Starting point is 00:03:23 Oh yeah, that's right. I love all the Olympics too. Got the Paralympics, the Special Olympics, and the Re-Olympics. Do they call it the Re-Olympics? I don't think they do. I think they just call it Olympics. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:03:35 Remember when Johnny Knoxville did that movie about the Special Olympics? Right. Woo! You wanna talk about things that wouldn't fly today.

Starting point is 00:03:58 Right. Which was a rating success, but for true love for him, turned out to be a disaster. And the reason is is old people don't deserve to be in love again. It's just gross. You don't need it. Just stop. You're done. You don't need love. You don't need intimacy. Nobody wants to watch you kiss. It makes me sick to my stomach. You like watching old people kiss? That's a weird fetish. Is there old people porn? Yeah. Dylan.

You're telling me you wouldn't want to watch an 80 year old woman attempt the vault just as fast as she could down that runway and just hit it and see what happens? Oh, that would be fun to watch.
Starting point is 00:04:56 I just feel like we gotta give old people one last hurrah. You know, it could be an Olympic event. Singing, why isn't that competitive? There's tons of competition shows for singing. What country has the best singers? We would dominate singing. You know who we could send to represent our country? In singing?

Starting point is 00:11:31 It's like, this is Prince. I think he gave me a compliment on my solo. I'm just. What did he? He said, whoever opened their mouth and saying, you know, tell me something good. And I was like, oh my God, that was me. That's great.
Starting point is 00:11:44 I know. Well, that's pretty good. No, he, oh my God, that was me. That was me. I know. Well, that's pretty good. No, he got to be in my orbit a lot. Did you love Prince?

Uh, I wouldn't do it with my kid, but it was some fun stuff. drug around in that arena. Was that bad for a kid growing up? I wouldn't do it with my kid, but it was some fun stuff. Hey, congratulations. You're an empty nester now. Almost.
Starting point is 00:12:12 Six weeks. Six weeks since she's leaving, are you gonna be so sad? So sad. I mean, I'm gonna be there for a few weeks, just hanging out, lurking. Does she sing? She does, but that's not her primary goal. That's her hobby.
Starting point is 00:12:24 Your kid's going to New York. She's going to Pratt. That's exciting. I know. Congratulations. Thank you. Is she excited about it? So excited.
Starting point is 00:12:31 I think like to the, I don't think she's ever coming home. No, she'll come home. I don't know. I'm looking at apartments in Brooklyn. I'm like. Oh, would you move there? 100%. Oh man.
Starting point is 00:12:42 I love Brooklyn. And I don't know. I get why you love it, but it's just like, I was just getting sad thinking, oh, am I gonna like follow my kids around? Yeah. Yeah, you are. Yep.
Starting point is 00:12:54 They just wanna be there, even if they don't want you, you just kinda wanna hang out, like, I'll just be there. Were you always cool, Mom? I must be, because she's throwing all the parties at my house lately, so I must be. They said I was the chill mom. I don't know how that happened.
Starting point is 00:13:06 Is it because you have gummies? Everywhere in like little corners. Right, kids. No, I am chill though. I just want to make sure they're cool and like I'll drive them all. Here's what I want for my children. Yeah, tell me.
Starting point is 00:13:20 I just want him to be nice. He's 100%. That's all I care about. And he is. I know because when he's not, I fucking get real angry. Right? That's kind of my deal too with my kid. I'm like, I don't care what, you just cannot be an asshole.
Starting point is 00:13:33 Right. You cannot be rude. Like I will shut shit down. Just be sweet to people and I will fucking, I will do anything. I'll get you anything. That's what I say. I'll fucking get you anything,
Starting point is 00:13:42 but you better be nice to people. And then you somehow stumbled into singing with children. Really interesting, unexpected jump, yes. How did that happen? A friend of mine, a musician I sang with a while ago, she just drugged me, like come see what I'm doing with these kids. It's just sweet, it'll make you feel good.
Starting point is 00:14:01 You know, and that literally at that time in my life, I'm like, okay, didn't need the money and it did make me feel good. Everybody's giving me a hug afterwards, you know? I was being all healed and I was like, okay. So whenever I had time in between tours, I'd call them like, I can teach for a couple weeks. And that's what I did.
Starting point is 00:14:15 But when I had my kid, I'm like, yeah, let's do this. Pretend we haven't met before and describe what your classes are like. So my classes are a, like, let's have fun, experiment with different types of sounds. I'm going to make you sing. I'm going to make you dance. But this is just to open up your musical, you know, genres and like just introduce the kids to different rhythms, different sounds.
Starting point is 00:14:40 We're playing. I'm in the moment. That's where that's, I guess, my skills, like, we can kind of make it up in 45 minutes. Double time! Crazy time! Woo! Your energy is what nobody can match. True.
Starting point is 00:15:00 When you're, like, doing it, it's like, oh, here we go. Yeah, it's like, oh, let go. I It's like, oh, I remember during the pandemic, that's when I could really lurk on your classes. Cause I could just like, I'd just be like watching them sitting in front of the TV with you on the screen. Just, did you enjoy the Zoom classes or not as much? No, fuck no.
Starting point is 00:15:19 I got you. Not the same. Of course it's not the same, but I thought you could have, you were cleaning up during the pandemic, because everybody else was like, oh, this is great. They jumped on it. I'd look at the Zoom and be like hundreds for a while, like two pages of people.
Starting point is 00:15:33 You know who was the last? Carly. Who was the last? Like that was holding on to like people were dwindling off as the pandemic was going on. I feel like Carly, they were just like, she's like, I'm still here. I was like, I love you. I'm coming to Malibu. What's the youngest age that you start singing
Starting point is 00:15:50 with these kids? I tell parents it's up to them, you know, two months. Because then it's even more so we're doing more things that we like and less, you know what I mean? Less kiddy things, but yeah, as long as, it's really between you and the kid. You know, I'm trying to make you happy. You sing whatever you want to sing, even if your voice sucks.
Starting point is 00:16:08 Just want to have fun. My wife's voice is horrible. She can't sing, but she's loud and that helps. She's like a student. She is like, she's the only mom in class that's like, I'm here with you music. I am going to do all the stuff. Now, as a parent, I guess that you think my son was the greatest.
Starting point is 00:16:26 But do you even remember my son or did they all just blend together? No, I remember. Todd. And I'm not just saying that. He's like Carly. I mean, he's just a very focused student. And like, I mean, student, you know what I mean?
Starting point is 00:16:38 I'm not a teacher either, but he's just always so focused. He's a little different. Like he'll sit there and pay attention the whole entire time and do everything I say. I don't know how you guys did that, but you did it. I think it's Carly.
Starting point is 00:16:50 No, it has nothing to do with her. It's you? I know so many songs I know that are just from you. That I just, every day of my life at some point, I'm singing them. I've got ten little fingers and they all belong to you. I can make them do things just to wait and see. I can shut them up tight. I can open them wide.
Starting point is 00:17:09 Yeah. I can put them together. I didn't write these by the way. I just found shit along the way. I was like, that's smart. Rocket ship, rocket ship to the moon. That's complicated. That's like a 6'8", the whole thing,
Starting point is 00:17:22 and they don't even know their body's doing this little weird 6-8 thing and it's in there. How important is it for children to learn to play an instrument? Important? I think it's helpful. When should I lock my kid into a room with a piano and be like, I don't know how to teach people. He seems like he's into it. So lock him in, I don't know, six. Okay, fine. Obviously start with the rhythm first, because you can get away with a lot,
Starting point is 00:17:48 if you have good rhythm, you can kind of fake your way. That's how I fake my way through a lot of instruments, is because I'm rhythmically okay. My right hand's good, me and my left hand sucks, but my right hand's holding down. So I think if you start them off at drums, and then go piano, so you're training their ears, and then get them on guitar.
Starting point is 00:18:04 Oh man. We got this. That's so much. I got you, so I training their ears and then get them on guitar. Oh man. We got this. That's so much. I got you. So I got. Bill and Sandy. It's fine. They're going to be just fine.
Starting point is 00:18:19 You don't sing traditional wheels on the bus bullshit with kids. Cannot. Can't do it. Just for my own sanity. I feel like if you guys are having fun, they're gonna have fun. And they don't hear, you know. And what's for the children? What's there's a... Wu-Tang.
Starting point is 00:18:33 Yes. Wu-Tang's for the... All day for the kids. Wu-Tang for the kids. No, a lot of Wu-Tang I can do in class, but I did do Shimi Shimi Ah a few weeks ago. Some dad came in and was, what's that song? Shimi Shimi Ya a few weeks ago. Some dad came in and was, what's that song? Shimi Shimi?
Starting point is 00:18:47 I was, oh Dirty Bastard? Like, let's do it. And the whole class, ooh baby I like it raw. I don't know. Have you ever thought of having kids work on like a diss track? A diss track? No, never thought about that.
Starting point is 00:19:00 You a big Drake fan? I am a big Drake fan. You're Team Drake? I'm not Team Drake. You're Team Drake? I'm Team Middle. I'm Team Middle. I'm not gonna talk about that. You a big Drake fan? I am a big Drake fan. You're team Drake? I'm not team Drake. You're team Drake? I'm team middle. I'm team middle. I'm not doing that.
Starting point is 00:19:09 I'm not going in and out. I love Drake, but I hear what Kendrick's saying. When you're from LA, I mean, it's kind of like, they're not like us. I feel that. Have you sang not like us with kids yet? No, but it's coming. It's got to.
Starting point is 00:19:21 Right? Yeah. They're not like us. They're not like us. They're not like us. I can probably do that. Now, you were in my son's life for many years. Yeah. And you would come out to Malibu.
Starting point is 00:19:36 Yeah. And then, and then you stopped. And I stopped. You refused to. Kind of. You're not, you don't really like promote yourself. I don't. It's word of mouth and I gotta do what works for me
Starting point is 00:19:48 in my kid's schedule, you know? And if it's Malibu, you guys caught me in a really good time where it was like COVID and it wasn't a lot of traffic. And I was like, this is great. And I love the ladies up there. It's very chill, it's very much my vibe. That I'm really bad. Like once I get attached to a class
Starting point is 00:20:03 and you get, I just try to keep going. You know, no end. And then until you started ghosting my wife. I did not ghost her. I was like, it's too far. I can't do it. She would write just the most heartfelt things to get you. She really did.
Starting point is 00:20:17 And then you would just like, oh, you put a heart emoji on it and that was it. That's not true. And I'm like, why can't you get music here? And she's like, I don't know. I keep trying. I would if I lived in Malibu. And it's just rude though, because it's like, to me,
Starting point is 00:20:31 here's the question I wanna, it's like a social experiment for my children, because I have two children and I wanna see which one turns out better, the one that you sang to or the one that's only met you one time. But we're gonna try and see which one ends up better. I think they're gonna be the same. Let's talk about the fact that you go to a lot of these
Starting point is 00:20:51 like elitist communities with all these white bitches. It's rough. I'm scared. Yeah. Is that something that you're aware of where you're like, oh, this is. Aware, yeah, it's interesting. It wasn't something you sought out.
Starting point is 00:21:07 Hell no. Um, I don't know how the 1% and that's where I'm at, you know, and it's the it's word of mouth and they have is there people that you're just like, no, I'm not gonna, I'm not gonna work with you anymore. Yes. Yes. I've literally looked at a group and been like, yeah, I'm not coming back. And I was like, you all look dead. And it came out like that. I said, you all look dead.
Starting point is 00:21:30 Like, I couldn't help it. They're just staring off in space. They're not like engaged with their kids. They're like, it's him little fingers. I don't know. I'm like, I'm fucking out. Like, I don't have to do this. Yeah, listen, your business model's unbelievable.
Starting point is 00:21:44 It works. They like it. They're sadistic. I don't know. Talk about some of the crazy shit you've seen from these maniacs, because you're going to their houses. Yeah. Honestly, I want to say that they are probably on their best behavior when I come. So they probably hide, you know, people in the basement. You have all kinds of scheduling problems, because people would want you to do this constantly.
Starting point is 00:22:06 Yes. And you just say no to everybody. Pretty much. Yeah. Because I just can't do it. Yeah, because I do two a day as my tops, mentally, emotionally. Because sometimes I am there for hours afterwards
Starting point is 00:22:16 and everybody is talking to me and crying. That's on you for not leaving. Just say you have to go. No, they're crying and they need a hug. What are you talking about, the children or the parents? The parents. Who the fuck's, what woman is crying on you? Ooh, a lot.
Starting point is 00:22:30 Why, why are they crying? They're emotional. Something's happening in the class. I think, I swear to God, there's like so unintentional somatic work that's happening because I think because I'm making them sing, then they're like beating the shit, you know? I'm like, this is your chance to beat the drum.
Starting point is 00:22:42 And then they're making them dance. Whoever makes them dance. Now they're loosening up in other ways. Now I'm laying them down and playing them like landslider some shit, like the waterfalls, you know, like this just, and I'm like, okay, well let's talk. And then I'm there for three hours. You're a therapist for these fucking entitled assholes.
Starting point is 00:23:01 Yeah, sometimes it's rough, sometimes it's rough. This lady one time she goes, my husband's been gone for like two weeks music, now I feel like you. Like I'm like a single mom like you. I was like, ooh bitch, no you're not. No you're not. You and I are the same.
Starting point is 00:23:19 No. We're the same. And I'll say that shit. I'm like, bitch, no you're not. How much you charge for classes, my wife won't tell me. Ooh, I'm a lot. It just depends, I do say that shit. I'm like, bitch, no you're not. How much do you charge for classes? My wife won't tell me. Ooh, I'm a lot. It just depends. I do as a group.
Starting point is 00:23:29 So it's like eight classes, like 2,000 for eight classes. But people can split that. The host can split that with however many people. What if you show up to a class and they have like 30 kids there? Oh, I charge way extra. Anything after seven kids. Uh-huh.
Starting point is 00:23:43 Boop beep. Okay, any famous moms that you've ever turned down? Yes, but I don't turn them down because of them. I just don't have the time and I'm not gonna, I'm not gonna rearrange because. Why won't you sing Paris Hilton's kid? Oh, did you find that out? Did I say that?
Starting point is 00:23:59 I don't know. Damn it. I didn't have time. I didn't have time and they're apparently pissed about that. What about nannies with their kids? Sometimes I prefer their nanny over them. Depends on the mom, they're way more. I told Carly that when we started having you sing
Starting point is 00:24:16 in our house, I said, I go, no nannies are allowed at this house. I feel that though, I vibe that. Like then you're like forcing parents to be involved with their fucking kids' lives, yeah. But sometimes the parent, I don that though, I vibe that. Then you're like forcing parents to be involved with their fucking kids' lives, yeah. But sometimes the parent, I don't know, they need those nannies better than them. What's the worst thing that these moms can do?
Starting point is 00:24:32 Talk the whole time. Talk on their fucking phone, talking about how cute the baby is. I'm like, why don't you guys talk about that afterwards? Do you hang out afterwards and like to chit chat for a bit or no? With most of my classes, it's interesting. A lot of classes have parties, full on parties afterwards.
Starting point is 00:24:47 Spreads and drinks, mimosas. Now I know why you stopped coming. That's why I stopped coming. Where's the booze? We didn't do any of that shit. No, I don't need all of them. That would be way too much. I'm going home after this and bringing up,
Starting point is 00:25:00 why the fuck didn't you have champagne? We're looking like second rate citizens here. No, thank God. Every class could not do that. It would be ridiculous. And I'd be drunk all the time. What's your drug of choice? Weed.
Starting point is 00:25:14 Mine's attention. Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha Who eatin' food? I don't know. No, I had a teleclass. I'm like, maybe we don't have sprinkle cupcakes every week, you know? Because now they're just thinking about sprinkle cupcakes, and I'm thinking about champagne, and maybe we don't. We would always make these really healthy muffins. Yes, something nice like that. And you would eat those things. I like her. They were disturbing.
Starting point is 00:25:42 But I like... They're not even real ingredients. Or I'm sorry, it's all vegetables and I like. They're not even real ingredients. Or I'm sorry, it's all vegetables and stuff, but it's not a real recipe. She's just blending things up and calling it a muffin. She fucking hit the nail on the head a lot of times though. And I don't know if it's because I grew up
Starting point is 00:25:56 like earthy crunchy like that, but she was killing it, those carrot muffins. Are you a vegetarian? I've never tasted beef or pork, but I don't consider myself a vegetarian. You've never tasted it. Never had a hamburger, bacon, nothing. I don't eat beef, but I've certainly tasted it. Your folks just were like, yeah.
Starting point is 00:26:12 They were hardcore about it and not like just on the health tip. What about your siblings? Are they? Oh no, different. They eat meat. I'm the only one. So they love meat. So I'm just the only one. You're the only one with an original name and you'm the only one. So they love meat. So I'm just the only one. You're the only one with an original name. And you're the only one that doesn't eat meat ever. Ever. Have you had famous musicians, kids,
Starting point is 00:26:36 have you done class with them? Does that intimidate you in any way or no? Fuck yes. Certain, like one of my favorite guitar players was in there and I'm like, shit, like, of my favorite guitar players was in there and I'm like, shit, like, you wanna play? You know what I mean? Like, do you wanna play it for me?
Starting point is 00:26:50 But then I was so validated because they started coming to two classes a week, you know? So by himself, like without his nanny, he was just coming with his two kids. And I was like. Okay, at least he brought his kids. Huh? I said, at least he brought his kids.
Starting point is 00:27:04 At least he brought his kids. He did bring his kids, least he brought his kids. At least he brought his kids. He did bring his kids, but he was rad. You know, there's a few, there's a few that I'm like, God damn, I just start sweating inside. And I'm like, I'm not that great. And they're like, you're great. And I'm like, am I? I don't know.
Starting point is 00:27:16 It's intimidating. Some people are intimidating for sure. Who is it? Tom Morello, do you know who that is? From Raging Against the Machines? I know him. Okay. Is that the person I told you the story about? Tim Coma Ford.
Starting point is 00:27:28 Tim Coma Ford, yeah. Yeah, he always, he embarrasses me when I see him in public. Does he? He's a fan of my comedy. I love it. And he starts screaming at me. No.
Starting point is 00:27:37 You're comedies. And I'm like, okay, please stop doing this. Oh my God, I love it. This is horribly embarrassing. Why? That's so cool, because you're actually funny. Am I the only person that's ever carried all of your stuff? The only one, and I talk about it and brag about it
Starting point is 00:27:53 to other dudes all the time. And that doesn't make them pick it up? A couple people. When she shows up, she's got, in the back of her car, she's got a million instruments for the kids to play. It's a huge bag, it's probably 60 pounds. And that was my job. I was just always so impressed by that.
Starting point is 00:28:09 I mean, it's like on the dot, you're waiting to pick up my stuff. I was like, I love him. No, I tell every dad, just so they feel small. Good. Dads are shitty. It's shitty. You ever slept with any of your students' dads?
Starting point is 00:28:22 No. Definitely not. Do you. Right. Definitely not. Do you want to? Definitely not. All right. A lot of dads come to class, and the handful that I do, they're so awesome that you wouldn't even, like, they're in a good place. Not me.
Starting point is 00:28:39 I've been on a rocky road for a long time. Yeah, all right. You're stupid. What's your dating status right now? Single. You all horned up? Yep. Huh?
Starting point is 00:28:50 Totally. Are you dating? No, I broke up with someone. No, it's been a good six months. Six months is a great amount of time to get back into. Exactly, that's where I'm feeling. Are you, will you jump on the apps? No.
Starting point is 00:29:05 You do it old school style. I need people to introduce me to people. I've been on the apps, jumped on for like 24 hours. Uh huh, and then you were like no? Like six months ago, I was like, this is the same fucking dudes that were on here 10 years ago, last time I was singing, that's sap. I was like, but I am, so I don't know.
Starting point is 00:29:21 I always give everybody a gift on the show because I just take stuff from my house and I give it away. Oh, okay. I just walk around my house. You just do? Yeah. That's amazing. Two things, one thing I wanted to give you.
Starting point is 00:29:31 This is a book my wife wrote, but I think they stole your story. It's a woman about being a music teacher. Things go off the rails. So interesting. Someone called me about a book. She agrees to do musicians for like wealthy infants Things go off the rails. So interesting. Someone called me about a book. She agrees to do musicians for like wealthy infants
Starting point is 00:29:48 in New York's Park Avenue. Anyway, I just want you to find out if they stole this from you. I think someone hit me up about this. She was like, I think this is your story, but she's in New York and it's like, this is awesome for you. What the fuck is this?
Starting point is 00:30:06 It's a piano that you step on, you know? Oh, yeah, I can definitely use. You give this to a kid. Okay. I can definitely use this. I don't want it, but you know who gave me this? Not in class, I'm bringing this to glasses. I'll do whatever you want with it.
Starting point is 00:30:20 Really? I don't like it. And they're shorts. You know who gave me this? Who? Mona. Oh, who? I don't like it. I think it's shorts. You know who gave me this? Who? Mona. Mona? Oh, Mona.
Starting point is 00:30:27 I love her. She's hilarious. Yeah, well, she gave it to me. I said, I don't want it in my house. Okay. So I was like, Mona. And Mona, Mona, she tries to pretend like she's not a white girl in Malibu
Starting point is 00:30:41 just because she's Egyptian. Right? I love her. But I'm like, you're still a white chick. She's so fun. I love her. She cracks me up. Do you consider Egyptians white chicks?
Starting point is 00:30:50 Guess not. You don't? I don't. No, all right. All right. Then fine. Then she counts as somebody different. Maybe that's, yeah, I don't.
Starting point is 00:31:00 I'm taking this shit. No, I'm hype about this. Cause someone told me about this. Have you, any of the kids that you've taught when they were little, have any of them grown up to a part now where you're like, oh no, they're a singer now? Yeah, there's a, yeah.
Starting point is 00:31:14 Are you serious? JJ Abrams' daughter, like she came to a few classes, and I think she's doing really big. I think she just opened up for like Taylor Swift. Yeah, she can sing. She can sing. So you sang with her when she was a little kid? Yeah, her aunt was huge and she was like,
Starting point is 00:31:26 you gotta have me and my niece. She was so sweet, so sweet. That's the only one I could think of that's like doing like, but I've gotten lots of videos where the bands are ridiculous that they're in, that they're doing. Have you ever thought about like, you sign all these kids when they're two to three to like these lifelong contracts?
Starting point is 00:31:40 That would be amazing. You should just try. You don't want any part of that, you know? When they say that everybody has a joke. Well. I don't want any part of that, you know. Everybody has a joke. Well, I feel like this is because of you. I feel like if he becomes the next Sam Smith, well, that's not the one I'm going to use,
Starting point is 00:31:53 but something like that, it's because of you, you know. Wait, what's the kid with the red hair? Sing your song. Ed Sheeran. Thank you, Ed Sheeran. Someone just said that. I think he's going to be the next Ed Sheeran. It's going to be because of you.
Starting point is 00:32:04 I'm like, that's amazing. Was that kid ugly? Is that, what was the point? He's so beautiful and he's amazing. I like that. He's just very guitar, yeah, I don't know. But I do, there's some people that I'm like, the apple is like the next Bowie or something, you know? You can kind of see it.
Starting point is 00:32:20 And one of them, like that I said that about, he's on Broadway, you know, so. The writing's on the wall for my kids. They're not gonna be the next Bowie. You don't know. Well, but you do. I think we got some time. I think we got some time to see what's happening.
Starting point is 00:32:37 Top five favorite musical acts. And before you tell me, I just want to say that Fish is one of the worst bands of all time. I just had to air that out. Jam bands are awful, all right? Grateful Dead, Widespread Panic. No, I agree. All of them garbage. Now continue.
Starting point is 00:32:54 I agree. I'm just saying if I look at something like that, fucking Dude's a Fish dude. I might play it just to appease him. Yeah, I don't listen to Fish or the Dead. Top five music, I gotta say, man, that's really hard. I'ma try. Radiohead.
Starting point is 00:33:09 That's not weird. That's my top. Biggie. Wu-Tang. Okay, that's hip hop. Go over there. I don't know, this is so hard. I come from that PJ Harvey, Queens of the Stone Age.
Starting point is 00:33:21 Throw those in there. That's five, technically. That's technically five. Did you like Tori Amos ever? I did. Go through a phase with her? Yes, I did. All them bitches.
Starting point is 00:33:32 Tori Amos, like I'm gonna tell you the Holy Trinity. Tori Amos, Arne DeFranco, Bjork, PJ Harvey. That's where I'm at. Bjork always, I was like, I can't do it. Really? I mean, maybe if there's one or two key songs, but like I'm not artistic enough to appreciate it. And she would say, but it's pop music,
Starting point is 00:33:49 and I make it for everybody. And you're like, no way. I'm like, I'm gonna say shit's weird. It's so good. Like, I probably love like 95% of her music. If you could be in any band. To sing background for? Or any version of it.
Starting point is 00:34:02 Or any version. Say if a band has a lead singer that you could pull it off and they die, and now they want to continue on. Oh my God. But they want to bring in music. Jesus. I mean, it's a great scenario. It's a great scenario.
Starting point is 00:34:14 Like that only happens to guys. I can only think of like guy bands where there's... It's never happened where they brought it, they've replaced a front man. It can be a guy and they replace it with you. And they're with a... But you're saying it's never happened. That's interesting, why not? That's sexist.
Starting point is 00:34:28 I mean, it seems like those old bands are the ones that are replacing Journey and The Dead. I can't even think of a younger band that has replaced... We've got to find somebody. Put a hit out on somebody. Yeah, because I can't think of a band I would not... If you asked me to sing background, like anybody could bring me out of like my background in retirement, it would be like D'Angelo.
Starting point is 00:34:50 Oh. Singing those backgrounds in his music. All I think about when I think of him. What? I just think about the V. That body of, ugh. That's all I think about the V. As a boy, the first one, when you're a kid
Starting point is 00:35:02 and you see that on MTV, you're like, oh shit, I might need to do some sit ups. Right, that shit was crazy. I was in love with that. Camera was so low back then. It was like just kept. Just right there. You released an album in 2023?
Starting point is 00:35:19 I released a couple songs. Okay. Hell Mary, help me Jesus, oh Buddha, he's a witch. Released a couple songs. Okay. Will you try to release a full album now? That's what I'm working on. Now I have time. She's gone all the time, you know, and she's just out with her friends and that was my main priority. Will Ten Little Fingers be on that album?
Starting point is 00:35:40 Definitely not. I heard you do sound baths now in music class for like adults. I'm starting to because everything that's happened with the kids, all the ladies are like, can we just do this without the kids? You know, because they're, they're not like, not everybody sits there like, you know, somebody just running around after the kid and they're like exhausted. And so they're like, can we do this without the kids and some wine and food? And I'm like, yeah.
Starting point is 00:36:04 Are you gonna get rid of children altogether? Hopefully. What? Not all the way, but I started this to hang out with my kid. Now I have an adult as of yesterday. She's a full adult. So yeah, and it's time to start a transition. But there's also like a dynamic between a teenage girl
Starting point is 00:36:26 and her mother that you can't really fight against. Oh my God, it's crazy. Cause also we are so much alike, so it's almost just too much. You guys ever fight over the same guy? Yeah, no. She's more like, who's that? Like, I hate him.
Starting point is 00:36:42 Who is he? All right, music, anything you need from me for the rest of your life, you can have. I love them. Like. Ah ha. Who is he? All right, music, anything you need from me for the rest of your life, you can have. I love you. I got my keyboard, so. And my book. That's garbage. Well, I do, I am coming to play pickleball.
Starting point is 00:36:54 Okay. And I'm bringing tacos. Huh? We're gonna play pickleball and eat tacos? Yes. Oh, I love it. Yeah, they're vegetarian tacos. Do you play pickleball?
Starting point is 00:37:02 No, but I'm sure I can. It doesn't look very hard. It's not. That's why I'm dying to can't. It doesn't look very hard. It's not. That's why I'm dying to do it. It's fun and stupid. Exactly. All right, see you soon. See you.
