00:00:21.993 --> 00:00:23.716
oh look, it's that time again.

00:00:23.716 --> 00:00:36.652
Welcome Welcome back to the MT Alternative Podcast, the only show where two guys named Mike and Tom manage to make nostalgia sound like a midlife crisis, set to music.

00:00:36.652 --> 00:00:46.533
This week they're strapping on their platform shoes, firing up the 8-track and time-travelling back to the polyester wonderland of 1977.

00:00:46.533 --> 00:00:57.512
That's right, the year Elvis left the building, star Wars took over the galaxy and apparently, fashion was legally required to offend the eyes.

00:00:57.512 --> 00:01:09.888
Expect riveting conversations on everything from lava lamps to bell bottoms, questionable food choices and cultural moments that may or may not have aged like a dairy product in the sun.

00:01:10.540 --> 00:01:23.030
But mostly yes, mostly it's about the music, because Mike insists on playing the deep cuts you never asked for and Tom will passionately defend a song about a muskrat falling in love Again.

00:01:23.030 --> 00:01:33.028
And just when you thought it couldn't get more chaotic, pip and Squeak, your two favourite pint-sized pundits are back to drop their unsolicited opinions.

00:01:33.028 --> 00:01:41.588
So prepare yourself for poorly timed jokes, tiny voices with big attitudes and at least one rant about disco.

00:01:41.588 --> 00:01:47.689
It's the MT alternative, because regular history podcasts just weren't weird enough.

00:01:47.689 --> 00:01:48.852
Roll it, boys.

00:02:00.081 --> 00:02:00.402
Tom?

00:02:00.402 --> 00:02:01.947
What the hell's going on bud?

00:02:01.947 --> 00:02:02.969
Not much, mike.

00:02:02.969 --> 00:02:04.064
What's going on with you?

00:02:04.064 --> 00:02:06.608
Another Saturday sitting here having a good time.

00:02:06.608 --> 00:02:10.500
Another Saturday night and I ain't got nobody.

00:02:10.841 --> 00:02:13.490
I thought Daniel wasn't allowing us to sing anymore.

00:02:15.181 --> 00:02:16.967
Well, you know what Daniel can do.

00:02:17.661 --> 00:02:18.699
Don't be nasty.

00:02:19.080 --> 00:02:25.993
I won't be nasty, but I don't understand what he's got against me defending the song about Muskrat.

00:02:25.993 --> 00:02:30.972
I just don't get it, that's sad what.

00:02:31.681 --> 00:02:34.326
Is Muskrat sad, or him telling you is sad.

00:02:35.430 --> 00:02:36.131
Kind of both.

00:02:36.252 --> 00:02:36.772
Kind of both.

00:02:36.919 --> 00:02:39.526
Yeah well, have you listened to the song?

00:02:40.269 --> 00:02:45.950
Anyway, yeah, Anyways yeah, anywho, here we are again.

00:02:45.971 --> 00:02:46.375

00:02:46.375 --> 00:02:48.122
Yeah, anywho, here we are again, lucky y'all.

00:02:48.704 --> 00:02:53.503
Anyways, anywho the weather, it's a little hot, eh yeah.

00:02:56.801 --> 00:03:00.711
I got a bowl of nut soup setting over here in these shorts.

00:03:01.180 --> 00:03:02.544

00:03:11.125 --> 00:03:15.651
Okay, so we'll be discussing 1977.

00:03:15.900 --> 00:03:16.985
I was 10 years old.

00:03:16.985 --> 00:03:18.905
Yee-hee, I remember 10.

00:03:18.905 --> 00:03:20.169
I lost a tooth.

00:03:20.340 --> 00:03:27.372
Yeah, well, last we had to do our redaction on the last episode because of obviously I'm confused.

00:03:27.372 --> 00:03:28.974
I'm old people, Give me a break.

00:03:29.502 --> 00:03:30.145
We're both old.

00:03:31.439 --> 00:03:33.448
But you know it is what it is.

00:03:33.448 --> 00:03:38.111
So we'll be discussing a lot of things from 1977.

00:03:38.111 --> 00:03:42.671
I'd like to talk about what's going on lately in our lives Anything.

00:03:43.280 --> 00:03:47.270
Yeah, well, just lots of bushes, lots of them.

00:03:47.270 --> 00:03:51.069
At the house we're planting bushes, oh, okay.

00:03:51.561 --> 00:03:53.347
I was starting with some weird 70s thing.

00:03:53.347 --> 00:03:54.830
Well, no, no, no, no.

00:03:57.140 --> 00:03:59.054
Listen back in the day, I'm listening.

00:03:59.054 --> 00:04:01.228
Back in the day that was ridiculous.

00:04:01.228 --> 00:04:06.733
I mean, come on, man, Mow that lawn.

00:04:06.733 --> 00:04:13.126
No doubt Hire somebody Need some landscape, anyway, there we go again.

00:04:14.140 --> 00:04:15.205
There we go again.

00:04:15.205 --> 00:04:16.483
How do we do that?

00:04:16.483 --> 00:04:17.968
It just happens, oh yeah.

00:04:18.028 --> 00:04:18.711
It's our stuff.

00:04:19.560 --> 00:04:24.146
Sorry for everybody out there, sorry, not sorry.

00:04:24.500 --> 00:04:28.884
No, really not, because this is what we do, exactly what we do.

00:04:30.201 --> 00:04:31.286
So work was a little hot.

00:04:31.286 --> 00:04:33.706
We've got quite a week coming up.

00:04:33.706 --> 00:04:36.889
We've got end of the quarter, end of the month.

00:04:36.889 --> 00:04:39.446
What do they want to try to make this time?

00:04:39.446 --> 00:04:39.987
To kill us.

00:04:39.987 --> 00:04:42.923
13 meals is what.

00:04:43.004 --> 00:04:43.466
I'm hearing.

00:04:44.682 --> 00:04:47.685
And what do we see of that Pizza Woo?

00:04:47.685 --> 00:04:49.331
We don't even get that anymore.

00:04:49.331 --> 00:04:53.947
Oh, I forgot that was our other general manager doing that for us.

00:04:53.947 --> 00:04:56.127
Someone appreciated us.

00:04:56.480 --> 00:04:58.766
Yes, they did, and then they moved on.

00:04:58.987 --> 00:05:05.204
People say well, it's pizza, yeah, but this is our own boss higher up doing this for us, because the company won't.

00:05:05.425 --> 00:05:10.891
Yeah Well, they will, but they won't.

00:05:11.641 --> 00:05:12.906
They can, but they won't.

00:05:14.100 --> 00:05:17.627
They would rather build offices and smoking places.

00:05:20.560 --> 00:05:22.226
Let's fix the things that the guys need.

00:05:22.701 --> 00:05:23.987
How about a battery changer?

00:05:24.959 --> 00:05:26.223
How about fix the docks?

00:05:26.223 --> 00:05:26.865
How about?

00:05:26.865 --> 00:05:29.565
We can go on, on and on.

00:05:29.565 --> 00:05:33.028
Let's make this fun now, on and on 1977.

00:05:33.028 --> 00:05:34.812
What are you doing?

00:05:36.761 --> 00:05:37.862
Oh, I just burped.

00:05:37.862 --> 00:05:40.228
Okay, sorry, it's a podcast, it went away.

00:05:40.249 --> 00:05:42.252
That's what we do, all right.

00:05:42.252 --> 00:05:54.701
So anyways, before we get into the music, probably give a little rundown of the old music situation, of the old uh things that happened in 1977 yeah, we can do.

00:05:54.701 --> 00:05:59.531
Yeah, that, that sounds good so you had uh, let's see global.

00:05:59.531 --> 00:06:01.663
We'll start with global and political events.

00:06:01.663 --> 00:06:12.709
You had jimmy carter becoming the US President January 20th, after defeating Gerald Ford in the 1976 election, carter takes office promising honesty and human rights.

00:06:12.709 --> 00:06:14.622
What about peanuts?

00:06:15.225 --> 00:06:17.547
I don't know, but I cared about Lai Bright.

00:06:17.547 --> 00:06:20.267
That's all I cared about at that point.

00:06:20.267 --> 00:06:21.598
Yeah, you weren't supposed to.

00:06:21.598 --> 00:06:22.322
I was 10.

00:06:22.322 --> 00:06:23.968
I mean, I knew who it was.

00:06:23.968 --> 00:06:28.605
Yeah, me too, I'll get it right this time I was 14.

00:06:28.605 --> 00:06:29.548
Yeah, but Peanuts.

00:06:29.548 --> 00:06:31.762
I remember the little song.

00:06:31.762 --> 00:06:34.327
All of the school kids made up what about his brother.

00:06:34.327 --> 00:06:36.411
Billy, we had a beer.

00:06:36.692 --> 00:06:37.353
Billy Beer.

00:06:37.473 --> 00:06:38.134
We had a beer.

00:06:38.134 --> 00:06:42.502
We had a beer of that, but it didn't make it.

00:06:42.502 --> 00:06:43.384
No, but it didn't make it.

00:06:43.384 --> 00:06:48.512
No, no, it was sacrificed Well, that's sad To the beer gods.

00:06:48.512 --> 00:06:49.494
To the beer gods.

00:06:49.494 --> 00:06:56.180
Yeah, you know, when you wake up and you're hungover and you've got to have that warm beer to get it back out.

00:06:56.339 --> 00:06:57.345
Oh no, no, no, no, no, no.

00:06:57.480 --> 00:07:05.908
Yeah, that was Billy Shot of whiskey or something worked for me Well yeah, well, you know, I have a way to get rid of hangovers altogether.

00:07:06.389 --> 00:07:06.889
Don't drink.

00:07:07.350 --> 00:07:08.773
No, stay drunk.

00:07:09.394 --> 00:07:10.154
Well, that's true too.

00:07:10.154 --> 00:07:17.790
Alright, so moving on Global things to be had.

00:07:17.790 --> 00:07:18.533
New York City blackout.

00:07:18.533 --> 00:07:19.980
A massive power outage plunges New York City into chaos.

00:07:19.980 --> 00:07:24.944
Looting, fires and arrests spike during a 25-hour outage.

00:07:24.944 --> 00:07:27.331
I do remember hearing that it was just in the papers.

00:07:29.584 --> 00:07:31.951
I wasn't living there, so who cared?

00:07:31.951 --> 00:07:35.028
It didn't affect me, but it's still kind of fucked up.

00:07:35.028 --> 00:07:47.365
It is the last naturally occurring case of smallpox was reported in Somalia in October, a major milestone of global health leading to the eventual declaration of smallpox eradication.

00:07:47.365 --> 00:07:52.168
I didn't realize that was not really that long ago when you think about it.

00:07:52.168 --> 00:07:55.223
Smallpox, that was done a long, long time ago.

00:07:55.324 --> 00:08:04.220
But you know, we're in other countries and have we went from, you know, curing things to creating things?

00:08:04.279 --> 00:08:06.367
Yeah, that's what it seems like lately.

00:08:06.367 --> 00:08:09.709
Right, things are worse than I don't know about worse, but bad.

00:08:09.709 --> 00:08:18.149
Let's see Spain holds its first democratic election since the Franco dictatorship, a key step in Spain's transition to democracy.

00:08:18.149 --> 00:08:32.494
And let's see South African anti-apartheid activist Steve Bilko or Biko, sorry about that dies in police custody because death drives international condemnation and fuels resistance to apartheid.

00:08:32.494 --> 00:08:36.287
Oh, wow, so that was all the political crap that you and I probably were like.

00:08:36.287 --> 00:08:37.892
You know half that stuff.

00:08:38.019 --> 00:08:39.407
Yeah, because see kids were kids.

00:08:40.159 --> 00:08:41.466
That was what it was meant to be.

00:08:41.466 --> 00:08:43.701
Kids were supposed to be kids.

00:08:43.783 --> 00:08:51.835
Being 14, I could tell you and I know you were 10 or whatever it was, but being 14, I certainly wasn't thinking about that.

00:08:51.835 --> 00:08:53.745
That's when you start thinking about.

00:08:53.745 --> 00:08:54.869
Well, you know.

00:08:55.089 --> 00:09:08.417
Yeah Well, see nowadays what's really sad 10-year-olds sad, but 10-year-olds are thinking about stuff like sex change operations, oh God.

00:09:08.417 --> 00:09:16.299
And 13-year-olds are thinking about they're not thinking about being a kid, they're not thinking about playing soccer and basketball.

00:09:17.224 --> 00:09:18.809
You've got some brainwashed parents.

00:09:18.830 --> 00:09:19.230
Exactly.

00:09:19.230 --> 00:09:22.529
It's just terrible, Dan You're the adult, you know best.

00:09:22.529 --> 00:09:24.826
Anyway, let's not get off track, let's move on.

00:09:24.826 --> 00:09:25.347
Let's see.

00:09:25.347 --> 00:09:29.748
So Kids were kids, we could be a kid.

00:09:30.360 --> 00:09:31.546
Science and technology.

00:09:31.546 --> 00:09:42.047
Apple II home computer is released in June, one of the first successful mass market PCs helping launch the personal computer and revolution, the personal computer revolution.

00:09:42.047 --> 00:09:52.307
Voyager 1 and 2 spacecraft are launched by NASA in September and August, destined to explore the outer planets and eventually interstellar space.

00:09:52.307 --> 00:09:57.202
Awesome MRIs, first used on a human oh shit.

00:09:57.725 --> 00:09:59.586
MRIs Used on humans.

00:10:00.059 --> 00:10:03.049
Revolutionary diagnostic technology begins a journey.

00:10:03.049 --> 00:10:04.582
Wow, 77.

00:10:04.582 --> 00:10:06.105
Wow, 77.

00:10:06.105 --> 00:10:07.708
Wow, good gracious.

00:10:08.049 --> 00:10:09.472
MRIs Very useful.

00:10:09.472 --> 00:10:12.602
Yeah, I had one the other week.

00:10:12.602 --> 00:10:13.865
Did you A CAT scan?

00:10:13.926 --> 00:10:15.087
or an MRI, oh it was a CT scan.

00:10:15.107 --> 00:10:15.950
Yeah, it was a CT.

00:10:15.950 --> 00:10:16.490
I'm sorry.

00:10:16.851 --> 00:10:20.442
Hey, harry, kind of all the same in a way, in a way away.

00:10:20.522 --> 00:10:27.528
but it's a little deeper with an MRI A little bit Alright, pop culture and entertainment.

00:10:28.389 --> 00:10:29.530
Star Wars was released.

00:10:29.530 --> 00:10:31.753
Tom, here's a big one, buddy.

00:10:31.753 --> 00:10:33.514
Elvis Presley died.

00:10:33.514 --> 00:10:38.162
I remember where I was, me too.

00:10:38.162 --> 00:10:41.648
I was at Riverside Park in Springfield, or Agua, mass, and we heard that while we were in a bus back.

00:10:42.279 --> 00:10:43.966
Yep Out with Kansas.

00:10:43.966 --> 00:10:48.750
I was sitting at a bar eating a smorgasbord.

00:10:48.750 --> 00:10:50.167
We're at the cafe.

00:10:50.167 --> 00:10:53.527
My mother worked at A little farming community.

00:10:53.527 --> 00:10:55.892
It was August of 77.

00:10:55.892 --> 00:11:00.985
So I was right in the middle of harvest, august 77, wasn't it?

00:11:00.985 --> 00:11:02.986
Yeah, somewhere around there.

00:11:02.986 --> 00:11:13.443
But anyway it was in the middle of harvest out with Kansas, and the place was packed when the news came over and I was sitting there.

00:11:13.625 --> 00:11:15.244
And I bet you there was silence too.

00:11:15.345 --> 00:11:21.432
Well, yeah because that's what I remember the most is everything just died, Got quiet.

00:11:22.000 --> 00:11:22.581
That's true.

00:11:23.787 --> 00:11:25.205
To me, that's when the music died.

00:11:25.399 --> 00:11:25.701
Even as kids.

00:11:25.701 --> 00:11:28.644
On this thing everybody was like holy crap, alright.

00:11:28.644 --> 00:11:31.166
So Studio 54 opens in New York City.

00:11:31.166 --> 00:11:36.811
The stories I've heard about that place holy crap, legendary, yeah disco.

00:11:36.811 --> 00:11:41.427
The club becomes a symbol of disco excess and celebrity nightlife in the late 70s.

00:11:41.539 --> 00:11:45.868
Yeah, see, now we have to go to the omelet shop to snort Coke in the corner table.

00:11:45.868 --> 00:11:46.469
We do.

00:11:46.469 --> 00:11:48.972
Oh, I mean other people do.

00:11:49.693 --> 00:11:53.270
All right Last on the pop culture and entertainment roots airs on TV.

00:11:53.270 --> 00:11:59.544
The miniseries drives huge ratings and sparks national conversations about slavery and American history.

00:11:59.544 --> 00:12:04.528
First time I watched that was actually I was in school Right.

00:12:06.440 --> 00:12:07.121
We hadn't reached that point yet.

00:12:07.142 --> 00:12:07.802
I forgot what class it was.

00:12:07.802 --> 00:12:08.905
But yeah, they brought in the old.

00:12:08.905 --> 00:12:10.711
You know they had that cart with the TV.

00:12:11.720 --> 00:12:12.806
Oh, that was like when you're.

00:12:13.851 --> 00:12:16.886
I remember my first Chubby, the kids that worked with the AV squad.

00:12:18.905 --> 00:12:20.510
Yeah, I remember my first Chubby.

00:12:20.510 --> 00:12:22.567
We're not having class today.

00:12:22.567 --> 00:12:24.025
Woo, it's a film.

00:12:24.820 --> 00:12:27.043
Let's see oh other strange and notable events.

00:12:27.043 --> 00:12:29.746
Oh yeah, son of Sam, serial killer, terrorizes New York.

00:12:29.807 --> 00:12:30.008
City.

00:12:30.520 --> 00:12:33.746
David Berkowitz Arrest in August ends a year of fear in the city.

00:12:33.746 --> 00:12:37.274
Son of Sam, that's not bad, isn't that something?

00:12:37.274 --> 00:12:37.619
Let's see.

00:12:37.619 --> 00:12:43.868
Then we had France bans a Concorde from Paris-New York route due to noise complaints and environmental concerns.

00:12:44.308 --> 00:12:46.332
They were screaming about it.

00:12:46.373 --> 00:12:55.927
then Disco continues in its rise, with the Bee Gees, donna Summer and more dominating the airwaves, which we'll probably discuss that later too.

00:12:55.927 --> 00:12:58.923
Any other ones?

00:12:58.923 --> 00:13:00.149
Let's see Gas prices.

00:13:00.679 --> 00:13:03.323
Tom oh boy Gas, well and just.

00:13:03.664 --> 00:13:06.148
Average 62 cents a gallon.

00:13:07.024 --> 00:13:10.059
And now it's only 280.

00:13:10.059 --> 00:13:11.605
Yeah, mine went up to 280.

00:13:11.679 --> 00:13:12.839
It was 265.

00:13:12.839 --> 00:13:13.893
I don't know what's going on.

00:13:13.893 --> 00:13:14.339

00:13:18.884 --> 00:13:21.605
That might be it, or hear me out.

00:13:21.605 --> 00:13:24.134
We have to change to the summer gas.

00:13:24.134 --> 00:13:25.458
It costs me Winter fuel and the summer gas.

00:13:25.458 --> 00:13:25.740
It costs more.

00:13:26.240 --> 00:13:27.806
Yeah, the winter fuel and the summer fuel.

00:13:27.907 --> 00:13:28.750
Isn't that the crock?

00:13:28.750 --> 00:13:31.028

00:13:31.028 --> 00:13:33.846
This is dumb Anyway.

00:13:33.966 --> 00:13:35.230
Yeah, so let's see.

00:13:35.230 --> 00:13:42.947
The energy crisis from early in the 70s was still fresh and Americans were adjusting to higher fuel prices, downsized cars and gas-saving tips.

00:13:42.947 --> 00:13:46.830
The Department of Energy was created that year to tackle energy concerns.

00:13:46.830 --> 00:13:54.753
That's where the mistake happened Carpool and cars are starting to shift from big V8s to smaller, more efficient models Dumbasses, toys.

00:13:55.674 --> 00:13:56.356
Dumbasses.

00:13:57.239 --> 00:13:57.799
You're a dumbass.

00:13:57.799 --> 00:14:01.091
Okay, we got fashion trends of 1977.

00:14:01.091 --> 00:14:03.393
Flared jeans, bell-bottoms were everywhere.

00:14:03.393 --> 00:14:06.755
Polyester, polyester too 1977.

00:14:06.755 --> 00:14:12.340
Lared jeans, bell bottoms were everywhere, polyester shoes, only thing worse about that is, if you caught on fire, it was over for you.

00:14:12.340 --> 00:14:13.182
Yeah, because it would melt right on you.

00:14:13.182 --> 00:14:13.690
Melt right on, yeah.

00:14:13.690 --> 00:14:16.849
Disco fashion took over Glitter gold.

00:14:17.320 --> 00:14:21.965
Yeah, let's all have unicorns and dance around Someone here had platform shoes.

00:14:22.046 --> 00:14:24.605
I think Disco Did you have platform shoes?

00:14:25.140 --> 00:14:25.946

00:14:25.946 --> 00:14:26.360
That's why.

00:14:26.380 --> 00:14:27.302

I did have the afro.

00:14:36.486 --> 00:14:39.101
Not really, I had curly hair, but I made it go.

00:14:39.101 --> 00:14:40.643
I had to fuck with it.

00:14:40.643 --> 00:14:43.866
Track suits People are still wearing them, fucking things.

00:14:44.167 --> 00:14:45.587
What is a track suit?

00:14:45.587 --> 00:14:47.649

00:14:47.649 --> 00:14:48.370

I said the name of that song while he was drinking his beverage.

00:20:28.988 --> 00:20:30.652
You all right, bud.

00:20:30.652 --> 00:20:33.685
This is why we do this.

00:20:33.685 --> 00:20:36.226
It's the reaction.

00:20:36.226 --> 00:20:39.845
It's torn between two lovers Feeling like a fool.

00:20:39.845 --> 00:20:42.747
Loving both of you is breaking all the rules.

00:20:42.747 --> 00:20:44.431
Wow, All right.

00:20:44.431 --> 00:20:45.923

Your love has lifted me.

00:20:58.346 --> 00:21:02.006
You're going to laugh.

00:21:02.006 --> 00:21:08.746
I like this song, don't Leave Me this Way by Thelma Houston, but the only thing that sucks now is well, I won't get into that part, but anyways moving on.

00:21:08.766 --> 00:21:13.048
Wait a minute, don't spark our interest and then walk away.

00:21:13.048 --> 00:21:13.789
Who's walking?

00:21:13.829 --> 00:21:14.872

You opened that box.

00:21:25.960 --> 00:21:26.813
I don't want to seem like I'm anti-anything at this point.

I was okay, yeah, anti.

00:21:27.670 --> 00:21:32.150
Well, you know, let's put it this way there are a lot of certain parades they have that play that song.

00:21:32.150 --> 00:21:34.032
I guess it's their theme song Christmas parades.

00:21:34.032 --> 00:21:35.353
It might be their theme song.

00:21:35.615 --> 00:21:36.521
Christmas parades.

00:21:36.541 --> 00:21:37.305

00:21:56.971 --> 00:21:58.077
Barbra was weird.

00:21:58.440 --> 00:21:59.701
Yeah, it's kind of a dumb song.

00:21:59.902 --> 00:22:00.382

00:22:14.645 --> 00:22:15.828

You got the best of mine.

00:22:26.773 --> 00:22:29.105

That was the top 40.

00:22:40.044 --> 00:22:41.249
Not from us.

00:22:42.480 --> 00:22:45.359
This is top 40 from All these other stupid sites.

00:22:46.825 --> 00:22:47.749
And they were pretty good.

00:22:47.749 --> 00:22:54.859
A lot of good songs in there, a lot of good songs in there, but I didn't hear Black Betty.

00:22:57.008 --> 00:22:57.429
You didn't.

00:22:58.500 --> 00:23:00.404
Was it in there or did we miss it?

00:23:00.404 --> 00:23:01.545
Did I skip over it?

00:23:01.545 --> 00:23:02.321
I don't know.

00:23:02.423 --> 00:23:03.667
But I just never heard it.

00:23:03.900 --> 00:23:04.328
Oh Black Betty.

00:23:04.328 --> 00:23:04.704
Oh Black Betty.

00:23:04.704 --> 00:23:04.898
Sorry it's not in here, miss it.

00:23:04.898 --> 00:23:04.922
Did I skip over it?

00:23:04.922 --> 00:23:05.476
I don't know, but I just never heard it, oh, but.

00:23:07.525 --> 00:23:07.967
I'm sorry.

00:23:08.240 --> 00:23:08.903
It's not in here.

00:23:08.903 --> 00:23:12.722
See, they're silly, not stupid.

00:23:12.722 --> 00:23:13.728
There's a difference.

00:23:14.599 --> 00:23:20.765
Now, if you want to break down some of the Hotel California song, for instance, we can do that.

00:23:21.307 --> 00:23:25.367
The story of meaning this is not our meaning, nope, not ours.

00:23:25.367 --> 00:23:26.185
This haunting this is not our meaning, nope, not ours.

00:23:26.185 --> 00:23:34.125
This haunting classic is often interpreted as a commentary on the hedonistic excess of American life, particularly in California.

00:23:34.125 --> 00:23:37.182
Imagine that, yeah, imagine that, in the 70s.

00:23:37.182 --> 00:23:43.851
The lyrics tell the surreal tale of checking into a luxurious hotel where you can check out any time of your life but you can never leave.

00:23:43.851 --> 00:23:48.856
Ooh, scary Metaphor alert, fun fact.

00:23:48.876 --> 00:23:53.465
Fun fact Don Feldner wrote the iconic guitar riff while messing around with a 12-string.

00:23:53.465 --> 00:23:58.892
Don Henley called it our interpretation of the high life in LA Legacy.

00:23:58.892 --> 00:24:01.733
In the 1977 Grammy for Record of the Year.

00:24:01.733 --> 00:24:04.769
It has been covered and carried endlessly.

00:24:04.769 --> 00:24:07.730
The dual guitar solo, one of the most legendary of the year.

00:24:07.730 --> 00:24:14.874
Yeah Dancing Queen actually released in 76, but the song peaked in the US in 77.

00:24:14.874 --> 00:24:20.611
It's the only song that ABBA had that hit number one in the US.

00:24:20.611 --> 00:24:24.527
Really, yeah, still played at weddings, retro nights and drag shows.

00:24:24.527 --> 00:24:26.069
Drag shows Is that where people drag?

00:24:26.089 --> 00:24:27.693
played at weddings, retro nights and drag shows.

00:24:27.693 --> 00:24:28.997
Drag shows Is that where people drag people?

00:24:28.997 --> 00:24:30.402
Okay, wait a minute, Wait a minute.

00:24:30.402 --> 00:24:32.838
How do weddings and drag shows got anything to do with each other?

00:24:32.838 --> 00:24:34.823
That's not a damn thing.

00:24:34.823 --> 00:24:37.465
Abba Dancing Wing, come on.

00:24:38.339 --> 00:24:39.103
What did you say?

00:24:39.103 --> 00:24:39.865
Young and lean.

00:24:39.865 --> 00:24:40.107
What?

00:24:42.602 --> 00:24:49.086
This is me Green machine Tore out the neighbors, All right we got another one.

00:24:49.105 --> 00:24:55.647
Sir Duke Stevie wrote this joyful jam as a tribute to Duke Ellington and other jazz greats who paved the way.

00:24:55.647 --> 00:24:59.425
It's a celebration of music itself and you can hear the joy in every horn line.

00:24:59.425 --> 00:25:01.371
Which is true, it's one of them tunes.

00:25:01.371 --> 00:25:02.766
Is that the one that Duke?

00:25:02.766 --> 00:25:08.025
Still used to teach rhythm and brass in music schools and, honestly, it just makes you smile.

00:25:08.025 --> 00:25:10.191
Let's see.

00:25:10.799 --> 00:25:16.249
Yeah, you know breaking down other songs, a lot of good stuff going on in 77.

00:25:16.249 --> 00:25:23.122
When I was 10, man, there was so much good stuff going on 77.

00:25:23.122 --> 00:25:24.085
I was, you were 10?

00:25:24.085 --> 00:25:26.751
Yeah, I was little.

00:25:26.751 --> 00:25:29.448
All this stuff really comes flowing back.

00:25:29.448 --> 00:25:45.794
It's just crazy how you forget stuff and you poke it back, but all of a sudden the song Will jar that memory, will go in the back of your mind and pull out something you never thought about for years.

00:25:45.794 --> 00:26:03.864
And then all of a sudden you're like wow, I remember this day and when we were riding our bikes out at the sand pits and it was 15 miles from the house and our parents never even worried about us unless we weren't home when the streetlights came on.

00:26:04.224 --> 00:26:04.845
Right right.

00:26:05.045 --> 00:26:08.048
I mean, it was crazy times back then.

00:26:08.048 --> 00:26:12.191
I enjoyed the hell out of growing up in the 70s.

00:26:12.191 --> 00:26:14.092
It was so awesome.

00:26:15.292 --> 00:26:19.155
It was, the 70s were great Come on people being outside riding my bike all the time.

00:26:19.817 --> 00:26:20.576
Prove me wrong.

00:26:28.339 --> 00:26:29.722
Tell me your stories of the 70s on our podcast.

00:26:29.722 --> 00:26:31.045
Think most of our listeners probably our age anyways.

00:26:31.045 --> 00:26:32.107
So yeah, they can relate.

00:26:32.107 --> 00:26:35.153
They are any people that are too young that listen.

00:26:35.153 --> 00:26:40.421
Well, you missed a good time you did miss a great time and you could say well, I couldn't live without this.

00:26:40.421 --> 00:26:43.366
Back then we knew no different, nope, could, could live with all that shit.

00:26:43.386 --> 00:26:45.330
There wasn't anything there to live without.

00:26:45.852 --> 00:26:46.394
Exactly.

00:26:46.394 --> 00:26:50.250

Well, because the water came out and flooded us all the way.

00:28:22.911 --> 00:28:26.031
Are we going to go over this?

00:28:26.031 --> 00:28:26.519
It's pretty funny.

00:28:27.701 --> 00:28:29.327
I told you not to build there.

00:28:29.327 --> 00:28:33.827
It's hurtful, you know, you did it to yourself.

00:28:33.827 --> 00:28:35.928
You could have lived closer to the studio.

00:28:35.928 --> 00:28:37.184
You had that option.

00:28:37.184 --> 00:28:40.971
Well, well, well, then nobody would have to go pick you up.

00:28:41.019 --> 00:28:43.586
Listen, listen, okay, I'm listening.

00:28:43.586 --> 00:28:44.549
This is why.

00:28:44.549 --> 00:28:45.211
Why?

00:28:45.211 --> 00:28:51.131
Because I read an article in the newspaper the other day.

00:28:51.131 --> 00:28:53.385
Wait a minute, hold up for one, just one second.

00:28:53.385 --> 00:28:54.470
I don't mean to interrupt.

00:28:54.470 --> 00:28:59.144
You read something In a newspaper article.

00:28:59.144 --> 00:29:00.087
Oh, crap, man.

00:29:00.087 --> 00:29:04.782
Okay, about, no, you knew how to read Car accidents.

00:29:04.782 --> 00:29:06.738
Okay, about, no, you knew how to read Car accidents.

00:29:06.738 --> 00:29:12.132
Okay, happen within 25 miles of where you live.

00:29:12.132 --> 00:29:17.439
Okay, by God, I moved, I'm not going to have no car.

00:29:17.439 --> 00:29:19.432
I moved, I don't.

00:29:19.432 --> 00:29:22.469
Okay, but it can still happen miles from wherever you are.

00:29:22.469 --> 00:29:26.778
No, I moved, are you not getting this?

00:29:26.778 --> 00:29:28.964
But you're still.

00:29:28.964 --> 00:29:33.073
If you're 25 miles from your house or less, you're still in that.

00:29:33.073 --> 00:29:37.505
It doesn't matter where you moved to, it does matter.

00:29:37.505 --> 00:29:40.948
Okay, I read the paper where I was.

00:29:40.948 --> 00:29:52.678
Okay, so if I'm here at the studio, I live here, let's say you live here I said, let's say Hypothetically Okay, okay.

I'm gonna move.

00:29:55.053 --> 00:29:57.278
I'm 25 miles from here.

00:29:57.278 --> 00:29:59.959
If I move 50 miles from here, I'm good.

00:29:59.959 --> 00:30:05.434
No, it's 25 miles from where you are Right, so you move.

00:30:05.434 --> 00:30:06.538
That doesn't help you.

00:30:06.538 --> 00:30:07.769
Squeak, sure, it does.

00:30:07.769 --> 00:30:10.219
No, squeak, squeak.

I have a wrench Aunt.

00:30:12.477 --> 00:30:15.397
Yeah, because Troy's bringing your ass in.

00:30:15.397 --> 00:30:19.069
Well, he hasn't wrecked and he's got a pretty bad record.

00:30:19.069 --> 00:30:22.800
I seem to remember someone jumped from the helicopter one time.

00:30:22.800 --> 00:30:24.215
No, no, he's got a bad record.

00:30:24.215 --> 00:30:25.615
You don't understand.

00:30:25.775 --> 00:30:26.478
And someone was.

00:30:26.650 --> 00:30:27.231
You remember?

00:30:27.231 --> 00:30:28.457
Listen back in the day.

00:30:28.457 --> 00:30:33.865
Okay, since these dumbasses, mike and Tom, are doing this back in the day.

00:30:33.865 --> 00:30:34.933
Mike and Tom are respectable guys.

Mike and Tom are doing this back in the day.

00:30:36.721 --> 00:30:38.127
Mike and Tom are respectable guys.

00:30:38.127 --> 00:30:38.549
Mike, tom, exactly.

00:30:38.549 --> 00:30:40.896
Oh, that made my ears ring.

00:30:41.096 --> 00:30:41.759
Oh sorry.

00:30:42.069 --> 00:30:49.443
I hit a note I shouldn't have, probably when you confused me when you said Mike and Tom are respectable people.

00:30:49.443 --> 00:30:50.656
They are, they're great.

00:30:50.656 --> 00:31:02.682
That's what I said, but continue, listen, they were talking about all this old stuff, okay, well, now I don't know where I was going with that.

00:31:02.682 --> 00:31:05.575
I confused you.

00:31:05.575 --> 00:31:07.799
Yeah, a little.

00:31:07.799 --> 00:31:09.123
Excellent, my job is done.

00:31:22.662 --> 00:31:25.259
I said let's pick a topic to talk about.

00:31:25.259 --> 00:31:27.778
Why the hell did it come up to food?

00:31:27.778 --> 00:31:31.630
I thought you meant partake, not participate.

00:31:31.630 --> 00:31:34.920
Oh, we're participating in the conversation.

00:31:34.920 --> 00:31:37.858
Oh, I thought we were partaking.

00:31:37.858 --> 00:31:39.636
That's why you mentioned food.

00:31:39.636 --> 00:31:43.397
Well, partaking makes me hungry.

00:31:43.397 --> 00:31:46.355

Nope, oh.

00:32:10.742 --> 00:32:14.907
Then how do you know what it did?

00:32:14.907 --> 00:32:15.950
I was little already.

00:32:15.950 --> 00:32:16.224
I was little already.

00:32:16.224 --> 00:32:16.662
I didn't need that.

00:32:16.662 --> 00:32:17.518
You were little, but kind of wide.

00:32:17.518 --> 00:32:20.980
Well, no, no, that was my girlfriend.

00:32:20.980 --> 00:32:23.536
No, no, no, I think it's you.

00:32:23.536 --> 00:32:25.642
You're still kind of wide I am.

00:32:26.210 --> 00:32:27.856
Have you not seen the picture we took?

00:32:27.856 --> 00:32:32.172
Okay, just because I have a different shirt on, it shows my belly.

00:32:32.172 --> 00:32:34.173
You know, when you're on camera, that count 20 pounds.

00:32:34.173 --> 00:32:36.115
My belly, ooh, ooh.

00:32:36.115 --> 00:32:39.238
You know, when you're on camera, it adds 20 pounds.

00:32:39.238 --> 00:32:39.877
It does.

00:32:39.877 --> 00:32:42.200
Why do I look the same?

00:32:42.200 --> 00:32:43.661
You don't.

00:32:43.921 --> 00:32:45.863
Have you looked at your socks?

00:32:45.863 --> 00:32:49.484
Wait a minute, we're not going there again.

00:32:49.484 --> 00:32:50.185
You will.

00:32:50.185 --> 00:32:51.467
My socks are fine.

00:32:51.467 --> 00:32:52.567
They're covering my feet.

00:32:52.567 --> 00:32:53.869
They're serving the purpose.

00:32:53.869 --> 00:33:00.561
Yeah, because if you undid your socks, you'd look like you were turning into a werewolf.

00:33:00.561 --> 00:33:04.299
What are you?

00:33:04.299 --> 00:33:06.752
What the hell are you talking about those toes?

00:33:06.752 --> 00:33:09.662
Are you having a climax?

00:33:09.662 --> 00:33:11.334
Why are you making fun of my toes.

00:33:11.334 --> 00:33:13.740
I'm just saying I'm hiding them.

00:33:13.740 --> 00:33:14.894
That's why we wear socks.

00:33:15.013 --> 00:33:18.036
All right, let me move on to the next food item.

00:33:18.036 --> 00:33:20.936
Thank you, jelly belly, jelly beans.

00:33:20.936 --> 00:33:22.394
I love jelly donuts?

00:33:22.394 --> 00:33:23.499
Yeah, of course you do.

00:33:23.499 --> 00:33:26.923
These are jelly beans, beans, beans Made out of jelly.

00:33:26.923 --> 00:33:27.625
Okay, wait a minute.

00:33:27.625 --> 00:33:32.095
I like cornbread with my beans, not jelly.

00:33:32.095 --> 00:33:34.159
These are jelly beans.

00:33:35.141 --> 00:33:36.363
Well, that's stupid.

00:33:36.363 --> 00:33:39.073
Made out of jelly.

00:33:39.073 --> 00:33:41.738
Yeah, that would be squishy beans.

00:33:41.738 --> 00:33:43.039
That's not good.

00:33:43.039 --> 00:33:44.001
People like them.

00:33:44.001 --> 00:33:45.344
Sweet, really.

00:33:45.344 --> 00:33:52.902
Yeah, there's different flavors.

00:33:52.902 --> 00:33:56.689
I suppose they got some kind of stupid-ass flavor like black licorice.

00:33:56.689 --> 00:33:59.307
Matter of fact, that's one of my favorites.

00:33:59.307 --> 00:34:01.451
See what you heard me.

00:34:01.451 --> 00:34:02.594
You knew that.

00:34:02.594 --> 00:34:03.936
Now wait a minute.

00:34:03.936 --> 00:34:08.925
Okay, really, yep, delicious.

00:34:08.925 --> 00:34:12.115
Don't be so proud about that.

00:34:12.115 --> 00:34:14.161
Why, that's dumb, not really.

00:34:14.161 --> 00:34:15.123
Yeah, kind of.

00:34:15.123 --> 00:34:18.181
You know how many people get black licorice and they don't want it.

00:34:18.181 --> 00:34:19.525
And then I end up getting it.

00:34:19.525 --> 00:34:22.056
Yeah, that's a bonus for me.

00:34:22.056 --> 00:34:24.619
Bonus, that's exactly right.

00:34:24.619 --> 00:34:29.240
That's like getting dirt thrown on you at a damn pitman.

00:34:29.240 --> 00:34:30.021
Not at all.

00:34:30.021 --> 00:34:32.559
You should see the stash I have at my house.

00:34:32.559 --> 00:34:33.914
Yeah, it's a stash I have at my house.

00:34:33.914 --> 00:34:34.295
Yeah, it's a stash.

00:34:34.295 --> 00:34:36.746
Anytime you want to come over, I'll give you some.

00:34:36.746 --> 00:34:38.148
Nope, I'm good.

00:34:38.148 --> 00:34:41.239
Alright, I'd rather eat testicles.

00:34:41.239 --> 00:34:46.237
Yeah well, that's another story for another day.

00:34:46.237 --> 00:34:48.396
I'm going to move on to this one now.

00:34:49.150 --> 00:34:51.554
Mcdonald's breakfast menu expands.

00:34:51.554 --> 00:34:52.958
Oh, there you go.

00:34:52.958 --> 00:34:55.815
Mcdonald's rolled out more of its breakfast menu.

00:34:55.815 --> 00:34:59.172
While the Egg McMuffin debuted earlier.

00:34:59.172 --> 00:35:02.556
Dumbasses McDonald's breakfast.

00:35:02.556 --> 00:35:04.876
Hey, egg McMuffin.

00:35:04.876 --> 00:35:11.934
From what I understand, on those drunk nights when you're out partying, those McDonald's breakfasts came in very handy.

00:35:11.934 --> 00:35:15.038
Okay, okay, that's fine, they did.

00:35:15.038 --> 00:35:20.367
This is what I heard, not from experience, well, well, this is from experience.

00:35:20.367 --> 00:35:26.949
Okay, they don't breakfast pretty damn good when you're drunk, right, okay, but what?

00:35:26.949 --> 00:35:27.793
They don't.

00:35:27.793 --> 00:35:33.000
Nothing beat the damn Omelette House Three o'clock in the morning.

00:35:33.000 --> 00:35:34.556
What about the Waffle House?

00:35:34.556 --> 00:35:39.315
Omelette House, waffle House, omelet House, waffle House, it's all about the same thing.

00:35:39.315 --> 00:35:44.967
And listen, if you, I just like the bacon at the Waffle.

00:35:45.009 --> 00:35:45.331
House Well.

00:35:45.692 --> 00:35:58.402
I was talking to this waitress that was at the Waffle House and she was telling me about the lottery and how people are stupid for doing that and everything.

00:35:58.402 --> 00:36:02.836
And well, I said, well, why, why wouldn't you do the lottery?

00:36:02.836 --> 00:36:07.846
She said, well, $4 million, what the hell for?

00:36:07.846 --> 00:36:09.208
Why would I do that?

00:36:09.208 --> 00:36:20.275
Oh, you're doing so much better here at the damn Waffle House, I guess, because flip a damn burger, well, that's paying the bills.

00:36:20.275 --> 00:36:22.476
I don't understand the way.

00:36:22.476 --> 00:36:27.753
Her thinking was that was an honest day's work, yeah, well.

00:36:27.753 --> 00:36:37.148
And she told me she said, well, maybe, if it got way up there Like way up there, it's $4 million.

00:36:37.148 --> 00:36:42.637
Well, and then my cousin what an idiot he is, your cousin Vinny.

00:36:42.637 --> 00:36:45.557
No, oh no, this is a damn dumb cousin.

00:36:45.797 --> 00:36:53.483
Oh, you know how people talk about the lottery and how well, this is what I'd do if I won the lottery.

00:36:53.483 --> 00:36:54.197
Well, listen to what that dumbass said.

00:36:54.197 --> 00:36:54.737
What did that dumbass say?

00:36:54.737 --> 00:36:55.025
Well, okay is what I'd do if I won a lot.

00:36:55.025 --> 00:36:56.061
Well, listen to what that dumbass said.

00:36:56.061 --> 00:36:57.557
What did that dumbass say?

00:36:57.557 --> 00:36:59.307
Well, okay, $4 million.

00:36:59.307 --> 00:37:04.380
Well, if I won $4 million, I'd do one of two things.

00:37:04.380 --> 00:37:06.570
I'm listening, okay.

00:37:06.570 --> 00:37:10.918
First off, if I got $4 million, I can do any damn thing.

00:37:10.918 --> 00:37:13.623
I want not just one of two things.

00:37:13.623 --> 00:37:18.597
Well, first thing, I would pay off my Bronco.

00:37:18.597 --> 00:37:27.010
Okay, or there's an, or yeah, or shingle my roof, put a new roof on this.

00:37:27.010 --> 00:37:28.215
Why can't he do both?

00:37:28.215 --> 00:37:31.438
Well, that's what I'm trying to explain.

00:37:31.438 --> 00:37:35.221
My frickin' cousin is a damn idiot.

00:37:35.221 --> 00:37:37.501
He doesn't understand.

00:37:37.501 --> 00:37:49.581
Well, and oh, I put a roof on this house and if there was any left, you got four million dollars.

00:37:49.581 --> 00:37:51.092
How much is that roof costing you?

00:37:51.092 --> 00:37:54.168
Well, if there's anything left, what a dumbass.

00:37:54.168 --> 00:37:57.661
Okay, so we established some of your family members aren't too bright.

00:37:57.661 --> 00:37:59.255
No, no, they're not.

00:37:59.255 --> 00:38:00.601
We established this.

00:38:00.601 --> 00:38:01.186
Yes, we established this.

00:38:01.530 --> 00:38:03.938
All right, so let's move on to the next little snack.

00:39:07.302 --> 00:39:10.956
Yeah, well, see, that just doesn't even All right.

00:39:10.976 --> 00:39:12.721
How about fruit roll-ups, greek?

00:39:12.721 --> 00:39:14.445
How about them?

00:39:14.445 --> 00:39:15.827
Do you like those?

00:39:15.827 --> 00:39:20.565
They're a little hard to get off of the roll and stuff.

00:39:20.565 --> 00:39:25.681
When they get hot, they stick together and, oh, just eat the whole thing.

00:39:25.681 --> 00:39:29.041
Well, that's crazy.

00:39:29.041 --> 00:39:29.925
How is it crazy?

00:39:29.925 --> 00:39:31.313
Well, then they're gone.

00:39:32.940 --> 00:39:35.460
If you unroll them, what are you saving it for?

00:39:35.460 --> 00:39:38.947
Well, because you don't want to eat it all up.

00:39:38.947 --> 00:39:42.612
Why, if they're gone, then what are you going to eat?

00:39:42.612 --> 00:39:47.724
Buy yourself a couple of them, okay, then you eat them all up.

00:39:47.724 --> 00:39:48.588
And then what?

00:39:48.588 --> 00:39:50.496
Alright, I'm out.

00:39:50.496 --> 00:39:53.358
I'm sorry I took this path with you.

00:39:53.358 --> 00:39:56.061
I really regret it now, do you?

00:39:56.061 --> 00:40:02.210
Yeah, because it wasn't interesting for me at all listening to you ramble on about food.

00:40:02.210 --> 00:40:07.016
But I like food, I know you do, but you know what I think.

00:40:07.016 --> 00:40:09.322
I'm going to cut this now and I'm out.

00:40:09.322 --> 00:40:12.152
Buddy, what I'll see you next time.

00:40:12.152 --> 00:40:13.331
Are you out of food?

00:40:13.331 --> 00:40:14.920
I'm out of everything.

00:40:14.920 --> 00:40:16.920
Well then, I'm out of here too.

00:40:16.920 --> 00:40:18.887
All right, buddy Later.

00:40:18.887 --> 00:40:21.101
Buddy, bye, talk to you later.

00:40:21.101 --> 00:40:21.947
Have a good life.

00:40:21.947 --> 00:40:25.054
Hopefully I don't see you again.

00:40:25.054 --> 00:40:27.666
I mean, I didn't mean that.

00:40:27.666 --> 00:40:28.208
Wait what?

00:40:36.318 --> 00:40:37.601
Well, bye, bye, I'm going to go.

00:40:37.601 --> 00:40:38.601
Now, I didn't know what I was saying.

00:40:38.601 --> 00:40:44.748
Yeah, you're going to go, dad, well, well, well, they found something else to talk about at least food, and complain about at the same time.

00:40:44.768 --> 00:40:53.144
Well, anyway, leave it to Squeak to bring up snacks from that year Squeak Anyway, yeah to Squeak, to bring up snacks from that year.

00:40:53.144 --> 00:40:55.557
Anyway, oldie Squeak, that's all I can say.

00:40:55.677 --> 00:41:00.945
Yeah well you know, at this point it doesn't even bother me anymore.

00:41:00.945 --> 00:41:02.802
Now it's just him.

00:41:02.802 --> 00:41:07.922
Let him do his thing, get a segment over and be on his way.

00:41:08.304 --> 00:41:14.385
And I gotta tell you everybody has said we like to hear the little dudes.

00:41:14.385 --> 00:41:16.260
What happened to the little dudes?

00:41:16.260 --> 00:41:18.237
Here they are, we're hearing them live.

00:41:18.277 --> 00:41:18.880
There you go.

00:41:18.880 --> 00:41:25.003
Well, maybe not live, but you're hearing them, so should we get back into music?

00:41:25.284 --> 00:41:25.806
I am ready.

00:41:26.655 --> 00:41:40.014
And then we'll throw in some other little weird tidbits from 77.bits tidbits you would like to go first, any songs in particular that stick out to you well everybody knows and people.

00:41:40.014 --> 00:41:43.360
These aren't going to be necessarily top 40 songs either.

00:41:43.360 --> 00:41:47.606
These are songs from that year that Tom and I like.

00:41:48.106 --> 00:41:56.077
Right, and everybody knows that Dr Hook was one of my go-to bands from that era.

00:41:56.077 --> 00:41:58.219
No People know this.

00:41:59.960 --> 00:42:02.498
I've never heard you speak of this on the podcast, ever.

00:42:02.679 --> 00:42:12.255
Goodness, all right, he has dementia, but anyway, alcohol dementia, but anyway, but alcohol dementia.

00:42:12.255 --> 00:42:31.862
And we went to this Dr Hook song that was out in the 70s that I personally didn't really care for but I thought it was used to bringing up because it's still Dr Hook, all righty, and it's Walk Right In, sit Right Down.

00:42:32.364 --> 00:42:33.085
That's Dr Hook yeah.

00:42:34.175 --> 00:42:35.219
Walk right in.

00:42:36.237 --> 00:42:37.663
Does he do a cover of that?

00:42:37.663 --> 00:42:38.336
Is that not?

00:42:38.356 --> 00:42:40.842
somebody's older song Baby, let your hair hang down.

00:42:41.414 --> 00:42:42.641
Is that really their tune?

00:42:42.641 --> 00:42:44.782
I'm pretty sure it was All right.

00:42:44.782 --> 00:42:47.561
For some reason I thought it was some oldie song.

00:42:47.661 --> 00:42:48.505
It might have been.

00:42:50.755 --> 00:42:51.237
But they do a version.

00:42:51.257 --> 00:42:54.126
Well, it was an oldies song, whether it's theirs or it was 77.

00:42:54.146 --> 00:42:54.588
It was an oldies.

00:42:54.588 --> 00:42:59.027
I thought it was something older, but again, it just has that sound to it.

00:42:59.027 --> 00:42:59.710
It does don't.

00:42:59.710 --> 00:43:02.996
It Absolutely does, but that was the name of their album.

00:43:03.016 --> 00:43:04.197
That came on anyway.

00:43:04.197 --> 00:43:12.945
Okay, but yeah, that was one of the songs and it wasn't, like I said, one of my favorites by them, by no means, but they were there.

00:43:13.045 --> 00:43:14.086
Oh, that's why we're doing it.

00:43:14.086 --> 00:43:14.927
It doesn't have to be.

00:43:14.967 --> 00:43:16.768
Yeah, they were there, it doesn't have to be.

00:43:17.048 --> 00:43:19.431
Oh, that wasn't a top ten song or a top four.

00:43:19.492 --> 00:43:22.740
No, he's a song from that.

00:43:22.740 --> 00:43:23.726
But it was known.

00:43:23.726 --> 00:43:28.440
People bought that album and people listened to that song.

00:43:28.440 --> 00:43:29.221
They loved it.

00:43:29.400 --> 00:43:30.802
So nothing wrong with that.

00:43:30.822 --> 00:43:31.663
There you go.

00:43:31.663 --> 00:43:32.603
How about you?

00:43:32.884 --> 00:43:41.601
All right, I know we said songs, but as I started going through the list of songs, right, I realized a lot of these.

00:43:41.601 --> 00:43:44.501
I love the albums, every song on the album.

00:43:44.601 --> 00:43:55.925
Exactly, you buy that album do that song so my first one I'm going to start up no surprise and I believe it came out late in 76, but it kicked ass in 77, was the Eagles' Hotel California.

00:43:55.925 --> 00:44:03.061
Oh yeah, you know I like to pick that one song, but there's a lot of great songs on that album.

00:44:03.061 --> 00:44:05.050
That album I could put on and just play the whole thing and be happy.

00:44:05.391 --> 00:44:06.014
That comes later.

00:44:06.938 --> 00:44:09.306
I know we said songs I know we said songs.

00:44:09.306 --> 00:44:10.856
Hotel California was a classic.

00:44:10.856 --> 00:44:13.385
I didn't mean to jump in like that, but I love the album.

00:44:13.726 --> 00:44:25.400
Right and see, and the cool thing about it is I was young enough to realize that later on I was going to hear all of those songs off of that album later on and it was going to be great.

00:44:25.400 --> 00:44:29.222
Every one of them was going to be pow, pow, pow, pow, pow.

00:44:30.646 --> 00:44:31.527
Pow pow Indian.

00:44:31.527 --> 00:44:45.402
No, no, no, Beef jerky Indian Okay okay, all right, get back to that album, and you know I can honestly say when that came out I actually bought the album.

00:44:45.402 --> 00:44:47.260
Or let me the cassette.

00:44:48.925 --> 00:44:49.206
Was it?

00:44:49.206 --> 00:44:53.797
See, when I heard it it was probably a cassette Also.

00:44:53.797 --> 00:45:01.141
Yeah, at 10 years old we had recorders then you could rent them at the library.

00:45:01.141 --> 00:45:01.682
It was weird.

00:45:02.574 --> 00:45:09.918
Being 13, going on 14, had a little paper route, so Right, me too, oh mowed lawns.

00:45:09.918 --> 00:45:10.724
You know stuff kids don't do anymore.

00:45:10.724 --> 00:45:12.356
Oh, me too On both lawns Stuff.

00:45:12.396 --> 00:45:13.561
kids don't do anymore.

00:45:13.561 --> 00:45:14.463
Oh, they don't, no.

00:45:14.463 --> 00:45:20.715
Well, because their parents drive around in a car that barely runs and they'll throw it in your car.

00:45:20.856 --> 00:45:24.503
Here's what I don't understand A lot of these parents we grew up with.

00:45:24.503 --> 00:45:27.201
Let's say, how did the kids get so effed up?

00:45:28.003 --> 00:45:30.802
Who knows, we didn't grow up that way Because their kids weren't that.

00:45:30.862 --> 00:45:32.146
No, we didn't grow up that way.

00:45:32.454 --> 00:45:33.478
No, so how did their kids?

00:45:33.960 --> 00:45:34.762
You know they didn't.

00:45:34.762 --> 00:45:35.726
How do you end up pampered?

00:45:35.726 --> 00:45:37.905
Anyway, we shouldn't go down that road.

00:45:37.905 --> 00:45:41.184
Whoops, yeah, let's stick to what we're having fun about.

00:45:45.099 --> 00:45:49.364
Almost turned into an animal Sometimes and, like you said, shit it comes out.

00:45:49.625 --> 00:45:49.864
Right.

00:45:49.864 --> 00:45:51.987
So what's your next song there, tom?

00:45:52.268 --> 00:45:57.097
Oh mine, yeah, let's see here, or album, whatever Well I have.

00:45:57.097 --> 00:46:00.166
Who remembers Jennifer Warnes?

00:46:01.375 --> 00:46:02.137
That's a chick from.

00:46:02.137 --> 00:46:03.764
I'm Having the Time of my Life on.

00:46:04.976 --> 00:46:05.460
It might be.

00:46:05.795 --> 00:46:07.478
The Patrick Swayze there movie.

00:46:07.478 --> 00:46:08.280
What the hell was it?

00:46:08.280 --> 00:46:08.780
Well, anyway.

00:46:08.800 --> 00:46:09.521
That Patrick Swayze there movie?

00:46:09.521 --> 00:46:09.983
What the hell was it?

00:46:09.983 --> 00:46:10.043
No?

00:46:10.103 --> 00:46:10.543
that was Jennifer Grey.

00:46:10.543 --> 00:46:13.748
No, no, not in the movie, the one that sang the song with that guy.

00:46:16.014 --> 00:46:16.677
I've had the time of the night.

00:46:16.677 --> 00:46:17.139
Oh, that one.

00:46:17.139 --> 00:46:18.001
I don't know.

00:46:18.001 --> 00:46:22.606
It could have been, but this is the right time of the night.

00:46:22.876 --> 00:46:24.101
Okay, I think it's the same lady.

00:46:24.534 --> 00:46:27.865
It's the right time of the night.

00:46:27.865 --> 00:46:52.289
I remember this song from back in the day because when my sister and her boyfriend at the time were getting married, this was one of those songs that they were going to use as a wedding song, and so it was played like 174 hours a day at my house, Good Lord man.

00:46:52.289 --> 00:46:55.123
So I remember this song and that's one of our—.

00:46:55.514 --> 00:46:59.465
That's how you take a song that you like to turn into a song that you hate.

00:46:59.795 --> 00:47:07.601
I don't want to hear it anymore, and that is a lot like the song Abracadabra, but that'll come later.

00:47:09.277 --> 00:47:10.882
We don't even have to mention that one.

00:47:10.882 --> 00:47:12.534
Yeah, let's just go on.

00:47:12.534 --> 00:47:14.262
Go on and hit a sore spot with your buddy.

00:47:14.262 --> 00:47:16.782
I guess we move on to my next one.

00:47:16.782 --> 00:47:17.583
Yeah, what's your next?

00:47:17.644 --> 00:47:18.677
one All right Again.

00:47:19.199 --> 00:47:22.557
Sorry, another album, fleetwood Mac.

00:47:22.557 --> 00:47:30.257
Rumors Talk about a drama album with a lot of drama, but every song kicks ass, every one of them.

00:47:30.257 --> 00:47:32.139
To me that's Fleetwood Mac's best album.

00:47:32.139 --> 00:47:33.802
People can argue that's fine.

00:47:33.802 --> 00:47:40.588
I'm not a big Fleetwood Mac fanatic so I like it, but I know that Rumors album kicks ass.

00:47:40.608 --> 00:47:42.311
It was a good one for you, really good.

00:47:45.195 --> 00:47:46.237
And again bought that album.

00:47:46.237 --> 00:47:48.440
I think I still have that album in my little record collection.

00:47:48.481 --> 00:47:49.422
I don't believe.

00:47:49.422 --> 00:47:52.086
Was that the one that Tusk was on?

00:47:52.086 --> 00:47:53.289
No, no, that came after Later.

00:47:53.496 --> 00:47:54.434
Oh, that came later on.

00:47:54.494 --> 00:48:00.742
We'll talk about that later, anyway, but yeah, I like Fleetwood Mac.

00:48:01.403 --> 00:48:04.099
But rumors, a lot of songs.

00:48:04.099 --> 00:48:05.905
There you go, you know what.

00:48:05.905 --> 00:48:13.268
And before we head out to our other music, I want to interrupt this to talk about our other stuff we wanted to discuss.

00:48:13.309 --> 00:48:17.583
Yep, bring some stuff in Different shit like movies that came out in 77.

00:48:17.583 --> 00:48:20.021
Yeah, yeah, give a little shout out to some of the movies.

00:48:20.021 --> 00:48:24.204
So I'll start off with number one Star Wars, episode IV.

00:48:24.204 --> 00:48:26.836
A New Hope George Lucas movie.

00:48:26.836 --> 00:48:34.429
Why it Matters changed the film industry forever, launched a massive franchise and introduced the world to lightsabers, the Force and Darth Vader.

00:48:34.429 --> 00:48:39.407
Box office over $775 million worldwide gross at the time.

00:48:39.896 --> 00:48:43.346
And what's really crazy to me, what's that?

00:48:43.346 --> 00:48:48.306
If you look it up, how much did that movie take to make Pennies?

00:48:48.306 --> 00:48:51.155
Probably Pennies on the dollar, not really sure, but that's something we make Pennies, probably Pennies on the dollar.

00:48:51.195 --> 00:48:55.777
Not really sure, but that's something we could actually look up, yeah we could look that up later.

00:48:56.121 --> 00:49:04.159
That's just crazy, because you know that that movie didn't cost that much to make, but it drug in.

00:49:04.159 --> 00:49:07.282
How many billions of dollars over the years?

00:49:07.282 --> 00:49:09.744
Right, right, what a franchise.

00:49:10.954 --> 00:49:13.063
Well, Tom, doing our little research.

00:49:13.063 --> 00:49:15.561
Because that's what we do To answer your question.

00:49:17.045 --> 00:49:19.181
Excuse me, I know it choked me up too.

00:49:20.275 --> 00:49:20.858
The production.

00:49:20.858 --> 00:49:23.481
The budget altogether approximately $11 million.

00:49:23.481 --> 00:49:24.958
The wild part.

00:49:24.958 --> 00:49:25.762
Here's the wild part.

00:49:25.762 --> 00:49:28.793
Initial budget approved by Fox around $8 million.

00:49:28.793 --> 00:49:32.159
Wow, final cost after overruns roughly $11 million.

00:49:32.159 --> 00:49:36.659
Lucas had to fight for every cent and the studio wasn't convinced it would do well.

00:49:36.659 --> 00:49:38.318
Oh, how wrong they were.

00:49:38.318 --> 00:49:42.385
And the payoff it earned over $775 million.

00:49:44.376 --> 00:49:45.521
Yep Chokes me up too.

00:49:46.697 --> 00:49:53.797
And over $1.5 billion when adjusted for re-releases and inflation, basically one of the best returns on investments in film history.

00:49:53.797 --> 00:49:58.882
Wow, lucas also kept merchandising rights and moved.

00:49:58.882 --> 00:50:05.146
That made him very rich and every kid on earth wanted a lightsaber and an R2-D2 lunchbox Of course they did.

00:50:05.146 --> 00:50:05.865
Holy crap.

00:50:05.865 --> 00:50:07.126
Well, that answers that man.

00:50:07.126 --> 00:50:08.268
That's pretty damn impressive.

00:50:08.288 --> 00:50:10.630
No doubt Because you've got to understand.

00:50:10.630 --> 00:50:18.981
These people are making movies for pennies, but when they put them out there.

00:50:19.001 --> 00:50:19.545
It's all about advertising.

00:50:19.545 --> 00:50:24.940
Well, now it just costs too much to make a damn movie Snow White there with what's a bunch of yeah we'll get into that.

00:50:25.476 --> 00:50:27.523
Talk about destroying your legacy Disney.

Yeah, what's red and has seven little dents.

00:50:31.385 --> 00:50:34.077
What's that?

00:50:34.077 --> 00:50:35.543
Snow White's cherry?

00:50:38.418 --> 00:50:39.242
Can we edit that?

00:50:40.289 --> 00:50:41.054
You don't have to.

00:50:41.255 --> 00:50:48.364
Okay, let's move on to the next movie, Tom Number two Close Encounters of the Third Kind, Great movie.

Yeah, we can do a little rant about disco Daniel said something about ranting about disco.

00:51:25.923 --> 00:51:26.766

00:51:26.766 --> 00:51:29.264
What are they doing with this big glass ball?

00:51:29.454 --> 00:51:31.242
Having a good time getting down.

00:51:31.242 --> 00:51:33.641

00:51:33.996 --> 00:51:35.079

There it is.

00:52:03.579 --> 00:52:05.563
Smokey and the Bandit great movie.

00:52:05.623 --> 00:52:06.523
Some bitches.

00:52:06.523 --> 00:52:10.009
Some was very smart.

All right, we got a bridge too far.

00:52:23.094 --> 00:52:24.963
Oh, John Wayne, wasn't it A race ahead?

00:52:25.434 --> 00:52:26.699
I have to admit I've seen that movie.

00:52:26.699 --> 00:52:27.081
What A race ahead.

00:52:27.081 --> 00:52:27.442
Oh, what was that?

00:52:27.442 --> 00:52:28.043
Very strange A race ahead.

00:52:28.063 --> 00:52:29.106
Why it matters, it's a cult classic that lost.

00:52:29.106 --> 00:52:29.869
I have to admit, I've seen that movie?

00:52:29.889 --> 00:52:30.532
What Eraserhead, oh, what was that?

00:52:30.532 --> 00:52:31.034
Very strange Eraserhead.

00:52:31.034 --> 00:52:34.405
Why it matters, it's a cult classic that lost Lynch's career.

00:52:34.405 --> 00:52:36.422
Surreal, disturbing and unforgettable.

00:52:36.422 --> 00:52:42.501
Then New York, new York, martin Scorsese, Right, and that was it for movies.

00:52:42.875 --> 00:52:45.318
Yeah, they didn't have too much going on back then.

00:52:45.659 --> 00:52:46.079
They didn't.

00:52:46.420 --> 00:52:47.280
No, not too much, they didn't no.

00:52:47.300 --> 00:52:47.822
Come on, Tom.

00:52:47.822 --> 00:52:49.423
A lot of the good movies came out then.

00:52:49.764 --> 00:52:50.105
Yeah.

00:52:51.106 --> 00:52:51.887
You want to.

00:52:51.987 --> 00:52:53.250
Godfather, you know, we're here.

00:52:53.309 --> 00:52:54.150
No, we're here.

00:52:54.150 --> 00:52:57.536
Let's just talk about some television quick, oh.

00:52:57.938 --> 00:52:58.701
I like television.

00:52:58.961 --> 00:53:00.480
Let's see you had Laverne and Shirley.

00:53:00.480 --> 00:53:02.679
Oh yeah, Spin-off of Happy Days.

00:53:02.940 --> 00:53:05.509
Oh, yeah, okay yeah.

00:53:10.974 --> 00:53:11.456
Yeah, happy days.

00:53:11.456 --> 00:53:12.018
There we go there.

00:53:12.018 --> 00:53:13.320
It was Three's Company.

00:53:13.320 --> 00:53:15.385
Oh yeah, jack, I gotta admit I liked them better with the ropers than Parley.

00:53:16.027 --> 00:53:16.989
Yeah yeah, parley was good.

00:53:18.114 --> 00:53:20.483
But you know, we know, it's Barney.

00:53:22.795 --> 00:53:25.101
Reminds me of a Dale Mandy episode.

00:53:25.202 --> 00:53:25.802
Oh, here we go.

00:53:25.802 --> 00:53:27.476
Okay, I got it real quick Okay.

00:53:27.956 --> 00:53:36.110
When Andy went over to his girlfriend's house and she had a long lost friend that came over.

00:53:36.110 --> 00:53:38.239
She's like well, what do you want me to do?

00:53:38.239 --> 00:53:40.324
He's like, well, I don't know, feed your hunger buzzer.

00:53:40.324 --> 00:53:46.806
And he got pissed off and he went over there and there old Barney was sitting at the courthouse.

00:53:46.806 --> 00:53:48.280
And he went over there.

00:53:48.280 --> 00:53:49.621
He said where's my magazine?

00:53:49.621 --> 00:53:50.759
He said I'm going home.

00:53:50.759 --> 00:53:52.518
He said I thought you had a date with Peg.

00:53:52.518 --> 00:53:54.518
He said I did, but I don't no more.

00:53:54.518 --> 00:53:55.764
Where's my magazine?

00:53:55.764 --> 00:53:57.619
You want to talk about it?

00:53:57.619 --> 00:53:59.047
No, I don't want to talk about it.

00:53:59.047 --> 00:54:01.621
I want my magazine so I can go home, read, be quiet.

00:54:01.621 --> 00:54:05.521
So he's like, yeah, she had somebody over there.

00:54:05.521 --> 00:54:14.382
You know what his name was Don.

00:54:14.382 --> 00:54:15.047
Can you imagine that, don?

00:54:15.047 --> 00:54:15.713
I thought that was kind of funny.

00:54:15.713 --> 00:54:16.034
His name is Don.

00:54:16.034 --> 00:54:17.880
Yeah, his name is Don.

00:54:17.880 --> 00:54:20.121
Yeah, that was funny.

00:54:20.916 --> 00:54:21.938
Oh, you got to understand.

00:54:21.938 --> 00:54:25.427
Tom has a lot of analogies that come from Andy.

00:54:25.427 --> 00:54:28.563
Anyways, 60 Minutes started.

00:54:28.563 --> 00:54:30.110
Charlie's Angels, the original Charlie's Angels yeah, 60 Minutes started.

00:54:30.110 --> 00:54:33.574
Charlie's Angels, the original Charlie's Angels yeah, wow.

00:54:43.394 --> 00:54:46.795
Well, when you said, jacqueline Smith, my Love Boat launched.

00:54:47.858 --> 00:54:48.519
Oh, here we go.

00:54:48.519 --> 00:54:49.422
There's that path.

00:54:49.422 --> 00:54:50.746
There it is, Tom.

00:54:50.746 --> 00:54:53.682

Really, and Tennessee Island.

00:54:58.242 --> 00:54:58.362
Oh.

00:54:58.724 --> 00:55:00.768
That was this year 77?

00:55:00.768 --> 00:55:01.590
77.

00:55:02.952 --> 00:55:04.474
Huh, oh, wait a minute.

00:55:04.474 --> 00:55:05.960
They continued tugging.

00:55:06.976 --> 00:55:07.677
Oh, I continued.

00:55:07.697 --> 00:55:08.980
No, no, Never never mind, never tugging.

00:55:08.980 --> 00:55:09.360
Oh, I continue.

00:55:09.400 --> 00:55:09.920
Never mind.

00:55:09.960 --> 00:55:10.983
Never mind, don't say it.

00:55:10.983 --> 00:55:13.789
Oh, hot strings, I forgot to add that part.

00:55:15.775 --> 00:55:18.018
The best part about a podcast no HR.

00:55:18.579 --> 00:55:19.201
No, there isn't.

00:55:19.201 --> 00:55:19.822
It's awesome.

00:55:19.822 --> 00:55:22.266
This is freaking awesome Go ahead.

00:55:22.266 --> 00:55:23.248
Anyways, that's it.

00:55:23.248 --> 00:55:29.617
That's some of the TV shows which I thought were pretty cool, pretty cool Laura.

00:55:29.617 --> 00:55:30.199
Ingalls man.

00:55:31.317 --> 00:55:34.541
A lot of kids lost their virginity to her in their mind.

00:55:35.335 --> 00:55:39.844
I like Mary better she couldn't see you, I know.

00:55:41.777 --> 00:55:43.021
Anyway, here we go again.

00:55:44.195 --> 00:55:46.521
Alright, let's move on back to our music.

00:55:46.521 --> 00:55:50.603
Back to our music, back in the universe.

00:55:52.800 --> 00:55:56.628
So I mean just to Back to our music, back to our music Back in the U.

00:55:56.628 --> 00:55:57.389
Oh, never mind.

00:55:57.389 --> 00:56:01.777
So I mean just to mention everything that, what really gets me about doing these music things.

00:56:01.777 --> 00:56:07.329
I'm finding that I have evolved toward harmonizing groups.

00:56:07.329 --> 00:56:10.492
That's a good sound, groups that have good harmonizing.

00:56:10.492 --> 00:56:19.978
Good sounds together and this Dave and Sugar group.

00:56:19.978 --> 00:56:24.679
I'm just it's weird because they have that sound.

00:56:24.960 --> 00:56:28.599
You mentioned this earlier to me and I was like what the hell are you talking about?

00:56:28.599 --> 00:56:30.318
Yeah, Never heard of them.

00:56:30.659 --> 00:56:32.264
Dave and Sugar have a lot of that.

00:56:32.264 --> 00:56:43.202
It's the harmonizing and Larry Gatlin and the Gatlin Brothers Love is just a game, or All the Gold in California.

00:56:43.202 --> 00:56:48.882
These things that you hear they're harmonizing, they're so good.

00:56:48.882 --> 00:56:52.125
I guess that's why I like the bluegrass music.

00:56:52.414 --> 00:56:56.626
That's part of what the Eagles charm is, too Exactly they harmonize.

00:56:57.315 --> 00:57:15.730
They have such a beautiful harmony together, all of them and Blackhawk, one of my favorite groups of all time they just harmonize, they just harmonize and I'm finding, through all this research that we're doing, that I evolved toward the groups that have the harmony.

00:57:15.730 --> 00:57:19.838
Okay, I get that.

00:57:19.838 --> 00:57:21.844
It's weird, it's kind of crazy.

00:57:21.884 --> 00:57:23.367
Nothing weird about it at all, tom.

00:57:23.367 --> 00:57:25.076
Nothing weird at all.

00:57:25.096 --> 00:57:27.943
Yeah listen, look up some of these groups that you don't know.

00:57:27.943 --> 00:57:37.545
Or if you do know them, they have even songs that I've never heard of and I class myself on oh, I know all those songs.

00:57:37.545 --> 00:57:39.903
You can't give me songs I've never heard.

00:57:39.903 --> 00:57:48.974
Well, if you would have gave me Elvis Presley's song Down Under, or whatever it was that came out this year, I would have been stuffed.

00:57:48.974 --> 00:57:50.681
I have no idea what that is.

00:57:50.681 --> 00:57:54.641
So I don't know everything about the music.

00:57:55.715 --> 00:57:56.418
None of us do.

00:57:56.579 --> 00:57:58.199
I'm humbled, just don't relate though.

00:57:58.199 --> 00:57:59.958
I'm humbled by the music.

00:58:00.780 --> 00:58:03.137
Alright, I'm going to move to mine now.

00:58:03.137 --> 00:58:06.842
Another shocker album, now this one.

00:58:06.842 --> 00:58:13.373
I heard songs, but I didn't actually receive the album until 78, when I was 15.

00:58:13.373 --> 00:58:19.686
Right, I remember I had a little party in my basement with my friends and everything, but anyways, meatloaf, bad Outta Hell.

00:58:19.686 --> 00:58:24.164
Oh man, that whole album, two Outta Three Ain't Bad.

00:58:24.164 --> 00:58:28.269
Paradise by the Dashboard Light, One of the very best songs in the world.

00:58:28.289 --> 00:58:30.498
Two Outta Three man, two Outta Three man.

00:58:30.518 --> 00:58:30.900
Two out of three.

00:58:30.900 --> 00:58:32.085
That's a great song.

00:58:32.085 --> 00:58:36.025
But every emotion on that pretty much all songs go through.

00:58:36.025 --> 00:58:37.369
All these different Bad Outta Hell.

00:58:37.369 --> 00:58:38.431
That one's a good song.

00:58:38.431 --> 00:58:39.733
Oh yeah, motorcycle sound.

00:58:39.733 --> 00:58:48.954
I know it seems like I'm being weak and not picking songs, but it's hard to watch that album and pick one song that I like.

00:58:48.954 --> 00:58:52.760
Paradise by the Dashboard is a popular song.

00:58:52.760 --> 00:58:54.527
Anybody can say that.

00:58:54.527 --> 00:59:00.628
But that whole album the previous two I mentioned Every song on there pretty much rocks.

00:59:00.628 --> 00:59:07.789
People can disagree, that's fine, but this is by my picks.

00:59:08.204 --> 00:59:09.798
See, it's just exactly like that.

00:59:09.960 --> 00:59:11.304
And that album to this day.

00:59:11.304 --> 00:59:13.914
If I listen to any of those songs, it brings back memories.

00:59:13.914 --> 00:59:23.940
Every album, all kinds of memories, every song, every song on the album, yeah, no matter how I was feeling at that time, what I was going through at that time, whatever, that's one of those albums.

00:59:24.621 --> 00:59:27.786
Medicine, yeah, music, it's medicine.

00:59:27.786 --> 00:59:28.927
Music is awesome, man.

00:59:28.927 --> 00:59:31.891
What would we do without it Be?

00:59:31.951 --> 00:59:32.271
fucked.

00:59:32.271 --> 00:59:33.492
Thank God for music.

00:59:33.492 --> 00:59:36.695
Yes, yes, don't get me wrong people.

00:59:40.199 --> 00:59:42.940
I like pretty much all calculus and the classical music, but this is the gong we were talking the other day yesterday.

00:59:42.940 --> 00:59:47.731
We like Celtic music, celtic, celtic, yeah, celtic.

00:59:47.800 --> 00:59:47.981
Celtic.

00:59:47.981 --> 00:59:52.643
I used to say that too, and it's like no, not the Boston Celtic, it's Celtic.

00:59:52.643 --> 00:59:57.126
But I like that, especially when it's mixed in with like rock music Right.

00:59:57.126 --> 00:59:58.985
They just go together.

00:59:58.985 --> 00:59:59.407
So often.

00:59:59.427 --> 01:00:02.628
Yes, they do have a lot of good stuff together too.

01:00:02.628 --> 01:00:07.407
There's bands out there that mix that.

01:00:07.467 --> 01:00:10.753
Well, nightwish is a band, yeah, yeah, yeah, it's not what you were telling me about.

01:00:10.753 --> 01:00:12.000
I think there's a lot of bands like that.

01:00:12.179 --> 01:00:15.643
Yes, we had already talked about Nightwish before you remember hearing that song too.

01:00:15.764 --> 01:00:16.708
Last of the Mohicans.

01:00:16.708 --> 01:00:26.550
I've seen some girl do it on a flute and I was blown away by it, but I remember us talking about the group you just talked about.

01:00:26.550 --> 01:00:27.452
Nightwish.

01:00:27.452 --> 01:00:30.344
Nightwish you just talked about Nightwish.

01:00:30.344 --> 01:00:31.391
Nightwish, we had mentioned those guys before.

01:00:31.391 --> 01:00:32.980
Oh yeah, and I read one of our podcasts about concerts and stuff.

01:00:33.300 --> 01:00:34.726
Yeah, I remember those guys.

01:00:34.726 --> 01:00:35.869
You got another one there, tom.

01:00:35.869 --> 01:00:39.875
I don't have another one, except for the Sunflower.

01:00:39.894 --> 01:00:40.016
Song.

01:00:40.016 --> 01:00:40.820
Anything you want to talk about.

01:00:41.820 --> 01:00:46.623
The Sunflower Song was Glenn Campbell's Sunflower Good Morning.

01:00:46.722 --> 01:00:51.231
Right, right, I said I don remember the lyrics, but I could think of the music in my head.

01:00:51.813 --> 01:00:54.648
And that's that I just wanted to say a minute.

01:00:54.648 --> 01:01:04.085
That's why I like doing this stuff, because that song, I hadn't thought about that song probably for 45 years and it just popped up.

01:01:04.085 --> 01:01:10.567
And then all of a sudden on this radio thing I'm looking up doing some research, bam, I'm like, wait a minute.

01:01:10.567 --> 01:01:11.786
I remember that song.

01:01:11.786 --> 01:01:15.525
I loved that song when I was little, right, that's how it works out.

01:01:17.280 --> 01:01:21.766
But yeah, I had no idea, it was Glen Campbell and I like Glen Campbell as much as I do.

01:01:21.766 --> 01:01:26.146
But there you go, and Charlie Pryde, let's give a shout out to Charlie Pryde.

01:01:26.387 --> 01:01:26.969
Absolutely.

01:01:28.101 --> 01:01:34.152
Now I know who that is, tom yeah and he had a couple in this year too, in 77.

01:01:34.152 --> 01:01:40.210
Okay, one of them I don't remember, recall it right now, but I do remember he was there.

01:01:40.210 --> 01:01:41.012
That's awesome then.

01:01:41.213 --> 01:01:42.320
Yeah, all right.

01:01:42.320 --> 01:01:56.204
Well, of course I'm greedy, obviously if it looks that way, because I just name off these two quick no, go ahead Again albums Styx, grand Illusion, another album that kind of blew me away with the sound.

01:01:56.204 --> 01:01:58.306
I mean Come Sail Away.

01:01:58.306 --> 01:02:01.628
It was like, if you listen to that, pretty much baked.

01:02:01.628 --> 01:02:02.628
It was like a journey.

01:02:03.789 --> 01:02:06.771
I have a story that I think I told.

01:02:06.771 --> 01:02:10.373
Wait a minute, I do believe I told this story.

01:02:11.114 --> 01:02:14.996
I think so too About your high school, the eighth grade graduation song.

01:02:15.016 --> 01:02:15.717
Oh, that's what it was.

01:02:15.717 --> 01:02:19.009
Yeah, yeah, Because we brought up one song and you said which one would you like?

01:02:19.159 --> 01:02:20.532
I said, well, I'm going to go with Come Sail Away.

01:02:20.532 --> 01:02:28.750
That's what it was, it was James Time in a Bottle, if I could spend time in the park.

01:02:28.750 --> 01:02:30.472
That was the one If.

01:02:30.472 --> 01:02:36.219
I could spend time in the park, okay, I thought it was the other one, but anyways, we've got a second singer.

01:02:37.148 --> 01:02:41.023
I thought it was one of his other ones, but I do remember you bringing that up Alright Quickly.

01:02:41.023 --> 01:02:45.528
Foreigner, their first album, that album rocked too.

01:02:45.528 --> 01:02:56.146
And Tom, I'm going to quickly go to this because you'll appreciate this you were young enough and, I admit, as much as I was getting into rock, I still listen to these guys.

01:02:56.146 --> 01:03:01.911
Bay City Rollers they came out with an album called it's a Game.

01:03:01.911 --> 01:03:04.608
Yes, folks, I do have that album too.

01:03:04.608 --> 01:03:09.750
Not going to lie, these are my Growing pains.

01:03:09.750 --> 01:03:10.963
It's just songs.

01:03:11.023 --> 01:03:18.666
I like man, you know they had that you Made Me Believe in Magic and the Way I Feel Tonight.

01:03:18.666 --> 01:03:23.425
But anyways, I figured I'd bring up the Basity Rollers, because we don't give them enough love.

01:03:23.626 --> 01:03:24.369
Yeah, we don't.

01:03:24.369 --> 01:03:29.344
I mean, that's part of our youth, a soundtrack of our youth also, everybody's got to know the Bas City.

01:03:29.344 --> 01:03:38.248
Rollers yeah, corny as may be, but hey, I like them, I'm not denying it, I'm not going to lie, and while you, have Bay City Rollers right there.

01:03:38.248 --> 01:03:39.686
Girls like them, I like them.

01:03:39.860 --> 01:03:43.389
I would like to just slip in a little two or three minutes, Whoa whoa, whoa.

01:03:43.409 --> 01:03:44.231
What are we slipping in?

01:03:44.231 --> 01:03:46.487
We're not slipping in nothing in here.

01:03:46.507 --> 01:03:48.469
A in nothing in here, a two or three minute retract.

01:03:48.550 --> 01:03:50.213
No, you said that last time.

01:03:52.034 --> 01:03:53.076
This is much better.

01:03:53.780 --> 01:03:55.440
You said that last time too, the Bay.

01:03:55.460 --> 01:03:55.963
City Rollers.

01:03:55.963 --> 01:04:00.306
I was introduced to them by a friend of mine.

01:04:01.201 --> 01:04:02.445
I guess we're done with our music.

01:04:02.445 --> 01:04:04.739
We could go on forever about stuff.

01:04:04.981 --> 01:04:07.168
The music just went on and on, and on.

01:04:07.840 --> 01:04:08.965
Did I get a mention, Teddy?

01:04:08.965 --> 01:04:10.806
Was there any weird toys in that time?

01:04:10.806 --> 01:04:16.688
I believe there was and I believe I have something for that.

01:04:18.047 --> 01:04:20.706
The toys yeah, oh, you always get to bring up toys.

01:04:20.726 --> 01:04:25.610
You know what, though, Tom One thing we forgot to bring up One-hit wonders.

01:04:26.581 --> 01:04:28.423
There were some one-hit wonders.

01:04:28.423 --> 01:04:29.184
Yeah, there were.

01:04:34.094 --> 01:04:34.534
Yeah.

01:04:35.260 --> 01:04:37.168
Undercover Angel Alan O'Day.

01:04:38.201 --> 01:04:40.266
Who in the world is Alan O'Day?

01:04:40.266 --> 01:04:41.331
Listen, children.

01:04:41.800 --> 01:04:43.407
He hit number one, though damn it.

01:04:43.820 --> 01:04:44.844
Yeah, listen, children.

01:04:44.844 --> 01:04:47.039
Don't ever think you can't do anything.

01:04:47.039 --> 01:04:49.748
This guy is nothing but this one song.

01:04:50.400 --> 01:04:50.882
Oh wow.

01:04:50.882 --> 01:04:53.367
Well, you know it's kind of sad because he wrote hits for others.

01:04:53.367 --> 01:04:55.728
But I always thought this one has a solo on it.

01:04:55.728 --> 01:04:56.766
Here we go.

01:04:56.766 --> 01:04:59.666
Afternoon Delight Still a vocal band.

01:05:01.451 --> 01:05:02.884
Yeah, I can't say stuff.

01:05:02.884 --> 01:05:03.867
Oh wait a minute.

01:05:04.139 --> 01:05:05.226
Wait a minute, Little note here.

01:05:05.226 --> 01:05:07.905
Technically released in 76, but peaked in 77.

01:05:07.905 --> 01:05:08.106
It peaked.

01:05:08.106 --> 01:05:09.440
Technically released in 76, but peaked in 77.

01:05:09.440 --> 01:05:11.443
It peaked, it peaked.

01:05:11.443 --> 01:05:13.467
It's soft, suggestive and iconic.

01:05:13.467 --> 01:05:16.233
Won a Grammy and then radio silence.

01:05:16.233 --> 01:05:18.358
Soft and suggestive.

01:05:18.378 --> 01:05:21.987
Yeah, I have something soft and suggestive.

01:05:22.027 --> 01:05:23.692
Yeah, okay, go ahead.

01:05:23.692 --> 01:05:26.798
What you Gonna Do by Pablo Cruz, oh, what you gonna do?

01:05:26.798 --> 01:05:29.485
A sunny yacht rock style song that hit number six.

01:05:29.485 --> 01:05:32.612
But despite other minor hits, they never cracked the top ten.

01:05:32.612 --> 01:05:38.048
Pablo Cruz had some good songs, though they may not have been number one, but they had some good songs.

01:05:38.119 --> 01:05:40.369
They had to have because I know who they are.

01:05:40.369 --> 01:05:41.936
That's the key.

01:05:41.936 --> 01:05:42.440
Well, there you go.

01:05:42.559 --> 01:05:43.545
You've heard of them before.

01:05:43.545 --> 01:05:46.626
Here we go with Hutch again.

01:05:46.626 --> 01:05:47.704
Don't give up on us.

01:05:47.704 --> 01:05:50.706
David Soul, Yep, that Hutch from Starsky.

01:05:50.706 --> 01:05:52.525
And Hutch Never even dreamed it.

01:05:52.525 --> 01:05:56.630
This heartfelt ballad hit number one, and then he was back to crime fighting on TV.

01:05:57.039 --> 01:05:59.632
I was this many days old when I realized that.

01:06:00.376 --> 01:06:01.139
I knew that because I heard.

01:06:01.681 --> 01:06:03.387
Don't give up on us, baby.

01:06:03.387 --> 01:06:06.407
You can be a star Anyway.

01:06:08.681 --> 01:06:10.168
Different lyrics, but you get the melody.

01:06:10.168 --> 01:06:14.168
Ariel, you remember that one.

01:06:14.168 --> 01:06:16.568
I took her home with me.

01:06:16.900 --> 01:06:21.469
We watched TV a necuna cello and some guy going steady.

01:06:22.927 --> 01:06:26.326
I started fooling around with the vertical.

01:06:26.326 --> 01:06:29.699
We got the munchies and we made some spaghetti.

01:06:29.699 --> 01:06:30.480
Quirky, nerdy love song that climbed into the vertical hole.

01:06:30.480 --> 01:06:31.282
We got the munchies and we made some spaghetti.

01:06:31.282 --> 01:06:37.487
Is this a quirky, nerdy love song that climbed into the top 30 cult classic but he never charted again.

01:06:37.487 --> 01:06:42.202
All right, tom, here it is the Telephone man by Barry Wilson.

01:06:42.202 --> 01:06:47.942
Oh I, yeah, yeah, and then my fingers did the walking on the telephone man.

01:06:47.961 --> 01:06:54.827
Yeah, because he got it in the bathroom and he got it in the hall and he got it in the hall and he got it in the kitchen and he got it in the wall.

01:06:56.782 --> 01:06:59.860
Pure novelty song full of innuendo and 70s cheek.

01:06:59.860 --> 01:07:03.347
Yeah, got to number 18, but she remained a one-hit story.

01:07:03.760 --> 01:07:07.306
Wow, yeah, now don't never bring that chick around here again.

01:07:07.579 --> 01:07:09.648
I do like Smoke from a Distant Fire.

01:07:09.800 --> 01:07:14.929
Sanford Townsend, Band you rise from the smoke of a distant fire.

01:07:15.159 --> 01:07:16.302
That's a great song.

01:07:16.302 --> 01:07:22.103
Yes, it was a good song, this is a really original huh Float On by the Floaters.

01:07:22.585 --> 01:07:23.088
Float On.

01:07:24.099 --> 01:07:25.246
What's your song Floaters?

01:07:25.246 --> 01:07:26.041
Float On.

01:07:26.161 --> 01:07:29.612
Yeah, we're all floaters, you idiot.

01:07:29.980 --> 01:07:33.324
Here's one that'll trick you Magic man Heart.

01:07:33.324 --> 01:07:38.811
Wait, heart wasn't a one-hit wonder, but in 77, the song was their first big one.

01:07:38.811 --> 01:07:43.050
Just making sure you're paying attention, I saw that I go no.

01:07:43.050 --> 01:07:48.112
And then, right Time of the Night, jennifer Warnes it's that song.

01:07:48.251 --> 01:07:50.304
Yep, see, I had that on my list.

01:07:50.384 --> 01:07:51.427
Yay me yes you did.

01:07:52.068 --> 01:07:52.710
One hit wonder.

01:07:52.710 --> 01:07:53.833
One hit wonder.

01:07:53.833 --> 01:07:58.106
But I remembered the song you do remember the songs.

01:07:59.099 --> 01:08:04.824
And quickly let's give a little shout out to some of these toys from Star Wars again from Sabres last year.

01:08:04.945 --> 01:08:06.860
Oh my goodness, Micronauts, micronauts.

01:08:06.860 --> 01:08:10.027
Wait a minute, uncle Jim's cabin ain't on his one, is it?

01:08:10.510 --> 01:08:11.733
I haven't seen that yet.

01:08:11.733 --> 01:08:13.447
Stretch Armstrong on it again.

01:08:13.447 --> 01:08:17.689
Oh, Mattel's electronic football, oh yeah.

01:08:21.542 --> 01:08:22.902
I remember, why aren't?

01:08:22.921 --> 01:08:23.966
they going after him.

01:08:24.341 --> 01:08:30.319
And everybody's garage has one of those that was in a box that was eat up by damn time.

01:08:30.319 --> 01:08:31.287
Something would have to be.

01:08:31.287 --> 01:08:32.457
You can pull it out, I get this man.

01:08:32.899 --> 01:08:34.444
We'll put this for a football.

01:08:34.987 --> 01:08:35.890
Disintegrated.

01:08:36.140 --> 01:08:37.445
Slinky, still going strong.

01:08:37.445 --> 01:08:40.529
The metal coil from the 40s was still a top seller in the 70s.

01:08:40.548 --> 01:08:41.070
Heck yeah.

01:08:41.520 --> 01:08:45.511
All right, you got Light, bright, still Evil, knievel again.

01:08:45.511 --> 01:08:47.961
Damn, I wish I had one of those when I was a kid man doing that.

01:08:47.961 --> 01:08:48.762
I had one of those when I was a kid.

01:08:48.762 --> 01:08:51.712
Fisher Price Little People play sets Rebels again.

01:08:51.712 --> 01:08:54.222
Wait a minute and Simon from Milton Brown.

01:08:54.363 --> 01:08:57.645
Surely we didn't have a Little People play set.

01:08:57.645 --> 01:09:04.542
No, that's why half the people in America are freaking, messed up now probably.

01:09:04.563 --> 01:09:07.525
Because Little People, little People did it.

01:09:08.082 --> 01:09:09.828
Is that a Little People play set?

01:09:09.828 --> 01:09:10.717
No, I'm playing with Little People.

01:09:10.717 --> 01:09:10.710
No, but it's for the Little People, did it?

01:09:10.710 --> 01:09:11.204
Is that a Little People play set?

01:09:11.123 --> 01:09:11.360
No, I'm playing with Little People?

01:09:11.360 --> 01:09:12.948
No, but it's for the Little People.

01:09:14.103 --> 01:09:14.886
Oh, oh, oh.

01:09:15.380 --> 01:09:18.212
Not Little Little People, not midgets, oh Little.

01:09:18.293 --> 01:09:18.456
People.

01:09:19.439 --> 01:09:20.462
Oh yeah, Dwarves.

01:09:22.186 --> 01:09:24.872
Yeah, fairies.

01:09:25.760 --> 01:09:26.845
Horizontally stunted.

01:09:27.680 --> 01:09:29.609
Oh, yeah, yeah, Is that better.

01:09:29.609 --> 01:09:31.407
Yeah, because I dated one one time.

01:09:31.546 --> 01:09:31.929
Okay.

01:09:32.319 --> 01:09:37.011
And she was going to sue the city, did she?

01:09:37.011 --> 01:09:40.829
Yeah, well, they built the sidewalk too close to her ass.

01:09:40.829 --> 01:09:42.824
Oh, that sounds sad, tom.

01:09:42.885 --> 01:09:43.427
It was sad.

01:09:43.427 --> 01:09:47.029
So on that note, tom, I think we're going to end this podcast for this week.

01:09:47.029 --> 01:09:50.096
Really yeah, I think we're going to end it now, bud.

01:09:50.096 --> 01:09:50.998
Podcast for this week.

01:09:50.998 --> 01:09:50.260
Really yeah, I think we're going to end it now, bud.

01:09:50.260 --> 01:09:53.046
I think, before you go too far the other way.

01:09:53.600 --> 01:09:54.644
I was the other way once.

01:09:54.663 --> 01:09:55.447
That's alright.

01:09:55.447 --> 01:09:59.864
Anyways, folks, we want you to listen to us on all our sites.

01:09:59.864 --> 01:10:06.167
Let's see Amazon, iheart, deezer, deepcastfm, buzzsprout.

01:10:06.167 --> 01:10:11.328
Don't forget our website, mtalp5.com.

01:10:11.328 --> 01:10:13.081
Check that out, please.

01:10:13.081 --> 01:10:13.462
Everybody.

01:10:13.462 --> 01:10:14.206
Go to that site.

01:10:14.206 --> 01:10:16.327
But hey, we're on all different platforms.

01:10:16.327 --> 01:10:20.751
Daniel will probably fill you in at the end anyways, because sometimes we're idiots and forget shit.

01:10:20.751 --> 01:10:24.600
But I thought any last comments there, tom Well.

01:10:24.640 --> 01:10:30.675
I'd just like to invite everybody to tune in to next time when we talk about 1978.

01:10:30.675 --> 01:10:31.457
Yes, this is correct.

01:10:32.020 --> 01:10:34.006
And when we come back it's getting better.

01:10:34.006 --> 01:10:36.184
I mean not that these songs are bad.

01:10:36.224 --> 01:10:37.087
That's not what I mean.

01:10:37.127 --> 01:10:42.011
God, no, now we're getting in songs that well, especially for me each, each week.

01:10:42.199 --> 01:10:44.408
It gets better and better and better as we go on.

01:10:44.408 --> 01:10:47.506
But, yeah, tune in and make sure you listen to that.

01:10:47.506 --> 01:10:51.873
And, as always, I'd like to thank God for the gift of Gab.

01:10:52.421 --> 01:10:54.826
All right, tom, and that note.

01:10:54.826 --> 01:10:56.029
Everyone take care.

01:10:56.029 --> 01:10:58.333
God bless and later See ya.

01:11:00.501 --> 01:11:02.265
Well, folks, you've done it again.

01:11:02.265 --> 01:11:24.492
You survived another episode of the MT Alternative Podcast hosted by Mike and Tom, the undisputed kings of half-remembered facts and full-blown tangents.

01:11:24.492 --> 01:11:25.832
Thank you, else.

01:11:25.832 --> 01:11:28.854
Can I subject myself to this weekly carnival of chaos?

01:11:28.854 --> 01:11:33.658
You're in luck or not, depending on your taste in audio pain.

01:11:34.600 --> 01:12:01.835
You can find the MT Alternative Podcast on Spotify, apple Podcasts, iheartradio, google Podcasts, audible, amazon Music, deezer FM, deepcast FM, pocket Casts, stitcher, buzzsprout and, of course, on the mothership itself, at mentaltpodcom, because nothing says professional operation like a site that still has a coming soon page for merch since 2022.

01:12:01.835 --> 01:12:11.512
And next week, buckle up, because Mike and Tom are rolling into 1978, the year of grease, glitter and gas shortages.

01:12:11.512 --> 01:12:13.296
Will they stay on topic?

01:12:13.296 --> 01:12:15.484
Will Tom bring up his perm again?

01:12:15.484 --> 01:12:18.329
Will Mike cry over a Bee Gees track?

01:12:18.329 --> 01:12:20.012
Only time will tell.

01:12:20.012 --> 01:12:26.792
I'm Daniel, your presenter and emotional support human, reminding you to tune in or don't.

01:12:26.792 --> 01:12:40.081
I'm not your mum, but if you do, bring snacks and low expectations, see you next week on the MT Alternative Podcast, where history and nonsense hold hands and skip into oblivion.

01:12:40.081 --> 01:13:05.350
Thank you.
