Speaker 1: I think when you're having fun. Not to sound like

15
00:01:02,760 --> 00:01:04,200
Speaker 1: a cliche, but time really does fly.

16
00:01:06,360 --> 00:01:06,880
Speaker 4: And I was.

17
00:01:06,800 --> 00:01:10,199

18
00:01:10,240 --> 00:01:13,520
Speaker 1: has passed, you got to be doing something right. Here

00:01:13,520 --> 00:01:16,959
Speaker 1: we are at our fifth anniversary, and still in my

20
00:01:17,080 --> 00:01:20,039
Speaker 1: mind it feels like maybe this is our second or

21
00:01:20,680 --> 00:01:23,360
Speaker 1: maybe third anniversary or Quest Love Supreme. We've been on

22
00:01:23,440 --> 00:01:26,360
Speaker 1: for five years, five crazy years. Just to give you

23
00:01:26,360 --> 00:01:28,720
Speaker 1: guys some background. Of course, you're all die hard, so

24
00:01:28,720 --> 00:01:31,000
Speaker 1: I don't even think I need to explain to you

25
00:01:31,080 --> 00:01:31,800
Speaker 1: what this is.

26
00:01:32,080 --> 00:01:35,120
Speaker 3: But you know, just in case you were late comers,

27
00:01:35,160 --> 00:01:36,600

28
00:01:36,520 --> 00:01:39,760
Speaker 1: Lot of people discovered us in a lot of our

29
00:01:39,800 --> 00:01:40,600
Speaker 1: old episodes.

30
00:01:41,760 --> 00:01:43,360
Speaker 3: The qlex actually.

31
00:01:43,000 --> 00:01:43,600
Speaker 4: Came up.

32
00:01:45,280 --> 00:01:50,440
Speaker 1: When I was like knee deep my tenure teaching at NYU.

33
00:01:50,880 --> 00:01:53,320
Speaker 1: I talked there for like five years, shout out to

34
00:01:53,320 --> 00:01:56,760
Speaker 1: all my students that made it, that are now making

35
00:01:56,800 --> 00:01:58,720
Speaker 1: more money than I am.

36
00:02:01,760 --> 00:02:02,920
Speaker 4: But you know, even though I.

37
00:02:02,840 --> 00:02:04,880
Speaker 1: Was having a ball playing professor over there, you know,

38
00:02:04,920 --> 00:02:07,920

Speaker 3: The same lessons that you're teaching now. So I was like, okay.

41
00:02:13,320 --> 00:02:15,560
Speaker 1: So at the time, like my standard for what I

42
00:02:15,800 --> 00:02:18,640
Speaker 1: liked in a radio show was a show called The

43
00:02:18,680 --> 00:02:22,160
Speaker 1: Gordon Gartrell Show, and that was hosted by q alys's

44

Speaker 4: the dream of this man.

76
00:04:12,680 --> 00:04:15,560
Speaker 3: We did we talked about uh, we did talk about

77
00:04:15,600 --> 00:04:16,040
Speaker 3: it a lot.

78
00:04:16,120 --> 00:04:19,920
Speaker 5: And you know, the thing is about you and what

79
00:04:20,400 --> 00:04:23,880
Speaker 5: and once I started working with you that I kind

80
00:04:23,880 --> 00:04:26,440
Speaker 5: of adopted, is this this strange sense of like.

81
00:04:27,880 --> 00:04:31,400
Speaker 3: Fuck everything. You know, we're going to do this stuff.

82
00:04:31,040 --> 00:04:33,719
Speaker 5: And we're going to do it over and over again

83
00:04:33,760 --> 00:04:37,480
Speaker 5: for like the Tonight's show for years and and and

84
00:04:37,480 --> 00:04:42,200
Speaker 5: and when you started the podcast, I didn't I didn't know.

85
00:04:42,720 --> 00:04:44,800
Speaker 5: I didn't have any preconceptions about whether it was going

86
00:04:44,880 --> 00:04:48,240
Speaker 5: to last or not either way, but I just kind

87
00:04:48,279 --> 00:04:50,120
Speaker 5: of knew if you're associated with it, it's just one

88
00:04:50,160 --> 00:04:52,280
Speaker 5: of those things where it's like you plug away every day.

89
00:04:52,279 --> 00:04:56,520
Speaker 5: You just keep working, like I guess, like a workaholic.

90
00:04:56,920 --> 00:04:59,120
Speaker 1: And then it's five years later, and then it's.

91
00:04:59,000 --> 00:05:04,279
Speaker 5: Five years later and it's successful, and I'm sure you get.

92
00:05:04,160 --> 00:05:06,760
Speaker 3: As much positive feedback as I do about the show.

93
00:05:07,000 --> 00:05:09,919
Speaker 1: Well, I feel like you're the real heart of the show, Steve,

94
00:05:10,000 --> 00:05:14,720
Speaker 1: because you're actually an active contact with I mean, they're

95
00:05:14,760 --> 00:05:18,960
Speaker 1: now the Sugar Heights. I almost of the people that

96
00:05:19,000 --> 00:05:21,600
Speaker 1: I hear almost guarantee that forty percent of them are

97
00:05:21,680 --> 00:05:23,920
Speaker 1: probably from your your Sugar.

98
00:05:23,680 --> 00:05:28,440
Speaker 5: Network, right, but we do not. Nobody calls we're not

99
00:05:28,560 --> 00:05:30,640
Speaker 5: sugar rights. Nobody said that's not a word.

100
00:05:30,839 --> 00:05:35,799
Speaker 4: Okay, but you get hate mill already.

101
00:05:37,440 --> 00:05:40,840
Speaker 5: But we were talking before the show about that, and

102
00:05:40,960 --> 00:05:44,279
Speaker 5: it's a real thing. QLs is five years old, the

103
00:05:44,320 --> 00:05:47,000
Speaker 5: Sugar Network is three and a half years old. So

104
00:05:47,360 --> 00:05:49,559
Speaker 5: we're right behind you, and it's sort of a mini

105
00:05:50,080 --> 00:05:52,760
Speaker 5: version of this. It's just music nerds talking about music

106
00:05:52,800 --> 00:05:53,239
Speaker 5: and life.

107
00:05:53,720 --> 00:05:56,080
Speaker 4: Yeah, and it's the real heart of the show. It's

108
00:05:56,080 --> 00:05:58,440
Speaker 4: the real heart of the show. Let's let's let's bring

109
00:05:58,480 --> 00:06:00,000
Speaker 4: some other people onto.

110
00:06:00,200 --> 00:06:03,200
Speaker 1: Well, I'll ask you who who, Well, I'll ask you

111
00:06:03,200 --> 00:06:06,440
Speaker 1: when we're all together, who should we bring next with us?

112
00:06:06,680 --> 00:06:08,000
Speaker 4: Should we bringing on fant Tagelo?

113
00:06:09,400 --> 00:06:12,080
Speaker 3: You're asking me, Yeah, it's your show as well.

114
00:06:17,240 --> 00:06:20,159
Speaker 4: So actually.

115
00:06:21,240 --> 00:06:24,320
Speaker 3: With Sherman's him here to me, you bring the.

116
00:06:25,880 --> 00:06:29,760
Speaker 4: Red red wine? Okay. So the reason why.

117
00:06:29,600 --> 00:06:33,080
Speaker 1: We have to use Jimmy Liggans drunk for fans, I

118
00:06:33,080 --> 00:06:36,479
Speaker 1: think I know why Frante comes alive always during the

119
00:06:36,600 --> 00:06:40,560
Speaker 1: Christmas episodes, which is always probably our most humorous ones.

120
00:06:40,560 --> 00:06:43,680
Speaker 1: But we got to make a custom you know, a

121
00:06:43,760 --> 00:06:47,320
Speaker 1: custom theme for fon Tigelo, because Frante makes all the

122
00:06:47,320 --> 00:06:48,360
Speaker 1: themes for everyone else.

123
00:06:48,600 --> 00:06:50,760
Speaker 4: You know, hey man, it's you.

124
00:06:50,760 --> 00:06:52,200
Speaker 6: Know, it's I just try to do what I can

125
00:06:52,320 --> 00:06:55,160
Speaker 6: just to make the ship hot man, make it you know, exciting,

126
00:06:55,240 --> 00:06:56,960
Speaker 6: and you know, when I was asked to come on this,

127
00:06:57,400 --> 00:06:59,200
Speaker 6: I'm always looking at ways just to make it dope

128
00:06:59,240 --> 00:07:01,320
Speaker 6: and just ways that I can add value and you know,

129
00:07:01,440 --> 00:07:03,440
Speaker 6: just take the shit to the next level. So now

130
00:07:03,520 --> 00:07:04,599
Speaker 6: it's been it's been a blast.

131
00:07:04,640 --> 00:07:04,800
Speaker 3: Man.

132
00:07:05,240 --> 00:07:07,800
Speaker 1: Like if Steve is the spirit of the show, you're

133
00:07:07,839 --> 00:07:12,080
Speaker 1: definitely the most down to earth, grounded in reality stage

134
00:07:12,160 --> 00:07:12,240
Speaker 1: of
