Okay yeah it's right on the lake Uh huh and so it is slowly sinking Huh Yeah I never heard that Yeah remember when we grew up and everybody thought we were gonna be underwater by now? They still keep saying it Yeah Big one Remember Superman the Superman movie from like the 70s or 80s when uh with Gene Hackman as Lex Luthor? Oh yeah And uh his plan was to he bought up a bunch of uh Nevada desert sort of wasteland area just like out in the middle of the desert he just bought a shitload of land and wanted to detonate a thermonuclear device on the fault line On the San Andreas fault to sink yeah So all of a sudden now and then California would fall in the ocean and all of a sudden he just has miles and miles of beachfront property Yeah Genius Yeah Uh huh Here's why I knew that Batman could kill Superman right? How's that? Um what's what's Batman's big thing about against Superman like like Superman's got these like alien natural or alien supernatural sort of powers right? Batman doesn't Batman's just a really smart dude who tries really hard and he's got a bunch of money to buy some cool shit Gadgets yeah Yeah um so a lot of people would say well there's no comparison cause Superman's got the uh you know the heat vision and all that Uh huh But who's Superman's biggest enemy? Who is his biggest enemy? Lex Luthor right? Okay Super smart dude with a lot of money who buys a lot of shit So yeah I always knew that uh Batman could give Superman a run for his money right? Just buy a bunch of kryptonite Uh huh Yeah Anyway these type of topics and more will be returned to after we're gonna play a little bit more music I got uh let's see next up I got Jill Scott from her latest record Woman Can't wait is the name of the tune that we're gonna hear Woman this really is a really good song Yeah I think it's gonna be a good song Yeah I think it's gonna be a good song Yeah Yeah Yeah Yeah Yeah Yeah Yeah Yeah Yeah Yeah Yeah Yeah Yeah Yeah Yeah Yeah Yeah Yeah Yeah Yeah Yeah Yeah Yeah Yeah Yeah Yeah Yeah Yeah Yeah Yeah Yeah Yeah Yeah Yeah Yeah Yeah Yeah Yeah Yeah Yeah I got something on my back that I need to get it off, baby The world's been nuts Just the other day I had to reprimand a grown-up Who am I to act this way?

It's Your Touch. It's the way you bring love. And I can't explain why I'm falling for this feeling. It's your touch. It's the way you bring love. And I can't explain what you've done to me. And I guess that you're wondering what I'm doing for you. And I guess that I'm wondering quite the same thing. Is it because I'm here that you're looking for someone else? If you are your own, what would you do? Oh, it's your touch. It's your touch. It's the way you bring love. And I can't explain why I'm falling for this feeling. It's your touch. It's the way you bring love. It's the way you bring love. It's the way you bring love. And I can't explain why I'm falling for this feeling. It's your touch. It's the way you bring love. It's your touch. It's the way you bring love. It's the way you bring love. I can't explain what you've done to me. No, I can't explain what you've done to me. No, I can't explain what you've done to me. No, I can't explain what you've done to me. No, I can't explain what you've done to me. No, I can't explain what you've done to me. No, I can't explain what you've done to me. No, I can't explain what you've done to me. No, I can't explain what you've done to me. Oh, baby. I'm gonna tell you more. If I can't have you on my own. I'd rather be lonely. And all alone. I'd rather keep thinking the way that I do. Cause all I do is think about you. All I do is think about you. Start off the set. Here we are. Start off the set with Jill Scott. Can't wait. It was the name of the tune from her latest LP, Woman. Followed that up by Odessa featuring Little Dragon. I love that tune. It's called Light. They're playing in LA too soon. Oh, a couple shows mid-December at the Shrine. And right after that we heard Black Ghosts. It's Your Touch from the Black Ghosts record out 2008. UK duo, Black Ghosts, out on the Southern Fried Records label. And then the last tune we heard was Tammy Terrell, All I Do Is Think About You. Not sure when that originally came out. Um, loved ones, you know Tammy Terrell from her many duets with, uh, she's best known for her duets with Marvin Gaye. Uh, left the world too soon. She left the world too soon. She died at an early age. Um, great artist in her own right. So most people know her from the duets, but I recommend, uh, if you haven't already, explore all the stuff under her name. And that brings us to the end of the show. That brings us up to, uh, present time. Um, this Saturday is a pretty cool event. We're put on by our good friends over at Exodus Events. Uh, I'm gonna try to pronounce this name right. Tatu-hey. Tatu-hey. I don't know the name. T-A-T-U-J-E. Tatu-hey. What kind of name is it? It's a tattoo, a multicultural tattoo festival. It's, uh, uh, it's hosted by, uh, Danny Trujillo. And it's over at Exodus. It's over at the Plaza de la Raza this Saturday, September 12th at the Plaza de la Raza over there, uh, on the Nista Ley at, uh, Lincoln Park there. Does it have an A in it? Uh, let me see. What's the spelling? T-A-T-U-H. Cause that's- T-A-T-U-A-H-E. That's the Spanish word for tattoo. Yeah. But am I saying it correctly? Tatu-hey. Tatu-ah-hey. Tatu-ah-hey. That's it. You did it. That's perfect. Tatu-ah-hey. Yeah. Anyway, like I said, that's put over. The Exodus events. Uh, they don't, they don't fuck around man. They always have good shows. But they had that, uh, multicultural sort of a low rider show a few weeks ago. Anyway, like I said, this one's hosted by a Danny Trujillo and as a curated art show. Pinup models. It's going to be a good one. And this one isn't the usual car show. Pinup fair. That is a little boring to me cause it's just like costume shop stuff. This is a little bit more like neighborhood. culture a little bit more like streets of los angeles local flair yeah anyway and lots of tattoos yeah check it out it's 20 bucks and they got uh the usual you know they got some food and drinks and stuff like that it's at the plaza de la raza which is a very beautiful area over there in east la for um for more information go ahead and check out exodus events.org yeah there's some good photos about the event too including uh danny getting a tattooed and putting on the mean mug face of course and uh the streets are hot man sure yes we're in the midst of a long hot summer but all the ladies are wearing all their fine ass summer shit right there so it's hard to complain right and uh i like getting out there i like stomping around in downtown and echo park and long beach and stuff like that i like hoofing it in the heart of the city hot weather and it sucks a little bit because it's super humid but um but uh man everybody's out and everybody's sort of reduced down to human level and i kind of dig it yeah the nighttime feels nice it's hot in the day but cruising around at night feels nice yeah and the sun's going down about seven o'clock nowadays too yeah so it's pretty cool probably my only thing i don't dig then about the weather is uh when i sweat when my ears get sweaty like everything else sweaty is fine feet armpits whatever ears bother me i don't know why that's that's my one area that uh i don't i don't like uh perspiry yeah yeah uh loved ones if you want to hear more about that kind of talk uh you can always email me by the way you can always email the show at neighborhood love radio with your questions and sweaty ears about sweaty ears and other stuff uh neighborhood love radio at gmail.com once again loved ones neighborhood love radio at gmail.com and uh william what do these buttons do here can i press one of these sound effects i there's always loved ones there's always these buttons here at neighborhood or at skid row studios and for some of the comedy shows i can't believe you've never pressed them no i've all right i'm gonna press one of these buttons yeah man and see what happens a hendrix like guitar solo no oh nothing no sound oh man i was pressing sexy crowd cheer let's try this other one maybe it's got to be connected somehow anything i could do switch no sound effects no sound effects on neighborhood love radio sorry loved ones we'll try to write that up for you later but that's fine that was an unplanned project i was looking forward to that though to be honest yeah look forward to this uh upcoming playlist here when i got queued up here for uh uh uh deja vu from brazil you know uh dj ava yeah yeah yeah yeah i'm gonna follow it up with uh oh yeah yeah well he started he went on through but yeah starting in the 70s i'm gonna follow it up with uh some bobby mcfarren yeah don't worry kick it enjoy javani!!! . . . . .
