1 00:00:01,080 --> 00:00:03,480 Speaker 1: Hey, time travelers, this has head the rhine word co 2 00:00:03,640 --> 00:00:07,440 Speaker 1: creator of Nicki Fixes Time Mix Up. Next, be kind 3 00:00:07,480 --> 00:00:10,200 Speaker 1: and rewind to the nineties for a most epic episode 4 00:00:10,200 --> 00:00:13,240 Speaker 1: of Nicki Fix. But first, a quick word from our sponsor, 5 00:00:18,360 --> 00:00:21,720 Speaker 1: Iron Horn's Epic Productions, and I Heart Radio present Nikki 6 00:00:21,800 --> 00:00:38,000 Speaker 1: Fixes Time mix ah ah ah m hm, it was 7 00:00:38,080 --> 00:00:45,600 Speaker 1: all a dream. Where up magazine? Salt and puff heavy 8 00:00:45,720 --> 00:00:52,520 Speaker 1: d the magazine. This can't be real. It's a joke. 9 00:00:53,159 --> 00:01:05,520 Speaker 1: Mm hmm, right I. I just had the strangest nightmare. 10 00:01:06,400 --> 00:01:09,000 Speaker 1: We got sucked into a portal that sent us back 11 00:01:09,000 --> 00:01:13,640 Speaker 1: in time to and then we got chased by mop 12 00:01:13,720 --> 00:01:19,080 Speaker 1: wielding doors. And where are we? We're in the storage 13 00:01:19,120 --> 00:01:22,240 Speaker 1: room at the rink. And it wasn't a dream, was it? 14 00:01:22,400 --> 00:01:26,920 Speaker 1: Afraid not, Liam, don't scare me like that. How would 15 00:01:26,959 --> 00:01:28,840 Speaker 1: you like to be scared? Not at all. I've got 16 00:01:28,959 --> 00:01:31,280 Speaker 1: enough scary stuff going on in my life right now. 17 00:01:31,680 --> 00:01:34,600 Speaker 1: What are you doing back there prowling around like some 18 00:01:34,680 --> 00:01:38,200 Speaker 1: kind of psycho re stringing the guitar? All the strings 19 00:01:38,200 --> 00:01:40,360 Speaker 1: broke when we time hopped, and we have to be 20 00:01:40,400 --> 00:01:42,920 Speaker 1: ready to meet the moment when the timelines converge to 21 00:01:42,959 --> 00:01:46,120 Speaker 1: open the portal. Again, which is Liam's best guess of 22 00:01:46,200 --> 00:01:51,360 Speaker 1: the situation according to time travel movies. Oh right, Liam 23 00:01:51,440 --> 00:01:56,320 Speaker 1: is the expert. What time is it? Anyway? Late or early? 24 00:01:56,640 --> 00:02:00,640 Speaker 1: I don't really know. Our phones don't work and we're 25 00:02:00,680 --> 00:02:03,320 Speaker 1: in another decade. There's a clock on the wall over there. 26 00:02:03,520 --> 00:02:08,679 Speaker 1: Oh um, what does it say? Um? This is kind 27 00:02:08,720 --> 00:02:12,680 Speaker 1: of embarrassing to admit, but I never learned how to 28 00:02:12,720 --> 00:02:15,600 Speaker 1: tell time on a face clock. What How could you, 29 00:02:16,120 --> 00:02:19,520 Speaker 1: the time travel expert from the University of Nowhere, not 30 00:02:19,720 --> 00:02:24,400 Speaker 1: know how to do that? It's like basic I never 31 00:02:24,480 --> 00:02:30,360 Speaker 1: learned either. Yeah. I'm not gonna lie me neither. So 32 00:02:31,040 --> 00:02:33,960 Speaker 1: how are we going to survive here? Without technology or 33 00:02:34,040 --> 00:02:37,839 Speaker 1: without disrupting the future? Remember, anything we do now could 34 00:02:37,880 --> 00:02:42,320 Speaker 1: cause huge ripple effects. We just have to remember our mission. Okay. 35 00:02:42,680 --> 00:02:46,120 Speaker 1: Convinced Ben to buy the building, which apparently he doesn't 36 00:02:46,160 --> 00:02:49,000 Speaker 1: have the money for. Then two in the guitar up 37 00:02:49,000 --> 00:02:53,480 Speaker 1: and bam portal opens without messing up the future and 38 00:02:53,639 --> 00:02:57,840 Speaker 1: all by the end of the week, no problem. The 39 00:02:57,880 --> 00:03:02,800 Speaker 1: clock is ticking. Liam. If that becomes your catchphrase, I 40 00:03:02,800 --> 00:03:21,320 Speaker 1: will strangle you with those guitar strings. X. Why won't 41 00:03:21,400 --> 00:03:28,720 Speaker 1: this restart come on? That sounds awful. Yeah, I know 42 00:03:29,800 --> 00:03:33,680 Speaker 1: something's not right, but I did find this little metal 43 00:03:33,800 --> 00:03:38,920 Speaker 1: tag on the guitar. Well read it, dummy. I'm sorry. 44 00:03:39,640 --> 00:03:42,640 Speaker 1: I didn't mean to snap at you. I think I'm 45 00:03:42,680 --> 00:03:48,040 Speaker 1: going through social media withdrawal. I am too. If it's 46 00:03:48,160 --> 00:03:51,200 Speaker 1: any comfort, what's the person supposed to do in the morning. 47 00:03:51,240 --> 00:03:53,520 Speaker 1: If you can't check your phone, how do you know 48 00:03:53,560 --> 00:03:59,000 Speaker 1: what's going on? Anyway? The tag says, use only genuine 49 00:03:59,200 --> 00:04:08,600 Speaker 1: time tone strings. Ohning kids, I wondered if you still 50 00:04:08,640 --> 00:04:13,440 Speaker 1: be here or if you transported away to the future. No, look, 51 00:04:13,920 --> 00:04:17,200 Speaker 1: still here. We think we're stuck until we help you 52 00:04:17,240 --> 00:04:22,360 Speaker 1: buy the rink. So still no. But instead I come 53 00:04:22,400 --> 00:04:27,840 Speaker 1: bearing breakfast. Oh thank god, I'm starving. Yes, yes, world 54 00:04:27,880 --> 00:04:31,800 Speaker 1: famous donuts from Sugar Sweets. What sugar sweets? It's the 55 00:04:31,839 --> 00:04:34,960 Speaker 1: doughnuts shot next to the gas station, you know, by 56 00:04:35,000 --> 00:04:40,279 Speaker 1: the old glass bottle factory. It's an old bridge institution. Oh, 57 00:04:40,560 --> 00:04:45,000 Speaker 1: that must be where the Amazon warehouses now Rule number 58 00:04:45,040 --> 00:04:48,320 Speaker 1: one of time travel. Do not tell ben what is 59 00:04:48,560 --> 00:04:51,960 Speaker 1: or isn't in the future. Oh my goodness, are you 60 00:04:52,000 --> 00:04:54,000 Speaker 1: telling me in the future that there was no more 61 00:04:54,000 --> 00:04:57,400 Speaker 1: sugar Sweets and old Bridge? We must respectfully stay quiet 62 00:04:57,480 --> 00:05:00,920 Speaker 1: on any and all subjects pertaining to the future. It's 63 00:05:01,000 --> 00:05:06,599 Speaker 1: for your own protection. How can something like sugar sweets disappear? Oh? Here, 64 00:05:06,920 --> 00:05:10,200 Speaker 1: try one of these jelly filled you'll see too good 65 00:05:10,240 --> 00:05:16,120 Speaker 1: to die. Oh come on, I see you are in 66 00:05:16,160 --> 00:05:24,560 Speaker 1: that cowler. Don't be shy. Hmm. Oh my god, it's 67 00:05:24,560 --> 00:05:32,240 Speaker 1: perfection mm hmm. And then, speaking of not Amazon, can 68 00:05:32,279 --> 00:05:35,599 Speaker 1: we use your internet Internet for we need to find 69 00:05:35,600 --> 00:05:37,400 Speaker 1: a music store so we can find the right kind 70 00:05:37,400 --> 00:05:39,920 Speaker 1: of strings for the guitar. Oh, I built that guitar 71 00:05:40,320 --> 00:05:42,920 Speaker 1: or you know, and in the process of building it 72 00:05:42,960 --> 00:05:46,640 Speaker 1: to work specifically with seven gage strings, this tag says 73 00:05:46,720 --> 00:05:51,320 Speaker 1: only to use time tone strings. That ever heard of them? 74 00:05:51,800 --> 00:05:54,359 Speaker 1: I can't say that I have, And that tag is 75 00:05:54,400 --> 00:05:59,359 Speaker 1: definitely not on my version of the guitar. Well, maybe 76 00:05:59,400 --> 00:06:02,359 Speaker 1: someplace I'm here carries them. He's the internet bull. Just 77 00:06:02,640 --> 00:06:08,400 Speaker 1: google order? And what's a Google? Are you for real? 78 00:06:09,200 --> 00:06:11,760 Speaker 1: Are we in the Stone Ages? There's not even go 79 00:06:12,000 --> 00:06:16,640 Speaker 1: Don't you just try the Yellow Pages? Yellow Pages? Are 80 00:06:16,680 --> 00:06:19,080 Speaker 1: you kidding? You know what I'm talking about? The phone 81 00:06:19,120 --> 00:06:25,400 Speaker 1: book here? Oh yeah, I saw one of these in 82 00:06:25,400 --> 00:06:30,279 Speaker 1: a movie. It's like a Google book. Yeah, exactly. Whatever 83 00:06:30,320 --> 00:06:35,040 Speaker 1: that means, all right, let's see music store, music store, 84 00:06:35,720 --> 00:06:41,039 Speaker 1: music stores. There's a lot of music stores. Oh my gosh, 85 00:06:41,080 --> 00:06:43,640 Speaker 1: there are music stores where you come from. The world 86 00:06:43,800 --> 00:06:47,560 Speaker 1: has changed, Ben, There aren't a lot of things anymore. 87 00:06:48,120 --> 00:06:52,159 Speaker 1: There's just that no details. Look, I have no idea 88 00:06:52,240 --> 00:06:54,320 Speaker 1: what you're saying to me about the future, but it 89 00:06:54,400 --> 00:06:59,200 Speaker 1: does not sound good. Man. There's like twenty places in here. 90 00:07:00,360 --> 00:07:03,160 Speaker 1: I can start making some calls and see if I 91 00:07:03,200 --> 00:07:06,880 Speaker 1: can track down these timetone strings. Great, and Bobby and 92 00:07:06,880 --> 00:07:08,479 Speaker 1: I can look up ways to get you money for 93 00:07:08,520 --> 00:07:11,280 Speaker 1: a down payment on this place. Um, I'm not sure 94 00:07:11,320 --> 00:07:13,720 Speaker 1: you're gonna find that in there. I don't know how 95 00:07:13,800 --> 00:07:16,480 Speaker 1: to find that out, to be honest, this is where 96 00:07:16,520 --> 00:07:20,080 Speaker 1: the internet would be incredibly helpful. You can try. I 97 00:07:20,120 --> 00:07:21,920 Speaker 1: guess there's some of those. A O l c D 98 00:07:22,080 --> 00:07:24,720 Speaker 1: thingis in the garbage, and Leonard brought me. Um, what's 99 00:07:24,760 --> 00:07:27,760 Speaker 1: it called a modem that I don't use? Now? What 100 00:07:28,040 --> 00:07:30,440 Speaker 1: is this? Oh my goodness? Put the l c D 101 00:07:30,640 --> 00:07:33,840 Speaker 1: thing in the computer and plug the modem thing up 102 00:07:33,880 --> 00:07:36,440 Speaker 1: into the phone line. What did you just say? I 103 00:07:36,480 --> 00:07:38,280 Speaker 1: don't know. I don't want anything to do with it. 104 00:07:38,320 --> 00:07:41,440 Speaker 1: I just whatever, all right, I have to get back 105 00:07:41,480 --> 00:07:45,760 Speaker 1: to work. You'll be okay back here, thanks, Ben, and 106 00:07:45,840 --> 00:07:51,720 Speaker 1: take all off my computer when you've done. Okay, okay, okay, 107 00:07:54,640 --> 00:08:02,440 Speaker 1: Where does this go? Yere ah? What is that sound? 108 00:08:02,720 --> 00:08:05,960 Speaker 1: That is the early Internet? I heard it once in 109 00:08:06,000 --> 00:08:11,680 Speaker 1: an old movie about hackers. Hackers, all right, at least 110 00:08:11,680 --> 00:08:19,640 Speaker 1: it connected okay, emergency business funding. And here I thought 111 00:08:19,680 --> 00:08:24,760 Speaker 1: YouTube buffering was bad. This is ridiculous. How could anyone 112 00:08:25,040 --> 00:08:29,320 Speaker 1: ever wait this long for just a web page to load? 113 00:08:30,040 --> 00:08:34,760 Speaker 1: I'm never going to find anything. You can, and you will, 114 00:08:35,080 --> 00:08:38,479 Speaker 1: you know how. I know how because it's our destiny 115 00:08:38,559 --> 00:08:43,199 Speaker 1: to save this rank. You're a problem solver, Bobby. You're 116 00:08:43,240 --> 00:08:46,640 Speaker 1: always thinking of workarounds for tech we don't have, doing 117 00:08:46,720 --> 00:08:49,760 Speaker 1: beats and loops and finding apps so that I can 118 00:08:49,800 --> 00:08:53,440 Speaker 1: sound exactly the way I want. I don't know, Niggie, 119 00:08:53,920 --> 00:08:57,360 Speaker 1: This doesn't exactly feel like destiny to me, doesn't it? 120 00:08:58,080 --> 00:09:00,920 Speaker 1: Think about it? The rink one us to save it 121 00:09:01,280 --> 00:09:04,600 Speaker 1: so it can help us, all of us. It brought 122 00:09:04,679 --> 00:09:07,200 Speaker 1: us here because it knows we have the brains to 123 00:09:07,280 --> 00:09:11,320 Speaker 1: figure this out. Uh, where are you going to the 124 00:09:11,360 --> 00:09:15,280 Speaker 1: one place where all of my thoughts makes sense? The rink? 125 00:09:27,400 --> 00:09:30,240 Speaker 1: Hey can't be out here on the floor right now. 126 00:09:30,400 --> 00:09:34,520 Speaker 1: It's family skate moose. It's okay, I'm on a job here. 127 00:09:34,679 --> 00:09:37,320 Speaker 1: Ben didn't tell me about that. All new hires are 128 00:09:37,320 --> 00:09:40,559 Speaker 1: supposed to go through me. It's a special project off 129 00:09:40,600 --> 00:09:43,199 Speaker 1: the book. How are we ever gonna get any kind 130 00:09:43,240 --> 00:09:45,920 Speaker 1: of workable system here? If Ben always makes these knee 131 00:09:46,000 --> 00:09:49,680 Speaker 1: jerk decisions, there has to be a process. He can't 132 00:09:49,760 --> 00:09:52,600 Speaker 1: just dip into payroll every time you feel sorry for 133 00:09:52,720 --> 00:09:58,079 Speaker 1: some pathetic stray. You're a real charmer, you know that. Leonard. Well, 134 00:09:58,120 --> 00:10:01,200 Speaker 1: I've got news for you. No one remembers who you are. 135 00:10:03,080 --> 00:10:12,520 Speaker 1: What's that supposed to mean? Hey? Wait up, what's your 136 00:10:12,600 --> 00:10:19,200 Speaker 1: name again, Nikki Leonard? Yeah, it's real nice to meet you. Listen, Nicky, 137 00:10:19,440 --> 00:10:22,080 Speaker 1: I'm sorry. Okay, that was a nasty thing for me 138 00:10:22,160 --> 00:10:25,400 Speaker 1: to say. It's just that Ben hired me to help 139 00:10:25,440 --> 00:10:28,160 Speaker 1: me make better business decisions around here, but then he 140 00:10:28,200 --> 00:10:31,160 Speaker 1: ignores me and does whatever he wants. It seems like 141 00:10:31,240 --> 00:10:33,920 Speaker 1: this place is doing pretty well to me. Yeah, that 142 00:10:34,000 --> 00:10:36,040 Speaker 1: it could be doing so much better if he would 143 00:10:36,040 --> 00:10:40,080 Speaker 1: just think Bigger business is all about thinking ahead. You 144 00:10:40,120 --> 00:10:42,640 Speaker 1: need a five year plan, a ten year plan, a 145 00:10:42,679 --> 00:10:45,640 Speaker 1: twenty year plan. You even need a thirty year plan. 146 00:10:45,679 --> 00:10:48,840 Speaker 1: If you want to thrive, well, we agree about that. 147 00:10:49,600 --> 00:10:51,760 Speaker 1: This place could be so much more than it is 148 00:10:52,320 --> 00:10:55,200 Speaker 1: if you'd only care about the future. I'll let you 149 00:10:55,200 --> 00:10:57,480 Speaker 1: in on a secret that Ben hasn't told anyone yet. 150 00:10:58,080 --> 00:11:00,760 Speaker 1: The building is being sold. What He's gonna lose it 151 00:11:00,800 --> 00:11:03,840 Speaker 1: forever if he doesn't buy it right now? This place 152 00:11:03,920 --> 00:11:07,800 Speaker 1: has no future. How much does he need? A quarter 153 00:11:07,880 --> 00:11:12,320 Speaker 1: of a million? A quarter million, and he needs it soon, 154 00:11:12,960 --> 00:11:18,800 Speaker 1: like yesterday. Maybe you could put that business brain of 155 00:11:18,880 --> 00:11:21,360 Speaker 1: years to work and help me figure out a way 156 00:11:21,360 --> 00:11:26,760 Speaker 1: to raise that much cash. A concert. A concert, Yes, 157 00:11:26,960 --> 00:11:30,240 Speaker 1: that's perfect. We could do a benefit and get all 158 00:11:30,280 --> 00:11:33,120 Speaker 1: the local bands involved. Oh, you gotta think bigger than that. 159 00:11:33,160 --> 00:11:35,439 Speaker 1: If you want to get close to that amount of money, 160 00:11:35,760 --> 00:11:39,880 Speaker 1: we need big acts. A famous headliner would be nice. 161 00:11:40,360 --> 00:11:43,840 Speaker 1: Why stop there? Why not a whole festival of famous 162 00:11:43,880 --> 00:11:47,840 Speaker 1: acts like our own Lollapalooza. Yeah, but Ben would never 163 00:11:47,880 --> 00:11:52,920 Speaker 1: go for that.

I'm very busy 268 00:19:50,480 --> 00:19:52,639 Speaker 1: right now, kids, as you can see, but thanks for 269 00:19:52,720 --> 00:19:55,520 Speaker 1: dropping by. Well, where are you going? A very fancy 270 00:19:55,600 --> 00:19:59,040 Speaker 1: restaurant downstairs just for us grown up? Maybe we could 271 00:19:59,359 --> 00:20:01,359 Speaker 1: walk you there. You wouldn't like it. They don't serve 272 00:20:01,520 --> 00:20:04,240 Speaker 1: chicken nuggets and milk shape. If you could just give 273 00:20:04,320 --> 00:20:06,680 Speaker 1: us five minutes of your time. I wish I could, babe, 274 00:20:07,000 --> 00:20:09,399 Speaker 1: but I can't, so I won't. We just want to 275 00:20:09,440 --> 00:20:12,560 Speaker 1: talk with you about partnering up for music festival elevators 276 00:20:12,640 --> 00:20:14,960 Speaker 1: never here when you want it. But you see, this 277 00:20:15,160 --> 00:20:18,399 Speaker 1: isn't just any music festival. This is going to be 278 00:20:18,520 --> 00:20:22,560 Speaker 1: the Woodstock of our generation. And we want to include 279 00:20:22,560 --> 00:20:26,880 Speaker 1: a few of your top acts because Woodstock ninety four 280 00:20:27,080 --> 00:20:30,479 Speaker 1: was a financial embarrassment. In my top acts are all 281 00:20:30,720 --> 00:20:33,560 Speaker 1: very busy making a tremendous amount of money. Sorry, kid, 282 00:20:34,080 --> 00:20:36,520 Speaker 1: nice drive though it's a fundraiser to help save an 283 00:20:36,560 --> 00:20:41,680 Speaker 1: amazing roller rink an institution fundraiser, hard past, this would 284 00:20:41,680 --> 00:20:45,680 Speaker 1: be a generational touch point. I mean, imagine Seattle right 285 00:20:45,720 --> 00:20:49,639 Speaker 1: before it was Seattle. You know that's what we're talking about. 286 00:20:50,760 --> 00:20:54,000 Speaker 1: What's your name again? Kid? Leonard? Well, listen, Leonard, we 287 00:20:54,119 --> 00:20:56,800 Speaker 1: produce big time bands here, Okay. We don't partner with 288 00:20:56,920 --> 00:21:00,879 Speaker 1: festivals or Derby's or corn fars or pig contests. But 289 00:21:01,320 --> 00:21:04,200 Speaker 1: that's not what I you got, Moxie kid. I'll grant 290 00:21:04,240 --> 00:21:06,280 Speaker 1: you that. So let me give you a piece of advice. 291 00:21:07,119 --> 00:21:10,080 Speaker 1: Never base a meeting around how the other person can 292 00:21:10,200 --> 00:21:14,680 Speaker 1: help you. No one's here to help you. Ever, how 293 00:21:14,800 --> 00:21:17,560 Speaker 1: can you help me? That's all I care about, and 294 00:21:17,680 --> 00:21:19,680 Speaker 1: you can't. So this whole thing was a big waste 295 00:21:19,720 --> 00:21:22,520 Speaker 1: of my time. Now get your foot out of the door, 296 00:21:23,040 --> 00:21:39,119 Speaker 1: please you, okay, Leonard? All right, Well what's our next move? Nothing? 297 00:21:40,480 --> 00:21:44,840 Speaker 1: We go home. What we're giving up?
