Speaker 3: Fun fact, I was working as a waitress.
Speaker 2: The word broadcasting, oh is from the mid eighteenth century
Speaker 2: agricultural community. It is a term that means wide scattering
Speaker 2: of seeds. It did not become a term related to
Speaker 2: radio until the twentieth century, when the first radio broadcasts
Speaker 2: were created. Like with broadcast sewing, radio broadcasting also involves
Speaker 2: a large scattering of radio waves, songs, and entertainment, hence
Speaker 2: applying that farming agricultural term to the world of radio.
Speaker 2: I didn't see Sam Boney there. He was banging the
Speaker 2: drum slowly, banging the drums lowly.
Speaker 3: It's time for quick hits. F you kates quick hits.
Speaker 1: I make it quick, y'all.
Speaker 3: Yeah.
Speaker 2: The Chargers have parted ways with Greg Roman. Matt's lament
Speaker 2: was last hour. I thought I better get f and
Speaker 2: fired Man.
Speaker 3: Roman was hired by Harbaugh when he arrived in LA
Speaker 3: I had of the twenty twenty fourth season.
Speaker 2: Remember they had the dual RVs down in Huntington Beach,
Speaker 2: one right next to each other and.
Speaker 3: Now he blew up the other guy's RV also worked.
Speaker 2: That's how he informed that he was you know, my
Speaker 2: RV was right here?
Speaker 3: Have we blown up an RV down there by the water?
Speaker 3: Harball'sc with the Niners from twenty eleven to twenty fourteen.
Speaker 3: So Roman is the only OC Harbaugh has worked with
Speaker 3: in the NFL. Longtime partnership has come to an end,
Speaker 3: and Jim will now have to search for his replacement.
Speaker 2: I could see Mike McDaniel. I feel like him and
Speaker 2: coach Harve's are a little tiny guy. Yeah, very similar
Speaker 2: in the way they approach football. I just it's almost
Speaker 2: like looking in a mirror, you know when you see
Speaker 2: those guys, little guy with the capri pants and the.
Speaker 3: Drug dealer thing. Oh not the guy that was a Denver.
Speaker 2: No, the head coach of Miami.
Speaker 3: That guy.
Speaker 2: That guy.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I know, I don't see what uh. For the
Speaker 3: fourth time since nineteen sixty nine, the Steelers got to
Speaker 3: look for a new coach and Chuck Knowle is not available.
Speaker 3: Long time go do you know? Mike Tomlin has agreed
Speaker 3: to step down hi his post in Pittsburgh, signaling an
Speaker 3: end of a nineteen year run in the Iron City
Speaker 3: as the longest tenured coach in the league. Some have
Speaker 3: gotten a hold of Dave Damashack Shipwrecked the Big Show.
Speaker 3: They are talking, oh shipwreck and Damasheta. It's the same guy.
Speaker 3: The Rams are getting ready for their divisional round matchup
Speaker 3: against the Bears on Sunday. Yeah there is that's in Chicago.
Speaker 3: The Rams are a three and a half point road favorite.
Speaker 2: Hey, they were four and a half points now, there's
Speaker 2: some money coming in on the Bears. It's top three
Speaker 2: and a half.
Speaker 3: Kl have been the Bears, Matt. The Lakers are in
Speaker 3: a tailspin. Tell you hate to see it. I think
Speaker 3: the Lakers can win it.
Speaker 2: Congratulations to Steve Hartman and duck it into the Southern
Speaker 2: California Sports Broadcasters Hall of Fame. Next year, when they
Speaker 2: print the program on pink colored construction paper, the pixelated
Speaker 2: image of him next to Mason and Ireland will look

Speaker 2: we'd never you invite us, you call us, you hound us,
Speaker 2: and you ask us to come. This is what you

Speaker 3: groin areas aggravated, the aggregation between the thigh and the bruin.
Speaker 3: The Lakers are back at it tonight. They host the
Speaker 3: Atlanta Hawks.
Speaker 2: No rest for the weary.
Speaker 3: The Hawks come screeching in six and oh on the
Speaker 3: West Coast this year, and they're tired of the lies
Speaker 3: the Lakers. Lebron's bringing them down.
Speaker 2: Lebron's bringing them down. The vandalorian is bringing them down.
Speaker 2: Why do you call him that?
Speaker 3: It's all because of Lebron. This team was fine before
Speaker 3: Lebron showed up, and then everybody got ruined. And then
Speaker 3: the stupid podcast started with Rich Paul and he started
Speaker 3: planting the various seeds about guys that people love, like
Speaker 3: Austin Reeves. Oh yeah, that's bad.
Speaker 2: Well, guess what game Lebron's gonna have a patch on
Speaker 2: his uniform, a patch that's a Lebron patch. I'm wearing
Speaker 2: a patch every single game for the remainder of the season.
Speaker 2: Adam to honor me. Excuse me, yeah me, It's gonna
Speaker 2: honor me. And then that patch is gonna come off
Speaker 2: and I'm gonna send it to a trading card company,
Speaker 2: and they're gonna put it in a pack. And when
Speaker 2: you break packs or crack packs or whatever they call it,
Speaker 2: someone's gonna get lucky and they're gonna get my patch.
Speaker 2: And that's what I'm doing for the remainder of the
Speaker 2: season is I have sabotaged. I'm a saboteur. Insufferable. The
Speaker 2: Clippers are sixteen and twenty three. They're red hot though.
Speaker 2: Oh you saw Carlo today, Oh the bounce in his step.

Speaker 2: the Year, Dodger Talk featuring Night Human Bean David Vassa
Speaker 2: tonight at seven pm. Joining us now on your Southern
Speaker 2: California Toyoa Dealers Celebrity Hotline. A man that knows what
Speaker 2: it's like to pull the trigger and have the trigger
Speaker 2: pulled in the crazy world of the NFL.
Speaker 3: Chrisy Wall in the NFL, riding the ups and downs,
Speaker 3: the hills and gullies on the train track. It is
Speaker 3: Tom Telesco, Serious XM now having a good time jumping
Speaker 3: up in the media. One day he may jump back
Speaker 3: in the fire, for he is a proven winner and
Speaker 3: a man that knows what he's doing when it comes
Speaker 3: to building a roster. But we have a lot to discuss,
Speaker 3: and he's an old friend, the great Tom to Leusco
Speaker 3: tortoes with Tom on a Tuesday once again on the
Speaker 3: Petrols and Money Show. What's cracking Tom? How are you?
Speaker 4: I love that intro that I've pulled the trigger. I've
Speaker 4: also had the trigger pulled on me. That was pretty good.
Speaker 3: Well, you know with strikes and gunns, you know, some
Speaker 3: day you eat the bear and some day the bear
Speaker 3: eats you. And speaking of that, so they say, yeah,
Speaker 3: everybody says.
Speaker 2: That some day you have bear for dinner, some days
Speaker 2: the bear has you for dinner.
Speaker 3: Tell us Tom, how surprised were you by the Chargers
Speaker 3: performance out in New England? Some people that I know
Speaker 3: thought they matched up pretty well.
Speaker 4: Turns out, oh, I was really surprised, and and obviously
Speaker 4: they were. Through this whole year on offense, they've had
Speaker 4: to deal with a lot of adversity. Like everybody knows.
Speaker 4: You know that they lost both their starting tackles, but
Speaker 4: they just weren't starting tackles. They're all pro football type tackles. Now,
Speaker 4: what I probably missed you know, I think having Omary
Speaker 4: and Hampton out with injury, I think that affected him
Speaker 4: a lot more than people talked about.
Speaker 3: He's a big part of.
Speaker 4: How they run that offense. But I went to the
Speaker 4: point how Justin just didn't play well, and you know
Speaker 4: it happens from time to time, doesn't have very often
Speaker 4: with him. But looking at that game, I didn't think
Speaker 4: Drake May played great either. I mean, Drake May took
Speaker 4: five sacks at interception, he put two balls in the ground,
Speaker 4: but he made a big throw to Hunter Henry, and
Speaker 4: he just consistently took checkdowns. And there's a big difference
Speaker 4: when May was checking it down to Remindre Stevenson and
Speaker 4: Treviaon Henderson versus Justin checking it down to Tyger Fisk.
Speaker 4: So just what they weren't going the same type of
Speaker 4: easy throws, the same type of chunkyards on an easy throw.
Speaker 4: So but I was a probably the defense played very
Speaker 4: well like the head all year and offensively, it just
Speaker 4: wasn't their day and it was it was hard to watch,
Speaker 4: but that's the nature of the playoffs. So these games
Speaker 4: they get bigger and bigger as you move, as you
Speaker 4: move through and you know, whatever your weakness is it
Speaker 4: tends to get magnified in the playoffs, and that's kind
Speaker 4: of what happened to the Chargers.
Speaker 2: How hard is it tom to try to figure out
Speaker 2: the answers to those questions in game? You know, you
Speaker 2: go into the half, it's six to three, and it
Speaker 2: felt like the Patriots figured it out right. They kind of,
Speaker 2: you know, got some easy buttons for Drake May, they
Speaker 2: found some explosives, and it felt like the Chargers were
Speaker 2: kind of trying to do the same things they were
Speaker 2: doing in the first half. Is it just too hard
Speaker 2: to get out of what you thought you were going
Speaker 2: to be able to do if you're not able to
Speaker 2: or what goes into trying to overcome some of those obstacles.
Speaker 4: No, I mean typically even before you get into the game,
Speaker 4: you have your game plan, but you also have some
Speaker 4: different plans D, B, C and D depending on what
Speaker 4: your opponent's going to do. And then once you're in game,
Speaker 4: you know halftime that you guys know halftimes are short.
Speaker 4: I mean it's a twelve minute halftime, and you know
Speaker 4: a couple of things are just getting to the locker
Speaker 4: room and getting back out again. So a lot of
Speaker 4: the adjustments will happen in between series. I mean they
Speaker 4: have they have the still photos or the video on
Speaker 4: the sideline on the iPads, and they can make adjustments
Speaker 4: in real time. But also the defense of making adjustments
Speaker 4: the same time. So it's a it's a cat and
Speaker 4: mouse game throughout the whole game, and it just seemed
Speaker 4: like that the Chargers they just couldn't get in front
Speaker 4: of it. And look, you know Greg, Greg Roman and
Speaker 4: you full disclosure, he was a college teammate of mine
Speaker 4: will we both started with the Carolina Panthers the same
Speaker 4: year in nineteen ninety five. And his work ethic, attention
Speaker 4: to detail is outstanding, it really is. I really I
Speaker 4: gave a lot of credit for what he was able
Speaker 4: to do this year with some of the issues that
Speaker 4: had on offense. Justin had a tremendous year until the
Speaker 4: last game. But such as life in the NFL, they
Speaker 4: the emotions of the past game, you know, kind of
Speaker 4: crop up and you move on.
Speaker 2: So you know, with that, as you know, kind of
Speaker 2: a pretext for this question what do you make of what?
Speaker 2: And he's a guy that you know, he was on
Speaker 2: your team. Robert Splane what he said after the game that.
Speaker 2: I don't know if you saw it, but he said
Speaker 2: he was talking to some Charger players after and they
Speaker 2: said they didn't know what the heck they were looking at,
Speaker 2: that they couldn't figure the coverages out. Is that something
Speaker 2: that sounds right to you? And if that's the case,
Speaker 2: kind of what would go into that happening in a
Speaker 2: game of that magnitude.
Speaker 4: Honestly, it kind of seems like your typical postgame banter
Speaker 4: that you know may have been taken a little bit
Speaker 4: out of context.
Speaker 3: I don't know.
Speaker 4: I haven't been able to see the coaches copy yet
Speaker 4: the All twenty two, so you know, on TV it's
Speaker 4: hard to see the routes develop and see where if
Speaker 4: there was separation, if there were players coming open. I
Speaker 4: just know from their offense, I mean, running back to
Speaker 4: average less than three ars per carry, and and for
Speaker 4: what with the Charges have done this year and how
Speaker 4: they run their offense, it's hard to get moving when
Speaker 4: when you can't get anything going in the run game.
Speaker 4: There were some clean pockets in the first half, but
Speaker 4: you know, Justin is normally decisive, but it just didn't
Speaker 4: seem like you had anywhere to get with the ball.
Speaker 4: And then the second half, it just seemed like the
Speaker 4: Patriots who didn't really I didn't think pressure well in
Speaker 4: the first half of the second half. They kind of
Speaker 4: saw blooding the water and they brought it from everywhere,
Speaker 4: and maybe they brought some plittes that the charger had
Speaker 4: not seen before at their opportune time, and you saw
Speaker 4: the result.
Speaker 3: The one and only Tom to leasco is our guest.
Speaker 3: You were in Las Vegas, you had a great draft
Speaker 3: in twenty twenty four, they've turned it over again at
Speaker 3: head coach. What do they need? Do they need a
Speaker 3: young guy? Did they need like an old angry guy
Speaker 3: like Kubiak? Do they need like one of these offensive
Speaker 3: guys that looks really quoft? You know, like, what what
Speaker 3: do you think?
Speaker 2: I like the hair?
Speaker 3: I'm at Lafleur, Yeah, Lafloor, you know, yeah, quaft, offensive guy.
Speaker 4: They just need some stability, that's the biggest thing. I
Speaker 4: thought that's what Peeka was going to bring them last year.
Speaker 4: But as you guys could see, like it just didn't
Speaker 4: click this year, and I could see you hate to
Speaker 4: keep making these moves.
Speaker 3: The one and done so you don't want to see that.
Speaker 4: But I think everyone can see it. Just didn't click
Speaker 4: this year. So at this point, but they have the
Speaker 4: first pick in the draft, they're going to take a quarterback,
Speaker 4: so they're finally going to have a quarterback to build around,
Speaker 4: which they haven't had really since Derek Carr. So they
Speaker 4: have that piece and now it's just about getting some
Speaker 4: stability at the top from the head coach. And it
Speaker 4: doesn't matter if it's offense, defense or special teams to me,
Speaker 4: because there are some really good resources there both stadium wise,
Speaker 4: practice facility, incredible fan base, mean worldwide fan base, and
Speaker 4: there's a lot of good people in the building. I
Speaker 4: mean I know it firsthand because you're only as good
Speaker 4: as the people you work with. So there's support staffs
Speaker 4: with training and video and communications and equipment scouting. They're excellent.
Speaker 4: Just have to find that stability at the top, and
Speaker 4: I think they'll go through the I bet they'll be
Speaker 4: much more in the same page this year they kind
Speaker 4: of went through last year. I've been a first time GM.
Speaker 4: Sometimes things are moving real fast and you feel like
Speaker 4: you have to get a head coach hired as quickly
Speaker 4: as possible because you need to get all the assistants hired,
Speaker 4: and you feel like the seats are gonna fill. But
Speaker 4: if you take your time, go through your process what
Speaker 4: they're doing right now, you get the right person the
Speaker 4: top and hopefully just have the stability there.
Speaker 2: So you've you know, you know what it looks like
Speaker 2: at the top of the draft when it's a quarterback
Speaker 2: draft and it's Joe Burrow and Tua and Justin Herbert
Speaker 2: or you know, some years it's Christian Ponder and you know,
Speaker 2: what do you make of this year they have the
Speaker 2: number one pick. I know you haven't probably had a
Speaker 2: chance to dig too deep into Fernando Mendoz or Dante
Speaker 2: more if he decides to come out, But what do
Speaker 2: you make of their options at that position? And what
Speaker 2: kind of quarterback draft we have coming up here in
Speaker 2: a couple months.
Speaker 4: Yeah, I mean it's light. I mean you basically mentioned
Speaker 4: the two guys would be the top for me. You know,
Speaker 4: Ty Simpson I think has some potential. I wouldn't see
Speaker 4: him up there with those two guys yet, But yeah,
Speaker 4: I mean the quarterback position, if you need a quarterback,
Speaker 4: that's why they get pushed up in the draft because
Speaker 4: if you don't draft one, very rarely is the starter
Speaker 4: come out and fregency that is a winning starter that
Speaker 4: you can actually acquire, so you're an a half to draft them,
Speaker 4: So yes, they do get a little bit pushed up.
Speaker 4: I think Mendoza is definitely an NFL starter. I mean,
Speaker 4: as everyone saw, he looked great the other night, made
Speaker 4: some just big time accuracy pinpoint throws and has all
Speaker 4: the intelligibles you're looking for. And I think Dante Moore
Speaker 4: is really talented. But you also saw the difference between
Speaker 4: Mendoza being a three year starter essentially and Dante Moore
Speaker 4: being a one year starter and being nineteen years old,
Speaker 4: and he has an incredible skill, but you see that
Speaker 4: you may need a little bit more time to develop.
Speaker 4: So we'll see if he stays in school, if he
Speaker 4: declares for the draft. But those guys are really, you know,
Speaker 4: at the top of the draft, and then it's very
Speaker 4: thin after that, so and there's gonna be more teams
Speaker 4: that need quarterbacks, and they are actually quarterbacks available, so
Speaker 4: after the first pick, you know the who the next
Speaker 4: quarterback is. I would expect a lot of activity for
Speaker 4: teams to try and trade up and get somebody more.
Speaker 3: Aging like the Cheese and the Cheese It commercials for
Speaker 3: Dante More. Our friend Tom tellasco joins us. You know,
Speaker 3: the NFL as old, Jerry Glanville said, stood for not
Speaker 3: for long, but for some guys, they're in the same
Speaker 3: spot for a long time. You knew something about longevity
Speaker 3: with the Chargers, Mike Tomlin Jim John Harbaugh, of course
Speaker 3: now both available. Tomlin stepped down to after nineteen years.
Speaker 3: Harball was in Baltimore for eighteen. How hard is it
Speaker 3: for that guy to get a job somewhere else after
Speaker 3: he's known something so stable for so long in a
Speaker 3: league that's really not that way, No, not at all.
Speaker 4: I mean really, for both of them, it's an end
Speaker 4: of an era, and not just for Pittsburgh and for Baltimore,
Speaker 4: but just for head coaching in general, because I don't
Speaker 4: think we're going to ever see another head coach spend,
Speaker 4: you know, nineteen eighteen straight years with the same team.
Speaker 3: As good as Sean McVay is.
Speaker 4: You know, at some point, you know you kind of
Speaker 4: need a reset or recharge. The coaching is, I mean,
Speaker 4: it's a high pressurized business. Even when you're winning at
Speaker 4: a consistent level. You know, mc va could coach forever,
Speaker 4: but the stay in nineteen years with one team the
Speaker 4: way Tomlin did, I just think it's really hard to
Speaker 4: do it. I don't think we're gonna see that ever again.
Speaker 4: So but with those two guys went all the great
Speaker 4: coaches with uh puting Andy Reid and McVeigh, Tomlin Harbaugh.
Speaker 4: Like their teams, they always had an identity, and that's
Speaker 4: the number one thing you have to establish. So we've
Speaker 4: got two big time jobs open. You know, Pittsburgh obviously
Speaker 4: that job doesn't come open very often. I'm kind of
Speaker 4: curious what route they go. You know, Mike McCarthy is
Speaker 4: mister Pittsburgh. I'd be really interesting guy there. And but
Speaker 4: you know, even though they haven't done a lot of
Speaker 4: head coach searches, they typically hire young assistants from other teams,
Speaker 4: like I mean essentially just Chuck no, Bill Kawer and
Speaker 4: Mike Tomlin. So all three of those guys were coordinators
Speaker 4: and a younger coaches when they were with their prior teams.
Speaker 4: So we'll see which direct they go. But having nine
Speaker 4: spots right now in the NFL, it's just incredible to
Speaker 4: have this many opening head coaching jobs available. Or see
Speaker 4: what these play out.
Speaker 2: Last thing for you, Tom, the Rams, they faced down
Speaker 2: potential real ugly exit from the postseason, being a double
Speaker 2: digit favorite and maybe losing to Carolina. Matthew Stafford Rallies
Speaker 2: gets the win in your experience, like how I don't
Speaker 2: want to say valuable, but is there something to that
Speaker 2: when in an early round you're able to kind of
Speaker 2: overcome what looks to be an obstacle that really could
Speaker 2: have crushed what looks to be a promising path for
Speaker 2: them to get back to the super Bowl. And when
Speaker 2: you look at who's left, kind of what do you
Speaker 2: make of who's in front of them?
Speaker 4: I totally saw that against Carolina. I mean that it
Speaker 4: was a great environment in Carolina. It hadn't been in the
Speaker 4: playoffs in a long time.
Speaker 3: The stadium was loud.
Speaker 4: Carolina really has done a lot with a little there.
Speaker 4: Really impressed with Dave Canals and what he's done with
Speaker 4: the Panthers. But just way you said, I really felt
Speaker 4: like the Rams, having a veteran head coach, a veteran quarterback,
Speaker 4: really well coached defense. They just handled the situation. That
Speaker 4: handled it appropriately and it wasn't easy because they still
Speaker 4: have that you know, that's special teams concerned. The margins
Speaker 4: gets so thin in the playoffs and the farther advance
Speaker 4: they get thinner and thinner. So but they overcame it.
Speaker 4: And a lot of it's because of the quarterback and
Speaker 4: the head coach. But I like their chances this year.
Speaker 4: I mean not, you know, even taking Stafford on of it.
Speaker 4: I mean, they've got two running backs like a two
Speaker 4: headed monster with White with Williams a Korum. I love
Speaker 4: how they use Pooka Nakua in the running game, almost
Speaker 4: like the Delaware wing t wing back, so they could
Speaker 4: use them like that. And then obviously he's getting ten
Speaker 4: eleven twelve balls a game, and between Devonte Adams and
Speaker 4: then the two tight ends, they have a lot of
Speaker 4: different ways to go on offense. And then I love
Speaker 4: Chris Shula and what they're doing on defense. So to me,
Speaker 4: they're they're they're definitely I have a chance to win
Speaker 4: a championship with this team. But yeah, they had to
Speaker 4: get through that first game, but I think their experience
Speaker 4: really pulled them through.
Speaker 3: The one and only Tom to LESCo, our friend. You
Speaker 3: can listen to them on Serious XM NFL Radio for
Speaker 3: the NFL is this area of expertise. That and of
Speaker 3: course Corona del mar C Kings Football. We appreciate your

Speaker 3: human pin hours ago. David Vsse went up there like
Speaker 3: a human being that accepted his wart. It's a great
Speaker 3: moment in sports history.
Speaker 2: We are on the way, were not on the freeway
Speaker 2: of life. Oh stop, and there are many exits.
Speaker 3: We are live until seven. We're almost done.
Speaker 2: And I got off at that exit, and there were
Speaker 2: people waiting to show me the way.
Speaker 3: Like we still act like the twenty year old people
Speaker 3: in the audience, and it's wrongs.
Speaker 2: But that's because no one young has coming behind.
Speaker 3: That's not true.
Speaker 2: Carlo was that was it?
Speaker 3: What about Chris Harry, he's a young guy.
Speaker 2: Saw him he is, but he was not nominated for anything.
Speaker 2: I think he was there to sport as bosson Hill.
Speaker 3: I saw it. I saw Jim, he saw brother Jim.
Speaker 2: He's a little longer the time I would say we
Speaker 2: were still in the ninetieth percentile of youth. I still believe, well,
Speaker 2: we act old as we are, we act like we
Speaker 2: sure do.
Speaker 3: Dodger Talk coming up with the talk show host of
Speaker 3: the Year David Fass and he's going to deliver that

Speaker 3: to back World Series champion Dodgers. But Tim Kates is
Speaker 3: not able to ride that freedom train no to get
Speaker 3: an award.
Speaker 2: Unfortunately, the train did not stop at his station, did
Speaker 2: not just drove right straight. Toss had delivered the Award
Speaker 2: to a real human being. Yes, all right, Matt, your
Speaker 2: beautiful speech from Stephen Nelson thanking Dwayne and Colin and
Speaker 2: acknowledging tc. You know that I am incredibly fortunate and lucky.
Speaker 2: I believe he called it one hundred and ten percent
Speaker 2: luck to be able to call these Dodger game. He
Speaker 2: really handled them that absolutely, like a true professional.
Speaker 3: From back to back to back against the wall too,
Speaker 3: back to back, like a human being. Why do you
Speaker 3: have bed Matt celebrating this guy. We've done it before
Speaker 3: and it's well, it's an interesting story. Horatio Alger from Chelsea,
Speaker 3: mass Matt, you were just in Massachusetts. A forgettable trip
Speaker 3: for you to New England.
Speaker 2: I'll tell you that was except the civil disobedience at
Speaker 2: the State House on Sunday morning. You know that made
Speaker 2: it worth it.
Speaker 3: Close to the New England Puritan aristocracy. One hundred and
Speaker 3: ninety three years old today, coming up in the nineteenth century,
Speaker 3: Horatio Alger was a descendant of minute men and a
Speaker 3: guy at the Constitutional Convention. It's a difficult boy with asthma.
Speaker 3: I can relate with that. That's where my relation to
Speaker 3: him stops. He went to Harvard thrived started writing, became
Speaker 3: a Unitarian pastor just like his father as well, but
Speaker 3: he was kicked out for reports that he was getting
Speaker 3: too familiar with the young people, the boys. He did
Speaker 3: admit that he had been imprudent with the boys, and
Speaker 3: his father got involved. His father promised that his son
Speaker 3: would never seek a church post ever again, and the
Speaker 3: church said, okay, we'll leave him alone. We won't tarn
Speaker 3: featherhum or, stone him to death or whatever it is
Speaker 3: we do bad thing to pediasses. So he was off
Speaker 3: to New York. There he did what Youwett would do.
Speaker 2: If you were a pediaste.
Speaker 3: He studied street boys. Ah yeah, and he wrote the
Speaker 3: Rags to Richest masterpiece about a poor boot black and
Speaker 3: his rise to middle class responsibility. That book's name Ragged Dick.
Speaker 3: Excuse it's not funny.
Speaker 2: Next time I go on one of these podcasts that
Speaker 2: asks you ask you your favorite books to a ragged.
Speaker 3: Dick by Peter Ass Horatio.
Speaker 2: Oucher recommend Ragged Dick.
Speaker 3: Many many books followed Matt. Most of his works after
Speaker 3: that followed the same exact pattern. Honest, hard working boy,
Speaker 3: a noble stranger, a snob, and an evil, greedy squire
Speaker 3: many titles for you, Matt if you want to play
Speaker 3: a little album, I mean, if.
Speaker 2: You already wasted.
Speaker 3: Ragged Dick, I told you the same theme in every book,
Speaker 3: and this guy wrote so many. But we've done this before,
Speaker 3: but I never looked into.
Speaker 2: Like maybe they should have let him time to the post.
Speaker 3: His gigantic bibliography is unbelievable. Jed the Poorhouse Boy. I
Speaker 3: think this one we can all relate with. The disagreeable woman.
Speaker 2: No, not me, not in my life.
Speaker 3: Like a human being. Ad the street boy out West.
Speaker 2: That's the David Basset story. And then I got off
Speaker 2: the freeway at another exit.
Speaker 3: Tattered Tom, the story of a street Arab luck and pluck.
Speaker 2: He has gone and I have sent him? What misdirection?
Speaker 2: The ragged How's the ragged Dick in me?
Speaker 3: He was gay? He died from asthma at his sister's
Speaker 3: house in eighteen ninety nine at the age of sixty seven.
Speaker 3: His books have come out again in twenty fifteen because
Speaker 3: being a better ass. I guess it's as bad as he's.
Speaker 2: A different time. Ragged twenty fifteen.
Speaker 3: Ragged Ditch Chickup return Up the Day.
Speaker 2: Uh, you're a live guy, really just an opportunity to
Speaker 2: want to play one of our all time favorite songs.
Speaker 2: Happy Birthday to Wayne Michael Coin, one of the Wayne
Speaker 2: Coin hit the post. There Oh, one of the most brilliant, creative,
Speaker 2: visionary musicians you could ever come across. If you have
Speaker 2: not been to a flaming lip show, to yourself the
Speaker 2: favor and get to one. It is different, put on
Speaker 2: charge of power, no doubt, different than anything you've ever seen.
Speaker 2: He is sixty five today, so I don't know how
Speaker 2: much longer he's gonna be doing it. The music is incredible,
Speaker 2: the show is incomparable. Wayne is freaking cool man born,
Speaker 2: real human being. He's a real born in Pittsburgh, raised
Speaker 2: in Oklahoma City. Loves his hometown so much that he
Speaker 2: bought a house in one of the most rundown areas
Speaker 2: of town, then bought another, and another, and another and here.
Speaker 2: Thirty years later, he essentially created the Oklahoma City Arts District.
Speaker 2: While he was in high school, he worked at Long
Speaker 2: John Silvers all right, p Long John Silvers fast food
Speaker 2: fish store was robbed.
Speaker 3: Like when they had like a moat that you had
Speaker 3: to walk over the bridge to get into the store.
Speaker 2: You might die or you might get hushpuppies. Coin was
Speaker 2: held at gunpoint. He was told he was going to
Speaker 2: be killed if someone didn't open the safe. Nobody dare
Speaker 2: knew how to open the safe at Long Johns at
Speaker 2: Long John Silvers. Thankfully, the robbers fled, had an epiphany,
Speaker 2: decided to chase his dreams, started a band with his brother.
Speaker 2: Wayne was on guitar, brother lead vocals. They started Flaming Lips.
Speaker 2: Mark left, Wayne took over as frontman. He is their
Speaker 2: main songwriter. The name Origin is as good as anything
Speaker 2: you've ever heard. It was a reference to a high
Speaker 2: school rumor they remembered and they will always remember, about
Speaker 2: a classmate getting genital herpes after she had a dude
Speaker 2: performing oral exercises down on her while he had active
Speaker 2: cold source and Wayne said quote one night over a
Speaker 2: pack of Schlitz and some left handed cigarettes. We remembered
Speaker 2: and joked how he used to say they both had
Speaker 2: Flaming Lips and it just stuck. First release here it
Speaker 2: is came out in eighty six, but I know the
Speaker 2: two albums independently over the next couple of years. Nineteen ninety,
Speaker 2: Warner Brothers had an A and R guy at the
Speaker 2: American Legion Hall in Norman, Oklahoma. They almost burned the
Speaker 2: place down with their pyrotechnics. They were signed immediately. First
Speaker 2: major label released ninety one ninety three transmissions from the
Speaker 2: satellite heart Had She Don't Use Jelly? Played it on
Speaker 2: K Rock, took off and made their way through the
Speaker 2: late night shows. The TV circuit opened for the Red
Speaker 2: Hot Chili Peppers, but, of course, being Wayne and the
Speaker 2: Flaming Lips, they put out two experimental, ethereal sounding albums
Speaker 2: that did not match up to the Kitchie She Don't
Speaker 2: Use Jelly. So about a half decade of dormancy after
Speaker 2: their big hit until Soft Bullets went away for five
Speaker 2: years in ninety nine, Had Do You Realize?
Speaker 1: That?
Speaker 2: Might have been the best song of the year, best
Speaker 2: album of the year. Very pet soundsey is what it
Speaker 2: was being compared to.
Speaker 3: I far in California.
Speaker 2: Their show at south By Southwest was the stuff of legend.
Speaker 2: I happened to be there. They passed out headphones to
Speaker 2: everybody and you watched their concert with headphones on. It
Speaker 2: was wild man, but a time to be in love.
Speaker 3: Wow. I was somewhere today too. Okay, right, Hey, we're
Speaker 3: gonna be talking about that for years as well. We are.
Speaker 2: They won a Grammy for this What Yoshimi. It's about
Speaker 2: a freedom train. This song was adapted the Mute. The
Speaker 2: album was adapted into a musical. They had put out
Speaker 2: six albums since most recent American Head In twenty twenty.
Speaker 2: They did their Yoshimi Battles Topink Robots album tour last year,
Speaker 2: playing at front to back. He is sixty five, hopefully
Speaker 2: still touring. He has two little boys, a five year
Speaker 2: old and a three year old. Happy sixty fifth, Wayne
Speaker 2: Qui coming up next, Dodg a real human being. He
Speaker 2: treats others like human.
Speaker 3: Being guaranteed, Human guaranteed. David Vasse coming up next tomorrow
Speaker 3: will be on from three to six thirty before the
Speaker 3: Clippers take on to win. Clippers are hot Man, thanks
Speaker 3: for listening.
