Yeah, me too. 3 00:00:08,760 --> 00:00:12,000 Speaker 1: This is the podcast that comes after the podcast. Welcome 4 00:00:12,000 --> 00:00:30,720 Speaker 1: to Disgraceland, the after Party. Welcome to the Disgraceland bonus episode, 5 00:00:30,720 --> 00:00:33,280 Speaker 1: a little thing we like to call the after party. 6 00:00:33,520 --> 00:00:35,680 Speaker 1: This is the show after the show, the party after 7 00:00:35,720 --> 00:00:37,600 Speaker 1: the party, the bridge to get you from one full 8 00:00:37,600 --> 00:00:40,560 Speaker 1: episode of Disgraceland to the other, the backyard to dig 9 00:00:40,680 --> 00:00:44,159 Speaker 1: into the dirt. On this bonus episode, we are talking 10 00:00:44,200 --> 00:00:47,400 Speaker 1: about this week's subject of the Disgraceland full episode, John 11 00:00:47,479 --> 00:00:51,080 Speaker 1: Lennon in his early seventies politics. We are also talking 12 00:00:51,080 --> 00:00:53,800 Speaker 1: about rock and roll animalism in the true spirit not 13 00:00:53,880 --> 00:00:56,160 Speaker 1: of Christmas, but of rock and roll. And of course 14 00:00:56,280 --> 00:00:59,360 Speaker 1: we are diving into your voicemails, text and more, and 15 00:00:59,440 --> 00:01:02,320 Speaker 1: as always, a whole lot of rosie. All right, disc goes, 16 00:01:02,720 --> 00:01:19,000 Speaker 1: let's get into it, all right, what's up, disc goes. 17 00:01:19,080 --> 00:01:21,720 Speaker 1: I hope you had a beautiful Thanksgiving with your families. 18 00:01:22,080 --> 00:01:24,120 Speaker 1: I did. I got the chill. I got to do 19 00:01:24,160 --> 00:01:26,840 Speaker 1: a little work as well. I had some time to 20 00:01:27,240 --> 00:01:31,440 Speaker 1: start this poster project that I've been noodling on. I've 21 00:01:31,440 --> 00:01:34,679 Speaker 1: been talking to different designers about designing a new Disgraceland poster. 22 00:01:35,280 --> 00:01:37,040 Speaker 1: It's not fully thought out of my head, but it's 23 00:01:37,280 --> 00:01:44,200 Speaker 1: basically the literal manifestation of Disgraceland, you know, as a place. 24 00:01:44,880 --> 00:01:49,520 Speaker 1: It's an image that is filled with vice, grime, crime, 25 00:01:50,000 --> 00:01:54,040 Speaker 1: and of course rock and roll. And in my head 26 00:01:54,080 --> 00:01:56,160 Speaker 1: as I'm trying to picture this so that I can 27 00:01:56,240 --> 00:02:00,160 Speaker 1: articulate it to these designers that I'm talking to who 28 00:02:00,160 --> 00:02:03,440 Speaker 1: will ultimately create it, who have the real talent, as 29 00:02:03,440 --> 00:02:07,520 Speaker 1: I'm picturing it, you know, through all this death and destruction, 30 00:02:07,880 --> 00:02:12,359 Speaker 1: there's a path, almost like Shoots and Ladders, like a 31 00:02:12,400 --> 00:02:14,399 Speaker 1: shoots and Ladders type of path, or like some sort 32 00:02:14,440 --> 00:02:16,920 Speaker 1: of board game. There's like a winding path, and the 33 00:02:16,960 --> 00:02:19,800 Speaker 1: path as a beginning and an end. And in my 34 00:02:19,880 --> 00:02:23,480 Speaker 1: head I was having a hard time figuring out what 35 00:02:23,560 --> 00:02:25,959 Speaker 1: the path was for at first, why I kept going 36 00:02:25,960 --> 00:02:27,400 Speaker 1: back to it in my mind, I was like, there 37 00:02:27,400 --> 00:02:30,080 Speaker 1: has to be this path, you know, I don't know why, 38 00:02:30,680 --> 00:02:33,160 Speaker 1: It's just something I'm thinking about. And then it hit 39 00:02:33,200 --> 00:02:36,560 Speaker 1: me because it's obvious. The path is the hero's journey, 40 00:02:37,200 --> 00:02:41,200 Speaker 1: the hero from our stories and what's at the end 41 00:02:41,240 --> 00:02:44,920 Speaker 1: of the path. That also became obvious to me because 42 00:02:45,040 --> 00:02:47,120 Speaker 1: in most cases in our stories, what's at the end 43 00:02:47,120 --> 00:02:50,160 Speaker 1: of the path is redemption. That's what happens to most 44 00:02:50,160 --> 00:02:53,840 Speaker 1: of the subjects that we discussed and disgraceland in most cases, 45 00:02:54,639 --> 00:02:58,200 Speaker 1: despite the awful horrible things that these musicians and entertainers do, 46 00:02:58,880 --> 00:03:01,520 Speaker 1: and despite the awful horrible things that happened to them, 47 00:03:01,919 --> 00:03:04,120 Speaker 1: at the end of the line, even if there's death, 48 00:03:04,720 --> 00:03:08,040 Speaker 1: there's usually redemption. And that's a powerful thing. It's a 49 00:03:08,080 --> 00:03:13,160 Speaker 1: powerful thing in storytelling, it's a powerful thing in life itself. 50 00:03:14,080 --> 00:03:19,520 Speaker 1: It's what makes these human stories that we tell so dramatic, 51 00:03:19,680 --> 00:03:23,120 Speaker 1: I think, and so resonant. And I bring this all 52 00:03:23,200 --> 00:03:27,359 Speaker 1: up because in this week's John Lennon episode, or I 53 00:03:27,360 --> 00:03:30,040 Speaker 1: should say, in this week's John Lennon episodes, because we've 54 00:03:30,080 --> 00:03:32,600 Speaker 1: got a couple rewinds coming your way as well. This 55 00:03:32,720 --> 00:03:35,440 Speaker 1: theme of redemption is certainly the case the episode on 56 00:03:35,520 --> 00:03:38,240 Speaker 1: John's political efforts from the early seventies. In the end, 57 00:03:39,240 --> 00:03:42,320 Speaker 1: John's a shell of himself, but he's closer to redemption. 58 00:03:42,840 --> 00:03:46,200 Speaker 1: And spoiler alert. Even though John Lennon dies by the 59 00:03:46,240 --> 00:03:47,960 Speaker 1: end of the nineteen seventies, by the end of nineteen 60 00:03:48,000 --> 00:03:51,080 Speaker 1: eighty December eighth. In fact, by that date, John Lennon 61 00:03:51,120 --> 00:03:54,280 Speaker 1: is most certainly redeemed. He becomes what he was supposed 62 00:03:54,320 --> 00:03:56,600 Speaker 1: to become all along, which is a family man, a 63 00:03:56,640 --> 00:03:59,360 Speaker 1: family man who is expressing his love for his family 64 00:03:59,400 --> 00:04:03,240 Speaker 1: in his art. Personally and creatively. He's at peace with 65 00:04:03,360 --> 00:04:06,960 Speaker 1: himself finally. Now. Of course, John Lennon has always been 66 00:04:07,160 --> 00:04:12,080 Speaker 1: completely authentic, almost to a fault. He always expressed his 67 00:04:12,160 --> 00:04:14,560 Speaker 1: love of family, his love of Yoko in some ways 68 00:04:15,240 --> 00:04:18,800 Speaker 1: before the end of these seventies, his love of Sean 69 00:04:19,880 --> 00:04:24,679 Speaker 1: and Julian and his mother. But by the end of 70 00:04:24,720 --> 00:04:28,680 Speaker 1: the nineteen seventies he's really got it all clicking creatively. 71 00:04:29,560 --> 00:04:33,640 Speaker 1: Double Fantasy is an incredible record, and it's the realization 72 00:04:33,800 --> 00:04:37,479 Speaker 1: of John Lennon, I think, redeeming himself personally and creatively. 73 00:04:37,520 --> 00:04:42,160 Speaker 1: He's finally at peace with himself finally. These stories, as 74 00:04:42,240 --> 00:04:46,160 Speaker 1: dramatic and entertaining as they are, they're also cautionary tales 75 00:04:46,400 --> 00:04:50,279 Speaker 1: for me. They are anyways. They're big, glaring, blinking lights 76 00:04:50,440 --> 00:04:52,840 Speaker 1: warning us of what can happen if we let the 77 00:04:52,920 --> 00:04:55,280 Speaker 1: things in our lives that are important, if we let 78 00:04:55,279 --> 00:04:57,920 Speaker 1: our priorities slip, if we give into our base nature 79 00:04:57,960 --> 00:05:00,760 Speaker 1: to the darkness and ignore the light inside of all 80 00:05:00,800 --> 00:05:03,640 Speaker 1: of a sudden is propelling us, propelling us forward, propelling 81 00:05:03,720 --> 00:05:06,240 Speaker 1: us on our path. That's what I get out of 82 00:05:06,240 --> 00:05:08,520 Speaker 1: these stories when I'm researching them and i'm writing them. Anyways, 83 00:05:08,560 --> 00:05:10,039 Speaker 1: and I know you guys do as well, because I 84 00:05:10,120 --> 00:05:15,000 Speaker 1: hear it from you. But these stories, they're fading. We've 85 00:05:15,160 --> 00:05:18,080 Speaker 1: established here pretty much anyway. I think we've established that 86 00:05:18,279 --> 00:05:22,560 Speaker 1: rock and roll is dead? Where are the modern day 87 00:05:22,640 --> 00:05:25,719 Speaker 1: John Lennon's Where are the modern day Martin Scorsesees, for 88 00:05:25,760 --> 00:05:29,159 Speaker 1: that matter, the subject of last week's episode The Last Waltz. 89 00:05:29,480 --> 00:05:32,800 Speaker 1: Scorsese literally tried pushing himself toward death in service of 90 00:05:32,839 --> 00:05:35,720 Speaker 1: his art. That's what that whole episode was about. John 91 00:05:35,800 --> 00:05:39,320 Speaker 1: Lennon risk deportation to support the political causes that he 92 00:05:39,400 --> 00:05:43,440 Speaker 1: believed in and relevant to today. Anyways, John Lennon spent 93 00:05:43,520 --> 00:05:48,440 Speaker 1: a lot of money on the political causes that he supported, 94 00:05:48,839 --> 00:05:50,640 Speaker 1: which is a lot different than what we see celebrities 95 00:05:50,640 --> 00:05:52,440 Speaker 1: doing now. I don't want to retread in that water. 96 00:05:52,520 --> 00:05:56,080 Speaker 1: But anyways, both these guys, my point, Both these guys 97 00:05:56,360 --> 00:05:58,520 Speaker 1: when they were doing this were at the vanguard of 98 00:05:58,560 --> 00:06:01,320 Speaker 1: popular culture at the time. They weren't fringe artists Martin 99 00:06:01,360 --> 00:06:04,120 Speaker 1: Scorsese and John Lennon in the nineteen seventies. They were 100 00:06:04,120 --> 00:06:07,479 Speaker 1: making chart topping music and films and living like the 101 00:06:07,600 --> 00:06:10,839 Speaker 1: rock stars that they were born to be. And where 102 00:06:10,880 --> 00:06:13,760 Speaker 1: are the rock stars and the rock star artists and 103 00:06:13,880 --> 00:06:18,280 Speaker 1: entertainers who live in the wildest and freest ways imaginable? 104 00:06:18,320 --> 00:06:21,360 Speaker 1: Where are they today? Where are the wild, feral, true 105 00:06:21,440 --> 00:06:24,919 Speaker 1: rock and roll animals struggling to fit themselves into functioning 106 00:06:25,000 --> 00:06:28,799 Speaker 1: society while they create, who are always striving, always pushing 107 00:06:28,880 --> 00:06:32,359 Speaker 1: themselves to make the best art possible and ultimately be 108 00:06:32,400 --> 00:06:35,680 Speaker 1: the best versions of themselves possible. Where are they now? 109 00:06:36,400 --> 00:06:41,560 Speaker 1: Taylor Swift, Post Malone, Shaboozie, Kendrick Lamaro offense to any 110 00:06:41,600 --> 00:06:45,120 Speaker 1: of these artists, But by comparison to the musicians and 111 00:06:45,279 --> 00:06:49,880 Speaker 1: entertainers that we cover here in Disgraceland, most modern artists 112 00:06:49,920 --> 00:06:54,360 Speaker 1: live safe, normal lives. By comparison, I suppose we can 113 00:06:54,360 --> 00:06:57,480 Speaker 1: look at the insanity of hip hop, of modern hip hop. 114 00:06:57,520 --> 00:07:00,240 Speaker 1: I should say we could look at the modern hip 115 00:07:00,279 --> 00:07:04,400 Speaker 1: hop's connection to crime. But that behavior is so unoriginal 116 00:07:04,480 --> 00:07:06,640 Speaker 1: and predictable by now that it seems to me to 117 00:07:06,680 --> 00:07:09,240 Speaker 1: almost be like an act like a rite of passage. 118 00:07:09,840 --> 00:07:11,520 Speaker 1: The real ones do what they have to do on 119 00:07:11,560 --> 00:07:14,080 Speaker 1: the street level up and leave the street bullshit behind, 120 00:07:14,680 --> 00:07:18,200 Speaker 1: and that at least is interesting to me. See fifty cent, 121 00:07:18,280 --> 00:07:21,160 Speaker 1: for example, and Fiddy is an exactly modern hip hop 122 00:07:21,520 --> 00:07:25,080 Speaker 1: and Sean Combs's behavior notwithstanding this guy Diddy, He's an outlier. 123 00:07:25,080 --> 00:07:27,080 Speaker 1: And I'm not sure there's gonna be any redemption for Diddy. 124 00:07:27,560 --> 00:07:30,840 Speaker 1: If there is, it's gonna be a hell of a story. Anyways. 125 00:07:31,760 --> 00:07:35,480 Speaker 1: I think what I'm saying is this, in some weird way, 126 00:07:35,960 --> 00:07:39,080 Speaker 1: these John Lennon episodes in this poster that I'm designing 127 00:07:39,360 --> 00:07:41,840 Speaker 1: have caused me to realize something about Disgraceland that I 128 00:07:41,840 --> 00:07:46,320 Speaker 1: guess I always knew, but that I never articulated. With Disgraceland, 129 00:07:46,720 --> 00:07:49,280 Speaker 1: we're preserving rock and roll. Not in an academic way. 130 00:07:50,080 --> 00:07:53,440 Speaker 1: We're preserving rock and roll lore. Okay, rock and roll 131 00:07:53,520 --> 00:07:56,240 Speaker 1: is dead. It's dead on the charts, it's dead on 132 00:07:56,280 --> 00:08:00,200 Speaker 1: the airwaves, it's dead as a cultural force. Today's pop up, 133 00:08:00,680 --> 00:08:04,360 Speaker 1: today's country. By the way, what's the difference today's hip hop? 134 00:08:04,680 --> 00:08:08,120 Speaker 1: The genre doesn't really matter. It's all really just safe, 135 00:08:08,520 --> 00:08:13,160 Speaker 1: corporatized music for the masses. I'm not trying to be cynical. 136 00:08:13,280 --> 00:08:16,040 Speaker 1: I'm not, but that's what it is. It doesn't move 137 00:08:16,120 --> 00:08:21,600 Speaker 1: me in any way, hardly at all. It's corporatized music 138 00:08:21,720 --> 00:08:25,040 Speaker 1: for the masses. It's sad, but corporate America is what's 139 00:08:25,160 --> 00:08:28,720 Speaker 1: propelling us culturally. I can't believe I'm saying that, but 140 00:08:28,760 --> 00:08:32,560 Speaker 1: it's the truth. There's nothing subversive about any of it. 141 00:08:32,880 --> 00:08:36,600 Speaker 1: There's nothing compelling about any of it, and that's what's sad. 142 00:08:36,640 --> 00:08:39,199 Speaker 1: We don't need subversion for the sake of subversion. But 143 00:08:39,320 --> 00:08:42,840 Speaker 1: the beauty of subversive art is that it's compelling, and 144 00:08:42,880 --> 00:08:45,360 Speaker 1: it forces us to think, and it forces us to create. 145 00:08:45,400 --> 00:08:47,920 Speaker 1: As a culture, I don't see any of that right now. 146 00:08:48,160 --> 00:08:50,480 Speaker 1: The rock and roll animal does not exist in popular 147 00:08:50,520 --> 00:08:52,200 Speaker 1: culture as it once did, and I don't think it 148 00:08:52,240 --> 00:08:54,360 Speaker 1: ever will again. Where did you go, Jim Morrison? Our 149 00:08:54,480 --> 00:08:56,680 Speaker 1: nation turns its lonely eyes to you and Toto, Jimmy 150 00:08:56,679 --> 00:08:59,520 Speaker 1: Page and to David Bowie, into John Lennon and Iggy 151 00:08:59,520 --> 00:09:02,319 Speaker 1: Pop and Kurt Cobaine, and the list goes on and 152 00:09:02,360 --> 00:09:05,280 Speaker 1: on and on, but it stops somewhere around the mid 153 00:09:05,280 --> 00:09:08,720 Speaker 1: two thousands. So as I look at the beginning of 154 00:09:08,760 --> 00:09:12,240 Speaker 1: twenty twenty five, And as I look at the two 155 00:09:12,320 --> 00:09:16,000 Speaker 1: hundred and nine Disgraceland stories and counting that we have 156 00:09:16,080 --> 00:09:20,559 Speaker 1: in our archive, stories of real rock and roll spirit, 157 00:09:20,960 --> 00:09:25,600 Speaker 1: of real rock and roll animalism and redemption from both 158 00:09:25,679 --> 00:09:29,120 Speaker 1: literal rock stars and artists and actors and athletes who 159 00:09:29,360 --> 00:09:33,000 Speaker 1: behaved in rock and roll ways, what I'm realizing is 160 00:09:33,000 --> 00:09:35,839 Speaker 1: that we are quite literally creating a space where rock 161 00:09:35,880 --> 00:09:38,160 Speaker 1: and roll doesn't have to be dead, where rock and 162 00:09:38,240 --> 00:09:41,800 Speaker 1: roll lives at least through storytelling. And yeah, I mean, 163 00:09:41,840 --> 00:09:45,520 Speaker 1: come on, country, hip hop, classic country, classic hip hop, 164 00:09:45,720 --> 00:09:48,960 Speaker 1: classic jazz. You know what I'm saying, rock and roll spirit. Okay, 165 00:09:49,000 --> 00:09:52,440 Speaker 1: I'm not talking strictly about you know, five guys in 166 00:09:52,480 --> 00:09:57,280 Speaker 1: a band with guitars. Again, what I'm realizing is that 167 00:09:57,320 --> 00:09:59,760 Speaker 1: we are quite literally creating a space where rock and 168 00:09:59,800 --> 00:10:01,800 Speaker 1: roll doesn't have to be dead. And I'm using the 169 00:10:01,800 --> 00:10:06,080 Speaker 1: word we instead of I intentionally dis goes listen. We 170 00:10:06,120 --> 00:10:08,360 Speaker 1: are preserving rock and roll. It's not just me, it's 171 00:10:08,440 --> 00:10:11,440 Speaker 1: you guys as well. Some of my favorite emails that 172 00:10:11,480 --> 00:10:14,200 Speaker 1: I get from you guys are the ones where you 173 00:10:14,240 --> 00:10:17,319 Speaker 1: tell me about listening to Disgraceland with your family and friends, 174 00:10:18,080 --> 00:10:20,040 Speaker 1: or the ones that tell me that you listen to 175 00:10:20,080 --> 00:10:22,320 Speaker 1: the episode so that you can tell your brother or 176 00:10:22,320 --> 00:10:24,640 Speaker 1: your sister, or boyfriend or girlfriend or husband or wife 177 00:10:24,880 --> 00:10:27,400 Speaker 1: about the story that I just told you. This is 178 00:10:27,520 --> 00:10:30,319 Speaker 1: exactly what I did as a kid. I would read 179 00:10:30,400 --> 00:10:34,320 Speaker 1: Rolling Stone or some nictotious book or some fanzine that 180 00:10:34,360 --> 00:10:36,600 Speaker 1: I sent away for, or annoy the shit out of 181 00:10:36,600 --> 00:10:38,960 Speaker 1: my dad and his bandmates until they told me the 182 00:10:39,000 --> 00:10:41,240 Speaker 1: stories that I was looking to hear, and then I 183 00:10:41,280 --> 00:10:43,800 Speaker 1: would hang out with my friends and tell them these 184 00:10:43,800 --> 00:10:49,200 Speaker 1: wild stories myself. Starting Disgraceland was just formalizing that process, 185 00:10:49,280 --> 00:10:52,080 Speaker 1: adding some bells and whistles with sound and story structure, 186 00:10:52,280 --> 00:10:54,640 Speaker 1: and spreading the word widely to you guys beyond my 187 00:10:54,679 --> 00:10:57,920 Speaker 1: friend group. And you guys are spreading these stories beyond 188 00:10:57,920 --> 00:11:00,760 Speaker 1: my reach through the listening with your family and friends, 189 00:11:00,760 --> 00:11:02,920 Speaker 1: like I said, through the sharing of these stories on 190 00:11:03,080 --> 00:11:07,440 Speaker 1: social through the reviews. So we quite literally are preserving 191 00:11:07,520 --> 00:11:10,040 Speaker 1: rock and roll here in Disgraceland. That's what is occurring 192 00:11:10,040 --> 00:11:13,960 Speaker 1: to me here six years into this podcast. It's pretty incredible. 193 00:11:15,040 --> 00:11:18,120 Speaker 1: I talked about the word we, because, like I said, 194 00:11:18,360 --> 00:11:20,440 Speaker 1: we're in this together. I should also talk about the 195 00:11:20,440 --> 00:11:25,319 Speaker 1: word preserve. Preserve. When thinking about this, in my head, 196 00:11:26,520 --> 00:11:29,680 Speaker 1: I went to that song God Save rock and Roll 197 00:11:29,720 --> 00:11:31,600 Speaker 1: by Kid Rock and No Shade It on rob But 198 00:11:31,679 --> 00:11:34,920 Speaker 1: saving rock and roll. Saving rock and roll isn't what 199 00:11:35,000 --> 00:11:37,760 Speaker 1: this is about. There is no saving rock and roll. 200 00:11:37,840 --> 00:11:41,480 Speaker 1: It's gone. But we can preserve it. We can pass 201 00:11:41,520 --> 00:11:45,440 Speaker 1: on these incredible stories of what once was and what 202 00:11:45,679 --> 00:11:49,320 Speaker 1: likely will never be again. It's not a secret, but 203 00:11:49,400 --> 00:11:52,840 Speaker 1: it kind of is. When we tell these stories, people 204 00:11:52,880 --> 00:11:55,800 Speaker 1: look at us in disbelief. Did you know John Lennon 205 00:11:55,880 --> 00:11:57,640 Speaker 1: signed over the royalties from one of his songs to 206 00:11:57,679 --> 00:12:00,800 Speaker 1: the IRA? No shit, Seriously, it happened. I heard it 207 00:12:00,840 --> 00:12:04,800 Speaker 1: on Disgraceland. These unbelievable stories of rock and roll, animalism 208 00:12:04,880 --> 00:12:08,280 Speaker 1: and redemption are worth preserving for that alone, but also because, 209 00:12:08,280 --> 00:12:10,600 Speaker 1: like I said at the top, they're not just entertaining. 210 00:12:11,040 --> 00:12:14,080 Speaker 1: They're cautionary tales. And there's stories that bind us, stories 211 00:12:14,080 --> 00:12:17,680 Speaker 1: that have formed us. Because we're all rock and roll 212 00:12:17,760 --> 00:12:21,720 Speaker 1: in our hearts. These are stories that are preserving a 213 00:12:21,720 --> 00:12:24,320 Speaker 1: little bit of who we are. That's how I'm seeing it. Anyways, 214 00:12:25,040 --> 00:12:27,120 Speaker 1: I don't know it's that time of year, or I 215 00:12:27,120 --> 00:12:30,320 Speaker 1: don't know what's going on Christmas. As you can see 216 00:12:30,520 --> 00:12:33,120 Speaker 1: has got me in a reflective mood. Maybe it's because 217 00:12:33,120 --> 00:12:34,360 Speaker 1: we're coming up on the end of the year and 218 00:12:34,360 --> 00:12:37,000 Speaker 1: that's just my nature. I'm grateful to be here with 219 00:12:37,040 --> 00:12:39,000 Speaker 1: you guys in this space. I'm grateful you're here with me, 220 00:12:39,160 --> 00:12:41,320 Speaker 1: and I'm stoked about the holidays.

Shame of Gown embodies it as 224 00:12:49,360 --> 00:12:54,440 Speaker 1: much as anyone before or Since this is a Christmas episode, 225 00:12:54,679 --> 00:12:56,160 Speaker 1: it's one of a few that we have coming your 226 00:12:56,160 --> 00:12:59,120 Speaker 1: way in December.

Fun fact about 265 00:14:47,760 --> 00:14:50,240 Speaker 1: these next two Lenin episodes, though, when I wrote them, 266 00:14:50,600 --> 00:14:54,480 Speaker 1: I was totally in a flow state, head down, just 267 00:14:54,720 --> 00:14:57,280 Speaker 1: blast furnacing words out of the old brain hole. And 268 00:14:57,320 --> 00:15:00,120 Speaker 1: when I finished and I looked up, I did a 269 00:15:00,160 --> 00:15:03,240 Speaker 1: word count and I was like, holy fuck, what have 270 00:15:03,360 --> 00:15:07,120 Speaker 1: I done? It was so long what I had written, 271 00:15:07,960 --> 00:15:10,320 Speaker 1: and it occurred to me, Hey, dummy, just make it 272 00:15:10,360 --> 00:15:12,440 Speaker 1: a two part episode.

In 273 00:15:12,480 --> 00:15:16,600 Speaker 1: the first two part Disgraceland episode was born Anyway, that's 274 00:15:16,680 --> 00:15:19,280 Speaker 1: coming your way next in the feed, and as a reminder, 275 00:15:19,760 --> 00:15:21,720 Speaker 1: if you happen to be listening to this bonus episode 276 00:15:21,760 --> 00:15:24,320 Speaker 1: way off in the future, not during its original time 277 00:15:24,360 --> 00:15:26,440 Speaker 1: of release.

The rabbit is getting deeper and deeper and deeper. 337 00:19:02,920 --> 00:19:06,160 Speaker 1: Every voicemail that I've received in the last week has 338 00:19:06,200 --> 00:19:10,000 Speaker 1: been about JFK. Not everyone, but most of them. And 339 00:19:10,040 --> 00:19:13,600 Speaker 1: we received not a one voicemail on who your favorite 340 00:19:13,600 --> 00:19:18,359 Speaker 1: Beatle is, but we did receive a ton of incoming 341 00:19:18,680 --> 00:19:22,640 Speaker 1: dms on the Beatle topic, and I'm going to read 342 00:19:22,640 --> 00:19:26,399 Speaker 1: some of those now. I'm also going to remind you 343 00:19:26,400 --> 00:19:28,560 Speaker 1: guys to go to our Instagram at Disgrace and Pod 344 00:19:28,600 --> 00:19:33,119 Speaker 1: and check out the recent the conversation that's developed around 345 00:19:33,160 --> 00:19:36,040 Speaker 1: the recent John Lennon reel that we dropped this past 346 00:19:36,080 --> 00:19:39,199 Speaker 1: Tuesday to coincide with the episode release. It is wild. 347 00:19:40,280 --> 00:19:41,639 Speaker 1: I'm not going to really, I'm not going to read 348 00:19:41,680 --> 00:19:43,959 Speaker 1: those comments, but you can dive in there. People are 349 00:19:43,960 --> 00:19:46,639 Speaker 1: pretty worked up over it. We got more lending content 350 00:19:46,680 --> 00:19:48,960 Speaker 1: coming about the end of the week. But let's get 351 00:19:48,960 --> 00:19:52,520 Speaker 1: to the question of which Beetle had the greatest solo career. 352 00:19:52,840 --> 00:19:55,679 Speaker 1: All right, dumb Rolling Stone on Instagram. If you're not 353 00:19:55,680 --> 00:19:58,680 Speaker 1: following dumb Rolling Stone you should be. I think it's 354 00:19:58,760 --> 00:20:02,040 Speaker 1: at e F and Good Music. He posts good content 355 00:20:02,080 --> 00:20:04,359 Speaker 1: on there. I like this kid a lot. He's always 356 00:20:04,359 --> 00:20:07,119 Speaker 1: got something thoughtful to say. He says here on the 357 00:20:07,240 --> 00:20:10,960 Speaker 1: question of which Beatle, he writes John's inner life and 358 00:20:11,040 --> 00:20:14,080 Speaker 1: emotional art can be summarized in three songs, Run for 359 00:20:14,119 --> 00:20:18,240 Speaker 1: Your Life, Jealous Guy, and Woman. And I think that's 360 00:20:19,119 --> 00:20:24,000 Speaker 1: I bring this up not because dumb rolling Stone is 361 00:20:24,000 --> 00:20:26,919 Speaker 1: sitting here going like yo, John's John's my favorite solo 362 00:20:26,920 --> 00:20:31,000 Speaker 1: Beatle artist, but because I really like the framing and 363 00:20:31,040 --> 00:20:34,480 Speaker 1: I like what it says about my choice here. Okay, 364 00:20:34,600 --> 00:20:37,080 Speaker 1: so run for your Life. You've got lenin In in 365 00:20:37,400 --> 00:20:41,840 Speaker 1: his Beatles Beatles Days talking about abusing a woman. Really, 366 00:20:43,000 --> 00:20:46,760 Speaker 1: I mean really, it's that's what it is. Jealous Guy, 367 00:20:46,920 --> 00:20:50,600 Speaker 1: which is the sort of emotional turmoil of the Lost 368 00:20:50,640 --> 00:20:54,160 Speaker 1: Weekend era lenin In the in the early to mid seventies. 369 00:20:54,600 --> 00:20:58,720 Speaker 1: And then Woman, which is his love for Yoko, which 370 00:20:58,760 --> 00:21:01,560 Speaker 1: is an imperfect love, of course, which is in part 371 00:21:01,600 --> 00:21:05,879 Speaker 1: what makes it so damn compelling and keeps us glued 372 00:21:05,920 --> 00:21:10,560 Speaker 1: to it now some almost fifty years later. And I 373 00:21:10,640 --> 00:21:14,240 Speaker 1: say this because if you asked me the question of 374 00:21:14,480 --> 00:21:20,480 Speaker 1: which Beatle had created my favorite body of solo work, 375 00:21:20,760 --> 00:21:23,040 Speaker 1: if you asked me this question last year, I probably 376 00:21:23,040 --> 00:21:24,720 Speaker 1: would have said George. In fact, I think we did 377 00:21:24,760 --> 00:21:27,240 Speaker 1: talk about this in the after party last year, I 378 00:21:27,280 --> 00:21:31,040 Speaker 1: probably would have said George. If you asked me five 379 00:21:31,119 --> 00:21:34,480 Speaker 1: years prior to that, I definitely would have said Paul. 380 00:21:34,680 --> 00:21:39,040 Speaker 1: For my wife's thirtieth birthday, I hired a band, my 381 00:21:39,080 --> 00:21:42,880 Speaker 1: friend Korn's band, and I paid them to learn and 382 00:21:42,920 --> 00:21:47,080 Speaker 1: play Paul McCartney's Ram album from start to finish at 383 00:21:47,080 --> 00:21:51,000 Speaker 1: my wife's thirtieth birthday party. And it was pretty damn awesome. 384 00:21:51,520 --> 00:21:55,000 Speaker 1: But that speaks to the level of my Paul McCartney's 385 00:21:55,000 --> 00:21:57,280 Speaker 1: solo love and hers, I should say more than mine. 386 00:21:57,800 --> 00:22:00,239 Speaker 1: But yeah, I love Paul solo and was obsessed with 387 00:22:00,240 --> 00:22:04,359 Speaker 1: Paul solo and wings about five ten years ago. And 388 00:22:04,400 --> 00:22:06,879 Speaker 1: prior to that, I'm not embarrassed to say I had 389 00:22:06,920 --> 00:22:09,560 Speaker 1: a solo ringo phase. And prior to that, of course, 390 00:22:09,560 --> 00:22:12,560 Speaker 1: it was John. And now I'm right back with John. Okay, 391 00:22:12,680 --> 00:22:14,800 Speaker 1: I don't know how it happened, but it happened. And 392 00:22:14,880 --> 00:22:17,040 Speaker 1: I think I vibe on John's solo work more than 393 00:22:17,040 --> 00:22:19,800 Speaker 1: I vibe on any of the other Beatles. And you know, 394 00:22:20,760 --> 00:22:24,520 Speaker 1: thumb rolling Stone here, help me figure that out. Okay. 395 00:22:24,600 --> 00:22:28,439 Speaker 1: At a boy James Underscore on Instagram, rights George, George, George. 396 00:22:28,440 --> 00:22:31,639 Speaker 1: The only answer is George guys, A lot of George 397 00:22:31,680 --> 00:22:37,440 Speaker 1: love almost not almost, definitely more George Harrison choices here 398 00:22:38,160 --> 00:22:40,600 Speaker 1: than anyone else except on X. I did a poll 399 00:22:40,680 --> 00:22:43,760 Speaker 1: on X and Paul came out in the number one 400 00:22:43,800 --> 00:22:48,439 Speaker 1: spot with George and second, I believe I need to 401 00:22:48,480 --> 00:22:50,639 Speaker 1: I'll check that.

Seeing 421 00:23:52,200 --> 00:23:55,280 Speaker 1: him live playing is like looking at John Lennon alive. 422 00:23:55,720 --> 00:23:58,240 Speaker 1: He looks like John so much it's incredible. I felt 423 00:23:58,240 --> 00:24:00,840 Speaker 1: I was seeing a ghost, very talented and disturbed man. 424 00:24:00,840 --> 00:24:03,400 Speaker 1: At times. You can see Yoko played a number on him. 425 00:24:03,760 --> 00:24:06,560 Speaker 1: He definitely grew up hearing that sound at home. He's 426 00:24:06,560 --> 00:24:10,720 Speaker 1: weirded out by his mother. Okay, Cynthia, I like the 427 00:24:10,760 --> 00:24:12,480 Speaker 1: idea that you can just roll down to your local 428 00:24:12,520 --> 00:24:15,720 Speaker 1: theater and check out as Sean Lennon set.

Hit me up on email. Get this one 480 00:27:04,000 --> 00:27:07,720 Speaker 1: here from Gemma Layton or lighton, Hi Jake. I always 481 00:27:07,760 --> 00:27:10,320 Speaker 1: try to be objective when answering this question of best 482 00:27:10,320 --> 00:27:13,000 Speaker 1: soulo Beatle, and it's something I could debate for hours, 483 00:27:13,040 --> 00:27:15,520 Speaker 1: but as I've got limited time, I'm just gonna say 484 00:27:15,560 --> 00:27:18,320 Speaker 1: this in the simplest way. I know how. John Lennon 485 00:27:18,440 --> 00:27:21,960 Speaker 1: songs just mean more. At least that's what I think. 486 00:27:22,160 --> 00:27:26,560 Speaker 1: There's more emotion, a message, substance, and purpose. They're not 487 00:27:26,640 --> 00:27:29,160 Speaker 1: just silly love songs. I think it's a lot easier 488 00:27:29,160 --> 00:27:31,480 Speaker 1: to write a love song than a protest one. And 489 00:27:31,520 --> 00:27:34,080 Speaker 1: there's an argument there for George dark Horse indeed, but 490 00:27:34,480 --> 00:27:36,840 Speaker 1: Lennon gets my vote. I wish I had the time 491 00:27:36,840 --> 00:27:39,440 Speaker 1: to go deeper, but it'd be like reading an essay. 492 00:27:39,560 --> 00:27:42,120 Speaker 1: Love the show, keep on keeping on from Gemma. Gemma 493 00:27:42,240 --> 00:27:46,479 Speaker 1: love the email. Like the structure of it, pretty sound, 494 00:27:46,119 --> 00:27:51,240 Speaker 1: I like the thesis. I even like the way you 495 00:27:51,320 --> 00:27:54,040 Speaker 1: laid it out a lot of great spacing in this email. 496 00:27:54,080 --> 00:27:56,000 Speaker 1: You guys can't see it, but I'm telling you Gemma's email, 497 00:27:56,720 --> 00:27:59,399 Speaker 1: Che's kiss. You're gonna get a lot of shit here 498 00:27:59,480 --> 00:28:04,159 Speaker 1: from George listeners, I think. But yeah, I'm with you. 499 00:28:04,520 --> 00:28:07,879 Speaker 1: I am. I agree, I agree. I love the McCartney stuff, 500 00:28:07,920 --> 00:28:11,040 Speaker 1: I really do. But you know, the McCartney stuff. The 501 00:28:11,080 --> 00:28:13,600 Speaker 1: reason I love the McCartney stuff is the weirdness of it. 502 00:28:14,480 --> 00:28:17,840 Speaker 1: McCartney's a weird motherfucker, even back in the Beatles. I 503 00:28:17,960 --> 00:28:20,280 Speaker 1: said this before, why don't we do it in the road? 504 00:28:21,080 --> 00:28:22,560 Speaker 1: That song came on the other day, were driving with 505 00:28:22,600 --> 00:28:24,920 Speaker 1: our kids and my wife changed the channel, that changed 506 00:28:25,000 --> 00:28:27,200 Speaker 1: the song, skipped the song, I should say. And I 507 00:28:27,280 --> 00:28:29,480 Speaker 1: looked at her like, what are you doing? And she 508 00:28:29,600 --> 00:28:32,520 Speaker 1: just gave me a look like you know, and she's right. 509 00:28:33,000 --> 00:28:35,520 Speaker 1: I knew we didn't have to say it. I didn't 510 00:28:35,520 --> 00:28:37,200 Speaker 1: want to explain to my ten year old what Paul 511 00:28:37,280 --> 00:28:40,280 Speaker 1: McCartney was talking about, what it was that he was 512 00:28:40,360 --> 00:28:44,040 Speaker 1: trying to do in the road. He's a fucking weirdo. 513 00:28:44,320 --> 00:28:48,560 Speaker 1: Can I say, ram is weird? It's really weird. The 514 00:28:48,680 --> 00:28:52,840 Speaker 1: wingshit is weird anyhow. But to Jema's point, do those 515 00:28:52,880 --> 00:28:55,880 Speaker 1: songs mean as much as John's. I go for the 516 00:28:55,960 --> 00:28:59,880 Speaker 1: lenon authenticity more than anything I heard. There's songs I heard. 517 00:29:00,000 --> 00:29:01,400 Speaker 1: First time I heard Jealous Guy as a kid, I 518 00:29:01,440 --> 00:29:03,720 Speaker 1: think I started crying. I'm not trying to be a 519 00:29:03,720 --> 00:29:06,800 Speaker 1: whiss about it, but that's the truth.

It has to 531 00:29:37,920 --> 00:29:39,240 Speaker 1: do a little bit about what we were talking about 532 00:29:39,240 --> 00:29:41,040 Speaker 1: in the B block here, all right. Unless it's not 533 00:29:41,080 --> 00:29:44,160 Speaker 1: about the Beatles, it's less about that. So Hannah goes 534 00:29:44,200 --> 00:29:47,880 Speaker 1: on to say, here, listen longtime listener here, and first 535 00:29:48,120 --> 00:29:50,000 Speaker 1: I have to say thank you for being a steady, 536 00:29:50,040 --> 00:29:52,880 Speaker 1: calming voice through these chaotic years. You get this rare 537 00:29:52,960 --> 00:29:55,040 Speaker 1: knack for delivering even the most bizarre stories with a 538 00:29:55,120 --> 00:29:58,120 Speaker 1: tone that sues no matter how dark the content. I 539 00:29:58,280 --> 00:30:01,560 Speaker 1: just finished listening to the eighty six Mets episode Friday, 540 00:30:01,600 --> 00:30:04,360 Speaker 1: November eighth, and I was struck by words that were 541 00:30:04,400 --> 00:30:08,480 Speaker 1: haunting yet inspiring. Quote the best this country has always 542 00:30:08,520 --> 00:30:12,400 Speaker 1: had to offer is its people who unquote. Today, those 543 00:30:12,440 --> 00:30:14,920 Speaker 1: words resonated more than ever as I, along with my 544 00:30:15,000 --> 00:30:17,520 Speaker 1: country in the world, try to process everything that's unfolded 545 00:30:17,600 --> 00:30:20,960 Speaker 1: in recent days, wondering what lies ahead. I shared those 546 00:30:21,040 --> 00:30:24,480 Speaker 1: lines from the episode with family and friends, even social media, 547 00:30:24,480 --> 00:30:27,880 Speaker 1: and uncommon move for someone who's typically a quiet voice online. 548 00:30:28,480 --> 00:30:30,400 Speaker 1: I'm clearly moved by your words, and I wanted to 549 00:30:30,440 --> 00:30:33,040 Speaker 1: take a moment to express my appreciation. Thank you not 550 00:30:33,280 --> 00:30:35,560 Speaker 1: just to you, but to the entire production team and 551 00:30:35,680 --> 00:30:38,239 Speaker 1: your families who support this work. The effort you put 552 00:30:38,280 --> 00:30:41,320 Speaker 1: into creating such an engaging and thoughtful show means a lot. 553 00:30:41,760 --> 00:30:43,960 Speaker 1: Thank you for being real and relatable. Thank you for 554 00:30:44,040 --> 00:30:46,680 Speaker 1: giving my family something we can bond over as we 555 00:30:46,760 --> 00:30:50,400 Speaker 1: all live and breathe for sports history and music. That's 556 00:30:50,440 --> 00:30:53,960 Speaker 1: from Hannah Victoria, and that speaks directly to the point 557 00:30:54,000 --> 00:30:56,680 Speaker 1: I was trying to make earlier, the whole sharing these stories, 558 00:30:56,760 --> 00:30:59,040 Speaker 1: preserving these stories as we go, sharing them with our 559 00:30:59,040 --> 00:31:02,720 Speaker 1: family and our friends. I've received a couple of these emails. 560 00:31:03,360 --> 00:31:04,920 Speaker 1: I've received a lot of them throughout the year, but 561 00:31:05,000 --> 00:31:07,880 Speaker 1: a couple of them around this Mets episode in particular. 562 00:31:08,320 --> 00:31:11,720 Speaker 1: And but Hannah really laid it out there in a 563 00:31:11,760 --> 00:31:14,400 Speaker 1: way that they hit me and made me very grateful 564 00:31:15,360 --> 00:31:17,480 Speaker 1: for this whole space. Like I said, that we've created here, 565 00:31:18,000 --> 00:31:20,120 Speaker 1: so guys, you can get at me any way you want. 566 00:31:20,200 --> 00:31:23,120 Speaker 1: Disgracelam pod on the socials, Like I said, Disgracelandpod at 567 00:31:23,160 --> 00:31:26,240 Speaker 1: gmail dot com. That's the email. You know about the reviews. 568 00:31:26,280 --> 00:31:28,480 Speaker 1: You leave a review, I read it here on the air, 569 00:31:29,200 --> 00:31:31,240 Speaker 1: you get in touch with me and I get you 570 00:31:31,320 --> 00:31:33,960 Speaker 1: some merch out in the mail.

Like many others, I 573 00:31:41,320 --> 00:31:44,080 Speaker 1: can't remember exactly who told me about Disgraceland. I think 574 00:31:44,120 --> 00:31:45,800 Speaker 1: it might have been the ladies of my favorite murder. 575 00:31:45,840 --> 00:31:47,720 Speaker 1: But if you aren't listening to them, you should be. 576 00:31:48,360 --> 00:31:50,680 Speaker 1: My father used to warn me that the people I 577 00:31:50,680 --> 00:31:53,800 Speaker 1: idolized in entertainment were not what I thought they were. 578 00:31:54,120 --> 00:31:56,680 Speaker 1: I scoffed at him in the worst teenage way. It 579 00:31:56,800 --> 00:31:59,440 Speaker 1: turns out he was right, and Jake delivers it all 580 00:31:59,480 --> 00:32:01,880 Speaker 1: in the most activating a way, always a conversation starter. 581 00:32:02,160 --> 00:32:04,640 Speaker 1: I have told so many about this incredible show. If 582 00:32:04,680 --> 00:32:07,920 Speaker 1: I could leave ten stars, I would. Sharon, you're the best. 583 00:32:08,040 --> 00:32:11,240 Speaker 1: I appreciate you getting touch disgracelampod at gmail dot com 584 00:32:11,760 --> 00:32:13,880 Speaker 1: or hit me up on the socials at disgrace Lampod. 585 00:32:13,960 --> 00:32:16,360 Speaker 1: I appreciate the review.

In response to 592 00:32:36,560 --> 00:32:40,400 Speaker 1: last week's rewind episode on David Bowie, Obhesh writs and 593 00:32:40,520 --> 00:32:44,280 Speaker 1: I once owned the following by Alistair Crawley Book four 594 00:32:44,720 --> 00:32:47,719 Speaker 1: seven seven seven and liber vial A Gase. I think 595 00:32:47,760 --> 00:32:50,080 Speaker 1: I'm saying that right. I actually also had a CD 596 00:32:50,280 --> 00:32:52,520 Speaker 1: version of the Book of the Law. Call me curious 597 00:32:52,560 --> 00:32:54,600 Speaker 1: and a bit of a seeker. I suppose all of 598 00:32:54,640 --> 00:32:57,040 Speaker 1: the above items wound up in a donation pile and 599 00:32:57,160 --> 00:32:59,479 Speaker 1: the alley behind my house. Was it because I got 600 00:32:59,520 --> 00:33:02,280 Speaker 1: freaked up some dark and powerful force. Nope, it was 601 00:33:02,360 --> 00:33:04,520 Speaker 1: due to boredom. I found Crowley to be the most 602 00:33:04,560 --> 00:33:08,240 Speaker 1: self involved, boring pseudo intellectual that I ever encountered. What 603 00:33:08,400 --> 00:33:11,560 Speaker 1: a waste of money and time. Ohesh. I have to 604 00:33:11,640 --> 00:33:14,040 Speaker 1: agree with you there. For those of you who are 605 00:33:14,040 --> 00:33:16,240 Speaker 1: wondering why we're talking about Alistair Crowley in relation to 606 00:33:16,560 --> 00:33:20,520 Speaker 1: David Bowie, it's because David Bowie believed in this occult. 607 00:33:20,960 --> 00:33:23,120 Speaker 1: I'm blanking on the name of it right now. It's 608 00:33:23,240 --> 00:33:25,000 Speaker 1: right on the tip of my tongue. I think it 609 00:33:25,080 --> 00:33:28,600 Speaker 1: was called the Order something like that. And Crowley was 610 00:33:28,680 --> 00:33:33,200 Speaker 1: part of this sort of early twentieth century the guy 611 00:33:33,240 --> 00:33:36,440 Speaker 1: who wrote Sherlock Holmes was part of this. A couple 612 00:33:36,560 --> 00:33:40,080 Speaker 1: other notable folks, mainly over in England. They believed in 613 00:33:40,200 --> 00:33:43,560 Speaker 1: dark power in the occult they had a bunch of meetings, 614 00:33:43,560 --> 00:33:45,080 Speaker 1: they wrote a bunch of books. They they did a 615 00:33:45,120 --> 00:33:48,200 Speaker 1: bunch of cocaine way before people did cocaine, or a 616 00:33:48,240 --> 00:33:51,800 Speaker 1: lot of people did cocaine, I should say. And I 617 00:33:52,160 --> 00:33:57,520 Speaker 1: have been exposed to these occultists through rock and roll, 618 00:33:57,960 --> 00:34:00,440 Speaker 1: through David Bowie, like I said, through while we get 619 00:34:00,440 --> 00:34:02,600 Speaker 1: into this in the led Zeppelin episode as well, because 620 00:34:02,680 --> 00:34:06,840 Speaker 1: Jimmy Page was deeply into this through Jim Morrison as well. 621 00:34:07,680 --> 00:34:13,439 Speaker 1: And to Old Pasha's point here, they're pseudo intellectuals. It's 622 00:34:13,880 --> 00:34:16,759 Speaker 1: it's a bunch of bullshit. Mainly, I think what they 623 00:34:16,800 --> 00:34:19,400 Speaker 1: were doing was actually creating a permissive structure for themselves 624 00:34:19,440 --> 00:34:23,040 Speaker 1: to behave like complete fucking animals and just do whatever 625 00:34:23,040 --> 00:34:25,279 Speaker 1: the hell they wanted. That's that's what I get out 626 00:34:25,320 --> 00:34:28,480 Speaker 1: of it. So o Past, you're right on point. I 627 00:34:28,520 --> 00:34:31,200 Speaker 1: appreciate the comment.
