And I want you to maybe next time when we call to order a pizza that maybe you might want to be a little bit more pleasant to people and not be hanging up on them and then with an attitude after. Hey, all the customers down pleasant to talk to, okay? I mean, I don't know what's wrong with you. What's the name of the man? I'm a manager, so I could call and tell her. Her name is G? Yeah. What is that? Is she like G? Like that's her real name? Yeah. Are you bullshitting me or what? I'm telling you what her name is. Why you got to keep going on with it? What's her name? What's her name, full name? G-U. G-U? You're fucking with me, man. See, how can I even trust you? You don't got to trust me. I don't care about that, bro. Maybe you don't know what you're doing. I know what I'm doing, man. Hey, do you want to make the order or not, bro? I'm going to hang up. I'm honestly going to hang up this time if you don't want to make the order. It's real busy. Hey, man. I just want to, you know, fucking. You can tell I'm lonely, right? I want to have a conversation with you, man. Dude, I ain't got that much time right now. I got other lines on hold. Come on, dog. If you want to have a conversation, I could call you some other time. That's not a problem. Oh, why? Because then what? Then you're going to start threatening me now that you're not at Far Cry's Pizza. I don't threaten people over at Pizza. You're going to be like. This is what you're going to be like when you call me later. Hey, fool. I'm off work now. Why don't you come and meet me over here at the Echo Park Lake, fool? I'm here at work. I'm doing my job, man. I'm telling you. Do you want to make the order or what? What's going on? Oh, man. I'll call you back, man. Do you want me to put the order in, though, or no? Nah.

Woo! We'll do it live. Okay. Broadcasting from downtown Los Angeles. We'll do it live! Fuck! It's the More Music Radio Pod. Do it live! I'll write it and we'll do it live! On skidrow.la Fucking thing sucks! In five, four, three... Hey, what's going on everybody? It's the More Music Radio Pod on skidrow.la We're up here at Skid Row Studios and we're having another party. We are having another party. Just me, Dan, and Jeremy tonight. We don't have any guests and we broke our on-time streak. Or I broke the on-time streak again tonight. It was like three weeks in a row. That was three weeks in a row. Yeah. Hey, baby steps, man. Officially a streak. Three is officially a streak. That's true, man. But it's good that... It's good that we're here. Like I said, there wasn't... We don't have a guest tonight, so I'm trying to... So basically he had no one to be on-time for. Yeah. Exactly. Maybe that's what it was, huh? Yeah. It sucks when there's guests and I'm still not on-time, though, you know? But yeah, man. Well, if they were better guests, we'd be more on-time. That's more their fault. It's not really us. I don't know, man. I'm just having panic attacks, man. And to be honest, that's the reason why I was... That's the reason why I'm... I'm late most of the time, you know? Remember when you were talking to me about it and you're like, man, you're late, you got to be on-time and all that stuff. And I'm like, man, I really want to, you know? It's like... But it's kind of embarrassing to tell people that you're not able to leave a place that you're at because you're having to freak out. You know what I mean? Well, you had something happen today, right? Yeah, man. Like I have this anxiety problem like a lot of people do. I don't know if you guys do it. I mean, we were talking about it. You and me, Jeremy. We might have the same thing, right? Yeah, I have it too. I do. Yeah, I have it too. But what I do is I just yell and scream as I'm getting stuff done. Uh-huh. So like I'm getting stuff done. I don't think you know what a panic attack is though. It's not like freaking out and like with anger or anything like that. It feels like you're going to have a heart attack. No, I'm not like mad. I'm just like... It's just like it sounds like I'm pissed off all the time. Uh-huh. But it's like a Tourette's, but it's like a productive Tourette's. Uh-huh. Where you're just like swearing and pissed off and just like going crazy. But you're actually doing stuff. Yeah, this is like a different thing that I'm talking about though. Nothing actually works until I get angry. I got to tell you like the first... I first had these years ago. Maybe I think I was working at a place. It was like 1999 is when I had my first like experience with anxiety attack like that. And like one night I was trying to go to sleep and I couldn't go to sleep because every time I doze off, like I'd feel my heart stop and I feel like I'm stopping breathing. And like I would just like jump up and sit up and like, you know, my heart would start pounding. And I felt like I was going to pass out. And I'm like, oh my God, here come Martha. I'm coming for you. You know, I thought I was Fred Sanford about to have a heart attack and stuff. And like I was up all night doing that same thing, like getting really tired, trying to fall asleep. And then like I can't breathe. My heart would feel like it's going to stop. And I'd feel like really like I'm going to die. And I went to work the next day, like totally looking like shit. And my boss, you know, comes to me and he's like, you know, you look terrible. Like, well, you've been out partying. And I'm like, no, man, like you're not going to believe this. But I think I'm having a heart attack. And like, I'm really scared that I'm going to drop dead, you know, and I think I'm going to leave right now to go to the hospital because, you know, and I described how I was feeling and he's like, oh, no, you're having an anxiety attack. And I'm like, no, man, like my heart is not beating right. I feel it slow down and like skip and stuff. Then he's like, no, no, you're having a heart attack. But I begged him to just let me go to the doctor. And he said, all right, fine. You go to the doctor. You'll find out that's exactly what it is. Right. Who do you work for? Dude, you got to beg them. You're telling them you're about to have a heart attack. What he was trying to do was like try to try to calm me down and convince me that this wasn't a heart attack. You know, right. You know, he went to the things, you know, are you feeling like, you know, your two fingers, you know, whatever, sharp pains, anything like that. They work for like a rehab company. There's like some nurse or somebody in there that was like, oh, no, that's it sounds like anxiety attack, you know. And I sure enough, I went to the doctor. They did all these fucking tests. And, you know, a few days later, they're like, no, this is. This is anxiety. What it is, is your brain is malfunctioning. It's firing off the fight or flight response when it's not supposed to be when everything's cool. I mean, you could just be having, you know, a fine day. Nothing really sets it off. And then all of a sudden your brain just triggers that adrenaline rush. And I describe it to people. It's kind of like the feeling of like, let's say you're like taking a shit in front of everybody and everybody's looking at you and you're just like just that feeling, you know, or like if you have your back towards a train that's speeding towards you. And you don't know when it's going to hit, but you know, it's going to hit, you know, just a feeling of panic and terror. And for years I was able to control them with like deep breathing and relaxation. And, you know, I got into meditating for a while and that really helped to that really enhanced my life. So you've had this for a while. Yeah, I've had it for years. Yeah. Since 1999. So you reached the anxiety hotline. If you'd like to speak to the anxiety, call 1-800-893-953. 995-622. They're not at the phones aren't working. Their phones aren't running right now. Yes, they are. Oh, OK. Cool. So, yeah. So, yeah, man, I've been like having anxiety attacks and stuff lately. Usually what I do and I'm like, I usually go roller skating. That usually helps me. Like, I usually like let my cares fly around the ring. Is that what you do? That's what I do. Man, do you like to go roller skating? Are you a good roller skater? I can go forward. Uh-huh. Well, you know, I can't really roller skate. So let's not talk shit unless you're like a really good roller skater or something. I mean, because I think what you're referring to is because I went roller skating. Oh, that's right. I remember. I think you mentioned that. It's funny that you would mention that. Yeah, that was just like completely. I was just trying. I was just talking about relieving stress. Completely unrelated to your recent events. Man, I don't know how to roller skate or anything. You know, I've always had a fear of being like on. Is somebody calling? Yeah. Hi, this is caller Mike. You're on the air, man. Are you do you have anxiety problems as well? I do. I mean, I've been in a band with you. So I have plenty of anxiety from that shit. Oh, yeah, that's right. Hey, everybody. We're talking to Mike Morales. All right. Hey, Mike. Don't use my fucking real name. Shit. All right. Well, you know, we'll just edit that out. I'm sure everybody's going to be calling you. How's it going, buddy? You're going all right, man. I'm calming down a little bit. I'm all right. I'm all right. I'm all right. I'm all right. I'm all right. I'm all right. Man, I'm calming down a little bit. I'm opening up about my anxiety. Did you? I didn't realize. Did you have a bad attack recently? Yeah. In fact, I had one before I got over here and I just caught like the tail end of that. I just like logged on right now. Like it was it was tonight. It was tonight and it was actually today, too, because I went to go pay the rent at our studio and I snuck away from work and stuff, you know, whatever. So I went to go pay the bill. And then on my way back to work. Right. I'm sitting on the freeway and I feel another panic attack coming on. I've been having them lately. You know, the last few weeks I've just been having bad, like negative, like energy problems or something, you know. Let me ask you this. Are you are you upping your weed and alcohol? Is it like burying like, you know, like sometimes that affects it, you know, like you do too much of one thing. It's true. You know, the other thing, you know, it's going to fuck with you, dude. You know what it is? It's stress, man. And not any like that. I heard that, you know, it's I'm really I feel really stressed out lately because I quit smoking. You know how heavy a smoker I was, right? It's because of you. It's because when I joined the nicotine's, I thought, well, shit, I'm going to bank all the nicotine's. I might as well start smoking. You know, it looks really good. These guys are really cool doing it, too. So I want to be just like them. So, yeah, man, the people. Dude, I quit smoking. It's almost two months now. I forgot. I think it's like day 50 something. You know, I'm starting to. I'm like, oh, man, congrats. Congrats. It's hard, man. I fucking hate it. I feel more stressed out. And it's not it's not the kind of stress of our OK, bills. I mean, those those kind of those kind of stressors are already there. You know, it's like it's the stress of. Yeah, it's what it is. If you mean like you're about to crack like that's how I feel like everybody is getting on my fucking nerves. I hate everybody and everything. And I'm different from any other deal with you. It's worse. It's worse now. That's my point is like I was already like that to begin with. And now it's like way worse. I feel like all the work I've done in the last like 10 years to be less of a fucking asshole. I'm like regressing back to where I was, you know, with panic attacks. You know what it is, too, man? Like I've been noticing it lately, too, is we're getting older, man. So we're getting like cranky man syndrome. Exactly. So grumpy. Yeah. Grumpy before, man. But like it's amplified now. It's like I don't want to do shit. Yeah, man. I'm going to be 35 on Monday, man. Monday, the sixth. Yeah. Yeah. And then the sixth is going to be my birthday. So if you guys want to email me some gifts. Trying not to kill anybody. So you should run for president. Fuck, man. You're 35. You can be the. That's true, huh? Is 35 the amendment? I think it is. Yeah. Yeah. Shit. Maybe I should run for president. Maybe I should. You know what I think I should do is just like run, period. Like start running and exercising and get more healthy and shit. Because, you know. Yeah. You know, like I've always been a hefty gentleman, right? Wait, wait. Hold on. What? You know, fat. I've always been like fat. But like especially like when you quit smoking. I don't know. Have you ever quit smoking before? Actually, like I put a Facebook post like I forgot how long ago it was. And I hadn't smoked in five days just because I forgot. I guess just because I was so like fucking like my brain was just out of whack like from work and bullshit and everything. And like. I had like two packs of cigarettes in my car. And I mean, I've seen them in there and I did not even touch them. I'm like, fuck, I haven't smoked in like five days. Yeah, man. Like I wasn't even attempting to quit. And like actually right now, like, does that already cash on me? Like and no cigarettes. I'm so jonesy right now. Oh shit. I'm so. I kind of hope that my chick would bring me some cigarettes, but to no avail. You know, whenever I run out of cigarettes or like that's the one thing I would I was trying, like not buying cigarettes for a while. That way I wouldn't have them. So I wouldn't smoke the whole pack, you know? Yeah. You know, I'll just ask some people for some cigarettes, you know, here and there and stuff. So at work, I'd bum one from one guy and like not many people smoke anymore, you know? So like I. At my work, people are chimneys, dude. Wow. It's kind of weird, but I usually don't smoke at work. They do have the chimney crowd. And so like what I do, what I would do, though, in a day, though, I would like bum three cigarettes and I'm like, oh shit, like I can't bum any more cigarettes for like at least the rest of the week. Yeah. Or these people are going to start getting annoyed with me, you know? So like I would be like, oh, I'd walk by people's desks like that, that I knew that smoked and like I'd be like psyching myself out, like just ask them, don't just ask them for a cigarette. Don't just ask you those. Be all right. And I'll be like, OK, I'll ask. And then they're like, oh, no, I don't have any. And then I feel like such a fucking dick, like, OK, oh no, it's cool. It's all right. No, no, no, it's all right. Yeah. But really, on the inside, I'm like thinking like, fuck you, motherfucker, especially the ones that used to bum a lot of cigarettes off of me. And they never have a fucking cigarette for me when I want one, you know? Fuck, man. These fucking cigarettes drive you crazy. Yeah, they are. That's why when you were quitting, I was saying you should switch to the Virginia Slims. Yeah. So first of all, nobody wants to bum them. And then you don't even want to. And then you don't want to smoke them either. Hey, man, I'll bum some Virginia Slims. I had a bunch of Virginia Slims when I wasn't buying cigarettes, man. You know? Dude, I'd smoke one of them shits right now. I'm Johnson. I'm Johnson. I'm Johnson. Well, I mean, and that's my point, man. It's very difficult, man. It's really hard to do. And I hope that I stick with it because I'm like 35 now. I'm going to be 35. And I feel like my health, now it's starting to count. You know what I mean? When you're in your 20s, you could be partying and fucking be overweight, eat the bullshit food and then there's less risk of you having a heart attack. When you're in your 30s, that's where shit starts becoming real and it starts becoming a reality. And right now my back is so fucked up, man. Oh, dude, me, I'm in the same fucking boat. You've seen my Facebook post. I'm just a wreck. I liked that one because I identified with you. I always like you. I always try to like your posts and stuff, especially like friends. Like friends that I know in person and stuff. I'd be like, I'm going to support their comments. I'm going to click like. I'm going to like their comments. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. that oh man nobody likes my jokes but you know i'm gonna drop my account i mean it guys i'm struggling over here man and and like me and jeremy have been talking you know the last like couple weeks like we we're kind of in the same boat you know what i mean we're both we're both big dudes and uh which means fat that's like a nice way of saying i say i say start a sumo league right it's it's good for the silver lining it's good cardio and uh you learn a skill you know so we stay in shape we're starting to notice that things are really starting to hurt now and we're have no energy that's the worst part man it's just just having zero energy and yeah yeah your your knees aren't actually built as pistons to hold up a giant cannonball you they're actually just there to like bend and stretch as you walk with like a you know a svelte upper frame it's really not meant for that shit you know though man like i'm kind of afraid to lose a lot of weight now because i've been so fat for so long that when when fat people lose weight they get like loose skin and their head never loses weight you look like jonah hill have you seen that lately you could always just get taller that guy looks fucking weird i'm like please be fat again because you're you're grossing me out with your new skinny giant fat head look you know yeah man if you dropped a bunch of weight did i have a fundraiser for you because i think you have cancer or something vince vince is thin i mean he looks good but he's not fat anymore so he's like you remember there have been a few times where i actually like lost weight and like looked kind of good yeah totally dude i could do it again it's just you know i gotta deal with like the loose skin there's people that that we know and i'm not going to mention names because it's kind of fucked up but uh you might know you might know this guy he used to hang around with us and stuff but um he was a heavy guy and uh then when he lost weight like he would tell me and i'm not going to say his name because i told him i'd never tell him that people about this but he's like man no no no no no no that's another you know i'm talking about dude yeah i think i think david you're talking about lemon i think david coda still might be a hefty check yeah but that's not the guy that i'm talking about i'm talking about another guy he told me he's like yeah man but don't tell him like hey man because he lost a lot of weight and like turned normal looking and uh i'm like hey man you look good he's okay man he's all one thing i won't do is take off my shirt and i'm like why he's like well because like i just have all this loose skin and stuff you know and then one time we went we all went swimming and he didn't want to take off his shirt and everybody like pressured him into doing that and like he really did have like just like loose saggy skin and i'm like oh my god he's like oh my nipples are in my pocket i'm damned if i do damned if i don't you know what i mean so so like to fill up the space i think that if i lose a lot of weight i think i gotta like replace it with like massive muscle you know what i mean like become hooked out yeah juice up and hulk out you know to try to fill in the saggy gaps yeah that's what i was saying about uh jonah hill he should he needed to hit the weights what is it with that i mean are some people just meant to be fat or does your because like i noticed that i think even with big boy remember big boy i think it stretches your oh that was just gross it morphs your like skeletal structure but don't you think that's because they're they're celebrities and and you see them on tv and you know their character as a fat dude and he plays kind of those roles and then yeah everything and it looks weird you know what also too is like you like dan was saying like the the frame like people get used to carrying that weight and so like when they lose the weight they're still walking around all hunched over with that frame like they're carrying 300 pounds you know and uh for me like i've always been kind of stocky like since a little bit at one point like i dropped 40 pounds and like got super skinny but of course put the weight back on and now that i'm older put more weight on and i think i was i think i'm just predisposed not to be a fat guy but just to be like kind of like a fucking stocky like bulldog type you know like i'll never be like a fucking supermodel like super thin unless i fucking take a lot of drugs and drop a lot of weight but like honestly just looking at my family i'm just like predisposed to that so you know what i hate is this bmi body mass index thing and that's total horseshit dude is it because it says that i'm like borderline obese and so some some people will consider it obese and that's what my doctor told me and i'm like oh my god you're telling me i'm obese and he's like yes you're obese and i'm like wow hmm that's great all right can't wait to tell me but he's like no no you're at the you're at the bottom level of obesity i'm like oh okay good that's great that doesn't make it sound any better yeah it's like you're an alcoholic but you're a functional alcoholic it's okay oh yeah hey let's not point fingers and then he shoved his finger up my asshole and checked for like roids and stuff and she's very uncomfortable you know i don't know did he have hands like dicks it felt like you know like a like a hard thick by the way or something but it was really just his index finger i'm like man those are meaty fingers that hurts for people eavesdropping on our conversation here it's uh we're talking about a lot of people who are like oh my god i'm like i'm like i'm like i'm like i'm like i'm like i'm like i'm like i'm like i'm like i'm like i'm like i'm like i'm like i'm like i'm like i'm like i'm like i'm like i'm like i'm like i'm like i'm like i'm like i'm like i'm like i'm like i'm like i'm like i'm like i'm like If you ever see them. All right. See them before they see you. Exactly. But back to Vince is asshole. Back to Vince is an asshole. This is fun. I got to call in more. Yeah. I'm glad you called in, man. I mean, this is a special time, too, because we don't, we're, oh, I told Jeremy, I'm like, let's see if we could just do the show without like a formal guest and just kind of talk about this stuff, you know? Well, boom, you got one. Well, cool, man. I don't know if you want to, if you want to wait, if you want to hold and keep talking with us or anything, because we're going to play some songs right now. And I'm actually going to fucking go take it. I'm going to go take a leak and take a shower and go to sleep. Well, cool, man. Well, thanks for calling in, Mike. I love you, man. I love you, too, man. Take care. And it's really good to hear from you. And you should just come in one of these Thursdays, man, and come in and hang out with us. Let's plan that shit. Yeah. Come down next Thursday. All right. All right, man. All right. Or Thursday coming up or something, dude. Thanks for calling, Mike. All right, Mike. All right, everybody. Mike from Hands Like Bricks. And they also like to, as a joke, they say hands like dicks. So it reminds me of that movie, Edward Penis Hands. You ever see that one? I heard about it. It's a good one. And it's just what it sounds like, too. Instead of scissors, he has two dildo hands and stuff, and they shoot jizz everywhere. And he stands and he spins around like a sprinkler fountain thing and jizzes everywhere. It's a pretty good movie. Nice. I like the writing in that. I think that should have gotten Academy Awards. Academy Award for porns and stuff. But anyway, we will play some songs. I'm going to go down and get some beer. I think you guys want some beer. We're running out. So I'm going to go take a walk to 7-Eleven. But don't worry. I'll be with you guys. The stallion don't come from nowhere, you know. So we'll be back with more on the More Music Radio Pod. All right.

In America, we only speak English, but people from other countries speak multiple languages. You ever see that movie, The Gods Must Be Racist? Oh, no. I mean, The Gods Must Be Crazy. I remember they said Coca-Cola. I remember that. All right. Here's your Victoria. Make sure that Sonya gets a beer. All right. Now we're just going to kick it. Okay. So, Sonya, we played a show together on Friday. That wasn't a very good show, though. Yeah. You know what happened is we played that show, and there was PA issues, and our studio was immediately down the street. Yeah. So we're like, well, I guess we got to go get a PA and save the day here. Uh-huh. And then, so yeah, we did that. I still have never seen your band. I know. We met. I've seen it. It's great, man. You're missing out. I don't know. We kind of got back together. I got pissed off about something and had to leave right away. So what happened? Tell us what happened. What'd you get mad at? I don't know. We got a little upset because we kind of got sucked into letting them use all of our shit, which is why we thought we were going to play there. I don't know. It was like this big miscommunication thing. We thought they blew our app, our drum amp. Oh, shit. So they did break one of our cables, but yeah, whatever. It still works. That sucks, though, because I don't want to totally torch it. I don't want to totally torch the name of this place because they just opened like two weeks. I don't know. I don't know. What is it? I think it was just a weird night. They're still getting it together. I don't know. The promoter. It's a very cool space. One of those things. Hopefully the kids will get it together and it'll be a nice space. They need to put up some baffles over there, though. The sound was a little bouncy. You know what? Really, kids, if you're going to put together a show, let us tell you how to do it. First of all, you need a place that's kind of cool. Any place you can make cool, all right? So to make a show cool, you have to have a PA. They're on point right there. They have a very nice space. You have to have a PA first so people can sing. Usually people will bring their instruments and it'll be loud enough and you can just play. But you need to hear the vocals because when you don't have a PA, the singer is not going to be able to be louder than the instruments that are playing. You're not going to be able to hear the voice, you know? So you need PA. So there wasn't a PA there, but you know what really sucks is why are you messing with my headphones? I was trying. No, I was trying to turn you down in my head. So anyway, so what happened was the worst thing that happened, though, is like the band, there was a touring band from Seattle that night. Sioux City Pete and the Beggars or something like that. I've seen the YouTube video. I didn't get a chance to check them out, though. You know, it's like the people are having fun and I love that, you know? And they put on a good performance. I thought they were good. I like their whole like their ethic. You know, they're like, this is rock and roll. And this is for real. And this is happening right now. And it was cool. They lit up incense and stuff like that. But yeah, they put on a good show. You know what, though? There's a rule. When you have a touring band and you're charging at the door, you cannot withhold money for the touring band. Like any money that you have should. I mean, even if it's 40 bucks, give the fucking 40 bucks to the touring band, you know, because afterwards they were really upset with us. They were kind of upset with us because I guess, you know, they thought, you know, we're from here. And you're wearing ties. You guys must have something together. Yeah, but you had nothing to do with the show. No, no. What did he say? He was like, hey, man, you know, this is bullshit. And you know what? He's all I'm going to tell you guys because you're like a real band. But when out of town bands come and play like you have to give them something. These guys didn't give us anything. And they're charging at the door. And I'm like, hey, man, I'm sorry. You're preaching to the choir. You know, like we're not getting anything. I mean, most of these bands, they need that money to get to the next show. Yeah, it's fucking shit. It costs money. You know what I mean? It's like and that's what I hate about. Like when people are like talking shit about L.A. and like how L.A. people are just like, you know, L.A.'s notorious. Like the shows are like L.A. You won't get paid if you're a touring band. And that's bullshit. You know, and I hate hearing that. It's true. You know, and it's really just etiquette. You know, that's not rocking out correctly. If you're putting on a show and you're not paying the touring band something, you know, like I think they just got like totally denied. So. So get a P.A. Make sure that you're paying the touring bands and stuff like that and everything will be cool. I mean, I always have fun playing, but I mean, I don't know, man. Like I really like and another thing, too, like a lot of people said they were going to go to like I that's what I hate about this Facebook. I fucking should be called Farcebook because I heard Jello Biafra said that. And that sounds pretty cool. So I'm gonna start calling it Farcebook, you know, because it's like people are on there just to fucking dick around and fucking be social. Like. Like in a way that they don't actually have to go in. The way you're talking right now, you're going to you're going to lose. We're going to lose friends right now. Yeah. You know, if you don't like it, defriend us. OK. Unfriend us and block us. OK. And we're going to block you, too. But tell your friends to like us. But you're not going to see all the shit. You can unfriend us. Tell us. Tell your friends we're cool. So anyway. Yeah. So that was that show. I don't know why I'm going on on a thing. But I mean, that's that sucks, man. I hate like I hate like L.A. being represented like that. You know, to to Sonia's point. Like about the equipment. I mean, you know, a lot of these bands work their asses off to get the equipment they have. Right. And I can I can understand because it's like the band that's there that's just like bombing equipment off of everybody. They don't give a shit about that equipment the same way that you do that you had to work hard for that equipment. Right. You know, I mean, and when something fucking breaks with your band, like a lot of these bands, if you're you got a broken amp. You're fucked. That sucks, man. And, you know, sometimes shit happens like a cable will go out or something, you know, like a cymbal will crack or something. And that's like, you know, well, it sucks, but it's like not like like just like belligerent and stuff. And I've had people like really like be like the biggest fucking assholes with my shit. Like I would. There's a band that's playing right now that I lent my amp to the guy and I said, hey, man, just take care of this thing, man. Like, you know, it's cost a lot of money. I love this thing. And I hate it when people come to you like at a show about to go on and they're like, hey, man, can I borrow your amp? That's the only time they do it. Yeah. That's fucking bullshit. You know, it's like I fucking hate that shit too. Because that sucks because you the people that are doing that are putting are putting us like on the spot. You know, it's like you could either A, say no. So you're an asshole if you say no. Of course. Like a dick like, oh, OK, well, we couldn't play because that fucking fat fuck from the Mormons. They don't want to let us use their fucking amp and shit. You know, so it's like, OK, so you want to be closer. Like, OK, but please take care of it. I told this guy to take care of it. And it was they played for fucking two hours. And then I went to, you know, put my amp up and I noticed that there was an upside down beer inside my amp. And there's like a fucking little lake of beer inside my brand new amp. And I fucking told the guy, I'm like, hey, man, I was so fucking pissed. I went and I found him in the crowd. He's all schmoozing around and shit. And I'm like, hey, motherfucker, you better get something and fucking clean my fucking amp right now. There's a fucking beer upside down. Oh, bro. Sorry, bro. So like fucking I had to get all the shit to clean it, you know, whatever. I fucking pretty much cleaned it up. And then afterwards, you know what he told me? He's like, hey, man, you know, rock and roll, bro. And I'm like, motherfucker. I said, you know what, dude? If you ever fucking say that to me again, rock and roll, bro, like that, I'm going to fucking punch you in the fucking face. Dude. That's sick. That's sick. You're going to do well on your fucking equipment at your house. Motherfucker, dude. Yeah. I was so fucking pissed. And that motherfucker, the same dude, I should say who this is, but I'm not going to say. Maybe I'll say it later. Come on, man. This same fucking dude at a party tried to fucking steal my pipe. Like I saw him like fucking put it in his pocket. No fucking shame, dude. And I'm like, hey, man, like anybody see my pipe? You know, whatever. He's like, oh, no, bro. I'm like, hey, man, didn't I see you put my pipe in your pocket? And he's looking. He's all, oh, here it is. Oh, sorry, man. Like he tried. He tried to fucking steal my fucking pipe. People are fucking shitty, man. And that's why it's hard to fucking deal with people. Like people just don't have any manners anymore. But does the scene, does the scene weed those people out? Do they get known to be dicks? No, like. Or they always have somebody. They always have somebody on their side, right? Well, that's because you know why? Because that's the cool to just be like, hey, no, fuck it, bro. This is just rock and roll. Blah, you know. And that's cool. But like when you start fucking pouring beers in people's amps and fucking. Fucking, you know, I don't know. That's the way it goes sometimes, though. But yeah, I don't know how we got this because I kind of wanted to talk about some stuff that I was listening to on the radio. And I heard fucking what's his fate? Like there's the Republicans are running for president right now, right? Because it's going to be Barack Obama against the Republicans. Best guy, right? Right. And so like so they're so Barack Obama is. Versus whoever the Republican leader is. And right now it's Mitt Romney, right? Right. So I actually got some clips. And whenever there's like a presidential campaign, like I noticed the presidents, like the presidential nominees and stuff like they'll try to like seem like they're cool and like they could do stuff, you know. This is presidential American Idol. Hey, what's going on? Is this the is this the piñata hour? This is the peep. Our is this is this Lee from the piñata hour? Yeah, man. Hey, what's going on, man? No, I'm listening to your show right now. Uh huh. And you're talking about the space. Yeah, yeah. The space. Yeah, yeah. Beauty's pain. It wasn't it wasn't like the best. It wasn't the best like show. We had fun playing, but I don't know, man. It's like kind of whack, right? Were you there? Did you go? No, no, no. I could not make it. OK, I'm I'm saying this when you go to it, because you know what? I noticed that you RSVP that you would make it. So you're one of the people that always say that they're going to do stuff. My my son had a little toothache. Uh huh. You know, we have kids. You got to watch them out. Yeah, that's why. Uh huh. But yeah, when you go to a places, unless you get booked at the Echo, the satellite, you don't have to worry about PA. But as soon as you go to a place that you never been there. Before. Right. And it's something that it's a risk. You know, it could be cool. You never know. Like if you if you're going to go someplace, you got to find out and call, make sure they got PA. Yeah. And how much at the door? Who's playing? What are the slides? Those are the most common things that if you're in a band and you've been in a band for a while, you will ask upfront unless you get booked at a different place or promoted that, you know, that you're going to handle everything. Yeah, but we knew these were the bands were playing. This was OK. We had. Dangerously Sleazy. Right. That's a pretty cool band, right? I like those guys. Oh, no, I know all the bands. I know. I. Sketch Monster. I know it was on the bill. Sketch Monster was was going to play. So that's why it sounded cool. And so we said, yeah, like, remember, I told you, like, if they got all these guys and they must have it together, we're just like, we're all cool. We just want to make sure that we're not going to play first or last because we hate getting fucking we hate getting fucking put first or fucking last. You know, how many people show up? I don't know how many people you think. Well, for. Radio sake, I would say like three hundred. Ten or fifteen hundred. Yeah. You know, I'll be like ten. I think it was about sixty five people or so. No, it went up to 80. Yeah, I think there are 80 people. There was maybe. So there was like 70 other people like yourself that said they were going to go and didn't go. You know, just fucking bullshitting. It was what, like twenty twenty five people. There was there was like a peak of like people. People came in and out and stuff, you know. But I thought that people are. You pee. It makes. It looks like it's going to happen. Yeah. Well, I think that's why people. Have the RSVP like. Mm hmm. Three hundred people are going to show up. And it's usually like a percentage. Like if it's two hundred and fifty people that say they're going to show up, it's like a one percent, like maybe twenty. Like two and two and a half people are going to. Well, if that's the case and like that's just like people. Two and a half. Two and a half. One percent. If that's just like. Shut up. If that's just like people's MO, I think they should like turn on our show. Don't even listen. Just just like make it register. Mm hmm. That they're listening to the show. I think on Facebook there's a little thing you can hit and click and it's not going to show how many people are going to RSVP of it. Yeah. You can hide that. Yeah. You can hide that too. I know they got the. Fuck your feds. I like to look at that stuff, though. You know what I mean? You want. It's kind of like a little competition. You look and you're like, hey, I wonder who's winning. Like, oh, look at these people are getting all these bands. People are declining. I think it depends on the bands as well. Like you look at their decline ratio and stuff like that. You can have six or eight bands. They're all from LA, but they all can suck. And sometimes there's bills that you only see like three bands. And then before you know, you see 150 people at a little place. You know, I saw that shit happening. I was like, you know. So we thought, like, you know, it might be a good idea. Just we hadn't played in a while. Like we're like that's our our objective right now is just we're writing new material. And we're going to put the manager. Yeah. We're looking for a new manager. We just fired our old one because he just wasn't cutting it. It was actually like a pretty. It was a. He got. He got into some drugs that we have a problem with. And he actually got really sick. I don't know, man. I don't know if I should be talking about this right now, you know, because this is like a really serious thing. Like the guy almost died and stuff. So we got to find another another manager, you know, or maybe we don't need a manager, man. I mean, we could just be like, you know, just DIY. Do it yourself. You know what I mean? So I'm curious how managers work like on that level anyway. Do they just get you gigs? Or like, what does that mean to be a manager? So like a manager is like this is from what I understand that what I see other managers do is they pretty much like are the ringleader of what's going on. They're like, OK, you guys got to come up with this. And it's like a strategy planner, you know. So they're like, OK, we got to get press releases out. We got to do this. We got to do an EPK. We got to do all this crap. Right. And he pretty much like lines it up. And like try to. There's a difference between a manager who does like the band work and then like a booking agent, the booking agent specifically. To booking shows and getting you a guarantee. But we don't know anything about that. Like there we know of bands that have managers and booking agents and shit like that. But like we can never get we can never get into those doors or something. It's just something about like trying to get to that level. It's like you really got to like fucking suck a lot of dick and be really fake and phony, you know. And but luckily, like we've been around for for a long time and like enough people like us and we have like enough respect from the people that we that we respect. And so that's why we keep doing what we're doing. It's not to say that it's not to say that, you know, things aren't fun right now, you know, but there are definitely some better thing. There's there's the scene could could use some improving. You know, there's a lot of things going on right now and there's a lot of spaces and there's just a lot of like fickle people. It's not just like the bands and there's not just the fact that there's like 10,000 bands going on at once at any given night. You know, it's like there's like. There's too much to do and there's people are fickle, you know, so it's like whatever's like going on. That's like the coolest to go. People will go to, you know, but it's all about having fun. I mean, we're competing with porn. I mean, I mean, what are we supposed to do? You know, I mean, you can get porn at your house for free. Yeah. Any time. Yeah, I was just watching porn right now. See, yeah. So. So a little bit on the Mormon legacy. I mean. I forget where I was, but I was with this younger dude, but he's like, man, I saw the Mormons when I turned 16, man. They've been my favorite band forever. And he was just a huge fan, but like it went way back and I thought that was pretty cool. Yeah. And we were even talking to the to the kid who put the show together. The last show that we played, he was telling us, he's like, hey, man, I even got a bunch of dyslexics flyers. When you guys were. When the dyslexics were like, wow, man, that was cool. He's like, yeah, I was 12 years old. You know, what year was that? Dyslexics was like 1995 or something. Ninety four. Ninety five. We've been doing this for a while. The Mormon started in 98. Really? Yeah. How's that possible? You guys. Yeah, we were still in high school. Yeah. Yeah. We started that shit. I graduated in 95. Yeah. I graduated in 95. 96. You graduated in 96. I thought you're older than I am. I failed a year. I failed the 10th grade. Damn, as smart as you are, fuck. What happened? I just figured that everybody around me was fucking stupid. So I'm just going to not do any work and see what happens. And it worked out. So that's what happened. I think Sonya's very smart. Sonya's very smart. Smart ass. Nah. Yeah, Sonya's really smart. I mean, she holds it down. She holds it down every night. You know what I mean? Yeah. She's smart to be there. She's doing double duty tonight too, right? I had to just start stepping back. I was like, oh, uh, uh. No, actually, Sonya knows that shit better than I do. In fact, you were probably getting in her way at that point, right? Exactly. Exactly. That's what was happening. Hey, so I heard you were getting some insidey attacks and shit like that. Yeah. What's going on with that? You know what, man? I'm just like, my tolerance level is low. You know what I mean? Did you get inside it when you play or? No. Did you get excited when you play or not really? Do I get excited when we play? Hell yeah. That's what I look forward to. Oh, anxiety. It's like, oh my God, I got, I'm going to play a show and shit. No, no. I don't get anxiety. And I guess, you know, I never thought about it. I never really get anxiety like that when we're going to play. I'm never nervous playing. It's always in a situation where I'm working and there's a lot of people and then you start feeling weird and shit. Yeah. Do you know what that is? When you're in a crowd of people and you could hear it. You hear everybody's lips coming apart. Well, yeah, I got to the hospital. And everybody's smacking their lips and talking and the S's and T's, those consonant sound, everybody at the same time doing it. It fucking drives me fucking crazy. And I feel like I'm going to fucking pass out. Yeah, I got to the hospital myself twice. Yeah? Yeah. You thought you were having a heart attack? Yeah. Maybe, you know what? Maybe it's correlated to weed because I know that I'm a big weed smoker. Well, weed, that's what weed does though. It doesn't help much. It doesn't? But it's all in the mind too. If you meditate, you sit down and quiet for about half hour somewhere and you meditate, it goes away. Yeah. And that's what I was doing. But with meditation, it's like exercise. It's something that you got to keep doing. It's something you got to maintain. You got to do it every day regularly. You're supposed to do it twice a day for 20 minutes. Once in the morning, once in the night at least. I meditate once a week. Once a week. Yeah. Every Wednesday from seven to nine. Yeah. Let me take a look at those palms and we'll see how much you meditate. Oh no, that's another thing. So who's on your show Wednesday? This Wednesday coming? Yeah. We got Ed Scasual. Oh yeah. I know that dude, man. He used to work with Mean Street. What's that guy's name again? Yeah. Eddie. Eddie Solis. Yeah. Ed Solis, man. He's going to come down with a guy from Jackass. You know the cameraman that always throws up? Do you know that guy, Jeremy? No. A camera guy that always throws up. Jeremy said that guy's not coming in. Oh, no. I'm just kidding. Hello. He throws up on him. Vince? Yeah. I have Henry Rollins on the air. Oh shit. We have Henry Rollins on the phone. I put him through. I need to ask a question about the rules. How you guys doing? Mr. Rollins. Hi. How are you? Can I call you Hank? No. I'm just kidding. I'm just kidding. No. Call me Henry. All right. Sorry, sir. Rollins. All right. Henry Rollins. Call me Henry Rollins. Thank you. You're welcome. I'm listening to the show. Henry Rollins. Thank you. I agree with everything you're saying about the team in LA. Yeah. I agree with you guys. You sound really pissed right now. What? You sound really pissed right now. How's your neck? I'm pissed all the time. Henry Rollins. God damn it. You know that. Come on. I want to manage you guys is what I want to do. Really? Yeah. I don't know how long you guys have been around. That's true. Would you guys like me to do that? I don't know. What can you do for us? What are we lacking? Well, what I want to do is I want to bench press you guys. I want to make you go high, high, high. Oh, okay. I see what you mean. Do you mean like literally you want to bench press us or figuratively you want to bench press us into the stratosphere? Both. Both. Both. Okay. All right. All right. All right. All right. All right. All right. All right. All right. All right. All right. All right. All right. Now these these these these these these these these these these these these these these these these these these these these these these these these these these these these these these these these these these these these these these these these these these these these these these these these these these these these these these these these these these these these these these these these these these these these these these these these these these these these these these these these these these these these these these these these these these these these these these these these these these these these these these these these these these these these these these these Yeah. And then I started rolling around the floor. And then I started to pee. I could probably pee. Peeing and peeing and peeing and peeing. Right. I filled the whole library up with my urine. Did people complain? You guys know my urine is green, right? Is it? Why? I don't know. It's always been that way. And that's why I'm a performer, I think. Kids make fun of me. That's angry urine. I don't know about it. Yeah, yeah. My urine is angry. So anyway, yeah. So you want me to manage you guys or what? Nah, can we think about it? No. You got to tell me yes or no right now. I have other shit to do, you know? No. Are you serious? Shutting me down, Henry Rollins? That's right. All right. Fuck you guys. Maybe we'll reconsider. I don't know. He's gone. Henry Rollins is gone. Lee's gone too, right? Oh, man. Maybe we can get him. He's back on the air, man. Man, we're getting like all the stars today. Yeah. Yeah, that's right, man. We had that one guy from that one band. And then we had that other guy. He's also on the station. So here's... That's like two guys. And then we had Henry Rollins. Henry Rollins. We're having all kinds of famous people because right now you're going to hear... You know, when I was talking about presidential candidates, Bill Clinton played the sax. You know, they try to pretend that Huckabee guy plays bass and shit. You know? They try to show that they're just like you and they're regular people too, you know? And Obama was singing Let's Stay Together, you know? And he's a black man. And you would expect that a black man could dance and sing right. Right. And here's President Obama singing Let's Stay Together. Let's see. Is it going through right here? Kyle Green was here. Sounds good. Ah... Oh, shit. So in love with you. That's not that bad. He was like, oh! Those guys didn't think I would do it. Oh, shit. I told you I was going to do it. He told you. He cray. He cray cray. The Sandman did not come out. I don't know. He's not the worst president we've had. Don't worry. He's pretty good. I cannot sing like you, but I just wanted to show my appreciation. So that was Obama singing and stuff. And, of course, if Obama does something, you've got to get a rebuttal from the other side, from the Republican nominee, you know, or the guy who looks like he's going to take the nomination. So this is Mitt Romney, and he's singing his favorite song, and he really gets down here. And this is very funny, and you can just listen to it. Fell in love with the land in America. This guy. There's a song that captures that for me. Oh, beautiful for spacious skies. Oh, my God. For amber waves of grain. For purple mountains majesty across the fruited plain. What a fucking douchebag. That's the song that he fucking chose. That's exactly what I expected, actually. That makes perfect sense. He's such a fucking honky-ass bitch. Obama sounds like he's at this place, and he's just having a good time. And this guy sounds like he's giving a fuck. He sounds like he's a fucking speech. He sounds like he's like a 75-year-old white man or something. He's not that far off, but fucking check this out. Can you sing that song? I love that song. You know that song? Oh, beautiful for spacious skies. For amber waves. Is this the song that you would choose to play? This is like, hey, man, I'm going to sing a song, too. For purple mountains majesty. You guys suck, man. It's scary. Above the fruited plain. Oh, my God. People fucking love that. Oh, my God. I love this guy. The middle of the country loves this fucking guy, man. This is like real life. There are people that love this. They're like, oh, my God, he chose a great song to sing. America, America, God shed his grace on thee. I like it. And crown thy good with brotherhood from sea to shining sea. Whoa. Whoa. All right. Fucking honky supreme right there, man. And it sounded kind of like he's just impromptu. Like, hey, you know what? By the way, I want to sing a song, too. You know? Like, if he just pulled that song out of the air, like, you know, that's his favorite song. But here's like, I don't know. Here's something I found, like, pretty interesting to listen to. I love America. I love America. I love our freedoms. I love our Constitution. He loves this song too much. I love our land. I love our people. I love America. I fall in love with the heart of America. The people. The people of this country. I love this country. I love the hymns of America. I love the songs of the country. Our national hymns. American anthems, if you will. And what I've been speaking about the last few days is America the Beautiful. The song, America the Beautiful. I, uh... He's, like, going to different spots all around the country, singing the same shit. Oh, beautiful for spacious skies. For purple mountains, majesty. Certainly not Washington. And the mountains, the White Mountains qualify. As purple mountains, majesty. What's it? Let's see. Waving fields. No, how's it? Uh, uh, more beautiful for spacious skies. Purple mountains, majesties. And, uh, amber waves of grain. For amber waves of grain. When I was in Iowa, I used to claim that corn qualified as an amber wave of grain. I used to joke with my friends in Iowa that corn counted as an amber wave of grain. Corn counts as an amber wave of grain. Yes. That probably accounts for my eight-boat margin. And green waves of grain. With the beans and the corn too. There are other verses I love. There's a verse. I hope we don't forget. There's a verse that says... He like planned all this out like this is his routine. Oh, beautiful for patriot dream. Patriot dream that sees beyond the years. Did that mean Rami? The patriots. The founders. The patriots. The, uh, the founders. This guy is like worse than our set list. There's one more verse. There's one more verse that I might mention. One more verse, let me just quote. One more verse. And one you'll remember well. Another verse I love. Yeah. Another verse. I love the, uh, the verse that says, oh, beautiful for heroes proved. For heroes proved. Heroes. And mercy more than life. Do we have any veterans in the room tonight? We're a patriotic nation. We love those who serve and love this great country. Thanks you guys. You're the very best. Thank you. All right. Mitt Romney everybody. Yeah. Cool. Caller on the air. Caller, you're on the air. This is Lee. Yeah, I'm back. What's going on, man? No much, man. I was getting excited. I was getting excited. I was getting excited. I was getting excited. I was getting excited. I was getting anxiety attacks. I went outside to get my medicine. I'm back now. No. All right. I mean, smoke some weed, but didn't we just conclude that that didn't do good? I know. It's a vicious cycle. What are you going to do? Hey, but listen, um, there's two things against something that about this Mitt Romney guy. Two negative things about him. All right. What? The way that he's white and he likes his favorite song is America the Beautiful? No. No. Number one, he's a Mormon. Right. And the second thing, he's a Mexican-American. Is he Mexican-American? That's the two things that he's not going to be elected. I think Obama's going to win again. You think so? Yeah. Cool, man. Another choice. Yeah, man. And then when he wins, we could all say it's because you predicted it. Yeah. We can like play this podcast over and over. Well, cool, man. We're going to do it. We're going to do it. We're going to do it. We're going to do it. We're going to do it. We're going to do it. We're going to do it. We're going to do it. We're going to do it. That was, what do you think? So who wins in the singing battle? How did Obama do compared to Mitt Romney? Because I mean- Play the Obama one again. People got sold. So when they open their mouth, whatever they say- And then to know that Reverend Al Green was here. Oh, shit. Oh, shit. Oh! Ow! Oh! Oh! Oh! Oh! Oh! Oh! Oh! Oh! Oh! Oh! Oh! Oh! Oh! Oh! Oh! Oh! Oh! Oh! Oh! Oh! Oh! Oh! Oh! Oh! Oh! Oh! Oh! Oh! Oh! Oh! Oh! Oh! Oh! Oh! So, so, so in love with you. Yeah, man. Shit. Shit. All right, cool, man. So that was President Obama and Mitt Romney. All right, man. So, hey, let's take another break, play another couple songs, and we'll be back on the More Music Radio Pod. All right. Oh, no. Wait a minute. How? You got the right bit. How not? How the fuck up?

Yeah, cool, thanks man But keep the, you could edit that right Yeah, welcome back to the More Music Radio Pod Alright man, tonight we're just kicking back We're hanging out What did we do tonight? We talked about, most of the show was like panic attacks and anxiety attacks and stuff Yeah And you know, this actually makes me We went and got some beer I actually feel a lot better Yeah You know, like I was feeling really shitty today like Those panic attacks take a lot out of you, you know Like they wind you, like you get physically tired and drained And it's embarrassing because people start looking at you because You're acting weird Yeah And you can't explain like I'm acting weird because I'm scared, you know Like people won't understand that Mine happened mostly when I'm alone though, so Yeah For me, for some reason it gets triggered when I'm alone I'm in my car alone That's better, that's better because at least there's not somebody One time I was watching TV with my roommate Red With my roommate We were kicking it, smoking some bowls and stuff in my room And like I had a panic attack and he thought I was joking, you know Like he was like, whoa And then all of a sudden he got like real concerned He's like, are you okay? I'm like, oh my God, man, I'm clutching the fucking couch And I'm like, it feels like you're on a roller coaster Yeah And I'm like, dude, I'm having a panic attack right now, man It's either that or dude, if my heart stops, like call the fucking paramedics And dude, that's embarrassing, right? Imagine you're kicking back with your friend and your friend's all like Oh my God, I'm gonna have a heart attack right now Especially when you're fat too though If you're skinny and you have a panic attack, you know But when you're fat and you have one, then they're just like, oh, that guy's fat, no shit Yeah, it's more embarrassing Yeah, especially anything that's embarrassing and you're fat It just makes it that much worse Like when you fall down Oh, that guy fell down because he's fat Dan brought this up earlier, roller skating and shit Like I fucked up my back because this week, this last weekend on Saturday My girlfriend and Patrick's girlfriend decided to plan a night of roller skating Over at the Wonder Wheels or something like that They were shooting an episode of Candid Camera And man, like I'm terrified of being on roller skates or skating Like when I was a little kid, I put on roller skates and tried to roller skate I fell on my ass and I got like an electricity thing going up my spine into my brain and shit And after that, I never wanted to fucking skate because I don't want to fucking skate I don't want to fucking fall down And so like a couple weeks ago, my girlfriend told me like, okay, hey, we're going to go roller skating What do you think about that? I'm like, babe, I can't roller skate And I started getting like panicky about it, you know, because it's humiliating to fall down as a fat person, you know And I just don't want to go through that And I know I'm going to be scared and I'm going to fall down And like I thought like, you know, like with my luck, I'll probably end up hurting whoever like my girlfriend would probably be the one that's holding me You know what I mean? I freaked out. I'm like, no, I don't want to do this. I don't want to fucking roller skate. I fucking why are we doing this? But she's like, I like roller skating, you know, so I was like, all right, I don't want to be a dick. Let's go. I'll be a good sport. And so we said, okay, let's do it. So we went there. It was me and my girlfriend and Patrick and his girlfriend, ECR. And we put on our skates and already, man, I put my skates on. And I already felt like that anxiety that I was like, I'm going to fall down. Now these these these these these these these these these these these these these these these these these these these these these these these these these these these these these these these these these these these these these these these these these these these these these these these these these these these these these these these these these these these these these these these these these these these these these these these these these these these these these these these these these these these these these these these these these these these these these these these these these these these these these these these these these these these these these these these these these these these these these these these these these these these these these these these these these these these these these these these these these these these these these these these these these these these these these these these these these these these these these these these these these these these these these these these these these these these these these these these these these these these these these these these these these these these these these these these these these these these these these these these these these these these these these these these these these these these these these these these these these these these these maybe I could do it. So, um, long story short, man, or to make it shorter, yeah, they're functional fat people that are like athletic and stuff, you know? Yeah. And I, I can kind of be borderline functional fat person. Like I can play baseball and stuff every once in a while, you know, I could hit it and maybe run and catch the ball and throw it a little bit. But, um, anyway, so we didn't, I didn't, man, I didn't even get out to the fucking rink, man. We went down the ramp and I was like fucking so freaked out and like, I was about to fall and I felt myself falling and I fell and I hit my girlfriend in the nose and I heard a crack. It was like, it was just the wrong thing. And then I, when I fell down, I felt like the discs in my spine, like slip and just like excruciating pain. And I took off my skates and I gave up, man. I said, you, you go skate. So, um, I, I was just watching them skate. It was fucking embarrassing as fuck. And exactly what my, my biggest fear about going roller skating happened. Yeah. Doesn't that suck? And my back has been fucked up, man. And my back was fucked up before then. And like, I knew that if I fell down, I was going to, I was going to injure it more. And it's so fucked up right now. I got to go see like an acupuncturist and stuff, but. But do you think that, that this was all a self-fulfilling prophecy because. It might've been, man. Yeah. Mentally, you didn't want to do this to begin with. No. You were thinking of every scenario. You were thinking of how it could go wrong. Right. How you know it's going to go wrong. And then. But man, I tried, man. I really did. I really did put an effort. I really did try. I was like, I even tried to like gain my balance, try to figure it out. You know, I tried my best, but it just didn't work. You know, I hear Sonia in there laughing at me. I know, she's laughing right at you. Because she's laughing so hard it's going down the hall and into this room. But it was funny, man. And I was like, and you know, like when that, you hate to be that kind of guy. To be the guy that fucking can't roller skate and can't participate in what everybody's participating in. Caller. Hi. Hey, we got a caller on the air. Patrick, what's going on, man? I wanted to, are you still talking about the roller skating experience that we had last weekend? Yeah. This is Patrick from the Mormons. You're being very modest, Vince. This is exactly, exact opposite. That didn't happen at all. Like Vince, he just, he never skated before in his life. He just went right out on the roller skating rink and he paralleled it. This middle part where there's like a, you know, like a little bit of a gap. This middle part where people like, like there's couches and people like dancing. You have to get there if you're really good at it. But Vince was skating and he paralleled over the whole fucking thing. Other side of his feet. And he was like passing it. He was like doing all these cool tricks and dancing. Oh, man. Dude, I'm trying. You're being modest. Dude, I'm trying to. You were doing double axels. You're ruining it, man. Like I'm trying to like put out this. He even brought a skateboard in with him. He was running a skateboard with roller skates. Dude, don't give him, don't tell him that. It was amazing. Patrick, you're ruining it. I'm trying to like to put forth this persona of like a loser. You know what I mean? Because I don't want people to know the truth that everything goes right for me. You know, like I want people like an underdog. And so you want to pretend to be an underdog. And so like, I don't want that, you know. All right. I'm actually pretty good skating and stuff. All this stuff is bullshit. I'm not panic attacking. Everything's great right now. You said like, check this shit out, dude. I'm rich. You put them on your head. And you're standing on your head roller skating. That's fucking amazing. And you're doing flips and it's like landing on your feet and then putting them back over and then you're on your hand. I learned that from you, though. I learned that move from you. I was just falling down all the time. I was having to make it to that cool couch park where you could see the little dance. I don't know. But it was fun, though. I appreciate that, Patrick. I appreciate it. But you and I both know the truth, man. You saw what happened and like it was a really hard thing. Yeah, it was really hard. That didn't happen. It did. I think the most embarrassing part is falling down in the short shorts with your headband and your earphones on. Patrick was actually really good, man. Like, he was way better than I was, man. Was he skating backwards? I thought for sure. I'm like, when we said we were going to go, I'm like, oh, okay, well, I know Patrick can't really skate, you know. So at least I won't be the only one who's not skating. But this guy like didn't give up, man. He just kept going. I mean, he fell a lot, but he was skating. Like he was doing like the little shuffle, the little shuffle skate. But you were doing good, man. I was doing so good, they had to have somebody come out and pull me off the thing because they didn't want me to break my wrist. Are you serious? Yeah. You should have just like bend your knees or something. People were trying to train you, huh? Hey, you know what, though? At the end of the night, there was this girl that was roller skating. And it looked like she knew how to roller skate. But at the end of the night, like they turned on the house lights and shit. And she was like all fucked up. Like I guess she fell and hit her face. Or something. And the ambulance came. Oh, yeah. Yeah. She was still skating. She's old, man. Yeah. She's awesome. Some girl like really hurt herself and stuff. And I'm like thinking to myself, you see, fucking roller skating is fucking dangerous, man. And I'm lucky I fucking got out of it, you know, just fucking up my back more. You know, I could have died. Maybe she got like Galooly, like Jeff Galooly. Did you have fun, Patrick? From Latonya Harding. Yeah. You know, it was just, it was my goal was to surpass the last time I was skating. The last time I skated with William C. when I was in elementary school. And they did that. Yeah. You did good, man. I'm very proud of you. Everybody, a round of applause for Patrick. He did really good. Ball skate. He always gives, like, even like remember Patrick even said himself, like when he would play baseball, he would just wouldn't try. He would just give up and stuff and get out. But this time he didn't give up and he was, he actually did really good. Thank you. That's something that I got. That's something I could learn off of, man. I appreciate that. Maybe next time when my back isn't fucked up, I'll try roller skating again. Skate. We're going to do skiing next time. You inspire me, man. You are the wind beneath my folds. Ooh. I say, is anybody like Yoshinoya? Yeah. It's pretty good. Well, I got a bunch of coupons, so. If anybody wants to call in. 800-893-9562. Call in. We'll get you some Yoshinoya coupons. You can get 50% off a regular teriyaki chicken bowl. Okay. Cool. And a $0.98 soup. That's good. We want to get into the habit of doing commercials, too. Did you hear the Lightning Woodcock commercial? That was pretty awesome. It was cool. Yeah. If anybody's out there listening, get the Lightning Woodcock EP, DTLAMF. All right. Yeah. And if you want a drink, go to the Redwood. Yup. Yeah. That's right. They have things to drink there. If you want to get high, smoke weed. Yeah. I know a guy. Yoshinoya. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. I know a guy. I'll get you a Yoshinoya for 50% off any bowl. Okay. Cool. Save that one for me, all right? Okay. I will. Cool, man. I'll talk to you later. I'll take my comments off the air. All right. Cool. That doesn't make any sense. I just wanted to say that. Thanks, man. All right. So, more about that, Patrick. Bye. Appreciate it, dude. See you. All right. Cool, man. So, yeah. You know what? We got a couple more things we got to play. So, why don't we talk about some of the things we got to play. So, why don't we take a break and we'll be back on the More Music Radio Pod.

Hi, this is James Quall, and you are listening to the More Music Radio Pod on skidrow.la. Skidrow night, yeah, alright. We're just kicking back drinking beers tonight. Yeah. Giving all the guests in LA a break, you know. Want to stop harassing everybody to come and experience the More Music Radio Pod, you know. We're just giving everybody a little night off. We're still here working, though. We're having a good time. Everybody's in, went to Indianapolis. They're on Radio Row. They're talking to the football players for the Super Bowl. It's going to be awesome. Yeah, so we ran that Dino Stamatopoulos thing, and Frankenholz is out now. Yeah, they have the second season is out, and I think they're on their third episode or something. Yeah, that sounds about right. We went to the premiere. Yeah, over at the Castle, Starburns Industries. Yeah, yeah. That was amazing. Shout out to Joe Russo, who was supposed to be here tonight, and he actually committed that. We were at practice. That's the guy. He owns him, and Dino Stamatopoulos are the guys behind Starburns Industries, and they do Frankenholz and Moral Oral, and they do a lot of cool animation stuff, you know. And Joe Russo was supposed to be here tonight, but he said he was going to be here, but he's obviously not here. He just kind of flaked out. All right, shout out to you, Joe. I don't know why, but there it is. We'll get him back on. We'll get him on here. And Drew, too. Drew Vanaugh, which reminds me, Drew Vanaugh played in Tune To Me, and he was actually at Tune To Me practice tonight, and he said that he got too tired and he couldn't show up, but that's cool. Because today we played a Tune To Me song called Cartilage, and you also heard Elimehi Usheti with Tekur Gisela. That means Black Panther in Ethiopian. You heard some Lightning Woodcock with Stop Breakin' My Balls, a song off of the DTLA-MF EP. And you heard Pussycow with Forgot the Handshake. And just a while ago, you heard Fuckass and the Grease Patrol with Blackers. All right. Have you seen Fuckass and the Grease Patrol, guys? I've seen it. What a fucking trip, right? Yeah, I've never actually met, like, had a conversation. I've seen the performance. He's behind, like, a cape. But, yeah, the actual... It's weird. The actual... The actual person is very elusive. Yeah. It's... The thing I have a hard time with is when people ask me to describe what Fuckass and the Grease Patrol is. Yeah, yeah, yeah. I can't put it into words. I always say it's, like, surreal adult tripped out Chuck E. Cheese. Like, adult Chuck E. Cheese, but, like, kind of weird and strange. Like, an acid trip. That's a really good description. Yeah. Chuck E. Cheese acid trip. Wow. That's the way I like to call it. So, yeah, you can check out Fuckass and the Grease Patrol. Just look them up on the infranet. All right. And then you heard a Mormon song, Red Still Dawn, when we performed live on Demolition on KXLU. All right. Yeah, I was talking with Sonia. She was telling me that that was one of the more highest viewed videos on KXLU's website. Oh, yeah. We got a mention on KXLU's website, too. People liked that. They liked... Hey, man, it's free country. You can do whatever you want. And we were voted number 21. We're the number one top band in Long Beach. Wow. We're from there, so... Pretty cool. Yeah, man. And we were talking about earlier... Maybe we'll move to Long Beach where the people want us. Let's quit our jobs and move to Long Beach. Want to do that? Apparently, we got a place to stay. We're 21st... We're in the top 25. We're 21st band in Long Beach. So, we should just move over there, man. Yeah. Dan, you've been talking about, like, quitting your job to play music. Yes. Yes. Yes. Talking about that seriously. I'm scared to do that. Yeah. You know, because it's a money thing. It's kind of... But... Yeah. I love my mom so much, but I don't want to go live back at my mom's house again. You know? Like, I like being, like, free and independent. You know? Yeah. Yeah. So, like, I'm scared to quit my job. You know? Yeah. It could be a scary thing. I mean, I've never had... Not had a job. So, I mean, I'm kind of, like, lucky in that. That fact. But feel kind of coddled at the same time. You know? Like, I've never had it rough. Not that I'm, like, trying to put myself in a rough situation intentionally. Mm-hmm. But... Is it possible? You think you could do it? I don't know. People do it. Try it and let me see. Let me see how it works out. Maybe I'll try it. I went... I don't know if we were having this conversation on here one other time, but I was... I know I was talking to Jimmy, and I was telling him... I went to go see Dinosaur Junior a couple weeks ago. And Henry Rollins said, you know, I don't know if I can do it. I don't know if I can do it. I don't know if I can do it. I don't know if I can do it. I don't know if I can do it. I don't know if I can do it. I actually called in earlier. It was there. But that's a little side note. But anyway, the band that was opening up for them was horrible. And, like, I was just, like... Like, they weren't... They were just, like, super awful. I don't even... Like, they're worse than, like, all of our local bands. Like, any... Like, imagine, like, the dumbest 15-year-old kids. They were worse. I think our L.A. local bands are pretty fucking kick-ass. No, they are. There's, like, a good handful that are, like, whoa. Yeah, I'm just saying, you know, sometimes you'll run into, like, wow, that's horrible. But anyway, these guys were, like, beyond horrible. They were, like, worse than anybody I'd ever heard. And, like, just the fact that they were getting paid was... Worse than Lady Gaga? Yeah, yeah. Yeah, definitely. Wow. No, I like Lady Gaga, actually. I think she... You do? Well, I... You like when she goes, rah, rah, rah, rah, rah. Yeah, yeah. Da-da-da, rah-rah, rah-rah. Yes. That's my favorite. Yeah. I kind of like that, too. I like it when she dances... Forget what I said. ...on her dick. It kind of falls out. Yeah. I like to see that. But, yeah, I was like, dude, these guys are horrible. Like, the fact that they're getting... Excuse me, getting paid. I know. I got eggy, too. I know. Too much beer. Too much yeast. I got a yeast infection in my throat from all this beer. We get eggy sometimes, man. Oh, man, my computer doesn't work right now. But, yeah, it was just very disappointing to know that... So, there's this shit band, and you're just looking at it. And you're like... It's like, man, they're getting paid. And I'm like, I just paid to see them. That's horrible. But do you also think, I'm in a band that's so much fucking better than that. Well, I don't think of it in that terms. I just think we're definitely better than that. I mean, there's definitely bands better than us. Oh, yeah. I mean, maybe like three or four, but... Right. I mean, not like a lot. It's not getting crazy. But you wonder how do these kids get up on stage now. Yeah, yeah. How do they get this gig? Yeah, how do they get this show? And, yeah, it's like... Maybe their lives are horrible when they're not playing. That's probably why they sound horrible. But I'm just thinking there's got to be something to it. You know? I mean, I'm sure you have to kind of strip your life down at first unless you actually start making money, which isn't like... That's not going to happen. Like, I don't imagine that happening, you know? But... You know, I was talking about it earlier with somebody, actually an old friend of ours, and we're kind of catching up. Alfredo. Remember Alfredo from Madcap? We were talking about that. And... It's kind of like you got to like... You got to... In a sense, we should quit our jobs. You know? Because it's like... It's a very... Just doing this... It doesn't seem like it's a time-consuming job because you go up there and then you play for 45 minutes and then you leave. But there's a whole... To do anything well, there's got to be a whole eight-hour day put into getting something prepared. Because if you just kind of toss in an hour or two and throw it together, that's just kind of what you end up with. And it's like you pretty much got to like go for like a year or two or something, just like living the hard life and being poor and like depending on other people and stuff like that. See? Now, that's the part that I think is kind of hard for me, especially getting older. Right. And like starting to... Like the older I get, the more like cautious I want to be. Like it's not like I don't have that in me, like just that fucking fuck it attitude, you know? But like the older I get, the more cautious and like leery I am about it. Like I want to do that, but I want to do it right. I want to be smart about it, but I don't even know if I'm smart. Well, the thing is, is that when you get to a certain age, you start to feel like your opportunities to just completely fuck around are becoming less and less. So it's like... Right. If I'm 45 and I don't have a stable home, how much time do I have left before like I can... Because you want to enjoy life, right? Exactly. You want to enjoy life, but you don't want to eat dirt. You don't want to eat dirt either. Exactly, yeah. So you're locked into this system that tells you like, if you want to have a good life, the trade-off is that you have to do this job that you hate. Yeah. You want to have a good life, you got to be miserable. Right. And you got to sacrifice everything that makes you happy. Yeah. That's the other thing that's been kind of like freaking me out about it is just like watching people like I work with retire and then like their bodies are all broken down. It's like honestly, we get done with a show and I'm like, like, oh my God, this is... I might die. Like my arm's going to fall off. Yeah. And I'm like, I'm not that old now. It's like if I'm going to be like... If I try to do anything like that after I retire, it's like my body's not going to like... Like it's not going to hold up, you know? Right. It's just like I'm not going to be able to do... So when you retire, there's no point to being retired. You're not going to be able to do anything anyway because your body's already broken down. Yeah, so it's just like might as well just like steal the good years and then like, you know, figure out the rest. I don't know. I think you and me are at a weird age. Vince and I, I don't even know how old you are, Dan. No, we're all the same age. We're all exactly the same age. But we're at that age where it's like you still feel young in a way because you're involved in this scene. You're playing in your band. You're still having a good time. We're doing this radio show, having a fucking good time. But on the other hand, it's like you're 35. Yeah. And it's... I feel like I'm 16, 17 years old though. Yeah. But, you know, you're 35. You're 35 years old. And what are you going to do if you don't figure it out now? Exactly. Yeah. What's going to happen? Yeah, that's like... But then also it's just like that's like something that's like why worry about that? Because everything seems to work out. You know? Like I was talking to Alfredo today and he told me, he's like, you know what? If you were meant to be a fuck up, you would have already fucked up a long time before now. You know? He's like, it's just like you got to just say fuck it and just like not worry about that. And just you will find that you will make things work out. You know? I just... I want to believe that. Yeah. It's hard to... It's scary. Yeah. Because what you got to do is it's almost like it's almost like you're at the edge of a cliff or something. You know? And it's like there's just saying, okay, you know what? You walk off this edge of the cliff and you're not going to fall. It's going to be fine. But you know, your instinct is saying, I'm so scared right now at this cliff where I have to make this decision at this age or something. You know? It's almost like a midlife crisis. You got to decide something. You know? The other thing I always wonder is like I know... I know quite a few people that are not working right now and they want to work or they're looking for jobs, but it's hard right now. Right. But they're making it. They're still being able to pay the bills. And I'm so fucking jealous of those people. Me too. Me too. Because I think, oh, it's a fucking mental block in my head that I can't take this leap because I see other people making it. And they... In a lot of cases, those people seem way happier than I am. Right. Because they don't have to go to fucking work. Even though they don't have a lot of money, you know, they're just like, hey, they're in a better mood when you get home from work. They're in a better mood than you are. Yeah. And it's like, if you're going to be in a better mood and not have any money, that's the better way to go. Right? I trip on people who have like unemployment for like two or three years. And they only gave me 13... They wouldn't even give me an extension. Yeah. When I had unemployment a long time ago, it's like... And it's been... I've been... And I've only had unemployment once. You know, I only went through that once and because they wouldn't give me an extension, so I had to fucking work, you know? And it's like, I feel like I've been working all this fucking time and like spinning my wheels, you know? It's not like I have the drive to advance in the company that I'm working in right now. Like, I don't want to fucking do that shit, you know? Like, I just want to fucking play music, have fun, fucking do radio show, drink beer, and fucking, you know, not have panic attacks. But it's not like that's happening, you know? And maybe that will cure my panic attacks, like not working. It's funny that you mentioned unemployment because I remember this story as a kid growing up in Pennsylvania. One of the summer jobs that kids would get is working at the amusement park in Allentown, Pennsylvania. It was called Dorney Park. And my friend would go there, work the summer months, you know, three months out of the year. And then Dorney Park would kind of officially lay off their employees on the off season. So he'd go work three months and then collect unemployment, go back, and he did this for five years, you know? So, you know, he was like on teacher's salary, basically. Oh, man. Yeah, I don't know. I don't think you can pull that off anymore. But, like, I am afraid of doing that, you know? Because, like I said, I like feeling like I could support myself and I like feeling like I like to indulge, man. Like, I like to have money to take my girlfriend out to eat, you know, take her out to go have some fun. You know, I like to go and buy my friends some drinks every once in a while, you know? Like, I like having just that experience. And, like, I'm, like, afraid of giving that up, you know? Like, I don't want and then, like, I don't think my girlfriend's going to go for that, you know? Like, nobody, no woman is going to want a man who is just, like, a boy man, you know, having these fantasies and stuff, you know? Like, even though I might have faith in it, like, everything's going to be okay, that's just, like, an added stress, you know? So, like, I'm always, like, I always have that in my head, but... Welcome to my apartment slash car? Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. You know? I don't know, man. Like, I want to be able to, like, pull my own weight, you know? Man. I don't know. Those, uh... You looked at me and said, man. Man. I'm just saying, those suburbans are pretty nice these days. Yeah, but, I mean, I don't know. It's not like that can't happen, you know? Like, another thing, too, like, I want to try to manifest something, you know? Like, just by thinking about it and getting involved in stuff, like, I would like to have, like, a venue slash bar slash restaurant, you know? And, like, I mean, I see other people do it, so, like, why can't I do that, you know? But there's, like, all this stuff, like, my brain is, like, I can't focus, you know? Like, I have to calm my brain down. Like, I'm having panic attacks. I can't fucking concentrate on shit. I'm fucking late everywhere. Like, something is going on in my head and there's something that's disturbing me and I think it just might be, like, everyday life, you know? And I don't think that I'm the only one, man. There's a lot of people having the same kind of problems, you know? Like, I work in a place where there's, like, 2,000 people and, like, there's, everybody has their fucking problems, you know? And, like, this lifestyle is kind of nuts, you know? It drives you crazy and it makes you think that you have to be a part of it, you know? But how easy is it to jump off the grid, you know? The thing that I find difficult is, you know, I have a good job, what other people would call a good job. I get paid very well for someone that, you know, doesn't have a college education. You know, you can pull that off in the computer industry. Right. But the thing that kills me, and people say, man, just shut the fuck up. You make good money. Don't worry about it. But it doesn't erase the fact that I go to something that I don't want to go to and I don't want to go to and I'm working on things that I don't care about at all. I just don't care about these things anymore. Right. At one point in my life, maybe I did. I was excited about the type of work that I do. I'm just not there anymore. I can't help that. I've changed as a person. And that's the hardest part. And no amount of money or type of job can really, you know, make that okay. Right. I would love nothing more than to come and do Skid Row Studios full time. Make sure everyone here, you know, gets paid for what they do to help us build this thing that I have a lot of fun doing. And I meet all these great people. Like, this is what I want to do. And I told Joel this the other day. I said, I'm going to stop. When people ask me what I do, I'm going to stop saying computers. I'm going to say, I do a radio station. And that'll make me feel a little bit better, you know. Every once in a while, I'll say that. Like, they go, oh, what are you doing? I go, oh, I'm a musician. And now I say that I'm a musician with a day job, you know. I'm a day jobber or something, you know. It, like, indicates, like, you know, I am working, but I really don't give a shit about it, you know. And, like, I fuck around at my job so much. And I really hope that people that I work with are not listening to this radio show, especially my boss, you know. But I guess if my boss would hear, he'd be cool enough. My boss is really cool. You know, he's a really cool dude. But, like, I don't know. Like, I hope nobody's listening because I'm going to say that, like, I really, like, fuck around on that job so much, you know. Like, I really just, I do barely any work. I'm just, you know, I show up fucking an hour and a half late every fucking day. I'm supposed to be there, like, at 9.30 or 9 o'clock. They're, like, and, like, they stop bothering me about it because my boss just likes me. And so he just doesn't bust my balls about it, you know. But, like, it's almost like I'm, like, self-sabotaging or something. Do they just make you party really hard or? Yeah, like, they, my boss used to call me last call all the time. He's all, oh, your last call's here because I show up, like, all tore up from the night before or something, you know. And he's a really cool dude. Like, I'm actually really fucking lucky with the situation that I'm in with my job, you know. But, and, like, there's people that are out of that, are out of work and they don't have that. And it's, like, I feel kind of like a bastard because I'm, like, not appreciating the work. Like, I appreciate having a job and I appreciate the fact that I can support myself and that I'm not going to be fired. Like, I'm not going to be laid off because the industry I work in is, like, there's always work. Yeah, I think that that's one of the main things about quitting my job would be, like, it'd be cool if I could, like, handpick who I could replace me. No, I don't, I don't give a shit who replaces me. Like, yeah, did my buddy need to take my job? I don't give a shit. You should take my job because I don't want this motherfucker. Yeah, you know, that'd be cool. Like, hey, you know what? As soon as I'm gone, you can move in. But it doesn't work that way. But, like, I'm saying, like, fired, like, I'd be scared of that, you know? But maybe in the back of my head and my subconscious, like, that's what I want or something. I don't know. Because I think I'd be cool with that for a little bit. I think they might pay a severance. I don't know. But I don't know, man. We're talking about maybe quitting our jobs and I just wanted to kind of, like, dive into that to see if, is it possible? I mean, do you think you'd be able to quit your job today? Well, I have a lease. But as soon as that lease was up, I'm thinking about quitting. And you also have a wife, too. What's your wife going to think about when you quit your job? Well, I told her I don't plan to do this forever. Uh-huh. So... You kind of, is that a heads up? It's a heads up that that shit could happen. So... Do you have security with your wife? Does she work? No. No, not at all. Okay. So maybe she would have to start working. Yeah. Would she be cool with that? I would hope so. Are you asking her right now on the More Music Radio? Well, I'm... Yeah, yeah. Hey, here we go. No, yeah. No, I've asked her before. She said, yeah, it's cool. But you know what? And if it's not, then shit. What are you going to do? I think that everything does work out in the end. And I think if we focus our energy, you know, positively, I think things will start to happen. I mean, we were just talking about how many people are listening to skidroad.la now. I mean, we're getting tons of hits. Things are growing exponentially and we're not even really doing that much advertising for it. You know, we're not promoting that much for it. So, I mean, just imagine what happens when we really get into gear. You know, there's a lot of things happening too, man. I mean, there's just today a new show started, right? The Jack Gallagher, Jake Gallagher show, right? Jake Gallagher program, yeah. Yeah. You know, there's a lot of stuff going on and like, I see, you know, Skid Row Studios like being, you know, fucking really big. I mean, it's only like a year, right? It's only been a year. It was a year in January. In January. Yeah. And actually, you did your first podcast like in December or something. Right? You just like a test podcast. Yeah. Everybody come over at your apartment. Me and my friend talking about like smoking weed and shit. Smoking weed and drinking Cisco. Yeah. It's funny. And you really got to take a look at where you started and where you're at right now and like, you got something to be proud of, man. All right. Thanks, man. This is like one of the cooler things I've been involved with. You know, I'm still trying to like take it all in because it's, a lot of shit has happened man. And it's, I don't know how it happened. And it was because of you guys and all the other people that do shows. You know, those are the guys who really are making this thing work because you don't want me talking about like Krabby Joe's every single episode. But I would, I mean, I think, but no, actually you're talking about that. I think you should talk more about stuff and talk about Krabby Joe's and the stuff that you like, you know, just like everybody else does, you know? Yeah. It feels good. It feels good to let it, to let it out. Like, I was having a bad day today and like, just like drinking beers and hanging out with you guys and talking. It's like good. It's therapeutic, you know, and I'm grateful for it. And, yeah, I think, what was I, what was I panicking about today? I mean, things are actually pretty good, right? from a couch. Well, cool, man. Well, we've talked enough and why don't we wrap up the show and this is the part of the show where Dan talks about what's going on this weekend. All right, in LA. Yeah. Well, in a couple weeks, we're going to have a guest in here, Falsetto Teeth. Well, at least Alex Noyce will be here. I'm not exactly sure if he's going to bring the band or somebody else he may play with. But anyway, he's like really good, right? Yeah, he's one of my favorite musicians in all the city. He's, he's, he's an awesome guitarist and one of the tightest bands I've ever seen. But anyway, Falsetto Teeth will be playing at Paris Bass, which our friend Sean Carnage is, uh, venue. Uh, actually, he just runs Monday nights there, I guess. But anyway, that's, uh, I want to say 322 North Glendale Boulevard in Echo Park. So check it out. Uh, they go on 4th. So, uh, yeah, you'll probably catch me there if I'm not doing anything. uh, Saturday, if you go to the Mez Bar, this is over in downtown here. I'm, I'm, look up the Mez Bar. That's, uh, M-E-Z-Z. It's at the Alexandria Hotel. At the Alexandria Hotel. That's where that's at. Fifth and Spring. Fifth and Spring. That's not too far from here. Right above, uh, down and up. Yeah, exactly. That, that was from, uh, where the old spot was. Anyway, Bat Wings, Cat Wings is going to entertain you on Saturday. And then, uh, Sunday, uh, our, uh, buddy Princess Frank has his, uh, Sunday, uh, residency at Thirsty Crow over on Sunset across from, uh, uh, what the hell bar is that? Uh, Silver Lake Lounge. Yeah. But anyway, uh, so he'll be there during the day at like one o'clock. And then, uh, later that day, I'm going to be, uh, drinking beer, watching the Super Bowl or something. And then, uh, Monday, uh, I don't know what's going on Monday. I don't know. What's on TV on Monday? I don't watch TV anymore. Uh, I think, uh, How I Met Your Mother is on at eight o'clock. I think, I think, uh, Jen Rice likes that, uh, show. If I'm not mistaken. You know what? One thing I wanted to mention, coming up on Saturday, there's going to be something really cool. It's, uh, the, the Cacophony Society Zone Show. And it's going to be in, uh, Santa Ana. And they, uh, it's, I don't know if you guys know about the Cacophony Society, but they're kind of like, Take the five south. They are, um, like culture jammers. And they are, like, uh, different, different kind of like guerrilla artists. And stuff like they'll do like these, these crazy, like culture jammy kind of things. You know what I mean? Like, uh, crazy fucking shit that'll make you think and stuff. And, uh, they're having, uh, let me read this thing. It says the Cacophony Society Zone shows a retrospective look at the Cacophony, Cacophony Society, the national collective of guerrilla artists, Dada pranksters, and various eccentric, eccentrics pursuing experiences beyond the mainstream. I'm so drunk right now. That's all I'm going to read, but it's, uh, going on on Saturday. It's the Cacophony Society Zone show.
