Speaker 2: Aj McLean Head in the house, and of course.
Speaker 1: We have Drew Boo with us to make sure that's
Speaker 1: everybody behavior. Yeah exactly if I'm talking really fastest because
Speaker 1: my adrenaline is going crazy right now, because we are
Speaker 1: in Las Vegas at the Speedway and we just did
Speaker 1: some fun driving on this course. AJ please explain what
Speaker 1: we just experienced.
Speaker 3: I mean it has been literally like a bucket list
Speaker 3: experience for me to go on a track and to
Speaker 3: just drive fast.
Speaker 4: And we got to do that today in the new
Speaker 4: Ionic five.
Speaker 1: N which literally for inc by the way, no, it
Speaker 1: does not for instincts.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean literally, we got to do a timed
Speaker 3: race between the two of us.
Speaker 4: One I won, although I did hit more cones. It's okay.
Speaker 2: That doesn't disqualify you.
Speaker 4: I mean, I mean, look, you know what it's like.
Speaker 4: It's like splitting hares here. Let's just not I.
Speaker 2: Think I deserve another ten.
Speaker 4: You did hit a.
Speaker 3: Practice yeah, so then we got to go follow a
Speaker 3: lead car on the main track. We got the car
Speaker 3: up to one hundred and fifteen miles per hour, which
Speaker 3: is the fastest I've ever gotten in my life.
Speaker 4: Week yeah, week sauce do that, but I did hit U.
Speaker 3: There's a very special button in the car. It's a
Speaker 3: little special red button that the second you press that button,
Speaker 3: you are literally like accelerating full torque, full speed, full
Speaker 3: horse power.
Speaker 2: Forty one horse power, yes.
Speaker 4: Like instantly, in like ten seconds. And then we this
Speaker 4: is a car that people could buy.
Speaker 2: I mean it feels safe, all electric.
Speaker 3: I mean, look, you're never really gonna use I mean,
Speaker 3: look on the four oh five, you might want to
Speaker 3: use that just to get by some you know, people
Speaker 3: are driving slower than crap. But we also did uh
Speaker 3: go drifting, which was super intense.
Speaker 4: It was super fun.
Speaker 1: I was drifting, but I didn't mean to drift and
Speaker 1: our our race. This is true drifting all over the place.
Speaker 5: I mean, this is what we see in Fast and
Speaker 5: Furious obviously. I mean I grew up in the Midwest
Speaker 5: where we had snow, so you could drift a lot,
Speaker 5: but you didn't really want.
Speaker 4: To just yeah, you slide into.
Speaker 5: Someone's curb or something like that. So, so what's it
Speaker 5: like when you're drifting on actual's asphalt.
Speaker 1: Well, you're kind of really we call them the Oshiza grips. Yep,
Speaker 1: you're really holding onto those those handles.
Speaker 2: Oh, it's really.
Speaker 3: Whipping you around the it's whipping you well, because there's
Speaker 3: the like setup which is kind of jarring, and then
Speaker 3: it's the smooth drift into the turn, and the drifts
Speaker 3: are not that like you're not accelerating, like you're not
Speaker 3: going fast, but you go fast and then you slow
Speaker 3: down and then you start.
Speaker 1: I mean it's there's zero tread left on these ti
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, I mean you could smell yeah, say, I mean,
Speaker 1: thank you Hyundai for letting us have these experiences. They
Speaker 1: let us have so much fun. So I can't wait
Speaker 1: to come back and do it again.
Speaker 4: I can't believe they.
Speaker 5: Let you guys just take because they were everybody else
Speaker 5: they were giving them rides on that track where they're drifting,
Speaker 5: was going.
Speaker 3: Oh we signed a waiver, Oh, we signed our life away.
Speaker 3: We got behind the wheel, but I.
Speaker 5: Was like, I was like, wait, where's the driver for them?
Speaker 5: And they were like, no, we're just gonna let them
Speaker 5: take it out and drift on their own. I was like, well,
Speaker 5: I would not advise that at all.
Speaker 3: I mean, they got a test of seeing how both
Speaker 3: of us drive on the way here to Las Vegas, that.
Speaker 4: We both have lead feet. Let's just be honest. And
Speaker 4: I just want to say, you know, thank you to
Speaker 4: Hunday again. You know.
Speaker 3: The the Ionic five specifically is my oldest daughter's favorite
Speaker 3: car in the world. Anytime we see when driving around
Speaker 3: La she's like, that's gonna be my car dead.
Speaker 4: That's gonna be my four years.
Speaker 3: She's got four years, so hopefully between now and then
Speaker 3: Hyundai we could work something out.

Speaker 1: thing about residencies, Yes you're in Vegas.
Speaker 2: I mean, Vegas is the spot to perform now.
Speaker 4: It is like now more than ever.
Speaker 3: When you know, back with Elton, John and Selene.
Speaker 4: It was still kind of a testing ground like but
Speaker 4: I mean.
Speaker 1: Both there wasn't break because back in the day the
Speaker 1: rat pack Elvis like it was the thing to do.
Speaker 1: Then a couple of decades people stopped doing it.
Speaker 3: Well, they looked at it as like, if you go
Speaker 3: to Vegas, you're washed up, quote unquote. But then, like
Speaker 3: I said, once Elton came with the big red piano
Speaker 3: and you had Selene, that kind of changed things.
Speaker 4: Then when Britney came, it created a whole new like
Speaker 4: perception of it was really young.
Speaker 3: Yeah, and then when we came from what we were
Speaker 3: told it was the fastest selling Vegas residency ever. We
Speaker 3: were set up to do nine shows. We did eighty
Speaker 3: one shows.
Speaker 1: And you're only on the weekends, right, So Wednesday, Friday, Saturday.
Speaker 1: Wednesday Friday said, so what do you do on the
Speaker 1: off days?
Speaker 2: Did you just.
Speaker 3: Thursday some of us which just I mean on Thursday
Speaker 3: most of us which stay here, Uh, and then literally
Speaker 3: on Sunday you fly back home. We would take you know,
Speaker 3: Jet Sweet Eggs or whatever back back to Burbank, go back.
Speaker 4: Home and then fly back out on Wednesday morning.
Speaker 3: But Uh, sadly for me that wasn't the best run
Speaker 3: because I wasn't in my best form back then. Yeah.
Speaker 4: So I do look forward to us coming back to Vegas. Uh,
Speaker 4: now sober for.
Speaker 2: Three years, and congratulation.
Speaker 4: I know that I'm excited.
Speaker 1: I'm so glad that you have you know, you've gotten sober.
Speaker 1: It must be really hard though, in a place like
Speaker 1: Vegas when you're struggling with something like you know that
Speaker 1: it is.
Speaker 3: But at the same time, like you know, now, I
Speaker 3: know that I have the control to say, you know what,
Speaker 3: if I'm not comfortable in whatever situation I'm in, I
Speaker 3: have the power to leave.
Speaker 4: I can just say no, and you know what, I'm out.
Speaker 2: Yeah, But you know, last night we went to.
Speaker 4: Pinky Ring was so much fun.
Speaker 1: And you know a lot of people I would I
Speaker 1: would think, can't even put themselves in a situation where
Speaker 1: people drinking around them. But you are totally fine and
Speaker 1: having the will power to.
Speaker 4: I was also with a good group of people, like You're.
Speaker 2: Not when I was there, so I would say a
Speaker 2: good group of people, but.
Speaker 4: A big a gay group of people.
Speaker 3: No, but like you, you you're not like a like
Speaker 3: a party hard kind of person. Like you're just like
Speaker 3: you're like me, like you wanted to sit and enjoy
Speaker 3: have good conversation.
Speaker 4: The music was incredible, It was incredible.
Speaker 3: I love that there's no phones allowed so you could
Speaker 3: actually enjoy the moment with each other.
Speaker 4: And you know this incredible babble.
Speaker 2: Well, I saw a lot of phones out last night.
Speaker 3: But you're not allowed to film or take pictures. But
Speaker 3: everyone's on their Instagram and doing whatever. But like, no,
Speaker 3: I mean again, like I'm not going to just become
Speaker 3: an introvert and not enjoy my life. But now I
Speaker 3: can make these new memories and I'll remember them like
Speaker 3: this whole experience today on the speedway, like I will
Speaker 3: never forget this, you know what I mean, Like this
Speaker 3: is just awesome.
Speaker 1: Well, I mean, we're talking about those music residencies. Take
Speaker 1: a break when we come back. We're taking a little
Speaker 1: break when we come back. We've got to talk about
Speaker 1: these iconic residencies, and I want to know your opinion on.
Speaker 2: Some of them. So we'll be right back. Welcome back
Speaker 2: to Frosted Tips. I got a J. McLean with me here,
Speaker 2: we got Drew Boots.
Speaker 1: All right, we're in Vegas, and you know residencies are
Speaker 1: going strong here.
Speaker 2: Of course you've done one.
Speaker 1: New kids just announced Theirs, god Dell just finished hers,
Speaker 1: Lady Guy guys always in and.
Speaker 2: Out of here.
Speaker 1: I mean sure, sure, you have to say sure. So,
Speaker 1: uh let me ask you this, who do you think
Speaker 1: had the most iconic Vegas residency of all time?
Speaker 2: All time? I mean.
Speaker 3: You gotta go like I feel like, look, I feel
Speaker 3: like this was a very limited run for this particular group,
Speaker 3: and I'm so glad we got to see it. Uh.
Speaker 3: Me and Kevin Bryan how he went to see Silk sonic.
Speaker 3: It was the epitome of what a Vegas show should be,
Speaker 3: from the music to the wardrobe, to the lighting, to
Speaker 3: the staging. And the band is huge band I mean
Speaker 3: doing because it was very reminiscent of what Bruno does
Speaker 3: with his band. So the band is dancing with him,
Speaker 3: and then you got you know, Anderson Pack playing the drums.
Speaker 3: They go back and forth on the drums. It was,
Speaker 3: it was comedic, it was entertaining. The sound at Park
Speaker 3: MGM is just insane. And then a close second right there.
Speaker 3: I got to go with my family.
Speaker 4: To see the very last jazz show that God did.
Speaker 1: It's my favorite one. It's unreal, I mean again, comedic.
Speaker 1: She plays this character's amazing.
Speaker 3: And honestly, one of the things she did in that
Speaker 3: show that I've never seen any artists do in my
Speaker 3: whole career, and maybe you've.
Speaker 4: Never seen it either.
Speaker 3: The most captivating moment she's playing the piano, she's singing
Speaker 3: with the mic, she gets off the piano, off the
Speaker 3: mic and sings with no mic, and that whole venue
Speaker 3: you can hear a pin drop.
Speaker 2: Really actually listening.
Speaker 4: To her sing like a cappella with no no sound.
Speaker 2: And I have to say it was.
Speaker 1: It was my favorite performance to watch by far. I
Speaker 1: was there opening night for Selene years and years ago.
Speaker 1: Uh so long ago. I remember Justin was hosting it
Speaker 1: for the television. I don't know what network was doing it,
Speaker 1: but he was. It was right when his solo career started,
Speaker 1: so like he was like the host backstage. But I
Speaker 1: think the most iconic for me, and of course I
Speaker 1: never saw it but Elvis. I mean it just when
Speaker 1: you think Vegas, you think Elvis, that rat pack, but
Speaker 1: also I think the.
Speaker 2: King Wayne Newton. Oh, I mean Wayne Newton has always
Speaker 2: killed it in.
Speaker 5: This town, thousands of performances here. He iss, yes, there's
Speaker 5: a reason for that. You know he still does, he
Speaker 5: still perform I couldn't tell you that. Like I saw
Speaker 5: something about him like maybe three years ago or whatever he.
Speaker 2: Was he was very old.
Speaker 4: But yeah, he's still coming out on that stage.
Speaker 2: And I don't know if he has a residency.
Speaker 4: Right, I mean, look at Donny Osman. Donnie Osman has.
Speaker 2: Been Donny, I've seen Donna Marie together.
Speaker 3: I mean you and I talked about this on the
Speaker 3: Driver today, like people like Carrot Top that have been.
Speaker 4: Here and tell her that had been here for ever, right,
Speaker 4: like you know, track of time.
Speaker 5: It's funny because Carrot Top, you know, he for a
Speaker 5: long time. He's kind of the butt of people jokes
Speaker 5: and Lance and I years and years ago when we
Speaker 5: were doing the radio show.
Speaker 4: We we came to Vegas for something.
Speaker 2: I forget what and we and Lance.
Speaker 5: Was like, We're gonna go see Carrot Top and I
Speaker 5: was like really and he's like, yo, you'll be surprised.
Speaker 5: Every joke was a like a huge laugh because he's
Speaker 5: done the act for so long.
Speaker 2: He's so funny. But he's just changes a.
Speaker 5: Lot because he's staying relevant with that's true, and he's
Speaker 5: just he's like a laser.
Speaker 4: Everyone's a bullet.
Speaker 5: It's just joke, joke, joke, and then all of a sudden,
Speaker 5: ninety minutes goes by and you're like, oh.
Speaker 2: That's it, Like it was wild.
Speaker 4: Scott.
Speaker 2: If there was someone to.
Speaker 1: Get a residency, like your favorite artists, who would it be?
Speaker 1: Who would you want to see on an incredible stage?
Speaker 3: I mean I did get to see Aerosmith when they
Speaker 3: had their RESU was incredible.
Speaker 1: Who should though, Like, I mean something epic, you know
Speaker 1: I won't When you think Vegas, I want all the
Speaker 1: bells and whistles. You know, I don't want someone just
Speaker 1: sitting behind the mic singing.
Speaker 2: I entertain me. I want show girls. I want it all.
Speaker 2: Give it to me.
Speaker 3: I mean, gosh, I mean there's so it. It just
Speaker 3: depends like do you want a group? Do you want
Speaker 3: a solo artist? Do you want like a female like?
Speaker 4: I don't know, man, God, there's so many artists like
Speaker 4: Coleplay would be great. I was thinking cole Play would
Speaker 4: be incredible.
Speaker 5: And their show would just be so like, yeah, have.
Speaker 2: You been to the sphere yet? No?
Speaker 1: No, okay, that that is the ultimate. I think I
Speaker 1: would love to put on a one night only performance
Speaker 1: and just have so much fun that.
Speaker 3: I'm so I missed the Grateful Dead performance there and
Speaker 3: fish you too?
Speaker 5: Yeah, I mean, God, but who I mean? I guess
Speaker 5: cole plays a good answer.
Speaker 4: Oh, I'm trying to.
Speaker 2: I mean, I know mine who Destiny's child?
Speaker 4: Oh would be Gods.
Speaker 1: Or pussy Cat Dolls killer because they would dance, they
Speaker 1: would sing their asses off.
Speaker 5: I mean that would No, that's that's a really good one. Actually,
Speaker 5: Dusty's child to come back together?
Speaker 2: That or Spice Girls.
Speaker 3: I'm sure my girls would be a killer residence, A
Speaker 3: nice All right, let's talk about this pickle.
Speaker 2: So one of our stops.
Speaker 1: On the way here was at this place in Baker.
Speaker 1: Baker is home of the world's largest thermometer.
Speaker 2: Right, yes, and we've been there.
Speaker 1: One hundred and thirty four was the record, right uh.
Speaker 1: And then there's a place across the street called Alien Again.
Speaker 1: I always see it, and I used to live in
Speaker 1: Vegas or everything, like, oh, I'm going to stop there.
Speaker 2: We finally stopped there. It wasn't so impressed with.
Speaker 4: You have to like you really have to be a
Speaker 4: fan of jerky.
Speaker 2: Jerky, a hot sauce, which I love hot sauce.
Speaker 1: But I was expecting this kind of like museum, like
Speaker 1: Alien museum or something.
Speaker 2: But it was basically a seven eleven of jerky.
Speaker 4: Literally yeah, like I mean jerky. They have a lot
Speaker 4: of candy jerky.
Speaker 1: But they had an array of pickles, right every flavor
Speaker 1: you could think of.
Speaker 2: So now a lot of.
Speaker 4: I love pickles, love love pickles. I prefer like.
Speaker 3: If you go to like the true like jewish DELI like,
Speaker 3: they're not bitter pickle, the one that's not been pickled
Speaker 3: long enough. It's got that real crisp almost like cucumber
Speaker 3: my favorite.
Speaker 1: That's that's my least favorite. I don't like the New
Speaker 1: York pickles. I like the ones that have been sitting there.
Speaker 1: Dylan Forever, Dylan Dylan, Yo, my favorite. Like as a kid,
Speaker 1: I loved, you know, play baseball, or i'd go to
Speaker 1: a baseball game. I'd always get, you know, the whole pickle.
Speaker 1: You know, it was fifty cents. It was fifty cents
Speaker 1: for pickle. It's my favorite thing. So we found all
Speaker 1: these pickles at this jerky place and there was one
Speaker 1: that you found, remember the Warheads you're a kid, that
Speaker 1: was super sound.
Speaker 2: It was supposed to be.
Speaker 3: So there was a TikTok challenge that happened a while back,
Speaker 3: and it was with this exact pickle, and it, yeah,
Speaker 3: it was supposed to be the world's most sour pickles.
Speaker 3: Warheads supposed to be extremely sour. And we did, like
Speaker 3: a full on Lady in the Tramp moment picklehead to pickle.
Speaker 2: Ahead, cameras and ready to pickle head to pickle ahead.
Speaker 4: No, we really wanted to get like a reaction out
Speaker 4: of you. It literally just tasted like a pickle.
Speaker 2: Is that even possible though. Yeah, it was supposed to
Speaker 2: have got it, just a bad batch.
Speaker 1: It was again it describes the alien place.
Speaker 4: It was branded with warhead sour. Can they also have
Speaker 4: invisible jerky? Did you see.
Speaker 3: That's a bag and it's an empty bag that they
Speaker 3: make you pay like fifteen dollars for it?
Speaker 4: No?
Speaker 5: No, it was a buck night And I was like,
Speaker 5: this is one of those gifts that you get as
Speaker 5: a kid where you're like, I don't think it's funny.
Speaker 4: Where where's my danger?
Speaker 2: Yeah?
Speaker 1: I remember we did a road trip when I was
Speaker 1: a kid, and you know, it was up in Pennsylvania
Speaker 1: and I guess there's a Transylvania Pennsylvania maybe you know, And.
Speaker 2: Of course they do the whole and I remember there
Speaker 2: was a little side, you know.
Speaker 1: Stop and we stop and they have this little cage
Speaker 1: where there was these little baby bats and I'm like, oh,
Speaker 1: and they're like you see the little baby bats? And like,
Speaker 1: I'm an idiot, don't I don't see any baby.
Speaker 2: Bats in here.
Speaker 1: They're like you don't see those little baby bats? Like
Speaker 1: what is going on? It was literally like baby baseball bats?
Speaker 2: Like are you kidding me? That was the stop? That
Speaker 2: was the tourist trap from little baby baseball.
Speaker 3: You see did you see recently like this whole thing
Speaker 3: at the zoo in China where like they finally had
Speaker 3: to admit that they painted dogs to look like pandas. No, yes, yeah,
Speaker 3: they're like chowds like, but they painted them to look
Speaker 3: like pandas just so they can have Literally, they had
Speaker 3: to admit it because like tourists would go and see
Speaker 3: and go, Okay, that's not a panda.
Speaker 4: That's a dog painted like a panda.
Speaker 2: That is the most ridiculous thing. Is it hard to
Speaker 2: get a panda these days?
Speaker 4: I actually held one.
Speaker 3: I held a baby panda, all five of us. We
Speaker 3: were in Chengdu, China, and we went to a sanctuary
Speaker 3: where they rehabilitate and they can, you know, help because
Speaker 3: pandas were slowly becoming endangered, and they let us hold
Speaker 3: six month old pandas.
Speaker 4: They're about seventy five pounds and the cutest things in
Speaker 4: the world. They're pefty.
Speaker 3: Just hold a little piece of bamboo. They're just knowing
Speaker 3: on it. But like I got to say, I held
Speaker 3: a panda, and.
Speaker 5: To this day, that same panda sing sweet sweet harmonies.
Speaker 1: I mean, if you want to go down a rabbit hole,
Speaker 1: go search baby pandas they're naughty and so funny to
Speaker 1: watch they are.
Speaker 2: They're like zoo keepers. They're like mischievous.
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, they're just like always trying to just get
Speaker 1: into things.
Speaker 4: Humsy as hell? Is that why they're endangered because.
Speaker 2: They just wasn't people.
Speaker 4: They're almost gone because look at how they act.
Speaker 2: Just roll off the cliff.
Speaker 1: But they're having But I mean they're bears, right, so
Speaker 1: I would imagine that you they would kill you, right

Speaker 2: Yeah, but I still think they would rip you apart.
Speaker 4: Oh, I mean sure, you know, yeah, I mean I guess.

Speaker 2: It's true living here.
Speaker 1: You know, we brought the kids here yet no, I
Speaker 1: have not. They're not old enough to really enjoy. There's
Speaker 1: lots of great things for kids, but they're just now
Speaker 1: getting old enough to be able to experience those fun things.
Speaker 4: You know. I brought my kids here a couple of times,
Speaker 4: like when we have the residency.
Speaker 3: You know, uh, you've got like the shark tank and
Speaker 3: you've got But there's a lot of things on the
Speaker 3: outskirts to do. There's hiking, there's mountain biking, there's doom buggies,
Speaker 3: there's going fast in a car.
Speaker 1: How old do you have to be to write like
Speaker 1: do this speedway thing? Because my kids would love to
Speaker 1: be in the back of that car.
Speaker 2: That nobody and nobody in this whole room.
Speaker 4: It's probably eighteen and up.
Speaker 2: Because you like sign your.
Speaker 3: I mean I love going to shows, you know, like

Speaker 2: My Oh yeah, it's all really I mean it's that's
Speaker 2: a funny show.
Speaker 4: It's not circ it's its own show, but it is.

Speaker 2: It's really funny.
Speaker 4: The two mcs, it's a guy and a girl. They
Speaker 4: are Oh it's funny. Yeah, oh my god. But it
Speaker 4: is like circum of sense.
Speaker 3: But there's no protective nets, there's no nothing in some
Speaker 3: of the things that they do.
Speaker 4: It's got you on the edge.
Speaker 2: Of you see. Yeah, and you're just in a little
Speaker 2: circus tent right in your face. Yeah yeah wow. But
Speaker 2: you know, back in the day when I lived here,
Speaker 2: that's when you know.
Speaker 1: The Palms was the best hotel, and you know that
Speaker 1: rain Nightclub and the Real World sweet, you know real
Speaker 1: World that just ended that time, that Playboy Club. But
Speaker 1: it was you know in my twenties, Yes, you were
Speaker 1: always at heart and just having like a really good time.
Speaker 1: Now in my elder age, it's all about the restaurants.
Speaker 1: There's such good food here. All these chefs have come here,
Speaker 1: put their little flagship restaurants in you can't you know what.
Speaker 5: Was that place you were talking about yesterday?
Speaker 4: Oh Hell's kitchen, No no, no library? Oh yeah, so the
Speaker 4: library at the Nomad Hotel. Oh my god.
Speaker 3: Like the food, and then after hours it turns into
Speaker 3: so actually Gaga's MD, who's an insane trumpet player, has
Speaker 3: a mini residency there. So it's like a full burlesque
Speaker 3: jazz show that happens after hours in that restaurant.
Speaker 2: Gaga's music.
Speaker 4: Got a talent, and.
Speaker 3: You're literally in a library. There's books everywhere, and it's
Speaker 3: such a cool vibe. The lighting's great, but the food
Speaker 3: is insane. The yellow tail and the bread.
Speaker 1: Oh well, and that's you know, Vegas is all about opulence, right,
Speaker 1: I mean, because there's so much money, you can't you
Speaker 1: can't go to any other town because you don't have
Speaker 1: that money behind you just to make the biggest restaurant
Speaker 1: ever in this most elaborate drinks. So that's one of
Speaker 1: this place is so special because they got the funds
Speaker 1: to be able to give you the best experience.

Speaker 3: I mean it really is like you said, you have
Speaker 3: this perception of Vegas is just party, party, party, party party.
Speaker 4: There is so much more.
Speaker 2: To do and experience. When I lived here, I loved
Speaker 2: It's kind of like a barter system.
Speaker 1: So you know, you know everyone, you know, all the performers,
Speaker 1: you know, all the chefs, I mean everything, and they're like, oh,
Speaker 1: can you give me tickets to this? Sure, if you
Speaker 1: can give me, you know, a free dinner. But it's
Speaker 1: it's always just kind of like trading. You never spent
Speaker 1: a dime living here. Everyone takes care of each other.
