Speaker 1: c group it. Yes, Dylan, we really appreciate you. Know what.
Speaker 1: I want to apologize right off, because I just happened
Speaker 1: to look up and make eye contact with you, and
Speaker 1: I can see you're You're in your early thirties. Yes,
Speaker 1: I was clearly wrong about the whole Motown sound thing.
Speaker 1: You had nothing to do with the Motown town. But
Speaker 1: do you like motown music? I do. You don't know
Speaker 1: if I could name any off the top of my head,
Speaker 1: but um well, let's see scrill X is definitely the
Speaker 1: biggest Motown beach boys. Were they not from Detroit? No? No, Well,
Speaker 1: I guess we don't know anything about Eminem because of
Speaker 1: the m Motown man. That's what the short from Motown.
Speaker 1: He is from Michigan. That's where the eight mile talk
Speaker 1: about eight mile? Right right? Have you seen it? I
Speaker 1: would love to get it a deep dive on eight mile.
Speaker 1: I think I'm the wrong guy. So let's start with
Speaker 1: the basics. How did you get started? How did music
Speaker 1: into your life? I mean from a young age. You know,
Speaker 1: you have the radio just going so my parents, my
Speaker 1: dad always listened to him. Actually, were you like listening
Speaker 1: to like raffie music? No? No No, I was listening to
Speaker 1: a lot of like one on one point one, Okay,
Speaker 1: here is one on one. It was. It was all
Speaker 1: the classics, and then my mom would would do one
Speaker 1: or two points and it would be really funny if
Speaker 1: my dad listened to that too, he did not, Um,
Speaker 1: I just I kind of got into music through that,
Speaker 1: and then, uh, like for actually working in music, I
Speaker 1: think it was it was just through my friend playing
Speaker 1: a lot of like dance music in his car and
Speaker 1: I didn't know what it was, and I was really
Speaker 1: into metal music and punk music at the time, and
Speaker 1: then that's what I was like, what is this? Sounds
Speaker 1: like the advanced version of that metal music is music?
Speaker 1: I'm lost here. That sounds like two pieces of metal
Speaker 1: scraping together. I guess you could say, so it's loud music. Okay,
Speaker 1: it's it's a lot of a lot of so like
Speaker 1: when someone's belting out the national anthem that's considered metal music.
Speaker 1: That's loud. Yes, it's more like it screaming, like you could,
Speaker 1: like Katy Perry so close. But okay, well, none of
Speaker 1: us are good at classifying music. UM so what are
Speaker 1: we doing here? Honestly, Carolina, I mean you're supposed to
Speaker 1: be driving the train here. I'm learning just as much
Speaker 1: as you are. I mean maybe I'm less behind, but
Speaker 1: let's talk about this. So working as an E D
Speaker 1: M DJ, now that's the correct terminology, right, and produce
Speaker 1: or I mean you you take a lot from different
Speaker 1: musical influences, right, so, and I know now this, I
Speaker 1: do know reggaeton yeah is a big is big for you,
Speaker 1: right but but I read when you were younger you
Speaker 1: were very into punk music. Yes, so I just said, yes,
Speaker 1: you just said that. Yes, Okay, Shoot, somehow if lessened
Speaker 1: this biz a long time without listening, um some of
Speaker 1: the artists that inspired you, uh Pure Prairie League, Atlanta
Speaker 1: Rhythm Section, Uh, Captain and to Neil, but not to Neil.
Speaker 1: This is my bio. I'm just asking. I don't think
Speaker 1: Captain ever. I don't think none, none of those groups,
Speaker 1: neither of those two. Okay, scratch that off. Let me
Speaker 1: get my pin scratch off. Done. So I imagine you
Speaker 1: know a lot of being a producer and making electronic
Speaker 1: music involves sitting in front of a computer. Yeah, a lot.
Speaker 1: Do you feel you made a good decision there? Not?
Speaker 1: Sometimes now got a bad back from it? Definitely? Okay? Right? Yeah?
Speaker 1: Do you do you have one of those walking computer?
Speaker 1: You know where you stand? You're supposed to like standing DUTs,
Speaker 1: thank you, because sitting is supposed to kill us? Now
Speaker 1: it is? Who said that? No? That's just the new studies.
Speaker 1: Not supposed to sit, it's going to kill you. You're
Speaker 1: not ever supposed to sit, never again. So the computer,
Speaker 1: I mean the computer, it's it's I mean, it is
Speaker 1: in someone. It's a very smart choice. It's easy to
Speaker 1: carry around. He's very Do you ever do you ever
Speaker 1: look at a guy, for instance, who plays like the
Speaker 1: tuba and has to lug it all over the place
Speaker 1: and think, nice job, idiot, I'm an international superstar DJ.
Speaker 1: Just because I brought, you know, a laptop and you're
Speaker 1: lugging around a tuba. Look some kind of absolutely um.
Speaker 1: Sometimes I sit at the airport and I just wait,
Speaker 1: wait for those people, for the tuba people, And I
Speaker 1: look at them and I go, if you really new
Speaker 1: wrong choice, buddy? This may be an obscure rest reference
Speaker 1: to our listener for our list Oh my god, come on, Ron,
Speaker 1: get it together. Ah. We were so lucky to have
Speaker 1: you here today. And I thought it'd be a great
Speaker 1: chance to tackle a subject on this show that's really
Speaker 1: important to me. And you know what, Actually I'm gonna
Speaker 1: I'm gonna backtrack here. I want to get to that
Speaker 1: question later, but I want to ask you, Okay, let's
Speaker 1: throw some names out here. Test Yes know him? Diplow
Speaker 1: know him? Z is that? Yes? I know him? Is
Speaker 1: that I'm supposed to say I know him? Or whatever

Speaker 1: he's dead. Now, are you saying the ghost of Ed
Speaker 1: Coach loves Sarah Huckabats, Yeah he did. Let's sick a
Speaker 1: moment of silence? Four departed New York Mayor Ed Cotch Nick.
Speaker 1: Do you have any music you could play while we
Speaker 1: take this moment of silence? Perfect? Thank you? Um let
Speaker 1: me get back to this other topic saying about which,
Speaker 1: like I said, so thankful to have you, thank you,
Speaker 1: And I want to discuss something that's really important to
Speaker 1: me and I think it would be helpful and education. Well, ah,
Speaker 1: come on, Rod, what is it? I got the Monday
Speaker 1: blas who last night I was down at the pier
Speaker 1: sport fishing. You're not supposed to do that anymore? Well,
Speaker 1: I love it. It's passion of mine. In fact, I
Speaker 1: should have put it on the bumble thing sport fishing. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I just got on bumble today. How how is it
Speaker 1: we'll find out he's trying to get on Riya but
Speaker 1: he's wait list. I'm waitlisted on Riya. I can hook
Speaker 1: you up. You could jump me to the front of
Speaker 1: the line. Yeah. Those all the names you listed are
Speaker 1: that's what you were listing them for their exactly. We're
Speaker 1: all on there. This is, you know, learning how to
Speaker 1: be one of the great days in my life. Yes, Rya,
Speaker 1: here we come, Ron Burgundy on riot. Um, so let's
Speaker 1: discuss the topic how to care for the elderly. That's
Speaker 1: a good one. Um, Dylan, your thoughts? Should we do
Speaker 1: more for the elderly? Should we just do this topic now?
Speaker 1: I mean maybe we should stick to music. No, Caroline,
Speaker 1: that's so boring. When I heard Dylan Francis was coming in,
Speaker 1: I thought, who better to tackle the subject of caring
Speaker 1: for the elderly than Dylan Francis and E D M. Superstar.
Speaker 1: It just felt right. And you know, I always like
Speaker 1: to go with my gut. When when is my gut
Speaker 1: ever been wrong? I none are coming to mind because
Speaker 1: I'm so overwhel I'm actually paralyzed. Try and game just
Speaker 1: one good, let's just start there, Dylan. A lot of
Speaker 1: older people are confined to wheelchairs. We need to make
Speaker 1: our world more wheelchair accessible in general, don't you think? Yeah,
Speaker 1: I've who would say no to that? Always? I'm asking
Speaker 1: the DJ here, so you agree. I agree that we
Speaker 1: shouldn't do that. Shouldn't have controversial opinion. I have more
Speaker 1: accessibility for wheelchairs. We should have should have it? Yes? Great?
Speaker 1: And also if you're if you're in a wheelchair, have
Speaker 1: fun with it, Yes, have fun with it, especially like
Speaker 1: the motorized ones. Yeah, the rascals. Yeah, the rascals, Well,
Speaker 1: a jazzy that's what they're called. They're jazzys. They're also
Speaker 1: called jazzys. That's another like the rascal Rascal. I um,
Speaker 1: I'm a bit of a rascal. Yes, And I volunteer
Speaker 1: at a nursing home once in a while. And I
Speaker 1: don't like to make a big deal out of it,
Speaker 1: But it really lightens up people's faces when they see
Speaker 1: old Ron Burgundy come into a visit. Do you find
Speaker 1: that with your fans they're happy to see you at
Speaker 1: meet and greets? Yeah? Do you do a lot of
Speaker 1: meet and greets sometimes? Is it? How many people would
Speaker 1: that be? Uh? Like, you know, like in one meet
Speaker 1: and greet for like the show, So after the show
Speaker 1: you'll meet with five hundred people. I mean I I
Speaker 1: used to like, go out to the home. How do
Speaker 1: you how do you have the energy to talk to
Speaker 1: five d people? Let's give him hugs? Wow? I would
Speaker 1: limit it to five five Ron would limit it to
Speaker 1: five and say only ladies please, which was kind of insulting.
Speaker 1: But um, so, you know, I just find that going
Speaker 1: to nursing homes is just a small way to give
Speaker 1: back to the community, and in particularly with the elderly
Speaker 1: folks I deal with um And I have this one
Speaker 1: gentleman I see regularly. He's a retired lieutenant colonel. He's
Speaker 1: a veteran, purple heart, the whole deal, a true American hero.
Speaker 1: And last weekend I rigged up his motorized wheelchair with
Speaker 1: the engine from an old nineteen seventy Corvette Stingray LT
Speaker 1: one and I must have got that sucker going up
Speaker 1: to around one mile maybe maybe hundred and thirty. Isn't
Speaker 1: that awesome? He was. He went on the away, he
Speaker 1: went on the freeway. He loved it, and he said
Speaker 1: thanks for bringing me back to the glory days. He
Speaker 1: didn't I feel like he loved it. I was against
Speaker 1: the idea, but then when I saw him on it, right, Okay, yeah,
Speaker 1: I mean I would just assume that that would cause
Speaker 1: I mean, he was just irreparable. Damna. He came back
Speaker 1: hard or kidney failure, yeah, um, he had a he
Speaker 1: had a little bit of kidney failure. Okay, he said
Speaker 1: it was worth the whole thing. I mean, he was
Speaker 1: just risen around the grounds of the nursing home as
Speaker 1: the time of his life. People, the people in charge
Speaker 1: of the facility got a little uptight with me, but
Speaker 1: I just said, hey, I'm Ron Burgundy. Yeah that was it. Yeah,
Speaker 1: that was my only reson. Did they say please stop?
Speaker 1: They said please stop, and we're gonna have to call
Speaker 1: the police, and law enforcement did show up. So Dylan Frances,
Speaker 1: what ways do you try to give back to the community. Um,
Speaker 1: I mean I donate money to parks and l a
Speaker 1: trying to get more parks and then just parks of
Speaker 1: general dog parks, just parks, just just making sure we
Speaker 1: have actually, like you know, because I've been we need
Speaker 1: open spaces. Yeah, I've been in the UK. They have
Speaker 1: really nice parks we just don't have. And then I
Speaker 1: give a lot to Music Cares, which is a music
Speaker 1: organization that for the arts and it actually exists. Yes,
Speaker 1: it's not a it's not a fake charity. Run has
Speaker 1: been interested in creating a charity just you should. I
Speaker 1: would donate to it. Well it's called more Spaghetti, Okay,
Speaker 1: I wouldn't take it that it's just about more spaghetti
Speaker 1: for people. We don't have to get into it. I
Speaker 1: actually I actually kind of feed the elderly more spaghetti. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I mean if they don't know, if they necessarily need
Speaker 1: more spaghetti. I feel like if you do it too
Speaker 1: for homeless people though, that's fantastic. Well maybe that's what
Speaker 1: we'll do. Yeah, maybe that's a good idea, after we
Speaker 1: take a little bit off the top. Yeah, do you
Speaker 1: have parents and they must be awfully proud of what
Speaker 1: you've accomplished. Yeah, my grandma is and what do they
Speaker 1: make of your music? I mean, she definitely if I
Speaker 1: played it for her, she wouldn't know it was my music,
Speaker 1: and she would probably be like, I don't want to
Speaker 1: hear this, but she's proud, So they enjoy it or
Speaker 1: I don't think so, Okay, maybe some of them. There's
Speaker 1: there's probably a you know, maybe two that I could
Speaker 1: play her that she would be fine. Like what I mean,
Speaker 1: what portion of fandom do you think you have in
Speaker 1: the elderly community? Oh man? I mean I could look
Speaker 1: at my analytics on Twitter or or Instagram and it
Speaker 1: would be an interesting study. I I could look right
Speaker 1: to see. Let's look right now. Let's look right now.
Speaker 1: Let's see how many octogenarians you have who consider themselves fans.
Speaker 1: Let's see who love to get down to the beats
Speaker 1: um so that you can access Yeah, I'm not accessing
Speaker 1: it right now. Sixty four? We got one? Okay, sixty
Speaker 1: five plus I guess what, so one percent? These are
Speaker 1: the real one percenters, octogenarians who love d M while
Speaker 1: they're doing uh, you know, water aerobics at the pool.
Speaker 1: Yeah h thanks to them, thank you s m H. Right, Yeah,
Speaker 1: what do you think that means smh. Surely must help
Speaker 1: is what I always thought it man, it means shake
Speaker 1: my head, but it's okay. Shake Why would you want
Speaker 1: to shake your head? Sma smack? Am I right? Big time? Small? Yeah,
Speaker 1: let's talk about cholesterol medication lipatore good for controlling cholesterol levels?
Speaker 1: Or should people change their diets as well? I I
Speaker 1: legally I am not allowed to comment because the last
Speaker 1: time I did, right, I got okay because I don't
Speaker 1: know the specifics about to be able to common senses.
Speaker 1: Put down the cheeseburger, yes, or pick up the lipertur Yes,
Speaker 1: that's both some people need. But who knows. I'm I
Speaker 1: don't know what the right answer is. I'm not a doctor.
Speaker 1: If you're listening, what about molly? Do you ever take
Speaker 1: that stuff when I was younger? Should senior citizens take ecstasy?
Speaker 1: Mn't think so. It's pretty rough, but it's interesting. I
Speaker 1: wonder of your one per centers, if they're just riding
Speaker 1: the molly train all day long, they could be What
Speaker 1: do you think about this? I just thought of this idea,
Speaker 1: so forgive me if it's not fleshed out. How about
Speaker 1: a DJ school for senior citizens? M would that be
Speaker 1: something you'd be interested in setting up. Um, just get
Speaker 1: a bunch of octogenarians in a room, teach them about
Speaker 1: beat matching, cross fader, curve control, get some loops going,
Speaker 1: make some beats that honestly sounds like my own personal
Speaker 1: helpload it to SoundCloud. Not interested? Not How do you
Speaker 1: where did you learn those words? How do you know
Speaker 1: so much about DJ technique? Well, Carolina, you don't know
Speaker 1: everything about me. Okay, When I was doing cable news
Speaker 1: in New York City in the eighties, actually befriended Grand
Speaker 1: Master Flash for a period of time, and he showed
Speaker 1: me a couple of things on the ones and twos,
Speaker 1: and it's nothing like what Dylan can do here. But
Speaker 1: but the Flash and I did put out a single
Speaker 1: around three called news Funk two thousand. Quite serious? Can
Speaker 1: we hear it? I thought you'd never ask DJ Dillon Frances,
Speaker 1: Thank you, Carolina didn't ask me. Well, I didn't even know. Nick.
Speaker 1: Do you have news funk? Nick? You always have news
Speaker 1: Fun two thousand? Loaded up? Ready to go? All right,
Speaker 1: let's take okay, let's take a ride. Here. It is
Speaker 1: from news Funk two thousand. Brod bro Bro bro bro
Speaker 1: Bro one glast three two one blast too hot? See? Wow?
Speaker 1: Was that not? That was interesting? What? It never made
Speaker 1: it on the radio except for a couple of college
Speaker 1: station Yeah. Why was it called news Funk two thousand?
Speaker 1: Beak um, Yeah, it's not very newsy? Yeah, I think
Speaker 1: it was. What did it sound anything like the two
Speaker 1: thous I think we were trying to predict what the
Speaker 1: two thousand sound was going to be like and wasn't that.
Speaker 1: It wasn't It wasn't this. But the drum machine was cool. Right,
Speaker 1: that's the best part. Um. I wish you Why are
Speaker 1: you laughing so much? It's maybe it's flattering. I feel
Speaker 1: like I never want to play it again. It's producing emotion.
Speaker 1: It's good. Absolutely, there you go. That absolutely is the
Speaker 1: way to take that. Okay, Well, I feel like you
Speaker 1: guys are making fun of me, but whatever, I have
Speaker 1: enough self esteem to know that Ron, you can do
Speaker 1: whatever you want. In news Funk two thousand, you took
Speaker 1: a chance, and um, you know that's what life is
Speaker 1: all about. You took an artistic chance and it went.
Speaker 1: I'm not going to be made to feel no, I
Speaker 1: went somewhere. It went exactly, thank you. In fact, that
Speaker 1: was one of the reviews of news Funk two thousand.
Speaker 1: This song went somewhere. One of the call newspapers said,
Speaker 1: well it went somewhere. What were some of the other
Speaker 1: if there? If you could name off? Very negative, very yeah, okay,
Speaker 1: very negative. Sorry. Um let me ask you this. Do
Speaker 1: you meditate? Um? I used to, and then well it
Speaker 1: was when I was younger and my dad made me wow, okay,
Speaker 1: which is really counterproductive to meditating. Why would you make
Speaker 1: someone forceful meditation? So he's like, son, for the last
Speaker 1: time you got to meditate, it was it's six o'clock
Speaker 1: meditation time. Sounded exactly like that. I just got flashbacks, Dylan,
Speaker 1: for Christ's sake? Did you meditate? Was that kind of
Speaker 1: the wow? So? So you never felt relaxed? No? No,
Speaker 1: The reason we had to meditate was we it was
Speaker 1: so that we could watch TV. So it was a tradeoff.
Speaker 1: It was a trade off meditate. And how long was
Speaker 1: the meditation period supposed to? Like an hour and hour?
Speaker 1: A lot of breathing experts. Now I'm on your side,
Speaker 1: maybe fifteen minutes. My dad still wakes up and at
Speaker 1: every morning. Did you find it helped you so much?
Speaker 1: Or were you just say it was too much of
Speaker 1: a punishment. I'm a as a little kid. Your mind exactly.
Speaker 1: I mean, my mind is going a mile a minute
Speaker 1: right now. I try to meditate every morning and I can't. Immediately,
Speaker 1: I started thinking about eight Mile, the movie eight Mile,
Speaker 1: and how we have to save the people from the
Speaker 1: nuclear reactor mailt down to three mile Oland. That's not
Speaker 1: what the movie was about, though. Gosh, I wish we
Speaker 1: could watch it right now and have this debate. It's
Speaker 1: not I guess we're going to have to agree to disagree.
Speaker 1: It's not what the movie is about though. Even well, anyway,
Speaker 1: when I meditate, that's those are the images that I'm
Speaker 1: pouring through my mind. It's like a carnival of horrors
Speaker 1: in my brain no matter what I do. So, so
Speaker 1: what do you do now to relax your mind and
Speaker 1: clear your head? Cause I'm sure you have a hectic schedule. Um,
Speaker 1: I take you know, take naps or something like that.
Speaker 1: And I just I enjoy working. I'm very thankful for
Speaker 1: Do you wake up and you just like boom, I've
Speaker 1: got a new beat, a new rhythm, a new a
Speaker 1: new song in my head. It's either that or like
Speaker 1: video ideas for for like music videos the visual expression
Speaker 1: of what you've already done. You But yeah, it's like that,
Speaker 1: or it's just sitting down in front of the computer
Speaker 1: and then kind of just you know, chipping away at whatever.
Speaker 1: I imagine you travel a lot for your work. How
Speaker 1: many how many dates a year are you on the road?
Speaker 1: Probably like a hundred and forty something, hundred and fifty something,
Speaker 1: pretty extensive. A lot of traveling, A lot of traveling.
Speaker 1: Back to the elderly. Speaking of traveling, you know, and
Speaker 1: though I work with the elderly, sometimes I do kind
Speaker 1: of resent the fact that they're able to get on
Speaker 1: a plane before me, just because they're old and needs
Speaker 1: special assistance, you know, especially when I'm flying first class,
Speaker 1: as I'm sure you do all the time. Don't you
Speaker 1: think first class passengers and elderly people should be able
Speaker 1: to peacefully board an airplane at the same time, don't they.
Speaker 1: I mean, Ron has pushed me over when we've boarded
Speaker 1: a plan at the same time. I mean, I'll help
Speaker 1: an old lady put her bag in the overhead compartment,
Speaker 1: but but I'm going to put my bag up first,
Speaker 1: you know, it's understandable. Then I'll help the old bag
Speaker 1: of bones. Imagine you do the same right down, I
Speaker 1: think I would put her bag first, not mine. Chivalry
Speaker 1: is not dead. Last time we got on a plane together,
Speaker 1: you kicked me in the back of the knees and
Speaker 1: said go faster because you were so slow. Do you
Speaker 1: remember how I got all the passengers to chant, hurry up, Caralida,
Speaker 1: hurry up, caral It was crazy, hilarious. It was hilarious.
Speaker 1: I would have I would have loved to see that.
Speaker 1: I'm sorry to interrupted. I just the elderly have no
Speaker 1: idea what we're trying to do here at this episode.
Speaker 1: We have a great guest with a fascinating career, and
Speaker 1: you're just kind of like shoehorning this vague idea about
Speaker 1: helping the elderly. I'm bringing my journalistic point of view,
Speaker 1: and that's what people tune in for. You know, there's
Speaker 1: at least six or seven shows where people just ask
