Speaker 5: at Spin dot com or whatever if that still exists.
Speaker 1: Dot com may spin.
Speaker 5: They're real stingy. A Pitchfork man, that review was like,
Speaker 5: this is the greatest album ever and they give it
Speaker 5: a seven point four. I mean that's like, that's a
Speaker 5: seventy four. You know, you get that on an essay
Speaker 5: in seventh grade and you get in trouble.
Speaker 1: Well, there's the Harvard of Music.
Speaker 5: I'm not putting them down. They're my daddy.
Speaker 1: They are my daddy. They liked the Andre album, by
Speaker 1: the way, they gave Andrea's flute music. Oh right, man
Speaker 1: eight point something. I like it too, Miles. Have we
Speaker 1: talked since it came out?
Speaker 4: No? No, no, how are you feeling? It's cool? I
Speaker 4: mean it's it's like it's it's experimental music. I don't
Speaker 4: listen to a lot of exper I mean it's interesting,
Speaker 4: but I don't. I never put experimental on. I'm like,
Speaker 4: you know what, crack my knuckles and sit back, like
Speaker 4: getting some experimental right now.
Speaker 1: But it's cool.
Speaker 4: Yeah.
Speaker 1: Like the first song on the album is the first
Speaker 1: experimental music song I've ever had stuck in my head.
Speaker 1: So that's all I said.
Speaker 4: The whole time I was listening to it. I was like,
Speaker 4: some if a producer is smart enough, they should just
Speaker 4: be sampling this album and then putting Andrea Acapella's over this.
Speaker 1: That's what I was saying. I was saying, somebody's gonna
Speaker 1: somebody's gonna, you know, sample this, turn it into the
Speaker 1: type of music I normally.
Speaker 5: Like, if you guys heard Ozzy Osbourne singing, looks like
Speaker 5: we made it. The song by no the song by them,
Speaker 5: what do you that's not it's not called look looks
Speaker 5: like we made it. It's that's a Barry Manlow Shuniswain song.
Speaker 4: Still the one, Oh You're still the one?
Speaker 5: Have you heard the Ozzy Osbourne version of that? They do? Ai?
Speaker 5: I swear to god it's good.
Speaker 1: It gave me.
Speaker 5: It gave me fresh appreciation for that song, which I
Speaker 5: always so. Anyway, if they could do that with Andre
Speaker 5: three thousand.
Speaker 4: Oh it's it's Oh. That one's a I didn't like.
Speaker 4: I'm like, in a way, I'm like, oh, Ozzie covered
Speaker 4: still the one that sounds like maybe something Ozzie would do.
Speaker 5: But you know it's a he's not well enough anymore.
Speaker 1: Yeah, the tonality these days.
Speaker 5: You give him a couple of hundred bucks, you do that.
Speaker 4: Christ hold on, no, no, I gotta hear this.
Speaker 5: Oh it's so good. It's so fucking good. It's actually good.
Speaker 5: The only time I've been thankful.
Speaker 1: For a I We're gonna get sued by Big Daddy.
Speaker 3: AI, Okay, okay, it's incredible.
Speaker 5: It's like giving me. It's like when someone covers the
Speaker 5: song that you like it again and h that song
Speaker 5: used to be good but then it got overplayed. Anyway,
Speaker 5: so I like, what so Pasi on the Flute album? Anyway.
Speaker 5: I think the Flute Album's fine, but I also am
Speaker 5: like annoyed by like young I work with young people
Speaker 5: now because I work at like a vintage store, and
Speaker 5: they're all like, this is my zone, and I'm like, yeah,
Speaker 5: your zone is like stoned and checked out. Like instead
Speaker 5: of punk rock, we get flu a further retreat. We're
Speaker 5: going into a new age now. I did not expect
Speaker 5: that the response to like fascism would be new age music,
Speaker 5: but that's what's basically happening.
Speaker 4: Well, it's one response yeah, yeah, yeah.
Speaker 5: It's like stone. It's connected to stone though, you know,
Speaker 5: which is not good. Revolution is not good. Weed is
Speaker 5: not the right drug.
Speaker 4: For could you imagine? Though, Like that's the new thing.
Speaker 4: You just see like just people in the streets. Now
Speaker 4: the flute brigade comes out and they're like, oh shit, yeah,
Speaker 4: it's time, it's time. Could be the.
Speaker 5: Millennials with gen Z, they're always like, I'm tired, you know,
Speaker 5: like I'm already tired, like you know what I mean,
Speaker 5: because they're tired everyone with social media, you know. I
Speaker 5: mean yeah, but even like gen Z they're like twenty
Speaker 5: eight years old or whatever, and they're like, thank god,
Speaker 5: it's flute music. I can't take any more.
Speaker 1: Tell you one person a revolution with a flute, little
Speaker 1: gap by the name of the Pied Piper.
Speaker 5: So yeah, yeah, that was a caffeine type flute that
Speaker 5: was a caffeinated, hyper caffeinated butterfly fluttering that.
Speaker 4: Was trying to catch wasn't sixty vpm, That shit was
Speaker 4: like one eighty.
Speaker 5: That was back when the flute was like the electric guitar.
Speaker 1: That's right. Oh my god, see that dude shredding out.
Speaker 5: Yeah, that was.
Speaker 1: Happening. That's a big thing that.
Speaker 5: We've developed. Yeah, because I want to lead some kids
Speaker 5: over a cliff. I don't even know what he did
Speaker 5: or led the rats out of Sweden or whatever.
Speaker 1: Believe you got the rats out of Sweden.
Speaker 2: What am I gonna do? I gotta get rid of
Speaker 2: these rats.
Speaker 5: What's our loudest instrument?
Speaker 1: Flute?
Speaker 5: Jesus give me one.
Speaker 1: Fuck, it's only been a few years. That's what we've
Speaker 1: come up with. All right, Chris, We're gonna get to
Speaker 1: know you a little bit better in a moment. First,
Speaker 1: a couple of things we're talking about. I mean, it's
Speaker 1: a crofton episode. I don't know if we're going to
Speaker 1: talk about any of this ship.
Speaker 5: But I'm much more mature you are.
Speaker 1: I know that is not a complaint. We love a
Speaker 1: we love a good cross.
Speaker 5: Since I ran for office, I've been a lot more
Speaker 5: on topic.
Speaker 4: Okay, all right, all right?
Speaker 1: Yeah, and you did hand us a power point. You
Speaker 1: handed us a power point. You have a one sheet
Speaker 1: that you would full of topics that you would like
Speaker 1: us to stick to.
Speaker 4: Me. Yeah, and you already you messed up by bringing
Speaker 4: up the pitchfork thing.
Speaker 5: Me, me and me.
Speaker 1: That's what we're gonna talk about people how frequently people
Speaker 1: kids these damn days are checking the damn phone.
Speaker 4: Dang, everybody, not just kids.
Speaker 1: Everybody's checking our phone during sex and other times that
Speaker 1: we shouldn't be doing that. Talk about that we might
Speaker 1: check them with private equity. From a previous Tuesday episode,
Speaker 1: we are of course going to talk about Hall getting
Speaker 1: restraining order against Oats. I feel like if I'm like
Speaker 1: ranking these in the order of like what what we
Speaker 1: will get to Hall getting restraining order against Oats is
Speaker 1: probably I need criss craft.
Speaker 5: That's pretty incredible. Yeah, that's like, yeah, that's like soup
Speaker 5: getting mad at nuts or something.
Speaker 4: But Darryl Halls is kind of a he looks like
Speaker 4: a like an ego maniac. That guy.
Speaker 5: Yeah, I saw him in the supermarket in like nineteen
Speaker 5: eighty five. He looked completely out of place because he
Speaker 5: was in his rock and.
Speaker 4: Roll you know, like Daryl Hall a video mill.
Speaker 1: Had like the black tights on, and yeah.
Speaker 5: Maybe he was in town for some kind of event
Speaker 5: or something, but he was like buying milk, wearing like
Speaker 5: his rock and roll clothes, and he looked ridiculous, incredible.
Speaker 1: I think people who like are larger than life. Personalities
Speaker 1: like that should be forced to always like have their
Speaker 1: look on.
Speaker 4: Yeah, I mean should come with it, yeah, like part
Speaker 4: of them.
Speaker 1: Yeah yeah, those like baseball caps pulled low over the eyes.
Speaker 4: You know, no, because you got to keep up the
Speaker 4: mystique of this celebrity myth, you know what I mean,
Speaker 4: Like they look like that all the time. Yeah, and
Speaker 4: they hate it.
Speaker 1: We might even talk about the Squid Game reality show
Speaker 1: all of that, maybe none of that, some of that,
Speaker 1: but before we get to it, Chris crofton, we do
Speaker 1: like to ask hello, yes, hello, Chris Hello. We like
Speaker 1: to say hello, toodles. And also what is something from
Speaker 1: your search history that's revealing about who you are?
Speaker 5: Well, it's become a tradition on here for me to
Speaker 5: tell you about weird stuff on the YouTube. And I've
Speaker 5: been into lately because I'm still very much into YouTube,
Speaker 5: but I'm still not paying for the ad free so
Speaker 5: I'm starting to lose it because they're really making the
Speaker 5: ads long.
Speaker 4: They're trying to wait, wait, i mean look ad blockers,
Speaker 4: ad blockers on YouTube. Yeah, yeah, yeah, Chris, there's ad blockers.
Speaker 5: That's someone you hire.
Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah, you hire them. You give look, you give
Speaker 4: me sixty bucks a month. I'll make sure you get
Speaker 4: no ads man, trust me.
Speaker 5: No.
Speaker 4: But there's like there're extensions that you put in a browser.
Speaker 4: I'll walk you through it later.
Speaker 1: Hold on.
Speaker 2: Fuck yeah, extensions in a browser?
Speaker 5: Do I have to write my congressman?
Speaker 1: No?
Speaker 4: No, no, you can do it all from the privacy
Speaker 4: of your own home.
Speaker 5: That's all right. So I'm a fool anyway. I know
Speaker 5: I'm a fool. Let should just be paying paying for it,
Speaker 5: but I anyway, that's what's caused.
Speaker 4: Like this has been a huge thing because they're like
Speaker 4: some creators who are like I don't care if people
Speaker 4: are using ad blockers to watch my content, Like I
Speaker 4: don't want to. I don't I don't want to prevent
Speaker 4: people from watching what I see. And YouTube has now
Speaker 4: been like fighting like the people who have ad blockers
Speaker 4: in their browsers or to be like we've suspecting that you,
Speaker 4: like we can tell you're using an ad blocker. If
Speaker 4: you do it three more times, you will get like
Speaker 4: you can't use your account anymore. Oh okay, And it's
Speaker 4: caused Like what's great though, is like it just made
Speaker 4: the like ad blocking movement even more aggressive. We're like
Speaker 4: now they're like, oh, that's how you want to play.
Speaker 4: Then we're like, we're gonna make sure our shit's real tight.
Speaker 4: So now you can't sense even when we're using ad blockers.
Speaker 5: Wow, I love that. Yeah, Okay, so I'm like one
Speaker 5: of these guys. It's just stuck because I'm old, you
Speaker 5: know that. I'm like, oh, no way around this. I
Speaker 5: gotta watch thirty seconds of ads for Capital one or.
Speaker 4: Whatever, right, and then then you can watch your mother.
Speaker 5: And then I get to watch my mind exploring video.
Speaker 1: Yeah.
Speaker 5: So I'm still stuck up. But they've also been trying
Speaker 5: to break me. I really feel like they've like this
Speaker 5: guy's been going for a long time and it's time
Speaker 5: to amp it up. We're gonna make these ads really long,
Speaker 5: you know, because for a while it was like you
Speaker 5: can skip the ads, you know, they skip ads like
Speaker 5: that button doesn't even come up for me anymore. So
Speaker 5: they're trying to get me to pay.
Speaker 1: But I'm standing think they've got you like targeted, and
Speaker 1: some they're like this this is the one guy who
Speaker 1: this is all insane.
Speaker 5: This is like I like the idea that they're personally
Speaker 5: attacking me, like they're getting track of like, we're gonna
Speaker 5: get this guy to pay, and I'm like, no, you're not.
Speaker 2: I'll watch ads. I'll watch them.
Speaker 1: I don't care. They see their earnings going down and
Speaker 1: they're like, what's crofting up to?
Speaker 2: I'm not paying.
Speaker 5: I mean, That's what I'm doing over here. So I
Speaker 5: found a couple of things that were really good. One
Speaker 5: is mob.
Speaker 4: Facts, like what like stats like a.
Speaker 5: Pack all caps. It's an account called mob Facts m.
Speaker 1: O B F A X, and a lot of it.
Speaker 5: A lot of it's just like like old TV shows,
Speaker 5: or like it's not TV shows. It's always like news,
Speaker 5: like old news reports about the mob or biker gangs
Speaker 5: and stuff.
Speaker 4: Oh whoa.
Speaker 5: But there's also a lot of b roll that they
Speaker 5: put up unedited from like news reports from nineteen eighty
Speaker 5: two from like Daytona Beach about biker gangs, where it's
Speaker 5: just them filming them in their clubhouse, just like with
Speaker 5: no narration, just you're just basically hanging out in a
Speaker 5: biker clubhouse in Daytona in nineteen eighty two. You know.
Speaker 5: And I've talked to I know Miles is talking. We've
Speaker 5: talked about the payphones, Like I don't know if we
Speaker 5: like that kind of thing where I was a long
Speaker 5: time ago, I said, I used to search on YouTube
Speaker 5: like for like wild sound from a diner nineteen sixty two,
Speaker 5: you know, and it's like there's no there's none, and
Speaker 5: and anyway, it turns out like anyway, it doesn't matter.
Speaker 5: You can hang out in a biker bar in real
Speaker 5: time on these things. Like it's just like tons of
Speaker 5: b ye roll of just like of Daytona in nineteen
Speaker 5: eighty two, or like Tampa or or or even Charlotte,
Speaker 5: North Carolina, like everywhere was like rural back then, so
Speaker 5: like Charlotte, North Carolina looked like the mob.
Speaker 1: The first to like do spring Break is that like
Speaker 1: it sounds very very much like.
Speaker 5: I don't know why they focus on Broward County or whatever.
Speaker 5: That was one of the ones I watched. It's like
Speaker 5: three hours of b roll unedited footage of bikers hanging out.
Speaker 4: Yeah, this one's like Florida Florida part one.
Speaker 5: Oh yeah, I watched one. Yeah, that's the one I watched.
Speaker 5: Like that's that's the good one. I mean that's there's
Speaker 5: like three episodes of it.
Speaker 4: And so someone just like aggregating, like they use the
Speaker 4: term loosely. Oh, this is my favorite episode in this tape.
Speaker 6: It's local news and the procession of motorcycles, some not
Speaker 6: as the Outlaws bury one of their own. The funeral
Speaker 6: is for Henry Wow, and a little.
Speaker 5: Bit well can they hear this on the on the show?
Speaker 1: Yeah?
Speaker 4: Yeah, oh they can't. Oh is this them in their
Speaker 4: club now? Oh yeah, just silent film with them, like yeah, yeah, yeah,
Speaker 4: So we're really into Iron Crosses. Okay, so this is
Speaker 4: where you're like.
Speaker 5: Yeah, this is not seeing the politics of nineteen eighty
Speaker 5: two Outlaws out Motorcycle Gang. I just think it's interesting
Speaker 5: to see people hanging out like in the bar before
Speaker 5: there were phones, right right, No, and it's really boring.
Speaker 5: It turns out it's really boring. All people did was
Speaker 5: tackle each other.
Speaker 1: Oh really, there's people. So when they're hanging out in
Speaker 1: the bar, they're tackling one another.
Speaker 5: No, there's one guy on the payphone already, so they
Speaker 5: can't use the payphone. And then and there's no other phones,
Speaker 5: so they're playing pool and then and then usually they
Speaker 5: just get drunk and then they just start tackling each other.
Speaker 5: So I will say that, you know, for all the
Speaker 5: trouble phones have caused we are of living in a
Speaker 5: better time for like, you know how you know there's
Speaker 5: an upside to we can read a Wikipedia about Alexander
Speaker 5: Graham Bell instead of tackling our friend Onion. Yeah, at
Speaker 5: the clubhouse or whatever. I mean, that's all they do.
Speaker 5: At a certain point, they just get so drunk they
Speaker 5: start just helping each other around the barroom.
Speaker 2: They're like, oh, get onion, he fell down. Oh my god,
Speaker 2: animal or.
Speaker 5: You know what. They're all named things like like scallion
Speaker 5: boy or whatever.
Speaker 1: Cricket good for good form, Hey, rat.
Speaker 4: Man, rat Man, ratman, Scallion Larry got hit by a dart.
Speaker 5: Like they're all just causing their own trouble. They're like,
Speaker 5: you know, they're like trying to fight themselves, Like where
Speaker 5: did you come from? They're like looking in a mirror.
Speaker 5: You know, it's like that guy, it's like that kind.
Speaker 1: Of it's like headbutting it.
Speaker 5: It definitely doesn't look as like interesting as you know,
Speaker 5: you imagine.
Speaker 1: You know, it's like it must have been much harder
Speaker 1: to be sober back then, like because there's just nothing
Speaker 1: to do, right, Yeah, you just had to like get
Speaker 1: really serious about like seeing how many of your friends
Speaker 1: you could cram into a phone booth like that wasn't
Speaker 1: it wasn't that one of the hobbies, one of the
Speaker 1: other hobbies besides just getting drunk at noon, that's like
Speaker 1: way yeah, yeah, it was like kids seeing how many
Speaker 1: people they could cram into a phone booth.
Speaker 5: Yeah, oh definitely, and you get you get, yeah, swallowing
Speaker 5: goldfish or whatever. Also, it's you can really get a
Speaker 5: sense of how unsafe the world was back then. Sure,
Speaker 5: you know, I mean there was just one phone and
Speaker 5: somebody was usually on it, and if you couldn't get
Speaker 5: to it.
Speaker 1: Yeah, and everyone was. You could just to assume that
Speaker 1: everybody you encountered was drunk like it throughout the day.
Speaker 1: For the most part, I feel like.
Speaker 5: If they weren't drunk, they were all for their whole
Speaker 5: head and body was full of leaded gasoline, which I
Speaker 5: think is actually a secret reason why America has gone
Speaker 5: to hell. It's because for like, well I think maybe
Speaker 5: every nation, but you know, I think that we all
Speaker 5: were like, we must be stupid, and we're not like
Speaker 5: gonna analyze ourselves well, because we were we're already you
Speaker 5: know what I mean, Like we already got poisoned by
Speaker 5: lead so how can people who are poisoned by lead
Speaker 5: assume that they're not doing that bad? You know what
Speaker 5: I mean, Like, like you can't assess yourself if you've
Speaker 5: already been poisoned by like, oh, well, I think we
Speaker 5: had leaded gasoline in the air for like forty years,
Speaker 5: but I don't think it had much of an impact. Meanwhile,
Speaker 5: everything's going crazy, but they're like, of course the person
Speaker 5: who's poisoned by lead is gonna say it didn't have
Speaker 5: much of an impact. An alcoholics saying they're not an alcoholic, yeah,
Speaker 5: which is one of my favorite, Uh that Norm McDonald's
Speaker 5: story where he says he got drunk at the bar
Speaker 5: and it was like a second time ever getting drunk,
Speaker 5: and he got put in a rehab. He said, he
Speaker 5: told him he wasn't an alcoholic, and they said, he said,
Speaker 5: but the thing is, that's what alcoholics say.
Speaker 1: That's exactly what alcoholics. So you just like can't get out. Yeah.
Speaker 1: But I mean, there is the big lead crime hypothesis
Speaker 1: that's I don't know. This basically says that, you know,
Speaker 1: there's been this massive drop off in crime throughout a
Speaker 1: lot of the world, and it happens to coincide with
Speaker 1: the removal of lead from gasoline and every pain.
Speaker 5: Yeah, that's possible.
Speaker 1: In formula, I feel like it seemed like it was
Speaker 1: in everything.
Speaker 5: People aren't. Yeah, it was in everything, because it was
Speaker 5: like coming out of everywhere you looked. I mean, oh,
Speaker 5: I remember A big part of my childhood was like
Speaker 5: car exhaust, you know that doesn't exist anymore. That was
Speaker 5: everywhere you went. I mean you stood in parking lots
Speaker 5: getting led straight in your young face. Yeah, I mean
Speaker 5: everywhere you went. Yeah, I mean that that must have
Speaker 5: had an impact. And now we these lead poison people,
Speaker 5: do these studies that say nothing happened to us.
Speaker 4: Right, and also the positions of power we.
Speaker 5: Look around the world. Yeah, meanwhile, we look around the
Speaker 5: world and like, you know, Mitch McConnell like is shutting
Speaker 5: down talking. It's not the gasoline, like someone from another
Speaker 5: galaxy's like that's classic lead.
Speaker 4: He leaded fucking freak.
Speaker 5: He grew up in Kentucky in the nineteen fifties. Holy ship,
Speaker 5: that guy's like ninety percent lead.
Speaker 1: He's mostly lead. At this point, he actually thinks he's
Speaker 1: doing good things. Yeah. The only people who are like
Speaker 1: still clinging to power who still have power and wealth
Speaker 1: in this country. Are all like the most the most
Speaker 1: lead boys and the.
Speaker 5: Koch brothers been like hanging around like fucking yard ship.
Speaker 4: Yeah, they're like, Yeah. I used to be the pencil
Speaker 4: sharp the designated pencil sharpener in class for every grade
Speaker 4: I was in. I would take all the lead pencils
Speaker 4: and grind them up right there and take big old
Speaker 4: whiffs of.
Speaker 1: It, and you got like ct just doing lines of
Speaker 1: pencil shavings. Do you guys like the smell of gasoline?
Speaker 1: I'm sorry, what do you like the smell of gasoline?
Speaker 4: You mean like on some like motor head type ship,
Speaker 4: like a man, just like.
Speaker 1: When you're pumping gas.
Speaker 5: If I waded in, Yes, Miles exactly.
Speaker 1: He's never heard of this, which means uff, I think
Speaker 1: this explains a lot about it was.
Speaker 5: Obviously, I don't think what you're talking about.
Speaker 1: Like, I think in the early eighties they still had
Speaker 1: lead in the gas, and I think I huffing that
Speaker 1: ship as like a four year old dude.
Speaker 4: I think I feel like because I know they started
Speaker 4: to phase it out in the eighties, and I feel
Speaker 4: like I have vivid memories of my mom specifically asking
Speaker 4: for unleaded gasoline.
Speaker 1: Yeah, that was the thing. Unleaded please right, you decaf
Speaker 1: in the morning.
Speaker 5: That wasn't like a choice like you were vegetarians, just
Speaker 5: according to what kind of car you had. I don't
Speaker 5: think you could use unleaded in a leaded gas car,
Speaker 5: could you?
Speaker 1: Oh? Is that right?
Speaker 4: I don't remember like hearing that specifical.
Speaker 5: I don't think it was like maga person was like,
Speaker 5: I'll take leaded. Your car doesn't take leaded?
Speaker 1: Well that engine not destroy.
Speaker 2: My fucking car, then I don't give a shit.
Speaker 1: That's the big thing that that's why they added the
Speaker 1: lead to the gasoline was to cure engine knock and
Speaker 1: are you serious? That was like when when cars first started,
Speaker 1: they would like be running smoothly for five minutes and
Speaker 1: then the engine would just start being like should everybody
Speaker 1: in the car be like what the fucking just happened?
Speaker 1: And they could never like figure it out. And then
Speaker 1: they added lead. And then there was that famous inventor
Speaker 1: who was like, this is nothing, it's going everybody's gonna
Speaker 1: be safe. Look, I'm going to like huff it or
Speaker 1: this guy's gonna huff it at this press conference, and
Speaker 1: like the guy died. Yeah, boy, what a time.
Speaker 5: Yeah. So that's mob backs if you want to watch,
Speaker 5: like I really do, I mean like a bunch of
Speaker 5: it's like mob trials. Like it's just like like really
Speaker 5: long takes of mob mob trials like often just like
Speaker 5: you know, the stuff they had footage, the footage they
Speaker 5: had laying around the newsroom from like or you know,
Speaker 5: in the archives of low stations. But I love that ship.
Speaker 4: I love that too, because that's like the most like
Speaker 4: you're really transported to another time when you have like
Speaker 4: you can see the grain of like the video and
Speaker 4: like the audio quality and just like the shitty just everything,
Speaker 4: and it's like the opening arguments have began and John
Speaker 4: Gotti's like Jeno Vese crime family.
Speaker 5: That's what it is. And then there's just like the
Speaker 5: stuff they shot in the hallway with like no commentary
Speaker 5: on it.
Speaker 1: Yeah, people like walk zero.
Speaker 5: Yeah, like people in slacks going out, going out for
Speaker 5: a smoke, Yeah, going out to smoke a vantage.
Speaker 1: Going out to hav an affair, oh.
Speaker 5: Yeah, yeah, whatever horrible ship you did then, because all
Speaker 5: you had to do is go like one town over
Speaker 5: Cretes and you have an affair, have a second family,
Speaker 5: put a wig on and go one block over and
Speaker 5: started doing life.
Speaker 4: Unless you like back back then, were they just showing
Speaker 4: like these like shot up mobsters, like when they would
Speaker 4: like a hit, like like one of these guys got
Speaker 4: fucking snuffed out, because like I feel like in so
Speaker 4: many mob documentaries, there would be moments they would cut
Speaker 4: to like footage from the eighties and like, oh, ship
Speaker 4: that guy.
Speaker 1: Yeah, just a guy in his sit with his ass
Speaker 1: in the air on the paved for some reason.
Speaker 5: That they show that one. Particularly that's Paul Castellano, the
Speaker 5: one who got shot on the on the on the
Speaker 5: patio and he's tangled up on the tablecloth with a
Speaker 5: cigar between his teeth or whatever between. Yeah, that's a
Speaker 5: good picture. But I don't know why they showed that picture.
Speaker 4: Right, And that's that's tonight's news all right here? Yeah,
Speaker 4: correct with the weather.
Speaker 5: I guess they hated it was like when Lenny Bruce
Speaker 5: died and they put his dead body all over the
Speaker 5: news because the cops hated him. So it may have
Speaker 5: been like one of those things where they're just like,
Speaker 5: we're releasing it's just because we hate this guy so much.
Speaker 5: But okay, so mob backs is one thing. Then there's
Speaker 5: this other channel I've been watching called below the.
Speaker 1: Wait, let's hat let's take it quick break. So we're
Speaker 1: getting we're getting more search history from Chris Craft. We'll
Speaker 1: be right back and we're back. This is this is
Speaker 1: the Crofton Expert episode.
Speaker 5: Just okay, well no, I'll just go quick on this one.
Speaker 5: It's not that.
Speaker 4: You have an expertise in obscure YouTube.
Speaker 5: This one is not that obscure because the numbers on
Speaker 5: mob backs I think are pretty low as far as views.
Speaker 1: Have you heard of scribed?
Speaker 4: Have you guys heard of vivo v e v Oh? They
Speaker 4: have a lot of music videos.
Speaker 5: A tremendous number of ads on there, though there's no
Speaker 5: way to block them. You just have to watch them.
Speaker 5: So the other one is this this channel called below
Speaker 5: the Planes, Below the Planes, where it's this guy named
Speaker 5: Tom asked Jim who goes to fields in North Dakota
Speaker 5: or like old properties. He finds old properties from old
Speaker 5: maps from the nineteenth century and he finds out where
Speaker 5: there used to be a saloon and then he looks
Speaker 5: around the yard because usually the saloons like long gone,
Speaker 5: like the saloon. Right, this is like late night, late
Speaker 5: eighteen hundreds North Dakota. So like all that got well,
Speaker 5: I don't know what the fuck that's supposed to mean.
Speaker 5: Like everybody knows, you got a picture this, this is late.
Speaker 5: Everyone knows it's late eighteen hundreds North Dakota. So those
Speaker 5: buildings aren't gonna be around anymore. I have no idea
Speaker 5: what that means.
Speaker 1: But he just shows up to a field, yeah, and
Speaker 1: he's like, there's.
Speaker 5: A depression there, and there's a depression there, and that
Speaker 5: could be like an outhouse pit or a garbage pit,
Speaker 5: but he's looking at basically what we or you would
Speaker 5: see as a field. And then he goes over and
Speaker 5: he starts poking it with a big prod and he
Speaker 5: feels glass in the ground, and then he just digs
Speaker 5: and then there's like six hundred bottles in the ground.
Speaker 5: And every show he just pulls out so many fucking bottles.
Speaker 5: And look how many views he has on his goddamn channel.
Speaker 5: He has like eight hundred thousands on some of these things.
Speaker 4: The wild thing is like to your point, like the
Speaker 4: thumbnails for the videos are literally a picture of like well,
Speaker 4: like again, we'd be like, okay, it's some fucking field,
Speaker 4: but then there's like an arrow where there's like a
Speaker 4: like a weird small patch of grass, and it's like
Speaker 4: buried beside the tracks, hundreds of rare bottles, right, and.
Speaker 5: It's all outhouse pits. And he all so like digs
Speaker 5: in these outhouse bits. And finally he said something I've
Speaker 5: always wandered, they still stink. I was wondering if that
Speaker 5: like you know what I mean, like I was. They
Speaker 5: don't usually mention it, but he said, and they show
Speaker 5: there's lime in some layers, because that's the through lime
Speaker 5: on the on the outhouse contents, you know, right, you know.
Speaker 1: One and forty two year old map found in an
Speaker 1: old library led us to an absolute jackpot. He overdoes
Speaker 1: the jackpot shit a little bit.
Speaker 5: But anyway, he's a he's a fucking wizard, the guy's
Speaker 5: and he has like a team like someone someone No,
Speaker 5: this guy is digging. You get the impression now that
Speaker 5: if you just go out in your yard and just dig,
Speaker 5: you're gonna find hundreds of bottles. Like the whole earth
Speaker 5: is made of bottles. If you like this guy picks
Speaker 5: the place is obviously they're not. The whole earth isn't
Speaker 5: made of bottles. But that's what this guy makes it
Speaker 5: look like. I just be like, I think there's some
Speaker 5: bottles here, and then next thing you know, he he
Speaker 5: is down six feet and there's like one hundred bottles
Speaker 5: on the ground and they're all like from anyway, and
Speaker 5: he knows what they all are, and they're all tool top.
Speaker 5: He says, tool top. Now, if you want to have
Speaker 5: a drinking game, say you were really into blow the planes,
Speaker 5: the man says, tooltop so much that it can drive you.
Speaker 1: Top.
Speaker 4: Yeah, well there's you know, Chris, this look like it
Speaker 4: was like one of those where.
Speaker 5: An adult you don't even know what a tool top is. Huh,
Speaker 5: never heard of Tom ask jem My Goodness, So yeah,
Speaker 5: Tom asked. Jim says tooltop because tooltop means to hand
Speaker 5: blown bottle or like a blown like I don't even
Speaker 5: they used to blow bottles, you know, bottles. They used
Speaker 5: to blow glass up to up to like the century,
Speaker 5: okay up until like so like it's machine made or
Speaker 5: it's a tool top, and a tooltop means they cut
Speaker 5: the lip with a tool or there's a blob top,
Speaker 5: which is an older kind of bottle where they just
Speaker 5: applied the top. It's where they call it a blob
Speaker 5: top or an applied top where it's like they add
Speaker 5: the top after it's done because they didn't know how
Speaker 5: to do a better top. So it's like he's he
Speaker 5: knows every bottle. He's like, oh, this is a fucking
Speaker 5: flap jack style, you know, cosmetics bottle from nineteen ten,
Speaker 5: and he pulls them out one after the.
Speaker 1: Other like valuable, Like when he says the jackpot is
Speaker 1: like a jackpot for him.
Speaker 5: Yes, their bottles, no, their bottle freaks out there that
Speaker 5: he's found some bottles in North Dakota where it's like
Speaker 5: the only he finds the only example of this certain
Speaker 5: kind of soda. Oh wow, soda bottles are really valuable,
Speaker 5: like soda water, Like back then everybody drank soda water
Speaker 5: because maybe because the water was bad, because this was
Speaker 5: like North Dakota in the late eighteen hundreds is like Nowheresville, Yeah,
Speaker 5: I mean it probably still is, but you know it
Speaker 5: really was back then.
Speaker 1: That's like what's it called the show on HBO Dead
Speaker 1: with right, Like, isn't that the Dakota's Yeah, Dakota Territory.
Speaker 7: Yeah.
Speaker 4: Yeah.
Speaker 5: So he's out there a lot, and that's where he
Speaker 5: does a lot of his hunting. I mean, it's it's
Speaker 5: kind of incredible. It does get repetitive because he finds
Speaker 5: so many bottles and he knows what they are so fast.
Speaker 5: So he's just like, that's another that's another Mecato style
Speaker 5: liquor flask. That's a sheet shoe fly liquor flash with
Speaker 5: a with a with a double cut bottom or whatever.
Speaker 5: You know. He just keeps going and then he always
Speaker 5: says tool top tooltop tooltop tool to.
Speaker 4: See like with the with these finds, like when like,
Speaker 4: is he kind of motivated by the monetary gains of
Speaker 4: finding this stuff? And does he and is he like
Speaker 4: doing well? Like if he's digging out, if he's constantly
Speaker 4: digging this ship, you must have a lot of money, right.
Speaker 1: Yeah, America's youngest billionaire.
Speaker 5: He's a billionaire the old fashioned way bottles. Yeah, so
Speaker 5: he the other billionaires like, don't take him seriously. Whoa,
Speaker 5: it's nice to meet you, Elon, we're the same.
Speaker 4: Yeah, Hey, hey, you want to dig in one of
Speaker 4: my fields, loser, And he's like, you try, I can't.
Speaker 2: Find an mud. You're a rascal.
Speaker 5: Ask him.
Speaker 1: There's just something cool about a guy who like looks
Speaker 1: at our world and like sees music, you know, like
Speaker 1: see like it's just like, oh, I see, I see
Speaker 1: the secret code. I see the history of this landscape.
Speaker 1: It's incredible just underneath it, just just below the surface.
Speaker 5: And I bet everybody's digging up their mom's yard because
Speaker 5: of this guy. Yeah, somebody's finding like, oh, there's a
Speaker 5: depression right there, and then they dig it up and
Speaker 5: it's like the it's probably like you know, the main
Speaker 5: power grid or whatever, you know, yeah, but basically right
Speaker 5: you know, it's like the worthy above ground pool used
Speaker 5: to be and there's nothing down there at all. You know, Oh,
Speaker 5: there's an impression in the ground. Yeah, that's from our
Speaker 5: old above ground pool. No it isn't, Mom, shut up, mom.
Speaker 5: You know, even seen below the planes, there's bottles everywhere.
Speaker 4: This guy just like I'm watching a clip. This guy
Speaker 4: is like had like a treasure map and then it's
Speaker 4: like a hard cut and he's like pulling out like
Speaker 4: an immaculate ceramic bowl from the insane.
Speaker 5: It's insane and it makes you want to dig everywhere.
Speaker 5: But here's a mass of figuring out where to dig.
Speaker 5: And this person who runs his channel because he has
Speaker 5: like a production team someone obviously knew this guy and said, okay,
Speaker 5: you're doing this.
Speaker 4: Like tooltop, knife edge, coffin style liquor flask. Just pulled it,
Speaker 4: cir k.
Speaker 5: So he's just like and he old hat to him.
Speaker 5: If I found one of those, I would I would
Speaker 5: die happy, you know what I mean? If I found
Speaker 5: one whatever you said, coffin style. He's always talking about
Speaker 5: that coffin style liquor flask. If I found one of those.
Speaker 4: Oh he just found a tooltop drug store bottle excels
Speaker 4: your drug store yank.
Speaker 5: Oh yeah, he's so sick of drug store bottles. That
Speaker 5: makes him angry. He could tell a drug store bottle
Speaker 5: no embossing. He gets really mad. But it's not a boss.
Speaker 5: He's like sometimes he goes that should be a boss.
Speaker 5: That's the right period for it to be a boss.
Speaker 1: Is it always like loosen the dirt or is he
Speaker 1: like finding like a room down there?
Speaker 4: No, he's just like he's just like just using like
Speaker 4: a trowel and kind of being like, oh, here's a
Speaker 4: little here's a little something.
Speaker 5: Here, here's a little buddy, and then like an out
Speaker 5: house pit. He's usually founding it and he calls the
Speaker 5: use layer and the use layer of the outhouse pit
Speaker 5: means ship. Yeah, and he's always talking about, uh, we know,
Speaker 5: we know we're in an outhouse pit because there's undigested
Speaker 5: seeds all over the place. He always says that too.
Speaker 5: Then then he just like but then he said one
Speaker 5: time he said it's stank, like you could tell this
Speaker 5: is an outhouse pit, which I was wondering because he's like,
Speaker 5: this brown stuff is human waste. And I also wondered
Speaker 5: that because I thought maybe it was a kind of
Speaker 5: soil or something like that human waste.
Speaker 4: So he's like, yeah, and I got hepatitis from the
Speaker 4: last jackpot I hit, So that was fun.
Speaker 5: Yeah. He The most exciting thing that happened with some
Speaker 5: old wine bottle from like nineteen hundred still had fermented
Speaker 5: wine in it or like still had a little bit
Speaker 5: of product left in it. So when he took the
Speaker 5: bottle out of the soil and exploded in his face
Speaker 5: because the pressure had been had been kept in the
Speaker 5: so he got old wine. Yeah, he got old wine
Speaker 5: in his eye from like the last person who drank
Speaker 5: it was like pie.
Speaker 4: It also just like makes me realize, like how how
Speaker 4: little I understand about the passage of time, you know,
Speaker 4: like you're like, okay, so there was a saloon there
Speaker 4: and then what like the building probably gets raised and
Speaker 4: then like do they just leave the Like there's like
Speaker 4: all right, threw some dirt on top of what used
Speaker 4: to be here, basically like the like there's no like
Speaker 4: real excavation way to be like you got to clear
Speaker 4: all this crap.
Speaker 5: It's like junk. Like they won't even do it. Like
Speaker 5: they find like the remains of a Native American village
Speaker 5: and ship and they just want to cover it up
Speaker 5: because they just want to get on with buildings.
Speaker 1: Yeah's next one of the greatest like American archaeological sites
Speaker 1: Cochia Mound in Saint Louis. Like they discovered it as
Speaker 1: they were turning it like it it's like as impressive
Speaker 1: as like the Pyramids in Egypt. It was like wild.
Speaker 1: It had like all these different layers of like multicolored
Speaker 1: earth and they were in the process of turning it
Speaker 1: into a parking lot when somebody stopped them and was like, actually,
Speaker 1: this is like, well.
Speaker 4: Maybe one of the most impressive structures you've seen on
Speaker 4: this content.
Speaker 1: Like they imported like red clay from the fucking Mississippi,
Speaker 1: like from from like Louisiana all the way up here
Speaker 1: just to like make this giant mound. Yeah.
Speaker 5: So when they pave like a highway, and they usually
Speaker 5: push back really hard against any archaeologists to get these
Speaker 5: projects done. They they they even have you know, destroy
Speaker 5: sites just because they want to keep the project on schedule.
Speaker 5: So you know, it's very hard. So bottles this is
Speaker 5: considered just trash. But but what's neat about it is
Speaker 5: that this guy's finding, you know, bottles that say Dakota
Speaker 5: Territory on them, and I guess people collect these. So
Speaker 5: he's found a couple of bottles where he set out
Speaker 5: loud like this is worth sixteen thousand dollars. Most of
Speaker 5: the time he doesn't talk about price, but so he's
Speaker 5: making money off that. But the real genius is the
Speaker 5: person genius. I mean, uh, but the real the smart
Speaker 5: guys the guy has says produced by that channel, they're
Speaker 5: making fortune off that channel. Some of those almost all
Speaker 5: those things have two hundred thousand views on him and
Speaker 5: some of them eight hundred thousand, and so I think
Speaker 5: just someone said, like, man, Tom, we got to get
Speaker 5: you on film doing this. This is insane. You know,
Speaker 5: and he's said he's on camera. He said he's dug
Speaker 5: thousands of outhouse pits. And then in his spare time
Speaker 5: he restores like carriages from the nineteenth century. He's some
Speaker 5: kind of a I mean, I think Tom Asked him
Speaker 5: is some.
Speaker 1: Kind sort of nineteenth century fucking freak.
Speaker 5: He's like a multie like restores old stoves, like he
Speaker 5: had a stove. They showed him in his warehouse. I
Speaker 5: found it a separate video because I was just poking
Speaker 5: around looking for Tom Asked Jem videos.
Speaker 4: Like on its own, to see if they.
Speaker 5: Had any background in this guy. And they showed him
Speaker 5: in his like he's like, I'm not digging bottles right
Speaker 5: now because I forget why. He said, like I hurt
Speaker 5: my knee or something. And he's like, I'm hanging around
Speaker 5: the warehouse working on this other project is to restore
Speaker 5: this late nineteenth century stove. And he's like getting a
Speaker 5: stove back to mint condition, like the way people restore cars. Yeah,
Speaker 5: do you imagine what kind of weirdo you got to be?
Speaker 1: What if he's just a time traveler from like back then. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I used to ship right here. Oh man, I bet.
Speaker 4: A lot of corn that day. I remember that one.
Speaker 5: I bet he's I bet he's single, though, Oh yeah,
Speaker 5: imagine being his girlfriend.
Speaker 2: Oh god, you're storing a stove. Holy fuck, what are
Speaker 2: you an idiot?
Speaker 1: I bet there's a person out there for him.
Speaker 5: I bet no, he probably he probably, I mean he's
Speaker 5: probably a rock starto like yeah, stove restoration groupies. Oh,
Speaker 5: like the hottest bottle collector likely got her hear about
Speaker 5: the number, even just to get the stuff. Yeah, if
Speaker 5: you're like the hottest bottle collector, you're gonna want to
Speaker 5: hang with him because he's just gonna you could probably
Speaker 5: slip a sixteen thousand dollars SEWDA bottle into your pocket
Speaker 5: when he's not looking.
Speaker 1: All right, let's take one more break and we'll come
Speaker 1: back and hear either an overrated or an underrated and
Speaker 1: we're bad.
Speaker 5: Just one more thing about that last segment. Don't don't, seriously,
Speaker 5: don't do the drinking game tooltop. If you that guy
Speaker 5: will drive you and sane saying tooltop, I mean that
Speaker 5: you'll you know you would die, I mean tooltop, tooltop,
Speaker 5: tool will drug store bottle, drug store bottle, drunk store bottle,
Speaker 5: drunk store bottle. Yeah, I said tooltop, tooltop tools, I mean, unbelievable.
Speaker 5: My friend said I recommended the channel or my friend
Speaker 5: was watching it separately or something like because I have
Speaker 5: friends that like are into the same kind of stuff,
Speaker 5: And she was like, have you seen this? And I
Speaker 5: was like, yeah, I watched it all the time. She's like, man,
Speaker 5: that guy. Imagine. I think she might have said, like,
Speaker 5: imagine a drinking game where you said, every time he
Speaker 5: says tool top, you'd just die. So I'm not the
Speaker 5: only one. Everyone who watches that channels Like, I kind
Speaker 5: of wish you would just if it is a tooltop,
Speaker 5: you would just put it to the side and not say.
Speaker 8: It, because we're assuming it is a tool we know, Yeah,
Speaker 8: why don't you say when it's not a tooltop?
Speaker 5: How about that only when it's not a top? That's like,
Speaker 5: that's what I would say in the comments. I want
Speaker 5: to get in the comments like guy trolling.
Speaker 4: Oh, come on, ask gentlemen another if you said tool
Speaker 4: top fucking forty three.
Speaker 5: Please respond, please respond to put like my phone number

Speaker 1: It's like stand but even sadder.
Speaker 5: Do you like Crossby Stills and Nash?
Speaker 2: Anyway, I'm getting off topic. Please stop saying tool top
Speaker 2: so much, but also call me up.
Speaker 1: What Chris? What's do you think is overrated?
Speaker 5: Or underrated? Okay, underrated real quick? Just just a flat
Speaker 5: out recommendation because I want to get to some stuff.
Speaker 5: I mean I want to get you guys to get
Speaker 5: to some stuff. Underrated. This great documentary about a jazz
Speaker 5: trumpeter on the Criterion channel right now, but I'm sure
Speaker 5: you can rent it from Amazon or whatever. But it's
Speaker 5: called I called Him Morgan and it's about jazz trumpeter
Speaker 5: Lee Morgan. And first of all, it's absolutely beautifully made documentary, beautiful,
Speaker 5: like I mean, like like just to watch, like visually spectacular.
Speaker 5: And then the story is unbelievable. It's about a trumpet
Speaker 5: player who became a junkie, ended up on the street,
Speaker 5: was rehabilitated by this woman, and then this humongous twist
Speaker 5: sort of not a twist because it's a real story,
Speaker 5: but like you know, something unexpected happens.
Speaker 1: Wow.
Speaker 5: But it's just a beautiful documentary. And I watched it
Speaker 5: again last night, and I probably watched this is probably
Speaker 5: the third time I've watched it. So that's on.
Speaker 1: Their last time you recommended a documentary. All the Beauty
Speaker 1: in the Bloodshed was one of my favorite things.
Speaker 5: Oh, I'm glad, So I'm glad. I called him Morgan
Speaker 5: is so beautiful and it's it's based on this guy
Speaker 5: who met this woman who was taking a class from
Speaker 5: him at like a community college and I can't Mississippi
Speaker 5: or South Carolina or somewhere, and she was like in
Speaker 5: in her fifties or something, and he just became friends
Speaker 5: with her and asked her what her history was, and
Speaker 5: she just told him the story and he was like,
Speaker 5: what you know, like can I record you? Saying? Can
Speaker 5: I interview you? And he had an audio cassette And
Speaker 5: this whole documentary is based around this audio cassette of
Speaker 5: this interview he got with this woman. And if he
Speaker 5: hadn't taken the time to ask her where she came from,
Speaker 5: because I think it was like a maybe it was
Speaker 5: a musical appreciation class or something at a community college.
Speaker 5: I'm probably getting that wrong, but it was something where
Speaker 5: he was like, oh, what makes you interested in jazz
Speaker 5: or something? And then she told him this story, and
Speaker 5: and Lee Morgan's music's incredible too, and just also just
Speaker 5: getting into like how sad it is that, you know,
Speaker 5: the Internet has shattered like culture to the point where
Speaker 5: there's no more like little ecosystems that exist, Like jazz
Speaker 5: was such a fucking awesome yeah in the fifties and sixties,
Speaker 5: like forties, fifties, sixties, thirties, whatever, just like a place
Speaker 5: you know where it's just an amazing place where where
Speaker 5: you know, yeah, I don't know, it's.
Speaker 4: Just yeah, avant garde musical exploration was like a lot
Speaker 4: of that was really happen.
Speaker 5: Yeah, and run by African Americans, like fucking you know,
Speaker 5: like like an unbelievable like a subculture, like cultures, different cultures,
Speaker 5: like you know, yeah, in the same country or I mean,
Speaker 5: it doesn't matter, you'll get it from the from the documentary.
Speaker 5: It's a beautiful documentary.
Speaker 1: So then the little like local community colleges and city colleges.
Speaker 5: Yeah, and that professor, and the professor just said, hey man,
Speaker 5: you're an older lady. What are you doing taking this
Speaker 5: class or whatever. It's like, well this happened, and he's like,
Speaker 5: oh my god. And then he has this one dusty
Speaker 5: cassette and they show him in his house, the professor
Speaker 5: guy with dreadlocks and stuff, and his he has the
Speaker 5: dustiest boom box. It made me like, I was like,
Speaker 5: my god, this makes me feel better about how dusty
Speaker 5: my shit is. I mean, he has the dustiest tape
Speaker 5: and the dustiest boom box I ever.
Speaker 4: Saw, and right, and like the only things that don't
Speaker 4: have dust on it are the play pause, stop button
Speaker 4: and volume.
Speaker 5: Mae's unbelievable.
Speaker 1: Unbelievable.
Speaker 5: I mean, the thing was like coated and dust so overrated.
Speaker 5: I was just gonna say, federal politics as opposed to
Speaker 5: local federal politics at this point is just like a
Speaker 5: full on distraction of people just yelling at each other.
Speaker 5: They're not even legislating. So everything should be local. Everybody
Speaker 5: should be invested in local politics and state politics. And
Speaker 5: that's just to tie into like talking about I have
Speaker 5: this new thing on NPR and Nashville which we can
Speaker 5: talk about later. Through the through the election, I kind
Speaker 5: of ended up on an NPR show, a local NPR
Speaker 5: show with a with my own like little feature called
Speaker 5: Nashville Confidential with Chris Crofton and it's on twice a
Speaker 5: month on this daily show here in Nashville called This
Speaker 5: is Nashville, but it's it's on NPR, you know. So
Speaker 5: I'm like, yeah, I'm like reaching a lot of people.
Speaker 4: Yeah.
Speaker 5: So I did a whole one about my election that
Speaker 5: comes out tomorrow and it's twenty five minutes long. So
Speaker 5: for twenty five minutes, I'm going to be the only
Speaker 5: thing on Nashville NPR. Oh wow, which is pretty I
Speaker 5: mean it's a million person sort of reach.
Speaker 4: Yeah, oh yeah, Yeah, that's a big universe of listeners.
Speaker 1: Radio is still real, man, still reaching people.
Speaker 4: And I love hearing that, Chris. But so where's our cut? Well,
Speaker 4: you know.
Speaker 5: We can talk about that off the air, some pale dude.
Speaker 4: That's so wait. So just from when you were like
Speaker 4: obviously you were getting a lot of attention because you're
Speaker 4: so outspoken and of completely shattering the mold of like yeah,
Speaker 4: no person pursuing office like that, like just by virtue
Speaker 4: of that, they were like, hey, we would love to
Speaker 4: hear more from you. Is that kind of how it
Speaker 4: worked out.
Speaker 5: Well, it was really through the book originally, but when
Speaker 5: I came back to Nashville, I was a featured author
Speaker 5: at the Southern Festival Books, which is what I used
Speaker 5: as like my sort of gold date to be back
Speaker 5: in Nashville from LA because I was dragging my feet
Speaker 5: about just like fucking packing, right, So I was like,
Speaker 5: I have to be back in Nashville by October sixteenth
Speaker 5: for this Southern Festival Books, which I you can only
Speaker 5: imaginehe I had in my head that I was going
Speaker 5: to ride it on an elephant the Keys to the
Speaker 5: City or something. Instead of spoke, I spoke in an
Speaker 5: upstairs conference room at the library to like eleven people,
Speaker 5: two of which were my mom and my brother. You know,
Speaker 5: it's actually a pretty good turnout for it. Yeah, it
Speaker 5: was like, you know, it was like I forgot it.
Speaker 5: It's like books, so you know what's gonna come so
Speaker 5: unless you're like Oprah or whatever. But after it was over,
Speaker 5: I met this woman who ran the show This is Nashville,
Speaker 5: which was this new it's like the flagship. They're trying
Speaker 5: to basically make a show in Nashville that would maybe
Speaker 5: even be picked up nationally. It's called This is Nashville.
Speaker 5: It's a live, five day a week at noon talk show,
Speaker 5: call in show, having guests live. It's live. It's the
Speaker 5: main thing. It's like a live daily show. They fired
Speaker 5: the lady who originally got me involved in the show.
Speaker 5: She was the executive producer, so it was like this
Speaker 5: big thing. I was not a part of the show
Speaker 5: at that point. I had done one report for her.
Speaker 5: I ended up doing a report on Mule Day because
Speaker 5: I said to this woman Andrea, she like my book,
Speaker 5: so I said, hey, do you guys need a correspondent
Speaker 5: for the show like that would do stuff that's kind
Speaker 5: of odd, you know, like Mule Day or the catfish
Speaker 5: races in Paris, Tennessee, or like the bell Witch Cave.
Speaker 5: And she was like, I don't know what any of
Speaker 5: that is because she had just come in to run
Speaker 5: that show from Kansas City. So I saw an opening
Speaker 5: because I was like, you're this is a person from
Speaker 5: Kansas City, so she's not going to know this like
Speaker 5: Nationville stuff. So she was nice enough to bring me
Speaker 5: on for Mule Day, which you guys can find. I
Speaker 5: could share it somehow or when I post the show
Speaker 5: on my on my Instagram. I'll put links to it
Speaker 5: or whatever. But yeah, yeah, I've already promoted it on
Speaker 5: my show. But it's me going to Mule Day and
Speaker 5: interviewing people with a with a you know, just like
Speaker 5: a fucking zoom recorder.
Speaker 1: What is Mule Day.
Speaker 5: It's a festival. It's been going on since the eighteen
Speaker 5: forties in rural like an hour outside of Nashville.
Speaker 1: And it's just like a.
Speaker 5: Mule parade, and like, yeah, people camp out all week
Speaker 5: and they have like cover bands and stuff. You know.
Speaker 5: It's just kind of a jamboree that I always read
Speaker 5: about when I lived here in the early two thousands,
Speaker 5: and I want wonder what it was about. So anyway,
Speaker 5: the new guy, the guy who's in charge of the
Speaker 5: show now, just said, hey, I love that Mule Day thing.
Speaker 5: Would you like to do a regular thing? So I said,
Speaker 5: hell yeah. And I think the election helped, just in
Speaker 5: the sense that thirteen thousand votes meant I had an audience.
Speaker 5: I think, you know, I think that was just sort
Speaker 5: of a I don't think they maybe looked at it
Speaker 5: that cynically, but I mean, I think you could say
Speaker 5: my whole report tomorrow is about fascism and it's going
Speaker 5: to be on the fucking radio.
Speaker 1: Wow.
Speaker 5: And it's it's very very because that's what I ran on.
Speaker 5: But the thing is, when I ran on it, people
Speaker 5: loved that message. I mean they were dying for it,
Speaker 5: you know what I mean. That's the thing is like
Speaker 5: if I just went to them, I think if I
Speaker 5: hadn't run with this, like, oh, I just want to
Speaker 5: talk to talk about fascism for twenty five.
Speaker 4: Minutes, They're like, who the fuck are you?
Speaker 5: Yeah, they might say like, well, well, you know, but
Speaker 5: I had people thanking me for saying the things we took,
Speaker 5: the things you talk about on this show all the time,
Speaker 5: just like that. Billionaires have corrupted things to the point
Speaker 5: where if you are dealing with the definition of fascism,
Speaker 5: like the economic version of fascism is just private interest
Speaker 5: taking over the ostensibly public government. And you know, we
Speaker 5: couldn't have that worse right, And that's why the federal
Speaker 5: government is like such a joke. I mean, it's just
Speaker 5: like been everyone there has been paid to do nothing,
Speaker 5: I mean, just to jam stuff up, so there's just
Speaker 5: no way to even legislate. So now I realized, shit,
Speaker 5: I'm doing this report about why I ran for office.
Speaker 5: That's what the one that's coming out tomorrow is, And
Speaker 5: why I ran for office is because I looked at
Speaker 5: the roads in my neighborhood, and I looked at the
Speaker 5: unhoused people in my neighborhood. And then I realized that
Speaker 5: they were giving you know, like over a billion dollars
Speaker 5: in public money to the NFL to build a new stadium.
Speaker 5: And I was just like, this doesn't compute, you know
Speaker 5: what I mean. That was how it really started for me.
Speaker 5: So I went and asked this guy. I just parked
Speaker 5: my car. I was like, I'm going to talk to
Speaker 5: this guy. So I ran down there with this microphone.
Speaker 5: They gave me this all in one microphone that has
Speaker 5: a what do you call it, a SD card in
Speaker 5: the bottom of it. It's like a standalone levels itself.
Speaker 5: It's called a yellow Tech. I don't know anyways, just
Speaker 5: a one for me. It's like you know, old man journalists.
Speaker 5: I mean, it's like press one button and you don't
Speaker 5: have to do anything right right, and it's all in there,
Speaker 5: I mean except forget someone to take the SD card
Speaker 5: out with a pair of tweezers or whatever and put
Speaker 5: it in them in the in the beat tradition, whatever
Speaker 5: happens to those SD cards after you've taken out of
Speaker 5: the I have no idea. Whatever you have to make, yeah,
Speaker 5: and then you put it in, Yeah, you drop it
Speaker 5: in the federal nail box.
Speaker 4: What kind of SD card is it? Tool top?
Speaker 5: Who knows? Yeah, it could be. I think it's a
Speaker 5: toll charge. I think it's a large Yeah. Yeah, it's
Speaker 5: like a standard super dupe. I was the stands for
Speaker 5: super Dupa, right, yeah? Yeah, yeah, standard super duper cards.
Speaker 5: So I just yeah, I send that straight to I
Speaker 5: take it to either photo mat or.
Speaker 4: And I asked the kind guy there to help me, please.
Speaker 5: Here, Yeah, I'd like to develop this SD card.
Speaker 1: Oh jeez, he's back.
Speaker 4: Yeah, the guy who has the audio files on the
Speaker 4: SD card, Yeah, I don't know. He doesn't have an email,
Speaker 4: he says.
Speaker 5: So if you guys listen, I will send you guys
Speaker 5: the thing for tomorrow when it's when it's out and.
Speaker 1: They tomorrow being Friday or tomorrow.
Speaker 5: Tomorrow being you guys are this show is going to
Speaker 5: be on next tuesdayisoe?
Speaker 1: Yeah?
Speaker 5: This is tomorrow's Thursday in real life, tomorrow's Thanksgiving, So
Speaker 5: it's coming out on Thanksgiving and then there's a and
Speaker 5: the show is called This is Nashville and the host
Speaker 5: is named Khalil Echlone.
Speaker 1: Well we'll link off to this on Tuesday.
Speaker 4: Yeah. Well, Christy, now there's there's some really I think
Speaker 4: consequential news in the world of music that we also
Speaker 4: really we must get your take.
Speaker 1: We have to get your take on.
Speaker 9: You remember Hall and Oats, we and yeahs I've seen
Speaker 9: Oats is mustache and a bag at the Rock and
Speaker 9: Roll Hall of Fame.
Speaker 1: Is that real?
Speaker 5: No, it's not.
Speaker 1: That would be.
Speaker 5: But then you're like dismantled, so it just looks like
Speaker 5: a bag of hair. It is like he didn't want
Speaker 5: it reconstructed.
Speaker 1: Our writer JM calls Hall of Notes your parents dentist's
Speaker 1: favorite musical duo. I it's not, I think right, Well.
Speaker 4: Then I'm guessing I'm your parents' favorite dentist.
Speaker 5: Or case that was like a seventeen year old who's
Speaker 5: never done anything separate play video games.
Speaker 1: Yeah that's right.
Speaker 2: Hall and Oates are no Minecraft.
Speaker 1: No, but all of Notes have some hits. What happened
Speaker 1: to jazz man, holloas jazz and yacht rock? Baby? But
Speaker 1: right now, Hall is suing Oats, though nobody knows exactly why.
Speaker 1: Court documents are sealed, but it's just been revealed that
Speaker 1: Hall filed emotion for a temporary restraining order against Oates
Speaker 1: and Darryl Hall apparently went on Bill Maher's Club random
Speaker 1: show last year, Switch Again. It looks like, yeah, just
Speaker 1: an anthropomorphic can of XE bodies right, the renovated suburb room.
Speaker 1: It's so awful. But anyways, it's like Bill Maher and
Speaker 1: his other really friends, like famous friends who are like
Speaker 1: everyone else is a fucking idiot except us, right.
Speaker 4: Right right, Daryl Hall narcissist exactly.
Speaker 1: Man.
Speaker 5: Every single version was like that has gotten into like
Speaker 5: cancel culture, Like you know, I'm sure yeah Hall is
Speaker 5: probably like I'm so tired of being told what to do?
Speaker 1: Yes, of course, I mean was it.
Speaker 4: I mean, from my perspective, right, Daryl Hall, I was
Speaker 4: like just narrowly. I was like, well, he was the
Speaker 4: one whose voice was killing it all the time, so
Speaker 4: I'm like, that's that's the guy. And what we're just saying,
Speaker 4: like John Oates was just kind of like they get
Speaker 4: like you're just playing guitar right and backing them up,
Speaker 4: Like is there like was the perception like John Oates
Speaker 4: wasn't doing much like Daryl Hall was, because like the
Speaker 4: way Daryl Hall talks, he talks like he talks like
Speaker 4: he's like I was doing all the heavy lifting. Okay,
Speaker 4: we were just making some ship.
Speaker 5: You've heard him say that he's acting like that for real.
Speaker 1: Darryl Hall said, you think John Oates is my partner.
Speaker 1: He's my business partner. He's not my creative partner.
Speaker 2: Okay, yeah, oh my god.
Speaker 5: Yeah, So like he's treating he's treating John Oates like
Speaker 5: he's our Garfunkle.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I guess.
Speaker 5: So, yeah, he's trying to do how.
Speaker 1: It has gone down in pop culture. His like there's
Speaker 1: that comedy band Garfunkle and Oates, that's like these are
Speaker 1: the also rams right famous duos.
Speaker 5: But oh right, I didn't even get that. Oh my god.
Speaker 5: I just you just explained that I've never understood that.
Speaker 5: I was like Garfunkle and Oates is somehow just because
Speaker 5: I was involved in the Los Angeles comedy scene. They
Speaker 5: were in my you know, yeah never, but I was like,
Speaker 5: I get it.
Speaker 4: Kate mccoochee and Ricky Lindhome, right.
Speaker 5: You never got it. I never understood. Man, that's one
Speaker 5: those graduate school jokes.
Speaker 1: Yeah, to your point, like Darryl Hills or Darryl Hall
Speaker 1: always seemed like both the one who gets the most
Speaker 1: credit and also the one who's probably the most has
Speaker 1: the most public facing sociopathic tendencies and right, so it's
Speaker 1: always interesting to take a step back and be like,
Speaker 1: is he really deserves the credit?
Speaker 5: Did they say why oats or no?
Speaker 4: Everyone's like it's completely flabbergasted.
Speaker 1: Two.
Speaker 4: Yeah, it's just like he's getting a restraining order and
Speaker 4: they're like everyone's just describing as like mysterious.
Speaker 1: I don't know if it's under seal.
Speaker 5: Okay, well I don't Darryl Hall, you know, I think
Speaker 5: at one time was was was probably a nice person,
Speaker 5: but I mean, he seems like ever since he started
Speaker 5: having that show live at Darryl's house, I think was
Speaker 5: off the air now for a while, but it was
Speaker 5: on time six years from I'm not familiar with us.
Speaker 4: It was a fucking it was like come fucking worship
Speaker 4: me at my house and we'll perform a little bit.
Speaker 4: But also like see low like all kinds of artists
Speaker 4: would go and perform and like they would maybe do
Speaker 4: one of their songs, you do what maybe do a
Speaker 4: Holland Oaates cover and then just like talk about like
Speaker 4: just talking like with Darryl and his like you know
Speaker 4: session guys that he's with.
Speaker 5: Yeah, and like some sort of like studio made of
Speaker 5: repossessed barnwood or you know, ress repurposed, repurpose repossessed barn
Speaker 5: woods a different thing. That's when you get to take
Speaker 5: it back. But you know, it was a nasty show
Speaker 5: in the sense that it was like I saw the
Speaker 5: side of Darryl Hall where it's like he won't he
Speaker 5: thinks people want to watch meat dinner, you know, like
Speaker 5: they ate dinner on the show and drank wine on
Speaker 5: the show. And it's the same way I felt about
Speaker 5: watching that show with any any show where rich people
Speaker 5: eat food and that's the show. Is like I can't
Speaker 5: even make me so angry. I can't even Who's the
Speaker 5: guy who directed like Spider Man and all also like Swingers,
Speaker 5: John John Favreau. Yeah, yeah, yeah, that guy, Like he
Speaker 5: had a show where it was like dinner with John
Speaker 5: Favreau And I immediately I had nothing against John favreaull
Speaker 5: and I immediately hated, Like I was like that motherfucker.
Speaker 1: Right that you get and the podcasting. Yeah, no, just
Speaker 1: like I'm a rich person and people will necessarily be
Speaker 1: interested in seeing me hang out with my friends, and because.
Speaker 4: Like you know, my other friends are also rich and
Speaker 4: famous too, so like in that way they could hang out.
Speaker 5: Yeah, just Daryl, No, Daryl Hall, just Daryl Hall. In
Speaker 5: that on that show, you realized he had become so
Speaker 5: surrounded with douchebags that he obviously thought he was like
Speaker 5: the ruler of the earth. He was so surrounded by
Speaker 5: yes people, and he's in his bubble. He probably never
Speaker 5: hasked to leave his compound, and then just people, famous
Speaker 5: people come visit him, like yeah, promo show. You know,
Speaker 5: you'd be on Darryl Hall's show, and John Oates was
Speaker 5: nowhere to be seen on that show. So I don't
Speaker 5: know where John Oates was, but he was not getting
Speaker 5: any of that money, I don't think from a live
Speaker 5: at Darryl's house. He pitched live at Oates's house and
Speaker 5: nobody's like sorry.
Speaker 7: Sorry, Yeah, they're like what's called called bowl of oats
Speaker 7: with John Oates's meal, live with his back house.
Speaker 4: Right and Oates's grain shed. Oh boy. But like the
Speaker 4: fucking the Darryl. There's one Live at Daryl's House episode
Speaker 4: that I will never like. Back when there was like
Speaker 4: DVR t VO type shit, I always kept it on
Speaker 4: there because there's an episode where se Lo is performing
Speaker 4: at his house and se Lo is a fucking obviously
Speaker 4: like his he's like a great like he can sing
Speaker 4: right and they're singing I can't go for that, and
Speaker 4: like Selo is just like doing his own version, put
Speaker 4: a little spice on it, and then you can tell
Speaker 4: Darryl Hall is kind of like he's like, this fucking
Speaker 4: guy thinks he's gonna fucking outdo me. This shit's called
Speaker 4: Live at Darryl's House. And then Darryl Hall comes in
Speaker 4: for like the second verse, and the way he comes in,
Speaker 4: it's like you can tell he's like, I gotta summon
Speaker 4: every bit of energy. I have to fucking just blow
Speaker 4: out se Loo right now because he's out doing me
Speaker 4: on my own show. And I was like, ah, but
Speaker 4: when I saw that, I was like, Okay, you can't even.
Speaker 1: You can't even just the monitors pointing to his headphones
Speaker 1: being like take me up, take me out.
Speaker 9: Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, I can't go no.
Speaker 5: Yeah.
Speaker 2: He goes, I can't go for being.
Speaker 4: And like he just tried. Yeah anyway, so you hate
Speaker 4: to see it, but who knows. I'm sure it all
Speaker 4: it's probably all boiling down to some disagreement over like
Speaker 4: rights and Royal going to get more money or so,
Speaker 4: or maybe John Oates like like performed a songs.
Speaker 2: What I fucking say, John?
Speaker 5: Or yeah, John Oates said, like John Oates implied that
Speaker 5: he Well, I guess you couldn't sue someone for just
Speaker 5: implying that they wrote more than or something, right, But
Speaker 5: John Oates is probably the victim here, I'm guessing. I mean,
Speaker 5: the guy's been second banana already, and for this guy
Speaker 5: to sue him on top of that just seems cruel
Speaker 5: and unusual, especially when he has all that Darryl Garrel's
Speaker 5: house money and he's been eating lobster on TV while
Speaker 5: while Oats is at home eating TV dinners.
Speaker 1: Yeah yeah, you know, with this half the money nothing
Speaker 1: more humbles.
Speaker 8: Yeah, So come Hall versus Oats loser? Yeah, you want
Speaker 8: to hang out, You want to have a drink in
Speaker 8: this hall or you want to hang out in some Oats.
Speaker 5: So Hall said. So Hall and Oates have this song
Speaker 5: called don't I'm just a kid. Don't make me feel
Speaker 5: like a man on one of their earlier records, which
Speaker 5: is a I think it's on Abandoned luncheon At. Their
Speaker 5: early stuff is great. I think they were probably nice
Speaker 5: back then, both of them, maybe because they were like
Speaker 5: came up from you know, nothing, really. I don't think
Speaker 5: any of them like their dad was anybody or anything.
Speaker 5: I think they just came up from Philadelphia and they
Speaker 5: loved R and B and they they you know, they
Speaker 5: made some good R and B songs, and then they
Speaker 5: they were also kind of a little folk here and
Speaker 5: the beginning and that that's Abandoned Luncheonet, which is my shit.
Speaker 5: It's kind of like easy listening kind of stuff. When
Speaker 5: the morning comes, there's a song I recommend highly off
Speaker 5: of band in Lunchonet. Anyway, they the hell am I
Speaker 5: talking about brain wipe? Remember when I had a brain wipe?
Speaker 5: We had to stop the show and I'd eat.
Speaker 2: A hard.
Speaker 4: John Oates, is that where you're gonna say? Oh?
Speaker 5: So I had a radio show in Nashville and I
Speaker 5: was always trying to get the guys from Bread to
Speaker 5: call in the band Bread Ye.
Speaker 1: The show was called Yah Yes.
Speaker 5: It was on from two thousand and five thousand and nine,
Speaker 5: and we realized we had no nobody listening to us,
Speaker 5: like nobody from management, so we just went crazy. And anyway,
Speaker 5: they I was just trying to get Bread to call
Speaker 5: in because I knew a couple of the guys from
Speaker 5: the band Bread lived in Nashville, and no one ever did.
Speaker 5: But one time I played I'm just a kid, Don't
Speaker 5: make Me Feel like a man, and I was like,
Speaker 5: that sounds creepy. And we got a phone call from
Speaker 5: one of the guys who played in the Hall and
Speaker 5: Oates band, and he said, we were all like thirty
Speaker 5: and we had to play that song and it gave
Speaker 5: us the creeps, and we we also think that sounds creepy.
Speaker 5: That was that was like for me, that felt like,
Speaker 5: I don't know, they agreed, that felt like finding a
Speaker 5: whole teapot under the planes, a tool top tea pot,
Speaker 5: tool top, teapot.
Speaker 4: Top Pothecary from the Dakota Territories.
