I 0:00:14.360 --> 0:00:17.360 am MC and Gaily joined by my co host and husband, 0:00:17.760 --> 0:00:24.600 c J. Tolodono. Today, well, I only had the first 0:00:24.640 --> 0:00:28.040 part worked out in my rain. Well, okay, so today 0:00:28.080 --> 0:00:30.160 we have an awesome guest. We have a fun topic. 0:00:30.240 --> 0:00:32.680 Though there was as much conversation over you've got nothing 0:00:32.720 --> 0:00:34.160 you want to say to me? Now, I was gonna 0:00:34.560 --> 0:00:36.159 this is a lead up, This is a lead up 0:00:36.159 --> 0:00:39.440 into I was gonna say, your father an avid listener, 0:00:39.600 --> 0:00:42.040 your parents are avid listeners of the show, and he 0:00:42.200 --> 0:00:45.840 complimented how I introduced the show, how rolled into the show. 0:00:45.920 --> 0:00:48.600 That's why I was trying to do it really well, 0:00:48.800 --> 0:00:50.640 trying to make your dad proud. I was trying to 0:00:50.680 --> 0:00:52.800 do my dad is proud of me. Okay, but I 0:00:52.840 --> 0:00:55.960 was trying to do it really like professional. But then 0:00:56.040 --> 0:01:01.639 I didn't have anything passed your aime planned out. So 0:01:01.720 --> 0:01:04.080 that's why when I said today, I was like, oh no, 0:01:04.120 --> 0:01:06.720 we don't go into the topic, and we're not right 0:01:06.720 --> 0:01:10.240 into the guest, and you know, I messed up. Honestly, 0:01:10.360 --> 0:01:13.040 it's episode by episode whether either of us has a 0:01:13.120 --> 0:01:17.560 nice smooth intro. I would have said, how are you doing? Okay, 0:01:17.920 --> 0:01:20.520 how are you doing? Doing great? I mean you know 0:01:20.520 --> 0:01:24.000 how I'm doing. I know how you're doing. You really 0:01:24.040 --> 0:01:27.839 talked today, not? I mean today has just been silly. Um. 0:01:27.880 --> 0:01:30.679 I want to bring in our guests and that done 0:01:30.840 --> 0:01:33.240 with his wife. No, no, we'll catch up. I just 0:01:33.280 --> 0:01:36.440 want Joe, because Joe is waiting patiently. I'm excited that 0:01:36.480 --> 0:01:39.120 he's here. You may know Joe very very funny comedian. 0:01:39.160 --> 0:01:43.080 We came up with so many, so many jokes. What 0:01:43.319 --> 0:01:45.840 Joe could it be? You may know him from his 0:01:45.920 --> 0:01:49.480 Comedy Central half hour Ladies and Gentlemen. Joke was allah 0:01:49.680 --> 0:01:56.800 he Joe, I mean you're You're on this show earlier 0:01:56.800 --> 0:01:59.240 than I thought you'd be. Yeah. Yeah, I can't believe 0:01:59.280 --> 0:02:01.840 you had to go to this earlier. We didn't have 0:02:01.960 --> 0:02:07.040 to go to you. No, nobody canceled. I actually wanted 0:02:07.120 --> 0:02:10.840 you and I had two topics that I pitched to 0:02:11.000 --> 0:02:14.040 c J. Two pitch to you, and then I it 0:02:14.080 --> 0:02:16.280 was reported back to me that you said no. No, 0:02:16.400 --> 0:02:19.520 he did not. I kept it open for him. I thought, 0:02:19.560 --> 0:02:22.120 you know, I thought I had landed on what would 0:02:22.120 --> 0:02:24.280 be a pretty funny topic. But I guess it was 0:02:24.440 --> 0:02:27.320 narrower than I anticipated. Well, there's a lot. I mean, 0:02:27.800 --> 0:02:30.399 this show can come together at the last second sometimes. 0:02:30.520 --> 0:02:32.680 And I was texting you as we were going to sleep, 0:02:32.720 --> 0:02:34.680 and so I was just like, whatever, Joe, whatever you 0:02:34.720 --> 0:02:39.120 want and Megan, because Megan had suggested greatest national anthems, 0:02:39.240 --> 0:02:43.720 and I think I suggested like athletes who attempted musical careers. 0:02:43.880 --> 0:02:47.320 And you said, songs written this is the original topic. 0:02:47.400 --> 0:02:51.360 Songs written about sports teams. Yeah, just I don't know. 0:02:51.440 --> 0:02:54.560 From my experience in the places that I've lived, there 0:02:54.560 --> 0:02:58.560 have been a lot of cheesy songs written for Like 0:02:58.600 --> 0:03:01.920 I grew up in Pittsburgh and there is a very 0:03:02.240 --> 0:03:06.440 awful but ubiquitous song, especially any time they get close 0:03:06.480 --> 0:03:09.639 to like going to the super Bowl, called here we Go. 0:03:10.720 --> 0:03:14.519 And it's by some dude who's not like a musician, 0:03:14.680 --> 0:03:18.360 and he just like he recorded it and then but 0:03:18.480 --> 0:03:21.120 its like it blew up and it's like and it 0:03:21.280 --> 0:03:26.239 and it's for the Steelers specifically, was frozen and it 0:03:26.280 --> 0:03:31.079 looks he's frozen in a spot where it looked like okay, 0:03:31.120 --> 0:03:35.200 so and this song was written specifically for the Steelers. Yes, 0:03:35.600 --> 0:03:38.560 And it was written like in when they went to 0:03:38.640 --> 0:03:41.040 the super Bowl for like the first time since the 0:03:41.120 --> 0:03:47.280 eighties by robbing the Colts. Oh yeah, okay, a man ran, No, 0:03:47.520 --> 0:03:49.680 a man ran out of bounds and then came back 0:03:49.720 --> 0:03:51.720 in and called like, part of the reason we have 0:03:51.800 --> 0:03:55.800 replay now is because yes, because that ended up deciding 0:03:55.840 --> 0:03:57.520 who was going to the super Bowl and they were like, 0:03:57.520 --> 0:03:59.440 we can't have that. And so it's not the song 0:03:59.520 --> 0:04:02.600 like here we go again. I don't know, bro, it's 0:04:02.600 --> 0:04:07.240 not that. No, it's not the White Snake song. But 0:04:07.880 --> 0:04:11.040 it's a dude with a thick Pittsburgh accent. He just 0:04:11.120 --> 0:04:14.280 recorded it like at some studio. He probably paid like 0:04:14.320 --> 0:04:19.080 two hundred bucks, and it's so so popular. It's here 0:04:19.080 --> 0:04:27.360 we go Stailers, here we go, Yes, okay, okay, wow. Yeah. 0:04:27.440 --> 0:04:29.960 I mean I think that's why. You know, there was 0:04:29.960 --> 0:04:32.960 a lot of discussion back and forth, and and you 0:04:33.040 --> 0:04:35.280 sent us a length that was like the greatest songs 0:04:35.320 --> 0:04:39.360 written for each NFL team, And I think that article 0:04:39.480 --> 0:04:41.760 was like the guy just looked for like the weirdest 0:04:41.760 --> 0:04:44.359 songs he could find that maybe it wasn't the best resource, 0:04:45.440 --> 0:04:47.839 and it's valid what you were talking about for sure. 0:04:47.880 --> 0:04:50.320 And also you're from the market that has more pride 0:04:50.440 --> 0:04:53.200 than I mean, that's all they have in Pittsburgh. But 0:04:53.440 --> 0:04:55.080 they did. All the songs they listen to are about 0:04:55.080 --> 0:04:57.440 the Steeler. What's funny about that song, is John, I 0:04:57.480 --> 0:04:59.800 know exactly what song you're talking about because it was 0:05:00.000 --> 0:05:02.520 a where from Western all So yeah, so it was 0:05:02.520 --> 0:05:07.640 everywhere where we grow? Yeah, I mean, but that's the 0:05:07.680 --> 0:05:10.400 thing is. But I also thought it was a generic song, 0:05:10.560 --> 0:05:13.000 So I thought there was in my head and I 0:05:13.080 --> 0:05:16.000 never ventured to find out, but I was like, oh, yeah, 0:05:16.000 --> 0:05:20.520 there's probably in Meghan's hometown, Indianapolis. Here we go, Colts, 0:05:21.000 --> 0:05:23.400 here we Go. I just thought, like, because the only 0:05:23.400 --> 0:05:26.039 place I was hearing music was on the bus, um 0:05:27.720 --> 0:05:29.760 so well I would have I would have assumed that 0:05:29.880 --> 0:05:33.880 every market had their own like some jag off like 0:05:34.040 --> 0:05:36.400 made a song and then it got played on the 0:05:36.480 --> 0:05:39.200 radio because everybody was excited, I'm sure, but not as 0:05:39.200 --> 0:05:42.000 catchy as Here we Go Team. It's so bad. The 0:05:42.040 --> 0:05:44.520 guy's not a singer, it's really it's a very weird. 0:05:44.560 --> 0:05:47.960 But it's sold like a hundred thousand copies. Uh, and 0:05:48.080 --> 0:05:53.040 he updates it like every years. And who do you 0:05:53.080 --> 0:05:56.600 think he voted for? I guarantee he's dead because he 0:05:56.720 --> 0:06:02.279 spent his fortune from the millions of coffees. He updates 0:06:02.320 --> 0:06:05.440 it every year. He updates it with obviously the original 0:06:05.480 --> 0:06:11.080 one like referred to like power Power was like a 0:06:11.160 --> 0:06:16.680 big Ryan for that dude. I wonder if he's updating 0:06:16.720 --> 0:06:19.800 it just to signal to his ex wife, like I'm 0:06:19.839 --> 0:06:22.360 still alive, you know, like if you want to come back, 0:06:23.200 --> 0:06:27.679 you want money. His songs this year would be very sad, 0:06:27.880 --> 0:06:33.679 I think, I mean, yeah, I think losses in playoff history, yeah, 0:06:33.880 --> 0:06:35.560 I think he doesn't at the beginning of the season 0:06:35.720 --> 0:06:39.800 before he can really comment on any if he was 0:06:39.880 --> 0:06:42.080 following up this with like all right, I gotta think 0:06:42.080 --> 0:06:46.040 of a Christmas song. Here we go, Santa, here we Go, 0:06:46.240 --> 0:06:49.480 and so everything was big events coming up. Let's see 0:06:49.480 --> 0:06:52.279 if I can drop it in the here we Go template. 0:06:52.960 --> 0:06:56.560 I mean, yeah, that's very clearly his his thing like that. 0:06:56.839 --> 0:06:58.560 That dude's not doing anything else with his life. And 0:06:58.880 --> 0:07:01.200 we all met in chicag Go and they do have 0:07:01.400 --> 0:07:14.320 like go okay before after Steelers, here we go steel 0:07:14.360 --> 0:07:16.000 As you think I think it's better. I think it's 0:07:16.040 --> 0:07:18.800 like that's that's a real song, Like that was written 0:07:18.800 --> 0:07:20.920 by a guy who was a real musician, you know, 0:07:21.080 --> 0:07:24.920 and like it was he found that in though I 0:07:25.200 --> 0:07:28.120 mean it's very sure for sure, I mean it's it's 0:07:28.240 --> 0:07:31.160 very simple. But at the very least it was like 0:07:31.280 --> 0:07:35.120 produced the Steelers song. It was just a dude like 0:07:35.160 --> 0:07:38.920 plugging in things in the studio. I don't want to 0:07:38.920 --> 0:07:41.360 speak poorly on people we grew up with, but very 0:07:41.440 --> 0:07:45.000 much in line for what people are successful for Pittsburgh 0:07:45.040 --> 0:07:49.560 and Western p A. Yeah, right, obviously any uh, the 0:07:49.600 --> 0:07:54.120 elevation of cities alone from there to Chicago, you would expect, 0:07:54.320 --> 0:07:57.440 but that the number one I was gonna pick was 0:07:57.800 --> 0:08:02.520 one of my favorite things or not sports music? Whatever is? 0:08:02.600 --> 0:08:05.640 Scott Staff from Creed wrote a song for the Marlins. 0:08:05.920 --> 0:08:09.880 What was that? It's it sounds like a joke, like 0:08:10.320 --> 0:08:12.440 my description sounds like a joke, and then you listen 0:08:12.480 --> 0:08:14.360 to it and you're like, this is a joke, but 0:08:14.440 --> 0:08:19.200 it's it's real and it doesn't have religious undertones. Well, 0:08:19.400 --> 0:08:24.800 it is so devoid of any undertone. He's literally just 0:08:24.840 --> 0:08:30.480 being like one strack, two stra bringing the bat. Some 0:08:30.520 --> 0:08:35.360 of the actual lyrics are we watch strackouts, Barry sir, 0:08:35.480 --> 0:08:41.720 it's noble, please describing Marlins. Don't I correct me if 0:08:41.720 --> 0:08:46.480 I'm wrong. I think like Florida Baseball is like void 0:08:46.520 --> 0:08:49.800 of fans, Like that's not even the Marlins don't even 0:08:49.920 --> 0:08:53.160 have a fan base really to cling to that. Well, 0:08:53.200 --> 0:08:58.240 I someone must have been mad. It's really a diving 0:08:58.360 --> 0:09:03.600 kid stolen ace there. And James Taylor. As we were 0:09:03.640 --> 0:09:06.440 doing this, James Taylor wrote a song for the Red 0:09:06.520 --> 0:09:09.400 Sox that's also you know, it's like the second line 0:09:09.520 --> 0:09:13.680 is like the Bambino. So it's like and it sounds 0:09:13.760 --> 0:09:16.080 just like a James Taylor song would. So now I 0:09:16.080 --> 0:09:18.839 feel like we've let you down that episode. Actually that 0:09:18.880 --> 0:09:21.440 sounds kind of glad that you got out the ones 0:09:21.600 --> 0:09:25.640 that do you want anymore? I mean the Super Bowl 0:09:25.640 --> 0:09:28.480 Shuffle is like the big one like that. Actually, you 0:09:28.520 --> 0:09:31.760 know it charted, you know, it was so big and 0:09:31.800 --> 0:09:34.840 that that's such a goofy song. And I when I 0:09:34.880 --> 0:09:36.600 was looking up the Super Bowl Shuffle, I found out 0:09:36.600 --> 0:09:39.360 that the year before, I guess, the forty Niners did 0:09:39.360 --> 0:09:41.960 a song similar like the guys and the team sang 0:09:42.000 --> 0:09:45.240 a little song. Yeah, I see, let's bring that trend back. Well, 0:09:45.240 --> 0:09:46.920 that's all I was wondering. I mean, there's been like 0:09:46.960 --> 0:09:49.760 parody as the Super Bowl Shuffle, But has there been 0:09:49.800 --> 0:09:54.320 any sort of like recent any any team taking a 0:09:54.400 --> 0:09:58.880 stab at producing a song? They all like have really 0:09:58.920 --> 0:10:02.839 good now that's celebrations are allowed in the NFL. They 0:10:02.880 --> 0:10:07.319 do like choreograph dances are like very fun. Homage is 0:10:07.400 --> 0:10:10.280 to think, like I think the creativity is there to 0:10:10.400 --> 0:10:12.520 do it. We just got to get these guys in 0:10:12.559 --> 0:10:16.920 the studio. So that is that's our plea is professional athletes, 0:10:17.200 --> 0:10:19.040 We need more of you in the studio. Why didn't 0:10:19.040 --> 0:10:21.240 you pitch that at the Pistons, seure, I don't know 0:10:21.360 --> 0:10:23.439 who knows what at the Pistons. Well, that's why I 0:10:23.520 --> 0:10:26.160 was so sad that Victor Ladipot got traded because it's like, listen, 0:10:26.200 --> 0:10:29.560 there's a lot of all star basketball players, there's very 0:10:29.600 --> 0:10:33.240 few that also have voices of angels. You know, the 0:10:34.160 --> 0:10:36.240 Super Bowl Shuffle. I wasn't listening to it because it 0:10:36.280 --> 0:10:40.360 was a good song, Like songs can chart for irony. Yeah, 0:10:40.360 --> 0:10:42.720 I don't think. In the eighties though, I don't think 0:10:42.720 --> 0:10:46.160 it was irony. I thought it was just the age 0:10:46.160 --> 0:10:48.280 of and I still wish this was a thing. I 0:10:48.280 --> 0:10:50.760 think it would make a lot of money, especially now 0:10:50.960 --> 0:10:52.920 is that like there was either a kiosk or a 0:10:53.000 --> 0:10:55.720 room where you and your friends could record music videos 0:10:55.760 --> 0:10:58.600 and just there's like a box of props and costumes. 0:10:58.640 --> 0:11:00.880 Like I don't know how that one out of style, 0:11:00.960 --> 0:11:03.040 But when the pandemic comes back, maybe I'll open up 0:11:03.080 --> 0:11:05.640 a shop where we do that. Come and cut your 0:11:05.679 --> 0:11:07.680 own track. Yeah, And it just seemed like the Bears 0:11:07.720 --> 0:11:10.120 or maybe walking them off whatever city the super Bowl 0:11:10.160 --> 0:11:13.000 was in and then made that. Yeah. I mean I 0:11:13.400 --> 0:11:15.800 think part of it was just they were just so 0:11:15.800 --> 0:11:18.720 so famous, Like there were so many characters on that 0:11:18.760 --> 0:11:22.240 team that that's what propelled you know, obviously wasn't the 0:11:22.360 --> 0:11:25.240 quality of the song or the dancing. I mean, that's 0:11:25.240 --> 0:11:27.440 what I'm saying, Like the dancing is so good now 0:11:27.920 --> 0:11:31.520 and the dancing shuffle is so bad that I think 0:11:31.559 --> 0:11:34.439 we could get a better song, especially like l A 0:11:34.520 --> 0:11:38.079 has two teams. We've got all the labels out here. 0:11:38.520 --> 0:11:41.359 I mean New York is two teams. That's four teams 0:11:41.400 --> 0:11:44.680 that have a lot of talent in their cities. Come on, 0:11:45.240 --> 0:11:47.200 the Jets. This is what the Jets need to turn 0:11:47.240 --> 0:11:49.720 the organization around. They need a new coach, they maybe 0:11:49.720 --> 0:11:52.320 need a new quarterback, but they need a damn song. 0:11:53.640 --> 0:11:55.040 I think that's what. Yeah, that is what we'll turn 0:11:55.080 --> 0:11:58.199 it around. I was bummed that they started winning games. 0:11:58.920 --> 0:12:03.080 I'll say that they were bummed to the fans. The 0:12:03.120 --> 0:12:05.880 players were happy, but the fans were sad. Joe and 0:12:05.920 --> 0:12:08.160 I guess that's a good segue into how much sports 0:12:08.160 --> 0:12:11.319 are you watching? These guys? Well, just because you've been 0:12:11.320 --> 0:12:13.880 doing it, even saying some sports stuff in our tax 0:12:14.000 --> 0:12:17.640 for sure, But you did grow up in Pennsylvania, in Pittsburgh, 0:12:17.720 --> 0:12:20.600 and like you went to Notre Dame. I know I've 0:12:20.640 --> 0:12:25.959 been I've been surrounded by sports despite being very ambivalent, 0:12:26.480 --> 0:12:28.960 Like you know, I wouldn't. I don't like hate sports 0:12:28.960 --> 0:12:30.760 by any means, but it's just not the way I 0:12:30.800 --> 0:12:33.760 spend my time. But like when you grow up in Pittsburgh, 0:12:33.840 --> 0:12:38.320 you cannot escape it. Like it's doesn't matter what time 0:12:38.640 --> 0:12:41.760 of year the first story on the evening news is 0:12:41.760 --> 0:12:44.040 going to be about the Steelers. Well it could be 0:12:44.080 --> 0:12:47.560 the middle of summer. And like I knew just going 0:12:47.600 --> 0:12:50.240 to school like they were. I mean, like a lot 0:12:50.280 --> 0:12:53.080 of my sports connection was just when I was a kid, 0:12:53.160 --> 0:12:56.079 Like the clothes I work, Yeah, I mean I was 0:12:56.080 --> 0:12:58.120 going to bring it up somehow. But when I stayed 0:12:58.120 --> 0:13:01.080 at your childhood home, I shade and this is on 0:13:01.160 --> 0:13:03.480 just like a road gig. I stayed with your family, 0:13:03.559 --> 0:13:05.920 and I went to bed looking at a picture of 0:13:06.000 --> 0:13:10.120 you or your Grant Hill jersey, and and knowing everything 0:13:10.120 --> 0:13:11.720 about you, had to I was like, why is he 0:13:11.760 --> 0:13:14.840 wearing jersey? It's it's like that thing when you're because 0:13:14.880 --> 0:13:17.120 that was from like fourth grade or something, when you're 0:13:17.160 --> 0:13:19.760 like a kid and you just want to be cool 0:13:19.960 --> 0:13:21.800 or you want to wear the things that everybody else 0:13:21.880 --> 0:13:26.760 is wearing. And people were wearing jerseys like football and basketball, 0:13:27.240 --> 0:13:30.040 and so I had. I had a Grant Hill of 0:13:30.080 --> 0:13:33.480 Pistons jersey, and I had I think I had a 0:13:33.559 --> 0:13:35.920 Lakers jersey, and I think it might have been shock, 0:13:36.360 --> 0:13:39.439 but I couldn't tell you. And then I had some foo. 0:13:39.559 --> 0:13:42.800 I had a I had a Dolphins of football jersey. 0:13:42.880 --> 0:13:47.319 Didn't have anything Pittsburgh. It really fits who you are. 0:13:47.360 --> 0:13:50.319 I feel like I had. I had a boomer a 0:13:50.440 --> 0:13:55.280 siasin football jersey, which was just a very strange one, 0:13:55.360 --> 0:13:58.200 but I had it. Maybe it must have been on sale. 0:13:58.360 --> 0:14:00.720 That must these are all good looking, is for sure, 0:14:00.840 --> 0:14:02.480 because the boomer one would have been like a Green 0:14:02.880 --> 0:14:06.040 Eagles or I think it was. I think it was white. 0:14:06.480 --> 0:14:09.840 In my recollection, Did you go to any Notre Dame 0:14:10.240 --> 0:14:14.280 sporting events while you were there? Football, basketball, volleyball. Yeah, 0:14:14.360 --> 0:14:17.160 when I when I was a freshman, like they kind 0:14:17.160 --> 0:14:19.320 of even in like the orientation. I remember one of 0:14:19.320 --> 0:14:22.800 the kids in the dorm was like, going to a 0:14:23.040 --> 0:14:27.000 fighting Irish home football game is going to be the 0:14:27.040 --> 0:14:30.440 greatest experience of your life. And I remember thinking like, oh, 0:14:30.480 --> 0:14:33.000 this must be like really cool, like and I got 0:14:33.040 --> 0:14:36.400 tickets for this season the way like everybody does. And 0:14:36.440 --> 0:14:38.440 as as a freshman, I was like, all right, let's 0:14:38.440 --> 0:14:42.400 go um now. And I hated it. I need it 0:14:42.520 --> 0:14:46.440 so much because it was like in the student section, 0:14:47.160 --> 0:14:50.760 you are uh. It just felt like this is how 0:14:51.120 --> 0:14:57.000 Hitler came to power. Like every everyone just this mold 0:14:57.120 --> 0:15:01.480 mentality and like everyone's like white, moving their arms in 0:15:01.520 --> 0:15:04.760 the same direction that Unison. It creeped me out. And 0:15:04.840 --> 0:15:07.680 also like I wanted to like joke around and like 0:15:07.880 --> 0:15:11.240 be kind of silly and stuff. In Notre Dame fans 0:15:11.240 --> 0:15:16.040 are so so fucking serious about everything, and like people 0:15:16.080 --> 0:15:18.600 are in tears and people are so mad when something 0:15:18.640 --> 0:15:20.920 goes wrong. I just felt like there was no levity 0:15:21.080 --> 0:15:22.800 and I was like, well, this isn't for me. Well, 0:15:22.880 --> 0:15:25.720 I feel like Notre Dame this year, this season has 0:15:25.760 --> 0:15:28.840 been one of the biggest examples. Well Alabama maybe topped it, 0:15:28.880 --> 0:15:32.240 but with COVID out there, they story it was after 0:15:32.280 --> 0:15:35.040 a crazy game, they stormed the field, and it's just 0:15:35.120 --> 0:15:39.520 like that really shows you the important priorities and priorities 0:15:39.560 --> 0:15:43.800 to Notre Dame football fans. That that was clear. You 0:15:43.800 --> 0:15:45.640 can see it in their eyes. You could see it 0:15:45.720 --> 0:15:48.320 back I could see back in twos and five in 0:15:48.360 --> 0:15:51.520 their eyes that like if there was a national pandemic 0:15:51.560 --> 0:15:54.600 going on, the first thing that they would care about 0:15:54.640 --> 0:15:58.160 more than anything else is is this football game. I 0:15:58.160 --> 0:16:00.800 mean I was never mad at that because it's like 0:16:01.160 --> 0:16:04.680 the Dean the priest Man, he got COVID being at 0:16:04.720 --> 0:16:09.360 the White House. Yeah, Amy, Tony Barrett confirmation have if 0:16:09.400 --> 0:16:13.760 you have college age kids at a game, you've already 0:16:13.760 --> 0:16:17.640 you've already failed, you know, like that, then it's bad already, 0:16:17.680 --> 0:16:22.120 it's already bad. Yeah, So I was on those crazy 0:16:22.160 --> 0:16:26.040 people's side. Uh real quickly. You also, I don't know, 0:16:27.200 --> 0:16:28.760 I don't know if we should bring this up, but 0:16:29.000 --> 0:16:30.640 your roommate. I don't know if you want to burn 0:16:30.720 --> 0:16:34.280 material on this podcast, but your roommate, which I forgot 0:16:35.000 --> 0:16:37.200 you when I first met you. Some of your early 0:16:37.320 --> 0:16:40.400 bits were about your football playing player roommate who was 0:16:40.720 --> 0:16:43.720 my roommate. My roommate as a as a freshman, was 0:16:43.760 --> 0:16:48.880 a defensive tackle. So he was a huge and he 0:16:49.040 --> 0:16:55.440 was six six foods like a big guy. I loved him. 0:16:55.480 --> 0:16:57.200 He was great, but he was very He was a 0:16:57.280 --> 0:17:02.160 very silly man. He it just he would I remember 0:17:02.520 --> 0:17:06.000 he had used my laptop but for some reason, and 0:17:06.040 --> 0:17:09.720 I came back and I just saw he had he 0:17:09.880 --> 0:17:20.720 just searched the word basketball. I just remember, like I'm sorry, 0:17:20.720 --> 0:17:24.600 I keep going, keep going. Yeah, I just remember remember Atlantic. 0:17:24.840 --> 0:17:26.479 I think I gave him ship for it. Like it 0:17:26.520 --> 0:17:29.160 wasn't like, you know, because we had a good relationship. 0:17:29.240 --> 0:17:32.840 And I was like, did you want to see a picture? No, 0:17:33.000 --> 0:17:36.640 it's more embarrassing than porn. Uh, just the word. I'm 0:17:36.720 --> 0:17:40.199 so shocked that they didn't have Like maybe he was 0:17:40.480 --> 0:17:43.800 truly an odd number on the football team because usually 0:17:43.840 --> 0:17:48.960 they put them with other football players. Like their schedule 0:17:49.119 --> 0:17:53.359 is very yeah, like intense different and intense. Yeah. No, 0:17:53.520 --> 0:17:55.119 I mean there were. There were a bunch of football 0:17:55.119 --> 0:17:58.880 players in my dorm who were who lived with non 0:17:58.920 --> 0:18:03.000 football players, like my my cousin was on the team, 0:18:03.320 --> 0:18:06.680 and yeah, he lived with I don't know c J. 0:18:06.760 --> 0:18:09.440 If you remember, you probably don't. My friend Joe Wong, 0:18:09.880 --> 0:18:14.440 he came to Chicago once. At any rate, that's cut 0:18:14.840 --> 0:18:20.320 that out, Hey, Joey Joe Wong. Um, shout out Joe 0:18:20.359 --> 0:18:23.200 Wong for coming to Chicago one time and not making 0:18:23.240 --> 0:18:27.399 an impression. Um. Yeah, let's take a break, um, and 0:18:27.440 --> 0:18:29.320 then let me just check this connection here. So let's 0:18:29.320 --> 0:18:37.240 take a break, all right, and we are back, and 0:18:37.280 --> 0:18:40.760 we are now into the premise portion of our podcast. 0:18:41.520 --> 0:18:47.040 Usually usually we say the topic before we go. So 0:18:47.160 --> 0:18:50.200 I just dad, I would have done that differently, just 0:18:50.440 --> 0:18:52.520 for the record. I would have been like, and today's 0:18:52.520 --> 0:18:55.600 topic is going to be Oh, I forget how we're 0:18:55.600 --> 0:18:59.240 even phrasing it. Ship, damn it? What happened? Can I 0:18:59.280 --> 0:19:04.320 do it? Yeah? The only person who's professional. Yeah, as 0:19:04.359 --> 0:19:07.800 I understood, we were going to do the greatest stadium songs. Ye, 0:19:08.000 --> 0:19:12.800 stadium songs pump up like associated with sports. Yeah, like 0:19:12.880 --> 0:19:16.040 songs that you would that are they get the crowd 0:19:16.160 --> 0:19:18.359 going at the stadium. I mean that would be in 0:19:18.520 --> 0:19:21.879 um jams. I mean that, like all I want is 0:19:21.960 --> 0:19:25.359 jock jams all the time. That's the jock jam. Like, 0:19:26.119 --> 0:19:29.159 oh I could I all I growing up all we 0:19:29.200 --> 0:19:31.480 did was make up dances to jock jams. We would 0:19:31.520 --> 0:19:33.680 get like jock Jams one or jock Jams I don't 0:19:33.680 --> 0:19:36.639 even know what they were numbered. And yeah, the songs 0:19:36.680 --> 0:19:41.120 didn't even end. They just like went into another jock jam. 0:19:41.160 --> 0:19:44.399 And yeah, we put that puppy on and my friend 0:19:44.560 --> 0:19:49.120 Maggie Daniels TV room and we'd make up dances all night. 0:19:49.359 --> 0:19:53.359 Oh it was fun. Gosh, alright, Joe, since you are 0:19:53.400 --> 0:19:55.119 our guest, you are going to kick us off with 0:19:55.160 --> 0:19:58.760 your number three pick for greatest stadium jock jam. Sport 0:19:58.760 --> 0:20:04.199 E song just sending orders. So okay, so I I 0:20:04.320 --> 0:20:06.200 have to put this one at number I feel like 0:20:06.240 --> 0:20:09.160 I had to include it, but I'm I have conflicting 0:20:09.200 --> 0:20:12.399 feelings about including it because of the person who made it. 0:20:12.520 --> 0:20:14.240 But I think it has to be on there, which 0:20:14.320 --> 0:20:18.440 is Rock and Roll apart two, which is by convicted 0:20:18.480 --> 0:20:22.440 pedophile Gary Glitter. No, but this is this is the show. 0:20:22.520 --> 0:20:25.680 I mean, it's a perfect pick because we people need 0:20:25.720 --> 0:20:27.760 to know the backstory about this, which I think our 0:20:27.800 --> 0:20:30.399 group is kind of obsessed about. First of all, number 0:20:30.560 --> 0:20:33.440 part two is the most famous, right, Yeah, there's a 0:20:33.520 --> 0:20:36.399 part one that no one has heard. But yeah, someone 0:20:36.440 --> 0:20:39.760 flipped the record over and and found this. It really 0:20:39.920 --> 0:20:43.800 is like a perfect It's almost like primal it. It's 0:20:43.840 --> 0:20:47.760 like a heartbeat. Uh. And it doesn't have any words, 0:20:47.840 --> 0:20:50.200 which I think is in a h Jock James favor 0:20:50.200 --> 0:20:52.800 in a stadium songs favor and the only words it 0:20:52.840 --> 0:20:55.640 has our words that you can sing along to that 0:20:55.680 --> 0:21:03.320 you know exactly what it is. Hey done, no no, no, no, no, 0:21:03.520 --> 0:21:09.199 no, no no. I wonderful because I think that we're singing it, 0:21:09.240 --> 0:21:11.560 They're going to be like, that sounds bad. Well they 0:21:11.640 --> 0:21:14.360 might sue us for making it sound bad. Yeah, okay, 0:21:14.440 --> 0:21:21.080 well we'll have to pay Gary Glitter. I'm not not. 0:21:21.280 --> 0:21:24.040 Which is why it's why you don't hear that song 0:21:24.119 --> 0:21:27.240 that much anymore. Is because people were like, hey, we 0:21:27.400 --> 0:21:32.479 just paying all these royalties to this pedophile. He almost 0:21:32.480 --> 0:21:36.680 got killed by firing squad in Vietnam. Yeah, but because 0:21:36.680 --> 0:21:39.639 that's that was the that was the I was just 0:21:39.680 --> 0:21:41.880 gonna say the reason I said the firing squad. Thing 0:21:41.920 --> 0:21:46.680 is that was the potential punishment, punishment in Vietnam because 0:21:46.680 --> 0:21:50.399 he had, you know, molested a girl in Vietnam. And 0:21:50.440 --> 0:21:57.119 how long was he before soldier? What was he doing there? No? 0:21:57.320 --> 0:22:02.440 I think he maybe was fleeing along Okay, yeah, where 0:22:02.440 --> 0:22:05.760 he had you know, I was thinking like a John McCain. 0:22:05.920 --> 0:22:09.040 He got captured and then there was a firing squad. 0:22:09.080 --> 0:22:13.160 But this is he was just they're on Vaca. Yeah, 0:22:13.119 --> 0:22:15.200 I know, he yeah, he was looking for some stream 0:22:16.880 --> 0:22:20.639 so bad. We talked about the House Forbidden the song is, 0:22:20.760 --> 0:22:23.160 but it was in Joker. It was a major scene 0:22:23.160 --> 0:22:25.960 in Joker. I know. I feel like that was maybe 0:22:25.960 --> 0:22:33.520 an intentional move because who like edge Lord like yeah whatever? Man? Wow, 0:22:33.640 --> 0:22:36.239 well that's a great first pick. Todd really showed us, 0:22:36.280 --> 0:22:40.040 didn't he. Um. That is a great first pick. And 0:22:40.280 --> 0:22:43.919 I hope it's the only pedophile that we feature on 0:22:44.000 --> 0:22:47.359 this episode. But I don't know. I haven't really interesting. 0:22:47.480 --> 0:22:51.960 I haven't you know, I've done no no on my list. 0:22:51.960 --> 0:22:54.240 This is it. You want me to go next, honey? Okay, 0:22:54.240 --> 0:22:57.360 So for my number three pick, I'm going real homer 0:22:57.840 --> 0:23:03.480 bang the drum all day, don't want yes? Okay? So 0:23:03.680 --> 0:23:07.240 This was the song that the Colts played after every 0:23:07.240 --> 0:23:11.240 single touchdown, and so when I hear it, it like endorphins, 0:23:11.320 --> 0:23:13.960 like my brain truly is just like you're happy, You're happy, 0:23:14.000 --> 0:23:16.840 You're happy, I can like see the flag. Going doing 0:23:17.040 --> 0:23:20.159 research of this, I found out it is also the 0:23:20.200 --> 0:23:23.920
