Episode Date: December 29, 2019

This week we review Todd Pettengill (from the Scott and Todd Show) on his new podcast, Hey Todd! Erik Nagel (former Opie & Anthony producer) joins us and knows way too much about Todd’s show, Todd��s history, and radio in general. It was nice having a cohost on who actually knows things about stuff! Refreshing even. We break format to talk to both Erock and Mike Safo about Opie’s future. We also review Stuttering John’s embarrassing YouTube interview with Jason Ellis. And stick around after the show ends because everyone’s favorite pre-pubescent boy listener Vic joins the show for our voicemail segment.

Dick and I have talked about doing some crossover shows that are just for the patrons out there. We also encourage our listeners to give us a five star review on itunes and then shit all over us in the comments section. Today, Eric and I will be reviewing a podcast called Hey Todd, we have both listened to the show separately. We have not discussed it with each other beforehand. Well, let's get into it. This is a podcast hosted by the very world famous radio disc jockey Todd pettingill. Yeah.

Amanda shot his daughter and Christopher House. Some annoying retard. You Christopher House is I looked up as LinkedIn and everything. Yeah. So I partly did TV and radio in Pittsburgh. Okay. How he wound up in Austin, Texas. I think he was just there. And they said, Hey, you want to do radio with us?

And he said, yes. Which is a weird choice to make. Because what they've done is they used to have a morning zoo style show on a radio station that was adult contemporary. Their core demographic was middle age women in northern New Jersey, are the people who were listening to this show. It was a weird, it was a legendary radio station, but it was a weird demographic for that radio station WPLJ, which is now a religious station.

But back in its, there's two heydays for it. It used to be the big rock station in New York City, and they flipped it to top 40 in the early 80s. And it was just tanking for a decade. And then Scott, who was on a competing station there, who was killing them, went to LA for a few years, came back to this station to rebuild this station that he used to compete against. Broad and Todd, who was just some kid doing radio up in Albany, and they landed one of the cushy's jobs in the world for 23 years, something like that. At the same station, never having to change jobs,

change time slots, anything, making millions of dollars. And the station seemed to have appeal to soccer moms, but only in New Jersey. Right. This chest there was kind of there, long island. I don't really think even paid attention to the rate of station, but something about New Jersey from the Jersey Shore area all the way up to Northern Jersey seemed to be obsessed with this station. Didn't do them a lot of good. I mean, they

made a ton of money. The station billed very heavily. It was like one of the top billing stations in New York City, but the ratings were a disaster. So they were making tons of money, but who cares if the ratings were bad, if all the money was coming in, thanks to these soccer moms. So you're referring to the Scott and Todd show, which was the morning show featuring Scott Shannon, the legendary Scott Shannon, along with Todd Pettongale. And basically what happened, and this was well documented if you listen to Open Anthony in October over the years, is that show was a fucking disaster. It was so cheesy and awful. And Todd's got this ego where he just thinks he's a comic genius.

So he kind of pushed Scott Shannon out, Scott left the show and it became the Todd show. That only lasted a year until they forced him to have a co-host. Right, Scott ended up destroying Todd in the ratings after that. Scott went on to do a show somewhere else and First year he started I forgot what year it was, but he started in February of that year. Yeah By the end of the summer had hit number one again It was hilarious because Todd thought that he was the talent with all of his phone scans

He does his jerky boys impression I'll get into and he does lots of song parodies with shoe horn learson are funny so he he thought that he was the talent and the reason why anybody would listen and so he's like i don't need to catch and get this fucking guy out here turns out all those housewives who didn't know why they're listening to it anyway we're actually

scot fans and just left with them because like the old-powered effect in in New York City at least was that when Howard went off the air, the station tanked. He was on K-Rock in New York for many years. So they would listen to 6am to whenever Howard wanted to end the show.

And then the rest of the day, the station struggled between formats and different jocks and stuff to try to keep the audience there because they would just do a mass exodus and like 11.05, they were gone. PLJ was the weird thing too. The morning show did very well, but then they hung around for the rest of the day.

It's like they forgot to turn the radio station off. Fucking lazy losers. As we do that, we're on all the time. So when the morning show is doing just a step above the radio station, you look at it and go, well, do we try to fix this? Or do we, because if we fix one, does it collapse the rest of this thing? Or do we just leave it like this because we're making a ton of money? And that's what they did for so many years.

I should mention real quick, because we have a lot of listeners to this show who aren't familiar with Open Anthony and what your background is. And you are speaking inside baseball right now. You are the producer of the Open Anthony show for like eight years or something like that. Probably the longest tenured producer of that show, correct? Long, long time since 2004, and I ran their channel

to a series XM. Right, oh, you ran the entire channel so yes, so Eric has and we'll get into the other things you're doing these days But just to get people background on this as we're talking about formats and ratings and things like that. This is a This is Eric's thing right here. He knows more about this shit than anyone else We're gonna talk like Marvel nerds or you know magic, Dungeons and Dragons thing. I was a radio nerd. I was one of those kids that figured out early on that you could call a radio station.

And I used to call Scot Shannon when I was like five, six years old in the morning before school. I would just pick up the phone and start calling. And he wound up throwing me on the air for a long time. Just because I was just, like I didn't know what the hell I was talking about and they just found it endlessly entertaining, much like it is now. And your radio career has been all downhill ever since. Oh yeah, it's over.

It's over. Yeah, I peaked at five. But I also used to intern for PLJ and Scott and Todd from 96 through 98. Oh, shit, I didn't know that. Yeah, it was back in the time when computers weren't fully running everything yet. So everything was paperwork.

Yeah. So you lie and say, oh yeah, I'm in college, but you're really in high school. And yeah, from 96 through 98, so I'd go to school, come back in between like Christmas breaks and summer stuff. And I'd work there. I worked for the morning show for a little bit and where my hatred of Todd festered. And yeah, it worked in the afternoon show there too,

it was a great run. Oh, this is awesome. So you actually worked with Todd, you know the guy personally. I've never been to his house. I've never been out anywhere outside of the actual radio station, but yeah, I worked there for a while and yeah, not a fan. All right. So this is what happened. The shows ratings went down after Scott left and then they tried to fix it. The tank. Right. Then they tried they tried to fix it. Sorry, I'm stepping all over you. No for their tenure. When Todd took over, Kicks got out, they dropped down to like 19th in a market that had like 27 radio stations. And the station tanked even lower for the rest of Todd's run, which is why they had the seller for pennies on the dollar. Right. So that's the point I wanted to get to is that eventually they sold the station, it's now a religious station, which 95.5 is a weird place

to put a religious station, but radio is scrambling right now. They don't know what to do. So they won't put it, they won't put personalities and talented people on the radio anymore, because they're afraid of everything. They're afraid of Twitter outrage, and somebody's gonna go attack our sponsors and guest bookings and things like that.

So they play it safe where you have somebody reading a liner card or something for maybe 30 seconds in between a couple of songs and that's it. So that gets us to what Todd is now doing. So he got lost his job. He decided to move out of New York, which is smart because it's cost a lot to live there.

He stopped making money. Oh, he should maybe take note of that. So he decided to move on to New York and start a podcast that's subscriber only. It's haytod.com. He's got his daughter on there. Like we mentioned this guy, house that he talks to. And I want to get into some clips. This is at the very beginning of their show. They, you know, this is the holiday shows. We're in December here. This is the 23rd right before Christmas. So they're in a very festive spirit

and there's nothing of substance whatsoever, which they then admit and then go right into a sales pitch. ["The Hits on the Show"] Hey everybody, welcome to the Hitchhawk Show! December 23rd, it is the month day. Our last show before the break is going to be offered. Christmas Eve and Christmas Eve. Evergreen right back at the 26th.

I'm gonna right back, only take it to a day's all. Say hello to a man to shot this. Give it up for house to produce happy Christmas. Happy holidays. Everybody Merry Christmas. Happy Honaka. Happy Holohonio. Happy Holohonio. I gotta be honest, the show is not very well thought out. It's just basically a collection of happy whole hosts. It's just us saying happy holidays. Thank you for your loyalty. Thank you for subscribing and tell everyone you know that they should join Hantai.com.

That's the worst sales pitch ever. They come on, they do nothing. He says, wow, we have nothing going on. We have nothing to talk about. And thank you for subscribing. And don't forget to tell your friends that they should subscribe too. Why I First of all how embarrassing would it be to admit that you have subscription to the hey Todd show? I'd really be caught masturbating in public that in mid to my friends. I had that you could do that But you have production that should be doing that for you like a, what he was doing for 20 something years in New York City.

Have the production say it and then you just do the show instead of doing voices and everything on this show too. You'll hear clips. All his music is way too loud. Yes. I don't know who's producing this thing for him or if it's him doing it himself, but every time he tries to talk and throughout the entire show, you can have a conversation without a bed playing under him.

Eric, he owns his own recording studio. You sent me the article. Him and his other daughter run this recording studio, and I was pulling down these clips, and thank you for grabbing all these shows. I'm going through and looking at it. The levels are all over the place. I don't think they use a compressor or a normalizer on anything. You have the phone scams that are so quiet, and then that shit kicks in, and it's cranking.

Like, dude, this is the one thing you should be good at. This is something that a lot of radio people are guilty of. If they've had some success on air, being the on-air talent, they don't know how to do anything else when it comes to the job. Oh, absolutely. They don't know how to edit. They don't know how to do anything else when it comes to the job. I don't know how to edit. They don't know how to edit. They don't know how to produce their own stuff. They don't even know how to print out their own articles

half the time if they're doing any kind of prep. And this just goes to show. You look at it and like you said, you look at the way for me, this is everywhere. This is going to blow out my headphones. If I listen to this portion of the show, raise the volume and then all of a sudden, he comes blaring in with a Christmas bed like this.

Yeah. And you can barely hear him too. It's so poorly mixed. And you mentioned that there should be multi-millionaire. I know. And he's got radio money. He had syndication money for a tiny bit. He had WWF, WWE money.

Yes. And he can't hire somebody to do this right. We didn't even mention that. He used to work for the WWF in the 90s, right? As a whatever you get to read. Right, where WUE was really tanking bad to WCW, in your house era, that's where Todd was. And then they left or they got rid of him.

I don't know what the true story was. And then the attitude era started and they started making a billion dollars. So they kicked him out and the company just went skyrocketed. Yeah, because you can't have that little dweeb interviewing stone cold. It's not going to fucking work. Like, okay, we need an actual met in here to interview these wrestlers. All right, so you mentioned that if he's going to promote, like tell your friends to subscribe,

which is fine, but you don't do that as part of the content of the show. You would do- You're part of the intro of the show. They're right. You're coming out of a break. Like if you had actual commercials on there or did live reads, you come back out of ins and a, just tell your friends, you remember to subscribe,

whatever, you do it as a little quick hit and then you move on to your conversation. Well, the funniest thing is, is that the only way to hear this is to subscribe at haytod.com. But he does have songs that promote haytod.com which makes zero sense. Here's an example of one such song. Look out Todd his own.

Look out. Fridge from the Tile and Zone. He's got it going on. It's haytod.com. Hey, nothing he won't discuss. Listen. This dude's a larry ape. Listening, here's a play.

Hey, talk, talk, talk, talk, talk, talk. I just want to point out the lyrics to that song. In case you missed it. Oh, yeah. He says, look out, Todd is on. Friends from the Twilight Zone. He's got it going on. It's Hey Todd.com.

Yeah. These gospel jingles, right? This was a Scott thing. Scott had this for Scott and Todd back in the day and they were used very sparingly. They were used like in the, when the show started at 6am, the kind of gets you up and moving everything,

but then you didn't really hear them all the time. Todd had like four to six of these made and plays them all the time. All the time. I have another example, but let me just finish up the second verse here. Hey, nothing he won't discuss. This dude's hilarious. A plus. That's his shoehorn. That was something. Yeah. Yeah. Yes. Cesson all the time with his power, not in order not Anthony, used to obsess on all the time when we'd

played Todd's parodies is that he loves To shoehorn in words that don't really fit just or spread them out You know as you're speaking them like phonetically so that it will kind of sort of maybe make sense in the song instead of finding something more creative to write and put in there All right, let's let's do another example. Here's another haytod.com song. We got to promote the website where it's the only way you can possibly hear this is by going to this website. Hey, Todd, your point is back. Oh, still talking to me. It's funny and sometimes not it. Yeah, but I want you to help to say, Listen to hate. Top.com This dude is a fucking cordball

The lyrics are, Hey Todd, your boy is back Ooh, still talking smack It's funny and sometimes naughty But we love what you have to say Listen to Hey Todd.com I would love to break the own lyrics to how amazing I am in every song that I write Both with the end really great and a pretty good looking guy

He somehow for a guy who wasn't really and you know brought up in the 80s He stuck in the 80s. Yes, the way he does his creative content for this show the production And again, this was all Scott and Todd PLJ stuff. So he contacted the company that was doing all this for that station, said, hey, can we take all that and just change it to make it about me? How much does it cost to? He brought it over to his place.

How much does it cost to subscribe to the Hey Todd show? I, what was it? Oh, it's the old frequency. I think it's like $9. Oh, nine, nine, nine, 55. That's right. Nine, nine, nine, nine, nine, nine, nine, nine, nine, nine, nine, nine, nine, nine, nine, nine, nine, nine, nine, nine, nine, nine, nine, nine, nine, nine, nine, nine, nine, nine, nine, nine, nine, nine, nine, nine, nine, nine, nine, nine, nine, nine, nine, nine, nine, nine, nine, nine, nine, nine, nine, nine,

nine, nine, nine, nine, nine, nine, nine, nine, nine, nine, nine, nine, nine, nine, nine, nine, nine, nine, nine, nine, nine, nine, nine, nine, nine, nine, nine, nine, nine, nine, nine, nine, nine, nine, nine, nine, nine, nine, nine, nine, nine, nine, nine, nine, nine, nine, nine, nine, nine, nine, nine, nine, nine, nine, nine, nine, nine, nine, nine, nine, nine, nine, nine, nine, nine, nine, nine, nine, nine, nine, nine, nine, nine, nine, nine, nine, nine, nine, nine, nine, nine, nine, nine, nine, nine, nine, nine, nine, nine, nine, nine, nine, nine, nine, nine, nine, nine, nine, nine,

nine, nine, nine, nine, nine, nine, nine, nine, nine, nine, nine, nine, nine, nine, nine, nine, nine, nine, nine, nine, nine, nine, nine, nine, nine, nine, nine, nine, nine, nine, nine, nine, nine, nine, nine, nine and hey, hey, whatever. If you wanna do Clips 10 and 11 that I gave you, his daughter on the show, I don't know her. I've never actually met her. For some reason, when Todd does this voice, he's sounding like the jerky boy guy, it seems like he would do this all the time like in their house because she does it too.

She has this weird feeling. She sounds like an older Jewish woman, which she's not, and she sounds like Todd's dumb voice. So they must have, they imagine coming home and your dad talks like this all the time. And then everybody in the family starts talking like this, again and again and again, and now it becomes part, it's ingrained in you that this is how you speak as a person. I think I'm very lucky that I live in a neighborhood where we apparently do not have

a large population of pork pirates. That's good. I have been known to leave a package on my porch for a minute because I'm usually walking in the, you know, I'm walking in my house with 17 children and bags and boxes. So I've been known to leave it to linger for a minute. And then came without whip it just came without both. Yes, that's your line.

I think yeah. So anyway, there was an interesting story we all know of Jesus Christ. She just there's a character. Yeah, I don't know why this happens, but there's a character. There's a showdown in Orlando. Oh, it used to be on in Orlando for like 30 years, I think,

called the Phillips file. Oh, and I did an attack against them back in the day. But it was this guy, Jim Phillips, but his co-host was this lady who did a character named Moira. And she just was this over eccentric Jewish mother who would talk like this all the time. And you're in the deep south, you know, in Redneck territory. And I was relating to deep south, you know, in redneck territory.

And it was relating to this. Like a new Jewish lady. And it's like, it doesn't make any sense as why you're doing this. Now this lady here, they're Italian. From North Jersey, obviously there's, you know, a mix of Jewish and Italian in this area. But she's putting on this voice and I don't get it.

He does it, he does it like as an accent to try to show you where his jokes are. She does it as part of her normal conversation now. It's really maddening to listen to it. Alright, let's hear this other example. And yesterday my husband thinks he's funny. He sent a screenshot of like upcoming Austin weather. Something we're supposed to get like a snap of cold. This weekend or something and it's supposed to go down to like 28 he's like haha good thing we're

getting out of here before it gets really cold in Austin and everyone was like haha like that's cold I'm like that is cold that is cold that is cold what's the temperature gonna be in fire go 70 in real life now okay, they hover around you know somewhere between 10 and negative 10 It's terrible. What the fuck hey? That's now anybody talks What is that talk like normal people? This is a new format for him by the way because he's used to talking in like five minute chunks with tons of music playing from the radio Yeah, now he has to stretch out a conversation and do long form discussions. And he's been doing it for a while because when his first show started, we covered it on Anthony's show.

It was horrible. I mean, this is bad too, but it was horrible. He didn't know how to do a longer form discussion. And he had nobody. Now he has a couple of people. And this is what they're doing. It's like they can't just talk normally with each other. By the way, you brought up that you did this on the Anthony show. Was this the time that you brought it in very late in the show and actually went over by a few minutes reviewing some of the Todd show or Hey Todd?

Probably. Because I was watching that and it was so funny to see Dave Landau was so put off by, he's like, is this really what we're doing right now? Why do I have to listen to this? And Dave Landau was booked to be on this show a couple of times and had things come up and had a cancel.

I'm starting to think he would not enjoy this show for a bad at all because he was so put off by even listening to this garbage for even two seconds. He would. I just didn't, he used to listen to ONA and other shows you know for himself growing up and I think he was off put by how bad this was Oh, he wasn't having any fun with it. Oh, she's like what the fuck are we doing right now? Why are we doing this? Yeah, exactly It's exactly everybody listening to this is like why are you even paying attention to the show? It's so bad Well, this is why all right

So you bring up this voice thing and I have a theory on this. And it does come from Todd originally when you don't have jokes or anything of substance to say you try to talk with an accent or an affliction. And that's what gives you the personality. Oh, this person's interesting because they talk weird. I want to set up a phone scam. And Todd's very well known for these prank calls that he does that are 100% fake.

They're all set up. I'd say scripted. They're not really scripted. But they are. I can. A couple of female comics who used to, for the service that he was doing, used to make money just reading their end of the scripts and then they would make the phone.

Oh, that's even worse, because it sounds like it's loosely scripted because it's like terrible improv. The fact that they actually wrote this shit, okay. This is the stuff, there's always this elaborate setup to all these phone scams. It gets you to believe that they actually pulled this off and this is the setup to this Christmas phone scam he does.

We got tipped off that Asana did not show up at his mall job. So one of the people who worked at the mall in the office was a very big fan of the show called and said you got to call right now because the manager is flipping out Santa Claus is not here and maybe you can you know pull a scam on or so we say oh that sounds perfect. This is the sick Saint Nick. All right. So this is the sick Saint Nick call, where he's gonna pretend to be the Santa who didn't show up.

This is so convoluted. Do you really think someone's gonna be like, oh, I see this as an opportunity for content, for Todd's show. I'll give him a call and let him know. It doesn't make any sense. So, wait, you'll spur the moment. This is happening now.

You got to scam this thing. So, who has all the material ready to go? Because something is happening now. This is perfect for a phone scam. But that allows you everyone to believe that this is what he does all day. He's just waiting for opportunities to prank people. So, the prank starts off with

the woman can't hear what he's saying, and she keeps saying, who is this? And he's like, what? And it's just like, this back and forth, it doesn't make any sense. There's no reason for it. It's like he's just trying to fill time. I think a lot of these things are just a stretch time

and fill the hour. A lot of it, too, in the phone scam was that so they would read their end, right? Or they were not to react to what he was saying. They followed their script while they were doing phone call. And it was this so he could be outrageous and say these weird lines. It was sort of like in the member of the early days of family guy, where do the parents know the baby's talking or not?

He's going on here. Like do they know what this ridiculous nonsense? They're acting normally, but do you know what he's saying? And trying to present here? And this was just this was every phone call for Jesus almost 30 years at this point. So anyone who was familiar with that original jerky boys CD? Well, no that this is just a blatant ripoff of that, but done so poorly. It's as if Todd doesn't know why the jerky boys were funny he thinks it's because of the voice

the frank riso characters that that wasn't the reason why but anyway so he after all this back and forth he gets into the meet of the hilariousness that is santa claus calling and sick i'm the santa claus well excuse me right now didn't tell me that sooner people lined up i tried to tell uh... we've got we've got all these problems here now personnel is over here

listen I think I got a lawsuit against you people oh excuse me I don't think you are making me wear that fear the old day right now the assistant to the managers I was trying to find another Santa Claus because nobody's here and these kids are starting to spare I got to wear long-drawn because a little one squirt on me when they get nervous Well, they're lovely part of the bag, isn't it? Now when you send your contract, you're supposed to be here. Your season only lasts until Christmas. Would you stop yelling?

Would you stop yelling at me, please? There's no way we can deal with this. You need to get down here right away. I can't get down there, I'm sick. You know, this is Christmas and these kids kids aren't gonna have any kind of a Christmas if they're equal Santa Claus's home, kiss and mone, and pull. Can I say something?

Sure, go right ahead because I got people lined up. My U-Log is inflamed. So all of that to get to is my U-Log is inflamed joke, which I doesn't make any fucking sense. And at the beginning of the call, she wasn't believing that he was he worked for the company She's like trying to get his name. It's like who are you? Do you work here? Whatever and then it more sent to we have kids waiting here and you should be here by now like she totally buys it the whole

Oh, yeah, no, it's not it's not believable at all Could you imagine he's calling in saying that he's definitely sick and it's terrible acting and it's stupid But he's saying that he's very sick and her response is get your ass down here and touch children. That's not what I'm sorry anyone who would react to that. At the same time she says the assistant manager is out looking for another Santa cause. Okay. Sounds like you got a plan that you're working on. He used to do phone scams in the 90s where he he was doing very heavy, stereotypical voices of Indian people, Asian people.

And you do not find those, I mean, I have them, but you do not find them online anywhere anymore, because he'd probably get in a lot of trouble for it. Well, if you want to share it with me, I'd be happy to play them on W-A-T-P. Dude, I'm getting an echo. I'm getting a slapback from you. I'm not hearing anything. I think it's fixed. Alright. People are saying it was definitely on your end because when they muted you, they

didn't hear it. But I don't know why that happens. So. No either. Alright. This is the same setup we use with I heart so I don't know. Okay. Alright, we're gonna we're gonna do something fun here for a second. We're gonna stop talking about Todd for just a bit. And then we'll come back. But I want to

call one of our friends of the show have you ever met Mike Sapo? I have. Cool. We're gonna give him a ring. We're just gonna have a quick convo with him. I have. Cool. We're gonna give him a ring. We're just gonna have a quick combo with him. Oh, hello, Carl. Hey, Mike, how's it going, buddy? What's up, Phil? Not too much. I got Iraq here, too. Always a pleasure, Iraq. How are you? I'm Michael. Carl, here's what I'm confused with. You go from Florentine show, you get Florentine on the show, you get Yorok, you're on Compound Media, you're on Chip Chipperson, and then you get a finished of you with me. You really went downhill, man. You're supposed to finish

on a high note. Yeah, that's a good point. We should probably get you off really quickly. I don't want to drag this out too long. Of course not. No, the reason why I wanted to have you on, Mike, and you know this because I reached out to you. We were chatting back and forth a little bit. So Opie just recently introduced this creamy butters character and alluded to the fact that he's the producer, maybe creamy butters that he's producing, but you're saying that he's

more of the head of the pod squad, the Facebook group. Do you know anything else about this? So I'll tell you this, I give you the quick background. And no one can ever produce, though, what EROC does. You got that EROC, you're the best. I actually, unfortunately, I haven't really seen all beef like two or three months. I know he was busy with all the Carl stuff

and everything going on, he was doing a lot of the tribute shows. So I actually haven't seen him for like three months. And we explained last time I was on the producing thing like I was never really the producer because I don't know how to produce. I have no background in radio. So after all that I was kind of just helping them out. Hey Mike, I'm looking to get X on the show. I'd reach out to them. I'd go there, set up the equipment and stuff. But as far as editing or any of that producing stuff, I didn't do unfortunately. And I haven't't really seen him but creamy butters is like super fan good dude always on Twitter always promote

no bee the brand the merchandise big fan of Carl and I don't think he's doing anything producing I think he's more just helping out with all the pod squad I know on the Facebook stuff I don't have Facebook but the Facebook pod squad is all creamy butters he runs that He has people calling into him. So he's just doing a lot of the behind the scenes stuff as just a great fan. As far as producing, I don't think really OP has a producer because most of the shows lately have been like the Instagram live shows and a show from Get Parts. And I think creamy butters, I think he's up in Boston.

All right. So the question that I have, and Mike, I hope I didn't cost you your relationship and your job with the OBSTER. Why have you not been in touch? You came on WATP, haven't talked to OBS since then? We've talked a couple of times. I actually don't think it was coming on the show because like I said, I defended him, not that I have to, but I didn't obviously ever speak ill of him on the show or whatever. I don't know if it was

after carl passed away he was doing his own thing for a while put now like the old best of shows and then i saw met lock you by the big that a huge carl benefit and then after that he went away for a little bit i went away for a bit and the past couple months you know you listen to you in california for the with guy for like a few days he was down in disney for a few days, he was here and there, he's only done

maybe, I'm gonna say maybe four or five shows in the past maybe four months where like that would live really, it get parts, and because of my work schedule, they just didn't fit, or he might be giving me the boot, I might be that jilted lover that doesn't realize that the other guy's cheating on him, you know. That's what I'm just gonna say, you go, you go, yeah, well we have a corrected because of my work schedule. He has even reached out to you That's all they do with your work schedule. He doesn't know You know, I'm probably that guy like no he'll come back to me I hope so we've texted here and there he seems pretty busy for now that you

It's my tension. I might have got the boot without even knowing it Mike, I'm gonna make a prediction that you're gonna be on here doing an Opie radio segment with me in a couple months time. No, I'm feeling... I'm feeling really good for you to the dark side. Real quick. So the reason I wanted to have you on here with Eric, because both you guys guys know OP very well and know him personally and you would just talked about the fact that he was doing all these Carl tributes and then he hasn't done a lot of live shows Where do you where is he gonna take this thing next if if both you guys if you have ideas on what you think OP is doing in this transition period right now

Eric you want to go first you're the senior guy I respect you already no idea what he's going to do I like I barely heard anything that he's been doing anymore. Right after Carl died, of course, everybody went over there and listened to see what they had to say. And then I saw for a while that he just was doing Carl stuff. So if that's what he needed to do, then, you know, going into the new year now, like Carl's gone and Mike's gone and Westwood one's gone

and and and Nourad doesn't even show up anymore for anything that I thought he was supposed to come to the package and he just kind of went MIA on him. Yeah. I don't know. I mean, he'll, he's good at trying to figure out the next thing and it's never what you expect. Like, all right, well, somebody in his position, he'll go do this and then he'll go do the exact opposite of that Every single time so he'll find something that seems logical and then go the other direction and that's what he's gonna do

I don't know. I don't really know what he's going so Mike before I get your take I do want to point out that it's well documented keep the cop Reached out to O.B. After Carl's passing that it's well documented. Keith the cop reached out to OP after Carl's passing, offered him a job to come onto compound media where Eric works on the Anthony Kumia show. And do you have any insight into that? It wasn't as blatant as what OP said too, by the way.

He's like Carl Dodd and then Keith just reached out. It's like, hey, we need to do this. That's what I want to hear. Talk to him later the while for that. And then he said, you know what? I don't know what he's going to do at this point. Let's keep floated that idea and then reached out to Opet shortly after Carl Dye.

But it wasn't like immediately like, hey, Aaron, your friend died. Let's do business together. It wasn't like that at all. I thought it was, I mean, it was a little overzealous, but I understand, look, business is business. You got to do what you got to do. And if he took offense to that for some reason, I don't know why he took offense to that, but,

like I don't know why he does anything he does anymore. I don't know why he's got that. It's just I don't know, not him anymore. I don't know where his mindset is at, but that's all it was. It was just like, hey, just, you know, going into, it was more like looking into what we're at now. What's going to happen in the new year? You know, everything changed for him this past year. Why don't we just reach out to him again and see if maybe we can start talking

about something. And it just wasn't the case. So, nobody. Yeah. And to piggyback on that, Eric, you know, the perfect. And I don't know if Ope took the wrong way. Him and Carl were really close. So, but me and Keith, because of the same, we have the same background for our real real jobs we've been in contact with each other for a while and this is been on for way before the tragic passing of Carl you know Keith would hit me up like hey let's we should do that beer that this is the infamous beer for five years that been trying to have you like do let's set this up so it was never like Carl died hey I just saw on Twitter Carl died like Eric said piggybacked on Twitter, Carl died. Like Eric said, piggybacking completely.

Keith has been in constant contact. I came, Mike, let's link this up. Let's do this. I know he was never interested in it. I guess he was offended by when Keith sent it. But like he said, you can't tell someone how they can be offended, but Keith always reiterated, like, hey, do what you have to do for the rest of the year.

Get yourself together. But hey, 2020, let's get the brand back together. Let's do something. Doesn't have to be every second of the day. You don't have to do four hours a day. We'll do something here and there. Nothing was malicious about him sending that message out to him.

No, no, no, no. I was on that group text with him. It was, you know, Keith, Keith wrote the longest text ever was, you know, sending my condolences, but hey, I'm putting this out there out there i would love you know to link up and let's chat let's just meet up and that was with keep even said let's meet up and do some for twenty twenty

i guess hope did take offense to it i don't know i mean i were all different with how quick someone can text you about something but like i said it well i don't personally i think it was like holy crap we gotta do this right now crawl died let's get along while he's vulnerable i didn't take it that like holy crap. We got to do this right now. Carl died. Let's get him on while he's vulnerable. I didn't take it that way, but maybe he'll be okay. Well, in OP's defense, he has been memorializing Carl for seven and a half months now.

So to him, the body is still warm. He doesn't realize it. No, it's not that he just recently died. It's just that you keep having the fucking parties for him. And it's been months. So maybe he's a little delusion on that side of things Remember Carl when I came on last time it was right after Carl passed and you said what's open to do and I told you obsidian for the rest of the year

He just wants to finish up with Carl stuff and then 2020 saw something new so he kind of had in the back of his mind. He wanted to you know Carl got him out of his rut when everything he got fired. He didn't know if he was going to podcast and Carl really was the one pushing like, dude, let's put the mic in front of us and let's just kick it. So Carl kind of jump started to get going again. So I guess he wanted to do that tribute to. This is my question that I want to throw out there because Eric, you said he never does what you think he's gonna do. It's always something different. No.

And when he started the podcast, it was eight months after he was fired, Westwood one picked him up. We're gonna do an OP radio podcast. And I understand that because why wouldn't you go into podcasting? He said he was turning down radio gigs and he probably saw an opportunity to have a career like Joe Rogan or Deck Shepard, where he could be a podcaster that made good money doing that.

I don't even think it was that. I don't think it was looking for the much. Honestly, with him a lot of time, it isn't about the money, it's a weird thing. Doing the podcast was more of like, I'm not going to do how, do it like how other podcasts do it. I'm not gonna do it like radio was. I'm

going to do something completely different. And I get that mindset. I don't think it was executed the right way. I don't think it was either a mindset of it of him of where he was going with it. I get it. Like I get that that that's the creative part of it. It's just I don't think it was executed. You don't think that going into a crowded bar and telling them to turn the music off so that you could touch your body Is it a zoom recorder? Is it a good way to execute that? Did he really do that? Yes.

Yeah, none of what I've seen or heard him do this year was really for The for the company for the audience for anybody subscribing to it. It was all for him. And I'm not saying that as a shot. I'm just saying looking at his mindset. Everything he did and Carl's made a career right now of complaining about his show where he said, why are you doing that? And that's part of the mindset for him,

which I don't get, but that's what's built into him is to I got to do something that everybody else isn't expecting. Or if they want me to do this I can't do that I have to do the complete opposite of it all of this is really just for being him and I mean, it's a podcast for him. It's not for everybody else It's a podcast for him and I guess if you understand that then you you you you You read teach yourself on how to listen to a program and and then you get what he's doing

So just if you go into a show just realize this is all for him not for anybody else I got one last thing that I want to talk to you guys about so Mike is a super fan and Eric has been around the open Anthony show for a long time There's a specific segment that they used to do that really bugged the shit out of me I believe it was called the virus is that when they would bring you into studio and put you on the spot So what open would do and I don't think anybody else was in on this because it didn't seem like Jim or Anthony We're excited about this segment, but they played the baby elephant. Yeah, okay They've played the baby elephant song

Have Eric come into the studio and then try to humiliate you by trying to have you come up with a joke off the cuff and OP would just sit there and badger you about, hey, this is in the news, come up with a joke. Meanwhile, OP could never do that. He never came up with a joke about something that was in the news off the cuff. So was that all just projecting his own insecurities?

What was that? Thank I do think actually I mean a lot of a lot of things in there were projecting And he was under the guise of look we had four at one point almost six hours of programming a day that we had to fill Yeah, so you have to do whatever you can especially if it was a slow news day that we had to fill. Yeah. So you have to do whatever you can, especially if it was a slow news day or any of us didn't have a lot going on life-wise to bring stories to the show. You have to do whatever it is to make something and hopefully, you know, you throw against the wall

and see if it sticks the old adage goes. But yeah, there would be times where you could see he takes out his frustration with the show, with management, whatever. And he would take it out on me, he would take it out on Roland. And again. This isn't like oh, whoa is me and I'm being bullied or anything I knew the job. I had to play along with it. I was doing you know I made a good living. Oh my what the fuck you doing over there, buddy? Can you help me out just be a little bit quiet?

I want to give you the audience Seriously That's my I asked those on mute. That's my bi-pologi Sorry, I'm so sorry. I'm the flops on the floor and died Yeah, I know Jesus Christ. I was trying to put up with that. I just got ridiculous. I apologize. I thought I was on mute I so did you I did you ever like say anything to anyone like why are we still doing this bet nobody likes it? It's fucking ridiculous. Oh, yeah, I said it all the time all the time okay you know I was constantly told it's like stretch it out

make it as awkward as possible because a couple of times I had something I'm ready to go and that that was the whole thing it was like don't do don't give the punchline because then the thing ends and then if you I'm sure somebody is compiled it online but if you can see towards the end of that bit all of a sudden I came in one time I just didn't want to do it and They threw out something I threw out the punchline right away and it was dead silent And all of a sudden he goes well, I guess that's the end of that thing and then I walked out of the studio It's nice nice Yeah, Mike do you remember that bet? I don't I remember bringing Eric in I don't remember the moment you nailed the punch line though. that, Pat? I don't, I remember bringing Eric in.

I don't remember the one when you nailed the punch line. Oh, yeah. I don't remember that either. You'll feel it. I always felt bad for you. It's violent. And they're like, because you can see Ant and Norton just kind of go like that this was happening again.

And then when the bit stopped, their eyes kind of got wide. Like, wait, is this the end? This is the end. All right. Well, and then he would go, all right, thank you. Their eyes kind of got wide like what is this the this is the end All right, well, and then he would go all right. Thank you and then I'd walk out to the music and then they'd have to move on because the bit was over God, I wanted so bad for you to just be like, I don't know what do you got? What's your fucking joke on this? Give me an example of what you're looking for, please That's kind of where the tequila and donut day bit that people still send me stuff about

When I drank a whole bottle tequila for the morning show and just started you know lashing at everybody That's kind of where it all came out And even that tone down compared to some of the stuff I had Yeah, you are soldier for them though for everything with the Tony Danza stuff running into different studios You were soldier forever with that with ONA. Yeah, getting almost getting arrested at Tony Danza Almost getting arrested at Fox for stealing Guy Fieri's birthday cake And let me get into my face live on Fox and friends. Yeah You're like the stunt boy slash producer

What was that dude on zero? Yeah, Greg T the fried fried boy. That was Eric. He was like a little bit guy. Well, a lot of the guys on the show were good at prepping and bringing content as far as stuff to talk about, but nobody wanted to do any of that stuff. So I said, all right, well, I'll do it. Nobody else wanted to do it. And what did I care? I could go and do whatever I wanted,

and you can't say anything because it's all under the guys of the show. So some of it really sucked. Some of it was fun. You know, I can go and do whatever I want it and you can't say anything because it's all under the guys of the show so You know some of it's really sucked some of it was fun and That's it was the opian Anthony show. All right. We got to behind the scenes gas today on w a tp Oh, they gas I can't imagine anyone enjoying this. This is really boring You see in we got to get back to playing Hey Todd clips and making fun of Todd Pattengill.

Even worse. But Mike, thanks again for coming on. Mike and I are buddies now. Fan of WATP loves every segment, especially the OP radio segment. Nah, there's not a hundred percent. Oh, that's actually good. When you make fun of him, but I enjoy your show,

I said you put so much prep into the show. I enjoy it Ah, thanks buddy I'll keep up to good work man. You doing a great job on your show, too guys. I'll talk to you soon Talk to you soon. See you then. Be good guys. I'll be right back Yeah, I think I'm fired Carl. Oh, yeah, for sure I don't know what he was thinking coming out the show It kind of gives us a little bit too much credibility. He texted me and said, Hey, I just did the podcast. I said, well, are you crazy? I'm like, he's not going to talk to you anymore.

No, of course not. You're not the other me. That's what's going to happen. I went and we heard the episode and, you know, it wasn't really that bad at all. You know, Mike wasn't sitting on him. You weren't sitting on him. It was just you were being a fan of all this craziness going on, trying to find out what Mike knew and what the hell is going on here. And then when we started hearing that's like, I haven't heard from him in a while, I'm like, of course you didn't. What did you expect?

That's so fragile. Yeah, he's so fragile. Yes, he really is. I mean, a lot of talented people who have been very successful doing television radio are so like they built not only do they have a bubble built around them, they build another bubble themselves around them. And it just you got to learn how to handle people. That's what the role of an executive producer or a PR rep or any of those kind of positions learned. So how to handle these people,

because you think a normal person will act like this. Well, that's a normal person. A talented, creative, deranged person will act like this. So you have to handle it this way here. And that's what happened. If he got the slightest, I haven't talked to the guy since, this is a story for another time,

but the last day of his show, when he stormed out, he left all these comics in the studio and he just picked up his stuff, walked out, told me to play the old rage against the machine music. He popped into my studio, which was connected, but two different doors. Yelded me, and I'm not going into that, but Yelded me, and then slammed the door, walked out, and that was the last I've seen of them. Interesting. And it's because of any kind of doubt that gets placed in his head, he automatically thinks the worst. And when you try to reason with him sometimes, he doesn't process it or he's not, you know, susceptible to the fact that you're trying to explain

to, you know, something on air is different than something off air, which they preach all the time. And then when something happens in reality, some people can't handle it. Would I sit down and talk with them? Yeah, absolutely. You know, there's some things that we need to sort out between me and him, but I don't go attacking him. I don't go publicly trashing him, you know, and going after his show for whatever reason or whatever he's doing, you know, he gave me a great opportunity. And for a while, we were good friends and everything.

It's just he, his mind changed and he went in a different direction based on all of this stuff. And what can you do, you know, you just got to move on. I love how naive Mike Safo is though that he thinks he could just like hop on my show, defend the guy, which is what his goal was. It was a come on and be like,

hey, it's not so bad. But then, you know, to think that you could actually, it's like you working at Compound Media, all people never talk to you again. You work for Anthony. I mean, he's the worst person to ever, well, actually now I guess Sam is the worst person ever exists is what OP said recently, but everybody's the worst person I know it's great to

put somebody out the day of the week it's either Jim or Sam or Roland or but it's funny that you would think that you would ever talk to Opia again you won't you took a job at compound that's it it's done well that's see that's the difference though I would of course everybody else would grow up near Sunson hey we need to talk about some Of course. Everybody else wanted to grow up near Sunson. Hey, we need to talk about some things. And if he still wanted to be mad and and yell or whatever, I still go and meet him and talk to him. Like I tried it even about a almost a year later.

I think we talked about it on an actual make this real quick, because I know everybody wants to go back to the Todd stuff. But around October of 2018, somebody that listens to his podcast wrote me on Twitter and said, Hey, Opie said he's going to be going to New York Comic Con at the Jacob Javits Center in Manhattan. You two should meet up and try to do a cross thing or whatever. Now, I do my show every year live from Comic Con for a few of sex, I'm now for I hard radio. And I was like, well, we're gonna be there.

And I sent him a, I responded to the tweet with tag, Tim, I said, what's that you? Nothing happened, didn't hear from him. Next day I wake up, my producer writes me, he goes, you should go look at OP's Instagram story. Okay, why? He's like, well, he's, he's shitting all over you. What, what did I do?

So I go and I find the story. And he's all mad that I sent it in a tweet. Instead of he's like, he has my number. He could have text me. This is all, no, he could have personally asked me stuff. This is all bullshit to try to tie his name to my name and get some publicity. What the fuck is he talking about? Who wants to tie their name to Opie's name? It's not going to get you anywhere. Who wants to tie their name to Opie's name? It's not gonna get you anywhere. So I sent him a text, finally. I said, I don't know what you're talking about here.

I said, one of your listeners wrote me said, you're gonna be in the same place that I'm doing my show. I offered to either come on your show or you could come on my show or we don't have to go on either show. We could just meet up and talk. That's all it was. And he got a little upset saying that he wished I would have texted him instead of putting it out on Twitter

I don't understand what was so bad about that. That's all he's been doing his stuff on Twitter He doesn't talk to anybody and I wrote something very nice I'm like I'm for what do you say and it's all an excuse because he doesn't want to confront any of this shit He knows he was a total douchebag to everyone and there's a lot of people who have a lot of gripes about how we treated them. He doesn't want to deal with it so instead of just pretend that you handled it wrong. Well Kate the cop reached out to me but he did it the wrong time and Eric wanted to do this thing but he posted it on Twitter the wrong way. He's like, all right stop with all the fucking excuses dude. Are you gonna talk to these people or not and you're not?

He was, look I didn't even need to but I felt like like, you know what, it's been a year, why not? I extended the all of a round. I was like, hey, you're gonna be there. Let's talk. He just didn't wanna do it. So I'm not gonna go chase an after guy. None of us are. If he said, hey, look, we need to talk and sort some things

out to anybody. I'm sure anybody from the show would say, okay. And then sort's work something out privately where they would go and talk. But it's all down to him. He doesn't want to do it, and that's fine. Everyone else is doing their own thing, and they've all moved on. And best of luck to him.

But if you wanted to, we'd be willing to. And that comes back to what you said would Keith. That's all Keith was doing. He's like, he saw, oh, it was in a bad spot. And he thought it was a bad spot and said, hey, look, no, all this is going on. Maybe this is time for us to sit down and talk again, talk again and talk things out. And he took a fence to it and I'm sorry that he did. He did. That's what I'm saying. He didn't take a fence. We just don't want to deal with that.

So when he said he pretends that he's offended and that's his way of not having to deal with that. Well, you know, best of luck to him. I don't know what to say. The guy gave me a great opportunity. I can't shit on him for, you know, he did a lot for me. Sure. It sucks that it worked out this way. I gotta say, I'm not sure what Keith thinks is gonna happen here.

I understand that the Opie and Anthony brand, there's a lot of people who love the Opie and Anthony show in many of its different iterations and would be excited about that but at this point Anthony's fanbase is so different than OP's small shitty fanbase. It doesn't make a lot of sense to me that they would bring those two together again because OP started to reinvent himself into almost like a Todd Pentango kind of guy like a nice guy show where hey we're all just friends and buddies and join the pod squad and we'll watch a Netflix movie together.

Like, what the fuck is going on here? This is so off-brand. And you think about what's going on in a compound media, it's the exact opposite of that. Look, they're not, nobody in that position enjoys conflict, like on the air is one thing, but when it becomes real, they can't handle it or don't want to handle it and choose not to address it and that's fine but that seems to be what he did.

It's like all this happened he felt he did nothing wrong and he decided to do a complete overhaul and go in this other direction where you know everything is I hate the term, safe space, but it's a safer, nicer area around him that he's building and it's all about him, and more power to him. Good luck. So there's a guy named Wat, he's from Russia, he's in our discord, and he recorded an OP radio in Prussian. And this is his impression of the OP radio show and Fran Drescher has been a frequent caller to our show recently so he brought

in OP with Fran Drescher and I'm not gonna play this whole thing in his line but we'll we'll bear with it for a minute here. Hey Karleruno it's me your buddy OP and this is how I talk and I'm voice mailing in while recording a new episode at an OP radio podcast which is it's doing fantastically by the way we're pulling great numbers and I'm here with world-famous celebrity friend Drescher. Hey, hey, hey, Kali-Poo, and we're recording a tribute to every Every person has ever died in the history of humanity, man It's it's gone good. I'm definitely not using this as an excuse to to hang out with world famous celebrity

friend Drescher No, for such classic films as Jack and spinal tap I definitely I'm really just I'm so sad about, you know, Carla Wies, Jesus Christ, all the people that died in 9-11. All right, you get the point. The thing that cried to you about that bit was the background noise. Yeah, I was going to say the sound effect up until the dog barking. Dog barking was great. Hearing the the sound effects up until the dog barking dog barking was great

You're hearing the the traffic in the back. I'm like, well, that's pretty accurate Okay, and then the dog barking and then the impression kind of just So apart the impression is terrible But he but Opie went to Mike Boshetti's house once and you heard a dog bark for 20 minutes at a row I've that episode. So it's pretty accurate. Really? Oh, yeah. Look, see, this is that it goes back to the, then we got to move on to the Todd stuff. I'm sure your people don't want to hear anymore.

There's fuck them. That goes back to the fact that, you know, the people who were responsible for talking and putting things together and having to write people around them, we're not the people who knew how to do recording or engineering or Michael levels or any of that stuff. And that's exactly what he was doing, where you're hearing all the, if you're hearing dog sounds constantly

while you're still trying to plow through, it's bad enough when you see like a three second clip on the news where they try to get a witness reaction to something and there's a dog barking. But if you're doing 20 minutes of it, how do you listen to that? And there was no substance at all. They were like walking up the stairs. He was introducing himself to Mike's mother.

It's like, you could take all of this out. It's super obnoxious. Mike Sappho's house? No, Mike Boshetti. Oh, Boshetti's the best in the worst at the same time. I agree. Don't understand how he manages to pull that off. He's on Ardys podcast now.

Yeah. He can be the best part and the worst part in the same segment while he's doing it. Well, he's got some mental things going on. He's a good guy. He's a good guy. We like Mike. Let's get back to the Todd. Hey Todd, I keep on calling the Todd show.

Let's get back to Hey Todd. And getting back to this thing where he does these prank phone calls, there's another one. Phone scams. The phone scam. Which by the way, I heard some, I was checking out some of your episodes before coming on here. You're using the bed now, I hear.

Oh, I use, I use this one. Oh, Oh, Oh, Oh, Oh, Oh, Oh,

Oh, Oh, Oh, Oh, Oh, Oh, Oh, Oh, Oh, Oh, Oh, Oh, Oh, Oh, Oh, Oh, Oh, Oh, Oh, Oh, Oh, Oh, Oh, Oh, Oh, Oh, Oh, Oh, Oh, Oh, Oh, Oh, Oh, Oh, Oh, Oh, Oh, Oh, Oh, Oh, Oh, Oh, Oh, Oh, Oh, Oh, Oh, Oh, Oh, Oh, Oh, Oh, Oh, Oh, Oh, Oh, Oh, Oh, Oh, Oh, Oh, Oh, Oh, Oh, Oh, Oh, Oh, Oh, Oh, Oh, Oh, Oh, Oh, Oh, Oh, Oh, Oh, Oh, Oh, Oh, Oh, Oh, Oh it doesn't have anywhere else to go, which I've given you a couple of clips, you can do

that a little bit later. So when the phone scams would end, you would hear that, wow, that was to let you know that the phone scams over and they would recap what was going on there before hitting a jingle going to break. So that bed was from an ocean spray commercial in the 90s. And in the late 90s, they were changing everything off of carts to digital. Now, carts looked like eight track tapes that you'd play in the studio. So they were throwing all of these out.

I said, what are you doing with all of this stuff? Oh, we're just going to throw all this out. Can I take them? Like, yeah, sure. They were just going to throw them out. So I took boxes of carts back to my house, brought it to my college radio station and dubbed everything off the cart. So now I have or had their entire production library for his sound effects is clips and all that stuff. So when we started doing

joctober and the phone scams and then we had that thing, I had somebody from PLJ write me some some grow road means he goes, how do you have this this stuff we're going to send you a cease and Desist and whatever I said good luck Blaine it's so then it became a joke where Norton even did his own phone scams if you can find those one day Where he was doing the stupid voice the stupid made-up nails and then it would be something so tragic that it was hilarious like there was no joke to it Call somebody to tell him that their kids got hit by a UPS truck. And then the mom would be screaming, what in here? Bow. And that's how the whole thing went in.

And then they stopped using it because we were using it so much. It's not that far off from what dad does, though. So in this phone scam, the premise is they bought a tree from a Christmas tree shop or whatever you would call that and they bring it home and there's an eagle's nest in the Christmas tree. So he calls to complain about this eagle's nest and makes a reference that nobody could possibly get. Because the mother eagle is in it. What? Now this eagle is attacking my little boy.

There's no eagle in a tree. It chases him around the house and pecs him on the melon like that episode of Dick Van Dyke. You know when the bird kept assaulting little Richie? I keep it in there. What the fuck is he talking about? An episode of Dick Van Dyke? He would throw these little references into things to make it seem so exaggerated and flabbergasting and you know

Like oh, he's so crazy, but it was all old stuff nobody knows about. I mean how old is fucking Todd Pattengill He's referencing the Dick Van Dyke show that was in black and white for Christ's You done with that clip or do you have something? I am done. What do you got, buddy? All right, because going with the boomer stuff here, if you go to clips 19 and 20 that I gave you, yeah, it shows you that how detached from reality Todd has become. Well, I also blame marijuana.

Why, what? For a lot of the decisions, because there's a lot of millennials that I don't know if you realize there's so many of them do weed. Well, yeah, most of them now. Wow. It's legalized in a lot of places. There's a lot of places, but they're stoned all the time.

So you can't have any responsibility that you just screwed up. It's amazing to me. Yeah, how many of them do weed now? And then they vape weed? and it's everything. They're all about it. Waking bake. Nobody calls it weed anymore. That's a good point. These fucking kids are all doing the weed. There's so many different things that they call it because everyone, you know, if anything, you're going to generalize people still do pot. But there's all these different strains and names and stuff. That's what people refer to. when you say when you this is an old person thing do the weed and they vape the weed

It's like what are you to what who is your audience? Who are you talking to Eric you want to go You do the weed Play the next clip they're now legalizing it, but now the cigarettes are kicking back because now they're raising the cigarettes to Being 21 years older older Congress is putting that in so it's gonna be 21 years or older like it is in Hawaii right now But now it'll be United States wide. So we're gonna be stone for Christmas. Mm-hmm. Everybody's high high So we're gonna be stone for Christmas

Purfosely led this story into this dumb prep service parody song. So doing the old man, they do the weed. I don't even think that's a bit. I think that's really him. Leading into the cigarette thing is him leading is a bit leading into this song here. This is what he does. He can't have a conversation because if you start talking about it, it's like we can start with this, we can talk a little bit,

and then I got a steer to get to this jingle or to this punch out thing or to this phone scam or to this parody song that we have there. You can't have a conversation knowing where the end point is, right? That's like, all right, we'll talk about this for a little bit

and then eventually wrap it up. If you go, well, the whole point of our entire conversation is to get to this parody song And you're like, I just wasted and that was like a six minute conversation. I'll give you another example of that So they're talking about Now remember that Todd's daughter is the co-host right? So they're talking about how Todd used to read the Grinch to his daughters every year at Christmas time. So do you want to set this up Amanda? Well every year when we were growing up you would read Haley and I the Grinch.

We have you know a book that my your mom my grandma gave to me for my first Christmas we still have the original copy. Thirty years old. I can hear the Grinch in my head, I hear it in your voice. Sorry. Okay, so they're telling this cute little anecdote about growing up, but there's a reason for that Eric, it's because he's actually going to read the fucking Grinch on his show. And I just wanna play a quick example of that.

It's with all produced with music bads, with him doing the shitty Grinch voice. For some reason, Amanda sings a song, there doesn't even exist in Grinch, because she just needs a sing all the fucking time. But I'll give you just a quick taste of what this sounds like. For he knew every whom down in Hulville beneath was busy now hanging a misotory. And they're hanging their stockings. He said with a sneer, tomorrow is Christmas it's practically here. Then he growled with his Grinch fingers nervously drumming.

I must find some way to doubt Christmas from coming! Who the fuck would want to hear this? Who is this for? Todd bansied himself, and I think he still does. He's one of those all around entertainer. Yes, he can sing, he can dance, he can, he does comedy. He does all of these things. He does all the voices, he's an impressionist.

Yeah, he thinks he does it all. Things he, yeah, he's a one man band per se. And coming to there, it's like, we'll do this radio drama, like a traditional Christmas story that will get people talking and they'll get spread online because nobody's doing this anymore there's a reason nobody's doing this anymore you see how slow despite the voices and everything you see how slow the pace is oh it took forever you and with the separation of the music before getting to

the next part people don't listen to things like that anymore. Things have to be faster and move at a rapid pace to keep your attention. And now he's doing this. Which is most of what this show is. Most of the show is just bit, bit, bit, bit, bit, bit, bit, with like you were talking about, they'll talk for four and a half minutes,

but it has to lead to an endpoint that gets them into their next bit. Right. So this is the crazy thing. And I can't wait to lead to an endpoint that gets them into their next bit. So this is the crazy thing, and I can't wait to talk to you about this because they did the Grinch Read thing on the Monday show. I'm listening to the Thursday show before that, the week before that,

and they're setting up the fact they're gonna do this live Grinch reading. Now first off, there's nothing about this that is live. It's over produced and edited. So it's all nonsense, but let's do what they say. Because Monday we got to do the Grinch. Good thing you're not reading that like I am. Yeah, but I got to do something.

Don't miss that, folks. That'll be a Monday show. We're trying to mention that every day so you know we're going to do a live reading of the Grinch. Yeah. And it's live. So we do the show, you know show live to tape the day before. So what that means is when we start, we just don't stop.

Like no matter what happens, it just happens. We don't stop so we call that live to tape. Yeah, there's no editing. Right. We don't go back on, we don't edit it. That doesn't make any sense, Rick. He says there's no editing, it's only editing. This show is only editing.

There are times when I was pulling some clips for you where I was listening and I hear, I'm like, wait, they edit whatever the house guy was talking about. I heard the edit. Now it's hidden because they play the music beds behind everything that they do. But if you're sitting there with the headphones and you're going through and you're like,

oh wait, they cut it off, they did an edit here. So there's a lot of editing so Eric they say We do the show why to tape the day before the show air because they want you to think that it's just like the old radio days Right, however you were able to fight episodes to end come out for days on their server. You want to talk about that? No days on their server. You want to talk about that? So when Carl asked me to do this and he's like, you get the subscription service, do you have a way we can get some of the episodes? I said, yeah, I can do that. And then I looked on the server and I realized that there were episodes there that weren't supposed to air yet. So I went, all right, downloaded everything

said to the over. I said, so apparently we're going into the future because here are episodes that haven't even showed up on his Service yet and they're right here for us to break apart and enjoy. You sent me the December 23rd Episode two weeks ago. Yeah, and these assholes are talking about how on Monday we got to do the Grinch live Like did you fucking you recorded that last month? What are you talking about? Um, I have a couple other clips. If you want to take a look, better calling. So what Todd used to do, especially after breaking up,

Scott and Todd, is he had to have the funny. He had to have the joke. And when he had the joke, that was when he would cue his producer to hit the jingle to go to break. So nobody else could, as they say, tag the joke or add on to it. Right. So he would have this really weird punchline. And then the jingle would hit. Nobody else could, as they say, tag the joke or add on to it, right? So he would have this really weird punch line and then the jingle would hit

and it would cut off the conversation very abruptly and go into traffic and it was so annoying. It didn't make any sense to do this. So I gave you a couple of examples that he's still doing this now on his podcast and he's punching out of his own show on his podcast to go to a jingle Just to come back to reset to talk about something else. Uh, can do cut nine. He gave me no answers

I almost asked for a manager Sent to Santa probably at a location near you Oh, I listen to hate Todd on my sale oh my god Punches out of it like you didn't finish the conversation and he hit something because there's no end to it And then I love that I that saw this started playing there. It's like instructional for Boomers to learn how to actually stream the show of what's the hate that on my cell phone You don't know the app and listen to it in your car or through bluetooth like okay

There's another clip number 14 now this he told a six-minute story that was a hundred percent fake about a producer who doesn't exist When I'm through this whole long tyrant you're not gonna hear the whole thing Thank God doesn't exist. When I'm through this whole long tyrant, you're not going to hear the whole thing, thank God. This is just the very tail end of it where he punches out again because he doesn't know how to end the story. At the end, the guy come up and give me a dollar. No! He's just, he's got a tip.

He goes, you don't really know the song. No, I don't know anything. I'm just following Larry. Oh, we know Larry from church. Oh, let's do what we do. Everybody following Larry. Oh, we know Larry from church Everybody knows Larry Appreciate it Larry. Thank you very much Goes into the jingle the

Resets with a bed and then still talks about the thing for two more minutes Like what was the point of this? Eric, we haven't really talked enough about how this show flows and what kind of nonsense it is. This is an example of the level of jokes that are told by Todd and the all the top laughter that comes out of, I mean both co-hosts, but especially how son this one,

he didn't get the joke at first. Todd explains it, and as you know, Eric, when you explain a joke, it makes it way funnier. Give me a still get-am-all, you just have to wait a little longer. He's talking about the fact that they're going to play all of these songs that people know from the old radio show that are Christmas theme and Christmas related, and he says,

we're not going to play them all today. We're going to play them throughout the next few episodes. You'll hear them. So that's what's leading up into this joke. You mean you still get him all, you just have to wait a little longer. You know, it's like your teeth. Teeth?

Yeah, you still get him, you just have to wait. Ha ha ha ha ha ha. They come in. I didn't know on Housey. What the fuck was funny about that? You don't get that at all, yeah, it makes no fucking sense. Everything that Todd says has to be immediately followed by cackling laughter. If you just play that, if you play Clip 16 that I have,

kind of, is a companion piece to this, play that. Orange is the new black, the jail one is very popular in Barbados and Dominica, very paradisial places. To what? Very paradisial. Paradise is not a word. Paradise is like you live in paradise. That's the skin between you.

No! No! No! No! No! No! No! No!

No! They're laughing too hard at a non-joke. He couldn't even think of a punchline. He has to say this, like she knows this is so bad, she's going now, now telling him to punch into the jingle to get them out of it. Yeah, he didn't even cover the punchline. He wanted to come up with something, had nothing for it, and then they have to act like, oh yeah, I know you're gonna do.

Like it was the most hilarious thing uh you know that's the skin between your ah what was the pause what was the joke what was he referring to there there is no joke I guess that's where in the song where earlier they say that he's a little bit naughty it's like whoa he was talking about skin somewhere it's getting real naughty around here It's like, whoa, you was talking about skin somewhere. It's getting real naughty around here. I put together a, what I call a cackel comp. And this is a super cut of just a manda cacling because that's her main role on the show,

is to make sure that she over the top fake laughs at everything that's uttered. And this is how I would sum up this entire show. I'm not sure we could do it. And this is how I would sum up this entire show. I'm not showing a damn. I'm just a sata- Yeah, I have to like train singer. Wow! And then I'll come.

Yeah. And I'm just like a smog. Yeah. And I'm just like a smog. And I'm just like a smog. And I'm just like a smog. And I'm just like a smog. And I'm just like a smog savage. I'm sorry. I'm sorry. I'm sorry. The top of this level to you. I'm sorry.

I'm sorry. I'm sorry. I'm sorry. I'm sorry. I'm sorry. I'm sorry. This woman stinks. That is the epitome of what we used to call a hole.

Yes. That is the, oh, guy. No, if you were the woman on a show that was trying to, now guys calm down, we're going too far, like she's trying to keep the guys in order, otherwise they were a cackling laugh track like that. That is horrendous. Well, there's another thing too, though.

She's also signaling to all the female listeners in which there's 100% female listeners. She's signaling to them that it's okay to laugh, because if she ever goes, then the listeners might be upset and stop listening. So no matter what is said, even though she tries to keep it under control, she also has to go, okay, guys, that's enough. That is an audible applause sign.

Right. Okay. So the other thing is that they like singing on their show. Like you mentioned, Todd fancies himself, this all-around entertainer, and typically radio DJs don't also sing songs, but not in Todd's fucking world. And of course, he needs his co-host to praise him first. This is Christopher telling him how amazing a singer he is. What am I supposed to do?

You could do any of that. I know. You guys are like train singers. What am I what one of my supposed to do? You could do any of that You guys are like train singers you guys are amazing You guys both are amazing. All right, so house says they're both amazing singers and all three of them have to sing their own fucking song for some reason this is Todd and He even sings like affected. It's so obnoxious. Where the kids jingle belling And everyone telling you You be a good cheer

It's the most wonderful time Of the It's the happiest season of all And again, I'm going to point out the mixes off on that. Yeah, well, apparently this was live. Like that music was played. Yeah, I'm sure there were karaoke styling it, but it's buried in the mix.

He loves to hear himself. He loves himself sing. He used to do all the parody songs. Yeah, like I think some of the prep services had it where like here's with it's all prepared for you. Here's the music and here's the singer that we put to it or you could take the music bed here and here are the lyrics and do it yourself to make it seem like you do it. And that's what he did every single time was always his voice. It was never anybody else's parody stuff. And unless it was the Christmas stuff, which was sprinkling into these episodes,

which is a guy named Bob Rivers. I think he's either Portland or Seattle area there. And he put out all these parody songs that radio stations and radio shows were playing for years. But Todd couldn't just have somebody else's parody. He had to do it. And that's what this is here. He loves to sing anything he possibly can. Well, he also, at the, I'm gonna play a clip where at the end of him singing this song, listen to what a raving fan houses.

This is the type of co-host that a guy like OP needs. Someone who's going to be cheering for there, whatever they've just done. But he's so enthusiastic about this, it's so faking over the top. Woo! Boom! Wow! Yeah, that was terrible. I'm in this dance! That's man-cow-level shit of the co-hosts like, yeah! Woo! I know what that also is.

I know you have a band, you're a big music band, you punk music. So you know the super group, it's a cover group called me first in the Gimme Gimmies. Of course, Mike's in that band. Right. So at the end of most of their songs, they do great cover songs at the end when there's it's fading out or they're waiting for the big drum thing to hit at the end. The lead singer goes, yeah, yeah, like it was all obnoxious. It's exactly what this guy is doing, but he's not doing it as a goof. He's he's tried to be out of people and making good music. He's doing it in the back part of a studio. Makes no sense.

All right. Lastly, I want to play a rap off this bit is Amanda singing. So Amanda is very proud of herself as a singer. And I don't know if again, like you you mentioned she has to put on these voices but she sounds like a child. What are they giggling about? Yeah. Are they giggling about the voice she's doing? It's a little bit more like a little bit more like a little bit more like a little bit more like a little bit more like a little bit more like a little bit more like a little bit more

like a little bit more like a little bit more like a little bit more like a little bit more I'm waiting by. Yeah. What are they giggling about? Yeah. Are they giggling about the voice she's doing? It's uncomfortable. He also has this kind of crutch or habit, whatever you want to call, of when things are going in between the line, like during his own parodies or even the phone scam stuff, when they were playing it,

you hear them laugh and you're like, can you believe that? Like often the distance while the the calls going on or while the parodies going on It's something like when there's when there's no vocal and there's a little bit of instrumental and then the next verse kicks in He feels he has to fill the void in there. Yeah, so he has mics on and he's moved way far in the back And he has to make a comment so you know they're still there. They're still a part of it the way far in the back and he has to make a comment so you know they're still there, they're still a part of it. Eric, what else you got out of here, buddy? Well, if you want to wrap up the Todd stuff here, we had talked about how we were going to do the Todd show and then how I found out there were episodes that were up there that shouldn't have

been up there. Yeah, there's a little surprise for everybody if you want if you want to play cut 22 and feel free to stop it at any time if you want to comment on it, but play cut 22 January the second 2020 wow, I wonder how many times I'm gonna say 29 hold on That's fucking amazing this fucking lazy asshole already has Episodes for January in the fucking bag ready to go. Oh indeed he does A new decade is here Now normally we would share all the exciting

Fun things we did on New Year's and maybe house hasn't but a man has got two little kids I have no life so you know it was turn on channel seven watch stupid Ryan secret And you know just try to get through yesterday which a lot of football on so that was fun You know parades all over the holy shit what a fucking asshole none of these things have happened yet A lot of football on that was fun now if you're doing anything current He's all over the- Holy shit! What a fucking asshole! None of these things have happened yet! A lot of football on that was fun. Now if you're doing anything current, especially if you were on the morning, you talk about the football games, or at least you run down the scores in a fashion where people are like, oh yeah, whatever the big games were on New Year's Day, you had mentioned it a little bit.

Maybe there was an upset or something, you've pretending to be a football fan, but not really. What if something horrific happened? Like what if there was a tragedy or somebody died or someone's going on there? And then you're coming back January, saying like, oh, you know, nothing really happened yesterday. This is already in the can. I hope that Ryan Seacrest is deathly ill and is not on the show.

Because that will totally fuck this up. I'm kind of like a disaster movie about right when it's about the strike midnight, the ball snaps off the thing, falls off the building, rolls down time square, mose over a ton of people, and they're talking about, yeah, it's kind of boring. Uh, you know, like, could you imagine? Could you imagine some major event happens and he puts this episode out? We do it all live to tape. We call call a lot of tape.

Play the game for his bowl. this episode out, we're doing all live to tape, we call, call live to tape. The day before. The day before. Yeah. But I didn't get a chance to talk to housing about your new years, because you know, you went back to Florida. Yeah. And how was it exciting? Did you do anything fun or were you like a man?

No, I did a lot of fun. Uh-uh. Yeah, you're looking a little green around the gills. I'm a rough today. Yeah. By the way, you've used up all your sick days for the decade. Yeah, you've done a couple weeks before Christmas. He was fucking assholes. That pisses me off to no end. There, there, so this everything about this is fake. And I want to mention that the tagline for the show is real people, real funny. It's all fake. There's no, it's all fake laughter.

There's no more of this, but where they're going with this is they're talking to this house guy. He talks about they're already starting the new year with a complete lie and a fake story. Like he goes into the story about how he dropped a drink and then he went to pick up the drink, but he hit his head on the door knob and then the door open. Like it was like a like a three-stuages episode going on for here as they were trying to get into the studio today. So not only are they faking that they, you know, that they're current, they're also faking the stories of things that didn't happen. And this is an exciting story. If you're going to make something

up, be an interesting person. If I was going to pretend to be someone I'm not, I wouldn't be a more boring version of me. Well, that's impossible to do. Good point. Mother fucker. But that's a little surprise for you and for your listeners. That's hilarious. I don't know with this whole shit show of an episode because I'm on it. But you're getting an advance of the Hey Todd show for January 2nd, 2020, and you still have about a week left to wait for that program. So there you go, Todd. Merry Christmas. I love Todd, dude. He's like, yeah, it's hard to get used to saying 2020. Yeah, that's because it's not 2020. Are you fucking asshole?

I didn't, I only just gave you the little bit of the intro. I wasn't gonna go through the rest of the show because we went through like five episodes already and I'm gonna be gone. That's a lot. But I bet you somewhere in that episode is like, I'm still riding 19 on my checks. Right.

Asshole. So wait, how come, I have to ask this, how come you're able to find these episodes I'm still riding 19 on my checks. Right. As whole. So wait, how come I have to ask this? How come you're able to find these episodes on the server? Could anyone find them? Perhaps. I don't know, actually. The way it's set up, I don't think you can, but I looked into something early on during his pre-sale

that something changed, I guess, with his server, and some stuff come up on a feed. Oh, this is all in advance. Cool. We know how it now. What a fucking loser. It's amazing. Alright, the last thing that I want to play is he sets up the episode on Monday before

Christmas with this bit. Okay, thanks, thanks everyone. These are the auditions for the Grinch. There are several parts you can read for the narrator. You can read for the Grinch in the Luhu. When you come up to the microphone, just say your name and what part you're reading for. F***.

Okay, so he's setting up an opportunity for him to do all of his amazing impressions that he does. And again, none of this is live. setting up an opportunity for him to do all of his amazing impressions that he does. And again, none of this is live. It's all pre-recorded and heavily edited. And the impressions are terrible, but also there's no jokes to it. There's never jokes. There's never jokes.

There's never jokes and there's never a story to it. It's just him doing a voice and saying absurd things. He thinks carries the content of whatever they're doing. Now, this is scripted. He doesn't do much stuff off the cuff. Because when he does, he realizes it doesn't do anything and he punches out and hits a sweeper or a jingleship. That's a good point. But I like this. It's like, I'll do obnoxious voices and you play the straight guy.

You just react like I'm a normal person. I'll do all this weird shit and say all this stuff that's so outdated and doesn't make any sense. And that'll be the bit. So I'm going to run through these real quick, Eric. That's just one of them for everything. I'm going to run through these real real quick. Starting with Johnny Carson.

Listen to how bad this epic man impression is. Johnny Carson, narration to how bad this Ed McMahon impression is. Johnny Carson narration. The narrator. But I think perhaps the most likely reason of all. It may have been that his heart was two sizes, two small. Yes, heartless bastard. That's the worst Ed McMahon. Bill Cosby's coming up next.

Bill Cosby. The narrator. But whatever the reason, it's hard to refuse. He stood there on Christmas Eve, hating to the who. So here we have the most prolific rapist in the history of entertainment. Bill Cosby, and that was the entire thing

he did for the Bill Cosby impression. You couldn't work a bit in there. Couldn't make it a little bit edgy or something because it has to be wholesome. You know, it does. It's never edgy. But when he does, when he does his edgy stuff, it's like he's looting to a sexual innuendo. He's not even making the sexual innuendo. He loots to the sexual inn you window or the or the the stereotype

and he thinks like, wow, he's like, I'm edgy, I'm cutting corners here and you go, just say the fucking thing. If you're gonna go all out there and and make the the assumption of somebody's sexuality or a stereotypical voice or whatever, just do it and then hopefully it works out where it's funny. He probably knows in his case is like, if I say the wrong thing, I'm fired from my own pay podcast. I'll give you an example of this. He does a Bill Clinton impression. This is as edgy as it gets right here.

William Jefferson Clinton, the third, the Grinch. I must find some way to stop Christmas from coming coming that's funny Jesus the lowest hanging fruit possible right and Clinton in person look if you're trying to attract younger people Clinton was the 90s which is 20 something years ago They're not even gonna know who Clinton is so doing that impersonation one it was very piss poor and two They're not even gonna know who Clinton is. So doing that impersonation, one, it was very piss-poor. And two, doesn't make any sense to put this in this thing. Here's like, oh, I'll just add any voice I know

or I think I can relatively do and put this in there. And it'll be a nice variety, a hodgepodge, if you will. He has got tried to attract younger listeners, not trying to attract any listeners. This is Amanda doing a Britney Spears impression This just sounds like if high schoolers made a podcast. This is how it would sound I'm gonna hear fucking Todd giggling in the background Of course you got to do the over-the- L. Pacino impression because this is not overdone

Al Pacino every who down in who I've held beneath was busy now hanging in a hard a tree So who are being the joke there and then that Pristinations are impersonations of people who did the impersonations of those person. Yes are impersonations of people who did the impersonations of those persons. Yes! I was gonna point that out. He does George W. Bush, but it's actually Will Ferrell's George W. Bush.

George Bush. George, so senior, and it's Dana Carvey's George Bush, but it's like, oh, they know how to do the exaggeration for impersonating them. I'll just do exactly what they did. Right. And that's what he's doing. He's doing the over the top, but she know that everybody else does. Yep. And thinking that it's a unique

voice. If it's a unique voice, you do the low key alpachino, like when he was just still Michael in from the first Godfather. So here's an example of doing an impression of an impression was George W. Bush, George Bush, the narrator here, all them who's down here eat their who's poost roast boost All right, so that's well Farrell and then there's Arnold Schwarzenegger, which is the hackiest one to do Arnold Schwarzenegger the narrator all the who boys and girls deal with wake up right in the early They drash with their toys and the noise noise noise noise noise noise and the noise noise noise noise noise noise. Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh Arnold impersonation while still doing the same German character Let's do it, let's hear it So you got, you know, Svuk and then we should make it

German, okay, I got it Wait a second, for side gets the accent Yeah So, so, so, German, speak American, it comes slowly back So they say what we do is vunk. Shall we make a whopper? A spoiler alert? Ha ha ha ha!

Yeah, we make the spoiler. I will wreck everyone's holiday. Ha ha ha ha! That should take that! That's good! That's good! Ha ha ha! Then you come in with everything about you.

Ha ha ha! If you don't care how you feel about anything. Because we want to make a viral video. Welcome to Beg-a-t. Welcome to Beg-a-t. King Mia, take your spoiler. I'm gonna take it all. Holy shit, that's so unfoddy.

In a little of it, he's doing the gay German impersonation, then drops low to do Arnold, and then comes right back into the gay German impersonation again. He couldn't figure out how to handle it and which version of it to go. So he did both as the same person. But fortunately his co-host loved every man of it. So it's fine. Yeah.

It obviously all worked because they could not stop laughing at how funny that was. It's, I don't understand. Like I get the nervousness and it takes a lot to do radio and to talk and put yourself out there and hopefully something connects with the audience and you're entertaining. But it's even more pressure when you have to fake laugh or have your attention in that room to kind of make sure Todd knows that he's hysterical and make sure that this bit is good.

Everyone is on edge to laugh and to applaud and to and to howl and scream at a moment. Notice they're not really getting into the moment of having a conversation where you can be passionate about what you're talking about. Everyone's just waiting for the gaps. They're like, Oh, laugh here. Jump there. Y'all there. So that it seemed, Oh my God, I'd be so exhausted just in the first 20 minutes.

It has to be so stressful to do a show like that. This is Amanda doing Sophia Vagara, and I would call this racially insensitive. I am Sophia Vagara, I'm read for the narrator, that he's slid down the chimney, rather tight pinch, if Santa could do it and so could the Grinch. Alright, yeah. J. Wano, hitting all the notes of J. went all. J. went all.

Beaning for the narration. Hey, Tucker, who's funny. And then the he-and-the-he-me-day. Cook the world with me. And then the last one I'll play. Another missed opportunity. Does Gilbert Godfried, who Gilbert is known for saying the most offensive things possible.

So if you wanted to ad-lib something here, you come up with something shocking and funny, but nope, just does it straight. Don't forget me, Cindy Lohoe, the smallest hope, Sandy Claus. Why? Why are you taking our Christmas tree? Why? Nick! Ugh, alright. I've done it.

At least out of all of the impersonations, that's the least annoying. I'm done. I'm done. I'm done. I'm done. I'm done. I'm done. I'm done. I'm done. I'm done. I'm done.

I'm done. I'm done. I'm done. I'm done. I'm done. I'm done. I'm done. I'm done.

I'm done. I'm done. I'm done. I'm done. I'm done. I'm done. I'm done. I'm done. I'm done. I'm done. I'm done. I'm done. I'm done. I'm done. I'm done. I'm done. I'm done. I'm done. I'm done. I'm done. I'm done. I'm done. I'm done. I'm done. I'm done. I'm done. I'm done. I'm done. I'm done. I'm done. I'm done. I'm done. I'm done. I'm done. I'm done. I'm done. I'm done. I'm done. I'm done. I'm done. I'm done. I'm done. I'm done. I'm done. I'm done. I'm done. I'm done. I'm done. I'm done. I'm done. I'm done. I'm done. I'm done. I'm done. I'm done. I'm done. But Gilbert's not a hard guy to do an impression of either because Gilbert's doing an impression. All his good friends of all the good friends of Gilbert when you hear all these comics on other podcasts when they tell Gilbert stories and they do the voice. The voice usually isn't that good but it's the the way that they're projecting it, the cadence of how he's telling the joke or

the story, whatever. And that's that lifts the impersonation. He's going more for the dead-on voice pattern of it, but without the content. He's literally a hack. Everything he does from a comedy standpoint is hacky. It's weird being the one guy in radio where when you make fun of radio people and say, all some shows have the woman who does this, or they do phone scams, or this show over here

does War of the Roses, and this guy likes to sing. And it's weird being the one guy that everyone points to and said, everything that's wrong with doing this is this guy. Right. How do you absorb every bad trait of a radio show and be that person all in one? It's almost impressive.

Should almost be applauding it. It is. Speaking of being the worst at everything, we have to talk about this Suttering John episode where he had Jason Allison. There's a YouTube video for it. It must watch Suttering John. This boob cannot do a show. he has no one helping him now. So he's trying to do an interview over Skype with Jason Alice. He fumbles through the whole thing.

Jason's embarrassed that he's even on the show. He's rolling his eyes out of his head. He can't believe how much of a fucking dope this guy is. And I just want to start off by the way John introduces Jason Elsie, has no idea who he is. He read his Wikipedia page that's all he knows about him. So he starts off by, he reads the Wikipedia page, and you know, John fancies himself a Renaissance man. He does it all, and he's reading all these things that Jason Elsie's done with professional skateboarder, radio show, and I'm a fighter. All of these different things author. And of

course, John goes, Oh, that's just like me. I'm all those things too. So the way to be a terrible interviewer is to make it about you. And of course, that's what John does throughout this entire podcast, starting with the very beginning. Jason Ellis, he has his own serious XM show. But what I noticed about you, you're a much more famous version of me. Oh, wow, because I'm a loser from the Howard Stun Show. What? Because I'm a loser on the Howard Stun Show.

Well, you are on his same network. No, but it's because you like have done a lot of different things. Like I had a record deal. I fought a boxing match, which I won. All right, we know. We know. So Jason Alice, right up the bat has no respect for Stuttering Jabba on this. Jason Ellis doesn't have a lot of respect for anybody. Yeah, that's probably true. It's a good way. It was the way he learned how to do radio. And he talks about it all the time.

This isn't anything out of school. Was that he would hear Howard when he came to America and he thought the way to do radio is that you have to hate everybody else in this business. So he developed that kind of mindset where no matter who it was he was talking to, he was just like, I have to entertain these people because he's got to promote his wear, sell his goods,

or whatever. But John, and I like John, John has always been very cool to me. John does have that where a lot of hosts do try to, it's almost like a competition. It's like, oh, you got all this going on. Let me tell you about everything that I'm doing the guest doesn't care it's not about at that point the show's not about you it's about the guest and you making the guests sound good and entertaining and and the conversation people want to listen to but when you're constantly peddling

it's like oh I had a book I had a album I had a record deal I had all these things he's just in there's like yeah and and if you look in the video, he just starts rolling a joint. Yes. Like, the board, he's just picking up stuff, he's grinding, he's rolling, and he starts lighting up, he's looking all around the room. You know, he doesn't want to be doing this. Well, he mentions, and you pulled a few clips on here, but he asked John if he likes podcasting because Jason Ellis has a very big radio show on Series XM. So this is a few stuff below him getting I don't know 1200 views on a YouTube page is not reaching a very large audience for him and he makes that very clear early on when he asked him this. So anyway, why are you in the shit? What?

You like doing this? Doing in podcasts. Yeah, of course. Do you? Not really. Why don't you like it? Because I got a radio show. And then I do a podcast because everybody's doing a podcast.

It's kind of annoying. That is the correct answer. If you're a radio guy and can do radio well if you're a talk personality, doing a podcast, if it needs to fill some other void that you have going on then fine. If it's the only way to do what you want to do, okay fine too. But if you're doing a radio show and then they want you to do a podcast, there's no need to do the podcast because you're speaking for a living doing this show. Take the show and repurpose it for the podcast.

You shouldn't want to like doing podcasts if you're still on the radio. I don't think that John even realized that Jason Ellis has a big show. I don't know what he thought it was, but he goes back into the whole thing about how much money he made on Howard Stern. He's talked about this many times.

He made $80,000 a year on Howard Stern. Jay went on hired him for the tonight's show. His salary was on $500,000 a year. You had to take the job. So he's telling this to Jason Allis, and Jason's sympathizing with me, because yeah, I know most of the people who work at serious exam don't make a lot of money except for what unless you're a big name

and of course John being the boob that he is goes well do you make a lot of money and then he's surprised by the answer I mean I've never worked for Howard but I work at serious and if you're not like King's shit you're not getting paid anything and as far as I can tell Everybody's a certain shows miserable except how actually he seems kind of miserable, too. Oh, no, he's miserable Do you get paid a lot from a serious? Yeah, oh good for you. Yeah, I wish I could get a Show on there, but they won't have me how would never let that happen? That's amazing

He was not ready for that answer. Do you make one of them seriously? Yeah, it's the Jason Ellis show. Of course I make a lot of them serious. And so the guy goes, oh, shit, all right. He had the faction music channel with built around Jason Ellis and Tony Hawk. Right.

Then they moved him over to what was the opian Anthony channel, then became faction talk, took the elements of Jason's show and redid the channel around Jason again. So Jason's kind of a big deal with the company, whether you like his show or not or you like him or not, it doesn't matter. He's kind of a big deal with the company, the heads of the company love him. Yeah, he's going to be making a lot of money. He's a marquee person for the company. And Stuttering John is so delusional that he thinks the reason why he doesn't have a job as serious ex-sam, and why he's not doing the Jason Ellishel, the Stuttering John show, is because Howard's blocking it.

That's not the reason. Howard's in no meetings, talking to any executives that's serious I have about whether or not that you give Southern John his own radio show. Your podcast is hot garbage, John. And I know you just said that you like John. You probably don't want to shit out of. So I'll let me put you to the top spot here. But you watch this show. It's the worst thing anyone could do.

Well, like John's intentions are like, I don't. This is crazy. I love't, this is crazy. I love him, he's crazy, but he's crazy. He just goes, he's the guy that goes about things the wrong way and you go, well, you know, how, what would be the worst case scenario? It would be this. Okay, I won't do that. I'll try to do something different. And he just gravitates to the worst case scenario.

Howard was out in Los Angeles, not, I think, either at the, during the summer Howard was out in Los Angeles, not I think either at the during the summer or the beginning of the fall, they opened up the new serious XM Hollywood facility and Howard was going to go out there and do a week of shows. John went outside the studio, outside the building, the back entrance to the building and was trying to get any of the Stern show personalities, staff, even trying to get Howard, to do the bit that John used to do for the Stern Show, where he would interview people in the red carpet

and ask them horrific things. Eric, he was badgering Shuley. To the point where Shuley had to tell the security guy to get him out of here. He's like, can you please have this person removed? John, what are you doing? It's not the right way to go about some of here. He's like, can you please have this person removed? John, what are you doing? It's not the right way to go about the person. You're embarrassing yourself.

Not at all. So, John is so delusional that he's not sure why he hasn't been asked to be on the Joe Rogan show. And he wasn't sure if maybe it was a Howard connection thing, but Joe had already on, so that must not be it. Joe Rogan had already on, so that must not be it. Joe Rogan had already on, so I don't think it's anything to do with Howard. I mean, but, uh, you know, Joe Rogan wouldn't have me on, but I mean, who, I don't know why. I mean, I've, well, he's a comedian.

Joe Rogan's a comedian first. What? Yeah. So are my. That's hilarious. Jason, I was just totally disrespective right there. We's hilarious. Jason L. is just totally disrespects it right there. We wanted to say you are, but I'm proud of what it is. There Jason's very low key with that.

Some of that stuff. He just, if you say dumb, most of the time he's not even gonna respond to it. He'll just let it sit there and make you look ridiculous. That was a great moment though. He goes, I don't know why Joe Rogan wouldn't have me on his show. Have you seen the guests that Joe Rogan has on his show?

They're like celebrities. You're a stuttering John. You're a joke. I think if it came into his, you know, like, I don't think it's in his peripheral vision for Joe thinking about getting John on the show. I think if somebody was pushing, if already was on there, and said, you really need to get John on or somebody else said, you need to get John. I think he would have John on if there was a reason to do so.

I don't think it was a Howard. Just imagine thinking the power Howard has to have other places not do business with you and Howard doesn't even work there. Howard can't tell Joe Rogan to not have John on. Joe doesn't even really like Howard that much anymore. So they're not talking. They don't talk at all. Howard, like you said, was just out in LA.

He did the Ellen show. He did, what's it say, Bill Marr, and he went on Jimmy Kimmel. Right. The one thing he should have gone on, which would have reached more people than all three of those things combined, is the Joe Rogan show.

Right. So how are we second-trolling the guest list at all? Exactly. So we can't judge. John needs to focus on himself, not worry about what everyone else has and what everybody else is doing. So okay. I think that's part of the problem here where people take John the wrong way.

It's like, he's more worried about, well, why do they have this? Why am I not on there? Why am I not there? Instead of, this is what I'm doing on my own and somebody noticing and go, Hey, we'd like to have you on to talk about what you're doing. Yes. You've summed this up perfectly, Eric. Thank you for that. This is the problem with John is he's consistently jealous of what everybody else has all the

time because he doesn't need to be. He shouldn't be. Those people deserve it. That's just how this works. Like he thinks he's as talented as anyone else in entertainment and he's wildly incorrect about that. He couldn't be further. So here's an example.

Anytime someone even pays him a compliment, he has to reiterate it as if it's an achievement. And I want to just point this out, if done it before with Stuttering John. People are relatively polite, and they'll say nice things to you to make you feel good. It doesn't mean it's true, or that you've accomplished anything. And I think- Fair, you're not the same for you, because you have all those clips at the beginning of your show. Oh, yeah.

And you just put it up there like it's an achievement. Of course. Why would that? It's my show. So this is him explaining that a headliner that he was doing comedy with told him that he could also be a headliner.

And all I can say to you is when I was working with Carlos, not Carlos, I'm gonna see a Willy Barcena who was like a known headliner and I was working with him at not Carlisman, see a Willie Barcena, who was like a known headliner, and I was working with him at the M. Probb and Vegas. And I was the midler, he was the headliner. And he came up to me, he said, it's rare they have two headliners on the same show.

And I said, well, Willie, I'm not a headliner. He goes, John, you're a headliner. So to me, that was the best compliment I can get. So that's something he has to reiterate. Not on a show where he's being interviewed, a show where he's interviewing a guest. And then this was the best part right here because Jason Ellis calls him out

for being the hack that he is. This is what headline, he just has to joke the headlighter's comp without the cuff. I once had the best blowjob on the fact, chick. I think it's you who's hungry or something, but I'll take. Oh my god, dude.

Ha ha ha ha ha. Yep, you're a headlighter, all right? So, Jason was just like, dude, that's the easiest joke. No one's laughing at that. Or it's too easy a joke. It's just too easy. And then what is Southern John? Do he doubles down with this next joke? It's true story though. Jason was missing. I brought it back to my house.

She blew me again. And she's like, John, now what are you going to do for me? So I begged the lasagna. Oh, come on. I'm just doing a couple of jokes. These are like old Jackie jokes. It's when he was delivering them like Jackie too. Yeah. Just cracking up laughing. Because if you just get the punch line and you laugh and clap to let everybody know that's where you laugh and clap. Right.

That's really bad, even by Southern John Sanders. But it's such an old time old school mentality. Yes. I'm doing this stuff because look at where they came from where it was, you know, John and Jackie. And even the early days of when Howard was having comics come on the show before Gilbert and before Florentine, you're getting like Joe Franklin on, you know,

you're getting and Bob Le you who I love but you had these guys that were doing older acts and never progressed past that which I didn't understand it seems to be where John's kind of stuck like he's like oh this worked for me back then I'll still keep doing it instead of changing with the times and updating some things. I don't think he's capable of coming up with funny material now. He's giving him too much credit as if he's just like, he honed in act and he's keeping with it.

He's like, I don't even think he has an act. I don't know, I've never seen John stand up. No one has. I didn't realize he was doing, I knew he dabbled in and he would go and do, when he was invited on people's sets and shows to do some stand up. I didn't know he said he was doing it for 20 years.

I wasn't aware that he was doing standup for 20 years. Let's talk about the technical issues that he has trying to do this show. And this was one of the time stamps that you pointed out. We know I'm trying to fix my screen. Is your screen getting screwed up like that? That I'm fine. Alright, so you see me okay?

Yeah. I don't know what the hell I did, but I did something wrong. I don't know what I did. Hold on a second. Just playing competency. Hold on. I have to hit something that changed the whole thing. Hold on a second. Spear with me. Hold on a second. I'm not this incompetent. I got there. something that changed the laughing bear with me all in his eyes not this incompetent

i hope this is still recording so now so now okay so now we're going to get all these things on my screen to drive me fucking up that i can't turn them off but on a wide but you know it's driving me fucking crazy it's so awesome to watch

dad on the internet right now. Exactly. I am, I'm Dad on the fucking internet. And I don't know how to turn this, I don't know how to move this fucking thing off. My sleep. The fucking, it's driving me crazy this fucking thing. Oh, it's fine.

All right, dude, I'm sorry. Okay, let me try one other thing here. is okay. Let me try one of the thing here Like I said, this is one of the worst things I've ever seen this should not be a Podcast or a YouTube video right well the old the old cliche of if you can't think of something funny And you're gonna be more emotional about is to start dropping the f-bomb look at the fuck good this a fuck good dad Fuck it like it's not funny. It's you're trying to kill time while he's fixing this. But then also, you need to edit this out. That's the point I wanted to make.

What's a live stream is one thing, it happens. But when you go to present this out, so you do some kind of jump cuts, so you do some kind of like graphic transitions for his thing, or even for the audio, you can cut it and make it sound like nothing ever happened But they leave it in there and it's not even interesting So this went on I think I had time code if it's like that was a short a very I think it was like two minutes fully of him Trying to move the monitor around and stuff and a little later

He turns his microphone off and goes right to the webcam Mike because he says I'm gonna go raw without the mic I know the podcast people are gonna hate it, but who cares, we're gonna go raw. It's like, they're the people listening to you and you're just telling them, we don't care if they don't like what they're hearing, not from content-wise, but I mean, obviously, but also from the technical standpoint,

it's like, I don't care if they get to hear it or not. This is between me and you. It's like, why are you even bothering with it? I have that clip too, real quick. I have fucked this microphone, real quick. I-I-I-I-I fuck this microphone, alright? Hold on. Fuckin'-sorry man, so you know, so basically we're just doing our computer mic, so I'm gonna get a load of shit for more of my fucking podcast and people.

Yeah, right now. You know, but that's gonna have to fuck it, I don't care anymore. He doesn't care anymore. John, what have you ever cared? You've never put out a professional show. This is another example of him explaining how unprofessional the show is. Yeah, because I'm not going to be doing another podcast, at least not before Christmas. And maybe not for the, you know, for the rest of the year, it's like getting my shit together.

Because I mean, you know, this is the most unprofessional as far as recording. I've ever done in my life, but I have to get an engineer and I got to get to honor. What's that? It's an honor to be on your broadcast. Yes, yeah, but don't worry. Listen, I have the next one. I'll have three computers. I'm going to have the whole thing all set up, but just now. So. All right, well, it's good to know that Eric thing all set up, it's just now. So.

All right, well, it's good to know that Eric, well, right now it's very unprofessional. Soon he'll have three computers. Right, so that'll take care of it. Once you have a problem, add more things to complicate the process. And then start screaming about why none of this is working. You're a professional radio producer.

How many computers do you need to create a podcast? Usually one what the answer is one Like an idiot. So is this what he's doing like didn't he have a whole like he had a producer and a whole team of people where he was doing an Audio podcast now he's doing it through Skype on YouTube. Yeah, so Royce was his co-host, and then he had another guy who was helping produce it. And Royce left to go run for some, I think it was a California legislator. I don't know. He didn't even qualify to run.

So Royce is no longer running for government. Instead, he's just doing a different thing. He was looking for any excuse to stop podcasting with John. That's what it was. Basically, because I can't, because I'm running for office. Oh, well, that fell through. I know, but I'm also doing this other thing now too.

So, all right, so he has nobody to do the podcast with. So he's recording it on his own. Oh, yeah. And that's, well, now, okay, that's what he's doing. All right. Oh, it's gotten bad. It's, it's OP level bad. Here's how he wraps things up with Jason.

And Jason's really excited to have spent the last hour and 20 minutes with his non-sides. It's been a pleasure. And, you know, you know, I'm stumbling here, but wow, fuck it. Look look thanks for having me on your really unprofessional shitty podcast. Yeah, it thanks a lot for wasting my fucking time asshole. Yeah, the whole thing was, he was trying, you could see that he was trying, but none of

this was working out and, you know, props adjacent for sitting through all of that. I'm amazed that he did. I was surprised. I wouldn't have. I would have. I would have called it. And just one more thing I wanted to play on here is he does an ad read and good on John for having sponsors, but there's no way they're going to pay for this ad read because he didn't even have the copy in front of him and was completely ill prepared to do this. Yeah, bet online.ag. And if you if you punch in the code, Jason, CLNS 50, you get a bonus. You get cash.

I think it's $50. I can be right. I don't have the copy in front of me, but you will get a bonus. So the way that this works in podcasting is every time you do a live read, you have to then send a clip of that, or at least a timestamp to the advertisers so that they can check and do a little quality control.

And the promo code usually involves you or your show. Yes. So that the audience or the customers coming in are from your particular program. They say, Oh, look, they have a lot of people coming in from this show. We need to advertise more on this show. Right. So there's two problems with this. One is the promo code is CLNS50. What the fuck is that? I tried to find it. I was like, what show is this attached to? It's not the standard job podcast. But then the other thing is this attached to is not the Suddenery John podcast

But then the other thing is he didn't even know what the offer was Yeah, if you put in this code you get something. I don't know what maybe 50 bucks like that's unacceptable As her an advertiser standpoint, they are not gonna accept that and pay for that ad read Yeah, there's nothing advertisers love more that you know, it's it was difficult to get them to advertise on radio But it's even more impossible to get anybody of substance to advertise on podcasts unless you're you know a superstar in the podcast world But they love nothing more than when you get their ad read wrong or don't know anything about their product or it's like I don't have the copy in front of me. I think this is the code Then they're not gonna be back

the next week, they just put all their money on you and you didn't even take it seriously. Definitely, definitely not. I mean, not to mention the fact that even if he had read it correctly and given a promo code that was based on his show, no one's going to that anyway, no one listens to Suthering John's podcast. Does it not do well?

No, okay. Have you listened to this product? I listened to this episode. anyway no one listens to Suthering John's podcast does it not do well no okay have you listened to this product it's I listen to this episode I have not heard his podcast I heard clips from you time to time but I have not heard his podcast I can't stress this enough there are 700,000 podcasts it's not easy to get people to listen to your shows a lot of options out there oh not at all stuttering john and he should have some cloud that brings people in because of the tonight

So apologies for that. Thank you for your time. When I got to meet you when I was up at the Anthony show last time, I felt bad because I really wanted to talk

with you for a minute. And I had to run over to the Chip Chipperson show. So I was kind of like, hey, Eric, I got there early and you weren't there. So then I saw you after the show I'm okay Eric. I gotta go. Sorry. So Carl gave me the celebrity blow off. I did. I'm so bad. I ran out to do something and then came back when Anthony show it started and you were already in there and then you were coming out and you were heading over to Chip show like you said So the show ends I go into the studio. I know I wrapping things up, and I go over and say hi to you,

and I'm talking to you, I'm like, hey man, how's it going? He's like, oh good, I gotta go to the jujiships. You're like, you're walking and talking with me as you're grabbing your stuff to walk out the door. Okay, I'll see you later by door shots. I'm so sorry, I felt so bad about that. Call giving me the celebrity snub. It's like, oh yeah, talk to my pay,

we'll hook it up whenever the bike boom door shots. Yeah, I was like, how's it got we rock? We were in that day. Yeah, I was like, yeah, I really oh yeah talk to my pay. We'll hook it up or never to buy poop door shots. Yeah, yeah, I was like I was like I was important in that day. Yeah, I was like yeah, I really want to talk to you But my friend Anthony Kumian. I have to go get a train. So All right, well, I want to talk about the fact that Eric Nagel host his show called it's Eric Nagel on iHeart radio Yes, which every week you come on top pop culture, and where could people find that? The I Heart Radio app, you can just search where under the Elvis Durand category for its our kniggle, or Apple and Google Podcasts, Spotify's another big platform for us if you want to get us there.

And then you can find us everywhere else. I just recently found out our show got picked up on Pandora, which is now owned by Sirius XM. Interesting. I had no idea why. I got a notice that we were being carried. And I was like, did we submit to this? I didn't remember doing that.

And they just picked up the show and started carrying it on their platform, which I found to be hilarious. So apparently we're on Pandora too if you have that. I didn't know the Pandora did podcasts. That's interesting. I just started it, I think, around the summertime, they just started carrying podcasts on there. Also, you can catch Eric on, would you kindly on compound media? Yeah, that's the other show that I do with Brian Johnson from the world of Kevin Smith, AMC's comic bookman and he hosts a podcast called Tell Him Steve Dave. Brian and I do a show once a week over at compoundmedia.com.

The very funny Brian Johnson, I will tell you that Andy, who is a regular co-host on our show, is a huge fan of Tell Him Steve Dave. So that's... Yeah, maybe get Brian on at some point. Yeah, that would be fantastic. We'd love to have none. You're great thing. You'll have a great time with him.

All right, Eric, before you go, we have to play everyone's favorite part of the show. And that is... The teaser. The teaser. The teaser. The teaser. The teaser.

The teaser. The teaser. The teaser. This is the part of the show where we tease the podcast that we'll be reviewing on next week's W-A-T-P. And I'm excited to say that we were experimenting a little bit earlier this week like I mentioned we did a bonus show it was a crossover show with the Dick show we're gonna do more of those we're gonna try another experiment on our regular show next week we We're gonna do Doug versus Doug.

This is where Doug from whose right will be reviewing Doug from Good Times Great Movies podcast and vice versa. So we're gonna get reviews of the each other's Doug's shows. Which is a thing. It'll be fun because it's like Doug. If there's like the nice Doug and then there's like the angry Doug and you know the nice dog does a show where he just talks about how much he loves moves from the 80s and then the angry Doug Just you know yells the F word a lot

So I think it would be fun to bring those two people together and see what happens I think that'd be very fun I think it would have been even funnier if that we were wrapping up and then the teaser was that you are going after my show The next week which I'm sure is coming. Oh my gosh, I have been told that I need to do your show by a lot of people. A lot of your fans that reach out to me time to time that seems to have a heart on for for like he was a fan of what's his name Don and Mike I think his name is. He was like, it's like, you know, I carl to go after your show big bad and i was like

now thanks you know i get it i get with the whole by business in the universes around everything you do well listen all we did was steal the jock tober bet which of my favorite bet from the opium after the show and it turns out there's a lot of uh... material out there for us to go after so you're far you're far down the list, my friend. You don't have to worry about that. No worries.

We have a lot to talk about. So hearing the Doug versus Doug, and I do gotta give you some props. I can never remember this guy's name, but every now and then you talk about some guy that has like 19 podcasts. Yeah, Patrick Michael, also known as Shamest McKinley and yes. Very soft-spoken guy.

Yeah. I don't know what it is about him, but it's fascinating to listen to the mindset of how unaware he is of himself and what he's doing. I was listening, so we didn't have time this week. We obviously had a jam-pack show, but I was listening to, we just did a podcast with a buddy of his who just went to a primus concert. I'm a huge primus fan so the two of them are talking about this primus concert and

it's the worst podcast. I know I say this a lot. It's the worst podcast I've ever heard. So I can't wait to get people caught up on when Shamus has a co-host because there is no chemistry. It's baffling. Well, I look forward to hearing that. I appreciate that, Eric. And E-Rock, I've really enjoyed this conversation. I want to have you back on the show again someday. So hopefully we can coordinate that and get you back. No problem. And I also enjoyed the, uh, the Florentine episode was very good. Oh, me too. I, I, I got made fun of my people. Guys like fanboying out for the first 20, 25 minutes of that.

Fuck them. It's your show. That's right. Oh, you're taking all the first 20, 25 minutes of that. Fuck them, it's your show. That's right. Oh, you're taking all the heat from making fun of everybody else. If you want to have somebody on that you like, then you know that you're progative too. But yeah, Florentine was great. And I'm sure you can get a coat, like you can get leavey on. Leavey would be good to dissect some of John's stuff.

What I want to get is body McFarlane. She doesn't do anything anymore. No. No, she doesn't do any shows. Why is that? I don't even make farlin'. She doesn't do anything anymore. No? No, she doesn't do any shows. Why is that? I don't know. She just, she does her own thing now. Like, we've tried to have her back on compound

and I know a couple other podcasts we're trying to get out there and she just doesn't feel the need to do it anymore and that's fine. Nobody has a problem with Bonnie. She just doesn't like doing it as much as Rich does. So I should give up on this is what you're saying. And probably, I mean, keep trying.

Who knows, but I think it's kind of a dead end All right, well you rock. I'm gonna let you go because I've kept you too long We're gonna do a voicemail segment after the break here I'm gonna pull somebody up from the discord You do that with me maybe maybe Vic if she can get on microphone or someone so Eric thanks again for coming on and also you're the producer of the Anthony Kumio show on compound media. So go to compound media, subscribe, go to its Eric Nagle on iHeartRadio. Thanks again buddy, you were great.

No problem, next call. Alright, so please join us again next week because it might be unless we find out what's it for all. Who are these podcasts? Sleep well, everypony. Starting in the must-vis of Morning Radio. Hey, now to show these clothes right now. Hmm. OK. Great show. Good job, everybody. Great job, everyone. ʻ‿ʻ ʻ‿ʻ ʻ‿ʻ ʻ‿ʻ ʻ‿ʻ ʻ‿ʻ ʻ‿ʻ ʻ‿ʻ ʻ‿ʻ ʻ‿ʻ ʻ‿ʻ ʻ‿ʻ ʻ‿ʻ ʻ‿ʻ ʻ‿ʻ ʻ‿ʻ ʻ‿ʻ ʻ‿ʻ ʻ‿ʻ ʻ‿ʻ ʻ‿ʻ ʻ‿ʻ ʻ‿ʻ ʻ‿ʻ ʻ‿ʻ ʻ‿ʻ ʻ‿ʻ ʻ‿ʻ ʻ‿ʻ ʻ‿ʻ ʻ‿ʻ ʻ‿ʻ ʻ‿ʻ ʻ‿ʻ ʻ‿ʻ ʻ‿ʻ ʻ‿ʻ ʻ‿ʻ ʻ‿ʻ ʻ‿ʻ ʻ‿ʻ ʻ‿ʻ ʻ‿ʻ ʻ‿ʻ ʻ‿ʻ ʻ‿ʻ ʻ‿ʻ‿ʻ ʻ‿ʻ ʻ‿ʻ ʻ‿ʻ ʻ‿ʻ ʻ‿ʻ ʻ‿ʻ ʻ‿ʻ ʻ‿ʻ ʻ‿ʻ ʻ‿ʻ ʻ‿ʻ ʻ‿ʻ ʻ‿ʻ ʻ‿ʻ ʻ‿ʻ ʻ‿� I don't know.

I don't get it. Makes no sense. Um, alright, Vic, yeah, come on. I unmuted you there you go Hey Carl how you doing? I'm doing awesome. Look at this. We're finally we're finally having a conversation Absolutely, that's not just a voicemail Goodness this is awesome. I mean you've become the most important part of our voicemail segment. So it's only fitting That you would be on here It's all about me Carl. I'm sorry the voicemails.

I've noticed that. I've noticed you're a little bit of a tension whore or so I hear. Absolutely. My dad left me so that's why. Oh that makes sense. Yeah. All right well let's start it off by playing your most recent voice, Mal's Vic, and then hopefully we'll have other things to talk about. I'll see. Alright, cool, here we go. Hey, Carl's a big cool boy.

I just got to say I hit a big time, someone impersonated me. I hit a big time, Bucco. Anyway, let's talk about how many people hate me and why they uh... view view fucking think that i wake up in the morning and i'm like you know what would benefit my life oh fucking sounding like a little boy i have to call people in

to interview you using this fucking voice like hey uh... i i'd likeing would love to interview you please just I promise it's not like bring your son to work day I pinky promise I I fucking just do it just come in. Oh my god. Oh my god Anyway, that was a good show But I don't think that I'm allowed to call in anymore,

since I am a little Jew boy, a little juicer, a little juicy. Yeah, so who knows? Might get gasped in the next time I call in or whatever. It's like you. Is it weird listening to yourself as you're on the channel? Oh, I cringe every time. People think that you're putting that voice on, like that's not your real voice. No, it's absolutely my voice. I hate it.

Yeah. Vic calls back again. Hey, Vic again. This is the first time I've ever called. Excuse me. But, but do you think people would like me if I used a fran voice? Oh, I should point out. The other star of the voice, I thought it was, of course, Fran D'Racher.

So this is a two-for-one right here. You got Vic and Fran D'Racher. Hey, Carl! No, no, no. Hey, Carl! It's Fran! You know, I used to be on the nitty-sale in, you know, that producer died and my co-host all died and... Oh, Carl!

You know, I just had a rough life, I got raped in the valley. We were the movie theaters, it was kind of like Bruce Wayne but I just got raised instead of murdered Anyway call Tell me back Spawn on Fran Drescher. Thank you. I don't like that. I was very impressed by that Did you know that you called back at a third time back? Oh? What the fuck I did not! No, I think you did, let's get rid of this one.

Hey Carl, it's Vex. I just wanted to call and see that I'm a big sex watch. And I love taking big black talks. So, over here, Vex turned over. Oh, I'm sorry, I gotta go take this big black cock. Goodbye. That was a little bit of a different angle for you. You're not normally getting banged when you call into the show. No, I guess, you know, I was in a trance. You're feeling it.

Absolutely. It's changing up from time to time. That big black cock, Carl. You know it. I do know it. There's a guy named Adam from Massachusetts and he has a message for me. Hi Carl, it's Adam from Massachusetts. I just wanted to say fuck you. Fuck the bills. Yeah, yeah, that's iconic Christmas and coming back. I fucked the Patriots. Fuck Tom Brady.

Patrick Michael was talking shit about me on YouTube. I think we were talking about this before the show began to anyone who was in the Discord. And it's kind of interesting. Louis J. Gomez mentioned raping my wife again. And Patrick was on YouTube in the comments section. Hey, Fucker. I've wanted to call for a while. I called the yellow at you both a fucking gym maintenance podcast, but anyway, I wanted to call on you, but I got something else to report. I was just watching Lewis's podcast, Real-S podcast. I've never

watched before. I only watched it because my favorite podcast for Vengeance of the Fifth was on. They're like a lighter version, lighter version of TDS, but way funnier and not as gay. Anyway, I'm watching it. And they mentioned your podcast. Actually, Lewis talked about how he tried to, you know, the whole raping-your-girl-fronting and blah, blah, blah. And he says that he actually did it. Anyway, he's making a joke, fun and fun.

So afterwards, I scroll down what's the first comment I see from nine minute podcasts. There's the first comment. What's he saying? Oh, Louis, you hit them. Who are these, who are these podcasts situation perfectly? That's what he says. Weird comment? I'll screenshot it in saying to you if you want.

But I guess he's just a friend of Louisis and just happened to hear you and had to comment on it or somehow he just knew. But I think you're in all chains of head. Anyway, we'll follow that one a let you go. See you later. How do you feel about Patrick Michael, Vec? You know, Carl, you gotta be careful. He doesn't have a job. He can just stock the fuck

out of you for like a long time. I know. And this whole thing with now he's finding small mentions of me within a YouTube video and commenting makes me a little bit dirty. He's got a lot of time on his hands. Oh, he's digging Carl. He's digging. Uh, alright. He'll find your address next week, just you wait. Isn't that kind of how this should go down though? Isn't that the right way for the story to end? I'd love for you to be murdered by him. Honestly. He can talk about it on his true crime

podcast call. And they still haven't found the killer. Absolutely. That's funny. The pizza man. It's the pizza man, Carl. Why do they order pizza? What were they thinking?

Oh, all right. What else we got here? Oh, this guy does an imitation of our intro bit, which Erick took a shot at me for today, which was fun. Have you ever heard of that show W-A-T-P's from my that guy, Carl? Oh, yeah, I've heard of that show before. Oh, yeah, it's great. It's the funniest thing ever.

I blow my load every time just thinking about that show. Oh, yeah. I've got to check that out sometimes. Yeah, yeah, it's hilarious. The show is just hilarious. It's the funniest thing ever. I almost made that the intro to the show today. But I thought out of context it wouldn't be as funny maybe next week. No, next week do it Carl. I'm gonna cry if you don't.

You seem to be very sensitive girl. No, you're always like crying if things don't work out the way you want them to. Absolutely. That's what attention horrors. That's my number one move. That's a good point. It is your MO. If you don't get your way, you have to make a big stink of us, so people recognize you. Right, absolutely. It's got to be weird to be the most polarizing person on this show, right, Vick? I try not to think about it. I just do it. And then I just immediately shove everything out of my brain.

It just melts out of my ears. So I can't remember any. So you don't take the good with the bad. You just shut it off because there's a lot of admirers of you. Oh, yeah. No, I've definitely noticed. It is, it is what it is. We'll get some death threats. Oh yeah, no, I've definitely noticed. It is what it is.

I'll get some death threats. I'm waiting for that. You did give out your phone number to our patron. So I imagine you've had some fun texts and phone calls with people. You know what? I've only gotten one phone call, so that's a little depressing. And I haven't gotten any dick picks. I've gotten asked for feet pictures like twice. Yeah, you're fucking lose news or artistic.

Okay. Yeah, no, for the most part, they're just like, Hey, you're retarded. I'm like, you're right. Yeah, there's a rumor going around that you're 300 pounds. So that why they wanted to see your feet. They're like, well, at least that's not fat. Yeah, well, I don't know. I've seen some fat broads feet and they sweat. That's true, it's not fun. Till I can. So do you send these people pictures of your feet back?

Oh, God no, are you kidding? I don't know what you're up to. I don't know what you're up to. I can't shame the foot fetishes. Oh, okay. Well, even though people were excited to get your number who are loyal subscribers, and we do appreciate that supporting the show here, W-A-T-P, there's this one creepy person

who's interested in another person's phone number. Hey, Carl, so here's the, we see you got this girl, and you put her behind a pay wall, right? So you technically pay it for access to this fine woman's body through you. So I guess you'd call that a PMP, you know? And if you do have more girls on that little list of yours, and if we could pay certain amounts for, you know, getting certain phone numbers, and how about you give us something silly, something a bit more tasty just really that old boy and you've always got a great how much money we're taking to be his number because all the things we do with his dick pics

come on girl how much we're talking come be back Girl, how much we talking? Call me back. So I don't know if that was to say for a blow or not. But this first. What? I could hear it. Did you call him back?

I have not called him back yet. I have to ask Andy's permission if I'm allowed to give out his number. Because you are very generous giving out your number. I don't know if Andy will be. So I'll ask him and see what he thinks. Yeah, we'll see. I think Andy will do it. I believe. Maybe it's better to ask for forgiveness than permission. Yeah, do it right now. Just spout it out Carl, I believe in you.

Yeah, I'll pop it. I want to put it behind a paywall obviously. You know, we got to get more people subscribing to the show back Very important All right now I'll give out Andy and his brother Joe's numbers. I'm the next bonus episode. So make sure you subscribe to that Casey our other female collar calls in she wants to tell PJ something. Hey Carl, it's K-Zim. I'm pretty offended. Y'all forgot about me. Talking about how VIXI will only be male with center. I'm calling to defend myself against PJ. I'm pretty much against PJ. I'm about 110 pounds. I could prove it to you if you sent me a pair of those wonderful W-H-E-P leggings.

Send some pictures. Call me back. I might have to take you out by this case. I know the W-H-E-P leggings are a big hit with the ladies out there. Yeah, personally, I've bought 20 pairs just so I can cycle through. Speaking of PJ, who's a super fan, PJ Filium, who's contributed so much to this show, people are asking for his songs, I think I'm going to put them on SoundCloud or maybe Patreon. I don't know, somewhere where people can get them, but there's one person who doesn't think that PJ can sing very well.

Hey Carl, this is a message for your song contributor PJ. I gotta say, his lyrics are smart. They rhyme well. But that guy has to hire someone to sing for him. It's fucking awful. I can't listen to it. It makes my ears bleed. So PJ, please write your awesome lyrics and have somebody else sing it.

It's fucking ridiculous. Anyway, thanks Carl Pass this message along. Call me back. Bye I don't know about that. PJ is the voice of a generation. He's redefining what it is to be the singer in a band Honestly, he should be making more money than Mariah Carey does during the holidays. I agree He should be making more money than Mariah Carey does during the holidays. I agree. The voice of an angel, I love him. Mariah Carey makes a lot of fucking money every Christmas. Oh, she's like top 5 right now, Carl.

It's so ridiculous. She does not deserve that. She's fat now. Her song went to number 1 this year for the very first time ever. It wasn't even number one at first came out, but all I wanted for Christmas is you was number one. No, it hasn't topped ever. This is the first time.

This year was the first time. It came out 96 I want to say. And this year was the first time it was number one. It's not even good, Carl. It's not even good. So I know that that is a common opinion. I've heard a lot of people say that. But I implore you to go back and watch the music video. Go to YouTube. Watch the music video for all I want for Christmas is you.

You forget that Mariah Carey was one of the hottest chicks around for a very small amount of time. but there was a segment of time when that music video was very watchable. Oh, she's very shapely, Carl. Yes, agreed. Vic and I have similar tastes in women. All right, this is a guy who thinks that the Fran Drescher impersonator isn't that impressive. If you remember last week, the Fran Drescher impersonator told us how he is able to pull off this amazing impression by putting pressure on his throat and had a whole thing about it. Apparently not everyone was all that impressed. Hey Carl I'm calling for you right now.

Fucking live it. I just heard this idiot callin' and say, no light did the fan dress your voice. It's so hot. Oh my God, I can't believe it. Put me down to bed. It's just a classic, stupid drunk bitch voice. It's not, it's not how I had to do. Oh, I'm putting myself through so much pain.

Oh, it's like getting ripped. I'm like, real last guy. When by the way, he's lying. I'm the one who called. Fuck off. Call me back, girl, bye. I don't think anyone actually thought it was difficult to do.

Just throw that out there. It's pretty difficult. I tried to do what it's been. You're bad at it. You're very bad at it. I'm awful at it, because I start with a shitty voice, and then it goes shittier so it's you know it doesn't All right, this is a kaya talked about the fact that I

Think it was kaya. Were we talking about it's silly that we called Native Americans Indians because it's just confusing No someone called in to explain to Kayah that we know the difference. They call this a semi-ship beer from Westchester, the best Chester. Let Kayah know that people in America don't think it's East Indian people that founded our country. In fact, when someone says Indian, we make sure to confirm whether it's a dot head or a real. That's really fun if you laugh. That would be a laugh pretty hard when I listen to it the first time. I have the second time.

Loan be hold. All right. What do we got here? Oh. So what had a brilliant advice about how to talk to women. The last show that we had, you repeat everything back to them that they tell you and that will get them interested in you.

So our boy Bradley took this advice and put it to good use. Uh oh. Hey Carl, this is your boy Rezli. Just letting you know that because of the advice of the Russia guy last week on how to pick up women, I have finally lost my virginity. I went out on a date with a beautiful girl this week and I just repeated everything that she said back to me and the next thing you knew she was all over me.

So I finally lost my virginity and because of that I've come around on Vic, she's a lovely young woman, very charismatic. Flipside to that coin. Now that I'm no longer an in-sale, I can no longer in good conscience remain a subscriber to W-A-T. No, no. This will be the last time I'm reporting in. What? You know that I've enjoyed the last time I'm reporting in. What?

You know that I've enjoyed the podcast, and I'll see you guys on the flip side. Thank you. We can't start having all the listeners get laid what? You can't. I'm sorry, that was me. I actually fucked that listener, Carl, and he had lasted like two seconds, so you don't want him listening anyways. I believe that.

Absolutely. I believe that to be true. It's amazing. I didn't even have that in my notes. You do get references about 50% of our phone calls at this point. Oh, yeah. It's embarrassing. I just have one more voicemail to play.

Oh, it's embarrassing. You love it. I can picture the grid on your face right now. Absolutely. Yeah. I can I can picture the grid on your face right now Absolutely Alright, this is my uncle Adolf called back into the show again. I always love when Uncle Addy calls in Hey, I'll sit on the ad of again I just have to say I'm very disappointed in TBS

They say they're my friends and they want to gas the juice. Until they tell their bosses that they are my friends anymore to solve the joke, I know you would never betray me, W-A-T-P. Official podcast of the upright. All right, I don't know about that. I'm going off. That seems pretty crazy to me. He did just remind me though that the Daily Show, aka TDS aka the right stuff.biz.

The show that we reviewed last week that was the anti-Semitic white supremac show did mention us. And I of course have to play a clip of that even though it's not interesting in any way. But two hours and 47 minutes into their fucking got off will bring us podcast. They make a reference to us.

And again, it shows that there's a lot of crossover in the fan base because someone who likes us picked up on this. So here's them talking about our review of their show. The cops extracting questions in like a bad way. She has a podcast. I think it's as good as our podcast. Well, it's as those people that review them.

Why would that sound like they would know? Like God, tell me again, how some, I mean, somehow, honestly, cannot remember with them. Some normies are gonna try to roast our podcast. Oh, wow, please continue to email me about it. I really care. So apparently people are emailing him that we roasted their podcast, but the fact that we're normies means that he doesn't care about that.

Absolutely, Carl. You you you haven't even guessed like two Jews. You're not fuck. You're not cool enough to review his podcast. No, but you forget, though, Vic, is that it's all a joke. They're just being shocking. They're just shock jocks. It's the new age of shock jocks. Yeah, when we talk about black people and Jewish people non-stop every day,

it's a character. It's a character I'm doing, it's a joke. That's what Alex Jones said when he was on trial too. Yeah, it's just a character people like it I don't know to tell you hey Do I get death threats? Yeah, every day all day long, but it's still it's a fun character Totally worth it. All right, Vic. I have been doing this way too long and I had to fucking edit this shit tomorrow So take me forever

So I'm already bummed out about that Anything forever. So I'm already bummed out about that. Anything. Yeah, exactly. Anything that you want to tell the fine folks out there who make it this far into an episode of WATP. Just a quick reminder, I am a little boy. I'm not a woman. Oh, now I'm confused. I thought you said that you were a woman who has a little boy voice and that you hate living with that affliction. No, I just tuck my penis right up my butthole and then it's fine. Interesting.
