,

without any instrumentation. I could be wrong about that. Okay, that sounds right. But 1236 will do. Anyway, the other nominees are Your Man in the Mirror by Michael Jackson, another great song. I'm asking you to choose.

Roll With It by Steve Winwood. Of course. Kind of a forgettable song. No, that's a good song. Yeah, that's a good song. Yeah, that's a good song. And Giving You the Best that I Got by Anita Baker. Oh, I love that song. Yeah.

And I'm giving you the best that I got. Fast Car is the cream of that crop. Record of the year, that song, though? Yeah, I know. Like I Miss You Like Crazy? Should that be song of the year? I miss you like crazy. I will say this. No, but she did have song of the year? I miss you like crazy. I will say this.

No, but she did have a song of the year when she did that duet with her dad. Her dad was dead. Oh, Natalie Cole. Yeah. Unforgettable. Tracy Chapman's song. This Tracy Chapman song is interesting because listen to this song. For this to break through and become a commercial hit, you know what has to happen?

Magic has to happen. Totally. Because this is like a, this was an MTV hit. And listen to it. It's like a folk song in 1989. Of course. That's how good of a song it is.

Well, I will say the year before this was nominated for record of the year, the year before Luca by Susan Vega was nominated. Did you say the remix or the album version? What's the remix? Tom's Diner. Oh, that's Tom's Diner. My apologies.

I'm thinking of Tom's Diner. Stu's right. Edie Brickell. Yeah, New Bohemians. Who, by the way, was married to Paul Simon. Tracy Chapman, Susan Vega. Paul Simon apparently was a monster to her

is that true that's what that's what they say not surprised okay you remember Michelle Shocked yep

of course I'm at 1236 do you have any Michelle Shocked fun facts I think she's dead that's not a fun fact I don't think she's dead

no do you have any mind blows to do with this song I hope no really actually I have one you don't have any mind blows to do with this song? I hope. No. Really?

Actually, I have one. You don't have an audio clip? I do. I have. We've heard that before. I know,

but we're still doing it. There's Sunday Tear and Darker. I love this fucking song. They're playing in Toronto or they just

played in Toronto at some free concert. I love this album. Nice and free. They're playing in Toronto or they just played in Toronto at some free concert. I love this album. It's nice and smooth. They're so good. What a gem. Do they really play in Toronto?

Yeah, they just played recently. I wish I went. I'm calling this a top ten Zonda era. I love it. And I love the old, I'll put you in a rehab and I won't tell your folks. Then what do you know? That's a true line. Too much of anything makes you an addict.

It's true. You can be a coffee addict, a video game addict, a sex addict, whatever. Too much of anything makes you an addict, guys. Too much podcasting. I was on 125 in St. James. I love his delivery, too. They sound smooth. We couldn't play this at 8 o'clock.

This is a 1048 song. Maybe I should lick her with my 9mm. If we talk long enough, we can broadcast until 1236. We were inseparable. At least that's what I thought. And later, I fought with a substance. And almost ended up in Supreme Court. Supreme Court? That's a big...

Also, maybe I should lick her with my 9 millimeter is he saying i'm gonna kill her with my gun no maybe i should lick her with my nine millimeter what does that mean to you then i had to ask her what she's got a nine millimeter tongue yeah that's very fucking short or maybe he's like saying i wanted to kill her. Yeah, when she's done. Nine millimeters. Sorry, this is one that's away. Where is this Percy Park? Is that in... That's where the dogs are. No, that's by the iron side of that building.

The thin building, the iron one. That's near front. We should have gone to that show, but I was in Hamilton. It's a fountain with the dogs. Look at the life, like flavor. Wow. Big Daddy came. And it was free. Russell Peters put it on.

Was this the last month? When I left Massey Hall. Just for laughs, Russell Peters. Holy shit. Yeah, Bercy Park is right downtown there. Right near Massey Hall. Another good trauma-miked moment was when Miker impressed Jamar with his

love of Nice and Smooth. Well, that's good. Who said that? That's what I'm saying. Who said that? I wouldn't plagiarize. That's my own thought. I'm going into

a live chat. Yeah, thank you, Mark Weisblot. That's why you're invited back. By the way, Mark Weisblot is a member

of Stu's Chop Liver Club. I thought you were going to say a member of the tribe. I was like, oh, I didn't know that. He actually is like an accredited journalist.

Flat iron is that word I was looking for. I think all Mike's clients are your podcasting clients. He actually is like an accredited journalist. Flat iron is that word I was looking for. I think all Mike's clients are your podcasting clients. Not that there's anything wrong with chops. Chop liver eaters? They like Pepsi and Dana. Dana Levinson. Lauren Honigman, Peter Gross.

Chop liver eaters when they want something done, they know they need to go to Mike. Totally. Future client, Steve Bacon. The goyim over here. Anyway, I love everybody. I don't care.

The gentle Gentile. I don't care about your religion. All right. Why has it got to be chopped? Well, my mother actually, for those that are listening, Tim is asking, why has the liver got to be chopped uh it doesn't have to be chopped my mother she she used to go until it closed down to this restaurant specifically to get fried liver and onions some people eat that i remember being in

high school possibly with cam in a home economics class where it was like cooking class it was like all girls and me and cam in the class. And for our final project of the year, I'm the one that went. The project was, can you make a dinner that would feed a family that's delicious, healthy, and cheap. And we went and we bought liver from the A&P and we made

a fried liver and onions thing and we got an A+. Lots of irony. I don't want to talk about the celebrity sandwich shop we made. That's right, celebs. So, Percy Park beside the flat iron building, the chopped liver there was full of flat iron. Okay, I see what you did.

You thread that needle. But chopped liver is not... It's like some people think it's gross, but if you go to the right place, and I'm sure 1236 would agree, Diamonds is a great spot. Dater's is a good spot. Nortown is a good spot.

Those three spots. If you get chopped liver at any of those three spots, or Center Street Deli maybe even, you go to any of those four spots, you're going to get some good chopped liver. I think organ meat is tough. It's tough, but not when it's chopped. Okay, so Stu, you're going to get some good chocolate. I think Oregon meat is tough. It's tough, but not when it's chopped.

Okay. So Stu, you made a good point a moment ago. You said that nice and smooth jam. What? That's not an 8 p.m. Jam. That's like a close to 10,

11 p.m. Jam. Yeah. This song here is like, I'm so glad we're close to 11 p.m. here on a Wednesday night because this song, he's got to be late at night for this song. Late at night.

You guys ready for my final transportation jam? Well, no. Can we try to guess what it is? Okay, fine guess. But hold on. To remind you, my second jam was not a bicycle jam. It was about roller skates. Roller skates.

But it still had like, I got a brand new bicycle. Well, it does have a line about, I rode my bicycle past your window last night. But that song is about roller skating. No mistake about it. So my first jam was about bicycle. Bicycle race. My second jam was about roller skating. And who wants to guess my third jam?

Or do you want to hear it? No, no. I want to guess it. Let's let the chat room also try to guess it. Jet by Wings. Yeah, that's a big jam. There's no bicycle song? Bike. Bicycle. Riding my bike. I'm going for a ride. Yeah, that's a big jam. There's no bicycle song? Bike, bicycle.

Motorcycle. Riding my bike. I'm going for a ride. Gonna sail the ocean blue. Wow. That's not it, is it? That's a good jam. I want to ride.

I want to ride. Michael rode his boat ashore. It's like John Denver leaving in a jet plane. No, no, no. Probably not. No one would pick that. Is it Rocket? That would be an awful song to choose.

I was going to do Smashing Pumpkins. I give up. I give up. It could be Criss Cross. I give up. Let's hear what you got. Oh, Weezer. Surf Wars.

Surf Wax USA. But is that about Motor transportation? It's about surfing? It's about surfing It's about surfing I'm going surfing Because I don't like the maze I'm wearing out

Because I hate the breeze Our rats are running Running, running The maze I'm going surfing Going surfing You take your car to work, I'll take my boat. And when you're out of fuel, I'm still afoot. I'm teaching my-boat All along the undertow, I'm a dirt-burnt boat I'll never get given to you, I will never get home

All along the undertow, strengthening with soul I never thought I'd come to this, now I'm never gonna help Hey! Hey! Oh, come on. You may as well. All right, that's Weezer. DJ Lethal in the chat room, listening to us jam out to Weezer. Big fucking deal. That is a big fucking deal right there.

By the way, Lee, I was telling these guys, they were talking about 9-11, and I was telling these guys that you and Limp Bizkit were the first, the last band to do anything on top of the towers, and then it blew up. If you could confirm that, that would be great. Just hit one if that's accurate. Is that accurate? We need Lenny Kravitz to jump in here,

but the dig in, it's not a fun fact, it's an awful fact. All right. Weaker, on on the roof a week before confirmed in your chat room by a guy that was on the roof of wait let me get this straight dj lethal yes just confirmed it on the roof a week before rolling video yes he is telling us right now in the chat room. He's confirming my fun facts. That's amazing. And it must have been scary as fuck to be up there because it was like

the tallest building ever. It was very tall. Surfwax America. That's from the Blue Album. It's called Surf Wax America. Is it? Yeah.

It's their debut album. This is the debut Weezer album. Yeah, we call it the Blue Album. That's the sixth track. There's a bunch of things I want to say here. Firstly, this is the dream lineup of Weezer. I saw them many times. Rivers Cuomo, of course.

Patrick Wilson on drums. Brian Bell on guitar. And Matt Sharp. This is the Matt Sharp era before he went off. He was on bass and backing vocals. Do you guys know who produced that song? Rick Okasik.

Rick Okasik from A Mode of Transportation. Yeah, that's good. Very nice. Like what you did there. And here's a fun fact. The whole exhaust for the sewage system was. He's still telling us about being on top

of the World Trade Center, Mike. Okay, well, once I'm done this, before your jam, you can bring us up to speed here. But in that song, Surf Wax America by Weezer, in the wonderful blue album,

which I can listen to and it's completion today. Front to back, I agree. 32 minutes, very easy. Say it ain't so. I like that album a lot. My name is Jonas. Oh, it's great.

So there's a reference in that song to another band. Okay. Once we did talk about. Usually it's like Kiss, but maybe not this time. This is Rat. Oh, Rat. You guys know Rat? So in that song, there's a line, rats that run round and round in the maze.

Oh, because they had the song Round and Round. I like this song. Yeah, baby. This is a good song. Biggest rat jam. Coming to the stage, gentlemen, gentlemen, gentlemen. Put some greenery on the scenery for a flower. Out on the streets, that's where we meet.

You make the night, I always cross the line Time to stop pills Abuse the cells I'm just catching up on the live stream with the DJ Lethal Mind Blows. Another day Some other way What was their other song?

Was it 17? They had a song later, like, I don't know, it was like the next, like, later that I liked called Way Cool Junior. No, that ain't it. Way Cool Junior. I used to hear it on Q107, but...

I like Basement Dweller and DJ Lethal having an actual conversation. Yeah, stay away, Lee. Don't respond. Are we still in agreement? Don't even respond, Lee. You know better. Don't know, don't care. That's going to end up on TMZ next week. Oh, yeah. So I just thought I'd play the jam that Rivers Cuomo references in his whatever y'all do.

I feel like Rad were kind of a third tier hair metal. Well, they're no Molly Crew. No. But they weren't even Cinderella. I was going to say Cinderella next because they had a couple of jams. And the Bad Seamstress Blues.

Shelter? Gimme Shelter. Rolling Stones, I think. I'm going to clear the track because here comes Stu. We're all out here trolling. Alright, so we're playing songs about this is the final song of the night we're playing songs about modes of transportation right right and uh i'm known to blow some minds so uh let's let's let's

Hold me like you'll never let me go nice nice song do you know what peter paul and mary kim seems like something that would have been played at the gordon household on a saturday the magic with the weavers yeah yeah yes along with the weavers right did you know that... Communists. Are they communists? Well, the Weavers, they were for a while. Pete Seeger, for sure. Do you know that this was Peter, Paul, and Mary's biggest hit,

their final hit, and their only number one song in their entire career? Did you guys know that? What about If I Had a Hammer? Oh, that was for somebody else. This was number one. Trini Lopez. Number one, number one. Trini Lopez. Number one. Number one.

It ended up being used in the United Airlines commercials in the 80s. Or the 60s, 70s. Maybe the 80s. Number one in Canada. Wow. The only version of this song ever recorded. And there's been lots of versions. That ever charted.

Is this version. That's pretty wild. Of course, it's called. Chantel Kirpin. That's pretty wild. Of course, it's called Leaving on a Jet Plane by Peter, Peter, Paul, and Mary, the folks that brought you

such hits as Puff the Magic Dragon. Is that about Canna Cabana? It could be. Always rumored that it was. Now, did you know, Cam, that Peter, Paul, and Mary's number one hit, their only one in their career, has a lot in common with Aerosmith's song...

Don't want to miss a thing. I don't want to miss a thing. Their only number one hit. Peter, Paul, and Mary. And that is that they didn't write it. Okay. Aerosmith's only number one hit, they didn't write it. Diane Warren.

Diane Warren. Leaving on a jet plane, Peter, Paul, and Mary was actually a song. Well, you know. Because I've teed it up for you already. Well, yeah, but everybody knows. Okay, well, let me build this little castle. Leonard Cohen. Everybody. All right, go well, let me build this little castle. Leonard Cohen. Everybody.

All right, go ahead, Mike. I get that reference. Anytime you're ready there, Mike. Thank you. Thank you. Do you know who this is? Is this John Denver? This is John Denver. Okay.

Here's a crazy story about this song, guys. John Denver wrote this song and recorded it, like a little demo of it, and gave it to his friends and family as a Christmas present one year. Okay? One of the people who got the Christmas gift convinced him, we should let Peter, Paul, and Mary record this. Which they did. And it became a number one hit.

How about that? I got distracted because on the live stream DJ Lethal is talking about how Mark McGrath should be on Toast. Let's do it. I'd like to battle Mark McGrath. Would you guys let Mark McGrath zoom in as a special toast guest?

Is he canceled? I feel like he got canceled. No, he's fine. I saw him open up. He did this skip thing for the Smashing Pumpkins concert I went to where Mark McGrath was narrating this skip thing. I don't know what that means. I think he was at a Trump event.

Maybe that's what it means. All right. Ready for the next Mind Blow, guys. Play the next song in a second, but there was a lawsuit involved with this song. Can I just say, firstly, can I just say? Sure, go ahead. The irony, let's not shout at the Ridley Funeral Home,

but John Denver is talking about leaving on a jet plane, and he built his own plane and crashed it and died. And also his other song, Rocky Mountain High, didn't he crash into the Rocky Mountain? And that's about Canna Cabana. So, yeah, John Denver pretty much wrote his own death. All these songs are about weed, I think,

is what I'm learning here today. Okay, performed with a lot of puppets. You ready for your next jam, Stu? Yeah, so I'm going to play this next song that's the second Mind Blow. Oh, wow. Do you know this song? Oh, yeah, I know this story, yes. Do you know this song? Oh, yeah.

I know this story, yes. Run. It's a great tune. This song is by a group called New Order. This song is called Run 2, which now has a co-writing credit from John Denver, who sued the band saying this is a copy of his Leaving on a Jet Plane song, The Judge Agreed. Well, let's listen here. The judge is right. It ain't Aaron Judge, right?

So this song is written by New Order and John Denver. Isn't that interesting? That is interesting. And here's one for Lethal. I'm going to let Lethal get excited about the final mind blow. Is that hip hop, much like Cam's big hit, nice and smooth cover of that song. Sampled, I think. Sampled this song.

Leaving on a Jet Plane, also sampled by a great hip-hop artist. Do you know, Kim? Well, we're going to play it for you. He's thinking sort of. Could be DJ Lethal on the cuts. Tracy Chapman. He was talking about Nice and Smooth. So, John Denver has a writing credit on a Most Def song as well,

which is, I don't know if Lethal knows this guy, DJ Honda. If you remember DJ Honda. But yeah, Most Def, The Traveling Man, which samples, well, I guess it doesn't sample. He sings it, so it's more of a cover. Or interpolation. Yeah. We can let this play for a second.

Cover, I'd say. Where's TJ Hunter? That's his boy. Japanese guy, that's right. And you didn't shout out Chantel Kravicek on the Leaving on a Jet. Wow. I like her. Chantel.ravicek on the Leaving Under Jet. Wow. I like her. Chantel.

That's actually Lee Moser, too. But that's the other combo. That's where John Denver meets Aerosmith's Don't Want to Miss a Thing. Both on the Armageddon soundtrack. Well, this has been another edition of Toast. For those of you who were listening, you heard me come to the victory here, which was great. We got a lot of great action in the chat room tonight, courtesy of Lethal, Cable Guy. Jeff even stopped by.

Cam's yawning. He's got to work in the morning. I'm tired. Shout out to Coolio, who passed away. Yeah, shout out to Coolio, man. Who's no longer with us. But I'm sure Lethal actually went on tour with Coolio. He was mentioning to me earlier when we were chatting about it

that in 94, Lee told me that he was on tour with Coolio and Naughty by Nature and House of Pain in 94. That would have been at the height of Coolio's popularity, maybe. So he was probably a pretty wild guy. Gary Newman, Sammy Hagar, both Hanson on the SLS. Well, the song is called Cars. And I Can't Drive 55. I don't know if that's a car song, but I don't know.

Like no truck songs. This was a lot of fun. I have a great idea. 1996 was the tour. Did I say 2004? I said I meant 1996. I fucked that up. Well, first time for everything, Stu.

You did a great job. Now. By the way, DJ Lethal, a member of Stu's Chop Liver Club. There you go. Jewish DJ. DJ Lethal, Happy member of Stu's Chopped Liver Club. Jewish DJ. DJ Lethal, Happy New Year, Lee. And to Mark, Happy New Year to 1236. When's Passover?

Add that! And that was a great toast. And you guys kicked ass. And it was good to see you guys again. That was a lot of fun. We'll talk after, before Cam falls asleep, about when the hell is the next episode of Toast? Is it the third Thursday?

It's going to be a Wednesday. We'll never know. It's going to be a Wednesday. I can't do Wednesdays. So he can't do Wednesdays. You can't do Thursdays. I don't really want to do Fridays. I don't like Mondays.

Boomtown Rats. There you go. All right. Peace out, everybody. And that's the end of Toast, everybody. And that. We're done. Oh, cable says bye DJ. And that brings us to the end of our 1120th show.

It's 1120. That's the time actually. Shout out to J&L. I'll be there shortly. It's almost 1120. It's 1110. It's like if I wait 10 minutes, I can say this is 11.20. You can follow me on Twitter. I'm at Toronto Mike. Stu is at Stu Stone. Cam is at Cam underscore Gordon.

I know it's true, yeah I know it's true How about you? I've been picking up trash And then putting down roads And they're broken stocks The class struggle explodes And I'll play this guitar Just the best that I can Maybe I'm not and maybe I am But who gives a damn
